Episode 103: Six Flags Daycare, Chinese Weather Rods, & The Start of The Mississippi River

[00:00:00] Hey everybody, it's me Kathleen Madigan, welcome to Madigan's Pubcast.

[00:00:12] You grab yourself a drink, pull up a bar stool, let's talk about what's been going on.

[00:00:23] Turrites!

[00:00:24] It's episode 103, isn't that crazy?

[00:00:28] Um, because I have to do some press for where?

[00:00:34] Ithaca?

[00:00:35] Rochester?

[00:00:36] Um, I forget what else is on there.

[00:00:39] But I have to talk to the people of the press.

[00:00:41] But first of all, turrites.

[00:00:45] What am I drinking?

[00:00:46] This is a Bemidji beer.

[00:00:48] Where's Bemidji?

[00:00:49] Minnesota.

[00:00:50] And if you look on a map, you see Bemidji and then there's a thing called Red River

[00:00:55] or something and that it's just white.

[00:00:57] And I asked my friends who live there, does that mean snow?

[00:01:01] Like a valley or something?

[00:01:04] There's only like one more big city.

[00:01:05] Anyway, I went to Minnesota.

[00:01:07] I thought, whoa, the light just came on.

[00:01:09] How great.

[00:01:10] I always wanted to go, especially because their hockey team is called the Wild.

[00:01:14] I've always wanted to go into the wild in Minnesota and I had a wonderful time.

[00:01:19] There are really 10,000 lakes.

[00:01:20] Really?

[00:01:21] Yeah, they're not lying.

[00:01:22] I did not see them all.

[00:01:23] I saw, um, probably, well a lot.

[00:01:28] Some of them are on Golden Pondie, you know, I'll say that as a verb on, like the movie

[00:01:34] on Golden Pond.

[00:01:36] You never saw it?

[00:01:37] No.

[00:01:38] Well, it's boring.

[00:01:40] But I don't mean they're like to worry.

[00:01:42] I mean, it's just very quiet, very stayed like pontoon boaty.

[00:01:47] Not really, which is great for fishing.

[00:01:50] And I caught a lot of fish, a lot of pike.

[00:01:52] I'm not a fan of catching pike.

[00:01:54] They have giant teeth.

[00:01:55] Some of their teeth are actually bigger than mine and way sharper, way sharper.

[00:02:01] I do have photos.

[00:02:02] I will post a picture of me and an enormous pike that I don't know how it didn't bite

[00:02:07] the, because I mean, dad said it's amazing.

[00:02:09] You got it in the boat because usually their teeth, they snapped the line.

[00:02:12] Yep.

[00:02:13] Yeah, it's like a gar.

[00:02:15] You gotta have a lead lead.

[00:02:17] It's very complicated if you don't fish.

[00:02:18] It's very boring if you don't fish, but if you fish.

[00:02:21] Yeah, it's wonderful.

[00:02:22] So then there were so many fun little dive bars up there.

[00:02:25] They still have pull tabs.

[00:02:27] Do you guys remember what pull tabs are?

[00:02:30] It's paper gambling.

[00:02:32] It's like you open a thing and you got to get three that match in a certain

[00:02:36] way. There are a dollar or their $2 are in the bars and you think it's not addictive.

[00:02:40] And the next thing you know, you're sitting in a pile of trash.

[00:02:43] It's very addictive, but it's certainly fun.

[00:02:46] The Nebraska game was on and, you know, good beer.

[00:02:51] And yeah, this is, um, this is my Paul Bunyan in the blue ox.

[00:02:57] I wanted to stop like 10 times even that.

[00:02:59] I don't know.

[00:03:00] I just didn't stop to get my picture with Paul next time.

[00:03:03] But my friends have a great little cabin on, um, it's actually better than a cabin,

[00:03:07] but that's what they call it.

[00:03:08] Um, little man trap Lake, little man trap.

[00:03:13] I know, but in that one's bigger than some of the ones I saw quite not

[00:03:17] quite as big as the other, but it's very peaceful.

[00:03:19] It could lull you into drinking a lot on a pontoon boat and nothing.

[00:03:27] Just fishing the day away and no, there's not enough people up there to, uh,

[00:03:33] I don't know.

[00:03:33] There's just the right amount of people like for the rural bar, which by the way,

[00:03:38] you should go on my Instagram and look at the picture of the Zamboni on top

[00:03:41] of the pool table.

[00:03:42] It's a rumba on top of the pool table.

[00:03:45] So way to go Minnesota.

[00:03:47] I feel like I finally got out in your wild.

[00:03:51] I was at spikes.

[00:03:52] You can go online and check out spikes.

[00:03:54] It's a great little bar off the side of the road.

[00:03:56] Yeah.

[00:03:57] And the owner is spike.

[00:03:59] And yeah, spike is really, she's really something else.

[00:04:02] And, um, I would recommend the pizza and the cheese curds.

[00:04:06] Yeah, I have to eat salad for like a year to get out of that Minnesota.

[00:04:10] I'm going to have to just eat salad and peppers because they have,

[00:04:14] there's so many good things, but they're fried.

[00:04:17] Yeah.

[00:04:18] The cheese curds, the Y.

[00:04:19] Yeah, it's all most of it's fried, but the poll tabs were in town.

[00:04:26] Town was park ridges.

[00:04:28] It was the Royal bar.

[00:04:30] Um, but then I saw him other places.

[00:04:33] I forgot about him.

[00:04:34] I haven't seen him since I was a kid.

[00:04:36] So I don't know where they went.

[00:04:37] I don't even know where I saw him originally.

[00:04:39] I don't, I don't think in Missouri, maybe Illinois.

[00:04:43] It's definitely a thing in Minnesota.

[00:04:45] There's a lady running the pull tab thing.

[00:04:47] You know, it's not a machine.

[00:04:48] No, you have to go ask her for those and she expects a tip if you win.

[00:04:52] Like she said some guy won $800 and didn't tip, didn't tip anything.

[00:04:56] She was still very angry about it.

[00:04:58] I'm like, well, that is kind of an asshole move, but you should at least give her

[00:05:01] $20.

[00:05:01] I would probably more, but, um, so that's it.

[00:05:05] Minnesota.

[00:05:06] Now it's back to work.

[00:05:12] Well, I'll tell you where I'm going at the end.

[00:05:13] What are we tasting?

[00:05:14] I'm very excited.

[00:05:15] Lay's every time I see the truck go by, I'm like, there's my chips.

[00:05:20] I know it's not, but look, they've made a cheeto flavored.

[00:05:23] Oh my God.

[00:05:24] You're combining two of my favorite things.

[00:05:27] I don't know.

[00:05:28] I'm, I think before I eat this, I'm going to say leave well enough alone.

[00:05:36] Did they make, they must make cheetos.

[00:05:38] You can't just steal that flavor.

[00:05:43] Yeah.

[00:05:46] No, they're good.

[00:05:49] I like them.

[00:05:51] The cheeto stuff overrides some of the salt, which I'm not a fan of that.

[00:05:55] I'd like to taste the salt.

[00:05:59] I give these a B plus.

[00:06:01] Something different.

[00:06:03] Yes.

[00:06:04] Get them for labor.

[00:06:07] I'm saving these for the good.

[00:06:09] Welcome over and eat them all or my dad, but then he'll go, what's this orange

[00:06:14] shit on my potato chips?

[00:06:16] Listen to heart attack, Jack.

[00:06:18] How about you put the chips down?

[00:06:19] Nope.

[00:06:23] Cause they're getting old.

[00:06:24] He was in the drive through at McDonald's.

[00:06:27] First of all, he shouldn't be getting an egg McMuffin.

[00:06:30] Let's work on that.

[00:06:31] The healthy eating jackalope.

[00:06:33] Nope.

[00:06:33] Nope.

[00:06:34] And he's ordering and he says to me, he has the lady on the thing.

[00:06:38] What's that thing with Brad on the outside and bacon?

[00:06:43] I'm like a bacon egg and cheese biscuit.

[00:06:45] I feel like I'm on a fucked up game show.

[00:06:47] Egg McMuffin with bacon.

[00:06:49] Do egg McMuffins have bacon?

[00:06:51] I don't eat them.

[00:06:51] I don't know.

[00:06:53] Ham.

[00:06:55] Well, I told him the order is the wrong thing.

[00:06:57] What are we trying next?

[00:06:58] Ruffles.

[00:07:00] Second favorite, spicy dill pickle.

[00:07:02] Dill is really, dill should realize that this is their heyday

[00:07:07] because it's in fucking everything out.

[00:07:12] Oh no.

[00:07:13] Oh my God.

[00:07:15] No.

[00:07:16] No, no, no, no, no.

[00:07:20] You there's a way you could eat five of those.

[00:07:22] Oh my God.

[00:07:23] Too much dill ruffles pull back a little bit.

[00:07:28] God, my Bemidji beer though is really good.

[00:07:32] I didn't see much wildlife in Minnesota and I saw a lot of places

[00:07:36] that look perfect for a moose or a bear.

[00:07:39] I saw no moose.

[00:07:40] I saw no bears, but it's probably I don't know the bears might

[00:07:44] already be hitting the highway.

[00:07:45] No roadkill.

[00:07:47] It makes Missouri look like Africa.

[00:07:50] The shit I see on the road in Missouri.

[00:07:52] I'm like, is that a kangaroo?

[00:07:54] What's dead over there?

[00:07:55] There's roadkill every two every two feet.

[00:07:58] But no, maybe Minnesota cleans theirs up better.

[00:08:01] I don't know.

[00:08:03] Lays smooth.

[00:08:05] Now lays, I didn't know they made dip.

[00:08:08] Smooth ranch dip by lays.

[00:08:17] Good.

[00:08:19] Yeah, it's good.

[00:08:21] Yeah, I would throw it out for a party.

[00:08:25] No, I mean, I wouldn't leave it in the jar if people were coming over.

[00:08:29] Right.

[00:08:30] I'd put it in something.

[00:08:32] Yeah.

[00:08:33] No, I'd act like I made it.

[00:08:35] I put it in a fancy bowl.

[00:08:39] All right, look, look, Fred Bird Cardinals in first place.

[00:08:43] Just a little shout out to all my Redbird six games ahead of who?

[00:08:46] Bye bye Colton Colton.

[00:08:49] So I have Colton, but much happier for the Cardinals.

[00:08:53] Milwaukee's falling apart.

[00:08:55] Not really sure why.

[00:08:56] So are the Yankees, but it doesn't matter.

[00:08:58] The Yankees are like 75 billion games ahead, but it will eat

[00:09:02] it their soul.

[00:09:03] And I like that part and it'll give somebody else a window to get in.

[00:09:08] All right, I love my Paul Bunyan glass.

[00:09:10] Just saying I want to go now to the northwest part, no, the northeast part.

[00:09:18] Oh, that's the south where the Mississippi starts.

[00:09:20] The headwaters of the Mississippi put videos out on that.

[00:09:23] It's literally there used to be some song that says Mississippi

[00:09:27] starts a place you could walk across with five steps.

[00:09:32] And you can.

[00:09:33] You can do five steps and get across the Mississippi.

[00:09:35] And it's clear it is nothing like the shit show that arrives in St.

[00:09:38] Louis, just this enormous brown log.

[00:09:42] But then there's parts of Mississippi up by all Illinois where it looks like a lake.

[00:09:47] It's a very tricky river.

[00:09:49] But when you see they have a whole they have this in the park.

[00:09:53] They have this whole setup like

[00:09:57] it task, a lake, a task, a park.

[00:10:00] And that's another huge lake with great trails and all this stuff.

[00:10:03] Although I'd be a little afraid of bears on the trails.

[00:10:07] Yeah, also afraid of serial killers.

[00:10:10] Probably people are probably more scared of people than I am because I could get

[00:10:14] bear spray, but I can't get serial killer spray.

[00:10:17] Like if it's a crazy person, I have to shoot them and I don't have a gun.

[00:10:21] Anyway, yes, the Mississippi is they have this whole display,

[00:10:26] a model of it starting and then every town it goes through,

[00:10:30] it was laying on a table this giant like what are those called?

[00:10:33] They're maps where they actually have little hills and stuff.

[00:10:36] There's a word for those.

[00:10:37] I don't know.

[00:10:39] But you can see just how far it goes and then where it gets wider

[00:10:43] and then where it splits off.

[00:10:44] But it's kind of a geeky, zoid thing, but I'm geeky enough to

[00:10:48] want to see it.

[00:10:49] But it's amazing.

[00:10:50] That's where it starts.

[00:10:50] And then some white guy took credit for finding it and really a black guy

[00:10:53] found it.

[00:10:54] And before that, 8000 years, pre Indians,

[00:10:58] pre Indians, I don't know what they were called.

[00:11:02] Pre Indians, pre there were people that are 8000 years or God's

[00:11:06] things, but the Indians said, well, we never thought it was important to

[00:11:11] say who found it.

[00:11:13] It was just there and we all knew it.

[00:11:15] And but he goes, the white guy, the white guy, they have this

[00:11:19] whole big billboard about the Indians and how the white guy was

[00:11:22] obsessed with claiming that they discovered it.

[00:11:27] That's because they could go back to Europe and get more money to go,

[00:11:30] quote, discover something else.

[00:11:31] You got you got to turn in your homework to the Queen of Spain or

[00:11:33] whoever you're out there working for when she's like, I gave you eight

[00:11:36] grand, what'd you find on your trip?

[00:11:38] Nothing.

[00:11:39] Well, you ain't going again then.

[00:11:40] No, you're not going.

[00:11:41] Where are you going?

[00:11:42] Yeah.

[00:11:43] The Indians just didn't understand that there's a feeder cell back

[00:11:46] somewhere in Europe going, get back out there.

[00:11:49] All right.

[00:11:49] Moving on to the shot.

[00:11:50] Oh, wait, Queen news, Queen news.

[00:11:53] Stevie, for those of you who might be in the area has added a show

[00:11:58] on Monday on Halloween in Huntsville, Alabama.

[00:12:03] Why?

[00:12:04] Well, as someone who's on the road a lot, I'm nothing against

[00:12:09] Huntsville because I go there and have a wonderful time

[00:12:11] golfing and eating their German food.

[00:12:13] I think it's a connector city.

[00:12:15] Sometimes you're out there on the road and then they'll go,

[00:12:17] hey, we could throw this in the middle and then you could

[00:12:19] keep going.

[00:12:20] And I don't know, I didn't look at the routing,

[00:12:22] but I would imagine as something to do with routing.

[00:12:26] Or maybe Stevie has friends in Huntsville.

[00:12:29] Or it was available and she wants to work on Halloween.

[00:12:34] It's an outdoor venue.

[00:12:35] I looked at it.

[00:12:36] No, I'm not going.

[00:12:37] No, I'm going to go in Nashville.

[00:12:40] And that would be too close.

[00:12:41] I don't want to be one of those people where I'm at

[00:12:44] every show and then she starts to focus in on that.

[00:12:48] Like, hey.

[00:12:49] Not that she would, but you never know.

[00:12:51] Like why is there a person here again and again and again

[00:12:54] and again not saying that one of my friends might be doing

[00:12:56] that with Winona Judd.

[00:12:58] One of my friends.

[00:12:59] One of my friends.

[00:13:01] And does not care.

[00:13:03] No.

[00:13:07] Anyway, update.

[00:13:09] Update.

[00:13:13] OK, our kidnappers in Michigan, the ones

[00:13:16] that we're going to take Gretchen.

[00:13:18] Yeah, absolutely not.

[00:13:19] You're not taking our governor.

[00:13:21] Gretchen Whitmer.

[00:13:21] Remember those guys?

[00:13:24] They were convicted.

[00:13:26] Two men convicted in the Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot.

[00:13:29] The convictions came after an earlier case against the two

[00:13:31] men ended in mistrial when jurors were unable to agree

[00:13:34] on a verdict.

[00:13:35] This is what the attorney, US attorney Niles Kessler

[00:13:39] told jurors in his closing argument.

[00:13:41] You can't just strap on an AR-15 and body

[00:13:45] and go snatch the governor.

[00:13:49] Well, they thought they could.

[00:13:51] And then they were going to, my favorite part of the story

[00:13:53] I know you guys have heard this, you're sick of hearing it,

[00:13:55] I'm sure, is that they were going to extradite her to Wisconsin.

[00:13:58] You go, extradite.

[00:14:00] Why?

[00:14:01] Why was God?

[00:14:02] Meaning drag her.

[00:14:03] Yeah, meaning put her in a trunk and drive her.

[00:14:06] They'd punch some holes.

[00:14:08] They probably watched the movie Casino.

[00:14:10] I know what to do.

[00:14:12] But that wasn't the defendant's ultimate goal,

[00:14:15] Kessler said.

[00:14:15] They wanted to set off a second American Civil War.

[00:14:18] Can we talk about that every day Civil War

[00:14:20] is trending on Twitter.

[00:14:21] And I put on Twitter, well, are we going to get jerseys?

[00:14:24] Because the Mason-Dixon line doesn't seem

[00:14:26] to be a point of demarcation anymore.

[00:14:29] Every time people call for a Civil War,

[00:14:30] they don't understand the Civil War worked, quote,

[00:14:35] worked because geographically, South against North.

[00:14:40] Somebody said, what if we're shirts against skins?

[00:14:42] I'm like, well, if I get skins, I have to wear a bra.

[00:14:45] I'm not going to war with no bra.

[00:14:47] It's got a sports bra, preferably.

[00:14:51] Every time they say that, I'm like,

[00:14:52] there are Trump people up North.

[00:14:56] There are the liberals down South.

[00:14:58] Everybody's all mixed up.

[00:14:59] So if we're going to have a Civil War again,

[00:15:02] I need some answers.

[00:15:04] I want jerseys.

[00:15:05] Jerseys.

[00:15:08] They wanted to set off a second American Civil War,

[00:15:10] a second American Revolution, something

[00:15:13] that they call the boogaloo.

[00:15:16] Well, that sounds fun.

[00:15:17] That doesn't sound dangerous.

[00:15:19] Hey, are you going to the Saturday Night Boogaloo?

[00:15:21] It doesn't sound like we're going to go kill people.

[00:15:23] And they wanted to do it for a long time

[00:15:25] before they settled on Governor Whitmer, the pair,

[00:15:28] along with several other men, planned to kidnap Whitmer

[00:15:30] vacation home, ostensibly over anger stemming

[00:15:33] from coronavirus restrictions.

[00:15:35] Federal, well, yeah, she did those COVID rules.

[00:15:37] And wasn't she the one that got caught out in her boat

[00:15:39] when you're not supposed to be?

[00:15:40] Yeah, her husband was.

[00:15:43] The crew had surveilled the Democratic governor's home

[00:15:45] and conducted field training exercises

[00:15:48] to practice combat taxes to prepare for the ambush.

[00:15:52] They were arrested after the four of them met with an undercover

[00:15:55] FBI agent.

[00:15:56] Agent had agreed to buy a foreground and explosives

[00:16:00] for the scheme.

[00:16:03] For the scheme, the plot was initially reported by the feds

[00:16:06] to an army vet who joined Croft and Fox's paramilitary

[00:16:09] group but became alarmed when the talk

[00:16:11] turned to killing the police.

[00:16:14] How about killing Gretchen?

[00:16:15] I mean, maybe she was a little too strict on COVID,

[00:16:18] but you've got to capture her when she's on vacation

[00:16:22] and kill her.

[00:16:23] Defense attorneys argued that Croft and Fox

[00:16:25] were victims of entrapment, and the two

[00:16:26] were just big talkers who were simply venting.

[00:16:29] This isn't Russia.

[00:16:30] This isn't how our country works.

[00:16:32] You don't get to suspect that someone might come out

[00:16:34] of crime because you don't like the things they say,

[00:16:36] and you don't like their ideologies.

[00:16:38] They face life imprisonment at sentencing.

[00:16:41] The two other men charged in the scene

[00:16:43] acquitted last spring in two more pleaded guilty.

[00:16:45] Whitmer said in his statement, violent threats

[00:16:50] have no place in politics.

[00:16:51] Thank you.

[00:16:52] OK.

[00:16:53] Thank you.

[00:16:54] Thank you, Gretchen.

[00:16:56] I will update you, Freaks, when I find out

[00:17:00] what their sentence is.

[00:17:01] What do you get for that?

[00:17:02] What do you get for having a plot to kill the governor

[00:17:05] or to at least snatch her, as they say?

[00:17:08] Update!

[00:17:10] Update!

[00:17:13] The Brinks truck.

[00:17:15] We talked about the Brinks truck robbery off I-5 in California.

[00:17:20] Well, Brinks says, this is their new update,

[00:17:24] that the rig driver slept while the thieves stole 22 bags

[00:17:28] of jewelry that's worth millions of dollars.

[00:17:30] One was asleep.

[00:17:34] And the other, the second driver

[00:17:37] was getting food inside at the rest stop

[00:17:40] and spent nearly 30 minutes away from the vehicle.

[00:17:43] Here's my question.

[00:17:44] I love a Flying J. Travel stop.

[00:17:47] I love a loves.

[00:17:49] I love Buckeys.

[00:17:51] I think the one in Missouri officially open.

[00:17:54] I'm going to have to get down to Springfield.

[00:17:57] But as much as I like those places, I've never spent,

[00:18:00] well, I could spend a half hour in Buckeys.

[00:18:01] If they told me this guy went into Buckeys,

[00:18:04] Flying J is just a big, it's clean, it's nice.

[00:18:07] It's like loves.

[00:18:07] It's just a gas giant gas station.

[00:18:10] Buckeys is a lifestyle.

[00:18:13] Buckeys is, it's an experience.

[00:18:15] It's a lifestyle.

[00:18:17] Buckeys, there's a lot of decision making going on.

[00:18:19] I could see spending way more than actually 30 minutes

[00:18:22] in a Buckeys.

[00:18:23] You can't run in Springfield.

[00:18:24] I know I said anything, it opened.

[00:18:27] And these were all mom and pop jewelry stores.

[00:18:29] So all this $100 million worth of stuff that got stolen

[00:18:32] it's like 2 million here, 5 million here.

[00:18:35] These people need their shit back

[00:18:37] or Brinks needs to pay them all off.

[00:18:39] But I don't believe this.

[00:18:40] I don't believe that somebody spent 30 minutes

[00:18:45] even if you had to go to the bathroom.

[00:18:48] Badly, it's not, if it's a 30 minute thing

[00:18:52] you need to go to urgent care.

[00:18:56] So I'm to believe one guy just fell asleep for a half hour.

[00:19:00] Well, the other guy went inside

[00:19:02] and maybe he had to use the bathroom.

[00:19:05] Maybe he took a shower because loves in those places

[00:19:07] when you're in they always go,

[00:19:08] I shower number 32, your shower available.

[00:19:12] And I'm like, oh God.

[00:19:14] Yeah, who knows?

[00:19:15] Maybe they're nice, I've never been in them.

[00:19:19] They say that they had got away with 8.7 million

[00:19:22] worth of merch and 22 bags.

[00:19:24] The security company's lawsuit alleges

[00:19:25] that the jewelers under declared the value

[00:19:27] of the items that were being transported

[00:19:29] and that the company is only responsible

[00:19:31] for the declared value.

[00:19:34] The people that had their crap in there

[00:19:36] say it's a hell of a lot more.

[00:19:39] Brinks declined to comment citing the pending litigation.

[00:19:42] Of course, I'm never gonna say anything.

[00:19:44] The people that owned all that jewelry

[00:19:45] because they're like little mom and pop jewelry stores

[00:19:48] if you will, if that's even a thing,

[00:19:49] if you wanna call it that.

[00:19:50] Everyone in our group has been emotionally

[00:19:52] and financially destroyed.

[00:19:55] We are lost and we do not know what comes in our lives.

[00:19:58] Whatever plans we have for the future

[00:19:59] our businesses and our families

[00:20:00] have evaporated in an instant.

[00:20:01] That's horrible.

[00:20:03] They said that the guy was gone for 27 minutes

[00:20:06] he returned to find the lock broken

[00:20:07] and though the sleeping driver said he hadn't seen

[00:20:10] or heard anything unusual according to the lawsuit,

[00:20:12] it was not immediately clear whether the driver

[00:20:14] was supposed to be gone for so long

[00:20:16] and if the sleeping birth, so they're called BERTH,

[00:20:21] TH like a sleeping pod is soundproof.

[00:20:24] In their lawsuit, the mom and pop

[00:20:25] are seeking 100 million in damages

[00:20:27] and 100 million in restitution.

[00:20:30] Yeah, the Brinks people undervalued it all.

[00:20:32] Well, that's too bad.

[00:20:33] I don't believe it though.

[00:20:35] I think termites, we hang on to this story

[00:20:39] and we're gonna find out there's something more to it.

[00:20:43] Nobody goes into flying J for a half an hour.

[00:20:45] And I don't believe you fall asleep just for a half an hour.

[00:20:49] I mean, I can but I have exceptional sleeping abilities.

[00:20:52] But I wouldn't necessarily wake up

[00:20:54] till somebody woke me up, excuse me.

[00:20:58] Lock must not, my lock must not need to be moved.

[00:21:01] Update!

[00:21:05] Further record termites too.

[00:21:06] My parents no longer live in the villages

[00:21:08] cause we talk about all the things that happened good and bad.

[00:21:12] I did a show there, it was wonderful.

[00:21:15] It really was.

[00:21:18] But there's some bad termites down in the villages.

[00:21:21] What?

[00:21:22] Again.

[00:21:23] A moment, and my parents have left.

[00:21:25] They're now in Sarasota if you'd ever like to meet

[00:21:28] them and 60 of their friends.

[00:21:29] Come to one of my shows in Sarasota.

[00:21:31] They ran a tour bus and then they show up outside.

[00:21:34] Third resident of the villages admits to voting twice

[00:21:38] in the 2020 election.

[00:21:40] Yep, Jean Halstead, 73 year, Joan, Joan Halstead,

[00:21:45] 73 years old entered a pretrial intervention program Wednesday

[00:21:48] that will allow her to avoid prison potential.

[00:21:51] Prison time if she successfully completes

[00:21:53] court ordered regiments requirements

[00:21:55] such as performing community service.

[00:21:57] I love and attending civics classes.

[00:21:59] I love a civics class, I love it.

[00:22:02] She acknowledged her guilt as part of the agreement

[00:22:04] with prosecutors.

[00:22:05] The parties agree, the first step is rehabilitation.

[00:22:08] Well, you can't rehabilitate a cheater.

[00:22:12] She's a cheater.

[00:22:13] I mean maybe not in everything,

[00:22:14] but in this, this isn't about rehabilitation.

[00:22:17] She knows you're not supposed to vote twice.

[00:22:19] There's no civics class.

[00:22:21] I'm just glad she has to go cause they're boring.

[00:22:23] You go sit your ass down Joan.

[00:22:26] A civics class?

[00:22:27] Yeah.

[00:22:28] Yeah.

[00:22:30] This is how government works.

[00:22:32] No.

[00:22:33] I mean it's interesting once, but she's 73.

[00:22:36] I'm pretty sure she's taken a civics class in her life.

[00:22:39] She has, I have no comment about this.

[00:22:41] Thank you very much Joan told News 6.

[00:22:44] The other two residents of the village

[00:22:45] of Cudig voting twice, Charlie and Jay,

[00:22:47] signed similar pretrial intervention contracts

[00:22:50] this early, all three for facing a maximum

[00:22:52] of five years in prison.

[00:22:54] Mm-hmm, third degree felony.

[00:22:56] That's not good, leet in life.

[00:22:58] Cause you can outlive a felony.

[00:22:59] I asked my friend Ron White,

[00:23:01] but his, God, his what he was very young.

[00:23:04] Fourth resident of the sprawling retirement community,

[00:23:07] John Ryder is still awaiting trial.

[00:23:09] He pleaded not guilty.

[00:23:11] That's a mistake, John.

[00:23:13] Just say you did it cause they know.

[00:23:15] If they found out, they know.

[00:23:18] Under the pretrial intervention contracts,

[00:23:19] prosecution of Halstead will be deferred

[00:23:23] for a period of 18 months with the possibility

[00:23:24] that it would permanently deferred

[00:23:25] if they successfully complete the court order requirements.

[00:23:28] Ba, ba, ba, ba, they also have,

[00:23:30] oh it's a 12 week adult civic class

[00:23:33] based on the net textbook.

[00:23:35] We the people in order to form a more perfect union.

[00:23:40] Establish.

[00:23:41] Are you singing?

[00:23:42] The song that was played on cartoons on Saturday morning.

[00:23:45] Sing, I don't know.

[00:23:47] Well, hold on.

[00:23:49] Their class is called We the People,

[00:23:51] the Citizen and the Constitution

[00:23:53] and receive, they have to get a C or better.

[00:23:59] Hey, what?

[00:24:01] The We the People song in cartoons.

[00:24:06] Oh, Schoolhouse Rock, the preamble to the Constitution.

[00:24:09] You don't know the words?

[00:24:11] Cause you didn't do that in Canada.

[00:24:13] You should sing it though.

[00:24:14] We the people preamble words.

[00:24:19] I will sing it.

[00:24:21] We the people in order to form a more perfect union.

[00:24:25] Establish, just to ensure domestic tranquility.

[00:24:30] Boom, provide for the common defense.

[00:24:33] Promote the general welfare

[00:24:36] and secure the blessings of lived in tea

[00:24:37] to ourselves and posterity.

[00:24:40] To ordain and establish, there you go.

[00:24:42] Wow.

[00:24:44] Yeah, sing it every Saturday.

[00:24:46] We the people.

[00:24:47] That'll show you the difference in generations.

[00:24:49] I'm walking around singing the preamble

[00:24:51] to the Constitution as a kid.

[00:24:53] That's ridiculous.

[00:24:56] Yeah, they all got ratted out.

[00:24:58] Somebody down there, a citizen election integrity analyst

[00:25:03] who used the pseudonym totes legit votes

[00:25:07] is the one who ratted these people out.

[00:25:09] They provided Florida elections officials

[00:25:11] with nearly 300 examples of double voting.

[00:25:14] But a spokesperson said, yep,

[00:25:16] Florida Secretary of State has not confirmed that figure

[00:25:20] and has not answered questions submitted by News 6.

[00:25:25] Get it together down there, villages.

[00:25:28] This lady, they don't say how she voted twice.

[00:25:32] Like the other guy, I know the one guy

[00:25:34] that voted in Connecticut and then down there,

[00:25:36] probably that, because most of them have another,

[00:25:39] or they had another address

[00:25:42] or they can have their kids do it or something.

[00:25:44] Update!

[00:25:46] It's our last trader update.

[00:25:47] Well, not last one, but for today.

[00:25:50] These are, the Michigan people were local traders.

[00:25:55] These are national.

[00:25:56] Proud boy who came within seconds of Senator Schumer

[00:25:59] on January 6th was sentenced to 55 minutes in prison,

[00:26:01] 55 months in prison.

[00:26:03] 55 minutes, it's a quick stay.

[00:26:05] Joshua Pruitt, the proud boy

[00:26:08] who nearly came face to face with the insanity,

[00:26:10] they all had masks on.

[00:26:12] So you're not that proud?

[00:26:14] No, you're chicken shit.

[00:26:16] Yeah, you're chicken shit.

[00:26:18] If you're so proud to be part of your

[00:26:20] Oathkeeper, horseshit,

[00:26:23] spare military, they're all overweight, not a shape too.

[00:26:26] I'm like, what do you think you're all gonna do?

[00:26:27] You're not gonna climb a wall.

[00:26:28] Maybe one out of five of you.

[00:26:33] This guy, he nearly came face to face with Chuck Schumer.

[00:26:36] He was sent, that's four years, by the way, 55 months.

[00:26:38] It's four years and seven months behind bars

[00:26:40] in his rule of obstructing

[00:26:43] the certification of the Electoral College vote that day.

[00:26:47] You were at the forefront of that mob,

[00:26:49] Judge Timothy Kelly said before handing down his sentence

[00:26:52] adding that Pruitt and the mobs action

[00:26:54] snapped our previously unbroken tradition

[00:26:57] of the peaceful transition of power.

[00:26:59] That's what bothered me the most.

[00:27:00] We've had a good track record

[00:27:02] and we've had some people, other presidents

[00:27:04] that were not great and nobody went crazy.

[00:27:09] Their plans were not limited to fighting Antifa.

[00:27:11] They participated going to the Capitol

[00:27:13] to stop the certification of the election

[00:27:15] and confronting cops who might try to stand in their way

[00:27:18] of prosecutors' vote.

[00:27:19] At the time of the riot, Pruitt was merely a recruit

[00:27:24] waiting to be officially inducted into the far right group.

[00:27:27] To join the proud boys,

[00:27:29] the defendant would do whatever it takes,

[00:27:30] one of the prosecutors said.

[00:27:32] During the attack, he was the first one

[00:27:34] to enter the Capitol and destroy the large sign

[00:27:36] in the building, oh, throwing it across the room.

[00:27:38] Which prosecutors' argument was meant

[00:27:40] to stir up the mob inside.

[00:27:42] Schumer's protective detail told prosecutors

[00:27:44] they had to change their evacuation plan.

[00:27:46] He is a big man, this guy, Pruitt.

[00:27:49] They saw him in the building and he was just

[00:27:52] four or five seconds away from the senator.

[00:27:54] Instead of exiting through an elevator,

[00:27:56] Schumer and his detail ran down a ramp

[00:27:57] and shut the double doors behind him.

[00:27:58] Well, here's a good thing.

[00:28:00] Chuck Schumer has been in the Senate for probably 287 years.

[00:28:04] I'm sure he knows where every door goes.

[00:28:06] You know your way out.

[00:28:07] If you're new, you're probably like,

[00:28:08] how the hell do I get out of here?

[00:28:10] Before being sentenced, Pruitt dressed

[00:28:12] in a prison jumpsuit with 1776 tattooed

[00:28:15] across the knuckles of his right hand

[00:28:17] told Kelly that he still believed

[00:28:18] the 2020 election was stolen, but admitted he broke the law.

[00:28:23] I wish I would have been watching it from a restaurant,

[00:28:25] Pruitt said.

[00:28:26] He added it was not a good day.

[00:28:30] Yeah, to say the least.

[00:28:34] By the way, I know people don't like it

[00:28:37] when I talk about politics so I'm not going to.

[00:28:38] But can I just say that in the Mar-a-Lago raid

[00:28:42] of papers, apparently I can't,

[00:28:45] I don't know this for sure, for sure.

[00:28:47] He's got a file on Macron, little Frenchie.

[00:28:52] His sex life and here's what I don't think.

[00:28:56] I hear this with, I don't, well,

[00:28:59] but here's what I don't think Donald understands.

[00:29:00] The French don't give a shit.

[00:29:02] He can have 18 girlfriends, boyfriends, nobody.

[00:29:05] The French are, half of them enter office

[00:29:08] with their girlfriend and their wife.

[00:29:10] Like everybody knows, oh that's his mistress.

[00:29:12] He sees her when he goes to the South.

[00:29:14] That's the one up North.

[00:29:15] Always got this German gal.

[00:29:16] He visits every now.

[00:29:18] Like of all the people that go, gotcha!

[00:29:21] No, no.

[00:29:23] Moving on, holy shit they've, oh yeah, wait, holy.

[00:29:26] Well, this is an update.

[00:29:28] I should have put this in an update pile.

[00:29:30] Track down the super yachts of Roman Abramovic,

[00:29:36] Abramovic, Abramovic and other Putin oligarchs

[00:29:39] were sent to Turkey.

[00:29:41] Yep, there's a bunch sitting in Turkey.

[00:29:46] Roman, how did I say it?

[00:29:50] Abramovic flanked by four hefty bodyguards

[00:29:53] and trailed by his family,

[00:29:55] stalled into a restaurant without a care in the world.

[00:29:57] Sanctions have hit the Russian billionaire heart.

[00:29:59] His close ties to Vlad have led to accusations

[00:30:02] that he has blood on his hands over the Ukraine,

[00:30:04] but onlookers seem perfectly at ease.

[00:30:07] Where are we?

[00:30:08] We're in Turkey.

[00:30:10] He ate and drank and enjoyed, enjoying Chateau Rionne.

[00:30:13] I haven't heard of that since I was in high school.

[00:30:15] When my parents would try to be fancy,

[00:30:17] they'd go, do you have Chateau Rionne?

[00:30:18] They didn't know what was.

[00:30:19] An expensive red wine.

[00:30:22] So he's in a restaurant in the Turkish port of G-O-C-E-K,

[00:30:28] Gokik, and he was stunned to see

[00:30:31] the globally famous guest inside at his table.

[00:30:34] He admitted to being nervous,

[00:30:35] there are these troubling times for the Kremlin

[00:30:37] and the oligarchs Turkey,

[00:30:39] though it was becoming the bulk hole

[00:30:43] for their choice of super yachts.

[00:30:44] No fewer than 11.

[00:30:47] Bolt.

[00:30:48] Bolt hole.

[00:30:49] Bolt hole.

[00:30:50] No, including four belonging to former Chelsea FC owner

[00:30:55] are birthed here.

[00:30:56] That's guy, Roman, beyond UK, EU and US sanctions.

[00:31:00] So you can't do nothing about it

[00:31:01] because they're not involved in any of it.

[00:31:03] It also helps that the president's regime

[00:31:05] is close to Russia.

[00:31:06] Some of the yachts are still available for hire

[00:31:08] for rich party goers.

[00:31:09] Well, how many friends do I gotta get involved?

[00:31:12] I'm higher in one.

[00:31:13] First, I gotta call Foxworthy.

[00:31:15] Nope, Seinfeld.

[00:31:16] He's got the most money I know.

[00:31:19] Hey, do you guys wanna help me rent?

[00:31:22] And by help me, it means I have enough money

[00:31:25] to put enough gas to turn it on.

[00:31:27] The key will work if somebody lifts the seat

[00:31:30] and turns the battery on.

[00:31:31] I'll bring the floodlights.

[00:31:32] Yeah, at least one of them is crewed

[00:31:34] by a British staff.

[00:31:36] After Russian invasion of Ukraine,

[00:31:38] Roman moved his collection of boats

[00:31:40] worth an estimated 1.1 billion

[00:31:42] from Burse across the world

[00:31:43] to this part of the Mediterranean.

[00:31:46] Two of them were, one is the Eclipse.

[00:31:48] It goes into what they are and stuff,

[00:31:49] but this is basically where they're at.

[00:31:51] There's one that was anchored two miles out at sea.

[00:31:54] It has the feel of a ghost ship

[00:31:55] with five or six staff on board

[00:31:57] instead of the usual 95.

[00:31:58] See, this is my dream job.

[00:32:01] Five of us on this humongous yacht

[00:32:04] and those people never show up.

[00:32:07] No.

[00:32:08] We're living their lives.

[00:32:10] Yeah.

[00:32:12] Right.

[00:32:13] Caretaker, boat taker, boat care keeper.

[00:32:17] I'll take either one of those gigs.

[00:32:21] Most of the staff left after sanctions

[00:32:24] became into force because their salaries went unpaid.

[00:32:27] Oh, is that time?

[00:32:28] What, do I need one though?

[00:32:31] Do I need a salary?

[00:32:33] I wanna leave the boat?

[00:32:34] Maybe I don't.

[00:32:36] If there's food and drinks and,

[00:32:38] why don't, it's gorgeous.

[00:32:41] It's gonna get cold though.

[00:32:43] Now's the time.

[00:32:44] You shouldn't have left in the early summer.

[00:32:46] You wait until Labor Day.

[00:32:50] I won't keep going, you guys get the point,

[00:32:52] but that's where they're hiding.

[00:32:55] That's what's going on down there.

[00:32:56] They're all hiding in Turkey and you can,

[00:33:01] Lewis went to Turkey, he loved it, Istanbul.

[00:33:05] Did you like it?

[00:33:07] He wouldn't go back.

[00:33:09] The markets, the Turkish markets,

[00:33:11] are they selling rugs?

[00:33:12] That's what I picture.

[00:33:14] Cause wasn't it part of the spice trail

[00:33:16] or whatever that was called?

[00:33:17] It was really cool, one time.

[00:33:18] Well, maybe I could do it from a boat.

[00:33:23] Like a cruise.

[00:33:24] But I don't know how people are gonna be cruising anymore

[00:33:26] because there's no flipping water left.

[00:33:29] Okay, this should just be called the drought section.

[00:33:32] What we found during the drought

[00:33:33] that's the weirdest in my lifetime

[00:33:35] that I am aware of.

[00:33:36] Maybe before I was five,

[00:33:38] when I didn't watch the news or I couldn't read.

[00:33:42] This is holy shit, they found it.

[00:33:46] I should whisper that.

[00:33:51] Holy shit!

[00:33:51] They found it.

[00:33:53] Yes.

[00:33:54] How's that?

[00:33:54] I like it.

[00:33:55] The drying Danube River reveals explosive laden

[00:33:58] World War II Nazi warships.

[00:34:01] First of all, the Rhine, we talked about that,

[00:34:03] has like two inches of water left.

[00:34:06] That's it.

[00:34:07] And now the Danube.

[00:34:08] Danube, Europe's worst drought in years

[00:34:10] has pushed the mighty river Danube

[00:34:12] to one of its lowest levels in a century,

[00:34:15] exposing hulks of dozens of explosive laden

[00:34:17] German warships sunk during World War II

[00:34:20] near Serbia's river port town of Prohovo.

[00:34:24] The vessels were among hundreds

[00:34:26] scuttled along the Danube by Nazi Germany's Black Sea Fleet

[00:34:30] in 1944 as they retreated.

[00:34:32] Oh, they were running home from the Russians.

[00:34:36] Yeah, and they still hamper river traffic

[00:34:39] in low water levels.

[00:34:40] The German flotilla has left behind

[00:34:42] a big ecological disaster that threatens us.

[00:34:45] The people of Prohovo said,

[00:34:49] Velomir, 74, a pensioner from Prohovo

[00:34:54] who wrote a book about the German ships.

[00:34:56] Workers in the local fishing industry are also at risk,

[00:34:59] including from Romania,

[00:35:02] which lies just across the river.

[00:35:03] Months of drought and record high temperatures

[00:35:05] have snarled river traffic on vital arteries

[00:35:07] in other parts of Europe,

[00:35:08] including Germany, Italy, and France.

[00:35:10] In Serbia, the authorities have resorted

[00:35:12] to dredging to keep navigation lanes.

[00:35:14] Yeah, that's what you're gonna have to do.

[00:35:15] You're gonna have to get out there

[00:35:16] with a big-ass shovel and dig deeper.

[00:35:20] I didn't see a picture though, I wanna see.

[00:35:25] Shorn across the riverbed, some of the ships,

[00:35:28] still boast turrets, command bridges, broken mast,

[00:35:31] and twisted hulls while others lie mostly submerged

[00:35:34] under sandbags.

[00:35:35] I mean, I can't even keep up with the Lake Mead stuff.

[00:35:38] Every week there's just another dead person

[00:35:40] from whatever and the stuff they're finding there,

[00:35:43] but this is a holy shit, they found it.

[00:35:46] Now in my video I said 113 years,

[00:35:48] I meant 113 million years.

[00:35:50] I know, I'm assuming there's no one alive,

[00:35:53] although I don't know the cute people might

[00:35:56] that believe there were dinosaurs 113 years ago in Texas.

[00:35:59] This is shocking,

[00:36:03] and you have to go look at the pictures

[00:36:05] because now it makes me even more afraid of dinosaurs.

[00:36:08] Dinosaur tracks from 113 million years ago

[00:36:10] were uncovered due to severe drought conditions

[00:36:12] in Dinosaur Valley State Park.

[00:36:15] Wow. Uh-huh.

[00:36:17] It's in Texas, severe drought conditions

[00:36:20] that dried up a river.

[00:36:22] Most of the tracks that have recently been uncovered

[00:36:24] and discovered at parts of the different parts

[00:36:26] of the river belong to Arachnothosaurus.

[00:36:30] This dinosaur would stand as an adult

[00:36:32] at about 15 feet tall.

[00:36:34] What? Holy shit.

[00:36:37] I'm only five foot.

[00:36:38] Yeah, that's crazy. You lose.

[00:36:40] And it weighed close to seven tons.

[00:36:43] Wow.

[00:36:44] The other species that left tracks behind

[00:36:46] at the Glen Rose, Texas was Sorrow, Pocetian.

[00:36:51] I'm not saying that right,

[00:36:52] which would have been 60 feet tall.

[00:36:55] Yeah, you should see its footprints.

[00:36:56] I mean, I thought I was looking at cool stuff in Canada

[00:36:59] when I saw elk and bear tracks.

[00:37:01] I mean these things,

[00:37:02] because they have a guy in the photo

[00:37:04] so it puts it to size.

[00:37:06] It's revealing the tracks.

[00:37:08] The latest longest hidden secret recently exposed

[00:37:11] as bodies of water have dried up

[00:37:12] to conditions throughout the country.

[00:37:14] More than 60% of Texas was experiencing drought last week

[00:37:17] in the two of the most intense categories.

[00:37:20] The state also recently experienced heat waves.

[00:37:22] Yeah, we know all that.

[00:37:26] Being able to find these discoveries

[00:37:27] and experience new dinosaur tracks

[00:37:28] is always an exciting time at the park, Garcia added.

[00:37:31] Meanwhile, the tracks are expected to be buried again

[00:37:33] as rain is in the forecast.

[00:37:35] Can somebody get down there and put some molds in there?

[00:37:39] Put a type of...

[00:37:40] Yeah, something.

[00:37:43] While these newer dinosaur tracks

[00:37:44] were visible for a brief amount of time,

[00:37:47] it brought the wonder and excitement

[00:37:48] about finding new dinosaur tracks at the park.

[00:37:50] Dinosaur Valley State Park will continue

[00:37:53] to protect these 113 million year old tracks

[00:37:55] not only for present future generations.

[00:37:57] The tracks are just the latest discovery.

[00:37:59] Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba.

[00:38:00] Oh wow.

[00:38:01] This river?

[00:38:03] Oh no, what they're saying.

[00:38:04] Evidence also in Lake Mead,

[00:38:07] in Utah as recent months of reservoir

[00:38:09] has dropped to about 27% of its full capacity.

[00:38:13] Lake Mead.

[00:38:14] Whoa.

[00:38:15] It's crazy.

[00:38:17] Speaking of droughts, not stopping.

[00:38:20] What are we gonna do about it?

[00:38:21] This one's great.

[00:38:23] Spanish Stonehenge emerges from drought hit damn.

[00:38:28] Yep, they found another Stonehenge.

[00:38:30] A brutal summer has caused havoc for many in rural Spain.

[00:38:34] One unexpected, but one unexpected side effect

[00:38:37] of the country's worst drought in decades

[00:38:39] is delighted archeologists.

[00:38:40] The emergence of a prehistoric stone circle in a dam

[00:38:43] whose water line has receded.

[00:38:45] Officially known as the Dolman of Guadalapero,

[00:38:49] but was dubbed the Spanish Stonehenge.

[00:38:51] The circle of dozens of megalithic stones

[00:38:55] is believed to date back to 5000 BC.

[00:38:57] It currently sits fully exposed in one corner

[00:39:00] of the Valdecanas Reservoir

[00:39:04] in the central province of something, something.

[00:39:07] This level has dropped to 28%.

[00:39:11] Wow.

[00:39:11] And that's how they found it.

[00:39:12] That's cool.

[00:39:13] Yeah, it was discovered,

[00:39:16] it was initially discovered in 1926,

[00:39:18] but the area flooded in 1963

[00:39:19] and Rural Development Project with Franco,

[00:39:23] the dictator.

[00:39:24] And then since then it's only become visible four times.

[00:39:29] Yep, go look at it.

[00:39:31] Fascinating.

[00:39:32] This is just shit from a drought.

[00:39:36] But again, nobody with any kind of power seems alarmed.

[00:39:39] And I'm just sitting here drinking Bemidji beer.

[00:39:42] What do I care?

[00:39:45] Pull it up!

[00:39:46] I mean, I care for there's nothing I can do about it.

[00:39:49] Moving on.

[00:39:51] News.

[00:39:52] Okay.

[00:39:54] This is sad.

[00:39:56] We're always gonna end with a feel good story though,

[00:39:58] that's what I decided.

[00:39:59] Yeah, because my quotes,

[00:40:01] I kept trying to do that as the last part

[00:40:03] of this little goodbye, but some of them,

[00:40:05] some of the weeks in the magazine,

[00:40:07] Lewis sent me there's just not really good ones.

[00:40:09] Man, this-

[00:40:10] Or they're still depressing.

[00:40:11] Or they're depressing, right?

[00:40:13] Man of the whole!

[00:40:15] What?

[00:40:17] Last of his tribe dies in Brazil.

[00:40:21] Man of the whole?

[00:40:22] They call them Man of the whole, I tell you why.

[00:40:25] In 1998, the man was caught on video

[00:40:28] during a chance encounter.

[00:40:29] The man whose name is not known

[00:40:31] has lived in total isolation for the past 26 years.

[00:40:34] He was known as Man of the whole

[00:40:36] because he dug deep holes,

[00:40:37] some of which used to trap animals, smart.

[00:40:41] This dumb shit wouldn't ever thought of that.

[00:40:43] I'd be out there with some sort of club

[00:40:45] trying to beat something over the head I couldn't catch.

[00:40:48] Bam!

[00:40:50] He- Right.

[00:40:51] Come on, let's go.

[00:40:52] Some of which he used to trap animals,

[00:40:54] while other appeared to be hiding spaces.

[00:40:56] His body was found on August 23rd

[00:40:59] in a hammock outside his straw hut.

[00:41:01] There were no signs of violence.

[00:41:02] The man was the last of an indigenous group

[00:41:04] whose other remaining six members were killed in 1995.

[00:41:08] The group lived in Tanarou, indigenous area

[00:41:11] in the state of

[00:41:15] Rondonium, which borders Bolivia.

[00:41:17] I looked it up, it's right in the middle.

[00:41:20] The majority of his tribe were thought to be killed

[00:41:23] as the early on, as the 1970s

[00:41:28] by ranchers wanting to expand their land.

[00:41:31] How sad would that be?

[00:41:33] If there's only six of you and they kill five

[00:41:35] and now I'm the only one left.

[00:41:36] And I mean it clearly, you knew how to live out there

[00:41:39] but lonely.

[00:41:41] He's thought to have been about 60 years old

[00:41:43] died of natural causes.

[00:41:44] There were no signs of any incursions in his territory

[00:41:46] and nothing in his hut had been disturbed.

[00:41:49] But the police will still carry out

[00:41:50] a post-mortem investigation.

[00:41:52] Under Brazil's constitution,

[00:41:53] indigenous people have a right to their traditional land

[00:41:55] so those wanting to seize it have been known to kill them.

[00:42:00] Yeah, the man of the whole has been monitored

[00:42:02] for his own safety by agents from Brazil's

[00:42:05] indigenous affairs agencies since 1996.

[00:42:09] In 2018 members of that agency

[00:42:12] managed to film the man during a chance encounter

[00:42:14] in the jungle.

[00:42:15] In the footage he can be seen hacking in a tree

[00:42:17] with something resembling an axe.

[00:42:19] There had been no sighting of him since,

[00:42:22] so nobody's seen him since 2018.

[00:42:24] Maybe he had COVID.

[00:42:28] But they did come across huts.

[00:42:30] You should see his huts are really good

[00:42:31] which were built from straws and deep holesy dug

[00:42:34] some of which had sharpened spikes at the bottom.

[00:42:37] Yeah well he's not hiding in there.

[00:42:38] He's catching stuff and he wants it to die when it lands.

[00:42:41] There had been no sighting of him since evidence

[00:42:45] found that his huts and kids,

[00:42:46] they suggested he planted maize and fruits

[00:42:49] such as papaya and bananas.

[00:42:52] There's about 240 indigenous tribes in Brazil

[00:42:54] and many under threat as illegal miners,

[00:42:56] loggers and farmers encroach onto their territory.

[00:43:00] That's a warning from the survival international,

[00:43:03] blah blah blah somebody fighting for their rights.

[00:43:05] Yeah can you imagine just going and killing people

[00:43:07] cause you wanted a tree?

[00:43:08] I mean if I were those tribes I'd come out

[00:43:13] and I'd say I'd steal a book of matches.

[00:43:17] And I would say if we see one more of you people

[00:43:20] just one more or lighten the whole goddamn thing on fire.

[00:43:23] What?

[00:43:24] Yep use it as a-

[00:43:26] That's extreme.

[00:43:27] No use it as blackmail.

[00:43:28] Matches were a whole.

[00:43:29] If they can find matches, a lighter,

[00:43:33] they know how to make fire.

[00:43:34] Just say if I see one more white man or whatever

[00:43:38] one of people that are not us

[00:43:40] we're setting the whole goddamn thing on fire.

[00:43:42] Then see how many of them keep running back there.

[00:43:45] You gotta play by their rules.

[00:43:48] Missouri.

[00:43:50] Oh boy.

[00:43:52] What did you do?

[00:43:53] Oh Missouri.

[00:43:57] A Missouri school district and I'd like to say

[00:43:59] it's awfully close to Arkansas.

[00:44:03] They're reinstating spanking

[00:44:06] if the parents sign the permission slip to hit you.

[00:44:09] Come on.

[00:44:10] Nope bringing it back.

[00:44:15] Here's what's happening.

[00:44:21] A school district in southwestern Missouri

[00:44:22] has decided to bring back spanking

[00:44:24] as a form of discipline for students

[00:44:26] if their parents agree,

[00:44:28] despite warnings from many public health experts

[00:44:30] that the practice is detrimental to students.

[00:44:32] Classes retuned.

[00:44:33] Unbelievable.

[00:44:35] They resumed Tuesday in the Cassville School District

[00:44:37] for the first time since the school board

[00:44:39] in June approved bringing back corporal punishment

[00:44:42] back to the 1,900 student district

[00:44:44] at about 60 miles southwest of Springfield.

[00:44:48] The district had dropped the practice in 2001.

[00:44:52] So for 21 years,

[00:44:55] no, yep.

[00:44:57] They were like,

[00:44:58] shit we should have never gotten rid of that.

[00:45:01] The policy states of corporal punishment

[00:45:03] will only be used when other forms of discipline

[00:45:05] such as suspensions have failed

[00:45:07] and then only with the superintendent's permission.

[00:45:09] So basically they're saying,

[00:45:11] we're out of ideas.

[00:45:13] Just hit it.

[00:45:14] Hit that kid.

[00:45:15] Hit it.

[00:45:16] See if that works.

[00:45:18] Well, I don't know.

[00:45:20] I tried to talk to him, he's an asshole.

[00:45:22] Hit it.

[00:45:23] What about her?

[00:45:24] Hit it.

[00:45:25] Oh my God.

[00:45:26] Oh.

[00:45:28] Superintendent Merlin Johnson.

[00:45:32] Merlin, I don't ask you.

[00:45:34] The told the Springfield News Leader

[00:45:35] that the decision came after an anonymous survey

[00:45:38] found, oh, stop it.

[00:45:41] Found that parents, students and school employees

[00:45:42] were concerned about student behavior and discipline.

[00:45:45] I mean, when you just resort to hitting,

[00:45:48] it means you don't have any more ideas or thoughts.

[00:45:50] Like your brain doesn't,

[00:45:52] I mean if it's a little kid

[00:45:53] and they're gonna touch a stove,

[00:45:55] yeah, you hit their hand.

[00:45:56] I'm not gonna get into this argument,

[00:45:57] but in a school,

[00:45:59] it just makes me laugh that they're like,

[00:46:03] we don't know what else to do, just hit him.

[00:46:07] Hit it.

[00:46:10] An anonymous survey.

[00:46:12] I don't believe that.

[00:46:13] We've actually had people thank us for it.

[00:46:15] Surprisingly, those on social medias

[00:46:17] would probably be appalled to hear us saying these things,

[00:46:19] but yeah.

[00:46:20] Yeah.

[00:46:21] But the majority of people I've run into

[00:46:23] have been in supportive.

[00:46:26] Parent Christina Harky said she's on the fence

[00:46:31] about this policy.

[00:46:32] She and her husband did not opt in

[00:46:34] because their six year old son, Anika.

[00:46:38] Son?

[00:46:39] No, Anakin.

[00:46:40] A-N-A-K-I-N.

[00:46:42] I'm like Skywalker.

[00:46:44] Is that what that is?

[00:46:44] That's a bad Star Wars person.

[00:46:46] It's a Star Wars person?

[00:46:48] Anakin, is that true?

[00:46:50] I think so.

[00:46:51] A Star Wars person.

[00:46:55] Well, Anakin is autistic,

[00:47:00] and he would hit back if he was faint.

[00:47:03] My nephew's autistic.

[00:47:04] I don't know.

[00:47:05] I don't think he would hit back.

[00:47:07] Anakin Skywalker.

[00:47:08] Anakin, oh no.

[00:47:09] I don't know how I know that.

[00:47:09] How do you know that?

[00:47:10] I have no idea.

[00:47:12] I've never seen a Star Wars.

[00:47:13] I have no idea.

[00:47:14] Oh my God.

[00:47:15] He's cute.

[00:47:18] The one in Star Wars?

[00:47:20] Or, okay.

[00:47:22] But she said corporal punishment were for her

[00:47:24] when she was a quote troublemaker

[00:47:26] during her school years in California.

[00:47:28] There are different kinds of kids.

[00:47:29] Some people need a good butt whipping.

[00:47:32] I was one of them.

[00:47:35] Morgan Craven, National Director of Policy,

[00:47:38] Advocating and Community Engagement,

[00:47:41] called corporal punishment

[00:47:43] a wildly inappropriate, ineffective practice.

[00:47:46] The US Supreme Court ruled in 1977

[00:47:49] that corporal punishment is constitutional

[00:47:51] and left it up to the states.

[00:47:53] 19 states, many in the South,

[00:47:55] have laws allowing it in schools.

[00:47:57] The most current data from 2017-18

[00:48:00] shows about 70,000 children in the US

[00:48:03] were hit at least once in their schools.

[00:48:07] Really?

[00:48:08] I mean, even by the time I got to Catholic school,

[00:48:10] they had stopped hitting people.

[00:48:13] Right.

[00:48:13] Nobody got hit.

[00:48:16] And sister Francine was not a small lady.

[00:48:19] She could have hurt you.

[00:48:20] She's a hitter.

[00:48:21] I don't know if she was a hitter,

[00:48:22] but if she was gonna hit, you'd feel it.

[00:48:25] Students who are hit at school

[00:48:26] do not fare well as academically as their peers

[00:48:28] and suffer physical and psychological trauma.

[00:48:31] In some cases, children are hurt so badly

[00:48:33] they need medical attention.

[00:48:38] Tess Walters, the 54-year-old guardian

[00:48:41] of her eight-year-old granddaughter,

[00:48:42] had no qualms about signing the corporal punishment.

[00:48:44] Do it.

[00:48:45] Opt in papers.

[00:48:46] She said the possibility of being spanked

[00:48:48] is a deterrent for her granddaughter.

[00:48:49] Who has attention deficit hyperactivity disorder?

[00:48:52] Help her!

[00:48:54] Don't hit her!

[00:48:55] Oh, all right.

[00:48:57] You know, even there was like a paddle in,

[00:49:01] my fifth grade class or anything,

[00:49:03] there was a paddle that hung from the wall.

[00:49:05] Why?

[00:49:06] Who ever, well they would use that as like an ethereal threat

[00:49:09] if a shit gets really hot and we're gonna take

[00:49:12] that paddle off the wall and beat some asses here.

[00:49:15] But I never really thought they'd do it

[00:49:17] and it wouldn't have been a deterrent anyway.

[00:49:21] It was like a joke paddle,

[00:49:22] like those giant spoons and forks

[00:49:24] like your aunt would have on a wall in the kitchen

[00:49:26] where you're like, oh, there's a giant

[00:49:27] coming by to have a salad.

[00:49:29] Um...

[00:49:34] Mitch Pristine,

[00:49:35] offer for the Chief Science Officer

[00:49:37] with the American Psychological Association said

[00:49:39] there are better methods for eliminating undesirable conduct

[00:49:43] including problem-solving training,

[00:49:45] rewarding positive behavior,

[00:49:47] such as with extra recess

[00:49:48] and providing extra attention in the classroom.

[00:49:52] I understand that some of these teachers

[00:49:53] can be overwhelmed and you probably think,

[00:49:55] I wish I could just smack that little asshole.

[00:49:57] But that's not gonna help long term anyway.

[00:50:00] Why is Johnny behaving this way?

[00:50:02] Why is Susie out of her mind?

[00:50:05] Yeah.

[00:50:06] Oh, oh!

[00:50:13] When it becomes necessary to use corporal punishment,

[00:50:16] it shall be administered so that there can be

[00:50:17] no chance of bodily injury or harm.

[00:50:19] The policy says striking a student on the head

[00:50:22] or face is not permitted.

[00:50:26] Sweet!

[00:50:28] Jesus.

[00:50:30] In Missouri, periodic efforts to ban corporal punishment

[00:50:33] schools have failed to gain traction in the legislature.

[00:50:36] The state does not track which districts allow spanking.

[00:50:39] Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

[00:50:43] One Connecticut Democrat is pushing for a ban

[00:50:46] and he calls it barbaric practice

[00:50:47] that allows teachers and administrators to be...

[00:50:49] Here's the thing.

[00:50:51] They say, okay, you can't hit me in the head or the face.

[00:50:54] Thank you.

[00:50:54] Thanks.

[00:50:56] But if you say bend over, I'm gonna smack you in the ass.

[00:50:59] You could really hurt their back.

[00:51:02] Their spine, your tailbone.

[00:51:04] If you break your tailbone it hurts like shit.

[00:51:05] I've broken it many a time.

[00:51:11] Who's hitting me?

[00:51:12] Right.

[00:51:13] The angry teacher or the superintendent

[00:51:16] who's not as pissed is gonna come down and beat me.

[00:51:18] My, yi, yi, sorry.

[00:51:21] Okay, this is my worst nightmare.

[00:51:23] Next story, moving on.

[00:51:24] This is why...

[00:51:27] Yep.

[00:51:29] I'm gonna call my brothers and sisters

[00:51:31] and see if anybody's hitting their kids.

[00:51:32] Well, they're not in the right school district.

[00:51:35] But I've never asked if it's...

[00:51:36] Or would they vote for it?

[00:51:39] This is my biggest nightmare.

[00:51:41] This is why you will never see me in the tunnel.

[00:51:43] What is the tunnel?

[00:51:45] The tunnel that goes from England to France.

[00:51:47] But it goes under the sea

[00:51:51] and that's why I would never get in it.

[00:51:53] Because I don't like the idea.

[00:51:56] Well, I don't like the idea of a lot of deaths

[00:51:58] but I really don't like the idea of being underwater

[00:52:02] and knowing it's happening and you're trapped

[00:52:07] and then water comes and you're dead.

[00:52:10] I don't...

[00:52:12] It's just something...

[00:52:14] Passengers traveling from France to England

[00:52:16] were evacuated from a Euro tunnel

[00:52:17] underneath English Channel on Tuesday

[00:52:19] before being left stranded for hours.

[00:52:24] And there was no air conditioning.

[00:52:26] It got turned off.

[00:52:28] So now you're hot.

[00:52:29] A train is broken down in the tunnel

[00:52:30] and we are in the process of transferring customers

[00:52:32] to a separate passenger shuttle via the service tunnel

[00:52:35] to return to our Folk Stone terminal.

[00:52:39] We apologize sincerely for this inconvenience.

[00:52:42] Euro tunnel, Le Shuttle runs trains

[00:52:44] that carry passengers and freight vehicles

[00:52:46] through a tunnel between England and France.

[00:52:49] What's weird is the picture that I'm looking of of this.

[00:52:51] I don't know where they're at

[00:52:52] but I don't even see anywhere to sit.

[00:52:55] They're all just standing.

[00:52:57] The breakdown effect was affected

[00:52:59] about 3 p.m. 50 local time from Calis, France

[00:53:02] to Folk Stone, England,

[00:53:04] which was carrying hundreds of people

[00:53:06] as well as several dogs.

[00:53:10] Passenger Michael So-and-So told about the experience.

[00:53:13] We got on the 350 crossing approximately 10 minutes

[00:53:16] and the lights went out and the trains stopped.

[00:53:21] We were told they needed to investigate it

[00:53:22] in issue with the wheels.

[00:53:23] It took approximately an hour and a half

[00:53:25] for them to investigate and obviously not find anything.

[00:53:28] Then they reset things and set off for another five minutes.

[00:53:32] It happened again at which time

[00:53:34] we waited a further couple hours to decide

[00:53:37] they couldn't see a problem

[00:53:38] but we had to evacuate the train to another train.

[00:53:41] They were then evacuated through an emergency link

[00:53:43] to the service tunnel walking around for 10 minutes

[00:53:47] until they reached another train.

[00:53:49] Further issues with the train

[00:53:50] meant they finally arrived six hours later.

[00:53:54] Oh no.

[00:53:56] There's gotta be a ferry.

[00:53:58] I'm not getting, I'm not going under the ocean

[00:54:00] or the channel or the sea or a lake

[00:54:03] or I don't even like it in New York.

[00:54:07] I don't like it.

[00:54:08] The Holland Tunnel, I don't like it.

[00:54:11] It's also extremely claustrophobic like the Holland Tunnel.

[00:54:14] Like if there's one accident forget it.

[00:54:17] I don't like it.

[00:54:18] It's too scary, way too scary.

[00:54:20] Um.

[00:54:25] This makes, this makes me laugh

[00:54:27] and now we have to decide should we do this?

[00:54:31] I'm gonna have another potato chips

[00:54:32] because I don't eat breakfast.

[00:54:34] Excuse me why I much on potato chips.

[00:54:37] Two Hungarian weather service officials

[00:54:39] were fired after the wrong forecast.

[00:54:42] What?

[00:54:43] What?

[00:54:45] Now when I say this,

[00:54:48] I don't mean any of my friends at the Weather Channel

[00:54:50] because they're awesome.

[00:54:54] Oh, my local weather friends.

[00:54:58] I have one weather guy on Twitter, Matt.

[00:55:00] I love him.

[00:55:01] He was in Omaha, he moved.

[00:55:02] He's in Minnesota somewhere I think.

[00:55:04] Yes, he's in Minnesota.

[00:55:09] I invited him to the Welch Minnesota show.

[00:55:12] He can't come, he'll be back in Omaha that weekend.

[00:55:14] Oh, the irony.

[00:55:19] No, this just makes me laugh

[00:55:21] because somebody finally got so pissed off.

[00:55:23] There's been a lot of weather shit

[00:55:25] where they've told me it's gonna be pouring down rain

[00:55:26] and I canceled golf or fishing

[00:55:29] and it didn't rain at all.

[00:55:32] But instead of firing people,

[00:55:34] I've just gotten comfortable of ignoring it.

[00:55:39] I just ignore them

[00:55:40] unless it's gonna be like a tornado

[00:55:42] or a hurricane and I'm down there or something.

[00:55:47] Two top officials with Hungary's national meteorologist,

[00:55:51] I can't say the word.

[00:55:54] The weather's meteorological surface weather.

[00:55:58] We're fired Monday after severe storms

[00:56:01] they had forecasted on the capital,

[00:56:03] on the country's most important national holiday

[00:56:06] did not materialize.

[00:56:07] No!

[00:56:08] Instead, they passed to the south.

[00:56:12] The forecast called for intense storms

[00:56:14] in Budapest around 9 p.m.

[00:56:16] According to reporting from the AP,

[00:56:18] leading organizers to postpone

[00:56:20] a massive annual fireworks display.

[00:56:23] Fireworks show celebrating St. Stephen's Day,

[00:56:26] a holiday that marks the country's founding

[00:56:28] is usually watched by more than a million people.

[00:56:31] After the errant forecast,

[00:56:32] Hungarian media criticized the agency.

[00:56:35] The NMS issued an apology on its Facebook page the next day

[00:56:39] but it was too late to save the jobs

[00:56:41] of the agency's chief, Camelia

[00:56:43] and her deputy, Gila.

[00:56:46] Oh my gosh.

[00:56:47] Mm-hmm.

[00:56:48] A Tuesday morning, 17 agency leaders again

[00:56:51] posted a statement on the Facebook page

[00:56:53] to demand that their fired colleagues

[00:56:56] be reinstated as soon as possible

[00:56:57] saying the firings were politically motivated

[00:57:00] politics in weather

[00:57:06] and that the forecast was issued

[00:57:08] based on the best possible information at the time.

[00:57:10] In our view, that despite considerable pressure

[00:57:13] from decision makers,

[00:57:14] our colleagues provided the best of their knowledge

[00:57:16] and are not responsible for any alleged actual damage.

[00:57:20] Bob Ryan, former president of the American Weather Society

[00:57:24] told The Washington Post that the fiery sense

[00:57:26] of chilling message to professional scientists.

[00:57:29] I think it's outrageous.

[00:57:30] And now makes every forecaster working in Hungary

[00:57:32] frightened that they may lose their job

[00:57:34] because of a wrong forecast.

[00:57:36] Well if I was a forecaster person in Hungary

[00:57:38] every time I said something I'd go,

[00:57:40] I'd be like Trump, I'm nothing.

[00:57:43] Many people say it's gonna rain on Saturday.

[00:57:48] And then I'd have my computer, my computer say

[00:57:51] it's gonna rain on Saturday.

[00:57:54] I think it's outrageous.

[00:57:56] Makes every, they may lose their job.

[00:58:02] Matt Lanza who runs Houston Space Weather

[00:58:05] said the inherent complexities of weather

[00:58:06] make a completely accurate forecast nearly impossible.

[00:58:09] Like anyone a meteorologist should be a heldagonable

[00:58:11] for their performance at work.

[00:58:13] But unless they carried out their duties

[00:58:15] in a negligent or insubordinate manner

[00:58:17] it would be unjustifiable to fire a forecaster

[00:58:19] based on that single forecast.

[00:58:21] This is hardly the first time the scientists

[00:58:24] have faced pressure from their government

[00:58:25] during Sharpie Gate when President Donald Trump

[00:58:29] displayed a doctored forecast of 2019's hurricane Dorian

[00:58:33] several officials from the National Oceanic

[00:58:37] and Atmospheric Administration feared

[00:58:39] that they might be fired for standing by their policy.

[00:58:42] Trump had tweeted erroneously that Alabama

[00:58:45] could be in the path of the storm.

[00:58:47] A decision he and his members stood by

[00:58:49] after they changed the map.

[00:58:52] Just kidding, I forgot that.

[00:58:56] Now here's, I used to do the joke of my act.

[00:59:04] It's even people always go oh it'd be so easy

[00:59:07] to have an old comedian joke.

[00:59:09] Weatherman in San Diego, hey it's 17,

[00:59:11] it's only 75 and sunny every day.

[00:59:14] True that.

[00:59:15] But I used to do a joke and if there's any sites

[00:59:18] while it was just out there don't take it personally.

[00:59:20] I'm just saying that to me is the easiest job

[00:59:23] in the world because you don't have to predict anything,

[00:59:24] you just confirm it.

[00:59:26] Nobody ever, one guy, and it's so funny

[00:59:29] because I was talking to some of my friends

[00:59:32] from Southern Missouri, there was a guy in 1992

[00:59:36] who predicted that the New Madrid fault

[00:59:39] which is an earthquake fault line

[00:59:41] that runs through Missouri down to Memphis.

[00:59:45] Whenever it went off in the 1800s,

[00:59:47] it changed the course of the Mississippi.

[00:59:48] The Mississippi according to people

[00:59:50] was flowing backwards for a while.

[00:59:52] But there were just like, there weren't that many people

[00:59:54] here, there weren't that many structures,

[00:59:55] so not a lot of people died.

[00:59:57] He told everybody in the Midwest that this earth,

[01:00:00] my mom made us wrap every single piece of dishes,

[01:00:03] every dish in the house whether it's China

[01:00:05] or shitty place, it didn't matter.

[01:00:07] And then we put them on boxes

[01:00:08] on top of the dining room table.

[01:00:09] I go, mom, if there's gonna be like a 9.9 earthquake,

[01:00:12] you understand the whole house is coming down

[01:00:14] so I don't understand why we just wrapped up coffee cups

[01:00:17] like fancy.

[01:00:19] Well, she believed him.

[01:00:21] Well, nothing happened.

[01:00:23] But he's the only guy I know, every time in LA

[01:00:26] when there would be an earthquake,

[01:00:28] they'd go let's go live to the UCLA seismology center

[01:00:31] and there'd just be two dudes, super weather nerds

[01:00:33] sitting there going, yep, that was a 4.8,

[01:00:36] says it right here on the computer.

[01:00:39] Hey guys, is there gonna be another one?

[01:00:40] Probably some little ones are gonna rumble for a little bit

[01:00:43] and then we'll be right here making some money.

[01:00:47] Call me back if you need anything.

[01:00:50] Can you imagine if we started firing weather people

[01:00:52] because they were wrong?

[01:00:55] These people should have ignored the weather people

[01:00:59] and just had the fireworks anyway.

[01:01:01] You gotta move forward.

[01:01:03] More news.

[01:01:05] The most expensive baseball card in history

[01:01:07] just sold for $12.6 million.

[01:01:09] What?

[01:01:10] Do you wanna guess who it's of?

[01:01:11] Or did you see the headline?

[01:01:13] Uh, no I've been busy.

[01:01:15] Um.

[01:01:17] Dig out your old baseball cards

[01:01:19] that might be worth eight figures.

[01:01:20] Sandy Kofax.

[01:01:21] Sandy Kofax, no, Mickey Mantle.

[01:01:24] His baseball card from 1952

[01:01:26] just sold for a draw dropping $12,600,000

[01:01:29] early Sunday morning.

[01:01:31] Oh my God.

[01:01:32] I still don't know what you do with it.

[01:01:34] I don't get it.

[01:01:37] It's the highest in a year.

[01:01:38] The price almost doubled the previous record

[01:01:40] for a baseball card set by what?

[01:01:41] The Honest Wagner, which we talked about

[01:01:43] on this bubble's cast.

[01:01:45] So for $6.6 million, it also beat the record

[01:01:48] for any item of sports memorabilia

[01:01:50] bypassing the $9.3 million sale

[01:01:53] of Diego Maradona's famous Hand of God Jersey.

[01:01:57] The Mickey Mantle card is especially valuable

[01:01:59] because it's so well preserved.

[01:02:00] The card was graded Mint plus 9.5.

[01:02:04] 9.5.

[01:02:06] Yeah, Mantle plans 70 years for the Yankees

[01:02:09] and was inducted as a baseball hall in 1974.

[01:02:14] We always knew this card would shed a record.

[01:02:17] God, 1952 my dad could have had one of those.

[01:02:21] Yeah, I'm gonna go look at through their old chip

[01:02:23] and he's got some bad baseball cards.

[01:02:24] Yeah, this article, this makes me laugh really hard.

[01:02:32] Now, I have not been to a Six Flags amusement park

[01:02:39] since I was probably 14.

[01:02:42] Because we moved down to the Ozarks

[01:02:45] and they don't have a Six Flags.

[01:02:47] They don't have any roller coasters to my knowledge

[01:02:49] except at minor mics and those are for babies.

[01:02:54] You'd have to go to Branson or something,

[01:02:56] I don't know, but anyway.

[01:02:58] When we lived closer to St. Louis up by Six Flags,

[01:03:03] you could buy a season pass at Six Flags.

[01:03:05] At the time they were not that much money.

[01:03:07] And I mean, if I saved them,

[01:03:11] then my parents would like match it or whatever, I don't know.

[01:03:13] I had to contribute a lot.

[01:03:16] I don't even wanna tell you what I did to make money.

[01:03:19] They used to flick cigarette butts off the A-frame balcony

[01:03:22] and then everyone that I collected in the yard,

[01:03:24] I got a nickel.

[01:03:26] And to tell you how much they smoked,

[01:03:28] that was enough to get me a Six Flags day bag.

[01:03:30] Six Flags!

[01:03:34] He smoke, she smoke, cool.

[01:03:36] I'm like, bang!

[01:03:37] I'm like, there's another nickel, keep going, smoke five more.

[01:03:42] Six Flags, the CEO has just realized in 2022

[01:03:48] Six Flags gets treated like a daycare center for teenagers

[01:03:51] and the CEO is not happy.

[01:03:54] Dude!

[01:03:55] This has been going on, I'm 154 years old.

[01:03:58] This has been going on since I was a child.

[01:04:00] Are you really just clicking in?

[01:04:03] Yes, this is what my mom,

[01:04:04] if we could talk my mom into taking us.

[01:04:06] It was a good 40 minutes away.

[01:04:09] She would drop us off at eight in the morning

[01:04:11] and not come back till five.

[01:04:13] Yeah, but once you were in,

[01:04:14] it wasn't like Disney World where you had to have ticket.

[01:04:19] Once you're in, you're in.

[01:04:20] So you could ride everything you wanted to ride

[01:04:22] and...

[01:04:23] See you later.

[01:04:24] Mm-hmm.

[01:04:27] If you're a teenage roller coaster enthusiast

[01:04:29] who takes advantage for free

[01:04:30] of discounted tickets to abusive bars,

[01:04:32] Six Flags is making it clear

[01:04:33] that they don't want your business.

[01:04:35] Oh!

[01:04:36] The nation's largest regional theme bar company,

[01:04:39] which operates Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia

[01:04:41] and 26 other parts across North America

[01:04:44] is trying to attract more middle class families

[01:04:46] by raising ticket prices,

[01:04:48] upgrading its food and beverage and amenities.

[01:04:50] At the same time, it's eliminating promotional deals,

[01:04:53] freebies, discounts and all you can eat meal packages

[01:04:55] that have drawn teenagers and lower income park goers.

[01:04:59] Boy, they're not holding back on this.

[01:05:01] Poor people.

[01:05:03] Get your ass out.

[01:05:04] Boom!

[01:05:05] Too many discounts and promotional deals

[01:05:07] have turned the amusement parks

[01:05:08] into a cheap daycare center for teenagers.

[01:05:12] This is, their CEO just realized that.

[01:05:15] He wants to put an end to that

[01:05:16] with what he calls pre...

[01:05:19] Premiumization, it's not even a word.

[01:05:25] Premiumization incentive initiatives.

[01:05:28] Ticket prices have yet to rise

[01:05:30] at Six Flags Magic Mountain,

[01:05:32] but other parks have imposed higher prices

[01:05:34] and canceled discounted food.

[01:05:35] Raising prices is no easy task for a company

[01:05:37] that has trained customers to expect discounts.

[01:05:39] In 2022, we have shocked the system

[01:05:41] with a significant increase in our ticket prices.

[01:05:43] Daily tickets and annual passes,

[01:05:45] very depending on access they offer,

[01:05:48] but in the first six months of 2022,

[01:05:50] you don't need it and all that.

[01:05:51] They're mad about gangs too.

[01:05:53] Gangs?

[01:05:54] Yeah, I used to hear that out in LA

[01:05:56] that the Magic Mountain one could get rough at night.

[01:05:59] But I was also 30 years old

[01:06:01] and I'm like, I do not plan on going up to Magic.

[01:06:03] Several fights broke out at Not Sparing Farm.

[01:06:06] No!

[01:06:07] What?

[01:06:08] Promoting the park to adopt a chaperone policy

[01:06:11] that requires all visitors 17 or younger

[01:06:13] to be accompanied by an adult 21

[01:06:15] or older on weekends

[01:06:16] through its after hours Halloween event.

[01:06:19] A fight also broke out in the Magic Kingdom

[01:06:21] and Walt Disney World over allegations of line cutting.

[01:06:30] You know where I'll be?

[01:06:32] I'll be in the around the world 100 bars.

[01:06:35] That's where mom will be.

[01:06:37] Mom will be sitting in Germany enjoying a nice stein,

[01:06:40] souvenir stein of some sort of German beer.

[01:06:45] After pandemic closures that last as long as 13 months,

[01:06:47] many theme parks are now reporting attendance,

[01:06:50] numbers in line with 2019.

[01:06:54] Oh, it's Six Flags Magic Mountain.

[01:06:56] The park last month opened its 20th roller coaster

[01:06:58] of Wonder Woman Flight of Courage,

[01:07:00] the tallest and longest single rail coaster in the world.

[01:07:03] The park's Halloween celebration starting in December

[01:07:05] will feature a new home at house.

[01:07:07] So they're trying to upgrade the parks

[01:07:08] and I think they don't wanna say gangs

[01:07:11] but I think that's what part of their problem.

[01:07:21] Yeah, the whole point of them is doing it for money.

[01:07:23] The parks truly don't care about a teen

[01:07:25] or if a family goes it boils down to maximizing profits.

[01:07:28] Oh wow.

[01:07:30] Yeah.

[01:07:32] I didn't know you could get these all you can eat meal plans.

[01:07:35] Like my mom would get,

[01:07:36] well you could take your lunch into Six Flags

[01:07:37] when I was a kid.

[01:07:39] Yep.

[01:07:40] That's kinda nice.

[01:07:40] I think I had to buy the soda

[01:07:43] but I do remember dragging a bag around

[01:07:45] and then thinking,

[01:07:46] fuck it I'm just gonna eat now,

[01:07:47] I don't wanna carry this bag.

[01:07:49] I have to get in line for the mind train.

[01:07:51] Come on.

[01:07:53] How fast can I run while I'm holding

[01:07:54] this brown paper bag?

[01:07:56] I really do think they let us bring our own food,

[01:07:58] I remember that.

[01:08:01] To attract the park,

[01:08:03] to upgrade the park's image

[01:08:04] and draw higher income visitors,

[01:08:06] he said Six Flags may have to invest in new attractions.

[01:08:08] The type of multi-billion dollar rides offered

[01:08:10] at competitors like Disney,

[01:08:11] Landon Universal Studios, Hollywood.

[01:08:13] They don't have that kind of budget.

[01:08:15] That's a problem man.

[01:08:16] That's ridiculous.

[01:08:20] There you go.

[01:08:21] It's just,

[01:08:21] just watch out if you're a Six Flags person.

[01:08:24] You got it.

[01:08:24] Yeah.

[01:08:25] Yeah.

[01:08:26] They're coming after you.

[01:08:28] All you can eat badges

[01:08:30] and...

[01:08:33] I think they don't want teenagers

[01:08:36] because sometimes when you have teenagers

[01:08:37] you get gangs and then,

[01:08:39] you know, fighting and...

[01:08:43] Okay.

[01:08:45] China is,

[01:08:46] okay this is in our drought category.

[01:08:49] China is seeding clouds

[01:08:50] to replenish its shrinking Yangtze River.

[01:08:54] Come on.

[01:08:55] What does that mean?

[01:08:56] I'm gonna tell you what it's gonna mean.

[01:08:58] Even when I'm done reading this,

[01:08:59] neither you nor I are gonna understand what's happening

[01:09:02] but we do have some science termites,

[01:09:04] they'll know.

[01:09:05] Science termites.

[01:09:06] Maybe they can tell me on YouTube

[01:09:07] in a dumb-down version

[01:09:08] because even after I read this article

[01:09:10] I was like,

[01:09:11] what?

[01:09:13] You get a deep what?

[01:09:15] Chinese planes are firing rods into the sky

[01:09:18] to bring more rainfall to its crucial Yangtze River

[01:09:20] which is dried up in parts.

[01:09:22] As swaths of the nation fall into drought

[01:09:24] and grapple with the worst heat wave on record,

[01:09:26] Nostradamus told us all this.

[01:09:28] I don't know why nobody doesn't go

[01:09:30] refer to Frenchy French and go...

[01:09:32] He did.

[01:09:33] What did he say?

[01:09:34] Right?

[01:09:35] Several regions have launched weather modification programs

[01:09:39] but with cloud cover too thin,

[01:09:41] operations in some drought ravaged parts

[01:09:42] of the river's basin have remained on standby.

[01:09:45] The Ministry of Water Resources said to notice

[01:09:47] Wednesday that the drought throughout the Yangtze

[01:09:49] it was adversely affecting drinking water

[01:09:52] of rural people in livestock and the growth of crops.

[01:09:55] On Wednesday,

[01:09:56] they,

[01:09:57] the China's hubby, hubby, hubby promise

[01:10:02] became the latest to announce it

[01:10:04] with seed cloud using silver,

[01:10:08] this is how they do it,

[01:10:09] silver iodide rods

[01:10:12] to induce rainfall.

[01:10:14] The rods which are typically the size of cigarettes

[01:10:17] are shot into existing clouds to help form ice crystals.

[01:10:20] The crystals then help the cloud produce more rain,

[01:10:23] making its moisture content heavier

[01:10:25] and more likely to be released.

[01:10:28] Yeah, I don't get that.

[01:10:30] Cloud seed,

[01:10:32] this practice has been going on since the 1940s

[01:10:35] and China has the biggest program in the world.

[01:10:37] It's used seeding ahead of the Beijing Olympics

[01:10:39] to ensure dry weather for the event

[01:10:41] and the technique can also be used

[01:10:43] to induce snowfall or soften hail.

[01:10:47] Well, I don't know.

[01:10:48] Then it just keeps going on about their drought.

[01:10:51] I didn't know you could do that.

[01:10:52] I'm gonna go watch a video.

[01:10:55] Yeah, well, I did think.

[01:10:57] Why stop pollution?

[01:10:59] And you can fuck with the weather.

[01:11:01] I watched a thing a thousand years ago.

[01:11:03] I would many, many, many years ago.

[01:11:05] I was going on Joe Rogan's podcast

[01:11:06] and I knew when he was still in LA

[01:11:08] and I knew that he had a show

[01:11:10] about proving conspiracy theories.

[01:11:12] Like, you know, one of them,

[01:11:14] I remember an episode I watched

[01:11:15] was can the government create weather?

[01:11:17] But he would get real scientists and stuff.

[01:11:19] He wasn't just, you know, sitting around like I do,

[01:11:23] making things, just guessing.

[01:11:27] And I watched that.

[01:11:30] They were trying to make a tornado if I remember right

[01:11:32] and it just didn't work.

[01:11:33] Mine never heard about seeding clouds.

[01:11:36] Seeding clouds.

[01:11:37] Mm-hmm.

[01:11:40] They should share that technology.

[01:11:41] They should, but that doesn't mean they will.

[01:11:46] Okay, two things.

[01:11:48] These are both funny and feel-good stories

[01:11:50] before we move on to our minds.

[01:11:54] This one makes me laugh.

[01:11:55] A seal, like a seal from the water.

[01:11:59] Baby seal.

[01:12:00] A baby seal.

[01:12:01] Breaks into New Zealand home, traumatizes cat

[01:12:04] and hangs out on the couch.

[01:12:06] What?

[01:12:07] Young fur seals slipped into a marine biologist home

[01:12:10] through a cat flap

[01:12:12] before spending more than two hours inside.

[01:12:15] A curious young seal has been returned to the sea

[01:12:18] after breaking into a New Zealand home,

[01:12:19] harassing the resident cat

[01:12:21] and hanging out in the hallway for a couple hours

[01:12:23] while the children slept upstairs

[01:12:24] and miraculously ruining nothing.

[01:12:27] The Ross family were more than a little bit surprised

[01:12:31] to find that the New Zealand fur seal in their home,

[01:12:33] which is about 150 meters from the shore

[01:12:35] on Wednesday morning.

[01:12:36] Philip Ross, who happens to be a marine biologist,

[01:12:39] said it was unfortunate he was the only one

[01:12:42] not home at the time.

[01:12:43] The big joke in the family is,

[01:12:45] the only family emergency where I would be useful,

[01:12:49] I really missed my time to shine

[01:12:51] because he could have gotten it out.

[01:12:52] Ross said his wife rose just before 6 a.m. Wednesday

[01:12:56] to go to the gym

[01:12:58] and she got in the car,

[01:12:59] something barked from underneath and shuffled away.

[01:13:02] She thought it was someone's dog

[01:13:03] and really didn't think much of it.

[01:13:04] She returned at 7 a.m. to find the door,

[01:13:07] opening the door to find a cute little seal.

[01:13:09] He got a bit of a fright

[01:13:10] and humped his weight on the hallway into the spare bedroom.

[01:13:13] She said he managed to make his way through two cat doors

[01:13:16] to get into the home.

[01:13:18] She believes it encountered the family's territorial cat,

[01:13:20] Coco, just outside, just after Jen had left the property

[01:13:24] and had likely been inside for an hour.

[01:13:26] The cat would have gone to defend its territory

[01:13:28] and obviously the seal wasn't as intimidated

[01:13:30] as some dogs are,

[01:13:31] so Coco must have bolted around to the side of the house

[01:13:34] into the cat flap.

[01:13:36] Jen woke their two children to come see their new pet.

[01:13:38] They thought it was pretty cool and exciting

[01:13:40] and were totally oblivious to the fact

[01:13:42] not many of their mates would have seals

[01:13:43] come to visit them in their house.

[01:13:45] The spiel-scented seals spent time in the spare room

[01:13:47] and on the couch before Jen managed to usher it

[01:13:50] out the front door into the garden.

[01:13:51] The Department of Conservation Ranger took him back

[01:13:56] to the sea.

[01:13:58] They nicknamed him Oscar

[01:13:59] and a long tradition of giving seals that name

[01:14:02] seals that name in the community

[01:14:03] proved to be a polite company.

[01:14:05] I think I would have been,

[01:14:07] oh, it didn't even go to the bathroom in the house.

[01:14:13] Meanwhile, Coco the cat had ran off to the neighbor's house

[01:14:17] on returning, it refused to go downstairs

[01:14:19] because it was clearly traumatized.

[01:14:21] It was like,

[01:14:22] done with this shit.

[01:14:23] Coco was like, there's a fucking alien in this house

[01:14:27] and no one's doing anything about it.

[01:14:29] Stop feeding it.

[01:14:30] Oh, how cute would that be though?

[01:14:35] That's awesome.

[01:14:36] And here's your super feel good story.

[01:14:38] Oh, I like that one.

[01:14:39] Yeah, that one's fun.

[01:14:41] I would like to wake up and find a seal.

[01:14:43] That would be super fun.

[01:14:45] Oh, oh.

[01:14:48] This is great.

[01:14:49] A dog was found 500 feet underground months

[01:14:53] after it vanished into a Missouri cave.

[01:14:57] Abby, a 13 year old dog who was missing

[01:14:59] for two months had been rescued

[01:15:00] after Cavers pulled her out of a complex cave system.

[01:15:04] Rick Haley and Gene Jerry Keane,

[01:15:06] both of who have specialized in cave rescue training,

[01:15:10] led the operation inside Missouri's second largest cave.

[01:15:14] Somebody told USA on Sunday,

[01:15:16] they used duffel bags and blankets to protect the dog

[01:15:18] as they maneuvered their way out.

[01:15:19] Abby was moved 500 feet

[01:15:21] through the very tight awkward vertical climb

[01:15:23] handing her hand to hand upward to the surface.

[01:15:27] On Saturday, he returned to the cave

[01:15:30] and found Abby's footprints near the entrance

[01:15:32] she likely came in, a 12 foot deep pit.

[01:15:34] She was 200 feet inside the main passage.

[01:15:37] Haley said the owner had been reported

[01:15:39] to have been missing since June 9th,

[01:15:40] and she could've been in the cave for up to two months.

[01:15:43] Wow.

[01:15:44] What did she eat?

[01:15:45] Interesting.

[01:15:48] That's cool.

[01:15:51] Although she's in poor shape and male nurse,

[01:15:52] the dog had no apparent injuries.

[01:15:55] Beroam Moore Cave is about 25 miles long.

[01:15:58] I'm from Missouri and I've never heard of that cave.

[01:16:01] Now I'm gonna have to go look it up.

[01:16:03] That's great.

[01:16:04] Two months, you think your dog's dead by then?

[01:16:06] I'm sure.

[01:16:08] All right, turn around.

[01:16:10] I'm gonna seek a home.

[01:16:12] I'm gonna save these for next.

[01:16:13] I will say go look at this before I go.

[01:16:15] Another good one.

[01:16:16] Meet Lucky Blue, one in two million bright blue lobster

[01:16:19] caught by father and son in Maine.

[01:16:21] This thing is electric blue.

[01:16:23] The crustacean named Lucky Blue

[01:16:25] was caught in the oceans beyond Peaks Island

[01:16:27] off the southeast portion of the state of Maine.

[01:16:32] You gotta just look at the picture.

[01:16:34] We'll put it in the show notes, also known as the schnotes.

[01:16:38] They've caught other colors too, but they've never,

[01:16:42] I think they've caught Cheddar,

[01:16:45] the crustacean almost became dinner.

[01:16:47] Yeah, I remember seeing that one.

[01:16:49] The lobster is now in a tank on display

[01:16:51] at his mother's waterfront restaurant in Portland,

[01:16:54] Becky's Diner.

[01:16:54] If you wanna go see it.

[01:16:55] Cool.

[01:16:56] I work in Portland.

[01:16:57] I'm going down there.

[01:16:59] We were throwing it in,

[01:17:01] we were throwing it back in two weeks,

[01:17:03] but for now that we thought the kids

[01:17:04] and would you join in the aquarium close to home.

[01:17:06] We named him Lucky Blue because he's going to be back

[01:17:08] in the water and not be boiled.

[01:17:12] Blue lobsters are one in two million.

[01:17:14] Wow.

[01:17:15] Yep.

[01:17:16] Better than a pool tab.

[01:17:17] Yeah, way probably easier to get a blue lobster

[01:17:20] than win money at my pool tabs.

[01:17:21] I won $4, that was it.

[01:17:24] That was terrible.

[01:17:25] $4?

[01:17:25] $4, I spent 40.

[01:17:27] Oh my God.

[01:17:28] Yeah, and I would have spent a lot more

[01:17:29] but I didn't want people to think I had a gambling problem.

[01:17:32] All right termites.

[01:17:33] Ow, something is hurting me.

[01:17:34] Ow, maybe it's that.

[01:17:39] I do have giant earrings on.

[01:17:41] All right termites.

[01:17:43] Wait, I'll tell you where I'm going.

[01:17:45] Okay, she guys wanna come find me on the road.

[01:17:47] Excuse me while I go to my own website.

[01:17:49] What are you doing for Labor Day?

[01:17:51] For Labor Day,

[01:17:52] I'm gonna be entertaining many, many family members.

[01:17:57] I'll be driving a boat in a circle

[01:18:00] with a tube on the back.

[01:18:01] Nice.

[01:18:02] Yes.

[01:18:05] And then it's time to get back to work work.

[01:18:08] Let's see.

[01:18:09] Are you excited about Niagara Falls?

[01:18:10] I'm very excited about Niagara Falls.

[01:18:12] I bought my tickets to everything

[01:18:14] because my brother goes,

[01:18:16] you always do the most touristy things.

[01:18:18] Yes Pat, there's a reason people all want to do it.

[01:18:22] There's a reason there's not a touristy thing

[01:18:24] say in the middle of Kansas.

[01:18:27] I think the biggest ball of twine is there.

[01:18:29] I'm not, I'm not.

[01:18:31] Ball of twine?

[01:18:32] Yeah, and there's also the Barbora Museum

[01:18:34] somewhere around there.

[01:18:35] Barbara Museum.

[01:18:37] I'll find anything to go to,

[01:18:39] but I'm like, Patrick,

[01:18:40] there's a reason it became a place

[01:18:42] where people wanted to go.

[01:18:43] It was like the Barbora Museum.

[01:18:45] Yeah, about $100 in Kansas or Nebraska.

[01:18:48] Oh my God, yeah.

[01:18:50] Where is it?

[01:18:51] Oh, hang on, I gotta click.

[01:18:53] And the world's biggest ball of twines out there too.

[01:18:57] Niagara, then Dallas, that's sold out though.

[01:19:00] Austin, that's September 17th.

[01:19:03] Chattanooga Choo Choo.

[01:19:05] September, so where is it?

[01:19:08] The Kansas Barbora Museum.

[01:19:09] The Kansas Barbora Museum, see?

[01:19:11] I know my shit.

[01:19:13] It's in La Crosse, I know.

[01:19:15] There's also an Evil Caneville Museum

[01:19:17] somewhere in Nebraska.

[01:19:18] There's a lot of flags in this store.

[01:19:20] A lot of flags.

[01:19:21] Chattanooga Choo Choo.

[01:19:23] September, Chattanooga is an up and coming city.

[01:19:26] People don't know enough about it.

[01:19:28] I love it.

[01:19:29] I interrupted you, people.

[01:19:30] No, it's fine.

[01:19:31] September 23rd, Knoxville.

[01:19:33] Knoxville, September 24th, Asheville.

[01:19:36] This is a great run.

[01:19:38] Then we go into October.

[01:19:39] Rochester, New York, Ithaca, New York, Wilkes Bar, PA.

[01:19:45] Might stay over and go to that Buffalo game.

[01:19:47] Buffalo Steelers?

[01:19:48] Buffalo Steelers.

[01:19:50] Well, maybe.

[01:19:50] I've never been to a Bill's game.

[01:19:51] Maybe the termites will invite me to a tailgate.

[01:19:53] Maybe some termites would invite me to a tailgate.

[01:19:57] October 14th, Fort Collins.

[01:19:58] Then Colorado Springs.

[01:20:00] Then Grand Rapids, Michigan.

[01:20:01] Royal Oak, first shows at the Royal Oak Music Theater.

[01:20:04] First one sold out.

[01:20:05] Second one, there's still tickets.

[01:20:07] Dayton, Ohio, Indy, Orville, California.

[01:20:12] Gold Country Casino Resort.

[01:20:16] Warren, Ohio, Cincinnati.

[01:20:19] Where's my dad says, Cincinnati?

[01:20:21] Welch, Minnesota.

[01:20:22] El Cajon, California.

[01:20:25] Riverside, California.

[01:20:27] I can't wait for Riverside either

[01:20:29] because it was a really great Mexican restaurant there.

[01:20:31] Fun.

[01:20:32] Okay, kids, okay, termites.

[01:20:37] All the tickets for the spring

[01:20:38] will go on sale September 13th.

[01:20:42] January through June.

[01:20:44] And the special will be on Amazon

[01:20:46] on January 13th, barring any issues.

[01:20:51] But I think it's fine, seems fine.

[01:20:53] That'll be good, because people won't have.

[01:20:54] They said December, I'm like, no.

[01:20:57] People have too much to do in December.

[01:20:59] They have work parties,

[01:21:00] they gotta get ready for Christmas, people.

[01:21:02] There's holiday things.

[01:21:03] You can't even hardly work in December anymore.

[01:21:05] I'll work the first weekend.

[01:21:07] I know that bothers you.

[01:21:08] It bothers me because here's the thing.

[01:21:10] I am all about let's all fuck off

[01:21:12] and not do anything hard.

[01:21:14] I'm the first lady in line for that.

[01:21:16] But it's getting ridiculous.

[01:21:18] Like, oh well don't work on Halloween

[01:21:19] because now the Halloween people,

[01:21:21] the parents have parties on Saturdays.

[01:21:24] What?

[01:21:25] Then I have to work around South,

[01:21:27] anywhere in the South,

[01:21:28] I have to work around college football.

[01:21:30] To make sure you do not get a Saturday in the city.

[01:21:33] Like if you were in Atlanta

[01:21:34] when George was playing Alabama or some shit,

[01:21:35] like forget it, no one's coming.

[01:21:37] You have to think about that.

[01:21:38] But December is really good.

[01:21:40] But I get it, I see my siblings with kids.

[01:21:43] So December, even at the Christmas weekend,

[01:21:46] whatever that is, whichever one that falls on.

[01:21:48] The one before that,

[01:21:49] everybody with normal jobs or some sort of work party,

[01:21:53] the work function event, whatever you wanna call it.

[01:21:56] And then the kids, it's their Christmas concert

[01:21:59] or their hoop to do.

[01:22:01] So the first weekend,

[01:22:02] we're still kinda living normal lives, it appears.

[01:22:05] But after that, I mean I'm fine with it.

[01:22:08] It just,

[01:22:10] you know, I'll take the month off, I don't care.

[01:22:13] But if you're out there trying to hustle and make a buck.

[01:22:16] See you in.

[01:22:17] It's all up, I don't have to do that.

[01:22:19] Thank God.

[01:22:21] It just keeps extending.

[01:22:23] Cause then it's New Year's Eve

[01:22:24] and then they all say don't work the weekend

[01:22:26] after New Year's Eve cause nobody has any money

[01:22:28] cause it's spent.

[01:22:30] I'm like, fuck it, I'm working.

[01:22:31] I'm going.

[01:22:32] Somebody's got money.

[01:22:34] Somebody's got anywhere from, what are my tickets?

[01:22:36] Anywhere from 32 to 62 bucks?

[01:22:40] Come on people.

[01:22:43] All right, turn my, that's where I'm going.

[01:22:46] That's where I'll see you fools out on the road.

[01:22:49] And happy Labor Day.

[01:22:52] Have a good one.

[01:22:53] We're going into fall termites.

[01:22:55] We're all soon to be fall termites, football termites.

[01:22:59] When's your draft?

[01:23:00] Fantasy draft is Thursday.

[01:23:01] Whoa!

[01:23:03] Yeah, yeah.

[01:23:05] And for those who can't attend, auto-draft.

[01:23:09] Sad times for you.

[01:23:11] You taking Tom?

[01:23:12] Of course I'm taking Tom Brady.

[01:23:14] He's looking a little skinny lately though.

[01:23:16] I don't know what's happening.

[01:23:17] Look, too thin.

[01:23:18] Yeah?

[01:23:19] And he didn't go to training camp.

[01:23:20] He was missing for 11 days.

[01:23:21] People are like, I think he was on the mass singer.

[01:23:23] If he's on the mass singer, if he did that,

[01:23:25] I will never root for him again

[01:23:27] because you are way above that piece of shit.

[01:23:30] No, no, no, no, no.

[01:23:31] The mass singer is fine for the hoopteas in the loop.

[01:23:33] You are the greatest football player probably alive.

[01:23:35] You don't go on the mass singer.

[01:23:37] Have more pride than that.

[01:23:38] You don't need the money unless your kids absolutely lobbied

[01:23:42] for you to do it.

[01:23:43] But then you tell your kids like my parents would say,

[01:23:45] you don't get to pick my jobs.

[01:23:47] That's what my parents would say.

[01:23:48] Nope.

[01:23:49] Guess what you're not old enough to do?

[01:23:50] Pick my job.

[01:23:51] Go to Six Flags.

[01:23:52] I don't think he was taping the mass singer.

[01:23:57] I think Giselle said we're going on vacation and you know,

[01:24:01] you're...

[01:24:01] You hear that you unretired.

[01:24:03] Nobody gives a shit, honey, if you're retired or not retired,

[01:24:06] whatever you're doing this month.

[01:24:08] Here's what I already booked this wonderful vacation in Thailand.

[01:24:13] It's non-refundable.

[01:24:14] Yeah, it's totally non-refundable.

[01:24:16] We're flying Southwest and no, oh, campy shmampy.

[01:24:23] And here's the thing, Tom's so good he doesn't.

[01:24:26] He doesn't beat camp.

[01:24:28] I mean, you probably should go to be a team player,

[01:24:30] but at the end of the day,

[01:24:32] so I'm bright he doesn't have...

[01:24:34] He's clearly shown us he knows how to throw a ball

[01:24:36] to the right person.

[01:24:37] So guess what?

[01:24:38] You don't feel like we don't want to hurt him?

[01:24:39] Let's leave him over.

[01:24:42] Let's go girls.

[01:24:43] Yeah.

[01:24:44] Shhh.

[01:24:47] Patrick, my home's doesn't have to go in a pre-season game.

[01:24:49] Nope, he's got it.

[01:24:51] There's a lot of you fence sitters though

[01:24:52] that need you get your ass out there.

[01:24:56] You're not good enough.

[01:24:57] I can't wait to hear who you dropped.

[01:25:00] I don't really know after that.

[01:25:02] Well...

[01:25:04] My backup quarterback?

[01:25:05] What did you take?

[01:25:06] I don't know, I gotta see who's available.

[01:25:10] What's better than who's left?

[01:25:12] You know?

[01:25:13] I don't know.

[01:25:16] Who would I like?

[01:25:17] Well, the good ones.

[01:25:19] Josh Allen, Patrick.

[01:25:21] Who's the one?

[01:25:22] San Diego, Herbert, Hubert, Hubert, Hubert, Hubert,

[01:25:26] Hubert, like the video game?

[01:25:28] Hubert.

[01:25:28] San Diego.

[01:25:33] Everybody's, you know, a bit...

[01:25:35] Well, I'll be quiet, but the like people,

[01:25:38] one of my friends was like,

[01:25:39] what's his face who's on the Raiders now?

[01:25:40] The guy from Green Bay.

[01:25:42] Devonte.

[01:25:42] Devonte.

[01:25:44] Devonte had Aaron Rodgers thrown to him.

[01:25:47] I like what's his face?

[01:25:49] Carr.

[01:25:50] Derek Carr.

[01:25:52] But is he Aaron Rodgers?

[01:25:54] Nay-nay.

[01:25:55] He might be the share.

[01:25:56] He is not, no, no, no.

[01:25:58] Devonte's numbers are only as good

[01:26:00] as how many times the ball comes where he can catch it.

[01:26:04] Pick the wide receivers on the teams

[01:26:06] with the best quarterbacks.

[01:26:08] That's my advice to you fantasy people.

[01:26:11] And really, I don't know.

[01:26:13] I don't even know half of what like my brother-in-law

[01:26:16] Matt knows.

[01:26:17] Like Sunday, he's gotta be in front of a computer

[01:26:19] for a solid bunch of hours and he's all in.

[01:26:22] They all attend in person.

[01:26:24] I don't know what, only cause he'll be over at my house.

[01:26:26] He was not going, but usually...

[01:26:29] Yeah, the craziest thing I ever heard too.

[01:26:32] And then I swear I'll shut up.

[01:26:33] There was a fantasy, it was on ESPN.

[01:26:35] There was a fantasy league somewhere in like Omaha

[01:26:38] or somewhere Kansas City maybe.

[01:26:39] And the winner got to pick.

[01:26:48] Yup, and the one guy is like this big beefy kind of Midwest guy

[01:26:53] and the winner made him get Tatiana from Frozen.

[01:26:56] Shut up!

[01:27:00] How funny is that?

[01:27:01] Then I saw another one on Instagram where the guy had lost.

[01:27:04] He was the loser of their league

[01:27:05] and they made him sit in Waffle House and eat pancakes.

[01:27:10] He had to eat like a certain amount, like 90.

[01:27:13] And every one he ate took another minute off his punishment.

[01:27:16] But like he's explaining this to the server chick

[01:27:19] and she's like, what?

[01:27:21] He's like, I'm just trying to let you know

[01:27:22] I'm gonna be here a really long time.

[01:27:24] And I might throw up and she's like...

[01:27:30] My question is how much are you gonna tip

[01:27:31] if you're taking up my booth?

[01:27:34] I won't even be here 24 hours.

[01:27:35] I'm gonna be eight and then there's gonna be

[01:27:37] another lady and another dude and whatever, whatever.

[01:27:39] But you're gonna need to tip hands and leave.

[01:27:41] You're sitting here as a loser.

[01:27:45] All right, termites.

[01:27:46] Go be the last week of summer termites.

[01:27:49] The best you can be.
