Brad Staggs (00:02.742)
Hello, hello. Welcome to this edition of At the Mic. I am your host, Keith Malinak. Boom, there we are. Good to see you. Hope you're warm wherever you are. I know it's a little interesting right now across the country and it's only gonna get colder. Have you seen the way December is supposed to play out? Perfect, I love it. And you gotta get yourself one of these, You got the little At the Mic winter cap.

So send me a DM saying you want one and we'll get it figured out. They're not free. I know. Brad cannot believe that I charge you for that. Anyway, let me get Brad in here. Hi, Brad. Hi. I just thought of something.

charge people you just give it to them I mean I've seen your paychecks

Keith Malinak (01:02.007)
It was like sex.

Keith Malinak (01:06.039)
It digging around.

Keith Malinak (01:11.338)
It's all right. It'll you know what? It's either going to work or it's not.

So yesterday's deep dive was about the weaponizing of ticks and the alpha-gal syndrome that makes you allergic to meat and animal products. Lime disease? It's horrific. the lime disease was a part of that show. If you haven't seen it, it'll be pinned to the top whenever I get around to it, but it's on the YouTube channel. my gosh. So anyway, thank you to Carrie Toms for sharing her horrific experience.

With alpha gal and I mean it can be deadly we had a story about a guy there, but I mentioned the YouTube channel and I'm experimenting right now, and we're actually apparently live on the YouTube channel So if you go that I don't even know what it is at the mic. It's YouTube comm slash At at the mic there you go the little at sign at the mic, okay, you got that

that the

That's a lot of people.

Keith Malinak (02:26.542)
Because Rebecca.

I know Rebecca she has a sick baby so she's not able to make it. It's the Norc. It's the Norc's. Go open your window, open your window. What a lovely setup you got there with the Christmas tree there. Go over to the Instagram page as well. At Jeffy Apologist that there that's the X handle. I'm so confusing. This is the X handle of Gabby. See it is not upside down.

isn't it? Hold on, I have to open my window.

Keith Malinak (02:53.646)
It's upside down look at it. It's upside down

It is not upside down. this is very confusing. It's the Instagram channel for At The Mic Show, run by Gabby, but her X handle is at Jeffy Apolodis. OK. And then at second floor Dallas, that's Wes's X handle. He is the one who runs at themicshow.com, which you can see right there. my gosh. There's a lot to just to say, you know, you get started here.

Or why is that Niffy?

Keith Malinak (03:23.64)
So many things.

Um, let me see here. What else did I want to tell you all about? Uh, Oh, a week from yesterday. So six days from now on that Thursday deep dive, Brad, I'm going to drag your ass back in here. We're going to Kelly in here and saw and, and, uh, see y'all see this is what you get. This is B that would be a wonderful way to start the show. Some days just open up your screen and there's Brad's ass. That's what I get.

and I'll for the show

Brad Staggs (03:55.682)
treated to. No, no, not into it. So, so what I wanted to say is that next week, it's going to be very alien heavy in the Thursday deep dive, the Barflee edition, which is just another way of saying we're just going to hang out and talk about some crazy stuff. But the more I got it prepared for the December 11th show, I realized it's going to be like half alien stuff. And so be sure if you're in it should be and

I saw you doing that.

Keith Malinak (04:20.289)
Good be.

And I, uh, here, I'm going to, I'm going to wet everybody's appetite. That's spelled differently though, right? Isn't it like W H E T.

Yeah, but you know, it means the same thing, doesn't it?

Okay, so the yeah, no, no, gosh. so I'm gonna show you this. There's a there was an alien. There was a UFO sighting in Pennsylvania, I think it was, I don't know, 70 years ago, and it's called the kecksburg UFO. And, and so there it is. And all I could think of is Brad has nuts. He's gonna describe that a certain

type.

Keith Malinak (04:58.35)
Yep. It's a giant. Well, then it's known as the acorn, the giant acorn. And it does actually look like a big pile of poop right there. it does look like a pile of poop. And what is okay. Hang on a second. The see the alien symbol there that is that one right there. Does that not look like somebody about ready to sit down on the dumper?

yeah, okay. Yeah, well.

isn't that kind of weird? just, I mean, don't overanalyze it, but it looks like they're getting ready to pull their pants down and sit on.

the

that's a nipple too.

Keith Malinak (05:38.509)
butt plug.

Well, anything really when you stop and think about it can be a butt plug.

Yeah, okay. Grimace, by the way, not a butt plug.

But daddy Grimace

You think that's a conspiracy theory? that was really- That was in the 70s or something!

Keith Malinak (05:52.873)
Guarantee you there's some ad agen-

I think it was earlier than that, wasn't it? And I'm telling you, they, you watched mad men. I guarantee you somewhere along the line, somebody sat down and will watch this. We're going to, here's what we're going to pitch and they're going to, we'll just, we'll tell them it's a big fuzzy fun thing. And it, cause nothing is shaped like that except that. And that's what grimace is.

1971, Grimace made his debut.

Oh, okay. And speaking of Mad Men, did you see the clip? They released Mad Men, the 4K edition of Mad Men. see that. And they apparently didn't, and I don't know why they didn't, but what they, they didn't go back and edit some of the scenes for 4K. And when Roger is throwing up, they cut to a scene. You can see the dude, the stagehand with the vomit machine, turning it on and turning it back on.

mean, no.

Brad Staggs (06:49.163)
Okay, I like this I Like that. I'm sorry. I was checking on YouTube. I was listening to you but making sure because remember we've had big issues I don't know if I don't know we'll keep doing YouTube or what but

Which is kinda weird.

Keith Malinak (07:02.634)
Well, I'm surprised that I mean YouTube is so finicky, but they're like the gorilla

It is. OK, want to show you something. Wes has been working feverishly at my very generic direction, and he has come up with a new like a brand spanking new logo for the show at the mic that encompasses both the Thursday deep dive colors, which you can see kind of back here. See that? And then also the Friday whatever the hell this is.

that

That's nice. Awesome. Is that the headlight from an Edsel?

No, it's some old school microphone, bro.

Keith Malinak (07:47.746)
It looks like an Edsel headlight. How do you know they didn't design microphones modeled after the Edsel?

Maybe it is.

Brad Staggs (07:56.002)
You know, as I look at this, as great of a job that Wes did, I'm just thinking in real time here, it really should say at the mic. No one's gonna, people are gonna look at that and think, where's mic? Yeah, so maybe we should, well, we'll workshop that anyway. Wes, I hope you're listening. So it's a great job, but we're gonna need you to change it. I have no idea.

Where do I put my card in? Where do I slide my mic in?

Keith Malinak (08:21.708)
Didn't Edsel have a middle headline?

I don't know. I'm not a car guy. I just want him to go. Hey, here's my if you want to donate to the cause there, you could always subscribe for $2 a month there at the top of my ex page. You could scan that Vinmo. But here's Brad's. Brad's has got his pretty face right in the middle. Thankfully, not as but that I was privy to earlier.

Right there. I put mine up on my My butt's on my thing. My thing's on my butt. I wonder if you get a tattoo with that on it. Well, no, well, if you get a on your butt with a QR code.

What,

Brad Staggs (08:54.957)
Wait with a butt?

Brad Staggs (08:59.924)
Hold on. Hold on. Let's think this through. Where would that be practical,

on butt. well, when you're paying, I mean, anyway, you drive through at McDonald's, you just hang on a second here, scan my and then you.

But why would it have to be on your butt though?

because it's so boring if it's on your arm. Why can't you think, this is why we're just stuck here at middle management is because we don't think outside the box and put stuff on our butt.

So.

Brad Staggs (09:27.138)
Hold on a second. I just want to warn Wes that Paramount or CBS or MTV or whoever, they're going to have an issue and then we'll have to edit this out later. But he's like, dang it, bro, what are you doing? It's totally worth it here because that's all I can think of now is this Beavis and Butthead scene that we've done. I'll get a tattoo of a butt. I'll get a tattoo.

of a butt on my butt.

yeah? Well I'll get a tattoo of a butt that has a butt shaped tattoo on it and I'll get it right on my butt. That would be cool. That would be cool! There's no denying that, right?

You do have a bit of a butt obsession, actually I don't know.

Time out time out time out the guy who sees butt plugs everywhere

Keith Malinak (10:20.014)
I'm not the only person to see the

I just wanted to make sure we were clear there. Continue.

Wait, no, I would just I was going through the messages on the at the micro core message machine. What do call that thing? The voice? What is that thing over there by the phone? So it's the voicemail thing. What do we call answering machine?

I it's right there in front of my face and I this one came in. I didn't know if you heard it or not

Brad Staggs (10:59.448)
Wubba.

Brad Staggs (11:07.836)
my god.

Keith Malinak (11:15.586)
What did you do with the stick?

Wait, so that was an elf that saw that?

Keith Malinak (11:34.808)
knows what you do with You just say bad didn't involve a goat or a sheep.

No, it was a stick, remember? Hey, here is, this is, I love this. Let me find, got so many tabs open. Here we go, here we go. Look at this. Okay, so Douglas sent me this earlier today. Be kind to animals. I just love this. Listen to this. Breaking news, I'm live on the scene now here at the Texas Hill Country and this dog really wants to play ball, but his owner is in the store. He's trying to entice passersby. Look at this guy. He's got the tennis ball in his mouth. Right, look at that.

that f***ing was a stick.

Keith Malinak (11:49.804)
always go to butt jokes this spring

Brad Staggs (12:11.948)
right? He's just looking like, somebody love on me here? Looks like he's lost hope. mean, he does look. Look at this. Look at this. Yeah, I think so. Look at this. Look at this. In a stunning turn of events, his strategy worked. He dropped the ball in the parking lot and the human had to pick it up. You won't get this kind of news from the mainstream. Watch, they'll cover this up. No, no, but not us. So I mean, he waited till the guy came over and dropped his ball and then the guy threw it. How cool is that? That's a cool dog right there.

Is that a retriever?

Keith Malinak (12:38.028)
That dog would jump out of the truck and go with that guy. No!

No, no, that's why the owner was able to roll the window down because he's such a good boy. Maybe he's he's probably leashed.

He's too good. He's too. Well, if you leashed him, then he jumps out and he hangs himself. you don't want to do that either. That's you know what I saw, which is kind of sad on the way back to the motel. No, I saw a poor and this just goes to show you maybe this just goes to show you what Dick's vultures are because there was a squirrel who had been hit, but he wasn't not quite dead yet, sir. And there was a vulture standing right next to him.

You're making me sad

Keith Malinak (13:16.334)
And the squirrel's like, this and the vultures like die, just die. he doesn't remind nature is nature's a bitch.

So hang on a second. So the vulture had enough respect for the squirrel to not eat him alive.

He did pack at him once. I really, I was told that Diddy is there a line for vultures?

He the line! He crossed the line! There might be, it feels like it!

I don't know, nature is you just have to be reminded sometimes nature does not give an F and that's

Brad Staggs (14:02.378)
I mean, we thought she was gonna be here and then the baby got sick and

you just go find some norks. Same thing, right? Just put some norks up there. They're all, mean, why don't you see one? You want to see all of them.

If you got the viking helmet with him. No, no, Grok, don't, don't, Grok, don't design this for us please.

Hold on a second. Let's see. Let's see what we can find over on her on her IG. There's gotta be a there's gotta be look at that. Hey, check that one out.

What's one? What are we doing here? Okay. Look at that. Okay. I guess, okay.

Keith Malinak (14:41.152)
of the norks right? Those are the knocked up norks right there but you what? Well they are.

Is that a-

Brad Staggs (14:56.332)
Can't look at what you're talking about while I'm looking for these But then I have to minimize

to put them back up. Let's see. Okay, sorry. I thought I thought I was taking the heat off you when looking at this but you're but no, it's they need to design a better interface so you can be doing other stuff.

Right, right. Okay, so this lady showed up, I don't know if it was Black Friday or...

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's not be racist.

What's happening?

Brad Staggs (15:25.198)
Oh, sorry. So on African American Friday, this happened at a Sam's Club in Los Angeles. And this woman is getting crap from all sorts of people. Mad at her because she's got she literally took, I don't know, two dozen of these rochisserie chickens, you know, they sell and people are pissed. Look at them. They're like yelling at her and whatnot. I don't know who that man is.

That is kind of a party foul.

Hold on, right? So I'm sorry

that woman right there. Sure, she's... Yeah.

Pissed she yell at it. Well, apparently this woman who got all of these chickens then went outside and was just giving them away. Well, not here and not not at the Sam's but went and gave them away to homeless people.

Keith Malinak (16:11.832)
don't care. That's still a party foul. It is. mean, that's

Okay, interesting. So hold on, that's interesting. So greater good doesn't matter here. Is that what you're saying? That's okay. So I've got three questions. number one is, is there a limit where she could have done this and it would have been okay with you? Like, should she have left a certain amount? And if so, how many should she?

In that case,

Keith Malinak (16:37.944)
think that would have been not. mean, if you think about if you're the person behind her stand back there waiting for the chickens and if you're going to take that many. Well, I'm surprised actually Sam's club doesn't have a limit on how many because what are they five bucks?

I Costco is really cheap. I Sam's probably forced to.

Five bucks. Yeah. Costco. They're five bucks. Yeah. And it's, know, and well, I know Costco bought a chicken farm so that they grow their own chickens. Right. Right. And they're all the same size. But, I think there's a limit.

Are there, is there a chicken mold then at the plant?

I there are, think they just pour the chicken into the mold because they're exactly the same size. It's a little frightening if you stop and think about that. How do you make all the chickens the same size? Of the chicken farm?

Brad Staggs (17:15.79)
Tour

Brad Staggs (17:21.912)
Do they do tours? I gotta see the chicken mold. Now I'm kind of.

I actually am too.

Hold on, I'm sorry, I'm gonna go back here to the vulture double tap. That's what that thing was doing to that squirrel.

It was I felt bad because half of me wanted to stop and put the squirrel out of its misery.

ever had to put an animal out of its misery?

Keith Malinak (17:43.534)
we were driving through Colorado, there was a deer that had been hit and he was on the side of the road and he wasn't dead. Obviously he was going to be dead and I had my thirty-eight with me and I thought I should but no good deed goes unpunished and I'm like, you know, I don't want to spend the night in a in a Colorado jail. So because I guarantee you that if you did that somebody, some Karen would come out and say you were

yeah, I've heard of

Keith Malinak (18:13.26)
He had a chance and you just... So...

Can I just, I'm sorry, I've got some serious ADD, because we have to get back to the animals out of their misery. I've got more questions about the Sam's Club trick, but I see the shadow dangling back here. You see this thing? I'm sorry, I didn't realize that was on there until just now. yeah, well, I just, thought this was gonna be like this ingenious thing, and I was gonna use these like little paperclip binder thingies, know, see that, right? And I was gonna use them here on this.

got it, dangler.

Brad Staggs (18:45.246)
and that way I'd make sure I'd get to everything because I apparently I'm not like a normal human being I can't keep stuff on a desk. It is! It is! Because that's how handy I am. See that? And so I didn't realize the shadow was gonna just be...

What is that? It looks like a tape measure.

Keith Malinak (19:01.735)
So wait, how does that tell you to get to everything?

Doesn't I mean it was in theory Brad it was gonna be kind of in order here, right? But I didn't use it today after I hung it up and then I realized it's a shadow So it's gonna be stupid anyway, right? So look at it. Look at this I'm too honest with my audience. Look at this. See how would this have done? How would this have done?

So.

Keith Malinak (19:24.078)
you would hang papers on

that

I don't have my-

Keith Malinak (19:47.22)
I don't know. can't see what's just off to the side here.

I saw your ass earlier. glorious. I mean, I haven't had a friend moon me since college, bro.

And it was glorious. It was glorious.

Keith Malinak (20:03.214)
That's that's how much I care.

how long it's been. I, what did I want to say here? yeah. The chicken chick, right? I had, I said I had three questions. No, the chicken chick.

The chicken shit?

Chicken Chick. Chicken. the Chicken Chick. Yes, her.

How many should she have left so she wasn't the bad guy?

Keith Malinak (20:21.588)
Well, depends. Like if you go in and there are there's nobody in the store. It's a a it's a slow day and you know you do you look back and you can you can see at least at Costco. You can see how many chickens are still in the in the rotisserie thing you do and you go. Alright, you know what I'm 20, you know, but there's a bunch more that are just ready to come out and you know, there's not that many people in here, but it looked like there were some people in that there Sam's and again.

It's a nice thing that she I guess I mean, how do we know that that's who put the the video of her doing

Keith Malinak (21:02.072)
I even care. wonder if it's. Real.

She did it after she... okay, all right. For the clicks, okay. So, there may or may not be someone that you're somewhat familiar with who buys a lot of cans of chicken at a time. Cans? Cans, like little cans of chicken and also little cups of Insta-rice things, know? And buys a lot at a time.

Because you can't trust anything in the...

Brad Staggs (21:32.706)
like to the point where their Walmart may or may not have a problem with that. Now, has anyone verbalized this? Again, this is someone that I'm sure you're mildly familiar with. No one has verbalized this to the individual in question to my knowledge. But what happened was they took away the cardboard boxes. Okay, so I buy little cans of chicken for the dog.

Right because they have sensitive Tommy's and whatnot right and first of all the old man dog He's earned it and the little girl dog. She just needs it because she's constantly got stomach issues if she doesn't have that seriously strict of a diet now I may or may not spend 750 a day to feed the dogs, but when you buy When you buy the cans of chicken Let's say you buy 24 of them, right

Brad Staggs (22:27.31)
24 of them. That's only six days. It's like it because because they get two meals a day They each get a can and I only get you through six days So, I don't know you do the math. So so what happened was they got so sick and tired of me taking the boxes over the chicken I Mean I said his name is my I was Oh anyway, um, so then they took that away thinking oh this will this will slow his ass down

I thought this is somebody just a theoretical

Brad Staggs (22:54.794)
And really what I do is I just go to the manwich boxes that are sitting right next to it and just take that box and fill it up. But the point is I take 24 at a time. Am I a bad guy? There's still three dozen on the shelf. That's what I'm asking. So it's not that I'm taking a lot or this chick's taking a lot. It's what's left.

If there's still a bunch left, that's-

Keith Malinak (23:17.952)
Right. Yeah. If she's took, but look to me like that probably was all on the, that was on the shelf.

Okay, so then my question goes to the early days of COVID. Do you remember the two guys in Tennessee who bought all of that hand sanitizer? They bought it. Yes. They bought it with their money. Yeah. And then the government comes in and takes it. We're okay with the government coming? Like, no. No. it just honor system? Be good to your fellow man? Or should the government step in and the government should never?

No, the government should never

Should the store then I said maybe Dollar General or whatever the hell they were doing it I think that's where it was. They you're saying they should have stopped.

that they what's this is I see that's the problem with the rona is that Nothing was normal that was in They were brothers in tennessee. Was it tennessee tennessee by brothers chattanooga? Huh, they bought

Brad Staggs (24:13.207)
I think so.

When do I win?

That was the first sign of trouble. That was the very first sign of trouble with all this. And the second sign of trouble was that Governor Wolf in Pennsylvania, when he uttered the phrase, new normal, F you bro. Those were the two early tremors in this whole mess of COVID.

They tried to sell some of those for 70 bucks a bottle.

have to buy them they could get stuff I've got a garage full of light bulbs I've given quite a many of those away that that I bought fair and square I didn't buy them all at the same time I bought them over time knowing they were gonna get phased out not realizing that a man named Donald Trump was gonna come in and keep them legal

Keith Malinak (24:55.968)
the Incandescence.

Yes, the old-school bulbs right and then I ended up giving most of those away I mean anybody need light bulbs. I got them out there. I mean whatever but that was my choice You know, I didn't buy them all at the same time

You can buy yes, you can buy as much of anything as you want that you can afford But the in the woman's case what she was doing I if if that's all true was a nice thing for her to do But if there are other people in the store that were gonna buy chickens Which it looked like the black chick was not happy about it. And by the way, never piss off a black woman They will kill you and hide your body And you'll you won't live to regret it. Just don't do it but

They were pissed and I understand that because you know, be nice and all that but you she was being rude to one group of people to try to be nice to another group.

the

Keith Malinak (25:54.062)
basically. Yeah, she does. Yeah, she she wasted a whole bunch of social capital right there and she thought she was doing it. She didn't like she spoke English either. Did she? Didn't she look well, she's probably illegal. She couldn't speak English. I bought it on food stamps. had snap benefits. Just saying. just tell me I'm wrong.

the

I know.

Keith Malinak (26:28.11)
that is this is the weirdest thing and thank you for bringing that up Because I went down to the ups store, which is fabulous

I'm sorry. I just I just ripped my my filing system right out the wall. That sucks

Are you gonna have to bring people in to repair that? Don't hang yourself.

Yes.

Man his name is Felix and let me just tell you if Felix has got it going on It's got those long thing anyway So we went down to the UPS store because the UPS store sends a notification when you get a package You know what I'm saying?

Well, there's nothing in there

Yeah, here's a package Oh and the packages it looks like you didn't sign for the ones that you picked up last week I said I didn't pick up any packages last Oh Well, it turns out that somebody went in and asked for our box, which is 524 and

I mean, you're supposed to sign for it, which I kind of wonder why. Well, and even told me he says the guy who gave them to him was like, it's weird because it's usually uh mister stags who comes in here and gets the packages and I wonder why somebody else was getting them and I was like, yeah. So, yes, sir. Time

Brad Staggs (29:39.554)
Lazyass! Hand it over yourself!

Brad Staggs (29:55.81)
Jeff Fisher. Right, Jeff Fisher.

good point. Thank you. Well, at the bottom line, if you sent if you sent something to us at the Daily Mojo in the past week or so, we because that's the worst part is we don't even know what it was in a package.

I'm a suspect.

Brad Staggs (30:14.326)
And so they think that you're not kind enough to say thank you.

Well, if it was something that somebody sent us, because again, we don't know what the hell it was. I could have been a pipe bomb. That would this would be the one time that it was a box.

Yeah, right. It's a million dollars.

Brad Staggs (30:31.134)
Sucks cuz I know I know it was cuz I sent it And I'm sorry to tell you but I can't go and I don't have another billion laying around. Look at that. So she's a power She's not sorry. They're all night with the baby Babies get the north like like a month and a half yeah, okay, they grow up so fast, Brad

Sorry, she's not sorry.

Keith Malinak (30:48.334)
The baby's 12. The baby's at school today.

Keith Malinak (30:57.102)
kid is norkin'. The kid is norkin' right now.

Hold on a second now. There is a serious issue. I had trouble obviously with the address because this has numbers in it. But I tweeted this out last week. This happened to me.

Thank for saying tweeted by the way, because it's officially it's tweeted because I'm not going with anything but it's Twitter and it's tweets.

What if I said posted, would that upset you?

I wouldn't upset me but I would need therapy.

Brad Staggs (31:24.106)
longer way to the well I'd have to say I posted this on Twitter I could just say

That's just Yeah, I just tweeted. It's just he needs to go back to it.

So I've had a lot of issues with people and change lately. Panda Express, the little change machine thing, it didn't give me the two pennies and she didn't speak English and it was, was. Right, right. And so when I went back and the next, the next lady barely spoke English, she made up for it. And, and she gave me, she gave me the change for the last time because I bitched about it. I'm like, I don't care for that. Now Walmart now isn't giving you.

hang on, that's weird.

Keith Malinak (31:51.803)
that's weird.

Brad Staggs (32:02.252)
the two cents, they're rounding up. Like they err on the side of the customer as opposed to.

They're on the side of her them if they're rounding running up

to me for my change, right? Yeah. So, but now I've got this, I had 68 cents due back to me and change. And I was at this diner and this lady handed me, I say lady, I don't know, she's probably 20 years old. She handed me three nickels and then told me to have a nice day.

What the hell? What is happening? Like, ever feel like you are?

Wait, how much was she supposed to give you?

Brad Staggs (32:44.046)
68 cents she gave me 15 cents said have a nice day That is even close to 68 cents, bro

Yoy

Keith Malinak (32:53.878)
If she does that, let's say 20 times during the day, that's 50 cents times twice, 10.

Oh yeah, it's like that old movie where they had the little ones and what was Business or what was that? I forget what it was. I can't remember

You ever get high, Joel?

Okay, did you go out on on Black Friday or do anything like that?

And you're in dream

Keith Malinak (33:18.094)
What have we talked about being racist?

did you go on african american friday

no, because I hate black people. no, I didn't, black Friday. Friday.

You didn't go out? I must have been the only person that didn't see crowds when I went out and I didn't know it was like Friday when I left the damn house.

What do even do it? I mean, what's so special about Black Friday anymore? Really? mean, are

Brad Staggs (33:44.11)
Guess they got sales man. I don't know Yeah, yeah, I know everyone's on on Amazon. every place did great. But the Walmart I went to over here in Roanoke I I was in there. I don't know what time it was eight nine o'clock six seven No, and they and I asked several workers and they said there were no morning and they said there there've been no crowds

AM

Brad Staggs (34:11.118)
And so I was expecting the doom and gloom of the Trump economy, news stories to break on Monday morning, and it was just the opposite. And so I was like, oh, cool, guess the economy's fixed now. But there we go. I want you to see this. I want you to see this guy. This is awesome.

Ooh, those Black Friday deals. Limited time. Only... Wait a minute. how about this one? What a deal. It's the same as it was before.

Now that's pretty funny.

But it's true, he's right, it's just there's nothing.

But the sign gets that adrenaline going. gotta spend that money,

Keith Malinak (34:50.452)
And you know what, there's probably psychology that shows that people, if it was the same price, we sold 10 % more of those that day just because.

Put your psychology absolutely

Those two dudes, did you see the two dudes that was at Walmart?

Let's make this a thing y'all. African American Friday.

Thank you. The two the two black dudes at Walmart, they got the TV, the 70 inch TV. It was I think that was on Twitter. And they're like, hell yeah, I'm taking and I think they'd like put the wrong sign or something. I guess you didn't see it. I'll see if I can find it was funny in person.

Brad Staggs (35:15.455)
Okay, what what what are you saying?

Brad Staggs (35:33.484)
You know what I what I I love is that video where you talk about porch pirates earlier Where they put the the they get a new TV and they have the old crapped out TV in the box and sit it on the patio and then some bro walks up he's like hey, yeah Haulin away my shit dumbass

Yes!

Yep. this is I found it son of a how how lucky am I to find this on the first go around.

Keith Malinak (36:11.214)
All right. Did you hear the phrase?

Brad Staggs (36:24.506)
So they take the zero off of the side they do the bit they get the clicks they put it back and then they go

Brad Staggs (36:32.814)
don't know. We need to follow up to the register. We need to see what it rings up. And then you can bitch and moan and make sure you took a picture of it, you know. Okay. I don't typically ask for anything for Christmas, but I have found two things this year that I want. Okay. Two things. And this is the... You got it. You got it. All right. So I want, okay. Maybe it's three things. So I'm going to need a minimum of 50 acres.

Just saying.

Keith Malinak (36:51.612)
left gun in the right one

Brad Staggs (37:02.23)
in the middle of absolutely nowhere.

but no one sees you do it with the thing in the middle.

with that stick, me and that stick have bonded, And then, I need a house covered in this, this siding right here, so you can't even see my house. They have camouflage siding now for houses.

Brad! You need some of that for the double wide.

This is a hunter's dream though. Like you could hunt from the double wide mouth.

Keith Malinak (37:33.378)
Did you, it's weird that you would bring up camo and actually is that, is that sighting or is that roofing? Either way. know what? Here's the thing from the, from the, from the air, you would not be able to see the roof because it would look like it blended in. is perfect for.

Get home

Brad Staggs (37:48.46)
Perfect for like for the attacks authorities that fly over your house. Yeah

you could be growing all the pot right inside and they'd never know it. This is the second time today that I've talked about camouflage. Well, which is really weird.

Okay, well, how about it? Tell me, tell me about your camouflage and then I wanna show you my third thing on my list.

no, you tell me your third thing and I'll tell you. then we get you're right. That's the first rule of radio is make sure you keep things all grouped together. I had never heard of dazzle. That's still that could be a two. The razzle dazzle camouflage was started back in the early 1900s. And I don't know how I'd never heard of it before this day. But they would paint ships and airplanes in this weird

I don't want to mess

Brad Staggs (38:17.942)
OCD folk like myself

Keith Malinak (38:37.665)
Stripey thing

So, okay, so if you, if our Navy rolled up on a swimming giant zebra in the ocean, you wouldn't know which one to aim your missiles at.

Well, no, here's what the deal is, is that back then they used these, the range finders that look like telescopes and the range finders used essentially prisms to try to get the... So you couldn't tell which direction that ship was going. That's a small boat, but you couldn't see which direction it was going. And you couldn't get an idea of how big it was because of all the different lines and the shading. I did. You ever heard of this before?

Not at all!

Either that's really cool razzle dazzle camouflage and it was started back in the world war one and then world war two knew they did They knew Somebody knew But it does it doesn't I mean when you look at it like this like in the harbor. It's like that doesn't look very camouflage to me It looks like a target But it's not

Brad Staggs (39:26.174)
Who? no.

Yeah, that's fair. Yeah, somebody.

Brad Staggs (39:43.704)
Sorry, I got a lot of monitors and it's just kind of getting north.

Norks. Norks will do that to you. That's why I'm here to remind you of the absence of Norks. Speaking of, where is she?

I don't know what she's talking about camouflaging her norks when she goes to Dallas that way Brad won't see the side. I don't know. There's a lot.

She's got, wait a minute, she can sit there and type, but she can't be on the... I'm calling Bravo Sierra.

well, no, because you said earlier she got the baby probably latched right now and she's in bed just typing with her thumbs with a Okay. All right. So, so here's the third thing I want for Christmas. You ready? And it's a, it's one of these little underground. Where is it? Where is it? Where is it? Underground he says it's underground and it's hiding. There it is. Okay. In Europe.

Keith Malinak (40:17.39)
pictures are it didn't happen.

Keith Malinak (40:32.119)
underground.

Brad Staggs (40:35.682)
People are digging up their backyards for this new genius trend. It's called ground storage unit

That looks like a sheenist.

A plastic capsule you install under- I'm noodling out in my head what a sheenist might be. Don't Google it kids, because I have a bad feeling. Just a few hours. No electricity needed, thanks to Earth's natural temperature, it keeps foods fresh all year round. Okay, hold on, I'm sorry. This is cool, but I can't deal with the handheld mic that looks like a little nub.

Does it not?

Keith Malinak (40:52.898)
You know what it

Keith Malinak (41:08.303)
They all do that. Now that's the big thing.

Really pissing me off. Hey, look at that. can keep ketchup down there

You can keep everything down there. Cause in theory it's

That wine! Hold on, I'm sorry. Foods fresh all year round. And here's the crazy part. Some people are even turning them into mini bunkers or survival pods. It's simple, smart and spreading fast. Wait, simple, smart and spreading fast? doesn't sound like a... Anyway, so can I just say this? Okay.

with her.

Brad Staggs (41:41.774)
Did I say 50 acres? 500 acres with a camouflage house. And then if they see that and you know they're coming, then you jump down in this thing. I mean, this is Brad. This is cool. I want to watch football down there. Well, I don't want to watch my football teams, but I want to watch some football teams at the end of this right here. Like this is a man cave.

It's a sheenus. You're gonna jump into a sheenus.

There's not a chance in hell I Google that,

It's right there, there's a Sheenus.

Okay, hang on. I don't know what is... Okay, not what I was thinking, but better than I was

Keith Malinak (42:16.366)
It's a sheenist. Every woman knows what I'm talking about. So you can stand up and actually, that's more like the thing you use in the car if you have to pee if you're a guy.

Okay, hold on a second. You can really make good time if you don't have to stop.

You can really-

Keith Malinak (42:33.048)
Yes. Like, remember the astronaut chick?

Yes, but that's a di- I'm not wearing a diaper. Now I would- I would use like a- that's a good idea though. Like almost like an oil funnel thing, right? But you have to- you're gonna have to raise up while you're driving.

Are ya? What if you put a vacuum on

Okay, this guy out this guy's a poor planner, I'm sorry now I want to know if you feel if you feel bad for this guy He won five thousand dollars a week forever. We've talked about this at the publishers clearinghouse But remember they went bankrupt and so the check stopped coming. He's he's had these checks. They've been Araya. Oh my gosh, he gets two hundred and sixty thousand dollars a year every January They send him a check and that started back in 2012 So do the math

260 times 13 or whatever.

Keith Malinak (43:22.451)
Four would be a million. So 13 is three fours. So it'd be three million, right? Sure.

What a dumbass. He's got to sell his house. He's like, this is a nightmare.

that's the dude that yeah he yeah he he and that's why you never take the check the yearly you take it

Sorry, I know this sucks and done you're wrong, but but

Brad Staggs (43:44.302)
I don't know if he had an option in this one.

I did publish a clearinghouse, the one that Ed McMayen.

Yes! Let's go! Hit me with some! I've got, I have got the ultimate Mandela effect for the Thursday deep dive, the Barfleet on Thursday. That's gonna make your head spin. I think.

as much as moon raker. She had Dolly had braces.

No, no, no. No, OK, well, probably. But what I'm saying is this guy's story is creepy. And then I'll save it for Thursday.

Keith Malinak (44:21.262)
Okay, that's not fair. Not only that, but no one will remember by Thursday that you said

stack that's on the other side of the room that even if I got up right now to please you, I would grab this incoherent stack of stuff and still not find it in there, but I'll find it by Thursday, okay?

Mm-hmm. That's what they yeah Okay, I did not know this but dolly not only did dolly have braces in moonraker, but the brady bunch even Did a parody of it with marcia getting braces. How the hell does that happen? You know, dolly is in moon raker So how in the hell she had

I don't get that man

Thank you. Um, well here I saw a video on YouTube. So it has to be true of a, what was the name of the channel? He was, um, it was about, uh, time travel and what happens if you do go back in time in theory, you, you don't change the current timeline. You change the parallel universe timeline, which is, you know, that, that would make sense because

Keith Malinak (45:33.61)
You would also if you ended up going into that parallel universe timeline There's going to be two u's and there's not going to be one of you in the original timeline you came from so imagine how lonely that would be

Yeah, I can't stand one of me. I don't need two of me. Come on. Sorry.

So we have a couple of things in common. Hold on a second. me hit. Sorry. Thank you.

So I was reading this article earlier this week Odell Beckham jr. You familiar with him

I loved his last album was incredible.

Brad Staggs (46:02.776)
No, no, no. He's the guy who made that awesome catch. I think it was one of your football or something in football

yeah. But wait a minute. No, had a home run, didn't he?

So he said the 12 million a year, that ain't what it sounds like. He's like, after you pay taxes, I don't know, this is a loose quote, pay taxes and your living expenses and then you need money to flaunt with. mean, that's not, you gotta have flaunting money. And he said, you can't make it on 12 million a year. mean, you wanna be, hey.

I'm sorry, money to what?

Brad Staggs (46:37.902)
So what would you have done with that $5,000? Would you have invested in something? What would you have done?

with this guy. Wait, what?

What would I have done with it?

Keith Malinak (46:53.88)
drugs?

That's it. I don't f***ing mean it.

That's why I it. Why not? mean, there's got can we talk about drugs for a Because I I had a statistic this morning that I did not bring up and I meant to bring it up and I feel bad. Oh, before I forget, can we uh have prayer request? Rita Conway. Oh, uh a listener who had a procedure done and she had to have a uh I think she had to go back and have the procedure redone anyway. But if uh you are so inclined to be the praying type

Of course!

Keith Malinak (47:27.764)
reading. You could use your prayers. So positive and even positive vibes if you're not the praying sort positive vibes.

It's gonna be the most awkward transition ever, but so maybe you have something else before I

No, no, I was gonna, my, my, my, the, the thing that I did not get to bring up this morning that I should have brought up this morning, because it's important in, this world in which we live now, the fact that how many people die each year due to drugs?

gosh, now this could be in America or worldwide or what?

I think let's go. I guess it's worldwide. I'm going to go with worldwide. No, it's not that many. It's like a hundred and damn it. Where the hell did the hundred and eight thousand. You know how many people die of alcohol each year? I'll overdoses, alcoholism,

Brad Staggs (48:14.414)
100 million.

Brad Staggs (48:19.864)
Seven people.

108,000.

Brad Staggs (48:33.026)
You probably sent this one out. How many?

178,000. So if we have such a, oh, uh, right. If we have such a problem yet, thank you. If we have such a problem, uh, with the drugs that are killing people, it's crazy. We have 108,000 people every year.

Don't you dare start pushing for- Son of a bitch.

I should, mean, you're going to do something. There is something a foot here.

Can you mark? Mark the time. Yeah. Oh, Mark the time. Where are we? It's 2 48 PM central. I am playing the rest of this program under protests under protest for because the youngest I can tell I can tell that the youngest is about to leave the house because I can smell like making my nose it just perfume or whatever the hell got sprayed and and it's killing me right now.

Keith Malinak (49:13.954)
Over.

Brad Staggs (49:30.466)
Like, it's, I'm gonna die on the air today. So I just want you to know, the rest of the show sucks because I know the first 48 minutes was probably Hall of Fame worthy. Am I right, Brad?

All of the broadcasts that you've been a part of in your illustrious, very, very, very long career, very long. mean,

I think they're erasing some of Limbaugh's tapes right now to put ours into place.

at

So I just want to point out, mark this, first 48 minutes, broadcast gold. The remainder of the show, it's gonna suck, because I can't even breathe. Okay, so I just want to point out that this is a mug that I don't often sport here, but like I said, it's gonna be an awkward transition from prayer requests to my to-do list. Yeah, drugs in the middle. My to-do list is number one, we're gonna fuck this shit. There we go, that's one, two, three. You gotta get the stuff done.

Keith Malinak (50:05.154)
EASILY

Keith Malinak (50:17.962)
No, we had drugs in the middle.

Brad Staggs (50:27.15)
But I got, uh, it was good. So I appreciate that gift from a long ago, but it just, sits up here in the background and it never, you never talk about it. But I thought, you know what, today I'm going to talk about it because I got today on my day job over at the place pack, green on leash. got a Gary in Minnesota who was awesome. And he sent me this Connell's mug. The album is ring. So if you want the Connell's album.

If you want the Connell's album, go and listen to Ring. Not now, it's when the show is over and it's right here. So that is the Connell's Ring. And so that was my number two most listened to band on Spotify Rapper this year, right after Travis, which you should check out. Again, not now, but later. What do you got there? You got some Kekse Cookies speaking of.

said, Pat. Yeah, you said, and I said, Kexie because somebody. Yep. It was a Gator fan, and I mean, let's just I feel like I should eat some.

Somebody sent you a gift of cookies?

Brad Staggs (51:25.687)
she's

Brad Staggs (51:32.242)
I ate some of that eggnog before I went on here. Dig around in there. Maybe you'll find the eggnog.

Brad Staggs (51:40.153)
I know what you're gonna say. I know what you're gonna say. I bitch about it all the time

Why don't they?

Put the freaking cookie names on the packaging. That's what you're gonna say?

Yes. Okay. That's it. mean, why not?

The box today that Pat was showing off, that had names on all the cookies now. You don't know which ones you like! They're in the future!

Keith Malinak (52:00.59)
I'm

Right. wait a second. Wait a second. This one. Hold on. Am I am I saying something cinnamon roll that is that does have the name on it? That does have it, but you can't see it. It has a name. It's like disguised. I don't care. I'm still going to yell about it because I want the names on the but they are on the package. I don't care. Put the names on the package. And so what the name. So what if the name is on the salted caramel too? And so what if the name

Well, okay, well.

Keith Malinak (52:32.564)
is on the eggnog. And so what if the name is on the polar bear peanuts? Did you say eggnog's really good?

Yeah, try it man, it's good.

But I gotta heat it first.

I don't know what and why can't you include a microwave at these prices? Can you not include a freaking microwave with the cookies? mean seriously.

Keith Malinak (53:10.484)
yeah. It does. It's actually, that's for our deaf friends at sign language. That's for deaf libertarian back there. She, when she watches, if I like cover my mouth, she can't lip read. She has to read that. And

Well, that's cool. So how do you learn how to read that though?

Ask Deaf Libertarian, she's the one who knows. I don't know, because I'm not deaf, I can hear fine. I'm not defective. I can eat eggnog.

Brad Staggs (53:50.455)
next

Keith Malinak (54:12.522)
I did.

Keith Malinak (54:16.622)
the

the the

I'm gonna have to point it out as Jeffy did that that's two words

Two words. Two words. Yep.

And we're by the way tomorrow morning on Saturday morning live which starts at 9am central but the real good stuff happens earlier than that because it's the pre show and

Brad Staggs (55:07.424)
You show your ass to the camera? Is that only what I get for the pre-show?

You get the you get the pre show ass but sometimes it's you know, it's the twigs and the berries from down the street. We we scoop them all up and show them in the back but that's tomorrow morning Saturday morning live Saturday morning live me and Jeff Fisher.

the

Yes, you can. can find it.

Keith Malinak (55:37.358)
Yeah, it does. That's how I find yours. I look for the little pink hole ring thing and and and there you are right there in the center of it. It's kind of weird. Is it pink? Are they all pink?

I don't know, it's like a reddish pink or whatever. don't know, man. So everybody should go live when we're...

There's six seven mean anyway crawfish wants to know

Nobody knows. It's just stupid. knows.

I'm kinda apathetic about 6-7. Okay. It's a nightmare Friday Wisconsin Jack hole. No one's paying attention to these people who are saying important things over no!

Brad Staggs (56:09.774)
I'm looking Wisconsin Jackal is in a bad mood today. You know like he's over there saying like I'm I'm dramatic or something which is accurate I mean, that's a fact, but he's just pissed that that Rebecca's not here and so our Right, I mean we have nothing to do. You know blame the kid, bro blame the kid

I'm pissed that Rebecca's not

Keith Malinak (56:28.214)
withholding of the norks is not acceptable. I mean, not that we would ever objectify a woman.

blame the kid

Brad Staggs (56:35.458)
Look at this, we're getting YouTube comments today. How weird is that?

Did not enjoy what that's so weird that we are

the dab. We're getting YouTube comments, getting X comments.

I just noticed the poster looking display of ATM behind Brad. Cool.

yeah, yeah, look at that. Maybe we should go through these. that's a good idea. Because then you could smell your pits, Wisconsin Jackal, and people aren't going to know. No, I'm doing the dab. I'm not.

Keith Malinak (57:03.158)
And I don't know why did it upset why did it piss me off so

Because it was Cam Newton for the Carolina Panthers would score a dad gum touchdown and do that. It's annoying. Deb! Wow! Deb, thank you!

You know

Keith Malinak (57:22.254)

Can I just say that?

I love your audience. Your audience is awesome. Can I just say, be sure to scan this for Brad. So that, cause I'm not going to share anything that you, Holy crap. I've got to always do the YouTube. If that's where you can send money.

Wait a second. Hold on. That was a thing on TikTok where people you could give them the money and they would do the end player thing. The the where you just you eat and then and go and you have to say num num num and huh.

I should start doing that.

Brad Staggs (58:23.934)

I would witness is the latest tight talk trend where someone will start a live stream stare to the camera blindly as if they're sharing it to the abyss and won't say anything until they receive some type of donation like like a robot or an NPC and For some reason this trend has really become popular and to be fair. The original clip is not just We're doing it right now. We're doing it right now. Just stare and then until we what are we doing again?

We should do that.

Keith Malinak (01:00:09.07)
Until somebody gives more money, we just don't say anything.

What do we do though? You know what saying? Like, do they have to type, you know, the demand?

I know what I'm gonna do. They could... Yes.

what what are you supposed to do like if you if you send money are we just say hey yeah yeah yeah whatever the hell that what she say what

She said,

Brad Staggs (01:00:30.904)
but actually the creator of this trend where for some reason this

Gang, special Gang gang, ra ra ra Gang gang, gang gang, balloon

I don't know what language, mean, can't, it's a dumbest damn thing. I'll do it.

Do know how simple money? mean,

Keith Malinak (01:04:31.126)
Me. You beat me because mine was only 14.

Wait a minute. Hold on. We got to give me a second here. This is out of control. This is out of control here. First of all, Yahoo search sucks, but look at this. Look at this right here. I've never seen this. Moonchildrenfilms.com, Keith Malinak Network, A Closer Look, and it says I'm worth 10 million. What? Hold on. Keith Malinak. Wait, hold on. CEO of Malinak Group. What are we doing?

What did you do with the other money?

Keith Malinak (01:05:01.704)
Where'd you blow all the money?

No, I'm trying to figure out Keith Malin's life and career, explore his business ventures, learn more about his philanthropic work. Who wrote? What is happening here? Who is Keith Malinak born in Chicago in 1960? Who is this? There's a rich, there is an actual wealthy Keith Malinak. Look, in the early 1990s, he began to produce his own music, debut album in 1993, Malinak. Who made this? Love is a drug. I want to be with you. Who, all right, who is doing this shit?

You make two million money.

worth a hundred million who did what is this this is

I can't even find my money anymore. They won't list my net worth online anymore and I'm starting to think you took my money.

Brad Staggs (01:05:43.63)
What is happening?

Brad Staggs (01:05:52.102)
Hold on, Malonek's most notable accomplishments. Keith Malonek has produced albums for a number of major artists, including Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, and Lady Gaga. He has also written songs for the biggest hits of the past decade, including Shake It Off by Taylor Swift and Roar by Katy Perry. What is happening?

Why weren't you telling any of us about this extracurricular activity? mean all of this while you were doing Pat Gray?

Yeah, I wake up at 3 a.m. because again for the love of the game. That's why.

and

the

Keith Malinak (01:06:47.279)
I was wondering where you were getting that. I wasn't gonna say anything.

There we go. Well, next time say are you something? Because we're not seeing it on the screen. Look at this stuff. 10 million. And then it says, there are the songs that I wrote for Katy Perry and Taylor Swift. It says Ryan Scott, my adventure started as a heartfelt tribute to the captivating world of moon children films.

What's the website?

Keith Malinak (01:07:07.918)
Who's Ryan Scott? Wait a second. I thought it was the Malinak Media Group.

I don't know. I... So weird. Anyway.

Deb says, hey, B and K, I think that's us. There's a new limited series called The Beast in Me.

It's really good. Claire James is in it.

Hold on, you said the beast and me or the beast and me?

Keith Malinak (01:07:30.158)
the

That was the book that Tobias wrote.

Yes, yes, yes he did. Tobias... Funk me. Funk me.

Get the man!

Okay, let's see. okay. So apparently today was a really big day in the world of soccer. You know that?

Keith Malinak (01:07:58.997)
It's huge.

Keith Malinak (01:08:03.958)
I said I look good in green. They drew what? there's there's Kira cow.

You that? Where's Kira Ken?

right there first fifth down for six down first column

Yeah, right there. it is. There we go. Andrew Jones. So you got the USAs over here. They said that they got a great draw against Paraguay, Australia, and the winner of this playoff. And they said that's a great place for USA to be. So I want you to know that we expect great things from Team USA, or whatever the hell it's called. This summer, they start playing. Now, I don't know what city. Do we know what city the USA is? Is that right? OK.

Boston. I think so. It's either Boston or Bakersfield. It began with a B. Boise. It could be Boise.

Brad Staggs (01:08:51.179)
Okay, somebody will know in the-

Brad Staggs (01:08:57.016)
could be Bentonville, Arkansas.

It could be Bentonville, but I think it's Boise. I'm pretty sure it's Boise. And you're right, Croft is Rebecca does need to just she's she's going to fall asleep.

Okay.

Brad Staggs (01:09:10.658)
Did she go to bed? She go to sleep? She's time is it somebody somebody do my job for me.

in

She should be well. There's a demand for Norks and. We'd like to fill that demand. It is screaming streaming on Netflix, although she said streamings. I think Deb's drunk. And the beast is the beast and me, not the beast in me.

the

Brad Staggs (01:09:44.331)
Wait, is it AND or is it? Or no, it's AND you.

Is in you or is it on you?

So, now we gotta gotta know if it's in you or on you. I'm asking for a friend. don't really I don't wanna know for myself. I wanna know for other people. does Keith get his money as a male escort? Lynn Chasing Dreams wants to know.

Yeah, you know it, man. My get rich quick scheme is out.

When you when you are out as a male escort, do you wear the hat? Do you wear the chapeau?

Brad Staggs (01:10:18.798)
That's whatever you want. Like, I mean, it's like I don't have a uniform. You know, I take direction. That's a good look. Wow. Good look. That's a.

remember, we're going to start the bidding for this next week.

Does a rabbit come with that or no? Is it sold separately? The rabbit?

You have to kill your own rabbit.

Wait, hold on Toby says see this is a weird thing. I can see Toby's comment on on that screen, but not on this screen So then I can't put it on this

Keith Malinak (01:10:57.762)
What's he say?

What is Toby saying? By the way, it's Toby's birthday. He's finally going to be legal on Sunday. He will be. Where did he go? Am I did Keith leave and I'm here by myself or huh? it is a Toby's birthday on Sunday and he will finally be legal. He will be 21 years old. and Kara says, do a Facebook search of yourself. Seriously, where the hell did Keith go? I have no idea. We'll just.

We'll just, there he is.

You don't hold on. He's. What are you having? Are you having issues? Asking for a friend. It's all good. Did your mic die, Keith? It's possible while we're waiting on Keith, there's exciting news in the world of the film industry. If you like Netflix because they bought Warner Brothers for 72 billion dollars, they are now.

going to be the strain and HBO Max is going away. Well, that's what they say anyway, because now you won't need it because you'll have Netflix. Although because they are the government, our government has to step in and okie dokie it because otherwise if they say no, Netflix cannot buy Warner Brothers Discovery.

Keith Malinak (01:12:29.486)
Are you? What is? You really hit a break? That's awkward. Can you dry? Can you do sign language? They bid so seventy two billion dollars and the government, if the government doesn't OK it, then that will be a problem.

But the reason the government wouldn't okay it is that it would become, they say, a giant monopoly and would also reduce the creativity coming out of Hollywood. Which, yeah, it's stupid. By coming together with Netflix, this is David Zaslov, the president and chief executive of Warner Brothers. He said, by coming together with Netflix, write your own jokes, we will ensure people everywhere will continue to enjoy

the world's most resonant stories for generations to come. Paramount tried to buy them, but they couldn't afford it. Keith should have bought them. I mean, with all the money he had, but it doesn't say how much Paramount bid. But this means that Netflix, if it's approved, also will own CNN, which is going to be a little awkward. hold on a second. I think I have Keith.

on the phone here. hi, Keith. you doing? I'm doing good. Let me, let's see, if I, if I put you over here and I do this, I think, hang on a second, how about now?

Good. Check, All right. Is the audio synced up?

Keith Malinak (01:14:07.212)
Hell no, but when did that ever stop us? I just won't look at your face

There is a loose plug in the back of this microphone.

Is it a grimace plug?

No, no, no, and when it comes out...

Does it make that popping sound?

Brad Staggs (01:14:23.626)
And then I put it back in.

huh. did you and Netflix and Warner Brothers come together to make this deal?

It doesn't

Brad Staggs (01:14:34.604)
and do its thing. You know, you're you're fully expect to work.

hate it. but no, it doesn't and it doesn't. There is some irony there. I will have to say. Did you know that Netflix bought Warner Brothers?

It doesn't! That's the irony!

Brad Staggs (01:14:49.56)
Yes. Yeah, was riveting.

You don't you're not excited about it. I'm not ever to be.

not because it's for going to be the damn story that brad was reading while i was scrambling to fix my mic you know i'm worth 45 million dollars apparently i don't have a microphone that works and apparently i don't have a battery on my phone that works either now that

You should

Keith Malinak (01:15:13.344)
Is your phone going dead too?

Yes.

Where's Rebecca? You know, at least if we had Rebecca, she could just.

I do have a backup microphone.

But why would you want to have that ready?

Brad Staggs (01:15:26.594)
I don't know where it is, I'm looking around, because I showed you earlier. Organized and clean, and this one right here doesn't even have a... What? Doesn't even have a...

Wasn't it just like a year ago that Netflix was like in trouble financially?

on Fact Two.

I mean, I thought that they were going and here's how long I've been and Netflix has been around. I did the very first media tour that Netflix did to announce the creation that Netflix existed. And I had to go to different cities and, and show the little CDs or the DVDs and say, look, and now you'll be able to, go online and you'll be able to get your favorite movies. And there will be.

No late fees because you can keep these as long and people like you can keep them as long as you want Yep Keep them as long as you want and when you send it back in you will you'll get you know The next one in your queue and that is what killed say it with me now blockbuster

Brad Staggs (01:16:31.758)
I ready. Can I say that I committed an egregious sin two years ago?

with did have anything to do with grimace

net with net no with Netflix I still feel bad

And that was what did you do?

You wanna hear the story? Well, I scramble around.

Keith Malinak (01:16:51.638)
No, no, I just I think you should bring it up and then not tell us then. Yeah.

I thought so too. What a great way to go through this segment. It's just to set up a story and then don't pay it off.

Yeah, yeah, keep a moron in suspense.

the

I'm your

Brad Staggs (01:17:19.478)
You should never quit a job without having one.

My dad always said that and he's dead now.

Yeah. Yeah, so. What happened was we still had Netflix. mean, we still had our. He's in life to make it through.

will always have necessity.

We'll always have Netflix.

Brad Staggs (01:17:42.174)
And at the time Netflix was the DVD in the mail thing. And I will say that Barbershop is one of my favorite movies of all time. And I loved that movie and we rented it. And then I went to send it back and I couldn't find it. I'm like, I don't know how you lose a DVD in a 400 square foot apartment. But we managed to.

So I was scrambling, I was like, I don't have 25 bucks or whatever the hell it was to replace it. So I to, went to eBay and I found the cheapest damn DVD and it was, barely had been doubling as someone's coaster. And it said in there, it's a very bad condition, 75 cents or whatever. And I like sold.

at 43.

Keith Malinak (01:18:38.73)
And you sent them a piece of crap?

And then I got to thinking, somebody rented that later, you a-hole. It only cost me 75 cents, you know, so whatever.

You ruined their day!

Keith Malinak (01:18:51.212)
You ruined you ruined their day, but that reminded me and probably got so you did but

Somebody in trouble, right? Yeah, right. Because they got in trouble for a scratchy seat. Well, I guess I guess they didn't. They didn't they didn't come back to me and say, Hey, bro, what happened here? Yeah. The you're going.

No, no, no. was looking at this was this dude. He went to all the because remember red box. Yeah. Yeah. So after when they shut down, they shut down. They didn't pick up the machines right away. And so this guy would go around to a bunch of wherever he lives and he would see if there's anything left because if you if you were able to get the

That is so sad!

Keith Malinak (01:19:38.476)
The DVD out you got to keep it because they didn't obviously they didn't exist anymore So they weren't running around and so he went everywhere There was a red box machine in his town and he like bought up all the well He didn't have to pay for it because they didn't even take a credit card But he was able to get DVDs out of all the old machines

is.

And DVD.com when they went, but that's part of Netflix. And when they went down, they, you could get on that. You could order anything and they'd send it to you and you got to keep it.

which is pretty cool other than who has a DVD player anymore.

Hmm I do

Keith Malinak (01:20:22.446)
Actually, I do too, but we're different.

to

here. It's okay. Imagine the **** that's in Jeffy's garage. It can't be that weird. By the way, why do you people just tuning in now? Why do you why do you sound like you're on the phone?

because, check, check.

Okay. Deb says my brother worked for the Redbox overseeing those that filled the machines that was back in the inception of Redbox. It seemed like a good idea. What happened? What? Keith Leigh. I don't know.

Brad Staggs (01:21:15.949)
I

Can you check, check, check?

Okay, I just turned you down over here.

don't even have to get up that close. don't think I mean, maybe you do. don't. Do you check? Check. Check. Well, you can get up there. You sound a little funny but that's alright. I mean, no funnier than usual. This is this is this is some top. This is some top tier broadcasting right here.

I'm hanging up.

Brad Staggs (01:21:42.89)
off the I don't want to hear much anymore.

you don't hear yourself you can't hear yourself from here i don't know where you're hearing it but it ain't from me hear me now

weird.

Brad Staggs (01:21:52.27)
Okay, I don't know. Help me. So now I can hear my, I have no idea how. It's something you're saying. I know how it's happening. Hang on. Bear with me.

I don't have anything, there's nothing on it

Keith Malinak (01:22:06.734)
You know, you'd think for somebody with 43 million dollars, you could get your shit together a little bit better than this. But it just goes to show you that just because you have money, doesn't mean you have smarts.

you would think.

Brad Staggs (01:22:19.406)
Here's what's happening. I have two tabs open. I don't know what to I'm afraid to close it.

one is ****ing up my audience. If you have And if you had a Mac, you'd be able to click on this little bitty thing up at the top and it would tell you which tab was making noise. but but you don't. Yeah. Can you hear me? Yeah.

Still there.

I just risked it. I said pick a tab to close. I just closed and I had a 50 cut the red wire and it didn't blow up my face.

You damned the torpedoes.

Keith Malinak (01:22:53.954)
You know, that and that's why you are a pioneer in this business.

That's how I made my 45 million. Sitting in a cluttered room, freezing my ass off, wearing a dead gum seamstress tape measure thing.

around my. And women's underwear. forget that.

I wasn't gonna put that part in there. Why do you do that every time? Hey, maybe check this out. I want to play this because you replied to this email. You said this is not real. All right, here we go. AI girlfriend ready?

You enjoy putting that part in there. Hey!

Speaker 3 (01:23:32.544)
I trust you.

Hold on a second, and you don't think that's real? Okay, So I guess, so this guy's analysis means nothing.

and a little nervous.

We started with magazine

Keith Malinak (01:23:47.967)
Nope.

Keith Malinak (01:23:53.28)
No, I'd like to hear what he analysis is about.

Alright, now we got robots. Just giving men even more reason to not be with real women because why should I be with a real woman who's probably going to break my heart and who doesn't want me anyway when I could be with a robot? Okay, so you're saying... but see, look at that. Look at that. That's totally real, right? Absolutely. Okay, so what's the BS? Then we'll go from there.

Yes, absolutely.

Keith Malinak (01:24:17.208)
that she's not a robot.

So you're saying that's a human.

Yes. Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (01:24:28.326)
And a little nervous. Me too.

Robot eyes don't do that.

They also don't have that many muscles in their face to make that little grin thingy. There are 37 muscles in the human face.

that you used to smile with and

out your face muscles like you know at the gym or what have you like is there like a station for the for the face muscles

Keith Malinak (01:24:54.658)
Yes.

You

It's impossible to have a conversation with you.

What did I do? I didn't do anything. Ask a woman. They know more about smiling and stuff like that.

doesn't risk trouble.

Keith Malinak (01:25:09.963)
it's I didn't I never happen

that's a new- The whole clip might be AI. See that? That's a good thought there.

How much does Keith want Brad to shut up again, says Ben? Maybe.

Where's that? by the way, happy birthday to Toby!

Brad Staggs (01:25:29.772)
busy with a microphone when you said that and then I thought

Why did face muscles make you remind you of Toby?

No, was just, I, he's up on the screen back there. He's not on this screen. Okay. Toby and several others don't appear on this screen in real time. And Why not? I don't know. I can't even get a microphone to work. How the hell am going to know how the internet works, bro?

can't believe these drugs are legal. Woo!

Wait, what are you on? What are you on?

Keith Malinak (01:25:57.294)
Nothing. It's okay. It's I'm you know what? I am high on life.

they kicked in

the the

I am so high.

Keith Malinak (01:26:26.89)
You know, you could afford premium with the money you make.

Brad Staggs (01:26:33.57)
or not. Don't tell me what to spend my money on. Okay, so this is a three minute video. Now I want to point something out here. This video was posted three years ago. Three years ago. I thought it was fascinating. Now, if I'm wrong, tell me in the chat, it's not fascinating. Or Brad will tell me it's not fascinating. For some reason, I couldn't stop watching this three minute clip on how they create.

yourselves.

Brad Staggs (01:27:02.06)
This AI stuff. We've trained physically simulated humanoids to play a simplified version of 2v2 football in North America, also known as soccer. Thank you. To achieve that, we use a combination of imitation learning to play a simplified version of 2v2 football. Trying to make it bigger. In North America, also known as soccer. To achieve that, we use a combination of imitation learning, reinforcement learning, and population-based training. Tell us about it.

Before training, the physically simulated humanoids make random movements and do not produce competent behavior. After training a population of agents for three days wall clock time, or the equivalent of five years of simulated matches, the agents have learned the basics of gameplay, running towards the ball and scoring. After more training, the gameplay is increasingly coordinated.

and features longer horizon behaviors that reflect anticipation of the consequences of action. This is boring.

No, I'm fascinated by it

Why'd you stop it?

Brad Staggs (01:28:14.882)
the

Brad Staggs (01:28:33.25)
Gameplay consists of 45 second bouts of play from random initial configurations. When a team scores a goal, each agent on that team receives a reward. Then the player positions are reset and the game continues. I mean, this is creepy. I mean, this is the training of AI in real time. I mean, they could barely stand up at the beginning of this thing.

I didn't see where they were standing up.

There are invisible pitch boundaries that keep the ball in the field

What's a bitch boundary?

Make random move. Okay, so what that is So so what that is is when you're when you're starting to date someone

Brad Staggs (01:29:21.452)
This is intense, man. I don't like it. But I mean, because see, here they are. See how they're all laying down now.

Is that a boneless chicken ranch?

Granted granted this is soccer so they could all be flopping trying to get the red card But what's happening is they can't even stand up related human listen to him listen to him Make random movements and do not produce competent behavior. He kicked my shit After training a population of agents for me. I don't know I just I thought it was fascinating but creepy at the same time and Why does it keep going small man? That's what?

Brad Staggs (01:30:00.182)
I was in the pool, Jerry! Hang on, hang on a second. At some point I'm-

See what happens when Rebecca's not here? There's no Norks. There is, it's really just, it's disappointing.

What does that mean?

Brad Staggs (01:30:14.638)
They're giving back stories to AI personalities now. It was a big story like the New York Post or something We're living a lie man. Hold on a second. Are we have more thoughts on this? Yes, because see I want to take a sip, but I'm gonna kiss this thought hang on

swallow it. Swallow. Did you swallow?

Of course, is there any other way? It's urban. So, okay, they're they're topping the charts and all the AI musicians and stuff, musicians, and they've got these personalities, backstories, huge followings on social media. It's really creepy. I know number one gospel song, too. my gosh.

I f*** you right.

Keith Malinak (01:30:49.836)
Number one country song.

Keith Malinak (01:30:56.375)
And they do. Did I play a little bit of Give me a ring sometime.

I'm sorry, hang on. Yeah, I'm creeped out too. I don't like that it teaches itself! It's gonna teach itself to destroy a- If you say Terminator, brats-

WHY?!

Keith Malinak (01:31:12.6)
It is not going, AI is not going to be the death of us. I am so tired of people whining that a computer is going to take over the world. It's not. There was even, hold on a second. have a, it is called, I even did a theme song for AI that, and this is not going to get anybody banned because it's,

I can't find it so it doesn't matter but I did a theme song. It is not going to kill us ai is not going to kill us Are you just sitting really still or did you freeze?

Keith Malinak (01:31:56.814)
Did Keith like freeze? Is he punking me? I don't think that... Did I freeze? Is Keith frozen? He's...

Did he?

Keith Malinak (01:32:14.496)
Okay, I guess Keith did freeze. So anyway, ai took his job. That's kind of weird, but ai is not going to take over The world it's not going to do it. here it is right here And I don't know if you'll be able to hear this if I play this or not

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's not an AI apocalypse.

Thank

Keith Malinak (01:32:45.304)
Thank you.

Keith Malinak (01:32:54.198)
And that's AI. I happen to like AI because AI can do amazing things. It's like being afraid of your lawnmower. Don't do dumb. Don't do what Keith does with a lawnmower and try to trim your bush. Probably could have used a different but don't don't do things like that with it and you'll be fine. I know Keith froze Deb. I don't and so I don't know if he's

Show is yours now, Bard. Bring on the Nork talk. I kid you not. He's not. I don't think. I don't know if he's coming back or not. Dame Piggy do. I'm frozen. This is all a dream.

If we just use AI as a tool, do know how many people freaked out when power tools came along? I mean, you had handsaws and then somebody did I just sorry, hang on. Hold on. Let me call him back. I didn't, I didn't realize he was trying to call me. I didn't see. Hey, just one moment, please.

Keith Malinak (01:34:05.272)
trying to call Keith Malinak. He is the, is this his program? He's the host of the program but okay, I'll hang up now.

Yeah, you hang up.

So.

Do you want to know what I'm having to do here for internet?

Did you have to? Did you? did you have to use your phone?

Brad Staggs (01:34:25.93)
My phone is a hotspot now because the house internet just went poof at the same exact moment that you said.

She says classic ATM and it is this this this particular episode. I think we'll go down in the history It's a key. mean, they're gonna have to erase more of limbaugh's of tape

In hindsight, I should have started drinking at the start of the show. But at the exact moment you said, AI is not going to take over the world, I thought you were taking your, I thought you did that. I thought that is too.

You thought I took over the program?

I think you had pulled your camera down and you were making a point because you went away for me first. and I was still up there. And then when I looked up on the screen back there and I was like, wait a minute, I'm frozen. What the hell?

Keith Malinak (01:35:17.611)
I thought you were punking us and I looked at your face and I'm like no there's no way he can stay still that long.

No, there's not a chance that he could just break in and just keep going, you know?

and This call is going to be recorded this dude

Did you really? You. That's not funny. You thought I did. That shit is funny. did not. I knew you were. I mean, it would have been okay if you had.

No, you thought I would I mean think about this think about what's happened today a microphone the internet What's next? Pipe, okay, we got to talk about the pipe bomber because we're we just got to talk about the pipe bomber here on at the mic So I got the pipe bomber Okay, 70s last time I checked 77 % of the people check. I spent to say check my pole Please don't check right now. See he can't he's gonna laugh. See he can't help but laugh at check my pole

Keith Malinak (01:35:59.596)
The pipe bomber.

Brad Staggs (01:36:21.346)
Go ahead, check it. dear lord, what is happening? Help me. No, the lights behind you, Patrice.

I was wondering how long you're going to to freedom.

the

I should have turned them off.

Keith Malinak (01:36:46.978)
Go deep if you're gonna punk.

It's hard not to go deep when you're punking. And you gotta do it fast too. You gotta punk deep and hard and fast. So anyway, the speaking of.

the

I've checked your poll. You've only gotta hang out for another what? 22 minutes and then you're good and then you can drink and pass out.

Look at this. Look at this. We got four million votes again. Look at that. Do you think the FBI arrested the right person yesterday, Brian Cole, in the January 6th pipe bomb case? Yes, I'm confident. 22%. Eh, I'm not so sure. 77%. All right. So, I mean, we don't believe anything the FBI said.

Keith Malinak (01:37:31.904)
No, I and that's just it. That's the and what okay if this dude And I asked this question this morning this dude this brian cole guy If you know that you're the pipe bomber. Why did he just hang out? Why why wasn't he like gone?

Well, because he literally lived in his parents' basement.

But that's what I'm saying. Well, how if you were the deal you have been long thirty three

What is it?

Brad Staggs (01:37:59.992)
Goodness gracious. Okay.

33. I would you not have just boogied on out of here to anywhere else.

And why does it always get smaller? Every time I put a picture up, it gets smaller. Like, you and I, we get...

It happens. It happens. Just do this.

the

Keith Malinak (01:38:27.742)
I don't want this. What and how did Baker?

Right. Okay, there's two things I need. I need to see Brian Cole walking. Okay. And I need to figure this one out. Get this straight. Okay. I if okay, if I'm great, if I'm going to make a bomb, and I'm going to buy all the ingredients you need, and I still would like to know how they went through 233,000 purchases of was it the end cap or whatever? I don't know what they were saying yesterday. The

issues. Hold on. sold 25,000 pairs of those.

Okay, so I didn't catch that. But here is my question. If you're gonna do something this nefarious and this evil, you're spending, you're buying the, and maybe he's just a dumbass, know, maybe whoever made the bomb is a dumbass, but you're going to, you're gonna do that on a credit card?

You're not gonna go pay cash for all these items? I mean, you gotta think. I mean, everything- people understand that everything you do- my gosh! Everything you do is track- I can't find a fucking place to set this bottle. This is pissing me off!

Keith Malinak (01:39:39.08)
I started buying this stuff in 2019!

Hang on hang on a second. Yeah, I've got to find and I don't know how long this This this hotspots gonna work, but let me find this. Let me let me let me find this guy. What?

While you're looking for that, let me, there was, I don't know, three, four years ago, there was a subreddit, a guy that did like an analysis of everything that we knew about the pipe bomber. He took the video, the crappy video that had been released and he looked at the shoes and he looked at the backpack and he looked at

yeah, I remember the shoes from the earlier report.

And he did all the hey, they only sold this many backpacks. They only sold them at Academy. So he basically went through all of that. And he said, here you go, FBI. Here's all the this is what you can be tracking. They only sold 10,000 of these backpacks, then at least start there. And with the shoes, there were 25,000 pairs of those Nike shoes or whatever they were. So this this was known information years ago.

Keith Malinak (01:40:49.546)
And we all know that the FBI sat on their thumb for all these years.

looking okay there's just too many you you you you mix ADD with all of these things yeah it's shiny things now I forgot what I was looking for so my phone here no so yeah geez dear god Malinak get it together hold on I want to play this for you

The wrong place?

Keith Malinak (01:41:01.705)
now.

Keith Malinak (01:41:06.666)
looking for the dude.

Keith Malinak (01:41:21.078)
I am trying to help.

appreciate it a lot. And I mean that. Ladies and gentlemen, Brad Staggs is a professional. Don't forget the FBI getting that pipe bomber. There he is. Richard Jewell, if you recall. Yeah. I mean, obviously they're really good at tracking down pipe bombers. He's dead. Yes. I thought. And it was actually Eric Rudolph that ended up being the pipe bomber.

yeah.

Keith Malinak (01:41:39.232)
Is he dead?

Keith Malinak (01:41:46.114)
Yeah, who was, wasn't he black too?

No. yeah. Got it. Sorry. We're both small now. I don't know what to tell you. I don't know what to tell you y'all. Hang on. Hang on. I gotta find this. Hang on. This is still in my mind. Gosh, this guy Keith, he tweets so damn much. Watch this. Okay. So are we gonna play it now? Okay. So this is Dan Bongino in Orcash. And this is actually May.

You know, we had

wrong with Dan's eyes?

Brad Staggs (01:42:18.87)
May and I just want you to listen, please listen very carefully to what he says. Considering yesterday they were emphatic when they said no new evidence came in for the pipe bomb stuff. All they did was do good police work on what was already collected there in the four years before they got into office.

You know, we had two pipe bombs planted on January 6th. I mean, we were told by partisan actors out there, this was the insurrection, the world was gonna fall apart and no one seemed to show any interest in this case. The second we got in, I put a team on it and I said, I want answers on this. And I'm pretty confident that we're closing in on some suspects.

Okay, all right, that's May. That's good, okay.

We got.

The reason by the- Okay!

Brad Staggs (01:43:00.32)
We gotta, I just shelve that for a second. We gotta, like he was almost about to say, we got a tip. We got a fascinating tip, but maybe he misspoke and was talking about something else here because he continues.

I use social media with these cases. I'm trying to communicate on social media. Nothing's by accident, guys. I do nothing by accident. Every time I put a tweet out, we get tips. We got a fascinating tip on one of these cases, one of the three. I don't want to say which one, but I'm pretty confident that we're going to close out one of them.

So is he now realizing that he sounds like he's talking about the pipe bomb, but he doesn't want to say that or maybe not. And one of the three he's talking about before that clip started, he was talking about cocaine in the White House and the leaking of the Dobbs case at the Supreme Court, which Steve Friend often points out is illegal. That's not illegal. To leak the Supreme Court case. It's not illegal.

hopefully shortly.

Keith Malinak (01:43:54.872)
Wait, what? What's not illegal?

Keith Malinak (01:44:00.334)
It's not illegal,

Somebody needs to be held accountable for that

I was in charge of that investigation. She's what the Secure, head of security for the pennant or the, excuse me, SCOTUS was a woman. I don't know she's still there or not, but she was like, yeah, we're going to get, we're going to find out who and then crickets.

Okay, so yeah, and I play that because no new evidence But yet they got a fascinating tip that it's gonna get him to somebody soon So if he's not talking about if there's no new tip for the j6 pipe bomber Then what was the tip for the damn cocaine or the Dobbs decision because that's never come to fruition and that clip is six and a half months old now so anyway for what that's worth, but Part of their investigative work

was the purchases at Home Depot and at Walmart, right? And so, let's see here if I can get this. This is what I was referring to. I don't know if this guy, if what he is saying, I don't know if this factor is in at all, but I just found this very interesting. Listen carefully what this guy says. Hey, how does Walmart know what I'm buying in cash?

Brad Staggs (01:45:19.938)
I got an email from them this afternoon that says, can you rate this product that you purchased recently? And I did purchase that product recently from Walmart. I bought it in cash, right? I walked to the electronics section and bought a USB charging cable with cash and then walked out. And I know that the first you're you've already started typing. It's the Walmart app on your phone. You moron. That is a fair assumption. I do not have the Walmart app on my phone. I've never had the Walmart app on my phone.

And further, I did not have my phone with me on this trip. Here's how I know I didn't have my phone with me on this trip. I remember specifically talking to the employee in the back of the electronics section and trying to explain specifically which USB connector I was looking for. And I couldn't explain it well. And so I tried to pull my phone out to show the gentleman what I was looking for. And I didn't have my phone on me.

And so I had to continue my game of terrible charades and torture this poor guy until he finally was like, well, look, here's what we've got. then I was able to find what I needed. But the point being, my phone was not on my person. I don't think I even had my headphones on my person. I didn't have any electronic devices on me. So how does Walmart know what I purchased in cash?

Look at right there.

hang on. I gotta, I honestly, don't know what.

Keith Malinak (01:46:50.368)
It's already up. Walmart, this is Aston. You took it down. Walmart's advanced AI recognition software in all locations.

What does the date on that story?

It's 10 months ago. I recently learned that as to mine as of my knowledge, all current U.S. and maybe more Walmart locations use AI software. This software can pinpoint every Walmart you've ever been to and the exact dollar amount of stuff which you've stolen this case, which my attached image for a quick look at the software. Bobbity, Bob, could anyone ID the software which they're using? And somebody says.

Another reason not to shop at Walmart. This is exactly why paying cash, if I have something only Walmart sells, but then.

Yeah.

Brad Staggs (01:47:41.39)
the

they can find, course. Yes. They, they're cameras everywhere. I mean, that's the way, you like with your, I don't know if the androids do it, but like I'll notice my phone cause that I have the, look at it to unlock it thing, which I'm no, no big. So I'll look over and I can tell it's looking at them because it'll say, it'll be like, okay. Just swipe up to unlock it now.

I know. I know.

Brad Staggs (01:48:08.12)
Make sure I can...

Keith Malinak (01:48:15.572)
It so it's constantly looking and seeing me so those cameras are doing the same thing in Walmart and they're IDing you and

the

the

Keith Malinak (01:48:32.834)
Learn rules and figure out how to get around them

I Kerry, I said, got, I don't really do the password. Dear God, man, unless we do this every time. So Kerry, my wife, I said, you know, don't really do the password thing much anymore because I can't remember. I have so many different passwords. I was like, can you just seriously make a mold of my thumb so that when I get hit by a bus and you need to get into this stuff, you just have a mold because think of that, man. I mean, that's.

I don't know how we do that, but we need we need you need like

can do that. did that in Mission Impossible, right? Didn't they?

yeah, sure, that's a good,

Keith Malinak (01:49:14.094)
All you got to do to do that is dip your finger in. I almost, was going to say dip your finger in hot wax.

Almost said doodoo.

Brad Staggs (01:49:21.678)
It's to do.

and then rub it right here.

Wait a minute with that seriously, how would I how do I make this mold thing with a yeah, how

Hot Wax.

I'm telling you, hot wax, put it in hot wax and then pour silicone into that and then you do. I've already done it. Yeah, I can. What do you need in life?

Brad Staggs (01:49:37.378)
you that for me? Pick them over there?

Brad Staggs (01:49:43.534)
I can't remember that one morning you woke up and your thumb was

right? And you're face itched. No, it's it's fun. Remember you told me you love me. Were you lying? You bastard.

can't wait.

Brad Staggs (01:49:55.726)
Bye.

Brad Staggs (01:50:00.92)
I just wanted you off, man. Let's see, look at this. A federal judge has unsealed the episode.

that's what you meant when you said get off. I didn't. I mistook you. Sorry. That's why when I enter, wait a second.

What? Where's Rebecca? don't So check this out. In Florida, the Epstein Grand Jury files, a federal judge has just unsealed them. He's Transcripts now authorized. I know. The judge cited the passage of the Epstein Files Transparency Act and Trump's signature for allowing the materials to be released. Dead. he's definitely not dead. He's not dead.

I miss her.

Keith Malinak (01:50:37.666)
He's not dead!

Keith Malinak (01:50:42.188)
He's not dead. That's why I'm so frustrated with all this stupid news because it's all horseshit. You can quote me on that.

Keith Malinak (01:50:55.934)
I thought you froze again. You bastard.

I'm trying to-

Brad Staggs (01:51:01.23)
the

I'll just

Keith Malinak (01:51:14.286)
I've been to Stone Mountain, Several times.

Yeah, look at this thing. I only recently realized that not a lot of people know about this thing. you're ever in the Netherlands, it is so cool. mean, sure, it's race it erases as far as some people are concerned, but how do.

most people not know about the mountain.

I love that. That's good way to endear yourself to people as your video starts. How do most people not know? Because they're dumbasses.

I said it.

Speaker 3 (01:51:42.254)
more famous than Mount Rushmore. Just outside of Atlanta, Georgia sits Stone Mountain, the largest exposed piece of granite on earth.

It should

Keith Malinak (01:51:51.214)
I just thought of something.

There's a joke in there somewhere, go ahead.

No, just remind him. First, I don't think I've ever seen it from the air like this before.

Have you been to the top and you've done a little gondola thing down? Yeah

But I don't think I've ever seen it. For whatever reason, I don't think I've

Speaker 3 (01:52:12.814)
into its face is a design so massive it dwarfs rushmore stretching three acres wide and 400 feet high it shows confederate leaders jefferson davis robert e lee jackson riding their horses the carving was

Wait a minute, we-

We need that.

Brad Staggs (01:52:30.712)
Do they still hold on a second anybody in Atlanta because I haven't been to the laser show the stone mountain laser show when that thing started was the coolest thing in the world and they did all these things, you know shapes and stuff and Georgia stuff and Elvis but at the end they played the battle him of the Republic or whatever it was I don't know and then the Confederate guys right off and all the rednecks. Yeah

Woo!

Yeah, so uh-huh, and I just wonder if they still finish that show like that like they did when I was in high school 30 years ago

was started in 1916, but it took more than half a century and several failed attempts before it was finally finished in 1972. Beyond the carving, the mountain itself is just as impressive. Rising 1,700 feet above sea level, it's a granite dome believed to have formed more than 300 million years ago. Today, it's the centerpiece of Stone Mountain Park.

Visitors hike or ride a cable car to the summit for views of Atlanta.

Brad Staggs (01:53:42.763)
It's really cool. I love it,

I was thinking about because I again I've never seen it I guess from and I don't know why but it reminds me of Barabar caves in India

Okay, time out. Time out. Keep talking, but then time out.

Well, no, it just it reminds me because that's what the bear of our caves look like in India the in a big chunk of rock hanging out and inside there are these These caves that are like perfectly Carved out and smooth and every and and thousands of years old and they're so accurate to within like thousands of an inch and how the hell did they do it they did it with machine

Yeah, yeah.

Brad Staggs (01:54:24.59)
Yeah, yeah, that's kind of the old

So are there caves inside Stone Mountain that they've just never told us about? That's my question.

Can we just pause for second? We need a new name for Stone Mountain. Come on, that is so boring. Stone Mountain.

I'm just saying. We need somebody famous to die, you know?

Brad Staggs (01:54:53.166)
Trump Mountain. whoa. Skinner Mountain. Bird Mountain.

Skynyrd Mountain. Freebird Mountain. Stairway to Heaven Mountain. Mountain. It could be, no, no, Stairway to Heaven Mountain could be the word of the day.

No, that's too wordy.

Brad Staggs (01:55:07.406)
You see that 33 % that were surveyed by NBC News say that only 33 % say a four-year college degree is worth the cost. I think that's awesome that people are turning away from college now.

We

63 % say it's not worth the cost. It's not worth the time!

No, we did a story this morning on a woman who She quit her job as a nurse bought a laundromat And is running a laundromat and she was mentored by a dude Who owns several and says if I could go back in time, I would never have gotten a master's degree. Yeah, I would have just gone and bought Laundromats and he said they're they're like a license to print money and that's what I would have done. Yeah, there's only laundromats

I was listening to you, however, I was distracted by a great suggestion by Wisconsin Jackhole, Norquist.

Keith Malinak (01:56:06.963)
Nor can I thank you that is perfect.

Norke Mountain. It's like it's like a Off in the distance just east of Atlanta one singular stone Noor rises up above the landscape now. Hold on a second now this next comment here I haven't had a chance to read all of it from Julie I love you Julie. This is very It's a lot of words on your on your post here. I want to see what happens on the screen Does it just take up does it block me and Brad? No, I was hoping it would

That have been nice if we had just disappeared.

So there are caves there, huh? Very cool. Wait a minute. could walk.

But she said small accessible, small accessible, but not big cool ones. it just because they would not they wouldn't tell us they would lie about it. And we'd never know if if they did have the cool ones like a bear of our caves because they would want us to know because it's the machine, the man and the machine holding us down.

Keith Malinak (01:57:02.454)
Now you know how black people feel.

Keith Malinak (01:57:07.608)
Did you f-

Did you? You know-

deeper but large expensive natural caverns.

is happening? is... Okay, there are pranks. Then there are pranks that take balls. And I think this is one of the greatest pranks ever. I don't know if it's real, it seems real, but... This guy...

Jay Parking only!

Keith Malinak (01:57:34.21)
Is this your vehicle right here? This vehicle right here? Yeah, is it yours? It's my car, Oh it is? Okay. Um, are you gay by chance? Am I what? Are you gay? No, I'm not. Because you parked in the uh, right there, I don't know if you saw, in the gate parking only. You didn't see it when you pulled in? No. Yeah, because it's gonna be a- What am I gonna be fined for this? I mean, unless you just tell me you're gay. Why can't I move?

Uh, because you've been parked here already, sir. Unless you just tell me and I'll just scratch it. I'm gay. Oh, you are gay? Okay. All right. Perfect. So I'm to have to ask you just like three simple questions so that I can prove that you're actually gay. Just real quick on a scale one through 10, how gay are you? One through 10. One. Oh, that's not gay enough. Maybe like nine. Okay. Okay. You are nine. Okay. Perfect. And then second question here. Could you give me your best gay voice to prove that you're actually gay? Okay.

Perfect. And the next question here is how many men have you slept with? Seven. Seven men? Holy, you were really gay then, huh? Okay, that's all sir. You're good to go. you going to tell me that there were certain parking just for gay people? Yeah, it's part of the LGBTQ community. It's a new thing of San Francisco. Just to make sure to look out for those. All right.

Okay, first of all, if that was a thing in San Francisco, then you wouldn't need to put signs up.

I pray to God that I'm never old and dumb like that. I don't ever want to be. cannot see myself being that ignorant. It's not stupid. It's ignorant. If that wasn't the setup, if that wasn't, if that wasn't a con, I just, cannot see myself ever being that clueless.

Brad Staggs (01:59:03.022)
Alright.

Brad Staggs (01:59:11.394)
Ignore.

Brad Staggs (01:59:21.068)
You ever done good, good pranks? I bet you're a prankster, or at least you were at some point when you were fun.

Brad Staggs (01:59:32.334)
You tell me about some of your pranks there. no, he froze. He got his life stolen.

those lights going on in the background.

That's awesome! I love that. Oh, did you see Jacob Fry, the pathetic mayor of Minneapolis, He went to a Somali restaurant because he wanted to prove that, you know, I love the Somali! I love their food and their culture and their the fabric. OK, watch him eat. You seeing this? Oh, this is so good. Give me some more of this. Play with his food here. He's not going to.

Peace and I-

Brad Staggs (02:00:13.646)
the

Brad Staggs (02:00:30.382)
No, my hair so straight though. It's just

Mine's gay-ird and

but the

straight here I want gay here

Keith Malinak (02:00:56.206)
That's not real. It's not real. No. they got parachutes on.

yeah, you're good catch.

Okay, then yeah, then that might be real. Yeah, they get parachutes.

Why are you doing this though? Why do we do this?

the

Brad Staggs (02:01:12.642)
You gonna watch Dr. Thing this summer, you big, or do hate America?

Okay, I know. What happens if they kick the ball off the thing and that hits somebody in the head?

kills him dead, right? That's exactly right. That would destroy... That would kill. Let me see if I have any other tabs open here. No, I think...

That would kill the hell out of you right there.

Brad Staggs (02:01:32.334)
I want to hear about your, what's the biggest prank you ever pulled, bro?

that you can talk about without being sued.

Brad Staggs (02:01:45.038)
Which one?

Did we do this before? You know what? I remember I did a prank thing. yeah, Stanley, that was... No, that was a prank. I thought you were just being hit on and...

Finally!

How can you forget Stan Lee?

Keith Malinak (02:02:00.694)
Well, technically it was a prank. mean, I didn't want to be a dick. I didn't want to be used as a and you're shaking too much. You're laughing too hard inside. Yeah. It wasn't really, I mean, it was a prank, but I didn't want it to be. didn't, you know, we wasn't trying to make Stanley feel bad. You didn't want him to feel.

Right.

Brad Staggs (02:02:14.574)
Okay, that's fun

Brad Staggs (02:02:24.878)
You just have such natural charm and beauty.

do. I can't help it if it's it's all of this in one package and. Yeah. It's irresistible to no matter what side of the plate you're standing on.

I got it. That's good. Okay, everybody. What'd you say? Look how I lean in like it like it's gonna make me hear better. What were you?

Keith Malinak (02:02:46.446)
Yeah.

It's up on the thing. That's tomorrow morning. What are words for the national? We're to be live from the National Institute for Word Creation and Deletion. No, it's downtown and it's right next to the the other store.

Brad Staggs (02:03:24.002)
Thanks to the guy that parked.

Right.

and

deletion yes it's done to sip and we're gonna be there

It's like you go through a tunnel every time. Downtown, where can people go?

Keith Malinak (02:03:48.782)
downtown. And when we are there, we're going to be giving away free beverages of your choice. And plus somebody could win a million dollars. And that that happens if I think

microphone is what needs fixing.

Keith Malinak (02:04:16.142)
seriously, what the is going on? Cuz I don't know what happens when that does.

I don't dare touch my microphone. Because if I were to touch my microphone, even to do this little bit thing you're doing, it may never work again. Like I don't even want to look at it. It might make it stop working. You know what people people I think schedule their lives around this show. And they're like, man, at five o'clock Eastern, I know these guys are going to wrap this shit up and be done for the day. But yet we just we just keep on that one. Keep on about he was hoping.

I gave him enough time to finally try to pull this little bit off where he could do the little pausey pause with his lights. it picked up some audio. You see that? It picked up audio. Son of a bitch. All right. Have a good weekend, everybody. Don't forget, if you haven't seen the Alpha Gal Syndrome conversation I had yesterday with Kerry Toms and the weaponization.

through your tax dollars by the US government over the years since the 60s. What a nightmare. We got mad scientists up and down this government and it continues today, Dr. Fauci. And it's it's frightening. It's insane. It's like America, what are you doing? And then we're gonna do the deep dive Thursday at 3 p.m. with Brad Statt. In fact, hey Brad.

Yes, kids.

Brad Staggs (02:05:40.354)
I want you to tune in next Thursday. I'm to have this really cool guy named Brad hanging out here with me and Kelly. Yeah, he's cool. Not like you, not like your level of cool.

I'm kind of queer for Brad.

I should go now. Have a good weekend, everybody. I really appreciate you. I guess we were on YouTube as well. I don't know if we'll keep doing that. I'd love to hear some feedback if that's more convenient for you. Send me a DM and let me know because seriously or posted under the show, I really would like to know what is more convenient for you as far as watching this. I'm serious. And Brad is now figured out how to turn his lights off. I'm going to yell so loud. So you've got to reach for the microphone now. I'm going to yell so loud.

It's gonna make the thing back there light up and betray you! Ha! my gosh, it actually froze up. I'm hanging up. Bye.
