Pulk County Sheriff Grady Judd online. Grady Judd lives to make criminals' lives miserable. And Lakeland Police Department, they said they had the back of Polk County. He posted online that the Polk County Sheriff couldn't find him.

So Lakeland found him and then they gave him over to Polk County. I love it. I want it. Not because he was, because he literally actually has a, he's like an accepted repeat, or he's a repeat offender. And he said, They were challenging him.

He goes, You all didn't catch me when I left my grandma's house today. You should have been waiting, you should have waited longer because they went to go serve a warrant. And so they got him. They said, yeah, challenge accepted, we got you.

So they got him and then they posted a photo with him in cuffs and he's smiling and they're smiling. Yeah. It's actually hysterical. Do you see the photo where he's like They're all smiling at each other. It was hysterical.

But he had multiple felony warrants. He fought the law, and the law totally won. But uh yeah, they uh and you know, he he didn't fight or he didn't resist arrest or anything. I I'll give him that. You know, he goes, Maybe you're gonna need a horse or a helicopter.

Level up, hashtag level up, hashtag I'm gone greedy. And they caught him anyway. But I love how they all took photos with him and he smiled. He didn't resist arrest. He went willingly.

He's like, okay, you got me. You know, I guess game's got to recognize game.

Okay. Let's see here. A got a box cutter attack. We also, oh, I can't read this one. This one's I don't understand.

A Florida man broke into a random house because he was trying to get away from his angry wife. Dang. Holy cow. Right? This poor man.

Uh apparently A 44-year-old Florida man just snuck into a random house. He did not want to go home to his wife. He was mad. And he broke into the house. He stayed there for several days.

He cooked several meals and had a luxurious bath. A neighbor tasked with watching the house while the homeowner was away noticed: like, there's some stuff going on. They said, There's a dude here in your house making dinner and he just had a bath. It's like Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Right.

He just comes on in and sits in all the chairs and all that.

So he didn't have any idea who owned the house, but when the police were asking why did how did this happen? He's like, I did not want to go home because my wife is very angry. He did not want to go like, what? I wanted to be like, what is happening to you? How bad is she?

So let me just get it out of the way.

Some people are like, I don't know, female action figure. First off, I guess you forget Ripley. Mm-hmm. and I guess you forget Sarah Connor. It is very much in that 80s vein.

I am, as someone who loves action movies, I'm not a rom-com girl. I'm actually horror and I love thrillers. uh murder mysteries and I love action. And this is very much in the vein of Ripley and Sarah Connor. It is not like the modern-day Mary Sue.

It is not. And she's not a Mary Sue. In this film, Ballerina. Directed by Lynn Weissman. My friend Taryn Butler did all the gun foo on it.

Anada Armas, she was spectacular. She was a belie she's an action star now. She was spectacular. The stunts were spectacular. And I am really harsh on movies.

I will not go to a theater and sit and see a movie unless I know I'm going to be engrossed by it because I can't stand being captive like that. I am such a fidget. I can't sit still. From start to finish, this was compelling. And they addressed the Mary Sue stuff early on.

Early on, they're like, this is not no Mary Sue movie.

Okay, first and foremost, it's not. She gets hit. She gets hit a lot. She bleeds. I don't want to give anything away.

But let's just say John Wick can still, in a blink of an eye, make her disappear. There is a difference. And it is well explained. And it is done with respect to the audience. They are not telling you to suspend all disbelief and just, you know, and just embrace this full on.

They may it is believable and she is powerful and she is vulnerable. And identifiable.

So, you understand the whole revenant concept to John Wick, right? The spirit of vengeance. It's one of the things that drives John Wick and makes him absolutely unassailable. And you see that develop in her. And it is a phenomenal thing to watch because it is expressed differently.

John Wick had it. He dealt with loss and he had pain power him. And she dealt with loss and has pain power her. And it's very, very, it is so artfully explained in the male and female, it is not woke. It has not woke at all.

So, you can enjoy it. I mean, it's, you know, again, it's like a John Wick series.

So, there's people getting, you know. Getting told right and left. Let's just put it like that. Oh my gosh, the stunts are fabulous. The soundtrack's good.

The casting is superb. It's, I mean, you've got Ian McShane and Gabriel Byrne in the same movie. It's just fabulous. And yes, Keanu Reeves makes an appearance. That's all I'm going to say.

I'm not going to give anything away. It is a must-see, and I never tell you that. Raoni Kinchin, that series, I said that was a must-see. This is a must-see. It is very, it fits in perfectly with the John Wick universe.

It's part of that. There's so many different stories that they can tell with all of these other characters. It is so well done. You're gonna love it. Go see it.

Go see it this week. Go see it next before it's out of theaters. Because it is well worth it. And I think Anna DeArmis is, she is an action star. I did not know what to expect with her.

But remember, Uh she was also in what was she in she not James Bond, but she was in the movie with uh didn't she do a film with Tom Cruise or something like that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And she was good in that. And I thought, okay, well, I can foresee her being, you know, doing the action in this. And it is phenomenal.

She does such a good job. The stunts are amazing. And when you think, okay, well, they can't get any more inventive with the stunts after, you know, John Wick, one, two, three, four. Oh, yeah, they can. And it's fabulous.

It's just a really great story, and it sets up for a sequel. It sets up for a continued str I hate scene sequel. It sets up for a continuation of the story. I loved it. I thought it was a great film.

And, you know, I always go in and I harbor a little bit. You know, I'm like, let's see how it's fabulously done. And I think you're going to like it. But I can't say enough how much I appreciated how they addressed. the female as an action lead.

Especially after we went through about two decades of nonsense, right? And this really gets back to what we loved about 80s female action stars like Sarah Connor and Ripley. The vulnerability, which was erased by third and fourth wave feminism, talking about women in action films, is absent here. It is very much in that old school spirit, which is one of the reasons why I immediately loved it. And they make that clear in the first like 15 minutes.

It is so great.

So I was so happy with this. This is a. A female I would say Chaos neutral that you can get behind. I think that's the best way to describe her.

So good, so good. My whole house loved it. And my whole house never loves a movie all at once. It's very rare that we all do. And they loved it.

And we all thought the same thing. And I have a house of dudes, you know, and I have young men. In my house, that are very critical of because they were raised with these Mary Sue kind of characters, right? And girl power and girl boss. There is none of that in this film.

So do not go in thinking. That, oh, well, you're a dude, you may not be able to appreciate it. This is not girl boss BS. It is none of that. If you liked Ripley, if you liked Sarah Connor, if you loved that vein of female action star, you are going to love this movie.

I want to go see it again. I can't believe I have never. John Wick is the only time I've ever gone to the theater to see the same movie. Before. Yes.

Oh, I love action movies. I would see this in the theater again. Absolutely. It's that good. It is that good.

Oh my gosh.

I so badly want to spoil one scene for you so bad because the stunt was so good. That was good. I'm the person who's like, what? In the theater, I'm so annoying. But I was trying to play it down.

It's really good.

So, you guys got to go see it. Ballerina, all the stars.

So good. Recently, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis legalized gold and silver as acceptable currency, meaning that Floridians can now make transactions in gold and silver, thus creating an alternative to the U.S. dollar.

Her portfolio outperformed every large hedge fund with stunning returns.

Now, if you think it's just because she's a savvy investor, I have a bridge to sell you. Same thing with Marjorie Taylor Green. Like, she walked in there with, you know, I think, what, a few hundred thousand dollars in the bank and she walks out with 20, she's like currently at 22 million. Either she's the savviest investor ever, or there's insider trading going on.

Sorry, but that's true. I don't care how sanctified you think some of these people are. They are trading stuff out with information used that you and I would go to jail for. Totally unfair. I think every single one of these rat bastards, right or left, has got to be audited because that's insane.

So, this is what I think they're thinking she made. Listen to this. anywhere between seven or no sorry eight to 42 million last year Pelosi. Is she just a savvy investor, guys? Dude, she would be ru she'd be richer than uh Uh Oh my gosh, who am I thinking of?

The Nebraska guy. I can't think of his dad. Stop it. She's drunk every old day. She's drunk every day.

She's not making those decisions. She's just a savvy investor. Robotic surgery performed remotely from the United States on a patient in Africa.

Now, robotic surgery is not new, but remotely? That's pretty interesting. I think that that's kind of actually kind of pretty cool. It was a robotic. Protestectomy surgery that was performed remotely from Florida on a patient in Angola, and it was an FDA-approved clinical trial.

Telesurgery. That is actually amazing. And also, think of all of the different ways that you could actually be training people. Like, you know, hand-eye coordination, motor skills. I'm telling you, video games has been training people forever for the future.

Forever. It really has been. Speaking of which, Arbites is now out today, Dark Tech 40K. I will be nowhere near the internet tonight. I just want to let you know.

I'm going to get all huffed up on like Mountain Dew Zero and I'm going to play Dark Tide all night. I'm going to be probably a hot, I know it's professional lady radio. This happens once in a blue moon. Not even going to lie to you. New classes out, all kinds of new stuff.

That is the big thing today. It's like Christmas for Dana, Christmas part two. Ate dead after a hot air balloon accident in southern Brazil. I will not get into a hot air balloon. Because we have invented other ways to travel the air.

Just like I don't pretend to be homeless, I'm not going to get in a hot air balloon. I don't find it romantic. I don't find anything about it, you know, nothing. No, it's not. It's not.

Sweltering heat is expanding because it's summer. And everyone's like, oh my gosh, it's a heat wave. Yeah, because it's summer. If you've gained, I think, 500,000 followers and such, and your jersey's selling out, how cool is that for your yeah, you know, it's cool. It's funny what kind of people are attracted to.

You know, I'm just trying to keep the main thing, the main thing is that's basketball, trying to win games, sticking up for my teammates. That's all part of it. I think all that stuff is, it's fun and whatnot, but at the end of the day, we need to win some basketball games. You played in front of your PAX house a few nights back, the other night, the energy, and so you just go, tomorrow you're on the Las Vegas Strip. What can be at Las Vegas expect from Shelby?

Oh, oh, you know what? I'm just going to be me. I don't go in there trying to predetermine anything. You know, I'm dialed in. I need to focus on hitting my shots, making sure I'm executing the schemes right.

I'm not focused on the extracurricular activities. And you know what? During that, it was just part of the game. I think the refs had a lot to do with that. It was a buildup for a couple of years now of them just not protecting the star play of the WNBA.

And so at the end of the day, I'm going to protect my teammates. That's what I do. And I'm a team player. Golly, can we just give her a medal already? Shimity Christmas.

She's America's best friend.

Sophie Cunningham, America's best friend. She is the the a n the new a new star, a new star in a WNBA. And, like I said last week, all the race lesbians are all real mad over that. They're all real mad at her because they just did not want her. They didn't like Caitlin Clark.

Now they're not going to like it. You got all these, they got race hustlers involved that are mad about it. Just play ball. Like, y'all are the only ones that are like making this a divisive thing. Just play ball.

This is not an issue. It's so simple. Just play ball. And that's what she corrected a problem that was obstructing their ability to place that ball. Just saying.

I can't like her enough. Her jerseys are sold out. I never wanted to wear it.

Well, I did, I lied. I did, uh... Uh couple cards jerseys I had. Right. But Never wore anybody's basketball jersey.

Now I'm like, man, I'd wear Sophie Cunningham's basketball jersey. That's America's best friend right there, the Enforcer. Yeah. She's WNBA's Tony Twist. That's right.

I'm just saying. Love it. And she's all like, I'm just focusing on the game. They're not focusing on the game. The people that are causing the ladies that are causing all these problems, the women that are causing all these problems on the court.

are not the ones focusing on the game. And I get it. I think the WNBA, they're like, it's a double-edged sword because this is bringing them attention and they like it. But at the same time, Is it best for your teammates to allow this stuff to happen on the court to that extent? I mean, you're always gonna have some, you're always gonna have aggression.

I mean, it's part of the sport. But to that extent. Is what we're talking about, right? To that extent. And the idea, she got fined $400, Sophie Cunningham, that apparently Caitlin Clark paid for.

God love it. Everybody was already like we're gonna go fund me for Sophie Cunningham. She gets fined and she got ejected, and the other, I mean. Sheldon didn't get ejected, and she's the one who stuck her finger in her eye. How do you not get ejected for that?

Did you see I put it up on Instagram Do you see that I it was there were two photos of that You can see how deliberate it was in one photo, and in the next photo, you see Sheldon smirk. Yeah, how happy she was.

So, yeah, Sophie Cunningham.

Sophie, I didn't see, I didn't, that was fair play. What I saw, I didn't see none. Do y'all see anything in that? I didn't see anything. I I just saw Sophie Cunningham playing ball.

I don't know what y'all talking about. Thanks for tuning in to today's edition of Dana Lash's Absurd Truth Podcast.
