Dana Lash's Absurd Truth Podcast. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. Yeah. It's time for Florida Man. All right, so first up for Florida Man.
Hmm. I mean, I guess you really can get a DUI on every, if you're drunk and you're riding anything, because you can get one on a horse. a lawnmower. Uh golf cart. And now, an e-bike.
A Florida man riding an e-bike was arrested for a DUI after refusing sobriety tests.
So, wait a minute, I got a question. What if you're on like a bike? bicycle. No. I mean if it's just your feet that power it.
Can you do that? I'm curious. If you're getting one on a horse. It doesn't yeah, but that can operate under its own power. Right, which means it's not drunk.
You are. Oh, yeah.
So, a man riding an e-bike, I swear to you, I'm still on Spider Watch right now. In case you just joined, a spider, like in our first hour, descended from the ceiling when I was live on air. And the fact that I did not burn down the whole studio. is proof of God.
So if I freak out randomly, it's because of that. I just swear. I'm like, I feel like I see it. Oh my god. Nothing scares me about that.
Anyway. A man riding an e-bike was arrested for DUI. The 34-year-old crashed and fell off backwards in a crosswalk. He took He declined how did he do that? He declined multiple sobriety tests and now He's getting an e-bike.
I or getting a DOI. He was on his e-bike. I um But I didn't know you could get that. On an e-bike. I mean, probably.
And they said he smelled like alcohol before they even got into his person. They could smell it. And he was like, I'm sotily Tober, Ossifer. He, you know, said he wasn't intoxicated, and he totally was. And when they asked about his crash, the man laughed and said he was trying to show off, and then he declined.
uh breathalyzers and all of that.
So apparently when they got him to the pokey he was drunky. Uh, so uh man, and Florida Man accused of driving 100 miles per hour while drunk and hopped away from deputies during the stop in Collier County. He was arrested. You're not gonna be able to hop away from the police in Collier County? Police say the attacker was dead when they found her.
She had a self-inflicted wound and she matched the description given in an earlier police alert, female wearing a dress with brown hair. That is extremely unusual. It's rare to have a female attacker. You know, and it's rare because it wasn't a female. He had a penis.
And that made him a male. And he wore a dress. that he was still a dude. Because, dude. Science.
Welcome back to the show. We're on Spider Watch, by the way. Spider descended from the ceiling, and I almost can't even talk about anything else. If it kills me while I'm all live on air, I don't know. But if I see it again and I upend the desk and run out screaming, you know why.
Nothing else scares me in this world but those things. Don't know why.
So, welcome back, bottom of this first hour. And um That was sky news. And the media has been very insistent that they respect the pronouns of the The Canadian mass killer. Lorraine has a piece that's going up here momentarily. over at Substack chapter and verse.
Because I mean It is an epidemic. And the last couple of I mean The last several ones have been a chick cosplaying as a dude. Massacre seven in high school. And then took his own life. And the way that it's being described, six killed, one, I think, passed later, and then 25 injured.
And it was in British Columbia. The mom was a big trans rights, whatever. You know, instead of helping this dude. they decided to pump him full of what SSRIs and hormones and all of this other stuff and which, you know, affect your mood and everything. And there was just no concern about the effect that that was going to have on him.
I I just It's sad to watch this, but the way that the media has been talking about this. And you just heard Sky News get in.
Well, it's very rare.
Well, you know why? It's rare because it didn't happen. It's a dude who did it. It is a dude There were like two that were women. This one was a dude.
Just because he wears a dress does not mean that You know, and it doesn't, and it made it very confusing in the early. Remember this happened in Nashville too, Kane. Do you remember? When That trans killer, the female who pretended to be man. When The media was reporting on it.
There were even conservatives that were kind of arguing between or arguing amongst themselves. Because the media was like, oh, it's a It's a young male, etc. And then people thought, oh, it's a man who's pretending to be a woman. It's no, it was a woman pretending to be a man. But it was so confusing and the media helped foment all of the confusion.
They drove the confusion about all of it. How are you accurately reporting on something when you're playing into the person's delusions. And when you're tabulating statistics on crime as a way to better assess and deal with it. Um How are you able to successfully do that? When you can't even be honest about the perpetrator involved.
Now part of this came down to the police. that are there in Canada. in British Columbia because The police immediately came out of the gate. being very politically correct with the pronouns and all of that stuff, right? And they're Yeah, yeah, yeah, gun person, remember?
Oh, a gun person Oh, my gosh I saw what was the Babylon Bee headline about that? Oh, there was one. Oh, yeah.
Canadian reporter person announces police persons have identified gun person. We're just gonna go with that forever now. Yes, Canadian reporter persons announced that police persons have confirmed the identity of the gun person in Tumblr Ridge. Via Battle on B, anchor persons at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation confirmed that news persons on the ground had confirmed the identity with multiple police persons and fire persons present at the scene. Quote, CBC News can now confirm that the local patrol persons have positive ID on the gun person, said reporter person Brad Stevenson.
Quote, the identification came through a city council person who passed a tip from a mail person onto a police person. And we now go live to our camera person who is on the scene. At publishing time, the CBC anchor person had turned things over to the station's weather person for what to expect this weekend. We're just going to do this for forever. President person.
Right? Mayor person, governor, person. We're just going to do a person, everything. Uh I um Now they used the gun person and then l later said, Oh, it was a female killer. And immediately everyone was like, mm was it?
No, it wasn't. It was a dude who just started to identify as a female. There is a big problem with this psychosis.
So it's a very sadistic dude who decided, he decided that the way to fix all of his mental instability was cosplaying as a female.
So his mom allowed him to be pumped full of drugs. And he, I, they said that he, oh, you're gendered this. Oh, you're trans. I mean, no, you're, you're, you're evil and probably like legit crazy. to the point where you're gonna you're a danger to yourself and others obviously.
Don't you think it's a bad thing if someone's unhinged, mentally ill, and has violent tendencies, it's probably a bad idea to pump them full of SSRIs and just a ton of hormones. Yeah? Do we all kind of agree on that aspect of it? Probably bad. But that's what they did.
And then the media Goes around, oh well, you know, we're going to respect the pronouns. And the police said it too. This was a press conference. And which one uh this is audio eleven two thousand and fourteen. Listen to this.
This is cut 14. This is wild. We're not hiding it. In fact, you're the first media to ask the question. I will say this.
We identify the suspect as they chose to be identified in public and in social media. I can say that Jesse was born as a biological male who approximately the information that I have approximately six years ago began to transition to female and identified as female both socially and publicly.
So the race candidate. the suspect as they choose. We're gonna use like plural pronouns like Gollum says Hobbits's. We're just gonna also butcher the English language. First off, I think when you murder people, you don't get to be like, I'm sorry, you must respect my preferred pronouns.
You're lucky to be alive. I mean, good heavens, but this guy was a gunshot wound. He ended up taking care of himself. But. No, we're not going to sit here and do the preferred pronoun.
Like coddling a murderer. Because you're so afraid of the trans stuff, I can't deal with it.

We're still on Spider Watch. FYI, it's gonna be all show. Oh my gosh. Looking over the ceiling.
Okay. Um. Apparently in Maryland, there was a failure in a 72-inch sewer pipe. and it released billions of gallons of raw sewage into the Potomac just inside the Beltway. It's the largest spill, is how it's considered, of wastewater in U.S.
history. And so far, nobody has said anything over there. The DC water CEO, apparently, they've addressed it very quietly, but nobody's really, it's considered the largest in history. and 72 inch sewer pipe. It's known as the Potomac Interceptor, and it resulted in hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage.
So basically a bunch of Congress people are swimming in the Potomac right now. Aha, I mean it though. It's the spider. It's that because he's watching me. It's happening right now.
Oh my gosh, we do not deserve dogs, you guys. If Daisy was here, she'd beat the tar out of that little spider. This Daisy's hardcore. A hero dog. This is such a great story.
We don't deserve dogs, they're angels. A hero dog guides police to a missing three-year-old. It was uh it was in Kentucky. and Louisville Metropolitan Police Officer Josh Thompson. And his fellow officers were searching for a three-year-old boy on January 7th when this collie, Mix, appeared and began barking at them.
and it's all on video. And Thompson said he was a little leery of the dog. He didn't recognize it despite his usual patrols, but the dog was persistent and barked directly at the officers like he was trying to communicate.
So Thompson jokingly relented, acknowledged the dog, and Thompson told the dog, hey, let's go find this kid, because he knew it was a colin, he was making a joke. But no, the dog literally led them to a garage area where a car was parked, and they found a frightened child locked inside of the front passenger seat.
So Thompson said he went to dad mode, instructed the boy on how to unlock the car so the officers could get him out. The boy was scared but unharmed and reunited with his family. And They said they didn't know where the dog came from. Please tell me that this dog is this family's dog or that this dog, because I want this dog. If no one takes this dog, I want this dog.
It's mine. He's mine. I'm not even joking. How amazing is that? That's so great.
Like, he knew that there was some trouble.
So sweet. Airspace closure spat over drone-related tests. Apparently, it was a party balloon that got shot down.
So, was it a fight between the FAA and the Pentagon? Like, what was happening? Because they closed it all, and apparently, it was a party balloon that they shot down. Guys. Seriously.
A party balloon. That's the story. I mean, I think it was aliens and they had a shootout, but that's me. We'll go with the. We'll go with the party balloon, I guess.
Sure, why not? Smart underwear, why? It tracks gut bacteria by measuring flatulence. Do you really need smart underwear? Do you really need it?

Okay, how many of you knew that there was a gay days at all? I didn't. I didn't either.
Alright. They usually do it during the Pride stuff. Oh, wait, that's coming up, right? When all the companies decide to slap rainbows all over everything and then convene, and then like right after, that's no, we're doing this now. They switch it up.
They had a lot of major corporate sponsors that have stopped sponsoring pride events in Florida. And so gay days Apparently they would go to Disney World and it began in 1991 as a single gay da a single gay day gathering. I think if you're an adult and you go to Disney World without kids, it's weird. I'm sorry, but I'm not actually sorry. I just don't know why I said that.
I'm not at all even remotely sorry. I think it's weird. It's weird. Like, I don't like going to theme parks or amusement parks with kids. Because I just germaphobe, although COVID made me rail against it, my germaphobia in spite, out of spite.
You know, when the moment the government started telling you you shouldn't go out or touch things, I was like, I'm going to go and get all the germs just to spite you. You know, two fingers in the air. What? And ran out the door. But like theme parks or amusement parks are gross and they have everything I don't like.
You know, it's loud, it's sticky, you're waiting a lot, and there's lots of people, and I just. And all the people are touching the same things that you're touching and it's just just hell on earth.
So I don't know. It's just weird that anybody would be like, you know, the adults that go and they buy the ears and they go, like, what are you doing? Anyway, so that's why this is even, without even the gay days being part of it, it was already weird, right? Bunch of adults going to Disney World for the day, and now it's gay days, a day where it's like, this is the day where we tell everyone how we have this sex. And they go and it's a it it is a Day at the theme park for people who like to have sex a certain way.
That's really it. And I just like, why are you siloing yourself off, number one? I thought it was all about like inclusion and everything. Why are you setting yourself apart, number one? And number two, Why does everything have to revolve about how you get it down?
It's just so damn tiring and weird. You know, I don't like onions in my tomato sauce. I like, I prefer garlic. I don't think they can both coexist.
So, do I get a special flag for that? Do I have the no onions in my sauce day at Disney? I mean, where is my recognition? I'm feeling excluded. I also want to be a part.
Like, where when does it stop? You know, Kane likes bacteria water. The tea. He literally grows a little disc of it. The way you describe it just doesn't.
Is it wrong? Is it wrong? Don't pan bonding me. Is it wrong? According to the law, you're not wrong.
Okay, there we go. Good God. Cane likes bacteria water. I'm not passing judgment. I'm just very.
Telling you what it is. What is it, the scabies in the water or something? God, no, no, it's called a scoby. It's an acronym. Scabies is something completely different that you don't get from drinking kumbu.
Sorry, I didn't mean to identify the wrong name of the bacteria in your backwater. It's okay. It's but still, Water Keefer is better if you want to try that. Like Kiefer Sutherland? Yes.
Exactly. I think so. What a weird anyway. My point is that Kane doesn't get a flag. Where's your flag at, dude?
We're going to have so many different flags that we're not even going to be able to walk through life without going, What does that mean? What does that mean? What does that mean? Well, I'm a fourth spirit. By Trans person thing.
I mean, when does it end?
So people are kind of I think companies are kind of tired of sponsoring it. I really, I mean, when you get a day at Disney, are you really oppressed? You know, you get a whole day at Disney.
Now, if you were in Iran and you were launched off the rooftop like Mardi Gras beads, then yeah, I mean, I'd be like, that's probably some oppression happening there. But you have a whole day at Disney, you get gay day discounts, there's gay day everywhere, you get a whole gay month. A whole month about how you have sex. That's it. And there are gay people that are tired of the gay days.
They're like, can we stop this? This is so stupid. I actually Don't know anybody who is gay that does this stuff. That does the pride stuff or the gay day stuff. Who does it?
Where are these people coming from? Are they all just leftists? Where are they coming from? But anyway, so they paused it for a year because nobody's going to sponsor it. They apparently can't get sponsors.
That's the problem. They said, after careful consideration, we've made the difficult decision to pass the gate event. Changes to our host hotel agreement, the loss of key sponsorship support. Don't I saw the spider? Oh.
He didn't see it. Broader challenges Currently impacting events nationwide made it impossible to deliver the experience our community deserves. This is a pause, not an ending, blah, blah, blah. Wh what experience are you but promising to deliver on here. I got questions.
So what do they mean broader challenges? Are they mad at because Trump? I mean, the secretary this of the Treasury is gay. Do you think Scott Besson would ever go to a gay day? No, you know why?
Because. That's cringe. It's cringe. It's like tightrolling your pants in 2026. Stop it.
It's just I don't know.
Okay, speaking of the gay days. Um really quickly. Oh, where's this at? Where's this at? Where's this at?
Oh, oh. There's this, apparently. Oh my gosh, I gotta find this. I think I may have lost it. It it's like a new monkey pox.
that's out there. Uh okay, yeah, based on health reports in the CDC, there is a Try Oh, fightin menta grophytes geno whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So apparently Minnesota is in the midst of what state health officials are saying is their largest known outbreak of this sexually transmitted fungal skin infection that can cause severe ringworm. And apparently This is what it is defined as is more commonly reported in men who are intimate with other men due to skin-to-skin transmission during intimate contact. Oh. So stop being whores. Really simple.
I mean, that's like pretty easy to solve, you know? I mean Um I'm curious if it's Hmm. It's associated with dudes. I didn't realize Minnesota was like a haven. Mm-hmm.
You know, I'm kind of surprised to see it there. I wonder what the overlay with the Somali diaspora that's been defrauding everybody is. I'm just saying, I'm just asking a question, you know, I'm just exploring some options. Thanks for tuning in to today's edition of Dana Lash's Absurd Truth Podcast.
