Where to next? Hezbollah and they agreed to stop shooting at Israel and its soldiers. Likewise, Israel agreed to stop shooting at them. Let's see how long that lasts. Hopefully it will be for eternity.
Axios reports the call between Trump and Netanyahu was tense. This is a piece of the outlet posting yesterday, quote, summarizing Trump's remarks to Netanyahu, the U.S. officials said, You're effing crazy. You'd be in prison if it weren't for me. I'm saving your A.
Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this. A second source briefed on the call said Trump was, quote, pissed and at one point yelled at Netanyahu, What the F are you doing?
Now, at this moment, Israeli troops remain in southern Lebanon. Overnight, there were a few sirens across northern Israel from Hezbollah rocket and drone attacks, as well as a small number of Israeli strikes in Lebanon. Civilians in the Lebanese capital of Beirut are breathing a sigh of relief following evacuation orders that were issued by the Israeli military on Monday. We were certainly happy about U.S. President Trump's intervention.
We were glad that a ceasefire was reached and that people got some relief from the displacement, suffering, and difficult conditions they have been living through. It's truly heartbreaking. We are a people. We are human beings. We are not enemies of anyone, and we do not want war.
We were very happy when we heard that Trump had become involved in the issue. Um More than 3,400 people have been killed in Lebanon since the war restarted again earlier this year. We do know talks are taking place this week between the Lebanese and Israeli governments aimed at reaching a deal to normalize ties and disarm Hezbollah.
So, this is how it starts. And I want to set this up for you guys. I wrote about this last night.
So, if you are a subscriber, You have all of this. I mean, you know, some the latest developments, because this is the story that broke. yesterday and I say Story, I use that very loosely. And I use it loosely because when you talk about stories, you talk about things that are properly sourced. Things that usually end up being true, right?
So the story is that. Trump was on the phone with Netanyahu and was all, whoa, you're blanking crazy. How are you doing? What is the matter with you? You'd be in prison if it wasn't for me and a bunch of other goofy nonsense.
And so. The problem is that Like, who said it? Like, who's the. Who is the source? Right?
What do you mean what's the source for this? Secondly, the other issue is that the guys who wrote this story. They do this like every couple of months. They're notorious for doing this every couple of months. If you, I, I, for those who are over at Substack, I actually linked.
The Well, I had a screenshot of one of their previous headlines on this because this is what they do every single time. They it's the latest in the whole. Trump and Netanyahu are breaking up soga. And they did this.
So, Trump and all the headlines that you've ever heard, Trump and Netanyahu argued, or Trump and it's all from the same guy. That's like, this is the only stuff that he writes, right? It's the only, it's like, these are the, it's like the only type of story that he writes. And so, I don't really take it very seriously because all of the other stuff that he's written never nothing ever came of it. And if it wasn't disproven, then nothing ever came of it.
So I have a hard time. When the hell did we start believing every single syllable? that came out of the legacy press. I know that podcastistan are a bunch of talentless cable rejects, desperate whores that would love nothing more than to believe all of this because it. It goes along with their their narrative, right?
That's their whole narrative. But The truth is that nothing literally ever happened with all of the other headlines that they had from this.
So, I don't take it seriously. I don't take any of this seriously. Do you take it seriously? I don't. Welcome to the radio program.
Dana Lash with you. Uh So much to get into because we also have the latest. In with the Grand Platiners. Oh my gosh, the Demreich. What do I call Demreich?
I mean, they're all the left. The The multiple, the right and left, right, right? What do I, how is that accurate? I'm confusing myself. The right and left, right?
I don't know. Thoughts, Kane, any suggestions? We're going to have to have chat naming or something like that. It's trying to make sense of absurdity, and it's a futile attempt. It is.
It is very futile.
So this, the latest with us, again, if you are Get the sub stack. over at uh chapter chapter and verse. Trumpet said, I had a conversation with Bibi Netanyahu today, asking him to not go into a major raid in Beirut, Lebanon. He turned his troops around, thank you, Beebe, blah, blah, blah. I talked to Hezbollah.
They agreed to stop shooting at Israel.
So. Like I said. Every couple of months, Axios runs this, you know, Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu. They're breaking up. Oh my gosh.
Whoa. And It's there this the headlines are never true. None of it's ever true It all comes from the same dippy leftist reporters. And it fuels a couple of new cycles. But All it is is, is they just, it gives, you know, the podcast to stay and pod people like a little bit more fodder for their, it's to Jews, fever dream.
So, the one that they had, the last one, he's a madman. Trump's team frets about Netanyahu after serious strikes. He's a madman. I mean, it's always literally like the same headlines over and over again. And it takes two people to write this.
Nonsense, by the way. But it's it's All the same stuff. And so Trump also asked him what the expletive he's doing. Over the Lebanon, bobbing. You're crazy.
You'd be in prison if it wasn't for me. I'm saving your A-double snakes. Everybody hates, you know, everybody hates Israel because of this. I don't believe any of that. I don't believe a singular syllable.
Trump needs to actually have to come out and be like, no, I literally typed this with my. giant hands on my phone. He would literally have to come out and say that because I don't believe that's not even doesn't even sound like how he talks. I linked to you the archive story in Substack because I'm not doing the stupid fruity paywall that's dumb. I'm not doing paywall for stupid propaganda.
So here's, let's rewind for a minute. Why are we in this position? Because Hezbollah, who are a group of inbred goat fornicators who live in southern Lebanon, here's the basic geography: you have Israel, you have on one side, you know, you've got. The Mediterranean, to the north, you have Lebanon, to the south, you have Egypt. And so Hezbollah, excuse me, that's the group of.
Regime, Iranian regime. terror toadies to the north, right? Lebanon's government doesn't even like them. Lebanon is a very sectarian type government.
So it's like the United Colors of Bennetton. They've got Christians, they've got Druze, they've got Jews, they've got probably Zoroastrians, they, I mean, Arabs, they've got everybody up there, right? It's a grab bag of Middle Eastern religiosity. And so Hezbollah, they are Basically, like mercenaries for hire from the potentially debt from stumpy comedy. You guys remember Stumpy Hominy, right?
Stumpy hominy is the potentially dead, burnt One-legged Gay super Sharia priest for Iran's Shia Islam. He is all those things, potentially dead, also being one of them. I mean, he's, you know, very likely dead. I don't know. Or maybe he's not.
I don't know. Who knows? He's probably getting his hundred male virgins in heaven. They're heaven anyway.
So, Hezbollah, being that they are remedial products of Incest cannot stop themselves from relentlessly bombing their neighbor to the south. And so, whenever they do that, Israel responds to wipe out their munitions and hopefully kill some Terris on top of it, right?
So the Potentially dead, burnt, one-legged super priest, and his equally crusty Shia toadies, they are super upset. whenever this happens. They're not pupset because Hezbollah fired rockets indiscriminately. They're pup set because Hezbollah was fired upon in return in defense, self defense by Israel.
So And that's just unacceptable because everybody knows that good neighbors allow their Stone Age barbaric squatters that live next door to bomb the ever-loving hell out of them and kill everyone in their family because that's just good hospitality, guys. That's good hospitality. And so, The negotiation even to get to the stupid ceasefire. Negotiation, yeah. The negotiation to get to the negotiation, it's being bait and switched with Lebanon's inclusion.
So, and I've written about this endlessly.
So, how did Lebanon get involved in this?
Well, let's again, once again, let's walk back. Let's go over to the old weasels in Pakistan who inserted themselves at no one's invitation into the negotiations, right? And b we all know why they did that. If there's one thing that Pakistan is really known for beyond their amazing contributions to architecture oh, I'm sorry, Candace Stands, architecture, Science and technology, it's their harboring of terrorists like Osama bin Laden and also the art of negotiation. Which I'm completely kidding, only the bin Laden one's true, right?
So they have no amazing contributions to anything else.
So, Pakistan, at Iran's behest, They snuck in this reference to Hezbollah. In a statement that Iran released, that the United States did not see, the United States had no part in crafting, and they stated that Lebanon was also party to the ceasefire. Lebanon was like, whiskey tango foxtrot, what are you talking about? Lebanon's own leadership was like, that ain't true. Because they hate Hezbollah too.
They're like that. They disputed this publicly, as did the White House, but that did not stop the made-up narrative. Pakistan caused problems on purpose. And they included Lebanon because that's where Hezbollah is headquartered. And they wanted Hezbollah to be able to fire at Israel.
They didn't want Israel. They don't want Israel to be able to return fire, right? They wanted to make it seem like Israel was firing at. Lebanon specifically, and not Hezbollah. They were trying to make it like Israel's just bombing specifically children and dogs, puppies, kittens in Lebanon.
So Everybody hates Hezbollah except Stumpy Hominy, who may be dead and is burnt, one-legged, and super gay.
So, just a quick sidebar, too. I'm sure that if your neighbor started firing rockets indiscriminately into your property. I'm sure you would do something to stop them too. Or I don't know, maybe you just don't believe in the right of self-defense. Would you stop people if they were bombing your property?
Yes, I think everybody would. Except this changes because we've turned Arabs into a protected class.
So Islamists can do whatever the hell they want. But oh my goodness, if you do something to Islamists in return, that's a big, bad no-no. And you're going to make that potentially super gay, super gay, dead, possibly burnt, one-legged homini over there. You're going to make him super pupset, right? He's going to like really be pinky out, upset with you.
So The um Decimated military leadership that Iran has, and again, it's dead, or maybe living, burnt, one-legged, gay, super-Shia Imam. They're left with using these ragamuffin groups like the Houthis out in the Red Sea, which are basically an outfit from Star Wars. And they're the ones who walk in single file to hide their numbers. And they continue their terror campaign. They want to exude maximum pressure.
Exert maximum pressure on opponents who are much bigger, much more prepared, by the way, and have a greater capability of ending their entire existence. But they're told no by flaccid Eurotrash. Who can't protect their own women and children from being raped Islamist conveyor belt style in their own hometowns?
So, the whole entire reason this after-school special persists, ladies and gentlemen, is because entitled countries that subsist on fumes and tourists who traipse around their crumbling architecture during summer vacation, whose defense is entirely underwritten by the United States of America, would rather protect the aggressor than speak one syllable. of defense for the oppressed, the real oppressed. And I'm not talking about the colonizers that were expelled from Jordan, whose made up ancestry is entirely predicated upon a punitive renaming authored by a long dead Roman emperor, right?
So, Iran wants to run out the clock all the way to midterms this fall. It's a quasi-war of attrition. I said this yesterday. The goal is to wear down support for the United States and the court of public opinion. And they're leveraging the brain trust and dopey podcasts to stand as another pressure point to influence people's perception.
So, here's the bottom line: you either believe in the right of self-defense or you don't. There is no gray area here.
So we got a lot more to get into because we got to talk about the left's Nazi. We got to get into this trans ruling from an appeals court. Wait until you hear about this. All kinds of stuff that we have to hit still. We got headlines on the way.

So We talked about the pulte headline. This is a weird one. Can hackers pull your fingerprints from photos on social media?
Now apparently, the word is that they can.
So don't hold up your fingers to do the peace sign. Seriously? I don't do that anyway, but they say that hackers can extract fingerprints from photo subjects, flashing P signs online, and enhance them using artificial intelligence.
Someone said end AI already. That's. I mean, I'm not surprised. You gotta be careful what you share. People overshare everything, but I would not have thought about that one.
Not that. We're gonna talk about this one coming up. Bernie Sanders proposes to seize half ownership of large AI firms. That's literally communism. Where is it in the enumerated powers that the United States government can seize businesses?
Where? Like I said, we're going to discuss it. Honey lovers are being warned over a nationwide shortage after a health craze creates a major demand. Bees have been. Do you think bees have been targeted, Kane?
I like bees. I love bees. Yeah, no, we all love bees, and we know how important they are to our ecosystem. And I think that we've seen over the past year and a half, two years, we've seen trucks overturned on the highway that were carrying bees. We've seen the destruction of beehives.
We've seen people stealing bees from places and destroying even the acreage that these bees get their pollen from. It's all been happening for the last few years. We've been seeing it and reporting on it here on the show. I think this is also part of the result of this shortage they're talking about with honey. They said that apparently.
116 million pounds of honey were produced in the U.S. last year, down 14% from 2024.
So it's the lowest amount the U.S. has ever produced since they began record keeping in 1939.
So, wow, that's pretty bad. Let's see, Google. Oh, no, wait, no, no, no. Yeah, Google related.
So, Google wants to release why 32 million infected mosquitoes into the wild. What? That's what they want to do. It's, yeah, they said it's a new vision behind a public health initiative. I don't know, it's in California and Florida.
They're seeking federal approval to breed and release swarms of mosquitoes that carry an infection harmless to humans. They're trying to go after West Nile virus and a whole bunch of other stuff as well. But they said that only female mosquitoes spread the viruses when they fight an infected animal infected. Males only nibble on plant nectar, so they want to tinker with the DNA and spray streets. Or instead of rather do that, they want to infect them with the parasitic bacteria that I can't pronounce.
Volbachia. I don't know. Uh, and have it, have it. I don't know, man. This is how bad stuff happens with that, right?
And then, of course, you can get a share of Google's $135 million settlement. I'm sure it'll give you like $2 because everybody's going to be going for this thing. Running short here, but we got Bridget Fadesy who's going to be joining us next. Stick with us. And we all need relief.

Dana Lash with you. We're at the bottom now of this. Glorious! First hour. I almost wanted to say second, and I have no idea why, but here we are.
So we. We were diving into that phone call. That Axios was insisting took place. And it sounds totally believable, right? The only part that I questioned was when Trump said no cap.
And I'm like, would he really say that though? And then he was like, dead ass, baby. And I'm like, I don't know. That was in the transcript. Yeah, you didn't see that part because that was, you have to turn it over.
It's printed on the other side. I didn't see. I didn't do that. You know, that's just a common thing. You know, nobody prints on both sides of the paper because they just think it's like gauche.
So. You know, they think it's bougier to have like multiple. Anyway, no cap. Yeah, no cap for real, yo.
So I mean, you can believe it if you want to. I just have a big. Problem with believing anything that I read in the legacy press, like at all. And specifically, things that come from certain journalists because they're just full of it. I just don't.
I just don't believe them and I can't help it. I just said, you're not going to make me. People are like, is this the summary, or is that like an actual quotes? Apparently, it's supposed to be like a summary of the content of the call. If you want to believe that, and everybody's making a big deal about it while podcasts to Stan all just happen simultaneously to be going to Brussia all at the same time, but that's okay.
So And it had to do with Iran threatening to abandon negotiations because Israel. Hit Hezbollah and Hezbollah is squatting in southern Lebanon.
Now, my Response to Iran would be: get your burnt, one-legged, gay Shia Imam and have him deal with Hezbollah and make Hezbollah stop firing rockets at people. Or no cap, we're going to go and drag out everybody by the hair on their head. And we're just going to like Vlad drag cool them in the public square. Your choice. That would have been my response.
Actually, it wouldn't have even gotten that far because this would have been over forever ago. But That's the thing.
So They're upset. Iran is needs Hezbollah. to Keep attacking Israel. And that's the whole reason why they are insisting that Lebanon be included in all of this. And Lebanon's like, we are not part of this, and we also don't like Hezbollah.
The uh I just am super, I just question this whole story. Because The It's like the latest installment in a series of these.
Now, the Israelis deny that the call got that profane, but they said the conversation was tense and it was not one call, it was two. And Apparently There was some objection over the way that the first conversation was being portrayed.
So, this pulling this up, a couple of different reports. They said it was two calls that took place between them on Monday night, one at 7 p.m. and then one close to midnight, which was the tense one, the more tense one, rather. Apparently, POTUS wrote on Truth Social after the first call that the IDF would not attack Beirut and Israel and Hezbollah would refrain from attacking each other. Hezbollah is never going to do that.
Netanyahu said that he would carry out his previous plans to strike Beirut if Hezbollah did not stop attacking Israel. That's totally understandable, right? If your neighbor. Keeps shooting rockets into your property. You're going to tell them to stop, or you're going to do something, correct?
Right. No. No thinking person is going to say otherwise.
So then the second phone call was on the mute was about the mutual complaints by both leaders regarding the respective readouts of the first call.
So Israel was objecting to the readout from the first call, the way that the first call was characterized. And apparently, Uh Netanyahu was frustrated that Trump's post implied that Israel had ceased fire on every front. But they said that there was never any profanity and there was never anybody being personally attacked or talking about going to prison, which I would agree with. That doesn't. The way that it was stated does not sound like how Trump would talk.
And we all know how Trump talks, right? You can tell when it's him, it's pretty obvious. And so they said that. The conversation ended with understandings, according to which Israel would refrain from carrying out the postponed strike in Beirut, provided that it is not attacked within its own territory. That makes all the sense in the world.
The Basically, it sounds like the official that was the act, the, well, not the accusation, the implied accusation, I should say. seems more like the official, the US official was was Being a little partisan and not really just straight transcription, if that makes sense. And I think that The way that you're, the way that you read the Axios piece. It's kind of difficult for the podcast to stand people to deal with it because their whole argument is that Israel controls. the United States, which is literally one of the stupidest most low IQ arguments I've ever heard in my ever loving life.
And that's why this story is even more problematic for those people because clearly the US is the one calling the shots from this readout.
Now, here's where, Kane, can I borrow a piece of tinfoil? Sure.
So here's where I start looking at it. in a kind of a different light. Is that the Point though, because they have a good alliance, U.S. and Israel. Could it be to help?
The negotiations that it looks like Israel is under control by the United States, and the United States is really like, I mean, it could, there's a lot of things at play here. You have to realize the subterfuge that goes on while everyone's reading the top headline, nobody's reading between the lines.
So Trump posted a truth social, I read that. As we started the show, I had a conversation with Bibi Nanyahu asking him not to go into Beirut. He turned his troops around.
So that was just a hand, that was just like a couple of hours after his. First call with Netanyahu. And he credited Netanyahu with ceasing fire, and he credited Netanyahu for Hezbollah agreeing to it. And then it didn't last very long because Hezbollah just fired two more rockets after that. Hezbollah fired two more rockets.
In Western Galilee. And there were no injuries in either incident.
So Israel responded.
So, this is what Hamas does, this is what Hezbollah does. They have zero. There's never any attempt to negotiate anything in good faith.
So they say, sure, we'll cease, and then they fire rockets, and then when Israel responds, they act like Israel's the one that breached the ceasefire, which has never been the case in the entire history of this area.
So I'm just curious. Who's leaking to this in the White House?
Someone in the White House is laking this stuff out. Who is it? Because it's compromising national security. I volunteered to take care of the person. who's leaking.
Just put him in a room with me for a little bit. The wonderful It's my birthday next year, you know. Christmas is coming up in six months. What? You said it's my birthday next year.
Oh, yeah.
Well, like later this year.
Sorry. Christmas is coming up in six months. It would be an amazing gift to me. If we could allow this for this to happen. You can't believe everything that you see on this.
You cannot believe everything that you read on this. This is what's so, it's just, this is what's so asinine.
Okay, I gotta switch it up because. Do you feel comfortable, let me ask you this question. It's kind of a weird one. Roll with me. Do you feel comfortable?
flying in an airplane. If the airline doesn't know the difference between men and women.
So think about this. If the airline Does not know the difference between men and women. Do you think that they can properly fly a plane? Because Knowing the difference between men or women is Pretty easy.
So, Delta Airlines is referring to mothers and fathers and their career benefits policy as quote birthing parents and non-birthing parents.
So Benefits and perks to help keep you climbing. And then it says, At 10 paid holidays per calendar year, birthing parents are eligible for 12 weeks of paid maternity parental leave. Non-birthing parents are eligible for 2 weeks of paid parental leave.
Okay. What? Why don't you just say men and women? Mothers and fathers. The people that are so I have people who say that I that were in the comments of the Delta thing saying, Well, you know, if you physically give birth, you need time to heal, which you don't need.
You know, if you're, you know, like fathers don't need as much time. Are you really that stupid? I'm sorry. That's I'm not sorry, actually. That's really stupid.
You should be apologizing to me because it's so dumb. Um They also, by the way, are uh Aren't they like the big supporters of like the trans stuff too over at Delta? I don't know. I'm just trying to figure out how in the world that's confusing to them. Why do you have to use this stupid progressive language?
Why do you have to use? The Lewis Carroll made-up language of the modern era. It's like the Jabberwockie, but with this stuff.
Well, if you're a birthing person, birthing parents, you mean like moms. Or dads. Why is that word so offensive? Where are all of the crusty old feminists, those people that have shriveled up to desiccated skin tag level, like the glorious Steinems of the world? These women that prostituted themselves on the back of a movement they just fomented as a way to create division in the American family so they could make a buck off it.
Where are these dumb broads at? To speak up. You're literally erasing motherhood. Men can't do that. Women can.
And now women aren't allowed to claim it. Because a man who wants to pretend to be a woman is gonna get upset over it. Where are the Linda Hirschmans? Where are these dumb bitches that went out here and made a cottage industry and snowed a generation of women into believing this claptrap? Where are these broads at now?
You're erasing. Women. If the word mother offends you, choke to death. I don't care. We're not gonna ask men.
Do you realize how unbelievably sexist this is? How many times do I have to tell people? Feminists are created by progressive men. Progressive men. who have no worthiness.
who have no idea how to treat women. Who look at women as things to be erased like this? Who demand to be on our sports teams, who demand a change in our locker rooms. I told you the story of a family member. of mine at a high school in Missouri.
Who was told by the school administration that they had a change, this was like four years ago, they had a change in a bathroom with an 18-year-old male who was 6'2. Wanted to change in the girls' locker room. They made a big deal out of it. It was all on the news in St. Louis.
All the girls were changing in the hallway bathroom because they were, that is a, it's vulnerable when you're in a room of girls. Golly, can you imagine being in a room with an 18-year-old boy who is a legal adult at that point? And he's in a room with girls who are minors. Who are changing? Did did anyone at that and it was a school district in Jefferson County, did any of the genius brain trust at that school stop for a second and realize the legal liability they were assuming just from that scenario alone?
This is the stuff I'm talking about. Not a single damn feminist, any other time. If you took this back in the 60s, these women would have been out in the streets. But they made their money off of all of these, all of these other. women So now what Gloria Steinem's got A mansion in, like, what is it?
It's like going to the toniest parts of Manhattan. Doesn't she have a place out in Montecito too? She afforded two mansions on that grift. Where are they at now for women?
Nowhere. This stuff, it just makes me not want to do any business with you at all whatsoever. I don't want to flight Delta. If you can't figure this out, how the hell are you going to sit here and read flight instruments? How are you going to fly a plane if you can't figure out something this simple?
Goodness.
So coming up. We've got it's Rainbow All the Things. I have a piece that's going to be coming out in the Washington Times where it's Rainbow Overload, the pride everything. Did you see all the sports teams doing the Lamb's Blood on the Door? By claiming that, oh, it's Pride Month.
Like, everybody has to get in on it. There was a golf, like some random golf club, like a country club, not like an actual golf club manufacturer, that posted about it. Baseball teams posted about it. Major League Baseball posted about it. Then you have all of the companies that are repackaging all of their stuff.
Let's not forget, Listerine literally had like the. The pride mouthwash. There was the, you know, Vaseline, the like their lip balm. They had a gay pride lip balm. Why?
Oh boy. Marks and Spencer had a sandwich, literally a gay sandwich. Lettuce, guacamole, bacon, and tomato, LGBT. I kid you not.
Okay. Do they like check to see if you're straight before allowing you to purchase this? You're gay, prove it. Blow that guy. I mean seriously.
Well, I mean that's how stupid this is.
So, we're going to talk about all of this coming up. We're also going to get into Days of These United States, and we have some really good guests today as we move. Again, I'm not Dor the Explorer. I ain't babysitting your kids because we're going to talk about guns and knives and all kinds of crazy stuff. All right, as we move, our partners that will bring you the program, it's our friends over at Ghostbed.
If you haven't gotten this mattress, go ahead and sleep on your trash pile that you currently call a mattress because that's what it is. Go crack fox it up on your trash pile because that's exactly if you're not sleeping on a ghost bed, you might as well be homeless. I'm not joking. You might as well be homeless. It's just the best mattress that's made out there.
And I'm not just saying that because it's my mattress. I'm saying it because it legitimately is.
So, first off, mattresses, you're not supposed to wake up tossing and turning uncomfortable. If you are, that's not you. That's your hobo mattress. I don't care how ritzy or bougie you think it is. If you're tossing and turning, it's neither of those things.

Ghostbeds customers, though, this is literally like what they're made for. They have cooling tech built into every mattress. It's not just some expensive upgrade that you have to pay extra for either. It's just, you know, how they make the mattress.
And they make it like it's a piece of health equipment. You're supposed to rest, relax, and be restored as you sleep. And so, that's the whole purpose of Ghostbed's mattress. That's what it does: it's a piece of health equipment that makes sure that you wake up rested.

It's time for Florida Man. This story makes me mad because I have a personal affinity for this establishment. A Florida man apparently followed through on a threat to cut the power to a Taco Bell because the staff asked him to leave for violating the store's dress code. It ended up being a video that was posted to X. Apparently, the man was inside the restaurant.
He was shirtless and wearing a kilt. And staff said, you have to wear a shirt. And he was also apparently loud and obnoxious. And the situation escalated because he refused to leave. He said he was an electrician and he was going to go shut off power to the building.
Customers challenged his claim. One person defended the staff. The guy walked out, slammed the door, and then apparently a customer who was still filming got the moment that the power went out. And at the time, I mean, they could not prove in the video that he was responsible for the outage, but I don't know.
So, yeah, he. Yeah, all they said was you need to just put a shirt on, and he didn't want to do it.
So, anyway, apparently, what happened to him? The story just walks into the abyss.
Well, he like yelled at a few people. And if you watch the video, you see him walk out, and then he walks down the side of the building, and then like five seconds later, all the people. I think he did something. I just, that's too coincidental.
So, yeah. And then a Florida man was arrested outside of a taco bowl with no pants, and a fish named Baja Blast.
Well, Taco Bell. I'm gonna have to save this one for tomorrow and come back to it. But I mean, I'm still gonna go to Taco Bell because I enjoy it. I'm not gonna take any heat about it either. Stick with us third hour on the way.

So, this is what if you're watching on the simulcast. You're watching some dudes coming out of literally a street. They are coming out of the sewer through the manhole in New York City. This was in Brooklyn a few nights ago. And they were carrying tools and gear.
And my first thought was, teenage mutants are turtles. First thought, no cap. I'm gonna make that word just die, that phrase die. And the other thing, the cars are just like there. They're just sitting there.
Like, what did we just witness? They come out with gear, and there's more of them still coming out. This guy almost gets, and that guy almost got his shovel ran over by the car. Look at that. Shovel.
He's got a shovel up.
Now... I'm I've got questions. None of them have like high-viz stuff on. They don't have any gear on. Is this drop?
Like, I don't know. And it's like a clown car of sewer systems. One guy's got a headlamp on. gets out. I mean how many more dudes are coming out of here?
Ghostbusters. There's another one. Ghostbusters? Is this Ghostbusters? This is like if you step on a spider and it's pregnant and all the babies come running out.
This is the same thing. That was a really disgusting visual, but there you have it. All I know is I feel like. Extra tunnels are being dug under the city. Do is it a is it Ghostbusters?
I have no idea. Are they teenies meeting into turtles with other cells? I think All of those explanations are way more natural. Are they terrorists? Are they drug cartels?
Are they illegal aliens? Where'd they come from? Why don't we know who they are? Because this happens. And the police are like, we don't know what's happening, but oh my gosh, if you sell a loose cigarette on the street in New York, they're going to send like 10 guys to come and beat you to death on the sidewalk in broad daylight.
That's, yeah, you don't even go to jail. Go right to the morgue. Go to the morgue right away. Second hour on the way. Stick with us.
All right, kids. If you have ever fought with a garden hose, and you know exactly what I'm talking about, like the kinks and the tangles, and sometimes it looks bad after a year, and the whole thing turns into a rubber knot the second that you need it. A lot of people replace their hoses like every couple of years. It's like, it's a springtime tradition for some folks. But now there is the world's number one expanding garden hose.
It's called the pocket hose, and it really is that small. And they have their new pocket hose ballistic. This thing is tough. It's reinforced. I don't even know what this is.
Liquid crystal polymer. It's like the same thing that they use in bulletproof vests, which means it can handle your household, can probably even handle terrorists. This thing actually stretches out so ungodly long. This thing goes up to 25 feet. And then you turn on the water, it expands to the full-size hose.
But look, look how little it is, and it's very lightweight. You know, you turn the water off, it shrinks right back down. To twee size, pocket size, so you're not wrestling this giant hose back into the garage. I know there's a million jokes to be made here, but the point is, is that their new ballistic version is even better because it has five times stronger than steel fiber, and it has this like little Pocket pivot. That's what this thing is.
It's like 360 degrees pocket pivot.
So there's no kinking, no tangled mess. And now it's also upgraded with a UV coating so it doesn't look like absolute hot garbage after summer. And it has even thicker washers to help resist leaks.
So for a limited time, you can get the pocket hose ballistic. Ballistic. With a free 360-degree pocket pivot. That's what this thing is. It's the pocket pivot.
And you also get a thumb drive nozzle. All you have to do is text Dana to 643000. 64000.
So that's text Dana to 64000 and get not one. But two free gifts, your ballistic pocket hose. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So apparently, random standard Wi-Fi routers can scan your body to identify exactly who you are, according to alarming new research. How can they do that?
So, if you were paranoid about digital tracking before, you're going to love this story. It's new research out of Germany's Karlstrug Institute of Technology. And they found that types of Wi-Fi routers that come in everybody's houses have a major privacy vulnerability that can be used to identify any human body that comes within their range. Ismodo first heard about her, uh, first reported it. The accuracy is 99.5%.
It's beamforming, feedback, information, BFI. That was introduced to allow routers to focus Wi-Fi signals on connected devices as opposed to the older approach, which was to blanket an entire area in coverage.
So it's great for network connectivity, but It has to send constant feedback in order to be found. And that's like affected by like pets and wolves and people and all of that stuff.
So creepy. Roller coaster riders, another one. Got rescued because the train got stuck on top of the hill. They were literally leaning back. They were, so imagine you're laying on your back with your legs in the air.
That's the position they were in. Eight of them, they were stranded. It was in Texas. It stopped at a 100-foot vertical lift. And it was the Iron Shark coaster at Pleasure Pier in Galveston, and it came right to a halt.
They had to evacuate everybody one by one. There were no injuries. That looks terrifying, actually, the awkward way that they're stuck there. I'm saying. A driver of an SUV crashed through a wall at an Everett medical clinic.
Now. This is in Washington. They never said whether or not it was a man or a woman.
So Kane's like, that's a woman. And I'm inclined to agree. I'm just saying, I watched a woman run over a curb. The other day. Run over a curb, like ran right over it.
Just I don't know.
So, yeah, crashed right through. They looked, they're investigating the cause of the crash to see if the driver was impaired beyond being a woman. Coming up, Batya Ungar Sargon joins us. She has a new book out, and also we're going to talk about Grant Plattner. Woohoo!
