Dana Lash’s Absurd Truth Podcast, sponsored by Kel-Tec.
SPEAKER 10 :
It’s his life mission to make bad decisions. It’s time for Florida Man.
SPEAKER 03 :
All right. So first up, some of these are so inappropriate. It’s ridiculous. Let’s start. Well, I got one that was for just regular thefts and then I got a guy who stole a cross. I just feel like that’s, if you do that, you’re going to get in trouble. With the Lord. Just feels like. A guy stole a giant cross from a Pensacola church and he was caught with it at a Tennessee motel in Sumner County. It was early December. He got caught with it Wednesday night at a Tennessee motel. Jacob Vanderberg, 31, is facing charges of theft, trespassing, and robbery. He stole it from the St. Paul Catholic Church on Hyde Road. And he said that he was just looking for Jesus. Put the big old cross in his van and took off. And they found him at a Country Inn motel. And they were able to get it back to the church. The church was looking for it. It came off the front of the church. So it wasn’t like a little necklace. It was a big old cross. Of all the things to steal, why? Like, why that one? I don’t know. A Lakeland man was arrested for being a pervert at a playground. Golly. And he looks like one, too. Polk County Sheriff’s Office, they arrested this 56-year-old freak in Lakeland. He… Was that a park having self-time? And you shouldn’t have been. It was bad. Intimate self-time. I don’t know how else to say it. And in front of full view of kids. And he has two previous convictions for doing the same thing. He was arrested. He’s being held in $10,000 bond. Um, third degree felony because he goes to where kids are and does this. What is the argument against just, you know, taking them off of this plane? Where’s the argument against that? I don’t see any good ones. Uh, so he’s going to be, if they don’t, if they don’t do something about this guy, this guy’s going to molest the kid if he hasn’t already. Honestly, this, uh, South Florida man was accused of calling in a bomb threat to the police department. That’s a great way to get yourself arrested. He called and hung up at 8.42 in the morning. There’s a bomb in your parking lot. They had shut down the whole block, cordoned off for the day, closed the parking garage, evacuated police headquarters. They found no hazards, nothing, and then they reopened everything later that day. They found him, though, in Palm Beach County. He called from a medical facility. They detained him and they booked him in Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office. I just want to know why you would do that. Did he want to go to jail? Because it’s a great way to go to jail. If you want to go to jail, call in a bomb threat to the police. They’ll totally take you to jail. Let’s see here. This… We’ve got… Oh, yeah, there’s this one. This is wild. This is a sad story. A neighbor was taking on his Christmas lights and he found he spotted as he was taking his Christmas lights down a body in the pond by his house in a retention pond. That’s so sad. Bradley Sugar, 48, was reported missing January 7th, found dead January 12th, according to Collier County Sheriff’s Office. His mother reported him missing. She said that she got a frantic call from him. He sounded out of breath, but he said he was out of medication. His house was in disarray. They couldn’t find him. Five days later, neighbors taking out Christmas lights. finds him floating in the retention pond. So they think that they’re just trying to figure out what happened to him. I mean, good heavens. It’s just so sad, incredibly sad. A Florida driver whose blood, his alcohol levels, his blood alcohol limit were six times the legal limit. Good night. He was found with tons of, a dozen empty wine bottles strewn across the floor of his car. His blood alcohol content was over six times the legal limits
SPEAKER 10 :
Wait a minute. If 0.08 is the limit, six times that is 0.48, which is almost half?
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 10 :
So half your blood is alcohol? Wow.
SPEAKER 03 :
Wow. The Haines City Police got a 911 call about an unresponsive driver. And they found him, Miguel Rodriguez, unconscious behind the wheel, car in gear, engine running, foot on the brake. So they parked their patrol car in front of his so he wouldn’t lurch into traffic. They couldn’t wake him up. They had to break the passenger side window because he had it locked to put the car in park and remove the keys. That’s when they found 12 opened and totally consumed bottles of wine. And he was like drifting in and out of consciousness. They took him to the hospital. Yeah, that’s where he had. More than that. .523, Cain. What?
SPEAKER 10 :
How do you survive? That’s God’s work. That’s insane. Just the idea of you surviving is God’s work.
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, my gosh. That’s insane. So he faces one count of DUI. Our partners that help bring you the program, it’s our friends over at Caltech. Fabulous. Florida-based company. Caltech makes some really cool stuff. And they’ve, you know, the P-11, the P-32 changed the way we carry concealed. They invented the micro compact pistol category. They also have their high performance KSG shotguns, the super accurate bullpup performance of the RDB series, the full and half carbine family of sub 2Ks, the P-50s. The P15, the lightest, thinnest double stack 9mm on the market. Now we’re heading into the end of January and this is usually when Caltech unveils the latest firearms that they’ve invented, that they’ve come up with. Things you’ve never seen before and this is not going to be an exception this year. So they’re going to have more stuff, new stuff that they’re going to be announcing at the end of this month.

SPEAKER 03 :
You’re telling me I did not miss a Democrat actually asking a question about warfighting?
SPEAKER 10 :
I actually have audio from Crazy Hirono.
SPEAKER 03 :
She just recently… Did she ask a question about warfighting?
SPEAKER 10 :
Ooh, we can hear it and you can… You can’t… Really? You can determine if that’s what she was asking about.
SPEAKER 03 :
All right, go ahead. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 10 :
Go ahead.
SPEAKER 03 :
Play this.
SPEAKER 10 :
Play this nightmare.
SPEAKER 04 :
As Secretary of Defense, you will swear an oath to the Constitution and not an oath to any man, woman, or president. Correct.
SPEAKER 06 :
Senator, on multiple occasions, including as a young second lieutenant, I have sworn an oath to the Constitution and I’m proud to do so. Yes, ma’am.
SPEAKER 04 :
In June of 2020, then President Trump directed former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper to shoot protesters in the legs in downtown D.C., an order Secretary Esper refused to comply with. Would you carry out such an order from President Trump?
SPEAKER 06 :
Senator, I was in the Washington, D.C. National Guard unit that was in Lafayette Square during those events. Would you carry out an order to shoot protesters in the legs? I saw 50 Secret Service agents get injured by rioters trying to jump over the fence, set the church on fire, and destroy the statue.
SPEAKER 04 :
You know what, that sounds to me that you will comply with such an order. You will shoot protesters in the leg.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay. Oh, my gosh. First off, dear God, please put a hand over my mouth because I’m not going to be able to get to the show without Steve burning through the dump button. It’s just not going to happen today. I am so… This is how the question’s going. And by the way, if you’re just joining us, welcome. Dana Lash, top of the first hour. These are how the questions are going. So if Donald Trump told you to go and shoot baby puppy dogs in the head, would you go do that? Would you take out that order? Like, what’s the context here? Yeah. Like, are they vicious baby puppy dogs? Are they mutants? Are they rabid? Do they pose a threat? Yeah, like, what’s the context here to your crazy-ass question, you crazy-ass woman? What is the context here? So if Trump asks you to eat… The world’s hottest pepper. Would you do it? I mean, like, these are how stupid these questions are. Would you eat a ghost pepper for Trump? Would you eat a ghost pepper for Trump? I just can’t even take it seriously. If I don’t laugh at it, I’m going to scream. So you will. You will indulge me. These are how their questions are going. And then what was… There were like three. Oh, gosh, I’m trying to think who is the other. Oh, I don’t know. Old white and Democrat. That’s like the whole party. I could, you know, with a posture of a cocktail shrimp, that’s still the whole party. Crusty old, still the whole party, you know, where they have like the skin texture of a Captain D’s crackling where it’s like that. Right.
SPEAKER 10 :
I think Senator Gillibrand might have been one of them you were thinking of.
SPEAKER 03 :
She’s not the old man who basically was like, how many times do you beat your wife? But her rant was insane. So imagine you’re, you know, going in for your sec def hearing. Here’s Kirsten Gillibrand losing her mind. What is she freaking out about? Oh, the women and the gays. Go ahead. Soundbite 11T Frillion. I don’t even know. I don’t even know what the hell soundbite it is. I just know we have it because there’s like two pages of audio. It’s 27. I think it’s 27.
SPEAKER 02 :
So women, you have denigrated. You have also denigrated members of the LGBTQ community. Did you know that when Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell was in place, we lost so many crucial personnel, over 1,000 in mission-critical areas. Who did that? Okay, stop, stop, stop.
SPEAKER 03 :
I’m not going to get there. Wait, stop. We’re going to have to be. Who did it? Who did it? Who did it? Sorry, I just made your dog’s death. Who did it? It rhymes with the closed bin of cigar. Under the desk, Schmilbinton. Rhymes with that name. Who did Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell? It’s Bill Clinton! What is the party affiliation of one Bill Clinton? Kane? Party affiliation of one Bill Clinton?
SPEAKER 10 :
That would be Democrats.
SPEAKER 03 :
Democrats, you don’t say. Oh, okay. What? Okay, go ahead. Let it go. This is going to be a day.
SPEAKER 02 :
No, then when Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell was in place, we lost so many crucial personnel, over a thousand in mission-critical areas. We lost 10% of all our foreign language speakers because of a political policy. You said in your speech. You did it! You don’t want politics in the DOD. Everything you’ve said in these public statements is politics. I don’t want women. I don’t want moms. What’s wrong with a mom, by the way? Once you have babies, you therefore are no longer able to be lethal. I mean, you’re basically saying women, after they have children, can’t ever serve in the military in a combat role. It’s a silly thing to say. It’s a silly thing to say.
SPEAKER 03 :
I mean, you can… Yeah, he didn’t say it. He totally didn’t say it. Why do you hate women? Why did you say women are stupid and I hate them and they’re not allowed? Like, well, I didn’t say that. Why did you say it? He just has to sit there and listen to this. Dear heavens. I would never make it through this process. I would be bitch slapping everybody and hold off in jail. There’s no way I could. No way. I mean, at Parkland, I prayed for like two hours straight to that event. I don’t think the flight’s that long from Dallas to D.C. I wouldn’t be able to go through that confirmation process. It’s not a long enough time for me to pray for the Lord to firmly put a hand over my mouth. Good night. Can you imagine you show up and this is what they’re… They’re just making up stuff and attributing it to you. Now, look. Look, I’m not… a blind tribalist. I am a practical Machiavellian. That’s how I look at, that’s how I would describe my politics. A practical Machiavellian who wants to be left TF alone. That’s me. And yes, there’s things you can criticize Hegseth for. I think that this is where living in a social media world and going for clicks can work against you because everybody has to be flashy all the time. And then when you are considering a position where you have to be measured and discerning. and look like the steady hand of control then those two realities meet and it’s you have to reconcile them and that’s a tough thing to do that said if you’re going to go after the guy for something make it for something he actually i don’t know said I don’t know. I mean, they’re trying to they’re asking whether or not this guy is competent enough to run DOD. Can I remind you about the twink that they had literally as the deputy nuclear? He was the deputy nuclear twink and he stole ladies suitcases, ran the hell around the country, stealing women’s bags right and left. If you were missing a bag at any point in the last few years, I’ll be damned, Sam Benton probably stole your luggage and he’s out there wearing your panties right now. I’m just saying. They had that twink running around, stealing everybody’s luggage. And that man had a security clearance. That man was the deputy nuclear twink, Cain. Or if I were saying it in a Texas way, nuclear. Nuclear twink. By the way, sidebar, new band name, Nuclear Twinks. And it’s like a Scissor Sisters cover band, a very, very flashy Elton John, early Elton John, but yet conservative gay dudes. How about that? Noting. Okay. Gosh, I’ve already had the costumes in my head. I have more audio. How are we doing this today? Because, oh my gosh, there’s like other stuff that I have to get. I can’t, man. I would be escorted out. There’s no, I couldn’t even sit there. Couldn’t even sit there for this. So with Hegseth, and again, I haven’t heard a single question from a single Democrat about war fighting. What do I care how you have sex in war? Can you shoot a dude between the eyes if he’s a Terry? Can you? I default to my position on terrorism, by the way, is the key and peel skit on it. If you wanted to know what that is when they’re on the plane, it’s one of the funniest skits I’ve ever seen in my life. I can’t. I’ve seen it a million times. I can’t play it because they’ll find us. But it’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen in my life. And I would probably freak them out if I were sitting next to them talking about my preparedness on a plane. And they wouldn’t be able, I wouldn’t be like the scared dude they were talking to. But that’s my, you know, why do we care? So-and-so likes Lisa Frank stickers. Should that be allowed in the middle? Shut up! What does this have to do with war fighting? Well, blah, blah, blah. What does that have to do with war fighting? Can you do a Mozambique? Two in the head, one in the chest. Can you do it? Yes, no? Huh? I don’t know. The whole thing is frustrating. This is about war fighting. This is about the fighting force. There are no feelings in this. It is very, very clinical because there are objectives to accomplish. And when you don’t do your mission right, people die. It is serious. And they’re sitting here messing around with identity politics in a hearing, asking questions about, well, if someone wants to pretend that their penis is a vagina, should they? I don’t know. Are they mentally stable enough to pop a terrorist? Are they? I mean, are they? Is it possible for them to give that much of themselves and serve their country without having to put how they have sex or whether or not they like to tuck as like their priority? I mean, do we really have to sit here and consider special badges for them? A Tucker? Like, do we have to do that? I’m at. You know why it sounds absurd? Because it’s absurd that this is even a conversation that we are having. With everything going on in the world right now, the economy, conflicts, the open border, spiraling national debt, the devastating inflation, it’s critical that you have a plan for diversifying and protecting your savings. And that’s why so many, including myself, have turned to precious metals like gold and silver to help protect our savings.

SPEAKER 10 :
And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s Quick Five.
SPEAKER 03 :
All right. Up to four in 10 people could develop dementia after age of 55. That’s kind of terrifying. It’s higher than historically normal, say the doctor folk. So they said, here’s what you can do to lower your risk. And that’s when I just stopped caring. I’m like, yeah, whatever. Is anybody actually going to do any of this stuff? They’re like, what you do in midlife really matters. Okay. And they’re like, it’s not only Alzheimer’s, you know, and they get into blah, blah, blah. They make you read the whole article before they go, okay, here’s some risk things you can do. Blah, blah, blah. Like, they actually said one of the things in here was wear a helmet when biking. I have a story about bicycling, by the way. I don’t know. And they’re like, exercise is good. Exercise is good just generally. Let’s see. Third of Americans say their partner acts like a baby when they’re sick. How are so many people soft? When I’m sick, I still show up unless I’m real bad.
SPEAKER 10 :
Most vulnerable part of your life is when you’re sick.
SPEAKER 03 :
I think it’s when you’re a baby.
SPEAKER 10 :
What if you’re a sick baby?
SPEAKER 03 :
That’s even worse. They said that they did this research and they found that they were looking at what’s the most common complaints in winter and then they said their partner’s acting like babies when they’re sick. Jeez. I don’t know. I have feels about that headline. It just seems ignorant. Let’s see. A theorist warns humanity is teetering between collapse and advancement. Yes! Does it involve an asteroid? No. Some sweet asteroid action. I’m just wondering. Does it? Oh, there you go. Oh, here’s where I immediately stopped caring about this article. When is the end for humankind, the article states. And you can tell that because I’m reading it in a stupid voice. Whether it’s by a nuclear holocaust or the result of exceeding a critical climate threshold. And I’m done. Moving on. Let’s see here. Oh, you can’t just hang out at Starbucks anymore. You have to order some of their burnt bean water in order to continue being there. Coffee chain has reversed the policy that allowed open access to its cafes because they’re trying to improve store environments. I don’t go into Starbucks’s. I don’t. I don’t like their coffee. And I think that the what is it? What’s the one? Not the peppermint mocha. Pumpkin spice. It tastes like turkey water. I don’t like it. I used to like the pink peppermint spices or the peppermint thing. It tastes like diabetes.
SPEAKER 10 :
The pink drink was good for a little bit.
SPEAKER 03 :
What the hell is that even?
SPEAKER 10 :
What? You’ve had that before.
SPEAKER 03 :
I don’t have that estrogen swill. What?
SPEAKER 10 :
Yes, you have.
SPEAKER 03 :
It’s been a long time. I have not had no pink drink, sir.
SPEAKER 10 :
I haven’t had it in a long time, but I remember when I did have it. It was good.
SPEAKER 03 :
It tastes like pink. Are you going to tell me next? Anyway, they reversed their policy. That’s really the only point of sharing that. Also, a hotel booking site were caught overcharging travelers from the Bay Area. They’re from the Bay Area. Don’t go there. You don’t have a problem. Facebook has been getting. Look, I get it. Mark Zuckerberg. Didn’t realize how bad the censorship was until he legit got censored on Facebook. And then he was like, what? And now he’s they’re undoing all their fact checking stuff. I get it. I mean, whatever brings you around. But now all like there’s these leftists are upset. And some of the people who got who are on the left who got super upset and we’re supposed to care. It’s the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Where America, what the hell do those titles mean? Nothing, nothing. I love the people who are like, we just want our privacy. But then they’re like, that is a Sussex. They have to constantly use that all the time. That, that shit cannot go anywhere without being like, we’re judges of Sussex with everything. So, uh, what is it? The ginger and his D list, not even a main role on some Canadians drama. I don’t even know what it was. What was it called? Briefcases. suitcase no that’s it she was in a game show and then she did a drama she was the suitcase girl on a game show and then she did this canadian drama i don’t know i don’t do dramas yeah i don’t know anyway i didn’t watch it nobody knew it until i mean her biggest role was pretending that she’s in love with this guy the prince harry Anyway, they released this statement. Tina, why are you being so mean? Because they released this statement and it’s so stupid. I’m not going to read it out loud to you because I’ve never seen anybody write so much and say so little. I can tell this me again, or sorry, Megan, verbal typo, wrote it because… It’s one of the dumbest things I’ve read. It goes on and on. It’s just a bunch of rambly word salad, bad grammar, and five-star cringe. That’s it. I mean, it’s wild. They’re upset because meta allowing more free speech is going to undermine the free speech, my guys. It’s going to undermine it. It’s going to. So I’ll share with you some. There you go. Contrary to the company’s talking points, allowing more abuse and normalizing hate speech serves to silence speech and expression, not foster it. Wait, what? So I love how the left goes. If your speech isn’t what I want, then it’s hate speech. They consider hate speech to be things that disagree with them. Like if they go… color is blue. And you go, I really like green. That’s hate speech. Duchess of Sussex, that’s what they do. So, they’re upset over meta. They’re upset and they say, they write, millions of people are using meta’s platforms in the United States. Hundreds of millions more are using them globally. Wait, full stop. What? What? We didn’t know that, Kane. We would have known it if the Duchess of Sussex hadn’t put it in a statement. What? They add, why even waste the energy to put these dumb sentences in a statement? Many use the platform to spread joy and build community and share empowering information. Unfortunately, Matt’s recent decision go directly against its stated mission to build a human connection and instead prioritize those using the platform to spread hate and lies and division at the expense of everyone else, the judges of Sussex. Constantly. First off, I love how lots of people can use the meta. They use the Facebooks. She sounds like a grandma writing this. And I can tell that she wrote it because it’s particularly dumb. And then they say, oh, we’re alarmed by plans to abandon the commitment. Who cares what year? What do these two grifters do? I agree with this. Was it the Netflix or Spotify? I don’t know. Everybody that they’ve ever entered into a contract, they never actually develop projects. It’s like they half-ass it. They did this polo thing. Nobody cares. I’m sorry. Nobody cares about polo. They really don’t. It’s a rich person sport. I like the horses. I’ll pet the horses. I’ll feed one an apple. I don’t watch it. I don’t watch it. I’m not even going to pretend. They did this thing called Polo and after they had their weird documentary and then she has a cooking show coming out where she rips off all everybody else’s recipes on Pinterest and she pretends to cook and all you see is her fidgeting with every single dish that she’s expecting people then to eat. It’s gross. And our hair is everywhere. It’s like tie your damn hair back in the kitchen. My gosh. I don’t know. But why is it? that someone that insists on using British titles in the United States is trying to control speech in the United States. We don’t have a monarchy here. You guys should have actually stayed in Britain and done the work and been content to be behind the prince and princess over there. Oh, but see, they thought that that title, they were upset. They didn’t want to have to curtsy to people that outrank them. They didn’t want to have to deal with all of that stuff. So They came over here to try to set up a court in Montecito. So they’re rage. They have no influence. These are people who come up with these like all these different organizations and they send out statements to make it look like they’re doing something, but they don’t actually do anything. They shut up in Los Angeles. I mentioned this yesterday. Disaster tourism is what Justin Bateman accurately called it. And reports on the ground said that they stayed for like 17, 20 minutes. And were gone. So she basically drove two-something hours from Montecito to L.A. to stand around in a ball cap and then take pictures and act like they were doing something. Seriously? This is so dumb. What have they actually done? Didn’t he start a travel company that was supposed to be about green travel? And aren’t they under now? And their Archwell Foundation, because they have to make their filings public because of how their tax structured. So when they publish their financials, the majority of all the money that’s given goes towards people’s salaries. They don’t do anything. And so they come out with this. Oh, these are harmful setbacks and blah, blah, blah. And this is dumb. No one cares what the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Nobody cares what these two grifters think about what Facebook is doing. They are so uninfluential. She can’t even get a bite. She can’t even get an invite to Gayle King’s birthday party. She couldn’t even get an invite to that. Didn’t see him at any of them Golden Globe parties. You know, they were going to go to Hollywood and really shake it up. But, you know, no, they can’t. They can’t deliver. They said, having worked in this space for the last five years, you didn’t work. Those filings also show how much they work for basically a couple hours that they might put in a week. They get six figures or something like that’s what the salaries, that’s what the public financials were showing. I mean, it’s this is so it’s so lame. The last thing we need are, you know, two trans monarchists trying to tell everybody what how to think and what speech is allowed in the United States. Good heavens. It’s so on brand for them. What have they touched that hasn’t just turned to feces? Nothing. But this idea that you’re demanding censorship for speech translates into more speech is dumb. What they’re calling for is censorship. More speech is how you combat bad speech. You combat bad speech with good speech. But the problem is, is that the left, in order to shut down debate and to secure their rhetorical positions, they just don’t allow for debate. They just shut it down because they’re too damn lazy to defend their position. They feel like they are too good to defend their position. Like, how dare you challenge them? How dare you make them articulate a reason as to why they support this issue that they support? So instead, because they don’t feel like putting in the work and half of them honestly don’t even know why they support what they support, which is why they don’t want to debate it. They don’t know. It’s a seamstress trendy thing to just jump on and support whatever issue. Oh, my gosh. All the right popular lefty people are mad at Facebook. I’m going to be mad at Facebook, too. And then you come out with a statement, a dollar short daily. But they don’t they don’t know really why they support what they support.
