Dana Lash’s Absurd Truth podcast sponsored by KelTech.
4 (36s):
It’s his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It’s time for Florida, man.
5 (46s):
Can I do, man, if I would’ve come into any with, into this with Beside the Florida man thing with any song, I think it’d be a jukebox hero maybe. Did you guys hear about this? This floor. So these dudes got into a fight over the jukebox, what was playing on a jukebox? And this dude ended up getting shot. So a Florida man was shot dead after he got into a a, a dispute over a jukebox song. And it was adding Mexican restaurant and I love how they’re like, it turned violent. It was in Fort Lauderdale early Monday morning, and it was an argument over a jukebox song. And the dispute began. The dispute began at this restaurant when one man began commenting on another person’s music selection, according to authorities, said Maro Bonilla.
5 (1m 34s):
He said to W-S-V-N-T-V quote, I heard there was two guys and they got into an argument ’cause he sounds like he’s from Jersey. ’cause one of them played a song in the jukebox and the other guy was kind of ticked off. And he goes, the guy who got insulted pulled his weapon and started shooting the other guy. They actually wrote it phonetically as he said it. They, so the guy drew his weapon first and the other. So one of them played a song on the machine and the other guy was mad and said, you’re not a real Mexican if you play that B music is what he said. Which then made me stop and go, well, how can, what is not real Mexican then? Like, if, if he played, what did he play that he got accused of not being a real Mexican, right
4 (2m 14s):
Brooks?
5 (2m 15s):
Yeah. Like Kain. You’re white adjacent. So it’s true. you know, like what, what would somebody play in a Mexican restaurant that would make you go, that’s, you’re not a real Mexican. What does, how does that work?

5 (2m 31s):
Don’t have Joe Biden go there. Anyway, the guy who was shot and killed was a 54-year-old. The other guy was taken into custody and man, they had just, out of all the stories, a Florida man wearing an ankle monitor tried kidnapping. Oh, attempts at kidnapping in a Walmart parking lot spotted when legs were flailing out the truck. According to the affidavit, the Juan Marcos Perez, he tried to kidnap a woman in Orlando and he had an ankle monitor on, and it was 4:30 PM Monday. And he tried to put her in the trunk of the car and he was threatening to kill her.
5 (3m 12s):
And witnesses said that she watched, she turned and looked as the victim’s legs were flailing out of the trunk. They did get him. They saved the woman and they got her. He’s going to court now.

Welcome back to the program. Dana. Lash with you. Do you guys, what’s your favorite? Kim, what’s your favorite book of the Bible?
4 (5m 6s):
Favorite book of the Bible. Man, that’s a tough one because I do like Psalms. You go back to that one a lot for like Peace Psalms. Yeah, peace Psalm. Yeah. Piece Psalms, So, I. Think it’d be Psalms. There’s a lot of books there and a lot of things to pull from. Mm.
5 (5m 20s):
I I’m partial to Ephesians. Yeah, but what about those Ecclesiastes? Huh? you know the book about the Ecclesiastic people? Oh, oh, wait a minute. That’s just, I apparently that’s what Kamala Harris, that’s, she thinks that that’s Old Testament scripture. I’m not kidding. Audio soundbite one.
7 (5m 40s):
You know, there’s a time for patience and there’s a timeframe impatience that’s not in Ecclesiastics, but, but just want off script for a minute, mayor
5 (5m 53s):
The Ecclesiastics, you know, remember when they got, I feel like I say this a lot. Do you remember when, do you remember when they got mad at Trump for, what did he say? Two Corinthians? Yeah. Is that what he said? Yeah. It’s not one, but two Corinthians, something like that. Right? Or second Timothy. Instead he said two Timothy. I think it was no, think it was two Timothy. Was it? Was it that it was one of ’em? don don’t remember. It was one of ’em. Oh, my gosh. And the left. The left was, can you believe Trump doesn’t know this biblical book? He doesn’t know this book of the Bible. Can you believe it? And they just lost their minds. Well, what about the Ecclesiastes people? I mean that’s, it’s, it’s goofy, right?
5 (6m 35s):
And it just goes to show you that she Yeah, it’s, you know, the Ecclesiastics that’s actually sounds like a great theological punk band name. Where they take, it’s like they take the book of Psalms and they turn it into punk songs. And their first album is called Punk Psalms. Oh, we’re just writing it right here on air. That’d be great. The last,
4 (6m 59s):
The last letter is an X
5 (7m 1s):
In the name.
4 (7m 1s):
That’s right. It can’t be a cs.
5 (7m 3s):
That’s right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ecclesiastics, right? That’s right. Oh. my gosh. That actually would be, how is that not a punk band? Right? That actually would be really great. I can see them opening up. I can see them playing like the Vatican. you know, you like go out there and see Peter. We’re the Ecclesiastics. I can see it, man. I would totally go to that show. Wouldn’t you go to that show? It’s just all Psalms punk style that actually I wanna do it. I mean, I know enough power chords and I can play rhythm guitar poorly enough that I could be a punk. I could be a punk guitarist. Right. I can do it.
4 (7m 41s):
And the next book in the Bible song of Solomon. Right. So
5 (7m 44s):
There, it’s, that’s the second album. Yep.
4 (7m 45s):
That’s what it is. Yeah. Follow up.
5 (7m 48s):
And then in the style of paranoid Android, just have a character. Just have a song called Solomon. It’s Ecclesiastics. Sounds great, doesn’t it? It’s a great, that’s a great idea. I can’t believe no one’s done that yet. So she actually, she didn’t come up with that idea. But anyway, it’s
4 (8m 4s):
Like that band Penton, or what was the
5 (8m 7s):
Pentatonics? I liked them for like five seconds and then I was like, okay, I’m done with it. I can only take so much. you know, like there’s certain types of music that for five seconds I’m like, this is the greatest. And then it’s too much.
4 (8m 19s):
I revisit during the holidays.
5 (8m 20s):
Really? Yeah. I don’t like don don’t, no,
4 (8m 23s):
It’s usually in playlists and it pops up.
5 (8m 26s):
I don’t like it here and there. I mean, don don’t not, I don’t dislike it. I just, it’s not my jam. I like the old cruisers.
4 (8m 31s):
Yeah, yeah. It’s not my jam, but I’ll run across it. During the holidays
5 (8m 34s):
When we were, when I was a little kid, I have no idea how we got on the subject. When I was a little kid. My mom would, they would put her and my stepdad would have he, because he was, he had a record player. He was one of those people. He was a vinyl is a vinyl person. And he would play all kinds of like old Christmas music on these albums, these vinyl albums. And so And, we, and that’s how you decorate the tree and all that stuff. And so now I have to have that music around Christmas. you know what I mean? Ecclesiastics. Yeah. Ecclesiastics. Can you imagine the Ecclesiastes Christmas punk? That’s amazing. Like a way in a manger, but punk style.
5 (9m 15s):
That’s so cool. Like, like a really fast drum Oh. my gosh. Like I’m already like imagining it in my head. And guess. And you wouldn’t have to pay royalties ’cause it’s kind of like considered American standard, right? Right. Dude, for reals. I can’t believe that hasn’t been done. Trademark, copyright.
4 (9m 33s):
I’m gonna work on that right now.
5 (9m 34s):
I’m saying I’ve got guitars. I mean, I can play, you know, I can make it, at least one part of it happen. I could play drums poorly enough where I could put those tracks down. Can’t play bass to save my life unless it’s like, you know, three, three chords. That’s about it. But there you go. I, where are we going? That’s okay. The cle, you guys would buy that album, I feel like. I feel like you would. Can you imagine Oh? my gosh. And you could, oh, I’m just, I I need to stop ’cause I’m like going on and on and on. Can we just like, do air guitar and like we are coming in with a little Metallica. We’re in a very musical mood right now. Yeah. It’s Thursday. We’re coming towards the end of the week. And also we, we were playing on Kamala Harris’s, Eccle Ecclesiastes Blunder.
5 (10m 17s):
and I had an idea for a theological punk band that covers Psalms. Right, right. And so Kane ran it through AI and it’s actually, it’s not bad. Give it a You got it? We got it up. Yeah.
4 (10m 32s):
It’s not licensed or anything.
5 (10m 33s):
So we can Yeah, we can totally play it. This is our Oh, you’re playing it? Okay. Go
9 (10m 38s):
Turn it up.
5 (10m 41s):
It’s the
9 (10m 41s):
Ecclesiastes
5 (10m 43s):
Covering psalm. Wait, wait, Tony,
9 (10m 59s):
It’s not bad. Yeah,
4 (11m 2s):
I mean it’s ai,
5 (11m 4s):
Ai I
9 (11m 7s):
Declare the decree Lord has said unto me and I shall get. That’s nice.
5 (11m 20s):
It’s actually, it’s actually not bad, dude. It’s actually not bad.
4 (11m 23s):
I’m in, I didn’t think AI could do this.
5 (11m 26s):
I didn’t either. I really wanted to hate it. I wanted to hate it so bad. I was always prejudiced against it. I am, I am technologically prejudiced. And So I was already prejudiced against it. And it, it actually is, is not bad. It’s actually pretty good. I’m not gonna lie. That’s,
4 (11m 45s):
And apparently AI improves itself. Like when you, you sort of edit the type of style, like remember we had first iterations of these songs and they were more like, like Irish punk sort of
5 (11m 56s):
Drop kick Murphy ish. Yeah. It was like, it was like you had a bunch of people in an Irish pub who decided to set down their Guinness and then knock out a banger. Right. That’s what it, you know, and then this
4 (12m 3s):
Sounded like that. Then it sort of morphed into what we are hearing now. and I think there’s even more generations.
5 (12m 8s):
It sounded almost, it got into shanty territory. It did just a wee bit.
4 (12m 13s):
It did. The Ecclesiastes,
5 (12m 16s):
The Ecclesiastics. I like, I would see them, I would go to a dive bar where there’s probably not doors on the stalls in the women’s room. I would go there and watch that band. Absolutely. Yeah. So I mean we could do it. We, I mean, we were talking about how, I mean, I play instruments. I can play rhythm guitar poorly. I can play drums. Yeah. I could, you know, knock out something crude and you know, you know, could like, like a opening act in a dive bar. I could do that. But, you know, we ran it through AI for the purpose of time and it’s actually not bad. Not bad at all. Yeah,
4 (12m 46s):
I’ve heard worse.
5 (12m 48s):
I mean, and I love it even more because it’s ours. Yeah. So I. Don’t know. I feel like Yeah, that’s, that’s what I, I, I I love it. I Can you play it again? Will you play it again please? I really like this song. It’s the Ecclesiastics, our theological punk band.
9 (13m 5s):
Declare the decree the Lord had said,
5 (13m 20s):
When they just say things like these in a punkish context,
9 (13m 25s):
It’s cooler.
5 (13m 28s):
It’s actually not bad. It’s not bad. It’s a little bit, a little bit upbeat for me, but
9 (13m 34s):
Therefore,
5 (13m 36s):
Oh, it’s so good, dude. I would So I would so see them. It’s a jam man. That’s a jam. Hey Steve.
10 (13m 44s):
What’s up?
5 (13m 46s):
Does that slap
10 (13m 47s):
It does sound like a sea shanty a little bit though.
5 (13m 50s):
See?
4 (13m 50s):
Yeah, it did.
5 (13m 51s):
It is a little sea shanty ish. Although
10 (13m 53s):
When we were talking about Ecclesiastics, I thought it sounded, that sounded like a something you majored in college, you know.
5 (13m 59s):
Well, I mean, yes and no, but, but so Kamala Harris was trying, can we play her thing, her thing real quick? It’s real short. She was trying, don don’t know what she was trying to say. Ecclesiastes. And she got the name of the, she got the book wrong. Listen,
7 (14m 12s):
You know, there’s a time for patience and there’s a time for impatience that’s not in Ecclesiastics, but, but
5 (14m 20s):
Yes, that’s right. Ecclesiastics. Yeah. She knows Kamala Harris just referenced our punk band, right? That’s right. So thanks Kamala. Yeah, thanks Kamala. I actually now, I mean, it’s, I, I I’m, I’m gonna actually take this to the nth degree because I’m really, I, I actually like it.

5 (16m 44s):
So the courts block Ken Paxton’s appeal. They’re gonna have a gun ban at the State fair of Texas, which is in one of the most peaceful and least crime affected areas in all of the United States of America, particularly Texas. There’s no crime at all whatsoever that ever happens in Arlington, Texas. And there’s never been any crime that’s ever happened at the state fair of Texas. and I’m sure that they have more than enough resources to keep everyone safe from the gang bangers and the drug dealers that don’t exist and are prevalent in the area when people go and are disarmed. So go and eat your giant meat on a stick. Don’t get shot. Everything
6 (17m 16s):
You said was false.
5 (17m 17s):
Maybe is it, is it fake news or is it not? Nobody knows. Do they? Yeah. The state court of appeals. So he’s taking it all the way up. Go Paxton. Also Colorado tops the United States in cocaine use again. And honestly, if I had to live next to some of the dirty hippies that are now like all throughout Colorado with their pot shops, I’d probably have to use cocaine too. Marks the second time in three years that Colorado tops the country and admitted cocaine use. People are just like, yeah, we’re on cocaine. So, and it makes sense of Venezuelan games and everything in there. Yeah. Six people are hurt in an explosion from an intentionally set IED as opposed to an accidentally set IED outta Santa Monica Courthouse in California.
5 (17m 59s):
you know, you don’t accidentally set your IEDs, the man, and this is just the headline over at a BC News, the story, but wasn probably headlined by the editor, but it took three people to write 500 words. The explosion was around 8:48 AM Wednesday at the Santa Maria Courthouse in Santa Barbara. And it was a small, I mean, they, they said it, it was an explosion. That’s why they got such crazy security of courthouses. Let’s see, China test fires and intercontinental ballistic missile into the Pacific Ocean. I’m sure they meant for it to go into the atmosphere, but it probably just straight the hell up just shot into the water because it’s China. Also, Nancy Pelosi’s husband, in what I’m sure is just a total coincidence, sold more than $500,000 worth of Visas stock just weeks before the Department of Justice’s antitrust lawsuit.
5 (18m 46s):
you know, it’s just, he’s got very good in instincts and I’m sure he doesn’t trade on his wife’s insider knowledge at all whatsoever. you know, the guy who was assaulted in his underwear by another guy who, I’m not a conspiracy theorist. Was it his boyfriend? I don’t know. But he was a BLM Marxist, progressive antitrust cops also alleged that Visa was forcing financial tech firms to work with it by threatening to penalize people who don’t like Democrats. Also, A OC says that Eric Adams should resign as New York City mayor for the good of the city amid federal probes. you know who they wanna get into, don’t you? And we’re gonna talk about this. Andrew Cuomo is looking at his comeback. So who do you want as mayor of New York City?
5 (19m 27s):
A guy that maybe, is it considered a bribe or was it treatment? I don’t know. Do I care? Maybe, maybe not. But would you rather have that guy in office that took some money from Turkey? Or the guy who killed all your grandparents with his policies? I don’t, I mean, literally killed them. He took his policies, fashioned them into a stake and stabbed your grandparents in the chest like they were Nosferatu, So, I. Don’t know. Like who do you want in office? Andrew Cuomo. Or do you want Eric Adams, the guy who helped create all of the problems that New York is dealing with now? Or Eric Adams, who seems like a less annoying of a Marxist, not maybe all the way a Marxist willing to say some stuff about illegal immigration.
5 (20m 7s):
Did he take money from Turkey? Nah, I, the only thing, the only difference with Eric Adams and all the other New York Democrats is Eric Adams is dumb enough to get caught. That’s literally the only thing. ’cause all these cats have taken this kind of, they’ve taken upgrades, they’ve taken free trips, they’ve taken hotel stays. Literally every single one of them, he just got caught. That’s the reality of it. In the spirit of punk bands, have you ever heard of a Suic have suicide pod? It’s not a punk band, actually, it’s a way to die. Like an actual way to die. This is, I think these things are terrifying. So the BBC, the British Broadcasting Company has a story of how police in Switzerland made multiple arrests after a woman reportedly injured her life using a So-called suicide pod, which almost sounds like an nx s song, but that’s blonde.
5 (21m 1s):
It’s apparently the first case of its kind. Okay, so here’s where it gets super weird for me. I am fascinated by this story, and here’s why. When you think of suicide pod and like going to Merck yourself in a pod, I just think that I’m going into this like matrix type of environment where they have got them all lined up and you go lay and you, you press a button and it has it like squirts gas in there. So this lady, she apparently had like, I guess a, a, a degenerative disease or something like that. And she had been sick for a long time. and I, I, no, I’m not in support of euthanasia. She had been sick for a long time and the, I guess she wanted to go into the suicide pod.
5 (21m 48s):
So she’s 64 years old. She uses, she’s an American woman. And so she goes to this place out in the woods in northern Switzerland. So instead of going into this like matrix type environment, she’s literally out into the woods. They had this pod out in the forest and the maker of the Sarco suicide pod, they said that they wanted her to go under a canopy of trees. It was, it, it’s designed to allow a person inside to push a button and inject nitrogen gas into the sealed chamber. And then they fall asleep and then suffocate to death in a matter of minutes. So, and if you thought, if you wanted to know if the guy who made it looks nuts, he does, he, the guy who in who invented it is, you know, it, it looks nuts.
5 (22m 38s):
So she’s out, you know, in the woods, in Switzerland, in this space pod, and they put it out in the woods. So she gets in to the space pod or the, the, the suicide pod. And they said she pressed the button almost immediately and it took like five minutes. And they said that, you know, they could see her, she, they could tell when she went unconscious and her muscles were twitching. And then that said, the police showed up and they found a woman’s body in the pot. So I got a lot of questions also now too. Like, did they leave her there? Like how did that work? I mean, don’t you get it out? And, and also I know this is, this is how my mind works. Please don’t judge me. But you know what, the first thing I thought of when I saw it, there was a picture of it online and like it’s o you know, it showed it open and it showed the guy invented it getting into it a tanning bed.
5 (23m 24s):
It does actually look like, it looks like an old tanning bed. Yes. But when you get in there just saying, not that I supported or ever would you have to know that it’s been used before. Ew. Is that weird?
11 (23m 38s):
Well, you’re dying, so what?
5 (23m 41s):
Yeah, but it’s weird though, right? Yeah. I guess if you’re, I mean, it’s weird that you’re going into a pod to die, but
4 (23m 47s):
I think the mindset of people who are wanting to do this, they’re least concerned. They’re, the concern at the bottom of their list of concerns would be that someone else died there. Because
5 (23m 59s):
I would be like, did someone crack their pants in here? No. No. Like, did they mess themselves in here? Like, you know, ’cause they’re bo like, when the body goes, you lose control of those functions, right? That’s true. So it’s like, ooh, was it icky? Like who had to clean that up? Did they clean it? Well, because can you, you’re in the pod and you’re pressing the button. Not that I would ever do this or suggest that you do this, it’s horrible. But what if you notice like some gunk in it, like, oh, they didn’t get the spot and then you’re dead. That sucks. That’s a horrible way to go. I don’t think
4 (24m 27s):
People are gonna be concerned with that. Honestly.
5 (24m 29s):
That’s totally what I would be.
4 (24m 30s):
I’m like, I’m getting in there to die. The fact that it might have a little gunk in there is probably gonna gonna,
5 (24m 36s):
You’re getting into like a nasty like hobo pod. That’s gross. This So I mean that’s not this the Yes, you’re getting in the pod to murk yourself, but shouldn’t it be a clean going, you know, it’s so weird. I mean, I feel bad for the lady who thought she had no other choice and it, and they, and they said that they put it out in the woods so she could look at the trees in the sky. Hi. Or because it’s easier to hose it off. I don Dunno, just, oh man, it’s so weird. She, she cashed out her life savings and flew to Switzerland to do this and I don’t know. And it’s, I it’s weird.
5 (25m 17s):
This whole thing is weird. And now there’s like accusations towards the group Of course. It’s called The Last Resort. Who they said that they, that they wanted to, they spent her money and wanted it to be, they told her she would need it after she was dead. And they said that her family seemed that they took advantage of her. That that’s one of the accusations. But the, the, the po this is just all so weird. It’s just so weird. And they said that when you get in it, it, it has a little voice that, that says quote, if you want to die, press this button. No. Yeah. Ajas France Press gotta look at it.
5 (25m 57s):
And that’s what it says. If you want to die, press this button. Is
4 (26m 0s):
There another button that you just last minute decided you wanna live, that you press?
5 (26m 5s):
Is the cleanliness not up to your standard press this button. Is the
4 (26m 9s):
Lid locked until you decide to die? Or is it
5 (26m 12s):
Yeah, don don’t, yeah, I guess it seals you up in there. Good lord. Ooh, it’s just so weird. Like you, you’re don don’t know, but it does also sound like a punk band suicide pod opening for the Ecclesiastics one disapproves of the other. Hmm. don don’t know. Steve says it looks like a bad transformer emphasis on trans,
4 (26m 34s):
What?
5 (26m 35s):
It does look like a bad, like seventies transformer. you know, it looks like a pager. A giant pager that’s out of the woods, right?
4 (26m 45s):
A giant flip phone.
5 (26m 46s):
Be careful because if it’s from Taiwan and the Israeli company out there, it could blow up. Just saying, just saying, I’ve got, I just, I am fascinated by this thing. But that’s what it says to you. Like when you get in, like, press this button if you want to die, it’s a 3D printed capsule and you get in it and you press the button and that’s it. That’s horrible. That’s just so bad. I mean, and this woman was 60. She’s young, right? You, you’re telling me she couldn’t get any other, you know, don don’t know. I, I, it, it’s just the whole thing is weird to me. But the, they, they’re trying to call it the Tesla of euthanasia.
5 (27m 26s):
What a disregard for life, right? This is like mass produced life ending. This is horrible. And it’s outta Switzerland. Can I also say, you know, and I love the Swiss, but man this are some pretty weird Nordic ideas up there. Let’s just create a pod that’ll mur you like that in minutes and then they’ll have a whole line of them up. It’s weird, although like some of the best horror movies come from up there just saying,
4 (27m 52s):
I was reading too, like, they don’t say how they dispose of the body, do they? No. So
5 (27m 58s):
Does it like,
4 (27m 58s):
Open the lid and hope for wolves? What do they
5 (28m 2s):
They open the lid and they do hope for wolves. Okay. No, I mean, I, I don’t know if all of them are like out in nature, but I’m just, I’m, I’m a little curious because it looks like it could lean up and just dump you out. What if it does that? What if it like t trabu shas your dead body out of the pod? God. Well look, if you’re murking yourself in a pod, let’s just drop all pretense of, you know, taste here. You’re, you’re murking yourself in a pod. Nobody should be offended if I’m like, does it t trabu sha your dead carcass out of it. I mean, it’s, it’s all
4 (28m 35s):
Horrible. Would it surprise you to find out there are people lined up to do this? That there is a line of
5 (28m 40s):
People that makes me sad. That there are people that are lined up
4 (28m 42s):
To do, do this. There’s a waiting list to
5 (28m 44s):
Do this. Are you serious?
4 (28m 45s):
120 people. Apparently there are some 120 applicants hoping to use the machine to end their lives according to the last resort.
5 (28m 55s):
That’s so sad to me. I feel like the guy who’s doing this, who created this whole thing is, I, I just think that it’s exploitative and you’re preying upon people at like a horrible time in their lives. I agree. And then I I, and it makes me feel sad that these people don’t have a support network. I mean, the pot is ludicrous, but it, you know, it doesn’t distract from just the sadness that I feel for people who feel like they gotta do this. It’s just, ugh. Ugh. Goodness. Why does the guy who they call Dr. Death, he’s this Australian euthanasia advocate. Why do these people always look like freaks? I know they always look like freaks. Do they not?
4 (29m 31s):
Wasn’t it kevorkian for us? In, in Michigan? Yeah, Michigan I think or something.
5 (29m 35s):
They always look like, like, you know, they are the villains. You immediately know, oh, that’s the bad guy. ’cause he looks like the bad guy. He’s a just, they just, you know, they gotta look.
