it taste right according to the Smithsonian magazine. And so we may have the first lab grown cultured fish. Now, here's the weird thing. I'm a pescatarian, so I eat fish. I don't love it. In fact, I don't really like any fish, but I eat them because protein. But even I'm grossed out by this lab grown meat. You would think that I would be more grossed out by the thought of eating a dead animal or d…
← Previous segment →t want to have to prepare it. I'm going to buy a steak and then maybe I'll change my mind and not eat it. I haven't eaten steak, I don't know, 40 years. Long time. About 40 years, I guess. And I thought, well, I just won't tell anybody because then if I change my mind, I don't have to explain it. But, you know, so I go to DoorDash and I start shopping for a steak. Do you know what a steak costs? Oh my god. The steaks locally were $54 just for the steak. If you wanted something on the side or a beverage. Well, that's more. And then you've got the delivery fee and then you got the tip. And I'm thinking to myself, am I really gonna pay, I don't know, $150 for a steak or whatever it was when you add everything in. Maybe $100 for a steak. And I actually changed my mind because if I liked it, I didn't want to spend $54 every time I ate. So, I'm doing okay financially. Like, I don't have any money problems. But even I wouldn't buy a $54 steak. Do any of you buy $54 steaks? Is it only because it was on DoorDash? Now, I understand that it would be cheaper if you buy your own cut of meat and cook it at home and stuff, but I had no idea that a steak was that expensive. Now, I knew the price was up, but my god, $54 for a steak. Incredible.
Well, Trump is going all Don Quixote on the windmills in New Jersey. Says they're not dependable and they raise electricity prices and he wants to get rid of windmills. Do you think that's another one of those 80/20? I don't know if it's 80/20, but I feel like most people, even if they're green, you know, they like green stuff, they probably think the windmills are not the best way to get there. So, I feel like Trump has yet again, save the whales, save the birds, you know, don't kill the whales, don't kill the birds, it's ugly, get rid of these windmills. So, I think he picked another winning topic as he does. A lot of you hate windmills. I know. I've heard from you.
All right. It's a slowish news day until Trump wake

s up and starts creating some excitement. Yeah. I'm watching Land Man with Billy Bob Thornton. If you haven't seen that show, Land Man, oh my god, is that well done. The acting, the casting, the writing, the concept, you know, of the people they put together for it. It's really good. It's like one of the best things you'll ever see. They do have at least two scenes where somebody's tied to a chai…
