01) Jeff Sessions Thinks Marijuana Caused The Opioid Epidemic
“Jeff Sessions has come out and said that marijuana is causing the opioid epidemic. All the science says just the opposite. Ring of Fire’s Mike Papantonio and Peter Mougey discuss this issue.
Interesting thing, Jeff Sessions, we got a short period of time here. But Jeff Sessions has come out and said that marijuana is causing the opioid epidemic. All the science says just the opposite. But Jeff Sessions says, “No, I don’t have any studies. But I can tell you that what’s happened here is the opiod crisis is being caused by marijuana.” What’s your take?
I think Sessions actually was quoted as saying that marijuana fuels the opiate epidemic when the science is directly the opposite and what I loved, there’s a 2016 Journal of Pain, which is an industry journal. So we’re not talking about a left winging organization. Journal Pain found that marijuana use was associated with a 64% reduction in opiate use among patients with chronic pain because marijuana can be used to decrease chronic pain rather than taken with opiates without the longterm addictive nature of opiates. Sessions has got it all backwards.
What is this about? I mean, first of all, you’ve got all these states, they voted. I mean, the votes have been overwhelming. I think in Florida it was 70% to be able to use medical-
passing a lot of, not just recreational use, but medicinal use of marijuana that reduces chronic pain. We mentioned earlier the opiates used for chronic pain with cancer, a lot of nausea. Well, one of the positive effects of marijuana in a medicinal use is it reduces nausea associated with cancer patients. So instead of popping highly addictive opiate you can smoke marijuana. Actually in the states that have legalized marijuana, they have less of an opiate problem than the states without it.
01) Borley Rectory – The Most Haunted House in England – Oddie’s Halloween Special
“The tiny parish of Borley is located in a lonely and sparsely populated area near the east coast of England, near the Suffolk border. It would be largely forgotten if not for the fact that it is the location of what came to be known as “The Most Haunted House in England”.
Harry Price took the case up after a newspaper carried a story about a ghostly nun at the house.. Price was asked by the paper to investigate and he was told about various types of paranormal phenomena that had been reported there, like phantom footsteps; written messages; ghostly whispers; the spirits of previous rectors, the sounds of a phantom coach outside; and of course, the spirit of the nun. This spectral figure was said to drift through the garden eternally searching for her executed lover.
Let us enter Borley Rectory my friends and see what we can awaken….
Oddie Beau’s ODDNESS Urban exploration & famous historical features! vintage crime cases & eccentric people from the past! …and other weird stuff 🙂 ….a dusty store window, filled with ancient alluring oddities. Once you’ve entered, you’ll never want to leave. Quality over quantity.”

01) Megyn Kelly About To Lose Everything Over Her Blackface Comments
“Earlier this week, NBC’s Megyn Kelly said that she didn’t understand what the big deal was about people going in blackface for Halloween, and actually said that when she was younger this kind of thing was perfectly fine. First of all, no, it was never fine. But more importantly, it seems like the NBC host is about to lose everything, partly due to her comments. Her talent agency has already dropped her, and NBC is preparing an exit package for the embattled host after pulling her show for the rest of the week. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.
Former Fox News host and for the moment, current NBC host Megyn Kelly has been having a really bad week because she doesn’t understand what’s so racist about people dressing up in Blackface. Earlier this week, Megyn Kelly did a little roundtable discussion on her NBC morning show where she talked about the fact that, “I don’t get it. When I was younger people could do this and it wasn’t seen as offensive whatsoever.” That’s something she actually said. Like, back in the day, everybody wore Blackface all the time and it was just totally cool for us to do this. And everyone’s like, “Blackface. That’s cool. That’s not racist at all. Let’s go get a malt.” I don’t know.
It turns out, no. Blackface has always been racist. In fact, that’s why Blackface even exists. It started back during the Minstrel shows and it was supposed to be an exaggerated racist version of what African Americans in the United States were actually like. It is rooted in racism and has always been racist Megyn.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, Megyn Kelly coming on saying, “I don’t see what the big deal is.” She then sent an email apology I guess to the country, the world, whoever I don’t know. She sent an email apology because she couldn’t be bothered to come and give one in person.
Following this she was immediately dropped by her talent agency. Megyn Kelly has now lost her representatives. Her talent agency wants nothing to do with her. We found out this morning that NBC has decided that she’s not going to host her show for the rest of the week. They’re just going to run some reruns, maybe hoping the whole thing will blow over. But reports have also come out in the last 24 hours showing that NBC is actually wanting and they spoke to Megyn Kelly about this, about a week or so ago about winding down her show. Bringing it to an end because it’s just not working out for anybody.
And now, after the Blackface comments, NBC is reportedly already working on an exit package for Megyn Kelly to pay her off and get her off the air. This is exactly what Megyn Kelly needs. But let’s go back to the Blackface comments and her not knowing that this was some kind of racial thing. Megyn Kelly has made it a point throughout her on-air career to always take the side that white people can do no wrong. I mean she’s also going out there and insisted, done multiple segments on the fact that Santa Claus is white. And if you depict him as otherwise, then you’re doing harm to the white race. Jesus Christ was also white according to Megyn Kelly, even though that would actually be impossible given the time frame in which Jesus was said to have lived and the geographic location in which Jesus lived. There’s no way that can even be possible Megyn.
Megyn Kelly, I saw somebody on Twitter say this, my apologies for stealing it and not being able to properly attribute it. So if you were the one who came up with this, please accept full credit. But you can take the girl out of Fox News, but you can’t take the Fox News out of the girl. And that’s what we saw this week with her comments defending Blackface. Megyn Kelly is now and always has been a Fox News person at heart. And no matter what network they put her on, what kind of audience they give her, even when they try to keep her away from politics, that Fox News side of Megyn Kelly is always going to shine through.”
