many of them, just like here in nashville, gathering outside of the stadium to listen to the taylor swift because heir not ready to -- they're not ready to shake it off. but new jersey state police posting this warning on instagram -- yes, they have an instagram -- that they would only allow people with tickets into the surrounding parking lots saying, quote, sorry, swifties, no ticket, no taylor-gating. perhaps swift fans are asking why you gotta be so mean. [laughter] well, we might have the answer here, and i'm going to start with griff jenkins -- [laughter] because, you know, if you were going to do some taylor-gating because you might because you love her and your family loves her, but they're not just going to let you in because, you know, you're a fan. >> they should. and people keep telling me, tammy, you should calm down, by -- but i won't, okay? because this feels like a death by a thousand cuts. i gotta tell ya -- [laughter] this right here is just a blank space. and me getting tickets at $19,000 a pop, it's it's as rare as snow on the beach, it's not

going to happen. >> ayiay -- ay. >> i think we need to turn this into an intervention for griff. [laughter] >> so -- >> this is where you stop. >> i can't stop, i won't do it. please, are you kidding many me? >> are you going to spring for the lowest amount at least, for $1,000, because it may never happen again. >> that's insane. >> this is a good question. honestly, full disclosure, i haven't lost my mind, although i do love taylor swift. guilty as charged. however, it's because my daughters listen to taylor swift. i ride soul cycle with my oldest daughter, madison, we started looking at tickets, and we were laughing that you can get $19,000 incompetents but then i couldn't find -- tickets, but i couldn't find a single one under $1,000, so sadly, i don't think i'm going to the make it. >> well, there are -- this is one of those things, sara, this is a point where the covid emergency is over, we want

entertainment, we want to go out and have some fun. we haven't been able to see our favorites. you have a similar daughter issue when it comes to fanhood. >> yes. i have a 10-year-old taylor swift pan -- >> yes! >> -- and i told her, yes, we're going to have a concert right here in the kitchen, and i'm going to listen to you sing -- >> that's not going to work. >> "you belong to me," right? from. >> and you made her pay $100. >> and i made her go out and wash the car and told her i'd give her $15. >> you've got to take her. have you seen the videos onlinesome. >> can't do it. a taylor swift is excellent. i think about sarah vaughn, ella fitzgerald, frank sinatra, a different kind of style. i think she's a very good singer, but do you think -- and because bruce springsteen put up a fight about ticket scalping and the prices of tickets. do you think this is normal, or is it outrageous, this kind of ticket price for people? >> i absolutely think it's outrageous, you know? i mean, look, people are going to pay what they're going to

pay, it's capitalism, right? >> it's a free market. >> if you want to pay 20 grand, pay 20 the grand. the majority of people in the country cannot afford $20,000 tickets. >> yeah, if i can just make one little note here -- [laughter] the real swifties, the real swifties are the ticket agencies swiftly sucking up money from parents who love their kids and a very young audience. look, i was caught in the middle of the swift-nado in nashville a couple of weeks ago where they were packing the streets, girls in the hats and the boots -- >> you were right there in the middle of it. >> no, i wasn't, i was driving by trying to get to franklin. look, i saw tina turner, i think we paid $100, okay? maybe the the great rock show ever. i saucy gnat rah 30 times. i didn't pay more than $75 for those incompetents, okay? what's happened with ticketmaster creating this dynamic pricing and these artists ca capitulating and letting their fans be victimized

this way, they have -- taylor swift may have turned herself into the antihero here. >> you're right. look, speaking of -- we've got audio of these kids saying why they're willing to spend whatever they can spend. let's watch that. >> are you like everybody else in the world that paid aen arm and a leg? >> yeah. [laughter] >> do you think it's the worth it though? >> yes, 1 100% worth it. >> why? >> because it's taylor swift. i mean,st taylor swift. >> can would you pay an arm and a leg and a college tuition this? >> i did. >> is it going to be worth it? >> i thinks. i want to see the smile on her face, and that will make me a proud mom. >> we are spending pretty much half our salary on merch -- >> and we'll spend the rest on tickets. [laughter] >> wow. and obviously, raymond arroyo, is the problem -- >> oh, yeah, i'm the problem. [laughter] >> i paid $500 to take my nephew to a michael jackson concert, so we know about quality acts and talent and paying money for it. >> okay. >> they out of line?

>> $75 hoodies and $45 t-shirts after paying thousands for the ticket? come on, if they're fans, they should pay face value for these tickets. but the scalping and the dynamic pricing in these ticket the agencies, it's too much, and i'm sorry, she -- [inaudible conversations] >> some will do it. these dads -- >> it's the free market. it's what sara mentioned, it's the free market. you know, the demand and -- >> but we're setting up expectations for our children that are crazy. >> i agree. >> $20,000 a snick it's -- it feels very spoiled, very self-centered. i get it -- >> and tina turner and sinatra sang every note. taylor swift, but her own admission, is singing under tracks -- >> hey, look out over here. >> wait, wait, wait, sinatra did not sing every note at the last concert i saw him at. [inaudible conversations] >> i disagree. i disagree. >> i, there is part -- i'll go back to what i mentioned before

about being out of the pandemic, being able to live life, being able to to go and see a favorite person who entertains you with, is this something, is this maybe an element of that? because nobody's been really spending their money. we haven't gone anywhere. there is inflation. >> yeah. first of all, no one is paying this kind of money for any other artist, because no one else is taylor swift, no offense to tina or the chairman. the thing that triggered something in my mind, if you remember and you were a taylor swift fan, during covid she was releasing multiple albums, and so many of these young girls that were stuck with no life may have become even bigger fans. but i will say this, that dad in new jersey that paid $to -- $20,000 to send his daughter to the concert, you're not helping. >> there's another thing which i'm concerned about what might happen with this other element that i mentioned which is the police saying don't come if you don't have a ticket. these normally could be like

nashville -- >> right. >> they're kids, they're wanting to show up, they're gathering outside. it could get out of control. they don't want you to listen to the music now? you can't sit in a park, like, way out at a distance? now we're going to be patrolling the parks and getting kids, what, lockdowns when taylor -- >> well, cops didn't kill the dead shows, the grateful dead people lived in the parking lot. that was their main residence. swifties can't come? come on. >> with $19,000 a ticket? you can sit in the parking lot. >> and now after this our audience is going to be saying, what's in my bank account now? >> listen, i have done the numbers constantly, i just did the them ten minutes before this show. my wife's, i'm trying to get her to -- >> blank space is going to be in his bank account if it goes -- >> well, there you go. that is the fun as we move into this memorial day weekend. the summer travel season is off to, in fact, a record-breaking start not just to that stadium. some fliers are clearly not behaving well.

♪ big old jet i airliner, don't carry me too far away. ♪ oh, big old jet airliner ♪ >> welcome back to "the big saturday show." memorial day weekend is the unofficial kickoff to to summer fun, and millions of people travel to do it. all of that flying is already breaking new records. compared to the last year, more than 3.4 million travelers are expected to take to the air, an 11% increase. now, airfares are nearly 10% higher than before the pandemic, and passengers are more unruly. there are more brawls and squabbles on planes than ever before, and that's just the flight i took to get here. and we all saw that one passenger who opened the door during a flight, and he told the police he felt claustrophobic and wanted to get off the plane quickly. now a flight attendant has stolen my ingraham angle segment, and she's offering it etiquette rules. some of our favorites include everyone has a righting to

recline, but there's a polite way to do it. clean up after your kids. no one wants to hear your facetime conversation. the middle cease gets both armrests, i disagree. >> i do too. >> headphones are a perfectly acceptable conversation-inner, and keep your socks on. [laughter] tammy, aren't the airlines partially to to blame for all the crudeness we're seeing in flight? i mean, the seats and the aisles are so tight, it forces this kind of proximity. >> yes. i mean, you're often touching the person next to you, you've got these narrow-bodied planes, also to save gas, by the way, you fly slower, so you're in the air longer. the faster you fly, the more gas you burn up, right? so i think that that it's, it's also like kids being out of school for three years. if you haven't been in a large crowd or in some kind of public thing for a while, some people seem to lose their minds and forget how to act, you know, like a human being. [laughter] and that might be part of it because you, it's kind of all new. it's been, the last few years

have been horrible, and now we're moving out of it. i say just, you know, be polite, treat people the way you would be with treating -- well, i don't know if you would treat your own family well -- >> yeah, be careful. [laughter] >> and just recognize you're going to be in this plane for a while with all these people. >> sara, i had two little girls behind me yesterday, they are screaming, playing the tablets at full blast, kicking my seat. the two parents are in, like, a drug-induced coma in the aisle and in the corner letting the girls do whatever they want. so i threw that seat back and reclined a couple of times in protest, didn't help. which a "usa today" op-ed says is a ono-no. there's a growing consensus that leaning back is a no-no urn all circumstances. we're simply out of room. you can't use an airline seat any way you want. just try changing your baby's diaper, the flight attendant will send you to the lavatory. is it a sin to recline your

seat, sara carter? >> this has been one of the biggest questions i have had on an aircraft, because sometimes when you reklein your seat and someone already has that their tray down and you're, like, trusting back because you want to sleep, you feel like you're throwing the food or their laptop the right in their face. but i've got to tell you this, raymond, this is where i can't understand, you can never be so upset or so claustrophobic that you literally open the door mid flight while people are guesting bursts -- they were lucky that people had their seat belts on, because they would have been sucked right out the door, right? you can never get that angry. by the way, i have children, we'ved had six altogether, my husband and i, so we've been through it all. you just need to turn around and tell the parents -- >> well, the parents were half dead. yeah, they're out. i don't blame them. if those were my girls, i'd be hitting the sauce toon the plane. [laughter] >> tammy brought up a good point about covid because, tammy,

during covid -- and i remember traveling a lot, i was flying a lot for fox, you know, parents were having such a tough time with keeping the masks -- >> that was horrible. thank god that's over. >> and parents were being thrown off planes. i saw that with my own eyes. >> it's about basic decorum. >> civility. and in those tight confines with the ridiculous spacing -- oh, the double armrest -- >> what about that -- >> i'm sorry. >> each person can have one. >> you know, i fly southwest. the guy in the middle to got there last, i'm sorry, i'm taking both armrests. but griff -- [laughter] i'm in a bad mood -- >> he's sore on the plane, isn't he? >> today there have been more than 18,000 delays and 600 cancellations. i want to play something for you. this is pete buttigieg, okay? and he's talking about air traffic control shortages. tell me if you buy this explanation. >> you were very hard on the airlines about their staffing

issues. a year later atc is still having its own staff thing issues. why hasn't that gotten fixed? >> well, look, we're going to own anything that's under our control. we're talking about 5% of the issue. we're hiring up, staffing up. meanwhile, the airlines -- which are responsible for a much greater share of the delays and cancellations -- have made improvements since we really put that pressure on them a year ago. [laughter] >> it sounds like blame is in a holding pattern here, griff. >> yeah. all he left out was blaming also climate change, because he likes to do that too. and, look, i don't want to really get in the middle of this, but he is not owning up to the fact that these planes which we keep seeing these near misses, which is getting even more dangerous, it's a clear problem that when we came out of covid, we knew everybody was going to want to travel like crazy because they'd been locked down. and so, you know, secretary buttigieg is going to have to own more than he says he's owning, because really they

identified the problems a year ago. now they don't have the solutions, and i don't want to jinx myself here because, you know, you face as we do travel a lot for fox, you get into a lot of delays. and, unfortunately, you get some cancellations. i even paid for -- you know, they do these things now, hey, for $40, we'll move you to the comfort seat. okay, great. so i wait percent next connection, i got on, and i'm, like, in the back, you know, in the middle seat in the back of the plane, and i was, like, i paid $40, and they're like, shut up, get on, i don't care. >> you're lucky you got a seat at all. >> i just got on the plane. this is on buttigieg's doorstep. >> but buttigieg is not admitting we are at a 30-year low for the number of certified air traffic controllers. that's on the transportation secretary and the biden administration and the faa. they need to attend to this. this is the agency that allows more flights in and out and patrols our airways, if you will. >> i just want to remind people, we bailed out the airline --

>> right. >> covid money. >> right. >> and so now you've got, if you're going to have the federal government get involved, you can start saying a few things like what we might want to expect for the citizens and especially when it comes to the safety mechanism. i've been watching air disasters too much on the cable channel. [laughter] i just now know those air traffic controllers are important. >> they are very important. and the buck stops with buttigieg. >> we gotta go. our flight is about to take off here. coming up, kamala harris told some pretty tall tales during the naval academy's graduation last year, so what far-fetched story are we in store for this year? she spoke ott west point cadets this memorial day weekend. that's next. ♪ ♪ ♪ how to grow delicious herbs: step one: use miracle-gro potting mix.

>> just ask any marine today would she rather carry 20 pounds of batteries or a rolled up solar panels? and i am positive she will tell you a solar panel and so would he. [no audio] e. >> well, i'm not so sure about that. i watched and looked at the remarks, guys, from the address at west point today, and it did not appear from what i could see that she used any venn diagram, but i'm not sure that the cadets were quite as motivated as when they had their military leaders like last year it wases the joint chief of staff general mark milley who could theoretically be their commander sending them off to faraway with, dangerous places to fight for our free come which is, of course, what we recognize this specific memorial day weekend.

but let's start with you, sara, what did you make of vice president harris' speech? >> look, i think the west point cadets probably -- [laughter] did not expect to get vice president harris. like you said, they probably were not very excited about this. my husband's in the military, this is memorial day weekend. i think that the military has had a lot to deal with over last year or two and especially right now with wokeness in the military and a lot of issues that the military is facing. having vice president kamala harris there, look, she didn't do as terrible of a job as she has in the past. but it's not like getting admiral mcraven and his speech about making a bed or that feeling of, like, we're really challenging the future because, frankly, it is the biden administration that opened up the floodgates, in my opinion, to both russia and china, to our adversaries that emboldened them to kind of take advantage and push our nation really on the brink, some would say, of world war iii. so if anything, i think they

could have had a general there, somebody that they could have looked up to, somebody that would motivate them for the future, and that's just my two cents. >> tammy, i'll come to you. look, we have the smallest fighting force we've had in decades, and those cadets know it. we don't talk a lot about it in the national news, as much as we should, i think, but they know full well. and so perhaps when she's telling them you're going out into an unsettled world there would have been some sort of really rally. if she's going to take the baton and give the speech, you've got to rally the troops and give them the assurance that they're going to be on the front line and have what they need. >> when you think, when i heard that and when they heard that, everyone's thinking, well, that's your fault, right? this is an increasingly unsettled world. the trump administration if showed everybody that you can get things done without a lot of boots on the ground, that you can kill the enemy, you can get missiles into windows and get soleimani, al-baghdadi. so the military knows how to do

things when they're allowed to do the things they need to do. and, you know, so wokeness is part of the problem, and it's not just, you know, what we need on the field, but it's about recruitment in general as well. people, the re9 cutement numbers are horribly down. you've got people looking at, well, who is the commander in chief, who is the vice president, and it's, it's like virtue signaling. it's still stuck in virtue signaling, and that then reverberates to all those -- thank god that they're at west point and that they made their commitment. but, of course, people are concerned about the military, the brass, what young people like that are being taught and what the impact will be when they're really needed. >> raymond, i think you want to weigh in. >> just picking up on what tammy said, it's worse than virtue signaling. it really is using the military and our young cadets at west point to the raise the propile of kamala harris who, we have to say, everything she's been entrusted with, everything, is an abject disaster. she's -- >> you suggesting the border's

not under control? >> the border's not under control, the voting rights act didn't get passed, and most notoriously, she is to our science czar as well -- >> oh, no. >> great. >> if it weren't for elon musk, we'd have no rockets in the air. >> all right. >> so this is a sad display from someone with very little to commend themself, and the speech was a mess. she started giggling -- >> are we being too mean on her though? >> no. >> because in fairness, her boss hasn't done quite as great of a job. here is a quick flashback of president biden's addresses to graduates. >> but all kidding aside, of course president harris is a proud howard alum. she might have something to say about delaware state. i can only assume that you'll enjoy educating your family about how coast guard is, quote, the hard nucleus around the navy forms in times of war with. you are, you're a really dull class. [laughter] i mean, come on, man.

is the sun getting to you? >> come on, sara. >> oh, come on, man. look, i covered the war, i was in afghanistan and iraq. i spent a lot of time on the ground with our troops, and just to take a serious note right now because we could be making fun of this, which we should, but this is memorial day weekend. and we lost so many men and women, you know, in the fight to keep our country safe and to aspire to to those values, those principles that our founding fathers established that make our nation the envy of the world. you know, so it is, it is sad that we have, you know, the border czar, the failed border czar out there talking to our troops and afghanistan. i can tell you this, a lot of troops right now are upset with this administration. a lot of them kind of retire on the job or left, you know, their post because of what happened in afghanistan and that horrible withdrawal. >> let's leave it there, that's a good point. appreciate that. meanwhile, straight ahead on

decades to marry the two most worthless e men in the universe and then proceeded to have the three most ungrateful children ever conceived. the only reason people are nice to me is because i have more money than god. now, i'm not about to open a new can of worms. >> weezer -- >> what. >> if this is really how you feel, it isn't healthy. maybe you should think about coming down and talking to the guidance center. >> i'm not crazy, i've just been in a very bad mood for 40 years. [laughter] >> there you go. but that southern accent, interestingly, could be hurting those looking for pay bump in the workplace. researchers at the university of chicago just found that the southern drawl could cost people up to 20% of their wages, and i just want to let the whole audience know memphis over there with griff -- [laughter] alabama with sara here and new orleans as we know -- >> guilty. >> i also am from southern california. i don't think that that works.

>> your wages are fine. >> yeah. griff, or this is what's interesting, we know about the act sevens, we do find them charming, and yet there does seem to be -- 45% of job applicants so muchen their accent. -- soften their accent. is this okay is or is this a bias from people against a certain part of the country? >> it's a serious bias, but i don't hold it against them. i am a tennessean, along with taylor swift, i had to throw that in there -- >> oh, my god. >> again. >> in all seriousness, yes. i mean, this has been going on for a long time. in fact, i don't have much of a southern accent as much anymore unless maybe you get a few beers in me, and it comes in, it starts sneaking out a little bit because the first job i had out of college in 1993 was with working at a radio station in washington, d.c., and i would read -- $25 off the barbecue down at -- and the program director came in and said, so

about the southern accent, can we just a little less there? true story. >> see, now, i'm wondering, sara, if this really -- is it maybe still about the division between the north and the south? and what we think of southerners, who i believe make up the bulk of people who join our military and serve this nation. >> yes. or is it about wanting everyone to have kind of a universal sound to hem? is this -- am i looking too much into this or is it -- >> no, i think it's point one, i don't thinkst the about having a universal sound. my father was from alabama, my mother was from cuba -- >> suddenly coming out a little bit. >> i'm going to throw that out there just a a little, but i remember going to my grandma's house this coleman county on the farm, and she would say y'all come back now, ya hear? and i think a lot of it has to do with kind of this prejudice against southern people, this idea that all southern people are a certain way. or, you know, and you talked about the military.

it's the same thing with the military. i remember hearing people say, well, only uneducated go to the military, and i was, like, what? my husband served in the -- you know, it's always this idea that, and i personally believe, i also noted concern noticed it with my mother with her cuban accent. >> raymond, i want you to take a look at this map where job seekers soften their accents when they're applying for jobs. i mean, you can see -- [laughter] that there's a particular block. and it's above texas. >> above the mason dixon line, i might point out. [laughter] >> but to my point, so what's your take on this? >> well, my take on it is ignorance and a caricature of the south. >> yes, exactly. >> i do think it has something to do with the fallout from the civil war -- >> yes. >> because after the war and ongoing people dismissed the south as being uncultured and crude. as a life arelong louisianian, okay, your music, your jazz, rhythm and blues, country,

that's southern. >> right. >> the letters, the great letters and dramas of american life, tennessee williams, my friend anne rice, faulkner, walker percy. this is the heart of american letters and expression. it is the southern. how dare you -- >> and the greatest food. >> and taylor swift, we know, you're going to mention -- >> it's about jealousy. they're simply jealous. >> there is a bit of that. >> we have attractive blond women, we have great barbecue. next knox. >> okay, he's trying to get free taylor swift tickets. >> it's not just the south. it's like western new england people are softening their accents. you might think about katherine hepburn in that kind of a sense. >> yeah. >> does that kind of ruin the point here? >> no, it doesn't. i might mention to griff, taylor swift is are from pennsylvania. so we'll leave it there -- >> oh! >> but tina turner, b.b. king -- >> oh, god bless her, tina turner. >> he has a new jersey accent.

>> it's our picks for the biggest fails of the week. let me go first. the los angeles department of transportation is facing a lot of heat of after they unveiled its new 18-inch solar-powered bus shelter in four l.a. neighborhoods. the small structures provide lighting at night and shade from the heat during the day. if you're looking and wondering, wait, this isn't the right shot, it is. that is what is supposed to give you shade. it's like holding a random metal pole and calling it an umbrella.

officials there blasting it saying when you deal with los angeles folks trying to deal with the heat, it's like bringing a knife to the a gunfight. raymond? [laughter] >> that is sad. my flop, or should i say flops, are butt ugly drag queens, the dodgers and north face. [laughter] time was drag queens were impersonators attributing iconic female entertainers, tyler perry or milton berle. for some inexplicable reason, professional baseball teams and clothing companies believe the american public should be treated to some of the most hideous cross-dressers imaginable. the dodgers decided to honor a group of anti-catholic bigots known as the sisters of perpetual indulgence. aren't they sweetsome they routinely mock religion and engage in displays including doing a strip act on a crucified man. after an uproar, the dodgers canceled these sisters, then they backtracked. at the same time, an outer or

wear retailer smacked their audience in the north face with this ad featuring a drag queen that looks like pennywise the clown got into his sister's wardrobe. [laughter] i mean, a horrible looking thing. my question is simple, do north face and the dodgers believe that their core audience, their fans -- they're fanses of ugly drag queens? last time i checked, men in dresses weren't packing dodgers stadium or scaling the north face of a mountain. tommy lasorda used to say people who make it happen, people who watch what happens and people who wonder what happened. after these strikes and misses, they'll all be out with their audience. tammiesome. >> yeah. fortunately, you know, none of us have ever dressed up as a clown, and we won't be. >> [inaudible] >> all right. apparently not. >> it's ridiculous. it doesn't even look like an old drag queen. >> my flop goes to black lives matter who reported a $9 million

deficit in 2022, yet their founders managed to purchase a $6 million mansion for parties according to one of the cofounders. i can tell you they've also spent money giving money to their founders, to officers still, and they just don't know where to stop. but at least it's a good sign that they're not making as much money, and now they're spending themselves into oblivion just like liberals and democrats everywhere. >> this is ridiculous. here again you have nonprofits, you know, taking money from contributors or and spending it on themselves and not being held accountable. >> that's right. sara. >> well, here's mine. forget sleepy joe, it's congressman jerry nadler who was caught napping during a judiciary hearing committee this week, and he frequently does that. well -- >> you know, in fairness -- >> i was waiting for more. i wanted to see the picture of nadler sleeping -- [inaudible conversations] >> there he is. >> we have seen so many -- >> i know he's done it before.

>> you know what they need to do? pipe taylor swift -- >> oh! >> you know what his nickname is? >> no. >> his nickname is serial napper. serial napper. >> sara, you consider this a flop. i consider this a win for the american people. >> yes. >> he's sleeping. he's not legislating or moving anything or voting. let him nap, i say. let them the all nap. >> feinstein and fetterman are awake, and that now, i guess, is the new bar. >> they've been doing it forever. remember strom thurmond -- >> yep. >> -- and so many of the lawmakers that just show -- >> it's insulting. >> when are we going to stop paying lawmakers to just go to sleep? they wouldn't fly anywhere else. wake up. listen to some antihero, it'll do you some good. put a little pep in your step. >> or it would be also the difference between going to a town hall and mocking your constituents -- >> guys, i wasn't going to do this, but if you can get a

ticket for griff to go see taylor swift -- >> get it out of his system! one ticket. oh, my goodness, yes, please. call us on this show, get ahold of us, get me a ticket, i'll even sit in the backseats for only $2,000. that does it for us. we'll see you back here tomorrow 5 p.m. eastern for "the big sunday show." jon scott's next. here you go. ♪ crisis talks inching forward but some negotiators a deal could happen at any moment. good evening i am jon scott and this is the fox report. basics both sides are racing to craft an agreement as a treasury secretary about them some breathing room by pushing back the deadline a few days. on deck we have steve more freedom works economist for trump advisor. first we go to senior congressional correspondent chad pergram who is light on capitol
