Ask Dr. Drew

Tyler Fischer: Comedian Gets LIFETIME Airline Ban (And Is Added To No Fly List) For Deleted Flight Attendant Joke + Attorney Bobbie Anne Cox – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 424

Sun, 17 Nov 2024

Description

Stand-up comedian Tyler Fischer tweeted and deleted a joke about his Delta flight attendant’s pin… and the airline responded by placing him on the No Fly List. The multibillion dollar airline says they are aiding their employee in securing an attorney to “take action against their attacker.” “Banned for LIFE from flying. To be clear I had deleted this post already because flight attendants face was in it,” writes Fischer. “I have been a loyal customer and have spent over $10,000 in flights just in the last year with Delta. Now, what chance did they give me? Zero.” • SPONSORED BY JUVENT – If you’re serious about optimizing your health and wellness — especially if you want to strengthen your bones and improve mobility — check out the JUVENT Micro-Impact Platform.

Chapter 1: What happened to Tyler Fischer's airline ban?

75.448 - 76.129 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Ridiculous.

0

76.149 - 76.73 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

I'm a doctor.

0

76.77 - 78.971 Bobbie Anne Cox

Where the hell do you think I learned that?

0

80.312 - 85.777 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

I'm just saying, you go to treatment before you kill people. I am a clinician. I observe things about these chemicals.

0

Chapter 2: What was the controversial joke that led to the no-fly list?

85.817 - 91.781 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Let's just deal with what's real. We used to get these calls on Loveline all the time. Educate adolescents and to prevent and to treat.

0

91.882 - 97.046 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

If you have trouble, you can't stop and you want help stopping, I can help. I got a lot to say. I got a lot more to say.

0

107.25 - 126.981 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Joint muscle pains are exhausting and frustrating, but I've got a over-the-counter medication I want to introduce you to that provides great relief using the power of, check it out, chili peppers. Capcidin is made with a proprietary formula that contains no non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, no opioids, no anesthetic or steroid, nothing, no chance for addiction, no side effects.

0

127.481 - 147.548 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

No chance it's going to interact with other medication you might be taking. Capsodin contains capsaicin, which is the substance in chili peppers that burns your tongue. That gives you that burny feeling. And of course, I've recommended capsaicin creams to patients over the years, but other capsaicin creams burn your skin. That's what makes capsaicin so unique.

0

147.608 - 151.669 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

In clinical trials, capsaicin has actually been demonstrated not to burn.

Chapter 3: How did Tyler's tweet impact his career?

151.949 - 163.932 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

I've been using capsidin to relieve my pain in my hands and my wrist from carpal tunnel syndrome and arthritis. The results have been amazing. I use it every day during my show and I highly recommend it.

0

163.992 - 186.605 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

0

186.665 - 210.177 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

If you know that story, he's an expat in Germany who got just railroaded for putting a little symbol that taking on sort of fascism, but putting a fascist symbol suddenly became an issue where he has been railroaded by the legal system there. So we've been working on trying to get him for quite some time. He'll be in here with Remy De La Quia again. He's got something to update us on.

0

Chapter 4: What legal actions is Tyler Fischer considering?

210.658 - 231.973 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

And then Susan's show will be at three o'clock. We'll tell you more about that later. But right now, Tyler Fisher, I want you to follow him on Tyler Fisher, F-I-S-C-H-E-R.com for tour dates and whatnot, as well as follow him on Tie the Fish, F-I-S-C-H. Let's see, is there anything else we gotta, you can, where else we gonna know about Tyler? I'll let him tell you himself.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of Delta's response to Tyler's tweet?

232.013 - 232.954 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Tyler, welcome to the program.

0

235.467 - 241.21 Bobbie Anne Cox

Oh, hey, Drew, you just caught me using some capsid in here. This is awkward timing. Nice. Nice.

0

241.23 - 252.775 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

You don't want to put it on your mouth, though. That will burn. But it is good for everyone. Not on your junk, either. Not on your junk. Yeah, the junk will burn a bit. All right.

0

Chapter 6: How is free speech being challenged in comedy?

253.215 - 254.616 Bobbie Anne Cox

Well done. That's where it's used.

0

255.536 - 270.443 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

All right. How are you, man? Nice. Well, mostly I'm looking at the doggy over your right shoulder, whom I recognized from our last breakfast together. There he is. That dog goes everywhere with Tyler and is the sweetest. Why?

0

271.323 - 284.509 Bobbie Anne Cox

Well, because we flew somewhere yesterday and we just drove five hours. I have a show in two hours in Omaha, Nebraska, in case anybody's around at 7 p.m. The funny bone in Omaha, Nebraska.

0

285.799 - 291.664 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Nice. And does she, is it she, right? She? No. Okay. Hold on.

0

291.704 - 304.673 Bobbie Anne Cox

What are her pronouns? What are her pronouns, dude? I didn't think you would misgender this early in the program, but here comes your far right extremism. They, their name is Freddie.

Chapter 7: What role did politics play in Tyler's experiences?

306.175 - 312.88 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Okay. So they, them, do they, them travel with you everywhere? I mean, what do you do during a show?

0

314.591 - 327.708 Bobbie Anne Cox

Yeah, he flies with me. He's a train service dog. Yes, straight white men have problems too, as you know. So yeah, during the show, he just sleeps right here. I come right back to the hotel room. Oh, wow, nice.

0

329.59 - 344.726 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

I got it. So talk to me, speaking of straight white males having problems, tell me about the lawsuit. I think I saw you with Dr. Phil getting into detail about playing the tape that you had. Tell people about what happened there.

0

346.229 - 372.952 Bobbie Anne Cox

Yeah, Dr. Phil. Yeah, he was one of the only ones to allow me to talk about it. I'm forever grateful for that. Yeah, quite simply, I've been in the acting industry for 17 years. And I would say like eight or nine years ago, I started to hear things from agents, managers, comedy clubs. They would start saying, well, there's too many white guys. And Ugh, too many white dudes.

0

372.972 - 397.492 Bobbie Anne Cox

And then the white dudes became almost like a slur. And they just started saying it out loud. So one agent quite literally scouted me, said, we're going to get you on SNL. And then he fired me over email. Let me go over email. He just said, it's too tough out there for white dudes because they're all a bunch of woke pussies and they can't stand up to this stuff. So

Chapter 8: What does Tyler think about the current state of comedy?

398.553 - 422.349 Bobbie Anne Cox

As you can see, with Trump being elected, it just snowballed and people just said enough. So that happened. And then another agent, a manager scouted me. We got to get you on that. You know, the same old thing. And then they called me and they said, we've we have a problem. We have a new company policy to not represent white men. And I recorded it because I was like.

0

423.305 - 446.619 Bobbie Anne Cox

you know, I was losing my damn mind. And so that was three years ago, filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court in Brooklyn, New York. It's legal to record people without telling them there. Thank God, I had no idea. And yeah, it's been three years and it's been quite a wild journey to see the reaction, both positive and negative.

0

448.02 - 449.561 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

And how are the courts treating it?

0

450.751 - 468.504 Bobbie Anne Cox

We haven't even gotten a court date yet. So nothing has really happened yet. We're just sort of waiting to see if it's going to court or not. You know, I think it can come down to, do we have a woke jury or not?

0

470.186 - 471.366 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

Oh, it's a jury trial. Interesting.

471.807 - 474.649 Bobbie Anne Cox

I'm not sure yet, but yeah.

475.066 - 479.448 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

So you're a white nationalist, fascist, white supremacist, right? That's obvious.

480.128 - 498.295 Bobbie Anne Cox

Yeah, when I didn't get the COVID vaccine, those were the labels. And so I was like, well, that's a quick way to throw someone out of the Democratic Party. I was a lifelong, very loyal, very good little Democrat. And they lost a good one, you know? And now it's like...

499.602 - 515.287 Bobbie Anne Cox

You know, I didn't become Republican or conservative, but if they're going to welcome me with open arms and say, hey, you can't fire someone for their race and you can't, you know, ban someone from an airline for a tweet, then come here, Daddy Donald. You're my dad now.
