  Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews you need to start
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to The West Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, eighteenth day of September. I'm Wes, thanks for
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: joining me. It's Trump's fault, that's what we're hearing now
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: about one two people wanted to assassinate him.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: It's his fault.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: He's the one with the toxic verbiage. He's the one
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: who is inciting violence against himself. That is, at least
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: that's what we're hearing. That's what we're hearing from the media.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: That's what we're hearing. I get well Hillary Clinton specifically
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: say that Hillary Clinton has jumped in on the verbage
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: against Trump basically and after two people tried to assassinate him.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: I guess the second when they're still into the allegedly
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: phase of all of this. But she's still calling the
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: former president a threat. He is a threat to our nation.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: He is.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Basically going to destroy the country. That's what he'll do
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: if he gets a second chance. He can't get a
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: second chance at it.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: This is what amazes me about all of this.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: And I don't have the exact quote in front of
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: me for Hillary Clinton, so I'm sorry about that. I
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: had it and then it's gone. But that's it in
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: a nutshell. Here's a couple things that I want to
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: dive into here this morning on the subject of not
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: how we oh, we can't give Trump a second chance,
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: that he's a threat to democracy. So you got that,
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: And then on the other side, you've got Kamala Harris
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: who says that she's going to fix things if people
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: would just voter into the presidency, voter in, and she's
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: going to fix everything. And if Trump gets voted in,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: he's going to destroy everything what seems to be lost.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: And I guess some people are talking about maybe at
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: least the Harris thing. We know that Trump closed out
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: the debate by addressing this point, but there are some
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: at least saying it that and he's saying he should have.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: I wish he would have said it more in the debate,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: to be honest, he should have just that should have
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: been the only thing that he said in a debate.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: And if they do somehow end up with another debate,
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: which I don't think they will, but that should be
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: the only point, just over and over again, every question
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: he gets asked, he should have just said Kamala Harris
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: has had three and a half years to do all
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: these things. Why has she not already done them? Why
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: is she holding this information on how to fix everything hostage?
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Because that's what it seems is the case.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: She's basically said, I know ways to fix things. I'll
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: do it if you put give me into office, and
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: no one pushes back, no one really gives her, and
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: you know, asks her really hard questions about it. She
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: finally did do an interview, though at least that happened
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: where all by herself. She didn't have anyone sitting there
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: holding her hand, which is nice. And of course it
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: was with the National Association of Black Journalists, the same
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: people who started their interview with Trump by basically saying,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: you've said all these horrible racist things, why should we
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: trust you? And asked about Kamala Harris being black and
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: all those sorts of things, versus the question to Harris,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: you know, is the country better off than it was
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: four years ago? So if you think, and gosh, I
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: want to I want to hit all of this, but
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: I feel like another little tangent to say here, and
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I want to remind you that when people ask the question,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: are we better off than we were four years ago.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: That's not the right question.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: And I think just as disingenuous as it is for
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Kamala Harris to say that the number of things that
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: she's accused of Trump of doing ruining the economy, how
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: she and Biden have created all these jobs. It's interesting,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: isn't it. There's things that she wants to take credit.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: For with him.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: They created all these and they keep calling them new jobs.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: They're very much bounce back jobs. To call them new
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: jobs is very disingenuous to basically try to take credit
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: for this creation of jobs that are just jobs that
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: went away during COVID and then they finally started to
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: come back. But to say, oh, they're brand new jobs
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: is certainly at best disingenuous. At worst, it's a lie.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: It's an outright lie. But for her to do that
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: and it to be questionable. And then the folks on
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: the right that are sharing this meme on social media
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: that shows the price of gas four years ago, that
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: shows the price of groceries four years ago, and you
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: know where interest rates were and all those sorts of things.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Let me just and groceries is a little different, maybe
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: because we know that was certainly a different sort of
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: effect on the cost of food four years ago. But
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: let's talk about five years ago, because that's really the
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: best assessment of where things were.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: Four years ago.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: We were, think about four years ago twenty twenty in September,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: we were still in it. We were in the throes
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: of the pandemic. There were still people that didn't have
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: those jobs that have bounced back. We had, you know,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: businesses shut down, a lot of people still not going
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: into work, people not going to school, all those things.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: School was starting back at this point, but a lot
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: of kids weren't starting back to school. Person price of
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: gas was really low, and it wasn't because Trump was president.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: It would have been lower five years ago. You could
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: have used that as a baseline. But by this point,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: four years ago, the reason that the price of gas
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: was down was related to COVID. It really so you
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: can't have both. You can't say that Harris and Biden
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: have created bounce back jobs because jobs were lost due
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: to COVID and then compare the price of gas from
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: four years ago and pretend like COVID wasn't part of that.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: That's not fair either, And I call out the right
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: when they do stuff just the same. Now, I don't
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: know that everybody's doing it on purpose. This isn't happening
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: at the presidential campaign level the way that it is
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: about the jobs. However, let's get back to my point.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: So the accusation from Harris is that she can fix
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: everything if we'll just make her president. She's got her
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: super secret plan to fix everything, make everything better, fix.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Inflation, all those sorts of things.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: She's gonna fix it, but she was not gonna tell
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: us really what it is. A couple of things that
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: she's lobbed out are basically like, you know, if you
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: have a business, I'll give you some money. I'm gonna
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: hand out some cash and fix things, houses, whatever. And know,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: you know all the experts saying that's going to be
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: a disaster for the housing market, it's gonna be a
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: disaster for us economically, all the things that you shouldn't do.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: But it sounds great on the surface if you can
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: convince people, hey, I'm going to give you cash to
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: vote for me. But I digress. So that's the accusation
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: is they can't fix it. They're not part She's not
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: part of this campaign. That's part of the problem, but
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: she is the answer moving forward. She wants to take
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: credit for the good things, for the jobs. She doesn't
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: want to take credit for any of the bad things,
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: and that she can fix all of the bad things
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: if we'll just give her the job.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Then there's Trump and they say, oh, if you give
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Trump one more chance, Trump's going to destroy our democracy.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: He's going to destroy the country. If you give him what,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: he's going to be a dictator. He's going to do
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: whatever he wants to do. He's gotten the Supreme Court
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: to give him permission to not be accountable for anything.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: He's going to do whatever he wants to do if
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: we give him four more years. Why didn't he do
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: that when he was in office? Why did he do
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: it four years ago. It's the same concept, except it's
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: flipped the other way, right. It's this accusation that he somehow,
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: only in the second term, would have forced his way
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: into being a dictator instead of doing ultimately what he did,
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: which is, you know, on on the actual inauguration day,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: there was no conflict. Trump was gone, Biden was in
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: the White House, was taken, and that was that.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: It was over.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: It's not like Trump, you know was putting furniture in
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: front of the doors at the White House, and people say, well,
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: he wouldn't do that this time, this time, he would
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: just stay in there. Well, okay, so there was talk.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: If you remember, you got to think back to Obama.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: There was talk then again on the right, he's not
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: gonna leave. He's gonna come up with a reason that
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: he can't leave the White House. He's gonna have to
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: stay there, and he'll be president forever. He's gonna take over.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: That's one of those fear mongering things that people throw out.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: They just throw it out. He's not gonna leave. I
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: don't remember if they were doing it during the twenty
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: twelve race, the reelection race. I don't remember if it
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: was there, but I do remember it. At the end,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: he's going to find a reason he has to stay
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: in the White House forever. We should stop all that,
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: and when people say it, we should stop them from
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: saying it. We got all these people saying, you have
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: to stop saying these things about the Haitian migrants. Because
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: Trump repeated something that was still being spread around in
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: news stories. I wouldn't have shared it, but I don't
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: share a lot of stuff on social media. I wouldn't
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: have talked about it in the debate if it had
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: been true or if it is true, And I don't know,
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know what the deal is. I can't pretend
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: to be an expert on this particular town in Ohio
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: and the Haitian migrants. If anybody's being harassed for it,
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: that's terrible. But I don't know that Trump said anything
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: specifically to say these Haitian migrants should be here. Isn't
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: it interesting that this is our point that we draw
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: the line. We have migrants that have come into the
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: country from a number of places around the world. Right
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: They've come into the country. Some of them in gangs.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Some of them came into the country and have just
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: you know, taken over hotels and just taking whatever they want.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Some of them have killed people. Obviously, that has been
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: what should continue to be the dominant headline, is when
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: someone rapes and or kills someone in this country.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: That's the thing that we kind of get mad about.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: Well, but we don't hear stories about, oh my gosh,
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: someone killed somebody in Ohio. So people are harassing the
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: migrants because someone got murdered.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: But all of a.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: Sudden there's an accusation that someone ate a pet, and
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: people just lose their mind. So now we're hearing these stories.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Oh and it's just, you know, millions of people that
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: are harassing Haitian migrants.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: Do we really think it's that many? I don't know.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: I mean to me, we have people that say Trump
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: shouldn't have run with the bait on the story about
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: the pets being eaten. But then people are taking the
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: story of I don't know a handful of people, how
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: many people are harassing the Haitian mind. I'd love to
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: know exactly what the stat is before we run with
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: that story, but that story has been completely run with anyway.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: So back to Trump. So Trump was in the White House.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: It didn't try to create a dictatorship. Ultimate on inauguration
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: day for Biden left, you know, just left. That's what
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: he did. They left, and that was it.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: That was the end of it.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: He didn't barricade himself inside. Obama didn't barricade himself inside.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: But Trump didn't do that. But now this accusation that
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: he's going to destroy democracy, he's going to do everything
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: he can do to make himself a dictator because he's
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: horrible he's hitler, he wants to destroy the country, and.
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: Then people start shooting at him. Because this gets repeated
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: over and over and over again.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: See when someone says something about Harris or Biden, people
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: don't get crazy with it because it's not being constantly
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: repeated on certain news outlets over and over and over again.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: The people that want this to get out of control,
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: the people that want Trump eliminated by any means necessary.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: That's been part of the mantra, that's been part of
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: the verbiage. Trump cannot get back in the White House again.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: We have to keep him out by any means necessary,
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: even if we have to, you know, use the Justice
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Department to go after him, if we've got to prosecute him,
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: if we've got to impeach him twice. You notice that
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: came up in the debate. He was twice impeached. No
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: mind mentioned about whether or not he should have been
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: impeached either time, or mention of the fact that he was,
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: you know, acquitted both times. I've told you before. They
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: put out the annual list of ranking all the presidents,
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: and they keep Trump down at the bottom among the
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: last or the last and part of that is because
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: of his impeachments, and then they'd like to point out
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: and they keep Clinton much higher, much closer to the top,
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: and they say he was impeached, but he was acquitted.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Trump was acquitted twice, and they were definitely politicized impeachments.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: Now you can make the case that so was Clinton's,
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: but you've made the case and you've said he was acquitted,
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: and you've moved on the very fact that all of
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: this attacks on Trump any means necessary, any way that
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: they could possibly keep him from being the candidate, keep
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: him from being on ballots, whatever they could do to
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: keep him away. So of course you keep talking along
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: these lines, and you were definitely going to put yourself
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: in a position where you're going to have people that
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: want to hurt him, and they're going to threaten him,
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: and they're going to try to you know, remember back
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: when they tried to get in the White House, they
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: wanted to get him in the White House and drag
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: him out on the lawn and murder him. That was
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: going on while he was president. No conversations about how
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: that was someone trying to overthrow the government, but you know,
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: dragging out a sitting president to murder him with a
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: mob outside burning a church down across the street. I
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: would think that that would qualify. It doesn't seem like
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: a nice thing to do. As my grandfather would have said,
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: that's not pretty. But anyway, so that's the gap we've got.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: That's basically the giant gap. We had a president for
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: four years who did not make himself a dictator. We
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: got a vice president now who's part of a sitting
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: president's administration that won't do anything to fix the problems,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: will only take credit for the good things, but says
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: that she needs four years as president before she can
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: fix the problems. But she won't tell you how she's
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: going to fix the problems, and no one will really
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: tell you how Trump's going to make himself a dictator.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: That's where we are. Trump didn't do it, Harris isn't
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: fixing it, but says she can as long as we
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: keep him from being a dictator and getting himself back
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: into office. Today's show brought to you by Columbus State
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: University's Coca Cola Space Science Center. Inspiring and educating the
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: youth in future STEM leaders and STEM career holders that
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: really of all age, I mean they do it for
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: school age kids as school age kids visit the Coca
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center, but they also do it through
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics,
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: and the careers in space and stem fields are booming
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: right now, and you can learn more about maybe getting
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: your degree on their website CCSSC dot org. While you're there,
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: also check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: this incredible collaboration that they do with the Schwobe School
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: of Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens

  Speaker 2: the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: outside the city.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Lights.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: You don't want any light interference, and you can do

  Speaker 2: Today's show brought to you by Overhead Door Company of Columbus.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: For all of your garage door needs, commercial or residential.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's time for. It's
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: always good to get maintenance on anything that has parts
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: that move and have electronics. The folks at Overhead Door
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: Company of Columbus can take care of square in that
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: away for you, and while they're there, you can always
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: ask them questions about some of the maybe cosmetic changes
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: you'd like to make to your garage door. Maybe your
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: curb appeal isn't quite what you want it to be
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: and you need some repair work done to the outside door.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Maybe you need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: it's making a noise when your garage door opens and closes.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's some sort of insulation issue that you've got
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: with colder or warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation where
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: you'd like to add a screen door to your garage
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: door system that you can put down and you can
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: use your garage space as a sort of outdoor but indoor.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: You know, if you like to work on your own
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: cars in there, or maybe you just want a little
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: man cavid you'd like to be able to open the
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in. They
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: can do that for you as well, and again they
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: of having your car trapped inside your garage and your
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: and they do those as well. Seven oh sixty five

• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Morning Show. Right after the break. All right, I told
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: you the other day about some of the superfoods that
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: maybe you're not eating, and now apparently there's a whole
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: new superfood, a new green one. Not kale, no, no, no,
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: it's grasshoppers. Researchers in Cameroon found a diet of grasshoppers
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: can boost your sleep, improve your hair, even ramp up
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: your libido. Scientists found that rats on a grasshopper diet
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: slept better, had shining your hair, and showed more romantic
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: interest compared to those on other diets. Well that's rats,
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: isn't it. How do we know these grasshoppers will do
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: all those wonderful things for us? I can tell you this,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: It's very unlikely that you're going to find out with me.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: I'm just not eating a bunch of grasshoppers. I've told
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: you before. I've eaten a couple of crickets in my day,
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: just as part of the insect festival at Oxpo Meadow's
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Environmental Learning Center. I was there ate some crickets that happened.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: I just don't see myself working a bunch of grasshoppers
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: in my diet. Sorry, Amazon says. Back to the office
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: CEO Andy Jasse has announced that corporate employees must return.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: To the office five days a.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: Week starting January second. This marks a shift from the
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: previous hybrid policy of three days a week, Jasse saying
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: before the pandemic it was not a given that folks
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: could work remotely two days a week, and that will
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: also be true moving forward. Our expectation is that people
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: will be in the office outside of extenuating circumstances. Jesse
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: believes that the change will strength than Amazon's culture, improve collaboration,
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: and help the company operate more like a startup. Look,
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: we knew this was coming. There are still some jobs
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: that are making this work, and there are some jobs
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: where quite frankly, you would be needed to be there
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: in the office. This is not one of those situations
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: where it's a one size fits all for everyone. We
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: got a number of companies based here in the Chattooje
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Valley in Columbus that have people that work from home
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: and they get the job done.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: They do what they're supposed to do.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: It's a challenge to learn how to manage people that way,
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: and some people just couldn't be bothered learning.
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: How to manage that way.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: They want to stand there and look over you. It's
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: the type X theory of management, right. They believe that
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: people don't want to work, they don't want to have
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: a job, and you got to stand there and micromanage them.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: And you know, in some cases and I guess this
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: is the premise laid out by Jesse, but to basically say, look,
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: we need people here for collaboration, we need people here
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: for the culture, and we need basically for the company
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: to operate like a startup. You know, it's siege their own.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: Each company's got to make that decision. I hope there's
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: not some companies that are throwing out the work from
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: home policy just based on I don't know how to
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: manage people that way.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: I don't know how to do it.
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Is there anything that morning coffee can't do? A new
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: survey found that more than fifty percent of Americans said
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: a good cup of coffee can be so powerful it
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: can turn a bad day into a good day. On
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: the flip side, thirty one percent said their entire day
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: can be ruined if their coffee isn't right. Twenty percent
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: even said that having fresh coffee is better than sex.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: And when it comes to where they get their daily fixed,
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: seventy percent said they prefer making it at home, twelve
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: percent said that they like to get it at a
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: cafe a cafe, and eighteen percent said that they're happy
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: with either location.
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: I go for the value and I have it at home.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: That's just what I do.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: I would prefer that all day.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, occasionally, sure, it's nice when you're out have
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: a coffee somewhere, maybe with someone, but go for efficient.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: I like the free coffee at work when I was
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: working in an office every day.
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: That was the definite way to go.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: Second best is, you know, you pay for it at home,
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: and then third best would be the really expensive stuff
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: at the cafes. A new study revealing that vaping may
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: be dulling the brains of college students. Researchers found that
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: students who vape scored lower on cognitive tests affecting their learning, memory,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: problem solving skills. Says the more they vape, the worse
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: the scores got. Students who vaped ten to twenty puffs
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: per day at scores nine percent lower than those that
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: did not vape or smoke. Those who vaped more than
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: twenty puffs a day at scores nearly fourteen percent lower.
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: According to the research.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: Solo dining is growing in popularity, and it's all about
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: owning your me time, from a gourmet meal to a
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: bite at the bar. Dining alone is now seen as
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: a form of self care and empowerment.
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: That's what they say.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: This quote coming from Jess Brohere of The New York Post.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: There's something really nice about being present and savoring food
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: that you pay for, as well as appreciating that you
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: carved out time for yourself. Sometimes I just want to
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: have a nice meal with myself, And apparently Jess is
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: not alone. According to a survey done by Open Table,
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: solo reservations increased eight percent this year. Sixty percent of
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: those surveyed said they dined alone in a sit down restaurant.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Last year that jumped to sixty eight percent for gen
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: zers and millennials. You know, I've done it. But if
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: the option is dine alone or have a meal with
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: a family member or loved one or a friend that
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: you care about out, it's also nice to you know.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: And finally, move over dating apps. Grocery stores the new
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: hotspot for young singles in Spain. Seems that the new
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: trend is finding love in the aisles. They are using
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: food to signal their interest, borrowing from the swinger culture
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: and upside down pineapple is the new sign that other
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: singles that you're not just there for the groceries ahead
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: of let us indicates that you're just looking for something
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: short term. Lentils shows that you're looking for a long
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: term relationship. People are even encouraged to bump into someone's
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: cart to show that they are interested. Okay, I'll do
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: one more. I know, I said, finally, but let's do
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: one more.
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: Is there a perfect age to get married?
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: Really? It should be about you, what feels right for you,
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: what makes sense in your life. But according to the
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: book Algorithms to Live By the Computer Science of Human Decision,
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: written by journalist Brian Christian and cognitive scientist Tom Griffiths,
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: the magic number is actually twenty six. According to the algorithm,
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: your quality of options goes down after that. That said,
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: relationship therapist Weena Cullins disputes the number, saying it's actually
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: twenty eight for women in thirty two for men, which
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: allows for both to explore who they are personally and professionally.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: And the thinking lines up with national statistics which site
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: the median age that American women get married is twenty
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: eight and thirty for men.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: It's a little bit closer, all right.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: That'll do it for this Wednesday edition of the show.
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: Thanks to our sponsors and patrons. Thank you for listening.
