Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start
- 0:06Speaker 1: your day, and you're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, third day of September. I'm Wes. Thanks for
- 0:16Speaker 2: joining me. First day back after the holiday yesterday. I
- 0:19Speaker 2: hope you were able to get you know, a little
- 0:22Speaker 2: time off or some extra pay maybe yesterday if you
- 0:26Speaker 2: were working. Some folks had to work. I hope your
- 0:28Speaker 2: employer took care of you for that. That would be nice,
- 0:31Speaker 2: wouldn't it. Some managed to get away. I hope maybe
- 0:35Speaker 2: you got some some rest, some quality rest. As we
- 0:38Speaker 2: kind of you know, it's the unofficial end of summer.
- 0:42Speaker 2: We know there's technically some more time to go, but
- 0:44Speaker 2: this is kind of where it ends. This is where
- 0:46Speaker 2: we wind it down and we start focusing on you know,
- 0:51Speaker 2: fall things fall. Things are here. You don't need me
- 0:54Speaker 2: to tell you that. You're already thinking about pumpkin spice
- 0:57Speaker 2: and you know, Halloween and all that kind of stuff.
- 1:01Speaker 2: And then we'll quickly be into you know, Thanksgiving prep
- 1:04Speaker 2: and then Christmas is here. And that's just how quickly
- 1:07Speaker 2: at all just the dominoes will fall very rapidly in time,
- 1:13Speaker 2: and very soon I'll be talking to you much more
- 1:17Speaker 2: about the next thing for me, because you have heard
- 1:20Speaker 2: me talk a lot about Dragon con that finished yesterday.
- 1:24Speaker 2: Got home yesterday after a very long weekend fun. Yes,
- 1:31Speaker 2: I had a great time. It's kind of interesting when
- 1:34Speaker 2: you go to an event like that and you're working
- 1:38Speaker 2: and also having a good time. Not that my working
- 1:43Speaker 2: isn't a good time, because it absolutely is. Most of
- 1:46Speaker 2: the time. There is the hard work things that you
- 1:48Speaker 2: have to do, and sometimes you have to roll up
- 1:50Speaker 2: your sleeves and chip in when somebody else isn't quite
- 1:53Speaker 2: getting things done. That happened a couple of times. But
- 1:56Speaker 2: it's just part of it. That's what you do. And
- 2:00Speaker 2: at this convention I have had the absolute joy of
- 2:03Speaker 2: covering for twenty four years now, and next year will
- 2:07Speaker 2: be my silver anniversary, and you know, it's just something
- 2:11Speaker 2: that I enjoy doing, being a part of helping out
- 2:16Speaker 2: the people who put it together, to make it work,
- 2:18Speaker 2: to make it such a big event for the people
- 2:20Speaker 2: who really enjoy it. All of those things come together,
- 2:24Speaker 2: and I just encourage you if you haven't ever like,
- 2:28Speaker 2: if you've thought to yourself, I got a pretty good
- 2:31Speaker 2: idea of what a convention like Dragon con is. I
- 2:35Speaker 2: can tell you that what you're imagining is not exactly right.
- 2:38Speaker 2: You may have a slight general idea of what it is,
- 2:43Speaker 2: but it's a lot more than that, and there is
- 2:45Speaker 2: something that you are a fan of that will be
- 2:48Speaker 2: represented there. I mean, if you like, you know, gaming,
- 2:52Speaker 2: if you like pop culture, movies, TV shows, if you
- 2:57Speaker 2: like literature, if you like art. Went through. My brother
- 3:02Speaker 2: Matt and I went through the art area just because
- 3:07Speaker 2: it was the second year in a row. We've just
- 3:08Speaker 2: kind of gone through there to check that out. It's
- 3:10Speaker 2: something that in twenty three years, as of last year,
- 3:13Speaker 2: I had not gone into that area very much, maybe
- 3:17Speaker 2: just quickly blew through there, but we wanted to make
- 3:20Speaker 2: sure that we were taking in that part of it.
- 3:22Speaker 2: We haven't done a lot with gaming, and that may
- 3:24Speaker 2: be something that next year. I was invited to come
- 3:26Speaker 2: play video games and I was actually so physically tired
- 3:30Speaker 2: at that point that I said, I can't go right now.
- 3:32Speaker 2: I've got to go eat and it's been a long day.
- 3:37Speaker 2: But you know, my friends were able to go and
- 3:40Speaker 2: play video games and all that, but I I had
- 3:43Speaker 2: to tap out at that point because, like I said,
- 3:46Speaker 2: it's a lot when you're doing both. But anyway, I
- 3:48Speaker 2: had a great time. I had an interview with Dominic
- 3:53Speaker 2: Monahan from the Lord of the Rings series, and the
- 3:55Speaker 2: show lost a great opportunity to talk with him. I'll
- 3:59Speaker 2: have some of that audio on the I'll put it
- 4:03Speaker 2: on the Dragon Con pregame show as a postgame interview.
- 4:08Speaker 2: I mean, that's the way I've started to kind of
- 4:10Speaker 2: handle some of these things because it kind of makes
- 4:13Speaker 2: more sense to put it as a postgame type thing
- 4:16Speaker 2: now that we're back into football season. That's where the
- 4:18Speaker 2: whole idea of it being the pregame show for the
- 4:20Speaker 2: show that comes out the weekend before. So look forward
- 4:24Speaker 2: to going through some of that and putting that stuff
- 4:27Speaker 2: up and just great. Had a chance to spend some
- 4:31Speaker 2: time with Katie Coleman, the astronaut. We had her on
- 4:34Speaker 2: the Main of Stars podcast Sean Cruisin and I did
- 4:37Speaker 2: Tuesday a week ago today. We had her on that
- 4:40Speaker 2: show when we released it. We actually recorded a little
- 4:42Speaker 2: before that. But I get to spend a little bit
- 4:44Speaker 2: of time with her and just be with a legit hero.
- 4:47Speaker 2: And again, there's real science at this thing. So maybe
- 4:50Speaker 2: that's what you're into or whatever your thing is. You'll
- 4:53Speaker 2: find it somewhere represented there and you get to see
- 4:57Speaker 2: people that are just enjoying themselves a lot, resting in
- 5:00Speaker 2: costumes and having a good time, and it's just a
- 5:02Speaker 2: fun weekend. It's fun experience. And I know it's not
- 5:06Speaker 2: for everyone, but it very well may be for you,
- 5:09Speaker 2: and if it might be, you should check it out.
- 5:11Speaker 2: It'll be worth your time, I can just tell you that.
- 5:14Speaker 2: And again, as always our coverage for the Dragon Con
- 5:18Speaker 2: pregame show, the podcast and the radio show and all
- 5:22Speaker 2: those stuff that we've done and talked about. It is
- 5:25Speaker 2: powered by Columbus State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center,
- 5:29Speaker 2: where you just might meet someone who's interviewed a couple
- 5:33Speaker 2: of astronauts in the last month or so. You know,
- 5:37Speaker 2: it's just kind of the way it goes sometimes. And
- 5:40Speaker 2: Sean and I had a great time talking with the
- 5:42Speaker 2: legend that is Katie Coleman. So we'll transition from that
- 5:46Speaker 2: into talking about the Nutcracker. Tickets are going to be
- 5:49Speaker 2: going on sale very soon. I'll be talking about returning
- 5:52Speaker 2: as Mother Ginger for that and that's the next thing
- 5:55Speaker 2: for me on my schedule, The next big thing on
- 5:58Speaker 2: my radar There'll be some other things in between, but
- 6:01Speaker 2: that's a pretty big one that I've got coming up
- 6:04Speaker 2: in early December. It's a couple of weeks sooner than
- 6:07Speaker 2: we've done it the last few years. So a chance
- 6:10Speaker 2: to kind of write post thanksgiving, a transition over to
- 6:15Speaker 2: the the nutcracker mindset and me, I gotta get up
- 6:20Speaker 2: on the stilts and I got to get up on
- 6:22Speaker 2: the stilts here, start to start working out them stilt legs.
- 6:25Speaker 2: Get my sea legs back. Okay, So here's where we are.
- 6:29Speaker 2: I want to talk about a couple of things as
- 6:32Speaker 2: we kick off this week together. And one, let me
- 6:36Speaker 2: just say this and not to spend two. This is
- 6:39Speaker 2: just me making kind of an observation when it comes
- 6:42Speaker 2: to something like Dragon Con and I won't say that
- 6:45Speaker 2: it was there wasn't the occasional reference to something political there,
- 6:49Speaker 2: because there was, it comes up. Sadly, I feel like
- 6:54Speaker 2: we have been commanded by whichever party that we lean towards,
- 7:02Speaker 2: or maybe have you know, made the head first dive
- 7:05Speaker 2: in as far as being told like we're supposed to
- 7:10Speaker 2: talk about this stuff all the time. We're just supposed
- 7:13Speaker 2: to constantly talk about it all the time. I don't
- 7:16Speaker 2: encourage you to do that. I appreciate that you spend
- 7:19Speaker 2: time with me when I get my chance to kind
- 7:21Speaker 2: of vent things or ask questions or whatever it is.
- 7:24Speaker 2: And I'll get to that in a minute, but I
- 7:26Speaker 2: just want to point out that there are some environments
- 7:28Speaker 2: still where we can check all those other things at
- 7:31Speaker 2: the door and just be around people that maybe we
- 7:33Speaker 2: don't agree with all the time and we can still
- 7:35Speaker 2: have a good time. And I applaud something like sports
- 7:40Speaker 2: most of the time. I applaud something like you know,
- 7:45Speaker 2: typically when you go maybe when you're actually watching the movie,
- 7:53Speaker 2: you can sometimes still have that experience where you're not.
- 7:55Speaker 2: Now I know that a lot of movies they're reminding
- 7:58Speaker 2: us more and more constantly. I had someone basically tell
- 8:02Speaker 2: me point blank and just in a discussion that was
- 8:05Speaker 2: being had that the people who didn't like the Star
- 8:09Speaker 2: Wars series the Acolyte were you just they were those
- 8:12Speaker 2: some of those obnoxious fans. And I said, I'll tell
- 8:14Speaker 2: you this, I'm not one of those obnoxious fans. I
- 8:16Speaker 2: just thought it was written by an eight year old.
- 8:19Speaker 2: That's just what I thought of it. It just wasn't
- 8:21Speaker 2: well done. But he's allowed his opinion, and you know,
- 8:24Speaker 2: that was it. We didn't there was no conflict, but
- 8:28Speaker 2: that was you know, So that stuff does still come up.
- 8:30Speaker 2: I understand that. But something like an event, like a
- 8:34Speaker 2: dragon Con type thing, you just get there and you
- 8:36Speaker 2: just have a good time. There's people around. You don't
- 8:39Speaker 2: have to agree with each other, you don't have to
- 8:41Speaker 2: like what each other likes. You can just be around
- 8:43Speaker 2: each other and have a good time. And we need
- 8:44Speaker 2: more of that, more of that in the world every
- 8:47Speaker 2: single day. You need a work environment, like you know,
- 8:52Speaker 2: years ago I interviewed Glenn Jacobs aka Kin the Wrestler,
- 8:56Speaker 2: and he said that one of the things he liked
- 8:58Speaker 2: about working in the WWE is that they had a
- 9:00Speaker 2: work environment where you could have any political view, nobody
- 9:02Speaker 2: hated your guts for it, and nobody was pushing each
- 9:05Speaker 2: other to vote one way or the other. There shouldn't
- 9:08Speaker 2: be that. We shouldn't have to do that. It should
- 9:10Speaker 2: just be, hey, here's what I feel about it, here's
- 9:12Speaker 2: what you feel about it, and accept the fact that
- 9:14Speaker 2: people don't always agree with you, and you just get
- 9:16Speaker 2: on with your life, get on with things. Should be
- 9:18Speaker 2: able to do that. Now, let me just dive into
- 9:21Speaker 2: this topic because I want to spend a few minutes
- 9:24Speaker 2: on it. I don't have a lot right out of
- 9:26Speaker 2: the gate this morning. Let me also tell you this,
- 9:30Speaker 2: when you're used to getting up early in the morning,
- 9:32Speaker 2: really early in the morning, and you're very you know
- 9:36Speaker 2: radio I did for a long time getting up very early.
- 9:39Speaker 2: I get up early to do this and have morning
- 9:42Speaker 2: routine with the kids. So when you're used to it,
- 9:48Speaker 2: and then you go to something that involves you staying
- 9:52Speaker 2: up very late, like Dragon Con, and then you still
- 9:55Speaker 2: wake up. You wake up and you look at the
- 9:58Speaker 2: clock and you see that there's a five in the
- 10:01Speaker 2: in the hour area, and you go, well, it's time
- 10:03Speaker 2: to get up and go to work. That's what I'm
- 10:04Speaker 2: supposed to do. That's just the way your clock is programmed.
- 10:07Speaker 2: I'm not telling anybody that's retired military anything they don't
- 10:11Speaker 2: already know, because that's that's the way they're still typically wired,
- 10:14Speaker 2: I think, even into retirement many of them. But what
- 10:17Speaker 2: I want to talk about, I don't know if I
- 10:18Speaker 2: got time to play all this. I want to play
- 10:20Speaker 2: a good chunk of it, though, And this is what
- 10:22Speaker 2: I wan to talking about today, is this Kamala Harris
- 10:27Speaker 2: is getting criticized for her foghorn leghorn thing that she
- 10:31Speaker 2: did at this event. And that's the first clip I'm
- 10:33Speaker 2: going to play. It's a series of Kamala Harris doing
- 10:37Speaker 2: a fake accents, just one fake accent after the next,
- 10:43Speaker 2: and trying to cater to whatever audience she's in front of.
- 10:46Speaker 2: We'll start with this clip, this fog horn leghorn type
- 10:49Speaker 2: thing that she was doing.
- 10:50Speaker 1: You better thank a union member for sick leave.
- 10:53Speaker 3: You better thank a union member for paid leave, thank
- 10:57Speaker 3: a union member for vacation time.
- 11:00Speaker 2: That's a chicken hawk over that, because.
- 11:07Speaker 3: What we know. Let's just get through the next sixty
- 11:11Speaker 3: four days and you all helped us win in twenty
- 11:19Speaker 3: twenty and we don't do it again in twenty twenty four. Will, Yes,
- 11:26Speaker 3: we will. So let's get you know, the one thing
- 11:31Speaker 3: about all of us is we liked hard work is
- 11:35Speaker 3: good work. Hard work is good work.
- 11:39Speaker 1: The thing that we like about.
- 11:40Speaker 3: Hard work is we have fun doing hard work.
- 11:45Speaker 2: Well, I think people got the by this is a
- 11:49Speaker 2: woman raised primarily in California, Berkeley, California, and Montreal and
- 11:58Speaker 2: then come to Georgia and start throwing out boy, I'm
- 12:02Speaker 2: very southern I'm very Southern, not just Southern, but also
- 12:07Speaker 2: a black Southern. That's who she is. There's a phoniness
- 12:13Speaker 2: that's represented well there. And I just want to contrast
- 12:17Speaker 2: the two people that we have running for president, and
- 12:19Speaker 2: I hear from a lot of people that go, man,
- 12:21Speaker 2: here we go again. We got two candidates that just
- 12:24Speaker 2: aren't worth anything at all, and we've done it again.
- 12:27Speaker 2: We've nominated two people that aren't great. Well. A few
- 12:31Speaker 2: factors that come into all of that. First of all,
- 12:35Speaker 2: the reason, one of the main reasons that Donald Trump
- 12:38Speaker 2: is even in this at this point is because when
- 12:42Speaker 2: Hillary Clinton was the candidate in twenty sixteen, there were
- 12:45Speaker 2: folks on the left that thought, there's no way Donald
- 12:49Speaker 2: Trump could beat Hillary Clinton. So let's help him get nominated,
- 12:52Speaker 2: let's help him get into a place, into a position
- 12:54Speaker 2: where he could be the nominee. And then he was,
- 12:57Speaker 2: and they thought, ha ha, there's no way he can win.
- 13:00Speaker 2: And then he won, and then they're still really really
- 13:04Speaker 2: angry about it, really angry about it. So that's part
- 13:09Speaker 2: of what we have to kind of at least acknowledge
- 13:12Speaker 2: at this point, is that there is some responsibility that
- 13:15Speaker 2: should go there. The left also got herschel Walker nominated,
- 13:19Speaker 2: and they sent it race. They did their best to
- 13:22Speaker 2: make sure that he was going to be the candidate
- 13:23Speaker 2: because they knew he would be I think easier to
- 13:27Speaker 2: beat just because of some of his past things that
- 13:30Speaker 2: were you know, he had some mental health problems. They
- 13:34Speaker 2: wanted to jump on that, and they had their ads
- 13:36Speaker 2: made well and truly before they even had a nominee,
- 13:40Speaker 2: they were ready to go. So if you help the
- 13:43Speaker 2: other side nominate someone that you consider to be bad
- 13:46Speaker 2: because you think they're a good candidate, then you're probably
- 13:49Speaker 2: going to and then you yourself nominate bad candidates, you're
- 13:53Speaker 2: going to be in a position where there's going to
- 13:54Speaker 2: be too bad options. So that's something to think about, Okay.
- 13:58Speaker 2: And it's not to say Republican haven't played this game too.
- 14:01Speaker 2: Both sides have done this. But there's some really good
- 14:04Speaker 2: examples kind of lately that we can use for that.
- 14:08Speaker 2: And I'm just saying that because there are many on
- 14:11Speaker 2: the left still hate Donald Trump. There's some people on
- 14:13Speaker 2: the right still don't want to vote for him. I
- 14:15Speaker 2: understand that there's some people on the left that have
- 14:17Speaker 2: come around and said, you know what, least we had
- 14:19Speaker 2: money when he was president. But here's the thing I
- 14:21Speaker 2: want to point out about these two candidates is you've
- 14:23Speaker 2: got Donald Trump. Who is I think the last thing
- 14:28Speaker 2: that you could call him is phony. You know who
- 14:30Speaker 2: he is, you know what he's about. When you think
- 14:32Speaker 2: about who he is, what he stands for, what he represents,
- 14:35Speaker 2: you know who he is. You know what he's going
- 14:38Speaker 2: to say, you know how he's going to say it.
- 14:41Speaker 2: You know how he's going to carry himself. Is he
- 14:43Speaker 2: is he riddled with hyperbole when he talks? Sure? Absolutely?
- 14:47Speaker 2: Is he going to tell you big giant, fat lies
- 14:50Speaker 2: that you know, claim that he did something in the
- 14:52Speaker 2: military that he didn't do. Is he going to stand
- 14:55Speaker 2: up and put on an accent? Is he going to
- 14:57Speaker 2: speak in front of I don't know, a crowd of
- 15:00Speaker 2: you know, blacks for Trump and start throwing out black
- 15:03Speaker 2: southernisms to try to convince them that he really understands them. No,
- 15:08Speaker 2: he talks the same way in front of every hodence.
- 15:10Speaker 2: You can hate it. You have every right to hate
- 15:12Speaker 2: what he says, how he says it, that's fine, but
- 15:15Speaker 2: you have to admit that he's genuine. He's the same
- 15:18Speaker 2: guy no matter who he's speaking to. Who no matter
- 15:21Speaker 2: what the audience is, that's who he is. When he
- 15:25Speaker 2: spoke with a comedian Theo Vaughn on his podcast, it's
- 15:29Speaker 2: the same Donald Trump. Was he opening up about things
- 15:32Speaker 2: about his brother and father's addictions and things. Absolutely, you
- 15:37Speaker 2: were seeing a little different side of him. But it's
- 15:39Speaker 2: the same guy all the way through. He's anything but phony. Okay,
- 15:47Speaker 2: that's just who he is. We've had a chance to
- 15:50Speaker 2: get to know. Now. Maybe there was a time before
- 15:53Speaker 2: he got into politics where you might have thought, eh,
- 15:57Speaker 2: he's a little fake. He's Donald. He's putting on a show.
- 16:00Speaker 2: He's putting on an act. But we've seen him. We've
- 16:03Speaker 2: seen him time and time again. We saw a guy
- 16:04Speaker 2: who ran for president in twenty sixteen and said these
- 16:07Speaker 2: are the things I'm gonna do when I'm in office,
- 16:10Speaker 2: the first things I'm going to do the first few
- 16:11Speaker 2: months in office, or these things, and he was just
- 16:14Speaker 2: checking them off the list. This rattled down the list.
- 16:18Speaker 2: I don't know that any president has ever done him
- 16:20Speaker 2: that fast. Typically you have to wait until they're going, well,
- 16:23Speaker 2: if you reelect us, this is what we're gonna do,
- 16:27Speaker 2: Which is weird because that's basically what Kamala Harris is saying, now,
- 16:31Speaker 2: if you reelect me, would make me president, I'm going
- 16:35Speaker 2: to fix all the problems that I'm not fixing right
- 16:38Speaker 2: now and as part of the administration that screwed everything
- 16:41Speaker 2: up over the last three years. But if if you
- 16:45Speaker 2: elect me, I'm going to let out my super secret
- 16:48Speaker 2: plan to fix everything. That's what I'm gonna do. Phony
- 16:53Speaker 2: versus someone who maybe you don't like him, but he's
- 16:56Speaker 2: not phony. At least you know who he is. You
- 16:59Speaker 2: don't know who she is. We really don't. I'm sorry
- 17:02Speaker 2: you might think you do. You don't know who she is.
- 17:06Speaker 2: You don't know what she's about. She hasn't represented that
- 17:08Speaker 2: in any way We don't know. I mean she has
- 17:10Speaker 2: in the past when she was running as an actual candidate,
- 17:14Speaker 2: as somebody who thought she could say no fracking, as
- 17:18Speaker 2: someone who thought she could say exactly what she felt
- 17:22Speaker 2: and stood for on a number of issues. That she
- 17:26Speaker 2: now says, no, no, no, no, that's not really that's not
- 17:29Speaker 2: really what I wanted. That's not who I am. She's
- 17:32Speaker 2: saying what she thinks you want to hear her say,
- 17:37Speaker 2: and she's saying it in the dialect or with emphasis
- 17:44Speaker 2: in a way that she thinks that you want to
- 17:46Speaker 2: hear it. She stands in front of an audience that
- 17:50Speaker 2: thinks that maybe she should be more Indian. You know,
- 17:54Speaker 2: she's going to give them that side of her. She's
- 17:57Speaker 2: in front of an audience and she thinks they probably
- 17:59Speaker 2: want me to be a little more black. She's going
- 18:01Speaker 2: to give them that. She's proven that. That's what we
- 18:03Speaker 2: just heard her do for several minutes, multiple minutes. That's
- 18:07Speaker 2: what you're gonna get from her, and that's who she is.
- 18:11Speaker 2: So it's phony versus the guy that we know who
- 18:14Speaker 2: he is. Maybe you don't like him, but is it
- 18:18Speaker 2: better to know and also know that you're going to
- 18:21Speaker 2: probably have more money in your pocket and be able
- 18:24Speaker 2: to feed your family or do you want four more
- 18:28Speaker 2: years of the people who ruined the economy and did
- 18:31Speaker 2: everything they could to make sure that you know, the client,
- 18:35Speaker 2: the climate scientists were taken care of, but not the
- 18:39Speaker 2: middle class. Today's show brought to you by Columbus State

- 19:33Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 19:38Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 19:40Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 19:44Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
- 19:49Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
- 19:53Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center and the new season of Music

- 20:13Speaker 2: and you can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night

- 20:29Speaker 2: Science Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you
- 20:34Speaker 2: by Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your
- 20:36Speaker 2: garage door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular
- 20:43Speaker 2: maintenance that it's time for. It's always good to get
- 20:46Speaker 2: maintenance on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 20:50Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 20:54Speaker 2: care of squaring that away for you, and while they're there,
- 20:56Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
- 20:59Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
- 21:02Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
- 21:05Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
- 21:08Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
- 21:10Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
- 21:14Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
- 21:18Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather, sometimes
- 21:21Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
- 21:25Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
- 21:27Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
- 21:30Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
- 21:33Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
- 21:36Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
- 21:38Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
- 21:41Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
- 21:43Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
- 21:45Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
- 21:48Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
- 21:51Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
- 21:54Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
- 21:57Speaker 2: as well. Seven oh six orty five eight to forty
- 22:00Speaker 2: five hundred seven of six three five eight forty five
- 22:03Speaker 2: hundred O dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show.
- 22:07Speaker 2: Right after the break well, it was estimated that about
- 22:19Speaker 2: sixty three percent of Americans barbecued grilled out, if you will,
- 22:23Speaker 2: over the weekend. And they say, basically, it was time
- 22:29Speaker 2: to get in that last eight hundred and eighteen hot
- 22:30Speaker 2: dogs eating every second between Memorial Day and Labor Daverom.
- 22:34Speaker 2: We talked about that. Back at Memorial Day, how many
- 22:37Speaker 2: would be eaten? There were a lot, a lot of
- 22:39Speaker 2: hot dogs eating. Don't know, I didn't I didn't need
- 22:42Speaker 2: I didn't need very many. This year between that period,
- 22:45Speaker 2: I had some. I didn't need that many, you know,
- 22:48Speaker 2: other than the occasional trip you know to dingle Wood
- 22:51Speaker 2: get a scramble dog, but not a whole lot. They
- 22:55Speaker 2: said about twenty one percent of Americans either drove or
- 22:57Speaker 2: flew somewhere for the Labor Day weekend. Yeah, I was
- 23:00Speaker 2: part of that group. You got to count a Dragon
- 23:03Speaker 2: Con right and oh, by the way, seventy two thousand
- 23:09Speaker 2: was about the estimate for how many people attended. Two
- 23:12Speaker 2: hundred and ten thousand dollars. Dragon Con, by the way,
- 23:15Speaker 2: raised for the Arthritis Foundation. It's not just a fun
- 23:19Speaker 2: convention and the time to go experience some cool things.
- 23:22Speaker 2: It was also, you know, they always have a charity partner.
- 23:26Speaker 2: This year it was the Arthritis Foundation. So how about that.
- 23:31Speaker 2: So as you're getting ready to transition into fall, because
- 23:34Speaker 2: this is happening now, I think we got cooler weather
- 23:36Speaker 2: coming by the end of the week. Here in the
- 23:38Speaker 2: Chattahoochee Valley, which is pretty exciting. And they say people
- 23:41Speaker 2: start to feel a bit down. You got carefree, fun summer,
- 23:45Speaker 2: and then that ends and things start to you know,
- 23:48Speaker 2: it's like darker and bleaker and cooler and fewer insects
- 23:53Speaker 2: and it's wonderful so for some of us, for some
- 23:56Speaker 2: not so much. And they say a more rigid work
- 23:59Speaker 2: schedule with the holidays, you know, leading up to those
- 24:03Speaker 2: back to school for many. And they say, basically to
- 24:07Speaker 2: ways that you can beat the seasonal slump, they say, exercising,
- 24:11Speaker 2: spending time outdoors will help. It's a lot easier to
- 24:14Speaker 2: spend time outdoors when it's you know, not one hundred
- 24:17Speaker 2: and seven degrees in the shade. They say, also, embracing
- 24:21Speaker 2: cozy vibes of fall can be a good mood booster, so,
- 24:25Speaker 2: you know, warm blankets, maybe you're into the pumpkin spice thing,
- 24:30Speaker 2: fall decorations, some of those recipes and things, and they say,
- 24:34Speaker 2: try to think of it not as the end of
- 24:37Speaker 2: your summer fun, but think of it as the beginning
- 24:40Speaker 2: of a whole new season. That's what they say. That's
- 24:44Speaker 2: not necessarily what I say. I say, think of it
- 24:46Speaker 2: as the beginning of wonderful fall as the weather changes.
- 24:50Speaker 2: And it's really nice. Speaking of changing seasons and getting
- 24:56Speaker 2: into Halloween mindset, have you seen this? The folk folks
- 25:00Speaker 2: at Yetti and Liquid Death have teamed up to create
- 25:07Speaker 2: the ultimate Halloween party accessory. It is and they say,
- 25:12Speaker 2: if you got to get one of these for your
- 25:16Speaker 2: for your party, your Halloween party, it is. And I
- 25:20Speaker 2: guess so. Liquid Death is a canned water brand, and
- 25:24Speaker 2: of course Yetti has the coolers and the cups and
- 25:26Speaker 2: all that stuff. So they've created the casket cooler. It's
- 25:30Speaker 2: a casket shaped ice chest and they say it'll keep
- 25:34Speaker 2: your drinks cold for an eternity. They made one, so
- 25:40Speaker 2: you have to bid on it. You got to get
- 25:43Speaker 2: the one and only version of this. It's been auctioned
- 25:49Speaker 2: off to somebody for tens of thousands of dollars. But
- 25:56Speaker 2: if you want to, you know, look up the person
- 26:00Speaker 2: and who bought it and try to outbit like, you know,
- 26:03Speaker 2: buy it from them. That's what you'd have to do
- 26:05Speaker 2: to get it or make your own. This is a
- 26:08Speaker 2: beast of a cooler. I mean, I mean, I'm guessing
- 26:12Speaker 2: this is actual size of an actual casket. It is okay. Yeah,
- 26:17Speaker 2: here's actually people standing around it. I thought it was
- 26:20Speaker 2: a stunt at first. I thought this was, you know,
- 26:23Speaker 2: like Elon Musk selling flamethrowers. No, it's an actual and
- 26:28Speaker 2: you should look it up. The actual liquid death yety
- 26:31Speaker 2: casket cooler. It would be great at a party. I
- 26:35Speaker 2: just don't know how you spend you know, fifty grand
- 26:37Speaker 2: or whatever they spend on this thing. It seems it
- 26:39Speaker 2: seems to have been much all right. Finally, we who
- 26:44Speaker 2: doesn't love the wonderful taste of bacon? And I suppose
- 26:49Speaker 2: I don't really eat it because I don't eat a
- 26:51Speaker 2: lot of don't I don't eat a lot of calories
- 26:54Speaker 2: in the morning whenever I if I'm not fasting in
- 26:57Speaker 2: the morning, sometimes I fast in the morning. I have
- 26:59Speaker 2: my coffee and that's it it. But cinnamon toast crunch
- 27:05Speaker 2: popular breakfast cereal obviously, and the kids love it. I
- 27:11Speaker 2: think some adults love it that maybe grew up on it. Well,
- 27:14Speaker 2: they've teamed up with the folks at Hormel to create
- 27:19Speaker 2: the Cinnamon Toast Crunch black Label Cinna Dust Bacon Limited Edition,
- 27:27Speaker 2: and it's cinnamon toast crunch bacon. I mean you know
- 27:32Speaker 2: I would try it. I gotta admit I would try.
- 27:34Speaker 2: I would give it a shot. I don't know that
- 27:38Speaker 2: I would like it, but I would try it. It's
- 27:43Speaker 2: a real thing. It sounds both interesting and disgusting at
- 27:48Speaker 2: the same time. So I don't know, but it sounds
- 27:50Speaker 2: to me like a high calorie as if bacon, you know,
- 27:55Speaker 2: and you eat when you eat bacon, you know what
- 27:56Speaker 2: you're getting into when you eat a breakfast cereal that
- 27:59Speaker 2: has a lot of sh And I'll be honest, if
- 28:01Speaker 2: I eat a sugary breakfast cereal, and I know you're
- 28:04Speaker 2: gonna say what everybody says, it destroys the roof of
- 28:07Speaker 2: your mouth. But I'm like cap'n Crunch. I always liked
- 28:11Speaker 2: fruity pebbles, but again, it's just it's so sweet, and
- 28:15Speaker 2: I've just gotten to the point where I can't really
- 28:16Speaker 2: do that first thing in the morning. But I would
- 28:20Speaker 2: try it. I would give it a shot. I don't know.
- 28:22Speaker 2: I don't know when is it gonna be in stores.
- 28:24Speaker 2: It doesn't say, but I suppose coming soon to a
- 28:29Speaker 2: store near you, And I don't know. Maybe I hope
- 28:33Speaker 2: it's not something you have to order off their website
- 28:35Speaker 2: and It's probably already gone, but anyway, keep an eye
- 28:38Speaker 2: out for it on the Bacon Ale. That'll do it
- 28:42Speaker 2: for this Tuesday edition of the show. Thanks to our
- 28:44Speaker 2: sponsors and patrons. Thank you for listening. I'll catch you
