  Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews you need to start
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to the Wes Carroll Morning Show.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, 14th day of October. I'm Wes. Thanks for
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: joining me two weeks deep into October. Another Burr month
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: practically gone. It's happening fast, folks. It's happening fast. It
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: always does. This time of the year kind of zips
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: on by, doesn't it? So yesterday, I didn't talk about
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: this yesterday morning because it was a lot going on
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: yesterday morning as far as knowing what I needed to
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: do yesterday. And I just didn't really get into the
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: specifics of.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Health thing that was going on and I was hoping
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: that I was not going to need to address anything
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: to do with this particular health thing because it's a
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: procedure that I've had done before and I thought you
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: know maybe it would be minimal recovery on it it
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: wasn't the first time but this was the second time
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I was having a procedure done and I I feel
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: like because I think to me, I don't quite sound
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: my normal self because of what I had done yesterday.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: And I thought, well, I should explain that before I
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: get into the show and how much I'm able to
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: record this morning. I don't know. I'm going to see
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: what I can do. I'm going to try to get
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: into it. I am medicated. I am on a stronger
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: type of medication. So I'm just dealing with that right now.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: And the particular procedure relates to the things that I've
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: had going on with my neck. I did have a
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: neck surgery a little over a year ago, about 13
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: months ago. That was a different part of my neck
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: that was being worked on. I have two different issues
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: with my neck. And the particular surgery I had 13
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: months ago was related to some damage with my spine
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: and my neck. And I just had that procedure done
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: after having had something else done six months or so
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: earlier in the year last year. And that was an
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: RFA procedure, radiofrequency ablation on a different part of my neck.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: And I thought that's what my issue was the whole time.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: That's what I thought I was dealing with. And then
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: had that procedure done. And then that was followed up by, like,
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: the pain started to come back. It's not a, you
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: don't do an RFA procedure and then them say to you,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: you're fixed. It's, it's sort of something that it's almost
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: like a bandaid of sorts where, uh, they do some
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: things to minimize the pain for you and it can
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: take in, in what I was told by my doctor
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: who is fantastic. Um, and I'll get to him in
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: a second. Um, but the, um, the RFA that's done, um,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: he basically tells you up front, he's like, this might
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: last six months. It might last two years. Some people
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: never have to come again. And he's like the realistic
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: probability here, you know, somewhere between six months and a year,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: the first time you have it done, you have it
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: done a second time at some stage and, you know,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: maybe it lasts longer. And that would be the goal.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: I can't pretend I fully understand everything that was happening
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: each time I've had this done. Um, but I, I
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: knew that we were getting to a point where it
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: was time to do this again. So just for the
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: timeline for it, and it's not that you need to
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: know all of my medical history, but I'm, I'm comfortable
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: sharing it because, um, I think it's one of those
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: things where I've got, um, for the full disclosure, I've
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: got some arthritis and facet joints in my neck and
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: it was causing pain for me for like a decade.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: and we thought I was just having migraines. It presents
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: itself similar to migraines. My primary care doctor had told
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: me when I went in and said, I get these migraines,
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: and he gave me medicine for migraines, that medicine would
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: work like it was treating a migraine. The pain gradually
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: became more frequent, and it was just something that I
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: was dealing with for about 10 years. Was it from
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: playing soccer? Much too late into life. I don't know.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Not everybody has this problem. For me, it was a
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: problem that presented itself. I've had issues with my hips
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: from playing soccer as an adult and trying to extend
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: that for as long as possible. And possibly that's what
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: was going on here with the arthritis in my neck.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: So I met with my doctor. His name is Dr. Shah.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Veritas is the name of his pain management practice. And Dr.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Shah was the one I met with. And he said, look,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: you got this arthritis in the facet joints. We can
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: do this procedure. And he did it. And that was,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: I guess I said last year, but I guess we're
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: getting close to two years from me having that done. Anyway.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: The pain came back, or so I thought. I was
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: starting to have neck pain again. And then that's when
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: I went in and the doctor said, I was then
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: sent to specifically a spine surgeon. And that's Eric Westerlund
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: at Houston. He did the neck surgery on me. I
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: documented all that on the show, talked about my recovery
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: from that. That was September a year ago. Part of
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: all that for me, too, was me trying to get
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: back where I could get ready to do the Nutcracker again,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: getting on stilts and all of that for the recovery.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: And kudos to Westerlin, his staff, for getting me there.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Hyvie Holt, his PA, and everyone on his staff there
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: getting me back and ready to go for the Nutcracker
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: last year. I did not want to miss a show,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: and thankfully I did not have to miss a show,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: and I appreciate them for that. So we did that,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: and then some time passed, and I started to have
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: more pain in my neck again. And that's when I
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: came to realize, well, wait a minute. What's going on here,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: I guess, is Westerlin fixed the issue in my spine
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: with that surgery. And then I ended up back with Dr.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Shaw at Veritas at his office, and it's like, we
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: kind of connected the dots here that the RFA had
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: worn off. So needing another RFA was coming. I've done
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: some injections, some steroids and things to help. But in
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: this case, I needed to do this procedure again. And
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I can just tell you this, RFA for me the
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: first time, it was very painful for a few days.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: And then I got relief before the other issue with
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: my spine presented itself. Or it was there the whole
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: time and I didn't realize it. I don't know. But,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: you know, you fix the, it's like when you have
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: a really good mechanic. They're fixing the easy things first,
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: the logical things. It's Occam's razor. You're going for that
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: easy solution. And each time they look for an easy solution,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: they found an easier solution before ultimately it was like, oh,
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: you need neck surgery. So anyway, yesterday morning I went
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: back to Veritas to see Dr. Shaw and his staff there,
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: and they got me squared away with another RFA. And
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: I did that after the show yesterday. A lot of pain.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: And I know this is going to be the case
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: for a couple days. It's already a little better than
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: it was yesterday at this stage. Rough day yesterday. just
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: recovery in it and just a lot of pain. I
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: had to go back and ultimately wear like a soft collar,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: but it's the, that I had from my other surgery,
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: but it's the nature of this procedure. And all I
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: can say ultimately is if you're dealing with like a
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: chronic pain, like I was for all those years, I
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: wish that I had done all this stuff sooner, probably
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: would have been an easier recovery. in my thirties and forties,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: you know, it w it would have been something that
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: I could have, you know, dealt with that much earlier, but,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: but it is what it is. It, it, it played
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: out the way that it did. I wouldn't have had Dr.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Shaw for one. Uh, and I really appreciate him. I
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: appreciate his staff. When I have an issue, I can
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: reach out to them and they quickly get back to
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: me and come up with a solution. If they're at yesterday,
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: when I was in a lot of pain, You know,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: we took care of getting me properly medicated a little
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: bit more yesterday. Not something I like to do. I'm
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: not a narcotics guy. I don't like to do that.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Anytime I've had hip surgeries, I just try my best
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: to get off of that medication as fast as possible.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: It's just not me. I don't like feeling out of control.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: I don't like feeling I remember the first time I
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: met with Shaw and he was like, look, I don't
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: like to give pain medicine out. And I was like, well,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: we're perfect because I don't like to take pain medicine. So,
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: but anyway, I just kudos to Dr. Shaw. And if
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: you're dealing with something like this, I can just tell you,
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: if you're looking for pain management, whether it's it's, you know,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: something in your back or your neck, Dr. Shaw, and
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: he does so many other things as well. Uh, but
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Veritas is your place. As far as I'm concerned, I'm
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: not getting paid to do this endorsement. I'm just giving
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: an endorsement for my experience. Dr. Westerlund, fantastic surgeon. uh, at, uh,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: Houston for, uh, for what he did for me, for
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: my spine. And, uh, and Ivy Holt, who's a personal friend, uh,
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: they've all become friends, right? You know, you become, and
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: I was telling, uh, some of the staff at Shaw's
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: office yesterday, like we're all family now. Um, cause you're
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: going in, you're doing these procedures, they're helping you, you know,
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: get undressed and dressed and all that. And it's like,
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: at this point we're family. Um, but I, uh, greatly
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: appreciate all that they've all done for me. And I
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: say all this, I wasn't really intending to go this
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: long about this particular thing. Um, but it is what
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: it is. This is where we are. And I don't know, like,
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: I feel like, I feel like maybe my, my, uh,
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: my energy is picking back up. I was just concerned
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: about what the rest of this week's going to be like.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: So if at any point I sound like I'm dragging
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: this week, uh, just, uh, understand that that's what I've
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: been dealing with. One quick thing I want to talk
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: about today, as far as topics go, and I saw
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: this story. So Gavin Newsom, who keeps telling us he's
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: not running for president, everything's pointing to he is running
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: for president, has done another thing here that's clearly marking
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: that he's getting ready to run for president. The latest
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: thing about not running for president, of course, was he
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: said if Kamala Harris runs, he won't run out of
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: respect for her. We all discussed this right here on
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: the show that we knew that was just a sign
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: that at some point we were going to get an
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: indicator that she was not going to be running for president,
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: that that would come out. Now, that hasn't happened yet.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: It seems that her team is working towards her running again.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Her husband has said it's not something that he wants
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: to see happen. There's people who previously worked for her
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: on her staff that said she's not running again. It's
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: not going to happen. So... I feel like this latest
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: bit of news is another indicator that Gavin Newsom is
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: getting ready to run again. And that's this California AB 2599.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: This is signed in in California by Gavin Newsom. And
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: it basically says that companies that have over $ 100 million
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: in annual receipts, they have to submit receipts. Sworn affidavits
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: by 2029, and it basically says if you have a company,
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: a corporation that has some sort of historical tie to
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: chattel slavery, all this has to come out. Interesting timing.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Got to have this out by 2029. This is one
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: of those things where it's kind of to push it
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: in motion, push it in motion past the next presidential election.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: And ultimately the, but it still doesn't have to get
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: done by then. So it's going to be something that
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: if someone who was the governor of California wanted to
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: brag about this and spike the football, look what I did.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: I signed this, you know, that he has time to
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: do that before it even happens. So another indicator that
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: that's probably where things are headed for Gavin Newsom, the candidate.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: I do think it would be interesting, and I understand
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: where we do have some companies that do have ties
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: to it that have a long-term legacy of profits and
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: things that were built on from that. I don't know
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: where all this falls into the, this is a move
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: towards reparations thing. I do think... Um, if, if that's
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: the move here and that's what's going on and you're saying, well,
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: companies have to show their ties as a company towards this.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: I do think if, if ultimately, uh, the, the people
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: in California are saying, well, reparations is the goal. I
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: think anyone that receives reparations, uh, maybe should have some
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: sort of a DNA check as well that could say, well,
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: you know, ancestry that did experience this. I think that's,
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: I know that's been brought up before, but if this
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: is the angle, if this is the conversation that we're
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: having to say, you know, this is a step towards
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: showing the companies that profited and try to get those
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: companies to then turn around and pay back to the people.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: I just think that anyone, you know, you have people
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: who have come into the country in the last, their
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: families have immigrated in the last, you that are in
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: this conversation saying, well, hey, wait a minute, we deserve this. So,
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: you know, I just think it's a conversation to have.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: I think it's something to think about. Speaking of conversations,
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: I want to mention this too, because this is another
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: thing that we need to discuss. We are now into
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: the early voting stage in the state of Georgia. We
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: do this show out of Georgia, out of the state
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: of Georgia. So we're now into the early voting stage
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: that's begun this week, started yesterday. Um, so as far
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: as we're, we're now less than a month, right? We're,
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: we're down to what, three weeks or whatever it is,
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: three and a half, uh, three, was it three weeks yesterday?
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: We're down to that phase. We're, we're counting down the
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: days until we get to, um, the, uh, uh, election
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: day for the midterms. So make your plan to vote.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: Get in there and vote. Do your thing. I see
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: the people that always do that. Everybody has to vote. No,
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: not everybody has to vote. That's not. I don't even
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: encourage that. If you don't know what you're talking about
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: and you're not informed as a potential voter, I don't
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: think you have to vote. I think you're perfectly capable
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: of not voting if you don't really know what you're
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: voting about and you don't understand. I encourage everybody to
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: get informed so that they can go in and vote
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: and make an informed, educated vote, whichever direction you decide
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: to vote, whatever the party is, whatever the, if you're
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: voting party line, if you're voting for candidates, understand who
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: the candidates are and what they represent. But we're in
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: that phase of this whole process. This is going to
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: be more and more conversations we're going to be having
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: about this in the coming weeks. And just one more thing,
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: just a reminder, Facebook, Has this fantastic option where if
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: the people that you know are already lobbing darts and
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: taking shots, you can always hide posts from people for
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: 30 days. That's an option in there. You just go
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: in and they've said something that you don't want to
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: have to see or, you know, because we get bombarded
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: with this stuff. I saw a video the other day
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: of the lead singer for Metallica. And Heathfield, Heathfield, uh,
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: blanking on his, uh, James, uh, Heathfield, right? Now I
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: want to look it up just to make sure, but
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: I saw him, uh, was talking, uh, at a concert
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: and he was talking about, uh, the fact that at
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: their concerts, um, they don't, um, they're not there for politics. Heathfield.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: I know I was putting too many letters in there. Um,
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: saw Metallica once, probably told that story before. Anyway, didn't
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: see the whole concert, but that was my choice. Um, but, uh,
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: he was basically saying, we're not here to do politics.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: We're here to give you a break and an escape
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: from politics. Kudos to that. I'm sure there are people
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: who are angry about that announcement and decision that they've
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: made as a band. Um, But I think that we
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: need more of that. We need more escapism. We need
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: movies to be escapism. We need music to be escapism sometimes.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: And unfortunately, when musicians and actors and every artist of every,
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: you know, athletes feel like they have to step into
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: the foray of politics for everything that they do, you know,
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: we're bombarded with it.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: So, yeah.
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: You may not want to unfollow or delete a friend
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: on social media. You just want them to like shut
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: up for 30 days. You have that option. You can just,
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: you know, or you can unfollow them completely. But this
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: is that window. Now you can go ahead and set
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: it up to not follow them for 30 days and
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: not see their posts. And, you know, then they miss
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: out in that regard because, you know, they're probably not
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: going to change anything. You're going to vote anyway. Today's
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: show brought to you by Columbus State University's Coca-Cola Space
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: Science Center, inspiring and educating the youth and future STEM
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: leaders and STEM career holders. that really of all ages.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, they do it for school-age kids as school-age
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: kids visit the Coca-Cola Space Science Center, but they also
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: do it through their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics,
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: and the careers in space and STEM fields are booming
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: right now. And you can learn more about maybe getting
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: your degree on their website, ccssc.org. While you're there... Also
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got this
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: incredible collaboration that they do with the Schwob School of
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: Music from Columbus State University called Music Under the Dome.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert. experience that you can get anywhere else.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia?
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca-Cola
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Space Science Center. And the new season of Music Under
• 20:11

• 20:16
  Speaker 2: also check out when the next astronomy night's coming up
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: where you can get outside. Sometimes you do it at
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: the Coca-Cola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get somewhere outside
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: the city lights. You don't want any light interference, and
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: you can do that as well. Upcoming astronomy night events
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: also on their website. It's CCSSC.org. As Sean Cruzan says, CharlieCharlieSamSamCharlie.org.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: I just remind you that it stands for Coca-Cola Space
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: Science Center, CCSSC.org. Today's show brought to you by Overhead
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage door needs,
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: commercial needs, or residential, maybe you have regular maintenance that
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance on
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: anything that has parts that move and have electronics. The
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take care
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: of squaring that away for you. And while they're there,
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather. Sometimes
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: door to your garage door system. that you can put
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: sort of outdoor, but indoor, you know, if you like
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: you just want a little man cave that you'd like
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: to be able to open the door up and not
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: invite all the insects in. They can do that for
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: you as well. And again, they do after hours calls.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help. And they do
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: those as well. 706-358-4500, 706-358-4500, odccolumbus.com. More West Carroll Morning
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: Show right after the break. Well, the ongoing saga that
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: is Grand Theft Auto 6 continues on. As the game
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: is finally going to come out in November, next month
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: it's finally going to come out, I guess. It's almost
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: like when you talk about a rocket launch and you go,
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: you know, weather permitting. It always feels like you have
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: to have some level of, you know, weather permitting when
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: it comes to this game. But anyway. So the physical
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: box edition for Grand Theft Auto 6 already sold out
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: major retail sites like Amazon ahead of the November launch.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: So the collectible box basically just contains a digital download
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: code and not an actual game disc. Fans rushed to
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: buy the box to display on their game shelves. Amazon
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: listing both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox versions online. as
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: currently unavailable with no guarantee of new stock before the
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: official November 19th release day. I get that. It's weird
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: that they are selling a box that has a digital code.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: That was part of the reason that they started, well,
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: the reason they gave that it was going to save,
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: you know, when it came to environmental reasons and all that,
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: you don't have to all this waste. So, but we
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: know really it was all about, well, no, you're going
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: to eventually just be buying a download code that we
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: can take away from you at any point if we
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: don't like what you're doing with the game or whatever,
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: whatever all those deals are with the games. But I
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: get wanting the box. I can appreciate that if this
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: is a game that you've really been excited about. And
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: I'm sure those boxes are probably going to be reselling
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: for a lot, just the box alone.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: So.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: According to a new study, most physical trading card packs
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: fail to disclose the real odds of winning rare or
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: valuable cards. Researchers examined 50 popular collectible card packs across
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: major brands like Pokemon and sports cards found that 80%
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: offered no information about the probabilities of finding something valuable.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: This ends up being a big deal because collectors are
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: spending money to chase rare valuable cards, which is similar
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: to gambling. The researchers suggest that some regulations and transparency
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: guidelines should be put into place to protect consumers. I mean,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: just go to one of the gambling sites and gamble
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: on it. How about that? That's pretty much everywhere. Scientists
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: have discovered that burglars can now be identified using invisible
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: genetic material floating in the air. Long after they've left
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: a crime scene. Researchers tested the technique by having mock
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: intruders spend 15 minutes searching homes, then use special vacuum
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: devices to pull floating DNA from the air 30 minutes later.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: Floating DNA. The vacuuming trick matched the DNA to the
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: intruder in up to 82% of tests, while scientists cautioned
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: that airborne DNA is only a tool rather than a
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: full proof of a crime. Police forces are already exploring
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: how to use the tech to solve real break-ins. How
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: about this? Is this going to hold up anywhere? I mean,
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: can they get this to a point where it can
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: hold up, I guess, is the real question. The National
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Retail Foundation predicts Americans will spend a record amount of
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: money on Halloween candy this year. And it's not because
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: people are going to buy more candy. It's because the
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: candy has gotten more expensive. With candy prices climbing, chocolate
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: seeing some of the biggest increases. Chocolate prices have jumped 15.5%
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: in the last year. The price of non-chocolate candy items
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: up nearly 2% from a year ago. So despite the
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: price hikes, Americans expected to spend a record $ 13. 5 billion today.
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: on Halloween this season, and nearly all Halloween shoppers still
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: plan to hand out treats, just maybe not as many
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: people handing out chocolate, I guess. That'll do it for
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: this Wednesday edition of the show. Thanks to our sponsors
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: and patrons. Thank you for listening. I'll catch you back
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: here tomorrow morning.
