  Speaker 9: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our

• 10:25
  Speaker 5: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: at airports They comfort returning veterans, some of whom.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Suffer from PTSS.
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of

• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Fantasy.
• 13:37
  Speaker 17: Eric.
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: You know when I first started quoting Groucho Marx, when
• 13:53
  Speaker 6: Groucho used to say I would never want to be
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: a member of any club that would have me as
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: a member, I was just kind of fun and frolics.
• 14:02
  Speaker 6: Stick it to your competitors, whatever you want to call it,
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: shallow depth, whatever, but it really has grown into a
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: deeply held belief and and a lot of my frustration
• 14:19
  Speaker 6: with my brethren and sister in the or cistern in
• 14:23
  Speaker 6: the media, it's a more apt word for it. It
• 14:28
  Speaker 6: comes from stories like the one we shared yesterday CNN,
• 14:34
  Speaker 6: who the reporter now has said, well, the script.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: May have been miswritten. You think the CNN reporter.
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: That told us that a couple of teens out for
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: a jaunt in Sunday, New York on a warm spring
• 14:51
  Speaker 6: like afternoon were arrested and had their weekend rent asunder,
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: mostly because they had a couple of improvised explosive devices
• 15:02
  Speaker 6: on their person and they were heading to Gracie Mansion
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: to blow the mayor up. You can like or dislike
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: the mayor The story itself highlights the differences in the
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: Islamist world, and I say it that way. It's a
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: phrase we need to use more because it's more accurate,
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: because there are plenty of Muslims living in the United
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: States way more. And we talk often about how five
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: or ten percent of the activist class ruins it.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: For everyone else.
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: You see the people in Portland or Charlottesville or Atlanta
• 15:39
  Speaker 6: doing nutty stuff, marching against ice, you name it, the end,
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: they appear to be everyone because that's how the news
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: cameras cover it. Every Look at all these people marching.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's a couple one hundred people.
• 15:53
  Speaker 6: Great, there's seven million people living in this city.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: Where's everyone else?
• 15:58
  Speaker 6: If it was every one, there'd be seven million people
• 16:01
  Speaker 6: there and it would be existential. So we had that
• 16:08
  Speaker 6: story for you yesterday on the program. Today today, the
• 16:12
  Speaker 6: fund and frolic continues as a Washington Post reporter is
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: now egg on his face for the story he promoted
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: and published telling you that he had proof that there
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: were American troops actually on the ground in Iran, and that.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Became a big thing.
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: I was getting photos, Joe, what are you saying there's
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: no troops in Iron, Washington Post, Washington Post, Washington Post.
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: So it now appears that the photographs that the reporter.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: Was using.
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: Were of soldiers walking off to duty in Atlanta's Hartsfield Airport.
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: It's the major airport in Atlanta. I've flown through it.
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: It's I think the Delta main hub. If you fly Delta,
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: you're going to go through Atlanta Hartsfield Airport. For the
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: most part, Josh Rogan, who is all over the place,
• 17:22
  Speaker 6: I mean, he's everybody's go to, I think partially because
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: they mistake him for Joe Rogan, but that's okay. He's
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: got to get his clicks on where he can. Josh
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: Rogan posted the picture of these soldiers and he said, look,
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: we have proof there are American soldiers in Iran. This
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: story was even picked up by China Pulse, which is
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: a CCP propaganda site. They picked up the picture and
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: said there was American reporters with photographs of US soldiers
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: in Iran. And so, depending on what you think the
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: mission of a guy like Josh Rogan is, or Joe
• 18:30
  Speaker 6: Rogan for that matter, or Joe Thomas, it's it's getting
• 18:35
  Speaker 6: attention for themselves. And part about it is how we
• 18:43
  Speaker 6: reward reporters. Reporters, you know, as an employee of a newspaper,
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: have a hierarchy to go through. But more and more
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: frequently we're pushing our journalists and our media types into.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: What's the best.
• 19:04
  Speaker 6: Word for it, a pay for play industry. They're becoming
• 19:13
  Speaker 6: private contractors. They're paid for the clickthroughs on their videos
• 19:18
  Speaker 6: and YouTube. And trust me, I've seen the stunning numbers
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: that media experts like my son Taylor and my buddy
• 19:27
  Speaker 6: Philip tell me, Oh, you could make dozens of dollars by,
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: you know, excoriating yourself on YouTube. Just ask Johnny Knoxville
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: and the rest of the people from Jackass. He can
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: make dozens of dollars they're on YouTube by publishing lies
• 19:47
  Speaker 6: that everyone and especially lies that reinforce the Vox popular
• 19:54
  Speaker 6: eye anyway, because you go and you exploit this fear
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: that they're there will be American soldiers on the ground
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: in Iran. And here we go again, and it's Afghanistan,
• 20:05
  Speaker 6: it's Vietnam. It's all these things that the Soviet Union
• 20:08
  Speaker 6: told us were bad and paid for protest march for.
• 20:14
  Speaker 6: I mean, just like we're getting paid protest marchers now
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: so you go there, you play that fear and profit.
• 20:29

• 20:44
  Speaker 6: There's a journalistic word for it. Lie, And it's not that,
• 20:53
  Speaker 6: you know, he is claiming that he didn't. He's not
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: claiming anything. He's just saying he stands by his story.
• 21:02
  Speaker 6: That he had a photograph of soldiers walking through an
• 21:05

• 28:14
  Speaker 1: From Joe Thomas.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: It's first thing today, so there's a question.
• 28:28
  Speaker 6: It's an abstract, but Thursdays are fun for abstracts, right.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: I mean, you got.
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: Washington, DC leaking like an Iranian cruiser after a couple
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: of missile strikes, and we can get into all of
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: the leaking and squeaking going on and is it intentional?
• 28:46
  Speaker 6: Are they being specifically leaked out by the administration or
• 28:50
  Speaker 6: are these more of the Vindamin brothers who.
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Are like I just don't like this guy. I'm gonna
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: tell them what my classified briefing was cut. Give me
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: the Washington Post. Marge, Hey, you have and you have that.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: You know diaspora where which is and which isn't. But
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: let let me ask you a question.
• 29:13
  Speaker 6: Riddled me this because this is one of the social
• 29:16
  Speaker 6: justice warrior things, is the restoration of voting rights for felons. So,
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: first off, we have a small problem in this country
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: by expanding felonies into things that don't violate other people's rights. Well,
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: you also have the expansion of what the government believes
• 29:40
  Speaker 6: are your rights, like I have a right to housing,
• 29:43
  Speaker 6: things like that, And I always worry when we hear
• 29:45
  Speaker 6: people talking about I have a right to housing. Well,
• 29:48
  Speaker 6: you know, it's a felony to violate somebody's right. So
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: if I don't give somebody housing, am I committing a
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: felony because I violated somebody's rights. We've murkied this water
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: ever since Barack Obama said, well, I'm telling federal law
• 30:05
  Speaker 6: enforcement not to enforce drug possession crimes from marijuana. Ever
• 30:10
  Speaker 6: since then, policing and law enforcement has perceptually been an
• 30:16
  Speaker 6: interpretive dance. If you're arrested it's because the police don't
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: like you or your skin color. We're back to where
• 30:23
  Speaker 6: we were in the forties and fifties because Barack Obama
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: set the scene for it, and nobody challenged him, because
• 30:32
  Speaker 6: to challenge Barack Obama.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: Was to be seen as being a racist.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: And here we are, and we.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: Allowed it to happen.
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: It's like our friend Tom says frequently, he's even set
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: it into the public record on the floor of the
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: Virginia House of Delegates. Democrats have no fear in telling lies,
• 30:51
  Speaker 6: and Republicans have no courage.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: To tell the truth. We don't. We just like you
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: and me, we do.
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: You'll call me at four three four eighty eight two
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: four two one seven. You'll share the truth, and I'll
• 31:03
  Speaker 6: share the truth. Not my truth, just the truth as
• 31:06
  Speaker 6: I see it. Even the incomfortable stuff that you know
• 31:10
  Speaker 6: sweats me a little bit, but we'll share it with you,
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: so you know. But felons retorted, getting their voting rights
• 31:22
  Speaker 6: back has been a hot button topic across the country,
• 31:26
  Speaker 6: and a federal judge has upheld ruling that ex felons
• 31:32
  Speaker 6: should not automatically lose voting rights. Federal court reaffirmed a
• 31:39
  Speaker 6: January ruling from a lower court that found that Virginia's
• 31:43
  Speaker 6: current practice of disenfranchising people with felony convictions. So I understand.
• 31:49
  Speaker 6: So you get caught, you get convicted of a felony,
• 31:51
  Speaker 6: and you lose the right to vote was among other
• 31:54
  Speaker 6: rights like the right to be out in the public free.
• 32:00
  Speaker 6: And I wanted to highlight this story because it shows
• 32:03
  Speaker 6: how you have to look at how the cases are
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: brought and to think of the mindset that has to
• 32:13
  Speaker 6: go on in somebody's frontal cortex to come up with this.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: It's dark.
• 32:19
  Speaker 6: It's brilliant, but it's dark. So the federal court ruled
• 32:25
  Speaker 6: against disenfranchising people just because they committed a felony based
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: on a post Civil War law that required all Confederate
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: states to guarantee voting rights to emancipated black residents. So
• 32:45
  Speaker 6: I understand. The law that they cited said that freed
• 32:53
  Speaker 6: slaves couldn't be denied the right to vote. This established
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: such creative things here in the South as poll taxes, Yes, sir,
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: you have the right to vote. It's going to cost
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: you twenty five dollars, the Virginia Act for sterilization. These
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: were some of the fruits of that realization is that
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: the nineteen twenty nine Permanent Reapportionment Act, all of these
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: racially biased laws that were created after the Civil War
• 33:24
  Speaker 6: because the government said, the freed slaves are freed people,
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: and you can't treat them as anything less than. So
• 33:31
  Speaker 6: how's a government going to treat them as less than
• 33:34
  Speaker 6: unless we make it impossible for them to get a
• 33:37
  Speaker 6: job or coming to town or go to the grocery
• 33:40
  Speaker 6: store or anything like that. The Readmission Acts were used,
• 33:49
  Speaker 6: and within the Readmission Act it refers to constitutionally disenfranchising
• 33:55
  Speaker 6: people other than those convicted of a crime that were
• 34:00
  Speaker 6: considered common law at the time. Under current law, all
• 34:04
  Speaker 6: ex felons voting rights are automatically revoked in the Commonwealth
• 34:09
  Speaker 6: of Virginia and many other states until their sentences is
• 34:14
  Speaker 6: completed and they apply for And this is the wonderful
• 34:18
  Speaker 6: part of the way this story is crafted. They leave
• 34:21
  Speaker 6: out the part of the fact that you can easily
• 34:24
  Speaker 6: get your voting rights and other civil rights restored upon
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: application to the governor's office. So all you have to
• 34:33
  Speaker 6: do is to say I've finished, I've served my time.
• 34:37
  Speaker 6: The American Civil Liberties Union used these Civil War aerage
• 34:42
  Speaker 6: laws regarding the freed slaves to say, not only, and
• 34:48
  Speaker 6: this is the part that really blows your mind, not
• 34:51
  Speaker 6: only do you have to get your voting rights back
• 34:56
  Speaker 6: when you get out of the Hooscal You can't have
• 35:01
  Speaker 6: them taken away while they're in there. The ACLU wants
• 35:12
  Speaker 6: incarcerated people to be able to vote as long as
• 35:18
  Speaker 6: their felonies didn't fall under this ambiguous headline of common law,
• 35:27
  Speaker 6: common law being what, it's whatever they want to interpret
• 35:31
  Speaker 6: it to be. Is it common law to deny someone housing? Well,
• 35:35
  Speaker 6: I may be a felon because I haven't gone out
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: and rented a room in my house to anyone. So
• 35:43
  Speaker 6: it's as soon as the inch was taken and handringing.
• 35:49
  Speaker 6: Spineless Republicans refused to stand up against the idea and
• 35:54
  Speaker 6: the narrative that somehow felons apparent upon the completion of
• 35:59
  Speaker 6: their time in jail, were not allowed to vote. As
• 36:03
  Speaker 6: if that was it, you were done, Johnny bar the door. No,
• 36:10
  Speaker 6: that was never the case. Virginia had a very specific
• 36:13
  Speaker 6: process and the fun was. When Bill Clinton's travel agent,
• 36:19
  Speaker 6: Terry mccauliffe was governor of Virginia, he decided to do
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: a mass restoration. He said, you know what, skip the
• 36:26
  Speaker 6: application process. I'm just going to give everyone their voting
• 36:29
  Speaker 6: rights back. And at that time, a large portion of
• 36:34
  Speaker 6: the people he restored the voting rights to either were
• 36:38
  Speaker 6: back in jail or in a couple of cases on
• 36:42
  Speaker 6: the FBI's most wanted lists.
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: Oh, but they got their voting rights back.
• 36:47
  Speaker 6: In the Commonwealth of Virginia. So you start adding it together, Well,
• 36:57
  Speaker 6: non citizens, we have to give them the right to vote.
• 37:00
  Speaker 6: People who have stolen or murdered or done committed other
• 37:04
  Speaker 6: felonies against their citizens, We've got to make sure they
• 37:07
  Speaker 6: have right to vote. I mean, is there anyone besides
• 37:12
  Speaker 6: these folks that the ACLU and the American left wants
• 37:16
  Speaker 6: to protect the right to vote, because they certainly don't
• 37:19
  Speaker 6: want the Save America Act to pass, which would protect
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: I don't know, US citizens from having their votes diluted
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: by non citizens. And it's all in the way the
• 37:38
  Speaker 6: left portrays it. Oh they're disenfranchised. Well, you know, they
• 37:42
  Speaker 6: can get their voting rights back. Oh, that's too hard
• 37:45
  Speaker 6: for these dumbasses. And that's one of the most racist things.
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: Prior to the law that said you can't stop the
• 37:53
  Speaker 6: freed slaves from getting their votes back. Is the attitude
• 37:56
  Speaker 6: from the ACLU that you're too dumb to apply for reading.

  Speaker 19: Exercise is hard, so is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
• 41:03
  Speaker 19: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type two diabetes,
• 41:08
  Speaker 19: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 41:12
  Speaker 19: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
• 41:15
  Speaker 19: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 41:22
  Speaker 19: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
• 41:24
  Speaker 19: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 41:28
  Speaker 19: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 41:33
  Speaker 19: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop

  Speaker 6: Thank you for letting me be of service to you

  Speaker 6: here across the talk media network four three.

  Speaker 6: stop breathing.
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: Stop moment.
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: We try anyway.
• 45:03
  Speaker 6: Hey, good news for the network there. Well, you know,
• 45:07
  Speaker 6: and this is neat for but it also is indicative
• 45:11
  Speaker 6: of some things San Antonio.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: We're on.
• 45:16
  Speaker 6: Klup there each morning, and we've got a few minutes
• 45:20
  Speaker 6: left with you here. And by the way, there's four
• 45:22
  Speaker 6: hours of the program, so if you want to check
• 45:25
  Speaker 6: into the other three later on, we post them up
• 45:28
  Speaker 6: as podcasts. You can find easily subscribable links at Joe
• 45:34
  Speaker 6: Thomas in the Morning dot com and you can pick
• 45:36
  Speaker 6: Spotify or I Tunes or whatever they call it these days, Audible,
• 45:42
  Speaker 6: iHeart you pick, and there's a distribution network with First
• 45:47
  Speaker 6: Thing Today by Joe Thomas on it, so you can
• 45:49
  Speaker 6: check in on what we do after we part company
• 45:53
  Speaker 6: in the Alamo. But this is neat, but it's also
• 45:57
  Speaker 6: indicative of the world. Population Room review says San Antonio
• 46:05
  Speaker 6: has jumped past Philadelphia with a one point four to
• 46:11
  Speaker 6: six increase in population. The only Texas city that's growing
• 46:19
  Speaker 6: faster is ford Worth. We're going to be out in Dallas,
• 46:25
  Speaker 6: by the way, in about two weeks time for Freedom Fest.
• 46:28
  Speaker 6: As a matter of fact, two weeks time, we will
• 46:30
  Speaker 6: be live from Dallas there for Seapack brought to you
• 46:36
  Speaker 6: by our friends at Sea. Fact that's not confusing at all. Right,
• 46:40
  Speaker 6: let's test Joe's brain to see if it'll manage. Hey,
• 46:43
  Speaker 6: this portion of Seapacks broadcast brought to you by Sea
• 46:47
  Speaker 6: Fact Committee for a constructive tomorrow. But we appreciate their
• 46:52
  Speaker 6: support in that support still being taken in at JT
• 46:57
  Speaker 6: in the Morning Radio at gmail dot com. But it
• 47:00
  Speaker 6: points to the decline in cities like Philadelphia and Chicago
• 47:07
  Speaker 6: in population. These hard left oligarchies that act like you know,
• 47:16
  Speaker 6: being there is being there. And we were talking about
• 47:20
  Speaker 6: this last night. I was at a fundraiser for Kenyan
• 47:23
  Speaker 6: school program mckindo and by the way, you look it
• 47:30
  Speaker 6: up as a great group, but they're doing some neat
• 47:32
  Speaker 6: stuff here fundraising wise, and they invited me to a
• 47:35
  Speaker 6: cocktail thing and talk to people who can raise money.
• 47:40
  Speaker 6: They're going to be doing a big event coming up
• 47:41
  Speaker 6: in April. Harambi for mckindo is what it's called. I
• 47:49
  Speaker 6: think they're going to be doing similar ones all across
• 47:51
  Speaker 6: the country. But in any event, you know what's happening
• 47:55
  Speaker 6: in these cities. The authoritarians get further and further into
• 47:59
  Speaker 6: their and they go after the people who make the
• 48:04
  Speaker 6: makers and the takers. And I was bringing up a
• 48:09
  Speaker 6: sad story from the nineteen seventies that may repeat itself.
• 48:13
  Speaker 6: There are rumblings that the New York City Stock Exchange,
• 48:18
  Speaker 6: Wall Street herself might move out of the City of
• 48:22
  Speaker 6: New York. And if that happens, I mean, you can
• 48:31
  Speaker 6: have your argument you want over bankers, and we can
• 48:34
  Speaker 6: do that until you know, our nieces go to pieces.
• 48:38
  Speaker 6: But that's where the banking is, and that's where the
• 48:40
  Speaker 6: investing is. If it moves out of New York City,
• 48:43
  Speaker 6: and now they're talking about it moving to Florida. Back
• 48:46
  Speaker 6: in the seventies, they were just talking about it moving
• 48:49
  Speaker 6: to Westchester County, which our listeners on fourteen ninety WGH
• 48:54
  Speaker 6: know very well. Is you know that New york Ish area.
• 48:58
  Speaker 6: It's like New York and Connecticut had a love child
• 49:01
  Speaker 6: and it became Westchester County. It's basically there to keep
• 49:06
  Speaker 6: the New Yorkers from actually moving all the way into Greenwich, right,
• 49:10
  Speaker 6: Isn't that what it is? My grandfather wrote some zoning
• 49:13
  Speaker 6: laws up there, so I know. But World Population Review says,
• 49:19
  Speaker 6: this flight from these big Northeast and Midwest cities left wing,
• 49:24
  Speaker 6: left wing.
• 49:25
  Speaker 7: You left, you left, your left, you left, You're.
• 49:28
  Speaker 6: Going in circles, and they're going even if San Antonio
• 49:33
  Speaker 6: and Houston and Dallas are the blue areas within Texas,
• 49:38
  Speaker 6: Texas as a rule is a conservative state, so even
• 49:43
  Speaker 6: the blue areas are more conservative than the blue areas
• 49:49
  Speaker 6: in Pennsylvania. Illinois, and Chicago's a great city. My cousin
• 49:56
  Speaker 6: lived there for years, ran a business in there, was
• 50:01
  Speaker 6: there for his wedding and visit. It's a beautiful city.
• 50:04
  Speaker 6: It's neat, it's laid out interestingly, but it's being run
• 50:08
  Speaker 6: into the ground by the leftists, and so you know,
• 50:16
  Speaker 6: it happens, you know, that way, and it is not
• 50:21
  Speaker 6: a preferable thing to see a city lose the makers,
• 50:25
  Speaker 6: because then it puts more pressure on the takers, and
• 50:28
  Speaker 6: then who are the makers? All of a sudden, a
• 50:31
  Speaker 6: kid who's working as the manager of a fast food
• 50:34
  Speaker 6: restaurant is viewed as the high income earner in the area.
• 50:39
  Speaker 6: It's a crazy made place. But you know, we just
• 50:44
  Speaker 6: chronicle it all for you. National Nutrition Month is going on,
• 50:50
  Speaker 6: and you know, as if you need a month to
• 50:53
  Speaker 6: think about it, but some of us do.
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: Some need to be reminded here and there.
• 50:58
  Speaker 6: Joann Butler, who is you know, a host and it
• 51:02
  Speaker 6: always seems to be tapped into this stuff with lifeminute
• 51:05
  Speaker 6: dot tv has got some tips for us.
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: Joanne, how are you doing this morning?
• 51:10
  Speaker 17: I'm doing well. Thanks for having me, Jill, not at all.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: So so what are you seeing?
• 51:14
  Speaker 6: You know, are you know some of the trends right now?
• 51:18
  Speaker 6: I know that I've seen some things, you know, and
• 51:20
  Speaker 6: it seems like we go in waves in this stuff.
• 51:23
  Speaker 6: You know, it's this is the hot thing and this
• 51:25
  Speaker 6: is burning up TikTok or something.
• 51:28
  Speaker 17: So what is it right?
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: What is what is real?
• 51:32
  Speaker 17: Yeah? Well, a new survey said that fifty seven percent
• 51:35
  Speaker 17: of sparkling water drinkers reach for sparkling water in the morning,
• 51:39
  Speaker 17: especially great when you just need something really refreshing to
• 51:42
  Speaker 17: start the day. Thirty five percent are looking for something
• 51:45
  Speaker 17: without sugar or sweeteners. Uh, and I know my go
• 51:48
  Speaker 17: to is water loose sparking lean water. These are just
• 51:51
  Speaker 17: like really refreshing, delicious, custom crafted, naturally flavored. There's no sugar,
• 51:57
  Speaker 17: sweeteners or calories at all, just like super bright and
• 52:00
  Speaker 17: full of flavor. And they have a ton of different flavors.
• 52:03
  Speaker 17: Three new ones that are just really yummy banana berry
• 52:06
  Speaker 17: bliss that tastes like creamy ripe banana has like sweet
• 52:10
  Speaker 17: berry nose for the hint of orange for tartness. The
• 52:13
  Speaker 17: melon medley is fantastic. It blends notes of sweet watermelon
• 52:17
  Speaker 17: and cantalopen honeydew. And they brought back last summer's fan favorite,
• 52:21
  Speaker 17: which is lemon Italian ice, so now you can get
• 52:24
  Speaker 17: that one all year round. What's nice about it is
• 52:27
  Speaker 17: that you can also make coked mocktails, you know, because
• 52:29
  Speaker 17: a lot of people aren't drinking anymore, so that's definitely
• 52:33
  Speaker 17: a trend. Yeah, make some nice mocktails here.
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: And that is a I have seen.
• 52:40
  Speaker 6: You know, that's a growing industry and it's good to
• 52:43
  Speaker 6: see that people are, you know, saying, you know that
• 52:46
  Speaker 6: we don't need the heavily sugar you know, sweetener laden
• 52:50
  Speaker 6: you know.
• 52:50
  Speaker 11: Soft crime across the country is that an all time high.
• 52:54
  Speaker 11: It feels like even a family road trip is taking
• 52:56
  Speaker 11: a risk. We don't want the feeling of being unprotected andulnerable.
