- 0:01Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
- 0:05Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:08Speaker 2: Friday morning, thirteenth day of September. Yes, Friday the thirteenth.
- 0:14Speaker 2: I know, I know, superstitious people all hide under the beds,
- 0:21Speaker 2: do your thing, prepare for the worst. Jason Vorhees and
- 0:26Speaker 2: the like just gonna come after you whatever happens. I
- 0:29Speaker 2: don't know. I'm not even a little stitious. Doesn't do
- 0:33Speaker 2: anything for me. And as I've pointed out to you
- 0:36Speaker 2: on many occasions, Friday the thirteenth, Hey, at least it's Friday.
- 0:41Speaker 2: Could be Monday the thirteenth, and then it would be
- 0:43Speaker 2: Monday and you would just be getting the week started.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Just pointing it out. But if you are superstitious, and
- 0:48Speaker 2: I know some people are, you may be one of
- 0:50Speaker 2: those people that really is afraid today and assume that
- 0:54Speaker 2: bad things are gonna happen. Probably in your best interest,
- 0:58Speaker 2: take it easy today, you know, watch out for black
- 1:02Speaker 2: cats and ladders and umbrellas or whatever umbrellas are. Probably
- 1:06Speaker 2: you definitely don't want those umbrellas indoors today. Don't break
- 1:09Speaker 2: any mirrors, all sorts of things that you don't want
- 1:12Speaker 2: to avoid. Over the course of the day today, and
- 1:15Speaker 2: I hope you managed to survive it just fine without
- 1:18Speaker 2: horrible bad luck things happening to you again. Not superstitious,
- 1:24Speaker 2: got some of my little quirks. I've got my own issues.
- 1:27Speaker 2: They don't fall under the pervy of superstition, That's all
- 1:29Speaker 2: I'm saying. But I have plenty of my own quirks,
- 1:32Speaker 2: so I'm not judging you at all. I'm just reminding
- 1:36Speaker 2: you Friday the thirteenth better than Monday the thirteenth, That's
- 1:40Speaker 2: all I want to remind you, And I want to
- 1:43Speaker 2: remind you of something else quickly. We're going to get
- 1:46Speaker 2: to our strange and bizarre news from around the world.
- 1:48Speaker 2: We got some good ones, a couple of disgusting ones,
- 1:53Speaker 2: one really disgusting one. Actually, we got stories today. I'll
- 1:56Speaker 2: just tease before I go into what I want to
- 1:59Speaker 2: mention first, but we got some animal stories. Alligators, we
- 2:04Speaker 2: got a monkey's cockroaches, so you know, we got some
- 2:11Speaker 2: animals in there, some intoxicated people, and we got a
- 2:14Speaker 2: few stories for you, and a couple of stories out
- 2:16Speaker 2: of China. All right, So before we get into that,
- 2:21Speaker 2: I just want to remind you of something we talked
- 2:22Speaker 2: about a long time ago, and remember, I guess it was.
- 2:27Speaker 2: It's been quite some time now. But when we got
- 2:30Speaker 2: around the Super Bowl and everybody was talking about Taylor
- 2:32Speaker 2: Swift and Travis Kelcey, and I'm still in that camp
- 2:37Speaker 2: that I don't necessarily believe. I don't know what to
- 2:40Speaker 2: think about the leaked breakup pr message or whatever that was,
- 2:45Speaker 2: you know, supposedly going around and they denied it. Well,
- 2:47Speaker 2: of course they would deny it, right, It's not like
- 2:50Speaker 2: they're going to say, yeah, yeah, yeah, that was our
- 2:52Speaker 2: our for our staged relationship. That was the staged breakup
- 2:57Speaker 2: memo that was going to go out. They can't admit that.
- 3:01Speaker 2: There have been couples. I just want to remind you
- 3:04Speaker 2: there have been couples that have you know, been you know,
- 3:11Speaker 2: pretending to date, pretending orchestrated things. There's a there's a
- 3:15Speaker 2: docuseries about Nick and Aaron Carter, and in that series,
- 3:21Speaker 2: there's one of the female singers that was they were
- 3:24Speaker 2: asked her to start dating or telling everybody that she
- 3:28Speaker 2: was dating Nick Carter so that it would you know,
- 3:33Speaker 2: be better for her career. She could piggyback off of that,
- 3:36Speaker 2: all those sorts of things. That's that's nothing new. That's
- 3:40Speaker 2: nothing new at all. There have been a number of
- 3:42Speaker 2: those sorts of relationships that you know, they've just benefited.
- 3:47Speaker 2: Remember the Katie Holmes Tom Cruise thing, right, And some
- 3:51Speaker 2: have even gone as far as to say that Nicole
- 3:53Speaker 2: kidman Tom Cruise. So I don't know. I don't know
- 3:57Speaker 2: all the inner workings of it. I just know that
- 4:00Speaker 2: when it comes to publicity, there's situations where there's benefit.
- 4:05Speaker 2: Tony Romo Jessica Simpson like that was one where it's
- 4:08Speaker 2: pretty obvious it wasn't a real relationship, but we were
- 4:11Speaker 2: getting a little show and people were enjoying it and
- 4:14Speaker 2: having a good time. And that's just been a thing.
- 4:18Speaker 2: This is not new, It's happened, Okay, my opinion, the
- 4:23Speaker 2: Taylor Swift Travis Kelty thing wasn't real and isn't real
- 4:26Speaker 2: and whatever. But you know whatever, I you know, people go,
- 4:29Speaker 2: well they get married. Well, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes
- 4:32Speaker 2: were married. That wasn't real. There's nothing real about that.
- 4:35Speaker 2: And I'm sorry. It just wasn't real. That wasn't a
- 4:37Speaker 2: real relationship. That wasn't a real thing. So anyway, I digress.
- 4:41Speaker 2: The reason I bring it up today this week is obviously,
- 4:46Speaker 2: because back then there were people that said, well, why
- 4:51Speaker 2: would this be such a big deal, What is the
- 4:53Speaker 2: benefit in these two He's at, you know, the top
- 4:55Speaker 2: of his game. Not really. I mean, you know, he's
- 4:59Speaker 2: still he's still solid. I would take him, you know,
- 5:03Speaker 2: if I was picking a team, I would certainly want
- 5:05Speaker 2: him on my team. He's a great player. I don't
- 5:07Speaker 2: know if he's still at the top of his game.
- 5:09Speaker 2: You know, you hit that point. You got some position
- 5:12Speaker 2: players where as you know. Anyway, I'm not getting into
- 5:17Speaker 2: the specifics about Track because you know he's They're doing
- 5:20Speaker 2: just fine winning super Bowl's solid team. They know what
- 5:24Speaker 2: they're doing over there. I'm not going to criticize specifics
- 5:27Speaker 2: of that, but her certainly at the top of her game.
- 5:31Speaker 2: There's nothing but you know, Sunshine and Roses. For her
- 5:37Speaker 2: career wise, everything's going great. She's charging people insane amounts
- 5:40Speaker 2: of money to come see her in concert, and her
- 5:43Speaker 2: fans aren't saying, wow, this is expensive. They're saying, wow,
- 5:47Speaker 2: it's such an honor to be able to pay her
- 5:49Speaker 2: this much money to go see her, which is a
- 5:51Speaker 2: weird place to be. That's great for her, it's not
- 5:55Speaker 2: so much great for people that you know, maybe you're
- 5:59Speaker 2: spending more money to go to concerts than they should,
- 6:02Speaker 2: but that's their business, you know, they they go, you go,
- 6:06Speaker 2: you go to the concert, you see the artists that
- 6:08Speaker 2: you want to go see. It's your money, all right,
- 6:11Speaker 2: And it's this is the way capitalism works. This is
- 6:14Speaker 2: the way the free markets work. And it's interesting that
- 6:17Speaker 2: Taylor Swift would be, you know, politically aligned with the
- 6:21Speaker 2: side that's not you know, not so friendly towards capitalism.
- 6:24Speaker 2: But anyway, she's worked it, she's worked the angle. And
- 6:28Speaker 2: I said then that I felt like that was really
- 6:31Speaker 2: it was really all about setting up her getting active
- 6:35Speaker 2: in this presidential run. And I said, then, may not
- 6:41Speaker 2: be until you know, September October, but at some point
- 6:44Speaker 2: we're going to hear from her. She's going to give
- 6:45Speaker 2: her endorsement, and we're going to find out of course
- 6:49Speaker 2: she's supporting you know, then it would have been Biden,
- 6:53Speaker 2: but of course she's anti Trump. Of course that's what
- 6:55Speaker 2: we're going to hear. And that's that's the benefit in
- 6:58Speaker 2: getting this huge, bigger, you know, much bigger even audience
- 7:01Speaker 2: for her and for helping to revive the NFL. There's
- 7:05Speaker 2: so many things, because the NFL took a huge hit,
- 7:08Speaker 2: took a huge hit during the Kaepernick stuff. It took
- 7:11Speaker 2: a huge hit, all sports took a hit during COVID,
- 7:15Speaker 2: So you know, there's there's definitely you know, people going
- 7:18Speaker 2: there's no real benefit, there's benefit in this couple being
- 7:21Speaker 2: what it is, and ultimately it was going to be
- 7:23Speaker 2: about a political benefit because we get to hear from
- 7:27Speaker 2: from Taylor Swift and then you know, and then then
- 7:30Speaker 2: and that was me just speculating here on this show,
- 7:33Speaker 2: and then I hear from people, Oh, you know that
- 7:35Speaker 2: there's a couple of people on TV that are saying
- 7:39Speaker 2: the same thing, and that's well, I didn't. I didn't
- 7:41Speaker 2: know that. I don't. That's part of why I don't
- 7:42Speaker 2: watch a lot of these shows. I think Jesse Waters
- 7:45Speaker 2: might have been one that I was told that was
- 7:47Speaker 2: he was theorizing the same thing, and I'll be honest,
- 7:50Speaker 2: I don't. I don't watch his show. I've watched it before,
- 7:54Speaker 2: I don't regularly watch it. And I've told you I
- 7:56Speaker 2: don't like to watch a lot of these shows because
- 7:59Speaker 2: I like my opinions to be my opinions, and I
- 8:01Speaker 2: don't want somebody to say Oh, but the people who
- 8:04Speaker 2: were telling me that were like, you were saying it,
- 8:05Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden he started saying it.
- 8:07Speaker 2: I don't think he got it from me. I certainly
- 8:09Speaker 2: am not one of those people that watches football and
- 8:12Speaker 2: thinks that in the huddle they're talking about me like,
- 8:14Speaker 2: I don't. That's not the way it works for me.
- 8:16Speaker 2: But anyway, and of course, anybody who supported the idea
- 8:21Speaker 2: that Taylor Swift was going to become some sort of
- 8:23Speaker 2: a player in this election in any way were mocked.
- 8:28Speaker 2: You know, it was a joke. Hah, Yeah, that's what
- 8:30Speaker 2: they're going to be. Sure, Taylor Swift's gonna get involved.
- 8:33Speaker 2: And then now she has. She watched the debate and
- 8:35Speaker 2: she's let everybody know that she likes Harrison hates Trump.
- 8:38Speaker 2: What a shocker. It's almost as if I said this
- 8:41Speaker 2: was going to happen back in February. It's all. It's
- 8:45Speaker 2: almost like it just played out exactly the way now
- 8:49Speaker 2: it was. She going to be more involved, we'll see,
- 8:52Speaker 2: you know, I speculated maybe she'd show up at the
- 8:55Speaker 2: convention for them. She did not do that. But I
- 8:58Speaker 2: think she's still been touring and charging people insane amounts
- 9:01Speaker 2: of money to go see her. But if that's what
- 9:03Speaker 2: they want to go, do go spend your money and
- 9:06Speaker 2: do that while you can. And you know it's not
- 9:08Speaker 2: beneficial to people who have really expensive concert tickets to
- 9:13Speaker 2: continue on with this economy, but you know, you do you,
- 9:15Speaker 2: Taylor Swift, That's what you do. All right, let's get
- 9:18Speaker 2: into some of this strange and bizarre news from around
- 9:21Speaker 2: the world. It's interesting though, those conspiracy theories that end
- 9:25Speaker 2: up happening and then nobody ever goes back and revisits it, like, oh,
- 9:28Speaker 2: I guess we were wrong on that. But yes, we
- 9:31Speaker 2: were just big old conspiracy theorists when we were talking
- 9:34Speaker 2: about Taylor Swift jumping into her endorsements for this selection.
- 9:39Speaker 2: All right, here we go. Let's start in Indiana. This
- 9:43Speaker 2: is one of our I mentioned. We had a monkey story.
- 9:46Speaker 2: Emergency responders in Indiana were called to a house to
- 9:48Speaker 2: assist a resident who was having a medical emergency, but
- 9:53Speaker 2: things certainly turned to monkey business. That's the way it's written.
- 9:57Speaker 2: And a Facebook post. Firefighters, ems workers and Spencer County
- 10:01Speaker 2: say that they responded to a call for medical assistance
- 10:04Speaker 2: at a residence immediately tended to the patient and then
- 10:07Speaker 2: the patient explained that her pet monkeys had gotten out
- 10:10Speaker 2: of the house and climbed up on the roof. They
- 10:13Speaker 2: said one of the little monkeys was unable to get
- 10:16Speaker 2: back down by itself, so firefighters had to work together
- 10:18Speaker 2: to help get the monkey down, share stepies and tried
- 10:21Speaker 2: to We had to hold onto the little guy until
- 10:24Speaker 2: the owner continued receiving medical treatment, So it was a
- 10:29Speaker 2: double like. They were able to help the owner with
- 10:31Speaker 2: the medical problems, but then also help get the monkey
- 10:35Speaker 2: off the roof. All right, here we go, this is
- 10:39Speaker 2: a really gross one. Sorry. A Chinese man with bad
- 10:42Speaker 2: breath was really bothering him for days. Fifty eight year
- 10:47Speaker 2: old recalling waking up one morning feeling like something was
- 10:50Speaker 2: in his nose and throat. He tried coughing, nothing came up.
- 10:53Speaker 2: He just dismissed it, went back to sleep. For the
- 10:54Speaker 2: next three days, he said, experienced unusually bad breath like
- 10:58Speaker 2: he's never had before. He also began coughing up a
- 11:01Speaker 2: lot of mucus. He went to the doctor. An initial
- 11:03Speaker 2: examination found nothing unusual, but he then went into a
- 11:08Speaker 2: respiratory specialist who performed a chest seat scan and determined
- 11:12Speaker 2: there was a foreign object in his lung. A broncoscope
- 11:17Speaker 2: was performed to retrieve the object. It turned out to
- 11:20Speaker 2: be a cockroach that apparently crawled up his nose while
- 11:23Speaker 2: he was sleeping and made its way into his lung. Eh,
- 11:30Speaker 2: that's pretty disgusting. Drunk, barfoot and passed out in the
- 11:34Speaker 2: turn lane of a major road is really only going
- 11:38Speaker 2: to get you put in jail. A forty one year
- 11:41Speaker 2: old furman Telepchko of a Popka Is it a Popka Florida? Sorry,
- 11:50Speaker 2: I don't know that area drank twenty five beers in
- 11:53Speaker 2: five hours and got into his car to drive home.
- 11:56Speaker 2: At some point, I guess maybe he realized probably shouldn't
- 12:00Speaker 2: be driving, so he did the right thing, parked the
- 12:02Speaker 2: car and tried to sleep it off. But he did
- 12:05Speaker 2: this in the left turn lane of a busy road.
- 12:07Speaker 2: A police officer approached the vehicle saw the man fast
- 12:09Speaker 2: asleep behind the wheel. He observed that the driver was
- 12:12Speaker 2: barefoot except for one sock on foot, and had four
- 12:17Speaker 2: bottles of Corona beer in the passenger seat. The driver
- 12:20Speaker 2: failed a field sobriety test and refused a breath test,
- 12:23Speaker 2: but after telling the officer that he had just consumed
- 12:25Speaker 2: twenty five beers wasn't really necessary. The man was arrested
- 12:29Speaker 2: charged with trunk driving. Yeah, that sounds about right. A
- 12:33Speaker 2: New Mexico woman who tried to check into an American
- 12:36Speaker 2: Airlines flight found out that she's on the airlines no
- 12:40Speaker 2: fly list, and then the reason why. It was a
- 12:44Speaker 2: bit disturbing for her. Twenty four year old Aaron Wright
- 12:47Speaker 2: was excited to fly to New Orleans for a sister's
- 12:50Speaker 2: bachelorette party, but was told the airport at the airport
- 12:54Speaker 2: that she couldn't check in because she'd been banned by
- 12:55Speaker 2: American Airlines. Confused, unable to believe what happened, she had
- 13:00Speaker 2: never done anything wrong to warrant a ban, and even
- 13:04Speaker 2: more frustrating, airline employees would not tell her why. Right
- 13:07Speaker 2: had to book a flight on another airline so that
- 13:09Speaker 2: she wouldn't miss her sister's party. While waiting eight hours
- 13:12Speaker 2: to board her flight, she called American Airlines to get
- 13:14Speaker 2: some answers as to why she would be on their
- 13:16Speaker 2: no fly list. It was twelve days later that she
- 13:20Speaker 2: got a response from corporate security, and she's still confused
- 13:25Speaker 2: at what they told her. A representative explained that she's
- 13:27Speaker 2: banned because she was caught having relations with a drunk
- 13:32Speaker 2: man on a previous flight. Wright who says, I don't
- 13:37Speaker 2: like the dudes, I likes the ladies told a rep
- 13:41Speaker 2: that means it's obviously not something that I would do.
- 13:45Speaker 2: So she submitted an appeal to the airline, and after
- 13:47Speaker 2: three months, she was finally taken off their no fly
- 13:50Speaker 2: list and reimbursed for her original flight. It seems like
- 13:57Speaker 2: an identity issue. I think it's safe to say if
- 14:02Speaker 2: you've ever made a big mistake at work, you'll probably
- 14:05Speaker 2: sympathize with this Chinese man. You probably didn't make a
- 14:11Speaker 2: four million dollar mistake at work, though I don't know
- 14:13Speaker 2: it's possible. This worker at a Chinese company that sells
- 14:17Speaker 2: washing machines accidentally mislabeled products on the company's website and
- 14:22Speaker 2: didn't notice the mistake for twenty minutes. Seems like a
- 14:25Speaker 2: reasonable amount of time to recover from your mistake. However,
- 14:29Speaker 2: forty thousand shoppers took advantage of the really sweet deals
- 14:32Speaker 2: on washing machines, and it cost the company more than
- 14:36Speaker 2: four million dollars. The company is devastated, begging customers to
- 14:39Speaker 2: understand it was a mistake. And withdraw their orders for
- 14:42Speaker 2: an immediate refund. The company even asked the employee to
- 14:48Speaker 2: make a seventeen minute video apologizing and explaining that he
- 14:54Speaker 2: made an honest mistake. There's no word on whether he
- 14:56Speaker 2: still employed at the company, but you know, it's a
- 14:59Speaker 2: good at tim, at least in convincing people that you know,
- 15:05Speaker 2: it's not their fault, it's specifically his fault. Florida man
- 15:11Speaker 2: under arrest for allowing his pets to swim in his
- 15:14Speaker 2: swimming pool. The pets, by the way, are alligators. Wildlife
- 15:18Speaker 2: officials received a tip about a homeowner who was keeping
- 15:21Speaker 2: gaters at his home as pets and decided to pay
- 15:24Speaker 2: him a visit to check it out. He didnied having
- 15:26Speaker 2: any large reptiles on his property, but then suddenly remembered
- 15:30Speaker 2: the two alligators he had living in his backyard swimming pool.
- 15:33Speaker 2: There was also a third gator that was dead, as
- 15:35Speaker 2: well as multiple fresh water turtles. It's unclear where he
- 15:39Speaker 2: got the animals from, but he was charged with possession
- 15:42Speaker 2: of an alligator and an unlawful take of wildlife. So
- 15:46Speaker 2: there's that, all right. There's just some things that you
- 15:53Speaker 2: should not ever put in the oven. Remember that show
- 15:56Speaker 2: called The Middle. They would always keep like a comforter,
- 16:00Speaker 2: like for storage in their oven, and they have to
- 16:02Speaker 2: remember to take it out, and they would always forget
- 16:04Speaker 2: and preheat the oven. A lot of people keep you know,
- 16:07Speaker 2: pans and things maybe in there that they go, oh,
- 16:09Speaker 2: I didn't need to leave that in there. That it
- 16:10Speaker 2: gets hot, and they've got to take it out and
- 16:12Speaker 2: deal with a hot pan that they didn't need while
- 16:14Speaker 2: they're trying to preheat an oven. But I would think
- 16:19Speaker 2: most people don't do what this person did. Firefighters in Chesterfield, Virginia,
- 16:26Speaker 2: were called to a home where an oven blew up
- 16:29Speaker 2: because someone put a loaded gun inside. OFFICI will say
- 16:33Speaker 2: someone inside the home, for some unknown reason, put the
- 16:36Speaker 2: loaded handgun in the oven and turned it on. The
- 16:39Speaker 2: gun got so hot that it fired five rounds. Fortunately
- 16:43Speaker 2: no one was hurt, but the gun and the oven
- 16:46Speaker 2: were destroyed and it actually photos show part of the
- 16:49Speaker 2: gun melted into the oven rack. The fire department wrote
- 16:53Speaker 2: on Facebook. When you place any item in an oven,
- 16:58Speaker 2: it's easy to forget where it is, which can lead
- 17:00Speaker 2: to a fire or something worse when you turn it on.
- 17:04Speaker 2: You should also make sure to properly store your firearms.
- 17:08Speaker 2: Keep them somewhere secure, like a gun safe. That's good advice,
- 17:14Speaker 2: that's solid advice for anybody you know. Just don't store
- 17:20Speaker 2: anything in the oven. It's not really a good place
- 17:23Speaker 2: to store things, I mean, other than maybe you know
- 17:27Speaker 2: something that you like, a baking sheet, a baking pan
- 17:30Speaker 2: or something. Today's show brought to you by Columbus State
- 17:32Speaker 2: Universities Coca Cola Space Science Center, inspiring and educating the
- 17:38Speaker 2: youth and future STEM leaders and STEM career holders that
- 17:44Speaker 2: really of all ages. I mean, they do it for
- 17:47Speaker 2: school age kids as school age kids visit the Coca
- 17:49Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center, but they also do it through
- 17:52Speaker 2: their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics,
- 17:57Speaker 2: and the careers in space and STEM fields are booming
- 18:02Speaker 2: right now. And you can learn more about maybe getting
- 18:05Speaker 2: your degree on their website CCSSC dot org. While you're there,
- 18:13Speaker 2: also check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got
- 18:15Speaker 2: this incredible collaboration that they do with the schwob School
- 18:20Speaker 2: of Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome.
- 18:23Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 18:28Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 18:30Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 18:34Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
- 18:39Speaker 2: right here in Columbus. Inside the planetarium at the Coca

- 19:16Speaker 2: remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science
- 19:19Speaker 2: Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by
- 19:24Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage
- 19:27Speaker 2: door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
- 19:33Speaker 2: that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance
- 19:36Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 19:40Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 19:44Speaker 2: care of squaring that away for you, and while they're there,
- 19:46Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
- 19:49Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
- 19:52Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
- 19:55Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
- 19:58Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand garage door completely.
- 20:02Speaker 2: Maybe it's making a noise when your garage door opens
- 20:05Speaker 2: and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation issue that
- 20:08Speaker 2: you've got with colder or warmer weather, sometimes that stuff
- 20:12Speaker 2: gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a
- 20:15Speaker 2: situation where you'd like to add a screen door to
- 20:18Speaker 2: your garage door system that you can put down and
- 20:20Speaker 2: you can use your garage space as a sort of
- 20:24Speaker 2: outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like to work
- 20:26Speaker 2: on your own cars in there, or maybe you just
- 20:29Speaker 2: want a little man cavid you'd like to be able
- 20:31Speaker 2: to open the door up and not invite all the
- 20:33Speaker 2: insects in. They can do that for you as well,
- 20:36Speaker 2: and again they do after hours calls. There's nothing worse
- 20:39Speaker 2: than that thought of having your car trapped inside your
- 20:41Speaker 2: garage and your garage door won't open and you need
- 20:44Speaker 2: somebody to come help, and they do those as well.

- 20:55Speaker 2: dot com More West Carol Morning Show. Right after the break,
- 21:07Speaker 2: we are inching our way towards Halloween. We're, you know,
- 21:11Speaker 2: getting close to that halfway point. I guess once you
- 21:14Speaker 2: get to a Friday the thirteenth, you can start thinking
- 21:16Speaker 2: about Halloween. And it's logical you go from Jason to Michael.
- 21:20Speaker 2: You know, you kind of have that, you know, maybe
- 21:22Speaker 2: a little Freddy somewhere in the middle. I don't know,
- 21:24Speaker 2: I don't know what your you know, a little leather
- 21:26Speaker 2: face or candy Man somewhere in there. I guess candy
- 21:29Speaker 2: Man would be the day after Halloween, right, But Halloween
- 21:33Speaker 2: costumes are certainly very present in the stores, and I
- 21:35Speaker 2: guess we're about to hit all of the Christmas stuff
- 21:38Speaker 2: hitting stores. There's a few places that have already decided
- 21:41Speaker 2: to take that plunge. But when it comes to Halloween costumes,
- 21:44Speaker 2: Walmart is now selling a you know, typically you have
- 21:49Speaker 2: a costume and you go, I'm gonna go as like
- 21:53Speaker 2: a witch, and you know, okay, that's my costume. And
- 21:56Speaker 2: then you have maybe you go, we're a couple, why
- 21:59Speaker 2: don't we go. We'll go and we'll buy the duel,
- 22:03Speaker 2: like the couple costume. I'll be ketch up and you'll
- 22:06Speaker 2: be mustard, you know whatever. But now Walmart apparently now
- 22:10Speaker 2: is selling what is being dubbed a thrupple costume. It's
- 22:14Speaker 2: labeled a couple costume. But I don't know that they
- 22:17Speaker 2: know what the word couple means because it's a twenty
- 22:21Speaker 2: seven dollars costume for three people to wear. And you
- 22:25Speaker 2: would think that maybe if they weren't kind of suggesting
- 22:28Speaker 2: this thrupple thing that's a couple with you know, three
- 22:31Speaker 2: people in it, you know, you know, three people and
- 22:37Speaker 2: in this case two guys in one gal, you would
- 22:40Speaker 2: think maybe they would market it as like, hey, it's
- 22:43Speaker 2: you know, a mom, a dad, and a kid. No,
- 22:47Speaker 2: it's pretty clearly three adults in the picture. Well, the
- 22:50Speaker 2: costume costs twenty seven bucks and it lets people dress
- 22:53Speaker 2: up as the ingredients for s'mores, one as a gram cracker,
- 22:58Speaker 2: one a piece of chocolate, and one is a charred marshmallow.
- 23:02Speaker 2: So yeah, twenty six ninety seven at your local Walmart store.
- 23:07Speaker 2: If you know you need a costume, not just for you,
- 23:10Speaker 2: not just for your partner, but you know, if you
- 23:13Speaker 2: got another person or whatever you want to invite along. Hey,
- 23:18Speaker 2: after one hundred and fifty five years, Campbell's is dropping
- 23:21Speaker 2: soup from their name. Instead of Campbell's Soup, They're going
- 23:24Speaker 2: to be Campbell Company. Of course, they're known for their soups,
- 23:29Speaker 2: but they also do sauces, pastas, snacks, drinks and more
- 23:33Speaker 2: so Campbell Company. It's still a big part of the
- 23:35Speaker 2: company soup is, but it seems that snacks are more lucrative,
- 23:40Speaker 2: with snack sales growing thirteen percent last year versus only
- 23:44Speaker 2: three percent in their soups. When you gotta go, you
- 23:49Speaker 2: gotta go. But what if you got to go at work?
- 23:52Speaker 2: Some people cannot bring themselves to do a two zy
- 23:55Speaker 2: in the bathroom at the office. And the Health Department
- 23:59Speaker 2: in Ueensland, Australia my second home, right that's where my
- 24:04Speaker 2: bride's from. They're trying to change that mentality with a
- 24:09Speaker 2: new campaign. It's called It's Okay to Pooh at Work.
- 24:14Speaker 2: The department posted a video on Instagram encouraging people to
- 24:17Speaker 2: go two zi's at the office, explaining that's not what
- 24:21Speaker 2: it said, but that's what I call it, explaining that
- 24:24Speaker 2: consistently ignoring your need to pooh can lead to stool
- 24:28Speaker 2: getting stuck in your colon, hemorrhoids, and other serious issues,
- 24:33Speaker 2: so it's better to let it out than hold it in.
- 24:36Speaker 2: They go on to say that a lot of people
- 24:38Speaker 2: suffer from poop paranoia and are afraid of being judged
- 24:42Speaker 2: by coworkers because of the sounds or the smells. For
- 24:47Speaker 2: those people, they suggest bringing a small fragrance spray into
- 24:50Speaker 2: the bathroom, avoid food or drink that you know may
- 24:53Speaker 2: trigger your need to go, and also just remember that
- 24:57Speaker 2: everyone poops. So QLD Health is the Instagram page that
- 25:04Speaker 2: has the ad on it. It's got a lot of
- 25:10Speaker 2: just in the picture. The main picture of it dolphins
- 25:13Speaker 2: or possibly it's a porpoise. I think it's a dolphin
- 25:16Speaker 2: and rainbows and all sorts of wonderful things going on
- 25:20Speaker 2: in the ad. So they don't want you to have,
- 25:23Speaker 2: you know, increased heart rate or sweating or nausea. They
- 25:26Speaker 2: want you to be able to just do what you
- 25:29Speaker 2: gotta do. You know, just do what you gotta do
- 25:32Speaker 2: to have a stress free public toilet. Pooh. Remember, I'm
- 25:37Speaker 2: going to read you exactly what it says. Remember everyone poops.
- 25:42Speaker 2: Visualize someone famous on the toilet like Taylor Swift, all right,
- 25:48Speaker 2: can I visualize her with Diarryetino. Bring a small fragrance
- 25:52Speaker 2: spray of the toilet with you, Avoid food drink that
- 25:54Speaker 2: might tro your bibles. And then here's the good. Breathe
- 25:56Speaker 2: deeply or do a short meditation exercise. So there you go.
- 26:02Speaker 2: And they say you can call a healthcare provider for
- 26:03Speaker 2: support if you need it, if the stress of going
- 26:08Speaker 2: to the bathroom in public is a big problem for you.
- 26:12Speaker 2: There's a list of dates that they say are the
- 26:15Speaker 2: lucky days to get married if you're going to get
- 26:17Speaker 2: married in twenty twenty five. I'm not going to read
- 26:19Speaker 2: all these dates. I'm just noticing that a lot of
- 26:22Speaker 2: the dates that they say are lucky this year, or
- 26:25Speaker 2: the second and first and second of a lot of months,
- 26:29Speaker 2: a couple of thirds in there. The twenty fives, I
- 26:32Speaker 2: guess are big because of it being twenty twenty five.
- 26:36Speaker 2: So anyway, but they got some lucky dates. Go to
- 26:39Speaker 2: the not where you can find the dates, figure out
- 26:42Speaker 2: which ones are the lucky ones, and finally, before checking
- 26:45Speaker 2: out of a hotel, always good to do that once over,
- 26:48Speaker 2: or if you're like me, like a twenty over the
- 26:53Speaker 2: room to make sure you're not leaving something behind, especially
- 26:55Speaker 2: something valuable. Hotels dot Com released it's annual Hotel Room
- 26:58Speaker 2: Insights Report revealing some of the most unusual items that
- 27:02Speaker 2: turned up in the hotel lost in founds and they say,
- 27:07Speaker 2: in addition to common things left behind like toiletry's, phone chargers,
- 27:10Speaker 2: and dirty laundry, some hotels have reported finding a pet lizard,
- 27:14Speaker 2: a baby chicken, a car tire, dentures, two full leg casts,
- 27:19Speaker 2: stacks of cash, and a six million dollar wristwatch. Hey,
- 27:23Speaker 2: that was mine. That was me. I wonder if I
- 27:26Speaker 2: could get them to return that. That'll do it for
- 27:28Speaker 2: this Friday edition of the show. Thanks to our sponsors
