- 0:15Speaker 3: Now. It's show side.
- 0:30Speaker 1: Alrighty.
- 0:31Speaker 4: The final week of twenty twenty five is finally here.
- 0:35Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell you why you shouldn't be making actual resolutions,
- 0:38Speaker 4: and San Francisco is trying to make you healthier, but
- 0:41Speaker 4: are they going about it the right way? All of
- 0:43Speaker 4: that and so much more.
- 0:45Speaker 5: Uncensored, unfiltered, unhinged.
- 0:50Speaker 6: It's the Corral Cast.
- 0:52Speaker 4: Listen daily on your favorite streaming service. A right, it
- 1:00Speaker 4: is the Carell Cast. I am Correl, sil very glad
- 1:03Speaker 4: you are joining me. Happy Final week of twenty twenty five.
- 1:07Speaker 4: Today is Monday, December twenty ninth. I hope you had
- 1:10Speaker 4: an absolutely glorious Christmas. The last time we spoke it
- 1:15Speaker 4: was Christmas Day, and so I don't know how your
- 1:18Speaker 4: Christmas went. I hope it went really well. I had
- 1:21Speaker 4: a lovely, lovely Christmas, low key but lovely, visited my
- 1:26Speaker 4: sister as you know, and then came back and had
- 1:29Speaker 4: a doctor's appointment on Christmas Eve where they really told
- 1:32Speaker 4: me nothing Remember I told you I'm going to the
- 1:33Speaker 4: immunologist and to see if I could take another shot.
- 1:37Speaker 4: All she said was, well, there's nothing in the blood
- 1:40Speaker 4: work that would prevent you from getting a vaccine. Well,
- 1:43Speaker 4: is there anything in the blood work that told you
- 1:45Speaker 4: why I responded the way I responded to the last vaccine?
- 1:48Speaker 4: After all, that's why I'm seeing a specialist.
- 1:51Speaker 1: But no, no, no.
- 1:53Speaker 4: All she could say is, well, it looks like you
- 1:57Speaker 4: should be okay. See chat GPT told me that they
- 2:00Speaker 4: were going to test for certain things, and that would
- 2:03Speaker 4: have told them which part of my body responded to
- 2:06Speaker 4: the Shingricks vaccine. Obviously chat GPT is a better immunologist
- 2:11Speaker 4: than my immunologist. Uh, but you know, that's the way
- 2:15Speaker 4: life is. One day, I seriously believe one day that
- 2:19Speaker 4: one that AI will basically be the first I don't
- 2:23Speaker 4: want to say be your doctor, but I think AI
- 2:27Speaker 4: will be the first line of defense for medicine. You'll
- 2:31Speaker 4: you'll go into an office and there'll be an AI there,
- 2:34Speaker 4: a robot or something, and you'll tell or even before
- 2:37Speaker 4: you go into the office, you'll speak to this AI
- 2:40Speaker 4: and tell it all your symptoms, and then it will
- 2:43Speaker 4: help the doctor formulate what's going on when you go in.
- 2:46Speaker 4: I really believe that because I do it now with
- 2:49Speaker 4: Chad g you can feed your You're not supposed to
- 2:51Speaker 4: feed your lab results into chat GPT for a variety
- 2:55Speaker 4: of reasons. I think one of them is you probably
- 2:57Speaker 4: shouldn't have that information on a server because it does,
- 3:01Speaker 4: in fact store these things that you put in it.
- 3:03Speaker 4: So basically you're sharing your medical records and as we know,
- 3:06Speaker 4: HIPPA and all of that. But if you like, if
- 3:10Speaker 4: you get your lab work from quest or whatever and
- 3:13Speaker 4: you upload it to chat GPT, it'll tell you everything.
- 3:16Speaker 4: It'll break down everything, every bit of the lab. It'll
- 3:19Speaker 4: tell you what's good, what's bad, all that. But it's
- 3:22Speaker 4: not a doctor. It's just regurgitating information it knows, and
- 3:27Speaker 4: if there is something wrong, it doesn't have the nuance
- 3:30Speaker 4: to sit and have a conversation with you about what
- 3:32Speaker 4: that means. Yet I think it will. I think we're
- 3:36Speaker 4: headed that way. So I hope you have a lovely Christmas.
- 3:40Speaker 4: It's over. Is your tree down? My tree is down.
- 3:43Speaker 4: It is Monday, December twenty ninth, and Christmas is gone.
- 3:46Speaker 4: My decorations outside a gone. My tree is down. I'm done.
- 3:52Speaker 4: I am not one of these lingering. I know we're
- 3:54Speaker 4: still in the twelve days of Christmas. I know we're
- 3:56Speaker 4: still in Kwansa. I get it. But you know what,
- 3:59Speaker 4: that tree has been since Black Friday, and as beautiful
- 4:02Speaker 4: as it is or was, it was time for it
- 4:05Speaker 4: to go go back into little box. See you next year,
- 4:08Speaker 4: like that Neil Simon thing, Same time next year, See
- 4:10Speaker 4: you next year. So I do hope you had a
- 4:14Speaker 4: lovely day. I hope you got a present you wanted
- 4:16Speaker 4: or bought it for yourself, or if you didn't celebrate
- 4:20Speaker 4: or just had a low key day. I hope you
- 4:22Speaker 4: had the day you wanted, not the day that was expected,
- 4:27Speaker 4: not the day that society said you were supposed to have.
- 4:31Speaker 4: I hope you had the day you wanted on Christmas.
- 4:37Speaker 4: All right, we got a great show for you today.
- 4:38Speaker 4: We're gonna do this Gay Week twice this week, once
- 4:42Speaker 4: today and once on Thursday because me and Scott did
- 4:45Speaker 4: an extra one and I want to share all the
- 4:47Speaker 4: gay stories with you because I'm gay and I think
- 4:50Speaker 4: it's important to keep these stories out there. Also, tomorrow
- 4:53Speaker 4: we're gonna have most of the show. Is gonna be
- 4:55Speaker 4: the Als conversation with Eric Dane. I got to participate
- 5:00Speaker 4: in and watch a panel that was done, and that'll
- 5:04Speaker 4: be tomorrow. I am not in the panel. I'm not
- 5:07Speaker 4: asking questions or anything, but I found it all so
- 5:09Speaker 4: interesting and they made the video available to me, and
- 5:13Speaker 4: I think that we should talk about people with disabilities
- 5:16Speaker 4: and show people with disabilities more. So that'll be tomorrow.
- 5:22Speaker 4: Of course, on Wednesday, we're gonna do the Best of
- 5:24Speaker 4: twenty twenty five, as that's the final day of the year,
- 5:29Speaker 4: and then on Thursday, we're gonna cook a little, we're
- 5:32Speaker 4: gonna talk about the new year, and we're gonna do
- 5:34Speaker 4: another this day week. So we've got a busy, busy
- 5:36Speaker 4: week ahead of us. I hope you'll stay here with
- 5:38Speaker 4: me on the Caroll Cast and have a joyous time.
- 5:42Speaker 4: All right. Coming up next, San Francisco is suing. They
- 5:47Speaker 4: are sueing to help make you healthier. But I want
- 5:50Speaker 4: to talk about this because of one of the number
- 5:53Speaker 4: one resolutions is you shouldn't be making what walk. We'll
- 5:56Speaker 4: talk about that and so much more so, don't go anywhere.
- 5:59Speaker 5: If you're really corell dot com daily, you're missing out.
- 6:04Speaker 5: Get the podcast videos and the blug including recipes at
- 6:07Speaker 5: really Correll dot com. That's really k A R e
- 6:11Speaker 5: l dot com.
- 6:13Speaker 2: Show Time is here. No time to fear. Corell is
- 6:18Speaker 2: so near because show time is here. So on with
- 6:22Speaker 2: the show.
- 6:22Speaker 1: Let's give it a go. Correll is the one that
- 6:26Speaker 1: you need to know.
- 6:29Speaker 4: Alrighty righty diedy then, So as you know what two
- 6:33Speaker 4: days from now looking at a calendar is New Year's Eve.
- 6:37Speaker 4: I know you're gonna be safe, insane. I hope you
- 6:39Speaker 4: do an Irish New Year like me, where you do
- 6:41Speaker 4: it at a pub at four o'clock and then you're
- 6:42Speaker 4: home by five and you've had a New Year's even
- 6:44Speaker 4: It's fabulous because that's what I do. I go to
- 6:47Speaker 4: the pub at three o'clock, party until four. They do
- 6:50Speaker 4: the countdown in Ireland at four we all do a toast,
- 6:54Speaker 4: play a little music and men ember go home. Be
- 6:57Speaker 4: doing that again this year. But you know, we all
- 7:00Speaker 4: want to make New Year's resolutions, and whether it's healthy
- 7:04Speaker 4: or not, we're gonna do it. We're gonna look ahead.
- 7:07Speaker 4: But there is a psychology behind why resolutions fail. Let
- 7:13Speaker 4: me share a little of what this article has to
- 7:16Speaker 4: say about this. In many ways, the ritual of making
- 7:20Speaker 4: resolutions on New Year's Eve as arbitrary. After all, we
- 7:23Speaker 4: can set goals anytime. I think you should do it
- 7:25Speaker 4: around your birthday, since that's your New Year's Eve. But
- 7:28Speaker 4: what is it about the turning of the calendar that
- 7:30Speaker 4: makes us especially likely to commit to these goals. Well,
- 7:34Speaker 4: New Year's is an opportunity for reflection, says clinical psychologist
- 7:38Speaker 4: Terry Bly of the Ely Mental Health and Institute in
- 7:42Speaker 4: Mendota Heights, Minnesota. As a result, the coming of the
- 7:46Speaker 4: new year may lead many of us to consider the
- 7:48Speaker 4: changes we want to make or have been told to
- 7:50Speaker 4: make in our lives. Then the ritual of making those
- 7:54Speaker 4: resolutions can serve as a motivator for us to commit
- 7:57Speaker 4: to making those changes. Jennifer Kowalski, a licensed professional counselor
- 8:02Speaker 4: at Thrive Works in Cheshire, Connecticut, agrees with that assessment.
- 8:05Speaker 4: She says a new year represents a fresh start, and
- 8:08Speaker 4: people need something to single, a moment to refresh. When
- 8:12Speaker 4: something comes to an end, it's an opening or a
- 8:15Speaker 4: new beginning, and since everyone in the world experiences the
- 8:18Speaker 4: new Year on the same day, it's a moment where
- 8:20Speaker 4: many of the people around us are looking back on
- 8:23Speaker 4: the old year and thinking about how it improve their
- 8:25Speaker 4: lives in the new year. Consequently, the desire to make
- 8:29Speaker 4: resolutions can be especially strong. Yet, even though so many
- 8:33Speaker 4: of us make New Year's resolutions, we also regularly fail
- 8:37Speaker 4: to keep them. So why do we even bother if
- 8:39Speaker 4: we know our chances of success are pretty damn slim?
- 8:43Speaker 4: According to Bli, as humans, we do tend to be
- 8:45Speaker 4: optimistic even in the face of evidence. So even if
- 8:49Speaker 4: we know the success rate of resolutions is low, or
- 8:53Speaker 4: that in the past we've failed to have our New
- 8:56Speaker 4: Year's resolutions come to completion, each new year offers helpe
- 9:00Speaker 4: that this time, this time, those resolutions will finally stick. Unfortunately,
- 9:06Speaker 4: optimism alone won't result in the change that you actually
- 9:09Speaker 4: want or need. The reality is that there are a
- 9:12Speaker 4: number of things about the way that we make resolutions
- 9:16Speaker 4: that set us up for failure before we start. So
- 9:19Speaker 4: don't do this. First of all, don't think too big.
- 9:26Speaker 4: All change is gradual, okay, So don't try to rein
- 9:31Speaker 4: totally reinvent the wheel. You know, in order to change
- 9:35Speaker 4: the behavior, you have to be uncomfortable, and nobody wants
- 9:38Speaker 4: to be uncomfortable. So in order to see a lasting change,
- 9:41Speaker 4: you have to be in a state of discomfort for
- 9:44Speaker 4: a period of a long period of time. Now, some
- 9:47Speaker 4: of us are we've been miserable a while, or fat
- 9:49Speaker 4: a while, or whatever it might be. But where we
- 9:52Speaker 4: go wrong, they say, is there's this idea that it's
- 9:55Speaker 4: supposed to be some big sweeping change in your life.
- 10:00Speaker 4: And yet as humans, we're not wired really to make
- 10:03Speaker 4: big sweeping changes. So as a result, if we want
- 10:08Speaker 4: to be able to meet our goal, like learning a language,
- 10:11Speaker 4: we need to set smaller goals in ways to succeed.
- 10:14Speaker 4: For instance, if your goal is to learn a language
- 10:17Speaker 4: next year, start by signing up to Babbel, signing up
- 10:21Speaker 4: to a language course. Start little, okay, start by signing
- 10:26Speaker 4: up to something. Or if you're going to teach yourself,
- 10:29Speaker 4: start with just a word or phrase a day. Don't
- 10:32Speaker 4: try to master an entire soliloquy, you know, in one day.
- 10:36Speaker 4: And we don't ask ourselves why change is hard and
- 10:40Speaker 4: the pain of not changing has to be greater than
- 10:42Speaker 4: the pain of us changing, or we won't do it.
- 10:46Speaker 4: Many of our resolutions resolutions tend to involve things we
- 10:49Speaker 4: feel we should do. But when we focus on what
- 10:52Speaker 4: we should do. We're not focusing on what's in it
- 10:55Speaker 4: for us. One way we're more likely to change is
- 10:58Speaker 4: to get at the heart of our eternal reason for
- 11:01Speaker 4: wanting to change. Usually, New Year's resolutions are optional things,
- 11:06Speaker 4: and so if we hate doing it, any goal we
- 11:09Speaker 4: set is just playing. It's just pain. Like you know,
- 11:11Speaker 4: it hurts, and we're not really sure that the reward
- 11:14Speaker 4: is going to be big enough, so we stop doing it.
- 11:17Speaker 4: If our resolution is to go to the gym three
- 11:19Speaker 4: times a week, but we hate going to the gym,
- 11:22Speaker 4: we're not going to meet our goal. The pain of
- 11:24Speaker 4: not changing has to be greater than the pain of changing.
- 11:29Speaker 4: In other words, if you have to start going to
- 11:31Speaker 4: the gym three days a week, or your doctor said
- 11:33Speaker 4: you're gonna die, well, the pain of not going is
- 11:37Speaker 4: greater death. You know, we need to know our personal
- 11:42Speaker 4: reasons for our goal before you set the goal. You
- 11:45Speaker 4: need to know, well, why am I setting it? For real?
- 11:50Speaker 4: And another reason we don't make it is we're just
- 11:52Speaker 4: not ready to change. You know, you gotta be ready
- 11:56Speaker 4: to change. You know, first there's pre contemplay. You start
- 12:01Speaker 4: to become aware that there may be something you need
- 12:03Speaker 4: to change. Then there's contemplation you're thinking about making a change.
- 12:09Speaker 4: Then there's preparation you start putting a plan together to
- 12:13Speaker 4: make a change. And then there's the action you make
- 12:16Speaker 4: that change. But then there's maintenance. You determine how to
- 12:20Speaker 4: maintain the change. So those are the five things that
- 12:24Speaker 4: go into making a change. And if the change is
- 12:28Speaker 4: going to be lasting, you have to keep it up.
- 12:32Speaker 4: You can't just stop. January is the number one, number
- 12:38Speaker 4: one time for JIM signups, and guess what by April,
- 12:43Speaker 4: fifty percent of those people drop out. Now, being obese,
- 12:50Speaker 4: being overweight is one of the things that people want
- 12:54Speaker 4: to change, and it often seems like we don't have
- 12:58Speaker 4: much help because trying to lose weight. But society is
- 13:02Speaker 4: out here giving us huge portions of food. The grocery
- 13:06Speaker 4: store is filled with bad food, and so we want
- 13:09Speaker 4: to lose weight, but we live in a society that's
- 13:12Speaker 4: not set up to let us lose weight unless we
- 13:14Speaker 4: take a shot. Well, in San Francisco, they're going to
- 13:18Speaker 4: try to help you. San Francisco is going to sue
- 13:21Speaker 4: the ultra processed food companies. The city Attorney accuses large
- 13:25Speaker 4: manufacturers of causing disease that have burdened the governments and
- 13:29Speaker 4: the public through their cost. So last week, the city
- 13:33Speaker 4: attorney filed the nation's first governmental lawsuit against food manufacturers
- 13:40Speaker 4: over ultra processed food, arguing that cities and counties have
- 13:45Speaker 4: been burdened with the cost of treating disease that stems
- 13:49Speaker 4: from their products. David Chu, the city attorney, told The
- 13:53Speaker 4: New York Times that he will sue ten corporations that
- 13:57Speaker 4: make some of the country's most popular food and drinks.
- 14:01Speaker 4: Ultra Processed products now comprise seventy percent of the American
- 14:06Speaker 4: food supply, which is why it's so hard for you
- 14:09Speaker 4: to lose weight and filled grocery store shelves with a
- 14:12Speaker 4: kaleidoscope of colorful package slim gym meat steaks, cool ranch doritos.
- 14:18Speaker 4: But also there's the breads and sauces and granola bars
- 14:22Speaker 4: that are marketed as healthy and they're really not. They're
- 14:25Speaker 4: really not. Now it's very rare that liberal San Francisco
- 14:31Speaker 4: is in line with the Trump administration, but they are.
- 14:33Speaker 4: They have also targeted ultra processed foods as part of
- 14:37Speaker 4: its make America Healthy Again mantra. So yeah, mister Choo's lawsuit,
- 14:43Speaker 4: which has been filed in San Francisco's Superior Court on
- 14:47Speaker 4: behalf of the state of California, seeks unspecified damages for
- 14:51Speaker 4: the costs that local government bear treating residents whose health
- 14:55Speaker 4: has been harmed by ultra processed food. The city accuses
- 14:59Speaker 4: the company of unfair and deceptive acts in how they
- 15:03Speaker 4: market and sell their food, arguing that such practices violate
- 15:07Speaker 4: the state's unfair competition law and public nuisance statues. They
- 15:12Speaker 4: also argue that the companies know that the that their
- 15:15Speaker 4: food makes people sick, and they sell it anyway. Now
- 15:21Speaker 4: there's no clue how successful it will be. In August,
- 15:23Speaker 4: a federal judge in Philadelphia dismissed one of the nation's
- 15:26Speaker 4: first private lawsuits over ultra processed food, filed by a
- 15:30Speaker 4: young consumer who was diagnosed with type two diabetes and
- 15:34Speaker 4: non alcoholic fatty liver at age sixteen. The judge was
- 15:38Speaker 4: appointed by Joe Biden, ruled that plaintiffs claimed lack specifics
- 15:42Speaker 4: about which products he had consumed and when. But the
- 15:47Speaker 4: San Francisco City Attorney's Office has had success as a
- 15:50Speaker 4: ground baking public agency on other health matters. As you recall,
- 15:54Speaker 4: they won five hundred and thirty nine million dollars from
- 15:56Speaker 4: tobacco companies and twenty one million from lead men factorers,
- 16:00Speaker 4: which you never saw a dione dim of. And in
- 16:03Speaker 4: twenty eighteen they sued the opioid manufacturers and they did
- 16:07Speaker 4: in fact win that. So they say, look, the attorney
- 16:13Speaker 4: picked up a box of lunchables and said, look, it's
- 16:19Speaker 4: supposed to contain pepperoni, pizza, fruit punch flavored capricea and
- 16:22Speaker 4: Nestli crunched chocolate bar. But when you try to read
- 16:26Speaker 4: what's in it, you can't. The ingredients you can't even
- 16:28Speaker 4: pronounce at all. Diglyceride xanthem gum, calcium proprionate, cellulose powder,
- 16:36Speaker 4: modified foodstotch, potassium sor bait. He said, it makes me
- 16:41Speaker 4: sick that generations of kids and parents are being deceived
- 16:46Speaker 4: into buying food like lunchables, and it's not even food,
- 16:51Speaker 4: it's basically chemicals. Okay, okay, I could go on with
- 16:59Speaker 4: the story. But you know, in twenty ten, San Francisco
- 17:01Speaker 4: ban fast food restaurants from giving away free toys because
- 17:05Speaker 4: they said that it you know, it made kids think
- 17:09Speaker 4: that they were, you know, getting something fabulous. So I
- 17:18Speaker 4: have an interesting how do I say this? I feel
- 17:26Speaker 4: split on this because I've been a fat person basically
- 17:31Speaker 4: my entire life, and you have to wonder at what point,
- 17:39Speaker 4: you know, is it the person's responsibility. I like, you
- 17:45Speaker 4: live in a sea of poisonous food, but I don't
- 17:48Speaker 4: eat it. You know, I don't eat it, and I
- 17:56Speaker 4: tend to think that, you know, just because the food
- 17:59Speaker 4: is there doesn't mean you have to eat it. Now,
- 18:02Speaker 4: if only seventy if seventy percent of everything is ultra
- 18:05Speaker 4: process and there's only thirty percent of food that isn't,
- 18:09Speaker 4: then yeah, there is a problem. But again, that food
- 18:16Speaker 4: would disappear from the shelves if people stop buying it.
- 18:21Speaker 4: You know, we do live in a country of supply
- 18:24Speaker 4: and demand, and so if we all stopped eating it,
- 18:30Speaker 4: then it wouldn't fill the shelves anymore. They would put
- 18:33Speaker 4: more food that you're buying, and more types of food
- 18:38Speaker 4: that you're buying. So it's sort of a split, double
- 18:44Speaker 4: ed sword for me. I think it's great that cities
- 18:47Speaker 4: and governments are trying to hold food manufacturers accountable for
- 18:50Speaker 4: the junk that they give us. Just like last week
- 18:53Speaker 4: when we talked about people are filing wrongful death lawsuits
- 18:56Speaker 4: against insurance companies. I think that's great. But at the
- 19:00Speaker 4: same time, on this week of New Year's where many
- 19:04Speaker 4: of you are saying you want to eat better food,
- 19:06Speaker 4: it's not that hard to do. I mean I never
- 19:11Speaker 4: barely ever go into the center of the grocery store.
- 19:15Speaker 4: Barely ever. I will go to the bean and rice isle,
- 19:19Speaker 4: the international food isle, and the canned ale for things
- 19:23Speaker 4: like canned tomatoes and stuff like that. But that's about it.
- 19:28Speaker 4: There are if there's thirty aisles in a grocery store,
- 19:31Speaker 4: or let's say twenty, I don't go on seventeen of them.
- 19:36Speaker 4: I go to the outside of the store, the produce section,
- 19:40Speaker 4: and then the little vegan section, which is often in
- 19:42Speaker 4: the produce section, sometimes the frozen section, because I do
- 19:47Speaker 4: like an occasional frozen veggie burger or whatever because they're quick.
- 19:51Speaker 4: But that's about it. That's and then again the canned
- 19:55Speaker 4: section and the rice and beans. But that's it. I
- 19:59Speaker 4: don't go tow on the chip aisle, the candy ale.
- 20:01Speaker 4: I don't go. I don't even know what all those
- 20:03Speaker 4: they have aisles that are just all bad drinks, like
- 20:07Speaker 4: energy drinks and power aids, And it's like, are you
- 20:10Speaker 4: freaking kidding me, you know, So they stalk a lot
- 20:16Speaker 4: of stuff that's terrible. I never see it. I don't
- 20:18Speaker 4: even see it. I don't mean I don't even know
- 20:20Speaker 4: where it is or what it is. The fact that
- 20:23Speaker 4: the grocery store has half an aisle or a whole
- 20:25Speaker 4: isle of chips and snacks, that's the problem. And but
- 20:31Speaker 4: I it's not a problem for me because I don't
- 20:34Speaker 4: go down those aisles. And it's not just because I
- 20:38Speaker 4: don't eat that food. Oreos are vegan, fig newtons are vegan.
- 20:44Speaker 4: I love fig newtons. I love oreos. So I don't
- 20:48Speaker 4: go down those aisles because I might be tempted to
- 20:52Speaker 4: put them in the in the basket or in the
- 20:54Speaker 4: wagon because I have a wagon, because Ember's in my wagon.
- 20:58Speaker 4: So it it's a matter of is it the chicken
- 21:03Speaker 4: or the egg. Is it that the food companies are
- 21:06Speaker 4: only giving us processed food and therefore they're making us
- 21:10Speaker 4: sick and we should see that. Or is it that
- 21:14Speaker 4: we're only turning to processed foods because it's easy. That
- 21:18Speaker 4: the other ostens are there, but we're just not choosing
- 21:21Speaker 4: to use it. Do we really have to have all
- 21:25Speaker 4: bad things out of our reach?
- 21:28Speaker 7: I do stay.
- 21:44Speaker 3: No it show side.
- 22:00Speaker 4: You know that's powerful what I just said. As much
- 22:04Speaker 4: willpower as I have in the grocery store, I don't
- 22:06Speaker 4: have it at home. For instance, after I had my
- 22:09Speaker 4: tea party with the girls and I had leftover mini
- 22:12Speaker 4: muffins and Chef Kenny tarts. The next day afterwards, I
- 22:17Speaker 4: ate some of them and I was eating too much,
- 22:19Speaker 4: so I put them in the composter, and I know
- 22:22Speaker 4: I should have given them to the homeless people at
- 22:24Speaker 4: the park. I felt bad after that, but I put
- 22:27Speaker 4: them in the composter because I thought, you're gonna eat
- 22:29Speaker 4: these and with an LDL of one hundred, you can't.
- 22:34Speaker 4: You can't. You got to get the LDL down to
- 22:36Speaker 4: below seventy. So I thought, well, at a thirty at night,
- 22:41Speaker 4: after you've had two Edible's child, you don't eat the
- 22:44Speaker 4: mini cupcake. You must say, well, it's just a mini cupcake,
- 22:47Speaker 4: it's only one hundred. Then you're going to shove four
- 22:49Speaker 4: of them in your pow hole. So I got rid
- 22:52Speaker 4: of them. So there is something to be said that
- 22:56Speaker 4: if those items that San Francisco is suing over or
- 23:00Speaker 4: not on the shelves, if there wasn't an entire aisle
- 23:05Speaker 4: of energy drinks, they're an entire aisle of chips and
- 23:09Speaker 4: sodas and snacks. Then you wouldn't be able to buy them,
- 23:13Speaker 4: or you would be at certain places, but it wouldn't
- 23:17Speaker 4: be easy to buy them. Humans tend to go for
- 23:22Speaker 4: what's easiest, and that's just a human trait. We tend
- 23:27Speaker 4: to go for what's easiest. If it's easy to buy
- 23:31Speaker 4: a box of lunchables instead of prepping your kid's lunch
- 23:36Speaker 4: with whole foods because you're so busy in the morning,
- 23:40Speaker 4: it's easy, whatever it might be, then that's what we're
- 23:42Speaker 4: gonna do. Even if it's bad, we're gonna do it.
- 23:48Speaker 4: And so if lunchables weren't there, or if they were
- 23:51Speaker 4: forced to make them better, although you can't. It's processed meats.
- 23:55Speaker 4: It's no one should eat lunchables unless they just got
- 23:58Speaker 4: carrots and you know, fruits and vegetables and you know,
- 24:02Speaker 4: maybe a protein that is not meat, then don't eat them.
- 24:09Speaker 4: But people do and they are filled with count And
- 24:11Speaker 4: that's the other thing. You might be eating food that
- 24:15Speaker 4: you think is good for you and then you read
- 24:18Speaker 4: the label and it's like I said about peanut butter.
- 24:22Speaker 4: The only ingredient in peanut butter should be peanuts. All
- 24:25Speaker 4: you have to do is take your food process or
- 24:27Speaker 4: put in two cups of peanuts after you roast them
- 24:30Speaker 4: for four or five minutes, and guess what you get
- 24:32Speaker 4: roasted peanut butter. No ingredients. I mean, sprinkle a little
- 24:36Speaker 4: salt in there if you want, go and read most
- 24:39Speaker 4: peanut butters in the store they have other oils added,
- 24:43Speaker 4: they have sugar added. They like Skippy. Skippy don't even
- 24:47Speaker 4: say it's peanut butter anymore. It says spread. So they
- 24:53Speaker 4: take good food nowadays and actually make it bad, and
- 24:59Speaker 4: they should be stopped from doing that if you're buying
- 25:02Speaker 4: food like granola. Now, granola's not a health food. It's not.
- 25:06Speaker 4: It's just lots of sugar and oats and nuts and stuff.
- 25:10Speaker 4: There's good stuff in granola, but when you buy it
- 25:15Speaker 4: in the store, it is so filled with sugar and
- 25:17Speaker 4: sometimes fat. Oil. Make your own granola, you know. Add
- 25:23Speaker 4: the other night I made cookies and I thought, I
- 25:26Speaker 4: can't use oil, so I use pumpkin pure instead. It
- 25:30Speaker 4: cut out an entire eight hundred calories from the recipe
- 25:34Speaker 4: just to substitute in pumpkin pure instead of oil, and
- 25:39Speaker 4: they tasted fine. They were peanut butter cookies. They were delicious.
- 25:43Speaker 4: So as you look ahead to the new year, San
- 25:47Speaker 4: Francisco's trying to help you out by getting some of
- 25:49Speaker 4: the bad food off the shelf. But remember it's all
- 25:53Speaker 4: personal choice, and don't make don't swing at windmills for
- 25:59Speaker 4: your resolutions. You know, I'm gonna learn a language, I'm
- 26:03Speaker 4: gonna lose fifty pounds, find a husband, and go to Greece. Yeah,
- 26:07Speaker 4: probably not. Don't set yourself up to fail. But when
- 26:12Speaker 4: it comes to food or anything in life, ultimately you're
- 26:18Speaker 4: responsible and can say yes or no. That's the hardest
- 26:22Speaker 4: part of life is actually taking responsibility for your own
- 26:28Speaker 4: I would like to lose twenty five pounds, or let's
- 26:31Speaker 4: say twenty six. That's it's twenty twenty six. I would
- 26:33Speaker 4: like to lose twenty six pounds next year. This next year,
- 26:37Speaker 4: we're three days away. Will I I'm gonna try. I
- 26:42Speaker 4: know I have the knowledge as to how will I
- 26:46Speaker 4: be able to We'll see. I'm not gonna beat myself
- 26:49Speaker 4: up if I don't. But given that the sleep apnea
- 26:54Speaker 4: would get better, my blood pressure would get better, the
- 26:58Speaker 4: strain on my Orda would less and even more, It's
- 27:02Speaker 4: just a win win for me. And this goes back
- 27:05Speaker 4: to does the benefit outweigh the pain? In my case,
- 27:09Speaker 4: it does the benefit of losing twenty five or twenty
- 27:13Speaker 4: six pounds for twenty twenty six outweighs my love of
- 27:18Speaker 4: oreos at eight thirty at night. So I'm going to
- 27:22Speaker 4: have to find a way this year that I can
- 27:25Speaker 4: live with to successfully cut back on the calories during
- 27:29Speaker 4: the day so I can in fact lose this twenty
- 27:32Speaker 4: six pounds. If I don't, I'm not going to beat
- 27:35Speaker 4: myself up. I'll just keep trying or I'll finally let
- 27:40Speaker 4: them give me the zetbound throwing the towel. Oh god. Okay,
- 27:48Speaker 4: So a week and a half ago, Scott and I,
- 27:52Speaker 4: Scott Jacobson and I did our this Gay Week and
- 27:55Speaker 4: he had spotty Internet, but we covered some good stuff.
- 27:58Speaker 4: So I want you to see that up next. A
- 28:01Speaker 4: lot of interesting stories, So that'll be coming up next,
- 28:05Speaker 4: And again I want you to think about the upcoming year.
- 28:10Speaker 4: You know, we have to be as strong as we
- 28:15Speaker 4: can because Trump and politics and just the world in
- 28:21Speaker 4: general is gonna be throwing some monumental shit at us.
- 28:25Speaker 4: And then in your personal life, I'd like to say
- 28:28Speaker 4: many of you are not gonna lose loved ones. You may.
- 28:32Speaker 4: I'd like to say all of our pets are gonna
- 28:34Speaker 4: make it through the year. They might not, So I'd
- 28:38Speaker 4: like to say we're all gonna make it through the year.
- 28:40Speaker 4: Maybe some of you listening won't, maybe I won't. The
- 28:44Speaker 4: world is gonna throw stuff at us, and our stamina,
- 28:49Speaker 4: our resilience, our health is our shield. That's how we
- 28:55Speaker 4: help protect ourselves. So on the show this year, I'm
- 28:58Speaker 4: gonna try to help you develop up some good habits.
- 29:01Speaker 4: We're gonna cook this week some healthy stuff, and then
- 29:06Speaker 4: the week after we're gonna talk more about movement and
- 29:11Speaker 4: getting you going and getting you out in the world
- 29:13Speaker 4: a little bit more. Because if we are strong, and
- 29:18Speaker 4: we are stronger together, as my song said, then you
- 29:20Speaker 4: love the music show last week. Many of you may
- 29:22Speaker 4: not have thought I love doing it, But if we
- 29:25Speaker 4: are strong, it can be our shield. All right, we
- 29:29Speaker 4: come back this Gay Week with me and the handsome
- 29:32Speaker 4: journalist from Canada, Scott Jacobson. He does a feature called
- 29:36Speaker 4: his Gay Week for the good Man Project. I am
- 29:40Speaker 4: his guest every week. I decided to start sharing what
- 29:42Speaker 4: we talk about. So it's coming up.
- 29:44Speaker 8: It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view yours.
- 29:50Speaker 8: Listen daily to the Carell Cast on your favorite streaming service.
- 30:00Speaker 2: Show Time is here. No time to fear. Corella is
- 30:04Speaker 2: so near because show time is here. So on with
- 30:08Speaker 2: the show.
- 30:09Speaker 1: Let's give it a go. Corilla is the one that
- 30:12Speaker 1: you need to know.
- 30:15Speaker 7: Now it's show side.
- 30:29Speaker 4: You know, my entire career, I was told on commercial
- 30:32Speaker 4: radio to keep the gay topics to a Lindon. But
- 30:35Speaker 4: now that the gays are under attack and I have
- 30:38Speaker 4: a podcast, guess what I'm gonna start doing more gay topics,
- 30:41Speaker 4: including this Gay Week. So coming up next, this Gay.
- 30:44Speaker 5: Week, Uncensored, unfiltered, un hinged.
- 30:50Speaker 3: It's a Corrall cast.
- 30:52Speaker 4: Listen daily on your favorite streaming service. All right, it
- 31:00Speaker 4: is the crowd cast. I am Correll. I was told
- 31:03Speaker 4: my entire career to xnay on the gay topics. You
- 31:06Speaker 4: are the gay topic. But you know what, we are
- 31:09Speaker 4: going backwards across the globe in gay and lesbian rights,
- 31:14Speaker 4: and so once or twice a week we're gonna spend
- 31:17Speaker 4: a half hour on the show talking about him. Because
- 31:19Speaker 4: I know all of you are allies or gay or
- 31:22Speaker 4: bye or lesbian or trance. Scott Jacobson's a very handsome
- 31:26Speaker 4: journalist out from Canada. I do an interview with him
- 31:29Speaker 4: every week for his column in The good Man Project
- 31:32Speaker 4: called This Gay Week, and here is part one. All right,
- 31:37Speaker 4: it is This Gay Week again with Scott Jacobson in
- 31:39Speaker 4: Canada and Corell here in beautiful Las Vegas, where it
- 31:41Speaker 4: was thirty seven degrees this morning. All right, We're gonna
- 31:45Speaker 4: start with eight heads, a subject near and dear to
- 31:50Speaker 4: my heart since I survived the crisis, and tomorrow, the
- 31:53Speaker 4: sixth of December, I have a new single coming out
- 31:55Speaker 4: called I Dance because with twelve remixes count them. And
- 32:00Speaker 4: it was written because I have lost so many friends
- 32:03Speaker 4: to HIV AIDS that every time I dance to oldies,
- 32:05Speaker 4: I cry because I remember all of those that I
- 32:09Speaker 4: have lost, And so I was looking up some ads info.
- 32:13Speaker 4: First of all, we got to remember that AIDS the
- 32:15Speaker 4: United States refused this December first to participate in World
- 32:18Speaker 4: Aid's Day, which Madonna has denounced and called reprehensible and ridiculous,
- 32:26Speaker 4: as did many people in the world. We have to
- 32:29Speaker 4: remember that every two hours in the United States and
- 32:32Speaker 4: every or every forty five minutes globally, somebody still dies
- 32:37Speaker 4: of HIV AIDS, so it is not cured. Proteus inhibitors
- 32:41Speaker 4: are a great advancement that are saving lives, but they
- 32:43Speaker 4: are not a cure and prep is great, but a
- 32:46Speaker 4: getting it to people now with Donald Trump's cuts has
- 32:49Speaker 4: been horrible and b again, it is not one hundred percent.
- 32:53Speaker 4: So the first big news about AIDS this week was that,
- 32:55Speaker 4: for the first time since the inception of World Aid's Day,
- 32:59Speaker 4: the United States did not participate in it, once again
- 33:02Speaker 4: showing the homophobia and the power of Project twenty twenty
- 33:06Speaker 4: five that it has on the White House. It was
- 33:10Speaker 4: denounced by many people, including Madonna, as cruel and ridiculous
- 33:15Speaker 4: or unnecessary, but of course this is a White House
- 33:17Speaker 4: that doesn't care. Meanwhile, the rest of the world did
- 33:21Speaker 4: care and does care, and they commemorated those we have lost.
- 33:25Speaker 4: In Australia, it was very powerful. They read the names
- 33:30Speaker 4: of Australian's lost to AIDS. It was a very impactful
- 33:34Speaker 4: and powerful movement. They did this on their national television.
- 33:37Speaker 4: It wasn't just at some little event, and so that
- 33:41Speaker 4: was very powerful. But also there was news out yesterday
- 33:44Speaker 4: from the University of California and San Francisco about long
- 33:47Speaker 4: term HIV control and they're looking into ex visting immunotherapies
- 33:54Speaker 4: and combinations. And one of the things that AI is
- 33:57Speaker 4: really doing for us is allowing us to make different
- 34:01Speaker 4: existing therapies for things that we might have never thought
- 34:05Speaker 4: of combining. But AI thinks of it and does and
- 34:08Speaker 4: something comes out of it. So we are hoping again
- 34:11Speaker 4: that this would just be a long term treatment, not
- 34:14Speaker 4: a cure. I mean, we were hoping for a cure,
- 34:17Speaker 4: but this is not a cure. But on December first,
- 34:20Speaker 4: World's a Day in Nature, they did publish this trial
- 34:25Speaker 4: which relied on a collaboration with a dozen pharmaceutical companies
- 34:29Speaker 4: and other partners in their HIV research, and they offered
- 34:32Speaker 4: a proof of concept the approach could work, and that
- 34:36Speaker 4: approaches combining experimental immunotherapy agents as well as existing ones,
- 34:42Speaker 4: and seven out of ten participants kept the virus at
- 34:46Speaker 4: undetectable levels, because that is what we are hoping for
- 34:48Speaker 4: in treatments for at least six months after the trial,
- 34:54Speaker 4: which is prom mis seeing news as we know their
- 34:59Speaker 4: problem or maybe you don't know, but the problem with
- 35:02Speaker 4: HIV therapies is the blood brain barrier, as it is
- 35:06Speaker 4: with a lot of therapies. We have to cross that
- 35:09Speaker 4: barrier because HIV hides out in the organs, and so
- 35:13Speaker 4: they can cleanse the blood of it, but it's still
- 35:16Speaker 4: going to be there in the brain and the kidney
- 35:17Speaker 4: and the liver. So they have to make sure they
- 35:19Speaker 4: have a drug that can actually break the blood brain
- 35:24Speaker 4: or traverse the blood brain barrier. They think these immuno
- 35:29Speaker 4: retrovirals are you know, a good way to do that.
- 35:32Speaker 4: We'll see where that research goes, but it is promising
- 35:34Speaker 4: that even though Donald Trump has cut so much in
- 35:37Speaker 4: AGE research, that other countries are still pouring money, resources
- 35:41Speaker 4: and time into it and they are making some advances
- 35:44Speaker 4: like this trial which has came out on weld age
- 35:48Speaker 4: date Ecember first. It's probably primit of medicine that you
- 35:51Speaker 4: see SF San Francisco and was presented at the World
- 35:54Speaker 4: AIDS Conference in Australia. Well, that is very, very exciting
- 35:58Speaker 4: from the world of age. You again with Scott Jacobson.
- 36:03Speaker 5: You are missing here get videos and the blogs at
- 36:07Speaker 5: really Correll dot com.
- 36:09Speaker 4: That's really k A R E. L dot com.
- 36:13Speaker 2: Show time is here. No time to fear. Correll is
- 36:18Speaker 2: so near because show time is here, So on with
- 36:22Speaker 2: the show.
- 36:23Speaker 1: Let's give it a go. Correll is the one that
- 36:26Speaker 1: you need to know.
- 36:30Speaker 4: Okay. So I feel sorry for gen Z as I'm
- 36:33Speaker 4: here talking to Scott Jacobson and he's talking to me
- 36:35Speaker 4: him for the good Man Project, which I really want
- 36:37Speaker 4: him to tell us about one day as he traveled.
- 36:40Speaker 4: He's traversing the world for his journalistic endeavors, and I'm
- 36:44Speaker 4: a little jealous. When I was a journalist, we had
- 36:45Speaker 4: no budget to go anywhere except in the coffee room.
- 36:48Speaker 4: But he's in DC as we speak. So you're not
- 36:52Speaker 4: gen Z. So what are you, jen Y gen X?
- 36:54Speaker 4: You're not Jen're You're a millennial Jesus, I have shoes
- 37:00Speaker 4: older than you. But anyway, so they did a survey
- 37:04Speaker 4: and this this is a great segue from an aide story,
- 37:07Speaker 4: because when ages came around, it was really like the
- 37:10Speaker 4: music stopped. Okay, So suddenly those of us who were
- 37:14Speaker 4: out going to bath houses going home with people whose
- 37:17Speaker 4: names we might have gotten before we left the house,
- 37:20Speaker 4: maybe not. You know, I can't tell you how many
- 37:23Speaker 4: times I would be like, oh, yeah, that's with this
- 37:25Speaker 4: hot guy. What's his name, well, Jack Daniels, I don't know.
- 37:30Speaker 4: So now because of the lockdown to Trump presidencies, because
- 37:38Speaker 4: of you know, COVID and monkey pocks and everything else,
- 37:42Speaker 4: gen Z is grappling with love dating in the bedroom.
- 37:46Speaker 4: They're having fewer one night stands. They are taking to
- 37:49Speaker 4: AI lovers. I don't know how that even works. But okay,
- 37:54Speaker 4: CHADGPT as many things, but not sexy. So politicians and
- 37:58Speaker 4: parents have influences whose are all asking about the love
- 38:03Speaker 4: life of gen Z and basically what they're getting back
- 38:06Speaker 4: in today's day and age. And this is across the world,
- 38:08Speaker 4: by the way, It's not just the United States. If
- 38:10Speaker 4: that young people aren't having much sex, and that's very interesting.
- 38:16Speaker 4: Birth rates are declining, so this isn't just a gay thing.
- 38:21Speaker 4: But I will tell you the notion or the stereotype
- 38:26Speaker 4: of the gay man as promiscuous that has really died
- 38:30Speaker 4: with my generation gen X and baby Boomer because the
- 38:34Speaker 4: new generations, Millennials, gen Y, gen Z, they be in hosts.
- 38:39Speaker 4: You know, they are really not going out and having
- 38:43Speaker 4: as much sex as we did. I feel sorry for them.
- 38:46Speaker 4: As George Michael said, sex is natural, Sex is good.
- 38:49Speaker 4: Not everybody doesn't, but everybody should, you know, not that
- 38:53Speaker 4: I've had it recently. I'm sixty three, who's you know what.
- 38:55Speaker 4: I don't want to sleep with a raisin because that's
- 38:57Speaker 4: what men my age look like to me, a little
- 38:59Speaker 4: rippled up raisins. And it's really, you know, nothing more
- 39:05Speaker 4: cliche than a sixty three year old man with a
- 39:07Speaker 4: thirty five year old So unless if I were rich,
- 39:09Speaker 4: should perhaps it's the Donna or fair Yeah, oh yes,
- 39:14Speaker 4: I'd be screwing every dancer around. But they're not. That
- 39:18Speaker 4: gen Z is not. And the other thing about gen
- 39:22Speaker 4: Z that's very interesting is they're not classifying their sex
- 39:27Speaker 4: as gay or straight. If you parse out some of
- 39:30Speaker 4: the details of the article, it shows that they're a
- 39:33Speaker 4: little more fluid with their identification of who they're having
- 39:39Speaker 4: sex with. Thirty two percent in twenty twenty three of
- 39:43Speaker 4: high schoolers said they had had sex. That is compared
- 39:48Speaker 4: to forty seven percent in twenty thirteen. So back in
- 39:52Speaker 4: twenty thirteen, almost half of high schoolers had said, oh, yeah,
- 39:55Speaker 4: I've had sex, and how many of those lied we
- 39:57Speaker 4: don't know, But now it's down to thirty two, so
- 40:00Speaker 4: less than one This would be, you know, nice news
- 40:02Speaker 4: for parents. Less than one third of high schoolers have
- 40:05Speaker 4: said they've had sex. A survey conducted by the Kinsey
- 40:09Speaker 4: Institute in partnership with the sexual wellness brand Love Honey
- 40:13Speaker 4: Loube found that one in four Gen Z adults aged
- 40:16Speaker 4: eighteen to twenty four have not had partnered sex yet.
- 40:21Speaker 4: Now I don't know what they're saying partnered. I'm not
- 40:24Speaker 4: really sure, like, how do you have sex without a partner?
- 40:27Speaker 4: So you know, I but maybe you could enlighten me
- 40:31Speaker 4: on that, mister millennial, how do you have sex without
- 40:33Speaker 4: a partner?
- 40:34Speaker 9: I mean, my guess is that they mean they're in
- 40:36Speaker 9: some type of good relationship rather than rather in the
- 40:39Speaker 9: sense of there has to be a body there, right,
- 40:42Speaker 9: it would be once more, it would be logical possibility.
- 40:45Speaker 9: Over do you think part of this is tied to
- 40:47Speaker 9: social media technology and.
- 40:50Speaker 4: So you're in and that is yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,
- 40:57Speaker 4: and thank you for bringing that up. In the era
- 41:00Speaker 4: of more connection, I read a remarkable article last a
- 41:03Speaker 4: night about how we are in trouble. We're in big trouble,
- 41:05Speaker 4: and it said, welcome to the age of anti social media.
- 41:09Speaker 4: And what the article was about is the more we
- 41:14Speaker 4: gravitate online, the less we are doing human interaction, and that, yes,
- 41:22Speaker 4: you got to have human interaction to have sex, at
- 41:26Speaker 4: least my day you did. Maybe you can enlighten me
- 41:29Speaker 4: about that. But there's also a lot of angry guys
- 41:33Speaker 4: out there. And if you look at the statistics that
- 41:34Speaker 4: eighteen to twenty four, one in three gen Z men
- 41:38Speaker 4: eighteen to twenty four have reported not having sex. So
- 41:42Speaker 4: if thirty three percent of men eighteen to twenty four
- 41:44Speaker 4: aren't having sex, it explains a lot of the upset
- 41:47Speaker 4: people on the internet. And I really don't want to
- 41:51Speaker 4: equate this, but I kind of am. It also explains
- 41:54Speaker 4: some of the mass shootings, you know, because let's be real,
- 41:58Speaker 4: young men, when you're eighteen to twenty four, you are
- 42:03Speaker 4: meant to have sex. Your hormones are raging, and if
- 42:06Speaker 4: you're not having sex, those hormones are gonna manifest some
- 42:11Speaker 4: other way. Explains the Andrew Tates of the world. That
- 42:17Speaker 4: explains this toxic.
- 42:20Speaker 6: Yes, I'm looking at two parts of the state.
- 42:22Speaker 4: I mean, I think it explains the toxic masculinity that
- 42:24Speaker 4: is out there right now, because.
- 42:29Speaker 6: Right it's a little bit of a time be layer think.
- 42:34Speaker 4: Now with gen Z women, Yeah, there is a time delay.
- 42:37Speaker 4: It's like I'm doing a live network with you know,
- 42:40Speaker 4: with Europe, and I'm waiting for the host to answer
- 42:43Speaker 4: me very hard. Woman under thirty are more likely to
- 42:46Speaker 4: be in a relationship than men under thirty. That's also yeah, yeah, yeah, no,
- 42:52Speaker 4: I'm here, Bob, ask me anything. It's amazing that women
- 42:57Speaker 4: under thirty are It's amazing that women under thirty are
- 43:01Speaker 4: more apt to be in a relationship than men under
- 43:03Speaker 4: thirty because I wonder who those women are the relationships with,
- 43:07Speaker 4: maybe other women thirty.
- 43:10Speaker 9: One, the women, the speculations, and they're be dating older
- 43:16Speaker 9: that that's been widely speculator one speculation I haven't heard.
- 43:19Speaker 9: I mean it's two second one dating older to their
- 43:21Speaker 9: dating other women. Three they could be sharing men.
- 43:29Speaker 4: Well, I don't share my man, so I would do
- 43:32Speaker 4: to your point about other women, h twenty percent of
- 43:35Speaker 4: women gen Z who are Republican, twenty percent of women,
- 43:39Speaker 4: thirty eight percent of men. However, gen Z that identify
- 43:44Speaker 4: as LGBTQ, the number between men and women is remarkable.
- 43:49Speaker 4: Thirty two percent of women identify as somewhere on that
- 43:56Speaker 4: spectrum queer, lesbian, bisexual, whatever it might be. Eighteen percent
- 44:02Speaker 4: of gen Z males say that they're LGBTQ. That's a
- 44:09Speaker 4: large number, by the way. Back in my day it
- 44:11Speaker 4: was like one two percent. But it's amazing the gender
- 44:15Speaker 4: gap that thirty two percent, like one third of women
- 44:18Speaker 4: admit that, yeah, I could be with a woman eighteen
- 44:22Speaker 4: percent of men in this survey that I'm reading, which
- 44:24Speaker 4: is from which let's state our source here. This is
- 44:27Speaker 4: from The Guardian. Though sixty three percent of men under
- 44:31Speaker 4: thirty are single. That's compared with only thirty four percent
- 44:36Speaker 4: of women under the age of thirty. So you're right,
- 44:38Speaker 4: they've got to be dating someone or doing something, because
- 44:40Speaker 4: if sixty three percent of men are single under thirty
- 44:43Speaker 4: and thirty four percent on women, they're obviously dating someone.
- 44:47Speaker 4: Thirty one percent of women identify somewhere on the gay spectrum,
- 44:50Speaker 4: of only eighteen percent of men, which might explain the
- 44:54Speaker 4: difference in the relationship gap. I think women are opening
- 44:57Speaker 4: themselves up to relationships with other women more than men
- 45:01Speaker 4: are opening themselves up to relationship with other men. Conservative
- 45:06Speaker 4: policies lead to the fear of sex. Some women's sex
- 45:10Speaker 4: lives have been adversely affected by recent conservative political triumphs
- 45:14Speaker 4: on social media. The raw emotion of Trump selection soon
- 45:19Speaker 4: made itself clear. Talk of a four B movement, which
- 45:23Speaker 4: I'm not quite sure what that is. I'll have to
- 45:25Speaker 4: look that up. Maybe you know what the four B
- 45:26Speaker 4: movement is. I don't know.
- 45:27Speaker 6: Yeah, four be.
- 45:30Speaker 9: It's there's four bees in Korean language that ulster would
- 45:34Speaker 9: be and it means something to the effect of no marriage, men,
- 45:39Speaker 9: no children, no sex as long so Korean would.
- 45:46Speaker 4: There should be a fifth thing there, no fun there
- 45:49Speaker 4: should be there should be a fifth thing. It should well,
- 45:52Speaker 4: there should be a fifth thing there no fund should
- 45:54Speaker 4: be number five. It's like you know, uh, so politics
- 45:57Speaker 4: are affecting the sex lives of gen Z there and
- 46:02Speaker 4: particularly conservative politics. Non Monogamy is on the table, but
- 46:07Speaker 4: gen Z does not seem to be taken with it
- 46:09Speaker 4: as other generations, which is very interesting. Gen Z are
- 46:14Speaker 4: most likely to say they prefer monogamy as a relationship
- 46:17Speaker 4: style twenty three percent of them, Boomers twelve percent, So
- 46:22Speaker 4: my generation is a little more open to being open
- 46:25Speaker 4: as opposed to the younger people. I'm not one of those.
- 46:28Speaker 4: I can't do the open marriages or open relationships. I
- 46:31Speaker 4: dated a bye guy once and I tried to not
- 46:33Speaker 4: get jealous about the women he went with, and I
- 46:36Speaker 4: got jealous. So you know, and they're not they're not
- 46:42Speaker 4: having Yeah, I did say a boy to the buy guy.
- 46:45Speaker 4: First date sex can be a known of with Gen
- 46:48Speaker 4: Z as well, more so than Gen X or millennials
- 46:51Speaker 4: or boomers. And of course, if you're a gay man,
- 46:54Speaker 4: you have sex before the date because you don't want
- 46:56Speaker 4: to waste a good date on someone you're not going
- 46:57Speaker 4: to get laid by. That's really the truth. I mean,
- 47:01Speaker 4: older gay men dating is great. Well yeah, I mean
- 47:07Speaker 4: with older gay men that was the way. But it
- 47:11Speaker 4: appears that younger gay people are opting for a different way.
- 47:16Speaker 4: They're opting for get to know you first and then
- 47:19Speaker 4: have sex, which might explain why they're not having enough
- 47:21Speaker 4: sex because you know. Meanwhile, in good entertainment news, there
- 47:27Speaker 4: is a movie coming out that I just can't wait
- 47:30Speaker 4: for because I'm a biker. I'm a motorcyclist, I have
- 47:32Speaker 4: been for almost thirty years, and it's called Pillion. Well,
- 47:36Speaker 4: the Baptists, which are the British Film Awards, have a
- 47:39Speaker 4: cousin called the beefas the IFAs. Those are the British
- 47:42Speaker 4: Independent Film Academy Awards and Pillion is the name of
- 47:48Speaker 4: the movie. And it cleaned up at the beefas it
- 47:52Speaker 4: won like almost every major award. Alexander'scard's guard, the hunk
- 47:58Speaker 4: from True Blood and others. He is in the movie
- 48:02Speaker 4: and it's it's kind of a comedy but not and
- 48:06Speaker 4: it's about gay bikers into the SNM. Now, how they're
- 48:10Speaker 4: going to release this in polite culture, I don't know,
- 48:16Speaker 4: but they are and it's getting huge, huge award at
- 48:19Speaker 4: the British Independent Film Awards, like it swept basically and
- 48:25Speaker 4: it took everybody by surprise. It won Best Film at
- 48:30Speaker 4: the Bypass in Britain, so that was just really stunning
- 48:35Speaker 4: for a film about gay bikers and BDSM. It's adapted
- 48:41Speaker 4: from the Adam mars Jones novel Box Hill. It picked
- 48:45Speaker 4: up for Best Debut Screenwriter for Harry Lytton, Best Costume,
- 48:49Speaker 4: Best Hair, Best Makeup, Best Film. It's gotten four star
- 48:53Speaker 4: reviews from the Guardian and from almost every other European
- 48:56Speaker 4: media outlet that has reviewed it. So that's a piece
- 49:00Speaker 4: of good news. We have a gay film about gay
- 49:03Speaker 4: bdsm uh and it's actually cleaning up. We have yet
- 49:07Speaker 4: to see what it will do in America. America tends
- 49:10Speaker 4: to be a little more prudish, but we'll see, you know.
- 49:13Speaker 4: The last film we had that came out kind of
- 49:16Speaker 4: centering on the gaze that created a huge amount of
- 49:19Speaker 4: controversy was al Pacino's Cruising, of which there is a
- 49:23Speaker 4: new Russell Tovey movie out by the way, which sort
- 49:27Speaker 4: of is almost like Cruising by al Pacino and is
- 49:32Speaker 4: also winning awards. Another fun piece of news out of Ireland.
- 49:39Speaker 4: So bears, for those of you that don't know, are
- 49:42Speaker 4: basically gay harry men who have not seen ozempic, you
- 49:47Speaker 4: know who stay away from ozempic. It appears that Ireland
- 49:50Speaker 4: has the highest percentage of bears in the world. So
- 49:54Speaker 4: if you want to go or something this, according to Grinder, don't.
- 50:00Speaker 4: I I would not have looked. I would not have
- 50:02Speaker 4: thought Ireland, and that, you know. I would have thought
- 50:04Speaker 4: maybe some cold nation like Scotland where the men are
- 50:10Speaker 4: bearded and you know, burly men, you know. But but no,
- 50:14Speaker 4: it is Ireland, according to Grinder. It just Grinder did
- 50:21Speaker 4: an unwrapped And I know a lot of people are
- 50:23Speaker 4: getting their music. Did you get your music unwrapped? To
- 50:25Speaker 4: you do you stream the music? How do you listen
- 50:27Speaker 4: to music?
- 50:28Speaker 6: I stream it on Spotify, but I don't know the
- 50:30Speaker 6: unwrapped option.
- 50:31Speaker 4: But as I go, well, you should beginning it. If
- 50:36Speaker 4: you're a Spotify member, they send it to everybody that's
- 50:38Speaker 4: signed up and it's basically your ear in music, it's
- 50:41Speaker 4: what you listened to. Last year, I listened to ninety
- 50:45Speaker 4: two thousand minutes of music and in the United States
- 50:49Speaker 4: I was European superstar Emily Sonde's top five percent of listeners. So,
- 50:56Speaker 4: based on anonymous and aggregated data from users to grind,
- 51:00Speaker 4: under Unwrapped report for twenty twenty five says that there's
- 51:03Speaker 4: more Bears in Ireland than any other country. And of
- 51:08Speaker 4: course the Bears are a subculture in our culture. It's
- 51:14Speaker 4: really weird how gays split up. There's bear bars and
- 51:17Speaker 4: twin bars and pretty boy bars. We call them circuit
- 51:20Speaker 4: bars or circuit queens because of the party's circuit, the
- 51:23Speaker 4: white parties. You know, there's a party circuit, Provincetown, all
- 51:26Speaker 4: of that Peatown.
- 51:29Speaker 7: Okay, so I do subspact state.
- 51:44Speaker 3: Now it's show side.
- 51:59Speaker 4: And so bear are actually, you know, a subculture, but
- 52:04Speaker 4: they have really and truly caught on. So I guess
- 52:07Speaker 4: I have to stop making my joke that bears are
- 52:09Speaker 4: just gay men who have given up on hygiene and
- 52:11Speaker 4: won't use thozenbic because it appears they're very popular. So
- 52:16Speaker 4: all right, we've got a couple more stories. Hurries to
- 52:20Speaker 4: go here from your coffee shop, per called on just
- 52:23Speaker 4: a second that time or seven minutes and thirty seconds.
- 52:33Speaker 4: Here is something good out of the UK, which is
- 52:36Speaker 4: that there will be free health and well being kit
- 52:39Speaker 4: for trans and non binary people launched in the UK.
- 52:43Speaker 4: So as we see governments pulling back on supporting trans
- 52:46Speaker 4: it is so nice to see that in the UK
- 52:48Speaker 4: they're offering free health and well being kits for trans
- 52:51Speaker 4: and non binary people because you know, it's there's a
- 52:55Speaker 4: war going on with trans people and it's into an
- 52:59Speaker 4: international war. As we know in many African nations, they're
- 53:02Speaker 4: killing trans people, they are out law trans people, they
- 53:06Speaker 4: are jailing trans people. So it's nice that you know,
- 53:11Speaker 4: we're seeing the UK is actually saying no, we're we
- 53:14Speaker 4: are going to help trans people with a health kit.
- 53:20Speaker 4: A toolkit created by an an an e. It focuses
- 53:24Speaker 4: on UK specific healthcare Ireland's house system is also lacking
- 53:28Speaker 4: when it comes to trans inclusivity, resources and funding, and
- 53:32Speaker 4: so they are members of the UK who are trans
- 53:35Speaker 4: healthcare Form members are trying to bring this kit to
- 53:38Speaker 4: Ireland as well and other nations so that trans people
- 53:42Speaker 4: can have some resources to help them either a transition
- 53:48Speaker 4: or help them after they have transitioned. So that's some
- 53:52Speaker 4: good news.
- 53:55Speaker 6: So it's not Superio. Second, laborers, have you heard the Durnam?
- 54:02Speaker 9: Have you heard the ya the jurnam?
- 54:05Speaker 4: Well, have you heard the herd the dirt? Have you
- 54:08Speaker 4: heard the dirt about Eurovision? No? So the Games have
- 54:14Speaker 4: claimed Eurovision as our own because let's be real, it's
- 54:18Speaker 4: pretty gay. It's it's it's the you know, competition that
- 54:21Speaker 4: gave us Abba. So you know, so Ireland and several
- 54:25Speaker 4: other nations are not going to compete in Eurovision because
- 54:28Speaker 4: Israel is being permitted to compete. There are those that
- 54:32Speaker 4: feel Israel is continuing a genocide against the Palestinian people
- 54:38Speaker 4: and they should suffer some repercussion. And so Ireland and
- 54:43Speaker 4: three other nations have said they are not going to
- 54:48Speaker 4: compete in the Eurovision twenty twenty six not because of
- 54:52Speaker 4: a stance on LGBTQ issues, but because Israel has been
- 54:57Speaker 4: allowed to participate and they really feel that the biggest
- 55:00Speaker 4: violator of human rights right now is in fact Israel,
- 55:05Speaker 4: and so that's that's very very interesting. Also, Hugh Wallace
- 55:09Speaker 4: from Ireland passed away. I saw and met mister Wallace.
- 55:14Speaker 4: He was a gay presenter there in Ireland, very very
- 55:18Speaker 4: well known, and he passed away and I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- 55:24Speaker 4: He was an architect who was also a TV star.
- 55:27Speaker 4: He let's not negate his you know what. He had
- 55:29Speaker 4: has degree in but he was open to gay and
- 55:33Speaker 4: he passed away and the tributes from across the UK
- 55:35Speaker 4: are pouring in. He did like Home of the Year,
- 55:38Speaker 4: the Great House Revival, my Bungalow Bliss. So he was
- 55:42Speaker 4: like their property brothers here in the United States. And
- 55:45Speaker 4: he's passed away and the world is out pouring love
- 55:47Speaker 4: to him. And that's again another positive story. That's nice
- 55:50Speaker 4: to see because he was very beloved and the tributes
- 55:54Speaker 4: are showing and their worldwide tributes are coming in from
- 55:57Speaker 4: all and many other countries, and it's nice to see
- 56:00Speaker 4: that he has in fact been so beloved. Let's see,
- 56:05Speaker 4: I had a Russia story. Did did was it you
- 56:07Speaker 4: that sent me the rest? I had a Russia story.
- 56:09Speaker 4: I don't know where it went to.
- 56:12Speaker 9: Uh it was under you said, this was under LGBT
- 56:15Speaker 9: Communation report blocks children's gaming platform world block providing antig
- 56:20Speaker 9: example walk And that's actually interesting too because the war context,
- 56:25Speaker 9: there's one systematic state policy stuff put on using video
- 56:30Speaker 9: games as a very subtle and easily accepted forms of
- 56:36Speaker 9: delivery for variouspression coup agenda.
- 56:39Speaker 6: But in university b TQ one this is.
- 56:41Speaker 9: I think would be for the writing the line with
- 56:43Speaker 9: that in terms of their antiopp. I think said, of
- 56:46Speaker 9: course some other stories where their model was being taken
- 56:50Speaker 9: into account for other countries that you wish to not
- 56:54Speaker 9: necessarily line of rotor was aligned with their state policy on.
- 57:00Speaker 6: When they're in the artists, well, you.
- 57:03Speaker 4: Know, Russia's going rogue. They're trying to distance themselves from China,
- 57:06Speaker 4: which is why Plutin is in India, and they're really
- 57:10Speaker 4: trying to become a the world superpower, and so they're
- 57:12Speaker 4: trying to get away from their reliance on China and
- 57:15Speaker 4: other countries. So they're kind of going rogue, but certainly
- 57:20Speaker 4: they are tripling down on their anti gay rhetoric, and
- 57:24Speaker 4: it is dangerous because it might influence game makers and
- 57:28Speaker 4: their decisions. I was playing a game. I used to
- 57:30Speaker 4: play games. Do you are you a gamer?
- 57:33Speaker 6: Used to be a gamer? But it's great times.
- 57:37Speaker 4: Yeah, I used to be a gamer. I'm not anymore.
- 57:39Speaker 4: But there was a game, and I forget. It was
- 57:42Speaker 4: a very very popular game, and it was one of
- 57:46Speaker 4: those games where you could make choices, like at the
- 57:51Speaker 4: end of a scene, you could choose to go this way,
- 57:53Speaker 4: or choose to go that way, or choose to go
- 57:56Speaker 4: with this person, or choose to go with that person.
- 57:59Speaker 4: There was a in the game where your hero goes
- 58:01Speaker 4: to a bar. He's a male hero and he goes
- 58:04Speaker 4: to a bar, and you can choose to go home
- 58:07Speaker 4: home with another man or another woman. You can choose
- 58:13Speaker 4: you don't, And so they built it in the game
- 58:15Speaker 4: where you can choose to go home with the bartender
- 58:18Speaker 4: or whatever. And I found that very it was very cool,
- 58:22Speaker 4: and he was hot for a video game. And I'm
- 58:26Speaker 4: just worried that with Russia doing this that game manufacturers
- 58:31Speaker 4: who have now been very pro LGBTQ in like you say,
- 58:34Speaker 4: subtly putting it in their games, not being overly overt,
- 58:37Speaker 4: but putting it in there kind of in a subtle way.
- 58:41Speaker 4: They may decide to pull back because I imagine Russia
- 58:43Speaker 4: is a pretty big market for gaming, so they you know,
- 58:47Speaker 4: so we'll see or maybe they'll do two different versions
- 58:49Speaker 4: of a game. I don't know, but I do know
- 58:53Speaker 4: that it's in linement that Russia is trying to do,
- 58:55Speaker 4: which is Russia. In Vladimir Putin's mind, if you make
- 59:01Speaker 4: all these laws, if you stop disseminating information, if you
- 59:05Speaker 4: take all the gays off TV, if you take them
- 59:08Speaker 4: out a video game, in his mind, then you won't
- 59:11Speaker 4: have any gays. And of course we know that Vladimir
- 59:15Speaker 4: Putin is completely wrong about that. All right, I am Corell.
- 59:18Speaker 4: I want you to be who you want to be.
- 59:19Speaker 4: Son to hurt anybody tomorrow. Eric Dane, he has als
- 59:23Speaker 4: and I was lucky enough to view a press conference
- 59:28Speaker 4: he did. They gave me access to that. I'm going
- 59:31Speaker 4: to play it here because people with disabilities deserve to
- 59:34Speaker 4: be hurt as well. We'll see you tomorrow. Have a
- 59:38Speaker 4: happy December twenty ninth, and a happy New Year's week,
- 59:42Speaker 4: and yeah, I'll be here with you all week.
- 59:44Speaker 8: So it's bloodcasting from a completely different point of view yours.
