- 0:01Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
- 0:05Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Friday morning, twentieth day of September. I'm Wes, thanks for
- 0:13Speaker 2: joining me. Hope you got a big weekend in store
- 0:17Speaker 2: for you. Whatever that means for you, whether it's a
- 0:20Speaker 2: relaxing weekend, whether it's a weekend full of sports with
- 0:25Speaker 2: your kid or kids, whether it's you know, go into
- 0:30Speaker 2: a game, just go into a move, whatever, whatever it is,
- 0:35Speaker 2: that would be a big weekend for you. I hope
- 0:37Speaker 2: that you can have that this weekend. That's what I
- 0:39Speaker 2: hope for whatever, because it means something different for each
- 0:41Speaker 2: of us, doesn't it. And some weekends you think, man
- 0:45Speaker 2: I would love to just have, you know, a laid
- 0:48Speaker 2: back weekend, but you got big plans and you got
- 0:50Speaker 2: things you got to go do, and there's all these activities,
- 0:52Speaker 2: and you think, man I just wanted to stay at home.
- 0:54Speaker 2: And then you go do those activities and they were
- 0:56Speaker 2: exactly what you needed and you didn't really need to
- 0:59Speaker 2: sit at home and relax. And then sometimes you go
- 1:01Speaker 2: and you think, man I want to go do all
- 1:03Speaker 2: these things, and you think what I would have done
- 1:05Speaker 2: just to stay at home and relax A couple of hours,
- 1:09Speaker 2: maybe in front of the TV watching sports. I don't know,
- 1:12Speaker 2: whatever it is that's your thing, binge watching every episode
- 1:17Speaker 2: of some show whatever. I don't know. That can't be
- 1:20Speaker 2: good for you. I've done the binging. I do the
- 1:23Speaker 2: binging sometimes. A lot of my binging, though, tends to
- 1:26Speaker 2: be kind of just background stuff. More often than not,
- 1:29Speaker 2: it's something I've probably seen before, and I just kind
- 1:32Speaker 2: of have it on in the background. It's one of
- 1:34Speaker 2: my things. It helps just I don't have to pay
- 1:36Speaker 2: attention to it. I can remember some jokes from it
- 1:39Speaker 2: or some scenes from it. I can't watch the high
- 1:41Speaker 2: stress stuff a second time, not typically, unless I'm really
- 1:45Speaker 2: like revisiting like The Sopranos or I'm revisiting Breaking Bad,
- 1:48Speaker 2: then I'm gonna sit there and watch it. But if
- 1:50Speaker 2: it's something like a King of Queens, you just have
- 1:53Speaker 2: it on in the background Seinfeld whatever, So I can
- 1:56Speaker 2: do that in the background. But just sitting there watching
- 2:00Speaker 2: episode after episode of some intense show it's not healthy.
- 2:05Speaker 2: I've done it. It's not healthy. I try not to
- 2:07Speaker 2: do it if I can help it. Hey, speaking of
- 2:09Speaker 2: shows that are coming, and yes, I'm gonna get to
- 2:11Speaker 2: our strange and bizarre news and we got a really
- 2:13Speaker 2: gross one. I'm gonna be very careful on how we
- 2:16Speaker 2: cover this particular story. But there is a new version
- 2:21Speaker 2: of the Office. Now. There's been talk about a version
- 2:25Speaker 2: of The Office coming a reboot or whatever. That's going
- 2:28Speaker 2: to be an American one. You know, it started as
- 2:30Speaker 2: a British one, then it was an American one. And
- 2:33Speaker 2: now they have produced I guess eight episodes of an
- 2:37Speaker 2: Australian version of the Office, and the trailer is out now,
- 2:43Speaker 2: I guess it's coming to prime. And you know, I've got,
- 2:49Speaker 2: you know, a one in the house. I've got two
- 2:52Speaker 2: half Aussie's in the house where we have that lean right,
- 2:58Speaker 2: and I mean they've they've basic adopted me, you know,
- 3:01Speaker 2: the country. That's my second home. We're looking forward to it.
- 3:06Speaker 2: We watched the trailer and we thought, okay, this has
- 3:08Speaker 2: some potential. It seems to have some similarities enough similarities
- 3:13Speaker 2: to what we're familiar with with the Office, while also
- 3:16Speaker 2: giving us some good Australian humor in it. So be
- 3:19Speaker 2: on the lookout. I don't know when it starts. I
- 3:21Speaker 2: guess I should have paid attention to that. Maybe I'll
- 3:23Speaker 2: let all eight episodes come out and just binge all
- 3:25Speaker 2: of it. I don't know. All right, let's get into it.
- 3:28Speaker 2: Strange and bizarre news. The really gross one I'm gonna
- 3:32Speaker 2: save for later unless you want me to just get
- 3:36Speaker 2: it out of the way. I mean, I can just
- 3:38Speaker 2: get it out of the way now and we can
- 3:40Speaker 2: be done with it. I'm gonna be delicate. All right,
- 3:43Speaker 2: let's do it. Let's just get it out of the
- 3:44Speaker 2: way and then we can enjoy the rest of the
- 3:46Speaker 2: weird news. How about that. We start in Washington, d C.
- 3:50Speaker 2: Where a woman who had installed a security camera outside
- 3:53Speaker 2: her home as a you know, general crime deterrent. That's
- 3:55Speaker 2: what people do with security cameras. They want to keep
- 3:58Speaker 2: an eye on what's going on. She thought, Hey, maybe
- 4:01Speaker 2: this will keep an eye on the front of my house.
- 4:04Speaker 2: You know, that's what you want, the front door. Maybe
- 4:06Speaker 2: you get some packages delivered whatever, you don't want anybody
- 4:09Speaker 2: stealing them. And sometimes the camera tells you things about
- 4:15Speaker 2: other people that live in this world that we're all
- 4:17Speaker 2: trying to coexist in that you maybe didn't want to know.
- 4:22Speaker 2: Catherine Baker, on her video camera, discovered there was a
- 4:27Speaker 2: man carrying a lunchbox appeared in her driveway. Okay, that's
- 4:32Speaker 2: a little scary. But perhaps he's, you know, wandered up
- 4:36Speaker 2: to the wrong house. Maybe he's a worker looking for
- 4:40Speaker 2: somewhere he's going to be doing some work, and he's
- 4:42Speaker 2: got his lunch box in hand. That's not exactly the case, apparently,
- 4:46Speaker 2: because he took a cucumber out of his lunch box
- 4:52Speaker 2: and shoved it into the front grill of her car.
- 4:55Speaker 2: Now that seems, you know, like this is basically somebody
- 4:59Speaker 2: who's maybe trying to damage the car. Right that, there's
- 5:01Speaker 2: something strange about it. That is not a normal sort
- 5:06Speaker 2: of thing. It's vandalism, is what it sounds like. It's
- 5:09Speaker 2: not a banana in the tailpipe, a lah Beverly Hills cop.
- 5:13Speaker 2: You know, you're not gonna get us with a banana
- 5:15Speaker 2: and the tailpipe. It's not that, that's not what it is.
- 5:20Speaker 2: It's something else. Moments later, he looked around to see
- 5:23Speaker 2: if anybody was watching. Uh. He then took the I
- 5:28Speaker 2: guess with the cucumber maybe in the grille of the car.
- 5:32Speaker 2: I guess still there. It's not very clear. Uh. It
- 5:37Speaker 2: sort of entertained himself with it. Uh, you know, dropped
- 5:44Speaker 2: trow so to speak, and did things to the cucumber.
- 5:49Speaker 2: I then put it back in his lunchbox and walked away.
- 5:53Speaker 2: Baker said, I was disgusted and freaked out. That's two
- 5:57Speaker 2: accurate descriptions of what it would be like to witness that.
- 6:01Speaker 2: I assume I haven't seen the video, nor do I
- 6:03Speaker 2: want to. She shared the video with police and the public, saying,
- 6:08Speaker 2: I want people. I want my neighbors to know and
- 6:10Speaker 2: to keep an eye out for this person. I want
- 6:12Speaker 2: parents to be mindful. There's a lot of kids, there's
- 6:15Speaker 2: a high school, students, they walk themselves to and from school,
- 6:19Speaker 2: but we all have to be vigilant about this kind
- 6:22Speaker 2: of thing. Who knew that that was even a kind
- 6:25Speaker 2: of thing, but apparently it is. Let's talk about a
- 6:29Speaker 2: traffic jam in California when a crash that involved at
- 6:34Speaker 2: two semis and a pickup truck caused one of the
- 6:38Speaker 2: rigs to spill an entire load of grapes. Crash occurred
- 6:43Speaker 2: on Highway one sixty five in this Mercid County in California.
- 6:51Speaker 2: The cause of the three truck crash under investigation. The
- 6:54Speaker 2: trucks haull full of grapes spilled out on the road
- 6:57Speaker 2: and of course, was crushed by passing card, creating a
- 7:00Speaker 2: very slippery and hazardous mess. Both directions of traffic were
- 7:04Speaker 2: shut down. His cleanup crews worked to clean up the mess,
- 7:07Speaker 2: remove the wreckage. No injuries reported. A little sugar mixed
- 7:11Speaker 2: into these smashed up grapes, Maybe it would have been
- 7:15Speaker 2: worth scraping up and putting in some jars. Maybe I
- 7:18Speaker 2: don't know. Let's go to Maine now. Members of a
- 7:20Speaker 2: jury went above and beyond the call of duty last
- 7:23Speaker 2: week when they convicted a man and then tackled him
- 7:27Speaker 2: outside when he attempted to escape. Thirty one year old
- 7:31Speaker 2: Nicholas Carter. I assume that's not Nick Carter, A right
- 7:37Speaker 2: was convicted of He's older than that isn't He was
- 7:39Speaker 2: convicted of assaulting a child and then tried to make
- 7:42Speaker 2: a run for it in his handcuffs. Surveillance footage showed
- 7:47Speaker 2: him running down the hallway and then out into the street.
- 7:49Speaker 2: A couple of jurors chased after him and detained him
- 7:52Speaker 2: when he tripped and fell. A sheriff's deputy was close
- 7:55Speaker 2: behind and then apprehended him. Carter had been found guilty
- 7:58Speaker 2: of assaulting a fourteen month. Lad Child faces additional charges
- 8:03Speaker 2: connected to his attempted escape. A Miami man who sold
- 8:08Speaker 2: his mega mansion for a discounted price of just seventy
- 8:12Speaker 2: nine million dollars is now suing the real estate agent.
- 8:15Speaker 2: When he found out who the buyer was. Leo Chris
- 8:20Speaker 2: listed his home in Indian Creek Village, a haven for
- 8:23Speaker 2: billionaires on a private island, for eighty five million dollars.
- 8:27Speaker 2: An agent with Douglas's Element Real Estate came to him
- 8:31Speaker 2: with the client's offer of seventy nine million. Chris suspected
- 8:36Speaker 2: that the client might be Jeff Bezos because he had
- 8:40Speaker 2: heard that the Amazon founder had been purchasing some of
- 8:43Speaker 2: the neighboring homes, but the agent told him the buyer
- 8:46Speaker 2: is not Jeff Bezos and the buyer will not pay
- 8:50Speaker 2: more than that seventy nine million dollar offer. Chris accepted
- 8:54Speaker 2: the discounted offer. After the closing, the regional CEO of
- 8:58Speaker 2: Douglas Eleman Chris an email revealing that it was Jeff
- 9:02Speaker 2: Bezos who actually was indeed the buyer, and it swore
- 9:07Speaker 2: that he did not know. Chris is now suing Douglas Ellman,
- 9:14Speaker 2: arguing that he was duped and would never have accepted
- 9:17Speaker 2: the offer if he had known that the buyer was Bezos.
- 9:23Speaker 2: He's asking the company to pay him the difference of
- 9:25Speaker 2: six million dollars because he says, you know, that's what
- 9:29Speaker 2: he would have asked for if he had known it
- 9:31Speaker 2: was someone who certainly had that extra six million dollars.
- 9:34Speaker 2: I think that's a fair request. Sometimes you hear about
- 9:37Speaker 2: these lawsuits and you think, as and I know, we're
- 9:40Speaker 2: talking about the difference of six million dollars, which when
- 9:43Speaker 2: you're throwing around seventy nine or eighty five million or whatever,
- 9:47Speaker 2: it might not seem like a lot of money, but
- 9:49Speaker 2: it's it's six million dollars. That's six million dollars no
- 9:54Speaker 2: matter how you cut it. And quite frankly, if you're
- 9:58Speaker 2: selling your house for seventy nine million, that doesn't necessarily
- 10:03Speaker 2: make you Jeff Bezos rich. So I just keep that
- 10:05Speaker 2: in mind as well. Florida man fell out of a
- 10:08Speaker 2: boat earlier this week that landed him in jail. At
- 10:11Speaker 2: Polk County Fire and Rescue responded to a call about
- 10:13Speaker 2: two boaters falling into a lake. When they arrived, they
- 10:17Speaker 2: had already been rescued by a man who jumped into
- 10:20Speaker 2: the water with pool noodles to save them. Both men
- 10:22Speaker 2: were checked out by medics and questioned by Sheriff's deputies.
- 10:25Speaker 2: One of the men provided a name that deputies suspected
- 10:28Speaker 2: might be fake, and a subsequent fingerprint check confirmed that
- 10:32Speaker 2: he was indeed lying about his name. The man was
- 10:35Speaker 2: identified as thirty six year old Timothy Lanthrop, and cops
- 10:39Speaker 2: saw that he had six active warrants out for his arrest.
- 10:43Speaker 2: He was allowed to dry off and then taken to
- 10:45Speaker 2: jail for giving false information to police. And I assume
- 10:50Speaker 2: connections to all of those outstanding warrants, you know, I can't.
- 10:55Speaker 2: They can't be the only thing they took him in for,
- 10:57Speaker 2: can it. An eight year old girl in a Ohio is safe, probably,
- 11:03Speaker 2: you know, in some trouble. Maybe he told no electronics
- 11:07Speaker 2: for a couple of days because she took her mother's
- 11:09Speaker 2: suv for a joy ride to Target to do some shopping.
- 11:13Speaker 2: It's unclear how the young girl got the keys or
- 11:16Speaker 2: was able to see over the steering wheel, but shockingly
- 11:19Speaker 2: managed to drive the vehicle ten miles to the store,
- 11:22Speaker 2: only hitting one mailbox on the way. That's a pretty
- 11:25Speaker 2: good average for a lot of drivers. I mean my
- 11:29Speaker 2: mailbox has been hit twice by drivers, and you know,
- 11:34Speaker 2: could have even been the same person. I don't know,
- 11:36Speaker 2: maybe it was a ten year old. When she arrived,
- 11:39Speaker 2: she parked in the lot, walked into the store. Police
- 11:42Speaker 2: were called and quickly located the SUV. Officers enter the
- 11:45Speaker 2: store found the girl safe and sound, enjoying a frappucino.
- 11:49Speaker 2: The Bedford Police Department allowed her to finish her drink
- 11:52Speaker 2: and then escorted her home to her mother. They also
- 11:55Speaker 2: admitted on social media that they were impressed with their
- 11:59Speaker 2: driving skills. See, you gotta be careful handing out compliments
- 12:01Speaker 2: like that, because you hand out a compliment like that
- 12:03Speaker 2: to a kid that could encourage them to do it again.
- 12:08Speaker 2: And you let her finish the frappuccino. Oh that's nice
- 12:10Speaker 2: of them. I think it's funny that that's what she
- 12:12Speaker 2: goes to target, she gets frappuccino before doing all of
- 12:15Speaker 2: her shopping. I guess an Illinois man or she just
- 12:19Speaker 2: really needed a frappuccino, you know, like when your parents say,
- 12:22Speaker 2: we got McDonald's at home. We don't have Starbucks at home.
- 12:26Speaker 2: Not a frappuccino. Anyway, an Illinois man is under arrest
- 12:30Speaker 2: in charge with attempted murder for stabbing his roommate after
- 12:33Speaker 2: getting into a heated argument an argument over peanut butter
- 12:37Speaker 2: and jelly piece in police in the cab, I don't
- 12:41Speaker 2: know how they pronounce it in Illinois, but that's how
- 12:43Speaker 2: we say it in Georgia. Say, twenty three year old
- 12:45Speaker 2: Jayvon Jay Owens stab the victim after the two argued
- 12:50Speaker 2: over a messy peanut butter and jelly sandwich that was
- 12:52Speaker 2: left on the kitchen counter. Owens is accused of stabbing
- 12:57Speaker 2: his sorry the other man with a butter knife five times. Wow.
- 13:03Speaker 2: I left him with lacerations to his hip, back, arm
- 13:08Speaker 2: and shoulders. SORR. I'm trying to edit this on the
- 13:09Speaker 2: fly because I don't want to be too graphic. The
- 13:12Speaker 2: victim was transported to the hospital in serious condition. He
- 13:14Speaker 2: told police that he believed Owens was trying to kill him.
- 13:18Speaker 2: Owens has a history of violent crimes, including five incidents
- 13:21Speaker 2: which occurred over the last eighteen months. It's it's interesting
- 13:26Speaker 2: who people choose to have as their roommate. That's all
- 13:29Speaker 2: I got to say about that. You know, you got
- 13:30Speaker 2: choices sometimes, and I know sometimes you don't. And I
- 13:34Speaker 2: don't know the specific circumstances of why their roommates, But
- 13:37Speaker 2: if you've got a roommate that you know as a
- 13:40Speaker 2: tendency to be very violent, I would think, if it's possible,
- 13:45Speaker 2: maybe you, you know, either you move out or you
- 13:48Speaker 2: ask them maybe could you maybe look for somewhere else
- 13:51Speaker 2: to live, Because I don't know that this living arrangement
- 13:54Speaker 2: is going to be good considering, you know, the last
- 13:56Speaker 2: eighteen months of your life. I'm just lobbing that out
- 13:59Speaker 2: there for other people who maybe live with people that
- 14:03Speaker 2: have a long history of violent crime. And finally, ambulances
- 14:09Speaker 2: normally take people to the hospital, not away from the hospital,
- 14:14Speaker 2: but apparently in New York, that's what happened. Police say
- 14:17Speaker 2: a patient had been discharged from the emergency room when
- 14:20Speaker 2: he jumped into a parked ambulance outside and drove away.
- 14:23Speaker 2: Police say forty one year old Ernest Burkette led them
- 14:26Speaker 2: on a high speed chase for thirty minutes and through
- 14:29Speaker 2: six different towns, occasionally hitting police cars and ultimately crashing
- 14:34Speaker 2: into a pole and flipping over. Sounds like the kid
- 14:37Speaker 2: was a better driver. The eight year old Briquette was
- 14:40Speaker 2: immediately taken into custody, given another ride in the ambulance
- 14:44Speaker 2: back to the hospital, treated for minor injuries, and charged
- 14:47Speaker 2: with reckless endangerment, criminal possession of stolen property, grand larceny,
- 14:53Speaker 2: unlawful fleeing of a police officer, and criminal mischief. You know,
- 15:00Speaker 2: if maybe he had just gotten the eight year old
- 15:03Speaker 2: to drive him from the hospital, he might not have
- 15:06Speaker 2: gotten quite as bang Thump. Today's show brought to you
- 15:08Speaker 2: by Columbus State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center, inspiring

- 16:00Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 16:05Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 16:07Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 16:11Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens

- 16:38Speaker 2: outside the city lights. You don't want any light interference,
- 16:40Speaker 2: and you can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night events.
- 16:44Speaker 2: Also on their website, it's CCSSC dot org. As Sean
- 16:48Speaker 2: Crusan says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I just
- 16:53Speaker 2: remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science
- 16:56Speaker 2: Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by
- 17:01Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage
- 17:04Speaker 2: door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
- 17:10Speaker 2: that it's time for it's always good to get maintenance
- 17:13Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 17:17Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 17:21Speaker 2: care of square and that away for you, and while
- 17:22Speaker 2: they're there, you can always ask them questions about some
- 17:25Speaker 2: of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to
- 17:28Speaker 2: your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what
- 17:32Speaker 2: you want it to be and you need some repair
- 17:34Speaker 2: work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a
- 17:36Speaker 2: brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise
- 17:40Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
- 17:44Speaker 2: sort of installation issue that you've got with colder or
- 17:47Speaker 2: warmer weather, Sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
- 17:51Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
- 17:53Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
- 17:56Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
- 17:59Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know,
- 18:03Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
- 18:05Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man cavid you'd
- 18:08Speaker 2: like to be able to open the door up and
- 18:09Speaker 2: not invite all the insects in. They can do that
- 18:12Speaker 2: for you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
- 18:15Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
- 18:17Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
- 18:21Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, And they do
- 18:24Speaker 2: those as well. Seven O six thy five eight forty

- 18:34Speaker 2: Right after the break. With fall fast approaching and us
- 18:46Speaker 2: getting out of the summer season, many of us have
- 18:51Speaker 2: done the vacation season, and now we start looking ahead
- 18:55Speaker 2: to the fall and winter vacation season. Bod He enjoys
- 19:00Speaker 2: a good vacation, right, but not everybody likes getting ready
- 19:03Speaker 2: for vacations. A new survey found that getting ready to
- 19:07Speaker 2: go on vacation feels like a job, with the average
- 19:10Speaker 2: person saying they have at least six chores on their
- 19:13Speaker 2: to do list before they go. Some of the things
- 19:16Speaker 2: at the top of the to do list packing, doing
- 19:19Speaker 2: last minute shopping, cleaning the house, making sure friends and
- 19:22Speaker 2: family have a key to the house in case of
- 19:24Speaker 2: an emergency, Arranging for someone to take care of the pet,
- 19:28Speaker 2: cleaning out the fridge, arranging transportation and unplugging appliances. Seeking
- 19:34Speaker 2: extra peace of mind, Vacationers typically perform two last looks
- 19:38Speaker 2: around the house to make sure they didn't forget anything
- 19:40Speaker 2: and that everything is in order before they leave. Despite that,
- 19:44Speaker 2: twenty two percent often turn the car around and go
- 19:47Speaker 2: back home to get something they forgot or do one
- 19:49Speaker 2: final check before continuing their trip. I married a list
- 19:57Speaker 2: maker and a very organized human and being, and she
- 20:02Speaker 2: is great about getting making sure we get everything we
- 20:05Speaker 2: need for vacation every time without fail. And I have
- 20:10Speaker 2: a very different system of doing things, a different way
- 20:13Speaker 2: of packing, but her organization. She's got lists for Oh
- 20:16Speaker 2: we're going camping, Oh we're going overseas to Australia. Oh
- 20:21Speaker 2: we're going you know, over to visit friends for a
- 20:24Speaker 2: couple of days in another town or whatever. Family. She's
- 20:28Speaker 2: got all of those lists, every single one of those.
- 20:30Speaker 2: She's prepared for all of those scenarios. Now, there are
- 20:33Speaker 2: things that we just named that stress people out that
- 20:35Speaker 2: I take care of, but she's very organized with those things.
- 20:40Speaker 2: So I'm very blessed in that regard. A lot of
- 20:41Speaker 2: that stuff people stress out about, I don't have to
- 20:43Speaker 2: stress about. I guess she's probably stressing about it. Though,
- 20:48Speaker 2: does gen Z have a love hate relationship with social
- 20:50Speaker 2: media despite the fact that they spend much of their
- 20:53Speaker 2: lives on it. A surprising new survey finds that half
- 20:56Speaker 2: of gen Z wishes social media had never been invented,
- 20:59Speaker 2: seen that many young people feel that platforms like TikTok
- 21:04Speaker 2: x and Instagram do more harm than good. While sixty
- 21:07Speaker 2: percent of gen Z spends about four hours a day
- 21:10Speaker 2: on social media and twenty three percent spends seven or
- 21:14Speaker 2: more hours a day scrolling yikes, a significant portion feels
- 21:18Speaker 2: that it's negatively impacting their mental health. Well, it's taken
- 21:22Speaker 2: a lot of their time, isn't it. Women in LGBTQ
- 21:25Speaker 2: plus individuals report feeling the brunt of these negative effects
- 21:29Speaker 2: more than others. It's basically a love hate relationship with
- 21:33Speaker 2: their screens as they juggle the addictive pull of social
- 21:36Speaker 2: media with a longing for simpler times. I think being
- 21:42Speaker 2: able to just manage the time on it would help,
- 21:45Speaker 2: you know, seven plus hours a day, that's a lot.
- 21:50Speaker 2: A new study on coffee proving that more great news
- 21:53Speaker 2: for those who enjoy multiple cups of coffee a day.
- 21:56Speaker 2: The study published this week in the Journal of Clinical
- 22:00Speaker 2: into Chronology, and metabolism found that drinking multiple cups of
- 22:04Speaker 2: caffeinated coffee or tea each day may protect you against
- 22:07Speaker 2: type two diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. Researchers studied one
- 22:12Speaker 2: hundred and eighty eight thousand people over the course of
- 22:14Speaker 2: twelve years and determined that the ideal amount of caffeine
- 22:17Speaker 2: to drink each day is two hundred to three hundred milligrams,
- 22:20Speaker 2: and that's up to three cups of coffee or tea
- 22:25Speaker 2: per day. Jimmy Dean is celebrating the launch of a
