Latest / The Wes Carroll Morning Show / Who Elected the People Using Autosignatures?
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews you need to start
- 0:05Speaker 1: your day when you're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, twelfth day of March. I'm wes, thanks for
- 0:15Speaker 2: joining me as we zipping on through this week, aren't we. Yeah,
- 0:21Speaker 2: we are a little reaction out of state of Michigan,
- 0:25Speaker 2: a state carried by Trump, one of those battleground states
- 0:28Speaker 2: that Trump carried as the Senator Slotkin who went on
- 0:38Speaker 2: and gave the post speech rebuttal a week ago, a
- 0:42Speaker 2: little over a week ago when Trump addressed Congress, and
- 0:46Speaker 2: she made sure everybody knew who she was because nobody knew.
- 0:51Speaker 2: Trump made his joke about that country in Africa that
- 0:54Speaker 2: I can't think of the name of, to be honest,
- 0:56Speaker 2: at the top off the top of my head, and
- 0:58Speaker 2: the country got a bunch of searches on Google, and
- 1:02Speaker 2: they were a boy, they were angry. But I would
- 1:05Speaker 2: I think, you know, if he wants to say nobody's
- 1:08Speaker 2: ever heard of me and get some hits and interest
- 1:13Speaker 2: on my shows, I would love that, don't I don't
- 1:16Speaker 2: think I'd have a pride to see the positive in that.
- 1:18Speaker 2: But anyway, so Lissa Slotkin, I guess went on the view.
- 1:24Speaker 2: That's the goal. Now as you get on the view
- 1:26Speaker 2: and I don't know, you get on there and you
- 1:29Speaker 2: prattle off something, and some folks not happy about what
- 1:33Speaker 2: she said. This is she talked about. She's representing a
- 1:39Speaker 2: state here talking about Michigan. People voted for Trump and
- 1:42Speaker 2: voted for me. I have a responsibility to represent my
- 1:45Speaker 2: entire state. But I don't think there's anyone who feels
- 1:49Speaker 2: like what's going on now is normal, even if you
- 1:51Speaker 2: voted for Trump, right, I think this there is a
- 1:54Speaker 2: feeling in this country. And I often say this. You know,
- 1:57Speaker 2: we're about to turn two hundred and fifty years old, right,
- 2:00Speaker 2: We're still pretty young for a country. These are like
- 2:03Speaker 2: our angry teenage years. We're going through this push and
- 2:06Speaker 2: pull where we're happy, we're sad, we want this, we
- 2:10Speaker 2: want that. And what do you do when you have
- 2:12Speaker 2: a teenager threatening themselves and others. You just try to
- 2:15Speaker 2: get them through this period alive so that their brain
- 2:17Speaker 2: can fully form and you can come back to kind
- 2:22Speaker 2: of what And Joey Behar asked her if she was
- 2:27Speaker 2: talking about Trump, and she says, no, I'm talking about
- 2:29Speaker 2: her country. We're a pendulum swinging. We're a pendulum swinging.
- 2:34Speaker 2: I don't think there is an American that thinks this
- 2:36Speaker 2: is normal, and that, of course didn't sit well with
- 2:40Speaker 2: many conservatives. A couple things here that I'd like to say.
- 2:44Speaker 2: First of all, trying to equate everything that's going on
- 2:50Speaker 2: in the country to angry teenage years a little child.
- 2:57Speaker 2: I mean, you're saying it's a young country, but we're
- 3:01Speaker 2: not teenagers. I mean, that's the other part of this.
- 3:04Speaker 2: I understand. I guess where she's trying to go with
- 3:06Speaker 2: this analogy, but that's the problem. The pendulum comment, however,
- 3:12Speaker 2: I think is accurate. And you've heard me say this
- 3:14Speaker 2: before radio and here I'll say that because it is
- 3:19Speaker 2: we do experience that, and sometimes we go ridiculously far
- 3:25Speaker 2: to one direction and then we go back the other
- 3:27Speaker 2: direction even more. And that's the way it works. Now,
- 3:32Speaker 2: if she really thinks that we're going to try to
- 3:35Speaker 2: do something about that and that that's the problem, something
- 3:39Speaker 2: has to happen to slow the momentum when it comes
- 3:41Speaker 2: back the other way, and eventually it will. It's early
- 3:45Speaker 2: to be talking about that, because we are still in
- 3:48Speaker 2: this swing heading to the right, so we don't know
- 3:51Speaker 2: how far to the right it's going to go. But
- 3:53Speaker 2: if you want to slow down the momentum, the first
- 3:55Speaker 2: thing you've got to do is stop insulting the people
- 3:57Speaker 2: who voted for the person who's the president because you
- 3:59Speaker 2: don't like them, and you don't like the people who
- 4:03Speaker 2: did it, and you think that they're immature teenagers or
- 4:05Speaker 2: whatever it is you're trying to accuse the American voter
- 4:09Speaker 2: of being. So, if you want to make a difference,
- 4:13Speaker 2: and you actually want to do something to change this trend,
- 4:18Speaker 2: it starts with you. And you're in a position where
- 4:23Speaker 2: you're new to this game, you're new to all of this.
- 4:26Speaker 2: You've got a couple of choices. Are you going to
- 4:28Speaker 2: dig in and you're going to be the squad? Are
- 4:30Speaker 2: you going to dig in, are you're going to be
- 4:32Speaker 2: Nancy Pelosi? Or are you going to say, I'm going
- 4:35Speaker 2: to be closer to John Fetterman, I'm going to be
- 4:37Speaker 2: closer to Joe Manchin, I'm going to be closer to
- 4:40Speaker 2: Kirsten Cinema. You're gonna be closer with these people that
- 4:42Speaker 2: actually is trying to hear both sides of the discussion
- 4:45Speaker 2: and do something different with it. That's the choice. That
- 4:48Speaker 2: she has. That's the choice that everyone now has in
- 4:51Speaker 2: our government. And if the natural progression of things is
- 4:55Speaker 2: just dig in and wait for the pendulum to come
- 4:58Speaker 2: back the other way and get as as far as
- 5:00Speaker 2: possible so that you can feel like you've accomplished something,
- 5:04Speaker 2: that's the only way you have to stop the momentum
- 5:06Speaker 2: of the pendulum. And I realize that's also an analogy
- 5:09Speaker 2: that we're using, but it's it's kind of the way
- 5:11Speaker 2: that things play out, and it's the way things have
- 5:14Speaker 2: been for a little while now. Okay, so another quick
- 5:20Speaker 2: thing we're going to touch on here, the President buying
- 5:23Speaker 2: his new Tesla that was being teased all day yesterday.
- 5:28Speaker 2: He bought himself. He bought himself a red Tesla model
- 5:31Speaker 2: s he's going to pay full price for it. He says.
- 5:35Speaker 2: It's he's supporting Elon's company. Folks are bailing on Elon
- 5:41Speaker 2: Musk projects. Apparently we told you earlier in the week.
- 5:44Speaker 2: They're celebrating some complications that they've had with SpaceX, and
- 5:52Speaker 2: I told you point blank SpaceX the company. The chief
- 5:57Speaker 2: operating officer at SpaceX is a woman, Gwen Shotwell, you
- 6:02Speaker 2: want to go after the person responsible for whatever's happening
- 6:05Speaker 2: at SpaceX, that's probably where you should start. SpaceX is
- 6:10Speaker 2: certainly the president, CEO, whatever of the company, you know,
- 6:15Speaker 2: but he's not the COO, and he's doing other things.
- 6:19Speaker 2: This is not someone who is currently there running things.
- 6:24Speaker 2: But SpaceX does have a philosophy of agile development, and
- 6:27Speaker 2: we talk about that on Made of Stars most weeks.
- 6:30Speaker 2: Whenever something happens, especially when there's something like an explosion
- 6:34Speaker 2: with one of the SpaceX craft they're testing. These are
- 6:39Speaker 2: test flights. That's what they do. They test a rocket.
- 6:43Speaker 2: If it explodes, they go, what happened, Now, let's fix
- 6:47Speaker 2: that and let's get another rocket up as soon as possible.
- 6:51Speaker 2: SpaceX is not a company that says, hey, let's take
- 6:56Speaker 2: nine months or two years to do another launch. We're
- 6:59Speaker 2: going to get the thing up in the air again,
- 7:01Speaker 2: because when that one doesn't work, we want to know
- 7:04Speaker 2: why it didn't work. That's what the company does. And
- 7:07Speaker 2: people have decided that it's a joke now that space
- 7:10Speaker 2: and of course, one of the things that completely got
- 7:14Speaker 2: missed about SpaceX and the latest Starship launch is that
- 7:19Speaker 2: they still caught the booster in the chopsticks. No one's
- 7:22Speaker 2: doing anything close to that anywhere else in the world.
- 7:26Speaker 2: SpaceX is reusing parts and they're cutting down cost. They're
- 7:31Speaker 2: dealing with sustainability in a way that no one else
- 7:35Speaker 2: can even come close. They can't even comprehend it. And again,
- 7:39Speaker 2: SpaceX responsible for ninety percent of the launches from planet
- 7:43Speaker 2: Earth into space. So this is not a situation where
- 7:49Speaker 2: you can say anything that SpaceX has done is a failure.
- 7:51Speaker 2: They're the only ride from US soil to space. But
- 7:55Speaker 2: people are going after them, and they're going after a
- 7:57Speaker 2: tesla and I've seen people, you know, they call them
- 8:00Speaker 2: Nazi cars and all those sorts of things. Ha ha,
- 8:02Speaker 2: that's it's clit. So I saw someone who posted on
- 8:08Speaker 2: social media yesterday, someone I know not not very well,
- 8:14Speaker 2: subject of an interview that I did once, and they
- 8:16Speaker 2: made a comment about how, you know, Elon's company's struggling
- 8:20Speaker 2: to do business and how he's having a hard time
- 8:23Speaker 2: right now doing business because of things going on. And
- 8:27Speaker 2: this person associated where you're associated with Donald Trump, that's
- 8:30Speaker 2: why people don't want to do business with you. And
- 8:34Speaker 2: I think it's more than that. I think it probably
- 8:36Speaker 2: has something to do with the fact that people are
- 8:38Speaker 2: calling him a Nazi people are asking who appointed this guy?
- 8:42Speaker 2: Nobody voted for this guy to be in charge of DOGE.
- 8:47Speaker 2: I think the Nazi thing is probably the biggest thing,
- 8:50Speaker 2: because I told you yesterday. I think the Nazi thing
- 8:54Speaker 2: is is this is this Manchurian candidate thing. It's this
- 8:57Speaker 2: They're trying to trigger some sort of pro It's like
- 9:01Speaker 2: Bucky from the Marvel movies. Right. The coding and the
- 9:05Speaker 2: programming is there for somebody out there, and if they
- 9:08Speaker 2: call him a Nazi enough, something's gonna make him go.
- 9:11Speaker 2: We got to go kill Baby Hitler because I think
- 9:14Speaker 2: most people have accepted that if they had an opportunity
- 9:16Speaker 2: to go back in time and kill Baby Hitler and
- 9:18Speaker 2: change things, that would be justified. Right. So you think, well,
- 9:23Speaker 2: if this guy is a Nazi and this guy is Hitler,
- 9:27Speaker 2: then maybe he should be killed. And that's what we
- 9:30Speaker 2: have that's just kind of floated out there just to
- 9:32Speaker 2: see what happens. It's gone through that with Trump, now
- 9:34Speaker 2: it's going through that with Elon Musk, and yeah, it's
- 9:36Speaker 2: going to have an impact on how he does business
- 9:38Speaker 2: and how business works for him. So Trump bought himself
- 9:45Speaker 2: a tesla, paying full price. He said in front of a reporter.
- 9:49Speaker 2: He's going to write him the check and pay forward
- 9:51Speaker 2: in full. So there you go. But yeah, I don't
- 9:55Speaker 2: think it's fair to say that it's just an association
- 9:58Speaker 2: with Trump. Also, another quick reminder if you're hung up
- 10:01Speaker 2: on the fact that who voted for Elon Musk and
- 10:04Speaker 2: how did he get this job? To be the guy
- 10:07Speaker 2: that's there, you know, working as representing Doge on his
- 10:13Speaker 2: own dollar. By the way, he's not getting paid to
- 10:15Speaker 2: do it. The only person in the cabinet really that's
- 10:20Speaker 2: elected as the president. I mean you could say the
- 10:22Speaker 2: vice president is on the ticket as well. So that's
- 10:24Speaker 2: the two that are voted for. The rest of them
- 10:28Speaker 2: appointed by the president. And this is another appointment by
- 10:33Speaker 2: the president. That's what he is, that's who put him there.
- 10:37Speaker 2: So by voting for the president, you're ultimately voting for
- 10:41Speaker 2: the cabinet and the people that are appointed at these positions.
- 10:46Speaker 2: So yeah, in a way, he was voted on for this.
- 10:50Speaker 2: And when people ask that question, well, wo what does
- 10:52Speaker 2: he get to do it? That's why last thing this morning,
- 10:57Speaker 2: I kind of feel like this could be a whole show,
- 10:59Speaker 2: but I just want to talk a man about this
- 11:02Speaker 2: auto sign thing. President of the United States, previous president,
- 11:09Speaker 2: but a president of the United States having folks signing
- 11:12Speaker 2: documents on his behalf using his auto signature. Look, I
- 11:18Speaker 2: feel like we need more information about all this. I've
- 11:21Speaker 2: seen accusations that say that Biden was on vacation, he
- 11:26Speaker 2: was at the beach, and he was signing documents while
- 11:30Speaker 2: at the beach, and it wasn't him. I don't think
- 11:35Speaker 2: it's any shock at all that he was definitely not
- 11:40Speaker 2: running the country at least the majority of the time
- 11:44Speaker 2: he was president. I don't know that he was capable
- 11:48Speaker 2: at any point to actually run the country. But the
- 11:53Speaker 2: people who are concerned about Elon Musk, and they say
- 11:57Speaker 2: who elected this guy? Anything? If they don't have a
- 12:02Speaker 2: problem with the fact that we had an a sleep
- 12:06Speaker 2: at the wheel president and all these people that no
- 12:10Speaker 2: one elected were running the country. If you're concerned, you
- 12:15Speaker 2: know who Elon Musk is. You know what he's doing.
- 12:19Speaker 2: He's open about what he's doing, and he's sharing his
- 12:24Speaker 2: information about what he's doing. Right, he's given you updates.
- 12:29Speaker 2: We don't know who was auto signing documents on behalf
- 12:34Speaker 2: of the Biden administration, on behalf of the president. Some
- 12:38Speaker 2: of the things that people have said were signed were
- 12:41Speaker 2: some of his pardons. So do those pardons count? Do
- 12:45Speaker 2: any of the documents count if he was auto signing?
- 12:52Speaker 2: I don't know. Executive orders do those count? All these
- 12:56Speaker 2: things are being challenged and they should be in court.
- 13:00Speaker 2: Can you sign on behalf of a president without even
- 13:05Speaker 2: running it by them? I mentioned that the Speaker of
- 13:09Speaker 2: the House, Mike Johnson, said that when he finally met
- 13:13Speaker 2: with Joe Biden for the first time, and they made
- 13:16Speaker 2: sure he was surrounded by kind of the regulars the crew, right,
- 13:25Speaker 2: you had Schumer there, you had Pelosi there, whoever they
- 13:28Speaker 2: could get in the room, the Vice president, and they
- 13:33Speaker 2: finally said we're gonna He wanted to clear the room,
- 13:36Speaker 2: and the president wanted to clear the room and talk
- 13:38Speaker 2: with Johnson, and Johnson said he was concerned about a
- 13:42Speaker 2: bill that was passed that was stopping gas coming out
- 13:44Speaker 2: natural gas coming out of Louisiana. Johnson state Biden said,
- 13:50Speaker 2: I didn't sign that. He said, you did, that that
- 13:53Speaker 2: was signed by you and he said no, no, no,
- 13:55Speaker 2: I didn't sign that. That's not what I signed. And
- 13:58Speaker 2: he told him he did, and he said, no, I
- 13:59Speaker 2: signed something that was going to be to study natural
- 14:04Speaker 2: gas and I was going to do a study for it.
- 14:08Speaker 2: So that's the story from Johnson, and some people believed it,
- 14:16Speaker 2: some people didn't want to believe it. And now that
- 14:20Speaker 2: we know this auto signed thing was a thing, then
- 14:26Speaker 2: makes it all much more believable, doesn't And it also
- 14:30Speaker 2: puts us in a position where we have to ask
- 14:32Speaker 2: the question, would that ever be okay? Has that happened
- 14:38Speaker 2: in the past, what presidents have been doing that? And
- 14:41Speaker 2: I know this is sort of newish technology, so I
- 14:44Speaker 2: hope we're not in a position where this has been
- 14:46Speaker 2: going on for long. I suppose people could have been
- 14:49Speaker 2: stepping in and signing things with the president's permission or
- 14:55Speaker 2: but I think when you have a president who wasn't
- 14:59Speaker 2: capable of finishing his reelection bid, and then again you
- 15:04Speaker 2: want to complain about somebody not being elected and you say, well,
- 15:08Speaker 2: Elon Musk wasn't elected, And you say, well, Kamala Harris
- 15:13Speaker 2: wasn't elected to be the candidate on the left, there
- 15:18Speaker 2: was no primary. When she was in a primary, she
- 15:22Speaker 2: lost horribly. So it's ridiculous that anyone on the left
- 15:29Speaker 2: is questioning, well, why is Elon Musk valid? Why is
- 15:33Speaker 2: anything that happened during the Biden administration valid, how much
- 15:36Speaker 2: of it was even something that he wanted to do,
- 15:41Speaker 2: how much of it was just being done without his knowledge,
- 15:44Speaker 2: and who was doing it? Those are questions you should
- 15:47Speaker 2: be asking before you worry about Elon Musk's authority. We
- 15:51Speaker 2: know that Donald Trump appointed him to this position. We
- 15:56Speaker 2: know that that is the responsibility that he's taken all
- 16:00Speaker 2: on at no salary, and to the detriment of some
- 16:03Speaker 2: of his companies because it's made people call him a Nazi.
- 16:07Speaker 2: So maybe that's the real question you should be asking
- 16:10Speaker 2: instead of who voted for him, And maybe just ask
- 16:15Speaker 2: who's signing the documents, who was signing them, and how
- 16:23Speaker 2: many of them did they sign and are they valid.
- 16:26Speaker 2: Today's show brought to you by Columba State University's Coca
- 16:29Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center, inspiring and educating the youth and
- 16:35Speaker 2: future STEM leaders and STEM career holders that really of
- 16:40Speaker 2: all ages. I mean, they do it for school age
- 16:43Speaker 2: kids as school age kids visit the Coca Cola Space
- 16:46Speaker 2: Science Center, but they also do it through their university
- 16:49Speaker 2: programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics, and the
- 16:54Speaker 2: careers in space and STEM fields are booming right now,
- 16:59Speaker 2: and you can learn more about maybe getting your degree
- 17:03Speaker 2: on their website CCSSC dot org. While you're there, also
- 17:09Speaker 2: check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got this
- 17:12Speaker 2: incredible collaboration that they do with the Schwob School of
- 17:16Speaker 2: Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome.
- 17:19Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 17:24Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 17:26Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 17:30Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
- 17:35Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
- 17:39Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center and the new season of Music
- 17:42Speaker 2: under the Dome. Check out upcoming dates for the shows,
- 17:47Speaker 2: and also check out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up.
- 17:50Speaker 2: Where you can get outside. Sometimes you do it at
- 17:53Speaker 2: the co Cola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside
- 17:57Speaker 2: somewhere outside the city lights you don't want any light interference.
- 18:00Speaker 2: You can do that as well. Upcoming Astronomy Night events
- 18:03Speaker 2: also on their website. It's CCSSC dot org. As Sean
- 18:07Speaker 2: Cruisin says, Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org. I just
- 18:12Speaker 2: remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science
- 18:15Speaker 2: Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by
- 18:20Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage
- 18:23Speaker 2: door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
- 18:29Speaker 2: that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance
- 18:32Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 18:36Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 18:40Speaker 2: care of squaring that away for you, and while they're there,
- 18:43Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
- 18:45Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
- 18:48Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
- 18:51Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
- 18:54Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
- 18:56Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
- 19:00Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
- 19:04Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather. Sometimes
- 19:07Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
- 19:11Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
- 19:13Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
- 19:16Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
- 19:19Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
- 19:22Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
- 19:24Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid, you'd like to
- 19:27Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
- 19:29Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
- 19:31Speaker 2: as well. And again they do after hours calls. There's
- 19:34Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
- 19:37Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
- 19:40Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
- 19:43Speaker 2: as well. Seven oh six thory five eight forty five

- 19:54Speaker 2: after the break well, there's a company called neo Gamma
- 20:05Speaker 2: and they are producing the world's first AI powered humanoid
- 20:10Speaker 2: robot butler, created by Norwegian robotics company one x I
- 20:17Speaker 2: Guess Neogamma is the actual robot prototype. The robot can
- 20:20Speaker 2: assist with a variety of household chores, laundry, vacuuming, washing windows,
- 20:25Speaker 2: and it can also serve food and drinks. It responds
- 20:28Speaker 2: to commands that can have simple conversations with you, and
- 20:32Speaker 2: to make the robot appear more human, they teamed up
- 20:34Speaker 2: with a Japanese manufacturer called Shima Sikai to I guess
- 20:39Speaker 2: it's Sikai. Maybe I'll watch too much Cobra Kai to
- 20:43Speaker 2: create the name of the tournament, create a soft, smooth
- 20:47Speaker 2: suit that covers the robot's metallic body. The one X CEO,
- 20:53Speaker 2: Burned Bornig says, in the near future, we will all
- 20:57Speaker 2: have our own household robots like rosy Or or Bamax. So,
- 21:01Speaker 2: of course, referencing a couple of famous robots. So I'm
- 21:05Speaker 2: gonna tell you what. The video looks pretty cool. I
- 21:09Speaker 2: just watched it, and the only thing I'm confused about
- 21:12Speaker 2: is at the end of the video sorry spoiler alert,
- 21:15Speaker 2: the robot sits down. I'm not exactly sure why it
- 21:19Speaker 2: sits down, because can't it just stand? I mean, I
- 21:21Speaker 2: guess if you want it to look more natural. I
- 21:24Speaker 2: know we have a tendency to, you know, put human
- 21:28Speaker 2: qualities on machines. There was a famous dog robot that
- 21:32Speaker 2: people were kicking on the internet and people felt sorry
- 21:35Speaker 2: for it. Not that it makes sense to kick your robot,
- 21:38Speaker 2: but my point is letting it sit down just so
- 21:41Speaker 2: that it seems natural for us is the only logical
- 21:45Speaker 2: reason the thing's not tired, right. I don't think there's
- 21:48Speaker 2: any anyway. They don't really touch on that in the video,
- 21:52Speaker 2: But I just noticed it sat down and I just
- 21:53Speaker 2: scratched my head for a minute. No big surprise here.
- 21:56Speaker 2: It pays to be beautiful. According to a recent survey,
- 21:59Speaker 2: attractive workers earned nearly twenty thousand dollars more annually than
- 22:03Speaker 2: their less attractive colleagues. Tell me about it. I mean,
- 22:08Speaker 2: I just deal with all this extra money. Eighty one
- 22:11Speaker 2: percent of those surveyed believe that good looks give you
- 22:13Speaker 2: an edge at work, from getting hired to being promoted
- 22:17Speaker 2: to getting a raise. Sixty seven percent of those surveyed
- 22:20Speaker 2: said they experienced someone getting unfair treatment or being talked
- 22:24Speaker 2: about negatively due to their looks. Eighty three percent said
- 22:27Speaker 2: that coworkers who put more effort into their appearance are
- 22:30Speaker 2: seen as more capable. That's probably why seventy nine percent
- 22:34Speaker 2: of respondents said they feel pressure to spend money on
- 22:36Speaker 2: their appearance, shelling out money for cosmetic treatments, beauty products,
- 22:41Speaker 2: and more. When respondents were asked to rate their own
- 22:44Speaker 2: attractiveness on a scale of one to ten. The average
- 22:47Speaker 2: score they gave themselves was seven point seven. Men more
- 22:50Speaker 2: confident about their looks, with thirty seven and a half
- 22:53Speaker 2: percent rating themselves nine or ten, compared to just twenty
- 22:57Speaker 2: seven point four percent of women. See women CEOs were
- 23:01Speaker 2: more confident about their looks seventy one percent rating themselves
- 23:05Speaker 2: nine or ten. Yeah, this isn't a big shock. I mean,
- 23:11Speaker 2: I even I'll say this. I worked with two people
- 23:14Speaker 2: who said that they got promotions solely because they wore
- 23:19Speaker 2: a suit to work every day, and I remember thinking,
- 23:21Speaker 2: I don't believe I would tell anybody that. I mean,
- 23:23Speaker 2: I think it was a little they were trying to
- 23:25Speaker 2: play a little reverse psychology and get everybody to dress
- 23:28Speaker 2: up more at work. But came across says, yeah, I
- 23:31Speaker 2: don't really know what I'm doing here, but I dressed nicely,
- 23:34Speaker 2: so they gave me this job. So that was kind
- 23:37Speaker 2: of the way it came across. But anyway, a Japanese
- 23:40Speaker 2: woman has earned her rightful place in a Guinness World
- 23:43Speaker 2: Record Book one hundred and eight years old. Glad this
- 23:49Speaker 2: one isn't it going to be on the radio so
- 23:51Speaker 2: I can say her name? Shitsui and it's spelled that way.
- 23:57Speaker 2: Hakiyoshi not the oldest woman in the world, but she
- 24:00Speaker 2: is the oldest female barber, hak Shioshi. I guess they Hakoshi.
- 24:06Speaker 2: They didn't do a first name again, Thankfully, I's been
- 24:09Speaker 2: seeing cutting hair professionally since receiving her barber's license in
- 24:14Speaker 2: nineteen thirty six. No plans to stop working at her salon.
- 24:17Speaker 2: The first salon she opened was destroyed in an air
- 24:19Speaker 2: strike during World War Two. How about that she lost
- 24:22Speaker 2: her husband in the war and was forced to raise
- 24:24Speaker 2: two kids alone. She opened a new bit. How about
- 24:27Speaker 2: that she opened a new business, continued with it right
- 24:30Speaker 2: up until today's told reporters, I am truly overwhelmed by happiness.
- 24:33Speaker 2: I'm grateful to everyone in the community. What a great story.
- 24:37Speaker 2: They're one hundred and eight years old and still cutting
- 24:39Speaker 2: hair all right. Forget phone chargers, they say, in the
- 24:43Speaker 2: near future, all you'll need to charge your devices are
- 24:45Speaker 2: your clothes. Researchers in Sweden have developed the special polymer
- 24:50Speaker 2: coating that can generate electricity from your body heat. And
- 24:53Speaker 2: while we're not quite at that point where your T
- 24:55Speaker 2: shirt can fully charge your smartphone yet, this breakthrough could
- 25:00Speaker 2: how small sensors in your clothing, like health monitors without
- 25:03Speaker 2: needing to have batteries. Maybe just those Christmas lights people
- 25:07Speaker 2: like to wear on their clothes, you know, on their
- 25:08Speaker 2: hats or whatever. It could work for that. All right,
- 25:11Speaker 2: that'll do it for this Wednesday edition of the show.
