0:00
Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start
0:05
Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to The West Carrol Morning Show.
0:09
Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, fourth day of March. I'm west Thanks for
0:14
Speaker 2: joining me. We had a bit of a protest happening
0:24
Speaker 2: here in Columbus, our hometown, the headquarters if you will,
0:30
Speaker 2: for the West Carol Morning Show is we do the
0:34
Speaker 2: show here. We referenced the Chattahoochee Valley, which encompasses a
0:38
Speaker 2: few cities in the area, in towns that sort of
0:41
Speaker 2: encompass this area, including Fort Benning. It's Fort Benning again.
0:47
Speaker 2: It was Fort Benning named after General Henry Benning, and
0:51
Speaker 2: then because of Civil War ties to a Democrat, Henry
0:57
Speaker 2: Benning and Civil War connections, so they decided that they
1:03
Speaker 2: didn't want it named after him anymore. Okay, So they
1:07
Speaker 2: decided to name it after hol Moore and his wife,
1:11
Speaker 2: and that's been the name now for a little while.
1:13
Speaker 2: They've just gotten all the signs chang. I think all
1:15
Speaker 2: the signs are changed, I don't know. And then they've
1:19
Speaker 2: decided now this new administration, and I said it here
1:23
Speaker 2: on the show, they figured out a way to change
1:26
Speaker 2: the name of Fort Bragg and name it after a
1:28
Speaker 2: different person named Brag. And I said, if they figure
1:32
Speaker 2: out the right person to name the named Benning, that
1:37
Speaker 2: they can name Fort Benning after they can get the
1:39
Speaker 2: name back, So now they will honor Fort Benning Corporal
1:44
Speaker 2: fred G. Benning. I don't know how many corporals have
1:49
Speaker 2: military installations named after them, but we do now here
1:52
Speaker 2: in our area, with Fort Benning the name again named
1:56
Speaker 2: after Corporal fred G. Benning. And of course following in
2:03
Speaker 2: the suit of changing the name of Fort Bragg the
2:05
Speaker 2: way that they did with a different person named Bragg.
2:08
Speaker 2: And I know there'll be expenses of changing everything back,
2:11
Speaker 2: but the people who served at Fort Benning can now
2:13
Speaker 2: continue to say that they served at Fort Benning. I
2:15
Speaker 2: don't know that they really thought about the person it
2:18
Speaker 2: was named after, but now they found a new person
2:21
Speaker 2: that they're able to name it after. But anyway, that's
2:27
Speaker 2: part of the area where we do the show, Columbus,
2:30
Speaker 2: Phoenix City, Fort Benning, and surrounding cities nearby. And it's
2:36
Speaker 2: important that we sometimes get into some of the local
2:40
Speaker 2: news that happens in the area here on the show.
2:42
Speaker 2: And there was a story that jumped out that I
2:44
Speaker 2: found interesting. It just relates to the way that some
2:50
Speaker 2: of the news is covered. We have certain we have
2:57
Speaker 2: certain things that get coverage. Maybe I don't necessarily warrant coverage,
3:05
Speaker 2: and that it's maybe not really a lot of interest.
3:08
Speaker 2: If a protest is scheduled and a put protest takes
3:12
Speaker 2: place and no one shows up, is it worth reporting
3:18
Speaker 2: as a news story? I guess this is my question.
3:22
Speaker 2: If you say that a protest broke out and you
3:26
Speaker 2: know less than ten people showed up, is it worth
3:29
Speaker 2: reporting that it's a protest? I mean, I would probably
3:38
Speaker 2: argue it's not. It's it's that it's probably not worth
3:41
Speaker 2: reporting as a protest. And this isn't to silence a
3:44
Speaker 2: group of people. It's just to say, if you're not
3:49
Speaker 2: getting the interest to actually attract a crowd of people,
3:54
Speaker 2: then maybe it's not really a news story, is it.
3:58
Speaker 2: I mean, is it so apparently over the weekend or
4:05
Speaker 2: maybe this was Friday when this took place, what's listed
4:09
Speaker 2: as And I'm going to an article in the Columbus
4:13
Speaker 2: Ledger Choir. I'm just gonna because they covered it, and
4:19
Speaker 2: you know, I'm not they felt it was necessary to
4:23
Speaker 2: cover this as a news story. That's their prerogative. It's
4:28
Speaker 2: their mission, and I got nothing against the Columbus Ledger inquirer.
4:32
Speaker 2: This is the way the story is worded, and the reporter,
4:37
Speaker 2: I guess, Sunday Rose. This is from Friday to twenty eighth.
4:44
Speaker 2: This is the first words. Let me read the headline first,
4:48
Speaker 2: Columbus protesters rally as restrictions on trans student athletes passes
4:53
Speaker 2: Georgia House. That's the headline of the article. Now, if
4:57
Speaker 2: you read this headline, it says Columbus protesture's rally. Okay,
5:03
Speaker 2: let me used read the beginning. I'm not going to
5:05
Speaker 2: read a lot of the article, but I just want
5:07
Speaker 2: to read the beginning of it. A few Columbus residents
5:10
Speaker 2: gathered Friday to stand against transgender erasure at the City
5:16
Speaker 2: Services Center on Macon Road, hearing speeches from community members
5:20
Speaker 2: and leaders who have opposed recent measures from President Donald
5:25
Speaker 2: Trump's administration. It mentions that it was organized by local
5:30
Speaker 2: activist group cal Gay Pride, a day after the Georgia
5:35
Speaker 2: House passed the Riley Gains Act, which is banning transgender
5:40
Speaker 2: athletes from competing against athletes assigned female at birth. Okay,
5:45
Speaker 2: a few the video of the coverage very strategically shot.
5:54
Speaker 2: It's not showing the full gathering of people. It just
5:59
Speaker 2: show you know, a few. A few is the right
6:03
Speaker 2: word a few to me, and I don't know how
6:07
Speaker 2: you define a few. I would say a few is
6:11
Speaker 2: probably more than a couple. A couple, we know what
6:14
Speaker 2: that is. That's two, right, That's what a couple is.
6:20
Speaker 2: But a few to me is a little more than that.
6:23
Speaker 2: But it's certainly not I mean, I would say if
6:26
Speaker 2: they even hit, I don't know, if you hit a
6:29
Speaker 2: half dozen, is that still a few? Or God blessed
6:34
Speaker 2: the people that wanted to get out and be heard.
6:36
Speaker 2: I mean, they went out and made their voices heard,
6:41
Speaker 2: and I'm not knocking them for doing that. They've got
6:43
Speaker 2: a right to do that. But the way that this
6:47
Speaker 2: video is shot of this coverage very intentionally doesn't show
6:52
Speaker 2: any more than you know, speakers that were there. One
6:58
Speaker 2: of them, I guess, the head of Calgate Pride, Jeremy Hobbs,
7:04
Speaker 2: who had a fantastic piece done on him by a
7:08
Speaker 2: local news TV news station WRBOL over Christmas, which was
7:13
Speaker 2: a fantastic piece of journalism, saying that he was writing
7:16
Speaker 2: Christmas cards for people. I mean, apparently that was news.
7:23
Speaker 2: I think that's less of a news story than you know,
7:27
Speaker 2: five or six people or however many. I can't It's
7:30
Speaker 2: really hard for me to tell. They've got the video
7:33
Speaker 2: on a loop, and I'm trying hard to see how
7:35
Speaker 2: many people were at this event. Here's a shot that
7:37
Speaker 2: shows one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
7:44
Speaker 2: There's nine people in this shot, maybe ten. I can't
7:47
Speaker 2: tell if this is a person off to the side,
7:50
Speaker 2: so that's more than six. That's more than a half dozen.
7:54
Speaker 2: I don't know how many total. They intentionally did not
7:57
Speaker 2: tell us how many were there. I assume in this
8:01
Speaker 2: particular article, because for whatever reason, I don't know why
8:06
Speaker 2: they wouldn't tell us how many were there. They told
8:09
Speaker 2: us a few, they just didn't tell us what the
8:13
Speaker 2: number was, so, you know, maybe it was twenty. I
8:18
Speaker 2: don't know. They're not they're not all gathered in one
8:25
Speaker 2: space in general. In certain they certainly have every right
8:32
Speaker 2: to protest this. They have every right to protest something
8:36
Speaker 2: that they don't like. It's I think the number of
8:41
Speaker 2: people who showed up probably gives you an indication of
8:45
Speaker 2: how much it's not a huge issue for most people.
8:51
Speaker 2: I don't know what time of day that this protest
8:53
Speaker 2: took place. This article was it shows it was last
8:57
Speaker 2: updated at about four in the afternoon on Friday, four
9:01
Speaker 2: p fifteen, So these were people that took time out
9:05
Speaker 2: of the day to go during the workday. Maybe that's
9:08
Speaker 2: why people weren't there. I don't know. I know that
9:11
Speaker 2: this isn't a high priority issue for a large portion
9:14
Speaker 2: of the country. Support for the Riley Gains Act and
9:20
Speaker 2: the support for the President signing an executive order to
9:27
Speaker 2: stop biological men competing in women's sports. Popularity is high
9:34
Speaker 2: for that executive order and high for the Riley Gains Act.
9:38
Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean that people shouldn't get out in protest.
9:42
Speaker 2: And it also doesn't mean that, you know, people involved
9:46
Speaker 2: in this event shouldn't send out Christmas cards. I mean,
9:50
Speaker 2: it's a nice thing to do, I think when we
9:53
Speaker 2: point out that one of our citizens sent out Christmas cards.
9:58
Speaker 2: And again I want to stress this is a journalism
10:01
Speaker 2: coming from the perspective of the Ledger Inquirer. It was
10:05
Speaker 2: WRBL TV to put this RD. I don't know if
10:09
Speaker 2: it was on TV or if this was just something
10:11
Speaker 2: that was done just as a digital story back around
10:15
Speaker 2: the holidays, but when a citizen in our town takes
10:18
Speaker 2: time to write Christmas cards. It's such a rare thing
10:24
Speaker 2: that no one else in town really does, and it's
10:27
Speaker 2: nice when someone covers it. They do an outstanding job
10:33
Speaker 2: of covering that someone sent out Christmas cards. It's a
10:37
Speaker 2: nice thing. I applaud anyone who sends out Christmas cards.
10:40
Speaker 2: It's got me inspired to send out Christmas cards this year.
10:43
Speaker 2: I hope I can be on the news. Wouldn't that
10:46
Speaker 2: be nice to be on the news. Did you catch
10:50
Speaker 2: any of the Oscars? I watched just a little bit
10:52
Speaker 2: of it. And let me explain a couple of things.
10:56
Speaker 2: Because I've talked about this before. I don't feel like
10:58
Speaker 2: I have to explain Lane myself every time, although it
11:01
Speaker 2: does seem like maybe I do. But when I was
11:05
Speaker 2: a kid, I loved watching the Oscars with my mom.
11:07
Speaker 2: That was something that we did. She liked watching it.
11:09
Speaker 2: She liked just sort of the pomp and circumstance, if
11:13
Speaker 2: you will, of the Oscars. She's someone who loved movies.
11:17
Speaker 2: She's probably a big part of why I love movies.
11:22
Speaker 2: And I remember as a kid watching and I don't
11:25
Speaker 2: I don't know if the first time I watched. It
11:27
Speaker 2: was just me going, hey, this might be a way
11:28
Speaker 2: to stay up past my bedtime. I don't know. I
11:30
Speaker 2: don't know what the original ploy was with me watching
11:33
Speaker 2: the Oscars, but I remember watching them with her, and
11:37
Speaker 2: I remember her reacting to some of the winners and
11:40
Speaker 2: losers movies that I'd never seen. I never would well,
11:43
Speaker 2: let's say never would see. I'll get back to that
11:46
Speaker 2: in a second. But movies at the time I didn't
11:48
Speaker 2: think i'd ever really watch. Was I going to watch
11:50
Speaker 2: Out of Africa? You know? Was that gonna be something
11:54
Speaker 2: that was on my list of things to watch when
11:56
Speaker 2: I was a kid. I remember that year. I remember,
12:00
Speaker 2: you know, Prince singing Purple Rain. I remember all those things,
12:04
Speaker 2: and at some point in my life, as you know,
12:08
Speaker 2: as an adult, I liked watching I liked watching the Oscars.
12:11
Speaker 2: I enjoyed it. It was it was fun for me. We
12:14
Speaker 2: all know what it's become. We all know what Hollywood
12:17
Speaker 2: really is and what it's you know, morphed into. The
12:22
Speaker 2: interest from the general public is low. The viewership for
12:26
Speaker 2: the Oscars is disappointing. Is being very generous if you
12:32
Speaker 2: were to say that a few people watched it, you know,
12:36
Speaker 2: that would be probably pretty accurate. And I don't, I don't,
12:42
Speaker 2: we don't know what we By the way back to
12:44
Speaker 2: the other story, a few was never defined. I just
12:47
Speaker 2: saw a picture that showed, you know, like eleven people. Maybe,
12:51
Speaker 2: so maybe that means less than a dozen. Maybe if
12:53
Speaker 2: you get to a dozen, just from a journalism standpoint,
12:56
Speaker 2: you stop using the word few. I don't know. And
12:59
Speaker 2: I'm not being critical of this person who wrote the article.
13:01
Speaker 2: I'm really not. I don't want to come across as that.
13:04
Speaker 2: I'm just pointing out the fact that maybe you show
13:07
Speaker 2: up to cover a protest and there's less than twenty
13:11
Speaker 2: people there. Maybe you just go, this isn't really much
13:13
Speaker 2: of a protest, you know. Maybe you just say, hey,
13:17
Speaker 2: there was a protest there. I don't know, I because
13:21
Speaker 2: it is what they did, because they can't. Maybe just
13:23
Speaker 2: tell us, however many people were there. Tell us how
13:27
Speaker 2: many were there? Maybe that should be the rule, just
13:30
Speaker 2: from a journalism standpoint, how many people were there? All right,
13:32
Speaker 2: I've gone back, I've gone backwards. So at the show
13:36
Speaker 2: the other night, Sunday night, I watched because a couple
13:40
Speaker 2: of things. One, I am always curious about which movie
13:44
Speaker 2: wins best Picture. It's less important now than it used
13:48
Speaker 2: to be because now they have all these rules in place.
13:50
Speaker 2: You can't even be a nominee if there's certain circumstances.
13:55
Speaker 2: You know, you got to have a certain number of
13:58
Speaker 2: non white people working on the movie. You have to
14:00
Speaker 2: have some different kinds of representation just to be qualified
14:05
Speaker 2: to win Best Picture. Otherwise you're not even in consideration.
14:09
Speaker 2: You can't. You're not even a nominee. And there's a
14:12
Speaker 2: lot of movies that were nominated this year that people
14:14
Speaker 2: were going, I've never even heard of this, What is
14:16
Speaker 2: this movie? I don't know what this is. And I
14:19
Speaker 2: think it's because we have some movies that no one
14:22
Speaker 2: has seen. Some of these movies no one will ever see.
14:27
Speaker 2: And some movies didn't get consideration because they didn't have
14:30
Speaker 2: the requirements, they didn't have some of the technical rules
14:35
Speaker 2: in place that would qualify them to be a nominee
14:38
Speaker 2: or a winner. But I'll say this, they've had I
14:43
Speaker 2: guess ninety seven of these, and I have seen almost
14:46
Speaker 2: every Best Picture winner. There's just a small handful that
14:50
Speaker 2: I haven't watched. I'm down to I think about nine,
14:52
Speaker 2: eight or nine maybe that I haven't seen. I haven't
14:55
Speaker 2: seen this new one, so I guess we add that
14:57
Speaker 2: to the list. It's a movie about a prostitute, and
15:01
Speaker 2: I don't know that it's like, it's not like a
15:03
Speaker 2: pretty woman thing. It's I think it's a little grittier
15:06
Speaker 2: than that. But I don't know. I don't know anything
15:09
Speaker 2: really about this movie other than they were it was
15:12
Speaker 2: sort of the favorite to win once the movie about
15:16
Speaker 2: the transgender woman fell in the outs. This Amelia Perez
15:21
Speaker 2: was the favorite for a long time, and then they
15:25
Speaker 2: found some tweets that the star of the movie who
15:29
Speaker 2: was nominated as Best Actress and ultimately had been no
15:35
Speaker 2: chance to win because they found some of these tweets
15:39
Speaker 2: in the past that were considered racist or anti Islam
15:43
Speaker 2: or whatever they were. I don't I don't know. I
15:45
Speaker 2: didn't read that. I didn't care enough to dig into
15:47
Speaker 2: the story. I'll just point out to the fact that
15:51
Speaker 2: we this was supposed to be the year for the
15:53
Speaker 2: trans movie. This was supposed to be the year for
15:57
Speaker 2: the transactress, and it turns out they rather than go
16:03
Speaker 2: with the scheduled plan, they decided, no, well, we're not
16:08
Speaker 2: going to vote for this person. This person has said
16:11
Speaker 2: some nasty things in the past. So it's really not
16:14
Speaker 2: about what's considered the best movie. It's not about who's
16:18
Speaker 2: the best actor or actress or whatever the scenario is.
16:21
Speaker 2: It's about awarding someone who plays by their rules. You
16:25
Speaker 2: have to play by their rules, you have to be
16:27
Speaker 2: lined in toe with. And again, I'm not defending anything
16:32
Speaker 2: that this person tweeted years ago. I don't know if
16:35
Speaker 2: this person was a man or a woman when she
16:38
Speaker 2: tweeted she wants to be called she. Now, I don't
16:40
Speaker 2: have a problem with that.
16:41
Speaker 1: You be a she.
16:42
Speaker 2: I've told you, you be you. I don't know if
16:45
Speaker 2: if she was a he or she when she posted
16:47
Speaker 2: these things about George Floyd and other things. I don't know.
16:51
Speaker 2: I don't know anything about this person, and I would
16:53
Speaker 2: not have known anything about this person if not for
16:56
Speaker 2: the Oscar. We have a gender woman who's nominated in
17:02
Speaker 2: the best actress category. And as I said back when
17:08
Speaker 2: all this started and this conversation started, are you are
17:11
Speaker 2: you awarding the best movie and the best performer or
17:15
Speaker 2: are you, you know, awarding the people who play by
17:18
Speaker 2: the rules. Are you awarding the movie? There was a
17:21
Speaker 2: movie years ago that was basically it was called Moonlight
17:26
Speaker 2: and it was basically sort of a pro gay message
17:31
Speaker 2: to the black community, something that, by the way, and
17:35
Speaker 2: if I don't typically necessarily do this, but Blaze Media's
17:41
Speaker 2: Jason whitlock Back a couple of weeks ago had an
17:45
Speaker 2: article about this is just a theory that he's working
17:49
Speaker 2: with and some people are working with. I think he's
17:51
Speaker 2: quoting someone else's theory, but about whether or not the
17:56
Speaker 2: Obama presidency, whether or not Obama was a play for
18:01
Speaker 2: the LGBTQ plus crowd, and whether or not he was
18:08
Speaker 2: mainly just there for the purposes of trying to introduce
18:12
Speaker 2: the gay community to Black America. Because, as you remember,
18:16
Speaker 2: and I've pointed this out many times, when Obama won
18:19
Speaker 2: the presidency in two thousand and eight, California had gay
18:24
Speaker 2: marriage on the ballot, and there were a lot of
18:26
Speaker 2: first time black voters who were not ready to vote
18:30
Speaker 2: for gay marriage, and it got shot down during that
18:34
Speaker 2: election because these were people who had never voted before,
18:36
Speaker 2: wanted to vote for the first ever black president and
18:39
Speaker 2: said no thanks to gay marriage Prop eight or whatever
18:42
Speaker 2: it was. So of course it eventually got through because
18:46
Speaker 2: those people didn't vote again the first time. Many of
18:49
Speaker 2: the first time voters that wanted to vote for Obama
18:52
Speaker 2: and just never came back to vote again. I certainly
18:55
Speaker 2: didn't vote the next time gay marriage was on the ballot.
18:59
Speaker 2: But anyway, that it's an interesting article and it's worth
19:01
Speaker 2: checking out. I just mentioned that for you. But I
19:06
Speaker 2: whatever this movie is, it's one best picture. I'll put
19:09
Speaker 2: it on my list. I've told you there was one
19:11
Speaker 2: movie call Me by my Name I guess was the
19:14
Speaker 2: name of it, that was nominated one year, and it
19:16
Speaker 2: was about an adult man and an underage boy that
19:19
Speaker 2: had a relationship together. And I was like, well, if
19:22
Speaker 2: that one wins, I won't watch it. That'll ruin my
19:24
Speaker 2: chance of ever being fully at one hundred percent for
19:27
Speaker 2: all these movies. But whatever, this is about the prostitute.
19:31
Speaker 2: They've pushed aside, this trends movie for the purposes of,
19:38
Speaker 2: you know, a prostitute, And I was like, that may
19:40
Speaker 2: be the most Hollywood thing ever. I mean, it just
19:43
Speaker 2: feels like it's like we got to figure out which
19:45
Speaker 2: one of these things is going to be the cause.
19:48
Speaker 2: They had this movie Moonlight because they wanted to introduce,
19:52
Speaker 2: you know, this gay story about these two gay boys,
19:56
Speaker 2: black boys to gay to the black community. That's what
20:02
Speaker 2: they wanted to do. They wanted to have this story.
20:05
Speaker 2: It was its Oscar winner for Best Picture and get people,
20:09
Speaker 2: and then they had TV shows like Empire. So anyway,
20:15
Speaker 2: I watched it because I just was curious what the
20:17
Speaker 2: winner was. And I also I really like Kieran Culkin
20:21
Speaker 2: Mcaulay Culkin's little brother who on the show Succession. And
20:26
Speaker 2: the movie A Real Pain, which I really really liked.
20:30
Speaker 2: The movie was really good and Colkin was fantastic and
20:34
Speaker 2: it Jesse Eisenberg wrote it and directed it, I guess,
20:38
Speaker 2: and Coulkin was great in it, and he won Best
20:41
Speaker 2: Supporting Actor. And of course, you know, the first time
20:44
Speaker 2: we all remember Culkin was he was, you know, the
20:48
Speaker 2: little cousin in home alone, drinking the pepsi and ready
20:51
Speaker 2: to wet the bed. So I liked seeing and he
20:54
Speaker 2: had a great acceptance speech. Didn't get political, didn't get
20:58
Speaker 2: into anything. He just talked about it wife and sort
21:01
Speaker 2: of his career and things like that and his family,
21:04
Speaker 2: which I thought was great. But anyway, yeah, overall, nothing spectacular,
21:09
Speaker 2: nothing to see here. It's pretty much now status quo.
21:13
Speaker 2: It's not the snaffo. It's sort of a situation normal
21:18
Speaker 2: still boring. I mean, it really is. The oscars are
21:22
Speaker 2: so boring and it's not anything that's like, Man, we
21:26
Speaker 2: have to tune into this, we have to watch it.
21:29
Speaker 2: There's some people who will, there's some people who are
21:32
Speaker 2: going to be glued to the whole show. I just
21:35
Speaker 2: wanted to see who the Best Picture winner was and
21:37
Speaker 2: then go to bed. That's it. And I wanted to
21:39
Speaker 2: see Colkin's acceptance speech, which I didn't see live. I
21:42
Speaker 2: had to watch that because I just I can't make
21:44
Speaker 2: myself sit through it. I just can't do it. Today's

25:06
Speaker 2: hundred seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred
25:10
Speaker 2: O dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show right
25:14
Speaker 2: after the break. Okay, so I never actually said the
25:26
Speaker 2: name of the movie that won Best Picture at the Oscars. Uh,
25:31
Speaker 2: and it is Anora. So maybe you're one of the
25:35
Speaker 2: few people who watched Anora. I don't know. We still
25:38
Speaker 2: don't know how many A few is. We still don't
25:41
Speaker 2: know exactly how many A few is, all right. We
25:47
Speaker 2: know it's not a lot. It would say a lot
25:49
Speaker 2: if it was a lot. But a few people watched Anora.
25:54
Speaker 2: We just don't know exactly how many. And maybe a
25:56
Speaker 2: few of those people sent Christmas cards out this year,
25:59
Speaker 2: I don't know, or last year. All right. We know
26:02
Speaker 2: about side effects from things like ozimpic. And when I
26:05
Speaker 2: say side effects ozempic face ozempic neck some of the
26:09
Speaker 2: weight loss things that surgeons have had to go in
26:12
Speaker 2: and deal with because weight loss drugs like ozempic have
26:18
Speaker 2: caused enough weight loss that you have to deal with
26:21
Speaker 2: extra skin or extra wrinkles and things. Well, here's another
26:25
Speaker 2: side effect as it pertains to drugs like ozempic, and
26:33
Speaker 2: it's called yoga boobs. That's what it's the trend, it's
26:36
Speaker 2: called Plastic surgeons say the trend right now is not
26:39
Speaker 2: for large breast but smaller ones that they're calling yoga boobs.
26:44
Speaker 2: A more athletic, smaller, more proportion look is what's in
26:49
Speaker 2: right now. According to New York plastic surgeon, doctor Laura
26:54
Speaker 2: Devgan says that the yoga boobs are enough to fill
26:57
Speaker 2: out a sports bra while maintaining a leap sculpted silhouette
27:02
Speaker 2: and that she says, yes, weight lost drugs are driving
27:06
Speaker 2: the trend. Devegen says the uptick has coincided with the
27:10
Speaker 2: growing rise in weight loss medications. There has been an
27:13
Speaker 2: overall societal trend towards slimness and balance, and proportionate breasts
27:18
Speaker 2: are a part of that. According to doctor Devgan, So
27:22
Speaker 2: that's another side effect coming from ozempic. Every American eats
27:28
Speaker 2: an average of twenty pounds of pasta a year. I'm
27:32
Speaker 2: probably pushing that number up sadly, and there's usually some
27:37
Speaker 2: type of sauce on it. Instacart is interested in knowing
27:40
Speaker 2: which type of sauce Americans prefer, so they gathered up
27:43
Speaker 2: data from all of their grocery orders and found that
27:46
Speaker 2: marin Era was ordered more than any other sauce nationwide,
27:49
Speaker 2: accounting for twenty percent of all pasta sauce orders. Behind
27:53
Speaker 2: it at number two Alfredo sauce, which happens to be
27:56
Speaker 2: the most popular pasta sauce in Southern States. So marin Aera, Alfredo, tomato.
28:04
Speaker 2: This is that word basil. Basil is the way they
28:08
Speaker 2: say it overseas, and I say, I'm interchangeably. Tomato, garlic,
28:12
Speaker 2: tomato sauce, pesto tomato and cheese, meat sauce, vodka sauce,
28:18
Speaker 2: and mushroom sauce rounds out the top ten. Maybe a blush,
28:23
Speaker 2: maybe you mix the marin Era and the Alfredo. Maybe
28:26
Speaker 2: you have like a ball and a sauce where you
28:28
Speaker 2: put some meat in there. Any of those is good.
28:32
Speaker 2: Most of those would be good. I guess there does
28:34
Speaker 2: say meat sauce. I suppose that counts all right. As
28:37
Speaker 2: folks are getting ready to partake in spring break activities,
28:42
Speaker 2: Triple A has issued a list of the top ten
28:45
Speaker 2: spring break destinations for twenty twenty five. Florida hotspot as always, Orlando,
28:50
Speaker 2: Fort Lauderdale, Miami all in the list, Atlanta in the list,
28:58
Speaker 2: High in the list particular order, New York City, Honolulu, LA.
29:04
Speaker 2: I don't know the people in the Hollywood. Are they
29:07
Speaker 2: ready for spring breakers to come in? Is that ready
29:10
Speaker 2: to go? Did I mentioned Tampa when I said Florida?
29:14
Speaker 2: That's in there too. Chicago and Charlotte are among the
29:17
Speaker 2: top destinations. Another study is showing mental health toll that
29:23
Speaker 2: about the mental health toll that too much time on
29:25
Speaker 2: a screen can have on kids. New research finding that
29:27
Speaker 2: every extra hour spent on screens and social media is
29:30
Speaker 2: linked to the risk of eating disorders and adolescents. Researchers
29:34
Speaker 2: found that tweens and teens who spend a lot of
29:36
Speaker 2: time online are more likely to have distorted body images,
29:40
Speaker 2: leading them to worry about weight gain, tying their self
29:44
Speaker 2: worth to their weight and engage in unhealthy behaviors like
29:47
Speaker 2: binge eating and over exercising, So keep it in mind,
29:53
Speaker 2: all right, then I'll do it for this Tuesday edition
29:56
