  Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, twenty fifth day of February. I'm Wes, thanks
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: for joining me. If you know my mother, then great
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: for you. Bless you for knowing her. You're blessed for
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: knowing her. When my friends run up and give my
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: mom a hug and call her Lulu makes me happy
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: on the inside. If you're blessed to know her. Today
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: is her birthday. So if you get an opportunity to
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: wish Lulu a happy birthday, please do. She would love
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: to hear from you. It would make me happy too,
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: if you were so inclined to do that. We're here
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: on Tuesday, final couple of days of February, and lots happen.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: There's a lot that's gone on, really in the last
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: couple of days. I didn't talk yesterday about the Sometimes
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: just FYI Sometimes over the course of like the weekend,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: I just have things in my head that are just
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: kind of rattling around in there, you know, just just
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: like I don't know, like a lonely guy wandering through
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: an empty house, maybe just sort of talking to himself,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Like that's what my thoughts are it's not me. I'm
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: not a lonely guy in an empty house, but in
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: my head, it's kind of an empty house, which is
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: a guy muttering to himself in there. And sometimes as
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: those thoughts are banging around inside that house out of
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: this sky, they end up sort of forming shows. That's
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: kind of what they do. Like this show is ultimately
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: my way of getting some of those things out of
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: my head, out of that empty house inside. And I
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: had just kind of made up my mind after watching
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: the Dark Night Rises movie, and I heard from a
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: few of you saying that you're going to rewatch it
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: good see if you get the same thing from it
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: that I did. Uh, But just uh just note like
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: sometimes if I kind of come out of nowhere with
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: a show idea that's maybe not quite as topical, sometimes
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: that's where they are, and that that often will happen
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: to me on a Monday when I've just had a
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: weekend of things just kind of rattling around in there.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: So anyway, uh so, uh, we didn't really talk about
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Cash Patel, and then a couple of things have happened,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: like he's he's been confirmed obviously as the FBI director,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: and now Dan Bongino, who uh you know, has a
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: has a law enforcement passed and uh what was part
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: of secret service and those sorts of things. He is
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: now been tapped by the president to be the deputy
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: FBI director, and people lost their minds, Like you thought,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: they lost their minds about Patel, and they probably should.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, they really should be very aware of him.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: I just imagine the number of people with cash Bettel
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: just nervous, just going oh my gosh, oh no. But
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: this Bongino thing adds another layer to it, and to me,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: it's another example of Trump playing chess and not checkers.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: And there's a lot of people that look at moves
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: that he's made and decisions that he's made. There was
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: a criticism, obviously, there's a lot of criticism by a
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: lot of people about the initial pick of Matt Gates
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: for the Attorney General's office, and ultimately he dropped out,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: he moved on. I think Matt Gates my impression, And
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: again I don't have any insider info on this. I
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: have talked to a few people, but I don't have
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: anything to confirm any of my suspicions on it. I
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: do feel like those investigations on him, were coming like
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: it was about time to pay the piper. I think
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: that Trump, in my gut, I think that Trump wanted
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: to go with Bondy to begin with. And I feel
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: like the Matt Gates thing was giving Gates an out
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: because Gates had been a very vocal Trump supporter for
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: a very long time, and I feel like it was
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: giving him an out so that he could resign from Congress,
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: which should have ultimately shut down the release of any
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: of the investigation against him, because the investigation was going
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: on inside Congress. They were investigating one of their own.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: You typically the person resigns, you put it to bed,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: you move on. I'm not necessarily saying that if Gates
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: is guilty of the things he was investigated for, I'm
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: not saying that that was a bad thing that that
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: information came out. But it's just not typically how it's done.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: And we've seen these examples from the left here all
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: the way from trying to prosecute Trump, trying to make
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: him a felon, all those sorts of things. They don't
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: play by the rules anymore. They just sort of do
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: whatever they want to do for the sake of their
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: desperate ploy to hang on to control. And that's really
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: what all of this is all about. Right now. We're
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: seeing these desperate ployees to try to keep some kind
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: of control. They're concerned about must, they're concerned about money,
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: they're concerned about power, all those things. But it would
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: not surprise me in my gut, and I may be
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: dead wrong. I don't really have, Like I said, I
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: don't have any sort of confirmation for it. My gut
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: tells me that Trump probably wanted Bondy, which is who
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: he got, but he gave Gates a way out, and
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: then Gates ended up stepping down from Congress, he stepped
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: down from a consideration for the AG role, and Bondi
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: was right there, ready to go. I think Bondi is
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: a great pick. I've interviewed, I've interviewed Pam Bondi, I've
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: talked with her on the phone. I think she's a
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: great pick for the job for all that I know
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: of her, and so far, so good. She's in there,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: and she's already hard at work, already in there, hard
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: at work with with all sorts of uh. I don't know,
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: lists of names and things you know she's got. She's
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: got lists of names, you know, Epstein lists and things. Anyway,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: another conversation for another time. I think that's a way
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: that Trump was playing chess and not checkers. I think
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: another way that he was playing chess and not checkers.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Is bringing any elon Musk and others to uh to
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: do this doge thing. I think the idea they're pretty simple.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: We know people have their hatred and their Trump derangement syndrome.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: You haven't heard me use that term often, but it's real.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: But the people who hate him certainly haven't been focused
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: as much on him as they've been focused on Musk,
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: who is, as they like to point out, not an
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: elected in an elected position. He was appointed by the
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: president as he can be. Trump is allowed to appoint
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: people into positions, especially people that are coming in going
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: I don't want to pay for this. I'm just doing
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: this on my own. I'm an American citizen. I'm concerned
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: for the future of the country. Musk has said that
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: repeatedly he was worried, specifically about the possibility of the
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: country collapsing under a second Biden or under a Harris administration.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: That's what he was concerned about. That's why he signed up,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: and when he saw and he said this in a
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: recent interview I think with Sean Hannity and Trump were
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: sitting down with Hannity, and he said it was the
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: assassination attempt, the shot to the ear that made him realize,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: I got to get in this. I need to throw
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: my support behind the President Trump for reelection because he
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: realized there's a lot at play here. So I think
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Trump playing chess instead of checkers by having someone like
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: Elon Musk there to He's taken most of the blows
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: and doesn't care. They can't do anything to him except
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: attack him and call him names and accuse him of
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: being a Nazi, something that they used to love to
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: do to Trump, but now they like trying to say
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: that about Elon and all the things that they used
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: to love about Elon Musk now they hate. They make
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: fun of his cars, They make fun of his trucks,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: they make fun of space, They make fun of everything
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: that he does, even though at one time he was
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: a darling. Right he produced these electric vehicles when people
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: just couldn't figure out how to do it. They were struggling,
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: They couldn't figure out how do we do these electric cars?
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Musk figured out how to do it.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: Musk came up with these trucks that people at first
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: were like, what is this. It's interesting, isn't it. The
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: left at first was supportive that they're unique and they're
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: different and whatever, and people on the right were like, Eh,
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: they're ugly, they're not real trucks. Something happened, right, there's
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: been a switch, there's been a change of the tide. Suddenly.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: Now it's the more conservative people that are like, oh,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: gonna go one of those cyber trucks, those weird looking,
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: pixelated cyber trucks, and folks on the left are like, yeah,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: they're garbage. They can't even drive in the snow. Brilliant move.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: You get Elon Musk in there, the guy who finally
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: got the electric car right, the guy who has prevented
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: a significant amount of waste. When it comes to launching
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: rockets into space reusing the boosters, nobody was doing that.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: Nobody even thought that was a possibility. First it was
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: let's land them on a pad, let's bring them back
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: down and let them just land vertically on a pad.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Then it was let's do it on a floating pad
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: out in the ocean, land them vertically right on there.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: They're not being dumped in the ocean. They're not just
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: rusting away in the ocean. They can be used again
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: and again and again. What a great champion of sustainability
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: electric cars. Reason boot. And then of course they're really
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: big boosters that they couldn't quite land down because I
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: had to do with the propulsion on dropping them back
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: down and putting on a on a pad. But you
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: bring them down close enough that they can catch them
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: in the sky with like chopsticks, like mister Miyagi. Actually,
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: mister Miyagi, did he ever get the fly? I know
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Daniel got the fly? Sorry, it just did the just
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: did Cobra Kai finale. This is all fresh for me.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: But anyway, so actually I did watch Karate Kid with
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: Luke not long ago. He hadn't seen that yet, so
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: he and I watched that. But anyway, and another great example,
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: even bigger booster that they caught in the air with
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: his chopstick things. So it's a great move. And then
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: he puts in Cash Patel as the director of the
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: FBI and gets him approved, and people go, oh my gosh,
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: what is he doing, Cash Patel? He's crazy? And then
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: he puts Dan Bongino in as the deputy FBI director
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: and now everybody's focused on Dan Bongino. Now it's turned
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: into another one of those oh, this is a Fox
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: News guy, this is a podcaster. And speaking of that,
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: I saw where apparently there was a Dan Bongino and
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Stephen kingfeud that was taking place on X back when
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: it was still called Twitter, something about you know, he
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: was making fun of a Bongino on Fox and making
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: fun of him from being a podcast host. Bongino made
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: fun of Stephen King for not being relevant for a
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: very long time. And then at some point, I guess
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: Stephen King has deleted all of that. People were going
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: back trying to find those old the bickering and the
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: fighting that they were doing back in the day, and
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: it was gone. It had been deleted, and a lot
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: of people were saying, well, too bad, we can't go
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: back and revisit when Stephen King owned him. And I
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: think I think maybe he deleted it because I think
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: Stephen King maybe has now figured out that podcasts are
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: bigger than you know, his old books. I mean, it's
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: podcasts are much bigger than I think a lot I
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: think you're kind of clueless if you still think that
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: podcasts aren't relevant anymore, they just really had a big
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: impact on this election. So there's that. I really think
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: this is a great example of chess and not checkers.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: And I think at one point even Stephen King got
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: off of X because he said that he it was
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: too toxic. It is. I don't you know, I have
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: an account on X. I very rarely go on there.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: People message me sometimes on there, and it takes me
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: forever to get back because it really is it's very
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: toxic and just being honest. The other social media platforms,
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: I really like Instagram because you know, it's easy, well
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: it was for a while, it was easier to sort
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: of avoid some of the stuff that I just I
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: just grow weary of it. People that want to tell me,
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: they want to tell me about Zelensky and how he's
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: not a dictator and Trump's wrong, or they want to
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: tell me how Trump and what he's doing with the
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: National parks is wrong, and they're just You're just saying
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: what your thoughts are. That's all you're doing. There's no
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: expert opinion being shared. You're just giving your thoughts on it,
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: and it's easier to kind of avoid if you avoid
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: X you can avoid that. If you avoid some of
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: the stuff on Facebook, you can avoid it. Instagram for
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: a while it was easier, but there's still people that
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: are kind of sharing some of the stuff in there,
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: and I just it's easy to just kind of unfollow,
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: you know, that's sure. You could delete these people. A
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: lot of other people I care about. I just don't
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: need to hear their opinions on it. And I think
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: that they don't understand that there's a lot of people
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: who don't want to hear their opinions on it. There's
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: a song lyric. There's a song lyric. It's a song.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: There's a band, Canadian band. I'm a big fan of
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: this band. They're called Our Lady Peace. You may not
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: have heard of them, they're not They're very popular in Canada.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: They were popular in the like mid to late nineties,
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: early two thousands, alternative rock band and the band that
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: I've been to see in concert more than any other band, right.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: I think it's the only band that I've seen more
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: than ten times in concert, or ten or more times.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: I think they're the only one. I think I've told
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: you and I've said on this show many times I've
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: never been drunk. I've never done any recreational drugs, So
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: it's me going to concerts a lot for work. I
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: went to so many shows for work, very blessed to
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: have had that opportunity to see a lot of acts live,
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: a lot of bands that I would not have chosen
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: to go. Sometimes but you just think, you know, I've
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: been invited. It's Madonna. You go, you see the show,
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: you go with some friends who are excited about it,
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: and you just go, I'll be there. I don't have
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: to pay, and I'll go. And sometimes you go backstage
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: and you meet artists and all those sorts of things.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: I was very blessed to have that life, and I
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: went to so many shows, in some cases not necessarily
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: ones I wanted to go see. And I've really forgotten
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: many of the shows, and I have stressed that never
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: been drunk, never done a recreational drug. I just went to.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: There's so many of them, and I was really kind
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: of more focused on people I was hanging out with,
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: or in some of my friends that worked at the
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: record labels and those sorts of things. It wasn't for
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: me about the band. Sometimes I went to see an
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: opening act for Metallica once and left. We were leaving
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: when Metallica was about to go on stage, and I
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: remember telling my friend maybe we should maybe we should
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: stick around for like an a song, maybe two. It's
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Metallica for crying out loud. I'm not necessarily a Metallica fan,
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: but I was like, this is one of those things.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: This is an artist that you should stay and see
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: at least be able to hear them anyway. So this band,
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: ear Lady Piece that I'm a big fan of, They've
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: got a song lyric and I'm sorry it's it's crass.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: I understand it is, but I'm just the song lyric
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: is sorry, I'm apologizing ahead of time. Brace yourself. I'm
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: not gonna I'm not gonna swear. But talking is just
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: masturbating without the mess. That's the lyric in the song.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: The song is called Happiness in the Fish, and I'm
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: reminded of that song when I see people on social
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: media just prattling off things that they really don't know
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: what they're talking about. They feel like somehow they should
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: say these things, and then it's somehow going to make
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: other people think differently, or feel differently, or change their
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: opinions on whatever it is, or make them just And
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: this is where it gets to that song lyric. And
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, it's not typically something I would even talk about,
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: but it's that self gratification of boy, I posted this,
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: this thing that I'm gonna tell everybody what they should
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: think or how I think, and wait on, like, you know,
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: eight people to like it and then get some kind
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: of self gratification from that. And I don't know that
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: song lyric pops in anytime. Just know, if you if
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: you're one of those keyboard warriors on social media and
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: you're firing off, here's why I trump this, or here's
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: why I biden this. I hear that song there, I
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: hear it when you post it. It's just there, and
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: it's just kind of there, you know, and it's what
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: I That's what I that's what I see. Yeah, I'd
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: like to see your dog. I'd like to see your cat.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: I'd like to see your kids. Like to see your travel,
• 18:25

  Speaker 2: are all great. I love those. You know, some adventure

  Speaker 2: that you went on. I like to see those. I
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: you know, if you're not a legal expert, I don't
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: need your legal thoughts on the election in Ukraine. I
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: don't need your thought on the national parks and the
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: firings that DOGE are doing that. That doesn't do anything
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: for any You're not changing anything, You're just it's just
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: self gratification, that's all it is. And I guess that
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: kind of ties into the team and King thing and
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: ultimately maybe sometimes we go back and go, what was
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: I doing? And I used to be that guy. I
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: used to be one of those people, and I realized
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: how incredibly stupid and self serving it was and I stopped.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: So that's all. That's all I'm trying to share with
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: you this morning, is you know, maybe just think about
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: that song lyric before you start firing off some sort
• 19:20

  Speaker 2: O dccolumbus dot com More West Carol Morning Show. Right
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: after the break, all right, let's talk about let's talk
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: about phobias. Let's talk about one kind of strange phobia.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: I've never even heard of this. I didn't know that
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: this was a thing. I suppose there is a phobia
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: for just about everything. This may confirm that for you,
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: But are you familiar with this one. It's a phobia
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: called mort you sec use phobia. I think I'm getting
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: that right, mort you sec usephobia. It's the fear of
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: the condiment known as ketchup. There are people who have
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: intense phobia fear of ketchup, and it causes them to
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: break out in a sweat and have panic attacks at
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: the site of ketchup. There's a woman from Bristol, England,
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: suffers from it and compares the fear being near the
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: condiment to being held at gunpoint. She says, I can't
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: even look at a bottle of ketchup or have anywhere
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: near me. Now, if she's in England, she probably says
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: tomato sauce. That's my hunch, but anyway, I'm fully aware
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: of how dramatic it sounds, and I've always been embarrassed
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: by it. If someone were to hold me at gunpoint,
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: I would freeze in panic, and that's exactly how I'd
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: feel if someone shoved ketchup. I assume she means tomato
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: sauce in my face. So yeah, apparently there's a there's
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: a phobia for everything. A study from the University of
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: South Australia, a place where they also call it tomato sauce,
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: found that women who use dating apps are more likely
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: to have cosmetic surgery procedures not a big surprise, though.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: The swipe culture of most apps, which focuses heavily on appearance,
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: is driving the trend. According to the study, one in
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: five women using dating apps have had at least one
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: cosmetic procedure, with the most popular being dermal filler and
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: anti wrinkle injections like botox. Researcher suggests that day apps
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: could help reverse this trend by using personality based matching
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: to reduce the pressure to look perfect. Good luck with
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: all that. Okay, just good luck with all that. I
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: don't know that that would ever work, but there you go.
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: There's all this talk about men being more visual, and
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: if men continue to be more visual, I don't know
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: that personality based matching is gonna really catch on with
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: some of these apps, but good luck. I'm not saying
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: it's necessarily a bad thing if it went in that direction.
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying, good luck with all that. Netflix is
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: just open Netflix bites at the MGM Grand Hotel and
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: Casino in Las Vegas. The menu boasts more than seventy dishes,
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: all inspired by Netflix shows and movies, like or TV
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: shows as this is Netflix shows and movies I guess
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Netflix shows like Stranger Things, Squid Game, Bridgerton Wednesday and
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: more So. All right, MGM Grand Hotel, why not? I
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: mean they have Aggo waffles. I assume at the I
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: guess I could look at the menu, but I assume
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: that's the Stranger Things food and all that fun stuff. Hey,
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: forget about the return of skinny jeans. The latest denim
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: trend is back to the seventies with the return of
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: flare jeans or bell bottoms that he much talked about.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: Ones that Kendrick Lamar had on at the Super Bowl
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: halftime show are Selene lightwash bell bottoms and they'll set
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: you back about thirteen hundred dollars, but you don't have
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: to pay that much to get the look. Flares available
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: pretty much anywhere the Gap Wrangler, H and M, maybe
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: some you know, vintage stores. Probably not that hard to
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: track down a pair of bell bottoms.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: Is it?
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: Cand it possibly be that difficult? And finally, silence's golden
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: relationships say. Study from the University of Reading found that
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: couples are able to sit in silence not because they're
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: mad at one another, but because they're comfortable just being
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: together and not saying a word. That's a sign of
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: a healthy relationship. I think of you both quietly sitting
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: on the couch, reading or listening to music. According to researchers,
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: that's actually a sign of an emotional connection. So that's
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: good you're able to do that. I know it looks
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: sad when you see people at a restaurant and they're
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: staring at their phones, but maybe they're just comfortable in
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: their own skin and being around each other. But I
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: would also argue, maybe it's not a bad I did
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: a restaurant to look at each other and talk just
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: a little bit. Right. That'll do it for this Tuesday
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: edition of the show. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons.
