0:05
Speaker 1: your day and you're listening to the West Carol Morning Show.
0:09
Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, fifteenth day of October. I'm Wes, thanks for
0:14
Speaker 2: joining me. Yesterday, the fourteenth of October, was the birthday
0:23
Speaker 2: of Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated back in September. Yesterday,
0:29
Speaker 2: the president and many others gathered to celebrate the life
0:36
Speaker 2: of Charlie Kirk on his birthday and he was presented
0:40
Speaker 2: with the Presidential Medal of Freedom. And Charlie Kirk's wife, Erica,
0:44
Speaker 2: gave a fantastic speech just talking about her husband's life,
0:49
Speaker 2: his legacy, the birthday present that would top all birthday presents.
0:55
Speaker 2: She could never beat that with her husband getting the
0:58
Speaker 2: Presidential Medal of Freedom, something that she knew he would
1:01
Speaker 2: have cherished and appreciated, and probably not something that he
1:06
Speaker 2: ever imagined would have been awarded to him. It was
1:10
Speaker 2: a nice moment, and it was a nice gathering of
1:13
Speaker 2: people yesterday to celebrate his life. Didn't stop people on
1:17
Speaker 2: social media from running their mouths. I think we've learned
1:21
Speaker 2: that the worst of the worst are out there, and
1:24
Speaker 2: the people who celebrated and high fived and laughed and
1:28
Speaker 2: all the horrible things when he was shot and killed.
1:33
Speaker 2: You know, many of them back for more, back for seconds.
1:36
Speaker 2: And you know, I don't really like to spend a
1:39
Speaker 2: lot of time talking about them, other than just to
1:41
Speaker 2: point out that they're still there. They didn't go away,
1:44
Speaker 2: they didn't learn. Maybe some of them did, maybe some
1:47
Speaker 2: of maybe a couple of them had someone who actually
1:49
Speaker 2: cares about them reach out and say, do you know
1:51
Speaker 2: you look like an absolute jerk. You look like a again,
1:55
Speaker 2: if second go around, you look like a complete jerk
1:58
Speaker 2: celebrating the death of a human being over you know,
2:02
Speaker 2: just political views. And it all played out once again.
2:08
Speaker 2: But it was a nice day yesterday for the friends
2:11
Speaker 2: and family and people who were close to Charlie Kirk
2:15
Speaker 2: and people who had been praying for his family and
2:18
Speaker 2: continue to pray for his family. Overall, a nice day.
2:22
Speaker 2: And this, as Erica Kirk pointed out, the president had
2:26
Speaker 2: been in the Middle East bringing peace to the Middle East.
2:30
Speaker 2: I know we got some complications. It's not nobody said
2:33
Speaker 2: it's going to be smooth and easy. I told you
2:35
Speaker 2: yesterday this was one of those things, going back to
2:38
Speaker 2: when I was in high school. It was like, man,
2:40
Speaker 2: could there ever really be peace in the Middle East?
2:44
Speaker 2: And it was it seemed like, you know, the Red
2:47
Speaker 2: Sox or the Cubs winning the World Series kind of
2:49
Speaker 2: like it just seemed like there's just no way. You know,
2:52
Speaker 2: if you believe in curses, you think there's no way
2:54
Speaker 2: this is ever going to happen. So we knew this
2:57
Speaker 2: wasn't just going to be an easy piece of cake,
3:00
Speaker 2: you know. Thing there were going to be hiccups. They
3:02
Speaker 2: were going to be well what about the dead, hostages
3:05
Speaker 2: and all those things. We knew there were going to
3:07
Speaker 2: be complications and hopefully, you know, this is going to hold.
3:14
Speaker 2: But for the moment, you know, the president did that.
3:17
Speaker 2: He for a moment in time, and then he went
3:19
Speaker 2: and he met with other leaders in the area, and
3:22
Speaker 2: then he came home as as sorry, added a bunch
3:26
Speaker 2: to Erica Kirk. All she pointed out was it was
3:28
Speaker 2: an honor that he returned home from the great work
3:33
Speaker 2: he was doing in the Middle East to be part
3:35
Speaker 2: of this ceremony to honor her husband. So a really
3:40
Speaker 2: nice moment yesterday, and a lot of people were gathered,
3:46
Speaker 2: a lot of people, you know, there for her for
3:49
Speaker 2: turning point USA and As Erica Kirk pointed out in
3:54
Speaker 2: her speech, you know the people that are now, you know,
3:57
Speaker 2: running the chapters of Turning Point all around the country
4:00
Speaker 2: in the schools. The new ones especially like they're the
4:02
Speaker 2: ones that we'll have an opportunity to pick up the
4:05
Speaker 2: torch and carry it and move forward and keep his
4:08
Speaker 2: dream envision alive. You know, something that he had spent
4:11
Speaker 2: since he was eighteen years old, and yesterday would have
4:14
Speaker 2: been his i think thirty second birthday speaking of picking
4:18
Speaker 2: up torches, or at least attempting to pick up torches.
4:21
Speaker 2: It's gonna shift gears a little bit. And I want
4:22
Speaker 2: to talk about Don Lemon. Have you seen the video
4:27
Speaker 2: of there's multiple videos of Don Lemon embarrassing himself. He's
4:31
Speaker 2: trying to now do this. He's going to go out
4:33
Speaker 2: in the streets and interview people. Now, I'll be honest,
4:36
Speaker 2: I'm sure he's got video of himself out in the
4:40
Speaker 2: streets talking to people that doesn't embarrass him, it doesn't
4:45
Speaker 2: make him look really dumb. But the ones that tend
4:49
Speaker 2: to go viral the ones that really make him look stupid.
4:51
Speaker 2: And he's had some of the a few doozies here lately,
4:56
Speaker 2: one in particular, where he's out talking with some people
5:00
Speaker 2: on the street in Chicago, I believe, and he approaches
5:05
Speaker 2: a woman and he starts talking about, you know, immigrants
5:09
Speaker 2: that in the country, and this woman says, well, they're
5:13
Speaker 2: here illegally. They need to be taken away, and don
5:17
Speaker 2: Lemon quick to come in and say they're not. They
5:21
Speaker 2: haven't done anything wrong, they haven't broken the law. It's
5:24
Speaker 2: not illegal. It's just a misdemeanor. And this woman asking questions, well,
5:29
Speaker 2: why are they being taken out? There's there's you know,
5:31
Speaker 2: you're saying that they did something wrong and they're being
5:35
Speaker 2: taken away. There's consequences when you do something wrong. And
5:37
Speaker 2: it really made him look stupid. First of all, misdemeanors
5:42
Speaker 2: are breaking the law. I don't know when we've decided
5:46
Speaker 2: that a misdemeanor. You know, you speed, you break the
5:50
Speaker 2: law and then you have to pay a fine or
5:52
Speaker 2: you go to court or whatever. You could go to
5:54
Speaker 2: jail if you don't pay the fine. It's breaking the law.
5:59
Speaker 2: There there's there's there's motor vehicle laws that are misdemeanors.
6:04
Speaker 2: There's a number of laws that are missed in petty theft,
6:07
Speaker 2: small little thefts and things are missing, they're still you're
6:09
Speaker 2: still breaking the law. It's such a flawed argument to
6:14
Speaker 2: try to say that people in the country illegally aren't
6:17
Speaker 2: breaking the law. And he's trying to win over people,
6:21
Speaker 2: and more importantly, he's talking with people in Chicago, in
6:25
Speaker 2: this case, a black woman and a black man who
6:27
Speaker 2: were part of this interview, and he's just assuming they're
6:30
Speaker 2: going to be on his side. He's just assuming that
6:34
Speaker 2: they're going to see things the way that he does.
6:38
Speaker 2: I think a lot of people on the left, a
6:40
Speaker 2: lot of Democrats, have missed the fact that there are
6:42
Speaker 2: a lot of people breaking away. They don't want this anymore.
6:48
Speaker 2: And for all of the talk about, you know, the
6:51
Speaker 2: criticism that Charlie Kirk was and it was a proponent
6:54
Speaker 2: of this replacement theory that's been called conspiracy theory, and
6:59
Speaker 2: it's been called you know, it's a white white people scared.
7:02
Speaker 2: It's a it's a a one of those things that
7:07
Speaker 2: you say, well, just just white people afraid of people
7:11
Speaker 2: of color. You know, that's a it's a white power thing.
7:15
Speaker 2: You want to just keep you want to keep everything
7:17
Speaker 2: pure and white in America, And that's not it. At all.
7:21
Speaker 2: It's the concept, the philosophy, the theory that you have
7:27
Speaker 2: a certain group of people in this country on the
7:30
Speaker 2: left primarily probably got some rhino Republicans in there that
7:35
Speaker 2: are more than happy to have people flooding across the
7:38
Speaker 2: border because they feel like eighty percent of the time,
7:42
Speaker 2: your hedge and your bets, they're going to vote Democrat
7:45
Speaker 2: whenever they get an opportunity to do so. Once they're
7:49
Speaker 2: just allowed, well, we're just gonna let you stay. We're
7:52
Speaker 2: going to allow you to stay. You're gonna be here.
7:54
Speaker 2: This is it. We're drawing the line. This is no
7:56
Speaker 2: more to the next group. And that's kind of what's
8:04
Speaker 2: been happening. That's what's been happening. So you can sit
8:07
Speaker 2: back and you can say it's not a real thing
8:09
Speaker 2: if you want to, but it's what's been happening. And
8:13
Speaker 2: you can say, well it's it doesn't have to be
8:16
Speaker 2: about white people or not. Go get in line with
8:20
Speaker 2: everybody else and we'll let you in. You just got
8:24
Speaker 2: to go through the process. That's basically it. Oh you
8:26
Speaker 2: got a criminal record, Well, no, you're not coming in.
8:30
Speaker 2: We're not going to do that. Oh that's why you
8:32
Speaker 2: snuck in. Ah, got it. So anyway, the fact that
8:37
Speaker 2: these oh and Charlie Kirk, you know, people were accused
8:41
Speaker 2: him of being, Oh, this is what he's you know,
8:45
Speaker 2: spouting off. This is one of the five egregious sins
8:48
Speaker 2: of Charlie Kirk or whatever they were calling it. And
8:51
Speaker 2: one of the things that I think many on the
8:53
Speaker 2: left haven't really had a chance to wise up to
8:56
Speaker 2: is we've talked about it here. We have a lot
8:59
Speaker 2: now of Black Americans and then some Hispanic Americans who
9:04
Speaker 2: came in the country legally. Go down to any part
9:10
Speaker 2: of Florida that has a heavy Cuban population, talk to
9:15
Speaker 2: them about whether they want people just flooding across the
9:17
Speaker 2: border or not. No, they don't. They went through a
9:20
Speaker 2: process to be here, and they're happy to be here,
9:24
Speaker 2: and they want to stay away from socialism. They want
9:26
Speaker 2: to stay away from communism, they want to stay away
9:28
Speaker 2: from big government. It's why they came here. They want
9:31
Speaker 2: to get away from those things. So they feel like
9:35
Speaker 2: people are being allowed in to replace them. This is
9:40
Speaker 2: what we learned in polling in the last election. A
9:43
Speaker 2: lot of Black Americans feel like, wait a minute, Democrats
9:47
Speaker 2: were telling us they were looking out for us, and
9:49
Speaker 2: now they're not paying us any attention. They're worried about
9:52
Speaker 2: the interests of the people that have come in and
9:54
Speaker 2: where they're going to be, what free things they can
9:58
Speaker 2: get without even contribut to the cause. And then they're
10:02
Speaker 2: also worried about you know, LGBTQ plus people more than
10:06
Speaker 2: they're worried about Black Americans. They this has been a
10:10
Speaker 2: big revelation that came out in polling as people were
10:15
Speaker 2: going in to vote, and they're realizing, well, wait a minute,
10:18
Speaker 2: you're not looking out for us. So this is this
10:20
Speaker 2: replacement theory thing, and I don't think people like Don
10:23
Speaker 2: Lemon realize it. And you have Don Lemon, now who's
10:27
Speaker 2: he's you know, had his job at CNN. You could
10:31
Speaker 2: make the strong case he was a DEI higher. I
10:33
Speaker 2: don't know what the process was. I know a lot
10:37
Speaker 2: of people feel that way. I can't tell you definitively
10:41
Speaker 2: that's the case. All I can tell you is he
10:43
Speaker 2: lost his job after he said some really offensive things
10:46
Speaker 2: in the direction of women, women being past their prime.
10:51
Speaker 2: So Nikki Haley specifically, she was past her prime. He
10:55
Speaker 2: starts pulling out the stats on this and saying at
10:57
Speaker 2: what age women are past their prime. I mean, you
11:01
Speaker 2: gotta feel like you can say anything, to say something
11:04
Speaker 2: that stupid, you gotta just believe that you can say
11:09
Speaker 2: anything at all if you think you can do that,
11:11
Speaker 2: and he loses his job. And this is also applies
11:13
Speaker 2: to all the people who said horrible things about Charlie
11:15
Speaker 2: Kirking got fired. They got to believe that whatever they
11:19
Speaker 2: want to say, you can say it because you've been
11:21
Speaker 2: getting away with it. Any horrible, despicable thing you want
11:25
Speaker 2: to say, you could say it because there hasn't been repercussions,
11:29
Speaker 2: there hasn't been punishment. Suddenly there's punishment, and these people
11:32
Speaker 2: are confused, Wait a minute, what happened? This used to
11:35
Speaker 2: be okay. It's the same sort of shock that comedians
11:40
Speaker 2: must have experienced when they were out, you know, with
11:43
Speaker 2: their other comedians, different races, giving each other a hard time,
11:48
Speaker 2: joking about this, joking about that, doing their accent, doing
11:51
Speaker 2: their voice, and you know, taking opportunities to say, hey,
11:58
Speaker 2: this is a stereotype about you. Here's a stereotype about you.
12:01
Speaker 2: And they were doing all this stuff on stage and
12:05
Speaker 2: then suddenly one day it's like, no, you can't have
12:07
Speaker 2: your job anymore. We're not going to let you come
12:10
Speaker 2: and do comedy here anymore. We're not gonna support you.
12:12
Speaker 2: You can't host the Oscars, you can't be on Saturday
12:16
Speaker 2: Night Live. What happened. Nothing's changed, And there's that realization
12:20
Speaker 2: that happened with a lot of people with Charlie Kirk,
12:23
Speaker 2: the same people who were running those other people out
12:25
Speaker 2: of those jobs, because comedians got to be able to comedy, right,
12:31
Speaker 2: they got to I'm not defending all of it, but
12:33
Speaker 2: you know, there's got to be a certain amount of
12:36
Speaker 2: freedom to say I'm going to try this joke. If
12:38
Speaker 2: it doesn't work, doesn't work. And people weren't trying jokes
12:43
Speaker 2: on Charlie Kirk. They were trying despicable like, oh good,
12:46
Speaker 2: he's dead.
12:46
Speaker 1: Ha ha ha.
12:47
Speaker 2: That's not a joke. That's a big revelation of who
12:50
Speaker 2: you are. Anyway, back to Don Lemon, So what he's
12:53
Speaker 2: doing now is he's trying to You got all these
12:56
Speaker 2: people that are trying to go after what Republicans have
12:59
Speaker 2: been doing. You got candidates that are saying, well, we're
13:02
Speaker 2: going to start a podcast, we want to be on podcasts,
13:06
Speaker 2: we want to go on shows, we want to go
13:07
Speaker 2: talk to people, we want to go talk to some
13:10
Speaker 2: of the you know, the kind of the bro podcast
13:13
Speaker 2: they call them. And these weren't people that were saying, hey,
13:16
Speaker 2: we're we're going to specifically look for conservative or Republican candidates.
13:21
Speaker 2: These were the people that the candidates said, hey, we'd
13:24
Speaker 2: like to come on your show, and they said sure.
13:26
Speaker 2: Why would we not want to talk to a political candidate,
13:29
Speaker 2: a presidential candidate. I've talked to many over the years
13:33
Speaker 2: political candidates. I've talked to presidential candidates. I've interviewed them
13:38
Speaker 2: one on one. I've had the ability to do that.
13:42
Speaker 2: You do it. I've interviewed on both sides. You do it.
13:46
Speaker 2: You have the opportunity, you take it. That's what you do.
13:50
Speaker 2: You don't know when someone's going to be president, you
13:52
Speaker 2: don't know. You take it. That's what the podcasters did.
13:56
Speaker 2: So you got all these folks on the left now saying, well,
14:00
Speaker 2: Bro culture, we got to get on these shows, We
14:02
Speaker 2: got to be interviewed by these people so that we
14:05
Speaker 2: can be taken seriously. Let's start our own podcast. We're
14:09
Speaker 2: gonna do that. I'm gonna talk to people. You got
14:13
Speaker 2: folks like Gavin Newsom who's like, I'm gonna I want
14:16
Speaker 2: to do one of these shows where I just talk
14:18
Speaker 2: to everybody. I want to be like Bill Maher and
14:20
Speaker 2: just talk to people, just sit down and talk to him.
14:24
Speaker 2: And they expose you. Charlie Kirk is one of the
14:27
Speaker 2: people he talked to and exposed him. They call you
14:29
Speaker 2: out for who you are, and that's what's happened to them.
14:34
Speaker 2: And they're trying to say, Hey, we want to do
14:36
Speaker 2: these podcasts we want to do. We want to go
14:38
Speaker 2: out on the street and talk to people. That's what
14:40
Speaker 2: Don Lemon wants to do. Not as a candidate, but
14:42
Speaker 2: he thinks that's the way to approach people. He wants
14:45
Speaker 2: to get out. He's not Charlie Kirk. He'll never be
14:48
Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk. He can't express himself. That's not a crime,
14:52
Speaker 2: that's just a misdemeanor. You realize how easily Charlie Kirk
14:57
Speaker 2: could have destroyed someone trying to make that our argument
15:00
Speaker 2: to him if he walked up to him on the
15:01
Speaker 2: street and that's what they said. I mean, most of
15:04
Speaker 2: us could destroy that argument. This woman, this random woman
15:08
Speaker 2: that he walked up on, destroyed his argument right there
15:10
Speaker 2: to him. It's not the first time either, he's been
15:14
Speaker 2: lit up multiple times by people on the street. So
15:17
Speaker 2: this is the strategy. We're seeing it all playing out,
15:19
Speaker 2: this desperation, and it's not going well. They're trying, at
15:26
Speaker 2: least at this point some of them are, but it's
15:29
Speaker 2: still really sad and I don't see any of these
15:33
Speaker 2: strategies working for them. They're going to have to find
15:36
Speaker 2: something else. Today's show brought to you by Columbus State

18:09
Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
18:13
Speaker 2: sort of insulation issue that you've got with colder or
18:16
Speaker 2: warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
18:20
Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
18:22
Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
18:26
Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
18:28
Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor, you know,
18:32
Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
18:34
Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man cavid you'd
18:37
Speaker 2: like to be able to open the door up and
18:38
Speaker 2: not invite all the insects in. They can do that
18:41
Speaker 2: for you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
18:44
Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought. Of having your car
18:47
Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
18:50
Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, And they do
18:53
Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh sixty five eight forty five
18:56
Speaker 2: hundred seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred
18:59
Speaker 2: oh dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show. Right
19:04
Speaker 2: after the break, well, have you already bought candy for Halloween?
19:18
Speaker 2: And have you already started eating the candy that you
19:22
Speaker 2: bought for Halloween? A new survey found most Americans don't
19:26
Speaker 2: wait until Halloween night to indulge in the candy stash.
19:29
Speaker 2: Many actually go through it twice before Halloween arrives. In fact,
19:33
Speaker 2: twenty six percent of respondents submitted to restocking their supply
19:38
Speaker 2: three or more times. I mean, if you're an adult
19:43
Speaker 2: and you're not trick or treating anymore and you're just
19:46
Speaker 2: missing out on some of that candy, I can get it.
19:49
Speaker 2: I do, but three or four times that's a bit much,
19:54
Speaker 2: don't you think? Is your pet scared of Halloween decorations?
19:58
Speaker 2: Most dog owners know that when you walk your dog
20:01
Speaker 2: through the Halloween season, it can be tough, with decorations
20:05
Speaker 2: triggering a fight or flight reaction from dogs, and I
20:10
Speaker 2: mean it's basically theater decorations or costumes or whatever, but
20:17
Speaker 2: dogs don't know that. So you may know a giant
20:21
Speaker 2: skeleton in someone's front yard isn't real, but your dog
20:24
Speaker 2: doesn't know what it is and sees it as a threat.
20:27
Speaker 2: Same with trigger treatings. Actually on how a trigger treater
20:30
Speaker 2: is actually On Halloween night, your dog doesn't know the
20:33
Speaker 2: costumes aren't real, so your dog can be pretty anxious
20:39
Speaker 2: about all of it. Just leave the light off Halloween night,
20:43
Speaker 2: or maybe you know you sit out closer to the
20:46
Speaker 2: road in the driveway and visit the little ones as
20:50
Speaker 2: they come up there, or you want to leave the
20:53
Speaker 2: light out if you've eaten all of your candy four times?
20:57
Speaker 2: So how much are parents supporting their gen Z kids?
21:00
Speaker 2: A recent survey found nearly forty percent of recent grads
21:04
Speaker 2: that don't have full time jobs, and many are still
21:07
Speaker 2: job hunting or stuck in part time roles, and as
21:09
Speaker 2: a result, parents are stepping in big time, over half
21:12
Speaker 2: spending more than five hundred dollars a month supporting their
21:15
Speaker 2: adult kids. I mean, they're not really kids anymore at
21:18
Speaker 2: that point, are they? And one in three spend over
21:21
Speaker 2: one thousand. Some even expect to spend more than twenty
21:24
Speaker 2: thousand dollars before their child becomes financially independent with their
21:28
Speaker 2: own full time job. And the way it's breaking down,
21:34
Speaker 2: rent primarily kids living at home, rent free bills and
21:38
Speaker 2: living expenses, whether it's utilities, Wi Fi, groceries, transportation, cash,
21:45
Speaker 2: a monthly allowance for adult children, student loans helping to
21:49
Speaker 2: cover those, and then you know career things, coaching, resume services,
21:55
Speaker 2: and that's sort of clothing for interviews. I think that's
21:58
Speaker 2: I think you will find more people would be happy
22:01
Speaker 2: to do that for their kids that they're trying to
22:03
Speaker 2: kind of nudge them out of the nest, you know,
22:07
Speaker 2: career coaching or resume services or a new suit for
22:10
Speaker 2: an interview or whatever. I think that's probably I think
22:14
Speaker 2: more people would be there than wanting to pay their rent.
22:17
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that everybody who pays the rent
22:18
Speaker 2: wants to pay the rent. I'm just saying, if you
22:22
Speaker 2: sometimes like a savory hangover cure and have deep pockets,
22:26
Speaker 2: you might consider getting a bloody Mary at Claudio's Waterfront Restaurant,
22:30
Speaker 2: Long Island, New York A one twenty dollars brunch beverage.
22:35
Speaker 2: It's pretty huge, contains the usual tomato, juice and vodka,
22:39
Speaker 2: but also features a one and a quarter pound whole lobster,
22:43
Speaker 2: eight shrimp, celery stalks, jalapeno olives, bacon strips, and just
22:50
Speaker 2: a image and video of this particular bloody mary has
22:56
Speaker 2: gone viral. It's pretty ridiculous, and I don't know that
23:00
Speaker 2: it really counts as a drink when there's that much
23:02
Speaker 2: food involved. But bad news for countless dozens of people
23:06
Speaker 2: worldwide who use iPhone's Clips app, Apple is getting rid
23:10
Speaker 2: of the video editing feature. Once upon a time, it
23:12
Speaker 2: was an easy program for creating social media ready videos,
23:16
Speaker 2: but now with Instagram and TikTok offering pretty much those
23:20
Speaker 2: features directly on their platforms, it almost seems like it's
23:24
Speaker 2: not necessary. But if you're one of the people who's
23:26
Speaker 2: still using Clips in twenty twenty five, Apple suggests saving
23:30
Speaker 2: your videos to your photo library before the app goes
23:34
Speaker 2: away completely. So that's a heads up. It's going away.
23:40
Speaker 2: It's going away, you Clip users yet, yeah, iPhone Clip users.
23:45
Speaker 2: Astronauts who live in glass houses shouldn't throw moon rocks.
23:48
Speaker 2: Not a common expression, but it could be in the
23:50
Speaker 2: future with NASA teaming up with California based company called
23:54
Speaker 2: sky Reports. Sky Ports added an art at Nice sky
23:58
Speaker 2: Ports and they're playing to build lunar glass homes on
24:02
Speaker 2: the Moon's surface that will serve as futuristic habitats for
24:05
Speaker 2: astronauts to live in and work. The glass domes will
24:09
Speaker 2: be made from lunar regolith, which is dust and rock
24:13
Speaker 2: covering the Moon. Scientists figured out that it contains silicates
24:17
Speaker 2: which can be melted down and shaped into glass that
24:20
Speaker 2: would be stronger than typical glass we have here on Earth.
24:24
Speaker 2: The idea is currently being researched as part as NASA's
24:27
Speaker 2: Innovative Advanced Concepts Program. Can we get some of that
24:30
Speaker 2: glass here on Earth once we start regular trips back
24:34
Speaker 2: and forth, you know, get some of that dust down
24:37
Speaker 2: here and let's make that hard to break glass. Let's
24:39
Speaker 2: see how that goes. Maybe make some windshields out of it.
24:43
Speaker 2: That'll do it for this Wednesday edition of the show.
24:45
Speaker 2: Thanks to our sponsors and patrons. Thanks for listening. I'll
24:48
Speaker 2: catch you back here tomorrow morning.
