- 2:01Speaker 3: the sundown shining, And I found my mind in a
- 2:09Speaker 3: brown paper peg.
- 2:11Speaker 5: Butin I tripped on a cloud and fell eight miles
- 2:19Speaker 5: high high.
- 2:20Speaker 3: I tore mine back on a jagged sky.
- 2:24Speaker 6: I just dropped in to see what condition my condition
- 2:29Speaker 6: was in?
- 2:31Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, what condition?
- 2:34Speaker 7: Condition?
- 2:46Speaker 3: Welcome everybody to doctor Cooper's Natural Health Hours. It is
- 2:50Speaker 3: October fifteenth, and uh, it's been quite a week, a
- 2:56Speaker 3: lot going on. We got built back, thank goodness U.
- 3:00Speaker 3: So we got Susie Bill and myself and producer Steve
- 3:03Speaker 3: behind the screen and we are all here and hopefully
- 3:08Speaker 3: the show is good therapy to all of us because
- 3:11Speaker 3: we all needed. It's been a rough week. All right.
- 3:16Speaker 3: Before we start, many of you know that I have
- 3:21Speaker 3: a family member who's had a stroke and balance and
- 3:26Speaker 3: stuff has been kind of difficult, and they fell the
- 3:30Speaker 3: other day really bad. I mean scared me bad, hurt them.
- 3:39Speaker 3: The balance just isn't quite right, and that the numb
- 3:43Speaker 3: side of the body, the foot hit something and didn't
- 3:47Speaker 3: feel it and fell and tumbled hard. I mean, it
- 3:51Speaker 3: was heartbreaking. So I reached out to one of the
- 3:58Speaker 3: supervisors of the employee and my patient and said, hey,
- 4:04Speaker 3: I just wanted to update you. You guys are you know,
- 4:09Speaker 3: saying a lot of things and not only can she
- 4:14Speaker 3: not drive, but her balance isn't quite right and just
- 4:18Speaker 3: coming from the parking lot and upstairs and over curbs.
- 4:22Speaker 3: This is a big deal. But she's doing very well
- 4:27Speaker 3: at the computer and has trained herself to use that
- 4:31Speaker 3: left hand which doesn't go operate very well. And they
- 4:37Speaker 3: keep saying things like the other day somebody put out
- 4:41Speaker 3: the word to another person that she would be staying
- 4:46Speaker 3: at home working. Then a few days later somebody said,
- 4:51Speaker 3: your claim has been denied. Well, she never filed a claim.
- 4:56Speaker 3: She just politely notified them that I can't drive and
- 5:01Speaker 3: I'm doing very productive work at the home office, so hopefully,
- 5:06Speaker 3: you know, we won't have any problem. And I thought
- 5:12Speaker 3: it would be really good just to let him know
- 5:16Speaker 3: that she's having trouble walking also and the balance is
- 5:21Speaker 3: a problem. Well, the person that I contacted did not
- 5:26Speaker 3: contact me, but cried like a baby to somebody else
- 5:32Speaker 3: and they contacted my patient and said, please ask the
- 5:37Speaker 3: doctor not to call them because they can't do anything.
- 5:42Speaker 3: So I told the patient right back and tell them
- 5:45Speaker 3: the doctor didn't ask him to do anything. He was
- 5:49Speaker 3: giving him a friendly update because he knew they didn't
- 5:52Speaker 3: know about the balance. And they said, well, you know,
- 5:57Speaker 3: the claim has been denied and somebody in HR needs
- 6:01Speaker 3: to get with you. Well, there never was a claim filed.
- 6:06Speaker 3: And one of the things they said in the beginning
- 6:08Speaker 3: was your leave of absence application is pending. She never
- 6:13Speaker 3: asked for a leave of absence. She's working like a
- 6:16Speaker 3: champ every day. So I don't know what's wrong with
- 6:20Speaker 3: these people. I'm so embarrassed as a human being that
- 6:25Speaker 3: somebody at that company couldn't have said she had a stroke.
- 6:30Speaker 3: We're gonna let her continue working like she is. She's
- 6:34Speaker 3: one of our best employs. She starts work an hour
- 6:38Speaker 3: and a half early every day because she can. Before
- 6:42Speaker 3: she would have been on the road. So very sad. Anyway,
- 6:47Speaker 3: Susie and Bill go ahead and say hello and let's
- 6:49Speaker 3: start things rolling.
- 6:50Speaker 7: Susie, Hello, everyone.
- 6:55Speaker 3: That is all right, Well we are all back tonight.
- 7:00Speaker 3: We're going to talk about dental on my part, and
- 7:06Speaker 3: the reason I brought that up is over the years,
- 7:10Speaker 3: me and the dentists have disagreed a whole bunch. They
- 7:14Speaker 3: are taught fluoride is good for you, and they believe
- 7:18Speaker 3: that because they have never seen the truth about how
- 7:23Speaker 3: it damages the diroid and all the problems it causes
- 7:28Speaker 3: you're now seeing. I think the state of Florida was
- 7:31Speaker 3: the first ones that is banning fluoride and drinking water,
- 7:37Speaker 3: and so that's a good sign. That shows that somebody's
- 7:41Speaker 3: paying attention. And usually it's just politics, but also the
- 7:49Speaker 3: dental offices push every six months coming in for a
- 7:54Speaker 3: checkup and a cleaning. Well, my experience over the years
- 7:59Speaker 3: was all all those cleanings were wearing away the enamel
- 8:05Speaker 3: and then they start telling people you have receding gumline,
- 8:10Speaker 3: which from all the cleaning, it's damaged some of the
- 8:14Speaker 3: gums and it's taken away some of the enamel, so
- 8:18Speaker 3: you've got less tooth and the gums being worked too hard.
- 8:26Speaker 3: Probably thirty years ago, they used to tell people brush
- 8:29Speaker 3: your teeth until they bleed, and they thought that was
- 8:33Speaker 3: a good thing. It was not, And many of the
- 8:38Speaker 3: toothpastes today will say anti cavity fluoride toothpaste, and they
- 8:46Speaker 3: think the fluoride is helping stop cavities, and it's far
- 8:51Speaker 3: from that. There's tons of research out there that fluoride
- 8:54Speaker 3: is bad in so many ways, but mostly damaging your thyroid.
- 9:01Speaker 3: That's a big one. And it is amazing in this
- 9:04Speaker 3: day and age out there where Susie and Steve live,
- 9:11Speaker 3: that community voted to continue putting fluoride in their drinking water.
- 9:20Speaker 3: Most of the nation is waking up and they voted
- 9:24Speaker 3: to continue something very terrible, and we have no clue
- 9:28Speaker 3: all the damage that's done to people. So many things
- 9:33Speaker 3: about fluoride bad news, and how all of it started
- 9:38Speaker 3: was many years ago when they first start making aluminum,
- 9:43Speaker 3: one of the byproducts something they needed to get rid
- 9:48Speaker 3: of was fluoride, and the company aluminum Companies, start dumping
- 9:53Speaker 3: it on the land, and the farmers and the ranchers
- 9:58Speaker 3: all of a sudden had problems and they saw that
- 10:02Speaker 3: this was bad for the soil and the animals, so
- 10:05Speaker 3: they had taken them to court and aluminum companies had
- 10:10Speaker 3: to come up with something else. So then they start
- 10:12Speaker 3: working on mess political ad campaign to let everybody know
- 10:19Speaker 3: that fluoride was good for your teeth. And I don't
- 10:24Speaker 3: know how they sold it, but they did so. I
- 10:27Speaker 3: saw a commercial yesterday for a mouthwash and it said
- 10:32Speaker 3: anti cavity fluoride mouthwash. So and then some of these
- 10:40Speaker 3: companies that tell you their natural are making the fluoride
- 10:46Speaker 3: version and the non fluoride version. And one of them
- 10:51Speaker 3: is a toothpaste company, and I called them and I asked,
- 10:55Speaker 3: why you claim to be natural and healthy. Why are
- 11:00Speaker 3: you making a toothpaste that has fluoride in it when
- 11:05Speaker 3: you know that's bad. And their answer to me was,
- 11:09Speaker 3: some people don't know that, and they want fluoride because
- 11:12Speaker 3: they think it's good for them, so we put it
- 11:14Speaker 3: in there. You gotta wonder why they didn't just tell
- 11:21Speaker 3: people there's a ton of research that it's bad for you,
- 11:25Speaker 3: unless the people that are making fluoride and producing the
- 11:30Speaker 3: side the byproduct are paying a lot of money and
- 11:36Speaker 3: have very very powerful people pushing fluoride chemical, which is
- 11:43Speaker 3: probably the case. But the thing is, you don't want
- 11:47Speaker 3: to go get your teeth cleaned every six months. That's
- 11:50Speaker 3: a bad thing, no matter what they tell you. I
- 11:54Speaker 3: had one patient who had let them do it so
- 11:58Speaker 3: long that they told her that your gums have receded
- 12:03Speaker 3: so bad, we need to do a skin graft from
- 12:07Speaker 3: the roof of your mouth and put that skin around
- 12:11Speaker 3: your teeth to restore the gums. I still hurt thinking
- 12:17Speaker 3: about that. And all it was was too many cleanings.
- 12:23Speaker 3: And I one time dated a dental hygienis from New
- 12:27Speaker 3: Orleans and we did not agree on too stuff. And
- 12:32Speaker 3: as I got more and more educated as a doctor,
- 12:35Speaker 3: the more I learned, the more horrified I was how
- 12:39Speaker 3: strong they pushed people to come get your teeth cleaned
- 12:44Speaker 3: and take your fluoride toothpaste and fluoride tablets. Hey, they
- 12:51Speaker 3: had all kinds of stuff at these dental offices. And
- 12:55Speaker 3: I've had several discussions with dentists and they really believe
- 13:00Speaker 3: that the fluoride is good. They have been told that,
- 13:04Speaker 3: and they've not been told any of the truth, none
- 13:07Speaker 3: of the other research, just the part kind of like
- 13:11Speaker 3: watching mainstream news. I guess so very very sad what
- 13:16Speaker 3: I tell everybody. When we used to do the industritional consoles,
- 13:21Speaker 3: part of that was with dental stuff too, and I
- 13:24Speaker 3: would show them a few choices of toothpaste without fluoride
- 13:30Speaker 3: and natural is possible. I would tell them brush your
- 13:34Speaker 3: teeth in the morning when you wake up if you
- 13:38Speaker 3: want to brush your teeth throughout the day. For a
- 13:41Speaker 3: lot of people that's not real possible because you're at work.
- 13:45Speaker 3: And then I said brush your teeth before bed. But
- 13:49Speaker 3: before you brush your teeth, floss, so floss every night,
- 13:53Speaker 3: wrench your mouth, and then brush your teeth. And there
- 13:57Speaker 3: are plenty of natural mouthwashes out there without fluoride. And
- 14:03Speaker 3: I would recommend that you rent your mouth with the
- 14:07Speaker 3: mouthwash at least a few times a week, but once
- 14:11Speaker 3: a day would be better. So what you're doing, you're
- 14:14Speaker 3: gonna brush your teeth at least twice a day, rense
- 14:17Speaker 3: with the mouthwash, and floss before bedtime and before that
- 14:22Speaker 3: final brushing, and you won't have a lot of the
- 14:25Speaker 3: tooth problems. Now, if you need supplementation and nutritional little
- 14:34Speaker 3: support for your your teeth, there are all kinds of
- 14:40Speaker 3: good products through standard processing METI herb to help you
- 14:45Speaker 3: with that. There's a complete dental protocol for the dentists,
- 14:51Speaker 3: so they know what they can do and products they
- 14:55Speaker 3: can recommend for you. And you know, we we've got
- 15:00Speaker 3: things to help make the teeth stronger to make to
- 15:03Speaker 3: heal the gums to repair the loss of your receding
- 15:11Speaker 3: gum lines that they tell you about, and you just
- 15:14Speaker 3: got to watch out because they give you a lot
- 15:16Speaker 3: of bad advice, and that's what happens, is cavities and
- 15:25Speaker 3: thyroid problems and receding gumb lines and loss of enamel
- 15:32Speaker 3: on the teeth, all those things that could have been prevented.
- 15:39Speaker 3: And there's plenty of things we can take to help
- 15:44Speaker 3: even after that, and a lot of things you know,
- 15:48Speaker 3: like they're real big on root canals. Well, years ago,
- 15:53Speaker 3: I didn't know anything about that, and like everybody else,
- 15:56Speaker 3: I had some of that done to me and it
- 15:59Speaker 3: didn't do anything because lots and lots of problems. And
- 16:04Speaker 3: so as you figure out more of this, there's more
- 16:08Speaker 3: things you can do. We've got good products like calcil
- 16:12Speaker 3: food wafers, we've got biodent, we've got different dental things.
- 16:21Speaker 3: Just the natural every day nutrition like cattalin and calcium lactate.
- 16:30Speaker 3: These are things that are going to help keep your
- 16:34Speaker 3: teeth healthy. So there's a lot of stuff you can do,
- 16:40Speaker 3: but you don't want to be doing every six months
- 16:44Speaker 3: getting your teeth cleaned and going down that road it's
- 16:48Speaker 3: a very very bad road. So, like I said, a lot,
- 16:52Speaker 3: a lot of the dentists and I have disagreed big
- 16:56Speaker 3: time when we got into those discussions, and I'd just
- 17:00Speaker 3: tell them, I'm sorry, but you guys haven't seen all
- 17:02Speaker 3: the research. And I always kept some to show them.
- 17:07Speaker 3: And some of them I think have open minds and
- 17:10Speaker 3: they'll think about it, but they're so brainwashed and so
- 17:14Speaker 3: trained on what they do. It's hard for them. So
- 17:19Speaker 3: you know, you got to take care of yourself now.
- 17:22Speaker 3: Some people insist they'll keep going so they need to
- 17:26Speaker 3: get the gum transplant, or they try to re enamel
- 17:31Speaker 3: their teeth, or they wonder why our teeth are so sensitive. Well,
- 17:36Speaker 3: all them cleanings, it's very very bad and you shouldn't
- 17:41Speaker 3: be doing it. I think that's one of the worst
- 17:45Speaker 3: things in the world when they start doing your cleanings
- 17:50Speaker 3: and then they want to One of the funny things
- 17:54Speaker 3: to me is they check your blood pressure when you
- 17:56Speaker 3: go in. Well, i'm gonna tell you what for most
- 18:00Speaker 3: people go into the dentist is a very unpleasant thing.
- 18:05Speaker 3: In most cases, I would say there's probably a few
- 18:07Speaker 3: that are not. And your blood pressure is a little
- 18:10Speaker 3: high because you know, I'm probably gonna get drilled on
- 18:15Speaker 3: at a shot and not pleasant, so the body naturally
- 18:22Speaker 3: is going to protest. So I just say it's so
- 18:27Speaker 3: much easier stay away from that stuff. Take care of
- 18:32Speaker 3: your teeth. Brush in the morning, rents with a mouth
- 18:36Speaker 3: washed through out today, floss at night, then brush, and
- 18:42Speaker 3: I think you'll be far far ahead. And the best
- 18:46Speaker 3: thing you can do is if you see a dentist offices,
- 18:49Speaker 3: walk around it, and there are going to be times
- 18:53Speaker 3: when you have no choice, something has to be pulled
- 18:56Speaker 3: or there's a real problem, and those are I think
- 19:00Speaker 3: more rare. But I remember as a kid I went
- 19:07Speaker 3: to a dentist and they wanted to do braces, and
- 19:11Speaker 3: he's the dentist was telling me. He said, yeah, I
- 19:13Speaker 3: could have played football, but I do braces now and
- 19:19Speaker 3: I make a fortune, so that was a pretty good
- 19:23Speaker 3: incentive for him. All right, Susie anything.
- 19:28Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 19:28Speaker 7: I think it's interesting how they take a poisonous byproduct,
- 19:33Speaker 7: they sell it to cities. Cities don't have money, they
- 19:38Speaker 7: take the people's money and buy poison and then people
- 19:42Speaker 7: drink it. Interesting, Bill, Yeah, that's so.
- 19:52Speaker 8: You wonder whatever happened to the will of the people.
- 19:55Speaker 8: On the other hand, most folks, I think, kind of
- 19:59Speaker 8: buy into the that they've been told a lot of
- 20:01Speaker 8: this stuff is good for them. There's always a kooky
- 20:05Speaker 8: friends who says, no, it's not, and we all know
- 20:08Speaker 8: that they're kind of strange people, but it's okay. You
- 20:15Speaker 8: grow up hearing all this sort of stuff. And I
- 20:17Speaker 8: think with a lot of folks, because I've known a
- 20:19Speaker 8: number of datis in my life, not many people take
- 20:24Speaker 8: real good care of their teeth. And they don't. As
- 20:27Speaker 8: you say that the hygiene that they that we kind
- 20:32Speaker 8: of take for granted and that we hopefully will practice
- 20:34Speaker 8: this is you know, now, they don't do it, and
- 20:37Speaker 8: you know, they lose all their teeth by the time
- 20:38Speaker 8: they're fifty and they don't know why. But you know,
- 20:42Speaker 8: their parents for that way, and their grandparents are that way,
- 20:45Speaker 8: so it must be all right. So it's a hard
- 20:50Speaker 8: it's a hard thing to de buck that tradition that
- 20:53Speaker 8: these people have been beginning with for generations.
- 20:59Speaker 3: Yeah, and like I said, we we have entire dentistry
- 21:04Speaker 3: protocols for the dentists, but more for the patients, you know,
- 21:10Speaker 3: like root canal, cataplex ACP right off the bat, that's
- 21:16Speaker 3: gonna help with nerve pain, any kind of infection. And
- 21:20Speaker 3: then you need some neuroplex if you're having problem with
- 21:26Speaker 3: swollen gums, cataplex ACP to the rescue again with contoplex,
- 21:35Speaker 3: so much stuff, chlorophyll for healing and promotion of healing.
- 21:41Speaker 3: Bro if you've had a problem with the jawbone, our
- 21:46Speaker 3: brittal teeth, bios bio dent, calcil, food wafers, ligaplex one
- 21:53Speaker 3: and two. So many things that we have that could help.
- 22:00Speaker 3: Sometimes people have a bad taste in their mouth. That
- 22:04Speaker 3: usually tells us there's a gut problem. So you want
- 22:07Speaker 3: something like Lockedan's or AFA to food things like that.
- 22:11Speaker 3: It's to start fixing that problem. But the big thing
- 22:15Speaker 3: is they've sold people very well on getting your teeth
- 22:20Speaker 3: cleaned every six months, and I say that's the worst
- 22:24Speaker 3: thing you can do, and they hate when I say that.
- 22:29Speaker 3: Does anybody do that to any of you guys? Go
- 22:32Speaker 3: pretty regular? Nope, Susie, I don't remember if you did.
- 22:43Speaker 3: You used to do that.
- 22:47Speaker 7: I never did it every six months.
- 22:50Speaker 8: That just.
- 22:54Speaker 7: Something tell me they're not you know, they're not taking
- 23:00Speaker 7: care of me. You know. I found it interesting many
- 23:05Speaker 7: family members that were religious about there every six months.
- 23:11Speaker 7: Most of them were told receiving gum thing, Well, if
- 23:17Speaker 7: it worked, if it was efficient, then that wouldn't be happening.
- 23:27Speaker 7: So I just I'm a free thinker.
- 23:31Speaker 3: Yeah, you were ahead of the curve on a lot
- 23:35Speaker 3: of things, especially with your kids growing up. But so
- 23:39Speaker 3: many people, you know, they thought it was good when
- 23:42Speaker 3: we do those consults in my office and we got
- 23:45Speaker 3: around to dental and I said, no, I would not
- 23:49Speaker 3: do the cleaning. People are like, wow, you know a
- 23:52Speaker 3: lot of them were glad to hear that because they
- 23:54Speaker 3: didn't like going for it anyway, but they thought it
- 23:56Speaker 3: was necessary. And what I saw was the the side
- 24:00Speaker 3: of the coin, all the problems, the receding gums, the
- 24:05Speaker 3: brittle teeth, all that stuff, loose teeth because it's brushing.
- 24:11Speaker 3: And like I said, I don't remember how many years,
- 24:14Speaker 3: at least thirty years ago, maybe longer, there was a
- 24:19Speaker 3: whole generation that was told brush your teeth till they bleed.
- 24:26Speaker 3: And we all know that doesn't make good sense. That
- 24:29Speaker 3: tells you you're doing something wrong. But if you do
- 24:33Speaker 3: have bleeding ladies and gentlemen, I would suggest Seruda plus
- 24:42Speaker 3: and Calmel plus, which is a calcium, magnesium and some
- 24:50Speaker 3: other stuff in there to help deal with that. But
- 24:53Speaker 3: the seruda especially it's very good to help with bleeding
- 24:59Speaker 3: tissue and all. So dermotrophin p MG, which is a
- 25:03Speaker 3: skin product. And if if you've got loose tissue or
- 25:10Speaker 3: or you know, just skin loosely around the gums, you
- 25:14Speaker 3: might want to do dermotrophin. That's that can help an
- 25:17Speaker 3: awful lot. So it's a lot of a lot of
- 25:21Speaker 3: good things. Some of the things that we used to
- 25:23Speaker 3: do for people with broken bones worked very well with
- 25:29Speaker 3: people for loose teeth and enamel loss and all that
- 25:34Speaker 3: good stuff. Uh, and just doing cattle in if you
- 25:38Speaker 3: didn't do anything else but cattle and you're ahead by
- 25:43Speaker 3: a long shot. And things like the calmal plus that's
- 25:52Speaker 3: that's for calcium deficiencies, osteoporosis, calcium utilization, and it's it's
- 26:01Speaker 3: just a very very important product. It's got the parathyroid desiccate,
- 26:08Speaker 3: so for your parayroid, it's got calcium lactate. I think
- 26:14Speaker 3: there's some magnesium and very important stuff for your teeth,
- 26:19Speaker 3: biodent bios. These are all good things for good, strong,
- 26:26Speaker 3: healthy teeth. So if you get a tooth problem and
- 26:29Speaker 3: you're not sure, contact us. We'll be glad to help you.
- 26:33Speaker 3: There's a lot of things you can do and they're
- 26:35Speaker 3: a lot less expensive then going to the dentist. And like,
- 26:44Speaker 3: we have a lot of people with insurance, but their
- 26:48Speaker 3: insurance doesn't pay very well. And what they do is
- 26:52Speaker 3: you get charged that same amount whether you have insurance
- 26:56Speaker 3: or not, and you've got to pay the difference and
- 26:59Speaker 3: that stuff for a lot of people. There are some
- 27:02Speaker 3: insurance companies out there that write some reasonable things, but
- 27:08Speaker 3: one of the things is bad about almost all the
- 27:10Speaker 3: insurance companies, whether it's dental or health, is they have
- 27:15Speaker 3: people on the other side whose job is to look
- 27:18Speaker 3: at every claim and reject as best they can. They
- 27:25Speaker 3: are not in the business of paying claims. So just
- 27:29Speaker 3: because you think you've got great insurance does not mean that. Now,
- 27:33Speaker 3: if you have a really good insurance plan and you
- 27:35Speaker 3: work for a really, really great company, it may pay
- 27:39Speaker 3: enough where they leave you alone. But that's hard. So
- 27:44Speaker 3: back to brush your teeth in the morning when you
- 27:47Speaker 3: wake up, mouthwash once a day, both products, no fluoride,
- 27:53Speaker 3: floss your teeth before bedtime, then brush and you should
- 27:58Speaker 3: be doing pretty good. And you can brush during today
- 28:01Speaker 3: if you need to. Most people don't don't have that
- 28:04Speaker 3: ability if they're at work. And even if you're not
- 28:07Speaker 3: at work, you probably don't think about brushing your teeth
- 28:10Speaker 3: during the day, but when you wake up and at
- 28:12Speaker 3: night before you go to bed, very important. So Susie,
- 28:16Speaker 3: anything else, no, Heil, how about you?
- 28:27Speaker 8: Yeah? Well, you know, the last couple of dentists that
- 28:31Speaker 8: I had were very much opposed to fluoride products. I
- 28:36Speaker 8: think that there's a growing awareness of that and people
- 28:41Speaker 8: are a dentists are understanding that there's things that happen
- 28:47Speaker 8: also for the clay of floridder are really not worth
- 28:52Speaker 8: it they I think again, from what I remember talking
- 28:59Speaker 8: to these fellows was that general dental hygiene in this
- 29:03Speaker 8: country is really pretty bad. And the thing about brushing
- 29:07Speaker 8: a lot is to try and get a lot of this,
- 29:10Speaker 8: a lot of the food out from between the teeth,
- 29:12Speaker 8: whether the k will start. But you know, the people
- 29:16Speaker 8: hurry enough to get out of the house in the morning,
- 29:19Speaker 8: they just don't do it. And again it's a choice
- 29:21Speaker 8: of how much how much effort at changing lifestyle do
- 29:26Speaker 8: we take to kind of take care of our our
- 29:29Speaker 8: health and most folks just don't think about it a
- 29:32Speaker 8: whole lot.
- 29:34Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you're right, and it sounds like, Uh,
- 29:37Speaker 3: the last couple of dentists that you've dealt with were
- 29:41Speaker 3: very very rare, because so many that I talked to, uh,
- 29:47Speaker 3: and so many patients were still being told, you know,
- 29:51Speaker 3: you need to get your teeth cleaned every six months.
- 29:54Speaker 3: And like I said, I do you remember growing up, Bill,
- 30:00Speaker 3: if they were of them, they were still telling people
- 30:04Speaker 3: the brush to you bleed.
- 30:07Speaker 8: I never heard that. Yeah, that was that.
- 30:10Speaker 3: Was real popular. I don't remember where, but I heard
- 30:16Speaker 3: about it for many years. And they said that's what
- 30:19Speaker 3: they were told when they were kids.
- 30:21Speaker 8: Yeah. No, I never heard that until until you said tonight. Yeah,
- 30:27Speaker 8: I'm like, a pretty stupid idea.
- 30:29Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, but they thought it was good. They this
- 30:32Speaker 3: goes way way back to the idea bleeding was pershing,
- 30:37Speaker 3: and so they thought they were doing something good. But
- 30:39Speaker 3: that was not good. All right, guys, Well, this is
- 30:42Speaker 3: doctor Grouper's Natural Health Hours. It is the fifteenth of October,

- 34:13Speaker 9: I'll shore know I'm there.
- 34:16Speaker 3: I'm holding up no better, and I'm still too young.
- 34:22Speaker 4: Everybody, all right, we are back.
- 34:41Speaker 3: Welcome back to doctor Cooper's Natural Health Hours. It is
- 34:46Speaker 3: October fifteenth, and we've got the full crew tonight and
- 34:50Speaker 3: we're so grateful to have everybody back. We were talking
- 34:55Speaker 3: about dental stuff, and I just leave you with this
- 35:02Speaker 3: brush in the morning, toothpaste with no fluoride, natural as
- 35:07Speaker 3: you can find, mouthwash maybe once a day, no fluoride,
- 35:13Speaker 3: and at the end of your day floss, then brush
- 35:19Speaker 3: rints and you should be good to go. And I
- 35:24Speaker 3: recommend you have a right to do whatever you want,
- 35:26Speaker 3: but I recommend no six month cleaning. Going to the dentist,
- 35:31Speaker 3: in my opinion, should only be when you have no
- 35:34Speaker 3: other choice, if you're in so much pain and a
- 35:37Speaker 3: tooth is killing you. There's things we can try, and
- 35:41Speaker 3: a lot of time it's very successful. But sometimes once
- 35:44Speaker 3: they get that bad, it's been building for a while
- 35:47Speaker 3: and maybe what we want to do is not going
- 35:50Speaker 3: to be fast enough to stop all that pain. But
- 35:53Speaker 3: you know that's going to be your call. But there
- 35:56Speaker 3: are a lot of things we can try. All right,
- 36:00Speaker 3: We don't have any other comments from Susie or Bille
- 36:03Speaker 3: on this stuff. We'll jump right in here to some
- 36:07Speaker 3: of the wonderful humor that we find on this show.
- 36:14Speaker 3: Susie hit this made me think of a lot of women.
- 36:20Speaker 3: The woman says to the people that she's talking to
- 36:27Speaker 3: that handle funerals and all that good stuff, the undertakers
- 36:31Speaker 3: at the martuary or whatever it's called. She said, when
- 36:36Speaker 3: I die, I want to be buried with my husband,
- 36:42Speaker 3: even if he's still alive. That's as cruel, that's as cruel.
- 36:51Speaker 3: All right, I know both you fell out of your
- 36:53Speaker 3: chairst laughing. I'm sure all right. There was a blonde
- 36:58Speaker 3: and she got a brand new car, and she was
- 37:02Speaker 3: going to visit a friend who was just a couple
- 37:05Speaker 3: hours away. And when she came back, it took her
- 37:10Speaker 3: three days, but it only took her two hours to
- 37:14Speaker 3: get to her friends going there. And the mom came
- 37:17Speaker 3: out and said, what happened? What took you so long?
- 37:21Speaker 3: And she said, these damn new cars. They got three
- 37:24Speaker 3: or four gears for going forward and only one gear
- 37:29Speaker 3: said return. So she put it in reverse and drove
- 37:33Speaker 3: home that way. That's pretty good, all right, Susy. I'm
- 37:40Speaker 3: sure you're going to agree with this. Huntley's probably there
- 37:43Speaker 3: and he'll agree says, how do you know when a
- 37:47Speaker 3: woman is getting ready to say something really intelligent, the
- 37:55Speaker 3: sentence will always start with A man told me, And
- 38:03Speaker 3: I gotta agree with that. That makes sense, all right?
- 38:09Speaker 3: All right? The guys said, my girlfriend and I have
- 38:12Speaker 3: been together for five long years. And he said, we
- 38:19Speaker 3: just found out today she's pregnant. He said, I'm going
- 38:24Speaker 3: to miss her. That was one from the dark one.
- 38:28Speaker 3: Susy right. Wife says she calls her husband on the
- 38:36Speaker 3: phone and he answers, and his wife says, where are you?
- 38:40Speaker 3: He said, I just got back from home Depot. What's
- 38:44Speaker 3: going on? She said, you forgot I went with you,
- 38:50Speaker 3: because guys kind of get a little carried away at
- 38:53Speaker 3: home Depot, all right. And then the last one, a
- 38:59Speaker 3: man is at the super Bowl and he's in some
- 39:04Speaker 3: pretty nice seats and I think all of them are
- 39:08Speaker 3: pretty expensive, and he notices the seat next to him
- 39:13Speaker 3: is empty at the super Bowl in pretty expensive seats,
- 39:19Speaker 3: and he asked the guy next to him, he said,
- 39:23Speaker 3: what's the deal with this empty seat? I can't believe
- 39:26Speaker 3: it at super Bowl? He said, Well, that's my wife's
- 39:31Speaker 3: used to be my wife's seat, and we used to
- 39:34Speaker 3: go to all the Super Bowls together, and she passed away,
- 39:39Speaker 3: and the guy said to him, well, couldn't you have
- 39:43Speaker 3: found another family member, you know, or a friend or
- 39:47Speaker 3: somebody to go with you? He said, no, they're all
- 39:52Speaker 3: at the funeral. All right, that was good. I don't
- 39:57Speaker 3: care what you say, you know, Yeah, choice super Bowl
- 40:06Speaker 3: or a funeral where nobody's going to be there anyway.
- 40:11Speaker 3: I'm thinking that's a hard but who knows. All right,
- 40:16Speaker 3: So back to the issue with my patient that had
- 40:20Speaker 3: the stroke. I pray none of you ever go through this,
- 40:25Speaker 3: because it's a really bad thing. You'll notice their balances off. Probably,
- 40:32Speaker 3: you'll notice sometimes the memory is not right, little things
- 40:38Speaker 3: are different, and I've I have noticed when you have
- 40:42Speaker 3: those kind of issues, and I've dealt with stroke patients before.
- 40:48Speaker 3: Just let them go. You don't need to remind them
- 40:51Speaker 3: or let them know they forgot to do this or
- 40:54Speaker 3: But one of the things that's nice whenever you're around them, hell,
- 41:00Speaker 3: help them if you're outside going somewhere, help them walk,
- 41:04Speaker 3: hold their hand, just to steady him. They most time
- 41:07Speaker 3: they can do really well, but every once in a while,
- 41:10Speaker 3: like what happened to my patient the other day that
- 41:15Speaker 3: left foot, which is the numb side bumped into a
- 41:20Speaker 3: little lip coming in from a patio into the house
- 41:27Speaker 3: and didn't feel that and it threw their body with
- 41:32Speaker 3: the force like I've I'm just still in shock thinking
- 41:36Speaker 3: about it. It was so sad, hard to the floor,
- 41:40Speaker 3: and I mean the toe was stubbed and swollen and
- 41:46Speaker 3: black and blue. The knee was swollen and black and blue.
- 41:51Speaker 3: The one arm all tore up. Luckily they were okay.
- 41:59Speaker 3: Other than that, I mean, it was just amazing, scary
- 42:04Speaker 3: but amazing, And it's so frustrating. This employer. They put
- 42:12Speaker 3: her through hell with paperwork and a lot of paperwork
- 42:15Speaker 3: that her doctor had to do, which is me. And
- 42:19Speaker 3: they would ask like, fill out this farm for your
- 42:27Speaker 3: requested leave of absence. Well that's not what she was doing.
- 42:31Speaker 3: She never filed the claim for anything, and now they're
- 42:35Speaker 3: telling her her claim was denied, but she never filed
- 42:39Speaker 3: a claim, So I don't know what they're talking about.
- 42:44Speaker 3: Nobody is really saying much of anything. They keep passing
- 42:48Speaker 3: the buck and the person that I called to update
- 42:53Speaker 3: them about the difficulty with balance sometimes because that would
- 42:58Speaker 3: be very dangerous at an office, even if somebody picked
- 43:03Speaker 3: her up and took her to work, and she would
- 43:08Speaker 3: like that she's got cabin fever and would like to
- 43:10Speaker 3: get out of the house once in a while and
- 43:12Speaker 3: go back to the office. That would have been a
- 43:14Speaker 3: good thing had all this not happen. But that person,
- 43:19Speaker 3: she thought, was a kind of like a friend, if
- 43:22Speaker 3: as close as you get to having friends at work,
- 43:24Speaker 3: I guess, And this person's a supervisor, so she thought
- 43:30Speaker 3: that they would be more receptive and caring, and they
- 43:35Speaker 3: wouldn't even take the phone call from me, but they
- 43:39Speaker 3: made sure they called somebody else and cried and complained
- 43:44Speaker 3: that I shouldn't call them. The doctor should not call
- 43:48Speaker 3: them because she can't do nothing. Well, I told the patient,
- 43:54Speaker 3: you need to write him back and tell him your
- 43:56Speaker 3: doctor didn't ask him to do anything. He was trying
- 43:59Speaker 3: to give him an update. And in the past, anytime
- 44:03Speaker 3: you have a company or insurance company, people like updates.
- 44:08Speaker 3: They like to know what's going on with the patient.
- 44:11Speaker 3: So I thought that was a good thing, and it
- 44:13Speaker 3: would help them to know that you don't want this
- 44:17Speaker 3: person falling down at work. They can't drive to get there,
- 44:21Speaker 3: so if you got them there somehow and they fell
- 44:26Speaker 3: and got hurt, they might be changing the name of
- 44:29Speaker 3: the company to their name, and you don't want to
- 44:32Speaker 3: get into that. So I give them an update helping
- 44:34Speaker 3: them make better decisions, and I guess they didn't want
- 44:39Speaker 3: to hear it because they wouldn't even talk to me,
- 44:41Speaker 3: and that's never happened. Usually they want to talk to
- 44:45Speaker 3: the doctor. So I thought we were doing good there,
- 44:49Speaker 3: and then the other day she hears this conversation out
- 44:54Speaker 3: here's it sees an email conversation saying that, yeah, she's
- 44:58Speaker 3: going to be working from home. They're talking about her.
- 45:02Speaker 3: And then about a week later, here's that your claim
- 45:07Speaker 3: has been denied. Well, if you don't file a claim,
- 45:12Speaker 3: I don't know what they're talking about. And this is
- 45:15Speaker 3: something I don't think has ever happened to this company.
- 45:19Speaker 3: They don't have a procedure or a policy. Everybody's just
- 45:23Speaker 3: passing the buck because they're all a bunch of spineless jellyfish.
- 45:27Speaker 3: But somebody could have made a decision. All you had
- 45:30Speaker 3: to say was great employee number one almost every single month.
- 45:37Speaker 3: And what they do, they're going to have to work
- 45:40Speaker 3: from home, which you're doing fabulously right now. It's no
- 45:44Speaker 3: inconvenience to anybody. And if they're worried about somebody else complaining.
- 45:51Speaker 3: Is somebody else want to have a stroke? I hope not.
- 45:55Speaker 3: I mean, it's a horrible, horrible thing. And I'm so
- 45:59Speaker 3: proud of this a patient of mine that has still
- 46:03Speaker 3: been working and struggling, because most people would have filed
- 46:08Speaker 3: for disability by now, and this person wants to work
- 46:13Speaker 3: and likes what they do and really loves working for
- 46:16Speaker 3: this company. And thought the supervisor that I called today
- 46:21Speaker 3: was a really good person who would care. But that
- 46:26Speaker 3: turned out not to be true. The true colors of
- 46:29Speaker 3: this person came through today. Susie anything on all that.
- 46:35Speaker 7: It's almost like they got the internal memo from a
- 46:42Speaker 7: lawyer to not talk to you.
- 46:47Speaker 3: Yeah, you might be right. I've never run into that.
- 46:51Speaker 3: I've had lots of patients with these problems, and usually
- 46:55Speaker 3: they like the information. And then today they had the nerve.
- 47:00Speaker 3: After all the paperwork and the nightmare and faxing and
- 47:05Speaker 3: mailing and emailing, this guy contacts her and says, you
- 47:12Speaker 3: don't want to have your doctor contact this person because
- 47:15Speaker 3: they can't do nothing, and you might want to submit
- 47:21Speaker 3: more documentation. So I told her right back and tell
- 47:28Speaker 3: them number one, your doctor was giving them a friendly
- 47:32Speaker 3: update so they can make better decisions, and never asked
- 47:37Speaker 3: anybody to do anything and let them know that all
- 47:43Speaker 3: the information and paperwork concerning this stroke and this patient
- 47:50Speaker 3: has been submitted. So then the guy came back and said, well,
- 47:54Speaker 3: the head of HR I'll get with her next week.
- 47:58Speaker 3: So here we got a situation where they've never had
- 48:02Speaker 3: this kind of deal. They keep saying the claim's been
- 48:05Speaker 3: denied and that was from a third party outside of
- 48:09Speaker 3: their company. I mean, that's how childish this is, that
- 48:14Speaker 3: somebody could have just made a simple decision. This person's
- 48:18Speaker 3: working their butt off and doing great right where they're at.
- 48:21Speaker 3: Why do we want to mess that up? They haven't
- 48:24Speaker 3: done anything to deserve that. They're doing a good job
- 48:27Speaker 3: for us, But instead they quickly kicked the can up
- 48:33Speaker 3: the field to an outside contracting firm that handles leave
- 48:40Speaker 3: of absences. Made no sense, None of the paperwork had
- 48:47Speaker 3: anything to do with the situation. And then one of
- 48:51Speaker 3: the things they had to nerve to say last week
- 48:54Speaker 3: was that somebody high up said transferred to has nothing
- 49:02Speaker 3: to do with your employment, but falling down they might
- 49:09Speaker 3: want to think about. So, I don't know, I've never
- 49:12Speaker 3: heard of nothing, so ridiculous, and because it's family, it
- 49:16Speaker 3: irritates me even more. But it would irritate me no
- 49:19Speaker 3: matter what, Bill, what do you think.
- 49:24Speaker 8: A couple of things, Well, why would you want to
- 49:29Speaker 8: keep looking for a company like this? And the second
- 49:32Speaker 8: thing is, don't you have hippo problems with calling an
- 49:39Speaker 8: employer about a patient? Say that again, don't you have
- 49:46Speaker 8: hippo problems? There's a conflict there. Don't You're talking about
- 49:50Speaker 8: a patient with a third party, and particularly an employer.
- 49:56Speaker 8: That doesn't that create some issues?
- 49:59Speaker 3: Well, they already know I'm her doctor that she told
- 50:04Speaker 3: me nothing.
- 50:05Speaker 9: But yeah, usually whenever we've had to do things like that,
- 50:09Speaker 9: they were all kinds of the patient had to sign
- 50:11Speaker 9: a disclaimer, they had to be forwarded to the you know,
- 50:14Speaker 9: all kinds of stuff that go. You just we were
- 50:17Speaker 9: not able to talk to and even in private practice
- 50:20Speaker 9: to talk if somebody's somebody's spouse called up and said
- 50:24Speaker 9: how is he doing or how is she doing? Uh,
- 50:27Speaker 9: we can't say, well, yeah, but.
- 50:29Speaker 3: I already have her permission to deal with them. In fact,
- 50:32Speaker 3: she's wanted it. She's never had anything like this in
- 50:36Speaker 3: her life, and this has really made her nervous and
- 50:42Speaker 3: anxious and uncomfortable because she's trying to think I'm doing
- 50:47Speaker 3: a really good job. I didn't ask for anything. I
- 50:52Speaker 3: just wanted to let them know that I can't drive,
- 50:54Speaker 3: and I have trouble walking, and I can work very
- 50:59Speaker 3: productively from the home office. That I was just giving
- 51:03Speaker 3: them courtesy because they mentioned they might want to bring
- 51:06Speaker 3: us back to an office. And what's really sad about
- 51:10Speaker 3: this the office that she used to work at has
- 51:14Speaker 3: been rented out to another company, so the old office
- 51:19Speaker 3: they don't have. I don't even think they know where
- 51:23Speaker 3: they're going to go. But it would not matter if
- 51:26Speaker 3: it was a few miles. She couldn't drive, and after
- 51:35Speaker 3: watching her, she does pretty good walking. But after the fall,
- 51:41Speaker 3: it just brought to light that there's no way you
- 51:45Speaker 3: can risk being in an office that has stairs or
- 51:49Speaker 3: curbs or any of that stuff. And the last time
- 51:53Speaker 3: they had an office that was on the second floor
- 51:55Speaker 3: and they had to walk. So I don't know, but yeah,
- 52:00Speaker 3: the hip of stuff is fine because she's given permission
- 52:04Speaker 3: and she wants me to talk to him. But this
- 52:08Speaker 3: is not a case where there was an insurance claim
- 52:12Speaker 3: filed or any kind of a claim at all. This
- 52:16Speaker 3: was just merely. She heard them talking about maybe returning
- 52:22Speaker 3: to an office, and she thought she better let them
- 52:25Speaker 3: know early so they don't have to buy equipment and
- 52:28Speaker 3: do stuff to set her up an office or a
- 52:31Speaker 3: desk because she can't do that. She thought she was
- 52:35Speaker 3: doing something great, and she's blown away that this happened.
- 52:39Speaker 3: She can't understand it. And I, on the other hand,
- 52:43Speaker 3: have worked as an electrician, and I've been in unions,
- 52:49Speaker 3: and I've been a shop steward, and I've been the supervisor,
- 52:54Speaker 3: and I've negotiated contracts, I've negotiated our attended arbitrations. I've
- 53:02Speaker 3: owned my own office, I've had employees, so I've been
- 53:06Speaker 3: on all the sides of this, and I've seen a
- 53:10Speaker 3: lot of evil in all that time. So for me,
- 53:15Speaker 3: a lot of it doesn't surprise me. But this surprised
- 53:17Speaker 3: me because they they brag about her so much and
- 53:23Speaker 3: then stab her in the back and tell her your
- 53:27Speaker 3: claims denied, which nobody knows what that means, because she
- 53:30Speaker 3: didn't fell out a claim for anything. She hasn't asked
- 53:34Speaker 3: for anything. And I tried to tell them too. They
- 53:38Speaker 3: didn't know this ever since they started working from home.
- 53:44Speaker 3: The starting time is nine o'clock. Well, she goes to
- 53:49Speaker 3: work at seven point thirty every morning since they started
- 53:55Speaker 3: working from home long before the stroke. And I asked
- 54:00Speaker 3: one time, why are you doing that? So I just
- 54:02Speaker 3: like to check and see if there's anything that needs
- 54:04Speaker 3: my attention, get my day lined out. And I'm thinking, Wow,
- 54:10Speaker 3: what an employee. I mean, I said, wis had you
- 54:12Speaker 3: working for me in my office? So I'm at a loss.
- 54:17Speaker 3: I don't understand the evilness with this. I've never seen
- 54:21Speaker 3: a case because usually people that have these problems are
- 54:25Speaker 3: on disability and they're not trying to work. But she's
- 54:30Speaker 3: trying to work and doing a hell of a job.
- 54:33Speaker 3: They're very happy with her work, and they would have
- 54:37Speaker 3: never known she had a stroke if they didn't start
- 54:41Speaker 3: saying we're going to bring people back to an office.
- 54:43Speaker 3: Maybe so I don't know anything, guys.
- 54:49Speaker 7: Yeah, these people, these people are they're messed up. And
- 54:55Speaker 7: you know what you just said, they wouldn't have even
- 54:57Speaker 7: known that she had a stroke, according to our productivity,
- 55:06Speaker 7: if they hadn't decided to, you know, bring everyone into
- 55:12Speaker 7: the office. That's that's a good little dinger right there.
- 55:16Speaker 7: For a lawyer.
- 55:20Speaker 3: Yeah, they're our producer mentioned that a couple of weeks ago,
- 55:25Speaker 3: and I looked up a special law firm in our
- 55:28Speaker 3: area that covers uh pretty much. I think Houston, Austin,
- 55:34Speaker 3: Dallas maybe, uh, maybe Beaumont, and they specialize in the
- 55:40Speaker 3: a DA South American Disabilities Act stuff. But I, for
- 55:45Speaker 3: the life of me, I cannot imagine a company stupid
- 55:49Speaker 3: enough to tell a stroke patient that you need to
- 55:54Speaker 3: come to work, and knowing that a stroke patient usually
- 55:59Speaker 3: has disabilities and in walking, some of them really bad,
- 56:06Speaker 3: some of them less, and why would you want to
- 56:09Speaker 3: bring them and force that issue. And then on the
- 56:12Speaker 3: other side of that, what kind of company takes an
- 56:17Speaker 3: employee that they have raved about over the years, and
- 56:23Speaker 3: do they want to fire them because they had a stroke.
- 56:27Speaker 3: I mean, there's got to be a special place in
- 56:29Speaker 3: hell for somebody that could do that.
- 56:33Speaker 6: Anything.
- 56:34Speaker 3: Bill Nope. I mean it's frustrating for me. I feel
- 56:42Speaker 3: very helpless because I'm the doctor and I'm part of
- 56:46Speaker 3: the family, and I wish I could do so much more.
- 56:52Speaker 3: And it's very expensive to get attorneys. They want quite
- 56:58Speaker 3: a bit of money just to a zoom uh consultation,
- 57:05Speaker 3: you know that, And I don't know how it works.
- 57:08Speaker 7: If they end up representing you quite Uh, there's there's
- 57:13Speaker 7: a few pro boo in that a da field of law.
- 57:20Speaker 3: Well we will find.
- 57:23Speaker 7: Well because and the problem with that is that they're
- 57:27Speaker 7: just gonna want to sue. They're gonna want to sue
- 57:31Speaker 7: for you know, a certain amount of money. Well, then
- 57:35Speaker 7: you tick off the company and like I, like I've
- 57:39Speaker 7: said before, they're gonna look for one little thing to
- 57:43Speaker 7: be wrong and after that retaliate would be my fear.
- 57:51Speaker 3: Yeah, but see it seems like they're already doing that
- 57:54Speaker 3: by telling her that your claim was denied and she
- 57:58Speaker 3: didn't fill out a claim. That that's like a double
- 58:01Speaker 3: negative of craziness. But I can't figure out if they're
- 58:06Speaker 3: planning on firing her, telling her if you can't get
- 58:11Speaker 3: to work and if there's a chance that you might
- 58:14Speaker 3: fall down, we're going to fire you for that. I mean,
- 58:18Speaker 3: to me, that's absolutely crazy. But I don't know. I've
- 58:22Speaker 3: never run into this before. I've never had a patient
- 58:26Speaker 3: in all my years of doing this stuff that ran
- 58:30Speaker 3: into these kind of problems. Usually they would go get
- 58:34Speaker 3: disability or whatever and not you know, they wouldn't even
- 58:39Speaker 3: want to work. And I said, these people It's funny
- 58:43Speaker 3: that supervisor that wouldn't even take the call is the
- 58:47Speaker 3: one that raved about her the most, and now they're
- 58:50Speaker 3: acting like, we can't help you. Well, we're not asking
- 58:54Speaker 3: for help. All she wanted to do is is keep working.
- 58:58Speaker 3: And all I did, I volunteered. She didn't ask me
- 59:01Speaker 3: to do it. I just wanted to give them an
- 59:04Speaker 3: update so they could think about what if she falls.
- 59:08Speaker 3: You know, that's another thing that she had never told
- 59:11Speaker 3: them that because she didn't think about it. So I'm
- 59:16Speaker 3: just trying to make it easy for everybody that you
- 59:18Speaker 3: can make a good, common sense, decent decision. And I
- 59:23Speaker 3: don't know, I don't know what they're going to do.
- 59:26Speaker 7: So what is it called when you get some kind
- 59:31Speaker 7: of award or whatever to your company? Is it called
- 59:36Speaker 7: not accommodations? But I forget what it's called, you know,
- 59:42Speaker 7: like a write up, you know, employee of the year
- 59:46Speaker 7: or whatever you want to call it. Has she gotten
- 59:49Speaker 7: any of those things?
- 59:51Speaker 10: Oh?
- 59:51Speaker 7: Yeah? And does she have copies of those things?
- 59:56Speaker 3: That I don't know. I'd have to ask her, But
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: I do know that she's been like number one. And
- 1:00:06Speaker 3: it's funny a lot of people go to her for
- 1:00:09Speaker 3: help and she's not even a supervisor, and she didn't
- 1:00:13Speaker 3: want to be a supervisor. She didn't want she dislikes
- 1:00:16Speaker 3: what she does, so I don't know. Well, we're at
- 1:00:20Speaker 3: break time, guys. When we come back, we'll let Bill
- 1:00:23Speaker 3: take off with his weekly topic, and please listen to

- 1:04:08Speaker 3: welcome back to doctor Crooper's Natural Health Towers. We're going
- 1:04:12Speaker 3: to jump right in. Let Bill take off on his
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: weekly topic. Take it away, Bill, Yeah, Well, I was.
- 1:04:23Speaker 8: Thinking about what what to talk about this week, and
- 1:04:28Speaker 8: he kind of came to it from from the other side.
- 1:04:35Speaker 8: But essentially what I'm talking about and certainly was evident tonight,
- 1:04:41Speaker 8: is stress and how how that plays out. I mean,
- 1:04:48Speaker 8: we all talk about stress and all this kind of stuff.
- 1:04:50Speaker 8: We're talking about gttle things. One of the things that
- 1:04:56Speaker 8: we watched for with people, or we used to watch
- 1:05:01Speaker 8: for it with people when they would come into an office.
- 1:05:03Speaker 9: With are are they do they grind their teeth?
- 1:05:09Speaker 7: You know?
- 1:05:10Speaker 8: Are they clenching their jaw? This is of course not
- 1:05:15Speaker 8: real healthy for any part of your devil work, whether
- 1:05:20Speaker 8: it's natural or or implants or or bridges or whatever.
- 1:05:25Speaker 8: Grinding your teeth is has all kinds of negatives of
- 1:05:30Speaker 8: that can come from that. And uh, again, as it's
- 1:05:34Speaker 8: primarily a symptom of stress. Well, thinking about stress, they're
- 1:05:41Speaker 8: essentially two kinds, and they're they're frequently blended. I don't
- 1:05:45Speaker 8: find them being separate. But you know, in physical stress
- 1:05:53Speaker 8: and stress that comes from from an illness or an injury,
- 1:05:58Speaker 8: or either either one of those will cause a disruption
- 1:06:02Speaker 8: in a lifestyle, depending on the severity of the injury.
- 1:06:08Speaker 8: Causes a lot of anxiety, causes a lot of what
- 1:06:12Speaker 8: what am I going to do? Is like your your
- 1:06:15Speaker 8: patient who had an injury, uh, cerebral injury, and it
- 1:06:22Speaker 8: made a tremendous difference in what her outlook uh the
- 1:06:28Speaker 8: rest of her life is how does how does that deal?
- 1:06:30Speaker 8: Is that that that's a little stressful. The other the
- 1:06:33Speaker 8: other kind of stressor that we encounter is as a
- 1:06:37Speaker 8: psycho emotional stressor that when bad things happen not necessarily
- 1:06:46Speaker 8: to you, but bad things that happen that are not
- 1:06:50Speaker 8: uh physically injurious or health health illness or healthcare kind
- 1:06:57Speaker 8: of stuff. But yeah, you know, things in her traumatic
- 1:07:00Speaker 8: old of things in our environmental And again I'm using
- 1:07:04Speaker 8: the term environmental to describe something that happens to personally,
- 1:07:10Speaker 8: your own personal environment or your family environment. When something
- 1:07:14Speaker 8: bad happens as you're experiencing with your with your relative,
- 1:07:19Speaker 8: you're feeling a tremendous amount of stress because of something
- 1:07:24Speaker 8: that didn't really happen to you, but happened to somebody
- 1:07:28Speaker 8: that was close to you? Is that still stressful? And
- 1:07:31Speaker 8: how does and I think the point of will is
- 1:07:34Speaker 8: is how does that? How does that play out? I
- 1:07:36Speaker 8: know Susan's talk about this. I'm certainly experienced that, but
- 1:07:41Speaker 8: a lot of times we're not really aware of how
- 1:07:45Speaker 8: intense the stress has become. They's built up gradually over
- 1:07:50Speaker 8: over weeks, months, sometimes years, bad relationships which can be
- 1:07:59Speaker 8: difficult to get out of for all kinds of reasons.
- 1:08:03Speaker 8: People stay in them for a long long time that
- 1:08:06Speaker 8: they're essentially very destructive, and then personally to their personality,
- 1:08:11Speaker 8: to their their psyche and their outlook. It's traumatic. And
- 1:08:15Speaker 8: remember that the German word for dream is trauma, so
- 1:08:22Speaker 8: it's it's a different kind of reality. When something chromatic
- 1:08:26Speaker 8: happens to us, it's a different one of the different
- 1:08:29Speaker 8: realities that we all experienced. But when the stress it
- 1:08:34Speaker 8: builds up and we're really not aware of it, one
- 1:08:39Speaker 8: of the you know, we begin to get to the
- 1:08:41Speaker 8: point where physiologically we can we can feel it. We
- 1:08:45Speaker 8: feel a lot of tension on our in our chest,
- 1:08:47Speaker 8: our breathing is it becomes distorted. You know, We've known
- 1:08:51Speaker 8: for many many years. It stress that goes on trees.
- 1:08:56Speaker 8: It can cause heart attacks, because strokes can cause all
- 1:08:59Speaker 8: kinds of very serious physiological results. And how do we
- 1:09:06Speaker 8: how do we become aware of our own stress levels
- 1:09:11Speaker 8: if if they haven't been very abrupt or very severe
- 1:09:15Speaker 8: over but have built up over a long period of time. Well,
- 1:09:20Speaker 8: one of the primary symptoms of stress is physical exhaustion.
- 1:09:27Speaker 8: We're too tired to do anything. We don't have energy
- 1:09:31Speaker 8: to take a walk. All we want to do is nothing.
- 1:09:34Speaker 8: All we want to do is kind of sit and
- 1:09:37Speaker 8: kind of hopefully regenerate. But this is tremendous loss of energy,
- 1:09:43Speaker 8: usually indicator of a fairly substantial stress level. And again
- 1:09:48Speaker 8: that that loss of energy can manifest itself and in
- 1:09:53Speaker 8: a physical way. We don't want to go into where
- 1:09:56Speaker 8: it takes. It takes too much effort to walk from
- 1:09:59Speaker 8: one end to the house to the other. It wears
- 1:10:02Speaker 8: us out. To do the dishes, I don't know does
- 1:10:04Speaker 8: anybody do dishes anymore? Do they all put them in
- 1:10:07Speaker 8: a dishwasher? To do housework, to do the most ordinary
- 1:10:13Speaker 8: things of our lives, we find that it is exhausting.
- 1:10:18Speaker 8: We just we you know, we do one or two
- 1:10:19Speaker 8: things and that's basically it for the day. Okay, it
- 1:10:22Speaker 8: means stress levels pretty high tyco emotionally, the stress kind
- 1:10:30Speaker 8: of plays into depending upon the severity. Does it effect
- 1:10:36Speaker 8: our memory? Does it affect our ability to communicate? Does
- 1:10:39Speaker 8: it affect our ability to find some substantive enjoyment in
- 1:10:45Speaker 8: our existence? Again, and this can all be so gradually.
- 1:10:49Speaker 8: If it occurs over a year or two years, it's
- 1:10:53Speaker 8: going to be more difficult to identify them. The people
- 1:10:58Speaker 8: call it exhaustion, will call it burnout. To me, those
- 1:11:01Speaker 8: are two slightly different things falling under the general category
- 1:11:06Speaker 8: of the key stress will stress. Stress requires a tremendous
- 1:11:13Speaker 8: amount of energy. It takes a huge amount of energy
- 1:11:16Speaker 8: to just survive being stressed out, as we used to say,
- 1:11:22Speaker 8: and not being always aware of what causes that stress,
- 1:11:30Speaker 8: it doesn't really help things. So how do we how
- 1:11:33Speaker 8: do we begin to a understand that we're dealing with
- 1:11:36Speaker 8: a with a an amount of stress? And once again
- 1:11:40Speaker 8: is as you you talk about from your nutritional point
- 1:11:44Speaker 8: of view, everybody, everybody responds a little differently. Everybody is
- 1:11:48Speaker 8: a little unique, everybody has their own way of dealing
- 1:11:51Speaker 8: with issues. And so what what might be very stressful
- 1:11:57Speaker 8: for me, may not be stressful at all for you.
- 1:12:00Speaker 8: It just depends on our experience, on what we grew
- 1:12:03Speaker 8: up with and how we look at things, how we
- 1:12:05Speaker 8: live in our lives. But to identify that we're dealing
- 1:12:09Speaker 8: with stress is often eighty percent of the battle. It's
- 1:12:16Speaker 8: so gradual and insidious that we don't often no one
- 1:12:19Speaker 8: except that we're just off. We don't want to do
- 1:12:22Speaker 8: stuff when it's not our usual self. How do we
- 1:12:27Speaker 8: begin to be able to backtrack and try and figure
- 1:12:32Speaker 8: out what's causing that? Why are we stressed? What basically
- 1:12:38Speaker 8: stress comes from a sense of powerlessness. Something has happened
- 1:12:43Speaker 8: to us. We're overwhelmed, We can't we're out of control.
- 1:12:47Speaker 8: We have no control over what that situation is or was.
- 1:12:53Speaker 8: If we can PenPoint.
- 1:12:56Speaker 7: What that.
- 1:13:00Speaker 8: Stress or is, if it's a personal relationship, then that
- 1:13:05Speaker 8: gives us something to work with. If it's a personal relationship,
- 1:13:09Speaker 8: maybe we need to end that relationship. What's more important?
- 1:13:15Speaker 8: Is it more important for us to continue in a
- 1:13:18Speaker 8: really disruptive outlook or do we begin to take a
- 1:13:24Speaker 8: sense of control back and say no, I don't need
- 1:13:28Speaker 8: to do this. I mean, it doesn't have to be
- 1:13:32Speaker 8: an entire relationship that is eliminated or changed. I think
- 1:13:36Speaker 8: that in every relationship there are things that do we
- 1:13:41Speaker 8: like very much about another person. There are perhaps a
- 1:13:44Speaker 8: few things that we really don't like about that person. Well,
- 1:13:50Speaker 8: is a relationship worth ending because of the things that
- 1:13:54Speaker 8: we disagree about? Sometimes it is. Sometimes the disagreements are
- 1:13:59Speaker 8: so profound. If there's no saving, there's no salvation to
- 1:14:04Speaker 8: the relationship, there's no saving the relationship. That's one of
- 1:14:07Speaker 8: the ways that we handle stressors. Another way is to
- 1:14:12Speaker 8: a great believer in denial. It's just you know, and
- 1:14:16Speaker 8: I know I've talked to this. I had a friend
- 1:14:19Speaker 8: a number of years ago. He's gone now, but there
- 1:14:21Speaker 8: were a couple of things that we were very deeply
- 1:14:25Speaker 8: disagree about, deeply disagree about it, and we've learned simply
- 1:14:35Speaker 8: not talk about those. So denial is not always a
- 1:14:40Speaker 8: bad thing. If in this case, a relationship had so
- 1:14:43Speaker 8: much more to offer than to end, and over a
- 1:14:46Speaker 8: substantial disagreement about something that nobody's going to change your
- 1:14:50Speaker 8: mind anyway. So what do you want to do? You
- 1:14:54Speaker 8: want to end your relationship, you want to continue being
- 1:14:56Speaker 8: friends that continue this friendship, and again that's it. But
- 1:15:01Speaker 8: it comes back that I've as I said, to take
- 1:15:05Speaker 8: control and not be so reactive to a situation with
- 1:15:11Speaker 8: a physical injury as as your patient. There's there's a
- 1:15:21Speaker 8: chance that things may not change. There's always no matter
- 1:15:25Speaker 8: what that injury is, what the illness is that it
- 1:15:28Speaker 8: may have been, it may be so severe that there's
- 1:15:33Speaker 8: no there's no option. I'm stuck with this, you know,
- 1:15:38Speaker 8: I've I've lost a limb in a car accident. I
- 1:15:43Speaker 8: can't have it grow back by by wishing it. What
- 1:15:47Speaker 8: am I going to do? What am I going to do?
- 1:15:49Speaker 8: My choices are if it's sage enough to or to
- 1:15:53Speaker 8: continue living, or and if so, okay, what what do
- 1:15:57Speaker 8: I need to do? Or if I don't want to
- 1:15:59Speaker 8: continue living.
- 1:16:00Speaker 3: What do I need to do?
- 1:16:02Speaker 8: But it's it's getting rid of that feeling of being overwhelmed,
- 1:16:06Speaker 8: of not having any sense of control over what's happening
- 1:16:09Speaker 8: to us or how we're reacting to things. It's part
- 1:16:12Speaker 8: of the very difficult part of being stressed out. And
- 1:16:18Speaker 8: I think that as having watched a lot of people
- 1:16:22Speaker 8: over the years try and deal with this, that they're
- 1:16:25Speaker 8: there is often a reluctance to do to do the
- 1:16:29Speaker 8: hard headwork here and figure out really what's the stress
- 1:16:32Speaker 8: or what is causing all of this. You know, if
- 1:16:35Speaker 8: it's a spouse and there's there doesn't seem to be
- 1:16:39Speaker 8: any indication that there's that the relationship or their perspectives
- 1:16:43Speaker 8: are going to change. Yeah they have, they don't want
- 1:16:48Speaker 8: to put up with it rather than they go through
- 1:16:50Speaker 8: all the disruption of the split up. You're okay, that's
- 1:16:54Speaker 8: a choice, but but at least you've made a choice
- 1:16:56Speaker 8: about that. And and I think by having made that decision,
- 1:17:00Speaker 8: you've created at least the impression of a sense of
- 1:17:05Speaker 8: self control again, of having made a choice to stay
- 1:17:09Speaker 8: in an unpleasant relationship because the alternatives are more unpleasant.
- 1:17:18Speaker 8: It's a can't a processes of not responding so emotionally
- 1:17:24Speaker 8: to situations and realizing that, you know, kind of as
- 1:17:30Speaker 8: you were indicating den it was, it's up to you.
- 1:17:35Speaker 8: You know, what do we do here? What we how
- 1:17:37Speaker 8: do we deal with this? How am I going to
- 1:17:39Speaker 8: deal with this? Because ultimately how I deal with it
- 1:17:42Speaker 8: is my choice. I can get all kinds of advice
- 1:17:45Speaker 8: about stuff, but nobody really understands my situation as much
- 1:17:51Speaker 8: as I do, unless they've known me all their life,
- 1:17:53Speaker 8: Unless they were unless they were me and have had
- 1:17:57Speaker 8: that experiential basis or my outlook. So one of the
- 1:18:03Speaker 8: things about offering advice is is that the advisor needs
- 1:18:06Speaker 8: to be perfectly comfortable with having his advice not taken.
- 1:18:12Speaker 8: You know, we're, as therapist says, as chiropractors were given
- 1:18:17Speaker 8: so much information, but only so much. We're not given everything,
- 1:18:23Speaker 8: and it takes a long time to fill out the
- 1:18:26Speaker 8: staving at points. Well, yeah, we're trained how to do that,
- 1:18:29Speaker 8: and we hopefully do it occasionally, but ultimately it's the
- 1:18:34Speaker 8: individual's responsibility to decide, Okay, this is where I am,
- 1:18:40Speaker 8: these are my options, this is what I'm going to do?
- 1:18:43Speaker 8: How do I get my control back? And so the
- 1:18:45Speaker 8: response to being stressed is to take take your life back,
- 1:18:51Speaker 8: take your control back. It wasn't that it was taken
- 1:18:56Speaker 8: from us. We just kind of gave it up gradually.
- 1:18:58Speaker 8: We may not even have known that we were giving
- 1:19:00Speaker 8: it up, but we lost it. My god, it's mine.
- 1:19:06Speaker 8: I can take it back if I want to take
- 1:19:09Speaker 8: a little work, But what are my options? And are
- 1:19:13Speaker 8: my options things that I can live with? Am I
- 1:19:16Speaker 8: going to be comfortable? So anyway, that kind of gets
- 1:19:20Speaker 8: into fatigue and emotional and physical fatigue as resulting from stress.
- 1:19:27Speaker 8: So stress is kind of a gateway what I call
- 1:19:29Speaker 8: a gateway disorder. It's kind of like the pressure is
- 1:19:33Speaker 8: the gateway disorder for anxiety, and both of those are
- 1:19:37Speaker 8: gateway disorders for perhaps more substantial psychological disorders pronoia or
- 1:19:45Speaker 8: any of that group. One thing leads to another and
- 1:19:50Speaker 8: if we can can short stop it, we save ourselves
- 1:19:54Speaker 8: a lot of grief. But as my dad used to
- 1:19:57Speaker 8: say in at Easy the game, uh, which comes from
- 1:20:01Speaker 8: the old Shiver McGee and mulley radio shows, and Mulley
- 1:20:05Speaker 8: used to tell, oh, shiver it yep a eight easy McGee,
- 1:20:10Speaker 8: get on with it. Hey, there you go.
- 1:20:15Speaker 3: Well it's always very interesting, good stuff. I think that's
- 1:20:19Speaker 3: a good goal to get your life back and not
- 1:20:22Speaker 3: let other people control things. Pretty interesting, cisy anything.
- 1:20:32Speaker 7: Yeah, uh, I've had to do that quite a few
- 1:20:36Speaker 7: times in my life. I think the first thing is
- 1:20:40Speaker 7: recognizing what exactly it is, and then from there you
- 1:20:46Speaker 7: can make decisions and sometimes they're they seem hard at
- 1:20:54Speaker 7: the time, and then time shows whether you were right
- 1:21:01Speaker 7: or whether you were wrong in your decision. M hm.
- 1:21:08Speaker 8: You know, it's interesting you put it that way because
- 1:21:10Speaker 8: I've I've said for many years and I certainly never
- 1:21:15Speaker 8: practiced this a whole lot. But I don't think there
- 1:21:18Speaker 8: that there are wrong decisions. I think they are learning opportunities,
- 1:21:23Speaker 8: and there when we make when we make bad choices
- 1:21:26Speaker 8: about this, when we make wrong decisions, I think it's
- 1:21:29Speaker 8: a chance to say, well, oh that wasn't a good idea,
- 1:21:31Speaker 8: Let's try something else right, and and to move on.
- 1:21:36Speaker 8: I I you know, it's too easy to get stuck
- 1:21:38Speaker 8: in having screwed up, and a lot of folks do.
- 1:21:42Speaker 8: There's certainly been times in my life and I've just
- 1:21:44Speaker 8: kind of kind of relished having screwed up. It's convinced
- 1:21:49Speaker 8: me that I'm still human. But it's not real productive,
- 1:21:53Speaker 8: you know, And how do we how do we take
- 1:21:58Speaker 8: take an experience it didn't work on, how do we
- 1:22:00Speaker 8: turn that around into something positive and say, well, I
- 1:22:03Speaker 8: ain't going there again. It's an important that's a good point.
- 1:22:07Speaker 8: I think that you you know, you kind of drifted
- 1:22:10Speaker 8: into that sideways, but it's it's an important thing to
- 1:22:14Speaker 8: understand that if you know, if we make a decision
- 1:22:17Speaker 8: it isn't working out right, we don't have to stay there,
- 1:22:21Speaker 8: and we can make another one. We can screw it
- 1:22:23Speaker 8: up worse, we can do all kinds of things. But
- 1:22:26Speaker 8: we were not stuck, and we can. I think we've
- 1:22:31Speaker 8: all we've all got the capability to move ahead. And
- 1:22:38Speaker 8: that's again a very individualistic process, but it's it's one
- 1:22:44Speaker 8: that I don't think we should ever forget. We can,
- 1:22:47Speaker 8: we can make changes and we can we can't move on.
- 1:22:51Speaker 8: We can become complete.
- 1:22:55Speaker 7: Makes me think about my mother. She had this saying,
- 1:23:03Speaker 7: amongst many that was, well, let me back up, preface
- 1:23:10Speaker 7: it with I know I do I overthink things, yes,
- 1:23:16Speaker 7: and you know sometimes they can, they can get you
- 1:23:20Speaker 7: in trouble. But my mother's saying was, keep keep it simple, stupid.
- 1:23:27Speaker 8: Yep, yep, the old kiss routine. Keep it simple, stupid.
- 1:23:35Speaker 3: Can you imagine being in the same room with Susie
- 1:23:39Speaker 3: and her mom, h I would enjoy that, it would
- 1:23:46Speaker 3: be it would be interesting.
- 1:23:49Speaker 7: Later later in life we could we could butt heads. Uh,
- 1:23:55Speaker 7: I would. I wouldn't say later in life. I'd say
- 1:23:58Speaker 7: probably about forties.
- 1:24:00Speaker 3: I was like years old.
- 1:24:03Speaker 7: No, no, I was a perfect little child. I was
- 1:24:05Speaker 7: told that I like to touch things in the store,
- 1:24:14Speaker 7: and I got my little hands spanked a few times,
- 1:24:17Speaker 7: so touch that. And so my mother would tell the
- 1:24:21Speaker 7: story where I would walk up to something and I
- 1:24:23Speaker 7: would hold my finger real close up to my side
- 1:24:26Speaker 7: and I would point and I would say, oh pretty,
- 1:24:29Speaker 7: and then I would say, don't touch, Snoozie, don't touch.
- 1:24:33Speaker 7: So I'd be telling myself, but I would I don't know,
- 1:24:37Speaker 7: probably somewhere between thirty five and I wasn't even forty yet.
- 1:24:43Speaker 7: Around thirty five thirty six, we hadn't moved down here,
- 1:24:47Speaker 7: and you know, I wanted to raise my kids my way.
- 1:24:53Speaker 7: And she had come down here to visit from Dallas,
- 1:24:58Speaker 7: Carrollton actually, and so we went to go pick up
- 1:25:03Speaker 7: the kids from school. It was like a Friday, and
- 1:25:06Speaker 7: they knew she was coming, and they had this thing,
- 1:25:12Speaker 7: you know, if we act up, she's not gonna do
- 1:25:16Speaker 7: anything in front of Grandma Pete ha ha, hide and watch.
- 1:25:24Speaker 7: And so I'm in my mother's car, driving in her
- 1:25:26Speaker 7: little convertible, and so we're heading to our house and
- 1:25:34Speaker 7: they start arguing in the backyard. I mean the back seat.
- 1:25:37Speaker 7: I've got a sixth grader. Now I've got a fifth
- 1:25:41Speaker 7: grader and a sophomore, and I tell him, y'all cut
- 1:25:46Speaker 7: it out, and I look in the rearview mirror to
- 1:25:50Speaker 7: give them the Mama look, because I know they know
- 1:25:54Speaker 7: when I get quiet when I'm driving, look in the
- 1:25:57Speaker 7: rear view maryor to see my face. Well then my
- 1:26:00Speaker 7: mother tells me, Siddy, they're just being kids. You don't
- 1:26:06Speaker 7: need to get onto them. And I remember saying, they're
- 1:26:13Speaker 7: my kids, I will raise them. Well, I just don't
- 1:26:18Speaker 7: think that you need to be talking to them like that.
- 1:26:22Speaker 7: And I said, well, I don't think you need to
- 1:26:23Speaker 7: be talking to me like this and telling me how
- 1:26:26Speaker 7: to be a mother. And she said, well, let me
- 1:26:30Speaker 7: out of the car and we're on the highway. Well
- 1:26:33Speaker 7: it's a rural highway, too lane. I pulled her car
- 1:26:36Speaker 7: over to the side of the road and said get out.
- 1:26:44Speaker 7: Well she didn't, and I didn't make her. But what
- 1:26:49Speaker 7: was funny was that, in a roundabout way, this straightened
- 1:26:54Speaker 7: my kids up and they were sitting up straight, bug eyed, going,
- 1:26:59Speaker 7: oh my gosh. Grandma Peggy said let me out, and
- 1:27:06Speaker 7: Mama pulled over to let her out. So then we
- 1:27:12Speaker 7: all laugh. But that's who raised me. Now, y'all got
- 1:27:18Speaker 7: a little hint on it.
- 1:27:21Speaker 3: That's that doesn't even surprise me. That doesn't even surprise me.
- 1:27:30Speaker 3: I bet you too, were you were really a pair.
- 1:27:36Speaker 8: I don't think it matters how old we are, but
- 1:27:41Speaker 8: our parents are still learning how to be parents.
- 1:27:46Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true.
- 1:27:46Speaker 8: I don't think the process ever stops. You know, it
- 1:27:49Speaker 8: don't matter one hundred you're still trying to figure it out.
- 1:27:54Speaker 7: Well, yeah, you're you change. Yep, you know, I'm not.
- 1:28:03Speaker 7: I'm not eight years old anymore. I'm thirty five or
- 1:28:06Speaker 7: thirty six. I've got my own kids that are older
- 1:28:10Speaker 7: than that, so you have to it's a venutia. It's
- 1:28:22Speaker 7: like I'm the daughter, she's the mother. I've got kids,
- 1:28:27Speaker 7: but don't tell me how to raise my kids, and
- 1:28:29Speaker 7: don't talk to me like I'm your daughter and I
- 1:28:34Speaker 7: shouldn't be talking to my mother like that. So it's
- 1:28:38Speaker 7: an interesting it's an interesting phenomenon.
- 1:28:45Speaker 3: It would have made for a good TV show.
- 1:28:50Speaker 7: Oh no, they wouldn't have bear that.
- 1:28:54Speaker 3: I was watching the other day Sandford and Son. They
- 1:28:59Speaker 3: were showing some clips and the stuff they did back
- 1:29:04Speaker 3: then they wouldn't allow him to do today. I'm sure
- 1:29:06Speaker 3: the lefties would have ruined it. But it was funny stuff.
- 1:29:11Speaker 3: Married with children, Sandford.
- 1:29:13Speaker 8: And son and.
- 1:29:17Speaker 7: All in the family.
- 1:29:19Speaker 3: Yeah, they had never made it today, but they were
- 1:29:22Speaker 3: so funny. And you look back at Fred Sandford. I
- 1:29:26Speaker 3: remember he was talking to that lady. I don't know
- 1:29:30Speaker 3: her name, but he didn't like her, and she was
- 1:29:33Speaker 3: giving him a hard time and he said, I'm about
- 1:29:36Speaker 3: to give you exorcism and she said, you silly old man,
- 1:29:41Speaker 3: what are you talking about. He said, I'm about to
- 1:29:44Speaker 3: beat the devil out of you. They would have never
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: talked that way, and the lefties would have went crazy,
- 1:29:53Speaker 3: especially Archie Bunker, Oh my god, calling his son in
- 1:29:59Speaker 3: law meeting.
- 1:30:01Speaker 7: He still is a meathead.
- 1:30:04Speaker 3: And and Al Bundy. Al Bundy told his kids one
- 1:30:09Speaker 3: time he's getting up to go fishing, and he said,
- 1:30:14Speaker 3: when your mother wakes up, and you know she will
- 1:30:18Speaker 3: because she knows I hate that good stuff. All right, Well,
- 1:30:26Speaker 3: we're at break time, guys. When we come back, we'll
- 1:30:28Speaker 3: have Susie doing her recipe stuff. Hopefully it's got booze.

- 1:35:06Speaker 7: grandmother cut out, and I think it's set from the
- 1:35:10Speaker 7: Dallas Morning News nineteen sixty five. Rumballs. We'll talk about
- 1:35:18Speaker 7: that when it gets closer to Christmas. That's a Christmas
- 1:35:20Speaker 7: tradition around here. So thinking about this, and you said,
- 1:35:25Speaker 7: hopefully it has alcohol in it, there is rum in rumballs.
- 1:35:34Speaker 7: You could use extract, but we never did. You know,
- 1:35:39Speaker 7: if you want it to be kid friendly, you could
- 1:35:43Speaker 7: use extract, but when you heat it, you're going to
- 1:35:47Speaker 7: cook off the alcohol. So in this case you're not
- 1:35:50Speaker 7: cooking anything, so that would probably be like an adult treat,
- 1:35:59Speaker 7: not for kids.
- 1:36:00Speaker 8: So this is I think to give.
- 1:36:04Speaker 7: Proper credit because I think she's worth tons of money
- 1:36:09Speaker 7: and she has probably more lawyers than me. Pioneer woman
- 1:36:14Speaker 7: recipe and so pretty simple. A cup of pecans and
- 1:36:23Speaker 7: chopped and then one cup of Graham cracker crumbs, and
- 1:36:29Speaker 7: I've gotten that organic at natural grocers. I think Annie's
- 1:36:38Speaker 7: has a brand. You have to be careful with Andy's,
- 1:36:42Speaker 7: especially in their frozen meals. They'll have canola oil, but
- 1:36:46Speaker 7: so far they're graham crackers. My husband likes and we
- 1:36:53Speaker 7: keep them on hand. So that's why this is so
- 1:36:56Speaker 7: much like a rumball, but it's not cooked. Half a
- 1:37:02Speaker 7: cup of powdered sugar. Now you can get organic powdered sugar.
- 1:37:09Speaker 7: To me, sugar is sugar, and I don't I don't
- 1:37:12Speaker 7: want it, I don't need it. You could use half
- 1:37:18Speaker 7: a cup, maybe a little bit more of ayu lo's.
- 1:37:21Speaker 7: I know we've talked about this a few weeks ago.
- 1:37:25Speaker 7: I don't see the harm in it being derived from
- 1:37:29Speaker 7: figs and kiwi and I forget the other fruits. But
- 1:37:37Speaker 7: this wouldn't be a DOC friendly recipe if you used
- 1:37:41Speaker 7: half a cup of powdered monk fruit. But organic powdered
- 1:37:48Speaker 7: sugars out there for folks that don't have an issue,
- 1:37:52Speaker 7: and it's a half a cup, so half a cup
- 1:37:54Speaker 7: of unsweetened cocoa. I tend to go with I tend
- 1:38:00Speaker 7: to I always go with the organic. I never go
- 1:38:03Speaker 7: with Hershey, I don't like the company, their policies, their politics,
- 1:38:08Speaker 7: or the ingredients that they expose us to. Half a
- 1:38:14Speaker 7: cup of unsalted butter, just softened you don't want to
- 1:38:17Speaker 7: melt it, and a quarter of a cup of maple syrup,
- 1:38:22Speaker 7: a teaspoon of vanilla, quarter teaspoon of salt, and then
- 1:38:27Speaker 7: you'll need a cup of semi sweet chocolate chips. I
- 1:38:34Speaker 7: like to use lily. There's you know, some other good
- 1:38:38Speaker 7: ones out there that use cane sugar and non gmo
- 1:38:42Speaker 7: and then just a little extra chopped pecans for garnish
- 1:38:47Speaker 7: if you wanted to do that. So so basically you're
- 1:38:53Speaker 7: mixing everything together. Well, you want you want to whisk
- 1:39:00Speaker 7: together your your chopped pecans and your grain cracker crumbs,
- 1:39:04Speaker 7: powdered sugar and cocoa pattern and salt, and then just
- 1:39:12Speaker 7: make sure you've got that all put together. It says
- 1:39:15Speaker 7: a separate bowl. I see no reason for that. Your butter,
- 1:39:21Speaker 7: your maple syrup, and your vanilla, and of course it
- 1:39:24Speaker 7: says you know, then you combine these. You can use
- 1:39:28Speaker 7: a wooden spoon, a hand mixer. I think it's just
- 1:39:32Speaker 7: gonna get clocked in the in the beaters. Just use
- 1:39:36Speaker 7: a wooden spoon or spatula. So then you're going to
- 1:39:47Speaker 7: uh mix this. It's gonna until it's combined well, and
- 1:39:54Speaker 7: it should be uh really, it should be thick and
- 1:39:57Speaker 7: just slightly sticky if it feels too dry, you know,
- 1:40:01Speaker 7: add you know a little more maple syrup a teaspoon
- 1:40:06Speaker 7: or half a teaspoon at a time until you get
- 1:40:08Speaker 7: it to the consistency that you won't and then you're
- 1:40:13Speaker 7: going to place this in the fridge for like thirty minutes.
- 1:40:19Speaker 7: Just cover it with some plastic wrap and it helps
- 1:40:23Speaker 7: it to firm up, because then you're gonna make you're
- 1:40:27Speaker 7: gonna make the balls. Take it out of the fridge
- 1:40:31Speaker 7: and you can use your hands. You can use a scoop.
- 1:40:38Speaker 7: A scoop that holds about a tablespoon would be perfect.
- 1:40:42Speaker 7: And then you're just gonna roll these little balls, set
- 1:40:45Speaker 7: them aside, you know, on a parchment paper. Then after
- 1:40:52Speaker 7: you get all of those done, you're gonna want to
- 1:40:58Speaker 7: and just so you know, you're gonna end up with
- 1:41:00Speaker 7: about twenty or twenty five of these. Now, let me
- 1:41:02Speaker 7: back up. If you did want to add the run
- 1:41:07Speaker 7: before you added more or additional maple syrup, would be
- 1:41:13Speaker 7: the time, because you don't want this to be too thin.
- 1:41:18Speaker 7: And that's just an option. I'm going out there. It's
- 1:41:21Speaker 7: kind of fine for the holidays, and so you're going
- 1:41:30Speaker 7: to put these little balls in the refrigerator, So put
- 1:41:33Speaker 7: them on a cookie sheet with your your parchment paper.
- 1:41:38Speaker 7: Then you're going to and here's one of the things
- 1:41:43Speaker 7: we don't like number one. We don't like buying good,
- 1:41:47Speaker 7: expensive chocolate chips, and you could use dark chocolate that's
- 1:41:55Speaker 7: even healthier for you. But this recipe says has the
- 1:42:00Speaker 7: nerve to say, you know, put your expensive chocolate, healthy
- 1:42:06Speaker 7: chocolate in the microwave to melt it. It's you can
- 1:42:10Speaker 7: take a saucepan and put water in it and then
- 1:42:16Speaker 7: put a glass bowl. If you have a double boiler,
- 1:42:18Speaker 7: go for it. I've never bought one because I don't
- 1:42:21Speaker 7: see I don't have the need. Stained steel saucepan, a
- 1:42:28Speaker 7: glass bowl that fits over the over it nicely, like
- 1:42:36Speaker 7: on the edge. You'll want it to sink down in.
- 1:42:39Speaker 7: You don't want it to get you know, steam in there,
- 1:42:42Speaker 7: which adds moisture. And have the water just touch the
- 1:42:47Speaker 7: bottom of your boat and put your chocolate chips in there,
- 1:42:53Speaker 7: whichever you want, milk, chocolate or dark. Let that melt.
- 1:43:00Speaker 7: By the time that's done, it's not gonna take thirty
- 1:43:02Speaker 7: minutes to melt, but about fifteen minutes through. Your little
- 1:43:09Speaker 7: pecan balls sitting in the fridge, you could start to
- 1:43:13Speaker 7: start your chocolate. So pull those out of the fridge,
- 1:43:19Speaker 7: I say, stick a toothpick in them, and then you
- 1:43:22Speaker 7: can kind of roll them around in that chocolate and
- 1:43:25Speaker 7: then put it back onto your parchment paper if you want,
- 1:43:29Speaker 7: you could put like it suggests, some additional chopped pecans
- 1:43:37Speaker 7: while that chocolate is still wet, or more and more
- 1:43:44Speaker 7: companies are coming out with natural, naturally colored sprinkles. You know,
- 1:43:52Speaker 7: you could do that instead of pecans, you could do coconut.
- 1:43:57Speaker 7: So there's variations to what you could do with this recipe.
- 1:44:01Speaker 7: And like I said, well, no, I didn't say that.
- 1:44:10Speaker 7: I'm going to say that. Now what I do with
- 1:44:12Speaker 7: the recipes is I put them at a rumble which
- 1:44:17Speaker 7: is doctor d. R. Krupa's Natural Health Hours. By the way,
- 1:44:22Speaker 7: go over there and give it a like. It would
- 1:44:26Speaker 7: greatly appreciate it. It grows the channel and helps with
- 1:44:31Speaker 7: the algorithm so that more people see this and you
- 1:44:37Speaker 7: can come back and if you have subscribed, which is free,
- 1:44:42Speaker 7: there's no charge to that, and find our recipes over
- 1:44:47Speaker 7: the last several months. So that's it. It's all about.
- 1:44:53Speaker 3: Well, yeah, now that you made me feel bad for
- 1:44:55Speaker 3: drinking as a kid. You know, it's funny. All of Europe,
- 1:45:04Speaker 3: everybody drinks, They drink wine at all the meals and
- 1:45:07Speaker 3: nobody thinks about that. But in this country, for some reason,
- 1:45:12Speaker 3: we decided all that was bad, and I think that's
- 1:45:16Speaker 3: why they had a lot of problems with people drinking,
- 1:45:18Speaker 3: because you made it something terrible, so people started doing
- 1:45:22Speaker 3: it because it was treated like it was bad and
- 1:45:26Speaker 3: then they had to sneak it. But in Europe, I
- 1:45:29Speaker 3: didn't see any of that. Everybody drank wine, and I'm
- 1:45:31Speaker 3: not much of a wine person.
- 1:45:33Speaker 8: But they.
- 1:45:36Speaker 3: All drank things like in I think it was Greece.
- 1:45:40Speaker 3: Where is it uzzo? It's like a little shot, tastes
- 1:45:44Speaker 3: like licorice a little bit, but everybody had something they drink.
- 1:45:49Speaker 8: What did you say, No, anis is made from Anish? Yeah.
- 1:46:01Speaker 7: German kids drank beer when we lived over there.
- 1:46:05Speaker 5: Yeah, you know.
- 1:46:05Speaker 3: Well, part of my family was German and part of
- 1:46:09Speaker 3: it was Scottish and Irish and all that. And I
- 1:46:14Speaker 3: remember as a kid they had this ceramic cag and
- 1:46:19Speaker 3: they made beer ever since I was a little kid,
- 1:46:23Speaker 3: and we always were giving little tastes of stuff growing up,
- 1:46:27Speaker 3: so it didn't didn't think much about it. My grandfather's
- 1:46:31Speaker 3: side of the family I think was from Scotland, because
- 1:46:35Speaker 3: I remember my mom telling me a whole bunch of
- 1:46:38Speaker 3: Scottish families would go visit down in Van Buren, Missouri,
- 1:46:43Speaker 3: where they grew up. So I guess because his uh,
- 1:46:48Speaker 3: his name was Hill, so I guess that's Scottish. I
- 1:46:51Speaker 3: don't know, but everybody was used to drinking and we
- 1:46:56Speaker 3: didn't turn out too screwed up. I think everybody in
- 1:47:02Speaker 3: those days. Everybody smoked in the house, so you breathe
- 1:47:07Speaker 3: the cigarette smoke. You started out drinking early and we
- 1:47:13Speaker 3: all survived. We drink out of the water hose. Oh
- 1:47:17Speaker 3: my god, you did that today, you'd probably die in
- 1:47:20Speaker 3: the yard. I still think every time they I remember
- 1:47:26Speaker 3: that letter telling me that don't drink the water, but
- 1:47:29Speaker 3: we're building you anyway, terrible.
- 1:47:33Speaker 8: Don't drink the water. It's kind of like dodat the
- 1:47:36Speaker 8: yellow snow.
- 1:47:37Speaker 3: Yeah, well, Susie, that recipe sounded good to tell. You
- 1:47:43Speaker 3: said something I heard. You cussed. You said something about Munkford.
- 1:47:50Speaker 7: That's sinful, just giving people options.
- 1:47:54Speaker 3: But you know, I think you're probably right. If I
- 1:47:57Speaker 3: would have tried it more, you'll probably get where you
- 1:47:59Speaker 3: adjust to it like it. You're used to it. You've
- 1:48:03Speaker 3: probably been using it for so long you don't think
- 1:48:06Speaker 3: anything about it.
- 1:48:08Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't, I don't have an aftertaste.
- 1:48:12Speaker 3: Yeah, I did that in the kale. I love that
- 1:48:16Speaker 3: line where the guy said, you put a lot of
- 1:48:19Speaker 3: oil in with your kale so it slips smoothly into
- 1:48:23Speaker 3: the trush can.
- 1:48:26Speaker 7: Yeah, if you're gonna do that, then't waster your bacon grease.
- 1:48:30Speaker 3: Yeah. And I love the uh Brussels sprouts sautee and
- 1:48:38Speaker 3: butter and garlic and sea salt. But you're you're not
- 1:48:42Speaker 3: a fan of them, but you like the kale, So.
- 1:48:45Speaker 8: I have to have the.
- 1:48:46Speaker 7: Brussels sprouts so covered in well, actually my favorite. If
- 1:48:53Speaker 7: I'm gonna well, you know, it's kind of wrong to
- 1:48:57Speaker 7: take such a nice expensive sheet He's like good yere
- 1:49:01Speaker 7: and put it on Brussels sprouts. But you know that's
- 1:49:06Speaker 7: that's an expensive cheese. And if I if I were
- 1:49:11Speaker 7: to do, you know, like a Brussels sprouts for the holidays,
- 1:49:15Speaker 7: it would definitely have bacon, garlic, butter and goodiere cheese.
- 1:49:23Speaker 7: And by this time, by that time, you don't even
- 1:49:28Speaker 7: know there's Brussels sprouts in it.
- 1:49:30Speaker 3: Yeah. How about you, Bill, you like Brussels sprouts or kale?
- 1:49:35Speaker 8: Yeah, I've always liked Brussels sprouts and uh kale was
- 1:49:39Speaker 8: sort of a recent addition, uh to my childhood. But yeah,
- 1:49:43Speaker 8: it's okay, Yeah, russell sprouts.
- 1:49:46Speaker 3: I love now okra. I've grown okra, and I'm not
- 1:49:51Speaker 3: really sure why because unless it was fried like the
- 1:49:56Speaker 3: like the Brussels sprouts, I didn't care far too much,
- 1:50:01Speaker 3: but a lot of people do. And I remember the
- 1:50:04Speaker 3: okra growing like a tree.
- 1:50:08Speaker 7: Yeah down there with all the humidity, I wish I
- 1:50:11Speaker 7: had that kind of well, the heat and the humidity.
- 1:50:15Speaker 3: I would be glad to send you the heat and
- 1:50:17Speaker 3: the humidity.
- 1:50:19Speaker 7: I don't want it. I'm just glad it's cool and off.
- 1:50:23Speaker 7: I was up at six this morning and I went
- 1:50:27Speaker 7: outside and it was almost chilly and the sun wasn't up.
- 1:50:32Speaker 3: Yet, and.
- 1:50:34Speaker 7: I'm nice, had a cup of coffee. But okra, there's
- 1:50:39Speaker 7: only my dad used to love stewed okra, which meant
- 1:50:44Speaker 7: with tomatoes, and that was so nasty. And my son
- 1:50:51Speaker 7: is a weirdo and he looks pickled okra and that's nasty.
- 1:50:55Speaker 7: When I grew it, I kid you not. I will
- 1:50:59Speaker 7: make him two or three jars of pickled okra, but
- 1:51:03Speaker 7: the rest of it, and this is just a hint
- 1:51:08Speaker 7: for anyone who wants to put it up in their freezer.
- 1:51:12Speaker 7: I put organic non GMO corn meal, salt, pepper, maybe
- 1:51:18Speaker 7: a little bit of cayenne pepper, and a baggy. Then
- 1:51:24Speaker 7: I cut my okra. And of course they always say,
- 1:51:27Speaker 7: don't wash it because it gets gummy. Well I wanted
- 1:51:31Speaker 7: to get gummy because I want it to be coated
- 1:51:35Speaker 7: in the corn meal, and so I just dump it
- 1:51:39Speaker 7: in a gallon baggy and shake it up, put it
- 1:51:42Speaker 7: in the fridge the next day. Well, if you've grown okra,
- 1:51:45Speaker 7: you know you're picking okra the next day and the
- 1:51:48Speaker 7: next day and the next day. If you don't, they're
- 1:51:50Speaker 7: two feet long and you could kill an intruder with them.
- 1:51:56Speaker 7: And so that's the way I put up okra and
- 1:52:02Speaker 7: put it in the baggy with cornmeal.
- 1:52:04Speaker 3: You like okreville.
- 1:52:08Speaker 8: If it's uh, yeah, I don't like it stewed, because.
- 1:52:15Speaker 5: There is.
- 1:52:17Speaker 8: An Irish poet who described a dish from Ireland. But
- 1:52:23Speaker 8: I think it's apropos to ochre did it? It looks
- 1:52:27Speaker 8: like snot.
- 1:52:29Speaker 7: Yes, Susie.
- 1:52:35Speaker 3: When they say like all of our grandmothers used to
- 1:52:39Speaker 3: do because they didn't have refrigeration when they say they're canning,
- 1:52:43Speaker 3: Are they pickling or is that a different procedure.
- 1:52:47Speaker 7: That's different, that's pickling you're you're going to have, or
- 1:52:53Speaker 7: it can be the same because when you put up
- 1:52:57Speaker 7: your pickles, you put you put your cucumbers however you
- 1:53:03Speaker 7: want them, in Hamburger slices or you know, whole or spears,
- 1:53:09Speaker 7: and you stuff a jar with it tightly, and then
- 1:53:15Speaker 7: you've got the hot liquid, water, pickling spices, salt well,
- 1:53:23Speaker 7: and also you could add, you know, a couple of
- 1:53:26Speaker 7: clothes of garlic, You could add sprigs of deal. You
- 1:53:30Speaker 7: could add you know, some pickling. Well, it depends on
- 1:53:41Speaker 7: what you're pickling. And I haven't done pickles in so
- 1:53:46Speaker 7: so long, so I haven't looked at it. But you
- 1:53:48Speaker 7: pour that hot liquid into your jars, and then you
- 1:53:53Speaker 7: put your sterilized caps on top, then your rings, and
- 1:53:58Speaker 7: then you sit and wait for that pop.
- 1:54:01Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember that, you know what I've noticed. I
- 1:54:05Speaker 3: like traditional pickle flavoring better than I do the fermented pickles.
- 1:54:13Speaker 3: But I love the fermented juice. I haven't quite figured
- 1:54:17Speaker 3: that out because I love all that all of my
- 1:54:20Speaker 3: pickled juice. I've got one of every kind, and I
- 1:54:26Speaker 3: drink some every single day. But some of the pickles
- 1:54:30Speaker 3: don't taste as good to me as a regular deal pickle,
- 1:54:34Speaker 3: or a bread and butter pickle or Hamburger slices, that
- 1:54:38Speaker 3: kind of thing.
- 1:54:40Speaker 7: Maybe it's the texture. I don't think every single vegetable
- 1:54:47Speaker 7: or fruit ferments well, like we wouldn't want to fermanent strawberries.
- 1:54:55Speaker 7: I mean maybe if you were going to make like
- 1:54:58Speaker 7: a jam.
- 1:55:01Speaker 3: Yeah, that doesn't sound good. I just noticed that I
- 1:55:04Speaker 3: liked the juice, you know, the all of my pickles,
- 1:55:08Speaker 3: all the juices, I love them. But the taste of
- 1:55:11Speaker 3: the pickles, it's okay, but it's not to me as
- 1:55:15Speaker 3: good as the other kind of pickles. And I'm not sure,
- 1:55:17Speaker 3: I guess just me.
- 1:55:20Speaker 7: So there's this I don't know if you remember or
- 1:55:24Speaker 7: ever watched that series Swamp People. So I was flipping
- 1:55:31Speaker 7: through YouTube and I saw this one guy. He's really,
- 1:55:38Speaker 7: really really Louisiana. He's the definition and I had to
- 1:55:45Speaker 7: watch this show. It's like fifteen minutes or less. And
- 1:55:49Speaker 7: he made pine needle sprite and he said that his
- 1:55:56Speaker 7: grandmother taught him and they used to make it when
- 1:55:59Speaker 7: they were kids, and they walked around and they picked
- 1:56:02Speaker 7: this long, long leaf, you know, long needles washed in
- 1:56:07Speaker 7: his his words, where you don't want no bugs in
- 1:56:10Speaker 7: your sprite, and cut the ends off that are sticky,
- 1:56:18Speaker 7: and then they're these these pine needles were so long
- 1:56:23Speaker 7: that they had that. He cut him in half and
- 1:56:26Speaker 7: then put him in a quart jar, and he put
- 1:56:29Speaker 7: like five tablespoons of sugar in it, filled it with water,
- 1:56:36Speaker 7: put the lid on it, and in five days he
- 1:56:39Speaker 7: had what he called sprite's and it was fermnted fermented
- 1:56:46Speaker 7: pine needles.
- 1:56:47Speaker 3: Interesting. Interesting, Well, well it's already that time of the night. Bill.
- 1:56:57Speaker 3: Do you have any special kind of food that you
- 1:57:00Speaker 3: really like that you have a head in a long time?
- 1:57:04Speaker 8: Mm hmm, oh, not especially, as I said some time ago,
- 1:57:08Speaker 8: I like I especially like farm food, and I don't
- 1:57:13Speaker 8: much like a fancy food. Well, way too much work
- 1:57:19Speaker 8: to go true. But I had an interesting recipe and
- 1:57:24Speaker 8: I'm going to try that in the next match of chili.
- 1:57:27Speaker 8: I make about putting chocolate in it semi either either
- 1:57:35Speaker 8: like a tablespoon in a in a crock bottle, you know,
- 1:57:39Speaker 8: a good sized cockp a tablespoon of semi sweet or
- 1:57:42Speaker 8: bitter chocolate. You can't identify the taste of the chocolate
- 1:57:47Speaker 8: in a chili, but it brings out the flavor in
- 1:57:51Speaker 8: all the spices that you put in it.
- 1:57:53Speaker 3: Interesting.
- 1:57:55Speaker 8: That's kind of an interesting idea. So I think I'm
- 1:57:57Speaker 8: going to try and see how that flies.
- 1:58:00Speaker 7: If you can find if you can find Haaso t
- 1:58:05Speaker 7: a z O, I've seen that nance Grocer's has it.
- 1:58:12Speaker 7: It's a Mexican chocolate and it's absolulutely perfect for what
- 1:58:17Speaker 7: you're talking.
- 1:58:19Speaker 3: Sounds good. I gotta try that. I gotta try that. Yeah, guys,
- 1:58:24Speaker 3: I guess that time, Susie. Anything you want to close with?
- 1:58:28Speaker 3: I think I interrupted you there.
- 1:58:30Speaker 7: I was just gonna say, he's right for a big pot,
- 1:58:33Speaker 7: you know, Dutch oven whatever, A tablespoon of chocolate. That's
- 1:58:38Speaker 7: that's plenty.
- 1:58:40Speaker 3: Sounds good. Anything you want to close with before we
- 1:58:43Speaker 3: wrap it up?
- 1:58:44Speaker 7: Nope, Bill, Yeah, I.
- 1:58:49Speaker 8: Was unsuccessful at trying to remember a couple of jokes
- 1:58:52Speaker 8: about rumbles.
- 1:58:59Speaker 3: And Susie said that I get stuff from the dark web. Interesting.
- 1:59:05Speaker 3: All right, guys, Well, great show. Glad to have you back, Bill,
- 1:59:11Speaker 3: Glad the whole team's here. I still say last week
- 1:59:16Speaker 3: my back was killing me, and somehow I got through
- 1:59:20Speaker 3: the show, and it was hurting a lot, but I
- 1:59:25Speaker 3: felt better doing the show. So I think there's something
- 1:59:29Speaker 3: therapeutic to what we do.
- 1:59:32Speaker 8: I hope, because I know it works on us sitting down.
- 1:59:38Speaker 3: And I'm trying to work on the pump bringing the
- 1:59:41Speaker 3: Scotch in here during the show so I don't have
- 1:59:43Speaker 3: to struggle. But anyway, it is that time, ladies and gentlemen,
- 1:59:48Speaker 3: where we thank you for tuning in. We've got nine
- 1:59:52Speaker 3: or ten nations that are listening, not counting the United States,
- 1:59:57Speaker 3: so we got people all around the world, and we're
- 2:00:00Speaker 3: very happy and humbled, and we have a great team
- 2:00:04Speaker 3: here and I know you love them as much as
- 2:00:07Speaker 3: I do, and without them, the show would not be
- 2:00:10Speaker 3: the same. So I'm so grateful for what we've got
- 2:00:13Speaker 3: and it's just fun. So May God bless you all
- 2:00:21Speaker 3: with health and happiness and keep your lives peaceful, free
- 2:00:27Speaker 3: and safe. And as you know, it is time for
- 2:00:32Speaker 3: good scotch, good cigars, and good night.
- 2:00:39Speaker 8: Good night all.
- 2:00:41Speaker 7: You're not anyone, God bless.
- 2:00:45Speaker 5: Seems the love I've known has always been the most
- 2:00:49Speaker 5: destructive kind. I guess that's why now I feel so
- 2:00:55Speaker 5: old before my time. Yesterday when I was young. The
- 2:01:05Speaker 5: taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue.
- 2:01:11Speaker 5: I teased at length, as if it were a foolish game,
- 2:01:16Speaker 5: the way the even breeze.
- 2:01:19Speaker 3: May tease a candle flame.
- 2:01:21Speaker 5: The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned.
- 2:01:27Speaker 5: I always built to last on weakened, shifting sand. I
- 2:01:33Speaker 5: lived by night and shunned the naked light of day.
- 2:01:38Speaker 5: And only now I see how the years ran away.
- 2:01:43Speaker 5: Yesterday when I was young, and so many happy songs
- 2:01:51Speaker 5: were waiting to be
