  Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Friday morning, twenty, first day of March. I'm Wes, thanks
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: for joining me. Still got the pollen crud going on.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Not quite as strong this morning as it has been,
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: but the pollen crud continues. It doesn't matter. Get a
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: little rain, it just washes it off and then it's
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: just right back to it. It's just in the air,
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: floating around, filling your lungs like a garbage can bag
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: or like a vacuum cleaner bag. That's what it feels like.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: It's awful.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: It is awful, but we continue on. We got to
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: power through this. We're into this first full day of
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: spring and we are working our way now into We've
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: got a couple more weeks, I guess before we start
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: to get any kind of pollen relief. I'm not an expert,
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: I'm not a pollenologist, but I can tell you it's
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: going to be a couple of weeks of dealing with
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: this before we get any kind of relief for it.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: And the good news is once we get past this
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: pollen stage of all of this, then we'll get into
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: the you know, much hotter mosquitoes, roaches, wasps, phase of it.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Wasps are already everywhere. I don't know if you've already
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: experienced the wasps. They're everywhere already, very quickly. They just
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: come out and ready to just hang out, be around,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: be everywhere. What you guys doing out here? The yellow
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: jackets are the ones that, oh, what is that a
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: can of a beverage? Let me go nose around in
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: there and see if I can't sting somebody's mouth anyway.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: That would be a weird story from the news, certainly
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: strange and bizarre, wouldn't it. It's Friday. Let's do some
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: strange and bizarre news from around the world. And this
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: first one is, uh, it's a weird one. Okay, I
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: mean they're all weird typically, but this one's especially weird.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: But it relates to something that we're all kind of
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: dealing with, and is inflation, specifically the price of eggs
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: and egg prices, I guess have started to go back down.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: But egg prices aren't just due to inflation. Egg prices
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: are also due to you know, avian flu and all
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: that stuff. So here we go with people dealing with
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: the high price of eggs and a man in Florida
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: found a cheaper alternative iguana eggs. John Johnson, the owner
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: of Down It Goes Iguana, an iguana removal company, is
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: the guy in question. Green iguanas are an invasive species
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: in Florida. Johnson's business hunts them down. Johnson recently started
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: removing the eggs from the iguanas and then whipping them
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: into iguana omelets. He insists they don't taste any differently
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: than chicken eggs. He says, tastes like eggs because they
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: are eggs. I mean, this isn't against the law, I guess,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: but it's a strange story and a strange thing to
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: be getting interviewed in the news for I guess. But hey,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: good for you. You know they always talk about, you know,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: alligator crocodile tastes like chicken, or frog legs taste like
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: chicken or whatever. So I guess this kind of makes sense.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I have to get really desperate for
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: eggs before I would go to the iguana eggs. Just
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: saying all right, let's go to Madison County, Tennessee, where
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: police are searching for four suspects accused of robbing a
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: convenience store using pythons. Police obtained surveillance camera footage showing
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: the suspects walking up to the counter holding two ball pythons.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: At one point, a man places one of the snakes
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: on the counter while someone else dangled a second one
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: over the counter, and they were distracting the cashier with
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: the snakes. The other two suspects walked out of the
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: store with four hundred dollars worth of CBD oil. Police
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: are looking for two men and two women and apparently
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: some pythons who drove off in a black car. So
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: there you go, back to Florida. A Florida man who
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: has some weird food combinations was arrested after he treated
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: a public's supermarket like in all you can eat buffet.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Fifty four year old Laundriel Harris entered the store in
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: the village on a motorized scooter cruised the aisles eating
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: shrimp Snickers bars, of course, not paying for either. Otherwise
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: you know this isn't really a story. Employees followed him
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: and ultimately stopped him when he tried to ride past
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: the checkout and out of the store. Public says he
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: helped himself to about forty five dollars worth of food.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Police came and arrested him for petty theft. I mean,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: I see the people just kind of sampling the grapes,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: you know, and they sample things out of the you know,
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: those little barrels of candy, if you ever see though,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: they still have those in a few places. Maybe he
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: thought that's all he was doing. I don't know. When
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: you're opening the Snickers bars, you're crossing a line there,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: aren't you. All right, we already had a couple stories
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: and involved animals. Let's do another animal story. I mentioned
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: alligators earlier, and that's what made me think to go
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: back to it. But all right, when you're checking out
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: of a hotel room, it's usually a good idea to
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: a once over and make sure you didn't leave something
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: important behind. Maybe a phone charger, medications. Maybe you're traveling
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: with a weapon and you've stored it in the safe.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Maybe you travel with your pet alligator. Police in Michigan
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: were called to a motel in Pine Rivers after cleaning
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: personnel entered a just vacated room and found a three
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: foot alligator lounging under the bed. Police figured out that
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: the gator's name is Wally, and then he belongs to
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: a man he owns multiple exotic animals and brings them
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: to elementary schools for demonstrations. He told police he knew
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Wally was missing, but thought he had somehow gotten away
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: from him. He didn't realize that he had actually had
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: left Wally behind at the motel. Police held on to
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: Wally until he could be reunited with his owner. I've
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: got questions. First of all, if this is a pet
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: friendly hotel, is it also pet friendly if one of
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: the pets might eat one of the other pets. I
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: guess that's a question I've got first of all. Second
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: of all, oops, Wally got away from me. I'm just
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: gonna check out and leave, or maybe let somebody at
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: the hotel know, or I don't know, let authorities know, Hey,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: I'm missing a three foot alligator. Next, and I'm all
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: for you know, kids getting to see animals up close.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: And I've had some encounters with those type things with
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: small alligators. But I mean taking an alligator to an
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: elementary school. Do I need to finish the question?
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Is that enough?
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: There's no due date when it comes to doing the
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: right thing. So a public library in New Jersey has
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: forgiven the family of Mary Cooper for hanging onto an
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: overdue book for ninety nine years. The eighty one year
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: old says she was going through her mother's old belongings
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: when she found an old book which had been taken
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: out of the Ocean County Library. The book, titled Homemade
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: Toys for Girls and Boys, was due back at the
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: library March thirty first, nineteen twenty six. The library told
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: her that her late fee, adjusted for inflation, would likely
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: amount to about eighteen thousand dollars, but lucky for her,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: the library had gotten rid of late fees several years ago.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: The library was happy to have the book back, and
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: has since been put on display for visitors to take
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: a look at. I would think eighteen thousand dollars have
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: been excessive. I know they don't do the fees anymore,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: most libraries don't. And then I don't know how relevant
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: this book is in twenty twenty five. Homemade Toys for
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: Girls and Boys. I mean, should the apocalypse come along
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: and we lose electricity and have to go back to
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: basic living, then yes, that book would be important, but
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: it doesn't seem overly relevant right now. Hey, Florida man
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: is pretty serious about his love of karaoke, and he
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: got himself into some trouble over the weekend before he
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: was able to get out his version of I Fought
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: the Law po Lease. A thirty four year old Aaron
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Jablonski was at the Overtime Sports Bar in clear Water
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: and wanted to show off his smooth, velvety voice, but
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: the karaoke machine wasn't working, and Jablonsky became angry that
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: he wasn't able to show off his pipes and stormed
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: out of the bar. Maybe he was all so having
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: a good allergy throat pipes and he wanted to do that.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Another patron followed him out, hoping to calm him down,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: but Jablonski wasn't having it. Pulled out a pistol, pointed
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: the firearm at the other man and fired off around
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: and it did miss the other person. Police arrived on
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: the scene found Jablonski holding the gun. He was arrested
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: in charge with aggravated assault possessing a firearm. As a
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: convicted felon, he has a lengthy rap sheet and was
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: not allowed to own a firearm. So guy really wanted
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: to do his karaoke. He was excited. I think it's
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: not fair if people are that kind of excited for
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: something and it's not available to them. Yes, he overreacted,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: but all right. Back to another gator story. An alligator
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: in Florida looking for a bite to eat. Not overly
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: pleased with the regular everyday offerings at his local swamp.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: He couldn't even find iguana egg sobod he'd and stealing those,
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: so he decided to go over to Paul Quinn's house
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: for a snack. Paul Quinn of Fort Myers prefers guests
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: to call ahead or at least knock at the door,
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: but the hungry gator decided to let himself in by
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: biting his way through a patio door entering the kitchen. Quinn,
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: who was busy checking his emails, was shocked to walk
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: into his kitchen and find the large reptile staring back
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: at him. Quinn grabbed his phone called a wildlife trapper
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: while making sure he kept a safe distance away. The
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: trapper arrived and battled the gator, who wasn't willing to
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: go peacefully. Quinn captured the encounter on video and shared
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: it to social media. It sounds like a good time
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: sounds like a really good time. He should be thankful
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: he was checking his emails and not going for a snack.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: This could have ended very differently. Ah oh, let's get
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: into Georgia where a man was arrested after last week
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: in Florida. So it's a Georgia man. But the crime
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: happened in Florida after he hopped into a police cruiser
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: and told the officer at the wheel to drive him home.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: Thirty one year old Andrew Davison was drunk may have
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: believed the cop was actually a taxi, even though the
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: officer had the emergency lights flashing. Maybe that's the taxi's
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: way of saying or maybe he thought it was the
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: cash cab, or maybe he just thought they were saying
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: that they were open to a fair. The officer told
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: him to stay seated in the car and then drove
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: him to jail, where he was booked for trespassing in
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: an occupied structure. He spent the night in jail bonded
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: out the next day. So cash cab would have been
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: a good excuse. I thought it was the cash cab.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: I wanted to win some money. Do they still do
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: the cash cab? I know it still airs. But do
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: they still do new episodes? All right, we got another
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: Florida story. They just keep coming. A Florida man arrested
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: after he went to a strip club and unlawfully obtained
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: the property of another, which in this case is a
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: fancy police way of saying that he got lap dances
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: he didn't pay for. Police in clear Water this is
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: the second Clearwater one allege that thirty nine year old
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: John Elberson received one hundred and sixty dollars worth of
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: private dances at the Rain the Ladies and Gents Club.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: When he was ready to call it a night, he
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: was handed a bill that seemed to take him by surprise.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: He informed the establishment that he did not have the
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: money to pay for his services. The club called police
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: and they arrested Elberson for theft. He spent twelve hours
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: in jail, where he definitely did not get a lap dance,
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: or at least he didn't want to, and was eventually
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: released on his own recognizance in order to stay away
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: from the establishment. So hard working ladies, they just you know,
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: the bills due, it's time to pay the bill. These
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: ladies are working, hard, working their way through college. A
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: delivering pizzas was not the job description of one Florida
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: police officer, but a large alligator gave him no other choice.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: I picked some good ones. They're all like. We got
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: a lot of alligator related stories. I tried to spread
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: them out for you. The officer was called about an
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: eight foot alligator in a driveway that was blocking off
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: the area until a trapper could get there. Minutes later,
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: a pizza delivery driver arrived to bring food to the
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: elderly owner of the home where the gator was. The
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: officer told the delivery girl to stay away, but she
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: was concerned about making her delivery thirty minutes or less.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: Right Meanwhile, the elderly woman inside the house, expecting the pizza,
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: open the door and shouted, where's my pizza. The officer
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: ordered her to stay inside because there was a huge
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: gator outside, and then agreed to deliver the pizza for her.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: He met the woman at the back door, handed her
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: the pizza. She handed him some cash to take back
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: to the driver. The alligator was eventually trapped and removed.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: The encounter captured on the officer's body cam. You know,
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: the lady want where's my pizza? I'm thinking Betty White,
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: what was the name of the movie with the giant alligator,
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: and she had the cow and she was feeding them.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: That's not what was happening here, but that's what it
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: made me think about. And finally, a New Jersey man
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: walking his dog on the beach stumbled upon a stash
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: of whiskey from the Prohibition era. How about this, Austin
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: conte Giacomo says, he was walking his dog, Coda, thankfully
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: the dog's name is short, on the beach of Atlantic City,
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: when Coda suddenly started rolling around on top of a
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: brown bottle. He shoot him away from it, but Coda
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: found another bottle, and then another. Eventually eleven of these
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: bottles were found, each one marked with the name Lincoln In.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: A friend of his did some research and learned that
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: the Lincoln Inn was a distillery that produced whiskey and
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: mantra in the nineteen thirties. Austin posted his story on Reddit,
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: got responses from whiskey aficionados and people in a bottle
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: digging group. They confirmed that some of the markings on
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: the bottle confirm it was produced at some point in
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: the thirties. How it ended up on the Jersey Shore
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: is another question. Austin says he kept a bottle for
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: himself and gifted the others to some friends. No one
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: has been brave enough to open the bottle yet, although
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: he believes the whiskey inside looks normal and probably is
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: unaffected by time and the elements. You know, Crack it open,
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: give it a slancha cheers. Crack it open, see what
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: it tastes like. Today's show brought to you by Columbus

  Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: Maybe you're curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather. Sometimes
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: as well. Seven oh six Thtory five eight forty five

• 19:04
  Speaker 2: the break well, spring officially began yesterday. Today's the first
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: full day of spring, and this begins what's often referred
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: to as uncuffing season. Holidays and cold weather months known
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: as cuffing season. And if there's a cuffing season, while
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: there has to be an uncuffing season. A cuffing season,
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: of course, is when people cling to relationships, even if
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: it's the wrong person. But with spring and warmer weather
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: on the horizon, that's when breakups start to happen. Sunshine,
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: longer days make people happier, more social, and adventurous. Often
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: means that they want new experiences. So basically it's like
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: spring cleaning out with the old and with the new
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: opportunities to meet new people, all those sorts of things.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: This is something that happens this time of year. It's spring.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: You know, animals are out, you know, chirping and presenting
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: in whatever animals do, that's what they do, right, They
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: chirp and present trying to make new friends, try and
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: adventurous new things. A glass of white wine on a
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: lovely spring day might be up your alley. But many
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: studies have shown some health benefits of drinking wine. A
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: new study has found a new health risk. Researchers at
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: Brown University suggest that wine drinkers who only drink white
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: wine and not red wine have a twenty two percent
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: greater risk of getting skin cancer. The reasons for the
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: findings remain unclear, although one theory is that people tend
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: to enjoy white wine outdoors and are therefore at risk
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: of dangerous sun exposure. So if you enjoy a glass
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: of wine from time to time, maybe give a red
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: a try, or drink some white wine indoors. It's always
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: interesting the way they find. Like, you know, they'll say
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: something like, oh, if you drink white wine, you're more
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: likely to get skin cancer, and you think, oh my gosh,
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: that's terrible. And then they say, oh, but because you
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: probably drink it outside and you know what, I don't
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: drink it outside, so maybe I'm not more likely to
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: get skin cancer. All right? Forget quiet quitting workers these
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: days are revenge quitting. It's basically a take this job
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: and shove it approach where people who are tired of people.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: If people know that song, I mean I know my
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: age and older know it. I don't know that younger
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: people know that song, they should. They should look in
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: to take this job and shove it the song just
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: saym people tired of low wages and lousy treatment, they
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: quit their jobs in some dramatic disruptive way, like leaving
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: in the middle of a shift, quitting at a really
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: busy time of year, and then sharing negative opinions about
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: the company publicly. This is a new idea of people
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: choosing to quit their jobs in the most inconvenient way
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: possible to disrupt the business. According to a TikTok creator
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: Ben Askins, he says, it's a form of protests and
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: what they perceive as unfair treatment. Yeah, I've witnessed it.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: I've seen people do it. I've been one of the
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: people watching it and cheering on the person who was
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: doing the very disruptive quitting. So, I mean, I think
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: that's doesn't surprise me that in an era of social media,
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: it seems like it would make more sense for people
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: to do that. Hey, how's your bracket, as some already
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: in bad shape after getting the tournament underway, a lot
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: of people expected to be missing out on quality work time.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: Even if you're at work, you may not be putting
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: in the amount of work with these games that are
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: going on during days. So you know, if you tell them, hey,
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: I'm just listening to my favorite podcast, which you know
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: you're doing now, I guess, and then they think later
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: maybe that's all you're doing and your phone is propped
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: up in a position where you can see it and
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: you're watching the games or whatever. So but don't forget
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: to include listening to your favorite podcast as you're doing now.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Over in Europe, they're building a tunnel that will feature
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: two double lane highways and two rail lines under the
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: Baltic Sea, and it's going to allow people to get
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: back and forth between Denmark and Germany without having to
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: get on a ferry. That means that a ferry trip
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: that once took forty five minutes will now be a
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: ten minute drive, which will cut out total travel time
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: from Hamburg to Copenhagen from five hours to just two
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: and a half hours. That's not bad, unless, of course,
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: there's traffic in this tunnel, in which case that would
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: be a giant pain, because traffic is bad. Traffic in
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: a tunnel really bad. Regulators in Colorado now issuing licenses
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: to health centers that will allow them to provide psychedelic
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: mushrooms to patients. Visitors to these healing centers, which are
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: scheduled open as early as late spring, will be allowed
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: to ingest mushrooms under supervision. Huge victory for many mental
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: health professionals who have been working towards making it safe
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: to use legal magic mushrooms to help patients with depression, anxiety,
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: and more. Once you get the first one, that's when
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: they all start to fall. All the dominoes start to
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: fall once one place decides to do it, Colorado jumping
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: in there. So we'll see if this trend catches on,
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: because I mean, at least you're not constantly smelling mushrooms outside.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: If it's from a medicinal standpoint, the constant smell of
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: marijuana everywhere around Columbus is it's unending there's no letting up.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: That'll do it for this Friday edition of the show.
