0:09
Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, twelfth day of August. I'm West Thanks for
0:14
Speaker 2: joining me pushing our way almost two weeks into this
0:20
Speaker 2: month of August and working our way towards Labor Day weekend,
0:24
Speaker 2: which means dragon Con and the dragon Con Pregame Show
0:28
Speaker 2: coming up twenty third and twenty fourth of the month,
0:30
Speaker 2: powered by Columbus State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center
0:35
Speaker 2: and always great to have them on board as a
0:39
Speaker 2: sponsor of our coverage and a long history of that.
0:43
Speaker 2: And you can check out past episodes of the dragon
0:45
Speaker 2: Con Pregame Show podcast wherever you listen to this podcast.
0:51
Speaker 2: I want to talk today about It's been one of
0:55
Speaker 2: those things that happen and it has been and bounced
1:01
Speaker 2: around on some of the news channels, things that they
1:04
Speaker 2: want to talk about, popped in some feeds, saw it
1:07
Speaker 2: in a few places. I'll be honest with you, I
1:10
Speaker 2: don't know who this person is, would never have ever
1:15
Speaker 2: once spoken this person's name, don't know the last time
1:21
Speaker 2: I talked in any capacity about Bravo. But as this
1:25
Speaker 2: woman Jennifer Welch, who was on a podcast. Now is
1:29
Speaker 2: this her podcast or is it someone else's show, I
1:32
Speaker 2: don't know, but she talked about Trump and Trump supporters.
1:42
Speaker 2: And this is a thing that is currently happening, really
1:48
Speaker 2: as Democrats are trying to reinvent themselves. It wasn't long
1:54
Speaker 2: ago that Republicans found themselves in this place where they
2:01
Speaker 2: were facing this similar type of crisis, if you will,
2:07
Speaker 2: where it seemed like Democrats were owning a lot of
2:13
Speaker 2: the marketable terms, like they had ownership of things that
2:17
Speaker 2: seemed to matter to Middle America, mainstream America, whatever you want.
2:24
Speaker 1: To call it.
2:25
Speaker 2: And I don't think it's completely the same situation, but
2:29
Speaker 2: it is very similar in a lot of ways. And
2:31
Speaker 2: I have done a couple of shows where I talked
2:33
Speaker 2: about the things that Democrats used to sort of have
2:39
Speaker 2: some sort of say in control over, and they attacked
2:42
Speaker 2: Republicans for doing certain things. And now it's really flipped
2:47
Speaker 2: a lot, because now you have Democrats doing many of
2:51
Speaker 2: the things that Republicans used to be labeled for doing.
2:58
Speaker 2: An example of that is when you would refer to
3:04
Speaker 2: the right or conservatives or Republicans, you would often Republicans
3:07
Speaker 2: are very proud of their religious faiths and their desires
3:16
Speaker 2: for certain outcomes based on their religious faith. Now the
3:23
Speaker 2: left has its version of that. And I'm not labeling
3:26
Speaker 2: everyone on the left as non religious. That's not what
3:31
Speaker 2: I mean with what I'm saying. It's just many on
3:35
Speaker 2: the left have ingrained their politics into their religion and
3:41
Speaker 2: their churches. And it's not to say that it hasn't
3:43
Speaker 2: happened on the right. It certainly did for a long time.
3:46
Speaker 2: And this is one of those flips that I'm talking about.
3:50
Speaker 2: But when you go into a church and you basically say,
3:55
Speaker 2: we understand this is what the Bible says, but this
3:58
Speaker 2: doesn't feel right to us. We want to make the
4:01
Speaker 2: church more palatable to people. So we're going to change
4:04
Speaker 2: the way the church views this particular thing so that
4:08
Speaker 2: we can bring more people in. And then ultimately we're
4:12
Speaker 2: not going to tell them that it's wrong. We're just
4:15
Speaker 2: going to basically incorporate it into the way the church functions. Now,
4:21
Speaker 2: this big split that happened in the Methodist churches where
4:26
Speaker 2: you had this idea that you know, well, we need
4:29
Speaker 2: to have gay ministers. We've got to be able to
4:31
Speaker 2: do that, and that caused quite a bit of a rift.
4:35
Speaker 2: It's happened in a number of denominations in churches over
4:38
Speaker 2: the years, and this is certainly not going to be
4:41
Speaker 2: the last time something like this happens. But that's just
4:44
Speaker 2: an example of what we're talking about. There's a number
4:48
Speaker 2: of things. The very fact that we have churches that
4:52
Speaker 2: will not speak against abortion at the very least late
4:58
Speaker 2: term abortion, like because of politics. This is a political thing,
5:04
Speaker 2: and this is why there's this fear of alienating people
5:09
Speaker 2: by not wanting to come across as against whatever the
5:16
Speaker 2: political wave was. And now the political wave is going
5:19
Speaker 2: in the other direction, which makes this all really interesting.
5:23
Speaker 2: The other component of this, as far as religion goes,
5:27
Speaker 2: is a lot of science has become religion for a
5:30
Speaker 2: lot of people on the left, and a sort of
5:34
Speaker 2: extreme or just extremism in general. Climate change is a
5:41
Speaker 2: religion to many on the left, and it's and I've
5:46
Speaker 2: said this before, and I can't help but reinforce sometimes
5:51
Speaker 2: when you hear people screaming that the world is coming
5:55
Speaker 2: to an end because of climate change, We're all going
5:58
Speaker 2: to die. You know, is going to boil, there'll be
6:01
Speaker 2: no ice, it'll be too hot for us to live.
6:04
Speaker 2: We have twelve years, fourteen years. It's always ten to fourteen.
6:10
Speaker 2: Twelve is the number of the sweet spot. I think
6:12
Speaker 2: in the middle. That's not really different. If you go
6:16
Speaker 2: back to the late eighties and early nineties, you know
6:21
Speaker 2: the world's about to end, you'd hear from religious groups,
6:25
Speaker 2: more extreme religious groups, but you'd still hear it. I
6:29
Speaker 2: remember it was on nineteen eighty eight. That's it, it's
6:31
Speaker 2: the end of the world. It's going to happen. And
6:34
Speaker 2: we heard those things, we heard them a lot. And
6:37
Speaker 2: meanwhile the left just sort of laughed at those extremist
6:44
Speaker 2: Christians over there on the right that are saying the
6:46
Speaker 2: world's going to end. And now it's the other way.
6:49
Speaker 2: It's ah, the world's going to end in twelve years.
6:52
Speaker 2: And we have to get climate control. We have to
6:56
Speaker 2: figure out how we're going to reverse all of the
6:58
Speaker 2: things that we've done for so long that you know,
7:02
Speaker 2: China's doing at an even more rapid rate now than ever,
7:06
Speaker 2: and nothing that we do could undo it anyway, if
7:10
Speaker 2: it's even something that could be undone or needs to
7:13
Speaker 2: be undone, and all those questions, but that's not This
7:17
Speaker 2: isn't about that. This is just about the fact that
7:19
Speaker 2: there's been this significant flip in a lot of ways,
7:23
Speaker 2: and Democrats are trying to figure out how to rebrand themselves.
7:26
Speaker 2: They're trying to find whatever that term is, or terms
7:30
Speaker 2: or things that they can own. From a marketing standpoint,
7:33
Speaker 2: there's just certain things in marketing that you want to own.
7:36
Speaker 2: You want to own ideas like best or first, any
7:40
Speaker 2: of those things. There's just certain things in a marketing standpoint.
7:43
Speaker 2: You want to own a word that describes your product,
7:48
Speaker 2: that you can say, there's others that are like it,
7:51
Speaker 2: but we want to own this idea so that people
7:54
Speaker 2: will think of us first. Democrats are trying to find
7:58
Speaker 2: what that is for them. They don't know what it
8:00
Speaker 2: is right now. They're in a lot of trouble and
8:04
Speaker 2: anytime that it seems like a small group of them
8:08
Speaker 2: are starting to circle the wagons, and maybe they are,
8:12
Speaker 2: but trying to figure out what are we going to
8:14
Speaker 2: do next, you get these extreme cases that pop out
8:18
Speaker 2: and you have people that are really embarrassing themselves. This
8:24
Speaker 2: latest version of this comes from whoever this Jennifer Welch
8:28
Speaker 2: is And I'm sorry, I don't know, and I didn't
8:30
Speaker 2: even look it up. I don't care. It's irrelevant to me.
8:33
Speaker 2: This is a person who is labeled in every story
8:38
Speaker 2: as bravostar, former Bravo star, all right, And she basically
8:44
Speaker 2: did this rant on this podcast where she basically said
8:48
Speaker 2: that Trump and Trump supporters should stay out of Mexican restaurants,
8:56
Speaker 2: out of Asian restaurants, Chinese restaurants because the people there
9:01
Speaker 2: shouldn't be allowing them to come in, shouldn't be they
9:06
Speaker 2: shouldn't feel welcome there because of immigration things, and that
9:12
Speaker 2: she basically said that Trump supporters should get their fat
9:16
Speaker 2: butts over to cracker barrel instead. So this has happened,
9:24
Speaker 2: and it's caused some more conversation about where things are,
9:29
Speaker 2: and I feel like it's important to bring it up,
9:31
Speaker 2: not because of how ridiculous is and it is ridiculous,
9:35
Speaker 2: but because this is something that is a continuation of
9:39
Speaker 2: something that's been going on for a while, this idea
9:43
Speaker 2: that if you don't think the way that they do,
9:46
Speaker 2: or you don't vote the way that they do, or
9:49
Speaker 2: you don't hate Trump as much as they do, you
9:52
Speaker 2: shouldn't be allowed to participate in society. We went through
9:57
Speaker 2: this in the last few election cycles, where it was basically,
10:00
Speaker 2: you know, we're gonna get in your faces. We're gonna
10:03
Speaker 2: remember Maxine Waters, We're gonna get in your faces at
10:08
Speaker 2: the gasoline stations. We were seeing it at restaurants as
10:12
Speaker 2: people were going in and harassing people known to be
10:15
Speaker 2: conservative and trying to run them out of restaurants, in
10:18
Speaker 2: some cases successfully running them out of restaurants, using fear
10:22
Speaker 2: tactics to say we're going to terrorize you until you submit.
10:28
Speaker 2: You don't deserve to participate in society. You shouldn't be
10:31
Speaker 2: out there. You shouldn't be enjoying life, you shouldn't be
10:34
Speaker 2: doing things. You should be at home, ashamed of yourself
10:37
Speaker 2: because of what you've done. And apparently in this case,
10:39
Speaker 2: you should be at cracker barrel. So other examples that
10:47
Speaker 2: we've had with this, and this isn't even I mean,
10:50
Speaker 2: I could give the example of you know, hey, I
10:53
Speaker 2: don't want to cater this wedding. I don't want to
10:58
Speaker 2: be forced to participate in certain language when it comes
11:02
Speaker 2: to people and genders and things. I don't want to
11:05
Speaker 2: be obligated in being a part of something that I
11:08
Speaker 2: don't agree with or believe in, or something that I
11:11
Speaker 2: believe to be mental illness or something that I believe
11:13
Speaker 2: to be wrong. And people then were told, you don't
11:20
Speaker 2: deserve to have a house. We're going to sue you
11:22
Speaker 2: until you lose your house and your business and your
11:25
Speaker 2: family suffers, and that's what you deserve. That's not even
11:31
Speaker 2: the one I was going to talk about. I'm not
11:33
Speaker 2: even really going to spend a lot of time talking
11:35
Speaker 2: about this idea that if you're the CEO of a
11:38
Speaker 2: healthcare company, you deserve to die, because even if your
11:43
Speaker 2: health care company didn't deny the claims of a crazy person,
11:47
Speaker 2: that crazy person still has a right to murder you
11:50
Speaker 2: in the street and take you away from your family
11:52
Speaker 2: and them never see you again, because some of these
11:59
Speaker 2: healthcare presidents and CEOs or bad people, being a bad
12:04
Speaker 2: person automatically means or having done bad things means that
12:09
Speaker 2: you deserve to die in cold blood in the street.
12:14
Speaker 2: Not even talking about that, and the fact that people
12:16
Speaker 2: still defend it, still defending it. It is still something
12:19
Speaker 2: that people are defending. And I'm not even talking about that.
12:24
Speaker 2: I'm talking about the specific cases of people saying, good
12:30
Speaker 2: luck if you want to be entertained, you conservatives, because
12:35
Speaker 2: when you go to the movies, you're watching all the
12:37
Speaker 2: movies that our side makes. When you're watching TV, you're
12:41
Speaker 2: watching the shows and programming that we're responsible for. You're
12:46
Speaker 2: watching the things that we are getting pushed out there.
12:50
Speaker 2: When you watch a kid show and you see something
12:52
Speaker 2: in it that's promoting LGBTQ plus lifestyles, then haha, we've
12:59
Speaker 2: got producers behind the scenes doing that. So your kids
13:01
Speaker 2: are watching it and they're being influenced. And this was
13:04
Speaker 2: you know, haha, this came out during COVID, and yes,
13:08
Speaker 2: that was the idea. We're getting this stuff in there
13:12
Speaker 2: and your kids are seeing it. By the way, if
13:15
Speaker 2: you got kids still watching that stuff, you need to
13:18
Speaker 2: be keeping an eye on what they're watching. That's all.
13:21
Speaker 2: I don't know if these people still work it, Disney,
13:24
Speaker 2: but you got to be aware of it. There's a
13:26
Speaker 2: motivation behind it. You don't have a right to go
13:29
Speaker 2: to restaurants or go to movies or watch TV unless
13:35
Speaker 2: you think and act and vote the way that they
13:37
Speaker 2: want you to. That's part of the thinking, that's part
13:41
Speaker 2: of the mindset that is there, and it's still there
13:48
Speaker 2: even if it's not now mainstream being talked about. It
13:51
Speaker 2: pops up in these situations with somebody who, let's be honest,
13:55
Speaker 2: is just trying to stir the pot. This is someone
13:59
Speaker 2: trying to say something controversial to get attention. Successful. There's
14:03
Speaker 2: people talking about this person that would not have been
14:09
Speaker 2: including me. So that was a success. That was a
14:12
Speaker 2: win to some degree. By the way, another quick note
14:16
Speaker 2: when it comes to movies, if a movie comes out
14:22
Speaker 2: and it just happens to have a message in it
14:25
Speaker 2: about a family that has a baby and they're trying
14:27
Speaker 2: to protect the baby from the meat monster, that doesn't
14:31
Speaker 2: automatically make it a pro life movie. I did over
14:36
Speaker 2: the weekend for just a few minutes have my TV on,
14:39
Speaker 2: and I heard someone on the Fox network encouraging people
14:44
Speaker 2: to go watch Fantastic Four First Steps because it's a
14:48
Speaker 2: pro life movie and Hollywood is finally made a pro
14:52
Speaker 2: life movie. Look, you could take some pro life themes
14:57
Speaker 2: out of that if you want to, that's not really
15:00
Speaker 2: what they were going for. Don't kid yourself. I'm not
15:04
Speaker 2: discouraging you from seeing the movie. I saw the movie.
15:06
Speaker 2: I enjoyed it. I had a good time watching it.
15:10
Speaker 2: I like the Marvel movies. But encouraging people to go
15:13
Speaker 2: see it to support a pro life movie. That's not
15:17
Speaker 2: what it was, and that's not how it's gonna be understood.
15:23
Speaker 2: And just because by the way they use the word
15:25
Speaker 2: alien multiple times in the Superman movie doesn't automatically make
15:28
Speaker 2: it a pro illegal immigrant movie. I didn't get that
15:34
Speaker 2: message of either of those from either of those movies.
15:36
Speaker 2: That's not what I pulled from them. I went, Hey,
15:39
Speaker 2: it's a movie about Superman. This is a good time,
15:43
Speaker 2: this is fun. Hey, this is a movie about the
15:46
Speaker 2: Fantastic Four. Finally we're getting a more realistic MCU Marvel
15:52
Speaker 2: Universe version of the Fantastic Four. That's great, dare I
15:58
Speaker 2: say fantastic us. See, it doesn't automatically, And all you're
16:03
Speaker 2: doing by telling people to go watch it is encouraging
16:07
Speaker 2: people to go spend more money with Disney so Disney
16:10
Speaker 2: can make whatever they're making that your kids are watching.
16:13
Speaker 2: And it's not that I'm telling you to boycott it,
16:15
Speaker 2: because that's not what I'm doing at all. I enjoyed it.
16:17
Speaker 2: I watched the movie. I saw it. I saw both
16:21
Speaker 2: of those movies. But it doesn't automatically make it a
16:25
Speaker 2: pro life movie. All Right, there's themes in these movies,
16:29
Speaker 2: and I've told you before, you can't. I mentioned that
16:32
Speaker 2: I went back and rewatched the dark Night rises it had,
16:36
Speaker 2: and now that you watch it, you can't help but go, man,
16:39
Speaker 2: there's a little bit of a Trump thing to this.
16:42
Speaker 2: There's a little bit of a feel of that somewhere
16:45
Speaker 2: in the layers of this story. But this movie was
16:47
Speaker 2: made long before that. Was it predicting it? No, it's
16:51
Speaker 2: just an interesting take on it that you could go
16:53
Speaker 2: back and watch it and go wow. This could have
16:55
Speaker 2: been made with those themes intentionally now, but it wasn't
17:01
Speaker 2: made with those themes in mind. I didn't have anything
17:03
Speaker 2: to do with Trump. It was a Batman movie and
17:05
Speaker 2: I like that one too. I didn't come out of
17:08
Speaker 2: it thinking, man, oh man, this is a movie about
17:12
Speaker 2: blank issues. It's a movie. There are some issues to it. Sure.
17:18
Speaker 2: I didn't come out of it thinking I need to
17:20
Speaker 2: support or hate this movie because of whatever issues. So
17:25
Speaker 2: as Democrats are struggling to figure out whatever their messaging
17:30
Speaker 2: is going to be, whatever thing they're going to own
17:31
Speaker 2: moving forward, is they still have some of these loudmouth
17:36
Speaker 2: voices out there. They still have the voices saying you
17:40
Speaker 2: don't deserve to participate in society and the more they
17:43
Speaker 2: say it, the more a lot of Middle America is
17:47
Speaker 2: just not going to participate with them. Today's show brought
17:50
Speaker 2: to you by Columbus State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center,

18:44
Speaker 2: experience that you can get anywhere else. It's one of
18:47

20:19
Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage

Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
20:26
Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather, Sometimes
20:30
Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
20:33
Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
20:36
Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
20:38
Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
20:42
Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
20:45
Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
20:47
Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
20:49
Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
20:51
Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
20:54
Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
20:57
Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
20:59
Speaker 2: in side your garage and your garage door won't open
21:02
Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, And they do
21:05
Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh sixty five eight forty five hundred,
21:09
Speaker 2: seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred O
21:12
Speaker 2: dccolumbus dot com More West Carol Morning Show. Right after
21:16
Speaker 2: the break, we talked a little bit already about the
21:27
Speaker 2: fact that, yes, the pumpkin spice is coming soon. This
21:33
Speaker 2: isn't a pumpkin spice story. It is a coffee story though,
21:37
Speaker 2: and now that we're seeing kind of a boost and
21:41
Speaker 2: price of coffees and things when it comes to oom.
21:45
Speaker 2: You're talking in this particular case about iced coffee. And
21:49
Speaker 2: basically there's a report done on Delish which compared prices
21:54
Speaker 2: at nine different fast food and fast casual restaurants deciding
22:00
Speaker 2: the best price for an iced coffee. Burger King actually
22:05
Speaker 2: tops the list with a small iced coffee for a
22:07
Speaker 2: dollar ninety nine. Wendy's next with a small colber for
22:10
Speaker 2: two forty nine. Then McDonald's Duncan charging five p thirty
22:15
Speaker 2: one for a small iced coffee, and that is at
22:19
Speaker 2: the higher end of the list. All right, So there
22:24
Speaker 2: is a there was a time the thought of owning
22:29
Speaker 2: a house or a home was part of that great
22:31
Speaker 2: American dream for every generation. It's not there for gen
22:34
Speaker 2: Z though. New survey by home insurance company Ken found
22:38
Speaker 2: forty two percent of gen Z homeowners have regrets about
22:43
Speaker 2: their home purchase. That's twenty seven percent higher than millennials
22:47
Speaker 2: or gen X. The reason for the buyer's remorse the
22:51
Speaker 2: high price of mortgages, unexpected expenses like maintenance, insurance and
22:55
Speaker 2: property taxes which aren't always considered when planning a budget,
22:59
Speaker 2: and for those who think they're saving by buying a
23:02
Speaker 2: fixer upper, they often underestimate the money and time required
23:05
Speaker 2: for those repairs and renovations. Another survey by open Door
23:10
Speaker 2: found an even higher level of home buyer's remorse, with
23:13
Speaker 2: ninety four percent of gen Z and eighty six percent
23:15
Speaker 2: of millennials immediately regretting their purchase and then selling their
23:19
Speaker 2: home not long after buying it. Experts say the trend
23:24
Speaker 2: reflects a broader crisis in the housing affordability, and some
23:28
Speaker 2: prices and mortgages rates are still high. Younger buyers struggling
23:31
Speaker 2: to make homeownership work, many reconsidering whether renting or co
23:35
Speaker 2: living might be a better fit for now. Speaking of
23:40
Speaker 2: generational fund the the gen Z stare you've heard about
23:45
Speaker 2: and we've talked about here, well, millennials are now getting
23:48
Speaker 2: called out for their millennial nod so the gen Z
23:53
Speaker 2: group being accused of having that blank stare. While in
23:56
Speaker 2: the workplace, Millennials are being criticized for their overuse of
23:59
Speaker 2: the head nod during meetings and conversations, and this is
24:04
Speaker 2: just a communication thing difference in generations. Millennials were taught
24:08
Speaker 2: that nods and smiles show warmth, agreement, and engagement, and
24:13
Speaker 2: gen Z sees it as inauthentic and that it's more
24:17
Speaker 2: performative and they don't like it. So if you're a
24:21
Speaker 2: millennial and the gen Z folks are getting irritated by
24:24
Speaker 2: nodding your head, I would encourage you to just keep
24:26
Speaker 2: nodding your head at them. That's just what I would do.
24:31
Speaker 2: Over the past few weeks, the Tea app this is
24:34
Speaker 2: the app we talked about a couple times. It lets
24:36
Speaker 2: women review dates with men, made some waves, angered some people,
24:40
Speaker 2: and then it got hacked. It should surprise nobody that
24:44
Speaker 2: a similar app will be launched that allows men to
24:47
Speaker 2: review their dates with women. The Tea on Her app
24:52
Speaker 2: as quickly risen to the top of the Apple Store
24:55
Speaker 2: charts and already having some security issues exposed to private
25:00
Speaker 2: chats personal data of thousands of male users. So basically,
25:08
Speaker 2: if your gossiping about people on an app, You're probably
25:13
Speaker 2: gonna have all your stuff spilled out for everybody. That's
25:15
Speaker 2: what we should take away from this. So, according to
25:19
Speaker 2: some number crunchers at the Highway Lost Data Institute, some
25:23
Speaker 2: very specific cars are getting targeted by car thieves. They
25:27
Speaker 2: found that the Chevy Camaro ZL one, which retails for
25:30
Speaker 2: about seventy five grand, tops the list with a theft
25:33
Speaker 2: rate of thirty nine times higher than average. The Accura
25:37
Speaker 2: TLX four wheel drive, which is a forty six thousand
25:42
Speaker 2: dollars sports today in is number two on the list,
25:45
Speaker 2: stolen at a rate about twenty one times higher than average.
25:48
Speaker 2: The standard basic Chevy Camaro was the third most commonly
25:51
Speaker 2: stolen model. It seems thieves are on the prow for
25:55
Speaker 2: vehicles that are relatively expensive and relatively powerful, pretty much
25:59
Speaker 2: more cars and pickup trucks, so just keep that in mind.
26:04
