  Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: your day when you're listening to The West Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Monday morning, twenty second day of September. I'm Wes, thanks
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: for joining me, kicking off another week here together after
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: a weekend of ceremonies honoring the life of Charlie Kirk.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: I don't think I said it enough here.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: I've certainly said it to several people that you know
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: I've talked to at least about Charlie Kirk's death and
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: the reaction to it. Let him grieve. I don't understand.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: I don't understand this need to try to take something
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: away from someone that is grief. Are we becoming a
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: society where you're not allowed to grieve someone based on
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: one thing that they did or one thing that they said. Understand,
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: this is about politics. That's exclusively what this is about.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: We live in a society where people will defend Michael Vick, right,
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: They'll defend Michael Vick, They'll defend.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: Louis c.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: K There's people defending Bill Cosby. There's people that are
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: defending all sorts of horrible things Bill Clinton. And that's politics.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: There's so many things that we've decided now that we're
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: just gonna look the other way on We're just gonna say, eh,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: we're just gonna look the other way on that. But
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: let a political figure on the right be assassinated in
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: front of a crowd of people and people suddenly become
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: it's like blues clues. We're gonna dig deep. We're gonna
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: find everything that this person said that's even remotely questionable,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: and if we can find a way to make it questionable,
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: we will. Even if it's not, even if you look
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: at it in the full context and go, oh, well
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: what he said there really wasn't that bad, we're gonna
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: make it worse. I saw one post in particular that
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: somebody made that friend of mine, and it was again,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I think it's this whole we have this butt mentality
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: about it. And I truly believe that this particular friend
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: and as many others, and I don't know about this
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: particular I don't know.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: I don't want to. I don't want to jump into
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: their heads.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: I just know that there are people that maybe deep
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: down want to feel okay about maybe their first reaction,
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: maybe their first reaction was like yeah, good, And I
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: don't know, I don't want to I don't want to
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: put that on somebody if that's not where they were.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: But I do think there are many people who did
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: that that their first reaction was to celebrate, but they
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: didn't want to be those people that were publicly celebrating
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: because they realized, maybe they realized they could lose their job.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Maybe they just realized that that's just evil, it's awful,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: and they wanted to feel okay about the fact that.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: Maybe that was their first reaction. I don't know.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: I don't want to presume anything about anybody.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: I just know that.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: In this particular post that a friend of mine shared,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: there was one one of the breakdowns on horrible things
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: that Charlie Kirk said, and it was the you know,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: incredibly racist replacement theory that's been discussed.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: And you know, that's.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Something that you know, five years ago people would have
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: definitely said, oh, it's so racist to think that. And
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: there's still people obviously who say that. But that's one
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: of those things that it's a conspiracy theory that has
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: slowly been getting proven, and there were statistics to prove
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: that during this past election that many of the block
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: black Trump supporters that have crossed the lines to support
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: Trump felt that they were the ones that were being replaced.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: There were interviews, there were studies, and there were many
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: black Trump supporters for this past election that said, we
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: felt like we were the ones being replaced in this
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: whole replacement theory thing. So I don't know, and if
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: you're not familiar with it, it's just the idea that
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Democrats would allow. Now, the original theory was that, oh,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: they're going to allow non white people to come in
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: the country to replace the white population and take control
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: of it. Look taking racist side of it, because obviously
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: a lot of Black Americans feel that way that they
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: were the ones being pushed aside for folks that were allowed.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: To come in the country.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: People are looking for explanations about why the border was
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: opened for four years, why so many people were just
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: allowed to come in, and if you're going to start
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: ruling out things that sound like they could be true
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: just for the sake of being able to call somebody racist,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: and that's really what it's about. It's about finding that
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: way to brand someone with something and say that they're racist.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: Look, I think.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: If someone on the left wants to give us an
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: honest and genuine explanation for why they left the border open.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: I think everybody would listen. I know folks on the
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: right would love to hear what it is. They'd love
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: to know why the border was just left wide open.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: I'd love to hear an explanation. I think an honest
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: and genuine explanation would be it's long overdue, and why
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: does it happen when we have a Democrat president but
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: not when we have a Republican I don't know. We've
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: had some Republican presidents that have certainly been guilty of
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: it as well. I'd like to know the answer. I'd
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: like to know why we just leave it open sometimes,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: what the strategy is, and if people aren't taking a
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: minute to realize people are coming in the country, they're
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: being moved into certain states, they're being moved into certain
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: day tricks to get more representation. That's all part of it.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: By the time the census rolls around, it's not a
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: coincidence that people are.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Saying, we're gonna get back to you.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: You check in with us, you come in the country illegally,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: you check in with us, We're going to check back
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: in with you. After a census is done. It's not
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: a coincidence. We're gonna give you time to have a baby.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: If you want to do that, maybe get married, then
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: we'll talk to you. Then we're not supposed to point
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: this stuff out or else be potentially labeled racist. I
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: guess anyway, Look, you could dig through comments made by
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: I think just about anyone, and if you dig deep enough,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: you're gonna find something that someone would find offensive. Let
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: people mourn, let people grieve. I think, however along the
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: grieving process takes it was a political assassination. There are
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: many who believe this to be, you know, the first
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Christian martyr of this era. I know some people who
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: took offense to that.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: Why.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, by definition we're talking about a martyr anyway,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: this is someone who was very outspoken about their beliefs.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: If you think that they couldn't possibly be a Christian
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: because they have different political opinions and views of you,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: then you know that's your problem, that's not his. You're
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: really digging in that deep. And I just wonder, are
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: we becoming a society where at some point someone's going
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: to get on social media and they're going to say,
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: you know, hey, my uncle Charlie passed away, and I'm
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: really sad that Uncle Charlie passed away and that their
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: friends are going to go. Now, before we tell you condolences,
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: we're going to need a list of the political beliefs
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: of uncle Charlie. If he's a deeply Christian person, we're
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: not going to be able to tell you condolences. If
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: he's if he voted for Trump, we can't tell you condolences.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: What are his views he was on the following five issues?
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: Let's start with abortion, Like, if we're gonna have to
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: start doing this before we can just tell somebody, hey,
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry for your loss. It feels like that's where
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: we're headed, isn't.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: It all right?
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: The Jimmy Kimmel thing started to go down late last week,
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: and I want to talk about that a little bit.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: I know a lot of people have discussed at great
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: length Jimmy Kimmel and his suspension, by some calling it
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: a termination. Look, I'll just say there's a few things
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: that are at play here. I don't think it's okay
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: if the government decides they're going to step in and
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: silence someone for their views, just like I didn't think
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: it was okay when the decision was made to take
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: President Trump off of Twitter.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: That's nuts.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: I don't know where that outrage from the left was
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: when that happened. I just do think it's important that
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: we remember that when you work for a company like
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Disney ABC, if they decide for whatever reason that they're
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: going to terminate you, then they're able to do that,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: and that's not a protected free speech thing. Jimmy Kimmel
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: has a long history of saying very nasty things on
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: a comedy show that had no comedic ties whatsoever. There's
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: nothing funny about a lot of the things that he said,
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: many of them untrue. In this particular case, he accused
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Republicans of trying to make Charlie Kirk's killer into a
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: leftist when in reality it was a Maga Trump supporter,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: which wasn't true. We all know that not to be true.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: But Jimmy Kimmel wanted everybody to buy it. He wanted everybody.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Jimmy Kimmell wanted everybody to buy that. He wanted everybody
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: sold on the this idea that that's what the truth was,
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: and it wasn't the truth.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: And it comes from a really dark place.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: And it also tells us that when you are part
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: of this movement on the left, you're comfortable just lying
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: to people and feeling like everyone's going to have your back,
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: that people are going to support your lie, they're going
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: to just they're going to take your lie and they're
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: going to run with it because we have a very
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: friendly media to the left, and it's a problem. This
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: is why when you take a public broadcast company like
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: ABC or CBS or NBC, when you're talking about having
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: a license to broadcast that is monitored and supervised by
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: the FCC, they're supposed to be making sure that people
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: are unbiased. This outrage that we went through over public
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: broadcasting paid for by Americans citizens to be a very
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: far left organization, to be biased to the left, to
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: be hateful to the right. And then people get confused
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: when they say, well, they're.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: Taking this away. How can they take this away?
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: That's how they can take it away, because it's our
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: money that's paying for things that we don't reflect and
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: we don't represent. And I've done many shows, many conversations
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: about companies like Disney, because there's been a general attitude
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: from Disney for a long time that basically says, what
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: are you going to do not watch our product. You're
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: not going to come to our theme parks, You're not
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: going to watch our Star Wars movies.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: We bought all the stuff that you love, so now
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: you're stuck with us.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: So if you want to watch a Captain America movie,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: if you want to watch an Avengers movie, you're stuck
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: with us. You want to watch a Class Disney movie, Yep,
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: you're gonna have to give us some money. And guess what,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: We're gonna give it to Democrat candidates. That's what we do. Haha,
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: suck it. That's what we're gonna do to you. So
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: just deal with that. That's where they are, and that's
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: where they've been. That's where many of these media companies
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: have been. This is where the bread and butter is
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: as far as their politics, this is what they know.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: They know this to be the case. So if anything,
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: maybe we should just be shocked that they actually did
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: something about Jimmy Kimmel. Now they've done things in the past.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: They suspended what be Goldberg If you remember what be
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: Goldworks had some really insensitive things about Jewish people, and
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: they took her off the air. I don't remember how
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: long they took her off.
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: The air for a while. They gave her a little vacation.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: She came back, which is probably what's gonna happen with
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Jimmy Kimmel. At some point he's gonna come back. Is
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: he gonna apologize? No, I don't think so. Not a
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: real apology. We'll get some version of an apology maybe
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: if they let him back. But the decision ultimately came
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: from Disney, and it ultimately came from the two companies
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: that own most of the ABC stations around the country,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: and they decided they were going to take him off
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: the air. They weren't going to air a show, and
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: that was enough for Disney to say, Okay, we're not
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: going to make the show if it's not going to air. Now,
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: the accusation is that the FCC or the Trump administration
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: put pressure on those two companies, at least one of
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: the companies, to take Jimmy Kimmel off the air. No
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: evidence of that. There's been no connection. We haven't seen
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: anything that connected those dots. But people are allowed to
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: say it because again we've got a friendly media on
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: the left. They'll just support it and run with it.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: But again, no one upset when Trump was taken off Twitter,
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: not on the left, they thought it was funny. Jimmy
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Kimmel certainly thought it was funny. Stephen Colbert certainly thought
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: it was funny. Stephen Colbert's show, losing forty million dollars
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: a year, has an end game in May. They're taking
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: him off from CBS, They're changing whatever they're going to
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: do in their late night lineup because it's not profitable.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: Jimmy Kimmel is still profitable, but not like it used
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: to be.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: And the speculation is that Disney feels like very soon
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: that won't be profitable. It's not making the money that
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: it used to it's not getting the audience that.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: It used to get.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: So I would have issues with someone having their First
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Amendment rights violated, but not by a private company. All
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: these people who've lost their jobs because of comments that
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: they've made, those companies have a right to do that.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: And if a company doesn't have a right to do it,
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: they probably aren't firing the person for doing it, not
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: saying what they've said. And that's the reality of where
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: we are. Want to talk just for a minute about
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: the actual comments Jimmy Kimmel made because he says that
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: Republicans tried to make sure that the accused shooter of
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk got to say alleged and accused. I gotta
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: make sure to say that this is retroactive all the
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: way at the beginning, he says that they wanted to
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: make sure that his killer I was quoting him kinda
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: se might quoting him. They want to make sure that
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: folks on the right know that it wasn't one of them,
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: because they wanted to try to brand the accused shooter
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: of being a leftist when in reality he was a
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: maga Republican. And let's take a minute and talk about that,
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: because that is something that happens now. When someone gets shot,
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: there's a mass shooting, a school shooting, or whatever it is,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: there is a moment on both sides where people go,
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: all right, what's the story on the shooter? Tell us
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: what the story is on the shooter. We need to
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: know the attacker, even the Paul Pelosi attacker, we need
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: to know, we need to know what the story was.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: We're even getting mixed stories about the shooting in Minnesota,
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: the murder there, when in reality, and we've heard this repeatedly,
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: a legislator was killed for voting with Republicans on an
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: issue about immigration. But what we're hearing is how this
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: was a far right person that was killed, a woman,
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: a legislator, and we're not even talking about her, we're
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: not even discussing her. But the reality here is, yes,
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: there is that moment anytime there's a shooting, sadly, both
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: sides go, oh, please tell me, it wasn't one of ours.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: That's pretty horrible. I think both sides are pretty guilty
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: of it. Not everybody, but both sides are guilty of
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: it to some degree. And the reality here.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Is because.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: When you say, Jimmy Kimmel, to say it wasn't one
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: of us, definitely makes it about race and politics, right,
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: And I think both sides are guilty now of going
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: it wasn't one of us, so we can at least
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: be a little happy about that. I do think both
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: sides are guilty of that right to some degree, had
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: those moments where we just go, oh, please tell me,
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: please tell me it wasn't dot. And then now we
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: got folks on the left that have tried to exaggerate
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: the weapon because again, this is what they do. A
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: hunting rifle. Single like bolt action rifle, not a semi automatic,
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: not a machine gun, not an ar fifteen of those things.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: Single bolt hunting rifle belonged to his grandfather. That's what
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: we saw in the text messages belonged to his grandfather.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: He wanted to get the gun back for his grandfather,
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: and those text messages submitted into evidence. But I've seen
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: activists on the left, we gotta get these guns, gotta
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: get these machine guns off the streets. Single bolt, one shot,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: a hunting rifle, that's what it was. There's there's been
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: no one pushing legislation to get rid of hunting rifles,
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: single bolt action guns. None, No one's been pushing for
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know. There probably have been people pushing for that,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: let's be real. But I've also seen that. And again,
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: when you got a friendly media that's ready to take
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: your story and run with it and help support it,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: you can say anything. You can say anything at all,
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: and you're gonna probably be able to get away with
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: it unless you're Jimmy Kimmel. And let's be honest. Suspension
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: deserved for being misleading, Suspension deserved for the celebrations he's
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: had about people being fired about Roseanne being fired about
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Trump being taken off of Twitter. It's deserved, if nothing.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: Else for that.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: Today's show brought to you by Columbus State University's Coca
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center, Inspiring and educating the youth and
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: future STEM leaders and STEM career holders that really of
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: all ages. I mean they do it for school age
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: kids as school age kids visit the Coca Cola Space
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Science Center, but they also do it through their university
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics, and the
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: careers in space and STEM fields are booming right now,
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: and you can learn more about maybe getting your degree
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: on their website CCSSC. While you're there, also check out
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: some of their upcoming programs. They've got this incredible collaboration
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: that they do with the Schwobe School of Music from
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Columbus State University called Music under the Dome. It's unlike
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: any concert experience that you can get anywhere else. It's
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: one of those things that when you're watching it in Columbus, Georgia,
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia. I mean,
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: this is a major city attraction that happens right here
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: in Columbus inside the Planetarium at the Coca Cola Space
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Science Center and the new season of Music under the Dome.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: Check out upcoming dates for the shows, and also check
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up. Where you
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: can get outside. Sometimes you do it at the Cocola
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere outside the
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: city lights. You don't want any light interference, and you
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: can do that as well. Upcoming Astronomy Night events also
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: on their website. It's CCSSC, as Sean Crusan says Charlie
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org. I just remind you that
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: it stands for Coca Cola Space Science Center CCSSC dot org.

  Speaker 2: Today's show brought to you by Overhead Door Company of Columbus.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: For all of your garage door needs, commercial or residential.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's time for. It's
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: always good to get maintenance on anything that has parts
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: that move and have electronics. The folks at Overhead Door
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Company of Columbus can take care of squaring that away
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: for you, and while they're there you can always ask
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: them questions about some of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: like to make to your garage door. Maybe your curb
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: appeal isn't quite what you want it to be, and
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: you need some repair work done to the outside door.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: Maybe you need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: it's making a noise when your garage door opens and closes.
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's some sort of installation issue that you've got
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: with colder or warm or weather. Sometimes that stuff gets
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: where you'd like to add a screen door to your
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: garage door system that you can put down and you
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: can use your garage space as a sort.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: Of outdoor but indoor.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: You know, if you like to work on your own
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: cars in there, or maybe you just want a little
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: man cavid you'd like to be able to open the
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in. They
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: can do that for you as well, and again they
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: of having your car trapped inside your garage and your
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: And they do those as well. Seven oh six Thtory

  Speaker 2: Carol Morning.
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: Show right after the break. Well, we've all been dealing with.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Nastiness on social media. I mean it's not new, just
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: seems like it's been really amped up the last I
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: don't know, a couple of weeks or.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: So for some reason.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: Well, there's a new study out of Cornell University that
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: says the best way to deal with keyboard trolls is
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: with kindness instead of anger. For the study, people were
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: shown rude comments on a fake video site and different
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: types of replies. Some are harsh and hurtful, others calm
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: and constructive. Turns out, the kind replies got way more love,
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: whether that be thumbs up or up votes or whatever,
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: and made people feel better about the community overall, and
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: even better, they say, when kindness came first, it kind
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: of set the tone and made everyone less interested in
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: piling on with angry responses. It's interesting, I think, certainly
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: this is kind of the thing that many of us
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: have thought for a long time. People are more prone
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: to do I think face to face, right, I mean,
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: there's still people who are nasty to you face to face,
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: but it shouldn't be a surprise to us that being
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: kind to people, although in many cases, probably outside this study,
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: if you say something kind, people are going to start
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: piling on you. That's the other sad reality of all
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: of it. They'll come after you for being kind, for
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: being weak. It's like driving in Atlanta traffic with your
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: indicator on, with your blinker on, and you want to
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: move over. They see that as a sign of weakness.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: They don't see it as a request. They see it
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: as I'm not letting this guy over. I'm not letting
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: this gal over. All right, seems like moms are more
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: likely than dads to hear from their adult kids regularly.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: A new survey found that moms are twice as likely
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: as dads to hear from their adult kids multiple times
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: a day twenty two percent for moms, ten percent for day.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Moms also get more daily photo updates than dads and
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: that's twenty percent to fourteen percent, and say that they
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: help them feel emotionally closer to their kids. No surprise,
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: Texting is the go to method for staying in touch.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: Sixty seven percent of kids reaching out to their parents
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: that way, video calls, DMS, trail behind and phone calls
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: or emails which are practically extinct in family life. Now,
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know about that. I mean, maybe practically extinct,
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: and it probably depends on the age group of the
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: people involved in this particular survey. But I had I
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: had a nice phone conversation It wasn't video but phone
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: conversation Saturday morning.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: With my mom over coffee.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: We had our coffee together on the phone. So I
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: don't think it's completely I mean, I know this is
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: virtually extinct, but I do think people still try to
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: do that.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: Apparently, your shoes should never ever be in your bedroom,
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: and it's health reasons. Medical experts suggest that dirt, bacteria,
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: and allergens on the shoes mess with your breathing all
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: night if left.
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: Near your bed.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: There are well being reasons keeping shoes out of the
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: bedroom creates a calmer, healthier place that supports better rest
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: and relaxation. And then there's also the smell. Strong odors
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: like stinky shoes can keep our bodies from reaching deep
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: sleep and activate stress responses even though our head's on
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: a pillow. To solve the problem, we're supposed to create
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: a drop zone outside the bedroom, put your shoes in
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: a washable bin, preferably covered to help avoid all of
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: the nasties and dirt and things smells that would otherwise
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: make our special moments in the bedroom miserable.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: So not in the bedroom.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: If they have to be in the bedroom and close
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: them in something, I guess, I don't know. We try
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: to keep ours both. I know not everybody keeps them by
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: the door, but in the you know, why are you
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: walking in the house with them anyway? Just put them
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: by the door, take them off, put them by the door.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: The National Toy Hall of Fame just released its twenty
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: twenty five finalists list, and it's a little quirky. It
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: includes board games like Trivial Pursuit, the Spirograph, and Snow
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah Snow. Public can vote until September twenty fourth, So
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: just a few more days to vote on the nominees
• 27:28
