- 1:21Speaker 2: get your tickets. A lot of talk about Linda McMahon
- 1:27Speaker 2: now as the President has tapped her for education Linda
- 1:33Speaker 2: McMahon education Secretary. How about that? And it's interesting the
- 1:39Speaker 2: timing of this just for me personally, because I'm only
- 1:44Speaker 2: just now getting around to watching the Mister McMahon docuseriies
- 1:49Speaker 2: on Netflix. I had not. I'd been like taking a
- 1:55Speaker 2: little break from really spending much time on Netflix, just
- 1:58Speaker 2: a little bit here and there. But Cobra Kai's I
- 2:02Speaker 2: guess the middle of the second a final season, second
- 2:06Speaker 2: part of it came out and I thought that was
- 2:09Speaker 2: the end, and I was watching it and I thought,
- 2:11Speaker 2: I'm gonna do one more episode and just be up
- 2:13Speaker 2: late tonight and I'll be done with it. And this
- 2:15Speaker 2: was over the weekend, and then I did that, and
- 2:17Speaker 2: then it got to the end and it said, you know,
- 2:20Speaker 2: the final episodes coming soon, and I thought I stayed
- 2:23Speaker 2: up for like essentially a second mid season finale, and
- 2:29Speaker 2: that was a waste. I thought. I was watching the
- 2:31Speaker 2: last episode, I was all gearing up for it to
- 2:33Speaker 2: be over, and when it ended, I thought, this is garbage.
- 2:36Speaker 2: Oh there's more, there's more. Good. What a garbage way
- 2:40Speaker 2: to have ended it if they had just stopped it there.
- 2:42Speaker 2: But that wasn't the end. So I was watching that
- 2:45Speaker 2: and then I thought, well, I need to do this
- 2:47Speaker 2: mister McMahon series that a lot of people have been
- 2:50Speaker 2: talking about. And I'm a little behind obviously on that,
- 2:53Speaker 2: but so the timing interesting on that, and I'm not
- 2:57Speaker 2: done with the with the mister McMahon series. I think
- 3:01Speaker 2: that isn't that what it's called about? Vince McMahon, And
- 3:05Speaker 2: you know, Linda McMahon obviously is part of his story.
- 3:07Speaker 2: That was his wife, and she was part of the
- 3:12Speaker 2: the WWE I guess it was still WWF at that time,
- 3:16Speaker 2: and you know, they go through a lot of the
- 3:19Speaker 2: different aspects of storylines and things for wrestling. Let me
- 3:22Speaker 2: just as a side note, I am a sort of
- 3:27Speaker 2: the Forest Gump of wrestling in my own way. Over
- 3:33Speaker 2: the years, I have witnessed things that are sort of
- 3:38Speaker 2: iconic historic moments in wrestling. I've been there for these things.
- 3:44Speaker 2: I've kind of stumbled my way into some cool things.
- 3:47Speaker 2: I've stumbled my way into some events. I've stumbled my
- 3:50Speaker 2: way into areas while backstage. A couple of things of
- 3:54Speaker 2: note that I could just mention that I was a
- 3:57Speaker 2: part of. I witnessed the night that Stone Cold. Steve Austin,
- 4:06Speaker 2: you know, one of the I mean, you could make
- 4:09Speaker 2: a case. And I you know a friend who was
- 4:11Speaker 2: just talking about this kind of recently, about the Mount
- 4:13Speaker 2: Rushmore of wrestling, and he was going through different people
- 4:17Speaker 2: and he asked me my Mount Rushmore and I told
- 4:20Speaker 2: him who. But Steve Austin wasn't in my four. But
- 4:25Speaker 2: you could make a case that Steve Austin, you know,
- 4:29Speaker 2: could be in the conversation. Maybe he's not in your
- 4:31Speaker 2: top four if you were doing a you know, Mount
- 4:35Speaker 2: Rushmore's four, and that's about people sometimes go I'll do five,
- 4:38Speaker 2: and it's like that's not Mount Rushmore. Mount Rushmore's four,
- 4:41Speaker 2: that's it. But you can make a case if there
- 4:44Speaker 2: were ten, Steve Austin would be in there. I mean,
- 4:47Speaker 2: he's one of those guys the night that he quit
- 4:51Speaker 2: the WWE. By that point it was with that name.
- 4:56Speaker 2: I witnessed him quitting. I walked up on him to
- 5:00Speaker 2: telling the guy that he was quitting. He still had
- 5:02Speaker 2: a match to do, and he did his match he
- 5:06Speaker 2: was supposed to do, and then that was it. And
- 5:08Speaker 2: he's telling the guy, I mean, I can't say I mean,
- 5:12Speaker 2: I guess here, I can say whatever, but I'm not
- 5:15Speaker 2: going to do it. But he used a lot of
- 5:17Speaker 2: very adult language to tell this guy off, and he
- 5:20Speaker 2: was really putting him and he was just letting into him.
- 5:23Speaker 2: I don't know who the other guy was. I wasn't
- 5:24Speaker 2: really paying attention, but I witnessed that. I saw that
- 5:29Speaker 2: there were three people in the room, Steve Austin, whoever
- 5:33Speaker 2: the guy was, he was cussing out and then me
- 5:35Speaker 2: like I saw it happen. True story. I mean, get
- 5:40Speaker 2: Steve Austin on the phone, we can talk about it.
- 5:42Speaker 2: He'll tell you I was there. I saw it Forrest
- 5:46Speaker 2: Gump moment, right. I also, you know, just another little
- 5:51Speaker 2: side note, and they talk about this a little bit
- 5:54Speaker 2: touch on it in the Mister McMahon series. The Whole
- 5:59Speaker 2: leg See of Hulk Hogan beating the Iron Chic. Why
- 6:03Speaker 2: the Iron Chic was the villain that they the you know,
- 6:06Speaker 2: the h for Hogan to beat and ultimately win. Shek
- 6:12Speaker 2: was the ultimate heel, you know, being supposedly this you know,
- 6:16Speaker 2: Iranian anti USA guy. He wasn't. I mean Iranian, yes,
- 6:21Speaker 2: but not anti us of a But and he and Hogan,
- 6:27Speaker 2: you know, had b for years, largely coming from the
- 6:31Speaker 2: direction of the Chic, And I knew both of those guys.
- 6:35Speaker 2: I was around. I was with Hogan one day and
- 6:38Speaker 2: I told him about some things with the Chic, personal
- 6:41Speaker 2: things that were going on, and I said, you ought
- 6:44Speaker 2: to call him, and he said, yeah, let me call him.
- 6:45Speaker 2: And I was part of those two patching things up,
- 6:50Speaker 2: burying the hatchet, if you will again forrest coump moment
- 6:53Speaker 2: for me. So I find. But I've never been a
- 6:56Speaker 2: huge wrestling fan. When I was a kid, I watched
- 6:59Speaker 2: it some maybe teenage years watched it, but not I
- 7:03Speaker 2: was never really really into it. I appreciate it for
- 7:07Speaker 2: what it is. I just was never just a huge
- 7:10Speaker 2: fan of it. I had other interests. But I've always
- 7:13Speaker 2: followed it enough to know who most of the players are.
- 7:17Speaker 2: And I've found this docuseries to be quite interesting. Maybe
- 7:21Speaker 2: the most interesting thing about it for me is the
- 7:25Speaker 2: fact that it sort of plays into a lot of
- 7:30Speaker 2: things that we're doing now with politics. Hear me out
- 7:33Speaker 2: on this. The idea that the thing that you wanted
- 7:39Speaker 2: to get when it came to wrestling and these storylines
- 7:43Speaker 2: that they put together and which wrestlers were ultimately going
- 7:46Speaker 2: to become big stars is you know, who had the heat,
- 7:53Speaker 2: who had the heat, and who could bring out emotions?
- 7:58Speaker 2: And that was the formula, you know, because some people
- 8:01Speaker 2: just came along and they instantly had it. Hul Cogan
- 8:03Speaker 2: had it. That's why he became the megastar, by the way,
- 8:07Speaker 2: one hundred percent on the Mount Rushmore. And if you
- 8:09Speaker 2: don't include him, you're not doing it right. Sorry, your
- 8:14Speaker 2: Mount Rushmore is wrong if hul Cogan isn't on there.
- 8:17Speaker 2: But anyway, and Rick Flair got to have him on
- 8:20Speaker 2: there too. But you got guys like that that they
- 8:23Speaker 2: just they bring the heat right away. You know, they
- 8:26Speaker 2: have something about them that is going to draw eyes. Okay,
- 8:31Speaker 2: but this idea of you know what, you're going to
- 8:34Speaker 2: tap into some element of emotion. You got to tap
- 8:37Speaker 2: on something, whether you get somebody to hate you, you
- 8:39Speaker 2: get somebody to love you. Back in those old wrestling
- 8:42Speaker 2: days when I watched as a kid, it was faces
- 8:45Speaker 2: and heels, good guys and bad guys. Wrestling changed a
- 8:49Speaker 2: lot over the years, and it got to a point where,
- 8:51Speaker 2: and they talk about this in the series, you get
- 8:53Speaker 2: to a point where it's like everybody's ultimately a heel.
- 8:56Speaker 2: You got these sort of anti hero people that are
- 8:58Speaker 2: in there, and you know, the Steve Austin's who's the
- 9:02Speaker 2: good guy, but he's really not a good guy. That's
- 9:05Speaker 2: the gimmick. That's what works for it. We've seen this
- 9:09Speaker 2: play out in our politics. We've seen this play out,
- 9:13Speaker 2: you know, in a number of scenarios in our politics.
- 9:16Speaker 2: You get somebody who like a Donald Trump. People like him,
- 9:22Speaker 2: but a lot of people who even voted for him
- 9:24Speaker 2: would go, I don't know, and I like him, but
- 9:26Speaker 2: I like his politics. I like what he wants to
- 9:30Speaker 2: do with the country. I like that he's got the heat, right,
- 9:35Speaker 2: I mean that's him. Obama had the heat. You know,
- 9:39Speaker 2: that was just who he was. He had that charisma,
- 9:41Speaker 2: he had that pizzazz straight out of the gate. You
- 9:45Speaker 2: knew that. But you go to this past election and
- 9:48Speaker 2: you go, you didn't. It was you know, people that
- 9:50Speaker 2: didn't have you know, you had Trump who had the
- 9:54Speaker 2: heat still and kind of I mean, there's elements of
- 9:59Speaker 2: that anti hero in there. He wasn't quite Steve Austin,
- 10:02Speaker 2: but kind of in that vein, right. People either either
- 10:04Speaker 2: liked him or you hated him. But the people who
- 10:08Speaker 2: liked him maybe understood, you know, not the nicest guy
- 10:12Speaker 2: in the world. Maybe a lot of ego, he's got
- 10:14Speaker 2: some character flaws, but hey, he was a good president
- 10:19Speaker 2: for four years. He did what he promised he was
- 10:21Speaker 2: gonna do. I think there were elements of that. And
- 10:24Speaker 2: then versus you know, a candidate and Harris, who you know,
- 10:27Speaker 2: didn't have the heat, certainly not maybe just kind of
- 10:31Speaker 2: wanted to be a good guy. Hey, I'm gonna be
- 10:34Speaker 2: nice and then at the end, I'm gonna be really
- 10:37Speaker 2: nasty and it just didn't work. Didn't work at all.
- 10:41Speaker 2: So there's elements of that. I thought it was kind
- 10:43Speaker 2: of fascinating thinking about that how that plays into our
- 10:48Speaker 2: politics now, how this idea of emotion because as they want,
- 10:52Speaker 2: they want an emotion from you. They want you to
- 10:54Speaker 2: love him, they want you to hate the other one,
- 10:56Speaker 2: they want you to be afraid. They want you to think, oh,
- 11:00Speaker 2: world's going to end if your candidate doesn't win. Your
- 11:04Speaker 2: loyalty has always been with, you know, this type of candidate.
- 11:08Speaker 2: So why wouldn't your loyalty still be with this type
- 11:11Speaker 2: of candidate. I don't know. I thought it was interesting,
- 11:14Speaker 2: especially with the timing of Linda McMahon getting the NOD
- 11:19Speaker 2: for Education Secretary. A lot of talk about school vouchers,
- 11:23Speaker 2: A lot of talk about school vouchers. This is something
- 11:27Speaker 2: that has been a topic for quite some time, and
- 11:31Speaker 2: some of the arguments and complaints are, you know, if
- 11:34Speaker 2: you're taking money away from public schools to move them
- 11:39Speaker 2: over to private schools, then the public schools will suffer. Well,
- 11:43Speaker 2: the money for the public schools was supposed to go
- 11:47Speaker 2: for maybe your student to go to the public school.
- 11:50Speaker 2: So if you decide you'd rather your student be in
- 11:53Speaker 2: a private school, then no, it's not directly going to
- 11:57Speaker 2: suffer because that public school is going to be providing
- 12:02Speaker 2: education for your child. Your child will be at another
- 12:07Speaker 2: school where there'll be that money will be directed towards that.
- 12:11Speaker 2: Unless there's something here that we're all missing, and maybe
- 12:13Speaker 2: there is, maybe there's a bookkeeping thing here that I
- 12:15Speaker 2: don't quite understand. I suspect there may be I suspect
- 12:20Speaker 2: there may be some bookkeeping things that would make us
- 12:22Speaker 2: all roll our eyes. But I don't know how that
- 12:24Speaker 2: works exactly. And I'm talking specifically on the national level,
- 12:30Speaker 2: the state level. I'm not saying anything about our local
- 12:33Speaker 2: school district here where we do the show. That's not
- 12:36Speaker 2: I'm not making any sort of veiled accusations or anything.
- 12:40Speaker 2: I'm just talking in general, because when you hear people panic,
- 12:45Speaker 2: and you hear people say, well, but people who are
- 12:47Speaker 2: going to private school, they can afford to pay for
- 12:52Speaker 2: their kid to go to private school. See, that's one
- 12:54Speaker 2: of those want your cake and eat it too, Like
- 12:57Speaker 2: you send your kid to private school, but send your
- 12:59Speaker 2: money to our school, send your money to public schools,
- 13:04Speaker 2: but you send your kid elsewhere, and you pay twice
- 13:06Speaker 2: as much or usually quite a bit more if it's
- 13:10Speaker 2: if it's an expensive private school, certainly, so why wouldn't
- 13:16Speaker 2: they be able to take their money and direct it
- 13:18Speaker 2: where they would like to direct it. See many of
- 13:20Speaker 2: us pay Before I had kids, I was paying that
- 13:25Speaker 2: with money was going towards schooling. I have kids in
- 13:28Speaker 2: schools now public schools. They're benefiting from it. In the schools,
- 13:32Speaker 2: they're in great schools, both of them. I got no
- 13:35Speaker 2: complaints at all. But at some point my kids will
- 13:39Speaker 2: be out of school and I'll still be contributing in
- 13:41Speaker 2: some way, right, So it's just perspective on that. And
- 13:46Speaker 2: I'd also like to remind you that we do still
- 13:48Speaker 2: have people that go to school. They have kids that
- 13:51Speaker 2: go to school, and the schooling isn't the priority. We
- 13:56Speaker 2: talk about this sometimes and it's sad. This is one
- 13:58Speaker 2: of those sad realities that we have to all come
- 14:00Speaker 2: to grips with. But I remember during COVID when the
- 14:04Speaker 2: school would jump in and say, we're going to have
- 14:06Speaker 2: a zoom meeting for the district and we're going to
- 14:09Speaker 2: talk about our plans and when we're going to close
- 14:12Speaker 2: the schools. And the question, inevitably that came up more
- 14:16Speaker 2: than anything else wasn't how are our kids going to learn?
- 14:20Speaker 2: The question was how are my kids going to eat
- 14:23Speaker 2: breakfast and lunch? And that's just the reality of it.
- 14:27Speaker 2: It's not so much about education. It's about a babysitter
- 14:32Speaker 2: in some cases, and it's about breakfast and lunch. I'm
- 14:36Speaker 2: just telling you a sad thing that I witnessed. I'm
- 14:40Speaker 2: not diving into the full depths of this conversation. I
- 14:44Speaker 2: know it can go much deeper, and I'm not trying
- 14:47Speaker 2: to come across as a giant jerk. I'm just telling
- 14:49Speaker 2: you what I witnessed. And I sat there and I
- 14:52Speaker 2: looked at my lovely wife and I said, do you
- 14:55Speaker 2: believe this? This is the focus? Not how are they
- 14:59Speaker 2: going to learn? How are they gonna eat two meals?
- 15:04Speaker 2: And I get the you know, what are we gonna do?
- 15:06Speaker 2: We gotta have to go to work, and who's going
- 15:07Speaker 2: to be keeping an eye on them? I do understand
- 15:09Speaker 2: that side of it. But the question should be how
- 15:13Speaker 2: are they going to learn? Shouldn't that be the focus?
- 15:16Speaker 2: Shouldn't that be the question? But no, there are other
- 15:20Speaker 2: priorities and other questions that certainly came up, and that
- 15:24Speaker 2: seemed to be a bigger priority. Look, we've got a
- 15:28Speaker 2: lot of people that Trump is tossed up for some
- 15:33Speaker 2: of these positions. I don't know a whole lot about
- 15:37Speaker 2: Lenda McMahon other than what I've just seen on the
- 15:40Speaker 2: docu series, and boy did Vince work her over with
- 15:46Speaker 2: some of those storylines. Yeah, boy, but no, I don't
- 15:51Speaker 2: you know if this is the main focus is what
- 15:54Speaker 2: she's gonna do about school vouchers, that's certainly you know,
- 16:01Speaker 2: I mean co founder WWE, right, I mean he was
- 16:06Speaker 2: his dad was you know, this group before him. But anyway,
- 16:15Speaker 2: she was a former administrator for small Business Administration. She's
- 16:18Speaker 2: got some chops already. It's not like she's just coming
- 16:20Speaker 2: out of nowhere. She's already served, She's already done public service.
- 16:25Speaker 2: This is the quote from the press release his secretary
- 16:29Speaker 2: of Education, Linda will fight tirelessly to expand choice to
- 16:34Speaker 2: every state in America and empower parents to make the
- 16:37Speaker 2: best education decisions for their families. Linda served for two
- 16:41Speaker 2: years on the Connecticut Board of Education, where she was
- 16:44Speaker 2: one of fifteen members overseeing all public education in the state,
- 16:48Speaker 2: including its technical high school system. So this isn't completely
- 16:53Speaker 2: out of nowhere. She's got the chops, she's got the
- 16:56Speaker 2: experience and then the state and also said Linda will
- 17:01Speaker 2: use her decades of leadership, experience, and deep understanding of
- 17:04Speaker 2: both education and business to empower the next generation of
- 17:07Speaker 2: American students and workers and make America number one in
- 17:11Speaker 2: education in the world. We will send education back to
- 17:15Speaker 2: the States, and Linda will spearhead that effort. A lot
- 17:20Speaker 2: of people don't realize, you read the Constitution doesn't say
- 17:24Speaker 2: anything about education in there doesn't Founders weren't thinking, Hey,
- 17:28Speaker 2: this is going to be a national thing. This was
- 17:30Speaker 2: something that should have been with the states all along.
- 17:32Speaker 2: And that's the focus for this from this administration. What
- 17:36Speaker 2: things can we take federal power away from and send
- 17:40Speaker 2: it back to the States.
- 17:43Speaker 1: Roe v.
- 17:43Speaker 2: Wade Education and there's going to be more. Today show

- 19:41Speaker 2: Company of Columbus for all of your garage door needs,
- 19:43Speaker 2: commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's
- 19:50Speaker 2: time for. It's always good to get maintenance on anything
- 19:53Speaker 2: that has parts that move and have electronics. The folks
- 19:57Speaker 2: at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take care of
- 20:00Speaker 2: squaring that away for you, and while they're there, you
- 20:03Speaker 2: can always ask them questions about some of the maybe
- 20:05Speaker 2: cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
- 20:08Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
- 20:12Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
- 20:14Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
- 20:17Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
- 20:20Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
- 20:24Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather, sometimes
- 20:27Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
- 20:31Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
- 20:33Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
- 20:36Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
- 20:40Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor, you know, if you like
- 20:42Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
- 20:44Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
- 20:47Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
- 20:49Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
- 20:52Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
- 20:55Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
- 20:57Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
- 21:00Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, And they do those
- 21:03Speaker 2: as well. Seven oh sixty five eight forty five hundred
- 21:06Speaker 2: seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred O
- 21:10Speaker 2: dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show right after
- 21:14Speaker 2: the break. Well, if you feel like you, uh, you know,
- 21:26Speaker 2: struggling because of when the darkness comes, and it does
- 21:30Speaker 2: come early. Now that the daylight savings changes happen, just
- 21:36Speaker 2: keep in mind that there is a town in America
- 21:42Speaker 2: oot kayakvic Alaska, the northernmost town in America, has said
- 21:48Speaker 2: goodbye to the sun for two months. The phenomenon known
- 21:52Speaker 2: as polar night means the sun will not peak above
- 21:55Speaker 2: the horizon until January twenty second. So you can complain.
- 22:01Speaker 2: You can say, man, I can't believe it's so dark,
- 22:03Speaker 2: I can't believe how early it is. I think it's
- 22:05Speaker 2: just throwing my system out of wagon. I complain, I
- 22:09Speaker 2: do it's tough. I hate the change period. I'm not
- 22:12Speaker 2: even really adjusted even after the chain. And this is
- 22:15Speaker 2: supposed to be the fallback, This is supposed to be
- 22:17Speaker 2: the easy one to adjust from. But when I keep
- 22:20Speaker 2: in mind there's people that will not see the sun
- 22:22Speaker 2: for two months, I'll just stop complaining. Are you hosting
- 22:26Speaker 2: Thanksgiving for the first time this year? According to a
- 22:29Speaker 2: new survey the Honey Baked Ham Company put on forty
- 22:33Speaker 2: two percent say they're hosting Thanksgiving, and of those, twenty
- 22:37Speaker 2: percent said they'll be hosting for the very first time.
- 22:40Speaker 2: Looking to establish new traditions. Unsurprisingly, fifty two percent say
- 22:46Speaker 2: that food will play the biggest role in creating new traditions.
- 22:51Speaker 2: So yeah, food, foods. I mean, that's Thanksgiving is a
- 22:55Speaker 2: food holiday. Homegrown marijuana is having a moment right now.
- 23:00Speaker 2: Has relaxed regulations in many states are leading to more
- 23:03Speaker 2: and more people giving it a try. What was once
- 23:06Speaker 2: an illegal activity popular among high school and college kids
- 23:09Speaker 2: now attracting older, more diverse adults. In fact, for the
- 23:13Speaker 2: first time ever, the majority of pot growers sixty percent,
- 23:16Speaker 2: according to a new survey, are women was that a
- 23:20Speaker 2: TV show? Was it a cable TV show? The survey
- 23:25Speaker 2: found that fifty seven percent of homegrowers say they do
- 23:28Speaker 2: it as a means of taking control of their health
- 23:30Speaker 2: and wellness. Forty one percent called it therapeutic and stress relieving.
- 23:35Speaker 2: Thirty five percent said that growing at home is a
- 23:38Speaker 2: way to ensure the quality and strain of their cannabis.
- 23:41Speaker 2: Doesn't how many say yeah, yeah, I just like it.
- 23:46Speaker 2: I'm sure a lot of people feel that way. Maybe
- 23:47Speaker 2: not the women. I don't know that women would say
- 23:49Speaker 2: it's quite that way, but there's got to be some people. Yeah,
- 23:53Speaker 2: it's great. Approximately one hundred and fifty million Americans cast
- 23:58Speaker 2: a ballot in the presidential election and made their decision
- 24:01Speaker 2: on who to vote for based on information they gathered
- 24:03Speaker 2: from a number of sources, including news media, social media,
- 24:07Speaker 2: and by talking with friends and podcasts. According to a
- 24:12Speaker 2: survey done by the Civic Health and Institutions Project, nearly
- 24:16Speaker 2: thirty percent of Americans say they got all of their
- 24:18Speaker 2: election information from their friends and family, all of it,
- 24:21Speaker 2: every bit of it. The survey found that Americans with
- 24:25Speaker 2: less formal education were more likely to rely on friends
- 24:28Speaker 2: and family for election information. When broken down by political party,
- 24:32Speaker 2: Democrats and independence were more likely than Republicans to turn
- 24:35Speaker 2: to news media for information. I wonder why. I wonder
- 24:40Speaker 2: why Republicans were less likely to just go to news
- 24:43Speaker 2: media for information. Do you think plant based eating is
- 24:47Speaker 2: too expensive? A new study found that switching to a
- 24:49Speaker 2: vegan diet could save you nearly nine hundred dollars a
- 24:52Speaker 2: year on groceries. Researchers found that ditching meat and dairy
- 24:56Speaker 2: can cut your food costs by about two dollars and
- 24:59Speaker 2: forty cents a day. The study found that while some
- 25:02Speaker 2: vegan alternatives might cost a bit more, the savings from
- 25:05Speaker 2: not buying meat, dairy, and added fats like oil and
- 25:09Speaker 2: butter make up for it. Vegan diet won't just save
- 25:12Speaker 2: you money, It could save lives by helping to avoid
- 25:15Speaker 2: improve conditions like obesity, type two diabetes, and heart disease.
- 25:19Speaker 2: This according to doctor Hannah Kalova, director of Clinical Research
- 25:23Speaker 2: at the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. Sure those things
- 25:28Speaker 2: might be improved by it. Some people say the opposite,
- 25:31Speaker 2: and eat lots of meat and enjoy all of those
- 25:35Speaker 2: meats and watch your spikes and insulin and things go
- 25:40Speaker 2: away by enjoying that meat. So I don't know, I'm
- 25:42Speaker 2: just offering you the information if you want your wine
- 25:46Speaker 2: to tastes like pizza, well, Pizza Hut is teamed up
- 25:48Speaker 2: with Irvine Winery of Kansas for something called Tomato Wine.
- 25:53Speaker 2: Pizza Hut says that it captures the essence of your
- 25:55Speaker 2: favorite slice in every sip. It's made from a ripe,
- 25:58Speaker 2: juicy tomato used with natural basil. I have to think
- 26:03Speaker 2: about that word goes in Australia, they say basil and
- 26:06Speaker 2: offers an aromatic blend of fresh herbs and spices with
- 26:11Speaker 2: rich sun ripe and tomato notes and a subtle hint
- 26:13Speaker 2: of toasted oak reminiscent of a perfectly baked pizza crust.
- 26:17Speaker 2: The wine apparently tastes very similar to a white wine
- 26:20Speaker 2: and is best enjoyed chilled, and you can order it
- 26:23Speaker 2: through Irvinewinery dot com slash Pizza Hug. That'll do it
- 26:28Speaker 2: for this Thursday edition of the show. Thanks to our
- 26:30Speaker 2: sponsors and patrons. Thank you for listening. I'll catch you
