Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary and interviews. You need to start
- 0:05Speaker 1: your day, and you're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, twelfth day of November. I'm Wes. Thanks for
- 0:15Speaker 2: joining me. I hope you took some time yesterday to
- 0:20Speaker 2: thank a veteran in your life for think a veteran,
- 0:23Speaker 2: maybe just in passing family members of a veteran. And
- 0:28Speaker 2: if you're listening to this show, and many of you
- 0:30Speaker 2: are veterans, thank you for your service. Thank you to
- 0:35Speaker 2: your families for their role in your service. It is
- 0:38Speaker 2: all one big service really in total. I always say
- 0:43Speaker 2: that the people who especially when someone gets sent overseas
- 0:48Speaker 2: into a combat situation or a potential combat situation, it's
- 0:53Speaker 2: that family left behind. They don't know what's going on.
- 0:56Speaker 2: Often they don't know where they're going. They may have
- 0:58Speaker 2: a general idea of where they're going to be, and
- 1:02Speaker 2: sadly it's that scene from Saving Private Ryan kind of
- 1:06Speaker 2: haunt you, doesn't it when she the mom gets the
- 1:09Speaker 2: news about the deaths and it's just it feels like
- 1:12Speaker 2: that's just kind of for someone who has not served
- 1:18Speaker 2: and someone who my father was in the reserves and
- 1:24Speaker 2: I didn't experience that as a family member, and I
- 1:27Speaker 2: can just only imagine what that has to be like
- 1:30Speaker 2: as one of those taxing things that's always there. And
- 1:33Speaker 2: that scene in that movie particularly hit me among the
- 1:37Speaker 2: rest of the movie, which was just a fantastic movie,
- 1:40Speaker 2: but that opening just really put a lot of things
- 1:44Speaker 2: in perspective. And then you know, you get this scene
- 1:47Speaker 2: with this mom and she's getting this news about her sons,
- 1:50Speaker 2: and it's just horrible, and it's just perspective on that,
- 1:54Speaker 2: on what the families go through. So I hope you
- 1:57Speaker 2: took some time. And I didn't really address this on
- 2:00Speaker 2: Monday because I took the day off yesterday. It was
- 2:03Speaker 2: a holiday for my kids, so I was with them yesterday,
- 2:08Speaker 2: and I took an opportunity and spend some time with
- 2:10Speaker 2: my dad, who himself, you know, had his time in
- 2:13Speaker 2: the reserves, and I took some time to with him,
- 2:19Speaker 2: and then took some time around the house to get
- 2:21Speaker 2: some things done I needed to do. I plumbed yesterday.
- 2:25Speaker 2: I plumbed over the weekend unsuccessfully, I was close at
- 2:29Speaker 2: the wrong part, and then I successfully plumbed yesterday, so
- 2:36Speaker 2: that was something I was able to get done. But
- 2:38Speaker 2: I say this often tried to when I'm out anywhere
- 2:42Speaker 2: and I see someone who is wearing a hat at
- 2:46Speaker 2: somehow anything really, but the hats are a pretty common thing.
- 2:49Speaker 2: When you see someone in a hat that acknowledges their service.
- 2:53Speaker 2: They made the decision that day to put that hat on.
- 2:56Speaker 2: They're proud of what they did, they're proud of their work,
- 2:58Speaker 2: and they put the hat on intentionally, and I think,
- 3:02Speaker 2: I do my best, I'm not one hundred percent, but
- 3:06Speaker 2: I do my best, even if I'm having a bad day,
- 3:09Speaker 2: to try to acknowledge as many as I can and
- 3:13Speaker 2: thank them for their service, because again, they put the
- 3:16Speaker 2: hat on on purpose. They picked that hat out. It
- 3:19Speaker 2: wasn't like they just accidentally put the hat on. I
- 3:22Speaker 2: suppose that could happen. You could just pick up a
- 3:24Speaker 2: hat and put it on, But more often than not,
- 3:26Speaker 2: they've chosen to wear it because they're really proud of it.
- 3:30Speaker 2: And you know, short of actually being on the sports
- 3:34Speaker 2: team and wearing your hat after winning a championship or something,
- 3:38Speaker 2: you know, I mean, we all put certain hats on
- 3:41Speaker 2: ourselves and we go I'm gonna wear this, and I
- 3:45Speaker 2: just went to school there, and I'm proud of something
- 3:48Speaker 2: that they did. That's not the same. It's not it's
- 3:51Speaker 2: not the same. So they intentionally put that hat on.
- 3:54Speaker 2: Take a minute and acknowledge them, And I try also
- 3:58Speaker 2: if they're with a spouse, I try to ignore them
- 4:00Speaker 2: as well. We're going to talk about the Turning Point
- 4:03Speaker 2: USA at Berkeley in just a few minutes. First, I
- 4:10Speaker 2: want to talk about Cozy Earth. We just have had

- 5:44Speaker 2: USC Berkeley had this Turning Point USA event and it
- 5:51Speaker 2: turned quickly into a very hostile event. Rob Schneider was
- 5:56Speaker 2: among the people who was speaking at the event, and
- 6:00Speaker 2: this is the Turning Point USA series that is continuing
- 6:04Speaker 2: on that. Charlie Kirk was just getting started when he
- 6:07Speaker 2: was assassinated, and we can all remember what that experience
- 6:13Speaker 2: was like when we heard, when we found out, when
- 6:16Speaker 2: we were sickened at the response, all the things that
- 6:19Speaker 2: went with that event that turned my stomach. It disappointed
- 6:25Speaker 2: me in so many people. It disappointed me in organizations,
- 6:30Speaker 2: that disappointed me in that churches. There were churches that
- 6:36Speaker 2: just didn't handle it right. It just didn't handle it right.
- 6:39Speaker 2: And I say this all the time. If your church
- 6:42Speaker 2: is putting politics ahead of the actual message of the church,
- 6:50Speaker 2: I'll call out Christian churches. If you're putting your politics
- 6:53Speaker 2: ahead of the message of Jesus, if you're putting your
- 6:57Speaker 2: politics ahead of the Bible, you're not doing it right.
- 7:01Speaker 2: That's not what church is supposed to be. And there
- 7:04Speaker 2: were some churches who just absolutely dropped the ball on
- 7:07Speaker 2: how they covered the Charlie Kirk murder, the assassination, and
- 7:13Speaker 2: none of us have fully recovered from that. We have
- 7:16Speaker 2: a very quick turnover, I think, in so many ways
- 7:21Speaker 2: of things, and we see it now. You know, there
- 7:23Speaker 2: was a time when we would do the never forget
- 7:25Speaker 2: Pearl Harbor and never forget nine to eleven, and in
- 7:28Speaker 2: so many ways, some people take a minute, but they
- 7:32Speaker 2: don't necessarily really truly fulfilled the never forget promise. And
- 7:39Speaker 2: I think that you know, Charlie Kirk is different. But
- 7:41Speaker 2: this is someone who was martyred for religious beliefs, for
- 7:45Speaker 2: political beliefs, for supporting free speech. And then for the
- 7:50Speaker 2: most part, I think we've had these Turning Point USA
- 7:54Speaker 2: events that were scheduled before he was killed that have
- 7:59Speaker 2: gone on and people have filled in and stepped into
- 8:03Speaker 2: these roles where they're able to still have these events.
- 8:07Speaker 2: There's a lot of new schools around the country that
- 8:10Speaker 2: have jumped in to Turning Point USA because of what
- 8:17Speaker 2: happened to Charlie Kirk and because of what his message
- 8:20Speaker 2: was all about. And that's all encouraging. But then you
- 8:23Speaker 2: get this wild scene at this university that at one
- 8:29Speaker 2: time was kind of looked at as hey, this is
- 8:31Speaker 2: supposed to be free thought, right, we're supposed to have
- 8:33Speaker 2: and that's been a long time ago. But it was
- 8:37Speaker 2: just it was bad to see people so violent and
- 8:39Speaker 2: hateful and nasty. And then it's a reminder, these are
- 8:43Speaker 2: the people who celebrated when Charlie Kirk was killed. These
- 8:45Speaker 2: are the people who don't really appreciate human life, and
- 8:49Speaker 2: they put it out there for you. They tell you
- 8:51Speaker 2: human life is not important to them. For the most part,
- 8:57Speaker 2: I mean not everyone who was protesting. Some people genuine
- 9:00Speaker 2: they show up to those protests and they're just like, hey,
- 9:02Speaker 2: I don't like the things that are being said, but
- 9:06Speaker 2: protesting that is going against this whole notion of free
- 9:10Speaker 2: thought and free expression, isn't it. But for the most part,
- 9:13Speaker 2: you got people that don't I think they don't believe
- 9:18Speaker 2: in sanctity of life. They don't. They do when it's
- 9:21Speaker 2: someone who has killed someone and they're set to be executed,
- 9:26Speaker 2: and they say, oh, there, this person shouldn't be executed.
- 9:29Speaker 2: We shouldn't have that, And that's another debate some people,
- 9:32Speaker 2: there's there's mixed feelings on that. I don't think you
- 9:34Speaker 2: can compare someone being executed to an unborn child being killed,
- 9:39Speaker 2: but that's that seems to be the weird argument that
- 9:44Speaker 2: many on the left go to. Anyway, It's odd to
- 9:50Speaker 2: me the fact that these people are still celebrating Charlie
- 9:55Speaker 2: Kirk's death, still celebrating what took place, still celebrating and
- 10:01Speaker 2: supporting this whole notion, this whole idea that people should
- 10:06Speaker 2: be silenced because they have an opinion that's different to them.
- 10:09Speaker 2: We still have people standing at college campuses spitting and
- 10:13Speaker 2: calling people fascists just for having a disagreement, and it's
- 10:17Speaker 2: just it's a crazy it's a crazy place to be.
- 10:23Speaker 2: The other thing I want to talk about, just for
- 10:25Speaker 2: a minute, is we have, obviously the situation going on
- 10:30Speaker 2: with the shutdown. It seems like we're getting close. I know,
- 10:32Speaker 2: there's things that have to take place, and maybe today
- 10:36Speaker 2: is the day we get closer to all.
- 10:37Speaker 1: Of that.
- 10:39Speaker 2: And some of the things that have obviously been extremely
- 10:44Speaker 2: taxing on the American people. And it's you know, people
- 10:47Speaker 2: that need things like snap benefits that you know aren't
- 10:50Speaker 2: able to eat. You have people that are going to
- 10:53Speaker 2: jobs and they're not getting paid. These are both horrible things.
- 10:56Speaker 2: And this is just two things that really stand out. Obviously.
- 11:01Speaker 2: The air traffic situation with air traffic controllers horrible. You
- 11:07Speaker 2: got people that have been going to work not getting
- 11:08Speaker 2: paid for it. You got people that are just not
- 11:11Speaker 2: showing up for work. President working on a bonus. He's
- 11:15Speaker 2: talked about a bonus at least for the people who
- 11:16Speaker 2: have shown up for work. But basically all of these
- 11:22Speaker 2: things hopefully will be in progress as we it looks
- 11:25Speaker 2: like we're gonna be able to kick the can on
- 11:27Speaker 2: the bigger vote. The Democrats say was the whole focus
- 11:33Speaker 2: until the end of January, and that's where it looks
- 11:37Speaker 2: like at least things are heading. But it's just interesting
- 11:42Speaker 2: to me as all of this has taken place. We
- 11:46Speaker 2: now have Pete Buddha Judge, who was the previous Transportation
- 11:57Speaker 2: secretary before Sean Duffy, who has the role now. And
- 12:03Speaker 2: this is one of those deals with Pete Boodha Judge
- 12:05Speaker 2: where they gave him this position, this cabinet position, and
- 12:08Speaker 2: they thought, we're getting this guy ready. He was the
- 12:11Speaker 2: mayor of a small town in Indiana, and they thought,
- 12:15Speaker 2: this is going to be the guy. He's going to
- 12:17Speaker 2: be the presidential hopeful. He is the future, he is
- 12:20Speaker 2: the future franchise player, and it just didn't pan out.
- 12:26Speaker 2: People saw him for the fraud that he was. He's
- 12:29Speaker 2: not that candidate, he's not that person. We even recently
- 12:33Speaker 2: had Kamala Harris doing interviews where she said, you know,
- 12:37Speaker 2: she could have picked him to be her vice president,
- 12:39Speaker 2: but America wasn't ready for a black woman and a
- 12:43Speaker 2: gay man to be the ticket. And it was a
- 12:46Speaker 2: weird conversation because she had it, you know, with a
- 12:49Speaker 2: gay woman. While she's doing this interview with Rachel Maddow.
- 12:54Speaker 2: Rachel Maddow was like, wait to say that again, what
- 12:55Speaker 2: was that? So it's all just a strange one of
- 13:00Speaker 2: those things that you normally don't say out loud, but
- 13:02Speaker 2: she said it out loud. But anyway, so let's just
- 13:06Speaker 2: for a minute think back to when Pete Boodha Judge
- 13:10Speaker 2: was the Transportation secretary and we had a you know,
- 13:12Speaker 2: a couple of train tragedies, train incidents that were just terrible,
- 13:17Speaker 2: and he was like on paternity leave, like you know,
- 13:20Speaker 2: they had adopted a baby or whatever the thing was,
- 13:22Speaker 2: and it just there was no sorry, I don't know
- 13:25Speaker 2: the exact situation. Maybe one of them was the biological father.
- 13:28Speaker 2: I don't know what the deal was, but he was
- 13:30Speaker 2: on paternity leave. And I understand that there's an importance
- 13:35Speaker 2: to something like paternity leave. But when you're the Secretary
- 13:38Speaker 2: of Transportation and there's some sort of horrible incident that
- 13:41Speaker 2: takes place that falls under your pervy, I think maybe
- 13:45Speaker 2: you should show up for work. You should say you
- 13:48Speaker 2: know what you know to his husband, I'm gonna I'm
- 13:51Speaker 2: gonna go to work. I gotta go do this. I'll
- 13:54Speaker 2: be back. And he has now come out and he's
- 13:59Speaker 2: been of things going on with Sean Duffy, and he
- 14:05Speaker 2: just went on to X saying the president went in
- 14:09Speaker 2: last five minutes. It's an air traffic controller, and after
- 14:13Speaker 2: everything they've been through and the way this administration has
- 14:16Speaker 2: treated him from day one, he has no business bleeping
- 14:21Speaker 2: on them now. And that's when Sean Duffy responded, give
- 14:27Speaker 2: me a break. You were basically a wall at the dot.
- 14:30Speaker 2: I spent my whole day dealing with your neglect and
- 14:32Speaker 2: cleaning up your messes. Sit this one out, well done,
- 14:37Speaker 2: well done. As soon as I saw the headline about
- 14:43Speaker 2: Pete Boodha Judge chiming in on this, I thought he
- 14:47Speaker 2: has no business criticizing anything at all. I mean, what
- 14:52Speaker 2: can he be unless he wants to be critical of
- 14:55Speaker 2: Kamala Harris for her reasons for not even get giving
- 15:00Speaker 2: him a real serious consideration for the VP pick. Now.
- 15:04Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong, I don't think he would have
- 15:06Speaker 2: won the race for her. I don't think that would
- 15:09Speaker 2: have been a difference maker. I think the American people
- 15:12Speaker 2: spoke very loudly in their support of Donald Trump. I
- 15:18Speaker 2: think that race was lost the moment he got arrested
- 15:21Speaker 2: and got a mug shot. It was the mugshot heard
- 15:23Speaker 2: around the world, and that's exactly how it all really
- 15:26Speaker 2: started to fall into place. So it is interesting interesting
- 15:31Speaker 2: that he has decided that this is the time he
- 15:33Speaker 2: feels like he needs to stand up and speak out
- 15:37Speaker 2: after really just barely even being present during his time
- 15:43Speaker 2: at the Department of Transportation as the secretary. So wild stuff.
- 15:49Speaker 2: I think it's interesting to see it play out, and
- 15:51Speaker 2: I think it's comical the way that Sean Duffy handled it.
- 15:54Speaker 2: I think it was very well done. Well. We're now
- 15:57Speaker 2: into holiday shopping season, and I have some good news
- 16:01Speaker 2: for you. If there's someone in your life that you

- 20:23Speaker 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
- 20:30Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
- 20:32Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
- 20:35Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
- 20:39Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
- 20:41Speaker 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
- 20:46Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
- 20:48Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
- 20:51Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
- 20:54Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
- 20:56Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
- 20:59Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
- 21:02Speaker 2: as well. Seven oh sixty five eight forty five hundred
- 21:06Speaker 2: seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred O
- 21:09Speaker 2: dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show right after
- 21:13Speaker 2: the break. So the UH boxing biopic Christie that has
- 21:28Speaker 2: Sidney Sweeney playing Christy Martin, UH female boxer pioneer, not
- 21:35Speaker 2: a household name. A lot of people are saying, is
- 21:38Speaker 2: this like a sign that the biopicks are not something
- 21:43Speaker 2: that are resonating with viewers anymore. I think there's a
- 21:48Speaker 2: few things going on here. I don't know if people
- 21:51Speaker 2: are going to the movies to watch a first of
- 21:53Speaker 2: all Bruce Springsteen story. I don't think they care anymore.
- 21:57Speaker 2: I think that that window of that being interesting is
- 22:00Speaker 2: definitely in the past. I think the movie, and I
- 22:04Speaker 2: mentioned this the other day, the movie and I don't
- 22:06Speaker 2: recall the name of it, but about the Indian kid
- 22:08Speaker 2: who was a big Bruce Springsteen family fan, had struggled
- 22:13Speaker 2: with his family with his goals and things that he
- 22:17Speaker 2: had in life. That itself was really good, a really
- 22:23Speaker 2: good tribute to Bruce Springsteen in that way. We're in
- 22:26Speaker 2: a period now where people are, you know, half the
- 22:28Speaker 2: country doesn't like Bruce Springsteen. They just don't. Half the
- 22:31Speaker 2: country is like, I don't care what Bruce Springsteen has
- 22:35Speaker 2: to say about politics. I don't care. And in this
- 22:37Speaker 2: case with Sydney Sweeney, I think half the country again
- 22:43Speaker 2: likes her. Other half the country on the left, I
- 22:46Speaker 2: think they're upset with her because she made a gene
- 22:48Speaker 2: ad and I don't understand why that would be a
- 22:50Speaker 2: big deal but one point three million for a basically
- 22:55Speaker 2: kind of an art house type movie. It's you know,
- 22:58Speaker 2: it was our drama. There was talk, you know, critics
- 23:03Speaker 2: were talking her performance and all these things. I don't
- 23:07Speaker 2: know that it's an indication that you can't make a biopic.
- 23:10Speaker 2: I just think that it's an indication that people are
- 23:14Speaker 2: frustrated with Hollywood. I think that's more it than anything else.
- 23:17Speaker 2: You give them a movie with explosions and superheroes and
- 23:20Speaker 2: lasers and things, I think you got a better shot
- 23:23Speaker 2: at getting people's butts in the seats. That's just my
- 23:26Speaker 2: thoughts on it, all right. The over the top gender
- 23:30Speaker 2: reveals have been popular in the past, and sometimes with mishaps,
- 23:36Speaker 2: but apparently the trend is going down, and more and
- 23:40Speaker 2: more couples are choosing to keep their gender reveals private,
- 23:44Speaker 2: some doing it the old fashioned way, waiting until they're
- 23:46Speaker 2: in the delivery room to find out it's not over.
- 23:49Speaker 2: But they seem to be more subdued, a little less confetti,
- 23:52Speaker 2: a little more calm. That's probably a good thing. It
- 23:56Speaker 2: was getting out of control, wasn't it. In today's tough
- 23:58Speaker 2: job market, some job seekers are getting creative by using
- 24:02Speaker 2: dating apps like tender and bumble to network their way
- 24:04Speaker 2: into new jobs. A resume Builder survey found that more
- 24:07Speaker 2: than thirty percent of dating app users have used them
- 24:11Speaker 2: for career related reasons, and nearly one in eight say
- 24:15Speaker 2: that that's their main reason for swiping. Of those who
- 24:17Speaker 2: used dating apps for career networking, a whopping eighty eight
- 24:20Speaker 2: percent so they made a successful connection. In doing so,
- 24:25Speaker 2: nearly half got helpful advice or mentorship, thirty nine percent
- 24:29Speaker 2: so they landed a job interview. Through it, many received
- 24:33Speaker 2: a referral or a job lead, and about thirty seven
- 24:37Speaker 2: percent scored a job offer LinkedIn feeling a little too competitive,
- 24:42Speaker 2: dating apps offer a more casual way to connect. It's unconventional,
- 24:47Speaker 2: but in a world craving human connection might just be
- 24:51Speaker 2: a move that could pay off. And apparently it's already
- 24:54Speaker 2: paid off for some something that can make you feel
- 24:58Speaker 2: a little better about the grey hairs that you're starting
- 25:01Speaker 2: to get, or maybe you got a lot of them already.
- 25:04Speaker 2: A new study has shown that those annoying little age
- 25:06Speaker 2: reminders may actually be protecting you from cancer. Researchers at
- 25:12Speaker 2: the University of Tokyo found that some fascinating, something really
- 25:18Speaker 2: fascinating I guess about mice. When the hair color stem
- 25:21Speaker 2: cells get damaged, the body kicks them out. It's a
- 25:25Speaker 2: defense mechanism to stop those cells from turning cancerous. The
- 25:29Speaker 2: trade off is that you lose the pigment and the
- 25:31Speaker 2: hair turns gray. Scientists believe the same thing is happening
- 25:34Speaker 2: in humans. Each silver strand may mean your body has
- 25:37Speaker 2: successfully eliminated a cell with broken DNA. So think about
- 25:43Speaker 2: that and the next time you get some new gray
- 25:45Speaker 2: hair and you're looking in the mirror or wherever you
- 25:47Speaker 2: find it on your body, you body maybe just fighting
- 25:51Speaker 2: the battle for you, and you know, if you want
- 25:54Speaker 2: to change the color of it, you can, But you
- 25:56Speaker 2: just know underneath that coloring you've added to get rid
- 26:00Speaker 2: of it, you do have those battle scars that your
- 26:03Speaker 2: body is fighting that fight for you. So and finally,
- 26:07Speaker 2: a good reason to finally download a language learning app.
- 26:11Speaker 2: Speaking more than one language can be your secret weapon
- 26:14Speaker 2: against rapid aging. As researchers analyze data from over eighty
- 26:18Speaker 2: six thousand Europeans between the ages of fifty one and
- 26:21Speaker 2: ninety and found that those who only spoke one language
- 26:25Speaker 2: were nearly twice as likely to experience accelerated aging compared
- 26:29Speaker 2: to those who were multi lingual, who were about half
- 26:32Speaker 2: as likely. And the reason Juggling languages keeps your brain
- 26:36Speaker 2: nimble and alert, just like socializing and staying active, It
- 26:40Speaker 2: helps slow cognitive and even physical decline, and the benefits
- 26:44Speaker 2: stick around even after accounting for health, environment and lifestyle differences.
- 26:49Speaker 2: Interesting stuff. Well, the holidays are fast approaching and we
