0:01
Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start
0:05
Speaker 1: your day and you're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show.
0:10
Speaker 2: Thursday morning, eighth day of August. I'm West Thanks for
0:14
Speaker 2: joining me. We've been addressing the back to school wave
0:21
Speaker 2: that is hitting parts of the country now here in
0:25
Speaker 2: the Chattahoochee Valley area in Georgia, and that encompasses parts
0:31
Speaker 2: of Alabama on the Phoenix city side to Smith's Station
0:36
Speaker 2: and school districts up in Harrison County. We're hitting that
0:40
Speaker 2: phase in Georgia. We're hitting that phase where many of
0:44
Speaker 2: the kids, by today we'll be back in school. There's
0:48
Speaker 2: still a few that start, you know, a week from
0:51
Speaker 2: now or next week, but many of them will be
0:54
Speaker 2: back in this area. With Muskogee County the next wave.
0:59
Speaker 2: I know there have been waves of kids at Muskogee County.
1:01
Speaker 2: I know some started yesterday, some of the younger age
1:05
Speaker 2: kids at some schools. Anyway, and again, you know, to
1:10
Speaker 2: the teachers, godspeed, God bless may you have a fantastic
1:15
Speaker 2: year of teaching. All the staffing working at the schools
1:19
Speaker 2: and the kids, hey go get them great opportunity there
1:22
Speaker 2: with you with an educational an educational opportunity right there
1:29
Speaker 2: for you and a great chance to, you know, go
1:33
Speaker 2: make something of it, Go do something with it. Not
1:35
Speaker 2: everybody does something with it. That's why I say that
1:38
Speaker 2: it's there, it's available. Some kids don't take advantage of it.
1:43
Speaker 2: Some do, and I'm just encouraging you to do that,
1:46
Speaker 2: go make the most of it. So a few things
1:49
Speaker 2: I want to address today, and I guess I want
1:53
Speaker 2: to start with this latest There's been a few revelations
1:59
Speaker 2: of terror plots around the world, attempts that, oh they're
2:06
Speaker 2: going to take another I guess, a possible assassination attempt
2:11
Speaker 2: on Donald Trump. Somebody wanted to do that. They were caught,
2:16
Speaker 2: They were trying to hire a hitman. There's been story
2:18
Speaker 2: in people from you know, different parts of I guess
2:23
Speaker 2: there were Iranian ties. Anyway, that's been handled by authorities properly. Good,
2:32
Speaker 2: that's what should happen. And I know that after the
2:37
Speaker 2: actual assassination attempt on on Trump and bullet hit him
2:43
Speaker 2: in the year bullet hit a hero, a firefighter, father,
2:51
Speaker 2: and and took his life and always worth mentioning that,
2:55
Speaker 2: and I understand, and I talked yesterday about you know,
2:58
Speaker 2: Republicans dodged the bullet when it comes to Trump being
3:02
Speaker 2: killed and then the metaphorical bullet of Josh Shapiro. In
3:07
Speaker 2: no way am I trying to ignore the fact that
3:10
Speaker 2: someone was killed at that rally. People were shot and
3:14
Speaker 2: injured at that rally, so we can't forget that. But
3:19
Speaker 2: maybe you're one of those people who said, oh, it
3:21
Speaker 2: was all staged. It was something that Republicans cooked up
3:25
Speaker 2: so that there would be sympathy for Trump. First of all,
3:27
Speaker 2: it's stupid. That's dumb. Why would if anyone was trying
3:34
Speaker 2: to do that, Why would you know you wouldn't shoot
3:38
Speaker 2: the shot that was a quarter of an inch away
3:41
Speaker 2: from ending his life. I mean, that's idiotic to think
3:44
Speaker 2: that somebody would take that chance. But people are going
3:48
Speaker 2: to believe what they want to believe. They're going to
3:50
Speaker 2: go with it. But if you believe that, and then
3:55
Speaker 2: now we're getting these stories of people wanting, you know,
3:58
Speaker 2: other attempts from other parts.
4:01
Speaker 1: Of the world.
4:02
Speaker 2: Now we know that there has been I guess in
4:06
Speaker 2: Austria a foiled terror plot that was multiple events were targeted,
4:13
Speaker 2: including a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna. Austria's federal police agency,
4:19
Speaker 2: so they arrested two men, a nineteen year old who
4:22
Speaker 2: had allegedly pledged his allegiance to ISIS. Both men had
4:26
Speaker 2: specific plans to carry out attacks, and we're found in
4:28
Speaker 2: possession of chemical substances and materials to build a bomb.
4:33
Speaker 2: Taylor Swift has three shows in Vienna. They say that
4:36
Speaker 2: we'll go on as plan today, Tomorrow, and Saturday, and
4:41
Speaker 2: extra security will be on hand for the show. So
4:47
Speaker 2: let me just say this to you, if there isn't
4:50
Speaker 2: another reason for us to realize that we need adults
4:55
Speaker 2: in charge, we need people in charge at every level. Now,
5:00
Speaker 2: I understand it's not the responsibility of anyone in the
5:04
Speaker 2: US to police what's going on in Austria. However, let's
5:10
Speaker 2: just keep in mind that for those of us who
5:13
Speaker 2: have as someone in their life who loves Taylor Swift,
5:18
Speaker 2: this would have been a big deal. Right. This isn't
5:22
Speaker 2: the same. It doesn't affect an election, it doesn't affect
5:24
Speaker 2: but it would be a pretty significant event in history
5:31
Speaker 2: were a Taylor Swift event attacked. So let's keep that
5:36
Speaker 2: in mind as we go in November to cast votes.
5:41
Speaker 2: Let's take some time to realize that we need adults
5:46
Speaker 2: in charge. We need people in charge who are hiring
5:52
Speaker 2: the people that will be in charge of things like security,
5:56
Speaker 2: not based on DEI, but based on who the best
6:00
Speaker 2: possible person is for the job. And I hate to
6:05
Speaker 2: always reference this, but remember there was the sub expedition
6:10
Speaker 2: where everyone tragically died, and the guy who ran the company,
6:15
Speaker 2: who was also in the sub had said he wasn't
6:19
Speaker 2: just going to hire a bunch of retired navy white
6:23
Speaker 2: guys to do this because they didn't have an interesting
6:26
Speaker 2: story to tell. So let's just remember hiring the best
6:31
Speaker 2: person for each job is usually the best way to go.
6:36
Speaker 2: And it's important that we think about that as we
6:39
Speaker 2: go and hire someone to be president, someone to run
6:44
Speaker 2: the country, because quite frankly, what is starting to shape
6:49
Speaker 2: up on the left is a second insult to us
6:55
Speaker 2: as a voting block. And I'm talking about as all Americans.
7:00
Speaker 2: Four years ago, we had an election with a presidential
7:04
Speaker 2: candidate on the left who most people that were really
7:10
Speaker 2: objective in all of this had questions about the competency,
7:15
Speaker 2: about the cognition of Joe Biden. He had a reputation
7:21
Speaker 2: that people were willing to roll the di song, they
7:24
Speaker 2: were willing to give it a shot. They were willing
7:27
Speaker 2: to say, maybe Joe Biden is able to do this job.
7:32
Speaker 2: We're going to believe that he's the same person that
7:34
Speaker 2: we've always believed him to be and that he'll be
7:37
Speaker 2: just fine. Voters were asked to take that on their word.
7:44
Speaker 2: Folks on the left that said, hey, Biden will be fine.
7:49
Speaker 2: He's great. We can't keep up with him. He's in
7:53
Speaker 2: the best condition he's been in his whole life. He
7:56
Speaker 2: is exactly who we've always known him to be. And
8:00
Speaker 2: we're not going to parade him around during COVID. We're
8:03
Speaker 2: not going to put him out in the public and
8:05
Speaker 2: take a chance on him getting sick. He is in
8:09
Speaker 2: the high risk population. We're not going to take a
8:13
Speaker 2: risk on that. We're not going to let him get sick.
8:15
Speaker 2: We're going to just keep him as safe as we can.
8:18
Speaker 2: He'll do these virtual events. We don't think it's safe
8:23
Speaker 2: or it's fair to put him out there and put
8:25
Speaker 2: him at risk. So we're going to effectively just hide
8:29
Speaker 2: him under the bed because that's the safest thing possible
8:33
Speaker 2: for him, and that we believe he's the person who
8:36
Speaker 2: can come in and fix the country after this pandemic,
8:41
Speaker 2: and voters believed it. They didn't ask that he be
8:47
Speaker 2: vetted because you know, we kind of knew. We know
8:51
Speaker 2: who he is, right, we know who he is. He's
8:53
Speaker 2: Joe Biden. He's been in politics forever. He's really been
8:57
Speaker 2: part of the you know, he's been one of the
8:59
Speaker 2: people that's created the problem over the years. I mean,
9:03
Speaker 2: you can't look at you know, when we have our
9:06
Speaker 2: Congress has low approval ratings, and he's been part of
9:10
Speaker 2: that over the years. Watch that decline happen. Part of
9:15
Speaker 2: that Obama administration that really didn't accomplish much of anything.
9:21
Speaker 2: Eight years, very little accomplishments. There were some executive orders
9:27
Speaker 2: that were put in place, Obamacare was there, but has
9:30
Speaker 2: that really made things better? I mean maybe for some
9:34
Speaker 2: I don't know. It hasn't made things better for middle
9:37
Speaker 2: class Americans that always had health insurance to begin with.
9:41
Speaker 2: It's made it harder. It's harder to go to the doctor,
9:44
Speaker 2: it's harder to afford it. But that's the one real
9:49
Speaker 2: accomplishment for that administration. This administration with Biden and Harris
9:56
Speaker 2: has done nothing really positive. They really hang their hat
10:03
Speaker 2: on the insulin and they say, oh, we got the
10:06
Speaker 2: cost to insulin down to thirty five dollars or whatever.
10:09
Speaker 2: Trump did the same thing during his administration. The Biden
10:13
Speaker 2: administration ended that executive order and then put their own
10:17
Speaker 2: executive order in so that they could do what they're
10:19
Speaker 2: doing and say, hey, look what we did. It had
10:23
Speaker 2: already happened, but they came along and wanted to be
10:26
Speaker 2: able to take credit for it and spike the football.
10:29
Speaker 2: It's one of the things that they do. It's their
10:32
Speaker 2: way of lying to you without really lying to you. See,
10:35
Speaker 2: it's sneaky and that's what they do. So maybe, just
10:40
Speaker 2: maybe during a pandemic, we were all willing to say, yeah,
10:43
Speaker 2: you can hide your candidate. You don't have to go
10:45
Speaker 2: out and do interviews, you don't have to go out
10:48
Speaker 2: and talk to the public and take questions from reporters.
10:53
Speaker 2: But now we're being asked to do that again in
10:57
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. There's no pandemic thing really that would
11:01
Speaker 2: keep Kamala Harris from going out and speaking. There's nothing
11:05
Speaker 2: stopping Kamala Harris from basically laying out her plans, laying
11:12
Speaker 2: out her platform for what kind of president she'll be.
11:17
Speaker 2: All we know of Kamala Harris is what we knew
11:21
Speaker 2: about Biden. Really, I think Biden by this point probably
11:24
Speaker 2: had let us know what his platform was, at least
11:26
Speaker 2: with Harris, we don't know. I mean, are we supposed
11:30
Speaker 2: to assume she's just going to continue the Biden administration,
11:36
Speaker 2: Because if that's the assumption, then we absolutely can't vote
11:40
Speaker 2: for her because things aren't working well economically, they're not
11:45
Speaker 2: working well. Adults aren't in charge, we don't have real
11:49
Speaker 2: law and order in the country the way that we've
11:52
Speaker 2: had in the past. We don't have common sense, we
11:56
Speaker 2: don't have a secure border. There's a lot of things
12:00
Speaker 2: we could run through, so that can't be it. We
12:03
Speaker 2: can't say that she's just going to continue on with that.
12:06
Speaker 2: I know that she's saying how moderate she is and
12:10
Speaker 2: how she's not really in any way this extreme liberal
12:14
Speaker 2: that she once was. I guess they're not even admitting that.
12:16
Speaker 2: They're pretending that she never was. So if we are
12:21
Speaker 2: to take her at that, that's a fail. If we're
12:25
Speaker 2: to take her at what her platform was when she
12:28
Speaker 2: ran for president four years ago, then it's even more
12:34
Speaker 2: for left, which maybe we can assume that when they
12:39
Speaker 2: decided that they weren't going to have Josh Shapiro be
12:42
Speaker 2: the VP pick because you can't upset the squad, you
12:47
Speaker 2: can't upset the folks on the left that were ready
12:51
Speaker 2: to burn the country down because you know, there were
12:55
Speaker 2: Jewish students going to college, trying to graduate, go to
12:58
Speaker 2: their graduation ceremony. So, I mean, are we looking at
13:04
Speaker 2: a situation where this is gonna happen again. She's just
13:09
Speaker 2: we're gonna have another candidate that's just going to be
13:11
Speaker 2: allowed to just write it out, no real issues, no
13:17
Speaker 2: real platform laid out, and we're we're you know, we're
13:23
Speaker 2: under the ninety day mark now right to election day,
13:26
Speaker 2: were it's not far off. November is coming up fast.
13:30
Speaker 2: We need to know who Kamala Harris is if people
13:33
Speaker 2: are going to be but they don't want. I think
13:37
Speaker 2: the people on the left, the hardcore Democrats that are
13:40
Speaker 2: going to vote for her no matter what, they're there,
13:42
Speaker 2: they're locked in. It's not like that's going to change.
13:47
Speaker 2: Folks that are going to vote for Trump are gonna
13:48
Speaker 2: vote for Trump. This is that the middle, the people
13:51
Speaker 2: in the middle, and there's a lot of people in
13:53
Speaker 2: the middle that are frustrated. Maybe they don't like Trump,
13:56
Speaker 2: maybe they don't want to commit to Trump. But they
14:03
Speaker 2: also know that we got problems and they want to
14:06
Speaker 2: know where she stands on things, and they're not giving
14:10
Speaker 2: us the answers. They're not telling us who she is
14:13
Speaker 2: or what she's about. Now, if we're going on her
14:14
Speaker 2: track record, we know who she is. We know exactly
14:17
Speaker 2: what she's about. And I think that people should you
14:21
Speaker 2: be able to tell exactly what kind of president Kamala
14:25
Speaker 2: Harris will be. It'll be the same as Joe Biden
14:28
Speaker 2: lights on nobody's home. Somebody else is making decisions behind
14:33
Speaker 2: the scenes. And I think that maybe that's the best
14:36
Speaker 2: representation for or best explanation at least for why they
14:42
Speaker 2: don't want us to know what she stands for, because
14:44
Speaker 2: it's not really about what she stands for, right and
14:47
Speaker 2: it's not what it's about at all. It's about the
14:51
Speaker 2: people behind the scenes that are running things, and we
14:54
Speaker 2: should be at least told what the plan is. We
14:58
Speaker 2: should be told what those people making the decisions are
15:01
Speaker 2: going to do with the country. We need to know that,
15:03
Speaker 2: don't We need to know that We should. We shouldn't
15:07
Speaker 2: go through another election where we're playing the Hyde and
15:10
Speaker 2: Biden strategy. That's not a strategy. Yes, it worked during COVID.
15:18
Speaker 2: It did. It shouldn't have No one should have let
15:21
Speaker 2: that slide, but they let it slide. And now it
15:26
Speaker 2: seems that's going to be the strategy all over again.
15:30
Speaker 2: Corey Bush. By the way, it's worth mentioning this is
15:33
Speaker 2: now the second member of the squad that has lost
15:38
Speaker 2: a primary and is not going to be continuing on.
15:42
Speaker 2: That is an interesting development here and maybe one of
15:46
Speaker 2: those things that if people aren't going to continue to
15:49
Speaker 2: back these members of the squad in some of these races,
15:53
Speaker 2: I think that maybe that should have been at least
15:55
Speaker 2: considered when picking a running mate instead of basically asking
16:00
Speaker 2: God to walk around pretend he's not Jewish. I don't
16:03
Speaker 2: know that they actually said it to him, but and
16:06
Speaker 2: then not give him the nomination or give him the
16:10
Speaker 2: pick anyway, not allowing him to be the pick on
16:13
Speaker 2: the on the ballot and anyway. It's interesting that that's
16:21
Speaker 2: the way that player. I got one more thing I
16:22
Speaker 2: want to mention, and no, this isn't really related to politics,
16:24
Speaker 2: but it's just kind of related to life and society.
16:31
Speaker 2: It's interesting to me in in sports, there are some
16:35
Speaker 2: sports where I feel like and when I hear that
16:38
Speaker 2: a wide receiver in football or a cornerback is like
16:42
Speaker 2: running their mouth. It doesn't surprise me that that those
16:45
Speaker 2: are kind of very cocky positions. They tend to be
16:49
Speaker 2: really fast, they tend to be very there's a bit
16:52
Speaker 2: of showmanship to those positions. They're battling with each other
16:55
Speaker 2: all the time. I understand the trash talking on the field.
17:01
Speaker 2: It was never my thing. I never liked it when
17:04
Speaker 2: I played sports. When I played like high school sports
17:07
Speaker 2: and tried to play you know, any sort of adult
17:09
Speaker 2: league stuff. You kind of get caught up in it sometimes,
17:13
Speaker 2: and I don't I never liked it. You know, somebody
17:15
Speaker 2: would kind of bait you into getting into it with him,
17:17
Speaker 2: and then you did, and then you think, ah, why
17:19
Speaker 2: did I let them do that. It's interesting to me
17:23
Speaker 2: that just the fact that gymnastics has somehow become one
17:32
Speaker 2: of these sports where there's just there's there always just
17:35
Speaker 2: seems to be drama present and this and it seems
17:41
Speaker 2: to be and I'm not going to blame some own biles,
17:44
Speaker 2: it seems to kind of be circulating around her. There's
17:46
Speaker 2: a lot of like she's people criticizing her hair and she's, uh,
17:50
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know what the cycle is.
17:53
Speaker 2: I don't know who said something about her hair and
17:55
Speaker 2: then she defended her hair. Don't talk about my hair.
17:57
Speaker 2: People were making fun of it. I don't know what
18:01
Speaker 2: the story is with her and MICHAELA. Skinner. I know
18:03
Speaker 2: Mikayla Skinner's former gymnast and former I guess teammate with Bile,
18:08
Speaker 2: said something about how it seemed like this current team,
18:14
Speaker 2: you know, didn't have the work ethic maybe that ones
18:17
Speaker 2: had in the past, or didn't seem to. And that's
18:21
Speaker 2: now let and there's the Biles fans that are going
18:24
Speaker 2: after her, and she's death threats and she's asked Bile
18:29
Speaker 2: to maybe ask her supporters to stop. This is a
18:32
Speaker 2: weird thing to me? Is I don't know, but it
18:35
Speaker 2: seems strange that gymnastics has now turned intoto this and
18:42
Speaker 2: I know that there's been Biles has had issues of
18:46
Speaker 2: mental health. That's why she dropped out of the last
18:48
Speaker 2: Olympics there was and I said things about that then
18:53
Speaker 2: I'm not critical about anybody with mental health. She had
18:56
Speaker 2: a camera crew following her around documenting how she was,
18:59
Speaker 2: you know, going to be the greatest ever and win
19:01
Speaker 2: another gold and all these sorts of things, and then
19:04
Speaker 2: it was too much pressure for her, and I think
19:06
Speaker 2: maybe that part of that may have played into it.
19:09
Speaker 2: That was my guess, that was my assumption. But I
19:11
Speaker 2: think it's great that she came back and she's won,
19:14
Speaker 2: and she's, you know, unbelievably accomplished as an athlete. She
19:20
Speaker 2: already was before even this Olympics came around to come
19:23
Speaker 2: along again and now hold more medals than anyone else
19:27
Speaker 2: in gymnastics history. I guess for the US it's fantastic, great,
19:32
Speaker 2: But why is there so much drama just circulating around
19:36
Speaker 2: the gymnastics team. It seems like a strange place for it,
19:41
Speaker 2: Like you don't expect it in some sports. And just
19:44
Speaker 2: to me, I mean, I liked that there's fire, I
19:46
Speaker 2: liked that there's competition. It's just a strange place for
19:49
Speaker 2: there just to be a lot of drama and baggage,
19:52
Speaker 2: isn't it. Today's show brought to you by Columbus State
19:54
Speaker 2: University's Coca Cola Space Science Center, inspiring and educating the
20:00
Speaker 2: youth and future STEM leaders and STEM career holders that
20:06
Speaker 2: really of all ages, I mean, they do it for
20:09
Speaker 2: school age kids. As school age kids visit the Coca
20:11
Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center, but they also do it through
20:14
Speaker 2: their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics,
20:19
Speaker 2: and the careers in space and stem fields are booming
20:24
Speaker 2: right now, and you can learn more about maybe getting
20:27

Speaker 2: they're there, you can always ask them questions about some
22:10
Speaker 2: of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to
22:13
Speaker 2: your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what
22:17
Speaker 2: you want it to be and you need some repair
22:19
Speaker 2: work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a
22:21
Speaker 2: brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise
22:25
Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
22:29
Speaker 2: sort of insulation issue that you've got with colder or
22:32
Speaker 2: warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
22:36
Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to

Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
22:41
Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
22:44
Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know,
22:48
Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
22:50
Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man cavid, you'd
22:52
Speaker 2: like to be able to open the door up and
22:54
Speaker 2: not invite all the insects in. They can do that
22:57
Speaker 2: for you as well, and again they do after hours call.
23:00
Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
23:02
Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
23:06
Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help. And they do
23:09
Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh six thy five eight forty

23:19
Speaker 2: right after the break. All right, So the word weird
23:30
Speaker 2: has been getting thrown around a lot by folks on
23:33
Speaker 2: the left. The vice presidential pick Tim Walls is one
23:39
Speaker 2: Governor Walls, he's using the word weird to describe Republicans
23:43
Speaker 2: an odd choice, a weird choice to me and I
23:48
Speaker 2: thought it would be worth digging into a little bit
23:50
Speaker 2: of research on the word weird, and a you gov
23:55
Speaker 2: poll basically says that nearly half of Americans say they
23:59
Speaker 2: consider that themselves to be weird. This hasn't nothing to
24:03
Speaker 2: do with politics, by the way. According to the poll,
24:06
Speaker 2: forty eight percent of American see themselves is very weird
24:09
Speaker 2: or somewhat weird, compared to forty three percent who say
24:11
Speaker 2: that they're not very weird or not weird at all.
24:15
Speaker 2: When broken down by political persuasion, this is what I
24:18
Speaker 2: was interested about, and liberals more likely than conservatives to
24:22
Speaker 2: label themselves weird sixty nine percent to thirty nine percent.
24:26
Speaker 2: Isn't it odd that this became an attack strategy for
24:30
Speaker 2: the left to come out and say when it's it's
24:33
Speaker 2: it's their base. I was trying to make this point
24:35
Speaker 2: the other day that a lot of their base I
24:39
Speaker 2: would think, would self identifies weird, and according to this
24:41
Speaker 2: Yugov poll, it certainly seems to agree with that. You
24:46
Speaker 2: may have heard social media was, you know, it's been ozimpic,
24:50
Speaker 2: and then it became oate zempic, where people were you know,
24:54
Speaker 2: soaking oats and then you know, you eat them and
24:57
Speaker 2: then try to let it make you more full. Now
25:00
Speaker 2: there's a new rice zimpic diet plan. The idea it's
25:05
Speaker 2: uncooked rice gets soaked in warm water and then you
25:07
Speaker 2: strain it. Then you add lime or lemon juice and
25:11
Speaker 2: drink the starchy water left behind. And I guess that's
25:13
Speaker 2: what they were doing with the oat water. Some folks
25:17
Speaker 2: say it helps with weight loss by making you feel fuller.
25:20
Speaker 2: It has the same sort of effect as ozempic, except
25:23
Speaker 2: it's not a drug. There's no real evidence that it works.
25:27
Speaker 2: But the starch and rice they say, does have some benefits,
25:32
Speaker 2: regulates blood sugar and proves gut health. It's not a
25:36
Speaker 2: magic weight loss potient though, but they do say that
25:39
Speaker 2: that resistant starch in there could be beneficial if the
25:43
Speaker 2: thought of oat or rice water isn't your thing. Though.
25:46
Speaker 2: There's also tadpole water. They also say that the chai seeds,
25:53
Speaker 2: if you put them in your water, they say it's
25:59
Speaker 2: called tad water because the chai seeds expand and look
26:03
Speaker 2: like little, you know, tadpoles swimming in there. So it's
26:08
Speaker 2: not really tadpole water. But I mean the fact that
26:12
Speaker 2: they're calling it that. And then it's got the seeds
26:15
Speaker 2: kind of look like that. It's a weird texture, has
26:18
Speaker 2: an interesting taste to it. But they say that people
26:21
Speaker 2: can lose weight by drinking that. I think if you're
26:25
Speaker 2: drinking water, you're really putting in the water. It helps
26:28
Speaker 2: you feel fall anyway, whatever you put in the water,
26:31
Speaker 2: it's gonna be I mean, I'm not an expert on
26:33
Speaker 2: it water and losing weight, but come on, how about this.
26:38
Speaker 2: You walk through the mall and then you get that
26:40
Speaker 2: smell of the Anti Annie's Pretzels or Anti Ann. That's
26:44
Speaker 2: one of those mispronouncements. Is an anti Ann always add
26:47
Speaker 2: to anti but Anti Ann's Pretzels. The pretzel company says
26:54
Speaker 2: that you could have that intoxicating effect on people with
26:59
Speaker 2: a writs of their brand new signature fragrance called need
27:04
Speaker 2: Oh Day Pretzel. Anti Ann says that they've captured the
27:09
Speaker 2: essence of that delicious, sweet buttery scent in a bottle
27:12
Speaker 2: and now you can smell like the experience of passing
27:14
Speaker 2: an Anti Ann store and inhaling the nostalgic aroma of
27:19
Speaker 2: their pretzels. Need Oh Day Pretzel will go on sale
27:25
Speaker 2: in August fourteenth and can be purchased online at antianns
