- 0:01Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
- 0:05Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, eleventh day of August. I am Wes. Thanks
- 0:18Speaker 2: for joining me. It feels like there's a lot to cover,
- 0:23Speaker 2: but I don't know that I can do any of
- 0:25Speaker 2: it full justice if I try to do it all,
- 0:29Speaker 2: so I'll just do a little bit of it. Maybe start.
- 0:33Speaker 2: I guess first and foremost with the fact that yesterday
- 0:37Speaker 2: we talked about there's two men who've declared for the
- 0:41Speaker 2: WNBA draft. I saw somewhere there was a story instead
- 0:46Speaker 2: a third one did. I haven't been able to find
- 0:49Speaker 2: that was factual. I've seen that a few places, but
- 0:52Speaker 2: two three However many you know, who knows, however many
- 0:58Speaker 2: eventually have or will or whatever. And I think back
- 1:02Speaker 2: to the point, the fact that this isn't really about
- 1:07Speaker 2: I don't think. I don't think either of them really
- 1:10Speaker 2: wants to play a season in the WNBA. But maybe
- 1:16Speaker 2: they do, and maybe that's what's needed to really make
- 1:19Speaker 2: a point. But I don't think there's anybody who has
- 1:23Speaker 2: any common sense thinks that anything other than it would
- 1:28Speaker 2: be really ugly if they did. And the best case
- 1:35Speaker 2: scenario for the WNBA if one of them were to
- 1:39Speaker 2: get actually drafted and play, is that every team have
- 1:43Speaker 2: a have a former NBA player on the team. That
- 1:47Speaker 2: would be the best bet for everybody involved, that every
- 1:51Speaker 2: one of the teams have won on the team. That
- 1:55Speaker 2: would be the way to try to balance it out.
- 1:59Speaker 2: But if they do that, it would accomplish the goal
- 2:02Speaker 2: of these men that are saying that we're women and
- 2:07Speaker 2: we want to play, and by your rules, all we
- 2:11Speaker 2: have to do really is be women, and by your logic,
- 2:15Speaker 2: we just have to say that we're women. Therefore we're women.
- 2:20Speaker 2: And there as we talked about yesterday, and I'm not
- 2:22Speaker 2: going to go too far into this, but just the
- 2:24Speaker 2: point that they're trying to make, I think and I
- 2:29Speaker 2: believe that. And as cant Freedom has said that he
- 2:34Speaker 2: wants this league to thrive and he wants it to
- 2:36Speaker 2: do well. The other guy, White, I think that's his name,
- 2:41Speaker 2: said that he was looking for the story from yesterday.
- 2:45Speaker 2: It said he's running for some elected position, and I
- 2:48Speaker 2: think this is kind of part of all that, I
- 2:50Speaker 2: guess is part of the points being made there. But
- 2:56Speaker 2: ultimately what they are trying to do is with this
- 3:00Speaker 2: absurd idea of them playing in the WNBA is that
- 3:07Speaker 2: they are trying to push the issue of the league
- 3:11Speaker 2: being forced to actually do what a lot of people
- 3:15Speaker 2: have been asking of people on the left, and that is,
- 3:20Speaker 2: please just define what a woman is. And if they
- 3:26Speaker 2: will do that and give an actual definition that makes
- 3:31Speaker 2: some sort of sense, I think that the uh, I
- 3:37Speaker 2: think it will all go away. And I think that
- 3:41Speaker 2: that's the whole point of what they're doing, is that
- 3:43Speaker 2: they want to a Roys White is his name I
- 3:45Speaker 2: was looking for. I think the point is to do
- 3:50Speaker 2: that very thing, to just force this issue in a
- 3:53Speaker 2: way that gives us this definition of what it means.
- 4:00Speaker 2: And I know that there are some people who want
- 4:05Speaker 2: to live in this world where you know, you can
- 4:07Speaker 2: just be whatever you say you are, and I think
- 4:11Speaker 2: there needs to be some clarification on this difference between
- 4:18Speaker 2: you want to live your life a certain way and
- 4:20Speaker 2: say that that's who you are and that's who you
- 4:22Speaker 2: want to be. Okay, that's one thing, And this is
- 4:27Speaker 2: where I think the deviation has gotten has happened, is
- 4:31Speaker 2: that people could do that. You could live your life
- 4:34Speaker 2: that way and just say this is who I'm going
- 4:36Speaker 2: to be, whether you actually make a physical change to
- 4:40Speaker 2: your body, or this is just a this is how
- 4:43Speaker 2: I would like to live, versus this notion of everyone
- 4:48Speaker 2: else has to participate in all of this, and that's
- 4:53Speaker 2: been the real divide, right And I have said here
- 4:55Speaker 2: many times I will be polite, I will respect whatever
- 4:59Speaker 2: it is that and I know some people who won't
- 5:02Speaker 2: do that. I don't have a problem with you be
- 5:06Speaker 2: You live your life, You get one shot at this.
- 5:10Speaker 2: It's not my place to tell you how to live.
- 5:12Speaker 2: It's not my place to tell anyone how they're supposed
- 5:15Speaker 2: to live their life in the United States of America, Okay,
- 5:21Speaker 2: other than you can't be a communist and you can't
- 5:24Speaker 2: want sharia law, Like those are things that I don't
- 5:26Speaker 2: think you should be able to do in America, right,
- 5:31Speaker 2: I don't think that. Or you could be a communist
- 5:33Speaker 2: if you want, but you can't try to overthrow our
- 5:37Speaker 2: current system of government to try to make those two
- 5:39Speaker 2: things happen. That's it to me, Like, that's about as
- 5:44Speaker 2: far as I'll go with it. There's a lot of
- 5:46Speaker 2: things I wish it didn't happen. There's a lot of
- 5:48Speaker 2: things that I wish people would would not do. There's
- 5:51Speaker 2: a lot of things that are sacred and precious that
- 5:53Speaker 2: we should treat as sacred and precious, and we don't.
- 5:58Speaker 2: And there's going to be people that aren't going to
- 6:00Speaker 2: do that because they're going to hide behind the law
- 6:03Speaker 2: or they're going to hide behind some you know, judge.
- 6:05Speaker 2: That makes it possible for things to happen, whatever it is,
- 6:11Speaker 2: and that's just the way it is. So there's my beliefs,
- 6:14Speaker 2: my things that I believe to be true, and then
- 6:19Speaker 2: there's what falls is true and the confines of the
- 6:22Speaker 2: law and the law. You know, you can go live
- 6:25Speaker 2: your life. You go be who you want to be.
- 6:29Speaker 2: You go live whatever lifestyle and whatever it is that
- 6:32Speaker 2: you want until you're hurting someone else or until you're
- 6:35Speaker 2: asking other people to participate in whatever it is. Now,
- 6:39Speaker 2: I think it's possible to be kind and polite and
- 6:43Speaker 2: do your best to not be rude to someone. And
- 6:47Speaker 2: if someone is just living their life, and even if
- 6:51Speaker 2: it's really obvious that maybe they've made a decision to
- 6:54Speaker 2: live a certain way, you could still be polite. That's
- 6:57Speaker 2: what they're asking. They tell you, you've known them this name,
- 7:00Speaker 2: and there are people that I have known by one
- 7:02Speaker 2: name and now they go by another name. And that's
- 7:05Speaker 2: I'm not going to intentionally call them by the wrong name, now, understand,
- 7:10Speaker 2: just like any name change. I've got kids that I
- 7:14Speaker 2: coached in sacer that went by one name, like a nickname,
- 7:19Speaker 2: and then they went by their full, longer name later,
- 7:22Speaker 2: and other people call them by that longer name and
- 7:24Speaker 2: I don't, And it's not to be difficult, it's just one.
- 7:29Speaker 2: They haven't specifically asked me to change what I call them.
- 7:32Speaker 2: But you know, if your name is and I'm just
- 7:35Speaker 2: giving as an example because I but if your name
- 7:37Speaker 2: is you know, if I've known you as Steve and
- 7:40Speaker 2: now you want to be Steven, you know, if it's
- 7:44Speaker 2: really important to you, I'll call you Steven. Otherwise you're
- 7:46Speaker 2: going to be Steve. And there's a few kids that
- 7:48Speaker 2: I coach that I gave them nicknames and that's what
- 7:50Speaker 2: I call them. I don't even call them by any
- 7:53Speaker 2: name given to them by their parents, because that's what
- 7:55Speaker 2: I call them. And until they tell me to stop.
- 7:59Speaker 2: That's uh, you know pretty much where we're at anyway,
- 8:04Speaker 2: Once you start asking other people to participate, once you
- 8:07Speaker 2: start asking other people to live by some set of
- 8:11Speaker 2: rules that you can't even define, and I think that's
- 8:14Speaker 2: a big part of where this whole thing has come.
- 8:17Speaker 2: And I feel like these two guys that are pushing
- 8:22Speaker 2: this issue or doing it to make the point that
- 8:25Speaker 2: tell us the rules. Stop changing the rules now, tell
- 8:29Speaker 2: us what the rules are, and then we can all function,
- 8:32Speaker 2: we can all live, we can all navigate our way
- 8:35Speaker 2: through society. We just want to know what the rules are.
- 8:37Speaker 2: Give us a definition. Now here's the other part of
- 8:41Speaker 2: this that I thought was interesting, as the movement now
- 8:46Speaker 2: on social media apparently is not as much these guys
- 8:55Speaker 2: can't play as much as it's we have to protect
- 9:01Speaker 2: the women in the league and that you can't let
- 9:05Speaker 2: these men play in the league so that we're able
- 9:09Speaker 2: to protect the women of the WNBA, including the trans women. What.
- 9:17Speaker 2: First of all, I don't know that the league has
- 9:19Speaker 2: any trans women in it, that's the first thing. But
- 9:25Speaker 2: the fact that they want to leave the door open
- 9:27Speaker 2: for transwomen just not these guys to be trans women. Now,
- 9:34Speaker 2: anyone paying attention to this story knows that these two
- 9:37Speaker 2: guys aren't actually living as women. They're saying it because
- 9:43Speaker 2: of the absurdity of if you say it, then it
- 9:45Speaker 2: becomes true. But it's just an interesting take to know
- 9:50Speaker 2: that there are people that that's their position, that they're
- 9:52Speaker 2: taking on it, that they are looking at this as well.
- 9:56Speaker 2: We got to protect the women in the league, including
- 9:58Speaker 2: the trans women. They're refusing to acknowledge anything other than
- 10:07Speaker 2: continuing on with what's been put forth to us. Other
- 10:12Speaker 2: thing I want to talk about is Fauci. Fauci's private
- 10:16Speaker 2: text messages. They got his old iPhone from twenty twenty
- 10:21Speaker 2: one and more cases more evidence, i should say, but
- 10:28Speaker 2: cases of conversations where they're talking about things concerning COVID
- 10:34Speaker 2: and the vaccine and the dangers involved, and what was
- 10:39Speaker 2: communicated to the public, what was being said in text
- 10:45Speaker 2: messages and behind closed doors versus what was actually being
- 10:49Speaker 2: communicated to the American people, and neglecting and ignoring the
- 10:56Speaker 2: need for I don't know safety. You're in the position
- 11:01Speaker 2: where you're supposed to be trying to help the American
- 11:03Speaker 2: people during this pandemic, and this mRNA vaccine comes along
- 11:10Speaker 2: and there's concerns about the safety of it, and there's
- 11:13Speaker 2: text messages where he's talking with people about the possibility
- 11:17Speaker 2: of I don't know, miscarriages from women in the first
- 11:20Speaker 2: trimester and acknowledgments that there was a study that was done,
- 11:27Speaker 2: you know about eight hundred in eight hundred cases of
- 11:35Speaker 2: vaccines eight hundred and twenty seven pregnancies. This is the
- 11:41Speaker 2: doctor tom Shimo Bokuro, June of twenty twenty one, New
- 11:47Speaker 2: England Journal of Medicine. And the acknowledgment of the fact
- 11:52Speaker 2: that there were eight hundred twenty seven pregnancies that were
- 11:57Speaker 2: exposed to mRNA vaccines and one hundred four had spontaneous abortions.
- 12:05Speaker 2: Is the term on the medical side, miscarriages. I'm not
- 12:11Speaker 2: a mathologist, but that's one in eight right close. That's
- 12:19Speaker 2: something that should be communicated, right, So where does the
- 12:24Speaker 2: benefit come in telling people no, no, no, your early
- 12:30Speaker 2: pregnancy you should still get vaccinated. What's the motivations with this?
- 12:37Speaker 2: I think these are the things that we really have
- 12:39Speaker 2: to find out, and I think this is why it's
- 12:42Speaker 2: important that you can ask him questions and not just
- 12:45Speaker 2: get plead the fifth answers. And that's the reason for
- 12:49Speaker 2: then moving forward on this contempt thing. And if Fauci
- 12:57Speaker 2: want to answer questions, how do we know what his
- 13:00Speaker 2: motivation was? Was it kickbacks and financial profiting off of
- 13:06Speaker 2: the vaccines? I mean, certainly seems like that could be
- 13:10Speaker 2: a motivation for telling people something different. Is it this
- 13:14Speaker 2: really sick thing that we have some people on the
- 13:18Speaker 2: left that have voiced over the years where it's like
- 13:23Speaker 2: that we're overpopulated, we're worried about the environment, We're worried
- 13:26Speaker 2: about the planet. We're overpopulated. If a pandemic were to
- 13:30Speaker 2: kill off a significant number of people, that could benefit
- 13:33Speaker 2: the numbers on the planet and help the environment. Is
- 13:37Speaker 2: that it is trying to cause these spontaneous abortions, these miscarriages.
- 13:44Speaker 2: Is this the motivation? Could that possibly be? It? Was
- 13:49Speaker 2: it about influencing and reshaping the election, shutting the country down,
- 13:56Speaker 2: and having an impact on what the American voter felt
- 13:59Speaker 2: about the then President Trump when the prior to the
- 14:05Speaker 2: twenty twenty election. I mean, what was the motivation by
- 14:09Speaker 2: all of this? Now, obviously this is twenty twenty one,
- 14:11Speaker 2: so this is post election. But my point is in
- 14:14Speaker 2: all of the coverage and all of the handling, and
- 14:17Speaker 2: all of the interviews and things that were done, the
- 14:20Speaker 2: real question is what was the motive or was it
- 14:24Speaker 2: all of these things? Was it a bit of some
- 14:26Speaker 2: of them? Was it you know, or is it something
- 14:28Speaker 2: else even more nefarious than those horrible things. You can't
- 14:33Speaker 2: get answers from the guy, so we can't get answers
- 14:36Speaker 2: to the basic questions of why what was going on?
- 14:39Speaker 2: Why was this happening? The other thing, of course, the
- 14:44Speaker 2: got some election stuff going on in Michigan, got this
- 14:52Speaker 2: woman who wants to be the governor of Michigan who
- 14:56Speaker 2: has said that the a lot of very socialists, very
- 15:02Speaker 2: communist things. But maybe the most ridiculous was that she
- 15:07Speaker 2: thought that it was time to get rid of Thanksgiving,
- 15:09Speaker 2: and then later when they asked her about Thanksgiving, she said, no, no,
- 15:12Speaker 2: that's my favorite holiday. It's interesting when you get in
- 15:15Speaker 2: a position and you realize the importance of wanting to
- 15:20Speaker 2: be considered for an elective office. This is one of
- 15:26Speaker 2: those things, Francesca Holk's her name, trying to separate from
- 15:31Speaker 2: those crazy ideas when you're on the cusp of maybe
- 15:33Speaker 2: getting to be the Democrat nominee. And I saw where
- 15:39Speaker 2: I think it was Glenn Younkin, the former governor of Virginia,
- 15:42Speaker 2: saying that a lot of these DSA candidates, particularly this one,
- 15:50Speaker 2: wants to deconstruct America's heartland. Yeah, that's a good way
- 15:54Speaker 2: to put it, I think also in the subject of
- 15:58Speaker 2: kind of taking things back at Alexandria Caesio Cortez, who
- 16:03Speaker 2: is trying to take back some of her wild things
- 16:07Speaker 2: that she said because she is now being considered by
- 16:11Speaker 2: many one of the possible candidates for a president for
- 16:15Speaker 2: the Democrats. So get ready. Now, now is going to begin.
- 16:19Speaker 2: I told you you know, we're going to get to
- 16:20Speaker 2: this point where you're gonna have these candidates are just
- 16:22Speaker 2: going to come out and say, yep, I'm a communist.
- 16:24Speaker 2: That's coming. But in her case, this is the beginning
- 16:28Speaker 2: of her back pedaling and all the flip flopping, like
- 16:31Speaker 2: all the things that she said. Now she's got to
- 16:34Speaker 2: start going backwards on all these things because nobody would
- 16:37Speaker 2: support her based on all the things that she said
- 16:39Speaker 2: in the past. So just keep that in mind. Get
- 16:41Speaker 2: ready to see a very different side of her as
- 16:44Speaker 2: people are going to start trying to figure out who
- 16:47Speaker 2: she is and can she really be a candidate for president?
- 16:50Speaker 2: Get ready for Dragon Con forty. It's the fortieth Dragon
- 16:56Speaker 2: Con and it happens Labor Day weekend in downtown Atlanta
- 17:00Speaker 2: September third through the seventh, and you can get ready

- 19:31Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 19:33Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 19:37Speaker 2: I mean this is a major city attraction that happens
- 19:42Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
- 19:46Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center and the new season of Music
- 19:50Speaker 2: under the Dome. Check out upcoming dates for the shows,
- 19:54Speaker 2: and also check out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up.
- 19:57Speaker 2: Where you can get outside. Sometimes time you do it
- 20:00Speaker 2: at the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside
- 20:04Speaker 2: somewhere outside the city lights. You don't want any light interference,
- 20:07Speaker 2: and you can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night
- 20:09Speaker 2: events Also on their website, it's CCSSC dot org. As
- 20:14Speaker 2: Sean Cruisin says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I
- 20:19Speaker 2: just remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space
- 20:22Speaker 2: Science Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you
- 20:27Speaker 2: by Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your
- 20:30Speaker 2: garage door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular
- 20:36Speaker 2: maintenance that it's time for. It's always good to get
- 20:39Speaker 2: maintenance on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 20:43Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 20:47Speaker 2: care of squaring that away. For you, and while they're there,
- 20:50Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
- 20:52Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
- 20:56Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
- 20:59Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
- 21:01Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
- 21:04Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
- 21:08Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
- 21:11Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather, Sometimes
- 21:15Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
- 21:18Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
- 21:21Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
- 21:23Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
- 21:27Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
- 21:30Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
- 21:32Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
- 21:34Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
- 21:36Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
- 21:39Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
- 21:42Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
- 21:44Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
- 21:47Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help and they do those
- 21:51Speaker 2: as well. Seven oh six very five eight forty five
- 21:53Speaker 2: hundred seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred
- 21:57Speaker 2: O dccolumbus dot com West Carol Morning Show right after
- 22:01Speaker 2: the break. So, with most of the stores transitioned over
- 22:13Speaker 2: from back to school to Halloween decorations, Home Depot has
- 22:19Speaker 2: apparently said, let's just get straight into the Christmas spirit,
- 22:24Speaker 2: and they've just kind of jumped ahead, and two of
- 22:27Speaker 2: their holiday decorations already sold out. The two hot items,
- 22:32Speaker 2: an eight and a half foot Santa carrying a lantern
- 22:36Speaker 2: and an also massive reindeer pulling a sleigh, both costing
- 22:40Speaker 2: three hundred dollars. Shoppers online complaining they missed their chance
- 22:44Speaker 2: to get one. Good news, though, is that Home Depot
- 22:48Speaker 2: is likely to restock them. The bad news apparently the
- 22:50Speaker 2: countdown to Christmas has already started, so there's still several
- 22:55Speaker 2: months to go. But that's where we are at this
- 22:58Speaker 2: point in things. And I know, oh, it does feel
- 23:03Speaker 2: like we're in this phase of like fast forwarding so
- 23:07Speaker 2: quickly on to the next thing. But I don't know,
- 23:14Speaker 2: I just feel like they're trying to capitalize as much
- 23:17Speaker 2: as they can on getting this early start on Christmas,
- 23:20Speaker 2: which is completely within their right. It is a free market.
- 23:23Speaker 2: Go for it, do what you gotta do. I'm sure
- 23:25Speaker 2: they still have some Halloween things in some of the stores,
- 23:30Speaker 2: but the what about Thanksgiving? People really can't be feeling
- 23:36Speaker 2: good about this because they're not just giving over Thanksgiving,
- 23:40Speaker 2: they're largely skipping over Halloween. And I don't know, I
- 23:43Speaker 2: just don't know about this as a strategy because people
- 23:46Speaker 2: spend a lot of money on those Halloween decorations and
- 23:49Speaker 2: I don't know if maybe they're in short supply this year.
- 23:54Speaker 2: I don't know, but hey, maybe you'll get your chance
- 23:58Speaker 2: to get some get enough eight and a half foot
- 24:01Speaker 2: tall Santa with a lantern. So we always hear how
- 24:05Speaker 2: tight money is, but people have money for those things.
- 24:08Speaker 2: So I got excited when I heard about this because
- 24:13Speaker 2: it's something that I have long done and it's not
- 24:17Speaker 2: information that you'd probably know. I don't know how much
- 24:20Speaker 2: I've ever talked about this, and it may not be
- 24:22Speaker 2: information that you really want or need to know, but
- 24:25Speaker 2: I'm gonna share it because when I saw the headline
- 24:28Speaker 2: for this story, I thought, huh, you got my attention,
- 24:31Speaker 2: And then I found out the specifics of it, and
- 24:33Speaker 2: I went, now, this is a lot less interesting. I
- 24:37Speaker 2: don't do this often, but I do occasionally. And I
- 24:39Speaker 2: know there's this tradition of some people will take a
- 24:42Speaker 2: beer in the shower. I don't have a lot of
- 24:46Speaker 2: beer in the house. I rarely have beer in the house.
- 24:49Speaker 2: I am a I don't usually use the word soda,
- 24:53Speaker 2: but I am a soda shower guy. I am a A.
- 24:56Speaker 2: I'll take a coke zero in the shower. Would be
- 24:58Speaker 2: sometimes depends on what time of day I'm having the shower,
- 25:03Speaker 2: and you know, if I've been doing some sort of
- 25:06Speaker 2: yard work or that kind of thing, which I think
- 25:08Speaker 2: is part of the way the whole shower beer works.
- 25:12Speaker 2: But I saw this headline and it said, you know,
- 25:15Speaker 2: soda shower and I thought, oh, that's got my attention.
- 25:19Speaker 2: But it's something very different as basically, PepsiCo, the company
- 25:24Speaker 2: that makes Pepsi, teamed up with the glam glam Light
- 25:29Speaker 2: only wish I'm getting this right because it looks like
- 25:31Speaker 2: it's two eyes, but then would be a type of
- 25:34Speaker 2: glam light I think is the company name, and it's
- 25:37Speaker 2: a beauty company and they have put together a body
- 25:40Speaker 2: care collection together turning two of their soft drink flavors
- 25:44Speaker 2: into skin products, Vanilla Slushy body scrub and Wild Cherry
- 25:48Speaker 2: body wash. And I guess they've spent five years doing
- 25:56Speaker 2: some work, doing some tweaks on these fragrances, trying to
- 25:59Speaker 2: three thousand fragrances they worked with to get it right.
- 26:02Speaker 2: And they say, if it's a success, the partnership won't
- 26:05Speaker 2: stop with Pepsi inspired makeup collections already in the works.
- 26:10Speaker 2: So I remember the I remember, I remember when I
- 26:13Speaker 2: was in school, some of the kids, the girls would
- 26:15Speaker 2: have like the Doctor Pepper flavored lip gloss, those kinds
- 26:20Speaker 2: of things. That's what it made me think of after
- 26:23Speaker 2: I thought about my fun My bride definitely enjoys finding
- 26:31Speaker 2: a partially consumed soft drink left over in the show
- 26:35Speaker 2: or why is this in here? Sometimes I forget and
- 26:38Speaker 2: I just leave it there and you know, don't ever
- 26:41Speaker 2: go back and finish it. Uh. So here is a
- 26:45Speaker 2: story that I saw this the other day and I thought,
- 26:48Speaker 2: I need to talk about this, and here's my chance
- 26:51Speaker 2: to do it, because I haven't done it yet. But
- 26:56Speaker 2: jet Star is an airline that I have flown in Australia.
- 26:59Speaker 2: They'd say, budget airline, and it's one of those like
- 27:04Speaker 2: when you're doing your trips into Australia and you think
- 27:07Speaker 2: you want to get there, you know on Quantus or
- 27:11Speaker 2: you know, Virgin one of the airlines that can get
- 27:16Speaker 2: you in, and it was some of the luxuries that
- 27:20Speaker 2: you want in a long trip is what I'm getting at.
- 27:22Speaker 2: And then when you're traveling around the country, Jetstar is
- 27:25Speaker 2: a perfectly fine option to get you from point A
- 27:28Speaker 2: to point B in the country when you know you
- 27:32Speaker 2: don't necessarily need, you know, all those great luxurious comforts
- 27:38Speaker 2: for a fourteen hour flight, It's what I'm saying. And
- 27:43Speaker 2: they're less expensive a budget airline truly. And they have
- 27:47Speaker 2: a new policy now where they're going to have passengers
- 27:50Speaker 2: paying extra to use the overhead storage bin on the plane.
- 27:57Speaker 2: The new policy will have travelers able to still bring
- 28:01Speaker 2: a small personal item for free that they can put
- 28:04Speaker 2: under their seat, but anything that goes in the overhead
- 28:06Speaker 2: compartment will require a paid priority carry on option fee
- 28:11Speaker 2: starting at about twenty five Australian dollars that's about eighteen
- 28:14Speaker 2: US on short flights, and it can reach up to
- 28:18Speaker 2: eighty six Australian which is sixty US on some international flights.
- 28:23Speaker 2: Jet Star says the move give customers more choice. They
- 28:26Speaker 2: always say that thought. They it's just about giving you
- 28:29Speaker 2: choice and it helps keep base fares low while reducing
- 28:33Speaker 2: competition for limited overhead bin space. That'll do it for
- 28:37Speaker 2: this Tuesday edition of the show. Thanks to our sponsors
- 28:40Speaker 2: and patrons. Thank you for listening. I'll catch you back
