Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
- 0:05Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, twenty third day of April. I'm West thanks
- 0:13Speaker 2: for joining me zipping on through the week. Aren't we
- 0:18Speaker 2: just flying by? Flying by? Getting closer and closer to
- 0:24Speaker 2: the month of May. It's astonishing to me that we're
- 0:28Speaker 2: made it this far into the year so quickly, And
- 0:31Speaker 2: I know, I guess it feels like maybe three months ago.
- 0:35Speaker 2: I was saying this about the same time of year,
- 0:38Speaker 2: a year ago, because we get into these final few
- 0:42Speaker 2: weeks of school four and a half weeks, I guess
- 0:45Speaker 2: they've got left for many in the area, some less
- 0:49Speaker 2: than that, and then you know it'll be summer. Summer
- 0:55Speaker 2: goes by fast, you know it does. It's a very
- 0:58Speaker 2: rapid I feel like it's just a full scale, heavy footed,
- 1:05Speaker 2: you know, heavy footed gas straight to the floor, and
- 1:12Speaker 2: all of a sudden they're starting back to school again.
- 1:14Speaker 2: And that's just kind of how it's Labor Day before
- 1:16Speaker 2: we know it. Not quite ready to start talking about
- 1:19Speaker 2: dragon Con yet. Don't worry, that's not where I was
- 1:21Speaker 2: teasing up. Although we will be talking about dragon Con
- 1:24Speaker 2: again very very soon, and we'll have our coverage as
- 1:30Speaker 2: always with the Dragon Con pregame show two hundred plus
- 1:34Speaker 2: radio stations around the state. Maybe I'm going to talk
- 1:36Speaker 2: a little bit about it, but with our coverage this year,
- 1:39Speaker 2: as always sponsored by Columbus State University's Coca Cola Space
- 1:43Speaker 2: Science Center, the science behind the fiction, Baby, you can
- 1:47Speaker 2: do that there, all right. I'm not ready to talk
- 1:50Speaker 2: about that yet. I'm just kind of thinking about opining,
- 1:55Speaker 2: just sitting here, going, hey, it's already almost May. How
- 1:58Speaker 2: do we do that? So we do twenty three days deep.
- 2:01Speaker 2: We just kind of fly on through and next thing
- 2:04Speaker 2: you know, it's May and it's Sinco de Mayo and
- 2:09Speaker 2: schools out all that fun stuff. So speaking of schools,
- 2:14Speaker 2: we finally are getting a little bit of insight into
- 2:17Speaker 2: where the Supreme Court is concerning the religious liberty and
- 2:23Speaker 2: story books in elementary schools in this coming, just like
- 2:30Speaker 2: on the heels of Supreme Court in the UK deciding
- 2:35Speaker 2: on biology when it comes to what a woman is,
- 2:40Speaker 2: what defines a woman? And it's interesting that it had
- 2:45Speaker 2: to get to that. It's interesting it had to go
- 2:47Speaker 2: to that. A lot of people wondering if maybe we're
- 2:50Speaker 2: going to get to that point here where we're going
- 2:51Speaker 2: to actually have to have our Supreme Court make a
- 2:53Speaker 2: decision on what constitutes a male and a female. You
- 3:02Speaker 2: know my position on a lot of these things. If
- 3:06Speaker 2: you've listened to me for any length of time, I
- 3:09Speaker 2: am a firm advocate for you live your life in
- 3:18Speaker 2: the best way that you see fit. I'm pro that
- 3:22Speaker 2: I think people should have the ability to make decisions
- 3:25Speaker 2: in their life, even if they are decisions that I
- 3:30Speaker 2: or others may deem bad decisions. You should still be
- 3:36Speaker 2: able to make those decisions unless they have a negative
- 3:40Speaker 2: impact on others, or unless you try to force others
- 3:47Speaker 2: to actively be a part of whatever it is that
- 3:50Speaker 2: you're doing, even if it's a bad decision and they
- 3:54Speaker 2: disagree with it. See, that's where I draw the line
- 3:56Speaker 2: on things. There's a number of things that people I
- 4:00Speaker 2: know will do and I just think, why would you
- 4:06Speaker 2: do this? But it's not my place to say that
- 4:10Speaker 2: they shouldn't be able to do it if it doesn't
- 4:15Speaker 2: hurt someone else. Now, there are some exceptions to that.
- 4:18Speaker 2: There are times where bad decisions do hurt other people
- 4:24Speaker 2: and do have a severe negative impact on people. And
- 4:30Speaker 2: in those cases, that's where I would say, you know,
- 4:38Speaker 2: maybe you shouldn't be doing that. Now. I'm not talking
- 4:41Speaker 2: about legal things necessarily. I just think that when we
- 4:45Speaker 2: say and do things that you have a right to
- 4:49Speaker 2: say or do and it hurts other people, maybe you
- 4:54Speaker 2: shouldn't have done it, and you shouldn't be shocked that
- 4:56Speaker 2: there might be consequences that go with it. I know
- 4:58Speaker 2: I'm talking to a lot of vague things, because I
- 5:00Speaker 2: want to be very clear on this. I think when
- 5:04Speaker 2: you tell someone to lie, right, you tell someone a lie.
- 5:09Speaker 2: I don't necessarily think that in every circumstance a lie.
- 5:13Speaker 2: I don't think a white lie should be against the law.
- 5:16Speaker 2: I think lying in court should be illegal. I think
- 5:19Speaker 2: lying about I don't know, pandemics and things certainly should
- 5:23Speaker 2: be illegal, especially when you know it kind of ends
- 5:26Speaker 2: up making you like basically a serial killer, right. I mean,
- 5:30Speaker 2: if you're lying about it and it's causing people to die,
- 5:33Speaker 2: you're definitely having a negative effect on them. They see,
- 5:36Speaker 2: that's different. That's different than no, those genes don't make
- 5:39Speaker 2: you look fat. I don't think that should be against
- 5:42Speaker 2: the law. I think it's wrong, I mean, not nice.
- 5:47Speaker 2: But I think there is a difference between those two things.
- 5:50Speaker 2: See I believe at my core, at my foundation of
- 5:55Speaker 2: my faith, that we should always try to do the
- 6:00Speaker 2: right thing, and it should be our intentions to do
- 6:04Speaker 2: the right thing and to do the good thing. But
- 6:06Speaker 2: I also understand that some of the good things that
- 6:09Speaker 2: I try to do and the bad things that I
- 6:11Speaker 2: try not to do aren't going to be mandated or
- 6:16Speaker 2: made illegal or prosecuted by our government. I do know
- 6:20Speaker 2: that there's a difference. There is on some things, other
- 6:26Speaker 2: things there's not. So as I have said, if you
- 6:32Speaker 2: were born biologically one gender and you have decided that
- 6:36Speaker 2: you would like to live biologically as a different gender
- 6:41Speaker 2: and that's what makes you happy and it doesn't hurt
- 6:44Speaker 2: other people, Okay, then I think that. And that includes
- 6:51Speaker 2: you know, you deciding you're going to compete in sports
- 6:53Speaker 2: against them and dominate. That also includes, I don't know,
- 7:01Speaker 2: maybe forcing people to read books, that forcing or putting
- 7:09Speaker 2: people into activities associated with books that may have a
- 7:13Speaker 2: negative impact on children or families. That includes taking custody
- 7:21Speaker 2: of children away from parents because they don't want to
- 7:25Speaker 2: accept that a child who is too young to make
- 7:27Speaker 2: this kind of decision that has been encouraged by a
- 7:32Speaker 2: teacher to make a decision to live a different life,
- 7:35Speaker 2: and then suddenly you've got a state that says we're
- 7:37Speaker 2: going to take custody of this child. You're endangering this child. Yeah,
- 7:44Speaker 2: that's where we start to have problems. That's where things
- 7:46Speaker 2: start to get complicated. If it doesn't affect people, live
- 7:49Speaker 2: your life, Go be happy, you go be you. When
- 7:54Speaker 2: you come to me and you say you have to
- 7:57Speaker 2: actively encourage this behavior, you have to say that it's
- 8:02Speaker 2: not only okay, you now have to say that you
- 8:08Speaker 2: encourage it, you support it, and you want everybody to
- 8:13Speaker 2: live in whatever world that they want to live in,
- 8:16Speaker 2: and that you would do everything you can to encourage
- 8:18Speaker 2: them to do it. Whereas I just say, you be
- 8:22Speaker 2: you and let me be me. I don't ask you.
- 8:26Speaker 2: I don't ask everyone to live exactly the same life
- 8:30Speaker 2: that I do. I don't put my expectations on others.
- 8:33Speaker 2: I don't I would like to think that others. It's
- 8:38Speaker 2: the very nature of being part of an evangelical faith.
- 8:44Speaker 2: It is you want others to feel the same way
- 8:46Speaker 2: that you do. You want others to experience what you've experienced.
- 8:49Speaker 2: That's what we as Christians hope for. But I also
- 8:54Speaker 2: understand I don't have a right to force someone else
- 8:57Speaker 2: to do that. That's not the way it works. You know,
- 9:04Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say that. It's a I think there's
- 9:07Speaker 2: a great message to the movie Bruce Almighty. It talks
- 9:10Speaker 2: about free will, talks about trying to get someone to
- 9:14Speaker 2: love you without forcing them to love you, and that's
- 9:17Speaker 2: kind of the nature of things in it. God could
- 9:20Speaker 2: have made us without free will, but he chose to
- 9:23Speaker 2: give us free will because he does want us to
- 9:25Speaker 2: make these decisions and make these choices to follow him.
- 9:29Speaker 2: That's me at the core. Okay, with that said, let's
- 9:33Speaker 2: go back to these classrooms, because I think what we're
- 9:38Speaker 2: seeing here in some of these classrooms, as we now
- 9:42Speaker 2: have a Supreme Court is taking on this case where
- 9:47Speaker 2: you have Montgomery County and Maryland. The school board had
- 9:52Speaker 2: decided to withdraw an opt out policy for books that
- 9:56Speaker 2: related to sexuality, related to gender, gender swapping, gender affirming things,
- 10:06Speaker 2: and the parents there say, some of them, I want
- 10:11Speaker 2: to opt out based on religious reasons. And this is
- 10:16Speaker 2: where we now have a Supreme Court that's a little
- 10:19Speaker 2: split on this, but here we go Justice Soto, Mayor
- 10:27Speaker 2: and some of the other liberals. Of course, took the
- 10:30Speaker 2: side of the county. Soto mayor says they never reached
- 10:34Speaker 2: the issue of whether or not there was a disruption
- 10:39Speaker 2: or what the motive was for taking away the opt out.
- 10:43Speaker 2: What they decided was that there wasn't coercion here, that
- 10:47Speaker 2: there was mere exposure. I understood from the record that
- 10:52Speaker 2: that was all that was required, is that the books
- 10:53Speaker 2: be put on a bookshelf. If that's all that's required,
- 10:56Speaker 2: is that coercion. However, you had Justice Alito, what's the
- 11:03Speaker 2: big deal about allowing them to opt out of this?
- 11:07Speaker 2: He went on to say, I don't think anybody can
- 11:10Speaker 2: and this is talking about the books that deal with
- 11:16Speaker 2: same sex marriage as well. He says, I don't think
- 11:18Speaker 2: anybody can read and say, well, this is just telling
- 11:21Speaker 2: children that there are occasions where men marry other men.
- 11:25Speaker 2: It has a clear moral message, and it may be
- 11:28Speaker 2: a good message. It's just a message that a lot
- 11:30Speaker 2: of religious people disagree with. And then we also had
- 11:41Speaker 2: I think one of the liberal justices actually popped in
- 11:44Speaker 2: and made a comment. Yeah, Kagan said basically that she thinks.
- 11:51Speaker 2: She says, I was struck by these young kids picture
- 11:54Speaker 2: books on matters concerning sexuality. I suspect there are a
- 11:59Speaker 2: lot of non religion parents who weren't too thrilled about this.
- 12:04Speaker 2: I suspect that that would be correct. The newest member
- 12:10Speaker 2: of the fraternity, Justice, do you have to say brown?
- 12:15Speaker 2: Can you just say Jackson? She talks about transgender students
- 12:19Speaker 2: in the classroom? What about them? There's a student who's
- 12:22Speaker 2: in the class Must the teacher notify the other parents
- 12:24Speaker 2: of the student's existence and give them an opt out
- 12:28Speaker 2: to not be in the same classroom with this child?
- 12:31Speaker 2: Herein is that flawed tactic of debate. It's interesting to
- 12:36Speaker 2: me you can become a justice of the Supreme Court
- 12:39Speaker 2: and you can't handle basic debate skills because this isn't
- 12:43Speaker 2: really a valid complaint about the situation. Okay, So what
- 12:48Speaker 2: this is about is there have been cases where in
- 12:52Speaker 2: some of the classrooms, the kids are being asked questions
- 12:55Speaker 2: like what color do you feel like? Is the color
- 13:00Speaker 2: that you feel like pink? And you're a boy, well,
- 13:02Speaker 2: maybe you were in the wrong body. Like these kinds
- 13:05Speaker 2: of things are happening in classrooms. The idea that kids
- 13:13Speaker 2: have access to, in some cases, incredibly vulgar books describing
- 13:20Speaker 2: sex acts. Now, in this particular case, I don't know
- 13:24Speaker 2: that they're specifically hitting on some of those books, but
- 13:27Speaker 2: we've heard the argument from the left that they want
- 13:30Speaker 2: that Republicans want to ban these books because they don't
- 13:33Speaker 2: like the content of them. It's not a matter of
- 13:35Speaker 2: banning the books. You have to understand there's a difference
- 13:38Speaker 2: between banning a book from existing in the world saying
- 13:43Speaker 2: that we must go into bookstores and go into people's
- 13:46Speaker 2: home libraries and take copies of the books that describe,
- 13:50Speaker 2: you know, children having sex with each other and burn them.
- 13:55Speaker 2: There's a difference between that and maybe don't put them
- 13:58Speaker 2: in the children's section in the public library, maybe don't
- 14:02Speaker 2: put them in the school libraries at all. You see,
- 14:08Speaker 2: going back to this idea of evangelical Christians in some ways,
- 14:14Speaker 2: as much as we're pretending that the LGBTQ plus community
- 14:19Speaker 2: isn't kind of a religion, because this is a very
- 14:24Speaker 2: evangelical thing that they're doing. They're doing outreach. They're trying
- 14:28Speaker 2: to find these kids in the classroom, and maybe it's
- 14:33Speaker 2: with good intentions that they want to say, look, if
- 14:35Speaker 2: there's kids that have these repressed feelings, they're in the
- 14:39Speaker 2: wrong body. We just want to help them that's all
- 14:43Speaker 2: we want to do, is we want to help them. Well,
- 14:47Speaker 2: first of all, they're children. Parents should be involved. Parents
- 14:52Speaker 2: should almost exclusively be involved. There are very few exceptions
- 14:56Speaker 2: where we need to involve. School teachers know what the
- 15:00Speaker 2: stats are showing. But we know what they've done in
- 15:02Speaker 2: a number of states in the Southeast. We know that
- 15:06Speaker 2: this is something that's not being allowed to happen in
- 15:08Speaker 2: a few states at all under a certain age. We're
- 15:12Speaker 2: not gonna do this. But it does seem to me
- 15:18Speaker 2: as much as we have gone through this process of
- 15:21Speaker 2: trying to tell Christians that they shouldn't be evangelical with
- 15:27Speaker 2: what was once considered you know, hey, it's in the Bible.
- 15:33Speaker 2: It says don't do this. It's part of the New Covenant.
- 15:38Speaker 2: We're not supposed to do this, and we're not gonna
- 15:40Speaker 2: tell people not to do that. We're worried they might
- 15:42Speaker 2: not show up for church. We're not gonna tell them
- 15:45Speaker 2: that their particular sin because it's kind of a popular
- 15:48Speaker 2: one right now. We're not gonna tell them that that's wrong.
- 15:51Speaker 2: We're gonna tell them we're gonna ignore that one. We're
- 15:54Speaker 2: just gonna pretend like that one's not really a problem,
- 15:58Speaker 2: and we're gonna let people confuse the Old Covenant and
- 16:00Speaker 2: the New Covenant. We're gonna let people say, ah, but
- 16:03Speaker 2: we eat bacon. We need bacon. So maybe if it's
- 16:06Speaker 2: in the Old Testament, then it's okay, it's not a
- 16:09Speaker 2: big deal. And we're gonna confuse the fact that there's
- 16:13Speaker 2: some things that are in the Old Testament, old Old
- 16:17Speaker 2: Covenant that aren't part of the New Covenant, and there's
- 16:19Speaker 2: some things that are both, and we're just gonna pretend
- 16:23Speaker 2: like it's okay in the church so that we'll don't
- 16:28Speaker 2: scare people away. And then it's it's caused a lot
- 16:33Speaker 2: of Christians to kind of back down on the whole
- 16:37Speaker 2: evangelical thing because I think, oh, man, I don't want
- 16:40Speaker 2: people to think of me as like like what they did.
- 16:42Speaker 2: I don't want them to do to me what they
- 16:44Speaker 2: did to star Lord. You know Chris Pratt. Oh, he
- 16:47Speaker 2: goes to a church that says it's a sin to
- 16:49Speaker 2: be gay. Oh, we can't like that guy anymore. We
- 16:53Speaker 2: can't like his movies. However, we got these books and classrooms,
- 16:59Speaker 2: we got teachers that are trying to push it. It's
- 17:01Speaker 2: kind of it's kind of a religion, isn't it. I
- 17:05Speaker 2: told you that climate science is certainly a religion. We've
- 17:08Speaker 2: even got the street preachers screaming the end of the
- 17:10Speaker 2: world is near. We're all gonna die, We're all gonna
- 17:14Speaker 2: burn up and a fiery hell. They don't say hell.
- 17:17Speaker 2: What they say Earth is going to catch themment that
- 17:19Speaker 2: will they just burn to death on earth. The beachfront
- 17:23Speaker 2: properties will be underwater while you know, politicians are buying
- 17:26Speaker 2: beachfront property, the same one screaming that it's all Is
- 17:31Speaker 2: that a way you drive the price down? Oh no,
- 17:33Speaker 2: I don't want to have beachfront property anymore. I should
- 17:35Speaker 2: sell it. I'll sell it to a former president. You
- 17:38Speaker 2: know those kind of things. The same one screaming about
- 17:41Speaker 2: how it's all anyway. Yeah, I don't. I don't like
- 17:46Speaker 2: the idea at all of classrooms where they're going to
- 17:52Speaker 2: be ask questions like what color do you associate with? Well,
- 17:57Speaker 2: that might mean this, and don't tell your parents. So
- 18:03Speaker 2: it's promising. The Supreme Court seems to be going in
- 18:05Speaker 2: a certain direction on this. We'll see where this all
- 18:08Speaker 2: goes as we get further along with all of it.
- 18:10Speaker 2: There's a few pretty big ones coming up from the
- 18:12Speaker 2: Supreme Court, and this is certainly one. But if you're
- 18:15Speaker 2: going to make the argument that there's a trans child
- 18:18Speaker 2: in the room, you have to opt out of being
- 18:20Speaker 2: in the room with them. No, No, I don't think
- 18:24Speaker 2: anybody's arguing for that. I think they're just arguing for
- 18:27Speaker 2: what might be perceived by some parents as an evangelical
- 18:32Speaker 2: movement to get kids to read books and start thinking
- 18:36Speaker 2: of things the way that the LGBTQ plus community sees things.
- 18:41Speaker 2: Today's show brought to you by Columbus State Universities Coca
- 18:44Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center, inspiring and educating the youth and
- 18:49Speaker 2: future STEM leaders and STEM career holders that really of
- 18:55Speaker 2: all ages. I mean, they do it for school age
- 18:58Speaker 2: kids as school age kids visit the Coca Cola Space
- 19:00Speaker 2: Science Center, but they also do it through their university
- 19:03Speaker 2: programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics, and the
- 19:09Speaker 2: careers in space and STEM fields are booming right now,
- 19:13Speaker 2: and you can learn more about maybe getting your degree
- 19:17Speaker 2: on their website CCSSC dot org. While you're there, also
- 19:23Speaker 2: check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got this
- 19:26Speaker 2: incredible collaboration that they do with the SCHWOB School of
- 19:31Speaker 2: Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome.
- 19:34Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 19:38Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 19:40Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 19:44Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
- 19:49Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
- 19:53Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center and the new season of Music
- 19:57Speaker 2: under the Dome. Check out Upcoming Day for the shows,
- 20:01Speaker 2: and also check out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up.
- 20:04Speaker 2: Where you can get outside. Sometimes you do it at
- 20:07Speaker 2: the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere
- 20:11Speaker 2: outside the city lights. You don't want any light interference,
- 20:14Speaker 2: and you can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night events.
- 20:17Speaker 2: Also on their website, it's CCSSC dot org. As Sean
- 20:21Speaker 2: Cruisin says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I just
- 20:26Speaker 2: remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science
- 20:30Speaker 2: Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by
- 20:34Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus for all of your garage
- 20:37Speaker 2: door needs commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
- 20:44Speaker 2: that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance
- 20:47Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 20:50Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 20:54Speaker 2: care of squaring that away for you, and while they're there,
- 20:57Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
- 20:59Speaker 2: maybe cops medic changes you'd like to make to your
- 21:01Speaker 2: garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you
- 21:05Speaker 2: want it to be and you need some repair work
- 21:08Speaker 2: done to the outside door. Maybe you need a brand
- 21:10Speaker 2: new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when
- 21:14Speaker 2: your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort
- 21:17Speaker 2: of insulation issue that you've got. With colder or warmer weather,
- 21:21Speaker 2: sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're
- 21:25Speaker 2: looking at a situation where you'd like to add a
- 21:27Speaker 2: screen door to your garage door system that you can
- 21:30Speaker 2: put down and you can use your garage space as
- 21:33Speaker 2: a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you
- 21:36Speaker 2: like to work on your own cars in there, or
- 21:38Speaker 2: maybe you just want a little man cavid. You'd like
- 21:41Speaker 2: to be able to open the door up and not
- 21:43Speaker 2: invite all the insects in. They can do that for
- 21:46Speaker 2: you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
- 21:48Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
- 21:51Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
- 21:54Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, and they do
- 21:57Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh six orty five hundred seven

- 22:05Speaker 2: Columbus dot com More West Carol Morning Show. Right after
- 22:08Speaker 2: the break well, two of my very dear friends, Jennifer
- 22:21Speaker 2: and Brandon Dunlap, have opened a pizza place in Columbus.
- 22:25Speaker 2: If you're not listening in the Chattahoochee Valley area, it
- 22:28Speaker 2: doesn't really apply to you. Sorry. I mean maybe if
- 22:31Speaker 2: you've got friends here, you could tell them to go
- 22:34Speaker 2: check it out. They opened up a new pizza place
- 22:37Speaker 2: in Midland and it's called Slice. Slice Columbus dot com
- 22:43Speaker 2: is their website. I went there for lunch yesterday, first
- 22:47Speaker 2: time I've been in there. They had kind of a
- 22:48Speaker 2: soft open and the next thing you know, they were
- 22:50Speaker 2: wide open for business. It is new pizza place, new
- 22:57Speaker 2: take on the way to do it. You walk in
- 22:59Speaker 2: the door, you're going to see I would say this.
- 23:03Speaker 2: If you're a video gamer, you're gonna like it when
- 23:05Speaker 2: you walk in the door. If you've got kids that
- 23:07Speaker 2: are gamers, they're gonna like the graphics. If they're into
- 23:12Speaker 2: even just anime fans, they're gonna like the decoration. If
- 23:17Speaker 2: you will, you walk in, and I mean it's the
- 23:21Speaker 2: first thing that's going to grab your attention as you
- 23:23Speaker 2: go in is going to be the painting on the walls.
- 23:27Speaker 2: And I had lunch yesterday. They've got a two slice
- 23:31Speaker 2: and a drink ten dollars deal for lunch. I think
- 23:34Speaker 2: from eleven until two, My buddy Brandon was behind the counter.
- 23:39Speaker 2: He and another guy were making pizzas. Fantastic lunch, fantastic
- 23:44Speaker 2: overall experience, and I highly recommend you check them out.
- 23:49Speaker 2: It's Slice is the name of the restaurant Slice Columbus
- 23:53Speaker 2: dot com, and they are in the Midland area. There's
- 23:57Speaker 2: a I guess it's okay to say it's if you
- 24:00Speaker 2: There used to be a pizza place in this location, Lapoma,
- 24:04Speaker 2: I think was the name of it. I never actually
- 24:07Speaker 2: went there to that particular place, but I'm very happy
- 24:11Speaker 2: to say that I have been to Slice, and you
- 24:12Speaker 2: should definitely check them out and in the Midlandaria Slice
- 24:16Speaker 2: Columbus dot com. So check them out, tell them I
- 24:19Speaker 2: sent you and you won't be disappointed. I ever, wonder
- 24:23Speaker 2: why you instantly vibe with some people, The answer could
- 24:27Speaker 2: be your nose. According to a new study from Cornell University,
- 24:30Speaker 2: our sense of smell plays a big role in forming friendships.
- 24:35Speaker 2: Researchers discover that a person's natural scent, combined with their deodorant, perfume,
- 24:40Speaker 2: and others, can predict friendship chemistry better than their appearance.
- 24:47Speaker 2: It changes the notion of first impressions based on appearances.
- 24:51Speaker 2: It seems at least that the nose nose. If you
- 24:53Speaker 2: got dogs, or if you've ever had a dog, you
- 24:56Speaker 2: know there's an importance to the smelling, right. Are you
- 25:01Speaker 2: looking for a date or you're looking for validation. The
- 25:04Speaker 2: latest dating app habit is called ego scrolling. It's where
- 25:09Speaker 2: you are using dating apps not so much as to
- 25:12Speaker 2: find the one, but to feel good about yourself. It's
- 25:15Speaker 2: all about that rush of getting compliments from people. According
- 25:19Speaker 2: to the CEO of the dating app after Katie Disnake,
- 25:26Speaker 2: maybe ego scrolling is all about getting that self esteem
- 25:30Speaker 2: boost from matches, whether without having to have the emotional
- 25:34Speaker 2: investment involved. Basically, it's a way to feel desirable without
- 25:38Speaker 2: the risk of rejection. It's almost like window shopping for
- 25:42Speaker 2: love without the intention to buy, she says. So the
- 25:46Speaker 2: reason it's happening, she believes that it's a surge in
- 25:49Speaker 2: ego scrolling based on the widespread loneliness and an overall
- 25:52Speaker 2: feeling of stress and sadness among young adults. I think
- 25:56Speaker 2: it may also be the fact that this is something
- 25:59Speaker 2: that we're now doing outside of the dating world. I mean,
- 26:05Speaker 2: what are we doing on social media when we post
- 26:07Speaker 2: about politics other than this very thing. The silliness of
- 26:11Speaker 2: going on too social media and posting some sort of
- 26:15Speaker 2: a view on politics, assuming that we're going to somehow
- 26:20Speaker 2: win people over, you know, like someone's going to read
- 26:24Speaker 2: it and go, you know what, I used to feel
- 26:26Speaker 2: this way about Trump, but this changes everything is absurd
- 26:31Speaker 2: because that's not what's going to happen. But people do
- 26:33Speaker 2: it because of this sort of ego thing. I mean,
- 26:36Speaker 2: that's what it is. You post it because you're hoping
- 26:39Speaker 2: either to get in a fight with someone and you
- 26:41Speaker 2: can make yourself feel like you want because you're right,
- 26:44Speaker 2: or you're doing it because you're looking for other people
- 26:47Speaker 2: to jump in and go, hell yeah, you're absolutely right, yeah,
- 26:50Speaker 2: And it's a boost of that ego. So I think
- 26:53Speaker 2: that's what it is as much as anything else. I
- 26:55Speaker 2: think people are just that's something that they're trying to
- 26:59Speaker 2: get And this is another way I think that people
- 27:03Speaker 2: get that. How is your partner's name saved in your phone?
- 27:06Speaker 2: Pet name, nickname, full legal name? According to relationship experts,
- 27:11Speaker 2: it could be a window into your relationship. A nickname
- 27:14Speaker 2: or pet name can indicate a more personal, intimate relationship,
- 27:18Speaker 2: while having your partner on your phone with a full
- 27:20Speaker 2: name could be seen as colder and more formal. Sometimes
- 27:24Speaker 2: the practical approach is more prudent. You don't want sugar
- 27:27Speaker 2: Boo popping up at work, during a presentation or in
- 27:33Speaker 2: case of an emergency. I got a doctor, a friend
- 27:38Speaker 2: who's a doctor who I was at an appointment and
- 27:42Speaker 2: we were talking and his phone rang and I saw
- 27:44Speaker 2: the word WiFi pop up on the screen. And then
- 27:47Speaker 2: it was a few months later I met his wife
- 27:50Speaker 2: for the first time out and I said something about
- 27:55Speaker 2: the time that his phone rang and WiFi popped up,
- 27:58Speaker 2: and they both got a little embarrass at it, and
- 28:00Speaker 2: I think it's for these reasons. Let me just say this,
- 28:03Speaker 2: all right, for some of us whose brains function the
- 28:07Speaker 2: way that mind functions, all right, I'll just say that
- 28:10Speaker 2: we like to have consistency with the way that they
- 28:14Speaker 2: So if everyone else is not in there by nickname,
- 28:17Speaker 2: why would my wife be in there by nickname? Why
- 28:19Speaker 2: would my children not just be in there by their
- 28:22Speaker 2: full name? Because that's efficient and that's just how my
- 28:26Speaker 2: brain works. That'll do it for this Wednesday edition of
- 28:29Speaker 2: the show. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons. Thank you
