  Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Friday morning, thirty, first day of October. I'm Wes, thanks
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: for joining me. All hallow zve It's Halloween. Here we are,
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: final day of October and the downhill slide into really
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: the holidays begins really tonight. I don't know, maybe midnight.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: I mean, do we count Halloween as part of the holidays.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: I think that would be nice. We could include that
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: as part of the holidays. Depends on what you're doing
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: for Halloween. You know, if you're sacrificing cats and stuff,
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: that's not really a family activity. Though we covered that already,
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: but we had the place overseas. It was not adopting
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: black cats because they were concerned about all that, and
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: you know, they know their community better than I do.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: I can't judge. Seems like a good plan if you
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: think that's going to be a problem. You know the
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: drill tonight it's Friday and it's Halloween, and that means
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: there will be probably more people on the roads, especially
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: late at night. The later you get into the into
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: the holiday, into the trigger treating. So you know, the drill,
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: you got small kids, you got kids period, somebody they
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: need an adult with them. I mean the big the
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: big kids going out. And I got nothing against the
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: big kids doing it. Nothing put some effort in where
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: some sort of a costume. I don't care, be six seven,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: I don't care. Just something that gives the impression that
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: some effort went into a costume. That's all. Nothing wrong
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: with a cheap costume. There's nothing wrong with saving some money.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: We went that route this year. You save a little money,
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: that's all. This is a this is a time where
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: saving money is a good thing. I mean it's always
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: a good thing. You should be saving money, but especially
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: saving money in twenty twenty five and rolling into the holidays,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: that's all. You know, government shutdowns and whatnot. You know,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: there's a lot going on, so especially if you're affected
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: by that. So here here's a deal, you know, some
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: kind of reflective something, if possible. You want some glow
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: sticks or good We often spend time trigger treating with
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: our friends Katie and Mark and their kids, and Mark
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: always has the glow sticks man. He's a Scout and
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: he and his son Andy, well their Scout family. That's
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: all you got to say. It's a Scout family. They're prepared.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: They have the glow sticks or you know, it's something
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: to be visible, flashlights, glow sticks. You don't want your
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: kid dressed like a ninja running up and down the
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: streets in the dark. That's you know, if they're trying
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: to pull a ninja costume off, this isn't really going
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: to be the time for it. And just be aware
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: of all the cross street crossings and not getting caught
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: up and you know, back and forth across the street
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: and that kind of stuff. Just be aware of all
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: of it. And by all means, parents check the candy
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: and make sure that if there's anything in there you
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: want to eat. You know, there's a tax involved, there's
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: a parent tax. That is, you know, kids have to
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: expect it. They're small, they don't know. If they're kind
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: of in that mid range, they need to expect it.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: If they're old enough, they're probably really kicking up a stink,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: but you know, they're big enough to fight back over it.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: I guess. So there's that. And then the other side
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: of this is the responsibility of the people driving careful
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: in the neighborhoods. Slow down, really really slow down. Nobody
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: wants an accident nobody wants to have to live with
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: that on either side. You got to be careful and
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: by all means, you know the drill. This is a
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: holiday that involves people having a beverage two at some point,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: maybe not during trigger treating, but you know, later in
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: the night, and you know the drill. It's too easy
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: to get an uber or a lyft or whatever, or
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: just get a friend to go with you that's not
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: going to drink whatever. It is. All the precautionary things,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: no fireworks after midnight, that kind of stuff. You know
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: the drill. We cover these things in holidays all the time,
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: and it's important that we remember to do our best
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: to look out for each other. That's all we're asking for.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: That's it. That's all we're really asking for is just
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: look out for each other. I don't think that's a
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: lot to ask. It's a Halloween edition of our Friday Show.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: So let's get into some good news first up, to
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: get things started, Let's go at this. I like this story.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Nineteen sixty two World War One soldiers Malcolm Alexander Neville
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: William Kirk Harley wrote two notes, stuff them in a bottle,
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: launched the bottle into the sea. One hundre hundred and
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: nine years later, that bottle resurfaced on an Australian beach,
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: connecting families across generations. Recently, Deborah Brown and her family
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: were cleaning up trash at Wharton Beach in Australia when
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Deborah's daughter stumbled upon the bottle buried in the sand
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: and inside were the letters written by Malcolm and William.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Deborah Hu's Facebook to track down their descendants, sparking emotional
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: reunions and shared memories. Deborah connected with Herbie Neville, Malcolm's
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: great nephew. Herbie said he knew of his great uncle
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Malcolm from stories he'd heard from his aunt, who is
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: now one hundred and one. She also connected with family
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: members of William. His granddaughter, Ann Turner explained that the
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: discovery has impacted the family in a big way. We're
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: all absolutely stunned. Their five grandchildren who were still alive
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: and said, and we're all in constant contact since it happened,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: and we just can't believe it. We do very much
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: feel like our grandfather has reached out to us from
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: the great How great of a story is that? A
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: World War One era note in a bottle discovered on
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: a beach in Australia. Good stuff. The University of North
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Carolina at Charlotte, the Brothers of Sigma Tau Gamma and
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: I guess I'm saying that right fraternity took on a
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: physical challenge to raise awareness and honor a brother who
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: lost that they lost to mental health struggles. The brothers
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: spent a day taking turns running a one mile loop
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: around campus from sunrise to sunset. In total, they covered
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: sixty miles. The goal was to get students talking to counselors,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: to each other, to anyone who listened. The event encouraged
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: students to talk openly and seek support. While the fraternity
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: now starts every chapter meeting with a mental health check in,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Derek Appa, one of the runners, says, the whole point
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: was to bring awareness to mental health. There's a strong
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: stigma around college students men especially, and having openness has
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: been great for us as a whole. How about that?
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: I like it. I like it. Good for these guys. Nice.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: It's a good way to honor a student that they
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: lost there at the school. All right, it is Friday,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: it is time for some weird news, and we have
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: ourselves an animal story to get things started today. And
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: it's an animal story in a Spirit Halloween. And this
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: seems to me like the best way possible to kick off.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I wanted to get you a good one. It's a
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Spirit Halloween and there's an animal involved, all right, that's
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: how we're doing this for Halloween. That's how we're rolling.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: So a Spirit Halloween store, Plano, Texas. I mean, you
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: know the drill. They got everything you want, costumes, accessories, decorations,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: a live monkey. We're in a diaper That's not in
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: every Spirit Halloween, but it was in this one. As
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: the scene got really out of hand, shoppers were browsing
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: the aisles when they suddenly spotted a diaper wearing monkey
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: swinging from the rafters and poles, and employees said the
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: monkey was in the store with its owner when it
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: got spooked by one of the animatronics, who hasn't experienced
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: that in a Spirit Helloween, and decided to take off.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: It remained on the loose inside the store for about
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: thirty minutes while staff and shoppers tried to catch it.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Police were eventually called in. With the help of the
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: monkey's owner, used a cookie to lure the frightened primate
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: from the rafters. Thankfully, no one was hurt. You know,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: I want to check the diaper. I don't know what
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: the animatronic was, but there could be some stuff going
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: on in the diaper, That's all I'm saying. I mean,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: those things scare me and I'm not a monkey. Well
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: I'm not a monkey, that's all. Let's do another animal story.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: This one's not. This is a SeaWorld. This is not
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: a Spirit Halloween. But it's in Florida, so that helps, right.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Florida woman suing SeaWorld Orlando for injury she says she
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: suffered when a duck flew into her face while she
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: was riding a roller coaster. The person in question, Hillary Martin,
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: she was visiting the park back in March and she
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: was riding the Macho Mako I think It's Macho roller
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: coaster when a duck suddenly flew into the coasters past
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: hit her in the face, knocking her unconscious. Martin argues
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: that the park failed to warn guests about the risk
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: of bird strikes when it should have known. The coaster's
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: location was near body of water, would create a zone
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: of danger for birds like ducks and gulls. Martin claims
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: the duck strike left her with permanent injuries, disfigurement, emotional trauma.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: She's seeking fifty thousand dollars in damages. Good luck. I
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: wish you're the best on that one. I mean, it's
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: not fun. I mean you're going there to have a
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: good time. You just want to have a good time,
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: that's all you want, and then a duck hits you
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: in the face there. I feel badly for the injury.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: I don't take that lightly. If I did, I would
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: make a joke about ducking. I'm not going to do that,
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: but it probably would have been helpful for her. Maybe
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: the sign should have said, hey, possibility of ducks. Maybe
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: you think about ducking. I don't know how about this story.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Thirty one year old Aaron Thompson was arrested a few
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: days ago for destroying about five hundred dollars worth of
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: pumpkins outside a Tampa area target. According to police, he
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: showed up at about one fifteen in the morning October
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: thirty first, and threw roughly eighty pumpkins to the ground.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Wasn't difficult for police to track Thompson down. Security called
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: him back to the store a few days later and
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: showed him surveillance video of the incident. Guards asked him
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: if he recognized the person in the footage, and he said, yeah,
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: that's me. He explained, unapologetically that someone had made him
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: angry and he took it out on the gourds. Police
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: were called and charged him with criminal mischief and I,
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: you know, I'm not sure if you know, maybe his
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: favorite band was smashing pumpkins. Maybe that would have been
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: a defense. I don't know, maybe not. It's not unusual
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: to toast a job well done unless you're in the
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: middle of a burglary and you stopped to do that.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: A California man returned to his home to find Sabina
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: Blanco sitting at his dining room table sipping a glass
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: of wine after breaking into the house. Took me a
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: second to realize whether or not Sabina Blanco is the
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: type of wine it was, or if it was the
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: name of the person who was drinking it, but it
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: could have been both. The man told the thirty one
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: year old to leave, and after he did, the victim
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: called police to report the incident. The resident also reported
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: that his house had been rummaged through. Blanco who was
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: booked at the Santa Clara County, Maine Jail for felony
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: residential burglary, misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia, and misdemeanor battery
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: on a police officer for allegedly spitting on the officer.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: I wonder where he might have learned it's okay to
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: spit on officers. Maybe we've been seeing that in the lately.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: A thirteen year old boy in New England is recovering
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: from major abdominal surgery after he swallowed nearly one hundred
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: high powered magnets. The boy reportedly swallowed the very powerful
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: magnets about a week earlier and started to experience stomach pain.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: I wonder why Doctors discovered the magnets had formed four
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: chains inside his intestines, causing serious damage. Surgeons had to
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: remove parts of intestines along with the magnets. He spent
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: eight days in the hospital and has been recovering. New
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: Zealand banned the sale of these magnets back in twenty thirteen,
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: warning that they pose a risk to children. Serious risted
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: children at that but the boy was able to purchase
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: them online thanks to Timu Timu Timu I don't know,
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: I don't use it. Years ago, Jill and I were
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: talking about the fact that when you make a purchase
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: for something that you're going to use every single day
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: and for many hours every single day, it's worth making
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: sure that you purchase something that's high quality and it's
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: something that's going to last for a really long time.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: And one of those things that we focused on was
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: bed sheets and bedding, because you spend at least a
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: third of every day in your bed eight hours a
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: day or so, maybe six to seven. It depends on
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: how much you sleep, but you might spend about eight
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: hours a day in the bed, and you want the
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: sheets to feel nice. You want them to last a
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: really long time, because that's the other thing. When you
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: get a nice set of sheets, you want them to
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: last a really long time. Well, let's talk about Cozy Earth.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: The folks at Cozy Earth have their bamboo sheet sets.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: They're cooling, they're comfortable, and they have an unparalleled softness
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: and they've got thousands of five star reviews for their products.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: And not only are we talking about bed sheets, we're
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: also talking about other bedding. We're talking about pajamas. Yes,
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: we're in that time of year where people want to
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: get their pajamas so they can have their Christmas pajama
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: photos maybe for their Christmas cards. And these are also
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: high quality, comfortable pajamas. So when you talk about getting
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: something that's going to last a long time and be
• 14:12

• 19:46
  Speaker 2: you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
• 19:49

• 19:55
  Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, and they do
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: those as well. Seven six three five eight forty five
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: hundred seven of six three five eight forty five hundred
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: O dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show right
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: after the break well. Dictionary dot com has declared six' Seven,
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: yes that's six' seven the twenty twenty five word of
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: the year because of the surge and searches and social
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: media usage beginning in the summer of. This year the
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: slang term born from a TikTok fueld meme and a
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: viral song loosely signaling so so or maybe this maybe
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: that offer and delivered with a palm's. Up gesture dictionary
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: dot com said the choice reflects how language, evolves online
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: noting that six seven may have a little, concrete meaning
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: yet carries cultural weight as a symbol of a generational in. Group,
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: HUMOR now i suspect there will be some six to
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: seven's trigger treating. This evening it's just a hunch you're
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: going to See some my boys needed a last minute
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: put Together for wednesday night church and they were encouraged to.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: Our costumes one was six one. Was seven, It worked it,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: was easy was it difficult? At all it was a very,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: low cost very budget friendly version. Of it it just
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: involves some tape AND a. T shirt that's really all.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: It TOOK but i would suspect that all of those
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: searches come from the adults who still don't, get it still.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: DON'T understand, I mean i, GET it i understand kind.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: Of it just the constant references to it with no,
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: real explanation and kids almost like it was their in
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: joke and they didn't want adults to know. ABOUT it
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: i think is what led to all of. Those searches
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: possibly online would make sense at the very. Least right
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: scientists From the University Of south australia spent four years studying,
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: remote work so folks working from home or working outside of,
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: the office and the findings. Were clear people working from
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: home tend to, be healthier happier and just as productive
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: as their in. Office counterparts one of the biggest perks.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: More sleep remote workers get about thirty extra minutes of sleep.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Each night they also report lower anxiety stronger engagement with
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: their jobs without the, daily commute which averages for some
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: four point five hours. Per. Week yikes people have more
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: time with, their family hobbies, and rests some studies even
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: estimating that it adds up to extra ten days a.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: Year plus working from home encourages healthier habits like, cooking
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: more eating. Healthier foods on the, productivity side workers are,
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: more efficient, meetings tighter managers are focusing more on results
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: than just. Showing up perhaps, most importantly having the freedom
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: to choose where and how to work seems to be
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: a key to long term motivation. And balance seems when
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: remote work is, done right it's a win win for employees.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: And organizations, All right so couple things. On this i'm
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: a strong advocate for working. FROM home i, do it but,
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: You know i'm my. Own boss that's part Of why
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: i'm able to, do it and it's certainly advantageous for
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: me when it comes to when kids are home, from
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: school there's an adult at, least present Even if. I'm
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: working i'm able to break AWAY when i need to
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: break away for SOMETHING that i need. To do but
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: again that's more of a self employed working from. Home
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: situation this notion and this idea that a manager needs
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: to stand over your shoulder and watch everything that you
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: do in order for you to get any work done feels,
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: Very dated it feels VERY. Pre COVID and, I remember
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: i've got a good friend of mine who works in
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: the corporate level and a training and, advising capacity and
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: he talks a lot often, back then at least about
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: those challenges of managers also learning how to manage from
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: afar and it not just being a situation where, you're,
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: saying okay employees have to learn how to get. Work
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: done it also means that managers had to learn how
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: to do that, as WELL and i think in some
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: situations they still haven't figured. It out and that's why
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: you have a lot of businesses telling people to get back,
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: to work get back in, the office which, you know
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: if it's a job that involves you know some sort
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: of you need to be face to face and you
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: need some sort of brainstorming sessions and things that certainly can't.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: Be difficult and some work does get done by, having
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: that but a lot of time gets wasted by having that.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: As well so, All right so, Of home for the
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: first time in a, long time people are moving back
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: to THEIR. HOMETOWN sa a recent survey found that over
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: half of respondents in twenty twenty five chose to move
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: closer to family and return to. Familiar places that's up
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: forty five percent the, year before and remote work is
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: one of the things that's made. It easier with folks, craving,
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: affordability community slower pace of life instead of, hustle culture
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: people are prioritizing relationships and. Well being an, added bonus
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: those who move back home often help boost their local
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: economies and it makes it a. Win win so there. You,
