Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
- 0:05Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:09Speaker 2: Thursday morning, thirtieth day of July. I'm Wes. Thanks for
- 0:15Speaker 2: joining me. Winding down the month of July. And I
- 0:24Speaker 2: believe someone was telling me that some of the school
- 0:27Speaker 2: area schools have already started or they're starting maybe Friday.
- 0:33Speaker 2: So here we go for some and I know that
- 0:39Speaker 2: around the country there or certainly later starts coming because
- 0:43Speaker 2: later finishes. So we're basically there as far as school
- 0:48Speaker 2: goes for many, but some still have a little time
- 0:51Speaker 2: to go. We had some of our orientation fund yesterday
- 0:55Speaker 2: at the boys' school, not schools school was there now
- 1:02Speaker 2: in the same school together. And as someone was pointing
- 1:05Speaker 2: out to me the other day, there is something about
- 1:09Speaker 2: just having an older sibling at your school. It's just
- 1:14Speaker 2: something about it that especially I guess for high school.
- 1:19Speaker 2: That is, my older brother went to a different high
- 1:24Speaker 2: school until his senior year and he joined me at
- 1:30Speaker 2: my high school. And I had been at my high
- 1:34Speaker 2: school was a small private school, and we were it
- 1:42Speaker 2: was a kindergarten or first grade. I don't know if
- 1:44Speaker 2: it started kindergarten, but I guess eventually it was kindergarten
- 1:46Speaker 2: through twelfth grade. And I started there in seventh grade,
- 1:49Speaker 2: so I had been there seventh, eighth, and I guess
- 1:54Speaker 2: ninth grade when he came along. So it was a
- 1:57Speaker 2: little bit different in that regard for me. But I
- 2:00Speaker 2: understand what this person was saying, because, yeah, it's a
- 2:02Speaker 2: little different when you got an older sibling there, there's
- 2:04Speaker 2: somebody looking out for you. There's somebody that is maybe
- 2:09Speaker 2: they're going to give you a hard time, but they're
- 2:11Speaker 2: not going to let anybody else give you a hard time.
- 2:14Speaker 2: And then my my younger brother by the time he
- 2:18Speaker 2: started at the school, and you know, it's the same
- 2:21Speaker 2: kind of thing, except it was me. You know, I
- 2:23Speaker 2: was the established kid who'd been there the longest because
- 2:26Speaker 2: I was there longer than my older brother. But it
- 2:28Speaker 2: was the same kind of thing. So I get it.
- 2:30Speaker 2: And and Jake and Luke will have that for a
- 2:33Speaker 2: year at school, and you know, they had that in
- 2:37Speaker 2: elementary school. But it's different. It's different when you're young.
- 2:40Speaker 2: You just show up and you do what you're supposed
- 2:42Speaker 2: to do, and there's no social components and there's none
- 2:45Speaker 2: of that stuff that you go through as a teenager.
- 2:47Speaker 2: So we're excited about that, and they officially get started
- 2:52Speaker 2: with the Muskogee County Schools for here in the Chattooche
- 2:57Speaker 2: Valley on Monday, so they'll be uh, I'll be doing
- 2:59Speaker 2: all that and I'll have a senior who can drive
- 3:02Speaker 2: them to school. And a weird feeling because I've been
- 3:07Speaker 2: driving kids to school now for a long time in
- 3:11Speaker 2: some capacity or another. And last year I had Luke
- 3:16Speaker 2: in middle school and he was taking a math class
- 3:19Speaker 2: at Jake's school, so they had that little bit of
- 3:22Speaker 2: that big brother thing last year just for one class,
- 3:25Speaker 2: and I was driving him and another kid. We had
- 3:27Speaker 2: another family that we were carpooling with, and I was
- 3:31Speaker 2: driving them to and from the middle school in some
- 3:35Speaker 2: cases back to the middle school, but taking them to
- 3:41Speaker 2: high school. So I was doing extra driving last year.
- 3:45Speaker 2: The summer has been nice, but I think the idea
- 3:48Speaker 2: of them getting in the car and heading off to
- 3:51Speaker 2: school together just feels Something about that feels great. Just
- 3:56Speaker 2: something about that just feels amazing knowing, but it's also
- 4:01Speaker 2: a little sad. It's a little sad. There's a line
- 4:03Speaker 2: from the TV show The Middle where the dad on
- 4:08Speaker 2: the show, Mike Heck, talks about the best time in
- 4:11Speaker 2: his life was when everybody was just in the car
- 4:14Speaker 2: and he was driving them around because he knew they
- 4:16Speaker 2: were all together and they were all there with him
- 4:18Speaker 2: and they were safe. And look, that sentimentality is there.
- 4:23Speaker 2: I get it. But you know, it's just something about
- 4:26Speaker 2: that knowing that you're not going to be playing Dad's
- 4:30Speaker 2: uber service for all of the school year. So I'll
- 4:35Speaker 2: do it some There's gonna be times where I'm gonna
- 4:37Speaker 2: have to do it. But anyway, So getting ready to
- 4:42Speaker 2: roll on into that school. It's just so hot, and
- 4:44Speaker 2: it just feels like they're starting back so early because
- 4:48Speaker 2: it is absolutely boiling outside and it has been I know,
- 4:53Speaker 2: we're getting a little bit of a break, I think
- 4:55Speaker 2: coming up. Humidity has been ridiculous. Yesterday mor morning, Jill
- 5:00Speaker 2: and I got up and took the dog for a walk,
- 5:03Speaker 2: and I mean it was just like walking in a
- 5:05Speaker 2: swimming pool. It was so humid yesterday right at the
- 5:09Speaker 2: start of the day. So see how it goes when
- 5:11Speaker 2: we head out this morning. All right, So I want
- 5:15Speaker 2: to it's hard not to just jump straight to the
- 5:19Speaker 2: meat of this conversation, but we'll set it up. Tee
- 5:23Speaker 2: it up just a little bit and talk about the
- 5:27Speaker 2: Senate hearing for Anthony Fauci, who it was not a
- 5:32Speaker 2: good day for team Fauci. There have been a series
- 5:37Speaker 2: of not very good days, if we're being honest, and
- 5:40Speaker 2: I just I want to take a minute and make
- 5:42Speaker 2: sure that if we pull politics out completely out of
- 5:50Speaker 2: the conversation when it comes to Fauci, we would be
- 5:54Speaker 2: in we'd be having a very different conversation. But politics
- 6:01Speaker 2: are going to always be ingrained in the conversation of
- 6:05Speaker 2: Tony Fauci and his times as the doctor, the celebrity
- 6:11Speaker 2: doctor that he was quite proud to be according to
- 6:15Speaker 2: his diary. So he was of course the doctor who
- 6:20Speaker 2: was overseeing COVID COVID response. There were a number of
- 6:26Speaker 2: times he was asked to come in. Well, he spoke
- 6:28Speaker 2: a lot, even from the White House. There were times
- 6:31Speaker 2: he was asked to come in and speak in Senate hearings, committees,
- 6:38Speaker 2: and he gave varying testimony on certain things. But he
- 6:43Speaker 2: was the guy who, ultimately, according to his own diary
- 6:49Speaker 2: that we've now seen, was responsible for a lot of
- 6:52Speaker 2: the decisions that got made with COVID. So there's a
- 6:57Speaker 2: lot of here's say, there's a lot of this hindsight
- 7:03Speaker 2: I say hearsay. There was hearsay, I guess for a
- 7:06Speaker 2: lot of this until we get to the diaries, which
- 7:09Speaker 2: seemed to suggest otherwise. But of course we're in that
- 7:14Speaker 2: position where we can look back on COVID through different
- 7:17Speaker 2: eyes and hindsight as the other h with all of
- 7:21Speaker 2: this so, and as we have discussed many times here
- 7:29Speaker 2: and on radio, I was covering the pandemic like everyone
- 7:34Speaker 2: coming into it clean. We were being given information. The
- 7:39Speaker 2: information we were given in many cases was coming from
- 7:42Speaker 2: Fauci and in other cases coming from We had the
- 7:48Speaker 2: Surgeon General. I interviewed him at the time. We were
- 7:52Speaker 2: getting information from the state, we were getting information from
- 7:55Speaker 2: the city. It was a broad spectrum of places. We
- 7:59Speaker 2: were getting lots of information, and our responsibility as broadcast
- 8:06Speaker 2: media was to transmit what was coming in from the government.
- 8:10Speaker 2: When you're covering something like a pandemic, you at the
- 8:14Speaker 2: time that you're in a crisis mode. You're not in
- 8:19Speaker 2: let's give commentary or thoughts or gut feelings or any
- 8:22Speaker 2: of that. You're you're being asked to pass along information
- 8:26Speaker 2: to keep everyone safe. Think about it like a mass
- 8:30Speaker 2: shooting situation. If there's a mass shooting that's taking place
- 8:33Speaker 2: in a building. You go in, you give the information,
- 8:36Speaker 2: here's what's happening, here's where the dangers are, here's what.
- 8:40Speaker 1: You need to do.
- 8:41Speaker 2: That's the way we covered it. You don't come into
- 8:44Speaker 2: it saying and they're telling us that there's a shooting,
- 8:47Speaker 2: but we don't believe there's an active shoot. You don't
- 8:50Speaker 2: do that. That's not the way you cover stories like that.
- 8:54Speaker 2: So I would like to point out, as I have,
- 8:57Speaker 2: and I've pointed out about the fact that the president
- 9:01Speaker 2: than Donald Trump, our senators, our representatives, our governors, our mayors,
- 9:09Speaker 2: our law enforcement, all of the people, especially people in
- 9:14Speaker 2: elected position, sheriffs, anybody working medical people, medical people was
- 9:20Speaker 2: a little different. But anybody that was an elected position.
- 9:24Speaker 2: I won't go into medical is a little different as well,
- 9:27Speaker 2: because that's a whole separate thing. But you had all
- 9:30Speaker 2: these people in elected positions. Will start with them that
- 9:35Speaker 2: they didn't sign up for this kind of thing. They
- 9:39Speaker 2: didn't sign up for a global pandemic. That's not what
- 9:42Speaker 2: they were expecting. I think with medical people, they have
- 9:46Speaker 2: to kind of assume, especially now, that this is a possibility.
- 9:50Speaker 2: But even that for them nobody really thought this was
- 9:53Speaker 2: going to be a thing. We'd hear announcements, we'd hear thinking, oh,
- 9:58Speaker 2: we may end up someday having a pandemic. We're going
- 10:00Speaker 2: to have the swine flu, and we're going to have
- 10:04Speaker 2: mad cow disease, and these things are going to happen,
- 10:06Speaker 2: and then they don't happen, so you kind of get
- 10:08Speaker 2: lazy and think this isn't where it's going to go.
- 10:10Speaker 2: But elected officials didn't jump in going I'm going to
- 10:13Speaker 2: have to go navigate and manage a global pandemic. World leaders,
- 10:19Speaker 2: I mean, people just that's not what you're expecting. So
- 10:24Speaker 2: it caught everyone by surprise. I would say that as
- 10:29Speaker 2: we're being told, and broadcast media was not really expecting it.
- 10:34Speaker 2: Of course, we just cover the things as they happen,
- 10:38Speaker 2: and in that case, we're passing along information. Here's what
- 10:41Speaker 2: they're telling us. They're telling us, don't go out and
- 10:43Speaker 2: get masks and wear them. It's not going to help you.
- 10:45Speaker 2: And then oh no, no, that's what Fauci says. And
- 10:47Speaker 2: then Fauci says, no, no wear masks. So we went
- 10:50Speaker 2: through all of that. There was a point for a
- 10:53Speaker 2: lot of us as we're navigating through that pandemic into
- 10:57Speaker 2: election season, where a lot of us started to smell
- 11:00Speaker 2: something seems off. It just didn't feel right. We started
- 11:05Speaker 2: to feel like they're doing things to create a situation
- 11:10Speaker 2: where they're trying to have an influence on the election.
- 11:13Speaker 2: That's just the way it started to feel for a
- 11:15Speaker 2: lot of Americans, okay, And I would argue that there's
- 11:19Speaker 2: some on the left that felt that too, because there
- 11:23Speaker 2: were people posting online strategists and things going this is
- 11:26Speaker 2: how we're going to get Trump, this is how we're
- 11:28Speaker 2: going to get him out office, and ultimately it was
- 11:32Speaker 2: it was a huge part of how they got him
- 11:34Speaker 2: out of office. They had an impact on the way
- 11:36Speaker 2: ballots were handled, mailing in ballots and collecting ballots and
- 11:39Speaker 2: how they would be collected, and suddenly, you know, ballots
- 11:42Speaker 2: were questionable signatures on the ballots, all these things that
- 11:46Speaker 2: came into play. I know someone who moved out of Georgia,
- 11:49Speaker 2: lives in another state and somehow cast a ballot without
- 11:53Speaker 2: their permission in the state of Georgia and did not
- 11:57Speaker 2: vote for Donald Trump as they did in the new
- 12:00Speaker 2: state where they live. So there was a point where
- 12:04Speaker 2: it started to become clear something was off, and you
- 12:07Speaker 2: had people like Rand Paul, who you know, senator from Kentucky,
- 12:10Speaker 2: who's saying, hey, we're going to dig into this and
- 12:12Speaker 2: find out what's going on. And then we had these
- 12:14Speaker 2: hearings and he questioned Fauci, and Fauci said a lot
- 12:17Speaker 2: of things that just didn't really seem like he was
- 12:21Speaker 2: being honest, and there were emails that showed that he
- 12:25Speaker 2: was not necessarily being honest, and there were questions about it.
- 12:29Speaker 2: But I would just like to point out that during
- 12:31Speaker 2: the Biden administration a lot of these things took place,
- 12:34Speaker 2: and then finally, right at the end of the Biden administration,
- 12:37Speaker 2: they preemptively pardoned Tony Fauci for things he might have done.
- 12:43Speaker 2: That's not normal. Okay, it happened sometimes, but it's certainly
- 12:47Speaker 2: not normal for someone who was responsible for handling the
- 12:52Speaker 2: way that this pandemic was going to be dealt with,
- 12:55Speaker 2: because there were questions about where the virus came from,
- 13:00Speaker 2: and there were questions about whether or not the National
- 13:03Speaker 2: Institute of Health was involved something that he was overseeing,
- 13:06Speaker 2: and you know, there was started to be evidence that
- 13:09Speaker 2: they were part of this whole manipulating this coronavirus and
- 13:13Speaker 2: that this could have been the origin for it, even
- 13:16Speaker 2: though he continued to and says, no, no, no, it
- 13:18Speaker 2: was a wet market. You know, somebody was eating bat
- 13:21Speaker 2: soup or whatever, and that's what it was. So now
- 13:26Speaker 2: here we are in on the other side of the
- 13:29Speaker 2: pardon and these diary entries that now Ran Paul has
- 13:35Speaker 2: released publicly, we're seeing a different side of Tony Fauci.
- 13:38Speaker 2: We're seeing the egomaniac I'm the most famous person in
- 13:43Speaker 2: the world kind of mindset, and I've got all these
- 13:46Speaker 2: celebrities that all praise me and like me and love
- 13:50Speaker 2: me and all these things. And how he was able
- 13:52Speaker 2: to manipulate and get things closed and you know, schools
- 13:57Speaker 2: and all these things that are part of these diary entries.
- 14:00Speaker 1: What.
- 14:01Speaker 2: So they brought him in to talk to him, and
- 14:03Speaker 2: they warned him, I told you this the other day.
- 14:05Speaker 2: They warned him ahead of time that we're gonna question you.
- 14:09Speaker 2: What when we question you, this won't be part of
- 14:11Speaker 2: your partner, so you can't get away with lying to
- 14:13Speaker 2: us now. So he chose yesterday over one hundred times
- 14:18Speaker 2: to plead the fifth He's continuing to basically call this
- 14:21Speaker 2: a witch hunt that ran Paul has been obsessed with
- 14:24Speaker 2: getting him, and he did not want to answer any questions,
- 14:28Speaker 2: no matter what the question, no matter how basic the
- 14:29Speaker 2: questions were, no matter how non incriminating they were. And
- 14:33Speaker 2: I'll just say this a slap in the face to
- 14:35Speaker 2: the American people. I think if this was a situation
- 14:38Speaker 2: where a Republican was manipulating something like a virus a
- 14:45Speaker 2: pandemic to have an impact on the outcome of an
- 14:48Speaker 2: election and get a Democrat out of office, this whole thing,
- 14:53Speaker 2: I'm sure would be completely flipped. Democrats would be losing
- 14:57Speaker 2: their minds, they'd be going. But I also would like
- 14:59Speaker 2: to think one of the differences in the two parties
- 15:02Speaker 2: is that you're going to have some Republicans in the
- 15:05Speaker 2: mix that are going to be going. A lot of
- 15:07Speaker 2: people died. We need to know why a lot of
- 15:11Speaker 2: people died. Human life means something, So why were people
- 15:15Speaker 2: allowed to die in these ways and not come clean
- 15:20Speaker 2: from the very beginning? Hey, this may be something that
- 15:22Speaker 2: got out of the lab and we may have been
- 15:23Speaker 2: responsible for it, and here's our best chance at stopping it.
- 15:27Speaker 2: Where was that? Why did we not have that? And
- 15:30Speaker 2: a lot of people want to know. We just want
- 15:32Speaker 2: answers to the questions, and he was not giving them yesterday.
- 15:36Speaker 2: And we had a couple of really amazing standout moments yesterday,
- 15:40Speaker 2: including Fauci's lawyer who tried to get up and speak
- 15:43Speaker 2: and was kicked out of the room, which you know,
- 15:49Speaker 2: caused some Democrats and caused you know, Fauci to be
- 15:55Speaker 2: very upset about it and his lawyer to be very
- 15:57Speaker 2: upset about it. Basically, Senator Bernie Moreno from Ohio just
- 16:05Speaker 2: went after him and had the quote of the day.
- 16:08Speaker 2: You know, who the f did you think you were
- 16:10Speaker 2: for for what you did? Which is great? I mean,
- 16:17Speaker 2: that's the uh, that's that was the quote of the day.
- 16:24Speaker 2: Rand Paul said, I really did want to hear from
- 16:26Speaker 2: doctor Fauci. I wanted to hear perhaps an apology, perhaps
- 16:29Speaker 2: some semblance of being sorry for what happened or the
- 16:31Speaker 2: judgment errors that were made. I think a lot of
- 16:34Speaker 2: American people should want to hear that. I think all
- 16:37Speaker 2: I think people around the world should want to hear that.
- 16:40Speaker 2: I think that is exactly what people deserve to know.
- 16:48Speaker 2: They lost, people, people died. I mean, so is this
- 16:53Speaker 2: about his ego? Is he a serial killer. What what
- 16:55Speaker 2: what is the what are we doing? Like I mean,
- 16:59Speaker 2: I would like to say that you know, this is
- 17:03Speaker 2: something maybe they got out of hand and they didn't
- 17:05Speaker 2: know how to come clean on it and didn't know
- 17:06Speaker 2: how to admit it. But someone saw the opportunity to
- 17:10Speaker 2: start shutting things down and see what impact this would
- 17:13Speaker 2: have economically on the country. And you know, I say,
- 17:16Speaker 2: people died, that's the most important thing. But families lost businesses,
- 17:22Speaker 2: people's careers changed. A lot of things were responsible. The
- 17:27Speaker 2: pandemic was responsible for, and lives up ended. People lost homes,
- 17:33Speaker 2: you know, people split up. There were a lot of
- 17:36Speaker 2: things that happened as a byproduct of all of this.
- 17:39Speaker 2: I've got friends passed away. One of my friends I
- 17:43Speaker 2: went to high school with he lost his dad. I say,
- 17:46Speaker 2: one of my friends. He had a big family. His
- 17:48Speaker 2: whole family were our friends of mine, people that I
- 17:52Speaker 2: care about, and I loved his dad, and he died.
- 17:58Speaker 2: People want answers, People deserve it answers. And you got
- 18:01Speaker 2: a guy who's just sitting there, smug, this look on
- 18:04Speaker 2: his face, smug at times at times, deer in the
- 18:06Speaker 2: headlights at times, I don't know, scared, and I'm sure,
- 18:10Speaker 2: the right move was to plead the fifth, but don't
- 18:13Speaker 2: the American people deserve more. Don't people of the world
- 18:17Speaker 2: deserve more? We keep talking about everybody says we should
- 18:20Speaker 2: be looking at things on a global scale. How about
- 18:21Speaker 2: this on a global scale. And Fauci says, he's had
- 18:25Speaker 2: death threats and all these things. And you know, one guy,
- 18:30Speaker 2: and I'm not advocating any sort of violence, but you know,
- 18:33Speaker 2: one guy gets upset because a different healthcare company wouldn't
- 18:36Speaker 2: provide service for him and his sore back. So he
- 18:39Speaker 2: goes and he kills the United Healthcare allegedly United Healthcare ceo.
- 18:44Speaker 2: And you know people praised him for it. Ah, God
- 18:47Speaker 2: get him. And then Fauci says, hey, people are threatening me,
- 18:53Speaker 2: maybe answer some questions. I'm not saying he should be threatened.
- 18:56Speaker 2: I'm not saying he should be killed by citizens. I'm
- 19:01Speaker 2: just saying that we deserve to know what happened. And
- 19:05Speaker 2: now Republicans are saying, hey, just because he played the fifth,
- 19:08Speaker 2: we could hold him in contempt for not answering our questions.
- 19:13Speaker 2: We're not past the idea of him being prosecuted. Apartment
- 19:16Speaker 2: of Justice would have to be the ones to do
- 19:18Speaker 2: that that's entirely possible, but I think we'd all like
- 19:22Speaker 2: the very least the answer to the question, who the
- 19:24Speaker 2: f did you think you were? Get ready for dragon
- 19:27Speaker 2: Con forty. It's the fortieth dragon Con and it happens

- 22:06Speaker 2: one of those things that when you're watching it in Columbus, Georgia,
- 22:09Speaker 2: you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia. I mean,
- 22:12Speaker 2: this is a major city attraction that happens right here

- 23:01Speaker 2: Today's show brought to you by Overhead Door Company of
- 23:03Speaker 2: Columbus for all of your garage door needs, commercial or residential.
- 23:09Speaker 2: Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's time for. It's
- 23:13Speaker 2: always good to get maintenance on anything that has parts
- 23:16Speaker 2: that move and have electronics. The folks at Overhead Door
- 23:20Speaker 2: Company of Columbus can take care of squaring that away
- 23:23Speaker 2: for you, and while they're there, you can always ask
- 23:26Speaker 2: them questions about some of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd
- 23:28Speaker 2: like to make to your garage door. Maybe your curb
- 23:32Speaker 2: appeal isn't quite what you want it to be and
- 23:34Speaker 2: you need some repair work done to the outside door.
- 23:37Speaker 2: Maybe you need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe
- 23:41Speaker 2: it's making a noise when your garage door opens and closes.
- 23:44Speaker 2: Maybe it's some sort of installation issue that you've got.
- 23:47Speaker 2: With colder or warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in
- 23:50Speaker 2: and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation where
- 23:54Speaker 2: you'd like to add a screen door to your garage
- 23:57Speaker 2: door system that you can put down and you can
- 23:59Speaker 2: use your garage as a sort of outdoor but indoor.
- 24:04Speaker 2: You know, if you like to work on your own
- 24:05Speaker 2: cars in there, or maybe you just want a little
- 24:08Speaker 2: man cavid. You'd like to be able to open the
- 24:10Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in. They
- 24:13Speaker 2: can do that for you as well, and again they
- 24:15Speaker 2: do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought
- 24:18Speaker 2: of having your car trapped inside your garage and your
- 24:21Speaker 2: garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help,
- 24:24Speaker 2: and they do those as well. Seven six three five

- 24:35Speaker 2: Morning Show right after the break. Well, if you live
- 24:46Speaker 2: near a theme park, you probably expect there to be crowds, traffic,
- 24:52Speaker 2: probably some noise. But one thing that the theme parks
- 24:57Speaker 2: try to do is they try to minimize the noise,
- 24:59Speaker 2: at least for the and things to Luca Lake is
- 25:02Speaker 2: a reasonably quiet neighborhood in LA and it's near where
- 25:07Speaker 2: Universal Studios Theme Park is in LA And basically they've
- 25:13Speaker 2: had a new ride there, it's the Fast and Furious
- 25:16Speaker 2: Hollywood Drift, and the park did their due diligence on
- 25:21Speaker 2: trying to keep the noise down from the actual coaster.
- 25:25Speaker 2: The coaster itself doesn't make a lot of noise, and
- 25:27Speaker 2: they did sound walls and gravel to try to minimize
- 25:32Speaker 2: noise coming from it. The issue, though, for the people
- 25:35Speaker 2: who live in this neighborhood is that the people riding
- 25:40Speaker 2: the coaster are screaming a lot. One resident called it
- 25:44Speaker 2: the screaming disturbing. Another resident said, you think something is happening,
- 25:49Speaker 2: like someone's getting murdered out there. So if there's anything
- 25:54Speaker 2: else that Universal Studios can do about it, I'm sure
- 25:57Speaker 2: they will try. I would think they've gone to great
- 26:00Speaker 2: links to keep the noise down, but it is unfortunate
- 26:06Speaker 2: for those people who live there. You know, at least
- 26:08Speaker 2: at least give them some like, you know, tickets to
- 26:11Speaker 2: the park, lifetime tickets in the park or something while
- 26:14Speaker 2: they live there. I don't know. New study has found
- 26:17Speaker 2: GLP one weight loss and diabetes drugs like ozempic, wegovi,
- 26:21Speaker 2: and Monjaro are linked to an increased risk of hair loss.
- 26:26Speaker 2: Researchers found people taking the drugs had up to sixty
- 26:28Speaker 2: eight percent higher risk of alopecia compared to those taking
- 26:32Speaker 2: other diabetes medications. The researchers believe the hair problem is
- 26:36Speaker 2: likely triggered by the sudden weight loss, rapid calorie restriction,
- 26:40Speaker 2: many people potentially not getting enough nutrients. While the hair
- 26:44Speaker 2: loss is not physically dangerous, experts are keeping an eye
- 26:47Speaker 2: on this particular side effect because it itself can take
- 26:51Speaker 2: a heavy toll on self esteem, so that could be
- 26:55Speaker 2: another effect. You know, you got the what of the face,
- 27:01Speaker 2: and then you got there's things with the body, arms,
- 27:05Speaker 2: Now we got hair. It's all kinds of stuff. The
- 27:08Speaker 2: hottest restaurant for the rich might be their own dining room.
- 27:15Speaker 2: New report finds that the demand for private chefs is
- 27:19Speaker 2: booming as wealthy Americans increasingly choose customized meals at home
- 27:23Speaker 2: over dining out. Clients aren't just looking for someone who
- 27:26Speaker 2: can cook, they want chefs with fine dining experience for
- 27:30Speaker 2: Michelin starred restaurants who can create personalized menus, work with
- 27:35Speaker 2: multiple cuisines, seasonal ingredients, tailor meals to specific health and
- 27:40Speaker 2: wellness goals, and privacy is a big factor with all
- 27:44Speaker 2: this for celebrities and high profile clients who'd rather skip
- 27:47Speaker 2: the public spotlight. The trend has become so lucrative that
- 27:51Speaker 2: private chefs in the US are reportedly earning an average
- 27:53Speaker 2: of about three hundred grand a year. So you know
- 27:58Speaker 2: this is now, This is like a new career option
- 28:04Speaker 2: at least while it lasts. But hey, good for them.
- 28:09Speaker 2: I mean, somebody wants to pay you to come and
- 28:12Speaker 2: just cook for them celebrities and can afford you. You know,
- 28:16Speaker 2: do it?
- 28:17Speaker 1: Do it?
- 28:18Speaker 2: Does true love have a price tag? A new survey
- 28:21Speaker 2: says that it does, and it's more than six figures.
- 28:24Speaker 2: The survey found twenty five percent of respondents believe their
- 28:27Speaker 2: finances have kept them from finding the one, and the
- 28:30Speaker 2: average respondent says it takes a salary of about one
- 28:32Speaker 2: hundred and ten thousand dollars to make true love possible.
- 28:36Speaker 2: Younger adults especially likely to connect money in romance gen z,
- 28:40Speaker 2: placing far more importance on income than older generations. Survey
- 28:45Speaker 2: also found that fifteen percent of Americans have ended a
- 28:47Speaker 2: relationship because of money issues, though poor financial habits mattered
- 28:52Speaker 2: more than the salary itself. So with costs on the rise,
- 28:57Speaker 2: and half say that they'd like to date more, just
- 29:00Speaker 2: a lot of them say they just can't afford it.
- 29:02Speaker 2: That's the problem. Move Over hard seltzers as a new
