Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
0:05
Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
0:07
Speaker 2: Friday morning, seventh day of February. I'm Wes, thanks for
0:12
Speaker 2: joining me. It's following up on something from yesterday as
0:17
Speaker 2: this story continues to evolve, and I don't want to
0:22
Speaker 2: completely not properly discuss and I know it's Friday and
0:29
Speaker 2: we're going to get to the strange and bizarre news
0:31
Speaker 2: from around the world coming up, but I just wanted
0:34
Speaker 2: to mention this because I was very dismissive of the
0:40
Speaker 2: like the award shows, the Oscars and things. Intentionally, it
0:45
Speaker 2: has very little interest or appeal to me, and it's
0:47
Speaker 2: become its own separate beast. But just one comment that
0:55
Speaker 2: and I didn't get into this yesterday, but I felt
0:57
Speaker 2: in need at least to address it before get into
1:00
Speaker 2: the weekend, because there's more. This is going to be
1:02
Speaker 2: an ongoing thing. The latest on this and what we
1:07
Speaker 2: talked about yesterday concerning the Oscars. Carla Sophia Gascon is
1:14
Speaker 2: the first ever biological male who has transitioned into a
1:20
Speaker 2: woman who is up for the I Guess Best Actress
1:25
Speaker 2: Oscar for the movie Amelia Perez.
1:29
Speaker 3: Now, there were.
1:32
Speaker 2: Of course Initially, people pray, oh my gosh, the movie
1:34
Speaker 2: is so amazing, Oh my gosh, she's so amazing.
1:37
Speaker 3: In the role and all these things.
1:39
Speaker 2: So at some point someone dug into her past on
1:45
Speaker 2: Twitter and says that she talked about Muslim culture on Twitter.
1:50
Speaker 2: She talked about George Floyd, she talked about diversity, she
1:55
Speaker 2: talked about I guess lives matter a number of things. Now,
2:03
Speaker 2: when this came up, and this whole idea of you
2:08
Speaker 2: know this being she says, it's a hitch hop. She
2:11
Speaker 2: thinks it's the team of one of the other actresses
2:14
Speaker 2: may have been responsible for digging into this and revealing
2:17
Speaker 2: it or whatever. I guess my question as and she
2:23
Speaker 2: apologized on x and then on Instagram saying I got
2:27
Speaker 2: nothing to hide, and then basically said I'm not islamaphobe.
2:33
Speaker 2: I'm not racist anyway. I think the exact quote. I
2:38
Speaker 2: am neither racist nor anything that all these people have
2:41
Speaker 2: tried to make others believe that I am. And I
2:44
Speaker 2: guess in the director of the movie, Amelia Perez, basically
2:49
Speaker 2: says no, I haven't talked to her and in the
2:51
Speaker 2: comments are inexcusable.
2:52
Speaker 3: In an interview done in Deadline, Okay.
2:56
Speaker 2: So I guess we're this the Oscar coming up. We
3:01
Speaker 2: got the super Bowl coming up this weekend. So I
3:04
Speaker 2: guess one of the things that I feel like we
3:07
Speaker 2: should just as an observation, just as a you know,
3:14
Speaker 2: paying attention to the world, because I don't know that
3:16
Speaker 2: a lot of people are always paying attention to what's
3:19
Speaker 2: going on. And what I try to do on this
3:21
Speaker 2: show is just, you know, make observations, ask questions, and
3:25
Speaker 2: occasionally point out things. And maybe you've are maybe you
3:28
Speaker 2: got there yesterday without me commenting on it. But so
3:34
Speaker 2: if you remember, Harrison Butker, the kicker for the Kansas
3:39
Speaker 2: City Chiefs, drew a lot of flack for a speech
3:43
Speaker 2: given at a graduation last year, and a lot of
3:48
Speaker 2: people said, oh my gosh, how can this guy be applauded?
3:53
Speaker 2: How can he be a misogynistic Nothing about what he
3:57
Speaker 2: said was misogynistic. He basically praised women who make the
4:01
Speaker 2: decision to I'll say, on the surface, I don't know
4:06
Speaker 2: the man. I can't tell you what his heart is,
4:08
Speaker 2: but what he did was praise women who made the
4:13
Speaker 2: I guess, tough decision even to you know, but give
4:18
Speaker 2: up on like a professional career, for the sake of
4:20
Speaker 2: being a homemaker, for being a mother. And he said that,
4:25
Speaker 2: you know, for some of the graduates, that would be
4:27
Speaker 2: the path that they might take. People said that was
4:30
Speaker 2: sexist and all these things. So someone that you know,
4:35
Speaker 2: people were calling for the Chiefs to fire him, they
4:37
Speaker 2: were calling or cut him, they were calling for other
4:40
Speaker 2: players on the team to talk to him and address things.
4:44
Speaker 2: And he basically and speaking at a Christian college of
4:47
Speaker 2: all things, people to come in and tell him what
4:49
Speaker 2: he's supposed to have his opinions are supposed to be.
4:54
Speaker 2: If the Chiefs do win the Super Bowl this weekend,
4:58
Speaker 2: he'll be part of this three peat team and nothing
5:02
Speaker 2: about what he said that people disagree with will have
5:05
Speaker 2: any influence on him winning or not. His performance on
5:09
Speaker 2: the field will be the thing that determines whether or
5:12
Speaker 2: not he and others, but whether or not the Super
5:17
Speaker 2: Bowl is theirs right. As the kicker, he inevitably will
5:21
Speaker 2: have to make probably, I mean he's going to have
5:24
Speaker 2: to at least kick off once, but if they win,
5:27
Speaker 2: he's going to have to kick off more than once.
5:29
Speaker 2: That's the reality, right, I mean, they got a score
5:33
Speaker 2: for him to kick off a second time, but anyway.
5:36
Speaker 2: I suppose they could win on a safety and he
5:38
Speaker 2: only has to kick off once. But my point is
5:40
Speaker 2: if they win, he will be part of that. He
5:43
Speaker 2: will have been part of this season. He will be
5:45
Speaker 2: part of them winning. And you know there's teammates around him.
5:49
Speaker 2: But again, their views, whether we know what they are
5:52
Speaker 2: or not, whether we know that they're, you know, possibly
5:56
Speaker 2: going to propose to people who have been political on
5:59
Speaker 2: social media or not. Everybody would win the same award,
6:04
Speaker 2: the trophy, right, everybody's gonna And if Butker is somehow
6:07
Speaker 2: the MVP of the game, you would think he would
6:10
Speaker 2: win it regardless of his opinions. So I guess I'm
6:13
Speaker 2: just trying to figure this out when it comes to
6:15
Speaker 2: Hollywood in the way, and I know it's a little
6:17
Speaker 2: bit of a different decision, But if you're being honest
6:20
Speaker 2: and you're one of the voters and you're casting a
6:23
Speaker 2: vote for who the best performer was right, and if
6:28
Speaker 2: that's your pick, you shouldn't change your opinion because they
6:31
Speaker 2: wrote something racist or you know, islamophobic or whatever on
6:36
Speaker 2: Twitter years ago. That shouldn't be the way that the
6:38
Speaker 2: decision is made, not if it's a true award for
6:43
Speaker 2: your work, right, I mean, shouldn't that be. Ultimately, the
6:48
Speaker 2: thing that makes the decision is did you think this
6:50
Speaker 2: person was the best actor in this category? And if
6:53
Speaker 2: the answer is yes, then you got to vote for them.
6:56
Speaker 2: Right anyway, that's my thoughts. Let's jump up into some
7:01
Speaker 2: strange and bizarre new strange and bizarre news from around
7:06
Speaker 2: the world. We have a story here that has the
7:09
Speaker 2: word movie in it, and that's what kind of made
7:11
Speaker 2: me start trying to change it up. But that's not
7:14
Speaker 2: the story I want to start with. I want to
7:15
Speaker 2: start with this story because we've got a new term
7:23
Speaker 2: that I didn't know was a real term, but this
7:24
Speaker 2: is a term, and the term is cyber farting. A
7:28
Speaker 2: British woman who wanted to send a very clear and
7:31
Speaker 2: disgusting message to her boyfriend's X ended up being charged
7:35
Speaker 2: with cyber farting. Authorities say that twenty six year old
7:39
Speaker 2: Rhianna and Evans repeatedly sent the ex girlfriend videos that
7:43
Speaker 2: she took of herself passing gas. The prosecutor described that
7:48
Speaker 2: Evans placed the camera on her bottom and then passed
7:52
Speaker 2: the gas. The victim filed a complaint with authorities claiming
7:56
Speaker 2: that the videos have cost her distress and anxiety. Police
8:01
Speaker 2: arrested Evans charged her with harassment, her lawyer saying at
8:05
Speaker 2: the time that she sent the video, she had some
8:08
Speaker 2: drinks and she sent them understanding now that this has
8:11
Speaker 2: caused the victim some distress. She sent them without malicious intent.
8:16
Speaker 2: The court has ordered Evans to pay a fine to
8:19
Speaker 2: the victim and attend fifteen rehab sessions. She must also
8:23
Speaker 2: abstain from drinking alcohol for two months and have no
8:27
Speaker 2: contact with the victim for two years. Then cyber fared away.
8:32
Speaker 2: I guess I don't know. I don't know if you
8:33
Speaker 2: can go back to it. You just can't for two years.
8:38
Speaker 2: A man in India left with a broken heart and
8:40
Speaker 2: a missing kidney after he was scammed by what would
8:45
Speaker 2: probably win the award for the worst wife ever. The
8:49
Speaker 2: unidentified man sold his kidney on the black market after
8:54
Speaker 2: his wife spent months urging him to do so so
8:58
Speaker 2: that they could get money to help find their ten
9:01
Speaker 2: year old daughter, to help fund their ten year old
9:03
Speaker 2: daughter's education rather and eventually pay for her wedding. He
9:07
Speaker 2: finally relented found someone to purchase his organ. He had
9:12
Speaker 2: the painful procedure, got the money, but he didn't get
9:16
Speaker 2: it because the wife took the money and left with
9:20
Speaker 2: a secret lover on the side. The husband eventually learned
9:26
Speaker 2: that the wife had met a man a long time
9:28
Speaker 2: ago over social media and eventually became romantically involved with him.
9:33
Speaker 2: Her plan all along was to convince her husband to
9:35
Speaker 2: sell the kidney and then abandon the family. With the
9:38
Speaker 2: help of police, he was able to track down her
9:40
Speaker 2: location confronted her. She refused to speak with him and
9:43
Speaker 2: just told him that he was free to do whatever
9:45
Speaker 2: he wants and that she would soon.
9:47
Speaker 3: Be filing for divorce. I think he's probably.
9:53
Speaker 2: Best not being associated with her anymore.
9:56
Speaker 3: That's not a good, that's bad.
9:59
Speaker 2: That's really.
10:01
Speaker 3: All right.
10:02
Speaker 2: A Florida man was recently arrested while he was dressed
10:08
Speaker 2: as a Dalmatian. Police in Pasco County say thirty six
10:12
Speaker 2: year old Dylan Keith Devereux was spotted a speeding and
10:18
Speaker 2: swerving in his pickup truck. When they attempted to pull
10:20
Speaker 2: him over, he stepped on the gas and led them
10:23
Speaker 2: on a high speed chase. At one point, he even
10:26
Speaker 2: dropped off a passenger and continued to run from police.
10:29
Speaker 2: Devereaux ultimately crashed his truck into a tree and struggled
10:33
Speaker 2: with a trooper who tried to arrest him. Despite being
10:36
Speaker 2: tased by the trooper, Devereux was able to escape run
10:39
Speaker 2: off into the woods in the direction of his home.
10:43
Speaker 2: He was still wearing a Dalmatian onesie and only had
10:47
Speaker 2: one hand handcuffed. The trooper waited for backup and canine
10:52
Speaker 2: dog Nice to arrive, and they descended on the home,
10:56
Speaker 2: where they were met by his girlfriend, who told him
10:58
Speaker 2: that she wasn't letting anyone in the house because there
11:01
Speaker 2: were drugs inside and she didn't want to go to jail.
11:05
Speaker 2: Police returned the next day with an arrest warrant and
11:08
Speaker 2: took Devereux into custody, charged with fleeing, reckless driving, in
11:12
Speaker 2: possession of drugs. His girlfriend was also arrested. I wonder
11:16
Speaker 2: if it was a drug charge. You think maybe there's
11:19
Speaker 2: a chance there was a drug charge with her. I mean,
11:23
Speaker 2: maybe she still didn't get rid of the drugs before
11:27
Speaker 2: they came back. I don't know, maybe she thought, well,
11:29
Speaker 2: they left, surely they're not coming back.
11:32
Speaker 1: Hey.
11:33
Speaker 2: A banana landed a Florida woman in jail after she
11:36
Speaker 2: refused sorry after she used the weapon to attack a
11:39
Speaker 2: cashier at seven to eleven. Police say that twenty two
11:44
Speaker 2: year old call Tivia Turner, who is a dancer at
11:50
Speaker 2: a gentleman's club.
11:51
Speaker 3: That's the polite way to say it, isn't it?
11:54
Speaker 2: In clear Water walked into a convenience store got into
11:57
Speaker 2: a verbal argument with the employee. Police did not say
12:01
Speaker 2: what the argument was about, but the woman exchanged derogatory
12:04
Speaker 2: comments towards one another. Then they say Turner picked up
12:08
Speaker 2: a banana at the checkout counter and threw it at
12:10
Speaker 2: the worker's face, causing a minor abrasion. Turner was arrested
12:14
Speaker 2: in charge with battery. She's also being held without bond
12:17
Speaker 2: for violating her probation related to a prior grand theft conviction.
12:25
Speaker 2: So you got that hanging over you, and you get
12:27
Speaker 2: into an argument with someone, so you grab a banana
12:30
Speaker 2: and throw it at them.
12:32
Speaker 3: So I'm trying to think, like I.
12:35
Speaker 2: Mean, I wouldn't want a banana thrown at me, and
12:37
Speaker 2: especially not if it caused any sort of an abrasion
12:41
Speaker 2: on my face. I think she was completely entitled with that.
12:44
Speaker 2: But I just see that story and then the lady complaining.
12:47
Speaker 3: About the farting causing distress.
12:51
Speaker 2: Seems to me making like it's, you know, closer to
12:55
Speaker 2: Molehill than Mountain. That's all I'm saying. Right, But both
12:59
Speaker 2: of those they're not fun. Nobody wants them. But I'm
13:03
Speaker 2: just pointing out probably a little.
13:04
Speaker 3: Closer to Molehill.
13:06
Speaker 2: That's all millions of Americans getting ready for the super
13:09
Speaker 2: Bowl this weekend and getting their menus ready. So maybe
13:13
Speaker 2: that would explain why a man in New York stole
13:15
Speaker 2: them more than six hundred dollars worth of beer and
13:17
Speaker 2: shrimp from a supermarket on Long Island. Police say the
13:22
Speaker 2: unidentified man was able to walk out of the store
13:25
Speaker 2: with a shopping cart piled high with cases of beer
13:28
Speaker 2: and frozen shrimp without anyone stopping him. Security cameras captured
13:31
Speaker 2: the theft. Police got a good look at the suspect.
13:34
Speaker 2: They're asking the public to help identify him. They're even
13:37
Speaker 2: offering a cash reward for information. And he one attends
13:41
Speaker 2: the super Bowl party on Long Island, the host is
13:43
Speaker 2: serving shrimp and beer. Maybe call the police let him know,
13:49
Speaker 2: you know, maybe just call the police and say I
13:52
Speaker 2: might be at the shrimp and beer party, or you know,
13:56
Speaker 2: maybe he's got the girl that was arrested with the
13:58
Speaker 2: drugs to come over and it's bigger party than we thought. Hey,
14:02
Speaker 2: a Florida man accused of sult and battery and another
14:07
Speaker 2: weird weapons story because well. Twenty nine year old Aquavius Chandler,
14:14
Speaker 2: who's an ex con on probation for a prior felony,
14:17
Speaker 2: accused of attacking his sixty two year old stepfather with
14:21
Speaker 2: a boloney sandwich. The two had gotten into an argument
14:25
Speaker 2: after the stepfather complained that Chandler was playing video games
14:29
Speaker 2: too loudly and took away his PlayStation five. He's twenty nine,
14:32
Speaker 2: by the way, the stepfather sixty two. During the argument,
14:36
Speaker 2: Chandler allegedly threw the boloney sandwich and hit the victim
14:39
Speaker 2: in the chest. Police responded, and although there were no
14:43
Speaker 2: visible injuries on the stepfather, police arrested Chandler charged him
14:46
Speaker 2: with felony battery. Because of his prior three convictions, two
14:51
Speaker 2: of which also involved fights over the video games. Chandler's
14:58
Speaker 2: being held on bond in his order to stay away
15:00
Speaker 2: from his stepfather. You know, I think the prior convictions certainly.
15:06
Speaker 3: Would add to all this. I mean this to me
15:10
Speaker 3: is closer to mountain than Molehill.
15:13
Speaker 2: Nobody asked me, but you know, if he's got and
15:15
Speaker 2: it's all the same problem. Now, the blooney sandwich, I
15:18
Speaker 2: don't know which is more dangerous, blooney sandwich or a banana.
15:22
Speaker 2: I would think the banana is more dangerous, But to
15:25
Speaker 2: be honest, I've never been hit in the face with
15:26
Speaker 2: either one ever, not one that was thrown in either case.
15:32
Speaker 2: I mean, if I'm biting into a blooney sandwich, that's
15:34
Speaker 2: kind of hitting myself in the face with it, but
15:36
Speaker 2: it's still different, all right. Finally, a museum in Johnstown, Pennsylvania.
15:41
Speaker 2: I mean, it's not really hitting me in the face,
15:43
Speaker 2: but it kind of is when you bring it up
15:45
Speaker 2: to your face.
15:46
Speaker 3: It's just really soft.
15:48
Speaker 2: Museum in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, dedicated to the devastating flood in
15:52
Speaker 2: eighteen eighty nine that wiped out the town, was recently
15:56
Speaker 2: forced to close. Care to guess why the Johnstown Flood
16:01
Speaker 2: Museum was temporarily closed due to flooding. A valve broke
16:05
Speaker 2: on a pipe in the museum's third floor that sprung
16:08
Speaker 2: a leak that flooded the building, causing extensive damage but
16:11
Speaker 2: not destroying any of the exhibits. Thankfully, it would make
16:15
Speaker 2: them more authentic, wouldn't it? No timetable for when they
16:18
Speaker 2: might reopen the museum. The Johnstown flood in eighteen eighty
16:22
Speaker 2: nine occurred when a dam was breached by heavy rainfall
16:25
Speaker 2: and sent a swell of water into the valley and
16:27
Speaker 2: destroyed the town. More than two thousand people died. Interesting
16:32
Speaker 2: that it would flood and cause.
16:35
Speaker 3: It to close, isn't it?
16:36
Speaker 2: Today's show brought to you by Columbus State University's Coca

Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
19:03
Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
19:06
Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
19:09
Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
19:13
Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather, Sometimes
19:17
Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
19:20
Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
19:22
Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
19:25
Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
19:29
Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
19:31
Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
19:34
Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
19:36
Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
19:38
Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
19:41
Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
19:44
Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
19:46
Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
19:49
Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
19:52
Speaker 2: as well. Seven oh six thtory five eight forty five

Speaker 2: O dc CO Columbus dot Com more West Carol Morning
20:02
Speaker 2: Show right after the break. Do you need white noise
20:14
Speaker 2: to sleep?
20:15
Speaker 3: If you do, you're not alone.
20:17
Speaker 2: A recent survey found thirty eight percent of Americans need
20:20
Speaker 2: some background noise to fall asleep, especially true for gen Z,
20:24
Speaker 2: nearly fifty percent of them saying they cannot sleep without
20:27
Speaker 2: some sound. The main culprit is constant pinging, ringing, or
20:32
Speaker 2: buzzing of devices.
20:33
Speaker 3: That fill their day.
20:34
Speaker 2: White noise can be a powerful sleep aid, especially for
20:38
Speaker 2: gen Z, who are often immersed in a digital environment
20:42
Speaker 2: where silence is scarce. This according to Chelsea Perry and
20:45
Speaker 2: the owner of Sleep Solutions and a diplomat of the
20:49
Speaker 2: American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine. But millennials and gen
20:55
Speaker 2: X aren't far behind. According to a survey, forty one
20:57
Speaker 2: percent of millennials. Forty percent of Gen xers say they
20:59
Speaker 2: need sounds to snooze. Boomers, on the other hand, seem
21:03
Speaker 2: to prefer the classic quiet night, with only thirty two
21:07
Speaker 2: percent using white noise to get sleep. We are definitely
21:11
Speaker 2: a white noise family, all.
21:13
Speaker 3: Of us, all four of us.
21:16
Speaker 2: My kids like a fan blowing like right on them,
21:20
Speaker 2: close to them. Jill and I guess we usually have
21:24
Speaker 2: two fans. We had a ceiling fan going that doesn't
21:26
Speaker 2: make any noise, and then we have a pedestal fan
21:29
Speaker 2: that's there to make noise. And when we vacation, we
21:32
Speaker 2: have to remember to bring fans. Can't always get a
21:35
Speaker 2: fan at a hotel, can't always get a fan at
21:38
Speaker 2: a place, like if you rent a place, So I
21:41
Speaker 2: have to remember to take the fans. And we have
21:43
Speaker 2: multiple travel fans because everybody needs one. I mean, Jill
21:48
Speaker 2: and I can share one as long as we got
21:50
Speaker 2: the noise in the room. And I've had to use
21:52
Speaker 2: my phone before to make white noise, and I've slept
21:55
Speaker 2: with those wrap around headphones. It's like it's almost like
21:59
Speaker 2: ear but it's got the speakers built in just so
22:04
Speaker 2: that I can have white noise from my phone. Absolutely
22:07
Speaker 2: all right, Fomo. Fear of missing out is a thing, Jomo.
22:14
Speaker 2: The joy of missing out another thing. Very different things.
22:18
Speaker 2: You worry, Oh my gosh, I'm not getting to do this,
22:21
Speaker 2: Jomo is like, yes, I don't have to deal with that.
22:24
Speaker 2: The latest trend is phobo, and that is a fear
22:30
Speaker 2: of a better offer. Phobo is the anxiety you experience
22:34
Speaker 2: when faced with making a difficult decision, especially when you
22:37
Speaker 2: have several good options. How to combat phobo embrace the
22:42
Speaker 2: decision that you make in the moment and don't look back.
22:46
Speaker 2: That's what they say, all right, how about this? A
22:50
Speaker 2: young mom on TikTok is raising a bit of a
22:54
Speaker 2: stink on social media over her video explaining how her
22:57
Speaker 2: family saves money by using reusable toilet paper. It may
23:02
Speaker 2: not be quite as bad as it sounds. She's not
23:04
Speaker 2: actually using toilet paper and then using the same toilet
23:07
Speaker 2: paper again. Instead, she explains, everyone in her family uses
23:11
Speaker 2: a small towel instead of toilet paper. When they're done
23:15
Speaker 2: using it, they toss it in the dirty bin and
23:17
Speaker 2: it goes in the laundry. She did add one caveat
23:20
Speaker 2: though everyone uses the bidet first. She says it's more
23:24
Speaker 2: common than you would think, and she claims that and
23:28
Speaker 2: later in the video that she's seen folding towels in
23:31
Speaker 2: the video, and she explains that she recently went through
23:34
Speaker 2: a lot of them because of a dinner choice that
23:38
Speaker 2: they made of a certain popular fast food restaurant chain
23:42
Speaker 2: that serves Mexican food.
23:45
Speaker 3: You can probably guess.
23:47
Speaker 2: You can probably guess the one. I don't want to
23:50
Speaker 2: disparage them, I don't want to put them down, but
23:52
Speaker 2: I'm just pointing out the fact that you could probably.
23:54
Speaker 3: Guess who it was.
23:57
Speaker 2: With about one hundred and thirty million Americans planning to
24:00
Speaker 2: go to a Super Bowl party this weekend to watch
24:03
Speaker 2: the game. Some interesting stats about Super Bowl partying. According
24:08
Speaker 2: to wallet hub, super Bowl Sunday the second highest food
24:12
Speaker 2: consumption day in the US, behind only Thanksgiving. Average super
24:17
Speaker 2: Bowl feast about six thousand calories. Seventy four percent of
24:20
Speaker 2: Americans admit to eating more during the Super Bowl than
24:23
Speaker 2: for any other sporting event. Fifty four million cases of
24:27
Speaker 2: beer are sold for the Super Bowl. America's favorite Super
24:31
Speaker 2: Bowl food is still wings. About one point five billion
24:35
Speaker 2: of them will get eaten on Sunday.
24:38
Speaker 3: That's a lot of wings.
24:39
Speaker 2: Forty three percent of Americans would give up another work
24:44
Speaker 2: holiday if they would be able to get the Monday
24:49
Speaker 2: after the super Bowl as a holiday. Doesn't surprise me.
24:55
Speaker 2: I mean the question that charts to get a little
25:00
Speaker 2: it is when you go which holiday would you give
25:02
Speaker 2: up for that? Because when they start trying to pick
25:05
Speaker 2: the holiday, there would be a lot of eyebrows up
25:07
Speaker 2: to see, well, which holiday would you give up in
25:11
Speaker 2: order to take the Monday after the Super Bowl off.
25:14
Speaker 2: I've said, and I know there's been this push for
25:17
Speaker 2: a while, but if the game went back one week,
25:20
Speaker 2: then it's a holiday, it's President's Day weekend. But they
25:24
Speaker 2: would probably try to figure out a way to move
25:25
Speaker 2: the game to Monday, and that's what they would do.
25:28
Speaker 2: This is what they always seem to do as late
25:30
Speaker 2: as possible. No super Bowls, at least one, they don't
25:33
Speaker 2: go so late. And finally, of course, the game's in
25:38
Speaker 2: New Orleans this year and to see it in person
25:41
Speaker 2: cheaper this year than in recent memory. Ticket prices continue
25:44
Speaker 2: to drop, they say. Day after day, the prices have fallen.
25:47
Speaker 2: Now the cheapest ticket available for the game is twenty
25:50
Speaker 2: seven hundred and seventy six dollars. That's less than even
25:53
Speaker 2: a few weeks ago, and much less than years in
25:57
Speaker 2: the past. I think people are getting the fatigue, and
26:00
Speaker 2: I think both of these teams have some fatigue. I
26:02
Speaker 2: understand that the Eagles have only like this is just
26:05
Speaker 2: the second one in three years that they'll have been to.
26:09
Speaker 2: But I do think there's a little fatigue with the
26:11
Speaker 2: two teams. I know there is with the Chiefs, so
26:15
Speaker 2: and I would think this could be an indication of that.
26:17
Speaker 2: I don't know, or you know, recent attacks and things
26:21
Speaker 2: that happened in New Orleans. You know, we had that
26:24
Speaker 2: terror attack, so there's a possibility could be that. I
26:27
Speaker 2: don't know, but there you go. That'll do it for
26:31
Speaker 2: this Friday edition of the show. Thanks to our sponsors
26:34
Speaker 2: and patrons. Thank you for listening. I'd like to say,
26:39
Speaker 2: go one of the two teams.
26:41
Speaker 3: I hope they both lose.
26:42
Speaker 2: That's just where I'm at as a New York Giants
26:44
Speaker 2: fan who's sick of the Chiefs. So I'll just say,
26:47
Speaker 2: you know, I hope they both lose. Normally you could
26:50
Speaker 2: say cheer for the refs, but we know where the
26:52
Speaker 2: refs are. At least it seems that's where they are.
26:57
Speaker 2: I will catch you back here a Monday morning.
