Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start
- 0:05Speaker 1: your day and you're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:09Speaker 2: Thursday morning, fourteenth day of November. I'm West Thanks for
- 0:14Speaker 2: joining me. How are we almost halfway through November? How's
- 0:18Speaker 2: that happen? Happened quickly? I guess it was all the
- 0:21Speaker 2: lead up to the election maybe sort of made it
- 0:25Speaker 2: kind of drag on and on and on, and then
- 0:28Speaker 2: the next thing, you know, the election happened. And it's
- 0:32Speaker 2: not one of those cases where it gets dragged on
- 0:35Speaker 2: and on and on. For the results, we knew, you know,
- 0:39Speaker 2: by the next morning what was going on. And I
- 0:42Speaker 2: know that there's still some of those races that they're
- 0:44Speaker 2: still trying to figure out, and that seems to linger on,
- 0:47Speaker 2: and we got some states it's still for some reason
- 0:50Speaker 2: don't seem to want to be part of the union.
- 0:53Speaker 2: I don't know. I just feel like at some point
- 0:55Speaker 2: you got to say, hey, can you get your election
- 0:57Speaker 2: stuff figured out? What's taken so long? What is the
- 0:59Speaker 2: problem that's involved, and do you want to be part
- 1:03Speaker 2: of this process or not? I guess I don't know.
- 1:05Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not really for advocating kicking anybody out.
- 1:08Speaker 2: But at some point we have to, you know, figure
- 1:13Speaker 2: out how to get it together. Some states got it together.
- 1:15Speaker 2: Some states figured it out. Some states managed to like
- 1:20Speaker 2: Florida got it worked out a few years ago. Georgia
- 1:22Speaker 2: seems to have gotten it worked out. We had our
- 1:25Speaker 2: attempt at oh some bomb threats were called in. We're
- 1:29Speaker 2: gonna have to keep things open later, and very quickly
- 1:33Speaker 2: Republican leadership in the state of Georgia said, not so fast.
- 1:37Speaker 2: You know, if it was delayed by twenty minutes for
- 1:39Speaker 2: the bomb threat, you can stay open twenty extra minutes.
- 1:42Speaker 2: That's it. We're not doing this thing where we're staying
- 1:43Speaker 2: open till one am and waiting to see how many
- 1:46Speaker 2: votes you need and all that fun stuff. Right, allegedly,
- 1:51Speaker 2: that's what happened in the past. Allegedly. But we're here
- 1:56Speaker 2: on a Thursday together, and we echine our way towards
- 2:01Speaker 2: the weekend, inching our way towards this halfway point in
- 2:05Speaker 2: the month. And really, I mean, it feels like Thanksgivings
- 2:10Speaker 2: coming up really fast, doesn't it. I know it's one
- 2:12Speaker 2: of those late late in the month Thanksgivings, but it
- 2:14Speaker 2: still feels like it's all coming very quickly. If you're
- 2:17Speaker 2: anything like me, you've already got some sort of plans
- 2:20Speaker 2: in the works aside from what you normally do. Right,
- 2:26Speaker 2: speaking of things that we normally do, I got some
- 2:28Speaker 2: unfortunate news this morning about something. And you're aware of
- 2:33Speaker 2: the fact that I am reprising my role as Mother
- 2:36Speaker 2: Ginger in The Nutcracker. This is my sixty year doing
- 2:40Speaker 2: that and it is coming up that first weekend in December,
- 2:49Speaker 2: and tickets are still available. That's not any of the
- 2:51Speaker 2: bad news. We're not talking about any sort of bad
- 2:54Speaker 2: news as it pertains to that show. That's not the
- 2:59Speaker 2: bad news specifically. There is another bit of bad news
- 3:04Speaker 2: that I have to share relating to The Nutcracker, and
- 3:08Speaker 2: the bad news is that we had you know, last year,
- 3:11Speaker 2: we did an event. It was the Mother Ginger Tea Party,
- 3:17Speaker 2: and I hosted the Mother Ginger Tea Party and we
- 3:21Speaker 2: were We had a great time, a lot of people
- 3:25Speaker 2: that came. I was fully in character as Mother Ginger,
- 3:31Speaker 2: something that I had not done before. When it comes
- 3:35Speaker 2: to you know, this kind of show. Mother Ginger is
- 3:38Speaker 2: not a character. The ballet is not something that involves dialogue.
- 3:43Speaker 2: So we we put this together and we did the
- 3:47Speaker 2: tea party like the more the lunchtime before the Saturday
- 3:52Speaker 2: evening show. We had a great time this year. And
- 3:57Speaker 2: we don't know really, we just know that they were
- 4:00Speaker 2: tracking pre sale tickets for it and at some point
- 4:04Speaker 2: like a decision had to be made. We don't know
- 4:06Speaker 2: if the interest not to get to Inside Baseball, if
- 4:09Speaker 2: the interest because it was a little bit earlier in
- 4:11Speaker 2: the year for this tea party, which was scheduled for
- 4:14Speaker 2: the twenty third, sorry twenty fourth or twenty third, gonna
- 4:20Speaker 2: get my dates right of November. It was gonna be
- 4:23Speaker 2: the twenty third of November, Saturday, the twenty third. Anyway,
- 4:27Speaker 2: the event unfortunately had to be canceled for this year.
- 4:30Speaker 2: We're unable to make it happen. So if you have
- 4:33Speaker 2: purchased tickets and you have not been notified yet, they're
- 4:36Speaker 2: going to take care of getting you squared away with
- 4:38Speaker 2: a refund for that. So that's just the team. It
- 4:42Speaker 2: was a pajama party this year. I was looking forward
- 4:45Speaker 2: to doing it again. I understand the circumstances of it.
- 4:47Speaker 2: It just something didn't quite click this year, maybe the
- 4:50Speaker 2: timing of it, maybe people were expecting it still to
- 4:53Speaker 2: be a little bit later in the year, closer to
- 4:56Speaker 2: the Nutcracker. Now, the Nutcracker is still happening. So it's
- 4:59Speaker 2: December seventh and eight, the seven thirty show on Saturday
- 5:04Speaker 2: the seventh, and then Sunday the matinee at two thirty
- 5:08Speaker 2: on the eighth. Okay, and if your kids are in
- 5:10Speaker 2: a school field trip that's going to see the show,
- 5:13Speaker 2: they'll be coming to see it on that Friday. And
- 5:17Speaker 2: we're really looking forward what we're doing this year. I've
- 5:19Speaker 2: been working hard with the whole new group of Tabitha's.
- 5:22Speaker 2: That's what I call my polishchannels for the show, because
- 5:26Speaker 2: when you get in there the first time and you
- 5:28Speaker 2: get like twelve kids run up at you and they
- 5:30Speaker 2: sort yelling their name at you, the easiest thing to
- 5:33Speaker 2: do is just call them all Tabitha. That was the
- 5:35Speaker 2: origin behind that, and a few people have asked, you know,
- 5:37Speaker 2: why do you call them all Tabitha. I got a
- 5:40Speaker 2: whole new group, not one single return Tabitha this year,
- 5:45Speaker 2: a whole new group, and I've enjoyed getting to know
- 5:47Speaker 2: them and looking forward to what we're gonna do on
- 5:51Speaker 2: stage for you at this year's Nutcracker show. December seventh
- 5:54Speaker 2: and eighth, and I want to remind you again, get
- 5:56Speaker 2: your tickets through the River Center. Don't get them from
- 6:00Speaker 2: any of these side outlets that want to charge you
- 6:02Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty bucks. Somebody's like, ah it was
- 6:05Speaker 2: a few years ago. Oh I saw the tickets. They
- 6:06Speaker 2: are like one hundred bucks each, and I don't want
- 6:08Speaker 2: to do that. That's because somebody's got in their hands
- 6:12Speaker 2: on some tickets and they're reselling them, and you don't
- 6:15Speaker 2: want to mess around with that. That's not how you
- 6:17Speaker 2: want to get your tickets. You want to get them
- 6:19Speaker 2: through the River Center. They are going fast. So get
- 6:23Speaker 2: your tickets for whichever show you would like to attend
- 6:26Speaker 2: or both. Nobody's going to tell you you can't come
- 6:29Speaker 2: to both, and then make your plans for next year
- 6:32Speaker 2: to join us for whatever the mother ginger Tea event
- 6:35Speaker 2: will be sometime next year. So apologies for folks that
- 6:39Speaker 2: were hoping to come to that. I was hoping. I'm disappointed.
- 6:43Speaker 2: So there's that, all right. Let's dive into a couple
- 6:46Speaker 2: things concerning you know, we've had now a thuone has
- 6:51Speaker 2: been a pointed it sounds like a Star Wars character,
- 6:55Speaker 2: a little bit has been voted to become the majority
- 7:01Speaker 2: leader in the Senate. Once, you know, we get a
- 7:04Speaker 2: new Senate coming up in January, this is going to
- 7:09Speaker 2: be that bit of transition. The Trump administration has a
- 7:12Speaker 2: lot of their picks lined up ready to go. It
- 7:16Speaker 2: took eighty of the first one hundred days to get
- 7:19Speaker 2: picks in place because last time the Senate was not
- 7:24Speaker 2: ready to approve some of his selections. Now, with Republican control,
- 7:31Speaker 2: it certainly seems like things will be moving more quickly.
- 7:34Speaker 2: Yesterday's meeting in the White House seemed to be very civil.
- 7:38Speaker 2: What we saw of it, at least was civil. We
- 7:40Speaker 2: saw two presidents current and that weird, like it's only
- 7:46Speaker 2: this has only happened once and at that time, I
- 7:50Speaker 2: think that was one of the early stages of a
- 7:52Speaker 2: president coming in and doing this transfer of power meeting.
- 7:56Speaker 2: But where you've got a current president who in a
- 7:59Speaker 2: previous president, and the future president and it's just two
- 8:02Speaker 2: guys just sitting there talking. But they were civil. There
- 8:06Speaker 2: was a congratulations offered by President Biden to President Trump,
- 8:11Speaker 2: and Trump, you know, thanked him and mentioned, you know, hey,
- 8:15Speaker 2: politics can be ugly, can be nasty, but today is
- 8:19Speaker 2: not one of those days. That was a nice moment.
- 8:21Speaker 2: I think for both of them. It's the first time
- 8:23Speaker 2: I guess they've been in the same room together since
- 8:26Speaker 2: the debate. So so one of the things I wanted
- 8:30Speaker 2: to address today is something that I've been talking about
- 8:34Speaker 2: for a while now, and I guess there's now a
- 8:38Speaker 2: growing number of people. And I told you that this
- 8:42Speaker 2: would at least be discussed. I felt like, and this
- 8:47Speaker 2: was a lot that Biden was still the candidate when
- 8:49Speaker 2: I first addressed this, but and I brought it up then,
- 8:53Speaker 2: and now that there's a movement of people that want
- 8:57Speaker 2: to see this happen. You know, these are people all
- 9:00Speaker 2: on the left or basically maybe anarchists. I don't know,
- 9:04Speaker 2: I don't know what the I don't know what. If
- 9:07Speaker 2: you're not somebody on the left, you're probably just you know,
- 9:11Speaker 2: like the Joker from the Dark Knight, you probably just
- 9:14Speaker 2: want to see the world burn. But here here's what
- 9:18Speaker 2: I told you would at least be discussed. And I wondered,
- 9:23Speaker 2: is this something that might happen now. When I first
- 9:26Speaker 2: brought this up, this was before Biden was kind of
- 9:31Speaker 2: you know, wheeled off the cliff in the wheelchair as
- 9:34Speaker 2: the candidate. This was pre debate, This was pre a
- 9:38Speaker 2: lot of things. When I first brought this up, he
- 9:40Speaker 2: was still the candidate, he was still going to be
- 9:42Speaker 2: the Democrat nominee. And I said, then, I wonder I
- 9:49Speaker 2: could pull up the audio from the show. I said,
- 9:51Speaker 2: I wonder if he doesn't win and Trump does, will
- 9:58Speaker 2: Democrats being Democrats and being very much into this identity politics,
- 10:04Speaker 2: very much into this tribalism, very much into this we
- 10:07Speaker 2: like to check boxes.
- 10:10Speaker 1: Would he.
- 10:12Speaker 2: Even consider, somewhere between election day and inauguration day step
- 10:21Speaker 2: down as president and allow Harris to be the first
- 10:25Speaker 2: female president of the United States. I've said that multiple
- 10:29Speaker 2: times a long time ago, and kind of over the
- 10:32Speaker 2: last several months, just kind of brought it up from
- 10:34Speaker 2: time to time, And now that we're in that phase
- 10:39Speaker 2: of it that is being floated by leadership, at least
- 10:43Speaker 2: somewhere in the Democrat Party, there are people saying, you know,
- 10:46Speaker 2: this is the least he can do for her after
- 10:49Speaker 2: he didn't get out soon enough to give her a
- 10:51Speaker 2: real chance to win this election, Like that's going to
- 10:55Speaker 2: make him more tempted to do it, Like that's going
- 10:59Speaker 2: to be the thing that's going to push him to
- 11:02Speaker 2: do this. How sad it is that not only did
- 11:07Speaker 2: they push him out of the race and completely discredit
- 11:13Speaker 2: him really as the president, because that's effectively what they did.
- 11:19Speaker 2: They discredited him as the sitting president and said, hey,
- 11:22Speaker 2: you're the president. Everybody has now seen the fact that
- 11:29Speaker 2: you are not capable of doing this job another term.
- 11:32Speaker 2: So we're just going to ask it a step on down,
- 11:34Speaker 2: but it's up to you. And then they forced him
- 11:38Speaker 2: to do it. They badgered him, they pushed him. It
- 11:41Speaker 2: was very antagonistic at times. It got ugly. I mean,
- 11:45Speaker 2: this was a full on, you know, stab and Caesar
- 11:48Speaker 2: kind of thing where it was like, how ugly is
- 11:51Speaker 2: this going to get? And it got ugly. They were
- 11:56Speaker 2: people from you know, past presidents getting involved and chiming in.
- 12:00Speaker 2: There were various members of Congress in both houses jumping
- 12:06Speaker 2: in and sounding off about how he needed to step down.
- 12:10Speaker 2: And they pushed him out of the race. They pushed
- 12:12Speaker 2: him talk show hosts, they pushed him until he finally
- 12:16Speaker 2: acquiesced and let her effectively become the candidate. Now, there
- 12:21Speaker 2: were even questions about whether she would be the candidate,
- 12:24Speaker 2: whether that's who they wanted to be the candidate, but
- 12:26Speaker 2: at some point she just sort of pounced on it,
- 12:30Speaker 2: and rightfully so. I mean, if you're going to push
- 12:32Speaker 2: out the president and you're the vice president, was she
- 12:36Speaker 2: the best candidate? No? No, not at all. He was
- 12:40Speaker 2: probably still even a better candidate. We've discussed that he's
- 12:43Speaker 2: more likable than her, just in reputation. I know, I
- 12:48Speaker 2: had someone I was having a great conversation with a
- 12:50Speaker 2: friend and he was saying, well, you know, the polls
- 12:53Speaker 2: show that Harris was more likable than Trump, and I
- 12:56Speaker 2: agree with that. That's a great point, but that's not
- 12:58Speaker 2: what I mean when I say kable. I'm talking about electable.
- 13:05Speaker 2: You know, I think people didn't see her as this
- 13:07Speaker 2: is someone who should be the candidate, much less should
- 13:11Speaker 2: be the president. They didn't see her as someone and
- 13:15Speaker 2: we still have this, we still have this thing about
- 13:18Speaker 2: you know, well could you have a beer with the candidate?
- 13:21Speaker 2: And Harris even tried to have one of those moments
- 13:24Speaker 2: where she went on Stephen Colbert's show as Florida was
- 13:28Speaker 2: getting ravaged by a second hurricane that was coming through
- 13:33Speaker 2: and hitting an area that had already been devastated. While
- 13:37Speaker 2: folks in North Carolina were trying to recover and had
- 13:40Speaker 2: not properly been taken care of by FEMA, especially not
- 13:44Speaker 2: if you had a Trump sign in your house in
- 13:47Speaker 2: the front yard. They weren't going to come to you
- 13:49Speaker 2: in some cases. So she was on Colbert, you know,
- 13:53Speaker 2: cracking open a beer, and that was a very deliberate
- 13:57Speaker 2: moment of we're going to show you, Yeah, you could
- 13:59Speaker 2: have a beer with her. She's just just a good,
- 14:01Speaker 2: old average person. You could sit down and drink a
- 14:04Speaker 2: beer with her. So they pushed him aside for her,
- 14:09Speaker 2: and she didn't get any votes. There was no primary process,
- 14:13Speaker 2: No one voted for her to be the candidate. It
- 14:16Speaker 2: was just her. She was going to be the candidate,
- 14:19Speaker 2: and Biden had the reputation where I think if he
- 14:21Speaker 2: had stayed and he would have been the better candidate.
- 14:23Speaker 2: There were some others. I don't know that really Dems
- 14:25Speaker 2: currently have anybody that really has that sizzle. I don't
- 14:28Speaker 2: know that they have anybody who wouldn't have just been
- 14:30Speaker 2: walking into a buzzsaw with Trump in the selection, especially
- 14:33Speaker 2: when we saw the final results of it. But yes,
- 14:38Speaker 2: there's a push now once again for Biden to step
- 14:41Speaker 2: aside and make way for Kamala Harris, just so that
- 14:45Speaker 2: they can check those boxes. The exact thing that I
- 14:47Speaker 2: told you was going to come up months ago, and
- 14:51Speaker 2: it's come up, and I mean I'm talking like April.
- 14:54Speaker 2: I think that was when I first brought it up,
- 14:56Speaker 2: April or May. And I can't be the only person
- 14:59Speaker 2: who brought it up taking credit for that by any means.
- 15:02Speaker 2: Maybe I planted the seat. No, I'm just kidding. I'm
- 15:05Speaker 2: not one of those people who thinks in a football game,
- 15:07Speaker 2: when they're in a huddle, they're talking about me. I'm
- 15:09Speaker 2: not one of those people. I can't pretend any of that.
- 15:13Speaker 2: But I did say that here on this show. If
- 15:15Speaker 2: you listen regularly, you know it was brought up because
- 15:18Speaker 2: I just felt this is where it was heading. He
- 15:21Speaker 2: would win and there would be a push. Now there's
- 15:25Speaker 2: some sources from inside the White House. I don't even
- 15:28Speaker 2: know if they're official sources. They may just be kind
- 15:31Speaker 2: of hey, off the record. The President is not going
- 15:36Speaker 2: to step down and let Kamala Harris have this prestigious
- 15:40Speaker 2: honor of being president when she didn't earn it. It's
- 15:45Speaker 2: the best, that's the best, because he already wants stepped
- 15:49Speaker 2: down for her to enjoy a prestigious honor that she
- 15:53Speaker 2: didn't earn, and that was her being the nominee for president.
- 15:59Speaker 2: It's interesting, isn't it that by all accounts, all reports,
- 16:04Speaker 2: all insider info, is that specifically the first Lady, Jill Biden,
- 16:10Speaker 2: does not like Kamala Harris because of things that she
- 16:12Speaker 2: said about her husband in twenty twenty when there were
- 16:18Speaker 2: primaries going on then before Harris dropped out one of
- 16:22Speaker 2: the first ones out because Tulca Gabbard absolutely just you know, KO,
- 16:28Speaker 2: just early Ko for her, knocked her out of the race.
- 16:32Speaker 2: So she said things about Joe He's racist, he's sexist,
- 16:37Speaker 2: all these horrible things. Doesn't want black kids and white
- 16:41Speaker 2: kids going to school together. And Jill Biden, according to reports,
- 16:46Speaker 2: does not like her and did not want her to
- 16:48Speaker 2: be the nominee, and then she was Do you honestly
- 16:52Speaker 2: think they're going to let this happen a second time?
- 16:55Speaker 2: Do you think that the Biden's, who apparently really enjoy
- 17:00Speaker 2: being in the White House, At least according to reports,
- 17:02Speaker 2: Jill Biden really likes it and has been running some
- 17:05Speaker 2: of the cabinet meetings. We've reverted back to the old
- 17:09Speaker 2: we're the president line from Hillary Clinton. You know, hey,
- 17:14Speaker 2: is it possible? You know, I didn't know for sure
- 17:17Speaker 2: they were going to be able to push him out
- 17:19Speaker 2: of the race the way that they did. Can they
- 17:21Speaker 2: continue to badger him and push them And they're trying
- 17:24Speaker 2: to say, this is the honorable thing that he could
- 17:26Speaker 2: do for her, since he didn't give her a real chance,
- 17:29Speaker 2: just so they can check a box. Keep in mind,
- 17:33Speaker 2: go back to the George W. Bush administration when they
- 17:35Speaker 2: were trying to nominate so that they could appoint a
- 17:40Speaker 2: black female Supreme Court justice, and that was something that
- 17:47Speaker 2: Biden and others blocked from putting her in a position
- 17:51Speaker 2: where she would be a likely person to be appointed
- 17:55Speaker 2: or nominated by Republicans. You can't do that, that's our thing.
- 18:00Speaker 2: There was a Hispanic man in Florida that they wanted
- 18:02Speaker 2: to put him in a position where he could become
- 18:06Speaker 2: a Supreme Court justice, and they no, no, no, no, no,
- 18:11Speaker 2: that's our thing. They can't have this. They can't take
- 18:14Speaker 2: this away from us as we play all of this
- 18:18Speaker 2: identity politics. So maybe you're supposed to say Latin. I
- 18:24Speaker 2: remember somebody telling me you're supposed to say Latin, not Hispanic,
- 18:27Speaker 2: but all that changes. It's so fluid, isn't It's so
- 18:30Speaker 2: it's so fluid. I had a friend who told me,
- 18:31Speaker 2: we're supposed to say Latin. Okay, I'll say Latin or
- 18:37Speaker 2: you know, hispan of Hispanic origin. I don't remember specifically
- 18:42Speaker 2: where he was from. I think he was. I don't
- 18:44Speaker 2: know if he was Cuban. Anyway, I could look him up.
- 18:47Speaker 2: The point is they're not going to let it happen,
- 18:50Speaker 2: I don't think. But I didn't think they were gonna
- 18:54Speaker 2: let him get pushed out the door to be the
- 18:57Speaker 2: candidate in the first place. Today's show brought to you
- 18:59Speaker 2: by Kalumbus State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center, inspiring
- 19:04Speaker 2: and educating the youth and future STEM leaders and STEM
- 19:09Speaker 2: career holders that really of all ages. I mean, they
- 19:13Speaker 2: do it for school age kids, as school age kids
- 19:16Speaker 2: visit the Coca Cola Space Science Center, but they also
- 19:19Speaker 2: do it through their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics,
- 19:25Speaker 2: and the careers in space and STEM fields are booming
- 19:29Speaker 2: right now, and you can learn more about maybe getting
- 19:33Speaker 2: your degree on their website CCSSC dot org. While you're there,
- 19:40Speaker 2: also check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got
- 19:43Speaker 2: this incredible collaboration that they do with the Schwobe School
- 19:48Speaker 2: of Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome.
- 19:51Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 19:56Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 19:57Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 20:02Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
- 20:07Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
- 20:11Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center and the new season of Music
- 20:14Speaker 2: under the Dome. Check out upcoming dates for the shows,
- 20:18Speaker 2: and also check out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up.
- 20:22Speaker 2: Where you can get outside. Sometimes you do it at
- 20:25Speaker 2: the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere
- 20:29Speaker 2: outside the city lights. You don't want any light interference,
- 20:31Speaker 2: and you can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night
- 20:34Speaker 2: events also on their website, it's CCSSC dot org. As
- 20:38Speaker 2: Sean Cruisin says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I
- 20:43Speaker 2: just remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space
- 20:46Speaker 2: Science Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you
- 20:51Speaker 2: by Overhead Door Company of Columbus for all of your
- 20:54Speaker 2: garage door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular
- 21:00Speaker 2: maintenance that it's time for. It's always good to get
- 21:03Speaker 2: maintenance on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 21:07Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 21:11Speaker 2: care of square and that away for you, and while
- 21:13Speaker 2: they're there, you can always ask them questions about some
- 21:16Speaker 2: of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to
- 21:18Speaker 2: your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what
- 21:22Speaker 2: you want it to be and you need some repair
- 21:25Speaker 2: work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a
- 21:27Speaker 2: brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise
- 21:31Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
- 21:34Speaker 2: sort of installation issue that you've got. With colder or
- 21:37Speaker 2: warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
- 21:41Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
- 21:44Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
- 21:47Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
- 21:49Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know,
- 21:53Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
- 21:55Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man cavid. You'd
- 21:58Speaker 2: like to be able to open the door up and
- 22:00Speaker 2: invite all the insects in. They can do that for
- 22:03Speaker 2: you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
- 22:06Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
- 22:08Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
- 22:11Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, and they do
- 22:14Speaker 2: those as well. Seven sixty five eight forty five hundred

- 22:21Speaker 2: dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show. Right after
- 22:25Speaker 2: the break, actor Dave Cooyer has revealed that he he's
- 22:40Speaker 2: fighting cancer Uncle Joey from the show Full House. The
- 22:45Speaker 2: diagnosis he says stage three non Hodgkin lymphoma. Says he's
- 22:50Speaker 2: already been through one round of chemo. He is sixty five,
- 22:53Speaker 2: and he said the first notice symptoms a month ago.
- 22:56Speaker 2: That's when he knew something was wrong. And he said
- 22:59Speaker 2: the good news is that at stage three, so it
- 23:04Speaker 2: hasn't spread to any other organs, and that there's a
- 23:06Speaker 2: ninety percent survivability rate. And he says his sense of
- 23:09Speaker 2: humor is what's going to get him through it, he said.
- 23:12Speaker 2: My joke is that in four short weeks, I've gone
- 23:14Speaker 2: from a virgo to a cancer. He says. I've tried
- 23:18Speaker 2: to retain a sense of reality but also a sense
- 23:21Speaker 2: of humor about it tough. That is a fight that
- 23:26Speaker 2: many of us are familiar with, if not ourselves, but
- 23:30Speaker 2: from someone that we care about, and yeah, wish him
- 23:35Speaker 2: the best in that fight. There seems Americans are looking
- 23:39Speaker 2: for a more low key holiday season this year. A
- 23:41Speaker 2: new survey found that on average, respondents will go three
- 23:45Speaker 2: holiday gatherings this year, down from five last year. I
- 23:48Speaker 2: think some of that up trend had to do with COVID.
- 23:54Speaker 2: Only thirty six percent of those surveys said that they
- 23:56Speaker 2: wish they were attending more gatherings this year. According to respondents,
- 24:00Speaker 2: the most popular gatherings that people will attend this year
- 24:03Speaker 2: or Thanksgiving dinner, a Christmas dinner, and then Christmas parties.
- 24:06Speaker 2: Fewer people plan to attend a Friendsgiving dinner this year
- 24:10Speaker 2: compared to a year ago, and fewer people planned to
- 24:13Speaker 2: go to a New Year's Eve party this year than
- 24:16Speaker 2: last year. In addition, fewer respondents are planning to host
- 24:19Speaker 2: guest during the holidays this year. Than last year. I
- 24:23Speaker 2: do think COVID was part of that for people, that
- 24:25Speaker 2: bit of a spike that happened. When it comes to
- 24:28Speaker 2: Thanksgiving dinner, of course, turkey, that's center stage, that's the
- 24:33Speaker 2: star of the show. But people do really prefer the sides.
- 24:37Speaker 2: Campbell's has released their State of the Sides report for
- 24:40Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, and it revealed fifty five percent of
- 24:43Speaker 2: respondents said they would rather fill their plates with side
- 24:45Speaker 2: dishes than turkey. Yeah, I fit into this category. I
- 24:49Speaker 2: do like turkey, but I like turkey sandwiches more than
- 24:53Speaker 2: just a big slab of turkey on my plate. No
- 24:56Speaker 2: offense to anyone who will be preparing in ser serving
- 25:00Speaker 2: me turkey, I will eat it. About forty percent said
- 25:03Speaker 2: they'd be perfectly happy with a plate full of side
- 25:05Speaker 2: and no turkey, and of those cooking Thanksgiving dinner, sixty
- 25:08Speaker 2: percent said they enjoyed cooking the side dishes more than
- 25:10Speaker 2: preparing turkey. When it came to the sides, the top
- 25:13Speaker 2: five for the year would be what we in the
- 25:16Speaker 2: South called dressing. Some people called it stuffing, mashed potatoes,
- 25:20Speaker 2: sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, and then mac and cheese.
- 25:25Speaker 2: All good picks. Nothing wrong with that. The traditional green
- 25:29Speaker 2: bean casserole has mushrooms. I'm allergic, but other than that,
- 25:31Speaker 2: there's nothing wrong with that list. I don't do a
- 25:33Speaker 2: lot of the sweet potato souflee, but I do like
- 25:35Speaker 2: sweet potatoes in case you're preparing a meal for me.
- 25:39Speaker 2: A new survey of gen Z and Millennial finds that
- 25:43Speaker 2: nearly half of them prefer pets over children. About forty
- 25:46Speaker 2: three percent said pets are easier to care for and
- 25:49Speaker 2: less of a financial burden than kids. Eighteen percent said
- 25:53Speaker 2: they prefer kids over pets. Thirty nine percent said they
- 25:55Speaker 2: prefer both. The survey also found that pet owned are
- 26:00Speaker 2: so committed to their pets that they would make major
- 26:03Speaker 2: financial sacrifices to add years to their furry friends' life.
- 26:07Speaker 2: Sixty three percents that they would give up years of
- 26:09Speaker 2: their own life to extend their pets life span. That's
- 26:12Speaker 2: more than financial if they could add just one more
- 26:15Speaker 2: year to their pets life, sixty seven percents that they
- 26:17Speaker 2: would give up booze for a year. Sixty two percent
- 26:19Speaker 2: said they would get off social media, and fifty percent
- 26:22Speaker 2: said they would sacrifice three years of vacations. Forty eight
- 26:27Speaker 2: percent said that they would pay ten grand. There you
- 26:30Speaker 2: go the financial stuff, all right. Warning for the thrifters listening,
- 26:36Speaker 2: those vintage clothes are covered in germs. Our skin is
- 26:41Speaker 2: coated with millions of bacteria as well as fungi and viruses,
- 26:46Speaker 2: so naturally the clothes we wear are also covered with
- 26:49Speaker 2: those as well, So when you're buying that second and shirt,
- 26:53Speaker 2: you're also getting the original wearers bugs. Bottom line, wash
- 26:56Speaker 2: the clothes, really wear really well before you wear them,
- 27:00Speaker 2: and make sure you wash them in hot water because
- 27:02Speaker 2: cold water will not kill pathogens. So good luck when
- 27:08Speaker 2: you're out there doing your thrift shopping. So you know,
- 27:15Speaker 2: in the future, robots won't just be flipping Hamburgers, they'll
- 27:19Speaker 2: be performing surgeries. Researchers at Johns Hopkins University and Stanford
- 27:24Speaker 2: have trained a robot to perform complex surgical procedures just
- 27:28Speaker 2: by watching videos of real surgeries. Using a technique called
- 27:31Speaker 2: imitation learning. The robot was able to handle tasks like
- 27:34Speaker 2: needle manipulation, tissue lifting, suturing, and that done with precise
- 27:42Speaker 2: like I guess precision of a seasoned surgeon. That's precise precision,
- 27:50Speaker 2: a little bit of a redundancy isn't it. It does
- 27:53Speaker 2: sound scary, but researchers believe the breakthrough could have lead
- 27:57Speaker 2: a path at least towards fully robotic surgeries in the future,
- 28:00Speaker 2: reducing medical errors and improving precision. I notice it doesn't
- 28:04Speaker 2: say anything about keeping the cost down. That'll do it
- 28:07Speaker 2: for this Thursday edition of the show. Thanks to our
- 28:09Speaker 2: sponsors and patrons. Thank you for listening. I'll catch you
- 28:12Speaker 2: back here tomorrow morning.
