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, twenty third day of January. I'm West thanks
- 0:14Speaker 2: for joining me. Starting to get closer to back to normal.
- 0:21Speaker 2: I know there are many parts of the Southeast that
- 0:25Speaker 2: are still dealing with this storm that came through, and
- 0:30Speaker 2: we still have some roads and things that you're going
- 0:34Speaker 2: to be dealing with issues with depending on where you are.
- 0:36Speaker 2: Some areas getting really back to normal today, some still.
- 0:40Speaker 2: I know we still have some schools and things in
- 0:43Speaker 2: the area that have decided that they're not open today
- 0:46Speaker 2: because the roads aren't going to be safe. That's a
- 0:49Speaker 2: possibility we get to I think we'll be back to
- 0:52Speaker 2: normal maybe most areas by tomorrow, but I'm not going
- 0:57Speaker 2: to make any calls. I can't even guess what some
- 1:00Speaker 2: of those school districts are going to do, or why
- 1:02Speaker 2: they do it, or any of the decisions. But some
- 1:04Speaker 2: pretty quick to give everybody plenty of time to make plans.
- 1:09Speaker 2: I mean, I think that's always the thing, right, is
- 1:11Speaker 2: giving people plenty of time to make hands. I'm not
- 1:13Speaker 2: speaking specifically to any school or school district or any
- 1:19Speaker 2: person that's in place to make those decisions. They're not
- 1:21Speaker 2: easy decisions to make. And I understand, and I can
- 1:25Speaker 2: tell you when you got kids at home and you're
- 1:28Speaker 2: kind of all just stuck in the house. Everybody's been working.
- 1:31Speaker 2: I always work from home. I have my studio and
- 1:35Speaker 2: my office set up at home, and that's what I do.
- 1:39Speaker 2: But you know, Jill's been working from home because Columba
- 1:43Speaker 2: States had their offices closed. My boys have been home
- 1:46Speaker 2: because their schools have been closed. So there's always that
- 1:50Speaker 2: challenge of juggling all those things. It's throwing my whole
- 1:53Speaker 2: routine out of whack. It's throwing everything out of whack
- 1:56Speaker 2: for me. But I can always just retire to my
- 1:59Speaker 2: chamber and I'm good to go right this morning, and
- 2:03Speaker 2: this is a normal routine for me. But as the
- 2:06Speaker 2: day goes on and I'm trying to get some work done,
- 2:08Speaker 2: but also trying to police everybody and make well, not
- 2:12Speaker 2: so much Jill, but make sure everybody stays on track.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Jill's very much on track. She's very much on track
- 2:17Speaker 2: with her work. That's not a concern. But the boys,
- 2:22Speaker 2: you just kind of have to pop in from time
- 2:24Speaker 2: to time and make sure that they're looking at the
- 2:26Speaker 2: appropriate screen, which they're pretty good about. But there's only
- 2:30Speaker 2: so much time of being like schooling from home and
- 2:35Speaker 2: all that. Anyway, I hope you've been able to enjoy
- 2:38Speaker 2: a couple of days of the snow. Depending on where
- 2:42Speaker 2: you are, some people dealing with some loneliness. It's good
- 2:45Speaker 2: to check in on people, make sure that they're okay.
- 2:49Speaker 2: I was reminded of that yesterday that if you know
- 2:52Speaker 2: someone who's kind of been holed up and maybe they're
- 2:56Speaker 2: in an area where they're not able to still get
- 2:58Speaker 2: back out on the roads, no, just check in on them,
- 3:01Speaker 2: make sure they're okay. Uh and and uh, you just
- 3:06Speaker 2: it's just it's nice to do that anyway, even when
- 3:08Speaker 2: there's not a storm going on, but when they're uh,
- 3:12Speaker 2: they've been kind of cocooned in by severe weather, it's
- 3:15Speaker 2: especially important to check in on them. But maybe over
- 3:18Speaker 2: the course of that of today into tomorrow at least
- 3:22Speaker 2: into the weekend and things will they'll be able to
- 3:23Speaker 2: get back to some sort of normal schedule, some some
- 3:27Speaker 2: some little tiny bit of normalcy. And I think we'll
- 3:29Speaker 2: get a little bit of that today. But I know
- 3:32Speaker 2: there were some businesses and things that we're trying to
- 3:35Speaker 2: be really optimistic yesterday, and you just it's it's hard
- 3:41Speaker 2: to make those calls. I understand that you want to
- 3:44Speaker 2: be able to be open and this is different and
- 3:46Speaker 2: it's just a little bit of a COVID throwback and
- 3:49Speaker 2: that you know, when everybody was asked to just stay
- 3:51Speaker 2: put at home. Uh And but at least then you
- 3:54Speaker 2: could get in the car, you could go to the park.
- 3:57Speaker 2: I mean, it hasn't stopped us from doing neighborhood walks
- 4:00Speaker 2: and things, but especially just to kind of see things
- 4:04Speaker 2: check out snowmen around the neighborhood. We decided to place
- 4:09Speaker 2: our snowman in our the back part of our property,
- 4:14Speaker 2: in our backyard, and partly because it's the best place
- 4:19Speaker 2: we could put him out of the sun where he'd
- 4:21Speaker 2: be getting very little sunlight. Try to preserve him for
- 4:24Speaker 2: as long as possible. So that was part of the
- 4:27Speaker 2: call on that. But you know, you see him around
- 4:29Speaker 2: folks have him made out in the in the front yard.
- 4:33Speaker 2: So we'll see how many of those are just hanging
- 4:35Speaker 2: in there. Hours lasted a good long time seven years ago,
- 4:40Speaker 2: and we had him in a similar spot then, so
- 4:41Speaker 2: we'll see how this version holds up. You know, I
- 4:46Speaker 2: don't think it's a magic hat. He's got a different
- 4:48Speaker 2: hat on this time, but he is. He's hanging in
- 4:52Speaker 2: there so far as of this morning. Okay, a couple
- 4:56Speaker 2: of things we'll talk about this morning, and I want
- 4:58Speaker 2: to I know I touched on some of this shit yesterday,
- 5:00Speaker 2: and I didn't really dive into the prayer, breakfast ceremony.
- 5:04Speaker 2: The bishop that decided to lecture the president and vice president. Look,
- 5:11Speaker 2: as I've heard a few people say, it was her prerogative,
- 5:14Speaker 2: she was able to say what was on her heart,
- 5:19Speaker 2: was on her mind. I wouldn't tell somebody that. I
- 5:24Speaker 2: would say, under normal circumstances, you don't hold back. You
- 5:27Speaker 2: have an opportunity, you do it. If she was seeking
- 5:31Speaker 2: fame and glory and all of that, which I've seen
- 5:34Speaker 2: a few people make that suggestion, then it certainly wasn't appropriate.
- 5:42Speaker 2: And I do think that there are some circumstances where
- 5:45Speaker 2: you do things like this. She's got the opportunity, she's
- 5:50Speaker 2: got the sort of large stage to say what she said,
- 5:53Speaker 2: and it was largely calls about being merciful and basically
- 5:58Speaker 2: implying that the president, you know, didn't support or have
- 6:02Speaker 2: mercy towards certain people. And in this generic term that
- 6:06Speaker 2: we're using about immigrants, I don't know that this administration
- 6:10Speaker 2: has said we hate immigrants, as has been implied and
- 6:15Speaker 2: suggested for years. Since twenty sixteen, what has been said
- 6:21Speaker 2: is it's this illegal immigrant thing. It's this criminals who've
- 6:27Speaker 2: come in. It's people who've come into the country because
- 6:30Speaker 2: they're you know, it's almost you have these feelings sometimes
- 6:36Speaker 2: of the people that go into the nice neighborhoods. Think
- 6:41Speaker 2: home alone, Think of the wet bandits. You know, they've
- 6:46Speaker 2: basically they've snuck into a neighborhood where they don't belong
- 6:49Speaker 2: and they're looking to rob all these nice houses. I mean,
- 6:52Speaker 2: that's basically it, right, So I think the idea is
- 6:56Speaker 2: that you want to get them out of the nice
- 6:57Speaker 2: neighborhood because they don't belong there. That's kind of the idea.
- 7:01Speaker 2: It's think about what's going on in what was happening
- 7:04Speaker 2: in the Carolinas in North Georgia after the hurricanes, But
- 7:11Speaker 2: you start thinking about what's happening in La when you
- 7:14Speaker 2: got people there that are showing up and there's kind
- 7:17Speaker 2: of rooting around in celebrity homes for whatever they can find,
- 7:22Speaker 2: and the police there are basically saying, we're looking for
- 7:24Speaker 2: people who don't belong, people here who have bad intentions.
- 7:28Speaker 2: We don't have a problem with the people who live here.
- 7:30Speaker 2: We don't have a problem with the people who are
- 7:31Speaker 2: supposed to be here. Maybe they don't live here, but
- 7:33Speaker 2: they're supposed to be here. It's the people who aren't
- 7:35Speaker 2: supposed to be there. In this constant suggestion and implication
- 7:40Speaker 2: that everybody on the right hates legal immigrants, I'm married
- 7:43Speaker 2: to a legal immigrant, a legal immigrant who filed the paperwork.
- 7:49Speaker 2: We went through that whole process together. Is the process
- 7:53Speaker 2: complicated yes? Is it more complicated than it should be? Probably?
- 7:59Speaker 2: Is it expensive? Yes? Is it more expensive than it
- 8:02Speaker 2: should be? Probably? Can there be ways to make this
- 8:07Speaker 2: whole process easier and better for everyone involved? Absolutely? I
- 8:12Speaker 2: don't know that there's anything that we have that can't
- 8:16Speaker 2: be improved upon. We constantly thrive and try to make
- 8:21Speaker 2: things a little bit better or easier or I don't know.
- 8:24Speaker 2: I think most of the time we do. Sometimes in
- 8:27Speaker 2: trying to make things better or easier or less complicated,
- 8:30Speaker 2: we make them much harder and more difficult. And it's
- 8:34Speaker 2: just a byproduct of bureaucracy. Sometimes you start to get
- 8:38Speaker 2: involved and you try to it gets weighed down. So, yes,
- 8:42Speaker 2: this suggestion that somehow immigrants aren't good people and throwing
- 8:49Speaker 2: that in the direction of the incoming president during the
- 8:52Speaker 2: prayer breakfast seems out of ligne. I mean, this is
- 8:55Speaker 2: someone who has very closely aligned himself with Elon Musk,
- 8:59Speaker 2: who's a very successful immigrant from South Africa, legal immigrant
- 9:05Speaker 2: from South Africa, and he's relying on him to do
- 9:08Speaker 2: a lot of things as we all have been, whether
- 9:12Speaker 2: you realize it or not, Elon Musk has been doing
- 9:14Speaker 2: a lot of things for a lot of us in
- 9:17Speaker 2: a lot of ways. And yes, a legal immigrant. And
- 9:22Speaker 2: then also just on the issue of gay and trans things.
- 9:24Speaker 2: I mean, the president has, you know, a gay man
- 9:27Speaker 2: who is one of his appointees treasury, right, So it's
- 9:32Speaker 2: not like this is we're turning this into you know,
- 9:38Speaker 2: only Democrats like people coming into the country legally, and
- 9:43Speaker 2: Republicans hate everybody for trying to come in. Only Democrats
- 9:47Speaker 2: like gay and trans people, and Republicans all hate them.
- 9:50Speaker 2: And you know the difference is during the Biden administration,
- 9:55Speaker 2: people were being appointed to positions of authority solely so
- 10:00Speaker 2: that they could brag about how many people that they
- 10:02Speaker 2: had that it checked certain boxes were in these positions,
- 10:05Speaker 2: and they regularly would tell us, hey, we've got more
- 10:07Speaker 2: gay and trans people in this administration. And then at
- 10:12Speaker 2: the end of the term, you know, there were people
- 10:15Speaker 2: pointing out nobody really ever got fired. Trump pointed that
- 10:17Speaker 2: out many times while he was running for president. No
- 10:21Speaker 2: one in this administration fires anybody, and people should get
- 10:25Speaker 2: fired sometimes if they're not doing their job. Well, sometimes
- 10:29Speaker 2: you create these legal hurdles if you are hiring people
- 10:33Speaker 2: that aren't qualified for the job and then you realize
- 10:38Speaker 2: they're not qualified for the job. Well, they weren't qualified
- 10:40Speaker 2: when you hired them. You hired them for this other reason,
- 10:43Speaker 2: and you don't want to create a situation where you're
- 10:45Speaker 2: letting them go because they never were really qualified. So
- 10:50Speaker 2: back to the prayer breakfast and I get it. This
- 10:54Speaker 2: is a country that has a First Amendment. There are
- 10:57Speaker 2: rights and freedoms in place. Was this appropriate it seems
- 11:04Speaker 2: there's certainly different opinions on it. Some on the left
- 11:07Speaker 2: celebrating this moment as Oh, good for her, she really
- 11:11Speaker 2: dressed him down. She really put him in his place
- 11:14Speaker 2: there said things that a lot of people would want
- 11:18Speaker 2: to say. I don't know that everybody even heard the message.
- 11:21Speaker 2: I think that's the other part of it, or even
- 11:23Speaker 2: really care what the message was. They've just been told
- 11:25Speaker 2: that she really dressed him down. But here's the question
- 11:30Speaker 2: that I have, and this is where I think a
- 11:33Speaker 2: lot of us are on this, and I mean the
- 11:36Speaker 2: immigration thing aside, just an opportunity at the beginning of
- 11:41Speaker 2: an administration to have this prayer breakfast and this prayer
- 11:46Speaker 2: service and be able to have some sort of a
- 11:51Speaker 2: unifying theme going forward. A new president, by the way
- 11:56Speaker 2: that's reached across the aisle, has people that are working
- 11:58Speaker 2: with him, including Elon who was former Liberal or former
- 12:03Speaker 2: Democrat or Democrat supporter. I think he'd only voted for
- 12:06Speaker 2: Democrats in the past, having former members of Congress working
- 12:13Speaker 2: with him, having you know, RFK Junior, one of his appointees,
- 12:17Speaker 2: Tulca Gabbard one of his appoints, somebody who's very clearly
- 12:21Speaker 2: trying all the new people that are sort of a
- 12:24Speaker 2: sub level on this DOGE committee that's going to be
- 12:28Speaker 2: working on government efficiency. So this opportunity to stand up
- 12:35Speaker 2: there and draw attention to herself. I think that's my
- 12:40Speaker 2: thoughts at least. But I mean, I don't want to
- 12:42Speaker 2: sound judgmental here, So go back to the inauguration just
- 12:49Speaker 2: for a minute. Humor me on this one. Jeff Bezos,
- 12:53Speaker 2: who was at the inauguration. He was there with Marcus
- 12:58Speaker 2: Zuckerberg and Lon Mosk and others, that very wealthy line
- 13:03Speaker 2: of you know, some of the richest people in the
- 13:06Speaker 2: world all standing there for the inauguration, And there was
- 13:11Speaker 2: that moment. I think most, I think a lot of
- 13:14Speaker 2: people I know saw it at least, but I was.
- 13:18Speaker 2: We were watching it, and I think my boys were
- 13:21Speaker 2: staring at screens. I think Jill had left the room.
- 13:24Speaker 2: There was a moment where Jeff Bezos's fiance went to
- 13:28Speaker 2: take her jacket off, and underneath she was wearing sort
- 13:31Speaker 2: of this blazer thing, I guess, and very visibly underneath
- 13:35Speaker 2: that was there wasn't a shirt, it was just her
- 13:38Speaker 2: bra and everything was really very much just kind of
- 13:43Speaker 2: out on display for just a few seconds as she was,
- 13:46Speaker 2: you know, taking the jacket off or adjusting whatever it was.
- 13:50Speaker 2: I wasn't paying I wasn't paying attention to very much
- 13:53Speaker 2: other than hey, this woman is just there in a
- 13:55Speaker 2: bra and that's Bezos's fiance. And I heard a number
- 14:00Speaker 2: of comments, so I know there was the shot of
- 14:02Speaker 2: Markus Zuckerberg looking at it, staring at it, a lot
- 14:05Speaker 2: of people having a laugh about that. I know that
- 14:11Speaker 2: as people are saying it was a fashion decision, and
- 14:13Speaker 2: I'm sure it was. I'm sure this is one of
- 14:15Speaker 2: those things that people will, you know, fashionably, people will
- 14:20Speaker 2: wear that out. I guess. I don't know, much like
- 14:24Speaker 2: Milania's hat, which, by the way, the hat looked great.
- 14:27Speaker 2: I know there's a lot of people making jokes about it,
- 14:29Speaker 2: having fun with it. My first thought was, you know,
- 14:31Speaker 2: we're in the world's Carmen san Diego. That was definitely
- 14:34Speaker 2: the first thing I thought. But I thought it looked nice.
- 14:37Speaker 2: It looked classy. I don't know why she wore it
- 14:39Speaker 2: all day. She finally took it off. Seemed a bit much.
- 14:44Speaker 2: I don't know if there was some rule in place
- 14:46Speaker 2: about when they designed it for we'll make this for you,
- 14:49Speaker 2: but you have to wear it all day. But anyway,
- 14:53Speaker 2: but that aside, nothing wrong with that hat. Did look
- 14:59Speaker 2: like she could take it off, wrote at somebody. But
- 15:01Speaker 2: that's beside the point. So there's this woman on stage
- 15:07Speaker 2: in front of God and everybody in a bra Allah Seinfeld, right,
- 15:15Speaker 2: Sue Ellen, Right. So she's you know, it's not a top,
- 15:23Speaker 2: she's wearing it on stage and people defending, oh, it's fashionable.
- 15:29Speaker 2: Yeah it was, and that probably would go under most circumstances.
- 15:34Speaker 2: Was it appropriate in this circumstance? Is the question was
- 15:37Speaker 2: it appropriate to show up for a presidential inauguration without
- 15:42Speaker 2: a shirt on?
- 15:44Speaker 1: I would say no.
- 15:46Speaker 2: It wasn't really appropriate for John Fetterman to show up
- 15:49Speaker 2: in shorts and a hoodie either, but he sometimes you
- 15:54Speaker 2: just have to expect certain things. You just have to
- 15:58Speaker 2: expect certain things. That's what John Fetterman was gonna do.
- 16:01Speaker 2: He's gonna show up in a hoodie in shorts. He
- 16:03Speaker 2: dresses like a teenage boy, and that's what he's gonna do.
- 16:06Speaker 2: Is it appropriate, No, it's not. It's not appropriate to
- 16:10Speaker 2: just wear a bra without a shirt. I don't care
- 16:12Speaker 2: how fashionable it is. So those are two circumstances where
- 16:16Speaker 2: you say, can you do it? Of course you can.
- 16:20Speaker 2: Is it appropriate? No? No it's not. So back to
- 16:24Speaker 2: this prayer service, this is not a situation where this
- 16:31Speaker 2: should have happened. Did she seize the moment? Yes? Should
- 16:37Speaker 2: she have? I mean, that's debatable. It just doesn't seem
- 16:42Speaker 2: like the right message at the right time, the right
- 16:44Speaker 2: opportunity to have everyone look at your particular denomination, your
- 16:49Speaker 2: particular faith and say, yeah, that's for me, but you're
- 16:54Speaker 2: gonna lecture the president. And honestly, it's a little it's
- 16:58Speaker 2: a little dishonest to him that he is against all
- 17:04Speaker 2: form of immigration. Doesn't that kind of fall under a
- 17:07Speaker 2: half truth? Isn't that misleading? And now the call was
- 17:12Speaker 2: for mercy ultimately, and I would hope that everyone would
- 17:16Speaker 2: want to see mercy from our leaders, but you would
- 17:22Speaker 2: also want to see some form of mercy from our ministers. Right.
- 17:28Speaker 2: Was she being merciful in that moment? Or was she
- 17:31Speaker 2: being a little misleading and politicizing something where an opportunity
- 17:35Speaker 2: was lost? Was she basically wearing abroad of the inauguration?
- 17:40Speaker 2: Was she wearing a hoodie to the inauguration? And was
- 17:44Speaker 2: she showing mercy? I guess that's the question is was
- 17:48Speaker 2: she doing the best to put the proper message forward
- 17:53Speaker 2: to her? I guess it was. But for the American people,
- 17:59Speaker 2: was it sincere? Was it as sincere as she thinks.
- 18:01Speaker 2: It was today's show brought to you by Columbus State
- 18:04Speaker 2: University's Coca Cola Space Science Center, inspiring and educating the
- 18:10Speaker 2: youth and future STEM leaders and STEM career holders that
- 18:15Speaker 2: really of all ages. I mean, they do it for
- 18:18Speaker 2: school age kids as school age kids visit the Coca
- 18:21Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center, but they also do it through
- 18:23Speaker 2: their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics,
- 18:29Speaker 2: and the careers in space and STEM fields are booming
- 18:33Speaker 2: right now, and you can learn more about maybe getting
- 18:37Speaker 2: your degree on their website CCSSC dot org. While you're there,
- 18:44Speaker 2: also check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got
- 18:47Speaker 2: this incredible collaboration that they do with the Schwobe School
- 18:52Speaker 2: of Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome.
- 18:55Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 19:00Speaker 2: One of those things that when you're watching it in Columbus, Georgia,
- 19:02Speaker 2: you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia. I mean,
- 19:06Speaker 2: this is a major city attraction that happens right here
- 19:11Speaker 2: in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca Cola Space
- 19:15Speaker 2: Science Center and the new season of Music under the Dome.

- 19:23Speaker 2: out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up. Where you
- 19:26Speaker 2: can get outside. Sometimes you do it at the Cocola
- 19:29Speaker 2: Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere outside the
- 19:33Speaker 2: city lights. You don't want any light interference, and you
- 19:35Speaker 2: can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night events also
- 19:39Speaker 2: on their website. It's CCSSC dot org. As Sean Crusan says,
- 19:43Speaker 2: Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I just remind you

- 19:56Speaker 2: Company of Columbus. For all of your garage door needs,
- 19:59Speaker 2: commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's

- 20:29Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
- 20:32Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
- 20:35Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
- 20:39Speaker 2: issue that you've got. With colder or warmer weather, sometimes
- 20:43Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
- 20:46Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
- 20:49Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
- 20:51Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
- 20:55Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
- 20:57Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
- 21:00Speaker 2: you just want a little man caved. You'd like to
- 21:02Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
- 21:04Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
- 21:07Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
- 21:10Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
- 21:12Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
- 21:15Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those

- 21:29Speaker 2: after the break. All right, so we're all familiar with anorexia.
- 21:41Speaker 2: I assume most everyone has heard of anorexia, or at
- 21:44Speaker 2: least is aware of it. Right, have you ever heard
- 21:48Speaker 2: of big eurexia? Well, this is a new trend that's
- 21:53Speaker 2: on the rise. It is a body image disorder. I
- 21:57Speaker 2: don't know if it's officially recognized as one, but it's
- 22:00Speaker 2: a trend. Bigger rexia is when a person gets a
- 22:03Speaker 2: distorted self image and believes that they're not muscular enough.
- 22:07Speaker 2: And they say it can happen to anyone, but it's
- 22:09Speaker 2: more common among teenage boys and young men. People who
- 22:12Speaker 2: suffer from big erexia often turn to excessive weightlifting, extreme diets,
- 22:18Speaker 2: and steroids. Experts blame the isolation caused by a pandemic lockdowns,
- 22:23Speaker 2: as well as an explosion of fitness videos online for
- 22:27Speaker 2: the increase in the cases, and I would think social
- 22:30Speaker 2: media would certainly play a big part in all of
- 22:33Speaker 2: that as well. All Right, what do you think is
- 22:36Speaker 2: the most popular grocery store in America? I don't know
- 22:44Speaker 2: that the one that sells the most groceries according to
- 22:49Speaker 2: a pole. What people think is most popular is one
- 22:53Speaker 2: that you would even think of as a grocery store.
- 22:55Speaker 2: I did not. According to a Yugov Pole, the most
- 22:59Speaker 2: popular grocery store in the country is seven to eleven,
- 23:04Speaker 2: followed by Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Aldi, Kroger Circle, k
- 23:11Speaker 2: Public's fresh Market, Safeway, and Sprouts Farmers Market. That's the
- 23:17Speaker 2: top ten. I don't I really if you see me
- 23:22Speaker 2: making a grocery type purchase in a convenience store, you
- 23:27Speaker 2: would have to have I don't know that I've ever
- 23:30Speaker 2: done it, I would be honest. I'm trying to think
- 23:32Speaker 2: of the last time I did snacks and things on
- 23:35Speaker 2: a road trip. Even that's not very common because I
- 23:38Speaker 2: can think, Hey, I'm going to be going on a
- 23:40Speaker 2: road trip in a couple of days, and I'm going
- 23:44Speaker 2: to be at the grocery store. I'm gonna go ahead
- 23:45Speaker 2: and buy whatever. My snacks are. Typically Lance Kneecott peanut butter,
- 23:50Speaker 2: by the way, it goes great, pairs great with a
- 23:53Speaker 2: doctor pepper zero on a road trip. But yeah, I
- 23:58Speaker 2: don't know. Seven eleven is not anywhere on my radar
- 24:01Speaker 2: as far as popular verse. I would have never never
- 24:06Speaker 2: even thought about that, all right, have you heard of
- 24:09Speaker 2: Gate lice or aisle lice. Gate lice, the people who
- 24:14Speaker 2: hang around the jetway before their boarding group is called
- 24:19Speaker 2: pretty annoying, it says, but just as annoying or gate lice,
- 24:23Speaker 2: the people who think they can finagle their way off
- 24:26Speaker 2: the plane as soon as it's landed and the group
- 24:31Speaker 2: jump out of their seats, quickly grab their carry on,
- 24:34Speaker 2: sometimes push their way through the front. Author and travel
- 24:37Speaker 2: expert Brandon Blewett says it seems to stem from a
- 24:41Speaker 2: misguided belief that being the first in line somehow grants
- 24:46Speaker 2: a magical pass to bypass everyone else deplaning in orderly fashion.
- 24:51Speaker 2: It doesn't a few points, this expert says, what we
- 24:57Speaker 2: all cooperate and win or turn. Everyone gets off the
- 24:59Speaker 2: plane faster. So that's the difference between gate lice and
- 25:02Speaker 2: iisle lice, the people who are just trying to file
- 25:06Speaker 2: their way out as fast as possible or get on
- 25:09Speaker 2: the plane as fast as possible. How comfortable are you
- 25:13Speaker 2: passing gas in front of your partner? A new survey
- 25:16Speaker 2: says thirty two percent of respondents say that they're perfectly
- 25:19Speaker 2: comfortable passing gas as well as making a two Z
- 25:23Speaker 2: in front of their significant other women a bit more
- 25:27Speaker 2: shy about the two z than men, nearly sixty percent
- 25:30Speaker 2: saying that they're not comfortable doing that in front of
- 25:34Speaker 2: their significant other. Only forty percent of men say they're
- 25:36Speaker 2: shy about the two zi's. It's like you're either do
- 25:44Speaker 2: it or you don't, right, I don't know that there's
- 25:46Speaker 2: ever like every now and then, sometimes I'm comfortable with
- 25:50Speaker 2: it and sometimes I'm not. Now, maybe that's not accurate
- 25:53Speaker 2: now that I think about it. There probably are times
- 25:55Speaker 2: where you just don't want to do it in front
- 25:58Speaker 2: of your significant other. But yeah, I mean the passing
- 26:03Speaker 2: gas things, and there are people who have very strict
- 26:07Speaker 2: rules about that. Some people like that's a lifestyle. Someone
- 26:11Speaker 2: was telling me recently when they met their in laws,
- 26:15Speaker 2: the in laws, that the mother in law told them,
- 26:17Speaker 2: we don't do that in this house around each other.
- 26:20Speaker 2: You excuse yourself to the bathroom or step outside if
- 26:24Speaker 2: you have to do that. We don't do that in
- 26:26Speaker 2: this house around each other. And she found out that
- 26:30Speaker 2: that wasn't necessarily as a hard and cold of a truth,
- 26:34Speaker 2: as that was just kind of laying like that first
- 26:37Speaker 2: day of school when the teachers laying down the law
- 26:39Speaker 2: and then things kind of slack off a little bit,
- 26:41Speaker 2: kind of one of those deals that'll do it for
