Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
- 0:05Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show. Friday morning, twenty second day of May.
- 0:11Speaker 1: I'm Wes. Thanks for joining me. School officially out for
- 0:16Speaker 1: Muskogee County here in Columbus. I know many of the
- 0:19Speaker 1: other schools are either already out or are you getting
- 0:23Speaker 1: ready to let today be their last day. Many of
- 0:27Speaker 1: you listening around the country, though, may have another week,
- 0:30Speaker 1: may have a couple more weeks to go before things
- 0:33Speaker 1: run on. I guess the further north you get, the
- 0:35Speaker 1: later the start is. Therefore the later the end is
- 0:38Speaker 1: so hanging there if you're coming up on this final
- 0:41Speaker 1: stretch of things, We're enjoying a little time not hauling
- 0:47Speaker 1: kids around.
- 0:48Speaker 2: I am just as a lot of transport I've got
- 0:51Speaker 2: I had won this past school year who was in
- 0:54Speaker 2: middle school. I was taking him to high school for
- 0:56Speaker 2: one class. He and another kid. We had a family
- 1:00Speaker 2: we're corpooling with that is now done. It feels good
- 1:04Speaker 2: that we survived it. It was hectic. It was a
- 1:06Speaker 2: great experience for him to be doing tenth grade math
- 1:09Speaker 2: while he's in eighth grade. We're proud of him for that.
- 1:12Speaker 2: We're proud of all of the kids that he was
- 1:14Speaker 2: doing that class with that were eighth graders. We even
- 1:17Speaker 2: had one that wasn't at his school but at a
- 1:19Speaker 2: different school, and none of those kids all really excelled
- 1:22Speaker 2: in that class. And his teacher for that class graduated
- 1:27Speaker 2: from Columbus State University with her master's degree last week,
- 1:32Speaker 2: and I got to call her name at graduation as
- 1:34Speaker 2: well as one of Jake's teachers that Luke will eventually
- 1:39Speaker 2: probably have as well, possibly have if those cards play
- 1:43Speaker 2: out for him that way. But just kind of a
- 1:46Speaker 2: cool thing that I was able to call her name
- 1:48Speaker 2: for her masters at graduation. So school wrapping up, we're now,
- 1:52Speaker 2: you know, knocking on the door. We got a little
- 1:54Speaker 2: bit to go before we get into June. And while
- 1:58Speaker 2: June is sort of that calendar star to summer, June, July, August,
- 2:02Speaker 2: you know, you get to the astronomical start of the
- 2:07Speaker 2: summer season and that comes later in you know, June,
- 2:12Speaker 2: but this weekend, I mean today at five o'clock is
- 2:17Speaker 2: kind of the unofficial kickoff of summer anyway, because of
- 2:21Speaker 2: this Memorial Day holiday. So a couple of things, and
- 2:24Speaker 2: I always say this, I just said it recently, but
- 2:27Speaker 2: I just feel it's important to remind you Memorial Day
- 2:31Speaker 2: not Veterans Day. It's a holiday to remember those who've
- 2:36Speaker 2: made the ultimate sacrifice. That's what it is. It's a
- 2:39Speaker 2: somber it's a time to just appreciate those who made
- 2:44Speaker 2: that sacrifice. But it's also time to remember the people
- 2:48Speaker 2: that maybe were there when that sacrifice was made, maybe
- 2:52Speaker 2: the people that were saved by that sacrifice, the family
- 2:55Speaker 2: that was left behind, those people that have suffered through this.
- 3:01Speaker 2: And you probably especially if you live anywhere near a
- 3:05Speaker 2: military base. We have Fort Benning here in my hometown.
- 3:09Speaker 2: There are a lot of retired military that live here
- 3:11Speaker 2: and make this a city of Columbus their home. I
- 3:16Speaker 2: don't know why it became a thing a few years ago,
- 3:20Speaker 2: but this idea of fireworks for Memorial Day has caught on.
- 3:25Speaker 2: It's sad to me that it caught on. It's a
- 3:27Speaker 2: very tacky time to shoot fireworks. I know people want
- 3:30Speaker 2: to go Yay America, but this isn't the AA America holiday.
- 3:34Speaker 2: It's just not. This is one where you probably have
- 3:39Speaker 2: people maybe potentially near you, that may have some PTSD,
- 3:43Speaker 2: especially if they're truly remembering someone over this weekend. The
- 3:49Speaker 2: last thing they need is to hear explosions over their
- 3:51Speaker 2: house and in their driveway and along their street. Just
- 3:55Speaker 2: cut them some slack. They've earned it. Give them some
- 3:57Speaker 2: time to remember the people they served with and not
- 4:02Speaker 2: put them through that. It's just tacky, and that's not
- 4:06Speaker 2: what this holiday is. This is not a fireworks holiday.
- 4:09Speaker 2: People just get excited when they see red, white and blue.
- 4:12Speaker 2: I know there's probably going to be a lot of
- 4:14Speaker 2: fireworks this weekend because we're coming up on the July
- 4:20Speaker 2: to fifty Independence Day to fifty, that holiday is coming up.
- 4:25Speaker 2: But just save the fireworks, use extra fireworks for Independence Day.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Let's do that rather than put our retired soldiers or
- 4:36Speaker 2: you know, in some cases there's still active duty soldiers
- 4:39Speaker 2: putting them through that. They don't need to hear that,
- 4:41Speaker 2: they don't need to experience that. So let's cut them
- 4:44Speaker 2: just a little slack. Don't you think it's Friday going
- 4:48Speaker 2: into this weekend? So we do some positive news, right,
- 4:53Speaker 2: we do some good news before we jump into these
- 4:56Speaker 2: strange and bizarre news from around the world. We'll start
- 4:59Speaker 2: with this story. Ten years ago, Jlissa Gomez and her
- 5:03Speaker 2: husband Anthony befriended their eighty seven year old neighbor, her
- 5:06Speaker 2: name del Mar Harder. Since then they developed a deep
- 5:10Speaker 2: family like bond. Because del Mar never married, sorry, I
- 5:14Speaker 2: said her, but thinking of Julyssa. Because he never married
- 5:19Speaker 2: is relatives of out of state. This young couple stepped
- 5:22Speaker 2: up and made sure that he was never alone for holidays, birthdays,
- 5:25Speaker 2: life's tough moments. The friendship inspired Julyus and Anthony to
- 5:28Speaker 2: write a children's book called The Friendship next Door with
- 5:31Speaker 2: del Mar. The goal was to help raise his money
- 5:34Speaker 2: to support del Mar's living expenses and health needs. Well,
- 5:37Speaker 2: the big plan worked. Enough money was raised from book
- 5:40Speaker 2: sales to supplement del Mar's Social Security checks even wipe
- 5:44Speaker 2: out some medical debt. Jelyssa hopes that their friendship with
- 5:47Speaker 2: del Mark can inspire others. She says, if there's one
- 5:51Speaker 2: thing we want people to take away, it's that kindness
- 5:53Speaker 2: doesn't have to make a big impact. Simply showing up
- 5:58Speaker 2: for someone, especially during the times that they feel most alone,
- 6:02Speaker 2: can truly change a life. Well done. What a great idea.
- 6:06Speaker 2: And the people who decided to step up and purchase
- 6:08Speaker 2: the book and be part of it, and maybe they
- 6:10Speaker 2: will be able to kind of pay all of this forward.
- 6:13Speaker 2: So great stuff there. Casper the Owl has become a
- 6:17Speaker 2: bit of a legend at a wildlife rehab center in
- 6:19Speaker 2: British Columbia. She has helped raise more than five hundred
- 6:23Speaker 2: orphaned baby owls, teaching them how to fly, how to hunt,
- 6:27Speaker 2: how to stay away from humans before they're release back
- 6:29Speaker 2: into the wild. Casper came to the Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation
- 6:34Speaker 2: Society in nineteen ninety nine after getting caught in a
- 6:37Speaker 2: leg hold trap. Because of her injuries, Casper can't survive
- 6:41Speaker 2: on her own, and this has been a bit of
- 6:43Speaker 2: a blessing to all the baby owls who need extra help,
- 6:46Speaker 2: as she turned out to be the perfect foster mom.
- 6:49Speaker 2: These days, she's caring for four more baby owls, and
- 6:53Speaker 2: according to their handlers, Casper's maternal instincts are strong. She's
- 6:57Speaker 2: always on alert for predators even the kind humans around her,
- 7:01Speaker 2: which is important thing for the babies to learn. Rob Hope,
- 7:07Speaker 2: manager of the society, says, she's got a little edge
- 7:09Speaker 2: to her. Let's say that they look up to her,
- 7:12Speaker 2: they follow her, they mimic her. That's what we want
- 7:15Speaker 2: so that when those babies are in the wild, we
- 7:17Speaker 2: know that they've got a good chance for survival. Nicely done, Casper,
- 7:23Speaker 2: Kudos to you. It's a great story. I like it
- 7:28Speaker 2: all right. Let's get to some strange and bizarre news
- 7:30Speaker 2: from around the world. We begin not in Florida, but
- 7:35Speaker 2: in North Texas, where a man faces charges for driving
- 7:38Speaker 2: his Tesla cyber truck straight into Grapevine Lake, apparently to
- 7:43Speaker 2: test the vehicle's wade mode. Police say the driver intentionally
- 7:48Speaker 2: entered the water near a boat ramp, but the test
- 7:51Speaker 2: didn't go far. The electric truck quickly took on water,
- 7:55Speaker 2: became disabled, and had to be abandoned. Wade mode is
- 7:59Speaker 2: designed for shitlo water about thirty inches deep, not full
- 8:03Speaker 2: lake crossings. The driver and his passengers were able to
- 8:07Speaker 2: get out safely. Rescued crews later pulled the partially submerged
- 8:11Speaker 2: truck from the lake. He was arrested and faces multiple charges,
- 8:15Speaker 2: including operating a vehicle in a restricted area and violations
- 8:18Speaker 2: related to boating safety laws. I mean, if he thought
- 8:23Speaker 2: it was in wade mode, and he thought wade mode
- 8:27Speaker 2: was a thing, then technically he thought it was a boat, right.
- 8:33Speaker 2: I don't know. I didn't know there was a wade
- 8:36Speaker 2: moade on those things, but it wouldn't surprise me. They
- 8:38Speaker 2: do have a very I don't know, kind of boat
- 8:40Speaker 2: like shape. They looked more like a boat, I guess
- 8:42Speaker 2: than a truck, especially even a car. But I mean
- 8:48Speaker 2: it's his car. Can he just take it in the
- 8:50Speaker 2: water if he wants. A fourteen year old boy in
- 8:54Speaker 2: Norway is back in the news again for his love
- 8:57Speaker 2: of buses, but not for riding them, for steellling them.
- 9:01Speaker 2: The boy hopped on a bus in Oslo over the
- 9:04Speaker 2: weekend and got behind the wheel and took it for
- 9:07Speaker 2: a two hundred mile joy ride. Other motorists flagged the
- 9:11Speaker 2: situation after noticing how young the driver appeared, police took
- 9:15Speaker 2: him into custody. As it turns out, authorities are very
- 9:19Speaker 2: familiar with the boy because he's done this two other times.
- 9:23Speaker 2: In one case, he reportedly drove for hours without being detected.
- 9:27Speaker 2: At another, he crossed into Sweden on a one hundred
- 9:29Speaker 2: and thirty mile trip, all without damaging the vehicle. Get
- 9:33Speaker 2: this kit a license. I mean, fourteen's a little young,
- 9:37Speaker 2: but apparently there's you know, get him get him his
- 9:42Speaker 2: bus driving license. Despite repeated incidents, his age has meant
- 9:48Speaker 2: no formal criminal charges so far, though officials say child
- 9:52Speaker 2: welfare services are now involved. That's different, isn't it. But
- 9:55Speaker 2: he's still trying to figure out how the team keeps
- 9:57Speaker 2: gaining access to the buses and how he's able to
- 10:01Speaker 2: operate them so skillfully. He should be teaching people how
- 10:04Speaker 2: to drive. I've seen some bus drivers that couldn't put
- 10:08Speaker 2: a one hundred and thirty mile trip across country lines
- 10:12Speaker 2: without running it into something. So good for this kid,
- 10:17Speaker 2: and I hear he was making stops the whole time.
- 10:19Speaker 2: Now he wasn't, was it stupid and picking up passengers.
- 10:22Speaker 2: Firefighters in Utah rushed to the scene of an emergency
- 10:25Speaker 2: on the highway not to put out a fire, but
- 10:28Speaker 2: to rescue millions of bees. A semi truck carrying about
- 10:32Speaker 2: twenty five million bees broke down on Parley's Canyon during
- 10:36Speaker 2: an unusually hot weather stretch. No airflow was coming from
- 10:41Speaker 2: a moving truck, so the bees were at risk of
- 10:43Speaker 2: overheating and dying. While mechanics worked to fix the truck,
- 10:47Speaker 2: firefighters stepped in gently sprang the trailer with water to
- 10:51Speaker 2: keep the insects cool and calm. The truck was hauling
- 10:54Speaker 2: roughly four hundred and eighty hives. Each packed with tens
- 10:57Speaker 2: of thousands of bees, and despite working just feet away
- 11:01Speaker 2: from the millions of insects, crews say that no one
- 11:05Speaker 2: was stung. Officials say it's a reminder that first responders
- 11:09Speaker 2: don't just save people. Sometimes twenty five million bees have
- 11:16Speaker 2: to be rescued, and they step up. They do their thing,
- 11:20Speaker 2: They do what they need to do. Every life is
- 11:23Speaker 2: important right. Residents in one Atlanta neighborhood say that fleets
- 11:28Speaker 2: of empty self driving way mow cars have been repeatedly
- 11:31Speaker 2: driving into their cul de sacs in quiet areas, sometimes
- 11:35Speaker 2: dozens at a time, especially early in the morning. Neighbors
- 11:39Speaker 2: in Battleview Drive, the area of Atlanta say that the
- 11:42Speaker 2: issue has gotten worse in recent weeks, with as many
- 11:47Speaker 2: as fifty cars passing through in a single hour. Attempts
- 11:49Speaker 2: to deter the vehicles with signs of backfired, causing some
- 11:53Speaker 2: cars to get stuck while turning around. Residents say they're
- 11:57Speaker 2: worried about safety for children and pets, and what the
- 11:59Speaker 2: vehicles to stick to main roads unless they're picking up passengers.
- 12:03Speaker 2: Waimo says that it's heard the complaints and has already
- 12:07Speaker 2: adjusted the cars routing. The company adds its service is
- 12:10Speaker 2: designed to improve safety overall, though it has faced traffic
- 12:14Speaker 2: related issues in Atlanta before. Haven't we all, It's Atlanta,
- 12:20Speaker 2: There's always gonna be traffic issues. Two American tourists have
- 12:24Speaker 2: been arrested in Japan after a stunt at a zoo
- 12:26Speaker 2: involving a viral baby monkey. Police say one man climbed
- 12:30Speaker 2: into a monkey enclosure in the Ichikawa City Zoo while
- 12:35Speaker 2: the other one filmed him. The exhibit is home to Punch,
- 12:39Speaker 2: a baby that had gained international attention earlier this year
- 12:43Speaker 2: after photos showed him clinging to a stuffed toy for comfort.
- 12:47Speaker 2: Zoo officials say the intruder never reached the animals and
- 12:50Speaker 2: was quickly stopped. No injuries or harmed to the monkeys
- 12:53Speaker 2: were reported. The two men face charges related to disrupting business,
- 12:58Speaker 2: which they deny. Authorities also say they tried to give
- 13:00Speaker 2: false names when first approached. In response, the zoo plans
- 13:04Speaker 2: tighter security around the exhibit, including barriers, increased patrols, as
- 13:08Speaker 2: well as possible restrictions on filming. Yeah, it seems like
- 13:14Speaker 2: probably a good idea. Today's show brought to you by
- 13:16Speaker 2: Columbus State Universities Coca Cola Space Science Center inspiring and
- 13:21Speaker 2: educating the youth and future STEM leaders and STEM career
- 13:26Speaker 2: holders that really of all ages. I mean they do
- 13:30Speaker 2: it for school age kids as school age kids visit
- 13:34Speaker 2: the Coca Cola Space Science Center, but they also do
- 13:36Speaker 2: it through their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics,
- 13:42Speaker 2: and the careers in space and STEM fields are booming
- 13:46Speaker 2: right now, and you can learn more about maybe getting
- 13:50Speaker 2: your degree on their website CCSSC dot org. While you're there,
- 13:57Speaker 2: also check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got
- 14:00Speaker 2: this incredible collaboration that they do with the schwob School
- 14:05Speaker 2: of Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome.
- 14:08Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 14:12Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 14:14Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 14:18Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
- 14:23Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
- 14:27Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center and the new season of Music
- 14:31Speaker 2: under the Dome. Check out upcoming dates for the shows
- 14:35Speaker 2: and also check out when the next Astronomy Night's coming
- 14:38Speaker 2: up where you can get outside. Sometimes you do it
- 14:41Speaker 2: at the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside
- 14:45Speaker 2: somewhere outside the city lights. You don't want any light interference,
- 14:48Speaker 2: and you can do that as well. Upcoming Astronomy Night events.
- 14:51Speaker 2: Also on their website, it's CCSSC dot org. As Sean
- 14:55Speaker 2: Cruisin says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I just
- 15:00Speaker 2: remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science
- 15:04Speaker 2: Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by
- 15:08Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage
- 15:11Speaker 2: door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
- 15:18Speaker 2: that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance
- 15:21Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 15:24Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 15:28Speaker 2: care of squaring that away for you, and while they're there,
- 15:31Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
- 15:33Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
- 15:37Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
- 15:40Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
- 15:42Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
- 15:45Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
- 15:49Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of installation
- 15:52Speaker 2: issue that you've got. With colder or warmer weather, sometimes
- 15:56Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
- 15:59Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
- 16:02Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
- 16:04Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
- 16:08Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
- 16:11Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
- 16:13Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
- 16:15Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
- 16:17Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
- 16:20Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
- 16:23Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
- 16:25Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
- 16:28Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
- 16:32Speaker 2: as well. Seven oh six thory five eight forty five
- 16:34Speaker 2: hundred seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred
- 16:38Speaker 2: O dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show right
- 16:42Speaker 2: after the break. You ever notice when you go to
- 16:53Speaker 2: a coffee shop you get more done in the coffee shop.
- 16:56Speaker 2: Then you actually get done when you work from home,
- 16:59Speaker 2: sometimes even work from the office. Well, there's apparently some
- 17:03Speaker 2: science behind it. Experts say it's not just the caffeine,
- 17:06Speaker 2: it's actually the environment. Coffee shops give you a mix
- 17:08Speaker 2: of just enough noise and activity to keep your brain
- 17:11Speaker 2: engage without overwhelming you, and that background buzz can actually
- 17:16Speaker 2: boost your focus, even your creativity. There's also a mindset
- 17:21Speaker 2: shift when you leave home and go somewhere new. Your
- 17:23Speaker 2: brain treats it like a reset, gets into work mode faster. Plus,
- 17:28Speaker 2: being around people working, people that are working creates a
- 17:32Speaker 2: subtle pressure for you to stay on tasks. So it's
- 17:35Speaker 2: an interesting idea there. And I guess maybe if you
- 17:38Speaker 2: ever have a situation where you kind of need that
- 17:40Speaker 2: little kick, that little bump to get you moving, maybe
- 17:44Speaker 2: a coffee shop might be somewhere to go. Minnesota has
- 17:49Speaker 2: become the first aid in the country to completely ban
- 17:53Speaker 2: online prediction markets like Caushey and Polymarket, under a new
- 17:58Speaker 2: law signed in by Governor Tim Walls. The bill makes
- 18:01Speaker 2: it a crime to advertise or host those betting platforms,
- 18:05Speaker 2: with lawmakers arguing the ban is needed to protect public
- 18:08Speaker 2: safety and prevent illegal and online gambling. The federal government
- 18:14Speaker 2: immediately fired back, as the Commodity Futures Trading Commission filed
- 18:18Speaker 2: a lawsuit to block the state's ban before it goes
- 18:21Speaker 2: into effect on August first. Legal experts say the clash
- 18:25Speaker 2: between state anti gambling laws and federal control will likely
- 18:29Speaker 2: head all the way to the US Supreme Court, So
- 18:31Speaker 2: we'll see how all this shakes out. A couple of things.
- 18:34Speaker 2: I'm not really a big fan of gambling, but you know,
- 18:37Speaker 2: I also don't think that what I'm a fan of
- 18:39Speaker 2: and not a fan of shouldn't be you know, what
- 18:42Speaker 2: other people are forced to be subjected to necessarily. But
- 18:46Speaker 2: I'm not a fan of it. I don't do it.
- 18:48Speaker 2: I really get tired of the ads, and I think
- 18:49Speaker 2: it's ruining sports. But anything Tim Waltz is for, I'm
- 18:53Speaker 2: probably going to be against. I just feel comfortable in
- 18:56Speaker 2: that space. Of course, you've heard of spam. Well, spam
- 19:00Speaker 2: launching a new product for this summer, the spam Dog.
- 19:03Speaker 2: It's basically spam just in the shape of a hot dog.
- 19:08Speaker 2: The Spam Dog designed to be served at stadiums, convenience stores,
- 19:12Speaker 2: anywhere people need something hot and fast. To eat hormale foods.
- 19:16Speaker 2: The company behind Spam and the spam Dog by Proxy
- 19:20Speaker 2: suggests this thing can be top with things like mustard,
- 19:23Speaker 2: chili cheese, as well as kimchi, pineapple, julapino salsa. You know,
- 19:28Speaker 2: it's a big thing in Hawaii. It makes sense that
- 19:29Speaker 2: you might work some pineapple in there. So no huge
- 19:34Speaker 2: surprise with that, but an interesting way to go. I mean,
- 19:38Speaker 2: I don't know that it's really a big leap from
- 19:43Speaker 2: a hot dog to a spam dog. Is it is
- 19:45Speaker 2: that much of a leap? I don't know. Fireball Whiskey
- 19:48Speaker 2: is selling a weird new gag gift for Father's Day
- 19:51Speaker 2: this year. It looks like a hairy beer belly. It's
- 19:55Speaker 2: a flesh colored fanny pack that holds a big bottle
- 19:58Speaker 2: of whiskey, which is an for about thirty five shots.
- 20:02Speaker 2: The pouchs costing twenty five dollars, even has a spout
- 20:05Speaker 2: so you can pour drinks right out of the fake stomach.
- 20:09Speaker 2: Customers who purchase the fannie pack from Fireballs website will
- 20:12Speaker 2: be pledging their support to the Dad Bod, and the
- 20:16Speaker 2: first two hundred people to do so on May twenty
- 20:18Speaker 2: second will also be given a free I love Dadbod's
- 20:20Speaker 2: bumper sticker. I mean it sounds like a series of win, win,
- 20:25Speaker 2: win win, right. I think there's a lot of wins
- 20:27Speaker 2: in that, especially if you rock the Dad Bod. Pringles
- 20:32Speaker 2: and Miller Light teaming up again to launch a new
- 20:35Speaker 2: line of chips just in time for summer grilling season.
- 20:38Speaker 2: Beginning in June. Stores will be selling a brand new
- 20:42Speaker 2: flavor called beer Cheese Burger. Yeah, the chip Blaze. Something
- 20:48Speaker 2: sounds weird about it because you're not saying the cheeseburger part.
- 20:51Speaker 2: It's like beer cheeseburger, but it's beer cheese burger, right,
- 20:56Speaker 2: I don't know. The chip blends the taste of a
- 20:58Speaker 2: burger with cheese and that smooth flavor of light beer.
- 21:03Speaker 2: They're also bringing it back another big flavor from last
- 21:07Speaker 2: year that was a hit called the beer Braced Steak,
- 21:09Speaker 2: which tastes like grilled meat with a hint of black pepper.
- 21:13Speaker 2: Both flavors limited edition, only be around while supplies last,
- 21:18Speaker 2: so you know, I try him. I didn't have the
- 21:22Speaker 2: one from last year, but I'd give it a shot.
- 21:24Speaker 2: Why not, especially the beer cheeseburger beer cheese. I guess
- 21:28Speaker 2: that's the way to say it isn't it more men
- 21:31Speaker 2: stepping into the healthcare field As the demand for nurses
- 21:34Speaker 2: continues to skyrocket. A new government report shows that now
- 21:39Speaker 2: make up nearly twelve percent of all registered nurses, practical nurses,
- 21:42Speaker 2: and nurse practitioners. It's a big jump from two thousand
- 21:46Speaker 2: and two, when men accounted for just seven percent of
- 21:50Speaker 2: the nursing workforce. That'll do it for this Friday edition
- 21:56Speaker 2: of the show. As we roll on into Memorial weekend,
- 22:01Speaker 2: I hope you take some time to reflect. Remember this
- 22:04Speaker 2: is not Veterans Day, this is a time to remember
- 22:08Speaker 2: those who made the ultimate sacrifice. And one more reminder,
- 22:12Speaker 2: fireworks are very tacky for this holiday weekend. Just don't
- 22:17Speaker 2: do it. Enjoy your barbecue, enjoy your time with family,
- 22:20Speaker 2: enjoy the freedoms that you have. Just take time to
- 22:23Speaker 2: remember and appreciate those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and
- 22:27Speaker 2: don't launch bomb fireworks over people's houses that may have PTSD.
- 22:32Speaker 2: Just take that into consideration. That's all I ask. Thanks
