  Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary and interviews you need to start
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to The West Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, fourteenth day of January. I'm Wes. Thanks for
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: joining me. I hope you survived. You're Monday the thirteenth yesterday.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, if you're listening, I suppose you did, or
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: maybe you had a rough go of it and you're
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: listening from the throes of horrible thing. When was the
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: last stretch of like a Friday the thirteenth, just on
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: the subject of superstitious stuff. I know, we've got these
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: people that will do the what's the guy's name, the
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Amazing Randy or whatever. He would do those things where
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: he would say, Hey, if you have some proof of
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: some extra terrestrial or ghostly apparition, some hardcore evidence or
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: proof of it, I'll give you a million dollar right now.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: I understand that he extended that also into religious stuff,
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: but the point is he would say that, and then
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: you know, nobody ever claimed the hardcore evidence of a
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: ghost or of an alien or whatever. And I just wonder,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: I guess along those same lines, when people freak out
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: and get really tense and crazy about Friday the thirteenth
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: and superstitious about it. I mean, am I missing out
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: on all the news about the horrible things that happen
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: on Friday the thirteenth? I know, we had a Monday
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: the thirteenth, and I've just pointed out that that's worse
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: because it's Monday. But anyway, I'm just curious the people
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: that freak out about it. Are we really having all
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: these classic examples? Do people walk under a ladder and
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: then horrible things happen to them? Or break a mirror
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: in seven years of battle? All those things the superstitions?
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Maybe you're superstitious. I'm not mocking you personally. I'm just
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: curious where the evidence is to back.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: Any of this up.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: But anyway, I know some of it is self fulfilling prophecies.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Yesterday we talked a little bit about California and the
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: press and how come it seems like they're the last
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: ones to come around and realize that Trump is about
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: to be president again. As many celebrities, they're not necessarily
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: all jumping on the Trump wagon, but they're starting to
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: come around and realize that a large percentage of Americans
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: feel a certain way about how the country's been going
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: for the last four years, and they're ready for some
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: changes and ready for things to be different. Mark Zuckerberg
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: and the whole Meta Company is one example of that.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: And I asked a question, you know about a few
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: things like why are we giving so much more attention
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: to California instead of the folks that are still dealing
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: with hurricane damage in North Carolina, Eastern Tennessee and North Georgia.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: And you know, I think a big part of the
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: answer to that question, and I went into some of
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: the things yesterday, but I didn't really say the actual answer.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: And the more I thought about it, the more I thought,
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: I think we know what the answer is. And I
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: realized I didn't actually say it yesterday, But the more
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: I really kind of dove into it, I wanted to
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: do a little research today because I'm not hearing in
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: a lot of the coverage talk about climate change. But
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: that's why this is being built as some sort of
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: a climate change related disaster that keeps happening in California,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: and these fires keep happening because of climate circumstances that
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: are making this possible, not acknowledging what the actual problem is,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: which is incompetent leadership in California. I mean, if you
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: think about what has transpired is in the time that
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: we keep having these wildfires, now controlled burning got to
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: do it. Don't know why the not doing it and
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: regularly doing it. I don't know why they didn't have
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: power and ability to pump water from the places that
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: had it stored. I don't know why there wasn't more
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: water in storage and ready there's a lot of questions
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: that a lot of people are going to ask, and
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: I understand there's still people currently dealing with the problems
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: and a lot of people are angry and frustrated and
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: trying to just figure out what to do. We had
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: all of this in with the hurricane damage as we
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: were hearing stories about you know, people that showed up
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: and you know, from FEMA and they weren't going to
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: places that had Trump signs up in those things. I
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: don't know how widespread that was, but if it happened once,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: it's too many times. But anytime you're having an event
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: like that that's close to an election, it's obviously going
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: to there's going to be political ramifications to go with it.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: There are some now because quite frankly, there are a
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: lot of people that are very upset. They're frustrated, they're
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: angry with leadership. They're specifically angry with California's Governor, Gavin
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: knew someone who many thought, I mean, let's be honest,
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: I thought at one point he was going to be
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: the candidate for the Democrat Party in this past election.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: I do think that was part of what they were
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: hoping to do. I think he was a big part
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: of their switcher root plans and it just didn't pan out.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: It didn't work out the way that they hoped that
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: it would. I think he is the person that they
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: believed after the election was over that would be their
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: next realistically their next candidate for president. Know, they've been
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: talk about Kathy Hochle, and there's been a few other
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: names turn around. I don't know how serious any of
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: these are, but I do know that this Gavin Newsom
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: thing is definitely in jeopardy. I'm going to give you
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: this as an example, because this isn't me politicizing something.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: This is just me letting you hear.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: What One resident in the Pacific Palisades her name Rachel Darvish.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: This audio was caught of her chasing down Governor of California,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom as he was getting ready to as he says,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: he was getting ready to call President Biden to talk
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: to him about the disaster area. And this is the exchange.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: That they had.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: And I'm gonna get the audio up as high as
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: I can get it.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: But here you go, Governor, you got a second.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: Governor.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Governor, I live here. Governor, that was my daughter's school. Governor,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Please tell me what you're gonna do. I want to
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: be here.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: When you call the President.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: I appreciate it. I'm doing that right now.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: And to immediately get reimbursements, individual assistance and to help
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: God with devis looking for you.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: I'm so sorry, especially for your daughter. I have four kids.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Everyone who went to school there, they lost their homes.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: They lost two homes because they were living in one
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: and building another.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Ketter, please tell me, tell me what are you going
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: to do with the president. Right now, we're getting we're
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: getting the resources to help rebuild. Is there no water
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: in the hydrants?
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Governor?
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: That's all?
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: Literally?
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: Is it going to be different next time?
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: It has to be so?
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: This woman and this was captured I guess by Sky News,
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: who was the news affiliate that captured the audio, and
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: I wanted to acknowledge them for grabbing that and a
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: great grab. I think that's a very genuine, very real
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: moment for a parent, someone who has lost a home,
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: someone whose children have lost a school and really have
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: lost everything, and an opportunity that she had to be
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: able to stand there and talk with the Governor of California,
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: the person that many feel bears most of the response
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: ability for the lack of competency on how this has
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: been handled. You can't see it, obviously because this is
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: an audio show, but I wanted to mention that folks
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: in LA have been told repeatedly to wear masks. They're
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: there encouraged or told that they need to wear masks
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: when they're outdoors. And the woman, part of why her
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: voice was slightly muffled is that she was doing what
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: she had been told to do, which was wearing a mask.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: And it's got to do with them breathing in things
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: in the air. Newsom was not wearing a mask.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: And this isn't me.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: We're not going to get into the mask shaming and
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: all those sorts of things. That's that's not the concern
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: here for me. It just it was eerily reminiscent of
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: the way things were during COVID. You know, Newsom was
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: one of the ones who said, you know, don't go
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: out in public, and then he was out having dinner
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: party and things so eerily similar to all of that,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: and something I touched on yesterday. And I just think
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: it's important, and I do think climate change is this
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: is being discussed as the reason for this is not
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: in competency in leadership. It's about wildfires based on conditions
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: created because of climate change. And I want to stress too,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: I think that that's probably why. And I know it's
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: la and the reasons that I said yesterday or why
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: it's getting a lot of the attention, but I do
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: think that there are other reasons. I do think the
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: folks that are paying attention or looking at this failed
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: leadership and realizing Gavin Newsom does not need to be
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: anywhere near the White House. He doesn't even need to
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: visit the White House again, he doesn't need to do that.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: He needs to stay in California. He should probably resign
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: and you know, just move on, just move on. But
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: that's not for me to decide. That's for the people
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: of California to decide. I do think that they should
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: send him a loud and clear message like this woman did.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: The other thing that I talked about yesterday, and I
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: touched on it very briefly, but I wanted to dive
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: into this just a little bit more.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: There's been talk about how there was.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: Money that was taken out of the budget for firefighting
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: in California. Knew some stresses. The truth, California did not
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: cut our firefighting budget. We have nearly doubled the size
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: of our firefighting army and built the world's largest aerial Sorry,
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: this jumped on me to aerial team to fight the wildfires.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: I'm summarizing here a little bit.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: So what ultimately happened here is he says there's this misinformation.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Now there was there was a budget issue when it
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: comes to the aerial fight firefighting fleet. They're calling it
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: so which is incredible, by the way, watching these guys
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: drop this any sort of chemicals or water or whatever
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: it is that they're dropping, it's just unreal how specific
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: they can target it and just doing an incredible job.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: But he wanted to start a website, californiafirefacts dot com
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: that can explain things like the truth.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: Another truth.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: He says, California has increased for its forest management tenfold
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: since we took office. California will not allow for looting.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: So this website, californiafirefacts dot com when started, and I
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: guess it's still there as of this.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: Morning, but.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Basically has a link to it says you can contribute
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: to California Fire Foundation, and it's going through an organization
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: called Act Blue, and they say that that organization will
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: deliver the donations to firefighters and devastated communities, and they say,
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: please make a contribution to the California Fire Foundation tax
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: deductible anyway. So it goes through Act Blue, which is
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: a Democrat fundraising organization. So basically, if you click on
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: that button, you're taken to an act Blue URL where
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: people can make donations twenty five dollars to one thousand
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: dollars or set your own amount if.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: You want to do that.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: And then there's also a place where you will be
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: signed up for messages text messages from a pack committee
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: political action committee for Newsom's campaign for Democracy.
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: So, assuming that take them.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: At their word, you make a donation there, and you
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: are trying to give money to the people of California
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: beyond the tax money that you're going to be giving
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: to them. That's the way it works. But you're also
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: going to be signed up to be a part of
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: ultimately those emails and text messages that you're going to
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: get from Gavin. This Gavin Newsom pack that was launched
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: in twenty twenty three and it was supposed to be
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: active blew itself massive Democratic Political Action Committee.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: So anyway, this is.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: They say none of the money goes to Newsom himself
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: or to anything as far as any campaigns in the future.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: But if there's any benefit to this pack, this political.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: Action committee and related to Newsom, if there's any benefit
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: to signing up donors or potential donors.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: That's not good.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: That's a rmy and and Weasley as it gets. And
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: when you look at Gavin Newsom, you see guy who
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: looks smarmy and weasly.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: To begin with, it's awful. This is a horrible look.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: It's a horrible thing, and it's disgusting. I got one
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: more quick thing. This is completely unrelated. It's related in
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: that it's not Newsome specific, but it's it's related in
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: general as it relates to the fires. But I also
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: saw this story and I just remember thinking, what, but
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: did you see that Ukraine? The Ukrainian President Zelenski is
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: sending one hundred and fifty firefighters.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: To la to help fight the blaze. It's a nice gesture.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: I'm not knocking it, because we've done a lot for
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: Ukraine and it's nice that Ukraine wants to do something
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: for us. But aren't aren't they still busy? Don't they
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: still have things going on in Ukraine? Are they using
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: money that we've sent them for warsport to fly them back?
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Like?
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: Are we paying to fly them back.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Over here to help as firefighters?
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Is? I don't know?
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: I don't I have mixed feelings on this. I certainly
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: don't feel like this is the best use of resources.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: I'm sure they're great firefighters. I'm sure that they would
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: be beneficial and helpful to the cause. I really do
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: believe that and assume that that would be the case.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: It's just a strange Again, it's a nice nod.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: It's a nice payback, I guess to us for being
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: helpful to them.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: But is it weird? Am I the only one that
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: thinks it just sounds weird? There's something about this headline
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: that just seems weird.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 15:56

  Speaker 2: work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: sort of insulation issue that you've got. With colder or
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know,
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man cavid you'd
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: like to be able to open the door up and
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: not invite all the insects in. They can do that
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: for you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, And they do
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh sixty five eight forty five
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: hundred seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: o dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show right
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: after the break. Well, if you're still not taking down
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: your Christmas decorations yet, might not be that big of
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: a deal. I mean, unless you got one of those
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: home owners Association right from those presidents breathing down your neck. Well,
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: a new survey found fifty five percent of those who
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: responded voted that January sixteenth is the unofficial takedown date
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: for holiday decorations. So technically you got a couple more days,
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: you had a few more days. But if you want
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: to leave them up all year, they said, that's okay too,
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: according to many of those surveyed. In fact, forty five
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: percent said that keeping the lights and decorations up year
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: round is perfectly fine.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Again, probably not an hoa situation.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Holidays are over, which means it's time for the holiday
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: money hangover. According to a new wallet up survey, one
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: in ten people overspent on gifts for the holidays. Forty
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: five percent said they have no idea how they're going
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: to pay off the debt. In fact, twenty percent expect
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: to be adding on to that debt this year. The
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: average American household has about ten seven hundred dollars in
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: credit card debt, and twenty percent believe the debt will
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: prevent them from retiring when they want to. We all
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: go to work every day knowing what we have to do,
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: but to what end do you know what your daily
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: work actually achieves? Believe it or not, a lot of
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: people don't. According to a new poll, twenty three percent
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: of people said that they are aware of how their
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: individual contributions at work support the company's goals and growth,
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: fifty one percent saying that if their company was more
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: transparent and better at explaining how their job contributed, it
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: would help them better manage their job and make them
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: more productive. I realize that there have to be some
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: job situations where this would apply, but there can't be many,
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: can they. I mean, if you're in customer service, you
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: probably understand providing good customer service is beneficial to the company.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: If you're in sales and you sell things, you have
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: to understand that's good for the company. Right If you're
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: in marketing and you are promoting things for the company
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: or for another company, you can understand how that's beneficial.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: I don't get it even if you're just a number
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: cruncher and all day, you're just crunching numbers. Hey, somebody's
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: looking at those numbers, right in theory, I mean they
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: should be. They're asking you for the numbers, they should
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: be looking at them. I have had people ask me
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: for numbers in the past that I'm pretty sure they
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: never actually looked at. I think twenty three percent seems high.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: For the people who don't, I think that's a that's
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: a them issue. Maybe not a I mean there's got
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: to be some companies, but I think that's more of
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: a them issue than a company issue. That's just my
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: thoughts for that twenty three percent, that's a lot. Well,
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: we can all agree you can never have too many
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: pizza places unless you happen to live in the town
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: of Backup, England that's near Manchester. A pizza chain called
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Woody's Pizza submitted an application with the town board to
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: open a new location, promising to buy ingredients from local
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: producers and suppliers, but the town rejected the application on
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: the grounds that the kids in the town were already
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: too fat and another pizza shot would contribute to an
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: obesity problem, arguing that only one in five eleven year
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: old kids are obese and that They cite an abundance
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: of takeout businesses as the culprit I said only one
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: in five, But it says that one in five, and
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: that's a lot twenty percent. That's not an only that's
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: a lot of obesity. But for kids, I mean eleven
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: year old. So yeah, I mean, I would think that
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: it's not necessarily the fault of the pizza shop. It's
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: the people sending the kids in with the money to
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: buy the pizza, Isn't it.
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: All right?

• 23:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's not necessarily a bad thing, but I
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: don't think that they're the reason. The real estate company

• 23:51
  Speaker 2: twenty five based on expected home value appreciation this year,
