- 0:01Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews you need to start
- 0:05Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, ninth day of June. I'm Wes, thanks for
- 0:17Speaker 2: joining me. I didn't think about this yesterday because there's
- 0:22Speaker 2: so many of these days that jump in and it's
- 0:26Speaker 2: you know, Sun's Day and Daughter's Day and Donuts Day.
- 0:30Speaker 2: I think there's two Donuts Days and two Sun's Days.
- 0:33Speaker 2: So it's hard to keep up with that because you
- 0:35Speaker 2: don't really know which is which. I mean, you know
- 0:38Speaker 2: which is which, but I'm saying, you don't know which
- 0:40Speaker 2: one's the real one.
- 0:42Speaker 3: And then they have you know.
- 0:44Speaker 2: Cat's Day and Dog's Day and all these different things.
- 0:47Speaker 2: But yestera siblings day. But yesterday was best Friends Day,
- 0:53Speaker 2: the eighth of June, and I didn't think to mention
- 0:56Speaker 2: that to you. So if you missed out on acknowledging
- 0:58Speaker 2: your best friend on Ben's best friend, you're probably in
- 1:01Speaker 2: the majority, because I don't know that most people know.
- 1:02Speaker 2: That's the thing depends on how into the social media
- 1:06Speaker 2: you are. Whether you were aware of that yesterday. The
- 1:08Speaker 2: main reason it came to my attention is that I do,
- 1:12Speaker 2: in fact have an app for a certain restaurant that
- 1:15Speaker 2: sells like burritos and tacos, and they were saying, hey,
- 1:18Speaker 2: come and buy one, get one free for your friend.
- 1:21Speaker 2: So that's how I knew about it for your best
- 1:23Speaker 2: friend at that So just thought i'd share just in case.
- 1:28Speaker 2: And if you happen to have that same app and
- 1:32Speaker 2: that same restaurant, apparently if you are a member on
- 1:36Speaker 2: their app, then you can continue the best friend, buy one,
- 1:41Speaker 2: get one burritos. I guess through the fourteenth or something
- 1:43Speaker 2: on is that Sunday, Just sharing some info the early
- 1:49Speaker 2: voting for the Columbus Georgia area for Muskogee County, and
- 1:53Speaker 2: I guess some of the places around the country that
- 1:57Speaker 2: are doing the next phase of like runoffs. We've got
- 2:01Speaker 2: runoffs going here. So early voting runs until Friday the
- 2:07Speaker 2: twelfth at the City Services Center seven eight to seven
- 2:12Speaker 2: p And just mentioning some of the things that are
- 2:17Speaker 2: up for grabs. We've got school superintendent runoff that's happening,
- 2:22Speaker 2: the Secretary of State and this is the primary things
- 2:26Speaker 2: on the Lieutenant Governor doles All and Kennedy. And then
- 2:30Speaker 2: it's interesting you got John F. Kennedy, you know, not
- 2:34Speaker 2: the John F. Kennedy obviously, and then the first time
- 2:37Speaker 2: I ever heard the name Greg Dole is all the
- 2:40Speaker 2: first thing I thought was about the you know, the
- 2:42Speaker 2: lady and was it Oregon that said she was black?
- 2:46Speaker 2: But she wasn't and got away with that for a
- 2:48Speaker 2: long time, and you know, I think technically still got.
- 2:52Speaker 3: Away with it.
- 2:54Speaker 2: I would have thought there would have been, you know,
- 2:56Speaker 2: a much harsher punishment for that, just in society.
- 3:00Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know what her day to
- 3:02Speaker 3: day is like.
- 3:02Speaker 2: I don't know if people are always you know, shooting
- 3:05Speaker 2: her looks or anything. I don't know if she just
- 3:08Speaker 2: stopped with the tanners or whatever she was doing. Like
- 3:11Speaker 2: that movie soul Man. She was living the movie soul Man,
- 3:15Speaker 2: and everybody says, there's no way they can make the
- 3:18Speaker 2: movie sole Man again today. And when this lady lived it,
- 3:24Speaker 2: she went around and told everybody and that's what she said,
- 3:27Speaker 2: and she was working with she said that that's what
- 3:30Speaker 2: she believed to be. And I think, you know, as
- 3:33Speaker 2: long as people are saying that they believe that they
- 3:36Speaker 2: are a different gender, or that they're a cat or
- 3:39Speaker 2: any of those things, I don't know why someone can't
- 3:42Speaker 2: be believe that they're a different gender. They can associate
- 3:45Speaker 2: with a different gender, but you know, society tends to
- 3:48Speaker 2: shun those people. And I feel like, in some ways,
- 3:51Speaker 2: maybe she just got away with one, because I don't
- 3:54Speaker 2: think anybody's really run her out of town.
- 3:56Speaker 3: Maybe they did. I don't know where she ended.
- 3:58Speaker 2: Up, and I'm not gonna look it up because I
- 4:00Speaker 2: don't really care that much. But this is a different dult.
- 4:04Speaker 2: She's not running for a lieutenant governor. She's she's not
- 4:10Speaker 2: in the in the race in Georgia for the Republicans. Uh.
- 4:14Speaker 2: And then we've got for US Senate on the Republican side,
- 4:18Speaker 2: Mike Collins and Derek Dooley. For governor, we got Rick
- 4:21Speaker 2: Jackson and Bert Jones in the runoff. And then of course,
- 4:25Speaker 2: UH city council, the citywide city council seat John Anchor
- 4:30Speaker 2: and Kathy Cook. I should have done this where you go,
- 4:34Speaker 2: like for citywide city Council John Anchor, or Kathy Cook,
- 4:41Speaker 2: and for Mayor Joeanne Cogel. That's where we're at on that.
- 4:49Speaker 2: I'm not gonna do it on any of the other ones,
- 4:50Speaker 2: but I'll do it for those comfortably. H We have
- 4:53Speaker 2: a situation where you and I just bumped into uh
- 4:57Speaker 2: Joeanne Cogle the other day. Uh, but and I was
- 5:01Speaker 2: on the phone. I really wanted to say, hey, good
- 5:03Speaker 2: luck in the week coming up, a week and a
- 5:05Speaker 2: half coming up. But you know, she knows, she knows
- 5:09Speaker 2: where I'm at on that. But I had to just
- 5:11Speaker 2: give her a wave. So if she's listening, I just
- 5:14Speaker 2: want you to know, that's what the wave meant, right,
- 5:17Speaker 2: That's exactly what I meant by the wave. But I
- 5:22Speaker 2: said hi, I guess if I spoke, I could have.
- 5:25Speaker 3: Said more than that. She knows.
- 5:27Speaker 2: So a couple of things, And as a good friend
- 5:31Speaker 2: of mine pointed out, like, if by some chance Joey
- 5:36Speaker 2: Andne Kogle is not our next mayor, it is very
- 5:39Speaker 2: important that we get you know, don't hand off the
- 5:45Speaker 2: title of mayor to Isaiah Hughley with control of city
- 5:48Speaker 2: council where he can just kind of do have his
- 5:51Speaker 2: agenda laid out. So it's important on the John Ankor
- 5:55Speaker 2: vote as well. I'm just pointing that out, just passing that.
- 5:58Speaker 3: Along from a friend.
- 6:00Speaker 2: Uh So that that's what we got shaping up and
- 6:03Speaker 2: we we have to uh as as we discussed in
- 6:09Speaker 2: the in the first go round. In this primary season,
- 6:13Speaker 2: the Democrats have got this situation where they you know,
- 6:19Speaker 2: they kind of know they know who is going to
- 6:24Speaker 2: be their candidate. It's not really so much of it
- 6:26Speaker 2: like who's gonna who's gonna get the Like we knew
- 6:29Speaker 2: that uh Mayor Bottoms from Atlanta was going to be
- 6:35Speaker 2: the uh, the candidate for governor and uh, you know,
- 6:40Speaker 2: it's it's turned into like now they got to get
- 6:42Speaker 2: into around Columbus and tell everybody how bad Rick Jackson.
- 6:46Speaker 3: And bur John's are. They've they've mobilized, They've mobilized.
- 6:51Speaker 2: That's what I heard. I heard that the other day
- 6:53Speaker 2: that they were mobilized. But you know, they still they're
- 6:55Speaker 2: seventy and eighty and they think they're still in fraternities
- 6:57Speaker 2: and sororities. So it doesn't surprise me that they've mobilized
- 7:01Speaker 2: around Columbus. But they will be out in full force,
- 7:06Speaker 2: voting early and then you know, voting on election day
- 7:09Speaker 2: and sitting in the polls and they're purple and green.
- 7:14Speaker 2: But we got a turnout for Coal and Anchor. You know,
- 7:19Speaker 2: those of us that I was never in a fraternity,
- 7:23Speaker 2: but if I had been in one at this point
- 7:25Speaker 2: in my life at fifty one, I would I would
- 7:27Speaker 2: not be looking back, you know, like Uncle Rico and
- 7:30Speaker 2: Napoleon Dynamite at my glory days of being in a fraternity.
- 7:35Speaker 2: But we have to, you know, handle business and the
- 7:40Speaker 2: fact that we've got some of these runoffs for Republicans.
- 7:45Speaker 2: Hopefully we'll have a turnout that's needed because the early
- 7:49Speaker 2: voting tends to go to the left around here. Maybe
- 7:53Speaker 2: we won't have one of those deals like in California,
- 7:55Speaker 2: where you know it's really close and then they sit
- 7:59Speaker 2: around and dig around enough to to make sure that
- 8:03Speaker 2: they got enough votes that they need.
- 8:06Speaker 3: We don't.
- 8:07Speaker 2: We've we've never had any of that. Nancy Bourne does
- 8:09Speaker 2: a great job. I'm not going no disrespect to her.
- 8:12Speaker 2: So maybe we won't have that. And I say California,
- 8:15Speaker 2: but it's the it's the same show that happens in
- 8:20Speaker 2: Fulton County every every election.
- 8:23Speaker 3: Every we have to keep it open late.
- 8:26Speaker 2: We got to bring them in and give them pizza
- 8:28Speaker 2: because you know, we couldn't get them in here to vote,
- 8:31Speaker 2: and they say no more pizza, and then it turns
- 8:34Speaker 2: into a whole thing on It turns into a whole
- 8:37Speaker 2: thing on a Curby your enthusiasm a whole season plot
- 8:40Speaker 2: point for that. So it's it's really it's tarting to
- 8:46Speaker 2: get really nasty. And today is not just a part
- 8:52Speaker 2: of because today is an election day, but it's it's
- 8:54Speaker 2: early voting day for us here. It is election day
- 8:58Speaker 2: for the primaries in a few states with things going on.
- 9:02Speaker 2: Maine is one of the main focuses, and we've been
- 9:05Speaker 2: talking Graham Platner. Listen, that race itself is obviously big
- 9:10Speaker 2: when it comes to control the Senate and what's going
- 9:12Speaker 2: on there. I don't talk about it because you know,
- 9:16Speaker 2: I don't. We have listeners in Maine. We do, thank you,
- 9:19Speaker 2: God bless you. We got listeners in every state, and
- 9:21Speaker 2: I appreciate that very much. And I don't mean to
- 9:24Speaker 2: ignore your state in any way. And I know that
- 9:30Speaker 2: you know a lot of our listeners are in the Southeast.
- 9:32Speaker 2: So some may be going, let's all, let's talk about this,
- 9:35Speaker 2: But the importance of talking about this is not this
- 9:41Speaker 2: race is important, but it's really important that we understand
- 9:46Speaker 2: what's happening in politics in this country on the Democrat side,
- 9:54Speaker 2: where they're just saying, look, we will take anyone, we
- 9:59Speaker 2: will we would vote for the worst human possible if
- 10:04Speaker 2: it meant we get control of the Senate, we would
- 10:06Speaker 2: vote for anyone if we think that that will work.
- 10:10Speaker 2: And you know, I don't think that's even a stretch
- 10:13Speaker 2: when you look at the laundry list, and we've covered
- 10:15Speaker 2: the laundry list for quite some time, so just interesting
- 10:21Speaker 2: the soul selling that's taking place in the name of.
- 10:24Speaker 3: Power and control.
- 10:26Speaker 2: And look, we talk about this often, the desperation to
- 10:32Speaker 2: hold on to control, the desperation to have some sort
- 10:37Speaker 2: of a grip on things to the point of selling
- 10:41Speaker 2: out the whole country. You think about the desperation of control,
- 10:47Speaker 2: of allowing millions across the border to just come in
- 10:52Speaker 2: the country, no vetting, no checking, no idea who they are,
- 10:57Speaker 2: where they came from. Their purpose in being here is
- 11:02Speaker 2: just to stay here long enough to get counted in
- 11:06Speaker 2: the census. That's it. They get counted in the census.
- 11:11Speaker 2: As far as many are concerned, you could ship them
- 11:13Speaker 2: on out. They don't even have to. They've served their
- 11:15Speaker 2: purpose because you have parts of the country that that's
- 11:19Speaker 2: what they are here for, is so that they can
- 11:21Speaker 2: be counted and they can affect the representation moving forward.
- 11:26Speaker 2: They can have an effect on the presidential elections. They
- 11:29Speaker 2: can have because it has an effect on the electoral college.
- 11:34Speaker 2: So there's a lot at stake there. And if people
- 11:36Speaker 2: are willing to just let anyone in. And when you
- 11:40Speaker 2: start thinking about people who've been killed by illegals, I
- 11:45Speaker 2: don't have a problem with that term. I know some
- 11:46Speaker 2: people do, but and some some you could call undocumented.
- 11:52Speaker 2: You want to talk about somebody who overstate a visa
- 11:55Speaker 2: and they've you know, trying to do their paperwork and
- 11:58Speaker 2: get caught up in whatever. If you want to call
- 12:01Speaker 2: them undocumented, you do that, you go for it. I
- 12:04Speaker 2: don't want to pretend that, you know, rapists and murderers
- 12:09Speaker 2: that come in the country are anything other than illegals
- 12:13Speaker 2: in the country. But anyway, so people that are willing
- 12:16Speaker 2: to do that, and people are willing to there's a
- 12:18Speaker 2: thing that we do where we're willing to sacrifice who
- 12:23Speaker 2: we are, what we stand for, in the name of control,
- 12:28Speaker 2: in the name of power, in the in the name
- 12:31Speaker 2: of making ourselves feel better about what we're willing to
- 12:35Speaker 2: to sacrifice. And I think that you know, we've we've
- 12:40Speaker 2: gone through this a couple of times with some candidates
- 12:43Speaker 2: on both sides. But this is this is an especially
- 12:48Speaker 2: ugly situation because, as we've been talking about, Platner is
- 12:52Speaker 2: somebody who checks all of the boxes, all of them,
- 12:59Speaker 2: that the Left is right to accuse Donald Trump of
- 13:02Speaker 2: being right, all of them, and they're happy to support
- 13:07Speaker 2: him no matter what. I wasn't specifically going to address this,
- 13:13Speaker 2: but I thought this kind of fits with this whole thing.
- 13:16Speaker 2: And I know someone who in a conversation we had
- 13:19Speaker 2: just the other day, we were just talking about some
- 13:26Speaker 2: Hollywood people, some celebrities that have have had incidents of
- 13:31Speaker 2: accusations about inappropriate conduct and you know, in some cases
- 13:37Speaker 2: rape or sexual assault or these kinds of things, and
- 13:41Speaker 2: just the subject came up about it, and we were
- 13:44Speaker 2: just talking about a couple of actors in particular, and
- 13:47Speaker 2: this person I was talking to, who's a friend, basically
- 13:53Speaker 2: said something to the effect of, you know, well, I'm
- 13:57Speaker 2: just not going to hate on those people, you know,
- 14:00Speaker 2: And I just thought rapists like and I understand. I
- 14:08Speaker 2: think it was more just coming from a place of
- 14:11Speaker 2: you know, I can still appreciate their movies, and I
- 14:15Speaker 2: think that's or their art, you know, if they haven't
- 14:17Speaker 2: been arrested and they're not charged, And I'm trying to
- 14:20Speaker 2: defend a little bit of the sentiment that was there,
- 14:24Speaker 2: because this wasn't someone that I considered to be malicious
- 14:27Speaker 2: in any way. I wouldn't consider anyone a friend who
- 14:31Speaker 2: was just you know, boy, I'm sticking up.
- 14:33Speaker 3: For them rapists. That wasn't what he was doing.
- 14:37Speaker 2: But he was just kind of making himself feel a
- 14:39Speaker 2: little bit better about the fact that he you know,
- 14:42Speaker 2: their their performers that aren't arrested, that aren't in jail,
- 14:47Speaker 2: that he appreciates their work, and he doesn't really know
- 14:51Speaker 2: enough to say, you know, they definitely did these things
- 14:55Speaker 2: with you know, multiple accusers, and that's because he wants
- 15:00Speaker 2: It comes down to what we want to do sometimes
- 15:03Speaker 2: and sometimes we look past things, we look beyond certain
- 15:07Speaker 2: things that maybe aren't as labeled or drawn as clearly. Now,
- 15:13Speaker 2: this is someone who I believe firmly that if someone
- 15:17Speaker 2: were charged, arrested, thrown in jail, I'm sure they would
- 15:21Speaker 2: say that's a bad human being. But just to have
- 15:25Speaker 2: these little accusations about them and they're still working in Hollywood,
- 15:29Speaker 2: and maybe the accusations aren't true, and they deserve a
- 15:34Speaker 2: second chance, and I'm willing to give certainly a friend,
- 15:37Speaker 2: the benefit of the doubt in that because again I
- 15:39Speaker 2: don't in any way think this is someone who was.
- 15:42Speaker 3: Like, boy, them rapists, I'm on their side.
- 15:45Speaker 2: That's not what he was doing, but just kind of
- 15:48Speaker 2: the way it came out, and having to give someone
- 15:51Speaker 2: the benefit of the doubt, which is something that we
- 15:53Speaker 2: should be doing for each other period. But it reflects
- 15:58Speaker 2: a lot of what's going on in this situation with politics,
- 16:01Speaker 2: except they're defending someone who again they're willing to say
- 16:07Speaker 2: this guy's a liar, he's a rapist, he's a Nazi
- 16:11Speaker 2: at heart, he's anti Semitic, he's all these things. But
- 16:16Speaker 2: we just need him to win, like we need that
- 16:19Speaker 2: power and that control. We need it, like that's what
- 16:24Speaker 2: takes all priority over, like putting a really bad human
- 16:27Speaker 2: being in the Senate, and it's something that we're and
- 16:31Speaker 2: I'm I'm kind of referencing this on a very small
- 16:34Speaker 2: scale of someone who could say, hey, I can still
- 16:37Speaker 2: appreciate these old movies from this person, or you know,
- 16:41Speaker 2: maybe we just sure Bill Cosby is a creepy guy
- 16:46Speaker 2: that's not who we were talking about, but and has
- 16:48Speaker 2: done some horrible things. But it doesn't mean that his
- 16:53Speaker 2: comedy wasn't still funny. Now, we should have known some
- 16:56Speaker 2: of the you know, Spanish fly humor in there, that
- 16:59Speaker 2: that should have been a dead giveaway that something was
- 17:02Speaker 2: going on there when he was making those jokes. But
- 17:06Speaker 2: it's just this sad thing that we're because of something
- 17:09Speaker 2: that we want, we're willing to overlook something horrific like this.
- 17:15Speaker 2: And I know folks on the left will go, well,
- 17:17Speaker 2: Donald Trump had somebody, you know, he had a civil
- 17:20Speaker 2: case where or they don't say that, they say he's
- 17:21Speaker 2: a convicted rapist, a civil case of someone who go
- 17:26Speaker 2: listen to Egen Carroll's comments on what rape is, and
- 17:30Speaker 2: you tell me this is a sane human being that's
- 17:32Speaker 2: giving an accurate representation of what rape is, because that's
- 17:37Speaker 2: not what That's not what I've heard from her. No, no, no,
- 17:41Speaker 2: she think it's some kind of a weird fantasy, some
- 17:43Speaker 2: kind of weird like sexual fantasy, arousal thing.
- 17:47Speaker 3: Listen just her words. You listen to her.
- 17:50Speaker 2: And go and think that this is anything other than
- 17:53Speaker 2: blowing something up or calling Trump, you know, a convicted felon,
- 17:56Speaker 2: and all the things that you go, well, look into
- 17:58Speaker 2: how they got there into the reach on how they
- 18:01Speaker 2: got there, So it is different. But we're talking about
- 18:05Speaker 2: people who said the Me Too movement, all women have
- 18:09Speaker 2: to be believed. Graham Platner has women who have made
- 18:11Speaker 2: accusations against him, and yet all these politicians who you know,
- 18:17Speaker 2: went after Brett Kavanaugh, and I don't think Republicans should
- 18:20Speaker 2: be screaming this from the rooftop. By the way, They've
- 18:23Speaker 2: made such a big deal about Brett Kavanaugh and talking
- 18:26Speaker 2: about him, and I thought, this is I understand what
- 18:31Speaker 2: you're saying. I just think that drawing more attention to
- 18:34Speaker 2: that as we're trying to make sure that we don't
- 18:37Speaker 2: end up with, you know, thirty five new Supreme Court justices,
- 18:42Speaker 2: the next opportunity that Democrats get, we got to make
- 18:45Speaker 2: sure that that's off the table. We just we can't
- 18:48Speaker 2: do that. So it's an interesting path on it. But
- 18:53Speaker 2: today is election day there we'll see how this goes.
- 18:56Speaker 2: And is he going to be the candidate that they
- 18:59Speaker 2: move forward with. Are they eventually gonna yank him off
- 19:02Speaker 2: the ticket and replace him with you know, Stephen King
- 19:05Speaker 2: or somebody I don't know. Today's show brought to you

- 20:05Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 20:09Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
- 20:14Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
- 20:18Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center. And the new season of Music
- 20:22Speaker 2: under the Dome. Check out upcoming dates for the shows
- 20:26Speaker 2: and also check out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up.
- 20:29Speaker 2: Where you can get outside. Sometimes you do it at
- 20:32Speaker 2: the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere
- 20:36Speaker 2: outside the city lights. You don't want any light interference,
- 20:39Speaker 2: and you can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night events.
- 20:42Speaker 2: Also on their website. It's CCSSC dot org. As Sean
- 20:46Speaker 2: Crusan says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I just
- 20:51Speaker 2: remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science
- 20:55Speaker 2: Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by
- 20:59Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage
- 21:02Speaker 2: door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
- 21:08Speaker 2: that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance
- 21:12Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 21:15Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 21:19Speaker 2: care of square and that away for you, and while
- 21:21Speaker 2: they're there, you can always ask them questions about some
- 21:24Speaker 2: of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to
- 21:26Speaker 2: your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what
- 21:30Speaker 2: you want it to be and you need some repair
- 21:32Speaker 2: work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a
- 21:35Speaker 2: brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise
- 21:39Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
- 21:42Speaker 2: sort of installation issue that you've got. With colder or
- 21:45Speaker 2: warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
- 21:49Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
- 21:51Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
- 21:55Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
- 21:57Speaker 2: space as a sort of out.
- 21:59Speaker 3: Door but indoor.
- 22:01Speaker 2: You know, if you like to work on your own
- 22:02Speaker 2: cars in there, or maybe you just want a little
- 22:05Speaker 2: man cavid you'd like to be able to open the
- 22:07Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in. They
- 22:10Speaker 2: can do that for you as well, and again they
- 22:12Speaker 2: do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought
- 22:15Speaker 2: of having your car trapped inside your garage and your
- 22:18Speaker 2: garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help,
- 22:21Speaker 2: and they do those as well. Seven oh sixty five
- 22:24Speaker 2: eight forty five hundred, seven oh six three five eight
- 22:27Speaker 2: forty five hundred O dccolumbus dot com more West Carol
- 22:32Speaker 2: Morning Show. Right after the break, so a team of
- 22:43Speaker 2: archaeologists and filmmakers have made history. They've discovered and filmed
- 22:51Speaker 2: some of the first ever shipwrecks tied to real life's
- 22:54Speaker 2: Golden age of piracy in the Bahamas. The team explored
- 22:59Speaker 2: NASA Harbor, the base of iconic pirates like Blackbeard Calico
- 23:04Speaker 2: Jack back in the seventeen hundreds, and filmed six historic wrecks.
- 23:09Speaker 2: They found heavily armed holes packed with anti personnel swivel guns,
- 23:15Speaker 2: a sword sharpening grindstone, and charred timber legs, proving that
- 23:24Speaker 2: the pirates burned and captured ships to hide their crimes.
- 23:27Speaker 2: The incredible discoveries are being featured in a new documentary
- 23:31Speaker 2: series that include the first accurate three D model of
- 23:35Speaker 2: what the real pirate town looked like in seventeen fifteen.
- 23:40Speaker 3: This is cool stuff.
- 23:42Speaker 2: It's the kind of stuff usually you have to get
- 23:44Speaker 2: James Cameron involved in. I assume his name would be
- 23:46Speaker 2: listed if he was involved in this.
- 23:49Speaker 3: But it's pretty good stuff.
- 23:51Speaker 2: Maybe they could make some movies about this pirate age,
- 23:57Speaker 2: you know, now that they've got some of this real footage,
- 23:59Speaker 2: speaking of gym camera, I don't know. Johnny Depp maybe
- 24:02Speaker 2: could be in it, just some ideas, just as possible.
- 24:05Speaker 2: Orlando bloom maybe just a few suggestions if they know
- 24:10Speaker 2: I don't want any money for the royalties of this,
- 24:13Speaker 2: I just just throwing out ideas that's something.
- 24:16Speaker 3: They could do.
- 24:16Speaker 2: Now, this is pretty fascinating stuff, and a look at
- 24:20Speaker 2: a time that we don't really have a look at,
- 24:23Speaker 2: so pretty good stuff. A new study found that everyday
- 24:27Speaker 2: gamers are more open minded and welcoming than the average American.
- 24:32Speaker 3: This might seem surprising.
- 24:34Speaker 2: Researchers looked at data from more than seventy seven thousand
- 24:38Speaker 2: people over an eight year span to see if playing
- 24:40Speaker 2: video games made people more sexist or racist. The results
- 24:44Speaker 2: showed the exact opposite. Gamers way more likely to support
- 24:49Speaker 2: equal rights and social tolerance than the general public, even
- 24:53Speaker 2: though people who play violent first person shooters or hang
- 24:56Speaker 2: out Xbox Network scored just as high or even higher
- 25:00Speaker 2: in fairness and kindness as everyone else. Scientists say that
- 25:05Speaker 2: while there are definitely still toxic jerks online, there are
- 25:10Speaker 2: just very loud and angry minority. The vast majority of
- 25:13Speaker 2: people playing in these digital worlds just normal, good neighbors.
- 25:17Speaker 2: And I say this might be surprising because this is
- 25:20Speaker 2: one of those narratives we've been told for a very
- 25:24Speaker 2: very long time that they're all just racist jerks, and
- 25:29Speaker 2: I think maybe it's advantageous at times to say that,
- 25:33Speaker 2: you know, the small, loud minority is the majority. They
- 25:39Speaker 2: do this with movies. They do this with the Star
- 25:42Speaker 2: Wars franchise. When a movie comes out and people say, no, thanks,
- 25:47Speaker 2: not so great, I don't want to watch it, or
- 25:49Speaker 2: our show like The Acolyte, which was terrible. It was
- 25:54Speaker 2: just absolutely terrible. Nothing redeeming or good about it at all.
- 25:58Speaker 2: I can't say nothing. There might have been a couple
- 25:59Speaker 2: of interesting things in there, but there's one kind of
- 26:04Speaker 2: hiding in the shadows kind of interesting thing. But that's
- 26:07Speaker 2: about it. But we just hear, you know, oh, they're
- 26:10Speaker 2: all sexist and racists, these these Star Wars fans, they're
- 26:14Speaker 2: all sexist and racist. It's doesn't make you sexist and
- 26:19Speaker 2: racist just because you don't like something. And I think
- 26:21Speaker 2: some of the they it's convenient to lump all of
- 26:24Speaker 2: these like video gamers, they get lumped together because someone
- 26:29Speaker 2: doesn't like what they have to say about something.
- 26:31Speaker 3: That's my opinion. That's what I think has happened.
- 26:32Speaker 2: And I think it's interesting to know that there's some
- 26:34Speaker 2: research that says, otherwise, what do these open minded and
- 26:39Speaker 2: welcoming average American neighbors think about pirates?
- 26:42Speaker 3: No?
- 26:43Speaker 2: Sorry, all right, how about this? This is you know,
- 26:47Speaker 2: obviously a hot button issue with AI, and this doesn't
- 26:52Speaker 2: it's not technically a data center thing, but AI uses
- 26:55Speaker 2: data centers, so it's tied into all that. But researchers
- 26:59Speaker 2: have built a new AI system called a bio coach.
- 27:03Speaker 2: It acts like a real time personal trainer through your
- 27:06Speaker 2: phone or computer camera, using advanced computer vision and three
- 27:11Speaker 2: D body mapping to look at your actual joint angles
- 27:15Speaker 2: and movements. So if you're doing push ups or squats
- 27:17Speaker 2: and you're doing them incorrectly, the machine can tell you
- 27:22Speaker 2: that you're what you're doing wrong and exactly how it's wrong,
- 27:25Speaker 2: instructing you to bend your elbows ninety degrees. It can
- 27:29Speaker 2: explain how you can tweak things so that you can
- 27:33Speaker 2: protect you from injury. The researchers plan to keep upgrading
- 27:38Speaker 2: the software so it can eventually detect subtle muzzle strains,
- 27:42Speaker 2: making at home workouts much safer for people who can't
- 27:45Speaker 2: afford sessions with a human trainer, for the people who
- 27:50Speaker 2: say that as far as jobs go, medically the doctors
- 27:56Speaker 2: don't have anything to worry about. I think this might
- 28:00Speaker 2: kind of suggests, and I'm not saying it's close, but
- 28:02Speaker 2: I might read into this a little bit that if
- 28:07Speaker 2: your phone can use software to tell you muscle strain
- 28:12Speaker 2: possibilities based on what you're doing while you're working out,
- 28:15Speaker 2: I think it's possible we could be looking at a
- 28:19Speaker 2: time where, you know, starts to at least encroach into
- 28:25Speaker 2: the medical field.
- 28:26Speaker 3: Right.
- 28:26Speaker 2: That'll do it for this Tuesday edition of the show.
- 28:29Speaker 2: Thanks to our sponsors and patrons. Thank you for listening.
- 28:32Speaker 2: I'll catch you back here tomorrow morning.
