  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.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, thirtieth day of July. I'm Wes, thanks for
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: joining me. Getting ready to close out the month and
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: start thinking. I know people are already thinking back to school.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: If you're not already doing the school supply thing, you're
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: probably way behind. We got one that they said, we'll
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: tell them what they need once school gets started. That's
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: not a little scary when you want to make sure
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: they're prepared, right. I want to make sure they got
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: everything they need. We'll tell you when they get there.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: I mean, I trust them. I guess we got to
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: do what they say. They're gonna let us know whenever
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: they get there. I guess it'll be up to individual teachers.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Another thing that's rolling on along here is this period
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: of time summer, especially with a lot of rain, and
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: we've been getting rain last week. At the beginning of
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: the week, I was down in Florida covering the Artemis
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Core stage arrival for the Artemis two Booster Rocket, so
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: I missed out, I guess on a bunch of rain
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: that came early on. That's a technical term bunch of
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: rain that came early in the week, so I missed
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: out on some of that, but certainly was very aware
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: of it as we rolled on through the latter part
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: of the week and into the weekend, and it was
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: time to do some yard work. That's the thing. April
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: showers brings more time on the mower or pushing the
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: more or you know whatever, all of everything, all the weeds,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: all the everything. That's what it means. And it's not
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: just April showers. It's May, June, July, and August showers
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: mean all of that really into September showers. So that's
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: what we're dealing with now. And I just I bring
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: that up because we have been, you know, trying to
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: stay on top of it, and you know, some things
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: kind of get a little nuts. One of the things
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: that had gotten a little out of hand for us
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: was some of our hedges needed some attention, something I
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: pride myself on staying on top of. But I have been,
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: you know, trying to stay on top of it. But
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: it's like the grass is growing so fast and all
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: those sorts of things, and at the moment, I don't
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: have a service. I used to you know, I used
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: to talk about a service on the air. That service
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: stopped doing landscaping and they shifted over to concrete work
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: in things, but not so much doing the landscaping anymore.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: So I've been doing and I don't mind doing it.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: It's just it's tough to stay on top of it.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: And I think I'm at a point in life with
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: my boys where they can start to help. They should
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: have been helping sooner. But you want them to see it.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: You want them to see that, hey, sometimes you just
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: got to do this. There will be points in life
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: where maybe you can pay someone to do this, or
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: you get in radio and you know, have a trade
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: with it, or you do it yourself because that's what
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: you're supposed to do. And it's just one of those
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: things that you know, all all of those things that
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: they need to see and get their hands a little
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: dirty too. But I was doing it over the weekend
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: and got it done, and then I had to on
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Sunday try to get a little bit finished up with
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: a It's one of those hedge trimmers on a pole
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: long version of the hedge trimmers, and I was using
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: it because really in late July and into August, and September.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: That's when we start to get the variations of wasps.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: You get all the different kinds of all the way
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: to the yellow jackets, all that stuff. You start to
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: get the wasps that we'll start building nests in the
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: hedges or in the rose bushes, any place that they
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: could find a spot to build a nest, they're going
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: to do it, and they're going to be a problem.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: So when you're trying to trim your hedges, you are
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: having to deal with that, watch out for them, all
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: those things. Anyway, I had the hedge trimmers on a pole.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: They're a little less easy to they're harder to control,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: very awkward, less arm friendly, but you kind of have
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: to do it if you're worried and concerned. And there
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: was an area where I was a little concerned about
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: some yellow jackets, and thankfully having the extended pole was
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: helpful because I was able to have plenty of time
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: to get away from them. I was, not, however, able
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: to get away from a wasp that had started to
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: build a nest up near the front door. Jill had
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: used a towel to wipe the dog's paws after taking
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: him for a walk, and had draped it over just
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: over the handrail there, and it had been there for
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: a little while, and a wasp had said, hey, this
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: is a good spot to build a nest. So she
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: warned me, Hey, there's a wasp under there. Can you
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: deal with that? So I pulled the towel away, and
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: I was taking care of the little nest he was
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: starting to build, and just to reposition the towel in
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: my hand, and I guess in the second gripping of
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: the towel, I happen to grab exactly where the wasp was.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Got it me a good sting. Got a big puffy
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: hand still this morning, Just a big old puffy hand,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: itchy puffy hand. That's the other fun part of it.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: Anyway.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: I say that to remind you as you're continuing on
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: into this season of dealing with your yard maintenance, if
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: you're doing it yourself, just be aware they're out there.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: They're everywhere, all right. I want to talk about this.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I guess Elon Musk has shared something on X about
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Kamala Harris and it's a little bit of a throwback
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: to something from the past, and it's worth just going
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: back and revisiting it. Kind of one of those classic
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: moments from back in the day, early on in the
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: vice presidency, and I guess it was probably maybe even
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: in the second year. I don't know, first year, second year,
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: maybe year and a half in. She was speaking at
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: an event and she introduced herself and this is what
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Elon Musk shared. Instead, imagine four years of this as president,
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: we'd be dealing with it. This is her introduction.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: Good afternoon. I want to love them, these leaders for
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: coming in to have this very important discussion about some
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: of the most pressing issues of our time. I am
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: Kamala Harris, my punounser she of her, I'm a woman
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: sitting at the table wearing a blue suit, and so.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: There we go. That's Kamala Harris at this particular event.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: So this is one of those things that some on
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: the far ride are going, oh, can you believe that
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: she did that? Yes, I can. Some on the far
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: left saying, what's the big deal? Why are you picking
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: on her? And I think this is where I think
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: we need to try to find some sort of balance
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: in all of this. And this wasn't the only time
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: she did it, by the way, she was at another
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: or something on CNN and where she did it as well,
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: probably other times that we don't even know about. And
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: it's just one of those things that there's a few
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: layers to this, okay. And I want to do this
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: justice because I don't in any way want to disrespect anyone. Okay,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: That's not my intention with any of my comments. I've
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: told you many times on this show. I'm a strong
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: advocate for ubu. You live your life. Please don't ask
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: me to participate in things that I don't want to
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: participate in. That's where I am with all of it, Okay,
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: And I just want to be really clear on that you.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: I am all for people living their life. We went
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: through the the final season of ted Lasso where there
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: were some topics that got covered and I really like
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: to show ted Lasso, but there were a couple of
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: things in the last season. You know, this uniform team
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: deleting photos of women, you know that had sent them
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: in the past text messages to be respectful to women,
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: like this entire British soccer slash football team doing that
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: because the captain told him they needed to do it,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: or and in one case it was a guy who
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: was deleting pictures of guys and then that guy coming out,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: and then the team saying, hey, we don't care, it's fine,
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: we don't have a problem with it, and then Ted
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: explaining no, no, no, we do care. We care that you
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: are and we want to make sure that you know
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: that we care. In this uniform gathering of players supporting him.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: You know, nice moment. That's not life, and I know
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: that they want that to be life. Those two scenarios,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: but it's been unrealistic. Maybe the second one probably more realistic,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: But the reality is, you don't have to delete all
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: the pictures on your phone because the captain on your
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: soccer team told you to. I can't imagine that ever
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: being a real thing, and why they needed to address
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: that on the show. And the other part of it is,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: I do believe it's okay just to say I don't care,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: it's fine, you live your life. I think that that
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: should be perfectly fine. I understand there's some scenarios where
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: you want to tell someone that's close to you and
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: that you truly care about. If it's your child, if
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: it's a close friend, you want to let them know, yeah, absolutely,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: I'm here for you whatever you need. But for some
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: it starts to get layered when you start getting into
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: this idea of is it something that you find morally okay.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: I'm raising my children to know that there's going to
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: be kids at school that you're going to encounter, and
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: your job is to just be their friend. That's it,
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: that's all you need to do. I want you to
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: be their friend. I want you to support them. I
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: want you to have their back. But at no point
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: or can you be required or gas lit into telling
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: them that no, no, no, but I support everything that you do.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: You don't have to do that if they're doing something
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: that you don't think is morally okay, you're allowed to
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: just be there friend. But society tells us that that's
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: not enough. We have to do things like what the
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: vice president decided to do at this particular event. So
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: at best, it's hey, I'm being overly sensitive in this
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: particular area. At worst, it's a waste of time. And
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: I don't want to be insensitive to people who the
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: pronoun issue is important to them, Because there obviously are
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: people that pronouns are important to them, they're not important
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: in this case. I know that she's trying to lead
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: by example, and she's trying to say hey, this is
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: and keep in mind, this is you know, two and
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: a half years ago, something like that, over two years
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: ago when this happens. So this isn't recent, this isn't
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: something that has just happened. She's not doing it as
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: a presidential candidate, although I believe if they think that
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: they can get some votes from it, they'll do it,
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: which is what I think it was. I think this
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: was pandering. This was Pride Month, you know, like they
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: say business is going to come Pride Month. It's rainbow
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: flags everywhere, logos, and then July first, it's like, okay,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: let's get back to all the other customers. And that
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: really is what it feels like. Some businesses do it
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: right by, you know, the gay community, the LGBTQ plus community,
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: but some it's clearly just pandering. This is clearly just pandering.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: But when I say it's a waste of time, this
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: isn't something that affects most people. Most people, especially now,
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: are dealing with much more serious things. See, this was
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: early on two years ago. They were just getting started
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: ruining our economy. They were just getting things moving on,
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: creating record inflation, and people say, oh inflations, it's gone down.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: The percentage of inflation, the percentage of increase has gone down.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: It doesn't mean that the prices have gone back down.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: The prices don't go back down. Let me give you
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: a great example, And I think it's hilarious that our
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: current president was using this as of a campaign thing
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: for himself. When he was talking about shrinkflation. He was
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: trying to make a case that companies were being greedy
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: and oh my gosh, can you believe these greedy companies
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: are raising their prices. Yes, because you created a situation
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: where they needed to. You start creating issues with the
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: fuel supply, you start creating issues with shipping, you start
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: creating issues with products being where they need to be.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: And yes, they have to raise the prices. They're paying
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: more for logistics, so they're asking the customers to pay
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: more so that the product can be delivered and purchased.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: That's the way it works. And if you don't know that,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: maybe you shouldn't be in charge. But our current president
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: talked about shrinkflation like it was can you believe these
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: companies are doing this? Yes, they've been doing it. They've
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: always done it. This isn't new, it's just happening at
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: a faster rate right now, because this is what we're
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: all dealing with in this economy, this is what we're
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: looking at a regular basis. I'm going to call out
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: one particular company and i'd just like to point it
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: out to you if you've been I got a message
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: from my older brother and said, by the way, Lays
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: potato chips or two dollars a bag at Walmart if
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: you need some laced potato chips for anything, just giving
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: your heads up. They've been on sale for about a month.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: I think this started back around the beginning of July,
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: and I thought, well, it's good for Independence Day, grab
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: a couple of bags for a party we're going to.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: And I realized they are tiny bags of chips. They're tiny.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: They're like half the size of a bag of chips.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: I think, at least recently. And I want to be honest,
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: I don't buy a lot of laze potato chips. I
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: got nothing. I liked lace potato chips. They're great more
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: likely to buy Doritos than anything else from Lays. I
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: just buy other stuff. I buy you know store brands,
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: or you know the Aldie brands, the Clancys, that's more
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: me is for price, because I'm like, well, I'm already
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: paying two dollars for bag of chips, so but that's
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: the deal. That's the shrinkflation in action. The chips are smaller,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: the bag is smaller. They're selling to you for two dollars,
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: and then they're eventually going to say, Okay, the sale ended.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Now it's going to go back to regular price. And
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: then suddenly you're used to the smaller bag of chips.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: That's the way it works. I grew up with parents
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: that worked in merchandising and sales for companies like Nabisco
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: and Keebler and Kimberly Clark. It's just the way it works.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: This is the way that business has been done for
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: a long time. You get your bag of Oreos, the
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: bag of Oreos is a little smaller, They charge you
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: a little bit less. The old Oreos disappear from the
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: shelf and the only thing left is the smaller Oreos
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: and you're like, well, at least it's still a lower price.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: And then they go back up, Hey, sale's over. We're
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: going back to the regular price on the Oreos. That's
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: what happens. That's what people are dealing with the average
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: person in America is dealing with that. They're not dealing
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: with gender pronouns. And I don't want to be insensitive
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: to people that are dealing with gender pronouns, but this
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: is not and that's why Elon Musk has shared this.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: It's just the reality of where we are right now.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: People have to understand. Another thing I guess Elon shared
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: is there was some sort of a parody video that
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: was made that used AI to recreate the voice of
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Kamala Harris and saying things that she didn't say, and
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: people are really upset about it. Can you believe that
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: the likely Democratic presidential nominee has this video that's being
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: shared by people like Elon Musk and they're doing, you know,
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: these parody videos of her. That's unfortunate. That's a bad
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: use of AI. It shouldn't be used this way. But
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: the reality is Kamala Harris is campaigning on Project twenty
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: twenty five saying that Trump is going to use Project
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty five to destroy America and all these things,
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: when in reality, Trump has repeatedly said Project twenty twenty
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: five isn't me. I don't even know what that is.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: I'm not using it. Somebody else made it up, somebody
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: that at one time was associated with Trump but currently isn't.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: He's like, no, I have no intentions of using a project.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: In fact, there's things in Project twenty twenty five I'm
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: going to do very different things for But the left
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: is still saying it. So which is first? Sorry, which
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: is worse? And first is we had the Project twenty
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: twenty five and then the parody videos of Kamala Harris,
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: So the other thing happened first. But which is worse?
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: To have a parody video made by someone not associated
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: with either campaign or to have someone active with the
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: campaign actively lying about what the intentions are of the
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: presidential nominee. The nominee. Now we're saying Harris is the
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: likely nominee and is, but the nominee is Donald Trump
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: for the Republicans. So to continue to lie about what
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: his intentions are concerning this Project twenty twenty five, that
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: seems a little worse, doesn't it. Neither one is good.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: I'm not an advocate for these parody videos. I think
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: it's unfortunate, and I think we're going to see a
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: really We're gonna have a really difficult time at some
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: point distinguishing between what really was said and what wasn't.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: But when you have people that are already telling you
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: that something was said by a presidential candidate that wasn't said,
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: does it. Do we need the parody videos?
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Do we need those?
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know that we do. I don't know that
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: that's important. When you got TV shows like The Boys
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: that are telling you here's here's our take on January sixth,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: and people they buy into those shows. They buy into
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: the Daily Show as a real source of news. They
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: buy into Twitter and Instagram. Well not so much Instagram,
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: I guess, but Twitter and Facebook can snapchat and that's
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: their source of news. They buy into all that. They
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: buy into these TV shows so that they can say, man,
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: this is how it. I mean, I know people that
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: And I ended up watching the latest season of The Boys.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: I had not started it when the assassination attempt happened.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: Made me more curious what people were talking about. I
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: guess maybe i'd seen one episode when that happened, and
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: they were trying to say, well, this is what happened
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: with the assassination attempt. It was all staged, just like
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: on the show. As if this giant conspiracy could just
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: be cooked up really quickly and suddenly you can have
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: you know, one hundred people involved, all part of this
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: giant cover up, and they're all going to keep quiet
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: and nobody's going to leak. It doesn't seem likely. You
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: have a hard time with four people keeping a secret.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: Two people keeping a secret can be difficult. Yeah, So
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: I think we should be concerned about the AI parodies,
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: the any of the AI videos that aren't labeled as parodies.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: But even then I think they can become dangerous. But
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: the main thing is that's another aspect of wasting our time.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: We got important things to do. We got to get
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: our economy straight. We got to get inflation fully leveled out,
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: and then wages of course have to end up trying
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: to match where we are as far as inflation goes,
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: it's a never ending cycle. One goes up, the other
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: needs to go up, the other needs to go up,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: and it's just back and forth. But there was no
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: reason to push prices of goods up as we're trying
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: to recover from a pandemic. There's no reason to shut
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: down our fuel production within the US right after a
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: pandemic causing us to fund, you know, buying fuel from Russia,
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: helping to fund their invasion of Ukraine, and then going, oh,
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: we're not going to buy it from them anymore. Does
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: that mean we're going to start more production here? No? No, no, no,
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: We'll buy it from somewhere else. But you know, maybe
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: we shouldn't have done that. So it is possible to
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: get the production here on US soil moving along again,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: but it's gonna take a lot of action. November Today

• 21:12
  Speaker 2: this is a major city attraction that happens right here

• 22:08
  Speaker 2: Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's time for. It's

• 22:22
  Speaker 2: away for you, and while they're there, you can always
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: ask them questions about some of the maybe cosmetic changes
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: you'd like to make to your garage door. Maybe your
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: curb appeal isn't quite what you want it to be
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: and you need some repair work done to the outside door.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Maybe you need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: it's making a noise when your garage door opens and closes.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's some sort of installation issue that you've got.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: With colder or warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation where
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: you'd like to add a screen door to your garage
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: door system that you can put down and you can
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: use your garage as a sort of outdoor but indoor,
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: you know, if you like to work on your own
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: cars in there, or maybe you just want a little
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: man cavid. You'd like to be able to open the
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in They
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: can do that for you as well, and again they
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: of having your car trapped inside your garage and your
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help,
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: and they do those as well. Seven oh six thy

• 23:34
  Speaker 2: Carol Morning Show. Right after the break, All right, let's
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: talk a little bit about the Olympics. You know, the
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: story for a while has been that the Olympic athletes
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: are just all, you know, having a good time, like
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: it's just a wild spring break party going on. You
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: know what I'm talking about. You've heard these stories, right
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: that they're just having way too much fun in their downtime.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: You follow me. Well, apparently there are a bunch of
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: rules that are intended to keep athletes safe while they
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: are in the Olympic village. Some of the rules you
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: may not know about. Athletes must reside with their country's team,
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: although they do not have to actually stay in the
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Olympic village, but if they're there, they have to stay
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: with their team. Family and friends are not allowed in
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: the Olympic Village unless it's a basically infant that is
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: being nursed. So nursing infants are allowed to be in
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: the Olympic Village, and anybody who's a miner must room
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: with another minor. Athletes must abide by Olympic Village quiet
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: hours from ten pm to seven am. Alcohol not allowed
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: in the Olympic Village. Athletes are allowed to mingle with
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: athletes from other countries in the Olympic Village. See that's
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: what I'm talking about. No alcohol though, but they're allowed
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: to mingle, and they are allowed to mingle. You follow me,
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: They're allowed to do that. But I guess you're you know,
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: I guess you can have somebody over, you just can't
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: fully reside in the same place together. So there's that
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: some of those things that you've heard some clarifications on that.
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: I thought that was interesting when I saw the breakdown
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: on those. Do you have a brilliant idea that you
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: just know is gonna make you a lot of money
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: one day? Well, that's true of a lot of people,
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: whether it's a novel, new product. Business. Stock Pick survey
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: done found that one in three Americans think they have
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: an idea that will make them rich and if it
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: doesn't pan out. Twenty percent of respondents said that they
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: have a feeling they will hit it big with Mega
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: millions or powerball. So a lot of people think they've
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: got the big idea and a lot of people are
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: bad at math statistics specifically. So have you heard of
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: this tradition? As we're going through the summertime wedding season,
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: and I guess social media has brought this to people's attention.
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: I guess I've heard of this before, but I had
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: forgotten about it. But there's a tradition of brides bearing
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: an uncooked sausage the night before their wedding, hiding a sausage,
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: they bury it underground and that's it, and it's supposedly
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: to ward off bad weather on your wedding day. So
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: I guess this somebody shared someone doing it. It led
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: to the giggling and the hydro sausage jokes, and I
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: guess brought it to people's attention that this is actually
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: a thing that people do. All right, Twinkies are getting
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: ready to launch a new mystery flavor, and if you
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: guess what the mystery flavor is you could win a
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: year's supply of Twinkies. Ostis is teamed up with content
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: creator Taylor cow Mus, better known as Doude Dad on
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: YouTube and socials, and they're releasing a mystery flavor Twinkie.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: You can follow Dude Dad and Hostess on Instagram for
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: clues about the mystery flavor, and can start sharing your
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: guesses starting on August first. On the Hostess Instagram page
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: enter their sweepstakes for a chance to win. The mystery
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Twinkies are only available at Walmart through October twenty twenty four.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna try to mystery Twinkie. I don't know the
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: last time I had an actual regular flavored twinkie. You know,
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: the twinkie flavored Twinkie spent a long time for me
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: on that.
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Whenever you board a flight, you get on a plane
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: for your flight and the flight attendant says hello to you,
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: probably just seems like they're being polite. They're just greeting
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: you as you come on. It seems like an element
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: of good customer service. But actually, according to some flight attendants,
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: it's a little more than that. Flight attendants like to
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: look at you as you're boarding the plane, get an
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: idea of whether you might be unhealthy. Perhaps you had
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: too many drinks at the bar before boarding the plane.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: Maybe they can look at you and get an idea
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: of a guess based on maybe intoxication or whatever that
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: maybe you might be a problem. They can look at
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: all those things they're trying to gauge as you're walking
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: in and they just say, you know, you should also
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: say hello back and let them know that you're good
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: to go and you're not going to be a problem
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: on the flight. And they say they're also looking at
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: you to know if you might be someone they can
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: count on should there be an emergency during the flight.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: That's nice. You want to look reputable, helpful, someone who
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: is there to be useful during the flight. They want
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: to assess all of those things as you board the flight,
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: so FYI, it's not just about them being polite. They're
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: assessing you. They're judging you basically as you get on
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: the flight, but maybe in a good way. That'll do
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: it for this Tuesday edition of the show. Thanks to
• 29:03
