Strange and Bizarre News with McDreamy or McSteamy · The Wes Carroll Morning Show

0:01
Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start
0:06
Speaker 1: your day, and you're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show.
0:11
Speaker 2: Friday morning. It is the tenth day of July. I'm Wes,
0:16
Speaker 2: thanks for joining me. As expected, the scramble to replace
0:24
Speaker 2: Graham Platner on the main ballot is on. We talked
0:30
Speaker 2: about the fact that they would have you know, a
0:33
Speaker 2: few days, a couple of weeks, I guess. But now
0:36
Speaker 2: it's down to a few days to figure out who
0:39
Speaker 2: they can replace Graham Platner with. And the scramble is on.
0:43
Speaker 2: And I told you weeks ago that this was an
0:47
Speaker 2: option for Democrats and that not only would it end
0:52
Speaker 2: up being the strategy and it would end up being
0:55
Speaker 2: the ultimate course of action for all of this, it
1:00
Speaker 2: would also be another opportunity to bypass the will of
1:05
Speaker 2: the voters, the voters of Maine who have chosen Graham Platner,
1:11
Speaker 2: probably with some buyer's remorse. But instead of any opportunity
1:16
Speaker 2: to pick their next Senate candidate, they will just Democrats
1:23
Speaker 2: will decide whoever it's going to be. And in a
1:25
Speaker 2: state like Maine, you go, well, who do we get
1:29
Speaker 2: to replace Graham Plattner? That's going to have some of
1:31
Speaker 2: that pizazz and that zip. Well. A couple of the
1:35
Speaker 2: names that have been floated around. First of all, Graham
1:39
Speaker 2: Platner's wife, her name has come up. Let me tell
1:43
Speaker 2: you right now, if the pick was Graham Platner's wife,
1:51
Speaker 2: just understand that's I know, the things that he's been
1:56
Speaker 2: accused of. She has not been accused of. But just
2:00
Speaker 2: consider the fact that she's married to the guy that
2:05
Speaker 2: all of these things have been accusations have been levied against.
2:09
Speaker 2: She married a guy that had a Nazi tattoo on
2:12
Speaker 2: his chest, she married a guy that's been accused of
2:16
Speaker 2: all these horrible things. Just know that there is that now.
2:20
Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong. We've been through this before. We
2:24
Speaker 2: went through a Hillary Clinton candidacy for president, as women
2:29
Speaker 2: had declared that, you know, they wanted a candidate that
2:35
Speaker 2: was going to be for women and be a woman,
2:38
Speaker 2: and it was a woman who said horrible things about women,
2:42
Speaker 2: who accused her husband of horrible things. So who wouldn't
2:54
Speaker 2: be crazy, wouldn't be crazy to go, hey, we have
2:58
Speaker 2: you know somebody here who's an enabler. Wouldn't be nuts.
3:04
Speaker 2: I don't think that's who you know, it's certainly not
3:07
Speaker 2: a great option. I also saw the other name that
3:10
Speaker 2: came up that is humorous to me, And again the
3:19
Speaker 2: fact that this is where things are going is quite comical.
3:24
Speaker 2: Is that Patrick Dempsey's name? The actor? I don't know
3:30
Speaker 2: if he's McDreamy mc stemy. He's one of those two.
3:35
Speaker 2: I don't know which one is he. Let's see he is.
3:41
Speaker 2: Oh gosh, I don't remember which one he is. He's
3:44
Speaker 2: one of the two. One of them passed away. Was
3:47
Speaker 2: that McDreamy or mx steam. See now I've got to
3:50
Speaker 2: find out. But the other one, I think he's McDreamy
3:55
Speaker 2: and the other guy was mixed Steamy mc steam I
3:57
Speaker 2: think is the one that died. But don't I don't
3:59
Speaker 2: want to kill off the wrong person. But the point
4:03
Speaker 2: is his name came up. Now why would his name
4:06
Speaker 2: came up? Because you know he's a he's a big
4:09
Speaker 2: time Hollywood actor. He was on a TV show where
4:13
Speaker 2: he played a doctor, so that means that should be
4:17
Speaker 2: the guy. Now he's already turned it down. He says,
4:21
Speaker 2: you know, he's given it some thought when he thought
4:23
Speaker 2: about maybe he could run for senate and then said no,
4:30
Speaker 2: it's not going to be the case. He feels like
4:36
Speaker 2: this is This is the quote. He says. Over the
4:38
Speaker 2: past several days, I've been asked the question more than once,
4:40
Speaker 2: would you ever run for United States Senate? It's flattering,
4:44
Speaker 2: and I don't take it lightly. I love my home
4:46
Speaker 2: state of Maine. I care deeply about the people who
4:48
Speaker 2: live there, and like so many Americans, I'm concerned about
4:52
Speaker 2: the direction our country is headed. And he says he's
4:55
Speaker 2: given it real thought, not because I was looking for
4:57
Speaker 2: a new career, but because I asked myself an honest question,
5:00
Speaker 2: and could I make a meaningful difference. I want someone
5:02
Speaker 2: who leads with empathy, someone who listens before speaking, who
5:06
Speaker 2: has the courage to work with people they disagree with,
5:09
Speaker 2: and who understands that public office isn't about power, It's
5:12
Speaker 2: about service. Which is an interesting take on all of this,
5:16
Speaker 2: considering everything about the Democrats supporting Graham, Platnir showed that
5:23
Speaker 2: this was about power. Probably a nice guy. I don't
5:27
Speaker 2: know that. I'm not saying anything about him. Oh, and
5:33
Speaker 2: he says, most of all, I want integrity. That may
5:35
Speaker 2: sound idealistic today, but it shouldn't so. Twin Cities Main
5:41
Speaker 2: I guess is his hometown. So you know, if this
5:47
Speaker 2: is just somebody they want to throw in the mix
5:49
Speaker 2: because they think, well, maybe he would grab some votes
5:51
Speaker 2: just off name recognition alone, and that would be enough
5:56
Speaker 2: and enough reason to say let's draft him and this,
6:01
Speaker 2: But they probably are very excited about the opportunity at
6:03
Speaker 2: trying to figure out, like picking the candidate. Again, the
6:08
Speaker 2: same party that said Donald Trump was going to bring
6:10
Speaker 2: about the end of democracy and they're once again going
6:14
Speaker 2: to be in a situation where they get to try
6:15
Speaker 2: to pick a candidate they already supported a really bad one,
6:19
Speaker 2: so that maybe they'll pick another really bad one. Who knows,
6:23
Speaker 2: But yeah, McDreamy McSteamy, well, whatever he is, I don't
6:27
Speaker 2: know's that seems to be one of the people that
6:32
Speaker 2: at least there was some attempt to draft him into
6:35
Speaker 2: this situation. Uh, it is Friday, and I don't want
6:39
Speaker 2: to spend all the show going on about Graham platinir
6:42
Speaker 2: because Friday, there is a certain obligation here that I'm
6:45
Speaker 2: going to give you some sort of positive news and
6:50
Speaker 2: then I'm going to give you some strange and bizarre
6:54
Speaker 2: news from around the world. And I'm gonna go ahead
6:59
Speaker 2: and start with this story. So think about this. You're
7:02
Speaker 2: visiting disney Land for the first time, you're a kid,
7:06
Speaker 2: and you're told when you enter the park, you are
7:08
Speaker 2: the one billionth person to visit Disneyland. And that happened
7:15
Speaker 2: to an eight year old Andreas robb Lace of Arizona
7:20
Speaker 2: last week. His parents took him to the Anaheim Park
7:23
Speaker 2: for his birthday, and he was told he was the
7:24
Speaker 2: one billionth visitor since the park opened in nineteen fifty five.
7:28
Speaker 2: Disneyland marking the occasion with a special ceremony featuring Mickey
7:32
Speaker 2: Mouse and other Disney characters and a sign declaring the
7:35
Speaker 2: park's population had reached one billion, and a VIP tour
7:40
Speaker 2: for the family. That's a great story, and I try
7:44
Speaker 2: not to have any snark in these stories, but you
7:46
Speaker 2: got to think, as people are flooding in, how do
7:48
Speaker 2: they know which one was the one billionth? They picked
7:51
Speaker 2: somebody and probably a kid, and went. But I'm glad
7:54
Speaker 2: that they picked a kid. That's what they should do.
7:57
Speaker 2: You know, there's a growing number of people who say
7:58
Speaker 2: adults shouldn't be going to theme parks anyway. I don't
8:01
Speaker 2: agree with that, but it's good that they picked a kid,
8:04
Speaker 2: and they didn't just grab some you know, forty five
8:08
Speaker 2: year old guy and go you're the one. But you know,
8:11
Speaker 2: I mean, it still could have been nice. But it's
8:12
Speaker 2: really nice that it's a kid. How about this story?
8:15
Speaker 2: California wedding took an unforgettable turn when the bride's parents
8:18
Speaker 2: surprised the couple with a recording from the bride's childhood.
8:23
Speaker 2: Jordan Rosenberg and Max Kreamer were celebrating their reception when
8:27
Speaker 2: audio a four year old Jordan describing her future wedding
8:30
Speaker 2: was played for the guests. In the decades old recording,
8:34
Speaker 2: young Jordan talked about wedding details, named friends who would attend,
8:37
Speaker 2: and then answered a question about who her future husband
8:40
Speaker 2: would be. Her answer was Max. The groom was stunned
8:46
Speaker 2: and the erupted in disbelieve. Jordan later said that she
8:49
Speaker 2: was just as surprised as everyone else. The emotional moment
8:52
Speaker 2: went viral and drew millions of you, sparking plenty of
8:56
Speaker 2: talk about fate and coincidence. If you haven't seen this video,
9:01
Speaker 2: it is great and seeing the look on Maxi's face
9:06
Speaker 2: is absolutely priceless. The girl Jordan also the look on
9:11
Speaker 2: her face and it's just the guy saying Max is
9:15
Speaker 2: saying no way, over and over and over again. What
9:18
Speaker 2: a very cool story. I dig it all right. Let's
9:21
Speaker 2: get to strange and bizarre news from around the world.
9:24
Speaker 2: It's always fun when we get stories about animals, and
9:29
Speaker 2: I especially like when we get bear stories. Those are fun. Well.
9:33
Speaker 2: A hotel in Tibet is reinforcing security to keep unpaying
9:37
Speaker 2: guests out after a brown bear walked in and entered
9:41
Speaker 2: a locked guest room. The security camera video from a
9:45
Speaker 2: hotel showing that the bear wandered into a hallway and
9:53
Speaker 2: then forced its way through the door of an occupied room. Inside,
9:57
Speaker 2: there were two guests who later said they found themselves
10:00
Speaker 2: face to face with the animal for several seconds. Fortunately,
10:04
Speaker 2: the bear left the room on its own without hurting anyone.
10:07
Speaker 2: The hotel owner then used a flashlight and other tools
10:10
Speaker 2: to scare the bear out of the building. The damage
10:13
Speaker 2: door has been repaired. Hotel management says it's adding extra
10:17
Speaker 2: security measures to prevent bears from getting inside again. Who
10:21
Speaker 2: knew all you really needed was a flashlight and a
10:24
Speaker 2: couple of tools. I mean, what about bear spray and
10:28
Speaker 2: guns and all these things that they say you should
10:30
Speaker 2: take just take a flashlight and just kind, you know,
10:33
Speaker 2: scare it away. That's all you gotta do. Police in
10:36
Speaker 2: Kansas are trying to identify a woman who has turned
10:40
Speaker 2: a mall's landscaping into her own personal florist. Surveillance video
10:45
Speaker 2: shows a woman who allegedly pulled decorative plants out of
10:49
Speaker 2: planners outside a Shawnee antique mall and then drove away
10:53
Speaker 2: with them. Employees say that it's not the first time.
10:57
Speaker 2: A year ago, flower planners repeatedly disappeared even after staff
11:01
Speaker 2: secured them with zip ties. This year, the planters were
11:05
Speaker 2: chained to the building, but the suspect reportedly left the
11:08
Speaker 2: containers behind dug out the plants by hand. One employee
11:12
Speaker 2: says that he bought the flowers himself months after helping
11:17
Speaker 2: care for them, and watered fertilized them so that they
11:23
Speaker 2: would keep the store front looking nice for customers. While
11:25
Speaker 2: landscaping theft may sound unusual, businesses and homeowners across the
11:29
Speaker 2: country have reported stolen flowers, shrubs, decorative plants. It's happened
11:34
Speaker 2: here locally in the Columbus area in the Chattahoochee Valley,
11:39
Speaker 2: and staff says that the loss is just about replacing
11:42
Speaker 2: the flowers. It's about the time and effort invested in
11:45
Speaker 2: growing them. Shawnee Police are investigating and working to identify
11:50
Speaker 2: the woman captured in the surveillance video. It's pretty wild
11:55
Speaker 2: stuff and there've been a number of reports about it
11:59
Speaker 2: happening here locally, So knock it off. I mean, really,
12:05
Speaker 2: wherever you're doing this, just knock it off. Australian officials
12:09
Speaker 2: say mysterious metal balls that washed up on a Queensland
12:12
Speaker 2: beach over the weekend were likely pieces of space debris.
12:17
Speaker 2: The objects sparked concern when they were discovered on Forest
12:21
Speaker 2: Beach near the town of Ingham. Been there, It's a
12:25
Speaker 2: nice town. Mainly driven through there, but I've definitely been
12:28
Speaker 2: to Ingham and I had a picnic in Ingham once.
12:32
Speaker 2: Emergency crews treated them as potentially hazardous, setting up a
12:36
Speaker 2: safety perimeter while firefighters and hazmat suits investigated. Australia's Space
12:41
Speaker 2: Agency later identified the spheres as pressure vessels from a
12:47
Speaker 2: space launch vehicle, commonly known as spaceballs spaceballs. The Australia
12:54
Speaker 2: Adventure officials believe they came from a foreign rocket that
12:59
Speaker 2: recently re entered Earth's atmosphere. Space debris expert Alice Gorman
13:04
Speaker 2: says that these metal balls, designed to hold highly pressurized
13:08
Speaker 2: rocket fuel, are often sturdy enough to survive the intense
13:13
Speaker 2: heat of reentry. She says the spheres likely landed in
13:16
Speaker 2: the ocean before washing ashore. Authorities working with international partners
13:21
Speaker 2: to determine which rocket that they came from. Again, this
13:27
Speaker 2: falls under the category of basically where most space debris.
13:35
Speaker 2: Most things that come down land and water plant. It's
13:38
Speaker 2: mostly water, so if they did land in the water
13:41
Speaker 2: and wash up on the beach, that makes sense. Talk
13:44
Speaker 2: about bad timing. Police say that a Maryland man called
13:46
Speaker 2: a report that his car had been stolen. What he
13:48
Speaker 2: didn't mention is that his car was stolen while he
13:51
Speaker 2: was burglarizing a store across the street. Officers were investigating
13:56
Speaker 2: the stolen vehicle report when they received another report of
13:59
Speaker 2: a burglary at a near by Verizon store. According to police,
14:02
Speaker 2: the two incidents quickly appeared connected. Officers noticed blood on
14:07
Speaker 2: the Verizon store's broken window and also spotted blood on
14:10
Speaker 2: the glasses of the man who had reported his vehicle stolen.
14:15
Speaker 2: Police later released video showing body camera footage of the
14:19
Speaker 2: man denying he had been in the Verizon store, alongside
14:23
Speaker 2: surveillance video that investigators say shows him breaking into the business.
14:26
Speaker 2: As officers arrested him, one can be heard saying, that's
14:30
Speaker 2: some karma right there, dude. The dude is in there.
14:35
Speaker 2: It's a quote. Police identified the suspect as twenty nine
14:38
Speaker 2: year old Jalen Goddard. He faces charges that include burglary, theft,
14:43
Speaker 2: and destruction of property. As for the stolen vehicle, police
14:46
Speaker 2: have not released any information about the person responsible for
14:52
Speaker 2: taking it. This is one of those things where you
14:54
Speaker 2: know you, I mean, I know you want to call
14:58
Speaker 2: the cops because your car got stolen, but I think
15:04
Speaker 2: just based on where you were when it was stolen,
15:08
Speaker 2: you may want to. You may want to just try
15:11
Speaker 2: to avoid calling the cops on that, but I guess
15:13
Speaker 2: you got to. You want to try to get your
15:15
Speaker 2: car back. Right. Get ready for Dragon Con forty. It's

18:55
Speaker 2: garage door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe maybe you have
19:01

19:17
Speaker 2: about some of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to
19:19
Speaker 2: make to your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't
19:23
Speaker 2: quite what you want it to be, and you need
19:25
Speaker 2: some repair work done to the outside door. Maybe you
19:28
Speaker 2: need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making
19:32
Speaker 2: a noise when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe
19:35
Speaker 2: it's some sort of insulation issue that you've got with
19:38
Speaker 2: colder or warmer weather, Sometimes that stuff gets in and
19:41
Speaker 2: it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd
19:45

19:50
Speaker 2: your garage space as a sort of outdoor but indoor,
19:54

Speaker 2: West Carol Morning Show right after the break. How much
20:36
Speaker 2: time do you spend in the bathroom? Don't know? This
20:42
Speaker 2: is just you know, for the purposes of the story.
20:44
Speaker 2: You don't have to tell me personally. According to a
20:46
Speaker 2: new survey, we collectively spend a lot of time in there.
20:51
Speaker 2: Average adult estimated to spend four hundred and sixteen days
20:54
Speaker 2: of their life in the bathroom. Men about three hundred
20:57
Speaker 2: and seventy three days in total. That's a twenty three
21:00
Speaker 2: minutes a day, while women spend about four hundred and
21:04
Speaker 2: fifty six days around twenty nine minutes per day. Time
21:09
Speaker 2: isn't just spent showering or getting ready. Many people use
21:11
Speaker 2: the bathroom as a place to read, check emails, relax,
21:14
Speaker 2: get some peace and quiet, do some scrolling, some doom scrolling. Yeah,
21:22
Speaker 2: you know, time in the bathroom. Survey also revealed that
21:26
Speaker 2: sharing a bathroom can be a source of frustration, with
21:28
Speaker 2: common complaints including empty toilet roll holders, hair in the drain,
21:33
Speaker 2: family members taking too long in there. So think about
21:40
Speaker 2: it when you it's one thing when you go and
21:41
Speaker 2: I go, have this little piece in quiet. Right, Maybe
21:45
Speaker 2: you got a cat or a dog sticking there, you know,
21:48
Speaker 2: paw under the door or whatever. But otherwise, little piece
21:53
Speaker 2: and quiet in there, you know, just a little you
21:56
Speaker 2: get a closed door, just that little privacy. And you
22:00
Speaker 2: look at the numbers and you go, my gosh, three
22:03
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy three or four hundred and fifty six
22:05
Speaker 2: days in the bathroom. Then you go, I'm spending too
22:08
Speaker 2: much time in there. Ever, Notice how some people have
22:13
Speaker 2: a natural ability to go to a party and instantly
22:16
Speaker 2: make friends when new research suggests that their secret when
22:20
Speaker 2: it involves their likability, may not be charmer confidence. It
22:23
Speaker 2: may be something much simpler, and that's expecting people to
22:27
Speaker 2: like you. The new study suggests that being likable at
22:30
Speaker 2: parties is more about mindset. People who entered social situations
22:34
Speaker 2: expecting others to like them were in fact more likely
22:38
Speaker 2: to be liked. Researchers call it the acceptance prophecy. When
22:42
Speaker 2: people expect a positive reaction, they tend to act warmer, friendlier,
22:46
Speaker 2: and more open, which encourages others to respond positively. On
22:50
Speaker 2: the flip side, those who expect rejection often appear more
22:53
Speaker 2: closed off, making rejection more likely. It's a mindset thing, right,
22:59
Speaker 2: It's one of those things where you kind of go
23:02
Speaker 2: into it expecting it and then it's a bit of
23:05
Speaker 2: the self fulfilling prophecy, I think, and also the other
23:08
Speaker 2: way where you go in expecting bad things and then
23:10
Speaker 2: bad things happen. Two iconic American brands with seemingly nothing
23:16
Speaker 2: in common now have something in common, and it's bringing
23:19
Speaker 2: them together in court. Seven eleven suing Nike over a
23:24
Speaker 2: new Airmax ninety five sneaker, claiming the shoe's green, orange,
23:29
Speaker 2: and red color scheme is too closely resembling the Convenience
23:33
Speaker 2: Change trademark branding. According to the lawsuit, some online sellers
23:38
Speaker 2: and consumers have already nicknamed the sneaker the seven eleven shoe,
23:42
Speaker 2: which the company says creates confusion about whether the shoe
23:45
Speaker 2: is officially affiliated with the retailer. Seven eleven tried to
23:51
Speaker 2: resolve the issue before filing suit, but Nike planned to
23:54
Speaker 2: move ahead with the release, which actually happens on Saturday tomorrow.
24:00
Speaker 2: It's also known as seven eleven Day, uh huh, and
24:05
Speaker 2: that happens to be the day that the chain gives
24:08
Speaker 2: away free slurpees. So Nike is going to release the
24:11
Speaker 2: shoe that looks like the seven eleven colors on July eleventh,
24:19
Speaker 2: the day that they celebrate seven eleven Day with free slurpees.
24:25
Speaker 2: They might actually this is one of those lawsuits where
24:27
Speaker 2: normally you go it seems like a bit much. They
24:30
Speaker 2: may have something there, right, This seems like they may
24:34
Speaker 2: There may be something to all of this. If you
24:37
Speaker 2: think America has one favorite dog breed, that's not necessarily true.
24:43
Speaker 2: A new state by state analysis of more than one
24:46
Speaker 2: point two million dog insurance records one point two million
24:51
Speaker 2: yeah I found that Labrador retrievers are the top breed
24:54
Speaker 2: in most states, but they're far from a nationwide runaway
24:58
Speaker 2: winter Chihuahua's are a close second, with a fourteen states
25:04
Speaker 2: being their favorite, especially across the Southwest. Labrador Retrievers dominate
25:09
Speaker 2: much of the Northeast, pit bulls popular in several southern states.
25:13
Speaker 2: What may be most surprising is what didn't make the list.
25:17
Speaker 2: Despite their national popularity. Breeds like poodles, beagles, bulldogs, Dotson's
25:22
Speaker 2: failed to claim the number one spot in any state. Overall,
25:27
Speaker 2: eight different breeds took the top spot somewhere in the country,
25:30
Speaker 2: showing just how regional America's dog preferences really are and
25:37
Speaker 2: if you're wondering. Georgia is one of those states that
25:41
Speaker 2: the pit bull is the favorite. Chihuahua's the favorite in
25:45
Speaker 2: Alabama and Florida. The French bulldog Yorkshire Terriers are the
25:53
Speaker 2: popular dog in New York State and the shitsu in
25:59
Speaker 2: New Jersey. So for that terrier representation there, you know,
26:06
Speaker 2: it's not as high as I would have thought it
26:08
Speaker 2: would have been. I don't see any Jack Russell on
26:10
Speaker 2: the list, so that's disappointing. All right, that'll do it
26:13
Speaker 2: for this Friday edition of the show. Thanks to our
26:15
