  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: Thursday morning, sixteenth day of January. I'm Wes, thanks for
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: joining me. Well, we had another another day of watching
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: the senators holler at appointees made by the President elect.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: Yesterday it was Pam Bondi's turn to be in the
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: hot seat that she is up for attorney general. Let
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: me this just quickly. I want to say this just
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: for full disclosure. I've met Pam Bondy. I interviewed Pam
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Bondy years ago and she was a fantastic interview great
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: to talk with. I've seen her interviewed by other people.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: I thought she did a great job yesterday. I did
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: not watch every second of every person who wanted to,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: you know, absolutely try to crucify her while she's sitting
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: up there. It's a shame that this is basically every
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: single one of Trump's picks is ultimately an extension of Trump,
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: an extension of and to use the word, part of
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: the enemies list that they have related to him. And
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: that's important because one of the high drama moments from
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: the day yesterday, and I guess this came up a
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: few times as they were some of the Democrat senators
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: were asking Bondie about Cash Battel, who very well may
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: be running the FBI moving forward, and just kind of
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: grilling her on information about Cash Battel, which I don't
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: think that's particularly a fair question. You're starting to ask
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: questions that I think ultimately have become talking points for
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: many on the left, and they're just sort of sticking
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: with this narrative of Cash Patel, bad Cash Patel said,
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: enemies list, Cash Patel is wanting to run the FBI,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Boo Cash Patel. And ultimately, you know, Bondi is saying,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: you're asking me about questions about another person. I don't
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: know those comments. I don't know what was said. One
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: person in particular who brought it up was Richard Blumenthal
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: from Connecticut, and he basically said, you know that this
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: referenced the enemy's list and said, is this someone that
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: they should rec he should recant those comments, and do
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: you disavow what he said? And Bondi, I thought, handled
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: herself well, Senator. I'm not familiar with all those comments.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: I've not discussed those comments with mister Patel. What I
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: do know is that mister Patel Bloomenthal tried to cut
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: her off, and that's and she said, what I do
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: is know mister Patel was a career prosecutor. He was
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: a career public defender, defending people, and he also has
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: great experience within the intelligence community. What I can sit
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: here and tell you is mister Patel, if he works
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: with running the FBI, if he is confirmed, and if
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: I'm confirmed, he will follow the law if I'm Attorney
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: General of the United States of America, and I don't
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: believe he would do anything otherwise. Blumenthal's response then was,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: let me just submit that the response that I would
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: have hoped to hear from you is that those comments
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: are inappropriate and that you will ask him to disavow
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: or recant them when he comes before this committee because
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: they are indeed chilling to fair enforcement and rule the law.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: So we're coming into this now where we're seeing these
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: senators come in with their own enemies list and ultimately
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: their enemies' lists that are built around we hate Trump,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: we hate you for associating with Trump. I don't know
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: if maybe they understand that BONDI is going to get confirmed.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: I don't know if this is they're picking sort of
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: the select ones. P tell by the way, the reason
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: that they hate him is that he wrote a book
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: called Government Gangsters, The Deep State, The Truth in the
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Battle of Our Democracy, for our Democracy, and he often
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: referenced the people in the deep state, the people that
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: are in fact, in reality this used to be a
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: conspiracy theory. Used to not be able to even talk
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: about this. There's a number of things that we used
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: to be told, you can't talk about these things because
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: you know, a conspiracy theory and you're crazy. And then
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: many of these things started to turn out to be
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: true and a reality. And then suddenly now the people
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: that are, you know, the bad guys are the ones
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: that are trying to call you a conspiracy theorist for
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: thinking them. I believe wholeheartedly there's a deep state. And
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: I think, and I've said this many times during this
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Biden administration, that when you have a president like Joe Biden,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: who clearly does not have all of his facilities, he
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: clearly has cognition issues. He clearly is struggling just to
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: make a speech something that is printed out for him,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: or is when he's got the printed out questions and
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: answers that he's getting in press conferences, and he's having
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: to look and see the photo of the person that
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: he's going to call on so that he can remember
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: their name. Look, I've said this many times before. I
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: don't mock it. I got a history of dementia and
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: cognition issues in my family, many loved ones that we
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: have witnessed this slow decline, this slow process happen. I
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: have a lot of empathy for the family and the
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: people around anyone who's dealing with this. So I'm not
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: mocking him. I'm not mocking him at all. It's sad
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: pitiful maybe, is the word I would use for someone
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: who was paraded into a presidency when he was not
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: capable of actually serving properly for the four years. But anyway,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: so when you start thinking about the fact that this
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: president has not been really at the wheel, he hasn't
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: been running things, and you're gonna tell me there's not
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: a deep state that's making the calls behind the scenes.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: It's not asking him to sign papers and here, sign this, here,
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: sign off on this, and then you can go take
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: your nap or what get to bed At four a pm.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: You know, they let us know, there's a small window
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: like ten to four when he's able to do things,
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: and then outside of that, you don't know what you're getting.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: It's a wild, wild scene, a wild card thing. They
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: made a huge mistake, thankfully for all of us, when
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: they decided to get him in that debate and really
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: embarrass himself. But I don't know. I don't know that
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: they could have pulled off a second term for him,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: considering the economy, considering that was the main pull in it.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: But anyway, so that's what they don't like. They don't
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: like anybody who's calling out the deep state. They don't
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: like anybody that's calling out those people that are behind
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: the scenes, and especially if you're bold enough that you're
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: willing to reference who they are. And I guess sixty
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: people Patel called out in his book, and I would
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: imagine those sixty people aren't happy about it. So it
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: gives you a good indication of maybe where they are.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: And it's interesting that basically all of these nominees they
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: can't yell at Trump, they can't scream at Try, but
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: they can get up there in grandstand and you know,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: maybe Blumenthal certainly not make it a case for why
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: he should run for president. I wouldn't think I would
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: welcome him being the Democrat nominee against just about anybody. However,
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: they can't do that, and they know that the American
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: people have spoken out about Trump, so they're taking it out.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: I think this is what I'm just the impression I'm
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: getting is that they're really taking it out on Trump's picks.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: We saw that with heg Seth. We're going to see
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: that as they go through all of this, as we
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: move forward in this whole process. Other thing I want
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: to talk about today because I could talk more about
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: all that, but I really wanted to transition over and
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: talk a little bit about what's going on with TikTok
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: because a lot of people are wondering. You know, they've
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: got TikTok and they're concerned about it, and you know,
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: we've all heard this that TikTok on Sunday is getting
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: ready to go dark, and what does that mean exactly.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of people asking questions about what happens.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: There've been talk if this happened overnight, I missed it.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: There's been talk about a couple of people wanting to
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: buy TikTok buy them out so that it could survive.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Uh and of course I and again, this is one
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: of those things that when you talked about it at first,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: people were like, you're crazy. But any app that you're
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: using that has strong ties and roots to the Chinese government,
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: they're tracking you, they're monitoring what you're doing, they're monitoring
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: what you're purchasing. They very well may be listening to you.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: You're signing off, especially if you're making TikTok videos, you're
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: signing off permission for them to use your microphone. I
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: know you're not supposed to say these things, but it's
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: a reality. You think it's a coincidence that when you
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: talk about how you know you're you're in the market
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: for a car, and then all of a sudden, all
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: of your you know, your Google searches or your Facebook
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: or Instagram or what all the ads on there about cars,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: and all you did was talk about cars. That happens.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: That's a real thing. And if you think that the
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: folks running TikTok haven't been tracking everything that they can
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: possibly track, and there's already been bands of TikTok for
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: that reason. In government scenarios and you can't have the
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: you know, the app on any sort of government device.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: And I think there's been something that have been doing
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: it anyway. Maybe I don't know. I don't know, but
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: the point is it's I think it's time for it
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: to go. And I understand. You know, Trump said, Hey,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: I used it helped me win an election. I'm excited
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: about it. I've changed my tune on TikTok. So here's
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: a couple of things that are going to be going down,
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: and they say these are the two likeliest of scenarios.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: And I don't know that anybody really knows for sure
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: exactly how this is going to happen first and foremost,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: And I don't encourage this, but I'm offering you this
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: as just if you haven't already gotten TikTok, you're probably
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: not going to download it now, but you probably have
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: from now until Sunday or I guess through Saturday whenever.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I guess Sunday is when it's going
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: to go down to download it, because it's going to
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: disappear from the app stores. Ultimately, this new law is
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: targeting people that make it available, so Apple, Google, any
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: of those having it available to people to download. So
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: are there going to be ways that you can still
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: get it? Probably you go on the on the dark web,
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: find a way to get the get TikTok's app. I
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: guess they won't be an ability to do any updates.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: I don't know how any of that's going to work,
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: but anyway, So basically, one option is that it's just
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: going to go dark completely. You'll open the app, there'll
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: be no content. You'll get a message that says the
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: service is not available in your country, and why was
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: it ever? Why was it ever? I get it. People
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: have fun with it. But there are other options also,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: so someone who was saying, what am I supposed to
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: do if TikTok goes away? There's other apps that are
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: just like it. I don't understand why it has to
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: be that one. I just don't get it. Why does
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: it have to be that particular one, the one with
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: the ties to China. The other option, apparently accord to
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: the other scenario I guess, is that it will just
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: slowly degrade over time. You'll be able to use the app,
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: you won't be able to get any new features or
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: patches or updates, and as time goes by, it'll become
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: less functional and slowly the content will start to fade
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: away from it. Something else is going to emerge to
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: fill this TikTok shaped hole. If there's not, and is
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: there not already something to replace it, it feels like
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: there should be. I mean, Instagram does a lot of
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: the same things. You can do a lot of the
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: same stuff, right. I know you can't do all the
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: same stuff, but I think it's pretty close. And that's meta.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: That's Facebook, that's where that is. Can you not do
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: a lot of the same stuff with Snapchat. I've got
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: a friend who calls it snapcrack just to be funny,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: and I almost called it snapcrack. I had to catch
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: myself before I called it snapcrack. But the bottom line
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: is we're gonna be okay. We're gonna get through Sunday
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: without TikTok and it's gonna be just fine. And of course,
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: throw all this out the window if by the time
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: you're listening to it, some billionaire like Elon Musk or
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: the guy from Shark Tank on one of those guys
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: Kevin what's his name, if they haven't already decided there
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: or made an arrangement that they can purchase it, because
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: that would change everything if we have it owned by
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: Americans and it's not mining for information and it's not
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: listening in on all the things that we're doing, trying
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: to grab our secrets and any of our patterns and
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: things that they can use against us. Because that's what's happening.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: That's what's been happening. I don't have the app. I
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: don't it's not on any of my devices. I'm not
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: planning to download it by Sunday. I don't have a
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: need for it. I haven't had a need for it.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: I'm not really doing anything. I guess that TikTok would
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: find overly interesting. Maybe they would find interest in what
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: I do professionally, but I don't know. I don't know
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: what they're But there's other I mean, my phone is
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: in my vicinity now of my voice, so I'm probably
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: already gonna get car ads. I could just tell you
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: that just for talking about that earlier. But I'm aware
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: that there are other companies that are listening. I don't
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: have what is it, TIMU, I don't have that any
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: of this stuff that's going It's basically like an open line.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: It's like having just a phone off the hook that's
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: connected to China and there's just someone on the other
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: end typing out whatever you're saying. That's what it feels
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: like to me. I don't need that. We'll be fine.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: We'll be fine without TikTok. In fact, you might get
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: to see your kids' faces a little bit more until
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: they figure out whatever the next thing is.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I guess.

  Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder, warmer weather, sometimes that
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: a situation where you'd like to add a screen door
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: to your garage door system that you can put down
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: and you can use your garage space as a sort
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like to
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: work on your own cars in there, or maybe you
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: just want a little man cavid you'd like to be
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: able to open the door up and not invite all
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: the insects in. They can do that for you as well,
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: and again they do after hours calls there's nothing worse
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: than that thought of having your car trapped inside your
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: garage and your garage door won't open and you need
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: somebody to come help. And they do those as well.

  Speaker 2: dot com More West Carol Morning Show. Right after the break,
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: a little of the news sir that was done by
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: the Kaiser Family Foundation says one in eight people have
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: taken GOLP one drugs like ozepic and we govy to
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: help with weight loss. Naturally, food brands are noticing. Food
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: giant ConAgra Brands, for example, has introduced an on track
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: badge on their Healthy Choice products highlighting high protein, high
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: fiber options. Daily Harvest has launched a GLP one companion
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: food collection with dietician curated meals, and just launched a
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: high protein line of smoothies as well as pastas and desserts.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: Why the high protein because experts say that rapid weight
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: loss can lead to loss of muscle mass, and higher
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: protein diets, along with other measures, can help prevent that.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: So I'm actually surprised this didn't happen sooner, but I
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: guess maybe this is right on track for the timeline
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: for this to take place. So basically, people are taking
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: the drugs, they're losing weight, and now, of course companies
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: are saying, hey, wait a minute, we need to figure
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: out how we can you know, make some money off
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: of this, which you know, I'm all about free markets.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Almost said that word capitalism, but that's really like a
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: kral Marx word. I don't like the word. I don't
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: like it. I mean, i'll say it. But anyway, so
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: that's good for the free markets, and hopefully this will
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: help people who are utilizing those drugs for weight loss,
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: not the intended plan for those drugs. But oftentimes we've
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: got a number of drugs that are being used for
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: things they weren't intended for. I'm looking at you via grow. Yeah,
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: just the viagra, that's all we're looking at anyway. All right,
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: another food related story for this morning. Every packaged food
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: item containing a nutritional label, letting consumers know what they're
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: putting in their bodies. Right, many times you can't print
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: ounts a lot of those ingredients. Those are some of
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: the ones you need to be most concerned about. But
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: the FDA is concerned that people aren't looking and they
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: say that they're not sure what they're eating. So the
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: FDA is proposing a new rule that would require food
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: manufacturers to display some of the important nutritional information things
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: like saturated fat, sodium, added sugar, all that kind of
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: stuff on the front of the packaging, so it will
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: be in addition to the standard nutritional guide on the back.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: Rebecca Buckner, the FDA's Associate Deputy Director for Human Food Policy, says,
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: we believe that food should be a vehicle for wellness,
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: not a contributor of chronic disease. The new rule would
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: likely go into effect by twenty twenty eight, so that
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: is when you can kind of expect to start seeing
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: those things popping up on those labels and things on
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: the front of the packaging. I mean, I got some
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: other suggestions that I think would be more effective, but
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: no one seems to care what I think about ways
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: to I don't know. We'll see if we get any
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: changes in any other areas with some of these food
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: and ingredients in the coming four years. Beginning on you know, Monday,
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: the days of just hanging out in Starbucks and not
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: buying anything, maybe coming to an end beginning on January
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: twenty seventh, that's a week from Monday. They say you'll
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: need to use if you want to use their restrooms
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: or their Wi Fi, their facilities, their patios to hang out,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: you'll need to buy something. That new policy is one
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: of the first big moves by their new CEO, Brian Nickel.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: Starbucks spaces are for use by our partners and customers.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: This includes cafes, patios, restrooms. It's according to the new
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: Code of Conduct and a spokesperson for the company, J C. Anderson, says,
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: by setting clear expectations for behavior and use of our spaces,
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: we can create a better environment for everyone. This has
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: potential to get ugly fast, people that are used to this,
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: people that have just kind of been in there hanging out.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: My suggestion is, if you're looking for those, you know
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: you're gonna want to find a Starbucks that's like built
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: into a bookstore or I don't does Target have a
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: place that you can just hang out while you're in
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: there having your coffee. Maybe you're gonna want to maybe
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: find one of those type places. If you don't want
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: to buy anything, you don't want to buy a coffee
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: potentially that's something that could benefit you. I guess that'll
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: do it for this Thursday edition of the show. Thanks
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: to our sponsors and patrons. Thank you for listening. I'll
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: catch you back here tomorrow morning.
