- 2:08Speaker 5: Brown paper peg.
- 2:10Speaker 3: But then.
- 2:15Speaker 5: I tripped on a cloud and fell eight miles high high.
- 2:19Speaker 3: I told mine back.
- 2:21Speaker 5: On a jagged sky. I just dropped in to see
- 2:26Speaker 5: what condition my condition was in?
- 2:30Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, what condition?
- 2:33Speaker 3: Condition? Welcome everybody to doctor Cooper's Natural Health Towers. We've
- 2:51Speaker 3: got the seventeenth of December. Santa Claus is just right
- 2:57Speaker 3: around the corner for anybody that might have been good,
- 3:00Speaker 3: and that probably rules out most of us. But anyway,
- 3:04Speaker 3: we have got Susie, Bill, producer Steve behind the curtain,
- 3:09Speaker 3: and myself. We're all here tonight, and tonight's topic is
- 3:13Speaker 3: going to be on hormones and what's the difference between
- 3:19Speaker 3: natural and especially We're going to cover a lot of
- 3:22Speaker 3: women's hormones because that's the one that makes the news
- 3:27Speaker 3: the most, but we'll touch on TESTOSTERONEI stuff a little bit.
- 3:31Speaker 3: But anyway, first let's let Susie and Bill and producer
- 3:35Speaker 3: Steve if he would like, go ahead and say hello, Susie.
- 3:39Speaker 7: Good evening everyone, thanks for joining us.
- 3:44Speaker 8: The folks.
- 3:46Speaker 3: All right, ladies and gentlemen, we're back. And producer Steve,
- 3:50Speaker 3: if you ever want to jump in, the door is
- 3:53Speaker 3: always open, so glad to have you. I got a
- 3:58Speaker 3: little bill calls him rants uh, and he's probably right.
- 4:02Speaker 3: I'm ranting a little bit tonight when I post the show,
- 4:05Speaker 3: and I'm doing it all week long and looking for
- 4:08Speaker 3: songs and jokes and all that stuff. I've been seeing
- 4:12Speaker 3: a lot of people tell us how we should tip
- 4:19Speaker 3: and how much we should tip according to their formula.
- 4:25Speaker 3: And what I noticed in their formula it had nothing
- 4:29Speaker 3: to do with service. It was some like one of
- 4:34Speaker 3: them said, well, you should do twenty percent, but another
- 4:39Speaker 3: one had this formula where you move a decimal then
- 4:42Speaker 3: you multiply by three, and instead of twenty percent, it
- 4:46Speaker 3: was like, oh, thirty or forty percent, and it said,
- 4:52Speaker 3: if you can't afford to do this, then you shouldn't
- 4:55Speaker 3: go out to eat. And I'm thinking, well, first off,
- 5:01Speaker 3: you should be tipping according to service. And I don't
- 5:07Speaker 3: think in my entire life, I've never not tipped somebody.
- 5:11Speaker 3: I've never had that bad of service, but there's been
- 5:15Speaker 3: times where I tipped more than you had to if
- 5:19Speaker 3: I could afford to, because the service was that fabulous,
- 5:24Speaker 3: and they like sometimes they made recommendations, and sometimes like
- 5:30Speaker 3: I went to a place one time and the young
- 5:33Speaker 3: guy said, you know, if you order this and this,
- 5:36Speaker 3: it's cheaper than the way you were trying to do it.
- 5:39Speaker 3: That's you know, you save a little money and you
- 5:41Speaker 3: made a little more money in your tip, So it's
- 5:44Speaker 3: a win win for everybody. But when I see these
- 5:48Speaker 3: things online, I'm wondering, who are these people. First off,
- 5:54Speaker 3: there's a lot of people on all these social networks
- 5:59Speaker 3: that want to give it advice, and sometimes it's not
- 6:02Speaker 3: even advice. Sometimes it's like they're trying to command you.
- 6:06Speaker 3: But I just can't imagine that you go out to
- 6:09Speaker 3: eat and your whole focus is on giving a certain
- 6:14Speaker 3: amount of money no matter what the service is. Like,
- 6:19Speaker 3: that ain't happening. And I'm sure I've aired on the
- 6:24Speaker 3: side of more many times with great service than I
- 6:29Speaker 3: have on the side of just giving what the standard.
- 6:33Speaker 3: And a lot of places today even have the tips
- 6:36Speaker 3: built in and they're recommended tips. Sometimes it's lower than
- 6:41Speaker 3: I would have done on my own. So I don't
- 6:44Speaker 3: know where they come up with some of these numbers,
- 6:45Speaker 3: but anyway, I think it's about service and when somebody
- 6:51Speaker 3: waits on you and you can tell they like what
- 6:53Speaker 3: they're doing and they're not dreading it. I was in
- 6:58Speaker 3: Applebee's one time years ago, and that particular restaurant's not
- 7:05Speaker 3: even there anymore. But the bar tender and somebody else
- 7:11Speaker 3: must have had a bad day or they were arguing,
- 7:14Speaker 3: and the lady running the bar also, we were sitting
- 7:19Speaker 3: in the bar section, took your ardor and got your food,
- 7:24Speaker 3: and she came over and she was in kind of
- 7:26Speaker 3: a hissy fit mood, but she took our arder, we thought,
- 7:31Speaker 3: and a little while later she talked to somebody and
- 7:34Speaker 3: just walked right out the door. Never turned in the orders,
- 7:39Speaker 3: they never got a replacement, and so finally we just
- 7:43Speaker 3: got up and left because there was no food coming
- 7:45Speaker 3: and nobody so I certainly wasn't going to leave a
- 7:48Speaker 3: good tip, and we didn't even get a meal. We
- 7:52Speaker 3: didn't get nothing. I think we had some water maybe
- 7:54Speaker 3: before before she walked out the door. So I don't know, Susie,
- 7:59Speaker 3: what are you think, is there a magic number or
- 8:02Speaker 3: do we go by service?
- 8:08Speaker 9: I tend to well, there is a magic number. We
- 8:15Speaker 9: have to keep in mind they're not paying tax on
- 8:18Speaker 9: tips anymore. Okay, so'll you know I keep that in mind.
- 8:25Speaker 7: I see these receipts.
- 8:27Speaker 9: Where you have the option to click, you know, fifteen, twenty, thirty,
- 8:33Speaker 9: thirty five, and I'm like, thirty five percent. It's probably
- 8:40Speaker 9: not right, but the majority of the time we stick
- 8:45Speaker 9: to fifteen percent. And then if it's stellar, as much
- 8:53Speaker 9: as thirty I mean as much as twenty, not thirty.
- 8:58Speaker 9: So one time, we have our favorite little place in Kerville,
- 9:04Speaker 9: in that place you love, and there's this one lady
- 9:08Speaker 9: and she's always so kind and gentle, and she's just
- 9:13Speaker 9: been there forever. And Hartley went in there to eat
- 9:17Speaker 9: by himself. And I'm not saying this to brag, I
- 9:23Speaker 9: mean not at all. And so he generally gets a
- 9:26Speaker 9: combination fada and generally a sweet tea. So I'm guessing
- 9:32Speaker 9: it was, you know, somewhere between twenty twenty two dollars
- 9:38Speaker 9: at that time, and.
- 9:42Speaker 7: He gave it.
- 9:44Speaker 9: He gave one hundred dollar bill and she.
- 9:47Speaker 7: Said, I'll be brought back with your change.
- 9:49Speaker 9: And he said, I don't need any change, and so
- 9:55Speaker 9: she said seriously, and he's said, yeah, I don't need
- 10:00Speaker 9: any change. And then he was getting up to leave
- 10:05Speaker 9: and he saw her standing back in the kitchen and crying. Well,
- 10:09Speaker 9: someone told him this is a place we go in
- 10:13Speaker 9: all the time. Someone know she did the next time
- 10:18Speaker 9: he went in and said, she said she was having
- 10:21Speaker 9: a horrible, horrible day and that it was her birthday.
- 10:27Speaker 9: So you never know even if someone well, in her case,
- 10:31Speaker 9: she was having a horrible day, but Toman couldn't tell.
- 10:36Speaker 9: She had to say that she did. But you never
- 10:41Speaker 9: know what someone's going through.
- 10:43Speaker 7: You know.
- 10:43Speaker 9: Maybe it's a waitress and a parent died, or a sibling,
- 10:47Speaker 9: or they got papers.
- 10:51Speaker 7: Divorce papers. You just don't know. But yet they still
- 10:54Speaker 7: showed up to work.
- 10:57Speaker 10: And sometimes they're just me, yeah, I've had bad service,
- 11:05Speaker 10: but I've had some really fabulous service most of the time.
- 11:09Speaker 3: Most of the time. I think if you treat them
- 11:13Speaker 3: a certain way and they treat you a certain way,
- 11:15Speaker 3: you have a great time. And now he tipped her
- 11:19Speaker 3: or gave her basically an eighty dollars tip on it
- 11:23Speaker 3: when she was having a bad day. She'll never forget that.
- 11:26Speaker 3: So that was nice. And there's probably a lot of
- 11:30Speaker 3: times when you couldn't have done that, and the fact
- 11:33Speaker 3: that he could and did made her day. That's nice,
- 11:37Speaker 3: But nobody told him he had to. That's what I
- 11:39Speaker 3: don't like about these posts that I'm seeing. Bill. How
- 11:43Speaker 3: about you? Do you do you think it's about service
- 11:47Speaker 3: or just a cut and dried number.
- 11:51Speaker 8: No. I think it should always be about service. And
- 11:56Speaker 8: like you, I think most of the times, there's been
- 11:58Speaker 8: a long time since I've gone to a t, but
- 12:00Speaker 8: most of the times, singing back over the years, the
- 12:03Speaker 8: service has been really very good. There have been a
- 12:05Speaker 8: couple of times when it was not. And you know
- 12:10Speaker 8: people say, well, don't leave any tip at all. Well,
- 12:13Speaker 8: you know they can just figure you forgot So in
- 12:16Speaker 8: those couple of situations, I'd leave like a dollar and
- 12:19Speaker 8: a half, all right, And you know, you have a
- 12:24Speaker 8: thirty forty dollars meal and you leave them a buck
- 12:26Speaker 8: and a half tip. That should give them a message.
- 12:29Speaker 8: Probably not, but it should be about service. I mean,
- 12:33Speaker 8: it is a service industry. You don't have good food,
- 12:36Speaker 8: you don't have good service, you're out of business.
- 12:39Speaker 3: Yeah, And most of them only get a couple bucks
- 12:41Speaker 3: an hour plus tips, so you would like to know
- 12:45Speaker 3: that they're not hating what they're doing that time. At Applebee's,
- 12:52Speaker 3: that was one of my favorite places. It was always
- 12:55Speaker 3: great in there. The food was great, the service was good.
- 12:59Speaker 3: And they had this lady that one night and she
- 13:02Speaker 3: just took our order and then a little bit later
- 13:05Speaker 3: walked right out the door, didn't even put the order in,
- 13:09Speaker 3: and she had done this, so I guess a few
- 13:11Speaker 3: other people there, so I don't know what happened. But
- 13:15Speaker 3: in any profession, you kind of have to not wear
- 13:20Speaker 3: the world on your shoulders when you're dealing with customers
- 13:24Speaker 3: and you know that kind of stuff. You got to
- 13:27Speaker 3: try to get through your day and not dumping on everybody.
- 13:33Speaker 3: But like what Hunley did for that lady made her
- 13:35Speaker 3: day and that was pretty nice. And he didn't know,
- 13:38Speaker 3: but nobody made him do that. And these people telling
- 13:42Speaker 3: you you shouldn't go out to eat if you don't
- 13:45Speaker 3: tip thirty percent, well that's that's crazy. You get like
- 13:50Speaker 3: that lady in Applebee's. If I was going to leave
- 13:53Speaker 3: a tip and then she walked out the door and
- 13:55Speaker 3: never came back.
- 13:58Speaker 7: We went.
- 14:00Speaker 8: It was in.
- 14:03Speaker 9: The latter part of no. It was the June after
- 14:08Speaker 9: nine to eleven, and so it was our anniversary and
- 14:14Speaker 9: we should have known better. We went to Ruth Chris
- 14:18Speaker 9: Steakhouse in San Antonio and we didn't have a reservation,
- 14:23Speaker 9: but considering it was only two people, they set us
- 14:29Speaker 9: in the bar and until they had an opening.
- 14:31Speaker 7: So we sat there.
- 14:32Speaker 9: For almost two hours and I looked at Hanley and
- 14:35Speaker 9: I said, these people don't care. They just don't care.
- 14:39Speaker 9: I know, they've got a table for two and because
- 14:44Speaker 9: I've seen too many people walk out. And what's the
- 14:48Speaker 9: name of that.
- 14:49Speaker 7: It's not Denny's.
- 14:51Speaker 9: It's it's a greasy spoon. I think it's you know
- 14:55Speaker 9: it's known for. Is it waffle house? Maybe it's waffle House.
- 15:02Speaker 9: So we started out, Yeah, we started out going to
- 15:05Speaker 9: Ruth Chris. They totally ignore us for two hours and
- 15:11Speaker 9: it got to the point that nothing was open, and
- 15:14Speaker 9: we ended up at a waffle House for our anniversary
- 15:18Speaker 9: and had good service.
- 15:21Speaker 3: I like waffles. That's funny. Well, the thing in Applebee's
- 15:28Speaker 3: was it blew me away. That's the first time that
- 15:30Speaker 3: they took my order anywhere. And then they ended up
- 15:34Speaker 3: walking out the door, and I don't know what was
- 15:36Speaker 3: going on, but she just she got into argument somebody
- 15:40Speaker 3: that worked there with her, and she I guess she
- 15:43Speaker 3: took everybody's orders and then all of us sat there
- 15:46Speaker 3: while she walked out the door crazy.
- 15:49Speaker 9: And we won't talk about Red Lobsters Tequila team.
- 15:52Speaker 7: We'll just skip right over that. One.
- 15:56Speaker 3: My worst memory there was they served bad oysters. I
- 16:03Speaker 3: love oysters, and they taste.
- 16:06Speaker 7: It horrible and horrible when they're good.
- 16:10Speaker 3: No, they taste good. And I know you didn't say that,
- 16:13Speaker 3: and I hope your tongue catches on fire. But I
- 16:17Speaker 3: love them, especially with harsh, reddish and lemon.
- 16:22Speaker 2: Oh.
- 16:22Speaker 3: I love them, and they make them a lot of
- 16:24Speaker 3: different ways. But they had bad ones at one time.
- 16:28Speaker 3: So very funny though. The thing at Applebee's blew my
- 16:32Speaker 3: mind because it was one of our favorite places to
- 16:34Speaker 3: go and that one lady ruined. It must have caused
- 16:39Speaker 3: bad stir because the place closed down and it's one
- 16:43Speaker 3: of the popular ones in Houston, but this one was
- 16:46Speaker 3: in Cyprus and close to us. So all right, Well,
- 16:49Speaker 3: onto our hormone stuff tonight. And uh, the place Matt
- 16:55Speaker 3: looks really cool? Is this you and us our producer together?
- 17:01Speaker 9: Susie or well, yeah, because I was having a huge
- 17:05Speaker 9: brain fart meltdown and I had to beg his help.
- 17:11Speaker 9: Well you got I found the found the place man photo.
- 17:15Speaker 9: But it went downhill from there thanks to Steve put.
- 17:23Speaker 3: Well, you guys did good. I only see one typo
- 17:28Speaker 3: and a word that I don't recognize, so we did
- 17:30Speaker 3: really good for having a bad time.
- 17:35Speaker 8: But you.
- 17:37Speaker 3: Obviously, Uh Anyway, a lot of this goes to women
- 17:45Speaker 3: hormones because they have so much more going on because
- 17:48Speaker 3: of the baby factory and what happened for a long time.
- 17:54Speaker 3: In fact, when I met Susie, she was one of
- 17:57Speaker 3: the many women that I had met that had gone down.
- 18:03Speaker 3: I guess you would call it bioidentical. That's what they
- 18:06Speaker 3: told you back then, Susie. Yeah, correct, Yeah, I ran
- 18:11Speaker 3: into a lot of women doing that, and they would
- 18:15Speaker 3: tell women that it was natural because it came from
- 18:19Speaker 3: plant extracts, well natural from plant extracts, and they called
- 18:26Speaker 3: it bioidentical. Is nothing like the hormones in a human body,
- 18:32Speaker 3: especially the female, because they are made from cholesterol. And
- 18:38Speaker 3: so that was just a big scam to sell stuff
- 18:42Speaker 3: and it caused a lot of problems. And then what
- 18:47Speaker 3: was A big kick for a while was Premarin and Provera.
- 18:53Speaker 3: Well Premarin was mostly estrogen and a little progesterone in there,
- 19:02Speaker 3: and Provera was an estrogen and progesterone therapy, and they
- 19:09Speaker 3: caused cancers and blood clots and breast problems and heart problems.
- 19:16Speaker 3: But the sad part was most women didn't know what
- 19:19Speaker 3: premarin even stood far. So I would tell them in
- 19:24Speaker 3: the consult premarin stands far pregnant mare urine. Do you
- 19:32Speaker 3: really want that in your body? Well the doctor said, ah, Well,
- 19:36Speaker 3: the doctor didn't tell you the truth because he'd maken
- 19:39Speaker 3: a lot of money on that, and because of that,
- 19:45Speaker 3: it messed up a lot of women. One of the
- 19:48Speaker 3: things that the government finally admitted years ago was that
- 19:52Speaker 3: prescribing estrogen to women caused a lot of cancer. They
- 19:57Speaker 3: finally admitted it. I think they lost in court or something,
- 20:00Speaker 3: but they found out there was two hundred different compounds,
- 20:07Speaker 3: mostly foreign too the human body in harsh estrogen, and
- 20:14Speaker 3: they wonder why they had so many problems, But bioidentical
- 20:19Speaker 3: it is not. This is why cholesterol is so important
- 20:26Speaker 3: in your body. As we age, our brain continues to
- 20:32Speaker 3: be the number one customer for estrogen. And the hormones
- 20:36Speaker 3: in your body come from cholesterol. And guess what the
- 20:42Speaker 3: one they tell you is the bad one, the LDL.
- 20:46Speaker 3: That's where the hormones are made from. So pretty silly stuff.
- 20:52Speaker 3: If you look at our template, you'll see they did
- 20:58Speaker 3: a really great job. If you guys are listening to
- 21:02Speaker 3: this and looking at it. It's got estrogen, it's got testosterone.
- 21:08Speaker 3: What else does it have? Let's take a look here. Yeah, progesterone,
- 21:14Speaker 3: fsh t sh all kinds of stuff, and so how
- 21:18Speaker 3: a lot of that works with the woman in her cycle,
- 21:22Speaker 3: and god knows how they figured out women at all,
- 21:26Speaker 3: but the first fourteen to fifteen days of a woman's cycle,
- 21:34Speaker 3: the pituitary releases lutinizing hormone and it helps surge the
- 21:46Speaker 3: mid cycle, causing ovulation to a cure, and it stimulates
- 21:49Speaker 3: the follicle to rupture and release the egg towards the
- 21:55Speaker 3: end of that fourteen fifteen days if you're going to
- 21:58Speaker 3: get pregnant. And then they got gona trophin gonad trophen
- 22:04Speaker 3: releasing hormone from the hypothalmus, and it stimulates the pituitary
- 22:09Speaker 3: to produce FSH and LH and the FSH is follicle
- 22:15Speaker 3: stimulating hormone. It's from the pituitary and it stimulates the
- 22:21Speaker 3: follicle to mature and prepare to release an egg. And
- 22:26Speaker 3: then you've got estrogen, and that's an ovarian hormone. It's
- 22:31Speaker 3: created by the developing follicle. And you've got three kinds
- 22:36Speaker 3: of estrogen, estrone, estradiol, and estril E one, two and three,
- 22:46Speaker 3: and they cause cell proliferation and build up of the
- 22:49Speaker 3: uterine lining to prepare it for possible implantation of an
- 22:54Speaker 3: egg should you're going to get pregnant. And then it
- 22:59Speaker 3: is a pre dominate ovarian hormone for the first half
- 23:03Speaker 3: of the MESTRL cycle. So as you go along here,
- 23:09Speaker 3: if you're gonna get pregnant, then you haven't done something
- 23:14Speaker 3: to stop that. Estrogen rises and then around date thirteen
- 23:23Speaker 3: or fourteen drops off drastically and progesterone starts kicking up. Now,
- 23:29Speaker 3: progesterone is also an ovarian hormone and it's secreted by
- 23:34Speaker 3: the carpus lutium if ovulation accures, So if everything's working
- 23:42Speaker 3: right and they eovulate, then that's gonna happen, and then
- 23:45Speaker 3: it causes a ripening of the uterine lining in preparation
- 23:50Speaker 3: for a possible implantation of the egg, and it causes
- 23:56Speaker 3: the other follicles to dissolve, and it is a predominant
- 24:01Speaker 3: hormone in the second half of this women's cycle, So
- 24:05Speaker 3: her cycle is about twenty eight twenty nine thirty days,
- 24:08Speaker 3: depending and if it is needed in sufficient amounts to
- 24:16Speaker 3: sustain a pregnancy. So without estrogen dropping off and progesterone rising,
- 24:23Speaker 3: you're not going to maintain the pregnancy. And progesterone along
- 24:27Speaker 3: with estrio, they're the predominant hormones of pregnancy. The placenta
- 24:34Speaker 3: joins in the production of these hormones at about the
- 24:38Speaker 3: third month of pregnancy. And so you got all that
- 24:43Speaker 3: going on. But now if a woman takes estrogen are
- 24:50Speaker 3: a birth control, then progesterone's not going to rise in
- 24:54Speaker 3: that second half and the pregnancy will stop and or
- 24:57Speaker 3: the breaks come on. Not a good thing for all
- 25:02Speaker 3: them chemicals doing that and stopping everything, but that that's
- 25:08Speaker 3: the world we live in, and there's you're not going
- 25:11Speaker 3: to change much of that. But back to the hormones
- 25:15Speaker 3: for women, Iodine is very important and omega three fatty
- 25:21Speaker 3: acids and B vitamins. So anytime we're doing anything, B
- 25:27Speaker 3: vitamins managed to be real important. But when they do
- 25:33Speaker 3: hormone therapy, this has been called a Pandora's box. It
- 25:39Speaker 3: the bioidentical hormones associated with problems like blood lipids and
- 25:44Speaker 3: breast disease and heart disease and cancer just not good.
- 25:51Speaker 3: But a lot of people did it. But iodine is
- 25:55Speaker 3: very important for the hormones, the omega three we've had,
- 26:00Speaker 3: the acids very important to B vitamins very important and
- 26:06Speaker 3: in most cases a good starting point for a woman
- 26:10Speaker 3: who's reaching menopause are having hormone problems is iodine and
- 26:19Speaker 3: things like Standard Process Simplex F. For men, we have
- 26:23Speaker 3: the Simplex M cataplex B Cataplex F has got iodine
- 26:28Speaker 3: in it and mentran which is the thing to calm
- 26:32Speaker 3: and ease the nervousness. And then we got several iodines
- 26:38Speaker 3: with Standard Process. We've got an iodomyr, we've got prolamine,
- 26:45Speaker 3: and we've got prolamine iodine plus that's some real high dosages.
- 26:51Speaker 3: And what they found out, especially with women as they
- 26:54Speaker 3: get past fifty, is that high doses of iodine and
- 27:00Speaker 3: was almost like a fountain of youth. One of the
- 27:04Speaker 3: comments here by a doctor. He said, after the therapy,
- 27:09Speaker 3: she continually noticed or he noticed that older women were
- 27:13Speaker 3: becoming more youthful, less depressed, stronger, and more energetic. The
- 27:21Speaker 3: most consistent response have been improved memory, absent a brain
- 27:27Speaker 3: fog bob movements were normal, and skin improved the texture.
- 27:36Speaker 3: So what they were doing was an average of fifty
- 27:40Speaker 3: milligrams of iodine a day. That's a lot. You would
- 27:44Speaker 3: not normally think about that. And they also found out
- 27:49Speaker 3: that arrhythmia's cold, exhaustion, constipation, breast tenderness, all those things.
- 27:59Speaker 3: When you did the of say fifteen tablets of iodine
- 28:02Speaker 3: a day, slowly taper and slowly taper back off till
- 28:07Speaker 3: about three a day, you start getting rid of all
- 28:09Speaker 3: this stuff. So the iodine therapy very important with the hormones.
- 28:15Speaker 3: And I had a patient one time tell me this
- 28:19Speaker 3: was a gentleman. He said, I can't take iodine and
- 28:25Speaker 3: we were doing a nutritional consult and I said, yeah,
- 28:28Speaker 3: you can. I gave you some a long time ago.
- 28:31Speaker 3: And what happens is people take bad junk iodine. It
- 28:36Speaker 3: doesn't belong in the body, and you react, but most
- 28:40Speaker 3: of them don't have that problem. And then going back
- 28:44Speaker 3: to the hormones, like you always hear about guys going
- 28:48Speaker 3: and getting testosterone, Well you get an artificial false maybe
- 28:57Speaker 3: kick up, but it's not natural to the body, and
- 29:00Speaker 3: there's going to be a price to pay. But we
- 29:02Speaker 3: can do a lot of things naturally to help with
- 29:07Speaker 3: low testosterone. And testosterone is pretty important. It's produced into testes,
- 29:16Speaker 3: it's evolved in sperm production, and it prevents osteoporosis, and
- 29:24Speaker 3: it also helps with mood and the heart. So it's
- 29:30Speaker 3: pretty important to men and a little bit is involved
- 29:34Speaker 3: in women, not as much. And then one of the
- 29:39Speaker 3: words on our place math that is probably just a
- 29:46Speaker 3: typo should be oxytocin O x y t oc i
- 29:53Speaker 3: N and it's produced in the hypothalamus and it's released
- 29:57Speaker 3: by the pituitary. So another one that's very important. And
- 30:03Speaker 3: there's a lot of names, a lot of hormone stuff,
- 30:06Speaker 3: But what I found a long time ago is that
- 30:14Speaker 3: if a woman comes in and she's say past fifty,
- 30:18Speaker 3: and she's having all those issues hot flashes and mood
- 30:22Speaker 3: swings and dryness and all that stuff, crying at the
- 30:27Speaker 3: drop of a hat, we need to balance so I
- 30:31Speaker 3: would start with maybe OVX OVEX from standard process. It's
- 30:40Speaker 3: very very good, and then I would do like simplex
- 30:44Speaker 3: F with men, I would do simplex M and that
- 30:49Speaker 3: start balancing. I had one lady came in and she
- 30:54Speaker 3: was a train wreck. Poor thing had suffered. She was
- 30:57Speaker 3: miserable and her her husband was miserable. And she said,
- 31:03Speaker 3: I want to get back to normal work and enjoy
- 31:06Speaker 3: what we you know, what we had instead of where
- 31:08Speaker 3: I'm at now. And we started with simple ex F
- 31:17Speaker 3: and some iodine and some OVX I think we used,
- 31:22Speaker 3: and within a short period of time she was doing
- 31:26Speaker 3: really well. And then there was, i'll think of it
- 31:31Speaker 3: in a second, a couple other issues, and quickly the
- 31:39Speaker 3: hot flashes disappeared and everything started falling in place, and
- 31:46Speaker 3: she was a happy woman, her husband was happy, and
- 31:51Speaker 3: it just a matter of doing it the right way.
- 31:54Speaker 3: OVX is very important when you're dealing with the periods
- 32:02Speaker 3: stopping and maybe it shouldn't have Maybe the periods are
- 32:07Speaker 3: irregular or excessive flow, maybe after postmenopausal stuff. So we're
- 32:15Speaker 3: looking at all that, and then there's an over trophy
- 32:18Speaker 3: in PMG and it's good for pretty much the same thing.
- 32:22Speaker 3: It's good for cysts, it's good for delayed puberty and
- 32:28Speaker 3: menstruation symptoms, uterine congestion, vaginitis, all kinds of stuff like that.
- 32:34Speaker 3: So they work really well and we use them with
- 32:39Speaker 3: simple XF and also WILDM complex This is a god sin.
- 32:49Speaker 3: It was wonderful for menopause, excessive persuation, hot flashes, dryness,
- 32:57Speaker 3: and mood changes. You know, sometimes poor woman would be
- 33:02Speaker 3: happy then crying and sad and angry, and the guy
- 33:05Speaker 3: it's like, what do I do? What did I do?
- 33:07Speaker 3: You know, they don't know what's going on. It's a nightmare.
- 33:10Speaker 3: But we've had great, great success doing that stuff and
- 33:14Speaker 3: balancing with those items. And if you didn't know what
- 33:18Speaker 3: to start, just doing simplex F maybe a good good
- 33:23Speaker 3: start because it's got ovaries, it's got pituitary, it's got adrenals,
- 33:35Speaker 3: and it's got the thyroid all in there. Pretty good
- 33:39Speaker 3: balancing act. All right, Well we're at break time, Susie.
- 33:43Speaker 3: Anything before we go to break.
- 33:46Speaker 9: Well, you know, they really snickered us with that biidentical,
- 33:51Speaker 9: you know, and they had the words and they explained it,
- 33:55Speaker 9: and you're sitting there noding your head because you know,
- 33:59Speaker 9: many of us were doing everything we could searching to
- 34:04Speaker 9: get away from the HRT you know, the horse you'arine stuff.
- 34:10Speaker 9: So yeah, it was a pretty good scam.
- 34:13Speaker 3: Yeah, and it caused a lot of grief and a
- 34:16Speaker 3: lot of problems, and they admitted that. And I still
- 34:20Speaker 3: had patients coming in for years taking estrogen supplements and
- 34:27Speaker 3: it was a nightmare, but they were told they needed
- 34:32Speaker 3: it and what it was doing was causing cancer, especially
- 34:35Speaker 3: breast cancer.
- 34:36Speaker 8: Bill anything, Nope, No, this is a whole whole different
- 34:44Speaker 8: ballgame here. I'm just listening.
- 34:47Speaker 3: Yeah, but you, I'll guarantee you, in your practice and
- 34:51Speaker 3: in your life you've dealt with all these symptoms one
- 34:55Speaker 3: time or another.

- 39:38Speaker 3: All right, we are back and yeah I like whiskey
- 39:41Speaker 3: girls of course, probably too expensive. Maybe it'd be better
- 39:47Speaker 3: if they drink the other stuff. Anyway, Welcome back to
- 39:50Speaker 3: Doctor Crooper's Natural Health Hours. That was the late great
- 39:54Speaker 3: Toby Keith. Uh No, pretty good, pretty good music. I
- 39:58Speaker 3: think we got Susie Bill, producer Steve behind the curtain,
- 40:02Speaker 3: and we are all back and it is the seventeenth
- 40:06Speaker 3: of December, and we just finished talking a little bit
- 40:10Speaker 3: about hormones and Bill tried to evade the subject completely,
- 40:17Speaker 3: but Susie didn't. So Susie anything before we.
- 40:20Speaker 9: Go on.
- 40:27Speaker 3: Do we lose her?
- 40:31Speaker 9: I would just say that this is one of those issues,
- 40:36Speaker 9: at least for me, where it was I don't want
- 40:43Speaker 9: to say experimental hit and miss, but tweaking it because
- 40:48Speaker 9: everybody's different. Impatience and a willingness to you know, talk
- 40:56Speaker 9: to Doc describe what's happening or not happening, and you know, uh,
- 41:03Speaker 9: I don't. For me, it wasn't a magic bullet, so
- 41:09Speaker 9: patience is in my case was necessary.
- 41:15Speaker 3: Yeah, it takes a little figuring out. Uh, you know,
- 41:19Speaker 3: as women get older and all this stuff happens, you
- 41:24Speaker 3: shouldn't even know that you went through menopause. If we
- 41:29Speaker 3: do it right. Many countries in the world where they
- 41:34Speaker 3: were isolated from modern western medicine and all the crazy stuff,
- 41:42Speaker 3: they went and did research and they would ask women
- 41:46Speaker 3: in some of these remote villages and places about irregular
- 41:51Speaker 3: menstrual cycles and menopause and hot flashes and vaginal dryness
- 41:56Speaker 3: and all this horrible stuff breast tenderness, and they said,
- 42:01Speaker 3: we don't have any of that. None. And they had
- 42:06Speaker 3: tried and true things. They made sure they ate a
- 42:08Speaker 3: balanced diet, and there were things that they knew that
- 42:16Speaker 3: kept them healthy. Certain foods that we eat, you know,
- 42:21Speaker 3: a lot of things that balance that are good for
- 42:25Speaker 3: the thyroid, adrenals, pituitary, the testes, the ovaries come from
- 42:31Speaker 3: animal organs and animal byproducts, and so they were doing
- 42:39Speaker 3: all the right stuff just because it was probably handed
- 42:47Speaker 3: down to them over the years from grandmother to daughter
- 42:51Speaker 3: to daughter to daughter, you know, and they were doing
- 42:54Speaker 3: all the right things. So if we do it right,
- 42:58Speaker 3: we can make it where you don't suffer and you
- 43:01Speaker 3: don't go through all that hell. And you know, guys,
- 43:05Speaker 3: you may not be thinking much about this, but if
- 43:08Speaker 3: she's going through it, you're going to catch some flak too,
- 43:12Speaker 3: because she can't help how bad she feels. And I've
- 43:16Speaker 3: seen him in some really, really bad shape. One husband
- 43:21Speaker 3: called me a few weeks after we start treating his
- 43:25Speaker 3: wife and she had come in a couple times on
- 43:29Speaker 3: her own because there was things she wanted to talk
- 43:31Speaker 3: about that she didn't want to say in front of him.
- 43:33Speaker 3: Has embarrassing, And he called up and he said, Doc,
- 43:38Speaker 3: I don't know what you're doing, but it's working. Please
- 43:42Speaker 3: don't stop. So I thought that was pretty great, pretty great.
- 43:48Speaker 9: So you mentioned, you know, balance meal, I would say
- 43:53Speaker 9: that one of our problems is our food supply. And
- 43:57Speaker 9: you know, when they inject hormones into nearly every different
- 44:06Speaker 9: kinds of meat, you know it's problematic. You know, if
- 44:11Speaker 9: you can source meat locally and trust you know, the
- 44:16Speaker 9: the rancher, the farmer or whatever, whether it's chicken or beef,
- 44:22Speaker 9: then that's the way to go. I even question, like
- 44:30Speaker 9: at the grocery store chib they'll have what they call
- 44:35Speaker 9: hib all naturals. Well, I question if it's all natural
- 44:41Speaker 9: so that's uh, that's one culprit that we're up against.
- 44:45Speaker 9: And you know, being a little more mindful of you
- 44:49Speaker 9: know what meat we choose.
- 44:52Speaker 7: Could probably help to Oh yeah.
- 44:55Speaker 3: A whole bunch because a lot of the things that
- 44:59Speaker 3: fix these pro problems we're putting back in the diet.
- 45:03Speaker 3: Give you an example, simplex F magnesium, bovine ovary, bovine adrenals,
- 45:13Speaker 3: bovine pituitary, bovine thyroid, and those are the main key
- 45:24Speaker 3: things that you would have got in your diet if
- 45:27Speaker 3: you were eating those kind of foods. That's why the
- 45:30Speaker 3: poor vegetarians and the vegans they have a really hard
- 45:34Speaker 3: time because you can't get that stuff from plants. That's
- 45:38Speaker 3: just like natural B twelve. They try to get it
- 45:43Speaker 3: from plants, and they also said you could get B
- 45:47Speaker 3: vitamins with B twelve. But what they found out years ago,
- 45:51Speaker 3: without the intrinsic factor, which was the Parenkam aligning of
- 45:57Speaker 3: the stomach of the cow, you could not get betwelved
- 46:02Speaker 3: to be absorbed when you ate. That's why when you
- 46:05Speaker 3: ate the cow, you got the nutrients you needed. So
- 46:10Speaker 3: a lot of times when we're healing people, we're just
- 46:13Speaker 3: putting back in what should have been there, and then
- 46:17Speaker 3: sometimes we're clearing out all the bad stuff that came
- 46:20Speaker 3: from food and drink and water that shouldn't have been there.
- 46:25Speaker 3: And that's one of the things I like about Robert
- 46:28Speaker 3: Kennedy's junior right now is he is cracking down a
- 46:32Speaker 3: little bit and companies are starting to have to tell
- 46:36Speaker 3: you what's in there and get rid of the bad
- 46:38Speaker 3: He's got coca cola, which I don't know how they
- 46:42Speaker 3: got away with this all these years, but everywhere but
- 46:46Speaker 3: the United States they used natural cane sugar, and in
- 46:52Speaker 3: the United States they used high fructose corn syrup, and
- 46:56Speaker 3: they knew the problems that will cause. So were they
- 46:59Speaker 3: in with the pharmaceutical company so they could deal with
- 47:03Speaker 3: diabetes and drugs? I don't know, but you gotta be
- 47:08Speaker 3: kind of suspicious when the rest of the world says no,
- 47:13Speaker 3: and here we were doing it, and they make the
- 47:16Speaker 3: same company makes coca cola with cane sugar for the
- 47:21Speaker 3: rest of the world, and and then here they don't.
- 47:25Speaker 3: And you got you gotta think about that a minute.
- 47:28Speaker 3: Cane sugar is a much more natural, healthy product, and
- 47:33Speaker 3: they did it on purpose. So a lot of these
- 47:37Speaker 3: companies are using junk I was talking to Susie off Err.
- 47:42Speaker 3: She likes Southern kan coffee and there's a couple of
- 47:49Speaker 3: places you can get some really good stuff, and I
- 47:53Speaker 3: know she likes AGB, so I was looking at AB
- 47:58Speaker 3: to see what they had, and sure enough, it's set
- 48:03Speaker 3: on the front of the label hib Southern Pecan Artificial
- 48:11Speaker 3: and Natural. And I thought, why why would you put
- 48:18Speaker 3: artificial stuff in coffee to begin with when natural is
- 48:23Speaker 3: so much better and it can't be cheaper. I don't
- 48:28Speaker 3: understand the logic. So anyway, we found a couple of
- 48:33Speaker 3: places that have the Southern Pecan coffee that tastes great
- 48:37Speaker 3: and is all natural. So I forget the name of that.
- 48:42Speaker 3: One company says he was at Ezra Easy, Yeah, okay.
- 48:48Speaker 3: And then our other one is our friend Patty up
- 48:52Speaker 3: there at Coffee and Tea Junkie. So they both have
- 48:58Speaker 3: good and it's all natural.
- 48:59Speaker 9: Both of the those companies, well, you know, it's kind
- 49:02Speaker 9: of interesting, kind of funny that they have to use
- 49:09Speaker 9: Well HB is a Texas based company, and it's not
- 49:14Speaker 9: that I like them, it's I don't really have any
- 49:16Speaker 9: other choice around here. But to me, it's funny that
- 49:21Speaker 9: they have to use artificial flavoring when the state tree
- 49:28Speaker 9: of Texas is up a coon tree.
- 49:33Speaker 3: Yeah. I never thought about that, but that's really ridiculous,
- 49:36Speaker 3: and natural tastes better. We talked on the show a
- 49:41Speaker 3: while back about this company that I talked to that
- 49:44Speaker 3: was making breakfast Tomali's and they had chocolate and in
- 49:50Speaker 3: there it said artificial and natural. And I called them
- 49:54Speaker 3: up and the lady told me, well, our customers expect that.
- 49:59Speaker 3: I said, no, they don't. You give them a taste
- 50:02Speaker 3: test with real chocolate versus artificial and real chocolate, and
- 50:07Speaker 3: you're going to find out everybody picks the real chocolate,
- 50:11Speaker 3: or probably everybody would. But she didn't like that, and
- 50:14Speaker 3: I told her, well, you better get ready because Robert F.
- 50:17Speaker 3: Kennedy juniors come in your way and they're not going
- 50:20Speaker 3: to put up with all that artificial stuff. So she
- 50:25Speaker 3: didn't like me too much. I don't think, all right,
- 50:27Speaker 3: well Bill, you got anything?
- 50:31Speaker 8: Yeah, I uh you sure quick. I really hadn't thought
- 50:36Speaker 8: about this before, just and what you guys have been
- 50:39Speaker 8: talking about. And I think one of the one of
- 50:42Speaker 8: the great failures of Western medicine is having having one
- 50:51Speaker 8: thing that fixes everything that they don't. It seemed to
- 50:56Speaker 8: me they don't have the concept of the individuality of
- 51:00Speaker 8: their patients that were all different, we all require a
- 51:02Speaker 8: little different things a little bit. If they have one
- 51:05Speaker 8: kind of medicine and they use it for everybody, And so,
- 51:10Speaker 8: as I said, it seems to be one of the
- 51:12Speaker 8: one of the great failures of I suspect it comes
- 51:17Speaker 8: down to a financial issue, of money issue. They can't
- 51:21Speaker 8: go around making all of this kind of stuff for
- 51:24Speaker 8: all the different kinds of people. But if they're interested
- 51:28Speaker 8: in healthcare, it seems to me that that's really what
- 51:31Speaker 8: is necessary.
- 51:33Speaker 3: Yeah, you're so right, and what I find uh and
- 51:38Speaker 3: and Susy brought up a good point. There's not a
- 51:43Speaker 3: lot of times, not one thing that is the magic cure.
- 51:46Speaker 3: Sometimes there is, sometimes it's unbelievable, but most of the
- 51:50Speaker 3: time you've got to figure out which product. And then
- 51:56Speaker 3: what's even more important sometimes is the dosage. I may
- 52:01Speaker 3: give her the greatest thing in the world, but I
- 52:03Speaker 3: may not give enough or sometimes too much. You and
- 52:09Speaker 3: Susie both can relate to maybe too much with a
- 52:15Speaker 3: product like diaplex. We've all had that discussion and a
- 52:20Speaker 3: lot of times people will call me up and say, well,
- 52:23Speaker 3: I'm taking one of those. I said, that's not what
- 52:26Speaker 3: I told you to take, and they say, well, it's
- 52:29Speaker 3: set on the bottle. I said, no, what it's said
- 52:32Speaker 3: on the bottle is a generic telling you something. And
- 52:38Speaker 3: then it says are as directed, and I said, I
- 52:42Speaker 3: am here as directed. And we didn't do that for
- 52:46Speaker 3: a reason, because sometimes in the healing phase, we need
- 52:50Speaker 3: to kick things up a couple of notches, as Emerald
- 52:52Speaker 3: would say, and then we start backing off. Just like
- 52:56Speaker 3: when we were talking about adine therapy a little while ago,
- 52:59Speaker 3: that doctor was doing like fifty milligrams. That would blow
- 53:04Speaker 3: most people away. They would never think about that. But
- 53:07Speaker 3: them same people got to that spot because the iodine
- 53:13Speaker 3: had been added, which was a synthetic iodine to the
- 53:17Speaker 3: salt after the salt got stripped of all of its
- 53:20Speaker 3: minerals and sold the refineries and so they didn't have
- 53:24Speaker 3: good salt in their diet. Then they were told salt
- 53:26Speaker 3: was bad for them. So a lot of things that
- 53:29Speaker 3: kepture thyroid adrenals, pituitary hypothalamus over ease and testies healthy,
- 53:35Speaker 3: making hormones, the tools weren't there, the ingredients weren't there,
- 53:41Speaker 3: So you start putting this stuff back and it makes
- 53:45Speaker 3: a big difference. All right, we got a couple of
- 53:49Speaker 3: funny bill. I got one right here that I think
- 53:51Speaker 3: is probably your profession's fault. Yeah, I found I thought
- 53:56Speaker 3: about you when I read this as his shoes. Probably
- 54:00Speaker 3: gonna plead guilty too, but you know, I know how
- 54:03Speaker 3: you and her work together. Anyway, they did a study
- 54:07Speaker 3: and they found out that one in five women have
- 54:12Speaker 3: been diagnosed with anger issues. And what that proved to
- 54:19Speaker 3: them was that there were four of them out there
- 54:22Speaker 3: running around that had not been diagnosed. Shit, I like
- 54:28Speaker 3: that one. I like that one. All right. This is
- 54:33Speaker 3: every once in a while on the show. I have
- 54:35Speaker 3: to give you some relationship of ice. Probably not because
- 54:39Speaker 3: I'm very good at them, but I've made enough mistakes
- 54:42Speaker 3: for a lifetime. So here's a little relationship advice guys
- 54:49Speaker 3: that I'm sure will help you. And if not, well,
- 54:53Speaker 3: you know I tried. But if your wife or girlfriend
- 54:58Speaker 3: is hinting around that they want something with diamonds, buy
- 55:05Speaker 3: them a deck of cards. It's got diamonds and hearts.
- 55:12Speaker 3: Plus clubs don't mention the club, so they might use
- 55:15Speaker 3: one of them.
- 55:15Speaker 2: On you.
- 55:17Speaker 3: All right. A man gets on an airplane and he's
- 55:22Speaker 3: got six kids with them, and he gets the kids
- 55:25Speaker 3: all situated and he goes and sits down, and the
- 55:28Speaker 3: lady's sitting close to him said, sir, are all those
- 55:32Speaker 3: your children? He said, no, ma'am. He said, I work
- 55:37Speaker 3: for a condom company and those are customer complaints. All right,
- 55:46Speaker 3: here's this one's funny. He had to almost think about
- 55:49Speaker 3: it for about a second. The husband and the wife
- 55:52Speaker 3: are talking and they got six kids, and he noticed
- 55:58Speaker 3: that five of them very similar, looking like, acting like
- 56:03Speaker 3: there's five for sure that are different. And he said, honey,
- 56:08Speaker 3: Jimmy doesn't look or act like our other five. He said,
- 56:15Speaker 3: I hate to even ask you, but did you cheat
- 56:17Speaker 3: on me? And she pondered for a moment, and finally
- 56:22Speaker 3: she said, yes, I did, and I'm very sorry. And
- 56:27Speaker 3: he said, all right, who is Jimmy's father then? And
- 56:33Speaker 3: she said, you are, so we know she cheated a
- 56:43Speaker 3: few times, all right.
- 56:47Speaker 2: Well.
- 56:48Speaker 3: A woman goes to the fortune teller and pays the
- 56:54Speaker 3: lady and fortune teller pulls up her crystal ball and
- 56:59Speaker 3: she's looks at it and gasp in horror, and she said,
- 57:09Speaker 3: by the end of the next full moon, your husband
- 57:13Speaker 3: will be dead. And the woman says, I already know
- 57:17Speaker 3: that part. Will I be convicted?
- 57:20Speaker 9: Uh? Dang it?
- 57:26Speaker 3: All right. Grandma was telling her young granddaughter, So, when
- 57:33Speaker 3: I was your age and young, my boyfriend was a
- 57:37Speaker 3: soldier and he wrote me every single day. And the
- 57:45Speaker 3: granddaughter said, so was Grandpa that soldier? She said, no, honey,
- 57:51Speaker 3: he was the maleman. All right, No, that's funny. These
- 58:00Speaker 3: are all funny. I know everybody. Producer Steve probably fell
- 58:03Speaker 3: out of his chair and build the same I'm sure
- 58:07Speaker 3: I thought I heard it clunk, all right. So a
- 58:11Speaker 3: priest finds a dead pig on the road on his
- 58:15Speaker 3: way back to the church, and he pulls over and
- 58:20Speaker 3: she said, yes, it's definitely dead. So he calls the
- 58:24Speaker 3: police to let him know, and he gets a cop
- 58:30Speaker 3: that's kind of cocky, and the cop said, did you
- 58:33Speaker 3: give it its last rites? And the priest said, no,
- 58:38Speaker 3: I thought I'd better call it next to ken first. Oh,
- 58:46Speaker 3: all right, and then here's our last one of the day,
- 58:49Speaker 3: as Johnny Carson would do. Wife says, doctor told me
- 58:57Speaker 3: she's talking to the husband. She said, the doctor told me,
- 59:00Speaker 3: I need complete rests and I need to go for
- 59:05Speaker 3: a very long vacation like Australia, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, one
- 59:13Speaker 3: of them wonderful places. And she tells the husband, where
- 59:17Speaker 3: are you gonna take me? He said to another doctor,
- 59:22Speaker 3: all right, Bill, you got something up your sleeve for
- 59:28Speaker 3: a weekly topic. Yep, all right. Well when we come back,
- 59:35Speaker 3: we'll go right to that. We're almost at break time, now,
- 59:38Speaker 3: is he anything before we go to break?
- 59:41Speaker 15: No?
- 59:42Speaker 7: I didn't need jokes this time.
- 59:45Speaker 3: I'm so proud of you because last time you attacked
- 59:49Speaker 3: me with those evil, evil doctor jokes. And even if
- 59:55Speaker 3: I'm an evil doctor, I didn't want to hear all right,
- 59:58Speaker 3: what was I going to say? Oh? You know, I
- 1:00:01Speaker 3: used to like Christmas and Thanksgiving, especially Thanksgiving because you
- 1:00:07Speaker 3: had all the same food and family and friends and
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: if you like watching football or whatever you do, it
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: was a nice time. It was a break from the
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: crazy week and all the stuff. And then Christmas was
- 1:00:22Speaker 3: always more difficult because you got to buy gifts. But
- 1:00:26Speaker 3: this last week, since our last show, I've had to
- 1:00:30Speaker 3: deal with some unpleasantries about things like gifts and unappreciated things,
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: and just made me think, you know what, don't buy
- 1:00:42Speaker 3: anything no more, so I don't know. All right, we
- 1:00:47Speaker 3: are at break time, ladies and gentlemen. This is Doctor

- 1:03:11Speaker 13: Country was strong, back before else before dead now Moore.
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: Came along.

- 1:04:10Speaker 2: With no kind of chance for.
- 1:04:13Speaker 12: The flag of the livery fell a wish afod down.

- 1:04:47Speaker 12: Cove was still colder.
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: The joint.
- 1:04:51Speaker 12: It's a bad place to be.
- 1:04:58Speaker 3: It was back before Nick.
- 1:05:02Speaker 2: Was all on team.
- 1:05:08Speaker 3: All right, we are are back. That was the great
- 1:05:11Speaker 3: Merle Haggard. And I know a lot of people may
- 1:05:15Speaker 3: not like his twangy country, but I thought the words
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: of that song just really hit home on how the
- 1:05:22Speaker 3: country used to be kind of cool. Anyway, we are back.
- 1:05:27Speaker 3: Welcome back to Doctor Cooper's Natural Health Hours. Susie Bill,
- 1:05:30Speaker 3: producer STEVEE behind the Curtain of Myself are here and
- 1:05:33Speaker 3: we're gonna go right to Wild Bill or resident head
- 1:05:36Speaker 3: Doctor for his weekly topic. Take it Away, Bill.
- 1:05:41Speaker 8: You know that was the music part of that, the
- 1:05:46Speaker 8: backup band Haggard had had that from time to time
- 1:05:53Speaker 8: he would have a real different kind of sound, and
- 1:05:58Speaker 8: this is one of those times I thought that would
- 1:05:59Speaker 8: have just a real Of course it's fits the lyric,
- 1:06:04Speaker 8: but it was just a very unusual and very dramatic
- 1:06:09Speaker 8: kind of souve. Anyway, on with stuff. You mentioned having
- 1:06:15Speaker 8: problems with gifts and things. I solved that problem many
- 1:06:20Speaker 8: years ago. I don't give them anymore. It just takes
- 1:06:24Speaker 8: a lot of the hassle out of the time of year,
- 1:06:27Speaker 8: which is really what I wanted to talk about. You know,
- 1:06:30Speaker 8: if I'm want to give somebody something, I'll give it
- 1:06:32Speaker 8: to them any time of the year. I don't do
- 1:06:34Speaker 8: the other stuff. But one of the things that we
- 1:06:36Speaker 8: kind of touched on last week, and I've certainly been
- 1:06:41Speaker 8: experiencing it more the past few days, is it's just
- 1:06:46Speaker 8: the stress that's involved with it. We talked some weeks
- 1:06:48Speaker 8: ago about seasonal seasonal stress, how some people don't do
- 1:06:53Speaker 8: well with the change of seasons and it causes a
- 1:06:56Speaker 8: lot of anxiety and a lot of difficulty and in
- 1:07:01Speaker 8: their their daily living habits. And uh, certainly thinking about
- 1:07:10Speaker 8: just the different kinds of stress that we've got, that
- 1:07:14Speaker 8: seasonal seasonal stress is an important one, and it kind
- 1:07:22Speaker 8: of comes together. These are the other two kinds of
- 1:07:26Speaker 8: stress kind of all fit together at this time of year,
- 1:07:29Speaker 8: the midwinter. The midwinter, which was the holiday of its own,
- 1:07:37Speaker 8: was always always a mixture of things and really usually stressful,
- 1:07:46Speaker 8: and stressful is again just the kind of of anxiety
- 1:07:51Speaker 8: about things we have, schedule changes, anytime any kind of
- 1:07:55Speaker 8: change occurs in our life that produces stress, whether it's
- 1:08:00Speaker 8: depression or anxiety or what is that kind of what
- 1:08:08Speaker 8: I call situational stress that has to do kind of
- 1:08:13Speaker 8: with specific events that may happen. We may get a
- 1:08:16Speaker 8: call from our bank saying that somebody stole all the
- 1:08:19Speaker 8: money out of our account, and that causes a little
- 1:08:22Speaker 8: bit of stress. Things that happen that we don't look
- 1:08:25Speaker 8: forward to. But the kind that I'm really talking about
- 1:08:29Speaker 8: this time is this time of years, is what I
- 1:08:32Speaker 8: call an event related stress. It's an event that happens,
- 1:08:39Speaker 8: usually with some regularity. We know it's coming up, we
- 1:08:46Speaker 8: can look forward to it, but you know there stress
- 1:08:50Speaker 8: can have positive aspects with anticipation. There's a difference between
- 1:08:56Speaker 8: anticipating something and dreading something, and both of both are stressful.
- 1:09:00Speaker 8: But the kinds of things that keep recurring in our
- 1:09:06Speaker 8: lives are are stuff like when mother in law comes
- 1:09:12Speaker 8: to visit for about three weeks, produces a little stress.
- 1:09:16Speaker 8: We know she's going to be here, we start wrapping up,
- 1:09:19Speaker 8: We start becoming defensive. Birthdays, anniversaries, holidays where family get together.
- 1:09:27Speaker 8: People don't see each other all that time, but on
- 1:09:31Speaker 8: particular holidays and they all come up and show up
- 1:09:34Speaker 8: and things change and distress levels wrap up pretty hard.
- 1:09:42Speaker 8: Midwinter Christmas seems to be sort of the granddaddy of
- 1:09:47Speaker 8: them all. We know, I know people who who you know,
- 1:09:53Speaker 8: start in January start buying stuff for the next Christmas. Always,
- 1:09:59Speaker 8: you know, got all that junk line around the house
- 1:10:01Speaker 8: all year long. I don't if that okay, some people
- 1:10:05Speaker 8: work that way. But the Christmas season always is a
- 1:10:11Speaker 8: family thing. There's there's meals to prepare, their people stopping in,
- 1:10:15Speaker 8: family get together, really stressful stuff. For years, I would
- 1:10:21Speaker 8: used to intentionally go to the mall about a week
- 1:10:24Speaker 8: before Christmas and just watch the people. Didn't see very
- 1:10:30Speaker 8: many happy faces. I saw frows. I saw eyebrows that
- 1:10:34Speaker 8: were trying to touch each other across the top of
- 1:10:36Speaker 8: their nose. And I saw people being irritable and angry
- 1:10:41Speaker 8: and just all stressed out. And I thought, well, this
- 1:10:46Speaker 8: is weird. You know, Christmas is supposed to be sort
- 1:10:48Speaker 8: of a epy time of year. What when does that?
- 1:10:52Speaker 8: When does that part happen? It's it's a thing that
- 1:10:58Speaker 8: the anticipation that builds up for all the stuff that
- 1:11:00Speaker 8: we've got to do. We've got to buy presents for
- 1:11:02Speaker 8: this person or that person. What if they don't like it,
- 1:11:04Speaker 8: I better take this back because they want, and it
- 1:11:07Speaker 8: goes on and on and on, and how do we
- 1:11:11Speaker 8: how do we kind of manage to cope with that?
- 1:11:14Speaker 8: It's says return already trying to return to some sense
- 1:11:18Speaker 8: of balance. You talked about hormonal balance, or as they
- 1:11:23Speaker 8: say in the Midwest, hormonal balance, but hormonal balance, how
- 1:11:28Speaker 8: do we how do we re establish a sense of
- 1:11:31Speaker 8: emotional balance? And in stressful situations, stressful times like Cristmas,
- 1:11:39Speaker 8: like birthdays. It seems like the birthdays that are on
- 1:11:44Speaker 8: the decades, like fifty, sixty, seventy, you know, the more
- 1:11:50Speaker 8: decades or as I used to pronounce it, the decades,
- 1:11:53Speaker 8: the more decades that we have, the more that kind
- 1:11:57Speaker 8: of There seems to be some need to make a
- 1:12:02Speaker 8: big deal out of the fact that we've reached ninety
- 1:12:06Speaker 8: or one hundred. And I've never known anybody who was
- 1:12:09Speaker 8: getting roast close to one hundred who was just a
- 1:12:12Speaker 8: happy camper. I think Dick van Dyck might be the
- 1:12:14Speaker 8: only exception I've ever heard of, but I think he'd
- 1:12:17Speaker 8: being happy no matter what. How do we how do
- 1:12:21Speaker 8: we manage these kinds of things? Well, back to Christmas,
- 1:12:23Speaker 8: I think if first of all, you know, we can't
- 1:12:27Speaker 8: fix a problem until we until we understand there's a
- 1:12:30Speaker 8: problem and a lot of people with stress which builds
- 1:12:34Speaker 8: up over a period of time, particularly this kind of stress,
- 1:12:37Speaker 8: this anticipatory stress. It builds up over a period of time,
- 1:12:41Speaker 8: and our lifestyle begins to change, our our schedule begins
- 1:12:46Speaker 8: to change. We have more running around to do. I've
- 1:12:50Speaker 8: I made the mistake yesterday of stopping by a place
- 1:12:56Speaker 8: where I buy bird seed. Yeah, a parking lot was packed. Literally,
- 1:13:05Speaker 8: I said, Okay, I guess I'll come back some after Christmas.
- 1:13:08Speaker 8: But it's people just start to be getting crazy about
- 1:13:13Speaker 8: this kind of stuff. And if we can realize that
- 1:13:17Speaker 8: we have changed our routine and our schedule, if we've
- 1:13:21Speaker 8: changed our as you used to call of our ad
- 1:13:24Speaker 8: ls or activities of daily living, if we can recognize
- 1:13:28Speaker 8: that we have altered that, and that begins to give
- 1:13:32Speaker 8: us the opportunity to say, Okay, I need I need
- 1:13:35Speaker 8: to stop this for a little bit and find some
- 1:13:39Speaker 8: sense of of joy, the satisfaction of uh of goodness
- 1:13:50Speaker 8: about getting ready for certainly in the Christian ethics, the
- 1:13:56Speaker 8: second most important Christian holiday of the year, and how
- 1:14:00Speaker 8: do how do we re establish that sense of joy
- 1:14:04Speaker 8: and again isolating the problem, recognizing that I've changed my
- 1:14:09Speaker 8: routine and my way of doing things, and I need
- 1:14:12Speaker 8: to reassert a sense of control. Dealing with a couple
- 1:14:22Speaker 8: of friends who have very ancient parents, and there's sort
- 1:14:29Speaker 8: of impatience that these friends have with these elderly folks,
- 1:14:34Speaker 8: because these these folks are irrable, and they're crabby, and
- 1:14:37Speaker 8: they're they're angry about a lot of stuff, and it's
- 1:14:42Speaker 8: because they've lost every sense of control over almost everything
- 1:14:47Speaker 8: in their life. These old folks do. They have to go.
- 1:14:51Speaker 8: They're living in a in an assistant living place. They
- 1:14:55Speaker 8: have to go eat at a certain time, they have
- 1:14:57Speaker 8: to go to do these activities a certain time, they
- 1:14:59Speaker 8: have to go. The doctor is certain. They have no
- 1:15:02Speaker 8: sense of autonomy, they have no sense of self. Well,
- 1:15:06Speaker 8: we all experience some level of that when we get
- 1:15:10Speaker 8: stressed out. We're feeling overwhelmed. And one of the most
- 1:15:18Speaker 8: effective ways that I used to try and get people
- 1:15:22Speaker 8: to get a handle on was take your control back.
- 1:15:28Speaker 8: You gave it away, take it back, put a little
- 1:15:32Speaker 8: space in your life, sit back from what you have
- 1:15:34Speaker 8: to do and just do something that you want to do,
- 1:15:40Speaker 8: and sometimes not doing stuff that you have to do
- 1:15:44Speaker 8: house this being something that you want to do. It's
- 1:15:48Speaker 8: the naughtiness in us all, and it's all the part
- 1:15:51Speaker 8: of our childhood that we maintain. We all have to
- 1:15:56Speaker 8: occasionally just buck the system and back off and take
- 1:16:02Speaker 8: a breath and not get so caught up in this
- 1:16:11Speaker 8: energy black hole that seems to happen at this time
- 1:16:15Speaker 8: of year. You know, another I'd say, another week, we're
- 1:16:19Speaker 8: going to have the shortest day of the year. The
- 1:16:21Speaker 8: days are going to get to be a long bit longer,
- 1:16:24Speaker 8: a little longer, and it's all downhill to twenty thiry June, Okay,
- 1:16:29Speaker 8: when we switch around again. But the thing that always
- 1:16:35Speaker 8: it was amusing to me was that when I lived
- 1:16:37Speaker 8: in Minnesota, was it, Yeah, we go, we go past
- 1:16:40Speaker 8: the winter solstice, and the days are going to get longer.
- 1:16:44Speaker 8: But the coldest days in Minnesota, or in January and February,
- 1:16:51Speaker 8: as we've kind of crossed that hump at the year
- 1:16:55Speaker 8: it's colder.
- 1:16:56Speaker 3: I didn't.
- 1:16:57Speaker 8: I never seemed right to it. You know, we should
- 1:16:58Speaker 8: begin to get a little warm where as the days
- 1:17:00Speaker 8: get get lower. But its re establishing a sense of
- 1:17:05Speaker 8: control over over our activities, over what we have to do.
- 1:17:10Speaker 8: You know, if we can't find the right gift for somebody,
- 1:17:14Speaker 8: or if I can't find a turkey that's big enough
- 1:17:16Speaker 8: to cook for twenty people or whatever, we just need
- 1:17:22Speaker 8: to take a breath and get back. So I think
- 1:17:26Speaker 8: that I think douk was was was right. Just it's
- 1:17:31Speaker 8: just don't give anybody anything this year, you know, it's
- 1:17:34Speaker 8: just back off of it. Ay, right there you go?
- 1:17:40Speaker 3: Yeah, good stuff. Well, you know, I think I blame
- 1:17:46Speaker 3: the adults for making stuff so stressful at Christmas time,
- 1:17:52Speaker 3: especially like I gotta buy gift. It ought to be
- 1:17:57Speaker 3: by now you know each other well enough that if
- 1:18:01Speaker 3: there's something they really like or would need or whatever,
- 1:18:06Speaker 3: it's simple. And some people have gotten smart and they
- 1:18:11Speaker 3: decided that everybody puts a name in the hat, and
- 1:18:15Speaker 3: you pull one name out and you buy for that
- 1:18:18Speaker 3: one person. And that keeps it simple. So there's a
- 1:18:21Speaker 3: lot of ways to make it better. I choose drinking
- 1:18:26Speaker 3: that helps, and a good cigar. But I've seen this
- 1:18:33Speaker 3: year and this last week in particular, or the last month,
- 1:18:38Speaker 3: I should say some things that just made me say,
- 1:18:42Speaker 3: you know what, other than my immediate house, I'm not
- 1:18:48Speaker 3: buying for anybody that doesn't live here. Because the things
- 1:18:55Speaker 3: that you are, they say things like, well, would you
- 1:19:03Speaker 3: like a food box or shirts or something. If it's
- 1:19:07Speaker 3: something you really don't need, I think it's a waste.
- 1:19:12Speaker 3: That's a nice way to ask somebody, and then they
- 1:19:14Speaker 3: don't mean it that way when you question them. And
- 1:19:17Speaker 3: then if you know somebody who's kind of in need. Now, granted,
- 1:19:22Speaker 3: I'm on a pretty tight budget and pretty fixed income,
- 1:19:28Speaker 3: and I'm not. If I was a lot smarter young
- 1:19:31Speaker 3: a long time ago, I'd have saved a lot more
- 1:19:34Speaker 3: money and i'd have life a lot easier. But I didn't,
- 1:19:38Speaker 3: and we learned and move on. But there was people
- 1:19:42Speaker 3: in the family that I thought, you know, they're struggling,
- 1:19:48Speaker 3: let's try to help a little bit. And instead of
- 1:19:51Speaker 3: them trying to have to buy all that stuff and
- 1:19:55Speaker 3: cook a meal, you got places like Honey Bake Cam
- 1:20:00Speaker 3: and Logan's Farm and different places that will put a
- 1:20:04Speaker 3: package together and you got a whole meal. And the
- 1:20:09Speaker 3: first time I did that trying to help, and I
- 1:20:14Speaker 3: preferred if they didn't know it was me, but I
- 1:20:16Speaker 3: had to let them know because I got to make
- 1:20:18Speaker 3: sure they know it's out there to go pick it up.
- 1:20:22Speaker 3: But I think the best, the best charity. Nobody needs
- 1:20:25Speaker 3: to know what you do. But anyway, because it was
- 1:20:29Speaker 3: a honeybake Ham company, we thought we'll do a ham
- 1:20:35Speaker 3: this time, even though the tradition on Thanksgiving is a turkey. Well,
- 1:20:41Speaker 3: they let me know about it real quick. I would
- 1:20:45Speaker 3: have preferred the turkey. Oh, I said, so that's that's
- 1:20:50Speaker 3: pretty nice. Thank you. I'll make a note of that.
- 1:20:54Speaker 3: And then I decided, all right, it's only twice the
- 1:20:58Speaker 3: whole year. We'll do the turkey for Christmas and save
- 1:21:04Speaker 3: them because it's a lot of work to cook all
- 1:21:06Speaker 3: that and do it yourself. And so I let them know,
- 1:21:10Speaker 3: by the way, we sent you a meal for Christmas. Oh,
- 1:21:16Speaker 3: why did you do that? And you know how much
- 1:21:19Speaker 3: work that is for me to have to do the turkey?
- 1:21:21Speaker 3: I said, it's a turkey breast from honeybake Ham. All
- 1:21:26Speaker 3: you have to do is warm it up. Then they said, well,
- 1:21:31Speaker 3: you don't know how much work that is for me
- 1:21:33Speaker 3: to have to warm stuff up. I said, as opposed
- 1:21:37Speaker 3: to normally you would have to buy the groceries cook stuff.
- 1:21:42Speaker 3: I don't think you're looking at it very well. And
- 1:21:46Speaker 3: then they said, well, I'm complaining because you do this
- 1:21:49Speaker 3: crap too much? I said, really, two times in three
- 1:21:55Speaker 3: hundred and sixty five days. Yeah, And they said, well,
- 1:21:58Speaker 3: why do you do it? I said, you know, I'm
- 1:22:00Speaker 3: starting to ask myself that why do that? Why do
- 1:22:04Speaker 3: something trying to be nice?
- 1:22:08Speaker 8: Yeah?
- 1:22:08Speaker 3: So uh, as of this week, I'm not doing.
- 1:22:14Speaker 8: That no more.
- 1:22:17Speaker 3: It's tough enough on my financial instability. And then to
- 1:22:23Speaker 3: have somebody complain, I mean complain because you didn't have
- 1:22:27Speaker 3: the turkey. Then complain when you get the turkey that
- 1:22:30Speaker 3: you know, And the first thought was not thank you,
- 1:22:32Speaker 3: this is wonderful. It's I'm gonna have to do all
- 1:22:36Speaker 3: that work. And I said, I didn't get you a
- 1:22:38Speaker 3: whole turkey. So it just just kind of frustrating. Like
- 1:22:43Speaker 3: I said, this is why I think the greatest charities
- 1:22:47Speaker 3: nobody needs to know it was you. Then you don't
- 1:22:50Speaker 3: have all the headaches, and the niceness of it can
- 1:22:56Speaker 3: still ring through and you don't need to be patted
- 1:22:59Speaker 3: on the back that you did something good for somebody.
- 1:23:02Speaker 3: But when you try to do things for people that
- 1:23:05Speaker 3: are struggling and they give you a hell, then that
- 1:23:09Speaker 3: tells you not to do it. I saw a thing
- 1:23:12Speaker 3: A guy asked the guy recently on the street corner.
- 1:23:16Speaker 3: How much money you make standing out here every day?
- 1:23:19Speaker 3: He said, oh, it depends four or five hundred bucks.
- 1:23:23Speaker 3: And the guy said, he's going to be pissed when
- 1:23:25Speaker 3: he feelind's out. I'm going to be here tomorrow. All right,
- 1:23:30Speaker 3: anything Susie on what Bill was said? All right? What
- 1:23:34Speaker 3: I rambled on?
- 1:23:36Speaker 9: Yeah, that.
- 1:23:40Speaker 7: Just cheps my hide. Someone would be that ungracious. No,
- 1:23:46Speaker 7: I wouldn't.
- 1:23:48Speaker 9: I wouldn't send him a turkey or a ham. I
- 1:23:53Speaker 9: might send him the cheapest loaf of white bread and
- 1:23:56Speaker 9: the cheap store brand of peanut butter next Christmas.
- 1:24:04Speaker 8: You know what.
- 1:24:05Speaker 9: One of the things that I'm seeing, because you know,
- 1:24:08Speaker 9: I like to do crafts, I like to decorate. I
- 1:24:12Speaker 9: have an eye for design. And one of the things
- 1:24:16Speaker 9: that I'm seeing is going back to traditional whether you're
- 1:24:23Speaker 9: decorating your tree, your home, your mantle, whatever. And I'm
- 1:24:27Speaker 9: seeing a nice trend going back to traditional elements like
- 1:24:35Speaker 9: handmade ornaments, which has been a part of our life
- 1:24:39Speaker 9: since I was a child, whether it was you know,
- 1:24:43Speaker 9: star foam balls and yarn and Elmer's glue, you know,
- 1:24:50Speaker 9: or glitter. And I just think it's thrilling A friend
- 1:24:54Speaker 9: said that she was talking to her grandson and I
- 1:24:58Speaker 9: think he's like seven, maybe eight, and she was saying
- 1:25:04Speaker 9: something about, you know, doing the tree different, and she
- 1:25:09Speaker 9: said he put his hands on his hips and said, Nana,
- 1:25:15Speaker 9: I like your traditional tree like.
- 1:25:17Speaker 7: You always do every year.
- 1:25:20Speaker 9: So don't take these children for granted that you're going
- 1:25:26Speaker 9: to go out and spend a couple of hundred dollars
- 1:25:28Speaker 9: on a new theme, one of the most disgusting themes.
- 1:25:35Speaker 9: And I'm sorry if I'm offending someone, but it's the grinch.
- 1:25:40Speaker 9: I mean, why why are you putting that stuff on
- 1:25:45Speaker 9: your tree or decorating your home or your front yard
- 1:25:48Speaker 9: with it. People want tradition. And you know, I made over.
- 1:25:57Speaker 9: I didn't even make them from scratch, made over some ornaments,
- 1:26:01Speaker 9: glass ornaments that were I don't know, ten twenty years old,
- 1:26:05Speaker 9: and they were scratched and they looked yuck, and I
- 1:26:08Speaker 9: didn't like the color anymore. And I'm like, okay, I'm
- 1:26:12Speaker 9: gonna get some silver metallic spray paint. And I popped
- 1:26:17Speaker 9: the caps off and I took them outside and stuck
- 1:26:20Speaker 9: skewers into the back end the bottom of a box
- 1:26:23Speaker 9: and put the glass balls up there and spray paint,
- 1:26:26Speaker 9: and I thought, hmm, okay, that's nice, but let's add
- 1:26:31Speaker 9: some like snow make it look like snow on the top.
- 1:26:35Speaker 7: Well, guess what.
- 1:26:39Speaker 9: What's that but soak salt stuff. I don't even remember
- 1:26:45Speaker 9: the name epsin salt. So I put I painted some
- 1:26:49Speaker 9: some glue on and I sprinkled epsin salt on it.
- 1:26:53Speaker 7: Wow, it looked like snow.
- 1:26:54Speaker 9: So okay, there's cheap. That's really cheap, and it's fun.
- 1:27:00Speaker 9: Tradition I think is coming back. And then this same
- 1:27:04Speaker 9: friend with the grandson who sat her straight. They don't
- 1:27:09Speaker 9: go through a headache, and she may have a you know,
- 1:27:14Speaker 9: a big a meal, but she likes doing that. But
- 1:27:18Speaker 9: for like Christmas, even Christmas Day, they everyone brings their
- 1:27:23Speaker 9: favorite snack foods, dips, you know whatever. And she's got
- 1:27:29Speaker 9: a whole, big, old, huge table of games set out
- 1:27:33Speaker 9: and they play games. And this year they decided we're
- 1:27:38Speaker 9: not doing gifts except for the grandkids and kept it simple.
- 1:27:43Speaker 7: So there is a way.
- 1:27:46Speaker 9: If you want to to have Christmas be memorable and
- 1:27:50Speaker 9: be simple and make it be about It's so cliche
- 1:27:57Speaker 9: to say Jesus is the reason for the season, but.
- 1:28:04Speaker 7: That's what it's about in this hustle and bustle and
- 1:28:07Speaker 7: then at the mall and then.
- 1:28:11Speaker 9: Buying crap just so you have something to wrap and
- 1:28:16Speaker 9: give to someone that they're not interested in. I don't.
- 1:28:24Speaker 9: I don't like that. I'm very very particular in what
- 1:28:28Speaker 9: I give and things people need that they won't just
- 1:28:33Speaker 9: go out and buy for themselves or you know, the
- 1:28:37Speaker 9: occasional want. So that's that's my belief on it, and
- 1:28:43Speaker 9: that's how I think you simplify it. And if anyone
- 1:28:48Speaker 9: is crappy about a gift, they don't get gifts in
- 1:28:52Speaker 9: the future.
- 1:28:55Speaker 3: I love it Bill anything.
- 1:29:00Speaker 8: Yeah, a lots. I said a lot of a lot
- 1:29:03Speaker 8: of important stuff there. And I think this quest for
- 1:29:08Speaker 8: traditionality is it's really, I hope, kind of coming back.
- 1:29:16Speaker 8: I think we've been sold to build it goes over
- 1:29:17Speaker 8: the last twenty forty years. Who knows about Christmas and
- 1:29:21Speaker 8: what we want is something that returns us to that
- 1:29:28Speaker 8: very simple good feeling that we kind of remember from
- 1:29:32Speaker 8: when we were kids, when families got together and it
- 1:29:36Speaker 8: was the family getting together. It wasn't all this stuff.
- 1:29:40Speaker 8: It was it was that tradition of warmth and caring.
- 1:29:46Speaker 9: So it was funny because we had to rearrange the
- 1:29:51Speaker 9: living room because.
- 1:29:54Speaker 7: I don't have really tall ceilings. And I thought I
- 1:29:57Speaker 7: got the right size tree, but no, if you put it,
- 1:30:01Speaker 7: we have the slightly vaulted ceiling.
- 1:30:04Speaker 9: So if I put it up in the traditional spot
- 1:30:08Speaker 9: in front of the window, you couldn't put a tree
- 1:30:10Speaker 9: top on it. And I said, well, do y'all remember
- 1:30:13Speaker 9: when we had that nine foot tree way back in
- 1:30:16Speaker 9: the day. We used to turn, you know, the sectional
- 1:30:20Speaker 9: sofa and.
- 1:30:22Speaker 7: Go this way and that way with it.
- 1:30:23Speaker 9: We can do the same thing because now we have
- 1:30:26Speaker 9: two sofas instead of a sectional, and so we did that,
- 1:30:30Speaker 9: and that was an.
- 1:30:33Speaker 7: Opportunity to get a couple of things out that.
- 1:30:39Speaker 9: Weren't necessary, a couple of small pieces of furniture.
- 1:30:43Speaker 8: So there was this.
- 1:30:46Speaker 7: And I guarantee you it was a Walmart.
- 1:30:51Speaker 9: CD and the HS Yes, I said that, Stephen, And
- 1:30:56Speaker 9: it's a rack. And it was probably five or ten
- 1:31:00Speaker 9: bucks at the Walmart many years ago. And we do
- 1:31:03Speaker 9: have a Blu ray a DVD player and I like it,
- 1:31:09Speaker 9: I don't use it often. So my son said, why
- 1:31:12Speaker 9: can't we get rid of this cabinet with all these
- 1:31:15Speaker 9: you know, DVDs on it and I said, okay, but
- 1:31:21Speaker 9: there's one that I want set right here. Just leave
- 1:31:26Speaker 9: it right here, and he said, well, which one. I said,
- 1:31:30Speaker 9: It's a Wonderful Life And he said, we can watch
- 1:31:34Speaker 9: that online for free, and I said, no, I want
- 1:31:39Speaker 9: my It's a Wonderful Life CD and I'm gonna put
- 1:31:43Speaker 9: it in the CD player. So it's silly things, silly
- 1:31:48Speaker 9: things like I watched that, or we watched that every
- 1:31:52Speaker 9: year on DVD, when yeah, I could probably go to
- 1:31:55Speaker 9: Amazon Prime and download and watch it whatever.
- 1:32:00Speaker 2: I love it, you know.
- 1:32:02Speaker 3: To me, that's the big thing is tradition. I remember
- 1:32:06Speaker 3: as a kid, we went to my mom's parents' house
- 1:32:11Speaker 3: Christmas Day early, and we went to my dad's parents'
- 1:32:16Speaker 3: house in the evening because they drink and football and
- 1:32:20Speaker 3: all that stuff and the other ones didn't. Not ever
- 1:32:24Speaker 3: in my whole life did I see an argument or
- 1:32:30Speaker 3: everybody not having a good time. It was a wonderful
- 1:32:34Speaker 3: tradition and I enjoyed it. So I love tradition. But unfortunately,
- 1:32:41Speaker 3: as your kids get a little older, even though I
- 1:32:45Speaker 3: thought we instilled tradition in them, it didn't last too long.
- 1:32:51Speaker 3: But I like that tradition, and I think you said
- 1:32:53Speaker 3: it well, Bill, you're trying to go back to your
- 1:32:57Speaker 3: memories and keep them alive and hand that tradition down
- 1:33:02Speaker 3: to the next. And this world we're in right now
- 1:33:07Speaker 3: has become too commercial, too political, and you know what's
- 1:33:13Speaker 3: that old line, stop the world? I want to get off.
- 1:33:16Speaker 3: I'm there, all right, Sissy, got a recipe up your sleeve.
- 1:33:23Speaker 7: Yeah, I've got one, all right.

- 1:38:14Speaker 3: While, all right. We are backs, Susie. That was another
- 1:38:23Speaker 3: one of that new old blues that you and I
- 1:38:26Speaker 3: were talking about, and we like I hope everybody likes it.
- 1:38:31Speaker 3: What'd you say?
- 1:38:32Speaker 7: I said, it's fabulous.
- 1:38:33Speaker 2: I love it.
- 1:38:35Speaker 3: Yeah. He does a good job, and it seems like
- 1:38:37Speaker 3: it's just one guy and whoever he's got playing with
- 1:38:40Speaker 3: him in the back, and it's funny. I never really
- 1:38:44Speaker 3: cared much for blues, but I heard this guy and
- 1:38:48Speaker 3: it just kind of some of his songs kind of
- 1:38:51Speaker 3: grabbed me. So I don't know. Anyway, It is that
- 1:38:56Speaker 3: time of the show Ladies and Gentlemen where we help
- 1:38:58Speaker 3: Susie Nay her company because the tequila and the tea
- 1:39:03Speaker 3: are always messing her up. But I'm pretty sure I
- 1:39:07Speaker 3: got this one right.
- 1:39:09Speaker 5: It is called.
- 1:39:11Speaker 3: Renewed and Done for you construction.
- 1:39:16Speaker 9: Okay, you're just scraping the bottom of the barrel. It's
- 1:39:21Speaker 9: actually renovation and design custom homes. We're in the Texas
- 1:39:27Speaker 9: Hill Country and if you go to doc crouper dot com,
- 1:39:31Speaker 9: go to their back page, scroll down and you'll see
- 1:39:35Speaker 9: a link pard me a link to our website and
- 1:39:40Speaker 9: we can be reached at eight three zero three seven seven.
- 1:39:44Speaker 7: Two three one.
- 1:39:46Speaker 3: Take it away, Susie.
- 1:39:49Speaker 9: Okay, I mean, who doesn't like cookie dough? And if
- 1:39:55Speaker 9: they don't like cookie dough, we probably can't be friendsh
- 1:40:00Speaker 9: But this is it's pretty.
- 1:40:03Speaker 7: Healthy for you if with one little tweak.
- 1:40:07Speaker 9: This is iron corn cookie dough bark, and there's a
- 1:40:13Speaker 9: lot of bark recipes out there.
- 1:40:15Speaker 7: You know, it's thin. Some of them, you know, have like.
- 1:40:23Speaker 9: Bacon brown sugar, which we use wholecane sugar, and it's
- 1:40:29Speaker 9: just a real thin, a thin little treat.
- 1:40:32Speaker 7: So half a cup of.
- 1:40:37Speaker 9: Unsalted butter soften, not melted, just soften.
- 1:40:41Speaker 7: And of course.
- 1:40:44Speaker 9: We're gonna have to tweak it on the brown sugar
- 1:40:46Speaker 9: and the granulated sugar.
- 1:40:48Speaker 7: Half. It calls for half a cup of brown.
- 1:40:51Speaker 9: Sugar, and you can easily replace that with the whole
- 1:40:57Speaker 9: raw horicane sugar. And then of course it's gotta throw
- 1:41:00Speaker 9: in the granulated sugar, the refined third of a cup. Again,
- 1:41:07Speaker 9: you can add replace both of those three tablespoons of milk,
- 1:41:12Speaker 9: teaspoons of salt, one and a third cups of all
- 1:41:16Speaker 9: purpose iron corn flour, and then a quarter of a
- 1:41:21Speaker 9: cup of the many chocolate chips, and I like they
- 1:41:27Speaker 9: enjoyed they're made with cane sugar. And then I had to, oh,
- 1:41:35Speaker 9: pardon me, I had to look this up. It's two
- 1:41:37Speaker 9: cups of sheragaldy. I never see that, right, chocolate dark
- 1:41:45Speaker 9: melting wafers. And I tell you what, this one, this
- 1:41:49Speaker 9: one blew my mind.
- 1:41:53Speaker 7: To start out. I know you have seen melting wafers.
- 1:41:58Speaker 9: They've been around forever, like almond bark. Sometimes it's white,
- 1:42:03Speaker 9: sometimes it's chocolate covered flavored.
- 1:42:09Speaker 7: Evidently this melts easier.
- 1:42:13Speaker 9: But the very first ingredient is cane sugar, and I'm like, okay, cool,
- 1:42:20Speaker 9: and it's got But the rest of the ingredients go south.
- 1:42:24Speaker 9: Vegetable oil, hydrogenated palm kernel and palm oil, glycerill, lacto esters,
- 1:42:36Speaker 9: non fat milk, cocoa processed with alkali cocoa again, soy lechic,
- 1:42:46Speaker 9: and salt. So I thought, no, I'm it would be
- 1:42:52Speaker 9: absolutely a sand for this stuff to touch on cornflour
- 1:42:57Speaker 9: in my opinion. So one of the things if you're
- 1:43:02Speaker 9: new to the show that we do is we take regular,
- 1:43:06Speaker 9: ordinary recipes.
- 1:43:07Speaker 7: Even your family recipes can't be approved. But I can't
- 1:43:14Speaker 7: quit yawning.
- 1:43:15Speaker 9: And so you can replace that two cups of Garret
- 1:43:24Speaker 9: Delli melting chocolate with two cups of the Enjoy chocolate chips.
- 1:43:33Speaker 9: I think there's another one out there, isn't it called Lily.
- 1:43:36Speaker 9: I think they have milk chocolate and they have dark chocolate,
- 1:43:39Speaker 9: So just do that so there's no real cooking involved here. Again,
- 1:43:46Speaker 9: another thing that's erroneous. They say to melt your chocolate
- 1:43:54Speaker 9: in a microwave, and it's too easy to take a
- 1:43:58Speaker 9: saucepan a glass bowl and put enough water in to
- 1:44:03Speaker 9: just touch the bottom of the glass bowl and you
- 1:44:05Speaker 9: got a double boiler and so in a large bowl.
- 1:44:13Speaker 7: Or you can do this in your stand mixer. It
- 1:44:15Speaker 7: doesn't matter.
- 1:44:16Speaker 9: You're gonna cream your butter and then your raw cocaine
- 1:44:19Speaker 9: sugar for like five minutes and it gets real nice
- 1:44:22Speaker 9: and light and fluffy. Then you're going to add your
- 1:44:25Speaker 9: milk your vanilla, which I think, no, how funny is that?
- 1:44:34Speaker 9: And I've been looking at this recipe on and off
- 1:44:36Speaker 9: all day, says vanilla. Okay, well, vanilla isn't listed in
- 1:44:41Speaker 9: the ingredients. So with the amount of ingredients I'm looking
- 1:44:45Speaker 9: at here, I would imagine talk about it, typo. It
- 1:44:50Speaker 9: would be a teaspoon of vanilla and and your salt
- 1:44:56Speaker 9: and then just combine it until it's you know, completely.
- 1:45:01Speaker 7: Well well mixed. And then at the end you're going to.
- 1:45:06Speaker 9: I think it's better to take if you're going to
- 1:45:09Speaker 9: use a stand mixer, Uh, take your bowl off when
- 1:45:12Speaker 9: you're through, put your chocolate chips in, and then just
- 1:45:14Speaker 9: fold them in with a special So take a cookie
- 1:45:19Speaker 9: sheet and line it with parchment paper, about about a
- 1:45:26Speaker 9: nine nine by twelve would be perfect. And then you're
- 1:45:30Speaker 9: going to take half of your chocolate and you're going
- 1:45:33Speaker 9: to spread that out kind of thin and then about
- 1:45:39Speaker 9: the eighth of an inch thickness, and then just put
- 1:45:42Speaker 9: it in the freezer for like five minutes and take
- 1:45:45Speaker 9: it out.
- 1:45:46Speaker 7: Then you're going to.
- 1:45:50Speaker 9: Spread that cookie dough kind of thin, and then you're.
- 1:45:55Speaker 8: Going to.
- 1:45:59Speaker 7: Well it does say you're going to remove the first layer.
- 1:46:05Speaker 9: I don't know that you have to spread that cookie
- 1:46:10Speaker 9: dough mixture on top of that chocolate layer that has
- 1:46:14Speaker 9: set up. If it cracks, it's no big deal because
- 1:46:17Speaker 9: you're going to do that in the end, and then
- 1:46:21Speaker 9: you're going to spread it with the remaining melted chocolate
- 1:46:27Speaker 9: over the cookie dot. So all of this is pretty thin,
- 1:46:31Speaker 9: and then put it in. I get cedar for Christmas
- 1:46:45Speaker 9: every year, y'all. I'm sorry, So put it back in
- 1:46:49Speaker 9: the freezer after you've spread that second layer of melted
- 1:46:53Speaker 9: chocolate on it, and then.
- 1:46:56Speaker 7: Until it's just completely.
- 1:46:58Speaker 8: Set up, and.
- 1:47:01Speaker 9: You could leave it there like if you wanted to
- 1:47:04Speaker 9: make it a couple of days before your partying your
- 1:47:07Speaker 9: Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, then take it out and
- 1:47:12Speaker 9: then you break it up into pieces and then put
- 1:47:16Speaker 9: it on a little platter and you have cookie though, bark.
- 1:47:25Speaker 9: So what I always do is I put this in
- 1:47:28Speaker 9: the comments section and the chat section of I Rumble,
- 1:47:35Speaker 9: which is by the way, doctor Cooper's Natural Health Hours,
- 1:47:40Speaker 9: and we should appreciate it if you went over and
- 1:47:44Speaker 9: gave us a follow.
- 1:47:48Speaker 7: And it doesn't cost anything, and.
- 1:47:53Speaker 9: We've got good information there in our chat sometimes and
- 1:47:57Speaker 9: in the comments.
- 1:48:00Speaker 3: Sounds good. Hey, last week when we were talking about yeast,
- 1:48:06Speaker 3: and you told me to buy the jar that was
- 1:48:08Speaker 3: red star, right yep, and it says active dry yeast
- 1:48:13Speaker 3: on it. Yeah, okay, I just wanted to make sure
- 1:48:17Speaker 3: I wrote down the right one because I've got one
- 1:48:20Speaker 3: batch left of that garlic bread and I'm gonna wait
- 1:48:25Speaker 3: and do it right with that other yeast and they
- 1:48:28Speaker 3: let it sit for an hour or if it needs to.
- 1:48:31Speaker 3: So what's that, susy, I'm sorry.
- 1:48:36Speaker 9: So if it has one packet, like I said when
- 1:48:40Speaker 9: we talked about this, two and a quarter teaspoons will
- 1:48:47Speaker 9: replace that packet.
- 1:48:49Speaker 3: Okay, teaspoon Bill, you got anything on that cookito recipe.
- 1:48:58Speaker 8: No, but was remembering when she was talking about having
- 1:49:05Speaker 8: low ceilings and Christmas trees. When I was a kid,
- 1:49:10Speaker 8: we wouldn't go We would of course go out and
- 1:49:11Speaker 8: get a tree at the Christmas tree lot, and it
- 1:49:16Speaker 8: always had to have about a foot top taken out
- 1:49:21Speaker 8: of the top of it, take it out to the
- 1:49:23Speaker 8: top of it because the ceilings wouldn't now for it.
- 1:49:26Speaker 8: So it was kind of brought back something I hadn't
- 1:49:28Speaker 8: thought about for several decades. And it was kind of
- 1:49:33Speaker 8: a fun deal because not only did the tree have
- 1:49:35Speaker 8: to get in there, but there was always an ornament
- 1:49:39Speaker 8: that went on that top, little stop sticking out of
- 1:49:43Speaker 8: the tree, and you had to have room in the city,
- 1:49:46Speaker 8: you had to have it up there, so you got
- 1:49:48Speaker 8: to cut the tree out.
- 1:49:50Speaker 3: Yeah. Ours always had an angel, this white angel, sticking
- 1:49:54Speaker 3: at the top, and I guess she had to be
- 1:49:58Speaker 3: at the top because she was close to Heaven.
- 1:50:00Speaker 2: I don't know, so.
- 1:50:05Speaker 3: Anybody that's familiar with heaven and Hell and believes in that,
- 1:50:11Speaker 3: and heaven's always considered to be way up there and
- 1:50:15Speaker 3: Hell way down there. Well, this this guy died and
- 1:50:20Speaker 3: he went to Hell, and he gets down there in
- 1:50:24Speaker 3: the Devil's checking him in and he said, wow, you
- 1:50:27Speaker 3: really screwed up. You did a lot of this and
- 1:50:31Speaker 3: that and that. And the guy looked at the devil
- 1:50:34Speaker 3: and he said, you know what, at least I'm not
- 1:50:37Speaker 3: a grown adult living in my father's basement. I thought
- 1:50:44Speaker 3: that was pretty good. All right, So, Susy, anything you
- 1:50:48Speaker 3: want to wrap up with.
- 1:50:53Speaker 7: Now, I'm guessing we'll have another another show. I looked
- 1:51:00Speaker 7: at the calendar and.
- 1:51:04Speaker 9: Because I was afraid maybe you had forgotten Grandma ran
- 1:51:08Speaker 9: over by a reindeer.
- 1:51:10Speaker 3: Oh no, she's still here. I got her.
- 1:51:12Speaker 9: So I looked at the calendar and I was like,
- 1:51:14Speaker 9: oh no, no, that's next week.
- 1:51:17Speaker 3: Yeah. Remember I also did one on Grandpaul ran over
- 1:51:24Speaker 3: Santa with his pickup truck for what he did to
- 1:51:27Speaker 3: Grandma on Christmas Eve.
- 1:51:30Speaker 9: There you go.
- 1:51:31Speaker 3: I don't know if I still got that. Trouble is
- 1:51:34Speaker 3: I write some of these things, and then I if
- 1:51:37Speaker 3: I don't save it like I sent you and Bill,
- 1:51:41Speaker 3: we wish you a Scroogey Christmas. But I lost my
- 1:51:44Speaker 3: copy of it. Oh but I thought that was pretty good.
- 1:51:49Speaker 3: So politics and all the craziness, Well, Bill, anything you
- 1:51:53Speaker 3: want to wrap things up? With I knew he was
- 1:51:59Speaker 3: gonna do that. You and Sissy must rehearse this before
- 1:52:04Speaker 3: the show bill's play.
- 1:52:08Speaker 8: It comes absolutely naturally, says he don't encourage him.
- 1:52:19Speaker 9: So and I'm searching my computer and it looks like
- 1:52:24Speaker 9: maybe I didn't. I didn't say screwgy Christmas.
- 1:52:29Speaker 3: Oh that's all right, and I can usually like I
- 1:52:32Speaker 3: told you, guys, that's if I knew how to put
- 1:52:35Speaker 3: music or the melody as they say with the words,
- 1:52:40Speaker 3: I would be a country Western number one chart topper
- 1:52:45Speaker 3: and pop chopper, and I'd be it. I'd be all
- 1:52:48Speaker 3: over it.
- 1:52:50Speaker 2: I have a.
- 1:52:54Speaker 3: I guess you would call him a half brother. Two
- 1:52:57Speaker 3: of them, one died that I discovered a few years
- 1:53:03Speaker 3: back that I had these brothers, and one of them
- 1:53:09Speaker 3: is very talented. He plays I think a few instruments,
- 1:53:13Speaker 3: but he's mostly playing an argon or keyboard or whatever
- 1:53:16Speaker 3: you call it. And he's written a few songs. Maybe
- 1:53:20Speaker 3: one of these days I'll pull one of them out.
- 1:53:23Speaker 3: He's the youngest of all of us, and I was
- 1:53:26Speaker 3: the oldest. But we have literally brother from a different
- 1:53:32Speaker 3: mother and we had the same father and kind of interesting.
- 1:53:38Speaker 3: So we had a middle brother that died the youngest
- 1:53:43Speaker 3: one is James. James, he's the one who does the music,
- 1:53:47Speaker 3: and he's about every week he's out playing a gig somewhere.
- 1:53:51Speaker 3: So it's kind of neat that there is some music
- 1:53:55Speaker 3: talent in the family, even if I can't write melody.
- 1:54:00Speaker 3: All right, guys, well anything at all, or we close
- 1:54:04Speaker 3: it up, Susy.
- 1:54:07Speaker 9: I got just I don't know about twenty minutes ago,
- 1:54:11Speaker 9: an email from Coffee and Tea Junkie. They're not a sponsor,
- 1:54:16Speaker 9: we wish they were, but they've got some pretty fabulous
- 1:54:23Speaker 9: flavors for Christmas. They've got a Christmas and a cup,
- 1:54:28Speaker 9: Cinnamon short Bread, crazy candy, Gingerbread, Irish cream, hickory, Christmas
- 1:54:35Speaker 9: Home for the Holidays. Now this is this is decalf
- 1:54:45Speaker 9: this one silent night. Maybe that's why it's the decaf
- 1:54:50Speaker 9: and a sipping whiskey. And then they've got the Twelve
- 1:54:54Speaker 9: Days of Christmas coffee collection.
- 1:54:56Speaker 7: So they got some pretty cool coffees over there for
- 1:54:59Speaker 7: the season.
- 1:55:01Speaker 3: Now, you know you're making Bill cringe talking about flavored coffee.
- 1:55:07Speaker 3: He's probably grinding his teeth right now. Bill, is Pete
- 1:55:17Speaker 3: your favorite coffee? Bill is Pete still your main coffee?
- 1:55:25Speaker 8: Yeah? Pretty much. Yeah, pretty much. Oh yeah, alternate that was,
- 1:55:34Speaker 8: but it was was bought out, I believe, by Craft,
- 1:55:40Speaker 8: and it doesn't seem to me to be quite the same.
- 1:55:45Speaker 3: Yeah, probably not. I was always impressed with the story
- 1:55:48Speaker 3: you told about Pete's before they sold them anywhere else,
- 1:55:53Speaker 3: that you call out there and they would grind it
- 1:55:57Speaker 3: special for you and send it to you in So
- 1:56:00Speaker 3: that's why I remember Pete's. I have some Pete Stark
- 1:56:04Speaker 3: roasts in one of my canisters. In there, I've got
- 1:56:08Speaker 3: like six different coffees because I like something different, you know,
- 1:56:13Speaker 3: So I'll try one today and one tomorrow. And that
- 1:56:17Speaker 3: Ezra that Susie and I were talking about. They've got
- 1:56:22Speaker 3: a few coffees and I've tried them and I liked everyone.
- 1:56:26Speaker 3: So but I don't put much in mind. I mean,
- 1:56:30Speaker 3: I put a little honey and I had some of
- 1:56:32Speaker 3: that MIC's hot honey that gives it a little kick
- 1:56:36Speaker 3: in the morning when you're waking up. So, but coffee
- 1:56:40Speaker 3: is a great, great thing. I've had heard people complain
- 1:56:44Speaker 3: before that people drink coffee, and I've felt sorry for them, right, yeah,
- 1:56:50Speaker 3: because it's a wonderful thing and they've been drinking I
- 1:56:54Speaker 3: always felt sorry for the cowboys and the people riding
- 1:57:00Speaker 3: cattle herds in the hot summer, and all they had
- 1:57:04Speaker 3: to drink was hot coffee. That had to be rough,
- 1:57:07Speaker 3: but at least it had coffee and it was a flavor.
- 1:57:11Speaker 3: But hot coffee out in the hot weather that's got
- 1:57:14Speaker 3: to be rough. So I can drink that coffee in
- 1:57:20Speaker 3: the summer and just start sweating. I can just feel
- 1:57:22Speaker 3: it from the hot coffee. All right, guys, will you
- 1:57:28Speaker 3: say something to.
- 1:57:28Speaker 9: The Yeah, I don't need any sweetener at all in
- 1:57:32Speaker 9: my coffee, just some half in half and I'm happy.
- 1:57:37Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, I put the honey because it's healthy, and
- 1:57:41Speaker 3: I am thoroughly convinced it's helped me not get a
- 1:57:44Speaker 3: lot of colds and flus since I started doing it.
- 1:57:49Speaker 3: And the hot honey from mics has even got jlapino
- 1:57:54Speaker 3: or something else going on, and I figure that's very
- 1:57:59Speaker 3: good to also kill bad guys. So a little bit
- 1:58:03Speaker 3: of that. But I can drink black coffee just fine.
- 1:58:06Speaker 3: You use half and half, you said, yeah, yeah, If
- 1:58:11Speaker 3: I put anything in there, it's the raw milk. Just
- 1:58:14Speaker 3: a little bit of that.
- 1:58:16Speaker 8: Though.
- 1:58:16Speaker 3: Do you put milk in your tea or coffee or anything.
- 1:58:21Speaker 8: Oh yeah, I do every once in a while. I
- 1:58:25Speaker 8: think I said somewhere ago, I'll get a little the
- 1:58:29Speaker 8: smallest canister of whipping cream I can. I put whooping
- 1:58:34Speaker 8: cream in there. I don't whip it, I just pour
- 1:58:36Speaker 8: the cream in there.
- 1:58:37Speaker 3: That's kind of cool. I never thought of that. I
- 1:58:42Speaker 3: know they got some a lot of natural creamers that
- 1:58:45Speaker 3: you can put in there now that are made from
- 1:58:47Speaker 3: good ingredients if people want to change things up, but
- 1:58:51Speaker 3: most people probably the tradition is there. You know, they've
- 1:58:54Speaker 3: already got it locked in and they're not going to
- 1:58:56Speaker 3: change all right. Well, I think are producer Steve, Susie Bill,
- 1:59:02Speaker 3: and ladies and gentlemen, all of you out there listening.
- 1:59:06Speaker 3: We're so grateful, honored, and this just such a pleasure
- 1:59:10Speaker 3: to do this and to know you guys take time
- 1:59:13Speaker 3: out of your schedule and listen. We're so grateful and
- 1:59:17Speaker 3: I hope you have fun. We do, and I know
- 1:59:21Speaker 3: you're probably falling out of your chairs from those fabulous
- 1:59:24Speaker 3: jokes and the great music. Anyway, it is that time
- 1:59:28Speaker 3: of night where I hope and pray that God will
- 1:59:32Speaker 3: bless you with health and happiness, keep your lives peaceful,
- 1:59:40Speaker 3: free and safe, and hopefully that you don't have all
- 1:59:44Speaker 3: the stress of the holidays. And if you do, it
- 1:59:48Speaker 3: is that time where I diagnose and prescribe good Scotch,
- 1:59:56Speaker 3: good cigars.
- 1:59:58Speaker 8: And good night, get a good night.
- 2:00:01Speaker 7: All did not every want to read less?
- 2:00:06Speaker 16: Seems the love I've known has always been the most
- 2:00:10Speaker 16: destructive kind. Guess that's why now I feel so old
- 2:00:17Speaker 16: before my time. Yesterday, when I was young, the taste
- 2:00:26Speaker 16: of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue.
- 2:00:31Speaker 5: I teased at length, as.
- 2:00:33Speaker 16: If it were a foolish game, the way that even
- 2:00:38Speaker 16: breathe may tease a candle flame. The thousand dreams I dreamed,
- 2:00:44Speaker 16: the splendid things I planned. I always built to last
- 2:00:50Speaker 16: on weekend, shifting sand. I lived by night and shunned
- 2:00:55Speaker 16: the naked light of day.
- 2:00:58Speaker 3: And only now I see how the
- 2:01:01Speaker 16: Years ran away yesterday when I was young, And so
- 2:01:09Speaker 16: many happy songs we're ready to be sung, so many
- 2:01:15Speaker 16: wild pleasures laying start fighting, and so much pain
