Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews you need to start
- 0:05Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to the Wes Carroll Morning Show.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, 29th day of September. I'm Wes. Thanks for
- 0:17Speaker 2: joining me. We are knocking on the door of October,
- 0:20Speaker 2: aren't we? Coming up ridiculously fast. I had a doctor's
- 0:25Speaker 2: appointment yesterday and I've got a mild procedure, but a
- 0:30Speaker 2: procedure scheduled in a couple of weeks. And they said,
- 0:34Speaker 2: oh yeah, they gave the date. And I was like,
- 0:37Speaker 2: that's like, it's two weeks from now. I can't, if
- 0:41Speaker 2: you hear like a date in mid-October and you go,
- 0:44Speaker 2: that's two weeks from now. What are we doing here?
- 0:47Speaker 2: How is this happening? But yes, it is. It's, I mean,
- 0:51Speaker 2: we're practically... We're practically in October. So here we go.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Just a couple of days left and October will fly
- 1:00Speaker 2: by because, you know, we're now weeks away from the
- 1:06Speaker 2: midterm elections. It's going to be an interesting midterm. I
- 1:12Speaker 2: don't know that anybody really knows where things are. We
- 1:15Speaker 2: hear one poll and then a few days later we
- 1:17Speaker 2: hear a different poll. It's really hard to gauge states
- 1:22Speaker 2: like Georgia. where we do the show from. We haven't
- 1:28Speaker 2: been able to figure out or understand polls for the
- 1:31Speaker 2: past several election cycles. There's only a handful of things
- 1:34Speaker 2: that we can be certain of in Georgia anymore. And
- 1:39Speaker 2: the most certain thing that we will know is that
- 1:44Speaker 2: on the night of the election, we're going to have
- 1:50Speaker 2: counties around the state are going to start, you know,
- 1:53Speaker 2: sending in their numbers, their final numbers, and Fulton County
- 1:58Speaker 2: will wait as long as possible to turn theirs in.
- 2:03Speaker 2: And there may be like a pipe, oh no, like
- 2:06Speaker 2: a pipe burst, and then you find out later, wait,
- 2:09Speaker 2: that didn't even happen. Or it may be, you know, hey,
- 2:13Speaker 2: a toilet overflowed or something, and then we're trying to
- 2:16Speaker 2: scramble around. So we have to keep this all open
- 2:18Speaker 2: a little bit later so we can go around and
- 2:23Speaker 2: get some homeless people, you know, that are kind of
- 2:26Speaker 2: near a polling area that have all registered under the
- 2:29Speaker 2: same church address. We're going to go get them and
- 2:33Speaker 2: then we're going to bring them in and they're going
- 2:34Speaker 2: to vote because they didn't get a chance to vote
- 2:36Speaker 2: because the toilet was overflowing. So we need extra time
- 2:40Speaker 2: to bring them in because we're seeing the results from
- 2:43Speaker 2: the other counties. Sorry, am I being too literal with
- 2:46Speaker 2: all of this? I know we're not supposed to say
- 2:48Speaker 2: that this is what's been happening for the past several elections,
- 2:51Speaker 2: but it's basically what's been happening in In the past
- 2:54Speaker 2: several elections. So we know that that's going to be
- 2:56Speaker 2: the case in Georgia. And then we also know that
- 3:00Speaker 2: we get told things that tend, in many cases, to
- 3:06Speaker 2: over-exaggerate the support on the left in some races. We
- 3:12Speaker 2: have had some elections where they did not over-exaggerate the
- 3:16Speaker 2: support on the left because... Apparently they went out and
- 3:21Speaker 2: they took like a thousand homeless people around the church
- 3:24Speaker 2: and they registered them to vote and gave the church
- 3:27Speaker 2: as the address. And then they went in and they
- 3:32Speaker 2: voted at the church. And that was the whole, we
- 3:36Speaker 2: had this whole thing about, you know, we had a
- 3:39Speaker 2: whole season of of the show Curb Your Enthusiasm. Look,
- 3:44Speaker 2: I'm a big Seinfeld fan. I like Larry David. I
- 3:47Speaker 2: think Curb Your Enthusiasm is a great show. But they
- 3:49Speaker 2: spent an entire season focused on the Georgia law that
- 3:54Speaker 2: said that you're not allowed to feed people or give
- 3:58Speaker 2: them water when they come to vote. And they made
- 4:03Speaker 2: a complete mockery of what the actual purpose of that was.
- 4:08Speaker 2: which was basically, you can't say that the toilet's overflowing
- 4:14Speaker 2: and then get a bus and find anyone who registered
- 4:17Speaker 2: to vote as far back as 2008, because, you know,
- 4:21Speaker 2: that was the Obama election. And they have a lot
- 4:24Speaker 2: of people, there were a lot of people on the
- 4:25Speaker 2: roll still for a long time that registered to vote
- 4:29Speaker 2: so they could be part of the Obama election. And
- 4:32Speaker 2: they wanted a chance to make history and vote for Obama.
- 4:37Speaker 2: And then they did, and then they never went back
- 4:39Speaker 2: to vote again. And then you get some other elections
- 4:42Speaker 2: where you say, it's close. We can keep the polls
- 4:47Speaker 2: open later for different excuses, like saying that the toilet overflowed,
- 4:52Speaker 2: or the pipes burst, or there was a fire, or whatever.
- 4:56Speaker 2: Just you can make up an excuse. There was a
- 4:59Speaker 2: cholera outbreak, and they had to keep it open later.
- 5:03Speaker 2: I don't know. There's still a mouse in the building.
- 5:06Speaker 2: Everybody screamed, ran out, and they had to keep the
- 5:09Speaker 2: polls open later. And then a bus would go around,
- 5:13Speaker 2: and it would just kind of go through neighborhoods and say, hey,
- 5:17Speaker 2: did you register to vote in 2008? Yes. Did you
- 5:21Speaker 2: vote yet this year? No. Get on the bus. We'll
- 5:25Speaker 2: give you some pizza and some beverages, and we'll take
- 5:28Speaker 2: you over to the polling center so you can vote,
- 5:30Speaker 2: and we'll bring you back. And that's not in the
- 5:34Speaker 2: spirit of the election. That's not really the whole purpose
- 5:39Speaker 2: of what Election Day is supposed to be. So, you know,
- 5:45Speaker 2: anything that you can do to kind of stall things
- 5:47Speaker 2: and then when people get taken off voter rolls because
- 5:50Speaker 2: they're not voting anymore, then, you know, people say, oh,
- 5:55Speaker 2: they're trying to pretend these people aren't even registered voters anymore. Sorry,
- 6:00Speaker 2: I've got to Little throat thing, having my hot beverage
- 6:04Speaker 2: as we go this morning. We are literally having a
- 6:06Speaker 2: hot beverage together this morning, if you're having yours. So
- 6:12Speaker 2: we can be sure that the polls are going to
- 6:16Speaker 2: be weird. They always are in Georgia. When I've seen
- 6:21Speaker 2: some polls that have shown that Rick Jackson has a
- 6:25Speaker 2: significant little, not a significant, but a lead in the
- 6:28Speaker 2: governor's race. you typically can add a few points to
- 6:33Speaker 2: the right, and it kind of is where things are. Typically,
- 6:39Speaker 2: but I don't know. I don't know where this is
- 6:41Speaker 2: going to go for this election. It's a strange period.
- 6:44Speaker 2: Normal midterms have a tendency to go in a certain direction.
- 6:49Speaker 2: You know, Republicans having control across the board, and then,
- 6:54Speaker 2: you know, you got a president that's just been in
- 6:56Speaker 2: now for two years, and you go, well, what's this typically...
- 7:00Speaker 2: is something that's going to shift in the other direction.
- 7:06Speaker 2: And we just don't know if that's really going to happen.
- 7:08Speaker 2: And we're starting to hear from some candidates that are
- 7:11Speaker 2: kind of like at least saying they're not quite so sure.
- 7:15Speaker 2: Some are trying to put up the front. Some are
- 7:17Speaker 2: trying to say we got this, but it's hard to say.
- 7:21Speaker 2: Some evidence that this may be the case. Sorry, and
- 7:26Speaker 2: I hate the sipping on, but you know what? We're
- 7:28Speaker 2: just doing this. We're doing this together this morning. As
- 7:33Speaker 2: I guess ABC's This Week on Sunday, Senator Mark Kelly
- 7:40Speaker 2: of Arizona, who's a Democrat, is planning a presidential run, apparently.
- 7:47Speaker 2: That's where things are heading, potentially. He's one of those
- 7:51Speaker 2: people that when we sit back and we go, okay,
- 7:55Speaker 2: let's just all be honest here. Kamala's going to run.
- 7:58Speaker 2: AOC's going to run. And we thought Gavin Newsom was
- 8:03Speaker 2: probably like a lock. Who's the big boy from Illinois?
- 8:12Speaker 2: We had a handful of people that seemed like they
- 8:14Speaker 2: were locks to run. And then Gavin Newsom did the, well,
- 8:18Speaker 2: I won't run against Kamala. And then a lot of
- 8:20Speaker 2: Kamala's people said that she's not going to run. So,
- 8:25Speaker 2: you know, it seemed like, you know, When Gavin Newsom,
- 8:29Speaker 2: who wants it as much or more than Hillary, I
- 8:31Speaker 2: don't know that anybody ever wanted it more than Hillary Clinton.
- 8:36Speaker 2: I just don't know. He wants it, though. Pritzker. I
- 8:42Speaker 2: don't know why I couldn't think of his name. The
- 8:44Speaker 2: big fella. He's tall. He's tall in stature. That's what
- 8:50Speaker 2: I mean. He's a tall guy. That's what I meant.
- 8:56Speaker 2: I'm not making fun of anybody's size. I got no
- 8:59Speaker 2: room to do that. None at all. He's five, nine, five,
- 9:04Speaker 2: eight and a half. If he's five, eight and a half,
- 9:09Speaker 2: I'm taller than he is. And I'm calling him a
- 9:11Speaker 2: big guy. Anyway, uh, he's just got a large head.
- 9:14Speaker 2: How about that? Can I just say that he's got
- 9:17Speaker 2: a big head? Um, so it seemed like we kind
- 9:22Speaker 2: of had an idea where it was going. And then
- 9:24Speaker 2: out of nowhere, we start hearing names like, uh, Senator
- 9:28Speaker 2: Jack Ossoff in Georgia. I know his name's not Jack,
- 9:31Speaker 2: but I don't care. I'm going to call him that.
- 9:35Speaker 2: We also have another name was, yeah, Mark Kelly. People said,
- 9:40Speaker 2: oh yeah, these two are going to be stars. They
- 9:44Speaker 2: don't have any stars. That's the first problem is they
- 9:46Speaker 2: don't have a single star on the left. For a while,
- 9:50Speaker 2: it seemed like Gavin Newsom had the chance to be
- 9:52Speaker 2: that guy just because he had this look, this polished
- 9:57Speaker 2: I've told you before, he looks like the devil in
- 9:59Speaker 2: a suit. That's just kind of how I see him.
- 10:03Speaker 2: But he's either going to look like Gavin Newsom or
- 10:09Speaker 2: he's going to look like Elizabeth Hurley in that movie, remember?
- 10:12Speaker 2: And I just feel like that's one of two looks
- 10:15Speaker 2: that you're going to get from the devil incarnate. But
- 10:20Speaker 2: then you start hearing about candidates, you go, okay, Mark
- 10:24Speaker 2: Kelly and Jack Ossoff. And I don't know that either
- 10:31Speaker 2: one of those people have any chance at all in
- 10:34Speaker 2: winning the White House. And I want to like Mark Kelly, right?
- 10:40Speaker 2: I want to like him, but he says a lot
- 10:43Speaker 2: of ridiculous things. One of the things he was asked
- 10:47Speaker 2: about over the weekend was this poll that says that
- 10:54Speaker 2: only 34% of Americans believe Democrats care about people like them.
- 10:58Speaker 2: That's bad for them. It's not bad for the rest
- 11:04Speaker 2: of us. It's bad for them. I mean, I think
- 11:07Speaker 2: it's bad for our two-party system that is one of
- 11:11Speaker 2: the two parties is saying we're going to be as
- 11:13Speaker 2: extreme as possible and push as far to the left
- 11:16Speaker 2: as humanly possible because we think it's important to court
- 11:21Speaker 2: those voters. It's important for us to know that we're
- 11:24Speaker 2: pushing for the pro-Palestinian. We're pushing for the anti-Israel crowd.
- 11:33Speaker 2: And I think maybe part of this, you know... 34%
- 11:37Speaker 2: of people who think that they're actually looking out for them,
- 11:40Speaker 2: there's probably a significant amount of Jewish voters saying, I
- 11:46Speaker 2: don't see where they're supporting us anymore. I don't see
- 11:50Speaker 2: where we should be keeping our allegiance in their direction.
- 11:57Speaker 2: I've also, we've seen a number of these polls, and
- 11:59Speaker 2: I've talked a little bit about this. You have a
- 12:02Speaker 2: lot of black Americans that are saying the same thing.
- 12:05Speaker 2: Why are we allowing people to come in through the
- 12:09Speaker 2: southern border and we're focusing on getting them free things
- 12:14Speaker 2: and we're focused on getting them settled somewhere and we're
- 12:17Speaker 2: focused on making sure that all their needs are met
- 12:21Speaker 2: and we're not focusing on what used to be a
- 12:24Speaker 2: solid lock vote for Democrats? These are two groups that
- 12:30Speaker 2: it used to just be presumed They were going to
- 12:32Speaker 2: show up at the polls, and they were going to
- 12:34Speaker 2: vote Democrat, and they were locked in. Now, I'm sure
- 12:38Speaker 2: there are still a large number of both of those
- 12:41Speaker 2: groups that will continue to do that. We also saw
- 12:44Speaker 2: some of the actual registered voters, citizens in the Hispanic community,
- 12:51Speaker 2: who have done the same thing and said, wait a minute,
- 12:56Speaker 2: we don't want everybody just coming across the border. And
- 13:00Speaker 2: how dare you think that that's something that we want?
- 13:04Speaker 2: I'm sure you have a number of people that have
- 13:06Speaker 2: come to this country and settled and said, I'd like
- 13:08Speaker 2: some of my family to come. But they don't want
- 13:11Speaker 2: everybody who looks like them to come in and to
- 13:14Speaker 2: come in illegally when they went through a system and said,
- 13:18Speaker 2: we want to make sure that this system that we
- 13:23Speaker 2: came in on is the one that everyone comes in on.
- 13:26Speaker 2: So I think that may be part of this 34% thing.
- 13:29Speaker 2: And we'll see if that's where things go over the
- 13:32Speaker 2: next few weeks. Another quick thing I want to talk
- 13:34Speaker 2: about this morning is, and I didn't get into this yesterday,
- 13:40Speaker 2: but I wanted to talk about the gambling in sports.
- 13:45Speaker 2: It drives me crazy. I understand there's no going back.
- 13:48Speaker 2: This is just part of professional sports now. You see
- 13:52Speaker 2: the ads now that say, hey, Georgia, guess what? You
- 13:54Speaker 2: now get a chance to gamble on sports. You can
- 13:59Speaker 2: watch a game that you used to be able to
- 14:00Speaker 2: watch before and see it, and then when there was
- 14:03Speaker 2: a horrible example of officiating during the game, you don't
- 14:08Speaker 2: instantly assume that the ref is probably gambling. But now, Georgia,
- 14:14Speaker 2: you can be part of that movement as well and
- 14:16Speaker 2: wonder why teams and players are doing really stupid things.
- 14:19Speaker 2: Why you got games where, you know, Vanderbilt's winning games
- 14:23Speaker 2: because you got guys dropping balls in the end zone
- 14:25Speaker 2: for no reason, or I don't know. Some of the
- 14:28Speaker 2: really pathetic officiating that happened over the weekend. There were three,
- 14:33Speaker 2: at least three horrible calls that I'm aware of at
- 14:39Speaker 2: the very least. First of all, the Broncos beat the
- 14:43Speaker 2: Rams after the Rams should have had a game ending interception.
- 14:50Speaker 2: And for some reason, the refs just decided we're going
- 14:53Speaker 2: to call pass interference on this play, which really had
- 14:56Speaker 2: nothing to do with anything. There's a lot of people
- 14:59Speaker 2: complaining about the hit, the dolphins and the chiefs, uh,
- 15:04Speaker 2: hit on my homes in the end zone. Uh, it
- 15:07Speaker 2: is within the confines of the rules. Uh, it's a
- 15:10Speaker 2: silly rule, but it is in fact, uh, the rule
- 15:15Speaker 2: it's stupid, but you know, a guy tackles a quarterback
- 15:19Speaker 2: and lands on top of him. So they call it
- 15:22Speaker 2: rough in the passer. Of course, you got Mahomes basically
- 15:27Speaker 2: calling for the penalty as he's being tackled, which is
- 15:31Speaker 2: another ridiculous thing. And when you're Patrick Mahomes or when
- 15:34Speaker 2: you're a handful of teams, you can do that. The
- 15:36Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys get a lot of pass interference calls by
- 15:39Speaker 2: asking for it. Tom Brady used to get a lot
- 15:41Speaker 2: of pass interference or roughing the passer calls by asking
- 15:44Speaker 2: for it. If you can ask for it and get it,
- 15:46Speaker 2: why don't you do it? It happens in the NBA, so...
- 15:49Speaker 2: And then on the subject of the Dallas Cowboys, yes, again,
- 15:52Speaker 2: they played the Ravens over the weekend in Brazil, and
- 15:56Speaker 2: there was what should have been potentially a game-ending interception
- 16:02Speaker 2: by the Ravens, where I think it was CeeDee Lamb
- 16:05Speaker 2: was behind the defensive back and pulled him backwards to
- 16:08Speaker 2: keep him from making the interception, and they called pass
- 16:11Speaker 2: interference on the defensive back. If he makes the interception, which...
- 16:17Speaker 2: There's no guarantee that he would have, but it potentially
- 16:20Speaker 2: would have been a game-sealing interception. And the call, of course,
- 16:27Speaker 2: went for Dallas. So when you see these things, you think, well,
- 16:30Speaker 2: what is happening here? And at the very least, it
- 16:32Speaker 2: should have been pass interference on, I think it was
- 16:36Speaker 2: CeeDee Lamb. And they should have backed the Cowboys up
- 16:40Speaker 2: 15 yards. It potentially would have actually given the Cowboys
- 16:44Speaker 2: a better chance to win the game because... The Ravens
- 16:47Speaker 2: ended up winning the game anyway. In regulation time, with
- 16:51Speaker 2: seven seconds left, they were able to get into field
- 16:54Speaker 2: goal range with one second left and then kick a
- 16:57Speaker 2: game-winning field goal, which was pretty remarkable. And I just
- 17:01Speaker 2: think that if we're going to have a lot of
- 17:03Speaker 2: bad calls every week and then we're welcoming in the
- 17:08Speaker 2: world of gambling into every aspect of it, you've got
- 17:13Speaker 2: to know we're all going to be suspicious. We're Americans.
- 17:17Speaker 2: We're suspicious of a lot of things. We're suspicious of
- 17:21Speaker 2: our government. That's kind of in our blood. That's in
- 17:24Speaker 2: our nature from our founding. And, you know, we're going
- 17:28Speaker 2: to be suspicious of officiating if it always seems to
- 17:32Speaker 2: break a certain way in a game. And you start
- 17:34Speaker 2: looking and going, well, wait a minute. Do I need
- 17:36Speaker 2: to know what the line is on the game so
- 17:39Speaker 2: I can know whether or not I should be suspicious
- 17:42Speaker 2: of the officiating. Well, if you're like me and my family,
- 17:46Speaker 2: you struggle probably to come up with something different in
- 17:51Speaker 2: the regular meal rotation every single day. We plan out
- 17:57Speaker 2: our week. We try to figure out what we're going
- 17:59Speaker 2: to have for our meals in the evening. And we

- 21:00Speaker 2: in Columbus and Inside the Planetarium at the Coca-Cola Space
- 21:04Speaker 2: Science Center. And the new season of Music Under the Dome.
- 21:08Speaker 2: Check out upcoming dates for the shows. And also check
- 21:12Speaker 2: out when the next Astronomy Night is coming up where
- 21:15Speaker 2: you can get outside. Sometimes you do it at the
- 21:18Speaker 2: Coca-Cola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get somewhere outside the
- 21:22Speaker 2: city lights. You don't want any light interference, and you
- 21:24Speaker 2: can do that as well. Upcoming astronomy night events also
- 21:28Speaker 2: on their website. It's CCSSC.org. As Sean Cruzan says, CharlieCharlieSamSamCharlie.org.
- 21:36Speaker 2: I just remind you that it stands for Coca-Cola Space
- 21:39Speaker 2: Science Center, CCSSC.org. Today's show brought to you by Overhead
- 21:44Speaker 2: Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage door needs,
- 21:48Speaker 2: commercial needs, or residential, maybe you have regular maintenance that
- 21:54Speaker 2: it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance on
- 21:57Speaker 2: anything that has parts that move and have electronics. The
- 22:00Speaker 2: folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take care
- 22:04Speaker 2: of squaring that away for you. And while they're there,
- 22:07Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
- 22:09Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
- 22:12Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
- 22:16Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
- 22:18Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
- 22:21Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
- 22:24Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
- 22:28Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather. Sometimes
- 22:32Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
- 22:35Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
- 22:38Speaker 2: door to your garage door system. that you can put
- 22:40Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
- 22:44Speaker 2: sort of outdoor, but indoor, you know, if you like
- 22:46Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
- 22:49Speaker 2: you just want a little man cave that you'd like
- 22:51Speaker 2: to be able to open the door up and not
- 22:53Speaker 2: invite all the insects in. They can do that for
- 22:56Speaker 2: you as well. And again, they do after hours calls.
- 22:58Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
- 23:01Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
- 23:04Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help. And they do
- 23:07Speaker 2: those as well. 706-358-4500, 706-358-4500, odccolumbus.com. More West Carol Morning
- 23:10Speaker 2: Show right after the break. So plastic surgeons say that
- 23:11Speaker 2: more and more men are getting facelifts. And in some cases,
- 23:37Speaker 2: it's husbands booking procedures before their wives book procedures. And
- 23:42Speaker 2: they say the goal isn't necessarily to look 25 again.
- 23:45Speaker 2: Many men say that they simply want their appearance to
- 23:48Speaker 2: match how young and active they still feel. Biggest complaints,
- 23:53Speaker 2: a sagging neck, jowls, a disappearing jawline. Surgeons say those
- 23:59Speaker 2: areas are often harder to fix with Botox or fillers alone,
- 24:03Speaker 2: so that's why more and more men are opting to
- 24:06Speaker 2: go under the knife. And despite the stereotypes, today's male
- 24:10Speaker 2: patients aren't looking for dramatic transformations. They just want people
- 24:14Speaker 2: to think they look well-rested and not unrecognizable. I'm an
- 24:20Speaker 2: advocate for do your own thing. You know that. You've
- 24:23Speaker 2: heard me say that many times. And of course, I
- 24:28Speaker 2: think some of the maybe, and this isn't part of
- 24:31Speaker 2: this particular article about this, but I do wonder how
- 24:35Speaker 2: much of the Ozempic face is part of this as well.
- 24:40Speaker 2: So I don't know. If I have to try to
- 24:42Speaker 2: have surgery so that I can look the way that
- 24:45Speaker 2: I feel, they're going to just have to jack my
- 24:50Speaker 2: face up, I think. I don't know. Most people tell
- 24:53Speaker 2: me I look younger than I am. I'll take that,
- 24:56Speaker 2: but I definitely feel older than I am a lot
- 24:58Speaker 2: of times. So, you know, that's maybe the trade-off. Have
- 25:02Speaker 2: you ever thought that your soft drinks needed just a
- 25:08Speaker 2: hint of cheese flavoring? Well, Kraft Dinner, the Canadian version
- 25:13Speaker 2: of Kraft Mac and Cheese, has teamed up with Solly's
- 25:16Speaker 2: Kraft Soda to create a limited edition cream soda with
- 25:20Speaker 2: a hint of cheesy flavor. The drink is being billed
- 25:23Speaker 2: as a sweet and savory mashup, and it lets fans
- 25:26Speaker 2: enjoy their mac and cheese obsession outside the bowl. And
- 25:30Speaker 2: it's only available in Canada for now, but it looks
- 25:33Speaker 2: like it's just called KD for Kraft Dinner. By Solly's. Smile,
- 25:39Speaker 2: it's a Solly, it says on the can. And it
- 25:41Speaker 2: looks very orange coming out of the can. I like
- 25:45Speaker 2: mac and cheese. I like soft drinks. I don't know
- 25:49Speaker 2: that this is for me, but I would try it.
- 25:52Speaker 2: If they sent me a can, I would certainly, you know,
- 25:55Speaker 2: check it out. Forget grandma and grandpa. Today's grandparents, much
- 26:00Speaker 2: too cool to be called old-fashioned names. More and more
- 26:03Speaker 2: boomer grandparents choosing creative nicknames. And this has been a
- 26:06Speaker 2: trend for a while. The GGs, the Gagas, the Mimis,
- 26:10Speaker 2: the Coco, the Lolos, the Poppies, the Chief, the Grand Dude.
- 26:17Speaker 2: Experts say it's partly because today's grandparents are more active
- 26:21Speaker 2: than ever, and many want a nickname that better matches
- 26:23Speaker 2: their personality. They should get plastic surgery! Of course, plenty
- 26:29Speaker 2: of people still love the classics, but for some grandparents,
- 26:32Speaker 2: being called grandma feels a little too old school when
- 26:35Speaker 2: they're still traveling, working, posting on social media, and going
- 26:40Speaker 2: to the gym.
- 26:41Speaker 1: So....
- 26:43Speaker 2: Yeah, this is not a new trend, but I guess
- 26:45Speaker 2: it's just continued on longer than maybe many people thought. So,
- 26:50Speaker 2: and I think it probably, and I don't know, kind
- 26:52Speaker 2: of seems to me like this is more, largely more
- 26:56Speaker 2: of a grandma thing than a grandpa thing. But I
- 27:00Speaker 2: don't know. According to a new study, Earth's closest alien
- 27:04Speaker 2: life probably isn't very advanced. Scientists say the universe is
- 27:08Speaker 2: so huge that the Earth... can't be the only planet
- 27:11Speaker 2: without life. Not all scientists say that, some. And our
- 27:14Speaker 2: closest alien neighbors are probably simple microbes. You can hear
- 27:18Speaker 2: us say that on Made of Stars a lot. And
- 27:20Speaker 2: not advanced space-traveling civilizations. Researchers analyzed 29 nearby planets capable
- 27:27Speaker 2: of holding liquid water, which is important for life, and
- 27:31Speaker 2: found that only two showed conditions bright and warm enough
- 27:34Speaker 2: to potentially support life that is further evolved than what's
- 27:37Speaker 2: on Earth. It's still possible that there are super advanced
- 27:41Speaker 2: space-traveling aliens out there. It just seems they're nowhere near
- 27:45Speaker 2: striking distance. That's kind of been the thought for a
- 27:49Speaker 2: long time now. And GTA 6 collector box money, as
- 27:54Speaker 2: Rockstar Games is looking to cash in on the GTA
- 27:58Speaker 2: 6 in a big way. So they've got this money grab,
- 28:02Speaker 2: I guess, for the collector box. They just opened pre-orders
- 28:06Speaker 2: for a $ 400 collector set for Grand Theft Auto 6.
- 28:10Speaker 2: Doesn't even include a copy of the game. The bundle,
- 28:13Speaker 2: named The Good Time State Vice City Collection, contains 11
- 28:17Speaker 2: physical items themed around in-the-game television show Macca the Gator.
- 28:25Speaker 2: So themed around the in-game TV show. I got you.
- 28:28Speaker 2: I thought I was like, when did I miss this show?
- 28:31Speaker 2: including a gator figure, sunglasses, a hat, a crossbody bag,
- 28:35Speaker 2: and a shot glass, and a map poster. To be clear,
- 28:40Speaker 2: you still will need to purchase the game separately when
- 28:44Speaker 2: both the merch box and the game launch November the 19th.
- 28:49Speaker 2: We'll see, though. It's been one of those games that
- 28:50Speaker 2: keeps getting pushed back. That'll do it for this Tuesday
- 28:54Speaker 2: edition of the show. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons.
- 28:57Speaker 2: Thank you for listening. I'll catch you back here tomorrow morning.
