  Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Friday morning, twenty sixth day of June. I'm Wes, thanks
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: for joining me, getting ready to roll on end of
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: the weekend and getting rid of like we're coming up
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: on the whole USA July four, two point fifty, coming
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: up fast, all over a week away, exciting. How you
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: going to celebrate? You're going to be proud of all
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: the freedoms that we have and all the accomplishments, all
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: the things that our founders laid out for us so
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: long ago. Or are you going to pout, fold your arms,
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: stick out your lip, boo hoo, boo hoo, America. I
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: don't know how you're going to celebrate? How are you
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: going to celebrate? I've seen all the stats about They
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: break it down by Democrat, Republican or independent. Who's gonna
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: fly a flag for Independence Day? How can you not
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: just jump in there and celebrate? Even if you got
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: you know, like a relative, you don't like they're having
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: a big like you know, one hundredth birthday party. You
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: show up, you know, enjoy the food the very least,
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: you don't go I don't know them murder. You just
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: show up and just at least have a beverage something,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: come on. But it's I guess it should surprise me.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: We got a lot of people that aren't going to
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: be happy about it. There were some we're gonna get
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: to the Friday stuff. But there were some Supreme Court
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: rulings yesterday that big wins for the Trump administration. That's
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: what they say. I would rather say big wins for
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: you know, the American people. There was a big Second
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Amendment ruling concerning Hawaii. This rule they have that basically
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: said with a concealed carry permit, if you just left
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: your house with your concealed weapon and you didn't have
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: express express written consent for Major League Baseball, no express
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: written permission or whatever posted from a homeowner, you couldn't
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: take your weapon to their house. And if you took
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: it into a business without having signage that said you
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: could have it, that it was illegal. So basically, Hawaii
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: had figured out a way to say, you have a
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: freedom to have a Second Amendment rights, you just can't
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: have them anywhere but at your house or you know,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: if somebody said specifically you could. Now the way that
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: works with most situations is you know, if a place
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: has a sign up that says that you can't have
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: a weapon there, then you could be you know, trespassed
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: from that property for having it. And then there's some
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: places that it makes sense, schools and you know, there's
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: a churches, there's places where you can't have it on
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: the property. But to go to someone's house unless they specifically,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: I guess, I don't know how it works with a house.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: I guess they could trespass you from their house if
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: they find out you got a gun on you. But anyway,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: so that's one of the things that we can celebrate,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: one of those rights, those inalienable, God given rights that
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: we have to protect ourselves and protect ourselves from oppression
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: and tyranny and state tyranny like in Hawaii. So that
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: was a big ruling, and you know they're saying, oh,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: this is a Trump win, And is that a Trump
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: win or is that just a win for a second
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Amendment in Hawaii. I think the other thing before I
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: get to the Friday stuff is I just don't I
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: don't follow the w NBA. I'm like most people, and
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, let's just be blunt. There's a lot of
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: people that don't watch it. There's some that do. It's
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: it's the audience has grown a bit. One of the
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: reasons that the audience has grown a bit is because
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: of Caitlin Clark. And every time I see anything news
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: related with the w NBA, it's one of two things.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: It's got to do with salaries or it has to
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: do with somebody doing something horrible to Caitlyn Clark on
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: the court and other players just like there's a girl
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: that just put her put her knee on her and
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: then like basically shoved her fist into her throat. I
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: know sports can be violent, I get that, but this
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: this is your goose, you know, don't like just be
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: happy that people want to watch and if you're jealous
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: and you're upset. I know that this has been a
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: thing now for a while, this conversation about about the
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: Jason Whitlock and I'm not going full Jason Whitlock here.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: There's things Jason Whitlock can say that I can't say.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: But Jason Whitlock has pointed out for a while now
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: that there's specific reasons that the other ladies in the
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: league don't like Caitlin Clark and why they're doing everything
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: they can to hurt her or get her out of
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: the league or whatever. And I just I don't understand
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: if she's drawing attention to the fact that you get
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: to play basketball as a career, even if you're not
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: happy with the fact that your league doesn't make any money,
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: and that you know, the NBA has to supplement your
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: salaries and all of that just so that they can
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: say that it turns a profit. I don't I don't know.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: I don't know how that works. But I would just
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: be happy, you know. I mean, unless we're going WWE
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: and they get in the back and they you know,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: fist bump and go, hey, good job. But it's it's
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: pretty ridiculous that they would do anything to And she's
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: not like injured, you know, World Cup injured. She's not
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: rolling around on the floor holding her knee and it
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: looks like someone chopped her leg off. It's not that
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: she looks genuinely hurt from the way that the play
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: went down. And it's like one of her old teammates
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: apparently don't I don't know, I don't know. I don't
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: know anything about any of this. I don't And if
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: this is what the product is They're not drawing in
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: me to watch it. They're not going to draw me in.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: If this is all it's going to be, and bitterness
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: and anger and jealousy and all that, I'm not. I mean,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: they probably weren't going to get me anyway. I don't
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: have time in my life for a new sport. I
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: don't watch the NBA really, I you know, maybe a
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: little bit in the playoffs. I like college basketball, when
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: the when the tournament, when when March rolls around, I'm
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: in and I watched some during the season, but I
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: just you know, the NBA is in college too, but
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: at least with college it's it's a little different because
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: it's still college kids, even if nil and all that
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: stuff applies. But it's NBA's just is a completely different game.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Just you know, cranking up threes. It's all they're doing.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: They have an easy, you know, short range shot they
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: can take and they kick it out to somebody who
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: cranks up a three, you know, five feet behind the line,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: and that's all they do, take the easy points. Looking
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: at you, San Antonio. All right, it is Friday, and
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: that means it is time to start with some positive news,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: some positivity. As we get ready to roll into this
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: weekend and we need some positivity. And I'll start with
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: this story. This two kids, teenagers say they're ages. I know,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: I saw that they were teenager. I'm looking for their ages.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: But anyway, two teenagers, Gunner Skidmore and Cohen Chick, were
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: you know, having a morning bike ride and this was
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: in Fruitland, Iowa, and something caught their attention. They were
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: cruising down a rural road. Rural is one of those
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: roads that I'm sorry words see, it's tricky. Rural is
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: one of those words that people that work in broadcasting
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: don't like to say because it just doesn't sound right
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: coming out of your mouth, at least for me. Brewery
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: is another one. It just doesn't feel right. So they
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: were going down this rural road and they spotted what
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: appeared to be someone lying in the yard. I didn't
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: know what they were seeing, so they went back to
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: check it out. Gunnar and Cohen were at the right
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: place at the right time, because it was an elderly
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: woman who could not move and did not have her phone.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: She had fallen the night before while she was feeding
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: her horse and had been stranded outside in the yard
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: for sixteen hours. The boys called nine one one. First
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: responders transferred the woman to a hospital for medical treatment.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Kindness didn't stop there either. While she recovers, Gunner's mom
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: has stayed in touch with the woman's family and has
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: been helping care for the woman's horse by making sure
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: it has food and water. Family also plans to welcome
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: the woman home with a homemade lasagna when she is
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: discharged from the hospital. First of all, Fruitland, Iowa is
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: one of those places it makes me think about, like
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: I think Napoleon Dynamite was set in Idaho, but still
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: you start thinking about places where you go. Yeah, of
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: course she fell out feeding her horse. So but nice
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: job for these two kids. That is. That's very good
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: and I like it. Here's another one. This is one
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: of the stories that is that reminder about the importance
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: of blood drives donating blood. We're always in a blood shortage.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: James Parker of Wichita, Kansas reached a milestone donated his
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: one hundredth gallon of blood one hundredth gallon of blood
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: to the American Red Cross. His incredible journey started nearly
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: fifty years ago a little bit of high school peer pressure.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: He was a high school principal at the time, and
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: his senior class challenged him to roll up his sleeve
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: if half of them did. Couldn't back down from being
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: a leader, so he made his first donation and it
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: sparked a lifelong passion for giving back. Over the decades,
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: James became a dedicated blood donor, and from four he
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: and his wife embarked on an epic road trip to
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: donate blood in every single state across the country. That's
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: pretty cool. James and his wife have woven the generosity
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: into their lives, knowing it impacts others in a big way.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: As he explained, every time we donated a gallon of
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: whole blood, we helped save three lives. Every unit of
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: platelets say one life. James, who celebrated his eighty eighth
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: birthday on Monday, isn't planning on slowing down anytime soon.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: He's hoping that by this time next year his wife
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: will join the club and hit her one hundred gallon
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: as well. Great stuff. I was a big chicken when
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: it came to donating blood and did not do it
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: for a very long time, And when I finally got
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: around to doing it, I thought, what have I been
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: such a baby about so I love it. I love
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: that story. And I found out I was a universal
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: platelet plasma donor, and I started doing platelets, and I
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: think they do I'm trying to remember the cycle. They
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: do so many platelets and then they do plasma like
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: on certain visits and everything. But anyway, and that's a
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: different cycle for those things we're doing that. My father
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: in law has been giving blood and I guess platelets
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: for a very long time, so I kind of was
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: inspired in some way by him as well. Jump into
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: some strange and bizarre news from around the world. An
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: unusual emergency in southeast Texas after a woman fell trying
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: to feed her horse. No no, No, that was Iowa. An
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: eighteen wheeler carrying hundreds of bee hives turned over and
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: released an estimated twenty four million honey bees into a neighborhood.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: The crash happened earlier this week in Orange County near
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: the Louisiana border, when a truck lost control flipped into
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: a ditch, rupturing more than four hundred hives. Each hive
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: had between sixty and eighty thousand bees in it. Authorities
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: quickly told nearby residents to stay indoors seal their homes
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: as massive swarms of agitated bees filled the air. Emergency
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: crews teamed up with local beekeepers, using protective suits to
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: contain the bees and begin clearing the scene. Officials have
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: not yet said how the driver is doing or how
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: many people could have been stunned. Beekeepers are working to
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: recover as many colonies as possible after the chaotic scene.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: It's sad. Those bees were just being that's all they
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: were doing, and then they get tipped over in a
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: ditch and telling people to seal their houses up. How
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: do you even do that? What is your Have you
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: got tape, especially be seal tape. There's another story in Texas,
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: As authorities have been on the hunt for a missing giraffe. Yeah.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Officials say that the giraffe named Gracie, escaped from a
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: private ranch in Real County, located in the Texas Hill
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Country region. She was last spotted on a game camera
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: west of the town of Leaky. Like everything about this story, Gracie,
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: described as a three or four year old giraffe with
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: rounded ears standing over seven feet tall, reportedly slipped out
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: after finding a way beyond fencing on the property. The
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: search effort has grown a rancher offering five thousand dollars
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: reward for information leading to the safe return of Gracie.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Authority say the rugged terrain poses risks including injury or predators,
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: and they're urging everyone who says spots the animal. But
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: they got those spots on them. I don't know if
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: they're doing that on purpose to contact the sheriff's office.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: So we learned from the Andy Griffiths show that giraffes
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: can be very selfish, so getting out and causing all
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: this commotion was a very selfish giraffe thing to do.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: An elderly Florida man wants to take a bite out
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: of waffle House profits through a lawsuit, saying that one
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: of the chain's ads caused him to be distracted and
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: fall down, causing serious injuries. Edward Bolds says that Barstow,
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Florida's location of a waffle house was responsible for his
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: pain and suffering because it erected an overly large poster
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: saying Strawberry short cake waffles, an image that increased the
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: risk of harm beyond ordinary conditions by prioritizing marketing and
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: visual appeal over pedestrian safety. According to the bawd suit,
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: and the claim is that there was no need for
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: the ad in the first place, since it was located
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: in a place where it could only be seen by
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: people already on site and ready to eat. According to
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: court papers, the eighty four year old tore his rotator cuff. Well,
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: that's not serious business there, and we'll deal with pain
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: and limitations for the rest of his life. Ballads and
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: his wife, who was a co plaintiff in the suit,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: would have accepted a settlement of three hundred thousand dollars,
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: but waffle House declined the offer and the pair decided
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: to file suit. So got to be careful when you
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: advertise those strawberry short cake waffles. They sound delicious. And
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: a Florida man injured two people by crashing his truck
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: into their vehicle and then tried to get away by
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: stealing the medical transport helicopter that was sent to treat them.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Riley Ferrer lost control of his pickup and slammed into
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: another car before flipping over in some nearby woods. But
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: he had a good excuse. He was fleeing from the Antichrist.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: I mean that seems like a good excuse to me.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: After he climbed out of his total truck. Pharerr ran
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: towards the crash scene and hopped into the helicopter, which
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: he tried, unsuccessfully to steal. Police placed him into a
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: patrol car and drove him to a nearby hospital for examination.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: He refused to walk into the building and had to
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: be physically escorted inside by deputies. He now faces three
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: counts of resisting without violence and one count of burglary
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: of an occupied conveyance and was held without bail. The
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: bold move here, and I think should I'm not an
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: advocate or stealing and trying to flee police, but it's
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: a bold move trying to fly a helicopter, presumably without
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: any experience. I'm assuming he's not an experienced pilot. Maybe
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: if he was, he might have gotten away with this.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: But the fact that he thought, I'm gonna go steal
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: that helicopter, it's bold. It deserves at least a little credit.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: I think today's show brought to you by Columbus State
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: University's Coca Cola Space Science Center, inspiring and educating the
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: youth and future STEM leaders and STEM career holders that
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: really of all ages, I mean, they do it for
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: school age kids. As school age kids visit the Coca
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center, but they also do it through
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics,
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: and the careers in space and stem fields are booming
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: right now, and you can learn more about may be
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: getting your degree on their website CCSSC dot org. While
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: you're there, also check out some of their upcoming programs.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: They've got this incredible collaboration that they do with the
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: Schwob School of Music from Columbus State University called Music
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: under the Dome. It's unlike any concert experience that you
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: can get anywhere else. It's one of those things that
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: when you're watching it in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: this really in Columbus, Georgia. I mean, this is a
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: major city attraction that happens right here in Columbus inside
• 18:36

• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's time for. It's
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: always good to get maintenance on anything that has parts
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: that move and have electronics. The folks at Overhead Door

  Speaker 2: Company of Columbus can take care of squaring that away
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: for you, and while they're there, you can always ask
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: them questions about some of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: like to make to your garage door. Maybe your curb
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: appeal isn't quite what you want it to be and
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: you need some repair work done to the outside door.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: Maybe you need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: it's making a noise when your garage door opens and
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: cl Maybe it's some sort of insulation issue that you've
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: got with colder or warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: where you'd like to add a screen door to your
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: garage door system that you can put down and you
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: can use your garage space as a sort of outdoor
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: but indoor. You know, if you like to work on
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: your own cars in there, or maybe you just want
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: a little man cavid you'd like to be able to
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: open the door up and not invite all the insects in.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: They can do that for you as well, and again
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: they do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: thought of having your car trapped inside your garage and
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: your garage door won't open and you need somebody to
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: come help, and they do those as well. Seven oh

• 20:51
  Speaker 2: West Carol Morning Show. Right after the break, there's a
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: new workplace trend aimed at young workers, and it's maybe
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: a little surprising because they're seeking more discomfort. It's called
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: friction maxing, and it basically means you're choose the harder,
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: more awkward option instead of always going for convenience. So
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: in a world where you can text instead of call
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: or let Ai do heavy lifting, it's easy to avoid
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: uncomfortable situations. But in those moments, like making a phone
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: call or handling a tough conversation in person, are exactly
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: where important skills get built. So things like communication, conflict resolution,
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: confidence can't be automated. Employers say they matter more than ever.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: So the idea is, if you want to grow at work,
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: stop dodging friction and start practicing it. This is like
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: taking the stairs. There's an elevator, there's an escalator, but
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: you're going to take stairs because you are basically, you know,
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: trying to make it a little bit more difficult on
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: yourself so that you can grow and you can expand. Yeah,
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: I I as someone who often does not like to
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: make phone conversations, who does not want to have to
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: be on the phone, that that those are sometimes not
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: fun for me, and I would much rather text. But
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: sometimes you got to rip the band aid off, or
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: in this case, you know, work the biceps or work
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: the calves. Not that I've ever really had to do
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: that very much, but how about this, speaking of working out,
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: you're familiar with this term called rucking, and this isn't new,
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: this idea of rucking. It's walking with a weighted backpack.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: I see more and more people with weighted backpacks. Jill
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: and I walk almost every day. You had a dog,
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: you gotta walk. I heard this term the other day
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: about this idea that if you you know you have
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: a doll, then you know your neighborhood because you got
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: to be out there in the neighborhood. You got to
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: be out walking. And basically, as we've been out walking,
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: we've been seeing a lot of people with the way
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: Jill has a waited backpack. Fitness experts say that one
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: simple tweak turns a casual stroll into a legit workout
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: and helps you build strength, burn more calories without wear
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: and tear of running. And hikers have been doing it
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: for a very long time. So throwing that extra a
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: little bit, something different to just throw in the mix
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: for you while you are just going for a walk,
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: and it makes a big difference. Jen X now has
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: the age range from forty five to sixty one, and
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: a new study found that about a third of these
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: fully formed adults still rely on mom and dad for cash.
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: Because Americans are living longer, adult children are waiting longer
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: to receive their inheritance, which means middle aged adults looked
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: at their parents for economic supports to help pay for mortgages, groceries,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: and phone bills. It's an interesting trend when you look
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: at that age group, but it makes sense for that
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: very reason, and it's great as far as life expectancy
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: and things like that, that's all great. A new twenty
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: four hour convenience store has officially opened in Hong Kong,
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: featuring zero human employees. Just a single humanoid robot runs
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: the entire show. Five foot six robot uses its six
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: foot arm span to restock shelves, grab items for shoppers,
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: and handle customer checkouts inside a little building built with
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: advanced AI. The robot can hold friendly conversations in different
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: languages while selling everything from snacks to over the counter medicines.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: If the store is a success, another one hundred robot
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: managed stores could be rolled out in ten cities over
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: the next year. That is an interesting development, right, That's
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: an interesting development. So there's an online hobby called box breaking,
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: and it's facing some legal issues as new lawsuits claim
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: it's an illegal gambling scheme. Box Breaking if You Don't
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Know involves online hosts buying a highly expensive box of
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: mystery cards and selling individual slots to viewers before opening
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: the pack to reveal what's in the in the slot
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: on a video livestream. Critics argue that it counts as
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: gambling because buyers pay a high flat rate for a
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: randomized slot without any guarantee they'll get a rare card
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: if they get a card at all. Platforms like what
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Not claim that it is just a longstanding hobby tradition. Lawyers, though,
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: arguing that paying money for a complete game of chance
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: means it has an exact operating structure of an unregulated
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: online casino. It is. It's kind of a lottery in
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: that sense, isn't it. And scientists in China've developed a
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: new car paint that's so dark it looks like a
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: black hole on wheels. It's a new ultra black paint,
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: absorbing more than ninety nine point nine percent of all
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: visible light because it reflects absolutely zero light. Any car
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: coded and it loses three dimensional shape, turning a normal
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: vehicle into a flat silhouette where you can only see
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: the headlights and the tires. That's creepy stuff there, and
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: I'm looking at the pictures and I'm like, eh, that's uh,
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: I mean yeah, I get where they're using the black
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: hole analogy on it. So it's wild stuff.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 26:35
