Latest / The Wes Carroll Morning Show / Can We Please Enforce the Litter Laws?
Transcript
- 0:01The news, opinions, commentary and interviews. You need to start your day.
- 0:06You're listening to The West Carrol Morning Show. Monday morning, eighth day
- 0:11of January. I'm Wes, thanks for kicking off your week with me.
- 0:16As we get into this now second week of the new year and zipping right
- 0:24by, isn't it working our way towards twenty twenty five where I don't know,
- 0:29three hundred and something days away from election day. All that will be
- 0:33kicking in now in the coming day is really Congress is going to be doing
- 0:38their thing this week. We have another potential government shutdown looming. There's already
- 0:44lots of talking predictions about red waves happening. Again, I don't want to
- 0:51get any of that stuff started yet, Okay, Can we just hold off
- 0:55the talk of a red wave until maybe election night when results are coming in.
- 1:00Could we possibly avoid any of that silliness because it didn't go that way
- 1:07last time we were hearing about the red wave, So there's no reason to
- 1:11get caught up in this red wave shenanigans. All right? Can we just
- 1:15stop that? Yes, there's a handful of potential Senate flips, and that's
- 1:21one of the things that's being discussed, and oh, this could be a
- 1:23major shakeup, and that would be fantastic if it's the right people getting in
- 1:30that are going to do the right things. You can't just put people in
- 1:34that are going to do more of the same. That doesn't do any good.
- 1:37And we need people that are going to make a legitimate conservative stand on
- 1:44things now. Don't get me wrong. Even if it just gives Republicans a
- 1:47majority where we can stop the bleeding, that would be fine. I'd love
- 1:53to get to a point maybe where we can start trying to heal some wounds.
- 1:56That would be the optimistic and really fantastic side of itouldn't it. Wouldn't
- 2:00that be amazing. Wouldn't that be just great if we could do that.
- 2:04So we look into that, and like I said, like three hundred and
- 2:07something days, we'll get to deal with the next three hundred days of that.
- 2:13That's what we get to look at, all. Right, So the
- 2:15topic, and I know there's a few things we could talk about, and
- 2:17I'm going to get to some of that stuff in the coming days. What
- 2:22I do want to talk about, and this is sort of like a quarterly
- 2:25report something along those lines. Maybe I don't know. It feels like it.
- 2:29Sometimes anytime I talk about it, I end up hearing from folks that
- 2:32say, oh, thank goodness, somebody's talking about it. Okay, maybe
- 2:37it's not quarterly. Maybe it's like twice a year. Probably should be every
- 2:39couple of weeks really, And it's the subject of littering here in the Columbus
- 2:46area. And I assume this probably is safe to say. It's a decent
- 2:52chunk of the Chattahoochee Valley area from where we record the show, where many
- 2:58of you listen from. I look at the stats very regularly where you're listening
- 3:00from. Some of you are transplants to other places, so you're familiar with
- 3:05the area. Some of you are listening in other parts of the country.
- 3:08Thank you for that. Maybe you've never even been here and you've just stumbled
- 3:12into the show. I've heard from a few of you for that, and
- 3:15that you've helped spread the word about that, and I appreciate that very much.
- 3:21Many of you, though, are in this particular area, and you
- 3:25know me from radio and TV and a number of things that I've done in
- 3:30the area. So I'm talking to the people who live in this area,
- 3:32and I don't know. Maybe this applies to you if you're in Florida.
- 3:36Maybe this applies to you if you're and the Carolinas, the people that are
- 3:38listening in that area. And when I say the Columbus area, of course,
- 3:45i'm talking about Phoenix City, and of course I'm just talking about this
- 3:47whole region. But the folks in Texas. We've got a lot of people
- 3:53that listen in Texas, a lot of people that listen in Virginia. So
- 3:57that's, you know, fantasticppreciate that very much. So wherever you're listening,
- 4:00this may apply to you. But I'm speaking specifically now to the folks that
- 4:06listen that are in the Chattahoochee Valley area, that are in Columbus and different
- 4:12parts of this because I don't think all of I don't know, maybe it
- 4:14is all, but it's the subject of littering. It's I just feel like,
- 4:23I know, we go in these phases of things, just certain areas,
- 4:30certain roadways, certain strips of roadways just being absolutely trashed regularly, and
- 4:38I see people sometimes out cleaning them up, and I just it looks like
- 4:42just citizens, which is positive to me. That's reassuring that there are people
- 4:46that are taking the time to stop and clean them up. Maybe people that
- 4:50live in those areas. Maybe that's why. Maybe it's somebody who drives past
- 4:55them regularly and they want to take care of it. I drove of doing
- 5:00some shopping over the weekend. There was a point when I drove in one
- 5:05particular area sort of near the airport, the Warm Springs Connector area. I
- 5:12was headed up to the Whittlesey for some shopping up in that area, and
- 5:20there was a recliner just sitting in the median in the middle of the road
- 5:26on that Warm Springs Connector a recliner just sitting there. I don't know the
- 5:31story behind the recliner. I'd like to think that there's some fantastic story that
- 5:35goes with why there was a recliner sitting there. I don't know if it's
- 5:40a fun story. I don't know. What I saw it as was litter,
- 5:44was garbage that maybe fell out of someone's vehicle going down the road,
- 5:47and someone just maybe moved it out of the roadway so that cars could continue
- 5:51to pass that it wouldn't be a traffic problem or a potential accident. I
- 5:59don't know. I mean be someone put it there on purpose. Maybe someone
- 6:01had been sitting in it and just watching the traffic go by, maybe you
- 6:05know, acting out late eighties early nineties music video. It looked like something
- 6:11from like a Depeche Mode video, back when songs had videos that you actually
- 6:15saw. I think they still make videos for songs. We just don't see
- 6:18them anymore so, And I just assume maybe it fell out of someone's car
- 6:26though, like back of their truck or whatever, and then someone moved it
- 6:29and you know, they didn't go back and deal with it, or maybe
- 6:31they wanted it to fall out of their truck. Maybe they were driving where
- 6:35it could fall out of the truck. Large areas of just trash scattered around.
- 6:43There's no pride in things anymore, and we know that we see that
- 6:46play out in national news. And I've talked about this thing before, but
- 6:51I can remember as a kid there was a point where we sat in school
- 6:58in one of the things that was often discussed, and this tied into the
- 7:00concept of not cheating on your school work. It tied into the concept of
- 7:05just being a generally clean person that came to school without body odor. You
- 7:12know, I'm talking about elementary school age too, people who took regular baths
- 7:16and things like that. It was in that sort of conversation that we used
- 7:19to have in school where we would talk about just taking pride in yourself,
- 7:26how you carry yourself, how you look. And I understand there's there's an
- 7:30easy especially when you're a kid, it's easy to just kind of go,
- 7:35did I take a Did I take a bath yesterday? I don't remember.
- 7:38Did I take one this morning? I didn't do it this morning. I
- 7:41think I took one yesterday. I mean, that's kids. But the reason
- 7:45that they have those conversations with you as kids is they're trying to prevent problems
- 7:49or there already is a problem, and they're trying to address it by,
- 7:53you know, dealing collectively with a group without singling out one kid. I
- 7:57don't know how they handle it now. Maybe some of our teachers who listen
- 8:01can tell me how they handle it, but I would assume they try their
- 8:03best not to single it out with one kid. But I remember those conversations
- 8:07we talked about taking pride in yourself and how you conduct yourself. Next came
- 8:15taking pride in your family, taking pride in your home and the people that
- 8:20were there with you and wanting to do well for yourself, but also wanting
- 8:24to do well for them and make them proud. And those sorts of things.
- 8:28Next came you know, your school or your community, and then it
- 8:33went on up. You know, you wanted your city to be something that
- 8:35you could be proud of, You wanted your state to be something you could
- 8:39be proud of, You wanted your country to be something you could be proud
- 8:41of. And I just we know that that mindset is gone. This idea
- 8:48of people trying to better themselves or people trying to act a certain way,
- 8:56conduct themselves a certain way, has been deemed by many racist. It's been
- 9:03deemed some sort of variation of you know, colonialism because somehow basically pushing some
- 9:16sort of you know, European ideals on people of hey, take a bath,
- 9:24Hey, you know, conduct yourself within a certain code of conduct with
- 9:30a certain amount of morality is somehow a racist thing to ask of people that
- 9:35aren't European in nature. So there's some people who say that there's some people
- 9:39who push that mentality. We also know that it's gone beyond even that.
- 9:46It's expanded now into this national problem. We have this cancer that we have
- 9:52as a country where if you want something and it doesn't belong to you,
- 9:58but you want it. There's a lot of people now who have this mindset
- 10:03of well, I'm just going to take it and we're going to let insurance
- 10:05work it out. We're going to let somebody else have to deal with it
- 10:09because I want it and I don't have it, and if I just take
- 10:15it, then someone else will sort out all that other stuff later, whether
- 10:20it's through insurance. That's why you have insurance. Isn't it as a business
- 10:24so that I can just take things and you can get it replaced later.
- 10:26You're not out anything, it doesn't hurt you in any way. And see,
- 10:28that's not how insurance works. Not to mention the fact that you're at
- 10:33the very least you're stealing from insurance. So we know that this is a
- 10:39problem. Crimes that are committed, violent crimes that are committed, crimes that
- 10:43are happening basically in black communities, black on black crime. We hear about
- 10:48that all the time, and it's just sort of blown off. As you
- 10:52know, we're not going to even cover that. That's not something that we're
- 10:54going to discuss. It happens in major cities Atlanta, Chicago, we hear
- 11:01about it all the time, but we only hear about it from certain places.
- 11:05You don't hear about it from all places. We hear about it a
- 11:07lot here in our community, but it's really just sort of it's just news.
- 11:15This is just what happens. You know, three or four shootings had
- 11:18happened in the first four days of this new year, right out of the
- 11:20gate. It was just right away, just people getting shot. So it
- 11:26doesn't surprise me that people don't care. They just throw their fast food trash
- 11:33out into the street. They throw their cigarettes. Still, it's a disgusting
- 11:39habit. And I talked about cigarettes the other day. I was largely talking
- 11:41about weed, which, by the way, while doing some shopping over the
- 11:46weekend, employees in the large box store that I was in reeked of weed.
- 11:54Reeked of it like they had just maybe smoked it on break or before
- 11:58coming to work. I don't know. It probably fits into the numbing thing
- 12:01we were talking about they're trying to Last week, we were talking about that,
- 12:05and I just feel like it doesn't surprise me because again, people are
- 12:11having a hard time figuring out how to just get through the day, and
- 12:15if they have to get through the day and they have to go to a
- 12:16job, and they have to be there at their job and function. And
- 12:20that's not new, but it certainly feels like it's more widespread. So what
- 12:26can we do as a community when we have all of those things stacked against
- 12:31us? And one of the basic things that affects us is things like littering.
- 12:35I don't like looking at it. I'm sick of looking at it.
- 12:39And I don't understand why more people aren't sick of looking at it. So
- 12:43the disgusting habit like smoking, deal with your cigarette butts at your own place.
- 12:50That's what cars have ash trays. I don't want my car to stink.
- 12:52I don't want to see cigarette butts. I see them all the time
- 12:58parking lots. They get thrown out on my street, in front of my
- 13:03house. I see them. We walk our dog. Our dog's always trying
- 13:07to grab one as he walks by because he thinks it's something. He knows
- 13:11it's a game. Can I get it without them noticing? And then eventually
- 13:13he spits it out? But again, why is that still a thing?
- 13:20I don't understand? And I talk all the time about. I don't want
- 13:24to see laws enforced. I don't think laws really should even be in place
- 13:28for things that don't involve hurting other people. I'm an advocate for minimal government
- 13:37interference, but littering, to me, is a real problem. That's something
- 13:41that does affect us. It affects our ability to have pride in ourselves and
- 13:46our families and our neighborhoods and our city and our state. It's an epidemic
- 13:52in this area. It's really bad. And it feels like we go through
- 13:56a phase where it starts to get a little bit better, and then it
- 13:58gets worse, and it's worse again. Right now, it's awful. It's
- 14:03awful. There's a recliner. I guess it's still there. I don't know.
- 14:07I haven't been out this morning. I'll go buy that area at some
- 14:11point this week and I'll pass there and we'll see if it's still there.
- 14:16And I don't know why it's there. I don't know why it's still there.
- 14:18Am I going to stop and get it? No, I don't know
- 14:20why it's there. And that's not really my area to deal with. And
- 14:28I understand. I could roll up my sleeves and put on some rubber gloves
- 14:31and clean things up. But I try to clean up things in my area.
- 14:35I clean trash up over the holiday break in my neighborhood. It was
- 14:41in a neighbor's yard that clearly had driven past it many times. I saw
- 14:46them drive past it and they didn't stop to get it out of their own
- 14:48yard. I did for them because my thinking was, they're never going to
- 14:52get it, so I'll clean it up because I'm taking pride in this particular
- 14:58area that I'm in. If they don't care and it doesn't bother them,
- 15:01it's never going to get cleaned up. And that's a concern for me.
- 15:07So why can't we enforce that? Why are we so concerned about enforcing certain
- 15:13laws but not others. We're concerned about enforcing seat belt laws, but we're
- 15:18not concerned about litter laws. If we are, I haven't, I don't
- 15:22know. I know people that have been stopped for not wearing their seat belt,
- 15:24or I know people that have been stopped because someone thought they might have
- 15:31been touching their phone while they were at a red light. I've seen I
- 15:33know people who've been stopped for changing a lane without turning on their indicator.
- 15:41When there wasn't a car over there. You know, theydn't turn their blinker
- 15:43on. I understand it's technically a law, then you're supposed to do it,
- 15:50But that's a pretty nitpicky law when you can just sit at any corner
- 15:54of any street in Columbus and watch people just throw trash out, cigarette butts
- 16:00or whatever. You can just watch it happen. I see it happen all
- 16:03the time. And what am I supposed to do about it? And I'll
- 16:07go a step further. Another thing that happened to me over the weekend is
- 16:11we were in Uptown, Columbus and I was backing out of a parking space
- 16:18in an area where it's not really easy to see the cars that are behind
- 16:22you because there's other cars in an area you know they're coming in both directions
- 16:26really and the the area where I was backing up to go forward, it
- 16:33was a red light. So I thought, well, if I can back
- 16:36out here, you know, slowly back out like you normally do and look
- 16:38back. But the car that pulled up behind me proceeded to blow their horn
- 16:44for twenty seconds, angry because they were in the right in their mind and
- 16:49couldn't bother to just let me out, and they pulled up one car in
- 16:53front of me and stopped. Because it was a red light. It was
- 16:57more important to them to be one car in front of me than it was
- 17:02to just help me and let me back out of the parking space that I
- 17:06could see. Now, the next car let me out, and then I
- 17:08pulled up to the next car and was right behind the car that leaned on
- 17:11its horn at me. Now I'm an adult, I can shake it off.
- 17:15I'm not someone who's going to cause a scene. I'm familiar with the
- 17:18particular car. When I got behind it, I recognized the license plate because
- 17:23it's a car that I see a couple of mornings a week. I see
- 17:29it regularly, My fifteen year old and I see it regularly. So I'm
- 17:36just curious, when did we stop that part of society. We don't look
- 17:41out for the ground around us. We just throw a trash out. But
- 17:44when did we stop just trying to look out for each other? I mean,
- 17:48who wouldn't want somebody to cut them a little slack. It's a tough
- 17:52area for anybody to back out of. Why not just help them back out
- 17:55of it? But you see it all the time now, in parking lots
- 17:57and everywhere. We've just lost our empathy. We've lost our ability to have
- 18:00any sort of compassion for each other, and we've really lost our ability to
- 18:04take care of our city, take care of everything around us. And it's
- 18:11getting worse. Feels like it's getting worse. Like I said, it gets
- 18:14a little better and then it gets much worse. So I don't know what
- 18:17can we do. How do we make it better? How do we discourage
- 18:21people from just throwing trash everywhere? And how it should come down to our
- 18:26law enforcement. Shouldn't it shouldn't they be the ones that are policing it.
- 18:30Shouldn't it be something that our city takes care of. I'd love to know
- 18:36that there was something being done about it. I would love to think that
- 18:38it's as important as making sure that someone driving down the road in their own
- 18:45vehicle doesn't have their seat belt on that gets stopped. I would think that
- 18:49the litter is a bigger problem than that if it's a grown adult in a
- 18:53car. Today's show brought to you by Columbus State Universities, Coca Cola Space
- 18:57Science Center and Firing and Educating the Youth and future STEM leaders and STEM career
- 19:06holders that really of all ages. I mean they do it for school age
- 19:11kids as school age kids visit the Coca Cola Space Science Center, but they
- 19:15also do it through their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy,
- 19:21physics, and the careers in space and STEM fields are booming right now.
- 19:26And you can learn more about maybe getting your degree on their website CCSSC dot
- 19:34org. While you're there, also check out some of their upcoming programs.
- 19:38They've got this incredible collaboration that they do with the Schwob School of Music from
- 19:45Columbus State University called Music under the Dome. It's unlike any concert experience that
- 19:51you can get anywhere else. It's one of those things that when you're watching
- 19:53it in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus,
- 19:57Georgia. I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens right here
- 20:03in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca Cola Space Science Center and the new
- 20:10season of Music under the Dome. Check out upcoming dates for the shows and
- 20:15also check out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up. Where you can get
- 20:18outside sometimes you do it at the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get
- 20:23outside somewhere outside the city lights. You don't want any light interference, and
- 20:27you can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night events also on their website.
- 20:32It's CCSSC dot org. As Sean Crusan says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org,
- 20:40I just remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science Center CCSSC
- 20:45dot org. Today's show brought to you by Overhead Door Company of Columbus.
- 20:49For all of your garage door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have
- 20:56regular maintenance that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance on anything
- 21:00that has parts that move and have electronics. The folks at Overhead Door Company
- 21:06of Columbus can take care of square in that away for you, and while
- 21:10they're there, you can always ask them questions about some of the maybe cosmetic
- 21:14changes you'd like to make to your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't
- 21:18quite what you want it to be and you need some repair work done to
- 21:22the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe
- 21:26it's making a noise when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
- 21:30sort of insulation issue that you've got. With colder or warmer weather, sometimes
- 21:34that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation where
- 21:40you'd like to add a screen door to your garage door system that you can
- 21:44put down and you can use your garage space as a sort of outdoor but
- 21:48indoor. You know, if you like to work on your own cars in
- 21:52there, or maybe you just want a little man cavid you'd like to be
- 21:55able to open the door up and not invite all the insects in. They
- 21:57can do that for you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
- 22:02There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped inside your garage
- 22:06and your garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help, And
- 22:10they do those as well. Seven oh six thy five eight forty five hundred

- 22:21Carol Morning Show. Right after the break, well, did you check out
- 22:33a dating app over the weekend, specifically yesterday? Well, apparently yesterday is
- 22:40the day that they refer to as Dating Sunday, and they say that January
- 22:45seventh the busiest day of the year for dating apps. On a dating Sunday,
- 22:52number of messages sent on Tender increases by twenty two percent, users respond
- 22:56nineteen point four minutes faster than any other of the year, and the number
- 23:02of likes on the app increased by eighteen point two percent. Whether it's from
- 23:07grief they got over the holidays about their relationship status, or a resolution to
- 23:11find love in the new year, or the fact that Valentine's Day is like
- 23:15five weeks away, something like that. It says lots of daters did some
- 23:21searching over the weekend, specifically yesterday. So I don't know if this just
- 23:26means it kicks it off, if it's just the overall busiest day, But
- 23:29I suppose if a lot of people were on it yesterday, there's probably gonna
- 23:33be a lot of people still on it today. So if you weren't one
- 23:36of those people, but you're looking, this could be your time to do
- 23:40that. You know, they had the breakup period that happens after Thanksgiving and
- 23:44then before you know, two weeks out before Christmas. We talked about that
- 23:48weeks ago, like a month ago, I guess, and then this is
- 23:53the point where people are trying to get in a relationship. I guess by
- 23:56Valentine's Day, So maybe that's what's going on. Another story to revisit.
- 24:02We talked about this a while back, but remember we talked about the dog
- 24:07bed made for humans. This thing's called the Plufel five hundred dollars human dog
- 24:12bed. Well here's what happened over the holidays. It became one of Google's
- 24:19one hundred trending holiday gifts. Interest went up to went up by sixteen hundred
- 24:25and fifty percent last year, and the fluffy sixty eight inch round bed sits
- 24:30on the floor, big enough for people, pets, or both, was
- 24:34a huge gift item. At the very least, people were looking at it,
- 24:38whether they were buying it or not. I looked at it when we
- 24:41talked about it here on the show, So I guess maybe I was part
- 24:45of that sixteen one hundred and fifty percent whatever that it went up, and
- 24:51maybe you were too if you had checked it out after I talked about it.
- 24:53But all right, so straight out of the holiday season, you may
- 24:56not be planning a vacation right now, but try experts suggests that you should
- 25:00think about it because now is the cheapest time to fly. According to online
- 25:06booking site Hopper, domestic airfares right now averaging two hundred and fifty three dollars,
- 25:11which is eleven percent down from last month six percent down from a year
- 25:15ago. It's even cheaper than pre pandemic levels and will be for the next
- 25:21few months. A spokesperson for Hopper says now's a great time for travelers to
- 25:23take advantage of low prices and book those trips. Fares will rise into late
- 25:29spring and spring break and summer travel period start to heat up. So yeah,
- 25:34if you, you know, don't have kids in school or they're homeschooled,
- 25:40or you have the ability just to up and go on a trip in
- 25:44the middle of January or early February, this is what we're saying, is
- 25:48that this is a time for you to do that and take advantage of it.
- 25:52I guess. So, yeah, there you go. All right.
- 25:56If you haven't by this taking your Christmas decorations down yet, you probably should
- 26:03have because officially the day to take them down at the latest was a Friday,
- 26:10because that was the twelfth day of Christmas and that's when a lot of
- 26:15people, I guess, take some people take them down. A lot of
- 26:17people do it by New Years. That used to be the thing I know
- 26:19when I was a kid. You get it down by New Years. And
- 26:22there's some superstition involved in that where it's bad luck if they're still up in
- 26:26the New Year. But and I'm not really a superstitious person, but we
- 26:32just typically get them down somewhere between Christmas and New Years. This year we
- 26:38did a little bit earlier than we normally do. And I mentioned that we're
- 26:42in the middle of a kitchen renovation in our home and so we had to
- 26:48get ready for that. That was one of the things that we had to
- 26:52prep On top of that, I had COVID, So it was a bunch
- 26:53of things going on at once, Just a whole bunch of stuff going on.
- 27:00Kitchen renovation still ongoing and will be for a while now, but we're
- 27:04we're in the phase where we had to be out of the house for a
- 27:07couple of days and now we're back in the house. And anyway, so
- 27:11thankfully my studio wasn't impacted in any way by the renovation, so I was
- 27:17able to continue to work all the last week so there's that, all right.
- 27:22And finally, if you are someone who's looking to get into shape in
- 27:30the new year, if you think, oh this is uh, I want
- 27:33to you know, get healthier. That's one of the renov resolutions a lot
- 27:37of people make. Strava. Is that how you say? It's Strava not
- 27:41Strava. The Running, Hiking, cycling app released its annual report on exercise
- 27:48trends, and some of this may be a little surprising. The top uploaded
- 27:52exercise to the app was running. Number two was a bike ride including e
- 27:57bikes, number three rewalking. At number four was trail running. So maybe
- 28:04you would think that the gen Z athletes would log the fastest runs and rides,
- 28:10but they also log the shortest average workouts. Gen xers were far more
- 28:14likely to become king or Queen of the mountain, saying that they had the
- 28:17fastest time on any given segment, and seventy six percent said their pets helped
- 28:22them out on to get out the door to do their exercising, So that's
- 28:27a motivation. That's another thing maybe too, because the pet needs the exercise,
- 28:33and sometimes they give you that look like you're gonna take me walking today?
- 28:36What are we doing, Are we going for a walk? What's going
- 28:38on there? It doesn't surprise me, though, that gen X that's my
- 28:42group, and it doesn't surprise me that this is we're at that age where
- 28:47we have to do this, we have to exercise. We're trying to make
- 28:52everything good for the next decade or so. We're trying to get something,
- 28:56lay some kind of foundation for it. So it's not to me. You
- 29:02would think though, that the gen Z people would be a little bit more
- 29:04uh, you know, they'd be a little bit more active, a little
- 29:10bit. I don't know, they got nothing to prove. I guess maybe
- 29:12we're the generation that still thinks we have something to prove. That'll do it
- 29:17for this Monday edition of the show. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons.
