Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews you need to start
0:05
Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show.
0:10
Speaker 2: Monday morning, a third day of February. I'm Wes, thanks
0:15
Speaker 2: for joining me back in the radio days. This would
0:20
Speaker 2: be the morning that we would play I Got You
0:23
Speaker 2: Babe by Sonny and Cher, just to relive a little
0:28
Speaker 2: bit of fun from Groundhog Day. So, and I know
0:34
Speaker 2: that this is one of those things where you get
0:37
Speaker 2: some people that get real touchy about this when you
0:39
Speaker 2: start talking about the groundhog. Obviously the groundhog that everybody
0:45
Speaker 2: when they're talking about Groundhog Day, they're typically referring Punk's
0:50
Speaker 2: tawny Phil and he saw his shadow back into back
0:58
Speaker 2: into his home. Six more weeks of winter. The forecast
1:02
Speaker 2: certainly indicates that looks like we do have some more
1:06
Speaker 2: pretty severe cold weather coming another polar vortex. So everybody
1:13
Speaker 2: just be aware of that. There were a few people
1:15
Speaker 2: that seemed surprised that anything in the southeast happened. And
1:20
Speaker 2: I understand if you base it just on history, you
1:22
Speaker 2: base it on what we typically get. It's not common
1:26
Speaker 2: to get the kind of snow that we got to,
1:28
Speaker 2: you know, recently. But we're looking at another and it
1:32
Speaker 2: may not be snow, it may just be some some
1:34
Speaker 2: more severe cold weather, but all of that is an option,
1:37
Speaker 2: that's a possibility. It'll all be something that could happen,
1:43
Speaker 2: so just be aware. I feel like there were people
1:45
Speaker 2: that this kind of caught them by surprise, and I
1:49
Speaker 2: understand this is a different world that we live in.
1:52
Speaker 2: There was a time when you would you know, maybe
1:57
Speaker 2: you read the paper and got the forecast, maybe you
2:01
Speaker 2: you know, watched TV and got the local forecast. Maybe
2:06
Speaker 2: you you know, turned on the radio and there were
2:09
Speaker 2: actual people there that could tell you the forecast. You know,
2:14
Speaker 2: not so much in that one anymore, but you know
2:18
Speaker 2: there are some cases where you can do that, but
2:21
Speaker 2: you know there's information readily available. I'm just surprised sometimes
2:24
Speaker 2: when it catches people by surprise. And it's okay if
2:28
Speaker 2: it did. If this is where you're getting your start
2:31
Speaker 2: in the mornings, and bless you if you are, but
2:35
Speaker 2: just a heads up another polar vartex parts of the
2:37
Speaker 2: country are going to get hit again and it's something
2:40
Speaker 2: that could impact us here in the southeast. Again. That's
2:42
Speaker 2: all I'm trying to let you know. No matter where
2:44
Speaker 2: you're getting your forecast information. I'm just trying to make
2:47
Speaker 2: you aware. I have a budding meteorologist in my home.
2:52
Speaker 2: He's been talking about this next polar Vartex now since
2:57
Speaker 2: we were all inside our houses, you know, whole up
3:00
Speaker 2: with the snow or playing in the snow. He was
3:03
Speaker 2: talking about it while we were doing neighborhood walks in
3:07
Speaker 2: the snow, so just so that you know. And he
3:10
Speaker 2: was talking about the previous the snow that we got,
3:14
Speaker 2: you know, weeks before, when we didn't get snow but
3:16
Speaker 2: it looked like we might. So I'm just I try
3:19
Speaker 2: to bring you that information. We don't really typically do
3:22
Speaker 2: a lot of weather talk here, but I'm passing along
3:25
Speaker 2: something that could be useful. That's all I'm trying to do,
3:28
Speaker 2: trying to give you that heads up because caught some
3:32
Speaker 2: people by surprise last time. All right, so we're here
3:35
Speaker 2: on the third day of February, and this is the
3:39
Speaker 2: short month. This is the one that's going to just
3:41
Speaker 2: zip right by and it'll be March before we know it.
3:44
Speaker 2: A lot of things happened over the weekend and end
3:47
Speaker 2: of the week and over the weekend. First of all,
3:51
Speaker 2: it's so so difficult, and this is one of those,
4:00
Speaker 2: they're they're both sort of evolving stories, more information to
4:03
Speaker 2: learn about. But when you when you learn of something
4:06
Speaker 2: like a plane crash, to have two plane crashes to
4:10
Speaker 2: happen in a very short amount of time, it's one
4:12
Speaker 2: of those things that gets people's attention. It gets people's
4:15
Speaker 2: attention very quickly, like what's going on? What's These seem
4:18
Speaker 2: to be very different reasons for the two plane crashes,
4:24
Speaker 2: But obviously with investigations, especially on the first one, the
4:28
Speaker 2: helicopter that crashed into the American Airlines plane specifically an
4:33
Speaker 2: American Eagle flight. Uh, it's uh that that seems to
4:38
Speaker 2: be the one that they both have to be investigated.
4:42
Speaker 2: But this idea of you know, the President speaking up
4:46
Speaker 2: about it, it's something that could be prevented. Uh. He
4:49
Speaker 2: blamed DEI in some capacity for it. I think within people,
4:54
Speaker 2: of course, they want to you know, really get their
4:56
Speaker 2: feelings hurt when he says things like that question is ultimately,
5:01
Speaker 2: are the best people doing the jobs? Are the best
5:04
Speaker 2: people working at the you know, for air traffic control
5:11
Speaker 2: or the best people flying the planes are the best
5:13
Speaker 2: people involved? Obviously that's all they're digging into. All of that.
5:20
Speaker 2: They want to get answers to that completely different reasoning
5:24
Speaker 2: behind the smaller plane that crashed in Philadelphia. But those
5:29
Speaker 2: are very much going to take some time to investigate
5:34
Speaker 2: and get to get the full story on all those
5:37
Speaker 2: so and it's hard when it's a developing story and
5:41
Speaker 2: you're doing it in this format to really you know,
5:44
Speaker 2: there's things that we know now that could be very
5:46
Speaker 2: different tomorrow or in a week. The main thing though,
5:50
Speaker 2: is that obviously we continue to pray for the families
5:55
Speaker 2: of the victims in both of those cases, and obviously
6:00
Speaker 2: for anyone who is trying to get answers to why,
6:06
Speaker 2: because that's really what it comes down to, right It's
6:08
Speaker 2: why is this happening? Why did this happen? And those
6:12
Speaker 2: are the people that we have to pray for and
6:15
Speaker 2: hope for answers were being reassured. You talk about a
6:18
Speaker 2: busy start to a job. Our Secretary of Transportation, Sean Duffy,
6:25
Speaker 2: jumps in right out of the gate. He's got one incident,
6:31
Speaker 2: a crash to deal with, and then immediately after a
6:34
Speaker 2: couple of days later, he's got a second crash he's
6:36
Speaker 2: got to manage and deal with. He still assures us
6:41
Speaker 2: American skies are the safest in the world and that
6:44
Speaker 2: you know, these are isolated. So but it's a very
6:51
Speaker 2: different We've got a very different administration now. I don't know.
6:56
Speaker 2: I remember we had some horrible things happen when Pete
7:00
Speaker 2: boudhaj Edge was in this position, and you know, he
7:04
Speaker 2: just didn't it wasn't around, he was on paternity leave,
7:07
Speaker 2: he was doing things. It just feels like we have
7:12
Speaker 2: adults back in these positions again that that understand. These
7:16
Speaker 2: are jobs that require responsibility. These are jobs that require
7:21
Speaker 2: you to be at work. These are jobs that require
7:24
Speaker 2: you to show up to just show up and be
7:28
Speaker 2: at work and do the job. That's what the expectation
7:32
Speaker 2: is when you when you get these jobs. Another quick
7:34
Speaker 2: thing I want to get into mainly today, and this
7:38
Speaker 2: is the ongoing character attacks on Elon Musk, who doesn't
7:44
Speaker 2: seem to care. He seems to be just doing what
7:50
Speaker 2: he was planning to do all along. This kind of
7:54
Speaker 2: all started when you know, he decided that he was
7:58
Speaker 2: going to be reporting now President Trump as a candidate,
8:03
Speaker 2: and we knew this is where all of this was
8:10
Speaker 2: going to go. It turns into you know, they're going
8:13
Speaker 2: to call you a Nazi. They're going to call you
8:15
Speaker 2: a fascist, They're going to say all of these horrible
8:18
Speaker 2: things about you, which they started doing almost immediately. A
8:23
Speaker 2: couple of things that I feel like need to be
8:25
Speaker 2: addressed with Elon Musk, and I've had this conversation with
8:28
Speaker 2: multiple people. Elon Musk is on the spectrum. Elon Musk
8:35
Speaker 2: is weird and quirky and all of the things that
8:38
Speaker 2: come for some with being on the spectrum. Many people
8:42
Speaker 2: who are on the spectrum, they have these complicated interactions
8:49
Speaker 2: with people publicly. Elon Musk appears to be one of
8:52
Speaker 2: those people. If you're mocking him for being socially awkward,
8:57
Speaker 2: and you're mocking him for being on the spectrum, then
9:01
Speaker 2: that's a shame on you. No reason for that. I mean,
9:06
Speaker 2: this is something that absolutely qualifies as a disability. I
9:10
Speaker 2: understand Elon Musk and many others that are on the
9:15
Speaker 2: spectrum have very successful careers and lives, but social awkwardness.
9:22
Speaker 2: If you are someone who is on the spectrum and
9:24
Speaker 2: you suffer from social awkwardness, then that is the part
9:30
Speaker 2: of this that makes it a disability for you. For
9:33
Speaker 2: some Okay, I'm not going to sit here and pretend
9:36
Speaker 2: to be an expert on the subject. I'm not going
9:38
Speaker 2: to sit here and pretend to be a therapist or
9:41
Speaker 2: pretend to be, you know, working in psychiatry or psychology.
9:46
Speaker 2: That's not what I'm trying to do here. I'm just
9:48
Speaker 2: telling you, if someone is known to be on the
9:51
Speaker 2: spectrum and they're socially awkward and you're making fun of
9:54
Speaker 2: them for being socially awkward, that's your issue, not his, Okay.
10:01
Speaker 2: And I've had this conversation with people that I care about,
10:05
Speaker 2: people that would have backed him and supported him five
10:07
Speaker 2: ten years ago and sworn that he was this amazing
10:11
Speaker 2: guy who's going to save the planet with his electric cars.
10:15
Speaker 2: As soon as his politics start to slide in a
10:17
Speaker 2: different direction, the whole attitude towards him drastically changed. So yeah, yeah,
10:24
Speaker 2: he does have these moments. And you can say, well,
10:26
Speaker 2: why is he standing up in front of people and
10:29
Speaker 2: supporting a candidate at a rally or at a celebration
10:33
Speaker 2: for a win. He should be able to do that.
10:37
Speaker 2: It's not your position to ask that question. This isn't
10:40
Speaker 2: one of those situations where a candidate's like a child
10:46
Speaker 2: of a candidate or a politician who's underage, and they're
10:52
Speaker 2: very much putting themselves out there at sixteen seventeen years
10:55
Speaker 2: old and doing serious campaigning. And then people go, okay,
10:59
Speaker 2: we typically leave the kids alone. But now this kid's
11:02
Speaker 2: really popping their head up out of the out of
11:05
Speaker 2: the whack a mole machine, and now they they're they're
11:10
Speaker 2: free game. But typically even that you don't do that.
11:14
Speaker 2: I know it's tempting to just look at someone like
11:17
Speaker 2: Elon and say, Elon's just this quirky, weird, smart guy,
11:21
Speaker 2: and we're gonna make fun of him. But just take
11:26
Speaker 2: a minute, take a breath. Understand there's more going on
11:30
Speaker 2: there than just he's clearly a Nazi because he's socially awkward. Yes,
11:38
Speaker 2: at a rally, he made a hand gesture where he said,
11:43
Speaker 2: my heart goes out to all of you. He put
11:45
Speaker 2: his hand on his chest, he put his hand then
11:48
Speaker 2: out forward, and it's just become the And we talked
11:52
Speaker 2: about this. There were a number of show hosts that said, oh, well,
11:55
Speaker 2: clearly he's throwing the Hyle Hitler, he's a Nazi, he's
11:58
Speaker 2: a fascist. A lot of people do very similar things.
12:03
Speaker 2: Very similar doesn't always automatically make you a Nazi. It
12:07
Speaker 2: is possible to do something. I remember we talked about this,
12:12
Speaker 2: this is a radio thing years ago when people were
12:16
Speaker 2: saying that if you held out the okay symbol, held
12:22
Speaker 2: up okay with your fingers and you said okay, that's
12:27
Speaker 2: always meant okay. But for some people the three fingers
12:32
Speaker 2: up is a W and then the thumb and index
12:37
Speaker 2: finger making the circle, and then your hand that then
12:41
Speaker 2: comes down makes a pee and that means white power.
12:45
Speaker 2: And people that were holding up the okay sign to
12:47
Speaker 2: people to say I'm okay or okay, that turned quickly
12:52
Speaker 2: into those people are secretly telling everybody that they are
12:56
Speaker 2: white supremacists. Remember that that was a thing, And I questioned,
13:01
Speaker 2: then why do we let people take away something that
13:06
Speaker 2: used to mean something else? Why could you take that away?
13:10
Speaker 2: How can you determine? I mean, if someone walks out
13:14
Speaker 2: holds their hand in the air exactly the way Hitler did,
13:17
Speaker 2: and says hile Hitler, then yes, yes, at that point,
13:21
Speaker 2: I think it's safe to assume that you understand completely
13:24
Speaker 2: what they mean. If someone comes out and does an
13:27
Speaker 2: awkward wave and you can pause it and you can say, well,
13:32
Speaker 2: this is what he meant by that, and then You
13:36
Speaker 2: can do the same thing with politicians that you like
13:39
Speaker 2: and say, well, they didn't mean that. He meant it.
13:41
Speaker 2: We know that he meant it because we know who
13:43
Speaker 2: he is. We know what he's about. He's South African,
13:45
Speaker 2: we know what he is, we know who he's all about. Anyway,
13:48
Speaker 2: all of that's happened, and now as he and Doge
13:52
Speaker 2: are really starting to dig in, by the way, digging
13:55
Speaker 2: in over the weekend, what everybody else is off. I
13:59
Speaker 2: love the way that he decided to frame this on
14:06
Speaker 2: x Elon says very few in the bureaucracy actually work
14:11
Speaker 2: on the weekend, so it's like the opposing team just
14:14
Speaker 2: leaves the field for two days, working the weekend as
14:17
Speaker 2: a superpower. Yeah. Yeah, he jumped in feet first and
14:25
Speaker 2: he is over the weekend, was working hard. Here's one
14:28
Speaker 2: of the things that he posted on x The Doge
14:32
Speaker 2: team discovered, among other things, that payment approval officers at
14:36
Speaker 2: the Treasury Department were instructed to always approve payments even
14:41
Speaker 2: to known fraudulent or terrorist groups. They literally never denied
14:46
Speaker 2: a payment in their entire career, not even once. Robbie
14:53
Speaker 2: Starbuck posting under that the highest ranking Treasury if David
15:01
Speaker 2: a Liebrick is resigning rather than complying with a request
15:05
Speaker 2: by DOGE for access to audit where they've spent trillions
15:09
Speaker 2: of dollars a year. Why would career bureaucrats fear an
15:14
Speaker 2: audit by Elon Musk and DOGE to see where we
15:17
Speaker 2: can save money. That is a great question. And this
15:22
Speaker 2: is what it comes down to. And this is where
15:24
Speaker 2: you can start talking about the fascism. You can start
15:26
Speaker 2: talking about the Nazis. You can start talking about how Hitler,
15:30
Speaker 2: you can start talking about He's he's weird, He's so weird.
15:35
Speaker 2: Remember we went to the whole weird conversation that the
15:38
Speaker 2: left tried to throw on people. Boy are they all weird?
15:43
Speaker 2: It's about money. They there's these politicians that they don't
15:48
Speaker 2: like because they're really or I'm sorry, these politicians don't
15:51
Speaker 2: like these people. People like Musk, people like Vivek, people
15:56
Speaker 2: like cash Betel, the people that are trying to get
16:03
Speaker 2: involved and actually have an impact on overturning the stones,
16:10
Speaker 2: overturning a few rocks and finding out what's going on underneath.
16:14
Speaker 2: And people when their money is going to be affected,
16:17
Speaker 2: that's when they get nervous. If you watched The Sopranos,
16:22
Speaker 2: if you watched Breaking Bad, if you watch some of
16:24
Speaker 2: these shows where they really spot like the criminal underworld.
16:31
Speaker 2: Nobody likes it when you start messing with their money.
16:35
Speaker 2: Nobody likes it when you mess with their money, and
16:39
Speaker 2: they'll do anything they can to expose you. They want
16:42
Speaker 2: to make sure that you are something that even if
16:46
Speaker 2: they got to make it up, they get desperate. They
16:48
Speaker 2: don't want their money affected. Are you kidding me? This
16:50
Speaker 2: is where they make all their extra money. This is
16:53
Speaker 2: how they go from Hey, I've got this humble salary
16:58
Speaker 2: as a public servant working in Congress to multi millionaire
17:04
Speaker 2: in just a couple of years. Some of them do,
17:07
Speaker 2: not all of them do. And then somebody's going to
17:10
Speaker 2: disrupt that. And it's not just making them money, it's
17:14
Speaker 2: making other people money. In some cases might have people
17:19
Speaker 2: that are kind of leaning on them a little bit.
17:21
Speaker 2: You need to shut this guy up. Everybody needs to
17:24
Speaker 2: shut this guy up. Elon doesn't seem to care. And
17:28
Speaker 2: don't get me wrong, I'm not one of these people
17:31
Speaker 2: who's going to sit here and say that every bit
17:33
Speaker 2: of all of this there's nothing questionable about it. I mean,
17:38
Speaker 2: Elon's sticking into the treasury, there's some contracts in there
17:42
Speaker 2: that were with companies that he does business competitively against.
17:47
Speaker 2: It's a fair question to start asking. But as was
17:52
Speaker 2: pointed out in this series of messages, Mario Knawfall says
18:00
Speaker 2: on x Doge's speed running government reform, four billion dollar
18:04
Speaker 2: a day cuts could start this weekend. Bureaucracy never saw
18:09
Speaker 2: it coming. And he's making the point Elon's doing all
18:14
Speaker 2: of this. Well, they're not even at work. They'll come
18:15
Speaker 2: to work today this morning and say, wait, what's going on?
18:19
Speaker 2: What happened over the weekend. I mean, some of them
18:21
Speaker 2: probably know by now as they're starting the day. Maybe
18:25
Speaker 2: they found out at some point yesterday all of this
18:28
Speaker 2: was happening. But shining a light on these things, and
18:33
Speaker 2: most Americans, hey, if this is the way that we're
18:36
Speaker 2: going to finally, I don't know, start to get some
18:40
Speaker 2: of our money back that's being just spent on ridiculous things,
18:44
Speaker 2: some of the absolutely ridiculous things that our hard earned
18:47
Speaker 2: money is being spent on. Hey, go Elon, shine the light.
18:53
Speaker 2: Let us know all the ways that you can save
18:55
Speaker 2: us all some money. Please please and do it on
18:58
Speaker 2: the weekends. If that's what you want to do. Today's
19:01
Speaker 2: show brought to you by Columbus State University's Coca Cola

Speaker 2: Columbus State University called Music under the Dome. It's unlike
19:54
Speaker 2: any concert experience that you can get anywhere else. It's
19:58
Speaker 2: one of those things that when you're watching it in Columbus, Georgia,
20:01
Speaker 2: you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia. I mean,
20:04

21:30
Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
21:34

21:37
Speaker 2: issue that you've got With colder or warmer weather, sometimes
21:41
Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
21:44
Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
21:47
Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
21:50
Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
21:53
Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
21:56
Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
21:58
Speaker 2: you just want a little and cavid you'd like to
22:01
Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
22:02
Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
22:05
Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
22:08
Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
22:11
Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
22:14
Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
22:17
Speaker 2: as well. Seven oh six three five eight forty five

Speaker 2: O dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show. Right
22:27
Speaker 2: after the break well, I didn't finish my thoughts about
22:39
Speaker 2: Groundhog Day, and what I was gonna say is there's
22:41
Speaker 2: a sort of universally accepted one in Georgia, you know,
22:45
Speaker 2: there's we also have our own groundhog. Many states have
22:47
Speaker 2: them around the country, but the main groundhog that people
22:51
Speaker 2: focus their attention on, especially since the movie Punkstany Phil
22:56
Speaker 2: and the folks at Peta though, say that they wish
23:03
Speaker 2: that the folks officials at Gobbler's Knob in Punk Satawny
23:10
Speaker 2: would leave the groundhog alone and not grab them and
23:13
Speaker 2: display them out on TV. And they suggest that a
23:16
Speaker 2: weather reveal cake would be the better use, you know,
23:20
Speaker 2: like the baby gender reveals. I guess if you have
23:24
Speaker 2: a cake and you cut it open and it's I
23:26
Speaker 2: don't know, blue is more winter, And if it's red,
23:30
Speaker 2: maybe it's going to be an early spring. I don't know.
23:33
Speaker 2: I don't know. A green maybe it would make more sense. Anyway,
23:36
Speaker 2: I don't know that that's coming. Oh pink, apparently, is
23:40
Speaker 2: what they're saying. Why would you do the baby colors?
23:43
Speaker 2: It doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make it. Why
23:46
Speaker 2: would you use blue and pink? Why not blue and
23:49
Speaker 2: green or anyway? Why would you not just let everybody
23:53
Speaker 2: see what a groundhog looks like? Does anybody see a
23:55
Speaker 2: groundhog other than on Groundhog Day or when they're watching
23:57
Speaker 2: the movie. When it comes to dating, you may want
24:00
Speaker 2: to keep the fact that you're vegan or vegetarian off
24:03
Speaker 2: your profile. A study from the University of Warsaw found
24:06
Speaker 2: that overall, dating profiles that mention being a vegetarian were
24:10
Speaker 2: rated less favorably than those that did not mention dietary preferences.
24:15
Speaker 2: And it's not just being a vegetarian that is dating turnoffs,
24:20
Speaker 2: according to the study, it's why someone is vegetarian or vegan.
24:25
Speaker 2: Those who did so for health reasons were seen as
24:28
Speaker 2: less datable than those who were just plant based for
24:31
Speaker 2: ethical or environmental concerns. Researchers believe this may be because
24:35
Speaker 2: when people don't eat meat for health reasons, it seems
24:38
Speaker 2: more self centered than doing it out of concern for others.
24:44
Speaker 2: It's a little tricky. It's a little tricky, is it
24:47
Speaker 2: you're doing it for yes, survival, if you have to
24:50
Speaker 2: do it for help. The study found that being vegetarian
24:54
Speaker 2: also shaped out people saw masculinity and femininity For example,
24:58
Speaker 2: guys who picked veggie burgers were seeing is less manly,
25:01
Speaker 2: while women who skipped meat were viewed as less feminine
25:03
Speaker 2: compared to their meat eating peers. That one makes more
25:10
Speaker 2: sense to me than judging someone because they're not eating
25:13
Speaker 2: meat because it's for health reasons. I mean, I guess
25:17
Speaker 2: I get it people would do it. It just means
25:19
Speaker 2: they would probably not be people you'd want to be
25:21
Speaker 2: dating anyway, right, And of course this idea of telling
25:27
Speaker 2: someone that you're vegetarian or vegan on your dating profile,
25:31
Speaker 2: you're almost certainly going to tell everybody. Why is that
25:35
Speaker 2: a stereotype? I don't know. I just feel like people
25:37
Speaker 2: who are they explain it a lot. Although I have
25:40
Speaker 2: a friend who was vegan for a very long time,
25:44
Speaker 2: I've got friends that are vegetarian now. They don't really
25:45
Speaker 2: talk about it. They just eat what they want to
25:47
Speaker 2: eat and make their own decisions and do it. But
25:50
Speaker 2: there are a lot of people who seem to really
25:52
Speaker 2: want to talk about it. Can a batter toxic relationship
25:55
Speaker 2: cause your skin to break out? Amateur medical experts on
25:59
Speaker 2: social media say yes. There's a new trend where people
26:02
Speaker 2: post before and after photo showing a face full of
26:06
Speaker 2: acne during a bad relationship, clearer skin after the relationship.
26:10
Speaker 2: While legit dermatologists say that stress can definitely contribute to acne,
26:16
Speaker 2: they caution that not all acne is the result of
26:19
Speaker 2: a toxic relationship and could be the result of other things. Yeah,
26:24
Speaker 2: that's true, that's definitely true. But if you're in a
26:28
Speaker 2: relationship and it's causing you to break out a lot,
26:32
Speaker 2: I mean, I think you know what you gotta do.
26:34
Speaker 2: Think you know what you gotta do, right, it's a
26:37
Speaker 2: bad relationship. I think you know what you gotta do,
26:41
Speaker 2: all right. Let's Subway has announced following up on the
26:48
Speaker 2: foot long chocolate chip cookie. They're now doing a foot
26:52
Speaker 2: long Oreo cookie. It's a five dollars cookie. It features
26:56
Speaker 2: Subways chocolate chip cookie dough, topped with Oreo pieces and
26:59
Speaker 2: vanilla cream and served warm. The Oreo foot long available now,
27:04
Speaker 2: but for a limited time. You need to check the
27:07
Speaker 2: locations and make sure that they have it, you know,
27:10
Speaker 2: just assume it when you get there. You need to
27:12
Speaker 2: double check and make sure they've got it. But hopefully
27:15
Speaker 2: it would be at all of your locations where you
27:17
Speaker 2: buy your really long hot dog shaped cookies that are
27:22
Speaker 2: like a foot long one quick thing for folks in
27:25
Speaker 2: the Chattooche Valley area. The passing of legendary TV news
27:31
Speaker 2: anchor Dick McMichael. Very sad to hear of his passing.
27:36
Speaker 2: He was still pretty active on social media making posts
27:40
Speaker 2: and things up until I guess he went into hospice.
27:43
Speaker 2: I know he was in hospice for a few days.
27:45
Speaker 2: Ninety four years old. A true legend and someone that
27:49
Speaker 2: I definitely looked up to and respected for his long
27:54
Speaker 2: career working and broadcasting in his service to the community
27:58
Speaker 2: in that role. So he will definitely be missed. Ninety
28:01
Speaker 2: four years old. All right, that'll do it for this
