  Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, seventh day of January. I'm Wes. Thanks for
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: joining me as we zip on through this week. Many
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: in the area kids going back to school today, back
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: to school yesterday. We talked about that a little bit
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: on yesterday's show. One thing I intentionally didn't talk about
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: yesterday because I really wanted to see how things played
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: out yesterday so that we could talk about it today,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: and that was certification of Trump's when it was a
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: historic moment, at least for us in a number of ways.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: This having a vice president who was running for president,
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: who was presiding over the certification as the VP and
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: technically the president of the Senate. So she was there,
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: Kamala Harris presiding over the official certification of her loss
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: and had that moment where she was able to read
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: out her name and how many electoral votes she received.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: I know that's got to be bittersweet. Still kind of
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: a cool moment for her, I think. I mean, even
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: though she lost, I think, you know, I know, nobody
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: likes to go back and revisit the loss necessarily, but
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: kind of a cool moment. I would think to be
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: able to say, hey, I was able to do that
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: as vice president, and just a few things to kind
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: of go with this. This is the week that we're waiting.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: We've been waiting for the witch hunt case on Trump,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: and I don't know of any other way to put it.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: This attempt to smear him on the tenth by the
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: judge Marshawn who is ready to do the sentencing in
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: this case that any other time this has been something
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: that a politician has been convicted of is first of all,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: it's a misdemeanor. Second of all, it falls within the
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: statute of limitations. It also typically is slap on the wrist,
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: pay your fine, move on. That was the case when
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: this happened with Hillary Clinton, It's the case when it
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: happened Barack Obama, It's been the case when it's happened
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: to many others. A book keeping error that ultimately they
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: saw an opportunity to say, we're going to try this
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: in this We're going to come up with an excuse,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: a reason that we can try this as a felony case,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: and then we're going to use this to keep him
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: off the ballot and keep him from running for president
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: and smear his name. Think about the number of times
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: that they have used that are tempted to use that
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: against him, back to his first term. We're going to
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: impeach him, well, and impeach him for something that ended
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: up being a complete sham, right, a complete sham. But
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: they were ready to move ahead, and what they wanted
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: was to say he'd been impeached. That's all they wanted.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: And they wanted to find the Republicans where the cracks
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: in the armor were right. They wanted to find the
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Mitt Romneys, and that's what they wanted to do. They've
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: spent the last eight years looking for the Liz Cheney's
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: and the Mitt Romneys and the people that were going
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: to turn on him. That's what they were looking for, thinking, well,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: this is going to be useful for us, and it
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: hasn't been. And then of course on his way out,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: they decide we're going to impeach him again. You know,
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: there's no reason to move forward with it. He's leaving.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: But as I was told, even by friends, people that
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: I care about, people that I love, friends, well, if
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: this keeps them off the ballot, it's worth it. It's
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: so disappointing to hear that I understand if you don't
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: like someone, I get it. But this is the difference,
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: I guess in sports between saying I don't like this team,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: I hope they lose, and I don't like this team,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: I hope they all break their ankles. I mean, that's
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: kind of the difference. Like in sports, you want them
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: to have their opportunity to run and compete and you know,
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: whatever it is, and you know, football or baseball, you
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: don't want them to have broken ankles. I guess if
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: I didn't assume that the sport was chess when I
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: said run, but it's chess a sport. But my point
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: is you don't want to see the competition go away.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: If you really truly believe in whatever it is, you
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: want it to play out and you want it to
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: And going back to politics and what this want, it's
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: an opportunity for a former president who you know, regardless
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: of how you feel about it, ultimately in the end,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: he lost. We'll get back to January sixth in a second,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: but you know, to have an opportunity to run again
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: and let the American people decide. And there was this
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: fear somewhere deep down, what if they decide to re
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: elect him, and then they did. So they were right
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: to be afraid of it, apparently, but their methods in
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: trying to get rid of him were wrong. So this
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: was the week when they were getting their last chance.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: This is it, coming up on the tenth. We're going
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: to smear his name. We're going to make sure that
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: he has to have this convicted felon hanging around his neck.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: So we talked about this on the show, and you know,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: I've heard a few people discuss it, and it's one
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: of those things most people that I know that don't
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: like Trump are not afraid to say, ah, boy, America
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: elected a convicted felon. No, no, they did not. He
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: has not been sentenced, and that doesn't officially happen until
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: he is sentenced, which is why Mershawn decided, Well, on
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: the tenth, you know, we want to make sure the
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: point of him being sworn in on the twentieth, you know,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: then they can say it's the first time a convicted
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: felon will be sworn in now by most and it's
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: just for the press, because I don't know anyone who
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: truly believes that this isn't going to be tossed out
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: on appeal. The appeal process can begin once the actual
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: conviction is upheld with a sentencing and he becomes a
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: convicted felon. But again, this isn't about that. That's not
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: going to happen in ten days. This is about saying
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: at his swearing in, he's a convicted felon. That's what
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: it's about. And if you think it's not just about labels,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: I'm just going to give you. I saw this headline
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: from an NBC news store about yesterday about the election certification.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Here's the headline. Celiir Kapoor wrote this yesterday, Congress certifies
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Trump's twenty twenty four election, when four years after he
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: inspired a riot. It's a very carefully worded headline. At
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: the first read of it, you know, okay, now, if
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: you don't like Trump, you're going to read it and go, yeah,
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: he calls that riot to happen January sixth. Yes, let's
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: talk about that again. If you, of course support Trump
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: and voted for him, you probably read it the way.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: At first glance, I saw it and I was like what,
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: But it's very carefully worded. I give him credit because
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: not all the people who do this, but they say
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: he inspired a write. You could blame anybody for inspiring anything,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: if you think about it, I mean, if you really
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: want to get down to it, you could blame anyone,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: you know, anyone at all. You could blame any person
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: from the original colonies for inspiring the American Revolution. You
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: could blame the King of England for inspiring it. You
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: could blame anyone for inspiring it. You could blame you know,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: just some little granny who was, you know, cooking for
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: her family and said, boy, we ought to have a
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: revolution and inspired it. That's the reason it happened. It's
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: a very carefully worded thing to say that, and that
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: certification did happen yesterday. Mike Johnson, who has just been
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: voted back in a Speaker of the House after some
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: again Shenanigans. Gates is gone, Matt Gates is gone, but
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: there's still a little bit of that stuff going on
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: in the in the House. But he was there also
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: a current senator right or as a member of the
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Senate now a Vice president elect. JD. Vance was there apparently,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: you know, had a really good seat for seeing himself
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: be certified as the incoming vice president. So a lot
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: of discussion about January sixth, and from four years ago,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: and a lot of look back at what happened and
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: how it happened. So here's there's a few things I
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: feel like are important because and I'm not this you're
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: not going to get anything new. I think on on
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: what happened and how it went down. I think there's
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: a certain number of people in the country who believe,
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: without a doubt, there was nothing fishy or shady about
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: the twenty twenty election. Okay, I don't know what that
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: percentage of people is. I have no idea, but there's
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: some people on the left, there's some people on the right.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: They feel like the election outcome was exactly fair and
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: there was absolutely no shenanigans whatsoever. Okay, then you got
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: people who feel like there were a little bit of shenanigans,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: but it wasn't enough to have an outcome on the election, Right,
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: That's what we were told. Sure there was some shady
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: stuff that happened, but it wasn't enough to have an impact.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: It affected votes on both sides, and that's that I
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: can remember being told from sources that was the case.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: Nothing to worry about, that is what happened. And everything
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: moves forward. I remember hearing from other people saying, there's
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: a lot going on here, there's a lot going on
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: behind the scenes, that we're not able to really bring
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: it to light. We're trying, we want people to know.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: So there's a certain number of people who say there
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: was enough shenanigans that it was the wrong person one.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: There's still people who look back and say, how did
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: that many people vote in the election? How did COVID
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: become utilized in a way, weaponized if you will, to
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: have an impact on the outcome of the election. And
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: there's people who believe that, I'll be honest, I think
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: that I know that there was an intention of this
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: is how we're going to get Trump. There were pundits,
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: there were strategists, there were people on the left who said,
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: this pandemic is what we're going to use to get him,
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: this is going to be our way to get him,
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: and they ultimately did. I know people who had votes
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: cast on their behalf in states where they don't live.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: I know people that that happened to and the votes
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: were not for Trump, they were for Biden. I know
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: people that that happened to, and in some cases they
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: were caught not necessarily the people who did it, but
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: the false vote was caught. How much of that happened,
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: I don't know that we're ever going to know. I've
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: told you about studies that were done. Heritage Foundation to
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: a study that said about twenty two percent of people
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: admitted to tampering with a ballot, either helping someone else vote,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: filling it out for someone else with or without their permission,
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: turning in a ballot that maybe they didn't even have
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: permission to turn in. They got it from someone that
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: was mailed to them, so they filled it out and
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: they turned it in, And based on the states where
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: that happened, it was enough that the twenty one to
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: twenty two percent of people that admitted that admitted to
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: doing it in this poll or this study, it would
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: have been enough to have an outcome impact on the election.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: So if that particular study is accurate, then yes, there's
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: reason to believe that maybe, just maybe the election didn't
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: go to the correct winner. But we have to move forward,
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: and that's ultimately what we had to do. Now, can
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: they go back and try to trace the steps and
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: make sure that if we have another pandemic, this isn't
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: allowed to happen again. Absolutely, this can't happen again. So
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: the fact that Trump comes back has this massive win,
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: this massive win in this election three hundred and twelve
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: electoral votes to Kamala Harris's two hundred and twenty six.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Kamala D. Harris of the state of California, she read
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: it yesterday. I mean, that's the way it's worded. So
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: that's got to say something about the fact that it's possible.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: It's possible, right that you know, some of the conversation
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: at least was justified. And if you don't believe that
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: that was the case, then you could go to the
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: argument that Trump has been making repeatedly, which is suppressing
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: certain stories, highlighting other stories, highlighting inaccuracies, repeating lies. All
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: of those things certainly had an impact on it. When
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: you have a press that's decided who they're in for
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: and they write articles that have headlines like Congress certifies
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: Trump's twenty twenty four election win four years after he
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: inspired a riot, they'd been able to say that Trump
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: specifically calls the riot, this would be a whole different
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: January sixth we had yesterday wasn't It would have been
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: completely different, But there was always this, Well, we know,
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: we know what he meant when he said this. We
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: know what he meant when he said that. And if
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: if there was Shenanigan's, isn't it every American's duty to
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: make sure that the wrong person doesn't become president. But
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: that's another discussion for I don't know our founding fathers,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: and you know, it's not like it's not like they
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: told us this kind of stuff was a possibility. I mean,
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: they didn't specifically mention COVID, but it's not like they
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: didn't have plans in place for this kind of thing.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: In other news that is connected to all of this,
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: January sixth goes twenty twenty five goes down in history
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: a little bit in its own way in Canada, as
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Justin Trudeau, the Prime Minister, announces that he will be
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: stepping down and apparently there are some, you know, connections
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: to Trump. Trump's been hard on him, you know, Trump's
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: been treating him like a punching bag since getting re elected.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: And Trudeau says, basically, this incoming wave of nationalism right
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: in America, they're concerned about it. And I guess he's
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: decided that he doesn't want to face a vote of
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: no confidence, which has apparently been rumored to be coming.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: So Trudeau will move on, pass things off, and be
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: done with all of it, I guess in some way
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: or form, Which is also kind of interesting when you
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: think about the impact that Trump can have as an
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: incoming US president. People are saying things like, you know,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: he's already thinks he's the president, when in reality, if
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: he's able to step in and almost immediately calls the
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: leader of one of our neighbor and ally to step down,
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: that's kind of interesting, isn't it. There's these rumors that
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: you know, Vance and his buddy who's in Canada, his best,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: good friend, we're behind this push out. I don't know
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: where all of that falls in. I guess we'll learn
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: more about that as we move forward with all this.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: But it is interesting though that this is coming to
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: play just right here at the same time that the
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: election becomes certified and we're two weeks away from Trump
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: being sworn in again, and just as another side note,
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: and I just want to remind you, I know this
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: is going to be a key couple of weeks and
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: then we're going to get back into a Trump presidency
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: and there's going to be people who really got the
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: feelings hurt that he wants. And I understand, I do,
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: And I'm glad that we didn't have, you know, the
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: kind of January sixth that we had four years ago. Again,
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: I'm glad, I'm really glad, But just a just a
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: quick quick reminder that we are, we're in this period
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: of transitioning as a as a country into this new presidency,
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: and that we don't we don't need to uh go
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: at each other all the time, you know, And I
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: know that's wishing a lot. I had someone yesterday, a
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: friend that just decided to fire some random shot at
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: me about what I was talking about, my family looking
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: at a possible trip to Australia sometime in the next
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: year or so, and we were looking at you know,
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: affairs and things, and this person told me, I sure,
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: hope you're gonna be able to get back home. I thought, Oh,
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: my gosh, what's happened. What's happened in the world that
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: I don't know about, because you know, when we last went,
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: it was right before COVID the outbreak, and we really
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: almost didn't get to come home for a really long time.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: And I thought my gosh, what's happened? And then he referenced, oh,
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: Elon Musk and all the things he's doing might keep
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: people from being able to come home, and I thought,
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: what are we talking about? I still don't know what
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: he was talking about in his defense, So if there's
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: something that I'm missing, I don't know what it is.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: But you know, I don't know. And again, it's a friend,
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: it's a friend. I respect him. I just don't know
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: what the conversation was, the attempt was. I don't know
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: how I could possibly get stuck in Australia because of
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: Elon Musk. I don't know, I don't know what he
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: was talking about. But it's a weird it's a weird
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: place that we're in where just where we're getting our
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: information and our news from is pretty critical and we
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: have to have some kind of a check on where
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: it's coming from. And that was why the whole Twitter
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: thing was so important, having it change hands and going
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: to something that's a little bit more of a fact
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: check in some way because of stuff like that, Because
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know what Elon Musk could
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: possibly be doing that might make me get stuck in Australia.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: But if you know, by all means, please let me know.

• 22:26
  Speaker 2: by Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: garage door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: maintenance that it's time for. It's always good to get
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: maintenance on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: care of squaring that away for you, and while they're
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: there you can always ask them questions about some of
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: want it to be, and you need some repair work
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: done to the outside door. Maybe you need a brand
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: of insulation issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather,
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: looking at a situation where you'd like to add a
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: screen door to your garage door system that you can
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: put down and you can use your garage space as
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: like to work on your own cars in there, or
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: maybe you just want a little man cavid you'd like
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: to be able to open the door up and not
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: invite all the insects in. They can do that for
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, And they do
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh six thorty five eight forty

• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Right after the break, well, did you make any New
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: Year's resolutions? Are you still going now? Getting into a
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: week deep in all of this, Well, apparently about forty
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: percent of Americans made resolutions and do each year, vowing
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: to do things like I'm gonna be healthier, I'm going
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: to exercise more, I'm gonna save money. Of course, making
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: the resolution is the easy part. The actual changes are
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: the hard part. Researchers found it takes sixty six days
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: to turn a resolution into a habit, and that's more
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: than two months of persistent work and dedication before the
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: habit really takes hold. So you're about a weekend if
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: you're keeping it up. Hang in there, you know, you
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: just got a couple more months to go. That's all.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: Just a few few more months and you'll have you know,
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: just hang in there. That's all I'm saying. If you
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: can make it to March, you'll be in good shape.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: That's all. You want to get to March. But you
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: want to take baby steps and get yourself to March.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: According to a study, volunteering for as little as one
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: hour a week can slow down biological aging. Just one
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: hour a week not only make you feel younger, but
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: also boost your mental health, give you a sense of purpose,
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: and even help you make new friends. And if you
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: volunteer a few hours a week, the benefits become even better.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: That's a nice thought. I like everything about that. I'm
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: always suspicious when, like the people who are doing the
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: study are coming in with the like, hey, if you volunteer,
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: if you come help us out, things are going to
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: be better in your life. Well, I mean, but I
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: stand by the volunteering thing. I've long been an advocate
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: for that, and I've you know, coached youth sports at
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: many levels and participate in a number of things in
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: a volunteering capacity. I'm all for it. Again, It's just
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: kind of a little suspicious when they come in and say,
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: you know, the coffee makers of the world, the people
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: who grow the beans, they say coffee is good for you.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: That's all. That's just where I raise an eyebrow. But
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: I do like it. I encourage it. You should do it.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: I think it will make you feel better. Do you
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: have a resolution to exercise morell? How about this for
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: some motivation. A new study from University of Iowa found
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: that being just to you know, regular old couch potato
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: isn't just lazy, it is a health risk. Researchers found
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: that just slacking off, not moving around a lot, has
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: a increased risk of nineteen different chronic conditions, including obesity, diabetes,
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: heart problems, and depression. Okay, and this is coming from
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: the University of Iowa. This isn't coming from you know,
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: the exercise people. See. That's the point I was trying
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: to make. That's all. I'm not against volunteer. I'm very
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: pro volunteering. I think it's great. I think it is
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: good for you. According to a Manpower Group report, thirty
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: five percent of workers are thinking about switching jobs this year.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: This is especially true for younger workers. Nearly fifty percent
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: of those surveys said they're considering a career change in
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: the new year, and even remote workers are itching for
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: a change. Forty one percent of work from homers say
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: that they're likely to change jobs this year, despite reporting
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: a better work life balance and greater well being overall.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: And maybe the reason, thirty four percent of respondent said
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: that they don't have opportunities to advance their careers with
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: their current employers. I'm going to tell you this. If
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: you've gotten used to working from home and your current
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: employer allows you to work from home, just know that
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: may not always be the case, especially if you did
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: Leaven came back. But the next job also may not
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: be so into you working from home. So just know
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: that there's a possibility of that if you're one of
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: those people. I think it's a grasses greener kind of thing.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know. United van Lines has released their
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: results for the annual list of most moved from states
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four to give you an idea of
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: where Americans are going. The most common reasons for moving
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: out of a state were desired to be closer to family, retirement,
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: new job, or company transfer. The seventh consecutive year, New
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: Jersey saw the highest percentage of outbound movers, followed by
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: Illinois and New York. The state with the highest percentage
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: of people moving in was West Virginia, followed by Delaware.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: South Carolina also DC not a state, but as technicality,
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: I know North Carolina, Alabama, Rhode Island, Oregon, Arkansas, and
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: Arizona round out the top ten. So way to goo.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Alabama the least fun cities in America. According to wallet Hub,
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: they've given you a list to let you know which
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: cities are especially boring. The good news is none of
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: them are in the Southeast, so we're kind of clear
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: down here. Most of them apparently are in California, although
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: the top city is not. They ranked one hundred and
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: eighty two most populated cities in America and the ten
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: least fun cities. At the top of the list Pearl City, Hawaii.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: You know, at least you're in Hawaii, South Burlington, Vermont, Yonkers,
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: New York, Lewiston, Maine, Oxnard, California, Fremont, California, Santa Rosa, California, Bridgeport, Connecticut.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: It's Chula Vista, California was at number ten. There's another
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: California in there.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: That'll do it for this Tuesday edition of the show.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: Thanks to our sponsors and patrons. Thank you for listening.
