• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Here all right, welcome in. It's Kevin McCullough and it
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: is that Kevin Show. And we are thrilled to be
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: being brought to you by Dominion Dot Chat. If you
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: have not if you understand how AI and chat, GPT
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: and Claude and all of these Gemini and everything else
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: is impacting how you use the Internet, and you're looking
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: for a faith centric AI that is truthful, that is honest,
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: that has an integral worldview that reflects yours as a
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: believer in God. Chat Dominion dot c h A T
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: is what I want you to check out Dominion dot chat.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Three pastors were the ones that came together to formulate
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: the algorithm for Dominion dot chat. And the more that
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: they have done it, and the longer that they have
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: seen what it can do, the more they have realized
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: that it is shining the light of the Gospel into
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: a place that otherwise you can't be for sure what
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: you're going to get with Claude or Chat GPT. You
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: oftentimes if you ask it a serious question, you will
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: oftentimes get a response that the chat device has calculated
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: that it thinks that you will want to hear as
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: opposed to telling you the truth. And Dominion dot chat
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: is a Christ centered, bibliocentric chat AI tool that is
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: designed for people who want to have actual truth at
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: their fingertips. And I would just strongly recommend that you
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: go check it out Dominion dot Chat, Dominion dot chat
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: and check it out today. Calvin McCullough strongly one hundred
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: percent believe in the mission of what they're doing. We've
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: got a lot of stuff to get to today. Today
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: is Wellness Wednesday, So in the second hour we're going
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: to do some straight up discussion about things that are
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: important to the wellness of human beings and individuals, and
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: I hope that you'll stick around for that. Doctor Ray
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Solano is going to be back with us, but we
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: have a number of things that we need to touch
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: base on before then, one of which is higher education
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: and some of what the states can do to incentivize
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: universities in particular to be let's say, more helpful to
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: the actual education of the student as opposed to just
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: lining their pockets. I hate to put it that way,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: but that's kind of the way it has to be understood. Madison,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: Mary and Doan is going to join us from the
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Heritage Foundation and just a little bit and we'll get
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: to that in a second. We're also going to have
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Steven Owens back with us, lead pastor Mount Calvary Baptist
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Church out of Bedford, Ohio. He's going to talk to
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: us about the beatitudes in the section that we call
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: how do we Live? We are looking at these short,
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: little pithy instructions that Jesus has given us in the
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: value that they hold in our lives, and lots of
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: other things to get to. But I've I've got a
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: lot of commentary up at town hall dot com. If
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: you've not read me this week, you can go to
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: that Kevin Show dot com and click on the columns
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: you will see. But we are in a weird day, friends,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you, it is a strange occurrence that we
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: are watching unfold in front of us. And speaking of folding,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: I don't know people that do it easier or faster,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: like you know, wet paper towels than the current Democrat personalities, leadership,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: people that are on the forefront of that party, these
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: public image because when your belief system is more or
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: less just fully transactional, you don't really become well known
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: for you the strength of your convictions. And pardon me
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: if I'm a little more than skeptical about people that
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: got defeated in the primary races, or even the House
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: House minority leader himself suddenly trying to talk tough about
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: the Democratic Socialists of America's takeover happening inside their own party,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: because I don't think I think that they're going to
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: accommodate them, and I think that they're going to let
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: the tiger in the tent and they're going to pet it,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: and they're going to feed it, and it's going to
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: eat them. Let's start with Congressperson Haley Stevens. She lost
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: the Michigan Democrat Senate primary to Abdul l Sayed. This
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: last week on Fox News, she appeared and the Sunday briefing,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: she said, what a lot of nervous Democrats are apparently
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: thinking out loud now that a new poll shows l
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: SAIED trailing Mike Rodgers by four points and underperforming with
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Black voters, women voters, suburban voters all and those are
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: all underperforming compared to Kamala Harris, who also underperformed on
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: black voters, women voters, and suburban voters. So if Kamala
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: Harris underperformed in those demographics and LSIED is trailing where
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: she was with those base voters, he's significantly behind. But
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: why is that, well, Hailey Stevens, congresswoman said it certainly
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: makes sense to get rid of this Hassan part Piker affiliation.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: And then she pivoted back to insisting that the party's
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: platform still beats the Republicans, and she says, it certainly
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: makes sense, It certainly makes sense. Yes, I would agree
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: with that. Hassan Piker is this podcaster who has said
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: he would like to wipe his backside with the Constitution
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: of the United States. They also, the Democratic Socialists, also
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: want to get rid of the Senate, and they want
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: to make the president subservient to Congress, and they want
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: to do away with the Supreme Court. But Hassan Piker
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: is this streamer who has said what I told you,
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: and he's told the United States to go consummate itself.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: Elsaiad campaign poolside with this podcaster just weeks ago, just
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: the day before his election, actually, and now it makes
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: sense to get rid of the affiliation. That's not exactly
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: moral outrage by Hailey Stevens, the congresswoman. That's somebody looking
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: at ugly polling and suddenly discovering a problem everybody else
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: could already see for a long time, Which is why
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: I don't really believe her. I don't really believe Chuck
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: Schumer and Hakim Jeffries and all these people that are
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: saying they're very outraged by the influence that the Democratic
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Socialists of America are having in their party. I don't
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: really believe them. Let's talk about Jeffries for a second.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: He told Meet the Press over the weekend that he
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: doesn't support Medicare for All and he doesn't support the
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: DSA agenda as it's been articulated by the DSA. Okay,
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: I'll take him at his word, except he has actions
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: that seem to counterdict that. Jeffries co sponsored the Medicare
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: for All Act in twenty nineteen, and then he did
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: it again in twenty twenty one. So what changed between
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty one and twenty twenty six when he's now
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: saying he's not four Medicare for All. Seven incumbent House
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: Democrats have already lost primaries this cycle to DSA back challengers,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: including two of Jeffrey's allies in New York. That should
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: be getting people's attention. Even congress Person Roe Kanna broke
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: with Hakeem Jeffries on the same show on the same day,
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: calling Medicare for All arguably the most important priority. Medicare
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: for All basically is communist health insurance.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: That's their solution.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Just let the government take over organizing and funding the
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: whole thing. And friends, if you thought Obamacare ended badly,
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: that's it's going to end worse. Obamacare only went part
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: of the way. But that's almost beside the point here.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: People pushing these ideas aren't hiding what they believe. Piker
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: certainly isn't, the DSA isn't. Rokanna isn't. In a strange way,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: I respect honesty more than the sudden repositioning from leaders
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: who've discovered that perhaps their voters aren't as excited about
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: all of this as as the activists are. But say
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: what you believe. That's really not too much to ask.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: If Jeffries has genuinely changed his mind about Medicare for all,
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: say why. If Stevens believes campaigning with Piker is wrong,
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: say why it was wrong? Sorry Hakeem, Sorry Ailey. Maybe
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: this really is conviction. Maybe two Democrats looked at what's
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: happening inside their party and independently decided enough is enough.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: I would welcome that, but conviction usually shows up before
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: the poll, and until I see that, I just I
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: really can't believe him. Cavin mccallaugh coming right back.
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: Here.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: He is from New York. Kevin McCullough, all right, welcome back.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: It's that Kevin show, that kevinshow dot com for all
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: things related. And at this part of the show, every
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: day we stop, we set aside the newspaper in the
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: headlines and all the stories that are screaming at us
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: and everything that everybody wants to be all upset about.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: We'll get to that, that's coming up later in the show,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: but we start at the place of grounding. We start
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: at the place of asking the big question, how do
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: we live? And why do we ask the big question?
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Because I feel like we don't ask it enough in life.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: I really do think, and I've said this before on
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: the show, that we are a generation that has lost
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: the ability to actually reflect on the big questions that
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: people have always revetted upon through every period of history
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: leading up to this. But people used to ask who
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: am I, Why am I here? What is the mission
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: for which I was given in this life? What is
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: the purpose of being here? And among those big questions
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: is the question how do I live? As a result
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: of the answers to those, so I kind of stubbornly
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: say we're going to take this time every day to
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: ask that question. And I'm really grateful for great pastors
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: across America who have stepped up and said, yeah, I'll
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: spend a week with you mulling this over from a spiritual,
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: from a scriptural standpoint, expositorily looking at the text of
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: scripture and saying what does it say about it? And
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: this week I'm very honored to have Pastor Steven Owens
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: back with us. He is the lead pastor at Mount
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Calvary Baptist Church there in Bedford, Ohio. Stephen, we started
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: a series this week on the Beatitudes, and yesterday we
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: talked about what it means to be humble, and we
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: talked about what it means to be truly broken over
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: our sin, over the sin in our own lives. And
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: today Jesus takes the next two steps. Not only are
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: we to be poor in spirit and mourn and being
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: able to be comforted in that morning, but now he
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: takes us to another couple of focuses. Where are we
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: off to?
• 12:11
  Speaker 7: So now we're at verses five and six, where it
• 12:14
  Speaker 7: says Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth.
• 12:17
  Speaker 7: And then blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
• 12:20
  Speaker 7: where they shall be filled. And so I think it's
• 12:23
  Speaker 7: pretty interesting how Jesus opens up each beatitude with the
• 12:29
  Speaker 7: word blessed, right, and because sometimes we can try to
• 12:32
  Speaker 7: skip over that because we can.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Assume that we understand what that means.
• 12:36
  Speaker 7: While blessed can speak to being happy, right, but it
• 12:40
  Speaker 7: goes deeper than that, because happiness is subjective, it's based
• 12:44
  Speaker 7: off what is happening to you.
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: But what Jesus is.
• 12:47
  Speaker 7: Saying is blessed as being favored and graciously approved by God.
• 12:53
  Speaker 7: That God approves and favors us because we are trying
• 12:57
  Speaker 7: to live out these beatitudes, and we experience this joy
• 13:01
  Speaker 7: and hope in spite of what's happening to us and
• 13:04
  Speaker 7: in spite of what's happening around us. Right, So he says,
• 13:07
  Speaker 7: blessed are the meek. Now, sometimes this can be challenging
• 13:11
  Speaker 7: because many people can think meekness is weakness, right, as
• 13:15
  Speaker 7: being soft and not wanting to be passive and not
• 13:21
  Speaker 7: want to do anything. But it's interesting because Jesus calls
• 13:23
  Speaker 7: himself meek right in Matthew eleven twenty nine, and Moses
• 13:27
  Speaker 7: the Deliverer in Old Testament, he calls himself meek as
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: well in numbers twelve and three. So Jesus is really
• 13:33
  Speaker 7: calling us to be like him, to be more like him,
• 13:36
  Speaker 7: to imitate him. The word Christian speaks to being a
• 13:38
  Speaker 7: little christ. One way I like to say it is
• 13:41
  Speaker 7: save people to live like the Savior. Right, So meekness
• 13:45
  Speaker 7: really speaks of being gentle and humble, and a word
• 13:49
  Speaker 7: that we don't see a lot of people practice, which
• 13:51
  Speaker 7: is considerate.
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: Right to be considerate of one another.
• 13:55
  Speaker 7: That it speaks to us being gentle, right, Doctor Warre
• 13:59
  Speaker 7: and Weirsby, he says something pretty interesting in his commentary.
• 14:01
  Speaker 7: He says, how the Greek word speaks to a horse
• 14:06
  Speaker 7: being broken.
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: It's idea of power under control.
• 14:09
  Speaker 7: That's what that's what weakness is is that we have
• 14:12
  Speaker 7: the power that we could be mean to each other,
• 14:15
  Speaker 7: we could be rude, but instead we take the self
• 14:19
  Speaker 7: control because we have a holy spirit as Christians, and
• 14:22
  Speaker 7: we have control of ourselves. We don't say everything we
• 14:25
  Speaker 7: think and we don't do everything we want, all right,
• 14:28
  Speaker 7: and then that moves us to being under God's control
• 14:31
  Speaker 7: because it's submitted to.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: Him, and you mentioned the idea of strength under control.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: I think a lot of people push off a false
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: Jesus on us these days because they especially if it
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: fits a political narrative or something they want. They want
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: us to think that Jesus was this, you know, kind
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: of almost emotionless being that never got upset, never really
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: had any you know, expression of anger or frustration. And
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: yet Stephen, when I read the gospels, I find that
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Jesus was very human in that he did get angry.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, when he goes to the temple and he
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: calls them a den of vipers and whitewashed tombs, He's
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: not really holding back. Those were pretty insulting words to
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: the people that he was talking about. So he did
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: feel things very strongly, and he even took actions on
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: righteous anger, but he never let that overpower who he
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: ultimately was.
• 15:31
  Speaker 7: Absolutely and you see him getting upset, not just at
• 15:33
  Speaker 7: the ascribes and Pharisees, even getting frustrated with allwn disciples.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: He's like the knuckleheads. I like to tell him, the
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: knuckleheads right, because I'm one of them, Like, yes, I'm
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: going to be his disciple, but I'm just as much
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: of a knucklehead as they are, and I probably would
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: have been far worse if I had been if I
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: had been there.
• 15:51
  Speaker 7: Yeah, so you see, Yes, Jenus has very real emotions, right,
• 15:54
  Speaker 7: he is one hundred percent God, and.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: So meekness is not an absence of feeling or reaction,
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: but it is very much tempering that to submitting to
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: a greater good and a greater glory, if you will,
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: in how Christ would go about it.
• 16:12
  Speaker 7: Absolutely we are to imitate him. And it's interesting Jesus
• 16:15
  Speaker 7: basically quotes Psalm thirty seven, verse eleven, speaking of the
• 16:20
  Speaker 7: meek inheriting the earth. Now, the Jews would have seen
• 16:23
  Speaker 7: this as inheriting the promised land, a peaceful canaan, but
• 16:28
  Speaker 7: Jesus broadens that to where the promise is for us
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: to inherit the world. The believers will inherit the world.
• 16:34
  Speaker 7: And we see in the Book of Revelation chapter twenty
• 16:37
  Speaker 7: one and twenty two, how.
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: There'll be a new heaven and a new Earth, and
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: that believers.
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: Will spend eternity with God on this new earth without
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: any sin, and it will be full of peace, the
• 16:51
  Speaker 7: peace of God. So it's super exciting about what he's
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: speaking about here in verse five the meek inheriting the earth,
• 17:00
  Speaker 7: It says, blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
• 17:03
  Speaker 7: but they shall be filled.
• 17:05
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 17:05
  Speaker 7: So this hunger and thirst is a picture of intense
• 17:10
  Speaker 7: longing for a desire.
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: To be satisfied.
• 17:14
  Speaker 7: It's the idea that something has to happen, right. We
• 17:17
  Speaker 7: see pzomis kind of using some of this word picture
• 17:21
  Speaker 7: in Psalm forty two where he talks about the deer
• 17:24
  Speaker 7: longing and panting after the rivers and the flowing streams.
• 17:28
  Speaker 7: It's like, we need this to happen. We want righteousness
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: to occur. And this righteousness speaks to two parts. Is
• 17:37
  Speaker 7: a personal righteousness but also a social righteousness, all right.
• 17:42
  Speaker 7: And so the personal righteousness is that we are right
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: with God. Right, that we should be longing to be
• 17:48
  Speaker 7: right with God.
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 17:49
  Speaker 7: So we have that as believers, initially because of Jesus right,
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: because we believe in his gospel, his death, throne, resurrection right,
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: and we're no longer at war with God.
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: But that's the result in.
• 18:00
  Speaker 7: This right way of living right, that we are living
• 18:04
  Speaker 7: the way God wants us to live, not living our way,
• 18:06
  Speaker 7: but living God's way. And we know this doesn't happen instantly, right,
• 18:10
  Speaker 7: It's progressional.
• 18:12
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 18:12
  Speaker 7: It's like it's basically sanctification that over time, the more
• 18:15
  Speaker 7: that we read God's word and spend time with God
• 18:18
  Speaker 7: and even being around other Christians, we become more and
• 18:21
  Speaker 7: more like Jesus.
• 18:23
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 18:23
  Speaker 7: And so this pushes against self righteousness.
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: This is what describing Pharisees.
• 18:28
  Speaker 7: Have had and Jesus like, don't have that kind of righteousness.
• 18:33
  Speaker 7: He said, a matter of fact, our righteous needs to
• 18:36
  Speaker 7: exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees in Matthew
• 18:40
  Speaker 7: five five twenty. And so it is a righteousness to
• 18:43
  Speaker 7: becoming more like Jesus and how we think, how we speak,
• 18:48
  Speaker 7: and how we live right. But I think the other
• 18:51
  Speaker 7: aspect of this is a social righteousness. This is where
• 18:54
  Speaker 7: Jesus talks about God's will being done on earth as
• 18:59
  Speaker 7: it is in heaven. Matter of fact, he told us
• 19:01
  Speaker 7: to pray that way right in Matthew six ten.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: So this is God to.
• 19:06
  Speaker 7: Where the earth is being filled with the righteousness of God.
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: Right, And we.
• 19:13
  Speaker 7: Can see how this can play out. The implications of
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: this is where people begin to treat each other the
• 19:19
  Speaker 7: way God commands right and That's interesting to me because
• 19:23
  Speaker 7: it's not treat people how you want to be treated,
• 19:27
  Speaker 7: is treat people the way God.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: There's a distinction there, for sure.
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: The other thing that has always captured my attention on
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: this verse is that he uses some words describing how
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: we're supposed to long for this that are pretty specific.
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: When I'm hungry, I lose focus on almost everything else
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: because I want to get that hunger satiated. When I
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: am thirsty, getting a drink of water is all I
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: can think about. That kind of I don't want anything
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: else before I have this is what he's He's really
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: pointing us in the direction of do we hunger? Do
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: we thirst? Do we really yearn ache long for that
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: righteousness above and beyond? Does it distract? Does it take
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: all other distractions and set them aside until we have that?
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: That's the kind of key marks of hunger and thirst,
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: And I think it's interesting that he puts it in
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: that kind of like binary, like you're either hungry for
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: it or you're not. You're thirsting for it or you're not.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: There's not really an in between. Steven just getting started,
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: and we've got a couple of days left, I'm so
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: grateful that you're with us this week. Thank you again.
• 20:34
  Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, glad to be Kevin.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you got it. Mount Calvary Baptist in Bedford, Ohio.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: If you want to know more, we'll tell you how
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: you can actually be with Pastor Owens this weekend. We'll
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: ask him what he's going to be teaching on tomorrow.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Kevin McCullough, coming right back from New York. Don't go away, let's.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Stick around for more of that. Kevin.
• 20:52
  Speaker 10: Next here he is from New York.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: That n Kevin McCullough. All right, welcome back, Kevin McCalla.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Glad to have you with us in the ongoing saga
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: that is the w NBA last night and I continue
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: to be impressed with this young lady. Sophie Cunningham and
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: the Indiana Fever played the Toronto Tempo. Kind of an
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: interesting name for a basketball team, but the Toronto Tempo
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: welcomed the Indiana Fever and she, you know, went into
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: that stadium and got booed every time she touched the ball.
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: She gets booed. She interprets it as just from the
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: crowd and that the Canadian faithful that are gathered there
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: to cheer on their team, are just really pro their team.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: So she talked about putting on her big girl pants
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: and hard hat and going into the you know, going
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: into the construction zone.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: That's what she got.
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: People booed her, and you have to presume because she's
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: not the top score on the fever, that's Caitlin Clark.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: You have to presume that a lot of it has
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: to do with her public statement in recent weeks and
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: months that she's made again and again that women's sports
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: should be for women only, and that she's not going
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: to apologize for saying that she believes that women's sports
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: should be for women only. And if the entire culture
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: of Canada is okay with letting men into their locker
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: rooms and being around their little girls, I guess it's
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: not really her issue, you know, to to face or
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: deal with. But she was just mercilessly booed every time
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: she touched the basketball on Tuesday night, and it's because
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: she said men don't belong in girls' locker rooms. And
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: then she responded by hitting all the three pointers that
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: she took in the entire game, like she shot lights out.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: And after the game, she made it a point to
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: shout out the crowd unprompted. Instead of crying about it,
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: she embraced it. What a breath of fresh air. I mean,
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: here's what she said when asked about the bad temperament
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: of the Toronto folks.
• 23:45
  Speaker 8: You know what, Yeah, I like where your mind's at
• 23:47
  Speaker 8: on that. Maybe I should try. I heard I was
• 23:48
  Speaker 8: supposed to try a different brand. So but you know what,
• 23:51
  Speaker 8: I will tell you, I want to shout out the
• 23:54
  Speaker 8: tempo crowd in the city. I think we've had so
• 23:56
  Speaker 8: much fun.
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: It's my first time being in Canada.
• 23:57
  Speaker 8: It's a lot of our first times being in Canada.
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: But the crowd was absolutely amazing. And you know, I
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: think that's what sports is all about. You're gonna get booze, you'
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: gonna get cheers.
• 24:04
  Speaker 8: But just the fact that they're so passionate, they're loud,
• 24:07
  Speaker 8: and they're putting on for the city. I think it's amazing.
• 24:09
  Speaker 8: So shout out to you guys for coming out in sporting.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: What sportsmanship is that? How cool that she goes into
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: a place that literally is rooting for her every destructive end,
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: every time she touched the ball, every time she's on
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: the court. They want to just take her down and
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: here she is saying, this is what sports about. People
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: have passion, shout out the crowd. Appreciate the fact that
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: you're so passionate about your team, like total class, total
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: and complete class. That is a young lady that I
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: wouldn't mind my daughter emulating in terms of, you know,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: some of the quick thinking and classy ways to handle criticism.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: She's out thinking the opponents and and that is really cool.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: Something else that's really cool is when I find something
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: that helps us save money as a family, and I
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: want to tell you guys about it. Because if I
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: told you right now that I could save you five
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars on your health care costs in the next year,
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: would you listen If I said, here's here's the here's
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: the secret that helped us save five thousand dollars on
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: our health insurance health insurance for a family of five,
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: would you be interested? Uh, we were a number of
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: years ago trying to comply with the law and have
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: the Obamacare sanctioned medical coverage that was allowed and if
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: you didn't want to have, you know, the woke policies
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: that were tens of thousands of dollars more. Where like
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: I as a as a you know, mail would need
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: to carry you know, pregnancy coverage and maternity coverage. You know,
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: we we we didn't feel like we needed to have
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: one of those plans. So we went with one of
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: those medical cost sharing programs, you know where they say, hey,
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: we'll help you share your costs. And it started out okay,
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: but after we were in it for a few years,
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: the premiums on that went up and what they were
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: covering was less and less, and I was just less
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: and less impressed with it. And I know that they're
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: still out there trying to tell you the same thing,
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: but it didn't work for me. Friend, here's what did.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: I called Someone told me about DFW Direct Insurance and
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: Vic Pritchard and they said, keV, you got to talk
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: to Vic because he can totally change your world on this.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: So I call him up. I said, Vic, Kevin McCullough,
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: nice to meet you. Someone told me that you specialize
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: in helping people save money on their health insurance. He goes, yeah,
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: for twenty nine years, I've been doing or since two
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: thousand and nine. I guess I should say twenty insurance companies,
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: plus that he has access to licensed in all fifty states,
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: and he said, what are you paying now and what
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: are you getting? He took a look at our current
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: coverage and he goes, I think I can do better
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: than that for you. And he went away for a
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: day and came back the next day and he said,
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: keV look at what we got. Four hundred dollars less
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: a month on premiums, zero out of pocket cost, never
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: pay a copey, never pay for an office visit, and
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: tons more things covered than what she had under the
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: old plan. For four hundred dollars less a month, that's
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: five thousand dollars a year. And he said, I could
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: give you his cell number so that you could take
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: advantage of the same opportunity. Eight one seven four four
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: nine five five five seven. Call VIC that's his personal cell,
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: and say, Kevin McCollough told me to call eight one
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: seven four four nine five five five seven eight one
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: seven four four nine five five five seven.
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: Here he is from New York, Kevin McCullough.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: Welcome Times, where it's Kevin McCullough, that Kevin Show, that
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: kevinshow dot com for all things, including their television highlights,
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: the column at town Hall on a daily basis and
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: of course the podcast of this very show, Glad You're
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: with us. Every week we check in with the Heritage
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: Foundation on a variety of different issues across the areas
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: of expertise that they support there. And recently you may
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: have heard about something called the White House's Compact for
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Academic Excellence in Higher Education. That is a mouthful, but
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: here with us to explain it all is Madison Marino Done,
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: who is joining us. She's a policy analyst for Heritage. Madison,
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: what is the Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education?
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: And why did the Trump administration announce it?
• 29:08
  Speaker 9: Well, you know, last fall, you're right, they proposed what's
• 29:11
  Speaker 9: called the Compact for Academic Excellence and Higher Education.
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: It was first.
• 29:14
  Speaker 9: Proposed to nine major universities and then to all academic
• 29:18
  Speaker 9: institutions in the United States. And I think the reason
• 29:20
  Speaker 9: why the Trump administration had proposed it is because they
• 29:23
  Speaker 9: felt like that activist colleges had really lost their way
• 29:27
  Speaker 9: and squandered the trust of many Americans. And you know,
• 29:30
  Speaker 9: there were many critics that characterized the entire plan as
• 29:33
  Speaker 9: federal overreach, but really most of the Compact's reforms are
• 29:38
  Speaker 9: really sound and desperately needed.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: Well, when the President was campaigning in twenty twenty four,
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: he obviously felt that education was an important issue. Of
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: his appointment to Linda McMahon as the head of the
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: Department of Education was a very big sign that he
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: expected change to be brought about. He's done a lot
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: of kind of deconstructing of some of the infrastructure and
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: some of the kind of things that we most dislike
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: about the DOE in general. But he had more more
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: plans than just that, and this is is one of those.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: What did the compact seek to address with higher institutions?
• 30:20
  Speaker 9: Yeah, so I think what it was trying to address
• 30:22
  Speaker 9: is that, you know, higher education is really in its
• 30:24
  Speaker 9: state of crisis. If you look at student debt, it's
• 30:27
  Speaker 9: the past one point seven trillion. We have rising rates
• 30:30
  Speaker 9: of default and delinquency. I think out of July there
• 30:33
  Speaker 9: were one one in five federal student loan borrowers or
• 30:35
  Speaker 9: in default. So the basically the compact was trying to address,
• 30:39
  Speaker 9: you know, a couple of different issues, from merit and
• 30:41
  Speaker 9: admission to making sure that we have a marketplace of
• 30:43
  Speaker 9: ideas and civil discourse on campus, to civil and constitutional
• 30:47
  Speaker 9: rights compliance. But what we've been saying at the Heritage Foundation.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: Is that Yes, while this is good.
• 30:52
  Speaker 9: For you know, the federal writ to kind of set
• 30:54
  Speaker 9: the stage, set the tone for what needs to happen.
• 30:56
  Speaker 9: That really there is a lot of a lot of
• 30:58
  Speaker 9: this is within this the states, and so now the
• 31:01
  Speaker 9: states can kind of pick up the ball to sure
• 31:03
  Speaker 9: attack payers and students that higher education will serve its
• 31:06
  Speaker 9: core purposes.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: Well, okay, for a second, let's have a side discussion.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: What are the core purposes of higher education or what
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: should they be at least because I don't think basket weaving,
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: lesbian studies, the history of Taylor Swift, just some of
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: the courses that colleges have made popular in recent years
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: really amount to.
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: A whole lot. Yeah.
• 31:31
  Speaker 9: No's that's one hundred percent true. No, I mean, I
• 31:34
  Speaker 9: think it depends on what type of institution the student
• 31:37
  Speaker 9: is pursuing. If they're pursuing you to your institution, whether
• 31:39
  Speaker 9: they're going to create with the apprenticeship, are there pursuing,
• 31:43
  Speaker 9: you know, for your institution, and they want to join
• 31:45
  Speaker 9: kind of the fellowship of educated men and women, which
• 31:47
  Speaker 9: is what I think Originally Harvard was supposed to kind
• 31:51
  Speaker 9: of gear and train up students to be able to
• 31:53
  Speaker 9: do that. So I think it depends on the type
• 31:56
  Speaker 9: of college. But you know, ultimately, if a student is
• 31:58
  Speaker 9: pursuing perspecondary education, and we want it to be a
• 32:01
  Speaker 9: group goal experience, and we want it to result in
• 32:04
  Speaker 9: a good income where they can provide for their family
• 32:07
  Speaker 9: and their life, and that they can give back to
• 32:10
  Speaker 9: their community and ultimately and ultimately through for God as well.
• 32:14
  Speaker 9: So I think it depends on the type of institution.
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: But the reason I.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Bring that up is not just to be funny, but
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: there's this there's this bigger picture. So you're talking about
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: a middle class, working class family in the Midwest. They
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: work really hard, their kid may be one of the
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: first people in their family to go to college. They
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: get into a good school. Once there, they're enticed into
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: all of these different programs and studies and stuff that
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: really don't focus on functional living, advancing a career, a
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: lot of these other things. They may take on great
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: amount of debt to do this, and you have this
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: cycle of people studying stuff that doesn't really benefit them.
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: If there was a way to strip down all of
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: the junk and get back to the stuff that was
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: truly core, and that's why I asked about that word.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: I think it would change the outlook for the American
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: future in a huge way.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 33:11
  Speaker 9: I think a lot of you know, Republican or Red
• 33:13
  Speaker 9: states are taking what you said and are taking the
• 33:15
  Speaker 9: initiative on this. There have been a couple of dates
• 33:18
  Speaker 9: that are trying to low back or trying to roll
• 33:21
  Speaker 9: back a lot of programs that either have low enrollment
• 33:23
  Speaker 9: or that are not producing good ROLI for their students.
• 33:26
  Speaker 9: And so I think we are seeing some Red states
• 33:29
  Speaker 9: that are taking the initiative for the public universities that
• 33:31
  Speaker 9: they have jurisdiction over. But look often my colleague Adam Kiffel,
• 33:35
  Speaker 9: former colleague Ratueal Cambery, and I we put together a
• 33:38
  Speaker 9: book called Lacking a Guide to ivy lea Mess Education,
• 33:41
  Speaker 9: and this is exactly what we did. We pointed out
• 33:43
  Speaker 9: all of the terrible, wacky courses that are offered at
• 33:46
  Speaker 9: the Ivy League institutions. I mean, these are supposed to
• 33:49
  Speaker 9: be our top rated institutions in the United States and
• 33:51
  Speaker 9: they are producing just these crazy courses. And then we
• 33:55
  Speaker 9: wanted to provide this is almost a guide to families
• 33:57
  Speaker 9: that if you are sending your students to these colleges,
• 34:00
  Speaker 9: this is what you should know, and this is what
• 34:02
  Speaker 9: our recommendation to that you should be taking the or
• 34:04
  Speaker 9: not you know, taking these courses that are going to
• 34:06
  Speaker 9: be a waste of your time and that are not
• 34:08
  Speaker 9: going to embed the type of knowledge that you know,
• 34:10
  Speaker 9: students really should be graduating with if they're going to
• 34:13
  Speaker 9: an institution like this.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: Well, back to the compact, you guys are incentivizing the
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: states to to try to or you're trying to entice
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: the states to do more of this work. What are
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: some of the specifics that that you're asking the states
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: to do.
• 34:27
  Speaker 9: Yeah, So my colleagues and I put together model state
• 34:30
  Speaker 9: legislation that can help guide lawmakers and the ways in
• 34:32
  Speaker 9: which they can act a lot of these reforms to
• 34:34
  Speaker 9: state level. So one of the things is under kind
• 34:38
  Speaker 9: of the marketplace of ideas and civil discourse. So it's
• 34:40
  Speaker 9: you know, refusing to establish engage higher and maintaindi authored
• 34:44
  Speaker 9: in personnel. It's to administer a free expression training to
• 34:47
  Speaker 9: all newly enrolled students on their rights under the First Amendment.
• 34:51
  Speaker 9: It's under financial responsibility and accountability. It's requiring public institutions
• 34:56
  Speaker 9: and their state to annually publish on their website the
• 34:59
  Speaker 9: findinancial and workforced outcomes of graduates for every academic program
• 35:04
  Speaker 9: at that institution, and for the State hired fees regulator
• 35:07
  Speaker 9: to conduct a comprehensive review every five years. And then, last,
• 35:11
  Speaker 9: but not least, in terms of foreign entanglements, is to
• 35:14
  Speaker 9: disclose any foreign gift or brander contract that is valued
• 35:17
  Speaker 9: at fifty thousand or more that's coming from a foreign
• 35:20
  Speaker 9: foreign actor. And then it's to refuse any agreement with
• 35:23
  Speaker 9: a foreign source in a country of concern like China,
• 35:26
  Speaker 9: Russia and Venezuela and others. So there's about ten different
• 35:29
  Speaker 9: buckets of things that you are recommending the States to do.
• 35:32
  Speaker 9: That's just kind of a quick highlight of some of
• 35:34
  Speaker 9: the efforts there.
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: Well, I thank you to be applauded for what you're accomplishing,
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: and thanks for doing it. Madison Marino, don please come
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: back and join us again sometime.
• 35:43
  Speaker 9: Thanks so much. Kevin, you got it.

  Speaker 2: Welcome back, Glad you're with us. Kevin McCullough We've got
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: such a great second hour in store for you today.
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: Today's the day where we talk about things that keep
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: you healthy. And one of the things that you may
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: have noticed is I have several sponsors that are all
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: about trying to help you stay healthy. Whether it's Great
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: Health Insurance and Vic Pritchard with Direct DFW Direct Insurance
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: and getting the best bargain for the dollars that you're
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: paying for it, or whether it's folks like doctor Laura
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: Party who is focusing on telemedicine in a way that
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: nobody else is in the country right now, whether it's
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: a PhD weight loss and helping me lose about eighteen
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: pounds in just a couple of weeks, like or a
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: few weeks, not a couple of weeks, but really really
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: good folks that really care about your well being. I
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: want to talk to you about doctor Laura Perty for
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: a second. Let me ask you something. Have you ever
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: gotten sick and thought I should probably see a doctor
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: and then immediately your brain starts racing. Mind does this
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: all the time, and you figure out if I'm going
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: to go to urgent care or if I'm going to
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: go to my doctor's office. Do I have in the appointment.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: How long will I have to wait? What's the protocol?
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: How much of my day will it eat up? And
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: when I discovered Swell Medical and doctor lor Perty, I'm
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: telling you my life changed dramatically. Swell Medical gives you
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: access to real clinicians online for things that people deal
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: with every day, like this, you need a medication represcribed,
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: you need something for you have a sinus infection, you
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: need it diagnosed. You have a rash or lab work
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: travel medications before a trip. Maybe you want some medical
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: provider guided weight loss support. Instead of sitting in a
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: waiting room surrounded by people that are coughing on each other.
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: You can get care from wherever you happen to be home, work,
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: even while you're traveling. And I believe that healthcare shouldn't
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: require rearranging your entire schedule. If you've been putting off
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: taking care of something that you need to take care of,
• 38:22

  Speaker 2: our country in the army and when she got out

  Speaker 2: some very important topics with doctor Ray Solano, who is
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: doctor pharmacy and he is on the cutting edge of
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: several issues that impact us in a very dramatic way,
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: and I want you to stick around for that. Plus,
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: last night, of course, was another primary election night, and
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: I've got some observations about the outcomes of that, and
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: we need to have great clarity when we go into
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: that voting booth there in that first week of November,
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: and I hope that that's what this show will provide you,
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: is some clear thinking in a very very set of
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: confusing days. Calvin mccalloch coming right backed Uncle.

  Speaker 6: It's Kevin McCullough Monday through Friday on That Kevin Show

  Speaker 6: and now from the Connors in Sullivan Podcast Studios.
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: The man who is not what he wants to be.
• 42:08
  Speaker 6: But is way grateful that is not who he used
• 42:12
  Speaker 6: to be here, all.
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: Right, Welcome in, Kevin mccallaugh. Glad to have you with us.
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: You know, on Wednesdays we focus at least a portion
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: of this hour on health and welfare, and we're going
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: to talk about that coming up in just a few minutes.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: But I've got to talk about last night's primary results
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: in the states that did hold their primaries. The election cycle,
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: I'm calling it a really hot mess. And the mess
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: isn't by accident, at least it's not appearing to be,
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: but it does seem to be a comedy of grotesque
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: falsehoods and errors and all kinds of fakeries that I think,
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: even if they've been purposefully doing this for a while,
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: at the end of the day, hey, this is not
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: what you want your party to devolve into as you're
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: heading down the stretch towards the elections. Here's where we're
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: at in the primary cycle. Fake polling, fake new positions,
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: fake new promises, all being rolled out the moment that
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: the real numbers start to get really ugly. And even
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: if you just put the last few days side by side,
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: you won't get a party having a bad week. You
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: get a party that's forgotten how to tell the truth
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: to its own voters. Let's start with polling for a second.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: A firm called Median Strategy spent this summer feeding the
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: political bloodstream with fabricated surveys. They said that Karen Bass
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: had a twelve point lead in the Los Angeles mayor's race,
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: a twenty point Francesca Hong lead in the Wisconsin Democratic
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: gubernatorial primary. Local news picked up these polls, social media
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: ran with them. They printed them like they were gospel truth.
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: The whole problem was the company admitted that all of
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: them were fake. They didn't have real data, they didn't
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: do real polling. The company called itself a short term
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: social experiment to examine how purported polling information could enter
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: and spread through the political information ecosystem without independent verification. Well,
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: I think you were successful in that. And guess what,
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: a lot of us already believed that and didn't need
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: you to do this little experiment to try to prove
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: it to us. Michigan Senate nominee Abdul l. Sayed got
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: caught by CNN erasing old posts and declaring the stuff
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: that was put up there, like fireworks suck, and linking football,
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: pickup trucks, and other close cousins in American iconography. He
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: now claims to love to slavery. So if you were
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: a fan of football, you were a racist in some way.
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: If you were a fan of pickup trucks, you were
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: a racist. And fireworks are terrible. Add to that his
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: well documented I hate Anti I hate Mackinac Island fever,
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: as Hugh Hewitt put it, swapping out disdain for one
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: of Michigan's most beloved landmarks for a sudden, convenient love
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: of states tradition. The moment of a general election against
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: Mike Rogers made those old positions really inconvenient.
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: What did he do?
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: He raced him, gone, deleted memory hold, and he's hardly
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: alone in wanting to run away from stuff that's been posted.
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: Alexandria Ocazio Cortees, New York District fourteen had to answer
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: to her own defund the police history and what did
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: she do? She waved it off as woke one point
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: zero and she called herself crazy, as though a belief
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: system can be retired like a bad haircut instead of
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: renounced with an actual apology. Meanwhile, Florida, backed by the DSA,
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: Senate nominee Angie Nixon, just knocked off a sixteen million
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: dollar war chest with barely a tenth of the money,
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: and congressional candidate Elijah Manley spent his campaign arguing it
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: was unacceptable for a white Democrat to hold historically back
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: black seat. He said that out loud on NBC. Here's
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: what he said. Elijah Manley spent his campaign arguing it
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: was unacceptable for a white Democrat to hold a historically
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: black seat. So pardon me if I'm skeptical when Democratic
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: leaders suddenly discovered that some of this might be a
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: little much. Haley Stephen says, it certainly makes sense to
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: ditch El Sayed's alliance with Hassan Piker, who said he
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: wants to wipe his backside with the Constitution. But that
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: revelation arrived before Poland showed l Sayed trailing Republican Mike Rogers.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: Hakeem Jeffrey suddenly wants everyone to know he doesn't support
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: Medicare for All the DSA agenda as has been articulated
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: by the DSA itself, except Jeffreys co sponsored their central argument,
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: Medicare for All twenty nineteen twenty twenty one. Seven incumbent
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: House Democrats have already lost primaries to the DSA. Jared Moskowitz,
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: to his credit, actually beat back a DSA challenger in
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: Florida and said plainly what he thought about it. Good
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: for Moscowitz at least somebody said it before a polster
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: told him to. But this Democratic Party had to see
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: this coming. They let the tiger into the tent, thinking
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: they could pet him and feed him and eventually domesticate him.
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: They can't. You can't make a tiger your pet. He's
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: going to eventually eat you. The DSA's new workers deserve
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: more platform calls for all of this abolishing Ice and
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: the Senate, subordinating the presidency in the Supreme Court to Congress,
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: and defunding police toward of eventual abolition. That's not somebody
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: at Fox News describing it. That's their platform. And these
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: aren't activists shouting from the sidewalk anymore. They're winning democratic
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: primaries and defeating democratic incumbents. That's the part Jeffrey's company
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: suddenly seem very interested in discussing. Well, welcome to the conversation.
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: Voters are entitled to ask where everybody was before these
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: losses started piling up. If these ideas are wrong now,
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: were they wrong two years ago? If l Syed's associations
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: are troubling with a bad podcaster, now, why did it
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: take bad polling to make them troubling now? And if
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: Woke one point zero was crazy, who exactly made it crazy?
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: These aren't trick questions. They're the questions you get when
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: political reinvention starts happening faster than voters can refresh their browsers.
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: And that's what's made this entire summer feel so dishonest.
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: Bogus polls can become news before or anybody verifies them.
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: Old positions disappear when they're inconvenient, yesterday's allies become today's liabilities.
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: Politicians who helped push the ideas suddenly announced that they
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: never particularly liked any of those ideas after all. Friends,
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: my head spinning. Maybe voters won't notice, but I think
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: they will, because eventually there is one poll nobody can fake,
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: scrub de lead, or explain away after the fact election day.
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: Believe what they've shown you, not what they say, because
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: they've been showing it all summer, all right, Kevin McCollough,
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: that was you know, last night. They were very interesting races,
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: and the fact that the DSA candidates continued to kind
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: of break through on multiple levels. It just it really
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: seems to me to say that this is a democratic
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: party that is in really deep weeds. They don't know
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: what they're doing, they haven't found their way forward, and
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: they need to prepare themselves for a real fight if
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: they want to have if they want their party to
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: have any sense of integrity and dignity to it, they
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: need to think twice about adopting all of these communists
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: and Marxists and Islamic radicals as they're spokespeople, because that's
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: not what America is looking for. I can just tell
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: you right up front, all right, Kelvin mccallough, We've got
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: a great show for you. Stick around. We are going
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: to talk a lot about health and hope that you
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: would be benefited by all of it. It's Wellness Wednesday,
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: Kevin mccallough.
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere.
• 51:02
  Speaker 11: Here.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: He is from New York, that Kevin. Kevin McCullough, all.

• 51:19
  Speaker 2: that will help make us well, that will help us
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: to live a wellness lifestyle, a healthier lifestyle. And it's
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: one of the reasons why I interact with everyone from
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: top heart surgeons at places like NYU and Columbia and others,
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: to nutritionists to fitness experts, to doctors of all types
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: of specialties. And I'm very honored to have back with
• 51:42

  Speaker 2: need from a pharmacy that you can trust and from
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: a practice that has earned its reputation as being just

  Speaker 2: that for everybody that they serve and pdlabs rx dot

• 52:16
  Speaker 2: But I really really recommend pd labs rx dot com.
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: Doctor Solana, welcome back. It's good to see you. I
• 52:23
  Speaker 2: have been hearing at times that there are those that
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: have I guess the word would be poo pooed the
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: idea that personalized medicine is something that should ever be considered.
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: And I know that personalized medication for an individual is
• 52:45
  Speaker 2: hard to come by, or at least theoretically it's hard
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: to come by because the shelves in the stores are
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: full of stuff that are supposed to be for everybody
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: general use one one stop, you know, one one size
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: fits all. But talk to us about this controversy kind
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: of where it came from and why it's in large
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: measures should just be demthed.
• 53:07
  Speaker 5: Well that's a good, good question. Thanks for having me
• 53:09
  Speaker 5: back on again. Because we want to educate all the
• 53:13
  Speaker 5: listeners as to what choices they have in their healthcare
• 53:17
  Speaker 5: and there's not a better choice in healthcare than personalized
• 53:21
  Speaker 5: medications and personalized dosing that is specific to the patients
• 53:26
  Speaker 5: and the patient's needs. And you know, it is impossible
• 53:32
  Speaker 5: for a big pharmaceutical company to have literally hundreds of
• 53:37
  Speaker 5: different dosage forms of pharmaceuticals, and so you know, we
• 53:43
  Speaker 5: hope that you can get close for that eighty percent
• 53:45
  Speaker 5: of the population. But there's a good chance that different
• 53:51
  Speaker 5: dosage forms can be very very therapeutic for patients and
• 53:57
  Speaker 5: different to help them. That's where this era of personalized medications.
• 54:02
  Speaker 5: So are compounded medications, and this is not a new concept.
• 54:08
  Speaker 5: Pharmacists and physicians and have been doing it since the
• 54:12
  Speaker 5: beginning of time. And somehow we got a little off
• 54:16
  Speaker 5: the rails here that somebody else kind of did all
• 54:20
  Speaker 5: the preparation and compounding and making everything for patients to
• 54:27
  Speaker 5: a third party. However, compounding pharmacy has grown to extraordinary lengths,
• 54:35
  Speaker 5: especially during shortages and when medications are not available, and
• 54:41
  Speaker 5: so this industry of personalized medication is very, very regulated,
• 54:48
  Speaker 5: it's very invested with a lot of capital for the
• 54:53
  Speaker 5: right equipment, and we just want to make sure people
• 54:55
  Speaker 5: realize this is not something that's in fear. Personalized medicine
• 55:02
  Speaker 5: has a tremendous benefit for patients, and it should be
• 55:06
  Speaker 5: easy for people to do that. It's probably easier to
• 55:12
  Speaker 5: get a tailor made suit sometimes than a special medical
• 55:17
  Speaker 5: special dosage form of a unique culinic acid drug, so
• 55:23
  Speaker 5: it is easy. Unfortunately, here's the difficult thing is many
• 55:30
  Speaker 5: large clinics, large practices, large hospital clinics, they don't have
• 55:36
  Speaker 5: these special compounding pharmacies on their formulary or a way
• 55:41
  Speaker 5: to even order the medications. Their software is not programmed properly.
• 55:48
  Speaker 5: So unfortunately, you know, practitioners are busy, they don't have
• 55:53
  Speaker 5: time to They've got literally minutes per patient. They don't
• 55:58
  Speaker 5: have time to get to order these medications if it's
• 56:01
  Speaker 5: not electronically programmed.
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: So I was going to ask you, is it more
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: of a pharmacy fulfillment problem or is it more of
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: a doctor's prescription problem? Because I've known people in my
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: own circle of you know network that have had the
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: right medicine but they've had the wrong dosage and it
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: wasn't until they had suffered through the wrong dosage for
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: maybe a cycle or two that the doctor goes, well,
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: maybe this we maybe we should increase this or decrease
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: this and not by a lot, sometimes just by a
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: little bit in terms of what the dose, but like
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: the difference between taking it as slightly too much or
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: slightly too little and then getting it exactly right is
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: the difference in night and day for the actual patient
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: it's exactly right.
• 56:46
  Speaker 5: A good indication or a good example that is low
• 56:49
  Speaker 5: dose now trek Zone. Low dose now trek Sound is
• 56:53
  Speaker 5: a drug that's been around for quite a long period
• 56:56
  Speaker 5: of time and has had many different uses. But the
• 56:59
  Speaker 5: dose can be less than one percent difference between two
• 57:04
  Speaker 5: different patients, and it's a big difference between one they
• 57:08
  Speaker 5: can't even take it at all, or it has tremendous
• 57:11
  Speaker 5: positive effects. So you have to personalize that medication and
• 57:17
  Speaker 5: it is. The practitioners just need to be educated as
• 57:20
  Speaker 5: to how to order them. You would think that that
• 57:23
  Speaker 5: would be so easy to do, but sometimes it's still
• 57:27
  Speaker 5: a stumbling block of a little bit of learning just
• 57:30
  Speaker 5: to be able to know how to ask the right
• 57:35
  Speaker 5: questions or to spend five minutes with some training with
• 57:38
  Speaker 5: a pharmacist when we can definitely do it. But you're right,
• 57:43
  Speaker 5: the difference between a one milligram of a drug is
• 57:48
  Speaker 5: like night and.
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: Day, well and as I'm thinking about. And by the way, friends,
• 57:52
  Speaker 2: if you want more information on this or any of
• 57:54
  Speaker 2: the other things that doctor Solano refers to, go to
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: pdlabsrx dot com pd labs RX. But I want to
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: ask you about this, doctor Ray, because if you think
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: about the emergence of telehealth, if you think about the
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: emergence of even urgent care, on some level, we've gone
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: from everybody going to the emergency room or everybody going
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: to the primary care office and packing out the place
• 58:21
  Speaker 2: to increasingly having more options for the patient themselves to
• 58:27
  Speaker 2: kind of self determine what they need and what works
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: best for them in terms of medical care. Now, I'm
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: not suggesting that doctors should be replaced by patients judgment
• 58:37
  Speaker 2: or what they think. That's why we have such special
• 58:41
  Speaker 2: relationships with our doctors. But it seems like the whole
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: trend in the rest of healthcare is to personalize, personalize, personalize.
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: It seems it would be very backward to keep this
• 58:54
  Speaker 2: area of medicine not trending in that direction.
• 58:59
  Speaker 5: That's right, and it's usually based on myths of being unsafe,
• 59:06
  Speaker 5: being unregulated, or this is sketchy, and you be I'm
• 59:11
  Speaker 5: sometimes shocked that these assumptions are still out there. Uh
• 59:16
  Speaker 5: there's we hold classes at conferences on just how to
• 59:20
  Speaker 5: teach practitioners how to order compounded medications, what strengths, what dosages,
• 59:27
  Speaker 5: So we have.
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: To almost are those well attended?
• 59:30
  Speaker 5: Yes they are, and I've taught them, and there's lots
• 59:34
  Speaker 5: of questions that are so very basic. Unfortunately, it's just
• 59:38
  Speaker 5: they're just not trained in medical school.
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: Well, and I heard you giggle there for a second,
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: but not long ago, I was talking to a physician.
• 59:46
  Speaker 2: He asked me, said, Kevin, imagine you know what you
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: think about, you know, a medical degree in medical training.
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: How much time do you think they spend in medical
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: school on total nutrition? And it ended up being some
• 59:59
  Speaker 2: sort of like tiny little percent of the entire time
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: they were in medical school what they spent on actual
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 2: preventative nutrition and how that impacts the health of the patient.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: And in reality, sometimes the things that you need to
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 2: really know the best are things that they didn't even
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: really if they covered them. They just flew over them
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: in med school.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 5: Well exactly. And then I think we're in this era
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 5: that we're in this drop down menu or what's available.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 5: Let somebody else what's in a formulay just pick and choose.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 5: But if you had to start from scratch and say
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 5: I want this particular drug, you have to know a
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 5: little bit about that drug and understanding what the dose
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 5: is are so many many time we got phone calls
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 5: and say, Ray, I want to be able to get
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 5: this drug. What dose should we use? So I says, well, okay,
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 5: let's go through the clinicals.
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: What do you think?
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 5: And we go back and forth and say let's start
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 5: out at this strength and then that's how it starts.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 5: And then after a while, everybody knows what the right
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 5: doses are for these off label drugs. Ivermectin, okay, the
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 5: dose for ivermectin for many different conditions is The listing
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 5: of strengths is a mile long. It seems like every
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 5: day it changes. And this is why it's a relationship,
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 5: partnership between a medical community and a pharmacies that are
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 5: at work extremely well for patient care. A little bit
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 5: of work though, that's it.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 2: We're speaking with doctor Ray Solano and Ray always appreciate
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: your insights. Stay with us. Got to take a quick
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 2: commercial break, be right back.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: Stick around for more of that. Kevin next here. He
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: is from New York That Kevin is Kevin McCullough.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: Kevin McCulla glad to have you back with us. Pd
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: LABSRX dot com is the online pharmacy outlet that you
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: can get to be in touch with doctor Ray Solano,
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 2: his entire team at pd labs compound pharmacy at its
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: highest level. It's really the elite compound pharmacy in the
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 2: country as far as I'm concerned. But go and check
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: them out pdlabsrex dot com. Ray, you were talking about
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 2: personalized medication, and I think that doctors being aware that
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 2: maybe different doses, doses should be applied in certain instances
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: is a good start. I think knowing that compound pharmacies
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: can service that you know, possibility is a great start.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: What about for the patient? When would the patient need
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: to know if the medical the dose I've been given
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: isn't the right one? How do they like it? Because
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: if if an internist, you know, in a doctor's office,
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 2: says here's what the doctor said, and he gives you
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: the prescription, you're going to trust that that's what they
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: need to know. How does the patient themselves stay in
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: the know on this.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 5: Well, that's a good question. I think it's important for
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 5: them to be aware of their body, of their symptoms,
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 5: and wherever they're getting their medications from. They have be
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 5: able to have that relationship with that pharmacy and pharmacists
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 5: and say, look, this is the side effects that we're getting.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 5: This is something I don't feel well with. It's not working,
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 5: and then we can analyze that and say, you know what,
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 5: maybe that the dose is too high, Well that's what's
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 5: causing the side effect, as opposed to abandon the drug.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 5: Just think about thyroid medication. It is so difficult to
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 5: find tune. It's just like it's almost like fine tuning
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 5: an engine. I know a lot of people don't adjust
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 5: engines anymore. But once you get to that sweet spot,
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 5: the entire body's hormone system all is finally tuned and
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 5: you have to be able to get to that correct dosage.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 5: And many times it's a couple of adjustments in the
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 5: half a milligrand it's especially compounded dosage form for that
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 5: person or child makes a huge difference. So you start
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 5: there and guess what. Unfortunately, when you're doing a telemedicine
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 5: pharmacy that you don't even know who they are and
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 5: you haven't talked to them. Be careful. Seems to be
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 5: very very common today that you don't need to talk
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 5: to anybody. Unfortunately, in many cases there's a lot of
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 5: downfall for that. Having a for one on one conver
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 5: station is usually very beneficial.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: Well, and I think that that's one of the reasons
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: why I love the fact that both you at pdlabs
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: rx dot com and doctor Laura Purty are both sponsors
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 2: of my show because as kind of cutting edge technological
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: online practices with compound pharmacy and uh, you know, general
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 2: medical care, you guys are you're on the edge. You're
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 2: giving that incredible patient care and patient treatment, and yet
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 2: you have these rich histories of knowledge and you're you know,
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: you really know what you're rooted in. And that's that's
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 2: why I'm so proud.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: Friends.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: Pdlabs rx dot com is the compound pharmacy I trust,
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: and they can service you from anywhere in the country
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 2: pd labs rx dot com, pdlabs rx dot com. They're
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: physically based in Texas, but if you're not in Texas
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: as I'm not, I'm in New York City, you can
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: you can access them and you can speak to doctor
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 2: Solano and his team literally from anywhere p d labs
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 2: RX dot com, pd labs rx dot com. There's probably
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: people listening right now, Ray that have said, you know,
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 2: I've had I've had a question about maybe a certain
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 2: medication that I've taken. Where do you have the beginning
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: of that conversation.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 5: Well, unfortunately, good luck trying to get a hold of
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 5: your primary care practitioner. We try to contact them just
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 5: to be able to help people with the refills, and
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 5: unfortunately they're just so overworked and there is such a
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 5: difficult job that they're doing and they may not be
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 5: able to get those answers back. Your pharmacies are usually
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 5: very pharmacists is very accessible and very willing to help out,
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 5: especially with that medication that you've gotten it from. And
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 5: hopefully the medication that you've received comes from a pharmacy
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 5: that you know and somebody that you've had communication with,
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 5: because you many have a lot of questions, and I
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 5: think that's that's the first start. Start with the pharmacy
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 5: and be able to somebody you can reach. Sometimes some
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 5: of these big box uh pharmacies, they're over work too.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 2: If I was about to ask, so if I have
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 2: just a run of the mill doctor here in Manhattan,
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: and he writes me a prescription and I go to
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 2: Walgreens and they fill it and I have a problem
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: if I call them back. Does that pharmacist have the
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: power to say, oh, wait a minute, your dosage is wrong,
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: let's let's dial you down. Or do they have to
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 2: go to the primary care as well?
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 9: Well?
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 5: The money the pharmacists are into their farm dees there
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 5: spend a tremendous amount of time with education's clinicals and
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 5: have the competency to be able to ask the right
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 5: questions to could commune uncate directly with the position themselves directly,
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 5: so they have the clinical background to be able to
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 5: help them to be able to answer those questions. They
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 5: can't change the medifications or change the directions, but they
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 5: could give some color as to what the choices are.
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 5: And so that's really a good resource, you know, in
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 5: a sense that should be. That's part of the medication
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 5: counseling that everybody has to do anyway.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 2: Well, and it's just kind of common sense. But you know,
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 2: in this state, doctor Solano, common sense does it always
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 2: make sense? All right? If you want more information pd
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: labs rx dot Com. Pd Labs rx dot com. So
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 2: glad to have you with us on this wellness linesday.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: Here he is from New York. Fact Kevin McCullough.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: All right, I need to find out if there's a
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 2: peptide to help the brain work better. Because I gave
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 2: you the wrong website going to the break, please make
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 2: note of this pd Labs RX dot com. Pd Labs
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: RX dot com and doctor Ray Solano is the proprietor
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 2: of PDA Labs and has been studying this stuff for
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: longer than you know most people understand. But doctor Solano,
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 2: let me ask you the peptides themselves, these are naturally
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 2: occurring substances, right do you talk about amino acids. They're
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 2: they're naturally they appear in our body. We have a
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 2: lot of them already in our system from the beginning.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 2: So I can't imagine that the FDA approval to get
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 2: them to be used, you know, at least in theory,
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 2: should have been all that troublesome. But they have thrown
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 2: up roadblocks for certain types of pharmacies and certain types
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 2: of doctors and so forth to have access to them.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: What is the justification that they give for saying, well,
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 2: Walgreens and right aid. You're okay, but you know PD labs,
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 2: we got to watch you a little bit more close.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 2: Like I don't understand the difference between why they prejudice
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: types of pharmacies against each other.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 5: That's a real good question. And the classifications of the
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 5: big box pharmacies. They take pre manufactured drugs from pharmaceutical
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 5: manufacturers already prepared. Everybody had done, unpack it, count it,
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 5: be able to put it in the right bottle with
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 5: the right label, and send it out. They don't make it,
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 5: touch it. They just dispense it. Okay. They make sure
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 5: they get the right drug for the right patient. You know.
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 5: That's that's important. Compounding pharmacies for things that drugs that
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 5: pharmaceutical companies don't make anymore. Okay, they there's dose.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of really good drugs that they don't
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 2: make anymore.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 5: That's exactly right. Some of the oldest, the oldies, but
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 5: goodies is about twenty percent of the items. And we
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 5: make it in low doses or different doses. And so
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 5: we take bulk pharmaceuticals API. We call it bulk pharmaceuticals,
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 5: and we customize that to whatever the physician wants. But however,
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 5: the FDA wants control of that because the final product,
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 5: they want to be able to approve it. Well, you
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 5: can't really approve something you've made for one person and
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 5: they want it, they need it in twenty minutes, so
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 5: it's just not practical. So this is the rub. And
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 5: sometimes these are injectables. Okay, we do in jactables the
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 5: same way. We don't do specific but our pharmacies do,
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 5: and so this is an area that they want to control.
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 5: So it's all about control of health care. But pharmacists
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 5: have been doing this for hundreds and hundreds of years.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 5: Physicians have been knowledgeable. They don't need somebody to really
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 5: tell them what works and what doesn't work. So this
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 5: is the part that we feel that the federal government
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 5: needs to work with the medical community as opposed to
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 5: making up the rules all themselves.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 2: And your particular clinic. With PD labs, you have pharmacists
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 2: and medical physicians that are all part of the team.
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 2: So you've kind of got like cross layering of double
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 2: checking of information and a lot of accountability in terms
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: of the formulas that you're creating and so forth. So
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 2: there's like layers of of knowledge that are going into
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: every prescription that you fell exactly.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 5: We run a partnership with the clinical of our Performance
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 5: Health Center. We have medical directors and we practice you know,
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 5: they practice medicine. They have all label usage of drugs
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 5: just like anywhere else. They know what works and more.
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 2: Americans didn't even understand that term until COVID came along.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 2: And then we found out first of all that if
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 2: we raised our hands and asked questions, we were going
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 2: to be labeled like crazy people crazy. But then everything
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 2: that we asked questions about turned out actually did work
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 2: and kind of better than all the stuff that FUCI
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 2: came up with. So it's like, that's right, I don't know,
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 2: it seem like you just kind of shot yourself in
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 2: the foot on that one. This FDA operates differently than
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 2: those people did, and that's why they're taking a look
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 2: at this this week.
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 5: That's right. It is the a watershed event that's going
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 5: on the twenty third to twenty fourth, And there's never
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 5: been a time that we've had like minded professionals from
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 5: all different areas of specialties speaking out for the for
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 5: evidence based for patients' health. So we really are optimistic
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 5: that there is even though this vote is non binding, okay,
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 5: but the direction is going to be clear, and there
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 5: is huge amount of capital going into manufacturing these plants.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 5: So you got money, you have people that are health
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 5: is at stake, and you have a government that is
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 5: actually looking to reduce health care costs. So I think
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 5: it's the first time ever. So I'm cautiously optimistic.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 2: It's like a perfect storm in terms of people that
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 2: are interested in it, and I hope that that is successful.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 2: There's all of these prescription drug commercials that come on
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 2: and they seem to have an endless number of them
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 2: on those big events. Especially what's you're feeling about having
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 2: those kinds of ads on TV.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 5: Well, we're the only country in the world that allows that.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 5: Everybody else, it's direct advertisement to consumers is banned in
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 5: most industrialized countries. They've been talked about it, even Bill
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 5: Clinton's administration, they were going to ban it. Three hundred
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 5: and fifty billion dollars a year is spent billions of
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 5: dollars on advertisement from big pharma. They know that this
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 5: is the way to get the word out to patients
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 5: that they influence their healthcare. It doesn't matter the numbers
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 5: speak for themselves. They put billions and people that are
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 5: taking those drugs. Okay, they're going to go and ask
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 5: for those drugs at their appointment. That is, Medicare covers
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 5: for it. The insurance companies cover for it the thousands
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 5: and thousands of dollars.
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 2: All right, well, good news, and I'll have to have
• 1:15:56

• 1:15:58

• 1:17:25
  Speaker 2: the social media, everything that I do is there in
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 2: one spot. And I hope that you'll check that out.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 2: But here's here's the here's the interesting thing about this.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 2: I want you to be healthy. And I remember many
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 2: many years ago, long before this headline that I'm about
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 2: to tell you about came out, when my mom was
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 2: doing a lot of extra research on cancers because she'd
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 2: been diagnosed with stage two breast cancer. And as a
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 2: high school watching your mom get sick and go through that,
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 2: it's just it was a really tough period of time.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 2: But she extended her life far beyond what the doctors
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 2: had said she could because she made some pretty dramatic
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 2: changes in our diet and just life as a family.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 2: But this was one of the things she flagged early on,
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 2: and it's been interesting to see how long it's taken
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 2: medicine to come around to what nutrition was saying a
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 2: long time ago. But this is the headline. Consuming one
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 2: sugary drink a day may significantly raise the risk of
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 2: developing stomach cancer, according to new research from Mass General Brigham.
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 2: After accounting for other risk factors, the researchers found that
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 2: one or more sugary drinks per day was linked to
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 2: nearly triple the risk of gastric cancer compared with fewer
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 2: than one serving per month. Roughly two thirds sixty three
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 2: percent of US adults report consuming sugar sweetened beverages at
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 2: least once per day. I don't I cannot drink sugary drinks.
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 1: It's just to me.
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 2: The calories are killer, but I just they're too sweet
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 2: for me. But sixty three percent of US adults report
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 2: doing that. While earlier studies linked sugary drinks to higher
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 2: rates of liver, breasts, coorectal, and coorectal malignancies, their specific
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 2: impact on gastric tissue had remained unclear until now. The
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 2: new study analyzed data for more than one hundred thousand
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 2: participants in the Nurses Health Study and the Health Professionals
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 2: follow Up Study. The long term prospective cohort studies, which
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 2: were managed by Harvard affiliated researchers, analyzed links between lifestyle,
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 2: diet chronic disease among healthcare workers. It's definitely a concern
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 2: because we are seeing an increase in cancers of the
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 2: gast gastrointestinal track, particularly in young people under fifty, said
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 2: senior author Andrew Chan, a gastronologist and epidemiologist with Mass
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 2: General Bringham Cancer Institute. In our increasing consumption of sugary
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 2: drinks and also ultra processed foods is likely to be
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: contributing to some of these cancer trends. Gastric cancer is
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 2: heavily linked to he Helicobacter pylori bacteria, a type of
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 2: bacteria that lives in the stomach lining and in a
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 2: subset of study participants, there was no connection found between
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 2: sugary drink intake and H. Pylori, strengthening the hypothesis that
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 2: sugar played the role. The researchers defined sugar sweetened drinks
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 2: as regular sodas, fruit punches, lemonade, sports beverages in which
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 2: fructose is the main sweetener. Higher fruittose consumption was associated
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 2: with greater stomach cancer risk. Artificially sweetened drinks like diet
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: sodas other localorie carbonated drinks were not linked to an
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 2: increase of gastric cancer in more than one hundred thousand subjects. So,
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 2: as my bride has been telling me for months, have
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 2: your fridge sig. Your diet Coke's not going to kill
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 2: you. Your regular coke might, but your diet coke's not going
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 2: to kill you. And evidently this this study from the
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 2: Mass General Brigham Cancer Institute in Boston seeming to verify that.
• 1:21:17
