Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
- 0:05Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show. Friday morning, tenth day of January.
- 0:12Speaker 2: I'm Wes. Thanks for joining me. Just a warning, want
- 0:17Speaker 2: to give you this heads up. I know everybody's got
- 0:19Speaker 2: all the weather concerns going on, depending on where you are,
- 0:26Speaker 2: or fire concerns. We do have people that listen in California,
- 0:32Speaker 2: so depending on where you are, you got a lot
- 0:34Speaker 2: of things to be concerned about with the weather situation
- 0:39Speaker 2: in large parts of the country and obviously the fires.
- 0:42Speaker 2: Just know we're all thinking about you. It's tough. It
- 0:45Speaker 2: can be tough here where we do the show and
- 0:48Speaker 2: talk about, oh my gosh, we're going to get part
- 0:51Speaker 2: of the snow mageddon. It looks like it's just going
- 0:52Speaker 2: to be rain mcgeddon, which is kind of normal. We
- 0:56Speaker 2: get the calls of it's going to be bad and
- 0:58Speaker 2: then it's really not so bad. But with potential icy
- 1:02Speaker 2: roads and areas, everybody just be careful out there. So
- 1:05Speaker 2: just a heads up. All right, let's get into some
- 1:09Speaker 2: strange and bizarre news. We got a few things to cover,
- 1:12Speaker 2: a few things to get into, and we want to
- 1:16Speaker 2: get to them on this Friday. That's what we do
- 1:19Speaker 2: on Fridays. That's what we're doing for this Friday. We're
- 1:21Speaker 2: going to start in North Korea, where apparently Kim Jong
- 1:26Speaker 2: un has criminalized possession of wieners in North Korea, all right,
- 1:38Speaker 2: and he does have some random laws, and apparently he
- 1:43Speaker 2: has decided that wieners are too Western, and he calls
- 1:48Speaker 2: ownership of a wiener an act of treason, and anyone
- 1:51Speaker 2: caught selling franks on the streets or cooking them in
- 1:55Speaker 2: their homes could be shipped off to labor camps. Dogs
- 2:00Speaker 2: and bonds growing in popularity, but Koreans are particularly fond
- 2:03Speaker 2: of a dish called army stew, which has wieners, spam, cabbage,
- 2:07Speaker 2: Korean hot pepper, paste, and broth. Now this army stew
- 2:13Speaker 2: dish is also now illegal. I guess that would make
- 2:16Speaker 2: sense since the wieners are illegal. That dish has been
- 2:20Speaker 2: popular in South Korea since the end of the Korean War,
- 2:25Speaker 2: something that came over from the States. So yeah, just
- 2:29Speaker 2: a heads up, if you're going to be traveling and
- 2:31Speaker 2: vacationing in North Korea, don't take any hot talks with you.
- 2:36Speaker 2: Just don't think about doing it. You don't want to
- 2:38Speaker 2: get you don't want to be in a labor camp.
- 2:39Speaker 2: You don't want to get in trudge. Too Western. It's
- 2:42Speaker 2: much too western, you know. I would say, yeah, wieners
- 2:47Speaker 2: and army stew are pretty Western. I guess. California man
- 2:52Speaker 2: who got upset with airline staff because they didn't react
- 2:59Speaker 2: after fellow passenger urinated on him during a lengthy flight
- 3:03Speaker 2: San Francisco to Manila, Jerome Gutierrez was happily snoozing away
- 3:10Speaker 2: in his business class seat when he was awakened by
- 3:13Speaker 2: the sensation of liquid hitting him. He came out of
- 3:17Speaker 2: a sleep and saw a man from a neighboring seat
- 3:24Speaker 2: drunkenly urinating on him, I mean, pants off and everything.
- 3:29Speaker 2: Gutierrez was shocked at the act, but more shocked at
- 3:31Speaker 2: the reaction of cabin crew members who refused to step
- 3:35Speaker 2: into intervene. His stepdaughter, who was traveling with him, said
- 3:39Speaker 2: he was told not to approach the man in fear
- 3:41Speaker 2: that there would be a confrontation and that he could
- 3:43Speaker 2: become violent. They put the airline's needs above his health,
- 3:48Speaker 2: you know. Not. An airline says that the perp, who
- 3:52Speaker 2: was not identified, was detained once the plan landed in Manila.
- 3:56Speaker 2: And has since been banned from the airline permanently. So
- 4:02Speaker 2: that's pretty disgusting, and being on a really long flight
- 4:09Speaker 2: on top of that. So yeah, I don't really know
- 4:13Speaker 2: the proper protocols and why they would have reacted the
- 4:18Speaker 2: way they did, unless maybe in the past someone has
- 4:20Speaker 2: urinated on someone else and they didn't handle it properly
- 4:24Speaker 2: and the guy got violent and they were like, well,
- 4:26Speaker 2: you know what, we're going to stop this policy of
- 4:29Speaker 2: confronting people urinating on each other and we'll just settle
- 4:32Speaker 2: it when we land. Maybe that's why. I don't know.
- 4:36Speaker 2: I don't know what the reasoning behind it is, but
- 4:39Speaker 2: it certainly doesn't sound like good customer service. California drivers
- 4:43Speaker 2: in jail and his passenger in a zoo. After a
- 4:48Speaker 2: bit of a strange traffic stop, California Highway patrolman stopped
- 4:53Speaker 2: a speeding Rolls Royce Ghost and arrested the twenty seven
- 4:56Speaker 2: year old driver, Ali Mussaid Adele Mohammed for driving while intoxicated.
- 5:03Speaker 2: But that's just the start. Further search of the vehicle
- 5:06Speaker 2: also turned up cannabis that was prepared for sale and
- 5:09Speaker 2: a baby spider monkey wearing a pink onesie can you
- 5:15Speaker 2: make this up? Authorities estimate the monkey to be around
- 5:18Speaker 2: a month old, believed to have been kept as an
- 5:20Speaker 2: illegal pet. Mohammad was taken to jail and the monkey
- 5:23Speaker 2: was turned over to Madera County's Animal Services, where it
- 5:27Speaker 2: was temporarily cared for and was then sent to the
- 5:30Speaker 2: Oakland Zoo where it will receive further care. Least it
- 5:35Speaker 2: was in a onesie. I mean, did he think it
- 5:38Speaker 2: was a baby? Did he put it in a onesie?
- 5:41Speaker 2: Or did he know that it was a monkey and
- 5:42Speaker 2: it was a pet. I don't know. They're cute, those
- 5:46Speaker 2: spider monkeys. Put it in a onesie. Give it a name.
- 5:50Speaker 2: That's all you gotta do. It's a baby. A Colorado
- 5:53Speaker 2: man will spend some time improving his penmanship if he
- 5:58Speaker 2: ever thinks about another tempted bank robbery. A man wearing
- 6:01Speaker 2: a hoodie and a hat, but with his face exposed
- 6:05Speaker 2: in clear view of surveillance cameras, walked into First National
- 6:09Speaker 2: Bank branch and handed a note to their teller, presumably
- 6:14Speaker 2: informing him it was a robbery and demanding money. But
- 6:17Speaker 2: while the man expected the teller to hand over the cash,
- 6:19Speaker 2: the tailler instead stared at the note and tried to
- 6:21Speaker 2: read his handwriting, couldn't do it. After a few moments,
- 6:26Speaker 2: the would be robber got frustrated and fled the scene
- 6:29Speaker 2: empty handed. Police have a clear picture of the man
- 6:32Speaker 2: and have been searching for him since. Just as a
- 6:36Speaker 2: side note, and I've talked about this a little bit
- 6:39Speaker 2: on non Friday shows. Most places are still letting you
- 6:44Speaker 2: wear the masks if you want to wear a COVID mask.
- 6:48Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean, I'm not I'm glad that
- 6:50Speaker 2: he wasn't for the purposes of this, but I'm a
- 6:53Speaker 2: little surprised that someone would try to rob a bank
- 6:55Speaker 2: without at least having a mask covering up their face.
- 6:59Speaker 2: I'll I'm concerned about the pandemic still right, all right?
- 7:05Speaker 2: An Alabama man who stripped naked and jumped into an
- 7:07Speaker 2: aquarium at a Bass Pro Shop store last year. We
- 7:10Speaker 2: gave you that story on a Friday. It's taken a
- 7:13Speaker 2: plea deal to stay out of jail. To go back
- 7:16Speaker 2: and revisit, forty three year old George Owens crashed his
- 7:19Speaker 2: car into a pole in the parking lot, stripped naked,
- 7:23Speaker 2: and then ran into the store. He then went directly
- 7:25Speaker 2: to a large aquarium, where he climbed up did a
- 7:28Speaker 2: cannon ball into the tank as one would do. You've
- 7:32Speaker 2: had a car accident in the parking lot, you know,
- 7:34Speaker 2: and there's a tank inside. Police arrived and convinced him
- 7:38Speaker 2: to climb out, but as they approached him, he shouted
- 7:40Speaker 2: at them and dove back in. I say what my
- 7:44Speaker 2: sons do when they said time to get out of
- 7:46Speaker 2: the pool and go home or back up to the
- 7:50Speaker 2: hotel room or you know whatever, andor just get out
- 7:54Speaker 2: to come eat all right, and then they jump back in.
- 7:58Speaker 2: Eventually he climbed out and fell to the concrete floor,
- 8:00Speaker 2: where he hit his head and was knocked unconscious. He
- 8:02Speaker 2: was arrested taking in for mental evaluation. Owens was charged
- 8:06Speaker 2: with public lewdnanus, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, assault on a
- 8:10Speaker 2: police officer, criminal mischief, reckless endangerment. He agreed to a
- 8:14Speaker 2: plea deal, which is a guilty plea, and to enter
- 8:19Speaker 2: a pre trial diversion program which will keep him out
- 8:22Speaker 2: of jail if he satisfactorily completes it. So good for him,
- 8:29Speaker 2: I mean, that's kind of you know, you're having your
- 8:31Speaker 2: cake and eating it too, naked cannonball into a bass
- 8:35Speaker 2: pro shop aquarium, and you just get to kind of
- 8:39Speaker 2: get off on this this plea deal that's saving your
- 8:43Speaker 2: cake and eat it too, i'd say. Naked Maryland driver
- 8:47Speaker 2: was rudely cut off by another motorist, but instead of
- 8:49Speaker 2: getting angry and turning it into a roads rate incident,
- 8:52Speaker 2: he turned it into a half a million dollar jackpot.
- 8:55Speaker 2: According to the Maryland Lottery, the driver was on the
- 8:57Speaker 2: highway when another driver cut in front of him. He
- 9:00Speaker 2: said he took a mental note of the driver's license
- 9:03Speaker 2: plate and then remembered the numbers. So he went to
- 9:06Speaker 2: a liquor store purchased ten Take five lottery tickets with
- 9:10Speaker 2: those exact numbers, and the numbers came up. Each ticket
- 9:14Speaker 2: was fifty thousand dollars in winnings, and that brought his
- 9:18Speaker 2: total haul from the ten tickets to half a million dollars.
- 9:22Speaker 2: I mean, that's one way to approach it. Some saying
- 9:28Speaker 2: he owes the other drivers a share of the pot. No,
- 9:31Speaker 2: the other driver was a jerk and that's the reason
- 9:33Speaker 2: he remembered the plate. But I don't know. He can
- 9:35Speaker 2: do what he wants to do with it. It's his money.
- 9:38Speaker 2: Let him have the tax part of it, because you
- 9:40Speaker 2: know you got that hefty tax coming on that winning.
- 9:44Speaker 2: Access to healthcare at a small village in Italy has
- 9:46Speaker 2: become so limited that the mayor has issued a proclamation
- 9:50Speaker 2: banning residents from getting sick. Well, that's one way to
- 9:52Speaker 2: do it. Why hadn't we thought of that sooner? It's
- 9:56Speaker 2: illegal to get sick. Actually sounds like of them we'd
- 10:00Speaker 2: try here. I mean it really does. You know you
- 10:05Speaker 2: can't take guns into those areas. Why do they have
- 10:08Speaker 2: a gun in that area? It's illegal. Mayor and Antonio
- 10:13Speaker 2: Torcia of Belcastro, a village in the Calabria Region Calabria, Calabria,
- 10:20Speaker 2: has ordered residents not to contract any illnesses that require
- 10:25Speaker 2: any medical attention where was this during COVID or engage
- 10:30Speaker 2: in any activities that could lead to injuries because the
- 10:32Speaker 2: nearest emergency hospital is located nearly thirty miles away and
- 10:36Speaker 2: getting there is quite difficult. There is one on call
- 10:40Speaker 2: doctor in the village, but he is not available on nights,
- 10:43Speaker 2: weekends or holidays. The village is home to about twelve
- 10:46Speaker 2: hundred residents, half of which are over the age of
- 10:48Speaker 2: sixty five. The mayor has urged everyone to spend the
- 10:52Speaker 2: majority of their time resting. Is that really the healthy
- 10:57Speaker 2: way to live just by resting all the time. I'm
- 11:00Speaker 2: pro resting, but they do need to get some kind
- 11:03Speaker 2: of exercise, right, especially those seniors. They got to keep
- 11:06Speaker 2: their bodies moving. A police officer in southern California captured
- 11:11Speaker 2: a funny New Year's Eve encounter with a drunk driving
- 11:13Speaker 2: suspect on his body cam with a clip going viral.
- 11:16Speaker 2: Officer Bridgewaters of the Murrietta Police Department noted a vehicle
- 11:23Speaker 2: swerving and then pulled the driver over to investigate a
- 11:26Speaker 2: possible DUI. The officer approached the driver and asked where
- 11:28Speaker 2: he was coming from. The driver responded that he was
- 11:31Speaker 2: out for a New Year's Eve and just dropped off
- 11:34Speaker 2: a friend because he's the designated driver, or that's what
- 11:38Speaker 2: he meant to say. What actually came out of his
- 11:41Speaker 2: mouth was I'm the DUI tonight. Bridgewaters asked, you mean
- 11:45Speaker 2: the d D, to which the driver was speechless. The
- 11:47Speaker 2: officer conducted a field sobriety test, which he failed, and
- 11:50Speaker 2: he was arrested for the driving under the influence. Yeah
- 11:56Speaker 2: that if he had just said designated driver, he'd gotten it. Out.
- 12:00Speaker 2: Maybe he would have been fine, but he blew it.
- 12:03Speaker 2: The honesty they call alcohol that honesty juice. You know,
- 12:08Speaker 2: sometimes you say things you'd tell the truth. A motorist
- 12:14Speaker 2: in Canada called the police to report a drunk driver,
- 12:17Speaker 2: but ended up being busted for DUI. Cops in Vancouver
- 12:21Speaker 2: say they received a call about a possible drunk driver
- 12:23Speaker 2: pulled over on the side of the road. When they
- 12:25Speaker 2: arrived at the scene, they found another motorist had intervened
- 12:28Speaker 2: and was preventing the suspected drunk from driving away. But
- 12:32Speaker 2: officers noticed the other motors was showing signs of being impaired,
- 12:35Speaker 2: so they conducted an alcohol screening test, which he ended
- 12:38Speaker 2: up failing. He was arrested, prohibited from driving for ninety days,
- 12:42Speaker 2: and had his car impounded. Meanwhile, the first driver who
- 12:46Speaker 2: had been suspected of being drunk was actually completely sober
- 12:50Speaker 2: and was only having trouble driving in the dark. Only
- 12:54Speaker 2: in Canada, I don't know. Police in Colorado responded to
- 12:58Speaker 2: a call about an illegally park car, which they've done
- 13:01Speaker 2: many times, but this one was different because it was
- 13:03Speaker 2: in the middle of a ski slope. The Summit County
- 13:07Speaker 2: Sheriff's office. As a driver was following GPS directions took
- 13:10Speaker 2: a wrong turn, which brought him onto the school Marm
- 13:15Speaker 2: ski run at the Keystone Resort. Skiers swooshing down the
- 13:19Speaker 2: slope were shocked to see a park car in the way.
- 13:21Speaker 2: The driver was not in the vehicle when police arrived,
- 13:25Speaker 2: but left a note on the window explaining what happened.
- 13:27Speaker 2: Police called a tow truck to remove the car, and
- 13:30Speaker 2: it's now been returned to its owner. This is an
- 13:33Speaker 2: episode of the office, wasn't it. They ended up in
- 13:35Speaker 2: a lake. It wasn't a ski slope, but they ended
- 13:40Speaker 2: up in a lake. I just wonder about leaving it
- 13:41Speaker 2: there because is it possible that he was the duy
- 13:46Speaker 2: that night? I mean, is that a possibility? And if
- 13:49Speaker 2: you just leave the car there with a note, then
- 13:53Speaker 2: they can't really test you and check you, can they?
- 13:56Speaker 2: And finally, a Missouri woman was sentenced to twelve years
- 14:00Speaker 2: in prison for setting fire to a house using Taki's
- 14:03Speaker 2: chips as an accelerant. Yeah, did you know that corn
- 14:08Speaker 2: chips of any kind? Doritos are great for starting fires.
- 14:12Speaker 2: If you're going camping and you don't take some doritos,
- 14:17Speaker 2: as it possible it's got oil. They burn really well.
- 14:21Speaker 2: Takis apparently does the same thing. I mean, it's just
- 14:24Speaker 2: like a dorrito. It's rolled up right. Forty three year
- 14:28Speaker 2: old Patricia Fay Williams was arrested in twenty twenty three
- 14:31Speaker 2: after she started the fire at a home where three people,
- 14:35Speaker 2: including one in a wheelchair, were inside. All were safely
- 14:39Speaker 2: able to leave the house. According to the fire Marshall,
- 14:41Speaker 2: Williams had been pouring gasoline from a soda bottle onto
- 14:44Speaker 2: clothes and then set fire to a bag of Taki's
- 14:47Speaker 2: chips and tossed them into the clothes. When police arrived,
- 14:50Speaker 2: they found Williams complaining of smoke inhalation and took her
- 14:54Speaker 2: to the hospital and there she was arrested. This week,
- 14:58Speaker 2: she agreed to plead guilty to a void trial. She
- 15:00Speaker 2: was sentenced to twelve years in prison and during the investigation,
- 15:04Speaker 2: Williams told police she knew the talkie chips would ignite
- 15:07Speaker 2: because of the high grease content. See there you go,
- 15:10Speaker 2: there you go. I mean you have them as a
- 15:13Speaker 2: snack when you're camping in case you want a snack,
- 15:17Speaker 2: but they're also readily available, great for starting campfires. Today's
- 15:22Speaker 2: show brought to you by Columbus State Universities Coca Cola

- 16:20Speaker 2: one of those things that when you're watching it in Columbus, Georgia,
- 16:23Speaker 2: you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia. I mean,

- 17:03Speaker 2: Cruisan says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I just
- 17:07Speaker 2: remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science
- 17:11Speaker 2: Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by
- 17:15Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage
- 17:19Speaker 2: door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
- 17:25Speaker 2: that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance
- 17:28Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 17:32Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 17:35Speaker 2: care of squaring that away for you, and while they're there,
- 17:38Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
- 17:40Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
- 17:44Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
- 17:47Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
- 17:49Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
- 17:52Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
- 17:56Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of installation
- 17:59Speaker 2: issue that you've got. With colder, warmer weather, sometimes that
- 18:03Speaker 2: stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at
- 18:06Speaker 2: a situation where you'd like to add a screen door
- 18:09Speaker 2: to your garage door system that you can put down
- 18:12Speaker 2: and you can use your garage space as a sort
- 18:15Speaker 2: of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like to
- 18:18Speaker 2: work on your own cars in there, or maybe you
- 18:20Speaker 2: just want a little man cavid you'd like to be
- 18:23Speaker 2: able to open the door up and not invite all
- 18:24Speaker 2: the insects in. They can do that for you as well,
- 18:28Speaker 2: and again they do after hours calls. There's nothing worse
- 18:31Speaker 2: than that thought of having your car trapped inside your
- 18:33Speaker 2: garage and your garage door won't open and you need
- 18:36Speaker 2: somebody to come help, and they do those as well.
- 18:40Speaker 2: Seven oh sixty five eight forty five hundred, seven oh

- 18:59Speaker 2: your doll does feel your stress. You're not imagining it.
- 19:04Speaker 2: They know that you're stressed. And it's more than that.
- 19:08Speaker 2: Dogs don't just pick up on the fact that owners
- 19:10Speaker 2: are stressed, but they then take on that stress. A
- 19:14Speaker 2: study from Queen's University Belfast found that dogs can actually
- 19:18Speaker 2: catch their owner's stress, kind of like an emotional mirror.
- 19:22Speaker 2: Researchers found that when owners were stressed, their dog's heart
- 19:25Speaker 2: rates would go up also, and when owners relax, their
- 19:28Speaker 2: pups chilled out as well. So the next time you're
- 19:31Speaker 2: feeling stressed, remember your dog may be feeling it too.
- 19:34Speaker 2: Might be a good time for a walk or just
- 19:37Speaker 2: you know, maybe just relax with the dog. Cuddle with
- 19:40Speaker 2: a dog be beneficial to both of you. Find something
- 19:44Speaker 2: that can you know the dog likes to do to
- 19:46Speaker 2: get them excited, something you can do together and maybe
- 19:49Speaker 2: unburden the dog from the stress if you're carrying it. Zoom,
- 19:55Speaker 2: a cosmetic surgery boom that started during the pandemic is
- 19:58Speaker 2: showing no signs of stop, as nearly ninety percent of
- 20:01Speaker 2: workers say they use video conferencing platforms more than three
- 20:04Speaker 2: days a week. A new study found that when we're
- 20:07Speaker 2: all on those zoom or team calls. We spend the
- 20:10Speaker 2: majority of time looking at ourselves rather than the person speaking.
- 20:14Speaker 2: Many people not happy with what they're seeing, so according
- 20:17Speaker 2: to the study, this created something called video video conferencing dysmorphia,
- 20:23Speaker 2: which has led to a rise in plastic surgery procedures.
- 20:25Speaker 2: According to research, fifty six percent of participants said video
- 20:29Speaker 2: calls influenced their desire to have a cosmetic procedure. Makes sense,
- 20:37Speaker 2: it does. Makes those zimpic thing. There's all the side
- 20:40Speaker 2: effects from that, so yes, those video calls may be
- 20:43Speaker 2: bad for your self image. The latest workout craze is
- 20:49Speaker 2: literally electric. Tom Holland, Kylie Jenner, Christy Tigan, or just
- 20:53Speaker 2: a few of the celebrities who've jumped into the EMS
- 20:55Speaker 2: fitness bandwagon. EMS stands for electrical muscle stimulation. In other words,
- 21:02Speaker 2: you get shocked while you are lifting weights. You wear
- 21:07Speaker 2: a damp, skin tight suit full of electrodes, which sends
- 21:10Speaker 2: small amounts of electricity straight to your muscles that makes
- 21:14Speaker 2: them contract hard as you're lifting really heavy weights. The
- 21:17Speaker 2: workouts last for just ten to twenty minutes, and experts
- 21:20Speaker 2: say you see serious results and as few as eight sessions.
- 21:25Speaker 2: The one drawback is that a single session can cost
- 21:28Speaker 2: as much as two hundred dollars, which if you're Kylie Jenner,
- 21:31Speaker 2: Chrissy Tigue or Tom Holland, it's no big deal, piece
- 21:34Speaker 2: of cake. But you know, I guess in eight sessions,
- 21:40Speaker 2: you know, you start, you go sixteen hundred dollars, you
- 21:44Speaker 2: have some results right away. I guess some people would
- 21:47Speaker 2: come up with a sixteen hundred bucks for that. If
- 21:50Speaker 2: you want to stay active in twenty twenty five, experts
- 21:53Speaker 2: say you should think about relocating to Hawaii. While at
- 21:57Speaker 2: Hub looked at one hundred and fifty of the largest
- 21:59Speaker 2: city as an American found the most in shape locale
- 22:02Speaker 2: is Honolulu. The data arranged from average monthly fitness club
- 22:07Speaker 2: fees to the city's bike score, to the share of
- 22:10Speaker 2: physically inactive adults, and according to their research, the best
- 22:14Speaker 2: cities in the US for active lifestyles are Honolulu, New York,
- 22:19Speaker 2: San Francisco, Las Vegas, and Chicago. On the flip side,
- 22:24Speaker 2: worst place to maintain a healthy lifestyle is North Las Vegas, Nevada,
- 22:28Speaker 2: followed by Irving, Texas, Fort Wayne, Indiana. So I mean
- 22:34Speaker 2: New York, San Francisco, Chicago. A lot of walking. There's
- 22:42Speaker 2: a lot of walking in those places. I guess that
- 22:44Speaker 2: makes some sense. I don't know if the amount of
- 22:45Speaker 2: walking that people do is factored in, but I don't
- 22:49Speaker 2: know how much walking happens in Honolulu, but I assume
- 22:53Speaker 2: probably do some. But if it's that other range as
- 22:56Speaker 2: far as the fitness club fees and things, and I
- 22:59Speaker 2: guess biking probably is pretty big there, all right. Babies
- 23:04Speaker 2: born this year will be the first of the Gen Beta.
- 23:07Speaker 2: We talked about that the other day. Parents will recently
- 23:09Speaker 2: asked what kind of life that the future holds for them.
- 23:12Speaker 2: A survey was conducted by Prudential. Here are some of
- 23:15Speaker 2: the responses. Eighty six percent believe Gen beta will hold
- 23:19Speaker 2: jobs that haven't even been invented yet. Sixty eight percent
- 23:23Speaker 2: said that they will have more pets than kids. Sixty
- 23:26Speaker 2: percent said Gen beta will stop using cash so the
- 23:29Speaker 2: government will eventually stop printing it. Fifty percent believe that
- 23:34Speaker 2: gen beta will cure cancer nice They believe that AI
- 23:38Speaker 2: will replace teachers in their lifetime. Forty six percent said
- 23:42Speaker 2: space will be the most popular vacation destination, could be
- 23:47Speaker 2: getting there really fast, and seventy one percent said that
- 23:51Speaker 2: Gen beta will have access to individualized healthcare based on
- 23:54Speaker 2: their DNA. Fifty nine percent think AI will be used
- 23:58Speaker 2: to predict and prevent health issues before the symptoms even uppear.
- 24:02Speaker 2: How about that? All right, that'll do it for this
