Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
- 0:05Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:09Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, second day of April. I'm Wes. Thanks for
- 0:14Speaker 2: joining me. Hope you survived your April Fool's Day. I
- 0:18Speaker 2: almost got got a few times, almost almost. There's one
- 0:25Speaker 2: moment where I saw something and I went eh, and
- 0:28Speaker 2: then I was like, I can't be right, can't be real.
- 0:31Speaker 2: Of course it wasn't. And then there were a few things.
- 0:34Speaker 2: There were a few strange announcements yesterday. And let's look
- 0:37Speaker 2: at this way. I guess if you're a company that's
- 0:40Speaker 2: trying to market a movie and you're trying to say, hey,
- 0:44Speaker 2: this is going to be the title of the movie,
- 0:46Speaker 2: or this is the new information about the movie, one
- 0:50Speaker 2: of two things. Don't do it on April first, or
- 0:56Speaker 2: you need to understand that people are going to be
- 0:59Speaker 2: analy and critical of all of it as they should
- 1:04Speaker 2: as they should be with anything online. The number of
- 1:07Speaker 2: times I have had someone send me a poster for
- 1:11Speaker 2: a movie that wasn't being made, or have sent me
- 1:14Speaker 2: the trailer for a movie that was clearly not the
- 1:18Speaker 2: trailer for a movie, and then you say, well, this
- 1:22Speaker 2: isn't happening. You're seeing clips of this actor that's played
- 1:27Speaker 2: this role or that's supposedly been cast from other movies
- 1:31Speaker 2: that you maybe don't aren't familiar with, or you don't
- 1:33Speaker 2: you don't know about, and then they've just chopped them
- 1:36Speaker 2: together and said, this is a trailer for you know,
- 1:39Speaker 2: this guy playing you know, Superman or whatever, and it's no,
- 1:43Speaker 2: it's not. And then you throw that in, you know,
- 1:47Speaker 2: on the first of April. People are going to be
- 1:50Speaker 2: they should be extra critical of all of that. We
- 1:54Speaker 2: should be extra critical of everything online all the time.
- 1:57Speaker 2: We should be, but not everybody. He is, all right, Well,
- 2:02Speaker 2: we're here on this Wednesday together, midweek, midweek of spring
- 2:06Speaker 2: break for the kids in I'd say most of the
- 2:11Speaker 2: kids in our area. I know some had spring break
- 2:13Speaker 2: last week. There may be a few next week. My
- 2:17Speaker 2: kids are midway through their spring break as of today.
- 2:20Speaker 2: That's where we're at with it. We got one that's
- 2:23Speaker 2: under the weather though he hasn't felt well, and we're
- 2:27Speaker 2: trying to get him healed up and back on track.
- 2:29Speaker 2: He's very bummed about being sick during spring break. The
- 2:33Speaker 2: blessing in that, of course, well the first blessing that
- 2:36Speaker 2: he doesn't understand. And I don't expect kids fully to
- 2:38Speaker 2: understand it. I was a different breed in that I
- 2:43Speaker 2: did not miss any school when I was a kid,
- 2:47Speaker 2: kindergarten through twelfth grade, I didn't miss a single day
- 2:51Speaker 2: of school. Ever. I went all the time I went sick.
- 2:55Speaker 2: That was back when that was something that people could do.
- 2:59Speaker 2: You could just be determined to go to school and
- 3:03Speaker 2: just go. Chicken pox almost messed me up. And then
- 3:08Speaker 2: I had a very understanding principle my sixth grade year,
- 3:11Speaker 2: back when elementary school still included sixth grade, and she said, look,
- 3:15Speaker 2: he can come sit in my office and do his work,
- 3:18Speaker 2: and I can help him with anything he needs in here.
- 3:22Speaker 2: And so we got through that. And then I got
- 3:24Speaker 2: through a number of years obviously of high school where
- 3:27Speaker 2: there were there were days where I just did not
- 3:29Speaker 2: want to be there. But you go as you're trying
- 3:31Speaker 2: to go every day. And then I did it. I
- 3:33Speaker 2: finished it. My son has no concept of that. Neither
- 3:37Speaker 2: of my boys do, because you know, COVID is part
- 3:40Speaker 2: of that. And then you know, just general, it makes
- 3:44Speaker 2: more sense not to go to school and spread germs around.
- 3:47Speaker 2: We've all become a little bit more sensitive to that.
- 3:51Speaker 2: But I would have been happy to be sick during
- 3:55Speaker 2: spring break because that meant I didn't have to go
- 3:56Speaker 2: to school while I was sick. We didn't have any
- 3:59Speaker 2: plays for spring break. That's the other blessing because we're
- 4:03Speaker 2: doing a trip in the summer to see in laws
- 4:07Speaker 2: in Australia, So we are not doing anything this week.
- 4:12Speaker 2: And it's not so much as spring broke situation as
- 4:14Speaker 2: much as it's spring We were spending our money this summer,
- 4:18Speaker 2: like that's where the focus is, That's where all the
- 4:21Speaker 2: focus is. We're going, it's a big trip and that's
- 4:25Speaker 2: what we're going to be spending our time doing this year.
- 4:27Speaker 2: So or where we're going to be, I should say so,
- 4:32Speaker 2: But we do have lots of friends that are going
- 4:34Speaker 2: all these fun places, and I think it's great to
- 4:36Speaker 2: see that people are traveling again. It's great to see
- 4:39Speaker 2: that people are getting out there and experiencing the world again,
- 4:43Speaker 2: because you know, back to COVID, we just kind of
- 4:47Speaker 2: kept ourselves in a place where you know, we weren't
- 4:52Speaker 2: able to travel, or we were kind of hesitant to
- 4:55Speaker 2: do that, or the money wasn't there. So it's nice
- 4:58Speaker 2: to see that all of that is happening and the
- 5:00Speaker 2: people that are, you know, complaining about anything. With the economy,
- 5:03Speaker 2: a lot of people are traveling. They're either putting it
- 5:06Speaker 2: on credit cards or we are starting to bounce back,
- 5:10Speaker 2: whatever the case may be. So and speaking of COVID,
- 5:14Speaker 2: coming up, we got a basically a story about people
- 5:20Speaker 2: being distracted and the connections to COVID. We'll hit that
- 5:23Speaker 2: coming up after the break. Today, I want to talk
- 5:26Speaker 2: to you about a couple of things. First of all,
- 5:30Speaker 2: this ongoing saga that is deporting some of the what
- 5:37Speaker 2: they call the worst of the worst and gang members,
- 5:41Speaker 2: gang bangers, whatever they call them, that have been deported
- 5:46Speaker 2: out of the country by the Trump administration. And there's
- 5:49Speaker 2: been obviously a lot of a lot of controversy around
- 5:54Speaker 2: this because we do have judges that have tried to
- 5:58Speaker 2: step in and say, we're going to make make sure
- 6:01Speaker 2: that you know, this is as hard as possible in
- 6:03Speaker 2: the Trump administration. In some cases, they absolutely have people
- 6:09Speaker 2: that do deserve due process. Here you got some people
- 6:12Speaker 2: that just came in illegally. They're causing problems. I don't
- 6:15Speaker 2: think there should be any difficulty getting them out of
- 6:18Speaker 2: the country. Why are they here, What are they doing here?
- 6:21Speaker 2: No one invited them, No one asked them to stay.
- 6:25Speaker 2: They're committing crimes, breaking the law, they're wearing gang tattoos.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Yeah scoop them up, get them out of here. But
- 6:31Speaker 2: we have some of these judges that don't want that
- 6:37Speaker 2: to happen. They're doing everything they can to fight it.
- 6:40Speaker 2: And you know, we've just gone through this election special
- 6:46Speaker 2: election in Wisconsin. There was a lot of talk about
- 6:50Speaker 2: Elon Musk supporting a candidate and related to the courts
- 6:56Speaker 2: in Wisconsin, and there were a lot of people complaining,
- 7:00Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, Elon Musk is donating and supporting a
- 7:03Speaker 2: candidate with so much money. So which is worse? Is
- 7:09Speaker 2: it better to be Elon Musk out there in front
- 7:14Speaker 2: of it, right out there on stage, walking around telling everybody,
- 7:21Speaker 2: this is a candidate that I support, this is what
- 7:23Speaker 2: I want, this is what I think we need for
- 7:25Speaker 2: the purposes of continuing our freedoms that we have here
- 7:30Speaker 2: in America, and really putting himself out there and people complaining, oh,
- 7:36Speaker 2: can you believe we have this guy who's donating so
- 7:39Speaker 2: much money to all of this? Can you believe that
- 7:43Speaker 2: this guy would actually do this and he would actually
- 7:47Speaker 2: uh put him put put his money into this and
- 7:51Speaker 2: claim that it's just about democracy, when in reality it's
- 7:56Speaker 2: about you know, tesla plants or whatever in the state.
- 8:01Speaker 2: I would rather have the guy who's standing on the
- 8:03Speaker 2: stage encouraging people to vote for the candidate, rather than
- 8:05Speaker 2: George Soros or his son, who were clearly doing this.
- 8:11Speaker 2: And in many cases some of these judges make in
- 8:14Speaker 2: trouble with Trump last year and this year, or Soros
- 8:20Speaker 2: supported people and behind the scenes. I like it better.
- 8:25Speaker 2: I like it so much better when we know who
- 8:28Speaker 2: they are. I mean, we know who he is, but
- 8:30Speaker 2: there's a lot of denials about oh, he's not really
- 8:32Speaker 2: the boogeyman behind the scenes, and don't say anything negative
- 8:36Speaker 2: about him because you know he's Jewish, not practicing, but
- 8:40Speaker 2: he's Jewish. And the fact that he is Jewish only
- 8:45Speaker 2: comes up when people are saying, you can't talk about
- 8:48Speaker 2: about him, because then it becomes anti Semitism. And it's
- 8:51Speaker 2: a different kind of anti semitism. Apparently, it's the bad
- 8:55Speaker 2: kind versus the kind where you run people off college
- 8:58Speaker 2: campuses and make them scared to show up and take tests.
- 9:02Speaker 2: That's a different kind of anti semity. That's the good kind, apparently,
- 9:06Speaker 2: And the George Soros kind, the boogeyman behind the scenes,
- 9:10Speaker 2: Emperor Palpatine, you know, the phantom menace, Like that's the
- 9:16Speaker 2: that's the bad kind of anti Semitism versus the people
- 9:20Speaker 2: who are Jewish, practicing Jews and you know, with families
- 9:26Speaker 2: in Israel and in some cases impacted by the attack,
- 9:30Speaker 2: the terror attacks in Israel, that's apparently the good kind.
- 9:35Speaker 2: Just so that we're all clear on where all this stands,
- 9:37Speaker 2: So yes, I would take I would take the billionaire
- 9:41Speaker 2: donor standing there on stage, letting us know who he is,
- 9:45Speaker 2: and then allowing people, of course to break the law
- 9:49Speaker 2: and try to terrorize the country, keying and scratching and
- 9:53Speaker 2: blowing up and destroying cars that are made by a
- 9:58Speaker 2: company that he owns. So they used to be considered
- 10:01Speaker 2: good cars, but aren't good cars anymore. They're not good
- 10:04Speaker 2: cars because he owns the company. But back to the
- 10:08Speaker 2: people that have been deported we've been hearing about. There's
- 10:11Speaker 2: a couple of people, specific people, I guess a couple
- 10:15Speaker 2: of American citizens that got taken kind of in this
- 10:19Speaker 2: sweeping mix of people, and that's terrible. I don't think
- 10:23Speaker 2: there's anybody that's saying Hey, great that they've taken an
- 10:27Speaker 2: American away and put them in a prison and all
- 10:30Speaker 2: that should be corrected. And you know, however, they need
- 10:34Speaker 2: to do that once they're able to sort through the mess.
- 10:37Speaker 2: People do get charged with crimes in this country. We
- 10:42Speaker 2: have the best justice system that we could have, and
- 10:48Speaker 2: it's not perfect. Sometimes people are convicted of crimes they
- 10:51Speaker 2: don't commit. Sometimes people walk crimes that they did commit.
- 10:56Speaker 2: It happens, it's just it's part of it. I hate
- 10:59Speaker 2: that we have this situation where there were people who
- 11:02Speaker 2: one or two, however many it is, that were collateral
- 11:04Speaker 2: damage in all of this. It's awful. Nobody likes that.
- 11:08Speaker 2: But let me offer just this point of view on it,
- 11:12Speaker 2: because we're really hearing a lot of that from just
- 11:16Speaker 2: from the left. Oh, this is terrible, and it is.
- 11:21Speaker 2: But here's another perspective on it. Maybe if we didn't
- 11:25Speaker 2: just let people walk across the border for four years,
- 11:29Speaker 2: there wouldn't be as much of a need to get
- 11:32Speaker 2: some of this criminal element out, and then there would
- 11:35Speaker 2: be less chances to accidentally scoop up people who are
- 11:38Speaker 2: supposed to be here. See, by encouraging people to come
- 11:42Speaker 2: in and by just leaving the door open and saying, hey,
- 11:45Speaker 2: come on in and get settled, preferably in a battleground state,
- 11:50Speaker 2: and preferably where someday you can have an impact on
- 11:53Speaker 2: an election by the eighty percent likely that you're going
- 11:56Speaker 2: to become a Democrat voter. Let us get you settled in.
- 11:59Speaker 2: Let us give you place to live, let us give
- 12:01Speaker 2: you some food. Let's put you in a four star hotel.
- 12:04Speaker 2: Let's get you all settled in. Start handing things to
- 12:08Speaker 2: you that you had zero, you know, contributions to, ignoring
- 12:14Speaker 2: the fact that there are other people in different parts
- 12:16Speaker 2: of the country who specifically need money that they did
- 12:20Speaker 2: contribute into the cause. But maybe if we didn't do that,
- 12:26Speaker 2: it would make it much more difficult or much less
- 12:29Speaker 2: likely that people would get swept up and taken out
- 12:31Speaker 2: of the country. Where's the outrage we're so obsessed with.
- 12:36Speaker 2: And yes, it's horrible. No one's defending it. No one's saying, man,
- 12:41Speaker 2: it's a good thing that these people got taken out.
- 12:44Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of people saying, let's get
- 12:46Speaker 2: them back, right, isn't that? I mean, that's primarily what
- 12:51Speaker 2: I've heard. The people who aren't criminals. Now there's some
- 12:54Speaker 2: that they're saying, ah, but they're tattoo that's normally a
- 12:57Speaker 2: gang tattoo. In their case, it didn't mean a gang tattoo.
- 13:01Speaker 2: It just meant that, you know, they love their mom
- 13:04Speaker 2: or whatever it is. So maybe if we did a
- 13:09Speaker 2: better job of not just letting people flood in acknowledging
- 13:15Speaker 2: maybe the fact that letting all those people flood in
- 13:18Speaker 2: was bad and it shouldn't happen and it shouldn't be
- 13:20Speaker 2: allowed to happen again the next time we have a
- 13:22Speaker 2: president who's a Democrat. And here's another, just another thought
- 13:28Speaker 2: on it. The people who were making it as difficult
- 13:32Speaker 2: as possible for ICE to do their job. Maybe if
- 13:37Speaker 2: the American citizens were a little more cooperative with Ice
- 13:42Speaker 2: and helping get the bad criminal element out, they also
- 13:47Speaker 2: might not be accidentally grabbing up the good people. You
- 13:51Speaker 2: see this mindset of we have to do everything we
- 13:55Speaker 2: can to fight this administration because this administration is bad.
- 14:01Speaker 2: It's been the it's been the theme of the week, right,
- 14:03Speaker 2: that's what we've talked about all week. You got these
- 14:05Speaker 2: people that because they don't have a firm grasp of
- 14:09Speaker 2: a moral compass, they don't have some sort of a
- 14:12Speaker 2: creed to live by. Apparently it's just all about anarchy.
- 14:16Speaker 2: It's just all about how how do we defy at
- 14:19Speaker 2: all times. We have to be in this constant state
- 14:22Speaker 2: of revolution. We have to treat everything like it's some
- 14:25Speaker 2: sort of a moral victory as we try to fight
- 14:29Speaker 2: back against the evil Donald Trump because we tried to
- 14:34Speaker 2: help somebody not get arrested that wasn't supposed to be
- 14:38Speaker 2: here in the first place, and Ice is coming to
- 14:41Speaker 2: get them because they're affiliated with a gang or a
- 14:44Speaker 2: terror organization or you know, they're marching around college campuses
- 14:48Speaker 2: trying to recruit more people into terror organizations and probably
- 14:53Speaker 2: collecting a paycheck to do it. And I've seen a
- 14:57Speaker 2: number of people go Yep, free speech is now in
- 15:00Speaker 2: America because immigrants here on a student visa aren't allowed
- 15:05Speaker 2: to protest and stand up against the American government that
- 15:10Speaker 2: gave them a student visa. Traveling doesn't make sense, It
- 15:16Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense. What are we doing? What are
- 15:19Speaker 2: we doing? How can we argue that you're here on
- 15:22Speaker 2: a visa, you don't have all the same rights as
- 15:25Speaker 2: an American citizen. Sure, your rights shouldn't be violated, but
- 15:31Speaker 2: you shouldn't put yourself in a position where you're throwing
- 15:34Speaker 2: up a flag for the folks at the State Department
- 15:37Speaker 2: to say, I'm sorry, you're supporting what terror group while
- 15:41Speaker 2: we allow you to be here and get an education
- 15:44Speaker 2: and you're trying to recruit others to join terror groups. Yeah,
- 15:48Speaker 2: you're gonna go. You're gonna go, assuming of course, that
- 15:53Speaker 2: these George Soros from the Shadows, strategically placed judges and
- 16:00Speaker 2: in different areas of the country aren't getting in the way,
- 16:05Speaker 2: because it's much better to be the guy in the
- 16:07Speaker 2: shadows than the guys standing on stage and supporting a
- 16:12Speaker 2: candidate out loud. Today's show brought to you by Columbus
- 16:15Speaker 2: State Universities Coca Cola Space Science Center, inspiring and educating
- 16:20Speaker 2: the youth and future STEM leaders and STEM career holders
- 16:26Speaker 2: that really of all ages. I mean, they do it
- 16:29Speaker 2: for school age kids as school age kids visit the
- 16:32Speaker 2: Coca Cola Space Science Center, but they also do it
- 16:34Speaker 2: through their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics,
- 16:40Speaker 2: and the careers in space and STEM fields are booming
- 16:44Speaker 2: right now, and you can learn more about maybe getting
- 16:48Speaker 2: your degree on their website CCSSC dot org. While you're there.
- 16:55Speaker 2: Also check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got
- 16:58Speaker 2: this incredible collaboration that they do with the Schwobe School
- 17:03Speaker 2: of Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome.
- 17:06Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 17:11Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 17:13Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 17:17Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
- 17:22Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
- 17:26Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center and the new season of Music
- 17:29Speaker 2: under the Dome. Check out upcoming dates for the shows,
- 17:34Speaker 2: and also check out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up.
- 17:37Speaker 2: Where you can get outside. Sometimes you do it at
- 17:40Speaker 2: the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere
- 17:44Speaker 2: outside the city lights you don't want any light interference,
- 17:46Speaker 2: and you can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night
- 17:49Speaker 2: events also on their website. It's CCSSC dot org. As
- 17:53Speaker 2: Sean Cruisin says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org. I
- 17:58Speaker 2: just remind you that it stands for or Coca Cola
- 18:01Speaker 2: Space Science Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to
- 18:06Speaker 2: you by Overhead Door Company of Columbus for all of
- 18:09Speaker 2: your garage door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have
- 18:15Speaker 2: regular maintenance that it's time for. It's always good to
- 18:18Speaker 2: get maintenance on anything that has parts that move and
- 18:22Speaker 2: have electronics. The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus
- 18:26Speaker 2: can take care of square and that away for you,
- 18:28Speaker 2: and while they're there, you can always ask them questions
- 18:31Speaker 2: about some of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to
- 18:33Speaker 2: make to your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't
- 18:37Speaker 2: quite what you want it to be and you need
- 18:39Speaker 2: some repair work done to the outside door. Maybe you
- 18:42Speaker 2: need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making
- 18:46Speaker 2: a noise when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe
- 18:49Speaker 2: it's some sort of installation issue that you've got With
- 18:52Speaker 2: colder or warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in and
- 18:55Speaker 2: it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd
- 18:58Speaker 2: like to add a screen door to your garage door
- 19:01Speaker 2: system that you can put down and you can use
- 19:03Speaker 2: your garage space as a sort of outdoor but indoor.
- 19:08Speaker 2: You know, if you like to work on your own
- 19:10Speaker 2: cars in there, or maybe you just want a little
- 19:12Speaker 2: man cavid. You'd like to be able to open the
- 19:14Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in. They
- 19:17Speaker 2: can do that for you as well, and again they
- 19:19Speaker 2: do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought
- 19:22Speaker 2: of having your car trapped inside your garage and your
- 19:25Speaker 2: garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help,
- 19:28Speaker 2: And they do those as well. Seven oh six thy
- 19:32Speaker 2: five eight forty five hundred seven oh six three five
- 19:34Speaker 2: eight forty five hundred O dccolumbus dot com more West
- 19:39Speaker 2: Carol Morning Show right after the break.
- 19:50Speaker 1: Well.
- 19:50Speaker 2: A new survey says that the average American spends two
- 19:54Speaker 2: hours and eighteen minutes every day wrestling with anxious thoughts.
- 20:02Speaker 2: Should I be concerned them? I have more than that,
- 20:05Speaker 2: like you should? This man? That really makes me feel anxious.
- 20:10Speaker 2: It's especially true for young adults. Sixty percent of gen
- 20:13Speaker 2: Z and millennial respondents said that they are always anxious,
- 20:16Speaker 2: compared to thirty eight percent of older generations. In fact,
- 20:20Speaker 2: young people worry so much than one in ten are
- 20:22Speaker 2: actually scheduling worry time into their daily routines. Now see, look,
- 20:28Speaker 2: I have anxiety. I don't think I have two hours
- 20:32Speaker 2: and eighteen minutes worth of it daily. I'm sure I've
- 20:37Speaker 2: had those days. But to be able to schedule it
- 20:42Speaker 2: into your daily routine that says something different to me.
- 20:49Speaker 2: I mean, most of the things that I would have
- 20:50Speaker 2: anxiety about are about maybe some of the things I
- 20:53Speaker 2: did not properly schedule into my routine in the first place.
- 20:56Speaker 2: So the fact that you have the energy and the
- 20:59Speaker 2: time to schedule your worry time that says something. People's
- 21:04Speaker 2: biggest worries or money tasks and to do lists. See
- 21:08Speaker 2: there you go, health concerns, sleep issues, politics, parents worry
- 21:15Speaker 2: about the world their kids will inherit and climate change
- 21:19Speaker 2: is a big stressor for some. So dating about to
- 21:25Speaker 2: get loud. The latest dating trend is loud looking. It's
- 21:29Speaker 2: all about people being bold and clear about what they
- 21:31Speaker 2: want in their dating profile. So vague hints and mysterious
- 21:36Speaker 2: quotes is out. The idea is to be loud about
- 21:41Speaker 2: what it is that you want, whether it's a long
- 21:43Speaker 2: term relationship or a casual fling. Maybe you know you
- 21:49Speaker 2: want to just put up there, Hey I'm looking for
- 21:51Speaker 2: a wife right away. And lots of kids that used
- 21:54Speaker 2: to be a no no. But now apparently for the
- 21:57Speaker 2: people that are wanting to be a wife with a
- 21:59Speaker 2: bunch of kids, if they see that in a profile,
- 22:02Speaker 2: they're not necessarily going to be so concerned about it.
- 22:07Speaker 2: I guess living in a neighborhood requires a lot of
- 22:11Speaker 2: patients with folks living all around you, and sometimes if
- 22:16Speaker 2: you're in one of those neighborhoods where the houses are
- 22:18Speaker 2: almost touching, that's not necessarily fun. Homenome dot com recently
- 22:28Speaker 2: surveyed Americans about their biggest pet peeves with their neighbors,
- 22:32Speaker 2: and according to their survey, garbage is the number one
- 22:36Speaker 2: issue for people living next to someone or at least
- 22:41Speaker 2: maybe the neighborhood in general. Landscaping and law and care
- 22:44Speaker 2: was number two on the list. General home maintenance, noise
- 22:48Speaker 2: and pets round out the top five for the biggest
- 22:53Speaker 2: concerns when it comes to the neighbors. Movie theaters are
- 22:58Speaker 2: still struggling and trying to get audiences back in the theaters.
- 23:03Speaker 2: Here's an idea. If you're going to remake a classic
- 23:08Speaker 2: in live action, don't destroy it as you're making it
- 23:12Speaker 2: and hire someone who's going to ruin the possibility of
- 23:15Speaker 2: anybody wanting to come see it. That's just one suggestion.
- 23:19Speaker 2: There's others. In hopes of shaking things up and getting
- 23:21Speaker 2: people back into theaters, the industry is considering some brand new,
- 23:25Speaker 2: sometimes controversial ideas. They say, in some cases, I'm not
- 23:32Speaker 2: saying in any of the major theater chains, but apparently
- 23:36Speaker 2: there are some theaters around the country thinking maybe they
- 23:40Speaker 2: could be a marijuana theater where you can smoke pot
- 23:44Speaker 2: and watch movies. They say. Some people offering cell phone
- 23:48Speaker 2: friendly screenings. Some theaters are considering sing along sessions and
- 23:54Speaker 2: interactive experiences. Of course, this isn't for everybody, but it
- 23:58Speaker 2: could generate an interest and give theaters a bit of
- 24:02Speaker 2: a much needed boost. I think the contact high from
- 24:06Speaker 2: a lot of people around town. In general, you don't
- 24:09Speaker 2: really need to smoke in the theater if you just
- 24:12Speaker 2: sit next to someone and breathe in whatever is in
- 24:15Speaker 2: their clothes and in their skin and pores. But I
- 24:18Speaker 2: think the idea of the singalongs might be good. Remember
- 24:23Speaker 2: they were telling people not to sing along with the
- 24:26Speaker 2: movie Wicked when it came out. According to a new study,
- 24:29Speaker 2: people are getting less smart as time goes on, and
- 24:34Speaker 2: researchers found that people across different age groups are struggling
- 24:38Speaker 2: with concentration, reasoning, and problem solving. It seems that the
- 24:41Speaker 2: trend has been around since the mid twenty tens, but
- 24:44Speaker 2: the problem accelerated during COVID nineteen when schools struggled to
- 24:50Speaker 2: deal with the disruption. Sounds completely accurate. I don't have
- 24:55Speaker 2: any issues with that as a concept. I'm sure CO
- 25:00Speaker 2: would set us back a lot. I know it set
- 25:02Speaker 2: us back a lot for schools just with education and
- 25:06Speaker 2: you know, eye contact and all those sorts of things
- 25:08Speaker 2: that we were already maybe not doing great with. And
- 25:11Speaker 2: then you throw in the fact that you know it's
- 25:15Speaker 2: causing people to not have the ability to concentrate, and
- 25:18Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe look at those cell phones some
- 25:21Speaker 2: of those screens that may have something to do with
- 25:23Speaker 2: it as well. That'll do it for this Wednesday edition
- 25:25Speaker 2: of the show. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons. Thank
- 25:28Speaker 2: you for listening. I'll catch you back here tomorrow morning.
