Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
0:05
Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
0:08
Speaker 2: Monday morning, sixteenth day of September. I'm Wes. Thanks for
0:13
Speaker 2: joining me halfway through the month on the downhill slide
0:18
Speaker 2: for September, it's been a wet middle of the month.
0:23
Speaker 2: Eventually it's gonna stop with the constant rain. Eventually. It's
0:29
Speaker 2: been a lot of it, man, a lot of rain.
0:32
Speaker 2: Don't do a lot of weather talk here, but obviously
0:34
Speaker 2: we had some severe weather mainly to the west of us,
0:38
Speaker 2: and it's pushed a lot of this stuff our way.
0:40
Speaker 2: But we have needed this. We've been in a drought
0:44
Speaker 2: situation in the Chattahooche Valley. We've needed this rain. So
0:47
Speaker 2: at least we got that going for us here midway
0:51
Speaker 2: through September. And the main reason I mention it is
0:53
Speaker 2: because it's actually felt like fall. And that's wonderful, right,
0:58
Speaker 2: I always complain we just don't get an enough of
1:01
Speaker 2: the mid seasons, right, we get plenty of summer. I
1:06
Speaker 2: feel like winter feels like it's longer than it really is.
1:11
Speaker 2: Those of us who enjoy winter, that being really a
1:16
Speaker 2: fall would last for a full three months. That would
1:18
Speaker 2: be my favorite season. But I just because I hate mosquitoes,
1:24
Speaker 2: and I hate the whole false fall thing so much
1:26
Speaker 2: that it makes me lean more towards winter here in
1:30
Speaker 2: the southeast. Right, for folks that are, you know, in
1:36
Speaker 2: like harsh winter climate areas, I would imagine winter would
1:39
Speaker 2: get old very quickly. But for me, it's my preferred season.
1:44
Speaker 2: So anyway, it's felt like we've kind of had, you know,
1:49
Speaker 2: some fall like weather. Maybe we will get a true
1:52
Speaker 2: extended amount of time for the fall. I'm not looking
1:55
Speaker 2: forward to an immediate change back to hot, but I
1:59
Speaker 2: feel like, you know, we're kind of maybe false falling.
2:02
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know, we've already had one
2:04
Speaker 2: of those. All right, Well, let's get into some of
2:07
Speaker 2: the meat of the day. I had planned to talk
2:10
Speaker 2: about something a little different today, but obviously yesterday's news
2:15
Speaker 2: has changed things a bit, as we have now had
2:19
Speaker 2: a apparently, right, you have to go through all of
2:23
Speaker 2: it because the person was actually arrested and now we're
2:27
Speaker 2: in an alleged situation. And when you get into those
2:31
Speaker 2: technical legal terms, you have to say alleged because this
2:35
Speaker 2: was an alleged attempt on the life of former President
2:39
Speaker 2: Trump now second time, and I haven't seen any sort
2:44
Speaker 2: of admission of guilt or anything. If that comes, then
2:47
Speaker 2: you can take that away. And if there's an actual conviction,
2:51
Speaker 2: you can take that away. But until then you have
2:54
Speaker 2: to kind of go with the alleged, and that's where
2:58
Speaker 2: things apparently are. So here's the deal. This was in Florida,
3:04
Speaker 2: and this was outside of Trump's golf course. This was
3:09
Speaker 2: someone who apparently allegedly was sort of waiting in the
3:13
Speaker 2: bushes at a fenced area and had a I guess
3:16
Speaker 2: they said it was an AK forty seven. They ought
3:19
Speaker 2: to ban those. Those should not be legal. Oh wait,
3:22
Speaker 2: they're not. But had I guess an AK forty seven
3:27
Speaker 2: and he was. I'm surprised they haven't been calling him
3:29
Speaker 2: an ar style AK forty seven because they like to
3:33
Speaker 2: say that they really are going after those ar quote
3:38
Speaker 2: unquote assault rifle weapons, right, even though that's not what ArmaLite.
3:42
Speaker 2: This doesn't stand for assault rifle anyway. So somebody with
3:46
Speaker 2: an AK forty seven and some sort of a metal barrier,
3:51
Speaker 2: they are attached to the fence, prepared to shield bullets
3:56
Speaker 2: in case shots were sent in their direction from maybe
4:01
Speaker 2: the Secret Service. There was also a GoPro camera that
4:07
Speaker 2: was set up apparently to record what was happening for posterity.
4:11
Speaker 2: I suppose, I don't know. So here's here's what you know.
4:16
Speaker 2: Here's what we know about the and I guess Secret
4:19
Speaker 2: Service fired shots at him when they saw him, and
4:23
Speaker 2: that's when he ran, and then they were able to
4:25
Speaker 2: apprehend him. Somebody that does have a criminal record, somebody
4:33
Speaker 2: who has apparently a lengthy criminal record in North Carolina,
4:39
Speaker 2: and is I guess a staunch Democrat, a Democrat supporter,
4:45
Speaker 2: according to New York Posts yesterday, said this, and he
4:50
Speaker 2: apparently has been living in Hawaii. At some point he
4:53
Speaker 2: was living in North Carolina, now living in Hawaii, and
4:57
Speaker 2: now I guess, you know, long term residence of the
5:00
Speaker 2: state of Florida on the taxpayer dime. So his name
5:05
Speaker 2: Ryan Wesley Ruth spelled r U t h, a fifty
5:11
Speaker 2: eight year old and I guess recently on X on
5:15
Speaker 2: the social media platform X in April saying in all
5:23
Speaker 2: quotes democracy, I'm sorry in all caps and then go
5:28
Speaker 2: to non caps after the word democracy in all caps
5:31
Speaker 2: is on the ballot and we cannot lose. Going after
5:36
Speaker 2: former President Trump on social media donated to Democrat causes,
5:41
Speaker 2: a supporter of Democrats, and so here's you know he
5:51
Speaker 2: wants to I guess. He also said that basically Biden
5:58
Speaker 2: while running for president. This was in April twenty second
6:01
Speaker 2: on X He said that Biden needed to keep America
6:08
Speaker 2: democratic and free. He said Trump wants to make American
6:12
Speaker 2: slaves against master. This is another quote that's attributed to him.
6:18
Speaker 2: We cannot afford to fail. The world is counting on
6:21
Speaker 2: us to show the way he says he was in anyway,
6:30
Speaker 2: so that's a little bit about him in his social
6:32
Speaker 2: media account. I was looking for a few more good
6:34
Speaker 2: quotes from him. But we know that Joe Biden and
6:39
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris have been echoing this sentiment about how democracy
6:45
Speaker 2: is on the ballot. We're fighting for our democracy. So
6:50
Speaker 2: let's let's talk about rhetoric, because that's really what this
6:55
Speaker 2: is about. And keep in mind, as recently as the debate,
7:02
Speaker 2: we had Kamala Harris and the ABC moderators who did
7:07
Speaker 2: a great job for the Harris campaign in moderating that
7:12
Speaker 2: can be in quotes and all caps. They did a
7:16
Speaker 2: good job of talking about rhetoric surrounding a couple of issues.
7:21
Speaker 2: But around January sixth, and this has been one of
7:25
Speaker 2: those things that since the January sixth, whatever you want
7:32
Speaker 2: to call it. Insurrection was a word that they used
7:36
Speaker 2: because they were looking for specific verbiage that could be
7:39
Speaker 2: used from a legal standpoint. They took their time in
7:43
Speaker 2: coming up with the right word of choice for how
7:46
Speaker 2: to declare that particular incident that happened at the Capitol. So,
7:52
Speaker 2: but that's not the word you know, insurrection to me,
7:56
Speaker 2: I would think, And if we're really going to talk
7:58
Speaker 2: about what would qualify as an insurrection would be there
8:02
Speaker 2: were incidents where people tried to get into the White
8:04
Speaker 2: House while Trump was there with the intentions of dragging
8:08
Speaker 2: him out onto the lawn to kill him. Okay, that
8:11
Speaker 2: to me would qualify as an insurrection. Trying to kill
8:13
Speaker 2: a sitting president of the United States. That's more in
8:17
Speaker 2: the lines because you don't like him, because you don't
8:19
Speaker 2: like his policies. Remember when they were outside the White
8:23
Speaker 2: House and the Trump team ultimately cleared away for him
8:30
Speaker 2: to go to the nearby church and people were upset, Oh,
8:35
Speaker 2: they shouldn't have used tear gas or whatever they used
8:37
Speaker 2: to clear the way, and people were upset. That whole
8:40
Speaker 2: incident there was surrounding an attempted takeover of the US government.
8:47
Speaker 2: People seem to forget that we've had a lot of
8:50
Speaker 2: terroristic riots and things that have happened in the streets,
8:54
Speaker 2: takeovers in cities, takeovers of other federal buildings in cities
8:58
Speaker 2: like Seattle, talk of insurrection there. But anyway, that's another discussion,
9:03
Speaker 2: And if you're listening here, you're probably not on the
9:05
Speaker 2: insurrection team concerning January sixth. But the verbiage from the
9:10
Speaker 2: debate about January six was asking Trump, based on things
9:13
Speaker 2: that he said, would he have done anything differently. Now,
9:19
Speaker 2: it does not appear at this stage that we're going
9:22
Speaker 2: to get another debate. Trump has now done two debates,
9:25
Speaker 2: would have done one with Fox, Harris didn't want to
9:28
Speaker 2: do the one on Fox, so he did it, you know, solo.
9:33
Speaker 2: He says that's enough. She wants to do another debate
9:36
Speaker 2: because they feel like it would only benefit her to
9:39
Speaker 2: do more debates. You know, when you don't actually have
9:43
Speaker 2: to answer the questions, it's pretty easy to do a
9:47
Speaker 2: debate when you have assistance right out in the open.
9:52
Speaker 2: It was pretty clear anybody watching saw that there was
9:55
Speaker 2: assistance being given by the moderators. It's not difficult to
9:59
Speaker 2: do a debate that takes the challenge away, that takes
10:04
Speaker 2: the difficulty level away. It just does. So of course
10:08
Speaker 2: she would want to do another one, and know she's
10:09
Speaker 2: not going to want to do one with moderators like
10:12
Speaker 2: Fox that are going to, you know, actually hold both
10:14
Speaker 2: sides to the fire. But the questions to Trump were,
10:18
Speaker 2: you know, based on things that you said, would you
10:20
Speaker 2: have said things differently? And there has been a long
10:23
Speaker 2: running attempt at trying to take every word that he
10:27
Speaker 2: said during that time period and say that his words
10:31
Speaker 2: are what caused people to go into the Capitol and
10:35
Speaker 2: you know, sit in Nancy Pelosi's desk and all those
10:38
Speaker 2: sorts of things force their way in some cases they
10:41
Speaker 2: were welcomed in, in some cases force their way in.
10:46
Speaker 2: So the questions about accountability, and he's been asked repeatedly,
10:50
Speaker 2: you know, to take accountability for what happened on January sixth,
10:54
Speaker 2: and to take ownership of it based on his verbiage.
10:57
Speaker 2: So I would love to think we could get a
10:59
Speaker 2: point where if Kamala Harris ever does a press conference,
11:03
Speaker 2: ever stops ducking questions, ever stops ducking the American people
11:07
Speaker 2: who have a right to really know what she stands for,
11:09
Speaker 2: who really have a right to have her answer questions
11:14
Speaker 2: does she feel like she should have done things differently?
11:19
Speaker 2: Because now we have had two attempts on the life
11:24
Speaker 2: of a former president who is the Republican candidate for president,
11:30
Speaker 2: and one case he was shot in the ear. He
11:33
Speaker 2: was a half an inch away from being, you know,
11:36
Speaker 2: assassinated on live TV. We don't really know a lot
11:43
Speaker 2: about the motivations from that assassin or attempted assassin would
11:47
Speaker 2: be assassin because you know, he was killed, he was
11:50
Speaker 2: taken out, which was the right thing to do, but
11:54
Speaker 2: there's not a whole lot of information about why he
11:57
Speaker 2: did it right, There's a lot of you know, things
12:00
Speaker 2: have popped up that you don't have a lot of
12:02
Speaker 2: substance to them, but we don't really understand why. Now
12:07
Speaker 2: this go around, we have a little bit more information
12:11
Speaker 2: about a background for someone and we know if he
12:15
Speaker 2: is repeating this rhetoric about we have to save democracy,
12:18
Speaker 2: we are fighting for our democracy is verbage straight from
12:23
Speaker 2: let's see go back to August twenty ninth, just a
12:26
Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago in Savannah, Georgia, Harris said we
12:31
Speaker 2: are fighting for our democracy. In this alleged attempted assassin
12:40
Speaker 2: Ryan Wesley Ruth using the same sort of language. Democracy
12:45
Speaker 2: is on the ballot and we cannot lose. Let me
12:48
Speaker 2: ask you this, If you believe that our country is
12:54
Speaker 2: in jeopardy at its core, at its foundation, the democratic
12:59
Speaker 2: nature of our country, if you believe that it is
13:04
Speaker 2: in danger, in jeopardy, isn't it possible for you to
13:09
Speaker 2: get to a point in your mind where you think, Wow,
13:12
Speaker 2: Donald Trump is going to take away our democracy. He's
13:14
Speaker 2: going to end this country that I love. The only
13:18
Speaker 2: real way to make sure that doesn't happen is to
13:20
Speaker 2: take him out. That's not a drastic leap. That's a
13:24
Speaker 2: much closer leap, right from point A to point B.
13:30
Speaker 2: Then for Trump to say I'll meet you at the Capitol,
13:35
Speaker 2: and you know, to go and to give a speech
13:37
Speaker 2: at the capitol, and for people to show up at
13:39
Speaker 2: the Capitol, and then it's a bigger leap. That's a
13:43
Speaker 2: to B. It's a much bigger leap. It's a to
13:48
Speaker 2: Z to say that what he was really trying to
13:50
Speaker 2: say is go inside and rip the place apart. But
13:54
Speaker 2: this is a very specific, almost call to action. Isn't
13:58
Speaker 2: it on the left to say democracy is on the
14:01
Speaker 2: ballot and you know, we're fighting for our democracy now.
14:06
Speaker 2: They didn't specifically say, hey, time for you to take
14:10
Speaker 2: out the president. But when you start calling him things
14:13
Speaker 2: like a Nazi and calling him Hitler and calling him,
14:16
Speaker 2: you know, the worst person to ever live, and he's
14:18
Speaker 2: a danger, he's a threat. All these things. I mean,
14:25
Speaker 2: the allegations against Trump in the past have then that
14:28
Speaker 2: he's been trying to send these coded messages out to
14:32
Speaker 2: these right wing militias. Looking at the pictures of this
14:37
Speaker 2: alleged attempted assassin from yesterday, I mean he looks like
14:42
Speaker 2: a classic kind of militia guy. I mean, just looking
14:46
Speaker 2: at the pictures from his social media, this isn't a
14:51
Speaker 2: giant leap so and again alleged, suspected, whatever the terminology is,
14:59
Speaker 2: you got to say to keep it legal. But I mean,
15:02
Speaker 2: looking at this photo and I assume this is from
15:04
Speaker 2: his social media, you know, he's in red white and blue,
15:08
Speaker 2: red white and blue shirt, red white and blue, some
15:11
Speaker 2: sort of a neck like a collar thing that he's
15:13
Speaker 2: got on, possibly a mask something to go over his head.
15:16
Speaker 2: He's wearing a you know, military brown sort of colored
15:21
Speaker 2: vest looks like a military style vest with a selfie
15:24
Speaker 2: that he took. You know, this is the very people
15:30
Speaker 2: that they have said that you know, Trump is supposedly
15:35
Speaker 2: talking to. But on the right, this would be someone
15:39
Speaker 2: on the left. It's silly and it's ignorant, and it's
15:43
Speaker 2: shortsighted of us to think that there aren't people like
15:45
Speaker 2: this on the left as well. That's one of the
15:47
Speaker 2: lessons we have to take from this too, is that
15:49
Speaker 2: our words do matter, and what we say does matter.
15:52
Speaker 2: Let me also ask this because this kind of ties
15:54
Speaker 2: in a little bit more to what I was thinking
15:56
Speaker 2: of talking about today. But let's just for a minute.
16:00
Speaker 2: It jump over to something I noticed on social media,
16:04
Speaker 2: and it's just it's always interesting to me when these
16:09
Speaker 2: sort of things pop up. I noticed a post that
16:13
Speaker 2: someone made someone that I know, and it basically, this
16:18
Speaker 2: is a shared comment from somewhere else on social media.
16:22
Speaker 2: I don't know if this is from X, I don't
16:24
Speaker 2: know what the format is, possibly Instagram. And the person's
16:30
Speaker 2: name is blithe Barno. That's not the person I know.
16:34
Speaker 2: That's the person who posted originally, and it says here's
16:37
Speaker 2: the deal in they live in Ohio. For context, here's
16:42
Speaker 2: the deal. If you shared a meme about eating pets,
16:45
Speaker 2: you can now go ahead and donate to the Haitian
16:48
Speaker 2: Community Help and Support Center in Springfield, Ohio. Apologies begin
16:51
Speaker 2: at five dollars. Laughter is not the same thing as solidarity.
16:56
Speaker 2: The community is under real threat. Do better, my friends ends,
17:00
Speaker 2: and then there's a PayPal address for it. Uh, and
17:03
Speaker 2: it says it's a photo. It says you can make
17:08
Speaker 2: the donation, and at the bottom where it says what's
17:12
Speaker 2: this for, it says apologies for laughing instead of acting
17:16
Speaker 2: while you are under attack. So and a few people
17:23
Speaker 2: commenting in this do we know this is actually going
17:26
Speaker 2: to the group? Where's this money going if you donate
17:28
Speaker 2: it to the PayPal which is also a great question.
17:32
Speaker 2: So this is sort of where things are now. This
17:35
Speaker 2: is saying that words matter, and of course this is
17:40
Speaker 2: referencing the social media and the news new very weak,
17:46
Speaker 2: not properly sourced news agencies. I guess that we're posting
17:51
Speaker 2: that there were Haitian immigrants that were eating pets. I
17:55
Speaker 2: don't even know where we are on that. It wasn't
17:58
Speaker 2: even a story that to me when it came up
18:01
Speaker 2: in the debate. What are they talking about in this debate?
18:04
Speaker 2: Why is this something that's being talked about. This is
18:09
Speaker 2: such a random news story. But again, this is Trump
18:13
Speaker 2: getting attention on Trump is what he's doing. But anyway,
18:16
Speaker 2: he did that, he talked about that in the debate,
18:19
Speaker 2: and then that's of course led to people saying, well,
18:21
Speaker 2: it's a joke. Ha haa haa, they shouldn't have done it.
18:25
Speaker 2: Some people saying you can't eat pets, some people saying
18:27
Speaker 2: they didn't really eat pets, some people making jokes about
18:29
Speaker 2: the pet. It's like the cat, you know, motherless cat
18:34
Speaker 2: lady thing. It's such a specific, like we have to
18:37
Speaker 2: find these things that we're going to just harp on
18:40
Speaker 2: over and over and over again, as if doing that
18:44
Speaker 2: is going to make anything any better at all. Focusing
18:47
Speaker 2: on Taylor Swift and who she's endorsed, who cares? Again,
18:52
Speaker 2: Trump being Trump. Just a little while before someone peeked
18:56
Speaker 2: at him, or tried to peek at him through a
18:58
Speaker 2: fence line and possibly take a shot at him, he
19:02
Speaker 2: had gone on truth social and said that he hates
19:05
Speaker 2: Taylor Swift. I mean, this is one of those things
19:08
Speaker 2: that Trump where you go, look, I know, where I'm voting.
19:13
Speaker 2: I wish that he would stop that stuff. Who cares?
19:15
Speaker 2: Why is he giving Taylor Swift the attention? Why is
19:18
Speaker 2: he doing it? I do think that there's maybe an
19:21
Speaker 2: attempt at trying to push her a little bit more
19:24
Speaker 2: in for Harris, because I think he thinks that it's
19:28
Speaker 2: going to be bad for Harris. It does sort of
19:31
Speaker 2: make some of the people like me that assumed that
19:34
Speaker 2: she was going to become a bigger part of this campaign,
19:37
Speaker 2: makes us right, more so right than we were once
19:40
Speaker 2: she decided to get involved in this campaign, which of
19:43
Speaker 2: course she did finally decide to do, but anyway, not
19:47
Speaker 2: really in the campaign, but she's gotten pretty active on
19:51
Speaker 2: supporting Harris and trying to get trying to rally all
19:54
Speaker 2: her young swifties. It's amazing, isn't it. I don't understand fully,
20:02
Speaker 2: Like I have some musicians that I'm a fan of
20:07
Speaker 2: that you know, people have told me, well, surely if
20:11
Speaker 2: you like this band or this singer, that must mean
20:14
Speaker 2: you vote the way that they encourage you to vote.
20:16
Speaker 2: And I go, no, not at all, not not even
20:20
Speaker 2: a little bit. That doesn't you know, if I if
20:22
Speaker 2: I had to vote based on what every actor that
20:27
Speaker 2: I like it would every director or producer, and I
20:33
Speaker 2: suppose in some small way we do when we pay
20:37
Speaker 2: to watch their movies, when we pay to support their project,
20:41
Speaker 2: when we buy their albums, in a way we kind
20:43
Speaker 2: of are, aren't we We're casting some sort of a
20:46
Speaker 2: vote for a candidate that maybe we wouldn't have given
20:49
Speaker 2: money to begin with, because you know, that's what happens people.
20:54
Speaker 2: You know, you you spend money on a movie ticket
20:58
Speaker 2: and a portion of that is a eventually going to
21:01
Speaker 2: go to you know, going to a candidate that you
21:06
Speaker 2: may or may not support, And I don't know that
21:09
Speaker 2: people really stop and think about that. I remember at
21:11
Speaker 2: one point that was being discussed and people going, that's stupid,
21:14
Speaker 2: that's not what happens. That's exactly what happens. And the
21:17
Speaker 2: bigger we build them up, bigger we build up someone
21:20
Speaker 2: like Taylor Swift, the more that they have this platform
21:24
Speaker 2: that they can talk about. Justin Timberlake kind of given
21:29
Speaker 2: that court required apology, that wasn't really an apology to
21:33
Speaker 2: basically say, you know, make sure to you know, if
21:37
Speaker 2: you have a drink, use a cab or an uber
21:40
Speaker 2: or get a friend to give you a ride so
21:44
Speaker 2: it's the bigger the platform, of course that they're given,
21:49
Speaker 2: then the more people that they're able to reach. And
21:53
Speaker 2: that's ultimately what's happened with Taylor Swift. People giving her
21:59
Speaker 2: ridiculous amount some money to go see her in concert,
22:03
Speaker 2: and then you know, kind of being shocked, Oh my gosh,
22:07
Speaker 2: she's going to turn her platform in a way to
22:09
Speaker 2: try to support a candidate for president. Can you believe it?
22:13
Speaker 2: Shock horror that this would happen, But of course it happens.
22:17
Speaker 2: She's supported other candidates in the past. Words matter. I
22:21
Speaker 2: don't know that Taylor Swift's words will matter when it
22:24
Speaker 2: comes to the election, but I suppose we'll see. Today's
22:26

23:25
Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
23:29
Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens

Speaker 2: Space Science Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to
24:19
Speaker 2: you by Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of
24:21
Speaker 2: your garage door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have
24:27
Speaker 2: regular maintenance that it's time for. It's always good to
24:31
Speaker 2: get maintenance on anything that has parts that move and
24:34
Speaker 2: have electronics. The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus
24:39
Speaker 2: can take care of squaring that away for you, and
24:41
Speaker 2: while they're there, you can always ask them questions about
24:44
Speaker 2: some of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make
24:46
Speaker 2: to your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite
24:50
Speaker 2: what you want it to be and you need some
24:52
Speaker 2: repair work done to the outside door. Maybe you need
24:54
Speaker 2: a brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a
24:58
Speaker 2: noise when your garage doors or opens and closes. Maybe
25:02
Speaker 2: it's some sort of insulation issue that you've got with
25:04
Speaker 2: colder or warmer weather. Sometimes that stuff gets in and
25:08
Speaker 2: it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd
25:11
Speaker 2: like to add a screen door to your garage door
25:14
Speaker 2: system that you can put down and you can use
25:16
Speaker 2: your garage space as a sort of outdoor but indoor.
25:21
Speaker 2: You know, if you like to work on your own
25:22
Speaker 2: cars in there, or maybe you just want a little
25:25
Speaker 2: man cavid, you'd like to be able to open the
25:27
Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in. They
25:30
Speaker 2: can do that for you as well, And again they
25:32
Speaker 2: do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought
25:35
Speaker 2: of having your car trapped inside your garage and your
25:38
Speaker 2: garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help,
25:41
Speaker 2: And they do those as well. Seven oh sixty five

25:52
Speaker 2: Morning Show. Right after the break well, what's better than
26:04
Speaker 2: coffee and bagel for breakfast? Well, specifically with cream cheese.
26:10
Speaker 2: I guess coffee Mate thinks that a bagel and cream
26:13
Speaker 2: cheese in your coffee would be better. The company releasing
26:17
Speaker 2: a very limited edition Bagel and cream Cheese flavored creamer, which,
26:22
Speaker 2: according to coffee Mate, contains notes reflecting cream cheese, sweetened
26:26
Speaker 2: condensed milk, and a slightly savory hint of bagel in
26:30
Speaker 2: every sip. If you're interested, you got to act fast,
26:33
Speaker 2: because They're only available online, first come, first served basis,
26:37
Speaker 2: and basically your next two options are September nineteenth and
26:43
Speaker 2: September thirtieth at noon Friday the thirteenth. You missed it,
26:48
Speaker 2: it was unlucky if you got it, and it was lucky, well, hey,
26:52
Speaker 2: how about it? You know, the luck if you missed it,
26:56
Speaker 2: or the luck if you got it. Either way, it
27:01
Speaker 2: certainly was luck. Right forget bridle and baby showers. Gen
27:04
Speaker 2: z and millennial women are throwing themselves success showers to
27:08
Speaker 2: celebrate new jobs, promotions, and career milestones. It's a party
27:13
Speaker 2: similar to bridal showers or baby showers, but celebrates personal
27:16
Speaker 2: and professional successes that you know, a group of friends
27:20
Speaker 2: maybe has accomplished. They're not meant to take away from
27:23
Speaker 2: traditional showers, but designed to celebrate achievements outside of marriage
27:28
Speaker 2: and motherhood. That's fine. You know, I know some people
27:34
Speaker 2: a little worked up. You shouldn't do that, or you know,
27:37
Speaker 2: oh hey, old you know women for doing it. It's
27:39
Speaker 2: you know, it's an idea for a party. It's like
27:42
Speaker 2: friendsgiving or gallantines or you know, predsgiving. If you get
27:47
Speaker 2: together with your friends much predator and eat mac and cheese.
27:51
Speaker 2: Whatever you do, whatever it is that makes you happy.
27:55
Speaker 2: We need more things celebrating each other period, right, more
27:59
Speaker 2: ways to lift each other up. I'm for that. According
28:02
Speaker 2: to a new survey, the average American will ask what
28:04
Speaker 2: did you say? Or something similar to that ninety one
28:07
Speaker 2: times a month or more than a thousand times a year.
28:10
Speaker 2: Seventeen percent of those surveyed admit they've avoided a social
28:13
Speaker 2: situation because of hearing difficulties. And it isn't just about
28:17
Speaker 2: getting old. In fact, more gen zers said that they
28:20
Speaker 2: did this than boomers, probably because and here we go,
28:25
Speaker 2: a lot of people attribute hearing problems to age, and
28:30
Speaker 2: some say get alloud music in the car. However, there's
28:33
Speaker 2: a good group of people saying it's because they're listening
28:35
Speaker 2: to headphones or earbuds at high volume. Some also think
28:40
Speaker 2: it's due to loud concerts. So I don't know. Are
28:43
Speaker 2: the earbuds contributing to younger people having more hearing loss? Possibly?
28:50
Speaker 2: I know when my kids first started listening to headphones,
28:52
Speaker 2: we got the ones that you could you know, they
28:53
Speaker 2: were limited, you could only get so loud with them.
28:56
Speaker 2: And then of course as soon as they go to
28:57
Speaker 2: the earbuds, it's like, I mean, they may make those,
29:00
Speaker 2: but you know, by that point it's you know, you're lost, man,
29:04
Speaker 2: They're in it at that point. Four year old boy
29:07
Speaker 2: who broke a rare, priceless, thirty five hundred year old
29:11
Speaker 2: ancient artifact while visiting a museum in Israel last month
29:14
Speaker 2: has been fully forgiven. At least as far as the
29:16
Speaker 2: museum is concerned. The incident is ancient history. Restoration experts
29:21
Speaker 2: have perfectly put all the pieces back together, and the jar,
29:24
Speaker 2: dating back to the Bronze Age, is back on display
29:27
Speaker 2: at the Heck Museum. In fact, the boy was recently
29:30
Speaker 2: invited back with his family for another visit and he
29:33
Speaker 2: got a personal hands on lesson on how the jar
29:35
Speaker 2: was put back together. An addition to the piece being
29:38
Speaker 2: back on display, the museum also added a sign which reads,
29:40
Speaker 2: please do not touch now. Giving him a hands on
29:44
Speaker 2: personal lesson seems a bit dangerous. That's flirting with damage.
29:49
Speaker 2: That's flirting with danger, right, could be if you were
29:54
Speaker 2: going to name the last really really healthy vegetable that
29:58
Speaker 2: you ate, what would you pick? Kale, carrots, all good
30:02
Speaker 2: for you, But vegetables that are deemed the healthiest by
30:05
Speaker 2: the CDC is one you won't find in many refrigerators
30:10
Speaker 2: in the US. It's watercress. The leafy green scored a
30:14
Speaker 2: perfect one hundred out of one hundred in nutrient density.
30:18
Speaker 2: So what is it? Why is it so good? Watercress
30:20
Speaker 2: is an aquatic plant that grows in shallow water damp
30:23
Speaker 2: soil and has a peppery flavor and is packed with vitamins, minerals,
30:26
Speaker 2: and antioxidants. While you can cook watercress, experts say it's
30:31
Speaker 2: best to reap all the health benefits. You just toss
30:33
Speaker 2: it into a salad, add it to a sandwich, or
30:36
Speaker 2: use it as a garnish and a soup. Omelets and
30:39
Speaker 2: other things. Some of the other powerhouse vegetables according to
30:42
Speaker 2: the CDC Chinese cabbage, Swiss charred beatroot, see the Australians
30:48
Speaker 2: love the beetroot and then also spinach. So there you go. So,
30:52
Speaker 2: while the watercress got one hundred out of one hundred,
30:55
Speaker 2: Chinese cabbage was ninety two, Swiss charred eighty nine, beatroot
30:59
Speaker 2: eighty seven eighty six. They put beatroot on hamburgers, man,
31:03
Speaker 2: they love the beatroot on a hamburger. They just love it.
31:06
Speaker 1: Man.
31:07
Speaker 2: It's just one of those things. First time I got
31:10
Speaker 2: a burger in Australia, they put beatroot on it and
31:13
Speaker 2: I was like, what is this? What is going on?
31:15
Speaker 2: And I was by myself. I was like, why is
31:18
Speaker 2: there this giant hunk of you know, just a slab
31:23
Speaker 2: of gelatinous goo. It's not fully gelatinous, there's a little
31:27
Speaker 2: substance to it, but still, but apparently I should have
31:30
Speaker 2: eaten it would have been really really good for you.
31:33
Speaker 2: That'll do it for this Monday edition of the show.
