- 0:01Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
- 0:05Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:08Speaker 2: Friday morning, the second day of May. I'm Wes, thanks
- 0:12Speaker 2: for joining me. We're working our way into Star Wars
- 0:17Speaker 2: Day weekend. Can we go ahead and start celebrating Star
- 0:19Speaker 2: Wars Day now? I mean, I know it's not May
- 0:22Speaker 2: the fourth yet, but it's close enough you can make
- 0:26Speaker 2: it a whole Star Wars weekend. I suppose got all
- 0:29Speaker 2: these episodes of and Or enjoying season two of and
- 0:35Speaker 2: Or so far, I'm four episodes in. They're coming out
- 0:40Speaker 2: in waves of three. So I thought the first season
- 0:44Speaker 2: of and Or was excellent, as good as anything, maybe
- 0:48Speaker 2: the best sort of I like Mandalorian a lot. I
- 0:51Speaker 2: do like I really enjoyed, especially the first season of Mandalorian.
- 0:56Speaker 2: But you know, and Or just it's just hitting a
- 0:59Speaker 2: certain way. And I know now we're into the second season,
- 1:03Speaker 2: and I don't want to spoil anything. I don't do that,
- 1:07Speaker 2: but it's there's a lot of talk about some of
- 1:12Speaker 2: the themes in the show. I think there's people who
- 1:16Speaker 2: sometimes maybe watch Star Wars and they see a lot
- 1:21Speaker 2: of politics in it. And now some shows and movies
- 1:26Speaker 2: you're going to see politics when you're watching it. I
- 1:29Speaker 2: did a show weeks ago about rewatching The Dark Knight Rises,
- 1:36Speaker 2: the third Chris Nolan Batman movie, and how watching it
- 1:42Speaker 2: now it just hits a little differently. It was a
- 1:46Speaker 2: very different experience watching it after the Trump reelection and
- 1:51Speaker 2: the comeback. It just hit differently. There were so many
- 1:54Speaker 2: things about it they kind of lined up with things
- 1:57Speaker 2: that sort of happened. I mean it's metaphorical, of course,
- 2:00Speaker 2: and it wasn't intentional. I don't think Chris Nolan has
- 2:03Speaker 2: a unless he's a time traveler. I don't know that
- 2:05Speaker 2: he has a crystal ball. Although if you can make
- 2:08Speaker 2: a case with Christopher Nolan's movies that if there is
- 2:11Speaker 2: a director that has the ability to travel in time,
- 2:15Speaker 2: it would probably be Chris Nolan. I mean he's figured
- 2:18Speaker 2: it out in at least one movie. No spoilers, not
- 2:21Speaker 2: going to do that, and he kind of well, maybe
- 2:24Speaker 2: a couple.
- 2:24Speaker 3: Of movies he figured out.
- 2:27Speaker 2: One of them he told the story backwards, So that's
- 2:30Speaker 2: another way I suppose you could make a case for
- 2:32Speaker 2: time travel. But anyway, so sometimes you're going to see that,
- 2:36Speaker 2: sometimes you're going to see certain themes in it that
- 2:41Speaker 2: relate to real life. It's just the way it is.
- 2:44Speaker 2: Sometimes it's being done on purpose. Sometimes I think they
- 2:48Speaker 2: think it's being done on purpose, and then it's not.
- 2:51Speaker 2: I don't know that I've seen anywhere than any of
- 2:53Speaker 2: the themes of and Or are specifically trying to mirror
- 2:57Speaker 2: things happening in the world. There has been some discussions
- 3:01Speaker 2: about people not having their papers and the Evil Empire
- 3:06Speaker 2: coming in to see people that don't.
- 3:08Speaker 3: Have their papers.
- 3:10Speaker 2: I don't know that when and Or season two was
- 3:12Speaker 2: getting made a year ago, you know, because it's been
- 3:17Speaker 2: a while the first season was out, and then it
- 3:19Speaker 2: takes a while for them to get these things made.
- 3:21Speaker 2: There's a lot of CGI and these things. So I
- 3:24Speaker 2: don't know that they could have possibly gotten any episodes
- 3:28Speaker 2: with any illegals with bad paperwork written into the show
- 3:35Speaker 2: just in the last one hundred days.
- 3:37Speaker 3: I don't think.
- 3:38Speaker 2: I think it took them longer than one hundred days,
- 3:41Speaker 2: is what I'm getting at. I don't know that there
- 3:43Speaker 2: was really any direct tie in, unless they were drawing
- 3:48Speaker 2: from the Obama presidency when he deported more people than
- 3:52Speaker 2: any president in I guess ever right ever, so maybe
- 3:59Speaker 2: they were drawing from that.
- 4:00Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 4:00Speaker 2: I'm not going to put that out there. I guess
- 4:02Speaker 2: I kind of did, but you know what I mean,
- 4:04Speaker 2: I'm not saying that that's where they drew it from.
- 4:05Speaker 2: And I don't think I think people that are jumping
- 4:07Speaker 2: to that conclusion maybe are being a little They're wanting
- 4:12Speaker 2: to see they're reading the tea leaves. I don't know,
- 4:16Speaker 2: through blue colored glasses or whatever.
- 4:18Speaker 3: To mix some metaphors.
- 4:20Speaker 2: But my point is you can see things in it.
- 4:22Speaker 2: And I don't know that my friends on the left
- 4:24Speaker 2: that see Star Wars as you know, Republicans or the
- 4:29Speaker 2: Evil Empire and the rebellion or the Democrats, I don't
- 4:33Speaker 2: know that I see it that way. I mean, you
- 4:35Speaker 2: could stretch it and go either direction. I can make
- 4:38Speaker 2: a stretch the other way and say, you know, the
- 4:41Speaker 2: ones that tell you what you're allowed to think and
- 4:42Speaker 2: say and do and what you have to do when
- 4:45Speaker 2: there's an illness that starts that you know, maybe one
- 4:49Speaker 2: of their own was at least in some way connected
- 4:52Speaker 2: to that illness getting started, and then also one of
- 4:57Speaker 2: the people who profited greatly off of any of the
- 5:00Speaker 2: treatments for it. That we're just kind of being made
- 5:02Speaker 2: up on the fly. You can make any of those
- 5:04Speaker 2: cases if you want to, if you really want to
- 5:08Speaker 2: stretch it. And again, just because I'm kind of quasi
- 5:10Speaker 2: putting it out there doesn't mean I'm making a strong
- 5:13Speaker 2: case for it. My point is I hope I can
- 5:16Speaker 2: get through the final This is just a two season show,
- 5:20Speaker 2: and then it catches you up to where the movie
- 5:21Speaker 2: Rogue One was, which is the immediate prequel to the
- 5:26Speaker 2: original Star Wars movie, which was originally called Star Wars
- 5:29Speaker 2: and then later Star Wars a New Hope. So I'm
- 5:32Speaker 2: hoping I can get through the second season of it
- 5:34Speaker 2: and not find anything drippingly political in it. That just
- 5:39Speaker 2: kind of drives me crazy because I don't need that.
- 5:41Speaker 2: I don't want that. I just want to be able
- 5:42Speaker 2: to enjoy it. So far, so good. I know that
- 5:47Speaker 2: the star of the show was on Jimmy Kimmel and
- 5:50Speaker 2: made some comment negative comments about Trump. I kind of
- 5:53Speaker 2: expect that now when someone goes in the other direction,
- 5:58Speaker 2: it's kind of a breadth of fresh air, but then
- 6:02Speaker 2: also a bit of a oh no, career suicide, and
- 6:05Speaker 2: you hope that's not what happens. People like Zachary Levi
- 6:08Speaker 2: and you know, who came out and supported Trump because
- 6:11Speaker 2: he didn't want to go to World War three. Who
- 6:13Speaker 2: wants to go to World War three? If you want
- 6:15Speaker 2: to have World War three, I think maybe you're on.
- 6:19Speaker 3: The side of the Empire. That's all. That's all I'm
- 6:22Speaker 3: getting at. I mean, is that a fair statement.
- 6:25Speaker 2: As we get ready to kick off Star Wars Day weekend,
- 6:28Speaker 2: it is Friday, and that means we're gonna dive into
- 6:31Speaker 2: some strange and bizarre news from around the world. We
- 6:35Speaker 2: got a couple of stories that involve airplanes. Now, let
- 6:39Speaker 2: me do this first, because one percent, if the kangaroo
- 6:43Speaker 2: story that happened over near Auburn was not basically a
- 6:48Speaker 2: local story, it would have made it into weird News, right,
- 6:53Speaker 2: It would have made it into our Strange and Bizarre
- 6:54Speaker 2: News segment.
- 6:55Speaker 3: It would have done it.
- 6:57Speaker 2: One of the sites I go to as I'm researching
- 7:00Speaker 2: and looking for these kinds of stories, one hundred percent
- 7:03Speaker 2: had the story about the kangaroo, which, by the way,
- 7:05Speaker 2: if you didn't know this, apparently the kangaroo that got
- 7:07Speaker 2: loose along the Highway I eighty five over between Auburn
- 7:13Speaker 2: and Tuskegee was named Sheila, which is a very appropriate
- 7:17Speaker 2: name for a female kangaroo, a pet kangaroo, which I
- 7:21Speaker 2: didn't know you could have a pet kangaroo. Now I
- 7:23Speaker 2: kind of want one. I don't know how expensive it is,
- 7:25Speaker 2: and I don't know how my dog would react to that,
- 7:27Speaker 2: But nor do I know if a kangaroo would fit
- 7:30Speaker 2: through our dog door. I don't think it would, but
- 7:33Speaker 2: I'd like to find out. And how high do the
- 7:35Speaker 2: fences need to be? Honestly, I don't know. I don't
- 7:37Speaker 2: know what to be prepared for. But apparently these people
- 7:40Speaker 2: weren't prepared either, So that's why I wonder these things.
- 7:43Speaker 2: So it would have made it into our Strange and
- 7:44Speaker 2: Bizarre News, but it's not going to be there because
- 7:46Speaker 2: we've already covered it. I mean, I kind of just
- 7:48Speaker 2: did a little bit, But I want to start with this.
- 7:51Speaker 2: Easy Jet flight England to Morocco made an emergency landing
- 7:57Speaker 2: in Portugal when a passenger freaked out because he thought, oh,
- 8:00Speaker 2: oh no, there's snakes on a plane.
- 8:04Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 8:05Speaker 2: The airline says the man was wearing a shirt with
- 8:07Speaker 2: a snake pattern and he appeared to be hallucinating. At
- 8:10Speaker 2: one point, he repeatedly shouted snakes on a plane.
- 8:14Speaker 3: We need to land.
- 8:16Speaker 2: His behavior made everyone on the plane nervous, including the pilot,
- 8:19Speaker 2: who made the decision to divert to Portugal. Once safely
- 8:23Speaker 2: on the ground, authorities came on took the passenger from
- 8:26Speaker 2: the plane. The flight eventually took off again and arrived
- 8:29Speaker 2: in Morocco with no further incidents. So I didn't see
- 8:34Speaker 2: a picture of the guy. I'm assuming. I'm assuming he
- 8:39Speaker 2: didn't look anything like Samuel L. Jackson, But maybe he did,
- 8:42Speaker 2: I don't know, might have reacted a little bit differently
- 8:46Speaker 2: about the snakes on the plane. Maybe different terminology.
- 8:51Speaker 3: The movie was.
- 8:53Speaker 2: The movie wasn't as bad as it should have been
- 8:56Speaker 2: to make it a good bad movie.
- 8:57Speaker 3: Does that make sense?
- 8:59Speaker 2: You want to see a good movie, or if you
- 9:01Speaker 2: can appreciate a really, really, really bad movie.
- 9:03Speaker 3: It has to be bad.
- 9:05Speaker 2: So Nake's on a Plane was somewhere like middle ish,
- 9:09Speaker 2: little below middleish, like like in the four out of ten.
- 9:13Speaker 2: If you were gonna rank it, you might give it
- 9:15Speaker 2: a four out of ten. That's not bad enough to
- 9:17Speaker 2: make it really good. You want a solid one er
- 9:19Speaker 2: point five. Those are the ed Wood quality movies that
- 9:24Speaker 2: are so bad that they're fantastic, but Anyway, it's just
- 9:27Speaker 2: my opinion.
- 9:28Speaker 3: All right.
- 9:29Speaker 2: Next, we got passengers on a Delta Airlines flight from
- 9:32Speaker 2: Atlanta to Chicago. Uh, basically, we're called into duty when
- 9:39Speaker 2: part of the plane's ceiling fell down shortly after takeoff.
- 9:44Speaker 2: Passengers say that a large ceiling panel broke loose came
- 9:47Speaker 2: crashing down. Several people had to hold up the panel
- 9:51Speaker 2: while remaining in their seats just to keep it off
- 9:54Speaker 2: people's heads. Once the plane reached altitude, the crew was
- 9:58Speaker 2: able to tape it back into play. The pilot decided
- 10:01Speaker 2: he better turn the plane around, though, and go back
- 10:03Speaker 2: to Atlanta for cabin maintenance. A video of the incident
- 10:06Speaker 2: was shared on social media. Passengers were boarded on another
- 10:09Speaker 2: plane took off with that incident. I'm thinking some hazard
- 10:12Speaker 2: pay for the passengers. I mean, I know they're not
- 10:15Speaker 2: paid passengers, but they themselves paid, So I would think
- 10:20Speaker 2: that maybe they deserve something holding up the ceiling of
- 10:25Speaker 2: the plane while they're flying, right, that would be good.
- 10:28Speaker 2: All right, let's jump over not an airline, but let's
- 10:30Speaker 2: have another snake story. So basically, you go out to
- 10:35Speaker 2: eat and you have a bad experience in a restaurant,
- 10:38Speaker 2: and you usually say well, I'm never going to eat
- 10:40Speaker 2: out again. Carletta Andrews says that she's not going to
- 10:45Speaker 2: go out to eat again because of what happened to her.
- 10:47Speaker 2: And this really does make sense. This isn't just like, hey,
- 10:50Speaker 2: the waiter didn't come to our table very much, we
- 10:53Speaker 2: didn't get our refills on our drinks or whatever. This
- 10:57Speaker 2: is a little worse than that. Scarletta was at a
- 11:00Speaker 2: Mexican restaurant in Sandston, Virginia, having a margarita when all
- 11:04Speaker 2: of a sudden, a baby snake fell out of the ceiling,
- 11:08Speaker 2: bounced off her head, and landed in her drink. She says,
- 11:12Speaker 2: I leaned in to take a sip and I noticed
- 11:13Speaker 2: something hit me in the forehead and I looked at
- 11:16Speaker 2: my husband, like what was that. When I turned around,
- 11:19Speaker 2: I saw the snake in my margarita and it was
- 11:22Speaker 2: moving and wrapping around my straw. A customer walked over
- 11:28Speaker 2: and helped grab the snake from the drink, took it outside.
- 11:31Speaker 2: The restaurant offered to move her to another table. She said, no,
- 11:33Speaker 2: I think I'm going to leave. Afterwards, she said she's
- 11:37Speaker 2: not gonna go out to eat again, at least not
- 11:39Speaker 2: anytime soon. So you know, who could blame her? Who
- 11:46Speaker 2: could blame her for not wanting to go out to
- 11:48Speaker 2: eat again?
- 11:49Speaker 3: You know?
- 11:50Speaker 2: Hey. A former Disney employee in Florida was sentenced to
- 11:53Speaker 2: three years in prison for hacking into the company's computer
- 11:55Speaker 2: servers to change the restaurant menus. Michael Schure worked as
- 12:01Speaker 2: a menu production manager at Disney World in Florida, but
- 12:06Speaker 2: was fired back in June after the company discovered he
- 12:10Speaker 2: had altered the menus to falsify allergen information, change prices,
- 12:14Speaker 2: and add profane language. Disney says it noticed the sabotage
- 12:19Speaker 2: before the printed menus were shipped out to restaurants. He
- 12:23Speaker 2: was handed over to police, and he was charged with
- 12:25Speaker 2: computer fraud and aggravated identity theft. He pled guilty in January.
- 12:30Speaker 2: Part of his sentence, he is required to pay six
- 12:33Speaker 2: hundred and ninety thousand dollars in restitution. So yeah, this
- 12:40Speaker 2: sounds almost like, you know, George Costanza trying to get
- 12:44Speaker 2: fired from the Yankees. That's a pretty big one, especially
- 12:47Speaker 2: if you're messing around with the allergen information and profane language.
- 12:53Speaker 3: That's not good.
- 12:53Speaker 2: That's like putting on the Mickey costume and rubin strawberries and.
- 12:58Speaker 3: Stuff all over your shirt. Right, all right. Another Disney story.
- 13:07Speaker 2: If you're planning a family trip to Walt Disney World,
- 13:10Speaker 2: they say pack your patients. Everybody says that you gotta
- 13:14Speaker 2: be ready. Patience, you gotta have it. You're gonna be
- 13:17Speaker 2: waiting in lines, You're gonna be people around, there's gonna
- 13:19Speaker 2: be waits for food, all that sort of stuff. Bad advice, though,
- 13:24Speaker 2: would be packing your cocaine. Florida dad was arrested when
- 13:27Speaker 2: he tried to enter the Magic Kingdom with a wallet
- 13:29Speaker 2: stuffed with cocaine that he told police that he brought
- 13:33Speaker 2: along to help him deal with stress during the day.
- 13:37Speaker 2: It's not unusual to fill you need a little boost
- 13:40Speaker 2: to get you through the day with all the crowds
- 13:42Speaker 2: and long lines that we've discussed, but I don't know,
- 13:46Speaker 2: Maybe think about coffee, maybe a caffeinated soft drink, maybe
- 13:52Speaker 2: an energy drink. Forty four year old Dustin Lee Wallace
- 13:55Speaker 2: says he needed something a little stronger, and he thought
- 13:58Speaker 2: he would bring cocaine in the park. He was stopped
- 14:01Speaker 2: and searched by park security and then later arrested. Yeah,
- 14:06Speaker 2: Pennsylvania High School had to dismiss early when cafeteria at
- 14:12Speaker 2: the school was taken over by a colony of ants.
- 14:15Speaker 2: Lower Daulphin High School discovered the ant infestation in the
- 14:20Speaker 2: kitchen and notice the staff I had been forced to
- 14:23Speaker 2: discard a lot of the food. Yeah, shortage of the
- 14:28Speaker 2: food was available for lunches, so the school had to
- 14:30Speaker 2: send students home early. School was back in session the
- 14:34Speaker 2: following day with only cold lunches that were served to
- 14:38Speaker 2: students in another area of the school. Exterminators have been
- 14:42Speaker 2: working to make sure that insects were taken care of
- 14:47Speaker 2: and they could get back to serving regular lunches to
- 14:50Speaker 2: the kids. A sus gross all right, a self described
- 14:54Speaker 2: TikTok astrologer who claims to be able to predict things
- 14:57Speaker 2: like earthquakes, probably should have seen police coming as they
- 15:02Speaker 2: were getting ready to arrest him. Authorities in me and
- 15:05Speaker 2: Mar arrested a popular TikToker, John Mothie. I guess it's
- 15:10Speaker 2: like Timothy, but John Methye I don't know for predicting
- 15:14Speaker 2: that another powerful earthquake would rock the Asian nation just
- 15:17Speaker 2: two weeks after one killed thirty seven hundred people and
- 15:21Speaker 2: destroyed countless homes and buildings. His followers, who were already
- 15:26Speaker 2: on edge and fearful of aftershocks, heard the prediction that
- 15:31Speaker 2: a strong quake would hit every city in me and
- 15:34Speaker 2: mar within twelve days and panicked kind of on edge.
- 15:38Speaker 2: Thirty seven hundred people had just died, and nobody wanted
- 15:42Speaker 2: to go through a very strong earthquake in every city,
- 15:46Speaker 2: So there were people who moved out of apartment buildings
- 15:49Speaker 2: out of fear of it collapsing, and rented houses away
- 15:51Speaker 2: from the large cities. The country's military raided the twenty
- 15:54Speaker 2: one year old's home and arrested him for spreading false
- 15:57Speaker 2: information about earthquakes. I think it's more about just causing
- 16:02Speaker 2: a panic, isn't it. Today's show brought to you by
- 16:04Speaker 2: Columbus State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center, Inspiring and
- 16:09Speaker 2: educating the youth and future STEM leaders and STEM career
- 16:15Speaker 2: holders that really of all ages. I mean, they do
- 16:18Speaker 2: it for school age kids, as school age kids visit
- 16:22Speaker 2: the Coca Cola Space Science Center, but they also do
- 16:24Speaker 2: it through their university programs where you can learn engineering, astronomy, physics,
- 16:30Speaker 2: and the careers in space and STEM fields are booming
- 16:34Speaker 2: right now and you can learn more about maybe getting
- 16:38Speaker 2: your degree on their website CCSSC dot org. While you're there,
- 16:45Speaker 2: also check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got
- 16:48Speaker 2: this incredible collaboration that they do with the Schwobe School
- 16:53Speaker 2: of Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome.
- 16:56Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 17:01Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 17:03Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 17:07Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
- 17:12Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
- 17:16Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center and the new season of Music
- 17:19Speaker 2: under the Dome. Check out upcoming dates for the shows,
- 17:24Speaker 2: and also check out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up.
- 17:27Speaker 2: Where you can get outside. Sometimes you do it at
- 17:30Speaker 2: the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere
- 17:34Speaker 2: outside the city lights. You don't want any light interference,
- 17:36Speaker 2: and you can do that as well. Upcoming Astronomy Night
- 17:39Speaker 2: events also on their website. It's CCSSC dot org. As
- 17:43Speaker 2: Sean Crusan says, Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org. I
- 17:48Speaker 2: just remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space
- 17:51Speaker 2: Science Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you
- 17:56Speaker 2: by Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your
- 17:59Speaker 2: garage or needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular
- 18:05Speaker 2: maintenance that it's time for. It's always good to get
- 18:08Speaker 2: maintenance on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 18:13Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 18:16Speaker 2: care of square in that away for you, and while
- 18:18Speaker 2: they're there, you can always ask them questions about some
- 18:21Speaker 2: of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to
- 18:23Speaker 2: your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what
- 18:28Speaker 2: you want it to be and you need some repair
- 18:30Speaker 2: work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a
- 18:32Speaker 2: brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise
- 18:36Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
- 18:39Speaker 2: sort of insulation issue that you've got with colder or
- 18:42Speaker 2: warmer weather. Sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
- 18:46Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
- 18:49Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
- 18:52Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
- 18:54Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know,
- 18:58Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
- 19:01Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man caved. You'd
- 19:03Speaker 2: like to be able to open the door up and
- 19:05Speaker 2: not invite all the insects in. They can do that
- 19:08Speaker 2: for you as well, And again they do after hours calls.
- 19:11Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
- 19:13Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
- 19:16Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, And they do

- 19:30Speaker 2: Right after the break. There's a couple of things that
- 19:41Speaker 2: take place in the month of May. I forgot to
- 19:44Speaker 2: really talk about either of these yesterday, or I had
- 19:46Speaker 2: other things to talk about. One is the start of
- 19:49Speaker 2: no Meat May. People try to go the whole month
- 19:52Speaker 2: of May without eating any meat. I celebrated yesterday by
- 19:55Speaker 2: eating meat No Meatmay dot org has a bunch of
- 19:59Speaker 2: free the recipes and cookbooks.
- 20:02Speaker 3: And meal plans.
- 20:04Speaker 2: If you decide you want to go the whole month
- 20:05Speaker 2: of mat without and maybe you started it yesterday and
- 20:08Speaker 2: you're trying to get through the whole month without eating meat.
- 20:12Speaker 2: By coincidence, it's also National Salad Month. So I don't
- 20:18Speaker 2: know if this is one of those no meat triggered
- 20:22Speaker 2: salad month, salad month triggered.
- 20:24Speaker 3: Meat, I know of it.
- 20:25Speaker 2: It's people saying we don't need to have cows because
- 20:28Speaker 2: the cow farts changing the climate and all those sorts
- 20:31Speaker 2: of things. Anyway, it's whatever you want to do. If
- 20:34Speaker 2: you think not eating meat for a month is going
- 20:36Speaker 2: to be good for your health, then by all means
- 20:39Speaker 2: do it. If you think that the cow farts are
- 20:41Speaker 2: going to change the temperature of the planet, you probably
- 20:45Speaker 2: maybe you should do some more research.
- 20:47Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not a fardologist. Well my wife.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Might argue otherwise, but I'm definitely not a calfartologist. She
- 20:55Speaker 2: would agree with that. And I'll just tell you that
- 20:59Speaker 2: chances are you could probably have cows. And these are
- 21:05Speaker 2: the same people, also, by the way, that said you
- 21:06Speaker 2: shouldn't have a dog because the dog's farts and breathing
- 21:11Speaker 2: and all that sort of stuff. You don't want all
- 21:12Speaker 2: that co two. So I appreciate National Salad Month. If
- 21:20Speaker 2: you're gonna eat no meat, you should definitely be eating
- 21:23Speaker 2: lots of lots of salad.
- 21:25Speaker 3: I mean, that's what you would do.
- 21:27Speaker 2: It's also no mo May, which is again there's a
- 21:33Speaker 2: there's a climate reason for all of this, I guess,
- 21:36Speaker 2: because they say you don't mow your grass through the
- 21:38Speaker 2: month of May the entire month, Let the grass grow,
- 21:42Speaker 2: let all of the little weeds grow their flowers, and
- 21:46Speaker 2: then bees will emerge from hibernation and you know, do
- 21:51Speaker 2: their thing, and it'll help with the bee population, might
- 21:57Speaker 2: even help, I guess with butterflies. You know, I'm pro butterfly.
- 22:00Speaker 2: I'm nothing if I'm not pro butterfly.
- 22:03Speaker 3: I'm pro bees too.
- 22:04Speaker 2: I just don't like the ones that are aggressive. I
- 22:07Speaker 2: don't need that. And it's not because of me. They
- 22:09Speaker 2: don't really bother me. But my kids really don't like
- 22:12Speaker 2: bees and wasps and all.
- 22:14Speaker 3: They just don't. They're not fans.
- 22:17Speaker 2: I'm not fan a fan of them either, but you know,
- 22:20Speaker 2: I tolerate them. But the point is I did get
- 22:23Speaker 2: really stung badly last year by a wasp, and that
- 22:27Speaker 2: was not fun, so I get it. The point is,
- 22:31Speaker 2: if you want to let the grass grow and you
- 22:33Speaker 2: need an excuse to be lazy. This is your excuse
- 22:35Speaker 2: to be lazy. That's the real.
- 22:37Speaker 3: Moral of the story.
- 22:39Speaker 2: Now you may live in a place that has, you know,
- 22:41Speaker 2: an hoa, and you got to make sure that you're
- 22:44Speaker 2: allowed to let your grass grow. And if you could
- 22:46Speaker 2: come up with a reason that it's good for the bees,
- 22:49Speaker 2: which they say, you know, are dying off because of
- 22:52Speaker 2: all the calfarts, that's the point. This is all about calfarts.
- 22:56Speaker 2: The month of May is cal fart month and star wars.
- 23:01Speaker 3: I guess that's the two things.
- 23:03Speaker 2: According to a new survey, we have become homebodies, with
- 23:08Speaker 2: most people choosing to stay in on weekends rather than
- 23:11Speaker 2: go out. When asked to choose, seventy two percent of
- 23:13Speaker 2: respondent said they'd rather stay home with their friends than
- 23:17Speaker 2: go to a bar, club or a night spot, with
- 23:21Speaker 2: just twenty eight percent preferring to go out. And if
- 23:25Speaker 2: you think it's a new trend, well you're right. Thirty
- 23:27Speaker 2: percent of those surveys said their preference for staying in
- 23:29Speaker 2: happened just in the last few years. What could have
- 23:32Speaker 2: happened in the last five years that would make people
- 23:37Speaker 2: appreciate not going out in public more I'm just trying
- 23:42Speaker 2: to think if there was anything that was possibly making
- 23:47Speaker 2: us feel like we needed to stay home all the
- 23:49Speaker 2: time and mail in our ballots for an election, drop
- 23:53Speaker 2: them off in dropboxes that could be pulled out at
- 23:58Speaker 2: the last second and counted.
- 23:59Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know if anything would have
- 24:01Speaker 3: had an influence on that.
- 24:04Speaker 2: But basically, people say they would rather stay in with
- 24:07Speaker 2: friends and go out because I think it's a better connection.
- 24:11Speaker 2: Can't argue with that, especially if you're spending time with
- 24:14Speaker 2: your family or your friends. You're just there and you're
- 24:16Speaker 2: spending time with them and there's not all the extra distractions,
- 24:20Speaker 2: especially not bars and nightclubs. Seventy four percent that said
- 24:24Speaker 2: that they have more meaningful conversations when they hang out
- 24:26Speaker 2: with friends at home rather than going out, So that.
- 24:29Speaker 3: All makes sense, definitely right.
- 24:32Speaker 2: If you want to know when someone's lying, there's apparently
- 24:36Speaker 2: a word that experts say is a dead giveaway to
- 24:41Speaker 2: let you know someone isn't telling the truth. According to
- 24:44Speaker 2: trial lawyer Jefferson Fisher, the one word that gives it
- 24:51Speaker 2: away is when someone says the word never, It means
- 24:55Speaker 2: that they're lying. He says, never is an extreme extremes
- 24:59Speaker 2: are a dead give that they're usually not telling the truth,
- 25:02Speaker 2: Fisher said in an example, if you ask someone were
- 25:06Speaker 2: you texting while you were driving that day and they respond, no,
- 25:10Speaker 2: I never text, never text when I drive, it's clear
- 25:13Speaker 2: they're not being honest. Everyone texts when they drive at
- 25:16Speaker 2: some point in time. He said, never and always. It's
- 25:21Speaker 2: always or never true. So that's a big one. So
- 25:26Speaker 2: there you go. That'll do it for this Friday edition
- 25:29Speaker 2: of the show. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons. Thank
