Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start
0:06
Speaker 1: your day, and you're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show.
0:10
Speaker 2: Thursday morning thirty, first and final day of July. I'm Wes.
0:15
Speaker 2: Thanks for joining me. August Eve. It's coming up fast.
0:22
Speaker 2: It's not all bad news though, as we've discussed for
0:25
Speaker 2: about a week or so now, dragon Con comes in
0:29
Speaker 2: August Labor Day weekend downtown Atlanta. Dragon Con Pregame Show
0:34
Speaker 2: happens the weekend before dragon Con, and you can hear
0:39
Speaker 2: it radio throughout the state of Georgia and surrounding states.
0:45
Speaker 2: It's just the nature of the way radio works. You
0:47
Speaker 2: can pick the signal up as we've got a good radio.
0:49
Speaker 2: You can pick it up from anywhere just about pick
0:52
Speaker 2: it up online from those radio stations anywhere. You can
0:56
Speaker 2: also catch it on the dragon Con Pregame Show podcast.
1:00
Speaker 2: Wherever you listen to this podcast, you can hear that podcast.
1:03
Speaker 2: There are plenty of past episodes for you to go
1:07
Speaker 2: back and check out some interviews. I'm especially proud I
1:11
Speaker 2: will always mention William Shatner. There was an award at
1:14
Speaker 2: the Gabbys for that interview and that show, but there
1:18
Speaker 2: was one in particular I did with Zachary Levi where
1:21
Speaker 2: we talked about mental health, and especially proud of that show.
1:26
Speaker 2: Especially proud of that interview because how deeply he decided
1:32
Speaker 2: to dive into his personal story and his struggles with
1:36
Speaker 2: mental health and his faith and going to counseling on
1:41
Speaker 2: top of getting his life right by his faith. He's
1:45
Speaker 2: an outspoken Christian and he got the role of Shazam
1:52
Speaker 2: immediately after he got out of counseling. He didn't even
1:55
Speaker 2: audition for that role initially, he was trying for a
1:57
Speaker 2: different role in that movie, and he got that role
1:59
Speaker 2: kind of I mean, at least interest in him having
2:02
Speaker 2: that role while he was getting help. So that interview
2:07
Speaker 2: is there, and he has talked a lot about his
2:11
Speaker 2: mental health struggles since then. This was very I'm sure
2:15
Speaker 2: I'm not the first person to interview him to talk
2:17
Speaker 2: about it, but we did spend a lot of time
2:18
Speaker 2: talking about that. And then a similar sort of story
2:22
Speaker 2: with Ross mar Kwand who was on The Walking Dead.
2:26
Speaker 2: And he's been a part of a number of the
2:29
Speaker 2: X Men animation franchise as well as the Marvel Cinematic universe,
2:35
Speaker 2: playing in the role of Red Skull in a couple
2:38
Speaker 2: of movies and he had a similar story. He wanted
2:41
Speaker 2: to be on SNL and it didn't happen. That's what
2:45
Speaker 2: he thought his life was going to be and that
2:47
Speaker 2: acting was going to take him in that direction. It
2:49
Speaker 2: did not. He's a great impressionist. SNL missed out on
2:53
Speaker 2: having him be part of that show, but I think
2:55
Speaker 2: things worked out well for Ross. But my interview with
2:59
Speaker 2: him on there as we actually part of the show
3:01
Speaker 2: where I talked with William Shatner and talked with Ross
3:04
Speaker 2: mar kwand again last year he was actually in Columbus
3:09
Speaker 2: for a different event and we had a chance to
3:12
Speaker 2: chat with him in person. I went and took Jake
3:16
Speaker 2: as my cameraman and we did an interview with him there.
3:18
Speaker 2: But also part of Dragon Con pregame shows passed and
3:23
Speaker 2: you could check those out now. And we're just weeks
3:27
Speaker 2: away from the new episode featuring Katie Sakoff from Battlestar
3:33
Speaker 2: Galactica and the Star Wars universe, as well as Longmire
3:39
Speaker 2: and other guests. I still can't tell you who they
3:41
Speaker 2: are yet. I just can't, and as soon as I can,
3:45
Speaker 2: I promise I hope to have that for you at
3:47
Speaker 2: least maybe by next week at the very latest, so
3:50
Speaker 2: check it out. I want to thank our sponsor for
3:53
Speaker 2: the Dragon Con pregame show. It feels like as always,
3:56
Speaker 2: but almost as always. If you go back and listen
3:58
Speaker 2: to those old shows, you got to go way back
4:00
Speaker 2: before you find one not sponsored by Columbus State University's
4:04
Speaker 2: Coca Cola Space Science Center CCSSC dot org. We got
4:10
Speaker 2: some good numbers yesterday as a country when it comes
4:13
Speaker 2: to the GDP, the spin on that against the president
4:18
Speaker 2: by a lot of the media outlets, some folks actually
4:20
Speaker 2: giving him credit that things are in a good place.
4:24
Speaker 2: It seems we are pacing in the right direction in
4:29
Speaker 2: so many ways, and that just means that we have
4:33
Speaker 2: even more confusion and chaos on the left. They don't
4:38
Speaker 2: know what to do, they don't know how to handle things,
4:42
Speaker 2: they don't know what a strategy is. I actually heard
4:46
Speaker 2: someone recently talking about the fact that sometimes political parties
4:52
Speaker 2: just end, they just go away. There's no more wigs
4:55
Speaker 2: and Tories and all those things. You go back far enough,
5:00
Speaker 2: and there was a time when, yeah, there was no
5:02
Speaker 2: Republican party, and then that happened, and of course Abraham Lincoln,
5:06
Speaker 2: first Republican president. So it is possible for a party
5:12
Speaker 2: to just end. I don't expect the Democrat Party to
5:14
Speaker 2: just end, but it definitely is a very divided group,
5:19
Speaker 2: and historically, at least in recent years, that hasn't been
5:25
Speaker 2: the case. I've done a number of shows, it's not
5:29
Speaker 2: even been a year probably since my last show about
5:32
Speaker 2: the fact that the Democrat Party is one that stays
5:36
Speaker 2: pretty unified, not anymore. That's something that over the past
5:43
Speaker 2: several years, if one of them seemed to stray away
5:47
Speaker 2: just a little bit, they got them back in check
5:49
Speaker 2: very quickly. Now many would stray further to the left,
5:54
Speaker 2: and the people further to the right, you know, just
5:56
Speaker 2: left of center people. They would all hurry to the
5:59
Speaker 2: left a little bit more to try to keep up
6:01
Speaker 2: with the group. And now that we have so many
6:04
Speaker 2: that are so far left, many that are left of center,
6:10
Speaker 2: saying we can't be part of that. We can't be
6:13
Speaker 2: part of the Mom Dannie crowd that's trying to take
6:17
Speaker 2: over New York City and ruin it completely and absolutely
6:21
Speaker 2: destroy it with just basically ideas that are going to
6:25
Speaker 2: run business out of New York City. And we already
6:28
Speaker 2: have a crime problem in New York City. Now it
6:32
Speaker 2: will only get worse if his idea is about what
6:35
Speaker 2: to do with police and all sorts of you know,
6:39
Speaker 2: we're back to this defund the police mentality or this
6:44
Speaker 2: sense social workers in mentality, and that's supposed to fix problems.
6:49
Speaker 2: And now he's screaming for gun control. You know, he
6:51
Speaker 2: wants to push He's blaming recent issues involving guns in
6:57
Speaker 2: New York not on the gun control laws that are there,
7:00
Speaker 2: but on the fact that everyone else doesn't have the
7:02
Speaker 2: same gun control laws that they do, and that basically
7:06
Speaker 2: the only way to let the people of New York
7:08
Speaker 2: know that they'll be safe from these guns coming in
7:11
Speaker 2: from the rest of the country is to make sure
7:14
Speaker 2: that the rest of the country has strict gun laws
7:17
Speaker 2: like New York. I know that there is there's some
7:23
Speaker 2: argument there to be made. I tell you all the time.
7:25
Speaker 2: I can hear other sides of arguments, and I can
7:28
Speaker 2: hear people make cases, and I can give them sometimes
7:32
Speaker 2: a bit of a concession. Say you know, yeah, there
7:35
Speaker 2: are places where guns maybe are coming in from elsewhere.
7:41
Speaker 2: You know that happens. I don't know that New York
7:45
Speaker 2: really needs people bringing them in from the I don't
7:48
Speaker 2: know that New York is sitting around waiting on guns
7:51
Speaker 2: to come in from the Deep South. Like I don't
7:54
Speaker 2: know that that's what's happening in New York City. I
7:56
Speaker 2: don't know that that's what's happening in Chicago. I don't
7:59
Speaker 2: think that the crime in Chicago in the daily and
8:03
Speaker 2: they have horrible shootings every weekend, and I don't think
8:08
Speaker 2: people there are just sitting around going, man, we'd really
8:12
Speaker 2: like to have some gang shootings this weekend, but we're
8:14
Speaker 2: waiting on that shipment of guns to come in from Mississippi.
8:20
Speaker 2: I just don't think that that's what's going on, And
8:22
Speaker 2: I think it's such a stretch and it's so disingenuous
8:24
Speaker 2: to pretend that that's what's going on. Are there some
8:28
Speaker 2: guns coming in and that's happening? Absolutely, Is that where
8:32
Speaker 2: most of the guns in New York City are coming from? No, No,
8:36
Speaker 2: it's not. You have law abiding citizens in New York who,
8:40
Speaker 2: for the most part don't have guns. I guess by
8:44
Speaker 2: obeying the law and not having a gun would make
8:47
Speaker 2: you a law abiding citizen. But the criminals, of course
8:51
Speaker 2: are the ones with guns, and creates a balance, an
8:56
Speaker 2: imbalance of power there, because you know, there's only so
9:00
Speaker 2: much you can do when someone comes at you with
9:02
Speaker 2: a gun in New York City or Chicago or a
9:05
Speaker 2: place that has very strict gun laws, there's a very
9:07
Speaker 2: limited amount of things that you can do. So now
9:11
Speaker 2: that the party is so split, they're desperate for some
9:14
Speaker 2: sign of leadership. We just saw Corey Booker go crazy
9:18
Speaker 2: the other night, starts the other day and starts screaming
9:21
Speaker 2: at people, and you know, he does these things. He
9:24
Speaker 2: likes to posture, he likes to I mean, that's what
9:28
Speaker 2: he does. He had a horrible run for president when
9:31
Speaker 2: he tried to do that. It was really, I mean
9:34
Speaker 2: one of those things where you have that kind of
9:37
Speaker 2: a run, you have that kind of a failure, you
9:38
Speaker 2: don't make it deep into the primaries, and then you
9:43
Speaker 2: just kind of bow out. You go, you know what,
9:45
Speaker 2: American people weren't ready for me. Maybe they never will
9:49
Speaker 2: be now. Kamala Harris had a similar situation where, you know,
9:55
Speaker 2: ultimately the Biden administration over committed and said, you know what,
10:00
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a black woman. We're gonna pick, and
10:02
Speaker 2: then they realized they don't really have anybody we can pick.
10:06
Speaker 2: We're very limited on our options. If they even kind
10:10
Speaker 2: of looked in the direction of Stacy Abrams, that tells
10:13
Speaker 2: you how desperate they were to find someone. So what
10:15
Speaker 2: they did was they went, well, you know, Harris has
10:18
Speaker 2: a profile, let's go with her. Let's take Kamala Harris.
10:22
Speaker 2: That's who we're gonna pick. And I have said many
10:26
Speaker 2: times I think they picked her because they felt like
10:29
Speaker 2: she'd be easy to control. They felt like she would
10:32
Speaker 2: be a lot like Julia Louis Dreyfuss's character on the
10:36
Speaker 2: show Veep, just somebody that they could, you know, put
10:39
Speaker 2: her off to the side in a little box, and
10:41
Speaker 2: if they needed or they'd have her. That's what I
10:43
Speaker 2: think they did. It's one hundred percent what I think
10:46
Speaker 2: they did. And she was able to be whatever this
10:49
Speaker 2: caricature of a vice president that she was, because that's
10:52
Speaker 2: all she was, was a caricature. She seems very much
10:56
Speaker 2: and this is not, you know, I'm just the impression
11:00
Speaker 2: that many Americans have of her now is that she
11:02
Speaker 2: was drunk soccer mom just sitting in an office as
11:07
Speaker 2: the vice president and then her name got called to
11:10
Speaker 2: run for president for some reason. I still think that's because, Hey,
11:13
Speaker 2: she'd be easy to control. I told you back when
11:17
Speaker 2: they were picking a candidate to be the vice president
11:20
Speaker 2: for the Biden campaign, I thought that Tammy Duckworth would
11:25
Speaker 2: have been a great choice. I was actually a little
11:29
Speaker 2: scared of her being picked because I thought she could
11:31
Speaker 2: be an actual, formidable addition to the ticket. That's what
11:36
Speaker 2: I thought, and they didn't pick her. And I think
11:39
Speaker 2: part of why they didn't pick her is because she
11:42
Speaker 2: was somebody who wasn't going to be just put on
11:45
Speaker 2: a shelf. I don't think that was the case, and
11:49
Speaker 2: I think they went with somebody that they felt, well,
11:51
Speaker 2: should we need her, we know we can get from
11:54
Speaker 2: her exactly what we need. And then they did. They decided,
11:58
Speaker 2: let's take her out of the box and put her
12:01
Speaker 2: on the main stage and listen to her babbel incoherent
12:04
Speaker 2: things and have word salads and lose miserably and make
12:08
Speaker 2: zero gains from the previous election. So now what do
12:12
Speaker 2: they do? They're trying to figure out who. Corey Booker
12:16
Speaker 2: seems to be trying to make some noise. I don't
12:19
Speaker 2: know why. No one's interested. No one we know. Gavin
12:24
Speaker 2: Newsom seems to be the one that's just waiting in
12:26
Speaker 2: the wings. But he hasn't had a great run, not
12:28
Speaker 2: as a governor. No, ask the people of California who've
12:33
Speaker 2: had multiple disasters under his watch. And some of the
12:37
Speaker 2: reasons that those things got as bad as they did
12:39
Speaker 2: is because you know, he's looking out for donors and
12:42
Speaker 2: people that need water and those kinds of things, or
12:46
Speaker 2: so they say, or so they say. And now we've
12:52
Speaker 2: got someone that people are saying, well, maybe there is
12:55
Speaker 2: a real candidate out there. Maybe they've got one that
12:59
Speaker 2: is waiting in the wings. They have a candidate that
13:04
Speaker 2: we all know him. We all know the name, we
13:09
Speaker 2: all know him. Maybe for infamous reasons, I don't know,
13:14
Speaker 2: but it's yes, Representative Eric Swalwell. That's right. He has
13:21
Speaker 2: been one of those guys who any opportunity he gets
13:23
Speaker 2: to try to sit in on a committee and make
13:26
Speaker 2: a point, usually embarrasses himself says something really stupid. We
13:31
Speaker 2: all know, wasn't he dating a spy? Chinese spy? I mean,
13:37
Speaker 2: this is not exactly someone anyone would have thought could
13:42
Speaker 2: potentially bubble up, could rise in the rankings as someone
13:48
Speaker 2: who might be on the radar. But apparently there's people
13:50
Speaker 2: saying it and Swalwell is doing his best to go
13:54
Speaker 2: after that all coveted male vote because we learned from
13:59
Speaker 2: this past election with Trump. If you get on the
14:02
Speaker 2: good graces of Joe Rogan, if you can get on
14:05
Speaker 2: Kill Tony, if you can get on some of these
14:08
Speaker 2: podcasts and have a strong male audience, right then you
14:13
Speaker 2: got a shot you reach them. Because the reason that
14:17
Speaker 2: the male audience, I think, in my opinion, has become
14:20
Speaker 2: so prominent and so sought after is I think we
14:23
Speaker 2: have a lot of Americans and it's coming out, especially
14:26
Speaker 2: in male comedians that are just fed up with the
14:29
Speaker 2: whole PC thing. They're fed up with the woke thing.
14:31
Speaker 2: They're fed up with being told you have to do this,
14:33
Speaker 2: you have to do that, and pretending that we're doing
14:36
Speaker 2: it for some greater good. Because there's a number of
14:39
Speaker 2: things that were just this is for the greater good.
14:41
Speaker 2: You can't drive this kind of car anymore, you can't
14:43
Speaker 2: have this kind of shower, you can't have this kind
14:45
Speaker 2: of stove in your kitchen. And you watched all of
14:50
Speaker 2: these comedians that we're talking about all flocked to Texas
14:54
Speaker 2: for freedom. We've watched businesses and people that make lots
14:59
Speaker 2: of of money moved to places like Texas, Georgia, Florida,
15:04
Speaker 2: trying to get away from California and New York. It's
15:08
Speaker 2: only going to get worse if they make the wrong call.
15:11
Speaker 2: They're just it feels like one vote away from making
15:16
Speaker 2: a really bad call for New York City when it
15:19
Speaker 2: comes to the mayor. But anyway, so Eric Swalwell decides
15:23
Speaker 2: he's going to get on social media and he's really
15:25
Speaker 2: going to court these He's going to court these male voters.
15:30
Speaker 2: And Congress took an early like they were. They had
15:34
Speaker 2: their leave planned. They took it a little bit early
15:37
Speaker 2: because I don't even know it was really that early,
15:42
Speaker 2: but they took it a little bit early. They had
15:43
Speaker 2: their August recess just a little bit early, just a
15:46
Speaker 2: couple of days, that's all it was. Now Eric Swalwell
15:50
Speaker 2: accuses the leadership of hey, we're trying to get us
15:53
Speaker 2: out of there so that we can't have any kind
15:56
Speaker 2: of a vote. Concerning the Epstein files, this is the
15:59
Speaker 2: one thing that they're ready to die on. They're convinced
16:02
Speaker 2: there's something horrible in these Epstein files. By the way,
16:06
Speaker 2: all of the Epstein file intelligence has been in the
16:12
Speaker 2: hands of the Biden administration. It was in the hands
16:18
Speaker 2: had the Harris camp would have had access to it.
16:21
Speaker 2: No discussion anywhere in there about Trump, no accusations of
16:27
Speaker 2: him being involved. But that's the accusation now, is that
16:31
Speaker 2: this is the reason that they were cut loose. So
16:33
Speaker 2: Eric Swallwell made a series of videos where he's one
16:36
Speaker 2: he's in a pool with his shirt off and he
16:41
Speaker 2: jumps out of the pool and shoots a basketball and says,
16:43
Speaker 2: you know, I should be working right now, but I
16:46
Speaker 2: should be at the Capitol in a suit, but instead
16:51
Speaker 2: they sent us home. There was one where he is
16:55
Speaker 2: I guess lifting. He's doing a bench press. I'm pumping
16:59
Speaker 2: out iron at the gym instead of working right now
17:02
Speaker 2: because Republicans shut down Congress. And there he is bench
17:08
Speaker 2: pressing one hundred and thirty five or one hundred and
17:13
Speaker 2: forty five pounds? How much is it? One hundred and
17:17
Speaker 2: thirty five pounds, that's what he's doing, So that's two
17:22
Speaker 2: forty five pound weights and the bar right that comes
17:25
Speaker 2: up to one thirty five. You can tell I'm not
17:27
Speaker 2: a gym I mean I go to the gym. I'm
17:30
Speaker 2: not a gym guy. Like when I hear people talk
17:33
Speaker 2: about the weights. I go, that's ninety pounds. I'm aware
17:36
Speaker 2: that there's a weight to the bar. I just don't
17:38
Speaker 2: think of it immediately to that. Jim people do. Jim
17:42
Speaker 2: people have called out Eric Swallwell for trying to use
17:45
Speaker 2: this as some kind of a pr move to court
17:47
Speaker 2: male voters, like testosterone driven male voters are going to go, man,
17:52
Speaker 2: I got bench pressing. Look at that. At least he
17:57
Speaker 2: has a shirt on in the bench press video. He
17:59
Speaker 2: did not when he's in the pool. So he's made
18:02
Speaker 2: these videos and he's basically just saying, yes, this is
18:06
Speaker 2: what they're doing instead of talking about Epstein. They're forcing
18:09
Speaker 2: me to make these silly videos. This is an attempt
18:14
Speaker 2: at getting on the radar. I'll say this. I like
18:17
Speaker 2: it better than Corey Booker screaming at everybody. I mean,
18:22
Speaker 2: they're both lame attempts, but it is better than being
18:25
Speaker 2: screamed at. Today's show brought to you by Columbus State
18:28
Speaker 2: University's Coca Cola Space Science Center.
18:31
Speaker 3: Hey everyone, this is doctor Sean Crusin. I'm the executive
18:34
Speaker 3: director of Columbus State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center.
18:38
Speaker 3: I want to tell you about a very special exhibit
18:41
Speaker 3: that we have on display the summer. It's so big
18:45
Speaker 3: that it can't even fit in our own exhibit gallery.
18:47
Speaker 3: It's just too many pieces. This is a collection of
18:51
Speaker 3: items from the personal collection of astronaut David R. Scott.
18:57
Speaker 3: Dave Scott flew on Gemini eight with Neil Arms, he
19:00
Speaker 3: flew on Apollo nine, a dress rehearsal for the moon landing,
19:04
Speaker 3: and then most importantly perhaps he commanded Apollo fifteen, where
19:08
Speaker 3: he became the first person to ever drive a car
19:11
Speaker 3: on the service of the Moon. Because Dave's brother, Tom
19:14
Speaker 3: lived and worked here in Columbus, Georgia, with our Columbus
19:17
Speaker 3: Chamber of Commerce, we got to be good friends with Tom.
19:20
Speaker 3: Tom has coordinated a very generous donation of artifacts and
19:24
Speaker 3: memorabilia from the Scott Brothers collection to us here at
19:29
Speaker 3: Coca Cola Space Science Center. And again, that collection got
19:32
Speaker 3: so overwhelmingly large we couldn't put it on display here.
19:35
Speaker 3: That's why we're doing the exhibit at the Bow Bartlet Center.
19:38
Speaker 3: They are open from eleven am to four pm Tuesday
19:41
Speaker 3: through Saturday. Go down and check out this great exhibit
19:45

Speaker 2: Company of Columbus can take care of square in that
20:17
Speaker 2: away for you, and while they're there, you can always
20:19
Speaker 2: ask them questions about some of the maybe cosmetic changes
20:22
Speaker 2: you'd like to make to your garage door. Maybe your
20:26
Speaker 2: curb appeal isn't quite what you want it to be
20:28
Speaker 2: and you need some repair work done to the outside door.
20:31
Speaker 2: Maybe you need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe
20:35
Speaker 2: it's making a noise when your garage door opens and closes.
20:38
Speaker 2: Maybe it's some sort of installation issue that you've got
20:41
Speaker 2: with colder or warmer weather. Sometimes that stuff gets in
20:44
Speaker 2: and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation where
20:48
Speaker 2: you'd like to add a screen door to your garage
20:51
Speaker 2: door system that you can put down, and you can
20:53
Speaker 2: use your garage space as a sort of outdoor but indoor.
20:58
Speaker 2: You know, if you like to work on your own
20:59
Speaker 2: car in there, or maybe you just want a little
21:02
Speaker 2: man cavid, you'd like to be able to open the
21:04
Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in. Uh,
21:06
Speaker 2: they can do that for you as well. And again
21:09
Speaker 2: they do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that
21:12
Speaker 2: thought of having your car trapped inside your garage and
21:15
Speaker 2: your garage door won't open and you need somebody to
21:17
Speaker 2: come help, and they do those as well. Seven oh

21:28
Speaker 2: more West Carol Morning Show right after the break. Well,
21:39
Speaker 2: it's never too early to think about fall. We still
21:41
Speaker 2: have another hot month ahead of us, but we can
21:45
Speaker 2: start thinking about fall. We can start looking to post
21:49
Speaker 2: labor day, right, we can start thinking about that. Uh,
21:53
Speaker 2: So let's think about fall TV with basically TV programming
22:01
Speaker 2: are basically saying you're gonna have to wait until fall
22:05
Speaker 2: because that's what we do, that's what you do. They're
22:09
Speaker 2: fully capable of bringing new programming before fall. But that's
22:12
Speaker 2: just the way things have always worked, and they're continuing
22:15
Speaker 2: to do that. The only non sports or game shows
22:19
Speaker 2: that premiere before September Dancing with the Stars season thirty
22:24
Speaker 2: four really and the last year's breakout hit High Potential.
22:32
Speaker 2: NBC gets their new year started September twenty second with
22:35
Speaker 2: the twenty eighth season of The Voice and the second
22:38
Speaker 2: season of Brilliant Minds. Fox gets underway September twenty third
22:44
Speaker 2: with Murder in a Small Town, the second season for that.
22:48
Speaker 2: My friend Kristin Kruk on that show, I know she
22:51
Speaker 2: was excited about getting a second season for that show,
22:55
Speaker 2: and then the show doc CBS starting their new schedule
22:58
Speaker 2: September twenty fourth with season forty nine of Survivor Wow,
23:04
Speaker 2: and then they'll all be on the apps the next day,
23:09
Speaker 2: and it's just back to that point that they could
23:11
Speaker 2: do it these shows. They don't have to go to
23:13
Speaker 2: the traditional network route for any of these shows. They
23:15
Speaker 2: get premiere shows anytime they want to. But they're still
23:17
Speaker 2: sticking with this old formula, and you know, I guess
23:20
Speaker 2: there's a certain amount of familiarity to that. I guess
23:23
Speaker 2: Dad's gone viral after being just exhausted at his daughter's
23:29
Speaker 2: wedding reception and see Chad Anderson, whose daughter Justice, got
23:36
Speaker 2: married in Butler, Missouri, gained social media fame for dramatically
23:40
Speaker 2: expressing his desire to leave the celebration after his social
23:44
Speaker 2: battery ran out and most guests had left. His wife
23:47
Speaker 2: was still socializing. Chad lay on the floor inside the venue,
23:50
Speaker 2: pressing his face and hand against the glass doors, and
23:53
Speaker 2: a humorous display of exhaustion. You may have seen this online.
23:57
Speaker 2: A friend capture the moment on video, which Justice later
24:00
Speaker 2: posted on TikTok with a caption when your mom is
24:02
Speaker 2: being a little social butterfly, but your dad's ready to
24:05
Speaker 2: leave the video game. Fifteen million views, four million likes.
24:10
Speaker 2: The family was both surprised and amused by the response online.
24:14
Speaker 2: We just didn't know how much it would it would
24:16
Speaker 2: blow up the way that it has. So it's a
24:19
Speaker 2: fun story and making the most of something that was
24:21
Speaker 2: going on at a wedding. This guy was ready to go.
24:24
Speaker 2: I've been there. Social battery, man, it runs out, and
24:27
Speaker 2: you're just like, it's time to go right now? What
24:31
Speaker 2: is the ideal bedtime? Bedtimes are probably a topic of
24:34
Speaker 2: discussion right now as many schools in the area getting
24:38
Speaker 2: started back, some of them today and some getting started
24:42
Speaker 2: back next week. So it depends on the person, and
24:46
Speaker 2: I guess the age of people as well. But if
24:48
Speaker 2: your goal is to be more physically fit, you may
24:50
Speaker 2: want to get to bed earlier. A study of nearly
24:53
Speaker 2: twenty thousand people found that people who went to bed
24:55
Speaker 2: around nine pm were more likely to wake up energized
24:58
Speaker 2: and ready to move more exercise than night owl counterparts.
25:03
Speaker 2: Even if you get the same amount of sleep, the
25:06
Speaker 2: timing matters. Early sleep were squeezed in fifteen to thirty
25:09
Speaker 2: more minutes of physical activity the next day compared to
25:12
Speaker 2: those who stayed up late. So if your goal is
25:15
Speaker 2: a healthier lifestyle, it might be time to just get
25:20
Speaker 2: to bed earlier. It's not a bad idea if you're
25:24
Speaker 2: capable of doing it. Not everybody is. Some people have
25:28
Speaker 2: kids that are staying up and you got to you know,
25:31
Speaker 2: in some cases you got to make sure the kids
25:32
Speaker 2: get to bed. In some cases, maybe you snore and
25:35
Speaker 2: your wife likes to get a head start and go
25:37
Speaker 2: to bed before you do. Not speaking of experience or anything,
25:41
Speaker 2: is it time for a spacation. Well, some people crave
25:45
Speaker 2: adventure on vacations. Others want to just party and hang
25:48
Speaker 2: out and others just want to chill. And that's where
25:51
Speaker 2: the spacation comes along. New travel trend. It's all about
25:54
Speaker 2: relaxation and pampering yourself. Massages, facials, wellness activities. Focus on
26:00
Speaker 2: self care, away to unwind and recharge without that stress
26:03
Speaker 2: that often accompanies vacations. Yeah, but you could still stress
26:11
Speaker 2: about that vacation, right if you have anxiety, be about
26:14
Speaker 2: way from things or fomo if you experience fomo and
26:18
Speaker 2: all those sorts of things. So if you want an
26:21
Speaker 2: instant boost in mental health, they say taking a trip
26:23
Speaker 2: will help. According to a new survey, the average person
26:25
Speaker 2: reports feelings seventy percent better mentally after taking a trip.
26:29
Speaker 2: Those who traveled frequently were much more likely to rate
26:33
Speaker 2: their mental health good as good or excellent compared to
26:37
Speaker 2: those who did not travel as much. So traveling good
26:40
Speaker 2: for mental health. Again, unless traveling brings you stress. And
26:46
Speaker 2: if you find yourself crawling into bed only to have
26:48
Speaker 2: your brain rehash every cringey thing that happened to you
26:51
Speaker 2: over the last ten years, you may have turned on
26:54
Speaker 2: the TV for a distraction. And while that was previously
26:57
Speaker 2: thought to be a no no, studies are now saying
27:01
Speaker 2: it might not be a big deal. Seems that it
27:04
Speaker 2: really depends on the person. Screens emit blue light which
27:06
Speaker 2: can interrupt circadian rhythms. And if you like watching a
27:10
Speaker 2: little TV as part of your bedtime routine, though, it
27:12
Speaker 2: becomes just that routine and you can actually help with
27:16
Speaker 2: reducing nighttime anxiety. And they say it's important to keep
27:19
Speaker 2: the volume low though and dim the screen if possible.
27:22
Speaker 2: So if your TV has a timer, set it to
27:24
Speaker 2: go off after about thirty to sixty minutes, that'll do
27:28
Speaker 2: it for this Thursday edition of the show. Thanks to
27:31
Speaker 2: our sponsors and patrons. Thanks for listening. I'll catch you
27:35
Speaker 2: back here tomorrow morning.
