- 0:01Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to The West
- 0:05Speaker 1: Carroll Morning Show.
- 0:09Speaker 2: Friday morning, twenty, first day of February. I'm Wes, thanks
- 0:15Speaker 2: for joining me. We are in a new era of
- 0:21Speaker 2: the Trump presidency as we now have an FBI director
- 0:24Speaker 2: confirmed with Cash Ptel. There's a scene in the show
- 0:33Speaker 2: Entourage where Ari Gold, who is easily the best character
- 0:39Speaker 2: on the show. I don't think there's any argument on
- 0:41Speaker 2: one of the great characters in the history of television,
- 0:46Speaker 2: especially when you get those characters that weren't intended necessarily
- 0:50Speaker 2: to be the main focus of the show, but he
- 0:54Speaker 2: very quickly became the main focus of the show. I
- 0:57Speaker 2: don't know, you know, if they saw it coming or
- 1:01Speaker 2: they knew the talent and potential that they had in
- 1:06Speaker 2: this character. But there's a scene in the show where
- 1:10Speaker 2: he takes over the agency where he works. He's the agent.
- 1:14Speaker 2: Entourage is very loosely based on sort of the life
- 1:18Speaker 2: experiences of Mark Wahlberg and his brother Donnie. Okay, that's
- 1:24Speaker 2: Andy Mark Wahlberg. I guess produced the show, and Ari
- 1:28Speaker 2: Gold is the agent of these characters. And it's a
- 1:34Speaker 2: great character. I mean, just an outstanding character on television.
- 1:39Speaker 2: But there's a scene where he ends up taking over
- 1:42Speaker 2: the agency and does what. I think it's one of
- 1:46Speaker 2: those moments where if you've ever worked at a job
- 1:48Speaker 2: with people that you think, how did I put up
- 1:51Speaker 2: with these people for so long? And you think, man
- 1:54Speaker 2: if I just became the boss here, in what way
- 1:57Speaker 2: would I fire all these people? I mean, you know,
- 2:02Speaker 2: I think people have had that thought run through their
- 2:05Speaker 2: head before at some point. Right, well, he becomes the
- 2:09Speaker 2: boss and spoiler alert, it's one of the great and
- 2:13Speaker 2: the show's been over for a long time, but it's
- 2:15Speaker 2: one of the great scenes in the show where he
- 2:18Speaker 2: just shows up at the office with a paintball gun
- 2:22Speaker 2: and he basically announces loudly to everybody, if you get
- 2:25Speaker 2: paint on you, you're fired. And he just runs around through
- 2:27Speaker 2: the hall shooting people and sometimes, you know, fifty sixty
- 2:30Speaker 2: paintballs in the back, and I just have this image,
- 2:34Speaker 2: while it's not firing people specifically, I just imagine now
- 2:39Speaker 2: as we have our new FBI director in Cash Bettel,
- 2:44Speaker 2: where he's just running around looking for deep state people,
- 2:47Speaker 2: and it's like, you get paint on you, you're probably
- 2:51Speaker 2: going to be investigated. If you get pain on you.
- 2:53Speaker 2: We're going to be digging into your stuff. We want
- 2:55Speaker 2: to know what's going on. That's just what I imagine.
- 2:59Speaker 2: But congratulates to Cash Patel, the new FBI director confirmed.
- 3:07Speaker 2: So it's basically it's game on. I mean, at this point,
- 3:10Speaker 2: it is full on game on. I'm excited to see
- 3:15Speaker 2: what Patel has been in intelligence, and he has been
- 3:20Speaker 2: privy to some information that most of us are not
- 3:23Speaker 2: privy to. And I know he has been accused of
- 3:27Speaker 2: being a conspiracy theorist in an era where many conspiracy
- 3:31Speaker 2: theories ended up being true. So I think we at
- 3:34Speaker 2: least now get an opportunity to find out what this
- 3:36Speaker 2: guy can find under the rocks that he's going to
- 3:39Speaker 2: be turning over in the coming days. I suspect he
- 3:43Speaker 2: may get a quick start. I think he's going to
- 3:45Speaker 2: hit the ground running, and I think things might get very,
- 3:48Speaker 2: very interesting under his leadership there at the FBI. And
- 3:53Speaker 2: I think there's probably some people, I would guess probably
- 3:57Speaker 2: a few people around Washington that you know, maybe they're uh,
- 4:02Speaker 2: you know, pulling the underwear out of the crack of
- 4:05Speaker 2: their butt. You know, they're just kind of like, ee,
- 4:07Speaker 2: this is going to be intense sorry for the visual.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Probably got people that are you know, I just imagine
- 4:15Speaker 2: things are getting real tense, that's all. I would also
- 4:19Speaker 2: imagine that you got some people maybe that said, I
- 4:24Speaker 2: know I didn't say that if Trump won, I would
- 4:27Speaker 2: move to Canada, but you know, I'm thinking about moving
- 4:31Speaker 2: to Canada. Anyway. There's probably a few of those people
- 4:34Speaker 2: looking at Patel's direction and just thinking maybe Canada sounds
- 4:39Speaker 2: like a good place to live, or New Zealand or Italy.
- 4:43Speaker 2: There are a few people that said they were moving
- 4:45Speaker 2: to Italy. So anyway, good luck to the new director
- 4:50Speaker 2: of the FBI. Godspeed and good luck. We wish you
- 4:54Speaker 2: well in these new endeavors as you take this on.
- 4:56Speaker 2: As the continuing hunt for wiping out waste in the
- 5:03Speaker 2: deep state continues on for this administration. And I you know,
- 5:09Speaker 2: like I've said about a lot of the picks, I
- 5:11Speaker 2: can't tell you, is that the best person for the job.
- 5:14Speaker 2: I don't know. It's gonna be fun, though, That's what
- 5:18Speaker 2: I know. It's gonna get real fun, real quick. That's
- 5:21Speaker 2: what I think. Hey, it's Friday. Let's look at some
- 5:25Speaker 2: strange and bizarre news from around the world. Because we
- 5:28Speaker 2: do that on Fridays, and we need it. Sometimes we
- 5:31Speaker 2: just need to take a breath and slow down a minute.
- 5:35Speaker 2: As you know, the weekend's coming up. We just need
- 5:39Speaker 2: a minute, and I got a good one to start
- 5:41Speaker 2: with here on this Friday morning. We'll start in Sri Lanka.
- 5:47Speaker 2: Twenty two million people live there by the Way island nation,
- 5:50Speaker 2: and recently they had no power thanks to a monkey.
- 5:56Speaker 2: A massive nationwide power outage because a monkey got into
- 6:00Speaker 2: power station near the capital city of Colombo. The nation's
- 6:05Speaker 2: energy minister said, a monkey has come in contact with
- 6:09Speaker 2: our grid transformer, causing an imbalance in the system. The
- 6:14Speaker 2: government has taken a lot of heat and faced a
- 6:16Speaker 2: ton of criticism over the outage on social media, with
- 6:19Speaker 2: residents mocking officials for their infrastructure failures. The editor of
- 6:23Speaker 2: a local newspaper writing only in Sri Lanka and a
- 6:26Speaker 2: group of monkeys fighting inside a power station calls an
- 6:29Speaker 2: island wide power outage. No one knows the condition of
- 6:35Speaker 2: the monkey. And you know, I mean, it's got to
- 6:41Speaker 2: be embarrassing. It's got to be embarrassing when you're there.
- 6:44Speaker 2: I mean, there's things that happen here that we go.
- 6:46Speaker 2: This is embarrassing, you know, we haven't had a nationwide
- 6:50Speaker 2: power outage thanks to you know, a stray monkey. It's
- 6:56Speaker 2: got to be a tough one. Just got to be
- 6:57Speaker 2: a tough one as a resident, that's all. But I'm
- 7:00Speaker 2: glad to know that the press there is holding their
- 7:03Speaker 2: feet to the fire, so to speak. All Right, no
- 7:07Speaker 2: pun intended for the monkey, who you know, may not
- 7:11Speaker 2: be with us anymore, I don't know. A Florida couple
- 7:14Speaker 2: was arrested at Wendy's for engaging in what police called
- 7:18Speaker 2: an unnatural act. The unnatural act they're referring to is actually,
- 7:24Speaker 2: I mean, I would qualify this as a natural act.
- 7:27Speaker 2: The problem is is that they did it outside the restaurant,
- 7:30Speaker 2: in front of patrons, traffic, a bus stop that was
- 7:35Speaker 2: just a few feet away, and basically maybe it had
- 7:39Speaker 2: something to do with, you know, Valentine's Day. So fifty
- 7:45Speaker 2: three year old Demetrio Wilson twenty nine year old to
- 7:47Speaker 2: Mario Morrell gave into the urges for this unnatural location
- 7:53Speaker 2: for a natural act, how about that, and decided to
- 7:59Speaker 2: you know, get up to some things on the restaurant's campus.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Police arrest of them, charged with performing an unnatural and
- 8:08Speaker 2: lascivious act. They have each pleaded not guilty to it,
- 8:13Speaker 2: So a lot of witnesses might be tough to get
- 8:16Speaker 2: out of that as a not guilty, But you know,
- 8:20Speaker 2: that's how it goes sometimes. I mean, that's just you know,
- 8:25Speaker 2: you got to plead your case. You got to sit
- 8:27Speaker 2: there and go to court and defend yourself. Hey, a
- 8:30Speaker 2: New Jersey woman got her feathers ruffled when her homeowners
- 8:33Speaker 2: association got upset with her for keeping chickens in her backyard.
- 8:37Speaker 2: And she's been doing it for years. Lourie Smith of
- 8:41Speaker 2: Oh Goodness, Gloucester. I don't know how we say that
- 8:44Speaker 2: in New Jersey. I had been ordered to remove her
- 8:47Speaker 2: birds and her coup by early April, after a judge
- 8:50Speaker 2: said the agreement she claimed she had was not valid.
- 8:55Speaker 2: She says, I was told by a board member we
- 8:57Speaker 2: would be able to have chickens. So we obtained their chickens,
- 9:01Speaker 2: and about six weeks in, I noticed a significant and
- 9:03Speaker 2: profound impact in a positive way in my PTSD symptoms,
- 9:08Speaker 2: and I just thought, this is the greatest thing. This
- 9:10Speaker 2: is a miracle, this is wonderful. Officials now say she's
- 9:14Speaker 2: got to labor fourth and she promises she will continue
- 9:18Speaker 2: to fight. Look, this is one of those things, the
- 9:21Speaker 2: price of eggs. That's one thing she's making. The PTSD case,
- 9:26Speaker 2: that's good, good for her. I hope it's doing great
- 9:29Speaker 2: for her and that if that ends up being what
- 9:31Speaker 2: she needs in her life. But I mean, I would
- 9:34Speaker 2: think price of eggs might just be enough. Hey, for
- 9:37Speaker 2: the first time in history, a woman called on a
- 9:41Speaker 2: dirty hoe to help her in an entanglement with her
- 9:45Speaker 2: romantic interest Floyd. This can't be the first time ever.
- 9:50Speaker 2: Oh Florida woman Melanie Davis made plans to hang out
- 9:54Speaker 2: with a dude last week, but he blew her off
- 9:57Speaker 2: and soon regretted it after she showed up to scream
- 10:02Speaker 2: up to his bedroom window at three in the morning
- 10:04Speaker 2: on a work night. When he did not like the
- 10:09Speaker 2: yelling didn't get any results, the forty seven year old
- 10:11Speaker 2: pushed through a door and punched him, and then grabbed
- 10:14Speaker 2: a garden hoe and hit him again. The blow from
- 10:17Speaker 2: the hoe resulted in a serious cut on the victim's arm.
- 10:20Speaker 2: He was taken to the hospital. She was charged with
- 10:22Speaker 2: felony battery. Davis's rap sheet goes back to her teen years.
- 10:26Speaker 2: She's got twenty eight entries. I don't know how many
- 10:29Speaker 2: involved a hoe. We know at least one tourist village
- 10:34Speaker 2: in China known for snowy landscapes, had to apologize after
- 10:39Speaker 2: they were caught using cotton wool and soapy water to
- 10:42Speaker 2: make fake snow. Chingdou Snow Village experimented unusually experienced unusually
- 10:51Speaker 2: warm I guess they experimented with their their wool and
- 10:55Speaker 2: soapy water snow, but they experienced unusual warm weather during
- 11:01Speaker 2: the Lunar New Year holiday at the end of January,
- 11:03Speaker 2: which meant there was no snow on the ground to
- 11:05Speaker 2: welcome tourists, So the workers at the village put large
- 11:09Speaker 2: cottonwool sheets on the ground on top of houses and
- 11:13Speaker 2: didn't disclose that it wasn't real snow. The village, saying
- 11:17Speaker 2: it deeply apologizes for the fake snow and has offered
- 11:20Speaker 2: refunds to any visitors who want their money back. So
- 11:27Speaker 2: I mean, if people like, if they try to, you know,
- 11:30Speaker 2: throw a snowball, what are They're just getting a handful
- 11:33Speaker 2: of cotton. I mean if you had no snow experience
- 11:37Speaker 2: and it was the first time you ever touched it,
- 11:38Speaker 2: and you thought, wow, this feels a lot like a
- 11:40Speaker 2: like a pillow. You know, you go home feeling pretty
- 11:45Speaker 2: ripped off. Right. Anyone who's ever had young kids or
- 11:49Speaker 2: worked around young kids knows how hard it can be
- 11:51Speaker 2: to get them to go down for a nap. One
- 11:53Speaker 2: daycare center in Michigan came up with an innovative solution.
- 11:57Speaker 2: The Adventures Learning Center in Caledonia sprayed melatonin onto kids
- 12:02Speaker 2: naptime mats. Melatonin is a natural sleep aid, but it
- 12:07Speaker 2: is not FDA approved for children. Doctors do say that
- 12:11Speaker 2: it's likely harmless unless a child has a medical condition
- 12:14Speaker 2: such as asthma. How did the center get caught? It
- 12:18Speaker 2: has cameras streaming a live feed that parents can see
- 12:21Speaker 2: whenever the kids are there. One called a worker spranging
- 12:25Speaker 2: the solution onto three mats. The center has said we
- 12:29Speaker 2: won't do it again, so we'll see what happens from there.
- 12:33Speaker 2: I don't know if those parents keep the kids there
- 12:35Speaker 2: or they say, yeah, we're not going to give you
- 12:38Speaker 2: a chance to do it again. All right, if you
- 12:41Speaker 2: want to attract the ladies, you don't necessarily need big muscles,
- 12:48Speaker 2: don't need a fancy sports car, you don't even need
- 12:50Speaker 2: a great sense of humor. All you really need to
- 12:52Speaker 2: know is a lot about serial killers. Sixty seven year
- 12:57Speaker 2: old criminologist David Wilson is that that's the case for him.
- 13:01Speaker 2: The Scottish professor TV commenter has worked with lots of
- 13:06Speaker 2: them in the last three decades and says that attracts
- 13:09Speaker 2: young's women who are obsessed with true crime stories. He
- 13:14Speaker 2: said on a recent podcast, one woman came up to
- 13:17Speaker 2: me on a book tour and said, Oh, I regard
- 13:19Speaker 2: you as my murder daddy. It's really weird. I've had
- 13:23Speaker 2: people slip me telephone numbers. One woman said that she'd
- 13:27Speaker 2: booked a hotel for the night and she'd got a
- 13:29Speaker 2: double bed, unfortunately for all the ladies. Professor Wilson happily married.
- 13:36Speaker 2: I very consciously always wear my wedding ring. I talk
- 13:40Speaker 2: about my wife Anne. I make people aware I'm not available.
- 13:44Speaker 2: No woman's ever been attracted to a married guy, you know,
- 13:47Speaker 2: no guy's ever worn a wedding ring to attract women.
- 13:52Speaker 2: So I mean he's doing the right thing, making it clear.
- 13:57Speaker 2: I can still backfire a little bit, though, Hey, you
- 14:00Speaker 2: occasionally hear about a bull on the loose, or monkeys
- 14:04Speaker 2: getting into electrical grids, or just a monkey's getting loose
- 14:12Speaker 2: in general, I guess all around. But I'm about a
- 14:14Speaker 2: gray seal that was found wandering the streets from New Haven, Connecticut.
- 14:18Speaker 2: Police there released a photo of the seal crawling next
- 14:23Speaker 2: to a patrol car, and authorities have no idea where
- 14:28Speaker 2: the seal came from. It seemed to be healthy, and
- 14:34Speaker 2: they have relocated the seal to a nearby mystic aquarium.
- 14:40Speaker 2: I guess he'll be popular. They should give him a name,
- 14:43Speaker 2: something you know, smoky. I guess you know, something kind
- 14:46Speaker 2: of police related that'd be nice, not something you see
- 14:50Speaker 2: every day as a seal in a parking lot. I'm
- 14:52Speaker 2: looking at the photo and it's a seal and a
- 14:54Speaker 2: parking lot next to a police cruiser. So after several
- 14:59Speaker 2: thousand years, I'm wondering, the world finally has an answer
- 15:01Speaker 2: to the question what do mummies smell like? Researchers in
- 15:06Speaker 2: Europe have studied nine ancient mummies using trained human sniffers
- 15:12Speaker 2: and a type of device that's described as an electronic
- 15:15Speaker 2: artificial nose, and found that their aromas were woody, sweet,
- 15:20Speaker 2: and spicy. The smells, they say come from resins and
- 15:24Speaker 2: oils like pine, cedar and juniper, that were likely used
- 15:27Speaker 2: in the embalming process to preserve the body. Researchers say
- 15:31Speaker 2: the smell can be used as a way of analyzing
- 15:33Speaker 2: the preserved bodies in a non invasive way, but they
- 15:37Speaker 2: can also now recreate the smells and museums to give
- 15:40Speaker 2: visitors the full mummy experience. That kind of makes it,
- 15:44Speaker 2: you know, like a four D. Whenever you can work
- 15:48Speaker 2: that smell into the equation, then, uh, you know, that
- 15:52Speaker 2: adds something to it that makes it a little bit special,
- 15:55Speaker 2: doesn't it. Today's show brought to you by Columbus State

- 18:36Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking

- 18:48Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor, you know, if you like

- 19:22Speaker 2: after the break Well, lots of people dream about not
- 19:33Speaker 2: having to work being able to travel the world. So
- 19:35Speaker 2: how much money would you need to actually take that leap?
- 19:40Speaker 2: According to a new survey, the average American would quit
- 19:42Speaker 2: their job and travel the world if they had about
- 19:45Speaker 2: two hundred and ninety thousand dollars in the bank. The
- 19:48Speaker 2: amount changes a bit by age gen Z would take
- 19:51Speaker 2: off for two hundred eleven thousand dollars. Boomers want at
- 19:54Speaker 2: least three hundred and thirty five thousand dollars, and about
- 19:57Speaker 2: thirty three percent of respondents said they would need over
- 20:00Speaker 2: five hundred grand to give up their jobs to travel.
- 20:04Speaker 2: The survey also asked respondents what they would do if
- 20:07Speaker 2: they were given a million dollars to spend on travel,
- 20:09Speaker 2: The top response was taking their family and friends on
- 20:12Speaker 2: a dream vacation. What would they do on that dream vacation?
- 20:17Speaker 2: Explore famous landmarks and wonders of the world, take an
- 20:19Speaker 2: epic road trip, and have bucket list experiences and adventures.
- 20:24Speaker 2: Those are among the more popular answers. That's nice, It
- 20:28Speaker 2: would be nice. I would like to think, you know
- 20:32Speaker 2: that if I were chosen by God to just you know,
- 20:36Speaker 2: win the lottery, I'd be able to do that. That'd
- 20:39Speaker 2: be nice. Take family and friends and go, you know,
- 20:42Speaker 2: check some bucket list items. That would be great. Many
- 20:46Speaker 2: couples have weddings where kids aren't invited, but one couple
- 20:49Speaker 2: decided to take that to a bit of an extreme,
- 20:54Speaker 2: only inviting people who don't have children at all.
- 20:58Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 20:59Speaker 2: This came from Reddit's wedding forum. It says, I understand
- 21:06Speaker 2: having a child free wedding, but I feel like excluding
- 21:09Speaker 2: family like this is a bit extreme. One family member posted,
- 21:13Speaker 2: my extended family is very upset and most of them
- 21:16Speaker 2: are svping no because of it. Yeah, then it becomes
- 21:23Speaker 2: parent free. As someone points out, it's not that it's
- 21:26Speaker 2: child free because you could have parents there that don't
- 21:29Speaker 2: bring the children. But if you're excluding parents from it,
- 21:33Speaker 2: it's a weird take on the whole thing. And I
- 21:36Speaker 2: guess you're basically saying I don't trust you to not
- 21:38Speaker 2: bring your kids, or I don't want all of your
- 21:40Speaker 2: kid dramas. I mean, it's your wedding. You do what
- 21:43Speaker 2: you want to do, just don't be surprised when people
- 21:45Speaker 2: don't show up. If you're a lady and you're looking
- 21:49Speaker 2: for love, where you live could make a difference. A
- 21:51Speaker 2: new wallet hub study compared the fifty states using key
- 21:56Speaker 2: indicators of dating friendliness including number of single adults, ratio
- 22:00Speaker 2: of singles, online dating opportunities, median household income, restaurants per capita,
- 22:06Speaker 2: and some other stats. And according to the research, the
- 22:10Speaker 2: best state for singles is Florida, New York, California, Texas,
- 22:17Speaker 2: and Illinois rounding out the top five. Georgia comes in
- 22:24Speaker 2: at number twelve on the list. Just looking around for
- 22:28Speaker 2: Southeast state's Louisiana at twenty seven, Tennessee at twenty six,
- 22:34Speaker 2: Alabama's at thirty one, South Carolina forty two North Carolina
- 22:40Speaker 2: would be higher than some of these, but oh there
- 22:46Speaker 2: it is number sixteen. So anyway, just taking le but
- 22:49Speaker 2: Florida at the top of the list. I don't think
- 22:51Speaker 2: that's a big surprise. I don't think it's a big
- 22:54Speaker 2: surprise at all. Seems like a good state for, you know,
- 22:57Speaker 2: meeting somebody, so it's a there's a lot of positivity
- 23:01Speaker 2: in the state of Florida. We all know public restrooms
- 23:03Speaker 2: are pretty disgusting, but this will make you think twice
- 23:06Speaker 2: before using one. Research shows that when you flush a toilet,
- 23:10Speaker 2: it sends bacteria filled water droplets flying through the air.
- 23:13Speaker 2: What's worse, if you flush a second time, it sends
- 23:16Speaker 2: even more bacteria in the air. The droplets are tiny
- 23:20Speaker 2: enough to travel deep into your lungs. According to the study,
- 23:23Speaker 2: good ventilation can cut the wrists by more than half.
- 23:26Speaker 2: So next time you're in a public restroom, look for
- 23:30Speaker 2: a well ventilated stall and maybe wait a few seconds
- 23:33Speaker 2: after someone flushes before taking deep breath. That's good advice, Nobody,
- 23:37Speaker 2: you don't walk into a public bathroom and go that's
- 23:40Speaker 2: not a good idea anyway. Hey, that'll do it for
