Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews you need to start
0:05
Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to The West Carrol Morning Show.
0:10
Speaker 2: Monday morning, twenty seventh day of January. I'm Wes, Thanks
0:15
Speaker 2: for joining me. I have said multiple times in the
0:21
Speaker 2: last couple of shows that we're kind of trying to
0:25
Speaker 2: get back to normal after the storms. And I say storms.
0:31
Speaker 2: The storm is what it was. It was a snow event,
0:36
Speaker 2: a winter weathery alert whatever it's called, winter weather alert,
0:41
Speaker 2: wintery weather alert. I said it backwards, you know what
0:44
Speaker 2: I mean. We had a lot of snow after the
0:46
Speaker 2: rain we just got last night. I guess the snow
0:51
Speaker 2: should be gone. We're seeing some much warmer temperatures. And
0:57
Speaker 2: that's and like I said before, we don't do a
0:59
Speaker 2: lot of weather talk here on the show, but that
1:01
Speaker 2: was a pretty significant event for us in the Southeast.
1:06
Speaker 2: And I guess there's a couple of models showing that
1:08
Speaker 2: we could have another significant dip down at some point
1:12
Speaker 2: before winter's over. We'll see if that actually happens. They're
1:16
Speaker 2: not expecting necessarily anything close to like what we just got.
1:20
Speaker 2: That's a pretty rare event. Seven years since the last
1:23
Speaker 2: snow of that significance for the area. And as I said,
1:28
Speaker 2: you get the rain and the warmer temperatures, and all
1:31
Speaker 2: the snow that's kind of been hiding in little spots
1:34
Speaker 2: here and there had survived a bit through last night.
1:39
Speaker 2: I haven't actually checked on our snowmen this morning, but
1:42
Speaker 2: I'm sure they're long gone, but they'll be back again someday,
1:45
Speaker 2: as the story goes. They were looking pretty rough. They
1:50
Speaker 2: were looking like they've been on ozempic last night, so
1:54
Speaker 2: I don't know what their current status is. I haven't
1:56
Speaker 2: checked on them this morning, so we'll see if they
2:00
Speaker 2: managed to dodge the rain. I don't They're not in
2:02
Speaker 2: a place where they would dodge the rain. They've dodged
2:05
Speaker 2: a lot of sunlight, but not really a lot of rain.
2:08
Speaker 2: I'm assuming so so. And we're going to talk more
2:13
Speaker 2: on the Super Bowl in the in the coming weeks.
2:15
Speaker 2: There's plenty of time to deep dive into all of that.
2:19
Speaker 2: As a New York Giants fan, it's hard for me
2:24
Speaker 2: in a number of ways, for a number of reasons,
2:27
Speaker 2: to accept the fact that Saquon Barkley has had this
2:31
Speaker 2: incredible year that he's had. Now that he's with the
2:34
Speaker 2: Eagles and is now going to be running in the
2:37
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, and it just one of those things. I
2:43
Speaker 2: can't tell you that as a just a sports observer,
2:49
Speaker 2: right someone who has coached soccer at the youth level,
2:55
Speaker 2: someone who has coached tennis at the youth level, and
2:59
Speaker 2: who has been a lifelong fan of a number of
3:01
Speaker 2: sports and watched a lot of football college and pro.
3:05
Speaker 2: The games are different now. I don't particularly care too
3:08
Speaker 2: much for the games anymore, college or pro. It's because
3:12
Speaker 2: it's a whole different beast and that's not what the
3:15
Speaker 2: show is really about today. But I can tell you,
3:18
Speaker 2: just as the casual observer and the fan of the
3:22
Speaker 2: New York Giants since childhood, I felt like running backs
3:29
Speaker 2: have an expiration date. Most of them do. Most of
3:32
Speaker 2: them don't have long careers at the position. Barkley was
3:35
Speaker 2: with the Giants for a while. I don't think he
3:38
Speaker 2: obviously didn't see his full potential while playing there, but
3:44
Speaker 2: he went to a team Ultimately, when the Giants decided
3:47
Speaker 2: not to sign him again, not knowing what his shelf
3:50
Speaker 2: life was that was left and not putting that franchise
3:54
Speaker 2: tag on him, they let him go. He went to
3:57
Speaker 2: a rival team, which, of course means he's dead to me.
4:00
Speaker 2: But a team with a great offensive line and a
4:03
Speaker 2: lot of weapons built around it, and he's done incredible.
4:08
Speaker 2: He's done, you know, a just outstanding year, almost record
4:13
Speaker 2: breaking year, record, some records broken. I guess he didn't
4:16
Speaker 2: quite get to the record for the season because he
4:19
Speaker 2: didn't play in the last game. Good for him. I'm
4:23
Speaker 2: not excited for him. I hope he loses in the
4:25
Speaker 2: Super Bowl. I mean, that's the only thing that I
4:28
Speaker 2: can say as a Giants fan. This was a bad
4:31
Speaker 2: situation to be in with the Eagles and Commanders aka
4:36
Speaker 2: what my family refers to as the fred Skins. And
4:41
Speaker 2: I can say that because I'm the person who first
4:44
Speaker 2: proposed that they changed the name of the team to
4:48
Speaker 2: the Washington Football team. Back when they did that, I
4:51
Speaker 2: did it as a joke, and then it happened, and
4:53
Speaker 2: I thought, man, I wasted a wish on that. What
4:56
Speaker 2: a dumb thing to waste a wish on. Anyway, But
4:59
Speaker 2: more we'll talk more on all of that as we
5:02
Speaker 2: get closer to the Super Bowl. So what I wanted
5:05
Speaker 2: to talk about today, besides the weather and besides the
5:12
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkleay deal, I just want to spit, and there's
5:15
Speaker 2: nowhere to spit in the room, but I want to spit.
5:17
Speaker 2: It just makes me mad. But that's the way it
5:20
Speaker 2: goes in sports sometimes when you're really passionate about a team.
5:22
Speaker 2: I don't know how many kids these days are going
5:24
Speaker 2: to be passionate about teams. Their their loyalties go with
5:28
Speaker 2: whoever's winning. I know that's been the case for a
5:30
Speaker 2: long time. But now that you know, college is kind
5:34
Speaker 2: of is all about, Okay, well I'm gonna be a
5:36
Speaker 2: free agent. I'm going to go somewhere else and play,
5:39
Speaker 2: and it's all about this nil money and it's just
5:43
Speaker 2: it's ridiculous. And and don't even get me started on
5:47
Speaker 2: on Patrick Mahomes and some of the calls this year.
5:51
Speaker 2: But that's that's also a topic to dive in deeper.
5:54
Speaker 2: What I want to talk about today, though, is the
5:58
Speaker 2: UHI has been busy. He had a busy week last week,
6:04
Speaker 2: he had a busy weekend. He got some of his
6:07
Speaker 2: picks for cabinet positions approved. That is, even the pete
6:12
Speaker 2: hegset thing I didn't know, I mean, I felt like
6:15
Speaker 2: it should go through. It took the Vice President to
6:21
Speaker 2: cast the deciding vote. It was a tie and he
6:24
Speaker 2: was the tiebreaker. So that's done. And now Pete Hegseth
6:30
Speaker 2: Secretary of Defense. He's already made it very clear this
6:35
Speaker 2: DEI stuff is not going to be part of his
6:39
Speaker 2: time running the Defense Department. And you know, it's kind
6:46
Speaker 2: of a weird place to be in. We went from
6:49
Speaker 2: this Trump presidency that you know, back at starting in
6:54
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen when he took office and so eight years ago,
6:58
Speaker 2: and it started with him just you know, similar to
7:03
Speaker 2: what he's doing now. He was just knocking off things
7:06
Speaker 2: that he had promised, campaign promises, things that he said,
7:09
Speaker 2: this is what I'm going to do when I win,
7:12
Speaker 2: and that's what he did. And he was just knocking
7:15
Speaker 2: him down. Man. It was just one thing after the next.
7:17
Speaker 2: He was I said I'll do this, I'll do that.
7:19
Speaker 2: We're going to get this wall started, We're going to
7:21
Speaker 2: do this. And there were a number of very quick
7:24
Speaker 2: changes that came. And people are they get critical about
7:29
Speaker 2: the executive orders. They used to be. They were critical
7:31
Speaker 2: of him with how many executive orders that he had,
7:34
Speaker 2: but a lot of his executive orders eight years ago
7:37
Speaker 2: were the undoing of some of Obama's executive orders and
7:41
Speaker 2: if you remember, he you know, I've got a phone
7:43
Speaker 2: and a pen, and I could do this, and that's
7:46
Speaker 2: what he did. He had his phone in his pen.
7:48
Speaker 2: It was a little too country for Obama, but you
7:50
Speaker 2: got the idea. But he, uh, it was undoing those
7:55
Speaker 2: when he was taking office. That for time. That was
8:00
Speaker 2: what a lot of it was. And then also a
8:02
Speaker 2: lot of movement on the things that he promised that
8:05
Speaker 2: he would do so and back then it was just
8:10
Speaker 2: a lot of hate. It was a lot of vitriol.
8:13
Speaker 2: It was, you know, the country that did not want
8:17
Speaker 2: him to be president largely was rooted in how dare
8:22
Speaker 2: he win? I mean, if you remember, this was a
8:26
Speaker 2: candidate that not everybody took seriously, me included. I just
8:31
Speaker 2: didn't I didn't think. I didn't know that he really
8:34
Speaker 2: wanted to win. I didn't know that he wanted the job.
8:37
Speaker 2: I didn't know that he was really, you know, putting
8:41
Speaker 2: in the effort to win. I really just kind of
8:44
Speaker 2: thought this was all just a big spectacle and it
8:46
Speaker 2: would end, you know, like a Super Bowl ad within
8:48
Speaker 2: the new season of The Apprentice is coming or whatever.
8:51
Speaker 2: I didn't know, I had no idea. I didn't know
8:54
Speaker 2: what to expect. I knew Donald Trump the celebrity so
8:59
Speaker 2: many years. That's all a lot of people were. But
9:02
Speaker 2: I had friends in my life. I had people in
9:04
Speaker 2: my circle that were like, you don't understand. He's serious
9:08
Speaker 2: and he's going to win. And I said, well, we'll see,
9:12
Speaker 2: we'll see. And I knew this is the candidate that
9:16
Speaker 2: Hillary wanted to run against. This is the person that
9:19
Speaker 2: Hillary thought I can beat him. Let's help him be
9:21
Speaker 2: the nominee and then it'll be easy. And then he
9:24
Speaker 2: dared to win. And then that's where it started. It
9:26
Speaker 2: started with just a lot of angry people calling him
9:29
Speaker 2: racist and hateful and all these things, because how dare
9:33
Speaker 2: he not just let her have her coronation. That's what
9:36
Speaker 2: they were expecting, and that's what she was expecting, and
9:39
Speaker 2: that's not how it went. So then you get through
9:43
Speaker 2: three really good years fiscally for the country. Things were
9:48
Speaker 2: going well. I talk to friends around the world. I
9:53
Speaker 2: have friends that work in jobs directly related to or
9:56
Speaker 2: are specifically in finance around the world, and they said,
10:02
Speaker 2: we hear the news reports. Our news comes from your news,
10:06
Speaker 2: and we hear all the bad stuff. We're not hearing
10:08
Speaker 2: the positive stuff. We hear the bad stuff, but I
10:11
Speaker 2: can tell you financially, when America does well, we do well.
10:15
Speaker 2: We're doing well, so we know you guys are doing well.
10:18
Speaker 2: And I said, yeah, yes, that's where we are. And
10:23
Speaker 2: then COVID happened, and we know how that all played out.
10:26
Speaker 2: We'll get more to COVID in just a minute. But
10:30
Speaker 2: then it became the opportunity to let's run this campaign.
10:33
Speaker 2: We're gonna do whatever we got to do to get
10:35
Speaker 2: rid of him because we hate him. We're going to
10:37
Speaker 2: run him out of here. We're gonna get rid of him.
10:39
Speaker 2: And then they pulled it off, and then they did
10:41
Speaker 2: everything they could to make sure he couldn't run again.
10:43
Speaker 2: They wanted him eliminated from contention. Moving forward, he pulls
10:47
Speaker 2: this incredible comeback. Now. I think after we went through
10:52
Speaker 2: four years of people now questioning the things that we
10:55
Speaker 2: should have maybe been questioning all along, and for some
10:57
Speaker 2: reason we did not talked on this show at great
11:01
Speaker 2: length about you've got to be able to trust science.
11:04
Speaker 2: You've got to be able to trust medicine. You've got
11:08
Speaker 2: to be able to trust your media. You've got to
11:10
Speaker 2: be able to trust to some degree your government, even
11:13
Speaker 2: though you probably shouldn't and you probably won't, but you've
11:17
Speaker 2: got to have some element of that. And there's more,
11:20
Speaker 2: but those are just a few of the things that
11:22
Speaker 2: you need to be able to trust. And we know
11:24
Speaker 2: where we are with media, we know where we've been
11:26
Speaker 2: with government, we know where we've been with this notion
11:28
Speaker 2: of deep state. We know what we just went through
11:31
Speaker 2: with COVID, and that was science and medicine. When people
11:35
Speaker 2: tell us we're all going to be dead in five
11:38
Speaker 2: or it's always twelve years, it's not five twelve years.
11:40
Speaker 2: We're going to be dead from climate change formerly global warming,
11:44
Speaker 2: now climate change, We're going to all be dead in
11:46
Speaker 2: twelve years, and then we're not dead in twelve years.
11:51
Speaker 2: And it's like, well, I thought we were all supposed
11:53
Speaker 2: to be dead at this point, and no, that's not
11:58
Speaker 2: how it panned out. So you're being the end of
12:01
Speaker 2: the world climate alarmist, and we're supposed to believe you
12:05
Speaker 2: when we're supposed to trust you, but you're basically just
12:09
Speaker 2: kind of telling us what you want us to hear
12:12
Speaker 2: and what you want us to believe so that you
12:15
Speaker 2: will continue to get your funding because you know the
12:18
Speaker 2: world's going to end. Nobody wants the world to end.
12:21
Speaker 2: We all want to leave a world for our children
12:23
Speaker 2: and our grandkids and great grandkids and everybody else. We
12:28
Speaker 2: want to leave something for them. We want to leave
12:30
Speaker 2: a planet for them. But if we don't recycle and
12:33
Speaker 2: do all the things that they're telling us to do,
12:35
Speaker 2: stop with gas stoves, then there's no way possible for
12:39
Speaker 2: us to be able to do that. So that's that's
12:43
Speaker 2: a lot of people that kind of some buy it
12:45
Speaker 2: completely and some people say, I don't know, this is
12:48
Speaker 2: hard to believe after you've told us ten times. So
12:52
Speaker 2: let's jump into we're going to talk about COVID for
12:55
Speaker 2: a second, because we do have a new head of
12:57
Speaker 2: the CIA, as the newly confirmed director of the CIA,
13:03
Speaker 2: John Ratcliffe, over the weekend talked on Sunday Morning Futures
13:10
Speaker 2: on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo, and here's what he
13:15
Speaker 2: had to say about taking a look at some of
13:18
Speaker 2: this studies done about COVID. He says, I had the
13:23
Speaker 2: opportunity on our first day to make a public assessment
13:25
Speaker 2: that actually took place in the Biden administration, so I
13:29
Speaker 2: can't be accused of being political. And the CIA has
13:32
Speaker 2: assessed that the most likely cause of this pandemic that
13:37
Speaker 2: has wrought so much devastation around the world was because
13:40
Speaker 2: of a lab related incident in Wuhan. So we'll continue
13:44
Speaker 2: to investigate that moving forward, and he says, I think
13:48
Speaker 2: it's important for the people to see an institution like
13:51
Speaker 2: the CIA get off the sidelines and be truthful about
13:54
Speaker 2: what our intelligence shows and at the same time protect
13:58
Speaker 2: us from our adversaries if they caused or contributed to this,
14:06
Speaker 2: and he says He went on to say or this
14:11
Speaker 2: is a spokesperson for the CIA saying that the agency
14:15
Speaker 2: assesses with low confidence that a research this is what
14:19
Speaker 2: we were told that a research related origin of the
14:22
Speaker 2: COVID nineteen pandemic is more likely than natural origin based
14:27
Speaker 2: on the availability body of reporting. CIA continues to assess
14:33
Speaker 2: both research related to natural origin scenarios of the COVID
14:35
Speaker 2: nineteen pandemic remained plausible, and we have low confidence in
14:42
Speaker 2: this judgment and will continue to evaluate any available, credible,
14:45
Speaker 2: new intelligence reporting or open source information that could change
14:49
Speaker 2: the CIA's assessment. That's what we were told, but that's
14:53
Speaker 2: not what the assessment was that they had. So Ratcliffe
14:57
Speaker 2: is making this available to us now. So a couple
15:02
Speaker 2: of things there, and this is not necessarily in the
15:05
Speaker 2: spirit of you know, fully trusting the government necessarily, but
15:11
Speaker 2: this is a big step in that direction. If the
15:13
Speaker 2: CIA or the Justice Department or staying like going back
15:21
Speaker 2: to trying to at least seem neutral and Ratcliffe's statement
15:27
Speaker 2: there is you know, this isn't political. This is coming
15:29
Speaker 2: from something that an assessment that was done in the
15:33
Speaker 2: previous administration. So yes, and that's important to make sure
15:40
Speaker 2: that that's very clear. But if the assessment is there,
15:44
Speaker 2: and then this was likely lab leaked and that yes,
15:47
Speaker 2: it was likely. See this is what makes me start
15:50
Speaker 2: wondering about these pardons of people like Anthony Fauci, preemptively
15:56
Speaker 2: pardoning him for something that he hasn't been charged with,
15:58
Speaker 2: pardoning him from something that there have been no credible
16:04
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe there's a few people who maybe
16:06
Speaker 2: you got, you know, Rand Paul and others that say, hey,
16:09
Speaker 2: we're going to come after him. So maybe there are
16:11
Speaker 2: some credible threats to actually go after him. But I
16:16
Speaker 2: don't know that we've got necessarily a need to part.
16:21
Speaker 2: We don't have enough information ahead of time to say
16:23
Speaker 2: we have to pardon this guy for something that he
16:25
Speaker 2: supposedly never did wrong. But as they start digging into
16:29
Speaker 2: some of these things, they're looking into this Trump assigned
16:32
Speaker 2: the over to declassify the MLK assassination, the RFK, RFK
16:43
Speaker 2: Senior assassination, JFK assassination. They're going to start digging, they're
16:48
Speaker 2: going to start looking into things, and this is one
16:50
Speaker 2: of those things that could start giving a little bit
16:52
Speaker 2: of chance for people to get some trust back in government. Right,
17:00
Speaker 2: you gotta have it. You gotta believe what they're telling you.
17:04
Speaker 2: You gotta be able to believe it. And when they're
17:07
Speaker 2: telling us now, they came from a bat. It came
17:10
Speaker 2: from some bat soup somewhere. That was the initial report,
17:15
Speaker 2: and that's what we were given, and that's all that
17:17
Speaker 2: we were given. And it never sounded right. It always
17:20
Speaker 2: sounded fishy, right, And now it's certainly all indications are
17:27
Speaker 2: and we had gotten hints that this report was there,
17:31
Speaker 2: but not the official clarification from the new head of
17:35
Speaker 2: the CIA. It's going to be interesting as all these
17:37
Speaker 2: stones start to get turned and we start to get
17:39
Speaker 2: a little bit better idea of what exactly has been
17:43
Speaker 2: going on for the last four years. Today's show brought
17:45
Speaker 2: to you by Columbus State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center,
17:49
Speaker 2: inspiring and educating the youth and future STEM leaders and
17:55
Speaker 2: STEM career holders that really of all ages. I mean
18:00
Speaker 2: they do it for school age kids as school age
18:03
Speaker 2: kids visit the Coca Cola Space Science Center, but they
18:05
Speaker 2: also do it through their university programs where you can
18:08
Speaker 2: learn engineering, astronomy, physics, and the careers in space and
18:14
Speaker 2: STEM fields are booming right now. And you can learn
18:18
Speaker 2: more about maybe getting your degree on their website CCSSC
18:24
Speaker 2: dot org. While you're there, also check out some of
18:28
Speaker 2: their upcoming programs. They've got this incredible collaboration that they
18:33
Speaker 2: do with the Schwobe School of Music from Columbus State
18:36
Speaker 2: University called Music under the Dome. It's unlike any concert
18:39
Speaker 2: experience that you can get anywhere else. It's one of
18:43
Speaker 2: those things that when you're watching it in Columbus, Georgia,
18:45
Speaker 2: you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia. I mean,
18:48
Speaker 2: this is a major city attraction that happens right here
18:54
Speaker 2: in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca Cola Space
18:58
Speaker 2: Science Center. And the new season of Music under the
19:01
Speaker 2: Dome check out upcoming dates for the shows, and also
19:06
Speaker 2: check out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up. Where
19:08
Speaker 2: you can get outside. Sometimes you do it at the
19:11
Speaker 2: Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere outside
19:16
Speaker 2: the city lights. You don't want any light interference, and
19:18
Speaker 2: you can do that as well. Upcoming Astronomy Night events

Speaker 2: Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by
19:38
Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage
19:41
Speaker 2: door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
19:47
Speaker 2: that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance
19:51
Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
19:54
Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
19:58
Speaker 2: care of squaring that away for you. Oh they're there.
20:01
Speaker 2: You can always ask them questions about some of the
20:03
Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
20:06
Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
20:10
Speaker 2: to be, and you need some repair work done to
20:12
Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
20:15
Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
20:18
Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
20:22
Speaker 2: issue that you've got. With colder or warmer weather, sometimes
20:26
Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
20:29
Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
20:31
Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
20:34
Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
20:38
Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
20:40
Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
20:43
Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
20:45
Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
20:47
Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
20:50
Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
20:53
Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
20:55
Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
20:58
Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
21:01
Speaker 2: as well. Seven O six thy five eight forty five

Speaker 2: O dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show. Right
21:12
Speaker 2: after the break, are you familiar with the term herkle durkle.
21:24
Speaker 2: It's a new trend on social media. It's not from
21:29
Speaker 2: Doctor Seuss. Herkle durkle, Scottish word that means to lie
21:33
Speaker 2: in bed or lounge after it's time to get up
21:37
Speaker 2: and go to work. It's not just about being lazy.
21:41
Speaker 2: The idea is that you give yourself permission for some
21:44
Speaker 2: self care and to just be so instead of hopping
21:47
Speaker 2: out of bed in the morning and starting your kind
21:49
Speaker 2: of crazy, hectic schedule. Herkle darkling is a way to
21:53
Speaker 2: reflect and be in the moment, even if just for
21:56
Speaker 2: a little while. I guess my question about this is
22:02
Speaker 2: in I think my kids certainly do this. They're a
22:05
Speaker 2: herkle durkling all of this, especially in the morning. They're
22:08
Speaker 2: probably a hercle durkling. Well, not yet, but they will
22:12
Speaker 2: be very soon. I don't know. One of them may
22:13
Speaker 2: be up at this point, one of them gets up
22:15
Speaker 2: earlier than the other one, possibly to hirkle durkle. I
22:18
Speaker 2: don't know. But can your hrcle durkle in other things? See,
22:23
Speaker 2: I'm one of those people that says, uh, we're leaving,
22:27
Speaker 2: we need to be at school. Or wherever appointment, appointment's
22:31
Speaker 2: probably better. We got a dentist appointment, right, If we
22:35
Speaker 2: just say at three o'clock, okay, and if it takes
22:38
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes to get to the dentist office, I'm ready
22:41
Speaker 2: to go twenty till. It's not hard and fast. And
22:45
Speaker 2: if it's twenty five till and I'm ready, then it's
22:47
Speaker 2: time to go. But I've got some hirkle durkling that
22:50
Speaker 2: happens in the house. I guess they just don't seem
22:53
Speaker 2: to want. Oh well, we don't need to leave until
22:54
Speaker 2: quarter two. What are you talking about? And I said, well,
22:56
Speaker 2: I'm leaving. That's the way you counter the hirkle dirk
23:00
Speaker 2: well as a dad, I guess. So anyway, if you
23:02
Speaker 2: haven't herkled rkled, maybe give it a try. Let us
23:05
Speaker 2: know what you think about the old herkle drkle. It's
23:07
Speaker 2: hard to say it a lot, it really is, all right,
23:10
Speaker 2: forget company loyalty or staying at one job and climbing
23:12
Speaker 2: the corporate corporate ladder. Workers today realizing that the only
23:16
Speaker 2: way to get to the top for your job is
23:19
Speaker 2: to do some job hopping. A report by ADP found
23:22
Speaker 2: that seventy five percent of employees leave their jobs before
23:26
Speaker 2: they can even get promoted, and that they're onto something,
23:29
Speaker 2: according to the report. The research found that less than
23:31
Speaker 2: one percent of those who stay at their job are
23:34
Speaker 2: promoted by the third year. Young workers are especially likely
23:37
Speaker 2: to leave a job in order to get ahead. Eighty
23:39
Speaker 2: three percent of gen Z workers consider themselves to be
23:42
Speaker 2: job hoppers, according to a report from Resume Lab. And
23:47
Speaker 2: I think this is true for most jobs. It depends
23:52
Speaker 2: probably the size of the company, because I think if
23:54
Speaker 2: you're working maybe for like an individual that maybe owns company,
24:00
Speaker 2: I think things might be a little bit different. You're
24:02
Speaker 2: getting a little bit different perspective on it. But when
24:05
Speaker 2: you're working for a large company, it's very easy to
24:07
Speaker 2: get lost in the shuffle, very easy. And I think
24:10
Speaker 2: that's part of it. You get their attention when you say, hey,
24:12
Speaker 2: somebody else wants me, I'm going to go there and then.
24:16
Speaker 2: And I've got friends who've successfully pulled the like back
24:19
Speaker 2: and forth a few times. I guess it's like changing
24:22
Speaker 2: your you know, Internet or changing your phone. You know,
24:27
Speaker 2: you got your phone plan. Phone plans are like really
24:30
Speaker 2: bad about the Oh, you've been a loyal customer, but
24:33
Speaker 2: you're not a new customer, and that happens sometimes, so
24:37
Speaker 2: some people do the hop around. But anyway, by the way,
24:40
Speaker 2: my internet and my phone have been very good to
24:42
Speaker 2: me over the years, so no hopping for me on
24:44
Speaker 2: either one of those, all right. Researchers at Penn State
24:48
Speaker 2: University have developed an electronic tongue that can monitor food freshness.
24:53
Speaker 2: The device uses super thin sensors and artificial intelligence to
24:57
Speaker 2: detect food spoilage, fraud, and contamination in minutes. It's a
25:03
Speaker 2: high tech tongue that works just like our own. It
25:05
Speaker 2: sends signals to an AI brain that can distinguish between
25:08
Speaker 2: different liquids with more than ninety seven percent accuracy. It's
25:15
Speaker 2: a tongue, that's what it is. It's a tongue and
25:20
Speaker 2: you let it taste your food ahead of time, and
25:25
Speaker 2: it can tell you it's the milk bead, it's the
25:27
Speaker 2: sour cream sour, it's the cheese funky. It can tell
25:30
Speaker 2: you all of those things without you having to subject
25:32
Speaker 2: yourself to it, So there you go. A survey found
25:37
Speaker 2: that one in seven Americans have been eating the same
25:40
Speaker 2: type of pizza for the last five years, and the
25:42
Speaker 2: average American hasn't changed their pizza order in two years.
25:46
Speaker 2: According to the survey, Pepperoni the most popular pizza, with
25:49
Speaker 2: twenty states preferring it right behind it Meat Lover's pizza
25:53
Speaker 2: favored in eighteen states. Are you one of those people
25:55
Speaker 2: that sticks? I'm like that with almost all my food.
25:58
Speaker 2: If I go somewhere, and it's somewhere that I regularly go,
26:02
Speaker 2: it's probably the same thing that I'm going to order
26:04
Speaker 2: every time. My favorite restaurant, Cafe Amichi, we even ask
26:11
Speaker 2: for the same waitress every time because we don't have
26:12
Speaker 2: to order. She knows what we want. We just sit
26:15
Speaker 2: down and our food comes. It's that simple. And if
26:18
Speaker 2: we want to change the order, we have to let
26:20
Speaker 2: her know right away we need to make a small
26:23
Speaker 2: change to it, but typically don't even have to tell
26:26
Speaker 2: her what it is. Food's just brought out. We're good
26:30
Speaker 2: to go. That'll do it for this Monday edition of
26:32
Speaker 2: the show. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons. Thank you
26:36
