Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews you need to start
- 0:05Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Wednesday morning, twenty six, day of March. I'm Wes, thanks
- 0:15Speaker 2: for joining me. We learned a lot about this app
- 0:20Speaker 2: called Signal, Right, we learned a lot about Signal in
- 0:24Speaker 2: the last couple of days. We know, and this is
- 0:29Speaker 2: one of those fluid stories. I know that there's going
- 0:31Speaker 2: to be continue to be some investigations that go into
- 0:35Speaker 2: all of this, and possibilities I guess of things that
- 0:40Speaker 2: could change in time. I know yesterday the President was
- 0:44Speaker 2: saying he has no plans to make any changes with
- 0:49Speaker 2: Mike Waltz, who was part of the National Security Advisor,
- 0:55Speaker 2: who's part of this whole thing. The guy who apparently
- 0:58Speaker 2: one of the people who work for him added a
- 1:02Speaker 2: journalist to this Signal Chat, which is a closed private
- 1:09Speaker 2: group for correspondence, you know, with extra security features to
- 1:14Speaker 2: it so that conversations could be had securely with people.
- 1:19Speaker 2: And adding obviously a journalist into the mix on conversations
- 1:23Speaker 2: about pending strikes and things is reason to be concerned.
- 1:29Speaker 2: You know, there's I think this is an administration who said, yes,
- 1:35Speaker 2: this is not what we intended to do. We know
- 1:39Speaker 2: the person who is responsible for it. We know the
- 1:44Speaker 2: person that that person worked for, who is taking some
- 1:48Speaker 2: share of responsibility for it and has explained it, and
- 1:52Speaker 2: that person now understands that this is something that we
- 1:56Speaker 2: have to be aware of and that we have to
- 1:58Speaker 2: make sure doesn't happen again. No vital, critical information was
- 2:02Speaker 2: released that put any soldiers in danger, So we move forward.
- 2:07Speaker 2: Lesson learned. The left not so much. They say that
- 2:10Speaker 2: this is horrible. It put soldiers in danger, and you
- 2:14Speaker 2: had lots of ramifications of incompetence. They say that Waltz
- 2:19Speaker 2: and heg Seth Pete hegg Seth, the Secretary of Defense,
- 2:24Speaker 2: should both resign. Well, of course they do. Walts wasn't
- 2:28Speaker 2: necessarily someone that they had a major issue with. Waltz
- 2:32Speaker 2: actually is respected among many. Heg Seth, of course, was
- 2:36Speaker 2: a contentious pick for to run the Defense Department, and
- 2:42Speaker 2: Democrats don't like him. They don't like the fact that
- 2:44Speaker 2: he was on Fox News. They don't really, I guess,
- 2:47Speaker 2: acknowledge his long and storied career in the military, and
- 2:55Speaker 2: they didn't want him in anyway. They didn't want him
- 2:58Speaker 2: to be in this role so the Trump administration says,
- 3:03Speaker 2: moving forward, and this is not something that is going
- 3:06Speaker 2: to cause those to resign in any way, and they
- 3:10Speaker 2: move forward. But this is an actual genuine concern in
- 3:16Speaker 2: the administration, unlike some of the other red flags that
- 3:20Speaker 2: we've seen go up about various things that weren't concerning.
- 3:25Speaker 2: Is this a you know, major major issue. I guess
- 3:33Speaker 2: it remains to be seen if it continues to be
- 3:36Speaker 2: a problem, if it comes up again, if another journalist
- 3:39Speaker 2: accidentally gets added to another thread, especially one that is
- 3:44Speaker 2: definitely going to make sure everybody knows about it, as
- 3:47Speaker 2: was the case this time, then yeah, then certainly this
- 3:53Speaker 2: could be a bigger problem if it continues on. But
- 3:57Speaker 2: at this point, is it or is this trying to
- 4:00Speaker 2: make it into a bigger problem just because a they
- 4:03Speaker 2: don't like Trump, but they don't like hegseeth And of
- 4:06Speaker 2: course where before they didn't seem to have issues with
- 4:11Speaker 2: with Mike Waltz, now they seem to so. And I'll
- 4:15Speaker 2: just as a disclosure, I've interviewed Mike Waltz in the past.
- 4:19Speaker 2: Uh and he you know, seems like a nice guy,
- 4:22Speaker 2: seems sharp, new knew the topics, knew what we discussed.
- 4:26Speaker 2: I was able to handle any questions I had for him. So, uh,
- 4:30Speaker 2: that's my experience with him. Nothing about him came across
- 4:34Speaker 2: as incompetent, and I think, uh, this is like one
- 4:37Speaker 2: of those things. And I understand this is certainly more
- 4:40Speaker 2: serious than than this, but I just feel like when
- 4:44Speaker 2: you work for, you know, a PR firm, or you
- 4:46Speaker 2: work for a marketing company and something gets sent out
- 4:50Speaker 2: with a typo in it and ends up on a
- 4:51Speaker 2: billboard or ends up costing a lot of money to
- 4:56Speaker 2: fix it on a billboard, Obviously to that company, that's
- 5:00Speaker 2: a big deal, right, and it's a big deal to
- 5:04Speaker 2: the client involved. It's a big deal. Uh until it's fixed.
- 5:10Speaker 2: And when the problem is fixed, then you move on.
- 5:13Speaker 2: And I get why there's there's more at stake when
- 5:17Speaker 2: it comes to military operations being disclosed. I'm not I'm
- 5:20Speaker 2: not in any way diminishing that. I'm just pointing out
- 5:23Speaker 2: the fact that they understand the problem and they're moving
- 5:27Speaker 2: forward with it. They're they're doing the necessary steps to
- 5:31Speaker 2: make sure it doesn't happen again. That's their promise to us,
- 5:35Speaker 2: and that should be enough at this point, unless, of course,
- 5:39Speaker 2: you're just being obstinate for the sake of being obstinate
- 5:43Speaker 2: on to other things. Uh, this resistance movement continues on
- 5:49Speaker 2: as we basically UH move forward with UH. We have
- 5:57Speaker 2: the dosing, we have the obviously the attacks on Tesla,
- 6:02Speaker 2: the threats on lives. We're back to the point where
- 6:06Speaker 2: we're seeing video of people going after people wearing Trump
- 6:10Speaker 2: Maga hats in certain cities. First of all, I realize
- 6:16Speaker 2: this is a different country in twenty twenty five than
- 6:20Speaker 2: it was one year ago. It's definitely a different country
- 6:23Speaker 2: than it was five years ago. Okay, just as far
- 6:27Speaker 2: as the attitude towards Trump and the Trump administration, and
- 6:32Speaker 2: it can lull you into a sense that maybe a
- 6:36Speaker 2: lot of Americans get it now, and there are more
- 6:40Speaker 2: that get it now than there were five years ago
- 6:44Speaker 2: than there were two years ago, a year ago. But
- 6:48Speaker 2: don't let that lull you into a false sense of
- 6:50Speaker 2: security that we don't still have crazies out there that
- 6:54Speaker 2: are hell bent on hurting you, injuring you, damaging your property,
- 7:02Speaker 2: even killing you. Because this is what they're being encouraged
- 7:08Speaker 2: to do verbally. And we're playing this game where when
- 7:12Speaker 2: one side says something, we pretend that it's significantly worse
- 7:20Speaker 2: than what we all know the intention was. And then
- 7:23Speaker 2: when the other side says it, and now, of course
- 7:25Speaker 2: that's the right, and then on the other side says
- 7:27Speaker 2: it on the left, we're supposed to take it literally
- 7:30Speaker 2: at their word and not read into it. So during
- 7:36Speaker 2: the election, when Biden said they were targeting Trump more
- 7:41Speaker 2: right after someone had tried to kill him and shot
- 7:44Speaker 2: him in the ear, and that he needed to be
- 7:47Speaker 2: targeted more, of course, we're being told from the left
- 7:54Speaker 2: to take that. Look, he's just he's using, you know,
- 7:57Speaker 2: the terminology of you know, we got to put him
- 7:59Speaker 2: in the bulls eye. And I think he even said
- 8:01Speaker 2: that we got to put him in the bulls eye,
- 8:02Speaker 2: as in, we have to focus our energies on him
- 8:06Speaker 2: with this campaign, right, And that was just the kind
- 8:11Speaker 2: of campaign, and that's probably what he meant. Biden, old
- 8:15Speaker 2: school guy. He's going to use those he makes up expressions,
- 8:18Speaker 2: but he's definitely going to use expressions that are there. However,
- 8:24Speaker 2: if this were flipped and Biden had been shot in
- 8:27Speaker 2: the air and Trump said, yeah, we really got to
- 8:29Speaker 2: put the bull's eye on Biden, the left certainly would
- 8:33Speaker 2: have jumped on that. And said Trump is trying to
- 8:35Speaker 2: instigate another shooting. Now, do we have people on the
- 8:39Speaker 2: left who still think they're being asked to take shots
- 8:44Speaker 2: at Trump? We do. Do we have people on the
- 8:48Speaker 2: left who think they're still being asked to shoot you know,
- 8:51Speaker 2: people that work at healthcare companies higher up? Yes, I
- 8:55Speaker 2: think we do. We have people on the left who
- 8:57Speaker 2: think they're being asked to take shots at Elon Musk
- 9:01Speaker 2: and anybody who owns a Tesla. Yes, I think we do.
- 9:06Speaker 2: And we're starting to see more and more of this.
- 9:08Speaker 2: And obviously now when you have the FBI that's got
- 9:10Speaker 2: to get involved and put a task force together to
- 9:12Speaker 2: try to stop people from, you know, destroying the charging
- 9:20Speaker 2: stations for green vehicles made by Tesla. You know that
- 9:26Speaker 2: we're initially praised by the left because you know, the
- 9:31Speaker 2: climate and all, and now apparently those are and what
- 9:37Speaker 2: is the environmental ramifications by the way of destroying one
- 9:41Speaker 2: of those charging stations with charging any of those batteries
- 9:45Speaker 2: or anything, or destroying a Tesla vehicle or a bunch
- 9:49Speaker 2: of Tesla vehicles. What exactly can we put into terms
- 9:55Speaker 2: the environmental damage that would be caused by destroying all
- 10:00Speaker 2: of those batteries. I think that's something that we should
- 10:02Speaker 2: be looking into anyway. So now that we have to
- 10:05Speaker 2: have an FBI task course, we have to have the
- 10:07Speaker 2: Attorney General and Pambondi saying, you know, we're watching these people.
- 10:11Speaker 2: We're looking for any sort of coordinated attacks. We're looking
- 10:15Speaker 2: for anything that shows that it's more than just you know,
- 10:19Speaker 2: one or two people acting a certain way, and it
- 10:21Speaker 2: is more than one or two, but how many people
- 10:22Speaker 2: are acting a certain way, so the fact that energy
- 10:26Speaker 2: is having to be put into that right time and energy.
- 10:30Speaker 2: And then we've also got a few other things going
- 10:35Speaker 2: on as we're starting to see that people are being
- 10:41Speaker 2: swatted now, people deemed to be enemies of the left,
- 10:48Speaker 2: people that are perceived to be in opposition to what
- 10:54Speaker 2: Democrats have been trying to do and hoping to continue
- 10:57Speaker 2: to do. And when they realize there's not much that
- 11:03Speaker 2: they can do other than this whole thing of swatting,
- 11:08Speaker 2: Conservatives and the folks at the Blaze have put a
- 11:15Speaker 2: story together on this and basically giving accounts of people
- 11:21Speaker 2: who are having yes the swat team showing up at
- 11:24Speaker 2: their residence and kicking indoors and saying that there are
- 11:28Speaker 2: you know armed people inside and that the SWAT team
- 11:32Speaker 2: needs to show up. And this is starting to happen,
- 11:36Speaker 2: and this has happened, It's happened in the past. We
- 11:39Speaker 2: were familiar with this taking place over the last ten years,
- 11:42Speaker 2: and now apparently it's starting to happen again to people
- 11:45Speaker 2: conservative people. So imagine you're sleeping in your home. You're asleep,
- 11:50Speaker 2: and then suddenly the FBI comes in and they bust
- 11:53Speaker 2: in your door, and they've got guns pointed at your face,
- 11:56Speaker 2: and you have no idea why they're there. And the
- 11:59Speaker 2: reason that they're there is because someone has told them
- 12:01Speaker 2: that there's some sort of a kidnapping or crime in
- 12:04Speaker 2: progress there in your residence. And it's designed to disrupt
- 12:09Speaker 2: your life. It's designed to scare you. It's designed to
- 12:12Speaker 2: potentially put you in a position where you could be
- 12:15Speaker 2: shot and killed, or maybe you do something because you're
- 12:20Speaker 2: concerned about the fact that there are people with guns
- 12:23Speaker 2: coming into your home. All of these things become in play,
- 12:27Speaker 2: and it's terrorism. Blowing up Tesla charging stations is terrorism.
- 12:34Speaker 2: Attacking people that drive Tesla's is terrorism. Trying to blow
- 12:41Speaker 2: up Tesla dealerships is terrorism. This is about trying to
- 12:46Speaker 2: use fear to manipulate behavior from other people, and like
- 12:52Speaker 2: I said at the beginning, we can't let ourselves feel
- 12:55Speaker 2: like well, a lot of the country is starting to
- 12:58Speaker 2: come around on Trump because of the way the election went.
- 13:01Speaker 2: That very well may be true, but that doesn't mean
- 13:05Speaker 2: that everyone has and the more dangerous people in all
- 13:09Speaker 2: of this are the ones that you still need to
- 13:11Speaker 2: be very concerned about, and that includes the people who
- 13:17Speaker 2: like There was just this story recently about a guy
- 13:19Speaker 2: on the subway wearing a Maga hat and a woman
- 13:23Speaker 2: decided to start calling him a racist and pointing at
- 13:26Speaker 2: him and telling everyone on the train, hey, this guy
- 13:29Speaker 2: is a racist, led other people to start calling him
- 13:32Speaker 2: a racist, and then finally as he exited the train,
- 13:37Speaker 2: she started to chase him and try to take his
- 13:39Speaker 2: hat from him, and then she fell and face planted
- 13:42Speaker 2: on the ground outside, which is maybe the video is
- 13:45Speaker 2: worth it, by the way, if you want to look
- 13:47Speaker 2: it up, because you can feel the tension in all
- 13:49Speaker 2: of it before suddenly she eats it outside and his
- 13:53Speaker 2: friend with him kind of says something to her, you
- 13:55Speaker 2: can't hear him. I couldn't hear him. I couldn't make
- 13:57Speaker 2: it out, and then they of course run away. But
- 14:02Speaker 2: the fact that someone is sitting there on a train
- 14:06Speaker 2: and see someone with a hat and they're incapable of
- 14:10Speaker 2: just ignoring it. See, we're doing this thing where rather
- 14:15Speaker 2: than you know, being a person that's actively living in
- 14:20Speaker 2: a civilized society, we've decided that we have to instigate
- 14:25Speaker 2: and cause problems and ultimately try to cause some sort
- 14:28Speaker 2: of disruption in life and some sort of fear in
- 14:31Speaker 2: a person. And they don't want them to be comfortable
- 14:34Speaker 2: just wearing a hat. The first thing that we need
- 14:36Speaker 2: to remind everyone is that this is Trump's final term.
- 14:41Speaker 2: He doesn't run again. I know we've seen this story
- 14:45Speaker 2: that's been floating around. I guess Bannon stee Bannon said
- 14:51Speaker 2: Trump's gonna run again, and that got people worked up.
- 14:55Speaker 2: But in reality, he can't run again. That's not something
- 14:59Speaker 2: that is on the agenda. That's not something that's going
- 15:02Speaker 2: to happen. Just the fact that somebody said it doesn't
- 15:05Speaker 2: automatically mean it's true. And you got, you know, three
- 15:10Speaker 2: years before you even have to think about that. Now,
- 15:12Speaker 2: is Trump going to say some things to suggest that,
- 15:15Speaker 2: you know, maybe the Congress will change things where I
- 15:18Speaker 2: can run again? It doesn't mean that he won't do that,
- 15:21Speaker 2: because he probably I think he already has kind of
- 15:24Speaker 2: said little vague things like that. But what's interesting, though,
- 15:29Speaker 2: is in back to the terrorism, when people and I
- 15:33Speaker 2: noticed this on a thread for a news outlet, this
- 15:41Speaker 2: Bannon quote was posted and it led to people posting
- 15:46Speaker 2: comments about where's Luigi now? Of course, and I've said
- 15:53Speaker 2: I won't say his name, but that's the first name
- 15:54Speaker 2: of the guy who attacked and shot the CEO of
- 15:59Speaker 2: un Healthcare and killed him, murdered him in cold blood
- 16:02Speaker 2: on the street, which led people to say, hey, he
- 16:05Speaker 2: must have had some issues with that healthcare company who
- 16:08Speaker 2: wasn't taking care of claims for him to get healthcare,
- 16:13Speaker 2: and apparently he didn't even have coverage with that company.
- 16:15Speaker 2: He just saw an opportunity to murder someone, I guess,
- 16:19Speaker 2: to vent his frustration about the healthcare system. And a
- 16:23Speaker 2: lot of people decided that good for him. A lot
- 16:26Speaker 2: of people on the left decided good for him, that's
- 16:29Speaker 2: an okay thing to do, which is despicable. The fact
- 16:32Speaker 2: that anybody is quoting his name in a way to
- 16:36Speaker 2: support what he did, it's despicable and it's disgusting and
- 16:41Speaker 2: the fact that anyone is making suggestions that someone should
- 16:45Speaker 2: assassinate Donald Trump is also something that we need to
- 16:50Speaker 2: all be concerned about. And it's just a reminder. Yes,
- 16:54Speaker 2: Trump won the popular vote, Yes Trump won the electoral College.
- 16:58Speaker 2: Yes Trump is the president. Yes he was elected with
- 17:02Speaker 2: a lot of flexibility and opportunity to make changes in
- 17:06Speaker 2: the country and move us more in the right direction.
- 17:10Speaker 2: But the crazy people are still out there. And the
- 17:14Speaker 2: crazy people aren't just the people who are blowing things up.
- 17:18Speaker 2: But you got to wonder what someone's capable of. If
- 17:22Speaker 2: they're invoking the name of the United Healthcare Assassin and
- 17:30Speaker 2: discussing it in the context of the president, at what
- 17:35Speaker 2: point are they capable of crossing that line or are
- 17:39Speaker 2: they And I didn't say this, but I can tell
- 17:42Speaker 2: you this, someone I know personally made a comment similar
- 17:48Speaker 2: to this about that, and that was really disturbing to me.
- 17:52Speaker 2: So it's just a reminder. The crazy people are still
- 17:55Speaker 2: out there. The crazy people are still capable of trying
- 17:58Speaker 2: to invoke terrorism in our lives and fear, and they
- 18:02Speaker 2: don't want you to be comfortable showing your support because
- 18:06Speaker 2: as people start to say, hey, Trump's the president, he won,
- 18:09Speaker 2: he won soundly. I'm going to take the hat out,
- 18:13Speaker 2: I'm going to put it on, and I'm going to
- 18:14Speaker 2: wear it even though I live in a deep blue area,
- 18:17Speaker 2: and they should be able to do that. But it
- 18:20Speaker 2: doesn't mean there's not still crazies out there, and it
- 18:22Speaker 2: doesn't mean you're not still putting a target on yourself,
- 18:26Speaker 2: still putting a bullseye on yourself, right, remember that term.
- 18:33Speaker 2: So it doesn't mean that you're not putting yourself potentially
- 18:36Speaker 2: in some sort of danger. And it doesn't mean that
- 18:40Speaker 2: all of the country isn't it hasn't gotten their sanity
- 18:44Speaker 2: about Trump and that we don't still have some crazies
- 18:47Speaker 2: and that we aren't still not us, but somebody is
- 18:50Speaker 2: still encouraging those crazies to act. Today's show brought to
- 18:53Speaker 2: you by Colombus State Universities Coca Cola Space Science Center,
- 18:56Speaker 2: inspiring and educating the youth and future STEM leaders and
- 19:02Speaker 2: STEM career holders that really of all ages. I mean
- 19:07Speaker 2: they do it for school age kids as school age
- 19:10Speaker 2: kids visit the Coca Cola Space Science Center, but they
- 19:12Speaker 2: also do it through their university programs where you can
- 19:16Speaker 2: learn engineering, astronomy, physics, and the careers in space and
- 19:21Speaker 2: stem fields are booming right now, and you can learn
- 19:25Speaker 2: more about maybe getting your degree on their website CCSSC
- 19:31Speaker 2: dot org. While you're there, also check out some of
- 19:35Speaker 2: their upcoming programs. They've got this incredible collaboration that they
- 19:40Speaker 2: do with the Schwob School of Music from Columbus State
- 19:43Speaker 2: University called Music under the Dome. It's unlike any concert
- 19:46Speaker 2: experience that you can get anywhere else. It's one of
- 19:50Speaker 2: those things that when you're watching it in Columbus, Georgia,
- 19:52Speaker 2: you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia. I mean,
- 19:56Speaker 2: this is a major city attraction that happened right here
- 20:01Speaker 2: in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca Cola Space
- 20:05Speaker 2: Science Center and the new season of Music under the Dome.
- 20:09Speaker 2: Check out upcoming dates for the shows, and also check
- 20:13Speaker 2: out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up. Where you
- 20:16Speaker 2: can get outside. Sometimes you do it at the Cocola
- 20:19Speaker 2: Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere outside the
- 20:23Speaker 2: city lights. You don't want any light interference, and you
- 20:25Speaker 2: can do that as well. Upcoming Astronomy Night events also
- 20:29Speaker 2: on their website. It's CCSSC dot org. As Sean Crusan
- 20:33Speaker 2: says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org. I just remind
- 20:37Speaker 2: you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science Center
- 20:41Speaker 2: CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by Overhead
- 20:45Speaker 2: Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage door needs,
- 20:49Speaker 2: commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's
- 20:55Speaker 2: time for. It's always good to get maintenance on anything
- 20:59Speaker 2: that has parts the move and have electronics. The folks
- 21:02Speaker 2: at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take care of
- 21:05Speaker 2: squaring that away for you, and while they're there, you
- 21:08Speaker 2: can always ask them questions about some of the maybe
- 21:10Speaker 2: cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
- 21:13Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
- 21:17Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
- 21:19Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
- 21:22Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
- 21:25Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
- 21:29Speaker 2: issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather. Sometimes
- 21:33Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
- 21:36Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
- 21:38Speaker 2: door to your garage door. System that you can put
- 21:41Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
- 21:45Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
- 21:47Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
- 21:50Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid, you'd like to
- 21:52Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
- 21:54Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
- 21:57Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
- 22:00Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
- 22:02Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
- 22:05Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
- 22:09Speaker 2: as well. Seven six three five eight forty five hundred

- 22:19Speaker 2: the break, Well, we've heard talk that the interest in
- 22:33Speaker 2: women's sports, specifically women's basketball the WNBA has gone up
- 22:41Speaker 2: in part, certainly not a small part, due to Caitlin Clark,
- 22:45Speaker 2: where she triggered a new interest in a spike in
- 22:49Speaker 2: interest from lots of fans, male and female. But it
- 22:53Speaker 2: was kind of assumed that most of those fans were
- 22:57Speaker 2: men that finally found something about the WUNBA that they thought, well, okay,
- 23:02Speaker 2: here's here. This is going to be our player that
- 23:04Speaker 2: we're going to keep an eye on. And young girls
- 23:06Speaker 2: certainly looked up to it, even young boys looking up
- 23:09Speaker 2: to Caitlin Clark and her accomplishments. What maybe we didn't
- 23:12Speaker 2: all understand is this byproduct. You know, they talk about
- 23:16Speaker 2: ozempic face and ozimpic, you know, different plastic surgeries that
- 23:21Speaker 2: people do because of drugs like we go vi and ozempic,
- 23:27Speaker 2: and this, I guess maybe is a byproduct of all
- 23:29Speaker 2: of that. I don't know, potentially this is a byproduct
- 23:34Speaker 2: of the whole Caitlin Clark thing. But the number of
- 23:38Speaker 2: women's sports bars is set to quadruple this year, jumping
- 23:46Speaker 2: from about six to about two dozen by the end
- 23:49Speaker 2: of the year. Now, I know it's easy to go,
- 23:51Speaker 2: well six and not only about you know, two dozen,
- 23:57Speaker 2: but that is pretty significant, and that they are blaming
- 24:01Speaker 2: the rise in popularity of women's college and pro sports.
- 24:05Speaker 2: So basically, there's one called the sports Bra in Portland, Oregon,
- 24:12Speaker 2: is I guess, one of the six. And the new
- 24:16Speaker 2: women's sports bars popping up in cities big and small,
- 24:20Speaker 2: as one in New York. There's one in Omaha at
- 24:24Speaker 2: least one, and they say it's basically a place to
- 24:27Speaker 2: create a welcoming space for fans to enjoy women's sports
- 24:30Speaker 2: without having to ask for the channel to be changed. So, yeah,
- 24:35Speaker 2: women's sports bars, they focus primarily on women's sports. I'm
- 24:39Speaker 2: assuming a lot of women are the ones that are
- 24:40Speaker 2: going in there to watch, but I guess men maybe
- 24:43Speaker 2: would also go in there. I can assume. Is this
- 24:48Speaker 2: fair for me to assume that a bar that probably
- 24:50Speaker 2: has lots of women in there, inevitably men are going
- 24:54Speaker 2: to be in there. They're going to be in there
- 24:56Speaker 2: just kind of hanging around because there's lots of women
- 24:59Speaker 2: in it. That's just my assumption of basically how all
- 25:03Speaker 2: of this, how all of this would play out?
- 25:09Speaker 1: All right?
- 25:11Speaker 2: They say, you know those massage guns. You squeeze it
- 25:13Speaker 2: and it's got the little thing that kind of pounds
- 25:15Speaker 2: on the muscle and it gives you an opportunity to
- 25:18Speaker 2: get some relief. Maybe it's the massage gun. Well, they say,
- 25:22Speaker 2: according to experts, you can use it just about anywhere
- 25:25Speaker 2: on your body, but don't use it on your neck.
- 25:29Speaker 2: A video on TikTok has gone viral after the person
- 25:33Speaker 2: who posted it, Alex educated mess I guess is her name.
- 25:40Speaker 2: I was trying to make sure it wasn't Alexa, but
- 25:41Speaker 2: it's a girl named Alex. Talked about a friend who
- 25:46Speaker 2: did that and suffered a stroke. The friend's doctors say
- 25:48Speaker 2: the massager may have created a blood clot on the brainstem,
- 25:52Speaker 2: triggering the stroke. Basically, the muscles in your deck neck
- 25:56Speaker 2: are actually very small, and it's a lot easier to
- 26:00Speaker 2: hit arteries, major nerves, and critical body parts. So if
- 26:04Speaker 2: you got one of those massagers and you think I
- 26:06Speaker 2: want to use this on my neck, maybe not so fast,
- 26:08Speaker 2: or at least talk to your doctor about it before
- 26:12Speaker 2: you do it. That's just a suggestion, all right. Some people,
- 26:18Speaker 2: and this is one of those topics, do you sleep
- 26:20Speaker 2: in socks or do you not sleep in socks? I
- 26:22Speaker 2: used to be very anti sock in bed. Now I'm
- 26:28Speaker 2: a bit more likely to do it. Not in the
- 26:30Speaker 2: summer months, but certainly in the cooler anytime we get
- 26:33Speaker 2: some cooler weather. But for some people, the thought of
- 26:37Speaker 2: wearing socks to bed is nuts. But one sleep specialist
- 26:43Speaker 2: says that wearing socks to bed could be the key
- 26:46Speaker 2: to getting a good night's sleep, saying that warming your
- 26:50Speaker 2: feet cools down your body, allowing you to drift off faster.
- 26:56Speaker 2: Michelle Drerup, director of Sleep Disorder Center at the Cleveland Clinic, says,
- 27:01Speaker 2: it sounds counterintuitive, I know, but by wearing socks to bed,
- 27:05Speaker 2: warming your feet, you may actually lower your core body
- 27:07Speaker 2: temperature and fall asleep faster. By making your feet warmer,
- 27:11Speaker 2: you're opening up blood vessels to help cool down the
- 27:14Speaker 2: rest of your body. So increasing the circulation to your
- 27:18Speaker 2: feet results in a lower core temperature. So there you go.
- 27:23Speaker 2: I also suggests that you should keep the room you
- 27:25Speaker 2: were sleeping in cool about sixty five degrees according to
- 27:29Speaker 2: many sleep experts. So, and you've heard talk about the
- 27:33Speaker 2: penny and how much it costs to make the penny. Well,
- 27:36Speaker 2: it seems that many Americans are ready to get rid
- 27:40Speaker 2: of the penny. About forty two percent of Americans say
- 27:42Speaker 2: let's get rid of them. Among people who know that
- 27:45Speaker 2: the cost of a penny is more than one cent,
- 27:49Speaker 2: though that number is about fifty seven percent, just thirty
- 27:51Speaker 2: percent say that you need to keep the penny. And
- 27:55Speaker 2: it costs more than five cents to make a nickel. Also,
- 27:58Speaker 2: so you got to be careful if that's your logic.
- 28:01Speaker 2: But twenty six percent of people say they're ready to
- 28:03Speaker 2: get rid of Nichols as well.
- 28:06Speaker 1: So there you go.
- 28:07Speaker 2: I've been to Australia a number of times. They got
- 28:10Speaker 2: rid of their pennies a long time ago, and it
- 28:12Speaker 2: all just kind of rounds up or down depending on
- 28:14Speaker 2: where your total comes to, and you round it out
- 28:17Speaker 2: to the fives or tens, and then that's the end
- 28:20Speaker 2: of it. I mean, that's the solution. If that's the
- 28:23Speaker 2: direction that we go. And it seems inevitable that we'll
- 28:26Speaker 2: go there, or you know, they got to make it
- 28:28Speaker 2: out of something else, figure out a way to make
- 28:30Speaker 2: it cost less to make it, but I don't see
- 28:32Speaker 2: that happening. That'll do it for this Wednesday edition of
- 28:36Speaker 2: the show. Thanks to our sponsors and Patronspatreon, dot com,
