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.
0:11
Speaker 2: Monday morning, twenty third day of March. I'm wes, thanks
0:16
Speaker 2: for joining me. Something about early mornings and the allergy
0:23
Speaker 2: just gets me with that little little rasp, a little
0:25
Speaker 2: crackle in there. But here we are back to the
0:28
Speaker 2: next phase of spring. You know, we go through the
0:33
Speaker 2: false spring, we have the false falls, we do that,
0:37
Speaker 2: but we go through these phases of is it really
0:39
Speaker 2: going to be warmer? And then it drops down. We
0:42
Speaker 2: still have some cool nights coming up here in this area,
0:45
Speaker 2: and I guess throughout parts of the country some cool
0:47
Speaker 2: nights still to come. And then I guess then we'll
0:50
Speaker 2: snap it. I guess as we get to April, by
0:52
Speaker 2: that point will be you know, even before that, I
0:56
Speaker 2: guess we'll be above the fifties at night, or in
0:59
Speaker 2: the fifties, I should say, of fifty forties are still
1:03
Speaker 2: coming for us here, and I know parts of the
1:06
Speaker 2: country colder, and then obviously other part's quite a bit warmer.
1:11
Speaker 2: So we're basically there. I mean, I know, we hit
1:14
Speaker 2: the astronomical first day of spring, and then you know,
1:19
Speaker 2: I still maintain that we've had a month of spring
1:22
Speaker 2: almost are three weeks of it, three plus weeks of it,
1:24
Speaker 2: because I go by calendar. That's the way I think
1:28
Speaker 2: of it, and that's the way I think we should.
1:29
Speaker 2: But you know, it doesn't matter. Tomato tomato right. So
1:35
Speaker 2: a few things I want to get to, and I
1:37
Speaker 2: know I talked on Friday about how I was going
1:39
Speaker 2: to talk a little bit about the movie One Battle
1:43
Speaker 2: after the next, and we will get to that in
1:48
Speaker 2: just a little bits. That's my plan today. That was
1:51
Speaker 2: my plan through the weekend. Sometimes I watch a movie
1:55
Speaker 2: and I want a little time to process some things,
2:00
Speaker 2: and I wanted to do that with this movie, one
2:03
Speaker 2: battle after another, rest at the next, but I don't
2:05
Speaker 2: want to make sure to get the title of it
2:06
Speaker 2: right and anyway, get to that in just a second.
2:11
Speaker 2: A few other things I want to get to. First,
2:15
Speaker 2: price of gas, I know is up. I know people
2:18
Speaker 2: are saying, oh my gosh, it's so high. And it's
2:21
Speaker 2: comical to me that one anyone who's a conservative is
2:25
Speaker 2: not acknowledging it because it has gone up. It has
2:30
Speaker 2: absolutely gone up. We can all pretend that it hasn't
2:33
Speaker 2: gone up. But it's gone up. That tends to happen
2:37
Speaker 2: when there is any sort of a war or warlike
2:41
Speaker 2: conflict in the Middle East. It just it happens. It's
2:44
Speaker 2: the reality of it. That's where we are at the moment.
2:48
Speaker 2: It had gone down a lot, and now it's gone up,
2:51
Speaker 2: so we can't just pretend that it hasn't gone up. However,
2:55
Speaker 2: my dear liberal friends, she would stop pretending that this
3:02
Speaker 2: is like an all time high and that we didn't
3:04
Speaker 2: just go through four years of Green New Deal stuff
3:09
Speaker 2: and twenty twenty two. I mean, right now, I just
3:13
Speaker 2: checked as of this morning, and I guess three sixty something.
3:18
Speaker 2: Three sixty five I think is the national average or
3:21
Speaker 2: something that's higher than it was. Absolutely it is. I
3:26
Speaker 2: just want to remind you twenty twenty two, it went
3:29
Speaker 2: over five dollars a gallon for the national average. So
3:32
Speaker 2: we need to stop pretending that this is We're just
3:35
Speaker 2: oh my gosh, I can't believe that a Republican president
3:39
Speaker 2: let gas get so high. This is the highest it's
3:43
Speaker 2: ever been. It's not the highest it's been, you know,
3:46
Speaker 2: in the twenty twenties, not even close. I mean, it's
3:54
Speaker 2: it's quite a bit lower. Than it was then. But
3:57
Speaker 2: also my conservative friends stopped pretending like it hasn't gone,
4:00
Speaker 2: but it has. But the people who are just in horror,
4:03
Speaker 2: just shock and horror at how oh it's so expensive.
4:06
Speaker 2: I can't believe it's so high. How it looks at
4:09
Speaker 2: He promised it wouldn't get high anyway. He promised also
4:15
Speaker 2: not to get in a never ending war, and people
4:18
Speaker 2: are like, he's gotten us into a war, and it's well,
4:22
Speaker 2: we'll see how it planned, how it pans out when
4:24
Speaker 2: it comes to it being never ending war. Other quick
4:27
Speaker 2: thing I want to get to this morning, and I
4:31
Speaker 2: just feel like it's important since especially now we're gonna
4:35
Speaker 2: be talking about something Hollywood related in this h this movie.
4:40
Speaker 2: But I do think it is uh worth noting this.
4:45
Speaker 2: I don't the and it's it's kind of made the news,
4:49
Speaker 2: which is comical to me because I'm gonna be completely
4:53
Speaker 2: honest with you. I I'm a big David Spade fan.
4:58
Speaker 2: I've talked before about the fact that I'm a David
5:01
Speaker 2: Spade fan. I know he's not for everybody. I've my
5:07
Speaker 2: my my wife finds him funny but doesn't quite get it,
5:11
Speaker 2: doesn't understand, doesn't quite get the appeal. I like quirky
5:17
Speaker 2: humor Norm MacDonald. It may be my favorite comic of
5:21
Speaker 2: all time, and that's about as quirky and odd as
5:26
Speaker 2: you get. I think Jill gets Norm a little bit
5:29
Speaker 2: more than she gets David Spade, but she does. Those
5:31
Speaker 2: are both kind of for her, you know, and and
5:35
Speaker 2: the two of them really we're really close friends before
5:39
Speaker 2: Norm's passing.
5:41
Speaker 1: Uh.
5:43
Speaker 2: But I get that there are a lot of people
5:45
Speaker 2: who don't get David Spade. I get that there's a
5:49
Speaker 2: lot of people that don't get Norm MacDonald. I do.
5:53
Speaker 2: But we're talking about David Spade today, and I'm gonna
5:57
Speaker 2: be completely honest with you.
5:59
Speaker 1: I I.
6:01
Speaker 2: Mean, some of his movies were great, some of them. Eh.
6:06
Speaker 2: Anytime he's working with Sandler, obviously their buddies. He's part
6:09
Speaker 2: of that group that works with Sandler frequently. That's gonna
6:13
Speaker 2: give him at least a boost on whether or not
6:15
Speaker 2: the movie is gonna have another extra shot at being good.
6:19
Speaker 2: I think although some of Sandler's movies, you know, there's
6:22
Speaker 2: a few of those that aren't especially as beloved as
6:25
Speaker 2: the others. But I just being completely honest and speaking
6:32
Speaker 2: as someone who is a David Spade fan, and I
6:34
Speaker 2: thought the show Bitch Show, by the way, it was
6:37
Speaker 2: fantastic TV. And then David Spade, I forget what his
6:42
Speaker 2: This Evening or whatever it's called. He had a talk
6:44
Speaker 2: show that was also very good. Side note, nor McDonald's
6:50
Speaker 2: Sports show was great too, but what it isn't about Norm.
6:56
Speaker 2: I would have thought that if you told me that
6:59
Speaker 2: in twenty two, twenty six, March of twenty twenty six,
7:04
Speaker 2: David Spade would be like trending, I would have assumed
7:11
Speaker 2: I would be devastated to hear that, and I would
7:13
Speaker 2: assume that it would mean something happened to him. He passed.
7:18
Speaker 2: That's what I would assume had happened. But that's not
7:22
Speaker 2: what happened. And that's not ridiculous when you you know,
7:26
Speaker 2: I think David Spade is uh. I don't think of
7:29
Speaker 2: him as being a comic who is who overindulges in
7:32
Speaker 2: those kinds of things. You know, you got these comics
7:34
Speaker 2: that when you find out that like a Mitch Hedberg,
7:38
Speaker 2: you know, tragic as it were, when you find out
7:41
Speaker 2: Mitch Hedberg, you know, overdosed or whatever, you just kind
7:44
Speaker 2: of go sad. But it's not like what and I
7:52
Speaker 2: just kind of feel like Spade is not one of
7:54
Speaker 2: those guys, and I don't know what he does. You know,
7:59
Speaker 2: I don't know the guy. I'd like to know the guy.
8:01
Speaker 2: I don't know the guy. I'd love to meet him
8:02
Speaker 2: in interview him, but I don't. I don't know the guy.
8:04
Speaker 2: But I would have thought, if you're saying this, he
8:08
Speaker 2: had a situation with like a manager, he had someone
8:12
Speaker 2: that you know, I don't remember the story, but like
8:16
Speaker 2: broke into his house and tried to kill him or
8:18
Speaker 2: something that I would have assumed maybe it would have
8:21
Speaker 2: been something to do with that. But that's not why
8:24
Speaker 2: he's been trending over the weekend. David Spade, who there's
8:33
Speaker 2: several of these guys in this Sandler group that are
8:35
Speaker 2: known to be a little bit more conservative than typical Hollywood,
8:39
Speaker 2: and I think it's one of the reasons that Sandler
8:41
Speaker 2: often gets the you know, bad reviews, even on movies
8:46
Speaker 2: that are good. And David Spade has a podcast now,
8:54
Speaker 2: it's called Fly on the Wall. He does it with
8:57
Speaker 2: Dana Carvey, and they were having a conversation about basically
9:07
Speaker 2: CBS Radford Studio. He said on the show, talking about
9:14
Speaker 2: the fact that Hollywood industry's dying, and he says that,
9:21
Speaker 2: I guess Gavin Newsom was trying to put the blame somewhere.
9:25
Speaker 2: He says, dude, I'm so old. I was on the
9:27
Speaker 2: lot at CBS Radford when we were doing Just Shoot Me,
9:32
Speaker 2: and also they were doing Seinfeld and i'd see or
9:35
Speaker 2: maybe he's talking about Jerry Seinfeld at this point, but
9:37
Speaker 2: he says, I'd see him on his bike and it
9:40
Speaker 2: was the greatest. Of course, they filed for bankruptcy. The
9:43
Speaker 2: lot did terrifying in LA Thanks Karen Bass, Thanks Gavin.
9:50
Speaker 2: Referring to Gavin Newsom, So here you've got David Spade,
9:54
Speaker 2: not known for being someone who is overtly political in
9:58
Speaker 2: things that he talks about. He's just not. He's kind
10:01
Speaker 2: of one of those guys. He's old school. If you
10:03
Speaker 2: find a joke, if you find the funny, you go
10:05
Speaker 2: for it. So this was interesting to hear David Spade
10:10
Speaker 2: take a shot at leadership in Hollywood, and they basically
10:16
Speaker 2: the two of them went on to talk about the
10:17
Speaker 2: fact that now you you know, I guess Dana Carvey's
10:21
Speaker 2: comment was the amount of productions is dying, and so
10:26
Speaker 2: you have to do something so more production comes back,
10:29
Speaker 2: and that starts with negotiating with the union and also
10:32
Speaker 2: subsidizing the industry tax breaks to compete with Romania. And
10:39
Speaker 2: that is who would have imagined David Spade, I mean,
10:44
Speaker 2: Dana Carvey, brilliant impressionist, brilliant comic, funny guy, both of
10:51
Speaker 2: them very funny. But I would not have imagined that
10:54
Speaker 2: we would have a point in our year if you
10:57
Speaker 2: had it in the bingo board, that you'd have Dana
11:00
Speaker 2: Carvey and David Spade being voice of reason about things
11:05
Speaker 2: going on in Hollywood. You have actors Stallone, John Voight,
11:13
Speaker 2: some others that have been working with the Trump administration,
11:15
Speaker 2: and they've basically said, Hollywood is turning into Detroit. This
11:20
Speaker 2: is the path that that Hollywood, that la. It's no
11:25
Speaker 2: longer a must go to tourist destination. It's it's a
11:32
Speaker 2: it's a giant garbage dump. And you have tent cities,
11:37
Speaker 2: you have you know, jobs leaving the state. It's getting worse.
11:43
Speaker 2: New York seems to be on its way to becoming
11:46
Speaker 2: that sort of state as well. So I just say
11:50
Speaker 2: bravo to Spade and Carvey for bringing it up, for
11:55
Speaker 2: talking about it on their show. Again, they're not this
11:57
Speaker 2: is not a political show. They're not overtly political guys.
12:03
Speaker 2: I've heard Spade talk about, you know, I was definitely
12:05
Speaker 2: more liberal when I didn't have money, and then you
12:08
Speaker 2: get money, and then you realize, wait, they want to
12:10
Speaker 2: take my money, and you become more conservative. I think
12:12
Speaker 2: I've heard him talk about that, which, yeah, I get that,
12:19
Speaker 2: I do. You got guys in that group. Obviously, Rob
12:23
Speaker 2: Schneider is very openly conservative. Now you've had John Lovett
12:29
Speaker 2: say some pretty darn conservative things also. So anyway, just
12:34
Speaker 2: some of the and you know, Sandler was really good
12:36
Speaker 2: friends and maybe still is still really good friends with
12:40
Speaker 2: Rudy Giuliani in New York. So you know, always this
12:44
Speaker 2: kind of perception that these guys were a little bit
12:46
Speaker 2: more conservative than they were supposed to be in Hollywood.
12:53
Speaker 2: But anyway, all right, good for them. The other thing
12:56
Speaker 2: I want to talk about is this movie. I watched
12:59
Speaker 2: the movie one by Laughter Another now. I watched it
13:02
Speaker 2: last week. It won Oscar's Best Picture a week ago.
13:06
Speaker 2: And the Oscars are a mess. This was the first
13:11
Speaker 2: year I didn't watch a second of the Oscars. I
13:13
Speaker 2: had no interest in it. I've shared that I used
13:15
Speaker 2: to watch it as a little kid with my mom.
13:18
Speaker 2: I enjoyed watching it with her. We always like kind
13:22
Speaker 2: of seeing, you know, what movies were being spotlighted and
13:25
Speaker 2: all these things. And now it's really become a you know,
13:30
Speaker 2: you can't qualify to even submit for Best Picture unless
13:34
Speaker 2: you meet certain requirements. There's a list of things that
13:37
Speaker 2: you must you know, check boxes. You have to have
13:40
Speaker 2: x number of underrepresented people, and the story has to
13:43
Speaker 2: be within certain guidelines or the faces on screen have
13:47
Speaker 2: to be within certain guidelines. And so it's just it's
13:52
Speaker 2: a joke to say that you're evaluating what's the best
13:54
Speaker 2: movie that's come out. I mean, that's laughable. And maybe
13:58
Speaker 2: the best movie fits all those boxes, but also maybe
14:02
Speaker 2: it doesn't, and maybe it gets left out because it doesn't,
14:05
Speaker 2: you know, qualify by their standards, and there are many
14:09
Speaker 2: I saw a list the other day. The number of
14:10
Speaker 2: patent you know, by these standards wouldn't qualify. The number
14:14
Speaker 2: of movies that you can't even say, like this would
14:17
Speaker 2: qualify as a production that could win Best Picture, and
14:23
Speaker 2: some great movies on the list that would not even qualify.
14:27
Speaker 2: But anyway, so one battle after another, it's a movie
14:33
Speaker 2: it's based on a book. This book is set in
14:36
Speaker 2: written in the nineties. It's basically set in America, but
14:41
Speaker 2: it's you know, this fascist, overtly religious fascist rule in
14:49
Speaker 2: the country. I'm not going to necessarily give out I'm
14:52
Speaker 2: not gonna spoil anything as far as the plot. So
14:54
Speaker 2: if you're gonna watch it and the movie was good,
14:59
Speaker 2: let me get that out of the way. I didn't
15:01
Speaker 2: dislike the movie. But what you see playing out in
15:05
Speaker 2: it is that the heroes of the movie are I
15:08
Speaker 2: may spoil a little bit. I'm sorry, I'm gonna try
15:10
Speaker 2: not to. There's just a little thing that I may
15:12
Speaker 2: have to say for my commentary, but the heroes are
15:15
Speaker 2: part of these alt left, these far left, supposedly anti
15:21
Speaker 2: fascist protesters. They're basically the very violent versions of the
15:28
Speaker 2: people that I think people on that you see on
15:30
Speaker 2: TV at the protest think that they are. These are
15:33
Speaker 2: the people that people that are blocking traffic and standing
15:37
Speaker 2: over highway overpasses, distracting traffic with signs. These are the
15:40
Speaker 2: people that they think that they are, that they're somehow
15:44
Speaker 2: really sticking it to the man. And that's the characters
15:48
Speaker 2: in this movie. They're you know, blowing things up and
15:50
Speaker 2: all these horrific things, but they're the heroes. They're not
15:55
Speaker 2: just like anti heroes. They're the heroes because they're standing
15:58
Speaker 2: up to these fascist groups. And then there's some things happen,
16:04
Speaker 2: and then it jumps ahead in time in the movie,
16:06
Speaker 2: and then you see some things kind of changes in
16:09
Speaker 2: some of the characters that come over the sixteen years
16:12
Speaker 2: and where they are and where things go. Now some
16:17
Speaker 2: of the characters, this is where it's spoiler ish, but
16:21
Speaker 2: it's I'm not going to be specific. Some of the
16:23
Speaker 2: characters kind of get the come up and they get
16:25
Speaker 2: they get what's coming to them, which is what we're
16:28
Speaker 2: told on TV shows in Hollywood. We're supposed to get
16:33
Speaker 2: shows like Breaking Bad or The Sopranos. You're supposed to
16:36
Speaker 2: get these people getting you know, they earned it. You
16:40
Speaker 2: can't just let them off the hook. They earned it,
16:43
Speaker 2: so they got to get it. Right. Some of the
16:46
Speaker 2: characters get it, some don't. Some are still portrayed as
16:52
Speaker 2: heroes all the way to the very end. So it's
16:57
Speaker 2: pre in this movie. You see things like people being
17:00
Speaker 2: grabbed up by they're not labeled as ice, but you
17:03
Speaker 2: can see that they're kind of supposed to be ice.
17:05
Speaker 2: They're this, you know, some sort of militaristic fascist arm
17:13
Speaker 2: of this fascist government that's out grabbing up illegals. And
17:17
Speaker 2: the people that are heroes are the illegals and the
17:20
Speaker 2: people that are helping the illegals and not necessarily you know,
17:23
Speaker 2: because you got the fascist criminals that are rounding them up.
17:28
Speaker 2: Now this movie, the defense of this movie is oh, no, no, no.
17:31
Speaker 2: This movie was made before Trump's second presidency and has
17:34
Speaker 2: nothing to do with that. And this is what I
17:38
Speaker 2: wanted to talk about is as you watch it and
17:41
Speaker 2: you realize they wrote, right, I mean, it's based on
17:47
Speaker 2: a book, but this is modified. It's not exactly the book.
17:52
Speaker 2: It's inspired by this book, and they wrote what people
17:58
Speaker 2: believe the government is. It's like they're saying, no, no, no, no,
18:01
Speaker 2: we didn't do this based on that. But they wrote
18:04
Speaker 2: in this movie what they were wanting people to see
18:09
Speaker 2: the country as they were. They were writing it in
18:13
Speaker 2: a way that even the press and like the press
18:16
Speaker 2: got it like exactly what they were. They understood the assignment.
18:21
Speaker 2: I don't know if they got early screenings or early
18:23
Speaker 2: looks at the script, I don't know, but it's fascinating
18:26
Speaker 2: to me how much, and we do the whole art
18:28
Speaker 2: imitating life for life, imitating art. It's scripted. It's not
18:33
Speaker 2: even like this isn't it's scripted. It's not imitating anything.
18:39
Speaker 2: Someone wrote a movie based on a book and just
18:43
Speaker 2: said it right in today and just kind of said,
18:47
Speaker 2: here you go, here's what you're good, here's what we see,
18:52
Speaker 2: here's who the heroes are, and here's you know, here's
18:57
Speaker 2: what you should be inspired by. These revolutionaries. They didn't
19:03
Speaker 2: even have to set it in America. I mean, they
19:05
Speaker 2: could have set it in a fictional place and made
19:09
Speaker 2: their points, but it wouldn't have mattered. A lot of
19:13
Speaker 2: people upset about it, a lot of people horrified and
19:16
Speaker 2: offended that I can't believe they made that. Well they
19:19
Speaker 2: made it, you know, beforehand. But what you need to
19:22
Speaker 2: be aware of is the fact that they wrote out
19:25
Speaker 2: this thing. You got people that are trying to stand
19:28
Speaker 2: you know, get in their car and run over police
19:30
Speaker 2: officers and ice officers and you know, blocking traffic and
19:34
Speaker 2: people going to work because this is what they think
19:38
Speaker 2: our government is, this is what they think it's become.
19:42
Speaker 2: And they've of course got Hollywood telling them and reinforcing
19:48
Speaker 2: it over and over again. This is what they think.
19:51

21:55
Speaker 2: Company of Columbus. For all of your garage door needs,
21:58
Speaker 2: commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's
22:04
Speaker 2: time for. It's always good to get maintenance on anything
22:08
Speaker 2: that has parts that move and have electronics. The folks
22:12
Speaker 2: at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take care of
22:15
Speaker 2: square in that away for you, and while they're there,
22:17
Speaker 2: you can always ask them questions about some of the
22:19
Speaker 2: maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
22:23
Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
22:26
Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
22:28
Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
22:31
Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
22:35
Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of installation
22:38
Speaker 2: issue that you've got. With colder or warmer weather, sometimes
22:42
Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
22:45
Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
22:48
Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
22:51
Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
22:54
Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you like
22:57
Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
22:59
Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
23:01
Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
23:03
Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
23:06
Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
23:09
Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
23:12
Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
23:15
Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
23:18
Speaker 2: as well. Seven oh six thy five eight forty five

Speaker 2: hundred seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred
23:24
Speaker 2: O dccolumbus dot com More West Carol Morning Show. Right
23:28
Speaker 2: after the break, well, if you follow the World Happiness Report,
23:40
Speaker 2: you know that Finland is the happiest country in the world.
23:46
Speaker 2: They base the rankings on a number of metrics including
23:49
Speaker 2: healthy life expectancy, social support, freedom's, generosity, equality, and others.
23:57
Speaker 2: Finland number one, Iceland number two, Denmark, Costa Rica, Sweden, Norway,
24:04
Speaker 2: the Netherlands, Israel, Luxembourg and Switland. Switzerland, Switzerland, Switzerland round
24:10
Speaker 2: out the top ten. I was trying to get to
24:12
Speaker 2: top ten and it came out to Switzerland, the US
24:15
Speaker 2: number twenty three, in case you were wondering, twenty four
24:18
Speaker 2: last year. Climbing the charts. Climbing the charts, man, it's
24:24
Speaker 2: interesting going just a little bit back to what we
24:27
Speaker 2: was talking about before the break is you have people
24:30
Speaker 2: that just want it to be bad, and they talk
24:33
Speaker 2: about how bad it is. It's oh, it's so bad,
24:35
Speaker 2: We're so racist. We've never been more racist than we
24:39
Speaker 2: are right now. I think we were. I think that's
24:42
Speaker 2: kind of a reach. I can think of a period
24:46
Speaker 2: of time when we were definitely more racist as a country.
24:49
Speaker 2: I can think of it. I can think of a window,
24:52
Speaker 2: you know, you know, I can think of a period
24:56
Speaker 2: of time when we were a more racist tree than now.
25:00
Speaker 2: But this ridiculous thing that we do where we go, oh,
25:03
Speaker 2: have never been more racist than we are now. We
25:06
Speaker 2: kind of were as a country definitely, And when freedoms,
25:13
Speaker 2: I think we should brank really high on the freedom,
25:15
Speaker 2: shouldn't we. Anyway, Spring means that you can get outside
25:20
Speaker 2: and maybe have your meals outside. Benefits to being out
25:25
Speaker 2: in nature and boosting your mood, and it will actually
25:29
Speaker 2: help you to eat better. A new study out of
25:31
Speaker 2: Drexel University and Wake Forest University found that do they
25:35
Speaker 2: Play in a Tournament found that people who regularly spent
25:38
Speaker 2: outside spent time outside in nature ended up making better
25:42
Speaker 2: food choices. So by spending the time outdoors, basically it
25:48
Speaker 2: took away from some stress eating so junk food. One
25:53
Speaker 2: participant said, food can be used for stress and boredom.
25:56
Speaker 2: When you're in nature, you're occupying yourself doing something meaningful,
26:01
Speaker 2: mind less concerned about easy ways for satisfaction. That's good.
26:05
Speaker 2: I like that. Researchers found that being outside was a
26:09
Speaker 2: way of resetting your mind, easing the tension that can
26:13
Speaker 2: send you reaching for comfort food. Stress lifts. Choosing something
26:19
Speaker 2: healthier to eat makes you feel like it's a little
26:24
Speaker 2: easier and that's good. You know, healthier foods makes things
26:28
Speaker 2: easier as the stress starts to climb, So that all
26:31
Speaker 2: makes sense. Runners have found a new way to turn
26:38
Speaker 2: their runs into something good for the environment. It's called plogging.
26:43
Speaker 2: Started in Sweden, number five on your list of Happiest
26:46
Speaker 2: places in the world. It's basically says it's jogging and
26:52
Speaker 2: then you're also picking up litter, so you're picking up
26:57
Speaker 2: litter and jogging, so you're plogging, picking up litter jogging.
27:03
Speaker 2: It's a little bit of a strain, but we'll get there.
27:06
Speaker 2: And basically it's ploka up i guess is their term
27:11
Speaker 2: for it. So that's where it's but I just say
27:14
Speaker 2: picking up litter, but ploca up i guess. So walking running,
27:20
Speaker 2: whatever they're doing, ploggers carry a bag stop to grab
27:23
Speaker 2: trash that they see it. And they do this to
27:26
Speaker 2: keep parks and trails and sidewalks looking good. So sweating
27:32
Speaker 2: and cleaning up some good stuff. I feel like that's
27:35
Speaker 2: me just walk in my neighborhood. I just pick up nails, screws.
27:38
Speaker 2: I still end up with them all in my tires regularly.
27:42
Speaker 2: It's just constantly, constantly. So we don't have a Costco here,
27:51
Speaker 2: but I'm just going to share this story for folks
27:53
Speaker 2: that do have a Costco and venture in. And you
27:58
Speaker 2: know that inflation has hit as hard. We had a
28:02
Speaker 2: previous administration that seemed to be just putting its foot
28:05
Speaker 2: on our throats and trying to make us suffer. And
28:09
Speaker 2: now and you know, you don't really go back. I
28:11
Speaker 2: tried to warn you of that. We don't go back.
28:13
Speaker 2: It's not like you just go man, we're gonna lower
28:15
Speaker 2: all these prices. But I can tell you this, this
28:18
Speaker 2: is some positive news that Costco. Their famous dollar fifty
28:24
Speaker 2: hot dog and soda combo apparently isn't going anywhere. CEO
28:31
Speaker 2: of Costco, Ron Vakris, recently eased a lot of nerves,
28:37
Speaker 2: announcing that the deal will not change as long as
28:39
Speaker 2: he's around. Costco posted a video of Zachris enjoying a
28:43
Speaker 2: hot dog and a coke. The response from customers has
28:47
Speaker 2: been overwhelmingly positive, many praising vacorus When commenter saying, give
28:52
Speaker 2: this man anything he wants in the world, protect him
28:54
Speaker 2: at all costs. Long live the Overlord of Kirkland. Anyway,
28:59
Speaker 2: That's that's a positive, keeping that disc out. I wish
29:03
Speaker 2: all the value menus around all the they've all gone
29:08
Speaker 2: so high. My kids just wanted a certain fast. They
29:12
Speaker 2: wanted Wendy's Saturday night. Jill and I were gonna go
29:16
Speaker 2: out and have a date night, and the boys just
29:17
Speaker 2: wanted Wendy's at home. And I'm like, this is for
29:20
Speaker 2: two boys. I mean, I know they're teenagers, and I
29:24
Speaker 2: know they eat more, but man, all right, that'll do
29:28
