- 0:01Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary and interviews you need to start
- 0:06Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to The West Carrol Morning Show.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, second day of June. I'm West, Thanks for
- 0:15Speaker 2: joining me. My Dad's birthday to day. If you know
- 0:21Speaker 2: my dad, see him out and about today, tell them
- 0:25Speaker 2: happy birthday. Chances are you might see him out and
- 0:28Speaker 2: about with me and my brothers and my kids and
- 0:32Speaker 2: all that, because I know there is a lunch on
- 0:36Speaker 2: the horizon of some kind for him today to celebrate
- 0:38Speaker 2: his birthday. And he gets to pick. So you know,
- 0:42Speaker 2: who knows we're willing up. There's no telling. If you
- 0:45Speaker 2: know him, you know he can be unpredictable sometimes. And
- 0:51Speaker 2: I say that very facetiously. He's just a handful of
- 0:54Speaker 2: places he'll pick from. And chances are he might even
- 0:56Speaker 2: just defer to us and say, why don't you guys
- 0:58Speaker 2: pick because I'd rather you do that, but his birthday,
- 1:03Speaker 2: and he wouldn't care. Eighty one eighty one, how about that? Yes?
- 1:11Speaker 2: Eighty one for the old guy. So we're going to
- 1:14Speaker 2: be celebrating him today and probably really on into a
- 1:19Speaker 2: couple of days this week. You know you got to
- 1:21Speaker 2: do that. It's a big one. I know last year
- 1:24Speaker 2: eighty was, you know, like the big one when you
- 1:28Speaker 2: go like, oh it ends in a zero. We just
- 1:30Speaker 2: talked about that yesterday, didn't we But eighty one that
- 1:34Speaker 2: I think you start stacking them like you celebrate them all.
- 1:38Speaker 2: At this point, you just do it and we're you know,
- 1:41Speaker 2: he's instilled good health, good heart, good respiratory. That's what
- 1:45Speaker 2: you want, that's what you want, you want all those things.
- 1:50Speaker 2: So I'd like to see him exercising, eating a little better.
- 1:54Speaker 2: But at eighty one, is he going to do that?
- 1:56Speaker 2: Probably not. So we got that going on here for
- 2:02Speaker 2: our our household. And uh uh, like I said, big big,
- 2:07Speaker 2: some sort of big lunch plans today, we're not. We're
- 2:10Speaker 2: not overly organized with that. We kind of figure all
- 2:13Speaker 2: that out day of That's a classic Carol complex. I
- 2:19Speaker 2: guess that's just kind of kind of what we do. Uh,
- 2:22Speaker 2: A few things I want to talk about today, and
- 2:25Speaker 2: this is kind of one of those, Like we got
- 2:27Speaker 2: a few few topics that are kind of floating around.
- 2:31Speaker 2: I haven't really talked much about all the protesters in
- 2:34Speaker 2: New Jersey. Obviously that situation has gotten ridiculously out of control. Look,
- 2:40Speaker 2: I can't speak specifically to. You know, one side has
- 2:44Speaker 2: made accusations about the conditions inside the ice facility. Uh,
- 2:50Speaker 2: some are you know, saying that it's these horrible conditions,
- 2:55Speaker 2: the food's bad, it's rotten, it's disgusting, and uh, these
- 2:59Speaker 2: horrible living conditions. There's no evidence of that at all,
- 3:04Speaker 2: other than one person said that they were holding some
- 3:07Speaker 2: milk that was like clumpy. I don't know about you,
- 3:12Speaker 2: I'm just you know, being blunt. Here in my household,
- 3:19Speaker 2: we have had things like you know, sour cream and
- 3:24Speaker 2: milk go off. Sometimes it happens. Sometimes it happens and
- 3:30Speaker 2: you don't intend for it to happen. It just happens,
- 3:33Speaker 2: and it's unfortunate. It happens at the store sometimes. If
- 3:38Speaker 2: you're ever in the store by the way, and you
- 3:39Speaker 2: see someone working in the dairy section and they've got
- 3:43Speaker 2: like a shopping cart and it's full of yogurt, that's
- 3:47Speaker 2: probably out of date. I'm not talking about like in
- 3:50Speaker 2: boxes to be put out. I'm talking about they're taking
- 3:52Speaker 2: it off the shelves actively and putting it into a
- 3:56Speaker 2: shopping cart. They're probably being on they're used by date,
- 4:01Speaker 2: and they're getting ready to be you know, processed and
- 4:05Speaker 2: disposed of. They gotta they got to get their credit
- 4:09Speaker 2: for it back from the vendor for the stuff that
- 4:11Speaker 2: didn't sell, or however that works, and then then you
- 4:13Speaker 2: know they dispose of it again. Not the intention of
- 4:19Speaker 2: the business. It just happened sometimes, is it. You would
- 4:26Speaker 2: be safe to say it's inexcusable that it would happen
- 4:30Speaker 2: in a prison scenario. It's unfortunate. If they're being given
- 4:36Speaker 2: it and told you're getting nothing else but this spoiled,
- 4:40Speaker 2: soured milk and you must drink it or chew it,
- 4:43Speaker 2: or whatever they wanted them to do with it. That
- 4:45Speaker 2: would be bad. If someone accidentally pulls out a milk
- 4:51Speaker 2: that's been pushed around somewhere and it's gotten well past
- 4:56Speaker 2: its prime, it's it's happened. I mean, in my childhood
- 5:00Speaker 2: up to adulthood, it's happened. Sometimes it just goes bad
- 5:04Speaker 2: and you pour it and you go, oh, this is disgusting.
- 5:07Speaker 2: This is like a fresh muzzarella, right, that's what it's like.
- 5:12Speaker 2: It's but it's not. It's it's milk that's gone bad.
- 5:16Speaker 2: But anyway, I don't know, I don't know what's happened.
- 5:20Speaker 2: I don't know the specifics about it. I've seen like
- 5:22Speaker 2: kind of an admission of that maybe, but for the
- 5:25Speaker 2: most part, we're just we're in this seasonal phase of
- 5:29Speaker 2: late May rolling into June. Time to start, you know,
- 5:34Speaker 2: really got to knuckle down on this. We've lost We've
- 5:38Speaker 2: lost such a big portion of the Hispanic vote in
- 5:42Speaker 2: the in the last presidential election, and this is a
- 5:44Speaker 2: mid term. We need them back, so we got to
- 5:47Speaker 2: I don't know that they even think in those terms anymore,
- 5:49Speaker 2: because if they did a lot of the things that
- 5:51Speaker 2: they've done concerning Israel and Jewish Americans, they would have
- 5:55Speaker 2: already changed their tone on a lot of that, and
- 5:58Speaker 2: they really haven't. They're still letting them down. I don't
- 6:01Speaker 2: know why any of them would even consider voting Democrat
- 6:05Speaker 2: ever again, unless you know, we're talking about, you know,
- 6:09Speaker 2: Josh Shapiro in Pennsylvania and somebody that is more moderate
- 6:14Speaker 2: and someone that they would certainly be willing to support,
- 6:18Speaker 2: but and not someone who has been pro Palestine, not
- 6:21Speaker 2: someone who is a far left, extreme wocist, which is
- 6:25Speaker 2: partly why he wasn't the VP pick and a big
- 6:29Speaker 2: part of why Trump got all of those battleground states,
- 6:32Speaker 2: because if he had been on the ticket, it could
- 6:34Speaker 2: have been a very different thing. But I've already given
- 6:36Speaker 2: you my theories on that. It's the useful idiot thing.
- 6:39Speaker 2: That's what Walls was. So anyway, so we know that
- 6:45Speaker 2: one side says that it's just abhorrent living conditions, that
- 6:49Speaker 2: people have no business being there and they're just being
- 6:52Speaker 2: tortured by being there and they're not being fed properly.
- 6:57Speaker 2: And then the right says, we've been in, we've looked around,
- 7:01Speaker 2: that's not the case. And the fact that these protesters
- 7:04Speaker 2: are getting more and more violent than you get politicians
- 7:07Speaker 2: that want to go and just make their public appearance.
- 7:11Speaker 2: They put on their little puppet show, they go in,
- 7:13Speaker 2: something crazy happens. Some of them have gotten a little
- 7:16Speaker 2: bit of pepper spray on them, and people saying, why
- 7:19Speaker 2: are you in there, Why are you in a prison
- 7:21Speaker 2: in the first place, what are you doing? And by
- 7:25Speaker 2: the way, for the most part, the people that are
- 7:27Speaker 2: being grabbed up by ICE are violent, wanted criminals from
- 7:32Speaker 2: other countries. I know there are some that their crime
- 7:37Speaker 2: is that they're in the country illegally. It is in
- 7:39Speaker 2: fact a crime to be in the country illegally, in
- 7:43Speaker 2: spite of what many on the left are trying to
- 7:45Speaker 2: say it's not rich, it's like a traffic ticket. No,
- 7:49Speaker 2: it's not. It's an actual crime. You can't be in
- 7:52Speaker 2: the country illegally. And there are some of those people
- 7:55Speaker 2: that are being grabbed up and maybe they're being put
- 7:57Speaker 2: in prison cells violent offenders and people wanted for sex
- 8:03Speaker 2: offenses and and you know, crimes against children.
- 8:10Speaker 1: And.
- 8:12Speaker 2: That's how prison works. You don't get to pick who
- 8:14Speaker 2: the sealemates are the best deterrent for That should be
- 8:20Speaker 2: don't break a law. And if you're in the country illegally,
- 8:24Speaker 2: you should start your paperwork process to be here legal
- 8:27Speaker 2: and illegally, or to be legal within your standing, or
- 8:31Speaker 2: you know, do what they've asked you to do. Go home.
- 8:35Speaker 2: I mean, that's it can't get easier or more clear
- 8:38Speaker 2: than that. That's that's your choice. You don't like being
- 8:42Speaker 2: there around these other criminals that are much more violent,
- 8:46Speaker 2: gang members and murderers and pedophiles. If that's not the
- 8:50Speaker 2: circumstance you want to be in, you know, there's other options.
- 8:55Speaker 2: You can leave before they've given you the options. You
- 8:58Speaker 2: can leave before I ever gets involved. But anyway, I'm
- 9:02Speaker 2: not advocating for you know, decent human beings to be
- 9:07Speaker 2: put in these extreme criminal cells with extreme criminals. I'm
- 9:16Speaker 2: not advocating for that. I'm not advocating for them to
- 9:18Speaker 2: drink on the occasion that a container of milk goes back.
- 9:23Speaker 2: I'm not advocating for that either. But we have to
- 9:26Speaker 2: understand that the violent protesting that we have now seen
- 9:30Speaker 2: yet again isn't about the people in the cells. That's
- 9:35Speaker 2: not what it's about. This is about votes. This is
- 9:39Speaker 2: about trying to make folks on the right afraid. This
- 9:44Speaker 2: is the never ending process of we're going to use
- 9:49Speaker 2: terror and fear to try to change the way you vote,
- 9:53Speaker 2: try to change the way you think, to rally supporters
- 9:56Speaker 2: that will just mindlessly do whatever we tell them to
- 9:59Speaker 2: do and ultimately fail in elections. I mean, I don't
- 10:03Speaker 2: know how it's going to go for this midterm, but
- 10:05Speaker 2: if this is going to be the strategy again, and
- 10:08Speaker 2: terrorism is going to be the strategy, and I'm just
- 10:11Speaker 2: going to say this because we've heard over and over
- 10:13Speaker 2: again with these accusations from people on the left saying,
- 10:17Speaker 2: you know, why do we have these ice agents covering
- 10:20Speaker 2: their faces, They're wearing masks, they're Gestapo all the things
- 10:24Speaker 2: that we've heard over and over and over again. And
- 10:27Speaker 2: you have ICE agents, honestly, that are covering their faces
- 10:31Speaker 2: because they're afraid for their families. They're afraid for what
- 10:36Speaker 2: might happen to their loved ones, their friends, their families.
- 10:40Speaker 2: They don't want to be their addresses published, their phone
- 10:45Speaker 2: numbers published, all of these things that are prone to happen.
- 10:50Speaker 2: And folks on the left said, ah, that's not going
- 10:52Speaker 2: to happen. They just need to stop being afraid. They
- 10:56Speaker 2: need to come out. If they're going to do their job,
- 10:57Speaker 2: they should not have a mask on. And in this
- 11:01Speaker 2: case in New Jersey, I saw the footage of that
- 11:06Speaker 2: one guy yelling, I've seen your face. Now I can
- 11:10Speaker 2: find out who you are, and your family's gonna suffer.
- 11:15Speaker 2: He was threatening. This is one of the strategies again,
- 11:20Speaker 2: we go back to fear. You think that ICE agent
- 11:23Speaker 2: isn't in the back of his mind going to think,
- 11:25Speaker 2: oh my gosh, is someone gonna actually get to my family.
- 11:27Speaker 2: I don't know. I would I would question it. I
- 11:30Speaker 2: would wonder it. And is that fair for someone just
- 11:33Speaker 2: trying to do their job something enforcing the laws of
- 11:38Speaker 2: the country, the constitution of the United States, the things
- 11:41Speaker 2: are sworn to do, the things that these politicians are
- 11:44Speaker 2: sworn to do as well. They think they can selectively
- 11:47Speaker 2: pick which ones they want to enforce and which ones
- 11:50Speaker 2: they shouldn't enforce. But this is a really and that's
- 11:55Speaker 2: just the one that got caught on audio. I mean
- 11:58Speaker 2: that video has been circulating so making threats at this
- 12:04Speaker 2: agent and his family, which again, that alone should be
- 12:07Speaker 2: a crime. I don't understand why we're not punishing that.
- 12:12Speaker 2: We also have this other thing that's happened, and this
- 12:15Speaker 2: is unrelated, I guess. But this is a nurse who
- 12:24Speaker 2: has basically said her name is Ronda Lee. That's the
- 12:27Speaker 2: name that they've posted for this woman and worked at
- 12:32Speaker 2: University of Michigan Medical Center starting in March of two thousand,
- 12:41Speaker 2: but hasn't been working there since twenty twenty three, So
- 12:45Speaker 2: worked there for I guess twenty three years and basically
- 12:49Speaker 2: said in a statement, and I think she's probably looking
- 12:53Speaker 2: for work. I guess. I don't know. I don't know
- 12:54Speaker 2: where she's working. It says that she said, given my profession,
- 13:00Speaker 2: and it's counterintuitive, but you know what, if that guy
- 13:03Speaker 2: referring to Donald Trump, he effing needs to die. As
- 13:07Speaker 2: she said, I've never been a violent person, but I'm
- 13:10Speaker 2: about to drive up there with my expletive knife and
- 13:21Speaker 2: give that mother effer a smiley face across his another
- 13:26Speaker 2: expletive f him. I hate that. And then a word
- 13:30Speaker 2: that starts with B. That could be two different words.
- 13:34Speaker 2: I guess it could be more, but the fact that
- 13:36Speaker 2: it's edited, I assume it's one of two words could
- 13:41Speaker 2: be others. There's others that could be. So this of
- 13:48Speaker 2: course has led to Secret Service getting involved and basically
- 13:53Speaker 2: saying that, you know, a threat to the president of
- 13:55Speaker 2: any kind, any Secret Service protectee is taking seriously and
- 14:01Speaker 2: investigated thoroughly, and it should be. But we're back to
- 14:05Speaker 2: this situation where now, so if someone was wearing a
- 14:10Speaker 2: Donald Trump's shirt or hat or a tattoo on their body,
- 14:14Speaker 2: and they were to come across this person as a
- 14:16Speaker 2: healthcare worker, you know, needing dire medical need, would would
- 14:20Speaker 2: she treat them? That's not the way it's supposed to work.
- 14:25Speaker 2: There's a reason that medical professionals take this oath, this
- 14:29Speaker 2: hippocratic oath. They're supposed to, you know, do no harm,
- 14:36Speaker 2: and they're supposed to That's the way that they serve
- 14:41Speaker 2: in our communities is by treating people and not treating
- 14:46Speaker 2: them based on what their healths or what their political
- 14:51Speaker 2: affiliation is in their need of health care. They're not
- 14:54Speaker 2: supposed to do that. So of questions about this, and
- 15:01Speaker 2: this is again this is another example of terrorism. If
- 15:08Speaker 2: you're threatening the president of the United States. First of all,
- 15:11Speaker 2: that that certainly, as much as we went on and
- 15:18Speaker 2: on and on about insurrections on January sixth, with people
- 15:21Speaker 2: just kind of walking through strolling through the Capitol, many
- 15:25Speaker 2: of them threats to kill the president of United States?
- 15:30Speaker 2: Is that not an attempt at an insurrection? An elected
- 15:35Speaker 2: president of the United States who is serving a term
- 15:39Speaker 2: and the goal is this woman speaking, is you know, murder?
- 15:45Speaker 2: I want to kill him? Is that not constitute an insurrection?
- 15:49Speaker 2: If you're trying to overthrow the president of the United States,
- 15:54Speaker 2: I mean head of the executive branch. I don't know
- 15:57Speaker 2: that's what I would have thought it was. So I
- 16:00Speaker 2: don't understand. And I want to go back to too,
- 16:02Speaker 2: because it's teachers doing this publicly, nurses, healthcare workers, doctors
- 16:07Speaker 2: doing this and obviously you know at the university level
- 16:13Speaker 2: as far as teachers go as well, I guess I've
- 16:16Speaker 2: just got questions too. Back to the whole thing in
- 16:19Speaker 2: New Jersey, and we've had a lot of conversation about
- 16:25Speaker 2: not conversation, because it's really just preaching about how the
- 16:29Speaker 2: ice agents and federal officers and any sort of police
- 16:33Speaker 2: officers should not have their face covered. Can we be
- 16:37Speaker 2: done with the masking in public? Because there were most
- 16:40Speaker 2: places it was illegal to do that before COVID and
- 16:43Speaker 2: the protesters get to wear masks and they get to
- 16:46Speaker 2: hide their identities and do horrible things and in many
- 16:49Speaker 2: cases face no consequences for it because they're wearing masks.
- 16:53Speaker 2: When are we going to is it? I think it's time,
- 16:55Speaker 2: isn't it. I know there's all these conversations about, hey,
- 16:59Speaker 2: what if we, you know, get in a situation where
- 17:02Speaker 2: we have another outbreak of some kind and haunt a
- 17:06Speaker 2: virus or you know, like which again that shouldn't be
- 17:11Speaker 2: easily spread. But I just think it's time. It's It's
- 17:16Speaker 2: still weird to me when I walk in a bank
- 17:18Speaker 2: and someone's got a mask over their face in the bank,
- 17:23Speaker 2: any place it has large sums of money and people
- 17:25Speaker 2: are in there with their faces covered, or they go
- 17:27Speaker 2: into a store and they've got their face covered and
- 17:30Speaker 2: a lot of people are wearing them. They're still not
- 17:32Speaker 2: wearing them correctly, They've just kind of halfway got them
- 17:35Speaker 2: on their faces. I think it's time to be done
- 17:37Speaker 2: with that, and I think we I'm all for peaceful protesting,
- 17:41Speaker 2: but this idea, this notion of people being able to
- 17:44Speaker 2: hide their identity while they're peacefully protesting quote unquote peacefully,
- 17:49Speaker 2: I think I think it's time for that to go,
- 17:51Speaker 2: isn't it. I mean, shouldn't shouldn't that come to an end?
- 17:55Speaker 2: And shouldn't all of the masking in public come to
- 17:58Speaker 2: an end unless we're act in the middle of a
- 18:01Speaker 2: health crisis where it's needed, because otherwise it's just people
- 18:05Speaker 2: breaking laws and violently protesting and covering up their faces,
- 18:09Speaker 2: isn't it. Today's show brought to you by Columbus State
- 18:11Speaker 2: Universities Coca Cola Space Science Center, inspiring and educating the
- 18:18Speaker 2: youth and future STEM leaders and STEM career holders that
- 18:23Speaker 2: really of all ages. I mean, they do it for
- 18:26Speaker 2: school age kids as school age kids visit the Coca
- 18:29Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center, but they also do it through
- 18:31Speaker 2: their university programs where you can learn engineering astronomy, physics
- 18:37Speaker 2: and the careers in space and stem fields are booming
- 18:41Speaker 2: right now, and you can learn more about maybe getting
- 18:45Speaker 2: your degree on their website CCSSC dot org. While you're there,
- 18:52Speaker 2: also check out some of their upcoming programs. They've got
- 18:55Speaker 2: this incredible collaboration that they do with the Schwobe School

- 19:03Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
- 19:07Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
- 19:09Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
- 19:13Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
- 19:18Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
- 19:22Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center and the new season of Music
- 19:26Speaker 2: under the Dome. Check out upcoming dates for the shows,

- 19:36Speaker 2: the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere
- 19:40Speaker 2: outside the city lights you don't want any light interference,
- 19:43Speaker 2: and you can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night
- 19:45Speaker 2: events also on their website. It's CCSSC dot org. As
- 19:50Speaker 2: Sean Crusan says Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I

- 20:03Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage
- 20:06Speaker 2: door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
- 20:12Speaker 2: that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance
- 20:16Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
- 20:19Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
- 20:23Speaker 2: care of square and that away for you, and while
- 20:25Speaker 2: they're there, you can always ask them questions about some
- 20:28Speaker 2: of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to
- 20:30Speaker 2: your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what
- 20:34Speaker 2: you want it to be and you need some repair
- 20:36Speaker 2: work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a
- 20:39Speaker 2: brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise
- 20:43Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
- 20:46Speaker 2: sort of installation issue that you've got with colder or
- 20:49Speaker 2: warmer weather. Sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
- 20:53Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
- 20:55Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
- 20:59Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
- 21:01Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know,
- 21:05Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
- 21:07Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man cavid you'd
- 21:10Speaker 2: like to be able to open the door up and
- 21:11Speaker 2: not invite all the insects in. They can do that
- 21:14Speaker 2: for you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
- 21:17Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
- 21:20Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
- 21:23Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, and they do
- 21:26Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh six thry five eight forty

- 21:37Speaker 2: right after the break. So there's a new dating trend
- 21:48Speaker 2: that goes by the term wildflowering. I don't think it's
- 21:52Speaker 2: necessarily that new. The name is what I guess makes
- 21:57Speaker 2: it new, But it's an idea that basically says that
- 22:01Speaker 2: you just let a new romance or potential romance grow
- 22:06Speaker 2: completely on its own. You don't put any timelines, no labels,
- 22:10Speaker 2: no expectations, you really just go with the flow and
- 22:13Speaker 2: see what happens. That's not a new concept that's been
- 22:17Speaker 2: around for a while. I don't know how good people
- 22:19Speaker 2: are at it, but it's caught on enough now that
- 22:24Speaker 2: this term wildflowering is there. You know, wildflowers tend to
- 22:30Speaker 2: be weeds. But you know, I get it sounds nice
- 22:34Speaker 2: when you say wildflowering. It wouldn't sound nice if you
- 22:36Speaker 2: said it was weeds. Dating experts are warning people not
- 22:39Speaker 2: to get fooled by the name. While it can be
- 22:43Speaker 2: something that would help you if you're stressed out about
- 22:45Speaker 2: dating and it helps you not overthink things and you
- 22:48Speaker 2: can sort of relax in a relationship situation, there is
- 22:51Speaker 2: a dark side to it, and they say that if
- 22:54Speaker 2: you're not careful, wildflowering is a perfect excuse for someone
- 22:57Speaker 2: to lead you on, avoid commitment, trap you in and
- 23:00Speaker 2: a casual relationship that goes nowhere. But if you want
- 23:05Speaker 2: to give it a try, they say it's important to
- 23:07Speaker 2: it at the very least, know what you want in
- 23:09Speaker 2: your ideal relationship and what you want it to look like,
- 23:12Speaker 2: so that you don't let things just ramble on in
- 23:15Speaker 2: ways that make you anxious or uncomfortable. I've got some
- 23:19Speaker 2: friends that were very much victims of that, where they
- 23:23Speaker 2: just sort of went with the flow. They had an
- 23:27Speaker 2: expectation and a hope for where it was going, and
- 23:29Speaker 2: then when it didn't go there, obviously they were upset. So, yeah,
- 23:34Speaker 2: you have to be careful with it if you truly
- 23:36Speaker 2: are open to let's just see what happens. But that's
- 23:39Speaker 2: where the challenge is, isn't it all? Right? People do
- 23:44Speaker 2: a lot of gross things when they fly, when they're
- 23:47Speaker 2: on an airplane, and there are a number of videos
- 23:53Speaker 2: of people doing gross things on airplanes and people pointing
- 23:56Speaker 2: it out. And here's one where, apparently, and this was
- 24:03Speaker 2: posted on social media, I guess on Reddit, where a
- 24:08Speaker 2: passenger said the woman sitting next to this passenger started
- 24:15Speaker 2: picking dead skin off of her bare feet during the flight.
- 24:20Speaker 2: The poster even shared a photo of her casually propping
- 24:23Speaker 2: her foot up and just going to work. Gross. Yes,
- 24:28Speaker 2: people on the plane obviously were disturbed by it happening
- 24:32Speaker 2: anywhere in their vicinity. The post drew a lot of
- 24:35Speaker 2: attention and they basically said that some people just shouldn't
- 24:39Speaker 2: be allowed to fly. Yeah, that's I mean, first of all,
- 24:47Speaker 2: shoeless on a plane without socks is pretty darn gross too.
- 24:53Speaker 2: I like the international flight so they give you the
- 24:55Speaker 2: socks that you can wear, and then you can just
- 24:57Speaker 2: throw them away because they've touched the floor of an airplane.
- 25:01Speaker 2: But yeah, picking off, I don't nobody needs to see that.
- 25:07Speaker 2: No one needs to experience that on a flight. On
- 25:10Speaker 2: your next trip to the beach, you want to make
- 25:14Speaker 2: sure that you are swimming in clean water and not
- 25:20Speaker 2: a lot of bacteria laden waters. So Environment America has
- 25:26Speaker 2: got a Safer Swimming report find sixty one percent of
- 25:29Speaker 2: coastal and Great Lake beaches had potentially unsafed bacteria levels
- 25:34Speaker 2: on at least one day back in twenty twenty four,
- 25:37Speaker 2: and the contamination often comes from sewage overflows and polluted runoff.
- 25:42Speaker 2: The Gulf Coast had the highest percentage of contaminated beaches
- 25:45Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four, followed by the West Coast and
- 25:48Speaker 2: the Great Lakes. Health experts warning swimmers that contaminated water
- 25:52Speaker 2: can lead to stomach illness, rashes, and respiratory issues, and
- 25:57Speaker 2: estimated fifty seven million people get sick each year in
- 26:00Speaker 2: the US from polluted water. But the group has updated
- 26:04Speaker 2: an online tool you can check conditions at your local
- 26:06Speaker 2: beach before you go in viron. It's a weird because
- 26:12Speaker 2: it says environment America, but it's E N V I
- 26:16Speaker 2: R O n T America dot org. But I maybe
- 26:20Speaker 2: it's missing the maybe it's missing some letters. Just google
- 26:25Speaker 2: Environment America. How about that? I really let me click
- 26:29Speaker 2: on this and see. Yeah, it's Environment America dot org.
- 26:31Speaker 2: It's a typo, so it's environment America dot org. All right,
- 26:35Speaker 2: we've solved that. We've solved it. You're good to go.
- 26:38Speaker 2: You're safe now if you just go to Environment America
- 26:43Speaker 2: dot org. That'll do it for this Tuesday edition of
