  Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, seventh day of July. I'm Wes, thanks for
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: joining me. Well, that's stunk. US men's soccer team went
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: down four to one last night to Belgium. People like
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: to do it had the outcome we were open for. Yeah,
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: of course we know, Sherlock. I'm not going to say
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: the other expression, but you know what I mean. Yeah,
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: nobody was wanting that outcome. I mean, I take that back.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Nobody that you know pulls for US sports without you know,
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: getting political with it, wanted it to go any other way.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: But the people who were mad because Trump intervened and
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: got the red card suspension overturned and all that or
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: helped get it. I don't know. All he did was
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: asked for them to look at it again. That's what
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: the team was asking, go back and look at it,
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: and that's what they did. I guess it was a violin.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: I don't know. You've probably heard the story, but there's
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: a red card happened in the previous game, and when
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: they reviewed it for the video replay, they reviewed it
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: in slow motion. That's not supposed to happen. In the
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: case of giving out a red card, and it's not
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: supposed to be the case when it comes to the
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: red card game suspension, so they overturned. It didn't end
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: up mattering in the game because Belgium clearly not just
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: had the strategy to win the game last night, but
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: just had the players executing the strategy strategy. That's one
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: of the things that when you hear people in sports
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: talk about, you know, things have to all just be
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: firing exactly right. You kind of get in a rhythm,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: team start playing a certain way, they get focused. You
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: may have a player who really steps up in certain circumstances.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: And I'm a New York Giants fan. I like Eli
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Manning a lot. I didn't care for him in college
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: at ole Miss, but you know, the Mannings tend to
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: be pretty likable people in general. I think. I know
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: some people don't agree with that, but Patriots fans aren't
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: big fans of him. But he's just one of those
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: guys not being in the Hall of Fame. It's kind
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: of a joke when you consider the performance that he
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: has had in playoff situations. Playoff runs twice in situations
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: where you just didn't think the team had everything that
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: they needed and he played out of his mind. Those
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: defenses kind of stepped up the right time for the teams,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: and you just have to have some sense of momentum.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: It's why when teams have a home field advantage in
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: football or any sport really and they go, well, maybe
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: they don't need to, you know, keep playing in that
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: last game, and some coaches will say, no, we're going
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: to play everybody in the last game, and you know,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: we won't go they won't maybe not play the whole game,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: but we're going to get them out there because we
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: don't want them just sitting and we want to keep
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: some momentum going. And it's also one of the reasons
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: why it seems to be a curse almost in Major
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: League Baseball. You win your division sometimes and you think, oh,
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: you know, we get a little rest, and then it
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: doesn't end up being the best thing. Sometimes in sports
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: you need things all firing the same way that they
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: have been when you've been successful, and they just weren't
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: for the US they were for Belgium played i think
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: better than they've played in a while, other than you know,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: their last game where they had to Senegal or whoever
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: they were playing where they had to come back and
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: win with goals late, and you know that's what they
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: did then. But they just played a solid game start
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: to finish. And sometimes the coach puts the strategy together
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: that the players aren't necessarily going to execute, or you know,
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: the opponent has figured out what you've been doing successfully
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: and has countered it. And that's what seemed to be
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: the case last night for the US. Doesn't take anything
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: away from the World Cup. All the host countries are out,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: and you know, Mexico and England gave us I think
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: the best game of the entire tournament so far a
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: couple of nights ago. Still some good soccer to be played.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: I know the interest level for many Americans will have
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: dropped off having the US out, and this is the
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: point where people kind of go, well, who are we
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: going to pull for? Who do you? Who do you
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: transition over to and pull for the rest of the way.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: A lot of folks will be pulling for Messi again,
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: just because you know, he's a legend. The Rinaldo fans,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: they've lost him after yesterday, and I guess that squashes
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: the conspiracy people that said that it was the fix
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: was in for Portugal. While they're out. Now the conspiracy
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: people that they don't give up on those things, they
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: would say, well, everybody figured out it was rigged, so
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: they had to get him out and make sure of that.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: So anyway, the tournament goes on. The I think people
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: visiting the US, all the feel good things that come
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: with that are still around, and it'll wind its way
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: down and we'll find out who's going to win in
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: the end, but it won't be the US. They're out.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Disappointing for a number of levels, but it is what
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: it is. A few things I want to talk about today,
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: it mayn't have been one thing. So I I have
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: to go back to Graham Platner again because we've gotten
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: this calling it a bombshell report that Graham Plattner, who
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: is the candidate Democrats have elected to be their candidate
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: to go against Collins in Maine, Susan Collins and Maine.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: And this is Graham Platner won the primary. And he's
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: got this track record. If you've listened to this show,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: we've gone through this. But just in case you know
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: you didn't know who this guy was, he's got a
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: very rocky pass that includes some accusations from women. He's
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: got a tattoo that he's covered up. That was a
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Nazi tattoo that he said. He claimed he didn't know
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: what it was. He didn't know. He's called himself a
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: history buff for a long time, but he says he
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: didn't know what that was. He's got this little spark
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: about him. And that's what Democrats kind of like. They're
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: looking for somebody to kind of be that Trump guy
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: that can be a little edgy, but also, you know,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: somebody who can win. That's all they want. They just
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: want somebody who can maybe win beat Susan Collins. They're
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: desperately looking to pick up a seat in the Senate.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: They feel like that's the one that's in play, that's
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: the one that maybe they can win. And a lot
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: of Democrats have basically said they're willing to look past
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: the Nazi tattoo, the really hateful things he said about
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: some members of the military, the accusations from women. There's
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: a huge list of reasons this should not be someone
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: that's even sniffing around being in the Senate in the US.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: But you know, this is this is what we this
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: is what we get now it's become this He's everything
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: that the left says that Trump is, except you know,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: this guy at Nazi tattoo and just a long list,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: a long list of reasons he shouldn't be the candidate.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: And he's been defended publicly by a number of high
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: profile people, other politicians. There's some that have backed away.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: Some Democrats have said, I can't support this guy, but
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: they know what it would mean to the party and
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: what they say it would mean to the country if
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: he could somehow win and end up flipping the Senate.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: But anyway, they feel like that seat is in play,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: so they'll do whatever. So now, yesterday there is a
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: this woman who had made accusations about sexual assault is
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: now using the word rape to describe her encounter with
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: Graham Platner. He says it absolutely didn't happen. She says
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: he was almost blackout drunk when the incident took place,
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: so she says that he wouldn't have really been able
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: to know anyway. This was I guess, originally reported by Politico,
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: and now I guess moving forward with the conversation about
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: him and these accusations. Now, of course, remember the left
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: has said when a woman comes forward and says this,
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: you have to believe them. Okay, you have to believe
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: the women. That's been the policy. But this is one
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: of those cases where, of course you're supposed to not
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: believe the women. I guess I don't know, because now
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: that she's using the word rape, uh, this should become
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: an even bigger, uh, even bigger controversy for him, which
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: it is. But I think it's largely people on the
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: right saying, how are we going to come to grips
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: with the fact that this is someone that many on
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: the left still want to win just because they're so
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: desperate and hungry for power. Now, this may just seem
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: like my typical grand platiner thing, and I just want
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: to point out that there's more to this story, and
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: there's more that should that should really upset us, because
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: it's not just looking past all of these things for
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: people that are kind of casually going through it. You
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: got I know people that you know defended Bill Cosby.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: I know people that defended Kevin Spacey, I know people
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: that can have defended a number of celebrities that have
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: been accused of some of these things, and you know,
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: they just it's kind of one of those they like him,
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: so they can look past it. This isn't just that,
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: that's not what's going on here. This is more than
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: that because this woman, and I apologize, her name is
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: I heard it pronounced three different ways yesterday Racicoat, maybe
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: Jenny Racicoat, and I may be butchering it, but I'm
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: going to go with that one because that seems to
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: be the one i'd heard most recently, at least. It
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: was asked by Jake Tapper in an interview about whether
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: or not the people that are saying that she's only
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: coming out because she's trying to damage his political career.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: Her defense of that is that she says she has
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: a huge moral conflict because she agrees with his politics,
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: and she says when she sees him on social media,
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: she gets really fired up about his message. There is
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: a quote she says, I agree with his politics. I
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: think we need somebody with those political stances and who
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: are willing to do the work. I see his political videos.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: They get me fired up as well. I understand why
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: people want someone like that in office, and I feel
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: like coming forward would essentially potentially take that away. And
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: that's why she says that she held off for so long,
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: and then she actually says she wouldn't tell people not
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: to vote for him, like she would not tell people
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: not to vote for him, because again she agrees with
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: his politics. Just for the record, she said that he
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: forced her to have sex with him against her will
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: and twenty twenty one, but she would vote for him.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: Maybe she's not saying she would vote for him. She
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: says she likes his politics and that she wouldn't tell
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: other people not to vote for him. Let's be clear
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: on that. I don't know that she actually used the
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: words I would vote for him, but she did say
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: that she wouldn't discourage people from voting for him. This
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: is where we are. This is where we have come
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: in two hundred and fifty years as a country. This
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: is what we've come down to. Is someone who says,
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: and let's let's for the purposes of this discussion, let's
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: take her at her word and say that he raped
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: her if that's the case, alleged rape that she says
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: he did. And she's not willing to say this is
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: a horrible human being. He shouldn't be voted for. She
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: won't come out and say that because she's again she's
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: committed to the party. I guess she's committed to It's
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: it's a bigger thing. It's a bigger thing that we like,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: we look past all these things, the Nazi tattoo, the
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: he's he's a he's a democratic socialist slash communist. Anyway,
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: let's look past that. Let's look past some of the
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: horrible things he said about women and the military, and
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: and and then you know, here we go, there's the
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: rapn We're just gonna look past that. That's and she's
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: the victim. She's the victim in it. This is bizarre.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: This is bizarre. So I would imagine you got people
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: on the left that would go, she's clearly she can't
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: be believed because she's But why would she come out
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: and say this if she wants him to win? It's it.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: The whole thing is so weird. This is where we
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: are are, two hundred and fifty years in as a country.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: We just barely get out of the holiday We come
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: out of the holiday weekend, two hundred and fifty years
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: of America, And I think, is there you know the
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: things that we do now that would have to disappoint
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: our founders, And you think, well, let's just see if
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: there's anything else we could do to disappoint the founders
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: were they able to know what we're up to today.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: And it's like, all right, hold my beer, let's see
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: where we are that people would be willing to either
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: vote for or encourage or at least not discourage people
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: from voting into the Senate. They're rapist that they say
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: is their rapist. Got to be clear on that. This
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: is an accusation. You have to be clear on that,
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: and this is alleged. But she says he raped her
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: and he was so drunk he didn't know about it,
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: and that she wouldn't tell people not to vote for him.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: That's where we are. Happy Birthday, America. Today's show brought

• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's some sort of installation issue that you've got

• 18:57
  Speaker 2: cars in there, or maybe you just want a little
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: man care. You'd like to be able to open the
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in. They
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: can do that for you as well. And again they
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: of having your car trapped inside your garage and your
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: And they do those as well. Seven oh six thy

  Speaker 2: Carol Morning Show right after the break, Well, here's an
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: interesting one for you. Apparently having kids makes you smarter.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: A new study on adult brains could be surprising for
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: some parents. Despite the exhaustion that most feel for all
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: the many emotional ups and downs that come with raising kids,
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: along with that lack of sleep and con worrying, parents'
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: brains are found to be stronger and smarter than the
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: brains of non parents. Studies tracking tens of thousands of
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: adults found that parents tend to have a younger looking
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: brain and stronger brain connections than non parents. Scientists think
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: that it's the experience of raising children with constant problem solving,
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: social interaction, and adapting to new challenges that helps build
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: what's called cognitive reserve. In fact, the effect appears in
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: both mothers and fathers, and can even grow stronger with
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: more children. So while parenting may feel like it's draining
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: your brain at the moment, over the long run, it
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: might actually help you stay sharp. So this is directly
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: in contrast to what we learn to be the case
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: because of the movie Idiocracy. You know, having more kids
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: dumbs you down. So it gives us a little hope
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: that we're not actually going I know some people believe
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: that we've been living out Idiocracy for a while, but
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: this gives a little hope. If you haven't seen that movie.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: By the way, it is quite funny, nice, good satire.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: For the people who think that it's directly some kind
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: of a shot on Donald Trump, it was made long
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: before Donald Trump was even I mean, he had talked
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: about running for president, but he was not in the
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: mix back then. But anyway, it's good movie. It's funny,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: But this is in direct contrast to that. So basically
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: scrapbooking is kind of having another time here as physical
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: keepsakes making a comeback, more people looking for ways to
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: preserve them beyond just in a phone screen. So instead
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: of letting just thousands of photos sit in a camera
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: roll or somewhere out you know, online and just out
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: there just didn't fold her upon folder online somewhere, many
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: are printing their face photos and saving ticket stubs from
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: concerts and sporting events, flowers from special occasions, and just
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: creating script books or junk journals filled with mementos. Part
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: of that trend being driven by a growing desire for
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: something tangible, people realizing that it may take a while
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: for the photos that they take to get printed and
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: then filed away in something where there's just this easy
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: place to keep them stored. And people are taking more
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: photos than ever, and while they have very few actual
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: copies of those photos that they can display or revisit,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: so a printed album or scrapbook or journal often offers
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: more personal ways to relive experiences and tell stories behind them.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: We have embraced we only have a couple of these,
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: and I got one from my mom. We've got a
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: very prominently displayed one now in our kitchen, but just
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: one of those photo frames that's a digital photo frame,
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: and it gives you a little bit of that because
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: you send photos to it and then you get to
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: kind of relive them. And of course we've got those
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: on our TV for screensavers and things. Anybody with like
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: a roku, you know, you can put some photos in that.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: So it does give you that opportunity to kind of
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: have those moments, just to relive some of those things
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: from the past. A new study suggests that the so
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: called good lies, you know, the little white lies, little
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: FIBs you don't want to hurt somebody's feeling, you want
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: to keep the peace, can basically come at a high
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: cost in relationships anyway. Researchers found that while these little
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: white lies may seem harmless in the moment, they can
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: gradually undermine trust create emotional distance between partners. People generally
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: appreciate honesty even when the truth is uncomfortable, because it
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: promotes authenticity and stronger connections. The study also found that
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: being open and truthful tends to improve relationship satisfaction and
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: emotional well being for both partners. So basically, when you
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: spare some one's feelings with a small eye. Might be
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: easier at the time, but honest communication usually the healthier
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: choice for building long term trust and closeness. It's it's work.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: It is, in fact harder to do this, so you
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: know that it's very you know you're you're exercising those
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: communication muscles. I guess is one way to do it.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: So in the long run, yeah, you're gonna benefit from it.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: But sometimes those white lies are just easy. They're just
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: easy when they're there, and nobody's feelings have to get hurt.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: No confrontations. That'll do it. For this Tuesday edition of
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: the show, thanks to our sponsors and patrons. Thank you
