Transcript
- 0:01The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start your
- 0:05day and you're listening to the West Carrol Morning Show. Monday morning, twenty
- 0:12fifth day if September. I'm Wes, thanks for joining me, kicking off
- 0:17another week together. We're now officially into fall, that's coming gone. I
- 0:25tend to be on the side. I've talked about this a little bit.
- 0:27I tend to be on the side of the you know, the monthly breakdown.
- 0:31I think of September, October, November is being fall. I don't
- 0:35feel like you have to wait for the official day. I know, we
- 0:37get into the whole astronomical calendar thing and people say, Hi, you gotta
- 0:43wait for the first official day, the actual autumnal equinox. But I don't
- 0:49think we have to do that. We don't have to wait for that.
- 0:51You just it's it's fall when it's September, and in here it's relative.
- 0:55In the Chattahoochee Valley where we record the show, it's relative because it can
- 1:00still be crazy hot right up till Christmas. Everybody says it's so much hotter
- 1:06now than it ever was. It's hotter now than it's ever been. This
- 1:11time a year. They throw those terms around all the time, every chance
- 1:14they get. I don't know about at the moment, but they'll they'll find
- 1:17a reason to say it's climate change, hotter than it's ever been. But
- 1:22I remember as a kid on Christmas Day riding my bike in shorts and no
- 1:27shirt because it was that hot outside and I was sweating. I remember that
- 1:34that happened when I was a kid. So I don't know that every day
- 1:37is the you know, hottest day in the history of hot days. You
- 1:42know. I think some days it's you could just tell outside it's hotter.
- 1:46That perception game is part of the strategy, you know. They make you
- 1:49feel like it's, oh, it's just so much hotter, or there's so
- 1:53many of these hurricanes, and then you look back and you're like, about
- 1:57where we normally are. This is part of hurricanes. It's not more.
- 2:00We haven't had more of them, you know. Or they say, oh,
- 2:04my gosh, you got the wildfires. What caused the wildfires? Oh,
- 2:07it's climate change is what cost it. I thought it was, you
- 2:10know, something to do with a mistake by the power company. Yeah,
- 2:15yeah, but they were doing it because of climate change. They made that
- 2:19mistake. They were they were overcompensating for something climate change related. Or when
- 2:23you know, someone comes in the country and kills somebody and they've come across
- 2:28the border illegally, and I know it's because of climate. They came up
- 2:30from wherever they were because it was just so hot and they had to come
- 2:35here and kill people. That's what they do. They say that, and
- 2:38it's all just this perception game that's being played constantly all the time, all
- 2:45the time, no matter what we got going on. Remember that movie.
- 2:47That movie came out and it always snowed. The whole planet was covered in
- 2:51snow. I remember that The Edge of Tomorrow. Is that what it was
- 2:53called? One of those movies, Cliffhanger. That wasn't it. That was
- 3:00a different movie. That was Sylvester Stallone Cliffhanger. Oh my gosh. They
- 3:04need to make a sequel to that, don't they. He's he's sequeled out
- 3:07all of his other movies. They even doing, uh you know, he's
- 3:10got the the expendables and it's like the expend four a bowls or you know,
- 3:16because they like to put the number in the title and it just makes
- 3:20it hard to read. But they could go back and do that. They
- 3:23could go do a cliffhanger too. Christians later in that I forget who the
- 3:30other other person was in that. I think it was Christians later, he's
- 3:34not doing anything. He did that, mister Roboto show, what's he doing
- 3:38right now? They're not making another Robin Hood, are they anyway? Uh
- 3:43so? Uh. They had the movie about the Oh Man, the planet
- 3:47is covered in ice and everybody said, oh my gosh, what what is
- 3:52the cause of that? And said global warming because that's the you know,
- 3:57it doesn't matter what happens. Back then, they were still calling it global
- 4:00warming. And then they took some of the CGI footage of the ice shelves
- 4:03and things in the movie that We're just falling and everything happening, and Al
- 4:09Gore put that in his documentary Inconvenient Truth. That was the CGI footage of
- 4:15ice melting. They put that in the movie as if it was real.
- 4:18And then he won an oscar. So I don't really know how that works.
- 4:23You could go back and you could take away Reggie Bush's Heisman Trophy,
- 4:27right, they can do that. Why can't they go back and take away
- 4:30the oscar? Hey, you had some fake stuff in your documentary we're taking
- 4:32it away from you. Why wouldn't they do that? You know, they
- 4:35took OJ's away. That was for different reasons. That was different. That
- 4:40was that was less about cheating and you know, more about murdering. I
- 4:46guess that was different. It's a whole there was a different reason altogether.
- 4:48I don't think al Gore murdered anybody that we're aware of. I don't know.
- 4:54I don't think he did. Have we heard about that? Who knows.
- 4:57I want to talk about speaking of perceptions. I was trying to segue
- 5:00this into perceptions of things because I want to talk about the perception by some
- 5:05on the left, some in the Democrat Party, who see various groups of
- 5:11people as the same, no matter what like they they're the same, even
- 5:16though they're different. And they have events where they want to celebrate groups.
- 5:25They want to celebrate differences. They want to go into, you know,
- 5:28whatever the heritage month is, whether it's pride a month or it's uh,
- 5:33you know, Black History Month or Hispanic History Month, whatever the month is,
- 5:39Asian Pacific Island or history. They want to talk to that group of
- 5:44people and and really pander to them and say, hey, we're the Party
- 5:46of you and we have been for a long time. Right, They want
- 5:51to do that, and then they want to make sure that you're trying to
- 5:56you know, you have to do just enough to them. That's their option.
- 6:00I don't think it's true necessarily of the people that they're pandering to,
- 6:03although sometimes it certainly seems that way. I did a whole show at last
- 6:08week, about maybe a week and a half ago about just the fact that
- 6:14how many years do you not get any results, but you keep voting for
- 6:18the same people that say that they're they're saving you, they're fixing the problem.
- 6:24Remember the whole that white savior thing that they talk about in for movies
- 6:30and books, especially movies. Though you know, they had Green Book,
- 6:38and of course it just came back up again with the blind Side. They
- 6:41wanted to go after the Twoey family and say, how dare they have this
- 6:46movie where they're portrayed as the white saviors for this, uh, this kid,
- 6:53this black kid on the streets needed some help and they came in and
- 6:56they helped him. And it just plays up that whole white say of your
- 7:00thing, and it's it's called you know, the Michelle Peiffer as a school
- 7:02teacher. Ah, you can't do that anymore. I don't know can they
- 7:05Can they make those movies anymore? I don't know if they can, no
- 7:10matter how interesting the story is, no matter how sincere the story is,
- 7:14no matter how good intentions it is. H and I you know, Greenbook,
- 7:18it's a good movie. All right, it's a good, good movie.
- 7:21But oh no, And there were people that were upset. How how
- 7:25can people vote for that to win Best Picture? So you have that as
- 7:30a story in a movie and people are critical of it, but it plays
- 7:33out you know, every election cycle with the Democrats in charge, we have
- 7:39a president who you know, he's playing right along with it, and he's
- 7:43he's fumbling his way through it. And we'll get to that in a second.
- 7:46That's where this is all headed, because he fumbles through everything. But
- 7:49when the Democrat Party for you know, sixty years, has been saying,
- 7:54hey, we're we're going to fix this for you, how's that not the
- 7:58same thing? How is that not the twoy? How is that not Green
- 8:01Book? Like? Are we not trying to play the white savior role?
- 8:05And and and come in and say, hey, you know, black America,
- 8:09Hey, Hispanic America, you guys are with us, right, let's
- 8:13go. They tried to They tried to do this thing with the Asian community
- 8:20with COVID. They tried to do that because that hasn't been one that they
- 8:24locked in. You know, that wasn't one that just you had an automatic
- 8:28in their mind, an automatic. And I think it's silly to just think
- 8:31that they I mean, obviously we know what the numbers are when it comes
- 8:37to Black Americans and how they vote in Hispanic Americans, how they vote.
- 8:41They didn't quite figure it out with Trump. They didn't quite understand that.
- 8:45I guess in either election with Trump, they didn't quite have a good grasp
- 8:50on where their loyalties were. But they couldn't quite lock it in with the
- 8:56Asian Americans, right, They just couldn't grab it and hold on to it
- 9:03and squeeze it tightly the way that they did with the others. And they
- 9:07tried hard, didn't they. They really tried hard during COVID. Oh,
- 9:11they got to stop Asian hate, these ignorant white supremacists or hate and Asians
- 9:18because of what Trump said about the China flu and on the all that stuff
- 9:26with the Hong Kong fluy or whatever, anyway. So I don't I don't
- 9:33know. I just repeated it. But you know, there were people that
- 9:35they were trying to say that Asian hate is on the rise and it's only
- 9:39happening because of Trump and things he said, and we have to band together,
- 9:43and I just never had traction. It never really caught on. I
- 9:48mean in some areas, sure there's people that are gonna. I think they
- 9:52probably already had their loyalties anyway. So let's talk about the president, and
- 9:56let's talk about he. Of course, when appropriate, he speaks to the
- 10:03Congressional Black Caucus, and now that we're you know, this the time of
- 10:09year for him to address the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, and oops, I don't
- 10:15think he knows who he's talking to. And I'm gonna play it. I
- 10:18want to get you to hear what he says as he's addressing them. Now,
- 10:20he began the speech referring to them correctly, and then he goes on
- 10:26to something. It's really Key's sort of addressing random people in the audience and
- 10:30things, and he's trying to call him out, and then he basically sets
- 10:33himself up that he's He basically says, I haven't sinned yet and then he
- 10:39makes his mistake, So here he is. I'm proud to have so many
- 10:43other alumnious incisions serving all across our administration. Well, we have Alma Costa,
- 10:50executive director of the Caucus for five years. Remember my White House team.
- 10:56I especially want to thank a great leader, Tom Pere as my director
- 11:00of inter Governmental Affairs. Congratulations and night awar Days. If there's her sister,
- 11:05Norma, Sister, I don't know where you are, but bless me,
- 11:09father, but I have not sin so far tonight. I want you
- 11:13to know. Look, you're known as the mother Terrace of Texas, and
- 11:18sister I know Sister Norman, who lives the lessons She's nuns taught me growing
- 11:22up, lessons based on the Gospel of Matthew, Feed the hungary, care
- 11:28for the sick, welcome strangers they're going. My dad taught me. And
- 11:35I mean to sinceer that my dad. You say everyone, everyone is entitled
- 11:39to be treated with dignity and respect. Congressional Black Caucus embodies all those values.
- 11:45Just think of the work we've done together on civil rights, labor rights,
- 11:48healthcare, education. You think the people in the crowd are going Did
- 11:52he just say Black Caucus or do they just let it slide? Does it
- 11:56stand out? Does it jump off the page anymore? Is there any I
- 11:58mean, he's a self described gaff machine. He says that he said that
- 12:03a few times. You think it jumped out at him, that he addressed
- 12:07them as the Congressional Black Hawcus. Do you think they even caught it?
- 12:11Uh? Do they just? Is it? Like you know, if you've
- 12:15ever had anybody in your life that sort of you know, misstates your name
- 12:20and you get those relatives there, they're you know, typically kind of more
- 12:22senior relatives, and they they're talking and they'll address you. My dad does
- 12:26it sometimes where he's talking and he'll he'll refer to one of my brothers by
- 12:31my name or by another brother's name, and then you just you do you
- 12:37don't even hear it. You know what he means. You're aware of it,
- 12:41but you don't necessarily really even acknowledge it or hear it. Do you
- 12:43think that that's it's at that point with the gaffs, because I do wonder.
- 12:48I mean, I'm sure some of the people there were like, what
- 12:50are you just saying? Did he just but do you think any of them
- 12:54in attendance there to hear him speak. Do you think any of them appreciate
- 12:58the fact that he's basically just kind of saying, you're the same, You're
- 13:03the same, You're gonna vote for us anyway. We got you, You're
- 13:05you're you're sticking with us, You're part of the group's just gonna stick with
- 13:09us. It's the same difference. It's not really a big mistake. I
- 13:13just misspoke a little bit. I called you by the wrong sibling name.
- 13:16That's all I did. You're just you're loyal to us. We know,
- 13:20we know we got you, We know how much we the bare minimum that
- 13:24we have to do to keep you around and then look out for our best
- 13:28interest, the bare minimum we have to do to be the white saviors and
- 13:33take care of you. And I like too. I mean, he does
- 13:37an event like this and then he has to do the pats on the bag
- 13:41about look at how diverse our administration is. As we talked about this also
- 13:46not too long ago, with the is it more important to get the right
- 13:50people to do the job, or is it more important to check the most
- 13:54boxes with what people look like or who they they love, who where their
- 14:01where, their bedroom interests are like, which is more important? Is that
- 14:05more important or is it more important to get the people who are capable of
- 14:09doing the job and doing the job, well, we see it when you
- 14:13have I don't know, and I don't I don't know. There's an investigation
- 14:18and it should be. And there's still a lot going on with this submarine
- 14:20company. But you know, we talked about, you know, we're going
- 14:24to do these dives and we're not going to hire you know, fifty five
- 14:28year old white men that are former military. We're looking for people that have
- 14:31stories to tell. And then there's a horrible tragedy like this and you can't
- 14:35help but wonder, well, who is who is a who's driving the sub
- 14:41Was it somebody with a story to tell? Or was it the most qualified
- 14:46person? If that person happened to be a fifty five year old ex military
- 14:48white man, could there could could people still be alive? I mean,
- 14:54the question comes up when you realize that those kinds of statements were made by
- 14:58the guy running the company at some point, right or when a bank collapses
- 15:03and they say that people running the bank didn't have a clue what they were
- 15:05doing. They have no history in banking. They don't really understand finance.
- 15:09They don't know any of this. But you check some boxes. You said,
- 15:13look at what we did, look at how diverse we are. So
- 15:16if as a country the goal is to you know, brag here in front
- 15:20of the congressional Hispanic caucus, right or black caucus, depending on you know,
- 15:28how you see them. And in this particular case, he misspoke.
- 15:33I mean, there's no doubt that that was It wasn't intentional. But I
- 15:37guess the question I have is, well, which is it? And which
- 15:41is worse? Is it? Because he just kind of sees him as the
- 15:46same, you know, he sees it's one group, another group, but
- 15:50they're kind of the same. They're in for us, and he can confuse
- 15:54them one for the other because he sees them as the same. Or is
- 16:00it the bigger issue? And I think everybody kind of sees the true elephant
- 16:04in the room, all right, the shrew issue at hand here, and
- 16:10it's that we probably have a cognition problem in the White House. And and
- 16:18you know, this isn't the first example. There's been a lot of these.
- 16:22This wasn't just one little oops. I will remind you the previous president
- 16:27had the occasional oops, and you know, people didn't shut up about it.
- 16:30It was months of ah. He congratulated the state of Kansas for the
- 16:36Chiefs win in the Super Bowl. What a moron. You know. Kansas
- 16:41City one of those cities. It's partly in Kansas, mostly in Missouri.
- 16:45The biggest parts of it that the football team, I guess, is in
- 16:49Missouri, but part of the city is in Kansas. I realize should have
- 16:56addressed Missouri at least both of them. I think a lot of people didn't
- 17:02even realize part of Kansas City is in Kansas. But anyway, he made
- 17:07his comments about the Colorado being on the border, and you know, clearly
- 17:12I think if you really paid attention, he was talking about the Colorado River.
- 17:18But I thinks he doesn't even know where Colorado is. You know which
- 17:22is worse misspeaking about the Colorado River, misspeaking about the Kansas City Chiefs or
- 17:30calling a large group of Hispanic people black, and in this context, like
- 17:37which is a bigger gaff in that regard? I think this one's a little
- 17:41bigger. But you know, if they don't care, it's not going to
- 17:45bother me. I'm just worried about is he really paying attention, does he
- 17:49know what he's talking about, or does he see these two groups, as
- 17:56you know, easily in for him moving forward, or at least pretending that
- 18:00they are. But I did appreciate the fact that he comes in and acknowledges
- 18:03that he hasn't sinned yet, and then he pulls out that gaff after he
- 18:07throws out a couple of you know, brags about diversity in his cabinet.
- 18:12So that was a nice move. I liked that he pulled that off.
- 18:15There also just one more quick thing on the subject of importance of addressing things
- 18:23like who's sleeping with who? This story about the guy who lectures and he
- 18:29talks about Batman and the history of Batman and the first illustrator for Batman,
- 18:36and he was asked to at a school. He was speaking at a school,
- 18:40and he referenced the fact that the illustrator, the artist involved making Batman
- 18:47originally had a son who was gay. I don't understand the purpose of bringing
- 18:52that up, but he brought it up intentionally in front of school kids and
- 18:55was asked to not do it, and he said, I won't speak about
- 18:56it anymore. I'm done. I'm not speaking about to anymore the schools that
- 19:03are going to have this issue with it. I don't understand why it was
- 19:06brought up. I don't understand the significance of speaking about the sexuality of the
- 19:15son. It just it doesn't make any sense. Uh. NBC made a
- 19:21huge deal about the story. Mark Tyler Nobleman is the guy's name, and
- 19:30uh, you know Forsyth County, this is all happened here in Georgia,
- 19:36and just wanting to talk about the fact that the guy had a gay son,
- 19:41the you know, co creator guy who helped make it happen. And
- 19:45of course they, oh, they don't want him to talk about the fact
- 19:48that the kid was gay. That proves it's don't say gay. What is
- 19:53the what is the relevance to the story? Am I missing something in the
- 19:57story? Why don't we have to Why is he talking about his son at
- 20:00all? What is the connect? And I think he was just basically pointing
- 20:06out that he had a gay son who who later died, uh, you
- 20:08know from AIDS and but but what's I mean is that something that needs to
- 20:15be addressed with kids? What is the purpose in that part of the story.
- 20:22I guess I am curious but to know like what the full story is.
- 20:27But I mean, he's he lectures and talks about Bill Finger and this
- 20:32is, you know, one of the guys involved in creating Batman and you
- 20:37know, didn't get credit for a long time. And I guess Nobleman wrote
- 20:45a book called Bill the Boy Wonder, the Secret co creator of Batman.
- 20:49So yeah, upset because they wouldn't They didn't want him to talk about the
- 20:56gay son. And I don't know that the gay son had any involvement in
- 21:00creating Batman. If he did, then I would think that would be okay,
- 21:04you know, maybe that's a Pride Month story, right, But that's
- 21:10not the issue. And you know, just the fact that it was so
- 21:17important, it was more important than speaking at the school than it was anything
- 21:22else. So I just thought I were mentioned that because that kind of ties
- 21:25into this, uh you know, the White House kind of bragging about,
- 21:27well, this is who we have on staff and it's important that we acknowledge
- 21:30this, and it's not really so much important about what's best. Maybe the
- 21:33story about the guy who co created Batman didn't get credit for it and worked
- 21:41on Batman and then you know, some people fought for him to have his
- 21:48credit involved in Batman. Maybe that's a story that kids could hear and say,
- 21:53oh, you gotta be careful with your your work, your creative work,
- 21:56your copyrights. I don't know the connect why we had to talk about
- 22:03the gay sun of of a finger and the son's name Fred. I mean,
- 22:11the reason to just bring it up just conversationally, it's it's it's it's
- 22:15sort of like when you have the folks at Disney that have said, you
- 22:18know, as a producer, I get to just slip some of that gay
- 22:22agenda stuff in the background, and I'm really proud they'll let me do it.
- 22:26Is it necessary? Why? What's the point? So here? It
- 22:29is in the context of a state that has restrictions about when you can talk
- 22:33about sexuality, and this seems like it was used appropriately, doesn't it.
- 22:37Today's show brought to you by Columba State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center,

- 24:48Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take care of squaring that away for you,
- 24:52and while they're there, you can always ask them questions about some of the
- 24:56maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door. Maybe your curb
- 25:00appeal isn't quite what you want it to be and you need some repair work
- 25:03done to the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage door completely.
- 25:08Maybe it's making a noise when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe
- 25:12it's some sort of insulation issue that you've got with colder or warmer weather.
- 25:18Sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation
- 25:22where you'd like to add a screen door to your garage door system that you
- 25:26can put down and you can use your garage space as a sort of outdoor
- 25:32but indoor. You know, if you like to work on your own cars
- 25:33in there, or maybe you just want a little man caved, you'd like
- 25:37to be able to open the door up and not invite all the insects in.
- 25:41They can do that for you as well, and again they do after
- 25:44hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped inside
- 25:48your garage and your garage door won't open and you need somebody to come help,
- 25:52and they do those as well. Seven oh sixty five eight forty five
- 25:56hundred, seven h six three five eight forty five hundred O DC Columbus dot
- 26:02Com More West Carroll Morning Show right after the break. So another accuser.
- 26:15Another woman has come forward last week with accusations against British comedian Russell Brand.
- 26:22She said that he exposed himself in two thousand and eight when she was working
- 26:26in the same building in Los Angeles where Brand was hosting his BBC radio show.
- 26:33There have been multiple women that have come forward now making accusations about him.
- 26:37I don't know all of the stories, and you know, if he
- 26:45has done inappropriate things to women that deserves to be brought to light. If
- 26:55he is, certainly, if he's guilty of these things that should be brought
- 26:59to light. I do find it interesting that some of these stories are pretty
- 27:06old. I mean you go back into the the you know, pre twenty
- 27:10ten, so thirteen, fourteen, fifteen years ago for some of these stories,
- 27:15and we're just now hearing about them. Now. What's happened to suddenly
- 27:18cause people to say we have to, you know, come an out Russell
- 27:22brand as this monster. What's different now than was the case then? Could
- 27:32it be he's shown up in a few places that you probably wouldn't have seen
- 27:37him years ago. I remember seeing him one night that he was it was
- 27:42billing that he was going to be on Greg Gutfeld show on Fox News.
- 27:49I mean, and he wasn't going on, and you know, being uber
- 27:53conservative, I think he's probably in that group of people who is certainly would
- 28:00identified as you know, left of center, maybe even you know pretty left
- 28:04of center, like not even really close to the line. But like Elon
- 28:10Musk has pointed out, like Bill Maher, has pointed out when everything shifted
- 28:15so far to the left and you shifted what was actually center, it caused
- 28:18them to then be right of center in some ways because the line moved.
- 28:25You know, you start pushing everything to the left, and then suddenly you're
- 28:26looking around and you go, wait a minute, now I'm on the other
- 28:30side. How did that happen? I don't know that Bill Maher has specifically
- 28:33said that, but I know he's certainly spoken out against how far left and
- 28:37crazy some of the ideas now are for the left. But I know Elon
- 28:41Musk has addressed that. By the way, all three of these people now
- 28:45hated, hated, like these are people that were beloved not too long ago,
- 28:51now hated. Elon Musk hated right, Bill Maher hated by the more
- 29:00traditional people on the left. He just is the people who would have stuck
- 29:06up for Russell Brand now diving in going after him, and they just really
- 29:14really going hard. And you know, again, I'm not defending him.
- 29:18I'm not saying the accusations aren't true. I'm just pointing out the fact that
- 29:21things are's a little bit different, and now all of a sudden, you've
- 29:25got people that are believing things. I want to also mention this because it's
- 29:30a pretty massive accomplishment that has just happened over the weekend yesterday morning, the
- 29:41Osiris rex mission, which was a craft that was sent I think like a
- 29:47mosquito. It was sent and it landed on an asteroid called Benu and gathered
- 29:55together some materials. First of all, landing something like that on an asteroid,
- 29:59huge accompt plishman to begin with. And then it was able to gather
- 30:03all sorts of samples and materials and then came back to Earth and it arrived
- 30:07yesterday, So now begins the process of going through all of these samples and
- 30:12things that they discovered and found on this asteroid. What a remarkable accomplishment and
- 30:18science. Now, I am just giving you the brief overview on the Made
- 30:23of Stars podcast that I host with doctor Shaun Cruizen from Columbus State University's Coca
- 30:30Cola Space Science Center. He's the executive director there. He's a professor at
- 30:33Columbus State. This is right in his wheelhouse. He and I have been
- 30:37talking about this mission on radio and on Made of Stars now for over five
- 30:42years. A huge culmination of this we were texting each other yesterday about Osiris
- 30:49Rex returning and just a huge accomplishment and the information, the data that they
- 31:00hope to get from this. They've already made a lot of discoveries about Benu
- 31:06and Sean talks about that in the show. So wherever you're listening to this
- 31:08podcast, if you check out Made of Stars, the latest episode, we
- 31:12talk a little bit about the mission and the return, what was taking place
- 31:18on Sunday. Now we record on Thursdays most weeks, so we were talking
- 31:22about it, saying this is what's going to happen on Sunday, And of
- 31:26course those things all happened, and we'll talk more about that in the coming
- 31:32weeks, but definitely worth checking out there on the Made of Stars podcast.
