Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start
0:05
Speaker 1: your day, and you're listening to The West Carrol Morning Show.
0:11
Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, October, first time West Thanks for joining me,
0:17
Speaker 2: kicking off another month together. And we're now five weeks
0:22
Speaker 2: today away from election day. Five weeks today, and then.
0:31
Speaker 3: The ads can stop.
0:33
Speaker 2: The bile and vitriol and hate nastiness can go away.
0:39
Speaker 2: By the way, if Anthony Scaramucci being in a campaign
0:43
Speaker 2: ad telling you not to vote for Donald Trump has
0:47
Speaker 2: an influence on your decision to vote one way or
0:50
Speaker 2: the other, go ahead and just get yourself a tack
0:53
Speaker 2: hammer in it, yourself right in the temple, because if
0:55
Speaker 2: that is an influence, if that is something you're using
0:59
Speaker 2: to make make your mind up on how you're gonna
1:01
Speaker 2: decide to vote in this election, God help us all.
1:05
Speaker 3: We're all in a whole lot of trouble.
1:10
Speaker 2: But the Harris campaign thought, you know what, this is
1:12
Speaker 2: a guy that we spit on, We talked horrible things
1:16
Speaker 2: about him, told you he was the worst human being
1:18
Speaker 2: in the world while he was working for Trump. But
1:22
Speaker 2: God knows we're gonna use him in these campaign ads.
1:26
Speaker 2: We would like to find a way to utilize his
1:31
Speaker 2: expertise as a valid endorsement opportunity, somebody who can step
1:37
Speaker 2: in and say, this is the guy we want to
1:40
Speaker 2: have an influence on this election and its outcome. And
1:45
Speaker 2: that particular ad I've only seen like a thousand times
1:48
Speaker 2: anytime I've tried to stream anything. That's where you start
1:50
Speaker 2: getting the really the nasty ads. There's you know, some
1:54
Speaker 2: on both sides, but the Harris ads are very much
1:58
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris loves everybody, She's wonderful, she's an amazing human being.
2:04
Speaker 2: We need to have Kamala Harris making the world a
2:07
Speaker 2: better place.
2:08
Speaker 4: Donald Trump wants to make the worse place. Kamala Harris,
2:14
Speaker 4: that's your vote. That's where you got it. Just ants
2:17
Speaker 4: Tony Scaramucci. Hey, I'm boom for Kamala. That's who that's
2:22
Speaker 4: my best, my Scaramuccie voice. So we're five weeks away
2:26
Speaker 4: and then all that stuff can be put to rest
2:28
Speaker 4: and hopefully, you know, we get it right this time,
2:33
Speaker 4: and we could be, you know, just a couple of
2:36
Speaker 4: months away from inauguration day and you know, getting things
2:39
Speaker 4: on track, getting the economy somewhat back on track as
2:43
Speaker 4: best as you can after record setting and I mean
2:47
Speaker 4: record setting inflation. That by the way, when they tell
2:51
Speaker 4: you inflation's gone down, it's better, it's great, it's wonderful.
2:56
Speaker 4: Just remember it's the rate that's gone down. It's not
2:58
Speaker 4: the cost of things. They're not dropping prices. And no,
3:01
Speaker 4: it's not just the companies that are the reason for
3:05
Speaker 4: the inflation and the cost of things going up. It's
3:08
Speaker 4: not those greedy corporations. That's not You can't blame just them.
3:14
Speaker 4: There's a whole lot of other reasons. One of those
3:16
Speaker 4: reasons is on the ticket on the other side. That's
3:18
Speaker 4: telling you to listen to Scaramucci. Listen to him, Listen
3:23
Speaker 4: to what he has to say concerning his endorsement.
3:28
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not it's not just me, as it.
3:31
Speaker 2: It's a weird person to jump in and ask for
3:37
Speaker 2: some sort you know, the old communications guy in the
3:39
Speaker 2: White House.
3:41
Speaker 5: It's not just me, is it.
3:43
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a flag should be a flag, I
3:45
Speaker 2: think for everybody.
3:46
Speaker 5: But I don't know, maybe it's not.
3:48
Speaker 2: Maybe we're five weeks away, five weeks away from navigating
3:53
Speaker 2: through these last you know, thirty five days, and then
3:58
Speaker 2: we'll be an election day and then hopefully we'll stop
4:01
Speaker 2: trying to rip each other apart. But you know, it
4:03
Speaker 2: all depends on I don't know, like a hundred factors.
4:07
Speaker 2: There's a lot, there's a lot. We just we just
4:09
Speaker 2: kind of hope it gets better. But you know, we're
4:11
Speaker 2: all just ready for this to be done and hopefully
4:15
Speaker 2: with the correct outcome and we can get things on track.
4:19
Speaker 3: We just we you know, we gotta do that. We
4:22
Speaker 3: gotta do that.
4:23
Speaker 2: I remember telling some people while we were overseas and
4:27
Speaker 2: we were in Australia in twenty nineteen, and I can
4:30
Speaker 2: remember telling people. I remember telling if family, loved ones, friends,
4:36
Speaker 2: you know, when they were talking about our election and saying,
4:38
Speaker 2: you know, what's it going to be like next year?
4:40
Speaker 2: And I'm like, well, just know this, if it ends
4:43
Speaker 2: up being someone other than Trump and the White House,
4:46
Speaker 2: you know, if it's a Biden White House, we are
4:49
Speaker 2: going to you probably won't see us for a while.
4:52
Speaker 2: I think it's just that we're going to be tightening
4:53
Speaker 2: down the belt. Things are going to get a little trickier,
4:57
Speaker 2: it's going to be more expensive. Of course, COVID happened
5:01
Speaker 2: and all hell broke loose, and you know how that
5:02
Speaker 2: all went. But you know that's been the case. So
5:04
Speaker 2: we'd like to go back. We'd love to go back soon.
5:08
Speaker 2: We're just gonna need a little break when it comes to,
5:11
Speaker 2: you know, people not stepping on the throats of the
5:13
Speaker 2: middle class and just trying to push everybody down a notch.
5:18
Speaker 2: Just put everybody in their place, take some of their money,
5:21
Speaker 2: send it to places other than the people who really
5:25
Speaker 2: needed in America, you know, American citizens and those sorts
5:28
Speaker 2: of things. Anyway, on that subject, on that subject, I
5:34
Speaker 2: haven't talked a lot about the hurricane and the aftermath
5:41
Speaker 2: because it's really sort of been an ongoing.
5:45
Speaker 5: Situation.
5:46
Speaker 2: So let's talk a little bit about the aftermath of
5:52
Speaker 2: Hurricane Helene. And I know we're in that position where
5:56
Speaker 2: there are people now saying, well, you know, there's been
5:59
Speaker 2: a lot of deaths, a lot of destruction, there are
6:04
Speaker 2: people that are currently suffering. There are people that you know,
6:09
Speaker 2: especially there's a lot of damage, a lot of damage
6:12
Speaker 2: in the southeast. I've got a friend who lives in Asheville,
6:16
Speaker 2: North Carolina. He wasn't there. He was actually in Florida
6:22
Speaker 2: for a funeral, and the funeral kept him from being
6:27
Speaker 2: there as the storm made its way into that area
6:32
Speaker 2: and At last check, he's in Florida. He's not able
6:35
Speaker 2: to He may be now in Georgia, but hasn't been
6:38
Speaker 2: able to go home. He doesn't really know exactly what,
6:41
Speaker 2: you know, the situation is when he gets home, He's
6:43
Speaker 2: not sure not at last check. I haven't talked to
6:46
Speaker 2: him this morning, but I talked to him yesterday and
6:49
Speaker 2: that was the latest on what he.
6:50
Speaker 5: Was dealing with.
6:52
Speaker 2: And I've got other friends in the Carolinas that are
6:55
Speaker 2: dealing with a lot of destruction, a lot of damage.
6:57
Speaker 2: Some of them are looking at this from the perspective of,
7:00
Speaker 2: you know, hey, we're blessed. It was some damage to
7:02
Speaker 2: the roof. I know someone who has a home there
7:06
Speaker 2: who said, you know, we lost power, but we're on
7:09
Speaker 2: the same line ultimately that the hospital is on. So
7:13
Speaker 2: when the need to get their power back on, pushed
7:17
Speaker 2: anyone on that line's power back on a little sooner.
7:20
Speaker 2: There's a lot of people still dealing with a lot
7:23
Speaker 2: and people that lost, you know, in some cases everything,
7:28
Speaker 2: and people have been looking for ways to help. And
7:31
Speaker 2: you know, there's the first thing that we can start
7:34
Speaker 2: with is they need your prayers.
7:37
Speaker 5: They need.
7:39
Speaker 2: First and foremost, you know, the people that are dismissive
7:42
Speaker 2: about the need and importance of prayer. Prayer does a
7:45
Speaker 2: few things. Prayer one lets them know that we care.
7:50
Speaker 2: I mean, that's part of it. Prayer is also about us.
7:53
Speaker 2: It's an internal thing that we do to help us
7:56
Speaker 2: be better and remember that there are other people that
7:58
Speaker 2: need to have the needs prioritized above our own. Prayer
8:03
Speaker 2: is something that is good for society. When people dismiss
8:06
Speaker 2: it and say, ah, stuff your prayers, they don't understand,
8:11
Speaker 2: and that's, you know, that's something that they have to
8:13
Speaker 2: work through. I guess, or they just you know, don't
8:16
Speaker 2: appreciate people having faith in their lives, which is a
8:20
Speaker 2: whole other topic, but it's important. It's important for us
8:25
Speaker 2: to put others first. It's important for us to remember
8:30
Speaker 2: that they're, you know, those of us who weren't greatly affected.
8:34
Speaker 2: And if you were one of those people who wasn't
8:36
Speaker 2: greatly affected by the storm, you should be thankful, you
8:40
Speaker 2: should be appreciative, and you should remember that there are
8:42
Speaker 2: many who were. So just a few things. If you
8:45
Speaker 2: are looking to support beyond being able to just offer
8:53
Speaker 2: up prayer, there's also a few organizations that you can
8:58
Speaker 2: and I invite you. I'm just going to pull from
9:00
Speaker 2: a list of places that I have either worked with
9:05
Speaker 2: or have been suggested as places. Some of these places
9:09
Speaker 2: I can't specifically vouch for, I can't tell you. I
9:13
Speaker 2: can tell you that I know there are many churches
9:16
Speaker 2: throughout the Southeast, really I guess around the country, but
9:19
Speaker 2: especially around the Southeast, that are looking for opportunities to
9:24
Speaker 2: support people who lost everything, people who lost a lot,
9:28
Speaker 2: people who lost and when I say everything, loved ones
9:31
Speaker 2: included people that lost pets. There are a lot of
9:35
Speaker 2: organizations that are One organization in particular that I've done quite.
9:40
Speaker 5: A bit with over the years, American Red Cross.
9:42
Speaker 2: That's that could be your first stop if that's where
9:45
Speaker 2: you'd like to go, And of course it's that Red
9:49
Speaker 2: Cross is one of the organizations. When you think of
9:51
Speaker 2: Red Cross, there's probably you may think blood, you may
9:54
Speaker 2: think there's things that you may think of immediately with them,
9:57
Speaker 2: but keep in mind they're there working ground zero, helping
10:02
Speaker 2: with food, shelter supplies, emotional support. Blood is certainly a
10:06
Speaker 2: component of all of this as it plays out, there's
10:09
Speaker 2: always a need for that as well. So that is
10:12
Speaker 2: an organization where you can make a contribution if you
10:16
Speaker 2: are financially able and want to do that. Salvation Army
10:20
Speaker 2: same deal, food, drink, shelter, spiritual care, emergency services not
10:25
Speaker 2: just to survivors but also rescue workers. You can donate
10:30
Speaker 2: through Salvation Army. United Way is another organization that you
10:35
Speaker 2: can make a donation to and you can actually talk
10:38
Speaker 2: to someone in your community with the United Way if
10:42
Speaker 2: that's something that you would like to do and find
10:45
Speaker 2: a way. I'm going to mention this one because some
10:48
Speaker 2: people like it. I don't like, and I don't know
10:52
Speaker 2: if they've waived any of their fees and things. I
10:56
Speaker 2: am not a fan of gofund me for a number
10:59
Speaker 2: of reasons. Oftentimes they don't allow gofundmes to be set
11:06
Speaker 2: up and they have a political bias or lean to
11:09
Speaker 2: them as an organization. Another thing that go fundme does
11:13
Speaker 2: is it's regular business. It is a business. So if
11:16
Speaker 2: you're making a donation to a family, maybe that's trying
11:19
Speaker 2: to pay some bills just on a regular le gofund
11:22
Speaker 2: me account and they say, hey, we're looking for some support,
11:26
Speaker 2: gofund me is going to take a portion of that,
11:29
Speaker 2: and truthfully, in those sorts of situations, you're better off
11:34
Speaker 2: making a donation directly to that family.
11:36
Speaker 3: You're better off.
11:37
Speaker 2: Handing them one hundred dollars bill than sending one hundred
11:40
Speaker 2: dollars to go fund me. That's going to get filtered
11:43
Speaker 2: out and they're going to get their money. But again,
11:47
Speaker 2: it's a business. That's what they do, that's how they
11:50
Speaker 2: run there. But there is a GoFundMe Hurricane Relief Fund
11:55
Speaker 2: go fundme that is set up if you would like
11:59
Speaker 2: to do it that way, it's there. It's a hurricane
12:02
Speaker 2: really fun for go. Again, it's not something I'm going
12:06
Speaker 2: to support or endorse. I'm just offering that up as
12:11
Speaker 2: a as an option if that's something that you'd like
12:14
Speaker 2: to do. There's a volunteer based organization that works alongside
12:19
Speaker 2: the local you know volunteers and other organizations that are
12:23
Speaker 2: there called All Hands and Hearts. They have a halene
12:26
Speaker 2: fund started as well some another organization that you can support.
12:30
Speaker 2: There are others I recommend looking through. You know, if
12:34
Speaker 2: your church is doing something, if your church has a
12:38
Speaker 2: bigger body, if it's part of a larger union of churches,
12:42
Speaker 2: and you know, that's possibly a way that you could
12:44
Speaker 2: do it. I do think that we are better off
12:48
Speaker 2: when we support in these situations and we go through
12:52
Speaker 2: our churches. I think that's the best possible option that
12:56
Speaker 2: we can go through if we're able to do that,
12:58
Speaker 2: and it ensures a few things. It basically says, look,
13:02
Speaker 2: you know where the money's going, you know what the
13:04
Speaker 2: money is going for. It's not going through an organization,
13:06
Speaker 2: it's not going to be filtered out for salaries and things.
13:09
Speaker 2: And again, go fund me maybe waiving their money. I
13:11
Speaker 2: don't know what they're doing in this particular situation, but
13:16
Speaker 2: as a rule of thumb, I don't typically think go
13:19
Speaker 2: fund me when I'm trying to support people. So those
13:22
Speaker 2: are some options that are available for you. Just keep
13:25
Speaker 2: that in mind. Our prayers certainly a part of it.
13:29
Speaker 2: But if you're able and you want to support them,
13:31
Speaker 2: those are some ways that you are able to do that.
13:34
Speaker 3: Now. I would also like to add a couple.
13:37
Speaker 2: Of thoughts on this, because I do think that we
13:39
Speaker 2: are in a situation right now where we'd all like
13:42
Speaker 2: to give probably more than we're able to give. And
13:47
Speaker 2: a little bit of just our topic for the day
13:49
Speaker 2: beyond that is I think that and I've done shows
13:52
Speaker 2: on this before, and that I've spent much more time
13:56
Speaker 2: discussing this as a topic. But I do think our
14:01
Speaker 2: current administration, and I think many many in our government,
14:08
Speaker 2: especially folks on the left, feel that it should be
14:11
Speaker 2: the role almost solely of our government to solve people's
14:16
Speaker 2: problems when they're in need. I think that's an unfortunate
14:20
Speaker 2: approach to it. I think that they're taking away something
14:24
Speaker 2: that we as citizens should be able to have, which
14:27
Speaker 2: is our ability to give and donate. See when we
14:33
Speaker 2: give and when we're able to do something, even if
14:35
Speaker 2: it's something that you would say, you know, isn't financial,
14:39
Speaker 2: whether it's through prayer or through your time when you're giving.
14:45
Speaker 2: And going back to my emphasis on prayer, in the
14:47
Speaker 2: fact that people are so dismissive of it, we could
14:50
Speaker 2: spend our time in prayer just focusing on our needs,
14:54
Speaker 2: and many times we do. Many times we say, you know,
14:59
Speaker 2: a boy, want that raise at work? Boy, I would
15:02
Speaker 2: like to get you know, that promotion. Boy, I want
15:07
Speaker 2: you know, my uncle Joe to to not be sick anymore.
15:11
Speaker 2: Those kinds of things that we you know, and and
15:14
Speaker 2: they're very in a way, and not necessarily in a
15:19
Speaker 2: bad way, but they're very you know, self focused in
15:23
Speaker 2: a lot of ways because we we have a tend
15:25
Speaker 2: and that's fine. We're not discouraged from talking to our
15:30
Speaker 2: creator about the things that we need in our lives.
15:33
Speaker 2: That's something that we do. But in some cases when
15:37
Speaker 2: we take time to put our needs aside and pray
15:40
Speaker 2: for someone else, there is a reward there where we're
15:44
Speaker 2: able to say, look, I understand there others that and
15:47
Speaker 2: many have you know, filtered out a lot of those
15:50
Speaker 2: quote unquote selfish prayers to mainly focus on praying for others.
15:56
Speaker 2: And you know, I'm not in any way telling you
15:59
Speaker 2: that you're wrong for praying for those things that you
16:01
Speaker 2: want or that you need in your life, because ultimately
16:04
Speaker 2: the goal there is about that connection. It's about that conversation,
16:09
Speaker 2: it's about communicating with God. But there's also that element
16:16
Speaker 2: of when we do give of our time, and there's
16:19
Speaker 2: a reward that comes with giving of our time making
16:22
Speaker 2: a donation that way. There is also a reward that
16:26
Speaker 2: comes with financially.
16:27
Speaker 5: Being able to support.
16:29
Speaker 2: In a perfect world, we'd be able to do all
16:31
Speaker 2: three of those things. In some cases, we're only able
16:34
Speaker 2: to do one of those things. In some cases, we're
16:38
Speaker 2: only able to do two of those things.
16:40
Speaker 3: So just know that.
16:45
Speaker 2: When you do it and the reward that comes for
16:48
Speaker 2: you for doing it, just in the satisfaction of knowing
16:51
Speaker 2: that you were able to help, that you were able
16:53
Speaker 2: to do something. That's something that I feel has been
16:56
Speaker 2: taken away from us by our government. It's something that's
16:59
Speaker 2: taken away when we get taxed, and then the money
17:04
Speaker 2: that we're taken from us in taxes is ultimately used
17:08
Speaker 2: to support those in need. And I think that's part
17:12
Speaker 2: of why we have attacks on churches. I think that's
17:15
Speaker 2: part of why, you know, religion has taken the beating
17:18
Speaker 2: that it has is because I don't think that many
17:21
Speaker 2: in our government, even if they're religious, they don't want
17:23
Speaker 2: churches to be what they once were, which was the
17:27
Speaker 2: support system for those in need. When a family could
17:30
Speaker 2: eat and didn't have the money for groceries, even over
17:34
Speaker 2: an extended period of time, churches would step up. People
17:37
Speaker 2: would make donations and they would make sure that the
17:39
Speaker 2: family had food to eat, They would make sure the
17:41
Speaker 2: kids had presents at Christmas. They would make sure that,
17:44
Speaker 2: you know, a family that was in a fire had
17:46
Speaker 2: closed and had somewhere to stay, and you know, we
17:50
Speaker 2: just now live in a world where you have basically,
17:53
Speaker 2: ultimately sadly vote people that want your vote, and they
17:58
Speaker 2: want you to know that they were the ones were
18:00
Speaker 2: able to provide for you, even though it wasn't them.
18:02
Speaker 2: They took the money from someone else and gave it
18:04
Speaker 2: to you, And it puts many in a position where
18:07
Speaker 2: they say, I'm strapped, I don't have the money right
18:10
Speaker 2: now to make those donations, and we have to rely
18:13
Speaker 2: on the government to be the one to bail those
18:15
Speaker 2: people out. And that's why I say it's not a
18:17
Speaker 2: bad idea to go through your church, find out what
18:19
Speaker 2: your churches are doing, or you know, if, like I said,
18:23
Speaker 2: if your church is part of a larger church body,
18:26
Speaker 2: what they're doing in ways that things could funnel through
18:28
Speaker 2: them and ultimately be of assistance. And I think it's sad.
18:33
Speaker 2: I think it's a great tragedy that that's one of
18:36
Speaker 2: the things that it feels like has been taken away
18:38
Speaker 2: from us, as our ability to reap those blessings from
18:41
Speaker 2: the things that we try to do to support other people,
18:45
Speaker 2: because the money just gets taken from us and gets
18:48
Speaker 2: given to someone after it's filtered through bureaucrats, after it's
18:53
Speaker 2: been filtered down and then ultimately you say, well, how
18:56
Speaker 2: much of the money that you took from me in
18:59
Speaker 2: order to feed people actually made it to those people,
19:02
Speaker 2: and how much of it went to bureaucrats who decided
19:04
Speaker 2: who was going to get the money for food and
19:06
Speaker 2: who wasn't. And we don't get the blessings of being
19:09
Speaker 2: able to help someone directly. And I think it's really sad,
19:12
Speaker 2: and I think it's really upsetting, especially as we look
19:14
Speaker 2: at times like this when people really need our help,
19:17
Speaker 2: and a lot of people right now just don't have
19:18
Speaker 2: the money to help. Today's show brought to you by
19:20

21:32
Speaker 2: care of square and that away for you, and while

21:37
Speaker 2: of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to
21:40
Speaker 2: your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what
21:44
Speaker 2: you want it to be and you need some repair
21:46
Speaker 2: work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a
21:48
Speaker 2: brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise
21:52
Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
21:55
Speaker 2: sort of installation issue that you've got with colder or
21:58
Speaker 2: warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
22:03
Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
22:05
Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
22:08
Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
22:10
Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know,
22:14
Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
22:17
Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man cavid. You'd
22:19
Speaker 2: like to be able to open the door up and
22:21
Speaker 2: not invite all the insects in. They can do that
22:24
Speaker 2: for you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
22:27
Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
22:29
Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
22:33
Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, and they do
22:36
Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh sixty five eight forty five

Speaker 2: hundred seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred
22:42
Speaker 2: O dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show right
22:46
Speaker 2: after the break, Well, it's the simple things in life
22:59
Speaker 2: that we often take for granted, just little basic things
23:02
Speaker 2: that maybe make us happy or bring us some small
23:05
Speaker 2: little piece of joy. And here's a list, according to
23:09
Speaker 2: a new survey of things that they say that Americans
23:14
Speaker 2: find as simple joys, just little basic things that you
23:18
Speaker 2: may take for granted when they don't happen, or I'm
23:21
Speaker 2: sorry when they do happen, But when they don't happen,
23:23
Speaker 2: then you realize, oh, they're missing from your life. Simple
23:27
Speaker 2: joys that you should take time to appreciate, Simple joys
23:29
Speaker 2: that people do take time to appreciate. The top of
23:33
Speaker 2: the list is just waking up after a good night's sleep.
23:36
Speaker 3: It's been a while.
23:37
Speaker 2: I don't get a lot of really good night's sleep.
23:40
Speaker 2: I was just talking with someone the other day and
23:42
Speaker 2: they were telling me that since their kid was born,
23:45
Speaker 2: they don't sleep very well. They just sleep much lighter,
23:49
Speaker 2: and it's a whole different experience. And yes, that's definitely
23:52
Speaker 2: true of Jill and I both. And you know, this month,
23:57
Speaker 2: in you know, three weeks or so, Jake's going to
23:59
Speaker 2: turn sixteen. So yeah, sixteen years of not getting very
24:03
Speaker 2: good sleep, probably more so than that for Jill because
24:07
Speaker 2: of pregnancy. So yes, waking up after a really good
24:11
Speaker 2: night's sleep, catching up with an old friend or loved one. Absolutely,
24:15
Speaker 2: I don't you know. It's just one of those simple,
24:17
Speaker 2: easy things.
24:18
Speaker 5: That you can do.
24:20
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's just a phone call. Sometimes it's sitting down
24:23
Speaker 2: for a beverage or a meal or whatever. Speaking of beverages,
24:26
Speaker 2: next on the list, cover of coffee. Yeah, I mean,
24:30
Speaker 2: do we take it for granted that it's just going
24:31
Speaker 2: to be there, our friend cup of Joe in the morning,
24:36
Speaker 2: watching a favorite TV show, The smell of freshly brewed coffee.
24:40
Speaker 5: That kind of goes with the other one, though.
24:42
Speaker 2: But the smell of coffee, hearing your favorite song come
24:46
Speaker 2: on the radio. Yeah, all of those things, I think,
24:50
Speaker 2: are is there something that did not make the list
24:54
Speaker 2: that's missing from there? And I mean, you know, when
24:56
Speaker 2: you get to eat your favorite meal at your favorite restaurant,
25:00
Speaker 2: I mean that's one for me. You know, you're hearing
25:03
Speaker 2: favorite song come on the radio. It was always great
25:05
Speaker 2: to me when I would be at a concert and
25:07
Speaker 2: you hear maybe it's a maybe you get a deep
25:11
Speaker 2: cut favorite song from a band and they do it,
25:13
Speaker 2: and that's always a really sweet moment. But that's getting
25:15
Speaker 2: it's it's kind of not the everyday things that happen.
25:18
Speaker 2: Those are a little deep, deeper cut period. But Hasbro
25:21
Speaker 2: has launched its first ever Monopoly drinking game, called the
25:25
Speaker 2: Monopoly Board Crawl, and it's a bit of a twist
25:29
Speaker 2: on the classy game. Lets you sip your favorite drinks
25:31
Speaker 2: while navigating the reimagined board with spaces like rooftop, bar,
25:35
Speaker 2: dance floor, VIP section. Drinking an alcoholic beverage during the
25:40
Speaker 2: game isn't necessary, but could make playing it over the
25:45
Speaker 2: holidays a little more enjoyable or a little more bearable.
25:48
Speaker 2: I don't know, but there you go. That's the new
25:51
Speaker 2: version of monopoly. Scientists have may have found an unexpected
25:58
Speaker 2: elixir in the quest for Eternal youth. Pond scum. Researchers
26:04
Speaker 2: from the University of Kent in England and the University
26:06
Speaker 2: of Seville in Spain discovered that a colorless compound called
26:11
Speaker 2: phytone found in microalgae could have anti aging properties. They
26:18
Speaker 2: tested it on tiny worms and found that it helped
26:20
Speaker 2: them to live longer, they resisted oxidative stress, and it
26:27
Speaker 2: even showed promise in protecting against Alzheimer's. Maybe the Fountain
26:32
Speaker 2: of youth was just full of this microalgae, this ponds come.
26:37
Speaker 5: You know, maybe just maybe.
26:39
Speaker 2: That had some actual truth to it.
26:42
Speaker 5: I don't know.
26:43
Speaker 2: A twenty year old man in Taiwan upset that his
26:46
Speaker 2: mother threw out his comic book collection that he's taken
26:49
Speaker 2: her to court. The two were living together and the
26:51
Speaker 2: mother was tired of her son's growing comic collection taking
26:55
Speaker 2: up so much space, so he she recycled them without
26:58
Speaker 2: his permission. When he came, mommy was so angry he
27:01
Speaker 2: called the police on his mom. He took her to court.
27:03
Speaker 2: Judge ordered the mother to pay one hundred and sixty
27:05
Speaker 2: dollars for failing to respect her son's property. The mother's
27:08
Speaker 2: trying to reconcile with the son. So far he has
27:12
Speaker 2: not been willing to one hundred and sixty dollars failing
27:18
Speaker 2: to respect property. I guess the first question is is
27:21
Speaker 2: that her house or his house do they share? I
27:23
Speaker 2: don't know. It depends on the living situation. Um, all right,
27:29
Speaker 2: let's let's just get into this.
27:31
Speaker 3: Because this is a decluttering thing.
27:32
Speaker 2: It feels like the correct transition into the next story.
27:34
Speaker 5: It's a very different version, though.
27:36
Speaker 2: They say, if you're having a hard time deciding which
27:39
Speaker 2: items in your closet to get rid of, they say,
27:41
Speaker 2: use what's called the poop rule.
27:45
Speaker 3: Here's the way the poop rule works.
27:46
Speaker 2: They say, if if the object had poop on it,
27:50
Speaker 2: would you wash it off and then keep it or
27:54
Speaker 2: would you throw it away? And that's simple. That's as
27:57
Speaker 2: simple as it gets. The poop rule says, if it
28:01
Speaker 2: had poop on it, what would you do with it?
28:04
Speaker 2: Wash it often, keep it, or throw it away. I mean,
28:09
Speaker 2: if the comic book said poop on them, then I
28:12
Speaker 2: guess the mom may have been justified, but probably not.
28:14
Speaker 5: I would think there was no poop on the comic.
28:16
Speaker 2: Books That'll do it. For this Tuesday edition of the show.
