  Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Thursday morning, a fourth day of June. I'm Wes. Thanks
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: for joining me, powering our way through this week, zipping
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: right along as we say, been a busy week for me.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: It has been a busy week. I'm ready to, you know,
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: get on and I got the Mate of Stars podcast
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: I'll do later today and then tomorrow I'll do the
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Friday show and then I'm ready to get into the weekend.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: And it's not that everything about this job. There's elements
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: of this job that you hear every day. There's a
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: lot of aspects of this job that you don't hear
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: every day. Things that I'm doing when I'm not specifically recording,
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: the things that I prep for this show every day.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: And I think, my brain, this has just been one
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: of those weeks where my brain just needs a little break.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: It just needs a little rest, because sometimes you dig
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: into things and it really makes your brain hurt. It.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: It's frustrating, it's confusing. Some of us are wired a
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: little differently than others. I am someone whose brain is
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: wired for some sense of justice and fairness in the world,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: and we don't always get that. We don't always see that.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: And I've got a little example of that I want
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: to talk about on today's show, just one of those things.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: Before I do that, I want to mention I told
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: you yesterday morning that I had a trip to Atlanta planned,
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: just taking my dad to the doctor in Atlanta. He
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: had a doctor's appointment there. One of his doctors happens
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: to be in the Atlanta area. And I mentioned earlier
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: in the week that his birthday was on the second.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: So yesterday we took him to the doctor and while
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: we were there, we took a moment to take him
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: to lunch and you know, celebrate his birthday at Mary
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Mac in Atlanta. That's a restaurant that we really like.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: My older brother Paul is the first one to get
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: to the uh to get into the tea house that
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: is Mary Max and we He's insisted, like we have
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: to go. Whenever Dad needs to go to Atlanta to
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: go to the doctor, we should just when we take him,
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: we should make sure we go to this restaurant. Now
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: we're all fans of it. Now, we're all excited about it.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Luke's disappointed he hasn't been yet. We got to work
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: out a trip up for him to go to this place.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: It's a it's a great restaurant. It's a very Atlanta place.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: It's one of those places you go in and there
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: are photos of celebrities on the walls who've been there.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: It's just a classic Atlanta place. Food's fantastic and one
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: of the things that really just blew me away about
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: the experience yesterday as we got in and I mentioned
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: to them that we were celebrating my dad's birthday and
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: that he was looking forward to eating there and that
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: he had just turned eighty one the day before. On
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: the second and the waitress was, you know, so like
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: and you you know, you go in there and you're
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: gonna get great, great service, great treatment while you're in there.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: And she looked at him and she said, you're eighty one.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: And he said, yes, ma'am. And she said, this this establishment,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: this restaurant is eighty years old. We just turned eighty.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: And she's like, that's pretty good. You're you're actually a
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: little older than the restaurant. So we had our meal
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: and we towards the end of the meal, she came
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: over to me and she said, what dessert do you
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: think your dad would like, and she gave me the options,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: and I thought he would probably like the banana pudding.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: That just seemed like something that he would like. And
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: so she discreetly went back in the back and took
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: a few minutes to get together a dessert for him,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: a banana pudding, and she brought it out and sat
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: it down and she said, here you go, Happy birthday,
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: did a little dance for him and said here you go,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Happy birthday. And it was nice and he was really
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: enjoying his banana pudding. Long day for him. That drive
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: up can be a lot bit of a strain, but
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: this is a doctor that we really want him to
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: go to, and he wants to go to, so we
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: know it's going to kind of be an ordeal to
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: get there and do everything we want to do, and
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: eating at this restaurant is nice, and having this special
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: dessert for him for his birthday was really nice. So
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: then a few minutes later she came back out again
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: to check on him, and she had with her a
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: card that was a birthday card, and she had taken
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: it around and all the staff had signed it and
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: written a happy birthday in it. It was just such
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: a nice moment. It almost got me emotional that they
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: did this for my dad, and you know they I'm
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: sure they do this for everybody that comes in on
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: their birthday, but it was just such a nice gesture.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: It's a little bit above and beyond. And I got
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: nothing against the places that you know, happy happy birthday,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: buh buh buh buh up. You know that. You know,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: most people they kind of know that that's coming for
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: them and they kind of groan and they go, oh no,
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: and then some people really get into it. But in
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: this case, this was something a little different and it
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: was nice and it just felt very personal. And I
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: kudos to them for doing that. I don't know how
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: long they've been doing that. I don't know that they
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: do that for everyone, but just kudos. So Mary Max
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: tea room in Atlanta, And this isn't like a paid
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: endorsement or advertisement, but I highly recommend it if you
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: haven't been been there in Atlanta, and it's it's like
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: less than a mile walk from Dragon Con. I mean,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying something for us to consider when we
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: get you know, about three months from now, as we
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: really get into the dragon Con season. We haven't started
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: talking about it yet, they've got a bunch of guests.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: They've already announced it's a big anniversary Dragon con We'll
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: talk more on that. But if you're a fan of
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Battlestar Galactica, you're a fan of Babylon five. There was
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: another group of guests that were just recently named. But
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: the guests are starting to fill in and you're going,
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: I see where this is starting to shape for this
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: convention for this year, but they're ready to really celebrate
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: it up with the anniversary for this year. But again,
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: kudos to Mary Max for taking good care of my dad.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: That was really nice of them, and a little personal,
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: little one step beyond. I mean, the dessert was nice.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: He was quite happy with the dessert, and then they
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: bring out a card and it's just like that, that's
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: just that personal, little touch, you know, that one little
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: thing that kind of makes it memorable, you know. I mean,
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: you can always go, yeah, we went to so and
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: so and they gave us a dessert for their birthday,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: all right, but this little extra and he's got the card.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: He kept the card. It was so nice. So anyway,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: so kudos to them for that. So the thing I
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: want to talk about today concerning fairness, and it's just
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: one of those things where when we talk about when
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: we talk about laws in this country that aren't enforced,
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: and we talk about laws that have been they've gone
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: through the process, right when we have laws that have
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: you know, followed the process how a bill becomes a law,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: when we've seen that play out and then get signed
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: into law, and you think, okay, well, this is the law,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: this is what's going to be enforced, and then you
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: find out that people aren't enforcing the laws and places
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: because they just can't be bothered. We like having a
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: number of undocumented people in the country living in our
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: state because when the census comes around, this will be
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: very important for us so that we can get more representation.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: We're trying to pad regions and districts and we say
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: we're a sanctuary city, we're a sanctuary state, whatever it is.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: The purpose in that is so that they can pad
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: numbers in those places and get more representation, even when
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: the people who live there that are actually you know,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: citizens or have legitimate green cards or going through the
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: citizenship process legally, those people that are working and bringing
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: in revenue for that city or state or wherever it is,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: and then they're leaving because in many cases they don't
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: understand what their tax dollars are going to, so they leave.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: And we've already had this brought up about Los Angeles.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: This came up when the mayor there, Bass said, you know,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: we're we're losing No or maybe it wasn't Bass, it
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: was one of the candidates for mayor. I think it
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: might have been Bass, but just pointing out, we're losing
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: the numbers and without the without the undocumented UH people
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: in the country, without counting them, we would we would
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: have had a depletion in our number. So we need
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: them to count. And that's laying it all out for you.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: They could not be telling you the plan and the
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: strategy any more clearly than that. So there's a number
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: of laws we hear about people breaking breaking into places
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: and they steal, you know, nine hundred thousand dollars worth
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: of things, they go running out the door, and people
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: don't even really prosecute. It's just they just get away
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: with it. I've already gone through this this week about
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: the wearing the masks, the way that protests are handled,
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: the way that people are allowed to violently protest in
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: many cases, and you're you're almost you're you're beaten. If
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: you're a journalist and you go in and you say, hey,
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: you got are getting paid. Here's a picture of you
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: or a video of you at ten different events, and
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: we know who you are and that you're on the
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: payroll for this company, and then people turn on you
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: and there to just beat you down. You have situations
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: where we have, you know, independent journalists that have gone
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: into places like Minnesota, in California and other places and
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: said we're going to expose the fraud that's taking place there.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: And you've got California passing laws that say you can't
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: even investigate if it involves immigrants, you can't do if
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: it's if there's undocumented immigrants involved in acquiring money, you're
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: not allowed to investigate the money they have or if
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: they're doing with it what they say that they're going
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: to do with it. And anybody who just believes in injustice,
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: anybody who believes that everyone should be feeded, treated fairly
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: and evenly, looks at this and just says, I don't
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: understand what's going on here. I don't get it. It's
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: baffling to so many of us that just think, hey,
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: I just want everybody to be treated fairly. That's been
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: the goal I am at Gen X from this generation
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: that we were raised to say, look, we have to
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: end racism, and we do that by treating everybody the
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: same and treating everybody fairly. And then we elected a
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: biracial president and then things just went crazy. It suddenly
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: became everything was unfair. No one, no white person could
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: could be without guilt concerning things that happened in the past,
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: even if they had nothing to do with them, even
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: if their ancestors had nothing to do with them, they
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: were the oppressors. And that anyone who was non white
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: could not actually be racist to white people because that
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: wasn't a real thing. That white privilege and all these
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: things come along, you think, where's the fairness that we
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: were promised put? We put in the equity. We hear
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: this term about we want equity things everything has to
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: be even outcome for everyone, and that's not what it's about.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: When you talk about building up equity in your home,
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: or building of equity at your job, or when you
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: talk about building of equity in society. We want things
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: to be fair. We want things to come out and say, hey, look,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: we should have an opportunity to say, these people all
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: treat everybody the same, and therefore these these are the people.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: This is the kind of society we want. These are
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: the people that we want in society. We don't want
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: the people who get to just make up their own
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: rules as they go. So on the subject of making
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: up your own rules as you go, the thing that's
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: happened this week that's really now, this is the latest
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: on this. We've been talking a fair amount this week,
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: and I don't want to do a whole show necessarily
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: on Graham Platner. But this is the guy democrats think
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: can take Susan Collins out in Maine, the guy with
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: the Nazi tattoo on his chest. It said, I didn't
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: know it was a Nazi thing. I didn't know. I'm
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: a history buff, but I didn't recognize that it's a
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: Nazi thing. I'll cover it up. And all these scandals,
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: all these things. He said. He's mocked Purple Heart recipients,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: he's mocked Pow, he's mocked all these people. He said
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: things that should be you would think, you know, at
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: least raise a flag on it. And I acknowledge the
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: fact that President Trump said something about John McCain. That
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: was enough for me to go, WHOA, what's going on here?
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: What is this comment? So the left went after it.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: They went after it hard. They hated John McCain, the
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: candidate he passed away or he became a foil to
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump, and they loved him for it. It's all
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: in that support. That's what's not fair. You can't have
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: this both ways anyway. So this guy has said things
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: about women, he has said stuff about racist things. The
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Nazi tattoo should be an indicator of where he is
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: on things With the left. They go, well, if he
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: can win for us, that's all that matters. And then
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: they find out that he's had this account on this
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: app called kick a kick profile while he was married,
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: a profile that has been it's it's not the kind
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: of place that you want to go if you're a
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: married man. It's not the kind of place you want
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: to go if you are intentionally trying to avoid any
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: kind of inappropriate conduct with underage people with minors. Doesn't
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: mean everyone on it is doing that, but it's basically
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: a site, an app that is it's been dubbed the
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: predator's paradise. That's what child exploitation groups, child safety groups
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: call it. People that are trying to prevent child exploitation.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: So anonymous messaging app, and when you find out that
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: he's on there, the question should come up, what is
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: he doing on there? Why was he on there? Why
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: was he posting pictures of himself with not fully clothed
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: In some cases, I guess he had a profile picture
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: where he was just wearing a towel. So some Republicans,
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: some National Republican Senatorial Committee staff, some other Republican staffers
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: showed up to protest outside the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: headquarters in DC, wearing towels and holding pictures of him
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: wearing his towel and just basically asking questions saying he
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: was messaging kids making these kinds of accusations. Bernie Sanders
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: basically said to them, are you with the Republican Party?
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: That's the first first issue I've got with this is
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: like since when, like if you ask protesters for left
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: issues and you're standing there wearing a mask covering up
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: your face threatening, in some cases you get asked, hey,
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: are you are you working for the left? You get
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: beaten up like nobody even wants to ask it. Bernie
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Sanders can ask the question, are you with the Republican Party?
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: It's a two sides. It's not fair to this. One
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: of them said, it doesn't matter Bernie Sanders trying to
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: turn this into a Trump thing? Are you talking about
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: morality and corruption with President Trump? It taught him to
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: have a nice day. This is the kind of thing
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: like this defense of someone who at this point, is
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: it really worth defending him? And why are we pretending
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: like it's okay for all the things that he's done.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: You cannot tell me that there is anyone, anyone on
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: the right they could have an actual Nazi tattoo on
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: their body showing it off with their shirt off. By
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: the way, that was the other thing is if he
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: was posting pictures online of him with no shirt on
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: to show off his tattoos. But you can't tell me
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: that anyone on the right. We got folks on the
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: right have been accused of being Nazis just for waving awkwardly. Right,
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: We had this whole thing of let's destroy Tesla's, let's
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: destroy Tesla factories, let's go after anything that Elon Musk
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: has ever touched because he waved awkwardly. Not a Nazi tattoo,
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: He just waved awkwardly. The double standard, it's not fair.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Any Are you Republican? That's the best he's got. Are
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: you Republican? Are you? Are you with the Republican Party?
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: And those are questions that people are told insists that
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: they should not be asking protesters. They shouldn't be asked
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: about their party affiliation because that could, of course get
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: you beaten up. Now, of course these guys there was
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: no No one was beaten up. They're standing there wearing
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: towels anyway, They're just that no Nazi tattoos on them.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: They're just asking the question and mocking the guy and
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: trying to raise awareness because apparently people aren't going to
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: at any point take a moment to acknowledge the fact
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: that this guy could be really bad news. Should he
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: be ultimately the person that they keep as the candidate?
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: And should he end up being a senator in the
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: US Senate? Should Should we all have a problem with that?
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: I think we probably should. Today's show brought to you

• 20:31
  Speaker 2: you by Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: your garage door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: regular maintenance that it's time for. It's always good to
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: get maintenance on anything that has parts that move and
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: have electronics. The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: can take care of squaring that away for you, and
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: while they're there, you can always ask them questions about
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: some of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: to your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: what you want it to be and you need some
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: repair work done to the outside door. Maybe you need
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: a brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: noise when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: some sort of insulation issue that you've got. With colder
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: or warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know,
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man cavid you'd
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: like to be able to open the door up and
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: not invite all the insects in. They can do that
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: for you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, and they do
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh sixty five eight forty five
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: hundred seven oh six three five eight forty five hundred
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: O dccolumbus dot com more West Carol Morning Show. Right
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: after the break. A new survey found fifty four percent
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: of pet owners wish they could talk to their pets
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: to find out what they think and feel I think
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: they mean the pets could talk to them. You can
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: talk to your pets. You're able to do that. I
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: guess it just means that you want them to be
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: able to understand you and respond. The number one question
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: that they would like to ask their furry friends. Again,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: you can ask it, they just don't understand it and
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: can't respond. Is are you happy? The top ten questions
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: people would like to ask their pets and get a
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: response and have them understand. I know I'm being really
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: technical here, Are you happy? Do you like your life?
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: Do you understand every word I say? What's your favorite
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: thing we do together? What is actually happening in your head?
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: Do you wish I did anything differently? I can guess
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: the answer to that. More food, more treats, more snacks,
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: more walks, all those things. I'm just guessing on that.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: What's your favorite type of food? Do you like me?
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: Does my catter dog like or love me? That's kind
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: of the same one, isn't it are asking about a
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: different pet. I don't understand that question. What family members?
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, I understand the question, I just don't understand
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: who they're asking it to. Which family members do you
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: like and dislike some of these things. I think we
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: can kind of figure out, right, can't we figure out
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: some of these things just by you know, taking care
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: of your pet and loving your pet and paying attention
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: to them. I don't know. Are you familiar with this
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: trend called sub and a bag or the chip bag sandwich.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like the walk in taco. You familiar
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: with that where you put all you take your like
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Dorito's or some kind of corns in a bag and
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: then you put all your taco ingredients on top of it.
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: You don't actually have a taco shell of any kind.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: You just have the ingredients in there, and effectively the
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: chips are what becomes your taco shell, right, So it's
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: a walking taco. Well, the chip bag sandwich involves putting
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: everything you would put into a sub sandwich, the meat,
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: the cheese, the less, the tomatoes, whatever, into a bag
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: of chips. Mix it all up with the potato chips,
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: and then you eat your sandwich right out of the bag.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: I guess you're cutting out the bread portion of all
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: of it. So it's very similar to the walking taco,
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: but it's a sandwich. I could do it. I could
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: eat that that sounds good to me. I also like
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: the idea people that do the thing where they cut
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: a pickle, like a long pickle like into a slice,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: and then they put sandwich ingredients on top of that,
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: and then they cut another pickle to be the top
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: of the sandwich and they eat it that way. I
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: like that as an idea another way to cut if
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: you're cutting carbs or you're trying to take that kind
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: of stuff out. But I don't know I would do it.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: I would give it a shot, and I don't know
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: what took us so long to figure that out right.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Uber drivers give more than seven billion rides a year,
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: and with that many trips, it's no surprise people will
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: leave things behind. They have their Lost and Found Index
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: that they release at Uber every year, the annual report,
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: and it highlights some of the most common and most
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: unusual items forgotten in the back seat in the last year. Phones, luggage, keys, wallets.
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: Those all top of the lists of everyday normal items
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: that you would think people might leave behind. And most
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: forgetful riders are in New York, Miami, Chicago, San Francisco.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: I think in some ways there are places that maybe
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: you've had to travel a great distance to get to.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: You're tired, and there's a lot to see. Maybe when
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: you get in the car. I don't know. I'm just
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: speculating on what might make you leave things behind in
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: those places. Now, some of the strangest things that drivers
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: are left behind after a ride, I guess in the
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: last year in this current report, dentures with two teeth,
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: breast milk, a Donnie Osmond group picture, an ankle monitor,
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: four hundred and twenty donuts, George Washington's hospital discharge papers.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: I assume this would be a copy of those and
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: not the originals. A mini fridge, a brand new one,
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: some live fish, a mannequin, two trees, a police radio,
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: a seventy five pound fish tank, grass, a bald cap.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: A dishwasher. I'm assuming that's a mechanical one and not
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: a person who washes dishes. A coffee table, a wizard
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: wand a shot poll Pelvis implants twenty pounds of duck sausage.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: This is a great list. A child's prosthetic eye. He's
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: gonna need that. A meat slicer. Again, I assume it's
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: the actual device and not a person who slices meat,
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: because a person who works. A meat slicer is also
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: a meat slicer, a kitchen faucet, handcuffs, and two wedding gowns.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: If one person left behind two wedding gowns, an interesting
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: day for that uber driver. That'll do it for this
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: Thursday edition of the show. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons.
