  Speaker 1: Start your day with Wes. You're listening to the West
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Carrol Morning.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Show, Tuesday morning, twenty third day of December. I'm Wes.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Thanks for joining me. Seinfeld fans know that this is Festivus,
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: although according to the Festivus lore, the actual day would
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: move around and it wasn't an official day, but on
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: Seinfeld they were celebrating it on the twenty third. Therefore,
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: today is Festivus. If you're celebrating, do you have the poll?
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Are you ready to air grievances? Seems like that aspect
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: of it at least many could get behind. I don't
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: know does anything productive really come from airing of grievances?
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: It might make you feel better for a minute, and
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: then does it really last?
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: I don't think so. I mean, it depends on who
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: you're airing the grievances to. I suppose there are a
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: few people. Well, I guess I've aired grievances too. Feel
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: pretty good about it, still feel pretty good about it
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: most of the time, though not so much.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: Just the reality of all of it.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Heard from many of you after yesterday's show, Thank you.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: I didn't really come into that with anything specific planned
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: and talking about my friend Chuck Leonard aka Charlie Mashburn.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: I was asked after the show yesterday got a text
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: message from my dear friend Jesse, who she and I
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: did the Wess and Jess Cast podcast many many moons ago,
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: about forty seven episodes of that. I don't know why
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: we stopped there. I mean, get to fifty, for cry
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: out loud, what is this amateur hour? We did shows
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: together on radio and then wed that podcast together. She
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: was part of my NQLN podcast that I do off
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: and on. You know, for a while. She has a baby.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Now she's a mother and her schedule doesn't really allow
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: so much.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Time for that.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: So anyway, she reached out to me yesterday and asked
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: if I would like to come in and be a
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: part of a streaming thing that I wasn't aware of this,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: So I be honest with you. The TV station where
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Chuck Leonard was employed for almost forty years or whatever,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: thirty plus years. I don't know exactly how long he
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: was there. I know he was there all of my life,
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: feels like certainly.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: I mean I met the guy.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: About forty two years ago and he was working there then,
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: So that's kind of you know, I was. I think
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: I was eight when I met him. But his old
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: station and that group of TV stations has an NBC
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: and a Fox affiliate, and anyway, they are working to
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: have some sort of content provided on a stream that
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: they do online.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: I guess it's around the clock. I wasn't aware of that.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: I like it. Good for them. I think that's a
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: great idea.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: They were, I guess, doing some segments where they were
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: remembering Chuck and they were bringing in some of his
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: former co workers and friends, and they asked me, Jesse said,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: they would like to know if I would like to
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: come in and do that and get interviewed by Ben Stanfield.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Ben Stanfield is the morning guy who replaced Chuck when
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Chuck retired, and I guess Chuck was a big part
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: of how Ben got hired. So it's a nice opportunity
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: to go in talk with a guy who replaced the
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: guy that old saying in sports when it's a coach
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: and they say, you don't want to be the guy
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: who replaces the guy. You want to be the guy
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: that replaces the guy that replaced the guy. Well, Ben
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: is the guy that replaced the guy. But I like Ben.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Ben was part of The Nutcracker a year ago. We
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: talked a little bit about that on this particular segment.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: It felt really more like a podcast. I wasn't really
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: sure what the format of this was, but walked in
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: and just sat in and we talked about Chuck and
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: we talked about my friendship with him, some of the
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: same sort of things that we talked about on the
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: show yesterday. We're part of this segment I did with Ben.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: But it was nice to be able to again share
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: some more stories about Chuck and some of my experiences
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: with him over the years. I told you this, I
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: think yesterday, and I mentioned this probably I know I
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: mentioned it to Ben. I don't remember if it was
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: in the segment. But I haven't really allowed the emotional
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: part of this to kick in yet. I have compartmentalized this.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: It is there, everything's in nice, neat little boxes, and
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: I just haven't allowed myself to feel about it yet.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: It's coming.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: It almost came out yesterday during this streaming segment that
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: I was recording, and I told Ben, you know, if
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: you Barbara Walters me and get tears out of me,
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: this is might get ugly because it's just been something
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: that I've just not allowed myself to There's too much
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: going on at the moment, and it's something that I
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: and I'm not alone, but it's something that I have
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: the ability to do. I can just say, you know,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: I'll feel about this later. And sometimes when I feel
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: about it later, it may be quite a bit later.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: So I don't know when it's going to come out.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: I just know that it's gonna come out. But I
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: was relieved. I think that it didn't come out out
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: there on that particular segment, but we were remembering good
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: things and having laughs. And that's the thing about my
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: friendship with Chuck is a lot of times it was,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: you know, largely about us trying to make each other
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: laugh and then you know, one of us telling a
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: story to the other, and that was just.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: The way things were. We spent a lot of our
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: time doing that.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: So anyway, I appreciated them giving me a chance to
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: go on and talk about him and it was pretty
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: pretty a nice experience. There was some therapy to that,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: just being able to get some things out. So this
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: is going to be a condensed show, I know, because
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: this is basically my Friday show.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: It's it's Tuesday. But this is my Friday show.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to be, you know, doing a Christmas
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Eve show or a Christmas Day show or a Boxing
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: Day show. So this is the final show for the week,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: and I've gotten together a couple of stories to do.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: Won't be the regular and I know I said that
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Yesterday ended up being just a regular link show, but
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: I did want to do a couple of stories. I
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: did have a few that had kind of been lingering
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: around for a couple of weeks that were some good
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: stories that I wanted to, especially on the good news side,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: and you know, we do the good news, then we
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: follow that with some weird news. I got about two
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: really kind of strange and bizarre news stories.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: But I want to start with this story because.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: It is the holidays, this is what you want this
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: time of year. This one might get me emotional. So
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: there's a family in Lincoln, California that a few weeks
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: ago they celebrated the reunion that they had with their
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: dog called Choko, who vanished in twenty twenty one, and
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: they found the dog two thousand miles away near Detroit, Michigan.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Is rescue spurred by a mon microchip. The dedicated California
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: charity group Helping Paul's and Claws was part of that
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: and data for the microchip showed up at Helping Paul's
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: and Claws and from there Chaco's identification was confirmed. His
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: rescue came. I guess at the point where they heard
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: the story. A community member California named Pam devoted her
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: frequent flyer miles for the return flight for Chaco. For
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: his return, he out of Michigan. So Chaco got on
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: the plane and then a short drive and then was
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: right back to his loving family. Chaco's owner, Patricia says
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: she was shocked to learn Chaco was returning home and
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: had some which she calls valuable advice for the pet owners.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: Microchip your dogs, she said, with holidays and extreme cold,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: a story like mine can be your story next, And
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: that's true. What a great story. I mean, you just
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: got a wit. Patricia would have to wish that she
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: just had some hint at what Choco got up to
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: for the past five years and how Choco got to Detroit.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: What a wild story.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Next, we'll go to this is Back in the nineties,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Becky and Lynn Minor purchased about one hundred acres of
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: forest in Washington State, and over the past two decades
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: they dedicated restoring the poorly managed forest into a thriving,
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: healthy tree farm, which they call Casa Becca del Norte
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: Becky's House of the North. All the hard work benefiting
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: others because Becky and Lynn recently donated Casa Beca del
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Norte to the Washington State University Extension Forestry Program, so
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: the land will serve as a living classroom, a place
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: where experts and students can study how forest grows, survived threats,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: back from damage. And they say that while they're saying
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: goodbye to this property, it's been bittersweet, Becky and Lynn
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: remained focused on the lasting impact that it will have.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: They say they hope the tree farm continues to be
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: a place of learning and research. Since our high school days,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: Becky and I have felt it is everyone's responsibility to
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: leave the earth better than they found it.
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: With this tree farm, then that's what we've done. That's right.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: Stewardship Man nicely don.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Creative way to make a donation without just kind of
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: the standard Hey let me take out my check book.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: I mean, obviously that's they did, but it was a
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: creative way to do that and then ultimately be of
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: great benefit to many.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: So well done.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: All right, a couple of strange and bizarre news stories.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: First and foremost, this is kind of Christmas related. LA
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: had a freeway where a pair of reindeer got out
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: of a trailer and decided to yeah, make a run
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: for it in the right lane. The four legged friends,
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Cookie and Noel slowed the already slow LA traffic until
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: local animal services could arrive and round them up. Cookie
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: and Noel were taken away to the West Valley Animal
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Center for a checkup, presumably a character or two before
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: maybe some magic cookies before they were safely returned to
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: their owner. They finally got home and of course getting ready.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: They might be.
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: I mean they may not be part of the A team,
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: but just know, especially with their escapeability, they could come
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: in handy as part of the B or C team.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: You know, you got the practice squad, the B squad.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: You know, maybe they need to step up. They maybe
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: they've earned a chance to move on up.
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: Finally, you know, you hear stories like this, You think
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: this kind of thing would never happen to me, And
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: this happened to a woman named Katrina. She was doing
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: some thrift shopping at a goodwill store and she noticed
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: that it was a little painted piggybank. It was pink,
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: caught her eye. She said, it's kind of hideous looking
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: and it's ten ninety nine and she thought, this seems
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: a little high for this thing. So she assumed there
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: must be some vintage quality to it, and she decided
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: that she would buy it. She shared this on social media.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: She left the store, she got in her car, she
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: realized something was inside the piggybank. She opened it up
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: and started pulling out plastic bags that were stuffed inside.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Once all the bags were out, she was shocked to
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: find that there were rolls of cash stuck inside, and
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: she counted it up and it was twenty twenty eight dollars.
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: She says that she's.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Found random things before at thrift stores, but nothing quite
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: like this. Again, one of those stories that you go,
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: it happens to people, it would never happen to me.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: Let's just leave it at that. But I mean, good
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: for her.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: I know there's some discussion about maybe she should have
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: tried to find the original owner and all these sorts
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: of things.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: I don't know about all that. I don't.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, this was taken to a thrift store, it
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: was purchased.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: I think at that point you move on. I mean,
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: this was just her lucky fine, right. I don't know.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: There may be some debate there, maybe you have a
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: different feelings on this, but that's where that's where my
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: head's at with it. So you know, I think she
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: just got a little Christmas bonus. Good for her for
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: her thrift shopping. Today's show brought to you by Columbus

• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Columbus for all of your garage door needs, commercial or residential.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's time for. It's
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: always good to get maintenance on anything that has parts
• 15:43

• 15:46
  Speaker 2: Company of Columbus can take care of squaring that away
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: for you, and while they're there, you can always ask
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: them questions about some of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: like to make to your garage door. Maybe your curb
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: appeal isn't quite what you want it to be and
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: you need some repair work done to the outside door.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: Maybe you need a brand new garage door completely. Maybe
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: it's making a noise when your garage door opens and closes.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's some sort of insulation issue that you've got
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: with colder or warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking at a situation where
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: you'd like to add a screen door to your garage
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: door system that you can put down and you can
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: use your garage space as a sort of outdoor but indoor,
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: you know, if you like to work on your own
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: cars in there, or maybe you just want a little
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: man cavid. You'd like to be able to open the
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: door up and not invite all the insects in They
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: can do that for you as well, and again they do.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: After hours calls.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, and they do
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh six, ory five eight forty
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: five hundred, seven oh six three five eight forty five
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: hundred O DC, Columbus More West Carol Morning.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Show right after the break. All Right.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: A Rochester, New York brewery has officially taken the top
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: spot in the country after its keg tree was voted
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: number one Christmas Tree in America, beating out the Rockfeller
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Center Tree in New York the National Christmas Tree in Washington.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: DC for the top spot.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: The Genesee Brewery built the massive twenty seven foot tall
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: structure using six hundred and fifty empty beer kegs and
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: wrapped it in more than twenty five thousand lights. Well done,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: and I'm sure just emptying those beer kegs was probably
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: a nice party for somebody. A truck driver in Indiana
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: got a surprise of a lifetime when he returned from
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: a break at a truck stop to find that his
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: trailer had been tampered with. After noticing the broken and seal,
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: he called the police. Officers investigated and discovered to discover
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: the ten boxes that were not part of his original load,
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: containing sixteen million dollars worth of cocaine, so much that
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: in fact, there wasn't enough space to start in the
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: evidence room. How about that story come back? Something's not right.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: You gotta figure they were going to be following him,
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: they had plans for retrieving that later. It's like something
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: straight out of Breaking Bad, isn't it, Although that would
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: have been you know, blue meth. All right, here's your
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: another great holiday story for you.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: This is.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Mopar releasing what they call the Ugly Sweater Trail armor
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: wraps for jeep wranglers and gladiators. The raps feature classic
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: holiday nit patterns wrapping around the hood insides and they
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: look like, you know, something ridiculous, But the sweaters are
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: actually made of heavy duty resin design to protect your
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: paint from branches and dust and other brush I guess
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: while you're out off roading. So yeah, I mean there's
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: a useful quality to it. It's just do you want
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: that on your round? Is that just something that you
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: take off I don't know how that works. Can you
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: just take those things off and put something else on.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: I don't know. If you think the chocolate calendars at
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: the grocery store starting to get pricey, wait till you
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: see what the more wealthy people are using to count
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: down Christmas. This year, the Spirit Company released a luxury
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: whiskey Advent calendar.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: I'm on board. Let's do this.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Price tag at about ten dollars, Okay, I'm out. For
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: that price you get a handmade oak and walnut cabinet
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: containing twenty four wax sealed DRAMs of some of the
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: rarest spirits on the planet. And if that's out of
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: your price range, that's okay. They offer one for only
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: eight hundred and seventy dollars, still out, and another for
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: about two hundred and seventy five bucks. That's closer, but
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: still out. Sorry, no, I get it, but I'm out.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: The CEO of Airbus says that the future flying might
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: look a lot more like a B two stealth bomber
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: than a traditional airplane. This blended wing design puts the
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: passenger cabin inside a massive, single thick wing, which could
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: cut fuel use by twenty percent and run entirely on hydrogen.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: The catch is that sitting in the middle of the
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: giant wing means no windows, no natural light, which designers
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: admit could leave some passengers feeling kind of claustrophobic. Basically,
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: a high tech living room in the sky, just no
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: window seats look cutting the cost down by twenty percent,
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: also running on hydrogen. This is you know, I could
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: I could stand to be in a giant living room
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: in the sky. Maybe have places that you can go
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: and look out the window if you need to do
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: that for some reason, maybe if it helps with claustrophobia.
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Finally, doctor's warning that, of course, this most wonderful time
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: of the year is also the peak season for something
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: called holiday heart syndrome. It's a sudden, irregular heartbeat that
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: strikes otherwise healthy people after they overdo it with salty food,
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: holiday stress, too many festive cocktails, probably too much chocolate, sweets,
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: all those things. Ers typically see a spike in cases
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: around Christmas and New Year's. While it often clears up
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: once you hydrate and rest, if you can increase it
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: can increase your risk for a stroke if it is ignored.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: The best way to keep things ticking. Stay out of
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: the er is simple moderation, getting enough sleep, managing stress,
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: regular exercise, and it sounds like hydrating would also come
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: in handy. That'll do it for this Tuesday edition of
• 21:57
