the safe way for you to lose weight

by priviging keeping your brain healthy. Here

4
00:00:12,439 --> 00:00:20,600
we are ready to relate to you. The will relate will This is if

5
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,039
we're going to relate, we must
be relatable. Right. That doesn't mean

6
00:00:24,039 --> 00:00:28,559
that we're relatives. It means that
we're going to connect you to some of

7
00:00:28,559 --> 00:00:31,519
the things that are going on.
Not everything, because we can't possibly talk

8
00:00:31,559 --> 00:00:35,359
about everything, but we'll talk about
a lot of things that are important here

9
00:00:35,359 --> 00:00:38,799
on the Good Day Program. Friday
has found us again. It's almost the

10
00:00:38,799 --> 00:00:45,240
middle of the month of July seven, fourteen dah twenty three, and our

11
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:51,079
goodness and graciousness brought to you by
Progressive Insurance, in part which provides insurance

12
00:00:51,119 --> 00:00:57,359
for motorcycles and boats and r v's
and so if you're really smart, the

13
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:02,039
protection that you get on the road
or you need on the water. That

14
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,480
sort of reminds me of that line, um from Jack Nicholson and a few

15
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:11,599
good men. You know that line
You can't yeah right exactly, you need

16
00:01:11,719 --> 00:01:15,760
us there we yeah that's what we
need. You need good insurance and so

17
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,200
you can save money at the same
time. But Dowling eight hundred progressive and

18
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:27,760
also visiting their website, which cleverly
is progressive dot com progressive with two s's

19
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,719
can you spell progressive with one s? Yeah? You can better be wrong?

20
00:01:33,879 --> 00:01:37,159
So why would you want to do
that? Got it all? Right,

21
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:41,359
Let's see what we have. That's
uh, it's cooking. This is

22
00:01:42,239 --> 00:01:49,439
this week has gone by freak?
Is it frequently freaking fast? Freakyrazily fast?

23
00:01:49,799 --> 00:01:53,599
Yeah, it could be that absurdly
fast. Bird feathers from ninety nine

24
00:01:53,760 --> 00:02:00,879
million years ago not only show that
modern birds are descended from the dinosaur era,

25
00:02:01,799 --> 00:02:07,200
but also they might point to why
some of their ancestors didn't make it.

26
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:14,599
The feathers that were found and preserved
show how molting was the key to

27
00:02:14,719 --> 00:02:20,000
some early extinctions of big birds.
This is where big bird comes in.

28
00:02:20,039 --> 00:02:23,000
That yellow big bird, right,
remember a big bird from Sesame Street,

29
00:02:23,159 --> 00:02:29,199
big bird bird who is a big
bird. Baby was a big bird anyway.

30
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,919
So this, uh, this,
there's a feather that's been found,

31
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:40,520
Um that is ninety nine million years
old. That's an old feather. And

32
00:02:40,599 --> 00:02:45,240
so some of these names I can't
pronounce. If I had my grandson here,

33
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,199
he can pronounce this. Maybe I'll
save this story for him when he's

34
00:02:47,199 --> 00:02:51,520
here in a couple of weeks.
It's not important what the name of the

35
00:02:52,039 --> 00:02:58,759
of the of the dinosaur species was. And this makes sense. Remember when

36
00:02:58,759 --> 00:03:01,680
that asteroid you don't remember, I
remember somebody off Jennifer here saying, Hey,

37
00:03:01,719 --> 00:03:06,039
Doug, what was it like when
the astronaid hit the No, what

38
00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:12,599
the asteroid did when it hit the
Gulf of Mexico sixty six million years ago

39
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,280
was kill everything that was on the
ground. However, if you were a

40
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:22,960
flying dinosaur, so the non Abean
dinosaurs all died, but the ones in

41
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:30,240
the air didn't. It would seem
so. Anyway, the temperatures were crazy

42
00:03:30,319 --> 00:03:37,120
when the dinosaur hit, up and
down, and so the birds who had

43
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:42,919
higher energy and were up above to
stay a little bit warmer, had the

44
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,599
resources to stay alive. So the
birds were around actually from a couple of

45
00:03:49,199 --> 00:03:53,280
hundred million years ago to that end
of all life sixty six million years ago.

46
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:59,479
Some survived. It's a whole long
story. But this I thought was

47
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:04,879
interesting because these feathers that had been
preserved for all these million years have given

48
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:10,199
us a clue as to how the
birds survived well. But also thinking that

49
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,680
the dinosaurs back in the day,
we're all more reptilian, where there really

50
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,879
were a lot that had feathers.
Yes, right, so that's the bird

51
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:21,480
story. Everybody's heard about the bird, bird, bird. There is a

52
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:28,600
question. All good broadcasters who are
doing talk usually start the hour. I

53
00:04:28,639 --> 00:04:32,680
say this often with a question about
something that is important. Here's a study

54
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,439
out this week. As the school
year is over, and then being contemplated,

55
00:04:36,439 --> 00:04:40,360
he realized that some youngsters will be
back in school in a month,

56
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:46,879
Right back in school in a month. Summer flew by, yes, well

57
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:53,879
flying as it were. So this
report that has come out from the National

58
00:04:53,959 --> 00:05:01,040
Education Association suggests that too many children
are chronically from school, don't go.

59
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:06,959
And so I wondered about the perspective
if you're a parent or a grandparent and

60
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:13,319
you have charge of your youngsters.
This is something that soda goes back to

61
00:05:13,399 --> 00:05:18,120
the pandemic. But yet it started
the trend. If you look at it,

62
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:25,800
it started. It started a long
time ago. And so as these

63
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,439
people running schools are looking at the
numbers, they're trying to figure out what

64
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:35,720
the most challenging way is to keep
youngsters interested in going on what's going on

65
00:05:35,759 --> 00:05:42,040
in school? I would say one
thing, stop telling them what to think.

66
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:47,800
How about we teach them how to
think. Absenteeism is up nationwide,

67
00:05:48,759 --> 00:05:54,720
but it has been really acute and
some of the biggest cities because the school

68
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:59,639
systems are awful. In Los Angeles, California, I probably should save this

69
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:06,160
form of her when she's around half. Half of the students missed big chunks

70
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:11,040
of the last school year and there's
no real used to be. We had

71
00:06:11,319 --> 00:06:14,680
truancy when I was teaching school and
when I was in school, and some

72
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,800
of you probably remember this. We
used to have truancy officers and the officer

73
00:06:19,079 --> 00:06:26,079
if you were absent from school more
than two days, the truancy officer would

74
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:30,079
check on you or check with your
parents to find out if you were sick

75
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,040
or what was really going on.
Well, I think that's the case.

76
00:06:32,079 --> 00:06:35,839
Some of these parents don't even know
their children aren't in school. They're depending

77
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:40,759
on the age of the child.
Yeah, some of these kids are kind

78
00:06:40,759 --> 00:06:46,439
of being held responsible to get ready
themselves and go Mac, what's going on?

79
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,560
Mac? What do you think of
the truancy issue Macy, Yeah,

80
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:56,279
mommy, mommy. But also a
lot of these kids are not being met

81
00:06:56,319 --> 00:07:00,279
with how they learn. There's with
the whole situation of no challenge being taught,

82
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,120
yeah, being taught what to think
rather than how to think. They're

83
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:09,480
not encouraged to ask questions. He's
against the whole time, is right exactly?

84
00:07:09,879 --> 00:07:12,759
All right? Do you need to
do something? We can take a

85
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:17,439
moment or two to do a few
things and then Mac might he might want

86
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,879
to become part of the protein gymer
in a microphone. I want to go

87
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:25,920
back to bed. Who knows?
All right? So that's the inside or

88
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:30,279
insight to what's going on and what
to do about it. There's a big

89
00:07:30,319 --> 00:07:34,120
debate actually about what to do.
I don't understand why there is a debate.

90
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,439
I don't think there should be a
debate. Children are supposed to go

91
00:07:38,519 --> 00:07:42,399
to school. That's it. That's
what their job is. So if your

92
00:07:42,519 --> 00:07:46,319
children are not going to school,
then it's on you. And if you're

93
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,160
not doing your job to make sure
that your child is in school, then

94
00:07:50,319 --> 00:07:55,600
what are we paying for? Why
am I paying? I resent, frankly,

95
00:07:55,639 --> 00:07:59,839
and I do I really resent because
I don't have children in public school

96
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:05,360
paying for children, for the system
to operate and not serve the people.

97
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,560
It's a it's a really big well. I think about people who never had

98
00:08:09,639 --> 00:08:13,319
children, who never even had children, and children to begin with, and

99
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,959
yes, they do have to pay
that is that is a little absurd.

100
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,959
This is a situation I should be
fixed. Yep, absolutely so some of

101
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,319
you thinking about as we get closer
to the beginning, Oh, you man,

102
00:08:24,399 --> 00:08:28,079
do you want to say that again? How close we are? The

103
00:08:28,079 --> 00:08:33,960
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has nothing to
do with the FDA, although a lot

104
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:37,720
of people look at that FD and
they say, oh the money. No

105
00:08:37,639 --> 00:08:41,440
FDA, the Food and Drug Administration. And you may or may not have

106
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:46,159
heard by this time. This is
something that was big all over the place

107
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:50,440
yesterday. The first birth control pill
you don't have to get a prescription to

108
00:08:50,639 --> 00:08:56,639
use, has been approved by the
federal government. I think this is actually

109
00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,919
a good thing. Can be sold
across the counter. As they say,

110
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,519
now, is there a chance,
Jay, this will be abused? What

111
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,200
else can you use this for?
Or what are the critics of this saying

112
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:16,679
that this is something that's unprecedented,
as certainly is political. Some people say

113
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,480
the YadA YadA YadA YadA. But
there are a lot of people, millions

114
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,480
of women who want access, and
because of the whole Roe v. Wade

115
00:09:24,519 --> 00:09:30,639
thing and what the Supreme Court decided
last year, this is one of the

116
00:09:30,639 --> 00:09:39,279
the big bug a booze oral contraceptives. And so is this do we think

117
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,960
this is an applause moment? Well? I mean, I think it's great,

118
00:09:43,039 --> 00:09:46,039
especially because birth control is not always
taken for birth control. It is

119
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,639
a lot. It helps a lot
of reproductive issues and women. Yeah,

120
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:56,519
but it can be abused as well
as any other currently available over the counter

121
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:03,360
medication that could be used large doses
to abort a vets and that is an

122
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,480
actuality, but that could be used
for other things that are currently available over

123
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:13,480
the counter. Right, this decision, the independent advisory panel that agreed that

124
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:18,960
this drug was safe for most people. So I guess the question is going

125
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,879
to be second question. You know, are you're choling to going to school?

126
00:10:22,919 --> 00:10:26,879
The second question is is this drug
is safe for everybody? And apparently

127
00:10:26,879 --> 00:10:31,039
it's not. Is this going to
be another one? I'd see we're so

128
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,519
loaded up. I have no problem
with this being available, frankly, and

129
00:10:35,879 --> 00:10:39,879
I shouldn't shouldn't make a difference to
me one way or another because I'm not

130
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:45,759
in this league. But the whole
business about making birth, if you want

131
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,600
this is up to you, not
up to somebody else to decide for you

132
00:10:50,159 --> 00:10:54,200
what you do. Hopefully, if
you have someone that you're close to,

133
00:10:54,759 --> 00:10:58,480
that's a part of your decision making
process because it does take two to get

134
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:03,799
pregnant. And you know, the
idea here is to have people agree on

135
00:11:03,879 --> 00:11:09,320
what's going on. Sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't. But the whole

136
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:18,360
business of advice and consent, I
guess under the circumstances the seventy seven percent

137
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:22,120
of women who are under fifty that
say they want birth control pills. This

138
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:28,399
is how the Republicans lose, right, if you don't have women under fifty

139
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:35,240
voting for your candidate, whoever it
is, then and women under fifty pretty

140
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,639
much across the board. There is
some political there's some people who just don't

141
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,480
want to have this, but most
people I know who are of wildly different

142
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:48,320
political persuasions want this. Women under
fifty. So there you go, now

143
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:56,720
you haven't. This is our social
media segment. The not everything that's going

144
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:01,960
on in social media can be translated
and used in a four and a half

145
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,799
minutes hopening. But we'll try to
do to touch on a couple of things

146
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:13,639
here that are important that are more
general. For example, the thumbs up

147
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:20,960
emoji that is considered something that you
use. You know, when you're sending

148
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,960
back and forth, people like to
use emojis, right, Do you sometimes

149
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,159
sign off your email with an emoji? Sometimes my only response is an emoji?

150
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:35,559
Yeah? Okay. So here's um
a judgment that means that suggests that

151
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:45,080
legally binding contracts would be something that
thumbs up would indicate. So this judge

152
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:54,799
says the thumbs up emoji is this
is very interesting case involves a farmer and

153
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:01,600
a deal to sell eighty seven tons
of flax grain to a buyer. Maybe

154
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,000
it's not important the background, although
I think it's kind of interesting from my

155
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,200
point of view that it was a
farmer who triggered all of this stuff,

156
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:16,960
and so the nuance of it is
kind of confusing and a little more complicated

157
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:22,000
than we need to get into.
The bottom line is that the farmer was

158
00:13:22,039 --> 00:13:28,919
asked to sell, and the farmer
clicked the thumbs up response, and so

159
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,799
the guy who's at the other end
thinks, okay, that's an agreement.

160
00:13:31,879 --> 00:13:39,279
So here, let's go, please
confirm flax contract text and the emoji thumbs

161
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,559
up was the response. So we'd
just hard to say Jay, And I

162
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,639
was going to say, I think
it was the buyer that did the thumbs

163
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:48,440
up emoji, so when the farmers
can't deliver, the judge or said that

164
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,519
the thumbs up was kind of contractual, but that was the buyer that sent

165
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:58,159
it, and the Eiger way,
yeah, but either way is it should

166
00:13:58,159 --> 00:14:03,679
it be under the circumstances. Think
about it a moment. Is that all

167
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:09,039
it takes? Are we to that
point that we're so lazy that we can't

168
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,639
say yes or no or indicate it
or it's not gonna like an actual handshake.

169
00:14:11,639 --> 00:14:16,720
I can understand the handshake emoji because
a handshake sometimes signifies a done deal,

170
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,519
But the thumbs up sometimes it's just
like acknowledging, like okay, good

171
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:24,399
deal, or like yes or not
even a guess, just like received,

172
00:14:24,679 --> 00:14:26,279
you know what I mean, like
okay, I've got your text. The

173
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,480
judge says this court cannot, nor
should it attempt, to stem the tide

174
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:37,399
of technology and common usage. This
appears to be the new reality, and

175
00:14:37,519 --> 00:14:41,080
society and courts will have to be
ready to meet the new challenges that may

176
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,360
arise from the use of emoji.
And they're like, wow, do I

177
00:14:43,399 --> 00:14:50,600
disagree with that? But I'm not
a judge, And there the judge came

178
00:14:50,679 --> 00:14:54,759
saw and conquered, and so that's
the end of that. Or it'll go

179
00:14:54,799 --> 00:14:56,960
to a higher court. Let's see
what happens there. Maybe, So,

180
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:03,080
Jay, I guess I'm asking this
because it is sort of a universal question.

181
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,000
We've been talking a lot in the
last few weeks about people throwing things

182
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:09,399
onto the stage when people are performing. You know, somebody get hit in

183
00:15:09,399 --> 00:15:13,440
the head with a phone. People
and throwing bras up whatever it is,

184
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:18,039
bracelets and people in the eye.
It's just dangerous. Yeah. So the

185
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:22,919
question here is is it a new
thing or has it been around forever since

186
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:28,720
the time of Shakespearean plays? And
the answer is apparently, yeah, it's

187
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:33,240
been something. If you go back
to Shakespeare's time, performances were watched by

188
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:37,440
people, and through folks would throw
things on stage. It was there were

189
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:43,840
more so throwing it on stage rather
than at people. Well maybe that's true,

190
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,519
but it's still something has changed.
Head. I used to think when

191
00:15:46,519 --> 00:15:50,639
you go to a performance, you
politely sit there and clap when you like

192
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,440
stuff, or even you cheer when
you like stuff, but you don't throw

193
00:15:54,559 --> 00:16:00,679
things onto the stage. And some
people are get on the pandemic because people

194
00:16:00,679 --> 00:16:07,799
are so restless. Noah, Yeah, that's just rude. So that's my

195
00:16:07,879 --> 00:16:11,240
redound anyway, And I am Robert
Strickler. My wife Joyce and I have

196
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:17,159
been married for fifty three years.
Certainly one of the really important things in

197
00:16:17,159 --> 00:16:22,480
my life are our children and our
grandchildren. I am essentially a writer.

198
00:16:22,759 --> 00:16:27,000
I've been involved in communications in the
media. I've been an avid fly fisherman

199
00:16:27,159 --> 00:16:33,000
for at least forty or more years. I've been taking Privigen on a regular

200
00:16:33,039 --> 00:16:37,720
basis for at least eight years.
For me, the greatest benefit over the

201
00:16:37,799 --> 00:16:42,159
years has been that Privigen seems to
help me recall things and also think more

202
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:48,159
clearly, have a crisper ability to
remember and think through things. And I

203
00:16:48,399 --> 00:16:55,600
enthusiastically recommend Privigen. It has helped
me an awful lot. Provigen healthier brain,

204
00:16:55,919 --> 00:16:59,919
better life. Robert Strickler is a

thoughts. All right, So the
good news today, or among the good

209
00:17:18,519 --> 00:17:22,440
news stories, the story of a
six year old being praised for his heroics

210
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:29,279
after he jumped into a pool to
save his two year old brother. How

211
00:17:29,319 --> 00:17:33,960
about that, huh? His kid
was swimming during a gathering at his grandparents

212
00:17:33,039 --> 00:17:40,279
house. His younger brother fell into
the water. At first, the youngster

213
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:45,759
felt his name youngster was called Atticus
Whitlock wasn't sure what was going on,

214
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:51,079
but he scoped out the situation.
Jay. He was horrified when he realized

215
00:17:51,079 --> 00:17:52,759
it was his brother who was in
danger. He said, quote, I

216
00:17:52,799 --> 00:17:56,920
saw something on top of the water. I had my goggles on. I

217
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,880
didn't know what it was, so
I went under to see what it was,

218
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:06,039
and it was his younger brother.
Isn't that terrifying? The boy's mother

219
00:18:06,079 --> 00:18:11,160
said she was near the pool when
this happened, but had no idea that

220
00:18:11,279 --> 00:18:15,559
it was her two year old and
her six year old. They were in

221
00:18:15,599 --> 00:18:18,519
the water, and so Attic has
jumps in grabs his brother at the bottom

222
00:18:18,519 --> 00:18:23,920
of the pool, pulls him up, and then the mother jumps in and

223
00:18:25,599 --> 00:18:29,039
helps them both get out. But
I can just see her. What's so

224
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:33,240
terrifying is things like this happen when
there are either nobody around. The child

225
00:18:33,319 --> 00:18:37,759
got out on their own, or
there's a lot of people around. Yeah,

226
00:18:37,799 --> 00:18:40,839
and people are distracted, but everybody
else thinks that somebody's keeping an eye

227
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:45,559
on the child. Yes, and
there we are. That's it the bottom

228
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,279
the bottom line. Here's the bad
news, some of the bad and it

229
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:53,680
seems more bad news around. There's
only more bad news if you're looking for

230
00:18:53,799 --> 00:18:59,279
bad news. But here, puts
yourself at this place, this woman's place.

231
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,960
Ladies, starting the day, nice
thing going on. She's out running

232
00:19:04,079 --> 00:19:11,720
errands with her fiance. The two
of them hop on their motorcycle and they

233
00:19:11,279 --> 00:19:15,160
as they going out to they I
think they were going out to dinner as

234
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:22,000
a matter of fact. And this
lady got an alert on her phone that

235
00:19:22,079 --> 00:19:26,160
a smoke alarm was going off in
her home, so she called her son,

236
00:19:26,599 --> 00:19:30,839
who lived closer to the house in
Mitchellville, Iowa. He said smoke

237
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:36,599
was pouring out of the house.
So he was running so hard because he

238
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:41,839
knew that there were all these animals
in the house, and she could think

239
00:19:41,839 --> 00:19:45,400
about were the animals there. I
guess there's some dogs in the house and

240
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,440
some other animals that were a couple
exotics, right, yeah, right,

241
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:56,000
So she raced back home and went
full throttled, but if she headed for

242
00:19:56,119 --> 00:20:00,039
the off ramp, she lost on
the control of the v vehicle and crashed.

243
00:20:02,039 --> 00:20:07,680
All right, So already she's got
a motorcycle wreck, she's got a

244
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,680
houses on fire, but it's not
over there. So she lands on her

245
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:18,200
shoulder, breaks her clavicle, big
gash in her knee, and so she

246
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:25,640
wasn't and she wasn't wearing any protective
gear, which she identifies herself as foolish

247
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:30,039
after the fact, right exactly.
So the house is on fire, she's

248
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:36,039
hurt, and so the people who
you know, she's gone to her house

249
00:20:36,079 --> 00:20:38,200
see what's going on. And people
see that she's hurt, so they send

250
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,440
her, come on, let's go. You need to go to the doctor.

251
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,480
You need to go to the hospital. And so she goes to the

252
00:20:44,559 --> 00:20:48,799
hospital to treat her various bumps and
bruises and breaks. Doctors are on a

253
00:20:48,839 --> 00:20:52,920
CT scan to make sure that she
didn't have any internal bleeding, and they

254
00:20:52,000 --> 00:21:00,759
find a huge cancerous mass on her
kidney. She's got renal cell carcinoma,

255
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:07,519
which is a very sneaky one that's
typically not diagnosed until later stages and is

256
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:12,519
potentially terminal when not caught in the
early stages. So put yourself in her

257
00:21:12,519 --> 00:21:18,240
position, right, fire burns your
house to the ground, wrecks your motorcycle

258
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:23,119
first and hurt yep, hurts yourself. Goes to the hospital learning she has

259
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,480
cancer. All of this in the
same day, good god, span of

260
00:21:26,559 --> 00:21:30,000
twenty four hours. Well, and
here's the thing too, So the good

261
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,160
news and the miracle in this is
she would not have known she had this

262
00:21:33,279 --> 00:21:37,720
cancer until a later stage when symptoms
arose, and it would have been too

263
00:21:37,759 --> 00:21:41,880
late. She found out about this
cancer because she was speeding on her motorcycle

264
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,759
because her house was on fire.
She crashed her bike. They did these

265
00:21:44,799 --> 00:21:48,640
scans, they found it, and
she was going to survive this cancer because

266
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:55,359
it was in the early stages.
So from that comes good. There's if

267
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:56,799
there's going to be a silver lining, it has to be a cloudy day.

268
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:02,599
Yeah, yep, that's right.
That's a great way of remembering.

269
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,839
Yeah, yes, yeah, that's
Casey musgrapes for that one. Yep,

270
00:22:07,079 --> 00:22:11,160
there you go. So the FDA, we were talking earlier with the FDA

271
00:22:11,319 --> 00:22:17,960
proving this over the counter birth control
pill. Now from the same organization,

272
00:22:18,079 --> 00:22:26,400
the Food and Drug Administration, the
fact that aspertame maybe a possible cause of

273
00:22:26,519 --> 00:22:30,880
cancer in humans. Did you see
this? I wonder what your reaction.

274
00:22:30,039 --> 00:22:34,599
I wonder what anybody's reaction to it
is when you get down to the bottom

275
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,960
line, I thought we already knew
this though we did too, Yes,

276
00:22:38,079 --> 00:22:42,759
and and aspertame, even the fact
that it's a potential carcinogen, but also

277
00:22:42,839 --> 00:22:48,519
it's just it's so horrific for people, especially anybody who deals with inflammation issues

278
00:22:48,599 --> 00:22:52,680
or has a chronic illness. It
causes added issues into the body, like

279
00:22:52,279 --> 00:22:56,759
aspartame. And it's in all Aspertam
is in anything that is diet or zero

280
00:22:56,839 --> 00:23:02,359
sugar labeled or anything like that.
Well, no it's not. It's yeah,

281
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,519
it's in the Coca Cola zero sugar, the caffeine free, the diet

282
00:23:04,519 --> 00:23:08,440
coke. It's not in regular coke. And a lot of the regular pops

283
00:23:08,519 --> 00:23:11,599
get a bad name because it's like, well there's so much sugar. Take

284
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:15,559
the real sugar. Take all of
that stuff. Take the ingredients that are

285
00:23:15,559 --> 00:23:18,119
in the real, the regular,
rather than the diets or the zero sugars

286
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:22,519
or sugar freeze. The aspar team
is the worst. Yep, it's very

287
00:23:22,559 --> 00:23:26,079
bad for you. Look at the
labels on things, whether it's stuff you're

288
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:32,000
drinking, things you're eating. Yes, sugar is not great for you.

289
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:37,279
But aspar team and some of the
other things that have been used over the

290
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,279
years, the last twenty thirty years, when people said, oh, no,

291
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:44,920
what sugar, Let's have something that's
safe. I won't gain weight if

292
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,319
I have this stuff. No,
you'll die. So I find it different

293
00:23:48,319 --> 00:23:55,279
alternative. Not much chance, not
a chance of you having a reaction if

294
00:23:55,279 --> 00:23:59,759
you're dead, right, Okay,
So there's that now. Speaking of being

295
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:07,960
in the case of Lisa Murray Pressley
this I was surprised to see she had

296
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:15,759
a small bowel obstruction and that's what
killed her, which seems rather it would

297
00:24:15,759 --> 00:24:19,680
have been easy to find and I
wouldn't have thought. I mean, I

298
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:25,000
don't I've never had a small ball. I don't know, you know,

299
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:30,880
knock on? Would everything worked fine? Thanks very much? But one wonders

300
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:36,480
with all of the medical attention she
would be exposed to you have the resources,

301
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,480
there are the people. I just
I find this. I find it

302
00:24:41,599 --> 00:24:48,839
distressing frankly and so kind of not
necessary. Are you with me on this

303
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,039
search? Yeah, that's one of
those things where exactly what are the symptoms?

304
00:24:52,079 --> 00:24:56,519
Because there are so many different things
that they share the same symptoms.

305
00:24:56,559 --> 00:25:00,400
And I think we as a society
prior to the COVID pan dymach, but

306
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,039
more so after, we brush things
off like oh, it's probably just this,

307
00:25:04,279 --> 00:25:07,920
or it's probably just that, until
it gets significantly worse. And for

308
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:12,640
anybody who's by themselves, sometimes when
it gets worse, then it's too late

309
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:17,000
for you to even help yourself or
to reach out to get help. Right.

310
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:18,559
Have they figured out? By the
way, there was a big to

311
00:25:18,599 --> 00:25:23,359
do after she died, a kind
of a fight between her daughter Riley and

312
00:25:23,519 --> 00:25:29,079
her grand and her mother Priscilla,
Yeah to Graceland. Yeah, is that

313
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:34,000
settled? I think they did settle
it, and I think that Riley still

314
00:25:34,039 --> 00:25:38,640
I think Riley Kios still got everything
that she was supposed to receive in it.

315
00:25:38,759 --> 00:25:45,279
But I'm not sure if she's allowing
Priscilla to do anything. I would

316
00:25:45,279 --> 00:25:49,759
think so because Priscilla is Graceland.
Priscilla is I mean, she is Graceland

317
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:56,119
and Riley doesn't know much about anything. From what I can figure out from

318
00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:03,440
quote unquote sources that they still have
a good relationship, and it was that

319
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,640
was one point in this whole fight, was to make sure that it didn't

320
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:11,160
hinder their relationship, right exactly.
And so it's solid about Elvis Presley Enterprises

321
00:26:11,839 --> 00:26:15,519
and the things that go on.
Priscilla has been responsible for the way this

322
00:26:15,559 --> 00:26:25,079
has grown, the way the all
of this, this whole business of who's

323
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:29,519
in charge and how do they continue
to live well off of Elvis, That's

324
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:33,839
kind of what this is all about, right, So Priscilla is only I'm

325
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,880
looking at the terms of the settlement
here, looks like Priscilla got a million

326
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,079
bucks and four hundred thousand dollars in
legal fees. Yeah. I think they

327
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:45,839
had to pay Priscilla to end the
family trust dispute situation. Why would you?

328
00:26:47,839 --> 00:26:51,000
I don't get this. But Priscilla
is the one that I mean,

329
00:26:51,039 --> 00:26:55,400
she was already divorced from Elvis,
but they maintained a solid friendship and mutual

330
00:26:55,400 --> 00:27:00,640
respect, and she rarely turned grace
Land. Graceland was not Graceland while all

331
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,680
of us was still alive. Priscilla
did that, Yep, she did.

332
00:27:04,759 --> 00:27:08,400
She knew how to. She's a
good business lady, good business sense.

333
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:14,240
I don't know there's something smelly here, frankly, because again it hasn't been

334
00:27:14,319 --> 00:27:23,519
said. Leadood been Okay, here's
something good for Donald Trump fans. Pause.

335
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:30,960
A judge has ruled it groping is
only a crime if it lasts more

336
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:36,279
than ten seconds. The story,
Okay, somebody groped this judge for nine

337
00:27:36,319 --> 00:27:40,559
seconds, and let's see what happens
after. This is a story. It

338
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,000
went to court. Sixty six year
old groped a seventeen year old student,

339
00:27:44,839 --> 00:27:49,039
and it went to court. Judge
ruled that it wasn't a crime because oh

340
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,920
so pedophilia is okay as long as
it lasts for lessons less than ten seconds,

341
00:27:53,079 --> 00:27:57,240
right, what a disgusting human being? Yeah, and how does the

342
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:02,799
seventeen year old feel about this?
You know? The I would think,

343
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:07,680
and I'm seeing evidence that this young
lady is angry and he was betrayed by

344
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:14,119
the system. Yeah, yes,
I would think, yeah, yeah,

345
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:18,680
groping is not okay, thank you
very much. Wow, So it's great

346
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,599
business time for Caldron. I would
think the phones would be ringing off the

347
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:26,000
hook and people will be ordering nauseum. That's right. You know, it'll

348

00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,480
Doug said, it's so much more
than just a white lost product. I

352
00:28:41,519 --> 00:28:45,880
mean, we're not talking about a
quick, fake bade product. There are

353
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:51,400
no drugs, there are no stimulants. Our number one agree as collagen protein.

354
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:55,039
It's got types one and three.
That's for the muscle and the joints,

Elizabeth Miller here, one of the

359
00:29:12,759 --> 00:29:19,319
great Calatron consultants at top laws dot
com. Now the electric you understand why

360
00:29:19,319 --> 00:29:26,279
I said that, Nick and Amer
the electrifying Nick Miles from our autoexpert dot

361
00:29:26,319 --> 00:29:30,519
com. So I'm looking at and
you there are a couple of different ways

362
00:29:30,559 --> 00:29:37,759
of looking at this, the electric
vehicle business and prices for us dvs basically

363
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:42,759
or collapsing. So I had James
Collins, who's on my staff at the

364
00:29:42,799 --> 00:29:49,559
main studio in Dallas, go find
a Kelly Bluebook evaluation of a Tesla from

365
00:29:49,599 --> 00:29:55,559
the first year two thousand and eight. And at first I couldn't find any

366
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:59,519
reference to it. And then he
found one that sold for eighty thousand dollars.

367
00:30:00,079 --> 00:30:03,759
And it has nothing to do with
the everyday run of the mill car.

368
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,839
I don't think there are too many
of them that are left anyway because

369
00:30:06,839 --> 00:30:10,519
of the battery thing, right,
well, yeah, well yeah, the

370
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:17,839
early batteries I wouldn't have anything to
do with because, well, what happens

371
00:30:17,839 --> 00:30:21,319
to the cars though, those early
cars If the batteries are no good and

372
00:30:21,359 --> 00:30:25,759
they can't find a replacement, what
do you do with a car the junkyard,

373
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:30,119
Yes exactly, it becomes it becomes
something of a flower pot. Let's

374
00:30:30,119 --> 00:30:37,079
say you put it in the garden. There you go. I'm going to

375
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,960
plant some corn in my electric vehicle, thank you very much. All right,

376
00:30:41,079 --> 00:30:45,400
So there are more and more of
these things being sold all the time,

377
00:30:45,839 --> 00:30:52,319
and but you you point out in
an article that you wrote how complicated

378
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:57,680
it is. It really is a
people waking up to the reality of what

379
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:02,920
they're really doing or not doing when
they buy an electric car. Doug.

380
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:07,319
It's it's this horrible sort of whirlpool
of things that we're getting into where car

381
00:31:07,359 --> 00:31:14,839
companies are losing money on electric cars. They're they're actually breaking even at best.

382
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:19,599
Tesla is the only company that's making
money on these cars, and yet

383
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,640
we're selling more and more of them, and when people go to look at

384
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:26,799
them at the store, they're going, well, again, the fifty one

385
00:31:26,839 --> 00:31:29,720
percent of Americans are saying, yeah, we'll go, we'll go look at

386
00:31:29,759 --> 00:31:33,319
them, but they're only only eight
percent of people are buying them because they're

387
00:31:33,319 --> 00:31:36,559
saying, well, wait a second, the chargers don't really work for us.

388
00:31:36,319 --> 00:31:40,400
There's not enough chargers, and those
things are getting better by the way,

389
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:45,920
but they just don't really work for
most Americans. And gas still works.

390
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:49,200
But the adoption is happening too fast. We know that electric is coming,

391
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:55,440
but we're being pushed too fast to
adopt them. And this is a

392
00:31:55,880 --> 00:32:00,160
fast pretenses too. Yeah yeah,
and it's like, yes, we know

393
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:04,480
it's coming, Yes we know the
technology is here, but don't push too

394
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,079
hard. Let's let this thing happen
naturally, and when we're ready and good

395
00:32:08,119 --> 00:32:13,200
and ready. And yes they're exciting
to drive, but it's like forcing us

396
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,160
to do something before we're good and
ready and before the technology is there.

397
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:21,240
And we don't want flower pots in
our yard for things that just get filled

398
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:25,400
with dirt because it's a waste of
money. And yes it works for some

399
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:30,640
people, but it doesn't work for
everybody. And I think the most interesting

400
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:36,079
fact is a tiny one that's buried
way below everything here, which is at

401
00:32:36,119 --> 00:32:42,319
the beginning of the year, there
was a seven point three percent of people

402
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:46,240
had adopted electric cars. That is
now down to seven point two percent,

403
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:52,000
which tells me that people bought electric
cars and got rid of them at the

404
00:32:52,039 --> 00:32:55,440
beginning of this year because they didn't
work for them. And that is a

405
00:32:55,799 --> 00:33:01,480
reversal of Americans buying electric cars.
Is super interesting, which means that people

406
00:33:01,519 --> 00:33:06,599
are getting caught up in the hype
and going this isn't working. I need

407
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,000
to get rid of my electric car. Well, but what do they do

408
00:33:09,079 --> 00:33:14,599
with them? What does the dealer
do with them? That's the question.

409
00:33:14,599 --> 00:33:17,440
Are you you don't put an ad
into you know it used to be who

410
00:33:17,519 --> 00:33:21,920
sold our cars online? Right or
not online? And put an ad in

411
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,160
the newspaper I am for sale in
nineteen sixty eight. Dodge charger. Yeah,

412
00:33:25,279 --> 00:33:30,960
you don't see those anymore. Well, just go look at the inventory

413
00:33:30,079 --> 00:33:34,160
here. You know, we used
to have fifty three days supply of electric

414
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,000
cars. Now are over one hundred
days supply. So they're sitting on lots.

415
00:33:37,119 --> 00:33:42,200
That's exactly what's happening. You know, they're the board lightning there eighty

416
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:46,640
eight days supply, they're the Mustang
one hundred and sixteen days supply, the

417
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:51,960
best. You know BMW's I four
as forty day supply and that that's one

418
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,319
of the hottest selling cars out there. So you know, there are a

419
00:33:54,359 --> 00:34:00,279
lot of evs sitting out there,
and yes they're exciting to drive, but

420
00:34:00,359 --> 00:34:07,039
we are not for everybody. So
I met a gentleman who had got caught

421
00:34:07,119 --> 00:34:12,000
up in the EV saga, and
he now is he has a long community

422
00:34:12,039 --> 00:34:15,159
as one hundred and twenty five mile
commute every day, and now he has

423
00:34:15,159 --> 00:34:21,440
a extra forty five miles every day
to find charging stations along his driving.

424
00:34:21,639 --> 00:34:25,360
Ridiculous because because got caught up in
the EV boom when he shouldn't have been

425
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:29,599
buying an EV. So let's say, eat off of sum. But they're

426
00:34:29,639 --> 00:34:34,840
not for everybody where do the wise? Okay, Nick Miles here are Autoexpert
