we got our our clocks all set up now in the day and the time,
no matter where you are, we actually do have some listeners in Italy
hear from people around the world. It's pretty easy to connect, as you
know these days, these modern days, this modern era of connection and communication
on social media. People have found us at gooddayshow dot com, or they
have communicated with us on our social media at good Day Networks, and you
can do the same no matter where you are. It's nice to hear a
lot of people who come out of the woodwork Jay on the birthday. And
so there are people that I've heard from actually some of the people I was
noticing some have actually connected with for years and years and years with the Happy
Birthday stuff. So it's nice to have all those people who are connected here
there and everywhere radio stations and listening online and listening to the podcast and the
download. So Happy Birthday to all of you. Thank you yay. It's
the Good Day Program, Doug and Jaye. November the eighth, Wednesday is
upon us. It's a new era for a lot of people. My local
election here saw a couple of upsets that were not predicted, and I wonder
if that isn't a good thing. I'm not sure that I like. Well,
it is what it is, what the election has done portended for us
here locally. There are a lot of politicians who are happy today, a
lot of politicians who are sad today. A lot of politicians are angry today.
Supporters are angry, supporters are happy. That's just the way it works.
So if I were to ask you jay about the takeaway regarding abortion in
Ohio, it seems that the trend continues to protect abortion. If you look
at the results of other elections in other states and to see what happened in
Ohio, you want to give us a thumbnail sketch of what happened and maybe
what other issues they were in the lives law as you're there, Ohio is
enshrining the right to reproductive care, including access to abortion, in the state
constitution. And another thing that passed is the legalization of recreational marijuana. A
ha, how big was the margin when it came to the vote on marijuana.
I'm curious to see how things are, what the thought, what the
feeling is the voter. I didn't see what the most recent but the last
time I had shocked it was like fifty fifty two percent. I believe it
was fight. Yeah, most of those the questions on marijuana pretty much are
consistent around the country. Where it's passed, it's usually fifty two, fifty
three, fifty four or fifty five. Well, the first time it's been
on the ballot, but it is the first has passed. Okay, So
what do you think has changed and are you surprised? In a lot of
depending on where you live in the state of Ohio, some people happy about
this because this is sort of a regional thing cities versus towns, and country
versus urban in terms of what the attitude is to have the Again, the
support for abortion rights, well, I feel like if we're going to stereotype
people, it is the cliche that usually people on the right will vote against
abortion rights, people on the left will vote for abortion rights. That's really
not true. Of course, you have people on the left that do do
vote against abortion rights. People on the right that do vote against it a
or for it. I mean I I view Ohio as a more conservative state.
It is. It's definitely always one of the swing states, but it
is significantly more conservative. There were when you look at signs in the in
people's yards or on roadways, there were a significantly higher number of no signs
vote no for issue one than there were vote yes for issue one. So
I was a little surprised that it won. And I was surprised that recreational
marijuana one, especially because it feels like Ohio only when did Ohio get medical
It feels like really, like really recently. So what would you say is
the demographic if we looked around the state, But I found when I worked
there, I went to school there and spent time in northwest Ohio at Tiffin
where I went to Heidelberg, and then in the southwest part of the state
in Cincinnati, which is close to Kentucky. When I was on the air
at CKW there and at CKY. It just it is a sort of an
I don't know if unpredictable was the right Well, it's a mix, I
guess that. And you've sort of said that so hard to predict. I
wonder how many younger voters turned out versus middle aged or older is in off
year elections, and that's what they call these. It's usually older voters who
turn out. And if that's the case and both marijuana and legalization of abortion
rights took place, that may so so the seeds of a drift, if
you will. And how older. Again, mostly older people vote, or
people from your age up, and not a lot of younger voters turn out
for these elections. Too bad, because they ought to, because they influence
a lot of policy and a lot of things that need to be influenced.
But anyway, the the what was described by the by one handle. I
saw Beatrid Kentucky, the fellow who is the governor of Edward, beat Red
Kentucky held onto his office by the hair on his chiny chin chin. But
he was he turned he campaigned on reproductive rights. And so anyway, there
is a Democrat that won in Pennsylvania on the Supreme Court. Cousin, No,
it's not cousins. Heated cousins. No cousins, right, So that's
a surprise that did surprise me. Frankly, I figured because people often more
often than not, in fact, will support a name because they don't really
know what the issues are, they don't pay attention to it. Joe Biden
and Donald Trump were not on the ballot, obviously, so how much of
a fact were either of them in the results of the election is a question
that a lot of partisans will ask, and a lot of the right wing
radio hosts will ask that today, and they'll find a way. Look at
Donald Trump, he got this guy elected? Or yeah. I think the
headlines will always be whether or not they were a Donald Trump supporter or right,
yeah, And it's more about Trump in that regard than Joe Biden.
Joe Biden didn't have co tails for anybody, and yet more Democrats one,
so that, I don't know, it kind of tells you something. I
think. The big story though, seems as I look around, I'm looking
at four different stories at the same time, and they all seem to lead
with Ohio and what happened there, and then the you know, the pundits
are gonna say, oh, this is a transformational election, don't they always
say that, Yes, it's big doings for whomever. They're always transformational or
they're always precedented, right, Yeah, exactly. So the one thing to
go back to Ohio and the abortion thing for a second, of I may
there this business of who was appointed to the Supreme Court and how each time
this has come up for a vote in any state, whether it would be
a blue state or a red state. Abortion rights, which is kind of
a lousy way of putting it, sanctity of life. I don't know what
you wanted. Whatever you wanted, everybody knows what we're talking about. He
has won reproductive rights, thank you. Yeah, that's the best way of
referring to it. It wins at the ballot box. And so does that
mean that you know there'll be people who will pull this apart today? The
Supreme Court was wrong. The Supreme Court really didn't overturn Roe v. Wade.
As much as some people will say that's what happened. It did suggest
that the state's individual they ought to make the decision. So as each state
votes, that tells you, I think where the heads are of the people
in the country. That's the way I look at this. I think that
I don't know. The Supreme Court probably did what they should have done with
that particular issue, but it wasn't really about abortion. Rights. It was
really about what the states are supposed to be doing or not, versus whether
this should be federalized. And that's the way I've always interpreted. I didn't
see it as a I didn't like it because I think Roe v. Wade
should stand. But I think that what they did was probably legally the right
thing to do. As a matter of fact. As much as this sounds
kind of contradictory, I think it's one of the few times since this bunch
that Trump appointed had been put in and the thing was tilted in the direction
was tilted, that they made a good decision or a right decision based on
the law from what I know talking to, listening to and reading constitutional lawyers
overview of what actually happened. And it's a perfect example of people who don't
really get the reality of the law or the reality of what Supreme Court really
does. That's just the way I look so but it looks like it was
a good knight for the Democrats, and they should smile, because I don't
think it's going to be a good night for Democrats next year at all.
I think Biden's going to lose. And honestly, I'm always honest and I
reject the fact that can I tell you the truth? Can I be honest
with you? Yeah? Okay, Yeah, I think And yesterday made me
think it even more that Robert F. Kennedy Junior is really a factor in
all of this. He's a big factor. It's a year away from the
presidential election. And unless this guy turns out to be a bumbling fool,
and I don't think he is, or turns out to make a big mistake,
and I don't think he will. I think this guy's got a shot
because Biden is so unpopular even among his own party, and they can't seem
to get there together because of Susan Rice and that bunch that are still trying
to control things and not looking at the tea leaves, and the same with
the Trumpers. I think the next year is going to be disastrous for Trump
with all this legal stuff. I don't wish it, but I think that
that's the way to look at it. And more and more people are saying,
you know, what is it with these two guys? What do we
need them for? Who's this guy over here? Al? His name is
Kennedy? Parties? Yeah, wait a minute, third party. Let's go
last time that a third party candidate had somewhat decent was that Nader, Ralph
Nader. Ralph Nader was one and probably may have been a ross Perot was
another one that's had shaped the election of George Bush. Show yep interesting to
see and watch sets. It's interesting how the word spreads quickly. It was
about a week ago that the public became aware that Barbara Streisand has a new
book out more or less the story of her life, her memoir, and
it literally, I want to say everybody, but there's a big buzz on
this book for a lot of different reasons, including what Barbara Streisand said to
JFK when they met in nineteen sixty three, and then there's a whole lot
of other stuff that there is a tease attached to her memoirs called my name
is Barbara, and she has lots of explanations, lots of events, lots
of things that would be sort of colorful. And when you read the book,
there's nothing blase about it. Let's put it that way, and I'll
talk more about her with you, right, nothing blase about and there's never
been anything blase about her. So what's the scoop? There's something about her
that's always been kind of cute. She's made, She's fabulously wealthy because of
her intelligence, what she did with the money that she made. And there
was a story on was it CBS? No, it was, Well,
the CBS did a long interview. Everybody's doing lots of interviews with her going
through the house. Gail what's her name? Who's on CBS Morning, Gail
King? Right, she had a long time with her anyway, So she
talked to JFK as they were going through the reception line. She performed at
the Kennedy Center. I think, as a matter of fact, after she'd
been on the Dinah Shore Chevy Show where the President saw her. He asked
if she would come sing some of Vegas. Was the White House Correspondent Associations
dead? He said sure. So, going through the line to shake hands
with the president, as celebrities do and some people do, they were all
told, don't talk to the president, just say hello, nice to meet
you or something like that, and keep moving autographs just right. Yeah,
she didn't do that. She engaged him in a conversation. He said,
you have a beautiful voice. And then I pulled out a card and asked
him to sign it, and then he held it, he said it back
to she. He he went back and forth. She said, you're a
doll, and some people were surprised to hear you say that, and she
said, I just kind of slipped out anyway. Uh, she was.
She's who she is. She's a very interesting, very I like the fact
that she's with Brolin James role in the actor, it's kind of a B
level guy, but they hit it off immediately as they both tell the story,
and you can tell by looking at them in their body language that they
still really have it for each other. She's eighty one. I think he's
close to it, and so he was in Marcus Well, but he's been
a lot of stuff, but he didn't have the same visibility as she did.
But obviously they have it. So congratulations to her. The book is
called My Name is Barbara if you're interested in her new memoir. I'm Greg

and the Jay Kershner who's lovely. I wouldn't call her cute because that's
probably sexist, right Uh. I wouldn't have taken it. I feel like
everybody can be cute, yeah, right. In new different ways that can
have a positive mm hm, that can have a positive in French and a
negative. You're cute, You're you're cute, you know, and I like
if somebody is not really honest or it's kind of as little sleazy, they're
cute. And then there's there are babies that are cute in the town.
It's also yeah, and it's also a perception. And I I was watching
a video that was talking about like body language and kind of we're always told
you don't don't read between the lines with people sometimes because we put our own
attitude or what's going on in our own lives and somebody else and the whole
saying, yeah, we don't. We don't see things as they are.
We see things as we are. Well, there's there's this one guy who
was saying, if you want to know if somebody likes you, or if
you feel like somebody doesn't really care for you, give them a compliment.
Not nothing grand or nothing huge. Just give them a compliment because if they
do like you, they'll take the compliment. If they don't like you,
they take the compliment as an offensive, sarcastic statement. Perception, Yeah,
perception, reality, all that good. Stuff. I think when we learn
how to handle things like that, it depends on how resilient you are,
if you have run into headwinds in your life and you overcome them. Sometimes
depending on what that is you are you think of yourself. I think it's
more. I think what you just said sort of blends into you are going
to be or receive stuff like that, depending on whatever your own experiences have
been with your parents. Do they praise you legitimately or do they always say,
oh, you're such a good boy or you're such a good girl.
A lot of that foolishness with every car you see my son as an honor
student at Muforeski Junior High School, who cares? That's not really what's your
son really like? Not? You know, that's what he's done. But
what is he really like? Is he friendly? Is he loving? Is
he happyh Those are the more important things I think then, whether he's on
the honor rule at Mufhoski Junior High School, it's just me anyway, broad
spectrum of ideas and experiences that we talk about here on the Good Day Program.
I'm deg Stefan J. Kershner is here and the focus on Israel continues
with Israel saying its troops have advanced to the heart of Gaza City. This
is what the second month of this war. I think it is right.
We've been at this for well over a month. October seventh was yeah,
okay. So in the eighth yep, yeah. The United Nations has has
stepped up their appeal for a humanitarian pause in the hostilities. There's no food,
there's no water. United States has asked net Yahoo to open the door.
Apparently they have a little but not a lot. And I think that
NETANYAHUO is showing his true colors. He's kind of a hard ass. That's
now. On the other hand, if somebody attacked you like they did,
and you know, you want to retaliate so it doesn't happen again, or
somehow put the other side, Listen, nobody's hands are clean in this thing.
I absolutely I'm changing my mind a little bit about how this all started.
Frankly, and so even Democrats who have you know, they're trying to
get Joe Biden reelected or somebody with a D behind their name. But when
you look at the backing of Israel in the conflict, there are a lot
of members of his own party, including Barack Obama, who says that more
has to be done to avoid killing the civilians, and I think he's right.
Frankly, Biden has tried to strike a balance, arguing that Israel has
a right to self defense. Absolutely they do. They have been the last
three or four days careful communications between the two, like Blincoln and whoever's counterparty
is in Israel to be careful. Anyway, you don't hear much from Obiden.
From Obiden so proud, yes, right, exactly. Anyway, so
Obama has kept pretty quiet. He doesn't say much about much, and he's
just enjoying his bank account and you know, okay, that's what happens when
you're a president. But he was asked and he didn't hesitate. He doesn't
He's not a big fan of Annett Yahoo's and doesn't think Biden should trust him.
Basically, So when you look at the numbers, though ten thousand Palestinians
are more have been killed. Well that's if you listen to Amas. Maybe
they is that that's the right number, Maybe it isn't, but a lot
of them have been killed fourteen hundred Israelis. So anyway, then there were
a lot of people who are saying the same thing that Obama said. And
so anyway, I don't want to make a big deal out of what Obama
said, but it's interesting he goes on to talk about Israeli occupation, that's
what he called it, what's happening to Palestinians referred to it as being unbearable.
But what about Hamas and what about what they have done? See,
you take each step along the way, and you see that Hamas has always
been the bad guys. They at least in terms of the sort of step
by step approach to trying to push Israel into the sea. They've used this.
The people who run Hamas very politically astute, very certainly motivated by money,
and so it looks like they really want to get rid of these What
they really want is to get money. They want to be paid off.
That's what Hamas has been about since they started. It's a perfect opportunity for
somebody like Arafat, who was the founder, one of the founders of US
back in the fifties, to extort money from all sides. And that's what
they do to try to bring at peace. They pay off the United States,
usually the biggest one in European countries as well, So I don't see
that the US doesn't continue to have Israelis back. But then there's the you
know, how far is too far? And it's a hard This is a
hard place to be because Nen Yahoo again is not the he's kind of a
wily character. He's a I use the term cute and he's he's acutie,
you know that that meaning of it, and you know what I'm saying,
he's a cutie and so he's put together. Is it possible that he knew?
And others in the inner circle, there are people who say now that
they had to know there was going to be an attack. Now Yahoo decided
not to. This is rumor, this is suggestion that this is inference.
So did he know and not tell anybody because he knew that if Israel was
attacked, he'd be able to put together a government that would stick and he'd
be able to stay in power or something that was going to happen, but
they didn't think it would happen so soon. Yeah, yeah, any of
that, all of that stuff. So anyway, there have been some people
that are Democrats that have been pretty out with their approach to Biden and guys
I don't. So it's exasperating because it's just so much talk. And then
there are these crazy people like this woman in Indiana who crashed on purpose into
a school that she thought was run it was a Jewish school. She got
herself arrested, which is good. She got to go to jail and stay
there. So the allegation is she crashed her car into the Israelite School of
Universal and Practical Knowledge. She thought it was a pro Jewish organization. So
the Anti Defamation League says that this school is an extremist organization that is anti
Israel. So it shows you how stupid this woman is and how stupid some
people are. Just because the word Israel is in it, that doesn't mean
anything. And actually i'd be more suspicious reference to Israelite. To Israelite is
an old, old biblical anti Jewish phrase, if you want to use the
word phrase. So anyway, this woman said to the police that she'd been
watching the school, watching the news, and she just couldn't breathe anymore.
So she's a Palestinian by birth and she felt, well, anyway, you
know, probably you know the rest of the story. You can get the
gist of it, right, just people read the headlines, they don't read
the meat of the story, and they don't really know what's going on.
They are emotions get the best of them. Unfortunately, nobody was injured.
Yeah right. Meanwhile over in Gaza, doctors are performing operations without anesthesia,
the operations amputations. People get shot or whatever it is injured in the melee.
That would not be something I'd be anxious to put up with. But
it's like the old time, you know, bite the bullet, literally chew
on something. But there's not only that, there's such a desperate need for
water and for fuel and food and any kind of healthcare. This is where
some of the deaths are coming from, and so they're trying to get I
guess this week they've been four or five hundred trucks a day of aid going
across the border, or sometimes they get to the border and they can't get
across. But they're trying to get things to the hospitals. But the people
guarding the border don't tr us that, you know, and I could understand
why they wouldn't. Frankly, it's a horrible situation, a horrible place for
them to be. Is this horrible? The whole thing is horrible. If
that weren't bad enough. In Ukraine, it was a grenade sent to somebody
as a birthday gift, somebody in the army, and it blew up and
killed this guy who was one of the heads or an aid to the head
of the armed forces. So this shows you, you know, we've taken
our eye off of Ukraine a bit until it comes to the money department,
and so this is a reminder that there's still ugly, ugly stuff going on
there as well. So it's great business time for Caldron. I would think
the phones would be ringing off the hook and people would be ordering odd nauseum.

Jeremy Renner. Remember that snowplow accident he had was last year? Wasn't it?
Was it last year? Was it? It was? It was New
Year's Day twenty three? Uh huh. That was how he kicked off as
New Year. He was helping out his nephew who was stuck in snow,
and then the plow started to roll away, so when he was attempting to
get back in the vehicle, he fell beneath it and was crushed. He
definitely could have died. God love the guy anyway. He's got some interesting
things that he's been writing now that he's back in action. One of the
occupants of the top ten trending positions in social media on a number of lists
that we're looking at today. As Jay pointed out, this is he's a
very lucky guy. This is the time to celebrate, and he's doing that.
He has been writing some emotional messages on some of the social media revealing
some of the treatments that he's had to get him back to being able to
live his life. Hours of physical therapy, peptide injections. What do you
suppose that involves in a lot of ivy? Is that something stem cell?
Yeah, And it seems like he's not taking a single break every single day.
He is trying. No, it's someone thing. And the thing I
liked that he said about it all was that he's trimmed all the fat out
of his life, just things that he does not have time for. He
will not humor out of politeness or because he feels obligated. He will only
live a life that is truly happiness for himself and serving his friends and family.
And he said he's not going to squander, squander his life away.
He should have died in this accident, and he did it, and not
only did he not die, but it seems like he's making more of a
recovery than anybody thought. He would. He spent a lot of time in
a hyperbaric chamber, which is oxygen therapy. You get into a thing that
Celia in and your body is surrounded by oxygen. That is very healing,
very smart, very expensive, but something you know if you're determined, no
matter what, this is what I want. This is how I get better.
This is a good way to do it. Actually, So from critical
condition to a position now that he can see his life, his journey has
put his head and his body in a different place. Right he's would you
say he's recovered? He probably wouldn't tell you he's fully recovered. But I
think he still walks with the cane if I'm not mistaken, or I think
he can walk without a cane for brief periods of time. He I mean,
he's not going to be filming as Hawkeye for anything in the MCU coming
up, but hopefully that he can get back to it. Yeah. Has
his daughter, I'm going to tell you he has one daughter? Right?
Has he got other children? I think it's just this one. I think
it's just the one from his previous marriage wife. Yeah. Yeah, so
that gives you you want to live your life because of that? If nothing
else, but he's got a lot to live for and has realized that,
and that's why he's a good lesson in healing. The next Stefan Good Day
