music to my ears and hopefully music to your ears as well. Time to
flip the calendar over into June if you haven't done it already. June first,
June the un is upon us the beginning of the sixth month of the
let's see twenty third year of this century. Can I go deeper into the
year of Our Lord twenty twenty three? Yano domini, which means year of
Our Lord in Latin. Case you didn't get taught that in Catholic school or
even in the eighth grade, A lot of people have take the dependent datives
from the Latin and learn them well in junior high school. I even know
people being taught Latin. Am would you get loud in your schools? No?
I didn't. Some schools you have it as one of the languages,
and no, we did not have that option. It was French. Really
well, the basis of all Romance languages is Latin, which was the basically
that was the official language of Rome, and therefore it became the official language
as the Romans spread their ilkan yuka through all of what is now Europe and
trying to they wanted to control the world. How many characters have we had
in the history of the world who wanted to control everything? They were going
to control the world? Yeah, the latest. The Chinese people say,
well, the Americans wanted to control the world. Well, I don't know.
We didn't go shopping for a land where the Dutch did, the French
did, the British did the British? Actually, yeah, most aggressive and
more like nation in the history of the planet, at least far as we
know. And now along comes artificial intelligence. If not taken care of very
quickly, I mean very quickly, in the next twenty to thirty years,
we probably will be vanished. I don't mean to say that, And oh,
I do mean to alarm people because I think, but yes, yeah,
yeah, the world already is not as I grew up. The world
is not how you grew up, probably a couple times over, it's how
your children grew up. And with AI there are so many things that are
are really dangerous about it, with people relying on it too much forgetting how
to function AI, learning things in a manner that really should make a lot
of people uncomfortable. And I've even seeing a lot of especially with the chat
GPT, I'm seeing a lot of sponsored advertisement of using it and hey,
if you do this, here's how you can use chat GPT to your benefit.
It is already teaching people how to I don't want to say, be
lazy of it for lack of a better Yeah, relinquish their ability to think.
Even the guy who runs chat GPT says, oh, oh, we
better stop this. That's that seems to me to be enough of an indictment
right there. But make no mistake about it. This is something to deal
with. It could end humanity and that's not overstating it. It is that
dangerous. And we've responded it's all about money. People who created this,
What the hell are they creating it for? Just so they can make Okay,
I'm gonna I'm going to devise this and therefore I'll make lots of money,
and then you'll be dead there because they will do well. If they
want to take over the world, it's either bugs or and then how do
they reproduce though that's the question, because you have to have some sort of
organic components so they make more of themselves rather than I suppose there's a different
way of looking. Well, they've already started clooning things. What was it,
Dolly the sheep? That was a while ago. Yeah, well let's
have some fun, shall well what would make you smile? Think about that
this morning or this afternoon or this heaving whatever it is that you're listening to
our program. By the way, the folks in womb have had a tough
time listening on K fifty seven over there, not in a tough time listening
to K fifty seven. They've had a tough time with the weather. Weather
tough in that part of the Pacific, and whether it's where we're dealing with,
whether one wonders about artificial intelligence and how that might impact the weather,
You know, everybody's so worked up. I put aside all the concern that
people have for climate change. That should just go away. If you're going
to focus on one thing, you better be focused on artificial intelligence. Now.
If there was something, if I'm as I'm saying that maybe in twenty
years, if I were saying the same thing in the same way, there's
a chance that artificial intelligence would disconnect us, would disconnect you from me as
they monitor whatever as whatever it is. You know, we're also so concerned
about LGBTQ things and what's woke and whether this child at thirteen should be a
male or a female. All of that stuff is nonsense. And if the
big picture is really the big picture, then artificial intelligence is the big picture.
So I think we just and all of the business about us fighting about
nonsense. The Republicans versus the Democrats. One thing that happened yesterday with the
passing of the debt ceiling. The vote was three fourteen to one seventeen in
favor of having this. I said yesterday and I will say it again today.
I think Kevin McCarthy did a good job. Biden. I'm not sure
how much of this work was being done by him or underlings. Certainly they
both have staffs. But there was a coalition of Republican and Democrat that worked
together. And so what was the outcome, Well, I guess, if
you want to go to the cliff, it was avoiding economic disaster. Would
that really have happened? I don't know, And who wants to find out
under the circumstances. You know, really, you know what people around you
say and what people think. What do you think? Did you really understand
what was going on? I tried a couple of times over the past week
or so to go through the bill with you and just talk about the highlights.
I think the best thing about it is cutting spending in areas where spending
needs to be kind. I don't think I think the Republicans were right on
this all the way through it, except it didn't go far enough. It
should have been much much deeper. That cuts much deeper. There's so much
waste, so much fraud, but it's in the best interests of both Republicans
and Democrats to keep some of that not much of it going, and it's
not your best interest no matter what. You can listen to the mantra from
some of these goofballs who are supposedly leaders of the party but they're not,
or maybe they're people who are out there that are trying to justify their existence
by having some cause or be associated with some company that benefits. There are
a lot of people who still there's so much corruption, a lot of people
still are going to have big pay days, but at least this is something
that keeps the ball rolling and cuts back on spending that needs to be cut.
But nowhere near enough of that was cut far as I'm concerned, So
let me I want to go back to smiling for a second, though,
Can we do that, Jay, Let's smile. I think about things that
make you smile. I think about taking a train trip across from Chicago to
Vancouver. That trip is supposed to be one of the most re markable that
in the Orient Express or some of the trains to go across Europe. Those
times would make me feel better. Not that I feel bad. I don't
feel badly at all. I feel fine. But think about taking the time
I haven't ever in my really in my lifetime, I haven't really taken when
I was whenever I took a trip, or even today when I take a
trip, there's a reason for it. I think we should all take a
trip and have no reason. Just take a trip, right, if you
go by yourself or I'd like to have a traveling opinion, frankly, yeah,
right, yeah, Well, I always like the there's the difference between
a trip and a vocation. I feel like trips you're more busier, you
sometimes nativocation after your trip, depending on how busy you are, how scheduled
the itinerary is. And then an invocation is like okay, you're just shutting
down and relaxing and just yeah and doing something different and yes, yeah,
doing so many different. The NBA Finals begin tonight. They're on ABC at
eight thirty Eastern time? Who will win? All right? You putting your
money on anybody? You and your husband talk about this? Ryan, Well,
we watched Game seven of Boston and Miami. Um, I don't know,
maybe the nuts really, yeah, that'd be a nice one. Yeah,
yeah, I guess it is. Yeah, okay, Um, for
those of you who want to travel in the scumbuckets, this is this is
scumbag city here. Dirt bag news includes a fertility doctor accused of using his
own sperm to impregnate patients. Remember that story. This is a guy who
had what he was seventy years old. He had a number of what twenty
eight or something children. So he was flying in an experimental aircraft and it
crashed and he was killed. So see you later. Um. Both of
the both the pilot and this guy, the passenger, mister Whartman, were
killed instantly. And the plane fell to the ground after its wings fell off.
This was some kind of experimental plane. Yeah, I laugh about it
because aircraft. Yeah. The other guy, all right, excuse me.
Another dirt bag in the news today is Danny Masterson, the actor. This
guy's been in the news, in the negative news for what three four years?
This has been going on for a really long time, right, yep.
He's officially been convicted oncounts of rape. Yep. So with that,
one wonders about some of the other serious charges. Is Donald Trump going to
get convicted of rape? What do you what? What do we think about
that? And I don't talk much about it because I don't know that I
think it makes well. I should say it does make a difference certainly the
people who were involved, no question about that. But then, okay,
at the end of the day, what does it all amount to. You
know, it's this guy's still going to run for president. He's all busy
distracting, talking trash about his former press secretary, Caleb Is it was it?
Mac and Emmy I forgot how to pronounce your name. Yeah, that
sounds about right, and saying that she's not a big enough start to even
be on Fox News and she said the poll wrong. The poll had been
updated and she had the numbers wrong. Or is it the rhinos can have
her Republican the name only. Yeah, he has a nickname for everyone.
I mean, you do have to give it to the man. He has
an equal opportunist when it comes to calling whack a doodle thinking, all right,
here's another dirt bag this minute. Middle school? Was it a monitor
teacher sending naked images of students? What the hell is it? Yeah?
Yeah, yeah, she was naked and she sent the pictures to children that
were what fourteen, fifteen, sixteen years old? Oh it was younger middle
school, even younger at sixteen, like probably thirteen fourteen, maybe fifteen ish.
Again, the question you talk too much? I've been accused of that
over the years. Have you ever been accused of that? Jay? Probably
not, I have not, No, never, right people, No,
I take that back. When I was younger in elementary school, I was
one of those like, whatever the lesson the teacher was teaching was at the
time, I had some story that I wanted to share, whether whether or
not. Yeah, that's good, express yourself. It's another good song for
a talk radio program. This is a conversation show The Good Day Show Jake
Kirshn or Doug Stephen at Ready on June first, with a focus on a
neat hiking app which has released thousands of trail maps. You can download them
free. This is good for a hiker safety and one of the most popular
of these apps. Twenty seven thousand trail maps. Wow. Who would have
thunk it? In a manner of speaking? Are these? I think they're
all across the country as a matter of fact, right, and this is
to help not only people have a good time, but also for those people
who get lost. Ye, much as anything hills, right, Yeah,
this is a fantastic Yeah, this is good. Are you a hiker?
Do you like to go? You and Ryan garden hiking? Yeah, yeah,
we go on walks a lot. Where we are now in Nashville.
We would hike a lot. When I lived in La I would hike a
lot. Yeah, a lot of places. My daughter hikes a lot,
takes her son out, my grandson. They go up into the hills.
Yeah, they're a lot of great places. It's great and have a good
time, all right. I've decided that I want to spend a good deal
of time every day on artificial intelligence and the different ways in which I don't
want to you know me, I don't like talking about the same thing more
than once. It's I think it's boring. If I'm board, the audience
is bored. But there's nothing boring about the confrontation that we are even now
having with artificial intelligence. And I say we now and the collective, but
more specifically the radio world. There are a lot of artificial intelligence chat bots,
not boxes, but bots, and so the largest radio company not my
favor, but they you know, they would be in this circumstance something to
deal with. They're trying to deal with it themselves, addressing concerns over some
of the public chat bots, and so what iHeart has decided to do is
ban their use in any company project. We had. Jennifer was a couple
of weeks ago because she works for Salem on Krola and Los Angeles and others
to write up a fake text release, right yep. Well, and there
are things that if you scroll through social media, some of the posts and
some of them are even sponsored. We'll have things like this is what I'm
looking at right now. Eight chat GPT prompts to finish hours of work in
seconds, and then he strolled through the slides and it gives you the exact
thing to say to prompt the chat gpt bot and doing all the work like
change writing style, consultant expert, train it to learn your writing like good
grief. Forget the need for copywriting and copyright infringement. People are just going
to be like, Okay, I have a book report to do on this
and take it away chatz Right. Nobody's going to learn anything. Will become
robots, which is what artificial intelligence is all about. It's like with the
precursor to this, as much as you all thought it was wonderful, al,
isn't it great? We have these things in our hands, these fabulous
instruments that we can look up anything. Who doesn't walk around with an iPhone
or something like it in their hands all day every day, who doesn't sleep
at the media knowledge Whenever you have a question of like, oh, who's
that actor in this film? You can look it up quickly, you can
google. Google has become a verb, and it's just it got to a
point where it's like, okay, maybe this is good, this is good
enough. Let's well this idea that comes from this company, but it ought
to be a concern for everybody, some of the people who are on the
air, some of the people who are programming radio stations, some of the
people as you're talking about, working behind the scenes. So to ban public
artificial intelligence use, is that a good idea? Absolutely, no conversation.
Otherwise you give over all of your power. You're giving it like when people
give their power to a religion. This is worse than any religion because there
are no tools to protect yourself or anybody from this at the moment, and
the government is, as usual sitting not knowing what to do or not wanting
to do anything, and not being effective. So how this is up to
you. This is all the proprietary information that companies have, large and small,
Gonzo. This stuff will break into anything and steal anything and everything.
We worry about the Russians and the Chinese affecting our elections. All they're gonna
do is set some robot onto the task of getting into the computers. I
mean, it's just it melts everything. It destroys everything, and I'm not
overplaying this. It will destroy everything. You name it, you look at
it, you experience it. Artificial intelligence will destroy life on the planet.
It'll destroy your life, It'll destroy your family, It'll destroy all the friends
you have, It'll destroy everything. Your job is everything. And I'm not
being overly sensitive to this, but I would like a few things in my
life have I thought ought to be dealt with quickly and with like dealing with
the Nazis. Right, this is worse than the Nazis. This destroys everything
there is. I don't see some people say, oh, yeah, there's
some good stuff in it. I was talking earlier on mysel Yeah. Right.
My sister had a heart attack yesterday, actually the day before, but
the night before, and so she went into the hospital and had an exam
and they quickly found out using the tools of the trade, what the problem
was. And so she went into Mass General yesterday and they did this another
Actually, there's an interesting story about the reality of the health system. My
sister's husband, my brother in law, has been in the insurance business for
fifty some ideas of family business, and so he knows all kinds of insurance
from top to bottom, and has frequently had conversations with me about how the
insurance world is not really keeping up with the needs and the needs of patients,
but also with the information boom, how do you There's a lot of
stuff going on now, a lot of illnesses that are coming in fast,
and COVID was probably an example of Now there's come new kind of bug around.
Who knows where that's going to go? Yeah, there's always something and
so, and by the way, artificial intelligence can exacerbate, can make the
world of nuisance or worse like the what we had with COVID. Artificial intelligence
can make it three times worse than it is. It's you have no idea
what all of this includes. Well, and there has to be build it
because with with health and in terms of medicine, it is wonderful. But
as it's in those sent instances, it's being run and being controlled. AI
is being controlled by human intelligence. So you have these professionals who are using
it for a situation that can help that. It can almost cut the time
in half where human can do this stuff. But in terms of saving a
life, it's better if this AI has all the data and can cut that
time in half and come to a solution, where in terms of the everyday
public maybe not, because it's not human intelligence owning it and running it.
Now is it is laziness. Some people stopping to think. People can't even
imagine. Really, I don't think what the power is of this speaking of
power, a lot of people on the AM good and bad side. This
has been going on, this conversation for a couple of months now. The
power of AM radio in emergencies has been discussed by lots of people on radio
stations to carry this program. There are a lot of people I've been I
know that the bulk of my career I've been on according to some statistics over
the years, doing this program, and I've probably had a dozen different radio
jobs, dozen different stations that were station jobs, not the network and syndicated
stuff. But this program, in the thirty five thirty six years has been
on the air, has been on close to fourteen hundred radio stations, and
of that, I guarantee you the twelve hundred of them were AM radio stations.
And so there's that people who've grown up listening to AM and people say,
ah, you know need it. I'm going to go to that point
in just a second. But there are a lot of people who stay with
the argument that in emergencies there's no place else to go, and that's really
a good argument. It's not the strongest, but it is a good argument.
Provides news, well, there's not so much of that, some of
it anymore. A lot of local news has gone the way the wind.
But the good stations are still doing that with websites, are on the air,
broadcast or whatever. But when people mostly depending on where you are in
the country, it want news. The big radio station in Boston number one
most listened to, the two most listen to stations in Boston, or the
news station and the talk station that tells us something, and they're both AM
stations. There are other stations in if you go to the stations in Cleveland
where you are J three WE that's still the talk station there, right,
and there's I don't even know if there's a news stations. Yeah, but
some of the AM stations have their brothers sister stations on ATY and like a
lot of them who would would go, oh, I remember going to eleven
hundred to listen to Browns games, Uh, yeah, baseball all that stuff,
And now there are also some cast on their FM sister station. Yeah,
there's a lot of that going on anyway. On the other side of
the scale, equal opportunity and the AM band detractors. There are some people.
This was in the you know, the fourteen or fifty different sources I
look at every day, and the Boston Globe yesterday had an opinion piece from
a guy who's always been out to lift. In my mind, his name
is Jeff Jacoby's out to lunch. But he downplays the importance of AM radio,
saying, quote, it's lost its appeal, no longer justifies the complexities
involved to keep it in electric vehicles, What the hell do you know?
Would be my response. I'd love to have a debate with this guy.
I was like, I love having debates with people, Like one of my
favorite debates is methane gas and what comes out of a cow. That's a
great debate for me to get into. And the same thing here. This
guy says, well, we all have a cell phone. No, we
don't all have a cell phone, your arrogant ass. No, that's not
true. Some people have little flip phones. And is that the same as
a cell cell phone. That's a cell phone. Yes, it's not a
smartphone, but not a cell phone, right, he says, even in
vehicles, it don't include AM motorists can readily tune to an AM station through
streaming radio apps. And you know what, I there are the apps that
we talk about for Good Day Show. You can find we stay up with
that Good Day. You can find our podcasts, and you can find our
downloads every day at good dayshow dot com or wherever you listen to your podcasts.
Okay, that's well, but some people don't. For example, I
don't really know how. I don't take the time to plug all that stuff
in when I get into my car or my truck that has all of the
hoots and boots on it. You know, I can if I plug my
radio into the facilities on one of my trucks, then it takes over what's
being aired on the radio. And I don't like that either. Anyway.
I think that this guy's got his head stuck up where the sun doesn't shine.
And I wanted to be able to say that and feel good about it.
Frankly, it is National Dairy Month, so enjoy a little extra ice
cream, enjoy a little extra milk. It doesn't take much to get me
off onto a tangent when it comes to talking about milk. As you may
know, those of you who have listened to me, over the years,
you know that I have had cows. They've been in my life. I
can't imagine my life without having cows, and I've been around cows all my
life. I raise jersey replacement heifer's knee asional Holstein and some of the other
breeds make it into the gang that I have at my farm. I have
a bovine sanctuary, and so I'm closely associated with the world of real milk.
And so if you're going to celebrate June and National Dairy Month, please
do us all a favor, including you and your family. Get real milk
and don't celebrate. If anybody says to me, well it's a National dairy
Month and they point to a finger, they point a finger at some almond
milk. Yeah, perhaps, yeah, yeah, all right, take a
bathroom. I'm that demographic. Yeah, okay, good for you. Boo.
Radio world has been affected this week by the fires up in Nova Scotia.
We were breathing here. Who I am in the Northeast, I'm in
Massachusetts. And the year the last couple of days has been really You smell
it, you can see it, you can feel it. It's just so
heavy. And on days like even today, where we have a lot of
moisture in the year. The dewpoint is it's not humid. It's just that
the mist is there and it combines with all of the smoke and the haze,
and it really is you can smell it. You can it's it's not
it's capable. So that's one impact of it. But I've never heard of
this before, although some of my radio colleagues tell me this has happened before.
This. We keep talking about the AM signals and that sort of thing.
So there are FM signals that normally don't travel. One of the benefits
of AM radio is the signals travel further because they AM amplitude monida. But
is that modulation sticks close to the ground. That signal hovers on the ground,
and therefore you can get it over a wider area. FM frequency modulation
is more of a closer in signal a signal quality is better, but it
doesn't go as far. So it's very unusual to have a Tampa radio station
on FM. A matter of fact, I never thought it was even possible
until I saw these things happening. So those of you who are listening on
AM stations, you're not affected much by this, if you're listening on an
FM station, it may be that people are picking up your station. Let's
say you're in Florida, the station signal may be going all the way to
Virginia, which is unheard of. And then there were Philadelphia stations that are
being heard on Long Island. Never had that happened before, and that I
can remember anyway, very rare natural phenomenon that's tied to these wildfires that still
are not in conder out of control in Canada, and it's almost acting the
clouds. Yeah, right, exactly have you noticed that change in your sunsets
when the sun is setting, do you see? Yeah? Actually they hated
in the air. Yeah, it actually makes the sun seem ridder or even
maybe some people say hotter because it looks like it's hotter, but it's not
really. It's what you're seeing. It's affected by what's going on here on
earth. But it's just it is is very obvious what's going on. And
so and now I understand what people were talking about about the West Coast last
year with all those fires out there and how it did affect their lives from
top to bottom. Law as we're talking about Canada, a couple of other
things. Sixteen children were injured in a fall during a school trip. This
was going into Fort Gibraltar, which is a tourist attraction in Manitoba. The
doctor that treated all of these people they're all they're okay, but they fell
like twenty feet as they were out. There were some broken bones and that
kind of stuff. The idea was the end of the year. There are
always school trips, right, we didn't We always go on field trips at
the end of the year. We were getting the bus and go out for
a couple of hours midst Yeah did you do it? Yeah? Yeah,
we'd had a DC trip. Yeah, let's see here. Also in Canada
this week the announced it was made by the government that they're going to be
the first country in the world where warning levels have to appear on the individual
cigarette. Used to be and still is in many countries where they have the
picture on the cart and a big warning and the skull and crossbones, and
sometimes there were pictures of people who were dying of lung cancer that were put
on the package. But now this year in Canada they're going to help people
quit the habit. They think this will do. It takes effect the first
of August, and so all of the they whether no matter what, sooner
or later, the warning is going to be on all sides of ciga.
So they're gonna start with a big one and then individual the individual. And
it's in um. They have the warnings in English and in French, and
they say different things along the lines of poison in every puff, cigarettes cause
impotences back and smoke arms children. I mean they are good for that,
all right, Core, Yeah, I'm all for this. My mother died
because she smoked, and I wonder how her life would have been different,
in our lives would have been different if it wasn't for the fact that she
smoked. And how many of you come from families that have been you have
been affected by secondhand smoke? You know whether most of the people. I
don't know anybody in my circle who smokes. And frankly, I know this
sounds that this woman will probably send me mister perfect. I'd never smoked anything.
I've never done any drugs in my life. I don't like alcohol,
and I just you know, it's just my choice. But I think subconsciously
I made the choice because of the abuses I saw in mother's life which ended
at the age of fifty because she smoked and she drank too much too,
but it was part of mostly most of the stuff is about smoking. So
I'm happy to see this. What do you suppose that tobacco lobbyists in America
are so strong? They were so corrupt here in America. I when it
comes to this sort of thing that you know, it's imagine cause health issues.
So let's just charge more money onto it and tax as much as we
can. Yeah, well that's what we do. Yeah, that's that's how
we deal with it. Charge more, and maybe that will make people stay
away from them. Who knows. There are a lot of people who are
trying to take apart this debt ceiling negotiation and the vote that was very much
in favor of it. And so now the politicians are saying I won,
no, I won, no, I won. Yeah, they all want
to take credit for the whatever the negotiating positions were, and why this side
one and that's I didn't win, and blah blah blah blah blah. Does
it make a difference now? It does, because the real question, Yeah,
the real question should be are the American people going to be the winners?
Of this, not the parties. I shouldn't be about the parties,
but yeah it should. Well, I don't think I'm maybe I'm making I'm
making myself clear. Um, I don't want to hear Biden say he won.
I don't want to hear McCarthy say that I won. We Won's that's
not the same same. Is it the win a win for the American people?
Yeah? Right, it's not a win for Biden. It's not a
win for McCarthy. It's not a win for one side or the other.
It just is good that it's, at least for now it's straightened out and
move on to other things like discussing how to curb the problems of artificial intelligence.
That's something, and I to this ought to be. Hey, this
is gotta be the number one issue in the campaign, no matter who is
running. Trump desantish this guy Tim Scott, which interesting looking around at people.
Tim Scott is an interesting senator. He has an interesting record. He's
from South Carolina. If you didn't know that, he says he wants to
run for president and this week, Wow, this the amount of money this
is. But I say wow, because I'm looking at some numbers here from
various people who are very wealthy and how much they raise or they put into
various um campaigns. So Larry Ellison, do you know that name? Jay?
You know who Larry Ellison is? I do not recognize that one,
all right. Larry Ellison was the founder of Oracle, which became a very
big and still is in many circles, one of the big computer companies.
This is one of the companies response for a lot of software and product and
this guy Tim, this guy, Larry Ellison, has become I think he's
the third richest guy in America, if not the world. He's got a
lot of money anyway. So he's announced that he's going to support Tim Scott.
Why is this important because in the last round last fall for regional elections,
that is, Senate elections, gubentorial elections, representative Congress elections, this
guy spent thirty million dollars, Larry Ellison thirty million dollars. He formed a
super pack that supported various mostly Republican candidates. Thirty million dollars. One person
puts thirty million dollars into the electoral system. There's something gravely wrong with that.
Interesting from two different points of view, that somebody like this would put
this much money behind Tim Scott. I think Tim Scott is qualified in a
lot of different ways. He's pretty moderate Republican and as a good track record.
And so there's two sides to this coin Jay. One of them is
that this guy would stand up and commit millions of dollars to help see Tim
Scott get elected. And then the other side of it is what citizens united,
that ruling of what ten twelve years ago, how that's affected. So
the corporations like Oracle can give as a human as a single person declared as
an individual by the ruling the Supreme Court passed on. So this guy can
raise and he doesn't have to even raise it, just writes a check from
his own bank account to promote somebody. So, as I said, two
sides to that coin. Is it policy over principal? I don't know.
I have to think about that. I am Robert Strickler. Joyce and I
have been married for fifty three years. Certainly one of the really important things
in my life are our children and our grandchildren. I am essentially a writer.
I've been involved in communications in the media. I've been an avid fly
fisherman for at least forty or more years. I've been taking Privigen on a
regular basis for at least eight years. For me, the greatest benefit over
the years has been that Privigen seems to help me recall things and also think
more clearly, have a crisper ability to remember and think through things. And
I enthusiastically recommend Privigen. It has helped me an awful lot. Provigen Healthier

to or some you know, something to look in awe on how do these
people even live? I used to be called the Dugger on the air,
and so you were digging the Dugger on FM one oh five point seven.
This is no relationship to that. Jill Dugger says she's done with secrets,
She's got a new memoir out, She's gonna set everything straight. Good for
her, you know, good forster. Do you watch the did you follow
these people. They seem like they're kind of no no, I mean,
how could you not know what was going on? Yeah before when it was
nineteen and counting and right, I never watched it, but I still knew
enough about it. And then all of the abuse allegations and everything, and
some of the kids have come out and said that they were told at the
time that they're basically gas lit, and then they were told not to talk
about anything and family businesses, family business and all of that stuff. And
some of the daughters who were molested by their own brother have come out and
said, We're not going to stay quiet anymore. This is ridiculous, And
good for Jill for wanting to share her story because also that can be very
healing. It's not just eric dirty laundry for a book. It can be
very healing. Yep, it's all about that. We were talking about therapy
earlier. All Right said this book. It isn't really just Jill Dugger.
It's your husband, Derek that apparently is into the revelation as well. This
memoir is called Counting the Cost. Now, I'm not here to sell the
book, but I do think Jay is one hundred percent correct when these things
come out. It's good therapy for the people. And these people, sure
as he'll need a lot of therapy getting the kind of stuff going on in
that family. And we sort of and it's not like the Kardashians. Somebody,
Oh, look at the Kardashians. Now, it's not that kind of
it's this is a very creep yeah, more than creepy. They had a
s religion they followed that was quote unquote questionable. And Jill, I think
all of the Dugger children, or most of them, got married at a
young age. So for a lot of them, their spouses have been a
part of the family for a long time, even if they are in their
early thirties or late twenties. And so Jill's husband, Derek, he kind
of experienced a lot of this, not to the same extent as Jill growing
up in this family, but he was there and for as long as both
of them could in their marriage, they tried to be obedient family members.
They didn't want to rock the boat. But once you become a parent of
your own, you realize that you want to protect your family. You might
not want to be part of sharing secrets anymore, because sometimes that can be
a little bit guilty by association, yea. And so they are coming out
with their their book counting the costs. Well, I think that in there
are lots of people unfortunately like this, families around the country that have these
experiences. So maybe in part there's a nerve that's been struck here and anybody's
going through this that you can come out. Yeah. I think there's a
story of hope in there too, yea. All right, So it's great
business time for Caldron. I would think the phones would be ringing off the

eight five five triple line thirty six eighty four. One of the things happening
this week can it's National Save your Hearing Week? And I'm guessing that there
are a lot of people that come to see you that are wearing some sort
of hearing device. The hearing aids that are around now, are they really
a lot better? You see a lot of advertising, But I wonder what
you know when you think about people afflicted with hearing loss, people who can't
hear. I have a guy that works for me on the farm can't hear
well at all, and if he's out in the general population, he's you
know, people if they can't hear, they seem to be ostracized to a
certain extent. You know, there are a lot of I remember reading in
philosophy, Aristotle used to call people who couldn't hear barbarians, because sometimes if
you can't hear, you can't speak either. Right, So what do you
think the latest good advice is for people who may have a cognitive problem,
who may have some kind of medical problems. Some people are born without being
able to hear. These hearing devices, are they really as good as the
advertising suggests revolution in this field, and we now know, beyond any doubt,
if you want to preserve your mental health, your ability to think and
reason, if your hearing is not good, it will impair your ability to
preserve your mind as you get older. Doug, it amazes me. I
have so many patients myself included, who wear glasses and have their seeing aids
and don't even think about putting on glasses. But the seeing aids are okay,
But if you talk about the hearing aids, it's a whole different story.
I don't get it. But they have been miniaturized. If you haven't
shopped for hearing aids in a long time, go talk to a specialist in
this area. You'd be amazed how miniature they become. The prices are hefty
that but they have come down, and you don't know what you're missing,
the old cliche. But also we now know you'll preserve your own mind and
you'll also preserve the vocal chords of the people around you if you get your
hearing as all right, So there's something going on. Also this week Awareness
Day for chronic immunological say that again, FAST and neurological diseases the acknowledgement here
that Florence Nightingale was the one who first called attention. It wasn't a doctor,
but it was. I think she's she's considered. I was about to
say, the father of modern nursing. How about the mother of modern nursing?
And how that if you have neurological imperfections, let's say that's probably the
politically correct way of looking at these things. How is that this is a
disease? Is the treatment improving as we move along to so many other improvements
in medical cognition, and what about neurological diseases? Oh my gosh, the
future is going to be unbelievable. Um Elon Musk just got approved from the
FDA to put computer mapping into the brain. And it's so high tech.
The FDA is not even talking about what they approved him and one of his
companies to be allowed to do. But people who have inabilities to move,
to, think, to and interact with their environment. The ability of the
future high tech to help people who currently don't have any hope. The hope
is going to be there in five to ten years from now. People are
going to be able to with these high tech options interact ailment Artificial intelligence play
into this. Do you think in the future AI is going to play into
everything in medicine, from looking at imaging, from diagnostics to coming up with
new therapies that it's been a whole bunch on that you can't even imagine what
he is going to do to medicine. We got to be careful, but
it's going to be for sure. Doctor Ken Cronhouse here from Late Cardiology and
