The next Stephen Good Day Download with Doug and Jay Kirshner is made possible in
part by kelatrn, which is the safe way for you to lose weight and
keep it off, and also by privigent keeping your brain healthy. Jay Kirshner
and I are here to focus on the good stuff, and sometimes in order
to focus on the good stuff, you have to understand the bad stuff.
Mark Twain said something or wrote something. I thought it was worth a moment
of our time. Jay. He writes, the fear of death comes from
the fear of life. A person who has lived fully is prepared to die
at any time. I wonder if you think that's true or not. If
you think a person has gone all outlived a great life and in their later
years they are less afraid of death. I knew too. That's with me.
I'm not even I don't think about it. I us to think about
it when I was in my thirties, thought about it all the time,
and then through the course of life, coincidental or not. But if you
have less fear, you're probably more likely to live fully. You all know
people who spend their lives worried about this and worried about that. They're afraid
of this. They're afraid of that, and so think about what Mark Twain
said and how it might play out in your life. Just just a matter
of reference. Anything else the Yeah, have you noticed that the prices of
gasoline and diesel have gone up over the last couple of weeks. Yes,
yep, the prices have surged because of the our friends and quartation Mark.
The Saudis have cut production of oil. And it seems to me, when
I go back into the Obama administration, one of the good things about what
was done in those eight years was we became pretty much self sufficient in terms
of oil. Now, the people who are playing with mister the puppet president
seem not to want to have that, and so as a result, we
have a lot of the environmental waho's out there doing what they do to cut
oil production, are going to have electric cars, and so now Saudi Arabia
has come in and said that they will continue to cut the production of oil,
and so about a million barrels of day has been taken out of circulation,
and that's why you see these higher prices. The five week trend affecting
all of us who are traveling summertime right to our vacation. It isn't by
accident that the prices go up the way they do. They do it because
because they're you know, they're happy to screw you as much as they can.
These oil companies and the Saudis are good friends, the Saudies. Yeah,
right, magnificent. I think the average price around here's gone up to
about three eighty seven, three eighty nine. What is it where you are
in Cleveland, Jay, What I've been saying is about between three eighty and
four dollars. Yeah, yep. And earlier this year it was down three
nineteens. In two ninety nine. I can remember being at two nine when
they do the same thing every year. So, and you get shnuokerd by
this, But we all want to go on vacation, right, So,
and I think there's collusion with the auto manufacturers who don't really want to make
electric cars, but they're finding that there is a niche for them to get
started. There are so many depending on the brand, there are lots of
I think Ford has a special deal on electric pickup trucks because nobody wants to
think about this. If you want to drive a pickup truck. Most of
the time, you want to have sort of action. So if you're worried
about going away on a trip into the woods, you're worried that the truck's
gonna run out of energy because you have any place to plug it in,
what are you gonna do. You're gonna buy up for it. You're not
gonna buy any electric vehicle if you're in a city and you don't have to
drive very far back and forth to work. If that's what you use it
for for errands are just a pleasure, and you can keep it, you
know, reasonably close in, then it's probably okay for you. But they
keep touting, uh, three hundred nineteen miles, but people don't think they
oh, you have to gas up the car. So I suppose there's an
awareness of that. But it's different because gasoline is pretty much everywhere. The
electric plug in stations are not, so there's something else to be worried about.
Well, there's so few. So there there have been times where I
see the electric plug in stations and there's like two and they're already being used,
and then you have people waiting and it's it's not as quick it's filling
up your tank. You have to sit there for a longer period of time.
Yeah, they're trying to create quicker places to fill up, but not
that's not working so well. Here and there roller coaster news. Roller coaster
malfunction trapping riders two hundred feet in the air evacuation s is in Sandusky.
The Foot Amusement Park Sandusky is also the home of Cedar Point, right,
and this is part of I think Cedar Point, isn't it's a little west
of you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, this was a Ceder Point and
riders had to walk down these really steep steps because it was the big hill.
M yep, I've I went. When I was in college in Ohio,
northwester I used to go to sandesk as we call it Sandusky. I
was about ten, i don't know, forty thirty five, forty miles from
Heidelberg's campus. So we went up there. And so all of this video
from this malfunction, as you can imagine, everybody's got a camera, and
there it is on social media, riders being forced to evacuate. What does
that do? It doesn't do a lot for Cedar Point, frankly, and
so should these things that's the issue. Should these things be played and just
have people interpret whatever here it is, there it is and basically affect the
commerce of Cedar Point. Was it as bad as everybody? I mean,
it wasn't great for the people who were involved in it, but it wasn't
one of those situations where people were stuck upside down for three hours. Amuse
on perks where these rides are built and they stay there and they run the
test every day, multiple times a day, and they're not afraid to shut
something down for a period of time if it needs to be fixed, as
opposed to I think the more the more dangerous rides are at the traveling car
Yeah, yeah, that come to like go town to town to town,
and those are built to be put up and torn down, and it seems
like those are the rides that more issues typically happen. It's more stress on
the equipment because, as you just said, it's up, it's down,
they put it together, you take it apart. It seems to me that
this summer tell me, if I'm right or wrong in this, that we've
had more attention to roller coasters and things. Wasn't there a couple of weeks
ago that big crack that somebody found in a roller coaster. Yes, yeah,
so then they had shut it down. But they while inspecting it,
they found another crack, another crack. All right, here's the story of
a Florida roller coaster that closed after a boy fell suffered traumatic injuries. A
six year old boy falling from the ride. The boy was on the Galaxy
Spin ride at fun Spot America near Kissimmee. It's just south of orl and
oh that's where Disney is. So this six year old had actually fell off
or was under the roller coaster from trying to figure this out, was on
top of it or under it, and so the he was hospitalized, had
serious injuries. Matter of fact, So don't you have to be buckled in?
And these things don't they have seat belts and protective gear. So a
lot of these kind of thrilled rides you have to be a certain height and
six Yeah right, but yeah, but maybe he this six year old was
tall enough. Yeah, the Galaxy Spin seriously injured. The Galaxy spined roller
coaster described as a wild mouse style type coaster that produces heavy g forces as
riders turned the sharp corners of the ride. Who wants to do that?
You? Well, you probably like this. I don't want to have your
Yeah, I can get the ups and downs. I can't do the loop
to loops, especially when it's like double loops. That that messes with my
equilibrium a little bit too much. So am I a chicken? I've never
been on a roller coaster ride? Never. No, it's not for everyone.
No, And we got to be smart enough to know that. All
right, number of children sent to the hospital after a summer camp bus crashed
in Idaho thirty children hospitalized. The bus crashed on a highway. So is
this something that we all need to know about? I tell the story that
I think to myself, why don't we want to talk about this? Well,
how are you made better or more aware? Is this something if you're
sending your children to summer camp? Do you now want to go check the
bus out? You want to know what the driver's all about? How old
is the bus? You know that kind of stuff. There's a YMCA bus,
I think, wasn't it? A lot of buses there were? You
know those a lottherwise have a lot of these private camps and stuff. They
have buses of their own. Usually they're older buses that have been used for
school service. That doesn't mean just because they're old, that they aren't good
and functional. Yeah, and accidents happen. An accident can happen with just
the parent traveling to the location where everybody's meeting up to get on the bus.
Right, It's just it's not it's not that it will always happen,
but accidents do, in fact happen. I've heard that. So you saw
the video from this brawl in Montgomery, Alabama, the other day, the
violence between blacks and whites on the city's river front in Montgomery's pictures of men
and women fighting, blacks and whites fighting, I would call it people coming
to the rescue of someone who was wrongfully being attacked by some voting thugs.
Right, well, I guess that that's the bottom line there. If you
look at all the videos of the incident, they've gone viral all over the
place the couple of last couple of days. I always love it when somebody
says they're all over X and then in parentheses you know the social media that
used to be Twitter. Yeah, right, different angles. Vantage worker was
doing his job, the voters weren't following direction, and then they wanted to
throw down, and it was like four four or five, four or five
people against this one doc employee and then other people standing by witnesses and they
came to the rescue. And the greatest part was somebody was on a boat
and saw this happening, dove right off their boat, swam through the water
to get up on the dock to join in and help it. Right.
Yeah, well a dozen people were hurting and there are four or five people
that are going to be under arrest as well. He should be. The
doc worker was just doing his job. The story of Sandra Bullock's longtime partner.
I remember when she was married a singer named Jesse James. Remember that,
do you remember? Tattoo artist? Well, so she got rid of
him and then met a fellow who was a photographer who had I think originally
if I remember the story correctly, come to her daughter or child's birthday party
and was the photographer there. So most people like Sandra Bullock, don't you
agree, Jay, She's a popular actor, Charica's sweetheart. Yes, her
former husband as as a personality TV personality, former mechanic. He cheated with
a tattoo artist who was not a tattoo artist. Okay, but everybody loves
Sandra Bullock and everything she does, and she just seems like the sweetest,
coolest person. Yeah. So she met this fellow Randall in twenty fifteen.
His name is Brian Randall, and they took to the relationship and were very
quiet about it for the most part. I think that they went to the
jennerf Aniston and Justin Thurow's wedding right now, Yes, yeah, that was
when they really took it their relationship public because he was a photographer and he
did her son's birthday and that's where they actually met and started dating. They
just hit it off immediately and started dating soon after that, then took they
were a couple of children's wedding. So the bottom line here is that he's
passed away at the age of fifty seven. He had Luke garrig disease a
l S and that can take you apart, but slowly. Apparently it was
three years in there, and that since relatively quickly. He had a three
year battle which he kept private. He wanted to keep private. He asked
his family and friends to honor that request and they did. But after battling
for three years, that just I thought it took longer than that that's a
quick one. That's so heartbreaking, so young fifty seven. She said that
that he was an example that she wanted her children to have. Apparently he
was a very Christian sort and they'll two of them differ in a lot of
different ways. They looked at things differently. She said, I don't always
agree with him, and he doesn't always agree with me, but he's an
example. Even when I don't I agree with him. I'm stubborn, but
sometimes I need to sit back and listen and then go we're saying it differently,
but we mean exactly the same thing. That's what she said. Been
talking about him, and asked why she didn't get married, kind of like
the Goldie Hawn situation. She's like, I don't need a piece of paper
to tell me to weather the storm with. And you know, more and
more people have that attitude these days. I saw a survey the other day
indicating like thirty some odd percent of people that are your age and young ger
just don't see any reason to get married. It's complicated. It doesn't prove
that you'll live an that you'll love anybody. So things are changing. So
the story of the end of Sandraw Bullick's longtime partner Brian Randallly. As we
dig around in social media Facebook and Instagram, it's ad good day radio show,
and on X it's good Day on here. I say this pretty much
every day. I'm almost ready to stop promoting us on X because it seems
so silly. And then when I just said a few minutes ago about somebody
posting stuff from that Montgomery melee and they had to as they post it,
they said they posted it on X and then they feel like they have to
explain in parentheses that it used to be Twitter. Yeah, come on,
all right, speaking of that sort of thing. Mark Zuckerberg, who's in
charge of Meta and Elon Musk yep, Zuckerberg says he's ready for a cage
match with Elon Musk, but he Elon Musk says he has to have some
surgery first. Yeah, there they go. This is the silliest thing they've
been going around for some time. And Mark Zuckerberg is I can't remember what
belt he is, but he's he's a pretty good at jiu jitsu. Yeah,
not want to be messed with. Nah, he suggested August twenty six.
For a time, I don't think anybody should hold your breath for this.
I don't think that you're going to see Musk said he needed to have
an MRI of his neck and upper back. It might require surgery before the
fight can happen. Oh, he's gonna cheat. He's gonna be like the
bionic Man. That's what that surgery is. There's something. Yeah, let's
start that rumor. Okay, how of yourself? This could be the biggest
fight ever in the history of the world. It will be the cost of
pay per view and how many people will actually get in on this, Yes,
how much you're gonna put on Zuckerberg, how much you're gonna put on
Musk? The first fight would be the last fight. Probably. It's silly
stuff and people got needthing better to do with their time, right. We
posted at both when I say we, I mean we, I say I
when I mean I, and I say WE when I mean Jay and I
and others associated with the program. So I put first up this picture of
Sam Elliott, and the phraseology around the picture is as follows. It's okay
for you to believe what you believe. It's not okay for you to demand
others believe the same way, which is certainly psychology one oh one and accurate.
So a lot of likes to that post, as it does represent my
libertarian point of view. I guess on many things. I'm so tired of
people canceling others and YadA YadA, yaha. So a Dennis Stico said,
as a response to this, exactly, so we can take the holy rollers
with religious freedom and tell them to go kick rocks. That is interesting because
most of the people I know who are judgmental claimed to be very religious.
It's kind of like patriots. The people who claim to be patriots. I'm
a patriot. Really they can't see beyond their nose, most of them anyway.
So let's see, there's that comment John Jones. He says he believes
Jay keeps Doug on the straight and narrow. What is that good to do
with what we're saying. You're huh, where do you why? You're right
there? Jay does keep me on the straight. Now that's an accurate statement,
sir, I'm not sure how it applies to this particular phraseology. Jeremy
Wood says, probably the best thing ever refer to the statement, it's okay
for you to believe whatever you want to believe good have strong opinions, but
don't tell me I'm wrong because it doesn't agree with your sway on things and
facts. No, of course they are a lot of people think they are.
It's like I used to get a kick out of knowing yeah right,
knowing Blimbaugh as I did, and Bill O'Reilly's kind of cut of the same
cloth. No spin zone. Everything's a spin with him. So you know,
take take your own continence and be proud of where you are and leave
other people alone. I am Robert Strickler. My wife Joyce and I have

enthusiastically recommend Privigen. It has helped me an awful lot provigen Healthier Brain,

because of the weather. Big lightning storm delayed the tour, and so her
team made sure that fans were able to get home safely, and they were
told to find shelter at the FedEx Field and land over Maryland. This the
concert was supposed to start, but it rained for an hour or more,
so the team paid one hundred thousand dollars to keep local trains running later Yeah,
in order the yeah well so well the show could go on. And
it was the fact that once the show was over, all of those concert
goers, anyone who was going to be traveling back home by train would not
have a way to get home. And so she paid to get them to
keep running later and paid handsomely so that her fans could get home safely.
It's just so cool, yep, it's the way it ought to be good
for her and good for them all. Right up next, the original lyrics
of a queen song may be worth a lot more than you might have thought
they were worth. The number one hit for Queen Bohemian Rhapsody Freddie Mercury there
getting started. So apparently there's a small sheet of paper that was the I
don't know where you got this piece of paper from, but when he decided
he wanted to write the lyrics down or this song, he put it on
a lot of things, going napkins in restaurants and that sort of thing.
Bruce Springsteen at one point ran out of paper and started writing on the table.
Yeah, right before you forget what it is is in your mind.
That's the way you do it. Anyway. So Southeby's is promoting a new,
a huge Freddie Mercury exhibit in London, and they put some things up
for auction, including the lyrics, the original lyrics of Bohemian Rhapsody, and
the people at the auction house say that that piece of paper may well fetch
a million dollars or more at auction for a piece of paper with some ideas.
The centerpiece of the sale also is the grand piano that Freddie used to
use to compose some of the big hits. Oh yeah, yeah, that's
going to go for a lot of mine. Yeah yep. So apparently they're
also draft lyrics handwritten by him from Don't Stop Me Now or Somebody to Love,
We are the Champions. All that stuff is up at auction. Fifteen
different galleries at Southby's have all of this stuff in them and there's a big
sale. So if you got a couple of million bucks, go over and
buy some of that stuff from Freddy. All right, Freddy's not going to
benefit much from it now, but somebody obviously is. So it's great business

we're going to have it underscored here. How is said, so these nutrient
dense foods are for good health. Most Americans are missing these key nutrients from
their diets. So let's listen to this conversation with Jack Miller in the no

And unfortunately, as we've said many many times here and in other places,
the food that we get today, the packaged crap, for the most part,
is just that packaged crapn Young Miles, Stephen Fisher, Hello is here?
Ye Hi Miles Hamburger Hello. All right, So Miles, do you
know what this is? This is two Best not TV. That is a
lottery ticket. Okay, So what does it say on the lottery ticket?
Says mega millions? Right, yeah, it says mega millions. Okay.
Do you know how much a billion dollars is a whole lot of money?
It's very true. So the Mega Allion's prize, now thirty one different drawings
have passed. It's now up to one point five five billion dollars. So
what do you think you'd do with that money? If you won? I
have a ticket for maybe we can win and we can split the money.
Right, what do you think what would you do with money that's all this
money after talking the microphone? Who knows? I mean what would be the
first Probably buy a whole lot of Pokemon codes, Pokemon and Pokemon stuff.
Okay, well there you go. On the bottom line, what do you
do with a billion dollars? You buy Pokemon cots? Yeah, that's it.
So all right, So that's it. We're not gonna help out your
mother, your father, i'd how about everybody in the world as well?
Okay, that's good. Now speaking of helping people, did you know that
Americans were responsible for throwing out more things than any other people, any other
group in the world. And what the reason I bring it up is because
it reminds me of an experience that you and I had. Let's see if
you can remember. Remember this was probably three years ago. You and I
were on the bikes in that park by the four oh five, and we
came upon some caps that people had thrown on the ground. Do you remember
that? Yeah, I do, you do? And so you got down
on your hands and knees. I took a picture of this, matter of
fact, Jay, and you picked up all of the caps and you were
throwing them in the correct disposable whatever. I think a big barrel bins there.
And you said something. I wonder if you remember what you said.
We were talking about litter, and you said something that I have remembered since
that time. Do you remember? Okay? I didn't expect you would.
You said, my face, Emily doesn't litter. And I thought there was
a great lesson for parents to teach their children about literally not to go,
you know, crazy, go overboard. But there's a value there. And
we have a beautiful country, don't you think. Look at all the things
you've seen in your trip here. You've been here for a couple of weeks.
You want to tell Jay and the listeners where you have been over the
past couple of weeks that you came to the East. First, I was
in Boston for two days. Then I was in New York for five days,
and then I was back to Boston for a day, and then I
went up to Maine, Portland, for five days, and then I went
up to deal Aisle for two days, and then and then I've come back
down here for five days, and then I'm going back to La. Why
what's gonna happen when you get back in La. I've got like one day
and then school starts. Excited to start school a little? Yeah? Wow,
what's going to happen in school this year? Ah? You not know?
Oh? Hi, Daisy friends, Daisy's come to be the audience.
I'll probably make new friends, play with my old friends, yea, and
so some of the other things that you do. Just to get a perspective
on an eight and a half year olds at the beginning of the third grade,
right, third grade? Yeah, I'm going into third grade? Great?
Yeah? Right? So how many people from your second grade class will
be with you in the third grade? You know? No, No,
we won't know until later on this week. Who are teachers? All?
So it is it bad that you you don't know any different being back in
school in August? Right? Most of the time when we were, when
your mummy and when your daddy and then go back to Gramps. I went
to school after a labor day in September, so a lot of people think
this is early make any difference? Do you care when you're in school?
Well, the school you is tangly like this. Every year the starting date
moves forward, but the ending date moves forward as well. So you got
so basically it's always the same amount of school ah, same number of days.
Yep, I got it. Okay, So do you have any final
words of wisdom for Jay and or for the audience? What sort of things
do you think? What's the most important thing you can do today? What
are you going to do today? It'll be good, have a lot of
fun. I introduced. We had some donuts Jay that we were selling at
the farmer's market on the farmer the weekend, and there was a package left
over. So I brought them home and I encouraged, when nobody was listening,
Miles to have a donut. And as a matter of fact, I
promised him that you could have some ice cream with the donut. I don't
know that I'm going to be able to deliver on that because his mother's downstairs
watching the refrigerator. Well be the distraction. Yes, so you can get
those that doughnut and ice cream, all right, exactly, all right?
I like donuts an ice scream, Miles, you want to do a commercial

Forty two past the hour. Let's listen to a couple of messages beside getting
you to Las Vegas, and then we focus once again on what's going on?
Who we So I wasn't going to tell this story why Miles was here.
A mother in a town not far from me here in Framingham, hired
somebody that was a Barbie impersonator. So she went you know where this is
going. She went online to find a Barbie doll for her daughter's fifth birthday
party. So she hired This is all over social media now. Lady's name
is Julia Duggan. She's a pharmacist. She made an innocent mistake. She
had this birthday party and hired a Barbie, and it turned out the barbie
was a stripper. Excuse me. So the Barbie impersonator arrives in a bikini
top and a grass skirt. Now, remember these are five year old girls
having your birthday party. And the lady the barbie comes in and kind of
figures out that there was a mistake, but she plays it a little bit
out. She doesn't do the whole act. But and then she found the
five year old, excuse me, held her hand and walked around and met
all of the other girls, and they talked about Barbie dolls and stuff.
And then the adults who were there knew what was going on, and so
you know, it just it became an interesting exchange and an interesting experience.
Right, great story. Can excuse me my attention? When you buy things
online? Yeah right, exactly purchases, yeah right, but just imagine stripper
shows up. I thought that was cute. All right, I'm peers that
the it's been pouring here, as I said, all morning, and the
allergies. Have you said that? I sounded normal until I went outside the
rain. Right, I had to go outside and close the windows of my
tropes not soaking it all up? Is it? Well? It's sold?
How much of it? I'm not. I'm a little wet and a little
cold. Yes, all right. We were talking with Miles about things that
we children are becoming more and more aware of how much trash we're creating.
I thought i'd follow up on that for a second, because as much as
we if you believe a lot of the news media that we're going to hell
in a handbasket. One of the things that's happening is that there are new
materials that are being made the decomposed. Also, there are people who were
starting businesses to fix things that we heretofore have thrown away. We became the
throwaway society, right, We've thrown out pretty much everything you can think of,
things that are made out of wood, things that are made out of
metal, things that are made out of plastic. And so now there is
a new appetite for fixing things. And I was looking at the first example
of this that I came across. This lady has a she's a habit asher.
You know what a habit asher is, James, you know what a
habit ash heer is no clue. Harry Truman was a habit asher. They're
basically tailors. They fix clothing or make new clothing. So this one woman
has started a company that patches jeans, and she started with one and now
she's got in I think on the Midwest somewhere. She got four or five
stores. And what she does is online. She's advertising if you have torn
jeans. Now, some people buy jeans are already torn. I never figured
that one out. But if you've got torn jeans, you bring him to
her and she fixes him, rather than throw them away and buy a new
pair for what does a pair of jeans cost? Thirty five dollars? Forty?
What is it a new pair of jeans cost, Jane? It depends
what kind of jeans they are. Last time you buy jeans, would you
pay? I don't want to say it because nice jeans, Okay, expensive
jeans. So let's say you ripped a hole in him for whatever the reason.
Would you throw him away or bring him to this lady and have her
fix him for twelve dollars. Yeah. I've never thrown a pair of Jean's
way just because there was a hole in them. Normally, if they're somewhere
on the leg, I just I keep the hole. Let it, let
it be. It's part of the style now. Yeah. But if it's
like in the undercare area, yeah, you go get that. Yes,
the undercarriage area. There's a I like that. I have to remember that
expression. The undercarriage area. Jay and Doug here at ten before the hour
