I am yes, 7 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:35,039 and so we have good news for those of you who keep buying lottery 8 00:00:35,079 --> 00:00:38,920 tickets. This is a good way for you to do it. Move out 9 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,640 of your house, live in the backseat of your car, and join this 10 00:00:42,719 --> 00:00:52,200 California woman who overcame this problem of being homeless now is a dental a MOLDI 11 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,039 yeah, I guess you would call five millions multi millionaire, right, more 12 00:00:56,039 --> 00:01:00,759 than one million? Yep? Her name is Lucia Force. She had no 13 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:07,120 housing back couple of years ago. She was trying to overcome the challenges of 14 00:01:07,159 --> 00:01:11,799 all the things we've all been through the last few years. But Miss fourths 15 00:01:11,159 --> 00:01:18,680 puts all that behind her now because she was a lucky scratcher ticket winner. 16 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:23,400 And I feel like scratchers are underrated. Really yeah, it seems like a 17 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:27,159 lot of people win a good amount on scratchers. Have you no, Like 18 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,280 I said, they're underrated? I forget to play those. Yeah, yeah, 19 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,280 you buy the big ones, right, I do too? When I 20 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:38,120 buy one, just give me one of those random numbers. What do they 21 00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:42,319 call it a quick pick? Yep? Well, this lady bought one ticket 22 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:49,120 and one ticket only, and it won. She went to a Walmart in 23 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,439 Contracosta County had an oil change for her car because she needed to have the 24 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,120 car run the right way, seeing as you never any else. She had 25 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,239 no other possessions, so she got the ticket. She was sitting outside, 26 00:02:01,799 --> 00:02:06,239 scratched it, and then she thought, as she was looking at it, 27 00:02:06,319 --> 00:02:08,960 she want a free ticket. But then she looked at it again and it's 28 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:16,960 five mill So this is the end. By the way, the ticket was 29 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:23,159 called twenty twenty three. How about that given the fact that she was homeless 30 00:02:23,199 --> 00:02:28,159 a few years ago. Kind of a random thing. Anyway, She's gonna 31 00:02:28,159 --> 00:02:34,080 buy a house and she'll invest the rest of it, hopefully where homes because 32 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,960 she didn't have a job. I didn't get that out of putting the pieces 33 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,080 together here usually people that don't have a job don't have any money if you 34 00:02:40,159 --> 00:02:44,560 have a job, although there are some people who have jobs that are still 35 00:02:44,599 --> 00:02:47,400 homes or multiple jobs and they just still can't afford to pay for housing. 36 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:52,919 Yea, she had a car, so she had enough income where she could 37 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,800 get gas. Yeah, exactly around But yeah, yeah, yeah, good 38 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,400 for her. That's great. And now when it comes to scratchers, do 39 00:02:59,479 --> 00:03:04,000 they have the same amount of tax is taken out as you know, that's 40 00:03:04,039 --> 00:03:07,439 a good question. I don't know the answer to that, but I'm sure 41 00:03:07,039 --> 00:03:13,759 some very improvisational improvin Is that a word improvented? Yeah, it is a 42 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,960 word. Somebody who is a quick thinker will look that up and let us 43 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:23,240 know. Either on social media Facebook and Instagram it's ad good Day radio show, 44 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,800 and on Twitter it's good Day on air. And then of course there's 45 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:34,080 always eighty five five nine nine nine dug that works as well. The idea 46 00:03:34,199 --> 00:03:38,280 that when you get into the money department, you know there are people like 47 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:43,439 she seems reasonable from at least what we can read in the lines between the 48 00:03:43,479 --> 00:03:45,479 lines. But there are a lot of people who win the money, and 49 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:50,240 it's for some of blessing, it for others, it's a curse. So 50 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:57,199 when you are thinking about the headed in the wrong direction, I guess we've 51 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,039 all had those moments though, right, And are we smart enough to make 52 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:06,080 a change the realization that, for example, was Mother's Day yesterday? What 53 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:11,240 did you do from Mother's Day? Jay? What kind of point did you 54 00:04:11,719 --> 00:04:16,079 Jusky? Over in Sandusky? They call it the Ohiowens call it in the 55 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:23,959 ohioans are Ohiolands, and you you go. I remember singers in the choir 56 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:30,160 when I was in Heidelberg there were sopranos from Toledo, Ohio. That's Ohiahi, 57 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:35,160 All right, go to Sandusky. So anyway, this um mom business. 58 00:04:35,759 --> 00:04:41,120 I was talking to my daughter last night, who was a great mom, 59 00:04:42,079 --> 00:04:45,279 who was over with Sophie, who's the mom of my other grandson. 60 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,720 And so you think about what does it take to be a mother? There's 61 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,120 no training. It's like getting married. There's no training for getting married, 62 00:04:54,199 --> 00:04:58,160 no training, but being a mother really you just have to kind of wing 63 00:04:58,199 --> 00:05:01,879 it. Hopefully you've been around in an environment that was good for you and 64 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:08,759 you had good values and understood good health and that sort of thing, and 65 00:05:09,759 --> 00:05:13,720 that maybe you know, you think about what the responsibility is of being a 66 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,639 mother. Wow, it's I think it's it's different. I wouldn't say it's 67 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,839 more important than being a father. But without the mother you can't have a 68 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:27,399 child. Well, without the father you can't either, right, Yeah, 69 00:05:27,519 --> 00:05:33,560 So I just think it's I'm happy that my children are in a great position, 70 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:40,040 great place. I'm thankful for that. And so with that, folks, 71 00:05:41,079 --> 00:05:45,879 let's see what can we find about. Here's something as I'm nosing around 72 00:05:45,879 --> 00:05:51,439 and always looking at things about children and things, well, to follow what 73 00:05:51,439 --> 00:05:58,160 we were talking about, here's something very strange. We go to New Jersey 74 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:03,439 for a couple of items. A missing school bus full of children was parked 75 00:06:03,439 --> 00:06:10,519 in a parking lot. The driver stopped and got out because this person had 76 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:15,279 a medical emergency. So this was late last week. The bus didn't get 77 00:06:15,319 --> 00:06:21,519 to school. Okay, there's your first clue. And so the bus driver 78 00:06:24,079 --> 00:06:29,560 was an eighty year old man who was disoriented. He experienced this whatever was 79 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,720 going on with him, Now, how many children? I guess I wouldn't 80 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:38,079 put this down. I'm at my age. We had we're gonna have a 81 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,560 school bus strike in my community last Monday, and the mayor said, you 82 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,480 want to drive a bus. I said, sure, if I have to, 83 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,720 I will be done that. Right exactly, I've been there and then 84 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:54,160 I've done that, but didn't have to get that far. But what happened 85 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,279 it was scary, It's sure for the children. Well yes, parents too. 86 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,839 Yeah, a medical emergency and radioed in to try to say something or 87 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,199 try to radio and to say something was wrong, but ended up having enough 88 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:10,160 wherewithal to get into a parking lot, but then had a minor accident with 89 00:07:10,199 --> 00:07:14,079 a flap at truck. There were some officers already on this scene that saw 90 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,800 what happened and the driver, the bus driver was still trying to maneuver the 91 00:07:17,839 --> 00:07:21,560 bus, but the officers were able to get onto the bus, get it 92 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:26,879 put into park, stopped, and everything handle what was going on with the 93 00:07:26,959 --> 00:07:30,879 driver. But this is the second story within what a couple weeks of a 94 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,600 bus driver experiencing a medical emergency, there was the one child who noticed the 95 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,480 bus driver was having an issue that by that bus driver did radio and that 96 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:44,120 something was wrong and he needed to pull over, and the student was able 97 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,800 to. I mean the bus driver passed out while the bus was still going 98 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,000 at a normal speed, so the child was able to get the bus pulled 99 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:55,759 over, stop and everything. Told his fellow students, somebody called nine on 100 00:07:55,759 --> 00:08:00,199 one, So what's going on that there's these emergencies that keep you know. 101 00:08:00,519 --> 00:08:05,680 I'm going to add a little color to this conversation I had. I told 102 00:08:05,839 --> 00:08:07,959 the mayor said to me, can I drive a bus so if I need 103 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,199 to? And I said, yeah, I'll be happy to help if I 104 00:08:11,279 --> 00:08:15,000 have to. But one of the things that's an issue here in the strike 105 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,040 that was proposed not only for this community where I am, but three or 106 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,879 four other communities. Drivers are ready to go on strike because the children on 107 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:28,680 the buses are so unruly, They are so ill mannered, they are so 108 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:33,879 out of control that the drivers don't feel that it's safe. Why these kids 109 00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:37,240 are running around in the bus without any supervision? What do parents teach? 110 00:08:37,279 --> 00:08:39,879 When I went to school on a school bus, I wrote a school bus 111 00:08:39,879 --> 00:08:46,480 every day, and frankly on buses that belonged to my second family, because 112 00:08:46,519 --> 00:08:52,200 their family started doing the buses and framing him back before there were buses, 113 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,399 when they were just barges, and the kids needed to go to school from 114 00:08:56,519 --> 00:09:00,799 a distance, so they hook up the horse team and they'd draw the team 115 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:05,279 to the various places around town. They had a slit in the wintertime and 116 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:09,440 a wagon in the good weather to bring children to the one room schoolhouse. 117 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:15,279 Now that's pretty impractical and not much value today. Well, it grew into 118 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,440 they had the buses, and I knew about school busing. And when they 119 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,639 were retired, they asked me, because their sun didn't want to do it, 120 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,440 if I wanted to do it, and I said, sure, I'll 121 00:09:22,799 --> 00:09:26,519 take a shot. I've been around in a long time, so I learned 122 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:30,320 a lot about it in the fourteen thirteen fourteen years that I did it, 123 00:09:30,919 --> 00:09:37,759 and one of them was to understand that it is extraordinarily unsafe to drive, 124 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,320 and the kids didn't seem to have them. Once in a while though, 125 00:09:41,399 --> 00:09:46,759 the kid who was smoking in the bus, or there'd be some unruly child 126 00:09:46,799 --> 00:09:50,720 in the bus, driver to stop and say, okay, you walk to 127 00:09:50,799 --> 00:09:52,360 school the rest of the way. You think you could get away with that 128 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:56,919 today, Oh, absolutely not No. But that was the way they fixed 129 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,559 the problem, and it worked. Guess what it worked. It was also 130 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,080 a lot safer for children to walk. Yeah, maybe have been yeah, 131 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,639 quite a long time ago. Yeah, But I think the point here that 132 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:13,399 I'm making is an overlooked part of the problem or these sorts of problems. 133 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,840 And in school it's the same way because there's no discipline. I know that 134 00:10:18,039 --> 00:10:22,159 they're constant medical emergencies. No, I'm not talking about medical emergency. I'm 135 00:10:22,159 --> 00:10:26,559 talking about the way why teachers don't want to We don't have good teachers in 136 00:10:26,639 --> 00:10:31,039 some circumstances. We don't have good school bus drivers. They don't we don't 137 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:35,120 have enough of them. We're seventeen drivers short in my community. They're paying 138 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:41,399 them thirty five dollars an hour, and they still don't want to put up 139 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,919 with a nuisance, the foolishness that goes on the bus. So what is 140 00:10:45,919 --> 00:10:50,440 it about having children that age or you know, from elementary school into high 141 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:56,279 school that these children feel entitled enough to be able to make the kind of 142 00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:00,279 trouble that they do on the bus. Fist fights all the time. They're 143 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:05,399 always taking knives away from some of these high school kids. It's what are 144 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:11,600 we What is there that I'm missing here about it? Is it liberalism? 145 00:11:11,799 --> 00:11:16,480 Is it the fact that there's no more discipline required. When there was discipline 146 00:11:16,519 --> 00:11:20,759 in school, we all probably were disciplined for any number of reasons, but 147 00:11:20,879 --> 00:11:24,679 now it's looked upon as being something that we ought to be able to do. 148 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,279 So in terms of absent parents too, whether or not they're absent in 149 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:33,840 the fact of pure neglect, or they are unable to be around because they're 150 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,919 working so many jobs to support their family, because they themselves are underpaid too. 151 00:11:39,399 --> 00:11:41,240 Well, there's a lot of it. But that's one of the reasons 152 00:11:41,279 --> 00:11:45,360 that there are these That you got an eighty year old guide driving the bus. 153 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:46,600 Not again that I have a problem with an eighty year old driving a 154 00:11:46,639 --> 00:11:52,080 bus, because I think there ought to be eighty year old pilots if you're 155 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:56,360 in physical condition that How would you like it if you get into a plane 156 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:01,799 and you looked at the looked into the cockpit and you saw a guy who 157 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,879 obviously was not a spring chicken. How would you feel about a lot of 158 00:12:05,919 --> 00:12:13,720 private jets or piloted by people that fit that description, Though certainly lots of 159 00:12:13,759 --> 00:12:18,799 food for thought. Guess what, boys and girls, Mercury is out of 160 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:24,879 retrograde. That means you can sign the deal, you can make the deal, 161 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:30,080 you can move ahead, and so that's a good thing. One of 162 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:35,080 the things going on in the sort of celebrity gossip department that is followed by 163 00:12:35,159 --> 00:12:41,360 social media folks from from here to there and everywhere. Taylor Swift can't even 164 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,559 does everybody know when she takes a shower and washes her hair. It seems 165 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:52,720 to me that somebody's watching Taylor Swift at every moment, and so there is 166 00:12:52,799 --> 00:12:58,600 a problem in that, or at least there seemed to be on social media. 167 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:03,879 Here, I'm looking at a viral hip of her second night and Philadelphia. 168 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,519 She's thirty three years old. Now, my god, I remember when 169 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,960 she was like, what seventeen been that? She's been around that long? 170 00:13:11,039 --> 00:13:16,159 Wow, he's zoie. Anyway, she was looking at she pointed to something 171 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,720 going on off stage and people in the audience who were wondering what's going on, 172 00:13:20,799 --> 00:13:24,000 and then apparently she said something like stop stop. Yes, yes, 173 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:28,440 she was performing Bad Blood and noticed that there was a situation in the audience 174 00:13:28,759 --> 00:13:33,639 pretty close to the stage and it was security. There were some girls who 175 00:13:33,639 --> 00:13:37,279 were having fun. They weren't causing a ruckust or anything. They were just 176 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,879 jumping around and dancing as most people who are in the pit, even with 177 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,279 seats at a Taylor Swift concert, would do. And the security guard just 178 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,679 seemed to, I don't know, started to get a little physical with them, 179 00:13:46,759 --> 00:13:50,279 and Taylor stopped it and the security guard was the one who ended up 180 00:13:50,279 --> 00:13:56,960 being escorted out. Wow, that's say something. So what would be the 181 00:13:56,039 --> 00:14:01,360 conditions Have you ever been to a Taylor Swift concert? Have you? And 182 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,279 so what was the demeanor of the audience when you were there? Were they 183 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:11,240 just excited because like her loud control loud. It's loud. It's a lot 184 00:14:11,279 --> 00:14:15,279 of squeals because there's people of every age. You have a lot of younger 185 00:14:15,399 --> 00:14:18,879 children who scream at the top of their lungs, you have older adults and 186 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:24,000 everything screaming the music, just screaming, screaming swinging in the music, but 187 00:14:24,039 --> 00:14:28,200 also just screaming in general. Was an old Els concerts and half fun, 188 00:14:30,039 --> 00:14:33,120 not something where a ruckus is caused. If I went to an old Elvis 189 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:37,120 concert or the Beatles in the sixties, there'd be lots of screaming. The 190 00:14:37,159 --> 00:14:41,080 girls would be screaming, the guys that, yeah, where you can't even 191 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,440 hear them singing really well, you couldn't then, And Yeah, I wonder 192 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:50,840 whether that was the same circumstance here with Taylor Swift as she she gets at 193 00:14:50,919 --> 00:15:03,000 everybody that excited that he Staylor swift right, I'm coming down now. I 194 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:07,480 will not give up me here forever, ever and ever and ever, fighting 195 00:15:07,799 --> 00:15:13,039 truth decay. All across the country and around the world. You hear the 196 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:18,600 program good Day Show dot com and on any number of hundreds of radio stations 197 00:15:18,639 --> 00:15:24,759 that have in many instances been here for decades listening to me and the various 198 00:15:24,759 --> 00:15:30,159 folks that have been on the ear with me. Most gratified to have Jay 199 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:37,120 with me. The award winning the Gracis are next Tuesday in Los Angeles, 200 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:41,559 and I will be there. Jay will be there. Maybe I should win 201 00:15:41,679 --> 00:15:45,279 Jay first, because she's really the winner of a clear award. We won 202 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,600 one last year, first time this program. Maybe I should have done this 203 00:15:48,679 --> 00:15:56,960 earlier, right first time the program, other than winning the longevity contest for 204 00:15:56,039 --> 00:16:02,519 being around longer than any other radio program AM that's syndicated. Now we have 205 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:07,159 these winners in the form of the ladies. So maybe as you just go 206 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,679 away and let the ladies run the program. Huh never, no, Jaiki, 207 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,600 you are our leader, yes, yea, I am. I don't 208 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:22,480 think the tachular leader anyway. I was interesting speaking of leadership that maim I 209 00:16:22,559 --> 00:16:29,240 never am not doing. Thank thank you her too. She has decided that 210 00:16:29,279 --> 00:16:34,600 she's not going to do any more Jeopardies while the Writer's Guild of America is 211 00:16:34,639 --> 00:16:40,159 on strike. So she says, I'm and I get there. There are 212 00:16:40,159 --> 00:16:44,159 a lot of actors, a lot of people involved in the business who have 213 00:16:44,279 --> 00:16:47,399 just said, nope, we're not going to cross the picket lines. The 214 00:16:47,519 --> 00:16:52,159 Hollywood writers are on strike, and so they've been on strike four in almost 215 00:16:52,159 --> 00:16:56,080 two weeks. I think now right, yes, yeah, they walked off 216 00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:02,320 the job May second, and Jeopardy only has about a week left of filming 217 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,440 for this season. So it's not like she's leaving them high and dry or 218 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:08,880 anything like that. Ken Jennings will just fill in the what does that say 219 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,599 about him? Jeopardy? Well, I think it's also different situations in the 220 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:18,960 sense Miambiolic doesn't only do Jeopardy. She also is a working actor that deals 221 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:25,000 a lot and works a lot with writers. They are her colleagues, and 222 00:17:25,519 --> 00:17:30,960 I think that to an extent, she feels like she maybe owes them or 223 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,240 not owes them, but she stands with them. And I think that we 224 00:17:34,279 --> 00:17:38,480 will see this from a lot of people who are actors specifically, rather than 225 00:17:38,559 --> 00:17:42,119 anybody who like Ken Jennings isn't He's not an actor. He was a game 226 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:48,440 show contestant and very intelligent, high writing, and then became host of Jeopardy 227 00:17:48,799 --> 00:17:52,720 not a very good Okay, yeah it's okay, but he's not out like 228 00:17:52,759 --> 00:18:00,559 by any stretch of whereas I think am miambiolic, myam is really sets an 229 00:18:00,599 --> 00:18:06,240 interesting tone to the program itself. Anyway, So the two sides apparently is 230 00:18:06,279 --> 00:18:10,799 still far apart on the strike because there are a lot of things that are 231 00:18:10,839 --> 00:18:15,400 being asked for. A lot of the nighttime shows have had the stars themselves 232 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:22,480 pay the writers that people on some of the daytime shows have also done the 233 00:18:22,519 --> 00:18:26,839 same thing so they could keep everything going. There's a question. I'm getting 234 00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:30,319 a kick out of this because I'm a big fan of The Blacklist. Of 235 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,359 all the shows that I watch, I like Law and Order, I like 236 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:37,559 the FBIS, I like the Chicago shows, but I used to like them 237 00:18:37,599 --> 00:18:41,559 more than I do now. And then there's a few other shows like The 238 00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:48,359 Blacklist and The Blue Bloods that are just well written. But of all the 239 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:53,799 shows, there is not one that I can remember there has been any better 240 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:59,200 written than The Blacklist and the stories that they've come up with and the twists 241 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:03,559 and turns and the lots, and they keep promoting, they keep saying it's 242 00:19:03,599 --> 00:19:07,160 the end, but they're not doing They haven't they haven't set a date. 243 00:19:07,519 --> 00:19:11,599 There are some people who say, because the writers strike, that they won't 244 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:15,519 end it until next fall. And so the people who are there is a 245 00:19:15,839 --> 00:19:19,480 there was a a gauge done of people who follow shows, you know, 246 00:19:19,519 --> 00:19:26,079 who are passionate about a radio show or a television show or something, you 247 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:30,680 know, the news channels, and so apparently the number one, the most 248 00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:37,799 loyal following on television is for The Blacklist, and it's because the Spader, 249 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,319 for one, and he always when he does public, he's on the Tonight 250 00:19:41,319 --> 00:19:45,240 Show a lot, and so he's always talking about how loyal the fans are 251 00:19:45,279 --> 00:19:48,519 and how they've kept this show going for ten years. But the writing is 252 00:19:48,559 --> 00:19:52,039 fabulous. So if they didn't, if the writers want on strike before they 253 00:19:52,119 --> 00:20:00,039 finished the last plot line, then there isn't gonna be an end. And 254 00:20:00,839 --> 00:20:03,400 we kind of knew that this was going to happen. A lot of the 255 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:07,119 productions knew this was going to happen. And so they started trying to get 256 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:11,599 as much filmed. Yeah, finish up as much as they could. And 257 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,720 that also is helpful in the sense of if you work over time, you 258 00:20:14,759 --> 00:20:17,200 get time and a half, so you get whatever your hourly wage is, 259 00:20:17,519 --> 00:20:21,039 yeah, plus fifty percent each hour, So you're making even more money to 260 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,000 help out for when you do go on strike and you're not getting any of 261 00:20:23,039 --> 00:20:26,319 those funds. So that was helpful. But we saw this with the previous 262 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:32,200 writer strike in the early aughts, where some shows didn't bounce back, they 263 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,640 were never able to come back. Yes, the writers strike. Yeah, 264 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:41,119 well, I think there's that as you've noticed the I think I've explained this 265 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,920 before on the air. How the television ratings work. There are three months 266 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:52,920 a year, February and November and May. So the end of the month 267 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,680 of May, the last Thursday, is the last day of ratings. And 268 00:20:55,799 --> 00:21:00,720 normally the television programs that are seasonal, that is that they start in the 269 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,160 fall and they go to the spring, will end up that last week. 270 00:21:03,559 --> 00:21:08,799 But as Jay just pointed out, you're noticing a lot of series finales this 271 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:14,240 week and last week because they knew this was going to happen, so they 272 00:21:14,279 --> 00:21:18,200 wrapped them up early and then the stuff that's replacing them, or all these 273 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,160 reality shows that don't really require writers per se. I mean, they have 274 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,519 some writing, but they're not they're not you know, they're not scripted, 275 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,279 and that's really is. Jay also pointed out really the reason that be Alec 276 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:37,799 and these others are staying away because they're they're just supportive of those who write 277 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:45,119 for situational comedies or for dramas of that kind of stuff. So at any 278 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,119 rate, you know, they've been it's kind of like tailing These shows have 279 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:52,240 been tailing off. Here. There was a good show on CBS that I 280 00:21:52,319 --> 00:21:56,240 used to watch on Sunday Night. Last night was the finale of a show 281 00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:00,480 called East East New York, which was only off for one season. I 282 00:22:00,519 --> 00:22:04,119 was surprised to get canceled, but because it was a good show, but 283 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:11,400 it was on against It used to be that CBS had magnum PI, but 284 00:22:11,519 --> 00:22:17,400 because they had a falling out over production costs, the CBS folks I think 285 00:22:17,799 --> 00:22:21,279 made a bit of a mistake, as it is demonstrated by the fact that 286 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:29,279 NBC put the show on Sunday night at nine o'clock Eastern, just before the 287 00:22:29,319 --> 00:22:34,119 Blacklist and so that show, Magnum kind of did away with the show they 288 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:38,240 had on CBS. So what has it turn about his fair play or whatever 289 00:22:38,279 --> 00:22:41,680 it is. But it's too bad because that show any of you who have 290 00:22:41,759 --> 00:22:45,599 watched him, it was well. The people in it, Jimmy Smits was 291 00:22:45,599 --> 00:22:49,519 in, with a lot of younger actors that were good, and a couple 292 00:22:49,559 --> 00:22:52,200 of other season Dad. It was just it was a good show. So 293 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:56,799 I'm sorry to see that go. Speaking of the writers' strike and shows, 294 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:03,640 the Tony Awards, we're supposed to be aired on June eleventh, but it 295 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:08,759 looks like they're kind of in limbo now if there was the Writers Guild asked 296 00:23:08,759 --> 00:23:14,880 for a waiver to the to writer so they could have writers that would put 297 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:19,240 the show together, and the Writers Guild said nope, So what are they 298 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,480 gonna do? Yes, they want negotiations to kick back up, and then 299 00:23:22,519 --> 00:23:29,519 it's happening, so they are Why why would they budge the ground? It's 300 00:23:29,559 --> 00:23:32,240 about yeah, man, as you're gonna stand your ground, you stand your 301 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:37,440 ground, and that's what the journey will happen in some way. They just 302 00:23:37,759 --> 00:23:41,799 will. They'll they'll happen. They just won't be televised. Ah, well, 303 00:23:42,079 --> 00:23:45,480 so it won't be like the big old award or anything like that. 304 00:23:45,559 --> 00:23:48,000 And again they even may just say, you know what, scrap it, 305 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:53,640 just send everybody their award. Well. Fortunately, your award show next week 306 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:59,680 doesn't require writers, so that'll be we don't have to worry about that. 307 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,160 But it'll be it'll be fun to see a lot of the celebrities. All 308 00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:08,440 women from television or radio are the ones who win these awards, so that'll 309 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:15,680 be fun. Here's a woman who went public. A This is a lady 310 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:22,319 who is a is a news anchor. Name is Lisa Guerrero. Have you 311 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:29,880 seen her story? This is a This is an ongoing thing with women on 312 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,359 television doing news and that sort of thing. As they get older, they 313 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:40,279 have less ability, it seems because most of the television stations and networks are 314 00:24:40,319 --> 00:24:48,240 run by men. So she has gone public. She said that she wanted 315 00:24:48,279 --> 00:24:53,200 to be public. Her name, by the way, Guerrero means warrior, 316 00:24:55,400 --> 00:25:00,279 and so she was having a hard time. She's she actually was an l 317 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,039 cheerleader for a while. She's been a sportscast. You must know who she 318 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,680 is, yes, yeah, well, and she was in the news recently 319 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,720 too. She was a sideline reporter for Monday Night Football as well, and 320 00:25:08,839 --> 00:25:14,400 yeah, talked about sexism and everything happening. But then also it said that 321 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,759 she was live on camera one time she was pregnant and she suffered a miscarriage 322 00:25:18,759 --> 00:25:22,480 and kept on going because she had a job to bro right, Yeah, 323 00:25:22,519 --> 00:25:30,039 exactly. So now she's been she it was a reporter of a Monday Night 324 00:25:30,079 --> 00:25:34,079 football. She talks about how the cat calls in the locker rooms took place, 325 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:40,680 having her ass grabbed, being open humiliated, Yeah, right, for 326 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,559 the size of her chast. Yeah. Yeah, she said that when she 327 00:25:44,599 --> 00:25:48,839 gets started doing this a while back, they called it slut shaming. It 328 00:25:49,039 --> 00:25:52,720 was a normal part of what she had to put up with in order for 329 00:25:52,799 --> 00:25:59,960 her to be taken seriously. And they didn't take her seriously at first because 330 00:26:00,079 --> 00:26:03,920 she had been a bikini model. Well yes, and that's what a lot 331 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,440 of women in the workplace used to deal with and they had to tolerate it, 332 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,119 and some unfortunately still do where they deal with this kind of atmosphere and 333 00:26:11,279 --> 00:26:15,240 environment and the second they say something then they become the problem. Right. 334 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:22,440 Yeah, So apparently she's been in what is FHM magazine? I don't know 335 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:29,720 what that is. Is that a sports magazine? H I think it's similar 336 00:26:29,799 --> 00:26:33,519 to maxim but I could Oh, is it totally wrong. She's fifty nine 337 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:41,519 years old and she has she's very, very good looking woman. But she 338 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:45,160 says, as she talked about aging on camera, I'm here to tell you 339 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,000 the hair is real, the boobs are not, which I thought was the 340 00:26:48,079 --> 00:26:52,400 highlight of the interview. So there it is respect for somebody who's good or 341 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:57,240 what they do, no matter what they're sex. I'm Greg I'm sixty eight 342 00:26:57,279 --> 00:27:02,440 years old, grow up in Cleveland, major in business administration. I do 343 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:07,119 motivational speaking in addition to substitute teaching. Part of the reasons for my motivational 344 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,359 speaking is um I kind of feel like I have a calling or giving back 345 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,440 to the younger generation. You know, the golden role is doing to others 346 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:17,359 you'd have them doing to you. My wife, Wanda, is a senior 347 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:21,279 flight attendance. She's been flying for over thirty years. We do laugh by 348 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:25,640 the bed. I think most adults will start realizing that they don't recall things 349 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:29,680 as quickly, say used to, or they don't remember things as vividly as 350 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:33,440 they once did. I've been taking priviging for about three years now. People 351 00:27:33,519 --> 00:27:37,119 say to me periodical, man, you got a memory like an alpha. 352 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:44,759 It's really really helped me tremendously, providing healthier brain, better life. Greg 353 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,000 Freely is a paid testimonialist and real privileging user. Based on the clinical study 354 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:52,000 of subgroups of individuals who were cognitively normal or mildly impaired, this product is 355 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,559 not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. So 356 00:27:56,640 --> 00:28:02,119 I'm exciting news from Twitter. On our handle on Twitter, by the way, 357 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:07,599 is good Day on Air. Elon Musk has announced that an unknown I 358 00:28:07,599 --> 00:28:11,480 have never heard of this woman before, but I suppose people who are inside 359 00:28:11,559 --> 00:28:19,319 know who Linda Yacarino is. He's very excited because she's the new CEO of 360 00:28:19,559 --> 00:28:25,839 Twitter. Now, normally not this kind of stuff would not make a general 361 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:30,400 reference on a general interest talk program, But because there's so much uhah about 362 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:36,599 Elon Musk and his billions and what they're being used for, he's decided to 363 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:40,920 share this, so I share it with you. She was the chairman of 364 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:48,319 Global Advertising at NBC, So okay, I guess that he's telling us something 365 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:55,839 by bringing an advertising management person in We're going to focus on advertising and making 366 00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:00,960 money on Twitter. That's really the way I would read this as far as 367 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,799 a business is concerned. He spent what forty meaning how much money did he 368 00:29:03,799 --> 00:29:07,160 spend to buy Twitter? About forty four million? Yes, And then he 369 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,440 put out a tweet and I want to say it was de summer sometime maybe 370 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,640 about hey, should I step down a CEO? What do you think? 371 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,079 I'm going to let the people talk and or vote have a choice, And 372 00:29:19,799 --> 00:29:23,640 the majority of Twitter users voted in the poll and said yeah, step down. 373 00:29:25,079 --> 00:29:26,000 So he was like, okay, fine, as soon as I find 374 00:29:26,079 --> 00:29:30,200 somebody worthy enough to take this role or no, he said something like somebody 375 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,559 stupid enough to take this role. I think that those were his wording, 376 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:37,079 and then he did finally, So he's stepping down. And she seems like 377 00:29:37,079 --> 00:29:41,880 a very brilliant woman. Yeah, she worked with Comcast and we see Universal 378 00:29:42,279 --> 00:29:48,200 was part of different acquisitions. So if Twitter is in the game of truly 379 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:52,440 making money, which seems they are, considering how much they are charging users 380 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,279 for this and that, and to even have Twitter be functionable, functional, 381 00:29:56,559 --> 00:30:02,640 functionable, I dicrash. She's quite Yes, I'm saying this, and I'm 382 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:07,319 not saying it because it's prejudicial as just fact. She started her career at 383 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,759 NBC as a page or an intern, I think, if I'm not mistaken, 384 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,680 I remember about it, and so she just stayed there and moved up 385 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:22,160 the ranks quickly. So this is somebody who's in her I'm gonna guess early 386 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:26,079 forties, mid forties. Maybe if she was an NBC for eleven years and 387 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:32,039 she started there as a college intern, you know what is Yeah, if 388 00:30:32,079 --> 00:30:36,880 she's even forty, so she must be a whiz at sales and understanding how 389 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,880 the sales game works, and that is a specialty. That is a talent. 390 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,599 There are a lot of people who are in the sales business getting in 391 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:52,720 terms of advertisement. Listen, the number one, the number one job career 392 00:30:53,640 --> 00:31:00,279 in the world is being a salesman. Think about it without salesman. Pretty 393 00:31:00,359 --> 00:31:03,920 much, salesman are involved in everything. Look around you. There's a salesman 394 00:31:04,599 --> 00:31:11,799 for the computer, but there's also a salesman for the computer parts, and 395 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:15,359 there's a salesman for the lightbulb, and there's a salesman for the paper, 396 00:31:15,839 --> 00:31:18,640 and there's a salesman for the tires that go on your car, and a 397 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:23,119 salesman for the spark plug that's in your car, and there's a salesman for 398 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:29,319 the seat, there's a salesman the tire was made, the material for which 399 00:31:29,359 --> 00:31:34,359 he's made, and yeah, it's all all. It's amazing. So understanding 400 00:31:34,519 --> 00:31:41,799 sales is a very important strategic sign. I think Elon Musk obviously understands that 401 00:31:42,599 --> 00:31:45,880 he's kind of a salesman himself, although he's because he's such a character. 402 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:51,880 I'm not sure that a lot of people take him as seriously ecentric for sure. 403 00:31:52,119 --> 00:31:56,400 Yeah. I also think with Linda Yacarino having worked her way up, 404 00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:00,440 a lot of people who start off on the lowest level possible, pretty much 405 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,319 as a page, and then work their way and the page program is nothing 406 00:32:02,359 --> 00:32:06,480 to joke around about. That is still very significant. But you work your 407 00:32:06,519 --> 00:32:09,039 way up, you remember that, you recall that, so you know every 408 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:15,359 level of the corporation. Yep. So it's great business time for Caldron. 409 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:19,039 I would think the phones would be ringing off the hook and people will be 410 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,519 ordering nauseum.

Time for our weekly visit from Tommy the Man, the money 423 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,880 Pit Man. There he is as opposed to the money Pit Woman, who's 424 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,519 Leslie Saigretti. All right, let's get to the heart of the matter here. 425 00:33:24,559 --> 00:33:28,519 Tommy is here to help you out from the Money Pit, which has 426 00:33:28,599 --> 00:33:32,720 a great broadcast every weekend.

All information, all the time, very practical, and we 429 00:33:42,799 --> 00:33:45,559 invite you, as listeners to this program to send in a question as well. 430 00:33:45,599 --> 00:33:52,039 Here's Jeremy wants to know if not cleaning a bathroom can cause a leak. 431 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,359 Huh, not getting the bathroom causes you this stink? I found this 432 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,720 amusing. He says that he had water leaking from a shower. It's a 433 00:34:00,079 --> 00:34:02,720 year old house, by the way, and the landlord is telling him the 434 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:07,480 ground deteriorated because he did not clean the bathroom and therefore he must pay for 435 00:34:07,519 --> 00:34:13,559 the damage. You mustn't hope it's possible. There you go another underestimate the 436 00:34:13,559 --> 00:34:19,639 ability of a landlord to try to weasel out of a basic repair maintenance responsibility. 437 00:34:19,679 --> 00:34:22,920 It's called yes, yeah, exactly. No, Jeremy, not cleaning 438 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:24,400 a bathroom is not going to cause a leak. And if the ground fell 439 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:29,039 out, then that's a repair that the landlord one year old house, that 440 00:34:29,119 --> 00:34:30,800 the graub falls out. I want to know how the rest of the house 441 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,960 is fairing it. I know the ground falls out of the year we Wow, 442 00:34:36,039 --> 00:34:38,039 I'd seriously consider not renewing that least, because this is not this is 443 00:34:38,079 --> 00:34:43,559 not beginning well for you, No, not at all all. Right, 444 00:34:43,639 --> 00:34:46,880 let's see here we are. You know, I'm involved in this development, 445 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:52,960 and so we spend time every week trying to focus on kitchens and whether he 446 00:34:52,119 --> 00:34:58,280 used Thermidor or a wolf for sub zero. You know, I'm learning a 447 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,639 lot about these sorts of things, right, and so I wonder maybe we 448 00:35:01,679 --> 00:35:06,880 should have you as a consultant so you can tell us what the most the 449 00:35:07,039 --> 00:35:09,760 many different is what it costs. What's the best for the money, because 450 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:15,039 those brands are expensive, and so you know, there's much a marketing question 451 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,960 though. I mean, you know, it's what you're I don't know what 452 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:22,119 your target customer is, but it's kind of what scale expensive. Yeah, 453 00:35:22,159 --> 00:35:25,440 well then you know then you are going to be looking at those lines that 454 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:29,199 you mentioned, right, Yeah, yeah, I know I thought, And 455 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,559 we also were looking at kitchen cabinets and stuff and the I know, you 456 00:35:32,599 --> 00:35:37,719 always are writing and there are always our podcasts about what to do, and 457 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,880 it's all about replacement. But what do you put in a house? You 458 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:45,400 know, do you have the ones that are made to put in or do 459 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:50,599 you build them in. And I'm sure those circumstances and probably others exist when 460 00:35:50,639 --> 00:35:53,079 you're you know, building house and putting it together, choosing what you want 461 00:35:53,159 --> 00:35:57,440 for amenities. You know, for the most part, if it's if it's 462 00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:01,800 new construction, there's really no need for custom fit cabinets because everything's modular today, 463 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,880 right. I mean, you can buy a cabinets that's eighteen inches, 464 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,960 twenty four inches, thirty six inches, thirty inches. You know, they 465 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:15,239 have cabinets that are stocked that fit every configuration of traditional kitchen, and of 466 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:20,039 course you have filler pieces, so you know they made what are they well 467 00:36:20,079 --> 00:36:23,000 made? Oh? Sure? Yeah? Absolutely? Yeah. You know, 468 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:27,119 you can buy kitchen cabinets for a little bit of money and are a whole 469 00:36:27,159 --> 00:36:30,360 lot of money. You know. I remodeled an apartment in a house that 470 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:35,559 we rent, and you know, it had a very whole old kitchen in 471 00:36:35,639 --> 00:36:37,599 it. So I tore the whole thing out and I put it in a 472 00:36:37,599 --> 00:36:39,679 new kitchen. But I use stock kitchen cabinets, and I gotta tell you 473 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:45,920 that I installed the entire kitchen for about oh maybe four thousand bucks all in. 474 00:36:46,199 --> 00:36:49,760 Yeah, I mean, so you know, you could do that if 475 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,079 you want. And it's it's standing up well, it's been in service for 476 00:36:52,119 --> 00:36:55,840 a year down and not wearing or falling apart in any way, shape or 477 00:36:55,840 --> 00:37:00,679 form. So what's the difference between that and spending thirty thousand bucks? About 478 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:06,000 twenty seven thousand is the best? All right? Ding ding ding ding ding 479 00:37:06,079 --> 00:37:09,039 ding catching All right, let me ask you something about that. Friends of 480 00:37:09,079 --> 00:37:15,320 mine are redoing their kitchen, their bathrooms with an eye to renting the house 481 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:20,159 out, that is, to making it an AIRB and B. I guess 482 00:37:20,159 --> 00:37:23,599 I've never really thought about this. This is a wonderful, well built older 483 00:37:23,639 --> 00:37:30,039 home. Old. I'm talking about an old classic New England house that's probably 484 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:34,760 three hundred almost three hundred years old. But they said they've looked done the 485 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:38,079 research and that people want to spend money to stay in a place like this 486 00:37:38,159 --> 00:37:43,239 for the experience because there aren't there any old homes around anymore when you're traveling. 487 00:37:43,679 --> 00:37:45,840 Let's go stay in an old house. What do you think of that? 488 00:37:45,159 --> 00:37:50,239 Yeah, you listen, it's like any house if you're gonna stay, 489 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,760 if you're gonna model a house like that and it's gonna be used in a 490 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:58,280 commercial way like that, you want to opt for more durable fixtures and faucets 491 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,480 and make sure that all the valves are working. And then I've had a 492 00:38:00,519 --> 00:38:02,880 league you could turn it off and all that sort of thing.
