The next Stephen Good Day download with Doug and Jay Kirshner is made possible in
part by Kellatrin, which is the safe way for you to lose weight and
keep it off, and also by priviging keeping your brain healthy. Jennifer Horne
and Doug Stephen against the world sort of, well, not really. I
think we have a lot of people to agree with us, even though we
don't always agree ourselves. We don't have to. But if we ran the
world, just think about it, because even the stuff we don't agree about,
we can agree about. Figured out how to do it, which is
something that they're having a hard time doing. As usual. I noticed the
Republicans have released a short term bill to avert the shutdown at the end of
the month, because the fiscal year is over at the end of September.
Federal calendar makes October one the first of the new spending year, and so
now they're trying to broker. Notice, well that last time I saw some
numbers over the weekend gen that suggested that if in fact this thing doesn't get
straightened out, it could cost the taxpayers three billion dollars in for example,
everybody gets paid after the fact, right it's just the stupidest thing. It
makes me insane. That's another thing. If we got in and actually ran
the government like business, yes, yeah, clean it up real fast.
But they just can't. They can't do it. They just want to spend.
They don't understand. And this is Democrats and Republicans. Yeah, everybody,
nobody, nobody deserves a pass in this department because everybody, they've none
of them have been great stewards of our money, none of them. All
right. So I was looking at the story. There's a new the Iceland
air folks have come up with. They've taken one of their planes and they've
converted it into use for private tours and trips. So the plane has fifty
seats in it, and they're all like, you know, it's the first
class, first class, first class, and they're going on chartered trips with
this thing. And there's a picture of one of the flights taken over the
weekend. It's all over social media. Matter of factor. Was on the
news a flight from Iceland to England and the passengers getting a look on both
sides of the plane. The pilot made a detour so that you could see
the northern lights. The plane actually went around in a circle so passengers on
both sides could see these. This is a fabulous look at it. If
you can see it, it's pretty amazing. The lights kind of a greenish
queue to them. Something I've always wanted to see. That's definitely from a
plane too. I mean, imagine it from a plane. Yeah, it's
fabuloso. So I think we will post that on our social media. All
right, So I'm looking at last week's the chart. We talked about this
on Fridays and airs in the talk radio Countdown show over the weekend. The
things that are different today and perhaps they were, and the things that are
still the same from the last Friday to today. And the thing that I
want to know, frankly, where we are on of all of the Biden
stuff and the Trump stuff, and yeah, they out of the same things
we talk about. But the United Auto Workers and their strike and some of
the threats and how many people are being affected by this. They just shut
down one plant for each of the manufacturers. But if what the leadership the
labor unions UAW United Auto Workers have said, if you don't get this straightened
out, we're gonna make everybody put everybody else on strike everybody. So the
car manufacturers don't want that because they you know, they mean they put all
of the car tracts together at the same time. The unions smarter than they
the companies because everybody's contract for all the manufacturers comes up at the same time.
Now and so we're just coming out of the COVID problem of having enough
supply to meet the demand. And so there's a depending on the brand of
car, there's from thirty to ninety days on the lots most of the major
car dealers in the country, and that is this is for the first time
since the twenty twenty So here we have things. But you all know,
you try to buy a new car during the COVID thing, what you paid
five thousand Overstacker, ten thousand Overstaker, depending on what the model was.
And so if this thing, these people they've they know, what's what their
beef is the same, Jennifer as the people that are on strike in the
Los Angeles. Yeah, it's the same concern AI and we're you gonna do
to protect our jobs and the owners say nothing, We're not gonna protect your
jobs. It's really it's unfore like for me just being in Los Angeles.
I feel like everybody's on strike because not only do we have the writers and
the actors, one thing that doesn't get a lot of attention, and it
will as things get closer to like the Olympics and stuff coming into LA.
But hopefully they'll get it settled by them. But they've got a bunch of
hotel workers on strike. And these are hotel workers at some of the most
luxury brands that you can think of in Los Angeles. Now, those people
are still letting are in this process where they strike like and I'll use the
air quotes, so you know, like surprise, a surprise strike during the
week. They'll actually let everybody know. But they're doing it once a week,
once a week or once a month, and then they go back to
work as part of their negotiation. But these are workers in some major hotels
in Los Angeles. Now you have the auto workers on strike. I mean,
it seems like everybody is really freaking out a little bit about AI.
But I was. I was talking to a friend of mine. I don't
know if I shared this with you. Who's in the Director's Producers Union I
think, and maybe it's Director's Union. He said that they're they're negotiators were
just much more I guess, smart and aware of what to do with AI
rather than the writers and the actors, and that a lot of this is
having to do with how their unions are approaching this rather than even the issue
with the studios. We all know the studios are are greedy and they're just
trying to put people out of their homes and let them wait this out until
they make the conversation, until they're desperate enough to make a deal. But
from his perspective, he actually thinks that the writers and the actors were failed
by their own union, not really going into this when they should have died.
Yeah, they don't have leadership. Yep. So all right, I'm
doing a little traveling as you're talking. The Northern Lights thing brought me around
is something that's going on once again. Here we are in California and off
the southern California coast. There are tours being conducted as we speak, well
not at this hour of the day there, but there's a flourishing algae situation.
You know. All the people say, oh, they Algy's dying because
of global warming. That's such crap. Here's a place excuse me, fallow,
pardon my my flourishing time in front of all the ragweed yesterday was just
causing my voyage to be compromise, shall we say. Anyway, the onlooker
is their boats, the cruises that are going out to see this phenomena out
in the inu I think long beaches where most of them are going out of.
Frankly, here's a scientist who say, this is the most magical thing
I've ever seen. The beautiful the where the water is clear. You can
see these algae that are blooming and filling the well. Look at them.
Look at it like a dusk. Have you seen it? Yeah, if
you go off the PC you can see it. There are some people that
are you know, you see pictures of people that are underwater card Yeah,
as sitting on the beach that are taking pictures of this stuff. This is
something that really does fly in the face of all the people who are saying,
I mean, there's not sure we have marine problems, that there are
a lot of little those little seahorses and things that are suffering, getting sick
or dying because of the change. An algae, by the way, can
be toxic as well. Maybe beautiful but it didn't necessarily mean that it's great
for the environment. Under the water, it chokes out a lot of other
stuff, and it does have an effect on animals. I remember when they
used to clean out the Sudbury River my neck of the woods, and they
bring the stuff that came out of the river in trucks to my compost pile,
and it made great fertilizers. It's really very it's very pointed, full
of all kinds of rich things, but also it can be unfriendly to some
of the stuff that many of the environmentalists are all worked up about. So
all right, law as we're in California, Jennifer is an expert when it
comes to wine, and a lot of people are wine drinkers, and they
like to know. They appreciate when Jennifer goes off and talks about some of
the wines. As a she and her father are both the how do you
actually? I always teach you because I okay. So I'm looking at an
overview of the Temecula Valley, which apparently is home to some of the most
beautiful wines. I think we were talking about Napa a week or so ago,
and now Sonoma is in focus and this is just something that's standing out.
I don't have, you know, I don't not a wine drinker.
I don't have like some magazine that comes to me. I just look around
as I'm scouring all of the various sources that I use farming. So this
is why I think it would be something which I got it from a farming
magazine. Yeah, I think that would like to go wine tasting because it
is not just about going and getting drunk. It is. I mean,
at least when when I go, it's about learning. You talk to the
winemakers, see what they're doing. You're looking at what was that, and
then getting drunk and then getting drunk. No, but it really is about
seeing how like you can have a wine that is made with the same grapes
literally across the street from one another, and it's different because of the of
the soil and the and the terror difference in the taste. Yeah. So
it's really I find it really fascinating and I think it's interesting to see different
methods and stuff. But Temecula is actually in near San Diego. Their wines
are up and coming. Some of them are are good, others are still
pretty young, and you know, not as beautiful as you might get up
north, but if you come to Temecula to visit the amount of money that
people have put into this area as an investment, the wineries are stunning.
They are absolutely beautiful and breathtaking. So it's really gorgeous now, just in
you know, an honest all transparency. I think that some of the wines
still need a little time, but it's still really fun for like a well
but yeah, I mean that's it. The people who go on on these
wine tours, they get on horses and they go into these trails and they
go to some of these hot, very expensive places to get a massage the
horses. It's like it's a wonderful way to spend a day or two.
I'm going to Nappa for a Thanksgiving and I don't know anything about it.
I'll have to make you a little list of things you'd enjoy up there.
Okay, Yeah, the kids are going up. Sophie's folks have a place
in Napa, so they're going for Thanksgiving. They invited me to come up,
so I said, I'll come, you know, for a day or
so and as long as I can, you know, stand to be in
one place and take advantage of what there is there as you my friend Greg
has used to have. They they converted a winery in this area to a
growth facility, and apparently there's quite a bit of that going on of that
up there too. Yeah, you can learn for work, right, yes,
right, anything else, Okay, we'll do some crazy traveling. A
Navy veteran's jaw was torn off over the weekend after being attacked by a bear.
The whole bottom part of his mouth is gone, attacked by a grizzly
bear while he was hunting in Montana. So the individual is they're going to
rebuild his imagine getting that close to him. That's did you see the guy
who was bitten by the shark who just came out last week and literally was
a shark bite from his eyeball down to his chin. Crazy the sharks and
the and the bears, and now they're twenty rattlesnakes. Somebody was some guy
opened up a garage in Arizona and there were twenty rattlesnakes, including a pregnant
one. Good night nurse, all right, yeah, right, good night.
There is somebody who had the audacity to use the good day logo on
a program actually Fox used it too for a while, until my lawyer sent
them a note suggesting that I owned the term good day show, good day
radio, good day, this, good day that, and that if you
would mind your own p's and queues, that'd be great. Thank you very
much. How that work? Well, it worked and it didn't work.
I was, I was, and it didn't work. Well, there's a
good st yeah, right exactly. Jennifer Horne is here, jays often this
hour of good Day. We're all very happy to be here with you.
It's so nice to be with you. Remember that song everything you say indom
you don't remember that song? No I forgot really okay, Well, I
want everybody I have. This is my mantra for the world. Find a
job that you can be happy to go to every day. Be happy with
your job. It sounds like started in mid days, yeah, instead of
like we do in the morning. For love that starts at noon. Yeah.
Well, I've been around cows all my life and getting up at four
o'clock, so there's never been a big deal. I think that's why.
One of the reasons that I got I started on during mornings even when I
was back in colleges, because I was up, and so, you know,
you kind of start that it was easy for me to go do stuff
at that hour of the day. I always had classes in the morning and
then I could go work on There was a bull farm in Tiffan, Ohio
where I went to school. That leads us over all time college. I
actually this is a we've known each other for a long time. Okay,
So when you went to college, you still worked on a farm. Yep,
I did. I was. I worked on the farm. I worked
in the radio station. I've done since I was in college. I've done
the same things until today, working on a radio that I thought, because
you know, I knew that you were around the farm growing up, I
did not know that you actually sought one out when you went to college.
It was a very famous bull farm in Tiffan, Ohio, and it was
very interesting. I was in charge of shoveling maneure still somewhere. Okay,
So what did you What did you earn for working on that farm? Can?
I think it was two dollars an hour or something like that. Yeah,
it's a big money. The first radio eighteen forty seven, I mean
that's pretty yeah, thank you, that's right. Undone down. The first
radio job I had paid me a dollar eighty five an hour. I do
remember that, but I think working on the in the farm it was two
bucks an hour. All right, let's see what we can find out here
again. Sort of the theme here is for you to be important. It's
more important to be happy with your job, because sometimes it's often less important
than how you do it. If you're happy, doesn't that help you define
yourself? Think about that for a second. Looking at our job, many
people identify themselves, you know, they give you a card here, this
is who I am. No, it's not. It's what you do.
It's not who you are. But if you're holding a job that you like,
it can help you be a better person, feel better. Which comes
first being a better person than doing a better job, or doing a better
job and becoming a better person. Well, I think it's if it's also
something that you're proud of that helps your identity to right. Yeah, exactly,
Okay, So I've been looking forward to this for at least twenty four
hours. The overview of the great Lauren Boubert, and she is I always
thought she was a classless piece of trash. Now I know she is.
Well, no, I'm not making excuses for her. Can you just let
me finish for sec? I'm not sure I try it though, Go ahead.
I'm not saying that she's doing worse than other people in her age,
in her situation because she's, as she said, she's gone through divorce,
she's dating, blah blah blah. You know. Okay, fine, so
you gotta let the guy your breast and you reach over and take finish.
You're gonna like the next part, okay, because I understand that she's in
a position that a lot of thirty seven year old women are in. Maybe
they have have won too many cocktails and they might do something that they're not
proud of. That being said, when you know that the world hates you
for your political views, and they do, I mean, oh no,
you absolutely. You could hear in your voice you're joyful that she was caught
on I'm all right. I think she and AOC, but there were a
lot of people, and AOC is another one that would be joyful in the
fact that if they caught them doing something, they're going to exploit it.
So you have to outsmart those people. And if you're gonna do stupid things.
You better be sure that no one's got a camera going, and you
better be sure not to make a jerk out of yourself, because you're gonna
get caught every single time. Whether you're AOC or you're Lauren Bobert, if
you're doing something like that, somebody's going to be targeting you because they're not
afraid to be loud. They paint a target on themselves. Well yeah,
right, so you have done a masterful job as I knew you would at
sort of smoothing this over. Well, and it is, it's it's not.
It's not that I'm a Lauren Bobert fan, because I'm not. Really.
I can't tell you that I have like any like oh my god,
I have to protect her. But I just look at this from like an
honest perspective. I don't think she was I'm sure people have had bad nights.
I know that she said she felt that she fell short of her values.
Yeah, but you know what she's been falling short of her values.
It sounds like, I mean, she's she's dating a guy who's owning drag
bars and she comes out and here's another thing. Can I make a comment
about this? Please? We're here to make comments because there are a lot
of people who are conservative who are clutching their pearls about the drag queens,
and there's a bunch of people on the other side of the aisle who are
clutching their pearls saying, oh, these drag queens are like saints. No.
I think it is perfectly fair to say that anyone who is dressed in
a sexualized manner should not be reading three year old story time books and a
libraries. Whether you're a drag queen or a stripper, anybody who is dressed
in a sexualized manner, I think it just makes sense should probably not be
be reading to young children. That being said, you want to be go
to like a drag brunch or something. I'm with you, Yay, fun,
great, go have fun. But you're over eighteen or you're over twenty
one, and you're not reading to a four year old. I don't know
how we can't. It seems like, I don't know, but it drives
me nuts because when some conservatives talk, they just want to like ace drag
queens off the planet. And then when the other side of the al talks,
it's like everybody needs to be a drag queen or you're a hateful jerk.
I don't understand how we can't just look at what's appropriate for the situation.
And Lauren Bober was guilty of it. She runs off the mouth of
the same kind of stuff, and so when she's dating a guy who runs
drag bar, she looks like an idiot. Thank you, an end of
store out. I just don't know why we can't just exercise comments. Okay,
calm down right, I'm more interested in the business that what caught my
attention wasn't so much that she was fondling this guy's junk. That should have
caught your attention. That was something she did catch my attention, but it
was the fact she was vaping in the theater. Unless she was drunk.
Well, I'm sure that there were cocktails involved just by looking at the footage
a few times as I have, Yeah, I think something was going on.
So but as a public you know, one of the things that happens
as if you were a public servant is you're under greater scrutiny. So if
you can't that's part of the job. Not just a public servant, but
one who has a really loud and big opinion. She and Maryland Green and
mary what's her name? It is Maryland, right, it's your girlfriend she's
since right, yeah, Marjorie and AOC and that other woman who And it
sounds like we're I'm a sexist here because they have no problem with him.
No, Matt Gates would be another one. You're not a sexist. Matt
Gates is another one. George what's his face? To say? What's his
name? With a guy from New York? Oh, George Santos. Well
at a shift. These would be people who are allowed, yeah, and
he would know that they are targets. Yea. Not only they allowed,
but they're all. Maybe they're allowed because they're jerks. Are their jerks because
they're allowed. I'm not sure which it is, but anyway, I just
I find all of this stuff. These people who are allowed, they get
caught and then they find marriage. If you're doesn't you have children, Bobert?
Didn't you have children? Yeah? Oh yeah, one just I think
older children. I think it is also going to be like a dad or
something like that. She's only thirty seven, though she started young, Doug,
apparently she did. I think so that tells you that you well,
you also have to remember. I mean that's not necessarily fair because different areas
of the country, you know, more things are normal. Well, and
she didn't do her step proud. Yeah, we've all had our Listen,
my life hasn't been completely without embarrassment, and nobody's has been completely without I
don't know. Maybe you probably have never been embarrassed because you've got I'm embarrassed
every day and I dwell on it. What are you talking about my shame?
Bowe takes them a whole back. No, but see, you shouldn't
be because you're as close to a perfect human being as I think. I
know you're sweet, Well, I think that that's you are. You're one
of the most wonderful people. You are every bit as good as you sound
on the air. You're helpful, you're kind, you're sweet. People love
you, and this something to be said for that. We can't all be
nice, so otherwise wouldn't appreciate people like you? When he gets down to
the breast, Hey, well I say it because I love you and you
know that I mean it, so it's there. But anyway, and I
also mean what I was about. Laren Bobard, excuse me, I can't
tell you that I didn't chuckle. I was on a tractor yesterday and I
was thinking of all of the things that you and I could say about I
was actually right. I was once in my life. I was actually rehearsing.
You were writing material. I was coming up with things like a stroke
of genius on her pig. You're like working for the local newspaper, stuff
with using the term junk. Let's see what else did I do? Did
you watch the whole thing? It was? I did? Oh? Yeah,
of course. Yeah. Very spicy and she's a very pretty girl.
I think a lot of people, maybe whether they liked her before politically,
might be paying more attention to her. Well. I couldn't believe how the
guy was groping her and how obvious he was about Its weird, wasn't it?
It was just yea, it was fair? And how did she meet
this would have attracted him? He's a bar owner in Aspen, so I
guess you know, m M, yep, she's writing in circles. She
from Aspen? Is that? No? She's from like she's actually my grandparents,
the ones that just passed away. She's in their district. It's grand
Junction. It's a bunch of smaller towns in Colorado, Western Colorado. So
how did she get started? What did you do? What did she do
for politics before she became the only thing that I know about her history is
what my It was very funny because I'll remember this clear as day. My
grandfather's wife, who I referred to as my bonus grandma. She was sitting
there and she knows that I was into politics. She goes, You're gonna
have to watch this one. She said. She owns a bar, she
carries a gun, and she's she's really making waves in politics here and here
she is. I'm I'm sixty eight years old, grew up in Cleveland,
Ohio, major in business administration. I do motivational speaking in addition to substitute
teaching. Part of the reasons for my motivational speaking is I kind of feel
like I have a calling or giving back to the un generation. You know,
the golden role is doing to others you'd have them doing to you.
My wife, Wanda, as a senior flight attendance. She's been flying for
over thirty years. We do laugh quite a bit. I think most adults
will start realizing that they don't recall things as quickly a say used to,
or they don't remember things as vividly as they once did. I've been taking
Priviging for about three years now. People say to me periodical, Man,
you got a memory like an alpha. It's really really helped me tremendously,
providing healthier brain, better life. Greg Freeley is a paid testimonialist and real
Privigent user. Based on the clinical study of subgroups of individuals who were cognitively
normal or mildly impaired. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat,
cure, or prevent any disease. Yeah, Okay, when I come back
on laughing, especially when Jennifer is here, you know that there's something lude.
Jennifer has said something that was lude, crude and uncouth. You're right
and so and you can imagine that with all this conversation about Lauren Boubert,
how easy it is to do any and all of that. So I wish
I could claim it was original material, but just search around on social media.
Yeah, well, that was what I was practicing on the tractor yesterday.
How I was going to approach this with you if you will, All
right, let's get to some of the things going on in social media beside
Lauren Boubert, you can connect to us. It was just say, here's
the rob she got kicked out of the theater. Yeah, see I knew.
And that was by I said something along the lines of, come on
this, we get lost on this. Here's the latest from TikTok social media
trending. The TikTok trending focus is how often men think about the Roman Empire.
This is kind of like a Lower and Bobert moment. Yeah, so
I kind of saw this, did you? Yeah, the virtual question.
A lot of people are asking their boyfriends, their husbands, their fathers.
A new trend that's taking over TikTok abound. So what'd you think? I
don't know. I don't know what it means, like to distock themselves from
like other things. Or it began after an Instagram user somebody online known as
gay as Flavius shared some reels of video ladies. Many of you do not
realize how often men think about the Roman Empire. So now there have been
all that this This is one simple little thing, and this is what happens
with social media. People on television talking about it, people at parties are
talking about it. Yes, I want to know what you think about the
Roman Empire? What about the soldiers and what they wore? Apparently, you
know football was this weekend? Week number two? Your favorite And one of
the guys that I just love, Rob Gronkowski used to play with Tom Brady
on the Patriots and then went to Florida and then he now he's retired.
He's a commentator now. And I happen to see a little bit of the
game and they show him up in the blimp and he's just such a lovable
goofball and so apparently they asked him. I just looked this up. When
do you think of the Roman Empire during football yesterday? He said, only
when I watched the movie Gladiator, so once every three years. Yeah,
there you go. Anyway, I had no idea this existed until I came
across this. One expert explanation for why men think about the Roman Empire is
that the era has been historically over emphasized in Western societies. However, there
is not true consensus as to why men think about the Roman Empire so frequently.
I must what's the matter with me? I never I don't think about
the Roman an Empire at all, And even I didn't even know this was
a social media thing until Jay sent me this bit of information. I'm looking
at him, staying to myself, huh, you've got nothing better to do.
What in the world is going on with people in their minds? I
don't know, but this is like really made everything. The New York Times,
Oh yeah, there's a Washington Post thing obsessed with the Roman Empire.
Women discussed this girl version of male obsession with the Roman Empire. Oh yeah,
yeah, bring me more, Lauren Bobert. Okay, there's something that
we posted at all of our on all of our social media at good Day
Networks about bud Leitch and how they're losing shelf space in major retails because of
all of this hoop law about the drag queen that was. Was she a
dragon? Went? No, she was, She's a transgender persona right,
all right? So anyway, I was looking at some of the comments about
how people now are upset because in this particular person's point of view, yet
men and women working for the distributor losing money, their families are suffering,
their business suffering because of this, and I think that's something to think about.
Frankly, with regard to that, so it's great business time for Caldron.
I would think the phones would be ringing off the hook and people will
be ordering nauseum. That's right. You know, it'll be twenty five years

of the extraordinarily famous, the worldwide phenom that's called the money Pit, which
is a weekend radio point. But not only that, it's a whole enterprise
of all kinds of things that'll help you around your home. There is that
podcast that's been around. First one was done in nineteen thirty four, I
believe Tom, and they've been aroundstance then. And then there's the money Pit
newsletter. But first let's get to some questions from our audience here on Good
Day, Tim Listeners says he's got yellow jackets this time of year on the
farm around the ice cream. Somebody was complaining yesterday because the yellow jackets.
They had this mother and father and their son on the farm, and there's
the bees are happens every year at this time. That's not this guy's problem.
He's got them going under his siding at the house. So does that
mean that there's a nest under there some place? Yeah? Absolutely, what
I that's pretty common, especially you know as we get towards late summer.
There's a couple of things that I do in situations like this, Doug.
First of all, I try to find the main access points you usually find,
you know, the part where they're going into the siding, and I
will try to I will mount a sticky trap near there. Now there's a
type of Trap Rescue as a manufacturer of different types of of d i y
traps. They have something called a trap stick, which is kind of like
this. It looks a little bit like a pineapple, but it's a cone
that's covered by a plastic grid. And I love these things because I'll hang
them, and I'll do it very carefully when the it's early in the morning
or late at night, right near the ends of the nest. I'll just
hang it there and let it go to work. And the funny thing is
about this thing. It's got a whole column. It's about maybe two and
a half inches in diameter, maybe ten inches tall, and I look at
it as a parking lot. I can tell you that after two or three
days is hardly a parking spot left. So it depletes the number of wash
you have to deal with or bees you have to deal with there. And
then once that's dumb, I will try to get in there and use a
powdered insecticide and squirt it into the hole where they're where they're coming in out
because the powdered in secticides, the insects will get it on their on their
bodies and take it back to the nest and then it helps to eliminate the
entire nest. So it's kind of a two step process. It's you know,
it's not for the faint of heart and if it's something murderer, you
know. I mean, it's just you know, you have to go there
when when they're not active, and you have to be smart about it.
I mean, you can also use one of these sprays that has like a
twelve foot spray on it, you know. But the thing is it doesn't
take out the nest and they'll just rebuild it eventually, right, yeah,
exactly, all right, So you got to point there, Tim. The
Money Pit podcast has a focus on buying a four closed home. Why would
that be any different than buying any other kind of home. It's actually quite
different, especially in terms of determining the condition of the home, because typically
utilities are off and banks are limiting access to the foreclosed home, and so
you have to be very very careful about making sure you understand, you know,
what the condition of that home is. So, for example, I
will always suggest to my potential buyers if I was a home inspector or one
of his own inspector, that those utilities turned on, because you don't know
what the condition is of the heating system, the cooling system, the plumbing
system, the ectrical system. Is a lot that you don't know about that,
and it's also a little risky in terms of who's managing that property.
I'll tell you a story. You know, some years ago, I had
an inspection that I had done, and we did the house inspection. The
utilities were off. I told him they absolutely had to have them on for
a reinspection before closing. They waited and absolutely and ultimately did not put them
on, but they wanted me to come back and look at the house again.
Anyway, They're one that takes some risk, but not a lot.
I went back at day or two before closing. The pipes have frozen.
There was four feet of water in the bottom of the little house. The
drywall was swollen and coming off the walls. It was a disaster. So
you know, there's a lot of risk associated with foreclosures. Yeah, all
right, So there's the latest from the money Pit podcasts that you can find
a moneypit dot com Forward Slash Podcast. As far as the newsletter is concerned,
there's always tons of things that are especially helpful, silly little things like
paint precious and how do you keep them clean? I like to find as
much. I still go out of my way to find paint that is not
water based paint. Yeah, getting harder and harder yet, But I will
say I'm finding that some of the Latex paints are getting better. So,
for example, I used the floor paint that was called a stare and porch
paint or something like that Benjamin Moore makes, And I'll tell you what,
that's the paint that I would never ever buy Latex for it, because I
think that the floor paints just need to be super durable, right, because
I'm a lot wear and tear well using up staircase in my house and I'm
really happy with it. It's been like six months now and it's showing nose
scratching or anything. Really, Yeah, you gotta do. You gotta get
special porch and floor paint to do stairs. I just I learned that.
I didn't learn it. I had my guys doing fixing up some places in
the barn. The walk up sand him well clean him well and paint him
with that real heavy stuff. All right, All these bits and pieces of
