1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,400 The next Stefan Good Day download with Doug and Jay Kirshner is made possible in 2 00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:08,080 part by Caldron, which is the safe way for you to lose weight and 3 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:12,960 keep it off, and also by Previlegent keeping your brain healthy. All right, 4 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:19,879 So every year the folks at Billboard Magazine, which has always been kind 5 00:00:19,879 --> 00:00:24,399 of the Bible, there have been a few over the years since I remember 6 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,120 back to the sixties when I was playing music as a disc jockey, there 7 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:34,679 were several different record rating services, but Billboard always seemed to be the one 8 00:00:34,679 --> 00:00:38,399 that most people paid attention to. I guess it depended on as much as 9 00:00:38,439 --> 00:00:43,280 anything else, it depended on what your format was. But when it came 10 00:00:43,359 --> 00:00:52,000 to visiting the Christmas music scene, Billboard had it then and has it now 11 00:00:52,359 --> 00:00:55,880 as far as we're all of the songs, and I think James, I 12 00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:00,920 sent you a list of what traditionally had been the most popular songs at Christmas 13 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:06,640 time, and we've been using them different versions. I think I said yesterday, 14 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,319 there's not a year that goes by when there isn't a new album that 15 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:19,159 features a traditional list of Christmas tunes that gets a lot of airplay. I've 16 00:01:19,159 --> 00:01:23,200 listened to. I was listening to the station in Boston that plays the Christmas 17 00:01:23,239 --> 00:01:26,159 music. Most of the time, what they're playing is really good, but 18 00:01:26,359 --> 00:01:33,200 there are days when there I guess this happens no matter what format you listen 19 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:37,239 to. For some reason or another, it just they don't hit the mark, 20 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:42,079 and this is one of those. This is one of those years for 21 00:01:42,159 --> 00:01:48,480 that station. Anyway. So the list of top twenty five Christmas songs, 22 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,879 the most played Christmas songs on US radio stations. The number one song after 23 00:01:55,120 --> 00:02:01,560 sixty five years. This song came out sixty five years ago. Brenda Lee 24 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:07,319 and Rocking Around the Christmas Tree rated number one. Some of the reason not 25 00:02:07,359 --> 00:02:09,919 bringing this up in a manner of speaking, I think last year was not 26 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:15,360 King Cole a Christmas song. It varies because it's these traditional songs and the 27 00:02:15,479 --> 00:02:22,680 traditional artists that go with them that pretty much make up the list every year. 28 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,879 Sometimes there's some new versions of various songs, but for the most part, 29 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:35,159 Mariah Carey is well. Mariah Carey this year is number eleven. Interestingly 30 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:40,960 enough, that's there there has been in the lad there's been a burnout on 31 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,039 it, as there is I think on most of the other songs, right, 32 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,879 play them too much and they get cooked. Like one year was Sleigh 33 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,039 Ride I remember, which I think is one of the best. And then 34 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,919 there's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, and you know you'll hear them 35 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,599 all. The Christmas song, as I said, last year, I think 36 00:03:00,759 --> 00:03:07,960 was number one. So this year it's burh Lives Holly Jolly Christmas. That's 37 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:12,120 too. Bobby Helms is three, jingle Ball Rock. Number four is the 38 00:03:12,199 --> 00:03:15,879 Christmas song John Lennon. I think this first time has been in the top 39 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,879 five. How long has it been this forty years ago? How long has 40 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,960 Lennon been dead? He was shot in nineteen eighty, right, so he've 41 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:29,960 been dead for twenty forty three years and this came out. I think the 42 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,840 song that he did that has gained so much traction came out I think the 43 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,960 year before he was dead. Then this. Of course, Andy Williams, 44 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,680 we were talking about that song yesterday, being cries. The traditional tunes are 45 00:03:42,719 --> 00:03:46,120 the ones that do the best anyway, so I thought you would be interested 46 00:03:46,479 --> 00:03:50,840 in that, and if you weren't, you just took an extra five minutes 47 00:03:50,879 --> 00:03:55,800 to get Andy finally making number one with hers. I wonder how much social 48 00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,719 media comes into play, because there's been a lot has been trending because people 49 00:04:00,719 --> 00:04:03,680 are constantly reminded year after year, and it seemed more so this year that 50 00:04:03,719 --> 00:04:09,240 she was only thirteen when she recorded that, right, yeah, and you 51 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:14,680 have a new generation that's really just realizing that's right. Yeah, yeah, 52 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,279 and it was really sweet. Mariah Carey sent Brenda Lee Flowers to celebrate her 53 00:04:17,319 --> 00:04:23,160 Christmas song finally hitting number one. Nice, okay, that's cool. Yeah. 54 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,040 Yeah. December the twelfth, the third of the way through the month 55 00:04:27,079 --> 00:04:34,920 of December, we got about about thirteen days, nearly eleventh's it's it's twelve 56 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:41,079 days until the action really gets started. Because Christmas Eve for some people is 57 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:46,160 more Christmas Eve than Christmas Day. People open the presence and they do their 58 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,639 things, and most people aim to get their Christmas things, whatever they may 59 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:57,000 be, including giving money away. There are a lot of people And I 60 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,720 was looking at a story yesterday. One of the radio stages that carries this 61 00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:05,399 pro raised like two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. In fact, they invited 62 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,759 me and now I didn't do it this year, but I'll do it next 63 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:14,000 year. They come up and they spend a whole day on Saturday, like 64 00:05:14,079 --> 00:05:17,240 eight or nine hours on the air. These couple of guys that I know 65 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:23,240 that are on the station, and they raised for the community a lot of 66 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:28,079 money because people are giving. They really are open to that sort of thing 67 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,199 more this time of year. And I suppose it's natural, right, you 68 00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:36,759 feel good, and then you sometimes feel better after you've given things. Sometimes 69 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:41,759 people are giving away toys, Sometimes they're giving away their clothing. Sometimes they're 70 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,839 giving away things that they don't need. But it's okay. If you don't 71 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,399 need them, why not put them to a good use. There are plenty 72 00:05:46,439 --> 00:05:50,279 of charities helping people that are homeless. They don't have enough money. They 73 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,319 just have enough money to make it ends meet. Things are still in good 74 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,079 condition, yes, yeah, right, exactly, Yep, that's the thing, 75 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,920 good condition. All right. There's some court news here that we ought 76 00:06:01,959 --> 00:06:08,800 to probably spend some time on the US Supreme Court. Yesterday Jay refused to 77 00:06:08,959 --> 00:06:15,000 take up a case about whether state and local governments can enforce laws banning conversion 78 00:06:15,079 --> 00:06:23,879 therapy for LGBTQ children. Now, first thing is to understand what conversion therapy 79 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:31,319 is. Enforcing laws banning it that is, and I know where I am 80 00:06:31,439 --> 00:06:35,879 on this because I think there's too much focus on it. Public schools are 81 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,800 not the place for this, I don't think. But that's things have changed 82 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:45,040 a lot in public school education. I think's one of the disasters. One 83 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,319 of the main major disasters in our country now is the public education system. 84 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:55,519 It doesn't work well for everybody. And if everybody's paying the bill, if 85 00:06:55,519 --> 00:07:03,240 we're all kicking in to throw tax dollars to have a public education system that 86 00:07:03,319 --> 00:07:09,800 works for everybody, then we are failing miserably. There are youngsters on the 87 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,399 top that are doing very well, youngsters on the bottom that are doing very 88 00:07:13,399 --> 00:07:16,759 well, but in the middle nothing. But this is not about that. 89 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:24,360 This is about the fact that the public school well, it's just government in 90 00:07:24,439 --> 00:07:30,600 general, so you get the gist of this. There was the question that 91 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:36,759 was brought to the Supreme Court was whether or not a government agency can enforce 92 00:07:36,959 --> 00:07:45,800 a law that had been passed by a government agency banning conversion therapy for children. 93 00:07:45,839 --> 00:07:47,160 And we've heard these stories about eleven year old, telve year old, 94 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,160 thirteen year old kids say I want to be a girl and they're boys, 95 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:55,120 so they start conversion theory. No, well, conversion therapy is also just 96 00:07:55,199 --> 00:07:59,360 even if you're gay people, This is a lack of unconditional love. Parents 97 00:07:59,399 --> 00:08:03,319 are the ones who put their children through this, and the parents are the 98 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,639 ones saying pretty much, I don't love you unless you're straight. Yeah, 99 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,839 that's not what? Well, that what is going on? You're right about 100 00:08:11,839 --> 00:08:16,079 that, and how can you love your children because they're your children. But 101 00:08:16,199 --> 00:08:18,959 then in turning, you know, trying to turn the tide, if you 102 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,480 will, the court actually turned away. There were only three justices that dissented, 103 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,519 so there were six that were on this. So some of the people 104 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:31,199 on the right joined some of the people on the left. This was an 105 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:37,519 appeal from Washington State, where the law has been upheld. An appellate judge 106 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,919 down there struck down local bands. I think there was a problem in Florida 107 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:52,720 two unconstitutional restriction on counselor's speech. Huh. That's a dicey one, isn't 108 00:08:52,759 --> 00:08:58,960 it. This is free speech, isn't for teachers and people in the school 109 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,559 system were supposed to do it, You're told, because that's what they're paid 110 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,519 to do. So if they don't do what they're paid to do, then 111 00:09:03,759 --> 00:09:07,600 there's an issue, right people, don't you think do you. I don't 112 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,559 know if you talk about this with your friends and our jay. Is this 113 00:09:09,639 --> 00:09:15,399 a confusing issue for people because there's so much disagreement, whether it be in 114 00:09:16,799 --> 00:09:22,480 whether it's the court, whether it's the church, whether it's a school system. 115 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,639 I don't think it's confusing. I think people are pretty staunch and where 116 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:33,679 they stand, whether it's one way or another. It's kind of like like 117 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,200 abortion topics, where people are either for or against. And I don't think 118 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:43,279 that there anybody is confused on which way. You know, it's just yeah, 119 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,480 they're just one side or the other side. There's not really a lot 120 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:52,240 of at all. Put yourself in the place of a parent who would be 121 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:58,200 for this. That would be a parent who say, you've got a twelve 122 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,399 thirteen year old and this first and this young person feels like he or she 123 00:10:03,279 --> 00:10:07,720 should be a different sex or maybe you don't. It's not go that far. 124 00:10:07,799 --> 00:10:11,519 It's just bisection. Yeah, but how do you know at that age? 125 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:15,879 Really do you? Do? You really know? Some do at that 126 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:20,600 age? Yeah, but how do you approach to know who they are? 127 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,879 But again, I go back to the whole it's it's a matter of unconditional 128 00:10:24,919 --> 00:10:31,159 love, m right and and so you recognize that, so that the therapy 129 00:10:31,799 --> 00:10:35,200 that's needed is probably more for the adults, or at least some of it, 130 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:41,759 right, adults need to have some glove focus on this and somehow or 131 00:10:41,759 --> 00:10:46,360 other he get it straight. Because I'm thinking that a lot of people who 132 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:54,200 are on this bandwagon not really too sure maybe, but even their own sexuality. 133 00:10:54,639 --> 00:10:56,600 But I think it's so some of this stuff. There's so many issues 134 00:10:56,639 --> 00:11:01,480 involved in this thing. There really are, and it's so personal. It 135 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,399 needs to be. It needs to be a family sort of thing, at 136 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:11,480 least that's the way I look at it. Anyway, it seems Elvis is 137 00:11:11,639 --> 00:11:18,159 always on Priscilla Presley's mind, which is kind of interesting. She's seventy eight 138 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,120 years old. She's been talking about her marriage, mostly because of the way 139 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:28,360 it's portrayed in this movie that's out right now called Priscilla, referred to as 140 00:11:28,399 --> 00:11:33,159 a roller coaster marriage. She says that there was something about him, and 141 00:11:33,279 --> 00:11:37,679 something about spending time in Graceland, something about him and her life. The 142 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:43,279 spirit of Elvis is there. Some other things that she said and other things 143 00:11:43,279 --> 00:11:46,440 about members of the family that I think are important and kind of interesting. 144 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,799 That's why they're trending, and that's why we're talking about them, and that's 145 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:54,080 why we'll continue to talk about them. So, Priscilla and Elvis had Lisa 146 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:58,600 Marie part of their being together for what was it ten years? Is that 147 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,960 what you said that they were marriage for ten No less than ten years. 148 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,480 They were only together for six years, which there is this this epic love 149 00:12:05,519 --> 00:12:09,639 story and relationship that has stood the test of time, especially with rock and 150 00:12:09,759 --> 00:12:11,480 roll, And then you think it was actually a little blimp of time. 151 00:12:11,519 --> 00:12:16,399 It was only they were only married for six years, but she stayed so 152 00:12:16,639 --> 00:12:20,000 iconic. Yeah, well, she stayed as part of his life. It 153 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,440 just wasn't she wasn't married to him. It kind of reminds me a little 154 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,440 of my own marriage. I was married for seven and a half almost eight 155 00:12:26,519 --> 00:12:33,000 years, and when I was very young, and then after that they were 156 00:12:33,039 --> 00:12:37,320 we all moved on, but we really didn't move on because of the children, 157 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,759 maybe as much, but I have always sad the children. I were 158 00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:41,840 talking about this this weekend, how I loved your mother. That's why I 159 00:12:41,879 --> 00:12:46,399 said to them more than I probably did anybody else that I've ever been anyway, 160 00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:50,039 And I think that's true. It just was a stupid time and the 161 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,200 way we did it, and I think Priscilla and Elvis the same thing. 162 00:12:52,279 --> 00:12:56,720 Elvis was immature in a lot of respects and she was very mature for her 163 00:12:56,799 --> 00:13:07,559 age. Right, So the movie is called Priscilla, and she said that 164 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,000 she had her reservations about the film. She worked on it, and apparently 165 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:16,519 did she put a stamp of approval on it. I didn't act to Sophia 166 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:22,080 Coppola. Yeah, yeah, anyway, So it's interesting because Priscilla is very 167 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:26,039 involved. I believe in both both movies that came out about their lives, 168 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:31,559 Priscilla Elvis. What was very different with Austin Butler? Was it just called 169 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,559 Elvis? Yes? It was, yep. Yeah. So anyway, some 170 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,120 food for thought Priscilla and love for Elvis. Here the focus. I am 171 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:45,200 Robert Strickler. My wife Joyce and I have been married for fifty three years. 172 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,840 Certainly one of the really important things in my life our children and our 173 00:13:48,879 --> 00:13:54,279 grandchildren. I am essentially a writer. I've been involved in communications in the 174 00:13:54,360 --> 00:14:00,399 media. I've been an avid fly fisherman for at least forty or more years. 175 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:05,320 I've been taking previagen on a regular basis for at least eight years. 176 00:14:05,039 --> 00:14:09,559 For me, the greatest benefit over the years has been that Previagen seems to 177 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:15,519 help me recall things and also think more clearly, have a crisper ability to 178 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:22,559 remember and think through things. And I enthusiastically recommend Previagen. It has helped 179 00:14:22,639 --> 00:14:28,200 me an awful lot Proviagen Healthier brain, better life. Robert Strickler is a 180 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,200 content contributor for Provagen and real User. Based on a clinical study of subgroups 181 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,279 of individuals who are cognitively normal or mildly impaired, this product is not intended 182 00:14:35,279 --> 00:14:39,000 to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. The season that 183 00:14:39,039 --> 00:14:46,440 we're in focusing on good things, but there are these continuing stories that you 184 00:14:46,559 --> 00:14:52,120 hear about people doing things that are almost like who's these Who are these people? 185 00:14:52,879 --> 00:15:00,799 There was a group meeting in Boston. Actually in one of the Boston 186 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:05,519 papers they call him here. They're deaf. It's a deaf group. Okay, 187 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,440 hearing impaired, Yeah yeah, yeah, but they're deaf. It's a 188 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:13,879 deaf group that has they've been meeting their most communities, most bigger communities have 189 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:20,120 these organizations that helped to cater and work with people who have various disabilities. 190 00:15:20,159 --> 00:15:26,399 Sonya, this guy comes in with a gun. They were the deaf people 191 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:31,519 were collecting things to give to their own to share for Christmas, and this 192 00:15:31,679 --> 00:15:39,240 thug comes in with a gun and he raids the place and cleans out all 193 00:15:39,279 --> 00:15:43,320 of the things that we're in. Now, these things happen, But I 194 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:48,559 guess I was more outraged because there's a group of deaf people and the maybe 195 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,440 you know, a thug is a thug, right, a crook as a 196 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:54,480 crook somebody who he was arrested. Anyway, they found this kid, he's 197 00:15:54,519 --> 00:15:58,799 nineteen years old. But just who thinks like that? Jay? Who thinks 198 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:03,200 that? And did he know who he was targeting with this constitute as a 199 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,799 hate crime? Well he did it because they couldn't hear him when he came 200 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,480 in. That's what that was the whole thing behind it. He said, 201 00:16:10,519 --> 00:16:12,279 Okay, I'm gonna go rob them because they won't be able to hear me. 202 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,759 Oh yeah, yeah, all right, So he was caught. That's 203 00:16:17,799 --> 00:16:22,200 good. Flu activity has increased around the country. Most of you have noted 204 00:16:22,759 --> 00:16:26,360 this. I can't tell you how many people I know who have been sick 205 00:16:26,399 --> 00:16:30,159 for sometimes a couple of days, three or four days I had it myself. 206 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,039 It's not COVID, it's not RSV. It's this. It's a strain 207 00:16:34,639 --> 00:16:38,399 of the flu. Yeah, it's kind of like a cold. It's the 208 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,279 flu. I feel like we all forgot that the cold, like colds and 209 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:47,559 flus exist for a little bit. Our first thought, right typically is like, 210 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:52,000 is it COVID? I should take a COVID test really quickly. Yeah. 211 00:16:52,399 --> 00:16:55,559 Well, when I got it, I did test myself for COVID because 212 00:16:55,559 --> 00:16:59,799 I want to make sure it wasn't COVID, And it wasn't but something. 213 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,480 But it's so strong. From a lot of people that I know have had 214 00:17:04,519 --> 00:17:10,759 it in four or five days or maybe longer. Somebody I knew last week 215 00:17:10,759 --> 00:17:14,960 got it and still has it. So you build up your immune system by 216 00:17:15,039 --> 00:17:18,160 taking lots of vitamin C, having lots of good food, lots of good 217 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,039 food, lots of good soup, that sort of thing, and make sure 218 00:17:22,039 --> 00:17:26,640 you get plenty of sleep. That's as much as anything else. That is 219 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:30,480 the way to counter this. By having plenty of rest, have your body 220 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:36,480 in good shape. All right, Let's move to the outrage of the day 221 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:42,480 Texas Supreme Court is ruled against this woman who sought an abortion. She says, 222 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:48,440 listen, I've had enough with Texas. I'm going to go somewhere else. 223 00:17:48,079 --> 00:17:52,200 The Texas Supreme Court. This is something again, This is so wrong 224 00:17:52,880 --> 00:18:00,799 in so many different ways. This lady is already the mother of two and 225 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:06,400 she's twenty weeks pregnant with her third baby. She found out just after Thanksgiving 226 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:12,799 excuse me, that her fetus has a fatal disease and will die either in 227 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:19,000 her womb or upon being born. So she wanted to terminate the pregnancy to 228 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:26,680 protect her health and her future ability to have children, And so they wanted 229 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:36,079 to They wanted to get a court order to block the abortion band from applying 230 00:18:36,079 --> 00:18:40,599 to her, as well it should and the sol medical situation. This isn't 231 00:18:40,599 --> 00:18:45,400 somebody using abortion as a form of birth control. This is a person who 232 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,920 got pregnant, was thrilled with the pregnancy once the baby, had an earth 233 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:56,680 shattering realization to find out that her baby would not survive, and now basically 234 00:18:56,759 --> 00:19:02,000 is being told by the state to wait until it becomes a life or death 235 00:19:02,079 --> 00:19:07,119 situation in her sense, and right do they have the ability to children in 236 00:19:07,519 --> 00:19:11,000 the future if she doesn't end up waiting? So she's going to cross state 237 00:19:11,039 --> 00:19:15,799 lines and go go take care of herself. That's what she should do. 238 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:19,000 What business is it of the states? You know, they say they're protecting 239 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:23,039 the life of an unborn child in this case. That is so stupid. 240 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,079 They aren't. The doctors have all said, all of them, She's been 241 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:32,319 examined any number of times, and they all agree that either she'll die, 242 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,799 the baby when it's born will die, or both of them will die. 243 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:45,559 Are use that tone death to individual? The credence or lack thereof that these 244 00:19:45,599 --> 00:19:53,160 people have for making decisions like this, I just it's beyond the fact. 245 00:19:53,599 --> 00:20:00,319 There's no objective thinking here. Frankly, So this lady says, can't get 246 00:20:00,319 --> 00:20:03,960 an abortion in Texas, okay, or go somewhere else. But why should 247 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:10,480 she have to? And again I say this because has Texas had a vote 248 00:20:10,519 --> 00:20:14,559 on this? This year? Was Ohio? But there have been a number 249 00:20:14,599 --> 00:20:18,720 of states because really the Supreme Court decision didn't change Roe v. Wade. 250 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:23,960 It's just put the power in the states right exactly. And every state that's 251 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,559 had a vote on it, I think when are there eleven, twelve, 252 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:32,440 thirteen states that are voted on it? Every single one of them have voted 253 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:37,400 to stay with in essence, the Roe v. Wade decision, and that's 254 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,559 the way I think it should be. Frankly, has nothing to do with 255 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:45,839 liberalism or conservatism, has to do with human decency and well. This is 256 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:51,359 also an example of the different needs for an abortion where I think a lot 257 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,440 of people in the argument of abortion, most people come back to who are 258 00:20:55,519 --> 00:20:57,759 against abortion are against it because of people who use it as a form of 259 00:20:57,799 --> 00:21:03,279 birth control, people who suddenly change their mind and want to terminate their pregnancy 260 00:21:03,039 --> 00:21:10,039 at a relatively late dately twenty weeks pregnant is kind of late in this situation, 261 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,119 though. Her baby is going to die no matter what. The question 262 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:17,039 is, is she going to die? She could she die? Could she 263 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:22,240 be taken from her already the existing children? Could she lose the ability this 264 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,400 again, I kept saying this, But this is a woman who wanted this 265 00:21:25,519 --> 00:21:30,480 child, who had her entire world shattered, her heart shattered when she found 266 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,400 out the fate of her child. Now she's just trying to protect herself, 267 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,880 to protect the mother of her children, and protect her future ability to have 268 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:48,720 to have more children. It's just, you know, it's an older somebody 269 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:53,519 seasoned in a veteran. In the various social wars that have taken place over 270 00:21:53,559 --> 00:21:59,519 the last of fifty sixty years or so, this is one that's been consistently 271 00:21:59,599 --> 00:22:06,480 handled poorly by many many people participating in the debate. So it's great business 272 00:22:06,519 --> 00:22:08,160 time for Caldron. I would think the phones would be ringing off the hook 273 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:12,400 and people would be ordering nauseum. That's right.

That sounds like it would be kind of fun. 284 00:22:56,599 --> 00:23:00,960 Caldron at top loss dot com thanks to Elizabeth Miller here one of the 285 00:23:00,079 --> 00:23:07,079 great caltrinconsultants at toploss dot com. Jay does a fabulous job of bringing together 286 00:23:07,279 --> 00:23:12,359 all of these thoughts and things that not only what we talk about here regarding 287 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:18,240 social media, the things that technically we encounter, but also some of the 288 00:23:18,279 --> 00:23:23,079 stories about people who are trending and stories that are posted that we have on 289 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:27,759 our social media that you can comment on by just using at good Day Networks. 290 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:34,079 First focus here is on an Arizona woman who fell victim to a deep 291 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:41,480 fake Scamjay using celebrities on social media. So these are artificially generated. This 292 00:23:41,599 --> 00:23:47,079 is AI altered images, videos, that sort of thing. It's becoming more 293 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:52,920 and more difficult to know what's true, what's real. So this lady was 294 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,680 making you an online purchase. She said, she did her research, but 295 00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:03,279 she saw Oprah Winfrey with a product and so she was okay, Well, 296 00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:07,119 I saw Oprah and that okay, this is good. If she backs it, 297 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:11,839 it'll be okay. So she ordered it. She bought a bottle of 298 00:24:11,759 --> 00:24:17,599 Keito gummies. I guess at the website promises of weight loss and all that 299 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:22,000 stuff with the approval of Oprah. She paid forty nine bucks for this stuff, 300 00:24:22,599 --> 00:24:26,000 and then she went to her bank account and she was charged two hundred 301 00:24:26,039 --> 00:24:30,960 and fifty eight dollars. This is how these This is by the way, 302 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:36,880 even the legitimate companies that have auto or they call it auto draw or auto 303 00:24:37,079 --> 00:24:40,799 shipper, yeah, the auto track. Yeah, never order anything things. 304 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:45,079 Yeah, no, you don't ever. You pay for what you use and 305 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,240 that's it. Don't allow them to keep sucking from you, because trying to 306 00:24:48,319 --> 00:24:52,759 find them to cancel it, it'll take here a week. So this well, 307 00:24:52,799 --> 00:24:56,000 they always offer these discounts, I think because I have done this before 308 00:24:56,039 --> 00:24:57,880 where I was like, oh, I want the discounts, I'll subscribe and 309 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:02,279 then I'll cancel the subscri scription or I'll pause it or halt it or whatever, 310 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,440 and I forget entirely about it until all of a sudden I get the 311 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,839 notification. But a reputable company will not just draft it. They will send 312 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,440 you the notification of like, hey, your subscription order is about to ship. 313 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,440 If you want to make any changes, here you go. So I've 314 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:19,559 always had that reminder of oh, yeah, that's right. But a lot 315 00:25:19,559 --> 00:25:22,359 of these companies they will not give you that. And Oprah has been very 316 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:26,640 open too about the fact that she's been used a lot, because she's been 317 00:25:26,759 --> 00:25:30,359 very vocal about weight loss efforts through pretty much the entirety of her career. 318 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,240 She's been really big with weight Watchers and she has even said that is the 319 00:25:33,279 --> 00:25:37,759 only one that she backs. And she's been used for all of these different 320 00:25:37,839 --> 00:25:41,519 weight loss scams on social media. And this poy Arizona woman, her name's 321 00:25:41,559 --> 00:25:45,799 Laura. She anytime she goes to buy something online, she does her research. 322 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:48,759 This one time she was like, oh, it's backed by Oprah, 323 00:25:48,799 --> 00:25:53,880 It's totally legit didn't do any research. There are a lot of other celebrities 324 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,039 that have been used here. I know Tom Hanks is pretty upset about his 325 00:25:57,279 --> 00:26:03,720 likeness being used for this sort of thing without permission. Obviously, there are 326 00:26:03,839 --> 00:26:07,119 others who have gone on, whether it's weight loss stuff or whatever they're selling. 327 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,880 The number one thing is if they want your credit card number and they 328 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:17,200 say well, we'll automatically sell send this to you every month, just say 329 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,920 no, no, I'll take one and I'll try it and if I want 330 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,559 more, I'll get back to you. But in this case, this lady 331 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,799 experienced what so many of us have over the years when the you know, 332 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:33,480 they you sign up and good luck. She said. She called, send 333 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,559 emails, tried to get to the company to cancel the order.
