WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:13.439 You're listening to the downbeat on ninety seven to one the Freak four. Good 2 00:00:13.480 --> 00:00:17.920 morning, Hey, it's most of your your cool ass down beat here today, 3 00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:23.480 any Batles, Mike's froid JJ's here. We mentioned Kevin's coming back from 4 00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:30.960 Italy. Today, we got correspondence from this psycho somewhere over the Atlantic, 5 00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:39.640 and I think he's approaching the deepest point of the Atlantic. He is listening. 6 00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:44.359 This nut not only is just reaching out to us because he knows we're 7 00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:50.359 awake. He somehow has it been able to find himself smart enough to stream 8 00:00:51.479 --> 00:00:55.880 our show on a plane. Show's easy to stream though, thanks the iHeart 9 00:00:56.280 --> 00:01:00.119 Radio app, a quality app where you get a lot of free programming. 10 00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:04.480 Should download the iHeartRadio app. Just look up ninety seven the free You can 11 00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:08.480 listen anywhere, including right over the deadliest portion of the Atlantic Ocean, which 12 00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:12.400 Kevin is approaching. He is listening, he said, I feel worse about 13 00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:17.359 my chances at safety after hearing the Jardians Lady, because we did have a 14 00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:22.239 cameo from the Jardians Lady singing a song about Kevin successfully traversing the Atlantic Ocean, 15 00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:26.319 or hoping to do so. He said, Rise's been a little bumpy. 16 00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:30.000 Danny reassures him with it's just turbulence. You're fine, but it was 17 00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:33.599 interesting. If you're on the plane, you're not privy to the information that 18 00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:36.159 we have. Because I'm actually looking at a flight tracker and there are a 19 00:01:36.159 --> 00:01:40.959 lot of red words on this talking about American Online flight two thirty nine. 20 00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:45.439 There's a lot of information about things. I look, Kevin's listening, so 21 00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:49.599 I don't want to. I shouldn't read this. He shouldn't know this. 22 00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:56.519 Look, we can't. We can't deny our our audience of top tier content 23 00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:00.439 just because one man might find take objection to yeah, exact, So let's 24 00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:05.280 not. Let's let's do the right thing here and sure share your info with 25 00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:07.799 with the larger group. The truth is, he's on the plane, he 26 00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:12.719 shouldn't know. You know how many engines are down to right. We know 27 00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:15.800 that because we have flight trackers where we can tell the sort of thing, 28 00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:19.879 but they probably prevent that info get and released, and that certainly Captain's not 29 00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:24.159 gonna come out and say it. Look it does say here at the bottom. 30 00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:31.639 Passengers are probably gonna be fine. Okay. So that's all, Kevin, 31 00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:36.840 That's all you need to know kevio Let sweet Roxy sleep. It seems 32 00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:40.240 like also in his flight path if you if you look, not only is 33 00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:46.039 he one of the deepest parts of the ocean, I mean he approaching. 34 00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:50.240 He's not over the deepest yet, he's in front of him also near one 35 00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:53.759 of the coldest parts. Because when you're flying between two countries that are green 36 00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:59.000 on the map and the one directly above you is white. Yea, I'm 37 00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:02.879 assuming that's he's coming up on some white nation, a white nation that is 38 00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:12.479 covered in frozen water otherwise known as ice, and the water around that, 39 00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:16.800 that ice, that giant ice island is probably incredibly cold. Yeah, yeah, 40 00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:21.319 that would be tough. He's a survivor though, even know, if 41 00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:23.080 things go south, he's going to be like one of them polar bears clinging 42 00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:27.840 to a you know, the block of ice. The hell this guy get 43 00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:30.719 on there? But he's on there, and that's the most important thing. 44 00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:35.680 You're still alive right now. If Roxy wakes up, you may want to 45 00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:38.759 just say whatever you gotta say, though, anything you want to say, 46 00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:44.319 just in case you're not like, not like an official goodbye, no, 47 00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:51.840 no, I agree, but maybe exactly do what we all should be doing. 48 00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:54.520 To the people that we're closest to every day exact but especially now. 49 00:03:55.400 --> 00:04:00.360 There's a very wise person who once said to a enjoy your every minute while 50 00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:06.360 you have it. And according to flight Aware, we might not have all 51 00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:10.400 that many minutes left. They changed things out as quick on this world. 52 00:04:10.439 --> 00:04:14.560 So enjoy your every minute while you have it. If you have a window 53 00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:17.800 seat, don't look out toward whatever wing you're next to him. I'd say 54 00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:24.040 that to him, because there's gonna be a lot of darkness and silence and 55 00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:29.160 smoke and maybe smoke. That's why they put four engines on that thing, 56 00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:33.240 big dog. I don't need them all, No, just need one in 57 00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:42.120 the According to this it's blinking, but you have one. You're good, 58 00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:44.480 aren't you? Glad you tuned in? keV? Oh, good morning, 59 00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:48.279 Kevin. That's probably the most important thing in the world. Let's stood up. 60 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:18.079 Look, I ain't lie the most more than the world's maths are tied 61 00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:28.160 one to one. The boys are coming home, unlike keV. The MAVs 62 00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:32.360 are still in this series. Unlike yeah, yeah, we'll get to We'll 63 00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:38.680 get to MAVs in about twenty minutes Sports at seven. But for now, 64 00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:42.399 I have for the most important thing in the world, a law change, 65 00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:45.680 if you want to put it as such. And this affects us, you 66 00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:47.439 know, so obviously this gets text around real quick. But there's a great 67 00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:53.480 chance this affects you someone you or someone you live with or friends. I 68 00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:57.800 mean, it affects a lot of people. Thirty million people deal with these. 69 00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:02.439 I think it's one in five Americans are either under one right now or 70 00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:11.000 have have been in their employment lives. And yeah, something big happened over 71 00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:15.160 I guess yesterday, Yeah, yesterday. So the FTC, the Federal Trade 72 00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:23.240 Commission, essentially banned non compete agreements non competes do I mean, there's different 73 00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:26.639 ways a look at this, you know, and depending on where you get 74 00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:30.959 your news, it will be you know, pumped, absolutely pumped your direction 75 00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:34.439 in whatever way most benefits that people are providing your news, I suppose. 76 00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:46.120 But to my best understanding of this, and these were created basically to protect 77 00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:53.959 company information, data strategies, secrets, things of that nature. And in 78 00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:59.759 that regard, I think those there's certain there's certain smaller elements of the non 79 00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:04.439 comp that I think are important, especially maybe in the tech world or finance 80 00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:12.399 world, any world where you work you you deal with maybe proprietary data. 81 00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:17.959 So if you left that company, you immediately don't just steal their ideas or 82 00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:26.199 share strategies or secrets with a competing company a non compete what they've evolved into. 83 00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:32.160 Unfortunately, and again this is my experience in my opinion, and you 84 00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:38.560 will get varying takes on this out this this whole thing, depending on who 85 00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:46.600 you ask, what it's done is is kind of been a tool to hamstring 86 00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:53.959 workers to where it's not so much anymore about protecting secrets. And I'm talking 87 00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:58.800 about the people that are making tons and tons of money. It now affects 88 00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:01.519 people that are making minimal way. These things are in place for fast food 89 00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:07.879 workers so that if you leave a Burger King and you don't like working at 90 00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:13.399 Burger King anymore, there's people that are working under noncompete contracts that if they 91 00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:18.000 left that Burger King, if they wanted to go work at Windy's and it 92 00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:22.399 was within a five mile radius, yeah they can't. They can't, And 93 00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:26.120 it's not so they don't. They don't steal from Burger King. The mystic 94 00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:31.279 art of the flame broil, you know, Yeah, but that's you're exactly 95 00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:37.480 right in the world where like high end economic jobs, tech, even banking 96 00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:41.240 or whatever, it makes sense. But then smaller, lower paying regular jobs 97 00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:46.240 kind of started sneaking these in as like boilerplate language. It's the tooth. 98 00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:50.360 Whatever they sign on for, like you said, retail, hospitality, construction, 99 00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:56.519 fast food, it don't belong. And the reason for this is is 100 00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:01.480 it wields a certain amount of power over and that if they're in a situation 101 00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:05.960 where they're not necessarily happy and they want to have a better outlook on life 102 00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:11.000 and maybe work for someplace that's different, it kind of makes them think twice 103 00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:16.879 because it's like, Okay, well if I leave, then I've got to 104 00:09:16.960 --> 00:09:18.799 either wait. Depending on how long you're non competing, some of them are 105 00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:22.879 up to eighteen months that I've been reading. Some people are not having to 106 00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:28.799 not work in their field for eighteen months, and they're kind of being tethered 107 00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:35.399 to these companies where there's really no competition for wages. There's no bidding wars. 108 00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:37.320 It's like some say, you work for one company and another company goes, 109 00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:41.440 man, I love what you do. We'll double your pay if you 110 00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:46.039 come over here. You can't leave because if you do, then you're going 111 00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:48.039 to have to sit for six months, a year, a year and a 112 00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:52.159 half, maybe two years in some cases. So do you have enough money 113 00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:54.879 in your bank to not work for a year? Yeah? Yeah, Or 114 00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:58.679 here's what's happened. You remember you've heard this about our whole life. Well, 115 00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:05.000 Frank had to take a job in another state, or we're moving because 116 00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:07.519 of work. Well it's like, well, doesn't Frank work for a bank. 117 00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:09.279 It's like, yeah, but he can't work at any banks in Dallas 118 00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:13.120 because he left this one institution. So we're going to have to go to 119 00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:18.000 another market. And costs are you know, involved in in a move. 120 00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:22.000 And who wants to uproot your family and take your kids out of school just 121 00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:26.240 because a noncompete prohibits you from doing your job, the thing that you were 122 00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:31.240 trained to do and good at, in a city that you love being in. 123 00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:35.519 And they're incredibly unfair in that regard, and they kind of hold their 124 00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:41.080 employees hostage. Now, I in a way, it's almost kind of makes 125 00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:46.080 a little bit of sense with the fast food or retail because these companies do 126 00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:50.200 spend a ton of money. A lot of their expenses are in training, 127 00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:54.480 so you're basically, you know, having to pay people to train them, 128 00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:56.240 and you give them all of this knowledge and they work for two months and 129 00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:00.840 then they leave, and then it's an inconvenience to bring in another person and 130 00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:03.000 train that person for a month or two months or whatever to get them up 131 00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:07.440 to speed on your protocols and your dynamic and all of that. And it 132 00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:11.519 kind of it does make a little bit of sense. So you're not just, 133 00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:15.240 you know, have this revolving door of people just training and leaving and 134 00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:18.320 training and leaving. But hey, guess what pay your employees they what they 135 00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:24.480 should earn, what their value is, and provide a workplace that is enjoyable 136 00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:30.440 to be in. Then you don't have to worry about them leaving. And 137 00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:35.240 that's the problem is because once they have you under a non compete, they 138 00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:39.240 pretty much have you, Yeah, because they know your options are incredibly limited. 139 00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:41.519 Anyway, it creates No, you're absolutely right, and I like a 140 00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:46.480 measured response at it, and I agree with you. Yeah, but look, 141 00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:50.879 the favor is more often than not tilted toward the bosses and the corporations 142 00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:52.799 in this country. So yes, if one of the prices that they have 143 00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:58.799 to pay is training and having trouble retaining, Yeah, that's not ideal, 144 00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:03.879 but it does give more power to the worker and the little guy essentially is 145 00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:09.240 what this does. And it will create a churning of employees. It will 146 00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:15.679 give people opportunities and the you know, ability to seize opportunities when they're presented 147 00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:20.440 to them, rather than just stay stagnated at the job and not take those 148 00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:24.600 potential opportunities as they come, right, I mean not Cope's essentially trap workers 149 00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:26.720 into their jobs and prevent them from using their skills to earn higher pay. 150 00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:28.759 And that's what it should be. You know, you should be able to 151 00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:33.720 move. Go just do something else. How about this one? Go start 152 00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:37.720 your own business. Now I do here, I do hear that side of 153 00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:41.519 Like, I work at Danny Bayless Industries, and you teach me everything you 154 00:12:41.039 --> 00:12:46.879 know, and I learn how to make wacky parody songs that are funny, 155 00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:50.320 and then I go and start you know, soroy music, and I just 156 00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:54.519 have more money and more investment, and I crushed Danny Baylists Industries. I 157 00:12:54.519 --> 00:12:58.200 mean that's sort of the picture painted for those who oppose this sort of thing. 158 00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:01.879 But whatever, if you work here your place and you're like, look, 159 00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:03.840 I know how this thing works, and I got a better way to 160 00:13:03.879 --> 00:13:07.559 do it. I can do it cheaper and smarter and employ good people. 161 00:13:07.480 --> 00:13:09.960 It's America, right. You should have the opportunity to do it, and 162 00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:16.159 as per yesterday's announcement by the FTC, you now or soon at least, 163 00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:22.039 will have the opportunity do them. I spoke with a friend of yours and 164 00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:28.440 mine that is an attorney that works in this field and is pretty knowledgeable on 165 00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:33.639 all things labor related, and he sent we were communicating yesterday about this, 166 00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:39.519 and he said that the Federal Trade Commission is setting the effective date one hundred 167 00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:43.519 and twenty days from now. Okay, this was after the vote passed, 168 00:13:45.159 --> 00:13:50.039 but as a practical matter, it will be almost impossible to enforce non competes 169 00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:56.200 after today. So I think what he's saying here is that if you are 170 00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.120 working under a non compete and you want to violate it, leave your job, 171 00:14:01.240 --> 00:14:03.360 go work somewhere else. If that other company is willing to take you 172 00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:09.000 on and take that risk of a lawsuit, well, I think what he's 173 00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:13.559 saying here is that number one, knowing that the writing is on the wall 174 00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:20.600 and that this is going to go into effect, that what company is going 175 00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:28.399 to spend more resources fighting something that is going to ultimately lose anyway. We've 176 00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:35.039 seen been very close to a case with friends of ours involved that fought a 177 00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:39.440 non compete before any of this ruling happened and one and one and by and 178 00:14:39.519 --> 00:14:46.200 law. From what I understand is non competes are very hard to enforce anyway, 179 00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:54.360 especially if you have a pretty good team that can go up against corporate 180 00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:56.120 law and knows the ins and outs of this stuff. Because look, the 181 00:14:56.879 --> 00:15:03.759 corporate lawyers, the bulk of their strategy is intimidation tactic anyway, and it's 182 00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:09.120 this cease and desist or we're threatening legal action and you're going to be responsible 183 00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:16.200 for all of the costs that we incur. It's kind of that. But 184 00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:20.000 once you get into a courtroom and present your case, the judge and jury 185 00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:24.639 or whoever is deciding on the outcome looks at these things for what they are, 186 00:15:24.919 --> 00:15:28.600 and they're bs and there's a reason why they got voted out, and 187 00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:33.159 there's a reason why they're going to be obsolete or completely gone in about what 188 00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:37.600 six and four months. Yeah, and specifically I think in Texas, I 189 00:15:37.600 --> 00:15:39.679 don't even know. I'll say it like I know the right to work thing. 190 00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:43.360 Don't even know exactly what that means, but from what I understand in 191 00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:46.720 Texas, they nearly impossible to uphold anyway prior to yesterday, sure, and 192 00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:50.759 obviously prior to two months from now. When they are four months from now, 193 00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:54.080 when it becomes official official, It's awesome, man, this is a 194 00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:58.799 good day. Cal feel texting. One dude says, I won't to say 195 00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:03.519 his name whatever, I'm an automatic door repair technician. We have five years 196 00:16:03.559 --> 00:16:07.039 on our non compete, and another guy I didn't think say what he does, 197 00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:11.080 but it is minus three years. So I wonder even when this is 198 00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:15.519 just full steam ahead with the maximum amount, or maybe it's I don't know, 199 00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:18.000 if five is just to scare you, maybe so you don't even think 200 00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:22.399 about leaving, or three years, but those those essentially lock you into that 201 00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:26.440 job, probably at whatever pay you're at, within reason. If you have 202 00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:30.039 an annual increase in salary, fine, well yeah, because they know your 203 00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:34.120 options are limited to there's. It takes away the competition, it takes away 204 00:16:34.159 --> 00:16:40.240 your earning power. And I've sat in so many fing meetings when it's time 205 00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:44.360 for a review or it's time for a raise, and you see, you 206 00:16:44.480 --> 00:16:49.360 see what the company is generating revenue wise, and then you get the good 207 00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:52.519 cop, bad cop, dog and pony show of yeah, we just had 208 00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:56.840 a really rough quarter, and yeah, we're not gonna be able to give 209 00:16:56.879 --> 00:17:03.399 you that that that two percent salary increase, which translates to I don't know 210 00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:10.400 about fifteen dollars a paycheck, and you kind of just go all right, 211 00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:15.480 because what are you gonna do? Yeah, no, nothing, You're locked. 212 00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:18.359 And then you quit and then watch them line up ready to give you 213 00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:25.519 the world estimate of the ban the ban of this not non competes again yesterday 214 00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:30.200 announced from the FT the Federal Trade Commission could increase wages by three hundred billion 215 00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:33.319 a year and it will impact nearly thirty million Americans, as you stated earlier. 216 00:17:34.240 --> 00:17:37.200 Yeah, the thing is, man, that the way these things were 217 00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:47.000 originated, to my best understanding is it feels like that it was the right 218 00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:52.079 thing to do for company secrets, strategies, whatnot, but they used it 219 00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:56.599 as a tool for evil. And you get rid of the non competes. 220 00:17:56.920 --> 00:18:03.559 Look, just when you make a new higher then you have them sign NDAs 221 00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:07.599 to say or put the language in the contract saying that if I go to 222 00:18:07.599 --> 00:18:12.319 another company. Then I agree that I will not share information. I will 223 00:18:12.359 --> 00:18:18.880 not share documents or secrets or whatever a plan, your plan, I won't 224 00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:22.880 do that. But to keep people from opening their own businesses, to keep 225 00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:29.720 people from from going for a more a higher paying job, to eliminate the 226 00:18:29.759 --> 00:18:37.240 competition as far as salaries and payment and wages and all that. That's it's 227 00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:41.640 not very American if you ask me. It's a win for work worker types, 228 00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:48.440 no doubt, and it's an l for big corporate types. I mean, 229 00:18:48.440 --> 00:18:51.519 it just kind of is. It's one of those things too, which 230 00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:56.319 is good. If you're divided on a group of people that could be divided 231 00:18:56.359 --> 00:19:03.319 on politics, I don't see unless you are the head of a big corporation, 232 00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:06.880 if you're an everyday working man, like you know, all of us 233 00:19:06.920 --> 00:19:10.079 and most of the people that are listening to us right now, I don't 234 00:19:10.119 --> 00:19:12.160 see how. I don't see how you would butt heads on this issue. 235 00:19:12.279 --> 00:19:15.799 Now. It's a pretty common thing that, yeah, we want to I 236 00:19:15.839 --> 00:19:19.119 want more earning power. I want flexibility. I want to be able to 237 00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:22.759 leave my job if I'm unhappy and be able to take another job in the 238 00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:26.359 city that I live in. Yes, but I'll say this. My mom's 239 00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:29.599 in town and staying with me, and I told her this, I'm like, 240 00:19:29.599 --> 00:19:30.680 and this affects me, you know, affects us, and it does 241 00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:36.480 affect radio and television and a lot more people than you would guess. Obviously, 242 00:19:36.519 --> 00:19:38.759 you apply it to yourself. Everyone does. I told her, She's 243 00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:42.000 like, that sounds great, you know. But then once it, you 244 00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:47.160 know, hit her that this is under this administration. I would imagine by 245 00:19:47.160 --> 00:19:48.839 the time she has a twenty four hour news cycle, she'll have a list 246 00:19:48.839 --> 00:19:52.960 of reasons why this is not fair and shouldn't be the case, which sucks, 247 00:19:53.160 --> 00:19:56.799 you know. But look, the truth is, I've not done a 248 00:19:56.839 --> 00:19:59.640 lot of research. I read the headlines and I'm like, it feels like 249 00:19:59.640 --> 00:20:03.279 a win for workers. It definitely is a win for us in this job, 250 00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:07.680 because yes, no could be supply and radio where you would have to 251 00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:11.279 wait many, many months depending on how long years is to go do what 252 00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:17.519 you do without bringing, yeah, without bringing you know, a political bias 253 00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:19.440 into it. I'd love to hear the other side. I'd love to hear 254 00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:25.240 how this is a negative thing. And I've yet to read anything outside of 255 00:20:26.599 --> 00:20:33.960 the mouthpieces for giant corporations that really say anything against this that makes any sense 256 00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:36.759 to me. The two I heard were sort of what you said, which 257 00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:40.519 was, you know, a company spends all this time training someone, teaching 258 00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:44.599 them, and then now that someone can turn their back on the company instantly 259 00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:48.480 and then work and possibly and you know, they frame it as take that 260 00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:55.079 proprietary information to their competition or start their own business and screw the people who 261 00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:56.359 invest the time and money. And then which I agree with, which is 262 00:20:56.359 --> 00:21:00.319 one of the downshops and not necessarily fair, but a lot of unfair things 263 00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:03.200 happen, and it's always in the direction of the big guy, very rarely 264 00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:06.839 the little guy, So I support that. And the other one is that, 265 00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:08.119 hey, when you sign a contract, you should live by you know, 266 00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:11.839 that's what you should do, and then you probably will hear the Hey, 267 00:21:11.839 --> 00:21:18.160 I had a noncompete, much like the student debt relief. Hey, 268 00:21:18.200 --> 00:21:21.240 I agreed to that, and I paid off all my things, so no 269 00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:22.920 one else should ever, you know, get that deal. Even though it's 270 00:21:22.920 --> 00:21:26.440 almost all interest rates. It's not actually the debt that you are paying, 271 00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:30.480 it a loan that you got, you know, it's all this interesting crease. 272 00:21:30.519 --> 00:21:33.559 So whatever, I don't know, I just know it affects us. 273 00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:37.319 This is good news for us. It affects a lot of jobs. Here's 274 00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:42.759 one only maybe my Twitter algorithm which expose him A bunch of wrestling fans. 275 00:21:42.799 --> 00:21:47.720 We're like, oh my god, how does this affect wrestling and everything's wrestling 276 00:21:47.759 --> 00:21:49.319 as we know, Daddy, And it does. Now if you have someone 277 00:21:49.359 --> 00:21:53.799 on ae W that you like and they quit and they can't come to WWE, 278 00:21:55.319 --> 00:21:57.960 now once this is through, they can. It just affects a lot 279 00:21:59.000 --> 00:22:03.119 of random things that you think of that that will I think, I think 280 00:22:03.319 --> 00:22:07.119 make everything a little bit better, but it should drum up a lot of 281 00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:10.079 money, a lot of employee churn, and a lot of opportunities for employees. 282 00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:15.640 It could end up, you know, being drawn out in courts. 283 00:22:15.920 --> 00:22:18.240 It could end it could land at the feet of the Supreme Court. I 284 00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:21.160 don't know. Yeah, I've read a lot of different things. But I 285 00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:26.759 saw the Commission of the FTC or the chairman chairwoman in this case and she's 286 00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:30.240 like, look, just read the law. This falls squarely onto us. 287 00:22:30.599 --> 00:22:33.640 We have the ability to make this decision, and we did. Okay, 288 00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:37.720 so we'll see. But anyway, I guarantee that effects either who's ever listening 289 00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:41.440 or someone one degree away from me, because thirty million Americans affected by the 290 00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:45.920 decision by the FTC to get rid of non competes just yesterday. All Right, 291 00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:48.119 it's Danny and Mikey, no Kevy. He's in the air. He's 292 00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:52.920 bringing his hot buns to Italian buns, sticky buns back to us right now, 293 00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:56.839 and he'll be on the show with us tomorrow. Time to jump into 294 00:22:56.839 --> 00:23:00.000 it, man, because that was technically the most important thing in the world 295 00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:02.279 world, but the most important thing in the world in our world. So 296 00:23:02.359 --> 00:23:07.359 you're fighting Dallas Mavericks, who became the first Western Conference team to get a 297 00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:11.039 road win in these playoffs yet, and it was a damn good one. 298 00:23:11.119 --> 00:23:14.240 Let's talk a little MAVs hoops and see what else we can get into next. 299 00:23:14.279 --> 00:23:15.160 On the ninety seven, The Freak
