Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Here this time I want you to keep
your hands and feet inside the car till the ride comes to a complete stop.
Here he is, once again for your listening entertainment, the admiral of
the airwaves, the poindexter of podcasts, your favorite of mine. Get ready
for mister Billmoin. Wow, look at that. There he is, Doug
E. Fresh. I'm prison, I'm paro, looking good, feeling good.
Here he is. That's so funny. Welcome, Thanks for getting your
pot on, Thanks for telling a friend. That's how we spread the word
about the pirate ship. Doug was ubering in town and right around the corner
one bye, Like, yeah, I've seen the four o'clock traffic. The
highways were jammed well because of the rain. Yeah, yeah, they had
a lot of rain. And then I'm seeing all kinds of accidents. I
think it was backed up from the fair Port exit back to the city.
Yeah, And I was two minutes from you turned off the app So I'm
like, oh, I'll just swing by and here you are, and here
we are. Yes, that's right. John. The nurse is in tonight.
Lots of things to uh to talk to you about. That are in
the in the news and different things that I'm hearing about from other people that
work in emergency. See if it's kind of uh the standard for you.
Danny's here, Kevin's here, the whole gang, the whole gang. John
since, uh, since you're here. And one of the big things today
is the news about Bronnie James lebron James Son uh suffered cardiac arrest while playing
basketball at USC. He's going to be a freshman at USC. He's eighteen
years old. He actually passed out, was out completely and brought in.
He's out of ICU, but he's in Uh, he's in the hospital,
and I go, boy, is this something that were It's scary when you
see a young person having cardiac arrest. But I did grab this audio just
to and we'll see if you agree. KFI AM six forty in LA talk
to a guy named doctor Jim Keeney. And Jim Keeney is a emergency medicine
physician, so I'll probably an ear doc. And this is what he had
to say. You know, it's more common than you think, especially in
male athletes, especially in black male athletes. You know, about one and
twenty thousand or at risk for having some type of cardiac event, especially what
would you call sudden cardiac death and related to sports. So that's why pre
participation, first physicals are required. You're hoping you pick up some of those
things. You know what they do EKGs before they participate. That looks for
things. There's there's weird stuff, one called wolf Parkinson white. Another one's
called long qt s drome. Uh. The other ones, you know,
there's there's a lot of them. So you're looking for those on EKG before
they participate. You're trying to get a physical exam where so you could identify
cardiomyopathy, which is an abnormal structure of the muscle of the heart. Uh.
You know in my generation it was Len Bias who found uh and and
died from a cardiomyopathy. Then there's uh, there's acquired problems, you know,
like where you have inflammation of the heart muscle, car myocarditis. Uh,
those type of things you can have autoimmune like Kawasaki's disease. Yeah,
I mean, are these things not as uncommon as he's saying. You're saying
they're like it's not uncommon. Yeah. One thing, like he said,
get an EKG and a kid. Yeah, who's going to do a kid?
Nobody? I need an EKG before I have sex. If my doctor
my heart was strong enough for sex, he told me only if I watch
it on TV. He put a mirror up in the operating Well, my
girlfriend love to watch yourself laughs. So yeah, who's who's doing engaging a
teenager? That's a That's a great point because how would you know until the
unexpected happens. That's not part of like a routine physical you like, no,
you bring your kids to I'm trying to think because I'm you know,
at my age now, they do the EKG and I always I always brag
that they set off the alarms because I think my heartreak gets down to forty
four or whatever and the alarm goes up. But that I mean, you're
talking about somebody who presents, at least on first exam as a high level
athlete, right, I think he I think this. I think Bronnie James
was ranked by ESPN as the twentieth best coming out of high school. UH
certainly projected to play in the NBA lebron James has said he wanted to have
that Ken Griffey Junior senior moment where he plays with his kid. So they're
talking, what you gotta do one and done? Yeah? Yeah, so
I mean what we do a year or two? Maybe? I mean,
I don't know how he's gotta be. I mean, he's gotta be really
good to be a lottery pick to do that. But yeah, I mean
yeah, I mean, if you're top twenty coming out of high school,
doesn't I mean, you're right because anything can happen. But well, whoever
picks him, Dandy's gonna go there, So you're gonna bubble your revenue.
So if you're the you gotta be the Lakers. Well, the Pelicans,
I mean, if they Lebron's gonna go at least three years, Zion's gonna
stick around. The championship can totally change the fortunes of a city. You
know that, you know seriously? Yeah, I mean look at what happened
with Cleveland for all those years. Oh yeah, how many lottery picks they
they won? Three? Yeah, they had Lebron, then they had Kyrie,
then they had Anthony Bennett, who I mean, they whiff. But
like, there was nobody in that draft until Janift, and he was a
project. Nobody knew he was gonna be the man. Can you recover and
play again? Yeah? He should be. He should be able to us.
There's not like major like heart damage like, but I mean I would
think, well, you're always afraid that it's going to happen again. Yeah,
I just think the Bills player. Yeah, you know he's coming back.
But like what you're saying, like you're saying like, oh, you
know that first hit, Well that first hit, what's gonna it's gonna happen?
Yeah, I know everybody's gonna you know, yeah, oh we don't
have the audio again. Hang on, chords are missing, everything's all.
See what happens when people have heart issues, Yes, we lose track of
everything. I remember a few years ago, probably within the past ten years,
the BIGGES thing was a dehydration for football players. Cou that well,
Corey Stringers, like what changed everything in the NFL when he was like two
thousand and one, he died, you know, at training camp practicing they
cooked his brain. His temperature was like one oh five. Yeah, and
now he just goes back out to practice and they realize, Okay, we
got a situation here, and they read the whole protocol like right now they've
put together like a kiddie pool every year at Buffalo Bill's camp. I'm not
joking with ice in it and everything. In case a player, you know,
is overheated, they go take a dip in the kiddie I mean Friday.
Now, that's part of the reason why McDermott does the practices at nine
or nine fifteen in the morning. I think. I think on the tickets
it says it starts at nine thirty on Stars and Night No. So yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, says I think on the ticket this says
nine thirty. But they actually started a little earlier. He started like nineteen.
Yeah. Oh, it is nine forty five, I think. Okay,
So I thought Greg said he always goes about fifty early, So it's
either nine thirty. I would, My point being get there as early as
you can. I don't know what time they open. I think they open
at eight for people to start filing in there. Yeah, because they want
people to shop in that big it's all they funnel everybody into that huge store.
They learn from Disney. Baby, that's the way you do it.
Uh. What happens during cardiac arrest? I guess that's that's kind of I
mean, the heart stops or what what what happens? We? I mean,
there's you could go to like a card cardiac rhythm or earthmia where you're
just not like you have a FIB. Yeah yeah, thanks for noticing.
Yeah yeah, well I'm in an off again relationship with a FIB right now.
My sister died of an arrhythmia. Yeah, and that's how we figured
out's why i started having EKGs and echo cardiograms. I'm probably an expert.
So you your heart can go into a rhythm where it's just you're not pumping
blood right, You're it's just like you know, a flutter. Yeah,
it's just like it's like pulsating. You're like really softly and not really like
pumping blood through your body. So then blood's not getting to where needs go
when you're just thanks visor, that's a lot of times that can be.
That's when you're you're shocking people. Do Yeah, that's when because like when
you if you're watching like a movie or TV and you're like, oh,
it's a flat line, let's get the paddles. No, that doesn't do
anything now. Oh no, Now you need a rhythm. So you need
a rhythm to bring it to bring it back to normal, So you're shocking
the heart to try to get it back to a regular rhythm where if you're
a flat land, your heart's not doing anything. It's it's not pumping,
it's not moving nothing. That's why I think you know they're given you know
that you're given you app and effort and you're given you know, after p
and all this other stuff through the ivy and then you're you're you're you're doing
chess compressions to circulate that um and that's also you know, you're breathing for
them. You're trying to keep auction into the brain. So basically your heart's
not pumping, you're not getting any oxygen of the brain, your body.
You know, you end up. Now the old CPR has changed from when
I was a boy scout to today's CPR, right like it used to be
one, two, three, four, and then you're blow into the mouth
to make sure they're getting some action. Let's change. Yeah, So the
main thing is now is compressions. So if you show up to a scene
anybody, if you don't even know CPR, you don't have to. You
don't have you're not doing mouth anymore, at least start compressions. Yeah,
and that's pumping what auction is left in your system around so you don't go
brain dead. So you don't want to give mouth to mouth at all.
I mean you can't know you can if you know what you're doing, but
you want to at least do compressions. So there's still the same system that
you're doing. Is it's it's uh thirty thirty thirty that sounds like an idiot
here, thirty to two. So you do thirty compressions and two breaths,
and then you go back thirty and you do thirty more. And when you
if you have two people, it's like fifteen to fifteen to one. Okay,
I'm like that, so that you would switch it off. Yeah,
and then after I have two minutes of doing like compressions, usually like somebody
comes, somebody else comes in, Hey, you know, e MS comes
and somebody else takes over compressions because it gets exhausting. Yeah, sometimes this
stuff is congenital. Yeah, right, you could have you can have like
a hole in your heart, right, you know about it? Yeah,
and then you know, just think you have I have. I had order
Cleikue, but they said hasn't gotten any when his ex wife left the league.
Yeah, it's like a hole is harty and a hole in his heart
and he's all good. It was only filled by my wife. Yeah,
so there's no concern like this could be something that is even uh, something
in the family. Siblings could have it. Maybe, I mean it could
be. I don't You don't know until you start doing running tests. Would
you recommend like having everybody checked, then I probably would. Yeah. If
you're if you're you know your kids, one of your kids is having something
wrong something. The question that I think is going to start popping up,
and I'll ask you if you've seen things, is this anyway can be linked
to the COVID vaccine? And we don't know in any way if this kid
had it or didn't have it. But I mean there's people who will you
know, and there's all these things that that seem to be I can't tell
if they're conspiracy theory stuff or not. I know of someone through someone else
that has paralysis of the arms. They live, you know, in a
city about ninety miles north or west of here, excuse me, and they
can't move their arms and the only thing doctors can attribute it to is possibly
a side effect to the vaccine, and I don't I don't know. I
mean, and then you're hearing different things with doctors. Girl told me she
couldn't give me head because of COVID. I'm like, oh wait a minute,
let me let mean google this. It's funny. NBA Care still has
a commercial. I can't believe they haven't taken it down yet, right they
have a commercial where they have Bill Russell and other athletes explained to them why
they need to get vaccinated. Well, Bill Russell died shortly after tape of
this and it's still going now. I'm not saying, like I think it
needs to at least be examined. I'm not saying it did or didn't.
I'm saying it needs to at least be investigated. I don't know. I
mean for some people like that. Are there people coming in John that you
see with things that are unexplained or that you hear in the medical community or
is that conspiracy? I can't I haven't seen anything personally, but you know
it could there could be something. Because they kind of rushed it through,
they kind of got it out there pretty quickly. And then I'm thankful for
that because we don't have to wear a mask anymore right in hospital even,
yeah, which is great. And I was like, oh, there's a
lot of people that do. Yeah, picking up in the Uber, they
come out, they get the mask on, mask in then just I don't
say anything. I mean respect there, absolutely, like whatever you're going to
be comfortable with, right, I don't get I feel sorry that people are
so scared, but that's just my feeling. You want to do it,
do it right, I'm not hurting anybody America. Do it. I might
go back to wearing a mask in a couple of weeks. I'm supposed going
to cruise in the end of August, so I don't want to get sick.
Yeah, you know, it's still floating around there, still people,
still people coming in and to the hospital with COVID, though numbers are way
way down. But the one thing that got me though, after all this
time, weren't masks oral hygiene did not get fitted. Always think that people
be like, you have to change going on at least oh yeah, I
know, work for a couple hours, you get them what they don't.
I don't remember any hearing anything like that on the news, but I was
driving around ubering during uber and a lot of people were doctors, nurses,
a couple of taco bell workers, but a lot of them were home healthcares
and nurses. And they're like, you know that mask isn't working more than
two hours. You have to switch. I'm like, oh no, I
didn't. Yeah, if it's humid, if you're get any water on it,
you should have a pack in here changing every two hours. I'm like,
I haven't seen this on the news. There like, yeah, we
know you seen brown spots or stuffing yaking through the mask. It's like,
oh day, anytime I conference knees, I'm gonna right, absolutely, yeah,
Well I don't just just a very strange thing with young brownie there.
And I don't know anyone fairly young, and I'll say fairly young, like
in their forty Actually I did. I knew a guy and it had to
be back in the seventies. I'm gonna say, uh, And he smoked
and drank and I think a forty two or forty three had a heart attack
and that was it. And it's not I guess that's not un common or
unheard of, but it seems like I don't know many people in my age
group that i'd ever had that. Yeah, I think it's like almost we
see less and less, yet at the same time we're moral beasts as a
country than we've ever Well, I'll tell you working in the bar. Yeah,
now that I'm fifty two, in the past five years, you start
hearing, oh he had a hearttach. Oh she had a stroke, Oh
he had a heartach. But you've served these people for ten years, right,
and they're outside smoking or they're smoking in the bar, they're doing shots.
They're like, oh, it makes sense, they're sugar and you know
a couple of older people like, yeah, we've been waiting for it for
years. Night. You know, he's sixty seven, he's still doing blow
in the parking lot with you know, we're just waiting for him and a
little too. You know that the dead cool uh lottery? You know what
that is? Yes, well, we used to do one on the on
the old radio show. We had a death draft. We drafted people.
We went around the NFL draft and when we had categories, you had celebrities,
local celebrities, and we had family members so we could draft each other's
family. I could do family like we had to grandmother, my grandmother.
He couldn't take your own family. It's like inside inside, now push your
grandma. Now you're minus seven. All of a sudden, grandma has an
accident of Thanksgiving. You win the thousand dollar pool. Not my fault.
That's some nice yuld you work sending cookies to somebody's family's got diabetes. Let's
give you some cookies there. Yeah, so we did do that. Did
you have one at the bar people? No? I was at work in
the blue room and there was a dart league and they told me about the
dead pool, and I'm like, what is that? Like? We have
all these categories you can uh pick from politicians, movie stars uh um,
rock stars um oh, I shoot your saying. So there was that.
Those were the categories. I got you and you pick. You picked your
own. Yeah, we did a draft where we actually went around and drafted
our own, like just like the NFL. It's amazing what people bet on
sure anything and everything. I mean, it's sort of fun. As long
as you don't it's morbid. But look, we're all gonna die. And
if you kind of can't, it's a rumor. Some people seem to defy
that, right wood. I don't know. They're usually a holes. Yeah,
yeah, they live forever. Yes, are they drinking smoking for their
whole life? Oh. I get a cousin whose grandmother, like you be
as you be, medical centers studying her body because she she lived through ninety
years old. She smoked pall malls unfiltered, and she didn't die of cancer.
She just died one day. It's a bold day. They no heart
disease, no lung cancer. They're fascinating. So they want to figure out
why, Well, your body gets used to something. Yeah, that's it.
And then if you throw monkey wrench in it, I mean through COVID,
Well that's where you always had. They've gotten There was two things open,
Wegmans in liquor stores. Yeah, yeah, you can't. A ton
of people drink. It's an epidemic and we're very by. We got to
keep the liquor stores up. Well, absolutely, mark him at a job,
right, If you take that away from people, then you're gonna have
a real problem like prohibition. Well, it's always in the times of recession
and stuff. The things that the recession proof is the liquor store. That's
where people will go. But to your point, you're right, this is
the person who suddenly gets healthy. Right, all of a sudden, they're
working out and they're on the treadmill and they haven't been and they didn't.
I don't know if it's easing your way back in or if it's just get
but I know, like the people who did hero Heroin wut the chip,
the guys who would chip just to make them seals feel a little balanced.
Your body kind of compensates for that. The body is an amazing thing because
you can really push it to limits. I think a lot of times we
underestimate what we're capable of, you know. Yeah, I mean we see
all these like these old people, they're smoking and drink all their lives,
and all of a sudden, the doctor tells them, now you need to
you need to quit doing that. You need to eat better, or you
need to like you're ninety two years old, eat drinks ever you want.
Yeah, but it's clearly working. Yeah. But then they oh, well
maybe I shouldn't they stopped smoking or they stopped drinking, they start eating health
and they're dead like in a week. Yeah, yeah, you see it.
It's like it's like, just let them do right. If they're ninety
two, you might as well just stay doing what you were doing, whatever
you want to do, have some fun. I made a deal with my
wife. I said, look, I've never smoked in my life, but
when I turn eighty, if I make it that far and start smoking picking
up the crack pipe, well not that far. We'll take a moment when
we come back. I want to play you a piece of audio. I
think it came from England talking about bodybuilders and how they should have a new
category of bodybuilders, and I agree to come on, I was working out,
pull up them do it now and the build moranghaw. I think this
h I think these people are very serious about it. We'll get to that

I wanted to play this for you guys because it came up about obese people.
Is it forty percent of the US population? I thought I saw that
stat I mean, it's probably easy to think at least, but this is
something I can look at the room caught this. Oh, I got nothing
to talk about. I'm dropping weight though I'm down, Like, congratulations,
what are you doing? I'm doing I'm doing I'm doing the shots. You
are weekly shots, and I'm been working out week ever, like three four
times and you've lost that much weight with the help of ozempic. Now ozembic
if you do nothing, what is a guarantee like fifteen it's something like fifteen
twenty percent of your body weight or something like that. Okay, um,
working out, it's helping a lot. Yeah, I'm actually using like a
generic version of its. Actually I drawed up myself. Yeah, like there're
ozempic. It comes and pens the pre filled and yes, you just pushed
the button and it shoots itself in. But that stuffs um. Without insurance,
Yeah, it's like eighteen hundred dollars seven hundred and fifty bucks an my
wife, Yes, eighteen hundred dollars a month, but they get you.
You can get a coupon for five hundred dollars off. Okay, well twelve
fifty. Then there's probably what tele of health that I can get somebody.
So I know I know something. I know physicians, assistants and nps that
they actually have a business. It's just a bad thing to be doing.
Like a lot of people get like, I get nervous about putting something in
your body, so because I hear if you come off it, it's really
hard to have. So ozempic it's used for like diabetes. It's also used
for like a certain cardiac conditions. So it's supposed to help help your heart
work better. Yeah, like function better in that way. And so some
people are seeing people are seeing like heart problems now because they're they're on it,
and they have had like an underlying condition they didn't know about it.
Yeah, kidneys too, Yeah, renal failures big with this. Okay,
So as a person in the medical community they're doing it, you feel like
it's fine. Yeah, I mean there's there's risks whatever risk Yeah, yeah,
you take too much Thailand or too much tribue profen here, Yeah,
you're gonna Yeah have you heard of have you heard zero calorios? So basically
just it makes you feel fuller long. So I had a half of what
I normally would eat. Yeah, and I feel full, And then you
know, so I'm not eating as much. I just feel full. So
I did a diet that many years ago that was designed for people with diabetes.
That's the original plan of it. And in the beginning, for forty
days, I ate five hundred calories a day. I felt great, and
I lost like forty pounds, right, I got down to one ninety for
me, it almost looked emaciated. Over the years, I put that back
and then I went up even higher. Now not not just over time,
Right, we're talking like all the shit that's gone on my life and all
the stuff I ate your eyes to your next level of bloat. Yeah,
yeah, So I was pushing two thirty two thirty five and it was grossing
me out, Like I was getting grossed out. So now I'm just choking
seven o'clock this morning. So I didn't. Uh, So I downloaded an
app because I go I need structure and something that makes me accountable. And
there was always this thing. Over the years, I've done a variety diets,
Like when I got married, I got down to one ninety. My
mother in law was weight watchers who worked for weight watchers, So I did
weight watchers and I lost the weight. Now I'm doing um intermittent fasting through
this app. But I've even gone on to find like their healthy recipes and
stuff, and I went down. But then on the weekend I drank.
I think I had a gummy and I ate an entire box of wheat things.
So that didn't necessarily judge me. Yeah, well, but you're the
only person in the room. That's the funniest part. You're looking in the
mirror. I found my sweet spot with that. I found that the five
milligram is fucking perfect. It's like gummy. Oh, it's perfect. A
cheese with the ten milligrams. Like all of a sudden, you're like,
I feel like I get stupid and I'm almost but I regulate. I don't
drink as much. Oh those gummies. I thought you've been like gummy bears
CBD, You're not even CBD. I'm talking TC. Yeah. So I
got it and it's fucking awesome. I mean I I that's how I did
the whole Joey Garl like fucking high crazy. Yeah. So yeah it could
have been. There was some like oh I know, but the uh I
found like this stuff is has helped and now I'm eating better, but I'm
eating something that I think is almost hurting me. I have not been a
Greek yogurt Guy and I. One of the recipes goes Greek yogurt with berries
and granola. So I buy that stuff. I almost feel like a little
after I eat it, like a little my stomach feels a little distended.
Grapes in there. You don't want to granola? Cut off no grapes and
half the granolia, the fact blueberries and and the yogurt. Fine, do
get rid of Granola's like it was like one of those like fat Guy health
foods, let's be love granola. Well, that's Kevin granola. You need
to come out with your own granola came out. You need your own fucking
granola. That would be They make it now. It's it's popcorn with many
m and m's and chocolate drizzle. That sounds delicious because I love like I
used to do m and m's and almonds. They've got all and I would
put salt on there because it was that salt sweet and that it was all
God, it was with fruity pebbles in it. They got sinnaments, crunch
fun fetty, and we wonder why we're fat. Yeah, listen to this
though, and tell me what your thoughts. I think that's just good.
The only reason people admire body builders who have built their body with muscle and
not a beast people who have built their body with eating huge amounts of food
is because there's a prejudice against fat people, and so bodybuilding could benefit from
including the non competitive display of fat bodies alongside. Must I agree with all
the against the actual fuck? Can you imagine? Could you imagine talk about
rolling in the deep the body if that would come out? Yeah? Is
it a stigma? I guess it is. But you look. You don't
look at anybody who has lost weight and then put weight back on. You
can't look in the mirror and go fucking looking good. You can't someone who
does not tend. But the one that sat here last night sits here and
tells it all time. Because I was down, I looked great, and
now I don't feel like good right because I put it back out right And
there is something about it where you just feel sluggish and all that. Are
you feeling more energetic? But you lost at thirty five pounds? Oh I
definitely, Yeah, joints don't hurt as much. Yeah, more energy?
And what kind of exercise you weightlifting is gonna mostly weights, a little bit
of cardio, but now not a lot. Like usually when I'm i'm lifting,
in between exercise, I'll walk around the why just to keep the heart
rate going and go to the next exercise. Ladies they're like, where's the
pool that was up in the I don't know. I just I've been trying.
I've been down, I've dropped. I'm in the low two twenties now,
so it's been about two and a half. Have you ever been the
Midtown Athleta Club? Yes, okay, I won't go there anymore. Yeah,
neither will lie. Not that I could have been. I'm for the
West Side. I'm not allowed. It's like it's like it's like Doue Central,
but you walk in there and they hand you a mop. But I
had a friend of mine bring me there a few times, and every time
I wrapped up, I would go downstairs and to be these women who just
got out of a class and they're drinking wine. Yeah, I'm like,
what's the purpose? Wow, that's as social Danny, and it's one and
sometimes isn't that bad? It's it's a show. You're burned it off?
They put the bad Hey, how many people have done a Planet fitness and
getting pizza and a handful. That's worse. Yeah, that's worse too.
That's worse than the wine. And it is sometimes embody where I'll do the
boxing. Instruct boxing, they do bar to bar, so you do bar
exercises and then you go to a bar afterwards there's a happy hour. Yeah,
bar to bar drink. Now nobody there is like outrageous. Yes,
it's no carb, right, I mean that's what are you trying to make?
What are you judging down there? John? Are you judge? You
just made that face. But still they drink vodka. There's still there's still
car. Oh you call turns to the carb. So it's that's an interesting
thing because I think there is that. I don't want to call it a
myth, but it must be less carb. It is lower, right,
I don't know what it is like one ounce of alcohol converts to like one
can of beer. Yes, that's that is true. They do show you
that when we were talking like DWY but but for like caloric intake too,
the calories because the alcohol I think breaks down into into carbohydrates. So it's
the same like drinking like vodka voda. But the weird okay, so it
must be the calories and beer because right, because we always called it like
a beer belly. Yeah, that kind of. And then they're thinking of
like Greg, who's lean as shit. I can get the vodka out,
we can toss this out. No good, Well Greg doesn't drink anything brown,
he says, yeah, he doesn't, which means beer, whiskey,
brandy, And it's it's from the health perspective, how bad is the brown
brown liquor? Uh? So I just I don't. I don't drink.
I drink vodka, or I'll drink tequila. Tequila. Tequila is supposed to
be almost I mean, if you're gonna what I was gonna, you're gonna
say it's a stimula. But it's not. It's not enough. It's a
mess. If they say it okay, good, okay, please poke holes
in these things because I really don't know. But I buy all this shit
because it's great and I looked it up on the Oh it's not really,
they just say it is, yes, So oh, I don't know.
If it hits you differently, maybe and it just you know, you act
stupider. It's still funnier, for sure. Tequila. Zequila makes your clothes
fall off. Isn't that a song? I think that is a song.
It is countryside. I think that is a country song. I'm offended by
that one too. Everybody's offended by everything these days. Yeah, I was
offended by that report. You give up. Bronnie James said, oh,
it's an African American men. See even health is racist now, Billy,
Well, but the problem is, like there are certain things like you know,
you know, if you are of whatever makeup you're you're more prone to
Yeah. Yeah, yes, exactly, we're prone to alcoholism. I would
think I at least at least that was the excuse I was told for about
my family. I don't know African Americans. I think diabetes hypertension. Yeah.
Um, there's there's actually like um equations. So you're looking at like
kenney kidney function. Yeah, so there there's like the GFR. So your
kidney function, one of your kidney functions, it's white and black. Yeah,
they actually have it listed. So ethnicity is yeah, yeah, so
it calculates things different. I haven't. I have an interesting question then if
you went if we had Africans from Africa, is this a dietary thing that's
causing this stuff? Do you understand what I'm saying? Like in Africa,
I don't know that they're eating as many processed food prop may not be available
in certain parts of Africa, right, So if we're gonna or or even
yeah, or food at all, or even if you go to but even
if you go to Europe, right, Uh, like people walk a lot
more and maybe they eat less and or they're eating in a different style that
where the portions here are so huge. Are we as Americans just killing ourselves
as the fucking food? Yeah, of course. I mean so when we
say like this is you know African Americans are prone to this? Is that
because they're here in American And then part of the part of the identity that's
the problem is the American, not the African. Do you know what I
understand it? Yeah, it could be, I'm I don't know. I'm
sure. Diet, yeah, is a big part of diets, a huge
part of it. And well diet in terms of what's available in America.
And if you look at certain I mean, you know urban deserts that we
hear here about food Africa. You got to chase your food down some exercise.
Well, they've been studies about how like like when when they talk about
Africans when they die, their teeth are straight and there's no cavities, okay,
and a lot of like we we've talked about it on the show with
with your Dennists friend there and he said, oh yeah, yeah, Like
like he goes, like, you know, that's you're supposed to be born
with straight teeth, and your teeth come and your baby teeth come out,
your regular teeth come in because you're supposed to eat like you're you know,
hunting for your food all the time instead of having a processed gerber. He
goes, you can blame gerber and you can blame the American diet for cavities
and bad teeth, yeah, because because in Africa they don't have that problem.
Now, they don't have a lot of other things too, right,
So it's you know, it's back and forth, but I'm sure that they
don't have the same health problems that we do over with everybody. For your
problem, do you look at parts of Latin America or Brazil and all that
too, Yeah, Like people say Brazil has some of the most beautiful people,
and I go, part of that could be diet too or what do
we say, the Mediterranean diet it's supposed to be so good, and that's
where a lot of people live, you know, what to one hundred in
Japan, like Japan and Japan like like okay now or something. Yeah,
that's like so many like but I think over one hundred years old. I
think a lot of that's diets. We're saying it's diet stuff. We come
back here and go, well, you know, your ethnicity, you're prone
to maybe not maybe it's the American part of our ethnicity that's fucking us all
up. Yeah, the Golden Arches. But you know what, it's so
damn good it is, you know. And some days those fries are made
out of the best potatoes in America. They get first pick. Yeah,
they're the Lebron James of potatoes. My aunt, my aunt, my uncle's
wife grew up in Wisconsin on a farm and her dad had a potato contract
with McDonald's. He did, and then he and then and when her brother
took over, they got a pea contract with Delmonti. And those were farmers
that were like, you know, making some money, but you're right,
that's the best. But the French fries I remember going up into a cardiac
wing and some old guy who had been there it was now volunteering and uh
my wife at the time was in and now for just some stuff. And
he said to me, as I'm walking out, and stay away from French
fries, young fella, that's the devil. And you know, I just
have to get those tots from Uh. Yes for bTB baby also on a
Yeah, that is good stuff. All right, we'll take a moment.
There was a protest today and again since you're here, John, it has
to do with the medical community to a certain extent. Kevin actually saw this
in person, and I don't know what I would. I don't know.
It's some people think it's inhumane and then some people, you know later on
in life, go what is that? So we'll we'll get into that and
just this there's an ant eater protest kind of what it is. Oh Leo

com. Why are you waiting for? It's cool the circumcision song, and
it's encouraging man in Africa to get circumcised. Well, it's supposed to be
healthier for you. It's cleaner for you. Yeah, and in the Old
Testament, man, they made a big deal about it. You you needed
to get circumcised. So Kevin's driving today and he sends me a text saying
that there's a protest and then sends me a link to a website, which
I did not because it was through my phone and then all these people I
had people in and autim all day. Uh, and I didn't get a
chance to look at it. But the uh, they were protesting the fact
that their circumcision happening. Yes, So these guys don't want you to be
certain. They do not want you to be circumcised. Apparently I was looking
through that article. There they are a group. I just lost it here.
They're a group from They've been all over the United States, Northeastian,
Rhode Island, Massachusetts. But there their message is that foreskin is a healthy,
valuable part that belongs solely and entirely to the child for life. Is
that the name of the group? Maybe something? Now, I don't know.
I know people who didn't have their kids circumcised, and I used to
refer to the kid as trunk. But but the thing is, like you
now, I remember like the friend of mine in the high school. It
wasn't circumcised, and it was weird because everybody else you know, what's wrong
with you? Yeah? Yeah, everything it was strange. Is that the
drip? But that's that's a healthier it's healthier to be circumcised, yes,
correct, John um from a metal yes and no, yes and no.
Okay. So it's if you have good hygiene, yeah, and you're you're
perfectly fine there. You have to take care of it differently. You have
to you know, pull it back and watch it. Yeah. So as
a parent, if your kid's not a circumcise, you gotta do that.
Yeah, you gotta, you gotta pulling your kids foreskin back and clean it
in the bath. Yeah, and then you got to teach them how to
do that. Right, So if you don't do that, then you get
to you know, you get to cheese the famunda. But right, so
then in this thing there even is it possible too that things can get trapped
in there? Or this just sounds um no, But I used to listen.
That's how I snuck cooke across the board. Um nice to listen to
Howard Stern and one of the guys Sell used to play a game What's in
my pouch? And he was uncircumcised. He would so he would stick something
in there. Then somebody would have to feel it to guess what's in his
pouch. That's funny now, but that is funny. But this whole thing
that I was just playing, and it was a terrible song, and I
apologize to everybody, but it was it was to encourage and they're outside like
a syphilis clinic in Africa. I encourage you people to get circumcising. Is
it possibly that even if you think you're cleaning it properly, maybe you're not
fully cleaning it properly, you know. I guess I got to rinse it
too, you know, yeah, because soap, I mean you're cleaning it
and the soap. You know, you don't rinse it off properly, right,
you could have like UTIs and stuff. Yeah, I mean, like
it's gonna trap moisture. Um, So I'm circumcised. My brother is not
my older brother who he came from Vietnam, he's not Okay growing apples like
your parents didn't have him circumcise over there. No, So my dad brought
him him and my mom over back in seventy two, okay, like after
my my dad was done with his uh deployment. Yeah, so he had
again went back and forth, you know, to Vietnam to America, Vietnam
just to get them back here because her my my mom's first husband died in
the war. Okay, so and so and her family allowed her to remarriy
like you know, oh yes, go to America with Yeah, and so
that's not is that your half brother half brother? Yeah yeah yeah, and
the half that is not you is is uncircumcised. Yeah, I got it.
Okay, there's a news story and better than this. If you want
to hit the button. I can see what they say. Is this a
local news story or is this their website the Massachusetts area? Okay, because
I don't understand all the things. I mean, there's lots of protests these
days, lots of protests. I guess you're bringing awareness of a certain kind.
But in the end, it's it's a personal choice. They're they're dressed
in all they were dressed in all white. Yeah, white cowboy hats,
white shirts, white pants, white everything. Yeah, there was no hood,
but we want you to have them. But I had all three of
my guys circumcised. The boys. It just almost because I was and it
would just be normal. And then most people in the locker room were and
again from a cleon clelonesshuttles are chanced. Yes, right, well, I
think it's automatic. Lets the parents say no rights because the doctor's like yeah,
yeah. The articles are saying most doctors are pushing for it to be
done, and believe that you want this to happen, like sooner before the
kid knows what's going on. You want this eight year old going. I
knew a kid in high school who was Greek and his parents didn't believe in
it, but he kept getting make fun of in the shower at school,
so he made it so his parents. He begged his parents to be circumcised.
Says the worst decision he ever made is an older kid. Yeah it
is, yeah, yeah, the worst right. Yeah. They got to
keep it though, Is that there, Kevin? Let's see what they say.
Let's see who this I don't know. The founder of day Men,
I first protested against infant circumcision in northern California in nineteen eighty and nineteen eighty
one. I went to college in the late sixties, and we were the
protest generation. We protested for civil rights, We protested against the Vietnam War,
we protested against the draft and the day rights. And in the early
seventies, when I became sexually active and noticed strange sensations that I suffered after
good sex, I began to look into I began to look into circumcision.
One thing led to another end with strange sensations negatively affecting metations after sex particularly,
and then I realized learned what the foreskin is during sex itself. We
are the bloodstained Men. We are twenty day tour of the southwestern US,
and we're spreading foreskin awareness, because it should be your choice how much of
your penis you get to keep. Nobody should be tempering with the genitals of
children, but I don't think it's done in a malicious way. Kept playing
bloody stains in their juncle region on their white pants, Okay, that's fine.
Yeah, so this is to raise awareness as to but again we go
from a health perspective. Most doctors would tell you it's probably better. And
little boys do not like to take baths and things, and so that's gonna
be a problem in terms of cleaning and stuff like that today. And there's
the last time you shower. Yeah, so it's like dad, it's siber
Yeah, I mean to think. So I don't understand as he's peeing in
the backyard in the bush, So I would think too, like you got
a better chance. Let me just put this really graphically for a moment,
forgive me. Do you get a better chance of being blown if you're circumcised,
because that's gonna look weird. Yes, don studies have shown you think.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know. Afterwards, they all went
to the long hornsteadhouse. I don't know, it's I don't know much about
this, but they were in Rochester protesting, and there you go till thirteen.
It's like, oh, this is just down this tree. But that's
a lot of money and effort and time to go around, and I don't
know what good it is doing. Yeah, I've known. I've had patience
that when they're older, they've come in and gotten circumstanscience because because they're they're
sick, sick of like girls gone yeah said yeah, um, And a
lot of them end up with complications, you know, because you're just it's
tougher to do it when you're old, are you right? Right? It's
like getting your tonsils out when you're older. They say, like you're asking
that, you're actually looking for a lot of health risks if you get your
tonsils out beyond twelve years old. All right, Since we're sort of in
this vein, so to speak, the main vein UM, somebody told me
that they talked to someone who worked in an emergency room. They asked me,
who's on the podcast tonight and I said, uh, John, the
nurse is coming in and we talked to John before it. They said,
oh, I got a friend who is working in UM an emergency room.
And this was down in Wayne County, And they said, uh, seeing
a lot over the weekend, a lot of dear antlers, no STDs coming
in, like problems complications from STDs. Randy's been all over talent them.
Yeah, it's like it's strange. I went, really, do people come
into an emergency room with us? It seems like something I would go to
urgent care for, not emergency. Yeah, unless it's I guess it's really
bad when you're kind of looking looking through see who's in the emergency room,
just to see and like, oh, how many patients are down there?
You know, what are we going to get tonight? Yeah? You see
like oh, vaginal leaking or you know, you know, peanut pain.
Yeah, like what you know, like go to your primary doctor, go
to plan parent. Hum. Right, But if it's so bad on a
weekend, I don't know. Yeah, I mean urg urgine cares are good
for certain things, yep. Other things they're gonna be like, oh you
need to go to the emergency room or go to your doctor. Yeah,
you know certain things. You know, they'll do do stuff for you about
a lot of stuff. Because are we seeing a rise in certain stvs or
are we seeing a rise in certain segments of the population. I keep reading
and hearing more and more now, even a lot of the elder elderly people.
And I blame viagra. Yeah, because once viagra comes around, and
I don't know if the and and maybe even hormone therapy for women, I
don't know, but yeah, because yeah, with the you know, because
before you know, guys like can't get it up. Oh well no,
it's like, hey, you're in your nineteen you're still pounding away. You
know, you're hanging the lufa. Can you what about this one? I've
seen this video recently where there's a guys in the doctor's office and something with
his wrist or his leg or something, and he watches that he's taking a
video of the doctor googling how to wrap the ankle? Is that a thing?
Doctors do that to make sure they're doing it right? Because but you
really shouldn't do it in front of the patient, you know, step out
of the room. It's like, doctor Hartman, how do I wrap an
ankle? Yeah? You know, lin leave the room. I gotta tell
you that, Hey, this AI because everybody fears AI. I go,
I'm starting to fucking love AI. I saw some since Kevin said, hey,
Siri, I'm driving the other day and I see Pewanda on board.
I'm like, what is a Pawanda? It was like a bumper seer.
So I think that's what it was. So I go, hey, seventh
grade. Huh I did it in seventh grade. I go, hey,
hey, Siri. It turns out it was like a Jedi knight or something
like. I fucking heard padawan, that's what it was. I had no
idea what it was. I had no idea. Is that what it is?
Pad apprentice? Yes? Yeah, so I had I asked, hey,
sirian series, it's a young Jedi knight. You know, like,
all right, get enough? Well I shouldn't I just virgin? But they
so doctors sometimes do that? Sure? Why not? Yeah? You got
a lot going on? You're moving fast, yeah, I mean a lot
of patience. I've had to do it a couple of times. You're like,
wait, what what what are we doing here? Yeah? Is there
you leave the room. Well, when you're an emergency room doctor or nurse,
you're seeing anything from a broken ankle to I don't know, yeah,
or heart attack potentially, or car accidents and you know, any number of
things. Yeah. Then then you know, if you're at a trauma center,
you got gunshots, stabbings. You know, do they ever make you
go back for any kind of training as nurses or doctors? Well, we
do. We do CPR, yeah every year. Um, you're supposed to
do like a CEUs, You're supposed to do continuing education. Okay, Um,
that's what I mean, supposed to keep up with certain amount of things.
Um, certain certain things in the medical community certainly have gotten better due
to technology and that sort of thing. And I would think that you got
it once in a while, just get a refresher on certainly, and then
just just being like on your unit. You're you're continuing education all the time.
Everything's a changing, like oh there's new policies, there's new ways to
do this or new they we're not doing this anymore, you know. Just
like we were talking earlier, CPR is even different. You know, yeah,
right last week give us oral temperatures. This week it's reckless. So
are you doing emergency No, I'm I'm on a medical surgical floor, orthopedics.
So but I have worked in the emergency room just like they float me
down there and it's it's crazy. Yeah, you know, it's it's packed.
There's people coming in for things you shouldn't be going into the emergency room
for our hospital is still short staff. Oh yeah yeah. I mean when
you say, who the hell I piss off that I gotta done an emergency?
Yeah pretty much. But um like now, I was just reading that
our GH it might be striking. Their nurses might be striking. Did they
try to unionize? They are? They are unionized. So they are union.
They've been in negotiations since Blacks October. Okay, um for their union.
Um so I was just reading about it just the other day that they're
they're possibly they're going to go on strike because they can't come to an agreement.
So at RGH, the nurse nurse to patient ratio is ridiculous. I
know a lot of travelers that I've worked with have gone back there and you're
talking like ten twelve patients a piece a piece. You know, your on
your twelve hour shift, right, That's that's crazy. Yeah, you know,
you just think you got twelve people you got to see. You gotta
pass med, you gotta assess. You know, you're doing makes like you're
supposed to do a head to assessment check and everything, you know, listening
your lungs, your heart everything. If they have a dressing, you got
to change the dressing, if you know, if if they're some little old
lady or old man that's got a pee every half hour, so you know,
and then you need to have a good bedside manner through all this.
Oh yeah, and you gotta you know, then you know, if if
the patient's crazy, if you have a crazy patient, you have an aggressive
patient, you have some little little lady climb out of bed every ten minutes.
You know, it's like you're just pulled in every direction. If you
know, I the hospital I work at, and you know I have five
patients at the most. Okay, yeah, I can't imagine. You haven't
double that double now I have. When I worked at Strong years ago,
you know, we'd have eight and nine patients, and those those were like
fresh um post op patients, like after like basket or surgery or plastic surgery.
And you know that was tough enough. Yeah yeah, but most of
them were pretty sane, you know. But now you work like even my
my floor I'm on now, I got five patients, you know, three
four of those could be confused in trying to climb out of bed or trying
to hit you or throw something at you. This is are we like Saint
John Fisher has a nursing college, the university as a nursing college. Are
we seeing more of these programs? I think Roberts Wesley may have a nursing
college as well. There's it seems to be a few. I don't know
if Nazareth does. I would assume. I would assume you of are are
they graduating enough people going through these programs? Um? Because there's there's a
lot of people going into it. Yeah, there's a lot of people leaving
it. Yeah. Yeah, you know, do you feel unappreciated? Um?
Sometimes yeah, I would, I would think. I mean I asked
that knowing that. Yeah, I'm sure there's days you go it's unbelievable.
But on the other hand, there's got to be something really satisfying about it.
I feel like it takes a really special person because to me, the
nurse is does way more than the doctor, gets way less of the glory,
does a lot of the heavy lifting on on things. In terms of
pacing cares. You're saying, especially if it's twelve and then you know,
you wonder, uh, you know, my mom had surgery and she was
calling from nurses and then they're doing this, that and the other end.
I'm going, I like, I don't know, And there's gotta be nothing
that grosses you out. Uh yeah, not too much. Um, you
know, every now and then you'll get some smells that'll hit you in yeah
yeah, right, you know you get some of these uh, very large
people, yeah, with multiple roles, right, which is why you should
be looking at me about cleaning. Yeah, you know, like you got
to pull back the fold. You gotta pull back the circumcision. You know,
clean you clean under those folds because hold please, well you do you
have to call and help to lift up somebody's stomach. Have you ever had
somebody where the skin had almost attached? Do you understanding a fold attached to
each other so you're like pulling on a part, like there's there's there's stuff
in yeah, yeah, well there's cheese in there. You know. It's
like, oh you find that, you know, I find loose changed shut
you know you have found it folds of someone's human couch cushion, you found
their chage, Yeah, pieces of food. Thomas Jefferson's like, oh god,
so it's not a tumor. It was an eminem. We got it
that Jesus Keto dancer. You're good, one of the one of the worst.
I can tell this little story. We had this very large one.
She's probably a five hundred pounds. She comes in baby. We get her
over to the bad and you know, we're like where and she's like soiled,
like urine, feces everywhere. We're trying to clean her up. We're
washing her and one of our texts reaches down and starts pulling like this rag
and she's pulling this thing and it comes out and the smell of probably month
old urine hits everybody in the face and my eyes are watering. I'm like
gag. And it's one of the things I was like horrible. She's about
to throw it out, and he about to throw it in the garbage because
it was disgusting. And the lady goes, oh, don't throw that out.
I'm gonna rewash that and use that again. Oh what was it?
Was it a wash cloth? She was like a washcloth that she uses because
she can't see go to the bathroom, and you can't get to the bathroom.
She's just piece on the wash man. She just peas on it and
it helps, like if you at least get some kitty litter. Man.
Oh god, I'm like, I gotta so I go back to diet,
and I don't I have this fun You go back to diet after told you
no, diet, I wouldn't die in terms of what you need and no.
But I'm saying, like, that's that's mental illness. I mean,
you're you're talking. Um, I work home care too. Same thing.
You go into a patient's house, they're you know, four or five hundred
pounds. Do you go in there and you see a stack of pizza boxes?
Yeah, And they're like, oh, well, yeah, I've been
on a diet. I'm not eating as much as they normally do. Like
you're having three large pizzas instead of six's got that ten dollars? And then
now with right now with like like uber eats and all that, people,
you could you don't have to leave the house. By the way, man,
we have a talent scout from my six hundred pound life out front.
Would you want to sign this release? But here's the thing that I'm thinking
is if we think that diet right is part of the problem in terms of
just health. And I could I felt even mental clarity when I was on
that diet where I ate the five hundred calories and all this stuff. You
just how much of our diet affects even in our brain. And I do
wonder if people got on a healthier diet, would we have less of I
don't know. It sounds like a deep depression, but you know we feed
that depression with carbs and sugars and this. And I don't mean, I'm
not trying to pick on anybody. If that's a problem, mathematicitionifle problem,
but you know what I mean, Well, we're talking about people who haven't
left their house. He just told us about a lady that you know what
I mean, if she was peeing because she couldn't get to the bathroom.
Mant at certain point, certain toilets, you will not hold you. Yeah,
you know, I mean, we have special equipment for yeah, very
actric patient. That's There was a guy in Long Island and Richard Simmons got
him on national television because he was nine hundred pounds and he got him down
to like two hundred, right, and he was on rich So it's amazing
he lost seven hundred pounds right, Well, they say, yeah. The
thing is about Richard Simmons people is that they often go back and it's gain
even more. So he was no, no, no. The guy's name
is Michael Hebronco. He ended up at eleven hundred pounds. He called nine
one one around like ninety eight ninety nine and they had to cut into his
house to get him out. They had to call the fire department. Yeah,
was that how it ends? I was gonna watch that tonight. Now
you're ruined spoiler. Yeah, So that's a it's a weird thing. I
think that any kind of diet unless once you go off of it, no
matter what I mean, I haven't even here in like with thozembek, if
you stop using it sort of loans up because the big thing with those is
it masks the eating habits. Now you're doing exercise and watching your diet.
But you know, if you were just to do the ozembic, you probably
lose I don't know, some certain amount of weight. And then when you
go off of it, sometimes people say they gain even more because you haven't
changed your habits necessarily. And now there's any diet, and the same thing
with any diet I think it's just not sustainable unless you you make it.
This is where the term lifestyle is so but it becomes it just becomes a
fucking word that we all say, lifestyle. I gotta change my lifestyle.
Well yeah, yeah, calories don't count on the weekend. It means you
can't drink and you should probably have some more water. And instead of having
that extra a couple of chips, drink a glass of water or maybe that'll
feel you. I don't know I meant then, but you ever earned the
situations where like the medication that they're on actually help makes people gain weight.
That's a situation. I'm not making excuses like I've figured out that the medication
I'm on, I've gained thirty pounds since I've been put on it. I
was getting these complex migraines where I was half numb. He's on fat fuck
us all. Yeah, yeah, I gained thirty pounds. Yeah, back
to being half numb like a lot of Kevin. Yeah that's right. Yeah,
that's what the off label usage the mess. They just messed with your
metabolism. Yeah, and the whole you'll get the munches. Serotonin, it's
it's a serotonin thing. Yeah, so, but I feel great. You
get much explains all those crumble cookie orders. Yeah, I had to stop
the Actually did they did a wellness check at my house to make sure I'm
still alive. We haven't, he did a few weeks. What's going on.
I'm gonna diet. We'll take a moment. Kevin stumbled upon the whitest

Actually, they would probably be like, you know, we want a
party with her, you can go. They probably would in your luck.
Yes, So last night we were sitting here and we look outside and there's
a ten NBC reporter and then there's these people. They're standing around and they've
almost right outside our studio, kind of split into two factions. They're standing
in a circle, but the circles broken into two like horseshoes to semi circle,
half circles. Okay, and clearly there's something going on. And then
some old guy is waving his finger. There was multiple people waving fingers,
waving his finger in the reporter's face, like at the reporter and the reporter
and then the guy ducked around the back. Now I did so, I
said Kevin, what's going on? So Kevin goes, I'm gonna go find
out. I'll see if I can get some of them to come in.
No, I don't think anybody wanted to come in and talk. I was
trying. I don't even know if you had an opportunity to ask. I
was talking to the people that represented t K. Yeah, from t K's
Pizza. Yeah, he was supposed to come down. I don't think.
I think an order came in or something. Yeah, I love their pizza.
So this is what this is what was going on last night in Fairport.
Turn parked in the fire lane. Okay, I pause it here because
this is right outside our studio. He goes, there's a truck parked in
the fire lane and he's in this is a little like they do this little
pre roll before they do the news story. And he goes to police stations
right there and they're not enforcing that spoiler. It was Bill because I'll park
if I'm loading and unloading ship, I park in this alley all the time.
And then if they're if they have music over at the My Wine and
Cheese Bar, which is a place right down this from our studio, and
there's live music out of the patio right along the canal. It's it's the
wonderful setting. But they're loading in and out. So but this guy is
he's incensed. He's incense And you'll find out why. Police station right here,
who's gonna enforce short term? Perfect report board meeting the reason plans for
a possible bike lane being added to lift bridge lane And listen, these are
so white people problems. This is they are bitching because right in front of
Mure Connery's and t KS they're talking about eliminating the parking spots and making that
a bike lane. NBC's Marsha Augustin was at tonight's meeting and heard from both
sides. Oh, Marsha Augustin. By the way, black woman, Marsha
the only black person out there. She was the only chip in that white
cookie. Nicky and Brett. Things certainly got hated. One man who doesn't
support this project was asked to leave because of his outbirth. You'll see him
in a minute. But there are guy got thrown out at this meeting.
He got thrown out. What are you shaking her Caraman was a brother too.
Oh I didn't know. Yeah, that's true, that's true. But
I mean she was uncomfortable. She was definitely uncomfortable. The guy that waved
his fingers went around the corner and just kept peeking back to see what Like
he probably is a grouchhow mark costume on? I can only imagine the kurd
back to Channelton. He's crazy as white. But this gotta be because what
did she say? You overheard her say, She's like, I don't want
to go over there and talk to those people. No, I don't blame
her. People were getting I don't want to No one got aggressive, but
aggressive. No one got physically aggressive. Let me put it that voices got
raised verbally aggressive. But listen to when this guy gets thrown out. No,
it was including the mayor who say it would be beneficial. Then we
really started hearing about the plans, and that's why like this got together to
say, wait a minute, the Lift Bridge Lane East project is a proposed
reconstruction and rehabilitation project of that street and Fairport. Okay, so this could
be a giant paint in the ass for Damien if they do any right because
it's gonna be. If they're saying construction, that means they're closing down the
street for a while, or they're gonna be in construction on the street which
limits people getting in and out. There's an ice cream polor over there that
people love in the summertime. People love sitting along the canal. You've got
a fair Port music fest coming up at the end of August. Yeah,
so I don't know. They have a bike path that comes directly across from
this street they're talking about. It comes right off the canal and it's a
bike path only. So they're looking to continue that bike path down the canal,
and I think along along this street and then reconnect maybe with the canal.
I don't think the path. I guess the path does run there.
So they're pissed. And the guy from TKS, you're gonna hear him say
why, and then I gotta tell you what somebody wrote on Reddit. Brian
White, the village manager forefare Port, spoke about some of the updates being
proposed, trying to incorporate cars in addition to pedestrian bike access more than what
it is right now, which is really more of it just like parking in
two lane. Road board members continued discussions on what they say will be an
active transportation lane for cyclists. Many people who live in an active transportation lane
it's a bike lane, yeah, in the village are not in favor of
this. They say it's not needed. The owner of t K Pizzeria and
Fairport says this will hurt his business. He told me eighty five percent of
his business is from takeout, and the bike lanes will take away parking for
customer pickup. I am against shaking any parking off this trip. I'm not
against biking on this tree. Put the bicycle lane on the north side,
which is right in front of the pizza shop. That's going to take up
space in front of all of them businesses. Airport Village Mayor Julie Domerat says
these discussions have been going so okay. Basically, he's saying people like to
pull up and get their pizza. Somebody rights and reddit, how fat are
you if you can't walk a few hundred feet to get your pizza? But
it is. You'd be amazed though, Like how people in their their psyche,
they're in their milor. I don't want to walk on no, but
somebody else. Parking is not available, Like if i've if I know I've
got to not that I wouldn't still go, but if I have to walk
half block, yeah, to get a pizza, I'm gonna call Marks and
pull right up, or called Salvatars and pull right up. Yeah, there
haed parking over there. Well there's limited parking, so it's they have it
where it's just you can park in front of pks And I think those are
the spots they're talking about taking away. But I gotta keep playing this because
the guy, the guy who gets thrown out going on for more than a
year, and it's time to get the wheels turning and put things in motion.
She believes there are benefits to this new reconstruction, the ability to walk,
bike safely and drive safely. Nobody really drives that fast on that street.
No, you just you can't, really can't. And it kind of
dead ends. And you've got the back there's a one lane bridge over the
canal on the backside. Uh, you've got the main one, the lift
the lift bridge, and then you've got this all in the same area on
this street that you're you're obnoxious. Yeah, please leave, You're obnoxious good
bye. That is fair Port. It's Nigel. He lives in the village
and is not happy with these proposed plans. So you have a pizzeria you
want close, people can pull up, get the pizza and go home.
Let me ask you this. I love pizza, gay I get worked up
over the fact that somebody can't park in front of a pizza joint. And
it's not my pizza joint. Even if I like going there, I don't.
I'm not getting this worked up that I'm going to a village meeting to
start bitching. I gotta say this, though, cyclists to be like just
an everyday cyclist, you gotta have some coin because it's a hobby that requires
is people problem, it really is. And I gotta be honest with you.
If you can't just ride on the right side of the street, if
you need a freaking lane, find a new ff hobby. These people,
these people lobby in Congress. They're a pain in the ass, dude,
Cyclists are a pain in the ass. They are. There's a radio guy
I think we knew who. I think his name is Mikey or something who
said, hey, if you have a passenger, you open your door.
And you got you see that's terrible. That was not saying you should do
that. But what I'm saying is this, like this is ridiculous. Tk's
Nigel says, But this redesign it won't allow for that. Others like Todd
Shewsky is in favor of their improvements. It makes an interconnected network of bicycle
lanes and multimodal transportation for not just Fairport but the county as well. Oh
shut up, no, well so what's next? Well the town boy,
Well hang out. Why why do you say that? Because I think like
having a bike lane is actually better for even me as a driver, because
they're not out in the street if you ever go out like five and twenty
and stuff, and those there were Like I lived across the street from a
professional cyclist. He used to be on the bud Light team. He would
jump on his bike on a Sunday morning and go out into the Bristol and
back. It would be like a ninety mile ride. And some of those
hills and winding roads. I always get nervous when they see these guys,
you know, or I would get nervous. Or on eas street where I
lived, you would see like a pack of them coming down the street,
and I would sort of get annoyed in that it would it slowed down traffic.
I'd be worried that somebody would get hit, like I wouldn't. I
don't know that I would ride a bike or motorcycle. Do you understuff though?
At least? Yeah? Yeah, I mean you understand to share the
road, They understand where they're coming up. They stay as close to the
white line as possible. But I don't mind like these guys having their own
path. You do, yeah, I mean I don't think it's necessary.
I really don't. I kind of like you understand how it works. If
you're gonna beat live that lifestyle, as we talked about in the last secment.
If you're gonna if you're gonna do that, you have to know the
risks. I mean, like motorcyclists like, don't ask for all these special
concessions. You can't because it's motor rides. I understand it. But by
point is they understand the risks of riding a motorcycle. Yes, but a
motorcycle can go as fast as these cars. My thing is like I actually
somewhat appreciate as a driver, and I don't cycle and if I did,
it would be probably mountain biking in be In trails somewhere if I could h
which they have allowed in Monroe County. Again, there's some great park out
in west around that's a whole bunch of Yeah, there are by road,
but and that you'd appreciate because they're not on your way at all. Right,
But I'm just saying like, I don't mind it because I if you
had like a family, and you take your kids out for a bike ride
and you're coming off the canal and you just continue on, I don't see
this is that? Yeah, I even built up this nice commerce though in
this area, and let's chip away, right, let's chip away at that
so people who can who bike or cycle three months out of the year can
have their way. You gotta helmet, you gotta bike, take get a
mirror, and take your freaking chances. I'm with DK on this. Well,
it's not because he just has amazing bezza either that street, by the
way, I don't think people go very fast. Here's well, here's a
compromise. There's a chance that you could get hip pulling out, but you
gotta be aware. Here's a compromise, get speed bumps done. There you
go, there, you go. Everybody's happy because now you gotta look at
you have to go slow. But if I get drunk about Conners and I
walk back and I trip over that, you know the risk I'm yelling,
you know the risk. You know the risks hip to Danny temperate but equal
opportunity. Speed bumps have to be in the bike lane too. It'll build
up callouses and character and muscles. I don't I really don't have that big
a deal on some like like an East Avenue, if they put in like
a bike lane, I almost appreciate it because it gets so narrow with thee.
But use a judgment call here and down there. That's not a good
idea. It no, it hurts business. Such like small road it's like,
what one hundred hundred yards long? Like, what do you need a
bike lane? I think it just dead ends, doesn't it. I don't
know. I've always turns up towards the doesn't turn up to the bridge.
Yeah that's what I mean, Okay, okay, always Yeah, I mean
I don't think you can go much beyond that. You've heard the expression read
the room, We'll read read the landscape over there, all right, you
got businesses. This used to be nothing. All of a sudden you got
these great business Hey, let's ruin it with a bike lane, Danny,
you bring more people than on their bicycle. Healthy. You need to burn
off the calories from t case pizza. Uh, Donna Lee's down there or
does Damien call it? Thank you? Thank you? You know you're such
a defense appreciate love when Dandy gets patched. I went there once and somebody
goes, why are you here? I know, what do you mean?
You should be mcconrads like you run. I'm sorry. It just before you
and I like talked again. Yeah, yeah, like alys is good.
Yeah, they aren't going there for lunch and just yeah, this one dude
offered me, I think it just breaking my ball. But this one dude
offered me, he I want you to try something now he wanted, he
wanted. Danny was circumcised and so it didn't work. Yeah, but he
offered me this, like I forgot the name of it, this scotch that's
really smoking. It's like a campfire taste. It was really good. No,
it was it was like he was, this is done the house because
it's brand new. We'd never served it to anybody. Want to try it?
I said, sure, sounds like like like like a Highland Scotch.
I don't, I don't. I don't about scotch. That was really good
because little mcroofy he tasted like the uh it tasted like the air a month
ago with those wildfires. Was very tasty. Oh that's good. Somebody should
come up with that wildfire whisky. That's a great name. Let's get a
gun. I just it was so funny stuff just seeing the people how passionate
that they're they're getting about it other people and I get the d K point.
You know, you want to make it easy for your customers, so
you want to make everything is as user friendly as possible. This would be
a big change over how many years is T came in there, I don't
know. And it was all like you said, it was all white people,
but it was all white older probably in their mid fifties of Yeah,
who who know are biking? No? That's the other thing is I don't
think they are now that you could use it as a walking lane. I
mean I I do see the benefit of those types of things that Yes,
that's true. The path, the canal path, so this bike thing comes
right off the canal path, but you're supposed to get off right at that
bridge. Yeah, bridge down there and walk your bike till you reach the
thing pass to where the canoes and stuff are. Yes, but now I
think but if you want to, I think, now you can come off.
There's like this whole entrance of when you want out here to look or
yeah, look it's on the other side of the bridge. But it's right
across from lift bridge lane. So you'll come off. You're right, because
you can't. They're stairs to go down too. If you're on the path,
it goes underneath the bridge, so you gotta go down these concrete stairs.
But with this they let the bikers go across the street and then back
on the path some way somewhere down there. It's a little confoluted. But
just seeing why people get off and seeing a black reporter go, I don't
want to talk to you. I understand people are getting shot down in the
city plain about a bike. This is exactly I thought this today. Angle
man, there's somebody in the city of russ going shit. You think you
got problems. It's like, come on, man, it's over a bike
path. It's a bike path. Uh, don't miss what's happening over at
RV's. Then let me try that again. Bers. Yeah, yeah,
I'm trying to take a script and in my head change it as on the
fly. You had Donaldy's don Lee's mull Conners, and in between I went
to Tea Kicks. Yeah, and then after that I had ice cream.
My my diabetes is up everywhere. Some dude on a cycle gave him a
ride back to the studio. You know what I want to do. You
know what I want to do is I want to come down on my unicycle
and my cycle juggle balls. Yeah. I haven't ridden the unicycle in a
long time, but I'm gonna but you you've ridden one. I have one.
Oh no kidding, Really, I am on a unicycle. He's also
a virgin. Yeah what does that mean? I have a unicyclecus iris twins?
What are you talk about? Yes, exactly. Nobody who's ever written
he never adopted them, because nobody's ever written the unicycle shit. A lot
of people kid, Yeah, I've never That's a great balance for you.
It's a great way to learn about Usually I use a ball for that,
but okay, great balance on the unicycle. Where'd you get going? I
mean I might need it. I'll bring it in Here'll bring it in here.
We should all like take Yeah, I better be hearing somebody falls.
It'd be like it'll be like a like a rodeo. Like right, you
have eight seconds, Ben, I don't think i've ridden this thing in at
least two years. I haven't been on the unicycle. Wow, I had
no idea. Yeah, I know exactly where it is. When did you
When did you start this? I've always had Uh. So I fooled around
with unicycles for years, like we A buddy of mine had it. You
guys got a race? Huh? Doesn't list love unicycles too? Oh,
I have no idea. I don't know anything. I don't know anything about
that. So my brother had one. But when I was a kid,
there were some people that who had it. It might have been my friend
Chris Bartolomeo's dad had one down at the garage, and so we used to
like screw around and ride it around the garage and stuff, and I could
get it really going. And I always thought they were cool, And then
I don't. I never really played with him. But it was interesting because
you could balance on this one wheel and go back and forth, and it
was just great balance you had. You have to have strong corn everything.
And then uh, when I was in college, I remember at some party
somebody had a unicycle, so I wrote it around. It was funny.
And then my dad bought one for Jackson and he didn't want it, so
I have it. So I have the unicycle. So during COVID and stuff,
I whipped it out again and I would ride it around my place.
And then I moved and I haven't taken I was like two years ago and
I haven't played well. I know exactly where it is. I just haven't
done. Hysterical if you would have ridden back and forth to that protest,
how funny. We need a bike path, We need a cycle path.
One Fairport man had his own suggestion. A cycle path. You can do
this, you get your bike path. How's that you can balance on this?

I think one of the greatest guitar riffs run. Oh yes, I
absolutely love this and I know for being a Stones fan, I mean it
was always for years satisfaction. But I don't almost put this one higher.
Definitely in the top ten. Yeah, I think it's Markoffler's phenomenal, very
under rat I know, well, yeah, not a glamorous didn't have the
big name, didn't When do you think of guitar players, He's not.
He doesn't come to the top of one of the best. Yeah, like
Lindsey Buckingham saying thing, he's amazing and nobody ever talks about him. Yeah,
it's a just a interesting little yeah side thing that I don't know why.
I just popped in my head as I was doing that, thinking about
the unicycle put that on still? How do you turn on? Now?
I was just wondering during the how do you turn? No? You,
yeah, it's all in your hips, hips and stuff. You slow down
and just turn your hips. Okay, Yeah, it's a great thing for
balance. I'm telling you, we'll put the seat low. I'll give you
a chance and you just hold onto the wall and then you just big as
the wheel. It's about like a ten speed size or is it a little
small typical bike? Okay, yeah, this is a This would be more
like a standard. Yeah, it's not a little one, right, but
he's thinking ten speed. Oh no, no, no big, no,
no, no, this is I mean, I've never I've never seen a
live unicycle. This is a first for me. It is I'm gonna lose
my unicycle virginity. All right, I'll bring it in tomorrow. You follow
the wrong, you might ever, Yeah, I think I gotta fill the
tire. I'll get I'll get some air in the tire and then well,
yeah, i'll bring it in tomorrow. All right. I have a pump
if you need me to bring it, bring it in case because I don't
know. I honestly, it's been two years, so I don't know.
And I'm not gonna spend that day going to buy a tire and all that.
I will over the weekend, but I canna get another ship going on,
all right? That yeah, all right, I'll have it in here.
We'll just leave it here. I'll take it out like we could ride
it outside right out in front the Chinese front and then we should have like
signs every day. A different person's got to like hold the sign with the
unicycle and ride back and promote something, you know, like lee. That
would be great. Uh. There was a news story that caught my eye
a while ago and I thought that's interesting and one of what's going on here?
It's not making any sense? And I thought, could it be human
trafficking? Could it be some way that people that this woman was lured to
be kidnapped in some way? It was a toddler supposedly on the highway and
she went to rescue the toddler and as a result got kidnapped. Yeah,
they used the toddlers bait. Well, I don't know. I'm thinking to
myself, was it really a toddler? Did they find a small person?
I think they used to in the incorrect politically in correct days, it was
midget, but someone of you know, smaller statues. Well, so the
thing is the bizarre thing and I think she got back. Did she come
back? And the story nine hours later she showed back up. Yeah,
so she gets back. But she does she have a boyfriend or I thought
she was engaged? Maybe? Yeah, I think she was engaged or whatever.
Well, here's the story today, Breaking news from NBC Now. A
couple of minutes ago, that missing Alabama woman who came back home, Carly
Russell, turns out her lawyer says she was never kidnapped and she never saw
any toddler on the side of the highway. Blaine Alexander joins us Now and
Blaine. This puts to rest. I think a mystery that we've been talking
about for something like a week after the alleged kidnapping of Carly Russell. She
was missing for about forty eight hour So it's a pretty elaborate lie to come
up with. Four of minutes ago, there hang up Alabama woman who came
back home, carl See if we can find more on this. Her lawyer
says she was never kidnapped and she never saw any toddler on the side of
the highway. Blaine Alexander joins us Now and Blaine. This quits to rest.
I think a mystery that we've been talking about for something like a week
after the alleged kidnapping of Carly Russell. She was missing for about forty eight
hours, that she saw toddler on the highway, told police she'd been abducted.
Turns out it was all made up? Is that what happened? She
was banging some other dude? Oh yeah, she was fanging some other dude.
Had to be right. That sounds like that's exactly what happened, Hallie.
This really is at She explained the whole story. You pretty much summed
it up. Yeah, why they here back to you. We're gonna throw
it back to Billifi. They have another theory. She was poking them nine
hours and then he bought out his unicycle. Scared to read it, I
wrote it back to my house, unning, ending to a case that hang
on, this might be a press conference. I'm gonna just see on the
other ways has captivated this country? So not too long ago? Police,
Well, I didn't miss it because I saw the headline. Boy, that's
an interesting thing if this really happened, Like would you would you stop?
And I go? I did stop once for kids. I stopped getting off
at Bushnail's Basin and I'm coming around the turn. I remember this. It
was like Christmas time, Yeah, and there were two kids walking up the
ramp and I go, what are you doing? I go, guys getting
because I you didn't see them. They weren't in any kind of clothing that
would have any kind of reflective anything. I don't think they even had jackets.
And turn out that her mother got pissed and kicked him out of the
car on four ninety and then they saw her get off that exit at Bushdail's
basin. She was in the Tim Horton's down there and I dropped off.
I go there, no no questions asked. I would not ask any question.
And she's like, I trying to give an excuse, like go man,
like everybody's a bad days. None of my business. I'm just glad
they weren't killed, because you the last thing you were expecting was seeing a
human being in the dark walking along where there is not even a shoulder.
Everyone told you I wanted to get killed. Gave an update that they read
a statement from an attorney on behalf of Carly Russell and essentially said, point
blank, there was no kidnapping. I want to read you a couple of
the top lines from this. There was no kidnapping. She says she never
saw a baby on the side of the road, She didn't leave the Hoover
area. She says she did not have any help in this incident. I
think that's something that's important to point out that this looking for I did all
by all, I had done alone by herself. She says in the statement
that my client was not at a hotel with anyone from the time she was
missing ship. Yeah, she was at a hotel. She was at a
house. But Carle apologizes to everyone in the community who searched for her.
Now, now here's my theory. When you do shit like this and it
blows up, you gotta pay for the medical emergency to search everything. Yeah
you think, oh, yeah, come on, what I heard. You
took people away from a real incident. Somebody had somebody had a heart attack
during that time, right, somebody couldn't get medical service, something a fireman.
I don't know. What I heard today was that there was a people
were donated to crimestoppers, and Crimestoppers is gonna give it back. They're like,
now we're good, We're gonna keep it. Who's gonna keep it?
Crimestoppers? They just keep the money. That Yeah, I kind of would
see the same thing because I gave it out of the goodness of mine.
That would be my thing is I'll give you this, keep it I'll give
you the option. Hey, if you want your money back, if you
gave because of this, you know, but then again, there's no way
to tell you're just giving money, you know what. Hang on a second,
they stop the crime. Nothing happened. The two imaginary men were wearing
that kind of ending. Asking for prayers. We ask for your prayers as
Carly addresses these issues, her issues and attempts to move forward, understanding that
she made a mistake in all of this. So hallie, when we kind
of sawing, when the police put out it all right? Now, hang
on, I have over here the key of the see babies, the Hoover,
Alabama Police. Let's hear what Afonsalda with the Hoover Police Department. We're
here today to provide an update in the Carle Russell investigation, where Hoover Alabama
statement that we'll provide an update in this case. After reading the statement,
we will have time for a few questions related to the case. Keep in
mind, this is still an ongoing investigation and there are some questions we simply
cannot answer at this point. But that I'll turn it over to Chief Darts.
Oh, the chiefs has got to act, yea has a big deal.
Thanks to everyone for Candan. Again. Today, I want to thank
the members of our department and all of law enforcement who played a role in
the investigation of this case. Last Wednesday, July nineteenth, we held a
press conference and provided you with the facts of the Cardy Russell disappearance. We
told you the investigation was ongoing. We hope they determine where Cardy was.
But in the forty nine hours of her disappearance, could he be gone to
bring the chief date talked about the lady Piston and Alish's back because he was
way more better than this guy and it was way more entertaining Mister Anthony and
schedule a meeting for Cardy to meet with investigators order this afternoon. But then
I received an email Stadium that a statement was being provided by him on her
behalf. Mister Anthony asked that I read the statement in its entirety, which
I would do. Now here we go. My client has given me permission
to make the following statement on her behalf. There was no kidnapping on Thursday
July nineteenth, twenty twenty three. My client did not see a baby on
the side of the road. My client did not leave the Hoover AIA,
which she was identified as a missing person. Why the fuck would you do
this? Well, I mean, there's this story, a legend in Rochester
about a hotel fire that happened in Greece and the guy who reported it.
There's rumors that he rose through the ranks. But what there really wasn't a
fire. He started the fire to her up for something else going on in
his life. So people do stupid crap like this all the time. Yeah,
but this is this is I should say all the time, but not
have any help in this incident. But this was a single act done by
herself. My client was not with anyone or any hotel with anyone from the
time she was missing. It's almost like you're trying too hard. You just
say that she wasn't with anyone or at any hotel with anyone. If you
hear anything security footage, it's all the mirage. But that motel apologizes for
actions to this. I want to see her boyfriend. I gotta find her
boys. I got the credit card. This is a hotel. It charges
by the hours. That's a strange. One can't think press charges against her
for yes? False? Yes, absolutely, I think I think they.
I think so. Now I don't know if it gets I mean, she
was with one of the police officers. That's a good point, Chief,
Yeah, I don't know community the volunteers who were searching for her to the
Hoover Police Department and other agencies. Yeah, so okay, that's that's her
boyfriend. Yeah. He looks like a handsome young guy. That why how
do you feel if this is what was going on? Like did they get
in a huge fight and she's just good to try to disappear and find out
if you love me or not, you're gonna come trying to find me.
Her boyfriend is pleading with people to not bully her amid speculation about her abduction.
Claims. So he's protecting her or trying to at least he's trying to
be a good guy. Maybe he lives with her and he needs the money,
well that's the other thing. Or or maybe we hear about something called
red flags. Yes, you just found a red flag. That's bizarre.
How far is it's from the boys? I don't know where Hoover is.
Uh, they're in northern Alabama, so new or Huntsville. Maybe they're going
to try to do a ransom and get some money for their wedding. Could
be. Oh, that could be. Oh, I can't wait till for
the lifetime movie about this. Uh. I don't know where Whover is.
Nope, New River Walks, City Hall. It's got to be down a
little bit more deeper into the state, I think. I mean, those
accents were a little thicker than I. And yeah, it looks south of
Birmingham. Yeah, I think. Yeah, And the Birmingham's about two and
a half hours from where they are, steel City, the Pittsburgh of the
south. Oh yeah, Birmingham. That's Uh, well, there you go.
I don't know. I don't know. What would you do if that
was your family member. I'd be freaking out. Yeah yeah, well of
course you'd be freaking out. But now that you find out that it's nothing,
and what do you say? Oh, I'd be like, Okay,
um, what happened? I knew she was crazy? Well did you expect
the right answer? I mean, be a weird I could get it out
of her. I could get the answer out of my family members. I
could. I could get the answer out doctor. There's ways to do this
waterboard. No, I take that thing that they pulled out of that one
fat woman you were dealing with and that wave in front of her. I
want answers. I passed out, she escaped. Then okay, we ain't
answer John. Have you seen people like make stuff up to come into the
into Yeah yeah yeah, Um, I don't know how that apswer got up
there. I need to ride the family dollar. I was taking a nap
and it just rolled up there. Yeah. Um no, Uh so it's
a munch housing by proxy. Yeah. That's when like a parent makes up
like uh like fake things that's wrong with their kid. They go the kid,
you know, they have this going on, they have this going on,
or they'll poison them. Yeah, and they bring them into the hospital
and they have to try to figure out what's going on with them, and
it's like they need the attention. Yeah's mom was accused of this stuff.
Really. Oh yeah, so I when I did my page rotation hands a
kid come in and they figured out it was the mom was injecting stuff into
the kid's IV. Whoa, whoa. They set the lady up. They
had like left some syringes out and some vials that were labeled something that but
it wasn't what they had labeled and so they they I think they ended up
they had to get like a warrant and put cameras in the room and they
caught so which the kid legitimately sick in the hospital or something. I guess
you. I think she was poisoning the kid or doing something at home.
This kid, Yeah, and then they brought him, brought the kid in.
Why would you do that to your child? It's a mental illness.
Yeah, you're wanting an attention. You know, you're getting this attention because
your kids sick. Now, yeah, there's people do it to themselves too,
right, Yeah, yeah, well they were right. There was a
woman that fake cancer in Canandegula. She shaved her head. Oh yeah,
and we're bagging your clothes, and she had fundraisers and shit, I thought
that there was one. Was there one locally? I can't remember if this
was local or not. Would they shave a kid's head, told the kid
the kid a cancer, kid in have cancer? I remember hearing something.
Yeah, it's terrible. I mean that to me is like, that's criminal
poisoning your kid. I mean, that's just please. There are people who
would love to raise your child and give it a loving home. And you
know, I remember in the nineties there's this trend of people calling nine one
one because they needed rides to the grocery store and stuff. They didn't have
a car, and it became a thing and like they had to Suber was
born, you know, and the Nabulus drivers felt bad for him and would
drive them. Really Oh yeah, I don't yeah, I don't know.
It's like like early I was, Buffalo was like a thing going on.
I don't remember this. When's the next round for you? Like next to
when you gotta work again? I'm I'm on my month break. You get
a month break, so I had doing so I'm a traveler. Okay,
you're trying. I work eleven months out of twelve and take a month off.
That keeps me. There's like weird rules yea for like tax reasons,
okay, because you end up getting because you get a stip I get a
stipend as a traveler, right, So where do you where's the furthest you've
traveled to? I just go to Syracuse, Okay, I've been I've been
doing it for three years. I've been at the same hospital, same okay.
Yeah, it's like fifty percent travelers there. Wow. And it's a
state hospital, so they've got good benefits. They've got good state benefits,
and they pay pretty decent. You know. It's one of these, you
know people everybody wants to travel because it was more with COVID, and when
the COVID was at you know, it's height, people were making ten fifteen
thousand dollars a week. Yeah, you know, it's it's way down now,
but it's still better money than like if I worked at Strong or General
or Highland or in the local hospitals. What does the medical community view COVID
as now were we given I always feel like we were told the best information
available at the time. I do. I don't think there was this conspiracy
to to hurt anybody intentionally at the onset. Now I don't know. Maybe
I'm being naive and I'm having the wool pole over my eyes and I'm certainly
there will be people who say that. I think that, you know,
I kind of questioned myself in a way that I go, well, I
normally wouldn't get the flu vaccine because you know, sometimes it's effective simes it's
not. My doctor would always say you really should get it, And yet
I've had other things I've had the pneumonia, innoculation, you know, oculation
or inoculation inoculation, So I don't know. But with this one, it
was I just felt like it was the right thing to do. I need
to do. I wanted to keep working. I wanted to do this thing.
And I figured out I put a lot of other shit in my body.
So, you know. But now when we're hearing these different things,
and I again, I don't know. You know, sometimes you'll hear,
well, they're finding stuff and they're just not telling you. I don't know
how we keep information down nowadays. It seems impossible, Yeah, because I
mean just anything you can get leaked, you know. But yeah, you
know, COVID. I got the I got the vaccine. I actually got
ended up getting COVID finally after I got vaccinated. Me too. It was
it was horrible. Yeah, even vaccinated. I was down for like,
you know, four or five days, and I think it was two days.
I was like maybe I was really sick for a day. I body
just everything hurt. My hair hurt, yeah, and everything just hurt.
And I just couldn't do anything. I still ate, just because I knew
I had to. I couldn't taste anything, and I got on that uh
those pills I had to take, and that everything tasted like metal. Yeah,
I was like, it was just a horrible because I even went when
I got it, and I was pretty sick. But it was again,
it was short lived, and I was trying to get over it as quickly
as possible as my youngest son was coming to town and uh in the next
couple of days. So I tried to call because my mother's going get the
anti virals. So I called my doctor and I get a call back.
Yeah, the doctor says you're too healthy for the anti virals. I've heard
that to well. I mean I think that he deals with, you know,
mostly older people, and and honestly, I was within a day.
I was back. It took me a while though. I had a slight
cough for a long time and I could feel to my chest for a while.
Yeah, I didn't have much of a cough. I just yeah,
that's where stuff usually affects me the most. And that's when I stopped,
like actually running it all because and that's when the weight came, yes,
slowly, Yeah, because you break up. Yeah, man, that's absolutely
one days you started habit two days a break. Yeah right, I had
the aches, the pains, the fever, you know, it just no.
But in the medical community, people go, this was a complete bullshit.
We overreacted. I don't know where the truth lies in it, and
I don't even like dabbling in there because I go, look, it's in
the past, and I really do like to think. And maybe it is
naive that we were given the best information at the time. We really people
were racing to try to figure stuff out. I think we were given the
best information. I mean, we didn't know what was happening. It was,
it was it was scary. Yeah, you know, I was.
I was in on the front lines and people were dying and yeah, you
know, morgues are filling up. It was just you were running on of
space. You know. I had had had friends that would come in and
they were pretty sick, and you know, you got worried for him.
So but I was lucky enough not to get sick, even being like around
all these people. Yeah, I'm around, I mean I was. I
was on Highland at the time, and you know, we're in a unit.
It was a COVID unit, and you know we had that put the
big thing over my head with our respirator and everything, and you had to
gown up and glove up and you in and you know, you forget something.
You have to call somebody because I'm like, I'm not going to take
all this stuff out, and then you go wash everything and they put it
back on, you know it to do anything. It took five times.
It's all five times. It was just like, oh man, right,
you know, because you just said, Okay, I got to go into
this room. I'm just gonna do everything I need to do now. And
you're in there for like forty five minutes or so, which one hour,
and then you leave the room and I was like, please don't ring your
bell. We hopefully you don't need anything else because I've been in here for
now. I got to see my other patients, right, But it was
it was rough, but you know, we made it through it, so
hopefully everything. It's a very weird time like in the world history. I
mean, it was a strange thing. Everything shut down, and yeah,
wow, we're past it, and slowly stuff is coming back. But I
think there's lingering effects economically and otherwise. Yeah, I mean things, and
I think it hurts certain things. I probably even the medical community. Yeah,
in terms of so many people, like I said, so many people,
Yeah, like the left. I don't want to do this anymore.
Right, I've had enough people that either close to retire and then people who
were originally were told they lose their job if they didn't get vaccinated, and
they kind of held strong to that. We lost a lot of nurse yea.
And they have some come back, not the ones that didn't get vaccinated
vaccinated. I haven't seen anybody come back. I think a lot of those
people had other, you know, other things already set up. Yeah,
or they're like had a spouse that had good money, made good money or
something. But yeah, yeah, it was this is a strange thing.
I don't know. And you hear all this stuff and I always go,
I don't. I hate to be I don't like it because it borders on
conspiracy stuff and I do really believe. I don't and I know, follow
the money, the big pharma, this kind of thing, that kind of
thing, and I okay, But at the other end of it, I
thought everybody was doing what they thought was best, and even the medical community,
and I don't think you could have that many people on the take,
you know, what I'm saying, you can't have. I don't believe that
you could have that many. Now, did we overreact to stuff? Did
there become maybe some power hungry people with this thing with outside and you know,
if you're taking a walk by yourself, where's your mask? You know
that kind of shit. I was like, all right, outside, I
took my mask off all the time. I didn't get it. I'm alone
in the car. I still see people with the mask out of the car.
I don't. Yeah, I mean, but those okay, I hey
man, whatever, if you know, maybe making a short trip and popping
in and out, it's easier to leave it on. I don't know.
But what buck me is people that are wearing gloves. Yeah, they're touching
everything, yes, touching their money, taking everything else, and they pull
their masks down. Like, what is the point of having gloves on if
you're not going to take them off and wash your hands before you do anything
else? I mean, you have dirty your gloves are dirty. We're not.
We're we just said we don't. We don't look good. We don't,
but we don't think that that's that's the problem. And I think a
lot of people was even with COVID. We didn't. We didn't think we
overreacted. We should have stepped back and maybe waited, and we couldn't have.
We maybe shouldn't have implemented such a stylele standards that were hurting us economically.
But you know, you know, on the flip side, though,
there's this old expression never let a crisis go to waste, and so there
was that's where everybody's like, so they're not gonna waste this, right,
and then we find out a little by little. Yeah, I believe that
for the most part, for the most part, people you know, us
the best information they had in the beginning. Yeah, Like I like when
Rachel Maddow says, the virus stops with you. I think she really believed
that, which she said that, Yeah, you know, and then we
found out, Oh it's not because they're not gonna tell you everything. And
maybe they didn't even know. But that's what I mean. It's I don't
know the medical community knew, but I do think like some of those standards
and things that hurt society and restaurants and businesses that went out of business because
they couldn't you know, where I get angry when there's proof that things are
going sideways. We need to investigate it and no, no, no,
we're not doing that. But that's where I got an issue. But if
you think about it, like all like the social distancing, the masks and
everything like that. I didn't get that cold, so yeah, people got
nothing. Yeah I got nothing, So it does. Hell. I started
to think that if you know, maybe in next year in the wintertime,
I might you know, I didn't. I didn't get a cold. That
ain't the flu. Yeah, but years yeah, years later, you're gonna
pay for it at some point when like, oh, because you're supposed to
get these diseases so that your body builds up, you know, and your
bodies and stuff and in beauty or else, one day you're gonna get sick
and it's gonna like knock you off your feet, you know. So that's
that's the other side of it too, right. But that one year though,
Danny, Now I don't. I didn't say I didn't even have a
sort of every year around February, between February March, I always get a
really sore throat. Yeah nothing. I'm like, this year has been better
than my first marriage. Let that's saying something, all right, we'll wrap
it up. For Christian Dan, who masks were better than his first marriage.
For John the nurse, thanks for coming in, Thanks for having me,
always a pleasure. For Kevin Muran his puppy. There's not a lot
of puppy talk. Later, everything good, guys, everything, good time
palace. I'm Bill Moran, will say tomorrow trying a TV. Y'all do
the letter to you, And this is stopping by the dead, and the
morning had a stay h
