The deck Stefan Good Day download with Doug and Jay Kirshner is made possible in
part by Caldron, which is the safe way for you to lose weight and
keep it off. That's the end of the week. Therefore, it would
be the week end about them apps. I've got that explained. It's interesting
how easy it is to understand the concept once you understand what the words mean.
Right. So we will not get our merges fixed here on the Good
Day program today, maybe not hear all of them because my voice last three
or four hours. We'll see it's being it's been a bad boy for the
last twenty Fully. Fortunately I wasn't here yesterday, so you couldn't hear me.
You probably if I had been here, wouldn't been able to hear me.
But now we're cooking on gas. I have to do up and down
an airplane as much as I have been in the last week or so,
and I still have more of it to go because I'm flying from Los Angeles
to Saint Loil to Saint Louis, Good Doug to Salt Lake City to see
my pal Jack Stockwell later today, and then tomorrow I'm flying back to Boston.
So I'll have Catching Up with a Plane. Ah, So, Jayie
and Doug all right here for the Friday program, we'll have our talk radio
countdown review and all the good stuff that we normally do at the end of
the week. As we think about what there is that's important, what's going
on? What have you seen, what have you heard? And has what
you've seen and what you've heard, what you've experienced, has that help you
become who you are? When you think about the things that you hear,
do they influence who you are? Do you read things and does that influence
who you are? Or does that just influence your thinking or not to make
this confusing, but what you think, I think thoughts or things, and
so what you think becomes who you are? Thanks to come to fruition.
Yeah right, n't you think? Possibly so well? Thank you sperience the
perception, what the world around you looks like and thinks about you, and
what you think about it. I think I've become very philosophical, or not
that I aren't. That I aren't to good Doug, that I'm not usually
philosophical to a point, but spending a couple of days in Hawaii and going
to Kauhai and then on to Amaui and looking at the beauty. Did you
post that picture? I forgot to ask you. I sent you a picture
of the damage from the fire I did. It is heartbreaking, but it's
not exactly it's not anywhere near as bad as the news media made it out
to me. It was like the whole end of the island burned to a
crisp and it didn't much if not most of Lenai that end of the island
survived and survived well. I had a lot of peoples, yeah, who
are out of work, because it's kind of like the situation in Baltimore with
a bridge collapse. Talking about you know, the impact not just does that
influence. And we'll talk a lot about this, obviously, because I think
it's close to the top of the list this week on the talk radio countdown
list of things that have been discussed on talk radio News talk radio. But
the impact of the sixteen hundred people who work in the port who are now
out of work and who knows when they'll get back to work, that's the
that's you know, there's there's the main story. I e. The boat
hits the bridge, Okay, so then the next story is why did the
boat hit the bridge? And there are a lot of different stories about that
floor. And we had didn't we hadn't we been told because there were questions
about what if there is a power outage on such a big ship like that,
a big cargo ship like that, And we were always told there's still
the ability to steer. But in this case, they lost power and they
lost controls. There was no ability to ability to steer. And this ship,
this is like the size of a skyscraper. It's massive. Yep.
And apparently they found a lot of illegal cargo in the ship or I don't
know what it's described as cargo, but there's a lot of stuff in the
ship that ought not to be in the ship, a lot of things that
are that who knows that they let it go? For example, if they
drained the ship, the belly of the ship out into the ocean. There
are all kinds of things that I don't know if you've seen it. But
again, I don't want to get too deeply into it because I'd rather talk
about it when we get to the countown. How about the solar eclipse?
Are you going to see the solar eclipse where you are. The path extends
from where James Collins is down in our studio, in the main studio in
Dallas to Maine. So where I am I probably will be able to see
it. Well, let's see where am I going to be? Then on
that day the solar eclipse is schedule, We'll schedule. How do I do
schedule April eighth, which is next weekend? So should I build the car
conversation around the excitement for next week? We don't have to get to just
thinking about where we're going to be thirty Mondays? Where will you be,
Doug? Yeah? Where will I be in two Mondays? Let me think
now, where will I be in two Mondays? What's I'll be with the
No, the April eighth is a week from Yeah, I'll be with doctor
Ken down in Florida. So the time and the path thirty two million Americans.
I won't see much about it all down in Florida, but you will
where you are in Cleveland, and James will see it in Dallas. So
there'll be a lot of sensational things. It's called the celestial sensation of the
twenties and the matter of speaking twenties twenty four. The path as you look
at it. It's really kind of a neat little graph if you have the
opportunity. We all know the Moon's going to slip between the Sun and the
Earth and then in places if I were back in my home town of Framingham,
about ninety two percent of the sun would be gone. But if you
go to the NASA website NASA dot CoV, just put in your Google search
part, just putt NASA in and it'll tell you, depending on your zip
code, where you will be, yeah, and how much of the sun
blocked. Like what everybody is going to see an eclipse, just not everybody
is going to see the total eclipse. Do not look at it directly.
You have to protect your eyes. You have to if you're not gonna when
we look, you can't even look at the sun. Have you ever noticed
that, whether you're silly enough to look at the sun directly, you can't
really look at the sun directly. Have you ever noticed that you look at
it directly and your eyes closed, and your your eyes do weird things because
you're not supposed to look at the sun. Because the rapbody knows, yeah,
right exactly. I see I'm a sunglasses where I have a hard time
being outside and even just like looking at the grass when the sun is so
bright, it's painful and I can't imagine actually trying to look directly at it.
Well, in the circumstances we find ourselves in, depending where you are,
four minutes and twenty eight seconds, if you were able to see the
total solar eclipse, which was what the last time it was twenty seventeen,
I think, wasn't it. Glasses are being sold now, and if you
don't buy them, I'm guessing if you don't buy them this weekend, they'll
be sold out. Oh. Probably Those glasses are intense too. We have
some and I put them on inside the house and you can't see a single
thing. That's the idea. I think that's where it works, the idea
exactly. So anyway, the moon completely blocks the sun and there's a corona
around it, and also, as I say that, you'll be able to
see that. Okay, but if you don't have I'm guessing. Remember how
hard toilet paper was to find during the pandemic, So these sunglasses are going
to be in that category when that's the time you get it. But NASA
has a list of approved solar eclipse glasses, and if you go to the
American Astronomical Society, they'll give you vendors who have these glasses as well.
They'll tell you where to go. But the standard is pretty strong, and
I think you better do the thing that I wish that we had remind me
next week when Warren Xtine is here. One of the things that happened in
twenty seventeen that I've forgotten about is that animals, dogs, cats, cows,
horses, donkeys, goats, chickens, they all act differently during the
solar eclipse because they get us to this. Yeah right, exactly, Yeah,
because it's all of a sudden, it's like, oh it's night time.
Wait, no, it's not nighttime. What is happening? Yeah?
Right, So there's something else that will just have something more or less in
your mind and protect yourself. So that's the story there. The Taliban is
in the news today. There is you know, the Afghanistani's there. We're
over there for as long as we were trying to find Lauden and then we
went to Iraq and wasted three trillion dollars. And so we've known off and
on about the Taliban and the what goes on in Afghanistan with women. Something
happened there this week that is just horrible. There are a lot of international
the UN and people who work around on human rights, the campaign to educate
people in Afghanistan as to how to deal with the Taliban, and so this
is something that will become well depending on how how people look at this.
But there is the British newspapers today and I don't see anything in the American
papers, but maybe you can find something jay about the Taliban has issued an
edict to resume stoning women because of their dress, because of their sexual activity,
and so women being stoned to death, the fact that there is an
Afghan human rights organization and there's a group around the world angths called Women's Window
of Hope. This went back, you know, the first time we were
aware of it. I suppose in a manner of speaking, I've not been
aware of it forever, because you know how these some of these people think.
But the nineteen nineties and then from that point and then when we were
involved over there, they sort of stopped. But this guy who's the supposed
supreme leader of the Taliban, he looks like a mongrel dog, and I'm
not sure I can pronounce his name, and I'm not sure that it's important
to pronounce his name. But the people in the Taliban have said that they
will start this weekend enforcing their interpretation of Sharia law, reintroducing public flogging,
stoning of women who are involved in things that are not supposed to be like
if you're involved in adultery, your husband brings you up, even just accused.
And they're saying this is a direct message to Western democracies. This is
like a commentary against others, not even them. Yeah, all right,
sonyway, that's a bit of disturbing news. So it's great business time for
Caldron. I would think the phones would be ringing off the hook and people
would be ordering nauseum. That's right. You know, it'll be twenty five
years this April, and we've been helping customers lose weight safely and effectively for

Calitrin at top loss dot com thanks to Elizabeth Miller here, one of
the great calitrinconsultants at top loss dot com. So this is where we kind
of nose around and see what we can share with you when it comes to
the things that are trending the social media's celebrity stuff. And it happens that's
Sydney Sweeney who has only recently cutting onto my radar because of that romantic comedy
that she did. Anybody anyone but you, Yes, anyone but you.
Yeah. So she has become all of a sudden this big season. That
movie now sort of a Chuck Curry or a movie man kind of classifies it
as a horror film. Did you see it, Jay? That'd be something
you go to see probably, Yeah, I haven't had a chance to see
it. Yeah, but it's definitely on my radar. And then she's been
big in She's a Euphoria, which I think is three seasons long now,
where the third season is about to try What's that about. It's like it's
a teen drama talking about different things with high school and relationships, peer pressure,
drug sex, all of those things. And then she was also in
the first season of White Lotus. We was she I saw a little of
that. I didn't see much of it, but anyway, she's twenty six
years old, has become very successful. It would seem not all of a
sudden, but for as far as I'm concerned, she's just shown up because
I liked her in that movie. So she's done something to help her mother
that was very, very sweet, and that's the story that's floating around trending
on social media. You're now you've been more aware of Sidney Sweeney than I
have been, Jay, But I thought this was so cute, so loving,
so wonderful to help her mother and to acknowledge her mother because her mother
was the person in her life that supported her, so to thank her mother
for her ongoing support. By the way, Sidney Sweeney has been nominated for
an Emmy. I think she is just everywhere now, it seems all of
a sudden. So last week she gave her mother a gift. Thanks mom
for supporting my career. I'm paying off the mortgage on your house and so
not amazing. I thought that was kind of cute. Actually, So you
know, success is great. Her parents both supported her, she said,
so, and this is something her dream goes back to when she was able
to walk and talk. And I think that's kind of nice. So,
my mother's name is Lisa, Stephen is her father's name, and they have
done a great thing for now. I'm not sure. I'm guessing that because
she paid off her mother's mortgage that her father and her mother are not living.
Yeah, they divorced. They separated within like the last few years,
kind of at the same time she was skyrocketing to fame. Yeah. Well,
but they're still a very close family, she said. Yeah. Yeah.
Well, her parents provided her, she said, with grounding and calming
moments in the commotion of her going through all the stuff that she's going through
in Hollywood. So good for her. Congratulations to her. Sidney Sweeney,

Raise your hands please. None of the crew that's involved in putting this program
together other than me. Remember Jimmy Dodd, his birthday was yesterday, and
I saw that I was eager to talk about him yesterday on the air,
but I wasn't here yesterday on the ear, so I figured, Okay,
we'll devote a moment or two him, but keep the celebration going. Well,
it's not so much that Jay Jay Kershner Dug Stefan. By the way,
hello, so twenty five before the top of the next hour on the
Good Day Program for Friday. It's the cultural impact of Disney, of the
Mickey mouse Club, of the people who were mousekatiers, not only then but
through the ages. If that's probably not through the ages, but you know,
through the years, the Mickey mouse Club has sort of survived. I
was wondering when we were excuse me, talking about Sidney Sweeney, whether she'd
ever been a mouse katier, because she would have been the type that they,
you know, became now mousekatiers. When was the last season of the
Mickey mouse Club. I don't know, it was a while ago, but
a lot of people are around now. I know that are stars and important
to figure Mey Spears, just Timberlake. Yeah, they were all, I
believe in the same season the Carrie Russell as well. Right, oh yeah,
I forgot about her. She'd become quite the dramatic actress. The others,
you know, have gone to music and acting and stuff, but she's
one of the more dramatics. Anyway, It's called Ran Gosling too well.
I mean, he does everything. He's so talented. I don't know he
was there. So anyhow, the city where the person who won the Mega
Millions lives has a store, and the store that sold the winning Mega Million's
ticket is going to take thirty thousand dollars the commissioned check and give it to
charity. So the ticket holder of the what is it one point one to
three billion dollar Mega millions price for the other night it was Tuesday night,
yeah right, The ticket was sold at a Shopwrite liquor store down a Neptune,
New Jersey. So the fellaw who runs the store, I think,
do I get from the drift of this that this is a chain? I
don't know. The Shopwright has a group of stores, grocery stores that are
in the mid Atlantic, so it must be that that's where they got this.
So anyway, this guy who runs the store says, we will take
that thirty thousand and give it directly to a group called for phil which is
a local food bank. So what's this is? That's wonderful? It is
wonderful. Yeah, good, good for him, good for them, good
for it. You know what I don't understand is why after the Mega Medians
drawing, why do people keep giving out the numbers? Who cares? I
heard? If I heard this once yesterday, I heard it a dozen times
listening to various Los Angeles radio sessions. All the winning number was blah blah
blah and blah blah and blah blah blah blah blah. Who cares? Right,
Well, some people still do because they may have won some money even
if they didn't win the actual jackpot, Because we've heard about this where lottery
tickets go unclaimed for a while, and or some people won the million,
the one million because they matched five of the numbers, and then they also
got the multipliers. So what was it? Recently? Was it the two
so they only got two million? Or was the three million? Something like
that. But sometimes people don't realize that if they didn't win the full jackpot,
that they still may have won some money. M m all right,
Okay. Yesterday also was the beginning of the baseball season. Anybody pay any
attention. I listened for a little while the Dodgers game. We wish Jennifer,
we're here. I was looking at the winners. The Yankees won,
boo, Montreal won, Okay, Boston beat Seattle. You know, I'm
looking at some of the games. But did anybody listen or watch? It's
much better if you listen to the games on the radio than it is to
watch them on TV. It just is there's something about that. All Angelians
were all excited because the guy who used to play for the Angels, whose
name I can't I couldn't pronounce, on a a great day, he's now
coming into a view here with Detroit and area's all excited. Yeah, yeah,
yeah. So there's a full slate of game is today, and so
I was trying to figure out what was going with March. I actually my
son in law last night and we were having dinner. We all met over
at Brendan's house, my daughter and her son and her husband and Jasper.
And Jasper is having a tough time because his mother's gone to New York on
business this weekend. He just doesn't understand where she is and why she's not
there. So he was grumb he oh, grumbler that he was. But
so Brendan had to come over and we had pizza and we were talking about
the match, because Brendan is a big basketball fan. So I said to
Brandon, I look, I said, I understand these How do you do
the brackets and what? So Matthew, being the college professor that he is,
got a piece of paper and a crayon because that was all there was
around, huhuh, And he went to see, well, see the one
team, and there's four brackets, and there's the top team and there's the
sixteenth in the team, and they play against each other and they just keep
eliminating and YadA, YadA, YadA, And so I kind of understood it
better, like the different rounds. Yeah, Like there there's a couple more
games, a few more games for the Sweet sixteen, and then the Elite
Eight starts next. We do know two of the games, four of the
teams that are already in the Elite Eight, Illinois versut Yukon and then Clemson
against Alabama. Right, I see that Alabama b to UNC. So that
was one of the things that was, if you will, a stunner.
It wasn't what you'd expect to have happened because they weren't rated that highly.
They weren't rated as highly as number one UNC right, so the fact they'd
be and apparently that's what the excitement is when it comes to these brackets,
because you can never tell, you know, what will happen on any given
day. So Yukon beat San Diego States and yahda YadA. So there's that
just time. This is not the place people turn to. This is not
ESPN, folks. Well, then in the women's bracket, Penn State is
going to be playing Villanova. In the Elite eight, Illinois against Washington State,
and then we'll figure out who the other teams and the Elite eight are
soon, right, Okay, So the Yankees beat Houston five to four.
Boo, I don't even you know what. Once I see that, I
think we've done enough. I don't want to keep going into the sports world
because I'm going to get upset. The Guardians beat the A's ate nothing.
Yeah, you know, there's a name this week that has surfaced. Maybe
from the middle to to the end of the week, I heard a lot
of coverage talk about it. Yesterday. Sam Bankman freed, remember him,
the guy that ran the cryptocurrency the scam. Basically he stick was he How
much did he steal? Like a billion dollars and more from them customers?
Right, So he got sentenced yesterday to twenty five years in the slammer.
This is if you look at the history of people who have been found guilty
of doing this sort of thing, this is among the longest imposed on somebody.
This is considered to be white collar crime, right, And a lot
of people don't have much sympathy for this guy because he was in ale during
the trial. He showed no more more. The judge said, I might
have only given you ten or eleven years except basically or a jackass, and
you didn't show any remorse. So you're getting max twenty five years co layer
and you have to forfeit eleven billion to victims. How much money does this
guy have, though, I think it's what I would be now as much
as he used to the company when it collapsed in twenty twenty two. You
know, there was this big collapse end of the company, but the company
was once valued at thirty two billion dollars. At its peak and then they
had to declare bankruptcy. M H. Well, a lot of that going
on. I think radio businesses. We see a lot of these companies going
back. A lot of businesses that had such a tough time during COVID have
never really recovered. You see that a lot in the restaurant business, some
of the insurance companies that kind of stuff. The home insurance market is crumbling
here in California, especially because California, the rules and rigs here is so
difficult that like everybody's leaving. They know, nobody wants to insure homes in
California anymore. So what are people going to do in areas where there it's
fire danger, or where there's you know, earthquake danger, or there's supposed
to be another two three four inches of rain. But that's when California insurance
like, you want the insurance if you live in an area where that might
possibly happen, that should be what insurance is for. Even living in Tennessee,
we didn't live in the area, but we had friends who lived in
a specific area that was prone to flooding. Therefore they could not get flooding
insurance. Speaking of Tennessee, Governor Bill leave There signed a bill yesterday that
blocks cities in Tennessee from enacting the local police reforms. There were I think
in Memphis. You lived in Nashville, right, or a suburb of Nashville.
Yeah, I lived in Nashville. Yeah. There was a traffic stop
ordinance that was created after the police beat up that kid Nichols. Remember that
story. Yeah? How long ago was that? That one wasn't Memphis,
Yeah, that wasn't Memphis. Yeah. So they passed the Republican in this
in the legislature passed this bill. It banned cities in Tennessee from enacting any
measure that prohibits or limits the ability of the police to take all necessary steps.
This is a mouthful that are a lawful under state and federal law to
fulfill the law, enforcements agency duties to prevent and detect crime, and apprehend
criminal offenders. Huh. That bill went back. It was about a year
after this guy Nichols died. It was January twenty twenty three when he died.
Yeah, right, So it doesn't specifically mention Memphis and the traffic stop
and that sort of thing. The interpretation is certainly kind of an up yours
to the ordinance that would have prevented cities all across Tennessee from implementing reforms.
So how do you read into that? What does that tell you? It
was dubbed the Driving Equality Act in honor of Tyree's that he pronounced his name
was the Tyree Nichols Tyree Nichols prohibiting police stops for minor infractions. So Memphis
enacted that. And then, you know, because this guy, twenty nine
year old black guy who was beaten up to a pulp by the Memphis police
during a traffic pistraatease, he got up and was started running trying to get
towards his mom's house. Right, yeah, anyway, So but this is
the kind of stuff that puts cities and states like Tennessee and Republicans in a
bad light because they you know, this looks like even though it maybe isn't
to give whoever they're due, but it looks like it's a really racist move.
Frankly, that's the way I look at it. So I just you
see all of this, and the officers were charged, they were discharged from
the Memphis PD. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. I just you
look at some of the big stories the week, and you see that and
you think yeah, and then they run out of time talking about it.
So saved by the bellier because I got some really strong thoughts about it,
but I'll keep it to myself. The neck Stefan Good Day download with Doug
and Jay Kirshner is made possible in part by Keltren, which is the safe
