The next Stefan Good Day download with Doug and Jay Kirshner is made possible in
part by Calitron, which is the safe way for you to lose weight and
keep it off. Gas prices are spiking. I was talking to fellow by
feel from for the Farm yesterday and he was telling me how the you know,
the companies manipulate. Somebody knows that the big oil companies manipulate the prices,
and they manipulated when they changed from what they call the winter blend to
the summer blend, and so there's sometimes there's a little bit of a gap
in the production when there isn't as much around. So now if you look
around even this last week, price has gone up around the country. I
noticed it in California this weekend, and here yesterday I filled up five to
six cents more this week than it was last week. So the average around
the country is three dollars thirty seven cents a gallon. In January, the
beginning of the year, the average price was two dollars ninety seven cents a
gallon. So that's a forty cent hike in four months. And who's responsible
for that, Well, in fact, you are because you buy the gas
right if they were, this is like one of those you're look in the
mirror, what are you talking about? Because I don't like electric cars,
and electric cars, the more of them there are, the less gasoline's going
to get sold. So it's like it's really a conundrum. And so as
you look at the cost here, we still pay less for gasoline generally speaking,
than most of the rest of the world. You know that the cost
of gasoline if you are able to take the formula, because they sell it
by the leader in England. But if you put all of the numbers together,
they pay about a bucket gallon more for gas there than we do here.
And it's the only places that excuse me is us is in the Middle
East where all of the lot of the gas production takes place, because where
all the oil is, yes, that's the oil. Who you can buy
a gallon of gas in Kuwait, Actually, well, go to Saudi Arabia
because they're the biggest producers. It's about a buck seventeen a gallon there at
the moment. So hello, and we're not all moving to Saudi Arabia,
that's for sure. Speaking of moving around, moving into the health zone for
a second, because I want to tell you what doctor Ken is going to
be speaking about those of you who are fortunate enough to have the expertise that
we provide. Here is a public service between Jack Stockwell and his hour and
Good Day Health and his philosophy about medicine, and then Ken Kronhaus, the
cardiologist who has his philosophy, his experience, his expertise, his training is
much different than jax is, but they both have something to say that is
valuable. So we talk with Ken this week about how to control your blood
pressure and how to deal with information when you know the information you've seen this
week is that there's going to be a shortage of a lot of drugs because
there isn't enough being produced. The drug companies are blaming the fact that they've
they've moved production from China to other places, and you know that's there is
always going to be blame, But is it something to be believable? All
you care about is that you can get the things that you need, and
I'm sure we will discuss that. The botox revolution. Do you know anybody
who uses botox? Jay? Yeah, I used to. I know a
people who do. So there's a whole bunch of people getting sick from counterfeit
botox. Yeah, you're going to good quality places who are yeah, getting
the good quality so and a lot can go wrong even when you do have
good quality things like when you're getting botox and relaxers in your forehead, sometimes
it can be put in the wrong area and your eyebrow droops a little bit.
Yep. Which also you know people get when you just sleep on the
same side for decades of your life, like if you're always if you're a
right side sleeper, you're going to notice the difference in your right eye from
your left eye. Anyway, one of the things that we were just talking
about was how Kelly Clarkson had such a difficult time when she was pregnant having
her babies. There are the stories floating around now about ozembic, you know,
the weight lit I don't even know what th Ozmpic's really supposed to be
for, but if you watch the commerce oh oh oh o zambic there are
for diabetes right, so now it's been used as a weight loss drug and
women claim that taking ozempics what no, no, I'm just talking about being
pregnant. This is one of the things we talk about this, sup was
to take it with it when you're pregnant. Well, women are taking it
to keep themselves and you imagine anything so self serving to keep themselves from gaining
too much weight? Can you imagine how crazy that is? Ken's going to
get off. I know you'll go off on a tute about that. You
know, he thinks that these weight loss drugs are great. You don't take
them when you're pregnant. Hello, yeah, no, I don't go bungo.
All right, So anyway, the Good Day Health programs Good Day Health
Show with doctor Ken Cronous and doctor Jack Stockwell two hours of information aimed at
helping you out every weekend on most of the same stations that carry this.
And if you don't happen to find it on those stations, you can go
to Good Day Healthshow dot com and hear the shows. You can hear the
podcast if you will, or the download of the information week to week.
That's Good Day Healthshow dot Com. Meanwhile, back at the Ranch, the
escalation of information about what happened during the Boston Marathon this week. I find
this to be obnoxious. There's a group that you can probably check out Jay
called Trail blaze hers. It's like Trailblaze with HR. You know about this
the group, Yeah, this was the group that their cheering section was basically
blocked off by the police officers on bikes. Yep. Yeah. And so
they are now suing the city of Newton, Massachusetts where it took place.
They're suing the Boston Marathon. They're suing not only the police in Newton,
but the police chief over racial discrimination that took place not only this year,
but the last four years. Apparently have seen this thing, using the word
escalate again. The cheering zone that they have set up for these women of
color, they've done it at least four years. I think I probably longer
ago than that. But the focus on the last four people, the last
four years, and the people that are watching the race. These various groups
and the women of different colors and different backgrounds were along in a particular place
along the running route, cheering zone if you will, at mile twenty one,
and so these trailblazers invited lots of different people, hundreds of spectators,
mostly people of color, to gather and cheer on the black women who were
running in the race. And so anyway, this is disgusting frankly, the
fact that it's even happening. You, Newton is a pretty upscale community,
and they take themselves pretty seriously and they think they're very liberal and progressive.
But that doesn't mean that they are just because they sort of say that they
are. These guys, it's pretty obvious looking at the video that they set
up a human barricade. The police officers on their bikes just stood in front
of this group, not anybody else, but in front of this group and
kept them from seeing what was going on and cheering on, you know,
specific people. So anyway, the lawsuit says that the scrutinizing the police profiling,
they said that they were deprived of a day of joy and festivity.
It became painful, humiliating, and traumatic. So maybe that's a little overstatement,
but it's pretty obvious if you look at them, that's how they felt.
No, yeah, yeah, I get that. Yeah. So the
BAA, the Boston Athletic Association is being sued the police, you know,
all this stuff. What is the matter with people? I guess I asked
that question a lot. Why in the world would you go to the trouble
unless you just are that thick? This is twenty twenty four. Hello,
ding ding, Ding, ding ding. This is no matter where it goes
the fact that all the attention has been instead of enjoying the results of the
race, now everybody's attention is turned toward this lawsuit. And so apparently they
had a bunch of meetings with the Boston Athletic Association to try to straighten this
out, and the police didn't and the BAA didn't. So this woman says,
Okay, I'm going to see ye. So that's what they're doing,
this this whole thing about race and sexual orientation and stuff. American Library Association
at least the annual list of the top ten most targeted books. Majority of
them were they were lb LGBTQ content. A book called Gender Queer top of
the list for the third year in a row of books that were banned.
Let's see, there's a bunch of other ones. A lot of these books.
It's not about it's not like about being gay. It just happens to
be a plot or one character happens to be part of the LGBTQ plus community.
The book Is Gay is another one. All Boys Aren't Blue, The
Perks of being a Wallflower. All of these books were banned. Oh that
was a great book turn into a movie. Fantastic. The perks of being
a wallflower. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger? That is in fact,
Yes, it's a big yes. Kelly Clarkson's song Kelly is in the
spotlight as her name is trending on social media. And so that's what we
do during this portion of every Isn't it every Are? Yeah, pretty much
every are day right of the program, we focus in on different social media
experiences and people who are getting attention. And Kelly's getting attention because she opened
up about various pregnancy experiences on her program. She got pretty emotional. The
other day. She was speaking about being hospitalized while she was pregnant. Actually,
Hillary Clinton was on her program. They were talking about the Arizona total
or near total abortion ban, and she said she'd been pregnant a couple of
times hospitalized both times. She said, literally, I asked God, if
this is the real thing, just take me and my son in the hospital,
because it was the worst thing. I don't, I can't. No
man can understand what it's like to give birth. We just we can't.
Ten women who haven't can't understand it. It's one of those things that unless
you truly go through and even with some people pregnancy, the way people handle
it and what happens to them and their body is so different from others that
the experiences I went through, some people who have gone through pregnancies couldn't even
understand it, and vice versa. Some things that other people went through I
wouldn't understand because I didn't. But even from not just the giving birth aspect,
with the whole pregnancy itself, like Kelly Clarkson suffered from, I forget
what it's called, but it's where your mourning sickness is like to an extreme.
Kate Middleton I believe, was hospitalized with it as well, where you
are vomiting so much, get dehydrated, your body is essentially shutting down.
There are some women deal with preclemsia, which can lead to strokes and all
of that because of high blood pressure that just goes to an extreme, extreme
level, and then the lower level, which is still extreme, is just
stational hypertension. There's just stational hype diabetes. It's really amazing what you know,
you get down to brass tacks, the experiences that you have and that
you share the like experiences that women can share and talk about. But then
there's more of a focus. When I look at it, I think of
the wonder. You know, I wasn't being facetious when I said the sun.
Everything revolves around the suner without the sun, you got nothing. And
think of all the things that have developed, like the human species, how
our bodies work, how you become pregnant, how a baby evolves for those
nine months inside of your body. It's amazing how things are reproduced. Do
you I mean this is people say it's part of the natural selection of things.
It's more than that. It's much deeper than that. It's profound when
you think about it, and you know, these these discussions are important discussions.
Right We're talking about the near abortion band in Arizona, and a lot
of people who are for stuff like that, they don't take into account everything
that truly happens, like pregnancy can kill people, pregnancy has killed people.
And then and then in the sense of a lot of states Minnesota, there's
like no nothing. But when if you are raped by somebody and a baby
has produced, you have to co parent with your baby. Some states allow
there to be a criminal conviction before they suffer the ties of that. Some
states are just you know, clear evidence, but for the most part,
a lot of people would have to co parent with the rapists if there was
no conviction. Unless you're in Minnesota, you have to coparent no matter what.
That's one of the side stories of Law and Order SVU where Olivia Benson's
whether she's that's the name of the character that that's their face plays and so
that's she was raped and the baby came out of the rape, and so
you know, you think about that and just all those things get you to
think. This is a thinking moment here and good day, and thanks to
Kelly Collection for bringing that up. Frankly, so it's great business time for
Caldron. I would think the phones would be bringing off the hook and people
would be ordering nauseum. That's right. You know, it'd be twenty five

of the great Calatrin consultants at top loss dot com. Make your children,
your grandchildren curious, somehow get them into that curious place so they want to
know the answer to this, and they want to know the answer to that,
And don't shut them down for asking questions like oh no. At a
certain age, the child always gets to like the well why why right?
Yeah, going, let it, let your imagination go with it, and
then ask them, well why do you think? Don't just be like stop
asking me that. Yeah. No, that's where you get into trouble,
and that's you know, you shut people down. That's when they start figuring.
They don't necessarily figure things out the right way, but they figure things
out and sometimes the results of that are not too relatable, shall we say,
speaking of relatable, the National Association of Broadcasters having their annual convention,
the Radio Convention. They have a radio convention or one that focuses on radio
a lot in the spring and the fall they have their Television Convention, or
Radio and TV or in both of them, but there's a different focus.
And so as the continuing focus on AM radio becomes a big discussion topic,
not only the NAB Show, but on Capitol Hill, there is in the
House of Representatives this week the bipartisan legislative push which is going to get through
be voted. It'll be mandated in all cars, and so that's something that
we've certainly been talking about here for a year or more since it first came
out that three or four of the major manufacturers didn't even want to have AM.
So this past weekend, because I told you the story about my daughter
getting in the car crash last week and her car getting total and they haven't
got a new car yet, so I have them using my car out there,
and so I rented a car. I rent it. I always when
I walk around the lot I usually rent from enterprise. I like them because
they're efficient, they're clean, they're neat, they just I like them.
So the ladies bringing me out into the area where the cars and I always
buy. I always rent. Like they have a you know, I forgot
what they call it, but it's you let us pick. You pay them
X number of dollars and they'll pick a car for you. And I like
that because oftentimes you get more value that way. And I like to drive
a nice car. So they put me into a Ford. It was an
suv and damned if I couldn't find the AM radio. It took me fifteen
minutes. There's no instruction on the screen, but the AM is there because
at the bottom of the screen as I'm looking at what they've got set up
already, there were a couple of AM stations, and I like to listen
in Los Angeles KFI. I think it's the best talk station, frankly in
a major market in the country, free and so, but I couldn't find
it. I kept looking and it was very frustrating. It's like they're trying
to make it difficult to use AM radio, and it is very annoying.
So anyway, this just because they mandate AM radio in cars doesn't mean it's
going to be easy for you to find it or use it. It's very
interesting how unsubtle they are when it comes out. Maybe I'm just too I'm
too sensitive to it. Speaking of being sensitive, a lot to talk this
week as the jurors find their way into the trial. I thought it was
interesting because the news media has been outside the courthouse interviewing the people who are
there for jury selection in the Donald Trump trial. Whatever you want to call
it, a fiasco, it's a circus, and so hundreds of potential jurors
have been basically pushed out. They need to find twelve people in six alternates.
And so one of the people that was dismissed from the jury pool for
job related reasons was interviewed and the question was what did you think when you
saw Donald Trump in person? And this lady said it was jarring to see
him there. She was about thirty feet from Trump. She said, I'd
never seen him in person before. And you see somebody blown up larger than
life in the news media for so many years, to see him and then
human, Yeah, they're human beings exactly the person. Yeah, right,
It's amazing how we hold people to be godlike. I don't know whether that's
my theme today, thinking of the Sun and God and how everything works.
But you know, and I think sometimes these people have a complex that sort
of is like they have a God complex that they are all powerful. And
I'm not saying that that's just for Trump. I think we all know people
in our lives who are not necessarily religious leaders, but they they you know,
they want they want you to pay attention to them. It's like they
were missing something when they were kids. They're a penny attention. Oh come
on, mommy, mobby, I am sitting over here and play attention.
Pay attention to me. Anyway, speaking of religious leaders, there was an
attack on a group of religious leaders in Sydney, Australia. This is interesting.
It was a terror related incident, so the police say, and they're
looking for information. So the reason I bring this up is because there's extremist
activity going on all over the world. Have you notice that just a dis
like jarring stuff. The Russian thing, what's going on in the Middle East,
and the tentacles of the Iranians and what's going on with them, and
then this stuff that's going on in Australia. There have been all kinds of
things going on. So they have the new Joint Counter Terrorism Team in Australia
that's investigating of the stuff that's going on stabbings and shootings. And this kid
was sixteen years older the rest of the other day, restrained by members of
the congregation in a church, so he just goes after him. Yeah,
during a servant a sermon in the church. And we've seen this happening a
lot. You would think that a church would be off limits a church,
would it, Just it isn't. And a lot of this when it comes
to the whole terror organizations of things. Sometimes it is an actual member or
they are members of an organization. Other times it's people who are idolizing these
organizations and want to be a part of it, and so they act independently
on an unofficial behalf of these organizations. Mm hm, I don't know.
I just don't know. The world is so damn crazy and people are so
crazy. You let me go back to Trump for a second, I know,
speaking of crazy. So there's also some information that's out today that fifty
seven percent of the people who live in this country and This is a large
poll, sixteen thousand people. I think there were, and this is Republicans
and Democrats pretty much equally matched. Fifty seven percent of Americans, which is
a new high say Trump's crimes are serious. And yet if you talk to
people, I had a conversation with somebody yesterday who's a very very good friend
of mine, and I don't know how we got off on this because we
don't usually talk politics because he knows where I'm coming from, and it isn't
where he's coming from. And so if you're good friends, you just don't
have those conversations. Why bother right, it doesn't There are some people who
ruin friendships because they don't like you because you are supporting this political that's sick,
I don't share the same opinion. Then you don't be a part of
their life. That people have that kind of mentality. It's very sad,
Yeah, it really is. So anyway, there's a u gov poll that's
out that shows this majority saying that he shouldn't be allowed to be president if
he is convicted. So is this the trial? Is this the lynchpin trial?
For a lot of people, it is the hush money thing? Is
a you know, well, if he was convicted, he wouldn't be allowed
to vote, right, So if you're not even allowed to vote, how
can you be able to run for president? When you just look at it
like that, take the Trump out of it. If you're in a gray
area, felon, you are not allowed to vote, So how would you
be able to still run if you can't even vote? I don't know.
This is a gray area obviously, never has there's no precedent times. Yeah,
it really is the worst phrase. Yeah, what unprecedented unprecedented times?
These are unprecedented times. In Las Vegas, a lawyer and his wife were
killed during a custody fight for children from their previous marriages. This is the
wackiest Today's whack day, I guess is Yeah, this is this is almost
a movie kind of situation. Yeah. Yeah, one of the it was
the woman's They were there fighting for the custody of the women's children from a
previous marriage and this has been a long like going on for years, and
they were shot during this hearing by the woman's former father in law who was
acting as a lawyer, who is a lawyer and was a lawyer in these
is a movie, Yeah, he shot them and then turned the gun on
himself. Seventy seven years old, Joseph Houston shot himself. This is a
courtroom. I thought you couldn't bring guns. They have those metal detectives.
Go into the courtroom, they get the guns in there. Yeah, and
so her parents are going to continue her their daughter's fight for custody of her
children because they were like, no, she was never going to give up
on them. It's a whole situation. And apparently they feel that they need
to get these kids out of that family with their father and I priss their
biological grandfather. Yeah. Tivery change and venue for sure. Why people in
their performances sad strange? Why is it the older we get, it feels
like a good quality sleep becomes harder and harder to come by. It just
becomes more difficult to get that well rested look when you wake up in the
morning because you're not really feeling well rested. My pillow can change that.
As somebody who suffers from chronic illness, sleep and quality sleep is really hard
to come by. But here's the thing. My pillow is probably one of
my favorite items in my home home. I love mypellows. Pillow It is
one of those things where I can change the shape of it to really create
on my neck if that's what I'm needing. The Mypellow pillow is just so
incredible. But that's not all they are known for. They have mattress toppers,
they have down comforters, they have blankets. It is like the quality
sleep shop. I also have a pair of my slippers. They are the
most comfortable things. It is like walking on clouds. Check it out.
You can also get into their biggest sale ever where you can save up to
fifty percent. Just enter the promo code at DS when you go to mypellow
dot com. It's social media time focused on this couple. First of all,
who accidentally got divorced? We're talking about divorces and stuff, and that
last story wasn't very fun. This is kind of funny in a manner of
speaking. Jay, the lawyer clicked the wrong button on an online portal,
hy so the wrong case. It was the wrong couple, right, Yeah,
a final order for a divorce of a former couple mister missus Williams accidentally
applied for by solicitors at this law firm. They checked in and clicked the
wrong button. The error was made after the lawyers intended to complete a divorce
for another client but opened the case file by a mistake, and Missus Williams
is split in twenty twenty three after twenty one years together, middle of sorting
out financial arrangements. When the accidental divorce was granted to them. They were
not I mean, they were not together anymore heading for a divorce, but
they were still trying to finalize a lot of theirs. All of a sudden
like, oh, we're divorced. I know. A lot of judges will
declare people legally separated, legally simple while they try to so that they can
be free to go do you know, other things and meet other people and
all of that stuff. But they're not officially divorced until they finish all of
the monetary stuff and division of assets. Technology, Ain't it grand? All
right? Here's the top psychology group urging technology companies to take greater steps to
protect adolescents mental health. Another argument here of many, one of many arguments
about social media platforms and the fact that they are not suitable for young people,
they are built for adults. And then we go on and on.
This is like an endless discussion Jay, the notifications that are there to young
people who's developing brains are less able to disengage from a lot of experiences,
so they see these things, they're distracted. But I can see it in
miles all the time. Whenever we're in a restaurant, let's say it's a
place's doing sports things. He's like mesmerized, like in a trance looking at
this stuff. Dolts are that way too, So it's worse when it comes
to two kids and all of that stuff, and then your self worth.
And we've I don't know if you've heard of doom scrolling where you just kind
of scroll through and you just read all this awful stuff on social media and
it's like, what's it all about? Yeah? Yeah, So anyway,
be careful of this technology. We can say it one hundred times a day.
It means something to some folks and it doesn't mean anything to other folks
because they use these tools. Well, a lot of parents use this stuff
as a babysitter for their children. As much as you know, it's crazy
stuff, but it is a it's something that is all over the social media.
Part of the technology of the devices that certainly has become probably the most
important landmark in all of these discussions about Facebook and Instagram and you know,
even WhatsApp. But the X stuff, it's the average teenagers fire, yeah,
becoming more so, it would seem. So we're not even on X
right were we have? We are? We are, But the main ones
are meta owned Facebook and Instagram. But when you go look at X,
it is just anger, anger, people fighting, violence, silent videos.
It's just my goodness, it's not a happy place anymore. No, and
why is what's the whole why? What's the reason for? Why are we
doing this to ourselves? Here's information for seventy three million of the former AT
and T customers. This information. Remember we talked about this last week about
how it all got posted on the dark web, the data breach, and
so AT and T is trying to somehow rather keep this thing under control,
but because the stuff keeps getting leaked on the dark web, AT and T
finally confirmed that seven and a half million customers have who are account holders are
vulnerable. So if I were an AT and E customer, I'd be getting
out of there in the next five minutes, frankly. So there we bring
you updated on at least that situation. The next Stefan Good Day download with
