00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:13.240
Yeah, ripped off news didn't need
advice, so you don't have come a

2
00:00:13.320 --> 00:00:20.079
run anxious astas as you can.
Shooter's gonna help. Come man, this

00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:27.839
is the Troubleshooter Show. No,
Tom Martino, Hi, Tom Martino here,

4
00:00:27.879 --> 00:00:30.640
welcome to the show. We got
all kinds of stuff going on.

5
00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:36.000
Hey, did you have a great
weekend? So many people took off My

6
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:40.200
god, they were all on the
roads. But we're back to back to

7
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:44.479
life right. In fact, I
got a saying here that I want you

8
00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:51.759
to uh, I want you to
adhere to and that is a master Listen

9
00:00:51.799 --> 00:01:00.159
to me. In the art of
living draws no sharp distinction between work and

10
00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:11.439
play. I know you're thinking that
can't be no distinction between labor and leisure,

11
00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:21.400
or mind and body. I don't
think me to education and recreation.

12
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:27.079
Why you hardly know which is which, and you simply pursue all of them

13
00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:32.840
with happiness and gratitude? Am I
am I too much? Pollyanna? Why

14
00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:34.840
what? What? Why do you
say it wouldn't work for you? Doc?

15
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:37.840
Well, I don't think. I
don't think what I did for work

16
00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:41.239
would be very Oh come on,
you loved it? No, no,

17
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:44.599
but it wouldn't be I did love
it, but it wouldn't be play.

18
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:49.599
I think that would be a little
bit whin up in jail. You know

19
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:55.239
what I'm saying. You make you
make no sharp distinction between work and play,

20
00:01:55.439 --> 00:02:01.840
meaning that your enjoyment, your attitude, your gratitude, your energy,

21
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:10.439
your dedication, your passion is equal. You definitely don't take it lightly when

22
00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:15.840
you're going to deliver babies as a
doctor, or like Paul here the waterman,

23
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:19.039
you're going to put in a water
system. I mean, truly,

24
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:23.000
if we could all just enjoy what
we do and do what we enjoy.

25
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:27.400
Now again, there are some people
saying, are you kidding me? Tom,

26
00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:30.039
I'm at a factory and I'm working
my ass off. How dare you?

27
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:35.639
I mean, I understand that,
but there are ways that we can

28
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:42.319
do that. You know that brings
up an interesting study about workers. Do

29
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:46.560
you know? Now? This is
according to Fortune Magazine, with all of

30
00:02:46.599 --> 00:03:00.400
their research, sixty percent of employees
cannot go thirty minutes without being distracted without

31
00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:04.599
some kind of a mental break in
what they're doing. Now, I must

32
00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:08.800
be some kind of freak because I
get like involved in something and I can't

33
00:03:08.840 --> 00:03:14.199
let it go. I mean,
I just shut everything out sometimes. But

34
00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:23.159
think about that, sixty sixty percent
of the employees they can't go and they're

35
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:30.319
interrupted with everything everything, Like social
media is number one distraction right now for

36
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:35.240
people at work. Can you imagine
paying somebody to work for you, and

37
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:46.439
every ten minutes or so they're going
on social media or sometimes it's a game.

38
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:59.919
They're smartphone for anything and then surfing
the internet and pretending they're working anyway.

39
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:05.039
Three three seven to one three talk
is our number seven one three eight

40
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:11.159
two five five, or you can
call three oh three Martino three oh three

41
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:16.759
six two seven eight four six six. Sharon is on the line right now,

42
00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:20.800
wants to talk about She called in
a week ago and she was working

43
00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:24.480
with Deputy Doc on something. Doc. Do you know what this is about?

44
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:28.759
I do. Let's let Sharon speak. Okay, Sharon, this has

45
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:34.879
to do with a health related meeting
put on by a chiropractor in Boulder,

46
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:40.439
right or excuse me. This is
Boulder, Boulder City, Nevada. You

47
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:44.959
signed up for a three year program
for six grand and man, I gotta

48
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:50.360
tell you, I am so oh
god. It's not just chiropractors, but

49
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:56.519
but all of these programs that people
get hooked into In my opinion, when

50
00:04:56.560 --> 00:04:59.839
it has to do with health and
wellness, people should have a back to

51
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:03.160
or be able to get out of
any contract. They should never be held

52
00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:06.519
to them all in this program.
They don't like Sharon. What's going on?

53
00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:12.879
What happened when you How did you
find out about this Boulder City,

54
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:18.439
Nevada program? Well? I got
a card in the mail and it was

55
00:05:19.120 --> 00:05:24.519
about a diabetic meeting. It was
very close to where I live, so

56
00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:29.519
I signed up for it, and
you know, he gave a two hour

57
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:32.240
talk. It was very importing and
he said he could help you with your

58
00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:41.000
diabetes. Well he said, uh, he can't cure anything, but okay,

59
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:46.399
well help with all the issues people
were having. It wasn't just diabetic

60
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:54.279
problems, it was other health issues
too. He was saying that, you

61
00:05:54.319 --> 00:06:00.360
know, with this program he could
help. And what did the program?

62
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:03.800
What did the program entail? By
the way, our numbers three all three

63
00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:10.319
seven one three talk three all three
seven to one three eight two five five.

64
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:15.959
What did the program entail? Well, it entailed first of all,

65
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:23.079
if you signed up, you got
a large uh container of a powdered drink

66
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:29.519
mix and then you mix it with
water or juice. My daughter was going

67
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:32.120
to sign up with me, and
then I found out she didn't like it.

68
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:35.199
She didn't want to go through the
program. What else in addition to

69
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:39.759
the powder drink? What else did
you do? Yeah? Also they were

70
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:46.439
to send some vitamins that you swallow, and I don't know what else because

71
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:50.519
I canceled it right away. I
didn't want it because after it Okay,

72
00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:57.040
now did it have anything to do
since he's a chiropractor with any chiropractic adjustments

73
00:06:57.519 --> 00:07:01.480
or exams? Or was it mainly
just a powdered drink mix and settlements?

74
00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:06.720
You could have some blood work and
you can have an exam. Now that

75
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:13.720
was part of the program. Yes, regular blood work or what? Well?

76
00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:17.759
I'm not sure because I didn't get
into that. I thought, okay,

77
00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:23.399
fine, you so so you basically
wanted out. So what happened?

78
00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:26.560
Did you read the program and you
weren't able to get out or what?

79
00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:35.120
Yes, he had marked some things
on the sheet that I signed, and

80
00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:41.199
he had marked I was a VIP
member and things like that, and I

81
00:07:41.399 --> 00:07:45.319
was not, but he was in
a hurry. How long you changed your

82
00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:50.800
mind when right after you signed it? No, I looked over the whole

83
00:07:50.839 --> 00:07:57.279
program and read some detailed information.
Was it about a week? What give

84
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:01.399
me a time frame? About a
week? Yeah? And then I and

85
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:05.199
then and then when you called a
week later to get out of it,

86
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:11.959
Well, Tom, she had put
down one thousand dollars and then was obligated

87
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:16.000
for another six thousand dollars for the
remainder of the program, and she wanted

88
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:22.079
to get all of that back.
Okay. And what did they say,

89
00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:24.800
Yester, the doc. Did you
ever talk to him? Well, Sharon

90
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.600
was unable to. I gave the
I talked to them, and Sharon,

91
00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:35.679
how long was it after I talked
to them that they called you? They

92
00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:39.679
called me that same day, Yeah, the same way. What happened when

93
00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:46.399
they called Well, first of all, they charged me two thousand dollars on

94
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:50.559
my credit card the day after I
signed the contract, and then I was

95
00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:56.480
shocked about that. And then when
doctor Kent called, Well, so you

96
00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:03.200
had two thousand dollars paid in right
right away? Yeah? Yeah? And

97
00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:09.000
did you expect well, how were
you expecting to pay for it? Well?

98
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:11.120
I was going to have my daughter
help me pay for it, okay,

99
00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:15.200
but your credit card was charged.
You must have known they were going

100
00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:18.679
to do something if you gave him
your credit card, that's true. But

101
00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:24.600
he told me I had three and
a half to four years to pay it

102
00:09:24.639 --> 00:09:28.960
off. Well, hold on,
it was a six thousand dollars program.

103
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:33.440
They took two thousand the day later, right, yes, And then how

104
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:41.879
were you supposed to pay the other
four thousand? Pay monthly? Okay?

105
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:48.080
And how much monthly? It was
two hundred dollars okay? So anyway,

106
00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:54.120
what what happened then you changed your
mind? Basically when you wanted to cancel?

107
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:58.759
Did they say they would get to
keep some money. No, they

108
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:01.720
just said it cancel it. It's
not possible, okay. So anyway,

109
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:05.600
what happened then? Do we have
a good result here? After doc called

110
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:09.600
or what? Yes? Yes,
Uh, well yeah, she gave me

111
00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:18.240
his number and I did call him, and uh he called uh the company

112
00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:22.440
and then said that, uh,
you know, he was representing me and

113
00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:30.200
that I wanted to get out of
the program, and so uh you know,

114
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:35.879
uh they had called me back a
couple of times because I didn't sign

115
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:39.440
some of the paperwork there. Nice, So what what ended up happening?

116
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:43.840
I'm curious? Oh yes, okay, so uh they let me out of

117
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:50.000
the program. They returned my money. Oh my doc, this is great

118
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:54.240
news, man, that's why.
Great way to start off the week.

119
00:10:54.320 --> 00:11:01.879
Tom. Oh, so she got
the six thousand dollars taking away, plus

120
00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:07.879
you had home money back that she
had given them. Yeah, and plus

121
00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:13.120
I didn't have that oh the two
hundred of a month. Oh my gosh.

122
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:16.759
Oh hey, I am so happy
you call. I am so happy

123

00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:31.559
of people are paying too much,
but some people are paying and they're getting

153
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:37.120
less coverage. Three oh three nine
nine six nine thousand. That's zero three

154
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:43.200
nine nine six nine thousand a free
insurance check up. Now, let's talk

155
00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:48.840
about this issue when it comes to
I mean, these health programs. Let

156
00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:50.519
me just put it, say it
like it is. So I go to

157
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:54.960
Grossman Wellness and I think I pay
around three hundred bucks a month. Some

158
00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:56.480
some programs are a little more a
little less, depending on what you do.

159
00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:00.159
And I get all my blood work. In fact, I just had

160
00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:03.360
a telehealth appointment this morning with doctor
Grossman, where I get on the phone

161
00:14:03.720 --> 00:14:07.279
at zoom. Now I can go
in if I want to, but he

162
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:09.039
knows me well enough, and we
you know, I get my yearly check

163
00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:13.360
up and then I get my every
three month blood work and consultations. So

164
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:16.879
I was able with doctor Grossman to
go over my blood work and he tells

165
00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:18.600
me what's good and what's bad.
There's nothing really bad because if you do

166
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:22.960
it every three months, you dial
in your supplements which are included in the

167
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:26.440
program, and your prescriptions also included. And you know, it's just a

168
00:14:26.480 --> 00:14:31.600
wonderful thing. Right. But if
I told Grossman Wellness tomorrow I want to

169
00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:33.679
get out of the program, I'd
be out. There's no penalty, there's

170
00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:37.840
no fast talk, and there's no
promises. You know that I'm going to

171
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:41.679
cure this or cure that, although
I've never been in better health, and

172
00:14:41.720 --> 00:14:45.600
I thank God for that. But
here's the other thing. Denverregen dot com

173
00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:50.440
now Grossmanwellness dot com is open to
anyone. Okay, Now, Denver Regen

174
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:54.879
does regenerative medicine hair restoration, and
they also do UH. They do things

175
00:14:54.960 --> 00:15:01.120
like weight loss with semiglutide which is
UH which is compounded, orpetide which is

176
00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:03.960
compound. They do a monthly fee. You change your mind, you're out.

177
00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:09.840
Here's what I'm saying. Any legitimate
health program, if you're a chiropractor,

178
00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:13.919
no matter who or what you are, they should never penalize you for

179
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:20.519
getting out. They should not require
a commitment from you whatsoever. The first

180
00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:26.879
red flag and you should run is
when they require you to sign up with

181
00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:33.279
a penalty if you don't complete,
regardless of your satisfaction, just don't do

182
00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:37.279
it. Period. It is a
sure sign of a bad sign. Don't

183
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:43.480
do it. It's that simple.
Can you imagine. I mean, there

184
00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:52.039
are so many chiropractors that are doing
things like neuropathy treatments and all kinds of

185
00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:58.799
peripheral neuropathy treatments with lights and massage
or lasers or this or that, or

186
00:15:58.799 --> 00:16:03.159
they're talking about type two diabetics and
helping them. I'm not saying there's no

187
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:08.240
benefit to any of these programs,
but if they truly have benefit, truly,

188
00:16:08.879 --> 00:16:15.000
then they should allow a patient to
go month by month period. That's

189
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:19.240
it, month by month. And
if you don't like it, you're out.

190
00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:23.320
That's what they should do. And
I am sick and tired of what

191
00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:30.000
I call healthcare. Charlatan's now,
let's go to the phones, and we

192
00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:33.919
have Joey with a waterline issue.
Joey, what's going on? Welcome to

193
00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:38.200
the show, Joey, what's going
on? Well? I want to say

194
00:16:38.200 --> 00:16:44.360
I admire your program, listening to
you often. Thank you you resolve these

195
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:49.720
problems. I do have a problem
with the Denver led program. Yeah,

196
00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:57.480
I never had a leak in my
line at my house and ventures Ajventchers Incorporated.

197
00:16:59.159 --> 00:17:03.480
Are you talking about Denver Water Department? Right? It's sir, and

198
00:17:03.480 --> 00:17:07.480
and their their anti lead program meaning
what the pictures they give you with the

199
00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:10.799
filters or what? What are you
talking about, Paul? Do you know

200
00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:15.359
about their anti Paul doubting? Of
course? Is a water pro is an

201
00:17:15.400 --> 00:17:18.000
expert at water quality? What does
that lead program consist of? Do you

202
00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:21.799
know? In Denver? And Paul, they mail filters out to people in

203
00:17:21.839 --> 00:17:26.160
neighborhoods where they have old water lines
and then the lead exceeds the and they

204
00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:30.480
put the stags for me, these
filters are for pictures for drinker filter right

205
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:33.000
right now, let me just ask
them real quick before I let Joey continue.

206
00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:37.640
Can let be absorbed into your skin? If you in addition to drinking

207
00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:41.039
water, is lead has to be
bad? No? Yes, something that

208
00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:44.720
you don't want to drink. It's
a it's a it's not terrible for bathing.

209
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:48.480
It's just shows. It's basically it's
metal does all solid. You can't

210
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:49.759
see it, so it's not going
to be absorbed in your Okay, good,

211
00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:53.799
good? So so go ahead,
Joey? So am I allowed to

212
00:17:53.839 --> 00:17:57.759
give their phone number over the line. AJ Ventures Incorporated. Now, but

213
00:17:57.880 --> 00:18:03.480
what did ajres what do they have
to do with Denver Water? Well,

214
00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:06.920
Denver Water is doing the repair on
the lines. They mark the streets,

215
00:18:06.960 --> 00:18:10.640
they come down with paint and oh, so they're repairing your old lines.

216
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:14.680
Well, they're trying to. They're
trying. They're checking the lines. They're

217
00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:18.119
drilling into the ground and they're checking
the lines to see if there's any lead

218
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:22.880
in them. They didn't find any
lead in my lines. They found that

219
00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:27.000
it was a copper okay, line, So they're checking for lead so they

220
00:18:27.079 --> 00:18:33.039
can eventually replace it. Is that
right? I'd imagine or fix the fittings

221
00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:37.519
that are down there. I have
pictures of the fittings and the holes.

222
00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:40.759
I went in the front yard when
they're and who's aj Ventures? Is that

223
00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:45.039
the contractor they've used. That's the
contractor they used. They came out to

224
00:18:45.079 --> 00:18:49.240
my house for the last three weeks
since June. And what does aj ventures

225
00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:53.799
do? They did the excavating,
Yes, okay, so what is your

226
00:18:53.880 --> 00:18:59.720
issue with them? They do a
vack truck and they they make holes all

227
00:18:59.759 --> 00:19:04.319
the way down to your water line. And on June twentieth, I pictured

228
00:19:04.359 --> 00:19:11.119
them blocking my driveway and they were
using a shop back truck and this truck

229
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:15.559
sucks the dirt up all the way
down to the water line. Well,

230
00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:22.160
I never had any outrageous bills or
any leaks or anything, but I did

231
00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:25.599
notice. I took pictures of the
holes and took pictures of all the lines.

232
00:19:26.200 --> 00:19:29.839
And after they were done with that
hole in the front, there was

233
00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:33.640
water coming up out of that particular
hole by the fence. So they tried

234
00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:37.119
to blame it on Denver Water dember
Waters throw it back at them. They

235
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:40.920
just keep going back and forth and
then find case. So let me get

236
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:44.160
this straight. I think I know
where you're going with this. Are you

237
00:19:44.359 --> 00:19:52.240
saying, after aj Ventures did work
on your waterline for Denver Water Department,

238
00:19:52.680 --> 00:19:56.079
they broke a hole. You think
they made a hole in it or made

239
00:19:56.119 --> 00:20:00.880
it worse, and now you're getting
bills for that. Yeah, it's been

240
00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:03.079
three weeks, almost four weeks going
on a month. Now, how much

241
00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:07.960
more is your bill? Now?
I haven't got one yet, but they

242
00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:11.680
called me kind of saying, I'll
give you one hundred and fifty dollars,

243
00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:15.519
but the problem is yours. You
You have to fix that line. Who

244
00:20:15.680 --> 00:20:19.160
said that dember Waters called. They
called me on the phone at a different

245
00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:25.519
time. Now, so they're saying
that your service line is to blame and

246
00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:30.400
that's your responsibility. Yes, Paul, Paul, you know a lot about

247
00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:37.480
this. Service lines, whether sewer
or water, are ours responsibility. Responsibility

248
00:20:37.599 --> 00:20:42.519
right? But if truly right,
if this company went out and they did

249
00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:47.160
the excavation and damaged it and damaged
it, so they wanted to inspect the

250
00:20:47.160 --> 00:20:48.680
line to see the type of line, the type of pipe was there.

251
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:52.799
Based upon that pipe, did it
have to be replaced or not? And

252
00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:57.799
they concluded it was copper. But
after they after they filled everything up,

253
00:20:59.559 --> 00:21:03.079
he started to seeing water come to
the surface. And they're denying all responsibility.

254
00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:07.480
Now, do you know if they're
where the break in your line is?

255
00:21:08.160 --> 00:21:15.559
Yeah, it's about four feet from
the watermere. It's about four feet

256
00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:19.559
now is that anywhere near where they
were probing? Oh? Yeah, I

257
00:21:19.720 --> 00:21:23.240
have pictures of the holes that they
done, four holes, and they're denying

258
00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:26.640
all. I mean, what come
on, there's no kind of coincidence like

259
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:30.799
this. Hang on a second,
man, this sucks, Just hang on.

260
00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:33.640
Did they pull a permit? Did
they when they came out? Did

261
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.480
you that's a good question. Did
they have a piece of paper taped to

262
00:21:37.519 --> 00:21:40.160
your door? Was there a permit
pulled? Do they have to if they're

263
00:21:40.160 --> 00:21:44.640
working for the city, That's my
question. I would do go ahead.

264
00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:48.759
They didn't give me any kind of
permit. Did they tell you your line

265
00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:52.680
is broken? No, they didn't
say any any such thing, but they

266
00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:57.880
said it. Why then, why
did they say it's your responsibility? They

267
00:21:59.400 --> 00:22:02.519
just keep going back and forth.
Like I said, they point to Denver

268
00:22:02.640 --> 00:22:07.440
Water. Denver Water says it's uh, Denver Water says it's aj Ventures.

269
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:11.440
Ajventure says it's the Denver Water.
They've all come to visit with me over

270
00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:15.720
the last two three weeks. They
keep coming up and talking to me that

271
00:22:15.759 --> 00:22:21.200
they're there. Actually they had a
supervisor that did say for them to pick

272
00:22:21.400 --> 00:22:25.119
that line. And they went back
and forth a couple more times. And

273
00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:27.680
then after the fourth of July weekend
they came, both of them. They

274
00:22:27.720 --> 00:22:30.559
all called me and said it's basically
your fault. Will get all right,

275
00:22:30.599 --> 00:22:33.559
hold on, we got more coming
up and we're gonna we're gonna tackle this

283
00:23:18.720 --> 00:23:26.559
You're a troubleshooter. Now. This
waterline issue sucks, Joey. Here's the

284
00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:32.599
bottom line. These people can't just
come back and say it's your responsibility.

285
00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:37.440
Now, technically it is if it's
your service line. But if they broke

286
00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:42.799
it, they should fix it.
The problem is proving it. You're gonna

287
00:23:42.839 --> 00:23:47.759
have to have someone look at it
and do all of that excavating to find

288
00:23:47.759 --> 00:23:51.640
out where the leak is and how
it was caused. How old is your

289
00:23:51.680 --> 00:23:56.640
waterline? Do you know? I
bought the house in two thousand and seven

290
00:23:56.240 --> 00:24:07.480
and I've towlds the house. I
think it's nineteen probably forty fifty, nineteen

291
00:24:07.480 --> 00:24:11.400
forty five maybe nineteen fifty. So
it's possible you have an old water line

292
00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:18.519
and by them digging up to check
it disturbed it and broke it. Now

293
00:24:18.279 --> 00:24:25.640
the rub is this does depreciation apply
here? Can they say? Well,

294
00:24:25.720 --> 00:24:29.160
come on, man, you had
an eighty year old line or whatever the

295
00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:33.119
hell it is? Right? And
what do you expect what? I'm not

296
00:24:33.160 --> 00:24:37.720
sure about it? I really am
not. So have you done anything so

297
00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:45.440
far to look into this? Yeah? I have pictures. On June twentieth,

298
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:49.000
I was in the yard and took
pictures of the holes they excavated.

299
00:24:49.519 --> 00:24:52.799
I got a picture of the line. Now was that hole right near where

300
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:57.160
the water is seeping up? Right
now? Exactly right right where when you

301
00:24:57.200 --> 00:25:02.000
go down and look at your meter, your meter running when everything is off?

302
00:25:02.759 --> 00:25:06.279
Yeah, you can't see a water
meter? Can you like an electric

303
00:25:06.359 --> 00:25:08.640
do you, Paul? You don't
see that spinning at all? To you?

304
00:25:10.480 --> 00:25:14.880
You do? Oh? You do? You do? It's a counter.

305
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:22.119
So do you see it turning?
Yeah, it's turning unless I turn

306
00:25:22.200 --> 00:25:25.079
it off. I have to turn
it off. And there's actually what do

307
00:25:25.079 --> 00:25:27.319
you mean turn it off? I
have to turn it off at the water

308
00:25:27.640 --> 00:25:32.559
the water source that comes from the
street. I have to show. I

309
00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:34.720
don't get that. How do you
How are you able to turn off the

310
00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:37.400
water from the street. They have
a key, there's a there's a from

311
00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:41.400
the street, from the from the
street. But can he do it as

312
00:25:41.400 --> 00:25:45.960
a homeowner? Well, if you
if you purchased the tool they called a

313
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:48.480
key in my industry, where it's
a you know you can shut the water

314
00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:52.599
off because I know you have a
main water shut off in your house.

315
00:25:52.039 --> 00:25:56.160
But I didn't realize he can go
and turn it off from the street.

316
00:25:56.440 --> 00:26:00.359
Every every house has the ability to
do that. Do they allow you to

317
00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:03.200
do that? Yeah? I guess
when you're working on your water we're working

318
00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:04.759
on your water line. Some people
call and ask the city to come out

319
00:26:04.759 --> 00:26:08.759
and do that for them. Okay, all right, So I guess the

320
00:26:08.799 --> 00:26:12.119
bottom line is this, what are
you going to do? Are you going

321
00:26:12.200 --> 00:26:15.839
to hire somebody to figure out the
source of this problem or do you expect

322
00:26:15.880 --> 00:26:21.440
them to do it. I'm hoping
that we can get them to resolve it,

323
00:26:21.519 --> 00:26:26.039
because there were there I have pictures. I know it sounds logical to

324
00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:33.359
us. I don't think you should
deal with aj Ventures. I think you

325
00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:37.200
should deal with Denver Water. They're
the ones who did this. I mean,

326
00:26:37.240 --> 00:26:40.599
they may have hired somebody, but
they have to spearhead this. They

327
00:26:40.640 --> 00:26:44.599
have to say, look, you
just got finished checking those lines and now

328
00:26:44.640 --> 00:26:48.759
it's leaking. This is not the
homeowner's fault. For god's sakes. Now,

329
00:26:48.839 --> 00:26:52.400
why did you want to give me
the name of somebody at AJ Ventures?

330
00:26:52.519 --> 00:26:55.039
Was there a reason for that?
Did they treat you badly or what?

331
00:26:56.119 --> 00:26:59.680
Yeah, they're all denying. They're
all denying. I'm being very graceful

332
00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:02.680
about it, and I'm telling all
right, we're gonna have somebody get on

333
00:27:02.680 --> 00:27:06.559
this. Hey, Doc, you
seem to be batting a thousand recently.

334
00:27:06.599 --> 00:27:10.119
You want to try this? Sure? I mean, think about the logic.

335
00:27:10.240 --> 00:27:12.519
Doc. They go out there,
they excavate. Well, now,

336
00:27:12.559 --> 00:27:17.720
when you say excavate, let's let's
talk about that. Is it a big

337
00:27:17.759 --> 00:27:21.279
hole? Little hole? Is it
a drill? What is it about it?

338
00:27:21.359 --> 00:27:25.920
An eight inch hold? Okay,
So they they bore, they bore

339
00:27:25.960 --> 00:27:30.319
an eight inch hold down and inspect
the line to see if it's copper or

340
00:27:30.440 --> 00:27:33.920
lead. Right, yes, And
as soon as they're done, as soon

341
00:27:33.960 --> 00:27:38.279
as they're done, they dig it. They throw dirt back in that hole

342
00:27:38.680 --> 00:27:44.920
and now waters percolating. Yep.
Well, how can they blame you for

343
00:27:44.960 --> 00:27:48.200
that? Come on, that's what
I want show in the twenties they did.

344
00:27:48.359 --> 00:27:52.200
I have them out there digging the
hole and I have a picture on

345
00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:55.920
the twenty first of that hole filled
with water. Okay, you know what

346
00:27:56.400 --> 00:28:00.079
I like that you did all of
this documentation, doc, let's take it.

347
00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:02.920
I'm going to give this to Deputy
doc. As I said. He's

348
00:28:03.039 --> 00:28:07.160
uh, he's right there listening,
and I think he agrees with me that

349
00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:12.160
there's way more. Uh, I
don't know, it's crazy, way Yeah,

350
00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:17.160
there was no there was no leakage
before, and now there's leakage after

351
00:28:17.160 --> 00:28:18.720
they with them. Yeah, exactly, And he and he's got all the

352
00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:23.559
documentation three oh three seven one three
A two five five. Now, Annie,

353
00:28:23.599 --> 00:28:29.079
you got a question quickly about Excel
Home Service program. Is this the

354
00:28:29.119 --> 00:28:34.079
warranty they have, Well, they're
not connected with to Excel, but it

355
00:28:34.359 --> 00:28:38.920
covers five different things. And I
was just wondering if anybody has heard about

356
00:28:38.920 --> 00:28:44.359
this home service program. I really
I've heard about it, and I got

357
00:28:44.480 --> 00:28:48.240
the paperwork and then I read all
the exclusions and they're saying to you,

358
00:28:48.359 --> 00:28:52.720
yeah, I want you to hold
on because this this really warrants a discussion,

359
00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:55.480
and I want you to make the
right choice, so we'll talk about

360
00:28:55.519 --> 00:28:59.119
it coming up. Three all three

372
00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:57.000
Martine. You're troubleshooter three O three
seven to one three Talk Annie, listen,

373
00:29:59.279 --> 00:30:03.640
let's talk about this. These home
services program you say they cover four

374
00:30:03.680 --> 00:30:08.000
things. What did you mean by
that? Well, it's actually five.

375
00:30:08.480 --> 00:30:17.480
One of them is exterior water service, another one is the exterior electrical,

376
00:30:18.200 --> 00:30:23.480
interior electrical, the gas line,
and the sewer. Okay, I'm going

377
00:30:23.559 --> 00:30:30.000
to tell you that. How much
do they want a month? Five nine

378
00:30:30.799 --> 00:30:36.880
five dollars? Yeah, well that's
pretty damn shape, isn't it. In

379
00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:40.720
fact, yeah, they put a
price there like that. The five ninety

380
00:30:40.799 --> 00:30:45.400
nine they do it on purpose because
it's almost what I call a throwaway.

381
00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:48.440
People aren't going to do a lot
of complaining. But and if you have

382
00:30:48.519 --> 00:30:55.240
five ninety nine to throw away,
I'm not telling you it's entirely useless.

383
00:30:55.680 --> 00:31:00.799
But what I'm telling you is this, most claims will be turned down.

384
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:07.440
And it's it's very simple premise.
And that is this. The the exclusions

385
00:31:07.519 --> 00:31:12.200
out number how much they cover.
The reason is this? The reason is

386
00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:18.759
this. The normal wear and tear
for age will not be covered. Okay,

387
00:31:18.759 --> 00:31:23.839
exterior forces will not be covered,
big trucks, stuff like that,

388
00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:30.000
diasterism, I should say, just
Earth's settling right is not covered. Okay.

389
00:31:30.359 --> 00:31:37.240
The other thing is anything considered owner
abuse or anything like that. When

390
00:31:37.319 --> 00:31:44.000
you take all of those considerations,
what is covered hardly anything that's right,

391
00:31:44.119 --> 00:31:48.920
that's exactly right. I read through
the exclusions. Well, I bought it,

392
00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:52.119
I got toword paperwork. I read
through the exclusions and I realized,

393
00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:56.400
no, not covering anything that's right. Could you send me, send me

394
00:31:56.440 --> 00:32:01.079
the latest? Did you cancel?
I'm thinking of yeah, I'm going to

395
00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:07.440
cancel. I would cancel too.
I called to cancel, and I you

396
00:32:07.440 --> 00:32:09.519
know, she wanted me not to
cancel. I said, well, I

397
00:32:09.559 --> 00:32:12.960
need to talk to somebody about this. And I was thinking about you,

398
00:32:13.000 --> 00:32:15.319
and I said, and I'm under
the thirty day. I'm still under the

399
00:32:15.359 --> 00:32:20.079
thirty day where I can still cancel. Wait, if you don't cancel within

400
00:32:20.160 --> 00:32:24.640
thirty days, did they hold you
to a year? Well, they won't

401
00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:28.480
return any money back. And I
didn't pay that much for it anyways.

402
00:32:28.519 --> 00:32:32.799
To start off with, that's how
much did you pay? I just the

403
00:32:32.880 --> 00:32:37.960
billing that I'm looking at it was
seventy nine dollars in some sense, And

404
00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:40.559
I'm trying to find my own billing
because that doesn't seem that seems low.

405
00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:45.559
Well is that for the year or
is that for exclusions? It was the

406
00:32:45.640 --> 00:32:51.359
exclusions that just I thought, there's
hardly anything here covered I know it.

407
00:32:51.480 --> 00:32:54.960
In fact, they're y'very ridiculous.
But Annie, they do this on purpose.

408
00:32:55.880 --> 00:33:00.440
They do it on purpose because it's
a throwaway amount. They figure people

409
00:33:00.480 --> 00:33:05.359
will just do it for safety.
And I'm so happy you called me,

410
00:33:05.440 --> 00:33:09.000
thank you for calling. But I
would cancel it, absolutely positively. And

411
00:33:09.359 --> 00:33:15.000
the worst ones are the home service
are the home warranties they have where they

412
00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:22.160
say they're going to cover your home
appliances and your major systems. Those are

413
00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:28.319
all lies too because and I shouldn't
say lies, there are things that might

414
00:33:28.400 --> 00:33:32.079
be covered, but they don't tell
you what they are until they go bad.

415
00:33:32.799 --> 00:33:37.440
Then they let you know why it's
excluded. They all suck. In

416
00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:40.920
fact, regular home warranties suck.
And anyone I've told you, if you

417

00:36:17.880 --> 00:36:22.360
mind, I don't make reckless bets, so I don't think I did it.

447
00:36:22.599 --> 00:36:24.920
However, I do believe he's going
to be on the ticket Mark.

448
00:36:25.039 --> 00:36:29.599
For those listening, Mark said,
we made a wager, and you two

449
00:36:29.679 --> 00:36:31.519
morons, don't even bother waging in
unless you have proof. Okay, don't

450
00:36:31.559 --> 00:36:35.800
even bother you because you hear what
you want to hear. Mark said we

451
00:36:35.800 --> 00:36:39.599
were having some banter and said,
really, I'll bet you five hundred dollars

452
00:36:40.119 --> 00:36:44.840
Joe Biden will not be the nominee
bah blah blah blah blah, or not

453
00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:47.880
be on the ticket. Whatever.
He's not gonna run anyway. But by

454
00:36:47.920 --> 00:36:52.000
the way, Dan Kaplis is right
there with you. He believes that too.

455
00:36:52.519 --> 00:36:55.239
So I'm shocked. You still,
I'm shocked you think he can survive

456
00:36:55.360 --> 00:36:59.960
what's going on right now. No, I really do think he's gonna run,

457
00:37:00.360 --> 00:37:04.360
Mark, I really do. He
can't count. The guy can't walk,

458
00:37:05.079 --> 00:37:08.239
and he's running our country. People
see that now. Yeah, I

459
00:37:08.280 --> 00:37:13.400
think he's running because he's afraid what
Trump is going to do to his family.

460
00:37:13.840 --> 00:37:16.599
A fact, he's running. And
you know what, I'm just tired

461
00:37:16.639 --> 00:37:22.239
of hearing about this. Do you
know I'm on the mailing list as an

462
00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:27.480
independent for both parties, even for
Kennedy too. So let me just tell

463
00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:32.199
you something. What the emails I
have gotten from both sides are so ridiculous.

464
00:37:32.199 --> 00:37:37.559
But let's just highlight the Biden Harris
campaign. I get emails that,

465
00:37:37.840 --> 00:37:42.360
literally, and I swear to god, I am not exaggerating. I get

466
00:37:42.400 --> 00:37:49.840
emails that say, point blank,
listen now that Trump has full immunity,

467
00:37:50.519 --> 00:37:54.239
not that presidents have immunity doing their
duties. But now that Trump has full

468
00:37:54.280 --> 00:38:01.519
immunity, he will most likely assassinate
me and my family and get away with

469
00:38:01.599 --> 00:38:06.800
it. Now, now, this
is the most ridiculous crap. And he

470
00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:13.239
has pledged to be a dictator,
to be a dictator on day one,

471
00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:19.320
and that we will never have another
presidential election again. Now now, now

472
00:38:19.400 --> 00:38:22.920
listen, come on, all right, I mean, whether you like Trump

473
00:38:22.039 --> 00:38:25.960
or not, or like Biden or
not, come on, I mean,

474
00:38:27.119 --> 00:38:30.920
really, what are people? That's
stupid? So Mark, So I'm not

475
00:38:30.960 --> 00:38:36.000
going to mention any names. It's
not my great guest I have today,

476
00:38:36.039 --> 00:38:42.000
Paul Thewaterman waterpros dot dot net.
But it's not it's not that. But

477
00:38:42.119 --> 00:38:45.320
there was somebody here, a guest
who was an actually what I thought,

478
00:38:45.360 --> 00:38:50.760
an intelligent person, and I happen
to say, are you tired of the

479
00:38:50.880 --> 00:38:55.679
hyperbole surrounding elections? Are you tired
of the exaggeration? And I'm thinking about

480
00:38:55.679 --> 00:39:01.719
both sides, And I said,
for example, can you believe that people

481
00:39:01.840 --> 00:39:08.960
think Trump is going to assassinate his
enemies or he is going to work to

482
00:39:09.079 --> 00:39:14.559
do away with presidential elections and try
to become a dictator. Now, I

483
00:39:14.679 --> 00:39:17.039
swear to God. This guy says
to me, so I gave it away

484
00:39:17.039 --> 00:39:21.920
as not a woman. This guy. This guy says to me, well,

485
00:39:22.000 --> 00:39:27.280
yeah, that's a distinct possibility.
And I said, you're kidding,

486
00:39:27.360 --> 00:39:30.000
right, this was not on the
air. This was off the air.

487
00:39:30.360 --> 00:39:32.960
And he says, no, he
says, I'm fearful of that. Now.

488
00:39:34.639 --> 00:39:38.320
I'm serious. All kidding aside,
all kidding aside, Because when people

489
00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:43.920
said Obama was an agent for this
or that or this country or that country,

490
00:39:44.719 --> 00:39:46.880
you know, Mark, I've always
said, that's ridiculous. I believe

491
00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:52.920
the politicians running for office, even
though they have different visions in their hearts.

492
00:39:53.199 --> 00:39:57.320
In their hearts, they want to
do what's best for the country,

493
00:39:57.440 --> 00:40:00.360
or that's what they think. Now
we may disagree vehemently on how they do

494
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:06.320
it, but I don't think we
have an evil bastard who is saying I

495
00:40:06.360 --> 00:40:09.400
want to destroy America. I want
to do away with elections, I want

496
00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:13.480
to be king, I want to
be dictator. And I don't think there's

497
00:40:13.519 --> 00:40:16.039
a guy in the White House,
including any progressive, saying, you know,

498
00:40:16.119 --> 00:40:20.320
let's do away with free enterprise and
profit and this and that. Now

499
00:40:20.440 --> 00:40:23.360
do I think there are craziness there's
craziness on each side, Yes there is,

500
00:40:23.519 --> 00:40:28.119
and I do tend to lean conservative
when it comes to economic issues and

501
00:40:28.159 --> 00:40:31.639
stuff like that. And but here's
what I want to say. I don't

502
00:40:31.679 --> 00:40:37.639
believe anyone is as bad as the
other side paints them. Okay, I

503
00:40:37.800 --> 00:40:44.000
just and I at least I have
enough common sense to say that. So

504
00:40:44.280 --> 00:40:46.119
Mark, I don't know how you
feel about that, But truly, all

505
00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:52.079
kidding aside, this guy actually said, and you know what, I have

506
00:40:52.239 --> 00:40:58.599
relatives who actually believe it that that
Trump now has a license to assassinate his

507
00:40:58.760 --> 00:41:02.000
enemies and plans to do it.
Now, come on, come on,

508
00:41:02.639 --> 00:41:07.320
it's dumb man. Of course,
of course, that's all they do.

509
00:41:07.400 --> 00:41:09.719
All they do is fear mongert.
That's what the left has come to do.

510
00:41:09.920 --> 00:41:14.760
The other thing that's amazing is how
brainwashed they can do. If you

511
00:41:14.960 --> 00:41:19.119
tell somebody something, if I told
you the color blue was red, a

512
00:41:19.199 --> 00:41:22.559
million times, you would think it. You really wouldn't. And that's what

513
00:41:22.599 --> 00:41:25.840
they're doing to the population right now
now. Okay. But at the same

514
00:41:25.880 --> 00:41:30.760
time, Mark, I you know, I just listen, I agree with

515
00:41:30.800 --> 00:41:32.440
you, But let me just say
that. But at the same time,

516
00:41:32.480 --> 00:41:37.639
I want to say something else.
I've gotten emails from news organizations on the

517
00:41:37.760 --> 00:41:43.039
right that say things that are ridiculous. I mean, you know that that

518
00:41:43.159 --> 00:41:50.280
Democratic higher ups are child trafficking for
their own gratification and they're taking transfusions from

519
00:41:50.320 --> 00:41:52.639
babies. I mean, well,
clairet fly to that island? How many

520
00:41:52.719 --> 00:41:55.760
times? I forget? But how
many times did he fly to that nice

521
00:41:55.760 --> 00:42:00.920
private island? Apparently? Who's that
Epstein? Well, yeah, but what

522
00:42:00.960 --> 00:42:07.599
does Epstein have to do with progressive
Clinton's oh so? But to say that

523
00:42:07.639 --> 00:42:14.800
they're taking infant babies and doing blood
transfusions for eternal youth and trafficking kids for

524
00:42:14.800 --> 00:42:17.199
their own gratificad I mean, come, first of all, I've never heard

525
00:42:17.199 --> 00:42:21.519
of any of this stuff. You're
saying, Oh, I don't. Oh

526
00:42:21.679 --> 00:42:23.960
are you kidding me? Well,
how many Hollywood people came out last week

527
00:42:24.079 --> 00:42:28.960
and said Biden could do exactly what
you know, could go after Trump?

528
00:42:29.239 --> 00:42:32.920
Yeah, I know, I mean, but thinks I don't think how now

529
00:42:32.960 --> 00:42:36.880
even him Pault. I mean,
they're they're getting out of there too.

530
00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:39.119
Man. Anyway, let's go to
the phones. But no, I will

531
00:42:39.159 --> 00:42:43.239
give your comments on this because I'm
not here telling you to vote here and

532
00:42:43.320 --> 00:42:46.239
vote this and vote that. I'm
just saying, the whole thing is ridiculous

533
00:42:46.679 --> 00:42:52.760
and it's sowing seeds of contention and
it's not productive for anyone. But that's

534
00:42:52.760 --> 00:42:55.199
what they want, Tom, I
really believe that they want to say.

535
00:42:55.239 --> 00:43:01.159
They both sides want that. I
think that I think the establishment, I

536
00:43:01.199 --> 00:43:07.079
think hate in fighting. Well,
okay, I will say that you're right

537
00:43:07.119 --> 00:43:10.320
about the hate part. That the
very first thing a liberal throws at you

538
00:43:10.519 --> 00:43:16.440
if you disagree hate hate, not
not oh we disagree, but you're a

539
00:43:16.519 --> 00:43:21.639
hateful person. See. And this
is where they believe they're on a mission

540
00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:25.960
of good because they believe doing away
with Trump or any Republican is a mission.

541
00:43:27.360 --> 00:43:30.840
It's not just disagreement, it's a
mission. Therefore, when people are

542
00:43:30.880 --> 00:43:36.559
on a mission, I mean,
they'll justify anything, right. And don't

543
00:43:36.599 --> 00:43:39.599
you think Antifa what they did and
what they try to do is to press

544
00:43:39.719 --> 00:43:44.760
free speech? Well, no,
no, In conversation, Antifa took over

545
00:43:44.840 --> 00:43:49.880
more buildings than anybody did on January
sixth exactly. I mean around the country

546
00:43:50.239 --> 00:43:53.800
during the Black Lives Matter riots,
right and or Antifa before that on Wall

547
00:43:53.800 --> 00:44:00.760
Street. There was more insurrection in
those protests than ever. Totally agree.

548
00:44:00.039 --> 00:44:02.719
I mean I'm not saying that it
was good. Any of them were good.

549
00:44:02.800 --> 00:44:06.440
None of them were None of them
are good. I gotta go to

550
00:44:06.480 --> 00:44:08.840
the phones now, seriously, let's
go to the phones and and and that's

551
00:44:08.880 --> 00:44:12.760
look at, look at I know
people's old. Tom. Just solve your

552
00:44:12.800 --> 00:44:15.480
consumer problems, you know what,
go to hell? I mean, I'm

553
00:44:15.519 --> 00:44:17.559
talking about things that are pretty obvious. And right now the country is being

554
00:44:17.559 --> 00:44:22.360
torn apart, and I think personally
it's being torn apart by the media and

555
00:44:22.840 --> 00:44:25.880
a buffoon running the country. It's
okay, Mark being torn apart, but

556
00:44:25.960 --> 00:44:31.920
I'm talking about with the media itself
tearing us apart and wanting us. We

557
00:44:32.000 --> 00:44:37.400
are falling prey to the algorithms of
social media and the stuff we're being fed,

558
00:44:37.719 --> 00:44:42.000
and we're being trained to hate each
other. Can't you see that?

559
00:44:42.639 --> 00:44:45.760
You can certainly see manipulation on both
sides, certainly you can. And I'm

560
00:44:45.760 --> 00:44:51.840
not talking about political parties themselves.
I'm talking about the media anyway. Shelley.

561
00:44:52.239 --> 00:44:54.039
What's happening with you, Shelley?
What can we do to help you?

562
00:44:55.480 --> 00:45:02.920
Hi? Hi? I am having
a huge trouble with Frontier Airlines.

563
00:45:04.800 --> 00:45:08.840
Now, what is the trouble with
Frontier Frontier is a terrible airline. Yeah,

564
00:45:08.880 --> 00:45:14.679
it's it's it's more terrible than I
knew. So I flew them at

565
00:45:14.679 --> 00:45:21.360
the beginning of tune and they lost
my bag, told me it would arrive

566
00:45:21.400 --> 00:45:24.920
on the next flight. It didn't
arrive on the next flight. It's never

567
00:45:25.079 --> 00:45:32.079
arrived. Cons they don't one bag, and so what has So let's just

568
00:45:32.239 --> 00:45:37.000
let's just go right to it.
It's lost, Okay, now it's lost.

569
00:45:37.559 --> 00:45:44.599
Now what So you can't communicate with
Frontier via voice It's only they do

570
00:45:44.679 --> 00:45:46.400
that on purpose. They don't want
to talk to people, that's right,

571
00:45:47.000 --> 00:45:52.519
right, So I haven't talked to
them, so I keep I chatted with

572
00:45:52.639 --> 00:45:58.000
them. I went through all the
steps that they told me to do fial

573
00:45:58.119 --> 00:46:02.119
report. Okay, so but here
they're only here's here's the problem with all

574
00:46:02.119 --> 00:46:07.280
of this. They're only responsible to
you for a very small amount of money,

575
00:46:07.320 --> 00:46:13.320
right, are you willing to take
that and accept it? Well,

576
00:46:13.360 --> 00:46:16.119
I would like something. I was
like, no, I get it,

577
00:46:15.840 --> 00:46:20.760
and I think they are. They
do have to pay something. Isn't that

578
00:46:20.840 --> 00:46:25.280
right or not? Well, apparently
in the fine print it says that they

579
00:46:25.400 --> 00:46:30.440
would pay up to like I think
it's like thirty eight hundred dollars and it's

580
00:46:30.480 --> 00:46:32.760
not the stuff like I can replace
this stuff. Well, actually, I'm

581
00:46:32.840 --> 00:46:37.880
not sure. I'm not sure they
pay up to thirty eight hundred. I

582
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:40.280
mean, are you sure that I
did read that? I did read that

583
00:46:43.440 --> 00:46:46.760
mark. You travel a lot by
a frontier, don't you. Yeah,

584
00:46:46.760 --> 00:46:52.280
I got the all you can eat
pass. Well, do you know about

585
00:46:52.280 --> 00:46:57.360
their luggage and their policy? You
have their policy on what I mean if

586
00:46:57.360 --> 00:47:01.320
they lose the luggage, Yeah,
they generally will refund you up to whatever

587
00:47:01.360 --> 00:47:05.679
the max is on the ticket.
What is it a thousand bucks? I

588
00:47:05.679 --> 00:47:07.840
believe No, she set up to
thirty eight hundred, it says. Now,

589
00:47:08.400 --> 00:47:13.360
here's what I'm looking at. I'm
looking at the Department of Transportation,

590
00:47:13.760 --> 00:47:16.280
and what she says kind of rings
true. Here it says there is an

591
00:47:16.440 --> 00:47:21.599
Airlines have a liability to limit up
to thirty eight hundred dollars per passenger for

592
00:47:21.679 --> 00:47:25.039
lost, damage, or delayed baggage. This limit is subject to change,

593
00:47:25.079 --> 00:47:30.760
but so far as thirty eight hundred. However, the compensation is not based

594
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:37.480
on the limit, but rather the
actual value of lost items and not replacement

595
00:47:37.559 --> 00:47:44.400
cost, which means that depreciated value
you may need to provide receipts and other

596
00:47:44.519 --> 00:47:49.719
proof of stuff that was in the
bag. The claims process you file with

597
00:47:50.239 --> 00:47:57.480
the airline within twenty four hours or
seven days after the loss is discovered.

598
00:47:57.559 --> 00:48:00.559
Oh, I'm sorry twenty four hours
to say. You can't do it before

599
00:48:00.639 --> 00:48:04.519
twenty four hours, and you can't
do it after seven days. So you

600
00:48:04.559 --> 00:48:07.360
did it in that timeframe. The
airline will then investigate and determine the amount

601
00:48:07.400 --> 00:48:13.920
of compensation. So have you done
all that? I've done all that?

602
00:48:14.199 --> 00:48:16.559
How much? How much did you
value your bag at? Because you're not

603
00:48:16.599 --> 00:48:22.480
going to get thirty eight hundred No, I mean I it's too much tedious.

604
00:48:22.760 --> 00:48:25.199
I stopped at like four thousand.
No, no, no, hold

605
00:48:25.199 --> 00:48:30.880
on, do you understand that?
How could you have four thousand dollars in

606
00:48:30.920 --> 00:48:34.760
your bag? In one bag?
How can you have four thousand dollars in

607
00:48:34.800 --> 00:48:38.280
one bag? Come? Give me
an idea, Give me an idea.

608
00:48:39.320 --> 00:48:43.800
I had, I had new shoes, I had new dresses, I had

609
00:48:43.840 --> 00:48:46.480
new do you under do you know
what actual cash value means? Not replacement

610
00:48:46.519 --> 00:48:50.239
costs? Right? You know what
actual cash fvalul means? If you were

611
00:48:50.239 --> 00:48:52.000
to sell that, if you were
selling that online, how much would you

612
00:48:52.079 --> 00:48:55.880
get for that? Stuff. Oh
yeah, I have no idea. I

613
00:48:55.880 --> 00:48:59.440
mean, you're not going to get
me. Listen, you're not going to

614
00:48:59.519 --> 00:49:01.880
get But you think that's the problem. And by the way, I'm not

615
00:49:01.920 --> 00:49:06.119
saying that's a good thing. I'm
just saying that's just the way it is.

616
00:49:06.599 --> 00:49:08.679
So so I don't know what you
had in their now, jewelry,

617
00:49:08.880 --> 00:49:13.239
that's a different story. If you
had jewelry, you can document. I

618
00:49:13.280 --> 00:49:15.639
didn't. I didn't. I mean, And the thing is, I would

619
00:49:15.719 --> 00:49:19.840
like my bag back. I would
like them. I paid for the bag.

620
00:49:19.880 --> 00:49:23.360
I paid for it, overweight bag, I paid I just I checked

621
00:49:23.360 --> 00:49:27.079
the stuff because I had. Yeah, you should get paid something. Are

622
00:49:27.079 --> 00:49:34.480
they totally stonewalling you completely? They're
not answering me. I am. They

623
00:49:34.519 --> 00:49:37.599
just don't answer me. They say
someone will get back to you, someone

624
00:49:37.639 --> 00:49:42.519
will get back to you, and
nobody has. And it's just I mean,

625
00:49:42.519 --> 00:49:45.679
I think they want me to go
away, and I kind of would,

626
00:49:45.840 --> 00:49:51.840
but it's just I'm really typical payouts. Here's what the average payouts have

627
00:49:51.920 --> 00:49:59.000
been over the last ten years.
Five hundred dollars. Oh seriously, the

628
00:49:59.039 --> 00:50:04.639
average payout. It's ridiculous, well
ridiculous. Now you know you can take

629
00:50:04.679 --> 00:50:07.760
them the small claims court. You
can't. But that doesn't mean you're gonna

630
00:50:07.760 --> 00:50:12.360
get what you want. But you'll
at least get something, and you know

631
00:50:12.480 --> 00:50:15.960
that's not impossible to do. They
will answer you, Mark, Won't they

632
00:50:15.960 --> 00:50:19.880
answer you? Oh God, they'll
answer you the next day once you're served.

633
00:50:19.920 --> 00:50:25.000
They've never not answered within twenty four
hours. Think about that. Yeah,

634
00:50:25.079 --> 00:50:29.039
I mean, you may you they'll
have no choice but to reach out

635
00:50:29.079 --> 00:50:32.199
to you. And honestly, if
you have receipts. The funny part is,

636
00:50:32.280 --> 00:50:37.119
let's say they ask for receipts of
what was in the suitcase, whether

637
00:50:37.159 --> 00:50:39.960
it's jewelry or whatever, whatever's in
there that they would cover, and then

638
00:50:40.000 --> 00:50:45.119
of course the luggage itself. You
know, how would you possibly prove if

639
00:50:45.119 --> 00:50:49.880
you have those kind of receipts if
you brought that stuff with you or not.

640
00:50:50.079 --> 00:50:53.800
I'm not so sure. You can't
get to thirty eight hundred. But

641
00:50:54.199 --> 00:50:59.719
you know, Shelley Mark, where
do you serve Frontier Airlines? They have

642
00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:04.800
one. I believe I've served them
in Littleton. It's one of those service

643
00:51:05.079 --> 00:51:07.480
companies. I mean, I've been
there a hundred times and I'm pretty sure

644
00:51:07.480 --> 00:51:12.760
they're out of the same one.
Shelly, you may want to do that.

645
00:51:12.840 --> 00:51:15.800
I swear to you. I mean
Mark has gotten Mark has gotten money

646
00:51:15.840 --> 00:51:22.400
from them before for ridiculous stuff.
I mean ridiculous stuff they did to him,

647
00:51:22.679 --> 00:51:24.639
like somebody to answer me. And
they're not going to pay attention.

648
00:51:25.039 --> 00:51:32.800
They're not going to Frontier Airlines will
continue to operate the way they do until

649
00:51:34.000 --> 00:51:38.119
it hurts them so badly they won't
do it. You know, the new

650
00:51:38.199 --> 00:51:44.440
business model of absolutely doing nothing and
ghosting people up until they have to do

651
00:51:44.519 --> 00:51:49.679
something is really taking over this country. Man. It is it is.

652
00:51:49.840 --> 00:51:52.079
You know what, And if you
do the math, I bet you anything.

653
00:51:52.119 --> 00:51:57.039
If you do the math, they're
saving lots and lots of money,

654
00:51:57.039 --> 00:51:59.239
no matter how you look at it. Yeah, because first of all,

655
00:51:59.239 --> 00:52:05.280
they have no tellphone agents whatsoever.
They have no They do nothing until they're

656
00:52:05.280 --> 00:52:09.079
forced to. So if you take
all of those forced two things in the

657
00:52:09.159 --> 00:52:15.159
equation and then get the credit for
none of the service and employees and all

658
00:52:15.159 --> 00:52:19.679
of that, they are probably dollars
ahead. And that's all that counts.

on? Are you there? Oma? Oh? Yes, hi Hi?

669
00:53:15.280 --> 00:53:23.480
What's going on? Okay? We
contacted the contractor in September of twenty twenty

670
00:53:23.519 --> 00:53:29.159
one for what lace the roof?
Okay? Did you contract with them in

671
00:53:29.199 --> 00:53:35.719
December of twenty twenty one? Yes, okay, okay. And what happened,

672
00:53:37.800 --> 00:53:40.760
Well, they fixed the roof,
but the water had leaked through the

673
00:53:40.840 --> 00:53:45.199
ceiling and caused a lot of damage. Now, is this after they fixed

674
00:53:45.239 --> 00:53:51.639
it it leaked? No, No, it was caused by the leak.

675
00:53:52.079 --> 00:53:57.599
Okay before they fixed it, Yeah, okay, keep going. What happened

676
00:53:57.599 --> 00:54:02.239
then? So they they put up
the roof in the fall of twenty twenty

677
00:54:02.280 --> 00:54:09.639
one, and then they had issues
with the insurance to replace the kitchen cabinets

678
00:54:09.679 --> 00:54:15.360
and fix the ceiling in the living
room and the kitchen and the hallway,

679
00:54:16.039 --> 00:54:22.559
and they took the they took the
contract, the home insurance to court.

680
00:54:23.159 --> 00:54:27.760
It was set. Wait wait,
wait, who took your Who took your

681
00:54:27.800 --> 00:54:36.119
insurance to court? The contractor?
That doesn't sound they don't have okay,

682
00:54:37.360 --> 00:54:40.400
why would they take your insurance to
court? They don't even have standing to

683
00:54:40.440 --> 00:54:46.360
do that. Let me ask you
this, hold on. Did they fix

684
00:54:46.440 --> 00:54:52.960
the interior damage and could not get
reimbursed. No, they haven't finished the

685
00:54:53.000 --> 00:54:59.760
interior. The interior is we have
no kitchen cabinets. I mean we have

686
00:54:59.880 --> 00:55:04.840
no okay, But then why would
the roofer take your insurance company to court

687
00:55:06.840 --> 00:55:12.079
because the insurance wouldn't pay for the
inside of the house. But that's not

688
00:55:12.320 --> 00:55:16.159
up to that insurance company to put
that. Excuse me, your contractor has

689
00:55:16.239 --> 00:55:22.920
no legal standing to sue for that
if they didn't do the work, okay,

690
00:55:23.119 --> 00:55:29.119
all right, Well what happened then? Well they took them to court

691
00:55:29.199 --> 00:55:34.800
and they settled in October twenty twenty
three for one hundred eighty thousand dollars.

692
00:55:35.039 --> 00:55:38.559
Wait a minute, Ama, hold
on, omen are you saying they got

693
00:55:38.599 --> 00:55:45.840
one hundred eighty thousand dollars on your
behalf for repairs they did not do?

694
00:55:46.960 --> 00:55:52.400
Were they working on it? Oh? Okay? So? But but how

695
00:55:52.480 --> 00:55:57.960
did they go? Okay? I
am so baffled by this. So they

696
00:55:58.079 --> 00:56:07.000
sued for money before the work was
even done? Correct? Did they get

697
00:56:07.079 --> 00:56:13.639
your permission to do it on your
behalf? I believe I signed the paper?

698
00:56:13.880 --> 00:56:15.960
Okay, Well, then that's then
you're the one that sued. Okay,

699
00:56:16.000 --> 00:56:21.400
go ahead, So now what they
so, so this attorney tricked you

700
00:56:21.480 --> 00:56:25.960
into signing up this lawsuit through the
roofer and and they settled. Now what,

701
00:56:29.760 --> 00:56:34.159
Well, as of today, we
don't have a kitchen thing or kitchen

702
00:56:34.239 --> 00:56:39.119
caundars. And here's the problem with
this. Here's the problem with this.

703
00:56:39.559 --> 00:56:46.480
The contractor has the money. Is
that correct? Yes? Yes? So

704
00:56:46.719 --> 00:56:51.440
what's the name of the contractor?
Hold on, what's the name of the

705
00:56:51.480 --> 00:56:59.000
contractor? Blue Ribbon? Who's blue
ribbon? It's the name of Is it

706
00:56:59.000 --> 00:57:07.039
called blue Ribbon roofing or what?
It's a contract that does inside and outside?

707
00:57:07.400 --> 00:57:12.440
He does everything. It's called blue
Ribbon construction. Okay, So who

708
00:57:12.519 --> 00:57:22.199
was the person you dealt with that
blue ribbon? Brian Moorehst, Brian more

709
00:57:22.239 --> 00:57:27.719
Horst, can you spell that for
me? Yeah, I'm going to try

710
00:57:27.760 --> 00:57:31.880
to. Let me see. This
is amazing to me. Just forget it

711
00:57:31.960 --> 00:57:36.280
right now, Brian, and so, Brian, this was fall of twenty

712
00:57:36.360 --> 00:57:45.239
twenty one. So the contractor took
the insurance company to court. What's amazing

713
00:57:45.360 --> 00:57:50.199
is they took him to They that
must have been a bad faith claim and

714
00:57:50.239 --> 00:57:57.519
they had you file it. Basically, what attorney handled this? I don't

715
00:57:57.559 --> 00:58:01.639
know. You don't have the paperwork
that you signed. Do you have the

716
00:58:01.760 --> 00:58:07.480
lawsuit? Do you have a copy
of the lawsuit it? Yes? I

717
00:58:07.559 --> 00:58:14.000
do. We need to see that
before we continue because this is highly unusual.

718
00:58:14.079 --> 00:58:19.360
Hang on, we just need to
mark this pending because I'm telling you

719
00:58:19.440 --> 00:58:23.000
something is gravely wrong here. Okay, maybe gravely's not the right word,

720
00:58:23.280 --> 00:58:30.480
but there is something terribly wrong.
Somehow they tricked you into letting them do

721
00:58:30.760 --> 00:58:36.679
a bad faith action and they kept
the money. I don't know who handled

722
00:58:36.719 --> 00:58:42.280
the case, but your lawsuit will
have hoof sued who was the attorney and

723
00:58:42.400 --> 00:58:45.920
how it was done, Because first
of all, you don't even sue as

724
00:58:45.920 --> 00:58:50.039
a contractor unless you did the work
and didn't get paid. The fact that

725
00:58:50.079 --> 00:58:53.199
they sued before they did the work
says it was a bad faith suit which

726
00:58:53.239 --> 00:58:59.480
can only be brought by you.
So I need to get Kaschina. You

727
00:58:59.519 --> 00:59:04.159
need to get this to me because
otherwise I have no idea what's going on.

01:00:13.239 --> 01:00:17.880
you have the following deficiencies. And
then if it's like rodent infestation and other

742
01:00:17.960 --> 01:00:22.519
things, you tell the landlord and
then you say, I hereby give you

743
01:00:22.639 --> 01:00:27.239
notice that if these are not corrected
within and you got to give them a

744
01:00:27.280 --> 01:00:31.480
reasonable amount of time that the courts
have usually ruled anywhere from twenty to thirty

745
01:00:31.559 --> 01:00:37.440
days. You give them notice and
say if corrections are not made, I

746
01:00:37.639 --> 01:00:44.480
will with hold rent to pay for
repairs, or I am leaving you.

747
01:00:44.519 --> 01:00:49.440
Pick one of those two. Now
here's the deal. You have to document

748
01:00:49.599 --> 01:00:54.119
everything. It is a real thing
and people have been successful at it,

749
01:00:54.440 --> 01:00:59.639
but you must do it like that. In fact, there's a float chart

750
01:01:00.440 --> 01:01:07.679
on this whole process that I can
probably email you on what to do.

751
01:01:07.280 --> 01:01:14.000
It's a it's a construction constructive eviction
float chart. But the first thing is

752
01:01:14.079 --> 01:01:20.840
to notify the landlord of the specific
problems and they have to be stuff that

753
01:01:20.840 --> 01:01:24.599
that are under the laws of habitability. Road and infestation would be one any

754
01:01:24.639 --> 01:01:31.079
health or safety issues, heat,
water, all of that. Then then

755
01:01:31.159 --> 01:01:35.400
you do the uh, the note, you know, tell them you want

756
01:01:35.400 --> 01:01:37.159
to fix in a certain amount of
time, and then just wait. If

757
01:01:37.199 --> 01:01:42.519
they don't do it, then you
send another letter with your rent saying I'm

758
01:01:42.719 --> 01:01:49.360
withholding rent for this reason. And
then but you must use the money you

759
01:01:49.400 --> 01:01:52.920
withhold for the repairs. Now,
if you don't want to go that way,

760
01:01:54.000 --> 01:01:58.960
you can simply leave, but you
have to let them know either way,

761
01:01:59.000 --> 01:02:04.639
whether you're going to withhold to fix
or you're going to leave. Okay,

762
01:02:04.760 --> 01:02:12.679
So the point where I'm at is
I've asked them several times and then

763
01:02:12.760 --> 01:02:17.280
I sent them emails. So I
finally last week on Friday, I finally

764
01:02:17.320 --> 01:02:22.280
found this document of the letter letting
them know that I was going to leave

765
01:02:22.320 --> 01:02:30.360
the premises. And I walked into
the real real estate company, which is

766
01:02:30.599 --> 01:02:35.880
but part of the worst real estate
company I've ever dealt with, because anything

767
01:02:35.920 --> 01:02:39.559
I've ever asked them or talked to
them about, they told me I'm lying.

768
01:02:39.920 --> 01:02:44.559
And and now anyways, this is
the last one. When I came

769
01:02:44.559 --> 01:02:49.480
in this last time, I handed
them the letter and I told him I'm

770
01:02:49.519 --> 01:02:52.840
going to do a constructive Oh you
did tell them that I did already.

771
01:02:52.880 --> 01:02:57.639
I'm already at that point. And
so wow, the man and how long

772
01:02:57.679 --> 01:03:00.960
ago did you wait? How so? So you gave them notice to fix

773
01:03:01.039 --> 01:03:06.320
and they failed to fix? Right? So when did you tell him you

774
01:03:06.360 --> 01:03:10.480
were leaving last Friday? Yeah?
But what do you mean is when did

775
01:03:10.480 --> 01:03:16.320
you give him the first letter demanding
it be fixed? Oh, that was

776
01:03:17.599 --> 01:03:22.840
about two weeks ago. So we've
been for weeks living with these rodents and

777
01:03:22.880 --> 01:03:24.920
they were are you going to be
out at the end of July? That's

778
01:03:25.000 --> 01:03:30.079
what I told them. Yes,
Okay, what have they responded so far?

779
01:03:30.360 --> 01:03:36.239
So when I went into the office, Matt, he's very confrontational.

780
01:03:37.599 --> 01:03:40.280
He right away he starts getting crazy
because this is the second time I've been

781
01:03:40.280 --> 01:03:44.360
into the office about probably. What
did he say? I mean, he

782
01:03:44.400 --> 01:03:47.440
can't get crazy, it's it's all
business. What did he say? He

783
01:03:47.559 --> 01:03:52.119
told me that. He said,
you can try to do this, but

784
01:03:52.159 --> 01:03:54.679
the owner's not going to give it
to you. And I said, how

785
01:03:54.760 --> 01:04:00.920
much deposit do you have? A
twenty two dollars? I put the well,

786
01:04:00.000 --> 01:04:02.239
he is going to give you now. He may not give it to

787
01:04:02.280 --> 01:04:05.639
you without a fight, but you're
going if he doesn't give it to you,

788
01:04:05.639 --> 01:04:10.159
you're going to assume him for trouble
damages. Well, I just want

789
01:04:10.199 --> 01:04:12.840
to get out of this contract.
That's it, because I've had nothing but

790
01:04:12.920 --> 01:04:15.119
problem. Yeah, but you want
your money to write your security deposit?

791
01:04:15.320 --> 01:04:17.679
No, I don't even want that. They can keep it for the month

792
01:04:17.719 --> 01:04:23.480
of the July, just okay.
Then I would then just leave. Yeah,

793
01:04:23.519 --> 01:04:26.719
so that's the thing. I I
can't just leave without letting them know.

794
01:04:26.920 --> 01:04:30.559
So I gave them. I gave
them the letter. And he says,

795
01:04:30.760 --> 01:04:33.119
oh, you've done nothing. He
says, the owner is not going

796
01:04:33.199 --> 01:04:36.400
to give you this eviction. He
says, you've done nothing but lie on

797
01:04:36.400 --> 01:04:43.199
our company. I've never listen.
Listen, you've gone. He kicked me

798
01:04:43.239 --> 01:04:45.320
out, and he said I'm not
allowed in that building anymore. And then

799
01:04:45.360 --> 01:04:47.920
he said, okay, but but
why do you care if you're leaving?

800
01:04:48.000 --> 01:04:51.519
Why do you care? I just
don't want this to backfire on me.

801
01:04:51.639 --> 01:04:56.639
I in what way? Backfire?
In what way do you mean? Because

802
01:04:56.639 --> 01:04:59.760
they're going to come after you for
the balance of the lease. Yeah,

803
01:05:00.079 --> 01:05:03.480
the remaining like what now, nothing
can prevent them from coming after you for

804
01:05:03.519 --> 01:05:10.519
that. But you've done everything,
according to you, you've done everything under

805
01:05:10.559 --> 01:05:14.480
the laws. So even if they
do come after you to try to sue

806
01:05:14.480 --> 01:05:19.000
you for damages, you're going to
show your documentation that you did everything correctly.

807
01:05:19.320 --> 01:05:24.679
And believe me, with the way
the courts are nowadays, tenants have

808
01:05:24.800 --> 01:05:29.920
more rights than landlords. Okay,
so let me just ask you one question.

809
01:05:30.039 --> 01:05:32.719
If they turn around and now say
that they're going to pay for the

810
01:05:32.760 --> 01:05:36.440
extermination, but I'm already past the
point where I don't want to live here,

811
01:05:36.480 --> 01:05:41.000
how does that work that? I
don't know. We need to talk

quickly. He's here. That's good.

824
01:06:41.719 --> 01:06:45.719
I'll talk to him now, Brad. On a constructive eviction, if someone

825
01:06:45.800 --> 01:06:48.840
writes to the landlord and says,
you know, I demand you fix this

826
01:06:48.840 --> 01:06:53.360
stuff or I'm leaving, and then
you're getting ready to leave, and they

827
01:06:53.400 --> 01:06:59.079
went way beyond the deadline you gave
him, uh, you know, and

828
01:06:59.119 --> 01:07:01.079
then they say, okay, okay, we're going to fix it. What

829
01:07:01.199 --> 01:07:05.599
do you do? Then? Do
you have to unwind everything and stay well?

830
01:07:05.960 --> 01:07:11.480
I assume you're not talking about the
warranty of habitability statute. Yeah.

831
01:07:12.360 --> 01:07:15.760
Yeah. To get a constructive eviction, she said her place was infested with

832
01:07:16.000 --> 01:07:20.960
rats, and she wrote say go
ahead, okay, yeah, things like

833
01:07:20.960 --> 01:07:26.159
that that are health and safety,
and wrote, including rodents and things that

834
01:07:26.199 --> 01:07:29.920
make the place habitable fall under the
warranty of habitability statute, which has its

835
01:07:29.920 --> 01:07:34.920
own procedures for giving notice. Then
the landlord has a certain amount of time

836
01:07:34.960 --> 01:07:39.719
to respond and start repairs and then
they have a reasonable amount of time to

837
01:07:39.760 --> 01:07:43.440
complete the repairs. And if that
doesn't happen, then you could do two

838
01:07:43.440 --> 01:07:45.400
things with that statute. Either one
go to court to terminate the lease or

839
01:07:45.920 --> 01:07:50.559
to go to court to order get
a court order forcing them and learn to

840
01:07:50.599 --> 01:07:55.480
do the work. So you have
to go to court before you just leave.

841
01:08:00.960 --> 01:08:04.800
Actually, well you can if you
if you can actually lead before without

842
01:08:04.800 --> 01:08:08.880
going to court. But it's it's
a sort of a leap of faith because

843
01:08:08.920 --> 01:08:13.800
you have to first get all the
notices the landlord has to then fail to

844
01:08:15.880 --> 01:08:18.600
do the work, then only a
court can decide if you did it correctly.

845
01:08:19.159 --> 01:08:23.199
So if they come after you,
that's when the court would decide that.

846
01:08:23.319 --> 01:08:27.920
Otherwise you're out right. Okay,
listen, we have more coming up.

text me on my Google number seven

866
01:10:00.119 --> 01:10:02.119
want to text me, you can. Somebody wants to know does a whole

867
01:10:02.159 --> 01:10:06.760
house water softener need to bypass the
sprinkler lines, or do you just you

868
01:10:06.760 --> 01:10:11.159
know and go ahead, So what
do you do about that? It's a

869
01:10:11.159 --> 01:10:14.439
good idea to do that, so
you're not wasting it, right, correct,

870
01:10:15.039 --> 01:10:18.560
it won't So what with soft water? Treated water? Filtered water won't

871
01:10:18.600 --> 01:10:23.520
kill the grass, but it's absent
of food that the grass needs or your

872
01:10:23.600 --> 01:10:27.399
lawn, the trees, you know, drip drip lines. So something that

873
01:10:27.600 --> 01:10:30.399
you know, that's what we try
to do, is installed bypassed per What

874
01:10:30.439 --> 01:10:35.159
about okay, that's what it's asking. And then what about potassium water softeners?

875
01:10:35.199 --> 01:10:39.159
What do you know about those?
They're the same as regular water softeners

876
01:10:39.159 --> 01:10:44.439
that some companies over indulge and say
that this is a potassium based system.

877
01:10:44.520 --> 01:10:48.119
All units can use potassium. The
problem is potassium is very expensive and you

878
01:10:48.199 --> 01:10:51.760
have to so why would you use
potassium? Let's say nothing else? Because

879
01:10:51.800 --> 01:10:58.960
folks they misunderstand how a software operates. So people think that you're putting salt.

880
01:10:59.039 --> 01:11:01.119
If a water soften uses water softing
salt, you're putting salt in the

881
01:11:01.119 --> 01:11:05.640
water and you're not doing that.
So then other companies try to, you

882
01:11:05.680 --> 01:11:11.239
know, create this illusion. While
you use potassium and potassium, the process

883
01:11:11.359 --> 01:11:15.600
is the same. You have to
use more potassium than water softing salt.

884
01:11:15.680 --> 01:11:18.840
And people have to understand the by
product of a water softener is sodium by

885
01:11:18.920 --> 01:11:24.119
carbonate baking soda. So why are
people so concerned with the salt? Are

886
01:11:24.119 --> 01:11:28.600
they assuming if you wash the filters
with salt, salt gets into your water.

887
01:11:29.560 --> 01:11:33.119
So salt is a sailing the soft
rates right, So people are under

888
01:11:33.159 --> 01:11:36.640
the false impression that you're putting salt
into the water, and that's not the

889
01:11:36.640 --> 01:11:41.640
case. It's only put into the
water used to rinse the filter. That

890
01:11:42.000 --> 01:11:45.960
during the backwashing process. It's an
exchange process. The resin grabs the hardness,

891
01:11:46.399 --> 01:11:49.640
so then the hardness and the chloride
go down the drain. So the

892
01:11:49.680 --> 01:11:56.520
byproduct of a water softener is either
sodium and the water stays without sodium.

893
01:11:56.560 --> 01:12:01.520
Correct, So you're going to have
either sodium by carbonate, which is baking

894
01:12:01.560 --> 01:12:06.119
soda if you use water softing salt, or potassium carbonate if you use potassium.

895
01:12:06.159 --> 01:12:10.960
Mark you had a question. He's
gonna think I'm kidding, but I'm

896
01:12:11.000 --> 01:12:15.319
not. Someone emailed us and sent
me a link to an article from the

897
01:12:15.319 --> 01:12:21.880
Guardian. Listen to this man.
The study has found significant levels of microplastics

898
01:12:23.319 --> 01:12:30.199
and four out of five men going
through a rectile dysfunction and they're finding the

899
01:12:30.840 --> 01:12:34.760
microplastics and the penis. Is that
true? First? But first I have

900
01:12:34.800 --> 01:12:39.520
a question, where do you find
it in the water supply? All you

901
01:12:39.560 --> 01:12:42.279
no, but where in the penis? Like if you go to a doctor

902
01:12:42.319 --> 01:12:45.119
for viagar or something, does he
say, let me check your penis for

903
01:12:45.199 --> 01:12:50.000
plastics. It's in the blood,
vessels, microplastics. Microplastics has penetrated every

904
01:12:50.000 --> 01:12:54.720
aspect of the human body. Is
in the brain, in the penis,

905
01:12:54.800 --> 01:13:00.439
veins, artery, is exactly correct. So microplastics is in the water supply.

906
01:13:00.279 --> 01:13:05.840
Every every major body of water has
microplastics. So we're drinking microplastics and

907
01:13:05.880 --> 01:13:12.600
it's lodging in our systems. Absolutely, we're eating We're eating microplastics. We're

908
01:13:12.680 --> 01:13:17.479
breathing microplastics. Absolutely correct. So
this is this is an issue where every

909
01:13:17.800 --> 01:13:21.600
microplastics. My concern down the road
is that it's even going to be responsible

910
01:13:21.600 --> 01:13:28.560
for birth defects. Now it says
it's leading it could lead to smooth muscle

911
01:13:28.680 --> 01:13:34.800
dysfunction, which of course is which
contributes to a rectile dysfunction. So that

912
01:13:35.079 --> 01:13:39.479
is I see the article, Mark, I thought you were joking it says

913
01:13:39.520 --> 01:13:45.000
they go it says, it says
there. The microplastics go there because of

914
01:13:45.079 --> 01:13:49.239
how much blood flow there is and
how spongy the organ is. It's really

915
01:13:49.319 --> 01:13:54.520
crazy to think of it in those
terms. Well, the bigger issue for

916
01:13:54.640 --> 01:13:59.840
me is people who have stents in
any aspect of the body for blood flow.

917
01:14:00.199 --> 01:14:03.159
Microplastics can cause, you know,
a concern because they can build up

918
01:14:03.199 --> 01:14:06.399
within that stent, they get trapped
in fatty tissue, they can get trapped

919
01:14:06.399 --> 01:14:11.000
in cholesterol. You know, Deputy
doc, if you remember what was a

920
01:14:11.000 --> 01:14:14.119
couple months ago, first you know, told us that he saw the story

921
01:14:14.119 --> 01:14:18.319
online because the microplastics win the placenta, and since then they found that they're

922
01:14:18.319 --> 01:14:24.640
in every aspect of the human body. Wow, So how do you get

923
01:14:24.640 --> 01:14:27.439
around that? I mean, obviously
you want to filter the water you drink

924
01:14:27.479 --> 01:14:30.800
in your house, but are you
how would you even be safe buying bottled

925
01:14:30.800 --> 01:14:34.680
water? Well, you can't be
saved buying bottle water because bottle water has,

926
01:14:35.079 --> 01:14:41.960
because of their manufacturing practices, has
microplastics. They have even nanoparticles of

927
01:14:42.000 --> 01:14:45.239
the of the filter system are in
bottle water. So with my purified water

928
01:14:45.279 --> 01:14:50.680
pole, I use it now if
I put it in the wrong container.

929
01:14:51.119 --> 01:14:57.319
Could I still leach plastics? No, I don't think you can leach plastics

930
01:14:57.640 --> 01:15:01.399
if you put it in a plastic
container. Okay, it's something that microplastics

931
01:15:01.399 --> 01:15:08.319
are that separate. Microplastics are an
environment based upon deterioration and landfills, deterioration,

932
01:15:08.479 --> 01:15:12.479
contamination, so then it's on runoff
and everything. Right. They don't

933
01:15:12.479 --> 01:15:14.600
they don't, they don't break down, tom, they don't go away.

934
01:15:14.640 --> 01:15:19.359
They just get small microplastics. Absolutely, they do, hundred percent. The

935
01:15:19.399 --> 01:15:24.239
research I'm doing is shows that.
Knowing that, but the next big issue

936
01:15:24.239 --> 01:15:28.439
on top of that is going to
be the pharmaceutical the component that we're going

937
01:15:28.520 --> 01:15:31.920
to have to be dealing with too. Yeah, and that's micro pharmaceuticals because

938
01:15:32.359 --> 01:15:36.800
pharmaceuticals are not being completely removed from
municipal water. That's right, And every

939
01:15:36.880 --> 01:15:42.520
their study is done right now in
Colorado that every major over the counter pharmaceutical

940
01:15:42.560 --> 01:15:45.920
that you use is in our water
supply. See here's what I've said before,

941
01:15:45.119 --> 01:15:49.119
and I'll say it again. There's
no way that you can be proactive

942
01:15:49.199 --> 01:15:58.520
with your health by organic have supplements
and care about your body without looking at

943
01:15:58.560 --> 01:16:00.880
your water. Absolutely correct. I
mean that's I mean come on, it's

944
01:16:00.880 --> 01:16:04.239
the most important thing. That every
aspect of life is water. What we

945
01:16:04.359 --> 01:16:09.520
eat is water, the vegetables,
the meat and everything, even the plastic

946
01:16:09.560 --> 01:16:13.000
wrap. Now Tom that they put
our meat products. They're saying that we

947
01:16:13.000 --> 01:16:17.560
can get microplastics from That's crazy.
Now, Joe Marie, you have an

948
01:16:17.560 --> 01:16:24.000
issue with a product you bought?
Uh, tell us about it. Well,

949
01:16:24.119 --> 01:16:29.199
it's the Keto product. What is
it? Is it Keto as in

950
01:16:29.319 --> 01:16:32.319
low carb keto? Is that what
you're talking about? You? They're Keto

951
01:16:32.399 --> 01:16:40.239
gummies? Yeah? But has been
peting it and it's Keto gummies to lose

952
01:16:40.279 --> 01:16:43.680
weight. Okay, So it is
okay, Keto gum. And by the

953
01:16:43.680 --> 01:16:47.800
way, is it supposed to put
your body into ketosis? I believe so.

954
01:16:47.960 --> 01:16:51.840
Yes. And who was promoting it? I see them all over the

955
01:16:51.880 --> 01:16:58.560
internet Keto gummies? Yeah? And
who was tank? Initially it was on

956
01:16:58.640 --> 01:17:04.279
Shark Tank And Kelly Clarkson is a
big push Oh, Kelly Clarkson. So

957
01:17:04.319 --> 01:17:09.960
what do you not like about?
It doesn't work? And I got the

958
01:17:10.000 --> 01:17:15.640
wrong stuff. Apparently they sent me
the wrong product. And in the process

959
01:17:15.720 --> 01:17:19.319
of all this, she's been fighting
because she talked about scams and she's fighting

960
01:17:19.359 --> 01:17:25.119
it in court and whatnot. Wait, so she's fighting it. Kelly Clarkson

961
01:17:25.239 --> 01:17:30.680
is actually fighting against them apparently.
Yes, this is what she claims on

962
01:17:30.720 --> 01:17:35.560
Facebook. Okay, now, I
tried. I tried to call it shark

963
01:17:35.640 --> 01:17:41.479
tank, shark tank. The numbers
are no good. I ended up talking

964
01:17:41.520 --> 01:17:45.640
to someone from shark Ninja. She
googled the numbers and tried to find shark

965
01:17:45.720 --> 01:17:49.880
tank. Couldn't get a number for
me. In the process of this,

966
01:17:51.279 --> 01:17:57.560
I have containers sitting here on my
account. Do you know, let me

967
01:17:57.600 --> 01:18:02.600
explain something to you. Do you
know they're misusing the word keto on purpose,

968
01:18:03.560 --> 01:18:10.560
But do you know what ketosis is
and why people try to get into

969
01:18:10.680 --> 01:18:15.640
katosis. It has to do with
weight loss, and it has to do

970
01:18:15.760 --> 01:18:20.319
with sugar. Okay, of your
sugar in your body. What ketosis is,

971
01:18:21.000 --> 01:18:26.239
it's a very I'm gonna give you
a one sentence explanation. It's burning

972
01:18:26.399 --> 01:18:31.840
fat for energy instead of glucose.
That's it. Okay. Now, for

973
01:18:32.000 --> 01:18:39.000
years we've been told that katosis is
bad for you. And it's not bad

974
01:18:39.039 --> 01:18:43.079
for you. Okay, it's not. They said the ketones are bad because

975
01:18:43.119 --> 01:18:46.920
it breaks down everything in your body, and it doesn't. It does Okay,

976
01:18:47.399 --> 01:18:54.520
it does break down fat, and
it's there's nothing wrong with ketones.

977
01:18:54.560 --> 01:19:00.640
Okay, there's nothing wrong with it. And and but glucose and sugar which

978
01:19:00.720 --> 01:19:04.960
is made well, you eat a
lot of it, but it's manufactured by

979
01:19:04.960 --> 01:19:11.119
your liver. And it was only
meant to be like a booster. So

980
01:19:11.159 --> 01:19:15.319
when you were being chased, when
you were being chased by a wild animal

981
01:19:15.479 --> 01:19:20.640
or a foe, you would use
fat as normal energy and then the glucose

982
01:19:20.680 --> 01:19:26.520
would be like nitrous oxide or like
a boost, and it would give you

983
01:19:26.560 --> 01:19:30.079
a boost of energy when needed,
and it would be triggered by the liver

984
01:19:30.479 --> 01:19:36.319
and through adrenaline, and that's what
got you extra energy. But through the

985
01:19:36.439 --> 01:19:43.960
years, what we did was we
shortcut our systems and we started using glucose

986
01:19:44.039 --> 01:19:50.319
as the primary fuel and fat as
a secondary fuel. And the problem is

987
01:19:51.000 --> 01:19:59.479
our numbskull moronic doctors, most of
them who don't have a clue about nutrition

988
01:20:00.119 --> 01:20:03.840
or proactive health. Most of them
are acute medics who go after symptoms,

989
01:20:04.279 --> 01:20:11.600
and the problem is is they were
trained that if you go into katosis,

990
01:20:12.079 --> 01:20:16.000
it is a stressor on your body
because your body is saying there's no food.

991
01:20:16.039 --> 01:20:19.359
We got to use fat and that's
exactly what your body is saying,

992
01:20:19.560 --> 01:20:24.319
and it's supposed to be saying that. By putting your body into what's called

993
01:20:24.319 --> 01:20:29.680
a famine set where you burn,
you burn through katosis, your body actually

994
01:20:30.039 --> 01:20:34.159
also goes into a repair and maintenance
mode, which triggers longevity. It's a

995
01:20:34.279 --> 01:20:39.159
long story, but the bottom line
is this. There is nothing you can

996
01:20:39.199 --> 01:20:44.199
do to throw your body into katosis
with the so called gummies. There is

997
01:20:44.239 --> 01:20:51.319
not one that works or one there's
not one keytne supplement that actually creates keytnes

998
01:20:51.479 --> 01:20:56.359
in your system. It's all a
big giant ripoff. That's it in a

999
01:20:56.439 --> 01:21:01.479
nutshell. It's a right. Is
there any way to stop some of these

1000
01:21:01.520 --> 01:21:06.239
people? There's an ad online right
now on Facebook and it shows her and

1001
01:21:06.319 --> 01:21:10.359
she's holding a document. Anyway,
it gives them. The only way you

1002
01:21:10.399 --> 01:21:16.079
can stop you can stop these people
from lying to you about these supplements and

1003
01:21:16.119 --> 01:21:23.279
things is if somehow you got the
government to believe that they're fighting against the

1004
01:21:23.319 --> 01:21:27.079
COVID vaccine, then they would shut
them down. Other than that, the

1005
01:21:27.119 --> 01:21:30.239
government doesn't care what you do.
All they care about is what they push,

1006
01:21:30.680 --> 01:21:35.119
and the government pushes big pharma.
So if you were fighting against big

1007
01:21:35.199 --> 01:21:41.159
pharma. The government would come to
the big farmer's rescue and try to shut

1008
01:21:41.199 --> 01:21:46.800
down anything that threatens big pharma or
threatens vaccines. But the fact that this

1009
01:21:46.920 --> 01:21:51.760
doesn't threaten anyone, the government doesn't
care. Now, every once in a

1010
01:21:51.840 --> 01:21:58.880
while, the FDA does raid certain
things that make certain claims. They do,

1011
01:21:59.000 --> 01:22:02.319
I must admit that, But most
of the time, if something is

1012
01:22:02.479 --> 01:22:09.720
generally recognized as safe, they kind
of turn a blind eye to false claims.

1013
01:22:09.800 --> 01:22:14.760
They really do. And Tom,
these supplements are not SAD, They're

1014
01:22:14.760 --> 01:22:16.840
not gone. They don't go through
the FDA. That's one of the biggest

1015
01:22:16.840 --> 01:22:23.920
problems is that they're not FDA approved
because they consider it supplements and not drugs.

1016
01:22:24.680 --> 01:22:27.960
That's what I said, generally approved
as safe. They call it DOC

1017
01:22:28.000 --> 01:22:32.199
and if it falls under that grass
certification, they sometimes don't mess with it.

1018
01:22:33.439 --> 01:22:38.319
We'll see this on the SAD.
She has a document that she holds

1019
01:22:38.399 --> 01:22:42.680
and as I wrote down the FDA
number, and the guy is local here

1020
01:22:42.720 --> 01:22:45.600
in Aurora, and it really ticks
me off because I brought it up and

1021
01:22:46.000 --> 01:22:51.479
apparently it's an address and everything out
of his home that he's selling this stuff.

1022
01:22:53.039 --> 01:22:59.279
Okay, now listen now, listen, let me explain something. When

1023
01:22:59.359 --> 01:23:08.600
it comes to external ketones. Okay, that we take that we want sometimes

1024
01:23:08.760 --> 01:23:17.880
just to be completely transparent here.
Sometimes those external keytnes can provide your body

1025
01:23:17.960 --> 01:23:24.199
with a trick. It's it's like
almost like almost like a homeopathic response,

1026
01:23:24.760 --> 01:23:32.840
and it can trick your body sometimes
into encouraging katosis. But you must accompany

1027
01:23:32.880 --> 01:23:39.600
it with low carb diet or low
sugar diet. It kind of helps you

1028
01:23:39.800 --> 01:23:45.399
stay in ketosis. It can reach
it, it can, it absolutely can.

1029
01:23:45.560 --> 01:23:47.079
Well I'm saying that's what the claim
is. I mean, I've never

1030
01:23:47.199 --> 01:23:50.680
tried them, but it makes that
part clear. What does it say on

1031
01:23:50.760 --> 01:23:58.439
the bottle as far as the contents, not much? You know, they

1032
01:23:58.520 --> 01:24:01.199
sell So you guys, no,
this guy might be selling his brand out

1033
01:24:01.199 --> 01:24:05.359
of his house. But you can
go into Costco, Walmart, Walgreens anywhere

1034
01:24:05.359 --> 01:24:10.680
in the world and buy the things. Yeah you can. Well, what

1035
01:24:10.760 --> 01:24:17.000
do you say, pull the carbohydrates, pull the sugars, h apple,

1036
01:24:17.079 --> 01:24:21.760
cider, vinegar. Doc. It
doesn't really dock it. It doesn't make

1037
01:24:21.800 --> 01:24:26.000
claims on the label of that SNG. I'm just curious what was in it?

1038
01:24:26.039 --> 01:24:30.000
That's all. Oh, it's not
nothing, nothing to be you know,

1039
01:24:30.119 --> 01:24:33.960
not to worry about taking us.
Mostly that's a lot of natural stuff

1040
01:24:34.000 --> 01:24:38.720
with apple cider, vinegar and stuff. Hell, you can get that at

1041

the grocery store. Yeah, we
we listen, hold on, we got

Martino, you're troubleshooterer three oh three seven

1050
01:25:28.399 --> 01:25:33.920
one three talks seven one three eight
two five five Oh man, we have

1051
01:25:34.000 --> 01:25:39.600
some follow ups. Here's the bottom
line, Joe Marie, there's nothing we

1052
01:25:39.600 --> 01:25:43.560
can say about this keto thing,
because everything I can say is this,

1053
01:25:44.439 --> 01:25:45.800
What are you looking for? Are
you looking to get money back? What

1054
01:25:45.840 --> 01:25:50.199
are you looking for well, I
don't. It's not so much about the

1055
01:25:50.239 --> 01:25:56.479
money right now. It's about this
continued sawa that goes on as far as

1056
01:25:56.520 --> 01:26:01.359
they promote and they give you places
to order more from. I just love

1057
01:26:01.399 --> 01:26:04.359
to shut it down. I mean, well, you know what, though,

1058
01:26:04.359 --> 01:26:09.079
that's just one of so many.
As I said, they're not going

1059
01:26:09.159 --> 01:26:13.720
to shut it down. Listen,
our government is so swamped with these supplements

1060
01:26:13.720 --> 01:26:17.359
and these claims of all kinds of
stuff. My goodness, there are so

1061
01:26:17.479 --> 01:26:24.680
many false claims out there. I
agree as I said, they truly,

1062
01:26:24.840 --> 01:26:31.520
I mean this sincerely. They will
not go after people doing this unless it

1063
01:26:31.680 --> 01:26:38.800
threatens their benefactors. And their benefactors
are big pharma and all of that.

1064
01:26:39.119 --> 01:26:43.880
I'm serious. It's not a conspiracy
theory. It's the truth. I mean,

1065
01:26:44.760 --> 01:26:51.199
if if if Pfizer or another drug
company complained to the government about like,

1066
01:26:51.319 --> 01:26:58.199
hey, this Katosa's thing is cutting
down on our sales of semiglutide or

1067
01:26:58.520 --> 01:27:02.760
some other weight loss up or weight
loss drug, then they might go after

1068
01:27:02.800 --> 01:27:09.239
the Keto people. But they will
not go after They do not go after

1069
01:27:09.399 --> 01:27:14.000
supplement people. People think they do
go after supplement people to protect the public.

1070
01:27:14.319 --> 01:27:20.399
They do not. The FDA is
the Food and Drug Administration and what

1071
01:27:20.439 --> 01:27:26.520
it should be called. It should
be called the food and drug promoter of

1072
01:27:26.600 --> 01:27:31.319
big pharma and big farms. And
if people after where's who they go after

1073
01:27:32.239 --> 01:27:40.479
for food? They go after people
who do non GMO foods and healthy organic

1074
01:27:40.880 --> 01:27:45.079
foods. They go after them and
say, you must boil your honey,

1075
01:27:45.439 --> 01:27:50.840
you must pasteurize your dairy products,
you must add GMOs, or you must

1076
01:27:51.000 --> 01:27:59.520
add these additives and these artificial ingredients. You are not allowed to do anything

1077
01:27:59.640 --> 01:28:03.520
healthy that competes with our big corporate
farms. You think I'm kidding. In

1078
01:28:03.640 --> 01:28:09.960
fact, if you have a private
farm next door to a big corporate farm

1079
01:28:10.439 --> 01:28:15.560
and their seeds happen to blow in
the air, or if it's pollenized by

1080
01:28:15.720 --> 01:28:24.840
bees naturally and your farm happens to
take on some of the GMOs that were

1081
01:28:24.960 --> 01:28:30.960
used in the corporate farm, the
corporate farm can sue the private farm for

1082
01:28:30.279 --> 01:28:36.600
infringing on their patented GMO formulas.
Did you know that I swear to God,

1083
01:28:36.640 --> 01:28:41.399
when you look into this stuff you
will think. You won't think I'm

1084
01:28:41.439 --> 01:28:45.319
crazy. Here's the next thing,
so they protect that's the food part of

1085
01:28:45.359 --> 01:28:49.439
the Food and Drug Administration as far
as the drug part of the Food and

1086
01:28:49.520 --> 01:28:58.199
Drug Administration, they protect big pharma
from anything natural that can do the same

1087
01:28:58.279 --> 01:29:05.399
thing. Any If you propose something
that can do it naturally and big Pharma

1088
01:29:05.720 --> 01:29:11.199
is selling a product that does it
artificially, they will go after it.

1089
01:29:11.600 --> 01:29:15.239
If it's not competing with big Pharma, they will not go after it.

1090
01:29:15.520 --> 01:29:20.800
If you look at the pattern of
the FDA, you will find that they

1091
01:29:20.840 --> 01:29:30.119
go after small natural, organic farmers, supplements and other things that compete with

1092
01:29:30.359 --> 01:29:38.920
corporate farms, GMOs and big pharma. The Food and Drug Administration perpetuates all

1093
01:29:38.960 --> 01:29:42.680
of that. It used to be
just the opposite, but it's no longer

1094
01:29:42.720 --> 01:29:47.000
that way. No longer that way. Right now they are in it to

1095
01:29:48.319 --> 01:29:57.479
promote and market and to really lift
up all of those agencies. That's what

1096
01:29:57.520 --> 01:30:00.119
they're doing. They're in bed with
them, and that's just the way it

1097
01:30:00.199 --> 01:30:04.119
is. Unfortunately, so you can't
shut him down, that's the answer.

1098
01:30:04.159 --> 01:30:10.359
You can't shut him down. Now
there are some people in government now.

1099
01:30:10.359 --> 01:30:15.560
It used to be it used to
be that progressive liberal people were all for

1100
01:30:16.159 --> 01:30:25.600
natural, holistic all of the natural, organic, holistic, wonderful health things,

1101
01:30:26.399 --> 01:30:32.039
and conservatives were more like traditional somehow
I think I woke up in bizarro

1102
01:30:32.359 --> 01:30:38.319
universe. That's what happened to me
because I used to protest against big pharma

1103
01:30:38.600 --> 01:30:45.000
and big government and mandatory this and
mandatory that I use, and censorship.

1104
01:30:45.000 --> 01:30:48.760
I used to protest against that,
and I was called a screaming liberal.

1105
01:30:49.399 --> 01:30:54.760
Then over the years, I kind
of must have gone into a coma,

1106
01:30:54.920 --> 01:31:00.840
and I woke up in a bizarro
universe where those ideals of free speech and

1107
01:31:01.000 --> 01:31:08.640
anti big government and anti pharma and
anti you know, all of this other

1108
01:31:08.680 --> 01:31:13.520
stuff became a conservative value, and
instead of being called a crazy liberal,

1109
01:31:13.800 --> 01:31:16.199
I was then called a crazy conservative. So I don't know how it happened.

1110
01:31:16.560 --> 01:31:21.079
I never changed anything. I never
changed my beliefs, and I went

1111
01:31:21.159 --> 01:31:27.079
from being supposedly being called this to
being called that. Don't know how it

1112
01:31:27.159 --> 01:31:30.560
happened, So it's I call it
bizarro universe. You'll never get rid.

1113
01:31:30.840 --> 01:31:38.479
You will never get rid of phony
supplements unless they compete with Pfizer. Okay,

1114
01:31:38.760 --> 01:31:42.199
there you go. Three zero three
seven one three talk seven one three

1115
01:31:42.279 --> 01:31:45.000
eight two five five. By the
way, I think I thanked you for

1116
01:31:45.079 --> 01:31:48.520
calling several times, but then again, that's okay, we have more coming

1123
01:32:23.159 --> 01:32:31.960
three nine two zero sixteen twenty two. I'm Tom Martino. You're troubleshooter.

1124
01:32:32.039 --> 01:32:36.039
I'm just answering a text. Someone
wants to know they have vinyl sighting.

1125
01:32:36.079 --> 01:32:40.560
It was destroyed in a storm.
What would you recommend is good replacement?

1126
01:32:40.600 --> 01:32:44.439
I recommend stucco. Listen stucco,
even on small homes. It's not that

1127
01:32:44.560 --> 01:32:47.720
expensive, and man, will it
enhance the value of your home? You

1128
01:32:47.880 --> 01:32:53.880
be shocked. It's not as expensive
as you think it's and when you consider

1129
01:32:53.960 --> 01:32:58.439
it's little or no maintenance. Now, if you had to go with anything

1130
01:32:58.439 --> 01:33:03.680
else, I would go with a
steel coated a vinyl coated steel, not

1131
01:33:03.760 --> 01:33:09.319
just vinyl, but vinyl coded steel
and Genesis, by the way, does

1132
01:33:09.359 --> 01:33:12.079
the stucco. They do a great
job. They also do the other siding

1133
01:33:12.119 --> 01:33:16.640
Genesis Total Exteriors dot Com. Uh, they're they're great at that. Now

1134
01:33:17.119 --> 01:33:19.479
I want to go to the phones
people at Midwaity. We have also Paul

1135
01:33:19.479 --> 01:33:24.560
the Waterman. Somebody wants to know
about nanoplastics real quick, Paul. They

1136
01:33:24.600 --> 01:33:29.840
want to know ken it. What
about well water? Yeah? Absolutely,

1137
01:33:30.000 --> 01:33:34.359
nanoplastics can contaminate well water. Why
because of runoff and all of that.

1138
01:33:34.520 --> 01:33:40.279
Absolutely correct, Nanoplasts fall and all
right, nanoplastics are absolutely in every single

1139
01:33:40.359 --> 01:33:45.399
major body water here in Colorado.
Coloradleston University went out they tested and tested

1140
01:33:45.439 --> 01:33:50.279
positive for nanoplastics. So not only
is p files forever chemicals and issue and

1141
01:33:50.319 --> 01:33:54.359
well water, but they have the
same problems we do. Is it too

1142
01:33:54.399 --> 01:33:56.520
late to turn the corner and get
rid of them? I mean, come

1143
01:33:56.560 --> 01:33:59.479
on, this sounds like I think, well it is. I mean it's

1144
01:33:59.560 --> 01:34:03.239
nanos don't go away, they don't
disappear, they just get smaller from the

1145
01:34:03.279 --> 01:34:08.479
deterioration of all the plastics we've been
using. Absolutely correct, Okay, So

1146
01:34:08.520 --> 01:34:12.439
I want to go somewhere with this
and that those are based on petroleum based

1147
01:34:12.439 --> 01:34:15.720
products plastics. Okay, so we
are overdoing it. We are overdoing it,

1148
01:34:15.800 --> 01:34:18.800
remember when we're I mean, there's
balance. What I'm talking about this

1149
01:34:19.000 --> 01:34:26.439
is ecology is important. Ecology,
environmentalism is important to an extent. I

1150
01:34:26.439 --> 01:34:30.439
mean, you can go crazy with
that stuff, but it is important that

1151
01:34:30.520 --> 01:34:34.199
we take good care of our environment
because we are poisoning it. Absolutely correct.

1152
01:34:34.880 --> 01:34:39.680
Not only that, but think about
this. We don't recycle plastics.

1153
01:34:40.199 --> 01:34:43.479
I mean, I mean because there's
too much of them getting the landfills and

1154
01:34:43.560 --> 01:34:47.119
so, I mean when we were
kids, glass bottles were recyclable. Now

1155
01:34:47.279 --> 01:34:50.920
they broke down, that's right.
But now we're in a situation where you've

1156
01:34:50.960 --> 01:34:58.199
got generations of those plastics to the
point where fish are breathing them in in

1157
01:34:58.239 --> 01:35:00.920
the waters, even fish too.
Right, there's in the oceans. This

1158
01:35:01.000 --> 01:35:03.239
is a globe. I don't think
if you went out to the middle of

1159
01:35:03.279 --> 01:35:06.159
the ocean, would there be nanoplastics. Oh yeah, absolutely? Come on,

1160
01:35:06.319 --> 01:35:11.359
think about the Think about the island
of plastics that they found floating in

1161
01:35:11.359 --> 01:35:14.760
the ocean, all the plastic bottles. What do you think New York does

1162
01:35:14.800 --> 01:35:18.520
with their garbage? They dump it
in the ocean. God it's kind of

1163
01:35:18.560 --> 01:35:25.720
scary. Actually. Now I want
to talk to uh Ray about his car

1164
01:35:25.760 --> 01:35:30.079
warranty. Ray, what's going on? Yes? Or I've my car wheeled

1165
01:35:30.079 --> 01:35:33.640
down? I've got one of them
protection plans? Yeah? Now, Ray,

1166
01:35:34.000 --> 01:35:39.680
what kind of protection plan do you
have? Oh? They said I

1167
01:35:39.720 --> 01:35:43.520
had the premium one and car.
Okay, but but when? What I

1168
01:35:43.600 --> 01:35:46.680
mean is this when did you get
it? You have a twenty ten I

1169
01:35:46.720 --> 01:35:53.600
see on here Chevy Traverse. Yeah, I've had about round a year.

1170
01:35:54.520 --> 01:36:00.840
You've had the traversy year? Or
the plan? I had it before before

1171
01:36:00.840 --> 01:36:04.119
I got the plan? Okay?
So you have how many miles on your

1172
01:36:04.159 --> 01:36:11.159
twenty ten Chevy Traverse? Wow?
One can? And when? And you

1173
01:36:11.319 --> 01:36:15.239
bought this plan last year? Yeah? The plan isn't giving me a problem?

1174
01:36:15.439 --> 01:36:21.039
The shop what is? They approved
it? The thing is my friend,

1175
01:36:21.199 --> 01:36:25.319
They wouldn't answer the phone. Fin
My son finally got ahold of them

1176
01:36:25.560 --> 01:36:29.439
Friday and they told him that the
car would be ready by the end of

1177
01:36:29.439 --> 01:36:34.760
this week. Oh so you're what
what protection plan do you have? Have?

1178
01:36:34.880 --> 01:36:40.760
Carshield? And it actually approved?
What kind of I'm anxious to hear

1179
01:36:40.800 --> 01:36:45.399
this? An engine? What an
engine? An entire engine? What happened?

1180
01:36:45.439 --> 01:36:50.680
To your engine. I don't know. I just seated up and they

1181
01:36:50.720 --> 01:36:57.439
approved a new engine. Yes,
the shop, and they're supposed to be

1182
01:36:57.439 --> 01:37:00.119
putting that in and everything and uh. And then when my son talked to

1183
01:37:00.199 --> 01:37:02.840
him, he wanted to see enough. He just wanted an update about the

1184
01:37:02.880 --> 01:37:05.920
car. He whoodn't it might be
ready. They told him that I would

1185
01:37:05.920 --> 01:37:11.560
have to take eight hundred dollars in
and I called car Shield. I didn't

1186
01:37:11.560 --> 01:37:15.399
call the shop. I called car
Shield and I asked, and he said

1187
01:37:15.600 --> 01:37:18.039
said, no, you have a
premium plan. You have no out of

1188
01:37:18.079 --> 01:37:25.039
pocket expenses except for your deductible.
And your deductible is one hundred and fifty

1189
01:37:25.119 --> 01:37:29.880
dollars. Okay, what's the name
of the shop. I don't have it

1190
01:37:29.960 --> 01:37:32.720
right with me because I'm blind.
I have a car and I'm blind,

1191
01:37:32.880 --> 01:37:36.920
but someone drives it for me.
No, I get it now, and

1192
01:37:38.039 --> 01:37:40.520
now I want you took it to
one Let me get this straight. Now,

1193
01:37:40.760 --> 01:37:45.760
you took it to a shop who
wants you to pay eight hundred dollars.

1194
01:37:46.119 --> 01:37:49.000
Yes, they actually came and picked
it up because they told me I

1195
01:37:49.000 --> 01:37:53.119
had it's voice of shops wherever I
wanted. And I said, well,

1196
01:37:53.199 --> 01:37:56.840
now I get it. All,
but they want eight hundred dollars and your

1197
01:37:56.920 --> 01:38:05.560
deductible is how much? One fifty? But did you ask why they I

1198
01:38:05.560 --> 01:38:10.720
guess they told my son that the
that the plan wasn't covering at all,

1199
01:38:11.600 --> 01:38:15.920
but it proved it. You know, you know, I do not have

1200
01:38:15.960 --> 01:38:20.600
a contract with the shop. I
never signed anything with the shop. And

1201
01:38:20.720 --> 01:38:24.479
uh, the shop when when they
picked it up, they called me and

1202
01:38:24.520 --> 01:38:29.199
they told me that they would take
care of everything. But now they're wanting

1203
01:38:29.239 --> 01:38:31.119
more money. Well, we got
to figure out. There must be a

1204
01:38:31.199 --> 01:38:35.079
reason I need to get Who can
we talk? I mean, how do

1205
01:38:35.119 --> 01:38:38.920
we find the name of the shop
and who you're dealing with over there?

1206
01:38:40.239 --> 01:38:43.520
I'm gonna have to call you back
with that because I can't see right now

1207
01:38:43.760 --> 01:38:45.880
and my son had to leave.
When is your son going to be back?

1208
01:38:46.159 --> 01:38:48.800
Ray? When is your son going
to be be back? He'll be

1209
01:38:48.840 --> 01:38:54.720
back this evening, but he probably
can be here tomorrow. But when when

1210
01:38:54.760 --> 01:38:59.520
I what? I wanted to see
where I stand because I ran into a

1211
01:38:59.560 --> 01:39:01.800
problem like this before. Well,
you know, Ray, we'll be happy

1212
01:39:01.840 --> 01:39:06.399
to tell you that we need to
know the copy of your plan with Carshield.

1213
01:39:06.840 --> 01:39:11.720
Maybe someone you've dealt with a car
shield that you talk to. I'd

1214
01:39:11.760 --> 01:39:14.680
also want to know the name of
the shop. See, we just need

1215
01:39:14.680 --> 01:39:16.800
these basics and we'll help walk you
through it. You don't have to worry

1216
01:39:16.800 --> 01:39:21.399
about it. We'll help you,
Okay. So Kaschina, who should we

1217
01:39:21.439 --> 01:39:27.680
give this to? Chopper? Is
he around? He is not, unfortunately

1218
01:39:27.800 --> 01:39:30.039
taking cases today, but we do
have doc here. No, no,

1219
01:39:30.079 --> 01:39:34.399
but doc, I've loaded them up. I think I really would like to

1220
01:39:34.439 --> 01:39:38.319
get so they don't have to get
on this today. But because he has

1221
01:39:38.359 --> 01:39:41.720
to get with his son and we
just need to sort through this, so

1222
01:39:41.840 --> 01:39:45.800
let's give it to someone I'm not
even sure is gear Head around still?

1223
01:39:45.800 --> 01:39:50.159
Yes, I mean let's give it
to someone who can at least get the

1224
01:39:50.199 --> 01:39:58.880
basic information and find out why this
discrepancy. Okay, So just let me

1225
01:39:58.960 --> 01:40:00.600
know who your give it to.
A eventually here and I'll mark it down.

1226
01:40:01.000 --> 01:40:05.279
But I think we need to help
this guy out. So ray hold

Kyle, what kind of bad car purchase

1229
01:40:16.720 --> 01:40:21.319
did you make? I didn't make
it. I have a friend that made

1230
01:40:21.359 --> 01:40:26.560
it two years ago. Two years
ago. Was it a newer used car?

1231

01:41:16.920 --> 01:41:19.800
all right, So, Kyle,
two years ago a friend bought a car,

1241
01:41:19.840 --> 01:41:24.199
a used car. What's going on
with it? Oh, it's a

1242
01:41:24.279 --> 01:41:29.319
twenty fourteen Nissa Morano. Yeah,
she lives in Utah, Salt Lake City.

1243
01:41:29.359 --> 01:41:31.920
At the time, she got it
from a carmac which was shipped here

1244
01:41:31.920 --> 01:41:36.520
from Loveland out there. At the
time she paid had like eighty thousand miles.

1245
01:41:36.520 --> 01:41:44.159
She paid about twenty one thousand for
it. Twenty one, twenty one

1246
01:41:44.199 --> 01:41:46.720
thousand, and she's so seventeen on
it now, but now the car is

1247
01:41:46.760 --> 01:41:51.680
worth barely seven thousand dollars. She
haven't trying to figure out what we're turning

1248
01:41:51.680 --> 01:41:56.960
to where her options are. Well, okay, let me get this straight.

1249
01:41:57.600 --> 01:42:03.479
She bought the car for twenty one
thousand dollars. Yeah, and it

1250
01:42:03.520 --> 01:42:11.520
was two years ago. Yeah,
okay, And what are you calling about

1251
01:42:11.560 --> 01:42:15.560
the fact that it depreciated or that
she paid too much? Yeah? Maybe

1252
01:42:15.600 --> 01:42:18.279
that she paid too much depreciate,
you know, I went down in prak

1253
01:42:18.319 --> 01:42:21.680
Off. But I'm trying to figure
out what kind of options does she have

1254
01:42:21.840 --> 01:42:26.800
to help herself out, because that's
that's a ten thousand dollars difference, so

1255
01:42:26.880 --> 01:42:30.640
that she's trying to figure out what
she can do, Well, how does

1256
01:42:30.680 --> 01:42:35.840
she know? Okay, when she
bought it. She bought it two years

1257
01:42:35.840 --> 01:42:41.680
ago, So what why did she
pay twenty one thousand? What went into

1258
01:42:41.680 --> 01:42:45.600
that price? Did she trade?
Did she trade hold on? Did she

1259
01:42:45.800 --> 01:42:50.960
trade in a car? I'm not
I'm not sure she did. I do

1260
01:42:51.079 --> 01:42:56.439
know she also got one of those
warranties through car Kile. Here's what could

1261
01:42:56.439 --> 01:43:00.439
have happened. Okay, I'm going
to give you different possibilities. One,

1262
01:43:00.079 --> 01:43:04.359
she could have paid too much for
the car, plain and simple, and

1263
01:43:04.399 --> 01:43:09.800
then put too many add ons and
put too many add ons number one.

1264
01:43:10.079 --> 01:43:15.039
Number two, she could have traded
in a car that had negative equity that

1265
01:43:15.199 --> 01:43:23.399
was added to this either way.
Either way, there's no recourse for paying

1266
01:43:23.439 --> 01:43:29.600
too much. No, so,
whatever the car's worth, now, what

1267
01:43:29.760 --> 01:43:36.199
is it worth? You just roughed
like okay, and what is she Okay?

Let's go to the phones. I got

1285
01:45:05.680 --> 01:45:10.720
Paul the waterman with mewaterpros dot net. We've been talking a little bit about

1286
01:45:10.760 --> 01:45:14.520
water, microplastics, filtering your water. It goes without saying, in my

1287
01:45:14.600 --> 01:45:18.359
opinion, everyone should have a water
system of some kind. And I want

1288
01:45:18.359 --> 01:45:21.920
to say something real quick here with
Paul. Paul, I'd venture to say,

1289
01:45:23.680 --> 01:45:26.399
and you might think I'm crazy,
but you can damn near do your

1290
01:45:26.479 --> 01:45:32.720
laundry without detergent absolutely correct. How
what I mean I mean that sincerely?

1291
01:45:32.840 --> 01:45:38.760
I mean I have done with soft
water things you wouldn't believe. Soft water

1292
01:45:39.800 --> 01:45:42.399
breaks down dirt it's just like zero
rest. That's what they do. So

1293
01:45:42.600 --> 01:45:45.840
zero res uses the same in cleaning
your carpet and gets rid of stains.

1294
01:45:45.840 --> 01:45:49.560
What do you think that the clean
water? You know, after you showed

1295
01:45:49.600 --> 01:45:54.880
me the demonstration where I took some
of your water and I put took supergloff

1296
01:45:54.920 --> 01:45:58.920
my hands, I swear to you, I'm thinking now of getting it at

1297
01:45:58.920 --> 01:46:03.199
my hangar because I take water from
here to there. I swear to you,

1298
01:46:03.640 --> 01:46:11.199
I use it now instead of chemicals. It's I cannot believe the cleaning

1299
01:46:11.239 --> 01:46:15.079
power of water. Water. Water
is very aggressive when you have clean water,

1300
01:46:15.159 --> 01:46:16.760
So it's going to attack anything aggressive
in a good way, not in

1301
01:46:16.800 --> 01:46:19.479
a Coca Cola way, right,
And so what it means is is that

1302
01:46:19.880 --> 01:46:25.399
food stains are organic stains. Water
is going to break down and it must

1303
01:46:25.479 --> 01:46:29.199
be really good for your digestive track
and all of that. Seriously health wise,

1304
01:46:29.319 --> 01:46:31.079
Well, you know the water that
you drink here, you know at

1305
01:46:31.079 --> 01:46:35.319
your studio, Okay, So it's
acidic water, and it matches where your

1306
01:46:35.319 --> 01:46:40.279
stomach. Your stomach's acidic. So
you know, any any of this alkaline

1307
01:46:40.319 --> 01:46:44.520
water and and maybe deputy docum Way
and anything that has a higher level of

1308
01:46:44.600 --> 01:46:47.279
pH or counterbalancing to what your stomach
acid is. Yeah, so what our

1309
01:46:47.319 --> 01:46:51.079
old water? Does it enhance flavors
because it attacks the flavors because it breaks

1310
01:46:51.079 --> 01:46:55.079
everything down. Wow, all right, now let's go back to the phone.

1311
01:46:55.119 --> 01:46:57.960
Now, Kyle said his friend bought
a car, and we got to

1312
01:46:58.000 --> 01:47:01.680
get to the bottom line. But
there may not be anything illegal going on.

1313
01:47:02.079 --> 01:47:05.560
But she bought a car, a
twenty fourteen Nissan two years ago.

1314
01:47:06.479 --> 01:47:11.479
She paid twenty one grand. Now
the car's worth seventy two hundred. What

1315
01:47:11.520 --> 01:47:15.000
does she owe on the car?
Right now? Do you know she owes

1316
01:47:15.039 --> 01:47:19.479
about seventeen thousand on the car?
Okay, Now, what I want to

1317
01:47:19.479 --> 01:47:26.880
know is this is the car running
right? Running? Well? Yes?

1318
01:47:26.960 --> 01:47:30.760
And no, she's had some issues
with it. I did find out though,

1319
01:47:30.760 --> 01:47:32.199
she did not trade in the vehicle, so I think she find him

1320
01:47:32.319 --> 01:47:38.199
the whole thing. Okay. Now, it's very possible she paid too much.

1321
01:47:38.760 --> 01:47:42.760
If she owes seventeen grand, I
wouldn't know. But even if she

1322
01:47:42.920 --> 01:47:46.039
did, there's no law against people
being cheated. I don't mean that,

1323
01:47:46.680 --> 01:47:50.359
of course, There's there's no law
against people being you know what, You

1324
01:47:50.399 --> 01:47:54.159
don't call it cheated, but being
snow jobs, you know, what I

1325
01:47:54.239 --> 01:47:59.520
mean, and to paying too much
and it might be unconscionable. I don't

1326
01:47:59.520 --> 01:48:01.479
know what that was worth. But
here's here's what I can tell you.

1327
01:48:01.560 --> 01:48:06.520
Okay, there's only a few ways
out of a bad deal. Okay,

1328
01:48:06.720 --> 01:48:10.439
I'm gonna I'm gonna give him to
you. And I tell this to young

1329
01:48:10.479 --> 01:48:16.199
people because I've had young people.
Actually their first bout with bad credit or

1330
01:48:16.239 --> 01:48:25.119
with with bad financing and finances that
throws them into a tizzy is a car

1331
01:48:25.159 --> 01:48:30.159
purchase. I had one kid who
bought a car and he paid over paid

1332
01:48:30.199 --> 01:48:33.760
for it, and then he got
tired of it and it wasn't running right.

1333
01:48:34.079 --> 01:48:39.079
So he had this old car and
he then had it to trade it

1334
01:48:39.119 --> 01:48:43.800
in and he had to put negative
equity into the next car. So he

1335
01:48:44.159 --> 01:48:46.640
ended up doing this two or three
times to get out of bad cars.

1336
01:48:47.159 --> 01:48:51.479
He ended up with an old,
old piece of crap for which he owed

1337
01:48:51.520 --> 01:48:57.840
twenty three thousand dollars. Now the
car was worth four or five thousand,

1338
01:48:57.960 --> 01:49:02.800
because he kept having to buy other
cars and he had to keep refinancing the

1339
01:49:02.880 --> 01:49:09.720
negative equity into the next car.
So with twenty three thousand dollars in what

1340
01:49:09.880 --> 01:49:16.359
he owed and a four thousand dollars
asset. This man was upside down more

1341
01:49:16.399 --> 01:49:23.119
than sixteen thousand dollars, more so
like seventeen or eighteen thousand. There was

1342
01:49:23.199 --> 01:49:26.960
only a couple ways out of it. One would be to keep the car

1343
01:49:27.520 --> 01:49:30.720
and pay off everything and then when
he's done, start from scratch, but

1344
01:49:30.880 --> 01:49:35.640
that was impossible because the car wouldn't
last, so he had to do a

1345
01:49:35.680 --> 01:49:41.920
bankruptcy. So there's only two ways
out that I can see. One,

1346
01:49:42.279 --> 01:49:45.880
well, three ways really. One
is to do a bankruptcy and walk away

1347
01:49:45.880 --> 01:49:49.840
from it, or you walk away
from it and if they come after you,

1348
01:49:49.840 --> 01:49:56.079
you do a bankruptcy. Or number
two, you pay it off and

1349
01:49:56.239 --> 01:50:00.319
drive it as long as humanly possible. After you pay it off, even

1350
01:50:00.359 --> 01:50:04.119
if you'll just have it long enough
to pay it off, then you start

1351
01:50:04.159 --> 01:50:09.920
from scratch and do a smart purchase. At least you'll have good credit and

1352
01:50:09.960 --> 01:50:15.439
you'll be able to buy something new
and something lower priced with a good warranty.

1353
01:50:15.840 --> 01:50:17.680
So you either pay it off or
you do a bankruptcy. Or the

1354
01:50:17.720 --> 01:50:21.399
third option, which I do not
recommend, is you find a full bigger

1355
01:50:21.399 --> 01:50:27.439
than you to sell the car.
So she's not going to have any magic

1356
01:50:27.520 --> 01:50:30.920
way out of this. So you
asked what her options are. But those

1357
01:50:30.920 --> 01:50:36.000
are the options. That's what I
figured. So I appreciate the appreciation.

1358
01:50:35.960 --> 01:50:40.840
It's really too it's really sad.
Do you see, And I'm serious?

1359
01:50:40.840 --> 01:50:45.760
How old is she? By the
way, she's thirty three? Okay?

1360
01:50:45.920 --> 01:50:49.720
And is she in a lot of
debt otherwise, not that I'm aware of.

1361
01:50:49.840 --> 01:50:55.399
We don't really talk about financing.
Okay, how do you know her?

1362
01:50:56.520 --> 01:50:59.039
We I've known her for a little
while. We met through a mutual

1363
01:50:59.079 --> 01:51:03.520
friend There's a reason I'm asking this. Is it like a just a platonic

1364
01:51:03.600 --> 01:51:08.760
friendship or a romance? Is it
something? Yeah? Because okay, okay,

1365
01:51:08.760 --> 01:51:11.760
good, good, Now here's the
deal. Because if it was romantic

1366
01:51:11.760 --> 01:51:14.520
and you were ever thinking about getting
involved with her, you want her to

1367
01:51:14.560 --> 01:51:17.960
do this before. But okay now, but you still want her to know

1368
01:51:18.520 --> 01:51:24.439
that a bankruptcy is pretty extreme,
but it it is. You know,

1369
01:51:24.880 --> 01:51:29.800
if this car will not last,
she is going to end up. You

1370
01:51:29.800 --> 01:51:33.079
know, Let's say let's say it
goes down to six thousand dollars and she

1371
01:51:33.119 --> 01:51:38.399
owes sixteen, She's going to be
ten thousand dollars upside down. If this

1372
01:51:38.520 --> 01:51:43.960
car will not last, If the
car will last it actually behooves her to

1373
01:51:44.079 --> 01:51:46.399
keep it and to try to pay
it off and be done with it.

1374
01:51:47.840 --> 01:51:51.560
Yeah, so you know, and
if you need any other help, give

1375
01:51:51.600 --> 01:51:55.640
us a call. Sorry, it
happened to her. Three zero three seven

1376
01:51:55.760 --> 01:52:00.159
one three talk seven one three eight
two five five. Now let's talk to

1377
01:52:00.520 --> 01:52:04.159
Sam. Sam. Sorry for the
wait. What's going on with motor vehicles?

1378
01:52:04.239 --> 01:52:12.920
Sam? Hi, Tom, So
I got DUI back. I had

1379
01:52:12.960 --> 01:52:17.600
a good interlock. When did you
get a dui? Oh, back in

1380
01:52:17.680 --> 01:52:24.840
twenty sixteen? Okay, until I
had to wait until April this year to

1381
01:52:24.840 --> 01:52:29.000
get my interlock and my license back. I went through the whole process.

1382
01:52:29.880 --> 01:52:33.720
Hold on, hold on, are
you saying are you saying that you did

1383
01:52:33.760 --> 01:52:42.039
not have a license since twenty sixteen? That's correct? Why why so long?

1384
01:52:44.760 --> 01:52:47.960
It's just a it's the DUI process. Yeah yeah, Wait wait a

1385
01:52:48.000 --> 01:52:53.399
minute, that's that's okay, that's
that'sir. I know, I understand that.

1386
01:52:53.479 --> 01:52:57.359
It just sounds extreme to me that
you lost your license for more than

1387
01:52:57.399 --> 01:53:00.039
eight years or seven years. But
go ahead, anyway, what else is

1388
01:53:00.039 --> 01:53:06.000
going on? It turns out every
time I've gotten to go get my interlock

1389
01:53:06.159 --> 01:53:14.439
calibrated, the technician hasn't been sending
in my reports. So I got a

1390
01:53:14.520 --> 01:53:18.439
letter from the DMV saying that my
license is going to be suspended again because

1391
01:53:19.319 --> 01:53:27.199
my interlock provider has not been sending
in the reports. Okay, your interlock

1392
01:53:27.399 --> 01:53:31.800
I have. Your interlock provider is
the one that is is that the one

1393
01:53:31.880 --> 01:53:39.760
required to send in your reports?
Yes? Yes? Why has he not

1394
01:53:39.840 --> 01:53:48.399
been? According to Colorado DMV,
this is an issue with all interlock providers.

1395
01:53:49.199 --> 01:53:58.720
They have you with them sending in
your reports. Wow. So even

1396
01:53:58.720 --> 01:54:01.680
though I've been following every thing to
a t with the DMV and my interlock,

1397
01:54:01.840 --> 01:54:05.800
making my payments, going in to
get calibrated, they didn't send in

1398
01:54:05.840 --> 01:54:11.960
the reports. So my license got
suspended again. It actually did get suspended.

1399
01:54:13.640 --> 01:54:17.920
Yeah. I got the letter on
the fifth of July when everything was

1400
01:54:17.960 --> 01:54:23.399
closed over the weekend. It's the
holiday weekend. Okay, this is terrible.

1401
01:54:23.520 --> 01:54:30.319
Now did you call your your your
interlock provider since seven thirty this morning?

1402
01:54:31.840 --> 01:54:36.039
What do they what do they say? Do they say anything at all?

1403
01:54:36.680 --> 01:54:40.680
Like you didn't talk to him yet? But but let me ask you

1404
01:54:40.760 --> 01:54:47.680
this, how many reports to him
I have talked? It's called Smart Smart

1405
01:54:47.680 --> 01:54:55.520
Start interlock. That's my provider.
Okay, I have talked to them and

1406
01:54:55.600 --> 01:54:59.600
they say, oh, we didn't
send in the report. How long?

1407
01:55:00.000 --> 01:55:03.680
How many reports? Listen? I
need to know some basics. How often

1408
01:55:04.359 --> 01:55:09.800
are they supposed to send in reports? You are supposed to go get your

1409
01:55:09.800 --> 01:55:16.520
interlock device calibrated every sixty days.
So I went in. My last calibration

1410
01:55:17.079 --> 01:55:21.920
was May thirtieth. I have a
receipt for that. They email it to

1411
01:55:23.039 --> 01:55:30.479
you. So my next calebration would
be July thirtieth. Did you only miss

1412
01:55:30.760 --> 01:55:36.520
Here's what I need to know.
Did you only miss one report? I

1413
01:55:36.640 --> 01:55:40.279
didn't miss it. They missed it, but yeah, you know what I'm

1414
01:55:40.319 --> 01:55:44.439
talking about, though, So only
one report was missing? Okay? Now,

1415
01:55:45.319 --> 01:55:49.159
will did they retain it somewhere?
Like? Is it inside the equipment?

1416
01:55:49.199 --> 01:55:51.640
Is that on a hard drive?
How is it retained? You know,

1417
01:55:55.680 --> 01:55:59.840
I have no clue. You call
the one eight hundred number that you're

1418
01:56:00.000 --> 01:56:05.279
provided with for the interlock, You
talk to the customer service person. They

1419
01:56:05.319 --> 01:56:11.239
say only the administration department can do
that. They try. Okay, but

1420
01:56:11.399 --> 01:56:15.119
here's what I'm asking Sam, Sam, Here's what I need to know with

1421
01:56:15.239 --> 01:56:19.520
the interlock device. Is it done
in the sky? Is it automatically downloaded

1422
01:56:19.560 --> 01:56:25.199
somewhere? Or does it have to
be done physically by the people who calibrated.

1423
01:56:27.279 --> 01:56:30.600
It has to be done physically by
the people that calibrated. Okay,

1424
01:56:30.760 --> 01:56:35.720
So they they download the information and
they send it to DMV under your name.

1425
01:56:38.119 --> 01:56:42.840
Correct, and now did not happen, okay, But what I need

1426
01:56:42.880 --> 01:56:47.239
to know and what you need to
know, is that information still in the

1427
01:56:47.319 --> 01:56:56.560
device or somewhere with them. According
to them, yes, and according to

1428
01:56:56.680 --> 01:57:01.399
them, at nine point thirty morning, they were going to send it right

1429
01:57:01.439 --> 01:57:06.760
off to the DMV. Now here's
the way. If it's no fault of

1430
01:57:06.800 --> 01:57:12.520
your own, and if this data
is somewhere where it can be downloaded,

1431
01:57:12.920 --> 01:57:17.479
then these people can clearly see you
have been using it as required, right,

1432
01:57:21.840 --> 01:57:28.279
I guess. But the DMV can't. What do you mean they can't

1433
01:57:29.279 --> 01:57:33.119
because smart Start never sent it to
the DMV. I get that. Here's

1434
01:57:33.159 --> 01:57:42.960
what I'm saying. If smart Start
sends it today or tomorrow, will DMV

1435
01:57:43.159 --> 01:57:48.680
look at it and readjust the suspension? So they say, but I can't

1436
01:57:48.680 --> 01:57:56.399
get any confirmation that they send it. Okay, when they do send it

1437
01:57:56.439 --> 01:57:59.960
is a sent hold on, when
they do send it is a scent elect

1438
01:58:00.119 --> 01:58:06.840
tronically, I'm assuming. So okay. And if they do send it and

1439
01:58:06.960 --> 01:58:12.039
it's sent to DMV, is there
a place you can call it DMV to

1440
01:58:12.039 --> 01:58:21.760
see if they got it? You
can try I've tried that three times today.

1441
01:58:21.920 --> 01:58:31.760
Yeah. They DMV tells me they
haven't received anything. Smart Start tells

1442
01:58:31.760 --> 01:58:35.359
me that they've sent it, but
they will not send me an even email

1443
01:58:35.439 --> 01:58:45.479
confirmation that they have sent it.
Okay. What I'm getting at is the

1444
01:58:45.479 --> 01:58:49.359
place that I want to go get
calibrated will not answer my phone calls.

1445
01:58:49.960 --> 01:58:54.199
I have thought. I thought you
said you talked to him this morning.

1446
01:58:55.920 --> 01:59:00.119
Well I talked to the secretary or
the front desk lady, and she's that

1447
01:59:00.159 --> 01:59:06.319
they would have their technician give me
a call back. Okay. So who

1448
01:59:06.319 --> 01:59:15.520
did tell you they sent it?
Then? Someone from smart Start? Okay,

1449
01:59:15.640 --> 01:59:18.560
So I'm a little confused. Hold
on, I'm a little confused.

1450
01:59:18.600 --> 01:59:27.039
So you're saying that people that calibrated
it are different than smart Start. So

1451
01:59:27.079 --> 01:59:32.239
it's a third party. Okay.
If you look up smart Start on Google,

1452
01:59:32.640 --> 01:59:36.720
it's always going to be at like
a mechanic shop. I get it.

1453
01:59:36.800 --> 01:59:44.960
Are you saying are you saying that
the interlock provider is smart Start but

1454
01:59:45.079 --> 01:59:49.920
they use independent contractors? To calibrate
it. Correct. But here's what I

1455
01:59:49.960 --> 01:59:55.800
want to know. How does smart
Start get the data to send to DMV.

1456
01:59:58.359 --> 02:00:01.439
I'd assume they have some compu uter
program? Should the state? Yeah?

1457
02:00:01.479 --> 02:00:05.359
But no, Here's what I'm asking
smart Like what I signed up for

1458
02:00:05.640 --> 02:00:10.640
they sent when I signed up for
it and got it installed in my vehicle,

1459
02:00:11.920 --> 02:00:15.079
the guy that set it up sent
everything right to the DMV. I'm

1460
02:00:15.119 --> 02:00:19.840
get into the computer sent it away
and I mean the guy at the local

1461
02:00:19.960 --> 02:00:26.119
office. So so yes, okay, So when you go to get it

1462
02:00:26.199 --> 02:00:29.640
calibrated, That's what I'm trying to
figure out. You go to a third

1463
02:00:29.720 --> 02:00:34.399
party. Does that third party have
the information or is it somehow sent to

1464
02:00:34.520 --> 02:00:42.560
smart Start. It's sent to smart
Start, and then smart Start sends it

1465
02:00:42.600 --> 02:00:49.600
to DMV. Correct. Okay,
So if smart Start tells you they got

1466
02:00:49.640 --> 02:00:56.039
the information and sent it in,
why do you doubt them? Because I

1467
02:00:56.079 --> 02:01:00.000
got a letter from the DMV saying
that they did not send it in.

1468
02:01:00.960 --> 02:01:05.720
It's been seventy five days since they
sent it in, and in Colorado law,

1469
02:01:06.000 --> 02:01:11.039
if you have not been serviced within
seventy five days, your license gets

1470
02:01:11.039 --> 02:01:15.920
suspended under the interlock hold. On

Hi Sam Martino your shooter thrill three
seven one three talk seven one three

1479
02:02:03.199 --> 02:02:10.479
A two five five. So it
seems to me, Sam, that if

1480
02:02:10.520 --> 02:02:14.640
you had an interlock and device and
it was supposed to be serviced by a

1481
02:02:14.680 --> 02:02:20.239
third party, then it's not smart
Start Interlock. Maybe the other place did

1482
02:02:20.239 --> 02:02:25.760
you wrong, Or if smart Start
says they got the information and sent it,

1483
02:02:26.159 --> 02:02:30.279
then it's not the third party.
But who is is? By the

1484
02:02:30.319 --> 02:02:35.039
way, is smart Start Interlock the
only interlock provider in the country or is

1485
02:02:35.079 --> 02:02:43.399
that just one of many? I
believe that's one of many. I actually

1486
02:02:43.960 --> 02:02:48.000
actually used Joe Laser to get my
license back. Joseph, I know,

1487
02:02:48.119 --> 02:02:58.199
but who who's the third party?
Who's the third party that starts? No,

1488
02:02:58.479 --> 02:03:02.279
it is smart Start like you bring
it. You bring into one of

1489
02:03:02.319 --> 02:03:06.239
these locations. It's usually a mechanic
shop and they have like a smart Start.

1490
02:03:06.399 --> 02:03:11.640
That's what I'm asking you. What
mechanic shop did you go to?

1491
02:03:12.359 --> 02:03:17.560
Yes, called Advanced Auto Glass in
Highland's Ranch, Okay County Line Road.

1492
02:03:18.039 --> 02:03:24.159
And have you ever talked to them? I've tried. I tried calling them

1493
02:03:24.199 --> 02:03:29.439
this morning. I talked to Nicole
at the front desk. I asked to

1494
02:03:29.479 --> 02:03:35.079
speak to the smart Tart smart Start
technician, and she said Jonathan, who

1495
02:03:35.119 --> 02:03:40.479
was the smart Start technician, would
give me a callback. I have not

1496
02:03:41.640 --> 02:03:45.520
heard back from him today. I
have tried calling back the shop and they

1497
02:03:45.560 --> 02:03:53.199
will not answer my calls. Now, okay, we need to call them

1498
02:03:53.239 --> 02:03:58.800
then. For you, this isn't
I've done everything that I need to.

1499
02:03:58.920 --> 02:04:01.199
I get it. I get it. Like why are you being I get

1500
02:04:01.239 --> 02:04:04.880
it? Why are you being punished
for what they didn't do? I get

1501
02:04:04.920 --> 02:04:10.239
it. You're not trying to hide
anything. I mean, I totally am

1502
02:04:10.279 --> 02:04:15.319
on your side on this. DM
so told me this is a constant problem

1503
02:04:15.640 --> 02:04:23.039
that they will not send the reports
in it from Advanced Autoglass or from smart

1504
02:04:23.039 --> 02:04:29.880
Start, just all interlock. It
doesn't matter what company it is, it's

1505
02:04:29.960 --> 02:04:35.000
all Interlock in Colorado. They're having
trouble getting reports sent in. So I'm

1506
02:04:35.039 --> 02:04:41.399
sure I'm not the only one that's
been going through this issue. This is

1507
02:04:41.439 --> 02:04:45.399
a good one then, that we're
helping with. So, Deputy Doc,

on Earnest. What's going on with that

1518
02:05:32.640 --> 02:05:42.000

1520
02:05:45.960 --> 02:05:47.920
call us? I'm trying to find
your call. I think that was back

1521
02:05:48.039 --> 02:05:54.359
in April. Tom and I had
the company is called Elite Film Services,

1522
02:05:54.359 --> 02:05:57.800
and we provided trucks to move a
bunch of dirt on a project off of

1523
02:05:57.840 --> 02:06:01.560
Federal Oh. We were We were
out about one hundred thousand dollars, and

1524
02:06:01.560 --> 02:06:04.760
then Doc helped out. He got
them on the line. We were both

1525
02:06:04.800 --> 02:06:09.880
on the line and just the I
guess the result is we got all our

1526
02:06:09.880 --> 02:06:14.399
money, little over one hundred thousand
dollars. What are you kidding me?

1527

three eight two five five Shelley, what's

1548
02:07:48.680 --> 02:07:54.319

talked to you on Tuesday last week and

1549
02:07:54.600 --> 02:07:59.880
about the HOA trying to charge me
the thirty thousand oh ye oh my god.

1550
02:08:00.119 --> 02:08:03.319
Yes it was terrible. You have
a leak in your condo. You

1551
02:08:03.359 --> 02:08:05.159
know what I was wondering about you
just the other day. I'm glad you

1552
02:08:05.199 --> 02:08:09.560
called. And here's what happened.
The leak in your condo damaged the floor

1553
02:08:09.600 --> 02:08:16.239
below and the condo below, and
they're expecting you to pay. We wanted

1554
02:08:16.279 --> 02:08:22.279
to get our insurance expert on to
see why that's happening, because you said

1555
02:08:22.760 --> 02:08:28.239
the pipe that burst was inside the
wall outside of your actual condo unit.

1556
02:08:28.319 --> 02:08:31.159
Right, No, it was in
my unit. It was behind the water

1557
02:08:31.239 --> 02:08:37.680
heater. Wait a minute, so
it was inside your dry wall. Yeah,

1558
02:08:37.159 --> 02:08:43.680
damn it. Okay, that's a
whole different story. So when that

1559
02:08:43.840 --> 02:08:46.800
broke, where were you when that
broke? I was at work. They

1560
02:08:46.840 --> 02:08:50.439
called me and I came home on
my break, so I mean, it's

1561
02:08:50.720 --> 02:08:54.600
got it stopped. They turned the
water off when they were trying to charge

1562
02:08:54.640 --> 02:08:58.239
me. Afterwards, they said it
was emergency and I wouldn't let them in.

1563
02:08:58.880 --> 02:09:01.359
Not true. I came home.
I had a friend come and stay

1564
02:09:01.399 --> 02:09:05.880
to let the plumber in. When
when you when you got called about an

1565
02:09:05.920 --> 02:09:09.359
emergency, you went home? Yeah? I was. It was actually close

1566
02:09:09.359 --> 02:09:11.720
to my lunch break. So I
told my boss. I said I when

1567
02:09:11.720 --> 02:09:16.319
you went home on when you went
home and entered your condo, what did

1568
02:09:16.359 --> 02:09:20.800
you find? I couldn't see anything. I let them in. The ha

1569
02:09:20.920 --> 02:09:24.760
president came and looked. I'm like, I don't see anything. Do you

1570
02:09:24.800 --> 02:09:28.880
have a floor drain in that closet
where the water heater is? Yeah?

1571
02:09:28.960 --> 02:09:31.840
They saw some water, but they
couldn't see. They thought it was my

1572
02:09:31.880 --> 02:09:33.640
water heater. They like, oh, your water heater. I'm like,

1573
02:09:33.680 --> 02:09:37.159
no, I don't think so.
There was a little bit, a little

1574
02:09:37.199 --> 02:09:39.880
bit of water, but not much. Well, how did they find it?

1575
02:09:39.760 --> 02:09:43.399
They finally called the plumber out was
They said, we need to see

1576
02:09:43.399 --> 02:09:46.239
a plumber come and they put those
things on the wall where it detect water.

1577
02:09:48.159 --> 02:09:52.439
And did it come? Did did
they hold on? Did the plumber

1578
02:09:52.479 --> 02:09:56.079
come the same day? He did? Yes, they had, and they

1579
02:09:56.079 --> 02:10:00.439
had the water off through the whole
building. But you said, let me

1580
02:10:00.479 --> 02:10:05.359
get this straight. You said the
water was in a pipe that was inside

1581
02:10:05.119 --> 02:10:11.159
your condo, not hidden in the
wall. Yeah, it's in the wall.

1582
02:10:11.479 --> 02:10:13.680
I mean it's nothing I could ever
see. Well, that's what I

1583
02:10:13.880 --> 02:10:22.159
just asked you. So it was
not in your condo, Yeah, no,

1584
02:10:22.239 --> 02:10:24.159
I mean it was. They're saying
it's in my condo because it was

1585
02:10:24.199 --> 02:10:28.880
behind my water heater. So it
may have been behind your water heater,

1586
02:10:30.039 --> 02:10:35.960
but I need a clear picture.
Was it behind the dry wall which was

1587
02:10:35.119 --> 02:10:43.520
behind your heater? Yeah, okay, pipes inside the wall. I did

1588
02:10:43.600 --> 02:10:50.680
not realize you could be held responsible
for Usually the bylaws exclude everything behind the

1589
02:10:50.800 --> 02:10:56.439
dry wall, and that's the hoa's
responsibility. But what was the cause?

1590
02:10:56.920 --> 02:11:01.439
What was the cause of the water
break? Did they say? He said

1591
02:11:01.439 --> 02:11:09.479
it was a rusty pipe, Paul, what would cause that corrosion? And

1592
02:11:09.520 --> 02:11:16.479
a pipe that doesn't even make sense? Was it a copper pipe? Like

1593
02:11:16.520 --> 02:11:18.239
I said, they never gave me
any reports. I have no idea,

1594
02:11:18.239 --> 02:11:22.520
all right, So how did they
finally find it? The plumber came and

1595
02:11:22.560 --> 02:11:28.520
did the plumber find it? He
took out my water heater and cut out

1596
02:11:28.560 --> 02:11:31.600
a piece, so like, okay, I use those things that detect water

1597
02:11:31.680 --> 02:11:33.680
and he cut out the drive.
And how bad was the leak going on

1598
02:11:33.800 --> 02:11:37.359
for a long time or was it
going on just for a short time?

1599
02:11:37.399 --> 02:11:43.119
Did they say? I'm not sure
because the person underneath me, she was

1600
02:11:43.199 --> 02:11:46.680
on vacation to Europe, so they
only saw when somebody down there saw like

1601
02:11:46.840 --> 02:11:52.439
water. Yeah, how long was
she gone? She was gone I think

1602
02:11:52.479 --> 02:11:56.840
for at least a week or more
working. Who's actually coming after you for

1603
02:11:56.880 --> 02:12:01.159
the damage? Is that her insurance
company? Or is it the HOA?

1604
02:12:01.960 --> 02:12:05.359
It is the HOA because like I
said, they paid it. So this

1605
02:12:05.520 --> 02:12:09.279
new guy that I've been talking to
from the new management company, he's like,

1606
02:12:09.399 --> 02:12:11.720
I think you need to get a
lawyer and go after Roqueale. But

1607
02:12:11.800 --> 02:12:18.119
who's Rotael be paid? Who's Rotel? The first management company that they're the

1608
02:12:18.119 --> 02:12:22.359
ones that called out that company?
The okay, now, mitigation or whatever.

1609
02:12:22.439 --> 02:12:26.800
That's their own people. It's their
own people. And I'm looking,

1610
02:12:26.920 --> 02:12:28.159
well, wait, wait, wait
when you say their own people, it's

1611
02:12:28.199 --> 02:12:33.279
just people they deal with. No, I think this new guy from this

1612
02:12:33.359 --> 02:12:37.720
company, he said it is part
of their company. Oh sounds like Electroalsy's

1613
02:12:37.800 --> 02:12:43.640
to me, were if the copper
pipe corrodes. But here's what I need

1614
02:12:43.680 --> 02:12:46.399
to know more than anything, that
damage. You know, it did have

1615
02:12:46.479 --> 02:12:50.359
to be cleaned up. I don't
know if they exaggerated or what was that

1616
02:12:50.439 --> 02:12:56.319
for cleanup and repair or just clean
up, clean up and repair of the

1617
02:12:56.359 --> 02:13:01.680
downstairs unit? Right? Yes,
you also have insurance? Is that correct?

1618
02:13:03.479 --> 02:13:09.399
Yeah? And who's your insurance carrier
State Farm, and State Farm says

1619
02:13:09.399 --> 02:13:15.159
they're not car they're not covering it. They won't because they won't accept the

1620
02:13:15.840 --> 02:13:20.399
invoices that they gave. They want
detailed invoices. I'm looking at what they

1621
02:13:20.600 --> 02:13:26.039
what I sent, and it's not
detailed it just as project manager one hundred

1622
02:13:26.079 --> 02:13:31.560
and fifty eight an hour, five
hundred and fifty dollars, restoration labor okay,

1623
02:13:31.840 --> 02:13:35.600
restoration supervisor all that. I'm looking
at it now, I hadn't looked

1624
02:13:35.600 --> 02:13:39.399
at it before. That's total nine
thousand dollars for managers and labor people to

1625
02:13:39.840 --> 02:13:46.560
come here. Yeah, yeah,
is what they're sound and your State Farm

1626
02:13:46.279 --> 02:13:50.760
says it's not detailed enough. Well
yeah, And then she said she was

1627
02:13:50.840 --> 02:13:52.880
like, she said, I mean
I get that. She's like, why

1628
02:13:52.880 --> 02:13:56.520
weren't we called out immediately? And
I told her, I'm like, because

1629
02:13:56.560 --> 02:14:03.960
I thought it was covered under a
master policy. But you're supposed to cover.

1630
02:14:03.119 --> 02:14:07.800
You're supposed to call with any damage
like that. I mean, even

1631
02:14:07.880 --> 02:14:11.680
if it's not covered, you're supposed
to call hold on, hold on.

1632
02:14:13.840 --> 02:14:16.600
Now, Katchina, I don't know
my notes here said the next time we

1633
02:14:16.640 --> 02:14:22.760
got her on, we were gonna
have compass on, so, uh,

1634
02:14:22.960 --> 02:14:26.359
I need some insurance experts here.
Okay. I don't know if we're going

1635
02:14:26.399 --> 02:14:28.520
to have time to talk to Compass, but see if we can get a

1636
02:14:28.560 --> 02:14:33.560
quick comment from them. And then
I also want to talk to Matt Stanford

1637
02:14:35.119 --> 02:14:39.920
over at and we can't do this
today, but I want to get Paragon

1638
02:14:39.039 --> 02:14:43.760
Services, a public adjuster on to
talk about this. There's a lot of

1639
02:14:43.880 --> 02:14:48.720
avenues I think we can go through
to get her covered. I'm Tom Martine.
