It's the Good Day 6 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:25,800 Program? How do you do? I ask? Sometimes? Really, congratulations, 7 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:30,920 Jay's off today, so Jenjen is here to help us celebrate the day. 8 00:00:31,039 --> 00:00:35,520 It is the Wednesday, November ninth program. One more day in November, 9 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:41,840 Jennifer. Jennifer loves it when I am on top of the calendar. 10 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,520 It is so how many days to a Christmas? Actually, we should probably 11 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:50,079 figure that one out. The twenty fifth twenty okay, leave it to you 12 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:54,600 to know that there are twenty seven. So how is the shopping going? 13 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,159 Is? Because you're probably the number one shopper. Let me just tell you. 14 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,600 The mall came to me on Friday and I just pretty much online shopped 15 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:07,079 my heart out. I am now needing credit counseling, but you know what, 16 00:01:07,239 --> 00:01:11,519 most of my shopping is done. I understand the credit counseling thin, 17 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:19,280 that's for sure, But because you are an empowered feminine person, you tend 18 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,120 to know more about a lot. I was thinking about that, what does 19 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:29,159 it mean to be an empowered female? There's a lot of talk about being 20 00:01:29,239 --> 00:01:34,040 empowered these days and more too. I think, doesn't it seem to apply 21 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:41,359 more to women than to men? Wisdom and courage and strength. It seems 22 00:01:41,359 --> 00:01:47,519 to be the era of that being attributed to women more than mental questioned about 23 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,239 I don't know, maybe a week ago. Now it all blends together, 24 00:01:51,959 --> 00:01:55,840 but I was actually questioning the future of feminism or if it even exists anymore, 25 00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:00,040 because you probably saw it, maybe we talked about it. But the 26 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:06,319 thing that like got me and recently is watching all these young girls quote Osama 27 00:02:06,319 --> 00:02:09,080 bin Lan's letter to America. Have you saw that trend on TikTok where these 28 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:14,439 women were reading the letter that Osama bin Lan wrote to the United States about 29 00:02:14,439 --> 00:02:20,080 why he attacked on nine to eleven, And it was a huge thing on 30 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,840 TikTok where all these girls were like, oh, we understand America is bad, 31 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:30,199 Israel is bad, and part of why he said, he well, 32 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,159 but that was part of why Osama Bedlan attacked America is that he didn't like 33 00:02:34,199 --> 00:02:37,319 Western culture, he didn't like America, he didn't like the partnership with Israel. 34 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,960 He hates Israel. And then he also quoted Sharia La in the letter. 35 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:46,120 And you've got these dumb women on TikTok not realizing what they're doing because 36 00:02:46,159 --> 00:02:51,000 they're quoting Sharia lah, which is not supportive of feminism. They don't even 37 00:02:51,039 --> 00:02:53,840 want you to show your face, and they're talking about you know, sam 38 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:59,080 bin Lan said that women need to be home and supporting men and just hosting 39 00:02:59,159 --> 00:03:01,520 people and not doing anything and covering their face. And I thought to myself, 40 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:07,000 where are the feminists right now? Where is Gloria Steinem and Jane Fonda? 41 00:03:07,039 --> 00:03:10,719 When you see women on TI voting yeah, quoting sharia law and not 42 00:03:10,759 --> 00:03:15,680 standing up and saying, under Sharia law, you certainly wouldn't have a TikTok 43 00:03:15,719 --> 00:03:17,400 account, and you wouldn't be showing us your face, and you wouldn't be 44 00:03:17,439 --> 00:03:22,039 allowed to say words because you belong to your husband. I don't know. 45 00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:27,560 I just I wonder because it used to be that we were like empowering women 46 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,639 and now we're a huge amount of people are quoting Sharia law. Like what 47 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,479 weirdness? Yeah, it is weird, bizarre. The best book of the 48 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:42,560 year if you're doing your Jennifers just talking about doing her her Christmas shopping and 49 00:03:42,599 --> 00:03:46,719 she needs credit counseling, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. There 50 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:52,000 is a for those of you who look to consort with those who are smart. 51 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,639 You'll be interested to know what the best book of the year is according 52 00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:00,639 to a number a twelve different but who even knew there bookstores that still existed. 53 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:06,639 But there are twelve bookstores and the managers around the country of these stores 54 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:13,159 were asked to consider what the book of the year was. And the winner 55 00:04:13,319 --> 00:04:19,120 is a book called The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store by James McBride. The 56 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:27,000 Heaven and Earth Grocery Store a passionate story. Well, if I tell you 57 00:04:27,079 --> 00:04:30,920 what the story is about, then that kind of takes away from from the 58 00:04:30,959 --> 00:04:35,959 intrigue, right, So check it out. Listen. I think, remember 59 00:04:36,079 --> 00:04:41,160 I gave you that kindle. How many years ago? Was that the milk? 60 00:04:41,199 --> 00:04:44,560 Actually the Barnes and Noble. I was thinking, it's so funny because 61 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,160 I was actually thinking about that this week, because I still get there's still 62 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,240 a Barnes and Noble in my neighborhood, but you know, so many of 63 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:54,040 them have closed down, and oh yeah, and I got an ad from 64 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,959 them every so often, and I always love to look at their Christmas ads 65 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,279 because that's when they bring out like the biggest books of the year, like 66 00:04:59,319 --> 00:05:00,759 you're talking about, and you know, just kind of to see what was 67 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,759 going on. And I was like, gosh, I wonder if the Nook 68 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,519 is still going because I still have it and my George just haven't downloaded to 69 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,480 it in such a long time. And sure enough, they still have the 70 00:05:10,519 --> 00:05:12,839 Nook in business. But I loved it. I mean, gosh, I 71 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,680 used the heck out of it for a good five or six years. Yeah, 72 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:20,439 yeah, thank you, Handy's surprise because Amazon sort of took over the 73 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:25,920 other weird thing I was thinking about this year, Doug is. And actually, 74 00:05:25,959 --> 00:05:29,360 when I was here for you on Monday with Jay and I were laughing, 75 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,079 she goes, oh, cyber Monday. Can you believe it's only been 76 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,920 around since two thousand and five? And I went, well, that's because 77 00:05:34,399 --> 00:05:38,439 really, internet shopping has only been around since two thousand and five, so 78 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,879 I guess that's where cyber Monday comes from and she goes, wow, really, 79 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,399 and I said, yeah, well, think about when did Amazon start? 80 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,000 So we actually looked it up and Amazon started in nineteen ninety four or 81 00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:51,399 five. I want to say, but do you remember Amazon was only books 82 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:56,120 at that time. It wasn't everything under the sun, and that was its 83 00:05:56,519 --> 00:06:00,120 competition to the books. It was losing so much money. People said, 84 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,199 why the heck are you investing in that? Do you know who the number 85 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:10,879 one investor in Amazon was the number one private investor for all I had fund. 86 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:15,480 Everybody was talking about it, and I don't know who's doing anything about 87 00:06:15,519 --> 00:06:18,920 it. But I remember when Rush Limbaugh and I became friends early on in 88 00:06:18,959 --> 00:06:25,519 our careers. He put money and it ended up that he was the biggest 89 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,480 investor early on. Yeah, in Amazon. So another one of the top 90 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:39,199 ten books this year, Chain Gang All Stars. Now that's got him right. 91 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:46,040 There's another one called Master Slave, Husband, Wife bottoms Up and the 92 00:06:46,079 --> 00:06:53,240 Devil laughs. There's a book called The Beasting by Paul Murray that is And 93 00:06:53,399 --> 00:06:56,839 is this based on reviews or on sales? How does it go? This 94 00:06:56,959 --> 00:07:03,800 is based on sales pretty much. Yeah, it looks to me like the 95 00:07:03,879 --> 00:07:10,360 Chain Gang thing is a pretty absurd book. I like to have simple things 96 00:07:10,399 --> 00:07:13,600 once in a while. I don't read a lot of books because I'm always 97 00:07:13,639 --> 00:07:17,079 reading for things to talk about on the program, so I don't get overwhelmed 98 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:21,639 with the You know, some of the things that are around long form oftentimes 99 00:07:21,959 --> 00:07:27,399 get made into movies anyway, and so I'd rather sort of see it that 100 00:07:27,439 --> 00:07:31,160 way. Well, Roslind Carter was laid to rest her. I guess she 101 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,040 was memorialized. I say today she gets laid to rest. I think, 102 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:39,480 did you watch any did you see her daughter Amy speak about her? I 103 00:07:39,639 --> 00:07:43,560 was actually recording. I was in the studio, so I had it on, 104 00:07:43,639 --> 00:07:45,680 but I didn't have the audio on, which I was sad about. 105 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,639 But I did hear the letter. I read the letter. Actually, the 106 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:55,439 letters read so sweet between Jimmy Carter and can I. This is so silly. 107 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,800 But I've always called her Rosalind Carter as well. That's what my mom 108 00:07:58,839 --> 00:08:01,839 calls her. I had this conversation with my mom yesterday. But I've heard 109 00:08:01,879 --> 00:08:05,839 a lot of people in the media are calling her Rosalind now, which I 110 00:08:05,839 --> 00:08:09,519 guess maybe, Okay, let's talk about something important. No, But I 111 00:08:09,519 --> 00:08:11,720 mean, well, I mean that a kind of his. I just didn't 112 00:08:11,759 --> 00:08:15,879 know because I've always said Rosslyn Carter too, and I just heard you say 113 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,399 that, so right, that's what I've never heard her called rosen. One 114 00:08:20,399 --> 00:08:24,120 of the things that I thought was most distressing or distracting was seeing Jimmy Carter 115 00:08:24,319 --> 00:08:28,759 just kind of laid out like he was on a I know. I just 116 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,080 thought, I mean, yeah, he needed to be there for his wife, 117 00:08:31,679 --> 00:08:37,679 but he just that just that when you see people like that because you 118 00:08:37,759 --> 00:08:43,320 look, probably won't be long, especially because I think he really was waiting 119 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,879 for her. They had a really great love story. And you see this 120 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:52,000 so often, you know, when people stayed together and they stay alive and 121 00:08:52,159 --> 00:08:54,519 there for each other, and they go quickly a lot of times in pairs. 122 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,679 And I'm not wishing that on Jimmy Carker. I hope that he beyond, 123 00:08:58,799 --> 00:09:03,519 but yeah, yeah, I mean I think that would be something that 124 00:09:03,519 --> 00:09:07,440 that makes a whole lot of sense. Actually under the circumstance you see the 125 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:15,000 condition he's in, what's the reason for him being alive. This portion of 126 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,720 the program is a highlight of what's going on in the world of celebrities, 127 00:09:18,759 --> 00:09:22,240 of the gossip, the things that are trending on social media. And one 128 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:26,759 of the things that we were just talking about books, So there's an outrageous 129 00:09:26,799 --> 00:09:33,120 new book that claims that contestants early on to family feud, that is, 130 00:09:33,159 --> 00:09:39,440 when Richard Dawson was hosting it, had to take herpes tests before because they 131 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:46,440 were kissing each other apparently. Yeah, yeah, it's just interesting. He 132 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,320 had he kissed everybody, right, and he did it on the mouth, 133 00:09:50,399 --> 00:09:54,159 So yeah, exactly. Yeah, he was a super spreader. He was 134 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,879 the first. Yeah. I hadn't thought about it that way, but yeah, 135 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,840 probably could be. You could make that argument, all right. Next 136 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,279 up here is a focus on Shannon Doherty, who, apparently gen Jen has 137 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:13,600 a new podcast that will explore her health history, among other things, and 138 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:18,360 her love history and that sort of thing. I just saw this new feature. 139 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,320 I know that she's had a really rough time health wise in her life. 140 00:10:22,159 --> 00:10:26,480 At some early points she was a big smoker and apparently whether that's what 141 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:31,360 caught up to her or whatever it is. But she's got a new book 142 00:10:31,399 --> 00:10:37,480 called Let's Speak Clear About Everything, and so not well the book, I 143 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:41,559 guess she's writing a book, but it's a podcast basically the same thing. 144 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:46,679 Lots of stuff, the inside stuff of her career and her breast cancer and 145 00:10:46,799 --> 00:10:52,360 so what do you remember? She was on Little House on the Prairie, 146 00:10:52,399 --> 00:10:58,360 which I forgot about. Yeah, she talks about what it was like to 147 00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:03,879 work with Michael Lamb on the Little House. I like to work with like 148 00:11:03,879 --> 00:11:07,919 that grimly. I don't know. I was not a big I mean I 149 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:13,200 remember obviously from nine O two two. Yeah, and she was obviously a 150 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:18,399 very strident character on nine O two one O, which I think the reputation 151 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,519 followed her and other other projects she worked on. I think she kind of 152 00:11:22,519 --> 00:11:28,080 had their reputation, well, just the reputation of being kind of em but 153 00:11:28,879 --> 00:11:33,159 I don't know if that was fair. I don't know, because we weren't 154 00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:35,360 there. We don't know if that reputation is fair enough. But she got 155 00:11:35,399 --> 00:11:39,840 really sick and she had I think multiple kinds of cancer and she was not 156 00:11:39,919 --> 00:11:43,320 able to work. And she's been one of the loudest voices about sag Aftra 157 00:11:43,879 --> 00:11:48,720 not offering her health insurance because she didn't work enough. But she couldn't work 158 00:11:48,799 --> 00:11:52,759 enough because she was really sick with cancer and going through chemo and almost died. 159 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,120 I mean really seriously, so I'm glad she's found something that she can 160 00:11:56,159 --> 00:11:58,799 do that will maybe hopefully earn her some money so she can take care of 161 00:11:58,799 --> 00:12:05,200 her self, because she's had a pretty miraculous turnaround, had a tough had 162 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,159 a tough time of it, no question. All right, So that's a 163 00:12:07,159 --> 00:12:09,600 good summary. Thank you. The new podcast, by the way, it 164 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,159 starts next week. I am Robert Strickler. My wife Joyce and I have 165 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:18,080 been married for fifty three years. Certainly one of the really important things in 166 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:24,399 my life are our children and our grandchildren. I am essentially a writer. 167 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:28,919 I've been involved in communications in the media. I've been an avid fly fisherman 168 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,919 for at least forty or more years. I've been taking Previagen on a regular 169 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:39,639 basis for at least eight years. For me, the greatest benefit over the 170 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:45,080 years has been that Previagen seems to help me recall things and also think more 171 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,799 clearly, have a crisper ability to remember and think through things. And I 172 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:56,480 enthusiastically recommend Previgen. It has helped me an awful lot Proviagen Healthier brain, 173 00:12:56,879 --> 00:13:01,519 better life. Robert Strickler is a contributor for Prevagen and real user. Based 174 00:13:01,519 --> 00:13:05,720 on a clinical study of subgroups of individuals who are cognitively normal or mildly impaired. 175 00:13:05,759 --> 00:13:09,639 This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent 176 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,240 any disease. It's a powerful day. It's an inspiring day. It's a 177 00:13:13,279 --> 00:13:18,639 delightful day. It's a hopeful day, it's joy fire, all kinds of 178 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:24,240 words that I could use to describe the day. Think about what you can 179 00:13:24,279 --> 00:13:28,519 do, what the potential is, what the possibility is with today, and 180 00:13:28,519 --> 00:13:31,919 what you could do. Who who knows. Maybe you can be elected to 181 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:37,480 Congress and support the United States. I shouldn't chuck because being a member of 182 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,159 if I were a member of CARS, I thought about running once. When 183 00:13:39,159 --> 00:13:45,360 I was doing the radio program in Florida, there was a fellow who had 184 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,480 retired or I've forgotten what the story was, the go I don't remember his 185 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,960 name, but people came to me and say, hey, you should run 186 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:56,200 for Congress. And I actually almost I almost did. I was thinking i'd 187 00:13:56,200 --> 00:14:01,480 do at the time, was before I started doing this program in nineteen eighty 188 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:09,279 eight, and so I was doing mornings on WPGPBR and apparently some people like 189 00:14:09,399 --> 00:14:13,919 me and this, yeah, you should run for Congress, and I thought 190 00:14:13,919 --> 00:14:18,159 to myself, can I do the radio program from from Congress? Why couldn't 191 00:14:18,159 --> 00:14:22,039 I? Why couldn't you do a radio program? You couldn't do it while 192 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:26,639 you were running? Right? You got in? Yeah. You know who 193 00:14:26,639 --> 00:14:31,600 I think would be a good host, honestly, is Marjorie Taylor Green. 194 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:37,360 I think she on the radio now. You interviewed her. I actually, 195 00:14:37,399 --> 00:14:39,480 after you told me that you'd interviewed her, I got the info. I 196 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:43,919 don't know what Jay did. I told you this. We don't do the 197 00:14:43,919 --> 00:14:46,960 same kind of a morning program here that you do when you're on later on 198 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:52,600 on Carola. But she's a character and she's interesting, and you said you 199 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,600 like talking to her on the air is a good due. Yeah, I 200 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,279 feel like, you know, there's a lot of people who you wonder if 201 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,360 they're really you get the most attention if they're real or not, or if 202 00:15:01,399 --> 00:15:05,279 they're looking for microphones. I actually got the sense that she was really real, 203 00:15:05,399 --> 00:15:07,559 that she really didn't have to leave her life behind, but that she 204 00:15:07,679 --> 00:15:11,720 wanted to, and that she really believes what she's saying. And you know, 205 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,879 it's I likened it to Bernie Sanders. I don't like ninety nine point 206 00:15:16,919 --> 00:15:20,559 nine percent of what Bernie Sanders says. But I don't dislike Bernie Sanders because 207 00:15:20,559 --> 00:15:24,039 I actually believe he's legit, even though I think he can be a whack 208 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:28,559 a doodle sometimes. And he honeymooned in Russia. I think he's actually legit, 209 00:15:28,879 --> 00:15:35,840 you know, honeymoon in Russia? Yes, e yes, God right? 210 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,639 So anyway, but the conversation, she has a book, right, 211 00:15:39,679 --> 00:15:45,200 doesn't Marjorie before she does a Brandon book? Yep? And what is the 212 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:46,840 thrust of it is politics? Is it her life? Well, it's kind 213 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,679 of about leaving her life to go to Congress. Basically why she made those 214 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,360 decisions. What she's been her husband and her children behind in the dust. 215 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:58,159 Oh stop it. I don't know if it goes into that. I didn't 216 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:02,200 ask her about that. Now. I might ask her about that if she 217 00:16:02,279 --> 00:16:04,720 comes on. But she did. She got divorced. There are some rumors 218 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,120 about her and some of her twists and that sort of thing. What I 219 00:16:08,159 --> 00:16:11,000 was curious about though, is her I've seen some pictures of her, I 220 00:16:11,039 --> 00:16:14,879 think with about an eighteen year old son. Is that right? She got 221 00:16:14,879 --> 00:16:18,519 to I don't really know how. Yeah, I don't know much about her 222 00:16:18,519 --> 00:16:21,200 private life. I didn't even you're the one that told me she was divorced. 223 00:16:21,799 --> 00:16:23,799 I think it's interesting because she doesn't make it much of the spotlight. 224 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,840 I think when she's doing it, no, but I'm sure there are a 225 00:16:27,879 --> 00:16:33,840 lot of people that want to go after her for whatever reason. So apparently 226 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:41,000 a sidebar here is that she doesn't get as much time and temperature as she 227 00:16:41,159 --> 00:16:45,720 used to because she was a pal of McCarthy's and the new speaker is not 228 00:16:45,799 --> 00:16:49,559 a fan, So she's not faring as well, at least if you believe 229 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:55,879 some of the accounts of what's going on and who's gaining favor with mister Johnson 230 00:16:55,960 --> 00:17:00,320 and who is not gaining favor with mister Johnson. What do you make him 231 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,039 at this point. You're pretty good at observing that stuff. I don't want 232 00:17:04,039 --> 00:17:07,640 to answer my own question. I am interested in talking about him for a 233 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,599 minute, but I'm more interested in hearing you because you're kind of tuned into 234 00:17:11,599 --> 00:17:15,799 that. I've told you I really like the guy. I think that I 235 00:17:15,839 --> 00:17:19,440 don't when he first Yeah, I think he's solid. I don't think he's 236 00:17:19,519 --> 00:17:23,680 flashy like some of the others. They like to use the cameras as negotiating 237 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:29,079 points. I don't get that from him. And the proof of that it's 238 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:32,400 not just me saying, oh I love the guy, is that. I 239 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,519 mean, look, the government was supposed to shut down again Kevin McCarthy when 240 00:17:34,519 --> 00:17:37,839 he was Speaker of the House. It was always a very public battle, 241 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,400 right It was the Democrats are going to do this, or Republicans are going 242 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:45,240 to do this. The conservative branch of the Republican Party is going to do 243 00:17:45,319 --> 00:17:48,160 this. I mean with Mike Johnson, not everybody loved it, but everybody 244 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:52,839 came together and voted on it to keep the government going. And so that 245 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,480 to me tells me that whatever style he's working is good. I love the 246 00:17:56,519 --> 00:18:00,839 fact that he wants single bills instead of jumping out thing together. I can't 247 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,720 stand that because we get so many things that we don't want. That's how 248 00:18:04,759 --> 00:18:08,599 politicians get corrupt is by promising things and then you know, putting it into 249 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:14,880 these multi tiered omnibills. So I like what I've seen so far. Now 250 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,400 we'll see what happens at the end of the year, and you know what 251 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,599 the the next battle will be about funding Israel Ukraine. They're looking at border 252 00:18:22,599 --> 00:18:26,680 security because there's a big train with all those people on top of it coming 253 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,759 into the country. I don't know if you've seen that image, but all 254 00:18:29,799 --> 00:18:34,160 the people on top of a freight train coming into the country, coming into 255 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:41,480 Eagle Past, Texas from Mexico, sitting on freight train. We train, 256 00:18:41,759 --> 00:18:45,680 Well, it's a freight train, okays. But the thing is doesn't make 257 00:18:45,799 --> 00:18:51,519 sense. You had someone whether it was Biden or Mayorcis or whoever, come 258 00:18:51,599 --> 00:18:55,039 out and say, Mexico, you need to stop that train. That's not 259 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,160 safe number one. I mean, forget, It's just would you imagine, 260 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,279 like what we do in this country, if people were riding on top of 261 00:19:02,319 --> 00:19:04,960 a freight train, the thing would be stopped. It be a James Bond 262 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:12,039 movie. That's fair. Train riders, no way, unbelievable. Yeah, 263 00:19:12,519 --> 00:19:18,920 the there's a rumor floating around because George Bush did not show up. I 264 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,119 said before the funeral it would be interesting. It was going to be fun 265 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,200 because all of the former presidents and their wives were supposed to show up at 266 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:30,480 the funeral of Roslynd Carter. And yeah, I was reading the list on 267 00:19:30,759 --> 00:19:34,160 from CNN and neither George or Laura were on the list, and I thought 268 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,359 that was really weird because they're the ones that, like Bill Clinton, always 269 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:41,640 shows up at these things, right, yeah, right, But Laura was 270 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,279 there, so that was maybe a surprise at the end, But George wasn't 271 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:51,799 yep, and Michelle Obama was there. The scuttle butt was whether it's true 272 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:56,119 or not. It's certainly another one of these social media rumors that Barack Obama 273 00:19:56,160 --> 00:20:02,119 didn't want to be seen with Joe Biden because Biden and he have a riff 274 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,960 going on on a number of levels where they don't agree. I can't imagine 275 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:11,240 that that's that. I think that Obama stayed back in Washington, d C. 276 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:15,359 To continue running the country while Joe Biden took the plane to then. 277 00:20:15,519 --> 00:20:18,880 I mean, I don't think that there's a riff. In fact, all 278 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:23,319 of them flew on the same plane. So Bill and Hillary, Michelle Obama, 279 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:29,119 Jill and Joe Biden all flew on Air Force one down to Atlanta for 280 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:34,400 the services yesterday. And so now the scuttle but I see in conservative spheres 281 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,599 of social media is that they think something's up, that that this is going 282 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:44,079 to be you know, more evidence that gas Schelle Obama for president, Yay, 283 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,720 Gavin Newsom or maybe Michelle somebody, somebody else but Biden. But we'll 284 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,599 see, yeah, all right. In Michigan, police arrested a twelve year 285 00:20:52,599 --> 00:20:57,720 old boy after he drove away in a forklift. Oh, twelve year old 286 00:20:57,799 --> 00:21:03,119 boy and she decided he would steal a forklift and took the police on. 287 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,680 This kid's a student at a middle school and he just decided, Hey, 288 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:11,759 this looks like fun. So he jumped on the forklift and drove it out 289 00:21:11,799 --> 00:21:18,079 onto the street and drove through the city and the police gave chase and the 290 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:22,799 kid headed up to twenty four miles an hour. If you have got on 291 00:21:22,839 --> 00:21:26,200 a forklift at twenty four miles an hour, good god. Oh he was 292 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,880 a twelve year old boy from Anne Arbor. He was taken into cuss So 293 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,160 what do you do with somebody like that. Well, they give him a 294 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,319 good scare, I know, But he needs to get a good scare, 295 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,279 because you can't have twelve year olds who know better jumping on a forklift and 296 00:21:41,319 --> 00:21:45,839 taking what they want to take. Well, no, I think you need 297 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:52,599 to scare all children these days. Okay, Jennifer's parenting techniques here, Just 298 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:59,359 give them scare like the rest of us. We're in the shopping spree. 299 00:21:59,599 --> 00:22:03,359 Time of things is apparently we're in the middle of a shoplifting wave. A 300 00:22:03,519 --> 00:22:08,880 Target has some other retail stores as well. There is this season the most 301 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:14,599 widespread theft that they've ever experienced. Now, I don't know whether the news 302 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:21,160 is amplifying the story and social media is amplifying the story, but there's been 303 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:26,240 a lot of things posted on videos of thieves looting all of these stores. 304 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:33,039 Shoplifting galore. Now New York City and Los Angeles are cited, But isn't 305 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:38,680 it true in both of these cities is not really heavy punishment for he can 306 00:22:38,799 --> 00:22:42,039 go in and steal and you'll be out the same day. There's nine hundred 307 00:22:42,079 --> 00:22:45,720 dollars an under is just a misdemeanor, it's not even a felony, and 308 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,480 there's no punishment. And it's smash and grab now, So people in the 309 00:22:49,519 --> 00:22:52,920 middle of the day will go into a Nordstrum or Amaze's or any store, 310 00:22:53,519 --> 00:22:57,279 smash everything, take everything in a mob like twenty people deep, and take 311 00:22:57,319 --> 00:23:03,480 off. It's scary. There's a I'm looking at a shoplifting report published by 312 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:11,359 a Council on Criminal Justice, and it says that shoplifting from twenty twenty two 313 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:15,400 to twenty twenty three is up twenty about twenty one percent. Looks like here, 314 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,960 yeah, and I think that's yeah. So it's great business time for 315 00:23:19,079 --> 00:23:22,920 Caldron. I would think the phones would be ringing off the hook and people 316 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:26,079 would be ordering nauseum. That's right. You know. It'd be twenty five 317 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:33,119 years this April, and we've been helping customers lose weight safely and effectively for 318 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,200 twenty five years.

Here one of the great Calatrinc. 328 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,599 Consultants at top loss dot com. At this time, we kind of 329 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,519 dig around into the trending stories and what's going on in technology if we have 330 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:27,400 something, and I thought this was an interest in consequence Jennifer, the focus 331 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:34,519 on ransomware attacks. Apparently there's a healthcare chain that operates thirty hospitals in six 332 00:24:34,599 --> 00:24:44,000 different states, and someone is hacked into the emergency room centers in these hospitals 333 00:24:44,279 --> 00:24:49,039 and they've had to divert patients from one of the hospital well, from hospitals 334 00:24:49,039 --> 00:24:56,279 that they own, to hospitals that they don't own. Ardent Health Service says 335 00:24:56,319 --> 00:25:04,279 the attack took the network offline, suspended user access to their it, and 336 00:25:04,319 --> 00:25:10,799 they aren't really able to figure out whether it was a financial thing or they 337 00:25:10,839 --> 00:25:15,559 don't know. They brought in law enforcement. This is a whole new area 338 00:25:15,599 --> 00:25:18,720 of law enforcement, and I wonder how I should have asked that of the 339 00:25:18,759 --> 00:25:22,200 gentleman we had from Evansville, Indiana, or was a police officer there, 340 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:32,440 whether they're getting into whether stations and police forces that size are getting into cyber 341 00:25:32,559 --> 00:25:37,119 crime, and whether they are able to look and this is a serious thing. 342 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,000 But as I said, it wasn't just one hospital, it was thirty 343 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:45,880 that belonged to this particular chain. So what kind of havoc can that? 344 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:51,359 I mean, imagine, let's say it's a holiday, Right's Christmas, and 345 00:25:51,519 --> 00:25:56,759 somebody you know, they're on a skeleton staff anyway, and someone decides to 346 00:25:56,759 --> 00:26:03,160 be a wise guy and they attack the website or they attack the inner core 347 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:08,000 of how they operate this health system, and who knows what they could do, 348 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,960 and they could stop all the technology that operates off computers. Right, 349 00:26:12,319 --> 00:26:18,240 somebody's on life support systems and some guy you know hacks in and decides, 350 00:26:18,279 --> 00:26:22,519 Okay, we're gonna shut everything down. That's really pretty bizarre, frankly, 351 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:30,079 Right, And you've got somebody who's close to either works for Kaiser and what 352 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:34,720 kind of things are they encountering in terms of cybersecurity issue? I think that's 353 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,039 what he does, isn't that Doesn't he deal with the computers stuff? I 354 00:26:38,079 --> 00:26:45,920 thought he didn't know more about customer care and you know, the people basically 355 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,920 making sure that no one goes, you know, takes it to the next 356 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,440 step to if they're unhappy, so kind of a customer care thing. But 357 00:26:52,519 --> 00:26:59,359 I think there's I haven't heard of any breaches, but certainly medical stuff. 358 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:03,440 I think is one of the biggest reason I was listening yesterday to one of 359 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:04,960 those and so silly, but you know, we all listen to them because 360 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,519 we're all radio fans here. If you're listening to this program on radio, 361 00:27:07,559 --> 00:27:11,480 you know, and they have the little one minute features where they give you 362 00:27:11,559 --> 00:27:14,519 updates about things that are coming. And one of the things that I thought 363 00:27:14,519 --> 00:27:17,400 was so funny to listen to, just on a personal level, is that 364 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:21,039 there's a new and I think it's something with the iPhone, something new that 365 00:27:21,079 --> 00:27:25,000 you can do with your phone where you can transfer the stuff that you're seeing 366 00:27:25,079 --> 00:27:30,119 on your device to someone else's device who's near you. And so I was 367 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,240 thinking to myself, I'm like, well, that's convenient. I guess if 368 00:27:33,279 --> 00:27:36,640 you want to share pictures, people use air drop all the time, but 369 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:41,480 this would share everything, your personal details, your information. Like it's this 370 00:27:41,559 --> 00:27:45,599 new feature, and so I thought, give some crook five seconds to try 371 00:27:45,599 --> 00:27:48,599 to figure out how to crack that feature. And it says and the guy 372 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,839 was even saying, oh, it's extra safe and the user has to approve 373 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,240 the transfer of like I thought, I don't know, I mean that's how 374 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,640 the new that's how the new iPhone is set up. I had to get 375 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:03,000 a new phone, yeah, probably what three weeks ago, four weeks ago 376 00:28:03,039 --> 00:28:07,400 because I wasn't getting I wasn't able to open text messages on my phone, 377 00:28:07,559 --> 00:28:11,519 which is a problem because everybody texts. So when I got the new phone, 378 00:28:11,599 --> 00:28:14,799 all you have to do to download the stuff from your old phone is 379 00:28:14,839 --> 00:28:18,839 have it sitting next to you on the device. Yeah, so it transfers 380 00:28:18,839 --> 00:28:22,240 because it's the proximity, and it's like that's got to be able to be 381 00:28:22,319 --> 00:28:29,000 used for evil instead of just good hm, Doctor Evil. There you go. 382 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:33,880 It is Merry Christmas from Doctor Evil.
