The deck Stephen Good Day download with Doug and Jay Kirshner is made possible in
part by Kellatrin, which is the safe way for you to lose weight and
keep it off, and also by privigent keeping your brain healthy. Always know,
whether you believe it or not, I guess this is my belief.
The universe works in perfect order. You are born perfect things are the way
they are supposed to be. Whether you like the way they are, that's
something different. But I don't think that people are ever given. I learned
this actually in a couple of tough situations. You are never given more than
you can handle. Sometimes you feel like there's too much, Sometimes you feel
overwhelmed. Sometimes it feels like somebody what remember the old song was everybody always
picking on me? But the opposite actually is true. You are only given
what you can handle. So if you have a difficult situation today, you'll
look at it, perhaps as an opportunity to be your best self. Right,
you have skills, you have knowledge, you have energy, You can
rise to the occasion. So my suggestion is that you do what I do
often, and that's take a deep breath, and as you do, you
can remind yourself that the universe works in perfect order, and therefore you can
get everything done that you need to get done. Today. It's exhausting sometimes,
so now that you've taken that deep breath, perhaps you can exhale and
release all the things that you have absolutely no control over. And that's why
sometimes why I get exasperated with the murder in Mayhem and the attention that's paid
to it, because it's like something thing you can do something about, apparently
it is, and because it continues, as exemplified by the situation up in
Maine. Two let's see where there are two people. A guy killed his
parents, and actually there were two other people involved in this, so there
were four all together, parents and their friends at a home in Bowden,
Maine. We were talking about this because the details were coming in a little
bit yesterday. But it turns out this guy just been released from jail.
His mother picked him up from jail, and he was angry at them,
and the other people just seemed to be in the way. So that was
the end of all four of them. So is there a reason for it
there? Somebody will try to say it had something to do with his experiences
in jail, or some people may say that he blamed his parents, as
there is always the blame game that gets played in these circumstances. But under
the circumstances, there really is no good reason. So I go back to
what I just started with the fact that sometimes this stuff makes you feel overwhelmed
because it seems what why, You don't understand why. And I'm not suggesting
to you that I that I'm telling you that it's perfect. But whatever happened
happened for a reason that we can't explain. You can't find really. Joseph
Eaton was just released from the correctional facility in Maine, served a sentence for
aggravated assault. His mother picked him up, brought him home. He was
going to stay with these people, the neighbors and the friends, and then
that was the end of them. This is in Yarmouth. This is near
Bowden A. Yarmouth is a town. Actually, the lady who's the person
that we have on the American Family Farmer this week, came from that same
town. She's a fisherman. Has nothing to do with the story except that's
what the area is all about. They're all is a very agricultural and a
very sea oriented community and Also it's become a fabulous place for people who have
money from Boston that want to go and have a place on the coast.
That's the kind of place that it is. So anyway, those things,
it's one of those places where it's just that mentality of this just doesn't happen
here. No, yeah, no, that's right. You know, that's
excellent thinking on your part. That is the kind of thinking that goes with
most everybody in these down main communities. They don't see this as something that
would happen there. It would happen somewhere else, but it wouldn't happen there.
So anyway, and then there's this pregnant woman that went into the Walgreens.
She was shot by one of the workers who claims to have chased her
into a lot following shoplifting. So now it's okay with the well, I
don't know, did this person feel like they were being challenged? Hardly?
If the woman who was shoplifting, okay, that's something you call the police
and you you you put her in a closet and locker there to the police
get there. You don't shoot her. Well, and Walgreen's has a well
known no chase policy. We've seen this in das have gone viral of even
security guards who are set up at different Walgreens locations and they witness somebody's shoplifting
and they even pull out their camera phone to record this person, and they're
like, we can't really do anything about it. It just has to happen.
And Walgreen's isn't the only one, the only company who has a no
chase policy. It's just such nonsense. It is case under investigation. What's
they to investigate? And why did the employee have a gun? Are they
allowed to have guns at Walgreens? Do they have them behind the counter?
Like the old bars and the Old West, when guys came in and started
to shoot things up, the bar keep reached underneath the bar and pulled out
a shotgun and that was the end of that. So is that where we're
going? Is that the to the quote unquote good old days or the personal
carry? Yeah? Right, a personally? What was the what's the thing
that we used yesterday? The personal when you're space is there's a phrase that
I've forgotten that we used yesterday. That was part of the law to shoot
if you feel threatened. But that's not what it's that's not what it's called
at any rate. And there are a bunch of people who were ground the
sand ground thank you. Yep, yep, yep, yep, that's it.
Yep. All right. So let's see what's going on with Southwest Airlines.
A lot of problems there, a lot of problems again this week,
not only the story earlier in the week of them losing control of a lot
of their computer just kind of felt like the same thing that happened what two
three months ago on the holidays when everything was canceled. Yeah, and they've
had under this new leadership, they have the guy that's running it. Man,
they've got nothing but problems. Yeah, And so happened, and they
contacted the FA and we're like, hey, we need to ground all all
of our airplanes. Yep. And there hasn't been really an explanation for that.
I don't think has there been. I haven't seen anything now And I
watched the airline for a few hours. Yeah, I know, but still,
lets it tell you about what's going on there and how safe you feel
getting into a Southwest Airlines seven thirty seven. Now here's another one. This
is a specific Southwest flight. Some of the passengers annoyed by the screams of
a baby on board, not just though from the baby. There was a
grown up throwing a tantrum over the fact that the child was crying, swearing
and yelling, saying they were stuck in the air with his crying baby.
Now, I'll tell you, as a frequent flyer that I get annoyed sometimes.
One of the reasons I like to sit up front is because there's less
chance there's going to be a baby. However, there are times, not
me being arrogant, it's just I don't like it, so if I can
do something about it. It isn't something you what you can't do. Although
we've all had that experience in the plane, or many of us have,
where you'll sit in a seat and there'd be a child behind you and his
foot is up against the back of your seat. They keep pushing and kicking
on it, and I have more than one said something to the parents and
the mother lay at a plunder. You know of those deals. But the
crying thing is different. So this dude took it a whole lot differently,
took it to another level. In fact, he freaked out, and of
course, as we all know today nothing happens without a camera nearby, so
it's all over the places. He's yelling, oh, I paid for this
same Yeah. And even when people were pointing out like dude, settled down,
it's a baby, and he's like, well, the baby's the baby
screaming, They're like, yeah, you're an adult, get it together,
buddy, who is the bigger baby the baby? You're this guy. Clearly
the man the biggest guy, right. Well, And babies they cry in
planes on planes for various reasons, whether the ears are popping, or they're
tired, or they just they don't wander starts going on, and cries are
the only way babies can communicate. There is no other way, tope,
or form for a baby to communicate. And on the flips, I'm not
on the flip side really, and I'm not defending anything, but a lot
of a volts are very triggered for one reason or another when they hear a
baby's cries. And clearly this was extremely triggering for this man, and he
lashed out, Yeah, need to get a life, sir, figure out
whatever it is that is going on with you, because this clearly is you
are. Most people don't like it. Most people get annoyed about it,
but most people realize that when you're at thirty five thousand feet there's not too
much you can do about it, nor, as you just pointed out,
is there anything that we ought to do about it? Because it's a baby.
And he was definitely greeted on landing by police officers escorted out, see
you later, pal, let's see you later. It is social media time.
Check us out. Facebook and Instagram are addressed. There is a good
Day radio show on Twitter, Good Day on Air, And if you feel
like sending how do we send an email to Mark Wahlberg and Mark Walber Good
Day to tell me if you know how? Yeah? How to Mark Zuckerberg?
How do we send an email to him at Meta and tell him what
a boobie is, how terribly he's running Facebook. You and I were talking
about this yesterday. You can't find anything anymore on Facebook. It's not easy,
it's not intuitive. It just is a mess. Well, there's always
they're constantly changing things, so there's so many glitches and a task that should
be very easy, all of a sudden, the option isn't even there and
you just have to wait because you can't hit control delete on Facebook and rebooted
or anything like that. You just have to wait until the bugs fix themselves,
all right, Well maybe that either then, or you get a fly
swatter and you get the bugs that way. The situation with Katie Perry all
over social media, a lot of Facebook and Instagram photos and comments and video
about what happened to Katie Perry. On American Idol, Katy Perry was booed
after she criticized what one of the contestants was wearing twenty six? Well,
there are how many they have? Twenty six now right? Okay, yep.
So this person's name is Nootza Balzarda, I think pronounced she pronounced.
She did a song in a sparkly silver dress, which is kind of a
signature look her thing. She takes the stage with a whole bunch of sparkles,
which Katy Perry is not a stranger to herself. Let's be right,
I would have thought that, right, yeah, So what do you suppose?
And and then again are we making much must this is much ado?
Well? Nothing? So what's just interesting? The audience? Booter, that's
I think? Yeah? And um, Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan had a
lot of fun with it, where when Katy Perry was saying, it's like
she glitter bombs the stage every time she steps on it, and one thing
she would like to see from her next time is that she wears something that
doesn't have a single piece of glitter on it. Of course, audience was
booing and everything, and then Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan had fun with it
where they're like hot Katie got boot and stuff. But Katie Perry has kind
of been under fire for some of the comments she has made to different contestants.
But it's also in the sense of is it because it's Katie Perry making
the comments, or is it are or are they the comments themselves that are
the issue? Because who was it? I'm completely blanking on his name who
was famous for kind of being a Gordon Ramsay of American Idol where Simon cow
that's it, thank you James Simon. Yes, where he was always saying
different things that could be pretty harsh or rude became funny. It was like
to look forward to him. So it was like Trump on the on the
Apprentice, it was the same kind of Steve. You watched it because you
wanted to listen to him say you're a fired or whatever other thing that he
had to say about the contestants. That's what people came to expect much as
anything else. Right, So, actually, yeah, okay, kinda we
need to lighten things up a little bit. And is this all perfectly the
way it's supposed to be. That's what you said at the beginning the hour,
Doug, Well, maybe yes, not maybe, yeah, because there
are lessons to be learned by actions of others. It's nice to be important,
but it's more important to be nice. All Right, the day is
in order. We're talking about things that are in order that we don't like.
It seems to be unusual and why would they be part of the perfection
of the universe. And I'd just bring that to you because I know it's
a thought process that I use. But I can't tell you that I always
understand some of these things that are going on. And if we didn't what
we were going through in the last half hour of Good Day with the Mayhem
and Maine and some of the other stuff. Who's getting shot, who's zooming?
Who? Here's another one, there was a situation in let me think
with this North Carolina. This was six year old girl and her parents injured
by gunfire after a basketball rolled down a street in North Carolina into a man's
yard. And you can guess what the rest of the story is all about.
He comes out with a gun and he shoots him because the actually the
gunman ran up and down the street firing at everybody until his gun ran out
of bullets. This is how crazy people are, absolutely unhinged, right yep.
He was armed and dangerous, according to the police. And apparently they
haven't caught this guy. His name was Robert Singletary. It's only twenty four
The girl, Kinsley White hospitalized after being seriously wounded in the mayhem. Can
you imagine somebody of their basketball rolls down. Let's see, I'd live out
in the middle of nowhere where there's not I don't have any neighbors, so
I don't have to worry about that. But suddenly most people have got neighbors,
and so what would you do? The question here is if somebody in
your neighborhood playing basketball and the basketball rolled into your yard, you're gonna grab
a gun and go shoot them? Yeah? Just is that what you're gonna
do. Let's go and let the kids, let them get their basketball,
like my good. Yeah. And it's at the point where a lot of
people have fenced in yards. What if you're playing something like baseball or tennis
or something where the ball doesn't just roll but actually goes over a fence into
somebody's art It's not like you can just you might not want to just climb
over the field door. But at the time, it's like you can't even
knock on somebody's door to say, hey, my ball's in your backyard.
What's your What are you so angry about? What do you This is a
twenty four year guy. I can see him, I can picture them,
I canna hear them because there's so much anger and what the hell are you
so angry about? So anyway, by the way, this not only young
lady is shot where her father was too. So what do you And so
she said, she woke up from being fixed in she just said, why
did you shoot my dad? And that's yeah, why did you shoot?
Yeah, my dad? And here it is these a white couple, white
kid in. This guy that does the shooting was a black guy. So
you know, that'll start all kinds of stir up all kinds of stuff,
and he ran away to him and found him. Yet I don't think,
thank goodness, okay happening. And it's one of those things of like you,
did you see the story about the two cheerleaders who worked shot after entering
the wrong car. Yeah, I just was looking at that. Go ahead,
tell that story. How many times have many of us done that ourselves
get into the wrong car? Yes, my goodness. So yeah, two
types of cheerleaders were shot. One was left with some critical injuries, still
in the hospital. The other one was grazed in the leg. But it
happened at an HB where that was kind of the car pool location because cheerleaders
had to go to the parking lot. Yeah. Yeah, they had to
go to travel to Austin for where that's where they practice, and so the
car pool and they were just trying to get home at this point and the
one accidentally got into the wrong car. She gets into the driver's seat thinking
it was her car, which I have personally done on more than one occasion.
Then she looks over and she sees this figure in the passenger seat,
immediately knows that's not her car, gets out, runs finds her car where
some of her friends were still in that vehicle, gets in the car,
and then the passenger in that other car gets out and approaches them, and
Shoe starts rolling down her window to apologize profusely. The window is only halfway
down. He just starts shooting in the car. Man taysom, we get
a real problem, a real problem, and so is this a way to
fix these problems? Way too many Americans are out of their minds. I'm
reading something that is supposted again Facebook and Instagram, a good Day radio show
Twitter Good Day on there, Susan says that people are out of their minds,
out of control, filled with so much hate, so much anger.
How many deaths and injuries have to be counted until we decide to do something
about it. If we can't bear to give up our guns, then people
who commit these crimes with guns have to get a life sentence. You know,
maybe there's something to them. Maybe we toughen up, Maybe we toughen
up the rules and regulations instead of these judges that are bunch of nannies and
sissies and don't want to send anybody to jail. Maybe that is I might
subscribe to that myself. I have often said rapists, drug dealers, and
murderers should go to jail. And you throw away the key. You're done,
no matter what your age. You've had your chance at life and you've
squandered it, you've ruined it. And so you go away because we need
you away from society. We need you away from us. You're not fit
to be with law abiding, good decent, gentle people. You aren't.
I don't want to live in a society has all these people in it,
these creeps. Innocent, law abiding people have the right to walk, drive,
shop, work, live without the fear of being shot. Yeah,
make a mistake of getting into the wrong vehicle. How many times have we
been picked up by somebody and we think it's our ride and then all of
a sudden it's like no, Or if you valuate a vehicle, I think
it pulls up around or something. I have myself walks into the wrong,
wrong apartment before, where nowadays like I probably could have gotten shot. But
this was, this happened and at its time when that wasn't even a thought
in my mind, it was just oh, this is the wrong apartment.
I'm so sorry, and you quickly back out of it. Yeah, this
is just this is getting absurd. But also and not just about the punishment,
but to obtain these weapons, I need way where a lot of places
don't have the background checks anymore. There's really no waiting period and there's definitely
no um what's the learning like, there's no educational or classes or anything.
To get a gun. You have to do all of this stuff to take
for your driver's test, to get a license to drive a vehicle, but
you don't need any kind of Here's how to properly use the weapon. Here's
what you should do in these certain situations. Here's the If you belong to
the NRA, you do get that training. If you belong to the NRA,
you do get that training. But not everybody has. Yeah, but
you don't have to belong to the NRA. You have a weapon. Yeah,
yeah, exactly. Okay, enough of this stuff. I've been enough
for more than enough for today. I saw something. This is This is
for the environmental people who think the world is coming to an end, even
though it's not. There have been a lot of people this year, especially
focused on the fate of the ball the eagle, which is the that's the
sort of image that it's the symbol of America is the bald eagle. You
know that, right, So there are a pair of them that have been
nesting in Michigan. They have made this little town, the Shelby Township,
a home for them, and so apparently there's been a lot of attention because
bald eagles are very rare there. Bald eagles have become fairly rare everywhere,
so they want to have a They've welcome them to their community by having a
contest on the local radio station to give them some proper names. So the
Nature Center there is hosting a poll showing and having anybody that wants to vote
select some names. So the one I like the best is Ike and Mami.
Do you know why? Okay, let's have a little Let's let's have
a quiz. Those of you who are my age probably figured it out already.
This is not an age thing necessarily, and I'm not trying. It's
just I don't know if fun is the right word, because people take a
shot at me. When I asked James something to show how much, just
to put into perspective, people think I'm making fun of him because he doesn't
know. Well, no, I'm not, really, but it is fun
to a point, So why maybe, yes, why would that? This
may be up to you too as well. Is that a good name for
the bald eagle? And why would I can maybe be my choice? Um,
well, my first thought is Argentina, So that's definitely not it.
Is this an Eisenhower thing? Yes, it is, it is, yep.
Okay, So what's maybe maybe it was his wife. Oh that's the
wife's name. Okay, I can know that. Yep. There you go.
Yeah, it's not like Turner. My next dike is Eisenhower. Yeah,
or it could be Ikentina. That would be an interesting combo of names
with bald eagles as well. Right, So, if you decide that you
want to try to throw a name into the hat, you got till tomorrow
afternoon to cash your vote, and you go to Burgess Dash Shad Bush b
U r G E s S Dash s h A D b U s H
Nature Center dot org and put your names in and maybe you'll win a swell
prize. What are some of the other names, uh, contest Nathaniel and
Jemima, which probably won't get very far because it goes exactly where you think
where Jemima comes from. Peter and Sarah. Those are Peter and Sarah.
Isn't that there's some royal family reference to Peter and Sarah? Sarah, I
have no idea, Sarah Ferguson. I don't know where Peter would be with
Sarah. Yeah, I don't know anyway. So you've got there, help
yourself, um, and maybe you'll win. Speaking of winning, Helloa,
somebody in California is the winner of a million and a half bucks in lottery
money, but apparently they don't know it. So the California Lottery has made
a national plea. Time's running out to claim this million and a half.
Time will run out next week. It'll been a year. The numbers on
the winning ticket nineteen thirty six thirty seven forty six fifty six doesn't have a
powerball number. It'll expire on the twenty fourth, right, So maybe if
you were in Los Gatehouse in California, you bought this powerball ticket and you
haven't collected to haven't paid attention. This has happened before, where people had
winning tickets and they go claim the money. I feel like we just recently
spoke about this too, where a lot of people if they don't win the
big jackpot. They don't take the time to see what numbers they did match,
to see if they did win anything, period. And that's kind of
one of these situations where it wasn't the big jackpot, but still one point
five million. Come on the ticket. I've got a New York Lauder ticket
from last weekend. I was in New York twenty two thirty one. All
right, I'm looking that up while we have a commercial break. All right,
and if I win, I'll share it with all of you. How
about that? The winners, they're here. I'm Greg. I'm sixty eight
years old. I grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, major in business administration.
I do motivational speaking in addition to substitute teaching. Part of the reasons
for my motivational speaking is um I kind of feel like I have a calling
or giving back to the younger generation. You know, the golden rule is
doing to others you'd have them doing to you. My wife, Wanda,
is a senior flight attendance, has been flying for over thirty years. We
do laugh by the bed. I think most adults will start realizing that they
don't recall things as quickly a say used to, or they don't remember things
as vividly as they once did. I've been taking privilege for about three years.
People say to me periodical, Man, you got a memory like an
alpha. It's really really helped me tremendously provigen healthier brain, better life.

Here we go, boys and girls. As we look at the parent
company Meta meta Meta meta Meta. You say meta, I'll say meda,
You say meta, what is Yeah? Right, Well, they're calling it
off for ten thousand employees, another round of job cuts. They don't These
people just don't get it. The reason that there are a fewer people using
Facebook is because they've screwed it up. Yeah, and so Zuckerberg and his
tribe or screwing around with this. They keep screwing with it. People leave
it. I don't use it anywhere near as much as I used to.
So that's why they don't need all of these people. It's a direct results
you can draw a direct line connect the dots poison girls to the things that
they're doing to screw up. It's like they were suicidal. Okay, I
made all my money. Now I've got five billion dollars, so let's go.
Let's see what we can do to screw this up. Anyway, wonder
because Meta owns Instagram as well. And I know a lot of people who
have used social media professionally and they have ditched Facebook because they have just said
it is not worth it anymore. Their algorithm is trash and like you and
I discuss a lot of times, Doug where they keep changing things like leave
well enough alone. And so then they just decided, you know what,
we're going to only focus on Instagram. But Meta owns Instagram. It is
only a matter of time before and with that too. Yeah right, exactly.
So anyway, Meta stock has gone down like a rock. I think
it's off by two billion dollars or something. So anyway, those of you
who think it's going to change it's going to be better again, I wouldn't
hold my breath. All right, here's something else that has a real stink
to it when it comes to social media. The story again We've spent a
lot of time in Ohio. In this hour, thirteen year old has died
after attempting a benadrill challenge. That's all over ttok. Another reason to screw
the people that are in TikTok. So this is for TikTok users taking large
amounts of benadrill, a contest to see who can get high. Yeah,
what in the world? Where are the parents? This a thirteen year old
kid. Where are the parents? And why does he have? How does
he get benadrill? Can a thirteen year old go into a drug store and
by benagroll? But how many homes have benegril already in it because it's just
it's an allergy medicine and people without even thinking just have bene drill and so
very easy access. The challenge was to take twelve to fourteen, and so
this kid took him in. Apparently they did a brain scan of him right
and his brain was dead. So here's a youngster that enjoyed listening music,
he liked to play games, hanging out with his friends. But you can
see in the obituary what happened to him. They started to go fund me
page to try to help, you know, with expenses and that sort of
thing. Well, what oh, complete waste. A lot of young kids
do not understand the dangers of situations like this. So how many years ago
was it the tide pod challenge where people were ye? Last year was it
was? But people were eating tide pods to see who could handle it,
and and people were getting sick because that kind of those chemicals are not supposed
to be inside the human body. So if TikTok, the people that TikTok
say, well, we are strictly prohibit and remove content that promotes dangerous behavior,
where the hell were you when it came to this, right, I've
never seen this type of content before. Yeah, okay, your job.
They say they have forty thousand safety professionals to work on removing violations of their
guidelines. Well, somebody was really asleep as a switch on this one,
because this thirteen year old kid is d E a d dead Because if TikTok
get rid of it, so it's great business time for Caldron. I would
think the phones would be ringing off the hook and people will be ordering nauseum.

just having the or any time and you record it. Yeah, exactly,
either of those two things. All right, Let's get to a couple of
questions here this. We were talking about vaccines on the Good Day Health Program
and I wanted to ask about a new moderna murk vaccine. It supposedly cuts
skin cancer recurrence. I think earlier in our discussions we were talking about ways
of cutting skin cancer with vitamin D. So what's this all about? Is
this for people who have it already or what do we do with this in
front? Exactly? Great job keeping up this is about. This is such
big hope, but it's not yet ready. This is still in research,
but it's getting close. This was a phase two trial, and it usually
takes to phase three till we're really serious about getting this out to the public.
But this was a very encouraging phase two trial trying to prevent recurrence of
melanoma, this horrible, deadly skin cancer. Because many melanomas are treated effectively
initially, and you think you're over the hump and you're going to be doing
well, and then it comes back. So the risk of recurrence of deadly
skin cancer is reduced by nearly half when patients are treated with an mr ANDA
vaccine. This is the kind of technology that has been used for the COVID
vaccine developed by Moderna and Merk, and the immunotherapy key Truda. This is
the drug that Jimmy Carter has successfully used for his cancer to suppress and get
rid of his brain cancer and live much longer than would have been expected.
So forty four percent of patients who receive the combination therapy reduce the risk of
recurrence compared to those who only receive the MRK developed key Truda is a Phase
two trial, but great hope for those with treated melanoma hoping for no recurrence.
All right, is it true that focusing on pets can help people quit
smoking? I thought that was pretty interesting and that came across my desk.
Having a pet and taking care of a pet, having a pet around can
of help you quit smoking. It seems like a novel approach, but if
it works, hooray, right, Well, if we're going to talk about
pets and health. That's an interesting area and you know, probably will make
put smiles on some people's faces, but you know it might get people maybe
a little bit upset because animals are pets can make us healthy for many reasons,
but they also make us ill for other reasons. So this is an
area. You know, we could be talking about zoosis, which is illnesses
that come from animals to humans. We can spend a lot of time on
it. But for many, many reasons, our pets keep us healthy.
But then there are other reasons that you may want to talk to your veterinarians.
How we what we need to do to protect ourselves so we don't get
illness from our pets. All Right, it's the two way street. In
other words, that's what's Ken saying. All right, check it out eight
five, five, nine, nine, three, six, eight four questions
for doctor Ken. I'm Doug Stephanie the Duck stephan Good Day download with Doug
