And 23 00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:04.719 I said, oh, I love that. 24 00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:07.159 She said, I listened to you when you said put 25 00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:11.480 the weights in front of your TV instead of sitting 26 00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:15.959 on the couch. Just do some bicep curls, do some squats, 27 00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:20.040 and watch your shows. So I asked my husband to 28 00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:24.480 order me a rack with weights. I said, wonderful, that's 29 00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:25.959 an amazing gift. 30 00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:32.560 You sound almost almost convinced. Look you saw, you know 31 00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:33.680 how that story is going to end. 32 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:35.439 You don't think she's going to use something. 33 00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:38.000 From the way you describe it seems like she will 34 00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:41.159 be fast out the gate for two weeks and those 35 00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:43.040 weights will move from in front of the TV too, 36 00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:43.719 behind the couch. 37 00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:48.439 I would ask your listeners if they have dumbbells in 38 00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:53.319 their home and if their dumbbells get use because I 39 00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:55.280 use my dumbbells at the house. 40 00:01:56.120 --> 00:01:57.560 I don't know about other people. 41 00:01:57.640 --> 00:02:02.680 But I heard somewhere that people let their dumbbells collect dust, 42 00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:03.760 but I don't know. 43 00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:04.439 That for a fact. 44 00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:08.280 I am more for isometric resistance training. I will do 45 00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:11.159 my pushups and core work on the floor, but in 46 00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:13.879 front of the TV, I'll get on the treadmill, and 47 00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:17.840 that's I do the most work. When I'm just watching 48 00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:20.680 a movie, I can watch two hours and get a 49 00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:22.080 pretty decent workout in. 50 00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:25.400 Because basically your treadmill is set up in an area 51 00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:29.240 with your TV correct. So you just get your workout in, 52 00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:30.800 but your mind is on. 53 00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:33.360 I need to take my mind somewhere else. If you 54 00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:36.080 say go downstairs and put it in an hour working out, 55 00:02:36.439 --> 00:02:38.960 I'm not going to do it. Okay, go downstairs. Watch 56 00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:41.599 this new movie on Netflix. It's an hour and forty 57 00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:44.039 five minutes long. But you get at least an hour 58 00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:48.120 in on the treadmill. Do your what I call warmed 59 00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:50.960 up stretches. I try to stretch after I'm warmed up. 60 00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:52.719 That's smart, that's very smart. 61 00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:55.400 In fact, you know, I was kind of giving the 62 00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:59.240 advice of stretching every day, but I was thinking about 63 00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:01.680 it after, you know, giving the advice. 64 00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:03.199 I was like, ooh, let me think about this. 65 00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:07.199 You want to make sure your body's warm when you stretch, right, 66 00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:10.120 and so now with the weather changing, it's a little cooler. 67 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:12.159 You might get out of the bed. It might be 68 00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:14.360 cold in your house, or maybe that's just my house 69 00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:19.759 because I keep a cold house. But you do want 70 00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:22.879 to be somewhat warm when you stretch. You want your 71 00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:25.599 muscles to be malleable when you start moving around like that. 72 00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:26.120 Yeah. 73 00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:29.439 I usually I'll stand and lean against the wall to 74 00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:31.919 stretch out my achilles I'll keep my heel on the 75 00:03:31.960 --> 00:03:33.919 floor because I'm not trying to tear my achilles in 76 00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:34.479 my old age. 77 00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:36.759 I'm just not Have you ever torn your achilles? 78 00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:39.479 No, I've torn my calf muscle, which is close enough. 79 00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:42.319 Yes it is, and there's nothing like it. 80 00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:44.199 How long was the recovery on that. 81 00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:47.199 Month and a half? Yeah, no surgery, month and a half, 82 00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:49.439 natural healing, natural healing, Okay, And it was a month 83 00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:52.120 and a half before I could walk normally again. Wow, 84 00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:53.479 but yeah. 85 00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:55.080 Your body did what your body can do. 86 00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:57.080 But I was thirty something at a time. I don't 87 00:03:57.080 --> 00:03:58.719 know if i'd be able to do that now at 88 00:03:58.759 --> 00:03:59.479 fifty something. 89 00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:03.599 Yes, yeah, Well, anyways, we don't want to find out. 90 00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:05.879 No, but I say that to say that's the only 91 00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:07.800 stretching I do before I get on the treadmill. Those 92 00:04:07.800 --> 00:04:10.039 are important, and I also do some squats so I 93 00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:12.080 can just make sure I'm not doing anything which will 94 00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:15.000 lead to injury. After I get off the treadmill, then 95 00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:17.079 I'll sit down on the floor and do what I 96 00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:19.959 call dynamic stretching, where I'm stretching legs and trying to 97 00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:23.160 increase flexibility. 98 00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:25.680 Right, so you know, I teach a stretch class, and 99 00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:29.800 we also have other mobility and recovery classes. And one 100 00:04:29.839 --> 00:04:33.199 of the best ways to work out your body or 101 00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:35.800 to stretch out your soreness is to use some kind 102 00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:38.839 of tools. So as we start talking about gifts, you know, 103 00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:41.040 it's good to think about these kinds of things too. 104 00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:45.120 I just ordered a box for the Gem of forty 105 00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:46.680 massage sticks. 106 00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:50.160 Have you heard of those? Yes, you have one. 107 00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:53.600 I have one of those battery operated massagers. 108 00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:54.959 Oh like the gun thing, the. 109 00:04:54.920 --> 00:04:59.120 Gun thing, I think it's there a gun And I 110 00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:01.319 wish I would have discover this ten years ago because 111 00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:03.680 I'll get up in the morning after working out the 112 00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:07.079 day before. My my hamstrings are always super tight. Put 113 00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:08.879 that their gun on the back of my leg. It's 114 00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:13.759 like altering. That's a life, my whole life. I can 115 00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:18.839 just feel my hamstring just uncurling. Yes, yes, and so 116 00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:23.319 that would be another gift, right. These are all little tools. 117 00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:26.319 So the Thera gun or for those who are listening, 118 00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:30.839 you would say, it's like a handheld massage device. And 119 00:05:30.879 --> 00:05:33.920 they come in all different brands, but their gun is 120 00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:36.560 an expensive brand by the way, you know, because mo 121 00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:37.879 is bougie. 122 00:05:37.639 --> 00:05:40.560 Yes I am, but I didn't always have one. What 123 00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:43.360 I used before was a rolling pin. 124 00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:46.120 Okay, so that's what I ordered. 125 00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:49.079 So they look like, uh, this is called a massage 126 00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:52.160 stick and they come in all different kinds of sizes 127 00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:55.120 and colors and whatever whatnot. But it's looking like a 128 00:05:55.279 --> 00:05:59.360 rolling pin. And to be honest, I never used one. 129 00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:03.199 So the woman who does the mobility class had asked 130 00:06:03.240 --> 00:06:06.160 for them, and when it came in, I used it. 131 00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:07.639 Life change. 132 00:06:08.120 --> 00:06:11.759 Yes, yes, you don't know until you do it. 133 00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:18.000 It's like what another tool, little secret tool here is 134 00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:22.240 a lacrosse ball, which you may not know is made 135 00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:25.439 of rubber. It looks like a tennis ball, but it's 136 00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:28.959 made of rubber and it grips down onto the floor 137 00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:33.759 pretty pretty easily. You can put your foot on it 138 00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:36.160 and roll the ball back and forth on your foot. 139 00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:39.399 Oh yeah, I usually do that on the corner of steps, 140 00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:44.759 you know, because I, yeah, I don't have flat feet, 141 00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:47.600 but my arches still are something that I'm very concerned with. 142 00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:51.160 And what's the when your when the muscle pulls away 143 00:06:51.199 --> 00:06:54.360 from the foot, is that the planter fa Yeah, And 144 00:06:54.399 --> 00:06:58.040 I've dealt with that over years, and so that, yes, 145 00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:02.160 I will use small balls and corner the steps and all. 146 00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:03.079 These different tools. 147 00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:07.600 Anyways, if you're looking for gifts that are home workout 148 00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:11.959 or home recovery tools, there's so many things out there. 149 00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:15.319 It really just depends on if you're gonna use it 150 00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:19.120 or not, or if you know yourself well enough to know, Hey, 151 00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:22.120 I need to actually go into the gym. I actually 152 00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:24.839 need to go to a class. I need a practitioner 153 00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:29.000 to rub me down. You know, some people need that. 154 00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.920 When we come back. Since we're ending this year and 155 00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:35.680 we're getting ready to start twenty twenty five, I'm quite 156 00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:39.839 sure you've probably seen or know of some trends in 157 00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:43.839 the health and wellness and training community.

It's a new year. I'm quite sure 175 00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:33.840 there are new things that people are experimenting with. What 176 00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:36.480 are people talking about, what's the hot new thing, the 177 00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:37.440 hot thing going on. 178 00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:40.159 There's a few things, and you know, I feel like 179 00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:42.279 they were born out of the pandemic. 180 00:08:42.440 --> 00:08:42.679 Right. 181 00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:45.840 So one of the big things is that there are 182 00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:49.720 more free offerings. Not only do I do a free 183 00:08:49.759 --> 00:08:52.720 workout in the neighborhood, but I also know that there's 184 00:08:52.840 --> 00:08:57.240 free yoga at Kenneth Han Park, there's free hiking groups. 185 00:08:57.639 --> 00:09:02.240 There's a lot of free off rings that I didn't 186 00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:05.320 see as much, let's say, ten years ago when I 187 00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:06.799 started my free workout. 188 00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:07.200 Right. 189 00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:12.399 So the free offerings are something that not only is 190 00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:14.559 near and dear to my heart because I started a 191 00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:18.440 free community work on myself, but also because there are 192 00:09:18.639 --> 00:09:21.919 people who may not be able to afford gym memberships 193 00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:27.080 right or personal trainers, and this is a way for 194 00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:31.279 them to be active, but to also be in community 195 00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:35.399 with other people who want to be active. So for me, 196 00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:40.480 I would say, on trend is this kind of wellness 197 00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:45.759 hashtag fitness, and it's good that it's on trend because 198 00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:50.559 it's causing people to create these groups and these environments 199 00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:52.840 where you can get active with others. 200 00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:54.080 Do you ever. 201 00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:59.200 Find yourself just a little bit cynical where it's like, Okay, 202 00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:01.320 I know you you're not here for the long haul. 203 00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:04.559 I know you're here for the fifteen minutes. And this 204 00:10:04.639 --> 00:10:08.799 is new and the people who maybe walking to the 205 00:10:08.840 --> 00:10:10.879 gym was like, Okay, you're here for the club aspect 206 00:10:10.919 --> 00:10:12.279 that you're not here to work out. 207 00:10:12.360 --> 00:10:14.360 Oh no, don't. 208 00:10:14.519 --> 00:10:18.000 I'm citical. I don't think the best of people. Okay, 209 00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:20.039 here's the deal. The other day I was at the gym. 210 00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:21.879 I was talking to two of my old friends who've 211 00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:24.000 been working out with me for over ten years each, 212 00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:26.919 and they said, oh, here we go again, Claudine. 213 00:10:27.159 --> 00:10:29.639 Look at this ghost town right now. Nobody's in the 214 00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:30.320 gym right now. 215 00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:33.480 In three weeks it's going to be packed from the 216 00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:36.600 window to the wall, and I won't be able to 217 00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:39.279 get a spot in your class, and blah blah blah. 218 00:10:39.279 --> 00:10:40.639 And I looked at them and I said, you know 219 00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:42.679 what I'm going to say, Because they've been working out 220 00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:46.039 with me for a long time. This is my favorite 221 00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:53.000 time of year. I absolutely love when droves of people 222 00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:59.480 recommit to living a healthy lifestyle because I strongly believe 223 00:10:59.679 --> 00:11:02.240 unlike like you, you cynical. 224 00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:05.240 I am cynical, yo estoy cynical. 225 00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:09.720 Yes, I truly believe that there is a percentage of 226 00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:13.879 people who will commit for the long haul, and they'll 227 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:18.320 start on January first or the first Monday in January. 228 00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:22.799 And I just feel so fortunate and so blessed to 229 00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:26.000 be able to have a passenger seat in the ride 230 00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:29.200 along that journey. And I've seen it happen so many 231 00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:31.559 times in the thirty two years that I've been working 232 00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:32.159 in fitness. 233 00:11:32.360 --> 00:11:36.279 In those thirty two years, have you seen an age 234 00:11:36.360 --> 00:11:40.000 demographic shift? Where when I was in my twenties, it 235 00:11:40.039 --> 00:11:43.159 seemed like most of the people were in the twenty 236 00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:48.039 ish range. We were very self absorbed as far as 237 00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:50.919 the gym. Now, it seems like as an outsider because 238 00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:53.120 I'm not a part of that gym culture. Now, it 239 00:11:53.200 --> 00:11:55.960 seems like that people there's a wider age range. 240 00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:58.519 Well, you came to the gym the other day with me, 241 00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:03.000 and you saw the various ages. You saw older people, 242 00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:08.799 you saw young, young people, teenagers. I have been pleasantly 243 00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:17.279 surprised to see such a vast and diverse group of ages, ethnicities, 244 00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:18.320 you know. 245 00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:19.519 Abilities. 246 00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:22.960 So last week I had a guy come to my 247 00:12:23.080 --> 00:12:26.039 stretch class and he is in a wheelchair, so he 248 00:12:26.120 --> 00:12:28.519 put his wheelchair towards the back of the room. He 249 00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:32.039 hoisted himself out of the wheelchair. He used the stretching 250 00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:36.159 tools to stretch his legs. It was well at the 251 00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:38.799 end of class. And I can tell this story because 252 00:12:38.919 --> 00:12:41.679 he told it in class too. So at the end 253 00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:44.200 of class, we always go around and all of us 254 00:12:44.279 --> 00:12:47.480 kind of introduce ourselves, just to create a more strong 255 00:12:47.559 --> 00:12:50.759 sense of community, right, And so we get to him 256 00:12:50.960 --> 00:12:54.519 and he just said, I feel so fortunate and so 257 00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:59.200 blessed to be here because I was shot and I 258 00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:02.279 have been in the wheelchair now since I was twenty 259 00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:05.440 four years old, and I'm just thankful that I'm still 260 00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:08.559 able to participate in classes like this and do as 261 00:13:08.639 --> 00:13:09.399 much as I can. 262 00:13:10.279 --> 00:13:12.039 It's some powerful, powerful statement. 263 00:13:12.759 --> 00:13:15.039 And there's a lot of people who are listening right now, 264 00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:17.360 and I just want to take a moment and bend 265 00:13:17.399 --> 00:13:21.559 your ear. There are people who say I can't do this, 266 00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:27.639 or I'm tired, or you know, my hips hurt or 267 00:13:27.919 --> 00:13:32.200 my back hurts. There's always something that you can do. 268 00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:35.600 If all you can do is a little bit, a 269 00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:40.799 little bit is more than none. And that's my suggestion. 270 00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:44.440 It doesn't have to be well thought out. It doesn't 271 00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:46.759 have to be on the first of the year. It 272 00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:49.159 can be in front of your TV like mo watch 273 00:13:49.240 --> 00:13:52.879 a movie. It can be just stretching with a group 274 00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:57.240 of other people. It can be any amount of movement 275 00:13:57.720 --> 00:13:58.919 is better than no movement. 276 00:13:59.000 --> 00:13:59.879 And I stand on that. 277 00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:07.200 I'm sure you've inspired someone, definitely intrigued many someone's, but 278 00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:11.440 let's help them take that first step. Today's Wednesday. I 279 00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:15.799 know you have online Friday free workouts, you have your 280 00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:20.000 in person free community workouts on Saturday. You teach any 281 00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:23.840 number of classes at Iconics Fitness in Englewood. 282 00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:28.919 I also teach at Equinox in Hawthorn Slash Manhattan Beach. 283 00:14:29.039 --> 00:14:30.320 Excuse me, you've been holding out on me? 284 00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:32.519 Okay, Uh huh, I've been there for ten years. 285 00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:35.759 How is it you have time to come out to KFI? 286 00:14:36.279 --> 00:14:39.159 Because I just love you guys so much.

Come on, guys, 288 00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:44.639 what would you do without me? 289 00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:47.840 Everybody loves the nice exercise lady. 290 00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:50.480 You've grown on me too, Mark. 291 00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:52.519 Like a lord. 292 00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:56.759 Oh not at all, you guys. 293 00:14:56.840 --> 00:14:59.559 I love coming out here, even though tonight the traffic 294 00:14:59.639 --> 00:15:02.080 was ex exdreamly intense, and around this time of year 295 00:15:02.159 --> 00:15:05.360 it does get much harder to get around the city, 296 00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:09.799 so I understand when the population drops down at the gym. 297 00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:11.360 It makes perfect sense to me. 298 00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:18.600 The holidays, traffic, all the responsibilities of parents and teachers 299 00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:20.919 and everything that's going on right now. If you can't 300 00:15:20.960 --> 00:15:23.120 make it to the gym, you can still do a 301 00:15:23.159 --> 00:15:27.080 little something at home, or like most said, you can 302 00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:29.519 go to my website at Clottincooper dot com. 303 00:15:29.799 --> 00:15:31.600 I do teach a virtual workout, but. 304 00:15:31.559 --> 00:15:35.279 I'm sad to say we're gonna say goodbye to the 305 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:36.480 virtual workouts. 306 00:15:36.919 --> 00:15:38.240 I was wondering how long are you going to be 307 00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:41.519 able to do them? Just from a scheduling standpoint, it's. 308 00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:46.120 Been four it's been almost five years since twenty twenty 309 00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:50.960 since I started the free workouts online, and the community 310 00:15:51.120 --> 00:15:56.720 has been so appreciative. But we've dwindled down in size. 311 00:15:57.240 --> 00:15:58.799 People are going back to the gym. 312 00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:01.000 Well that's okay. They can find you at the gym. 313 00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:03.759 They can find you at Hollywood. 314 00:16:03.320 --> 00:16:07.440 Park, absolutely Hollywood Park retail district every Saturday at nine am, 315 00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:13.279 and then at various gyms.

Yeah, we were the beginning 337 00:17:28.839 --> 00:17:31.559 Gen xers. We were the beginning of the video game revolution. 338 00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:37.240 We had arcades, but everything that we had was very 339 00:17:37.359 --> 00:17:41.880 low tech in comparison to what's out there today. I 340 00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:44.759 remember I was happy to just get a phone in 341 00:17:44.839 --> 00:17:51.720 my room, as in, plugged into the wall, touch tone, 342 00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:54.440 not even my own line, just my own extension where 343 00:17:54.440 --> 00:17:57.240 I could pick up the phone in the house in 344 00:17:57.279 --> 00:17:57.799 my room. 345 00:17:58.559 --> 00:17:59.519 I was happy about that. 346 00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:02.680 Now the kids get their own phone with their own 347 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:07.200 phone number at five years old. It's a different world 348 00:18:07.240 --> 00:18:10.160 all together. And I used to ride my bike everywhere. 349 00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:13.079 I am going somewhere with this, no pun intended. I 350 00:18:13.160 --> 00:18:15.079 used to ride my bike everywhere. I had a yellow 351 00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:19.440 ten speed bike and that was my transportation. I would 352 00:18:19.519 --> 00:18:22.920 ride it from Harbor City to Torrents and all areas 353 00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:25.480 around there. I was getting a lot of miles on 354 00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:29.720 that bike. But today have you seen the e bikes? 355 00:18:31.079 --> 00:18:36.200 They're fast as hell. It's basically a moped that people 356 00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:40.440 ride on the sidewalks. It's basically a moped. And they're 357 00:18:40.480 --> 00:18:44.519 not super expensive when you think about it. The top 358 00:18:44.519 --> 00:18:46.599 of the line is two thousand dollars. You can get 359 00:18:46.599 --> 00:18:48.839 them as low as like two hundred dollars. 360 00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:52.599 It's great. Let me tell you about this. 361 00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:56.079 There's a new voucher program which offers up to two 362 00:18:56.119 --> 00:19:01.559 thousand dollars for a new e bike. You can get 363 00:19:01.599 --> 00:19:07.319 two thousand dollars immediately, well, I should say starting later 364 00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:11.720 this month December eighteenth and low income California residents can 365 00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:15.640 apply for the state's new e Bike Incentive project. The 366 00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:19.759 base incentive voucher is seventeen hundred and fifty dollars, but 367 00:19:19.839 --> 00:19:22.960 applicants with certain qualifications can get as much as two 368 00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:29.440 thousand dollars, which basically means for free, basically a top 369 00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:33.640 quality E bike. I would look if I had a 370 00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:36.799 job which was somewhat close to where I live, like 371 00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:40.079 Tim Conway Jr. I would love to ride by bike 372 00:19:40.119 --> 00:19:42.599 to work. I would love to do it, and even 373 00:19:42.680 --> 00:19:46.799 be even better on an e bike. These young folks 374 00:19:46.839 --> 00:19:50.519 have no idea how good they have it. Applications open 375 00:19:50.559 --> 00:19:53.440 on December eighteenth at six pm, and they'll be reviewed 376 00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:55.799 on a first come, first serve basis, even if you're 377 00:19:55.839 --> 00:19:58.559 not going to be part of the program, the voucher program. 378 00:19:58.880 --> 00:20:01.000 I just think e bikes would is so very cool. 379 00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:04.400 I just have no need or purpose for them in 380 00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:07.680 my life. I have nowhere to go. There's nowhere for 381 00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:09.880 me to go. Everywhere I need to go, I have 382 00:20:09.960 --> 00:20:12.039 to get in the car and it takes me two 383 00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:13.279 hours to drive twenty two. 384 00:20:13.119 --> 00:20:14.039 Miles in this city. 385 00:20:14.240 --> 00:20:15.799 I think it'd be fun for you to drive two 386 00:20:15.880 --> 00:20:18.160 hours on an e bike to get to work every day. 387 00:20:18.319 --> 00:20:20.160 It would be fun, and it would be dangerous and 388 00:20:20.200 --> 00:20:21.039 I'd probably get hit. 389 00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:24.359 You wouldn't do it more than once. Look, Stephan, you 390 00:20:24.400 --> 00:20:28.160 know where we lived pool. Oh, odds are against me. 391 00:20:28.319 --> 00:20:31.720 The odds are not my favorite. Yeah, leaving the house, 392 00:20:32.519 --> 00:20:34.279 that right there is already a struggle if you have 393 00:20:34.319 --> 00:20:35.519 something that's shiny like that. 394 00:20:35.640 --> 00:20:37.880 Well, not only that, and you know what this is like. 395 00:20:37.920 --> 00:20:41.000 When you're driving, at least through my neighborhood, people do 396 00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:42.920 not care about the rules of the road. 397 00:20:42.960 --> 00:20:44.160 They will pass you on the right. 398 00:20:44.400 --> 00:20:46.759 Let's say you're coming up you're stopped at a red 399 00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:50.079 light and they're trying to time it where it's gonna 400 00:20:50.119 --> 00:20:52.759 turn green, and they're gonna zip around you on the right, 401 00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:55.000
