<v Speaker 2>Our stuff, which is produced by our friends at College Hype,

13
00:00:43.039 --> 00:00:46.759
<v Speaker 2>is incredibly attractive, trust me, it's really and there's also

14
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:51.600
<v Speaker 2>great quality. There's a there are a great community business

00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:56.520
<v Speaker 2>in Dorchester. They they've been very cooperative and helpful with us.

18
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:09.959
<v Speaker 2>night Side breast Cancer t shirts to mention to make

19
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:13.319
<v Speaker 2>people keep the whole concept and the problem with breast

20
00:01:13.359 --> 00:01:15.159
<v Speaker 2>cancer in the forefront of their minds. But that's for

21
00:01:15.239 --> 00:01:18.040
<v Speaker 2>later on. Now we're going to do our nightside news update.

22
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:20.120
<v Speaker 2>Rob Brooks is back in the control room. No phone

23
00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:22.319
<v Speaker 2>calls until nine o'clock, everybody, I think you know the rule,

24
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:25.439
<v Speaker 2>by all the rules. By now we will talk with

25
00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:30.319
<v Speaker 2>an expert about the long shoreman's strike. I hope it's

26
00:01:30.359 --> 00:01:34.560
<v Speaker 2>okay still to say the International long Showman's Association, because

27
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:37.439
<v Speaker 2>that is indeed what they are called. Apparently has reached

28
00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:39.760
<v Speaker 2>an agreement, but I think the agreement is much more

29
00:01:39.760 --> 00:01:42.879
<v Speaker 2>of like, let's suspend it until June fifteenth. We'll talk

30
00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:46.319
<v Speaker 2>about that, and we'll also talk tonight about the impact

31
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:48.760
<v Speaker 2>of Hurricane Helene. And I don't know how many of

32
00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:50.599
<v Speaker 2>you are listening right now who are down there in

33
00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:52.719
<v Speaker 2>that neck of the woods, if there's even any power.

34
00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:55.200
<v Speaker 2>We're going to talk with the representative of a group

35
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:59.680
<v Speaker 2>called the Massachusetts Task Force One. We have people from

36
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:03.239
<v Speaker 2>mass who sits on the ground urban Search and Rescue team.

37
00:02:03.519 --> 00:02:06.239
<v Speaker 2>Over two hundred and twenty people have died as a

38
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:08.520
<v Speaker 2>result of this storm, and most of those were not

39
00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:11.800
<v Speaker 2>in Florida, but they were in places like Georgia and

40
00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:15.719
<v Speaker 2>North Carolina and some of the communities that were devastated.

41
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:17.360
<v Speaker 2>We'll get to all of that as the evening goes

42
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:19.840
<v Speaker 2>on again. My name's Dan Ram, the host of the show.

<v Speaker 2>from eight until midnighte and we get to talk with

45
00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:26.080
<v Speaker 2>interesting people. We're going to start off with a very

46
00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:29.599
<v Speaker 2>interesting person who I kind of discovered, I think last

47
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:33.360
<v Speaker 2>earlier this year, Kathy Albert. I don't hope you're not

48
00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:37.159
<v Speaker 2>offended by that, Kathy, but Kathy is the president of

49
00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:40.199
<v Speaker 2>the New England Postcard Club. Welcome back, Kathy.

50
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:44.159
<v Speaker 3>How are you all fine? Thanks Dan, Thanks for having me.

51
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:45.039
<v Speaker 3>It's great to be here.

52
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:47.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I think this is this your third or fourth

53
00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:52.319
<v Speaker 2>time with us here And I forget how we met,

54
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.960
<v Speaker 2>whether you sent an email to me or something. But

55
00:02:56.280 --> 00:02:59.639
<v Speaker 2>I never realized the number of people in New England

56
00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:05.400
<v Speaker 2>who were interested in collecting trading postcards. Postcards from hundreds,

57
00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:09.199
<v Speaker 2>not hundreds of years ago, but postcards from decade wild.

58
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:12.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah it is, and you have under there.

59
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:13.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah yeah.

60
00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:16.599
<v Speaker 2>Well let's see, Well postcards were around in what the

61
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:19.120
<v Speaker 2>eighteen nineties, Well.

62
00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:22.000
<v Speaker 3>They started in Europe in the late nineteenth century, but

63
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:24.159
<v Speaker 3>then they came over to the United States and it

64
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:29.840
<v Speaker 3>only cost a penny to send a postcard and they had.

65
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:31.120
<v Speaker 2>Really but you couldn't put them in an envelope, right,

66
00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:33.879
<v Speaker 2>You had to write your little note in the back. Yeah,

67
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:36.879
<v Speaker 2>I have postcards from that era, and I know you

68
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:37.879
<v Speaker 2>make postcards.

69
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:42.439
<v Speaker 3>When they first came out, you couldn't write, You couldn't

70
00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:45.800
<v Speaker 3>write a message on the back of the postcard. The

71
00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:47.719
<v Speaker 3>one side of the postcard was for the address and

72
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:50.280
<v Speaker 3>the other side just to the picture. So people started

73
00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:53.039
<v Speaker 3>scrawling a little messages on the bottom of the picture,

74
00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:55.000
<v Speaker 3>and they eventually realized they're going to have to create

75
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:59.159
<v Speaker 3>a divided postcard and have the message on one side

76
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:03.039
<v Speaker 3>of the the blank side and the dress on the other,

77
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:07.719
<v Speaker 3>so the picture was remained intact and didn't have writing

78
00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:08.280
<v Speaker 3>all over it.

79
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:12.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you represent a group of people who are very

80
00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:16.839
<v Speaker 2>diverse in terms of their collection. Some people collect postcards generally.

81
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:19.920
<v Speaker 2>Some people have sort of sub specialties. They only want

82
00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:23.639
<v Speaker 2>train postcards, or they want postcards about the state of

83
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:26.959
<v Speaker 2>Massachusetts or a town in Massachusetts. Explain how that works.

84
00:04:28.079 --> 00:04:31.000
<v Speaker 3>Well, Actually, the most popular kind of postcard I think

85
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:33.879
<v Speaker 3>for the people that I'm working with right now are

86
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:36.480
<v Speaker 3>they call them view postcards, and they have them for

87
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:40.000
<v Speaker 3>every town. Like, for example, there's one fellow in our

88
00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:43.639
<v Speaker 3>group who lives in Newton and he collects Newton postcards

89
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:46.399
<v Speaker 3>and he has a huge collection of Newton postcards. And

90
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.319
<v Speaker 3>he still hasn't gotten over to the what's the name

91
00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:53.160
<v Speaker 3>of historical society there in Newton where they've got they've

92
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:55.560
<v Speaker 3>got a huge postcard collection over there, I guess.

93
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:59.519
<v Speaker 2>But now and I know that there were people who

94
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:02.480
<v Speaker 2>collect baseball park postcards, which is.

95
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:08.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, baseball player, Yeah. I mean, it's just whatever your interest,

96
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:10.519
<v Speaker 3>there's a postcard for that. But like I said, these

97
00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:13.079
<v Speaker 3>you postcards, people come in and there's a box this

98
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:15.600
<v Speaker 3>is Massachusetts on it, and you can just slip through

99
00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:17.680
<v Speaker 3>it and you can look for your town and you

100
00:05:17.720 --> 00:05:20.639
<v Speaker 3>can find, you know, library at high school the way

101
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:22.560
<v Speaker 3>it looked a hundred years ago. It's really cool.

102
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.839
<v Speaker 2>The other thing that I think is interesting is that

103
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:31.199
<v Speaker 2>this seem there is still postcards sold, uh in circulation.

104
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:33.879
<v Speaker 2>You go into certain stores and you can find postcards.

105
00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:38.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that hotels and motels still make postcards available,

106
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:41.319
<v Speaker 2>but I can remember traveling young when I was younger,

107
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:44.120
<v Speaker 2>there was always a stack of you know, five or

108
00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:47.079
<v Speaker 2>six postcards in the draw of the death hotel, of

109
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:49.319
<v Speaker 2>the motel, and you could send that you could use

110
00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:51.319
<v Speaker 2>that and have to put a stamp on it. Obviously,

111
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:58.439
<v Speaker 2>has has that lost some of its popularity with with

112
00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:01.560
<v Speaker 2>with not only people who are travelers, but people who

113
00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:04.639
<v Speaker 2>provide them lodging and inns and bed and breakfasts and

114
00:06:04.759 --> 00:06:06.160
<v Speaker 2>hotels and hotels.

115
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:08.439
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I think that one of the one of

116
00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:12.360
<v Speaker 3>the things I collect are hotels and motels and restaurants,

117
00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:13.920
<v Speaker 3>and I have a lot of a lot of those

118
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:17.879
<v Speaker 3>from New York City, for example. But yeah, I mean

119
00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:21.759
<v Speaker 3>there are people people collect postcards of hotels the way

120
00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:23.920
<v Speaker 3>they looked one hundred years ago or fifty years ago,

121
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:26.360
<v Speaker 3>and you know, the interior, or some of them have

122
00:06:26.439 --> 00:06:30.199
<v Speaker 3>beautiful murals. There's just there's so many different kinds of postcards,

123
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:31.680
<v Speaker 3>just mind boggling.

124
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:35.720
<v Speaker 2>I hope you find someone who collects postcards of Boston

125
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:38.639
<v Speaker 2>television personalities. I had a lot of postcards that I

126
00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:42.439
<v Speaker 2>nailed serious. Oh oh yeah, we still have them, by

127
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:42.959
<v Speaker 2>the way, I do.

128
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:45.600
<v Speaker 3>I have entertainers and I do have I have you know,

129
00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:50.040
<v Speaker 3>old things from like w W was it w NAC

<v Speaker 3>or was that a TV station?

131
00:06:51.879 --> 00:06:53.800
<v Speaker 2>Well that was a TV it was also a radio

132
00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:55.439
<v Speaker 2>station that would have been sort of in the in

133
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:58.879
<v Speaker 2>the circuit time of circuit nineteen forties and nineteen fifties.

134

00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:58.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I don't know, about five hundred. It's hard to tell.

<v Speaker 3>in March.

193
00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:50.919
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well, this is an ongoing activity and I'd

194
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:53.120
<v Speaker 2>like to think that I was one of the founding

195
00:09:53.159 --> 00:09:54.720
<v Speaker 2>fathers of this group, because.

196
00:09:55.320 --> 00:09:58.960
<v Speaker 3>You absolutely were. You made it happen man. Thank you

197
00:09:59.039 --> 00:09:59.399
<v Speaker 3>so much.

198
00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:02.960
<v Speaker 2>Then please say hi to everybody. I will not be

199
00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:05.440
<v Speaker 2>there on Sunday, but I'll probably be able to stop

200
00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:07.360
<v Speaker 2>buy in March. Okay, we'll talk again. Thanks.

201
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:09.279
<v Speaker 3>Oh, that would be great. We'll look forward to that.

202
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:11.679
<v Speaker 3>Thanks so much. Have a great weekend. Dan, Thank you

<v Speaker 2>Thank you. When we get back, we are going to

205
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:19.159
<v Speaker 2>talk about a very serious issue. Postcards are fun. We're

206
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:22.679
<v Speaker 2>going to talk about domestic Violence Awareness Month and an

207
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:26.039
<v Speaker 2>empowering message for survivors of domestic violence. We'll be speaking

208
00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:30.840
<v Speaker 2>with Laura Frombach. She's a technologist and domestic violence survivors.

209
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:34.159
<v Speaker 2>She's also a co author a book called Street Smart Safety,

210
00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:38.000
<v Speaker 2>Your Guide to Defensive Living. Stay with us a great

211
00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:40.559
<v Speaker 2>guest coming up back on nights Side. This is Boston's

212
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:42.840
<v Speaker 2>news Radio. My name is Dan Ray, host of nights

213
00:10:42.879 --> 00:10:45.639
<v Speaker 2>I'd heard every Monday through Friday night right here on

214
00:10:45.840 --> 00:10:48.679
<v Speaker 2>WBZ ten thirty the Am Dial Boston.

215
00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:52.480
<v Speaker 1>Now back to Dan Ray, live from the Window World

216
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:57.279
<v Speaker 1>night Side Studios on WBZ News Radio.

217
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:02.440
<v Speaker 2>October is domestic Violence Awareness Month, and there are a

218
00:11:02.440 --> 00:11:06.240
<v Speaker 2>lot of causes that are highlighted in various months. It's

219
00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:08.600
<v Speaker 2>not as if it's the only cause. However, I can't

220
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:13.080
<v Speaker 2>think of one that's more important, particularly for anyone who

221
00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:16.080
<v Speaker 2>has a daughter, or a niece, or a mom or

222
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:21.080
<v Speaker 2>an aunt. Empowering message for survivors Laura Frombach. Laura, you

223
00:11:21.120 --> 00:11:24.679
<v Speaker 2>are a domestic violence survivor yourself, and it says that

224
00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:28.799
<v Speaker 2>you're a technologist. I understand what a domestic violence survivor is.

225
00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:30.440
<v Speaker 2>What is a technologist.

226
00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:36.399
<v Speaker 4>A technologist is somebody who is in love with technology,

227
00:11:36.759 --> 00:11:40.519
<v Speaker 4>and I've worked in technology all my career over thirty

228
00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:43.679
<v Speaker 4>years with large company small companies.

229
00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:47.679
<v Speaker 2>Okay, okay, I knew that, but I was wondering if

230
00:11:48.159 --> 00:11:53.279
<v Speaker 2>your work as a technologist had any relationship to the

231
00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:56.159
<v Speaker 2>subject at hand. So you could have said that you

232
00:11:56.159 --> 00:11:59.480
<v Speaker 2>were a lawyer and a domestic violence survivor or whatever.

233
00:11:59.559 --> 00:12:01.519
<v Speaker 2>So now I just wanted to clear that up. You're

234
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:05.120
<v Speaker 2>also the co author of a book called Street Smart Safety,

235
00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:09.559
<v Speaker 2>Your Guide to Defensive Living. Now is that book related

236
00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:13.600
<v Speaker 2>to domestic violence or is it? Is it a basically

237
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:19.320
<v Speaker 2>a book that provides broader recommendations how people, men and

238
00:12:19.399 --> 00:12:20.919
<v Speaker 2>women can remain safe.

239
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:26.320
<v Speaker 4>It does both, Dan. It provides those recommendations that you

240
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:30.159
<v Speaker 4>just talked about, but we also talk about domestic violence

241
00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:34.080
<v Speaker 4>and more importantly, how to recognize the patterns of domestic

242
00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:37.519
<v Speaker 4>violence earlier in the relationship, because it doesn't happen in

243
00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:41.960
<v Speaker 4>a vacuum. There are signs that people everyone can look

244
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:44.679
<v Speaker 4>for if they know what they're looking for while they're dating.

245
00:12:45.080 --> 00:12:47.200
<v Speaker 2>Let's talk about some of those signs. What are the

246
00:12:47.279 --> 00:12:51.480
<v Speaker 2>signs that I guess men and women, but primarily women.

247
00:12:51.559 --> 00:12:53.879
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there are men who suffer from domestic violence

248
00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:57.960
<v Speaker 2>that I don't want to downplay that, you know that problem,

249
00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:02.279
<v Speaker 2>but most men, most victims of domestic violence in our

250
00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:06.039
<v Speaker 2>society are women. I believe these statistics would support that.

251
00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:08.519
<v Speaker 2>So let's talk about it from the point of view

252
00:13:08.600 --> 00:13:11.120
<v Speaker 2>of women. You begin into a dating relationship, what are

253
00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:13.200
<v Speaker 2>some of the warning signs that people should begin to say?

254
00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:18.480
<v Speaker 4>On the first date, even you can start to see

255
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:21.720
<v Speaker 4>some of those signs because domestic violence and abuse is

256
00:13:21.879 --> 00:13:25.639
<v Speaker 4>all about power and control. So if somebody starts to

257
00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:30.240
<v Speaker 4>order for you, if you want to leave, and they say,

258
00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:32.440
<v Speaker 4>well just one more, I mean, how many of us

259
00:13:32.480 --> 00:13:36.879
<v Speaker 4>haven't heard that those are actually signs not only that

260
00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:39.840
<v Speaker 4>somebody might be interested in you, but that they're trying

261
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:44.080
<v Speaker 4>to control you. And when you say oh, okay, you're

262
00:13:44.120 --> 00:13:46.519
<v Speaker 4>showing them that you can actually be controlled.

263
00:13:47.360 --> 00:13:49.480
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So let me play Devil's advocate for a second.

264
00:13:49.559 --> 00:13:51.279
<v Speaker 2>Let's assume a couple of years in a great time,

265
00:13:51.320 --> 00:13:53.200
<v Speaker 2>they really have hit it off. It's a blind date,

266
00:13:53.559 --> 00:13:56.000
<v Speaker 2>first date, they got up through they got set up

267
00:13:56.039 --> 00:14:00.240
<v Speaker 2>to a dating system with through some friends and the

268
00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:02.679
<v Speaker 2>you know, one of them has to work the next morning.

269
00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:05.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm really work early. There they got to They're on

270
00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:07.000
<v Speaker 2>the call at six am in the morning, and the

271
00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:09.279
<v Speaker 2>other person doesn't realize that, Well, let's just have one more.

272
00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:11.919
<v Speaker 2>You know, we're having a good time. Can you distinguish

273
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:15.000
<v Speaker 2>between that sort of g I'm really enjoying your company,

274
00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:18.399
<v Speaker 2>it's only you know, nine thirty. Do we have to

275
00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:23.279
<v Speaker 2>leave that early? Maybe not knowing that the other person

276
00:14:23.919 --> 00:14:26.440
<v Speaker 2>really does, you know, have to be at work at

277
00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:28.559
<v Speaker 2>six am? How do you distinguish that? Right?

278
00:14:29.720 --> 00:14:33.759
<v Speaker 4>You can distinguish it by the fact that one to establish, Hey,

279
00:14:33.919 --> 00:14:36.720
<v Speaker 4>you know what, I am having a great time and

280
00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:39.559
<v Speaker 4>I would stay, but I really have to go. Does

281
00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:42.200
<v Speaker 4>that other person respect that and say, you know what,

282
00:14:42.879 --> 00:14:45.159
<v Speaker 4>I respect that. We can do it again?

283
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:48.320
<v Speaker 2>Makes a lot of sense, makes a lot of sense.

284
00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:51.559
<v Speaker 2>Some other signs should like to share with our audience.

285
00:14:51.679 --> 00:14:53.360
<v Speaker 2>I feel free, go right ahead.

286
00:14:55.879 --> 00:14:58.360
<v Speaker 4>I'm sorry, could you repeat that place I said?

287
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.000
<v Speaker 2>I said other than someone and maybe on the first

288
00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:04.879
<v Speaker 2>daid being I mean, obviously, if someone tries to order

289
00:15:04.919 --> 00:15:06.279
<v Speaker 2>for you in the first aid, if they take you

290
00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:08.039
<v Speaker 2>to a restaurant, and they say, look, believe it or not,

291
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:11.080
<v Speaker 2>this place has the best fill in the blank. Have

292
00:15:11.159 --> 00:15:14.960
<v Speaker 2>you been here before. That's a different approach as opposed

293
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:17.639
<v Speaker 2>to go to a restaurant and say, Okay, I'm going

294
00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:19.679
<v Speaker 2>to order for you. We're you're gonna have a burger

295
00:15:19.720 --> 00:15:22.320
<v Speaker 2>and fries, or you're gonna have spaghetti and meatballs. You know,

296
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:24.759
<v Speaker 2>that's a different, different thing. But if you're somewhere at

297
00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:29.320
<v Speaker 2>a restaurant that the person is trying to be polite.

298
00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:32.720
<v Speaker 2>Give us some other signs that women should see early

299
00:15:32.799 --> 00:15:35.679
<v Speaker 2>on in relationships or even later on in relationships that

300
00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:38.600
<v Speaker 2>maybe people don't pick up on as quickly as they should.

301
00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:44.759
<v Speaker 4>Well. The other identifying factor in domestic abuse and violence

302
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:49.759
<v Speaker 4>is isolation. So does that person try to get you

303
00:15:49.840 --> 00:15:53.559
<v Speaker 4>away from your family and friends to constantly criticize your

304
00:15:53.600 --> 00:15:56.559
<v Speaker 4>family and friends and say, oh, that person's telling you

305
00:15:56.600 --> 00:15:58.879
<v Speaker 4>this or this person doesn't want you to do that,

306
00:15:59.240 --> 00:16:02.440
<v Speaker 4>and try to get you so that they have you

307
00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:06.639
<v Speaker 4>all to themselves, because domestic violence is a situation of isolation,

308
00:16:07.399 --> 00:16:11.480
<v Speaker 4>so that that person is the only person that in

309
00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:16.799
<v Speaker 4>your orbit, really and another sign is financial control. Do

310
00:16:16.919 --> 00:16:19.480
<v Speaker 4>they try to get you to move in with them

311
00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:23.000
<v Speaker 4>and do they try to gain control of your finances

312
00:16:23.320 --> 00:16:27.120
<v Speaker 4>slowly but surely, because sometimes it's quickly, but other times

313
00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:30.360
<v Speaker 4>it's very slowly, so that the woman might not even

314
00:16:30.440 --> 00:16:34.120
<v Speaker 4>recognize that it's happening. But you know, in those cases,

315
00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:38.360
<v Speaker 4>your friends and family can be very very helpful to

316
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:43.120
<v Speaker 4>you and say, you know what, this person, this guy boy,

317
00:16:43.240 --> 00:16:46.799
<v Speaker 4>I hardly ever see you anymore. And you know, in relationships,

318
00:16:46.840 --> 00:16:49.600
<v Speaker 4>it's natural that people want to be together. But when

319
00:16:49.639 --> 00:16:51.840
<v Speaker 4>you want to go out for you know, girls' night

320
00:16:51.879 --> 00:16:54.360
<v Speaker 4>out and he doesn't want you to go out and

321
00:16:54.679 --> 00:16:57.799
<v Speaker 4>you know, threatened you even or or gives you the

322
00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:00.519
<v Speaker 4>silent treatment when you get back, you know, those are

323
00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:01.679
<v Speaker 4>all red flags.

324
00:17:02.960 --> 00:17:06.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's interesting because it's so tough when you're you know,

325
00:17:06.920 --> 00:17:10.720
<v Speaker 2>developing in relationships with someone who who you might be

326
00:17:10.759 --> 00:17:15.799
<v Speaker 2>attracted be attracted to, and sometimes it's tough for anyone.

327
00:17:16.559 --> 00:17:22.079
<v Speaker 2>You know, just just figuring out compatibility is uh is difficult.

328
00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:25.440
<v Speaker 2>It is difficult alone. And then when you have on

329
00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:28.799
<v Speaker 2>top of it, what percentage And I'm sure there's not

330
00:17:28.880 --> 00:17:30.759
<v Speaker 2>a percentage that you can pick out of the air

331
00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:34.920
<v Speaker 2>for us, but what percentage of and we're talking young

332
00:17:34.960 --> 00:17:37.680
<v Speaker 2>men here, people we could be talking out of others,

333
00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:40.839
<v Speaker 2>But you know, men who are active on the dating scene,

334
00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:45.119
<v Speaker 2>what percentage of them do you think are people who

335
00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:48.839
<v Speaker 2>have the potential to inflict or engage in domestic violence?

336
00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:51.559
<v Speaker 2>I mean, amongst the people who I know, I can't

337
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:56.039
<v Speaker 2>think of anyone who who I would have identified as

338
00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:58.640
<v Speaker 2>someone who is like that. A wide variety of personage.

339
00:17:58.799 --> 00:18:00.799
<v Speaker 2>But is there is there a sentges that we can

340
00:18:00.839 --> 00:18:01.599
<v Speaker 2>put on this or no.

341
00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:06.880
<v Speaker 4>I would say first of all that domestic violence and abuse,

342
00:18:06.960 --> 00:18:09.960
<v Speaker 4>first of all, women considered very shameful. If they've been

343
00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:14.359
<v Speaker 4>a victim, I will tell you. And that's interesting that

344
00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:17.920
<v Speaker 4>you just said that, because I know every woman that

345
00:18:18.039 --> 00:18:20.640
<v Speaker 4>I know has been a victim at some point in

346
00:18:20.680 --> 00:18:24.480
<v Speaker 4>their life, and so it's interesting that so many women

347
00:18:25.319 --> 00:18:29.440
<v Speaker 4>know victims. But none of us, myself included, except for

348
00:18:29.559 --> 00:18:34.160
<v Speaker 4>my family, would classify anyone, any guy I know, as

349
00:18:34.200 --> 00:18:37.880
<v Speaker 4>an abuser. So you know, it's a situation that goes

350
00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:41.799
<v Speaker 4>on behind closed doors, and we never really know, you know,

351
00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:44.960
<v Speaker 4>what's behind a happy facade.

352
00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:48.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, I understand that that is true. No one

353
00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:52.039
<v Speaker 2>knows what goes on inside a marriage. Laura, thanks very

354
00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:56.240
<v Speaker 2>much again the book that you wrote, which is interesting

355
00:18:56.400 --> 00:19:00.920
<v Speaker 2>and should be available. The book book. The book the

356
00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:03.880
<v Speaker 2>name of it is street Smart Safety. Is that's been

357
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:04.519
<v Speaker 2>out for a while.

358
00:19:04.599 --> 00:19:09.160
<v Speaker 4>I suspect yes, Street Smart Safety for Women, Your Guide

359
00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:12.920
<v Speaker 4>to Defensive Living is available on Amazon. It's available in

360
00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:15.680
<v Speaker 4>books and Noble, Barnes, and I'm sorry Barnes and Noble

361
00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:17.279
<v Speaker 4>and wherever books are sold.

362
00:19:18.079 --> 00:19:20.720
<v Speaker 2>And I would suspect that it wouldn't be a bad

363
00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:23.119
<v Speaker 2>book for men to buy buy as well, even though

364
00:19:23.160 --> 00:19:26.559
<v Speaker 2>it is entire absolutely smart safety for women. Okay, fair enough,

365
00:19:27.119 --> 00:19:30.440
<v Speaker 2>Laura appreciates you taking the time. And again, I hope

366
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:36.640
<v Speaker 2>that people realize that there's no reason to bully someone

367
00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:40.519
<v Speaker 2>and never any reason to strike for men to strike

368
00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:43.240
<v Speaker 2>a woman, because I think that any guy that is

369
00:19:43.279 --> 00:19:46.519
<v Speaker 2>actually going to strike a woman is at his core

370
00:19:46.599 --> 00:19:50.039
<v Speaker 2>an absolute coward. And I believe that I'm a kind

371
00:19:50.079 --> 00:19:52.599
<v Speaker 2>of old fashioned, but that's what I believe. Thanks, Laura

372
00:19:52.599 --> 00:19:53.440
<v Speaker 2>appreciates your call.

373
00:19:54.400 --> 00:19:56.160
<v Speaker 4>Thanks so much. Dan, having great weekend.

374
00:19:56.519 --> 00:19:58.799
<v Speaker 2>All right, you two, Well we get up. We're going

375
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:01.400
<v Speaker 2>to talk about a very interesting trend that is going

376
00:20:01.480 --> 00:20:05.079
<v Speaker 2>to surprise you about people who are in great shape,

377
00:20:05.279 --> 00:20:10.119
<v Speaker 2>particularly young people who suffer heart attacks. We're going to

378
00:20:10.200 --> 00:20:14.440
<v Speaker 2>talk with a cardiologist about the some of the theories behind this.

379
00:20:15.079 --> 00:20:18.200
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know much about this, but I just

380
00:20:18.359 --> 00:20:22.680
<v Speaker 2>wonder if maybe some people are carrying the ability to

381
00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:26.119
<v Speaker 2>stay in shape and get super fit to the point

382
00:20:26.119 --> 00:20:29.160
<v Speaker 2>that they're actually abusing their heart. We'll talk with doctor

383
00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:32.440
<v Speaker 2>Fammi Fara right after the break and after the news

384
00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:33.920
<v Speaker 2>at the bottom of the air. My name is Dan Ray.

385
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:36.480
<v Speaker 2>It's a Friday night or nightside. We're heading a Saturday morning.

386
00:20:37.799 --> 00:20:42.480
<v Speaker 1>It's Night Side with Dan Ray on Boston's news radio.

387
00:20:43.240 --> 00:20:46.519
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's get right back at it. I'm delighted

388
00:20:46.519 --> 00:20:50.880
<v Speaker 2>to be doing joined by cardiologists doctor Fammi Fara. I

389
00:20:50.920 --> 00:20:53.079
<v Speaker 2>hope I've pronounced your name correctly, Doctor Fara.

390
00:20:54.880 --> 00:20:55.559
<v Speaker 3>It's Sarah.

391
00:20:57.319 --> 00:20:59.400
<v Speaker 2>Okay. If I wasn't close, let me get it right.

392
00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:01.000
<v Speaker 2>What is how's the pronunciation?

393
00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:05.039
<v Speaker 5>It's sector Fammi Farah, Fammi.

394
00:21:04.839 --> 00:21:07.200
<v Speaker 2>Farah okay, fine, okay, I made it a soft a.

395
00:21:07.400 --> 00:21:12.039
<v Speaker 2>It's a fair farah. Okay. You're a cardiologist and a

396
00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:17.240
<v Speaker 2>board certified invasive cardiologist, and there's an alarming rate rise

397
00:21:17.519 --> 00:21:21.920
<v Speaker 2>of super fit swim young people suffering heart attacks as

398
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:25.119
<v Speaker 2>experts prevail theories for the surge. So the question is

399
00:21:25.680 --> 00:21:28.759
<v Speaker 2>When you think about people having heart attacks, as a rule,

400
00:21:29.240 --> 00:21:32.440
<v Speaker 2>you think about older people, and you think about maybe

401
00:21:32.480 --> 00:21:35.200
<v Speaker 2>older people who are carrying around a few too many pounds,

402
00:21:35.240 --> 00:21:38.880
<v Speaker 2>maybe in over people who are obviously overweight. The opposite

403
00:21:38.920 --> 00:21:40.960
<v Speaker 2>of that, you would think, is this group who are

404
00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:43.720
<v Speaker 2>young and and in great shape. What's going on.

405
00:21:45.400 --> 00:21:48.519
<v Speaker 5>I think it's a result of multiple different things. I

406
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:51.880
<v Speaker 5>know that data that come out recently shows that over

407
00:21:51.880 --> 00:21:55.079
<v Speaker 5>the course of the last five years the rate of

408
00:21:55.160 --> 00:21:58.400
<v Speaker 5>heart attack has gone up by almost forty one percent

409
00:21:58.519 --> 00:22:02.000
<v Speaker 5>between that age group, a young population between twenty five

410
00:22:02.039 --> 00:22:06.880
<v Speaker 5>to forty three age and the reasons it could beat

411
00:22:06.920 --> 00:22:11.240
<v Speaker 5>the COVID virus it self that had caused some damage

412
00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:14.559
<v Speaker 5>to the vascular system. I think there's more than one reason,

413
00:22:14.599 --> 00:22:17.720
<v Speaker 5>though I do believe stress is a factor. More and

414
00:22:17.759 --> 00:22:21.400
<v Speaker 5>more people are stressed out for various reasons. Job related

415
00:22:21.799 --> 00:22:26.000
<v Speaker 5>schedule is not as great, people not sleeping well. Sleep

416
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:31.039
<v Speaker 5>is now considered a major risk factor by the American heresitiation. Also,

417
00:22:31.079 --> 00:22:33.240
<v Speaker 5>a lot of people who are fit and Jim Gores

418
00:22:33.759 --> 00:22:38.720
<v Speaker 5>may be taking exogenists, you know, storage such as disosterone shots,

419
00:22:38.839 --> 00:22:41.839
<v Speaker 5>which are very common and very popular. Right now. They

420
00:22:41.880 --> 00:22:45.359
<v Speaker 5>have Distoston shots as centers. I don't know how well

421
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:48.200
<v Speaker 5>regulated these are, but the reason they bring this up

422
00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:52.519
<v Speaker 5>is because there is an inherent risk of increased cardiovascular

423
00:22:52.920 --> 00:22:56.480
<v Speaker 5>events as a result of disosterone shots, so that could

424
00:22:56.480 --> 00:22:57.720
<v Speaker 5>be playing a role as well.

425
00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:01.960
<v Speaker 2>Well. Why would I assume you're talking to young men

426
00:23:02.119 --> 00:23:05.039
<v Speaker 2>in that situation. If I'm wrong, please correct me. But

427
00:23:05.440 --> 00:23:09.720
<v Speaker 2>why would a young man who is working out and

428
00:23:09.759 --> 00:23:14.319
<v Speaker 2>who is in obviously good physical condition, why would they

429
00:23:14.400 --> 00:23:18.000
<v Speaker 2>even think about testosterone shots. I mean, I understand that

430
00:23:18.039 --> 00:23:21.160
<v Speaker 2>there are people who have certain medical conditions later in

431
00:23:21.160 --> 00:23:26.039
<v Speaker 2>life and they may need to have a testosterone shot,

432
00:23:26.359 --> 00:23:29.440
<v Speaker 2>But if you're a twenty five year old guy who's

433
00:23:29.519 --> 00:23:34.160
<v Speaker 2>in a gym and you're in good shape, I would

434
00:23:34.160 --> 00:23:37.880
<v Speaker 2>think you got all the testosterone that you need. Educate

435
00:23:37.960 --> 00:23:43.000
<v Speaker 2>me if you will.

436
00:23:41.039 --> 00:23:44.279
<v Speaker 5>You're absolutely correct. It's mind boggling to think that a

437
00:23:44.440 --> 00:23:47.640
<v Speaker 5>young male would take testosteron shots. But believe it or not,

438
00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:51.079
<v Speaker 5>I am talking about the young population, and yes, testostian

439
00:23:51.119 --> 00:23:54.440
<v Speaker 5>shots have become very popular among young groups, not because

440
00:23:54.440 --> 00:23:58.079
<v Speaker 5>they're low on testosterone, but because it's a very popular

441
00:23:58.119 --> 00:24:01.400
<v Speaker 5>item to use for jim doors. For example, a lot

442
00:24:01.440 --> 00:24:05.000
<v Speaker 5>of you know, personal trainers, they encourage them because it

443
00:24:05.119 --> 00:24:09.240
<v Speaker 5>helps build muscle, so it is an exogynous steroid. It

444
00:24:09.319 --> 00:24:13.720
<v Speaker 5>is something that helps people who are trying to build muscle,

445
00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:16.720
<v Speaker 5>and you know, like it beats things up, and so

446
00:24:16.799 --> 00:24:21.279
<v Speaker 5>it has become a very popular thing to you among

447
00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:22.440
<v Speaker 5>young young folks.

448
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:26.839
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so if you use testosterone shots to build up

449
00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:30.599
<v Speaker 2>your your muscle fiber so you can you can press

450
00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:34.440
<v Speaker 2>or lift a little more than you could. You're going

451
00:24:34.519 --> 00:24:40.119
<v Speaker 2>to have to keep doing that or that testosteroe. You

452
00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:42.839
<v Speaker 2>just kind of like take the shots. Once you start

453
00:24:42.880 --> 00:24:45.200
<v Speaker 2>taking them and relying them, you've got to stick with them,

454
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:47.039
<v Speaker 2>I assume if you want to maintain where.

455
00:24:46.880 --> 00:24:49.680
<v Speaker 3>You are correct, that is correct.

456
00:24:49.720 --> 00:24:52.599
<v Speaker 5>And it also has many side effects. You know, one

457
00:24:52.640 --> 00:24:56.039
<v Speaker 5>of the most feared one of course, is the increased

458
00:24:56.119 --> 00:24:59.720
<v Speaker 5>risk of cardiovascular disease and events like heart attack. And

459
00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:03.880
<v Speaker 5>but also you're right, like when you're giving something that

460
00:25:03.920 --> 00:25:08.000
<v Speaker 5>you don't need, it does mess with their entire hormone system.

461
00:25:08.079 --> 00:25:13.480
<v Speaker 5>The access that creates natural hormone kind of gets messed

462
00:25:13.519 --> 00:25:16.160
<v Speaker 5>up a little bit, like it doesn't have that natural

463
00:25:16.359 --> 00:25:20.400
<v Speaker 5>feedback system anymore, and so you can't really abruptly stop it,

464
00:25:20.480 --> 00:25:22.759
<v Speaker 5>and when you do, it can have a lot of

465
00:25:22.759 --> 00:25:26.720
<v Speaker 5>detrimental impact, and of course taking it will have the

466
00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:32.720
<v Speaker 5>same effect. It can affect all organ systems, including your

467
00:25:33.240 --> 00:25:37.200
<v Speaker 5>cardiovascular you know, your urological system, so it can have

468
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:41.079
<v Speaker 5>a wide impact on your whole body.

469
00:25:43.000 --> 00:25:47.920
<v Speaker 2>At what point should people who really want to take

470
00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:51.680
<v Speaker 2>care of their heart. I know that cancer and heart

471
00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:59.759
<v Speaker 2>disease are the two primary killers in this country. Cancer Obviously,

472
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:02.759
<v Speaker 2>you no can do blood screening tests for cancer. I'm

473
00:26:02.759 --> 00:26:06.759
<v Speaker 2>sure you're familiar with those, and obviously going to your

474
00:26:07.240 --> 00:26:11.000
<v Speaker 2>personal care physician, your PCP, they can do all sorts

475
00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:16.559
<v Speaker 2>of tests and they can spot heart problems. Are we

476
00:26:16.640 --> 00:26:19.119
<v Speaker 2>getting to the point where people who have the time

477
00:26:20.240 --> 00:26:25.000
<v Speaker 2>and the financial support that people at a certain age men,

478
00:26:25.119 --> 00:26:28.319
<v Speaker 2>maybe at one point women and another should incorporate a

479
00:26:28.400 --> 00:26:33.640
<v Speaker 2>cardiologist into their annual medical tests and routine.

480
00:26:35.759 --> 00:26:37.920
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely, I totally agree with that, and I'm a big

481
00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:43.279
<v Speaker 5>proponent of preventative medicine. As you know, Yes, cardiovascent disease

482
00:26:43.359 --> 00:26:45.359
<v Speaker 5>is the number one killer for both men and women

483
00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:47.519
<v Speaker 5>here in the United States, but it is also a

484
00:26:47.680 --> 00:26:51.359
<v Speaker 5>very preventable disease. Eighty percent of it is preventable if

485
00:26:51.440 --> 00:26:54.480
<v Speaker 5>you come seek help on time. So yes, for those

486
00:26:54.559 --> 00:26:57.799
<v Speaker 5>who have risk factors such as high blood pressure, hig cholesterol, diabetes,

487
00:26:58.160 --> 00:27:00.359
<v Speaker 5>you know, people who smoke, people who have a family

488
00:27:00.480 --> 00:27:03.279
<v Speaker 5>history of cart disease. They are encouraged to seek help

489
00:27:03.559 --> 00:27:06.720
<v Speaker 5>early on, at least get an evaluation by cardiologists. Just

490
00:27:06.799 --> 00:27:08.039
<v Speaker 5>make sure that everything's are paying.

491
00:27:09.599 --> 00:27:12.160
<v Speaker 2>Is there a you know what I'm saying, is is

492
00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:14.480
<v Speaker 2>there a time frame when people hit you know, we

493
00:27:14.599 --> 00:27:19.000
<v Speaker 2>talk about cancer screening, and we talk about prostate exams,

494
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:24.640
<v Speaker 2>we talk about breast breast examinations, mimographies for women. Is there,

495
00:27:24.839 --> 00:27:29.160
<v Speaker 2>in your experience a period of time in regular people's lives.

496
00:27:29.279 --> 00:27:32.319
<v Speaker 2>You know, if someone gets identified as having a problem

497
00:27:32.400 --> 00:27:35.559
<v Speaker 2>in an annual physical when they're thirty five or forty, obviously,

498
00:27:35.880 --> 00:27:38.440
<v Speaker 2>but is there a point in time when people of

499
00:27:38.559 --> 00:27:42.279
<v Speaker 2>a certain age, men and women should not only be

500
00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:46.200
<v Speaker 2>talking to their doctors about, you know, cardiac health, but

501
00:27:46.480 --> 00:27:51.319
<v Speaker 2>should actually push to have you know, have a car

502
00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:56.799
<v Speaker 2>cardiology special cardiologist check on them every two or three

503
00:27:57.000 --> 00:28:02.000
<v Speaker 2>or four years. What what's the what is the best theory?

504
00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:05.119
<v Speaker 2>It sounds like someone's beeping a hornets you're here, you okay,

505
00:28:06.160 --> 00:28:06.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm good?

506
00:28:06.839 --> 00:28:10.480
<v Speaker 5>Yes, yeah, you know when it comes to you. You

507
00:28:10.599 --> 00:28:14.200
<v Speaker 5>brought up a very good point actually, like for example,

508
00:28:14.440 --> 00:28:17.440
<v Speaker 5>for cancer, like you know, there are certain age groups

509
00:28:17.480 --> 00:28:20.240
<v Speaker 5>where we have specific time, like you know you get

510
00:28:20.279 --> 00:28:23.279
<v Speaker 5>your mammogram for kolonoscopy at certain age you go get

511
00:28:23.319 --> 00:28:27.240
<v Speaker 5>your screening klonoscopy, and that can prevent that thing. Unfortunately,

512
00:28:27.319 --> 00:28:31.799
<v Speaker 5>there's not a defined age group for cardiovascular screening that's

513
00:28:31.960 --> 00:28:34.359
<v Speaker 5>defined for all age group that, yes, at this age

514
00:28:34.359 --> 00:28:36.039
<v Speaker 5>you're going to go and get your heart checked.

515
00:28:36.359 --> 00:28:37.160
<v Speaker 4>That doesn't exist.

516
00:28:37.279 --> 00:28:40.759
<v Speaker 5>In my opinion, it should. We do have things where

517
00:28:40.799 --> 00:28:43.839
<v Speaker 5>we screen for risk factors during certain age groups, like

518
00:28:43.839 --> 00:28:46.599
<v Speaker 5>you know, for example, your lab work early lab work

519
00:28:46.839 --> 00:28:49.680
<v Speaker 5>where we're getting your cholesterol checked of course every time

520
00:28:49.720 --> 00:28:51.880
<v Speaker 5>you go to the doctor's office blood pressure is being checked,

521
00:28:53.119 --> 00:28:58.440
<v Speaker 5>and diabetes. But aside from those like actual true cardiovascular

522
00:28:58.559 --> 00:29:02.119
<v Speaker 5>screening and specific parti at testing, No, there's not a

523
00:29:02.200 --> 00:29:05.680
<v Speaker 5>defined age group that regardless of where you're at this age,

524
00:29:05.720 --> 00:29:08.119
<v Speaker 5>you're going to go and get your heart check. Unfortunately,

525
00:29:08.160 --> 00:29:10.759
<v Speaker 5>that doesn't exist, and that is something that we need.

526
00:29:10.680 --> 00:29:11.039
<v Speaker 3>To work on.

527
00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:15.599
<v Speaker 2>Well, maybe we can start a conversation. Thank you so

528
00:29:15.720 --> 00:29:19.599
<v Speaker 2>much for your time tonight on a Friday night, doctor Farah,

529
00:29:20.839 --> 00:29:24.519
<v Speaker 2>and love to have you back periodically. Just to emphasize

530
00:29:24.559 --> 00:29:27.799
<v Speaker 2>to people what clearly should be obvious, and that is

531
00:29:27.880 --> 00:29:30.079
<v Speaker 2>the importance of their heart health. Thank you so much

532
00:29:30.160 --> 00:29:31.119
<v Speaker 2>for your time this evening.

533
00:29:32.119 --> 00:29:33.119
<v Speaker 5>Thank you, it's my pleasure.

534
00:29:33.680 --> 00:29:38.160
<v Speaker 2>Okay, when we get back, we have one more eight

535
00:29:38.160 --> 00:29:41.079
<v Speaker 2>o'clock guest for this week for you. And this is

536
00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:47.000
<v Speaker 2>besides being Domestic Violence Awareness Month, amongst others, there's also

537
00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:51.119
<v Speaker 2>National Energy Awareness Month, and we have some easy ways

538
00:29:51.319 --> 00:29:55.680
<v Speaker 2>that my listeners can reduce their energy uses. If you've

539
00:29:55.720 --> 00:29:58.720
<v Speaker 2>looked at your energy bills lately, I hope you're sitting down.

540
00:29:58.880 --> 00:30:01.880
<v Speaker 2>They're all going up, and they're going up at rates

541
00:30:01.920 --> 00:30:04.839
<v Speaker 2>that are much faster, in my opinion, than inflation. And

542
00:30:04.880 --> 00:30:07.200
<v Speaker 2>we're going to talk with an expert and energy expert

543
00:30:08.039 --> 00:30:13.599
<v Speaker 2>and inventor of what's called wand free. I'll explain, uh,

544
00:30:14.599 --> 00:30:17.519
<v Speaker 2>well that's unrelated to energy, but that's okay. We'll talk

545
00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:19.079
<v Speaker 2>to you about that as well. We'll be back on

546
00:30:19.160 --> 00:30:20.039
<v Speaker 2>Nightside right after this.

547
00:30:21.319 --> 00:30:24.279
<v Speaker 1>Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World

548
00:30:24.440 --> 00:30:27.519
<v Speaker 1>night Side Studios. I'm Dumbs News Radio.

549
00:30:28.799 --> 00:30:32.359
<v Speaker 2>All I want to welcome Cindy Bray. Cindy's an energy

550
00:30:32.480 --> 00:30:37.240
<v Speaker 2>expert and this is the National Energy Awareness Month. Cindy,

551
00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:39.359
<v Speaker 2>I guess you've got to be able to tell us

552
00:30:39.400 --> 00:30:42.319
<v Speaker 2>why our bills are so high and maybe what we

553
00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:45.799
<v Speaker 2>can do to reduce them. I keep a good record

554
00:30:45.960 --> 00:30:49.240
<v Speaker 2>of how much I pay every month year to year,

555
00:30:49.400 --> 00:30:53.799
<v Speaker 2>and also how much my killowatt hour my energy usage is,

556
00:30:54.480 --> 00:30:57.160
<v Speaker 2>and no matter how hard I try, the numbers keep

557
00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:00.200
<v Speaker 2>going up. And what's going on? Going on?

558
00:31:01.559 --> 00:31:02.440
<v Speaker 6>What is going on?

559
00:31:02.920 --> 00:31:03.079
<v Speaker 2>Right?

560
00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:06.319
<v Speaker 6>We all have that question, and I think in Massachusetts

561
00:31:06.400 --> 00:31:10.960
<v Speaker 6>you are well over the national average for your energy rates.

562
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:14.880
<v Speaker 6>I commend you on tracking your your usage, but yep,

563
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:18.799
<v Speaker 6>there's a lot going on, and our energy bills just

564
00:31:19.279 --> 00:31:20.480
<v Speaker 6>keep rising.

565
00:31:21.279 --> 00:31:24.359
<v Speaker 2>Well, Cindy, we have here in Massachusetts something that I

566
00:31:24.480 --> 00:31:26.920
<v Speaker 2>have found to be very helpful, and that is you

567
00:31:27.000 --> 00:31:29.119
<v Speaker 2>could go in there's a site that is actually run

568
00:31:29.240 --> 00:31:32.240
<v Speaker 2>by I think by the call Off of Massachusetts in

569
00:31:32.319 --> 00:31:34.880
<v Speaker 2>which will tell you that if you you're what the

570
00:31:35.079 --> 00:31:38.920
<v Speaker 2>various energy deals that are being offered. And that is

571
00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:41.039
<v Speaker 2>a way in which I've been able to really keep

572
00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:43.839
<v Speaker 2>my energy bill more under control. Now you got to

573
00:31:43.920 --> 00:31:45.720
<v Speaker 2>do it every two or three months just to see

574
00:31:45.759 --> 00:31:51.480
<v Speaker 2>where the with the per you know, therm or poer kill,

575
00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:55.160
<v Speaker 2>what our prices have gone up. Which is a wonderful tool.

576
00:31:55.200 --> 00:31:57.720
<v Speaker 2>It was actually it's been around here in Massachusetts about

577
00:31:57.720 --> 00:32:00.599
<v Speaker 2>a thirty for about thirty years at guess one. The

578
00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:04.640
<v Speaker 2>state of Massachusetts, including the Attorney General's Office here, which

579
00:32:04.720 --> 00:32:07.559
<v Speaker 2>is normally a big advocate for things like this, they're

580
00:32:07.599 --> 00:32:10.880
<v Speaker 2>trying to pull it down, pull that website down. Are

581
00:32:10.880 --> 00:32:11.319
<v Speaker 2>you where that?

582
00:32:11.599 --> 00:32:11.720
<v Speaker 4>Oh?

583
00:32:13.039 --> 00:32:16.880
<v Speaker 6>No, I wasn't. But I can give you some really

584
00:32:17.000 --> 00:32:20.319
<v Speaker 6>easy tips on how you can pull down your energy

585
00:32:20.400 --> 00:32:26.039
<v Speaker 6>bill when you're doing your laundry. Right, So we're going

586
00:32:26.119 --> 00:32:29.559
<v Speaker 6>to focus in the laundry room because about ten percent

587
00:32:29.839 --> 00:32:33.240
<v Speaker 6>of your energy bill goes to doing laundry, which is

588
00:32:33.319 --> 00:32:37.400
<v Speaker 6>a lot, right, Okay, sure, and we've all got to

589
00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:41.359
<v Speaker 6>do our laundry. It's never ending as we're going into.

590
00:32:41.200 --> 00:32:44.599
<v Speaker 4>The weekends of that. Yeah, right, So what do we do?

591
00:32:44.960 --> 00:32:45.319
<v Speaker 2>What do we do?

592
00:32:46.400 --> 00:32:48.200
<v Speaker 6>Yeah? So the first thing I'm going to have you

593
00:32:48.319 --> 00:32:51.640
<v Speaker 6>do is go to your washing machine and turn the

594
00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:56.240
<v Speaker 6>temperature of the water down to cold. The washing machine

595
00:32:56.279 --> 00:32:59.599
<v Speaker 6>itself is a pretty efficient appliance. Most of the energy

596
00:32:59.680 --> 00:33:02.039
<v Speaker 6>that you use when you're using the washing machine is

597
00:33:02.119 --> 00:33:06.359
<v Speaker 6>actually going to heat the water. So turn the temperature

598
00:33:06.440 --> 00:33:09.240
<v Speaker 6>down to cold, and don't worry that your clothes aren't

599
00:33:09.279 --> 00:33:12.720
<v Speaker 6>coming out clean because a lot of the detergent on

600
00:33:12.920 --> 00:33:16.559
<v Speaker 6>the market these days is actually formulated to work best

601
00:33:16.720 --> 00:33:20.799
<v Speaker 6>in cold water. And here's another bonus. All your clothes

602
00:33:20.880 --> 00:33:23.240
<v Speaker 6>and your sheets, everything is going to last a lot

603
00:33:23.359 --> 00:33:25.640
<v Speaker 6>longer if you wash it in cold water.

604
00:33:26.759 --> 00:33:29.240
<v Speaker 2>Well that I did not realize when I think about it.

605
00:33:29.440 --> 00:33:33.680
<v Speaker 2>You know, native populations all around the world have always

606
00:33:33.880 --> 00:33:38.359
<v Speaker 2>washed clothes in river water, and has ever been better

607
00:33:38.400 --> 00:33:41.039
<v Speaker 2>be warmed up. I always noticed on my machine that

608
00:33:41.079 --> 00:33:44.039
<v Speaker 2>if you wash whites, you know, they have different whites

609
00:33:44.160 --> 00:33:46.200
<v Speaker 2>or colors, And I do know how to run a

610
00:33:46.319 --> 00:33:51.400
<v Speaker 2>washing machine. If you wash whites, the default level is

611
00:33:51.599 --> 00:33:55.160
<v Speaker 2>much warmer than if you were washing colors. And I

612
00:33:55.240 --> 00:33:57.359
<v Speaker 2>always thought about that was what you want to get

613
00:33:57.400 --> 00:34:01.519
<v Speaker 2>the whites a little cleaner. You don't want the colors

614
00:34:01.599 --> 00:34:05.279
<v Speaker 2>to run with with overly hot water. So it's more

615
00:34:05.359 --> 00:34:06.640
<v Speaker 2>than that what you're telling me.

616
00:34:07.640 --> 00:34:11.360
<v Speaker 6>Here's what I try it. Use cold water. If you're

617
00:34:11.360 --> 00:34:14.039
<v Speaker 6>worried about your whites, put in a little bit of oxy,

618
00:34:14.519 --> 00:34:18.440
<v Speaker 6>a little oxy bleach, oxy clean, and with your whites

619
00:34:19.320 --> 00:34:19.840
<v Speaker 6>cold water.

620
00:34:20.760 --> 00:34:22.360
<v Speaker 4>It's good enough for most loads.

621
00:34:23.079 --> 00:34:23.400
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

622
00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:25.559
<v Speaker 6>And when you use cold water, you don't have to

623
00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:27.800
<v Speaker 6>sort as much either, So that's another bonus.

624
00:34:28.119 --> 00:34:32.679
<v Speaker 2>Okay, and what about the drying elements. You know, I

625
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:38.360
<v Speaker 2>try to, like during the nice weather, I will open

626
00:34:38.519 --> 00:34:41.239
<v Speaker 2>up doors and hang things on doors to try to

627
00:34:41.320 --> 00:34:43.039
<v Speaker 2>let them. You know, in the old days, when I

628
00:34:43.159 --> 00:34:45.639
<v Speaker 2>was a kid, my mother had had there was, you know,

629
00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:49.199
<v Speaker 2>a laundry line and clothes pins. Because I have no

630
00:34:49.360 --> 00:34:53.639
<v Speaker 2>idea what clothes pins are. And I'm serious, I mean,

631
00:34:53.760 --> 00:34:54.920
<v Speaker 2>let let mother know.

632
00:34:56.440 --> 00:34:58.880
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, and it's almost most efficient.

633
00:34:59.159 --> 00:35:01.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but it's almost it's like shameful now that if

634
00:35:01.920 --> 00:35:04.400
<v Speaker 2>you don't have a wash and a dryer. And I

635
00:35:04.519 --> 00:35:06.760
<v Speaker 2>think a lot of people feel or they don't want

636
00:35:06.760 --> 00:35:09.760
<v Speaker 2>to hang their laundry, even like things like towels. What's

637
00:35:10.239 --> 00:35:11.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, I could see when maybe people don't want

638
00:35:11.920 --> 00:35:14.480
<v Speaker 2>to hang their underwear out in the line. I get that, okay,

639
00:35:14.719 --> 00:35:17.440
<v Speaker 2>but but what's wrong with hanging your towels? Having a

640
00:35:17.480 --> 00:35:21.880
<v Speaker 2>clothes line and hanging towels. Has that just fallen out

641
00:35:21.960 --> 00:35:23.880
<v Speaker 2>of vogue here in New England or is that around

642
00:35:23.920 --> 00:35:24.320
<v Speaker 2>the country.

643
00:35:25.480 --> 00:35:27.639
<v Speaker 6>I think a lot of people don't even have access

644
00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:31.920
<v Speaker 6>to a clothes line. Or perhaps it's rainy, or it's cold,

645
00:35:32.159 --> 00:35:36.159
<v Speaker 6>or wildfires, allergens in the air, all of those things

646
00:35:36.239 --> 00:35:38.199
<v Speaker 6>get in your in your clothes and some of the

647
00:35:38.800 --> 00:35:41.360
<v Speaker 6>some of the neighborhoods actually have a covenant that you

648
00:35:41.400 --> 00:35:42.960
<v Speaker 6>can't have a clothes line outside.

649
00:35:43.559 --> 00:35:46.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, because those are your fancies, fancy neighborhoods. And

650
00:35:46.840 --> 00:35:49.320
<v Speaker 2>it seems to me, if it's your land and it's

651
00:35:49.400 --> 00:35:52.159
<v Speaker 2>your property, uh, and you want to put up a

652
00:35:52.239 --> 00:35:55.440
<v Speaker 2>clothes line, I don't know, it's it's uh.

653
00:35:55.760 --> 00:35:58.119
<v Speaker 6>I'm with you because well it's something that I grew

654
00:35:58.199 --> 00:35:58.440
<v Speaker 6>up with.

655
00:35:58.760 --> 00:36:01.239
<v Speaker 2>And now we didn't in the richest part of town,

656
00:36:01.440 --> 00:36:04.119
<v Speaker 2>trust me on that. And the lots were small, they

657
00:36:04.159 --> 00:36:06.760
<v Speaker 2>were like, you know, eighth of the eighth of an

658
00:36:06.800 --> 00:36:13.760
<v Speaker 2>acre watt, but everybody had a clothesline. And I mean,

659
00:36:14.960 --> 00:36:18.159
<v Speaker 2>well it got a couple of more tips here. We

660
00:36:18.239 --> 00:36:19.239
<v Speaker 2>got about a minute left.

661
00:36:20.039 --> 00:36:23.639
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, So my biggest tip for you is going to

662
00:36:23.719 --> 00:36:25.880
<v Speaker 6>be when you are doing your sheets.

663
00:36:26.519 --> 00:36:26.719
<v Speaker 2>Yep.

664
00:36:27.000 --> 00:36:29.320
<v Speaker 6>You know how they twist and they tangle and they

665
00:36:29.480 --> 00:36:31.760
<v Speaker 6>ball up. So when that happens in the washing machine,

666
00:36:31.800 --> 00:36:33.639
<v Speaker 6>they don't come out very clean. They can send a

667
00:36:33.840 --> 00:36:37.440
<v Speaker 6>washer off balance, and then when they ball up in

668
00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:41.440
<v Speaker 6>the dryer. In Massachusetts, you are paying on average a

669
00:36:41.639 --> 00:36:46.679
<v Speaker 6>dollar fifteen per hour in energy costs alone just to

670
00:36:46.840 --> 00:36:50.280
<v Speaker 6>run the average dryer. So when your sheets ball up

671
00:36:50.840 --> 00:36:52.840
<v Speaker 6>and don't come out dry and you have to run

672
00:36:52.880 --> 00:36:55.719
<v Speaker 6>the dryer again and again, it's really annoying. But it's

673
00:36:55.840 --> 00:37:01.000
<v Speaker 6>also really wasteful. And that's why I invent into the solution.

674
00:37:01.400 --> 00:37:05.000
<v Speaker 6>It's called wad Free for bed sheets, and it prevents

675
00:37:05.039 --> 00:37:07.960
<v Speaker 6>your sheets from wadding up in the washing.

676
00:37:07.880 --> 00:37:11.760
<v Speaker 2>Machine real and the dry here, real quickly. Here is

677
00:37:11.840 --> 00:37:14.559
<v Speaker 2>that a liquid that you that you pour in during

678
00:37:14.599 --> 00:37:17.679
<v Speaker 2>the wash or no, no, no no, you throw into

679
00:37:17.719 --> 00:37:18.840
<v Speaker 2>the dryer when you put the sheets.

680
00:37:19.039 --> 00:37:21.400
<v Speaker 6>No no, no, no, no, neither one. It is a

681
00:37:21.639 --> 00:37:27.119
<v Speaker 6>reusable made in the US, a laundry gadget that attaches

682
00:37:27.920 --> 00:37:30.719
<v Speaker 6>to each sheet in the load that comes to in

683
00:37:30.800 --> 00:37:33.159
<v Speaker 6>a package. So it's enough for both a flat and

684
00:37:33.320 --> 00:37:36.400
<v Speaker 6>a fitted sheet. Okay, it goes. It attaches to the

685
00:37:36.519 --> 00:37:39.599
<v Speaker 6>four corners. It keeps the sheets separate so they come

686
00:37:39.679 --> 00:37:43.079
<v Speaker 6>out cleaner and they drive sweat.

687
00:37:42.880 --> 00:37:45.800
<v Speaker 2>Out of time. Thirty seconds goes very quickly. How can

688
00:37:45.880 --> 00:37:48.159
<v Speaker 2>people find that? What's what's the website?

689
00:37:49.320 --> 00:37:52.880
<v Speaker 6>Wadfree dot com is the best place order from that

690
00:37:53.000 --> 00:37:53.719
<v Speaker 6>small business.

691
00:37:53.800 --> 00:37:56.519
<v Speaker 2>That's I got it. I got a locomotive train coming

692
00:37:56.519 --> 00:37:58.280
<v Speaker 2>at me. It's called the nine o'clock News I don't

693
00:37:58.280 --> 00:37:58.920
<v Speaker 2>mean to be rude.

694
00:37:59.079 --> 00:37:59.360
<v Speaker 4>Goys.

695
00:37:59.440 --> 00:38:04.360
<v Speaker 2>Wadfree Cindy Bray, thanks and Amazon much. All right, thanks,

696
00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:07.400
<v Speaker 2>you got that in. Thanks Cindy, I appreciate it. Talk soon. Okay,

697
00:38:08.159 --> 00:38:10.440
<v Speaker 2>here comes to nine o'clock news on night side. We're

698
00:38:10.480 --> 00:38:12.719
<v Speaker 2>going to be talking about the long shoreman's strike, which

699
00:38:12.800 --> 00:38:14.519
<v Speaker 2>is no longer a strike. I don't even know what

700
00:38:14.639 --> 00:38:16.840
<v Speaker 2>it is. I think it's like a suspended work stoppage

701
00:38:17.000 --> 00:38:19.920
<v Speaker 2>which could resume on January fifteenth. We'll work it out,

702
00:38:20.519 --> 00:38:22.360
<v Speaker 2>work it all out for you. On the other side

703
00:38:22.719 --> 00:38:23.719
<v Speaker 2>of the nine o'clock News
