WEBVTT - Thom Brennaman -- 10/21/25 0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:04.160 Boomburg Money minette on seven hundred WLW. 0:00:04.040 --> 0:00:06.320 Alrighty, we say good morning once more to our friend 0:00:06.320 --> 0:00:10.400 Gina Cervetti from the Bloomberg newsroom in New York, New York. 0:00:10.440 --> 0:00:14.200 General Motors a strong quarter and sees good things ahead 0:00:14.280 --> 0:00:17.040 for the company. Gina, that's right, Tom. 0:00:17.079 --> 0:00:20.119 Sales of pickups and SUVs are reving higher at GM, 0:00:20.160 --> 0:00:22.919 and now it's raised its full year outlook. It posted 0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:26.320 third quarter results that topped Wall Street estimates. GM is 0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:29.160 also getting a boost from fresh relief from tariffs on 0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:32.720 auto parts. Seems like investors really like what they heard. 0:00:32.800 --> 0:00:35.920 General Motor shares are higher ahead of the opening bell. 0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:37.120 Tom, it's good news. 0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:40.839 Coca Cola meanwhile winning over shoppers despite higher prices for 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:42.960 its drinks here recently. 0:00:43.640 --> 0:00:46.479 Yeah Coke posted third quarter sales growth that beat what 0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:49.960 Wall Street was expecting, a sign that consumers are still 0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:53.840 snapping up the beverages despite those higher prices on the shelves. 0:00:54.200 --> 0:00:57.400 The results point to Coke winning over shoppers with its 0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:01.400 widening portfolio of drinks and that include sugar free sodas, 0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:05.240 sports drinks, water. They've also been serving up smaller sized 0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:08.119 bottles and cans, and that is helping to drive sales 0:01:08.160 --> 0:01:08.800 at Coke. 0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:13.200 Okay, and the futures this morning after a big day yesterday, a. 0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:15.760 Little quieter, but they're starting to show some signs of 0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:19.320 life down. Futures up twenty one, SMP futures up two, 0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:20.840 Nasdaq futures are up. 0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:22.240 One from Bloomberg. 0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:25.800 Gina Cervetti on News Radio seven hundred WLW. 0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:32.160 All right, welcome back to the morning show here on 0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:37.040 seven hundred WLW. I got to know Brandon Saho a 0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:40.080 little bit. Many of you knew him perhaps growing up, 0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:43.680 went to LaSalle High School and then of course was 0:01:43.720 --> 0:01:50.160 seen regularly on the Channel five News handling the sports. 0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:53.360 Very very talented guy. After he left Channel five, I 0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:56.920 had a chance to work with Brandon Sajo at Chatterbox Sports, 0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:00.880 which basically was a startup and does great work covering 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:03.880 sports in and around the Tri State high school, college, 0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:04.400 pro etc. 0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:05.000 Etc. 0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:08.480 But what I did not know when I started working 0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:11.360 with Brandon Saho all of the things that he has 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:16.960 had to battle in his life, depression and suicide. So 0:02:17.560 --> 0:02:21.880 after he left Chatterbox, he started to try and embark 0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:26.079 on helping others in the same situation that he has 0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:28.839 been in and it's a pleasure to be joined by 0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:33.040 the aforementioned Brandon say hoo. I mean he's NonStop. He's 0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:36.480 trying to hit all fifty states. How close are you, 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:37.560 Brandon say hoo? 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.240 Well, Tom, first, I have to call you my main man. 0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:43.120 That's what you call me every time I see you. 0:02:43.280 --> 0:02:45.280 So my main man, Tom brendanman on the big one. 0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:48.760 Thanks for having me. I am at state number forty six. 0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:49.960 I have four more left. 0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:54.320 I was in Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota last week, 0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:58.840 so I have Hawaii, Wyoming, Idaho, and Alaska left. 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:01.480 I mean, look, we'll get to the other stuff in 0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:04.520 a minute, but I mean you could probably right a 0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:08.600 travel guide because some of those places ain't exactly easy 0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:09.200 to get to. 0:03:10.960 --> 0:03:15.280 No, it's hard to fly into Dickinson, North Dakota. The 0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:18.960 airport's about the size of a high school classroom. 0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:21.120 But it was awesome to go. 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:23.600 And I'll tell you this, Tom, I've been lucky to 0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:26.639 drive all over the country. You fly all over a 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:29.239 place like that, man, it really put it in perspective. 0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:32.920 I'll say this, I probably met eight to ten people 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:36.440 who were touched by suicide in their immediate family. I 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:41.160 mean one woman lost her husband and then brought in. 0:03:41.120 --> 0:03:43.160 Her niece who lost her mom and dad. 0:03:43.280 --> 0:03:45.800 I mean, it's just it's sad, man, but we have 0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:47.920 these conversations that hopefully help save lives. 0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:50.120 Well, and there's no doubt you're doing it. You've got 0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:55.680 an incredible reception even from the Ohio Suicide Prevention Group 0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:58.800 that's based out of Columbus, Ohio. This week, you've got 0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:01.880 a very, very busy let's hit some of the highlights. 0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:05.320 Starting in about what two and a half hours from now, 0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:08.680 you're gonna have a mental health PEP rally at the 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:09.760 University of Dayton. 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:15.320 I'm sitting outside my favorite arena in college basketball, UD Arena. 0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:15.680 Yeah. 0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:19.440 I've been really fortunate to become friends with Coach Grant 0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:22.560 and the Grant family. They lost their daughter, Jada three 0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:24.599 years ago, who was a freshman on the track team 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:28.160 here to suicide, and ever since, you know, they've tried 0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:31.280 to save lives too. So today we're here with care stores, 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:34.599 trying to do our best to inspire kids from all around, 0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:36.880 you know, the greater Dayton area. We should have a 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:40.120 few thousand kids in UD Arena and I'll share my 0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:43.120 story and also work with amazing mental health professionals. But 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:45.200 it's part of a huge week, you know, Coach Grant 0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:48.960 starting this initiative with his family, at UD has created 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:51.200 a basketball series, like I said, with care stores that 0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:53.920 takes us all over the country. They played Penn State 0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:57.960 on Sunday. I'll be flying down with UC as they 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:00.880 match up with Arkansas on Friday for another pep rally 0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:01.640 against coach. 0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:02.640 Cal And then they got a. 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:05.880 Big one regular season game in early December. Same day 0:05:05.880 --> 0:05:07.480 it's a Big ten championship game in Indy. 0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:09.479 I you and Louisville. 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:12.080 Playing on national TV to break the stigma. I mean, 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:15.120 it all stemmed from Coach Grant wanting to share his 0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:17.640 story and his daughter's story with Jay's Light. And I 0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:20.000 can't believe it's grown this much over the last three years. 0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:20.279 Yeah. 0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:23.400 And by the way, the one in Arkansas on Friday, 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:25.920 you'll be joined by not only coach Caliperi, but also 0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:30.160 is coach Miller and the teams before the game. When 0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:33.360 you're speaking in front of and I would imagine maybe 0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:36.080 I'm wrong on this, Brandon. When you're standing up in 0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:40.599 front of young young kids, elementary school kids, is the 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:43.440 message a little bit different? Do you have to tweak 0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:46.000 it a little bit, just because if nothing else, life 0:05:46.080 --> 0:05:50.360 experience from say an elementary school kid to those that 0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:52.560 are in high school if not older. 0:05:53.760 --> 0:05:54.920 Yeah, you definitely do. 0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:57.680 And I think you know, the message is still the 0:05:57.720 --> 0:06:00.640 same of knowing that these feelings are temper and you 0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:02.560 can't ask for help and you can't do it alone. 0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:04.320 But man, you know my journey. 0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:06.160 You saw me have some of my roughest days when 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:10.400 it came to maybe alcoholism or other addition struggles. You 0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:12.919 might lay off that a little bit when you're talking 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:15.400 to a younger group, But I'll tell you this, Tom, 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:18.400 I mean, I give the chance to speak with you know, 0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:22.599 Fortune five hundred companies in conference rooms to elementary schools 0:06:22.600 --> 0:06:26.280 to arenas like today, kids that are that age from 0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:29.120 elementary up to junior high and high school, they are 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:31.520 the best when it comes to mental health because they 0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:34.880 are seeing it every day and they're open to those conversations, 0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:36.960 unlike we were when we were growing up. 0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:39.760 Yeah, and I mean you suffered from this kind of thing, 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:42.400 going all the way back to an experience you had 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:43.080 in high school. 0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:48.600 Yeah, I had a picture get sent around at a 0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:52.320 football game in two thousand and seven my freshman year 0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:54.320 a lasaut we were playing at the pit and it 0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:58.839 destroyed me. Man, it was so embarrassing and got made 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:00.599 fun of and felt like I had friends. That was 0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:03.400 the first time I thought of suicide. And thankfully, you know, 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:05.640 because of my friends that I had at LaSalle, those 0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:07.880 two guys, Ryan and Patti'll never forget. 0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:08.200 You know. 0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:09.760 I probably don't make it out of those two to 0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:12.360 three months without those guys asking to sit with me 0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:14.200 at lunch or to hang out on the weekend. So 0:07:14.920 --> 0:07:19.520 I think that maybe to answer your earlier question of 0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:21.600 the younger generation and the kids that I speak to, 0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:25.400 maybe like today, stories like that are relatable because these 0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:27.920 kids are on their phones and they're going through these things, 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:32.120 whether it be maybe you know, dating pictures, different things 0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:35.040 on Snapchat, and we didn't know about it back then. 0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:36.440 I didn't know what a cell phone was, I didn't 0:07:36.440 --> 0:07:39.040 know the power of social media. It was just getting started. 0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:40.120 You know. 0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:45.800 You reflect back on something like that, and it makes 0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:47.760 me wonder. I don't know if this is a part 0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:51.440 of your message or not, but so many studies have 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:57.440 come out in recent years about the term I guess 0:07:57.480 --> 0:08:02.640 would be best mental health disc that is being caused 0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:06.760 by so many kids spending so much time on their 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:09.840 phone and in particular social media. 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:10.480 Is that right? 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:15.280 Yeah, I think there's two sides to every story. I 0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:18.480 think it does do harm, it does hurt kids, and 0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:20.400 there's things that are on the Internet that shouldn't be 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:22.440 or they should you know, not be seeing it on 0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:25.640 their TikTok feed or on their Instagram feed or on Snapchat. 0:08:26.080 --> 0:08:28.000 But on the flip side, man, I wouldn't be doing 0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:31.560 what I'm doing without social media and without seeing somebody's 0:08:31.560 --> 0:08:35.040 message that inspires me. Or I met Terry CRUs on 0:08:35.080 --> 0:08:37.600 Instagram and got to have a conversation with him that 0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:40.679 I think and hope helped millions that watched it on 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:41.680 social media. 0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:43.920 So there's two sides to the story. 0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:46.160 I think, just like everything in life, there's got to 0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:49.000 be a balance. And so you know, for me, I 0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:50.880 joke with you know I live out in la now 0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:53.200 and I joke with the kids that are in high school, 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:54.920 you know that live on my street with their families. 0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:59.520 I go, man, I remember riding my bike and leaving 0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:02.720 my dad house in col Rane and not talking to 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:06.040 my parents the entire weekend, not checking in, not knowing 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.080 what anyone is doing on the Internet and just coming 0:09:08.120 --> 0:09:10.640 back on Sunday and it being okay, and these kids 0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:13.720 are so blown away by it. But I think what's 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:16.040 been cool again is seeing how they talk about it 0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:20.160 and how they accept the way that we embrace mental 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:23.080 health now. Se Yeah, I think it's a healthy, happy 0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:26.280 medium there. But the big point, Tom is that when 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:28.640 you see that it's hurting your mental health and it's 0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:31.280 not helping you no matter what it is, any age, 0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:35.240 social media, drinking, whatever, You've got to realize that and 0:09:35.280 --> 0:09:37.920 take that step away to find a healthy coping mechanism 0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:39.079 instead of an unhealthy one. 0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:40.160 I would holly recommend. 0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:43.520 And we're visiting with Brandon Saho and he is the 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:47.320 host of what has become an enormously popular podcast, it's 0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:51.160 called The Mental Game. And you still have a lot 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:53.920 of sports ties. I mean you've visited with musicians, You've 0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:58.000 visited with many in Hollywood. This week you have Eagles 0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:01.120 star linebacker Zach Bond. What's his story. 0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:04.959 Yeah, his story is incredible, man. I mean he got 0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:08.160 drafted to the Saints kind of a mid to late 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:11.320 round pick and it was a special teamer and working 0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:14.440 his tailoff and when he hit free agency, he took 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:16.640 a chance with the Eagles, kind of bet on himself 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:20.120 was a career special teamer coming here or coming to Philly, 0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:20.680 I should say. 0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:22.920 And at his house in Philly, we talk. 0:10:22.840 --> 0:10:25.520 About how that year changed his life. I mean, he 0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:29.040 just signed a fifty plus million dollar deal, got a 0:10:29.040 --> 0:10:31.520 brand new house, obviously after signing that type of money, 0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:34.880 but that you know, he was broken going into that 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:38.400 year and ended up becoming a team captain, helping seal 0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:41.600 that victory in the Super Bowl, intercepting Patrick Mahomes. And 0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:43.840 I think my favorite part of his journey is just 0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:46.840 how pure and genuine. 0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:50.920 That guy is. I pull up to this beautiful house, probably. 0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:52.160 In the Indian Hill of Philadelphia. 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:54.440 He just bought it, just got his deal. 0:10:54.920 --> 0:10:58.200 And I pull in and I see a like little 0:10:58.280 --> 0:11:01.160 scratch DENTCE on the side of a twenty twenty one 0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:04.160 Honda a court and I'm like, there's no way this 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:06.319 is Zach's carr. And I saw Louisiana plates and I 0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:07.640 used to live down there, so I know. 0:11:07.600 --> 0:11:09.800 What they look like. And I just go, what's the 0:11:09.880 --> 0:11:10.360 deal with that? 0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:12.840 He said, Man, when I had nothing, I was so 0:11:13.040 --> 0:11:17.320 proud to rent to own my first ever car in 0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:19.679 twenty twenty one. I'm not getting red of that thing 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:21.720 until it dies. And I just thought that told a 0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:24.600 lot about that guy's character. But he really opens up 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:27.160 about his friendship with his wife and now when he 0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:29.720 had no one, she was the one that he leaned on. 0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:32.319 And so I'm really excited to tell his and Ali's story. 0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:34.880 Zach Bond coming up here on Tuesday when it comes 0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:35.720 out a week from today. 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.120 All right, please let everybody Brandon say, oh no, how 0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:40.760 they can follow you?

I mean in demand like no other 0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:29.560 in and around the Tri State. Julie, good morning. 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:33.160 I need you to introduce me every day of the week. 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:34.840 I think I'd be unstoppable. 0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:36.960 You are unstoppable. 0:15:38.400 --> 0:15:38.840 Thank you. 0:15:39.200 --> 0:15:39.760 I try. 0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:43.200 I think we're all trying to just keep balanced anymore. 0:15:43.960 --> 0:15:47.760 Well, there's something to be said for that. Part of 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:52.120 finding balance would be our diet. Now we've talked about 0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:55.000 all kinds of things, and I say it all the time. 0:15:55.440 --> 0:15:57.840 This is the most popular segment that we have on 0:15:57.880 --> 0:16:00.240 the morning show each and every week every Tuesday eight 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:04.040 right around eight forty with you Julius Firding And one 0:16:04.080 --> 0:16:05.800 of the fads we're talking. I don't know if it's 0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:08.640 a fad, Maybe that's the wrong word, but all the rage, 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:11.680 the obsession, I guess is a word that you use 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:16.280 has to do with protein. So you know, animal sources 0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:20.440 like meat and poultry and fish and eggs, dairy sources 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:24.400 of complete proteins. There are many in plants, beans and 0:16:24.440 --> 0:16:27.280 peas and lentils and nuts and seeds and so forth. 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:30.760 But everybody feels like this is the be all end all. 0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:35.359 It feels like right now, protein and protein diets. 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:42.160 Tom, I think we've been become protein proud every food. 0:16:42.280 --> 0:16:45.440 I think every food now has its high protein version. 0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:51.800 My cereal, my ice cream, my pancakes, my popcarts, it's 0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:52.400 in everything. 0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:54.080 I think marketing. 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:57.280 Is trying to make me feel good about my bad habits. 0:16:57.840 --> 0:17:01.440 Well, well, now, wait a minute, do we do acknowledge 0:17:01.520 --> 0:17:03.880 that the protein does a lot of good things? So 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:06.879 let's start with the pros of protein. 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:09.920 Oh, there's a. 0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:13.120 Lot of really good pros. You know, it's the building 0:17:13.160 --> 0:17:17.480 block of life, your muscles, your hormones, your enzymes. It 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:20.880 keeps you full, it keeps you focused, it keeps you strong. 0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:25.000 It helps build muscle. It's helpful if you're an athlete 0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:30.200 you're recovering. It's even helps you age well. It maintains 0:17:30.280 --> 0:17:34.080 muscles as you get older. There are so many positives 0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:37.320 for it. But I think at the end of the day, 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:40.560 I think we're getting a little too much protein that 0:17:40.600 --> 0:17:43.240 I don't think there's a balance here. It's not that 0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:47.880 protein is bad, it's that the moderation of proteins get 0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:51.840 lost in the marketing. Everyone's marketing high protein this, high 0:17:51.840 --> 0:17:55.639 protein that. And trust me, I love a good hamburger 0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:56.840 on the grill, but not. 0:17:56.920 --> 0:17:58.760 Three times a day, right, right. 0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:05.520 And also, Tom, I was doing some research yesterday about men. 0:18:05.720 --> 0:18:10.679 I think men get way too much protein really women 0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:13.960 that they need. Yeah, so I was I put your 0:18:14.000 --> 0:18:19.119 statistics in my research, Like, you're an average guy in 0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:23.200 terms of bill and we'll talk about your super average 0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:24.200 and a lot of other things. 0:18:24.280 --> 0:18:26.639 Yeah, I'm very very average in those things. You have 0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:29.719 not far below out. Thank you for reminding me of that, though, Julie. 0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:31.760 Nothing like hearing that at eight forty five. I hear 0:18:31.800 --> 0:18:33.840 that from my wife twenty four hours a day. But 0:18:33.920 --> 0:18:34.360 thank you. 0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:36.120 Oh you're welcome. 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:39.399 Well, so back to you and your diet. 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:41.840 Like so you only need. 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:44.000 About the hunger grams today. So I don't know what 0:18:44.040 --> 0:18:46.520 that really means. So I looked it up. So that 0:18:46.560 --> 0:18:49.800 would be two eggs for breakfast, a chicken sandwich at lunch, 0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:52.440 maybe some fish for dinner or a steak. 0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:54.159 But that's it. You're good. 0:18:54.720 --> 0:18:57.080 You don't need your protein shake in the morning. You 0:18:57.119 --> 0:19:01.879 don't need like a jerky between you don't you don't 0:19:01.920 --> 0:19:03.080 need any more of that. 0:19:04.280 --> 0:19:07.080 Okay, well you said for men, Okay, that makes sense. 0:19:07.440 --> 0:19:08.600 Now what about for women. 0:19:10.040 --> 0:19:13.560 For women, it just depends once again on height and build. 0:19:13.640 --> 0:19:18.280 If they're average, it does come down to about the same, 0:19:18.440 --> 0:19:21.520 a little less than one hundred gram it's about ninety. 0:19:22.160 --> 0:19:24.800 But you know, I always hone in on you know 0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:28.480 that some eggs for breakfast, chicken sandwich, and maybe a 0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:32.000 nice dinner. But if you keep you know, if you 0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:37.080 don't combine your carbs with like having a hamburger without 0:19:37.119 --> 0:19:41.000 a bun, for instance, First of all, it's boring and 0:19:41.080 --> 0:19:41.680 it's weight. 0:19:41.840 --> 0:19:46.840 It's not really boring. Had a cheeseburger last night, really boring. 0:19:47.200 --> 0:19:50.280 Really, but you know you need the bun. The carbs 0:19:50.359 --> 0:19:54.920 with the proteins help you digest better. They give you 0:19:55.000 --> 0:19:58.800 it gives the protein a source to do its thing 0:19:59.440 --> 0:20:02.320 is it's kind of a easy way to say it, 0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:06.080 but you do need your carbs. And here's another thing. 0:20:06.400 --> 0:20:10.080 Way too much protein. So what are we lacking fiber? 0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:14.240 So a lot of people are constipated, so then you 0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:18.879 need metamucil, so then you're taking something else. So you 0:20:19.000 --> 0:20:22.200 have to be careful, like if too much of one thing. 0:20:22.320 --> 0:20:26.399 We've talked about it a lot. It's you can't be 0:20:26.440 --> 0:20:30.880
