Speaker 1: We show seven hundred WLW waiting on the White Death
Speaker 1: but you six to ten maybe is what they're saying.
Speaker 2: Now, we'll see, we'll see, let's say, we'll see.
Speaker 1: Stuff going on in the world. Every week we wait
Speaker 1: for the Supreme Court to come up with the rulings.
Speaker 1: They don't tell you ahead of time what they're going
Speaker 1: to be, what they're gonna be deciding. But three came
Speaker 1: out this week, and not one of them had to
Speaker 1: deal with tariffs. And as you may or may not know,
Speaker 1: these Supreme Courts, probably the busiest under the Trump administration.
Speaker 1: With these rulings, are going to determine how much flexibility
Speaker 1: the president has to levy tariffs. And the early indication
Speaker 1: on this is the Supreme Court is leaning towards disagreement,
Speaker 1: but that could all change.
Speaker 2: They hold it very close to the vest.
Speaker 1: Obviously, let's bring in Ilias Shapiro on this or the
Speaker 1: Manhattan inst to Welcome to the morning.
Speaker 3: How are you good morning, Scott?
Speaker 4: Yeah, not quite sure what theory they're going to rest on,
Speaker 4: but a majority of the justiceses definitely seemed skeptical that,
Speaker 4: at least under this particular statute, which has never been
Speaker 4: used for tariffs that the president could do what he's doing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the bottom line here, so we saw that at
Speaker 1: least two of the likely swing by the Conservatives, it
Speaker 1: be John robertson Justice Barrett Gamy Comy. Barrett indicated that
Speaker 1: maybe they're not inclined to see Trump's side of this thing.
Speaker 1: Roberts quote was, the vehicle is in position of taxes
Speaker 1: on Americans, and that's always been the core power of Congress.
Speaker 1: Even one of Trump's attorneys admitted, I believe it was
Speaker 1: attorney admitted that this was a tax. The fact of
Speaker 1: Texas this undermine the whole thing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the Congress cannot delegate its power to tax, and
Speaker 4: presumably that includes the power to tariff, although other statutes
Speaker 4: that are more narrower have not been challenged in the past,
Speaker 4: and presidents going back, you know, decades have used it.
Speaker 4: In fact, the Treasury Secretary Scott Bessett later said, well,
Speaker 4: the Supreme Court and validates this. We have other ways
Speaker 4: of accomplishing pretty much the same thing, and that is
Speaker 4: more or less correct. If the tariff from or targeted,
Speaker 4: you know, China for national security reasons, other countries for retaliation,
Speaker 4: or whatever the case might be, there are ways of
Speaker 4: running a tariff re jream through the executive office, but
Speaker 4: probably not this particular statue.
Speaker 1: The Solicitor General Sauer read a letter from James Madison
Speaker 1: that it felt like, as I mentioned, undermined their argument
Speaker 1: in saying that, well, a tariff is attacks. Has that
Speaker 1: been overblown that quote or is that something that is
Speaker 1: going to weigh in the minds of the justices.
Speaker 4: Well, it's all part of the same puzzle. So the
Speaker 4: first level analysis is the text of this statute, the
Speaker 4: International Economic Emergency Prevention Act IIPA as it's called, and
Speaker 4: which lists a whole bunch of things that the president
Speaker 4: can do in an emergency block embargo, do various but
Speaker 4: the tax is not listed. And so lawyers, there's a
Speaker 4: tool of interpretation that says, if you have a big
Speaker 4: long list and what you want to do is not included,
Speaker 4: well that's a pretty good indication that that there's no
Speaker 4: authority for that particular thing.
Speaker 3: So that's especially what Justice Barrett was skeptical about.
Speaker 4: And then beyond that is this constitutional delegation of taxing
Speaker 4: authority that we just discussed that for example, Justice Gorsich
Speaker 4: was particularly skeptical about. In Chief Justice Roberts, he just
Speaker 4: thought of, as you just mentioned, this is a major
Speaker 4: question of economic significance, and unless Congress speaks explicitly, he's
Speaker 4: going to be doubtful that the executive can just assume
Speaker 4: that power.
Speaker 1: Ellie Shapiro, Manhattan Insteed, one of the legal framework questions
Speaker 1: you're going to hear thrown around during this decision. It's
Speaker 1: a big one too, because this is a lovely cornerstone
Speaker 1: of his second administration, the tariffs, and as struck down
Speaker 1: by the Court, that's certainly going to have implications to
Speaker 1: the markets and everything else. It's called the Major Questions Doctrine,
Speaker 1: which I understand is a relatively new piece of judicial framework.
Speaker 1: Can you explain what it is and how they developed
Speaker 1: it and wide applies here?
Speaker 4: Apparently I got way ahead of you because that's what
Speaker 4: I was describing that. You know, that's I was trying
Speaker 4: to kind of break it down. Yeah, it's called development.
Speaker 4: This is especially the developed in the last decade or so.
Speaker 4: When there's a question of major political social economics significance,
Speaker 4: unless Congress has specified it, they're not going to defer
Speaker 4: to the executive branch about that. At Chief Justice Roberts,
Speaker 4: the middle of the Court, Roberts, Barrett Cavanaugh are especially
Speaker 4: concerned about that, although in this case, Cavanaugh, who's thought
Speaker 4: as a median vote, seemed to be more towards the
Speaker 4: government side, more deferential to executive power.
Speaker 1: Okay, got it sounds like jeopardy there. The answer was
Speaker 1: a question Elly Sapiro at Manhattan Institute on the show
Speaker 1: This Morning on seven hundred w LW it is it
Speaker 1: tough to read the tea leaves and saying, well, you know,
Speaker 1: Justice Amy Coney, Barrett said this, and Justice on Roberts
Speaker 1: said this, and you go and you start to how
Speaker 1: often does that turned out to be true? Because their
Speaker 1: job is to ask probing questions. Is it presumptuous to
Speaker 1: kind of read into that like we're doing right now?
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, my prediction is worth what you're paying
Speaker 4: for it. And you know, I have a quote unquote expertise.
Speaker 4: I followed the court. I filed briefs myself. I have
Speaker 4: written a book about the Supreme Court, Supreme disorder, about
Speaker 4: judicial nominations and the politics there. You do your best,
Speaker 4: and the justices in the end can surprise. Oral argument
Speaker 4: is the tip of the iceberg. It's what we see.
Speaker 4: But you know, the briefs are important, and the justices
Speaker 4: discussions and the drafts of the opinions going back and forth.
Speaker 3: So nobody's ever going to give you one hundred percent certainty.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 1: It wasn't long ago that the court struck down Biden's
Speaker 1: student loan forgiveness. And does that factor into this is
Speaker 1: a shadow of the upcoming decision?
Speaker 3: I think it does. I think it does.
Speaker 4: And a lot of commentators have compared it to that
Speaker 4: and and other ways in which the Court has gone
Speaker 4: against the executive brands the last couple of presidencies.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 3: You know, they're they're deferential to a point. Uh.
Speaker 4: And you know that's why the Solicer General, the government's lawyer,
Speaker 4: kept pressing about that this is a foreign policy issue
Speaker 4: because the president typically gets more difference from courts on
Speaker 4: foreign policy national security. But there's this important statute involved. Uh,
Speaker 4: And you know, just like Biden's reading, his administration's reading
Speaker 4: of the relevant statute for student loans or for the
Speaker 4: the vaccine mandate for private employers, the court said that
Speaker 4: that was stretching the statute, reading into it things that
Speaker 4: weren't there.
Speaker 3: It seems to be that's what they're going here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we mentioned the Solicitor General tried to distinguish the
Speaker 1: terrorist and taxes, but you know, the economists and apparently
Speaker 1: several justices see them as is the same thing. And
Speaker 1: how does that how does that work with this court
Speaker 1: and constant social interpretation and also looking at well economic reality,
Speaker 1: because there's a new study out from a highly regarded
Speaker 1: think tank been around a long time and said that
Speaker 1: out of every dollar, American consumers and businesses pay ninety
Speaker 1: six cents on each dollar for the cost of traff
Speaker 1: So we have absorbed the cost of the tariffs. Made
Speaker 1: that change down the line, We don't know, but you know,
Speaker 1: clearly he's losing support among business owners and the American
Speaker 1: people because the high cost of goods with the tariffs.
Speaker 1: You know, the market's obviously watching this very very closely.
Speaker 4: The I mean, the President himself sort of undermines his
Speaker 4: own case because he brags about all the revenue that's
Speaker 4: being brought in by the tariffs, and the legal definition
Speaker 4: of a tax is a legislative action that raises revenue.
Speaker 4: So you know, I'm even less of a good predictor
Speaker 4: of the markets, otherwise I'd be helping other than prostitutional lawyer. Right,
Speaker 4: But it seems like large employers have already large large manufacturers, producers,
Speaker 4: companies already priced in the cost of the tariffs and
Speaker 4: pass them along to consumers. That's why these cases have
Speaker 4: been brought by small businesses. And so how the markets
Speaker 4: will react, I don't know. Is all of this already
Speaker 4: priced in? Will getting rid of the tariff? The uncertainty
Speaker 4: over that, will that harm the markets versus not having
Speaker 4: this extra tech to liberate the tax liberate the markets.
Speaker 3: That's unclear. Plus there's the remedial points.
Speaker 4: So it's not just that the Supreme Court rules the
Speaker 4: tariff is invalid and all of a sudden everybody instantly
Speaker 4: gets a refund. There's a whole big question of how
Speaker 4: you would you reverse that. Does each company that's paid
Speaker 4: a tariff have to make a new claim? Do the
Speaker 4: lower courts have power? Almost certainly, the Supreme Court is
Speaker 4: not going to enter a remedial order. They're going to
Speaker 4: leave that remand that back to the lower course to
Speaker 4: figure out well.
Speaker 1: Even bigger than that, do justices look at the after
Speaker 1: effects of the decision in that you know, the businesses
Speaker 1: have already paid these tariffs. What does that what's the
Speaker 1: refrun process look like, or do we keep their money
Speaker 1: or do they get to the nuances of that or
Speaker 1: they just on this decision and let everyone else sort
Speaker 1: that out after.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a it's a it's a separate issue. There's
Speaker 4: the issue of remedies and there are you know, the
Speaker 4: government when when it was asking for a stay of
Speaker 4: the lower court rule and blocking the tariffs, said oh, well,
Speaker 4: if we turn out to be wrong, we can always
Speaker 4: refund the money. So they kind of hurt their own
Speaker 4: long term interest by by arguing that in the in
Speaker 4: the short term and theory, in this digital age, everyone
Speaker 4: has records of who paid what, and you should be
Speaker 4: able to if there's a court order to for all
Speaker 4: the customs inspectors and whatnot, to just reverse the charge
Speaker 4: and you know, make the make the wire go in
Speaker 4: the other direction, that that should be done. I mean,
Speaker 4: it's it might be more complicated than certain other things,
Speaker 4: but it's not an impossible task.
Speaker 1: Hilly Shapiro, Manhattan Institute on the Supreme Court weighing Trump's
Speaker 1: tariffs right now, and it is it's hanging in the balance.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: The early indication seemed that at least a couple of
Speaker 1: more conservative members of the panel are leaning towards knocking
Speaker 1: this thing down. But we'll see again as they contemplate this.
Speaker 1: And there's also the precedent here too. If the court
Speaker 1: rules against Trump, what does that mean for future presidents
Speaker 1: or parties or who want to use that executive authority
Speaker 1: on economic policies.
Speaker 4: That question came up that if we allow this, would
Speaker 4: a future president be able to declare an international emergency
Speaker 4: for climate change and therefore tax car companies and other
Speaker 4: manufacturers that contribute to climate change. And the Socier General
Speaker 4: said potentially yes. So I don't think that's going to
Speaker 4: sit very well.
Speaker 1: Gillia Shapiro on from Manhattan Institute on Scoontserland Show, seven
Speaker 1: hundred WLW. The Supreme Court three cases announced the sweet decisions.
Speaker 1: Three cases, none of them had to deal with Tariff's.
Speaker 1: That's kind of the big one we're waiting on right now,
Speaker 1: simply because we're starting to feel well, we have been
Speaker 1: feeling the effects of it.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 1: The researchers caught up with it that American consumers are
Speaker 1: response for ninety six percent of all the costs passed
Speaker 1: down to us from this tariff plan. And is it
Speaker 1: worth the pain that we're seeing. That is what we
Speaker 1: decide is consumers, But the Supreme Court is said to
Speaker 1: decide whether that's is entirely legal, and that would be
Speaker 1: a mess to unravel as well.
Speaker 2: Uh, the early.
Speaker 1: Indications, again going back to what November I believe, are
Speaker 1: that the Supreme courts some of the questions asked the
Speaker 1: leans towards knocking this thing down.
Speaker 4: Again, that's the that's the conventional wisdom as we've been discussing.
Speaker 4: But and there are I think polymarket or some some
Speaker 4: there there's some way you can bet on court opinions.
Speaker 3: It might be offshore or something like that.
Speaker 4: So you know, that's not not a bad way of
Speaker 4: checking what the wisdom of clouds might be. But uh,
Speaker 4: you know, the just like in the NFL, the reason
Speaker 4: you know, any given Sunday, anything can happen. And so
Speaker 4: that's why the reason we play these games is you know,
Speaker 4: they could they could take it in a completely different direction.
Speaker 1: All due respect, but you know, we we often defer
Speaker 1: to the pundit class. Like for example, Trump is going
Speaker 1: to you know, Summer is going to strike down gay marriage,
Speaker 1: and of course they went, now, we're not we're not
Speaker 1: doing that. And was that a pleasant surprise. Not really,
Speaker 1: It wasn't a surprise at all that that would that
Speaker 1: would be almost impossible to do out side of your
Speaker 1: scope of what we're talking about here. But I think
Speaker 1: that applies to some degree as well. They're not going
Speaker 1: to go there. You know, the idea that somehow they're
Speaker 1: just going to do everything Trump wants to do is
Speaker 1: it's rather silly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's absolutely right.
Speaker 4: And and there's all these media narratives gend up that
Speaker 4: this is Trump's court and that's just not true. What
Speaker 4: they've been ruling is to allow the president to reorganize
Speaker 4: the executive branch. He's the head of the executive branch.
Speaker 4: He controls it. When he steps over into violating individual
Speaker 4: rights or or or stepping into legislative territory, that's when the.
Speaker 3: Administration has taken its losses.
Speaker 4: And they've been strategic about which case is to to
Speaker 4: bring up to the Supreme Court, which is why they
Speaker 4: have a very high win rate thus far in the
Speaker 4: second Trump administration.
Speaker 1: Yeah, i'd be interesting we're all following this case because
Speaker 1: this is the cornerstone of a second administration, is the tariffs,
Speaker 1: and you know, it's as we said, it's gonna take
Speaker 1: a long time. But if the strikes us down, it
Speaker 1: also gives him cover, I think to politically speaking, if
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court tries to pull back on his what
Speaker 1: he's trying to do here, he has now a little
Speaker 1: bit of cover and excuse going. Well, it would have
Speaker 1: worked if it wasn't for the damn meddling Supreme Court.
Speaker 2: Like scooby doo, that's right, that's right.
Speaker 4: And it also there's two economists are correct that the
Speaker 4: tariff has hurt our.
Speaker 3: Economy, hurt consumers.
Speaker 4: Then you know, then the markets will be up, things
Speaker 4: will be better economically, while he still gets to rail
Speaker 4: against these enemies and to help him politically.
Speaker 3: So even if he might not like it.
Speaker 4: It might be beneficial, especially ahead of the midterms.
Speaker 1: Director of con Social Studies and Senior filthy in Manhattan Institute,
Speaker 1: Ilia Shapiro on this great analysis.
Speaker 2: I appreciate it. Have a wonderful day, my pleasure.
Speaker 3: Scott.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so the court decided three cases.
Speaker 1: This so weak, and I think I saw the next
Speaker 1: time maybe I want to say right around in the February,
Speaker 1: maybe like February twentieth. For some reason, six in my mind,
Speaker 1: their schedule be back on the bench, I believe that
Speaker 1: day and another round of oral arguments, and so that's
Speaker 1: when they'll hear the arguments from next opinion. But regardless,
Speaker 1: we're still waiting for this decision. Supreme Court holds their
Speaker 1: cars very close to the best and these things we
Speaker 1: don't know ahead of time what they're going to rule on,
Speaker 1: if all, we'll find out. So and I know the
Speaker 1: administration wanted to be a quick decision on this one,
Speaker 1: and it's been going on since what November, I believe,
Speaker 1: So yeah, they will do things at their own pace.
Speaker 1: And to iliash point, everyone thinks that because of the
Speaker 1: conservative lean of this court that they're all in Trump's pocket.
Speaker 2: It's just simply not true.
Speaker 1: Because every time they rule something you think is God
Speaker 1: They're just going to give this a Trump and they don't.
Speaker 1: Then people were shocked and surprised. Well, yeah, the Supreme
Speaker 1: Court has always been that way. So as we talk
Speaker 1: about loading the courts and things like that, that's more
Speaker 1: political than it is reality. If you look at the
Speaker 1: results of this thing. Certainly they do lead conservative of
Speaker 1: their decisions, but you know, to the victor belong the spoils.
Speaker 1: If you're in office and you get to a point
Speaker 1: a Supreme Court justice, it's a huge win for not
Speaker 1: only your term but your party.
Speaker 2: That's just how it is. We'll find out how it
Speaker 2: plays out.
Speaker 1: But I keep getting back that study, and it feels
Speaker 1: that way that ninety six cents of every dollar is
Speaker 1: paid for in these terrorists by me and you and
Speaker 1: business to some degree, it can only absorb the.
Speaker 2: Cost so much.
Speaker 1: That's where you're seeing the price things go up, and
Speaker 1: inflation being kind of sticky, it ticked down a little bit,
Speaker 1: and you know, businesses in Wall Street kind of factor
Speaker 1: that in the future, but doesn't make it easier for
Speaker 1: us when you go to the store to get some
Speaker 1: ground beef, make some tacos, and you cringe at the
Speaker 1: price of you know, just simple ground beef. That is
Speaker 1: a problem, inflation and tariffs together making everything more expensive.
Speaker 2: For sure.
Speaker 1: We've got news on the way, of course, the big
Speaker 1: story around around these parts. In the snow that's coming
Speaker 1: late yesterday, I heard, ah, okay, we feel comfortable maybe
Speaker 1: in the three to six inch window, and now we're
Speaker 1: like in the six to ten inch window. And if
Speaker 1: the storm keeps track of this way, we could, you know,
Speaker 1: six to ten maybe a moderate guess. At this point,
Speaker 1: we'll find out what happens. Now it's still yeah, and
Speaker 1: they've hedged thereabouts. I will give the climate terists a
Speaker 1: lot of care credits saying, listen, if the warm pushes
Speaker 1: down or up or wherever the hell of war mare's
Speaker 1: coming in from, I guess from the south, that's going
Speaker 1: to cause more sleep less accumulation. It all depends how breaks.
Speaker 1: We're literally right on that line, as you know in
Speaker 1: the past. So with each passing hour we get a
Speaker 1: little bit more clear what that forecast is going to
Speaker 1: be, because they're extremely accurate when about thirty six hours, thirty six,
Speaker 1: forty eight hours. But outside of that, it's it's kind
Speaker 1: of like a crapshoot to some degree, and the further
Speaker 1: out you are, the bigger crapshoot it is. In this case, though,
Speaker 1: we're kind of getting close to that window where it
Speaker 1: looks like it's almost a guarantee. So have the shovels ready,
Speaker 1: get ready to go. I feel a Kroger run going
Speaker 1: going on today. People probably tomorrow tomorrow, and be like, okay,
Speaker 1: we're really getting this Friday's gonna be diverus.
Speaker 2: Get your milk and batteries now to get through those
Speaker 2: two days.
Speaker 1: Anyway, we'll get a news update in full, forecast traffic
Speaker 1: all that, just to havead Scott sloan on this Thursday morning,
Speaker 1: seven hundred WLW song stills, still's good, sloany here, seven
Speaker 1: hundred WLW all right, awaiting the White Death. The White
Speaker 1: Death is imminent here. Typically, don't we rip on the
Speaker 1: forecasters when they're trying to predict it ten days out
Speaker 1: and there's no way they can accurately do that, But
Speaker 1: when you get into the about forty eight hour model
Speaker 1: and they're pretty damn good, And right now we're getting
Speaker 1: very close to that window, being pretty close to ninety
Speaker 1: percent accuracy there. So the winter Star March are looking
Speaker 1: at six to ten now six to ten and higher
Speaker 1: snow totals can't be rolled out. It just depends on
Speaker 1: where this line is moving, you know, fifty miles either way,
Speaker 1: you still got it. He will get some snow and
Speaker 1: we'll see how extreme it is. But right now, as
Speaker 1: it stands, we are going to get blasted, absolutely blasted.
Speaker 1: Creek Steward at ten oh seven, you may know him.
Speaker 1: He's I call him like, not a survivalist because I
Speaker 1: don't know that. That's kind of cringey preparedness guy. He's
Speaker 1: also with the Weather Channel, so he's a little bit
Speaker 1: more moderate to that thing. I don't need the guys,
Speaker 1: the people who are out there waiting for the apocalypse.
Speaker 1: I'm ready for the I'm ready for it. Like I
Speaker 1: don't know if I die because the apocalypse has come
Speaker 1: in good. I don't need to survive bloodthirsty zombies and
Speaker 1: everything else like nuclear winter, and like, I'm good.
Speaker 2: I'm good.
Speaker 1: You guys handle that. I'm fine on that. It's my time.
Speaker 1: It's my time. It's why I look at it.
Speaker 2: Hopefully.
Speaker 1: It's after the AFC NFC games anyway, so Creek is
Speaker 1: coming up. We'll talk about just preparedness and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: And you know, what are you gonna do? You we're
Speaker 1: stuck at home. So today's the day. Tomorrow's a day
Speaker 1: go to Kroger and load up on your batteries and bread.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be uh, this stands up. It's gonna be
Speaker 1: a good few days for you. So it's always good
Speaker 1: to check that stuff again. You know, you can be
Speaker 1: extreme about it, but yeah, when you go like, wow,
Speaker 1: I guess I should have went the stir because I
Speaker 1: don't have any water, or you know, what do you
Speaker 1: do if the heat goes out?
Speaker 2: Or something like that. They're good questions.
Speaker 1: He's got answers for you anyway, about a half hour
Speaker 1: from now, because it is a topical thing, speaking of which,
Speaker 1: speaking of which, you know, intersecting reality and politics for
Speaker 1: a second. If Governor Andrew Basher of Texas ran for president,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't vote for him for one time, for one
Speaker 1: reason only you go, well, because he's a Democrat.
Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no, no, not at all. He seems
Speaker 2: more of a moderate.
Speaker 1: But the reason I would governor be sure, because this
Speaker 1: guy gets sworn in and it's a non stop chain
Speaker 1: of emergencies he has to govern. I know he has
Speaker 1: no control over this stuff. It just it happens. But
Speaker 1: if that's the kind of luck you're bringing to Kentucky,
Speaker 1: I don't know about the United States of America. One
Speaker 1: year ago, Governor Basher declared the state of emergency for
Speaker 1: the winters storm we had last January, and that very
Speaker 1: well happened again. If this stands up, I would expect
Speaker 1: to occur again. But I was thinking of this this morning.
Speaker 1: I actually had to look it up. Of all the
Speaker 1: disasters and emergencies that Andy Basheer has presided over through
Speaker 1: no fault of his own obviously, you know, and the
Speaker 1: job chooses the man to some degree here. But if
Speaker 1: that's kind of streaky you bring with you, I'm not
Speaker 1: quite sure. We work through a lot right now, you
Speaker 1: go back to it. I mean, he came into office
Speaker 1: from you know, COVID obviously had to do that. And
Speaker 1: then we had tornadoes in twenty twenty one, eighty one
Speaker 1: deaths there and that was in December twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1: In July twenty twenty two, he had the Eastern Kentucky flooding,
Speaker 1: another forty five deaths. There was a one in one
Speaker 1: thousand year rainfall event with over six hundred helicopter rescues.
Speaker 1: Then in twenty twenty five February last year, we had
Speaker 1: the Eastern Kentucky floods where twenty two people died. And
Speaker 1: then in April twenty twenty five we had more flooding
Speaker 1: and thirteen counties there were affected by this, including McCracken
Speaker 1: and Mercer.
Speaker 2: And ohen Hardin counties.
Speaker 1: May twenty twenty four, We had tornadoes in western Kentucky
Speaker 1: in November twenty twenty three, there were the Eastern Kentucky
Speaker 1: wildfires where he declared a state of emergency on November ninth,
Speaker 1: right after being re elected. Or you had thirty one
Speaker 1: active fires burning twenty thousand acres, three hundred plus firefighters
Speaker 1: deployed across the commonwealth and those are just natural. Then
Speaker 1: you had the shooting in Louisville in April of twenty
Speaker 1: twenty three. Five people dead there, so it was a
Speaker 1: mass casualty event. One of his closest friends and senior
Speaker 1: vice president the bank was one of the people who died,
Speaker 1: and he was pretty emotional. Remember that is talking about
Speaker 1: one of his friends being murdered. Horrible thing for the
Speaker 1: governor to go through. We had the Baptist church shooting
Speaker 1: in Lexington, two people killed, three injured there. We had
Speaker 1: the Kentucky State University shooting happening just last year November,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, December, a month ago. He had one student
Speaker 1: killed in the person critically injured. And of course the
Speaker 1: Louisville plane crash ups plane going down as well. All
Speaker 1: of that happening in the Bisher's term. That's a lot going.
Speaker 1: That's a you know, a couple of those things. Not
Speaker 1: for anybody. It was like a steady drumbeat. I'm just
Speaker 1: some people just draw that. I don't know what it is,
Speaker 1: had why it's all happening on his watch, but that
Speaker 1: go damn. So I'm ready for another Andy Bsheer press
Speaker 1: conference where he's wearing the you know, they wear that jacket,
Speaker 1: it says Governor Andy b Sheer, and then they've got like
Speaker 1: the the I don't know what is that, the security
Speaker 1: logo or the Department of Oh my god, the OMG
Speaker 1: logo on it. The governors have that jacket in their arsenal.
Speaker 1: I'm wonder how much they travel with those. The wine
Speaker 1: has it too, So if it's you know, if it's
Speaker 1: a very serious thing, they've got that, they've got the
Speaker 1: it's like a lightweight. This time of year, you think
Speaker 1: you'd want a big I don't know, like the north
Speaker 1: Face parka with the logo on it. But it's like
Speaker 1: the little jacket. It's like the jacket the president has
Speaker 1: on Air Force one. You know, Trump has that jacket,
Speaker 1: says you know, President Trump whatever, and then the presidential
Speaker 1: seal on it. It's the only time they really have
Speaker 1: that jacket I put my I got I got a
Speaker 1: jacket for this. Actually, like my wife Michelle, she's got
Speaker 1: jacket for everything. I got a jacket for that. Going
Speaker 1: to a random I don't know, nk U Norse game,
Speaker 1: I got a coat. What got a hat for that?
Speaker 1: I got a hat. We're good, We're good. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have to ask her about this. I just saw this online.
Speaker 1: She's on eleven thirty this morning TV show Houses the
Speaker 1: famous to you think of the famous houses from TV shows.
Speaker 1: For the first time in almost fifty years, the Fresh
Speaker 1: Prince of bel Air Mansion is now for sale thirty
Speaker 1: million dollars.
Speaker 2: And I didn't know this.
Speaker 1: It's actually about two blocks away from where OJ didn't
Speaker 1: kill his wife in Brentwood, California. It was built nineteen
Speaker 1: thirty seven, six bedrooms, seven and a half bath, ten
Speaker 1: thousand square feet. It's a corner lot and the lot
Speaker 1: itself is about forty thousand square feet.
Speaker 2: That's pretty big.
Speaker 1: And it's actually I guess the footprint is a little
Speaker 1: smaller than the Banks family home from the show and
Speaker 1: that one's said. I have ten bedrooms and four and
Speaker 1: a half bathrooms, but that's a pretty sonsable state. They're
Speaker 1: thirty mil for that bad boy, thirty mil, which I
Speaker 1: think up to this point has been AIRBNBD.
Speaker 2: I think it was like a verbo.
Speaker 1: You could actually stay in the Fresh Prince House, the
Speaker 1: French Prince Mansion, I should say. I'm not sure if
Speaker 1: that includes the Stinky Cabby or not. I have no idea.
Speaker 1: It's like the folks here in Sincey where they had
Speaker 1: the Seinfeld apartment that they rent. I think that's that's
Speaker 1: still fantas. The Friend's apartment and the Seinfeld department.
Speaker 2: They still have those.
Speaker 1: It's a couple of years ago, I'm sure they do,
Speaker 1: probably making good bank off that. You gotta have a gimmick.
Speaker 1: You got to have a hook, as Blues Traveler said,
Speaker 1: it's the hook that brings you back. Also happening today
Speaker 1: the House Oversight Committee moving forward with the impeachment. I
Speaker 1: don't know what's going on. It's hard to say. Someone
Speaker 1: called it impeachment yesterday. I think that's quite right because
Speaker 1: you're no longer president. But I've just called the prosecution
Speaker 1: bill bill and Hillary Clinton for condemned to Congress, and
Speaker 1: this is over the Epstein files, and you know they
Speaker 1: subpoened him to testify and he said, I'll send you
Speaker 1: a letter instead, And it harkens back to the ODA
Speaker 1: when he was in office. Even it's a dancing or
Speaker 1: you're a lawyer kind of know what the law is.
Speaker 1: You know, if they say you've got to you gotta testify,
Speaker 1: you gotta testify, you can show up and you do that.
Speaker 1: And I think when you know nearly half of the
Speaker 1: Democrats on the Oversight Committee voted with the Republicans on
Speaker 1: this one, which shocked a lot of people, including the leader,
Speaker 1: to hold them in contemptive congress. I think there's I
Speaker 1: think that's a smart move, putting politics aside.
Speaker 3: Go.
Speaker 2: No, we want, we want answers.
Speaker 1: Back to yesterday, we're we're talking a little bit about
Speaker 1: the guy I'm talking to this with Julie blockare crusher
Speaker 1: about the dude who was protesting protesting he yelled pedophile
Speaker 1: protector the president at in Detroit when he present was
Speaker 1: touring a auto factor there and UW workers suspended for that.
Speaker 1: So I was a job topic. But you know, same thing.
Speaker 1: It's like people want answers with this, We we don't want. Ah,
Speaker 1: there's nothing to see here. We're going to have this
Speaker 1: big exposa and then you have this report and everything
Speaker 1: and what's in there A nothing? Yeah, well you're going
Speaker 1: to release that. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, no, no, we're
Speaker 1: not gonna And then enough people were outraged by this,
Speaker 1: like okay, yeah, we're going to release stuff, and now
Speaker 1: the DJ is like, well, we're just going to redact
Speaker 1: pretty much everything other than pretty much only thing left
Speaker 1: our conjunction, you know, And there's a lot of hands here.
Speaker 1: I don't see any names, any details. Yeah, well, at
Speaker 1: some point you really have to release that information. That's
Speaker 1: your campaign on. Let's do it. But and I get
Speaker 1: why Clinton's fighting because he feels he's a Democrat, He's
Speaker 1: the one getting There's a lot of Republicans there too,
Speaker 1: So it looks like, I don't know, it looks like
Speaker 1: all the wealthy, rich people who are both on the
Speaker 1: left and the right, and a much of other famous
Speaker 1: folks supporting either party seem to be swept up in this.
Speaker 1: And so if you have the reports out, it seems
Speaker 1: I don't think it's issue had that it's national security.
Speaker 1: That's what Nixon tried with Watergate, and it wasn't. It
Speaker 1: was just like we're breaking into this place because of
Speaker 1: the Pentagon papers, and we want to find out about
Speaker 1: the guy Daniel Olsberg who wrote the Pentagon papers and
Speaker 1: get dirt on him. And he's saying, Okay, that's not
Speaker 1: national security, that's an election. That's you trying to get
Speaker 1: elected or reelected, as the case may be. So I
Speaker 1: don't think it applies here too way, way too broad. Anyway,
Speaker 1: we'll find out what happens with Bill Clinton on a
Speaker 1: Second Amendment kind of topic here. I think this is small,
Speaker 1: but I think it's important. A lot of people are like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, here we go to the courts. This
Speaker 1: is the worst thing ever, just to show you we're
Speaker 1: going to protect these cop killers, which are cops anyway,
Speaker 1: that are killing people. And I think this is going
Speaker 1: to give the folks, i'd imagine in Minnesota a lot
Speaker 1: more ammunition to use against ice to see.
Speaker 6: How they do.
Speaker 1: They just protect the cops, they protect, you know, the
Speaker 1: fin blue line of the courts, and it's all a
Speaker 1: conspiracy to protect bad cops. I'm talking, of course about Uvalde,
Speaker 1: Texas and Adrian Gonzalez. He was a cop who delayed
Speaker 1: his response in the rob Elementary School shooting back in
Speaker 1: May of twenty twenty two in Uvaldi, and after one
Speaker 1: hour of deliberations, the jury returned innoculate guilty verdict on
Speaker 1: all twenty nine counts of child and days. Remember his
Speaker 1: response was it was you know, took seventy seven minutes
Speaker 1: for law enforcement could counter assault the shooter in which
Speaker 1: nineteen students and two teachers were killed.
Speaker 2: And you know that, I'm.
Speaker 1: Sure today, well, they got to get the protest done
Speaker 1: because it's going to snow. This is one thing to
Speaker 1: shut the protest down is sub zero temperatures in a blizzard.
Speaker 1: That'll do it. You've got to be really dedicated to
Speaker 1: be out there protesting in this kind of weather. But
Speaker 1: relative to Uvaldi, I look at that went so, what
Speaker 1: they're saying is this is going to be an indictment
Speaker 1: against police again right now. Now what they're saying is
Speaker 1: police officers really don't have a duty to help you.
Speaker 1: That's what I took out of that, going okay, and
Speaker 1: we've seen the court's side with that before, going yeah,
Speaker 1: really the cops just kind of show up and it
Speaker 1: happened in Florida.
Speaker 2: Too, like yeah, you know, we're really not we really don't.
Speaker 1: Have to protect you. I mean, that's kind of our
Speaker 1: modoling is what we do. But how far are you
Speaker 1: willing to go risk your neck when you got a
Speaker 1: lot of shooter in there and little backup, and so
Speaker 1: we need a plan. And I get it, I get it.
Speaker 1: But if this, if people are using this to go
Speaker 1: and essentially denounce law enforcement, I don't look at it that.
Speaker 1: I look at this as going at the end of
Speaker 1: the day, it's up you to protect you. Another way
Speaker 1: to examine this is taking the segment of an entirely
Speaker 1: and go, Okay, we have what six to ten to
Speaker 1: twelve or more or inches of snow coming in this weekend.
Speaker 1: We've seen that's certainly not a natural disaster. But we've
Speaker 1: seen natural disaster in the past where people expect the state,
Speaker 1: the government to show up and rescue us immediately. You know,
Speaker 1: flash floods and the light come to my hurricanes come
Speaker 1: to mind, things like that, Well, where the hell are
Speaker 1: that they should be here? Like, No, that's not how
Speaker 1: this works. It takes time for people to do things,
Speaker 1: especially the government. Music glacial speeds. The first few days,
Speaker 1: it's incumbent upon you to make sure you can take
Speaker 1: care of you and maybe if you have enough to
Speaker 1: take care of those around your neighbors.
Speaker 2: Et cetera.
Speaker 1: Right, so when disaster hits, you know, we have to
Speaker 1: see these commercials and we see presidents. I mentioned Bashir
Speaker 1: with his governor's tragedy, his tragedy slash emergency jacket that
Speaker 1: he wears that all governors have. But it takes time
Speaker 1: to mobilizing all that stuff in. You know, for the
Speaker 1: first few hours, for a few days, you may have
Speaker 1: to take care of yourself. And it gets back to
Speaker 1: that central tenant. We can't farm all that stuff up.
Speaker 1: I think people expect law enforcement to be there when
Speaker 1: the bad guys are there. Sometimes they get lucky and
Speaker 1: apprehend them in the act. Sometimes they get lucky and
Speaker 1: stop them before something bad happens. But all too often,
Speaker 1: almost exclusively, they respond to tragedies that already occurred and
Speaker 1: then try to investigate and find out and bring to
Speaker 1: justice those responsible. To be proactive and stopping serious crime
Speaker 1: is shooting an example, extremely rare. You know, we need
Speaker 1: a lot more police officers and investigators to do that.
Speaker 1: The fear you have Cincinnati, you just simply respond from
Speaker 1: run to run to run, and there's no time to
Speaker 1: be proactive. It's all reactive if you don't have enough
Speaker 1: police officers, if you don't have enough investigators. And so,
Speaker 1: I mean a lesson from Uvalde to me is that
Speaker 1: not everything is preventable. We're not going to be able
Speaker 1: to stop all bad guys. We're just not going to
Speaker 1: am I saying we should accept young kids from dying. No,
Speaker 1: But I think what's reasonable, though, is to try and
Speaker 1: mitigate that, to try and reduce that as much possible.
Speaker 1: And certainly mental health comes into that. Gun's come into that,
Speaker 1: policy comes into that. Human nature comes in that as well.
Speaker 1: You know, leaving the doors propped open, her door is
Speaker 1: unlocked or broken, lot, whatever it might be. There's only
Speaker 1: so many doors you can put up. If someone is
Speaker 1: hell bent on committing a mass casual event like this,
Speaker 1: they're going to find a way around that security. There's
Speaker 1: just no doubt about it. Literally, the only way you
Speaker 1: can protect yourself. The thin line is, and we did
Speaker 1: this in Ohio not long ago, is that like we
Speaker 1: allow teachers to carry guns. Now, we've had that law
Speaker 1: in Ohio for a long time, and you know what
Speaker 1: tells me it works is the fact we haven't had
Speaker 1: one occurrence where a teacher who is armed in a
Speaker 1: school has allowed the weapon the fall in the hands
Speaker 1: of a kid and shoot someone. I think there's been
Speaker 1: some cases where the kid has discovered the gun and
Speaker 1: the like and nothing bad happened. But you know, the
Speaker 1: idea was these teachers are going to bring guns in
Speaker 1: school to start shooting their own students for day. It's
Speaker 1: like pilots. We can't ar on pilots. Why well, because
Speaker 1: they may take hostages. They're the ones lie in the plane.
Speaker 1: They already have you hostage. They don't need a gun.
Speaker 1: AKA died eleven right. Uh, they could do these things
Speaker 1: if they want. There's been cases in history where the
Speaker 1: pilots have taken a plane and flown to another country
Speaker 1: with it. It's like, I'm the pilot. I could do
Speaker 1: what the hell I wanted to. I don't need a
Speaker 1: gun to do this. And so you know, and as
Speaker 1: someone who's are at pro Secondmendment, I see it that way.
Speaker 1: I see this Uvaldi thing is you know, the officer
Speaker 1: didn't respond. He's a coward. And I'd say it is
Speaker 1: like again, cops look at this and go, here's how
Speaker 1: much money I make? And I know I took an oath,
Speaker 1: but how far am I willing to go? And some
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes you have heroes are willing to put
Speaker 1: their put their bodies in the way of others harming
Speaker 1: and that that's why they're That's why you know, we
Speaker 1: should use that word hero very restrictively because I think
Speaker 1: that's thrown around too much. But when someone does that,
Speaker 1: you know, a teacher, for example, well taking a bullet
Speaker 1: for their student, that's a hero, right, But should have
Speaker 1: come to that And you know, the the the idea
Speaker 1: that we don't allow teachers arm themselves. I mean, this
Speaker 1: is more evidence of that to me. Instead of going
Speaker 1: we got to get rid of the gun that the
Speaker 1: problem is the guns. We get rid of the guns. We're
Speaker 1: not gonna do that. We've got too many and too
Speaker 1: many people that use them responsibly, that's the problem. And
Speaker 1: when they're irresponsible, I think sometimes we don't go far enough.
Speaker 1: And there's another case out there you may have heard
Speaker 1: today that involves an eleven year old kid from Pennsylvania
Speaker 1: who his dad took away his Nintendo switch, told him
Speaker 1: to go to bed, and the kid came in his
Speaker 1: bedroom and put a bullet in his head and.
Speaker 2: Go my god, that's horrible.
Speaker 1: I don't know if eleven year at that age were
Speaker 1: making good decisions and going I'm just mad at my
Speaker 1: dad instead of just you know, yelling at him or
Speaker 1: throwing a tantrum. I shot him. Fortunately, that's extremely rare,
Speaker 1: and that's why this made news. But how is how
Speaker 1: does an eleven year old kid have access to a
Speaker 1: weapon like that? You know, that's not the gun. That
Speaker 1: is a decision of a parent to leave it where
Speaker 1: an unloaded weapon or a loaded weapon is in grasp
Speaker 1: an eleven year old kid. I may teach an eleven
Speaker 1: year old kid the basics about hunting or target shooting,
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna let nothing them have free access to
Speaker 1: a gun. Sorry, So you know, don't cloud the argument
Speaker 1: with things like that. Got to get a news update
Speaker 1: when a return of the show Creek Stewardess here I
Speaker 1: mentioned we are experiencing the White Death is coming in
Speaker 1: six to ten twelve, we may get fourteen feet of snow.
Speaker 1: How do you navigate through all that stuff if indeed
Speaker 1: we have a natural disaster? I mentioned Andy Basheer, And
Speaker 1: if you live in Kentucky especially, maybe you want to
Speaker 1: look because we've got a streak down there. You may
Speaker 1: want to listen to this next segment coming up. He's
Speaker 1: with the Weather Channel and is a influencer in the
Speaker 1: realm of well survival. But I think it's more about
Speaker 1: just being prepared preparedness, let's call it that. Right after
Speaker 1: news update full fourcast seconds away on the Home of
Speaker 1: the Red seven hundred w WT Cincinnati, What is up, friend,
Speaker 1: Scott Slim Show, seven hundred w LW. As we get
Speaker 1: ready for you know what, the white death is coming?
Speaker 1: Driving in the driving this morning, completely clear by the way,
Speaker 1: and I saw people driving like there was snow on
Speaker 1: the ground already. I saw one person with their flashers on.
Speaker 1: Maybe they're having some sort of medical or auto emergency.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but that is preparing. I'm getting ready
Speaker 1: to drive like a knucklehead. The storm is going to
Speaker 1: be latest models, fry. I think there's like an American
Speaker 1: and European model on this one. I tend to like
Speaker 1: the American models a little bit, a little bit bustier.
Speaker 1: Wait what what so catch Mark is over nine is
Speaker 1: saying that like six to ten inches right now, and
Speaker 1: as we get closer to Saturday, which you're fairly closer
Speaker 1: right now inside that twenty four to thirty six hour window.
Speaker 1: You're pretty they're pretty dead on accurate know what's going
Speaker 1: to happen at this point. So we're expect in six
Speaker 1: to ten right now, and of course sub zero temperatures
Speaker 1: as well. It is a snow crisis. The white Death
Speaker 1: is here in Cincinnati. And when you roll home and
Speaker 1: Jim Cantore is set up on your front lawn, damn it.
Speaker 2: You know it's bad our old.
Speaker 1: Buddy Craig Stewart back on the show this morning from
Speaker 1: the aforementioned Weather Channel, and he's a preparedness influenced, revival influencer.
Speaker 2: Creek what do you know, Well.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what.
Speaker 7: That sounds like an end of the world type. So
Speaker 7: it's always a good idea to carry an emergency kit
Speaker 7: in your car for a variety events in the Midwest.
Speaker 7: Snow is obviously a huge concern, huge here. Maybe not
Speaker 7: so much one inch, but it happened, and there are
Speaker 7: there are backups, and you know, we just saw where
Speaker 7: was it in Virginia? Yeah, High ninety five right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 7: that was a.
Speaker 2: Couple of years ago. But still that's crazy though.
Speaker 3: Who would have.
Speaker 7: Thought that would have ever happened.
Speaker 1: So, but again, didn't they get like a couple of
Speaker 1: feet of snow ten inches of snow and it hit
Speaker 1: suddenly and it was like four or five inches an hour.
Speaker 1: I know in the Northeast, you know they got a
Speaker 1: couple of feet of snow in some spots maybe where
Speaker 1: you are. But you know, in Cincinnati, Ohio, we get
Speaker 1: like five six inches of snow. That's a huge weather
Speaker 1: event for us. And it's not like we live in
Speaker 1: Atlanta or Dallas or Memphis. In Cincinnati, we do get snow.
Speaker 1: We get several inches of snow a year. But but
Speaker 1: when we watched the people on TV doing live reports
Speaker 1: from the Salt Dome and talk about making sure you've
Speaker 1: got bottled water and snacks with you in a blanket,
Speaker 1: and make sure your cell phones charged, it's it's in
Speaker 1: They're forecasting maybe two inches of snow. It's a little
Speaker 1: bit daclobs. Don't people then tend to go, you know what, what,
Speaker 1: am I stupid? I don't need to bring bottled water
Speaker 1: and snacks with me if there's two inches of snow
Speaker 1: on the highway, if I'm traveling in the off country
Speaker 1: or I'm in Maysville, Kentucky on a roller road, maybe
Speaker 1: if they're getting seven inches of snow. But you know,
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati, inside the belt Wave, we're getting two inches.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna die and be stranded in two inches
Speaker 1: of snow. It's just it's not gonna happen. Or either
Speaker 1: that or the world's worst driver. And I think that
Speaker 1: Darwin is calling the herd if that's the case.
Speaker 6: Yeah, who knows.
Speaker 7: But regardless of how much snow might be coming, it's
Speaker 7: always a great idea to have an emergency kit in
Speaker 7: your car with some with some extra clothes, some walking
Speaker 7: shoes that may not be your work shoes, and some
Speaker 7: power bars, some snack bars, just really common sense type,
Speaker 7: just really common sense type stuff for a vehicle. Now,
Speaker 7: being being trapped in your house or for an uncertain
Speaker 7: amount of time, now that's a whole different conversation all
Speaker 7: together with an entirely unique set of UH preparedness steps
Speaker 7: from food to heating and water and ways to manage
Speaker 7: sanitation and everything. So, you know, being trapped in your
Speaker 7: car and being being stuck at home for a while
Speaker 7: are two certainly different circumstances.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so with a storm, we're going to have ice
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a little snow, and if you're out
Speaker 1: and your driving, maybe you get stuck. We've seen this before, though,
Speaker 1: people getting trapped in their cars. I think you mentioned
Speaker 1: that thing out in Virginia not long ago, where people
Speaker 1: are stuck in their car for ten fifteen hours at
Speaker 1: a time. I mean, you know, I look at the
Speaker 1: first ten hours as bonus time away from my wife,
Speaker 1: like a little vacation. After that, maybe I get a
Speaker 1: little bit bored. But you know, I figure I got
Speaker 1: my phone, I probably got a charger. Hopefully I got
Speaker 1: a full tank of gas. What's the strategy. Let's say
Speaker 1: you're stuck somewhere and you got a quarter tank of gas?
Speaker 2: What should you do? How do you preserve that?
Speaker 1: Because you got to worry about heat, but you also
Speaker 1: don't want to run a gas well.
Speaker 7: In cold weather environments. You definitely want to run that
Speaker 7: run that run that vehicle intermittently throughout the you know,
Speaker 7: throughout the time that you might be stuck, and that
Speaker 7: is probably when you would be tapping into some of
Speaker 7: those preps that you made in your vehicle ahead of time.
Speaker 7: And I can guarantee you one thing that every single
Speaker 7: person in stuff on that I ninety five situation. They
Speaker 7: all none of them ever thought in a million years
Speaker 7: that that would happen, but it did. And that's and
Speaker 7: that's the and that's the common theme that I think
Speaker 7: is the big takeaway is that you know, so oftentimes
Speaker 7: disasters strike to people who who never saw them coming.
Speaker 7: And the fact of the matter is is that they
Speaker 7: happen all the time to to people all over, in
Speaker 7: all walks of life, in every in every state, and
Speaker 7: every circumstance, and it's just it's just a reality in
Speaker 7: our lives these days. You can you know, I have
Speaker 7: a saying that it's not if, but when you're going
Speaker 7: to be faced with natural disaster one day, and and
Speaker 7: I believe.
Speaker 3: That to be true.
Speaker 1: Kreik Stewards on the show Creek is with the Weather
Speaker 1: Channel and the author of the disaster Ready Home, a
Speaker 1: step by step emergency for pared orniessmantle for sheltering in
Speaker 1: place now generally in the Midwest. That's why I love
Speaker 1: living in Cincinnati. When we talk about maybe weather events,
Speaker 1: the biggest thing we got to worry about is an
Speaker 1: inch or two of snow, but mainly tornadoes.
Speaker 2: There's really not you can do.
Speaker 1: You know, we talk about hurricane disaster preparedness or you know,
Speaker 1: living off the grid or something like that. Those aren't
Speaker 1: your wildfires, man. But you know, in the event of
Speaker 1: a tornado, there's not a lot you can There's nothing
Speaker 1: you can do to prepare a head for that, can you,
Speaker 1: Because if you get your house gets hit by a tornado,
Speaker 1: that kit that you made is probably gone.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you're right as far as the tornado goes. And
Speaker 7: that and that would be a circumstance where you'd really
Speaker 7: be leaning in on what's called a bug out bag,
Speaker 7: which is a seventy two hour disaster survival kit that
Speaker 7: you would grab in the event of an evacuation. And
Speaker 7: people use bug out bags and disaster survival kits all
Speaker 7: the time when they have to evacuate. And so we
Speaker 7: think about the same type of supplies in a bug
Speaker 7: out bag that we might have in our home, but
Speaker 7: only on a smaller scale. So we want to be
Speaker 7: able to last for three days if we absolutely had to.
Speaker 7: So we want all the food, water, and tools and
Speaker 7: supplies and important paperwork, especially in tornado territory, you want
Speaker 7: to make sure that you've got your important papers especially
Speaker 7: ready to grab to put into your bug out bag,
Speaker 7: because if something does happen to your home, whether it's
Speaker 7: a wildfire or a tornado, and you lose all of
Speaker 7: those important documents, it becomes exponentially more difficult to.
Speaker 3: Put your life back together.
Speaker 7: Interesting, So just that one step alone, grabbing those important
Speaker 7: documents and stuffing them into your bug out bag last
Speaker 7: minute in the event of an evacuation, can make a
Speaker 7: huge difference in your life should.
Speaker 3: Something like that happen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it makes sense.
Speaker 1: Cash probably that medics whatever, you know, your prescriptions, that
Speaker 1: kind of stuff.
Speaker 2: But most people don't think that.
Speaker 1: I remember right after nine to eleven, that was the
Speaker 1: fear that you know, people were hoarding things like plastic
Speaker 1: sheeting and tape and having a safe room and getting
Speaker 1: their bug out bag, writing all this stuff, and then
Speaker 1: we kind of lost interest because we never think it's
Speaker 1: going to happen.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I mean I think I think that's a
Speaker 7: common that's a common mentality with you know, most people
Speaker 7: who experience a disaster is you know, it's never going
Speaker 7: to happen to me, but but it does, you know,
Speaker 7: it does. It's just it's the reality. And when I
Speaker 7: talk about disaster, Scott, you know, I'm talking about the
Speaker 7: ones that actually happened on a regular basis. You know,
Speaker 7: I'm not talking about Yellowstone explosion or an alien in
Speaker 7: baigion or anything like that. You know, I'm talking about
Speaker 7: the real.
Speaker 1: Stuff that happened, which is which is why I'm having
Speaker 1: you on Creek Stewart because you know, I mean, it's
Speaker 1: not like, you know, you're a you know, end of
Speaker 1: the world apocalyptic survivalist kind of guy. Right where you're
Speaker 1: you're preparing for armageddon, nuclear winter. You know, the kind
Speaker 1: of people that listen to Bill cunningham Sunday Night Show
Speaker 1: here on seven hundred WRW, or they're buying pounds of
Speaker 1: gold and fifty five gallon drums of freeze dried line
Speaker 1: of beans for the for the apocalypse because they want
Speaker 1: to survive the apocalypse. And then you look at the
Speaker 1: people who do that and I go, I don't know
Speaker 1: if you're you're gonna be a good representation of breeding
Speaker 1: in the kind of people. I'm just going to die
Speaker 1: when it when it comes. I don't really care too
Speaker 1: much about fifty five gallon drums. If I'm gonna eat,
Speaker 1: if I'm going to need nothing but a diet of
Speaker 1: purified water and line of beans and sitting on piles
Speaker 1: of gold. Uh, so that I can emerge like a
Speaker 1: like a cockroach from the end times. I don't know
Speaker 1: if I want to be the person replicating society. I'll
Speaker 1: be honest with you. I don't think I want to
Speaker 1: live through that. I'm good to check out.
Speaker 7: Yeah, So it's definitely a lot more practical approach to
Speaker 7: to think about the disasters that actually happen and and
Speaker 7: some of those disasters do keep us inside for at
Speaker 7: least a short period of time, and being prepared, being
Speaker 7: prepared to deal with those circumstances from food and water
Speaker 7: and heating and you know, off grid cooking and uh,
Speaker 7: dealing with human waste for at least a short period
Speaker 7: of time a few days, possibly even a few weeks.
Speaker 7: I mean this day and age, having those pressed in
Speaker 7: place is no longer a conversation that he had in
Speaker 7: the basement amongst preppers, I mean, especially since this whole
Speaker 7: pandemic popped off the past couple of years. You know,
Speaker 7: this is a conversation that you know, you're really average
Speaker 7: person is having, Like it made a lot of people
Speaker 7: really think about, you know, do I have the things
Speaker 7: at home that I need at home.
Speaker 3: Should I have to.
Speaker 5: You know, thin for myself for a while.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you bring up an interesting point too,
Speaker 1: because you talk about, you know, you need you need air,
Speaker 1: you need heat, you need water, you all these things.
Speaker 2: You need food and then you're good.
Speaker 1: No one ever, when they're hunkered down in their end
Speaker 1: of the world bunker creek Stewart, I've never seen them
Speaker 1: worry about the biggest problem with that, and that is
Speaker 1: human waste. Dealing with the human waste problem right there,
Speaker 1: because I think you'll agree with me. You can only
Speaker 1: hold it for so long, you know, I mean, And
Speaker 1: I think by the way you talk about muscle building
Speaker 1: this time of year, I'm gonna get on a plan,
Speaker 1: go to the gym, workout, build my biceps, triceps, lats,
Speaker 1: all those things. I think the sphincter is the most
Speaker 1: underrated muscle the whole body.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 7: Well, let me solve that problem for you once and
Speaker 7: for all. It's going to cost you about twenty bucks. Okay,
Speaker 7: You're going to go to your local hardware store and
Speaker 7: grab a five gallon bucket, and then on Amazon you're
Speaker 7: going to order a snap on five gallon bucket toilet
Speaker 7: seats for about fifteen dollars, and then you're going to
Speaker 7: go to your local hardware store, your local wood shop,
Speaker 7: and after the leftover saw dust four in about one
Speaker 7: inch of saw dust in the bottom of that bucket,
Speaker 7: go number one and number two right on top, and
Speaker 7: when you're done, cover it back up with sawdust about
Speaker 7: another inch or so, and that bucket's going to slowly
Speaker 7: filled up, and once it gets to the top, you
Speaker 7: just put a solid lid on top, slide it over
Speaker 7: in the corner of your shed or your yard, and
Speaker 7: in a couple of months that is going to be
Speaker 7: one hundred percent composted.
Speaker 3: Humaneure.
Speaker 7: That simple solution right there can safely contain and deal
Speaker 7: with humid waste that otherwise could potentially be a very
Speaker 7: dangerous scenario if you're trapped at home for an uncertain
Speaker 7: period of time.
Speaker 1: Even with the sawdust an inch or to of sawdust
Speaker 1: on top of your number one and number two, are
Speaker 1: there unpleasant odors that arise even if the uplid is
Speaker 1: locked down. Un Let's say, next time you go, does
Speaker 1: it smell like sawdust or worse?
Speaker 5: It is?
Speaker 7: It is shocking how the sawdust will trap any of
Speaker 7: those odors inside. It is not a disgusting operation. It
Speaker 7: is not stinky. It is surprisingly clean and effective. Composting
Speaker 7: toilets have been used for gezo I mean hunt thousands
Speaker 7: of years a different parts of the world, and quite frankly,
Speaker 7: you'll probably wonder why in the world did we move
Speaker 7: the flush toilet to begin with.
Speaker 2: That's a good I mean, that's a that's an interesting premise.
Speaker 1: However, the problem with that, though, is you know you
Speaker 1: could do it every once in a while. Now I
Speaker 1: have a wood shop and I do, and I know
Speaker 1: what you're talking about with the sawdust, because when you know,
Speaker 1: the first thing you learn in first grade, when you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know when when a little bosifis yacts up
Speaker 1: your spoiled milk that he drank on a dare and
Speaker 1: if the janitor comes and thrust through sawdust on it,
Speaker 1: and it like takes care of everything the smell, I
Speaker 1: wipe it up. Everything is good. The fact of the
Speaker 1: matter is that the five gallon bucket, though, is too
Speaker 1: low to the ground for people of a certain age
Speaker 1: to be able to get down and get back up again.
Speaker 1: We need taller five gallon buckets, don't.
Speaker 7: You think, Yeah, well, you know what, I've got a
Speaker 7: solution for that too. They make those kind of bold
Speaker 7: out potty chairs nice and you can actually just fold.
Speaker 3: One of those five gallon bucket.
Speaker 7: It's gonna you know, it's gonna be a it's gonna
Speaker 7: break the bank for about forty five dollars instead of
Speaker 7: twenty not bad.
Speaker 1: How much food and water you should you should the
Speaker 1: average I'm not talking here in Cincinnati, OHI. I'm not
Speaker 1: talking about some god forsaken place like uh, Sri Lanka
Speaker 1: or the plains of Africa or Pittsburgh. I'm in Cincinnati, Ohio,
Speaker 1: Creek Stewart, so, uh, you know this isn't in the
Speaker 1: far off regions. I got I have stuff accessible. That said,
Speaker 1: how much stuff do I need to have around just
Speaker 1: in case? I mean, so, we got significant amount of snow,
Speaker 1: we got ice, we got some zero temperatures. That's all
Speaker 1: in play. But what do I need like a day's
Speaker 1: where of stuff? Yeah, I already bought all the milk
Speaker 1: and Branda Kroger.
Speaker 5: So well, it's a great question.
Speaker 7: So FEMA recommends two weeks, and I believe that's an
Speaker 7: absolute bare minimum of two weeks worth of food. So
Speaker 7: there's a popular phrase that America is about nine meals
Speaker 7: away from anarchy, and what that means is that your
Speaker 7: average American has about nine meals worth of food in
Speaker 7: their home right now, and it's just not enough. So
Speaker 7: two weeks absolute minimum. I'd like to see most people
Speaker 7: be prepared with around a month's worth of backup food
Speaker 7: and water. And I can give you some really great
Speaker 7: pointers for getting there where you don't have to change
Speaker 7: your lifestyle. It's very simple and really really easy on
Speaker 7: the budget.
Speaker 2: All right, So real quick, how do you do? What
Speaker 2: are you talking about?
Speaker 5: Okay?
Speaker 7: So with the food department, you make a list of
Speaker 7: your top twenty the top ten or twenty items that
Speaker 7: you eat all the time, okay, and you want to
Speaker 7: make sure these items have a shelf life of about
Speaker 7: one to three years. So we're looking at the items
Speaker 7: on the inner aisles of grocery stores. So can goods,
Speaker 7: dried pastas, box meals. And when you get that lift,
Speaker 7: you want to on your next trip to the grocery store,
Speaker 7: you want to buy a few extra items of those
Speaker 7: items on that lift, and you want to do that
Speaker 7: every time you go to the grocery store. And so
Speaker 7: over the course of five or six trips to the
Speaker 7: grocery store, you are beginning to build what we call
Speaker 7: long term food storage pantry. It's going to put those
Speaker 7: items in a closet or on a shelf in the basement,
Speaker 7: or in an extra room, and as you run out
Speaker 7: of them in the kitchen, because you know you already
Speaker 7: eat them, you're going to just.
Speaker 3: Pull those in.
Speaker 7: It's called rotation. Rotation from our long term food storage pantry,
Speaker 7: and that's the easiest way to build up two weeks,
Speaker 7: three weeks, one month worth of food that you know
Speaker 7: you're gonna eat.
Speaker 1: Pretty easy. Yeah, you just rotate it down. New stock
Speaker 1: goes to the basement and in the front of the
Speaker 1: line goes upstairs.
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, okay, I got it.
Speaker 7: Got and you you eat, you buy it, you store
Speaker 7: what you eat, and you eat what you store. Versus
Speaker 7: this idea of going to the grocery store and stocking
Speaker 7: up on something because it's on sale, and then you
Speaker 7: just end up with a big shelf full of limejello
Speaker 7: that is just.
Speaker 3: Gonna go away.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: What about water? What about drinking?
Speaker 1: I mean, you got enough if you had to, you
Speaker 1: can drink water from the tank, not the bowl, but
Speaker 1: the tank of your toilet, there's a couple of gallons there,
Speaker 1: depending on how many toilets you have, plus the pipes in
Speaker 1: the house another maybe five gallons.
Speaker 2: So you got more water than you think.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's right, But we want we want a real
Speaker 7: plan in place. So the first thing people need to
Speaker 7: understand is that the average American uses over eighty gallons
Speaker 7: of water per day. Okay, that's a lot of We
Speaker 7: are very dependent on water in all facets of our lives.
Speaker 3: So the very.
Speaker 7: Minimum that you want to be able to get away
Speaker 7: with is two gallons of water per person per day,
Speaker 7: and you want to have that in fresh storage, whether
Speaker 7: it's bottled water or gall judge, you want to have
Speaker 7: two gallons per person per day to get you through
Speaker 7: about two weeks. Okay, it's a little unrealistic for most
Speaker 7: people to store more water than that. Okay, if you
Speaker 7: buy the water at a grocery store, it's going to
Speaker 7: have a shelf life of up to five years, so
Speaker 7: you don't have to worry about it going bad anytime soon.
Speaker 7: Just put it away and forget about it, just.
Speaker 3: In case you ever use it.
Speaker 7: But on top of fresh water storage, so that's super simple.
Speaker 3: Anybody can do that.
Speaker 7: On top of fresh water storage, you want to have
Speaker 7: a filter in place. The one I recommend is called
Speaker 7: a big burkie. It is a gravity fed filter that
Speaker 7: will solve all of the problems you could ever think
Speaker 7: of when it comes to bad things in water. Bacteria,
Speaker 7: protozoon syss viruses, chlorine, plastics, you know anything. You can
Speaker 7: imagine the thin water you're that big burkey's going to
Speaker 7: filter it out. And so if you have a filter,
Speaker 7: then there's a lot of water down there.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, there's all kinds of stuff.
Speaker 7: I mean, heck, you could go to the Ohio River
Speaker 7: and pour it into your big burkey and it would
Speaker 7: be totally clean to drink coming out the other side.
Speaker 7: So investing in a filter not only for daily use.
Speaker 7: I mean heck, you'd be shocked if you knew what
Speaker 7: was in your.
Speaker 2: Oh I believe it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know a lot of people use
Speaker 1: the Brita filter even though we got city water.
Speaker 3: So.
Speaker 1: Kreik Stewart is on the Weather Channels a host. It's
Speaker 1: been on many shows too as well, obviously, and has
Speaker 1: a book called The Disaster Ready Home, a step by
Speaker 1: step emergency preparedness Manual for sheltering in place. This conversation
Speaker 1: began with when the forecasters give you the one inch
Speaker 1: of snow and tell you to have an emergency blanket
Speaker 1: and food and water in your car and first aid
Speaker 1: kid and a fire starter kit with an axe and
Speaker 1: a gun in case that inch of snow and you're
Speaker 1: stuck on it all off of Rybolt Road. You're seventy
Speaker 1: four something like that, and acting as if you're driving
Speaker 1: through the wilderness like it's a Jeep commercial or something
Speaker 1: like that. You know, chances are you don't need a
Speaker 1: gun and a survival kit, but again, fore warned is
Speaker 1: four arm Creek All the best, good luck with the book.
Speaker 2: Thanks for coming on the show. I appreciate you.
Speaker 8: Hey, thanks s good.
Speaker 7: Appreciate the opportunity.
Speaker 3: Man right.
Speaker 1: I always love having you back on specially Jerseys weather
Speaker 1: events like this. Now you're not getting an inch of snow,
Speaker 1: We're getting what's maybe six to twelve, who knows six
Speaker 1: to ten? Anyway, good news. This happens on a weekend,
Speaker 1: so chance of being stuck in your car on the
Speaker 1: side of the road. I was looking it up as
Speaker 1: he was finishing there, because I couldn't remember a year
Speaker 1: it was. We were talking about the I ninety five thing
Speaker 1: that was in Virgil Fredericksburg, virgin in January twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2: So four years ago I fellt like two years ago.
Speaker 1: People are stuck there for like thirty hours because they've
Speaker 1: got snow seven to fourteen inches and it came down
Speaker 1: a lot harder and a lot faster than they thought
Speaker 1: it did, so a lot of people were stuck. And
Speaker 1: I remember growing up in western New York when the
Speaker 1: big blizzard hit in seventy seven, people were actually died
Speaker 1: in their cars. So not that we're expecting that here
Speaker 1: because I know we've got a lot more information and
Speaker 1: also contacting people is a lot easier today than it
Speaker 1: was then. But nonetheless, just some information to keeping the
Speaker 1: back of your head, hopefully you never have to use
Speaker 1: it anyway. Full forecast update is looking more like reality here.
Speaker 1: This big storm we're going to get starting on Saturday.
Speaker 1: All that and more just ahead on seven hundred wls
Speaker 1: golbody here.
Speaker 2: On seven hundred wl W.
Speaker 1: Boy, if there's a weekend you ever gonna need more calories,
Speaker 1: it's going to be this one, because you go be
Speaker 1: out shoveling.
Speaker 2: A little bit, a little bit.
Speaker 1: Every Thursday morning we bring in son Jay Shavacrimani, eer
Speaker 1: physician but also an expert in fitness and health, and
Speaker 1: he's our guy we talked to every Thursday about those things.
Speaker 2: Good morning, how are you. It's been a minute. How's
Speaker 2: your vacation. Vacation was good, Sloan.
Speaker 9: It was ninety degrees every day over in Vietnam, and
Speaker 9: you know, pretty much the same here. So I was
Speaker 9: working on my shoveling skills over there.
Speaker 1: I bet you were ninety degrees. It's really it's pretty
Speaker 1: hot over That's a bucket. Let's kind of play were
Speaker 1: you there?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 1: I'm watching this mini series that Ken Burns thing catching up,
Speaker 1: but I'm halfway through it on the Vietnam War. Don't
Speaker 1: tell me how that ends, because right now it seems
Speaker 1: like it's going okay because the generals are saying Wes
Speaker 1: Moreland says everything's good. So don't don't don't ruin it
Speaker 1: for me. Let's jump into this this morning on the show.
Speaker 1: And we have new federal dietary guidelines coming out from
Speaker 1: our FK Junior that bumps protein up to the top
Speaker 1: of the list. And we also have full fat milk
Speaker 1: coming back to schools, and we got rid of full
Speaker 1: fat milk. And of course the I guess the anti
Speaker 1: Trump crowd and everything's political these days, even food now
Speaker 1: of all things are angry as we're gonna you know,
Speaker 1: we're gonna kill more Americans. But I don't know if
Speaker 1: I totally agree with that thing. Let's let's start. Let's
Speaker 1: start with the milk thing before I look at the
Speaker 1: whole pyramid, because that is the latest information we have
Speaker 1: out here.
Speaker 2: So whole milk is back.
Speaker 1: New guide, dietary guidelines for the next five years four
Speaker 1: years anyway, recommend full three servings of full fat every
Speaker 1: day and they're going to serve whole and two percent
Speaker 1: milk at school.
Speaker 3: Again.
Speaker 1: That reverses the Obama area low fat restrictions, which is
Speaker 1: like learning more about fat. Fat used to be the
Speaker 1: worst thing ever, right, And remember when like snack Whales
Speaker 1: came out, I was like fat free, everything's fat free,
Speaker 1: but they just loaded up with sugar. So it's your
Speaker 1: training one bad thing for another exactly.
Speaker 9: And that's that's what a lot of the research has
Speaker 9: looked at is you know, it's not just eliminating one thing,
Speaker 9: it's what you do to replace it. And so a
Speaker 9: lot of the effects that we're seeing are negative by
Speaker 9: by reducing fat. I mean, certainly there's a lot of
Speaker 9: benefit to it, but it all depends on what you're
Speaker 9: substituting with.
Speaker 1: Right, There's been what is the benefit of the fat?
Speaker 1: I think for one? For me anyway, it seems like
Speaker 1: it's sat shade, it's satisfied.
Speaker 9: That's a huge say it, right, I mean, you know,
Speaker 9: there there are a ton if we're just going to
Speaker 9: talk about eating. Yeah, I mean, if you're if you're
Speaker 9: drinking skim milk, it's I don't enjoy it?
Speaker 5: Do you?
Speaker 2: Do you like skim You know? I'm I'm a two
Speaker 2: percent guy.
Speaker 9: Same And the thing about skim milk is it's like water,
Speaker 9: and after I drink it, I'm like, I still need
Speaker 9: something substantial, So I probably eat some snacks after it too.
Speaker 3: Ye.
Speaker 9: The nice thing about you know, the higher percentage fat
Speaker 9: milks is that you don't have to eat something afterwards.
Speaker 9: You may be more satiated, you may be more full, right,
Speaker 9: and so you're not kind of taking more calories in
Speaker 9: after that.
Speaker 2: That's one big thing, right.
Speaker 1: Right, And there's a sense to that too. It it's somebod.
Speaker 1: The whole milk, it just tastes better. I remember one
Speaker 1: time we were I was backpacking, right, and we got done,
Speaker 1: like the only thing they had was whole milk in
Speaker 1: the cafeteria, and I crushed like five.
Speaker 2: It was like the best tasting milk ever.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Right, it's just like something about whole milk. But you
Speaker 1: don't need a lot of it. It's it's it's so
Speaker 1: rich and satisfies you your your taste, Budge, there's a
Speaker 1: trigger inside he says, Okay, you're good on the fat
Speaker 1: and the milk.
Speaker 2: That's all you need. Need a little bit. You don't
Speaker 2: need a half gallon.
Speaker 9: No, you don't. And and the thing is, it's to
Speaker 9: your point. It tastes good. And milk consumption's actually gone
Speaker 9: down markedly in the last fifty years, so like since
Speaker 9: the seventies, it's gone down like fifty percent as far
Speaker 9: as people drinking. It's probably because we've switched to lower
Speaker 9: fat and you know, health concerns for sure, but there
Speaker 9: is definitely a decrease in milk consumption since all the
Speaker 9: warning started coming out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and sign you on top of that, I think
Speaker 1: back to eggs, right, egg o, tony, Oh, cholesterol, And
Speaker 1: now we're like, well eat eggs.
Speaker 9: Well yeah, and that's the it's cholesterol one for you, right,
Speaker 9: it is good for you.
Speaker 2: You need some.
Speaker 9: I mean, everything's good in modern but it's just like
Speaker 9: everything else, we keep learning more and more. And I'll
Speaker 9: tell you when I was going through med school, it
Speaker 9: was saturated fats are the devil, you know, and it's
Speaker 9: just a black and white that's given to you. And
Speaker 9: there are a ton of shades of gray in this
Speaker 9: and as we learn more, we're introducing more shades of gray.
Speaker 9: But we're also getting more clarification about why some people
Speaker 9: have good effects with things and other people don't.
Speaker 1: Oh well that's the other You don't know till you
Speaker 1: get a diagnosis, right, if your body tolerates it exactly.
Speaker 9: And so you know, as much research as we do,
Speaker 9: everybody's an individual body is also going to react differently.
Speaker 9: But we are seeing larger population things that that are
Speaker 9: speaking to saturated fats and what effects are good and
Speaker 9: what effects are bad and who it's good for. And
Speaker 9: that's where this milk change came from.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, so I think the research said that dairy
Speaker 1: fat may be at worst neutral, Is that an accurate
Speaker 1: assessment in your opinion?
Speaker 9: Yeah, at worst neutral is confusing a bunch of words.
Speaker 2: But so the worst thing is the worst thing it
Speaker 2: happened for is nothing?
Speaker 5: Is that?
Speaker 3: Essentially?
Speaker 9: I mean, that's what we're seeing right now, and I'll
Speaker 9: always qualify things with that as far as findings in
Speaker 9: the literature, things are always bound to change, just like
Speaker 9: our two glasses of wine good or one glass of
Speaker 9: wine good. It's the same thing with this, but it's
Speaker 9: it's evolving. And so what we're learning is that dairy
Speaker 9: saturated fats, so the saturated fats that are included in
Speaker 9: things like yogurt, in milk and cheese, those are kind
Speaker 9: of they behave differently in our bodies, both with the
Speaker 9: absorption and what they do in our bodies, and so
Speaker 9: they have a different effect in our bodies than the
Speaker 9: saturated fats that we take in from meats and other
Speaker 9: things that have been demonized for so long.
Speaker 1: All right, so I'm still confused by this, Sanjay, Can
Speaker 1: I still have a whole stick of butter for lunch?
Speaker 9: You can have two sloan but no one else, no
Speaker 9: one else listening can But I don't see.
Speaker 1: The whole Butter tastes great and bread whatever it is
Speaker 1: like it just you know, margarine and we've got this
Speaker 1: this avocado oil butter and stuff like.
Speaker 2: Just have a little bit of butter.
Speaker 9: Yeah, so we'll be we'll be at the pyramid in
Speaker 9: a little bit, or at least the new guidelines right
Speaker 9: that butter. There's a picture of butter right in that triangle.
Speaker 9: And so you know, butter is fine to a certain amount,
Speaker 9: and again everything is good in moderation. It is not
Speaker 9: you know, butter is classified as dairy, but it's not
Speaker 9: the dairy we're talking about here with the really healthy
Speaker 9: saturated fats that will that could potentially improve your health.
Speaker 9: So again it's the yogurt, it's the cheese, it's the milk.
Speaker 9: Those those saturated fats in there maybe beneficial to health.
Speaker 9: And that's what we're seeing in a bunch of studies
Speaker 9: in the last.
Speaker 1: Decade, Wow, that it's actually good for you so or
Speaker 1: versus twenty something years of science that we thought, oh,
Speaker 1: it's all bad for you.
Speaker 2: Exactly.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like the meat debate, you know, and
Speaker 1: the environment and all will get to that in a second.
Speaker 1: But when they rolled out impossible burgers and you try that,
Speaker 1: you go, oh, what actually tastes because in the past, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that tofurky stuff like us nasty? Like why if you
Speaker 1: like tofu, eat the tofu? But why do you try
Speaker 1: to trick you into thinking it's something that it's not.
Speaker 2: You know, it's just it's like, well.
Speaker 9: It's mental gymnastics.
Speaker 1: There always something because you know, my daughter when she
Speaker 1: was kids, she went through the I'm going a vegan
Speaker 1: and then you buy this crap and she'd eat it
Speaker 1: because it tastes like crap, of course, and she eat
Speaker 1: my nuggets.
Speaker 2: So we got problems. We're gonna tell we're gonna throw down.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: But but you look at this and go, okay, that
Speaker 1: that aside, when you get back to eggs and meat
Speaker 1: and dairy and just just have a little bit of
Speaker 1: the good stuff and you're satisfied and you're fine. Let's
Speaker 1: I mentioned the impossible burger.
Speaker 2: Same thing. It's like you're training.
Speaker 1: Okay, hey, that's a little cholesterol, but it's got to
Speaker 1: help a lot of sodium in it.
Speaker 9: Yea, it's the sodium, but it's also the other stuff
Speaker 9: and that's not yeah, exactly, the chemicals and that's the
Speaker 9: that's the other part of this new guideline from the
Speaker 9: government is you know, eat real food. That's there, that's
Speaker 9: their three words. It's just real food as opposed to
Speaker 9: things that have been ultra processed, which we're finding that
Speaker 9: is that is the enemy. That's that's where we really
Speaker 9: should be focusing our attention as opposed to you know,
Speaker 9: the saturated fats and eliminating fat, et cetera.
Speaker 1: How many days a week or how many times can
Speaker 1: we could I I mean have a process. I mean,
Speaker 1: if you're really you want a you know, carry out
Speaker 1: cheeseburger or a pizza or something like that, there's going
Speaker 1: to be you know, process glue all that stuff. How
Speaker 1: many times? How often?
Speaker 2: It's hard?
Speaker 9: I like sticking to the eighty twenty rule general in
Speaker 9: my life as far as you know, do eighty percent
Speaker 9: of the time do it well? Twenty percent of the
Speaker 9: time not so well? Loose Obviously as a physician, I
Speaker 9: have to say never do it. But who's going to
Speaker 9: follow that? Not even myself? Yeah, because I love a
Speaker 9: good burger, right, and so I would say, you know,
Speaker 9: as long as five days out of the week you're
Speaker 9: eating healthy and watching all of that ultra processed food.
Speaker 9: You know, treat yourself, okay, once or twice.
Speaker 1: A week, but sometimes like the junk food is like,
Speaker 1: for example, I like wings, So if I have chicken wing,
Speaker 1: it's a chicken wing and it's Frank's red hot, which
Speaker 1: is just you know, peppers and vinegar and salt. Essentially,
Speaker 1: there's nothing really processed about all that is there.
Speaker 2: But it's still bad for men.
Speaker 9: It depends where you're getting your wings. If you're going
Speaker 9: out to a chain, you don't know what they're frying
Speaker 9: it in. You don't know what extra ingredients they're putting
Speaker 9: in it. Yeah, to your point, if you're making them
Speaker 9: at home and baking them especially, you can Yeah, you.
Speaker 2: Can do that.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, let's talk about the food minter again.
Speaker 1: It's our resident physician and health guy Health Food and
Speaker 1: Fitness coming together with Sanjay Shevacrimani. Let's talk about the
Speaker 1: new guidelines that rolled out recently for the food pyramid.
Speaker 1: And obviously the dairy element comes and have the whole
Speaker 1: fact coming back and so how much different is it?
Speaker 2: What are they calling for?
Speaker 9: So what they're calling for is increased amount of protein.
Speaker 9: So one and a half grams per kilogram to one
Speaker 9: point seven grams per kilogram of body weight.
Speaker 2: So for the for.
Speaker 1: Me, I'm an American English.
Speaker 9: That's the funny part is you know we have again
Speaker 9: and then we get kilograms in there, come on, come on.
Speaker 9: But yes, basically for a you can come down to
Speaker 9: basically half a pound per sorry half u zero point
Speaker 9: five grams of protein per pound of body weight. And
Speaker 9: so for me, it's a little over one hundred that
Speaker 9: I should be at. As far as protein andras protein, yeah,
Speaker 9: a lot of protein. It is a lot, and you
Speaker 9: know it's it's much higher than what it was before.
Speaker 9: I think it was point eight to one. And so
Speaker 9: we're increasing by a scale of you know, almost seventy
Speaker 9: five percent increase, and so there is a lot to
Speaker 9: it as far as protein, not just satisfying your hunger,
Speaker 9: but what it does to our you know, our body
Speaker 9: mass and how we metabolize things and burn calories. And
Speaker 9: so what we're finding more and more is protein is
Speaker 9: is golden as far as its intake.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean, especially the very lean proteins, chicken breast,
Speaker 1: things like that. You can't go wrong cooking that stuff
Speaker 1: for sure. So and you are his said, well, your
Speaker 1: body only needs a certain amount of this thing. But
Speaker 1: then you know, you look at bodybuilders. You know, you
Speaker 1: own a gym and guys there. You know back in
Speaker 1: the day when I would lift it. See, you need
Speaker 1: more prote than the guidelines recommend. You're taking a way
Speaker 1: more protein than that. Now your body just excreachs. It's like,
Speaker 1: you know, vitamins or just makes her p expensive. But
Speaker 1: every successful bodybuilder I've ever seen or talked to, they
Speaker 1: eat incredible amount of protein. So there's some truth today,
Speaker 1: and it's more about the it's about the science, and
Speaker 1: I see better than I hear.
Speaker 9: Yeah, there's a lot. I mean, especially if you if
Speaker 9: you do want to get stronger and stronger. Now, if
Speaker 9: you want to maintain, you don't have to pound the protein,
Speaker 9: but if you do want to get stronger, bigger, et cetera,
Speaker 9: increasing your protein intake is one of the cornerstones.
Speaker 1: Okay, so yeah, the new guidelines are increasing protein. It
Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily mean though, because often people confuse that protein
Speaker 1: thing with either I've got to drink you know, liquid
Speaker 1: aminos and all the or now I'm eating you know,
Speaker 1: hamburger every meal.
Speaker 2: That's not true at all that's funny.
Speaker 1: A lean pork always got a bad rap because it
Speaker 1: was fatty, but pork is extremely lean.
Speaker 2: Now pork is pretty lean.
Speaker 9: I'm still very much a fan of poultry and fish
Speaker 9: in general, especially fish coming through with the Omega threes,
Speaker 9: stuff like salmon, I even you know, mackerel is one
Speaker 9: of those things that really comes up. And then sardines,
Speaker 9: which I'm weird and I love them.
Speaker 2: But I'm a sardine guy. I like sardine.
Speaker 9: I'll put those things on my toast or my bagels
Speaker 9: in the morning. Le fiance, you know, turns their nose
Speaker 9: up or just walks away when I do that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the seas are salid.
Speaker 9: I'm having to start there was don't fall on the
Speaker 9: list so much. Start the entire little healthier. But anchovies
Speaker 9: do have their health benefits too, gotcha all right?
Speaker 2: Son? Jay? So we know protein is is it the
Speaker 2: top of the pyramid?
Speaker 5: Now?
Speaker 9: So it they They've actually not It's not really called
Speaker 9: a pyramid so much anymore. It's actually drawn as an
Speaker 9: inverted pyramid. And overall, the the idea is balance, get
Speaker 9: a certain amount of a lot of healthy things and
Speaker 9: real foods, and so what you'll see is the picture
Speaker 9: depicted with vegetables and proteins up top, and then you'll
Speaker 9: have whole grains on the bottom, which is again a
Speaker 9: different change. It's you know, carbs are not the devil.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 9: You know, however many years ago keto is all the rage.
Speaker 9: I know some people still do it. But what we're
Speaker 9: finding is balance is good and then paying more attention,
Speaker 9: uh to the protein intake especially and then your fruits
Speaker 9: and vegetables.
Speaker 1: Is this all change, this whole protein thing because of
Speaker 1: the keto rage and the fact that actually worked it rocks.
Speaker 9: I wouldn't be surprised if that was part of it.
Speaker 9: I mean, you know the keto craze was that was
Speaker 9: that diet actually originally came from treating patients with seizures,
Speaker 9: and then they found out, like these kids are getting gains. No,
Speaker 9: it is more like the weight loss, and that's what happened,
Speaker 9: and people kind of jumped onto that. So we're going
Speaker 9: to continue to learn about this stuff, and I wouldn't
Speaker 9: be surprised. I have well, I have a little idea
Speaker 9: about what might be the next protein, which is fiber,
Speaker 9: which has been ignored for a long time. But fiber
Speaker 9: is probably going to be have more attention coming up
Speaker 9: to So normally think fiber, you think carbohydrates. You don't
Speaker 9: think protein, right, and you know it is carbs, but
Speaker 9: they're usually not absorbed carbohydrates, So you don't have to
Speaker 9: worry so much about all the calories you're getting in
Speaker 9: because they're just kind of kind of pushed through your
Speaker 9: your intestines and leave the body. And so fiber is
Speaker 9: like a toothbrush or your colon, exactly power washing out there.
Speaker 9: And that's actually a great metaphor. It's you know, it
Speaker 9: really kind of moves things along and keeps you healthy.
Speaker 9: And we'll see where that goes. I don't have a
Speaker 9: lot of data to back that up, but I know
Speaker 9: that fiber is really getting more attention.
Speaker 1: Sanjay Shavacromani here on Scottslone show on seven hundred wlwuh.
Speaker 1: He's a physician, gym owner, he's a health guy. We
Speaker 1: talk about all that stuff on Thursday mornings. Anyway, Where
Speaker 1: can people find you? What's your handle?
Speaker 9: Dine Well Doc or doctor sun Jay Sinc. Those are
Speaker 9: my two instagram right at dine welld Doc. There you
Speaker 9: go appreciate it, brother, Thank you.
Speaker 1: We'll talk next week Scott's Loan Show, seven hundred w welwig.
Speaker 5: Check that's check.
Speaker 2: Enter it now.
Speaker 1: Floaning here on seven hundred w W A Trump hurricane,
Speaker 1: Trump blowing the Switzerland.
Speaker 2: Mister Davos is all upside. I don't know what to bay.
Speaker 2: They're like, what do we make of this guy? We
Speaker 2: don't know. You got tariffs, you got Greenland, we got
Speaker 2: so much more.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 1: The big question, of course, then is how this impacts US.
Speaker 1: And a new study shows US tariffs anyway not good. Dominic,
Speaker 1: mister Rendino on the show Retail techmedianexus dot com is
Speaker 1: what site?
Speaker 2: Dominic? Good morning, How are.
Speaker 5: You doing well? How are you doing that?
Speaker 1: I'm doing well. There's a lot going on. You've got
Speaker 1: trumpet Davus, You've got terrorists back and forth. It's a mess.
Speaker 5: So you know, the.
Speaker 1: Baseline ten percent tax on all imports for certain countries.
Speaker 2: We saw that.
Speaker 1: We saw Brazil saturday hits ten percent or threats anyway
Speaker 1: against members of the EU, which may fracture that as well.
Speaker 1: There's a lot going on relative to the terroriffs. And
Speaker 1: of course the study comes out that I will share
Speaker 1: right now that said, and it's from a think tank
Speaker 1: that's been around for a long long time, like one
Speaker 1: hundred years, very respected in many circles. I'm sure the
Speaker 1: President will disagree with the Day to say and it's fake.
Speaker 1: But ninety six percent of tariff costs fall on American
Speaker 1: importers and consumers, and so foreign exporters who the terroriff's
Speaker 1: target absorbab only about four percent of that. We've seen
Speaker 1: about two hundred billion dollars come into customs last year.
Speaker 1: I believe it was two hundred bion close to it.
Speaker 1: But most of that is an effectively at tax paid
Speaker 1: by by most Americans. So given that, how are retailers
Speaker 1: adjusting their pricing strategies to cope with all this?
Speaker 6: Well, first, thanks for the questions all that intro. You know,
Speaker 6: one has to consider what is a tariff? And the
Speaker 6: tariff is tax on the goods coming in the door.
Speaker 6: It's not as if the other country is paying it
Speaker 6: or the other person sending it over. It's the importer.
Speaker 6: And if an importer is receiving this goods and going
Speaker 6: to sell them on, he's getting his T shirts in
Speaker 6: for ten bucks or his coffee in, he's not likely
Speaker 6: going to say I will just absorb that tax right,
Speaker 6: and enjoy it for the fun.
Speaker 1: You can for a while, but it's not sustainable in
Speaker 1: the long term.
Speaker 6: Not at all. And in certain cases, not only that,
Speaker 6: the margin just isn't there. When you're buying your fifteen
Speaker 6: dollars for a pound of coffee, at one point just
Speaker 6: have to pay the guy to pick the coffee, grow
Speaker 6: the beans. It's not as if it's dock on dollar
Speaker 6: and yet magically it's fourteen dollars for profit. So when
Speaker 6: you do have these tariffs, generally speaking, they're higher than
Speaker 6: the profit margin. So if you're running a business and
Speaker 6: your job is importing coffee beans and you have a
Speaker 6: tariff slapped on that, you're going to raise the price.
Speaker 5: There's just no other choice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you have to. And that's why inflation is
Speaker 2: where it is. I mean, it's sticky.
Speaker 1: They I think the Chairman of the Fed, Jerom Powell,
Speaker 1: said that they expect things to maybe level off here
Speaker 1: and it's starting to go down slightly slowly, but it's
Speaker 1: going to be in long slog until we burn off
Speaker 1: some of this tariff stuff. So on that when it
Speaker 1: comes to the retail environment that we all have to
Speaker 1: participating as American consumers. If you do a deep dive
Speaker 1: on this study that came out that said ninety six
Speaker 1: cents of every dollar's paid for paid by American consumers
Speaker 1: and the tariffs, I guess you see trade volumes. The
Speaker 1: volume collapses, but the price is stay high. So does
Speaker 1: that simply mean that certain product categories have been discontinued
Speaker 1: or limited because of the tar aras and we just
Speaker 1: like we dwindled the supply, maybe not of quantity, but
Speaker 1: of choices. Does it eliminate choices?
Speaker 6: Consumers still love choices, but it eliminates choices in terms
Speaker 6: of demand. If you're going to go to Starbucks, you're
Speaker 6: not necessarily going to buy that coffee where the beans
Speaker 6: are so super rare.
Speaker 5: When it's forty five dollars a pound.
Speaker 6: After awhile, right, you're going to start choosing. You saw
Speaker 6: this recently with the car manufacturers saying, you know, the
Speaker 6: importing the luxury cars because the average consumer is going
Speaker 6: to say, I don't want to spend that much. Once
Speaker 6: that price goes up, the choice of luxury starts getting
Speaker 6: hit too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, some of this stuff feels luxurious. I've just seen
Speaker 1: some of you. Well, our buddy John John from our
Speaker 1: sisters stition kiss Oo seven. I saw him yesterday and
Speaker 1: had a bag of the mushroom coffee. I've heard about it,
Speaker 1: I've never seen it live in the real world before.
Speaker 1: And I said, ah, man, I'm coffee so expensive right now?
Speaker 2: Is that a go to?
Speaker 5: If?
Speaker 1: He said no, it's like forty five bucks a bag
Speaker 1: for some mind what the I'm like, I guess there's
Speaker 1: still some first ball problems out there despite the economy.
Speaker 6: Well, you know, people will still do it.
Speaker 5: Will he do it every day? Will he do it
Speaker 5: every week?
Speaker 2: It's kind of dumb. He probably will.
Speaker 6: Well, it's a different story, you know. Then that's an
Speaker 6: intelligence issue going on. But and that, But there is
Speaker 6: a truth to that. If there is somebody who has
Speaker 6: the budget for such things, yes they are not impacted.
Speaker 6: If you are a billionaire, you're not really worrying about
Speaker 6: the type of coffee you're buying. The average guy covering
Speaker 6: the average bills, he's worried. And some of these paraffs.
Speaker 6: Keep in mind, the premise normally is please get manufacturings
Speaker 6: back to the United States.
Speaker 1: Okay, But but that's not happening right now because I
Speaker 1: mean it's gotten away from that. That was the campaign promise, like, hey,
Speaker 1: we need to get manufacturing jobs back.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's all the union guys.
Speaker 1: You support him, and they're like, hey, well you're right,
Speaker 1: let's get And I'm a very very protragous guy. That's
Speaker 1: what I do when I'm not here. However, now we're
Speaker 1: you know, he's at Davos talking about hitting retali tray
Speaker 1: or tarifsts and the Europeans will retaliate because we want
Speaker 1: to take over Greenland. What the hell's that got to
Speaker 1: do with bringing manufacturing back to the United States.
Speaker 6: And exactly that's one of many problems I think that
Speaker 6: we're seeing is that Number one, is it the direct modus?
Speaker 6: Number two, are we hitting products that we can even
Speaker 6: bring back to the United States? Coffee? I keep on quoting,
Speaker 6: because you can't bring that back. There's just there's no back.
Speaker 6: There's no way to do it. No, there's certain chemicals,
Speaker 6: are certain manufacturing. I remember being an article of people
Speaker 6: in West Virginia saying, we don't want to have our
Speaker 6: grandkids working in the minds that we we did. That's
Speaker 6: the different mindsets and sometimes you don't want it back.
Speaker 6: And also keep in mind Tariff's smooth hole like, there's
Speaker 6: been historical precedent where people don't really love tariffs. They
Speaker 6: don't work out so well historically speaking. But it was
Speaker 6: a campaign promise, right, So now it's being used for
Speaker 6: multiple motives, and when you don't know what that motive is,
Speaker 6: it's very hard for the markets to readjust which.
Speaker 1: Is why we see all this volatility, the Green one,
Speaker 1: everything else. We just don't know what's going to happen tomorrow,
Speaker 1: and markets hate that. They like certainty, inconsistency, They hate
Speaker 1: what's happening here relative to volatility. If you have a
Speaker 1: product like Brazil any other countries with a fifty percent
Speaker 1: plus tariff, right you kind of touched on a little bit,
Speaker 1: But are there domestic alternatives or non tariffs suppliers from
Speaker 1: other countries? Are We starting to find.
Speaker 6: That depends on the product And the other minor issue
Speaker 6: is depends also on the complexity of the product. You're
Speaker 6: talking about supply chains and a very elaborate supply chain
Speaker 6: system that has been created over years. So car manufacturing,
Speaker 6: we've discussed that that takes years to build a factory. iPhones,
Speaker 6: you don't necessarily hear about new iPhone factories being made
Speaker 6: in the us because it takes a good degree of time.
Speaker 6: So with that in mind, it is a mechanism that
Speaker 6: requires a good degree of time, and people do want
Speaker 6: to be aligned to know why are we doing this?
Speaker 5: Essentially?
Speaker 1: Yeah, what about something like clothing? For example? Is that
Speaker 1: I mean we have cotton? Where are we able to
Speaker 1: manufacture clothing? Take some of this stuff back?
Speaker 6: All this in theory could be done because the other
Speaker 6: question begs, we're used to going on Amazon buying a
Speaker 6: shirt for five dollars? How are you going to possibly
Speaker 6: do that in America fifteen to twenty dollars hour minimum
Speaker 6: wage in most areas, it's not gonna happen. So the
Speaker 6: cost on the consumer. We're used to this Amazon team world.
Speaker 3: Way? Does that go?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Well, some of us might say, go, well, you
Speaker 2: go back to the old days. We made everything.
Speaker 1: It was larger because of World War two, right, we're
Speaker 1: the only giant left stand. We became a giant and
Speaker 1: everyone else, you know, the European economy was in shambles
Speaker 1: because of the war. Russia was not a player, India,
Speaker 1: China and they were all prehistoric colonies. But at that
Speaker 1: point a lot of people haven't got anywhere near so
Speaker 1: we made everything for the rest of the world because
Speaker 1: the infrastructure was wiped out. So we got fat, happy
Speaker 1: and complacent in the fifties, in a part of the sixties,
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden by the seventies, like
Speaker 1: the Japanese came around with the auto industry. We started
Speaker 1: to see that turn. So it's easy to unravel it
Speaker 1: and go, hey, you know what we're gonna We're gonna
Speaker 1: bring up the rest of the world. We're gonna see
Speaker 1: prices drop resultless. But now we got to the point
Speaker 1: where dependent on those foreign goods, you can go one way,
Speaker 1: but you can't go back to the way it was.
Speaker 1: You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube and
Speaker 1: bring those jobs back here because the cost of a
Speaker 1: T shirt would be like four hundred dollars.
Speaker 5: Well, the next question to me is do we want
Speaker 5: that we had manufacturing here? Did we necessarily love having
Speaker 5: factories all over? Right?
Speaker 6: We turned into a service tourism economy, and you know,
Speaker 6: we turned into the brains of the world developing stuff.
Speaker 5: If you look at the top biggest.
Speaker 6: Companies, Facebook, Twitter, you know, all social media, our movie industry,
Speaker 6: we're not necessarily building stuff. But that said we are
Speaker 6: the guys organizing and creating that service, does that and
Speaker 6: want to change? Do we truly want to have more
Speaker 6: coal factories or more this?
Speaker 5: What do we enjoy ordering that stuff in the door?
Speaker 6: And yet you know, having that privilege so to speak.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that that's also reflect that's also reflected back.
Speaker 2: Like kids, for example, used to be well, what do
Speaker 2: you want to be? I want to be?
Speaker 1: I don't know, I want to be an astronaut, right,
Speaker 1: be a firefighter on being?
Speaker 2: Okay? What kids want to be influencers today?
Speaker 5: Right?
Speaker 1: Those are other service jobs to to agree, But largely
Speaker 1: it was like and no one says, hey, you don't
Speaker 1: want to to dig ditches from my life? Okay, it
Speaker 1: just happens. But and we need those two to quote
Speaker 1: judge mails. But nonetheless, kids today want to be influencers.
Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure you're that's a reflection of our
Speaker 1: culture right now. We don't want to work harder, we
Speaker 1: want to orc smarter.
Speaker 6: Yes, and that's what also is it change too, where
Speaker 6: we became the country that people are immigrating to educating
Speaker 6: our population. Now we're having a brain drain of people
Speaker 6: saying I'm not going to America. I'm not going trade
Speaker 6: to America, and that in turn does effect people trying
Speaker 6: to learn or people trying to trade. If you're running
Speaker 6: a business based on service, trade and the ability to
Speaker 6: go country to country is vital to that.
Speaker 2: It was said about Greenland. Mister Rendino.
Speaker 1: By the way, Dom is CEO of Retail, Tech, Media
Speaker 1: and Exus, so he's in the retail sector here too,
Speaker 1: in the impact at the tariffs and presidents are talking
Speaker 1: at Davos and then taking some Q and A from
Speaker 1: the audience at all factors and still leaning towards wanting
Speaker 1: to take over Greenland at this point our European allies
Speaker 1: we need the markets there. By the way, the European
Speaker 1: allies and the EU declared an end to the US
Speaker 1: led global order. Essentially, that's what they said without saying it,
Speaker 1: or maybe some of them did say that, I don't
Speaker 1: know what does that actually mean from a consumer standpoint
Speaker 1: here in America.
Speaker 5: Oh right, And how it's a ripleffect.
Speaker 6: And the more we demand things, for example Greenland, et cetera,
Speaker 6: you're having other countries say can we trust America?
Speaker 5: Can we deal with America?
Speaker 6: Is America the lead? How does America say please don't
Speaker 6: invade Taiwan. We're discussing this. But in addition trade, One
Speaker 6: of the most successful campaigns I think America did during
Speaker 6: trade was when we World War two. We gave about
Speaker 6: bubblegum as soldiers and everyone tasted Wrigley in Hershey's and
Speaker 6: became a brand name. It wasn't as if the product
Speaker 6: was better nor worse, but the brand was there and
Speaker 6: everyone wanted to feel American.
Speaker 5: What happens when that changes.
Speaker 6: You're seeing it now in Kentucky whiskey is going down
Speaker 6: because people do not want that.
Speaker 5: That has that ripple effect.
Speaker 6: One interesting David rattling affects the other.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, kind of the verse is true. I guess
Speaker 1: you know, back the soldiers coming home from World War Two,
Speaker 1: they brought like Italian pizza wasn't a thing until they
Speaker 1: came back from overseas and Italian food. I mean, just
Speaker 1: a small example, but you know, it works both ways
Speaker 1: if you your culture influences others. Coca Cola took off
Speaker 1: globally for that that same reason.
Speaker 6: And these products that take off Coca Cola, McDonald's, Taco Bell,
Speaker 6: spam in the Bland, spam in Asia, right, Yeah, exactly,
Speaker 6: but are they necessarily the best product? Meaning are you
Speaker 6: going to eat McDonald's coke and taco bell and become
Speaker 6: the healthiest human in the planet or are we.
Speaker 5: Doing it because we want to feel good?
Speaker 6: And if that feel good is gone or affected, maybe
Speaker 6: the feeling changes. Maybe you have a negative feeling and
Speaker 6: you're seeing that Kentucky whiskey that is down.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is, well, start with Canada and elsewhere.
Speaker 1: Uh So the research in this the study by the way, Dominicus, Erandino,
Speaker 1: ninety six percent of tariff costs fall on US American consumers.
Speaker 1: So ninety six cents of every dollar when it comes
Speaker 1: to these tariffs are falling on the Americans consumably in
Speaker 1: fourth sense of that dollar, four percent.
Speaker 2: Are observed by foreign exporters.
Speaker 1: And so we're seeing that two hundred billion in customs
Speaker 1: revenue come back to us, and it's our money to
Speaker 1: begin with, according to the study. Whether you agree or disagree,
Speaker 1: I'll go with the research. And it also shows its
Speaker 1: supply chains are sticky, so you know, we'll just hey,
Speaker 1: we'll just switch supply. You can't really do what's the
Speaker 1: real last time on for fors switch and suppliers. I mean,
Speaker 1: you're in that business dominic. It's it's from I understand,
Speaker 1: it's damn near impossible.
Speaker 6: It's it depends on what I know. Some situations are impossible.
Speaker 6: I know a sunglasses manufacturer that once.
Speaker 5: The artisans who are based in Italy.
Speaker 6: So she's like, I can't get them to come over
Speaker 6: and magically teach those skills to people here in America.
Speaker 5: That's not going to work.
Speaker 6: Other cases, yes, but we go back to that example
Speaker 6: of coffee.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that is impossible.
Speaker 6: You cannot magically make coffee appear and grow in places
Speaker 6: it can't grow. You're not gonna grow coffee in the Midwest, right.
Speaker 3: Not going to happen.
Speaker 6: So it does depend entirely on the product itself. But
Speaker 6: the other challenge is one thing relates to the other.
Speaker 6: So if you're building cars, you might have a factory here,
Speaker 6: but you still need to get the rubber in.
Speaker 5: We're not growing rubber trees in Ohio. You know, it's
Speaker 5: just not going to happen.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, And it's kind of a slow slog here,
Speaker 1: and you hope, like at some point you see it payoff.
Speaker 1: And of course we demand instant gratification here in the West.
Speaker 1: That's another part of the problem too. You know when
Speaker 1: the president on the trail says on day one, I'm
Speaker 1: going to fix all the stuff, and here it is
Speaker 1: a year later, and it's not. You know that that
Speaker 1: just feeds that instant demand on demand side, whereas a
Speaker 1: lot of the rest of the world, not all of it,
Speaker 1: but they are more of a slowpl I mean, you
Speaker 1: look at the Middle East right though, China, everything else,
Speaker 1: it's a long slow boils what it is. That's a
Speaker 1: whole different mindset. And you know, our on demand society
Speaker 1: you're in America doesn't mesh up with that.
Speaker 6: Well, keep in mind, we have moved from our regional
Speaker 6: economy to a global We are used to getting goods
Speaker 6: that we really should not normally have gotten. If you're
Speaker 6: sitting in Ohio, you're sitting in the Midwest, you're used
Speaker 6: to getting products on Timu in three minutes.
Speaker 5: But if you think.
Speaker 6: Historically, that's not a norm that you would just go online,
Speaker 6: press a button. It was revolutionary when we did this
Speaker 6: year a Zobach catalog fifty years ago, and you could
Speaker 6: ship something over in weeks. And we moved from that
Speaker 6: to an economy where we're getting it in hours. At times.
Speaker 6: It's a very elaborate system we've gotten used to, and
Speaker 6: the challenge with that begs we're used to it. What
Speaker 6: are we as American consumers willing to to accept? You know,
Speaker 6: I'm walking around.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 6: If you walk around one's own home and you see
Speaker 6: simple things chemicals or cleaning products, that is the global economy.
Speaker 6: And which of those products that you see in your
Speaker 6: home are not based in the middle?
Speaker 2: Not many, not many? And we'll leave it at that dominic.
Speaker 1: Miss Rendino's the CEO of Retail Tech Media and Axis
Speaker 1: Rtmnexus dot com. Uh, following everything in the retail sector
Speaker 1: relative to the terrafs I'm gonna call the best.
Speaker 2: Thanks for jumping on this morning. I appreciate you amazing.
Speaker 5: Thank you so much.
Speaker 1: That forecast the big story. We'll get to it in
Speaker 1: seconds on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 10: The buying and selling of homes isn't for the timid
Speaker 10: or meek. The real estate world can be a vicious
Speaker 10: jungle playing with dangers and pitfalls. Thank god we've got
Speaker 10: Remax time agent Michelle Sloan, the fearless realtor of Sloan
Speaker 10: sells Homes dot com and the Queen of the real
Speaker 10: estate chunkle, it's real estate time, which Michelle Sloan on
Speaker 10: seven hundred della weljewy.
Speaker 1: Good morning, what's going on? Life of mine?
Speaker 8: How are you? I am just you know what. I
Speaker 8: am getting ready for the big storm. So I'm doing
Speaker 8: my search of the internet and the innerweb for the
Speaker 8: best crack pot soup recipes, and right now I'm sort
Speaker 8: of fixating on like a Keethburger soup. Ever heard of that?
Speaker 1: I gotta say this on the heels because you are
Speaker 1: a notorious for a woman of your age, notorious TikTok aficionado.
Speaker 1: And I get home the other day and she is,
Speaker 1: what do we have for dinner? I thought I'd make
Speaker 1: some sushi. Now, looked at her, kind of gave her
Speaker 1: the side. I like, well, first of all, I sushi's awesome,
Speaker 1: but I've never seen you roll sushi. You don't have
Speaker 1: a sushi met you don't have the tools, you don't
Speaker 1: have the knowledge, like I don't. I don't know if
Speaker 1: I eat sushi that you made, I don't think that's
Speaker 1: a good idea.
Speaker 2: It's like no, no, no no.
Speaker 1: I saw this recipe on TikTok and I went, oh
Speaker 1: my god, not not this.
Speaker 8: It's called it's called a sushi bake, And you have
Speaker 8: to admit you were very very skeptical.
Speaker 1: Was extremely skeptical of it because like, what, what's what?
Speaker 2: My god, what's in a tune to bake? Well? You
Speaker 2: cook some rice like like.
Speaker 8: It's a sushi baked rice, plain.
Speaker 2: White rice like okay?
Speaker 1: Then what then you get some tuna fish, oh dear lord,
Speaker 1: and then some fake what is the artificial crab?
Speaker 3: Leg?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 1: And then well then you bake it like holy hell,
Speaker 1: this is going to be awful, and actually was It
Speaker 1: wasn't bad.
Speaker 8: It wasn't bad, right, it was not bad. Although the
Speaker 8: problem is there's just two of us and there's only
Speaker 8: so much sushi bake that you can eat.
Speaker 2: Correct. Yeah, yeah, your portion control. That's why I'm fat.
Speaker 8: So I'm thinking we might try this. You know, we're
Speaker 8: going to be locked in, so you you, along with
Speaker 8: every other person in the entire tri state area, you're
Speaker 8: going to be at Kroger or Meyer or wherever you're
Speaker 8: going to shop today because everybody's getting ready for the biggest.
Speaker 1: Well, the other thing is literally we have went to
Speaker 1: make dinner last night. I had cereal because we have
Speaker 1: nothing in our house, so my my bad friend, because
Speaker 1: you're still laid up with the knee thing.
Speaker 2: So I got to go out and maybe get a
Speaker 2: little some groceries.
Speaker 6: I'm still not.
Speaker 8: Quite driving yet, so that causes some issues with getting
Speaker 8: some more food in the house.
Speaker 1: You want to cheer a change and cheeseburger soup sounds stupid.
Speaker 8: No, it's not. I don't think it is. I'll send
Speaker 8: you the recipe. It's really not that hard.
Speaker 1: Like, I don't know. It seems like chicken seems the
Speaker 1: way to go. I like chicken soup, chicken soup, practice
Speaker 1: some chili. I don't know what to do some it
Speaker 1: feels like a crock pot kind of weekend.
Speaker 8: For sure, you got it.
Speaker 2: I'm good with it. I'm good with all right now.
Speaker 1: Looking actually, I love the storms on the weekend because
Speaker 1: there's there's you haven't a reason not to do anything,
Speaker 1: not to go up, Like, I don't feel as bad
Speaker 1: sitting inside in front of a TV.
Speaker 2: Although you got football.
Speaker 8: It is perfect.
Speaker 5: Yep.
Speaker 8: We can snuggle up, have some soup, watch Net for
Speaker 8: ex or some things something to give in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, go out and shovel the driveway a few dozen times.
Speaker 1: It should be good. So we got all this cold
Speaker 1: air moving in. We've got the latest models here. The
Speaker 1: latest models are showing uh maybe I don't know, in
Speaker 1: excess to ten inches of snow possible here.
Speaker 8: So six inches is what I saw too, depending on
Speaker 8: the area.
Speaker 1: All right, so what are we talking about. I'm guessing
Speaker 1: it's related to the storm besides your your recipes for.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, rice casserole.
Speaker 8: It's a sushi breake. Get it right, it's a sushi
Speaker 8: b I was.
Speaker 1: Talking to Krumbley's a food eat Jack Crumley, and he's like,
Speaker 1: he goes man, I had the best aner.
Speaker 5: What do you have?
Speaker 2: I a rose? I mean you be chicken and rice?
Speaker 1: Yeah, well yeah, but it doesn't sound as good as
Speaker 1: a rosoil.
Speaker 2: Okay, and chicken and rice. It's pretty basic. I got it.
Speaker 3: Thanks.
Speaker 8: I Actually, so I do have some good information. I've
Speaker 8: got information from deep energy. A lot of people are
Speaker 8: struggling because the bills. We had a really cold snap
Speaker 8: in December, and with that cold snap, your January bill
Speaker 8: was bad. The relation, honestly, it was not good. And
Speaker 8: so a lot of people are really struggling. And you know,
Speaker 8: I thought i'd go over some of the things you
Speaker 8: can do. You know, I saw online somebody saying that
Speaker 8: they put on their parker to watch TV. So they
Speaker 8: just because the first thing that duke, the first thing
Speaker 8: that Duke says is a just or program your thermostat
Speaker 8: to the lowest comfortable setting. Well, the lowest comfortable setting.
Speaker 8: Our nephew, I think, what did he say? He turns
Speaker 8: his heat down to like sixty three years?
Speaker 2: Oh no, it's fifty five.
Speaker 4: He had it.
Speaker 2: I'm like fifty five.
Speaker 8: Okay, that's too low. You do have a risk of potentially,
Speaker 8: you know, some frozen pipes, which we want to avoid
Speaker 8: at all costs. Leave your doors open, on your cabinets
Speaker 8: if you're on an outside wall. Those kinds of things
Speaker 8: are very important.
Speaker 2: Might as well just go sleep out under the bushes.
Speaker 8: At that point, with that, you can make an egg
Speaker 8: gloo maybe.
Speaker 2: And it retains heat, believe it or not. A snow
Speaker 2: cave will it does?
Speaker 5: It?
Speaker 2: Does?
Speaker 6: It does?
Speaker 5: So.
Speaker 8: A couple of other helpful tips are manage your water heater.
Speaker 8: And you probably know this more than I do. You know,
Speaker 8: normally we cut our water heater at what one hundred
Speaker 8: and twenty degrees? Sure sounds about right. You can lower
Speaker 8: it just a little bit. That way, you're not constantly
Speaker 8: regenerating and keeping that hot water in your tank. You
Speaker 8: don't want to turn it down too low because you
Speaker 8: don't want to mess with the plane if you've got gas,
Speaker 8: So you know, be careful there.
Speaker 6: I don't know about that.
Speaker 8: You know about those things.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you default to me, is what you're saying.
Speaker 8: I do, I do. But you can definitely turn that down,
Speaker 8: just to scoach.
Speaker 1: Checking your windows and doors, like you know exactly what
Speaker 1: the temperature is.
Speaker 2: You know, it's hard unless you got.
Speaker 8: Th Mom, I don't think you can can you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you can get up to one forties,
Speaker 1: but yeah, anything higher than that you start to you know,
Speaker 1: you start to risk burns and stuff like that.
Speaker 8: But I mean that's what you can trigger down. Here's
Speaker 8: something that you did in the last week. You actually
Speaker 8: added some weather stripping to one of our doors that
Speaker 8: was whistling like crazy with the high winds. And I
Speaker 8: can tell already you know that cuts out. It will definitely.
Speaker 8: Even Duke says that calking ceiling weather stripping leaks can
Speaker 8: say ten to twenty percent in heating costs, So that's
Speaker 8: a big deal. Close the rooms that you're not using
Speaker 8: and turn you could turn off those events in rooms
Speaker 8: that you're you know, like bedrooms if you're not using
Speaker 8: all the bedrooms and that sort of thing that can
Speaker 8: help the other thing, which I've always been really skeptical about.
Speaker 8: But you know, who am I to? You know, I
Speaker 8: don't know challenge this, but.
Speaker 1: Your entire life has been about challenging everything. I could say, wow,
Speaker 1: the sunrise is nice to you say, no, it's not you.
Speaker 1: But yeah, who are you to, Chale? I never challenge
Speaker 1: the experts?
Speaker 2: Holy crap.
Speaker 1: The woman who continually tries to reinvent stuff like, No,
Speaker 1: they've been doing it this way. There's a reason why
Speaker 1: you do it this way is because well I think
Speaker 1: they're wrong. Yeah, literally hundreds of years of them doing
Speaker 1: it this way. You're the one who's going to reinvent
Speaker 1: this thing. You know nothing about it. Let me sit
Speaker 1: back and let me sit back and watch how this
Speaker 1: works out.
Speaker 8: Okay, So how about unplus electronics and they're not in use.
Speaker 8: We have a lot of stuff plugged in, right, especially
Speaker 8: appliances in our kitchen that you don't use every day.
Speaker 8: So the experts, I do get it. You say, unplugged
Speaker 8: the electronics that are not in use. And again this
Speaker 8: is to me, you're not going to unplug your TV
Speaker 8: every time you turn it on.
Speaker 3: Charge.
Speaker 2: I said, there's settings in your TV if you don't
Speaker 2: want the phantom power on as much.
Speaker 8: But yeah, coffee maker first us. But then if you
Speaker 8: have a coffee maker like ours that has it's got
Speaker 8: a reservoir that's heated, you know it's always running. So
Speaker 8: but you have to decide if you have appliances that
Speaker 8: you don't use all the time and you have on
Speaker 8: your counter or plugged in in your bedroom or wherever,
Speaker 8: you can unplug that when you're not using it. Just
Speaker 8: remember then when you go to use it, you're like, first,
Speaker 8: kind of this thing doesn't work.
Speaker 2: Right, it's because it's not plugged.
Speaker 8: The check that that's the first.
Speaker 6: First.
Speaker 2: Everything draws a little bit of power.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, if you have a printer in
Speaker 1: your home office, you have that you mentioned TVs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're just a little bit of trickle.
Speaker 1: But again, if you have so many devices plugged in
Speaker 1: you it's the old adage of you got enough crumbs,
Speaker 1: you make a loaf, and you want to do why's
Speaker 1: my electric bill?
Speaker 2: So hight.
Speaker 1: Well, you've got all these little to draw very little
Speaker 1: amverage that are all kind of on standby mode that
Speaker 1: are causing that power bill. But I don't know if
Speaker 1: I want to round run around unplugging stuff all the
Speaker 1: time either.
Speaker 8: So no, you have to decide what's important. And it's
Speaker 8: a lot of people like you said, I don't want
Speaker 8: to make light of this, because there are a lot
Speaker 8: of people who are struggling. Oh yes, sir, and looking
Speaker 8: and looking for ways to cut back. That's important. And
Speaker 8: then maybe you need some serious assistance because you can't
Speaker 8: pay your bills. So there are definitely some things that
Speaker 8: you can do, call your electric providers a stup or whoever.
Speaker 8: That oftentimes there's an installment plan. You can get an
Speaker 8: extension up to ten days. That may not help you.
Speaker 8: If your bill went from two hundred and fifty dollars
Speaker 8: to five hundred and fifty dollars, which I've seen that
Speaker 8: happen over the last month, you know that little ten
Speaker 8: day extension may not make a big difference if you're
Speaker 8: on the if you have a limited income. So, but
Speaker 8: budget billing could very well help because there are sometimes
Speaker 8: of the year where your bill is not as high
Speaker 8: as it maybe it is in the winter. So if
Speaker 8: you have budget billing and even things out a little bit,
Speaker 8: it doesn't you know what to expect each and every month,
Speaker 8: and that's something that you have to ask for. It
Speaker 8: doesn't just happen automatically, so you may have to do
Speaker 8: a little bit of research. There are also some payment
Speaker 8: assistance programs which I think are really helpful. The very
Speaker 8: easiest one that you can do is to go to
Speaker 8: two one one org. It's a free service that I
Speaker 8: can identify community agencies that help like.
Speaker 1: It's the number two, the number one, the number one
Speaker 1: two eleven dot org correct two one one.
Speaker 8: It's actually through the United Way. You can also call
Speaker 8: to one one and you'll get United Way one of
Speaker 8: the quickest ways because they obviously have a number of resources.
Speaker 8: But the problem is too, just like food banks, a
Speaker 8: lot of our resources are depleted. So a lot of
Speaker 8: these salvation armies and the different kinds of places that
Speaker 8: are available to Catholic charities, they only have a limited
Speaker 8: amount of assistance to go around, and they will do
Speaker 8: their due diligence. I've had I've had a couple of
Speaker 8: companies call me because our renters were having a difficult
Speaker 8: time making ends meet, and again I understand this, but
Speaker 8: they will check to see, hey are they really behind,
Speaker 8: do they really have income, do they really you know,
Speaker 8: are they telling the truth. And that's the thing. There
Speaker 8: some people out there that are looking to scam get
Speaker 8: this free money and or the free assistance, and they
Speaker 8: don't really need it, so it's really hurting the people
Speaker 8: who need the assistance. So to me, that really kind
Speaker 8: of breaks my heart. But I'm going to have all
Speaker 8: of the lists that's the different local assistants, companies, charities,
Speaker 8: things like that available. I'm going to put it on
Speaker 8: my website and on my Facebook page so you can
Speaker 8: take a look at those and you know, contact your provider.
Speaker 8: That's really important. But there I definitely some serious things
Speaker 8: you can do. Thankfully, we're in Cincinnati, so the cold
Speaker 8: weather we're going to have a stretch of the next
Speaker 8: what at least couple of weeks. It's winter after all.
Speaker 8: But the other thing is too if you are you
Speaker 8: want to be a good neighbor. This is part of
Speaker 8: being a person. A good person. Check on your people
Speaker 8: that are next to you, the older people in your lives.
Speaker 8: If they're not your relatives. So what if you have
Speaker 8: the means and the ability to help somebody out, ask
Speaker 8: them if they have food, make sure that they're not
Speaker 8: using their oven for heat, you know, things like that,
Speaker 8: or the space heaters. There's a lot of fires this
Speaker 8: time of year, and over the next weekend. I'm sure
Speaker 8: there's a lot of firefighters who are really really concerned
Speaker 8: because it's dangerous for them. It's also dangerous for the
Speaker 8: people in their homes who are trying to eat with
Speaker 8: the alternative heat sources that may not be as safe
Speaker 8: as just your conventional.
Speaker 2: Right, right.
Speaker 1: So the important thing here is again the list. As
Speaker 1: you said, this is an exhaustive list you put together.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at right now. It's actually really really well done.
Speaker 1: Good job on that help people out who you know
Speaker 1: may not have the means to do this. And I
Speaker 1: think pride sometimes also ignorance are two factors where you go, hey, listen,
Speaker 1: if I just throw this dukebill out and kick the cary,
Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about it. I want to
Speaker 1: think about it. I will address it. It's not going
Speaker 1: to turn out well. And again, they will work with you,
Speaker 1: and I think they're required to do so. If you
Speaker 1: can't pay your bill, and you know, simply turning it
Speaker 1: off is not an option, especially with this implement whether
Speaker 1: the deep cold we're about to get with a little
Speaker 1: snow in that too, So you know you have to
Speaker 1: be able to proactive and go, hey, listen, you know,
Speaker 1: maybe I lost my job, or there's health issues or
Speaker 1: money I don't have enough.
Speaker 2: What should I do? Where could I go?
Speaker 1: There's plenty of people that want to help you, but
Speaker 1: you got to ask and maybe put the pride aside,
Speaker 1: but also the fact you simply can't ignore it. It's
Speaker 1: not going to make it go away. To make it worse,
Speaker 1: you get a disconnect this weekend. It's certainly not advantageous
Speaker 1: for anybody.
Speaker 2: They don't want to do that.
Speaker 10: Now.
Speaker 2: It's easy to vilify big companies, but if you work
Speaker 2: with them, they'll.
Speaker 3: Work with you exactly.
Speaker 8: You don't want to just bury your head in the
Speaker 8: snow drift as it were a work And yeah, that's right,
Speaker 8: all right?
Speaker 2: So all this is up on your page? Where is it?
Speaker 8: I'm going to have it on soon sell homes dot
Speaker 8: com and I'll do it on my Facebook page. So
Speaker 8: and if you need to find the information, the best
Speaker 8: thing is called to one one. It's going to get
Speaker 8: you in touch. It's kind of like a nine one
Speaker 8: one situation. But don't call nine one one, called two
Speaker 8: one one. It'll connect you with United Way of Greater
Speaker 8: Cincinnati and check online. I mean a nice easy Google
Speaker 8: search of energy assistance. That kind of thing is going
Speaker 8: to get you someone vocal and if you need help,
Speaker 8: ask someone. That is really the biggest thing is if
Speaker 8: you need help, don't be too too prideful, don't worry
Speaker 8: about it because we all struggle at times. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 8: our kids struggle, we parents struggle. It's real and we
Speaker 8: have to help one another. And I feel like all
Speaker 8: of the kidding aside because you know, we like to
Speaker 8: do that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's important thing to do, all right. So yeah,
Speaker 1: good luck getting to the Starway. I guess I'll be
Speaker 1: the one out shelvelin. You're not going to do that
Speaker 1: nine time soon.
Speaker 8: No, you know what I have. I'm still healing. Yeah,
Speaker 8: I'm going to be busy making hamburger suit.
Speaker 2: Oh boy.
