Speaker 2: Good morning, and welcome to Saturday Morning. Will the first

4
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 2: mayoral debate change anything in the polls? We'll ask political

5
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 2: analyst J. C. Polonko. Republican candidate for governor Jack Chittarelli

6
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 2: is here to talk about his lawsuit against his opponent,

7
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 2: Democrat Mikey Cheryl. Futurist reporter Kevin Sirelli talks about a

8
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 2: new miracle medical procedure being worked on by Elon Musk

9
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 2: that will help the blind to see, and HR specialist

10
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 2: Greg gan Grandi tells you what to do in the

11
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 2: workplace if your boss is playing favorites and you're not

12
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 2: one of them. But let's start with political analyst JC

13
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 2: Polonko and his thoughts on the first mayoral debate. Wow,

14
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: that was some fireworks, jac Oh.

15
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I told you it was going to be the

16
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 3: thriller in and I think that's what your listeners got.

17
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 2: They tuned in, yeah, especially, and now they seem to

18
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 2: Unfortunately the moderators did too, but they seem to ignore

19
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 2: Curtis Leewa, who was right there in the middle, and

20
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 2: for that fact, because they left him alone because he

21
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 2: didn't get muddied up and he made some great points.

22
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 2: If you had to pick a winner of that debate,

23
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 2: I think it's Curtis Leewa.

24
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 3: Interesting, you know, I'm getting it seems to be that

25
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 3: people are announcing their winner based on who they like

26
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 3: the most on the issues. I'm listening to folks that

27
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 3: said Mamdani one, tons of people that say Cuomo pulled

28
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 3: this off. And now you know, I'm looking online and

29
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 3: there are a lot of people that said that Curtis

30
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 3: Leewa was quintessential New Yorker. He was authentic, and he

31
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 3: came across as competent but bombastic. So, you know, I'm

32
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 3: getting I'm still studying what people are saying. I'm getting

33
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 3: a lot of feedback, and it appears that a lot

34
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 3: of your listeners may have agreed with many of the

35
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 3: points that are Curtic Sie women, and a lot of

36
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 3: your listeners are probably thinking, what would happen if this

37
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 3: was a one and one between Curtis Lee what and

38
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 3: Mamdani in a different universe? But that wasn't the case

39
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 3: last night. Last night was a case where he had

40
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 3: three candidates that were all interviewing for that same job.

41
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,799
Speaker 3: Mam Donnie. Look, I know your listeners don't want to

42
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 3: hear this, but he has incredible stage presence. I told

43
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 3: you yesterday. I told you yesterday that he was critical

44
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 3: for Governor Como to look at that camera and to

45
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 3: speak directly to New Yorkers. And something that Curtically and

46
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 3: Mamdani did was that they were able to look at

47
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 3: the camera, no matter what the question was, look at

48
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 3: the camera and answer directly to New Yorkers. And I

49
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 3: think that often Governor Clmo found himself speaking to reporters

50
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 3: as if it were a press conference. On presence. On

51
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 3: stage presence, Mamdanni wins. Mamdanni wins because he was able

52
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 3: to deflect on absolutely everything. I've never seen anything like it.

53
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 3: It's very difficult for Curtis Lea and Andrew Como to

54
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 3: debate someone who has changed every single position on prostitution.

55
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 3: I never said that on Israel, I never said that

56
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,359
Speaker 3: on Gifted and Talented programs. I never said that. On

57
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 3: every single aspect of misdemeanors, getting rid of them and

58
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 3: closing prisons. Never said it. So it's very interesting to

59
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 3: see how much a sumly minimum. Donni has become a moderate,

60
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 3: become a centrist, and has disavowed things that are online

61
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 3: that he has said repeatedly during the campaign and really

62
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 3: propelled his projectory into where he is today. Now he

63
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 3: disavows ever saying any of these things. And it's very

64
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 3: interesting to see now how he appreciates the police, how

65
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 3: he had to speak to Jews to understand the problems

66
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 3: that Israel has faced, and now still won't condemn globalizing

67
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: into fat and tell Hamas to put their weapons down,

68
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 3: but speaks in such a way, in such parables and

69
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 3: such lofty language that makes you forget that these things

70
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 3: are available for us to actually reference.

71
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, and that's where I thought he got bloodied

72
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 2: up just a little bit. And that was on the

73
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 2: point you just brought up that he he didn't disavow

74
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 2: saying that there Israel shouldn't be a Jewish state, and

75
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 2: he didn't disavow saying that he once was supporting globalized

76
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 2: in Fatata, And so I don't I thought he lost

77
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 2: some points on that. And we'll see if it affects

78
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 2: any of the Jewish voters, because the poll show he's

79
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 2: getting half of the Jewish vote in New York, which

80
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 2: is incredible to me.

81
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 3: He's getting a lot of Jewish supporter And again we

82
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 3: talk about it. The Jewish vote is not a monolith.

83
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 3: You have generational divides. You have practicing Jews versus non

84
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 3: practicing Jews. You have folks that have no very little

85
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 3: connection of any to the plight of Israel and what

86
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 3: Jews have experienced, and they have no problem with hearing

87
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 3: some of the things from Mamdani supporters regarding Israel, cloaked

88
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 3: under the auspices of being anti Zionism. But quite frankly,

89
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 3: when you sit down and think about it, when you

90
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 3: say that you're okay with you getting rid of Israel

91
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 3: and Jews, this is a problem. And no matter how

92
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,479
Speaker 3: much you look at the car and how passionate you

93
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 3: are with your cadence and how you want to let

94
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 3: us know that you care about it, each and every

95
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 3: New Yorker should live and in affordable city. I'm god, really,

96
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 3: he's give me a break. I mean, I can't believe

97
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,600
Speaker 3: that people are home this. I'm sitting there and I'm

98
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 3: looking at I'm looking at the question on experience, and

99
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 3: I think Governor Colmo knocked it out of the park

100
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 3: by far the most experienced candidate, and it was we've

101
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 3: heard that line before. He practiced it. It was great,

102
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 3: Like a great actor he is. He came back and said,

103
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 3: why lie, what I like an experience, you like an integrity,

104
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 3: and you can never make Oh my goodness, gracious, it

105
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 3: was perfect and in not the Governor comov a little bit.

106
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 3: We has to remember the next time around that line

107
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 3: is gonna come like it comes every single time. I

108
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 3: would go in there like the attorney that he was.

109
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 3: You're gonna hear assaults on my integrity. You're gonna hear assaults.

110
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 3: And none of this hides the fact that the assemblement

111
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 3: has a staff of four doesn't have the experience to

112
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 3: be the executive of the most important city on Earth.

113
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 3: And I'll tell you this what I didn't expect, and

114
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 3: I told you I was concerned about this happening. Was

115
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 3: Curtis Lee attacking Governor Clomo the way he did yesterday.

116
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 3: If you consider that the Socialists are the enemy, having

117
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 3: Curtis Lee Wall go in for the juggular on Como

118
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 3: all night yesterday made Clomo be on the defensive, not

119
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 3: only by some of the questions that were coming in

120
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 3: from the moderators who did a good job. But quite frankly,

121
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 3: when you're alleging investigations that the governor says do not exist,

122
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 3: but you bring him up again and again and again,

123
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,559
Speaker 3: the governor's offending himself against the moderators. He's offending himself

124
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 3: against Mombani all night, and then he's offending himself against Stea.

125
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 3: So when you're explaining, you're losing. And it was very

126
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 3: tough for Governor Como to get in the points that

127
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 3: he wanted to make when he's getting assaulted by everyone

128
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 3: up on that stage.

129
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 2: By the way, I took note of your first answer

130
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 2: when I said, I thought just because he didn't take

131
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,799
Speaker 2: any incoming. Curtis Leewa won the debate, and your answer

132
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 2: was interesting. And anytime somebody says interesting, it's usually I

133
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 2: don't agree with you at all. I don't even know

134
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 2: where you.

135
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 3: Got that, Nourtis, Curtis Quinton says New York. I mean,

136
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,479
Speaker 3: what are we going to say? What is there to say?

137
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 3: The guy knows New York. The guy knows every detail

138
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 3: of New York. What I'm concerned about it a lot

139
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 3: of your listeners are concerned about.

140
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 2: Is these poll numbers yeah, absolutely, numbers.

141
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 3: Still have him. That concerns me. So I'm sitting there

142
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 3: thinking Curtis is an amazing guy, would be a thousand

143
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 3: times better than any socialists, But the poll numbers show

144
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 3: that he's exactly the number that's keeping us from beating socialism.

145
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 3: In November, the.

146
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 2: Moderators didn't do him any favors either, of which I

147
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 2: thought was kind of embarrassing on their party. They were

148
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 2: ignoring him to the point where I had to keep saying, hey,

149
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 2: guess what I'm here too. Thanks so much, It was

150
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,360

00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 1: Back now to the wo R Saturday Morning Show with

158
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: Larry Minty.

159
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 2: Well, it is a modern day miracle made possible by

160
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 2: Elon Musk. Futurist reporter Kevin's really tells us about Neurolink,

161
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 2: and I've talked to you about this before. Kevin, it's

162
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes, right, and with that you're going to learn

163
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 2: something you didn't know.

164
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, It's it's like I always say, come down my

165
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 5: rabbit hole. And now we've got a London episodes. I'm like,

166
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 5: we talk about robots in one episode, and then we

167
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 5: talk about you know, civilization, starter kits, and then I'm

168
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 5: interviewing an astronaut and then it's quick conversations. And I

169
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 5: will say, I'm always thinking to myself, I do wish

170
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 5: I had more time. But the thing I'm upsets with today, Larry,

171
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 5: as I'm driving back from Penn State, I was speaking

172
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 5: at my alma mater, and I gotta say, I love

173
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 5: pet State. I mean, it is a beautiful campus this

174
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 5: time of year.

175
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 2: But did you say goodbye to James Franklin the football coach?

176
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 2: Did you see him?

177
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 5: Well, it's all actually, you know, you can break some news.

178
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 5: As I be sarcastic now, I said, listen, if you

179
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 5: guys want to fire me and get me me, have

180
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 5: fifty million dollars, but gladly, gladly take it. You know,

181
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 5: like what the heck is going on up there? But uh,

182
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 5: but I love that place. It's it's happy Valley for

183
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 5: a reason, man, But I got my girl stickies. Enough

184
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 5: of that promoting the show Hello Future. So I remember

185
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 5: when I was a kid, and I remember you would

186
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 5: walk down the street and you'd say that person had

187
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 5: a nose job or other work done, or that person

188
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 5: Oh okay again, well okay, well you know, okay, I

189
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 5: mean whatever. So, and I'm gonna be not crass on

190
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 5: your program because it's still early, right, so we maybe

191
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 5: that person has mark time. I look forward to the

192
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 5: day where we're saying, has that person had a brain job?

193
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 5: Has that person had a brain implant? Because these micro

194
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 5: chips and elon musk and neurallink and everything that's happening,

195
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 5: I mean, the future is here. Uh there's you know,

196
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 5: we can talk about them. We'll go into it on

197
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 5: the show about you know, the long term implications of

198
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 5: having bad actors like China and Russia controlling the chips

199
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 5: that are going to be implanted into our brains. But

200
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 5: in the short term, I mean talk about a medical

201
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 5: miracle to be able to see someone who's lost a

202
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 5: limb be able to have a brain ship and they're

203
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 5: able to use their prosthetic arm immediately, or they're able

204
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 5: to regain speech and be able to communicate via computer.

205
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 5: I think that's an awesome, awesome thing for these people.

206
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: Absolutely. We talked about this at length back when they

207
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 2: were Elon Musk was getting just railed when they were

208
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 2: going after him, when they were they were wanting they

209
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,199
Speaker 2: wanted him to be hung by his feet in the hall.

210
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 2: And what I said was, this is a guy that's

211
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 2: going to help the paralyzed walk again, He's going to

212
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 2: help the blind. See, he's not a villain. This man's

213
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 2: not a villain because he's trying to cut the government.

214
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 2: He's a miracle worker. And this is the primary example

215
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 2: of that. Please talk a little bit more about it,

216
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 2: because I think this is extremely important topic because this

217
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 2: is the future and it's not that far away, so.

218
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,439
Speaker 5: It's already here. And so I think, you know, my

219
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 5: dad just haid heart surgery. He had stints place in

220
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 5: his hearts. And we live in a time now, Larry,

221
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 5: where that's not uncommon, you know what I mean. I mean,

222
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 5: no one blinks when you say I've got to have

223
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 5: my kniehborplace or my hip orplace. And so why don't

224
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 5: we have that same preventative care on our brains, and

225
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 5: so especially when it comes to Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's,

226
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 5: we're on the cusp of these brain technologies being preventative

227
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 5: and to be able to get preventative health care for

228
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 5: our brain, which is the engine for our entire lives.

229
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 5: We already have these conversations, by the way, I mean

230
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 5: it dates back to when your mom and dad would

231
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,319
Speaker 5: say eat your vegetables it's good for your brain, or

232
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,439
Speaker 5: an apple a day keeps the doctor away, or even

233
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 5: a couple of years ago with those zenpech when that

234
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 5: conversation really took off. So this idea that somehow brain

235
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,439
Speaker 5: ships are not going to be able to help us,

236
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 5: especially as a nanotechnology, and what do they ultimately do?

237
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 5: All they do if your brain is a bunch of

238
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 5: wires and you think of an electrician in your mind

239
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 5: going into the ceiling or the wall, and you see

240
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 5: all of the different colored wires and maybe one of

241
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 5: them short circuited. The brain ship essentially is just a fix.

242
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 5: It's an ability to get the wires and to jumpstart

243
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 5: the wires again, to connect to them, and to be

244
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 5: able to help get your brain back to functioning. And

245
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 5: so I think that's the very simple version of this.

246
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 5: But from a longer term perspective, you know, in the

247
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 5: next fifty seventy five, one hundred, two hundred years, Yeah,

248
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 5: there's national security systemic questions that should be asked. I

249
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 5: believe in innovation and an America democracy, and you know,

250
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 5: I want to make sure that American companies and innovators

251
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 5: are at the forefront of this and not bad actors

252
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 5: who are controlling the brain ships.

253
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,719
Speaker 2: But Elon Musk Company is far out in front of this, aren't.

254
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 5: They, Yes, for sure. But there's also other industries supporting it.

255
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 5: And that's what I think. From an economics and I'll

256
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 5: put on my old Bloomberg hap for a second. From

257
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 5: an economics standpoint, the data that is required to do this,

258
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 5: the manufacturing to build these chips, in addition to the

259
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 5: cyber secure networks and systems that this neuralink would have

260
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 5: to operate on. It's an entire new industry. And that

261
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 5: I really hope is what Hello future ultimately gets into

262
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 5: and that inspires people to think beyond. Is that this

263
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,839
Speaker 5: shift and the systems that we're all building for our

264
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,839
Speaker 5: future is you know, it starts with, as you said,

265
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 5: a blind person being able to see or someone who's

266
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,199
Speaker 5: who can't who can't walk being able to walk again.

267
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 2: Kevin, I'm so glad we talked about this story today.

268
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 2: I was amazed at it when I first heard about it,

269
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 2: and people can learn more about it, I'm sure on

270
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 2: your podcast, Kevin's really. Kevin's really host of the podcast

271
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 2: Hello Future on the iHeart Radio app and he talks

272
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 2: about things like this all of the time, things that

273
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 2: aren't on the radar but should be. Kevin, it was

274
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 2: good to talk to you. Have a good weekend.

275
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 3: Thank you, Larry.

276
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 5: I appreciate you as always.

277
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 2: Jack Chittarelli, Republican candidate for governor of New Jersey, is

278
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 2: suing his opponent for something she accused him of during

279
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 2: a televised debate. Jack's going to be with us when

280
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 2: you're a coworker, treats you like you're their therapist, telling

281
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 2: you way too much about their problems in the workplace.

282
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 2: HR specialist Greg gm Grande will tell you what to

283
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 2: do now.

284
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: More of the WOOR Saturday Morning Show and Larry Mente

285
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 1: Welcome back.

286
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 2: At the New Jersey gubernatorial debate, Democratic candidate Mikey Cheryl

287
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 2: accused Republican candidate Jack Chittarelli several times of killing tens

288
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 2: of thousands of people because his company built a website

289
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 2: for an opioid company. I have never ever heard something

290
00:14:59,600 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 2: like this.

291
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 6: I think the people you got addicted and died deserve

292
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 6: better than you. And I'll tell you, yeah, tens of

293
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 6: thousands here as you published misinformation. You then went on

294
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 6: to kill tens of thousands of people in New Jersey,

295
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 6: including child book and I think you're trying to divert

296
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 6: from the fact that you killed tens of thousands of people.

297
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 2: My first thought was she's desperate, and then that she

298
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 2: was told that she really has to go after him.

299
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 2: After that, I thought, can you be sued for that?

300
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 2: Because she accused him of Jack Chittarelli of killing tens

301
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 2: of thousands of people for building a website that would

302
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 2: never go over in court. And you know what, Jack

303
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 2: Chittarelli is suing her. Jack Chittarelli, Republican candidate for New

304
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 2: Jersey governor, is with us.

305
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 4: Now.

306
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 2: I was as you just heard me talk about Jack,

307
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 2: I was stunned. I have never heard something like that

308
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 2: before during a political debate. I'm sure you were stunned.

309
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 4: Too, Larry, You're not alone.

310
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 7: I was stunned. It was an unbelievable, surreal moment. It

311
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 7: was baseless, it was reckless. It's afamatory, and I'll be

312
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 7: filing suit. We're not David lying all throughout this campaign.

313
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 7: The whole campaign has been based on a stack of lies,

314
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 7: her disdained for the president that she flies at helicopter,

315
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 7: none of which is going to fix New Jersey.

316
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 4: But she's not getting away with this one.

317
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 7: We're getting advisory opinion from ELEK, which governs campaign finance

318
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 7: in New Jersey, and as soon as we have their decision,

319
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 7: we'll be filing our suit.

320
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 2: I'm getting tired of these polls, Jack, They're all over

321
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 2: the place. They can't make up their mind if you're tied,

322
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 2: or you're behind, or you're ahead. I what is You've

323
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 2: been through this before you went through this four years ago, Larry.

324
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 7: The ones that have me behind are most times the

325
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 7: university polls, which don't invest in necessary money.

326
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 4: It's more of a survey than a pole.

327
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 7: But those have me down by maybe six points or

328
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 7: seven points. The same ones that had Kamala Harris win

329
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 7: in the state last year by twenty and had me

330
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 7: down last time by twelve with a couple of weeks ago.

331
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 7: All the other polls that are more credible have this

332
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 7: as a dead heat or me with a one or

333
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 7: two point lead.

334
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 4: We're not taking anything for granted.

335
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 7: I'll finish strong with he's last eighteen and we're going

336
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 7: to deliver a win if the debates proved anything. No

337
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 7: candidate has never been more ill prepared, unqualified, or more desperate,

338
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 7: no I have.

339
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 2: I've been really frankly surprised at Mikey Cheryl because I

340
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 2: you know, I did the TV show in New Jersey

341
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 2: for a long time. I talked to you several times,

342
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 2: but I talked to Mikey Cheryl and I always kind

343
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 2: of liked her. This is a different person. I don't

344
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 2: know what she's trying to do, but she's just downright

345
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 2: unlikable because she's doing something that she's being told to do,

346
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,880
Speaker 2: and that's going the attack against you, and I don't

347
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 2: believe that's naturally her. She's being something that she's not

348
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 2: and you always lose when you try to do that.

349
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 2: I'm sure you've been surprised at her tactics.

350
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 7: I really have the extent of the lies, the consistency

351
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 7: of the lies, the recklessness. And then how about this, now,

352
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 7: I can't remember if it was The New York Post,

353
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 7: New York Times, be forty yesterday that the very companies

354
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 7: that she's accusing me being in bed with she was

355
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 7: taking money from. She took campaign contributions from the very

356
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 7: company she's accusing me of colluding with. So again, this

357
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:14,680
Speaker 7: is recklessness, it's irresponsible, it's defamatory, and we'll be filing suit.

358
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 2: Let's get to your lawsuit because I'm sure that you're

359
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 2: drawing it up right now. What are you going to

360
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,360
Speaker 2: say in that lawsuit? And what are you looking for.

361
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 7: That She tried to tarnish my reputation, my family name,

362
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 7: and she was reckless in the statements that she made.

363
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 7: She specifically said three times that I killed ten thousand people,

364
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 7: including children. Larry, I mean, you've been at this business

365
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 7: a long time. Have you ever heard anything on that?

366
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 7: But we're not going to tolerate it. We're going to

367
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 7: file our suit.

368
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,200
Speaker 2: No, if I was on the news and I said

369
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 2: something like that, I'd be fired.

370
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 4: I'd be you.

371
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 2: It is so out of bounds to say something like that.

372
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 2: And I notice now when she talks about it, she's

373
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 2: backed off of that. I ys, have you noticed that?

374
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 4: Yep, hey, I have. But you know what I think

375
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:02,880
Speaker 4: really happened, Larry, she cracked.

376
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 7: I mean the pressure of the world now knowing that

377
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 7: she was punished at the Naval Academy. She's built her

378
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 7: entire political brand around her attendance at the Naval Academy.

379
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 7: We know now that she was punished. She wasn't allowed

380
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 7: to walk in the graduation name was not listed a

381
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 7: commencement exercise program. Has changed her tune three reasons three

382
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 7: times as to why. The fact that she broke federal

383
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 7: law on stock trades and stock reporting as a congresswoman,

384
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 7: the fact that she was trading defense stocks while sitting

385
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 7: on the House Armed Services Committee, and the fact that

386
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 7: she tripled her net worth And can't explain how who

387
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,879
Speaker 7: wouldn't know if they made seven million dollars in six

388
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 7: years time?

389
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 2: You know, during a midterm election, one of the things

390
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 2: that really wins or loses is enthusiasm or lack of

391
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 2: enthusiasm when you are out on the campaign trail. Have

392
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 2: people reacted to this? Are they as incensed as you are?

393
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 4: They're incensed about this.

394
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 7: They look at the Marsha Kramer interview on CBS where

395
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 7: she couldn't answer the question what do you do on

396
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 7: day one? They look at the Charlemagne interview where she

397
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 7: couldn't answer how they tripled her net worth, and they

398
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 7: just feel that this is somebody it's ill prepared and

399
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 7: unqualified for the job. But I will tell you on

400
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 7: my side, Larry, the energy has been off the charts,

401
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 7: and I'm sure you've noticed. I'm even getting the endorsements

402
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 7: of prominent Democrats around the state.

403
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,959
Speaker 4: Not a single Republican has endorsed my opponent.

404
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 2: No, We've talked about you a lot, and we've talked

405
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 2: about that, and I want to know because you's happened

406
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 2: to say many many times. We've played sound of you

407
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 2: over and over again. I'm gonna do this on day one.

408
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,439
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do this on day one. I'm gonna do

409
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 2: this on day one. How many things are you gonna

410
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 2: do on day one and how are you prioritizing them?

411
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 4: Well, Larry, I'm gonna do everything I possibly can on

412
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 4: day one. Here.

413
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 7: The bad news is Phil Murphy's put a lot of

414
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 7: bad policy in place. The good news is many of

415
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 7: those policies were never codified by the legislature. Oh, they

416
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 7: can be reversed by executive order that includes the Immigrant

417
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 7: Trust Directive. So on day one, Executive Order number one,

418
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,080
Speaker 7: no town in our state will be the sanctuary said,

419
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 7: and we will not be a sanctuary state that encourages

420
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 7: illegal immigration and handcuffs our local police in different ways.

421
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 7: Let them do their job. Also, on day one, I'm

422
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 7: bringing everybody back to work. Try getting to somebody on

423
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,120
Speaker 7: the phone. Try getting your issue resolved. I think it's

424
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 7: embarrassing for New Jersey that you can walk into a

425
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 7: DMV office in Florida today and walk out an hour

426
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 7: later with your real ID. Try getting your real ID

427
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 7: in New Jersey. They're giving you an appointment in January.

428
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:26,239
Speaker 7: Are you kidding me?

429
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 2: Well, i'll tell you what. You just got Natalie's vote.

430
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 2: When you were talking about the last issue, she started cheering.

431
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 4: I mean, it's a joke. Last night I was trying

432
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 4: to get an appointment. Oh my goodness, January. I find

433
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 4: it embarrassing.

434
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,479
Speaker 7: This is what makes people lose faith in government, hate government,

435
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 7: and hate their taxes. When you pay a premium for

436
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 7: something and the quality sucks, you hate it. And that's

437
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 7: the case in New Jersey. But executive voter number three, Larry,

438
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 7: we're pulling out a Regie. That carbon tax policy has

439
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 7: been a disaster for New Jersey. I could save three hundred,

440
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 7: five hundred million dollars a year for rape payers by

441
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 7: pulling out a Reggie. The Democratic governor of Pennsylvania is

442
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 7: not in Reggie the regional greenhouse gas initiative.

443
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 4: We shouldn't be either.

444
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,399
Speaker 2: Jack Chitarell, a Republican candidate for New Jersey governor. Always

445
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 2: great to talk to you, Jack, Thank you so much.

446
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 2: Good luck with the lawsus. Thank you, guys, appreciate it.

447
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 2: Coming up next is your boss playing favorites at work?

448
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,920
Speaker 2: Greg g and Grande is with us next to tell

449
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 2: you the best way to handle that problem.

450
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:32,120
Speaker 1: Here again is Larry Minty with the WOOR Saturday Mornings Show.

451
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 4: Welcome back.

452
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 2: Did you know that HR specialist Greg g and Grande

453
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 2: will answer your questions at go to greg dot com.

454
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 2: This week Greg got two questions about bosses that play

455
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 2: favorites and co workers who share way too much about

456
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 2: their personal lives in the workplace. Greg is here to

457
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 2: tell us how to handle those workplace dilemmas. And so

458
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,879
Speaker 2: you're ready, Greg, I'm just going to read a couple

459
00:22:58,880 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 2: of these.

460
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 8: I'm ready, Larry. Let me first say sure that you

461
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 8: are my favorite radio host. Now go ahead with your

462
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 8: first question.

463
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 2: What brought that on? Exactly?

464
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 8: Well, it relates to your first question.

465
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, here we go. I work on a team

466
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 2: where our manager clearly plays favorites. Certain colleagues consistently get

467
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 2: the best assignments, more praise, and more flexibility. It's starting

468
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:36,880
Speaker 2: to affect morale. I'm torn between speaking up or staying silent.

469
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 2: What can I do without making things worse? And that

470
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 2: comes from your favorite radio host?

471
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,719
Speaker 8: Yes, exactly, and that was, you know, one of my points.

472
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 8: Let's face it. The truth is that like many teachers

473
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 8: have pets, many bosses do have their favorites. And that

474
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 8: can be a result of several factors. It could be

475
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 8: just sucking up like I was to you, Larry, but

476
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 8: it actually happens to be the truth. Or it can

477
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 8: be great chemistry that you happen to have with your boss,

478
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 8: or frequently it's really because that person demonstrates great job

479
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,440
Speaker 8: performance and they make the boss's life easier. The boss

480
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 8: can always count on them. Now, a good boss shouldn't

481
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 8: let others feel like there is a favorite, but sometimes

482
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:35,360
Speaker 8: it's hard to hide and maybe none of those factors

483
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 8: are at play in your relationship with your boss or

484
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 8: how your boss views you. So what can you do well?

485
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 8: The person who wrote in said, should they remain silent?

486
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 8: Remaining silent is the best way to ensure that you

487
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 8: remain unhappy. So you have to do something because unhappiness

488
00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 8: at work only leads to more resentment. As this person's that,

489
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 8: it's affecting morale and when you're when your morale is affected,

490
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 8: then it affects your performance. So at the end of

491
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:11,640
Speaker 8: the day, you're having an adverse impact on yourself more

492
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 8: than you are on the company by staying silent and

493
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 8: just building up this resentment. So you do need to

494
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 8: say something. But speaking up and accusing your boss of

495
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:26,439
Speaker 8: unfairness and playing favorites, that's not typically a good career

496
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,160
Speaker 8: strategy either for success.

497
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 2: You're not going to become his favorite that way. No,

498
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 2: that's strategy.

499
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 8: But you know, if you speak to you if you

500
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,360
Speaker 8: ask to speak to your boss privately, and don't make

501
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 8: it about something your boss is or isn't doing, or

502
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 8: someone else, but about you and your career ambitions and

503
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 8: your desire to do more on the team and more

504
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 8: for the boss to take on more and hire work

505
00:25:55,720 --> 00:26:00,040
Speaker 8: and asking for feedback about what you do well and

506
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 8: what your boss thinks you can do better and how

507
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 8: you can get better at it. It makes your boss

508
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:10,199
Speaker 8: vested in your growth and development, which can improve the

509
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 8: relationship because now you're asking for their feedback and their

510
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 8: advice and their mentorship in a way, and so that's

511
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 8: one way to improve your situation. It's also a way

512
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 8: to find out if there's an issue with your performance

513
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 8: that your boss feels and maybe that's why you're feeling

514
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 8: kind of left out. But the only way to improve

515
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 8: this is actually to say something, and that's that's the

516
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 8: best approach.

517
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 2: I love that answer, and I love this next question.

518
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,919
Speaker 2: I love my co workers how it starts, But I

519
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 2: did not sign up to be their part time therapist

520
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 2: by lunch. I've heard about their ex, their cat's gluten allergy,

521
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,679
Speaker 2: and their cousins third divorce. I want to be kind,

522
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 2: but I also want to get my work done. How

523
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:59,360
Speaker 2: do I gently tell them without sounding like I don't care?

524
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 8: Well? I think we have all worked with that person

525
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 8: who doesn't seem to have boundaries. It just won't shut

526
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 8: up about their personal lives or definitely shares too much

527
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 8: too frequently. They can disperse a breakroom faster than someone

528
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:24,880
Speaker 8: microwaving fish for lunch. You've seen it, We've all had

529
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 8: that experience. Someone you do care about, then you should

530
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 8: tell them that you really do care and you enjoy

531
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 8: your conversations, but you really have to catch up on

532
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 8: a ton of work, and can we maybe talk about

533
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,879
Speaker 8: this later after work? Do you want to grab a

534
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 8: bite or a drink? And every time it comes up

535
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 8: at work, if you keep saying I really care, I

536
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,239
Speaker 8: want to help, but maybe we can talk about it

537
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 8: after work or or you know, during lunch or something

538
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 8: that hopefully that they will get the message. Or again,

539
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 8: depending on the relationship, if it's banal banter about their

540
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 8: cats gluten allergy, you can make fun of it and

541
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 8: then change the subject. Do this enough times in that

542
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 8: kind of way with someone you care about, and eventually

543
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 8: they should get the message. And if they don't, then

544
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,719
Speaker 8: I think again, as a friend over lunch, having a

545
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 8: direct heart to heart like you would with any friend

546
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,919
Speaker 8: outside of work, about you know, what's working what's not

547
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 8: working is always a good approach.

548
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 2: So I love this. Let's do this again Greg. If
