Speaker 4: Well, I was sold yesterday to remember to tell you
Speaker 4: guys something okay, and so I just wanted to make
Speaker 4: sure if we're best, if we're still on track for this.
Speaker 5: Time out, Do you have any idea what it is?
Speaker 5: Zero clue and neither nor no now? And I asked
Speaker 5: you to remember I remember because I think we were
Speaker 5: going to make it our our question of the day.
Speaker 2: Yes, GLP one.
Speaker 3: There you go.
Speaker 4: How many of the audience are on GLP ones? If
Speaker 4: that was gonna you said, remember that, that's gonna be
Speaker 4: our question of the day too. Yeah done, because you
Speaker 4: wanted to have an idea of just how many.
Speaker 2: And I think I thought I had another JLP one story,
Speaker 2: but I do not, so it doesn't work there.
Speaker 5: But either way, but we'll make it the question of
Speaker 5: the day. How many our audience are on GLP one? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: JP ones.
Speaker 2: I mean you know, I mean, if I had to
Speaker 2: guess right now, I mean I think the country is
Speaker 2: like almost eighteen percent of the countries on them now
Speaker 2: or something, right, It's ridiculous. It literally is like one
Speaker 2: out of five people.
Speaker 5: Now, So do you think our audience, our YouTube chat
Speaker 5: audience will be higher or lower than the national average
Speaker 5: of eighteen percent.
Speaker 2: I think it'll be lower. I think it'll be lower
Speaker 2: than the national They're a svelt bunch. I just I
Speaker 2: don't know, man. I The thing is to be honest
Speaker 2: with you with the GLP one thing. You know, I'll
Speaker 2: give you an example, like back in the day, if
Speaker 2: you got that stomach staple or you got the gastro
Speaker 2: bypass or the U was it the stomach band or what?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, gastric Yeah.
Speaker 2: Like any of these surgeries I think had a kind
Speaker 2: of a weird thing when people got them, a stigma. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and there's a stigma about it, like you know, you're
Speaker 2: kind of But for some reason, the GLP one thing,
Speaker 2: although it's just a pill version of those therapies, does
Speaker 2: not have that same stigma. It's it had it for
Speaker 2: about a month and then all of a sudden after
Speaker 2: everybody saw that every byproduct of this drug was also
Speaker 2: a positive.
Speaker 5: So that is it's not just for some reason. It
Speaker 5: is because there are so many other positive things that
Speaker 5: he's doing. Therefore it's like, well it's not you shouldn't
Speaker 5: be shamed for taking it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, if anything, you're shamed for not taking
Speaker 4: it exactly.
Speaker 2: Like wait a minute, it's like a wonder druve.
Speaker 3: Wait a minute, how come you're fat?
Speaker 2: And the funny thing is when this thing was first introduced,
Speaker 2: it was as expensive as one of those surgeries, Like
Speaker 2: it wasn't it like eight hundred bucks a month or something.
Speaker 2: When they first introduced the semi.
Speaker 3: Glue tie thing, I think even more than that.
Speaker 2: Right, So, I mean, and I think it only lasted
Speaker 2: like that for the first like year, year and a
Speaker 2: half or was that expensive? Then? You know, once the
Speaker 2: popularity became evident, I think people are like, woud you
Speaker 2: figure out to get this in everybody's hand? But still,
Speaker 2: when you consider one of those surgeries, what would a
Speaker 2: bypass surgery cost a couple thousand bucks.
Speaker 3: Oh ten to fifteen?
Speaker 2: Was it really?
Speaker 4: I know someone who traveled to Mexico but has still
Speaker 4: done but still one back then, was it really?
Speaker 5: I don't know. It just I know it's kind of up.
Speaker 5: At least I don't think you get surgery for under
Speaker 5: five Graand.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was an outpatient I thought it
Speaker 2: was an outpatient thing, dude, right or no? Am I
Speaker 2: way wrong there?
Speaker 4: I don't believe it would be outpatient because it is.
Speaker 4: I mean that that's fairly involved surgery.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. Maybe I just don't know enough
Speaker 2: about it. I for some reason, I thought it was
Speaker 2: a two suitures going in through the stomach and they
Speaker 2: did most of it by like cam and it was
Speaker 2: just a basically a tightening or a making the stomach smaller.
Speaker 4: I guess it depends, like if you've had gastric band
Speaker 4: surgery or you've had the stomach stapling.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, but you know now with the GLP ones
Speaker 2: and of course you know, medical insurance being so high,
Speaker 2: I would think that most people would like applaud people
Speaker 2: forgetting on it because obviously if you're smaller, thinner, you
Speaker 2: have less weight. There there are fewer medical issues you
Speaker 2: would have to deal with link your long term, which
Speaker 2: would obviously reduce the insurance output for for the population.
Speaker 2: It's the same thing with pregnancy or birth control.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 5: You figure, if pay for the birth control, then that's
Speaker 5: saving you a lot more expenses the road, yes, as
Speaker 5: opposed to them having a having a baby and then
Speaker 5: caring for the baby that's now on that same insurance plan.
Speaker 5: So I think that you know the phrase and ounce
Speaker 5: of prevention is worth a pound of cure. That ounce
Speaker 5: of prevention saves the insurance company money as well. I
Speaker 5: see the same thing with GLP ones. I'm sure, Hey,
Speaker 5: they've run the numbers before anyone else as Yeah, so
Speaker 5: they know at certain price point when it's you know,
Speaker 5: cost effective, and I believe it's Social Security or Medicare
Speaker 5: is now covering part of it.
Speaker 2: I'm part of the plant.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's what Greg Rossler was telling us last
Speaker 2: time he was in.
Speaker 4: But somebody did just text us at seven seven zero
Speaker 4: three one saying most of those gastric surgeries are still
Speaker 4: very expensive and most insurance companies won't cover it.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, maybe I just had that wrong there. But
Speaker 2: you know, when you look at the price when this
Speaker 2: thing first bumped in eight hundred bucks a month, it
Speaker 2: doesn't take much math to figure out how expensive that
Speaker 2: can be in a year. You're talking about, you know,
Speaker 2: nine thousand plus dollars a year. So you know, theoretically,
Speaker 2: if you're on this for you know, a couple of years,
Speaker 2: you've paid for the gastric bypass and the other thing too.
Speaker 2: Is the only downside we heard of this initially was
Speaker 2: this weird thing that would happen with your stomach.
Speaker 3: The stomach paralysis.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but we haven't really heard about like a real
Speaker 2: giant outbreak of that, and we know we have millions
Speaker 2: of users.
Speaker 4: Well I know, for for me, the bigger issue in
Speaker 4: the beginning when they started being used for weight loss
Speaker 4: was what it took away from those who needed it
Speaker 4: for diabetes. Right, you're right, right, and how exorbitantly expensive
Speaker 4: it can be for someone who needs it because of
Speaker 4: their blood sugar versus someone who's going to get the
Speaker 4: break on price because they're using it for weight loss.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know, we've.
Speaker 4: Heard of ozempic face, We've heard ozembic ass, you know,
Speaker 4: where you lose so much weight. So rapid breath was
Speaker 4: that big breath which we also heard a lot off
Speaker 4: of the the Atkins diet, which was all proteen a
Speaker 4: lot of key tones in your breath. Yea, yeah, So
Speaker 4: I about Atkins anger. I don't know if there's anything
Speaker 4: like that with GLP ones, but I've just heard about
Speaker 4: the physical effects.
Speaker 2: Atkins anger is simply like if you don't get a
Speaker 2: French fry, you kill. That's or if you don't get
Speaker 2: one strand of pasta. Everybody in olive garden dies via
Speaker 2: breadstick death. That's what happens with that. Yeah. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: then you eat the weapons, you eat the web, right exactly.
Speaker 2: He stabbed forty five old people to death with a
Speaker 2: breadstick and then eat it. Yeah yeah.
Speaker 4: Somebody said that they had a family member pay sixteen
Speaker 4: thousand dollars for that procedure back in twenty fifty just
Speaker 4: ten years ago, so add in another ten I would
Speaker 4: imagine now. But that's why you see so many people
Speaker 4: going overseas to have these procedures done.
Speaker 2: Let me ask, though, I mean, would it would it
Speaker 2: would it really would the price increase or would they
Speaker 2: have to get more competitive as people started choosing either
Speaker 2: between a lap band surgery or a gl P one, right?
Speaker 2: I mean you would think that, you know, the people
Speaker 2: who are providing the surgeries kind of look at the
Speaker 2: data and go, well, I mean, we're losing this pill.
Speaker 2: I mean, we can't keep charging sixteen K for this.
Speaker 4: I don't know if I feel comfortable going into a
Speaker 4: surgical center with a bogo.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you guys have for.
Speaker 3: Yeah is there a two for one here?
Speaker 2: You go to my aldi surgery app and you see
Speaker 2: what it says.
Speaker 5: And with surgery, I think it's it's not just the procedure,
Speaker 5: it's what they're doing.
Speaker 2: It's the hospital, it's the equipment and everything's five thousand
Speaker 2: more when you get into a hospital. Yes, yeah, give
Speaker 2: me the pill. Every day of the week. I wonder
Speaker 2: what the threshold is because I would last time I
Speaker 2: did my uh my update or my health update, or whatever.
Speaker 4: What do you call it your annual? I was the
Speaker 4: one who never goes to the doctor able to the guy.
Speaker 2: Actually, my doctor actually suggested a GLP one because I
Speaker 2: was over weight, and they called me pre diabetic, right,
Speaker 2: And I am like, there's no way I'm taking that,
Speaker 2: not right now, because I don't feel like I'm overweight
Speaker 2: enough to take a GLP one. I am. I do
Speaker 2: carry a little bit of weight, but I look like
Speaker 2: every average white dude out there. You know. It's a
Speaker 2: little bit of fifty year old belly. Yeah, and that's it.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think six one five to twenty
Speaker 2: six is too bad, not at all. But the thing
Speaker 2: I'm supposed to weigh one hundred and eighty pounds. Yeah, dude,
Speaker 2: what do you weigh?
Speaker 7: Like?
Speaker 2: Two o five? Jack one ninety or something? He just
Speaker 2: lay with a fifteen. I just gave myself the same thing.
Speaker 2: What do you weigh right now? Right now? I weigh
Speaker 2: today one nine?
Speaker 3: Don't even ask.
Speaker 2: Does it look like I weigh thirty pounds more than Jack? No?
Speaker 3: But I am so bad when it gets men's weight,
Speaker 3: I would.
Speaker 2: Want me to stand next to Wow, didn't see that coming,
Speaker 2: Old Jack Low hanging fruit. Bradshaf Yeah, that happens with age.
Speaker 2: I don't feel like a weigh thirty pounds more than Bradshaw.
Speaker 2: You stand us next to each other, we don't look
Speaker 2: all that different.
Speaker 3: I gotta tell you, did that hurt us?
Speaker 8: Hair?
Speaker 4: Did that hurt as much as getting the AARP stuff
Speaker 4: in the mal.
Speaker 2: Oh Man, I got that stuff. I threw it at
Speaker 2: the I threw it at the guy who delivered it.
Speaker 4: My watcher says, I suggested g lp one. I'm surprising
Speaker 4: to look at him and say, yeah, well, f you too.
Speaker 2: Look I gotta go back to the summitch the in
Speaker 2: a couple days. And if he looks at me and says,
Speaker 2: it's mon jarno free, I'm I don't know, dude. We
Speaker 2: have to arm wrestle on that little thing there without
Speaker 2: a paper to make sure we got it right.
Speaker 5: Every time an ARP something comes into mail, I'm like, honey,
Speaker 5: you got mail.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get so mad. I could eventually start looking
Speaker 2: at those deals because I like a good deal, and
Speaker 2: eventually you're gonna have to start paying attention to it.
Speaker 2: You're like, you do listen, you look at that stupid
Speaker 2: mavacacine you're like injured for how much?
Speaker 4: And not only that, you don't have to be of
Speaker 4: a certain age anymore. They invite anyone.
Speaker 2: That's a damn lie. You don't start getting that stuffing
Speaker 2: after you're fifty years.
Speaker 5: Old, right, make me cry? But that magazine is like
Speaker 5: what ninety cost saving tips?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 9: I know.
Speaker 4: Go and it's tough to see everyone you either listen
Speaker 4: to or watched on TV or in movies racing the cover.
Speaker 3: You're like, yeah, no, this isn't making me feel any better.
Speaker 5: But I do feel like like miles ahead when they
Speaker 5: have articles that will explain technology. Oh yeah, people don't
Speaker 5: understand that.
Speaker 2: I'm like, who's that for them? Yeah? Oh, Jim, you
Speaker 2: can see me reading. I'm like, no, wait, you can
Speaker 2: send photos via text? Now I can call out a state.
Speaker 2: Not real. They've really made the smash my texts. They
Speaker 2: made these cricket phones. Really, like, does NASA know about
Speaker 2: this stuff? I feel like I feel like I have
Speaker 2: an edge over society. Now, all right, I saw something
Speaker 2: on Instagram today that I'm look, man, I've had a
Speaker 2: couple of drinks in my life. I've not I've not
Speaker 2: heard these two things. We're gonna talk about a little
Speaker 2: bit later compared. But this lady swears that these two

Speaker 2: awesome people. All right, Ded, let's get some news.
Speaker 1: It's time for j CS news.
Speaker 14: Wow, this guy got a push.
Speaker 1: Name on everything.
Speaker 2: It's in my contracted here's the news on the Jim
Speaker 2: Colber Show.
Speaker 4: And as always, JCS News is brought to you by
Speaker 4: that mortgage guy.
Speaker 3: Don all right.
Speaker 4: Tropical Storm Bertha's top winds have increased you about sixty
Speaker 4: miles per hour, but Jamie Rome, deputy director of the
Speaker 4: National Hurricane Center, says this may be as strong as
Speaker 4: Bertha ever gets.
Speaker 15: Plan interaction plus dry air should commence a weakening trend
Speaker 15: and continue to weaken as it sort of moves along
Speaker 15: the coast.
Speaker 4: Rome says wind shear is not only discouraging development, it's
Speaker 4: also pushing what rain there is away from shore. Tropical
Speaker 4: storm warnings are posted for Panama City, Pensacola, and all
Speaker 4: the way to southeastern Louisiana, but a storm surge warning
Speaker 4: has been discontinued as forecasters are only expecting one to
Speaker 4: three feet the search. Okay, yeah, I know, that's a
Speaker 4: whole new wrinkle on that one, isn't it only?
Speaker 2: Oh okay, I'll take that kneebuster.
Speaker 3: Sure, no problem, all right.
Speaker 4: A new University of North Florida polls shows strong initial
Speaker 4: support for Florida's proposed property taximand mid sixty one percent
Speaker 4: of likely voters back to the measure when told it
Speaker 4: would phase out some homestead property taxes, but support dropped
Speaker 4: to forty five percent when respondents were told it could
Speaker 4: create an estimated eleven point eight billion dollars shortfall for
Speaker 4: local governments over two years. And this next sound clip
Speaker 4: is really interesting because again, the property tax amendment, requiring
Speaker 4: voter approval on the November ballot, would increase the homestead
Speaker 4: exemption and limit property tax growth. Count Florida Senator Rick Scott,
Speaker 4: who lives in Collier County, as being concerned about the
Speaker 4: potential hit to course services if it passes.
Speaker 15: The property appraiser has been putting out information in my
Speaker 15: county and the reductions are big, so I'm worried about it.
Speaker 9: Mike County.
Speaker 4: He says, every voter needs to find out how a
Speaker 4: property tax reduction will affect police, fire, and education in
Speaker 4: each county. The Amendment Save Our Homes from Excessive Property
Speaker 4: Taxes requires sixty percent voter approval to pass, and if approved,
Speaker 4: would take effect at January first of twenty twenty seven.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the information is starting me kind of get out there,
Speaker 2: a lot of it on Facebook today as people are,
Speaker 2: you know, in county managers, county planners, mayors are trying
Speaker 2: to explain to people that live in their counties what
Speaker 2: exactly is going to happen if this happens to go through.
Speaker 2: It's so funny because an article I saw today in
Speaker 2: the Sentinel I believe said that it's really the way
Speaker 2: that it's explained can change the numbers so much. If
Speaker 2: you explain it one way, it gets sixty one percent approval,
Speaker 2: which would pass it right. If you explain it another way,
Speaker 2: it falls to forty five percent.
Speaker 4: Which is why the lawsuit that it's currently about. The
Speaker 4: ballot language is going to be so important because what
Speaker 4: voters actually hear in the voting booth could very well
Speaker 4: change how they feel about this. And if you remember,
Speaker 4: we had talked about it earlier during JCS News that
Speaker 4: there was a lawsuit filed because they said, listen, the
Speaker 4: way this ballot is written, it's propaganda. Yes, it's propaganda.
Speaker 4: It's not really giving folks the true numbers. Disney has
Speaker 4: cut hundreds of jobs in its latest round of layoffs.
Speaker 4: This is absolutely more of a California story, but with
Speaker 4: Disney being so entrenched here in Central Florida, Pixar was
Speaker 4: reportedly the hardest hit Disney film studio in the cuts.
Speaker 4: That layoffs also impacted ESPN and NFL network personalities as
Speaker 4: the two networks begin to integrate. Some of those let
Speaker 4: go include longtime Baseball to Night host Carl Ravage.
Speaker 2: Lego Man, that's a big deal for ESPN viewers. He's
Speaker 2: been on since the nineties. Wow, he's been with those guys.
Speaker 2: It's the nineties, Like he is a He's like one
Speaker 2: of the last remaining staple faces of the ESPN that
Speaker 2: I knew when I was watching sports a lot when
Speaker 2: I was younger.
Speaker 4: Well, not only that, NFL analyst Ryan Clark and NFL
Speaker 4: Network insider Tom Pelasaro. This is the third round of
Speaker 4: layoffs at Disney this year. Thousands of new jobs, however,
Speaker 4: could be coming to Florida. Governor Rond De Santis announced
Speaker 4: yesterday a British company called Relativity Space plans to expand
Speaker 4: its operations on the space coast. He says this is
Speaker 4: going to break substantial capital investments and thousands of high skill,
Speaker 4: high wage job for Floridians. DeSantis also says the UK
Speaker 4: Space Agency and Space Florida signed a memorandum of understanding
Speaker 4: to advance international space collaboration. He says these deals reinforce
Speaker 4: our position as a leader in the international space race.
Speaker 4: DeSantis made the announcement while in Great Britain for the
Speaker 4: Farmborough International Air Show. Speaking of all things space, this
Speaker 4: one's pretty cool. Space Sex is set to launch another
Speaker 4: mission from Florida's Cape Canaveral this afternoon. We are on
Speaker 4: board is a robotic spacecraft. I know it's up to
Speaker 4: Jack whether or not this launch is even a.
Speaker 2: Gol I got Shaw.
Speaker 4: They're gonna check with Jack Bradshaw before they send that
Speaker 4: big bird up.
Speaker 2: So let me check my text right now. They're in
Speaker 2: the launch tower, going somebody contact I got with five
Speaker 2: shares and find out what we're doing. Somebody please, I
Speaker 2: think his name is Jack. Are we a go from
Speaker 2: launch or not? Are we a go? Five us know?
Speaker 4: Well, this is really cool because on board is a
Speaker 4: robotic spacecraft that will help extend the life of aging
Speaker 4: satellites by attaching small propulsion units.
Speaker 3: Let's once they're in orbit.
Speaker 4: Lift office scheduled for five to fifteen Eastern with a
Speaker 4: backup launch window on Wednesday. It'll also be the thirty
Speaker 4: second and final flight for the Falcon nine booster being
Speaker 4: used on this mission. One other space note a milestone
Speaker 4: anniversary for a Florida space coast this morning, can you
Speaker 4: believe it or not? Fifteen years ago, space Little Atlantis
Speaker 4: touchdown for the last time at Kennedy Space Center, wrapping
Speaker 4: up Mission STS one thirty five, when the wheels came
Speaker 4: to a final stop at five point fifty seven am
Speaker 4: at mark the end of NASA's legendary thirty year Shuttle program.
Speaker 4: Over three decades, five orbiters flew more than five hundred
Speaker 4: million miles. So crazy, building the space station, launching the
Speaker 4: Hubble space telescope. Today Atlanta Atlantis rests permanently on display,
Speaker 4: and I believe that display is out in California.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yep, true.
Speaker 4: All right, two social media influencers are facing new sex charges.
Speaker 4: The complaints against and Drew Tate and his brother Tristan
Speaker 4: were unsealed yesterday in a federal courtroom in Miami Dade County.
Speaker 2: By the way, saw some video of those guys yesterday
Speaker 2: this morning actually being purp walked, right, and it's so funny.
Speaker 2: The one that dresses like Blanche from The Golden Girls.
Speaker 2: I believe that's Andrew. His brother Tristan is behind him,
Speaker 2: and what looks to be a suit that David Letterman
Speaker 2: would have worn in nineteen ninety eight. Yeah, they're welcome. High.
Speaker 2: Andrew is the outspoken one. He's the one the beard,
Speaker 2: He's the one. The other one's a little quieter, one
Speaker 2: looks pretty confident, and that other guy looks like prison
Speaker 2: time in a suit. That guy is scared esless. Look
Speaker 2: at that dude's face, he is petrified. That's what's gonna
Speaker 2: happen if they extradite them to the UK. Well.
Speaker 4: The rape, sex trafficking, and assault charges are based on
Speaker 4: complaints from a woman in England that.
Speaker 3: Date back over a decade.
Speaker 4: British authorities want the brothers extradited to face the charges.
Speaker 4: A lawyer for the Tate brothers says the charges are
Speaker 4: politically motivated and he plans to fight the extradition request.
Speaker 4: That's the standard line now, absolutely politically. This next story
Speaker 4: just can't get any more tragic. But a Mexican man
Speaker 4: who died after encounter with federal immigration agents in Saint
Speaker 4: John's County and Saint Augustine actually was apparently visiting.
Speaker 3: Florida as a tourist.
Speaker 2: Oh wow.
Speaker 4: An advocacy group says twenty eight year old Juan Gyral
Speaker 4: Cordonia Duran was in the US on a valid tourist
Speaker 4: visa and had been in Florida for only two days.
Speaker 3: Before his death.
Speaker 4: Authorities have said he was struck and killed by a
Speaker 4: semi near Saint Augustine while running from immigration officers during
Speaker 4: an operation last week. The Miami Herald reports Corneia Doran
Speaker 4: was a father of two who had planned to return
Speaker 4: home to Mexico just a few days later. Wow, I know,
Speaker 4: just can't get any worse. Speaking of that, there's a debate,
Speaker 4: and ever, by the way, never say what.
Speaker 2: Yeah, isn't that the truth these days?
Speaker 13: I know?
Speaker 4: It seriously does seem like a dare. All right, there
Speaker 4: is a debate in Edgewater over the mayor's lawyer. Okay,
Speaker 4: Mayor Diesel de p.
Speaker 3: Has hired the Sabatini law firm to represent him.
Speaker 2: Oh boy, there come the fireworks.
Speaker 4: That's actually some have a problem with that because the
Speaker 4: firm also represents the city. Okay, really, so it's representing
Speaker 4: the city and the city's mayor.
Speaker 2: Old Ai Sabatini is isn't that the dude? The gut
Speaker 2: slapped down by the Oh yeah, you ever using AI
Speaker 2: in his brief?
Speaker 3: So did you about that, Jack?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 5: So maybe Sabatini can represent one of the parties and
Speaker 5: his AI these Ai can represent the other.
Speaker 2: So look, the world's crazy. There's just no other way
Speaker 2: to say it.
Speaker 3: Crazy crazy.
Speaker 2: This billboard lawyers got all the using AI in the courtroom,
Speaker 2: like judges just go, hey, dude, what's that?
Speaker 4: No, And when the judges reprimanded him, they're like, dude,
Speaker 4: we've warned you about this already.
Speaker 3: What are you doing? You show your work extly?
Speaker 2: My bad.
Speaker 4: So yesterday's council a city council meeting councilwoman Debbie Dlbo
Speaker 4: question if it would create a perception of bias. Depew, though,
Speaker 4: says this is just political optics and there's nothing wrong
Speaker 4: with the firm representing him on personal issues that have
Speaker 4: nothing to do with the city. According to New six,
Speaker 4: he also said he has no plans to hire another
Speaker 4: firm to represent him.
Speaker 3: All right, So take that, you take that all right.
Speaker 4: You may not be aware, but the Coastguard rescues more
Speaker 4: than just people. Coast Guard officials posted photos on Facebook
Speaker 4: yesterday from a boat crew at its Key West station
Speaker 4: showing the crew rescuing a distress sea turtle about seven
Speaker 4: miles south of Sugar Loaf, Key on Sunday. The four
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty pound turtle. Good lord, that's a biggins.
Speaker 3: That is a hoss was brought.
Speaker 2: That is that's a hoss.
Speaker 3: I haven't heard that since dousa hazard.
Speaker 2: It's a VW with a.
Speaker 3: Is that really how big that is?
Speaker 2: It's as much as Jack and I together. That's how
Speaker 2: big that is? All right?
Speaker 3: Just come on now you can have Jack is like,
Speaker 3: I'm not that heavy.
Speaker 2: Fourty pounds.
Speaker 3: Look that's us. Oh god, that's so much.
Speaker 4: Well, the four hundred and fifty pounder was brought on
Speaker 4: board and taken to Shure. The Marathon Turtle Hospital is
Speaker 4: taking care of it.
Speaker 2: How do you get a four hundred and fifty pound
Speaker 2: turtle onto your boat?
Speaker 4: Well, I would imagine a lifting. You definitely want to
Speaker 4: definitely don't use your back. You're gonna want to lift
Speaker 4: with your legs, like.
Speaker 2: Ten magical dolphins or something. All right.
Speaker 4: Three Florida reptile species are now on the federal endangered
Speaker 4: list at it last week by the US Fish and
Speaker 4: Wildlife Service.
Speaker 3: That follows a decade of.
Speaker 4: Campaigning by the Center for Biological Diversity Staff attorney Reagan
Speaker 4: Whitlock says the group went to court under the Endangered
Speaker 4: Species Act.
Speaker 15: They didn't happen because the administration finally prioritized and periled wildlife.
Speaker 15: They happen because litigation forced the government to fustill its
Speaker 15: legal obligations under the Species Act.
Speaker 4: So the keys mole skink lizard, the key ring neck snake,
Speaker 4: and rim rock crowned snake are all native to Miami,
Speaker 4: Dade or Monroe Counties.
Speaker 2: And one of them is beautiful. I saw a photograph
Speaker 2: of one today. It looks like a snake with legs.
Speaker 2: Really this beautiful like kind of maroon. Uh like this
Speaker 2: blood ox blood maroon color was so black and China.
Speaker 2: It's a beautiful, beautiful creature.
Speaker 4: That must be the Key's mole skink lizard with the
Speaker 4: legs on it. Yeah, maybe it's a skink. They're threatened
Speaker 4: by development and sea level rise. Another group saying that
Speaker 4: Florida's gopher tortoises are also critically endangered because you know, development.
Speaker 4: It's slowing down though, and the Center questions whether the
Speaker 4: FEDS will follow through with habitat protections here at this no.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 4: And finally, a Texas micro brewery has plans to sell
Speaker 4: a beer that I said before the news is literally
Speaker 4: out of this world. Okay, Star based Brewing, which is
Speaker 4: based in no surprise, Austin, Austin. Everything cool happening right
Speaker 4: now in Texas seems to be happening in Austin.
Speaker 2: I thought maybe with a space connection it would be
Speaker 2: more of Houston. Yeah, that's a good point. That's a
Speaker 2: good point.
Speaker 4: Well it maybe maybe it'll move in the future, but
Speaker 4: it's going to be using yeast that was aboard SpaceX's
Speaker 4: latest launch.
Speaker 2: What's cool.
Speaker 4: The payloads survived re entry and was recovered off the
Speaker 4: coast of California. The same brewery last year tested the
Speaker 4: fermentation process a word the International Space Station, but since
Speaker 4: that was part of a NASA mission, it was only
Speaker 4: used for research, not for sale. This time it's going
Speaker 4: to be for sale.
Speaker 2: There you go, space. I predict it will taste zero difference.
Speaker 3: Well, you know they just found sugar in deep space.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they like the same sugar that's in raspberries or something. Right,
Speaker 2: How crazy is that?
Speaker 3: So now you've got sugar and yeast.
Speaker 2: When I was doing the moon stuff yesterday, we're talking
Speaker 2: about the moonwalk. It's wild because I was they talk
Speaker 2: about what the moon smells like? And I guess when
Speaker 2: they brought back that bag of moon dust, and when
Speaker 2: we talked about that, got into that question that I
Speaker 2: think it was buzz Aldron that that kind of coined
Speaker 2: what it smells like? Do you guys remember cheese?
Speaker 4: I'm just trying to picture an astronaut halving a big
Speaker 4: bag of moon dust.
Speaker 2: And what were they smell? They had their suits on,
Speaker 2: there were breathing. But it's in the capsule though, right, Oh,
Speaker 2: it's in the capsule. Plus they said that the believe
Speaker 2: or not, it's very dusty, and the moon dust is
Speaker 2: very clingy. So when it's even though you go throw
Speaker 2: pressure iris pressurized room, there's still dust on the suits
Speaker 2: and you can still smell from that. They said, smells
Speaker 2: like gunpowder or spent firework. So when you go to
Speaker 2: a fireworks show, that smelled it's in the air afterwards. Yes, sulfur. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: that that's what it smells like. That's what moon dust
Speaker 2: supposed to smell like. Well, that's actually what a lot
Speaker 2: of people said the atmosphere smells like. Of course I
Speaker 2: asked the same question, how would you know that?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: But in that same sense, they say that they have
Speaker 2: it because the particles they're on the suits when they
Speaker 2: come back in have that aroma.
Speaker 4: Wow, I've heard that the International Space Station smells like
Speaker 4: burnt cookies.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, well also they say that, and they did
Speaker 5: that on the first mission and it just lingers.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that bat cookies. Hey listen, But all jokes aside,
Speaker 2: though yesterday part of this I couldn't get this in
Speaker 2: a sentence to make it right. But when they take
Speaker 2: water into space, it gets extra extra hydrogen bubbles. I
Speaker 2: believe in it or something like that. Okay, so when
Speaker 2: they drink it, it's like drinking fizzy like a soda,
Speaker 2: which of course has what kind of effect, Yes, you
Speaker 2: start farting crazy. So they said that that one point
Speaker 2: in the capsule of the Apollo eleven it smelled fart
Speaker 2: crazy in there because one guy apparently had an issue
Speaker 2: with that and his stomach and he just kept farting
Speaker 2: over and over because they were drinking the water and
Speaker 2: it was fizzy. And I don't know what you locked
Speaker 2: into a tent with three farting grown ass men and
Speaker 2: that's basically what it was.
Speaker 4: Up kidding Well, regardless, that concludes your JCS news.
Speaker 2: We learned so much here.
Speaker 3: Don't we?
Speaker 5: Class act? Class act people. You're welcome, Orlando, going to say.
Speaker 2: Test talk back.
Speaker 16: And then my new truck. I retired my old dinosaur
Speaker 16: at a five hundred and ten thousand miles and Jimmy,
Speaker 16: I can't wait. And you get a new truck and have
Speaker 16: to figure out what all these buttons and these things do.
Speaker 16: That's ridiculous. It's taking me four days. I stilln't know
Speaker 16: what they all do.
Speaker 6: Thanks for playing that clip with Rick Scott and that
Speaker 6: reminds me. Tomorrow on Amazon Prime, he Man and Masters
Speaker 6: of the Universe draw starring Rick Scott is Skeletre. Oh no,

Speaker 2: Any husan have I sell you? I got three beers
Speaker 2: to drink. Pease what you say?
Speaker 3: I'm saying. There's more monkeys in Mount Dora.
Speaker 2: Last night. Yes, all the news may put a call out.
Speaker 4: They're they're migrating up, I guess from from what they
Speaker 4: so now they're warning folks because there was that one
Speaker 4: monkey that was spotted by the lake side in by
Speaker 4: Lake Dora. But now there's others and they're starting to
Speaker 4: explore the neighborhoods. Yeah, so if you have cats, young children,
Speaker 4: you're out taking your dog for a walk. These are
Speaker 4: not cute animal kingdom or bush gardens animals.
Speaker 3: They're wild.
Speaker 4: Don't look at them, don't engage with them, Just turn
Speaker 4: around and go the other direction.
Speaker 2: Is there a monkey spray like a bear spray?
Speaker 10: Now?
Speaker 2: Is that what you would do?
Speaker 9: Though?
Speaker 2: You would like to protect yourself against them because they
Speaker 2: can be agro Would you bear spraym or like Mason
Speaker 2: or whatever? Is that what you would do?
Speaker 3: I don't.
Speaker 5: The best thing you could do is reach into your
Speaker 5: pants and throw poop out of it.
Speaker 3: Oh they really respond? Well, no, that so jack?
Speaker 4: What you just carry it around with you? You got
Speaker 4: a fresh flow anytime?
Speaker 2: You just produced one.
Speaker 5: Right, Welcome show, Real Radio one O four point one.
Speaker 5: I'm Jim, there's dev Oh he's got some talent.
Speaker 2: Jag his ears. Well, green is your three click heyber,
Speaker 2: We'll have a fresh eye for you at the top
Speaker 2: of the hour. Got about seven minutes or so to
Speaker 2: get over to Real Radio out of him and send
Speaker 2: off that word green. Hopefully you win that money. I'd
Speaker 2: like to get a winter Today one Yesterday with the news.
Speaker 5: Junky and we can continue on monkeys in Mount Yes, yeah,
Speaker 5: in Mount Dora.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to figure out where we're going to go
Speaker 2: because we have a shorty here before we get to
Speaker 2: the top of the hour, and then of course we
Speaker 2: have what to do that's new, and then we're clean
Speaker 2: all the way through until five o'clock. But there are
Speaker 2: a couple of things I really want to talk about
Speaker 2: this one thing. What you want? Something short? And I
Speaker 2: watched a movie last night that you saw recently, Obsession. Yes,
Speaker 2: it was good. How good was that ending? That wild?
Speaker 2: It's funny because she said they did two endings. I'm like,
Speaker 2: how could they possibly choose anything other than the way
Speaker 2: that movie ended? It was? Did we see the same INNDY? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Did they? Did they release all? They did not release alternate? No,
Speaker 2: the inding, but the ending was perfect because of the
Speaker 2: nature of what happened. I mean, well perfect in what sense,
Speaker 2: perfect in the sense the perfect way to end a
Speaker 2: horror movie. I believe, Oh, okay, you know there there's
Speaker 2: a victim there, there's no question. Okay, yeah. But in
Speaker 2: that same sense, the brilliance of ending this movie like this, yeah,
Speaker 2: and making that person do that, I think it's kind
Speaker 2: of crazy. I think it's one of the best endings
Speaker 2: up scene for a horror movie in a while, which
Speaker 2: I think is one of the tough parts about making
Speaker 2: a horror movie is how to get out of the
Speaker 2: damn thing. Every You know, you have two choices to
Speaker 2: make right. Either the protagonist wins or the protagonist dies,
Speaker 2: and you have to explain why they die, or they
Speaker 2: have to die for a reason. It has to be
Speaker 2: almost martyredom. You know what I liked about this horror movie.
Speaker 2: There was a lot of suspense and there wasn't cretuitous gore.
Speaker 18: It was.
Speaker 5: There was very limited spots, but it was way more
Speaker 5: actually right, it was necessary. So when it did happen,
Speaker 5: it shocked me more because I wasn't expecting it.
Speaker 2: Right, right, And a lot of it's self induced, so
Speaker 2: it's like one of those things. Yeah, it was a
Speaker 2: really really good movie that was seen in the car.
Speaker 2: I told my wife, close your eyes, I'll tell you
Speaker 2: when you can open them.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was pretty narmal. Yeah, super nearly Yeah really, yeah,
Speaker 2: you should watch it. Here's the thing, it's a psych
Speaker 2: logical theory. Yeah, real thriller and a bit of a
Speaker 2: body morph thriller, I would.
Speaker 3: Say, is it going to be inspirational?
Speaker 2: It is not going to you know what, though, there's
Speaker 2: some spooky stuff really and there is a bit of
Speaker 2: that of an aspect of that. Yeah, absolutely, there's a
Speaker 2: bit of an aspect of that.
Speaker 3: That's Peacock, right. Where'd you guys watch Peacock?
Speaker 2: Has it for free? Now?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Okay?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah I like that. Oh yeah, tune right in
Speaker 2: and it's like an hour and a half. It's a
Speaker 2: real good easy watch. Yes, good dialogue. The cast is
Speaker 2: very small, so it's easy to follow. Produced by some
Speaker 2: twenty something year old. Yeah, you're crazy? Is this another
Speaker 2: a twenty four yes? Yeah, well this is Blumhousehouse. Yeah, yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: I'll have to check that out. You're are is and
Speaker 2: oddly how weird is that by it? And oddly enough
Speaker 2: because you do have a bit of a spooky part
Speaker 2: of your personality. Would you agree with that?
Speaker 13: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't really do horror movies, do you?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 4: I get that with the news. No, I wish I could.
Speaker 4: I wish I were joking, but.
Speaker 5: Normally I own and my wife doesn't. But she enjoyed
Speaker 5: it as well.
Speaker 3: But that says a lot.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but except that scene when I'm like close your eyes, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: don't look.
Speaker 2: Somebody just just text and said they saw last night,
Speaker 2: said I was pretty durned good as well. I mean,
Speaker 2: there's a reason why it's like one of those breakout
Speaker 2: movies of the year. It's it hasn't already set the
Speaker 2: record for the lowest costs for a movie to make
Speaker 2: that much money, like the margin, it's one of the
Speaker 2: biggest ever in that in that field, right, I aloud imagine.
Speaker 4: Yeah, everyone has talked about Obsession. It's it's Rotten Tomatoes
Speaker 4: ninety four.
Speaker 2: It is an unbelievably good picture.
Speaker 3: I AMDB seven point nine out of ten.
Speaker 2: You know, it was cool.
Speaker 5: I think that's low outside of Andy Rector, which we
Speaker 5: mentioned aad has a small role. You don't recognize anyone
Speaker 5: else and you don't need to. I'm kind of enjoying
Speaker 5: that more now in movies when it's people, I don't know.
Speaker 2: It's we talked to Emily about that very thing three
Speaker 2: weeks ago about the idea of these movies doing just that,
Speaker 2: Like there's not only do they save themselves budget money,
Speaker 2: but I don't know that younger people care that stars
Speaker 2: are in these movies, they're still looking for really good
Speaker 2: stories and they're looking for good acting. Let's face the man,
Speaker 2: there are a lot of really good actors out there.
Speaker 2: You know, just a few of them become very you know,
Speaker 2: big in household names. But you can you can watch
Speaker 2: a hundred movies you've never heard of, and the acting
Speaker 2: performances are gonna be insanely good. By the way, the
Speaker 2: casting on this movie couldn't have been any better.
Speaker 5: They shot it over twenty days, wow, in Los Angeles
Speaker 5: at a cost of yes.
Speaker 3: Seven million.
Speaker 2: No, I don't even think it was that much. There's
Speaker 2: a seven in it.
Speaker 5: Just seven hundred and fifty thousand, exactly, seven hundred and
Speaker 5: fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: That's it. Yeah, that's it. What do you think it
Speaker 2: made worldwide? Four hundred and sixty million dollars?
Speaker 5: You're pretty good at this game, buddy, four hundred and
Speaker 5: forty three million dollars. Wow.
Speaker 4: That you want to talk about your return on investment? Yeah,
Speaker 4: he gets a dog actually that those are some pretty amazing.
Speaker 2: Just a little bit more than a starting a starter
Speaker 2: on starting hole, yeah, starter home. I was trying to
Speaker 2: wiggle in there between your bottle laws I heard starting home. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: it could be home. But three four hundred and fifty
Speaker 2: million dollars. Wow, that's now. Someone says, don't watch Backroom.
Speaker 2: That was the other one that came out that was
Speaker 2: young you know, internet influencer produced or created, I mean
Speaker 2: powered type thing or yeah, but you know, I don't
Speaker 2: know it still well for free, I'll watch it. But
Speaker 2: the funny thing is I was on I was on
Speaker 2: Instagram the other day and a guy says, hey, I
Speaker 2: just brought I just entered this old warehouse building that
Speaker 2: was out in the Midwest somewhere, and it was one
Speaker 2: of these cavernous kind of trucking facilities that also had
Speaker 2: offices that also had distribution and manufacturing all in one facility.
Speaker 2: And it had been abandoned, but it was still it
Speaker 2: had power. And the guy walks, he goes, hey, you
Speaker 2: know I heard if you go in here, it's kind
Speaker 2: of trippy because it's a real backroom scenario, right, We're
Speaker 2: just like you open up a door and it's endless
Speaker 2: office space with that terrible lighting that comes down that
Speaker 2: sets the tone for all those like office movies, and
Speaker 2: and sure enough, dude opens his door and you couldn't
Speaker 2: even see the end of it all. It was just
Speaker 2: off of space and office space, one after the other,
Speaker 2: as far as you can see, as far as you
Speaker 2: can walk.
Speaker 3: I think you just described a lot of people's nightmare.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it was. It was very kind of creepy,
Speaker 2: oddly spooky. I bet all right, four seven nine one
Speaker 2: six one again always text us at seven seven zero
Speaker 2: three one. Let's take a little break. We'll come back.
Speaker 2: Got a fresh keyword for you at the top of
Speaker 2: the hour. We'll do what you do that's new next.

Speaker 14: over in Europe at the Farmborough Air Show? Is hag
Speaker 14: Seth and kid Rock like doing the flight plan or
Speaker 14: what's going on?
Speaker 2: It kind of sounds like a tracks though, Yeah, I
Speaker 2: don't know. I didn't read anything about that today.
Speaker 3: I mean Farmborough.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: See, like it's one of those reciprocal like travel things
Speaker 5: where like you go to your sister city.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you come over here, we'll come over there again.
Speaker 2: Some Lamborghini tractors, right credit, That is your fourth flock keyword.
Speaker 2: C R E D I T. Go to real radio
Speaker 2: don f M and send that away for your chance
Speaker 2: of one thousand bucks credit is the word, guys, good luck,
Speaker 2: hope you win. I'm Jim. There's deb Jack is here
Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, let's do what you do. That's new.
Speaker 2: What you do, that's what you do that hey.
Speaker 3: Line, I need to tell us something.
Speaker 2: That's right. Closman Law k l A U, S M
Speaker 2: A and law dot com office is right there in
Speaker 2: winter Park four oh seven nine one seven seventeen eighteen
Speaker 2: car crash called Klausman. We'll talk to Glynn on Thursday
Speaker 2: for Corport Cord. Until then, every single Tuesday around this time,
Speaker 2: we will do what you do. That it's new. One
Speaker 2: member of the show or our audience will choose something
Speaker 2: for us to watch, reader listen to. We will do
Speaker 2: that and then reconvene, discuss it and move on this week.
Speaker 2: It actually is a listener's choice. And then I have
Speaker 2: something for you guys here in a few seconds. Jackson. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Alex has offered stuff before.
Speaker 5: We usually solicit them during on gym Members it's our
Speaker 5: Facebook group. We invite everyone to join gym members on Facebook.
Speaker 5: It's a group of our listeners and we love that
Speaker 5: little connection there.
Speaker 2: It's free and very caustic. Yeah, yeah, yeah, is it. No,
Speaker 2: it's not really.
Speaker 5: It's actually pretty I kind of like that. The video
Speaker 5: is the Rise and Fall of Target, which the topic
Speaker 5: itself is interesting to me. This is done by Michael
Speaker 5: Girdley and apparently this is what he does, and he
Speaker 5: does it well. He actually does it really well.
Speaker 18: Yeah.
Speaker 5: He has a whole channel and the rise and fall
Speaker 5: of and it's all these different businesses you can imagine.
Speaker 5: Many are still like American Airlines, I believe his most
Speaker 5: recent one. He even had another one.
Speaker 2: I watch this. I liked it so much.
Speaker 5: I watch the Rise of Aldi and they don't have
Speaker 5: the Fall of Aldi yet. I mean, it's the rise
Speaker 5: of all all.
Speaker 2: They hadn't fallen, which is kind of weird because Target
Speaker 2: is in bad shape. I mean, you know, obviously at
Speaker 2: the end of this you hear how much their stock
Speaker 2: prices dropped over the last like five eight years, and
Speaker 2: it is not good. Yeah. I don't know. Do you
Speaker 2: get that vibe when you go to a Target, though?
Speaker 2: Do you get the vibe that things aren't well?
Speaker 9: There?
Speaker 2: I just the.
Speaker 5: The vibe I have about Target, and I think it
Speaker 5: more it happened with this whole anti this woke thing
Speaker 5: and anti woke thing where they were leaning and he
Speaker 5: addresses this, Yeah, where they leaned into diversity and representation.
Speaker 5: And then when there was a little backlash they and
Speaker 5: people started boycotting.
Speaker 2: Then they ran away from it, alienating everyone. Yeah.
Speaker 5: So it's like the worst way to handle it because
Speaker 5: now it's just like, Okay, now you just pissed off everybody.
Speaker 2: And that was and that was really just the cherry
Speaker 2: because so many other things happened before that leading to
Speaker 2: their kind of their fall that that was just really
Speaker 2: one of the most vocal and one of the things
Speaker 2: we saw the most in the media.
Speaker 4: It kind of seemed to be the thing that target
Speaker 4: does the best. Well, yeah, I hate to say it,
Speaker 4: but running away when when the chips came down, when
Speaker 4: the when the big data breach happened in twenty thirteen
Speaker 4: and the brass and Minnesota decided not to do anything
Speaker 4: about it, and then you find out that seventy million
Speaker 4: customer records and forty million have their bank stuff stolen.
Speaker 4: Then they try to take over Canada and think they're
Speaker 4: just gonna swoop in and just change the face of
Speaker 4: that shopping experience, get their ass handed to them and
Speaker 4: end up having to skulk out of that country. Then
Speaker 4: you've got the whole trying to weigh into the political
Speaker 4: landscape thing, decide that doesn't work, and rather than stick
Speaker 4: it out one way or the other, they just pulled
Speaker 4: up steak and ran.
Speaker 2: And this is all under one guy's tutelage, right, I
Speaker 2: mean that when the one dude marketing guy left, everything
Speaker 2: kind of fell apart.
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, the original guy or the guy who had
Speaker 5: it right up until he retired in two thousand and.
Speaker 3: Eight, where you got Heinrich.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he had him on point and sailing forward. And
Speaker 5: then what was interesting in the thing I learned about
Speaker 5: the guy who replaced him came from inside the company. Yeah,
Speaker 5: And so the downside to that is you don't get
Speaker 5: new ideas.
Speaker 2: You just have people.
Speaker 5: Doing what So you think on the positive is, oh,
Speaker 5: he's familiar with the brand, he knows how we've done it.
Speaker 5: He can continue this success we were experienced.
Speaker 2: But he's also institutionalized, right.
Speaker 5: So you're not getting the idea generator was the guy
Speaker 5: who retired. So now when you're generating the ideas and
Speaker 5: they're not quite fitting the form.
Speaker 3: Which is incredible.
Speaker 4: I mean, in the early nineties, Target was it, Like
Speaker 4: I remember, I remember buying that really cool tea kettle
Speaker 4: that sent the world and you know when they got
Speaker 4: him with the designers. I had really cool furniture from Tarja,
Speaker 4: something that looked really hip but you didn't pay an
Speaker 4: arm and a leg for.
Speaker 2: And something that's even more rare than that of fashion
Speaker 2: brands that actually took off from a discount retail or yeah,
Speaker 2: something you would have to usually go to the mall
Speaker 2: to find that would people that wouldn't scoff at you
Speaker 2: from wearing a mossy Mos shirt or whatever. But Target
Speaker 2: kind of slid into those dms and was allowed to
Speaker 2: make make clothes that people would wear out in public
Speaker 2: and they'll get ragged on for.
Speaker 3: It, and they did a good job.
Speaker 2: The leather jacket.
Speaker 5: I bought a leather jacket there twenty five years ago
Speaker 5: that I still wear. Yeah really, yeah, I love it
Speaker 5: and look but it is wild because you know, Target
Speaker 5: used to be that thing.
Speaker 2: I knew. This guy even talks about this, Like this
Speaker 2: guy talks about, you know, going into a Target years
Speaker 2: ago on a Friday night, like after a date, because
Speaker 2: the treasure hunting aspect of going to Target back in
Speaker 2: the day was kind of cool. But you know, the
Speaker 2: one thing he leaned this on I found quite odd
Speaker 2: because you figure, with so many directors and so many
Speaker 2: committees and a company that's big, that's that big, that
Speaker 2: this wouldn't be able to shine through. But the hubris
Speaker 2: of the country or the company that they believe that
Speaker 2: just because their brand name was so big that they
Speaker 2: literally could do anything they want and the customers would
Speaker 2: just kind of take it, ye would kind of just
Speaker 2: keep taking and pay. And they just got shown like
Speaker 2: without question, that is not the case.
Speaker 4: I mean, and their hubers went so much that you know,
Speaker 4: the main office told the stores what they were going
Speaker 4: to have on the shelves instead of listening to the
Speaker 4: show regional all to your customers.
Speaker 3: They're telling you what people want.
Speaker 5: Push or pull ordering poll is when you you you
Speaker 5: ordered the things that you're selling and that you need
Speaker 5: at your specific location. Push it comes from corporate where
Speaker 5: they say you all will take this product right right.
Speaker 5: And that's the thing he talked about how post COVID
Speaker 5: they they were not able.
Speaker 2: To compete with their grocery. They they didn't have the
Speaker 2: they buy the bulk that Walmart did. They couldn't compete
Speaker 2: with those prices can compete with Amazon. Yeah, they fell
Speaker 2: into that rut there, but they were in such a
Speaker 2: bad spot, and man, it is it is like I
Speaker 2: did not realize it was that bad off of Target.
Speaker 2: I mean, I knew they'd taken a couple of pretty
Speaker 2: big hits, but man, when he started listing that stuff
Speaker 2: out of me, how does this place still in business?
Speaker 4: And yet my neighborhood Target is full of young women.
Speaker 4: They have an ultim makeup store in there. Now, I
Speaker 4: know it's not going to be there for they're going
Speaker 4: to be replacing it with something else, but it's nothing
Speaker 4: to see gaggles of young women all over the Target
Speaker 4: and Mount Dora's shopping the makeup on nails and it's
Speaker 4: a eyelash And.
Speaker 2: That's a beautiful story. You're right because its right on
Speaker 2: the corner for me as well. But the interesting thing
Speaker 2: about the Target is they talk about the locations and
Speaker 2: how when the new management came in that they weren't
Speaker 2: I mean, I know that was in Canada as well,
Speaker 2: but like they started shutting down these locations in areas
Speaker 2: where they were getting no foot traffic anymore. But those
Speaker 2: stores have been open for years. It already been kind
Speaker 2: of dominated by the Walmart Dollar General products that they
Speaker 2: kind of fell into. And you're right, the last like
Speaker 2: the cherry on the top of that was the was
Speaker 2: the embracing of the lgbtqu in trans communities right up
Speaker 2: front with you know, some outrageous stuff like you.
Speaker 4: Know, I did not know that they sold like clothing
Speaker 4: with tuck options. Yeah, this was the first time when
Speaker 4: I heard just how hard Target leaned in.
Speaker 2: They went in.
Speaker 4: If they had just kept it as a collection with
Speaker 4: maybe you know, clothes that spoke positivity without being that shocking.
Speaker 5: But here's the deal with that shocking. It was something
Speaker 5: that was on sale there and we didn't know about it.
Speaker 5: It doesn't become shocking until someone starts protesting it.
Speaker 2: Well, they moved up front. I've got a problem with
Speaker 2: you selling it.
Speaker 5: I don't know, I've never seen it upfront, so yeah,
Speaker 5: you know, I didn't know.
Speaker 2: About it until I watched this. Yeah.
Speaker 5: So it's the fact that they made it. They made
Speaker 5: it available to a community, and I don't see anything
Speaker 5: wrong with that. But it was when they started getting
Speaker 5: protests because people didn't like the fact that they were
Speaker 5: catering to an LGBTQ community. Yeah, and so that so
Speaker 5: that's my problem with Target is then they abandoned that community.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I remember seeing videos after this thing hit of people
Speaker 2: walking into targets and they'd put that stuff up, like
Speaker 2: right when you walk in, you were seeing like, you know,
Speaker 2: baby clothes that were supporting that that lifestyle and stuff,
Speaker 2: and people were like, you know, obviously you know out
Speaker 2: on social media, it's the wild West you want. I
Speaker 2: don't fault them for doing it. I felt them for
Speaker 2: running away from it.
Speaker 5: I wish the would have just gave a middle finger
Speaker 5: to the people say initially protesting, Oh we don't like
Speaker 5: it so great, don't buy it.
Speaker 2: It's not for you. It's wild how that whole brand
Speaker 2: has has kind of taken it and taken the ls
Speaker 2: man because it is like their stock prices down how much.
Speaker 4: At one time it was like he just kept using
Speaker 4: the B word. I'm like billion here.
Speaker 5: The evaluation went from one hundred and twenty billion down
Speaker 5: the fifty to fifty billion.
Speaker 4: Yeah, unbelievable. I mean, I still love them. I still
Speaker 4: love shopping there. I still love trying to find really cool,
Speaker 4: kind of hip products for the house that don't cost
Speaker 4: an arm in a leg.
Speaker 5: Well, and they can still course correct and still offer
Speaker 5: good products.
Speaker 2: It's just they, you know.
Speaker 5: For if you like what you're experiencing in your store,
Speaker 5: then by all means there's no problem for you. It's
Speaker 5: the company that has to kind of solve the problem.
Speaker 5: How do we make this work nationwide?
Speaker 2: And they talk about the COVID thing because Target was
Speaker 2: so far behind on COVID that they stocked up on
Speaker 2: all these things because they thought COVID was going to
Speaker 2: be longer than it was. So they bought all the
Speaker 2: things for working at home, for making yourself comfortable at home,
Speaker 2: and they stopped up all this stuff thinking that yeah,
Speaker 2: bread makers, all this stuff that people were doing, thinking
Speaker 2: that people are going to be doing this for a
Speaker 2: couple of years. It would sell. Then, of course, in
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one, early twenty twenty two and all that
Speaker 2: kind of blew over. They're sitting with warehouses tens of
Speaker 2: hundreds of millions of dollars worked through this product. They
Speaker 2: have to unload. But now they have to unload at cost,
Speaker 2: or maybe a dollar or two over cost, just to
Speaker 2: get rid of it, costing them even mormage. I think
Speaker 2: their margins dropped from twenty percent down to like thirteen percent.
Speaker 2: Texters says their stock is up forty percent year to date.
Speaker 2: Now this video he made, I think it was only
Speaker 2: a couple months ago. Oh yeah, yeah, just beginning of
Speaker 2: this year. I thought, yeah, yeah, really interesting guy. Maybe
Speaker 2: they are turning it around. Good for them, Well, they
Speaker 2: have they have such a strong brand. They just have
Speaker 2: to lean in and kind of get it right. But
Speaker 2: and by the way, what you said earlier, because the
Speaker 2: gentlemen had mentioned that about getting new ideas in there.
Speaker 2: Not only do I believe those people were institutionalized. One
Speaker 2: of the things he talked about was is that you
Speaker 2: are already in the building. It's hard for somebody that's
Speaker 2: already been there to talk to people who've been there
Speaker 2: for years about new ideas and telling them there's not
Speaker 2: their ideas aren't good. You need an outsider that can
Speaker 2: come in that don't have social relationships with people and
Speaker 2: the C suite so that they can tell them, hey,
Speaker 2: this isn't right. I don't care about hurting your feelings,
Speaker 2: this isn't good for the company. Because it's subordinate.
Speaker 5: It's not going to say I think this is a
Speaker 5: bad plan when they're trying to protect their career.
Speaker 2: Exactly. Very interesting. You want to check that out. It's
Speaker 2: the Jim Colbert Live dot Com. Go through the What
Speaker 2: You Do It's new master list. It's right there where
Speaker 2: you can click right through.
Speaker 4: No, somebody just texted us and said that their aunt
Speaker 4: is a Target executive. Their biggest issue is shoplifting and theft,
Speaker 4: which we also learned in this minio video is a
Speaker 4: big issue for Dollar Tree and for Walmarts.
Speaker 3: But the problem with Target exactly.
Speaker 4: But the problem with Target is that they couldn't absorb
Speaker 4: the losses because they weren't making enough money to make
Speaker 4: up for what they were losing.
Speaker 2: Right. Their margins were cut so low they have any
Speaker 2: cushion in there to take the theft.
Speaker 4: So when that one set, they had to close what
Speaker 4: five to seven stores and shut them down because they
Speaker 4: simply couldn't absorb with the other retailers.
Speaker 2: Still don't understand why it didn't hit in Canada, but it
Speaker 2: said Walmart's hitting now. They just rolled it out too
Speaker 2: fast in Canada and they should have just taken it
Speaker 2: easier because Canadians, I guess maybe a DAP slower or something.
Speaker 5: No, No, I thought it was fascinating how we explained it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they instead Walmart.
Speaker 5: What Walmart did and I know we're late by Yeah,
Speaker 5: they did one store at a time and they they
Speaker 5: learned from their mistake, They adjusted the Canadian the buyer,
Speaker 5: and then they they grow from that slowly.
Speaker 2: What Target tried to do is they bought it down
Speaker 2: their throat.
Speaker 5: No, they bought a defunct chain, so they had locations
Speaker 5: all over and there was a reason that previous chain was.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the locations were terrible things. So you buy those
Speaker 2: problems as well.
Speaker 5: And they've tried to do it all at once without
Speaker 5: the infrastructure that was naturally be there. They just tried
Speaker 5: to go from zero to sixty way too fast. Seven
Speaker 5: billion dollars hit for that, Yeah, seven billion dollars. All right,
Speaker 5: real quick, I'll get this for you, will you out
Speaker 5: of here? It's so what I got for you guys
Speaker 5: this day is uh For next week is I leaned

Speaker 2: We hope you win Anita winner add one yesterday we'd
Speaker 2: like to add on to that. I'm Jim, there's deb Hello,
Speaker 2: and Jack is here as well. Hello. So today tooling
Speaker 2: through Instagram as I will when I take a little
Speaker 2: break from you know, writing the show and stuff like that.
Speaker 2: You guys do that, by the way, you know it's
Speaker 2: good for you. Nope, Like, if you're in the middle
Speaker 2: of a like you have like a two and a
Speaker 2: half hour session where you've just kind of been grinding,
Speaker 2: to stop for maybe five eight minutes or so and
Speaker 2: then go back.
Speaker 3: You don't do that five eight minutes?
Speaker 4: What are you talking about that five eight minutes turns
Speaker 4: into a quick four to five.
Speaker 2: Well, i'll take you. I'll take a couple of seconds.
Speaker 2: I'll slide over, maybe rip through social see if anything
Speaker 2: is dropped on social media, and then go right back.
Speaker 2: I'll do that occasionally. And while doing that today, I
Speaker 2: saw a woman who is, you know, a self acclaimed
Speaker 2: recovering alcoholic. She actually tells a story about losing everything
Speaker 2: to alcoholism. And at one point she was a TV
Speaker 2: news anchor, right and an evening to a TV news anchor,
Speaker 2: so she know she's educated. You could obviously see she
Speaker 2: had done well but had a massive drinking problem. And
Speaker 2: so she starts talking about her her exploits while drinking,
Speaker 2: not doing anything crazy, she just talks about some of
Speaker 2: the terminology used in drinking. And she said something I
Speaker 2: found very interesting because I've not heard this this used
Speaker 2: like this before. She said she used to drink till
Speaker 2: she blacked out. Almost every night, she would drink until
Speaker 2: she blacked out. And I thought to myself, I'm like, okay, well,
Speaker 2: I mean, you know you're drinking to your pass out.
Speaker 2: That's you know, everybody knows that that's a big you know,
Speaker 2: that's not a good thing. But she didn't mention passing
Speaker 2: out because she was saying that blacking out and passing
Speaker 2: out are two different things, and I've not heard that before.
Speaker 2: I always thought that when you blacked out, oh I
Speaker 2: got blackout drunk, that I just drank so much that
Speaker 2: I passed out and I just basically forgot everything that
Speaker 2: I did that day, or just kind of blacked out.
Speaker 2: Blackout is you are functioning by you don't remember it.
Speaker 2: Really passing out is unconscious, right, So passing out, so
Speaker 2: blacking out what happens. I've never had this.
Speaker 5: Experience, Like you'd be bouncer, you'd be carrying people around
Speaker 5: a bowling alley. Yeah, but I wasn't blacked out. I
Speaker 5: knew exactly what I was doing. I was just having
Speaker 5: a good time.
Speaker 2: Right, But it would be that it would be drinking
Speaker 2: where you are still interacting with but you do not
Speaker 2: remember anything. You don't remember it is that is okay?
Speaker 2: So let me ask in the world of drinking, is
Speaker 2: that a thing that only certain people can experience, Like
Speaker 2: they get so drunk that they literally black out, they
Speaker 2: start losing memory of what they've done. I mean, I
Speaker 2: know that sounds silly, to ask, because everybody's like, well, sure, Jim, mean,
Speaker 2: we've all done that. I mean I've not really done that.
Speaker 2: I've been I mean I've been blotto drunk, but I
Speaker 2: remember damn near everything I did at Auto's wedding. That's
Speaker 2: almost the drunkest I've ever been in my life. And
Speaker 2: I can still tell those stories because they're funny because
Speaker 2: I didn't black out. I remember everything. I was just really,
Speaker 2: really really drunk.
Speaker 5: I don't know how much you can trust your memory
Speaker 5: if you are in that condition, though.
Speaker 2: Really yeah, I would think. I mean, if you asked Craig,
Speaker 2: Craig could pretty much tell you everything that happened that night,
Speaker 2: and I would be able to tell you easily. I
Speaker 2: remember every single bit of it. That was the kind
Speaker 2: of weird thing about that night.
Speaker 5: I mean you remember when someone else says it, then
Speaker 5: you're like, oh, yeah, okay, yeah, I gotta tell you, man,
Speaker 5: it was different from me.
Speaker 2: And I've drunk. I have had enough alcohol, so I've
Speaker 2: passed out. I mean I think everybody's done that, right, Yeah,
Speaker 2: you're drinking so much, you get sleepy, you pass out, and.
Speaker 3: You got to put that foot on the floor for
Speaker 3: the spins you.
Speaker 2: Exactly gonna put that one foot on the floor so
Speaker 2: your bedroom that taking off exactly. What's the last time
Speaker 2: you did that? When's the last time you get spinny drunk?
Speaker 2: It's been a man, it's been so long. I hate that,
Speaker 2: did you really?
Speaker 18: No?
Speaker 2: I hate that feeling so much terrible. I'm terrified of it.
Speaker 2: So I if I even think I'm getting near that feeling,
Speaker 2: we're shutting that down. Yeah. Yeah, But that's why when
Speaker 2: I saw she she talked about blacking out as opposed
Speaker 2: to passing out and didn't include it.
Speaker 5: I was like, blacking out is more dangerous. I would
Speaker 5: agree with that, because if you still think out there
Speaker 5: doing stuff, you just don't remember it driving.
Speaker 2: And by the way, she said that she had a
Speaker 2: DUI a felony d UI. From that, I don't know
Speaker 2: what that means. A felony do U. I maybe property
Speaker 2: damage or an injury. Oh it hit somebody and injured.
Speaker 2: I meanah, yeah, I guess so wow. Yeah. When when
Speaker 2: she was talking about it, I was like, oh, man,
Speaker 2: that's wild. I remember being drunk enough to have a
Speaker 2: lot of fun and smile and act the fool, but
Speaker 2: I remembered every single bit of it. But I wonder
Speaker 2: if alcoholics themselves deal with that, like just alcoholics. I
Speaker 2: wonder if that's maybe an assumed thing that you drink
Speaker 2: so much that your body just kind of acclimates to that,
Speaker 2: and although you don't get tired and kind of get sleepy,
Speaker 2: you just kind of power through.
Speaker 5: Like blackout is only a byproduct of continued drinking, more
Speaker 5: associated or likely to be for I'm an it's an alcoholic.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. If somebody just texting and said
Speaker 2: blackout beans your brain stopped recording. Yeah, it's an easy
Speaker 2: way to put it, but I guess that's kind of
Speaker 2: the accurate way to do it. Huh h. There's also
Speaker 2: a thing called a white out. I've not heard of
Speaker 2: that one. Oh what blackout's like an autopilot? I guess
Speaker 2: you drink just so much that your body, just to
Speaker 2: your ID takes over. Yeah, I don't know. I've never
Speaker 2: heard of a white out. I don't know what a
Speaker 2: white out means when you're drinking. I think it's when
Speaker 2: you're drinking at a clan rally. Maybe it's your drinking
Speaker 2: and it just makes you so positive that everything you
Speaker 2: do is good. I love you. He says, I'm with you, Jimmy.
Speaker 2: I remember exactly what stupid thing I was doing. The
Speaker 2: next morning I had that, Well, what did I do thing?
Speaker 2: I know exactly who I need to apologize to. Blackout
Speaker 2: once as a teenager, never again, thirty six years old,
Speaker 2: never been drunk. Blacking out is scary. Af did it
Speaker 2: a few times when I was young and dumb.
Speaker 4: Somebody said, if it's questionable but a little fuzzy, then
Speaker 4: it's called a brownout.
Speaker 2: Oh really, brownout sounds bad. Let's not do that one,
Speaker 2: it says here I am. I think some people pass
Speaker 2: out before they blackout. I got so drunk one time.
Speaker 2: I was walking down the street holding a baby Jesus statue,
Speaker 2: and I only know what happened due to the pictures
Speaker 2: that were taken that day.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's another one. When you see pictures of you
Speaker 5: like doing things you don't remember, right.
Speaker 2: Lockout, got it, Manta. I was trying to wrack my
Speaker 2: brain figure out if I've ever done that before, if
Speaker 2: I've ever like been blackout drunk. I'm sure I have.
Speaker 2: I've been. You know, I've been drunk a bunch in
Speaker 2: my life, which is sad but true. But I don't
Speaker 2: remember doing anything. I don't remember. I remember getting pulled
Speaker 2: over once when I really really shouldn't have been driving.
Speaker 2: I was sixteen or seventeen years old, and my buddy
Speaker 2: was not as drunk, and I had no idea what
Speaker 2: I was driving. But not only do I remember being
Speaker 2: pulled over, it was a state trooper as well. That
Speaker 2: my buddy got out, started talking to him about it,
Speaker 2: and we got back in, and I remember every single
Speaker 2: thing about it. He drove home that night, U and
Speaker 2: everything was fine, but it was just kind of wild.
Speaker 2: Even though I was so drunk. I slept in the
Speaker 2: yard when I got home. I remembered the encounter, every
Speaker 2: single bit about it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you got to go home.
Speaker 5: Yeah, right, exactly because the option there was exactly.
Speaker 2: Right four seven nine one text us at seven seven
Speaker 2: zero three one. There's another thing I wanted to talk about.
Speaker 2: I found I found kind of interesting. Of course, we
Speaker 2: know with Polymarket and Calsch, the betting apps, we've seen, yeah,
Speaker 2: we've seen everything happen. We just recently saw that the
Speaker 2: White House teleprompter writer was I think was he let go?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, they fired him because he was betting
Speaker 2: on I guess maybe betting on how many words are
Speaker 2: being said.
Speaker 3: Or how many times where he yeah, how many times.
Speaker 2: How many times he says a certain word or whatever,
Speaker 2: and he won like one hundred thousand dollars over a
Speaker 2: period of time. They let him go. And we've heard
Speaker 2: everything you can bet on, and when it comes to polymarket,
Speaker 2: have you have you guys heard this latest story of
Speaker 2: what people were betting on? Now I don't. Here's the thing.
Speaker 2: Do you believe eventually that this is going to be
Speaker 2: regulated in some way, shape or form. You believe that?
Speaker 2: Do you believe eventually the government's going to step in
Speaker 2: and go, hey, look, you know, we understand this is
Speaker 2: a legitimate business. That the idea of predicting stuff and
Speaker 2: betting on it sounds kind of novel. It's fun. But
Speaker 2: at what point are they going to limit what you
Speaker 2: can bet on?
Speaker 5: I thought we would have saw some backlash after a
Speaker 5: member of the strike team bet on the Venezuela and raid.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought we did, though, didn't we? I thought,
Speaker 2: didn't that guy get reprimanded individually?
Speaker 5: You're seeing that and now cal she is see if
Speaker 5: they don't self regulate, then it gets out of hand
Speaker 5: and then the government steps in right, you know, depending
Speaker 5: on how functional the government is on this, should you.
Speaker 2: Be able to go?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: So with this you just like you.
Speaker 5: They say they're cutting down on trying to identify people
Speaker 5: guilty of insiders training. So I think they'd use this
Speaker 5: White House teleprompter operator as an example of them self
Speaker 5: policing on.
Speaker 2: Call she or poly market? Do they have the like
Speaker 2: a deadpool? Can you gamble on on humans on the
Speaker 2: detriment of a human being?
Speaker 5: I believe the last time I looked, and this was
Speaker 5: months ago, I haven't been on these sites because I
Speaker 5: don't want to go down that road. Right, you could,
Speaker 5: but it was more of like it was Maduro's fate,
Speaker 5: right right, it was world leader's fate.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is still just as tasteless. It's this story
Speaker 2: will tell you it is. It is ultimately tasteless. What
Speaker 2: do you think you can What do you think people
Speaker 2: are betting on right now? In poly market? And I
Speaker 2: get another question about the poly market and call she thing?
Speaker 2: Who makes the who makes the subject? In other words,
Speaker 2: who decides what can get bet on? Is that the app?
Speaker 2: Or is that is that user produced? I don't know, yeah,
Speaker 2: because I find that very interesting if it's jewser produced
Speaker 2: and somebody says, hey, we should be able to bet
Speaker 2: on this. Somebody set up a thing where we can
Speaker 2: gamble on this. That's one thing still has to be
Speaker 2: regulated by the app, though they would still have the
Speaker 2: ability to shut that down. Or if the app says, hey,
Speaker 2: this looks like it has some promise, let's put that
Speaker 2: up there and see if people gamble on that. Right,
Speaker 2: Either way, what do you think the story is about?
Speaker 2: What are people gambling on?
Speaker 3: Obviously the demise of someone.
Speaker 2: It is the demise of someone or something. Ooh, democracy, I.
Speaker 3: Was going to say democracy.
Speaker 2: How about how about the how about the Eton fire?
Speaker 2: As the fire swept through La and Altadena last year
Speaker 2: claimed nineteen lives right and January of twenty twenty five
Speaker 2: is the LA fire's rage. People placed bets on poly Market,
Speaker 2: one of the leading prediction market platforms. They wage money
Speaker 2: on how many acres the fire would consume, which locations
Speaker 2: the flames would reach, and where and when they would
Speaker 2: be contained. People are betting on the destruction of a
Speaker 2: a wildfire on Polymarket and Cal Street.
Speaker 5: Which is and what's so wrong about that is because
Speaker 5: there are people who can affect that y right, like
Speaker 5: anybody if they wanted to, you know, have enough money,
Speaker 5: it's like, oh well, if I just you know, you know,
Speaker 5: move the fire over here, create one, they'll they'll just
Speaker 5: think it's part of the same and I'll win my bet. Absolutely, yeah,
Speaker 5: And that's where people looking for money. Yeah, it says
Speaker 5: here it was pretty dystopian, said this California based climate
Speaker 5: scientist who works at the nonprofit Climate Central. He says,
Speaker 5: it's not just easy to start a fire. Now, there's
Speaker 5: a potential financial incentive. And you could you imagine if
Speaker 5: I knew like a place in La where I could
Speaker 5: go over there and it was like roads on all sides,
Speaker 5: and if I just set this cube on fire, chances
Speaker 5: are it would be contained within this cube, and then
Speaker 5: you could bet, oh, I think it's gonna burn about
Speaker 5: fifteen acres, well, you know, it says. It's as poly
Speaker 5: market as part of a booming multi billion dollar industry
Speaker 5: which allows people to bet on the outcome of almost
Speaker 5: any future event, from the results of football game, football games,
Speaker 5: and elections to the number of social media posts Elon
Speaker 5: Musk makes. It says some prediction markets also allow people
Speaker 5: to bet on wildfires as well as climate change, fuel
Speaker 5: and extreme weather events. And again like something like Elon
Speaker 5: Musk wouldn't have to do this for money, but he
Speaker 5: can do it just to mess with Yeah, just for fun,
Speaker 5: just for fun? Is how many posts? And if it's
Speaker 5: someone around him.
Speaker 2: Yeah he could. I mean, it's easily fixable. That's why,
Speaker 2: that's why I do not understand how it works or
Speaker 2: how people roll the dice on these things, because it's
Speaker 2: it's so easy to manipulate based on the subject matter,
Speaker 2: based on what you're betting on. No different than the
Speaker 2: teleprompter guy or the invasion guys who have inside knowledge
Speaker 2: of where it's going, where it's gonna land first, what
Speaker 2: the target is. All of those things would be things
Speaker 2: that you would bet on in the app. This poly
Speaker 2: market says, this platform is a valuable source of information
Speaker 2: during disasters. Quote, people turn to news for commentary, and
Speaker 2: they come to poly market for information. While we're not
Speaker 2: blind to the risks, removing these markets does not prevent
Speaker 2: a tragedy, but does make the most accurate information less
Speaker 2: accessible to the people who need it first.
Speaker 4: You mean the betters, Yeah, Because I'm not imagining too
Speaker 4: many first responders are hanging out on Culshire poly market
Speaker 4: trying to figure out where to you know, cut their
Speaker 4: fire line next.
Speaker 2: It says people have been betting on the weather long
Speaker 2: before the dawn of the Internet. That's what they're trying
Speaker 2: to say, whether it be for your fishing, hunting, planting
Speaker 2: your crops, you know, reaping your crops. I mean, that's
Speaker 2: what they're basically saying is we've gambled on weather as
Speaker 2: human beings, as a species for our entire existence. That's
Speaker 2: the logic they're trying to use.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the wildfire is at next level event.
Speaker 5: I wouldn't Yeah, I wouldn't classify that as weather texter.
Speaker 5: I think they will regulate this as soon as regular
Speaker 5: people fight way to benefit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, right. Is as the poly market creates market the
Speaker 2: poly team. The poly market team creates markets without you,
Speaker 2: with with input from users by formulating questions to which
Speaker 2: the answer is usually yes or no. Users buy shares
Speaker 2: in an outcome between a dollar or you know, no
Speaker 2: money and a dollar. If yes, shares are trading at
Speaker 2: sixty five cents each, for example, that means the market
Speaker 2: thinks that there's a sixty five percent chance than the
Speaker 2: outcome of that happening shares in the crowd correct outcome
Speaker 2: or paid out at one dollar each. So I bet
Speaker 2: sixty five cents and if I win, I win thirty
Speaker 2: five cents. Right, That's what I'm profiting.
Speaker 5: I guess I'd never I figured if I got one,
Speaker 5: if I started to try to understand it, I'd be
Speaker 5: one step closer and putting money in.
Speaker 2: Well, theoretically, I mean there anywhere four thirty today, I
Speaker 2: mean until four thirty, but I mean when hurricane season starts,
Speaker 2: and even this thing going across the golf right now,
Speaker 2: so you would be able to go and find those
Speaker 2: golf cities in Texas and go, okay, well, I wonder
Speaker 2: how much damage is going to be made here? Right?
Speaker 2: How much is the storm surge going to damage? And
Speaker 2: you start betting on an outcome like how much is
Speaker 2: Katrina gonna cost? Like while people are being rescued from
Speaker 2: rooftops and their powers out and an entire city is
Speaker 2: struggling to stay alive. People that aren't in that city
Speaker 2: would be betting on the amount of damage or the
Speaker 2: amount of homes lost.
Speaker 3: Nothing.
Speaker 4: I'd want to put my money on bad karma. It
Speaker 4: does seem bad karma.
Speaker 2: Very very dystopian. I think that word is absolutely perfect
Speaker 2: for this extremely dystopian.
Speaker 3: Oh, without a doubt.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, four oh seven nine one six one
Speaker 2: four one. You always text us at seven seven zero
Speaker 2: three one back in one second, Jim Cobber show what's up?
Speaker 9: Man?
Speaker 19: Yeah, the whole passing out and blacking out thing, it
Speaker 19: takes years and years of pure alcohol abuse for that
Speaker 19: to happen. I used to wake up every morning, and
Speaker 19: I'm not joking, I'd have a bottle of liquor. I'm
Speaker 19: not saying that'd be the first thing I drank. I'd
Speaker 19: be drunk by nine o'clock. But before you know it,
Speaker 19: you hit this point where you don't remember what you
Speaker 19: said or you've been who you wrong?
Speaker 2: He actually said another one because he.
Speaker 19: Was sorry to send a double dispatch here. But you
Speaker 19: understand alcoholics.
Speaker 20: Their drug dealer is also on every corner on every street,
Speaker 20: almost man, And you hit a point where you could
Speaker 20: drink functionally, but you always want to chase that.
Speaker 2: Dragon, just getting a little bit more of a buzz.
Speaker 2: So it's really hard.
Speaker 19: And you should call those friends that drink a lot, man,
Speaker 19: give him a hand.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I hope you're okay. Buddy, I hope you gave
Speaker 2: it up. And then, by the way, he's echoing with
Speaker 2: a lot of people in the texting service have said
Speaker 2: we had a bit of a lag. Like we do
Speaker 2: with the technical service, we'll throw out a topic, then
Speaker 2: we'll talk about of some other stuff, and then we'll
Speaker 2: have texts that are coming in from that, And that's
Speaker 2: exactly what we have here. Pretty much only alcoholics have blackouts.
Speaker 2: This is from a long time recovery and alcoholic. A
Speaker 2: couple other people said the same kind of thing, like
Speaker 2: I've had a few blackouts, and they feel that most
Speaker 2: people who have that experience have a long relationship with alcohol.
Speaker 5: So I have another one, Jimmy, you just brought this
Speaker 5: up earlier this week. The h when you watch that
Speaker 5: documentary and they changed the person's features what they call that,
Speaker 5: you remember, they.
Speaker 2: Called that anonymized digitally. In other words, what happened was
Speaker 2: is during a documentary I was watching, rather than blur
Speaker 2: the face of the people they were interviewing, they just
Speaker 2: made up a new person with AI. So the person
Speaker 2: you're seeing actually isn't even a person, but that character
Speaker 2: is saying what the witness actually said.
Speaker 5: So I think we have it for someone did that
Speaker 5: with their voice. I don't know if you can make
Speaker 5: it out. I'll try it because some of the audio quality.
Speaker 5: It's been a little tough today here.
Speaker 3: What sports get out work.
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's uh, that's too hard to make out. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't know what that was. It feels like we
Speaker 2: just talked to aliens. Yeah, try again.
Speaker 5: We had a lot of we Sometimes when you do
Speaker 5: a talk back, just real quick listen back, make sure
Speaker 5: it sounds so good. We got one from Solomon the
Speaker 5: Kansas Trucker. Yeah, yeah, and just really good information. But
Speaker 5: the audio quality on it was so rough. It's just
Speaker 5: something we can't play in the air because the listeners
Speaker 5: and people listening won't be able to really understand it.
Speaker 2: It's just yeah, because there is he hasn't blacked out
Speaker 2: since the Upsilon days when he was in I guess
Speaker 2: in a frat. Oh boy, And the guy says he's
Speaker 2: one hundred percent right. The guy calling it about alcoholism.
Speaker 2: If you have a long term relationship with alcohol, that
Speaker 2: you will experience blackouts more than like people who do
Speaker 2: not do that. Even I think maybe even people who
Speaker 2: are like Weekend Warriors probably won't have that same experience
Speaker 2: because they're not drinking to the sleep every night of
Speaker 2: the week. You know, there's one more on.
Speaker 3: It, Jams.
Speaker 16: I actually called Jack and said, I do you give
Speaker 16: you all the basics of a blackout?
Speaker 2: And just what did I do last night? Back out?
Speaker 20: Is you remember some stuff but only when you drink
Speaker 20: a few beers.
Speaker 16: In the morning.
Speaker 5: But bol'sho. When I called up Jack and it's like,
Speaker 5: what do you want to talk about, I said, my expertise.
Speaker 2: I never heard him laugh so hard. Yeah, he passed
Speaker 2: that on team. By the way, he passed on I'm Jim,
Speaker 2: there's deb and Jack is here as well, and we'll
Speaker 2: have another keyword for you at the top of the hour.
Speaker 2: You do have a few minutes with the word credit
Speaker 2: to get over to real radio. Donef him and send
Speaker 2: that away, but we will have a fresh one for
Speaker 2: you at the top of the hour. A little bit
Speaker 2: later in the show, it's Only Money with Scott Brown
Speaker 2: from Edgewber Family Wealth. Of course we'll have trivia today
Speaker 2: as well. Yeah. I love the I love all of
Speaker 2: the interaction we're getting with the texting service on these topics,
Speaker 2: because you know, the alcohol thing is kind of wild.
Speaker 2: You know, we talk about it in a laughing matter, because,
Speaker 2: like that guy said, you know, I mean, alcohol is
Speaker 2: perfectly accepted in the States almost every state, every city.
Speaker 2: You know, you can walk into and grab some alcohol
Speaker 2: and have at it, and no one who is selling
Speaker 2: it at an ABC or any of these stores is
Speaker 2: going to ask you if you have an alcohol problem.
Speaker 2: They're just gonna take your money and give you the alcohol.
Speaker 5: Supermarkets, drug stores, convenience stores, liquor stores everywhere.
Speaker 2: Yeah, everywhere. Same place you get your groceries, same place
Speaker 2: you get your your pharmaceuticals. Yep, all that. I mean,
Speaker 2: they also have alcohol every single retailer, with the exception
Speaker 2: of people who don't. You know, I mean you can
Speaker 2: get alcohol, get your gasolina where you get your gasoline,
Speaker 2: exactly present, all right, seven to seven zero three one.
Speaker 2: That's how you text us if you have something saying.
Speaker 2: Speaking of that. By the way, there is a little
Speaker 2: story about alcohol we can kind of cover real quick
Speaker 2: before we get to the top of the hour. We
Speaker 2: can actually carry it over U. There is a an
Speaker 2: Alaskan bush pilot uh named Kenneth Jopi, which is our
Speaker 2: jupy j oupp I. He's eighty two years old. Whoa,
Speaker 2: and he's had an argument going on for quite a while.
Speaker 2: He is a one man air taxi service and he
Speaker 2: uses his personally owned nineteen sixty nine Cesna that he
Speaker 2: bought that he has is since twenty twelve, and he
Speaker 2: flies people into areas that don't have access via roads.
Speaker 2: But in Alaska, I think there's quite a few of
Speaker 2: those places, right, yeah, So that's exactly what happened. He
Speaker 2: picked up a he had a run. He picked up
Speaker 2: a guy and said he was going to take some
Speaker 2: guy to this remote village of Beaver near the center
Speaker 2: of the state.
Speaker 3: Not giving you that one's too easy.
Speaker 2: Beaver had banned the possession or cell of alcohol within
Speaker 2: its limits and had for years because they had a
Speaker 2: big time problem. And out by the way, I don't
Speaker 2: know if you know, Alaska one of the biggest consumers
Speaker 2: out there. A lot of Alaskans have issues and a
Speaker 2: lot of that has to do with the fact that
Speaker 2: it's dark for so long.
Speaker 3: Yes, right, six months.
Speaker 2: So what happened was is he actually flew a guy
Speaker 2: in who had gone to the grocery store and he
Speaker 2: had one six pack of beer. But the Alaska law
Speaker 2: reads that if you bring beer into Beaver County in
Speaker 2: any way, shape or form, for any reason, whatever you
Speaker 2: bring it in can be confiscated. So what they're basically
Speaker 2: doing is saying that if he went, if the if
Speaker 2: he loses this case, they're going to take his plane.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it was his passenger who did it.
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter, it's him, it's his vehicle. It's his vehicle.
Speaker 2: I don't know if he knew or not, but he
Speaker 2: you know, he flew in there. I hope he's got
Speaker 2: a common sense judge. Yeah, you know, yeah, this is
Speaker 2: going to the Supreme Court. By the way, eighty two
Speaker 2: year old guy, Yeah, eighty two years old. It says
Speaker 2: for centuries English common law tookhim to account the characteristics
Speaker 2: of the defendant or his or her specific violation and
Speaker 2: what they're hoping that will happen here. He's like, look, man,
Speaker 2: this guy's eighty two years old. He brought a a
Speaker 2: guy with a six pack of beer, or you going
Speaker 2: to take his plane as one hundred thousand dollars plane.
Speaker 2: Why are they pushing this because it's against the law,
Speaker 2: and I mean they're they're just kind of sticking to
Speaker 2: the ball. The whole story is is why don't they
Speaker 2: just chill out find him or something. You choose what
Speaker 2: laws you pursue. Yeah, I don't know here it is
Speaker 2: in the since the since theid argued in court the
Speaker 2: state seizure is a plane valued at ninety five thousand
Speaker 2: dollars runs a foul of the Eighth Amendments ban on
Speaker 2: excessive fines. And now the Supreme Court will have to weigh.
Speaker 3: In the US Supreme Court or the Alaska.
Speaker 2: You know what the funny thing is. I believe it's
Speaker 2: the Alaska Supreme.
Speaker 3: Court, as is the US Supreme Court is already out
Speaker 3: of session.
Speaker 2: Done. Yeah, it says the Alaska Supreme Court held that
Speaker 2: under the alcohol importation ban, the state was required to
Speaker 2: confiscate his airplane. So maybe it is the US Supreme Court.
Speaker 2: Maybe he's appealing it all the way to the US
Speaker 2: Supreme Court. Yeah, it's exactly what he's doing. Now the
Speaker 2: Supreme Court will weigh in on whether he's right. I
Speaker 2: guess it'll just be the next session.
Speaker 3: It's a long time to wait if you get to
Speaker 3: keep your plane.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And he's been fighting this for a while. This
Speaker 2: happened a while back. He's been fighting this for a
Speaker 2: long ass time. It's his Alcohol abuse is a serious
Speaker 2: problem in rural Alaska, and airplanes are sometimes the only
Speaker 2: realistic means to commit the crime of alcohol importation. That's
Speaker 2: what a legal brief said from the state. It says
Speaker 2: he was convicted for his own knowing and international or
Speaker 2: intentional misconduct, and forfeiture removes the business asset that was
Speaker 2: the means used to commit the offense. So they're basically
Speaker 2: claiming he didn't know the guy had it on him,
Speaker 2: and then when he flew him into Alaska, he intentionally
Speaker 2: broke the law, and for that, the law says, we
Speaker 2: take whatever you brought it in. If it was a yacht,
Speaker 2: if it was a an airplane, if it was whatever,
Speaker 2: we're taking it.
Speaker 4: I can't imagine him taking that kind of risk with
Speaker 4: the only way he has to make a living.
Speaker 2: It says. A trial court in twenty eighteen ruled that
Speaker 2: the state taking Joppy's plane would be an excessive fine
Speaker 2: under the Constitution, though the Alaska Supreme Court ultimately decided
Speaker 2: otherwise in twenty twenty five, leaving the United States Supreme
Speaker 2: Court as the one time pilots only remaining outlet for recourse.
Speaker 2: So I don't even think he's flying anymore. Eighty two
Speaker 2: years old. Crazy all right four seven nine four one
Speaker 2: text us at seven seven zero three one back in
Speaker 2: one second, fresh keyword.
Speaker 1: We now returned to the Jim Colbert Show Show.
Speaker 19: Got another one, guys, I'm sorry to keep doing that.
Speaker 2: Don't worry about Alcoholism is.
Speaker 19: Especially a scary, you know, addiction, because you can't just
Speaker 19: quit it cold turkey. It's a physical addiction. So you
Speaker 19: can be like, yeah, man, I'm just done with it.
Speaker 19: But if you just quit and you've been drinking for
Speaker 19: a long time and you can go into seizures, they
Speaker 19: could seriously kill you. So you have to wean yourself off.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've uh, obviously we've heard that about alcohol. Yeah,
Speaker 2: really really bad. There's a real famous video of John Daly,
Speaker 2: the professional golfer, walking down the fairway, and his battle
Speaker 2: with alcohol had been pretty public, you know, he talked
Speaker 2: about it quite often. And he is, you know, it's
Speaker 2: a summer day or whatever, and he's walking and he's
Speaker 2: like shaking. Yeah, he's like literally shaking. I think a
Speaker 2: fuzzy Zeller who is another player, was walking besideing kind
Speaker 2: of his arm around him, trying to kind of get
Speaker 2: him in the you know, get him through that round.
Speaker 2: But yeah, you can see it live in an action
Speaker 2: right there. And if you've never seen the movie Leaving
Speaker 2: Las Vegas with Nicholas Cage, which was one of his
Speaker 2: unbel I mean, one of his best performances ever. Elizabeth
Speaker 2: Shoe is in the movie as well. It's about a
Speaker 2: guy who kind of lost everything and then decided he
Speaker 2: was going to drink himself to death and go to
Speaker 2: Vegas to do so. And uh man that if anything
Speaker 2: brings home the idea of alcoholism at the ultimate level,
Speaker 2: that does terrible. I mean, I say terrible. It's a
Speaker 2: great movie, but it's hard to watch. New. By the way,
Speaker 2: that is your five o'clock keyword in e W go
Speaker 2: to real radio out of him and send that away
Speaker 2: for your chance in a thousand bucks. New is the word, guys,
Speaker 2: we get that money. I'm Jimner's deb jack Us here
Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, hello, how are you? I'm good? Good, Deb.
Speaker 2: You like to drive fast? No, I like to drive
Speaker 2: fast as well. I think it's fun. I do it
Speaker 2: less than I ever have before. I'm more of a
Speaker 2: cruise control guy these days. I don't want to get
Speaker 2: pulled over anymore. I'm tired of getting pulled over, so
Speaker 2: I don't do that anymore. Jack. You're not a speeder either,
Speaker 2: are you.
Speaker 5: I used to be when I was a teenager, but
Speaker 5: I outgrow it.
Speaker 2: Now you're not that right now. I just I save
Speaker 2: it for the track. I bring this up. I bring
Speaker 2: this up for a reason out of curiosity. This is
Speaker 2: a Fox thirty five story, by the way, out of curiosity.
Speaker 2: How much money do you think speeding costs Americans every year?
Speaker 2: You mean the fines they pay? No's Can I tell you?
Speaker 2: The scary part is it's not even counting that. It's
Speaker 2: how much more gas you use to speed. And then
Speaker 2: I'll give you the number the average time that you
Speaker 2: save while speeding, a collective number. Yeah. So, in other words,
Speaker 2: how much money collectively the US spends more than they
Speaker 2: should on gasoline because they're speeding. In other words, their
Speaker 2: cars would get much better gas mileage if they just
Speaker 2: drove the speed limit instead of speeding. You're burning that
Speaker 2: much more gas because you're speeding. One billion dollars a
Speaker 2: billion one Now it's twenty two million dollars, Okay, twenty
Speaker 2: two million dollars that Americans spend collectively more than they
Speaker 2: have to simply because they speed and cost themselves gas,
Speaker 2: you know, cost themselves miles per gallon. Right, how much
Speaker 2: time do you believe you save by speeding collectively for
Speaker 2: that twenty million? Yeah, for age for any single trip,
Speaker 2: like when you let's say ninety second, let's say we
Speaker 2: drive deb and I drive from Mountain door Eustas. Every
Speaker 2: Debini take the exact same route to work every day.
Speaker 2: I mean the exact same route. It almost takes the
Speaker 2: exact same time for us both to get here. It's
Speaker 2: about between thirty two and thirty four minutes based on
Speaker 2: the traffic. Right, that's what you have. No, where are
Speaker 2: you thirty? Yeah? Okay, well there you go. Okay, right,
Speaker 2: so to four minutes? Right, you get here two minutes
Speaker 2: before I do? Then, right, you get here two minutes
Speaker 2: faster than I do. And that's the average, it's average
Speaker 2: of one hundred and twenty to ninety seconds. Is all
Speaker 2: you get more while speeding. Now, if that's not your
Speaker 2: goal to get there faster, and that's for me, that's
Speaker 2: the goal. I just want to get to where I'm
Speaker 2: going faster. I'm not trying to get a thrill out
Speaker 2: of it anymore. But that if you think that drive,
Speaker 2: you know, instead of going seventy, you're going eighty five,
Speaker 2: and you think, well, i'll get there, you're getting there
Speaker 2: exactly ninety seconds to one hundred and twenty seconds faster
Speaker 2: than the person going seventy an hour. I remember hearing
Speaker 2: that back in high school. Oh yeah, that's stat and
Speaker 2: it's costing you so much money that I didn't know. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean I assumed, yeah, it's more gas, but I
Speaker 2: never considered collectively how much more fuel is being used. Yeah,
Speaker 2: for people who speed it, says the authors. In the
Speaker 2: latest study, a statement explained one hundred and twenty million
Speaker 2: real world trips in the US. Researchers took all that
Speaker 2: data and took into account the US road network, speed limits,
Speaker 2: and elevation to create these models. Because obviously your car
Speaker 2: will burn more out west when you're you know, going
Speaker 2: up and down hills like that. Yeah, it'll burn a
Speaker 2: little bit more more gas. But in said it pointed
Speaker 2: out that many of the previous studies use localized, small
Speaker 2: scale samples for general fuel economy assumptions that use lab
Speaker 2: test results. This is a real deal on the trip
Speaker 2: every day, one hundred and twenty million people. Also, it
Speaker 2: could say fifty seven metric tons of carbon dioxide every
Speaker 2: day six point seven million gallons of gas extra burn
Speaker 2: because people speed, And I don't know what your average
Speaker 2: cruise speed is. I'm a nine guy. Nine over is
Speaker 2: your max. Yeah, nine over is the max. Like our
Speaker 2: speed limit going home is sixty five miles an hour
Speaker 2: on the.
Speaker 3: Four fourteen til you get to the four twenty.
Speaker 2: We get them four twenty nine, it goes up to seventy.
Speaker 2: I'll go sixty four and I'll go seventy eight or
Speaker 2: seventy nine on the other road. That's it. Nine is fine.
Speaker 2: Ten your mind, Yeah, that is fine, ten your mind.
Speaker 2: But you don't do that though you a little bit
Speaker 2: faster than that. Right, You've blown by me and I'm
Speaker 2: going seventy four.
Speaker 3: What's because you drive like an old woman? And that's
Speaker 3: not my fault.
Speaker 2: Seventy seventy four fifty four miles an hour and I
Speaker 2: go four.
Speaker 3: Over that one. I'm still under the town.
Speaker 2: But I'm talking about the road that's sixty five miles
Speaker 2: an hour. This this first one is only sixty five.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you that the worst road is this one
Speaker 2: going to it.
Speaker 3: Oh, well, the whole four fourteen sucks.
Speaker 2: Said, Those extra tens of millions of dollars and millions
Speaker 2: of gallons of gas are not saving much time either.
Speaker 2: In the end, research is s made that you're saving
Speaker 2: less than a minute off of your commute by doing that.
Speaker 2: I've heard the average is actually little bit more than that,
Speaker 2: but I find that it really is way less. And
Speaker 2: the thing that thisisses me off the most God when
Speaker 2: it comes to speeding. And these are these self taught
Speaker 2: lessons in life that you see every day and you
Speaker 2: just it just doesn't soak in. Is when you blow
Speaker 2: by somebody on a highway and you're like, oh, man,
Speaker 2: I you know that guy driving so so I get
Speaker 2: out of my way. I got place to be. And
Speaker 2: you get about five miles down the road and you
Speaker 2: hit a stomp light. Who pulls up right next to you.
Speaker 3: Yep, that's called karma.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the person you just blew by thinking you're gonna
Speaker 2: get so much faster for me, though I don't know
Speaker 2: about you guys. I use the lights. For me. It's this,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do whatever it takes to get on the
Speaker 2: other side of that light. That's my goal. Because on
Speaker 2: the other side of that light allows me to go
Speaker 2: to that next light. You see what I'm saying. Yep,
Speaker 2: that's my that's my strategy when it comes to driving
Speaker 2: a little bit faster.
Speaker 5: I've done it. I've been on the other side of it.
Speaker 2: You know. It's the track like thinking. It is no joke.
Speaker 5: You think you're getting ahead and then you know, you
Speaker 5: catch up. And the funny thing is is like when
Speaker 5: I when I drive home, I do. I haven't driven
Speaker 5: over like eighty five miles an hour and so long
Speaker 5: because for one thing, I just don't it's I just
Speaker 5: don't want to get pulled over, dude. But not only that,
Speaker 5: you talk about the extra costs, the lack of what
Speaker 5: you're saving, the extra fuel you're using, so the more
Speaker 5: damage to the environment. You're also a more of an
Speaker 5: unsafe driver on the road, causing, you know, making it
Speaker 5: more of a dangerous situation than the cars and pedestrians
Speaker 5: around you.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Man, I don't know. It's just kind of why
Speaker 2: when I saw that, and it's so funny because it
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. I've read this thing before. I mean, you
Speaker 2: know we all have, and you still want to go fast.
Speaker 2: It's just something very fun about driving a little bit faster,
Speaker 2: all right four seven nine one six four one text
Speaker 2: us at seven seven zero three one? Do it like me?
Speaker 2: Do it on the track? Yeah, I ah, take another track.
Speaker 3: I do want to get on the track.
Speaker 2: They do thens they do the driving experiences and stuff.
Speaker 2: You know, during the race one hundred and thirty miles
Speaker 2: an hour, you do. I think during good I think
Speaker 2: during Daytona. Isn't there a thing where they run like
Speaker 2: a raffle or something, or they have a day and
Speaker 2: if you pay a certain fee you can take your
Speaker 2: car out on Daytona. I think you can and drive
Speaker 2: it around. I think I remember a couple of years
Speaker 2: ago somebody did that and called in right, because we
Speaker 2: talk about the banks are so high.
Speaker 3: I'd be too scared to do that. You have to
Speaker 3: know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but because I mean the bank is like when
Speaker 2: you go to the banks in Daytona, if you haven't
Speaker 2: been on the field there, it would be it's difficult
Speaker 2: to walk to the top.
Speaker 3: I remember you saying that it was difficult to walk.
Speaker 5: It at thirty three degrees is quite significant when you
Speaker 5: were on foot.
Speaker 3: Yeah, coople to do it flat.
Speaker 2: I had a couple du dried motorcycles around it. During
Speaker 2: Bike week, they did this very thing where they left
Speaker 2: dudes in Harley's big old sleds come out there and
Speaker 2: those things are super heavy, just keeping them a balance
Speaker 2: without the kickstand down, you know, to stop like some
Speaker 2: of those bikes, some of those big backers, it's you know,
Speaker 2: they're very heavy, and I remember I got them go
Speaker 2: and that got hi. Remember a guy telling me when
Speaker 2: they go around there, man, you you better have some
Speaker 2: speed because if you don't go around that turk, you'll
Speaker 2: just follow your ass over.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you need to. You need to be a certain
Speaker 5: speed so that banking is helping you and not hurting.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, you gotta get those g's going.
Speaker 5: So while they had a little trioval out at the
Speaker 5: Disney area where they did Richard Petty Driving Experience, Yeah,
Speaker 5: I got to do that one there, and I remember
Speaker 5: when I was out there, it was.
Speaker 2: So you know. The funny thing is I remember being
Speaker 2: on a Disney property and it was so obnoxious. You
Speaker 2: could hear that thing everywhere, and I was like, I
Speaker 2: cannot believe Disney's allowing the stay that's it was so
Speaker 2: unbelievably loud. You could actually go out there and drive
Speaker 2: supercars as well. Is that what you're talking about?
Speaker 11: Right?
Speaker 5: I drove it. My speed was about one twenty eight.
Speaker 5: Would you drive what's which one? I don't know whatever
Speaker 5: stock car? They probably it was a stock car.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they had a thing out there for a
Speaker 2: while toward the end, I believe where you could go
Speaker 2: out and you know, drive like a Ferrari or a
Speaker 2: Lambow or something and it's like a NASCAR stock car. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I thought they had an in like a road track inside,
Speaker 2: much like they do in Daytona for the Rolex. I
Speaker 2: thought they had that and we would and you could
Speaker 2: actually go out there. And I think they added that
Speaker 2: on toward the end where you could drive like a supercar,
Speaker 2: you know, for like, you know, four or five hundred bucks.
Speaker 2: You could do like three laps, but it's regulated. They
Speaker 2: won't let you go over a certain you know, a
Speaker 2: certain speed. You have some guy with you, it's like no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: not too fast, not too fast. Look, I'm driving a Lambo.
Speaker 2: I pay to drive a Lamborghini. I mean my my
Speaker 2: Ranger goes one hundred.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna go power you. I don't want to
Speaker 3: write it can't afford to fix it.
Speaker 2: All right four oh seven nine one six one four
Speaker 2: one text us at seven seven zero three one when
Speaker 2: we get back. There's a little story around the Odyssey,
Speaker 2: the big movie that's out right now. Charlie Starron got
Speaker 2: herself in a little hot water. Have you guys heard
Speaker 2: the story? You have not, I'll tell you about it next.
Speaker 14: So allegedly there's a spot on Highway twenty between Aiken
Speaker 14: and Columbia, South Carolina, that you could see for miles
Speaker 14: in both directions, and if you hit it just right
Speaker 14: and there's nobody around within eyesight, you can open up
Speaker 14: your car and get it up to some.
Speaker 2: Pretty good speeds.
Speaker 21: And allegedly I know somebody really close to me that
Speaker 21: got his nine to eleven up to almost one hundred
Speaker 21: and seventy one time before it was just too much.
Speaker 18: Yeah, ay there, Jim. I don't know if I fully
Speaker 18: believe that whole speeding thing. I think, you know, people
Speaker 18: definitely tend to be using more fuel as they're speeding,
Speaker 18: unless you're monitoring where your fuel gauge is and how
Speaker 18: fuel efficient your car is if it's a newer car,
Speaker 18: because it tells you on the flip side. I know
Speaker 18: for sure I am saving at least forty minutes when
Speaker 18: I drive from Orlando to Fort Myers. So I'm gonna
Speaker 18: just keep doing.
Speaker 22: You keep alling, asked, all right, buddy, to show this
Speaker 22: Chris and Rawleigh a couple of years a good opportunity
Speaker 22: to take Marv to Atlanta Speedway for a NASCAR race.
Speaker 22: The Thursday night is all drinking barber qn. But they
Speaker 22: would let you take your car, a private car on
Speaker 22: the track, like you don't got to pay for anything.
Speaker 22: You go out there and drive around as fast as
Speaker 22: you wanted to. They'd put like sports cars together. Let
Speaker 22: them go, the chuckers, let them go. We did one
Speaker 22: hundred and ten and nineteen ninety eight suburban.
Speaker 2: Damn. Yeah that was fun. Yeah, I bet it could
Speaker 2: come apart.
Speaker 7: I'm definitely not driving slow.
Speaker 13: I'm in this car.
Speaker 7: I'm on somebody else's car right now because I have
Speaker 7: a truck.
Speaker 6: But this thing one's sixty.
Speaker 9: So why you hot?
Speaker 7: I mean, yeah, and it's just American to drive fast,
Speaker 7: well said, Well said, change my mind, young lady.
Speaker 2: All right, your five o'clock keyword is new n EW.
Speaker 2: Go to real radio DOFM and send that away. From
Speaker 2: your chance at one thousand bucks. New is the word
Speaker 2: goes Jim. There's dead hell Jack's ear as well.
Speaker 5: I have a family, will be the last country to
Speaker 5: adopt self driving cars?
Speaker 2: Trivia coming up in just a few minutes. Of course,
Speaker 2: at the six o'clock hour, we'll talk to Scott Brown.
Speaker 2: It's only money, so Charlie's Saron. Obviously, this is a big,
Speaker 2: big movie. This Odyssey movie is gigantic. It's going to
Speaker 2: continue to make money. It has been the talk of
Speaker 2: all cinema now for the last three or four months
Speaker 2: up until the release last weekend. It is getting glowing reviews.
Speaker 2: Our very own movie reviewer Emily the Movie Girl said
Speaker 2: it was a five star movie, one of the only
Speaker 2: ones she's given that recommendation to that inn obsession. That's right,
Speaker 2: only two this year. Uh. And there are a lot
Speaker 2: of big stars in this movie. Matt Damon, let's see
Speaker 2: Charlie's tarn Zen Daya is in this movie. Tom Holland
Speaker 2: is in this movie. So a lot of players in
Speaker 2: this movie. And this happened with Charlie's Sarn. Now, if
Speaker 2: you don't know anything about Charlie's Stern, by the way,
Speaker 2: she is a stone cold like baller. And if you
Speaker 2: read anything about her life story and how she came
Speaker 2: up in the scrub of Australia, you will realize that
Speaker 2: she isn't your normal dainty Hollywood star kind of young lady.
Speaker 2: Was it Australia or South South Africa? My bad, you're
Speaker 2: right South Africa. Yes, she watched her mother shoot and
Speaker 2: kill her father, her abusive father, and uh yeah, I
Speaker 2: mean had it covin. And so she's a tough gal, right,
Speaker 2: And that's what we hear from Hollywood insiders who talked
Speaker 2: to her. They talk about she's kind of dudish a
Speaker 2: little bit right, has a little bit of that dumb
Speaker 2: tomboy thing going in.
Speaker 9: Right.
Speaker 2: So the story is that Charlie's thereon may O Matt
Speaker 2: Damon's wife, Luciana an apology. Now, you guys tell me
Speaker 2: if you think this is out of bounds here, right,
Speaker 2: if you think this is too much. The actress she
Speaker 2: plays the immortal ce Nymph Calypso in the movie, and
Speaker 2: she went on and on and gushed about him how
Speaker 2: incredible Matt Damon's physique was while doing an interview, and
Speaker 2: of course he reveals that he went through this grueling
Speaker 2: training schedule to get jacked up for the movie of
Speaker 2: King Odysseus. She is, I've seen him without that suit on.
Speaker 2: He's incredible, incredible, And people picked up on that and
Speaker 2: thought that she went overboard explaining a married man's body
Speaker 2: or physique.
Speaker 3: You don't think you'd mind Jack, She could.
Speaker 2: Talk talk about me like that, Amy. You know, Amy
Speaker 2: Poehler has her podcast Good Hang and Uh. Matt did
Speaker 2: the show and said that his life changing transformation was crazy.
Speaker 2: He told comedian Amy Poehler, it's way different to begetting
Speaker 2: jacked in your fifties. It's really really hard. It's just
Speaker 2: a complete, complete lifestyle change altogether. You just put your
Speaker 2: feet on the gas and that's it. It's the only
Speaker 2: way to do it. Eat a little less, no gluten.
Speaker 2: Changed his life. But it was her comments that have
Speaker 2: Hollywood buzzing because they say that she kind of went
Speaker 2: overboard on explaining how good that Matt Damon looked. Who's
Speaker 2: a married man. What's that limit?
Speaker 9: She?
Speaker 5: I think the it is if she said and implied
Speaker 5: something about having a relationship with him or wanting to
Speaker 5: do something with him, I think that's that would be
Speaker 5: crossing the line.
Speaker 2: But she didn't. It was just about how good someone
Speaker 2: loved well.
Speaker 4: And not only that, it wasn't just about how good
Speaker 4: someone looked, it was also the effort it took to
Speaker 4: get there. Yecause I think more of her comments when
Speaker 4: she acknowledged that the struggle after fifty to get that
Speaker 4: kind of physique is a completely different struggle than when
Speaker 4: you're in your thirties.
Speaker 2: And by the way, she's had to do this in
Speaker 2: a number of movies, right, I mean, she's had a
Speaker 2: number of action movies, whether it be the Mad Max
Speaker 2: movies or any of the other a unflux movies that
Speaker 2: she's done, where she's had to be an incredibly good shape.
Speaker 5: Am I supposed to apologize for all the things I'm
Speaker 5: thinking about?
Speaker 2: Charlie Stern? Let me ask you this. It's funny is
Speaker 2: it gender based? Is that why this is being brushed
Speaker 2: off so easily? Because if one of our sales reps
Speaker 2: we just hired a new sales rep here, she's a
Speaker 2: sweet girl, married kids, the whole nine yards. But if
Speaker 2: she came in first day and I go, wow, man, unbelievable,
Speaker 2: great legs, great legs, you look amazing, that's pretty innocuous.
Speaker 2: Right now, it's not the same. Why not. It's just
Speaker 2: because it's male to female, that's it.
Speaker 4: Right, No, it's because it's one actor to another actor
Speaker 4: acknowledging what you had to do.
Speaker 3: To actually fulfill that role.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the first half she gushed about his body, the
Speaker 4: second half she gushed about everything he had to do together.
Speaker 2: Now insane. She just said, outside of his suit, he
Speaker 2: looks amazing, really amazing, incredible, in other words, without the
Speaker 2: Odysseus costume on, with just him and like shorts and
Speaker 2: a T shirt or whatever, maybe not even that looks amazing,
Speaker 2: implying that she's seen him in that way. But if
Speaker 2: a girl walks in, Let's say we hired a new
Speaker 2: sales guy. Guy's ripped, really good shape. Matter of fact,
Speaker 2: we used to have one of these guys here and
Speaker 2: Nam Sam was an unbelievable shape. Good dude too, right,
Speaker 2: And if he walks in and one of the sales
Speaker 2: reps who's a female, says, wow, dude, you look amazing.
Speaker 2: Are you you're working out a lot? Really? You look great?
Speaker 2: I don't think that gets taken this same way at all.
Speaker 2: It does not. Yeah, I mean, what's the double standard?
Speaker 5: Why is that because we are a patriarchal society and
Speaker 5: and the just the gender roles that we've grown up.
Speaker 5: And it's just the way it is as far as yeah,
Speaker 5: just the way it is.
Speaker 2: The comments, don't they don't flow back and forth.
Speaker 3: You upset you're not getting anything.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, it has nothing to do with that. I
Speaker 2: just found it interesting that that you know how that
Speaker 2: play goes. Because here's the thing. I've learned my lesson here,
Speaker 2: because I can be very familiar too fast. I've done
Speaker 2: this a lot in my life, where I'll comment on
Speaker 2: somebody's look or what there. And I've learned my lesson
Speaker 2: because I've gotten that kind of cross look where I'm
Speaker 2: not trying to You know, I'm happily married and have
Speaker 2: been for twenty years, and I would give somebody a
Speaker 2: compliment and think to myself immediately, oh man, that was
Speaker 2: maybe out of bounds and it didn't even mean to be.
Speaker 2: And here's where I've here's where I've changed whereas I
Speaker 2: would say, whereas I would used to say, man, that
Speaker 2: dress looks amazing on you, right, you don't say that anymore.
Speaker 2: Now here's what you say, that color looks amazing on you, right, right,
Speaker 2: maybe it's a blue dress, a pink dress, or red
Speaker 2: yellow dress, whatever the case may be. Instead of commenting
Speaker 2: on the garment itself and how it fits the body,
Speaker 2: I go, you know, that color really compliments your you
Speaker 2: know you, I think it looks great on you. But
Speaker 2: I think you could also say that's a that's a
Speaker 2: pretty dress. Yeah, I think that.
Speaker 5: And it's it's funny because it's one there's an accepted
Speaker 5: language of when you are hanging out, and then when
Speaker 5: you go into a corporate environment, a business, a professional environment,
Speaker 5: the you know, a lot of the common talk does
Speaker 5: not fly, not even locker room. This general talk about
Speaker 5: how you know, more casual conversation doesn't fly in a
Speaker 5: business environment. But then you also have changing views towards
Speaker 5: how we speak and like through the whole me Too
Speaker 5: movement and and over the past few years. It's some
Speaker 5: of the comments you would have said to a co
Speaker 5: worker twenty years ago you're not saying today.
Speaker 4: I think by complimenting the dress, you take the overtness
Speaker 4: out of it, right, because now you're focusing on the dress,
Speaker 4: not the body.
Speaker 2: It looks.
Speaker 4: How it looks that is a really pretty dress says
Speaker 4: nothing about you.
Speaker 2: How about this one? That dress makes you look less fat?
Speaker 4: Is that I would pay you a dollar ten dollars, Jack,
Speaker 4: I will pay you ten dollars to do just that.
Speaker 2: And who do you want me to say it to
Speaker 2: something that you.
Speaker 3: Want to get you ten dollars for it?
Speaker 2: But if you you come in here all the time
Speaker 2: and like you will have a new shirt on or whatever,
Speaker 2: and I will say that, I'll go in, that shirt
Speaker 2: looks really good and you haven't seen that shirt before.
Speaker 2: That blouse looks nice on you, right.
Speaker 3: And I'll do the same for you, Like why are
Speaker 3: you all dressed up?
Speaker 2: You look nice today yesterday, Jack?
Speaker 3: Nice, nice haircut?
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 4: But we're we're familial in that way. Like I wouldn't
Speaker 4: say that someone else.
Speaker 2: Emily came in yesterday look cute as a button, right,
Speaker 2: because she she really takes good care of herself, because
Speaker 2: it's a cute little shoes, cute little dress. But I
Speaker 2: tell her that, No, I don't say anything. I don't
Speaker 2: know her well enough. I don't know where I want
Speaker 2: to tell her. She looks at me because I think
Speaker 2: women love compliments, do they not ask? I think you
Speaker 2: look great today? What a cool looking dress? Or whatever.
Speaker 2: What a cool outfit. I tell her boss this all
Speaker 2: the time. Judy is our boss. She and she wears
Speaker 2: some pretty dope clothes. Uh, and she kind of punk stuff, right,
Speaker 2: I mean plaid pants and stuff like that's pretty bad ass.
Speaker 5: I told her yesterday. I'm like, that outfit is awesome.
Speaker 5: But it's also there's a couple of dynamics there. One
Speaker 5: is age in relation to the person who is giving
Speaker 5: the compliment right where you could be one of them
Speaker 5: is father and the other one you're is more your contemporary,
Speaker 5: and the other one is positioned. And if you hold
Speaker 5: power over that person or they hold power over you, right,
Speaker 5: Whereas when you're doing it to your boss, it's it's
Speaker 5: a different it hits different different dyna.
Speaker 2: Right. Then when it is with someone who's a guest
Speaker 2: on your show, Yeah, do you compliment somebody if they're
Speaker 2: working out and they've lost weight like that? I mean,
Speaker 2: is that a weird thing?
Speaker 23: You know?
Speaker 3: Sometimes that's tricky.
Speaker 4: It is, really that is tricky because you don't want
Speaker 4: to say, man, you were really fat before, and that's
Speaker 4: kind of like what they hear.
Speaker 2: I almost did it somebody today, A dude in the
Speaker 2: building almost I almost asked that person, Wow, man, how
Speaker 2: much weight have you lost? Because I don't want to
Speaker 2: imply that they're on a drug or they've done anything
Speaker 2: like that. And I know that sounds silly, but I
Speaker 2: think there's still a little bit of soft tissue around that.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: Can you say you look like you've lost weight? Is
Speaker 2: that okay?
Speaker 5: Because there's people who lost weight and then no one notices,
Speaker 5: and they're like, in all that effort, no one even
Speaker 5: no one's ever mentioned it.
Speaker 4: That one I feel a little bit more uncomfortable with.
Speaker 4: And hey, that's a cute shirt.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: The weight thing, yeah, hey your GPL wanting it.
Speaker 2: I mean, but what if one of the reps comes in,
Speaker 2: like it's a female rep and and obviously you can
Speaker 2: see that maybe over a period of time she's made
Speaker 2: a body trans information because she's working at her training.
Speaker 2: Is it safe to say, hey, man, you are you
Speaker 2: working out? Looks amazing? You look incredible.
Speaker 4: It would depend on my relationship with that person individually,
Speaker 4: And if I didn't know them well enough, I would
Speaker 4: just just clear.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't say anything.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wouldn't because I'd be too nervous that I'd
Speaker 4: stick my foot in it. Because I don't know them
Speaker 4: well enough, and maybe I would be that one person
Speaker 4: that was like, man, you made me feel like.
Speaker 2: And it's weird though, because and I don't know this
Speaker 2: is if this is a tick in my personality or whatever.
Speaker 2: I want to compliment people who have done well for themselves.
Speaker 2: I want to compliment people who system you, who have
Speaker 2: made efforts to achieve, not to be better, because I
Speaker 2: think that's so subjective, but at least to achieve a
Speaker 2: goal they set out to achieve. Like, you know, if
Speaker 2: you started working out and you had a goal of
Speaker 2: getting stronger, maybe losing a little bit of weight, to
Speaker 2: compliment that I think is really good. I mean you say, hey,
Speaker 2: look you know I mean, are you working out?
Speaker 13: Yeah?
Speaker 2: You cann't tell? I mean you look amazing.
Speaker 5: So you also have to be careful because there's other
Speaker 5: reasons for people losing weight. Tex text says they complimented
Speaker 5: someone and say, hey, you lost a bunch of weight,
Speaker 5: haven't seen you in a while, and the person responded
Speaker 5: with that pancreatic cancer in a couple months to live.
Speaker 2: Oh ouch?
Speaker 5: Right, And then another texta writes in never comment on
Speaker 5: people's bodies.
Speaker 2: Ever, right, I think that's the safe bet, right, But
Speaker 2: I think you can do that and not mean to
Speaker 2: sometimes with the whole clothing thing, Like, I mean, I
Speaker 2: think you can do that.
Speaker 4: That's why it's best to compliment the clothing and not
Speaker 4: the person wearing it.
Speaker 5: Okay, so you look smoking hot in that outfit? Not good?
Speaker 2: You're talking to me? Yeah, I think it's fine, Jack,
Speaker 2: and thank you. How about I think it's amazing and
Speaker 2: I appreciate a better fact brings some more on that outfit.
Speaker 2: That outfit looks smoking hot.
Speaker 3: Ye, it's a brand new shirt. He's never worn this
Speaker 3: shirt before.
Speaker 2: I'm you. How about how about this up to somebody
Speaker 2: and go, hey, you're not stretching out your button holes anymore?
Speaker 4: I like that one are. Actually, hey, I can see
Speaker 4: you really do only have one chin. That's awesome. Did
Speaker 4: you have to clean between the floor?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you washed that other chin away. And women will
Speaker 2: do that to each other, right, Like, Like, here's the
Speaker 2: funny thing is, I'll even tell like guys in the building,
Speaker 2: who if you're wearing something cool? But hey man, that's
Speaker 2: a that looks good on you. You know, I have
Speaker 2: no problem with that. I think it's kind of fine
Speaker 2: to compliment people. I think it makes their day, Like
Speaker 2: nothing makes my day more than complimenting somebody I've never met.
Speaker 2: You know where I get a lot of this, Like
Speaker 2: public's when I go grocery shopping, Like the people who
Speaker 2: are checking out or whatever.
Speaker 4: Oh, you're that creepy guy. It's not creepy, and.
Speaker 2: I don't see it really good. You get in that soup?
Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no, no, no really tomato basil, no no.
Speaker 3: No, can I follow you.
Speaker 2: It's just that when when you get up there, they're
Speaker 2: so nice to you and they go, hey, did you
Speaker 2: find everything you're looking for? I'm like, and I always
Speaker 2: want to say, obviously I'm checking out, but I don't
Speaker 2: because I'm not a complete dick, because that's not true.
Speaker 5: Oftentimes I'm hoping they asked me because I came in
Speaker 5: looking for something they didn't have it. They the botty
Speaker 5: being cherries. They had the Maraschino but not the bott
Speaker 5: of beings. Yeah, you don't want marashinos in your bourbon.
Speaker 2: You do not want. I'm checking out with the.
Speaker 5: Stuff I did find, but I did not find everything
Speaker 5: I was looking for.
Speaker 2: Legitimate question. It's not a legitimate question. Every time they
Speaker 2: asked me. I'm going, well, I'm here, I am checking out,
Speaker 2: so obviously I didn't find everything I'm looking for. Him,
Speaker 2: I'm standing in front of you.
Speaker 3: I I usually say, found more than I was planning
Speaker 3: to exactly.
Speaker 2: That's that's a costco saying. But if you if I
Speaker 2: given you for C tips all of a sudden, I
Speaker 2: got a sight of.
Speaker 5: Beef, and if they didn't have Q tips, but you
Speaker 5: leave with the side of beef, that question is relevant.
Speaker 2: Oh Jack. Anyway, I'll tell these people that are I mean,
Speaker 2: they're obviously young people, and I'll tell you. I'll tell
Speaker 2: you the last time I did this. Uh, the bag
Speaker 2: boy the other day, I was getting some stuff the
Speaker 2: bag boy. The girl was talking to the bag boy
Speaker 2: like I wasn't even there right, so cash reisterre guy
Speaker 2: was talking to a girl was talking to the bag boy.
Speaker 2: She and she mentioned something about something that happened that day,
Speaker 2: and he goes, you know what, I don't care about that.

Speaker 2: their first They opened it up for elections in forty
Speaker 2: seven and had their first election in fifty five.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 2: So here's some fun facts about Indonesia. Which one of
Speaker 2: these is not true? Becky, Here we go. Number one,
Speaker 2: Indonesia is the world's leader in frog legs. Number two
Speaker 2: Indonesia's home to the world's largest Buddhist temple at twenty
Speaker 2: seven thousand square feet. Number three Indonesia is the world's
Speaker 2: leading exporter of bamboo. Or lastly, in nineteen thirty eight,
Speaker 2: Indonesia was the first Southeast Asian country to qualify for
Speaker 2: the World Cup. Which of those is a lie? No,
Speaker 2: that's absolutely true. Indonesia is home to the world's large
Speaker 2: Buddhist temple. It is twenty seven thousand square feet. Wow,
Speaker 2: all right, deb two, three, four or five.
Speaker 3: We're gonna go two.
Speaker 2: Right, there's Gary, Gary, how you doing. I'm good, glad
Speaker 2: to hear that. Gary. We're talking about the we're talking
Speaker 2: about Indonesia. Which one of these is not true? Number one,
Speaker 2: Indonesia is the world's leader in exportation of frog legs.
Speaker 2: Number two, Indonesia is the worldly nee exporter of bamboo.
Speaker 2: Or lastly, in nineteen thirty eight, Indonesia was the first
Speaker 2: Southeast Asian country to qualify for the World Cup. Number two,
Speaker 2: that's the one you're winning an emual hole, buddy. China
Speaker 2: is the number one producer of bamboo in the world.
Speaker 3: I would think France for the frog legs.
Speaker 2: No, Indonesia's frog legs. That's it. Oh, that's right. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they were right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was thinking about adding that to my backyard. Yeah, bamboo, Yeah,
Speaker 5: you gotta be very careful. I know there's different species
Speaker 5: fast growing, but you want to get one that's not
Speaker 5: as invasive. I know there's specific type and bro you
Speaker 5: don't need much. Yes, because I went to it.
Speaker 2: There's a bamboo place that we drive by every single
Speaker 2: day that we come to and from work, right off
Speaker 2: of the four twenty nine, and I remember buying bamboo.
Speaker 2: Remember the boat house, the boat the boat thing. Well,
Speaker 2: I put bamboo in front of that. It took about
Speaker 2: one year for that to create a fence of bamboo
Speaker 2: that we had to wind up trimming back. It grows
Speaker 2: so fast, it can take over so quickly. And you
Speaker 2: know what loves it? What rats? Oh?
Speaker 11: Really?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, because what they do is when the bamboo
Speaker 2: leaves fall down into the stand of bamboo, it creates
Speaker 2: this layer that they tunnel through and create nests inside
Speaker 2: of their code. Black's neighbor has it and he has
Speaker 2: to deal with it all the time, giant fat ass
Speaker 2: rats running across his fence and stuff that live in
Speaker 2: that bamboo. Never mind. Yeah, but it's the cheapest way
Speaker 2: to give yourself property privacy. It is by far the
Speaker 2: cheapest way. It's not that expensive at all. A couple
Speaker 2: other things you may not know about Indonesia before we
Speaker 2: get to the top of the hour. Indonesia is the
Speaker 2: world leader and exporting of frog legs. Indonesia nineteen thirty
Speaker 2: eight was the first Southeast Asian country to qualify for
Speaker 2: the World Cup. Indonesia has the world's largest volcanic lake,
Speaker 2: Lake Toba, is four hundred square miles and sixteen hundred
Speaker 2: feet deep lake like a little ocean, you know, like
Speaker 2: a little golf. Indonesia is the only home on Earth
Speaker 2: for the It's a reptile kimodo draken. That's it exactly that. Yeah, uh, Indonesia.
Speaker 2: Indonesia is the world's largest producer of this kind of oil. Baby,
Speaker 2: It's used in everything. Palm oil. You got it. Palm
Speaker 2: oil is the answer. Oh wow, the worlds. They produced
Speaker 2: ninety percent of the world's palm oil. By the way,
Speaker 2: that's supposed to being in city is business really Yeah.
Speaker 2: I remember when about four or five years ago they
Speaker 2: had to really crack down on that business because they
Speaker 2: were basically just just working people to death in that
Speaker 2: in that business, it is a real kind of one
Speaker 2: of those yeah, where the labor laws really aren't paid
Speaker 2: attention to, which is weird in Adonesia, you figured it'd
Speaker 2: be great. And then lastly here Indonesia has the world's
Speaker 2: largest population of this religion. It's Muslim, two hundred and
Speaker 2: thirty one million of them. It is eighty seven percent
Speaker 2: of their entire population as Muslim.
Speaker 4: Which is why in the beginning I was thinking the
Speaker 4: Buddhist temple could have been the lie.
Speaker 2: It was wild because I couldn't figure that either. But yeah,
Speaker 2: because the Buddhist temple was not I mean, obviously Muslims
Speaker 2: are not Buddhists. Right, deb went three for three on
Speaker 2: your Indonesia quiz. Yeah, yeah, she likes it. It would
Speaker 2: be a fascinating country to visit to. Yeah, it's like
Speaker 2: a series. It's an archipelago, Jay, No, what is it?
Speaker 2: Not going to say? What is it, buddy, archipelago? It's
Speaker 2: like seventeen thousand little islands or something. It's it's some
Speaker 2: crazy number.
Speaker 3: Plus their biodiversity is off.
Speaker 2: It's one of the most it's one of the most
Speaker 2: biodiverse countries in the world.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it really is too far and expensive to get to.
Speaker 4: But man, that and going to Thailand.
Speaker 2: I think they also have Yeah, the world's largest archipelago
Speaker 2: state fourteenth largest country by area. Let me see here.
Speaker 2: I think they say how many islands it was, but
Speaker 2: it was a ton of islands. I want to say,
Speaker 2: like seventeen thousand islands or something ridiculous like that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I can't find it anyway. Four or seven nine one

Speaker 2: pot had like maybe four or five stalks of bamboo
Speaker 2: in there, and you basically just pull it out and
Speaker 2: plant it. So we just dug a bunch of hole

Speaker 5: gets up ten minutes before me at least, because I
Speaker 5: know it's going.
Speaker 2: To be ready. Oh yeah, you get a cup of
Speaker 2: coffee coming? Yeah? And how do you prepare your coffee?
Speaker 5: A little pure vanilla creamer and pure is the Aldie brand.
Speaker 5: And it's like that sweet bliss where it is just cream,
Speaker 5: sugar and flavor and vanilla.
Speaker 9: Right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So you don't put any other sugar in there
Speaker 2: because it has sugar in there. I have sugar. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's uh, do you like it? A little?
Speaker 13: Free?
Speaker 2: Servings of that and coffee. Three serving, well you haate
Speaker 2: it real sweet? No, no, no, not too sweet. But
Speaker 2: a serving is a tablespoon. That's a lot, dude. Three
Speaker 2: tablespoons of that stuff and a cup of coffee at
Speaker 2: one hundred galleries. How about you win cut that's it
Speaker 2: number too, because there's stomach thing generally.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I'd love to have a second cup of coffee.
Speaker 4: It depends how much time there can lapse between the
Speaker 4: first cup, because once you drink that second cup and
Speaker 4: your stomach says, oh yea yeah, yeah, not a good.
Speaker 5: Movie drink that you drink that second cup with and
Speaker 5: you didn't have like a big dinner to night before.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, the acid in your stomach.
Speaker 2: Is just I hope that doesn't happen to me when
Speaker 2: I get old. You eventually get their jack, I have
Speaker 2: to almost two every day. By the way, you brew
Speaker 2: your coffee or do you a currig and then jack
Speaker 2: you brew or a currig? Yeah? Brew? Yeah, so a
Speaker 2: currack curierd right?
Speaker 5: No, he does a drip pot right, yeah. Actually it's
Speaker 5: a it's a combo. It's got a carrier on the side. Yeah,
Speaker 5: but yeah, we've got that one.
Speaker 2: So fancy. You guys are so fancy.
Speaker 3: No, no, okay, mister and miss presso seventy.
Speaker 2: Bucks on sale. You spend seventy bucks on coffee in
Speaker 2: a week.
Speaker 3: He ain't lying.
Speaker 2: Coffees?
Speaker 3: Do you have? I?
Speaker 2: I have too, almost every morning, but it is a
Speaker 2: time situation for me, like a little half and half.
Speaker 2: And I use raw sugar because raw sugar still has
Speaker 2: the molasses in it and it gives you a much
Speaker 2: better kind of rounder flavor. I think that granulated white
Speaker 2: sugar has a has a bit of a synthetic flavor
Speaker 2: to it, and I don't care for it. It's too sweet.
Speaker 2: This other sweet is kind of a warm sweet, and
Speaker 2: white sugar is kind of a kind of a shrill suite,
Speaker 2: which I don't care for. Harsh, Yeah, a little bit
Speaker 2: like shrill. Whatever you want.
Speaker 5: However, I'm not fancy. I just like you're using shrill
Speaker 5: to describe sugar.
Speaker 4: Thank you in a warm sweet versus a shrill sweet.
Speaker 2: This is in a review of in the review. In
Speaker 2: a review of the latest research, the American Heart Association
Speaker 2: found that multiple cups of your morning brew will not
Speaker 2: have a negative health effect on you. But now how
Speaker 2: much you drink does matter, it says. In a study
Speaker 2: published on July twentieth, researchers found most adults can safely
Speaker 2: consume up to how many cups of coffee per day
Speaker 2: without increasing cardiovascular disease. Is that just from like the
Speaker 2: caffe and your heart going crazy? Is that what would
Speaker 2: cause it to go bad?
Speaker 3: Between that and the sugar and the creamer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it depends on how you're drinking the coffee.
Speaker 4: Yes.
Speaker 2: And by the way, these findings are based on black coffee. Oh,
Speaker 2: black coffee, just black coffee. I'm still gonna say three
Speaker 2: cups just because of the stomach issue. I think three
Speaker 2: sounds about right. Five is the answer? What? Yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's about how much my grandfather used to drink every
Speaker 2: day of his life. Might drink My grandfather drank coffee
Speaker 2: every minute of every day. Occasionally he would have like
Speaker 2: a fresca that was his respite from coffee, but it
Speaker 2: was coffee all day long. The cup, the pot never
Speaker 2: was cold. His coffee pot was never cold. Every time
Speaker 2: I came to his house, his coffee pot was always
Speaker 2: warm because he was always drinking coffee, black co coffee. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I think he did drink black coffee. I think we
Speaker 2: will man drink black coffee too. My daughter only drinks
Speaker 2: black coffee. My wife and I drink it the same way.
Speaker 2: She doesn't link half and half, so she does just
Speaker 2: milk with sweet and low or stevia. Yeah, splendo.
Speaker 5: Credit to the people who can drink black coffee, their
Speaker 5: life is easier. Well, it is easier, yeah, But I
Speaker 5: will tell you this, you know, I think that's dependent
Speaker 5: on what kind of coffee you drink, because if you
Speaker 5: go to some places like dunkin or seven eleven or
Speaker 5: Wahwa whatever, I mean, that's good enough coffee or whatever,
Speaker 5: but you're not having like a real coffee experience. I
Speaker 5: don't believe, and I don't believe you can have that
Speaker 5: at Starbucks either. And I'm not trying to be addicted
Speaker 5: to anybody out there, but there are a couple of
Speaker 5: coffee shops in town.
Speaker 2: I've said it before. If you want to taste what
Speaker 2: real coffee tastes like, just take a few minutes of
Speaker 2: one of your days, one of your weekends and go
Speaker 2: to Lineage over at Easton Market off of a Krin
Speaker 2: down by Baldwin Park. Right that it is poor of coffee,
Speaker 2: but it's it's the bean, man. And when you taste
Speaker 2: that coffee, don't put anything in it. Don't put any sugar,
Speaker 2: any cream in it until you taste it black. And
Speaker 2: you will never experience a cup of coffee like that
Speaker 2: before in your life. There are fruity notes in that coffee.
Speaker 2: It is so unbelievably good that you will get notes
Speaker 2: in that coffee. You can't explain.
Speaker 5: I am waiting to taste a note. I have not
Speaker 5: tasted a note yet with cigars with bourbon, so anything
Speaker 5: I eat so drink, I don't taste note.
Speaker 2: You do, You just don't understand it. Correct, Okay, So
Speaker 2: if you drink bourbon, you can't tell me you can't
Speaker 2: taste like vanilla and orange in that. You can't or
Speaker 2: you can't taste that in bourbon. That's why.
Speaker 3: Well there's only been two bourbons of the week, so
Speaker 3: you still learn it.
Speaker 2: He drinks a lot of damn bourbon. I've got a
Speaker 2: really good bottle of bourbon two years ago. It is good.
Speaker 2: I do enjoy that one.
Speaker 5: But I'm doing what am I adding sugar water, a
Speaker 5: cherry and an orange.
Speaker 2: Right, Don't do that. Don't do that, Just drink it
Speaker 2: straight up. Man, if you get a good cup of
Speaker 2: coffee from Lineage and you drink it, I guarantee everybody
Speaker 2: out there if you do this, and I'm not trying
Speaker 2: to blow them up. I got no side deal with them.
Speaker 2: I just know that it's the best cup of coffee.
Speaker 2: There are two cups of coffee. I remember specifically every
Speaker 2: Saturday morning. I used to go to Lineage Coffee when
Speaker 2: I lived down there, and I would get coffee, and
Speaker 2: I'd go to Old Heart and get pastries. It was
Speaker 2: glorious that you live that close to something that produced
Speaker 2: that quality of product. And the other one was at
Speaker 2: the Waldorf Astoria. Oh yeah, we got we got room service.
Speaker 2: And by the way, the room that we got that
Speaker 2: weekend was a freebie. A guy that we knew years
Speaker 2: ago offered us a free weekend up there, and we
Speaker 2: went up and stayed there the weekend. Torey went to
Speaker 2: the Spa, I played golf. Whatever they're in in room.
Speaker 2: Coffee that they bring just for their service in the
Speaker 2: morning was one of the best cups of coffee I've
Speaker 2: ever had my entire life. I remember it. It was
Speaker 2: like literally twelve years ago, and I remember it every
Speaker 2: single minute of it. It was that good.
Speaker 3: It should be. For the Weldofer story.
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I don't even know what we paid for it,
Speaker 2: probably thirty dollars for that craft of coffee. But I'm
Speaker 2: telling you was worth worth it, worth every drop. And
Speaker 2: like when you get a lineage, they're not giving that
Speaker 2: out either. I mean, you're paying seven and a half
Speaker 2: dollars or so for a couple of coffee. But I'm
Speaker 2: telling you, man, if you want that next level experience,
Speaker 2: everybody does this, right, Everybody once in their life will
Speaker 2: go and have that steak you've heard about, or go
Speaker 2: to that seafood restaurant and have that pasta dish. You know,
Speaker 2: it's going to cost a bunch of money, right, everybody's
Speaker 2: gonna go out there and order a tomahawk steak one day.
Speaker 2: There are one hundred and fifteen dollars apiece. But somebody's
Speaker 2: gonna do it because they've heard so much about it,
Speaker 2: because it's that one in a lifetime experience for me,
Speaker 2: the food thing in that world, the taste, that's like,
Speaker 2: that's where you guys talk about going to Europe. I
Speaker 2: would spend that money traveling around the US eating at
Speaker 2: the best restaurants that's what would excite me.
Speaker 4: Oh no, you need to take that same money and
Speaker 4: go to Europe and have your gastronomical mind blown over there.
Speaker 2: Though they they mark it as a rube, and you
Speaker 2: go there and they give you that it's like a
Speaker 2: It's like in that one vacation movie when to Europe,
Speaker 2: like everybody thinks they're getting fancy food and they're just
Speaker 2: microwave it in the back well.

Speaker 5: one one cup. You would have never guessed I was fit,
Speaker 5: and you're a you're a one cupper.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm gonna say. He doesn't even do coffee.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say that he's gonna do some kind of
Speaker 4: an electrolyte drink.
Speaker 3: He's gonna do smoothie or something like that. I think
Speaker 3: he's I think he's gonna Yeah.
Speaker 8: You know, I'm not like that lift forever guy drinking
Speaker 8: that green slop or whatever.
Speaker 2: And it doesn't matter.
Speaker 4: To a Colombian. I would like to assume it's all coffee.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, that's weird. Thing.
Speaker 8: Before I answer that question, my wife does not drink
Speaker 8: coffee as a Colombia as a co which I think
Speaker 8: is against the law. Yeah, some of the best coffee
Speaker 8: in the world comes in there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. Is so.
Speaker 8: I drink exactly one cup of coffee in the morning
Speaker 8: and one espresso.
Speaker 2: In the after Do you really that's a very thing
Speaker 2: to do. Yeah.
Speaker 8: Yeah, if I drink, I mean I occasionally, if I'm
Speaker 8: just dragging, I'll throw it down a cup in the afternoon.
Speaker 8: But I'm also a snob, like I like really good coffee, right, Yeah,
Speaker 8: where do you get yours?
Speaker 2: What do you do?
Speaker 8: I I get I'm I don't mind Starbucks, But there's
Speaker 8: a couple other places around town. I like, there's you know,
Speaker 8: Foxtail has a decent cup of coffee.
Speaker 4: They do.
Speaker 2: Have you tried lineageyet over at Easton Market? No, but
Speaker 2: I've heard buddy, listen. Listen to me. Please listen to me. Yeah,
Speaker 2: run your ass over to Lineage and have a cup
Speaker 2: of pour over. Don't do anything fancy, and don't put
Speaker 2: anything in it until you drink it. I drink it
Speaker 2: black anyway, buddy, let me tell you are going to
Speaker 2: have a much different coffee experience. It is unbelievably good. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it is so different than any coffee that you've experienced before.
Speaker 2: And I hope I'm not over hyping this, but the
Speaker 2: first time I tried a cup, I remember taking that
Speaker 2: first sip and said, I've never experienced coffee that hit
Speaker 2: me like that. I mean, you can taste different notes
Speaker 2: in the coffee, like when they tell you this coffee
Speaker 2: has this like mine had a bit of an orange
Speaker 2: thing to it, a tinge of orange in there that
Speaker 2: you could taste after it got off your palate. Unbelievable
Speaker 2: cup is.
Speaker 8: There's the flash frozen version that they use or do
Speaker 8: they use like actual fresh ground?
Speaker 2: I think they do fresh or by the way, and
Speaker 2: don't think you're gonna slide in and slide out. This
Speaker 2: is not a Starbucks. I'm calling in for my coffee scenario.
Speaker 2: This is you wait in line and they pour it
Speaker 2: over and they make it cup by cup, they grind
Speaker 2: it cup by cup, and it takes you a good
Speaker 2: eight or ten minutes to get the cup of coffee,
Speaker 2: maybe sometimes longer.
Speaker 8: So the number one cup of coffee and this will
Speaker 8: be the coffee show the number one cup of coffee
Speaker 8: I've ever had mine. So I go to Guatemala most years.
Speaker 8: It's a good works kind of trip and a cup
Speaker 8: of fresh literally straight out of the field ground and
Speaker 8: dry coffee in Guatemala overlooking the rainforest is absolutely the
Speaker 8: best cup of coffee I have. I will literally fly
Speaker 8: for four hours to have that cup of coffee.
Speaker 2: It's great. Yeah, it's amazing. Yeah. So I was telling
Speaker 2: those guys before the the other one I had that
Speaker 2: was amazing. And I don't know where they sourced this from,
Speaker 2: but we had a free weekend at the Waldorf. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I heard that out there and their their room service
Speaker 2: coffee was so good. I just couldn't I just couldn't
Speaker 2: stop coming on on how good it left a film
Speaker 2: on the on the cup on the inside because it
Speaker 2: just had that great body to it.
Speaker 8: It makes you want to drink it till like you're vibrating.
Speaker 8: It's like the wife wants to know why.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 13: Well.
Speaker 2: Scott joins this every single Tuesday around the time to
Speaker 2: talk about some things with your portfolio. Of course, he
Speaker 2: runs and manages as werefamilywealth dot com. That's where you
Speaker 2: could go and take the free DNA Wealth DNA test,
Speaker 2: which is right there, which is.
Speaker 8: Very cool by the way. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think
Speaker 8: you know. It's one of the coolest things we've ever done.
Speaker 8: And it took me a while to get it done.
Speaker 8: I worked with Professor Christophe Moore and who's actually uh
Speaker 8: based out of Hawaii, and he and I worked for
Speaker 8: several months to put together the questionnaire to decide, Okay,
Speaker 8: how do we explain to people their personality traits and
Speaker 8: how those personality traits play out with their money. And
Speaker 8: with a lot of trial and error, we finally got
Speaker 8: it nailed down. So if you go to Edgewaterfamilywealth dot
Speaker 8: com you can download the test. I've said it a
Speaker 8: million times. Take it with your significant other because it's
Speaker 8: a lot of fun to kind of look at each
Speaker 8: other and deny that you do the things that the
Speaker 8: test is saying you do, and have your significant others
Speaker 8: say you one do all and the other thing too,
Speaker 8: is I think it's super important to point out that
Speaker 8: your personality could be a bit of a speed bump
Speaker 8: in the way that you look at your finances, and
Speaker 8: I think this will kind of this.
Speaker 2: Will show you maybe where you could either improve or
Speaker 2: where you could lean on some help to kind of
Speaker 2: get to that next level.
Speaker 8: Or how you offset each other, like for me. You know,
Speaker 8: everybody has weaknesses that affect their economics, and some people
Speaker 8: less than others, obviously, but we all have things that
Speaker 8: we do where we look back and go, well, I
Speaker 8: wish I probably should have done that differently, right. But
Speaker 8: the problem is a lot of people look back and
Speaker 8: say I should have done that differently, but don't do
Speaker 8: it differently right because they don't recognize exactly what it
Speaker 8: is they did.
Speaker 2: The well DNA test kind of.
Speaker 8: Helps you think about, oh, yeah, I see what's telling
Speaker 8: me that I overreacted in the last down market. I
Speaker 8: sold my whole four oh one k to cash and
Speaker 8: that's why today I don't have the returns.
Speaker 2: A lot of the people I know do. And when
Speaker 2: you take the test, it'll spit out a like a
Speaker 2: what's the word I'm looking for? Score? Yeah, just a
Speaker 2: score or you know, just a descriptor yeah, that's exactly it, right.
Speaker 2: And the cool thing is is you can actually call
Speaker 2: Scott with that information and you guys can work through
Speaker 2: that information that you're receiving and kind of explain what
Speaker 2: that may mean for you and things like that. It's
Speaker 2: a good way to start your relationship with the Edgewater. Yeah.
Speaker 8: Some people, you know, one of the labels is a protector.
Speaker 8: Maybe you're a person who's, you know, primary goal in
Speaker 8: life when it comes to money is protecting your family.
Speaker 8: You know, you're a little risk averse because you're like,
Speaker 8: this mistake could cost my kid college or something to
Speaker 8: that effect. And while sometimes that's a good thing, sometimes
Speaker 8: it's also a bad thing. It makes you miss opportunities.
Speaker 8: Some people are what we call a wealth commander, and
Speaker 8: that's a person who wants to take their finances and
Speaker 8: beat them into the ground and wrestle them into submission.
Speaker 2: And sometimes that doesn't work so well. Yeah, for sure,
Speaker 2: and I know that coming in today. By the way,
Speaker 2: it's Edgwater Family Wealth dot com. You can go to
Speaker 2: the poll down bar and make a reservation or not
Speaker 2: a reservation, but make a consultation. For these guys. You
Speaker 2: can just call up and they've got a couple of
Speaker 2: books there we'll tell you about in a little bit
Speaker 2: as well. First things first, though, congrats, thank you grandpa.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, Bratcher whom you've heard on the show
Speaker 2: here a number of times. Yeah, when Scott's out doing
Speaker 2: his things, Bracher, his son comes in. They had a baby,
Speaker 2: they did yesterday morning. They had a little girl, Draper Lucilla,
Speaker 2: Draper Lucia. Yes, Drapa Lucia Brown was born yesterday. She
Speaker 2: weighed eight pounds and seven us. She was a healthy,
Speaker 2: chubby little girl. She's adorable too, by the way. Yeah,
Speaker 2: she's a beautiful little face. She's so cute.
Speaker 8: She luckily doesn't look like me, so that's positive. You
Speaker 8: heard that from way too many people, by the way,
Speaker 8: But yeah, she's a cute little girl. And everybody's happy
Speaker 8: and healthy. So how's vibes at the house?
Speaker 2: Vibes are ever? It's electric.
Speaker 8: My wife is speaking of vibrating, vibrating around the house,
Speaker 8: trying to figure out what things she's going to do
Speaker 8: next for that.
Speaker 2: How's mom? Everything good?
Speaker 8: Mom is great, She's I was telling deb out in
Speaker 8: the hallway that when I got there yesterday, my son
Speaker 8: looked like he'd been run over by a truck, and
Speaker 8: my daughter in law looked like she just came out
Speaker 8: of a Hollywood set.
Speaker 2: I'm like, didn't this kind of reverse? She did all
Speaker 2: the work and you look like crap. But no, everybody's
Speaker 2: doing great, very good, all right. So you know, and
Speaker 2: I think you and I've had a couple of conversations
Speaker 2: about this, and actually a little bit earlier in the show,
Speaker 2: we talked about the polymarket, call she the prediction markets, right,
Speaker 2: and of course we know that fan duel hard rock
Speaker 2: bets and things of those nature. You know, we know
Speaker 2: for a fact that's already having an adverse effect on
Speaker 2: specifically young males, for sure. Correct. The poly market thing
Speaker 2: was just disgusting because we were talking about how they
Speaker 2: allow you to bet on wildfires, how much acreage that'll ruin,
Speaker 2: how many houses get burned, and things of that nature.
Speaker 2: But you have not a different look. But you have
Speaker 2: a look on this as well, don't you. Yeah.
Speaker 8: I mean that some of the obvious concerns, you know, again,
Speaker 8: sports betting brings. We've seen a huge uptick in the
Speaker 8: number of scandals in professional sports and people shaving points
Speaker 8: and doing things in college sports that they shouldn't do.
Speaker 8: And nobody should be surprised by that. These are young men,
Speaker 8: you know, sometimes they come from impoverished backgrounds. So if
Speaker 8: somebody says, look, man, I'll throw you fifty grand. If you,
Speaker 8: you know, miss a layup every once in a while,
Speaker 8: I'm going to probably consider missing a couple of layups.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 8: So aside from that, though, I think the biggest thing
Speaker 8: people aren't considering when it comes to these gambling things
Speaker 8: for these young men, and I just I think I
Speaker 8: just gave you a stat that less than sixteen percent
Speaker 8: of Americans read a book last year, but fifty six
Speaker 8: percent of Americans placed a bet.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 8: Now, I don't know about you, but that feels like
Speaker 8: a bad thing, that doesn't feel productive, does.
Speaker 2: Not feel good.
Speaker 8: And so one of the things, one of my big
Speaker 8: pushbacks on it is not necessarily the gambling itself, which
Speaker 8: is bad enough, right, It's bad enough that you're going
Speaker 8: to place a bet that more than likely you're going
Speaker 8: to you're gonna lose. There's a reason that these large companies,
Speaker 8: I'm not going to name any of them, but these
Speaker 8: gambling companies have an average market capitalization of sixteen seventeen
Speaker 8: billion dollars. You know, they're they're huge money making companies.
Speaker 8: So forget the fact even that you're not gonna win
Speaker 8: most of your bets, because that's statistically how it worked,
Speaker 8: and you don't hear about that on social media.
Speaker 2: All you hear about is people who put to you know,
Speaker 2: put a one dollar bet in one thirty grand.
Speaker 18: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean they only push the good side.
Speaker 8: These companies are making billions of dollars, not because they lose, right.
Speaker 8: You have to keep in mind that the house has
Speaker 8: the advantage in every circumstance.
Speaker 2: Which is fine.
Speaker 8: If you had to drive to Vegas to get that
Speaker 8: done and it was a once a year thing, fine,
Speaker 8: that's entertainment.
Speaker 2: I really don't care that much.
Speaker 8: The problem is we now have a whole group of
Speaker 8: young men, in particular ages seventeen to about thirty, that
Speaker 8: truly believe this is a mechanism for building wealth. They
Speaker 8: see it on social media. And it's not even so
Speaker 8: much that it's not gonna work. It's what happens after
Speaker 8: it doesn't work. And what happens after it doesn't work
Speaker 8: is they become bitter. They look at this thing and
Speaker 8: they say, well, I bought the meme stock, or I
Speaker 8: did you know the prediction markets are I bet on
Speaker 8: the wild far of the pitch count, or when we're
Speaker 8: gonna bomb people in Iran. I did all these things
Speaker 8: and I didn't make any money. And what they're not
Speaker 8: gonna say at the end, you know, from a seventeen
Speaker 8: to thirty, they wake up one day, they don't have
Speaker 8: any money, They're living in their mother's basement, and they're
Speaker 8: not gonna say I made a mistake, right, They are
Speaker 8: not going to say that. What they're going to say
Speaker 8: is the system is rigged. It's against me. I'm bitter,
Speaker 8: I'm angry, and there is nothing Scott Galloway would say,
Speaker 8: there's nothing more dangerous than a bitter single man with
Speaker 8: no opportunity. Absolutely, they are dangerous human beings and we
Speaker 8: are creating millions of them by doing this. So what
Speaker 8: they're gonna say is, well, I'm not gonna do my
Speaker 8: four oh one k I'm not gonna put money in
Speaker 8: an IRA, I'm not gonna say it. I'm not gonna
Speaker 8: use a bank because it's all rigged. And the reason
Speaker 8: it's all rigged is because they've been gambling for the
Speaker 8: last thirteen years and have not used any legitimate sources
Speaker 8: for building wealth and capita. So they apply their losses
Speaker 8: on hard rock bet or any of the other platforms
Speaker 8: to the stock market. To losing in the market, because
Speaker 8: I mean, you could make the argument that the stock
Speaker 8: market sure is no different than a hard rock bet
Speaker 8: app or a call she bet or something like that.
Speaker 8: I mean, some people would try to make that correlation.
Speaker 8: I know it's different, but I know that some people
Speaker 8: will try to make that. Well, it's a false equivalent.
Speaker 8: I mean, it's not this. These are real companies with
Speaker 8: real profits, with real employees, with real products and on
Speaker 8: and on and on and on that we can pay
Speaker 8: dividends and that have grown from this price to that.
Speaker 8: I'm not gonna go on all day, right, how ridiculous
Speaker 8: that comparison is. But but again it's it's it's not
Speaker 8: that I'm necessarily against gambling. You know, a friendly bet
Speaker 8: on the golf course is always fun. But the reality
Speaker 8: is we have we are convincing an entire group of
Speaker 8: young men that this is actually a way to accumulate wealth.
Speaker 8: They actually believe this because they see the Lamborghini, they
Speaker 8: see the Corvette, they see the twenty three year old
Speaker 8: with the you know, with this stacts with the world
Speaker 8: and money and all the things that are not real. Right,
Speaker 8: and it is the probability of you acquiring wealth like
Speaker 8: that is almost as your right, right, right, But again,
Speaker 8: I don't even have a problem so much with that.
Speaker 8: It's what happens when we have thirty million, twenty five
Speaker 8: year old bankrupt that are bankrupt.
Speaker 2: They have no probably possibilities.
Speaker 8: They're not finding a spouse, they're not procreating, they're just
Speaker 8: pissed off. And that is a very dangerous group of
Speaker 8: human beings we are building, and it's because we've allowed
Speaker 8: this to happen.
Speaker 2: It was about two years ago we had somebody call in.
Speaker 2: It was a teacher or female teacher. It was a call.
Speaker 2: Was it guys or was it a text? Do you
Speaker 2: guys remember this? She called in. We had asked the
Speaker 2: question like, you know, how many people do you believe
Speaker 2: or you know, under the age of twenty or nineteen
Speaker 2: or whatever with this bet app? And a girl, a lady,
Speaker 2: called in and she was she's a teacher to high
Speaker 2: school here in central Florida somewhere, and she said she
Speaker 2: posed that question to her class, and out of the
Speaker 2: thirty one people in her class, every single teenage boy
Speaker 2: with exception of one, raised their hand when she asked
Speaker 2: them if they had the hard rock bet app on
Speaker 2: their phones.
Speaker 8: And these are high school kids, high school kids. Yeah,
Speaker 8: so we're burying them before they even get out the door.
Speaker 8: We are burying them with false belief. We are burying
Speaker 8: them with no opportunity. We are for the for the
Speaker 8: ability for these companies to make I mean, I've been
Speaker 8: kind of taken to task for calling these companies out,
Speaker 8: but it's utterly terrible. It's just a boring behavior and
Speaker 8: it's it's not going to end well for some I
Speaker 8: don't know how many people are between the ages of say,
Speaker 8: fifteen and thirty young men, but it's a lot of them,
Speaker 8: and there are many of them are going to be
Speaker 8: very very very unhappy at some point, and we're all
Speaker 8: going to be very very unhappy that we let them
Speaker 8: become unhappy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know what you do about that, Scott,
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, I guess the only way to
Speaker 2: do that is to find legislators or politicians that feel
Speaker 2: the same way. Vote those people in the office so
Speaker 2: they pass some type of regulation that regulates people to
Speaker 2: how much they can bet, what they can bet, where
Speaker 2: they can bet. But again, in a free market, in
Speaker 2: a free society, that's hard to do because I mean,
Speaker 2: you know, we look in America here, we look at hey,
Speaker 2: you get the money, you can spend a night.
Speaker 8: I get it, man, and I'm not necessarily against it.
Speaker 8: I'm just telling you what the repercussions are going to be. Yeah,
Speaker 8: I should say it's a free country and you can
Speaker 8: do these things and it's totally fine. And I really
Speaker 8: can't argue with that. I mean, I get it. We're
Speaker 8: a free will people, and I'm in favor of that.
Speaker 8: But I am telling you that if we don't find
Speaker 8: a way to nudge these young men in a different direction,
Speaker 8: which is kind of government's role is not to be
Speaker 8: over air, but to nudge a proper direction. But to
Speaker 8: your point on the politicians, I mean, there's so much
Speaker 8: lobbying money being thrown at these politicians. I don't I
Speaker 8: don't see an end to it. I can't even imagine
Speaker 8: how much the tribe spins. Oh my god, I can't
Speaker 8: even imagine how much the tribe spins.
Speaker 5: Well, ah, I once read this quote, very wise individual
Speaker 5: who once said gambling is a slow moving cultural suicide.
Speaker 2: That was a brilliant man that.
Speaker 5: Fifteen minutes ago or was it text I got within
Speaker 5: the hour for mister Scott Bright so Scott that he
Speaker 5: nailed it. If you I mean, if you're you know again,
Speaker 5: I mean, I know that you're not trying to parent
Speaker 5: for people out there, but if you have you know,
Speaker 5: we have a lot of people that listen to have
Speaker 5: kids in this wheelhouse and that you know, maybe in
Speaker 5: that seventeen to twenty five year old age. You know,
Speaker 5: Luckily I don't have anybody. I have three daughters and
Speaker 5: a son. My son doesn't really gamble on that.
Speaker 2: He does. He does, like going to the market. He's
Speaker 2: been buying selling stocks a little bit, just kind of
Speaker 2: toying around with that, but he doesn't really sports gamble
Speaker 2: because he has friends that do, and he sees exactly
Speaker 2: what happens to them. But I mean, how would you
Speaker 2: explain to somebody that, hey, man, you probably need to
Speaker 2: sit your kid down and have a real man to
Speaker 2: man and say, hey, look, you know this is this
Speaker 2: is not a good path.
Speaker 8: I mean, if it were me, I mean, my son's
Speaker 8: thirty two and he doesn't do any of it, but he, like,
Speaker 8: like you said, he has friends that do. If it
Speaker 8: was my policy in my house, it'd be no, not
Speaker 8: till you leave my house. You are not to gamble
Speaker 8: on any You're not to have an app if I'm
Speaker 8: paying your phone bill, you do not get an app.
Speaker 8: They don't get to do any of that. And the more,
Speaker 8: you know, we know men's prefrontal cortexes don't develop till
Speaker 8: twenty five. Right, they're just making bad I made bad decisions.
Speaker 8: I just didn't have the ability to do what they
Speaker 8: have the ability to do. Had I had the ability
Speaker 8: to sports gamble on my phone at twenty two, I
Speaker 8: for sure would have done it.
Speaker 2: Well. The other thing, too, Scott, is like, you know,
Speaker 2: on top of that, you know, you're not regulating how
Speaker 2: deep the hole can get, you know, I mean you're
Speaker 2: not you know, the whole double down thing. Oh, I
Speaker 2: lost a thousand dollars today gambling on this, so I
Speaker 2: gotta find some money. And I got to double down
Speaker 2: on this, you know, and again, next thing you know,
Speaker 2: you're six k in the hole. You've sold everything you own,
Speaker 2: you're stealing from your parents.
Speaker 9: Yep.

Speaker 4: Justice Department nor the FBI has publicly commented on the
Speaker 4: reported investigation. No criminal charges have been announced. Mills, however,
Speaker 4: is already the subject of an ongoing House Ethics Committee investigation,
Speaker 4: so he's having a good day. He is after nearly
Speaker 4: thirty five years of distinguished service and law enforcement, including
Speaker 4: the past seven years leading the Mount Dora Police Department.

Speaker 4: restroom locked and a man who couldn't get out.

Speaker 14: the grouge popping out of the trash can, this guy's
Speaker 14: head pops out and says, I'm right here.

Speaker 4: recover a mountain dew bodle he dropped the night before.
Speaker 4: Kansas City firefighters eventually got opened the porta potty to freedom,
Speaker 4: then gave him an impromptu shower with a fire hose
