It's eight hundred five two zero one 0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:53.000 five three four. This is Handle on the Law, marginal 0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:56.600 legal advice, where I tell you have absolutely no case. 0:00:57.040 --> 0:00:58.080 All right, couple things. 0:00:58.440 --> 0:01:00.960 We are at the start of the Trump administration about 0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:04.440 a year in and obviously, and if you've listened to 0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:08.440 my morning show Monday through Friday, it is you know. 0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:11.440 I have a real issue with the Trump administration, and 0:01:11.600 --> 0:01:16.240 in terms of LGBTQ rights and dealing with trans and 0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:22.000 dealing with people who are gay, obviously, and the President 0:01:22.120 --> 0:01:25.240 is not much in favor of this. And one of 0:01:25.240 --> 0:01:28.120 the things that the president believes, for example, there's no 0:01:28.160 --> 0:01:30.080 such thing as trans doesn't exist. 0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:33.839 No one can be trans. If you're born a man, 0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:34.520 you're a man. 0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:39.120 And if you want to switch over to a woman, 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:42.160 because that's who you are, if you're wired that way, 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:43.520 it doesn't matter. 0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:44.400 You're a man. 0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:49.240 Whatever appears on that birth certificate, you're a man. So 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:53.040 that one is flying through. There's also the birthright business 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:55.960 that he's doing, which I just don't understand, and that is, 0:01:56.640 --> 0:02:00.240 if your one of your parents is ill, is not legal, 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:03.080 or both your parents are not legal, and you're born 0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:06.000 in the United States, you're not a citizen. Well you 0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:09.120 got you know, the fourteenth Amendment says outright, you're a 0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:12.239 citizen if you're born in the United States, and he's 0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:14.400 trying to unravel that one. I don't know where he's 0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:17.000 going to go with this one. But let me tell 0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:21.360 you what has has gone in his favor, and that 0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:27.000 is the passport birth sex policy. And this has to 0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:32.360 do with you get a passport and you are not 0:02:33.720 --> 0:02:36.840 a trance. It doesn't exist the past. 0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:38.320 Now we're talking about a passport. 0:02:38.760 --> 0:02:43.359 The passport reflects the holder sex at birth. So if 0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:45.400 you're born a man, there your name is as a 0:02:45.440 --> 0:02:48.639 man on the passport and you become a woman. And 0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:50.960 by the way, I do believe people are wired that way. 0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:54.280 I don't think anybody chooses to be gay. Oh boy, 0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:56.079 I'm going to wake up tomorrow morning because I want 0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:57.960 to I want to be gay, or I want to 0:02:58.000 --> 0:02:59.320 be trans. It's who you are. 0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:03.000 And you can ask for a name change. 0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:08.200 People who are trans asked for name changes all day long. Well, 0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:14.400 the American policy now the passport must reflect the holder's 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:18.600 sex at birth. Of course, there was a lawsuit that 0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:24.120 was filed, and this Supreme Court ruled that the Trump 0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:29.640 administration can do exactly that in an emergency order. What 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:35.600 the court said that the requirement that the person's name 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:41.240 and sex be be recognized in terms of a passport 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:44.960 what happens in birth. The court said, the government is 0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:49.760 merely attesting to a historical fact, not subjecting anyone to 0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:55.960 differential treatment. It's just this is who this person is, 0:03:56.920 --> 0:04:00.400 was born a male is a male, and so that 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.800 is not a policy issue. That's just a recognition of 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:09.560 a fact. Well, here is the way it works. The 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:14.320 court has given Donald Trump almost unlimited power. They believe 0:04:14.480 --> 0:04:18.680 that the president can virtually decide anything at any time, 0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:21.600 under any circumstances. That's the way I read it. And 0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:24.880 that's because you've got now a very very conservative court. 0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:30.279 President Trump issued an executive order on an inauguration day 0:04:30.880 --> 0:04:37.640 declaring that the US recognizes only two sexes, male and female. 0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:44.240 That's when the State Department made that change. So there 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:48.080 it is. Passport either has an M or an F 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:53.560 sex marker on it. And that's the way it now works. 0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:57.479 By the way, under the Biden administration, there was a 0:04:57.480 --> 0:05:00.279 new policy that allowed people to chooge x as a 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:04.080 third party if they don't identify as a male or female. 0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:08.120 And guess what, that's off the table now. But that's 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:11.000 where we're gonna get, you know, and you know it's 0:05:11.560 --> 0:05:13.520 you know, I bitch and moan all the time, and 0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:15.159 there are people that say, oh my god, look what 0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:16.480 the Trump administration is doing. 0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:17.560 I know you guys voted. 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:20.120 I didn't vote for Trump, by the way, I didn't 0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:24.919 vote for anybody. I do that quite often. I'm unaffiliated. 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:26.680 I'm not a member of the Democratic Party or the 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:29.440 Republican Party, and I have voted for both sides, and 0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:32.680 then when I'm really unhappy with both sides, I just 0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:37.119 don't vote in that particular race, which I have done. 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:40.640 Now for the presidency, I think three times I haven't 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:43.480 voted because I'm unhappy with everybody. But then you know, 0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:47.760 I'm unhappy with everybody. All right, let's go ahead and 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:53.120 take some phone calls, Susan. Let's start with you. Hello, Susan, 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:54.400 welcome to handle on the law. 0:05:55.640 --> 0:06:00.320 Hey Bill, my daughter nts two large storage units in 0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:06.600 her apartment building. The management company mistakenly flagged them as abandoned. 0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:11.200 Hired a company, and they cleaned both of them out 0:06:11.240 --> 0:06:17.760 and disposed of the items. She has presented them a 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:21.000 demand letter asking for the items back, which has been weeks. 0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:22.080 Now they're probably gone. 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:26.919 But it wasn't like a couple cans of paint. It 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:32.080 was all her furniture, clothing, mementos. 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:34.440 You know Grandma's trying to do. 0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:35.000 I understand. 0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:35.760 Well, let me ask you this. 0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:39.880 That's a real easy question. Yes, they are liable, and 0:06:39.920 --> 0:06:42.760 all they can do is give you money. And now 0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:45.920 you're suing for money. How much money is going to 0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:47.000 be part of that lawsuit? 0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:50.280 Well, that's what we're trying to figure out. We want 0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:52.279 to see if they're going to offer something. 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:55.160 They are, they're going to low ball you. They're going 0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:55.920 to low ball you. 0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:57.840 I'm sure they will. I'm sure they're So. 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:00.359 How much my do you? 0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:02.240 Oh, you don't even have any idea how much is 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:03.040 this worth? Correct? 0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:05.680 Oh, it could be twenty thousand dollars. 0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:07.800 It could be twenty thousand dollars. 0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:10.600 You can't put in a lawsuit it can be twenty 0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:15.160 thousand dollars. You have to You've got to specify this 0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:19.040 is twenty thousand dollars worth of stuff. Okay, so what's 0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:19.720 your question now? 0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:23.080 But what kind of value do you put on sentimental stuff? 0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:29.640 How do you do basically zero? Yeah, the law doesn't 0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:32.280 give a rats about sentimental stuff. I mean, you can 0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:36.520 argue it. But you know, you've got a plate that 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:39.840 you bought, that grandma bought for two dollars and it's 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:44.240 been in the family for three generations. What is that worth? Yeah, 0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:47.880 one thousand dollars? Is it worth ten thousand dollars? I 0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:50.080 mean you can say you can offer me ten thousand 0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:52.240 dollars for this plate, and I would never sell it 0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:55.360 for almost any amount of money because this is my 0:07:55.440 --> 0:07:57.800 grandma who gave it to me, and she loved me, 0:07:57.960 --> 0:08:00.920 and she would cook me a nice google and she 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.280 would bake for me, and uh, you know, it's worth 0:08:03.320 --> 0:08:05.440 everything to me. So what does the court do. Well, 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:08.280 here's ten thousand dollars. The problem is you have to 0:08:08.520 --> 0:08:10.000 prove what it is. 0:08:11.160 --> 0:08:15.080 Yeah, Now, so they're gonna they're gonna offer her something, Yeah, 0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:17.400 to settle it. I'm sure because they kept saying we're 0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:20.880 gonna make it right. We're going because screwed up. 0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:21.880 Yeah, understand. 0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:24.720 And now can we go back and counter them without 0:08:24.760 --> 0:08:25.480 an attorney? 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:28.080 Of course? Of course. 0:08:28.320 --> 0:08:30.480 Okay, you count like crazy. 0:08:31.040 --> 0:08:34.280 Now the problem you have is proving. 0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:35.280 What was you this? 0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:35.720 I know? 0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:41.160 However, No, however, if the court believes if it's reasonable amount, 0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:45.720 and you argue, let me tell you there was a 0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:48.880 set of that was furniture that was worth X dollars 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:50.920 and maybe you have a picture of it or you 0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:55.000 can describe it, and there's an appraiser will say, well 0:08:55.080 --> 0:08:58.840 this these are valued between ten and twenty thousand dollars. 0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:00.920 You go right in the middle you asked for that. 0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:05.000 But the problem is, you know, why don't you ask 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:07.439 for one hundred thousand dollars because you had one hundred 0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:09.520 thousand dollars worth of gold and a box in there. 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:10.199 Yeah. 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:12.160 Yeah, see here, that's the problem. 0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:14.400 Your issue is going to be valuation. 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:20.120 Yeah. So another thing is, can we also go to 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:22.480 her Homewanns insurance with theft. 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:25.880 No, it's up to them. No, it's up to no. 0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:28.400 Of course not. You can't double dip. You're not allowed 0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:30.440 to double dipping. By the way, you don't go to 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.680 the insurance company. They go to their insurance company. You're 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:37.760 not suing the insurance company. You're suing them, and the 0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:42.120 insurance company merely says to them, we will cover you. 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:45.440 That's what insurance is about. You have no relationship with 0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:49.480 the insurance company. So the answer is your problem is 0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:50.600 going to be valuation. 0:09:51.360 --> 0:09:51.480 Uh. 0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:54.840 And I mean you're not gonna get zero. You're going 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:58.920 to describe what is in there. You're gonna have witnesses 0:09:59.040 --> 0:10:01.960 come and say this is what we saw in there, 0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:07.199 or we talked about it or anything reasonable. The court 0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:11.560 will certainly look at Yeah, it's difficult, it really is. 0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:13.559 I mean, you've got a winner there. But the problem 0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:15.440 is you know how much is the winner? 0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:21.880 Don't know?

I didn't have any employees. 0:10:54.920 --> 0:10:59.400 I had companies come here to work. The policy expired. 0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:03.679 Let it expire, and then like two weeks later, well, 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:06.120 they wanted to audit my books. I said no, I 0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:09.480 didn't have any employees. So then then they re After 0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:15.040 that policy expired, I hired another insurance workman's comp insurance. 0:11:15.280 --> 0:11:19.280 They sent me a reinstatency that they're reinstating the policy. 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:23.160 So, well, hang on, but you're saying you hired another 0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:27.560 insurance company. Yes, so the new insurance company wants you 0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:30.880 to reinstate to the old insurance company for you to 0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:32.480 keep your policy. Is that correct? 0:11:32.720 --> 0:11:33.440 No? 0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:38.000 No, no, the old insurance policy wanted to keep me 0:11:38.760 --> 0:11:40.480 on the books for some reason. 0:11:40.640 --> 0:11:40.960 I could. 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:42.520 They would never explain why. 0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:44.920 Okay, you cancel them and you canceled them. 0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:50.080 Correct, Well, here's what happened.

You're telling me my medical bills are one 0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:46.360 hundred and seventy thousand, and the attorney is going to 0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:49.440 take forty five percent right off the top of the 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:51.880 three hundred thousand, so that at least me five thousand 0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:52.280 in debt. 0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:55.520 Okay, So what's your question. 0:13:57.240 --> 0:13:57.920 Happened that be. 0:13:58.120 --> 0:13:59.240 Out of it? Okay, I'll tell. 0:13:59.120 --> 0:13:59.800 You exactly how. 0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:01.960 I'll tell you exactly how that can be. 0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:07.480 Number One, you can actually you fight, you dispute the 0:14:07.520 --> 0:14:10.599 medical bills and you say it isn't one hundred and 0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:14.040 seventy five thousand dollars. And here's why. By the way, 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:17.360 do you have insurance at all? Do you have medical insurance? 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:17.560 No? 0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:21.320 Okay, brilliant, Okay, that's excellent. Good for you. 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:24.840 All right, So the other party's paying, the other insurance 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:27.320 company of the other party is paying. 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:30.440 Okay, then they can't so the insurance company, so they 0:14:30.440 --> 0:14:33.240 can't double dip. Where does one hundred and seventy five 0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:36.400 thousand dollars go to? If they've already been paid. 0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:40.680 They haven't been paid yet, okay. 0:14:40.360 --> 0:14:43.120 So that's one hundred and said, well, if the insurance 0:14:43.160 --> 0:14:46.840 company is going to pay it, then they has that 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:48.880 one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. 0:14:48.560 --> 0:14:49.680 Been paid yet? 0:14:50.560 --> 0:14:51.200 No? Not yet. 0:14:51.240 --> 0:14:52.520 Okay, So that hasn't been paid. 0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:55.640 You said they got one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. 0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:56.240 They haven't. 0:14:56.560 --> 0:15:00.160 It's setting an account my medical bills total to one 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:01.440 hundred and seventy thousand. 0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:04.160 No, I understand, but you're saying the insurance company on 0:15:04.200 --> 0:15:07.840 the other side is paying for it, so uh, and 0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:10.640 it hasn't been paid, So you have a hunt. You 0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:13.480 have one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars in the 0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:17.720 bank or what's the attorney right? Okay, So at that 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:19.880 point you've got one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars 0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:23.440 not in your puncket. But if the other side is 0:15:23.480 --> 0:15:27.080 paying for it, uh, the attorney releases it to you. 0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:28.360 Has to. 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:30.320 There's no such thing as double dipping. 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:33.200 Okay, So you're actually in the good one hundred and 0:15:33.200 --> 0:15:36.000 seventy five thousand dollars if the other side pays it. 0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:40.400 Now they're negotiating, believe me, they're negotiating with the medical provider. 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:43.560 Oh boy, are they negotiating. They're not gonna pay anywhere 0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:45.840 near one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars, but it's 0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:48.640 gonna you're gonna be covered, so your medical bills will 0:15:48.680 --> 0:15:51.720 be covered. Okay, that's for starters, so you don't worry 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:55.680 about medical bills. And now he gets forty five percent, 0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:57.640 what does your retainer say? 0:15:57.680 --> 0:15:59.280 That you signed with the lawyer. 0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:03.240 It says that if the case goes on for more 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:07.800 than six months and is settled before it goes to trial, 0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:11.280 and the attorney gets forty five percent. 0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:14.360 Okay, so you agreed in writing that the attorney gets 0:16:14.400 --> 0:16:19.840 forty five percent, right, Yeah, what part of forty five 0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:22.360 percent does he not get after you've agreed that he 0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:23.000 does get it? 0:16:24.440 --> 0:16:27.800 Well, I mean, but you can't negotiate with the attorney reading. 0:16:27.760 --> 0:16:30.640 After the fact. I don't think he I don't think. Sure, 0:16:30.680 --> 0:16:34.800 you can negotiate. But he's got the money already, right, 0:16:34.880 --> 0:16:36.880 Why would he? Why would he reduce the fee? 0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:42.480 Well, I mean at the point that I'm in debt 0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:44.000 five thousand, No you're not. 0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:46.480 No, you're not. The medical bills are going to be 0:16:46.520 --> 0:16:51.200 all paid, and so forty five thousand dollars forty five 0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:54.680 percent of three hundred thousand dollars is not putting you 0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:55.200 in debt. 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:55.840 Do the math. 0:16:57.840 --> 0:17:01.240 Well, one hundred and seventy three hundred thousand is one 0:17:01.320 --> 0:17:03.080 hundred and thirty five thousand, right, So. 0:17:03.080 --> 0:17:05.200 He's gonna get one hundred and thirty five thousand dollars 0:17:05.280 --> 0:17:07.760 and you're gonna get the rest of the three hundred thousand. 0:17:09.880 --> 0:17:10.480 That's the way I. 0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:12.399 Want people will get there one hundred and seventy. 0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:14.600 Well, yeah, but they're not. It's not gonna be one 0:17:14.640 --> 0:17:15.320 hundred and seventy. 0:17:15.400 --> 0:17:18.160 So if they're willing to pay one hundred and thirty 0:17:18.200 --> 0:17:20.879 thousand dollars, three hundred thousand dollars, you're gonna do a 0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:22.600 lot better than that. You're not gonna be in debt. 0:17:23.200 --> 0:17:25.520 You're not being down. The attorney got a real good 0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:30.080 chunk of money, and you agree to it. Just do 0:17:30.160 --> 0:17:38.720 the math. Zelman's is a minty mouth, but not a 0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:42.240 mint And what do I mean by that? Well, this 0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:44.159 has to do with your breath, your bad breath. You 0:17:44.200 --> 0:17:48.200 wake up morning breath, coffee breath, garlic breath, And a 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:50.679 lot of people don't realize that bad breath not only 0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:52.879 comes from your mouth, which of course you know, but 0:17:53.000 --> 0:17:55.520 also it comes from your gut, your stomach. Why is 0:17:55.520 --> 0:17:58.280 that Because the food that causes bad breath in your 0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:01.760 mouth you swallow and it goes down in your stomach 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:04.840 and it burns and it turns, and you got the acids, 0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:09.760 and that causes bad breath too. So zelmans is are 0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:12.520 these little capsules that you pop two or three in 0:18:12.560 --> 0:18:14.879 your mouth, nice strong MINTI coating, so you suck on 0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:17.080 that and that takes care of your bad breath in 0:18:17.119 --> 0:18:19.679 your mouth. And then you either bite into the capsules 0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:22.800 or swallow them and they go down into your gut 0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:25.720 where they go to work. No mint does that. So 0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:29.399 that's Zelman's Boy, that really does work. 0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:29.919 Now. 0:18:30.400 --> 0:18:35.760 Zelmans until December second is giving a portion of the 0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:40.240 sales to Katerina's Club. A portion of what you pay 0:18:40.359 --> 0:18:43.800 for Zelmans, and it's a good portion goes to Katerina's 0:18:43.840 --> 0:18:47.960 Club to help feed the kids. And it's well, yeah, 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:49.879 I mean, you want kids to eat, don't you? You 0:18:49.960 --> 0:18:52.440 really do. I mean, if you don't buy Zelmons, you're 0:18:52.480 --> 0:18:55.240 being horrible. You're letting kids starve to death. How do 0:18:55.280 --> 0:18:59.680 you do that? So go to Zelmans dot com.
