1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,400 Speaker 1: Don't want to be an American idiot. 2 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 2: In one of the final after President Joe Biden way 3 00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:09,799 Speaker 2: student loans about one hundred and fifty thousand people, you know, 4 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 2: just kind of a little tip of the hat is 5 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 2: he headed out of office about a year ago on 6 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 2: that though, It's not like, you know, the Trump administration 7 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:17,760 Speaker 2: has righted a lot of those wrongs, which is simply 8 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 2: have forgotten about this meant, the total US debt is 9 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 2: almost two trillion dollars in student loans, the average borrow 10 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 2: ohs over thirty nine thousand dollars per person, and so 11 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 2: many more have defaulted on those loans as well. 12 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:33,279 Speaker 3: Delinquency rates are high, the repayment timelines are question well 13 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 3: at this point, where do things stay in relative this 14 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 3: and how do we solve this? Allen Clinch is the 15 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 3: founder of Studentloan Justice dot org. 16 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 4: Ellen. 17 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 3: Welcome back, Ay. 18 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 5: Ben, Good morning, Scott. 19 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 3: We saw default rates spike after COVID and then once 20 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 3: we return to payment or try to anyway, where are 21 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 3: we headed to now relative to the default cliff? 22 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right, Yeah, we are headed for a mass default. 23 00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 5: People are just done. People. You know, so many people 24 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 5: have been paying for years and years and years under 25 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,759 Speaker 5: any one of the alphabet soup of already existing income 26 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 5: driven repayment plans. There's been four since nineteen ninety five, 27 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 5: and the disqualification rate for these IDR programs is upwards 28 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,479 Speaker 5: of ninety percent. And so. 29 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 3: It is a huge crisis. Yeah, there's no I mean, 30 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,320 Speaker 3: if you don't have the money, you don't have the money. 31 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 3: I get that. And it's it's easy to wag your 32 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 3: finger at young people and say it's your fault. But 33 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 3: and I get that too, But I'll be honest with you, 34 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 3: the plans that I've seen from both Trump and Biden 35 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 3: don't really address the issue. I mean, for giving a 36 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 3: loan during COVID, I guess we can suspend that. That's 37 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 3: all fine, But there's no accountability here for universities. That's 38 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 3: why I don't like the entire ballout system. The way 39 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 3: it's been proposed and structured is so what happens is, fine, 40 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 3: we're gonna we're gonna wind up wiping all this debt out, 41 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 3: all right, Well, what then happens, Well, universities will raise 42 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 3: their prices even more because students will have that extra 43 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 3: money to pay students who took on huge levels of 44 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 3: debt will be able to you know, turn that towards 45 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 3: the government, meaning me and you to pay that pick 46 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 3: up the tab and politicians score points with young voters 47 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 3: who seldom turn out in order to get elected or reelected. 48 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 3: So it serves all those interests, but it doesn't solve 49 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 3: the problem. 50 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 4: Right. 51 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 3: The problem is you keep subsidizing college, you get more 52 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 3: and more and more expensive. That's really the problem here, 53 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 3: and it's not addressed in any of these plans. 54 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 5: I actually almost completely agree with you. I mean, the 55 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 5: lending system is a large catastrophic failure at this point, 56 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 5: but the loans will not be paid. So ultimately the loans, 57 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 5: at this late day, they will be canceled. But you 58 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 5: raise excellent points. You know, canceling student loans solves nothing 59 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 5: the price for all. 60 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 6: The reasons that you mentioned, and you. 61 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 5: Know, the core of this problem, Scott, why is in 62 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 5: the fact that, unlike every loan in this country, student 63 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 5: loans have been uniquely stripped of the most fundamental consumer 64 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 5: protections you can imagine, mainly bankruptcy rights. So the family 65 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 5: Father has called for bankruptcy rights, uniform bankruptcy rights in 66 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 5: the constitution ahead of the power to you know, raise 67 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 5: an army and declare war. And this has been stripped 68 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 5: uniquely from student loans. And this really is the lynchpin 69 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 5: that is enabled this runaway spending, run well, runaway charging 70 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 5: tuition prices and so court by the colleges, no accountability. 71 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 5: And you know, counseling loans is all good and well, 72 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 5: but if you don't change the underlying system, then we're 73 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 5: going to be right back where we are now in 74 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 5: a few years. 75 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 3: The system, the system from top to bottom has messed up. 76 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 3: I mean, if you go back to the nineteen sixties, seventies, 77 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 3: I think it was eighteen percent of family income is 78 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 3: what tuition was, which is manageable sixty five. That's when 79 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 3: the government says, hey, you know what, we're going to 80 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 3: guarantee student loans now. And then Sally May gets involved. 81 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 3: And by seventy eight, as all these government programs, more 82 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 3: government gets involved, the more they screw things up. Tuition 83 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 3: and fees crept up to what almost fifty percent of 84 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 3: a family income today. It's a totally government controlled problem. 85 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 3: Because they stepped in guaranteed, subsidized for gave loans. They 86 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 3: have the power of the pen, and all it does 87 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 3: is encourage universities and colleges to hike their prices up 88 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 3: because they're getting free money. It's a simple solution if 89 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 3: you've got government out of this, because I'm guessing back 90 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 3: in the sixties and seventies, you take out a private 91 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,679 Speaker 3: loan like you would for anything else, or you simply 92 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 3: the cost to be affordable for a family to pay 93 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 3: out of pocket. That's not true. 94 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 5: Anymore, No, that's exactly right. And you know, in some states, 95 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 5: particularly a lot of the Southern states, average student loan 96 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:57,359 Speaker 5: that in those states exceeds the yearly earnings of the 97 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 5: average earners there in those states. But you know, Ohio 98 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 5: is actually terrible as well, seventy five billion dollars in 99 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 5: mostly federal student loan debt across the country. And it's 100 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 5: this sort of rampant inflation that just can't be allowed 101 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 5: to continue. Now, we as a group student on Justice 102 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 5: dot Org, we've been pushing probably eighty percent of our 103 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 5: our efforts have been towards getting the right of bankruptcy 104 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 5: returned to these loans, not so that everybody can run 105 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 5: out and file. That won't happen. Nobody wants to foilve 106 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 5: for bankruptcy but rather because bankruptcy serves to constrain the 107 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 5: lending side, it makes it ensures good faith in the 108 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 5: lending relationship. But more, maybe more importantly, it guarantees rational 109 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 5: sort of market based prices. You know, it prevents the 110 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 5: price of the commodity being purchased from getting out of control. 111 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 5: And so if there is even to be a federal 112 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 5: student owned program, I'm going forward, and I'm not sure 113 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 5: the government really is I should be in. 114 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 6: The lending business at this point. 115 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 3: Not very good consider consider our federal debt right now. 116 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 7: Yeah. 117 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 8: Yeah, but if they are, at a minimum, whatever loans 118 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 8: that they want to use to fund higher education in 119 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 8: this country, they've got to have all the consumer protections, 120 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 8: most notably bankruptcy rights that every. 121 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 5: Other loan for every other borrower has. We think that's 122 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 5: really the core of the problem. And you know, if 123 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 5: they had returned bankruptcy to student loans back when we 124 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 5: started our group eighteen long years ago, there would be. 125 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 6: No student loan crisis today. 126 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 5: The Department of Education in Congress would be very much 127 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 5: more judicious in how much they lend out and maybe 128 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 5: even for what sort of programs. 129 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 3: Well, I think that's interesting. You bring that by the ways, 130 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 3: Allen Collin, jac president of Student Loan Justice at organ 131 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 3: normally we probably we actually are agreeing on a lot 132 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 3: of stuff here because I hear a student loan justice 133 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 3: and think, well, you know, we're just gonna get free 134 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 3: money away, make college free. That's not really what you're saying. 135 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 3: And I agree on some points there's no way these 136 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 3: young people are generally young people going to be able 137 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 3: to pay these loans back. We're seeing a seventy five 138 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 3: percent default rate that is just catastrophic. But I guess 139 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 3: when I think about bankruptcy, which you're right, it does 140 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 3: keep the lenders in check, going okay, is this a 141 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 3: good risk? But here's what's going to happen, right, And 142 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 3: it's two sides of the same coin. There's gonna be 143 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 3: arguments and going, well, now you're stifling you know, higher 144 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 3: institutions of higher learning and what people are going to 145 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 3: study and career paths and things like that, which I 146 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,679 Speaker 3: say good because you know, if the argument is that 147 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 3: if we forgive all this money or make college free, 148 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 3: it results in a better educated population, it's got to 149 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 3: be worth the cost. But it's not because what happens 150 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 3: is you get a whole bunch of students majoring and 151 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 3: I'm sorry bs that the market doesn't value and other 152 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 3: people simply just you know, showing up going out. I 153 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 3: guess I'll go to school because someone else is paying 154 00:07:58,240 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 3: for it, So if it's for free, it's for me. 155 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 3: And then it doesn't even discount all the ones that 156 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 3: go to college who fail and still have to pay 157 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 3: the loans and drop out for whatever reason. Graduates need 158 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 3: marketable skills going and we know this right now, and 159 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 3: so I think the bankruptcy thing, in a way would 160 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 3: eliminate all these fluffy programs and education in the Ivory Tower. 161 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 3: Allen would have finally have to come around and go, hey, 162 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 3: guess what, we're in a market too. Here, We're not 163 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 3: in a bubble. This is a market economy. Teach the 164 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 3: jobs and teach the skills that people need to make 165 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 3: money to service their loans, and the rest will take 166 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 3: care of itself. 167 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right. You know, there's a very good reason 168 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 5: the founders called for bankruptcy ahead of the power to 169 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 5: raise an army and declare war in the Constitution. And 170 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 5: I think this student loan behemoth is precisely the sort 171 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 5: of thing that they wanted to avoid. Yeah, and you know, 172 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 5: we're all. 173 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,439 Speaker 6: For having educated citizenry. And you know, maybe there's a value. 174 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 5: To a philosophy degree or something that maybe may not 175 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 5: be necessarily marketable, but it's got to be done in 176 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 5: the context of fiscality. 177 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 3: And well, as I've been saying, don't confuse a hobby 178 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 3: with a career. So if you want to study philosophy, 179 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 3: you can do that in your own time. You don't 180 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:10,719 Speaker 3: need to go to school for it. 181 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, it's hard to say what all what 182 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 5: all reform might happen when you know, at least the 183 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 5: accountability that comes with having to contend with bankruptcy laws 184 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 5: will compel, but certainly lower prices, smarter degrees. And I 185 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 5: might also add, you know, the colleges are now it's 186 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 5: taking an average of six. 187 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 6: Point two years to get a four year degree, and so. 188 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 5: The colleges have really got to be arranged in And 189 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 5: you know, we're looking at people like Jim Jordan. Quite frankly, 190 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,839 Speaker 5: he becomes very important in this whole discussion. He runs 191 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 5: the Judiciary Committee where our bankruptcy legislation is likely to 192 00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 5: come from, if it comes from anywhere in the House, 193 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 5: of represent is and so we're hoping very much that 194 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 5: Jim Jordan will look to people like, look to other 195 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 5: Republicans actually. 196 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 6: Like why not just called for the return. 197 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 5: Of bankruptcy rights to student loans with a caveat that 198 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 5: the colleges should be held at least somewhat financially accountable 199 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 5: absolutely for bankruptcy discharges. And we think that's exactly the 200 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 5: way go. It's a lot like Dick Durbins bill from 201 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 5: last year as twenty five ninety eight. We think Jim 202 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 5: Jordan could get that sucker passed to the House in 203 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 5: no time on a bipartisan basis, and that would that 204 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 5: would really be the first thing that needed to happen 205 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 5: if we want to see sanity, sanity. 206 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 6: And you know, fiscal prudence returned to. 207 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 3: Is I guess because the federal since we federalized student 208 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 3: loans back in the seventies. Though, and okay, I can 209 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 3: file bankruptcy now, but based on the way our government 210 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 3: spends and how much debt we're in right now, Allen, 211 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 3: do they even care? Would they just go, okay, well, 212 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 3: we're not going to really change, you know, this is 213 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 3: not going to make coll just tighten their belt I 214 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 3: mean the private market. Yeah, but we're talking about federally 215 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 3: subsidized student loans here. Do they even care? 216 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 5: Well, you know, they don't. 217 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 8: They don't. 218 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 5: The government does not act, you know, like a business 219 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 5: for example. That's true, but the Department of Education they 220 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 5: guard their nest egg, They guard their agency funding very carefully. 221 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 5: They run the Department of Education as if it were 222 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 5: a business. So you know, one would hope that they 223 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 5: would care, but that sort of remains to be seen. 224 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 3: Well, here's here's what happens is you yeah, here's a 225 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 3: interrupt a second. Here's what happens as you know though, right, 226 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 3: so we'll get this will go through rest like, Hey, 227 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 3: it makes sense. They're tight to their belts. We're not 228 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,559 Speaker 3: going to hand out money for programs that you're not 229 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 3: gonna make a lot of money at, and it's gonna 230 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 3: bring the cut. And then you're gonna hear the cries 231 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 3: from people who are lobbying their lawmakers and saying it's unfair, 232 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 3: it's racist, it's sexist, it's this, it's that, And then lawmakers, 233 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 3: of course will kowtow to that contingent and you know, 234 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 3: break it and it'll probably worse than it was before 235 00:11:58,760 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 3: they did bankruptcy. 236 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 6: Well, yeah, that remains a be seen. 237 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 3: That's the problem with it. 238 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 5: But generally you can pick a random college funding scheme 239 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 5: out of a hat at this. 240 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 6: Point and I can almost guarantee. 241 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 5: You that whatever they get will be far better than 242 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 5: what we have today. So you know, it's it's always 243 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 5: a balancing act with condres. Different spirit interests will have 244 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 5: their say, But at the end of the day, you know, 245 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 5: we can't be financially ruining eighty five percent of the 246 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 5: people who take out student loans and leaving them with 247 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 5: you know, predatory, untaable debt for the rest of their lives. 248 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 5: I mean that does not serve the country. 249 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I look at it and go, well, okay, 250 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 3: mom and dad. In the equation, they should kind of 251 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 3: know better about how much money they're borrowing because you're 252 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 3: old enough to know how that works. But if you're young, 253 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 3: and you're you know, sixteen, seventeen years old, and you're 254 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 3: applying for colleges and it's all all well and good, 255 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 3: you don't have an idea what that's like, what servicing 256 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 3: a loan is. And I think they keep kids financially 257 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 3: ignorant from the beginning for a reason, because at the 258 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 3: end of the day, it's mana from heaven for the 259 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,680 Speaker 3: federal government. They're just going to keep getting their money. 260 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 3: How when you can go after mom and dad social 261 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 3: Security because the kid doesn't have a job that's going 262 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 3: to pay anything and can't serve us a loan. I 263 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 3: think that's just speaks volumes about where we are right now. 264 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 3: And the sickening part is, I honestly, I mean outside 265 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 3: of Jim Jordan, as you said, both sides to be 266 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 3: complicit in just basically doing the dirty work for colleges 267 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 3: and universities. It's insane that someone has not called us 268 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 3: out sooner, rather than just going, yeah, we're gonna just 269 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 3: give you free money, and uh, well what about next 270 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 3: year's class? They're gonna want. And once it starts, of course, 271 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 3: once you say we're gonna give forgive loan debt each 272 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 3: twenty three, twenty four, twenty five, twenty six, twenty twenty seven, 273 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 3: every class is gonna want basically a bailout. And if 274 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 3: the idea is we forgive loans to stimulate the economy, well, 275 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 3: I don't know about you. I got a mortgage that'd 276 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 3: be great. Imagine how much money I'd spend on liquor 277 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 3: and hot tubs and strippers and coke. 278 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 5: Well, I would. 279 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 6: Actually disagree with you on not so. 280 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 5: Much what you just said, but sort of the underlying 281 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 5: premise here and that and the important point here that 282 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 5: I haven't brought up yet is the federal government, believe 283 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 5: it or not, the Department of Education, they have been 284 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 5: making a king's ransome in profit on this federal student 285 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 5: loans program, certainly since Obama federalized in twenty ten. You know, 286 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 5: in nineteen sixty five the President LBJ declared that these 287 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 5: student loans would be free of interest. Well today over 288 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 5: one hundred billion dollars a year in interest, really, and 289 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 5: it accrues to the books of the Department of Education. 290 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 5: And so the Department of Education is this is really 291 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 5: a cash cow for the people in Washington. People don't 292 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 5: quite understand how incredibly profitable this thing has been for 293 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 5: the taxpayer. 294 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 3: And out of that, I mean, think of it. There's 295 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 3: no you know, you can't discharge it, you don't put 296 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 3: a collateral up. They can garnish your wages, they can 297 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 3: go after your mom and dad social Security, they can 298 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 3: do all these horrific things that that you know in 299 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 3: the private sector, you can't do it all al and 300 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 3: all the best. Thanks again. 301 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 5: Well, it's been about. 302 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 3: I think almost exactly a year since Biden and is 303 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 3: one of the last gasps of his presidency wave the 304 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 3: magic wind would come to student loans. I haven't heard 305 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 3: a lot in last year with Trump on that one guard. 306 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 3: But the problem is still there, still exists, can be fixed, 307 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 3: but they refuse to address the issue. And it's a problem. 308 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 3: It's a big press as what college looks like is 309 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 3: being changed by AI for example. We'll get a news 310 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 3: update in and more ahead.

I have it, you know now, 327 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 9: and then I have it under control. But I have 328 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 9: very little compared to most Americans. 329 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 3: I would say, yeah, I'm more of a savory person. 330 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 3: I like the savory stuff I'll have, don't get me wrong, 331 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 3: A good dessert or something like that, or a piece 332 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 3: of candy. But I'm not I'm not a sugar feen. 333 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: Now. 334 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 3: I have a friend of mine about the same age, 335 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 3: and he has the diet of an eight year old. 336 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 3: He'll drink like three of those blue slushies a day, 337 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 3: and yeah, he's a mess. 338 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 7: Yeah. 339 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 9: I think there's a lot of people that sort of 340 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 9: fall into one of either camp right where it's you 341 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 9: have that sweet tooth and you crave it all the time, 342 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 9: or you're more of like a savory chips and cheese 343 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 9: type person. 344 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 3: He has the you know, if you go to a 345 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 3: hotel and they have these real dispenser it's got three 346 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 3: things and you turn the crank and at ceral comes out, 347 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 3: he's got one of those in front of his TV. 348 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 8: Oh. 349 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 9: I think that's definitely the sign of a sugar addict 350 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 9: in one of those devices. 351 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. 352 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 3: I was like, okay, skittles all over the place, Like 353 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 3: it's like Willy Wonka in his basement. It's it's something else. 354 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 3: Some guys have bars. He has unlimited sugar, all right, 355 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 3: And it's why is sugar so easy to I guess 356 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 3: to abuse. I don't want to see abuse. It's not 357 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 3: a fair term because everything in moderation, as you said, 358 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,360 Speaker 3: is fine. I'm glad you're not like, oh you can't 359 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 3: had sugar at all ever. I mean, sugar is it's good, 360 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 3: you just can't make it a steady part of your diet. 361 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:37,360 Speaker 7: Yeah. 362 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 9: But I think that's really the issue that a lot 363 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 9: of people are struggling with because although we want to 364 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 9: do it in moderation, most of us have a really 365 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 9: hard time doing that because it's so pervated. If you 366 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 9: think about it, you know, everywhere you go in the 367 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 9: grocery store, if you go to restaurants, most of the 368 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 9: dishes that we order when we eat out have sugar 369 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:57,159 Speaker 9: added to them. And so even if you're trying to 370 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,239 Speaker 9: cut back, and or even if you don't really have 371 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 9: a big eat tooth and you think you're not eating 372 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 9: a lot of sugar, odds are that you probably are 373 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 9: eating more than what is recommended. 374 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:07,159 Speaker 7: By the guideline. 375 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 3: What are the guidelines? I have no idea. 376 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 9: Well, you know, it's funny because for the longest time, 377 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 9: we did not have government guidelines about sugar. We had 378 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 9: guidelines about everything else in terms of vitamins and you know, 379 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 9: how many calories you should eat to have a healthy diet, 380 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 9: but we didn't have it for sugar. Now we do, 381 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 9: and it's recommended that you have no more than six 382 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 9: to eight teaspoons of sugar a day, which sounds great, 383 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 9: but the problem is the average American has twenty two 384 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 9: teaspoons or sugar a day. So yeah, we're all eating 385 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 9: weight too much of it. And you know, it's not 386 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 9: just about obesity or being overweat. There's so much research 387 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 9: out that's come out. I talk about it in my 388 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 9: new book, Sugar Lists, about how sugar can impact your 389 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 9: physical health. It can also impact your mental health too, 390 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 9: So it's a really good idea to cut back. Even 391 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 9: if you're not struggling with your body weat and. 392 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 3: I think it's important too. You go, well, wait a minute, 393 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 3: I don't eat a lot of sugary food. How can 394 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 3: I have twenty two teaspoons or tablespoons of a sugar 395 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 3: a day. Well, it's hidden. And so the formula for 396 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 3: really really good food. If you want to make food 397 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 3: taste well, you've got to have savory, you got to 398 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 3: have sweet, you got to have you got to have 399 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 3: a fat, you got to have those things in it, 400 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 3: and tart. Every good dish like wh it's a secret. Agree, 401 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 3: there's probably most people don't use enough acid in their cooking, 402 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 3: like lemon or something like that. But the big one 403 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 3: is sugar. And if you get that balance right between sweet, 404 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,439 Speaker 3: fat and salty, you're gonna This is why you can 405 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 3: sit down and get a whole sleeve of oreos and 406 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 3: not be satisfied for that reason. But sugar is a 407 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 3: big and it'shidden in you know, pasta sauces and everything 408 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 3: is sugar in it. 409 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,439 Speaker 9: It does and I think that's really, you know, the 410 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 9: tricky part. So it's really important to take a look 411 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 9: at the nutrition fact labels on the foods that you're purchasing, 412 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 9: and really, you know, look at the ingredients, you'd be surprised. 413 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 9: So many things that you wouldn't expect to see sugar 414 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 9: in you'll find that, you know, sugar's listed as one 415 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 9: of those ingredients. And again, you know, even if you're 416 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,400 Speaker 9: thinking that maybe you are consuming too much of it, 417 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 9: it's not about you know, completely cutting it out of 418 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 9: your life. And I really make a point of this 419 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 9: in my new book, because that's just not sustainable, and 420 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 9: you know that's going to set people up for failure. 421 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 9: It's really more about reducing it and doing more to 422 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 9: try to replace it with healthier alternatives so you could 423 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 9: still enjoy the foods and have them, but just without 424 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 9: all that added sugar. 425 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, big holidays roll along or occasions whatever, and you 426 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 3: have some sugar, or somebody brings some cookies and you know, 427 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 3: I'll have one. You have a couple, and you know, 428 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 3: you feel great, and then all of a sudden, like 429 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 3: minutes left for me, minutes later, maybe like an hour later. 430 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 3: I want to kill myself. What is that? 431 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 9: Well, you know what the problem with sugar is is 432 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 9: that it affects our brain in so many strange ways. 433 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 9: It can affect the brain in a way that leads 434 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 9: us to be addicted. It can release dopamat and these 435 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 9: other neuro transmitters, and that's what leads people to crave 436 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 9: it and want more and more of it. But it 437 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,640 Speaker 9: also does so many things to mess with our mind. 438 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 9: It causes us to feel guilty after we eat it. 439 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 9: It causes us to have these, you know, rapid spikes 440 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 9: in our blood sugar levels that then lead us to 441 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 9: then have these crash is in our blood sugar levels 442 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 9: that can impact our mood. So when people start to 443 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 9: reduce the sugar in their diet, they really start to 444 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 9: get in touch with those feelings and see that, Wow, 445 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 9: you know, this stuff is really making me feel strange 446 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:13,719 Speaker 9: and act funny when I eat a lot of it. 447 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 9: So if you stay away from it, then you really 448 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 9: can get a better control on what it's doing to 449 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 9: your brain and your body. 450 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, what does it do to your Is it more 451 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 3: of a physical thing or a mental thing or is 452 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 3: it both? 453 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 9: Well, it's both. I mean, you know, when you consume sugar, 454 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 9: it's affecting your blood sugar levels, which then in turn 455 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 9: affects your neurotransmitter levels, and so it's affecting your brain. 456 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 9: And I think you know, we have this physical change 457 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 9: that occurs in response to that, right we react to it. 458 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 9: Our brain tells us, you know, how to react and 459 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 9: how to feel. But there is also this psychological piece 460 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 9: of it too, and I think that goes along with 461 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 9: the fact that you know, it is so pervasive in 462 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 9: our society and it's sort of this forbidden thing in 463 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 9: many ways. 464 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 4: You know, we know. 465 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 9: Sugar's bad for us, you know, we shouldn't have too 466 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 9: much of it, and then when we do indulge, we 467 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 9: get that psychologic guilt. And I think this is what 468 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 9: happens with a lot of people who were dieting right 469 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 9: around this time of year. Everybody's you know, trying to 470 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 9: clean up their diet and maybe lose a couple pounds, 471 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 9: like you said in the beginning, Yeah, and you know 472 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,239 Speaker 9: you get that guilt if you gave in and you know, 473 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 9: ate that giant slap cake, then you feel bad about it. 474 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,360 Speaker 9: You feel like you let yourself down. So that's important 475 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 9: to avoid and I talk about that in my new 476 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,640 Speaker 9: book Sugarless, about how you know, you want to change 477 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,719 Speaker 9: your relationship with food. You don't want to, you know, 478 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 9: have this unhealthy relationship with the things that we're eating. 479 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 9: It's got to be a healthy dynamic, all. 480 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 3: Right, Nicole Vina is here. Sugar List is the book, 481 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 3: and it's the big problem for people, and that is 482 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 3: kicking the sugar hat. But if you want to lose weight, 483 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 3: sugar is definitely going to add some hidden calories and 484 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 3: it does a lot. One of the issues that came 485 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 3: up and this is totally wow, it's kind of related. 486 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,199 Speaker 3: Now I won't know how to get in this is 487 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 3: we just legalized not long ago for recreational use. Ohio 488 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 3: did recreational marijuana, and the opponents of it to always 489 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 3: talk about how it's a gateway drug. You smoke some weed, 490 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 3: it's gonna next thing you'd be shooting heroin. You get blasts, 491 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 3: you get a cocaine nipple, bumps, everything right, And I 492 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 3: never I think that's a bunch of bunk. And I 493 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,400 Speaker 3: basically my counter to this was, well, if that's the case, 494 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 3: if that's the gateway, is the real gateway drug caffeine 495 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,880 Speaker 3: or in this case, sugar is sugar gateway drugged other things? 496 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 9: Absolutely, I think sugar is a gate I think it's 497 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 9: the original gateway drug. 498 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 3: So right, Halloween comes along the holidays. Whatever you pack 499 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 3: your kid full of candy Easter and they lose their 500 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 3: mind and their mounds off the walls. They're like, wow, 501 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 3: I feel great after each sugar. That's that's a drug. 502 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 9: Yeah, And you know, we've actually conducted research studies in 503 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 9: my laboratory looking at that, looking at the relationship between 504 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,239 Speaker 9: sugar and then behavior later on and proclivity to use 505 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 9: drugs and alcohol. And for sure, if you have experience 506 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 9: with sugar, you're more likely to use drugs for alcohol. 507 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 9: So yeah, I think that's that's really the bigger problem. 508 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 9: It's you know, it's not about recreational marijuana. I think 509 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 9: it's about getting to the root of the problem, which 510 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 9: is sugar. And it starts, you know, in kids when 511 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 9: they're three, four or five years old. 512 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 3: It's crazy you have a a few years later, you're 513 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 3: doing lines off the near end of a hooker. It's 514 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 3: it's it's a town, it's a slippery slope, nicole, it 515 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 3: sure is. 516 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 4: It really is, all. 517 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 3: Right, So sugar, there's just sugar addiction and drug dependency. 518 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 3: And there certainly is a link there too, because you 519 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 3: get that. It's it's that feeling that you wind up getting, 520 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 3: go wow, the sugar high. This is this is really cool, 521 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 3: and then later on you're looking for that maybe in 522 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 3: different ways. So it makes sense. But again, it's it's moderation, 523 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 3: it's tolerance, it's a bunch of other things too. And 524 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 3: we also have a culture in our society too, this 525 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 3: diet culture. You know, there's a gym I drive by, 526 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,360 Speaker 3: uh near my house, it's the gym, and then right 527 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 3: next door is like a cookie place, So it's you 528 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,400 Speaker 3: can't even get past the gym without being tempted by 529 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 3: by cookies. And I think we have a thing where, hey, 530 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 3: if I work out, I can treat myself to a 531 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 3: cookie or sweets later in the day. And the problem 532 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 3: is you just eat too many of them. 533 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 9: Yeah, what is that? That's happening where I live in 534 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 9: New Jersey too. I feel like that there must be 535 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 9: something going on with like the planning boards of you 536 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 9: have to put a cookie joint next to the gym, 537 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 9: because I've seen neither myself. Yeah, I think you know, 538 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 9: you're so right that it's sort of part of this 539 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 9: culture of like rewarding ourselves. If we do something good 540 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 9: like workout, right, then we're supposed to reward ourselves with 541 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 9: a cookie. And I think that happens on multiple levels 542 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 9: throughout the day for a lot of people when you 543 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 9: know they do a good job at work, or let's 544 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 9: go out and you know, celebrate by getting ice cream, 545 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 9: if you've got a good grade on your test. You know, 546 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 9: it just happens throughout the day in multiple ways where 547 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 9: people reward themselves with food. And that's fine, But the 548 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 9: problem is, you know, if you're rewarding every little thing 549 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 9: that you do right with food, then that's where people 550 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 9: start to get into problems with you know, health issues, diabetes. 551 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 7: Being over weed. 552 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and I in our household, we had to 553 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 3: fight that. I mean, if me and my two brothers 554 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 3: would have stayed at home and lived at home, God 555 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 3: would probably be four thousand pounds by now. My mom 556 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 3: and you know, hey, you're having a bad day, have 557 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 3: a meatball. You're having a good day. Here, have two meatballs. 558 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 3: Gonna be one of those one of those Italian mom situations. 559 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 3: What about withdrawal, We mentioned the connection between sugar is 560 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 3: a gateway drug and a full dependency on sugar later 561 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 3: in life. And like anything that means there's withdrawal symptoms. 562 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 3: We know what it is for other hard street drugs 563 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 3: which are much more serious and sugar certainly, but are 564 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 3: there withdraw symptoms and how do you combat that? 565 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 7: Yeah? 566 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 9: Absolutely, And so I think this is one of the 567 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 9: main reasons why people end up going back on sugar 568 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 9: is because of the withdrawal. We see this this time 569 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 9: of year where people say, Okay, I'm going to cut 570 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 9: back on sugar, and then all of a sudden, they 571 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 9: get irritable, and they get lethargic and cranky and crabby, 572 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 9: and you know, maybe they're tired a lot and a 573 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 9: lot of times people will misattribute that and say, oh, 574 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 9: it must be that I have low blood sugar, so 575 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 9: I better eat more sugar so that I can make 576 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 9: sure I don't pass out. Well, the reality is it's withdrawal. 577 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 9: That's what sugar withdrawal looks like. It's you know, these 578 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 9: feelings that are similar to what would happen if you 579 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 9: try to quit smoking cigarettes. That's really been the one 580 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 9: that seems to parallel at most. And again, you know, 581 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 9: it's not going to kill you. You're not going to 582 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 9: you know, die from the withdrawal, but it's uncomfortable, and 583 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 9: you know, a lot of times it's enough for people 584 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 9: to then say you know what, forget it. I'm just 585 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 9: going to have some sugar so I feel better. But 586 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 9: then that starts to pull vicious cycle all over again. 587 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,919 Speaker 9: Of you know, Okay, now I'm overeating sugar, and then 588 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 9: I try to quick and I wink to withdrawal, and 589 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 9: then I crave it, and so it's this non stop 590 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 9: cycle that emerges. 591 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 3: Where are you on artificial sweeteners, That's a good question. 592 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 9: So I look at them as kind of like the 593 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:34,640 Speaker 9: methadone to heroin, right. I mean, they're better than sugar, 594 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 9: but you don't want to stay on it for the 595 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 9: rest of your life. And so what I usually recommend 596 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 9: is that if you are really struggling to get the 597 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 9: added sugar out of your diet, if you need to 598 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 9: rely on some of these artificial sweeteners or these alternative 599 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 9: sweeteners as a crutch to kind of bridge you away 600 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 9: from it, then that's fine. But the ultimate goal should 601 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,159 Speaker 9: really be to reduce the dependence on the sweeteners in 602 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 9: our diet. You know, we don't need to add sugar 603 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 9: to everything we have. Coffee is a perfect example. And 604 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 9: I've been talking about this a lot because I think 605 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 9: about it more and more when I go to a 606 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 9: coffee shop anymore, it's more like going into a sugar shop. 607 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 9: I mean there's more sugar in the store that. 608 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:11,639 Speaker 7: There is coffee. 609 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 9: So again, we have to, I think, really just focus 610 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 9: on reducing the dependence on sweetness and think about, you know, 611 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 9: why do we have to have sugar in all these 612 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,399 Speaker 9: different things that maybe doesn't really belong there in the 613 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:22,880 Speaker 9: first place. 614 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I got a little cream in my coffee. That's 615 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 3: about it, just to you know, get that little balance 616 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 3: going on. But black is fine too. 617 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 4: Yeah. 618 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 3: You know, you go to a place and it's kind 619 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 3: of frightening actually that some of these drinks. I don't 620 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 3: want to vilify any coffee chain, Starbucks, but you go 621 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 3: in there and one of their drinks is the same 622 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 3: number of calories as a big Mac. That's a problem. 623 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 9: Oh yeah, and they're desserts. I mean, I don't even 624 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 9: know how they can be considered coffees anymore. I mean 625 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 9: they're like literally desserts. I think I could probably find 626 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 9: fewer calories at the ice cream store than I could 627 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 9: from you know, many of these coffee chains. So you 628 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 9: do need to be mindful of that. And the marketing 629 00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 9: is a big part of it. I mean they're marketed 630 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 9: as being you know, coffee drinks and you're getting your 631 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 9: energy and getting it through that three pm slump, But 632 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 9: the reality is, you know you're going to hit a 633 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 9: huge crash when that sugar wears off, and it's going 634 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 9: to be compounded by you know the fact that your 635 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 9: craffein's wearing off as well. 636 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 3: Right, get caffeine and the sugar at the same time. 637 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 3: You put two or three of those down to some 638 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 3: people do a day, and you're talking a full day 639 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 3: amount of calories just in your liquids on top of 640 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 3: everything else. And you wonder why, you know, we're a 641 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 3: little heavy. So uh, people concerned about maybe dropping a 642 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 3: few LB's and getting right as we as. We have 643 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 3: those cycles every year and this would be one of 644 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 3: those cycles. A good idea would be looking at how 645 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 3: much sugar you're getting in your diet. Sugarless is the 646 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 3: name of the book. It's Nicole A. 647 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 4: Vine. 648 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 3: I know you have some strategies in there too for 649 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 3: trying to wing yourself off the sugar. 650 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 9: Right, Yeah, absolutely, I have a whole seven step plan 651 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 9: that talks about how you can figure out where the 652 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 9: sugar is in your diet. Because a lot of people 653 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 9: just don't know right, kind of hidden in many places. 654 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 9: And then also dealing with you know, the cravings. That's 655 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 9: really a big thing. And I think that's a hard 656 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 9: problem for a lot of people because you know, everywhere 657 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 9: we got ads for it all the time. You're you know, 658 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 9: being offered it basically everywhere you go. And so how 659 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 9: do you cope with that? And you know, really just 660 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 9: reevaluating your relationship with food and really just basically retooling 661 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 9: yourself so that you can eat things alike, but just 662 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 9: not have them have so much control over you. 663 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think it's the thing. We all have 664 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 3: our food triggers. I guess I'm a savory person, lesson 665 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 3: more than a sweet one. You know, put up pizza 666 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 3: in front of me, I'll kill it. But yeah, you know, 667 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 3: an entire cake or I may have a cupcake, but 668 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 3: I'm going to eat twelve of them. But everyone has 669 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 3: their own triggers. But if here's a sugar Sugar list 670 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 3: is the name of the book, and it's Nicole Avina. 671 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 3: She's a PhD but also a world renowned neuroscientist. So 672 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 3: great having on the show this morning.

And with one stroke with pen, the 700 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 3: governor overrode that and the band means these beverages that 701 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 3: millions and enjoy can no longer be sold in locations 702 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 3: like convenience stores, bars, breweries or general stores. And these 703 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 3: restrictions will take effect in mid March. I cannot believe 704 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 3: that it's come to this. Ohio State Senator Steve Hopman 705 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 3: from Just the Tipsity joining the show this morning on 706 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 3: seven hundred w W Steve, I wish I wish you 707 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 3: a good morning. It doesn't feel like a good morning 708 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 3: based on what feels like a good part of your 709 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 3: life's work here. I mean, you've spent so much time 710 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 3: on Senate Bill fifty six, being the author of it, 711 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 3: and this is like the fifteenth time we've had this 712 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 3: conversation about stuff getting changed. 713 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 10: Well, you're right now, We're done with it. There's a 714 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 10: couple of House members that have already introduced some other 715 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 10: things that they'd like to see change. But overall it 716 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 10: was a good bill. But unfortunately the governor saw differently 717 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 10: on this one subject. 718 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 3: Did he explain his reasoning why and please just don't 719 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 3: tell me because it's about the children. 720 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 10: Yes, So whenever he line item vetos, he has a 721 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 10: you know, the reason for doing it, And basically he 722 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 10: said that there would be confusion because you know in 723 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 10: the bill, you know, we got rid of gummies, different 724 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 10: things like that, especially for children. So we got rid 725 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 10: of that, but then we carved out the beverages until 726 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 10: November because we're following the federal law. And he said 727 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 10: there would be too much confusion with the beverages being 728 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 10: outlawed before the you know, after the other one. So 729 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 10: we're just going to outlaw everything all at once in 730 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 10: ninety days. 731 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 3: Okay, Well, if it's the federal legislation is the root 732 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 3: cause of these problems, and giving this Congress just banned 733 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 3: certain THT products when you know they reopened the government, 734 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 3: why did we need Why would the governor have to 735 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 3: act more aggressively than federal rock requires rather than just 736 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 3: simply mirroring federal standards. 737 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 10: Well, I mean in the bill we did because we 738 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 10: in Ohio wanted to get rid of the gummies and 739 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,839 Speaker 10: stuff that underage kids were getting. And we were doing 740 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:13,399 Speaker 10: that in ninety days. I'm not sure that there would 741 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 10: be confusion among the consumers, at least for the you know, 742 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 10: over the next year. It would give people to finish 743 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 10: their you know, whatever allotment that they currently have. But 744 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 10: also in the bill, it would allow them to continue 745 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 10: to process. We were at five milligrams, so that was 746 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 10: you know, your six percent, like a six percent beer, 747 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,920 Speaker 10: but would allow was going to allow Ryan Geist and 748 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 10: fifty West to process at ten or twenty so that 749 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 10: they could sell out a state, make money, keep people 750 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 10: employed that has gone away in ninety days. 751 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 5: Also, does the. 752 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 3: Governor realize how many millions of Ohioans not only enjoy this, 753 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 3: but how many thousands of people of employees? Does he 754 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,399 Speaker 3: understand the business dynamic here? 755 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 10: I you know, that would have to be a question 756 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 10: for him. My understanding in the state of Ohio this 757 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,760 Speaker 10: year it is a seventy five million dollar business, mostly 758 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 10: in the craft industries. You know, recently Cores and Anheuser 759 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 10: Busch is starting to get into the industry. But basically 760 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,959 Speaker 10: it's a something that you find in the craft. 761 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, and as I talked to purveyors of craft beer, 762 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 3: the taste for craft beer has ebbed. I mean, we 763 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 3: hit a peak. Everything has a business cyclist, you know, 764 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 3: Steve Hoffman, and now we're starting to be like the 765 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 3: post you know, select beer kind of thing. A lot 766 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 3: of people still enjoy it. I don't think it's going 767 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 3: to go away, but it's pretty clear that people are 768 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 3: switching to other beverages. Seltzer's are big, and certainly THC 769 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 3: beverages are big too. So my concern is you don't 770 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,240 Speaker 3: give people that option. Do they go back to drinking 771 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 3: craft beer? Probably not, They'll find something else. I would 772 00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 3: imagine that these breweries aren't selling, doesn't that mean jobs 773 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 3: and some of these breweries closing up? 774 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 10: I would think so, you know, you know, the statistics 775 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 10: I see is that people under thirty drink more of 776 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 10: the THHC drinks than they do than they do beer. 777 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 10: And you know, seventy five million dollar industry in the 778 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,279 Speaker 10: state of Ohio, that seems to be a good number 779 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 10: of jobs that ultimately would be lost. And do they 780 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 10: go to beer or something else or do they just 781 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 10: they want the THCHC effect and do they just start 782 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 10: smoking it? 783 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 4: Yeah? 784 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 3: Right, and kind of cut the middle man out entirely. 785 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 3: And you know what, I cringe every time. And you know, 786 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 3: Mike the Wine is a Republican, and I hear about 787 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,399 Speaker 3: how Republicans are pro business, pro small business, pro growth, 788 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 3: proll is and they do things like this that completely 789 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 3: lead me scratching my head. Is Mike the Wine turning 790 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,839 Speaker 3: his back on what used to be conservative values? There 791 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 3: has always been this way? 792 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 10: Well, I mean, I again, you need to talk to 793 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 10: him about it, but I think he is more concerned 794 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 10: about safety of people and health of people, and I 795 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:13,720 Speaker 10: believe that's in conflict of of what other people are 796 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:15,879 Speaker 10: thinking that these things do for him. 797 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 3: Mike the Wine is a lawyer. He's not a physician. You, 798 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 3: Steve Hoffman, are a physician. What's your physician's take on 799 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,400 Speaker 3: this stuff? Are people killing themselves when they sip THHD 800 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 3: and fuse beverages? 801 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 10: You know, I think, like any other intoxicating substances, it's 802 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 10: within reason. So if you're within reason and you're not 803 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 10: going out and driving after taking large quantities of them, No, 804 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 10: I don't think we know the long term health effects 805 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,320 Speaker 10: of these things. But you know, the early science says, 806 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,760 Speaker 10: you know, it's not that bad. You know, maybe beer 807 00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 10: and whiskey in the long term might be even worse 808 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 10: for you, but you know, no real big negative effects 809 00:37:59,280 --> 00:37:59,879 Speaker 10: currently known. 810 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, that we currently know. 811 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 7: Now. 812 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 3: The future is always you know, always changes, science always improves, 813 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 3: and we listen to that science. But at the same time, 814 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 3: I have a definitive right by God to put whatever 815 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 3: it is on why my body. Plenty of people abuse substances, food, 816 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 3: whatever it might be. I mean, you name me something 817 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:18,759 Speaker 3: in the world and I'll find somebody who abuses it. 818 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,720 Speaker 3: And you see that all the time in your practice, Steve, 819 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:22,839 Speaker 3: and have to deal with those kinds of things for sure, 820 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 3: And you see the effects of people not taking care 821 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 3: of their bodies and neglecting their health and focusing on 822 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 3: too many vices. And when we say that declined. But 823 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 3: again we all know that today. We know that cigarettes 824 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,839 Speaker 3: are carcinogen, We know that smoking is not good for you. 825 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,240 Speaker 3: We know about popcorn lung now with vaping and things 826 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 3: like that. But again, you could do things in moderation, 827 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 3: and it's fine to me. It just seems to not 828 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 3: only be left to the adults to make a decision. 829 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 3: Not kids, of course, but adults. And we know what 830 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 3: we put in our bodies. I mean, it's not I 831 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 3: don't think an exaggeration and think, okay, should there be 832 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,880 Speaker 3: a I don't know the side. Remember when more liberal 833 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,879 Speaker 3: states we're talking about banning the size of sodas, we're 834 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 3: going to talk about regulating the fast food industry and 835 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,399 Speaker 3: only being allowed to get McDonald's once a month as 836 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 3: I mean, how far does the government go. I hear 837 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,760 Speaker 3: these things, and you know, damnit, I'm a grown person. 838 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 3: I can make an informed decision is what I want 839 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 3: to consume and put in my own body. It should 840 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 3: not be up to the governor with the stroke of 841 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 3: a pen to undermine that. Because I think, in your 842 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 3: opinion on this, Steve, does this at some level go 843 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,280 Speaker 3: against the will of the voters. Let's not forget almost 844 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 3: six and ten people supported recreational marijuana and Ohio we 845 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,399 Speaker 3: generated over seven hundred million in the first year. At 846 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 3: what point does the legislative modification of a voter approved 847 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,280 Speaker 3: citizen and it should have crossed the line from reasonable 848 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 3: regulation and define the clear will of what people want. 849 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 10: Well, I don't disagree with that a lot of that. 850 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 10: But the beverages had nothing to do with the ballot 851 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 10: initiative because we're talking hemp and the ballot initiative was 852 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 10: strictly concerning marijuana. Yeah so, but you should, within reason, 853 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 10: have the uh the right to do, you know. In 854 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 10: the same for however you feel about tradum. You know, 855 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 10: his pharmacy board last week is going to outlaw that, 856 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,880 Speaker 10: and many people feel that is of benefit for their 857 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 10: own health. 858 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:18,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's say. I mean, I don't go the weave 859 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 3: on that, but I think it's an excellent point. Stamfuffman 860 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 3: is is creative. A lot of people know what that is. 861 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,719 Speaker 3: I mean I I personally don't use it. I don't 862 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 3: really know anyone that does. It's been around for what's 863 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 3: the substance what's a concern with cretum? 864 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,280 Speaker 10: Creative is something kind of like a t from East 865 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 10: Asia that that many that that people use and they 866 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 10: feel that it helps with anxiety and sleep and a 867 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:46,359 Speaker 10: lot of things that that that the hamp people do. 868 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,919 Speaker 10: But in that end, there there's a substance. The intoxicating 869 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 10: substance is known as seven oh H and it is 870 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 10: at a very very low level, so it's really not 871 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 10: thought to be intoxicating. But just like camp they manufacturers 872 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 10: will concentrate seven O H and put a large amount 873 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 10: in there and then makes it dangerous, makes it makes 874 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:14,359 Speaker 10: it intoxicating, and and so that's uh, you know, we're 875 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:19,879 Speaker 10: you know, the pharmacy board is gonna band all of it. 876 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,759 Speaker 3: So but at the same time, we live in a 877 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 3: country where you could get you know, an intoxicating marshroom 878 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 3: tea or so some of those lines where you know, 879 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 3: a tribal ancestors been using that for for eons, right 880 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:33,960 Speaker 3: and seemingly I don't know if there's all effects to 881 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 3: that or not, but for some people they feel that 882 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 3: it's therapeutic. 883 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 10: I agree. I just you know, it's a scheduled uh 884 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 10: it's not scheduled one, but he wants to make the 885 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 10: scheduled one drugs so we can get rid of it. 886 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 10: But there's no real scientific research, you know, a high 887 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 10: state and you see and other highly academic places aren't 888 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 10: really doing the research or haven't done the research to 889 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:01,759 Speaker 10: tell us this is good for you, and this is 890 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 10: what it's it's you know, this is why it's mad. 891 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 3: The cat's catch twenty two. It's a schedule one, so 892 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 3: they can't research it. And then they people who made 893 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 3: us schedule one say well there's not research. Yeah, because 894 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,759 Speaker 3: you made a schedule one. We can't do research on 895 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:16,080 Speaker 3: something that's that's that controlled. It's simple. 896 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:21,839 Speaker 10: Yeah. You know, how how about the great news from 897 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:23,759 Speaker 10: Donald Trump last week on marijuana? 898 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,400 Speaker 3: Really good? This is an odd game, isn't it. I 899 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 3: mean you mentioned, okay, yeah, the Sistanist initiative and sixty 900 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:34,439 Speaker 3: percent of people wanting recreacial THC marijuana. You got, Well, 901 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 3: that doesn't this this THHC, the CBD, THHG derivative liquids 902 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,040 Speaker 3: and the alcohol well not alcohols but the beverages. It's 903 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,720 Speaker 3: not really what the vote. But I get that argument 904 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 3: the same time, it's I think the spirit of it 905 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 3: is going, hey, you know what if I can smoke THC? 906 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 3: What is it that far reach to think that that 907 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 3: would include CBD derived beverages like this? And now that 908 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 3: Trump is doing what he's doing, I think that's even 909 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:01,360 Speaker 3: more against what what Mike Line thanks with this vetout. 910 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 10: No, I don't, I don't disagree. You know, when when 911 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:07,399 Speaker 10: Trump said that you know, I'm going to speed up 912 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 10: the process of making the marijuana THHC a Scheduled three 913 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:17,920 Speaker 10: drug and Schedule one. It will be great for the 914 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 10: banking industry. We can't you know, can't bank. It's all 915 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 10: cash business in the dispensaries and in everything. 916 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 7: Uh. 917 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 10: And it'll provide the ability to do scientific research. And 918 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 10: I am I'm hoping that, uh, the academic institutes in 919 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 10: the state of Ohio will jump on it and be 920 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 10: able to go out and get federal funding to say 921 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 10: marijuana is good for you or it's bad for you, 922 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 10: and let's settle this for you know, what type and 923 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:43,879 Speaker 10: how and what conditions. 924 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:46,720 Speaker 3: Steve another, by the way, that's the Ohio State Senator 925 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,000 Speaker 3: Steve Huffman on the show on seven hundred w OLW. 926 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,280 Speaker 3: I'm sure you heard Mike the line shockingly line item 927 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 3: vetoed a provision in our state CBD law. You know, 928 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 3: the the CBD slash THHD infused beverages that a lot 929 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,720 Speaker 3: of people enjoy. That's spurned an entire industry that's rapidly 930 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 3: growing as big as a craft bret beer industry. And 931 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:07,320 Speaker 3: it was I think in a few years of clips 932 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 3: that because so many people want this stuff. Mke the 933 00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 3: wine ban that in Ohio. So all these companies that 934 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 3: leaned in and invested the small brewers, the rhyin geis 935 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 3: the fifty west of the world and others are no 936 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:19,560 Speaker 3: longer in ninety days going to be able to sell 937 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 3: and produce that stuff. And so six thousand plus people 938 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 3: and so six thousand small businesses alone, by the way, businesses, 939 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:30,040 Speaker 3: not people, but six thousand businesses are no longer going 940 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:31,799 Speaker 3: to be able to compete in the sphere, despite the 941 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 3: massive demand by millions of adult Ohioans that want this stuff. 942 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:38,800 Speaker 3: The other element here too, we had talked about, I 943 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 3: think last time around Steve about protections for housing, employment, 944 00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 3: organ donation, stuff like that. Is that been removed by 945 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 3: the governors. That's still in there. 946 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:54,000 Speaker 10: It's still in there. Basically, those things are things that 947 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 10: mere previous laws. I don't believe there was anything really 948 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 10: new in there. I mean, if you're a smoker, you 949 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 10: can be banned from an organ transplant because of scientific 950 00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 10: studies that show that you and so that's why it 951 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,319 Speaker 10: was the you know, the organ band is still has 952 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 10: been included in there. 953 00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 3: Is there a connection medically, Steve, between the organ donation 954 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,320 Speaker 3: and marijuana. Why would you be excluded. 955 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 10: From that, if I remember right, the law doesn't say 956 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 10: that you are excluded. It says if there's a scientific basis, 957 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 10: you can be excluded if if they feel hey, look 958 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,680 Speaker 10: if if if science shows that if you smoke marijuana 959 00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 10: and you get a liver transplant plant, your likelihood of 960 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 10: rejection as higher. If the science is there, then we 961 00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 10: should should stick by it. But we shouldn't just totally 962 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 10: get rid of that not based on science. 963 00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, if it's science says that you have 964 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,839 Speaker 3: a higher rate of not not being able to get 965 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:03,360 Speaker 3: the organ, so it's kind of a waste of that 966 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,719 Speaker 3: pressure tree. So I kind of get that element. One 967 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 3: of the thing I saw too was allowing police to 968 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,920 Speaker 3: establish probable cause during traffic stops because someone is a 969 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 3: known user of marijuana. Is that still part of this. 970 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:19,279 Speaker 10: I can't remember, but again I think that was you know, 971 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 10: restated from previously that you know, when we initially did 972 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 10: the medical marijuana law back in twenty sixteen, most of 973 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,360 Speaker 10: the drug dogs in the state were became obsolete because 974 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 10: when they smelled marijuana, they would have hit and they 975 00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 10: you couldn't tell if it was a legal substance or 976 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:42,239 Speaker 10: an illegal substance or where they derived it from. So 977 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 10: that caused a lot of a lot of trouble. But 978 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 10: you know they if they still have probable cause not 979 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:53,120 Speaker 10: because you're smoking, because they feel you're impaired, they would 980 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 10: be able to do a field sobriety test. 981 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of contradictions here. It just leads one scratching. 982 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 3: There is there any remedy here for manufacturers? And I'll 983 00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:03,160 Speaker 3: try to get somebody on maybe from Ryan Guister fifty 984 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 3: West to talk about this later on. Is this fight 985 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 3: completely over to this? In the overturned. 986 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:13,760 Speaker 10: Well, in the original bill, the House and the Senate 987 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 10: and had an agreement that we would, you know, the 988 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 10: Feds are going to get rid of it in a 989 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:21,920 Speaker 10: year in November twenty six if they change things, that 990 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 10: we would look at that and see because we didn't 991 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 10: have time to put taxes on as regulations in the 992 00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 10: whole scheme of things, so we kept the plan was 993 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 10: to keep it till November, so we can re look 994 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 10: at it from that. But from that aspect and see 995 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 10: if Governor DeWine has a different view of it, we 996 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:47,359 Speaker 10: could look at a veto override it would take two 997 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,880 Speaker 10: thirds of each each body so there are some things 998 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 10: we could reintroduce this, you know, when there's a new governor. 999 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:59,239 Speaker 3: Well that won't be long, that won't be much either year, 1000 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 3: but still ramping down production, ramping it back up.

Ready for the what do you 1042 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:46,040 Speaker 3: got gone for the holidays? 1043 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,439 Speaker 12: We're having family over on Christmas and then a couple 1044 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:51,520 Speaker 12: of days later we're taking off for a week going 1045 00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:52,760 Speaker 12: someplace warm and beachy. 1046 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 7: It's going to be lovely. 1047 00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 3: Oh nice, good time to get away, all right. So 1048 00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,960 Speaker 3: this one weird trick for your mental health would be what. 1049 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,360 Speaker 12: Well, this is something that I've been doing for a 1050 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:05,880 Speaker 12: few years. I didn't invent it. Lots of people do it, 1051 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,320 Speaker 12: and it's called sort of a year end life review. 1052 00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 12: And you know, businesses do year end reviews. You if 1053 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,120 Speaker 12: you're an employee of a business, you very often get 1054 00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,880 Speaker 12: a performance review annually. But we don't often take a 1055 00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 12: look at our own lives in a holistic way and 1056 00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:24,719 Speaker 12: ask ourselves some questions and reflect on what went well 1057 00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:26,960 Speaker 12: and what didn't go as well over the course of 1058 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 12: the year so that we can set ourselves up for 1059 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 12: success going into the following year. And I think I've 1060 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 12: been doing this about four or five years now, and 1061 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:36,320 Speaker 12: I love it. I love the whole process. 1062 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 11: So I thought we could talk about. 1063 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,440 Speaker 12: It as a way to close out twenty five and 1064 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 12: set ourselves up for success. 1065 00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:45,879 Speaker 3: It's like a personal annual self review sort of thing. 1066 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:48,839 Speaker 3: You got to tact grow. Most of us, though, tend 1067 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 3: to yeah, people like, hey, you know something bad, I 1068 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 3: don't want to talk about it, ignore it. But there 1069 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:54,880 Speaker 3: are those of us that tend to just focus on 1070 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:56,960 Speaker 3: the future because you know, I can't change what happened. 1071 00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:58,839 Speaker 3: I can learn from it and move forward. I don't 1072 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 3: really want to look back. Is that flawed thinking? 1073 00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:04,719 Speaker 12: Well, you can learn from it and move forward, but 1074 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,080 Speaker 12: only if you take the time to reflect on not 1075 00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:10,840 Speaker 12: only what happened, but what it meant and why it happened, 1076 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 12: and how maybe to prevent what you didn't like, and 1077 00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:18,799 Speaker 12: to optimize for and maximize what you did like. So 1078 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,239 Speaker 12: if business has just closed out their books at the 1079 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 12: end of the year and started fresh the following year 1080 00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:27,840 Speaker 12: without learning lessons positive or negative from what happened in 1081 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 12: the prior year, they wouldn't have the level of success 1082 00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:33,799 Speaker 12: that they do. If they do a comprehensive review, what 1083 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:35,839 Speaker 12: were our hits, what were our this is what went well, 1084 00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 12: what didn't and why, and move forward from that. So 1085 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,319 Speaker 12: it's not really dwelling in the past. It's learning from 1086 00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 12: your year to set yourself up for an even better 1087 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:45,279 Speaker 12: year to come. 1088 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:48,000 Speaker 3: All right, So seven point maintenance check. You're like your car, 1089 00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:48,520 Speaker 3: what do you got? 1090 00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 11: Yeah? 1091 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,880 Speaker 12: So the first one is and I don't didn't do 1092 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,200 Speaker 12: this when this article that I we are going to 1093 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,279 Speaker 12: list in the show notes is one that I really liked. 1094 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 12: And the first question that the guy asked is what 1095 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 12: did I change my mind about this year? What did 1096 00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:06,240 Speaker 12: I think I knew, or what did I think was true? 1097 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:08,320 Speaker 12: Or what did I think was right. 1098 00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:10,200 Speaker 11: That I learned wasn't. 1099 00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 12: Because one of the things that we know about mental 1100 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 12: well being, both cognitive and emotional into old age is 1101 00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 12: that cognitive flexibility is really important. Being able to think 1102 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 12: something is true and then being able to find evidence 1103 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 12: that indicates it's not, being able to consider that evidence 1104 00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:32,360 Speaker 12: and maybe change your mind. This mental and cognitive flexibility 1105 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:36,600 Speaker 12: is really important for emotional well being but also cognitive 1106 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:40,080 Speaker 12: health as you enter later into life, and so being 1107 00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:44,640 Speaker 12: able to take a look at what you believed and 1108 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,400 Speaker 12: what you might have changed your mind about and how 1109 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,399 Speaker 12: cognitively flexible you were over the course of the year, 1110 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 12: and then also what those changes meant. So you may 1111 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:57,040 Speaker 12: have thought A was true, you realize at that point 1112 00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:58,920 Speaker 12: A is not true for you. I mean, it may 1113 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:01,160 Speaker 12: be factually true, but it doesn't work for you anymore. 1114 00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:03,680 Speaker 12: So you change your mind about it, And what does 1115 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:05,919 Speaker 12: that do for you during the rest of the year, 1116 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:07,439 Speaker 12: How does that impact your life? 1117 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:08,160 Speaker 11: Going forward. 1118 00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 12: So being able to take a look at that is 1119 00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:10,720 Speaker 12: really important. 1120 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 3: Okay, we're in the post truth world, though, and many 1121 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 3: more people would rather be right than finding the truth. 1122 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:21,000 Speaker 12: Well, in that case, then this question may not appeal 1123 00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 12: to them, but I. 1124 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:22,600 Speaker 11: Look at it. 1125 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 12: I look at it at it as sort of you know, 1126 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:28,640 Speaker 12: software updates for your brain. You know, you update your phones, 1127 00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:31,840 Speaker 12: you update your computer. Things that used to work didn't 1128 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,080 Speaker 12: work anymore, lands that you tried. So, for example, I 1129 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:38,319 Speaker 12: tried to scheduling tactic with some of my clients over 1130 00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 12: the last couple of months of the year. 1131 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 11: Wasn't a huge hit. Not going to do it anymore. 1132 00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:44,160 Speaker 12: Thought it would be. Tried it, it wasn't. I'm not 1133 00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 12: going to do it anymore. It doesn't have to. 1134 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 11: Be actual facts. 1135 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:49,719 Speaker 12: It can just be I tried this, it didn't work, 1136 00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:52,040 Speaker 12: I changed my mind. I did something else. But how 1137 00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 12: cognitively flexible are you? 1138 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 3: Okay? Good? 1139 00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:54,960 Speaker 5: Next up? 1140 00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 11: What gave you energy? 1141 00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 12: What we energy you? 1142 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,280 Speaker 11: Whether it's physical energy from. 1143 00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:06,600 Speaker 12: Working out, sleeping more, and eating better, whether it's energy 1144 00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 12: from being with different kinds of people, whether you started 1145 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:12,759 Speaker 12: a new hobby or a new project. 1146 00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:16,359 Speaker 11: That really really got you juiced. What gave you energy. 1147 00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 12: This year and take a look not only at the 1148 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:21,160 Speaker 12: thing itself, but sort of a larger theme and see 1149 00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:25,440 Speaker 12: how you can incorporate more energy promoting things into your 1150 00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 12: life going forward. 1151 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 11: So, if you did a. 1152 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:29,799 Speaker 12: Home reno project for the first time and you found 1153 00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:32,480 Speaker 12: you really liked it, are there more things like that 1154 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 12: that you can do to create positive, generative, life affirming 1155 00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:42,840 Speaker 12: energy in your world? And what really got you turned 1156 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,520 Speaker 12: on and got you juiced this year is another really 1157 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:46,360 Speaker 12: good question. 1158 00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:48,080 Speaker 3: To ask, gotcha all right that? No, that makes a 1159 00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:50,520 Speaker 3: lot of sense and find that and then maximize that 1160 00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:53,000 Speaker 3: for the next year, obviously would be the suggestion there. 1161 00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:56,239 Speaker 12: Yes, maximize that for the next year. If being with 1162 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 12: certain types of people really work, do more of that? 1163 00:54:59,480 --> 00:54:59,600 Speaker 10: Right? 1164 00:54:59,680 --> 00:54:59,879 Speaker 8: Good? 1165 00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:02,759 Speaker 12: And then and then the flip of that is what 1166 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:06,759 Speaker 12: drained your energy? What were the vampires? What sucked your 1167 00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:10,479 Speaker 12: energy this year? Was it people that you spent time 1168 00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 12: with certain people? Was it activities or projects that you 1169 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,839 Speaker 12: were involved in. Was it staying up too late if 1170 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:19,200 Speaker 12: we're talking about physical well being, was it staying up 1171 00:55:19,239 --> 00:55:23,080 Speaker 12: too late? What really sucked your energy this year? And 1172 00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:25,560 Speaker 12: if you can take a look again at the overall 1173 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 12: themes of that, then you can try to minimize those 1174 00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:32,520 Speaker 12: and optimize for the things that at least or neutral, 1175 00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 12: if not create energy in your life. 1176 00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:37,799 Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, it makes sense. You got a look at 1177 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:42,040 Speaker 3: the it's yin and yang understandably, Julie Hatter's here the 1178 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:44,319 Speaker 3: term boat anchor. We know a boat anchor is, but 1179 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:46,360 Speaker 3: how does it apply to what we're talking about here. 1180 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 12: Well, for all of us, we have some things in 1181 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 12: our life that kind of hold us back. They don't 1182 00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:54,080 Speaker 12: necessarily prevent us from getting where we want to go, 1183 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,759 Speaker 12: but they make it harder. So, you know, we have 1184 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,800 Speaker 12: maybe an unsupportive spouse if we're trying to get healthier, 1185 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:02,400 Speaker 12: or we have a boss who doesn't really seem to 1186 00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:06,000 Speaker 12: put our ideas forward. We have to work really hard 1187 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:09,640 Speaker 12: to get anywhere with that person. Or we have some 1188 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:13,760 Speaker 12: beliefs that seem to hold us back from doing our best, 1189 00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:17,719 Speaker 12: like women can't be successful, or I shouldn't make too 1190 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:20,560 Speaker 12: much money or whatever. 1191 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:21,840 Speaker 11: That can kind of hold us back. 1192 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:25,920 Speaker 12: And so just taking a look at what those things 1193 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,800 Speaker 12: might be that aren't necessarily preventing you from getting somewhere, 1194 00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:31,520 Speaker 12: but are making it harder. 1195 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:32,880 Speaker 11: For you to get where you want to go. You 1196 00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:34,719 Speaker 11: have to work twice as hard to get half as far. 1197 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,240 Speaker 11: Those are boat anchors, and just kind. 1198 00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:40,799 Speaker 12: Of understanding in your own life what those are and 1199 00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:46,640 Speaker 12: then minimizing, eliminating if you can, or figuring out how 1200 00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 12: to work around them so that you can maximize your 1201 00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:53,560 Speaker 12: success and your potential and your happiness in the new 1202 00:56:53,640 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 12: year can be really impactful. 1203 00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:56,560 Speaker 11: We tend to look at the. 1204 00:56:56,520 --> 00:56:59,200 Speaker 12: Things that stop us, but we don't necessarily tend to 1205 00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:01,000 Speaker 12: look at the things that flow us down or make 1206 00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:02,360 Speaker 12: things harder than they ought to be. 1207 00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:04,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, because you're dragging that anchor, is what you're doing. 1208 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 3: But for many people, isn't that going to be your 1209 00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:09,359 Speaker 3: career or your job? And what does that mean? 1210 00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:12,680 Speaker 12: Well, it might be for sure. And one of the 1211 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,000 Speaker 12: things that this life review can let you do is 1212 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:17,080 Speaker 12: if you are in a career a job that you 1213 00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:19,760 Speaker 12: really don't like and that really is an energy suck 1214 00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 12: for you, then you can take a look at maximizing 1215 00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:26,680 Speaker 12: the positives in other areas of your life to sort 1216 00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:31,280 Speaker 12: of balance out the negative of the work. I realize 1217 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,920 Speaker 12: not everybody loves their work like I do, and so 1218 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:38,040 Speaker 12: being able to maximize the positives the projects, the hobbies, 1219 00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:42,960 Speaker 12: the people. The activities, the habits that really build your 1220 00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 12: energy and build the positivity in your life can work 1221 00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:49,880 Speaker 12: to offset some of the negativity around maybe your job, 1222 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 12: maybe a family situation that you can't get out of, 1223 00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 12: maybe a health situation that you can't get out of. 1224 00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:58,360 Speaker 12: I mean, boat anchors can certainly be poor health. That 1225 00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:01,360 Speaker 12: doesn't prevent you something, but it just makes it harder. 1226 00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 12: You're in pain or movement is hard. So maximizing the 1227 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 12: positive can help offset some of the negative or minimize 1228 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 12: the impact of some of the negatives. 1229 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:13,920 Speaker 3: It's mental Health Money and the Scott's Loan Show on 1230 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 3: seven hundred WLW. She's July how to share local licensed 1231 00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:20,320 Speaker 3: mental health therapist and the Personal Annual Review, which very 1232 00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:24,160 Speaker 3: few people do, and it certainly is it has great appeal. 1233 00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 3: I think you know you want to be a better 1234 00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:27,560 Speaker 3: version of yourself in twenty twenty six and you were 1235 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:29,840 Speaker 3: twenty five. And there are seven things you should do 1236 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:33,160 Speaker 3: if you do your own self analysis mental health analysis, 1237 00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:35,960 Speaker 3: one being what did I change my mind on this year? 1238 00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:39,479 Speaker 3: The second one is what created energy? Then what took 1239 00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:42,800 Speaker 3: my energy away? Number four is what are the boat 1240 00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:45,000 Speaker 3: anchors in my life? And that brings us to number five. 1241 00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 12: Yeah, what could I not do because I was afraid? 1242 00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:50,560 Speaker 12: What did I want to do but I didn't do? 1243 00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:52,000 Speaker 12: Because I was afraid? 1244 00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:53,920 Speaker 11: For me? That would be skiing. 1245 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 12: Skiing terrifies me. I'd really like to I'd really like 1246 00:58:57,440 --> 00:59:00,080 Speaker 12: to learn, but I get so freaked out about that. 1247 00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:01,440 Speaker 12: There's no way I think I'll. 1248 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:03,640 Speaker 3: Ever be able to scary about skiing. 1249 00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:09,520 Speaker 12: I can't stop, and stopping is a really important part. 1250 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:15,680 Speaker 3: You can trust me, you can stop. It may not 1251 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:18,720 Speaker 3: be pretty, but you can stop yourself. 1252 00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:21,440 Speaker 12: It may be a freaking yard sale when I stop, 1253 00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:23,280 Speaker 12: and I may take others down with me. 1254 00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:24,400 Speaker 11: It could be really ugly. 1255 00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:26,160 Speaker 3: I'm gonna take you ski and that you know what 1256 00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:28,760 Speaker 3: I'm gonna let's do that. We should make a play day. 1257 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:30,600 Speaker 3: I'm gonna take you ski date. 1258 00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:31,040 Speaker 7: All right. 1259 00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 3: You've never skied before. 1260 00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:35,120 Speaker 11: I have, and I'm really bad. 1261 00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 7: At it, all right. 1262 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:36,480 Speaker 3: I haven't scanned. 1263 00:59:36,360 --> 00:59:37,960 Speaker 12: You many times and I'm really bad. 1264 00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:39,760 Speaker 3: Okay, all right, we may have to do that and 1265 00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:42,160 Speaker 3: break your fear of that. So I'll go out to 1266 00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:44,680 Speaker 3: perfect North, all right. So what did I not do? 1267 00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:46,800 Speaker 3: Because of fear? And a lot of people have move 1268 00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:48,960 Speaker 3: There's some people that are extremely brave, they'll do anything. 1269 00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 3: But man, you don't fear. It gets in your head 1270 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 3: and that's a huge problem. 1271 00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:58,520 Speaker 12: Yeah it is, and you know, you can take a 1272 00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:00,280 Speaker 12: look at it. I didn't do this thing becau as I 1273 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:02,720 Speaker 12: was afraid. What would have been the upsides if I 1274 01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:04,720 Speaker 12: had done it? What would have been the downsides? 1275 01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:05,520 Speaker 11: Now that it's. 1276 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:07,680 Speaker 12: Past and I'm looking at it in the rear view mirror, 1277 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:10,480 Speaker 12: I can maybe take a more clear eyed look at 1278 01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 12: it and recognize where the fear came from. And fear 1279 01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:17,160 Speaker 12: comes from being new at something, from not knowing how 1280 01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:20,480 Speaker 12: to do it, from being inexperienced. Very often, it doesn't 1281 01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:24,680 Speaker 12: come from being incompetent. It usually comes from being inexperienced 1282 01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:27,120 Speaker 12: and new, and the only way to get experience is 1283 01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 12: to do things. 1284 01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:29,920 Speaker 11: So there's a really. 1285 01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:31,800 Speaker 12: Great book out there called Feel the Fear and Do 1286 01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:33,960 Speaker 12: It Anyway. I can't remember who wrote it, but it's 1287 01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:36,400 Speaker 12: a classic. It's been around for a long time, and 1288 01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:39,360 Speaker 12: it talks about how fear can actually motivate and energize 1289 01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:40,280 Speaker 12: you to do things if. 1290 01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:41,280 Speaker 11: You harness it correctly. 1291 01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:43,680 Speaker 12: But I think taking a look at our year and saying, 1292 01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:46,280 Speaker 12: what did I not do because I was afraid can 1293 01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:48,960 Speaker 12: set us up to be braver going into the new 1294 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:55,000 Speaker 12: year and to really more clearly analyze the risks and benefits. 1295 01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:58,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and that's true. The fear thing is true, 1296 01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:03,640 Speaker 3: especially the more of a competitor or someone who's a perfectionist, 1297 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:05,520 Speaker 3: because that fear gets in your head and it'll prevent 1298 01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:07,240 Speaker 3: you from doing things in life that you enjoy. And 1299 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:08,200 Speaker 3: that's a whole different matter. 1300 01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:10,240 Speaker 11: Yeah, it really can. 1301 01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,479 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. Greatest hits and worst missus number six. 1302 01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 11: Yeah, So I think it's important to take a look. 1303 01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:20,480 Speaker 12: At what went well, really well, and what didn't go 1304 01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 12: so well and optimized for what did go well. We 1305 01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:26,680 Speaker 12: learn as much from analyzing what works as we do 1306 01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:30,200 Speaker 12: from analyzing what doesn't work, because sometimes we think it 1307 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:32,160 Speaker 12: worked and we don't need to pay attention to it, 1308 01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:35,720 Speaker 12: but oftentimes the reasons why it worked, the ingredients for 1309 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:39,160 Speaker 12: the hit are replicable if we understand what they are, 1310 01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:42,080 Speaker 12: so we tend to take apart the missus the things 1311 01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:45,680 Speaker 12: that didn't work and really analyze those deeply. It's also 1312 01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:48,400 Speaker 12: important to analyze what did go well and understand why, 1313 01:01:48,440 --> 01:01:50,600 Speaker 12: so you can do more of what works, which is 1314 01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:55,440 Speaker 12: a great, great tactic, and it's important to do a balance, 1315 01:01:55,520 --> 01:01:57,480 Speaker 12: not just look at the things that didn't go well, 1316 01:01:57,600 --> 01:02:00,440 Speaker 12: because the pessimist tends to do that. Optimists to look 1317 01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:03,120 Speaker 12: at what worked, but take a balanced view what worked 1318 01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:05,919 Speaker 12: and what didn't, and understand a little bit about why 1319 01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:09,000 Speaker 12: that is, so that going forward you can optimize for 1320 01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 12: the positives and minimize the negatives. 1321 01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:13,640 Speaker 3: All right, So Albert Einstein famous you said, when you 1322 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 3: stop learning, you start dying, and that would be number seven. 1323 01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:17,520 Speaker 3: What did you learn this year? 1324 01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:21,320 Speaker 12: Yeah? What did you learn? What new thing did you learn? 1325 01:02:21,600 --> 01:02:24,320 Speaker 12: It might be something you changed your mind about, as 1326 01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:26,840 Speaker 12: in question one, it might be a whole new thing 1327 01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 12: you learned. Did you learn to play piano? Did you 1328 01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:31,080 Speaker 12: learn that you like spicy food when you didn't think 1329 01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:33,160 Speaker 12: you did. Did you learn how to ski? Maybe that's 1330 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 12: me next year with you. But what did you learn 1331 01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:38,760 Speaker 12: this year? What new thing did you try? What were 1332 01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:41,440 Speaker 12: you willing to be a beginner at? What did you 1333 01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:44,360 Speaker 12: allow life to surprise you with? What did you learn 1334 01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:48,040 Speaker 12: this year? Because we really are creatures that are meant 1335 01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:50,680 Speaker 12: to grow and learn until the day we die, and 1336 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:54,440 Speaker 12: oftentimes we get stuck in our bubbles of competence. 1337 01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:55,439 Speaker 11: We know how to do this. 1338 01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:57,560 Speaker 12: We know we like this, we know we like to 1339 01:02:57,600 --> 01:02:59,720 Speaker 12: go there, and we keep doing the same thing over 1340 01:02:59,760 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 12: and over. So did you expand your horizons in any way? 1341 01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:05,880 Speaker 12: Did you broaden your world and make it bigger and richer? 1342 01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:06,439 Speaker 11: In any way? 1343 01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:09,240 Speaker 12: Did you learn something new? And what was that and 1344 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:12,120 Speaker 12: what impacts that have on you? And how can you 1345 01:03:12,160 --> 01:03:14,400 Speaker 12: maybe do more of that going into the future. 1346 01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:18,440 Speaker 3: Okay, makes sense. Julie Hatter Share a licensed mental health therapist. 1347 01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:21,120 Speaker 3: Your own personal annual review in your head? What did 1348 01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 3: you change your mind on this year? What created energy? 1349 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 3: What drained your energy? What are the boat anchors in 1350 01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:28,520 Speaker 3: your life? The things slowing you down? What did you 1351 01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 3: do because of fear or did not do because of fear? 1352 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:33,880 Speaker 3: Greatest hits worth, missus, and what you learned this year. 1353 01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 3: I'll kind of center around the same theme. But and 1354 01:03:37,040 --> 01:03:39,120 Speaker 3: if you do this, you have a greater direction of 1355 01:03:39,160 --> 01:03:41,240 Speaker 3: what twenty twenty six is going to look for you. 1356 01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 3: I appreciate you so much and thanks for joining the 1357 01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:46,200 Speaker 3: show every Monday all this year, and I look forward 1358 01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:49,560 Speaker 3: to meeting up with you and maybe skiing in twenty 1359 01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 3: twenty sixth. 1360 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:53,080 Speaker 11: Joly, it sounds great.

Be well, my friend, let's do 1362 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,480 Speaker 3: a news update and boor to follow here it's a 1363 01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:01,880 Speaker 3: Scott's Loan show on the home of the best Bengals coverage, 1364 01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 3: Big Dub Yesterday, Big Dub's Baby seven hundred WW Cincinnati. 1365 01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:06,240 Speaker 3: Do you want to. 1366 01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:07,880 Speaker 1: Be an Americans? 1367 01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:11,440 Speaker 3: Got flowing seven hundred W A guest the leads the 1368 01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:18,080 Speaker 3: nation in spam and scam messaging. This guy, Ohio, congratulations 1369 01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 3: and study just came out and said, we get more 1370 01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:25,640 Speaker 3: junk mail, more phishing emails, more fake texts or tolls 1371 01:04:25,680 --> 01:04:29,160 Speaker 3: we never went through and have to pay. It's incredible. 1372 01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:30,520 Speaker 3: I don't know why that is. We're gonna find out. 1373 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,840 Speaker 3: His name is Brian Cross. Brian lives in the realm 1374 01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:36,400 Speaker 3: of SMS messaging and he is one of the guys 1375 01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:39,720 Speaker 3: who follows this stuff on a very very close basis. 1376 01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:43,280 Speaker 3: And I guess, Brian, I've always said this, first of all, welcome. Secondly, 1377 01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:45,960 Speaker 3: if we didn't respond to the spam and the scams, 1378 01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:48,720 Speaker 3: they wouldn't send us as much stuff. It's our fault 1379 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,080 Speaker 3: because clearly there are people who love junk mail. 1380 01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:55,880 Speaker 4: You know, That's exactly it. There's there's always the complaint 1381 01:04:55,920 --> 01:04:59,360 Speaker 4: of junk mail in the mailbox, and you know, the 1382 01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 4: response always the junk maan would go away if it 1383 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:06,440 Speaker 4: didn't work. These marketers have budgets and they've got ROI 1384 01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:10,400 Speaker 4: numbers to hit, and if a tactic isn't working, they're 1385 01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:13,600 Speaker 4: the first to stop it. So these things keep coming 1386 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:15,880 Speaker 4: because they make money. 1387 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:19,360 Speaker 3: It's an interesting study though, too, because I'm trying to 1388 01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:21,600 Speaker 3: think ten thousand ads a day. Do you think that 1389 01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:23,800 Speaker 3: is six to ten thousand ads a day is with 1390 01:05:23,880 --> 01:05:27,080 Speaker 3: the typical person faces And you're like, I don't really 1391 01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:29,480 Speaker 3: see that many. Well, I guess if you included billboards 1392 01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:32,520 Speaker 3: and radio and television typical broadcast, but then factor in 1393 01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:37,120 Speaker 3: you know, email, product placement, text messaging, things like that, 1394 01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:39,840 Speaker 3: maybe you're getting close to that mark. But that seems 1395 01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 3: softly high. 1396 01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:44,760 Speaker 4: Ten thousand seems very high. I've you know, I've heard 1397 01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:47,880 Speaker 4: that number in terms of pieces of information things that 1398 01:05:47,960 --> 01:05:52,840 Speaker 4: we see, but an actual advert something like that, that 1399 01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:55,160 Speaker 4: does seem a bit high. 1400 01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:57,040 Speaker 3: Well, there's no doubt about it. You know, most people 1401 01:05:57,120 --> 01:05:58,840 Speaker 3: don't like this. I guess it would be that one 1402 01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:02,520 Speaker 3: third of consumers in the service, if sixty six percent 1403 01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:04,920 Speaker 3: surveyed said they want fewer marketing messages. That means a 1404 01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 3: third are fine with them out there getting or don't 1405 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:11,280 Speaker 3: think they're getting enough, which is driving this whole problem. 1406 01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:14,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd be curious to break that one down. I've 1407 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:17,440 Speaker 4: none of those people are saying I need more. 1408 01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:21,880 Speaker 3: But well, somebody is responding or clicking on this. I 1409 01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:24,240 Speaker 3: mean that's the thing with social anyway. If you click, 1410 01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:27,960 Speaker 3: even accidentally on something, that algorithm is going to force 1411 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:30,480 Speaker 3: more of that type of product to your device. And 1412 01:06:30,520 --> 01:06:32,280 Speaker 3: not only that, it's also going to show them, hey, 1413 01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:34,600 Speaker 3: we've got to click through here, So that encourages more 1414 01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:36,720 Speaker 3: of the bad behavior it does. 1415 01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:41,120 Speaker 4: It does, and marketers have this thing. There's many different 1416 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,320 Speaker 4: ways called three sixty cults around, sound caught, whatever, but 1417 01:06:44,760 --> 01:06:48,040 Speaker 4: they're basically starting from a point where they say, hey, 1418 01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:51,640 Speaker 4: if you know, there's there's information that says the average 1419 01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:56,280 Speaker 4: consumer makes the buying decision after being touched at least 1420 01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:58,600 Speaker 4: seven to twelve times, and there I think with gen 1421 01:06:58,760 --> 01:07:01,720 Speaker 4: why now I think that jumps up to like twenty, 1422 01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:03,920 Speaker 4: So it means I got to talk to you, you 1423 01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:06,920 Speaker 4: have to see something from me at least seven or 1424 01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:10,680 Speaker 4: eight times before you even start thinking of buying my products. 1425 01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:14,160 Speaker 4: So the three sixty the surround sound. You know, you think, okay, 1426 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:17,200 Speaker 4: I need to surround the consumer. I need to touch 1427 01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:21,080 Speaker 4: you with its you know, TV radio, out of home Internet, 1428 01:07:21,160 --> 01:07:24,000 Speaker 4: where do you go like text message there. That's that's 1429 01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:27,400 Speaker 4: why we're seeing all of this because you know it's 1430 01:07:27,440 --> 01:07:30,960 Speaker 4: sort of I guess exasperates it, right, It's it's okay, 1431 01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:34,200 Speaker 4: if Jen why is twenty hits? You know this is 1432 01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:36,440 Speaker 4: gen Z going to be thirty five hits. So if 1433 01:07:36,880 --> 01:07:39,560 Speaker 4: the science so that have to touch you that many times, 1434 01:07:40,360 --> 01:07:42,680 Speaker 4: that's probably going to increase the amount of advertising you 1435 01:07:42,720 --> 01:07:45,080 Speaker 4: see from every brand that is out there. 1436 01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:50,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, because in order to I guess overwhelm your senses 1437 01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:51,800 Speaker 3: to put that to the top of your feed, so 1438 01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:53,880 Speaker 3: to speak, you've got to hit people more with your 1439 01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:55,480 Speaker 3: message in order to get through it. 1440 01:07:56,600 --> 01:08:01,040 Speaker 4: You do. Now, that's that's one theory, right. So you 1441 01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:03,320 Speaker 4: know there's there's there's lots to talk to you know, 1442 01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:07,080 Speaker 4: disruption and differentiation and things like that. You know, I mean, 1443 01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:09,920 Speaker 4: every everybody, every marketing school as a slide where you 1444 01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:13,400 Speaker 4: see like, you know, all these advertising you know, usually 1445 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,560 Speaker 4: like in Times Square or something like that, but I 1446 01:08:15,560 --> 01:08:19,360 Speaker 4: mean you see billboard over billboard over billboard over billboard 1447 01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:21,360 Speaker 4: and things like that, and you're taught, Okay, you have 1448 01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:26,760 Speaker 4: to differentiate from this. Well, everyone's differentiating with quantity. But 1449 01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:30,280 Speaker 4: one of the things that kind of has been going away. 1450 01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:33,120 Speaker 4: You think I would say quality, right, so you can 1451 01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:38,320 Speaker 4: combat quantity. You do quality well, generally quality is a 1452 01:08:38,360 --> 01:08:42,320 Speaker 4: subjective term, but basically you know some sort of creativity, 1453 01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:44,879 Speaker 4: some sort of risker reward. One of the other problems 1454 01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:49,200 Speaker 4: that we have in marketing is not just the number, 1455 01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:53,000 Speaker 4: the sheer number of it, but everyone's doing the same thing. 1456 01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:56,040 Speaker 4: They all blend together. The reason why it takes eighteen hits, 1457 01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:58,679 Speaker 4: twenty hits whatever to find somebody is because they all 1458 01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:01,720 Speaker 4: look the same. Everybody is afraid of losing their job. 1459 01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:04,600 Speaker 4: CMO have this what I think it's sounded like an 1460 01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:08,479 Speaker 4: eighteen month average tenure at their company. So everybody's following 1461 01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:12,040 Speaker 4: the data trends. Everybody's following, you know, the best practices. 1462 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:15,200 Speaker 4: Everybody's playing it safe. Well, the thing is is if 1463 01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:17,400 Speaker 4: you go down to the base core of marketing, it 1464 01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:20,080 Speaker 4: is to differentiate. So if you look like your competitor 1465 01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:22,639 Speaker 4: and everyone's doing the same thing and doing what data 1466 01:09:22,680 --> 01:09:25,640 Speaker 4: tells you to do, or gosh. Now, whatever the aipot 1467 01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:29,200 Speaker 4: tells you to do, you look the same. You're not differentiating. 1468 01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:31,920 Speaker 4: Quite frankly, you're not doing your job. And I think 1469 01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:35,200 Speaker 4: that that's why the majority of all this marketing that 1470 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:38,880 Speaker 4: you're seeing is useless, because it's terrible. It's not the 1471 01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:39,360 Speaker 4: right stuff. 1472 01:09:39,400 --> 01:09:41,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's retally interesting. I mean, you know, having some 1473 01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:44,479 Speaker 3: experience in this to Brian and not certainly your level, 1474 01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:47,880 Speaker 3: but you know you watch I don't know, streaming or 1475 01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:50,960 Speaker 3: a regular broadcast television, let's say, because you know I 1476 01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:53,479 Speaker 3: get the the visual. Two is you know every car 1477 01:09:53,560 --> 01:09:55,640 Speaker 3: ad looks the same. And I always joke about it, 1478 01:09:55,720 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 3: is I just listen. I just need this suv or 1479 01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:01,360 Speaker 3: this truck to get me through the potholes in Cincinnati. 1480 01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:04,519 Speaker 3: I'm not driving up a mountain. I'm not towing the 1481 01:10:04,600 --> 01:10:06,800 Speaker 3: Queen Mary, I'm not trying to pull I don't know, 1482 01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:09,320 Speaker 3: some sort of it looks like a giant steel cover 1483 01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:12,719 Speaker 3: over the top of a nuclear missile silo or something, 1484 01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:15,200 Speaker 3: all right, And no one is driving their truck like that. 1485 01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:18,160 Speaker 3: And you know there's a new one the rendering the 1486 01:10:18,160 --> 01:10:20,479 Speaker 3: super Bowl, the Jeep one where there's a charging station 1487 01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:23,920 Speaker 3: on top of a Mountain. Yeah, no one's doing that. 1488 01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:27,559 Speaker 3: So but that's to your point, right, is that somebody 1489 01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:29,320 Speaker 3: will come up with that idea and everyone will rush 1490 01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:31,960 Speaker 3: to copy. We've seen I think the diversity thing in 1491 01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:35,720 Speaker 3: TV and also broadcast too, right, is if you look 1492 01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:40,400 Speaker 3: at your typical ad now, they're really I think I 1493 01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:42,439 Speaker 3: think a lot of these says are more diverse than 1494 01:10:42,479 --> 01:10:45,080 Speaker 3: what the that's reflective of the general population. I know 1495 01:10:45,160 --> 01:10:47,880 Speaker 3: someone may take that in a Dilbert kind of wrong way, 1496 01:10:47,920 --> 01:10:50,000 Speaker 3: but that's what I'm saying is you just have this 1497 01:10:50,120 --> 01:10:52,280 Speaker 3: rush to imitate that going Okay, well we need a 1498 01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:53,960 Speaker 3: lot more diversity, or we need a lot more of 1499 01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:56,680 Speaker 3: these the same thing over and over and over, and 1500 01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:58,360 Speaker 3: you just beat the you just beat it to death. 1501 01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:03,719 Speaker 4: We're taught about authenticity, and we're taught about you know, hey, 1502 01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:06,639 Speaker 4: if if you really want to consumers to pay attention 1503 01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:09,960 Speaker 4: to advertising, it needs to provide value. And and a 1504 01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:11,559 Speaker 4: lot of people scratch their head and they're like, how 1505 01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:14,960 Speaker 4: does it. How does the advertise that provide value? And sure, 1506 01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:16,960 Speaker 4: you can do things like hey, here's a you know, 1507 01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:20,400 Speaker 4: here's a recipe for my you know, liquor brand or 1508 01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:23,679 Speaker 4: whatever that provides value, but you know what what struck 1509 01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:25,760 Speaker 4: me is is when you were talking about driving the 1510 01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:29,599 Speaker 4: potholes of Cincinnati, and I was thinking about you know, 1511 01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 4: if you think about a pizza commercial, right, every pizza 1512 01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 4: commercial is a slice of pizza being pulled away from 1513 01:11:36,280 --> 01:11:42,160 Speaker 4: the main pie with this long the cheese pull. So 1514 01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:44,439 Speaker 4: that that's what all these marketers are rushing to. But 1515 01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:46,679 Speaker 4: there was a key study and a few years ago 1516 01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:51,439 Speaker 4: where Dominoes basically went and and and and put these 1517 01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:54,280 Speaker 4: trucks out on the street. You know, obviously branded them 1518 01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:56,960 Speaker 4: Domino and it was Balos and they were going through 1519 01:11:57,080 --> 01:12:00,360 Speaker 4: and they were filling in the potholes of people's and 1520 01:12:00,360 --> 01:12:02,479 Speaker 4: people were like, what the heck is going on here? 1521 01:12:02,680 --> 01:12:04,639 Speaker 4: Then they had a cute little tie in about making 1522 01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:07,000 Speaker 4: it safer for the pizza if you live at you 1523 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:10,479 Speaker 4: faster or whatnot. But they were filling potholes that the 1524 01:12:10,640 --> 01:12:14,160 Speaker 4: city wasn't. So you talk about providing value and breaking 1525 01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:16,160 Speaker 4: through clutter and having a bunch of people go, man, 1526 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,559 Speaker 4: you know when you see Dominoes fixing that potle you 1527 01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:21,320 Speaker 4: hit every night coming over from work, you you go, 1528 01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:24,160 Speaker 4: oh that's different, and you remember it, well, it's. 1529 01:12:24,040 --> 01:12:26,960 Speaker 3: A new one. So speaking of Dominoes is the one 1530 01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:29,759 Speaker 3: that advertises that they're going to not an all electric, 1531 01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:31,840 Speaker 3: but they're converting a lot of their cars to electric now, 1532 01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:33,640 Speaker 3: and I'm not quite sure that trends. I get what 1533 01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:35,439 Speaker 3: they're doing, and that's trying to appeal to a younger, 1534 01:12:36,320 --> 01:12:39,640 Speaker 3: environmentally conscious consumer, but I don't know if that's the 1535 01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:40,120 Speaker 3: right play. 1536 01:12:40,160 --> 01:12:40,280 Speaker 4: You know. 1537 01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:41,960 Speaker 3: What I'm saying is like, Okay, well, I just want 1538 01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:44,320 Speaker 3: my pizza to get their hot and fresh. You know, 1539 01:12:44,680 --> 01:12:47,479 Speaker 3: I'm assuming that some drivers are electric and some aren't. 1540 01:12:47,520 --> 01:12:49,360 Speaker 3: But well, why is this why is this part of 1541 01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:50,479 Speaker 3: a national marketing campign? 1542 01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:54,840 Speaker 4: Yeah exactly. So, yeah, no, the you're trying to hear 1543 01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:56,960 Speaker 4: all the things, so that one obviously would be, hey, 1544 01:12:57,040 --> 01:13:01,519 Speaker 4: let's show that we're you know, conscious mean corporation destroying 1545 01:13:01,520 --> 01:13:01,840 Speaker 4: the plan. 1546 01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:02,439 Speaker 1: Right. 1547 01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:05,120 Speaker 3: So Brian crossing the show. He's a marketing expert with 1548 01:13:05,240 --> 01:13:07,960 Speaker 3: Elasticity his name of his agency, and we're talking about 1549 01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:10,519 Speaker 3: a new study coming out two thirds of consumers want 1550 01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:13,840 Speaker 3: fewer marketing messages. Well know, duh, we're just we're inundated 1551 01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:16,800 Speaker 3: all the time, and it's working because there's a percentage 1552 01:13:16,840 --> 01:13:20,760 Speaker 3: that that will click and go through and actually use 1553 01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:23,040 Speaker 3: the product or service, and that'll drive more of this 1554 01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:25,200 Speaker 3: stuff too. And you know the one I thought would 1555 01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:27,599 Speaker 3: die by now, and I just thought this morning, the 1556 01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:31,280 Speaker 3: free newspaper. I live in suburbia, proud suburbanite, where once 1557 01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:34,040 Speaker 3: a week someone will drive through and throw a I 1558 01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:36,800 Speaker 3: don't know, some newspaper thin It's just like a big 1559 01:13:36,840 --> 01:13:39,519 Speaker 3: ad section in my driveway and a bag plastic bag, 1560 01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:41,639 Speaker 3: which I then promptly pick up and throw on my recycling. 1561 01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:44,439 Speaker 3: And I do this exercise every week. I'm surprised that's 1562 01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:45,360 Speaker 3: still around. 1563 01:13:46,240 --> 01:13:48,800 Speaker 4: You know. It's it's the exact same thing as the 1564 01:13:48,840 --> 01:13:51,400 Speaker 4: direct mail. There is a lot, you know. One of 1565 01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:53,200 Speaker 4: the things that we do when we bring you know, 1566 01:13:53,920 --> 01:13:57,960 Speaker 4: you know, new teammates on, you know, the younger employees 1567 01:13:58,040 --> 01:13:59,720 Speaker 4: right out of college and whatnot, we take them and 1568 01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:04,600 Speaker 4: sit them in focus groups. And what's interesting is is 1569 01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:08,080 Speaker 4: they go through school and and even you know, early 1570 01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:11,120 Speaker 4: two three, four years in the industry, they come out 1571 01:14:11,479 --> 01:14:13,840 Speaker 4: in this bubble thinking everybody does what they do, that's 1572 01:14:13,920 --> 01:14:16,439 Speaker 4: that the entire country is like them. And they stick 1573 01:14:16,479 --> 01:14:20,840 Speaker 4: them in in a focus group and they just scratch 1574 01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:23,120 Speaker 4: their head. They're like what, and we're like, yeah, these 1575 01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:25,600 Speaker 4: are the people you're marketing to this is this is 1576 01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:27,800 Speaker 4: what you need to think of. Like not everybody went 1577 01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:32,439 Speaker 4: to designed school and thinks exactly like, so no for 1578 01:14:32,439 --> 01:14:34,639 Speaker 4: for everyone. And I do the exact same thing, right, 1579 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:36,559 Speaker 4: I take it, I lean over, I pick it up, 1580 01:14:36,600 --> 01:14:39,280 Speaker 4: I put it right into that trash can. But again, 1581 01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:42,840 Speaker 4: it's the same thing these newspapers. You know, it takes 1582 01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:46,720 Speaker 4: money for them to you know, write it, print it, 1583 01:14:47,160 --> 01:14:49,600 Speaker 4: produce it, stick it in the wrappers, stick it on 1584 01:14:49,720 --> 01:14:51,880 Speaker 4: a van, have that van drive around at four a m. 1585 01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:54,120 Speaker 4: Throw it around. That all takes money. And I mean 1586 01:14:54,120 --> 01:14:56,800 Speaker 4: they're not doing that just to burn money. They're doing 1587 01:14:56,800 --> 01:15:01,400 Speaker 4: it because the advertising and the things that paper made 1588 01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:04,080 Speaker 4: for all of that to happen. So there are enough 1589 01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:06,599 Speaker 4: people that don't throw it away, that do pick it up, 1590 01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:09,240 Speaker 4: that love it, and they're like, I want the local news. 1591 01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:10,760 Speaker 4: This is way better than what I get on the 1592 01:15:10,840 --> 01:15:12,599 Speaker 4: national CNN, Like I need to know. 1593 01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:16,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a bad of ads, a bag of ads. 1594 01:15:16,360 --> 01:15:18,360 Speaker 3: It's not even like a paper, Yeah, it's just ads. 1595 01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:20,800 Speaker 3: I'm like, well, now I'm going to kick it out 1596 01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:22,960 Speaker 3: of the plastic wrap, and somebody's looking, and of course 1597 01:15:22,960 --> 01:15:25,840 Speaker 3: the ones in your mailbox, and I've got a I 1598 01:15:25,840 --> 01:15:29,160 Speaker 3: think it's a gutter or windows or something. Every week 1599 01:15:29,200 --> 01:15:31,080 Speaker 3: they send me something, I'm like, wow, that is an 1600 01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:33,479 Speaker 3: incredible a lout of money in markup that you have 1601 01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:35,160 Speaker 3: to add to the cost of your product in order 1602 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:38,080 Speaker 3: to send me these unwanted messages. And it's a lot 1603 01:15:38,080 --> 01:15:40,679 Speaker 3: easier to just bombard people with the email. And that's 1604 01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:43,360 Speaker 3: the new frontier, right Brian. And maybe not that new, 1605 01:15:43,400 --> 01:15:46,640 Speaker 3: but texting now I get probably three or four day now, 1606 01:15:46,640 --> 01:15:48,320 Speaker 3: and I'm guessing that number is going to grow in 1607 01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:49,080 Speaker 3: the near future. 1608 01:15:50,479 --> 01:15:54,120 Speaker 4: It will until the numbers change. So again everything is 1609 01:15:54,560 --> 01:15:56,840 Speaker 4: when I talk about data driven, some of the data 1610 01:15:56,920 --> 01:15:59,400 Speaker 4: is good. So you know, we now know that hey 1611 01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:03,759 Speaker 4: if I it out through email, if if five percent 1612 01:16:03,880 --> 01:16:07,439 Speaker 4: opened my email, then man, I did good. Ninety percent 1613 01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:11,920 Speaker 4: of people with with phones they can't have an unread 1614 01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:14,519 Speaker 4: text message like like like if they get a text message, 1615 01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:18,160 Speaker 4: they have to read it. It's just it's behavior, whereas 1616 01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:21,040 Speaker 4: people are used to having these big, full fat you know, 1617 01:16:21,120 --> 01:16:25,120 Speaker 4: email and sys of unread things. So if you if 1618 01:16:25,120 --> 01:16:27,960 Speaker 4: someone comes and says, hey, if I send a text message, 1619 01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:30,720 Speaker 4: I have a ninety percent chance of them opening it. Well, 1620 01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:33,439 Speaker 4: I'm going to use the text message channel until that 1621 01:16:33,439 --> 01:16:36,559 Speaker 4: that that stat changes and that stack comes back to hey, 1622 01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:40,479 Speaker 4: most text messages are you know, getting bound, getting blocked, 1623 01:16:40,560 --> 01:16:44,280 Speaker 4: aren't being read. Then they'll start changing their tactics. So yeah, 1624 01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:46,960 Speaker 4: that number will go up as long as the stats 1625 01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:48,120 Speaker 4: are people read them. 1626 01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:50,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, your little balloon pops up says you know, one, two, three, 1627 01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:52,880 Speaker 3: or four messages and you click on it like other ads, 1628 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:54,400 Speaker 3: but you click on it to get rid of that. 1629 01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:57,360 Speaker 3: Then the alert that tells you how many there are. 1630 01:16:57,520 --> 01:16:59,960 Speaker 3: I think the phone companies are going to start figuring 1631 01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:01,840 Speaker 3: that out pretty soon is a way to work around that. 1632 01:17:01,880 --> 01:17:04,320 Speaker 3: And then in addition, and we have the eight hundred 1633 01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:07,320 Speaker 3: pound gorilla, which is always and has been now the 1634 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:09,439 Speaker 3: automated robo calls. 1635 01:17:09,520 --> 01:17:12,680 Speaker 4: Right, yeah, uh, there there's a there's an article. I 1636 01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:15,080 Speaker 4: wish I would have researched this, and I know where 1637 01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:16,519 Speaker 4: to go this way, but I was one of my 1638 01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:19,599 Speaker 4: favorite articles I've read, and I'd say the last moth 1639 01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:23,080 Speaker 4: was a guy there was They were interviewing a man 1640 01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:26,160 Speaker 4: who you know, because robo calls are illegal now and 1641 01:17:26,320 --> 01:17:28,080 Speaker 4: with fines of up to I think some of my 1642 01:17:28,160 --> 01:17:31,720 Speaker 4: fifty thousand per you know instance or something. He's he's 1643 01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:35,519 Speaker 4: made a side business of using that that that law 1644 01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:37,920 Speaker 4: because these robo calls is aren't following the law. So 1645 01:17:38,160 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 4: you know he's talking about you know, it's a job 1646 01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:43,439 Speaker 4: like it takes persistence and running papers and knowing the process, 1647 01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:46,080 Speaker 4: all these things. But apparently this guy makes like something 1648 01:17:46,120 --> 01:17:50,120 Speaker 4: like twenty twenty five thousand dollars a month in following 1649 01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:54,960 Speaker 4: up in charging the robo calls that are breaking the laws. 1650 01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:56,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, we all want to figure out a way to 1651 01:17:56,640 --> 01:18:00,000 Speaker 3: streamline that. I get that people continue. I think lonely people. 1652 01:18:00,040 --> 01:18:03,280 Speaker 3: We just want to talk to somebody when the telemarketers call, 1653 01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:06,680 Speaker 3: which is a sad indictment of our society, but it 1654 01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:08,120 Speaker 3: kind of ruins for the rest of us. So that's 1655 01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:11,840 Speaker 3: a getting texted and inundated with all these things. And 1656 01:18:12,040 --> 01:18:15,000 Speaker 3: then finally too, I look at this and go at 1657 01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:17,679 Speaker 3: some point, you know, all these cold and personal marketing 1658 01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:19,920 Speaker 3: messages you get get deleted. They're gonna have to fine 1659 01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:21,719 Speaker 3: tune that, aren't they. I mean, you mentioned the onset 1660 01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:25,639 Speaker 3: of this thing, Brian, that it's it's the different stuff 1661 01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:27,559 Speaker 3: that cuts through the clutter. Be a difference maker, make 1662 01:18:27,600 --> 01:18:29,439 Speaker 3: a change and don't do the same old, same hold 1663 01:18:29,479 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 3: but a lot of these are the same old, samehold 1664 01:18:31,320 --> 01:18:33,759 Speaker 3: that are getting I don't know, I guess marginal results. 1665 01:18:33,760 --> 01:18:37,559 Speaker 4: So it'll continue, it will and and that's the fine 1666 01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:41,040 Speaker 4: line though, right you said the cold and in personal 1667 01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:44,519 Speaker 4: conversation are the marketing message. Well, if you slip over 1668 01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:47,840 Speaker 4: the other side, you know, you know, marketing has the 1669 01:18:47,960 --> 01:18:50,679 Speaker 4: data and the ability to you know, say, hey, Scott, 1670 01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:54,160 Speaker 4: saw you just bought a glass of red wine at 1671 01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:57,640 Speaker 4: dinner last night. Hey, we were selling bread wine. And 1672 01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:00,280 Speaker 4: on that line, you have that that creepy like whoa 1673 01:19:00,400 --> 01:19:02,479 Speaker 4: wait a second, how do you know my name and 1674 01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:05,280 Speaker 4: what I bought what not. You're always trying to kind 1675 01:19:05,280 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 4: of thread that needle of how do I make it 1676 01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:12,599 Speaker 4: important to you and personalize to you?

I guess the stuff 1682 01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:27,840 Speaker 3: that annoys you, Brian, with the news that Ohio leads 1683 01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:31,840 Speaker 3: the country when it comes to spam scam communications. I 1684 01:19:31,840 --> 01:19:34,360 Speaker 3: don't know why we're getting hit, maybe because so many 1685 01:19:34,360 --> 01:19:36,960 Speaker 3: Ohioans apparently like getting that kind of stuff and react 1686 01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:39,160 Speaker 3: to it all the best.

Scott's Loan Show seven hundred w WELW Money Money, 1693 01:19:55,479 --> 01:19:58,519 Speaker 3: Scott's Sloan Show on seven hundred WLW. Not too many 1694 01:19:58,520 --> 01:20:01,960 Speaker 3: more of these left and the show. But Bengals football. 1695 01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:05,760 Speaker 3: Following last week's shutout embarrassment by Baltimore, the Bengals end 1696 01:20:05,800 --> 01:20:08,400 Speaker 3: a two games stead. They're up to what five and 1697 01:20:08,479 --> 01:20:11,479 Speaker 3: ten now, of course out of the playoffs. The team 1698 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:14,920 Speaker 3: is healthy, they look dominant. They look pretty good for 1699 01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:17,759 Speaker 3: most of this game. James Rapeat is here with Bengals 1700 01:20:17,840 --> 01:20:20,240 Speaker 3: Talk dot Com and the Sports Illustrative of course and 1701 01:20:20,439 --> 01:20:25,479 Speaker 3: Lockdown Bengals Podcast. James, welcome, How are you. I'm doing well. 1702 01:20:25,479 --> 01:20:28,600 Speaker 3: I'm doing well. They look pretty good yesterday. As I 1703 01:20:28,640 --> 01:20:30,760 Speaker 3: said healthy. You know when they're healthy when you get 1704 01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:33,240 Speaker 3: tea and you get Jami Joe together, magic things happen. 1705 01:20:34,320 --> 01:20:36,120 Speaker 3: And if you looked at that, certainly you could always 1706 01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:38,280 Speaker 3: do the what if game? Uh, you know, if they 1707 01:20:38,320 --> 01:20:40,840 Speaker 3: stayed healthy this season? What now? Okay, Well that that 1708 01:20:40,880 --> 01:20:44,280 Speaker 3: didn't happen obviously, although I look at this and go, 1709 01:20:44,320 --> 01:20:47,120 Speaker 3: I've seen this movie before in previous lives, James and 1710 01:20:47,160 --> 01:20:49,120 Speaker 3: you have as well. In that the Bengals going they 1711 01:20:49,160 --> 01:20:51,599 Speaker 3: beat Baltimore and then they went out, let's say, their 1712 01:20:51,680 --> 01:20:53,160 Speaker 3: last two games, and now we're in a you know, 1713 01:20:53,200 --> 01:20:54,680 Speaker 3: we're on a three game heater right now. 1714 01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:55,000 Speaker 5: Great. 1715 01:20:55,439 --> 01:20:58,920 Speaker 3: What scares me about that is front office looks at 1716 01:20:58,920 --> 01:21:02,719 Speaker 3: it and goes, We're fine, everything's good. We've done that before. 1717 01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:05,040 Speaker 3: We've done that in previous seasons. Why would this time 1718 01:21:05,080 --> 01:21:05,519 Speaker 3: be different. 1719 01:21:07,080 --> 01:21:09,719 Speaker 7: I don't know that it is. And you're right, that's 1720 01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:14,360 Speaker 7: the scary part because what they may say is, oh, 1721 01:21:14,400 --> 01:21:18,479 Speaker 7: we're born too with healthy Joe, and we've found a 1722 01:21:18,520 --> 01:21:21,880 Speaker 7: way to build the momentum, and that momentum can carry 1723 01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:24,599 Speaker 7: into the offseason, which is completely fallow now. I think 1724 01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:28,800 Speaker 7: specific players can build momentum for themselves. Teams don't carry 1725 01:21:28,840 --> 01:21:31,960 Speaker 7: momentum to it from one year to another. It's not 1726 01:21:31,960 --> 01:21:36,479 Speaker 7: how it works. And so yeah, I think that is 1727 01:21:36,520 --> 01:21:40,559 Speaker 7: the major concern in the thought yesterday as we're starting 1728 01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:43,479 Speaker 7: to wrap the Dolphins and then you see the schedule 1729 01:21:43,520 --> 01:21:46,519 Speaker 7: and it's the Cardinals and the Browns who are both 1730 01:21:46,600 --> 01:21:49,160 Speaker 7: really bad and theoretically you should beat. 1731 01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:54,200 Speaker 3: Well, theoretically you should be able to be able to 1732 01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:57,280 Speaker 3: beat them. But again, let's just say they do. What 1733 01:21:57,960 --> 01:21:59,640 Speaker 3: changes then in the mind. 1734 01:21:59,400 --> 01:22:05,160 Speaker 7: Of the Blackburn I don't know if there's let's start big, 1735 01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:07,519 Speaker 7: big picture. I don't think Duke Tobin and Zach Taylor, 1736 01:22:07,560 --> 01:22:11,439 Speaker 7: I don't think that that is happening. And you go 1737 01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:15,760 Speaker 7: beyond that. Al Golden, the defensive coordinator. Yeah, his first 1738 01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:17,800 Speaker 7: year and they've had an up and down year, but 1739 01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:21,280 Speaker 7: that Zach Taylor Scott and I know he believes in 1740 01:22:21,360 --> 01:22:24,280 Speaker 7: now and so for keeping Zach, I always thought you're 1741 01:22:24,360 --> 01:22:27,120 Speaker 7: keeping up, and so I don't think that they're going 1742 01:22:27,200 --> 01:22:30,120 Speaker 7: to let out go. And so then what change do 1743 01:22:30,160 --> 01:22:34,120 Speaker 7: you want, like what major changes? You know, maybe you're saying, 1744 01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:36,599 Speaker 7: all right, you want them to add more scouts, which 1745 01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 7: sounds great to me, or you want them to do 1746 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:43,519 Speaker 7: organizational structural changes like that, and maybe some of that 1747 01:22:43,560 --> 01:22:46,439 Speaker 7: could happen. But from a coaching staff standpoint or a 1748 01:22:46,520 --> 01:22:49,599 Speaker 7: Duke Tobin standpoint, which those are the two areas that 1749 01:22:49,640 --> 01:22:53,400 Speaker 7: fans are frustrated with and calling for change. I just 1750 01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:55,559 Speaker 7: don't think you're going to see it, because you're right. 1751 01:22:55,600 --> 01:22:58,360 Speaker 7: I think they have a good shot to win these 1752 01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:00,519 Speaker 7: next two games, and even if they split that, I 1753 01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:02,519 Speaker 7: don't think Zach Taylor was necessarily in danger. 1754 01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:05,840 Speaker 3: I don't see that either, simply because they don't like 1755 01:23:05,880 --> 01:23:07,680 Speaker 3: to pay someone for not playing for them or not 1756 01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:10,000 Speaker 3: working for them mean part of the organization. They're extremely 1757 01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:13,080 Speaker 3: loyal to a fault, and I contend you knowose people. 1758 01:23:13,120 --> 01:23:17,519 Speaker 3: There's billboards up fire, Duke fire Zach. Okay, great, you 1759 01:23:17,520 --> 01:23:19,800 Speaker 3: could bring in I don't know. You could bring Bill 1760 01:23:19,840 --> 01:23:22,240 Speaker 3: Belichick in, You could bring Bill Cower in, You could 1761 01:23:22,240 --> 01:23:25,080 Speaker 3: bring in George Hallis. You can bring in Hall of 1762 01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:28,280 Speaker 3: Fame coaches if you want to. But the problem, to 1763 01:23:28,320 --> 01:23:31,760 Speaker 3: me and I think most fans, it's above them. It 1764 01:23:31,800 --> 01:23:34,599 Speaker 3: doesn't matter the coaching, it's the front office. And yeah, 1765 01:23:34,640 --> 01:23:36,800 Speaker 3: you've added more pieces to your scouting staff. Still, the 1766 01:23:36,800 --> 01:23:41,519 Speaker 3: smalle Cy NFL, they tend to be a pound foolish 1767 01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:45,320 Speaker 3: penny wise. But unless that attitude changes, it really doesn't 1768 01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:47,280 Speaker 3: matter who the coach and GM are. I mean, could 1769 01:23:47,320 --> 01:23:49,120 Speaker 3: Duke Tobin do his job if he had more tools? 1770 01:23:49,120 --> 01:23:52,160 Speaker 3: He says no. But like Zach being the spokesperson for 1771 01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:56,160 Speaker 3: the entire organization, if it continues to be that way, 1772 01:23:56,240 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 3: it doesn't really matter who you bring in. Am I right? 1773 01:24:00,640 --> 01:24:03,320 Speaker 7: I think to a degree, yeah, I think to a degree. 1774 01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:08,080 Speaker 7: It's at the same time I do things that certain 1775 01:24:08,120 --> 01:24:11,439 Speaker 7: things could change and matter, And the identity of the 1776 01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:15,960 Speaker 7: team and the players is as much as you put 1777 01:24:15,960 --> 01:24:18,040 Speaker 7: it on ownership, it certainly would be the head coach 1778 01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:21,200 Speaker 7: and you take the identity, and I think Zach would say, hey, 1779 01:24:22,280 --> 01:24:25,280 Speaker 7: we know what we need to do to get back 1780 01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:27,679 Speaker 7: to where we need to go. And I don't think 1781 01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:30,840 Speaker 7: they feel like that they're internally that they're super far 1782 01:24:30,880 --> 01:24:34,320 Speaker 7: off from doing that. Obviously part of that is Joe's health. 1783 01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:37,160 Speaker 7: But what I would say is you need to be 1784 01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:39,120 Speaker 7: able to find a way where Joe Burrow misses nine 1785 01:24:39,160 --> 01:24:42,120 Speaker 7: teams that the season doesn't just go completely down the drains. Yeah, 1786 01:24:42,160 --> 01:24:44,840 Speaker 7: And they would push back and say, well, that's our 1787 01:24:44,880 --> 01:24:46,920 Speaker 7: franchise quarterback, and it's really hard to win without your 1788 01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:49,519 Speaker 7: franchise quarter Fine, I am not saying it's not hard 1789 01:24:49,880 --> 01:24:52,400 Speaker 7: hard to win a super Bowl too, but that's the standard. 1790 01:24:52,439 --> 01:24:57,200 Speaker 7: And so yeah, I think the entire organization should be 1791 01:24:57,240 --> 01:25:01,679 Speaker 7: looking at itself right now because Joe Burrow had missed 1792 01:25:01,680 --> 01:25:04,120 Speaker 7: the playoffs for three straight years and that should be 1793 01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:08,280 Speaker 7: damn near impossible, and yet they pulled that off. And yeah, 1794 01:25:08,600 --> 01:25:10,640 Speaker 7: twenty twenty three was the one that I'll give them 1795 01:25:10,640 --> 01:25:12,800 Speaker 7: them all against for, but this year I don't, and 1796 01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:14,400 Speaker 7: certainly last year whinjo without the. 1797 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:16,200 Speaker 3: Yeah it's a down or trae director, you know, the 1798 01:25:16,600 --> 01:25:19,439 Speaker 3: AFC Championship appearance of Super Bowl appearance wre awhile pass 1799 01:25:19,479 --> 01:25:22,919 Speaker 3: that after three seasons something monument has to change. Nonetheless, 1800 01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:26,200 Speaker 3: let's not overshadow we win yesterday against a division rival 1801 01:25:26,200 --> 01:25:29,400 Speaker 3: in the Baltimore Ravens or Baltimore is Baltimore the week 1802 01:25:29,439 --> 01:25:32,600 Speaker 3: before they got got destroyed by them and ending the 1803 01:25:32,600 --> 01:25:35,799 Speaker 3: two game skit obviously five and ten. Now for the Bengals, 1804 01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:38,479 Speaker 3: Dolphins are a terrible team. Two it gets benched in 1805 01:25:38,520 --> 01:25:41,280 Speaker 3: favor of a rookie. Bengals had a at third quarter 1806 01:25:41,320 --> 01:25:44,160 Speaker 3: was unbelievable. Three takeaways a fourth down stop in the 1807 01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:47,439 Speaker 3: third quarter set up the offense for the forty five 1808 01:25:47,479 --> 01:25:49,880 Speaker 3: to twenty one win Ki, And you know, I watch 1809 01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:52,479 Speaker 3: that game and I went, well, that was kind of 1810 01:25:52,520 --> 01:25:54,920 Speaker 3: an unremarkable first half. I mean, Bengals on the first 1811 01:25:54,960 --> 01:25:57,080 Speaker 3: drive in Miami with a fumble caused by Battle and 1812 01:25:57,360 --> 01:25:59,880 Speaker 3: Miles Murphy scoops the ball up. Barrett Carter in her 1813 01:26:00,040 --> 01:26:02,200 Speaker 3: have some of the Dolphins next drive. Dolphins had a 1814 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:04,040 Speaker 3: lot of big plays in the first and somewhat in 1815 01:26:04,080 --> 01:26:05,479 Speaker 3: the second half against the Bengals. 1816 01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:09,360 Speaker 7: Yeah, and they did, and it did feel like at 1817 01:26:09,360 --> 01:26:11,200 Speaker 7: one point it was going to be a shootout. And 1818 01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:14,439 Speaker 7: the Bengals go down, they score and take a lead, 1819 01:26:15,040 --> 01:26:19,120 Speaker 7: and then Devin Chan has his huge run where Geno 1820 01:26:19,280 --> 01:26:22,240 Speaker 7: Stone and you mentioned we only have a few games 1821 01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:24,880 Speaker 7: left of this, we better have only a few games. 1822 01:26:24,520 --> 01:26:30,040 Speaker 7: I think the I mean he's right in front of 1823 01:26:30,160 --> 01:26:32,280 Speaker 7: Devin Chan and he doesn't even get a finger on no, 1824 01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:35,960 Speaker 7: I don't think, goes off and scores a really long 1825 01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:38,240 Speaker 7: touchdown and you're like, all right, well, this is going 1826 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:40,720 Speaker 7: to be a shootout. And obviously the Dolphins took the 1827 01:26:40,800 --> 01:26:45,360 Speaker 7: lead later in the half, but this this defense, they 1828 01:26:45,360 --> 01:26:49,280 Speaker 7: were opportunistic and they force the fumble and then they 1829 01:26:49,280 --> 01:26:51,800 Speaker 7: bat the ball up and it gets intercepted. And that's 1830 01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:55,680 Speaker 7: usually what happens when you're facing a rookie quarterback, a 1831 01:26:55,800 --> 01:26:58,400 Speaker 7: late round rookie quarterback making its first start, is you 1832 01:26:58,439 --> 01:27:01,280 Speaker 7: can force a couple of turn on. So that's a 1833 01:27:01,360 --> 01:27:03,639 Speaker 7: game they should have won. When you have Joe Burrow 1834 01:27:03,680 --> 01:27:05,240 Speaker 7: and you have Jamar and t and you have your 1835 01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:08,960 Speaker 7: fallout and the weapons and a defense that has shown 1836 01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:11,320 Speaker 7: as bad as they've been this year, they've shown that 1837 01:27:11,360 --> 01:27:16,439 Speaker 7: they can force turnovers in tee times and they did that. 1838 01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:18,479 Speaker 7: I mean, it was a crazy third quarter where the 1839 01:27:18,520 --> 01:27:20,280 Speaker 7: game just completely gets away from Miami. Yeah. 1840 01:27:20,280 --> 01:27:22,439 Speaker 3: I've never seen a melt down well, I mean Bengals 1841 01:27:22,520 --> 01:27:24,559 Speaker 3: opponent melt down lock that. Bengals have had plenty of 1842 01:27:24,560 --> 01:27:29,040 Speaker 3: that these days. And for sure, oh my god, it's 1843 01:27:29,040 --> 01:27:31,200 Speaker 3: good to say another the other team, the opponent actually 1844 01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:33,439 Speaker 3: had that. App James Rapeen from Bengals Talk dot Com 1845 01:27:33,439 --> 01:27:37,760 Speaker 3: and Lockdown Bengals podcast, chopping up the win yesterday, get 1846 01:27:37,840 --> 01:27:41,200 Speaker 3: right game for the Bengals. Certainly it looked on weak spots. 1847 01:27:41,200 --> 01:27:44,200 Speaker 3: You mentioned Genostone. He and all intensive purpose should not 1848 01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:45,800 Speaker 3: be in the league now. He shouldn't be on the 1849 01:27:45,800 --> 01:27:49,760 Speaker 3: team next season. If you're to restructure that defense next year. 1850 01:27:49,840 --> 01:27:53,639 Speaker 3: Who stays? Who do you like? DJ Turner? Obviously, Miles 1851 01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:58,120 Speaker 3: Murphy has surprisingly turned his game around. Shamar Stewart. I 1852 01:27:58,160 --> 01:28:00,360 Speaker 3: think the sample size is a rookie is just too small. 1853 01:28:00,400 --> 01:28:02,280 Speaker 3: With the injuries and the holdout and all the other stuff. 1854 01:28:02,280 --> 01:28:03,559 Speaker 3: You got to give them a little bit of time. 1855 01:28:04,040 --> 01:28:06,559 Speaker 3: But other than that, can you think of people who 1856 01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:09,800 Speaker 3: would be necessary and vital to building around on the 1857 01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:11,120 Speaker 3: defense for twenty twenty six? 1858 01:28:12,880 --> 01:28:17,839 Speaker 7: Oh it's tough, Like right. 1859 01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:18,400 Speaker 4: I'll just go to it. 1860 01:28:19,200 --> 01:28:21,360 Speaker 7: It's such a short list because I think that they're 1861 01:28:21,400 --> 01:28:23,400 Speaker 7: going to build around their young linebackers. But I'm not 1862 01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:25,640 Speaker 7: sure those guys are going to start next year. I 1863 01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:27,280 Speaker 7: just think they have three years left on their deal. 1864 01:28:27,680 --> 01:28:30,439 Speaker 7: Miles Murphy, I think has become a building block piece, 1865 01:28:30,880 --> 01:28:33,160 Speaker 7: But that doesn't mean you don't need another edge rusher 1866 01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:35,960 Speaker 7: like you still do, right, And that's what's really tough 1867 01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:38,880 Speaker 7: here is outside of Corner, And I feel pretty good 1868 01:28:38,880 --> 01:28:41,280 Speaker 7: about Corner. I think Dax Zille and DJ Turner, he 1869 01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:44,639 Speaker 7: saw Jalen Davis, Benball, but Dak Vielle and DJ Corner 1870 01:28:45,080 --> 01:28:47,959 Speaker 7: DJ Turner, I think those are two real building blocks. 1871 01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:50,360 Speaker 7: Jordan Battle I think he can start for you in 1872 01:28:50,400 --> 01:28:53,800 Speaker 7: his final year of his rookie rookie deal. Gino Stone 1873 01:28:53,840 --> 01:28:55,519 Speaker 7: has played his way out of Cincinnati. I would not 1874 01:28:56,120 --> 01:28:58,920 Speaker 7: I wouldn't have him play on Sunday this week, to 1875 01:28:58,960 --> 01:29:03,360 Speaker 7: be honest with you, I would try to get a 1876 01:29:03,400 --> 01:29:05,760 Speaker 7: look at some of these young defensive linemen. Obviously, he 1877 01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:07,760 Speaker 7: tells Famar Stewart out there, you need to get him 1878 01:29:07,800 --> 01:29:10,320 Speaker 7: as many looks as you can, m Kimley Jackson, as 1879 01:29:10,320 --> 01:29:12,479 Speaker 7: many looks as you can, just to see if there's 1880 01:29:12,479 --> 01:29:16,400 Speaker 7: anything there. But you're talking about all three levels. You're 1881 01:29:16,400 --> 01:29:19,040 Speaker 7: going to need to invest in your defensive line room 1882 01:29:19,320 --> 01:29:24,439 Speaker 7: and tactical linebacker and safety. And you still can use 1883 01:29:24,439 --> 01:29:27,640 Speaker 7: another corner, There's no doubt about it. So there's a 1884 01:29:27,640 --> 01:29:30,120 Speaker 7: lot of work to be done in my mind, specifically 1885 01:29:30,160 --> 01:29:33,160 Speaker 7: in free agency where you go get proven talent that 1886 01:29:33,560 --> 01:29:35,040 Speaker 7: can fill some of those needs. 1887 01:29:35,240 --> 01:29:37,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and they did have a quarter for sure. I 1888 01:29:37,600 --> 01:29:40,600 Speaker 3: mean at halftime, I'm watching them interview Zach Taylor for 1889 01:29:40,640 --> 01:29:43,920 Speaker 3: the three questions he gets, and one of is he 1890 01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:46,040 Speaker 3: responded saying, you know, if we could win the turnover 1891 01:29:46,080 --> 01:29:49,719 Speaker 3: battle and sure enough to go out and get four 1892 01:29:50,040 --> 01:29:52,519 Speaker 3: just in the third quarter, alone. That was absolutely remarkable. 1893 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:55,160 Speaker 3: Talk about calling your shot on the other side of 1894 01:29:55,160 --> 01:29:58,919 Speaker 3: the ball. Though offensively, Joe Burrow had the worst performance 1895 01:29:58,960 --> 01:30:01,799 Speaker 3: of his career last week against Baltimore. This week twenty 1896 01:30:01,800 --> 01:30:04,400 Speaker 3: five or thirty two, three hundred nine yards, four tds. 1897 01:30:04,960 --> 01:30:07,800 Speaker 3: He has surpassed twenty thousand career passing yards and one 1898 01:30:07,840 --> 01:30:11,240 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty touchdown passes. And they pulled him after 1899 01:30:11,280 --> 01:30:13,559 Speaker 3: Cincinnati was up by thirty one. That's a great comeback 1900 01:30:13,560 --> 01:30:15,160 Speaker 3: game for QB one. 1901 01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:21,559 Speaker 7: Yeah, it is, it is, and he's that's what you expect. 1902 01:30:21,800 --> 01:30:24,720 Speaker 7: Like I went and I was thinking about it going 1903 01:30:25,080 --> 01:30:27,160 Speaker 7: into the game, and certainly when I was driving to 1904 01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:29,000 Speaker 7: the game, and I'm like, man, I think Joe's just 1905 01:30:29,040 --> 01:30:31,800 Speaker 7: gonna play really well to it. Yeah, Like it's it's 1906 01:30:31,800 --> 01:30:35,680 Speaker 7: study out, it's Miami, and it kind of resets you. 1907 01:30:35,920 --> 01:30:37,800 Speaker 7: And he's playing against the team that he should be 1908 01:30:37,840 --> 01:30:41,599 Speaker 7: able to dispect and bounce back against, and he did that. Now, 1909 01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:44,120 Speaker 7: he was aided by some short fields, but you look 1910 01:30:44,200 --> 01:30:47,360 Speaker 7: at it as one forty six and a half quarterback 1911 01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:50,280 Speaker 7: graating passer rating is the second best of his career, 1912 01:30:50,840 --> 01:30:53,719 Speaker 7: and the four touchdowns, it just seemed like he got 1913 01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:57,400 Speaker 7: whatever he needed to, and early on it was t Higgins, 1914 01:30:57,720 --> 01:31:00,280 Speaker 7: and then it evolved into Jamar Chase, and then it 1915 01:31:00,360 --> 01:31:03,320 Speaker 7: was Chase Brown and andre Yosabash made a big play, 1916 01:31:03,560 --> 01:31:05,439 Speaker 7: and Drew Sample made some big plays, and then it 1917 01:31:05,439 --> 01:31:07,599 Speaker 7: was Nike get sticky with the touchdown and he just 1918 01:31:07,680 --> 01:31:09,960 Speaker 7: was able to spread the ball out. And so I 1919 01:31:10,880 --> 01:31:13,800 Speaker 7: the one takeaway I had from yesterday from a Joe 1920 01:31:13,800 --> 01:31:18,720 Speaker 7: Burrow perspective is it was just, at least for me, 1921 01:31:18,760 --> 01:31:20,879 Speaker 7: if I was in the organization, it would just remind 1922 01:31:20,960 --> 01:31:23,880 Speaker 7: you how close you can be when you have a 1923 01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:28,200 Speaker 7: franchise quarterback and all star quarterback like that, and how 1924 01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:31,080 Speaker 7: desperate and bad you look when you don't. Yeah, And 1925 01:31:31,120 --> 01:31:34,000 Speaker 7: so to me it should remind them that they need 1926 01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 7: to be very aggressive this offseason. But you know, I'm 1927 01:31:37,320 --> 01:31:41,600 Speaker 7: not damn and they're not me, right exactly exactly. 1928 01:31:42,400 --> 01:31:45,839 Speaker 3: Chase Brown twelve carries, sixty six yards then and a touchdown. 1929 01:31:45,880 --> 01:31:48,400 Speaker 3: By the way, as a receiver, just four catches forty 1930 01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:52,320 Speaker 3: three and two touchdowns. That was a huge performance by 1931 01:31:52,320 --> 01:31:54,479 Speaker 3: the feature back. What three of those scores came in 1932 01:31:54,600 --> 01:31:57,160 Speaker 3: just over I think seven minutes of game time. Those 1933 01:31:57,200 --> 01:32:00,200 Speaker 3: of us rushing and receiving scores and you see that, 1934 01:32:00,240 --> 01:32:02,400 Speaker 3: you go, wow, why can't we have that nice thing 1935 01:32:02,439 --> 01:32:04,639 Speaker 3: all the time? And then you know, next two games 1936 01:32:04,680 --> 01:32:06,920 Speaker 3: maybe he rushes for inal fifty yards. I just I 1937 01:32:06,920 --> 01:32:07,679 Speaker 3: can't figure it out. 1938 01:32:09,439 --> 01:32:15,519 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's it is tough. I'll say this. I think 1939 01:32:16,240 --> 01:32:19,640 Speaker 7: the past two weeks, the Buffalo game, I felt like 1940 01:32:19,720 --> 01:32:24,000 Speaker 7: it was all snow and that was the issue. Last week, 1941 01:32:26,240 --> 01:32:28,200 Speaker 7: the offense was just so bad it was hard for 1942 01:32:28,240 --> 01:32:30,840 Speaker 7: me to put it on Chase. But he definitely has 1943 01:32:30,920 --> 01:32:32,840 Speaker 7: shown the series well over the twel hundred yards from 1944 01:32:32,840 --> 01:32:35,799 Speaker 7: scrimmage that last year and at the end of last season, 1945 01:32:35,840 --> 01:32:39,519 Speaker 7: wasn't a fluke. I mean the juke he put on 1946 01:32:39,600 --> 01:32:43,200 Speaker 7: that Dolphins defender in the third quarter when it's seventeen 1947 01:32:43,280 --> 01:32:46,880 Speaker 7: fourteen after catching the ball out of the backfield and 1948 01:32:47,160 --> 01:32:49,439 Speaker 7: I use number twenty. I forget exactly what which Dolphin's 1949 01:32:49,439 --> 01:32:52,919 Speaker 7: depender was, but to score the touchdown like that's special, 1950 01:32:52,960 --> 01:32:56,679 Speaker 7: Like that's that's a really high level play. And we've 1951 01:32:56,720 --> 01:32:58,519 Speaker 7: seen that where he just continues to rack u one 1952 01:32:58,560 --> 01:33:02,120 Speaker 7: hundred plus yards from scrim to China from I do 1953 01:33:02,200 --> 01:33:05,559 Speaker 7: think he's a building block and it's gonna be interesting 1954 01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:08,720 Speaker 7: because he's going into a sports season and end of 1955 01:33:08,760 --> 01:33:11,720 Speaker 7: his rookie contract next year? Is that a guy they 1956 01:33:11,720 --> 01:33:14,320 Speaker 7: tried to get ahead of with a team friendly deal. 1957 01:33:14,400 --> 01:33:16,599 Speaker 7: Do they draft a running back instead? I know everyone's 1958 01:33:16,640 --> 01:33:18,800 Speaker 7: focused on the defense. They're gonna have to spend some 1959 01:33:18,880 --> 01:33:22,880 Speaker 7: draft butts on offense to either start building the replacements 1960 01:33:22,920 --> 01:33:26,200 Speaker 7: Andre Joselvashkaian last year, next season, you know, like they 1961 01:33:26,840 --> 01:33:29,840 Speaker 7: start to do that now, and and so I do 1962 01:33:29,920 --> 01:33:32,120 Speaker 7: wonder what they'll do with a guy like Chase Brown 1963 01:33:32,200 --> 01:33:33,320 Speaker 7: has clearly been productive. 1964 01:33:34,120 --> 01:33:37,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, James Rapine, We've got two games up, both home games, 1965 01:33:37,520 --> 01:33:39,519 Speaker 3: so the road trips are over way to end in Miami. 1966 01:33:39,520 --> 01:33:41,760 Speaker 3: Well of the sunshine. It's nice and maybe that was 1967 01:33:41,800 --> 01:33:43,960 Speaker 3: the happy juice that Joe Borroniti. You see some fight 1968 01:33:44,040 --> 01:33:46,640 Speaker 3: him and d to quit tripping and just focus on 1969 01:33:46,680 --> 01:33:50,360 Speaker 3: the game. Home games against Arizona, they're fighting for a spot. Cleveland, 1970 01:33:50,439 --> 01:33:53,040 Speaker 3: of course, is out of it, and there are many 1971 01:33:53,080 --> 01:33:55,320 Speaker 3: in Cincinnati, and I think some people, even in the 1972 01:33:55,320 --> 01:33:58,000 Speaker 3: media and influencers, that think the Bengals should tank it 1973 01:33:58,720 --> 01:34:00,479 Speaker 3: in order to get a better draft. I don't think 1974 01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:02,880 Speaker 3: football's ever worked that way, nor should it work that way. 1975 01:34:02,920 --> 01:34:04,479 Speaker 3: And not only that, even if you did and the 1976 01:34:04,560 --> 01:34:06,920 Speaker 3: lost three instead of one three. What does that move 1977 01:34:06,960 --> 01:34:07,960 Speaker 3: you up a couple spots. 1978 01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:13,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, if they lost yesterday, the eighth instead of ninth. Late. Now, 1979 01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:16,479 Speaker 7: if they win the next two, there's a decent chance 1980 01:34:16,520 --> 01:34:20,360 Speaker 7: that they they dropped to the twelfth, the fourteenth pick 1981 01:34:21,000 --> 01:34:25,920 Speaker 7: like in that range. I think is realistic to expect. 1982 01:34:24,920 --> 01:34:30,080 Speaker 7: I did it. I do. I think it's It's really 1983 01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:32,200 Speaker 7: tough because you want to see Joe Burrow play football, 1984 01:34:32,560 --> 01:34:35,439 Speaker 7: and if he plays like he did yesterday, then that 1985 01:34:35,800 --> 01:34:39,840 Speaker 7: you live with it. But at the same time, they 1986 01:34:39,840 --> 01:34:44,120 Speaker 7: do need talent, man, and the earlier you pick, it's 1987 01:34:44,200 --> 01:34:46,479 Speaker 7: not just the first round. The earlier you pick in 1988 01:34:46,479 --> 01:34:48,360 Speaker 7: the first round, the earlier you pick in the second 1989 01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:54,519 Speaker 7: fourth different And so that is I'm not telling fans 1990 01:34:54,520 --> 01:34:56,120 Speaker 7: that they need to worry about that or should worry 1991 01:34:56,120 --> 01:34:58,679 Speaker 7: about that, because that's not their job. That is my job. 1992 01:34:58,960 --> 01:35:01,120 Speaker 7: So I do think about it. The good news is 1993 01:35:01,200 --> 01:35:04,519 Speaker 7: is their draft position was completely unchanged. They went into 1994 01:35:04,600 --> 01:35:08,240 Speaker 7: yesterday picking ninth, they're still picking ninth. I think if 1995 01:35:08,240 --> 01:35:10,360 Speaker 7: they win the final two, they'll be in the uh 1996 01:35:10,600 --> 01:35:12,719 Speaker 7: the low double digit, somewhere in the ten to fourteen. 1997 01:35:12,800 --> 01:35:15,800 Speaker 3: RAS gotcham uh James rapine. Let's catch up off this 1998 01:35:15,840 --> 01:35:18,639 Speaker 3: week obviously, but double catch up and do a post 1999 01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:20,160 Speaker 3: mortem on the season.
