1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Day seventy one and partly Sonny getting up to eighty

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 1: three Tomorrow night might get some thunderstorms and.

3
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:08,879
Speaker 2: Then back down to fifty six Monday and Tuesday.

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: This weather has been crazy, but hey, we have opening

5
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 1: day to look forward to on Thursday. This is really fun.

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,759
Speaker 1: Red's Baseball. We're going to get more into that in

7
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 1: a little bit. We're going to kick off the show though,

8
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: with something that I've been focused on lately and as

9
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 1: we get older, this is a topic like we should

10
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 1: all be paying attention to.

11
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 2: That is brain health.

12
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 1: How to keep a healthy, happy, focused brain. And on

13
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: the phone with me, doctor Timothy Lacy, Chief Science officer

14
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: with Torque three. Doctor Lacy, you're also a medical doctor

15
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:48,560
Speaker 1: and a neuropsychiatrist that specializes in the area of the brain,

16
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 1: and I'm so excited to talk to you today.

17
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 2: Thanks and welcome to the show.

18
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 3: Well, thank you for having me. I'm happy to be here.

19
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: So I have been reading a lot about this lately,

20
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: about how social media doom scrolling, in other words, dopamine

21
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: overload and those short reels the videos from Instagram and

22
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,320
Speaker 1: TikTok are killing our attention span and messing with our

23
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: short term memory. And because you and I talked a

24
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: little bit yesterday for the interview, today, I know everything

25
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: we hear, everything we think about affects our neuroplasty. So

26
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: let's start with what is neuroplasty and how do we

27
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 1: take care of it?

28
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 2: Doctor Lacy?

29
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,199
Speaker 3: Okay, Neuroplasticity is.

30
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 2: A neuroplasticity, thank you.

31
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 3: Neuroplasticity meaning the word plasticity has to do with the

32
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 3: things that are moldable. You can think of warm plastic

33
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 3: being moldable and changeable. Well, we used to think that neurons.

34
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 3: Once you were born, you had the neurons that you

35
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 3: had and that was it, and they were set in

36
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 3: concrete and they were not changeable. But we've learned over

37
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 3: the past two or three decades that neurons are very

38
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 3: changeable and we can even develop new neurons. It's called neurogenesis.

39
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 3: So the brain is very plastic, very changeable. And if

40
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 3: you think about how we live, we live in this

41
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 3: sensory world where we're constantly being bombarded with sights, with sounds,

42
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 3: with textures, with conversations, and the way we make sense

43
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:31,119
Speaker 3: of that is our neurons that are constantly being molded

44
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 3: by everything we experience, so that if you can imagine

45
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 3: you're hearing me right now, you don't have to imagine

46
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 3: you're hearing you right now. You are hearing You're hearing

47
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:50,359
Speaker 3: me right now. Your auditory cortex is processing this information,

48
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 3: and it's making sense of what I'm telling you based

49
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,399
Speaker 3: on everything you've ever heard throughout your life, and you're

50
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:04,239
Speaker 3: comparing it to old and generating new information, then storing

51
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 3: that new content in a not just in the auditory cortex,

52
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 3: which deals with sound, but throughout your brain in a

53
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 3: series of connections representational networks we call them. So it's

54
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 3: what we experience on a day to day basis. We're

55
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 3: not just changing one single thing. We change who we

56
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 3: are as a person.

57
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: So do we ever lose our neuroplasticity, Well.

58
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 3: It diminishes over time, but there's certainly as we age

59
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 3: it diminishes. But one of the things I'm involved with

60
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 3: is the work in healing damaged brains. And so there's

61
00:03:54,240 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 3: this myth that when someone is healing a brain for

62
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 3: whatever reason, they reach a plateau at which plasticity is

63
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 3: no longer possible. But what we've learned over time is

64
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 3: that the process of neuroplasticity doesn't go away anymore than

65
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 3: sight or sound processing goes away. So when we talk

66
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 3: about plasticity a little bit more about that. When I

67
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 3: talk about the brain change and we're talking about individual

68
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 3: neurons actually growing bits and pieces of the neuron, it's

69
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 3: actually changing. If you think of a neuron, it's like

70
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 3: a trunk with branches of a tree. The little branches

71
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 3: are changing, they're growing, they're adding new leaves, if you

72
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 3: can imagine that in response to what a person is

73
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 3: going through on a day to day basis.

74
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: So if somebody is used to driving to their job

75
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: the same exact way and habits your morning habits, you

76
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 1: do everything the same way.

77
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 2: That does that help.

78
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: To lose neuroplasticity or gain If you take a different

79
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: way to work, does that change things up?

80
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 2: How does that work?

81
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 3: Yes, it does by presenting challenges. So one of the

82
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 3: things we do that's very adaptive is that as we develop,

83
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 3: we starting into time we're little kiddos, we develop automatic

84
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 3: response patterns, so that you know, once you learn a

85
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 3: certain way of doing something, you don't have to think

86
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 3: about it anymore. It just yes, do it automatically, which

87
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 3: is good. We should be able to do that. If

88
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 3: we had to think about everything we did on a

89
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 3: day to day basis, we would go nuts. So we

90
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 3: can't do that, So we have automatic response patterns. Now

91
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 3: when we're faced with some being new and challenging, it

92
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 3: actually forces us to have to address the challenge by

93
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 3: engaging different brain regions, especially those brain regions that are

94
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 3: let's say driving. So you see something different, where you

95
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 3: have to process that site in the part of your

96
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 3: brain that addresses visual information. If there's someone honking, you

97
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 3: have to process that, and you take in all of

98
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 3: that information, and then you have to engage the decision

99
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 3: making parts of your brain, which are in the frontal lobes,

100
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 3: the front part of your brain, So you have to

101
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 3: make decisions. So you have to actively engage. And once

102
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 3: you learn those new patterns where you can store them

103
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 3: by making these brain changes, and by the way, not

104
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 3: just structural brain changes, but actually functional brain changes. By

105
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 3: doing what is commonly thought of as rewiring the brain,

106
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 3: we're actually not you know, change of wires, but we're

107
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 3: re configuring.

108
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: Like things, things firing up, like lighting up. I can

109
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: see like lighting up in your brain firing in a

110
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: different way.

111
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, Donna, that's exactly right. You can think of,

112
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 3: you know, think of those lights going on differently than

113
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 3: they were before, maybe turning on some different bulbs in

114
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 3: your string of Christmas tree lights.

115
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: We're talking to doctor Timothy Lacy, MD, neuropsychiatrist and brain specialist.

116
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: So I wanted to ask you about our cell phones

117
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: and wireless headphones. Are they bad for our brain? Because

118
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: we're starting to hear that as well. What are your

119
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: thoughts on this?

120
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, they're unhelpful, okay, And there's more and more

121
00:07:54,240 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 4: data emerging about the negative impact of in terms of

122
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 4: leading to the despair, learnliness, depression. When we start doom

123
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 4: scrolling or getting focused in social media, we tend to

124
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 4: focus on those things that either excite us or that

125
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 4: activate if you can think of the very deep structures,

126
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,679
Speaker 4: the fight or flight mechanisms, the parts of the brain

127
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 4: that detect danger, and we focus on these very negative

128
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:32,679
Speaker 4: things or things that are stimulating, and that becomes.

129
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 3: Our whole world. And we know that the world doesn't

130
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 3: work that way.

131
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I watched doctor Lacy. I watched a video

132
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 1: of a brain surgeon. He was a brain surgeon, and

133
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: he was also a psychiatrist, and so he was very

134
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 1: involved with the inner workings of the brain. And he said,

135
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: the number one thing we should learn, the biggest thing

136
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,319
Speaker 1: to know as a human to really get good at,

137
00:08:55,679 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: is becoming emotional intelligent and emotionally aware.

138
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 2: And I love this topic.

139
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: Can you talk a little bit about what is your

140
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: definition of emotional intelligence and how can we learn with

141
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: parts of our brain to become better at this.

142
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 3: Well, the parts of the brain that generally have a

143
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 3: greater impact on emotional processing are the right hemisphere of

144
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 3: our brain and then deeper structures known as limbic structures.

145
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 3: People may have heard of the limbic system as well

146
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 3: as other structures like the amygdala and other brain parts

147
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 3: people may have heard of well. In order to be

148
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 3: emotionally connected to someone, these parts of the brains of

149
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 3: the brain need to be functioning an integrated, synchronous way,

150
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 3: and you have to be able to process what's going

151
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 3: on with other people at an emotional level, and it's

152
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 3: you're not fully integrated yourself as a person. It makes

153
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 3: it very difficult to tune into what other people are experiencing,

154
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 3: either by their body language or by the words they use.

155
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 3: But actually more their body language. We communicate more with

156
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 3: our tone of voice, with our movement, with how we

157
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 3: change our body positions and so on. We communicate a

158
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,679
Speaker 3: lot more that way than we do with the words

159
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 3: that we speak.

160
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've read recently that communication is seven percent talking

161
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: and the rest is energy. I mean, you just give

162
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 1: off a level of energy. But with emotional intelligence, it

163
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: is it's how it's how you understand what you're feeling

164
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: on the inside and then how do you manage it.

165
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: So I always tell my yoga students too, when you're

166
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: in tras, when you're in traffic is a great it's

167
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: a great idea to pay attention to how you're feeling.

168
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: You're stuck in traffic and you can feel your emotions rise.

169
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 2: I call it big wave surfing. And if you.

170
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: Understand what's happening in your body, the emotional intelligence, you'll

171
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: be able to manage that and just be able to

172
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: breathe through it. And same thing, when you're in kind

173
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: of an argument with somebody that you love, you get

174
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: that surge of emotion, and if you understand how to

175
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: be able to control that, then you can pretty much

176
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: go anywhere in life and be okay. That's what I

177
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 1: mean about emotional intelligence and do you agree with that?

178
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah, absolutely. You have to be able to engage

179
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 3: we talked about the frontal load yepon ago to be

180
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 3: able to engage that and for lact of a better

181
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 3: way of saying it, to rise above the emotional noise

182
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 3: that might cloud your judgment. And so the ability to

183
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 3: be present consciously where you are allows you to then

184
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 3: be aware of those emotions. That wave that you're talking about,

185
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 3: writing that wave, you'd like to be able to surf

186
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 3: the wave rather than have it crashed down on your

187
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 3: head and you end up flailing in the in the water,

188
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:36,199
Speaker 3: maybe sometimes doing things you later regret as you're swinging

189
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 3: your arms trying to to to stay afloat and end

190
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 3: up hitting someone in the head.

191
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: How much of our emotional patterns are hardwired versus changeable?

192
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 2: Would you say, well, this is we have to start thinking.

193
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,559
Speaker 3: We have to think first of all about near a

194
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 3: development as a child. As a child, you know, we

195
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 3: learn how to navigate in the world by using our site, sound, touch,

196
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 3: and our emotional systems. Our emotional system is much more

197
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 3: mature when we're born than our other functions, and we

198
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 3: start learning our emotional patterns from the time we're in

199
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 3: the crib. So, for example, if you take a little

200
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 3: baby in the crib who's crying and is hungry, and

201
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 3: it's little belly is hurting, and the mother or caregiver

202
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 3: or father come into the room and pick up the

203
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 3: little baby and nurture it and hug it and comfort it, well,

204
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 3: that baby learns right away that when life is difficult,

205
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 3: when my belly hurts, it's going to be okay. So

206
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 3: that establishes a sense of safety and security when caregivers

207
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 3: do that sort of thing. On the other hand, let's

208
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 3: take that same infant crying. It's tummy hurts, it's scared,

209
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 3: the room is dark, and nobody comes. Well, that's going

210
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 3: to create a very different set of expectations. Now, these

211
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 3: expectations and experiences don't have words attached to them. These

212
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 3: things happen before the child learns any sort of sounds

213
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 3: or words other than the basic two's and sounds like that.

214
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 3: So we start forming our way of making sense of

215
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 3: the world emotionally from the time we're little ditty and

216
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 3: we start developing our emotional patterns and our little personality

217
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 3: start to form. Do we become engaged with the world.

218
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 3: Are we excited about the world? Are we afraid of

219
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 3: the world? Do we think the world is a dangerous place?

220
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 3: And only when we start developing words can we start

221
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 3: creating a verbal narrative to make sense of all of that. Gonna,

222
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 3: you're born with a personality, but then we start hardwiring.

223
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 2: For protection for that.

224
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: Yes, Okay, we're gonna when you're gonna stay with me

225
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: for one more break because I want to talk about

226
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: how critical sleep is for a healthy brain.

227
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 2: Also exercise and nutrition.

228
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: We're going to talk more about that, doctor Lacey, So

229
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: stay with me for one more break. Also, I know

230
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: you work without bounderis ars. It's a new facility in

231
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: Cincinnati that supports stroke victims. So we're we're going to

232
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: get into that in a in just a minute. We'll

233
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: be back right after this break. News Weather Traffic with

234
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 1: Brady Hopkins. It's Donna d on seven hundred w l W, Cincinnati.

235
00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,520

238
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: in the day tomorrow.

239
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 2: You know, I open my deck, I get one or.

Speaker 1: Two days, and then I it rains and I have

241
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 1: to cover everything back up. Oh, I hate to complain,

242
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: and in fact a question I wanted to ask you

243
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: last break, Doctor Timothy Lacy, MD, neuropsychiatrist and brain specialist,

244
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: Thanks for sticking around for one more break with me.

245
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 2: I still have so many questions for you, Doctor Lacey.

246
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 3: Well let's see what we can get.

247
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: Okay, So what happens to the brain if you are

248
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: a constant complainer?

249
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 5: Right?

250
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 1: You just mentioned earlier everything we hear, everything we say,

251
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 1: affects the brain. Well, what if you're married to a

252
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: complainer or worse yourself, you are a chronic complainer?

253
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 2: What does that do?

254
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 3: Well, let's take responsibility for our own complaining. First. You

255
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 3: know what happens is every time we say something, we're

256
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 3: generating a series of thoughts and emotions that accompany that,

257
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:24,439
Speaker 3: and that involves exciting a whole series of neurons that

258
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 3: are spread throughout the brain in these circuits. And if

259
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 3: they're negative, what we're doing every time we do something

260
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 3: like that, we're reinforcing the negative circuits. So, for example,

261
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 3: if I'm frustrated with you about the way you load

262
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 3: the dishwashers, and I look at that, and you're putting

263
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 3: the dishes on the wrong rack, and it's making me crazy. Well,

264
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 3: if I just focus on that over and over, that's

265
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 3: going to generate a negative view of you. It's going

266
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 3: to make my complaining worse. And I'm enforcing that negative

267
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 3: view of you, which is generally unhelpful in a relationship. Right,

268
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 3: And likewise, if I'm on the receiving end of that complaining,

269
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 3: that's going to reinforce my concepts, as accurate or as

270
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 3: inaccurate as it as it may be, that you're just

271
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 3: a complainer. And then I'll have a whole series of

272
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 3: representational connections to that that have to do with you

273
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 3: being a complaining, ungrateful, unhelpful person, and the whole narrative

274
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 3: story that I spin around, yes, around those emotions.

275
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: So so let me just get this. I'm hearing you right,

276
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: if you complain all the time, And really we talked

277
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 1: about energy earlier and how that affects you, not just

278
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: the communication, Because you can talk to somebody who who

279
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: is saying nice things to you but has a weird energy,

280
00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: and you just go, I just get a weird vibe

281
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 1: from that person.

282
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 2: But if you're a constant complainer or.

283
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: You're with someone that they can't do anything right, it's

284
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: gonna it's going to fire up the parts of your

285
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 1: brain that's going to look for more things to complain about.

286
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 2: Is that accurate?

287
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's accurately. You can you can think of this

288
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 3: in terms of a bias. So if we're conceptualizing someone

289
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 3: as a potential threat and then constantly complaining or something

290
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 3: along those lines, we could conceptualize as a symbolic threat. Well,

291
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 3: the parts of our brain that have to do with

292
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 3: detecting threat, of the very very deep brain structures, uh

293
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 3: in the the most in the deepest recesses of our

294
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 3: of our brain are going to be firing up looking

295
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 3: for threat, looking for danger, And we may ignore the

296
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 3: five things that are good in front of us and

297
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 3: and hone in on the negative thing because that's the

298
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 3: one that's important for survival. In order to survive, we

299
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,879
Speaker 3: need to constantly be aware of danger and threat. And

300
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 3: so if we're biased toward looking for that from a

301
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 3: given person, from a boss, from a partner, whomever, then

302
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 3: that's what we're going to notice, because that's what's most important.

303
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 3: To notice for survival.

304
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 2: Wow, that's interesting.

305
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 1: So let's get to some of the good stuff because

306
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 1: I want to talk about outbounders and that kind of stuff,

307
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 1: but I want to in terms of brain health, how

308
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: critical is a good, nice sleep and how many hours

309
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 1: should we officially get?

310
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 2: Like what should we go for?

311
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 3: Well, we should go for seven to eight hours. Now,

312
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 3: there are people who can function just fine on five hours,

313
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 3: or at least they tell themselves that, but no other

314
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 3: are people that function well unless But roughly speaking, seven

315
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 3: to eight hours is optimal. Some people need a little more,

316
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 3: some people need nine. So it's quite variable, but that's

317
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 3: that's the median. And we need very deep sleep. It

318
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 3: takes a while to get into the deepest state of sleep.

319
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 3: We need what's called deep wave sleep, and it's in

320
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 3: that state where we restore neurotransmitters, we replenish them, where

321
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 3: neurons have a chance to rewire and consolidate information from

322
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 3: the day. And if you don't get into those deep

323
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 3: stages of sleep, you're going to be deprived to such

324
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 3: an extent that we know that if people have say

325
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 3: sleep at you know, where they are constantly deprived of sleep,

326
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 3: they have a decreased lifespan. So it's incredibly important.

327
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: Okay, And so the big the top three that everybody

328
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 1: talks about, how important it is, leap, nutrition, exercise, Are

329
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: they all equally important?

330
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 6: Yeah?

331
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 3: I think so. I think they are. I emphasize sleep

332
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 3: and exercise a little bit more than nutrition. And except

333
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:19,639
Speaker 3: to say that if you ate a diet of ultraprocessed foods,

334
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 3: you're really not going to do well.

335
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, but if you.

336
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 3: Eat something like a Mediterranean diet or some sort of

337
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 3: diet that's full of antioxidants and healthy stats, then that's

338
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:37,719
Speaker 3: that's essential. Exercise is incredibly important. We need to not

339
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,919
Speaker 3: only exercise our body, but exercise our brains. And the

340
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 3: constant the increased oxygen level that is generated by aerobic

341
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 3: activity is important for brain health. And we know that

342
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 3: if people have a regular, steady exercise routine, the incidence

343
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 3: of depression is much less and dignitive performance is better.

344
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: Well, and I just read too that if you don't

345
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 1: work out your body and physically get yourself tired, your

346
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 1: brain just goes ninety miles an hour. You literally have

347
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 1: to in order to quiet your mind. You need to

348
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: work out to be able to exhaust yourself.

349
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 2: One more question.

350
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 1: My mom was pretty She was pretty sharp as attack

351
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 1: really till the very end of when she passed away.

352
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: And she used to play you know, backamming and chess

353
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 1: and bridge and board games and crossword puzzles. Are those

354
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 1: important to keep your brain healthy and intact.

355
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 3: Absolutely, we know that cognitive challenges force us to engage

356
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 3: various brain regions in order to solve the problem. If

357
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,640
Speaker 3: their memory games, we have to pull that some distant

358
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 3: memories that we also have to engage what's called working

359
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 3: memory and recent memory in order to solve those types

360
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 3: of puzzles and challenges. And part of the key there

361
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 3: is that it forces us to have to do that,

362
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 3: and unlike social media and doom scrolling, which do not

363
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 3: require that engaging in more active cognitive activities, it forces

364
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 3: us to engage the brain in an active way.

365
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I want to talk about So there's a

366
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 1: brand new facility that you were a part of that

367
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:40,160
Speaker 1: started here in Cincinnati. I know there are more locations

368
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 1: in the country, but it started right here in Cincinnati,

369
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 1: and it's doing some pretty amazing things with VR virtual

370
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 1: reality to help support stroke victims. Obviously, and we can

371
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 1: you can probably give me a better definition. But as

372
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 1: I understand it, stroke which which just means lack of

373
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: blood to the brain. Talk about outbounders ARS, what exactly

374
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: is it?

375
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 3: Well, the outbounder ARS in the AARs stands for Advanced

376
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 3: Rehabilitation System is a novel system that can do some

377
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 3: things that other systems can't do. And so let me

378
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 3: And it has to do with maximizing neuroplasticity as well

379
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 3: by exercising not only the body but the brain. And

380
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 3: we know that most rehab activities involve repetitive muscle movement

381
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 3: in order to regain strength and flexibility and function, and

382
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 3: those are further essential activities. But they do get they

383
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 3: do get boring, they can get tedious, and as a result,

384
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 3: people quit doing them and they quit, they quit participating

385
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 3: in rehabilitation. Well, I'd like to tell you a little

386
00:25:56,320 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 3: bit about the AR if it's hard to conceptualize it

387
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 3: without actually seeing it, So let me paint a little picture.

388
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,640
Speaker 3: Imagine you're on a recumbent bike, which most of us

389
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 3: are familiar with, and you're pedaling away on the recumbent

390
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 3: bike and it gets tiresome, and let's say one of

391
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 3: your legs is weaker than the other one. You start

392
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 3: pedaling in a way that's unbalanced. Let's say the left

393
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 3: leg is weaker and the right leg will push hard,

394
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 3: the left leg kind of flops around, and you're not

395
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:32,959
Speaker 3: really being forced to exercise that weak leg. Well, now,

396
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,479
Speaker 3: let's say you want to get more engaged, and you

397
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 3: have a flat screen in front of the exercise bike

398
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 3: that encourages you to pedal faster and pedal harder, and

399
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 3: maybe presents to you pleasant scenery, all of which can

400
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 3: decrease the sense of boredom and increase your activity, but

401
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 3: it doesn't really present anything novel. Now, if we take

402
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 3: that a step further, Let's say the recumbent bike is

403
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 3: on a moving platform and whenever you steer to the left,

404
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 3: the bike steers to the left, that steers to the right,

405
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 3: and you are in control of the movement. Well, that's

406
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 3: one step above. And now if you imagine being placed

407
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 3: in a virtual world by wearing a virtual reality headset

408
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 3: that gives you visual stimulation in three hundred and sixty

409
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:33,879
Speaker 3: degrees up and down, and you're wearing headphones which gives

410
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:39,400
Speaker 3: you auditory input that's completely synchronized with the visual input.

411
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 3: And let's say you're on this this bike platform that's

412
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 3: on a movement platform, and now you become immersed in

413
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 3: this virtual world, and you become what's known as an avatar.

414
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 3: So now now you can navigate through this world. And

415
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 3: that's what we've developed with the outbounder ARF, a system

416
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 3: in which it's robotically assisted and computer controlled, but which

417
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 3: the patient or the writer we sometimes like to call them,

418
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 3: is in complete control of what happens as one bicycles

419
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 3: down various trails, encounters challenges or tasks. The rider has

420
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 3: to determine how fast they tedal, when to turn to

421
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 3: the left or to the right, when presented with various challenges,

422
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 3: when to break, when to try to steer it and

423
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 3: pedal faster, and all of this creates an environment in

424
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 3: which not only does one have to exercise the impaired muscles,

425
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 3: but to simultaneously engage all of the parts of the

426
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 3: brain that are involved with sight, with sound, with movement,

427
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 3: with balance, motor systems that involve moving the various parts

428
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 3: of the arms and legs that are important for steering

429
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:11,479
Speaker 3: through this environment and speeding up and going down. And

430
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 3: then importantly, the frontal lobes have to be engaged in

431
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 3: order to make decisions when do I turn left? When

432
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 3: do I look to the right, what do I see

433
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 3: over there? And how does that impact what I do?

434
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 3: And all of this fosters increased neuroplasticity so that I

435
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 3: learned to move my arms and legs in a more

436
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 3: functional way that's associated with how I function as a

437
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 3: whole human being, rather than just exercising an isolated motor movement,

438
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 3: moving my arm, moving my leg against strengthening.

439
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 2: How how long is this session on the virtual reality? Say?

440
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 2: By how long? Is that an hour?

441
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 3: Believe it or not. We have people who are impaired

442
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 3: who come in with Hemmy plegia or Jimmy priests for

443
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 3: the weak side, and maybe even somewhat cognitively impaired. They

444
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 3: will get on our system and they will participate in

445
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 3: it for an hour, sometimes less, but you know, so

446
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 3: it depends on the person.

447
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: Ye okay, we just I'm so sorry, doctor Lacey. We

448
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 1: have just thirty seconds. How can somebody get a hold

449
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: of our bounders? Do we have a website?

450
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 3: Yes, ma'am. The easiest way is to google outbounder a

451
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 3: rs Cincinnati and that'll.

452
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 2: Take you right to our time okay, awesome.

453
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: Thank you Doctor Timothy Lacey, MD, neuropsychiatrist and brain specialists.

454
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 2: Pretty amazing stuff because I'll.

455
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: Tell you, you know, if you need to retrain your

456
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 1: brain after you know, a stroke or something, we have

457
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 1: the ability to do that. Thank you so much for

458
00:30:56,360 --> 00:31:00,080
Speaker 1: being here. When we come back, traveling by plane and

459
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 1: it's challenging right now, the partial shutdown of the government,

460
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 1: which includes TSA agents who are not getting paid right

461
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 1: now calling in sick. Who's to blame here? We're gonna

462
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 1: talk about that and how do we fix it.

463
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 2: I am Donna D.

464
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 1: And you are listening to seven hundred WLW Cincinnati. Maybe

465
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: you don't know me.

466
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 7: Cut your day.

467
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 2: Who and we're back.

468
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 1: It's Donna D here. I'm so excited Opening Day coming

469
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 1: up on Thursday. Chick Lodwig's gonna break it down. It's

470
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: six basically six to midnight tonight. He's gonna be on

471
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 1: with me right around the five thirty hour to talk

472
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: about favorite moments of Opening Day.

473
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 2: I got a good one. We're gonna talk about that

474
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 2: in a little bit.

475
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 1: If you've been traveling by plane lately, you know this.

476
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 1: There's challenges, canceled flights, delays, long lines at TSA. It's

477
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 1: kind of a mess right now with the partial shutdown

478
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 1: of the government, which also includes the DSA agents who

479
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 1: are not getting paid right now, so many of them

480
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 1: are calling in sick and you can definitely tell. I mean,

481
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: the major airports are really really bad, like Atlanta, La,

482
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 1: New York, Dallas and so on. I just went from

483
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 1: CBG to Salt Lake City to Sacramento. My flight was

484
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: delayed three hours. We had coworkers coming in from Iowa

485
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: that couldn't get a flight, so they couldn't even make

486
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: it to our team meeting and things like that. But

487
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: you know, many flights delayed, canceled, long lines.

488
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 2: Who do we blame for this?

489
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: Right five one, three, seven, four nine, seven thousand, one

490
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: eight hundred The big one? Is it the TSA agents

491
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: that are calling in sick? Should they still make it

492
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 1: to work even though they're not getting paid? Is it

493
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: our politicians that don't seem to be able to work together.

494
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: We're so divided and it doesn't look like this is

495
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 1: to be fixed anytime soon.

496
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 2: So is this okay with us?

497
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,960
Speaker 1: Is it our president who is responsible for setting the

498
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 1: tone for the country, or should we blame the American

499
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: people for accepting this type of behavior from our elected officials.

500
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 1: There's three hundred and what sixty million of us should

501
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 1: we be demanding in what we want, how we're taking

502
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 1: care of I just saw somebody on a plane going

503
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 1: to Florida. They're on the tarmac. Can you imagine sitting

504
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 1: on a plane for eight to ten hours just sitting there.

505
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe we do what this airline pilot suggests,

506
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 1: we do play the clip.

507
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 8: I don't really care what.

508
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 7: Your bultuicum persuasion is, and you should really call your

509
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 7: senator thincause I'll tell you this is costing the airlines

510
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 7: millions of dollars. I just think a thirty airplace with

511
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 7: one engine running, it's going to take at least ninety

512
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 7: minutes to take off.

513
00:33:59,000 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 9: So it's frustrating.

514
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:04,239
Speaker 7: It's really frustrating for me because right now it's going

515
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 7: to cost about two hours of our lives on the

516
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,879
Speaker 7: ground before we even take off, spend all that gas,

517
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 7: all that money, and it just rolls into the.

518
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 8: Rest of the system.

519
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 7: So right now we're at a four percent reduction in

520
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 7: flight capacity.

521
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:20,320
Speaker 8: Next week we go to tam.

522
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,839
Speaker 7: Last night I had a six hour delay and use

523
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 7: people and the weather was perfect just because the airtraffic controllers.

524
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 6: Aren't getting paid.

525
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:34,279
Speaker 1: So the air traffic controllers are not getting paid and

526
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 1: we're wasting gas, time, money, everything. The airline pilots are frustrated,

527
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 1: the flight attendants are frustrated, the people flying are frustrated.

528
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: Five one three, seven, four nine seven. I want you

529
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 1: to weigh in here. What do we do about this?

530
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: What about our politicians that we cannot get them to

531
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 1: work together? We do about the rising gas prices? In fact,

532
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:06,800
Speaker 1: the rising prices on everything? What do we do about healthcare?

533
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on holding our politicians accountable?

534
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 2: And how do we do it?

535
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 1: Let's get to Kurt from Madisonville. Kurt, what are your

536
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 1: thoughts on this?

537
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:18,319
Speaker 10: Hey?

538
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 11: Donald, So this is uh, strictly the Democrats shutting this

539
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 11: thing down, trying to play the way home the other party.

540
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 12: I mean, it's just dating.

541
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 1: Tell me why you why do you think it's the

542
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: Democrats fault? Because they they don't want to agree to

543
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 1: the voter ID, and they don't.

544
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 11: Want to agree ID. They don't want to reach Saint

545
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 11: Guards on Holy citizens ut voting. I mean, you know,

546
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 11: they're more concerned about the illegals in this country than

547
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,320
Speaker 11: they are the actual American people. And if they have

548
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 11: to make the American people suffer and to get what

549
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,920
Speaker 11: they want, than they are willing to do that in

550
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:02,799
Speaker 11: this discussment.

551
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 2: Okay, so let me ask you this, Kurt.

552
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,920
Speaker 1: If you're saying it's all about the Democrats, and because

553
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: the Democrats are blaming the Republicans, the Republicans are blaming

554
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 1: the Democrats, how do we come together to be able

555
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: to fix this in terms of the voter registration and

556
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,799
Speaker 1: having to show ID and things like that. It's never

557
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 1: been in this country and there aren't any real reasons

558
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,800
Speaker 1: to show. At least nobody has shown that there is

559
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 1: voter fraud on a widespread So they're they're causing a

560
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 1: problem where there isn't one. That's the argument from the Democrats.

561
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 11: That's the argument, But then again they're not looking forward

562
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 11: to either. Well, if you pay attention with the names

563
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 11: every day, there's more more cases of it that are

564
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 11: are coming to light.

565
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 1: Kurt, I really appreciate you weighing in here. I want

566
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 1: you to call in five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven,

567
00:36:58,600 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: eight hundred, the big one.

568
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 2: What do we do about this? Because there's there's.

569
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 1: Three hundred and fifty three hundred and sixty million Americans

570
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,840
Speaker 1: and our government doesn't seem to be working on the

571
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 1: issues that we really need. TSA and being able to fly,

572
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:16,680
Speaker 1: and gas prices and every kind of price up. There

573
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:20,200
Speaker 1: are important things to the American people, and we've got

574
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,280
Speaker 1: to be able to work together to solve the problem.

575
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,399
Speaker 2: Kurt, I really appreciate it. Thank you so much.

576
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 13: Yeah, A good beg you too.

577
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 1: Hey, Brian, let's get to Brian from Eastgate. Brian, what

578
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 1: are your thoughts on this?

579
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 10: But you're not gonna like it because I'm conservative and

580
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 10: I know wean the other way, but you know, we

581
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 10: voted Trump in as the president. He's trying to do

582
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,320
Speaker 10: the things he said that he was going to do

583
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 10: when he was campaigning. I mean, he said he wanted

584
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 10: to get rid of the immigrants, and I'm all for

585
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 10: that every same world. I don't care however they got

586
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 10: to do it. They I mean, they really don't have

587
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 10: any rights here. They're here illegally. Get them out, and

588
00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 10: we basnally got to do it. Do it, you know,

589
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 10: I mean, it doesn't matter. And the Democrats just want

590
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 10: to create any thought anytime Trump wants to do anything,

591
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 10: the Democrats don't block it, and for whatever reason, it

592
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 10: doesn't even matter. They're just going to do because that's

593
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:14,920
Speaker 10: that's where we are in this country. Guy, They're going

594
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 10: to do things whether it hurts the American people or not.

595
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 10: I don't think Trump does anything.

596
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 9: To hurt American people.

597
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 10: I think he does everything he does tries to just

598
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 10: either build confidence in elections. I don't see any problem

599
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,799
Speaker 10: with showing an id show my idea all the time,

600
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 10: you know all the.

601
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 1: Time, you mean for voting, showing your ideas anything.

602
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,839
Speaker 9: I just put money on my vemo cord andswer my idea.

603
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,319
Speaker 9: I mean, it's facillious things. So why is it one

604
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 9: of the most important things that we do vote? I

605
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 9: understand he said, well, they didn't show any proof of

606
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 9: voter fraud. Trump won a twenty twenty election. It was

607
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 9: so obvious. But I'm not going to get into that.

608
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,400
Speaker 9: That's my feelings. I'll never be able to have anybody

609
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 9: change my mind on that. And it all comes to

610
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 9: likes to later.

611
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,439
Speaker 1: But Brian, so what I'm so, instead of like, let's

612
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 1: let's forget about blame and how do we fix it?

613
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:09,399
Speaker 1: You think Democrats just need to sign this bill.

614
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 10: Yeah, we just need to wipe them off the kick

615
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:16,719
Speaker 10: them out of Congress. Look, you guys aren't trying to

616
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 10: do anything helpful. You're just trying to hurt everybody, and

617
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:20,359
Speaker 10: that some bottom line.

618
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:20,840
Speaker 9: I feel like that.

619
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 10: I feel like that.

620
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 2: Well, I'm just reading, Brian. I'm just reading Fox News.

621
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:31,239
Speaker 1: Special counsel Robert Muller is just passed away at the

622
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: age of eighty one.

623
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 2: I'm seeing breaking news right now.

624
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: Former special counsel Robert Muller has died at the age

625
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: of eighty one. Wow. Just seeing that, Brian. I hated

626
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 1: to interrupt you on that, but I understand. Listen, you

627
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: and I may be more aligned than you think. I

628
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 1: know you're saying. I lean the other way. I lean

629
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,360
Speaker 1: for what is good for America. I lean for what

630
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: we can do to help people and support people in

631
00:39:58,320 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 1: being able to Because I fly alot.

632
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:01,879
Speaker 2: I have another job in I fly law.

633
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,800
Speaker 1: Getting on planes and being able to get there on

634
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 1: time and not having gas prices. That's going to raise

635
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 1: up costs of groceries, pet food, you name it. Everything

636
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 1: is more and more expensive. I know Trump ran on

637
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 1: that it's not happening. He ran on no. I know

638
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 1: you mentioned quite a few things on what Trump did.

639
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,239
Speaker 1: Run on immigration is one we all agreed on. He

640
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:27,839
Speaker 1: ran on no new wars. How do you feel about

641
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 1: the Iran War?

642
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 10: You know what, I don't know how I feel on

643
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 10: that because I don't really know. Every day I get

644
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 10: more confused about things. At one point, I think, you know,

645
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:43,279
Speaker 10: Israel is like an ally and there, you know, were

646
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 10: the good people. And then I hear, no, they're really

647
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 10: trying to take her to the world. You know, there's

648
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 10: a I can't remember his name, he's the next military guy,

649
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 10: and he gets on there ended up saying that the

650
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:58,240
Speaker 10: Holocaust was blowny never happened that Judaeus at doctor nineteen

651
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 10: thirty four, Juida gathered all the Jews that we're going

652
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:05,439
Speaker 10: to take out Germany, and Hitler basically saved Germany from

653
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,800
Speaker 10: you know, it was almost like it was a war basically,

654
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 10: he and that's why all the Jewish people that he

655
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 10: held captive, that's the reason behind that.

656
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:15,760
Speaker 9: And I don't know what to believe anymore.

657
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 1: We know, there's so much conspiracy stuff that it is

658
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:25,240
Speaker 1: extremely confusing. But if somebody is saying the Holocaust didn't exist,

659
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:25,839
Speaker 1: that's weird.

660
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:27,359
Speaker 2: Brian, we know it did.

661
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 8: Okay, I'm telling you, I hear more and more all

662
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 8: the time.

663
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 14: I know I'm saying that that.

664
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 10: You know what, we give Israel eighteen billion dollars a

665
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 10: year for what you know, they live better than we

666
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 10: do while we.

667
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 15: Give the money and you know what they have.

668
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 2: How many people live in Israel? Brian? Now, what's the

669
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 2: population of Israel? Nine million?

670
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:48,480
Speaker 3: Right?

671
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,280
Speaker 1: How many in this country? I don't know, three hundred

672
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 1: and sixty five million. We need money, man, we need

673
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 1: We're like the dude, we need.

674
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:58,960
Speaker 10: Money, and I'm tired of that.

675
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 9: You I'm tired to give it every other country. I mean,

676
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 9: I think we can give it to everybody. Well, travel

677
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 9: around Cincinnati. I get so mad hit and Toddles daily.

678
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, infrastructure, See, Brian, we agree on

679
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,440
Speaker 1: more than you think you do. Listen, thank you so

680
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:22,960
Speaker 1: much for the call. Have a great weekend, great opening

681
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 1: day as well. So Tim, Chris and Diane we're going

682
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,320
Speaker 1: to get to YouTube. What are your thoughts on this?

683
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 2: Five one, three hundred, the big one? What do we

684
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 2: do here?

685
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 5: Right?

686
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 1: If you're somebody that flies on a plane, this is

687
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 1: just one thing that affects me a lot. I fly

688
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 1: usually twice a month. It's delays, it's cancelations. The airlines

689
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,400
Speaker 1: are doing their best, and I just played from a

690
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 1: very frustrated pilot that they're sitting on the tarmac for

691
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 1: two hours with an engine running, which is very expensive

692
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:57,240
Speaker 1: on gas and very very time consuming on these pilots

693
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 1: and flight attendants and the people that are flying for

694
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 1: work and things like that.

695
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 16: What do we do?

696
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 1: How do we get these politicians to stop arguing, stop

697
00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 1: fighting and working for the American people?

698
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 2: Tim in Kenwood, what are your thoughts on this?

699
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:16,520
Speaker 17: Hey, I'm right right there with the last caller, you know.

700
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 8: I think what we really need to.

701
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 10: Do is cut ties with Israel.

702
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 17: Honestly, that's what I believe.

703
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,800
Speaker 18: I believe APAK is way too strong.

704
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 17: They only you know, they spend about one hundred million

705
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 17: dollars on lobbies and our government on both sides of

706
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 17: the aisle, and we give them nineteen billion dollars a year.

707
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 19: It's the best return on investment I've ever heard of

708
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 19: in my life.

709
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 18: Yeah, so I don't appreciate how they treat our military

710
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 18: like it's a part of their arm They want us

711
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,680
Speaker 18: to just eradicate their neighbors, and it costs lives, to

712
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 18: cost money, and we've been doing it and Trump said

713
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:49,400
Speaker 18: he wouldn't gone to.

714
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 17: Do it, but he did it and we're still there.

715
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,360
Speaker 17: And I just I don't like the ties of this

716
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 17: reel one bit. I want America to be owned by America.

717
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 17: I want our banks and our money to be owned

718
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 17: by Americans, and they're not. And you know, I think

719
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,279
Speaker 17: there's a time to come stand up for America when

720
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:08,000
Speaker 17: that when Israel is way too ingrained in the DNA.

721
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 8: Of our of our of our world.

722
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,920
Speaker 1: I think we're just starting to figure out just how

723
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:17,439
Speaker 1: deep apac apak is with our politicians. I know I'm

724
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 1: because of the Iran war and it was led by Israel.

725
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:24,320
Speaker 1: That's what many people suggested and have suggested it and

726
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: continue to suggest.

727
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 8: And that's old story.

728
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 19: After you understand weapons of mass destruction.

729
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 15: Right, weapons of mass destruction, right, all.

730
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 19: These different things.

731
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 17: I don't like being led around by a news where

732
00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 17: they don't they don't seem to start the problem they

733
00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:39,600
Speaker 17: want us to finish.

734
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:39,719
Speaker 10: You.

735
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,759
Speaker 17: I mean, we're given nineteen billion to a country that's

736
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:44,440
Speaker 17: as big as a you know what, New Jersey?

737
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 2: Yes, what's wrong here?

738
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,320
Speaker 1: And on top of which, how much is the Iran

739
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: war costing per day? I think it's one point one billion.

740
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:53,320
Speaker 1: It's a lot for nothing.

741
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 17: You have that issue, right, Yeah, we're paying for their

742
00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:59,919
Speaker 17: that's over there. We're paying for their schools, we invest

743
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 17: and their kids when they have the births. Yet over

744
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:06,400
Speaker 17: here we have a giant campaign funded by Israel to

745
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 17: aboard a bunch of kids here.

746
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:10,200
Speaker 10: So it's I don't know, I.

747
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:10,920
Speaker 19: Don't know, I don't like it.

748
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 1: Well, Tim, I really appreciate the call, and I think

749
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:16,160
Speaker 1: a lot of people are kind of aligning by what

750
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:17,760
Speaker 1: you're just saying on Israel.

751
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:19,480
Speaker 2: I really appreciate it. Thank you so much.

752
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:20,839
Speaker 10: Yeah.

753
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:24,319
Speaker 1: Absolutely, Hey, let's go to Chris real quick in Williamsburg.

754
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 1: Chris and Robin will get to you, hopefully before the break. Chris,

755
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on this?

756
00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 20: Well, first of all, I'm not sure why everybody's talking

757
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:34,960
Speaker 20: about Israel all of a sudden. I thought we were

758
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 20: talking about trying to solve the problems of what's going

759
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 20: on here with the Democrats and Republicans battling back and forth, and.

760
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 11: It seems like a separate issue.

761
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 2: Jabe, what do you think?

762
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you think of how do we get

763
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 1: together to fix the problems for us, for the American people,

764
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:57,520
Speaker 1: the streets, the roads, the bridges, the airlines right now,

765
00:45:57,719 --> 00:45:59,680
Speaker 1: gas prices, healthcare, you name it.

766
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 20: Well, obviously we need to get back to common sense,

767
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 20: but I don't know how to get us there. You know,

768
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 20: I think all of your callers have pretty much been

769
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 20: agreed across the board that you know, allowing illegals to

770
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 20: come in, which is what the Democrats want and almost

771
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 20: latantly and openly is not what the rest of us want,

772
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:26,399
Speaker 20: you know, so that can't go on, and the transgender ism,

773
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 20: and you know, allowing children to be maimed and drawn

774
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:35,279
Speaker 20: down the list. I just think what was common sense twenty.

775
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:38,279
Speaker 8: Years ago is what they pushed for, and it's ridiculous.

776
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 19: But how to change it.

777
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,719
Speaker 20: If somebody had a solution, I guess we would know

778
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 20: what it was. I mean, we need term limits. We

779
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 20: need to get new term limits.

780
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 1: Absolutely totally agree term limits because that way that these

781
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 1: politicians are not career politicians and they don't give in

782
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:58,320
Speaker 1: to the lobbyists and they start doing things. If everyone

783
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 1: had four to eight years, I think think that they

784
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,400
Speaker 1: would do more for the American people and not worry

785
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:07,040
Speaker 1: about getting re elected constantly. Chris, thanks so much. We

786
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:09,440
Speaker 1: are up against the wall. We've just got about thirty seconds.

787
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:13,360
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Robin Dick Moore on this We're gonna

790
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 1: and take in a few more calls. What do we

791
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,200
Speaker 1: do about all this stuff that's going on? TSA, It's

792
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 1: gonna get worse before it gets better. If you're flying

793
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:34,319
Speaker 1: on spring break, you're going anywhere in this country, it's

794
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,759
Speaker 1: gonna be tough to catch your plane, to catch your

795
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:41,959
Speaker 1: long lines. So we're gonna be back right after News,

00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 1: Weather and Traffic with Brady Hopkins.

797

Speaker 2: I am Donna Dee producing the show.

798
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 1: Drew Western Heidi on seven hundred WLW Cincinnati The Girl.

799
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 21: But I don't middy, it's just EDDI to Letty keep

800
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:58,320
Speaker 21: me involved in that, he said, She said, kraud, no body.

801
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 7: Perfect cross those believe Songica.

802
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:06,720
Speaker 15: A lot of people get their kicks talking trash about America.

803
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 1: That just goes to show how ignorant they are. Someone

804
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:10,279
Speaker 1: needs to sit their butts down and give them a

805
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:12,080
Speaker 1: good solid dose of Bill Cunningham.

806
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 18: Willie will teach them how lucky they are to be American.

807
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,759
Speaker 10: Do they really think it's better in Russia? Hell?

808
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:19,880
Speaker 15: No, better in Haiti?

809
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:20,959
Speaker 2: No one wants to be in Haiti.

810
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:21,840
Speaker 10: Better in Canada.

811
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:22,960
Speaker 2: I don't want poutine.

812
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:27,200
Speaker 1: I want Bill Cunningham. He's a great American America.

813
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:28,320
Speaker 15: Bill Cunningham.

814
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:32,720
Speaker 13: Monday at twelve noon on seven hundred WL.

815
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:39,440
Speaker 15: Ryan Reynolds here for Midmobile. I don't know if you

816
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:40,800
Speaker 15: knew this dune.

817
00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:45,200
Speaker 1: Sunny High have seventy one thunderstorms, Tomorrow High have eighty one,

818
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 1: I believe, and then back in the fifties, Mondays and Tuesday.

819
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,839
Speaker 1: Before we get into this crazy documentary on Netflix called

820
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: Into the Manisphere, let's take a few more calls, because

821
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:00,640
Speaker 1: Robin and Michael, you've been holding on for so long.

822
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,640
Speaker 1: We're talking about the challenges we face in this country.

823
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 1: Airline travel is not fun right now. I just got

824
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 1: back from a business trip to Sacramento. Four planes, two

825
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:19,320
Speaker 1: different airports, long lines, delayed flights, canceled flights. Who's to

826
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 1: blame here? Is it the TSA agents that are calling

827
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:27,840
Speaker 1: in sick because they're not getting paid? Is it our politicians?

828
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 1: How do we solve the divide with the RS blame

829
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:37,759
Speaker 1: blaming the these and the d's blaming the RS. How

830
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 1: do we get through this in order to support us,

831
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: the American people who are working so hard and just

832
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:49,160
Speaker 1: trying to get around with flying in this country and

833
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 1: otherwise driving flying. We talked about roads, We talked about

834
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:59,800
Speaker 1: you know, everything costing so much. Robin from Hamilton Township,

835
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on this?

836
00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 5: Hey, Donna. I know you travel around for work and

837
00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:13,799
Speaker 5: the PSA is working without money. I just wonder would

838
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 5: you travel around if you weren't getting paid. And I

839
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:22,800
Speaker 5: think that people that don't need to go anywhere shouldn't

840
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:26,759
Speaker 5: even be flying. Business is different, but I think that

841
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 5: would make a big difference. And I've been listening a while,

842
00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:34,800
Speaker 5: and I think that people that don't understand what's happening

843
00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 5: need to view the video that was taken on October

844
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:44,720
Speaker 5: seventh when Iran came into a peaceful event in Israel

845
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:51,560
Speaker 5: and did horrific, unbelievable things to the human beings there.

846
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:55,920
Speaker 5: And I think that as a society we need to

847
00:50:56,360 --> 00:51:01,800
Speaker 5: respect and understand what's happening. And people don't have to

848
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 5: go on spring break, they can stay home and play

849
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:10,799
Speaker 5: monopoly and let this thing resolve because the Democrats are

850
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:14,040
Speaker 5: not going to do it and Trump is trying to

851
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 5: save America.

852
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:16,759
Speaker 13: I truly believe that.

853
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:20,240
Speaker 1: Well, Robin, first, well to answer that, yeah, to answer

854
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:23,040
Speaker 1: the questionable around like you are.

855
00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:25,680
Speaker 5: If you weren't going to get paid, probably got there.

856
00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 5: Probably we could give them a break if we didn't

857
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:33,919
Speaker 5: have to go anywhere. Now I'm not saying you don't

858
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 5: have to go anywhere because you're going somewhere. You need

859
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:42,000
Speaker 5: a plane and you're getting paid. But those TSA agents

860
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:44,800
Speaker 5: that are showing up are not getting paid.

861
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:45,320
Speaker 12: No I know.

862
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:48,920
Speaker 1: But what happened is no I know. And what happened

863
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,959
Speaker 1: is last time. And you're right, that's a good question.

864
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:53,880
Speaker 1: Would I show up for work, Probably not, But they

865
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:58,640
Speaker 1: did get a big bonus after the last government shutdown.

866
00:51:58,640 --> 00:51:59,440
Speaker 2: I mean, we all have to.

867
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,320
Speaker 1: This is so stressful for all of us. Right, do

868
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:06,560
Speaker 1: we need to be in another or in the Middle East? Robin?

869
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 2: I mean, is this something I know that is horrible?

870
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:13,799
Speaker 5: If we don't want I suggest that we don't want

871
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 5: what to happen, what happened in Israel to happen on

872
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 5: our homeland, in our homes, in our communities. It is

873
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:27,840
Speaker 5: unbelievable if you haven't viewed that. Anybody that hasn't viewed

874
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,440
Speaker 5: that needs to see what happened. And I know it's

875
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,920
Speaker 5: to watch that without losing your mind.

876
00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure, Robin, thank you so much for the call.

877
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:42,160
Speaker 1: And believe me, listen, there's bad players a lot in

878
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:46,279
Speaker 1: this country and and also in the world. Israel has

879
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: done some terrible things around the Middle East. Is just

880
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 1: it's just kind of a mess. And why are we

881
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:57,840
Speaker 1: there again? I mean, we should learn the lessons from Iraq.

882
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 1: We've been through this before. Let's get to Michael, who's

883
00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:03,880
Speaker 1: been holding on for a while in Eastgate. Michael, what

884
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,800
Speaker 1: are your thoughts here? What do we do about all this?

885
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,880
Speaker 19: Hi, first time caller here. I appreciate you taking a

886
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 19: far as getting DHS opened up. I think you know

887
00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:18,879
Speaker 19: both sides need to negotiate. It seems to me from

888
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 19: what I've heard, Republicans have come to the table to

889
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:27,160
Speaker 19: negotiate some of these issues with ICE and their structure

890
00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:33,239
Speaker 19: and their practices. However, the number one issue is the

891
00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:40,520
Speaker 19: sanctuary cities. If they Republicans come and say eliminate the sanctuary.

892
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:44,400
Speaker 8: Cities, then we will allow all the.

893
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:49,640
Speaker 19: ICE agents to have proper identification, be unmasked, and all

894
00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,040
Speaker 19: the things that they're fighting for, and we won't have

895
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:54,440
Speaker 19: any of these issues. There won't be fights out on

896
00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:58,880
Speaker 19: the street, there won't be protests because nine of the

897
00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,480
Speaker 19: removals are going to come right from the detention centers

898
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:05,160
Speaker 19: and no one's going to see anything, just like has

899
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:06,760
Speaker 19: gone on for the last twenty years.

900
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 1: Well, Michael, listen, I appreciate, I appreciate your call, and

901
00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:14,359
Speaker 1: that your first time caller, and please continue to call

902
00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:20,359
Speaker 1: in the The idea of compromise is a lovely thing.

903
00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:24,560
Speaker 1: Right to get dhs open. Like we're flying, we need

904
00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:28,840
Speaker 1: we need our our our air traffic controllers. We have

905
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:31,960
Speaker 1: to have these people in order to continue to make

906
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:37,080
Speaker 1: the world go around. If there's voter ID issues that

907
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:41,120
Speaker 1: the Dems are saying, it's the Republican's fault. Republicans are saying,

908
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:43,319
Speaker 1: is the DEM's fault.

909
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:44,520
Speaker 2: How do we get there?

910
00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:45,839
Speaker 1: How do we well?

911
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:46,399
Speaker 9: I don't think.

912
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:50,000
Speaker 19: I don't think the Save Act really has anything to

913
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:54,960
Speaker 19: do with the Department of Homeland Security shutdown. I think

914
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:58,879
Speaker 19: they're two separate issues. I think obviously the Save Act,

915
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:01,960
Speaker 19: you know, if common sense that people need to use

916
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:07,440
Speaker 19: a driver's license to vote. This is not you know, crazy,

917
00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:13,239
Speaker 19: you know, right wing conservative idealism. This is common sense.

918
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:16,319
Speaker 19: But as far as the DHS, that's the one that's

919
00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:19,400
Speaker 19: really more pressing, I think, And you know.

920
00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:21,400
Speaker 2: The ICE agents and things like that.

921
00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:28,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, DHS, it's there's a there's a handful of things

922
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:33,560
Speaker 1: in this bill that neither the Republicans are saying you

923
00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:35,200
Speaker 1: have to sign this or the government is going to

924
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:36,319
Speaker 1: continue to be shut down.

925
00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:37,479
Speaker 2: That's what they're saying.

926
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,719
Speaker 1: It's ice, it's funding ice, ice agents and things like that,

927
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:43,040
Speaker 1: not wearing masks.

928
00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:46,800
Speaker 2: There's quite a few things in there. Plus you know,

929
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:48,720
Speaker 2: ts a right.

930
00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:50,320
Speaker 19: But I think the Say Act is kind of a

931
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:53,200
Speaker 19: separate issue. But yes, they need to negotiating. It's really

932
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:57,440
Speaker 19: a sad state of affairs when we have elected politicians

933
00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:01,400
Speaker 19: making several hundreds of thousands of dollars and they can't

934
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:05,239
Speaker 19: sit together in a room like adults and work some

935
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:10,560
Speaker 19: of these very common ideas out. And you know, it's

936
00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:12,799
Speaker 19: saying I've never been through this, and I don't think

937
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:15,480
Speaker 19: any of us have been through quite the dissent in

938
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:17,279
Speaker 19: politics that we're going through right now.

939
00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:20,879
Speaker 1: What do you think about term limits, because the last

940
00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:21,799
Speaker 1: caller brought that up.

941
00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:23,400
Speaker 2: Wouldn't a lot of this be.

942
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:27,879
Speaker 1: Taken care of if somebody, if you couldn't have these

943
00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:33,640
Speaker 1: long thirty year terms for senators and congressmen.

944
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:35,600
Speaker 2: That they they really try.

945
00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:39,759
Speaker 1: And I think most people get into politics to do

946
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:43,080
Speaker 1: good and then they get in there and they get

947
00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:47,480
Speaker 1: lobbied by so many people and they have to fundraise constantly,

948
00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:51,440
Speaker 1: and they're always they're always, you know, trying to get

949
00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 1: re elected constantly.

950
00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:55,680
Speaker 2: Do you think term limits would solve some of this?

951
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,800
Speaker 19: I do, And I think some glaring examples of that

952
00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:04,200
Speaker 19: would be Mitch McConnell up, Nancy Pelosi.

953
00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:07,560
Speaker 2: Yep, Diane Seinstein, Diane fine.

954
00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:11,480
Speaker 1: Sign, anybody that's been over with That's right.

955
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,239
Speaker 2: I couldn't agree more. Michael, thank you so much, Please

956
00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:15,759
Speaker 2: call again.

957
00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 19: Well do thanks for having me.

958
00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 2: We're going to get to.

959
00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:21,120
Speaker 1: One last caller on this, Susan from Covington. You've been

960
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:23,240
Speaker 1: waiting a little bit. What are your thoughts on this?

961
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:24,280
Speaker 1: And then I'm going to move on.

962
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:29,960
Speaker 13: Well, my thoughts are we have a constitution that is

963
00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:34,080
Speaker 13: the foundation of our country, and I think that the

964
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:38,400
Speaker 13: legislative branch was set up with two parties for them

965
00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:42,720
Speaker 13: to work problems out. So that's their job, that is

966
00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:43,240
Speaker 13: their job.

967
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,440
Speaker 1: Are they doing a good job, Susan.

968
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:51,160
Speaker 13: No, because I thinking back, we've been faced with threats

969
00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:55,000
Speaker 13: of government shutdown for the last twenty years. Yes, yes,

970
00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:58,680
Speaker 13: And I have been saying the last four years we

971
00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:03,440
Speaker 13: have been going to instance, uh dam sizing or mental

972
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:10,560
Speaker 13: going downward instead of moving forward. Yeah, we've dommed down

973
00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 13: beyond belief.

974
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:12,800
Speaker 2: I couldn't agree more.

975
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:17,480
Speaker 1: And you know we we here's what they do, right, politicians,

976
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:23,000
Speaker 1: They get us heated right from culture wars like you know, uh,

977
00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:24,640
Speaker 1: transgender sports.

978
00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:27,680
Speaker 2: I'm not for that either. I think I think that

979
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:28,280
Speaker 2: that's silly.

980
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:31,840
Speaker 1: But it's such a minute Uh, it's such a minute

981
00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 1: issue that you know, when you fly on an airplane,

982
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:37,600
Speaker 1: you want to get there and not be canceled twice

983
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:41,400
Speaker 1: and not be delayed for eight hours on the tarmac

984
00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 1: and not have you know, gas prices going up and everything.

985
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:48,800
Speaker 1: Those are the things really we all care about. And

986
00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,080
Speaker 1: if they can't work things out, we need to. We

987
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 1: need to fire these politicians that can't work together, we

988
00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:56,400
Speaker 1: really do.

989
00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:58,200
Speaker 2: We need to hold them accountable.

990
00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:02,800
Speaker 13: I'm off god, Susan, I'm getting all I've said that

991
00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:05,760
Speaker 13: for the last several months. Is we need to just

992
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:09,600
Speaker 13: re elect, not reelect any of them. Start new, and

993
00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:13,560
Speaker 13: I'm going to start. I'm a registered Democrat. I don't

994
00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:16,920
Speaker 13: think I've ever voted until the last fifteen years the

995
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:20,320
Speaker 13: Street Demostocratic ticket. And I said there would be a

996
00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:23,880
Speaker 13: cold a you know where before I vote for Thomas

997
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 13: Massey and Rand Paul. But I'm telling you right now,

998
00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:30,360
Speaker 13: I am going to vote for Thomas Massey.

999
00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 1: They're moderates.

1000
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 13: Now, anybody else they.

1001
00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:37,680
Speaker 1: See moderate, they see moderate compared to you know other ones.

1002
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:43,000
Speaker 1: It is in the Democratic Party as well, Democrats and Republicans.

1003
00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:47,240
Speaker 1: It's the far right right right and the far left

1004
00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:50,560
Speaker 1: left left. They're both the same thing. I mean, I

1005
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:53,080
Speaker 1: think most of us want to meet in the middle here.

1006
00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:57,760
Speaker 13: Right, and they're the products of the dumbing down that

1007
00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:00,920
Speaker 13: we've gone through the last forty years. My father and

1008
01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:04,680
Speaker 13: three uncles fond in World War Two. My father was

1009
01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:09,280
Speaker 13: with one of the units that liberated Decau prison and

1010
01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:13,160
Speaker 13: when he also the groups that went into Berlin said

1011
01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:15,920
Speaker 13: the one that damned German to be seen or Nazi

1012
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,920
Speaker 13: to be seen anywhere. But they went through and did

1013
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:23,800
Speaker 13: sweeps of the apartments of the German officers, and he

1014
01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:28,520
Speaker 13: brought home four photographs or three little photographs at the

1015
01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:33,480
Speaker 13: time of trenches pulled bodies land next to each other.

1016
01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:36,200
Speaker 13: So you can't tell me there was no Holocaust.

1017
01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:39,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. That was from a previous caller that

1018
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:40,160
Speaker 2: said that.

1019
01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:41,000
Speaker 13: I heard that.

1020
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:44,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that he was concerned that maybe because people are

1021
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:46,680
Speaker 1: starting to say there was no Holocaust and there was.

1022
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:48,400
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, let's not.

1023
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:51,439
Speaker 13: Get in their part. Yeah, they're part of the group

1024
01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:54,600
Speaker 13: that's been dummed down through this to the last twenty years.

1025
01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:57,480
Speaker 1: Susan, listen, I appreciate the call.

1026
01:00:57,840 --> 01:01:01,120
Speaker 2: Please call me back again. I love your I really do,

1027
01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:02,280
Speaker 2: thank you so much.

1028
01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:05,640
Speaker 1: All Right, I'm going to move on because I want

1029
01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:09,520
Speaker 1: to talk about this documentary I saw on Netflix as

1030
01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,560
Speaker 1: Louis Thureau Inside the Manisphere.

1031
01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:15,080
Speaker 2: So just to give you, just to give you a

1032
01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:15,800
Speaker 2: highlight of it.

1033
01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:18,320
Speaker 1: It's kind of crazy and I would love your thoughts

1034
01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:22,120
Speaker 1: if you've seen this documentary five one, three, seven, four, nine,

1035
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:24,920
Speaker 1: eight hundred, the Big One. I really do want to

1036
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:27,880
Speaker 1: hear if you've seen it, what do you think about it?

1037
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:31,240
Speaker 1: But in a nutshell, there's a group of men online

1038
01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:36,520
Speaker 1: basically preaching toxics, toxic masculinity, that's what they're calling it,

1039
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 1: or another way to say. It was pretty heavy in misogyny.

1040
01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:47,200
Speaker 1: They kind of dictate these group of men, what where, why,

1041
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,480
Speaker 1: how in their relationships. They feel like they can have

1042
01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:55,240
Speaker 1: multiple wives and women and their women should be faithful

1043
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:59,400
Speaker 1: to them. It was interesting because you know, they talk

1044
01:01:59,440 --> 01:02:02,920
Speaker 1: about family values and stuff like that, but they're all

1045
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:06,200
Speaker 1: taking videos with women in g strings and things like that.

1046
01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:10,280
Speaker 1: Louis Thereaux, who's a British reporter, basically asked them simple

1047
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:13,560
Speaker 1: questions and you know they felt like this was going

1048
01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,720
Speaker 1: to be a hit piece or you know. His questions

1049
01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:21,240
Speaker 1: were something like, you know, can you be a little

1050
01:02:21,240 --> 01:02:24,240
Speaker 1: bit more moral? Let's play the clip, drew and and

1051
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:25,960
Speaker 1: talk after the clip.

1052
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:36,240
Speaker 15: Woman that I'm with she doesn't talk to them.

1053
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:40,960
Speaker 2: So I do want to get them multiple wives, but

1054
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 2: right now I'm just.

1055
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 10: Like focusing on like building things up.

1056
01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:48,240
Speaker 19: Well they do what tet to your name on, probably

1057
01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:50,080
Speaker 19: because I saw it all my my wife.

1058
01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:55,400
Speaker 5: Studies show that women absorb and retain the DNA of

1059
01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:57,080
Speaker 5: every man they've been with via spur.

1060
01:02:57,800 --> 01:02:59,400
Speaker 2: This foreign DNA has been found in the.

1061
01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:02,880
Speaker 17: Well did you say the last time I checked, it

1062
01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 17: was well over thirty thirty eight million.

1063
01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:11,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so that was a kind of a hard

1064
01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:17,600
Speaker 1: clip to hear. But I basically these guys are have

1065
01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:21,200
Speaker 1: a group of young boys that pay attention to everything

1066
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:23,960
Speaker 1: they do, and they're pretty hard on women, like you

1067
01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:27,920
Speaker 1: should be quiet, you should stay home, you should clean.

1068
01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm allowed to do what I want, and you know

1069
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:35,240
Speaker 1: that those are the rules. And I can have as

1070
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,600
Speaker 1: many women as I want. All I have to do

1071
01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:40,640
Speaker 1: is make money and take care of you. And do

1072
01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:45,600
Speaker 1: they really want this? Is this what men really want

1073
01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:50,600
Speaker 1: versus having a real relationship five one three seven nine,

1074
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:54,040
Speaker 1: seven thousand, one eight hundred the big one? For instance,

1075
01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:57,440
Speaker 1: when men pay for everything, right, Because it's not just

1076
01:03:57,640 --> 01:03:59,880
Speaker 1: men here, I'm just using this as an example the

1077
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:06,760
Speaker 1: Inside the Manisphere, which is a crazy documentary, But when

1078
01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:11,560
Speaker 1: men pay for everything and the woman has a job

1079
01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 1: and she can pay for stuff too, when they pay

1080
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:15,840
Speaker 1: the bills and they pay for the dinners and they

1081
01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:17,880
Speaker 1: pay for the trips. I mean, I have a very

1082
01:04:17,960 --> 01:04:20,880
Speaker 1: good friend who does this. He pays for everything, and

1083
01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:25,400
Speaker 1: you know what he resents it. He's told me that

1084
01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:29,480
Speaker 1: he has he resents it for having to pay for everything.

1085
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:31,560
Speaker 1: But he does he does it?

1086
01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:35,480
Speaker 2: Why do they do that? It's not going to be a.

1087
01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:40,720
Speaker 1: Good relationship if it's not an equal partnership. I mean

1088
01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:45,600
Speaker 1: it balances out. Sometimes I pay, sometimes my partner pays, right.

1089
01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:49,160
Speaker 1: I mean I also like a man to be a man.

1090
01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:51,160
Speaker 1: I like for them to open the car door. I

1091
01:04:51,360 --> 01:04:53,000
Speaker 1: like for them to open the door. I like for

1092
01:04:53,080 --> 01:04:55,920
Speaker 1: them to pay for the first date or things like

1093
01:04:56,040 --> 01:05:02,480
Speaker 1: that when we go out. But the toxic masculinity or

1094
01:05:02,600 --> 01:05:06,320
Speaker 1: the inside the manisphere of being the boss and having

1095
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:09,200
Speaker 1: someone basically not talk back to you, not say anything,

1096
01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:11,640
Speaker 1: not have an opinion, that doesn't work out.

1097
01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:14,800
Speaker 2: Five one, three hundred, the big one.

01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:26,800
Speaker 1: inside and out. We're going to get into that exercise

01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:18,800
Speaker 1: Tony from Westchester. The toxic masculinity that is expressed openly

1112
01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:21,880
Speaker 1: in this documentary. I don't know if you've watched it

1113
01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:25,880
Speaker 1: on Netflix, but they are adapting to this broad base,

1114
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:29,960
Speaker 1: appealing to this broad base of young boys around thirteen

1115
01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:33,080
Speaker 1: years old that you know watch their online shows and

1116
01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:37,040
Speaker 1: they talk to and about women pretty horrifying. What are

1117
01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:40,040
Speaker 1: your thoughts on this, Tony? And have you watched the

1118
01:06:40,240 --> 01:06:41,200
Speaker 1: new documentary?

01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:48,960
Speaker 16: I have not been able to watch it, but there is.

1120
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:55,000
Speaker 10: These young men me do.

1121
01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:01,680
Speaker 16: Look into, not what they hear, but what's out there

1122
01:07:02,640 --> 01:07:07,720
Speaker 16: for their brains. South. There's another reason why I'm calling

Speaker 16: Thank you for a long time. Now I'm going to

1132
01:07:42,320 --> 01:07:46,360
Speaker 16: go to where you was asking a question about a man.

1133
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:49,000
Speaker 2: Do they buy multiple women?

1134
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:53,560
Speaker 16: Yes, for forty six years to the same woman, and

1135
01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:56,400
Speaker 16: I would only want one woman.

1136
01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:59,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, good, that's great. I love it.

1137
01:07:59,120 --> 01:08:05,000
Speaker 16: Oh yeah, hell yeah, let me head except Yeah.

1138
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:10,000
Speaker 1: Tony, I appreciate it. You always make me laugh when

1139
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:12,680
Speaker 1: you call it. Really appreciate it. Let's go to Matt

1140
01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:15,600
Speaker 1: and Cincinnati. Matt, how do you feel about this? What

1141
01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:19,720
Speaker 1: is this man isverr thing? What is this toxic masculinity?

1142
01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:22,479
Speaker 1: Is it gonna go well for these guys?

1143
01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 3: Right right?

1144
01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:25,800
Speaker 8: You can, can you guys hear me?

1145
01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:27,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can hear you?

1146
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:29,080
Speaker 8: Hey yeah? No, awesome.

1147
01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:29,439
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1148
01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:32,240
Speaker 8: So, look like I haven't seen that. I haven't seen

1149
01:08:32,320 --> 01:08:34,920
Speaker 8: the series yet. I'm thirty one, and I just kind

1150
01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:38,360
Speaker 8: of want to say, like, I'm one of your more traditional,

1151
01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:42,840
Speaker 8: you know, conservative guys, but I think that anybody that's

1152
01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:47,960
Speaker 8: buying into this manisphere thing that doesn't exist, Like I mean,

1153
01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:49,800
Speaker 8: I think that kind of gives a bad name to

1154
01:08:49,840 --> 01:08:53,720
Speaker 8: people that like actually, I mean I feel really bad

1155
01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 8: for kids that are buying into that, because that's not

1156
01:08:56,520 --> 01:08:59,719
Speaker 8: how this stuff was supposed to be, like it's okay

1157
01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:02,360
Speaker 8: to be more, you know, I want to be the

1158
01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:05,120
Speaker 8: masculine guy to open doors and buy dinners and stuff

1159
01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:06,960
Speaker 8: like that. But it's not it's not cool to be,

1160
01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:10,360
Speaker 8: you know, saying that women should shut up and not

1161
01:09:10,479 --> 01:09:12,600
Speaker 8: do anything like that's not cool. That's not that's not

1162
01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:16,280
Speaker 8: how that's supposed to be. And I, I really I

1163
01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:18,560
Speaker 8: heard you. I don't know why I tuned in on

1164
01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:20,400
Speaker 8: the radio and I just randomly heard that, and I

1165
01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:23,080
Speaker 8: just felt like, you know, I want to just give

1166
01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:25,559
Speaker 8: kind of a public announcement that there are guys out

1167
01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:28,640
Speaker 8: there that are more traditional that don't believe in that,

1168
01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:32,600
Speaker 8: you know what I mean. And I and I think that, like,

1169
01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:34,960
Speaker 8: on the other hand, it gives it a bad name

1170
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:38,080
Speaker 8: because there's this whole other, you know, kind of feminist,

1171
01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:41,280
Speaker 8: like wrong feminism movement that says, you know, all men

1172
01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:43,800
Speaker 8: are this way and all men suck because if they

1173
01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:46,160
Speaker 8: believe in this manisphere, and I just truly don't think

1174
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:46,719
Speaker 8: that exists.

1175
01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:47,120
Speaker 6: I think there.

1176
01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:49,360
Speaker 8: I mean, I have a lot of guy friends, you

1177
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:51,960
Speaker 8: know in Cincinnati, and you know, we we all you know,

1178
01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:55,240
Speaker 8: are trying to be in relationships and I playing guys

1179
01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:56,760
Speaker 8: that have been married and you know that.

1180
01:09:58,360 --> 01:09:58,760
Speaker 10: You can't.

1181
01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:00,519
Speaker 15: That's not real thing.

1182
01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:03,680
Speaker 8: Kids, if you're listening, that's that's not a good way

1183
01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:04,439
Speaker 8: to go about this.

1184
01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:09,439
Speaker 1: But let me, I couldn't agree more. If you don't

1185
01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:12,920
Speaker 1: have a partner, right, then what do you have? I mean,

1186
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:16,200
Speaker 1: there should be equal parts. I just as I don't

1187
01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:18,880
Speaker 1: think so, Matt. I was in the airport. I've been

1188
01:10:18,920 --> 01:10:22,600
Speaker 1: talking about this. I was in the airport uh on Thursday,

1189
01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:29,200
Speaker 1: and and so this man, this older gentleman, he was

1190
01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:31,160
Speaker 1: with his wife. It looked like his wife. I didn't

1191
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:33,599
Speaker 1: know them, but it looked like it. He was carrying

1192
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:38,280
Speaker 1: two of the roller luggages to two of the roller luggages,

1193
01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:40,320
Speaker 1: so he had two and a big bag, and she

1194
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:43,400
Speaker 1: just carried her purse. Now it's a nice thing for

1195
01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:47,080
Speaker 1: him to do, but Matt, I don't think that's good either.

1196
01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:50,000
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want my man to pay for every single

1197
01:10:50,120 --> 01:10:53,840
Speaker 1: thing or carry every single bag and make him uncomfortable.

1198
01:10:54,240 --> 01:10:56,800
Speaker 1: I can carry my own bag and you carry your

1199
01:10:56,880 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 1: own bag. I can pay for things, just as you

1200
01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,880
Speaker 1: can pay for things. I mean, how do you at

1201
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:06,240
Speaker 1: what point? Because if you go either side. I have

1202
01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:09,400
Speaker 1: a friend who pays for everything and he'll top six.

1203
01:11:09,720 --> 01:11:12,240
Speaker 1: I say it's annoying him, And how do you have

1204
01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:13,760
Speaker 1: a real relationship like that?

1205
01:11:15,160 --> 01:11:17,760
Speaker 8: Well, I will say that like it depends on the guy, right,

1206
01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:20,639
Speaker 8: I mean for me, like I find joy in making

1207
01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:24,160
Speaker 8: sure my woman doesn't have to carry those bags, and

1208
01:11:24,439 --> 01:11:26,360
Speaker 8: I find I think that's fun to be like, Oh,

1209
01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:28,160
Speaker 8: I'm the guy I get to do Yeah, I want

1210
01:11:28,160 --> 01:11:30,000
Speaker 8: to make her as happy as possible, right, like that

1211
01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:31,280
Speaker 8: it's a joy thing.

1212
01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:32,880
Speaker 15: It's not like you can't do it.

1213
01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:35,120
Speaker 8: It's not that you don't have the ability to do it.

1214
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:38,320
Speaker 8: It's not a belittling thing to say, of course you

1215
01:11:38,360 --> 01:11:39,880
Speaker 8: could do this. Of course you can do that. Of

1216
01:11:39,920 --> 01:11:41,439
Speaker 8: course you could carry your bag. Of course you can

1217
01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:43,479
Speaker 8: buy your food. You have money, you have a job, like,

1218
01:11:43,560 --> 01:11:46,000
Speaker 8: of course you can do all those things. But at

1219
01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:48,519
Speaker 8: least for me as a guy, as more of a

1220
01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:51,400
Speaker 8: traditional man, I think it's fun to be able to

1221
01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:53,760
Speaker 8: be like I get to do this to make you

1222
01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:57,000
Speaker 8: feel like I'm protecting you, I'm taking care of you,

1223
01:11:57,160 --> 01:11:59,479
Speaker 8: Like it's a thing for me, right, And I think

1224
01:11:59,479 --> 01:12:03,719
Speaker 8: it goes ways in that, like when you know, I've

1225
01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:06,519
Speaker 8: never been married or anything, but if I do hopefully

1226
01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:09,280
Speaker 8: God blessed get married at some point to be able

1227
01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:11,639
Speaker 8: to come home and be like, you know, my wife

1228
01:12:11,720 --> 01:12:13,080
Speaker 8: wants to take care of me and stuff like. I

1229
01:12:13,160 --> 01:12:14,120
Speaker 8: think it goes both ways.

1230
01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:15,799
Speaker 1: I just don't know how you're single?

1231
01:12:16,680 --> 01:12:17,639
Speaker 2: Are you single?

1232
01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:21,000
Speaker 1: I mean with this attitude and this, and I love

1233
01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:23,960
Speaker 1: that you're you're calling and you're talking about this and

1234
01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:26,759
Speaker 1: speaking to younger men too, because these are these thirteen

1235
01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:29,120
Speaker 1: year olds that follow these guys. And I'm telling you,

1236
01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:33,840
Speaker 1: if you watch this Netflix documentary Inside the Manisphere and.

1237
01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:36,080
Speaker 15: And and the the guys, I haven't seen it.

1238
01:12:36,200 --> 01:12:38,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, that sounds pretty terrible.

1239
01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:40,400
Speaker 1: It was hard to watch. It was hard to watch.

1240
01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:42,360
Speaker 1: It was hard to watch how these men talk and

1241
01:12:42,439 --> 01:12:47,240
Speaker 1: treat women, and they they can flicted themselves all the time,

1242
01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:52,280
Speaker 1: all up and the Louis Thureau who's the British documentarist

1243
01:12:52,320 --> 01:12:55,160
Speaker 1: who interviewed them all that he would ask one question

1244
01:12:55,360 --> 01:12:57,920
Speaker 1: Matt and that would throw them off their game.

1245
01:12:57,800 --> 01:12:59,400
Speaker 2: And say this is going to be a hit piece.

1246
01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:01,599
Speaker 2: I mean, it was really weird.

1247
01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:06,679
Speaker 1: And in fact, Pierce who's Pierce Morgan, had an argument

1248
01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:09,560
Speaker 1: with one of the guys talking about this documentary and

1249
01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:12,240
Speaker 1: he went off the rails. I mean, so they don't

1250
01:13:12,320 --> 01:13:16,400
Speaker 1: have a large fuse either, Matt, I appreciate it. I

1251
01:13:16,479 --> 01:13:19,080
Speaker 1: got to get to my next guest, Michael Hawkins, but

1252
01:13:19,240 --> 01:13:20,759
Speaker 1: thank you so much for your comment.

1253
01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:21,960
Speaker 2: I really do appreciate it.

1254
01:13:22,240 --> 01:13:24,000
Speaker 1: Hank. We're gonna get to you in a moment, but

1255
01:13:24,120 --> 01:13:27,360
Speaker 1: first we're gonna run it over to a real man

1256
01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:31,160
Speaker 1: who does yoga. We're gonna switch topics here because I've

1257
01:13:31,160 --> 01:13:33,479
Speaker 1: been a yoga instructor for about fifteen years and it's

1258
01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:35,519
Speaker 1: one of the things I love that I get to

1259
01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:38,439
Speaker 1: do in life. And on the phone with me right

1260
01:13:38,560 --> 01:13:41,479
Speaker 1: now is Mike Hawkins, who is a board member for

1261
01:13:41,600 --> 01:13:46,120
Speaker 1: Project Yoga Cincinnati, a nonprofit designed to bring yoga to

1262
01:13:46,320 --> 01:13:49,639
Speaker 1: underserved communities and need it. Mike, Welcome to the show,

1263
01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:50,760
Speaker 1: Thanks for being here.

1264
01:13:52,120 --> 01:13:54,680
Speaker 6: Thanks Dona, great to be with you. Well, An, you've

1265
01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:57,760
Speaker 6: always as I watched this morning for you exactly.

1266
01:13:58,200 --> 01:13:59,960
Speaker 1: I was just gonna say, you're not just a board

1267
01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:03,360
Speaker 1: member for Project Yoga, you're also one of my yoga students.

1268
01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:06,240
Speaker 1: And the first question I want to ask you how

1269
01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:09,040
Speaker 1: long have you been practicing yoga and what got you started?

1270
01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:14,639
Speaker 6: I would say twenty five to thirty years been doing

1271
01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:18,320
Speaker 6: it started with Lilius Poland, who unfortunately just passed away

1272
01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:22,599
Speaker 6: at ninety two last week. She was a big time

1273
01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:27,360
Speaker 6: yoga instructor here and w CET had a yoga with Lilia,

1274
01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:30,519
Speaker 6: So that's how my wife and I got started with her.

1275
01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:34,759
Speaker 6: And kind of reason was, you know, saw something about

1276
01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:37,759
Speaker 6: it and had read about it, and you know, always

1277
01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:43,120
Speaker 6: been you know, athletically inclined and you know, being active,

1278
01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:47,080
Speaker 6: and just was another addition to Okay, this is something

1279
01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:51,519
Speaker 6: else that enhances your overall physical well being. And then

1280
01:14:51,880 --> 01:14:54,880
Speaker 6: you know, as you got more into it, understand the

1281
01:14:54,960 --> 01:14:59,320
Speaker 6: aspects of mindfulness and breeding and breath work and you know,

1282
01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:01,719
Speaker 6: your body and all that sort of stuff.

1283
01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:03,519
Speaker 15: So that's what led me to it.

1284
01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:08,640
Speaker 1: And so it was such such an interesting transition to

1285
01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:13,600
Speaker 1: go from inside the manisphere of the toxic masculinity and

1286
01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:17,560
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff into men doing yoga because and I,

1287
01:15:17,920 --> 01:15:19,720
Speaker 1: you know, I taught. I used to teach out in

1288
01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:22,559
Speaker 1: Los Angeles for years and years, so there were plenty

1289
01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:27,120
Speaker 1: of men, but I think there are two guys in

1290
01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:30,000
Speaker 1: our class, normally two or three, you and Barry and

1291
01:15:30,080 --> 01:15:36,240
Speaker 1: another guy. So guys sometimes feel uncomfortable like they're you know, there,

1292
01:15:36,600 --> 01:15:37,560
Speaker 1: they don't know what to do.

1293
01:15:38,080 --> 01:15:39,800
Speaker 2: Maybe it's a girl thing.

1294
01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:43,120
Speaker 1: What would you say to somebody a man who wants

1295
01:15:43,200 --> 01:15:44,640
Speaker 1: to get going in yoga.

1296
01:15:45,960 --> 01:15:47,720
Speaker 6: Well, I would say get involved with it. You know,

1297
01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:50,559
Speaker 6: there's a great book I told you about called Real

1298
01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:53,920
Speaker 6: Men Do Yoga and have Eddie George, former running back

1299
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:56,960
Speaker 6: I think for the Tennessee Titans. In each chapter is

1300
01:15:57,479 --> 01:16:01,240
Speaker 6: different professional athletes who've incorporated yoga into their training and

1301
01:16:01,320 --> 01:16:05,560
Speaker 6: owlys enhanced their recovery and led to less injuries and

1302
01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:08,760
Speaker 6: more flexible and you know that whole thing. And then

1303
01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:11,320
Speaker 6: I've known some other yoga teachers that are teaching the

1304
01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:17,960
Speaker 6: basketball players at Xavier. So it's definitely a value add

1305
01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:20,639
Speaker 6: to you if you want to be physically active, whether

1306
01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:24,680
Speaker 6: you're doing golf or tennis or any other types of

1307
01:16:24,760 --> 01:16:28,040
Speaker 6: physical activity. And the more you get into it, you

1308
01:16:28,120 --> 01:16:32,000
Speaker 6: have an appreciation for, you know, the breathing and the

1309
01:16:32,120 --> 01:16:35,160
Speaker 6: body work and all those sorts of dynamics and then

1310
01:16:35,240 --> 01:16:37,679
Speaker 6: it you know, for me, it's led me to become

1311
01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:41,400
Speaker 6: a certified yoga instructor and then the journey onto Project

1312
01:16:41,479 --> 01:16:42,840
Speaker 6: Yoga Cincinnati Board.

1313
01:16:43,280 --> 01:16:46,200
Speaker 1: You know, I just realized because I have a friend

1314
01:16:46,280 --> 01:16:49,920
Speaker 1: who owns a skydiving company in Denver and he does

1315
01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:54,679
Speaker 1: all the skydiving home shows, the home the home games

1316
01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:58,240
Speaker 1: for the Broncos, and he's invited me to a couple

1317
01:16:58,360 --> 01:17:00,800
Speaker 1: times to get on the field and and that kind

1318
01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:03,320
Speaker 1: of stuff. When I was on the field, Peyton Manning

1319
01:17:03,400 --> 01:17:05,960
Speaker 1: actually was the quarterback. It was the first game for

1320
01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:07,800
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning and I was on the field for the

1321
01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:11,240
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos, and they were all doing yoga, all of

1322
01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:14,160
Speaker 1: them on the field laying down doing yoga. So tell

1323
01:17:14,240 --> 01:17:18,439
Speaker 1: me about Project Yoga. It's a nonprofit in Cincinnati. It's

1324
01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:23,280
Speaker 1: based around trauma informed yoga creates a safe, safe space

1325
01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:26,280
Speaker 1: for kids to practice and learn these tools to help

1326
01:17:26,320 --> 01:17:31,160
Speaker 1: them heal physically, emotionally and psychologically. So tell me about

1327
01:17:31,240 --> 01:17:33,880
Speaker 1: how you got involved. And I know that there's a

1328
01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:35,559
Speaker 1: pretty big event coming up as well.

1329
01:17:37,120 --> 01:17:37,320
Speaker 13: Yeah.

1330
01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:41,040
Speaker 6: So one of my prior yoga teachers, she was actually

1331
01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:44,639
Speaker 6: doing some of the teaching with Project Yoga. In fact,

1332
01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:46,840
Speaker 6: it was at christ Child Daycare Center and so I

1333
01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:50,320
Speaker 6: went with her a few times, you know, doing classes

1334
01:17:50,400 --> 01:17:52,880
Speaker 6: for four and five year old and over the Ryan area.

1335
01:17:53,640 --> 01:17:57,439
Speaker 6: And you know, it's prompted me to get certified as

1336
01:17:57,479 --> 01:17:59,639
Speaker 6: an instructor so I could do it as well, because

1337
01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:02,599
Speaker 6: you had to be certified. So back in twenty nineteen,

1338
01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:06,760
Speaker 6: I did a two week, two hundred hour yoga certification. Yeah,

1339
01:18:07,920 --> 01:18:11,960
Speaker 6: got certified, and then with teaching for about a year

1340
01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:15,200
Speaker 6: with four and five year olds at christ Child Daycare Center,

1341
01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:18,640
Speaker 6: and then we also were teaching at Paft Elementary. I

1342
01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:22,440
Speaker 6: was doing fifth grade boys, and then I did at

1343
01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:26,920
Speaker 6: Hirsh Rec Center in Avondale with eight men of six weeks.

1344
01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:30,320
Speaker 2: How did the kids? How did the kids respond to yoga?

1345
01:18:30,400 --> 01:18:35,200
Speaker 1: Because it's breathing, it's opening their body, it's movement, it's stillness.

1346
01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:37,559
Speaker 1: How did they respond after they do a class? Because

1347
01:18:37,600 --> 01:18:42,440
Speaker 1: I've never taught kids, I've never taught anybody below seventeen

1348
01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:43,840
Speaker 1: and seventeen and younger.

1349
01:18:45,040 --> 01:18:48,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, so it's very different at all stages. I mean

1350
01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:51,679
Speaker 6: the little ones four and five year olds, you kind

1351
01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:55,000
Speaker 6: of play with it and when you're doing cat cow pos,

1352
01:18:55,040 --> 01:18:59,840
Speaker 6: you're meowing and moving, you know that sort of stuff

1353
01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:04,479
Speaker 6: with them. With the fifth grade boys, I introduced them

1354
01:19:04,560 --> 01:19:08,759
Speaker 6: to some audio stuff of Lebron James and talking about

1355
01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:14,160
Speaker 6: how he does yoga, and you know, they've really responded

1356
01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:18,960
Speaker 6: to that idea. But with trauma informed and particularly underserved,

1357
01:19:19,080 --> 01:19:22,960
Speaker 6: underprivileged community. Everybody's not at the same level and they're

1358
01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:25,880
Speaker 6: not ready. So some of those kids, you know, they

1359
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:28,280
Speaker 6: just wanted to lay on their mat and fall asleep.

1360
01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:31,360
Speaker 6: And if it wasn't one of these things that you're

1361
01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:35,400
Speaker 6: making somebody do something, but you're sharing with them in

1362
01:19:35,520 --> 01:19:39,879
Speaker 6: a different way because Trauma informed yoga is an approach

1363
01:19:39,960 --> 01:19:46,680
Speaker 6: to yoga that considers the effects of trauma on individuals physically, emotionally, psychologically,

1364
01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:51,479
Speaker 6: and it emphasizes creating a safe support of environment for

1365
01:19:51,680 --> 01:19:55,719
Speaker 6: the students who have experienced you know, and maybe they're homeless,

1366
01:19:55,760 --> 01:20:00,479
Speaker 6: they might be single family, they might be living things,

1367
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:03,040
Speaker 6: may have other violence, you know, depending.

1368
01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:06,160
Speaker 10: On where you live. So that got all this.

1369
01:20:06,320 --> 01:20:09,439
Speaker 6: So it's not something where it's so structured like Okay,

1370
01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:11,400
Speaker 6: here's how you do this pose and be sure and

1371
01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:15,640
Speaker 6: do it this way. But it's more, hey, here's an opportunity,

1372
01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:19,680
Speaker 6: share the breathing, share this and you know, we have

1373
01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:24,760
Speaker 6: some little breathing exercises and learn some steps to in

1374
01:20:24,880 --> 01:20:28,560
Speaker 6: your daily life. You know, stop, pause, think, breathe, and

1375
01:20:28,680 --> 01:20:32,600
Speaker 6: then act. And I mean we've had responses from some

1376
01:20:32,720 --> 01:20:34,160
Speaker 6: of them like, oh, I was home, I was going

1377
01:20:34,240 --> 01:20:35,760
Speaker 6: to get in a fight with my brother, but I

1378
01:20:36,200 --> 01:20:38,480
Speaker 6: decided to take a breath, and then I didn't.

1379
01:20:38,920 --> 01:20:44,000
Speaker 1: Exactly That is the point. Yoga is about the inner

1380
01:20:44,160 --> 01:20:47,880
Speaker 1: workings of your body. It's understanding when emotions come up

1381
01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:51,439
Speaker 1: and how to handle them. It is quieting the mind,

1382
01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:54,640
Speaker 1: it's calming the nervous system. So, Mike, we have just

1383
01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:57,600
Speaker 1: about one minute. Can you please tell me about the

1384
01:20:57,640 --> 01:21:01,439
Speaker 1: event you have Project Yoga and the Ripple of act Sure.

1385
01:21:01,560 --> 01:21:05,679
Speaker 6: So the impact of yoga is having a rep acta

1386
01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:08,120
Speaker 6: in people in a variety of ways. And we call

1387
01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:11,759
Speaker 6: our main event, which is April twenty fifth, that Fuel

1388
01:21:11,880 --> 01:21:16,680
Speaker 6: Collective UH is our fundraising annual event. And we end

1389
01:21:16,800 --> 01:21:20,160

Speaker 1: It's the toxic masculinity from the likes of Andrew and

1426
01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:18,599
Speaker 1: Tristan Tate. They're actually not in the documentary, but they're

1427
01:23:18,720 --> 01:23:24,200
Speaker 1: kind of the godfathers of the quote unquote real world. Hank,

1428
01:23:24,280 --> 01:23:26,439
Speaker 1: You've been hanging on for like thirty minutes.

01:23:29,720 --> 01:23:31,080

01:23:32,840 --> 01:23:37,519
Speaker 12: Hey, Missade, you're doing an incredible job. Thank you so amazing.

1433
01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:42,799
Speaker 22: Thanks And so to see, I'm a US Marine combat

1434
01:23:42,960 --> 01:23:47,720
Speaker 22: veteran and any real man out there would open a

1435
01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:51,519
Speaker 22: door for a lady, would you know, offer his left

1436
01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:57,400
Speaker 22: arm courdly for a lady and would really met up.

1437
01:23:57,960 --> 01:24:02,920
Speaker 22: And if any of those guys that are not that

1438
01:24:03,040 --> 01:24:06,160
Speaker 22: are that, I think the other way, I would saying

1439
01:24:06,280 --> 01:24:08,040
Speaker 22: to me, I just laugh in their face.

1440
01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:14,120
Speaker 1: How do you get to be that guy, Hank? How

1441
01:24:14,160 --> 01:24:16,479
Speaker 1: do you get to be the guy that opens the

1442
01:24:16,600 --> 01:24:19,280
Speaker 1: door like Matt the caller prior to you?

1443
01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:20,559
Speaker 9: Yeah?

1444
01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:21,280
Speaker 6: So is it?

1445
01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:23,280
Speaker 2: Because it does it come from your parents?

1446
01:24:24,920 --> 01:24:25,840
Speaker 15: Goes from my mom?

1447
01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:26,519
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1448
01:24:26,960 --> 01:24:31,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I'm wondering these these thirteen year old boys

1449
01:24:31,760 --> 01:24:36,280
Speaker 1: that are following, uh, these these guys in the real world,

1450
01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:39,000
Speaker 1: they're paying to be part of this membership. I think

1451
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:41,519
Speaker 1: it's like fifty dollars a month in there, and this

1452
01:24:41,720 --> 01:24:44,519
Speaker 1: is all all all on the documentary. And the way

1453
01:24:44,600 --> 01:24:48,280
Speaker 1: that they speak and talk talk to and talk about

1454
01:24:48,400 --> 01:24:50,240
Speaker 1: women is pretty horrible.

1455
01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:56,400
Speaker 12: It's so unacceptable. Now, don't mean my wife though I

1456
01:24:56,479 --> 01:25:00,640
Speaker 12: was almost thirty and you know, she's the most in

1457
01:25:00,720 --> 01:25:02,080
Speaker 12: the world to me.

1458
01:25:03,400 --> 01:25:07,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I just hope that that guys that

1459
01:25:08,280 --> 01:25:11,760
Speaker 1: like you, that are that can be heard more that

1460
01:25:11,920 --> 01:25:13,719
Speaker 1: you're on the air with me. And I'm so glad

1461
01:25:13,760 --> 01:25:16,160
Speaker 1: you held on for so long because we've had some

1462
01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:19,599
Speaker 1: men that have called and stepped up today and said, hey, guys,

1463
01:25:19,720 --> 01:25:22,519
Speaker 1: for the kids out there, there are different men out

1464
01:25:22,560 --> 01:25:25,120
Speaker 1: there and and there are you watch this? Are you

1465
01:25:25,200 --> 01:25:32,439
Speaker 1: planning on watching the documentary Hank on Netflix? Now? No,

1466
01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:37,800
Speaker 1: I've got It's it's it's an interesting take. I you know,

1467
01:25:37,880 --> 01:25:41,120
Speaker 1: I do a relationship show on this station on Saturday nights,

1468
01:25:41,160 --> 01:25:42,840
Speaker 1: and this is one of the reasons why I wanted

1469
01:25:42,880 --> 01:25:47,320
Speaker 1: to watch it, because it is it's so important to

1470
01:25:47,479 --> 01:25:51,680
Speaker 1: see and hear and listen to what young men and

1471
01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:53,920
Speaker 1: we we really feel like we have a problem with

1472
01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:58,560
Speaker 1: young boys in this society who are video games and

1473
01:25:59,520 --> 01:26:03,080
Speaker 1: social media and iPhones and that kind of stuff, and

1474
01:26:03,160 --> 01:26:06,960
Speaker 1: they don't get out to meet people. They don't go

1475
01:26:07,080 --> 01:26:10,080
Speaker 1: out into the real world, not the real world on

1476
01:26:10,439 --> 01:26:14,040
Speaker 1: the internet, but into the real world to meet girls

1477
01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:16,479
Speaker 1: and ask them out on dates and to be friends

1478
01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:16,920
Speaker 1: with them.

1479
01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:21,040
Speaker 2: And it's kind of a problem. You're right, What do

1480
01:26:21,120 --> 01:26:23,439
Speaker 2: we do about it, Hank? Let's solve this right now.

1481
01:26:23,520 --> 01:26:24,080

1482
01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:26,280
Speaker 9: Well?

1483
01:26:26,600 --> 01:26:31,680
Speaker 12: I mean, jeez, why can't these kids get out of

1484
01:26:31,720 --> 01:26:34,080
Speaker 12: their own head and actually get out there and meet

1485
01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:36,400
Speaker 12: people like we did back in the.

Speaker 1: Day, right, that was the best time when we were kids,

1487
01:26:40,760 --> 01:26:42,720

Speaker 16: I just want you to recap what is it? Okay?

1507
01:27:37,320 --> 01:27:38,880
Speaker 9: What is this documentary about?

1508
01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:40,920
Speaker 14: Because I just got in my car after dropping my

01:27:41,040 --> 01:27:44,080
Speaker 14: daughter off with four of her friends and they were

1510
01:27:44,120 --> 01:27:46,960
Speaker 14: all listening and we're like, okay, what is this about?

1511
01:27:47,160 --> 01:27:47,560
Speaker 1: What is it?

1512
01:27:47,800 --> 01:27:48,080
Speaker 13: Okay?

1513
01:27:48,400 --> 01:27:51,280
Speaker 1: So it's a new, brand new documentary on Netflix and

1514
01:27:51,360 --> 01:27:55,080
Speaker 1: it's called Inside the Man a sphere right, and it's

1515
01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:56,680
Speaker 1: and we looked it up.

01:27:56,840 --> 01:27:57,040
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1517
01:27:57,360 --> 01:28:02,160

1518
01:28:02,200 --> 01:28:05,520
Speaker 1: there's a group of guys that are online that basically

1519
01:28:06,640 --> 01:28:10,280
Speaker 1: it's toxic masculinity. They talk about that all the time

1520
01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:14,120
Speaker 1: during this documentary. The way that they feel about women

1521
01:28:14,400 --> 01:28:17,240
Speaker 1: is they should own and control and they can have

1522
01:28:17,360 --> 01:28:20,280
Speaker 1: as many wives as they want, and the women that

1523
01:28:20,400 --> 01:28:23,479
Speaker 1: are with them should, you know, clean the house and

1524
01:28:23,960 --> 01:28:26,320
Speaker 1: cook and take care of things as long as they

1525
01:28:26,439 --> 01:28:29,799
Speaker 1: pay for everything. Long as they pay for everything.

1526
01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:34,960
Speaker 21: Well, now, and I'm just gonna say real quick, Okay,

1657
01:35:13,520 --> 01:35:15,800
Speaker 1: in a cover band, right, you know, within two or

1658
01:35:15,840 --> 01:35:18,920
Speaker 1: three months of meeting him, three or four months or whatever,

1659
01:35:19,120 --> 01:35:22,200
Speaker 1: I got here and our first date he was then

1663
01:35:33,120 --> 01:35:35,320
Speaker 1: and like I said, I've been in the parade and

1664
01:35:35,439 --> 01:35:38,640
Speaker 1: things like that as a radio host in Cincinnati, and

Speaker 1: it's been a long time since I've been in the parade.

1666
01:35:41,720 --> 01:35:43,719
