Yeah, yeah. That 0:01:35.050 --> 0:01:37.820 the great, iconic Dolly Parton has passed away at 80 0:01:37.819 --> 0:01:40.800 years old. And to be honest with you, do we 0:01:40.819 --> 0:01:42.880 really even know if that's her birthday? Because I think 0:01:42.920 --> 0:01:46.720 that she is one of the mysterious Hollywood legends that 0:01:46.800 --> 0:01:49.500 never really released this. And I'll tell you why. Because 0:01:49.530 --> 0:01:54.930 as I'm reading about Dolly today, they were talking about, 0:01:54.970 --> 0:01:58.110 here are some great facts about Dolly Parton on her 0:01:58.310 --> 0:02:04.590 80th birthday, dated 2024. So I think she's one of 0:02:04.630 --> 0:02:07.280 those women who really kind of never really told anybody 0:02:07.330 --> 0:02:10.280 exactly how old she was. We knew she was up there. 0:02:10.300 --> 0:02:12.779 You know, she'd maintain herself quite well with a bunch 0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:13.619 of different procedures. 0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:15.540 Yeah, absolutely. Still beautiful. 0:02:16.280 --> 0:02:17.080 Absolutely beautiful. 0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:20.019 And probably, you know, we were here in the studio 0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:22.360 probably about 20 minutes ago trying to figure out if 0:02:22.380 --> 0:02:28.190 there was a more iconic American entertainer slash musician still 0:02:28.290 --> 0:02:31.730 alive that had that much impact over that many decades 0:02:31.750 --> 0:02:34.540 and Um, and I, it, we, it was tough. We 0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:36.200 were having a hard time. I mean, you know, Bruce 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:38.940 came up because he's, he's 80. I think Willie Nelson. 0:02:39.180 --> 0:02:39.360 Yeah. 0:02:39.419 --> 0:02:40.090 I would say Willie. 0:02:40.100 --> 0:02:40.470 Good one. 0:02:40.810 --> 0:02:42.850 I don't think you'll find anyone more beloved. 0:02:43.090 --> 0:02:43.490 Yeah. Yeah. 0:02:43.550 --> 0:02:43.670 Yeah. 0:02:43.690 --> 0:02:46.910 Somebody did text in, uh, someone who is equally beloved, 0:02:46.930 --> 0:02:48.269 just simply not American. 0:02:48.350 --> 0:02:48.470 The. 0:02:49.450 --> 0:02:50.450 David Attenborough. 0:02:50.830 --> 0:02:53.970 Yeah, yeah, but I don't know about Dolly, man. 0:02:54.169 --> 0:02:55.500 There is nobody over Dolly. 0:02:55.750 --> 0:02:56.060 Yeah, Dolly. 0:02:56.070 --> 0:03:00.100 Dolly was the last American icon that just appealed to everyone, 0:03:00.139 --> 0:03:00.820 young and old. 0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:04.680 Man, you read her life story, and it is absolutely insane. 0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:09.720 You're talking about a deck stacked against somebody. Yeah, humble beginnings. 0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:12.799 Her daddy was a farmer. How many kids do you. 0:03:12.740 --> 0:03:13.260 Think there were? 0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:15.180 She was one of how many? 0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:16.579 Eight? 0:03:18.060 --> 0:03:18.750 I'll say 11. 0:03:18.750 --> 0:03:18.940 12. 0:03:18.940 --> 0:03:20.399 Oh, okay. 0:03:20.900 --> 0:03:21.140 Yep. 0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:23.139 She was one of 12 kids that lived in a 0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:25.060 two-bedroom house in Tennessee. 0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:27.760 That's when you know it's a farming family because. 0:03:27.380 --> 0:03:28.200 That's your crew. 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:28.720 Exactly. 0:03:28.740 --> 0:03:29.180 That's it. 0:03:29.260 --> 0:03:31.280 You have kids to help you work the farm. 0:03:31.340 --> 0:03:32.220 That is the workforce. 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:33.410 Yeah, absolutely. 0:03:33.830 --> 0:03:36.990 Really amazing talent. Was kind of nurtured by a country 0:03:37.050 --> 0:03:39.860 artist back in the day named Porter Wagner. And if 0:03:39.880 --> 0:03:42.250 you'll ever remember Porter Wagner, Porter Wagner was one of 0:03:42.260 --> 0:03:46.330 the guys who brought on the sequin age of Nashville 0:03:47.050 --> 0:03:50.230 country music. Everybody had the sequin suit. It was the 0:03:50.270 --> 0:03:53.250 late 70s or late 60s going into the 70s, early 0:03:53.690 --> 0:03:56.600 80s before the outlaw years hit. Country music was kind 0:03:56.620 --> 0:03:59.240 of shiny. A lot of that kind of thing, a 0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:02.360 lot of traveling cowboy kind of stuff. And the song 0:04:02.500 --> 0:04:05.080 I Will Always Love You actually is about Porter Wagner, 0:04:05.140 --> 0:04:08.490 not about a love interest at all. Oh, the song 0:04:08.530 --> 0:04:11.330 that Whitney Houston made famous but written and originally done 0:04:11.350 --> 0:04:13.570 by Dolly Parton. Yeah, exactly. She wrote that song. Everybody 0:04:13.590 --> 0:04:16.070 thought that was her talking about a lover or about 0:04:16.089 --> 0:04:17.860 somebody she fell in love with. It wasn't at all. 0:04:18.540 --> 0:04:22.060 Porter Wagner, when she decided she was leaving his tutelage 0:04:22.140 --> 0:04:24.920 to move on in the business herself, it broke his heart. 0:04:25.260 --> 0:04:25.860 Yeah. 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:28.690 And she wrote the song to tell him, hey, look, 0:04:28.710 --> 0:04:30.890 you know, regardless of what happens here, you know, I 0:04:30.910 --> 0:04:34.410 will always love you. So that became a gigantic hit. Yeah. 0:04:34.630 --> 0:04:35.710 And just one of her many. 0:04:36.029 --> 0:04:38.539 And, you know, she just lost her husband last year. 0:04:38.580 --> 0:04:38.940 Yeah. 0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:41.400 Carl Thomas Dean just passed in March of 2020. She 0:04:41.500 --> 0:04:43.200 was with him for 55 years. 0:04:43.220 --> 0:04:45.039 They met when he was when she was only 18 0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:45.539 years old. 0:04:45.580 --> 0:04:47.640 Her first day in Nashville. She met him at the 0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:52.300 wishy washy laundromat and their first date. I don't remember 0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:53.060 their first date. 0:04:53.180 --> 0:04:53.720 McDonald's. 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:54.380 McDonald's? 0:04:54.420 --> 0:04:55.610 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:04:55.620 --> 0:04:58.450 Yeah, she was always impressed that when he first met her, 0:04:59.370 --> 0:05:02.570 she'd commented apparently in her memoir that while they were talking, 0:05:02.950 --> 0:05:06.830 he consistently looked in her eyes. Which she wrote was 0:05:06.870 --> 0:05:09.190 a rarity for her, for people to keep their eyes, 0:05:09.610 --> 0:05:10.680 you know, neck and above. 0:05:11.060 --> 0:05:15.299 Yeah, we were also talking about how, especially in country music, 0:05:15.339 --> 0:05:18.080 you know, specifically in country music, she was able to 0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:21.260 stay apolitical. And I bet if you asked anybody right 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:23.200 now how she voted, you'd probably never know. 0:05:23.220 --> 0:05:23.580 Right. 0:05:23.900 --> 0:05:25.690 Which was so difficult, but she kept that kind of 0:05:25.810 --> 0:05:27.470 out of her music. She wanted her music to be 0:05:27.529 --> 0:05:30.070 like just... your stories over life and things that she 0:05:30.150 --> 0:05:34.770 saw she never really got mired in that which is unbelievably. 0:05:34.070 --> 0:05:36.380 Impressive it used to be that way it used to 0:05:36.390 --> 0:05:38.700 be there are three things you didn't talk about in 0:05:38.740 --> 0:05:43.800 play company money Religion and politics. Those were just three 0:05:43.860 --> 0:05:45.120 things you just didn't talk about. 0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:45.580 Yeah. 0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:47.200 But, you know, she came up in an age like 0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:49.260 she was very famous in the age of like songwriters 0:05:49.290 --> 0:05:51.470 like Chris Christopherson and Waylon Jennings and a lot of 0:05:51.490 --> 0:05:53.770 those guys that push back against the establishment when it 0:05:53.790 --> 0:05:57.300 comes to country music, you know, Willie even, you know, 0:05:57.339 --> 0:06:01.080 writing songs about. uh, about, uh, you know, tax man and, uh, 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:04.970 you know, and about, you know, about the government overpowering, uh, 0:06:05.130 --> 0:06:07.770 you as a, as a citizen, you know, Chris Christopherson 0:06:07.790 --> 0:06:09.750 wrote songs like that. And as she grew up in 0:06:09.770 --> 0:06:12.229 that era and, uh, still did not kind of get 0:06:12.250 --> 0:06:13.870 into that whole thing. She just kind of kept it her. 0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:17.240 She really is. I mean, she is an amazing person, dude. 0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:18.700 It's kind of a drag. I was sitting here. I 0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:23.169 was grabbing a little nap before the show. And Deb, 0:06:23.210 --> 0:06:27.450 I heard Deb take that deep breath. I went and said, oh, no, 0:06:27.470 --> 0:06:30.230 I had no idea. And we knew she was in 0:06:30.270 --> 0:06:33.550 bad health at the beginning of the year. She had 0:06:33.610 --> 0:06:35.430 kind of made an announcement that, you know, the way 0:06:35.450 --> 0:06:37.770 that Dolly would, you know, hey, y'all, you know, got 0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:39.380 a couple of things going on. I can't wait to 0:06:39.420 --> 0:06:41.099 see you. But right now, my doctors say I got 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:44.070 to stay at home. And when you look at her career, 0:06:44.110 --> 0:06:46.270 she's relatively dogged when it comes to making her dates 0:06:46.310 --> 0:06:48.070 and doing her things. But she had also got pulled 0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:53.800 away from– is it Dolly World? Yeah. Dollywood? 0:06:53.980 --> 0:06:54.440 Dollywood. 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:55.360 That's it. Dollywood, yeah. 0:06:55.980 --> 0:06:58.740 And she didn't make an appearance there a few months 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:01.580 back when she was supposed to for something I remember. 0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:03.120 It's a grand opening of some kind. 0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:05.870 And then just recently, a couple weeks ago, she had 0:07:05.910 --> 0:07:09.480 to cancel an appearance because– And again, reminded everybody that 0:07:09.780 --> 0:07:11.650 she was just following doctor's orders. So we knew it 0:07:11.690 --> 0:07:13.250 was a little bit more serious than maybe she was 0:07:13.290 --> 0:07:15.370 leading on. Had no idea it was like this. 0:07:15.830 --> 0:07:20.130 And obviously someone was just texting us at 77031 saying 0:07:20.150 --> 0:07:23.190 their uncle worked on the set of Steel Magnolias. Great, 0:07:23.310 --> 0:07:26.240 great movie. When he was in college and said Dolly 0:07:26.270 --> 0:07:29.200 was wonderful. One of the of all the actresses on set. 0:07:29.620 --> 0:07:31.810 She was the friendliest and made sure to speak to everyone. 0:07:31.830 --> 0:07:33.030 And she was a good actress. 0:07:33.250 --> 0:07:33.720 Yes, she was. 0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:35.220 9 to 5, still magnolias. 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:37.640 Total natural. She was a total natural. She really was. 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:41.050 You know, it's so funny. My mother, I remember specifically 0:07:41.090 --> 0:07:45.390 my mom, never watched late night television, never watched it, 0:07:45.410 --> 0:07:47.470 would never stay up that late, didn't care for it, 0:07:47.550 --> 0:07:50.130 didn't care about any of that stuff. But man, every 0:07:50.170 --> 0:07:51.870 time she found out that Dolly was going to be 0:07:51.910 --> 0:07:54.730 on Johnny Carson, she would make a point to stay 0:07:54.790 --> 0:07:56.990 up and watch Dolly on Johnny Carson because she just 0:07:57.030 --> 0:07:58.550 loved Dolly Parton. And back in the day, it wasn't 0:07:58.590 --> 0:08:00.870 like you could go online and. and just kind of 0:08:00.910 --> 0:08:03.170 bring up something about somebody. When you get that longing 0:08:03.230 --> 0:08:05.270 to see a song or hear a tune or whatever, 0:08:05.300 --> 0:08:06.750 you couldn't do it. If you had an album, you 0:08:06.770 --> 0:08:07.300 could put it on. 0:08:07.330 --> 0:08:08.000 You had to wait. 0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:09.920 Seeing people, you had to wait until they made an 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:12.740 appearance on some kind of a show, which was kind 0:08:12.780 --> 0:08:14.800 of rare back in the day. But when she came on, 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:18.460 my mom would absolutely love seeing Dolly sing. She liked 0:08:18.500 --> 0:08:21.940 Dolly's laugh, which is one of the things I think 0:08:22.020 --> 0:08:24.940 I'll always remember about Dolly's laugh. That squeaky little innocent 0:08:24.980 --> 0:08:26.280 laugh of hers was so great. 0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:27.220 Infectious. 0:08:28.060 --> 0:08:30.180 She was great on the talk shows, but she also 0:08:30.220 --> 0:08:33.140 did movies. Rhinestone was with Sylvester Stallone. 0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:33.420 Yeah, yeah. 0:08:33.470 --> 0:08:35.750 Remember that one? That's a little whorehouse in Texas. With 0:08:36.150 --> 0:08:38.950 Burt Reynolds. Yeah, she did that one. Nine to Five is, 0:08:39.090 --> 0:08:40.770 I think, maybe her... That was the best. 0:08:40.830 --> 0:08:41.829 That was so funny. 0:08:41.850 --> 0:08:42.390 Such a good movie. 0:08:42.429 --> 0:08:45.110 Well, she only made a few, right?

I 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:53.500 think she made a series of those movies where Hallmark 0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:56.340 got her and, I mean, she just basically turned her albums... 0:08:56.600 --> 0:08:58.760 into small movies, if I remember right. She did a 0:08:58.800 --> 0:08:59.320 couple of those. 0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:02.199 I loved her before, but someone texted, don't know if 0:09:02.240 --> 0:09:04.209 this is right or not, but they said, fun fact, 0:09:04.230 --> 0:09:06.950 Dolly was an executive producer for the Buffy series. 0:09:07.170 --> 0:09:07.569 Oh, really? 0:09:07.590 --> 0:09:09.130 I didn't know that. 0:09:09.190 --> 0:09:11.130 That just gives her an extra layer of cool. 0:09:11.190 --> 0:09:14.030 I know one of the big things that she was 0:09:14.410 --> 0:09:17.510 quite known for was children's literacy. 0:09:17.690 --> 0:09:17.930 Yes. 0:09:18.190 --> 0:09:20.380 And I think if you look at the numbers, she 0:09:20.580 --> 0:09:24.980 donated or made sure, I want to say, guys- Like 0:09:25.460 --> 0:09:29.160 over 100 million books or some ridiculous amount of books 0:09:29.900 --> 0:09:32.480 globally to make sure that people and children had something 0:09:32.500 --> 0:09:34.800 to read and to learn how to read.

It's 0:12:09.870 --> 0:12:13.900 going to be a two-hour special. On national network television, 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:17.790 you know, live from the Grand Ole Opry, every single 0:12:18.309 --> 0:12:20.489 legend that can still pick up a guitar or play 0:12:20.510 --> 0:12:23.170 a piano is going to find a way on stage 0:12:23.250 --> 0:12:25.530 to show their love for Dolly Parton. And they should. 0:12:25.580 --> 0:12:26.020 You're right 100%. 0:12:26.020 --> 0:12:27.179 Yeah, absolutely. 0:12:27.620 --> 0:12:29.800 She paved so many roads for so many different people. 0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:31.880 Yeah, it'll be huge. 0:12:33.980 --> 0:12:35.380 We'll be talking about it for a while. 0:12:35.420 --> 0:12:35.730 Yeah, yeah. 0:12:37.410 --> 0:12:40.270 Apparently, I read a little something today right after it 0:12:40.309 --> 0:12:44.250 happened that there is a warehouse somewhere in Tennessee that 0:12:44.309 --> 0:12:53.650 has every outfit, shoe, and wig she's ever worn since 1964. Wow. 0:12:55.020 --> 0:12:56.820 And she wore wigs. You know why she wore them? 0:12:58.179 --> 0:12:58.439 No. No. 0:12:58.670 --> 0:13:01.429 She wore wigs because she didn't want to damage her 0:13:01.530 --> 0:13:04.569 natural hair because she knew to keep it looking like that, 0:13:04.610 --> 0:13:07.290 that platinum blonde thing that she's had that it would 0:13:07.350 --> 0:13:09.470 wind up eventually ruining her hair. 0:13:09.570 --> 0:13:09.790 Right. 0:13:09.910 --> 0:13:11.930 So she wore wigs so that she could keep her 0:13:12.070 --> 0:13:14.870 actual natural hair. And I don't know that anybody's ever 0:13:14.910 --> 0:13:16.709 seen her without. I don't know what she looks like 0:13:16.870 --> 0:13:18.650 with her natural hair. It's probably short, right? 0:13:18.670 --> 0:13:19.120 Yeah. 0:13:19.130 --> 0:13:19.320 Yeah. 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:23.960 Well, do you think, I mean, so if they have 0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:26.460 all of that stuff, I mean, that lends itself to 0:13:26.500 --> 0:13:30.900 be a museum, but she has Dollywood, which could be 0:13:30.960 --> 0:13:33.559 the place where that stuff could be used, all of 0:13:33.620 --> 0:13:34.990 the memorabilia and stuff. 0:13:35.000 --> 0:13:35.280 Yeah, yeah. 0:13:35.300 --> 0:13:38.070 That they could always just rotate in and out and 0:13:38.970 --> 0:13:41.730 keep changing the items. Yeah, considering her humble nature, I'm 0:13:41.750 --> 0:13:43.750 guessing she probably has been pitched that, but probably just 0:13:43.770 --> 0:13:46.730 simply said no because she didn't want something like that 0:13:46.770 --> 0:13:47.650 while she was still with us. 0:13:48.110 --> 0:13:48.730 But I don't know that. 0:13:48.750 --> 0:13:50.830 But I mean, she just she was a painfully humble. 0:13:50.870 --> 0:13:51.370 We know that. 0:13:51.470 --> 0:13:55.480 Well, speaking of American icons, Arnold Palmer, I think is 0:13:55.520 --> 0:13:58.660 another one who is beloved because he like with the 0:13:58.679 --> 0:14:01.580 Bay Hill tournament. He didn't want to call the Arnold 0:14:01.800 --> 0:14:04.000 Palmer Invitational while he was alive. 0:14:04.059 --> 0:14:05.260 Right. To him, it was. 0:14:05.780 --> 0:14:08.130 Oh, no, it was. Can I tell you, everybody and 0:14:08.170 --> 0:14:10.589 everybody in the golf world to this day never says AP. 0:14:10.630 --> 0:14:11.510 They always say bail. 0:14:11.820 --> 0:14:12.300 Yeah, yeah. 0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:14.510 Nobody I know that plays golf seriously or is in 0:14:14.530 --> 0:14:17.670 that game refers to that golf tournament as the Arnold Palmer. 0:14:17.690 --> 0:14:20.260 It's always Bay Hill. And they never call him Arnold. 0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:21.380 It's always Mr. Palmer. 0:14:21.460 --> 0:14:21.620 Yeah. 0:14:21.910 --> 0:14:24.890 When you're on property, it's never Arnold. Only the members 0:14:25.210 --> 0:14:27.290 and those dudes are all like the guy who owns 0:14:27.330 --> 0:14:29.650 Rolling Rock and guys like that who are his buddies. 0:14:29.950 --> 0:14:32.460 They called him Arnie. Everybody else called him Mr. Palmer. 0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:35.680 I think also people say Bay Hill because it's easier 0:14:35.700 --> 0:14:37.160 to say than Arnold Palmer. 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:38.160 It is a little difficult. 0:14:38.180 --> 0:14:38.460 Yeah, yeah. 0:14:39.100 --> 0:14:39.380 All right. 0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:41.920 Well, God rest her soul, man.

TMZ reports Parton was admitted to a hospital 0:16:18.030 --> 0:16:21.000 in Nashville last night with kidney issues and passed away 0:16:21.040 --> 0:16:24.160 this morning.

The country music legend had 0:16:36.710 --> 0:16:40.540 postponed her Las Vegas residency over those concerns, but was 0:16:40.580 --> 0:16:44.020 still moving ahead with her Broadway musical Dolly, a true 0:16:44.180 --> 0:16:48.130 original musical.

That's according to Community Health Northwest Chief Medical Officer, Dr. 0:23:15.000 --> 0:23:16.060 Joseph Klawitter. 0:23:16.500 --> 0:23:19.300 He was responding yesterday to the Florida Department of Health's 0:23:19.359 --> 0:23:23.960 recommendation to remove mandates for four childhood vaccines. The vaccines 0:23:24.000 --> 0:23:27.870 are for chickenpox, HIV, hepatitis B, and pneumococcal. 0:23:29.340 --> 0:23:29.899 Pneumococcal. 0:23:30.060 --> 0:23:30.660 There you go. 0:23:30.680 --> 0:23:31.820 Say it again. 0:23:31.840 --> 0:23:32.780 Pneumococcal pneumonia. 0:23:32.859 --> 0:23:34.040 Pneumococcal disease. 0:23:34.060 --> 0:23:34.460 Thank you. 0:23:34.480 --> 0:23:34.540 Dr. 0:23:37.440 --> 0:23:42.770 Clawwitter says he's worried this will lead to fewer vaccinations. 0:23:42.910 --> 0:23:43.910 Say those back to back. 0:23:44.130 --> 0:23:45.630 Clawwitter and pneumococcal. 0:23:46.290 --> 0:23:47.629 No. 0:23:47.690 --> 0:23:49.209 Jack, come on now. There we go, Jack. 0:23:49.250 --> 0:23:50.710 We're going to just do that the rest of the show. 0:23:50.770 --> 0:23:50.910 Jack. 0:23:51.750 --> 0:23:53.370 We're all calmed down because of Dolly. We're just going 0:23:53.390 --> 0:23:55.730 to do the pneumococcal stuff all day. 0:23:56.109 --> 0:23:56.649 Well, Dr. 0:23:56.710 --> 0:24:00.290 Clauwitter says he's worried this will lead to fewer vaccinations, 0:24:00.650 --> 0:24:04.410 less herd immunity, and more illness. He tells Wear News, 0:24:04.520 --> 0:24:07.619 if enough people are vaccinated against the disease, the chance 0:24:07.660 --> 0:24:11.720 of catching it naturally decreases. All right, there is a 0:24:11.780 --> 0:24:14.960 tropical wave forming in the Atlantic off the coast of Africa, 0:24:15.040 --> 0:24:16.920 but no need to panic just yet. 0:24:16.940 --> 0:24:18.920 It's just off the coast of Africa. 0:24:19.420 --> 0:24:22.110 So really... It would not make it towards any land 0:24:22.170 --> 0:24:25.680 area for probably over a week or so, maybe. 0:24:25.480 --> 0:24:26.080 Even two weeks. 0:24:26.480 --> 0:24:29.830 National Weather Service meteorologist George Rizzuto says they have no 0:24:29.920 --> 0:24:31.969 idea if it will be a threat to land, but 0:24:32.030 --> 0:24:34.510 if it does develop into a tropical depression, you guys 0:24:34.550 --> 0:24:34.990 get this. 0:24:37.109 --> 0:24:38.090 It will be named Dolly. 0:24:38.680 --> 0:24:40.210 No, come on. 0:24:40.250 --> 0:24:44.770 Dolly is the next named storm on the 2026 Atlantic hurricane. 0:24:44.790 --> 0:24:48.469 That's just coincidence, right? Either that or. 0:24:48.690 --> 0:24:51.770 Mother Nature is giving her the honor she deserves. 0:24:51.830 --> 0:24:53.850 They certainly didn't change it this afternoon, Jack. 0:24:53.869 --> 0:24:56.869 They didn't gather everybody at the National Weather Advisory Board. 0:24:56.890 --> 0:24:58.330 You know what? She just died. 0:24:58.390 --> 0:25:00.350 Let's name a deadly storm after her. 0:25:00.590 --> 0:25:02.969 I don't know where Deb gets her news from. It 0:25:03.030 --> 0:25:05.550 could very well be that they just came up with 0:25:05.570 --> 0:25:08.490 this this afternoon. She just gets it from Fox and NOAN. 0:25:08.850 --> 0:25:10.310 Everybody knows that. 0:25:10.690 --> 0:25:14.340 Yeah. I love you guys. 0:25:14.400 --> 0:25:17.359 Duke Energy is cleaning up a chemical spill in Pasco County, 0:25:17.400 --> 0:25:18.640 but there's nothing to see here. 0:25:19.060 --> 0:25:19.379 What? 0:25:19.560 --> 0:25:22.750 The company informed state regulators last week, yeah, there was 0:25:22.810 --> 0:25:26.030 a spill at a power plant in Holiday near the 0:25:26.170 --> 0:25:27.010 Anclote River. 0:25:27.430 --> 0:25:27.850 Don't worry. 0:25:28.350 --> 0:25:33.590 Over 3,000 gallons of sodium balsalphite spilled. 0:25:33.670 --> 0:25:35.350 Go ahead, Jack. There we go. 0:25:35.410 --> 0:25:38.310 I mean, you should pick easier, dude. You write this stuff. 0:25:38.350 --> 0:25:40.830 Why don't you make it more difficult on yourself? Just 0:25:41.030 --> 0:25:42.410 put some Mandarin in there for fun. 0:25:42.560 --> 0:25:44.080 They say some chemical. 0:25:44.800 --> 0:25:45.420 Right, exactly. 0:25:45.480 --> 0:25:46.139 A bad chemical. 0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:49.420 Because we have smart listeners, and they'll be like, oh, no, 0:25:49.540 --> 0:25:51.920 that's what this chemical does. You want to stay away 0:25:51.960 --> 0:25:54.359 from this. Duke said yesterday none of it made it 0:25:54.400 --> 0:25:58.139 to the river, though. A spokeswoman says the cleanup is 0:25:58.260 --> 0:26:01.419 almost complete and no actions or precautions are necessary for 0:26:01.460 --> 0:26:06.850 those who live near the plant. Do I sound like 0:26:06.890 --> 0:26:09.109 I believe him? That's my favorite thing. 0:26:09.130 --> 0:26:09.830 Hey, everybody, don't worry. 0:26:09.850 --> 0:26:12.010 I didn't make it to the river. Trust us. 0:26:12.070 --> 0:26:13.750 We put up a dam and we got a couple 0:26:13.790 --> 0:26:15.610 guys out there with rubber gloves and they caught all 0:26:15.650 --> 0:26:19.300 of it. Everybody's safe. Go for a swim today. 0:26:19.320 --> 0:26:22.820 The only reason we laugh is so that we don't cry. 0:26:22.840 --> 0:26:23.280 Exactly. 0:26:23.300 --> 0:26:25.640 It's so crazy that they expect you to believe this stuff. 0:26:25.740 --> 0:26:27.240 That's the thing that's most insulting. 0:26:27.270 --> 0:26:27.790 That's why I laugh. 0:26:27.950 --> 0:26:29.810 I laugh at how insulting it is. 0:26:29.930 --> 0:26:30.730 Hey, everybody, we got it. 0:26:31.150 --> 0:26:31.510 We're good. 0:26:32.550 --> 0:26:34.629 We got Phil and Tom down there. And let me 0:26:34.650 --> 0:26:37.770 tell you, those guys got giant hands, and they're very committed. 0:26:38.170 --> 0:26:38.770 And sponges. 0:26:38.970 --> 0:26:39.650 Yeah, you're fine. 0:26:39.770 --> 0:26:42.810 The Florida Department of Environmental Protection tells the Tampa Bay 0:26:42.850 --> 0:26:48.000 Times there have been no impact to local waterways. Meanwhile, 0:26:48.080 --> 0:26:50.939 a sewer project is disturbing residents in Orange County and 0:26:51.000 --> 0:26:54.110 some question if it's worth it. The county closed part 0:26:54.150 --> 0:26:56.909 of Thompson Road yesterday near Apopka as part of the 0:26:56.950 --> 0:27:00.689 plan to convert septic tank owners near Recaiva Springs to 0:27:00.710 --> 0:27:01.629 the sewer system. 0:27:01.770 --> 0:27:04.130 Yeah, they did that in Eustis two years ago. Very 0:27:04.170 --> 0:27:05.690 same thing. They went out to people and said, hey, look, 0:27:05.730 --> 0:27:08.729 if you are near a body of water, if your 0:27:08.750 --> 0:27:11.340 property sheds to any body of water, lake or whatever, 0:27:11.359 --> 0:27:13.740 give us a call. We'll replace your septic tank and 0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:16.560 we'll replace all that stuff. And then they'll maintain it 0:27:16.600 --> 0:27:18.240 for a certain amount of money, which is dirt cheap, 0:27:18.280 --> 0:27:19.619 by the way. It's only a few bucks a month. 0:27:20.080 --> 0:27:21.840 And it has been a godsend. It really has. 0:27:21.920 --> 0:27:24.420 Well, it's the upfront cost for a lot of folks, right? 0:27:24.800 --> 0:27:27.260 So about 2,000 homes are affected. And one of those 0:27:27.300 --> 0:27:31.100 homeowners isn't sure the costs are being distributed fairly. So 0:27:31.160 --> 0:27:34.179 Sherry Brown estimates the project will cost her around. 0:27:33.900 --> 0:27:36.720 $ 10, 000. 0:27:34.840 --> 0:27:39.359 And while she supports protecting Wekiva Springs, she wonders how 0:27:39.460 --> 0:27:42.660 much of the pollution reported there is actually coming from 0:27:43.000 --> 0:27:46.550 her septic systems. She tells News 6 she lives far 0:27:46.609 --> 0:27:49.030 away from the spring, and she'd like to see proof 0:27:49.090 --> 0:27:51.649 the pollution is coming from so far away. 0:27:51.670 --> 0:27:52.330 Yeah. 0:27:52.410 --> 0:27:53.190 Yeah. 0:27:53.410 --> 0:27:55.270 It's going to be hard to do that because it's 0:27:55.290 --> 0:27:57.570 just the way that the water seeps over time. 0:27:57.670 --> 0:27:58.170 Exactly. 0:27:58.210 --> 0:27:59.950 It's not like it's running out of her septic tank 0:27:59.990 --> 0:28:02.190 right down to the river through a conduit. It doesn't 0:28:02.210 --> 0:28:05.020 work like that. It gets into the water table and 0:28:05.040 --> 0:28:06.619 then leaks in from there. I mean, it's the same 0:28:06.640 --> 0:28:08.359 thing that happened over at the Indian River Lagoon. It's 0:28:08.380 --> 0:28:09.380 the same exact thing. 0:28:09.460 --> 0:28:09.680 Right. 0:28:09.780 --> 0:28:10.300 Exactly. 0:28:10.500 --> 0:28:10.920 Exactly. 0:28:11.510 --> 0:28:14.149 All right, those who oppose plans to make changes at 0:28:14.170 --> 0:28:17.370 an Orlando attraction can claim victory. The city announced yesterday 0:28:17.510 --> 0:28:20.710 it will not move forward with its plans for Harry P. 0:28:20.750 --> 0:28:21.390 Lou Gardens. 0:28:21.470 --> 0:28:25.060 It's a 50-acre botanical garden on North Forest Ave. near 0:28:25.119 --> 0:28:29.659 Lake Rowena. Absolutely beautiful place to visit. Orlando officials propose 0:28:29.700 --> 0:28:34.119 spending $ 100 million, though, to add amenities to the park. 0:28:34.950 --> 0:28:36.370 A hundred million dollars? 0:28:36.430 --> 0:28:38.450 Like a cafe and shops. 0:28:39.030 --> 0:28:42.650 And you know, parking is already so easy to get 0:28:42.690 --> 0:28:43.210 to Lou Gardens. 0:28:43.230 --> 0:28:45.040 There is no parking. It's on the side of the road. 0:28:45.190 --> 0:28:48.060 That's the facetious part of the joke. 0:28:48.240 --> 0:28:50.860 Are they building a parking garage? No, not that I'd 0:28:50.900 --> 0:28:52.440 heard of. I'd even heard that at one point there 0:28:52.480 --> 0:28:54.300 was even a band shell that was going. 0:28:54.180 --> 0:28:54.860 To be proposed. 0:28:55.100 --> 0:28:55.780 Good Lord. 0:28:55.840 --> 0:28:59.560 But residents complained the changes would lead to more traffic 0:28:59.620 --> 0:29:02.540 and noise. Because, right, with their plant and garden sale, 0:29:02.920 --> 0:29:05.160 I mean, to watch Ross and Olivia have to go through, 0:29:05.200 --> 0:29:07.840 I mean. Glenn usually helps out, but you have to 0:29:07.890 --> 0:29:10.320 plan parking as much as anything else when you go 0:29:10.360 --> 0:29:10.800 visit there. 0:29:10.860 --> 0:29:12.620 So when I lived in Baldwin, which is literally a 0:29:12.760 --> 0:29:15.840 mile from this place, and they did that plant sale, 0:29:15.880 --> 0:29:18.440 which is one of the biggest events of that entire area, 0:29:18.500 --> 0:29:19.320 and I'm not joking. 0:29:19.380 --> 0:29:21.380 Oh, it's as big as the Winter Park Sidewalk Art Festival. 0:29:21.400 --> 0:29:23.220 And it's literally right down the street from the hippest 0:29:23.240 --> 0:29:27.470 part of Orlando, that whole Easton Market and the brewery 0:29:27.490 --> 0:29:31.210 down there, Red Light, Red Light. And it's so funny. 0:29:31.330 --> 0:29:34.150 People will go and park their cars there the night before. 0:29:35.050 --> 0:29:36.730 Like they will drive down there with their car and 0:29:36.770 --> 0:29:39.770 they'll park a car there and then Uber there so 0:29:39.810 --> 0:29:42.690 they can bring their plants home. That's how crazy the 0:29:42.730 --> 0:29:43.310 parking is. 0:29:43.870 --> 0:29:46.930 So you can imagine $ 100 million worth of new shops 0:29:46.990 --> 0:29:49.330 and cafes would have made that place untenable. 0:29:49.350 --> 0:29:50.890 All right. 0:29:50.970 --> 0:29:53.800 Two of Florida's three NFL teams are getting in extra 0:29:53.840 --> 0:29:56.320 work this week before wrapping up the preseason. I bring 0:29:56.340 --> 0:29:59.190 this to you guys just to see your excitement. For 0:29:59.210 --> 0:30:01.650 this time of the year, it's finally here. So the 0:30:01.690 --> 0:30:05.250 Jacksonville Jaguars and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are holding joint practices 0:30:05.310 --> 0:30:09.690 today and tomorrow in Jacksonville, giving starters and roster hopefuls 0:30:09.750 --> 0:30:13.580 valuable game-like repetitions. The Bucs wrap up the preseason when 0:30:13.600 --> 0:30:16.959 they take on the Jags Friday night at Everbank Stadium. Meanwhile, 0:30:16.980 --> 0:30:20.340 the Miami Dolphins will host the Atlanta Falcons on Friday 0:30:20.480 --> 0:30:24.800 in their preseason finale. And what better way to wash 0:30:24.900 --> 0:30:29.160 up after a rough-and-tumble football game? They just smell like 0:30:29.220 --> 0:30:29.810 Mountain Dew. 0:30:30.310 --> 0:30:30.950 What? 0:30:31.630 --> 0:30:34.430 Yeah, Mountain Dew fans can now smell like their favorite soda. 0:30:34.710 --> 0:30:35.550 Wow, really? 0:30:35.810 --> 0:30:39.170 Men's grooming company, Duke Cannon. Did they learn how to 0:30:39.270 --> 0:30:44.770 bottle diabetes? There is no more butch. 0:30:44.310 --> 0:30:45.570 Name than Duke Cannon. 0:30:45.690 --> 0:30:47.010 I can spray diabetes. 0:30:47.270 --> 0:30:49.970 Oh, no. You're going to lather up, Jimmy, with that loofah. 0:30:50.650 --> 0:30:53.370 Men's grooming company, Duke Cannon, has teamed up with Mountain 0:30:53.390 --> 0:30:56.490 Dew for a line of products. Mountain Dew scented body washes. 0:30:57.010 --> 0:31:02.740 And listen carefully. Soap Pucks, Pucks as in P-U-C-K-S. 0:31:02.840 --> 0:31:03.460 Soap Puck. 0:31:03.700 --> 0:31:07.219 Puck are now available at select Walmarts. Customers who've been 0:31:07.280 --> 0:31:09.400 able to get their hands on the collaboration have said 0:31:09.700 --> 0:31:11.520 they smell pretty close to the actual soda. 0:31:11.660 --> 0:31:11.980 Really? 0:31:12.100 --> 0:31:13.580 And who doesn't want to attract flies? 0:31:13.980 --> 0:31:14.340 Exactly. 0:31:15.540 --> 0:31:18.500 It's syrup. It really is. Have you ever poured a 0:31:18.520 --> 0:31:19.020 Mountain Dew? 0:31:19.380 --> 0:31:20.380 Yeah. Oh my God. 0:31:20.420 --> 0:31:23.460 It takes a minute. Yahoo! 0:31:23.540 --> 0:31:24.160 Mountain Dew. 0:31:24.220 --> 0:31:27.160 Yeah, man. I didn't know you had that. It takes 0:31:27.220 --> 0:31:28.610 a minute. You know why? 0:31:28.620 --> 0:31:31.590 You honestly know why Mountain Dew was actually invented? 0:31:31.830 --> 0:31:32.370 Moonshine. 0:31:32.410 --> 0:31:36.250 Yeah, to mix with moonshine. That's why it's called Mountain Dew. 0:31:36.550 --> 0:31:38.390 Mountain Dew is also another word for moonshine. 0:31:38.900 --> 0:31:39.340 Really? 0:31:39.360 --> 0:31:42.400 Yeah, Mountain Dew is a slang term for moonshine. 0:31:42.500 --> 0:31:43.600 Yahoo! 0:31:43.640 --> 0:31:44.220 Mountain Dew. 0:31:44.300 --> 0:31:47.650 The citrus soda was actually built to mix with moonshine 0:31:47.670 --> 0:31:48.690 so you could wash it down. 0:31:48.710 --> 0:31:50.050 Oh, I can't. 0:31:50.670 --> 0:31:54.330 Well, this marks the latest outside-the-box collaboration for Mountain Dew 0:31:54.370 --> 0:31:57.670 with others including a Rawlings baseball glove. I don't know 0:31:57.750 --> 0:32:02.200 what that's all about, but a birthday cake-flavored Slurpee with 7-Eleven. 0:32:03.390 --> 0:32:09.290 A birthday cake flavored Slurpee? What is happening? And I 0:32:09.330 --> 0:32:10.270 don't hate this idea. 0:32:10.290 --> 0:32:13.370 I want to figure out what the Rawlings baseball glove 0:32:13.410 --> 0:32:13.910 has to do with. 0:32:13.950 --> 0:32:15.910 Dolly passes away an hour ago and the world is 0:32:15.930 --> 0:32:19.860 losing it. You've had birthday cake flavored ice cream before, right? 0:32:20.360 --> 0:32:20.660 No. 0:32:21.000 --> 0:32:21.480 Really? 0:32:21.620 --> 0:32:21.940 No. 0:32:21.960 --> 0:32:25.340 I'm a grown ass man, Jack.

Get out of here. I was born yesterday. 0:32:57.490 --> 0:33:05.340 And that concludes your JCS News. I don't know what's 0:33:05.380 --> 0:33:05.940 going on. 0:33:07.990 --> 0:33:08.670 We drinking today? 0:33:09.150 --> 0:33:09.500 Yeah. 0:33:09.600 --> 0:33:11.420 It sounds like it.

Step up, girl. 0:33:28.960 --> 0:33:29.260 All right. 0:33:29.280 --> 0:33:33.719 Back in a sec. Mountain Dew was invented as a 0:33:34.140 --> 0:33:36.520 chaser for moonshine, but originally.. 0:33:36.920 --> 0:33:37.840 It tasted a. 0:33:37.900 --> 0:33:40.800 Lot more like Sprite does today. 0:33:40.820 --> 0:33:44.520 I don't believe it got its iconic flavor and color 0:33:44.600 --> 0:33:46.340 until the early 70s. 0:33:46.420 --> 0:33:47.220 I think. 0:33:47.740 --> 0:33:48.740 Yahoo! 0:33:48.840 --> 0:33:49.480 Mountain Dew. 0:33:51.030 --> 0:33:52.460 You really have to ask what's going on with the 0:33:52.510 --> 0:33:53.770 birthday cake slurpee, Jimmy. 0:33:53.910 --> 0:33:54.190 Come on. 0:33:54.530 --> 0:33:57.070 America is asserting its caloric dominance. 0:33:57.770 --> 0:33:58.730 Yahoo! 0:33:58.870 --> 0:34:00.370 Mountain Dew. I appreciate that laugh. 0:34:01.030 --> 0:34:05.230 I didn't get my vaccine feeling in my pneumococcus. 0:34:05.810 --> 0:34:06.310 Ha ha ha! 0:34:07.850 --> 0:34:10.609 Somebody texted us about Mountain Dew being, they call that 0:34:10.650 --> 0:34:11.969 a redneck margarita. 0:34:12.070 --> 0:34:12.390 Oh, yeah. 0:34:12.660 --> 0:34:12.859 Yeah. 0:34:13.010 --> 0:34:15.200 I mean, yeah, I guess. I don't know. 0:34:15.219 --> 0:34:18.120 I didn't think you could mix anything with Moonshine. 0:34:18.300 --> 0:34:19.040 With Mountain Dew? 0:34:19.060 --> 0:34:19.459 Oh, yeah. 0:34:19.500 --> 0:34:22.180 Moonshine, that's what they flavored all the time. It's basically 0:34:22.200 --> 0:34:24.219 pure alcohol. It's like when you were a kid and 0:34:24.260 --> 0:34:28.440 you drank what they called Everclear. Everclear. It's Moonshine. It's 0:34:28.460 --> 0:34:31.580 just mash. It's the liquor that you would put in 0:34:31.640 --> 0:34:34.460 barrels to turn into other liquor. So it's just pure, 0:34:35.100 --> 0:34:37.380 I think, ethylene alcohol. I don't know if it's alcohol, 0:34:37.400 --> 0:34:39.759 pure alcohol, but that's what it is. 0:34:39.820 --> 0:34:41.609 That was the stuff that never froze when you made 0:34:41.620 --> 0:34:42.270 Jell-O shots. 0:34:42.370 --> 0:34:45.330 Yeah, man. And then, you know, that's like when you 0:34:45.510 --> 0:34:48.230 make it, like the best I have is peach. And 0:34:48.250 --> 0:34:50.250 then the apple pie moonshine I have when I go 0:34:50.310 --> 0:34:52.230 up to play my golf tournament, there's a guy from 0:34:52.310 --> 0:34:55.569 Punta Gorda that always brings a couple pints of that 0:34:55.650 --> 0:34:57.430 up there. And that is the most dangerous stuff on 0:34:57.469 --> 0:34:58.029 planet Earth. 0:34:58.210 --> 0:34:58.870 Well, I don't know. 0:34:58.950 --> 0:35:00.890 Saturday night, Jack and I may be going to Ma's 0:35:00.930 --> 0:35:03.089 Mountain Moonshine, trying out a little redneck margarita. 0:35:03.320 --> 0:35:04.359 I was just over there the other day. 0:35:04.600 --> 0:35:05.040 Oh, really? 0:35:05.060 --> 0:35:07.890 Oh, yeah, not bad at all. Tori got something over there. 0:35:08.230 --> 0:35:10.070 I ordered something that was akin to a margarita. It 0:35:10.110 --> 0:35:12.190 wasn't the best thing, but she ordered this other thing 0:35:12.210 --> 0:35:13.870 that was kind of a fruity summer kind of drink. 0:35:13.890 --> 0:35:16.310 And I was like, oh, yeah, I could change my 0:35:16.430 --> 0:35:20.150 eye color with that. In about five seconds, I could 0:35:20.190 --> 0:35:22.660 literally change my eye color drinking those things. All right, 0:35:22.680 --> 0:35:23.739 welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show. 0:35:23.800 --> 0:35:24.060 I'm Jim. 0:35:24.080 --> 0:35:24.520 There's Deb. 0:35:24.580 --> 0:35:25.020 Hello. 0:35:25.060 --> 0:35:26.379 Jack is her as well. 0:35:26.440 --> 0:35:26.580 Yep. 0:35:28.330 --> 0:35:30.870 We are still kind of reeling over the death of 0:35:30.910 --> 0:35:32.779 the great Dolly Parton. We do have a lot of 0:35:32.800 --> 0:35:36.710 stuff to talk about today. But it's kind of wild. 0:35:36.730 --> 0:35:36.989 You know what? 0:35:37.010 --> 0:35:38.550 Let's do this real quick. We have a couple of 0:35:38.570 --> 0:35:39.730 seconds before we get to the top of the hour. 0:35:39.750 --> 0:35:40.190 Why don't you do this? 0:35:40.230 --> 0:35:41.390 It's new coming up here in a minute. We'll go 0:35:41.430 --> 0:35:44.589 over Ross's choice and then find out what a jackass offer. 0:35:44.650 --> 0:35:46.109 But I pulled this yesterday. We never had a chance 0:35:46.130 --> 0:35:47.629 to talk about it. But now that we're talking about 0:35:47.690 --> 0:35:51.470 Mountain Dew, this is a story I saw on Reddit. 0:35:51.489 --> 0:35:53.650 Let me see where I can source this from. It 0:35:54.680 --> 0:35:59.180 doesn't say. This is just a map of the U.S., Jack. 0:35:59.260 --> 0:35:59.400 Yep. 0:35:59.860 --> 0:36:03.320 And it is the most popular sodas in each state. 0:36:04.120 --> 0:36:04.600 Ooh. 0:36:04.800 --> 0:36:06.280 Okay, let's just start with Florida. 0:36:06.980 --> 0:36:09.140 Well, you know the southern states. There's got to be 0:36:09.180 --> 0:36:10.660 a Mountain Dew somewhere in the south. 0:36:12.060 --> 0:36:13.609 There is a Mountain Dew somewhere in the south. 0:36:13.640 --> 0:36:15.750 Actually, can I tell you something? 0:36:15.989 --> 0:36:18.750 There are one. Let me count them. One, two, three, four, five, 0:36:18.890 --> 0:36:22.129 six states that are Mountain Dew crazy. Matter of fact, 0:36:22.150 --> 0:36:24.790 can I tell you something? Diet Mountain Dew also makes 0:36:24.870 --> 0:36:27.810 the list as well. Are they all part of the SEC? 0:36:28.070 --> 0:36:28.550 Yeah. 0:36:30.390 --> 0:36:33.790 One is a major player in the SEC. Alabama. One's 0:36:33.810 --> 0:36:35.290 having a runoff today. Oh. 0:36:35.810 --> 0:36:36.770 Oh, South Carolina. 0:36:36.810 --> 0:36:37.850 South Carolina. That's right. 0:36:37.890 --> 0:36:39.590 South Carolina is a Mountain Dew state. 0:36:39.710 --> 0:36:40.250 Really? 0:36:40.469 --> 0:36:43.279 Another one. As a matter of fact, not only this one, 0:36:43.300 --> 0:36:45.100 but his little brother lives just a little bit to 0:36:45.140 --> 0:36:45.600 the right of him. 0:36:46.520 --> 0:36:48.080 Virginia, West Virginia. Absolutely. 0:36:48.180 --> 0:36:49.980 Both Mountain Dew peoples. 0:36:50.040 --> 0:36:51.400 You know Virginia had to be. 0:36:51.420 --> 0:36:52.239 Yeah, yeah. 0:36:52.719 --> 0:36:55.450 And then Diet Mountain Dew is up here in what 0:36:55.469 --> 0:36:59.219 would be your Dakotas area. And I think Michigan or 0:36:59.239 --> 0:37:02.140 is that Illinois is a diet Mountain Dew place as well. 0:37:02.780 --> 0:37:03.100 Fibs. 0:37:03.700 --> 0:37:03.899 Okay. 0:37:03.920 --> 0:37:04.839 Where do you think Florida is? 0:37:06.060 --> 0:37:06.320 Dr. 0:37:06.340 --> 0:37:07.890 Pepper. 0:37:07.930 --> 0:37:09.450 Rum and Coke. We got to be Coca-Cola. 0:37:09.489 --> 0:37:10.470 Coca-Cola is the answer. 0:37:10.489 --> 0:37:10.910 There you go. 0:37:10.969 --> 0:37:13.029 We're the capital Cooper Libre here. 0:37:13.110 --> 0:37:15.230 And Georgia. It definitely got to be Coca-Cola, right? 0:37:15.290 --> 0:37:15.489 Right. 0:37:15.550 --> 0:37:16.410 Because that's where it is. 0:37:16.430 --> 0:37:16.870 Right. 0:37:17.310 --> 0:37:18.810 So is Pepsi North Carolina? 0:37:19.989 --> 0:37:23.009 Ooh, Pepsi's got to be Texas with boiled peanuts in it. 0:37:23.130 --> 0:37:27.820 You ready for this? North Carolina has only one. They're 0:37:27.840 --> 0:37:31.439 the only state where they say this is the number 0:37:31.520 --> 0:37:33.739 one soda. And if I let you guys guess until 0:37:33.760 --> 0:37:35.779 the end of the show, you wouldn't get it. Root beer. 0:37:35.840 --> 0:37:36.120 Tab. 0:37:36.140 --> 0:37:36.920 Sundrop. 0:37:37.980 --> 0:37:40.750 Sundrop. Interesting. 0:37:40.770 --> 0:37:44.270 Have you ever heard of Sundrop Soda? I think Sundrop 0:37:44.330 --> 0:37:47.810 is akin to your Mountain Dews and your Citrus Sodas, 0:37:47.850 --> 0:37:51.489 I believe. But Pepsi was created in North Carolina, right? 0:37:52.250 --> 0:37:52.590 Pepsi? 0:37:52.730 --> 0:37:53.130 I don't know. 0:37:53.150 --> 0:37:54.930 I thought Dr. Pepper's in Texas. 0:37:54.969 --> 0:37:55.339 I know that. 0:37:55.380 --> 0:37:55.890 Pepsi. 0:37:56.160 --> 0:37:56.410 Yeah. 0:37:56.640 --> 0:38:00.040 And Coke was Atlanta. Coke was Georgia, but actually the 0:38:00.120 --> 0:38:02.779 money started in North Florida. You know that, right? 0:38:02.940 --> 0:38:03.060 No. 0:38:03.680 --> 0:38:04.100 What was that? 0:38:04.160 --> 0:38:04.520 What was that? 0:38:04.900 --> 0:38:08.770 Coca-Cola, the money to gather to make Coca-Cola. There's a 0:38:08.810 --> 0:38:10.830 small town in North Florida right there on the border 0:38:10.850 --> 0:38:13.170 of Georgia and Florida. where the guy who invented the 0:38:13.190 --> 0:38:15.109 thing of Coke went to the townspeople and his friends 0:38:15.150 --> 0:38:16.989 and said, hey, look, give me all your money. I've 0:38:17.010 --> 0:38:19.930 got a game-changing idea here. And the people who bought 0:38:20.050 --> 0:38:24.149 in are obviously incredibly wealthy, and the people who didn't aren't. 0:38:24.350 --> 0:38:26.510 Pepsi's from New Bern, North Carolina. 0:38:26.530 --> 0:38:26.950 Is it really? 0:38:26.989 --> 0:38:28.950 I did not know that. I did not know that. 0:38:29.310 --> 0:38:31.730 They go to Sundrop. What is the most dominant soda? 0:38:31.750 --> 0:38:32.609 Let me give you this count here. 0:38:32.670 --> 0:38:35.410 One, two, three, four. That's eight. That's 12. That is 16, 17, 0:38:35.390 --> 0:38:36.040 18 states. Diet Coke. 0:38:41.330 --> 0:38:43.650 It's not Coke? It is not Coke. 0:38:44.350 --> 0:38:45.350 Oh, I said Diet Coke. 0:38:45.370 --> 0:38:49.930 Coke, predominantly only popular in three states, Louisiana, Florida, and Georgia. 0:38:49.989 --> 0:38:50.650 You're kidding. 0:38:50.690 --> 0:38:51.200 Nope, that's it. 0:38:51.390 --> 0:38:52.129 Coca-Cola? 0:38:52.170 --> 0:38:52.730 Coca-Cola. 0:38:52.969 --> 0:38:54.910 It doesn't mean that they don't sell well. They're just 0:38:54.950 --> 0:38:57.830 not the predominant soda in that market. I mean, they 0:38:57.850 --> 0:38:59.720 can lose by 1% and still lose, you know? 0:39:00.110 --> 0:39:00.640 Sprite. 0:39:00.820 --> 0:39:01.070 No. 0:39:01.380 --> 0:39:04.480 Sprite doesn't even make the list on anywhere on the list. 0:39:04.739 --> 0:39:05.340 You're kidding. 0:39:05.360 --> 0:39:07.920 Sprite's nowhere on the state. It's not the number one 0:39:07.940 --> 0:39:08.700 soda in any of the states. 0:39:08.719 --> 0:39:09.740 Where is Dr. Pepper? 0:39:09.780 --> 0:39:10.660 That's what I want to know. 0:39:11.870 --> 0:39:13.350 All of them. Really? 0:39:13.390 --> 0:39:13.450 Dr. 0:39:13.469 --> 0:39:17.110 Pepper, by far, by far, is the most popular soda 0:39:17.150 --> 0:39:17.670 in America. 0:39:17.750 --> 0:39:18.450 Are you kidding? 0:39:18.469 --> 0:39:18.529 Dr. 0:39:18.810 --> 0:39:19.460 Pepper, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 0:39:19.440 --> 0:39:21.570 17 states. And that doesn't count the Diet Dr. Peppers 0:39:21.590 --> 0:39:23.270 that also have a couple as well. And yet, you 0:39:23.310 --> 0:39:23.690 can go to.. 0:39:29.980 --> 0:39:32.620 So many restaurants and it's a crapshoot whether they'll even 0:39:32.680 --> 0:39:33.040 have it. 0:39:33.040 --> 0:39:33.100 100%. 0:39:33.080 --> 0:39:33.820 That's the truth. 0:39:34.000 --> 0:39:35.350 All my life. Yeah. 0:39:35.410 --> 0:39:35.649 Yeah. 0:39:36.030 --> 0:39:37.870 Because I used to only drink that, and then I 0:39:37.910 --> 0:39:40.210 switched to Coke. It was just easier to get. Exactly, 0:39:40.230 --> 0:39:42.710 because they'd be like, no, we got Mr. Pibb. 0:39:42.750 --> 0:39:44.109 You're like, that's not Dr. 0:39:44.130 --> 0:39:44.830 Pepper. 0:39:44.930 --> 0:39:46.830 You guys are so right that when we go to places, 0:39:46.930 --> 0:39:49.549 the first thing my wife asks the server is if 0:39:49.590 --> 0:39:50.170 they have Dr. 0:39:50.210 --> 0:39:50.470 Pepper. 0:39:50.510 --> 0:39:52.629 When they say no, it ruins the rest of her meal. 0:39:52.850 --> 0:39:55.170 She likes it so much with food. That's the only 0:39:55.250 --> 0:39:57.149 one she really drinks. She doesn't drink any other soda 0:39:57.170 --> 0:40:00.529 than Dr. Pepper. Coke Zero in California. 0:40:00.770 --> 0:40:01.190 Of course. 0:40:01.870 --> 0:40:03.400 The odd one is this, and this is what I 0:40:03.390 --> 0:40:06.660 want to talk about a little bit yesterday. One, two, three, four, five. 0:40:07.500 --> 0:40:14.839 From New York up, and I'm being dead serious. From 0:40:14.880 --> 0:40:18.730 New York up, including Michigan, what is the most popular soda? 0:40:18.969 --> 0:40:22.860 We got to go. And I can't understand it. 0:40:22.890 --> 0:40:24.050 You said Sprite doesn't. 0:40:24.110 --> 0:40:28.690 Yeah, ginger ale. Why is the Northeast dominated by ginger ale? 0:40:28.710 --> 0:40:30.969 Because that's such a good drink mixer. Is that what 0:40:31.010 --> 0:40:31.290 it is? 0:40:31.370 --> 0:40:33.589 I'm just thinking it's all the politicians and everybody else 0:40:33.670 --> 0:40:34.730 up there drinking highballs. 0:40:34.770 --> 0:40:36.010 Like ginger ale, man. 0:40:36.070 --> 0:40:41.500 Canada Dry or Schweppes ginger ale destroys that Northeast area. 0:40:41.620 --> 0:40:44.219 Like almost every state up there is all that. Everybody else, Dr. 0:40:44.239 --> 0:40:44.540 Pepper. 0:40:44.580 --> 0:40:46.120 Got to be a drink mixer. 0:40:46.140 --> 0:40:49.580 All right. 407-916-1041. Text us at 77031.

Officers are out there in 0:42:22.730 --> 0:42:23.810 Winter Park. 0:42:23.830 --> 0:42:24.049 407-917-1718. 0:42:24.130 --> 0:42:26.759 Car crash, call Klausman. Of course, we'll talk to Glenn 0:42:26.880 --> 0:42:29.759 on Thursday for Colbert Court. Until then, one of the 0:42:29.800 --> 0:42:31.879 members of the show will pick something to watch, read, 0:42:31.920 --> 0:42:34.259 or listen to. And then, of course, we'll reconvene every 0:42:34.300 --> 0:42:36.200 single Tuesday at 4 o'clock and do that very thing. 0:42:36.239 --> 0:42:37.480 This week, it was Ross. 0:42:38.000 --> 0:42:39.759 And then we'll find out what the listeners have for 0:42:39.800 --> 0:42:42.400 us because every other after Ross, we put it up 0:42:42.480 --> 0:42:45.800 on our Facebook page, gym members. And we get somebody 0:42:45.820 --> 0:42:49.620 to offer something. And that's what we did. Indeed, we did. 0:42:50.440 --> 0:42:55.750 However, Ross's pick was about Antoine Griezmann. In case you 0:42:55.810 --> 0:42:59.319 did not know, Antoine Griezmann now plays for Orlando City. 0:43:00.120 --> 0:43:02.680 You could say he's our star player. He scored two 0:43:02.700 --> 0:43:05.739 goals Saturday night. helping Orlando City, and they come from 0:43:05.760 --> 0:43:09.540 behind victory over Real Salt Lake. However, this is his 0:43:09.580 --> 0:43:12.359 first year in MLS, and he just joined the team 0:43:12.400 --> 0:43:16.280 following the World Cup. Prior to that, he played in Europe. 0:43:16.300 --> 0:43:20.500 Played for La Liga. Yep, and this is, and a 0:43:20.520 --> 0:43:22.760 few different teams, and that's kind of what the video 0:43:22.780 --> 0:43:25.580 is about. It gives you a little history on who 0:43:25.739 --> 0:43:31.000 Antoine Griezmann is, and it's also, it's called Griezmann's Curse 0:43:31.140 --> 0:43:34.910 a year too late three times because Because he always.. 0:43:34.800 --> 0:43:37.430 He joined the team right after they won the World Cup. 0:43:37.510 --> 0:43:39.190 And they didn't make it back. And they didn't make 0:43:39.250 --> 0:43:41.330 it back. Or one of the league trophies. 0:43:41.370 --> 0:43:42.029 Exactly right. 0:43:42.050 --> 0:43:46.030 So it was like he missed it just three times 0:43:46.070 --> 0:43:49.109 he was a year too late. However, it's a good 0:43:49.150 --> 0:43:52.710 primer on who he is and how successful he was 0:43:52.830 --> 0:43:54.870 as a player. So it gives you a little more 0:43:54.969 --> 0:44:01.029 understanding to who is now the most famous... Orlando City Lion. Yeah, 0:44:01.070 --> 0:44:03.250 we've had some good runs here with guys that have 0:44:03.270 --> 0:44:04.770 come out of that league. You know, we had Kaká, 0:44:05.430 --> 0:44:07.279 who at one point was considered one of the gods 0:44:07.320 --> 0:44:10.640 of soccer over there in the Premier League. And now 0:44:10.680 --> 0:44:13.359 we have Antoine Griezmann. Now, look, I don't know anything 0:44:13.380 --> 0:44:15.219 about this guy. I learned a little bit today. And 0:44:15.260 --> 0:44:16.859 it's so funny because Deb and I were talking about 0:44:16.890 --> 0:44:18.989 it before the show. We're like, we hired a guy 0:44:19.010 --> 0:44:22.430 that's cursed. It seems that we brought a guy onto 0:44:22.469 --> 0:44:24.170 the team who was cursed for winning. 0:44:24.250 --> 0:44:24.570 Yeah. 0:44:24.650 --> 0:44:26.730 It was, this is not a video. 0:44:26.770 --> 0:44:29.590 Like if you're an Orlando city fan and you're super excited, 0:44:29.630 --> 0:44:30.969 this is kind of like a little bit of a 0:44:31.090 --> 0:44:31.839 bummer video. 0:44:31.980 --> 0:44:34.840 It's like all about the chances that he's missed. 0:44:35.260 --> 0:44:38.160 So you could look at it that way, or you 0:44:38.180 --> 0:44:42.140 can look at his curse was joining a team after 0:44:42.160 --> 0:44:46.029 they already won. Well, Orlando city didn't already win. I mean, 0:44:46.050 --> 0:44:48.469 they had that cup win that, you know, we went 0:44:48.510 --> 0:44:49.350 to one of those games. 0:44:49.390 --> 0:44:50.689 Yeah. a few years ago. 0:44:50.850 --> 0:44:54.450 However, so it's not like he missed anything with the 0:44:54.489 --> 0:44:57.660 Orlando City. So the only place to go is up. 0:44:57.850 --> 0:44:58.330 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:44:59.090 --> 0:45:00.880 And hopefully that's exactly what we'll do. No, he just 0:45:00.890 --> 0:45:02.100 had a win, right? You were at the game where 0:45:02.120 --> 0:45:04.500 he won just recently, right? He scored twice. 0:45:04.520 --> 0:45:04.940 Two games. 0:45:04.980 --> 0:45:05.899 You know what they call that? 0:45:06.060 --> 0:45:07.920 They call that a not a hat trick. 0:45:08.540 --> 0:45:13.660 But it starts with a B. Come on. I know 0:45:13.719 --> 0:45:16.820 you know this one. I don't know it. 0:45:17.810 --> 0:45:18.969 A brace? 0:45:19.070 --> 0:45:19.370 Yes. 0:45:19.810 --> 0:45:21.850 So when you score two goals in one game, that's 0:45:21.910 --> 0:45:22.410 a brace? 0:45:22.430 --> 0:45:25.010 Correct. Did not know that. Yes. I'll be damned. 0:45:25.730 --> 0:45:26.890 Learning something new every day. 0:45:26.930 --> 0:45:29.620 But they call it hat trick in hockey and in soccer. 0:45:29.680 --> 0:45:31.399 If you score three, is it still a hat trick 0:45:31.440 --> 0:45:33.820 in soccer? If you score three goals? 0:45:34.239 --> 0:45:34.520 Yeah. 0:45:34.820 --> 0:45:41.340 Yeah, yeah. I think hat trick now. Because in every sport. 0:45:41.860 --> 0:45:42.600 No, no, no. 0:45:42.700 --> 0:45:43.140 Okay, what? 0:45:44.840 --> 0:45:45.220 Oh, yeah. 0:45:45.300 --> 0:45:46.319 In bowling, it's a turkey. 0:45:46.469 --> 0:45:46.950 Oh, that's right. 0:45:46.989 --> 0:45:47.290 You're right. 0:45:48.170 --> 0:45:50.810 In bowling, it's a turkey. Three strikes in a row 0:45:50.870 --> 0:45:53.690 is a turkey. They're not using that in soccer. Two 0:45:53.730 --> 0:45:55.770 strikes in a row is you didn't get the turkey. 0:45:57.010 --> 0:45:59.410 You know what a nutmeg is? A nutmeg? 0:45:59.550 --> 0:45:59.810 Yeah. 0:46:01.390 --> 0:46:02.910 What sport? Soccer. 0:46:04.180 --> 0:46:05.299 Not four goals, is it? 0:46:05.600 --> 0:46:05.920 No. 0:46:06.500 --> 0:46:08.540 It's not a goal, but it's when you do something 0:46:08.560 --> 0:46:09.140 with the ball. 0:46:09.480 --> 0:46:10.060 Scissor kick. 0:46:10.880 --> 0:46:11.040 No. 0:46:11.750 --> 0:46:15.550 That's a scissor kick. When you score on your own goal. No, 0:46:16.469 --> 0:46:19.720 that is literally an own goal. 0:46:19.840 --> 0:46:20.300 Own goal? 0:46:20.420 --> 0:46:21.900 Own goal is what they refer to. 0:46:22.160 --> 0:46:25.020 Nutmeg is when you kick the ball through your opponent's legs. 0:46:25.320 --> 0:46:25.980 Oh, really? 0:46:26.020 --> 0:46:28.340 Yeah, like he's defending you. You put the ball through it. 0:46:28.380 --> 0:46:30.080 You pass the ball through his legs. 0:46:30.320 --> 0:46:30.980 Cheeky, huh? 0:46:31.060 --> 0:46:32.120 Yeah. Yeah, I like that. 0:46:33.040 --> 0:46:37.040 Deb, what did you glean from the Antoine Griezmann video? 0:46:37.960 --> 0:46:41.380 I mean, he's still due for a super-duper win. I 0:46:41.420 --> 0:46:43.410 think he's still young and hungry enough to get it. 0:46:43.860 --> 0:46:47.350 And I think being embraced by Orlando City fans, I 0:46:47.390 --> 0:46:49.469 think this could be a breath of fresh air for 0:46:49.510 --> 0:46:51.930 his career. It was hard to feel that way watching 0:46:51.950 --> 0:46:54.370 the video without him feeling like, Did he take a 0:46:54.430 --> 0:46:57.930 step down coming to MLS because he played with Barcelona? 0:46:57.950 --> 0:47:00.290 Yeah, I'm watching this video, and every picture they show 0:47:00.310 --> 0:47:02.140 of this guy, it looks like his parents just died. 0:47:02.510 --> 0:47:04.820 It's like every time he was hanging his head in shame. 0:47:04.860 --> 0:47:06.100 I'm like, come on, dude, get out there. What are 0:47:06.120 --> 0:47:06.319 you doing? 0:47:06.340 --> 0:47:07.440 I think there was a couple of them where he 0:47:07.460 --> 0:47:08.960 was playing and looked like he was having fun. 0:47:09.760 --> 0:47:12.200 Yeah, Ross could have picked the video, a little more positive, 0:47:12.280 --> 0:47:17.220 uplifting video. However, he also did it on the fly 0:47:17.260 --> 0:47:18.780 during a commercial break. 0:47:18.880 --> 0:47:22.890 He knew he wanted this topic. And I've got to 0:47:22.930 --> 0:47:26.050 tell you, the guy who did this did a very 0:47:26.090 --> 0:47:26.610 good job. 0:47:26.710 --> 0:47:28.109 It was easy to watch and easy. 0:47:28.130 --> 0:47:31.110 I mean, it's only 14 minutes long, so if you're 0:47:31.210 --> 0:47:33.730 into soccer at the highest level and you want to 0:47:33.750 --> 0:47:37.870 learn about our newest... Addition to the team, Antoine Griezmann. Man, 0:47:37.950 --> 0:47:39.359 I can't get you over there fast enough. 0:47:41.400 --> 0:47:42.680 I really can't. I enjoyed it. 0:47:42.700 --> 0:47:44.920 I'm going to be honest with you. I liked it. 0:47:44.980 --> 0:47:47.030 I'm going to the games. I'm seeing him play. So 0:47:47.130 --> 0:47:50.250 it's nice having a little more history into the impact 0:47:50.450 --> 0:47:51.390 and how big he was. 0:47:51.410 --> 0:47:52.009 I mean, yeah. 0:47:53.050 --> 0:47:55.090 He's a World Cup winner as well with France. 0:47:55.280 --> 0:47:55.860 There's no question. 0:47:55.880 --> 0:47:57.380 This is a tough one for me, though. It'd be 0:47:57.420 --> 0:48:00.940 like me telling you, hey, watch this 14-minute video on 0:48:00.960 --> 0:48:02.600 this golfer you've never heard of. 0:48:03.060 --> 0:48:04.100 And their great swing. 0:48:04.140 --> 0:48:06.740 And their great swing and all the times they almost 0:48:06.780 --> 0:48:09.719 won a major. Yeah. It's that kind of vibe. But, yeah, 0:48:09.739 --> 0:48:11.270 it was a good video, and he did a good 0:48:11.290 --> 0:48:12.730 job at it. And I learned a little bit about 0:48:12.830 --> 0:48:14.490 Antoine Griezmann and how he's cursed. 0:48:15.230 --> 0:48:18.230 He's not. Curse. Jackie's curse. They say it right there 0:48:18.270 --> 0:48:19.370 on the video. I think it's. 0:48:19.430 --> 0:48:20.130 In the, isn't it? 0:48:20.469 --> 0:48:21.770 It's in the title of the video. 0:48:21.790 --> 0:48:22.230 It's not cursed. 0:48:22.530 --> 0:48:25.650 I know, but it's gorgeous curse. The video is called 0:48:25.690 --> 0:48:29.630 Griezmann's Curse, and even more so, the word curse is capitalized. 0:48:30.910 --> 0:48:33.969 Like, they really think he's cursed. He's not lowercase curse, Jack. 0:48:34.070 --> 0:48:35.989 It's this guy, and that guy, and the host, he 0:48:36.070 --> 0:48:36.830 even said he's. 0:48:36.730 --> 0:48:37.370 Rooting for him. 0:48:37.870 --> 0:48:40.129 Well, who cares? The guy in front of the fake 0:48:40.150 --> 0:48:41.640 palm tree gives a damn? Yeah. 0:48:41.719 --> 0:48:42.339 All right, very good. 0:48:43.090 --> 0:48:44.790 I need a fake palm tree in my world. We 0:48:44.810 --> 0:48:47.029 need that backlight. That backlighting is like the whole thing. 0:48:47.130 --> 0:48:48.590 I mean, the monsters do it in here sometimes with 0:48:48.610 --> 0:48:51.510 that red light. I don't get that. Is that proven 0:48:51.530 --> 0:48:54.450 to get more people watching or something? It's aesthetics. 0:48:54.770 --> 0:48:55.330 Is that what it is? 0:48:56.070 --> 0:48:58.840 Do you know what it means to make things look nice? 0:48:58.880 --> 0:48:59.339 Yeah, yeah. 0:48:59.480 --> 0:49:02.500 Aesthetics. I just said it. Okay. 0:49:02.520 --> 0:49:03.700 I don't know what that sound was. 0:49:05.880 --> 0:49:08.279 Do we need green lights in here for aesthetics behind this? 0:49:08.360 --> 0:49:10.239 I don't think green would work in there with the 0:49:10.300 --> 0:49:12.439 red walls. I think that's why the red light kind 0:49:12.500 --> 0:49:15.710 of gives a little glow there. What color does green 0:49:15.730 --> 0:49:17.230 and red make when you mix it together? 0:49:17.430 --> 0:49:17.830 Christmas. 0:49:17.910 --> 0:49:18.970 It makes Christmas sound. 0:49:20.120 --> 0:49:21.120 All right. 0:49:22.160 --> 0:49:24.160 What do the listeners have for us for next week, buddy? 0:49:24.200 --> 0:49:28.140 Who was the lucky choice? Cheryl sent us a video. 0:49:28.200 --> 0:49:30.150 This agrees with me. There you go. 0:49:30.830 --> 0:49:34.570 However, this could be longer, but what I'm going to 0:49:34.610 --> 0:49:37.149 do is kind of give you a combination of some 0:49:37.270 --> 0:49:41.770 short videos. Have you heard the name Kareem Rama? Have 0:49:41.810 --> 0:49:47.180 not heard of Kareem Rama. Has an Emmy-nominated series called 0:49:47.460 --> 0:49:48.500 Subway Takes? 0:49:49.140 --> 0:49:51.380 Yeah, I don't know anything about it, yeah. Gab, are 0:49:51.420 --> 0:49:52.120 you familiar? 0:49:52.180 --> 0:49:53.440 I've heard a little bit about it, yeah. 0:49:54.239 --> 0:49:59.390 Oh, I have heard this. The guy goes on the subway, 0:49:59.530 --> 0:50:02.169 sits next to people and asks them questions. 0:50:02.350 --> 0:50:02.890 And take. 0:50:03.050 --> 0:50:05.069 They have what their takes are, right? 0:50:05.170 --> 0:50:05.490 Exactly. 0:50:05.610 --> 0:50:05.810 Okay. 0:50:06.170 --> 0:50:09.030 So he does that with strangers, right? 0:50:09.050 --> 0:50:09.730 Yes, he does. 0:50:10.330 --> 0:50:14.910 Now it's where he does celebrity interviews. I watched one 0:50:14.950 --> 0:50:19.459 with Colin Jost. I watched one with Charlize Theron where 0:50:19.520 --> 0:50:22.259 they come with like five hot takes and they have 0:50:22.280 --> 0:50:26.009 to get hotter. And then it's like– and they just 0:50:26.070 --> 0:50:28.670 do the interview on a subway and anything. 0:50:28.390 --> 0:50:29.870 That happens, happens. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:50:30.130 --> 0:50:34.379 So that's– and then he now has one called Leave 0:50:34.420 --> 0:50:36.760 the Meter Running. It's a YouTube series. 0:50:36.900 --> 0:50:39.839 Okay. And it's almost like taxicab conventions. He gets into 0:50:39.880 --> 0:50:40.340 a cab. 0:50:40.820 --> 0:50:44.779 Like he'll interview the cab driver and then– where that 0:50:44.840 --> 0:50:46.160 go it could go. 0:50:46.070 --> 0:50:48.410 Anywhere yeah yeah you know i remember seeing this on 0:50:48.450 --> 0:50:51.150 youtube for the very first time the the subway interviews 0:50:51.230 --> 0:50:53.370 and they were actually very interesting they are yeah but 0:50:53.430 --> 0:50:55.870 you wouldn't think that you could turn like a regular 0:50:55.950 --> 0:50:58.390 joe riding back and forth to work into somebody interesting 0:50:58.410 --> 0:51:01.550 but like everyday people have very interesting takes on life. 0:51:01.690 --> 0:51:04.030 So i'm trying to find the right combination of small 0:51:04.070 --> 0:51:06.810 videos it'll probably be about three of them that i'll 0:51:06.850 --> 0:51:10.089 post there but it's kareem rama yeah and it's uh 0:51:10.469 --> 0:51:14.180 yeah and cheryl wright's He reminds her of a modern-day 0:51:14.280 --> 0:51:15.219 Anthony Bourdain. 0:51:15.420 --> 0:51:16.000 Yeah, yeah. 0:51:16.040 --> 0:51:19.210 But Subway takes, nominated for an Emmy. But the one 0:51:19.250 --> 0:51:22.030 she really loves is his YouTube series, Keep the Meter Running. 0:51:22.330 --> 0:51:26.489 And that's like a 30, 40-minute thing where he'll– like 0:51:26.630 --> 0:51:28.610 he spent one night going around with a guy in 0:51:28.650 --> 0:51:33.000 a cab. They stopped to get food. Yeah, yeah. But 0:51:33.060 --> 0:51:35.660 then they have– you know, they'll pick up fares. So 0:51:35.680 --> 0:51:37.839 keep the meter running. Oh, he picks up fares while 0:51:37.860 --> 0:51:39.219 he's doing it. I figured he would just pay the 0:51:39.280 --> 0:51:41.430 meter the whole time he's doing it. He was, but 0:51:41.739 --> 0:51:43.690 the one I started watching, he's like, Hey, can I 0:51:43.730 --> 0:51:46.190 just drive with you tonight? And so he got in 0:51:46.210 --> 0:51:48.270 the front seat, went with the cabbie, and then they 0:51:48.290 --> 0:51:50.880 just picked up rides. And those, they all end up 0:51:50.910 --> 0:51:53.319 being part of the show. which is almost like taxicab 0:51:53.340 --> 0:51:55.960 confessions on HBO. That's kind of cool, yeah. And the 0:51:56.000 --> 0:51:58.440 guy's interesting. He's really, if I remember right, pretty smart, 0:51:58.540 --> 0:51:59.380 pretty quick, too. 0:51:59.540 --> 0:52:01.680 He is. And not disrespectful, if I remember. He's not 0:52:01.700 --> 0:52:02.919 trying to gotcha anybody, right? 0:52:02.940 --> 0:52:04.989 No. Just looking for takes. That's it. 0:52:05.130 --> 0:52:06.850 Yeah, but I was surprised when I looked at the 0:52:06.890 --> 0:52:10.330 list of celebrities. I mean, Jennifer Lopez and the others 0:52:10.430 --> 0:52:15.830 I mentioned and just– A-list celebrities that he's done Subway 0:52:15.890 --> 0:52:16.489 interviews with. 0:52:16.590 --> 0:52:18.549 Mostly New York. Well, I mean, with Subway, it's always 0:52:18.570 --> 0:52:21.880 New York-based, but even the cat thing, New York-based as well? Yes. 0:52:22.280 --> 0:52:25.259 There's one when he went overseas, I think, to Damascus, 0:52:25.620 --> 0:52:28.319 and that actually is considered one of the most popular ones. 0:52:28.360 --> 0:52:28.680 Interesting. 0:52:28.719 --> 0:52:31.049 There's got to be a compilation video on YouTube of 0:52:31.070 --> 0:52:33.270 this guy with a … With a shorter version, a 0:52:33.310 --> 0:52:34.710 truncated version of what he's doing there. 0:52:34.730 --> 0:52:36.029 Yeah, I'll find the right one for you. 0:52:36.050 --> 0:52:38.430 But I got caught in that wormhole today, and then 0:52:38.469 --> 0:52:40.049 I just kept watching one after the other. 0:52:40.070 --> 0:52:40.509 It's pretty good. 0:52:40.590 --> 0:52:42.850 Yeah, speaking of wormholes, I'll just drop this real quick. 0:52:42.870 --> 0:52:44.450 I mean, we can talk about it later if we want, 0:52:44.469 --> 0:52:47.910 I guess. But YouTubing, wormholing the other day, which is 0:52:48.070 --> 0:52:49.489 turning out to be one of my favorite things to 0:52:49.530 --> 0:52:52.050 do as a pastime, is just kind of scroll through 0:52:52.090 --> 0:52:54.899 and find something interesting. I ran upon a channel called 0:52:54.920 --> 0:52:59.620 The American Hobo. And it's basically this guy is a hobo. 0:52:59.640 --> 0:53:03.779 He just chronicles himself traveling across the U.S. via any 0:53:04.000 --> 0:53:07.490 free way he can. And the clip I saw was 0:53:07.590 --> 0:53:10.000 you couldn't even tell what it was. It was just 0:53:10.120 --> 0:53:13.520 him surrounded by some stuff. And he goes, I think 0:53:13.560 --> 0:53:16.469 we're almost in Cincinnati. Can't really tell because. 0:53:16.219 --> 0:53:17.250 Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. 0:53:17.750 --> 0:53:20.930 And what he's doing is he's hidden himself under a 0:53:21.030 --> 0:53:24.759 train car. Oh, wow. And like this little basket area. 0:53:25.030 --> 0:53:28.739 And he's been riding there for hours. doesn't know where 0:53:28.780 --> 0:53:30.759 he's going, doesn't know where it's going to drop off. 0:53:30.800 --> 0:53:32.900 He does have an idea, I think, of where it's 0:53:32.920 --> 0:53:35.720 going to end. And he talks about it all. He goes, yeah, 0:53:35.760 --> 0:53:37.310 last time I did this, I had to get off 0:53:37.350 --> 0:53:39.150 here and walk two miles to this and do this 0:53:39.230 --> 0:53:41.009 and the other. Then I just come back and he goes, 0:53:41.030 --> 0:53:42.509 you don't want to be seen. I'm not trying to 0:53:42.550 --> 0:53:45.609 disrespect anybody. Like his whole thing is getting caught, not 0:53:45.650 --> 0:53:48.640 because of it being illegal. He doesn't want to disrespect 0:53:48.660 --> 0:53:51.770 the train rider by like taking something free. But I 0:53:51.850 --> 0:53:53.330 just started watching him, and I'm going to watch him 0:53:53.350 --> 0:53:54.460 a little bit more and see how good it is. 0:53:54.530 --> 0:53:55.399 All right. 0:53:55.420 --> 0:53:57.700 I've had a little bit of romance about that, about 0:53:57.719 --> 0:53:58.620 the hobo idea. 0:53:58.700 --> 0:53:59.060 Oh, yeah? 0:53:59.100 --> 0:54:01.060 And a little bit of a romance in that idea 0:54:01.080 --> 0:54:03.040 of just going, you know what?

I was like, 0:58:38.430 --> 0:58:39.890 show me. And then I saw the photo, and I 0:58:39.910 --> 0:58:41.190 was like, Target. 0:58:41.250 --> 0:58:43.290 Go to JimCobraLive.com.

No, I'm not doing jokes. 0:59:00.390 --> 0:59:02.690 I'm looking for your little Target thing that you just 0:59:02.730 --> 0:59:05.630 threw to me. It says the costume sold as, quote, 0:59:05.750 --> 0:59:11.240 kids glow under blacklight circus clown Halloween costumes. Promotes a 0:59:11.320 --> 0:59:13.430 social media backlash. And I thought to myself this morning 0:59:13.450 --> 0:59:15.160 when I read this headline, I'm like, how bad could 0:59:15.200 --> 0:59:19.280 it be? And then I– because they don't show it. 0:59:19.360 --> 0:59:21.040 They don't show it. They don't show it in the 0:59:21.060 --> 0:59:23.479 context of the story. You gots to go and look 0:59:23.520 --> 0:59:25.000 for it. You got to go find this. 0:59:25.020 --> 0:59:27.060 You got to go find this bad boy.

I was like– It's 0:59:34.330 --> 0:59:36.510 just like with the Good Good Golf thing. How do 0:59:36.550 --> 0:59:39.280 you make an ad where a guy shoves a woman 0:59:39.340 --> 0:59:43.040 to the ground, then lords over her saying, don't you 0:59:43.080 --> 0:59:45.520 touch my golf club, as if you're Clint Eastwood. 0:59:46.120 --> 0:59:49.180 And that gets cleared. Callaway's part of it. Good Good's 0:59:49.220 --> 0:59:51.010 one of the biggest golf companies out there right now. 0:59:51.040 --> 0:59:52.990 And that story still has legs. 0:59:53.370 --> 0:59:55.730 And then you think, how do you do that? And 0:59:55.770 --> 0:59:58.130 they're just a, look, they're a pretty good company. They're 0:59:58.230 --> 1:00:01.790 nothing like Target. I mean, Target is a gigantic company. 1:00:02.730 --> 1:00:05.940 How does this make it out? Like even the idea. Yeah, 1:00:06.060 --> 1:00:07.400 you got to blow one of those up and look 1:00:07.460 --> 1:00:07.760 at it. 1:00:07.880 --> 1:00:10.100 And the social media part that like a lot of 1:00:10.120 --> 1:00:12.720 people are like, so you get rid of everyone in 1:00:12.760 --> 1:00:16.350 DEI in Minneapolis. So there was no one that went 1:00:16.370 --> 1:00:20.090 through the chain of command that went, hey, you might 1:00:20.130 --> 1:00:21.160 want to rethink this. 1:00:21.450 --> 1:00:22.360 It's even worse. 1:00:22.380 --> 1:00:24.780 I'll tell you what.

I will give you one guess. 1:01:45.500 --> 1:01:48.360 Please don't look at the texting service. What part of 1:01:48.400 --> 1:01:51.380 that glows? What could make that as bad as it 1:01:51.400 --> 1:01:52.140 could possibly be? 1:01:52.280 --> 1:01:53.500 Oh, the only thing. The teeth. 1:01:53.660 --> 1:01:54.380 The smile. 1:01:55.260 --> 1:01:57.620 It's the teeth. The only thing that glows is the teeth. 1:01:57.640 --> 1:02:00.200 Oh, my God. Look at the screen now, Jimmy. Look 1:02:00.300 --> 1:02:00.740 at that. 1:02:00.760 --> 1:02:00.820 Oh. 1:02:03.840 --> 1:02:06.530 I guess I'm wasting money working here because I could 1:02:06.550 --> 1:02:09.010 be the CEO of Target and walk into the room. 1:02:09.030 --> 1:02:09.669 They're going, hey, Mr. 1:02:09.690 --> 1:02:12.270 Colbert, we got something for you. I would fire everybody 1:02:12.290 --> 1:02:14.050 in the room for even bringing me in to look 1:02:14.130 --> 1:02:16.670 at it. How do you not know how that's going 1:02:16.690 --> 1:02:17.050 to hit? 1:02:17.710 --> 1:02:21.190 How do you not know that? God almighty. 1:02:22.990 --> 1:02:27.290 Anyway, stultifying. How do you not know that's not going 1:02:27.310 --> 1:02:29.130 to hit like that? How do you look at that costume? Well, 1:02:29.170 --> 1:02:29.650 that's cool. 1:02:29.670 --> 1:02:34.630 Let's roll that out. Let's start selling those in Birmingham immediately. 1:02:36.530 --> 1:02:39.130 And they have a young black child that's that's modeling. 1:02:39.190 --> 1:02:42.450 Oh, my God almighty. It's pulled the costume that was 1:02:42.470 --> 1:02:46.240 sold as part of its seasonal hide and eek boutique brand. 1:02:48.030 --> 1:02:50.790 It was the latest in a series of reputational blows 1:02:50.810 --> 1:02:55.430 that Target has had to undercut sales. These guys cannot. 1:02:55.770 --> 1:02:58.730 This is like a bull in a china shop scenario. 1:02:59.230 --> 1:03:02.910 This is like me anywhere where things can break. I 1:03:03.030 --> 1:03:05.430 literally stick my hands in my pockets and walk around 1:03:05.470 --> 1:03:09.010 like I'm a scolded child that's been beaten my entire life. 1:03:10.300 --> 1:03:13.740 I knock things over on accident all the time. This 1:03:13.800 --> 1:03:18.130 is exactly that. Policy U-turn was widely viewed as a 1:03:18.150 --> 1:03:20.820 betrayal by black Americans who had embraced the retail giant 1:03:20.900 --> 1:03:22.280 and fueled its fortunes. 1:03:25.320 --> 1:03:28.520 Again, it's just for it to have made it this far, 1:03:29.300 --> 1:03:32.620 it had to go through multiple different departments for approval. 1:03:32.640 --> 1:03:35.770 I mean, someone had to look at the catalog and said, 1:03:35.790 --> 1:03:37.170 that looks great. 1:03:44.030 --> 1:03:45.170 Do I think Target's racist? 1:03:45.410 --> 1:03:45.640 No. 1:03:45.930 --> 1:03:46.160 No. 1:03:46.400 --> 1:03:47.960 I don't think they're– they're dumb. 1:03:48.060 --> 1:03:48.660 It's clueless. 1:03:48.720 --> 1:03:52.160 Yeah, they're just clueless. Which is almost worse. 1:03:52.410 --> 1:03:55.990 Do I think Target's got jokes? Do I think they 1:03:56.010 --> 1:03:57.730 put this out because they think they're getting over? 1:03:57.810 --> 1:03:58.050 No. 1:03:58.110 --> 1:03:59.070 I just think they're dumb. 1:03:59.700 --> 1:04:03.360 Like whoever works in that C-suite needs to go live 1:04:03.480 --> 1:04:05.460 in the suburbs for like two years or something and 1:04:05.480 --> 1:04:07.680 figure out what real people like and what they think. 1:04:08.030 --> 1:04:10.130 Because the people up there in the C-suites in Target 1:04:10.330 --> 1:04:13.550 have no clue, dude. So if the model is a 1:04:13.710 --> 1:04:16.100 white kid, it hits differently, doesn't it? 1:04:16.100 --> 1:04:16.160 No. 1:04:16.740 --> 1:04:16.939 No. 1:04:17.750 --> 1:04:19.790 It doesn't? No, I don't think so, no, because I 1:04:19.810 --> 1:04:22.890 think that's a mesh. That's mesh over the smile, right? 1:04:22.970 --> 1:04:25.230 So I think the mesh is black, so whomever's in 1:04:25.250 --> 1:04:27.300 the thing, it will be lighter for sure, I. 1:04:27.280 --> 1:04:27.820 Believe, Jack. 1:04:28.090 --> 1:04:28.760 The face. 1:04:28.950 --> 1:04:31.520 That's his face, though. No, isn't there a black mesh 1:04:31.620 --> 1:04:34.120 over it? Isn't that a black mesh, like, hood? 1:04:34.280 --> 1:04:34.560 Yeah. 1:04:34.720 --> 1:04:36.140 Yeah, because, I mean, they have to have something to 1:04:36.200 --> 1:04:38.919 hold the smile. Yeah, that goes around him, but that's 1:04:38.980 --> 1:04:41.500 his face. From his nose to his eyes, that's his face. 1:04:41.620 --> 1:04:42.100 Understood. 1:04:42.180 --> 1:04:44.780 But what I'm saying is, even though that's his face, 1:04:45.280 --> 1:04:46.540 you're saying that's cut out there? 1:04:46.740 --> 1:04:47.160 That is. 1:04:47.220 --> 1:04:47.640 Is it? 1:04:47.660 --> 1:04:49.780 So if it's a white kid, then it's just a 1:04:49.800 --> 1:04:52.420 white kid with a big smile and doesn't lean towards 1:04:52.460 --> 1:04:53.820 the comparison to blackface. 1:04:53.860 --> 1:04:54.060 Yeah. 1:04:54.140 --> 1:04:55.400 When I looked at it today, it looked like it 1:04:55.440 --> 1:04:56.200 was black mesh. 1:04:56.220 --> 1:05:00.180 Like a mesh with a smile. Yeah. It's like a... Yeah, 1:05:00.200 --> 1:05:02.320 because then that's what the hat attaches to. 1:05:02.360 --> 1:05:04.220 Large enough to zoom in without... Oh, I bet they've 1:05:04.240 --> 1:05:05.700 scrubbed the internet for every one of those. I can't 1:05:05.720 --> 1:05:06.390 believe you found those. 1:05:07.520 --> 1:05:08.959 They're very disappointed in you, Jack. 1:05:12.420 --> 1:05:12.920 Oh, God. 1:05:15.800 --> 1:05:15.990 Yeah, man. 1:05:16.000 --> 1:05:17.660 I think they're singing the C-suite today. 1:05:17.680 --> 1:05:18.720 Oh, wait. 1:05:18.740 --> 1:05:19.230 There he goes. 1:05:19.270 --> 1:05:20.209 He's got a much bigger. 1:05:20.550 --> 1:05:20.850 Yeah. 1:05:20.870 --> 1:05:22.750 See, Jack, I think it has a I think it's 1:05:22.930 --> 1:05:25.270 a I think it's a mesh. It's a mesh like 1:05:25.310 --> 1:05:26.850 it like if you're going to rob a store and 1:05:26.870 --> 1:05:28.890 you're going to put a pantyhose over it because that's 1:05:28.910 --> 1:05:30.890 what the smile is attached to. I don't think there's 1:05:30.930 --> 1:05:33.140 a balaclava. That's his face. 1:05:33.680 --> 1:05:34.220 No, that's mesh. 1:05:34.240 --> 1:05:35.700 I'm not saying it's not his face, buddy. What I'm 1:05:35.720 --> 1:05:37.860 saying is I think that's mesh. I think that the 1:05:37.920 --> 1:05:41.520 smile is sewn onto a mesh cover and you just 1:05:41.560 --> 1:05:42.439 pull that over your head. 1:05:42.580 --> 1:05:42.840 Right. 1:05:42.980 --> 1:05:45.380 So the collar, then the head part, and then the 1:05:45.420 --> 1:05:47.270 hat is attached to the mesh at the top. 1:05:47.790 --> 1:05:48.330 I think. 1:05:48.370 --> 1:05:50.690 I'm not 100 on that because I don't think the smile– 1:05:50.830 --> 1:05:52.790 I think that's what holds the smile in place. 1:05:53.010 --> 1:05:53.510 And the hat. 1:05:53.710 --> 1:05:54.050 Yeah, yeah. 1:05:57.410 --> 1:05:58.189 Let's go pick one. 1:05:58.370 --> 1:06:03.750 I love this. It says– Target has little room for error, 1:06:04.170 --> 1:06:08.790 says Brett Husslin. He's an analyst at Morningstar. 1:06:09.390 --> 1:06:10.210 He's going to be hustling. 1:06:10.250 --> 1:06:13.460 He goes, quote, as Target begins to gain traction repairing 1:06:13.520 --> 1:06:16.060 its brand reputation, this is exactly the stuff they want 1:06:16.080 --> 1:06:16.580 to avoid. 1:06:18.700 --> 1:06:20.520 Thanks, Brett. Yeah. 1:06:22.700 --> 1:06:26.880 We appreciate your input. We kind of figure that out 1:06:26.920 --> 1:06:30.800 now because of the national outrage thing. Mistakes are bad, okay? 1:06:30.960 --> 1:06:33.120 Mistakes are bad, okay? 1:06:35.020 --> 1:06:38.100 As we know, this is especially hurtful for our black guests, 1:06:38.280 --> 1:06:41.950 team members, and partners. Yeah, could you imagine stocking that 1:06:42.350 --> 1:06:46.410 as an African-American employee as they're putting that on target? 1:06:46.450 --> 1:06:48.410 They're like, what the hell. 1:06:48.290 --> 1:06:49.050 Is going on here? 1:06:49.190 --> 1:06:50.640 Who thought this was a good idea? 1:06:50.740 --> 1:06:51.010 All right. 1:06:51.460 --> 1:06:53.960 It says removing the costume is an important first step, 1:06:54.000 --> 1:06:56.140 and the company is looking closely how this happened and 1:06:56.180 --> 1:06:57.960 what needs to change to ensure this won't happen. 1:06:57.980 --> 1:06:58.410 I got it. 1:06:58.760 --> 1:07:01.000 It's blow everybody out in that department. 1:07:01.460 --> 1:07:02.400 And that includes Brett. 1:07:02.420 --> 1:07:05.180 And bring in new people who don't get that. I mean, 1:07:05.570 --> 1:07:09.960 I don't get it, man. Man, what a mistake. What 1:07:09.980 --> 1:07:11.160 a mistake. And you're right. 1:07:11.200 --> 1:07:11.540 It's funny. 1:07:11.740 --> 1:07:14.180 If this was the first thing like the targeted tripped on, 1:07:14.220 --> 1:07:15.530 I think people would go, well, you know, I mean, 1:07:15.550 --> 1:07:17.530 I guess anybody can make a mistake. But this is 1:07:17.570 --> 1:07:19.750 like the third or fourth thing that these guys are 1:07:19.770 --> 1:07:21.210 getting caught up in and not. I mean, we're not 1:07:21.250 --> 1:07:23.030 like third or fourth thing like in the last like 1:07:23.130 --> 1:07:23.830 five years. 1:07:25.350 --> 1:07:28.230 It almost makes you wonder, like, don't they see the 1:07:28.290 --> 1:07:32.210 need to say, OK, bring in someone from this department, 1:07:32.230 --> 1:07:34.830 that department, this department, everyone sit in the room. What 1:07:34.870 --> 1:07:37.140 do you see when we show you this costume? And 1:07:37.160 --> 1:07:39.640 get the opinions of the people behind closed doors. 1:07:39.780 --> 1:07:41.420 That's exactly what– go ahead. 1:07:41.600 --> 1:07:42.700 No, I was going to say for it to get 1:07:42.740 --> 1:07:46.780 through design to production to having a model to making 1:07:46.820 --> 1:07:49.760 into a catalog to being part of the store circular, 1:07:49.860 --> 1:07:51.720 it went through a lot of leadership who said, yeah, 1:07:52.180 --> 1:07:52.640 I like it. 1:07:52.680 --> 1:07:55.470 Yeah, we had Ken the Driver, our guy who's a 1:07:55.510 --> 1:07:57.190 big fan of the show, super nice guy. He says 1:07:57.230 --> 1:07:59.930 Target costume probably slipped through the cracks because the people 1:07:59.950 --> 1:08:01.890 who have to approve or disapprove these costumes are probably 1:08:01.910 --> 1:08:04.310 in their 20s or 30s. And not from that time period. 1:08:04.710 --> 1:08:06.430 I mean, I look, I got to tell you, that's 1:08:06.510 --> 1:08:08.610 the best excuse I've heard so far. And if I 1:08:08.630 --> 1:08:11.630 was a target executive, I'd probably roll with that. Hey, look, sorry, 1:08:11.650 --> 1:08:13.880 the guys who approve this 20, 30 years old, they 1:08:13.890 --> 1:08:18.260 don't really see the minstrel comparisons here. Giant mistake. Throw 1:08:18.360 --> 1:08:19.700 everybody under the bus. Move forward. 1:08:19.780 --> 1:08:23.380 Do you remember when Abercrombie and Fitch several years ago, 1:08:23.700 --> 1:08:26.620 one of their young employees for the 4th of July 1:08:27.140 --> 1:08:30.620 had tweeted out a photo of and the Rockets red glare? 1:08:31.490 --> 1:08:34.590 Not realizing that what they had posted was a shot 1:08:34.689 --> 1:08:35.900 of the Space Shuttle Columbia. 1:08:36.100 --> 1:08:36.640 Oh, no. 1:08:37.260 --> 1:08:37.960 Or Challenger. 1:08:38.060 --> 1:08:38.540 Challenger. 1:08:38.720 --> 1:08:41.200 They had no idea because they weren't alive when the 1:08:41.220 --> 1:08:44.340 Challenger exploded. So they thought it was rockets red glare. 1:08:44.479 --> 1:08:45.120 Right, right, right. 1:08:45.220 --> 1:08:47.900 Not realizing because, again, they weren't from that era and 1:08:47.920 --> 1:08:49.780 they just didn't source where their photos came from. 1:08:49.800 --> 1:08:50.389 Let me ask you, Jack. 1:08:50.400 --> 1:08:52.150 Do you have the chat GPT, like the one that 1:08:52.189 --> 1:08:53.710 you use for everything? Do you have that on a 1:08:53.729 --> 1:08:54.309 computer in there? 1:08:54.890 --> 1:08:56.210 Yeah, it's a website. 1:08:56.310 --> 1:08:58.190 I wonder if you dropped that image in the chat 1:08:58.229 --> 1:08:59.970 GPT and asked if that was race. 1:09:00.180 --> 1:09:00.780 What it would say. 1:09:01.439 --> 1:09:03.940 Like, do you think this is, is this a racist 1:09:04.000 --> 1:09:07.960 or racially motivated image that you see here? 1:09:08.060 --> 1:09:10.519 And see what it says. All right. 1:09:10.660 --> 1:09:11.370 Let me work on it. 1:09:11.380 --> 1:09:11.700 All right. 1:09:12.140 --> 1:09:13.270 I mean, I'm not, you know, you can do whatever 1:09:13.590 --> 1:09:13.820 you want. 1:09:13.860 --> 1:09:16.769 What are you saying? No, I can do it. It's 1:09:16.810 --> 1:09:18.830 not going to happen now. I got to save the photo. 1:09:18.870 --> 1:09:19.590 I got to upload it. 1:09:21.840 --> 1:09:24.559 It says, and marketing had to post it. So, I mean, 1:09:24.600 --> 1:09:25.920 this thing had to go through a number of hands. 1:09:26.060 --> 1:09:26.640 Production. 1:09:26.800 --> 1:09:29.500 Yeah, that's what I'm saying. The concept of the thing 1:09:29.520 --> 1:09:30.679 from the very onset. 1:09:30.780 --> 1:09:34.090 Photographing the ad, getting the child model. 1:09:34.110 --> 1:09:35.969 I mean, everything. 1:09:36.030 --> 1:09:39.110 It had to go through a lot of approval before 1:09:39.150 --> 1:09:43.010 it actually made it to market. So, you'd like to 1:09:43.050 --> 1:09:45.769 think someone could have said, hey, did. 1:09:45.640 --> 1:09:46.050 You take. 1:09:53.250 --> 1:09:54.290 Well, I wish them the very best. 1:09:55.170 --> 1:09:57.250 That's what you say to something as they're starting a 1:09:57.270 --> 1:09:57.970 new job. 1:09:58.830 --> 1:10:00.210 Sorry, Brett. 1:10:00.250 --> 1:10:01.490 Not looking good for you, dude. 1:10:01.950 --> 1:10:02.970 We wish them the very best. 1:10:03.010 --> 1:10:05.809 Yeah, we do. They're going to need it. 1:10:05.920 --> 1:10:06.920 You are now the target. 1:10:06.939 --> 1:10:09.780 So you've won. All right. 1:10:09.800 --> 1:10:09.860 407-916-1041. 1:10:09.860 --> 1:10:10.800 You can always text us at 77031. Back in one 1:10:10.820 --> 1:10:12.580 sec with more of the Jim Colbert Show. Stay right there. 1:10:20.620 --> 1:10:22.870 Talking about soda, growing up in New Jersey in the 1:10:22.910 --> 1:10:25.250 early 90s, I used to go visit my grandmother in 1:10:25.290 --> 1:10:27.590 the eastern side of Pennsylvania, like right across the river. 1:10:28.050 --> 1:10:29.410 And I remember she used to always take me to 1:10:29.430 --> 1:10:33.030 the A-Treat soda bottling facilities, like the little local ones. 1:10:33.350 --> 1:10:35.290 And it was super cool because they had these little 1:10:35.330 --> 1:10:38.850 plastic six-pack holders, and you could mix your own six-pack 1:10:38.890 --> 1:10:40.850 of soda. And they had this whole wall of all 1:10:40.890 --> 1:10:43.990 these different flavors of half-liter bottles. And if you brought 1:10:44.030 --> 1:10:46.140 back your empties, you got a credit. So that was 1:10:46.180 --> 1:10:47.320 a cool thing we used to always do when I 1:10:47.360 --> 1:10:49.800 hung out for the weekend was go mix up soda packs. 1:10:49.960 --> 1:10:53.540 That sounds good. As a kid? 1:10:53.660 --> 1:10:56.780 Yeah, that would be something. Oh, hell yeah. Let's go. 1:10:57.020 --> 1:10:59.260 If you threw me a bottle of Pepsi right now, 1:10:59.400 --> 1:11:01.040 I would chew through the side of it. 1:11:02.080 --> 1:11:03.780 Don't look at me. I'm not. 1:11:04.020 --> 1:11:06.350 That urge is not going away, huh? It is not, dude. 1:11:08.729 --> 1:11:09.729 You need to fix your life. 1:11:13.050 --> 1:11:14.690 I had a dentist appointment today, by the way. Have 1:11:14.729 --> 1:11:16.670 you guys been to the dentist in a while? My 1:11:16.710 --> 1:11:18.050 wife went today. 1:11:18.090 --> 1:11:19.130 Welcome back. I'm Jim. There's Deb. 1:11:19.150 --> 1:11:20.670 Hello. Jack is here as well. I don't know if 1:11:20.689 --> 1:11:22.410 you guys know this. They're giving that away these days. 1:11:24.030 --> 1:11:26.990 They are not. Dentistry is free in America. I learned 1:11:27.010 --> 1:11:30.950 that today. Well, you get your teeth cleaning. That's included 1:11:31.030 --> 1:11:31.809 in your health care, right? 1:11:31.830 --> 1:11:32.250 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1:11:32.270 --> 1:11:34.030 My whole thing today was absolutely free. I walked right 1:11:34.050 --> 1:11:35.090 out of there without paying a dime. 1:11:35.110 --> 1:11:35.570 There you go. 1:11:35.630 --> 1:11:38.290 Our dental insurance, though, does not have a whole ton 1:11:38.330 --> 1:11:39.950 of money behind it. I have some work I need 1:11:39.970 --> 1:11:42.010 to get done. These two fakies up front, I'm about 1:11:42.030 --> 1:11:44.040 to get these fixed. That's where I got some, I 1:11:44.060 --> 1:11:45.600 got some crowding here at the bottom. We're going to 1:11:45.620 --> 1:11:46.740 fix that as well. So I kind of went in 1:11:46.780 --> 1:11:49.150 today and got a, a little overview of some things 1:11:49.210 --> 1:11:50.570 I want to do. I've been waiting on it for 1:11:50.610 --> 1:11:52.530 a while. My wife has been really busting my balls 1:11:52.570 --> 1:11:54.390 for a while to get it done. So I went 1:11:54.430 --> 1:11:56.150 in today to get a, you know, get it's a 1:11:56.210 --> 1:11:57.970 new dentist because I've been going to winter park, but 1:11:57.990 --> 1:11:59.850 of course I'm not driving 50 minutes to go to 1:11:59.890 --> 1:12:02.070 the dentist. So we picked a place out there that 1:12:02.150 --> 1:12:04.060 literally is around the corner from the house. She went 1:12:04.120 --> 1:12:06.420 there the other day and loved it. It was really good. 1:12:06.439 --> 1:12:09.840 I went there today and it was amazing. Um, and 1:12:09.900 --> 1:12:12.480 the doctor's very thorough and everything like that. But man, 1:12:13.430 --> 1:12:13.969 I got some. 1:12:13.910 --> 1:12:14.530 Issues, dude. 1:12:14.810 --> 1:12:15.190 Yeah. 1:12:15.470 --> 1:12:15.850 Yeah. 1:12:17.510 --> 1:12:19.330 I mean, nothing crazy. It's just that. 1:12:19.590 --> 1:12:21.519 Would you rather drive the 40 minutes and go to 1:12:21.560 --> 1:12:23.720 the dentist that's willing to overlook those issues? 1:12:24.760 --> 1:12:25.519 I don't think he's. 1:12:26.000 --> 1:12:28.400 I just look. He always asks. I just like, no, 1:12:28.420 --> 1:12:29.660 I'm not ready for that now. I'm not ready for 1:12:29.680 --> 1:12:31.360 that now. You can say that to the new guy 1:12:31.420 --> 1:12:31.740 as well. 1:12:31.880 --> 1:12:32.980 And by the way, you know, they don't do the 1:12:33.260 --> 1:12:36.650 they don't do the goop in your mouth anymore. They 1:12:36.670 --> 1:12:39.950 don't do that anymore. The fluoride? No, no, no, not 1:12:39.970 --> 1:12:42.010 the fluoride. We know Florida hates that. 1:12:42.030 --> 1:12:45.349 Well, that's why you can't get it at the dentist 1:12:45.370 --> 1:12:46.790 since it's no longer in your water. 1:12:47.030 --> 1:12:51.010 Exactly right. When they put that goop in your mouth 1:12:51.030 --> 1:12:53.110 to get an impression of your teeth, kind of get 1:12:53.150 --> 1:12:55.610 an idea of what they're like, they don't do that anymore. 1:12:55.650 --> 1:12:59.320 It's like a camera. It's like a color camera that's 1:12:59.380 --> 1:13:01.180 a wand. And they stick it in there and they 1:13:01.280 --> 1:13:03.150 wand your teeth. Let me tell you something right now. 1:13:03.160 --> 1:13:05.550 You know what you don't want to see in full 1:13:05.610 --> 1:13:08.410 color in front of your face on a television screen? 1:13:08.450 --> 1:13:09.030 Don't say it. 1:13:09.030 --> 1:13:11.229 The inside of your mouth? The back of your teeth. 1:13:11.950 --> 1:13:12.070 Oh. 1:13:14.150 --> 1:13:15.260 You got to brush there, dude. 1:13:15.439 --> 1:13:17.280 I know I brushed there, but man, apparently I don't 1:13:17.300 --> 1:13:20.540 brush there enough because I'm telling you, that was not flattering. Yeah, 1:13:20.660 --> 1:13:23.639 it's tough. When they put that up on the screen, 1:13:23.660 --> 1:13:28.000 I'm like, what is that animal? And I'm like, that 1:13:28.520 --> 1:13:31.740 is my teeth. It is not good, Debra. I mean, 1:13:31.780 --> 1:13:33.840 you have perfect teeth. You don't have to worry about it. 1:13:33.939 --> 1:13:34.759 Have you ever had a cavity? 1:13:35.300 --> 1:13:36.200 Of course, yeah. 1:13:36.240 --> 1:13:38.230 You have an absolute gorgeous. But you and Jack both 1:13:38.270 --> 1:13:41.470 have perfect teeth. I got Will Ferrell teeth.

But, 1:13:48.510 --> 1:13:50.910 I mean, just because your teeth are straight and you 1:13:50.930 --> 1:13:53.349 might not have a nice smile doesn't speak to the 1:13:53.410 --> 1:13:55.610 condition of your mouth and the teeth. 1:13:55.880 --> 1:13:57.920 Truthfully, you know, my wife found out she had her 1:13:58.020 --> 1:14:00.800 first cavity like two years ago, you know, and she's, 1:14:00.860 --> 1:14:01.300 you know, in her. 1:14:02.320 --> 1:14:03.519 She's like you? 1:14:04.050 --> 1:14:07.910 Man, did you learn quick. 1:14:08.030 --> 1:14:09.630 She's in her early adulthood. 1:14:10.130 --> 1:14:11.450 She's had a birthday.

Yeah, let's get Invisalign. Somebody get us 1:16:18.340 --> 1:16:21.019 some drinks or something, man. You don't need it. 1:16:21.040 --> 1:16:21.719 You're getting braces. 1:16:21.740 --> 1:16:24.360 This has been the whack. Look, Dolly Parton passing just 1:16:24.390 --> 1:16:27.809 made this Tuesday. If I had a cone full of S, 1:16:28.290 --> 1:16:31.370 this is the cream on top of it. Do you 1:16:31.390 --> 1:16:33.990 have an appointment set yet? I want to start the countdown. 1:16:33.610 --> 1:16:34.830 To your list. Oh, man. 1:16:37.330 --> 1:16:41.229 It's going to be a minute. And I got to 1:16:41.250 --> 1:16:43.430 get teeth whitening and I got to get all kinds 1:16:43.470 --> 1:16:45.530 of stuff, guys. That's cosmetic. 1:16:45.550 --> 1:16:46.570 You don't have to do that. 1:16:46.650 --> 1:16:48.229 Yeah, you know, you have to because here's the thing. 1:16:48.250 --> 1:16:50.130 I got these fakies when I got my teeth knocked 1:16:50.150 --> 1:16:53.530 out by this girl in school. She slung a purse 1:16:53.590 --> 1:16:54.910 at me and had a perfume bottle in it and 1:16:54.970 --> 1:16:58.559 it literally liquefied these two teeth right there. So those 1:16:58.620 --> 1:17:03.000 are fakies. And now you can, because it's old technology. 1:17:03.660 --> 1:17:06.019 And it doesn't look great. And my other teeth are 1:17:06.100 --> 1:17:09.309 naturally getting, you know, when you get older, your teeth 1:17:09.350 --> 1:17:11.440 get that gray or brown color. I just don't care 1:17:11.470 --> 1:17:12.009 what you do. 1:17:12.350 --> 1:17:12.590 Right. 1:17:12.890 --> 1:17:15.630 And so I've got to get them whitened. But then 1:17:16.050 --> 1:17:17.769 I said, can you whiten them to that tone? She goes, 1:17:17.810 --> 1:17:19.590 let's just replace all of that and just get it 1:17:19.630 --> 1:17:21.050 all done at once.

And it almost looks like 1:18:04.470 --> 1:18:05.050 a tattoo. 1:18:05.250 --> 1:18:07.610 Like everybody knows what's under it. Yeah, but it's great, though. 1:18:07.670 --> 1:18:10.290 Rather than seeing the pimple, there's a little medicated patch, 1:18:10.330 --> 1:18:12.349 but it's in the shape of a heart or a star. 1:18:12.510 --> 1:18:13.410 And kids are doing that? 1:18:13.550 --> 1:18:13.830 Yes. 1:18:14.470 --> 1:18:14.770 No. 1:18:14.990 --> 1:18:15.550 Yes. 1:18:15.750 --> 1:18:18.510 They're bringing attention to their acne by putting stars on it? 1:18:18.570 --> 1:18:21.820 My daughter used one at work.

I 1:19:01.710 --> 1:19:04.229 have become a little self-conscious about my smile over the years. 1:19:04.410 --> 1:19:04.790 Really? 1:19:04.810 --> 1:19:05.490 Yeah, yeah. 1:19:05.670 --> 1:19:06.570 That happens. 1:19:06.630 --> 1:19:08.250 Just taking pictures the other day. We were taking them 1:19:08.270 --> 1:19:10.290 at the Science Center for the poker tournament. I was 1:19:10.310 --> 1:19:11.770 looking at some of those pictures. I'm like, damn, dude, 1:19:11.790 --> 1:19:15.030 that sucks. You get that wacko smile there. I want 1:19:15.060 --> 1:19:18.000 to get that taken care of. And I want Jack 1:19:18.020 --> 1:19:20.300 to make fun of me while I do it. Texter says, 1:19:20.400 --> 1:19:22.339 Jimmy would hate Invisalign. 1:19:22.400 --> 1:19:23.360 It's super annoying. 1:19:23.400 --> 1:19:27.020 You cannot eat or drink anything while you're wearing your retainer, 1:19:27.280 --> 1:19:29.639 and you have to brush your teeth every time you 1:19:29.700 --> 1:19:33.900 take it out if you're going to eat before you 1:19:33.939 --> 1:19:34.589 put it back in. 1:19:34.600 --> 1:19:35.050 Yeah. 1:19:35.430 --> 1:19:40.910 And they're in HR. They talk 24-7 at work and 1:19:40.950 --> 1:19:42.730 cannot wear it during the day. 1:19:42.810 --> 1:19:44.350 And the other thing, too, is you can get them 1:19:44.390 --> 1:19:46.729 behind your teeth as well, right? But I heard that 1:19:46.850 --> 1:19:50.070 is a complete pain in the ass. Because they're really 1:19:50.110 --> 1:19:52.229 hard to clean. Have you heard that before? No, but 1:19:52.250 --> 1:19:53.550 I think you should try it. But they can put 1:19:53.570 --> 1:19:55.770 them behind. They can put the little things behind your 1:19:55.790 --> 1:19:59.430 teeth instead of in front. And I've heard that. I 1:19:59.450 --> 1:20:00.850 knew people who had that, and they said it was 1:20:00.890 --> 1:20:03.570 a complete nightmare because they're so hard to clean, and 1:20:03.610 --> 1:20:05.179 your tongue always gets caught on it. 1:20:05.180 --> 1:20:09.019 100%. I can imagine that. Because you just pointed out 1:20:09.100 --> 1:20:11.059 how hard it is to brush behind your teeth. 1:20:11.100 --> 1:20:11.559 It is, yeah. 1:20:11.580 --> 1:20:14.920 Imagine if you have hardware there, and your tongue would 1:20:14.939 --> 1:20:16.880 be constantly hitting it. 1:20:16.939 --> 1:20:17.280 Duh. 1:20:17.300 --> 1:20:17.370 Ah. 1:20:17.380 --> 1:20:17.780 All right. 1:20:19.490 --> 1:20:22.430 Baby's getting braces. 1:20:22.490 --> 1:20:26.210 All right, 407-916-1041.

To 1:22:01.780 --> 1:22:04.120 be able to really confirm it as opposed to, I mean, 1:22:04.140 --> 1:22:06.139 you can look at story length and how many words 1:22:06.200 --> 1:22:06.620 are written. 1:22:06.640 --> 1:22:07.180 Sure, yeah, yeah. 1:22:07.260 --> 1:22:09.930 All right, welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show. We're 1:22:09.950 --> 1:22:11.150 already at 104.1. 1:22:11.150 --> 1:22:12.689 I'm Jim. Deb is right there. Hello. 1:22:12.710 --> 1:22:16.070 Greg is here as well. Yeah, somebody was just texting 1:22:16.090 --> 1:22:18.090 and said, hey, be careful with your dentist. They upsell 1:22:18.110 --> 1:22:21.900 like vets. You got to be very careful because you 1:22:21.920 --> 1:22:24.220 don't know the lingo. You don't know anything what's going on. 1:22:24.240 --> 1:22:28.180 You trust them because they're doctors. And you don't realize that, 1:22:28.220 --> 1:22:30.460 you know, they're also a business. And you get in 1:22:30.479 --> 1:22:31.760 there and you think they're like, okay, you're going to 1:22:31.780 --> 1:22:32.940 look good here. You're going to look good there. Next 1:22:32.960 --> 1:22:35.870 thing you know, you're looking at a bill. It's like 10K, 15K. 1:22:36.460 --> 1:22:41.090 It's important to know, just like vets, who's the owner 1:22:41.510 --> 1:22:42.310 of that business? 1:22:42.390 --> 1:22:42.770 Right. 1:22:43.050 --> 1:22:46.229 Is it a private equity firm where the local dentist 1:22:46.270 --> 1:22:50.830 has to hit a certain benchmark of sales to remain profitable? 1:22:50.870 --> 1:22:52.070 That's a very good question. 1:22:52.090 --> 1:22:52.170 Yeah. 1:22:52.430 --> 1:22:53.830 By the way, can I ask you a question on that, Jack? 1:22:53.850 --> 1:22:57.190 Do you think it's improper? Because that also has happened 1:22:57.220 --> 1:22:58.360 with veterinarians as well. 1:22:58.520 --> 1:22:58.920 Correct. 1:22:58.939 --> 1:23:00.939 The big vet, the hedge fund guys came in. They 1:23:00.979 --> 1:23:03.160 started buying up these vets, these mom-and-pop vets. They let 1:23:03.200 --> 1:23:05.920 them keep their name, but they are now beholden to 1:23:05.939 --> 1:23:08.240 the budgets that are … The people who gave them 1:23:08.260 --> 1:23:11.479 the money, right? Yeah, and they have to upsell, upsell, upsell. 1:23:11.920 --> 1:23:14.360 Is it not proper to ask them that? Like if 1:23:14.400 --> 1:23:16.010 you go to a vet, can you ask them, hey, 1:23:16.070 --> 1:23:18.370 are you sole owners of this or are you guys 1:23:18.770 --> 1:23:21.470 beholden to a hedge fund that bought you out? It 1:23:21.610 --> 1:23:24.559 is 100% appropriate to ask. Is it really? 1:23:24.640 --> 1:23:26.300 I would just, you know. 1:23:26.320 --> 1:23:27.540 Be prepared they don't have to answer. 1:23:27.560 --> 1:23:28.080 Well, yeah. 1:23:28.689 --> 1:23:32.410 If they want your business, if it's an independent owner, 1:23:32.530 --> 1:23:34.840 I know we are, you know, I think they'd be 1:23:34.920 --> 1:23:37.200 proud to say that if they don't already have that 1:23:37.260 --> 1:23:39.260 somewhere on the wall. I think my dentist has it 1:23:39.380 --> 1:23:41.440 somewhere like in the lobby. 1:23:41.600 --> 1:23:43.900 Interesting because the dentist that I went to this morning, 1:23:44.120 --> 1:23:47.470 actually the dentist's name is in the name of the business. 1:23:48.120 --> 1:23:51.020 It's blank by blank, and the last blank is the 1:23:51.060 --> 1:23:52.100 person's last name. 1:23:52.200 --> 1:23:54.439 I'd still check. Yeah, I will. They may have bought 1:23:54.479 --> 1:23:54.849 the name, too. 1:23:54.860 --> 1:23:57.470 And by the way, it's a beautiful facility. It really is. 1:23:57.510 --> 1:24:00.010 I mean, completely safe. She's an unbelievable professional. I mean, 1:24:00.030 --> 1:24:01.170 she was really, really good. 1:24:01.290 --> 1:24:05.290 It's nice when you find someone who's great, does their 1:24:05.310 --> 1:24:07.490 job well, you like going there, and they're in your plan. 1:24:07.770 --> 1:24:09.910 And by the way, here's the other thing. Check this out, right? 1:24:10.020 --> 1:24:12.240 Because I haven't used any of the dental insurance this 1:24:12.260 --> 1:24:15.640 year yet. So I think we went at like $ 1, 500 1:24:14.920 --> 1:24:15.580 or something for that. 1:24:15.700 --> 1:24:16.170 Is that what it is? 1:24:16.960 --> 1:24:19.480 Is it per policy? I think mine's like $ 1, 500 or something, right? 1:24:19.700 --> 1:24:20.300 To pay for it? 1:24:20.320 --> 1:24:24.630 Yeah, it applies that towards your bill for each year. 1:24:24.650 --> 1:24:25.269 Oh, okay. 1:24:25.290 --> 1:24:26.830 So if I get this stuff done at the end 1:24:26.850 --> 1:24:28.450 of this year, I can carry it over to the 1:24:28.479 --> 1:24:31.550 beginning of that next year and boom, boom. You know 1:24:31.560 --> 1:24:31.969 what I'm saying? 1:24:32.280 --> 1:24:33.410 Oh, yeah, you got a plan. 1:24:34.110 --> 1:24:35.250 And by the way, I got to tell you, I 1:24:35.290 --> 1:24:37.450 thought it was going to be way more. This is 1:24:37.510 --> 1:24:39.230 one of the few times I went to the doctor, 1:24:39.689 --> 1:24:41.850 and when they showed me the bill or what they 1:24:41.910 --> 1:24:44.070 want to do, like this is a projection. 1:24:44.410 --> 1:24:46.570 And it was way less than I thought it was 1:24:46.590 --> 1:24:48.769 going to be, dude. That's how I feel when I 1:24:48.830 --> 1:24:49.590 check out at Aldi. 1:24:49.950 --> 1:24:50.229 Really? 1:24:51.410 --> 1:24:53.230 Wow, that's way less than I was expecting.

But you have a BJ's thing 1:25:21.220 --> 1:25:22.559 and you have a Costco thing, but you don't really 1:25:22.600 --> 1:25:23.680 talk about BJ's very often. 1:25:23.700 --> 1:25:24.959 You talk about Costco a lot. 1:25:25.240 --> 1:25:28.620 I talk about what I have the opportunity to talk about. 1:25:28.860 --> 1:25:30.940 Every time I talk about getting gas, where do I 1:25:30.979 --> 1:25:33.070 get gas, Jimmy? Where do I get gas? 1:25:33.130 --> 1:25:35.610 Costco, dude. No, I get it at BJ's. See, you 1:25:35.630 --> 1:25:36.190 don't listen. 1:25:36.810 --> 1:25:38.890 You don't listen. That's the one thing you got right today. 1:25:40.600 --> 1:25:45.100 All right, 407-916-1041. Text us at 77031. So I saw 1:25:45.640 --> 1:25:48.800 a story in the BBC today, and it's a story 1:25:48.840 --> 1:25:52.400 about United States restaurants, about restaurants in this country. And 1:25:52.420 --> 1:25:56.420 I find it interesting. And it's a new way that 1:25:56.479 --> 1:26:01.150 restaurants are handling their business, specifically one part of it, 1:26:02.720 --> 1:26:03.560 the part that we all hate. 1:26:04.740 --> 1:26:05.000 Tipping. 1:26:05.400 --> 1:26:05.700 Tipping. 1:26:06.200 --> 1:26:07.019 I was going to say pang. 1:26:08.830 --> 1:26:10.800 Same. 1:26:10.920 --> 1:26:14.420 So what's happening now is there are a series of restaurants. 1:26:14.479 --> 1:26:16.059 This one that they're talking about happens to be in 1:26:16.100 --> 1:26:19.000 San Francisco, but later down the story, there's another one 1:26:19.020 --> 1:26:20.580 I believe that's in New York. What do you think 1:26:20.600 --> 1:26:26.840 the change is? Including it in the bill? That's exactly it. 1:26:27.710 --> 1:26:30.170 No more tipping at these restaurants. They do not tip. 1:26:30.930 --> 1:26:33.090 But what they tell you is, it says when you 1:26:33.130 --> 1:26:36.380 go in there, It's a set price of $ 140 a 1:26:36.520 --> 1:26:38.720 person to eat at that restaurant. Now, of course, we 1:26:38.760 --> 1:26:40.460 see that a lot in restaurants these days with these 1:26:40.500 --> 1:26:41.320 prefix menus. 1:26:41.400 --> 1:26:41.599 Right. 1:26:41.680 --> 1:26:43.969 Magical is going on right now. It's a prefix menu. 1:26:44.010 --> 1:26:46.830 You have $ 40 or $ 5 or $ 60, whatever restaurant you 1:26:46.850 --> 1:26:49.309 go to. It usually is dependent on the proteins you're 1:26:49.330 --> 1:26:52.269 getting in that particular meal, right? If you're getting filet 1:26:52.310 --> 1:26:55.060 and prawns and stuff, you can expect your meal to 1:26:55.100 --> 1:26:57.300 be $ 60 for that particular thing. But if it's just 1:26:57.320 --> 1:26:59.550 like a chicken and stuff like that, It won't be 1:26:59.810 --> 1:27:04.250 as expensive. What they're saying is they're pre-setting everything up 1:27:04.330 --> 1:27:06.450 front so that when you come and have dinner at 1:27:06.490 --> 1:27:10.710 the restaurant, it's out-the-door pricing. There is no more, you know, 1:27:10.729 --> 1:27:12.769 you feel guilty because of this or this person did 1:27:12.810 --> 1:27:15.740 this or whatever. That allows them to pay the staff 1:27:15.920 --> 1:27:17.660 equally because one of the things they talk about, and 1:27:17.700 --> 1:27:19.479 we don't talk about this very often. I really have 1:27:19.520 --> 1:27:22.259 never asked this question. When it comes to tip sharing, 1:27:22.740 --> 1:27:25.389 isn't that just with the servers and the bar staff? 1:27:26.330 --> 1:27:30.450 It depends on the place. You have hostesses that will 1:27:30.630 --> 1:27:34.550 run food for to-go orders. If they get tipped, sometimes 1:27:34.850 --> 1:27:37.520 they include the kitchen. Sometimes they don't. 1:27:37.900 --> 1:27:41.160 But servers will tip out the bar because the bar 1:27:41.200 --> 1:27:43.420 is making their drinks for their table. 1:27:43.540 --> 1:27:45.200 Right, right, right. So as.. 1:27:45.680 --> 1:27:49.160 I mentioned the hostesses might also bust tables. Then you 1:27:49.200 --> 1:27:52.420 tip out your busser too because as a server, you 1:27:52.460 --> 1:27:54.420 want them to turn that table– you want to turn 1:27:54.439 --> 1:27:57.200 your table over as fast as possible. The sooner the 1:27:57.400 --> 1:28:01.100 busser cleans it, the more you can get another table 1:28:01.120 --> 1:28:03.450 there and make more money. So it's kind of– you 1:28:03.490 --> 1:28:06.330 tip out the people who help you do your job better. 1:28:06.450 --> 1:28:06.729 Yeah. 1:28:07.150 --> 1:28:10.729 So what I– I did not know this, Deb, but apparently– 1:28:10.930 --> 1:28:13.010 like the kitchen kind of gets forgotten, but they're on 1:28:13.030 --> 1:28:14.769 a different pay schedule altogether though. 1:28:14.810 --> 1:28:14.990 Right. 1:28:15.010 --> 1:28:17.030 Because, you know, they get paid, like, you know, if 1:28:17.050 --> 1:28:19.229 you get a good chef or whatever, maybe they're making 25, 1:28:19.229 --> 1:28:21.880 30 bucks an hour or whatever. They don't like, they're 1:28:21.900 --> 1:28:22.700 not in that world. 1:28:22.760 --> 1:28:22.980 Right. 1:28:23.000 --> 1:28:24.180 They don't, they don't get to be part of that. 1:28:24.720 --> 1:28:28.900 And they say that is a gross disproportionate scenario for 1:28:28.939 --> 1:28:31.219 the entire restaurant. I believe this restaurant is doing it 1:28:31.220 --> 1:28:33.089 kind of like we take in all the money. We're 1:28:33.090 --> 1:28:35.580 paying everybody. Well, like as a server, you're going to 1:28:35.580 --> 1:28:37.520 wind up making $ 35, $ 40 an hour. As a cook, 1:28:37.530 --> 1:28:40.480 you're going to wind up making this. And that way 1:28:40.500 --> 1:28:43.260 there's no tipping, no pressure. That's the whole idea of 1:28:43.280 --> 1:28:46.519 what they're doing here. Nice. Now, what that means is 1:28:46.540 --> 1:28:48.480 when you look at your dinner and you see, and 1:28:48.500 --> 1:28:51.820 it's so funny because you almost have to fool yourself 1:28:51.860 --> 1:28:54.300 into believing that. How much was your dinner? It was $ 25. 1:28:54.240 --> 1:28:58.700 But how much was your tab? Oh, it was $ 50. 1:28:57.410 --> 1:28:59.110 you know, or 70 or 80. Like we went to 1:28:59.210 --> 1:29:01.160 the magical dining that are night. And because we got 1:29:01.180 --> 1:29:03.320 a couple of cocktails, what our bill could have been 1:29:03.340 --> 1:29:03.560 was $ 120. 1:29:03.500 --> 1:29:03.600 Right. 1:29:03.660 --> 1:29:08.370 Because it was $ 60 a person. But we didn't stop there. 1:29:08.410 --> 1:29:10.730 We got some wine, we got a cocktail, and then 1:29:10.770 --> 1:29:12.130 your dinner, add that on. And then when you put 1:29:12.150 --> 1:29:15.349 your tip on there, you're like, wow, it doubled. Almost 1:29:15.439 --> 1:29:19.360 doubled just by adding a couple things on. And this 1:29:19.560 --> 1:29:22.740 process doesn't really do that when it comes to that. Now, 1:29:22.780 --> 1:29:25.439 if you order cocktails, of course, it's different. That's just 1:29:25.479 --> 1:29:28.640 the meal experience is that much. And, you know, that 1:29:28.660 --> 1:29:30.519 means no more tipping, no more any of that stuff. 1:29:30.689 --> 1:29:33.150 There's no pressure on that. You know, people in the 1:29:33.189 --> 1:29:35.349 context of the story were asking, well, is that going 1:29:35.370 --> 1:29:38.590 to diminish the quality of my service? Because if the 1:29:38.630 --> 1:29:41.690 person knows that it's a set fee going in, will 1:29:41.729 --> 1:29:43.470 they give me that same service trying to get a 1:29:43.470 --> 1:29:45.050 little extra money on me by doing that a little 1:29:45.070 --> 1:29:45.730 bit much more? 1:29:46.229 --> 1:29:50.850 Or if the compensation is right for them, it's a job. 1:29:51.110 --> 1:29:53.469 They know what they're going to make. They like doing 1:29:53.510 --> 1:29:54.750 that and they want to keep it. 1:29:54.790 --> 1:29:54.970 Right. 1:29:55.350 --> 1:29:57.430 So they're not going to do anything to jeopardize that 1:29:57.470 --> 1:29:59.790 by putting forth poor service. 1:29:59.910 --> 1:30:00.090 Yeah. 1:30:00.110 --> 1:30:02.190 And that's exactly what somebody just texted into the problem, 1:30:02.210 --> 1:30:04.410 not having a tip structure. There's no incentive for working 1:30:04.470 --> 1:30:06.910 harder or providing a really memorable experience. 1:30:07.189 --> 1:30:07.610 But you know what? 1:30:07.650 --> 1:30:09.389 I think that goes to the culture of the restaurant, 1:30:09.410 --> 1:30:09.870 does it not? 1:30:10.010 --> 1:30:10.170 Yeah. 1:30:10.490 --> 1:30:10.610 Yeah. 1:30:10.630 --> 1:30:12.050 Because I mean, if you have a good head chef, 1:30:12.070 --> 1:30:14.650 you have a good general manager and they're building a 1:30:14.729 --> 1:30:16.800 culture of, Hey, look, let's go out there and kill it, 1:30:16.900 --> 1:30:19.340 you know, because we can get more covers in here and, 1:30:19.380 --> 1:30:21.979 you know, and, and, you know, make more money and, uh, 1:30:22.420 --> 1:30:25.640 you know, I mean, it doesn't matter. I guess it's 1:30:25.660 --> 1:30:27.720 going to be set at 20%. Isn't it the industry 1:30:27.760 --> 1:30:30.700 standard now, like 20%? Or is that still considered a 1:30:30.720 --> 1:30:31.179 good tip? 1:30:31.180 --> 1:30:34.760 20% is good. Well, it might be because it always 1:30:34.840 --> 1:30:37.660 starts at now. It used to be 15%, 18%, and 1:30:37.740 --> 1:30:39.639 then 20%. What are the three options when they give 1:30:39.700 --> 1:30:40.780 you those predetermined options? 1:30:40.780 --> 1:30:42.540 15% is off the board. It starts at 18% now. Yeah, 1:30:42.560 --> 1:30:43.110 it starts at 18%. 1:30:43.090 --> 1:30:43.200 18%, 22%, 30%. 1:30:43.180 --> 1:30:53.010 Yeah, 18%, 22%, 30%. 30%. That's because you go to 1:30:53.050 --> 1:30:53.650 fancy places. 1:30:53.689 --> 1:30:55.830 But as somebody who used to wait tables, I mean, 1:30:56.050 --> 1:30:59.110 that experience, you could bust your ass on a table 1:30:59.170 --> 1:31:01.410 of eight, and they'll leave you a couple of bucks. 1:31:01.550 --> 1:31:03.970 Or better yet, one of those cards that says Jesus 1:31:04.030 --> 1:31:04.390 loves you. 1:31:04.450 --> 1:31:04.979 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1:31:05.070 --> 1:31:06.840 Because those always help pay your bills. 1:31:07.060 --> 1:31:10.059 You know, it is funny. That does happen. A lot. 1:31:10.200 --> 1:31:11.900 My son is a server, and he's been doing it 1:31:11.939 --> 1:31:13.420 for quite a while, and he's very good at it, 1:31:13.460 --> 1:31:17.600 does very well. Yeah. I wonder how he would react 1:31:17.620 --> 1:31:19.560 to this because I got to tell you, I think 1:31:19.580 --> 1:31:21.820 he would not be for this, and I'll tell you why. 1:31:22.340 --> 1:31:25.740 He's really learned how to do this job. He's learned 1:31:25.770 --> 1:31:27.730 how to be courteous. He's learned how to be charming 1:31:27.830 --> 1:31:31.110 and be funny and give the people a really good 1:31:31.170 --> 1:31:33.870 experience at the restaurant, and they take good care of him. 1:31:34.310 --> 1:31:36.110 If they take that out of his pocket, I wonder 1:31:36.130 --> 1:31:38.990 if that would make him feel like literally are taking 1:31:39.060 --> 1:31:42.280 the opportunity away from him to showcase his skill set. 1:31:42.640 --> 1:31:44.620 Well, what I was talking about was when I waited 1:31:44.660 --> 1:31:46.880 tables at Mark's Big Boy. That's going to be a 1:31:46.979 --> 1:31:50.200 market of difference from where your son is working. So 1:31:50.240 --> 1:31:52.860 maybe for those restaurants where you're not looking for a 1:31:52.900 --> 1:31:56.990 dining experience, but your staff still wants to get paid, 1:31:57.330 --> 1:31:59.170 maybe that would work better for that and let the 1:31:59.210 --> 1:32:02.030 fine dining establishment still allow their waitstaff. 1:32:02.590 --> 1:32:04.230 To determine the size of the tip. 1:32:04.310 --> 1:32:07.570 And look, the place he works, he has regulars. He 1:32:08.050 --> 1:32:10.550 has people that come in once a week, every week. 1:32:10.590 --> 1:32:12.590 They get the same table. They sit in his section. 1:32:12.610 --> 1:32:16.130 They specifically ask for him. And I think that if 1:32:16.150 --> 1:32:17.970 they were to change that process, I don't know that 1:32:18.010 --> 1:32:19.809 that would matter. I mean, I guess they probably would 1:32:19.830 --> 1:32:23.270 because they like his personality, but I don't know. And 1:32:23.300 --> 1:32:25.300 I guess you still have the option, even if you pay, 1:32:25.360 --> 1:32:27.200 if you wanted to throw the guy a couple extra dollars, 1:32:27.360 --> 1:32:29.479 even on top of the tip tip, you could do that. 1:32:29.540 --> 1:32:33.019 But man, I mean... You know, already you're getting hit 1:32:33.040 --> 1:32:34.560 for 20, 22%. I can't imagine people are going to 1:32:34.580 --> 1:32:37.360 start shelling out more cash, even if they do like 1:32:37.400 --> 1:32:43.240 the person. I mean, I like him. I ain't getting 1:32:43.280 --> 1:32:46.889 any more money. All right. 407-916-1041. Text us at 77031. 1:32:46.890 --> 1:32:49.450 Is this Amendment 3? Is that what the number is? 1:32:49.810 --> 1:32:52.550 So this property tax incentive, of course, when it first dropped, 1:32:52.650 --> 1:32:54.610 got as much attention as you can imagine, of course, 1:32:55.010 --> 1:32:59.590 as November approaches and the voting will be happening on 1:32:59.630 --> 1:33:02.269 this amendment. It's really starting to ramp up. Have you 1:33:02.290 --> 1:33:04.960 guys seen it on social? How much conversation is happening 1:33:04.979 --> 1:33:05.460 about this now? 1:33:06.380 --> 1:33:08.760 Yeah, well, when it first came out, I saw a 1:33:08.820 --> 1:33:13.950 lot of, you know, that's when towns, municipalities are saying, look, 1:33:14.030 --> 1:33:16.910 this is our budget, and this is where the money 1:33:16.950 --> 1:33:19.290 comes from. This is what we spend it on, and 1:33:19.390 --> 1:33:20.690 something's going to give here. 1:33:20.890 --> 1:33:24.450 For me, it was seeing conservative sheriffs around Central Florida, 1:33:24.530 --> 1:33:29.780 from Mike Chitwood to Grady Judd, when they came out 1:33:29.880 --> 1:33:32.360 and said, you know, Wayne Ivey over in Brevard County, 1:33:32.479 --> 1:33:35.870 when Grady Judd said, this is a train wreck. I 1:33:35.910 --> 1:33:38.350 thought that's something worth paying attention to because he's a 1:33:38.370 --> 1:33:40.870 conservative sheriff and he's talking about how this is going 1:33:40.890 --> 1:33:42.450 to affect your public safety. 1:33:42.570 --> 1:33:43.080 Yeah, 100%. 1:33:43.070 --> 1:33:45.099 So we have Charles Chapman. He's going to join us. 1:33:45.140 --> 1:33:48.260 He's a legislative advocate for the Florida League of Cities, 1:33:48.300 --> 1:33:51.339 and they deal with a lot of cities around Florida. 1:33:51.560 --> 1:33:54.220 And we're going to talk to him about what that 1:33:54.300 --> 1:33:56.940 could do to cities that you live in as you listen. 1:33:56.970 --> 1:33:58.050 So we'll talk to Charles next. 1:33:58.570 --> 1:34:01.570 The common sense financial advice you need. It's only money 1:34:01.610 --> 1:34:04.590 with Scott Brown. Today at 620 on The Jim Colbert Show. 1:34:06.560 --> 1:34:08.270 All right, welcome back to the Jim Culver Show. We're 1:34:08.310 --> 1:34:10.910 already at 104.1. Thanks so much for tuning in today, guys. 1:34:10.950 --> 1:34:12.870 We appreciate that very much, as we do every day. 1:34:12.990 --> 1:34:13.390 I am Jim. 1:34:13.410 --> 1:34:13.910 There's Deborah. 1:34:14.250 --> 1:34:14.650 Hello. 1:34:14.710 --> 1:34:15.410 Jack is here as well. 1:34:15.510 --> 1:34:15.810 What up? 1:34:15.990 --> 1:34:17.450 And Jack is the one who gave me the heads 1:34:17.530 --> 1:34:19.570 up on this gentleman. We've been looking for someone who 1:34:19.610 --> 1:34:22.250 can really speak to this issue and make sure people 1:34:22.270 --> 1:34:24.850 understand what they're voting for come November. You guys give 1:34:24.870 --> 1:34:26.610 it up good and loud for Charles Chapman. What do 1:34:26.630 --> 1:34:30.990 you say? Charles, how you doing, buddy? 1:34:31.850 --> 1:34:35.460 I'm doing fantastic. Better than I deserve and totally happy. 1:34:35.300 --> 1:34:36.019 To be with you guys. 1:34:36.580 --> 1:34:38.900 So glad to hear that. This is something that we 1:34:38.920 --> 1:34:41.800 have been talking about since the inception of this idea. 1:34:42.460 --> 1:34:44.840 We've had on a couple of mayors, Mayor of Sanford, 1:34:44.880 --> 1:34:48.389 Mayor of Oviedo up here in the Orlando area. Both 1:34:48.400 --> 1:34:51.269 of them kind of laid it out pretty bluntly exactly 1:34:51.310 --> 1:34:54.990 what could happen if this property tax initiative does go through, 1:34:55.290 --> 1:34:58.229 trying to explain to people what they could lose in 1:34:58.270 --> 1:35:00.719 their community. And a lot of people really for some reason, 1:35:00.760 --> 1:35:04.179 have a real hard take on that. There's this overwhelming 1:35:04.220 --> 1:35:07.110 concern that the government is really wasting everybody's tax dollars. 1:35:07.490 --> 1:35:09.590 And I think we can both agree that certainly has 1:35:09.650 --> 1:35:11.970 happened before. But can you kind of lay out what 1:35:12.110 --> 1:35:15.250 cities and municipalities are looking at if this does make 1:35:15.310 --> 1:35:16.950 it through or what's happening with this? 1:35:18.010 --> 1:35:20.780 Well, great. Thank you for that, Tia. And thank you 1:35:20.800 --> 1:35:23.120 for having those mayors on. I mean, their voices are 1:35:23.160 --> 1:35:25.559 so important. They really have their boots on the ground. 1:35:25.860 --> 1:35:28.820 They know their cities best. Working for the Florida League 1:35:28.840 --> 1:35:31.960 of Cities, we represent all 411 cities in the state 1:35:32.000 --> 1:35:34.810 of Florida, from Pensacola to Key West. So we get 1:35:34.850 --> 1:35:38.470 to see this truism, right, that cities come in all 1:35:38.630 --> 1:35:42.010 different shapes and sizes, right? And it comes down to this. 1:35:42.110 --> 1:35:45.790 Cities are the only government of choice in the state 1:35:45.810 --> 1:35:49.089 of Florida. When you move here, you don't have a choice. 1:35:49.150 --> 1:35:51.570 You're going to live in a county. You're going to 1:35:51.610 --> 1:35:54.730 live in a school district. you're going to end up 1:35:54.790 --> 1:35:57.150 in some sort of a special district for water management, 1:35:57.210 --> 1:35:59.330 most likely, and then there's a variety of other different 1:35:59.750 --> 1:36:03.250 smaller special districts. But you, as a consumer, get to 1:36:03.290 --> 1:36:05.850 make a choice of whether or not you're going to 1:36:05.870 --> 1:36:08.780 live in the unincorporated county for that level of service 1:36:08.800 --> 1:36:11.360 they provide, or you're going to choose to live in 1:36:11.420 --> 1:36:16.520 a city for a different level, most oftentimes higher level 1:36:16.560 --> 1:36:20.100 of service, for your total quality of life experience. And 1:36:20.150 --> 1:36:22.870 so For me to give you a one-size-fits-all answer is 1:36:22.910 --> 1:36:27.050 almost impossible because even in Orlando, the Orange County area, 1:36:27.070 --> 1:36:30.610 you've got Orlando as the major metropolitan area. They're looking 1:36:30.650 --> 1:36:36.110 at a massive loss from this $ 150, 000 to $ 250, 000 homestead 1:36:36.180 --> 1:36:42.260 exemption two-step that this is moving into, where they're losing 1:36:42.260 --> 1:36:44.420 $ 31 million in the first year, $ 59 million in the 1:36:44.460 --> 1:36:47.360 next year. But then you have this case study right 1:36:47.380 --> 1:36:49.970 down the road, and Edgewood is And they're going to 1:36:50.010 --> 1:36:56.160 be losing, in a small municipality itself, $ 453, 000, $ 857, 000 respectively 1:36:56.200 --> 1:36:59.580 year one, year two. Now, those numbers are significantly smaller. 1:37:00.060 --> 1:37:02.240 But what that means is that Edgewood is going to 1:37:02.260 --> 1:37:05.630 be faced with a series of decisions for the services 1:37:05.650 --> 1:37:08.470 that they provide to those residents that call that place home. 1:37:08.910 --> 1:37:10.870 That's not simply going to be, oh, we're going to 1:37:10.950 --> 1:37:12.990 peel back a little service here, or we're going to 1:37:13.030 --> 1:37:14.590 make a little trend there, and you're still going to 1:37:14.610 --> 1:37:17.660 have the same experience. No, this is flesh and bone 1:37:17.740 --> 1:37:21.850 type conversations where some programs may have to end. In 1:37:21.910 --> 1:37:24.590 extreme examples, there are cities in the state of Florida 1:37:24.630 --> 1:37:29.219 that they only receive property tax revenue. And this may 1:37:29.270 --> 1:37:31.540 make them have to have some really tough choices of 1:37:31.580 --> 1:37:36.660 either becoming completely state-funded dependent through grants and revenue shares, 1:37:36.720 --> 1:37:38.580 which means they got to go to Tallahassee with their 1:37:38.600 --> 1:37:41.550 handout and say, can you help us fund these services? 1:37:41.620 --> 1:37:45.679 And that's a whole different conversation than what our current 1:37:45.800 --> 1:37:48.920 representative democracy was meant to make, that you get to 1:37:48.960 --> 1:37:51.660 talk to the decision maker and the public's checkout line, 1:37:51.780 --> 1:37:53.990 and you get to vote on those local city officials 1:37:54.450 --> 1:37:56.729 on how they're spending their money. And it takes the 1:37:56.770 --> 1:37:59.470 decision from home and plants it up here in the 1:37:59.510 --> 1:38:02.930 capital city, which I call this place home. But at 1:38:02.970 --> 1:38:05.599 the same time, do you really want people in Tallahassee 1:38:05.640 --> 1:38:09.640 making decisions for you back in Maitland or Ocoee or 1:38:09.800 --> 1:38:11.060 Edgewood or Belle Isle? 1:38:11.420 --> 1:38:11.560 Yes. 1:38:13.120 --> 1:38:14.960 Yeah, and Charles, I didn't mean to interrupt. My apologies. 1:38:15.180 --> 1:38:16.020 Of course. 1:38:16.820 --> 1:38:19.060 The other aspect is, okay, so Deltona is one of 1:38:19.080 --> 1:38:22.130 those municipalities we're talking about that will lose, that is 100% 1:38:22.130 --> 1:38:24.730 driven by property tax revenue, right? It provides everything that 1:38:24.750 --> 1:38:27.170 Deltona has. And if you do have to go to 1:38:27.210 --> 1:38:29.250 the state, the state still has to come up with 1:38:29.270 --> 1:38:31.550 that money somewhere. All right. That money is now gone. 1:38:31.610 --> 1:38:34.330 That property tax money is gone. Where is the state 1:38:34.390 --> 1:38:36.830 going to provide that grant money they're talking about? Where's 1:38:36.850 --> 1:38:37.480 that coming from? 1:38:38.240 --> 1:38:42.439 Well, that is really the multi-billion-dollar question because we think 1:38:42.439 --> 1:38:47.750 411 municipalities, 67 counties, nearly 1,800 special districts, which include 1:38:47.790 --> 1:38:53.250 children's services councils, hospitals, mosquito control, water management, fire districts, 1:38:53.290 --> 1:38:55.610 and the like that are dependent on this. How is 1:38:55.630 --> 1:38:58.010 there going to be a trust fund big enough at 1:38:58.030 --> 1:38:59.870 the state level to be able to make up these 1:38:59.950 --> 1:39:03.030 funding gaps, number one? Number two, the state of Florida, 1:39:03.070 --> 1:39:06.110 from their own economists and their pattern for the last 1:39:06.170 --> 1:39:10.100 two legislative sessions, are preparing for a budget deficit over 1:39:10.120 --> 1:39:12.860 the next three years where they're going to have to 1:39:12.880 --> 1:39:15.040 look at their own budget and see what they can 1:39:15.080 --> 1:39:18.020 afford to provide in terms of services. So that's really 1:39:18.060 --> 1:39:20.860 a conundrum. I think that was one of the reasons 1:39:20.960 --> 1:39:24.330 why this mysterious trust fund that was originally talked about 1:39:24.470 --> 1:39:27.810 early on in this process was removed from this ballot language. 1:39:28.189 --> 1:39:31.769 There's no guarantee. There's no soft padding here, folks. This 1:39:31.830 --> 1:39:35.030 thing hits hard like a skateboarder on concrete. It's going 1:39:35.050 --> 1:39:38.070 to be a problem for folks that come to Tallahassee 1:39:38.130 --> 1:39:42.370 and buying for very limited resources. So what's that alternative, right? 1:39:42.470 --> 1:39:44.270 That means cities are going to have to look at 1:39:44.439 --> 1:39:47.340 other ways to come up with funds or they're going 1:39:47.360 --> 1:39:49.820 to have to look at the services that they provide 1:39:49.920 --> 1:39:53.500 and make adjustments accordingly. We've said all along, this is 1:39:53.580 --> 1:39:57.140 not necessarily a tax cut. This is a tax shift. 1:39:57.689 --> 1:39:57.950 Yes. 1:39:58.150 --> 1:40:01.020 It's a shift. And people say, oh, no, you're making 1:40:01.060 --> 1:40:01.400 that up. 1:40:01.760 --> 1:40:01.880 No. 1:40:01.920 --> 1:40:05.080 Do you pay a fire special assessment fee today? If 1:40:05.120 --> 1:40:07.479 you do, that fee is likely to go up because 1:40:07.540 --> 1:40:10.140 I guarantee you there's some property tax subsidies that are 1:40:10.180 --> 1:40:14.240 going in to help fund things like emergency medical services 1:40:14.320 --> 1:40:17.430 in the fire department. Because guess what? Fire special assessments 1:40:17.490 --> 1:40:22.110 don't pay for EMS. They don't pay for EMS. If 1:40:22.130 --> 1:40:25.350 you think about things like your parks and recreation leagues, 1:40:25.990 --> 1:40:29.500 I've got three kids that play Parks and Recreation athletic leagues, right? 1:40:29.520 --> 1:40:32.700 I got one in soccer. I pay $ 400 a season. 1:40:32.880 --> 1:40:35.020 There's two seasons in a year for that young man 1:40:35.360 --> 1:40:37.740 to play in that soccer league. And I know there's 1:40:37.780 --> 1:40:40.340 a property tax subsidy because we're not covering the cost 1:40:40.380 --> 1:40:43.000 of maintenance of the field, the lights, the referees, all 1:40:43.020 --> 1:40:45.900 of that stuff within that registration. That's basically the shirt, 1:40:45.979 --> 1:40:50.320 the coaches, the trainers, and the program itself. Hey, That 1:40:50.479 --> 1:40:51.900 fee is going to go up. 1:40:52.600 --> 1:40:55.480 I'm sorry. Again, I'm sorry to interrupt. It's just hard 1:40:55.510 --> 1:40:57.150 to communicate with the Zoom thing. But one of the 1:40:57.170 --> 1:41:00.090 things we talked to Megan Sladek about in Oviedo specifically 1:41:00.130 --> 1:41:02.830 because they have in the Winter Springs area, they have 1:41:02.850 --> 1:41:07.060 this giant Central Winds Park. It's a major area where 1:41:07.080 --> 1:41:09.120 people play Little League baseball and do things. We have 1:41:09.439 --> 1:41:11.860 myriad boat ramps around this area for the St. Johns 1:41:11.880 --> 1:41:13.640 and the lakes and things of that nature. And when 1:41:13.660 --> 1:41:15.380 I'm talking to people about this and look, I would 1:41:15.420 --> 1:41:17.800 benefit from this for you greatly. I would benefit from 1:41:17.820 --> 1:41:19.980 the property tax being gone. Look, it would, it would 1:41:20.020 --> 1:41:21.849 be awesome to not have to pay that. But I 1:41:21.900 --> 1:41:23.660 also understand what that money provides. I said, are you 1:41:23.689 --> 1:41:25.690 ready to pay $ 35 to launch your boat every time? 1:41:26.170 --> 1:41:28.050 Are you ready to pay the 40 bucks to go 1:41:28.070 --> 1:41:30.389 to your own kids, little league team? I mean, because these, 1:41:30.490 --> 1:41:31.750 this is what you're looking at. You're going to look 1:41:31.770 --> 1:41:35.150 at individual a la carte charges for these services, because 1:41:35.229 --> 1:41:37.290 this is what your property taxes pay for. You're not 1:41:37.310 --> 1:41:38.710 gonna be able to just walk onto the field anymore. 1:41:38.930 --> 1:41:41.479 That thing doesn't cut itself. They're going to chain that up. 1:41:41.729 --> 1:41:44.070 The lights are coming down, all of that. They said 1:41:44.090 --> 1:41:45.769 that one of the first things they'll do is start 1:41:45.810 --> 1:41:48.390 tearing out the playgrounds because they won't be able to 1:41:48.410 --> 1:41:51.090 afford the insurance in case somebody falls and hurts themselves 1:41:51.130 --> 1:41:51.729 while they're playing. 1:41:52.570 --> 1:41:52.799 Right. 1:41:52.900 --> 1:41:56.219 You're spot on, Jim. And one other thing that tends 1:41:56.260 --> 1:41:58.800 to resonate when I talk about this, I'm currently in 1:41:58.860 --> 1:42:03.140 what I call the sandwich generation, right? I've got parents 1:42:03.160 --> 1:42:05.300 that are elderly. We're having to help take care of them. 1:42:05.380 --> 1:42:06.460 I've got three teenagers. 1:42:06.560 --> 1:42:06.780 Right. 1:42:07.020 --> 1:42:09.740 So I'm getting pulled in both directions. If we didn't 1:42:09.800 --> 1:42:14.550 have valid, you know, great library service programs, a senior 1:42:14.590 --> 1:42:17.590 services center and things for my parents to go and 1:42:17.630 --> 1:42:19.790 do things during the day to free my time up. 1:42:19.990 --> 1:42:23.290 I have a whole different decision making metric at my 1:42:23.330 --> 1:42:25.269 kitchen table. What am I going to do with mom 1:42:25.310 --> 1:42:27.380 and dad who are still at home and still in 1:42:27.420 --> 1:42:30.160 good health? But for how long? You know, those are 1:42:30.180 --> 1:42:31.820 the types of things that, yeah, it's one thing to 1:42:31.860 --> 1:42:34.040 talk about a la carte fees for services. But what 1:42:34.060 --> 1:42:37.950 if that's not enough? What happens when the library goes 1:42:38.030 --> 1:42:41.630 from seven days a week to four? And as a 1:42:41.670 --> 1:42:44.639 homeschool parent, like I am, you're using that library in 1:42:44.680 --> 1:42:46.760 a variety of different things. Libraries aren't just checking out 1:42:46.800 --> 1:42:49.760 books anymore, folks. It is the internet cafe for folks 1:42:49.780 --> 1:42:53.639 that don't have computers at home. It's classrooms for people 1:42:53.680 --> 1:42:58.019 with school choice. We got to get an up-to-date modeling 1:42:58.280 --> 1:43:03.480 on what are these services that people enjoy and Talking. 1:43:02.520 --> 1:43:04.400 To Charles Chapman from the League of Cities, Deb. 1:43:04.520 --> 1:43:04.780 Yes. 1:43:04.860 --> 1:43:07.640 So, Charles, I wanted to ask more specifically, what are 1:43:07.680 --> 1:43:11.610 the potential impacts on hospitals with that lack of property 1:43:11.670 --> 1:43:12.410 tax support? 1:43:13.550 --> 1:43:17.450 OK, so representing the cities, I don't have hard numbers 1:43:17.530 --> 1:43:19.470 on the hospital side, but I can give you the 1:43:19.550 --> 1:43:21.950 theory of it. So it hopefully will help you make sense. 1:43:22.680 --> 1:43:26.150 One thing we hear constantly is, oh, hospitals will be fine. No, ma'am, 1:43:26.410 --> 1:43:29.729 because if they are funded through a property tax levy 1:43:29.950 --> 1:43:34.769 said differently, they apply a millage rate to the tax 1:43:34.810 --> 1:43:36.769 rule to get their funding. So the biggest one I 1:43:36.810 --> 1:43:39.820 can come up with Jackson Memorial, Miami-Dade, right? One of 1:43:39.840 --> 1:43:43.200 the biggest, best known publicly funded hospitals in the country. 1:43:44.080 --> 1:43:46.670 They're going to get hit with this, too. which means 1:43:46.710 --> 1:43:49.189 they've got to look at other things, such as are 1:43:49.210 --> 1:43:50.970 they able to stay on the cutting edge of research 1:43:51.010 --> 1:43:52.490 and development? Are they going to have to look at 1:43:52.530 --> 1:43:54.990 a different cost center model? Are you going to look 1:43:55.010 --> 1:44:00.849 at insurance premiums go up? There's tier two, tier three, 1:44:00.890 --> 1:44:04.850 tier four type decisions that have not been contemplated within this. 1:44:05.550 --> 1:44:08.710 This was rushed through and not very well studied. There's 1:44:08.890 --> 1:44:12.150 so many extra implications. Once you start walking down this 1:44:12.270 --> 1:44:14.760 road of the ripple effect, That's going to lead us 1:44:14.840 --> 1:44:17.019 into what I'm pointing over the next two years as 1:44:17.220 --> 1:44:21.080 summers of surprises or the what do you mean experience 1:44:21.960 --> 1:44:24.620 in terms of what do you mean that's not available anymore? 1:44:24.680 --> 1:44:26.600 What do you mean you've got to shut down my 1:44:26.640 --> 1:44:28.549 county health department? What do you mean I've got to 1:44:28.590 --> 1:44:32.130 go or consolidate my city because they can't afford to 1:44:32.250 --> 1:44:33.630 operate the same way anymore? 1:44:33.650 --> 1:44:33.729 Yeah. 1:44:34.640 --> 1:44:37.960 Charles, a lot of people, I mean, on a macro 1:44:37.979 --> 1:44:40.519 level will say, yeah, I see it benefits the community. 1:44:40.880 --> 1:44:43.100 And then they look at their assessment. We had a 1:44:43.220 --> 1:44:46.390 person text in. They said, these people could find the 1:44:46.430 --> 1:44:50.510 money from elsewhere. I need a break. I just got 1:44:50.550 --> 1:44:52.170 my tax bill of $ 10, 000 on a $ 300, 000 home. And 1:44:52.189 --> 1:45:00.929 the house, this is absolutely ridiculous. So When that one person, 1:45:01.410 --> 1:45:05.729 you know, all problems come back to the local and 1:45:05.770 --> 1:45:07.750 the wolf they have to feed at the door. If 1:45:07.790 --> 1:45:11.050 they're like, I need this money, how do you break 1:45:11.090 --> 1:45:14.410 through to that person, you know, to serve the greater 1:45:14.450 --> 1:45:15.430 good of their community? 1:45:16.630 --> 1:45:18.590 Well, I think we have to start with nobody likes 1:45:18.610 --> 1:45:21.990 to pay taxes, period. Nobody likes to. I don't like 1:45:22.020 --> 1:45:24.860 to pay taxes, and I work advocating for local governments. 1:45:24.920 --> 1:45:26.840 I haven't met an elected official out there that loves 1:45:26.860 --> 1:45:29.170 to pay taxes. So I think we have to start there. 1:45:29.270 --> 1:45:31.410 The second bit is you also have to understand your 1:45:31.450 --> 1:45:34.220 property tax bill and understand that it's not one bill. 1:45:35.160 --> 1:45:38.660 It's five bills, sometimes six bills all rolled into one. 1:45:39.660 --> 1:45:41.960 The third part of that is if you are not 1:45:42.040 --> 1:45:44.520 happy with the tax rate you're paying, I would ask, 1:45:44.700 --> 1:45:47.400 have you gotten involved with your local city council or 1:45:47.420 --> 1:45:50.769 your county government to have the conversation about where's that 1:45:50.820 --> 1:45:53.930 money going? What are those services that I get for 1:45:53.970 --> 1:45:58.050 my money? And then see what is that opportunity for 1:45:58.090 --> 1:46:01.010 you to get right size. There's a ton of other 1:46:01.070 --> 1:46:03.410 opportunities to bring that tax bill down. There's the value 1:46:03.430 --> 1:46:06.610 adjustment board. You can challenge the valuation of your property. 1:46:06.970 --> 1:46:09.790 There's a lot of things. Nobody is saying that property 1:46:09.850 --> 1:46:12.590 taxes are not high in this state. They are. We've 1:46:12.610 --> 1:46:14.610 had a real estate boom for the last five years 1:46:14.689 --> 1:46:17.340 post COVID. We're starting to see the real estate market 1:46:17.380 --> 1:46:20.070 begin to levy out. It's a function that we've seen 1:46:20.189 --> 1:46:23.100 three or four times in the last 20 years. The 1:46:23.220 --> 1:46:26.019 market does begin to correct itself. We get that people 1:46:26.090 --> 1:46:28.930 need help now. Affordability is probably the hardest thing to 1:46:28.950 --> 1:46:31.809 define out there because it's highly subjective. What's affordable to 1:46:31.850 --> 1:46:35.610 me is not, say that differently. What's affordable to Jeff 1:46:35.650 --> 1:46:40.330 Bezos is not affordable to me. So that comes into it. 1:46:40.430 --> 1:46:44.900 And anything we're talking about waste, waste is also subjective. Look, 1:46:45.030 --> 1:46:48.439 I don't have any pets, right? I don't necessarily love 1:46:48.479 --> 1:46:50.380 the fact that there's a dog park right down the 1:46:50.420 --> 1:46:52.320 road that I see only maybe three or four people 1:46:52.420 --> 1:46:54.940 using all the time. But those people that use that 1:46:54.979 --> 1:46:58.140 dog park, that's their socialization sphere. That's their time in 1:46:58.160 --> 1:47:01.200 the sunshine. That's a highly valued thing. I may consider 1:47:01.260 --> 1:47:03.320 it as waste, but they may love it as a 1:47:03.360 --> 1:47:04.040 community feature. 1:47:04.180 --> 1:47:06.850 But that evens out everywhere. I mean, you could apply 1:47:06.860 --> 1:47:09.349 that to a number of services provided by any county 1:47:09.390 --> 1:47:12.550 or city that somebody just doesn't use because they're not 1:47:12.630 --> 1:47:15.810 into that particular thing. There are walking trails all around 1:47:15.870 --> 1:47:17.550 Central Florida. I've been on maybe three of them my 1:47:17.590 --> 1:47:19.890 entire life, but I'm not saying everybody else shouldn't have it. 1:47:20.110 --> 1:47:22.689 because I don't go walk on them. I mean, that's 1:47:22.750 --> 1:47:25.110 relatively short-sighted, in my opinion. The one thing I did 1:47:25.140 --> 1:47:27.500 want to ask about this is, when you talk to 1:47:27.540 --> 1:47:31.220 people when the city's around there, what is the mentality 1:47:31.240 --> 1:47:35.350 that the governor has had about this? He introduces this 1:47:35.479 --> 1:47:40.010 as a lame-duck governor. it hits the wall like a 1:47:40.189 --> 1:47:42.689 ton of bricks and then kind of backs off from it. 1:47:42.750 --> 1:47:46.200 Now there doesn't seem to be that same support. What 1:47:46.700 --> 1:47:49.500 is the vibe of that? He's the one who introduced this, 1:47:49.560 --> 1:47:51.200 and now it doesn't seem like he has that same 1:47:51.320 --> 1:47:53.620 fervor for it. Why is that happening? 1:47:54.360 --> 1:47:56.000 I think there's just a lot going on in the 1:47:56.040 --> 1:47:59.160 political sphere right now. And as far as getting into 1:47:59.200 --> 1:48:01.740 the governor, his intentions or otherwise, I'm not willing to 1:48:01.780 --> 1:48:04.180 go down that train too far. But what I will 1:48:04.240 --> 1:48:07.040 say is that all along, since this was introduced in 1:48:07.100 --> 1:48:10.490 February of 25, we've been calling for a full study 1:48:10.530 --> 1:48:13.490 of this to know exactly what you're getting into, know 1:48:13.530 --> 1:48:16.510 what those unintended consequences are going to be. Here we 1:48:16.550 --> 1:48:19.150 are now faced with this real ballot initiative. We're beginning 1:48:19.189 --> 1:48:22.580 to get out and educate and inform the voters. Look, 1:48:22.900 --> 1:48:24.820 cities cannot get out there and tell you to vote 1:48:24.860 --> 1:48:26.940 yes or vote no, but they can tell you what 1:48:26.979 --> 1:48:29.300 the impact of this will be to the services that 1:48:29.340 --> 1:48:31.810 you enjoy on a daily basis that you may not 1:48:31.930 --> 1:48:34.410 even make a connection with. And so I think there's 1:48:34.430 --> 1:48:37.590 a little bit of that realization that's happening statewide, no 1:48:37.610 --> 1:48:41.010 matter who you are. that there's going to be some 1:48:41.130 --> 1:48:43.379 impacts to this. And you know what? The thing that 1:48:43.400 --> 1:48:47.700 I hear most frequently is that, oh, public safety is protected. Well, folks, 1:48:48.780 --> 1:48:52.260 there's no protection in this bill. There's no protection in 1:48:52.300 --> 1:48:55.229 this ballot for public safety. Now, I'm not saying that 1:48:55.240 --> 1:48:58.050 they're going to come after public safety. It's number one 1:48:58.070 --> 1:49:01.689 or number two after you cover insurance and debt obligations, 1:49:02.229 --> 1:49:04.769 and then you find public safety than everything else. But 1:49:04.970 --> 1:49:08.120 some instances in these smaller communities, like you mentioned with Deltona, 1:49:08.660 --> 1:49:11.140 There's not enough money at the end of the day 1:49:11.160 --> 1:49:14.160 that they can keep public safety whole. They're going to 1:49:14.200 --> 1:49:15.320 have to make some adjustments. 1:49:17.320 --> 1:49:21.160 Yeah, Charles, it's part of the trickle-down effect here. Is 1:49:21.229 --> 1:49:24.110 it possible where people would see their own property value 1:49:24.189 --> 1:49:28.970 diminish when they start seeing these services diminish in their communities? 1:49:30.290 --> 1:49:33.230 Well, again, I'm not a real estate expert, so I 1:49:33.270 --> 1:49:35.360 will just say this. If you look up what goes 1:49:35.439 --> 1:49:38.879 into evaluating your home and what makes it marketable to somebody, 1:49:38.900 --> 1:49:41.380 it's usually a couple of key features, right? One, is 1:49:41.420 --> 1:49:44.360 it a safe neighborhood? Two, is it close to a 1:49:44.400 --> 1:49:47.110 fire hydrant and a fire station so that what's called 1:49:47.130 --> 1:49:51.470 the ISO rating, the insurance services rating, which means that 1:49:51.550 --> 1:49:55.290 you've got a reasonable response time whenever you call 911, 1:49:55.290 --> 1:49:58.030 the fire truck's going to be there. If those things 1:49:58.060 --> 1:50:01.099 start getting impact, People are not going to feel safe. 1:50:01.340 --> 1:50:04.360 You're going to have higher property insurance. There's also the 1:50:04.380 --> 1:50:07.080 fact that you have parks that contribute greatly to your 1:50:07.479 --> 1:50:11.429 home value. You have sidewalks. You have well-maintained streets. All 1:50:11.439 --> 1:50:14.790 of those things could start being delayed or just closed 1:50:14.850 --> 1:50:17.309 because you can't afford to maintain those parks up to 1:50:17.350 --> 1:50:19.549 par in the service level the residents expect. 1:50:19.650 --> 1:50:20.510 Go ahead. 1:50:20.890 --> 1:50:21.790 I'm sorry. 1:50:21.910 --> 1:50:24.060 There could be a direct impact to the value of 1:50:24.100 --> 1:50:28.590 your home long-term because those community features... in that community 1:50:28.610 --> 1:50:31.810 you chose to live in are no longer being provided 1:50:31.930 --> 1:50:34.010 at the same level as it was when you purchased 1:50:34.030 --> 1:50:34.370 that home. 1:50:34.550 --> 1:50:36.930 We have a guy that is texting in and he 1:50:36.950 --> 1:50:39.260 says that we're handling this as a one-sided thing. He goes, yeah, 1:50:39.270 --> 1:50:41.860 it's time for pay to play. Pay for the resources 1:50:41.900 --> 1:50:45.540 you use. No taxes! So that would mean this. If 1:50:45.560 --> 1:50:47.700 that gentleman's house catches on fire and he calls the 1:50:47.740 --> 1:50:49.960 fire department, the first question they ask is, can you 1:50:50.020 --> 1:50:51.560 afford the $ 1, 500 or $ 2, 000 or $ 4, 000 for us to 1:50:51.850 --> 1:50:56.250 come out and put out your fire? Or if we 1:50:56.290 --> 1:50:58.150 have somebody lurking around my house and I have to 1:50:58.189 --> 1:50:59.950 call the cops, are the cops going to ask, yeah, 1:50:59.970 --> 1:51:02.430 we'd love to come out, but this is a pay-for-play area, 1:51:02.750 --> 1:51:05.430 so do you have the $ 150 or $ 200 to pay 1:51:05.530 --> 1:51:07.060 us to come out and check out and see if 1:51:07.070 --> 1:51:09.020 there's a bad guy around your house? Is that the 1:51:09.060 --> 1:51:13.689 kind of pay-for-play he's talking about? I'm asking facetiously, but 1:51:13.770 --> 1:51:16.180 it seems like that's what he wants. He goes, no taxes. 1:51:16.220 --> 1:51:18.100 I'll only pay it for when I use it. But 1:51:18.120 --> 1:51:20.840 that's a very interesting concept considering that this is the 1:51:20.860 --> 1:51:22.880 same thing that people bitch about when their insurance hits 1:51:22.900 --> 1:51:24.620 them and goes, yeah, you can't even come in for 1:51:24.660 --> 1:51:27.470 that appointment until you give me $ 200. You've got to 1:51:27.510 --> 1:51:29.710 do that to even get the appointment. And people get 1:51:29.729 --> 1:51:31.710 mad about that, but this is the same scenario, I guess, 1:51:31.729 --> 1:51:34.030 that they're kind of talking about with the pay-per-play thing. Like, 1:51:34.050 --> 1:51:35.230 you know, if your house is burning down, you've got 1:51:35.250 --> 1:51:36.890 to call the fire department. They're like, look, we'd love 1:51:36.910 --> 1:51:37.309 to come help. 1:51:37.330 --> 1:51:37.729 Yeah. 1:51:38.229 --> 1:51:40.670 But unfortunately, you're in a pay-for-play area, and that's going 1:51:40.710 --> 1:51:42.139 to be $ 1, 000. If you don't have that right now, 1:51:42.150 --> 1:51:42.690 we can't come out. 1:51:42.939 --> 1:51:45.800 Charles, any place you can recommend online for people to 1:51:45.840 --> 1:51:51.960 go to see where the cities are projecting? Is there 1:51:52.340 --> 1:51:55.880 one website or area where people can get more information 1:51:56.380 --> 1:51:58.640 on how this will affect the city near them? 1:51:58.660 --> 1:52:03.939 Yeah, absolutely. So if you go to the flcities.com website, 1:52:04.710 --> 1:52:07.269 It's not hard to find. FLCities.com, you go a little 1:52:07.290 --> 1:52:09.309 bit down from the top of the page, you'll see 1:52:09.750 --> 1:52:12.839 property tax resources. You click on that. There's a ton 1:52:12.850 --> 1:52:15.080 of information, a lot of data that's there. There's an 1:52:15.160 --> 1:52:19.660 academic study we did with the public finance institute out 1:52:19.680 --> 1:52:22.620 of Wichita State University in Kansas. You might ask Kansas, 1:52:22.920 --> 1:52:26.800 why Kansas? We wanted something independent from Florida, someone to 1:52:26.840 --> 1:52:29.479 take a different look so they wouldn't be biased. There's 1:52:29.500 --> 1:52:32.790 a lot of strong information there. Plus, I would also 1:52:32.850 --> 1:52:36.290 look at a website called Local Voices United, which is 1:52:36.350 --> 1:52:40.740 geared toward everyday average Joe citizens. And it gives great 1:52:40.780 --> 1:52:44.860 information as far as what property tax impacts will be. 1:52:45.460 --> 1:52:47.300 Those are the two quick ones right off the bat. 1:52:47.900 --> 1:52:51.160 Without giving you all of the legislative office of economic 1:52:51.200 --> 1:52:54.200 and demographic research stuff that people, I mean, I glaze 1:52:54.300 --> 1:52:56.610 over when I start looking at some of these numbers, 1:52:56.670 --> 1:52:59.540 but There's more data than you can shake a stick at. 1:52:59.660 --> 1:53:02.500 It's just getting the time to sit down in front 1:53:02.540 --> 1:53:05.059 of your computer or on your phone and start looking 1:53:05.100 --> 1:53:07.310 this stuff up. But the best thing that they could 1:53:07.370 --> 1:53:10.590 do is if you're really questioning where your property tax 1:53:10.610 --> 1:53:16.110 money is going, call City Hall. go make yourself available 1:53:16.150 --> 1:53:17.610 of this thing. Most city halls are right in the 1:53:17.630 --> 1:53:20.389 middle of town. Take a two hour trip, go down there, 1:53:20.490 --> 1:53:22.769 talk with some folks, figure this thing out for yourself 1:53:22.870 --> 1:53:25.350 and what that decision making metric might look like for 1:53:25.390 --> 1:53:26.250 you at the kitchen table. 1:53:26.350 --> 1:53:26.550 Yeah. 1:53:26.590 --> 1:53:28.110 Charles, we're short on time. We've got to go, but 1:53:28.130 --> 1:53:29.450 I do want to ask you this one last question 1:53:29.470 --> 1:53:31.910 because we've got it. You know, somebody just called in 1:53:31.950 --> 1:53:33.380 and said, Hey, look, are you to have somebody on 1:53:33.410 --> 1:53:36.560 the air that is for this? And can I ask you, 1:53:36.960 --> 1:53:40.800 do you know anybody in your circus or in your 1:53:40.820 --> 1:53:44.280 circumference that That is for this. What is the number 1:53:44.380 --> 1:53:47.220 one argument outside of I'm putting that money back in 1:53:47.260 --> 1:53:49.019 my pocket for this that you've heard? 1:53:50.140 --> 1:53:52.840 Well, you know, we hear this talking point quite frequently 1:53:52.970 --> 1:53:56.310 and it's nationwide. It's nationwide is that you never truly 1:53:56.450 --> 1:53:59.689 own your home as long as you pay property taxes. Right. Well, 1:53:59.710 --> 1:54:01.770 then I would offer that as a counter that you 1:54:01.790 --> 1:54:05.229 never really ever own your car. You never truly own 1:54:05.350 --> 1:54:08.370 your cell phone because you're still paying for those services 1:54:08.410 --> 1:54:11.059 to make those things work and make them special and functional. 1:54:11.930 --> 1:54:14.450 You stop putting gas in your car, you stop paying insurance, 1:54:14.790 --> 1:54:17.710 you stop buying your license tag, all those things. That 1:54:17.890 --> 1:54:19.670 car's not going to be worth anything to you because 1:54:19.729 --> 1:54:21.390 it's going to be operating illegally or it won't have 1:54:21.430 --> 1:54:22.059 any gas to run. 1:54:22.070 --> 1:54:22.950 Right, right. 1:54:23.030 --> 1:54:25.810 Cell phone's the same thing. If you stop paying Verizon, 1:54:25.830 --> 1:54:29.110 AT & T, or T-Mobile, great. You've got a piece 1:54:29.130 --> 1:54:31.130 of technology in your hand, but it's got no service 1:54:31.170 --> 1:54:32.690 that makes it work the way it's supposed to. 1:54:33.690 --> 1:54:35.930 Well, I appreciate your time, buddy. And that website is great. 1:54:35.950 --> 1:54:37.390 A lot of people are asking, where can I see? 1:54:37.770 --> 1:54:39.610 And I think most of these cities, if you go 1:54:39.720 --> 1:54:42.320 to their websites, they have their budgets posted. I think 1:54:42.360 --> 1:54:46.180 that has been a big initiative for the Florida League 1:54:46.200 --> 1:54:47.880 of Cities is to get those budgets out there so 1:54:47.920 --> 1:54:50.240 people can kind of go through them themselves and find 1:54:50.280 --> 1:54:53.330 out where they think waste is happening in their community. 1:54:53.370 --> 1:54:55.610 Then they can go to those commission meetings and say, hey, look, 1:54:56.030 --> 1:54:57.330 I don't like this. I don't like the fact that 1:54:57.370 --> 1:54:59.530 we're We're doing this. Flock cameras is a big thing 1:54:59.590 --> 1:55:01.250 I'm hearing about. Like we should be paying for that 1:55:01.290 --> 1:55:04.610 or should be paying for counties to have two patrol boats. 1:55:04.630 --> 1:55:07.350 They don't feel they need that without really getting into 1:55:07.370 --> 1:55:09.350 the idea of how many people they're serving with that. 1:55:09.650 --> 1:55:12.520 But if you go to most of these municipalities, excuse me, 1:55:12.570 --> 1:55:15.480 municipalities websites, it does have that information there. 1:55:15.520 --> 1:55:16.660 It's fully transparent. 1:55:16.900 --> 1:55:17.380 It has to be. 1:55:17.420 --> 1:55:18.340 It's it's the law. 1:55:19.750 --> 1:55:22.220 Correct. It should be right there within a couple of clicks. 1:55:22.240 --> 1:55:23.800 You can get more information than you ever want to 1:55:23.820 --> 1:55:25.860 know about your local city budget right there on their website. 1:55:26.080 --> 1:55:27.840 Charles, always good talking to you, buddy.

Number one, 1:57:34.410 --> 1:57:37.150 her father paid the doctor that delivered her with a 1:57:37.210 --> 1:57:41.490 bag of cornmeal. Number two, she wrote Jolene and I 1:57:41.520 --> 1:57:45.560 Will Always Love You over one weekend. Number three, she 1:57:45.600 --> 1:57:48.560 was only 13 years old when she played the Grand 1:57:48.600 --> 1:57:51.850 Ole Opry for the first time, and she had three encores. 1:57:52.280 --> 1:57:56.090 Or lastly, she was exactly five feet tall. Which of 1:57:56.110 --> 1:57:56.830 those is a lie? 1:57:59.080 --> 1:57:59.810 Number three. 1:58:00.020 --> 1:58:02.650 No, that's absolutely true. She played the Grand Ole Opry 1:58:02.670 --> 1:58:06.530 at only 13 years old and had three encores when 1:58:06.570 --> 1:58:06.990 she did it. 1:58:07.230 --> 1:58:08.270 Wow, that's amazing. 1:58:08.310 --> 1:58:09.150 Pretty damn amazing. 1:58:09.170 --> 1:58:09.510 I agree 100%. 1:58:10.100 --> 1:58:11.600 One, two, three, or four, Debra? 1:58:11.620 --> 1:58:12.190 Let's go two. 1:58:12.310 --> 1:58:14.570 Two sounds good.

We're talking about Dolly Parton. Which one 1:58:20.610 --> 1:58:22.839 of these is not true? Number one, her father paid 1:58:22.850 --> 1:58:25.720 the doctor that delivered her with a bag of cornmeal. 1:58:25.980 --> 1:58:29.140 Number two, she wrote Jolene and I Will Always Love 1:58:29.180 --> 1:58:32.480 You over one weekend. Or lastly, she was exactly five 1:58:32.520 --> 1:58:33.060 feet tall. 1:58:35.300 --> 1:58:35.940 It's her height. 1:58:36.360 --> 1:58:39.630 She's... I don't believe it's the last one. No, yeah, 1:58:39.650 --> 1:58:41.370 she's only five feet tall. Matter of fact, they make 1:58:41.390 --> 1:58:43.690 a big deal about her being only two inches taller 1:58:43.730 --> 1:58:48.430 than Danny DeVito, who's famously like 4'10, or something like that. Yeah, 1:58:48.470 --> 1:58:52.640 that's absolutely true. All right, Deb, one, two, or four? 1:58:52.840 --> 1:58:53.840 Or one, three, or four? 1:58:54.260 --> 1:58:56.260 I'm confused.

Number one, 1:59:04.310 --> 1:59:06.610 her father paid the doctor that delivered her with a 1:59:06.690 --> 1:59:10.140 bag of cornmeal. Or lastly, she wrote, Jolene, and I 1:59:10.180 --> 1:59:12.040 will always love you over one weekend. 1:59:12.060 --> 1:59:14.760 Let's go with the cornmeal. 1:59:15.060 --> 1:59:19.700 No, that's absolutely true. The only rumor there is it 1:59:19.720 --> 1:59:21.780 could have been a bag of oats or cornmeal. Most 1:59:21.820 --> 1:59:24.300 people believe it was a bag of cornmeal that he 1:59:24.320 --> 1:59:27.350 paid the doctor that delivered her for. And then, of course, lastly, 1:59:27.380 --> 1:59:29.720 we'll have to go to number right here. How about Jason? Jason, 1:59:29.760 --> 1:59:30.360 how you doing, buddy? 1:59:31.240 --> 1:59:31.920 I'm doing great. 1:59:32.260 --> 1:59:33.140 Yeah, man. 1:59:33.160 --> 1:59:34.490 Tell me if this is true or not. She wrote, 1:59:34.590 --> 1:59:37.210 Jolene and I will always love you over one weekend. 1:59:38.190 --> 1:59:39.250 That, sir, is a lie. 1:59:39.310 --> 1:59:40.720 That is a lie. How long do you think it 1:59:40.740 --> 1:59:41.320 took her to write them? 1:59:42.480 --> 1:59:43.140 Less than that. 1:59:43.160 --> 1:59:44.720 She wrote them in one afternoon. 1:59:44.740 --> 1:59:46.140 Oh, wow. 1:59:46.240 --> 1:59:48.580 Two of the biggest hits of her career, she literally 1:59:48.620 --> 1:59:50.480 wrote back-to-back in one afternoon. 1:59:50.500 --> 1:59:51.780 Wow.

A couple other things about Dolly 1:59:56.730 --> 1:59:58.670 before we get to the top of the hour. She 1:59:58.730 --> 2:00:01.790 was one of 12 children. What was her middle name? 2:00:01.810 --> 2:00:05.790 That's a tough one, right? I almost made this the 2:00:05.810 --> 2:00:07.760 question here. Yeah, I mean, there's no way to know this. 2:00:07.800 --> 2:00:09.930 Nobody's ever said it. Her middle name is Rebecca. 2:00:10.430 --> 2:00:10.850 Oh, wow. 2:00:10.890 --> 2:00:12.710 Dolly Rebecca Parton. 2:00:13.350 --> 2:00:13.750 All right. 2:00:14.910 --> 2:00:17.440 How many decades did she win a CMA award in? 2:00:20.120 --> 2:00:21.220 Five. Is the answer. 2:00:21.870 --> 2:00:22.690 Good guess, Jack. 2:00:22.830 --> 2:00:24.630 Five decades in a row she went to CMA. 2:00:24.710 --> 2:00:26.090 I figured from 70 on. 2:00:26.390 --> 2:00:26.730 Yeah. 2:00:27.030 --> 2:00:29.850 And then lastly, she was offered the Presidential Medal of 2:00:29.890 --> 2:00:32.310 Freedom twice and turned it down both times. 2:00:32.670 --> 2:00:33.190 Really? 2:00:33.350 --> 2:00:35.370 She said it was because of scheduling, but people around 2:00:35.410 --> 2:00:37.530 her said that it was her. She did not feel 2:00:37.570 --> 2:00:39.710 she deserved it. She was too humble to take it. 2:00:40.230 --> 2:00:40.610 Oh, wow. 2:00:40.630 --> 2:00:42.870 How about that? That's why we love her. Yeah, yeah. 2:00:42.890 --> 2:00:43.290 All right. 2:00:43.310 --> 2:00:43.410 407-916-1041. 2:00:43.450 --> 2:00:44.100 Text us. 2:00:44.100 --> 2:00:44.170 77031. 2:00:44.150 --> 2:00:47.020 Take a little break. Back in a sec with more 2:00:47.040 --> 2:00:48.200 of the Jim Colbert Show. Stay right there. 2:00:53.560 --> 2:00:55.840 Of course, all the sheriffs want their tax dollars so 2:00:55.880 --> 2:00:59.480 they can spend it on bear cats and boats to 2:00:59.510 --> 2:01:04.910 patrol the beaches and waterways that are so unsafe. Also, 2:01:04.990 --> 2:01:09.290 Volusia County has 8,400 building permits that they haven't kept 2:01:09.390 --> 2:01:15.660 up on and have lost $ 380, 000 in reinspection fees. Yeah, 2:01:15.680 --> 2:01:17.660 let's vote out the taxes, and if it becomes a 2:01:17.680 --> 2:01:19.650 bad idea, we can just vote them back in. 2:01:21.100 --> 2:01:22.120 Constitutional amendment. 2:01:22.140 --> 2:01:24.890 I got a letter in the mail from the tax agency, 2:01:24.900 --> 2:01:29.350 the property tax agency, this week, actually, and it said 2:01:29.410 --> 2:01:33.530 that if that bill goes through, my property taxes have 2:01:33.560 --> 2:01:37.680 dropped to whatever he said, and it's about. 2:01:36.640 --> 2:01:36.940 $ 300 a year. 2:01:37.040 --> 2:01:39.700 So divide that by 12. Is that worth losing all 2:01:39.740 --> 2:01:40.340 the other stuff? 2:01:41.480 --> 2:01:41.980 I don't think so. 2:01:43.790 --> 2:01:45.650 Yeah, I was saying that use that tax that they 2:01:45.690 --> 2:01:48.610 collected from the flight, every flight that comes into Florida, 2:01:48.630 --> 2:01:52.050 rent a car that's rented, hotel that's booked, and wherever 2:01:52.090 --> 2:01:54.650 the city or the county comes up short with whatever 2:01:54.710 --> 2:01:57.240 money they collect for property tax, they distribute that to 2:01:57.280 --> 2:01:57.960 that city. 2:01:57.720 --> 2:01:59.540 Or county to help where the shortfall. 2:01:59.860 --> 2:02:02.100 The police and the fire department and all that stuff 2:02:02.140 --> 2:02:05.560 is not going away. Please, guys, y'all stop the fear-mongering. 2:02:05.880 --> 2:02:09.280 Stop it, please. Who's fear-mongering, dude? 2:02:09.480 --> 2:02:12.140 Who's doing that? F-A-F-O. 2:02:12.810 --> 2:02:16.070 Yeah, who is doing that? God, dog, man. 2:02:16.190 --> 2:02:18.880 Charles talked about that, right? The what do you mean stage? 2:02:19.000 --> 2:02:20.080 Yeah, man, I guess. 2:02:20.140 --> 2:02:20.640 I don't know, man. 2:02:20.660 --> 2:02:21.560 I just, I don't know. 2:02:22.000 --> 2:02:24.500 So, one, he said you just put the law, and 2:02:24.620 --> 2:02:27.970 as Deb mentioned, it's a constitutional amendment, so you have 2:02:27.990 --> 2:02:29.010 to get it on the ballot. 2:02:29.110 --> 2:02:29.970 And guess what? 2:02:30.090 --> 2:02:34.090 Our legislature also made it harder for citizens to put 2:02:34.150 --> 2:02:34.640 things down. 2:02:35.560 --> 2:02:38.540 On the ballot, so they would have to do that. 2:02:38.940 --> 2:02:41.020 As for the guy saying use a tourist tax, well, 2:02:41.050 --> 2:02:43.950 that's individual by county, and there are strict rules on 2:02:44.010 --> 2:02:46.230 how to use it, which we've been, you know.. 2:02:46.270 --> 2:02:48.380 Talking to Scott Maxwell about for eight years. 2:02:48.420 --> 2:02:48.680 Yeah. 2:02:50.180 --> 2:02:52.880 And beyond about how they won't use it for anything 2:02:52.900 --> 2:02:54.040 but building more hotels. 2:02:54.620 --> 2:02:59.100 So many armchair experts out there. Nobody reads anything. They 2:02:59.120 --> 2:03:01.250 call in, well, here's the easy solution. You don't even 2:03:01.290 --> 2:03:03.830 understand what the hell's going on, dude. We're trying to 2:03:03.870 --> 2:03:05.410 explain to you. That's why we have these people on 2:03:05.450 --> 2:03:07.610 the air to try to explain exactly what's going to happen. 2:03:07.850 --> 2:03:10.370 Like I've told you a thousand times, everybody in these 2:03:10.450 --> 2:03:13.630 rooms will benefit from their property taxes going away. But 2:03:13.730 --> 2:03:16.270 everybody in these rooms is knowledgeable enough to understand what 2:03:16.290 --> 2:03:17.880 that will cost us as communities. 2:03:18.110 --> 2:03:20.880 It's that simple. It's that simple. I do not have 2:03:20.920 --> 2:03:21.700 a dog in this hunt. 2:03:22.440 --> 2:03:25.220 You just look at the logical information and realize, look, 2:03:25.340 --> 2:03:27.960 this could be really gnarly for a lot of communities. 2:03:28.460 --> 2:03:29.130 He just said it. 2:03:29.160 --> 2:03:30.920 Like a lot of these smaller communities that rely on 2:03:30.940 --> 2:03:33.770 property taxes for all of their money will be consumed 2:03:33.810 --> 2:03:36.530 by other counties, which means your services and the quality 2:03:36.550 --> 2:03:39.610 of them will drop whether you like it or not. 2:03:39.770 --> 2:03:41.210 I don't give a damn what you say on the 2:03:41.350 --> 2:03:45.060 air or what you think. Go read, dog. It's right there. 2:03:47.420 --> 2:03:47.680 Anyway. 2:03:48.010 --> 2:03:48.190 407-916-1041. 2:03:48.370 --> 2:03:52.810 Text us 77031. I hate taxes as well, but I 2:03:52.910 --> 2:03:55.200 understand the mechanism of what they are. Here's what else 2:03:55.220 --> 2:03:57.060 is going to happen, right? So let's say they do 2:03:57.100 --> 2:03:59.760 pass this, and everybody's like, they're going to tax you elsewhere. 2:03:59.960 --> 2:04:02.340 The revenue has to come from somewhere. There is no 2:04:02.400 --> 2:04:04.600 Florida slush fund. You just heard him say it. That 2:04:04.640 --> 2:04:07.090 was dangled like a carrot when this first thing got 2:04:07.120 --> 2:04:09.610 rolled out. There's just going to be some giant billion, 2:04:09.650 --> 2:04:12.710 multi-billion dollar slush fund that if some city fell short, 2:04:12.870 --> 2:04:15.790 they could just ask the state nicely and the state 2:04:15.890 --> 2:04:17.540 will look at it and go, oh yeah, we agree. 2:04:17.820 --> 2:04:20.560 You should deserve this money. Where's that money coming from, buddy? 2:04:21.140 --> 2:04:23.390 You just heard the guy who does this every day 2:04:23.430 --> 2:04:25.750 of his life. Talks to cities around the state. 2:04:25.750 --> 2:04:26.070 400 plus. 2:04:28.750 --> 2:04:30.590 There is no money. There is no slush fund. The 2:04:30.610 --> 2:04:34.220 state isn't producing this out of thin air, dude. The 2:04:34.240 --> 2:04:37.660 money has to come from somewhere. But then it also 2:04:37.720 --> 2:04:39.620 gives Tallahassee the discretion. 2:04:39.780 --> 2:04:40.080 Yes. 2:04:40.180 --> 2:04:43.180 They get to decide whether they want to give you 2:04:43.200 --> 2:04:45.200 the money, whether they think your cause is worthy. 2:04:45.380 --> 2:04:45.680 Oh, yeah. 2:04:45.780 --> 2:04:47.820 Or are you politically aligned with them? 2:04:47.880 --> 2:04:48.100 Yeah. 2:04:48.140 --> 2:04:50.280 By the way, where do you think that gentleman was 2:04:50.310 --> 2:04:51.090 from who called earlier? 2:04:51.400 --> 2:04:52.350 Tallahassee. No, no. 2:04:52.410 --> 2:04:54.130 The text that just came out. The talk that just 2:04:54.150 --> 2:04:55.610 came out. He had an accident, right? 2:04:55.790 --> 2:04:55.890 Yeah. 2:04:55.910 --> 2:04:55.990 Yeah. 2:04:56.470 --> 2:04:58.650 What if the community center that supports those people in 2:04:58.670 --> 2:05:01.910 your community is now shut down? Because that's what's going 2:05:01.930 --> 2:05:04.990 to happen. They're coming to that first. All those community 2:05:05.010 --> 2:05:07.490 centers that you love that support the community, whether it 2:05:07.510 --> 2:05:09.990 be for reading, whether it be for learning, whether it 2:05:10.010 --> 2:05:13.930 be for support, for assistance, that's gone. And that is 2:05:13.970 --> 2:05:19.090 not fear-mongering. That's math. It's big difference. I'm not– it's math. 2:05:19.150 --> 2:05:20.430 It's just simple math. 2:05:20.850 --> 2:05:24.330 So if you live in an apartment, and many people 2:05:24.370 --> 2:05:27.450 do because they're building more and more apartments because people 2:05:27.470 --> 2:05:31.470 can't afford homes. If you live in an apartment and 2:05:31.510 --> 2:05:36.200 you see services dwindle, you're just losing services without any 2:05:36.240 --> 2:05:38.000 of the benefits of the tax break. 2:05:38.160 --> 2:05:41.520 Actually, it's– The renters– Renters, it's going to hit even harder. 2:05:41.740 --> 2:05:45.910 So people who have small businesses– who rent apartments, manufactured 2:05:45.970 --> 2:05:48.110 homes are the also next one on the list because 2:05:48.450 --> 2:05:51.300 they're going to see services reduced, but they're not going 2:05:51.320 --> 2:05:53.360 to get any of the benefits because they own their 2:05:53.380 --> 2:05:55.610 manufactured home, but they lease the land on which it 2:05:55.690 --> 2:05:56.150 sits on. 2:05:56.540 --> 2:05:57.800 So there's whole groups of. 2:05:57.780 --> 2:05:59.900 People in this state that are not going to benefit 2:05:59.940 --> 2:06:01.920 at all, but they're going to see a lot of 2:06:01.960 --> 2:06:05.140 their quality of life actually be reduced. And it's going 2:06:05.160 --> 2:06:07.960 to be very difficult with it being a constitutional amendment 2:06:08.220 --> 2:06:09.460 to actually get it reversed. 2:06:09.520 --> 2:06:12.520 Yeah, and like Jack said, and look, another thing that's very, 2:06:12.540 --> 2:06:16.700 very important, right, if whatever political party is running Tallahassee 2:06:16.720 --> 2:06:19.280 at the time, right, if this goes through, right, let's 2:06:19.300 --> 2:06:22.300 say it's Republicans, Democrats, whomever, you can bet your ass 2:06:22.320 --> 2:06:24.680 that your initiative that you want money for in your city, 2:06:24.740 --> 2:06:29.600 if it doesn't align with Good luck. Good luck. You 2:06:29.640 --> 2:06:33.430 got no shot. And we've seen that everywhere. We've seen 2:06:33.480 --> 2:06:35.750 partisan things like that happen across the board, whether it 2:06:35.770 --> 2:06:36.350 be Democrats or Republicans. 2:06:36.370 --> 2:06:38.090 Well, look at what happened with the Fringe Festival. Yeah, yeah. 2:06:38.110 --> 2:06:40.310 I mean, because the Fringe Festival and the governor was 2:06:40.390 --> 2:06:43.100 unhappy with some of the performances that very next year, 2:06:43.120 --> 2:06:46.240 arts grants across the state were cut. For things that 2:06:46.280 --> 2:06:48.760 had nothing to do with what happened in Orange County. 2:06:48.940 --> 2:06:51.050 And then they selectively gave some back. 2:06:51.060 --> 2:06:53.170 There you go. And if they liked it or didn't 2:06:53.210 --> 2:06:54.550 like it, you got your grant money. 2:06:54.690 --> 2:06:57.190 Sent 10 state troopers down to the Pulse area the 2:06:57.230 --> 2:06:59.290 other day to keep them from painting the crosswalk again. 2:07:00.050 --> 2:07:02.510 An army of state troopers to keep people from chalking 2:07:02.590 --> 2:07:03.470 a crosswalk. 2:07:03.510 --> 2:07:04.930 That they had already approved. 2:07:10.770 --> 2:07:14.760 So you're getting braces, huh? Yeah, right across my eyes. 2:07:15.550 --> 2:07:17.510 That way I can't read anymore. That'd be the best 2:07:17.530 --> 2:07:22.630 thing that ever happened to me. All right, 407-916-1041, text 77031. 2:07:22.630 --> 2:07:25.600 I've been wanting to tell Deb this story because we have– look, 2:07:25.680 --> 2:07:28.700 I'm not reveling. Let me get your music ready. I'm 2:07:28.720 --> 2:07:29.700 not reveling in this. 2:07:29.720 --> 2:07:29.980 Stop it. 2:07:29.980 --> 2:07:31.860 It's not even close to that. I'm not reveling in this, 2:07:31.900 --> 2:07:36.550 but Debra and I have a fascination with Final Destination 2:07:36.610 --> 2:07:37.110 kind of things. 2:07:37.330 --> 2:07:37.590 Yeah. 2:07:37.610 --> 2:07:37.690 Yeah. 2:07:38.310 --> 2:07:40.630 And, again, we don't want any harm to commit to anybody, 2:07:40.990 --> 2:07:42.690 but these are things that have happened. But we use 2:07:42.730 --> 2:07:45.150 it for our entertainment. I'm not wishing this on anybody, 2:07:45.190 --> 2:07:47.590 but we have this thing. And I have one of 2:07:47.630 --> 2:07:49.330 the ones– I've never heard of anything like this. Did 2:07:49.370 --> 2:07:51.210 you hear the story out of Minnesota, the tree trimmer? 2:07:51.610 --> 2:07:51.930 No. 2:07:52.710 --> 2:07:56.820 So this Minnesota tree trimmer was charged in a co-worker's death, 2:07:57.560 --> 2:08:00.770 all right, because here's what was happening. the tree trimmer 2:08:00.810 --> 2:08:03.680 guy was running the crane with the grapple right it's 2:08:03.690 --> 2:08:05.260 got the grapple thing it's got the saw in it 2:08:05.270 --> 2:08:08.200 you guys have seen this on online right it grabs 2:08:08.240 --> 2:08:11.580 the tree wax it turns it sideways and cuts it 2:08:11.660 --> 2:08:15.310 up an amazing machine by the way considering how heavy 2:08:15.350 --> 2:08:17.130 those trees are. And it's pulling trees down like that 2:08:17.150 --> 2:08:19.810 and just handling as if it's a pencil. No big 2:08:19.830 --> 2:08:22.320 deal at all. But do you remember that? Do you 2:08:22.340 --> 2:08:25.260 remember that bit on Saturday Night Live? And I can't 2:08:25.280 --> 2:08:28.280 remember what era it was where the guy was going, 2:08:28.300 --> 2:08:29.570 I'm going to crush your head. 2:08:29.930 --> 2:08:30.070 Yes. 2:08:30.740 --> 2:08:32.540 And I'm going to crush your head. It was far, 2:08:32.640 --> 2:08:34.900 far away, but it made his head look small, and 2:08:34.920 --> 2:08:36.620 he would take his fingers, and he would pinch the head. 2:08:36.740 --> 2:08:39.270 It was from Boys in the Hall. Was it Boys 2:08:39.320 --> 2:08:39.620 in the Hall? 2:08:39.650 --> 2:08:41.080 It was Boys in the Hall used to do it, 2:08:41.150 --> 2:08:44.270 and in the distance, and you put it so your head, 2:08:44.310 --> 2:08:45.990 like I'm looking at your head between my fingers, and 2:08:46.010 --> 2:08:46.910 I'm clutching your head. 2:08:46.930 --> 2:08:48.490 I clutch, clutch, clutch your head. 2:08:48.530 --> 2:08:48.990 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 2:08:50.150 --> 2:08:54.770 Well, apparently, the crane operator was going to pull this 2:08:55.270 --> 2:08:58.850 joke because the worker that was on the ground said, 2:08:59.310 --> 2:09:02.090 was working and the sun was casting a shadow or 2:09:02.110 --> 2:09:05.190 something like that, right? And he thought he was doing 2:09:05.210 --> 2:09:07.910 it to the shadow, but I guess in the light 2:09:07.980 --> 2:09:10.820 that he was in, he couldn't tell, and he actually 2:09:10.900 --> 2:09:14.360 did it to the guy. And he took the grapple 2:09:14.440 --> 2:09:16.260 and did the, I'm going to pinch your head thing, 2:09:16.280 --> 2:09:19.520 but he actually did it on the dude. He said 2:09:20.000 --> 2:09:22.420 he and the victim were blanking around and saw that 2:09:22.460 --> 2:09:24.700 the sunlight was casting shadows of both the grapple and 2:09:24.720 --> 2:09:27.690 the victim on the street. While looking at the shadows, 2:09:27.790 --> 2:09:30.630 he allegedly maneuvered the grapple so that its shadow appeared 2:09:30.670 --> 2:09:33.530 to grab Lynch's shadow. However, he didn't realize, but the 2:09:33.570 --> 2:09:36.630 grapple itself was grabbing him. He thought it was the 2:09:36.670 --> 2:09:39.020 shadow of the grapple, but it was not the shadow 2:09:39.060 --> 2:09:40.780 at all. It was the actual grapple. 2:09:40.900 --> 2:09:41.240 Bruh. 2:09:43.080 --> 2:09:44.300 He gets charged with secondary murder. 2:09:44.320 --> 2:09:45.860 By the way, or manslaughter. Aye, aye, aye. 2:09:47.560 --> 2:09:47.900 Yeah. 2:09:49.760 --> 2:09:50.890 Yeah, that's gonna.. 2:09:52.770 --> 2:09:55.230 That's right up there with the South Carolina story from 2:09:55.270 --> 2:09:55.730 last week. 2:09:56.230 --> 2:09:56.820 Which was that one? 2:09:57.490 --> 2:10:00.370 A man on his first day on the job as 2:10:00.610 --> 2:10:01.810 a sanitation worker. 2:10:01.970 --> 2:10:02.690 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. 2:10:02.970 --> 2:10:05.770 Riding the back of the sanitation truck. 2:10:05.950 --> 2:10:06.350 Okay. 2:10:06.430 --> 2:10:09.690 When he falls off, first day on the job, hits 2:10:09.730 --> 2:10:11.310 his head, dies a few hours later. 2:10:11.710 --> 2:10:13.410 His father was driving. 2:10:14.450 --> 2:10:14.610 Oh. 2:10:14.690 --> 2:10:15.530 The garbage truck. 2:10:15.630 --> 2:10:16.190 It's just. 2:10:16.270 --> 2:10:16.720 Crazy. 2:10:18.030 --> 2:10:19.780 And again, it was just a workplace joke. 2:10:19.800 --> 2:10:22.080 There was nothing even, oh, and now this guy's going 2:10:22.100 --> 2:10:23.880 to face second degree murder and have to go to 2:10:24.000 --> 2:10:24.880 court for this. 2:10:24.980 --> 2:10:25.340 Yeah, yeah. 2:10:26.090 --> 2:10:28.180 Kids in the hall.

I have to look that up. 2:10:55.230 --> 2:10:55.810 It's Canadian. 2:10:55.990 --> 2:10:56.770 Yeah, there's another. 2:10:56.850 --> 2:10:57.350 Oh, okay. 2:10:57.410 --> 2:10:59.860 A guy named Kevin McDonald, I believe, that did some 2:10:59.880 --> 2:11:01.840 stuff as well, but it was Canadian for sure. Yeah, 2:11:01.860 --> 2:11:03.300 you know, Canada, our enemy now. 2:11:03.680 --> 2:11:04.760 Right. 2:11:04.880 --> 2:11:06.360 You mean Lake America? 2:11:07.020 --> 2:11:07.580 Our foe. 2:11:07.980 --> 2:11:08.560 Yeah, yeah. 2:11:08.680 --> 2:11:10.280 No more Lake Ontario. 2:11:10.380 --> 2:11:11.360 Yeah, brutal. 2:11:11.440 --> 2:11:13.980 By the way, super funny stuff. If you haven't seen that, 2:11:14.100 --> 2:11:17.590 one of the greatest sketches of all time. is a 2:11:17.650 --> 2:11:20.770 Kids in the Halls sketch where it was like middle 2:11:20.810 --> 2:11:24.050 school kids, and it turned out one of them was 2:11:24.910 --> 2:11:27.150 burdened with a gigantic. 2:11:28.340 --> 2:11:28.600 That. 2:11:28.660 --> 2:11:29.000 Nose? 2:11:30.000 --> 2:11:32.940 Not nose. But the thing that made it so funny 2:11:33.080 --> 2:11:35.820 is they made it like a documentary, like they were 2:11:35.840 --> 2:11:39.020 following him around, and they had to pixelate it out everywhere, 2:11:39.100 --> 2:11:41.700 so he'd be on the swing, and he'd be swinging, 2:11:41.720 --> 2:11:43.060 and the thing would hit the dude in the face. 2:11:43.240 --> 2:11:43.500 Ha ha! 2:11:45.040 --> 2:11:48.890 It was amazing, like one of the most amazing things.

Oh, really? 2:14:32.650 --> 2:14:33.010 And it was. 2:14:33.030 --> 2:14:37.190 Probably two, right? They were huge. 2:14:37.330 --> 2:14:39.890 That's correct. They were huge. I mean, back then they 2:14:39.910 --> 2:14:43.920 had the big– they pushed them onto your face terribly. Oh, yeah, yeah. 2:14:44.120 --> 2:14:46.080 And so I don't know if you've noticed this, but 2:14:46.180 --> 2:14:47.840 I am not in middle school. 2:14:47.860 --> 2:14:47.920 No? 2:14:47.980 --> 2:14:48.100 No. 2:14:48.780 --> 2:14:52.330 No, I'm not, Scott. I just graduated from middle school 2:14:52.350 --> 2:14:52.870 just the other day. 2:14:52.930 --> 2:14:56.310 Yeah, yeah. Well, I remember distinctly eating corn on the 2:14:56.350 --> 2:14:58.860 cob and what a fiasco that was. You know, and 2:14:58.880 --> 2:15:00.790 I was a kid, so I didn't. I pay attention. 2:15:00.810 --> 2:15:02.430 I walk around with corn coming out of my face. 2:15:03.310 --> 2:15:04.170 Oh, the ladies. 2:15:04.210 --> 2:15:04.510 Yeah. 2:15:04.830 --> 2:15:06.930 That's how I get all the chicks. Yeah. 2:15:06.950 --> 2:15:10.730 Scott Brown joins us from Edgewater Family Wealth at edgewaterfamilywealth.com. 2:15:10.990 --> 2:15:13.900 In town almost 40 years as a fiduciary, making sure 2:15:13.910 --> 2:15:16.180 that your money lasts as long as you do, maybe 2:15:16.200 --> 2:15:18.220 even a little bit longer, making sure your portfolio is 2:15:18.340 --> 2:15:20.680 earning the way it's supposed to, and just giving good, 2:15:20.760 --> 2:15:22.980 solid advice on your finances as you get a little 2:15:23.080 --> 2:15:24.660 older in life, how you can save money, how you 2:15:24.680 --> 2:15:26.700 can make that compound, and how you can take that 2:15:26.760 --> 2:15:28.600 money and make sure you have a good life after 2:15:28.620 --> 2:15:29.320 you stop working. 2:15:29.660 --> 2:15:33.240 Yeah, the idea is not– I thought about this coming 2:15:33.280 --> 2:15:35.620 over here. I brought something with me on the habits 2:15:35.660 --> 2:15:37.870 of millionaires. And I really– I almost kind of hate 2:15:37.930 --> 2:15:40.730 saying that these days because people take it so literally 2:15:40.750 --> 2:15:42.950 and they get so caught up in, well, I have 2:15:42.970 --> 2:15:44.890 to have a million dollars or I have to have 2:15:44.930 --> 2:15:47.410 two million dollars. And I can tell you that I 2:15:47.450 --> 2:15:49.330 have several clients that I've had for 30 or 40 2:15:49.330 --> 2:15:53.780 years living– on their social security, maybe they have maybe 2:15:53.880 --> 2:15:59.000 one other small source of income, and $ 300, 000 or $ 400, 000. 2:15:58.120 --> 2:16:01.440 And they make it work. They're not going on a 2:16:01.600 --> 2:16:04.980 world cruise every year, but they're not doing nothing either. 2:16:05.020 --> 2:16:06.940 They play their round or two of golf every week. 2:16:06.960 --> 2:16:09.600 They have their poker night or whatever it is. They 2:16:09.640 --> 2:16:12.860 take the RV up to northern Georgia, wherever their place is. 2:16:13.380 --> 2:16:17.260 And so one of the things I try to get 2:16:17.280 --> 2:16:19.910 across in this show is everybody– I mean, I guess 2:16:19.950 --> 2:16:22.510 it's cliche to say everybody's situation is different, but everybody's 2:16:22.530 --> 2:16:26.600 situation is different. It is. I'm thinking of a client 2:16:26.610 --> 2:16:29.140 off the top of my head. She's about my age, 2:16:29.160 --> 2:16:33.629 so she's 62. She just turned 62, actually. And she 2:16:33.690 --> 2:16:37.170 works locally, and she makes probably about $ 70, 000, $ 75, 000 a year. 2:16:37.490 --> 2:16:43.119 She's got about $ 400, 000, $ 450, 000 saved. With her Social Security 2:16:43.140 --> 2:16:46.960 and the income that that $ 450, 000 throws off, she's literally 2:16:47.000 --> 2:16:49.360 going to make the same income plus a little bit 2:16:49.879 --> 2:16:52.160 when she retires. And you think, well, that's not a 2:16:52.200 --> 2:16:53.560 million dollars. No, is it? 2:16:53.629 --> 2:16:53.750 No. 2:16:55.590 --> 2:16:57.129 The point I want to make is that I think 2:16:57.209 --> 2:17:00.580 people get down on themselves. They kind of give up 2:17:00.640 --> 2:17:02.840 or they get frustrated or they hear, I need a 2:17:02.879 --> 2:17:04.260 million or I need two million, and then they just 2:17:04.300 --> 2:17:05.080 kind of want to quit. 2:17:05.220 --> 2:17:07.480 Yeah, they think it's too late, Scott. That's the thing 2:17:07.540 --> 2:17:09.720 I hear more than ever. I mean, on this texting service, like, oh, 2:17:09.760 --> 2:17:13.040 it's too late. I'm already 45 years old. I'm already 30. Oh, stop. 2:17:13.100 --> 2:17:14.410 Yeah, yeah. 45? 2:17:14.410 --> 2:17:16.449 You don't retire until you're like 67, man. You still 2:17:16.470 --> 2:17:19.510 have 20-plus years of savings. Well, and the other thing 2:17:19.530 --> 2:17:21.410 to keep in mind is we're kind of living in 2:17:21.450 --> 2:17:24.050 a different era. You know, back in the industrial age 2:17:24.090 --> 2:17:26.369 when people wore their bodies out or they were farmers 2:17:26.450 --> 2:17:28.490 or they were doing some really hard stuff, building cars 2:17:28.530 --> 2:17:30.349 by hand or whatever it was. Yeah, from 10 years old. 2:17:30.430 --> 2:17:34.250 Yeah, for sure. Their bodies gave out at 50 or 55. 2:17:34.250 --> 2:17:37.290 It made sense to retire at 65. Most of us 2:17:37.370 --> 2:17:41.369 are not doing back-breaking work anymore in the outside, which 2:17:41.430 --> 2:17:43.750 allows us to work longer. You know, I have plenty 2:17:43.770 --> 2:17:47.200 of clients who... either by choice or somewhat through necessity, 2:17:47.300 --> 2:17:49.970 might work part-time. They might work. I had lunch with 2:17:50.060 --> 2:17:53.720 a guy today. He's a former engineer for a surveying company. 2:17:54.100 --> 2:17:56.720 He works five hours a week, I'm sorry, five to 2:17:56.760 --> 2:17:57.860 ten hours a month, and he makes $ 15, 000, $ 20, 000, $ 25, 000 2:17:57.680 --> 2:18:05.220 a year. That supplements his Social Security performance. plus the 2:18:05.240 --> 2:18:07.860 savings from his 401k. So the other thing I think 2:18:07.920 --> 2:18:09.750 people need to get past is that I got to 2:18:09.780 --> 2:18:12.869 retire at 65. You don't got to retire at 65. 2:18:12.870 --> 2:18:15.250 In fact, I think that's somewhat outdated since people are 2:18:15.290 --> 2:18:16.769 living well into their mid-age. 2:18:16.830 --> 2:18:19.010 Sure thing, man. I mean, I think that really that's 2:18:19.050 --> 2:18:22.010 when you, and I think once you get to that 61, 2:18:21.990 --> 2:18:24.350 62-year-old range, when you're like, you know, when you're in 2:18:24.370 --> 2:18:26.490 that age, you're like, okay, well, I can see it 2:18:26.550 --> 2:18:29.430 from here. That's when you start kind of thinking about, well, 2:18:29.470 --> 2:18:31.170 what's the plan I have? Because I think one of 2:18:31.190 --> 2:18:33.270 the most prolific things or profound things you've said to 2:18:33.330 --> 2:18:38.260 me since we've been doing this segment together is the 2:18:38.420 --> 2:18:42.500 idea of retiring from something instead of retiring to something. 2:18:42.700 --> 2:18:44.040 I was just talking to a gentleman the other day 2:18:44.080 --> 2:18:48.420 who's a workaholic. Admittedly so. Came out of working for 2:18:48.459 --> 2:18:51.959 a massive business for years. Now just opened a business 2:18:51.980 --> 2:18:54.119 that's a franchise, but he's doing very well with it. 2:18:54.500 --> 2:18:56.000 and we were having dinner, and I was like, what 2:18:56.120 --> 2:18:58.080 do you guys do for vacations? Where do you go 2:18:58.120 --> 2:19:00.260 and stuff? And he just kind of blank stared at me. 2:19:00.670 --> 2:19:03.330 And this guy's in his early 60s, and I'm like, what, dude? 2:19:03.350 --> 2:19:05.530 He goes, yeah, yeah, I haven't really thought about that. 2:19:05.570 --> 2:19:08.170 I work all the time. I'm like, man, you got 2:19:08.190 --> 2:19:09.410 to figure that out because, I. 2:19:09.410 --> 2:19:12.800 Mean, You can actually– and as you age, you get 2:19:12.850 --> 2:19:15.940 in your 60s or whatever, there's a little bit of 2:19:15.980 --> 2:19:19.959 a vacuum of workers below that age group. And wherever 2:19:20.000 --> 2:19:22.619 you're at, if you're a nurse or you're a physician's 2:19:22.660 --> 2:19:25.680 assistant or you're a paralegal or whatever it is, there's 2:19:25.720 --> 2:19:28.250 probably opportunity at that company because a lot of times 2:19:28.260 --> 2:19:31.130 you can subcontract back. Here's an idea. You can subcontract 2:19:31.150 --> 2:19:34.250 back in your 60s. Companies love that. My mother-in-law does it. 2:19:34.310 --> 2:19:36.430 They love it because they don't have to pay for benefits. 2:19:36.450 --> 2:19:37.029 That's right. 2:19:37.090 --> 2:19:38.930 So when you get to Medicare age, you go on 2:19:38.950 --> 2:19:41.240 to Medicare and you say, just give me a 1099 2:19:41.240 --> 2:19:42.920 for the 20 grand a year for working a few 2:19:42.959 --> 2:19:46.140 hours a week. Companies love that. 2:19:46.280 --> 2:19:48.620 My mother-in-law worked for this company for a year. She 2:19:48.640 --> 2:19:51.199 was a payroll specialist and one of their finance managers. 2:19:51.950 --> 2:19:55.230 She retired, and they kept her on, and she works 2:19:55.250 --> 2:19:57.110 like five hours a week. They have access to her 2:19:57.129 --> 2:19:59.080 a couple hours a day in the mornings when she 2:19:59.090 --> 2:20:01.260 gets up and has her coffee. She settles any problems 2:20:01.280 --> 2:20:03.120 they have and logs off. By 9 o'clock, she's not 2:20:03.160 --> 2:20:06.380 doing anything, keeps her in the game, makes a little 2:20:06.400 --> 2:20:09.720 bit of extra money, and still doesn't burden her with 2:20:09.780 --> 2:20:10.520 work down the road. 2:20:10.830 --> 2:20:12.699 Yeah, again, I mean, not to beat a dead horse, 2:20:12.730 --> 2:20:15.690 but I think there's a lot of dogma surrounding retirement 2:20:15.709 --> 2:20:18.150 and what it should look like, what it should feel like. 2:20:18.230 --> 2:20:20.709 But you can, in your early 60s, you can already, 2:20:20.910 --> 2:20:22.830 you know, if you have enough vacation time trying to 2:20:22.870 --> 2:20:24.930 figure out what you like to do in your free time. 2:20:24.950 --> 2:20:27.330 And I'll tell you flat out, doing nothing ain't all 2:20:27.370 --> 2:20:28.850 it's cracked up to be. Yeah, it's not. I've seen 2:20:28.890 --> 2:20:32.310 a lot of people retire due to doing, I'm going 2:20:32.330 --> 2:20:33.810 to sit in the easy chair, Scott, and I'm going 2:20:33.830 --> 2:20:35.650 to watch television, I'm going to read a book, and 2:20:35.670 --> 2:20:36.490 I'm going to play some golf. 2:20:36.610 --> 2:20:38.870 Go crazy a week later. Those people go insane. 2:20:38.910 --> 2:20:39.010 Yeah. 2:20:39.590 --> 2:20:42.130 Like you just really need, as you said, you need 2:20:42.150 --> 2:20:44.810 to retire not from something but to something. And the 2:20:44.850 --> 2:20:46.920 reality is you could kind of do both. You could 2:20:46.950 --> 2:20:50.420 kind of keep your work life active, keep your brain active. 2:20:50.440 --> 2:20:52.540 And that's another thing we have. I can tell you 2:20:52.700 --> 2:20:56.619 based on what I do that dementia is a real thing. 2:20:56.760 --> 2:20:59.420 And I'm sure keeping your brain active is something most 2:20:59.440 --> 2:21:00.340 people are going to want. 2:21:00.360 --> 2:21:02.680 Yeah, 100%. Let's get to it today. First thing you 2:21:02.730 --> 2:21:06.090 say is dementia. Debt with an exclamation point. Yeah, we 2:21:06.129 --> 2:21:08.010 got some of that, don't we, in this country? Yeah, 2:21:08.070 --> 2:21:10.390 we have about $ 40 trillion of it. You know what's 2:21:10.410 --> 2:21:13.010 hilarious to me? Is it $ 2 billion a month. 2:21:12.850 --> 2:21:16.890 In interest or something like that? It's over a trillion 2:21:16.910 --> 2:21:19.910 a year, so whatever that equates out to be. It's 2:21:19.990 --> 2:21:24.480 now $ 0. 14 on every tax dollar collected goes to pay. 2:21:24.520 --> 2:21:24.720 Yeah, yeah. 2:21:25.160 --> 2:21:29.560 Not the debt, but the interest on the debt. Only 2:21:29.620 --> 2:21:34.140 behind defense and Social Security, it's the third largest item 2:21:34.260 --> 2:21:37.180 on the balance sheet. But what's funny to me is 2:21:37.480 --> 2:21:40.140 this last week after we went over $ 40 trillion, I 2:21:40.220 --> 2:21:44.360 noticed everybody suddenly aware of the debt. Like $ 38, $ 37, 2:21:44.260 --> 2:21:46.560 it's not a round number. 2:21:46.700 --> 2:21:49.480 It's the same thing with gas. At $ 399, you're like, three. 2:21:49.540 --> 2:21:51.320 It goes to $ 401, you're like, oh, my God. 2:21:51.720 --> 2:21:54.860 The same thing with the Powerball. I'm not going to play. 2:21:54.920 --> 2:21:56.080 It's only $ 100 million. 2:21:56.490 --> 2:21:57.530 Who can get by on that? 2:21:57.830 --> 2:22:00.370 But it's so funny to me how these round numbers 2:22:00.410 --> 2:22:04.330 get people's attention. Every senator, every congressperson is like, oh, 2:22:04.390 --> 2:22:06.410 my God, 40. Where were you at 37? 2:22:06.390 --> 2:22:08.070 You were adding to it. 2:22:08.050 --> 2:22:12.990 37, too. You were voting on legislation that drove it up. Yeah, 2:22:13.050 --> 2:22:15.310 I mean, come on. I just find that so bizarre. 2:22:15.450 --> 2:22:18.210 It's baffling, and it's so human. It's so human nature 2:22:18.250 --> 2:22:20.509 to attach yourself to a number like that. But yeah, 2:22:20.560 --> 2:22:24.180 right now, I laugh because I think I remember the 2:22:24.560 --> 2:22:27.600 days when we used to laugh at Greece and France 2:22:28.000 --> 2:22:29.920 and all these countries in Europe that were up to 2:22:29.959 --> 2:22:30.580 their eyeballs. 2:22:30.600 --> 2:22:31.280 Insolvent almost. 2:22:31.379 --> 2:22:31.680 Oh, yeah. 2:22:31.760 --> 2:22:35.230 And boy, did we feel high and mighty back then. Yeah, 2:22:35.250 --> 2:22:37.709 we ain't feeling so because we are literally one peg 2:22:37.750 --> 2:22:41.830 behind Greece. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, for sure. We're at 125% 2:22:41.830 --> 2:22:45.310 of our gross domestic product, which, P.S., dropped 20%. 2:22:45.310 --> 2:22:46.850 Two quarters in a row. Absolutely. 2:22:47.150 --> 2:22:49.930 So not only do we have high interest rates on 2:22:49.950 --> 2:22:52.709 the treasuries and we have this over a trillion dollars 2:22:52.750 --> 2:22:55.270 in debt to service, but we also have a GDP 2:22:55.310 --> 2:22:58.080 that's starting to move backwards a little bit. So these 2:22:58.120 --> 2:23:00.380 things are not wonderful. So next time you vote, you 2:23:00.420 --> 2:23:02.920 might want to ask, hey, man or lady, where are 2:23:02.940 --> 2:23:04.560 you on this debt issue? 2:23:04.580 --> 2:23:07.539 This might be a good question to ask. uh, habits 2:23:07.580 --> 2:23:09.390 of the wealthy. I know that, uh, you kind of 2:23:09.490 --> 2:23:12.550 hit on that a second ago, but you know, um, I, 2:23:12.690 --> 2:23:14.990 do you think the word wealthy is a word that's 2:23:15.010 --> 2:23:17.810 been like kind of demonized, uh, with people like they 2:23:17.950 --> 2:23:21.420 automatically think that wealthy people, uh, just, you know, have 2:23:21.459 --> 2:23:24.820 gotten it through greed or inheritance, or they, they believe 2:23:24.840 --> 2:23:27.100 that there's a mentality there. And you've said this a 2:23:27.120 --> 2:23:29.140 hundred thousand times, and I will tell you straight up 2:23:29.300 --> 2:23:34.449 every person I know that has any wealth of note, 2:23:35.110 --> 2:23:37.349 you could never tell. I mean, you could never look 2:23:37.370 --> 2:23:38.970 at what they drive. You could never look at what 2:23:38.990 --> 2:23:41.170 they live. You could never look at their watch. You 2:23:41.190 --> 2:23:43.770 could never look at what they wear. And guess ever 2:23:44.110 --> 2:23:45.910 that these people even have $ 20, much less $ 3 or 2:23:45.910 --> 2:23:47.490 $ 4 million. That's why they got it. 2:23:47.629 --> 2:23:48.129 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 2:23:49.640 --> 2:23:53.020 Why can't people get past that misconception of that and 2:23:53.040 --> 2:23:55.620 just kind of understand that wealth is just like putting 2:23:55.640 --> 2:23:58.800 it in first gear, letting the clutch off, and then 2:23:58.860 --> 2:24:00.860 not touching the bulldozer for the rest of your life 2:24:00.940 --> 2:24:04.199 and being consistent? Why is that such a hard idea 2:24:04.230 --> 2:24:06.570 for people to get? It took me a while to 2:24:06.610 --> 2:24:07.189 understand that. 2:24:07.840 --> 2:24:10.670 Yeah, well, and most young people struggle with that. They 2:24:10.700 --> 2:24:13.510 want instant gratification. They want to be rock stars. I 2:24:13.550 --> 2:24:17.230 know I did, or athletes, or whatever it is. And 2:24:17.270 --> 2:24:20.590 that seems glamorous and fun, and especially in this day 2:24:20.610 --> 2:24:23.670 and age with social media getting into people's heads. But yeah, 2:24:23.930 --> 2:24:25.879 slow and steady does. I know it's old and tired 2:24:25.900 --> 2:24:27.480 and nobody wants to hear it, but slow and steady 2:24:27.520 --> 2:24:30.320 does win the race. And the term rich is the 2:24:30.360 --> 2:24:33.680 term I always think about. It's not liking because it 2:24:33.800 --> 2:24:36.900 just conjures up images of the Monopoly guy or something. 2:24:37.820 --> 2:24:41.960 I don't think that's fair. I think people who spend 2:24:42.020 --> 2:24:44.740 money carelessly, drive Ferraris and do a bunch of stuff 2:24:44.780 --> 2:24:47.420 like that, and you see it on TikTok or whatever 2:24:47.440 --> 2:24:49.340 it is, I consider those people rich. The people I 2:24:49.360 --> 2:24:53.310 consider wealthy are the people that are first-gen money. They 2:24:53.690 --> 2:24:55.950 failed a few times. In fact, if you look at 2:24:56.010 --> 2:24:59.930 studies show that any millionaire has failed at least once 2:25:00.010 --> 2:25:02.709 or twice in a business endeavor. 2:25:03.150 --> 2:25:06.550 And they persevere. Perseverance is the critical term. And learning 2:25:06.570 --> 2:25:08.769 from those mistakes. Yeah, don't repeat them. 2:25:08.870 --> 2:25:10.810 I mean, if you keep doing the same thing over 2:25:10.830 --> 2:25:13.070 and over again, I believe they consider that insanity. So 2:25:13.390 --> 2:25:16.250 the reality is perseverance to me, when I look at 2:25:16.330 --> 2:25:18.769 all the, and I do business with a lot of millionaires, 2:25:18.790 --> 2:25:21.500 they're clients of mine, and I can tell you to 2:25:21.530 --> 2:25:23.500 a person, you wouldn't know it when they drove up. 2:25:23.560 --> 2:25:25.640 You wouldn't be able to tell. I think the most 2:25:25.680 --> 2:25:28.019 driven car, this is dating back to the millionaire next 2:25:28.060 --> 2:25:29.480 door days, but back in the day, it was a 2:25:29.800 --> 2:25:30.939 Ford Taurus or an F-150. 2:25:30.940 --> 2:25:33.170 Wasn't the number one car for millionaires? 2:25:33.180 --> 2:25:33.500 Number one cars. 2:25:33.680 --> 2:25:37.250 Yeah. And not one of those, the average cost of 2:25:37.310 --> 2:25:39.330 a watch for a millionaire, and again, this is going 2:25:39.370 --> 2:25:41.570 back a few years, was nobody had paid over $ 300 2:25:41.510 --> 2:25:43.230 for a watch. Right, right, right. 2:25:43.270 --> 2:25:43.470 Right? 2:25:43.610 --> 2:25:45.650 And most of them lived in the same home. 2:25:45.730 --> 2:25:45.930 Right. 2:25:46.320 --> 2:25:49.279 For 20 or 30 years. Famously with Warren Buffett. Yes, 2:25:49.330 --> 2:25:51.710 Warren Buffett being the classic example. I think Warren's still 2:25:51.730 --> 2:25:54.669 driving the Lincoln Continental. He got in like 82. Exactly. 2:25:55.610 --> 2:25:58.470 Not that he's driving anywhere at 90-something, I hope. But yeah, 2:25:58.530 --> 2:26:01.170 I mean, these are all habits. I actually took down 2:26:01.230 --> 2:26:03.250 a few. Most of them are frugal. The studies show 2:26:03.270 --> 2:26:06.390 that they're frugal. Most of them had mentors. And this 2:26:06.450 --> 2:26:07.879 is something I've said on the show a lot of 2:26:07.920 --> 2:26:11.690 times is, The opportunity to learn has never been greater 2:26:11.730 --> 2:26:13.850 in this country. You can go on LinkedIn or any– 2:26:13.870 --> 2:26:15.390 by the way, follow me on LinkedIn. You can go 2:26:15.470 --> 2:26:19.340 on LinkedIn and you can hear from Mark Cuban. You 2:26:19.360 --> 2:26:22.019 can hear from Richard Branson. You can hear from Elon 2:26:22.060 --> 2:26:24.500 Musk if that's your guy. Scott Galloway, guys like that? 2:26:24.520 --> 2:26:27.100 Scott Galloway. They're all telling you how to do– there's 2:26:27.200 --> 2:26:29.730 so much information available. I tell the young guys in 2:26:29.770 --> 2:26:33.320 my office, now, you know– You know what I know 2:26:33.320 --> 2:26:36.050 30 years before I knew it. 2:26:36.450 --> 2:26:36.590 Right. 2:26:36.610 --> 2:26:38.590 You're so far ahead of the curve. You have so 2:26:38.650 --> 2:26:41.420 much information available to you. I have a nephew who's 2:26:41.480 --> 2:26:44.760 just graduating from college. And, I mean, I'm sending him 2:26:44.820 --> 2:26:48.580 Carnegie's book. I'm sending him Jim Ferris' books. I'm sending him. 2:26:48.780 --> 2:26:52.039 There's so much great information, and it's really on you 2:26:52.120 --> 2:26:53.900 if you're not taking the time to find it out. 2:26:54.040 --> 2:26:55.100 Did you read Tools of Titans? 2:26:55.160 --> 2:26:55.420 I did. 2:26:55.520 --> 2:26:58.010 That's what I sent him. Yeah, yeah. That's the one? 2:26:58.209 --> 2:26:58.429 Yeah. 2:26:58.510 --> 2:27:00.950 Well, Tools of Titans is almost like a reference book. 2:27:01.110 --> 2:27:02.170 That's exactly what it is. 2:27:02.190 --> 2:27:05.830 You have anything from Schwarzenegger to Mark Cuban to Richard Branson. 2:27:07.310 --> 2:27:10.660 Celebrity athletes have told you, Kobe Bryant, those kinds of people. 2:27:10.690 --> 2:27:12.580 And the reason I love that book, and I've only 2:27:12.620 --> 2:27:13.939 read part of it, but the reason I love the 2:27:13.980 --> 2:27:18.840 book is this. It's different perspectives with the same goal. 2:27:19.600 --> 2:27:22.120 It's a business person. It's an athlete. It's someone from 2:27:22.160 --> 2:27:24.200 a different country who came here and didn't have anything. 2:27:24.600 --> 2:27:28.560 And those unique perspectives show you that regardless of your 2:27:28.600 --> 2:27:33.209 beginnings or your surroundings, these things really do apply across 2:27:33.250 --> 2:27:35.189 the board. I thought that was its greatest value to me. 2:27:35.209 --> 2:27:37.850 Yeah, I mean, even like somebody like Arnold Schwarzenegger, if 2:27:37.890 --> 2:27:39.940 you see what he went through to become … who 2:27:40.000 --> 2:27:42.420 he is, I mean, he was told countless times, you 2:27:42.459 --> 2:27:46.539 can't speak English, nobody understands you, you're just a muscle guy, 2:27:46.600 --> 2:27:49.080 this will never work. Well, turns out it did work 2:27:49.420 --> 2:27:51.660 because he refused to take no for an answer. This 2:27:51.700 --> 2:27:53.420 is what I've been trying to tell my nephew. Mark Wahlberg. 2:27:53.680 --> 2:27:57.730 Mark Wahlberg, another classic example. I try to tell my nephew, listen, dude, 2:27:58.190 --> 2:27:59.670 People are going to tell you you can't do it. 2:27:59.830 --> 2:28:01.270 And the reason they're going to tell you that is 2:28:01.310 --> 2:28:03.090 because they know they can't do it or they don't 2:28:03.129 --> 2:28:04.890 feel like they can do it. You just have to 2:28:04.950 --> 2:28:08.349 ignore those people. And like I said, to me, what 2:28:08.390 --> 2:28:10.390 a wonderful time. I know we have other issues in 2:28:10.410 --> 2:28:14.760 this country, but aside from that. This time is like 2:28:14.800 --> 2:28:17.280 there's so much great information if you know where to 2:28:17.320 --> 2:28:17.629 look for it. 2:28:17.740 --> 2:28:19.619 I'll tell you something else, Scott. The whole you can't 2:28:19.640 --> 2:28:22.160 do that thing, I learned this early in my career 2:28:22.200 --> 2:28:25.240 here as well. Those people don't want you to succeed. 2:28:25.260 --> 2:28:25.560 They don't. 2:28:25.760 --> 2:28:28.080 They don't want you to do anything better or bigger 2:28:28.120 --> 2:28:30.650 than them. That's why they tell you that. Some of 2:28:30.670 --> 2:28:32.209 the times they may believe it, but most of the 2:28:32.250 --> 2:28:34.510 time I have found that those are the people that 2:28:35.190 --> 2:28:37.710 do not want you to succeed the most because it 2:28:37.750 --> 2:28:40.050 will reflect on what they didn't do in their life. 2:28:40.350 --> 2:28:43.010 That's why they keep saying it. You'll leave them behind. Yes, 100%. 2:28:43.000 --> 2:28:48.440 It's crabs in a bucket, and people don't– I think 2:28:48.500 --> 2:28:50.720 people just– it's easier for them to drag you down 2:28:50.740 --> 2:28:51.940 than to pull themselves down. 100%, yeah, Jack. 2:28:52.980 --> 2:28:54.959 I have a text question for you, Scott. 2:28:55.000 --> 2:28:58.340 It says, other than your book, what one book would 2:28:58.360 --> 2:29:01.150 you recommend to give your son or daughter in their 2:29:01.650 --> 2:29:03.129 30s for financial benefit? 2:29:03.790 --> 2:29:07.150 Good question. I think Carnegie's book, When Friends and Influence People, 2:29:07.230 --> 2:29:09.650 is probably the greatest book that's ever been written on 2:29:09.870 --> 2:29:12.430 human interaction, whether it be in business or otherwise. So 2:29:12.470 --> 2:29:16.640 if you had to pick one from a personal development standpoint, 2:29:16.680 --> 2:29:18.640 I think that's a great book. Millionaire Next Door is 2:29:18.680 --> 2:29:22.360 a wonderful book. Even Morgan Housel's new book, The Psychology 2:29:22.410 --> 2:29:23.990 of Money, is a really good money book as well. 2:29:24.010 --> 2:29:26.450 And they're all very common sense. you know, do this, 2:29:26.730 --> 2:29:28.650 then do that kind of books. It's not complex. 2:29:28.750 --> 2:29:30.220 And the millionaire next door kind of breaks down the 2:29:30.240 --> 2:29:32.080 whole idea of what you think people are as opposed 2:29:32.100 --> 2:29:32.980 to what they actually are. 2:29:33.180 --> 2:29:33.360 Yeah. 2:29:33.379 --> 2:29:34.300 It gives you all the data. 2:29:34.420 --> 2:29:36.900 Again, people would be shocked to know that, you know, 2:29:37.000 --> 2:29:39.260 there are millionaires living in your neighborhood that you don't 2:29:39.560 --> 2:29:42.740 even know. They got a 2,700 square foot house that's block. 2:29:42.780 --> 2:29:44.560 It looks like an old Florida house. And the guy 2:29:44.600 --> 2:29:47.620 keeps his lawn really nice. That's the guy. I mean, 2:29:47.640 --> 2:29:48.900 they're right there in your neighborhood. 2:29:49.180 --> 2:29:49.300 Yeah. 2:29:49.320 --> 2:29:50.939 The richest guy, one of the richest guys I've ever 2:29:50.990 --> 2:29:52.770 met in my life drove a Ford Ranger just like mine. 2:29:52.790 --> 2:29:57.430 He was a cardiologist, heart specialist, Shands. Actually, he's the 2:29:57.470 --> 2:29:59.410 guy who worked on Reagan. When Reagan had his heart attack, 2:29:59.450 --> 2:30:01.050 he happened to be the uncle of a good friend 2:30:01.090 --> 2:30:02.700 of mine from my hometown. We went over there to 2:30:02.720 --> 2:30:06.000 his place in Gainesville. He was out in the garden 2:30:06.120 --> 2:30:07.940 and we pulled around and said, when do I get 2:30:07.959 --> 2:30:10.830 to meet this big important uncle? He was the guy 2:30:10.840 --> 2:30:13.369 doing the gardening. He was the guy out there knee-deep 2:30:13.390 --> 2:30:15.210 in the plants. He'd much rather do that than anything 2:30:15.290 --> 2:30:15.850 else he was doing. 2:30:15.890 --> 2:30:19.390 Well, the other thing you'll learn is being wealthy or successful, 2:30:19.410 --> 2:30:21.529 however you define that, you want to be a little 2:30:21.590 --> 2:30:24.589 anonymous with that because people will look to take advantage 2:30:24.650 --> 2:30:28.310 of you as you make progress through life. So kind 2:30:28.390 --> 2:30:30.330 of keeping your mouth shut and moving forward is a 2:30:30.330 --> 2:30:30.730 good plan. 2:30:30.730 --> 2:30:32.910 100%. I know we have an event coming up here 2:30:32.990 --> 2:30:33.910 in Lake Mary soon. 2:30:34.170 --> 2:30:36.910 We do. It's on September the 26th. It's at noon 2:30:36.970 --> 2:30:39.310 at the Rooskris in Lake Mary. We do have room, 2:30:39.370 --> 2:30:43.010 although we are filling up quickly. It is everything 401k. 2:30:43.090 --> 2:30:47.110 So whether it's fees, whether it's fund selection, whether it's 2:30:47.150 --> 2:30:50.170 how to use a Roth inside your 401k, if it's 2:30:50.240 --> 2:30:52.980 understanding your statement and how to do financial planning while 2:30:53.080 --> 2:30:56.359 using a 401k. This is the event for you. We're 2:30:56.420 --> 2:30:59.140 literally going to cover every one of those topics in 2:30:59.180 --> 2:31:02.060 how to maximize your 401k.

There's no money involved, and 2:31:09.340 --> 2:31:11.830 not only will you get the information, no hard sell, 2:31:11.910 --> 2:31:13.670 no nothing like that. This is not like a cruise 2:31:13.680 --> 2:31:15.279 where you have to sit through some pitch to get it. 2:31:15.310 --> 2:31:16.970 It's not like that at all. You'll also get a 2:31:17.010 --> 2:31:18.250 wonderful meal, and the restaurant's great. 2:31:18.470 --> 2:31:21.209 Well, and as I think I said last week, we 2:31:21.230 --> 2:31:24.150 get paid to do this event for companies. What you're 2:31:24.170 --> 2:31:26.870 going to see on Saturday, the 26th, is what we 2:31:26.890 --> 2:31:29.500 get paid to go in and teach employees at companies 2:31:29.520 --> 2:31:32.080 throughout Central Florida. So this is a free opportunity to 2:31:32.120 --> 2:31:33.740 do it, and if you're good, we'll give you a 2:31:33.760 --> 2:31:35.780 steak or a piece of chicken. 2:31:35.840 --> 2:31:37.619 And Jack went to the one last year for the 2:31:38.020 --> 2:31:39.310 401k special, and he said it was amazing. 2:31:39.440 --> 2:31:43.310 Yeah, you learn so much, and it's something that I'm 2:31:43.330 --> 2:31:45.890 putting money in my 401k, but it's great to get 2:31:45.950 --> 2:31:48.560 knowledge of, okay, And then what happens? 2:31:48.580 --> 2:31:49.620 Yeah, right.

Again, that's edgewaterfamilywealth.com. 2:31:55.100 --> 2:31:56.939 Go to those pull-down bars, pull that thing down, make 2:31:56.959 --> 2:32:00.090 yourself a reservation, get yourself a seat.

We look forward to 2:32:06.470 --> 2:32:09.570 seeing you. That'll go quick. You heard it here first? 2:32:09.750 --> 2:32:13.570 Yeah, property insurance is trending downward in Florida. An Orange 2:32:13.610 --> 2:32:17.350 County fire chief faces a prostitution charge and new details 2:32:17.410 --> 2:32:19.510 emerge in the arrest of the 49ers owner. 2:32:19.810 --> 2:32:21.950 We'll talk about that next during You Heard It Here First. 2:32:21.980 --> 2:32:24.090 I gotta get me one of these hookers. Everybody's doing it. 2:32:24.459 --> 2:32:26.039 Only the rich got the billionaires, buddy. 2:32:26.120 --> 2:32:27.110 Is that what it is? That's it. 2:32:27.120 --> 2:32:28.320 That fire chief is like a billy? 2:32:28.340 --> 2:32:30.260 Oh, okay, man. All right. 2:32:30.500 --> 2:32:31.699 Back in a sec with Debs News. We'll get the 2:32:31.740 --> 2:32:32.699 hell out of here on a Tuesday. 2:32:36.170 --> 2:32:39.789 It's time for a Talkback Purge on the Jim Colbert Show. 2:32:41.410 --> 2:32:44.430 Hey, how's it ohana? I was a career bartender. 2:32:44.640 --> 2:32:47.010 CJ's gave me my start, trained me how to 10 bar, 2:32:47.080 --> 2:32:49.580 and boy did it take off from there. It was 2:32:49.660 --> 2:32:53.060 nothing to fling an extra 50 or 100 for good service. 2:32:53.080 --> 2:32:54.540 And that's how we rolled back in the day. 2:32:55.160 --> 2:32:59.280 But I think this tip included idea really rewards the slackers, 2:32:59.560 --> 2:33:03.240 and it doesn't reward that exceptional waiter. that knows his stuff, 2:33:03.300 --> 2:33:05.840 provides that extra level of service, and I just don't 2:33:05.860 --> 2:33:06.860 think it's a good idea. 2:33:06.879 --> 2:33:09.910 Aloha. Aloha, brother. Aloha. 2:33:10.930 --> 2:33:17.529 Jim James, I want to respectfully raise a beer, hence 2:33:17.750 --> 2:33:21.420 why I didn't crack it, and this is a somber 2:33:21.530 --> 2:33:28.400 tone from me, because we lost one of the greatest 2:33:28.600 --> 2:33:31.980 performers ever, And let's face it, one of the most 2:33:32.140 --> 2:33:33.320 famous chests. 2:33:34.200 --> 2:33:36.360 We raise a beer to Dolly Parton. 2:33:37.820 --> 2:33:40.660 Oh, just thought of this. With Dolly Parton passing away 2:33:40.740 --> 2:33:43.440 being so well known, are we about to see the 2:33:43.500 --> 2:33:45.080 start of another big three? 2:33:45.500 --> 2:33:48.400 Or did someone else pass away who we're not noticing? 2:33:48.420 --> 2:33:50.670 Oh, that's a good question. 2:33:50.700 --> 2:33:51.360 Mitch McConnell. 2:33:51.470 --> 2:33:57.150 Oof. Easy. Hello, hello, hello. 2:33:57.310 --> 2:33:59.269 Jim, Jack, Deborah. 2:33:59.959 --> 2:34:01.580 Hey, Jack, I owe you an apology. 2:34:01.620 --> 2:34:06.470 This is Paul from Ormond. I called in meaning a compliment. 2:34:06.570 --> 2:34:09.570 When you picked up the phone, I said, Hey, Jack, 2:34:09.770 --> 2:34:14.129 you're the hardest man in radio. I meant hardest working 2:34:14.230 --> 2:34:17.710 in radio. Don't flip me off your list. 2:34:17.870 --> 2:34:22.119 I've talked to people. Either way, he's not wrong. He's 2:34:22.140 --> 2:34:28.420 just a blue chew away, sir. That's your purge. All right. 2:34:28.440 --> 2:34:29.040 Thanks, buddy. 2:34:29.060 --> 2:34:29.240 407-916-1041. 2:34:29.280 --> 2:34:33.530 Text us 77031. I'm Jim Debjack and Scott Brown here. Scott, 2:34:33.570 --> 2:34:34.690 by the way, I know that you have two books 2:34:34.709 --> 2:34:36.590 that people can download for free on your website. 2:34:37.230 --> 2:34:39.770 Yeah, you can go to edgewaterfamilywealth.com, download I Never Made 2:34:39.810 --> 2:34:43.890 Anybody Rich by Scott Brown, and or you can download 2:34:43.990 --> 2:34:45.750 I Got a Guy, which is a guide to using 2:34:45.790 --> 2:34:48.170 a financial advisor. So if you're a little Worried about 2:34:48.190 --> 2:34:50.060 what to say, what to ask, that is the guide 2:34:50.240 --> 2:34:51.500 for you. Yeah, also in. 2:34:51.480 --> 2:34:54.340 The September 26 gig in Lake Mary, Roost, Chris, we 2:34:54.360 --> 2:34:56.640 just had somebody who's a listener, a long-time deputy. Scott said, 2:34:56.900 --> 2:35:00.380 if we have 401k information that we have for ourselves, 2:35:00.420 --> 2:35:04.200 should we bring that with us as cross-brand? In other words, 2:35:04.379 --> 2:35:07.480 if people do come out, should they bring the information 2:35:07.500 --> 2:35:09.340 they have or make a few notes about what they 2:35:09.379 --> 2:35:10.939 have to ask questions like that? 2:35:10.980 --> 2:35:13.520 Yeah, they could bring it as a reference. Don't share 2:35:13.540 --> 2:35:14.680 it with your neighbors, by the way. 2:35:14.700 --> 2:35:15.480 Yeah, don't do that. 2:35:15.680 --> 2:35:19.260 Don't feed it into AI. or anything. But yeah, we're 2:35:19.280 --> 2:35:21.020 happy to have you bring it along. And if you 2:35:21.040 --> 2:35:23.990 have a direct question, say, line four on paragraph five, 2:35:24.010 --> 2:35:25.689 what does that mean? We'll happily answer those questions. 2:35:25.750 --> 2:35:27.789 And you guys actually, in the context of this, don't 2:35:27.830 --> 2:35:30.550 you kind of do that almost? Like take somebody through 2:35:30.570 --> 2:35:31.510 the steps while you're. 2:35:31.370 --> 2:35:34.430 Doing the seminar? 2:35:34.950 --> 2:35:35.350 Yeah. 2:35:35.410 --> 2:35:38.350 Well, we actually give you a hypothetical 401k and show 2:35:38.400 --> 2:35:40.220 you how to use it. And we can be very 2:35:40.260 --> 2:35:42.660 specific about funds and how to select them and Ross 2:35:42.680 --> 2:35:43.760 and all those sort of things. So yeah. 2:35:44.080 --> 2:35:46.160 We actually walk you through as if you were our 2:35:46.180 --> 2:35:48.720 401k participant. And then just another question for me, because 2:35:48.740 --> 2:35:51.689 I find this interesting. So when you have a 401k now, 2:35:51.709 --> 2:35:54.150 let's say it's a Fidelity 401k, which most of them are, right? 2:35:54.170 --> 2:35:54.890 A lot of them, sure. 2:35:55.250 --> 2:35:55.410 Right. 2:35:55.470 --> 2:35:58.210 So they have selections they make from them, right? That 2:35:58.250 --> 2:36:00.529 money is invested and it's from them. When you decide 2:36:00.570 --> 2:36:03.300 to retire, is that a situation where you go into 2:36:03.320 --> 2:36:06.440 the 401k and then you kind of, you figure out 2:36:06.560 --> 2:36:09.439 what funds are the best post-retirement or does it always 2:36:09.480 --> 2:36:10.200 stay the same? 2:36:10.680 --> 2:36:13.390 Generally, it does not. I would say somewhere around 70% 2:36:13.390 --> 2:36:15.990 or 80% of folks roll their money out of their 2:36:16.050 --> 2:36:20.009 existing 401k into their own IRA. And the primary reason 2:36:20.070 --> 2:36:23.150 for that is they get a wider selection because most 2:36:23.390 --> 2:36:27.400 401ks have very limited menus to choose from. So people 2:36:27.440 --> 2:36:29.840 want a little more selection and planning to go along 2:36:29.879 --> 2:36:30.560 with it. Yeah, yeah, cool. 2:36:30.600 --> 2:36:32.780 You're going to have a lot of questions like that because, man, 2:36:32.840 --> 2:36:35.460 it can be very confusing. People are going to ask, 2:36:35.480 --> 2:36:36.880 if I do this, I do this. And the cool 2:36:36.900 --> 2:36:38.760 thing is you'll see that simple math. And if you 2:36:38.780 --> 2:36:40.439 have an idea in your mind when you come to 2:36:40.480 --> 2:36:42.910 the event of when you want to do this, how 2:36:42.940 --> 2:36:44.680 much you think you need, the good thing is Scott 2:36:44.700 --> 2:36:47.110 and those guys can kind of confirm where you are. 2:36:47.129 --> 2:36:48.730 If you're close, if you're not close, what you need 2:36:48.750 --> 2:36:50.930 to do to get there, which is awesome. That's 100% correct. 2:36:50.990 --> 2:36:52.750 Are you on track? Are you not on track? And 2:36:52.770 --> 2:36:54.560 if you're not on track, why? How do we fix it? 2:36:54.590 --> 2:36:55.830 That's really what it's all about. 2:36:55.850 --> 2:36:58.590 Got one more listener text in.
