WEBVTT - Mornings with Thom Brennaman - 1/7/2025

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:03.600
<v Speaker 1>Money, money, money, Better get ready, It's time for a

0:00:03.640 --> 0:00:07.760
<v Speaker 1>big old want of business news. This is the Bloomberg

0:00:07.840 --> 0:00:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Money Minute on seven hundred WLW.

0:00:10.520 --> 0:00:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Alrighty, we say good morning to Denise Pelagreney from the

0:00:13.480 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 2>Bloomberg newsroom in New York City. This is a disturbing story.

0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:21.560
<v Speaker 2>Social media platform X appears to be a top site, Denise,

0:00:21.640 --> 0:00:27.200
<v Speaker 2>for creating images of people non consensually undressed by AI.

0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:28.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:00:28.320 --> 0:00:31.400
<v Speaker 4>And I mean usually when I see this kind of story,

0:00:31.560 --> 0:00:34.400
<v Speaker 4>I just report of yep, right, But this time I

0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:36.760
<v Speaker 4>read this story. I read it like three or four

0:00:36.760 --> 0:00:39.440
<v Speaker 4>times just to make sure I was reading it correctly

0:00:39.479 --> 0:00:43.760
<v Speaker 4>and I wasn't missing something. Here's the story. Elon Musk's

0:00:44.000 --> 0:00:47.120
<v Speaker 4>X has apparently become a top site for images of

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:50.159
<v Speaker 4>people that have been non consensually undressed by AI, as

0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:54.000
<v Speaker 4>you mentioned, with thousands of instances each hour. This is

0:00:54.000 --> 0:00:57.840
<v Speaker 4>according to Genevieve Oh It's a social media and deep

0:00:57.880 --> 0:01:02.440
<v Speaker 4>fake researcher. And this this report indicates Grock generated about

0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:06.320
<v Speaker 4>six thousand, seven hundred images every hour that were identified

0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:10.200
<v Speaker 4>as sexually suggestive or neudifying. Compares to only and I

0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:13.759
<v Speaker 4>say only that this is still a lot seventy nine

0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:18.440
<v Speaker 4>new AI undressing images per hour on either other top websites,

0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:21.319
<v Speaker 4>which still even at a low seventy nine is obviously

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.880
<v Speaker 4>still too much. But compared to six thousand, seven hundred

0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:27.600
<v Speaker 4>images every hour, if that report is correct, that's just.

0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.080
<v Speaker 3>Shocking. Yeah, totally, it is totally.

0:01:31.520 --> 0:01:35.080
<v Speaker 2>It'll be if Elon Musk gets directly involved in this,

0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:36.640
<v Speaker 2>I would imagine that he will.

0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:40.200
<v Speaker 4>Well, in the past he said he'd like to punish

0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:42.560
<v Speaker 4>the people who try to do things like that. But

0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:46.080
<v Speaker 4>this report that we have out this morning also says

0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:49.840
<v Speaker 4>that people have objected to X, and some say X

0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:51.920
<v Speaker 4>hasn't done anything to take them down. Now, these are

0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:56.000
<v Speaker 4>individual claims that those individual claims not investigated by Bloomberg

0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:59.760
<v Speaker 4>still looking into everything, but just a jaw dropper.

0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:02.520
<v Speaker 2>Is Meanwhile, if you're looking for a job, it could

0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:06.360
<v Speaker 2>be worth your while to become an auto dealer mechanic.

0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:07.400
<v Speaker 3>They are in need.

0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 4>I mean, this is crazy. Ford says it's struggling to

0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 4>fill what it calls six figure mechanic jobs. These jobs

0:02:15.600 --> 0:02:18.160
<v Speaker 4>for senior mechanics they pay something like one hundred and

0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:21.679
<v Speaker 4>twenty thousand dollars a year, and Ford says it has

0:02:21.919 --> 0:02:27.839
<v Speaker 4>five thousand mechanic openings at its dealerships amid a labor shortage.

0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:29.840
<v Speaker 4>You know, you do have to pay some money for

0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:32.360
<v Speaker 4>training to get into one of these jobs. When you start,

0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:34.760
<v Speaker 4>you might only get paid fifty eight thousand dollars a year.

0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:36.760
<v Speaker 4>But after two or three years, if you don't turn

0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:39.959
<v Speaker 4>your nose up at you know, jobs like taking out

0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:43.760
<v Speaker 4>the transmission or the engine, sure, fix the oil leak,

0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:46.320
<v Speaker 4>redo whatever, those are six thousand dollars jobs.

0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 5>Right.

0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:48.680
<v Speaker 4>It's the dealership is making money on these. If you

0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:50.920
<v Speaker 4>don't mind that kind of labor, you can make a

0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:53.520
<v Speaker 4>ton of money out un trade schools.

0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:56.560
<v Speaker 2>They're going through the roof for reasons, just like this

0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:59.679
<v Speaker 2>that did. I had a friend of my son's in

0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:02.679
<v Speaker 2>heigh school. He just wasn't cut out for college, if

0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:05.440
<v Speaker 2>you will, went to a trade school. And I mean

0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:08.280
<v Speaker 2>this guy now is working for a building contractor. He's

0:03:08.320 --> 0:03:10.600
<v Speaker 2>making one hundred and something thousand dollars years twenty one

0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:11.120
<v Speaker 2>years old.

0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, those are the other one framers, bricklayers and those people.

0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:16.840
<v Speaker 4>I mean they work their butts.

0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:20.240
<v Speaker 3>Ze, yes they do. Uh, okay. The stock futures today, Denise.

0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:23.680
<v Speaker 4>All right, how futures are up twenty seven, SMP futures

0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:27.200
<v Speaker 4>down six, Nasdaq futures down fifty nine, Crude oil futures

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:30.800
<v Speaker 4>slightly lower. And that's amid the events unfolding in Venezuela

0:03:30.840 --> 0:03:33.880
<v Speaker 4>with the Trump administration looking for a lot of Venezuelan

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:35.920
<v Speaker 4>and oil to come to the US. Still some tension

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:38.560
<v Speaker 4>over exactly how it's going to get their Chevron is

0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:41.120
<v Speaker 4>involved in. Those events are still unfolding from Bloomberg. I'm

0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:45.240
<v Speaker 4>Denise Pelgrinean News Radio seven hundred WLW.

0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:48.760
<v Speaker 2>Man, how about that one hundred and twenty something thousand

0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:52.400
<v Speaker 2>dollars of the year and they're looking for five thousand

0:03:52.440 --> 0:03:57.600
<v Speaker 2>people to fill those jobs. Steve Balco, you got to

0:03:57.600 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 2>get some veterans in there to start doing that kind

0:03:59.600 --> 0:03:59.880
<v Speaker 2>of thing.

0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:04.200
<v Speaker 6>I'm telling you, because it's an unknown, it really is, right,

0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:07.360
<v Speaker 6>And I don't where do you see the advertisements? Are they?

0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:09.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, we all of a sudden have a

0:04:09.760 --> 0:04:11.920
<v Speaker 2>group and I'm drawing a blank, and I feel terrible

0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:13.800
<v Speaker 2>that I'm drawing a blank right now. But I read

0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:18.080
<v Speaker 2>a story the other day of this huge school, for

0:04:18.200 --> 0:04:21.200
<v Speaker 2>lack of a better term, right up in Lebanon, the

0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:25.600
<v Speaker 2>Lebanon Monroe area up there, tens and tens of thousands

0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 2>of square feet where they're teaching guys to do everything.

0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:30.039
<v Speaker 2>They had a big story about it the other day,

0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:32.000
<v Speaker 2>and of course we all know about, you know, some

0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:34.280
<v Speaker 2>of the tech schools here in town. And that's where

0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:37.159
<v Speaker 2>the friend of my sons went because he just he

0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:39.159
<v Speaker 2>knew he didn't he didn't want to go to college,

0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:41.200
<v Speaker 2>he didn't want to be opening books and you know

0:04:41.360 --> 0:04:43.320
<v Speaker 2>this kind of thing. So he went there got his

0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:45.480
<v Speaker 2>training while he was in high school, and he's been

0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:47.480
<v Speaker 2>working for a home builder and knocking it out of

0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:49.560
<v Speaker 2>the park. But that's why, that's not why you're here.

0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:52.520
<v Speaker 2>Always nice to have Steve Balco here. I tell you

0:04:52.600 --> 0:04:54.880
<v Speaker 2>of all the times we've gotten together from the Claremont

0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:58.119
<v Speaker 2>County Veterans Association, we all the times we've been here.

0:04:58.360 --> 0:04:59.880
<v Speaker 2>But looking over some of the notes that you and

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:02.640
<v Speaker 2>Kenny Williamson put together to talk about today, I think

0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:06.440
<v Speaker 2>today might be one of the more interesting conversations we're

0:05:06.480 --> 0:05:10.920
<v Speaker 2>going to have because this deals directly with getting VA

0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:17.479
<v Speaker 2>healthcare benefits right and some of the misconceptions out there, okay.

0:05:17.680 --> 0:05:20.960
<v Speaker 6>And the misconception is either by the VA, the public

0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:23.880
<v Speaker 6>or the veteran themselves, all subjective to the party.

0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:26.520
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's start with here's one of them. Okay,

0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:30.200
<v Speaker 2>that you've heard before. You don't want to take medical

0:05:30.240 --> 0:05:33.159
<v Speaker 2>care away from other veterans.

0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:37.920
<v Speaker 6>False, right, it is as absolutely false, but it's rooted

0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:42.160
<v Speaker 6>somewhat in history. If we went back to your grandparents,

0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:45.200
<v Speaker 6>I think we're about the same age, Tom, They probably

0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:49.360
<v Speaker 6>as children or teens twenties, came through the depression, that's right,

0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:52.080
<v Speaker 6>and they were taught pick that nail up, straight in it,

0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:55.440
<v Speaker 6>throw on the bucket, grab that penny goes in your pocket. Right,

0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:58.440
<v Speaker 6>there is nothing wasted, everything is reusable, yep.

0:05:58.640 --> 0:05:58.760
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:04.919
<v Speaker 6>Then they became such a self reliant part of community.

0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:07.560
<v Speaker 6>We went through World War Two, we had victory gardens.

0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:11.280
<v Speaker 6>It's do what you can sacrifice. Do without straighten that out,

0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:14.240
<v Speaker 6>reuse that that. When it gets to the point where

0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:17.200
<v Speaker 6>they need hearing aids. Now, at this age with their

0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:20.679
<v Speaker 6>self self reliance, just turn up the volume on a TV. Well,

0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:23.760
<v Speaker 6>three apartments down are listening to your TV coming to

0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:26.280
<v Speaker 6>the walls. But yet I can still hear it because

0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:28.680
<v Speaker 6>I'm afraid if I take that pair of hearing aids

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:31.720
<v Speaker 6>for the VA, someone else is not going to get

0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:33.480
<v Speaker 6>their hearing aids, and they may need them more than

0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:36.960
<v Speaker 6>I do. But the fact is the VA, this is

0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:39.400
<v Speaker 6>the federal government. We need to think about it that way.

0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:43.760
<v Speaker 6>To develop budget, you need to have expense and if

0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:48.320
<v Speaker 6>people are not taking their hearing aids and or signing

0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:52.000
<v Speaker 6>up for healthcare with the VA, their budget is then reduced.

0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:55.240
<v Speaker 6>Try the VA location. So sign up for the healthcare,

0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:58.400
<v Speaker 6>Go get your services, Go get your hearing aids. Okay,

0:06:58.400 --> 0:06:59.159
<v Speaker 6>hand in hand with that.

0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:03.839
<v Speaker 2>Really, veterans, there are many out there who believe that

0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:06.960
<v Speaker 2>you had to be injured in service or have service

0:07:07.080 --> 0:07:10.880
<v Speaker 2>connected disabilities to be eligible for VA healthcare.

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:13.840
<v Speaker 3>Not true, No, no, not at all.

0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:17.960
<v Speaker 6>And it is a misnomer that there's this impression that

0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:20.960
<v Speaker 6>I have to take my medical records from active duty

0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:26.040
<v Speaker 6>converted into an issue and how it's impacted my life

0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:29.880
<v Speaker 6>and my capabilities today, and that turns into compensation and benefits,

0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:32.480
<v Speaker 6>and that's what the VA is only going to treat

0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:35.560
<v Speaker 6>me for. But you can, actually, as a veteran with

0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:38.240
<v Speaker 6>a D two to fourteen from active duty, can sign

0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:41.240
<v Speaker 6>up for VA healthcare just like you would a primary

0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:44.840
<v Speaker 6>care physician from someplace else. You may have a deductible

0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:49.720
<v Speaker 6>and that's based off your level of injury firm. Right,

0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:52.720
<v Speaker 6>so I'm at a If an individual's at fifty percent

0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:57.040
<v Speaker 6>or higher disability rating by the VA, your healthcare is

0:07:57.080 --> 0:07:59.440
<v Speaker 6>free from the VA. But you might be somebody that

0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:01.440
<v Speaker 6>nothing else. I mean, I got a cold on active

0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:04.320
<v Speaker 6>duty and that was it. There's nothing wrong with me. Well,

0:08:04.320 --> 0:08:07.040
<v Speaker 6>you might pay a twenty dollars copay, a thirty dollars copay,

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:09.280
<v Speaker 6>no different than what you do out in town. Sure,

0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:11.240
<v Speaker 6>but you just need to sign up for healthcare and

0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:13.760
<v Speaker 6>you can have a primary care physician through the health care.

0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:17.200
<v Speaker 3>And that does not mean strictly with the VA. Hospital.

0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:21.760
<v Speaker 6>We have community based outpatient clinics. We call them Sea Box.

0:08:22.080 --> 0:08:24.560
<v Speaker 6>There's one on thirty two in Claremont over by our

0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:27.440
<v Speaker 6>church as well. And so this is where I have

0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:31.200
<v Speaker 6>outpatient care where I can do I test hearing AIDS.

0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:34.160
<v Speaker 6>I have a general physician in there that's doing my

0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:38.719
<v Speaker 6>wellness checks for me, flu shots, blood analyzation, what have you?

0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:42.800
<v Speaker 6>So broaden your perspective, veterans on how you think about

0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:43.360
<v Speaker 6>the VA.

0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay, we've got three other ones here, all of them

0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:48.360
<v Speaker 2>very important. Some might say, well, look, I already have

0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:52.079
<v Speaker 2>private medical insurance. That has to disqualify then me as

0:08:52.120 --> 0:08:54.280
<v Speaker 2>a veteran from enrolling in the VA.

0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:59.760
<v Speaker 6>Again not true. Yeah, let's squash that rumor. So number one,

0:08:59.880 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 6>I have retired from active duty, so I have Tricare,

0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:06.640
<v Speaker 6>so I get health care for the rest of my life.

0:09:06.640 --> 0:09:09.880
<v Speaker 6>Turns to Medicare at sixty five. That's forced by the

0:09:09.920 --> 0:09:13.640
<v Speaker 6>government as everybody else is right. I also work for

0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:16.240
<v Speaker 6>the County of Clarmont, so I have County of Clarmont's

0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:21.360
<v Speaker 6>health insurance. I also have VA health insurance because at

0:09:21.400 --> 0:09:25.360
<v Speaker 6>my rated disability, the VA takes care of my health. Now,

0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:30.560
<v Speaker 6>the interesting thing is the VA wants to work in

0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:35.040
<v Speaker 6>concert with you. There's not a set level like if

0:09:35.160 --> 0:09:38.760
<v Speaker 6>Johnny reaches this point, then will help take care of them.

0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:41.079
<v Speaker 6>If you have a DD two to fourteen from active

0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:45.280
<v Speaker 6>duty the VA. You can even enroll online for health care.

0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:49.240
<v Speaker 6>It's whether there's a col payment amount or every service

0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:50.280
<v Speaker 6>is free to the VA.

0:09:50.720 --> 0:09:53.400
<v Speaker 2>Okay, well, you just brought it up about a lot

0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:56.120
<v Speaker 2>of people think, well, I can't sign up anywhere locally.

0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:59.000
<v Speaker 2>I live out in Claremont County. There's no way I

0:09:59.000 --> 0:10:00.600
<v Speaker 2>can sign up there. I have to go all the

0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:02.080
<v Speaker 2>way to Virginia to do that.

0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:05.960
<v Speaker 6>Right, I don't want to go to downtown CNT No, right,

0:10:06.200 --> 0:10:07.240
<v Speaker 6>VA dot gov.

0:10:07.040 --> 0:10:08.160
<v Speaker 3>And sign up for healthcare.

0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:11.400
<v Speaker 6>But there's also you know, sometimes there's there may be

0:10:11.600 --> 0:10:14.600
<v Speaker 6>a I don't talk in the capitalist sense, but if

0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:18.720
<v Speaker 6>I'm working for another employer out in town, okay, and

0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:22.000
<v Speaker 6>I'm getting healthcare through that employer, yep, well then I

0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:23.160
<v Speaker 6>can't get VA healthcare.

0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:25.319
<v Speaker 3>That's a misnumber. Yes you can.

0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:30.640
<v Speaker 6>The capitalist side of my heart says, hey, mister employer,

0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:35.560
<v Speaker 6>I've got health care through the VA. If I decline

0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:38.959
<v Speaker 6>your health care, well you bump my yearly comp by

0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:39.840
<v Speaker 6>six seven thousand.

0:10:40.160 --> 0:10:42.520
<v Speaker 3>You're going to pay for my healthcare anyway. Perfect sense.

0:10:42.600 --> 0:10:44.640
<v Speaker 6>Yep, right, why not bring that home to the family

0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:47.000
<v Speaker 6>because you already have a healthcare That's a hell of

0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:47.520
<v Speaker 6>an idea.

0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:50.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean, it really is. And here's the one

0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:52.400
<v Speaker 3>that that I found.

0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:54.760
<v Speaker 2>All of these I think are just so interesting because

0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 2>I know there are so many men and women who

0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:59.360
<v Speaker 2>served our country out there. We talk about them all

0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:02.360
<v Speaker 2>the time and thank them for their service, who just

0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:04.840
<v Speaker 2>think some of these things just because the reasons you

0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:07.320
<v Speaker 2>mentioned a little while ago that there is a quote unquote,

0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:12.080
<v Speaker 2>here's another one waiting period following active duty before a

0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:14.520
<v Speaker 2>veteran can enroll in VA healthcare.

0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:18.160
<v Speaker 3>Again not true. Yeah, where's the bin message?

0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:18.400
<v Speaker 5>Right?

0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:21.880
<v Speaker 3>Where's that dumb button? There is a.

0:11:23.440 --> 0:11:26.760
<v Speaker 6>The day after active duty you're eligible to sign up

0:11:26.760 --> 0:11:30.640
<v Speaker 6>for VA healthcare. And I would imagine while on active

0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:33.400
<v Speaker 6>duty in your last ninety days that you could submit

0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:37.080
<v Speaker 6>the paperwork that it's a seamless transition into the VA healthcare.

0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 2>You know, you just brought up something that I think

0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:42.320
<v Speaker 2>is a nightmare for anybody. You don't have to be

0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:46.800
<v Speaker 2>a veteran for this, but paperwork. I mean, my god,

0:11:47.240 --> 0:11:50.679
<v Speaker 2>you know, and I'm curious. That's part of what you

0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:53.680
<v Speaker 2>guys do to help some of these veterans, right is

0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:56.480
<v Speaker 2>to NAT because man to navigate through some of Our

0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:59.040
<v Speaker 2>daughter just bought a car and she's going through it

0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:01.840
<v Speaker 2>for the first time. She got it yesterday. Some of

0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:04.480
<v Speaker 2>the paperwork just for that, I can't imagine what it's

0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:07.080
<v Speaker 2>like if you're trying to get into VA healthcare. Buying

0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:09.200
<v Speaker 2>a car is half a day of your life. It

0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:10.840
<v Speaker 2>was a half a day of her life yesterday.

0:12:10.960 --> 0:12:14.840
<v Speaker 6>It takes time, right, and to sign up for VA Healthcare,

0:12:15.320 --> 0:12:20.840
<v Speaker 6>there is a sequence, a synchrony, a matrix of how

0:12:20.920 --> 0:12:24.920
<v Speaker 6>you file for healthcare and benefits. And if you get

0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:27.439
<v Speaker 6>it wrong, if you use the wrong form, if you

0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:30.959
<v Speaker 6>use an old form, the VA kicks it back. Use

0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:34.360
<v Speaker 6>your county veteran service officers. They know the current forms,

0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:36.600
<v Speaker 6>they know the routing, they have a direct link to

0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:39.520
<v Speaker 6>the VA. Everything we do is free for the veteran

0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:42.959
<v Speaker 6>and they know the proper process and who to call

0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:45.040
<v Speaker 6>if it gets stuck in the process.

0:12:45.160 --> 0:12:48.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, and you mentioned maybe two or three times ago

0:12:48.760 --> 0:12:51.160
<v Speaker 2>when we got together that you're actually bringing in more

0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:53.440
<v Speaker 2>and more people out in Claremont County that can help

0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:56.480
<v Speaker 2>specifically with many things, but things like that as well.

0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:59.640
<v Speaker 6>Right right, Yeah, we added a new service officer, so

0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:02.800
<v Speaker 6>we by twenty percent. We had four, we now have five. Yeah,

0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:06.960
<v Speaker 6>so which is phenomenal. We've hired new drivers. I had

0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:09.360
<v Speaker 6>to purchase a new vehicle, so we're up to a

0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:12.760
<v Speaker 6>fleet of five. Now we're shuttling upwards of one hundred

0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:15.720
<v Speaker 6>and thirty veterans a month, no kidding, door to door

0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:18.200
<v Speaker 6>service to the VA and back. And if you've ever

0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:21.600
<v Speaker 6>been to the VA parking lot downtown Cincinnati, you will

0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:24.240
<v Speaker 6>appreciate the fact of door to door service.

0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:26.040
<v Speaker 2>You know, let me ask you this, and you don't

0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:28.120
<v Speaker 2>work for the v A. I mean, in some way,

0:13:28.200 --> 0:13:30.960
<v Speaker 2>it's sort of all tied together. But I'm just curious

0:13:30.960 --> 0:13:35.040
<v Speaker 2>of this because you know, as a layman out there,

0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:37.400
<v Speaker 2>I can read these articles about the VA is this,

0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:39.520
<v Speaker 2>and boy, it's in terrible shape there and we're not

0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:42.040
<v Speaker 2>treating our guys rights, so on and so forth. What

0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:45.400
<v Speaker 2>is the experience for a veteran going to the VA

0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:46.280
<v Speaker 2>for the first time.

0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:47.839
<v Speaker 3>Is it a positive experience?

0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:51.960
<v Speaker 6>I will tell you we are in my opinion. This

0:13:52.080 --> 0:13:56.840
<v Speaker 6>is Steve Bozo's personal opinion, coming from Columbus, coming from Georgia,

0:13:57.320 --> 0:13:58.520
<v Speaker 6>from Columbus, Ohio.

0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:03.360
<v Speaker 3>The v here in Cincinnati. I don't want to call

0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:04.360
<v Speaker 3>it an anomaly, but.

0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:07.800
<v Speaker 6>What I do know is that the leadership of our

0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:13.080
<v Speaker 6>VA location of Cincinnati is aggressive at tackling problems.

0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:14.400
<v Speaker 3>They're positive.

0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:19.360
<v Speaker 6>I have many friends, personally, none that I've even participated with,

0:14:19.560 --> 0:14:23.080
<v Speaker 6>who've had cancer treatment to the VA and said, everybody

0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:24.119
<v Speaker 6>is positive.

0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:25.239
<v Speaker 3>They're welcoming.

0:14:25.720 --> 0:14:28.760
<v Speaker 6>It is really a great experience, which is why you

0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:31.880
<v Speaker 6>probably see their parking lot so full downtown and it's

0:14:31.880 --> 0:14:33.240
<v Speaker 6>hard to find a parking space.

0:14:33.480 --> 0:14:35.440
<v Speaker 3>But I will tell you Cincinnati, VA is doing a

0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:38.400
<v Speaker 3>great job. So I am thrilled to hear that.

0:14:38.440 --> 0:14:40.920
<v Speaker 2>Hats off indeed to them, and hats out to everything

0:14:40.960 --> 0:14:43.760
<v Speaker 2>you guys are doing out there in Claremont County.

0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:45.640
<v Speaker 3>How was before I let you go?

0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:49.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm curious and I always I think of so many people,

0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:55.080
<v Speaker 2>those less fortunate, the poor, the needy, veterans around the holidays.

0:14:57.160 --> 0:15:00.360
<v Speaker 2>It's a broad question, but did you get us sense

0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:03.880
<v Speaker 2>of good things during the holidays for so many veterans

0:15:03.920 --> 0:15:04.480
<v Speaker 2>out there?

0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:07.160
<v Speaker 6>We did, and I'm glad you threw that one out there.

0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:11.480
<v Speaker 6>There's the American Legion has a gentleman that works with

0:15:11.600 --> 0:15:14.400
<v Speaker 6>us who presents to my board. I have a board

0:15:14.440 --> 0:15:18.880
<v Speaker 6>of five commissioners. For the past two years we have

0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:24.080
<v Speaker 6>presented funds so that we can underpin those that were

0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:28.520
<v Speaker 6>food deprived, sure and families. There's other other five to

0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:32.320
<v Speaker 6>one c three organizations that we will vet out veterans

0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:35.800
<v Speaker 6>that need toys or gifts for children. And so this year,

0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:40.240
<v Speaker 6>I don't know how many Thanksgiving and Christmas meal packages

0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:43.560
<v Speaker 6>were handed out to veterans and their families fantasts to

0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:47.160
<v Speaker 6>include and then over Christmas jackets presents each kid got

0:15:47.160 --> 0:15:51.200
<v Speaker 6>two presents from a veterans family, so they get vetted

0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:54.320
<v Speaker 6>out through the VA. Where are they at in this process?

0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:56.920
<v Speaker 6>Are they in a certain type of program with the VA?

0:15:57.080 --> 0:15:59.720
<v Speaker 6>Are the Claremont County residents? So we spend our money

0:15:59.760 --> 0:16:02.960
<v Speaker 6>on Larmont County veterans, right, so I can't cross borders

0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:07.800
<v Speaker 6>there and we don't, but yet to offer that veteran family.

0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:12.160
<v Speaker 6>Let me help you, John, stand up your family as

0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:13.280
<v Speaker 6>a dad wants to do.

0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:16.160

<v Speaker 4>the crude oil market after President Trump said Venezuela will

0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:01.399
<v Speaker 4>give up thirty to fifty millillion barrels of oil to

0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:03.960
<v Speaker 4>the US. That's worth about two point eight billion dollars

0:19:04.000 --> 0:19:08.159
<v Speaker 4>at the current market price. Illinois Democrat Robin Kelly introducing

<v Speaker 2>the banks of the Little Miami River. And that is

0:20:15.040 --> 0:20:18.320
<v Speaker 2>Pastor Chad Hovan, Happy New Year, sir. How was your holiday?

0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:21.879
<v Speaker 5>Well, it's pretty good. We had ten services, hung out

0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:24.520
<v Speaker 5>with family, saw a couple of movies, and then gave

0:20:24.560 --> 0:20:27.359
<v Speaker 5>ourselves the flu and we were miserable in bed for

0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:32.359
<v Speaker 5>about five days passing it around. So how it went well?

0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:33.679
<v Speaker 3>I hope everybody is healthy.

0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:37.359
<v Speaker 5>Now we're fighting our way back. We're about it's seventy

0:20:37.640 --> 0:20:39.440
<v Speaker 5>eight probably, okay.

0:20:39.240 --> 0:20:42.080
<v Speaker 3>All right, Well we're thanking and praying for everybody there. Now.

0:20:42.119 --> 0:20:44.240
<v Speaker 2>When when you and I were texting back and forth

0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:47.360
<v Speaker 2>last couple of days, we were thinking, you know, what

0:20:48.560 --> 0:20:50.760
<v Speaker 2>New Year's comes along, A lot of people make New

0:20:50.800 --> 0:20:56.040
<v Speaker 2>Year's resolutions, and I'd given some statistics about seventy nine

0:20:56.119 --> 0:20:59.240
<v Speaker 2>percent of those that make a New Year's resolution making

0:20:59.280 --> 0:21:02.200
<v Speaker 2>New Year's resolue that does with their physical health.

0:21:02.400 --> 0:21:04.159
<v Speaker 3>Right, I'm going to get in better shape, all that

0:21:04.200 --> 0:21:04.640
<v Speaker 3>kind of thing.

0:21:05.040 --> 0:21:06.760
<v Speaker 2>But you and I came up with the idea that

0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:10.920
<v Speaker 2>we're going to basically have a four week series each

0:21:10.960 --> 0:21:12.679
<v Speaker 2>and every Wednesday, starting today.

0:21:12.960 --> 0:21:15.320
<v Speaker 3>And you want to call this series what.

0:21:16.760 --> 0:21:17.639
<v Speaker 5>The me I want to be?

0:21:18.280 --> 0:21:21.200
<v Speaker 3>Okay? The me I want to be? Okay?

0:21:21.520 --> 0:21:24.080
<v Speaker 2>So we're going to head on four different areas in

0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:27.520
<v Speaker 2>each of the next four weeks of maybe where you

0:21:27.560 --> 0:21:30.440
<v Speaker 2>could start. So here's one that we're going to begin

0:21:30.520 --> 0:21:35.120
<v Speaker 2>with today. I'm not too busy. It's just not a priority.

0:21:35.320 --> 0:21:36.160
<v Speaker 2>Let's start there.

0:21:37.680 --> 0:21:39.680
<v Speaker 5>Well, I think again, like you said, at the new

0:21:39.720 --> 0:21:41.280
<v Speaker 5>time of year, we come up with to do lists

0:21:41.320 --> 0:21:43.560
<v Speaker 5>and goals and things we're going to accomplish. But I

0:21:43.640 --> 0:21:45.960
<v Speaker 5>want to propose that there's something that can extend beyond

0:21:45.960 --> 0:21:47.639
<v Speaker 5>that and won't make you depressed in about a month

0:21:47.680 --> 0:21:50.520
<v Speaker 5>because you didn't do it. It's one outlook and it's one inlook.

0:21:50.680 --> 0:21:53.320
<v Speaker 5>And that first one is that we tell ourselves all

0:21:53.320 --> 0:21:55.080
<v Speaker 5>the time, I'm too busy. When's the last time you

0:21:55.119 --> 0:21:57.000
<v Speaker 5>went on a date with your wife. Well, we're so busy.

0:21:57.080 --> 0:22:00.000
<v Speaker 5>When's the last time that you got involved in your hobby.

0:22:00.119 --> 0:22:03.480
<v Speaker 5>I'm too busy. If every time you find yourself saying

0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:06.199
<v Speaker 5>I'm too busy, just swap that and just say this,

0:22:06.400 --> 0:22:09.399
<v Speaker 5>it's not I'm too busy, it's just not a priority.

0:22:10.160 --> 0:22:14.000
<v Speaker 5>That's going to immediately either one affirm your decisions. That's right,

0:22:14.080 --> 0:22:16.960
<v Speaker 5>I'm not doing. For example, my dad gave up fishing

0:22:16.960 --> 0:22:19.199
<v Speaker 5>for many years because he was a young dad and

0:22:19.240 --> 0:22:21.120
<v Speaker 5>he won't be involved as kids and so if you'd

0:22:21.119 --> 0:22:23.720
<v Speaker 5>ask my dad, you know, are you motorcycling these days?

0:22:23.760 --> 0:22:26.040
<v Speaker 5>And are you fishing these days? You'd say nope, I'm

0:22:26.440 --> 0:22:29.000
<v Speaker 5>right now, that's not a priority. Now once we left

0:22:29.000 --> 0:22:31.160
<v Speaker 5>the home, I can't get on my dad's calendar because

0:22:31.160 --> 0:22:34.520
<v Speaker 5>I was fishing. He's a motorcycle drive. But that phrase

0:22:34.600 --> 0:22:36.920
<v Speaker 5>is so helpful. If I told you, when's the last

0:22:36.920 --> 0:22:38.679
<v Speaker 5>time you and your wife and a date, and you said, well,

0:22:38.680 --> 0:22:42.440
<v Speaker 5>we're too busy, isn't a swap? It's not you're too busy. Yeah,

0:22:42.480 --> 0:22:46.760
<v Speaker 5>it's just not a priority. Then you're like, oh, then

0:22:46.840 --> 0:22:48.600
<v Speaker 5>I I don't want that to be true of me.

0:22:48.800 --> 0:22:51.640
<v Speaker 5>I want to rethink what I do because the same

0:22:51.640 --> 0:22:53.480
<v Speaker 5>people who tell you they're too busy will then just

0:22:53.560 --> 0:22:57.280
<v Speaker 5>talk about how they binge watched three Netflix shows sometime

0:22:57.320 --> 0:22:59.520
<v Speaker 5>this week and the staffs and howefin we're on our

0:22:59.560 --> 0:23:02.239
<v Speaker 5>phone and on our iPads. It's pretty shocking. It's not

0:23:02.320 --> 0:23:04.760
<v Speaker 5>this too busy. We all get the same twenty four hours.

0:23:04.960 --> 0:23:06.800
<v Speaker 5>We all get the same number of minutes per day.

0:23:07.119 --> 0:23:09.280
<v Speaker 5>The question is how are you going to invest those

0:23:09.680 --> 0:23:13.600
<v Speaker 5>minutes and those moments to make them matter? And if

0:23:13.640 --> 0:23:15.679
<v Speaker 5>you talk to my Gurbil growing up, he'd say he

0:23:15.760 --> 0:23:17.760
<v Speaker 5>was busy. You know, he's runn wrapped in that wheel

0:23:17.760 --> 0:23:21.159
<v Speaker 5>all day. You're going to fill the time? The question

0:23:21.320 --> 0:23:23.919
<v Speaker 5>is are you filling with things that really matter? And

0:23:24.200 --> 0:23:27.240
<v Speaker 5>every day is a chance for you to inch closer

0:23:27.480 --> 0:23:29.600
<v Speaker 5>to the me you want to be? Instead of saying

0:23:29.600 --> 0:23:32.639
<v Speaker 5>I need to make radical shifts, giant shifts, big changes.

0:23:33.000 --> 0:23:34.840
<v Speaker 5>What are you going to do today to be a

0:23:34.880 --> 0:23:37.280
<v Speaker 5>little more joyful? What are you going to do today

0:23:37.560 --> 0:23:40.560
<v Speaker 5>to move a little closer to your priorities? What do

0:23:40.640 --> 0:23:42.679
<v Speaker 5>you do today that's going to bring a little more

0:23:42.720 --> 0:23:45.600
<v Speaker 5>joy into your life? In fact, I think if you

0:23:45.600 --> 0:23:47.639
<v Speaker 5>think about your life this way, how do I fill

0:23:47.760 --> 0:23:50.680
<v Speaker 5>my life and not just that? How do I fill

0:23:50.800 --> 0:23:55.160
<v Speaker 5>today with things that matter? Just kind of an idea,

0:23:55.440 --> 0:23:59.400
<v Speaker 5>kind of in the sting glass perspective called kronos versus krynos.

0:24:00.000 --> 0:24:02.760
<v Speaker 5>We all get the same amount of kronos, that's chronological time,

0:24:03.480 --> 0:24:06.520
<v Speaker 5>But the really wise person knows how to redeem the time,

0:24:06.800 --> 0:24:11.160
<v Speaker 5>and a person who redeems time changes kronos into krynos,

0:24:11.160 --> 0:24:15.040
<v Speaker 5>which is opportunity. I'm driving in the car and I've

0:24:15.080 --> 0:24:17.040
<v Speaker 5>got my kids around. I'm going to try and take

0:24:17.080 --> 0:24:19.720
<v Speaker 5>this cronos time in the car and just have have

0:24:19.880 --> 0:24:22.879
<v Speaker 5>one meaningful conversation. Yeah, I'm going to try and when

0:24:22.920 --> 0:24:25.560
<v Speaker 5>sitting across for dinner, I'm gonna put my phone down,

0:24:25.720 --> 0:24:29.399
<v Speaker 5>I try and turn this cronos into krynos. And to

0:24:29.520 --> 0:24:31.880
<v Speaker 5>do that, though, you've got to really come against the lie.

0:24:32.160 --> 0:24:34.760
<v Speaker 5>And it's it's it's the plague of our of our culture.

0:24:35.160 --> 0:24:37.520
<v Speaker 5>We all love telling people how busy we are, but

0:24:37.600 --> 0:24:40.480
<v Speaker 5>it's actually partially true, and it's partially a lie to

0:24:40.560 --> 0:24:43.439
<v Speaker 5>disguise why we're not prioritizing the things we know we

0:24:43.480 --> 0:24:44.080
<v Speaker 5>probably should.

0:24:44.200 --> 0:24:47.199
<v Speaker 2>You know, I when you when you talk about, you know,

0:24:47.320 --> 0:24:50.240
<v Speaker 2>replacing that it's not a priority, and you gave the example.

0:24:50.520 --> 0:24:55.400
<v Speaker 2>I mean, when you really start thinking about saying that

0:24:55.600 --> 0:24:59.280
<v Speaker 2>line out loud in a given situation, the one you

0:24:59.280 --> 0:25:01.400
<v Speaker 2>just said about going on a date with your wife,

0:25:01.600 --> 0:25:03.560
<v Speaker 2>you know what, what if all of a sudden, you

0:25:03.600 --> 0:25:06.400
<v Speaker 2>know you I'm just sitting here, you know, thinking out

0:25:06.440 --> 0:25:09.239
<v Speaker 2>loud that a lot of people, Look, they get they

0:25:09.280 --> 0:25:12.160
<v Speaker 2>get pulled hard from work all the time, right, and

0:25:12.200 --> 0:25:13.520
<v Speaker 2>they got to stay longer.

0:25:13.600 --> 0:25:14.359
<v Speaker 3>They got to do this.

0:25:14.760 --> 0:25:17.199
<v Speaker 2>Maybe they're going to miss their kids soccer game or

0:25:17.240 --> 0:25:20.000
<v Speaker 2>their kids recital or whatever. If all of a sudden

0:25:20.040 --> 0:25:23.399
<v Speaker 2>you say, not not just to somebody else, but the

0:25:23.480 --> 0:25:27.800
<v Speaker 2>impact it makes just hearing that, saying it to myself

0:25:28.440 --> 0:25:33.200
<v Speaker 2>that I'm not going to make this a priority getting

0:25:33.200 --> 0:25:35.240
<v Speaker 2>to my kids recital or sporting event.

0:25:35.520 --> 0:25:37.080
<v Speaker 3>Man, that stings a little bit.

0:25:37.000 --> 0:25:39.600
<v Speaker 5>Now, Yeah, but it's a good conviction.

0:25:39.720 --> 0:25:41.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's a very good one. Yes.

0:25:42.320 --> 0:25:44.200
<v Speaker 5>And you want to say, listen, there's plenty of grace,

0:25:44.240 --> 0:25:46.679
<v Speaker 5>and there's plenty of exceptions. Want to say, am I

0:25:46.880 --> 0:25:50.879
<v Speaker 5>characterized meaning more often than not doing the things that

0:25:50.920 --> 0:25:53.720
<v Speaker 5>I prioritize. There's always exceptions, there's always something to happen

0:25:53.840 --> 0:25:57.359
<v Speaker 5>this week. But am I characterized by my priorities? And

0:25:57.880 --> 0:26:00.960
<v Speaker 5>that can happen even in the midst of this real difficulty.

0:26:01.119 --> 0:26:03.480
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I was under the gun five years ago,

0:26:04.000 --> 0:26:06.159
<v Speaker 5>my walk that had two back surgery. I was a

0:26:06.160 --> 0:26:09.560
<v Speaker 5>full time caregiver for here plus my special need son,

0:26:09.640 --> 0:26:13.200
<v Speaker 5>plus I was working full time. It was not ideal circumstances,

0:26:13.600 --> 0:26:15.800
<v Speaker 5>and I was getting resentful and angry, and I had

0:26:15.840 --> 0:26:18.080
<v Speaker 5>thrown everything in the kitchen sink of trying to change

0:26:18.080 --> 0:26:21.159
<v Speaker 5>this circumstance, and for whatever reason, it wasn't going to change.

0:26:21.440 --> 0:26:23.960
<v Speaker 5>I remember getting out my journal and grabbing my pen,

0:26:23.960 --> 0:26:26.360
<v Speaker 5>almost like you're holding a knife, and almost like carving

0:26:26.400 --> 0:26:29.879
<v Speaker 5>the words into the page. I will not be bitter,

0:26:30.920 --> 0:26:32.919
<v Speaker 5>and that stopped me from going in a bad direction.

0:26:33.040 --> 0:26:34.760
<v Speaker 5>And then a couple of weeks later I was able

0:26:34.800 --> 0:26:39.439
<v Speaker 5>to write I will choose joy. And that's the second

0:26:39.480 --> 0:26:44.080
<v Speaker 5>thing is besides changing your priorities and repeating that phrase,

0:26:45.000 --> 0:26:49.560
<v Speaker 5>what if this year you ruthlessly commit to finding joy

0:26:49.600 --> 0:26:53.719
<v Speaker 5>in your current life, even with your problems, even with

0:26:53.760 --> 0:26:57.200
<v Speaker 5>your challenges. Most of us are living lives that are

0:26:57.440 --> 0:27:01.080
<v Speaker 5>envied by the world, that were chased by others, dreamed

0:27:01.119 --> 0:27:04.159
<v Speaker 5>about by kings. I mean, we have air conditioning, we

0:27:04.600 --> 0:27:07.200
<v Speaker 5>actually have some money in our pockets, we can actually

0:27:07.320 --> 0:27:11.440
<v Speaker 5>choose where we might eat today. These are enviable, prayed about,

0:27:11.600 --> 0:27:14.879
<v Speaker 5>dreamed about goals that most people in the world have

0:27:15.080 --> 0:27:17.639
<v Speaker 5>longed for. And if you've never been on a mission

0:27:17.640 --> 0:27:20.159
<v Speaker 5>trip or been on a third world country, everyone that

0:27:20.200 --> 0:27:22.439
<v Speaker 5>goes on once says the same thing. I go down

0:27:22.520 --> 0:27:25.240
<v Speaker 5>to people who have so little, and I'm amazed at

0:27:25.320 --> 0:27:29.159
<v Speaker 5>how they can ruthlessly find joy in their current life.

0:27:29.880 --> 0:27:31.040
<v Speaker 3>What if all of us did that.

0:27:31.480 --> 0:27:33.040
<v Speaker 5>We all have things we want to tweak, things we

0:27:33.119 --> 0:27:35.040
<v Speaker 5>want to change things. We wish we could make better

0:27:36.080 --> 0:27:40.199
<v Speaker 5>work on that, but you're as happy now as you

0:27:40.280 --> 0:27:43.159
<v Speaker 5>choose to be. And if you can't be happy in

0:27:43.160 --> 0:27:46.520
<v Speaker 5>this circumstance, I promise you you probably won't be happy

0:27:46.560 --> 0:27:47.000
<v Speaker 5>in the next er.

0:27:47.160 --> 0:27:49.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's right, that's right, because you're always playing that

0:27:49.920 --> 0:27:51.720
<v Speaker 2>keep up with the Joneses kind of thing. And we

0:27:51.840 --> 0:27:55.120
<v Speaker 2>talked about you know that from time to time. Let

0:27:55.119 --> 0:27:56.880
<v Speaker 2>me let me walk you back for a second, when

0:27:56.880 --> 0:27:59.800
<v Speaker 2>you talked about that timeframe that you went through. Okay,

0:28:00.080 --> 0:28:02.120
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden, you know, you're going through these

0:28:02.200 --> 0:28:05.520
<v Speaker 2>really tough times and there's only enough chronos time in

0:28:05.560 --> 0:28:09.639
<v Speaker 2>the day. Correct to give me an example or people

0:28:09.640 --> 0:28:12.119
<v Speaker 2>out there listening an example chat if you wouldn't mind

0:28:12.560 --> 0:28:17.480
<v Speaker 2>of something that you thought you couldn't give up, right,

0:28:18.000 --> 0:28:21.560
<v Speaker 2>and that once you said to yourself, no, this thing

0:28:21.600 --> 0:28:24.080
<v Speaker 2>with my wife or this thing with our son, whatever

0:28:24.080 --> 0:28:26.920
<v Speaker 2>it might be, that's going to be the priority today.

0:28:27.680 --> 0:28:30.600
<v Speaker 2>And maybe something you thought, boy, there's no way I

0:28:30.640 --> 0:28:34.080
<v Speaker 2>can walk away from this other thing. But then once

0:28:34.119 --> 0:28:36.879
<v Speaker 2>you did it, you realized it wasn't the end of

0:28:36.920 --> 0:28:37.359
<v Speaker 2>the world.

0:28:38.880 --> 0:28:42.720
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, well, i'd say eternally for me internally, rather one

0:28:42.760 --> 0:28:45.800
<v Speaker 5>of my biggest priorities is independence. And so the fact

0:28:45.800 --> 0:28:49.480
<v Speaker 5>that I was basically handcuffed to my house, handcuffed to caregiving,

0:28:49.960 --> 0:28:52.720
<v Speaker 5>and again, yes, I want to serve, but it really

0:28:52.760 --> 0:28:55.080
<v Speaker 5>came against a core value of mind, which is independence.

0:28:55.560 --> 0:28:57.800
<v Speaker 5>And so I really had to wrestle with that, which

0:28:57.840 --> 0:29:00.840
<v Speaker 5>is in my desire to serve, need to serve out

0:29:01.240 --> 0:29:03.680
<v Speaker 5>wanting to have the priority is serving. I could feel

0:29:03.720 --> 0:29:06.280
<v Speaker 5>that tension like almost a rat caught in a trap,

0:29:06.600 --> 0:29:09.040
<v Speaker 5>which is like I just I just felt that, and

0:29:09.120 --> 0:29:13.160
<v Speaker 5>I had to say, this feels permanent. It's not permanent.

0:29:14.080 --> 0:29:17.040
<v Speaker 5>This is a season, and it's gonna be a hard season.

0:29:17.320 --> 0:29:19.680
<v Speaker 5>I don't even know. I'm not gonna say an arbitrary deadline.

0:29:19.680 --> 0:29:20.840
<v Speaker 5>I'd like it to be a week. It might be

0:29:20.840 --> 0:29:23.200
<v Speaker 5>a month, it might be a year. But it's a season.

0:29:23.240 --> 0:29:26.440
<v Speaker 5>So during this season, I need to change my mindset

0:29:26.560 --> 0:29:28.800
<v Speaker 5>and so I am not going to have the flexibility

0:29:28.800 --> 0:29:31.160
<v Speaker 5>that I had. And even when you know, we adopted

0:29:31.200 --> 0:29:33.480
<v Speaker 5>my son, you know, and found out he had special needs,

0:29:33.520 --> 0:29:35.960
<v Speaker 5>it was an eighty year season, which is I need

0:29:35.960 --> 0:29:39.160
<v Speaker 5>to adjust my expectations, which is all right. I had

0:29:39.200 --> 0:29:41.920
<v Speaker 5>expected a B and C and now I need to

0:29:41.920 --> 0:29:44.120
<v Speaker 5>say and thought joy only came from A, B and C.

0:29:44.680 --> 0:29:46.240
<v Speaker 5>Now I need to say it's gonna look like D,

0:29:46.320 --> 0:29:48.760
<v Speaker 5>E and F. But D and E and F. Though different,

0:29:48.920 --> 0:29:51.800
<v Speaker 5>doesn't mean I can't experience joy. It doesn't mean I

0:29:51.840 --> 0:29:55.160
<v Speaker 5>can't have a fulfilled life. It's just different. And for

0:29:55.240 --> 0:29:58.560
<v Speaker 5>many of us, we're so living for the expectation. Once

0:29:58.600 --> 0:30:00.840
<v Speaker 5>I get that degree, if only I had two houses,

0:30:00.880 --> 0:30:03.600
<v Speaker 5>if only I got that special vacation, if only I

0:30:03.640 --> 0:30:07.440
<v Speaker 5>get that job, and we have delayed joy. We have

0:30:07.600 --> 0:30:10.560
<v Speaker 5>we have pushed joy ahead of ourselves into some other

0:30:10.640 --> 0:30:14.800
<v Speaker 5>circumstance versus all right, right now, I've got to manage

0:30:14.840 --> 0:30:18.680
<v Speaker 5>my expectations and realize this expectation that I thought was

0:30:18.720 --> 0:30:20.960
<v Speaker 5>the end all I was the only way I could

0:30:20.960 --> 0:30:23.960
<v Speaker 5>find joy and happiness and gratitude. I began to say,

0:30:24.000 --> 0:30:26.080
<v Speaker 5>what can I in the next twenty four hours be

0:30:26.160 --> 0:30:29.720
<v Speaker 5>grateful about? Where can I take this not as a resentful,

0:30:29.800 --> 0:30:34.080
<v Speaker 5>obligatory duty bound serving, but how can I joyfully serve?

0:30:34.680 --> 0:30:36.640
<v Speaker 5>And maybe I can't have enough energy to think about

0:30:36.720 --> 0:30:39.280
<v Speaker 5>joyfully serving for a week. I can think about what

0:30:39.320 --> 0:30:40.320
<v Speaker 5>I can do in the next hour.

0:30:40.600 --> 0:30:43.440
<v Speaker 3>You know what I had year. You know I forgive

0:30:43.440 --> 0:30:44.040
<v Speaker 3>me for erupting.

0:30:44.080 --> 0:30:45.920
<v Speaker 2>You know, you know, something that sort of hit me

0:30:45.960 --> 0:30:48.600
<v Speaker 2>a couple of days ago, and I'm curious about how

0:30:49.000 --> 0:30:53.240
<v Speaker 2>how you would address this. I find sometimes that when

0:30:53.360 --> 0:30:56.720
<v Speaker 2>I put myself in that frame of mind, and I

0:30:56.800 --> 0:30:58.080
<v Speaker 2>try to do it a lot, because I have a

0:30:58.120 --> 0:31:02.760
<v Speaker 2>tendency to start going dark. Okay, and maybe not dark's

0:31:02.760 --> 0:31:06.120
<v Speaker 2>maybe the wrong word, just not being as appreciative of

0:31:06.240 --> 0:31:10.360
<v Speaker 2>things that I have as I should be. But then

0:31:10.400 --> 0:31:14.160
<v Speaker 2>you start getting around, whether it's co workers, maybe it's

0:31:14.200 --> 0:31:17.920
<v Speaker 2>even your family, okay, where this kind of attitude has

0:31:17.960 --> 0:31:20.960
<v Speaker 2>been around you for so long that those you spend

0:31:20.960 --> 0:31:23.280
<v Speaker 2>a lot of time, well, let's say your family. Maybe

0:31:23.320 --> 0:31:25.400
<v Speaker 2>you're walking in the house and you want to walk

0:31:25.440 --> 0:31:28.560
<v Speaker 2>in with a sense of joy and with peace and happiness,

0:31:28.840 --> 0:31:30.600
<v Speaker 2>and then all of a sudden, those in the house

0:31:30.880 --> 0:31:33.280
<v Speaker 2>they're not used to that kind of thing, and they're

0:31:33.320 --> 0:31:34.480
<v Speaker 2>not there yet either.

0:31:34.520 --> 0:31:35.360
<v Speaker 3>Does that make sense?

0:31:36.200 --> 0:31:39.280
<v Speaker 5>Oh yeah, yeah, it's like Dad, what happened to you?

0:31:39.480 --> 0:31:40.000
<v Speaker 3>Right? Right?

0:31:40.040 --> 0:31:43.040
<v Speaker 5>But I want to be this is me we've never seen.

0:31:44.040 --> 0:31:46.080
<v Speaker 5>But I think over time you go, oh, this is different.

0:31:46.200 --> 0:31:49.760
<v Speaker 5>And honestly, have you ever been around yourself when you're negative?

0:31:49.840 --> 0:31:51.960
<v Speaker 5>Or are the people in they're negative? Yeah, there's kind

0:31:51.960 --> 0:31:54.360
<v Speaker 5>of this glue. It's almost like gossip. You're kind of

0:31:54.440 --> 0:31:57.200
<v Speaker 5>drawn into kind of negativity and the nihilism, but it's

0:31:57.240 --> 0:31:59.760
<v Speaker 5>pretty quickly hopeless and doesn't give a lot of joy,

0:32:00.880 --> 0:32:02.640
<v Speaker 5>and at some point you've got to get sick of it.

0:32:02.720 --> 0:32:04.320
<v Speaker 5>You're going to say, you know what, this is just

0:32:04.560 --> 0:32:07.640
<v Speaker 5>so not life giving. And I don't know if you're

0:32:07.800 --> 0:32:10.280
<v Speaker 5>into treasure hunters, but I love treasure hunting type of stuff,

0:32:10.320 --> 0:32:11.880
<v Speaker 5>whether it's like you know, the TV shows like The

0:32:11.920 --> 0:32:15.080
<v Speaker 5>Goony's Grown Up for the Movie's National Treasure, or you know,

0:32:15.080 --> 0:32:18.000
<v Speaker 5>occasionally I try and watch Chris of Oak Island, although

0:32:18.000 --> 0:32:20.480
<v Speaker 5>I've given up after ten years. They've done anything. But

0:32:20.840 --> 0:32:23.920
<v Speaker 5>what if I told you that the next twenty four

0:32:23.920 --> 0:32:27.280
<v Speaker 5>hours your life is filled with treasures that you need

0:32:27.320 --> 0:32:30.480
<v Speaker 5>to discover, and you want to look at your life

0:32:30.520 --> 0:32:32.520
<v Speaker 5>like a treasure hunter and say, there's going to be

0:32:32.560 --> 0:32:34.760
<v Speaker 5>something to be grateful that's going to happen today in

0:32:34.760 --> 0:32:37.480
<v Speaker 5>a conversation with your colleague. There's going to be somebody

0:32:37.480 --> 0:32:39.600
<v Speaker 5>you come in contact with who's got some way that

0:32:39.680 --> 0:32:41.720
<v Speaker 5>you can listen to them and it's going to really

0:32:41.760 --> 0:32:44.680
<v Speaker 5>make them feel heard. If you begin to look at

0:32:44.680 --> 0:32:48.200
<v Speaker 5>your life as there are hidden treasures to appreciate, to

0:32:48.240 --> 0:32:51.680
<v Speaker 5>be grateful for, to find. I think people are going

0:32:51.760 --> 0:32:54.680
<v Speaker 5>to notice because when you get around people who are negative,

0:32:54.840 --> 0:32:55.880
<v Speaker 5>it sucks the.

0:32:55.920 --> 0:32:59.040
<v Speaker 3>Life, no doubt about it, and ourselves too.

0:32:59.000 --> 0:33:01.360
<v Speaker 2>Right, Yes, yes, guilty of charge.

0:33:01.400 --> 0:33:03.840
<v Speaker 5>You ever want to hang out with Mike seal up today?

0:33:04.080 --> 0:33:06.080
<v Speaker 5>Guess what the rest of the stone either. But what

0:33:06.120 --> 0:33:09.080
<v Speaker 5>if I you take your eyes off yourself? Right instead

0:33:09.120 --> 0:33:11.240
<v Speaker 5>of saying but I'm feeling down, I'm feeling depressed, walk

0:33:11.280 --> 0:33:13.600
<v Speaker 5>into a room and say, how can I lift someone

0:33:13.600 --> 0:33:16.480
<v Speaker 5>else up? And the irony is one of the greatest

0:33:16.520 --> 0:33:18.360
<v Speaker 5>way to get out of depression is put your eyes

0:33:18.360 --> 0:33:21.000
<v Speaker 5>on someone else. So I think that's what I encourage

0:33:21.000 --> 0:33:23.200
<v Speaker 5>is to think of the new year two things, ruthlessly

0:33:23.200 --> 0:33:26.400
<v Speaker 5>commit to find, join your current life, and then radically

0:33:26.520 --> 0:33:29.560
<v Speaker 5>change your priorities by just repeating that one praise. It's

0:33:29.600 --> 0:33:32.240
<v Speaker 5>not that I'm too busy, it's just not a priority,

0:33:32.600 --> 0:33:35.040
<v Speaker 5>and then inch closer. I used to tell folks that

0:33:35.120 --> 0:33:37.840
<v Speaker 5>three times three times three is twenty seven, but four

0:33:37.840 --> 0:33:40.400
<v Speaker 5>times four times four sixty four. If you want to

0:33:40.440 --> 0:33:42.760
<v Speaker 5>improve your life this year from a twenty seven to

0:33:42.760 --> 0:33:46.040
<v Speaker 5>a sixty four, double your joy, double your impact of

0:33:46.080 --> 0:33:49.280
<v Speaker 5>your marriage. All you have to do is take three

0:33:49.320 --> 0:33:51.560
<v Speaker 5>areas of your life and just tweak them. Not from

0:33:51.560 --> 0:33:53.600
<v Speaker 5>a three to a ten, just get a little bit

0:33:53.600 --> 0:33:56.200
<v Speaker 5>more joyful. Move from a three to a four tomorrow.

0:33:56.200 --> 0:33:57.479
<v Speaker 5>I want you to be a little bit more grateful.

0:33:57.480 --> 0:33:59.320
<v Speaker 5>From a three to four. I want you to think

0:33:59.320 --> 0:34:01.400
<v Speaker 5>about other people ahead of yourself A three to a four.

0:34:01.720 --> 0:34:04.960
<v Speaker 5>The cumulus impact of tweaking three areas of your life

0:34:05.280 --> 0:34:06.800
<v Speaker 5>is that you'll move from a twenty seven to a

0:34:06.880 --> 0:34:09.560
<v Speaker 5>sixty four and the impact of your overal health. And

0:34:09.600 --> 0:34:13.320
<v Speaker 5>then chase your goals. I love goals. Monitor your goals,

0:34:13.360 --> 0:34:16.600
<v Speaker 5>track your goals. But while you're doing it, don't delay

0:34:16.800 --> 0:34:18.799
<v Speaker 5>joy until you get to the goals.

0:34:19.239 --> 0:34:20.440
<v Speaker 3>That is great stuff.

0:34:20.640 --> 0:34:23.560
<v Speaker 2>I love the start of this series and look forward

0:34:23.600 --> 0:34:26.680
<v Speaker 2>to two, three, and four in the weeks to come. Chad,

0:34:26.760 --> 0:34:28.960
<v Speaker 2>thanks so much for your time. This was this just

0:34:28.960 --> 0:34:30.440
<v Speaker 2>great stuff. I hope you have a great rest of

0:34:30.480 --> 0:34:30.839
<v Speaker 2>your day.

0:34:31.680 --> 0:34:32.719
<v Speaker 5>Thanks so much. Stuck soon.

0:34:32.840 --> 0:34:34.400
<v Speaker 3>I tell you what. Let's see that advice.

0:34:34.719 --> 0:34:37.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean when you think of it, when he breaks

0:34:37.320 --> 0:34:40.840
<v Speaker 2>it down like that, A three to a four, just
