The proposal will 8 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,119 Speaker 3: allow carmakers to slow down the rollout of electric vehicles 9 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 3: in Europe and will lower the requirements that would have 10 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 3: halted sales of new gasoline and diesel fueled cars starting 11 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:32,560 Speaker 3: in twenty thirty five. 12 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 2: All right, Meanwhile, while most people would like to work 13 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,160 Speaker 2: a little bit less, I think everybody could probably agree 14 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 2: on that, if agree on very little.

Thanks for having me. 39 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 2: Absolutely Hey, I want to get into look, before we 40 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 2: get into this healthcare bill that you have proposed, a 41 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: couple of questions that I think try to break it 42 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: down to one oh one level. The first question I have, 43 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 2: and there, of course, the government shut down primarily on 44 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 2: the Democrat side, centered around healthcare Obamacare, subsidies, et cetera, 45 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 2: et cetera, is the healthcare business, and you are a 46 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 2: medical doctor. As everyone probably knows, is this thing almost 47 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: too big to fail? Senator, that it's gotten so big 48 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 2: that we don't have the stomach to try and overhaul it. 49 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 2: Because one of my best friends is a doctor, goes 50 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: right down the street from me, and he tells me, 51 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 2: this whole thing is an absolute mess. 52 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 5: It's certainly broken, and I think we have to examine 53 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 5: why it's broken. So we have to examine what works 54 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 5: in our country, what doesn't work most everything. Capitalism keeps 55 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 5: prices down, Competition works. The two areas that competition and 56 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 5: capitalism don't seem to be working well in our health 57 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 5: care and education. But what they have in common is 58 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 5: that government subsidizes. And so when you subsidize something, basically 59 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 5: you increase the demand and you raise the price for that. 60 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 5: So as we've tried to give people money for help insurance, 61 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 5: the price just keeps rising higher and higher. The more 62 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 5: we give people, the more it rises. The second thing 63 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 5: we have to decide is as a society, or we're 64 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 5: going to take care of the poor among us who 65 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 5: can't get help insurance. Well, I think we've decided to 66 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 5: do that. But then the next question is is someone 67 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 5: making one hundred thousand dollars a year poor or is 68 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 5: someone making two hundred thousand dollars a year poor. So, 69 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 5: under the Obamacare subsidies, if you make one hundred thousand 70 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 5: dollars a year, you get thirteen thousand dollars in subsidies. Well, 71 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 5: most people I know think making one hundred thousand dollars 72 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 5: a year is not bad. Making two hundred thousand dollars 73 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 5: a years is certainly not bad. And you still get 74 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 5: about two thousand dollars at two hundred thousand. So we 75 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 5: just have to assess whether that society is responsibility or not. 76 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 5: And that is one question. The second question is how 77 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 5: do you get prices down? Instead of just giving people 78 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 5: money which bids the prices up, how do you bid 79 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 5: the prices down? And I think what you have to 80 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 5: do is allow people to bid together as a collective 81 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 5: or as a co op. So my bill would allow 82 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 5: people to get together and buy their insurance, like to 83 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 5: a costco or a Sam's Club or an Amazon. So 84 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 5: let's say you had a couple million people that bought 85 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 5: their insurance on Amazon. What would happen is one person 86 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 5: at Amazon would negotiate a group contract for all a 87 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 5: couple of million people. They would then be the largest 88 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 5: business entity in the country negotiating for insurance. They would 89 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 5: have the most leverage and they would get better insurance 90 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 5: than any big corporation would get in America. And then 91 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 5: the hope is that that size would give them market 92 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 5: power visa the insurance company, because the insurance companies, you know, 93 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 5: are enormous. And if you're an accountant with two employees 94 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 5: and you go buy insurance, it's take you to leave it. 95 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 5: But if you've got it through Amazon and they had 96 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 5: one person or through cost Cover, Sam's Club, one person 97 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 5: negotiating from millions would have probably the ability to sit 98 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 5: down with the CEO of the company and really negotiate 99 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,919 Speaker 5: good prices. All this takes legalized. It didn't cost any money. 100 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,559 Speaker 5: That's why it's not real popular yet in Washington because 101 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 5: it doesn't cost anything. Ex have to legalize it and 102 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 5: let it happen. 103 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: All right, you have introduced what is called the health 104 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 2: marketplace and savings accounts for all act Now let's start 105 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 2: with the primary you know, backbone of this has to 106 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 2: do with HSA's health savings accounts. For people who are wondering, 107 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 2: you're speaking another language, what is a health savings account? 108 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 5: Well, only about ten percent of people have insurance are 109 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 5: eligible by the law. And so what you do is 110 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 5: you save your money and you don't have to pay 111 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 5: taxes on it. So if I put two thousand dollars 112 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 5: in my health savings account, that's subtracted for my income, 113 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 5: and I don't have to pay taxes on the two 114 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 5: thousand nor when I spend it. And so you know, 115 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 5: I have three kids. We had to put braces on 116 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,479 Speaker 5: all of them, but I got to pay for it 117 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 5: with pre tax money. If you don't have a health 118 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 5: savings account or any kind of medical savings account, you 119 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 5: end up paying with after tax money, which is, you know, 120 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 5: quite a burden. So my bill would say that would 121 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 5: change the law once again, and would say anybody who 122 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 5: wants to l savan's account and get it, they get 123 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 5: your own money in it. But the thing is is 124 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 5: that if you're a wise saveror then you save your money, 125 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 5: and particularly if you save your money and you don't 126 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 5: get sick. Let's say you're twenty years old and you 127 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 5: get a two thousand dollars deductible and you don't get sick, well, 128 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 5: you put two thousand dollars away. Then the next year 129 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 5: maybe you get a four thousand dollar deductible. You don't 130 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 5: get sick again, then maybe you get a six thousand. 131 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 5: So if you're a wise saver and you don't get sick, 132 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 5: which really the insurance companies know this, ninety eight percent 133 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 5: of people don't get sick, but they're all paying enormous 134 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 5: amounts for insurance, not to insuran against illness, they're prepaying 135 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 5: health care. And so if you actually went back to 136 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 5: having an insurance model like term life insurance when you're 137 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 5: twenty years old, for a five hundred bucks, you can 138 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 5: get five hundred thousand, you know. So the thing is 139 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 5: is what we need to do is make health insurance 140 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 5: like term life insurance, where you're bearing more of the 141 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 5: cost out of a savings account and then you get 142 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 5: a relatively low premium with a higher deductible, and you 143 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 5: try to get a higher deductible every year if you're healthy. 144 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 5: And the vast majority of people are healthy. So there 145 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 5: are ways we could fix this. But instead of going 146 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 5: towards capitalism, most people in Washington, including May of the 147 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 5: Republicans just want to give people money. I mean they 148 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 5: want to give people money for their HSA. They also 149 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 5: want to give money for these Trump children accounts. And 150 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 5: it's like, where's the money coming from. We're two trillion 151 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 5: dollars short, and even the Republicans are wanting to give 152 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 5: you money, just in a different way than the Democrats do. 153 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: What am I supposed to believe? 154 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 2: I jump on any website here, Senator Paul and I 155 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 2: read a report about Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, 156 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 2: and about a Republican healthcare bill lowers Obamacare premiums by 157 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 2: twelve percent, saving thirty billion. You've got Bill Cassidy going 158 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 2: on new shows over the weekend saying a deal could 159 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 2: be made on Obamacare subsidies by the end of the year. 160 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 2: You've got your proposal out there in many ways, walking 161 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 2: hand in hand with some of these things. At the 162 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: end of the day, what gets done, does anything get done? 163 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 2: And when does it get done? 164 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 5: So there are two alternatives. The Democrats gout their way. 165 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 5: You just get Obamacare, which means they keep giving you 166 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 5: more and more money, but the premiums will keep going up, 167 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 5: and the deductles go up, and really nothing gets better. 168 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 5: The main Republican plan, Cassidy and others. They want to 169 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 5: give you money also, but they want to give you 170 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 5: and it's somebody else's money where it's printed money, but 171 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 5: they want you to put that money in your health 172 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 5: savings account. But they're still willing to give you money. 173 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 5: And so I just am not for a new that. 174 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 5: I'm for the marketplace. I'm trying to get capitalism do 175 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 5: or the same way the price of your TV comes 176 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 5: down looking MRIs sophisticated equipment, the wor computers and iPhones. 177 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 5: You know is why do the price of computer conzones 178 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 5: come down? Because there's a because capitalism works. So all 179 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 5: you have to do is allow capitalism work. You have 180 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 5: to believe in what made our country great, which is freedom, 181 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 5: voluntary exchange, and let it work. Instead, everybody's like, oh well, 182 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 5: le's maybe we've got insurance and so it'spensive. You know 183 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 5: that cars are expensive. Why don't we give people money 184 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 5: to buy cars. Let's have a a Trump Car account 185 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 5: and give everybody money in it to buy a car. 186 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 5: We don't have that money, and that feeds the problem. 187 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 5: So if you're two trillion in the hole, and I 188 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 5: give you money for your health savings account. Where did 189 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 5: it come from? The FED prints it up and so 190 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 5: once you get it, within about a year, it loses 191 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 5: its value. And this is this whole affordability thing everybody's 192 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 5: talking about. The reason things are less supportable is prices 193 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 5: have gone up twenty five percent in the last five years, 194 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 5: and if your wages didn't call up twenty five percent, 195 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 5: you're being squeezed. That's the affordability squeeze right now. But 196 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 5: it's due to promising people something for nothing. Hey, here's 197 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 5: a free car, here's free education, here's here's subsidized healthcare. 198 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 5: What sounds good on the service, but the end result 199 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 5: is rising prices, reduced purchasing power, and people feel that 200 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 5: they've been squeezed. 201 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 2: I want to hit a couple of other topics before 202 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,319 Speaker 2: we let you get out of here. I know your 203 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 2: time is tight. What are your thoughts about the direction 204 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 2: that the administration is going about vaccines at this point? 205 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,559 Speaker 2: I mean, there's been a lot of talk. Redfield came 206 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 2: out and talked about he thought that the Murner vaccine, 207 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 2: among others, were bad. There's talk about this measles vaccine, 208 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 2: all kinds of talk about vaccines. Some people, of course, 209 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 2: want to run Robert F. Kennedy Junior out of town. 210 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 2: You have been extremely thoughtful I think about this topic, 211 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 2: although some may not agree with you. Where do you 212 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: think all of this stands? Do you like the direction 213 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,079 Speaker 2: it's going in or not so much? 214 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 5: I think all healthcare should be individualized, So each individual 215 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 5: should make their decisions based on the risks and the 216 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 5: benefits to them. Can depend on your age. When COVID 217 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 5: came out, we found out that elderly people died and 218 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 5: young people didn't, and so really you should have different 219 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 5: policy based on them, and you should look at the 220 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 5: risks and benefit and so I'm not anti vaccine. I'm 221 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,319 Speaker 5: for looking at each one individually. One of the extraordinary 222 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 5: things that came out recently and discussing the hepatitis B vaccine, 223 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 5: whether it should be forced on people on day one 224 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 5: of birth, whether people can wait, is they said they 225 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 5: were going to let the decision make and be individually based. 226 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 5: And you heard this uproar from the establishment. I'm like, 227 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 5: they're just saying they're restating what it always should have been, 228 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 5: individually based. But so, for example, the COVID vaccine. What 229 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 5: I would say is, this is in March of twenty twenty, 230 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 5: when it was rip roaring and you were seeing people die, 231 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 5: primarily people over seventy five, but some over sixty five, 232 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 5: some overweight at fifty five, and so at that time, 233 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 5: I think the better part of valor it looked like 234 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 5: there's some evidence and probably still is true at that 235 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 5: period of time produced hospitals that should in death didn't 236 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 5: stop transmission. If you were older and at risk, probably 237 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 5: take it. But if you were fifteen years old and 238 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 5: there was also evidence that you could get an information 239 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 5: of the heart, there have been some deaths described. I 240 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 5: do believe they did happen. The risk didn't exceed the benefit. 241 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 5: The risk actually exceeded the benefits, and a fifteen year 242 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 5: old should have never been offered it. But this is 243 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 5: where Anthony Fuci and the government planners that are in healthcare, 244 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 5: they just want everybody to submit. Just do as you're told. 245 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 5: It's to be too complicated. We let you think about 246 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 5: whether it was good for you. Everybody should just be 247 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 5: forced to submit. And that's why vaccine policy has been 248 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 5: in our country. And I do think that Kennedy's done 249 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 5: a good job and trying to make it more individualized. Look, 250 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 5: the HEPTI vaccine, don't I'm not saying it's bad for 251 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 5: your kid at all, but I'm saying if you want 252 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 5: to wait a while, it might be up and ought 253 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 5: to be up to you, and that the only medical 254 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 5: reason to take it at birth is that the mom 255 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 5: has epatitis B. And if you don't have hepatitis by test, 256 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 5: all the moms in America. Now, when you've come to 257 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 5: the hospital they ask you, there's no reason to take 258 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 5: it now. They only moved the recommendation back in two months. 259 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 5: I would have moved it back even further because the 260 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 5: thing is, it wears off. If you vaccinate your kid 261 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 5: for repetize to be at perth, it wears off. I'm 262 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 5: there ten or twelve when they might be getting closer 263 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 5: to an age where sex, drugs and rock and roll 264 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 5: might influence their ability to get appetitis B. But there's 265 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 5: so much of this is wrong just because the government 266 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 5: mandates submission instead of thinking about individualizing the risk and benefit. 267 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 2: Senator Paul I can't thank you enough for your time. 268 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 2: As always, we love having you on the program. And 269 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 2: if we don't talk to you before Christmas. I hope 270 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 2: you and your family have a merry Christmas. 271 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 5: Same to you guys, Merry Christmas. 272 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 2: All right, thank you very much. A twenty two great 273 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 2: to have Senator Paul. He is a regular on the program. 274 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 2: We're fortunate to have him, and you know, I look, 275 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 2: you may not agree with all his policies, but the 276 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 2: guy is no nonsense. He thinks things through. He doesn't 277 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 2: go along with the crowd, and that's on both sides. 278 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 2: He doesn't go along with the crowd on the left, 279 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 2: he doesn't always go around with the crowd on the right. 280 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 2: He is an independent thinker and it's refreshing to have 281 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 2: in Washington, DC. 282 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: To pay attention. 283 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: This is the Bloomberg money minute on seven hundred WLW. 284 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 6: This is a Bloomberg money minute. Ford has struggled for 285 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 6: years to make its electric vehicle business profitable. Now the 286 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 6: automaker will take a nineteen and a half billion dollar 287 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 6: hit tied to a sweeping overhaul of that business. As 288 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 6: part of the strategic shift, the automaker is canceling a 289 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 6: planned electric F series truck, shifting production toward gas and 290 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 6: hybrid vehicles, and repurposing an EVY battery plant investors are 291 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 6: getting a closer look at the health of the labor 292 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 6: market as the government releases the jobs report for November 293 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 6: this morning. The data was delayed due to the shutdown 294 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 6: in Washington. Stock futures are edging lower, and a chip 295 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 6: crunch is expected to curb smart phone output. Next year, 296 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 6: global smartphone shipments may decline more than two percent as 297 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 6: a shortage of memory chips drives up costs and squeezes production. 298 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 6: That's according to industry tracker Counterpoint Research. Meantime, the average 299 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 6: selling price for handsets is set to rise close to 300 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 6: seven percent in twenty twenty six. Cortney's on a Hope 301 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 6: Bloomberg Radio. 302 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 2: All right, eight forty one on the morning show. You're 303 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 2: on seven hundred WLW, the nation station, and she's known 304 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 2: coast to coast. You're the Cincinnati yourself, but she's known 305 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 2: in parts all over the globe. We have her every 306 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 2: Tuesday to talk about what's good for you and me 307 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 2: and maybe ways to handle especially this holiday season. Julius Fording, good. 308 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 7: Morning, Good morning Tom. 309 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 2: The constant battle and it is their non stop family gatherings. 310 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 2: There is social pressure and it's all built around food. 311 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 2: More times than not right? How much should I eat? 312 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 2: Should I back off? I mean, it's non stop, even 313 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 2: to the point I was thinking about this after you 314 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 2: texted me yesterday. I noticed in our house. You know, 315 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 2: people will drop off something at your front door, right, 316 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 2: some kind of dessert for the holidays. And the next 317 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 2: thing I know, I never eat dessert at night. And 318 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 2: the next thing I know, I'm reaching in those bags 319 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 2: every time I turn around. 320 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: Can you help me say? 321 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 4: No? It's called food noise, and it's in our lives 322 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 4: every single day of our lives. 323 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 7: Anyway. 324 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 4: You know, it's like, oh should I have that? And 325 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 4: you fit, well, how about if you you finish the 326 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 4: meal and you're already thinking about your next meal, or 327 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 4: you have this battle with well should I have that 328 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 4: or not? 329 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 7: Well, then I'll feel guilty. Well I'll be good tomorrow, 330 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 7: I promise. 331 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 4: But all that noise gets louder during the holidays because 332 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 4: there is way more food around. 333 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 7: Of course. 334 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, just like you said, they drop it off 335 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 4: and you act as if this food you'll never see again. Oh, 336 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 4: this only happens once a year. I better enjoy this now. 337 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 4: I'll get back on track in January. Can you hear 338 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 4: your mind just chattering about it. And then there's way 339 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 4: more like emotions during the holidays. You've got old memories, 340 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 4: you've got all the pressures of getting to parties, getting home, 341 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 4: and you're not sleeping as well because you have more 342 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 4: parties to go to and there's way more temptations. 343 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 7: You have to fight. 344 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, so it gets exhausting. So it's life gets louder. 345 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 7: Food, noise gets louder. 346 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 4: Doesn't mean you're just human, it's just the way the 347 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 4: brain works. And also you mentioned all the goodies, like, 348 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 4: it's not it's not like the bad food is hanging around. 349 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 4: It's not like someone delivered more carrots. 350 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: No kidding. 351 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 2: If they did, I would, I would, They would be 352 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 2: out of my life forever. 353 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 4: Right. They deliver those really good cookies that you only 354 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 4: get once a year from Buskin Bakery. 355 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 7: I'm with you. I love it. 356 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 4: They're nostalgic. It's emotional. So what you have to do 357 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 4: is the big question. And I think it's individual for everyone. 358 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 4: But since routine disappears, you're going to more parties, you're around. 359 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 7: More people, You've got the kids home. 360 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 4: You've got so many family dynamics going on, you've. 361 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 7: Got work, parties, You've got all that stuff going on. 362 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 4: I think some of the first things you have to 363 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 4: do is somehow get you know. 364 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 7: Go back to the basics. 365 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 4: Be sure you're sleep you know, getting good sleep. Be 366 00:18:54,560 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 4: sure you're exercising, and you know, those basic things. The 367 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 4: other thing you have to realize is do not get 368 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 4: into that now. 369 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 7: We're never mindset. 370 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 4: You know those cookies that are delivered and you think I'll. 371 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 7: Never get these again, Well you know what you will. 372 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 7: I mean back, you know in March, You'll still be 373 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 7: able to eat cookies. It'll be okay. You know, It's 374 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 7: not like I better hurry up and eat them now. 375 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 7: The other thing, too, is when you're full, you're full. 376 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 7: If you can sort of. 377 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 4: Get to a point where it's not like you make rules, 378 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:36,360 Speaker 4: but you say, listen, I'm gonna just try to maintain 379 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 4: as much routine as normal. 380 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 7: So let's say if you. 381 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 4: Go for that big celebratory. 382 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 7: Dinner out, you know, once a year, you. 383 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 4: Go with your family and you're full, and here comes 384 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 4: the dessert tray. Well, is there a way you could 385 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,959 Speaker 4: skip the dessert or package it to go. You know, 386 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 4: it's not like it's not a once in a lifetime thing. 387 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 4: But if you could do that, just don't overdo and 388 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 4: quit with the rules. It's sort of like, well, I'll 389 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 4: make it up tomorrow, and you have all these rules. Well, 390 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 4: the tighter the rules, the more you push back your brain. 391 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 2: Does that, Go ahead, because I got one thing that 392 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 2: I read about that I found interesting. But go ahead, 393 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 2: finish your thought, please forgive me. 394 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 4: Well, the other great thing about food and the bad 395 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 4: thing about food is food is comfort. Food is control, 396 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 4: food is distraction, food is nostalgia all at once, and 397 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,880 Speaker 4: so the brain fixates on that. 398 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 7: So you know, it's. 399 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 4: I'm wondering, you know, if you can sort of discern 400 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 4: like it's okay to eat, you know, if you don't 401 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 4: have good food, bad food, evil food. 402 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 7: You're not a bad person because you eat food. 403 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 4: It's just trying to figure out some way to have 404 00:20:59,000 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 4: peace with it. 405 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 7: But in knowing you're human. 406 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 2: You know, one thing I read that I found a 407 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 2: couple of things that were very interesting when I knew 408 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 2: this is what we were talking about today. And one 409 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 2: of the kind of tricks right that you could pull 410 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 2: off is before you go somewhere where you know there's 411 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 2: going to be a ton of food and maybe a 412 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 2: lot of food that's not very good for you. And 413 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 2: that pressure you're talking about, right that others put on you, 414 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 2: maybe you put on yourself, is before you go, load 415 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 2: up on a little a little bit of fiber rich 416 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 2: a snack before you go, because that helps you feel 417 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 2: like you're fuller, right, which might reduce a temptation then 418 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 2: to overeat once you arrive. I thought that was interesting. 419 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 2: And then the other thing is for people who are 420 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 2: really concerned about calories and maybe weight gain over the holidays, 421 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 2: one thing that you cannot forget you talk about empty calories, 422 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 2: a lot of soda and a lot of alcohol. 423 00:21:56,359 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 4: Oh and alcohol is bad as you make poor choices. 424 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 4: Whether you're gonna finally let Uncle Henry know how you 425 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 4: feel about it, You know you're gonna go straight to 426 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 4: the dessert table where the buffets are looking beautiful. So 427 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 4: absolutely called it out on that Tom. And the other 428 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 4: thing too is do you have to go to all 429 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 4: the parties? I mean the temptations? Are there some parties 430 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 4: you don't even want to go to first place? 431 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: Most of them you're bored. 432 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 4: If you're bored at a party, what's the second best 433 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 4: thing to do? 434 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 7: Drink alcohol? Any food. 435 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 4: Yep, So what about just not going to the parties. 436 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 4: It's okay, no, but you know you're not going to 437 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 4: miss out on anything. But you accept all those temptations 438 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 4: when your willpower is a little bit weaker around the 439 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 4: holidays because you're darn tired. So that that's another really 440 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 4: good trick. 441 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know that it is. But oftentimes you know, 442 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 2: at nine, Julie, you know, whether it's your significant other, 443 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 2: you know, who really wants to go. You may not 444 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,479 Speaker 2: want to go, but they really want to go. Maybe 445 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 2: it's something work related, not necessarily like your office party, 446 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 2: your company party, but it's somebody at work that nice 447 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 2: enough to invite you, So you feel like you kind 448 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 2: of have to go. So there is that pressure out there. 449 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 2: But I'm with you a lot of the times you 450 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 2: get invited to these things and you know, in your 451 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 2: heart of heart you really don't want to go. 452 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: And you know, I always. 453 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 2: Say to Polly all the time, Look, if you want 454 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 2: to go, go ahead and have a great time. If 455 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 2: you really want me to go with you, if it's 456 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 2: that important, I'll go. 457 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:41,679 Speaker 7: See that's a great idea. 458 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 4: The other thing is to arrive late, leave early, and 459 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 4: whether you tell people you have other obligations. 460 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 7: Or not, it's up to you, and they don't really care. 461 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 4: They love to see you too, but don't stay at 462 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 4: the party too long. 463 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, the eating is where it comes in. 464 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 2: And I have, like I said, I've already found that 465 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 2: this holiday season that every time I turn around, I'm 466 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,440 Speaker 2: reaching for something and then I jump on the scale 467 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 2: last night, which I know you tell me not to 468 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 2: do on a regular basis, or don't get too consumed 469 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 2: by it, but I think you know, all of us 470 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,360 Speaker 2: have a little bit of vanity in us. And one 471 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: other thing that I thought was interesting about food during 472 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 2: the holidays. If you're going to somebody's house and you 473 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 2: need to bring something, two things you can do. One, 474 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 2: you could bring something that's a little bit healthier, kind 475 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 2: of like you were talking about somebody dropping off carrots. 476 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:35,880 Speaker 1: That might be an. 477 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 2: Extreme, but something a little bit more healthy if you're 478 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:44,199 Speaker 2: taking it somewhere. And then if you are hosting, to 479 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 2: try to make the portions for others a little bit less, 480 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 2: that's a great idea. 481 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 4: Also, create a lot of fun around your parties, like 482 00:24:55,560 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 4: somebody was doing a scavenger hunt the other day, and 483 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 4: dancing and creating fun around them, so everything. 484 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 7: Isn't centered around food. 485 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 4: Same with the family, you know, creating like maybe you 486 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 4: have traditional games you play, or you'll go for a 487 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 4: walk before you eat, or remember Christmas Caroline and all that, 488 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 4: then everything wasn't centered around food. 489 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,959 Speaker 7: If we can just have you know, food is food. 490 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 4: We had talked so much to it and to sort 491 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 4: of find other family traditions where it's centered around fun 492 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 4: and food, and I think that helps a lot. 493 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 2: I think that is a fantastic, fantastic idea. So you say, dancing, 494 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,199 Speaker 2: Are you dancing a lot of holiday parties? 495 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 7: Dancing in my kitchen? 496 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 4: That's what I do? 497 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I didn't ask you if you were. Are 498 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 2: you dancing in someone else's kitchen when you're going over 499 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 2: these holiday parties? 500 00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 4: Well, I went online and I tapped in how how 501 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 4: to dance for old people? 502 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 7: That's me like, and they gave me a few versions. 503 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 7: So I'm working on my dance. 504 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,159 Speaker 2: Okay, girl?
