Speaker 1: This financial titan.
Speaker 2: This is the Bloomberg Money Minutes on seven hundred ww
Speaker 2: all right, we say good morning to Gina Savetti from
Speaker 2: the Bloomberg newsroom in New York City. One of the
Speaker 2: major chain pizza restaurants, Gina continues to fall behind its competitors.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tom, good morning.
Speaker 1: This is Pizza Hut.
Speaker 3: Everyone seems to have their favorite when it comes to pizza.
Speaker 3: It's a very competitive business, and Pizza Hut has fallen behind.
Speaker 3: Now its owner, Young Brands is reviewing its options for
Speaker 3: the struggling chain. Pizza Hut has underperformed others as competitors
Speaker 3: turn more and more to promotions. Domino's and Papa John's
Speaker 3: both reported growth in their North American businesses and their
Speaker 3: most recent earnings reports, but Pizza Hut has reported seven
Speaker 3: straight quarterly declines. Tom.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, Uber, on the other hand, firing on all cylinders,
Speaker 2: just had a strong quarter.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Recently we talked about Kroger expanding a partnership with Uber,
Speaker 3: and today we're hearing from Uber that its efforts to
Speaker 3: offer a broader range of services appears to be paying off.
Speaker 3: It seems like they deliver just about anything now and
Speaker 3: Uber just posted its strongest quarterly growth in a couple
Speaker 3: of years. Customers ordered more rides and deliveries than expected.
Speaker 1: Tom, all right, and the futures this morning, Gina.
Speaker 3: Well, they're still well into the red here. Sure looks
Speaker 3: like a lower open today. Dow futures down almost three
Speaker 3: hundred points, SMP futures down seventy, Nasdaq futures down three
Speaker 3: hundred and fifty five from Bloomberg. Gena Cervetti on News
Speaker 3: Radio seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 1: Alrighty, it's eight ten.
Speaker 2: It is election day all across this great country of ours,
Speaker 2: and of course here in Cincinnati there are twenty six
Speaker 2: individuals running for what would be nine city council seats.
Speaker 2: Eight of the nine current city council members are running
Speaker 2: for reelection, and of course it's a Mayo decision day today,
Speaker 2: where the incumbent have to have pure ball, is running
Speaker 2: against our guest who joins us now, the Republican challenger
Speaker 2: for Cincinnati Mayor, Corey Bowman. Corey, I'd imagine you got
Speaker 2: a a bright and early start today. What's your day
Speaker 2: like today?
Speaker 4: Tom? Well, first off, thank you so much for having
Speaker 4: me to you and your listeners. We are at Salem
Speaker 4: Park Rec Center this morning. We've been here since the
Speaker 4: polls open at six point thirty. I've been here with
Speaker 4: Christopher smith Man, my good friend out here running for
Speaker 4: city council, and we've seen such amazing energy out here.
Speaker 4: But we're just getting the day started.
Speaker 1: You know, I got to ask you.
Speaker 2: I mean, look, this isn't something you haven't been asked before,
Speaker 2: Corey Bowman, any Republican, not just you, any Republican.
Speaker 1: It's not just a hill.
Speaker 2: It's a mountain to climb in not only Cincinnati, but
Speaker 2: virtually every urban city in America today.
Speaker 1: Has there ever been a point in.
Speaker 2: Time as you've gone through this where you're like, man,
Speaker 2: am I beating my head against the wall at all?
Speaker 4: Well, it definitely has been an uphill climb. And you
Speaker 4: said that it's a mountain. But you know, last time
Speaker 4: I checked in the Bible, it says that we speak
Speaker 4: to mountains, we're not afraid of them. Yeah, And we
Speaker 4: love our we love our city and we are a
Speaker 4: part of Cincinnati from a business perspective, from being pastors.
Speaker 4: I'm raising my kids in the city, and this is
Speaker 4: something that we care about deeply. And when we saw
Speaker 4: what was happening the last four years specifically, we just
Speaker 4: knew we couldn't sit by, and I will be honest,
Speaker 4: at the beginning of the year, I just thought that
Speaker 4: it was going to be a statement. But the momentum
Speaker 4: this year has been unbelievable. People are waking up on
Speaker 4: both sides of the aisle and saying, we've got to
Speaker 4: vote outside of our comfort zone if we want to
Speaker 4: be able to see change in our city, and we're
Speaker 4: going to see amazing results today.
Speaker 2: What what where do you see that? I mean, what
Speaker 2: kind of what? What can you share with us? Maybe
Speaker 2: interactions with some voters and maybe they're like, hey, I've
Speaker 2: always voted Democrat, so on and so forth. I feel
Speaker 2: like things are not going the direction I want them
Speaker 2: to go. Share with us, you know, some of those
Speaker 2: interactions you've had now that we finally arrived on election day.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I think what I'm hearing from the voter
Speaker 4: is that they're tired of national politics being copy and
Speaker 4: pasted into city hall. I see it as your glorified custodians.
Speaker 4: When you're there, you're making sure that the money is
Speaker 4: spent properly, You're making sure that the streets are clean,
Speaker 4: taken care of and you're making sure that the streets
Speaker 4: are safe through crime prevention. And that's not what we're
Speaker 4: seeing with the city. So when you talk to people,
Speaker 4: we don't start with I'm red, you're blue, I'm right,
Speaker 4: you're left. We start with, Hey, this is our experience
Speaker 4: in the city. What are we going to do about it?
Speaker 4: And a lot of these conclusions that we come to
Speaker 4: don't really have anything to do with the national political stage.
Speaker 4: It has to do with just caring for the citizens
Speaker 4: of Cincinnati. I've talked with Democrats, I've talked with independence
Speaker 4: like my friend Christomas Smithment that's out here with me today.
Speaker 4: I've talked with Republicans, and all of them see it
Speaker 4: as we've got to get back to the basics of
Speaker 4: taking care of our public services, our public safety, and
Speaker 4: making sure that it's not just a political stage for
Speaker 4: a higher up office.
Speaker 2: Give me an example, We'll give our listeners an example,
Speaker 2: Corey Bowman, of something that you could do if you
Speaker 2: were elected today as the next mayor of Cincinnati. What
Speaker 2: would be let let's start with crime. What would be
Speaker 2: the first or second or third things that you would
Speaker 2: do to try and write this ship because it definitely
Speaker 2: needs a new direction.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you got to see it from long term
Speaker 4: solutions and short term solutions, and the long term what
Speaker 4: we're seeing on our streets right now has been the
Speaker 4: culmination of bad policies when it comes to lax judges,
Speaker 4: when it comes to understaffing with the police department, and
Speaker 4: when it comes to their hands being tied when it
Speaker 4: comes to enforcing even low level and preventative crimes. From
Speaker 4: the top down, they're seeing that from city Hall that hey,
Speaker 4: you can't really enforce this, can't really do this, and
Speaker 4: a lot of these are de escalation tactics. So from
Speaker 4: the start, you've got to start it off with we've
Speaker 4: got to increase our staffing. We've got to increase lateral
Speaker 4: hiring to make sure that our complement levels are up.
Speaker 4: We've got to make sure that our officers feel secure
Speaker 4: in doing their job and that they're going to have
Speaker 4: the full backing of city Hall. And then you've got
Speaker 4: to put pressure on the judges to be able to
Speaker 4: hold criminals accountable. Now, in the short term, we just
Speaker 4: saw a lot yesterday that Ohio State Patrol and our
Speaker 4: package was on the city streets yesterday. But that is
Speaker 4: one of only a couple days that is accepted throughout
Speaker 4: the month. We need to accept the full package from
Speaker 4: the Governor's office. Because I talked with public safety representatives,
Speaker 4: we could have easily asked for help on Friday, Saturday,
Speaker 4: and Sunday of this past weekend in Cincinnati. It's a
Speaker 4: busy weekend, Halloween weekend. We have Bengals games going on.
Speaker 4: We should have had help to bring our compliment levels
Speaker 4: up to help our officers. Such help was actually accepted
Speaker 4: by the city and because that we saw shootings and
Speaker 4: crime happen at record rates throughout the weekend.
Speaker 2: You know, I got to you know this story and
Speaker 2: Scott's loan is going to have the fellow on who
Speaker 2: wishes to remain anonymous. But I know you heard this
Speaker 2: story and you probably see it all the time, because
Speaker 2: you know, you live in the area right not too
Speaker 2: far from OTR where this gentleman goes out. He wants
Speaker 2: to take some video early on Sunday morning showing some
Speaker 2: of the crimes or some of the trash, some of
Speaker 2: the debris that's left around from this privy bar. And
Speaker 2: they find a handgun, and they find a bunch of
Speaker 2: blood on the street, and you're sitting there saying to yourself,
Speaker 2: how is this going on?
Speaker 1: It seems like a.
Speaker 2: Lot recently, Corey Bowman has been about politics in the town,
Speaker 2: and yet the mayor's office has said, we never make
Speaker 2: any decisions around here based on an election or politics.
Speaker 4: Well, that's all I'm hearing from the officers. The officers
Speaker 4: that come into my coffee shop on a daily basis
Speaker 4: say that all they deal with is political decisions from
Speaker 4: the top down, and they just want to be able
Speaker 4: to do their job. Republican cops, Democrat cops, independent cops,
Speaker 4: doesn't matter. They want to just be able to do
Speaker 4: their job. Now, one thing you got to see with
Speaker 4: this is that that video of showing the debris and
Speaker 4: to show what was happening on the street. Any department
Speaker 4: that is twenty percent understaffed is going to feel like
Speaker 4: they're drowning with all the stuff that's happening in our city.
Speaker 4: So I think that needs to be the emphasis right now.
Speaker 4: It cannot just be emphasized during an election year. You're
Speaker 4: seeing a lot of promises happening right now, but where
Speaker 4: has this been for the past four years? So I'm
Speaker 4: tired of people being in city Hall and elected offices,
Speaker 4: and they only show up during election years. We've got
Speaker 4: to hit the ground running from day one to be
Speaker 4: able to help these situations become better in our city.
Speaker 2: All right, let me ask you this, how can a
Speaker 2: Republican mayor work with what is certainly going to be
Speaker 2: a slanted to the Democratic side. How much we don't know,
Speaker 2: we'll find out later today. Christopher Smitherman, as you mentioned,
Speaker 2: you're with him this morning. He's running as an independent,
Speaker 2: certainly leans a little bit to the right. But how
Speaker 2: can theoretically you as a Republican mayor work with a
Speaker 2: democratically controlled city hall.
Speaker 4: Well, one thing is I would emphasize that there, like
Speaker 4: you said, there's twenty six council candidates, and many of
Speaker 4: them are great conservative and more moderate candidates, which is
Speaker 4: exactly what we need. You know, you have Liz Keating,
Speaker 4: you have Gary Favors, when the Matthews. You have great
Speaker 4: people that are running for city council, even from the charterrights.
Speaker 4: You have Steve Gooden. We can get strong council members
Speaker 4: in I'm not intimidated by working with Democrats, to be
Speaker 4: honest with you, Sometimes I even feel like an old
Speaker 4: school seventies Democrat based on some of the things that
Speaker 4: we stand for, but a lot of the things have
Speaker 4: switched in the last years to where we've lost sight
Speaker 4: of just help helping people, and we've off side of
Speaker 4: just practical things. So whenever I have these conversations with
Speaker 4: people on both aisle, both sides of the aisle, we're
Speaker 4: actually able to have great conversations and we're able to
Speaker 4: find common ground. And I think that if we elect
Speaker 4: people that put people over politics, we're not going to
Speaker 4: have a problem working together. We're actually going to find
Speaker 4: solutions together to be able to bring our city up.
Speaker 2: Corey, want to thank you for your time. I know
Speaker 2: it's a very busy day for you, big day for you.
Speaker 2: We wish you well and thank you so much for
Speaker 2: taking a few minutes out of your morning to join
Speaker 2: us here on the Morning Show.
Speaker 5: Tom.
Speaker 4: It's an honor being on with you and your listeners.
Speaker 4: Thank you all so much, and everybody get out and vote, vote.
Speaker 1: Vote, all right.
Speaker 2: That is Corey Bowman, the Republican challenger to have tab
Speaker 2: pure ball and trying to become the next mayor of Cincinnati.
Speaker 2: Fellows were winding down on what has been a great summer.
Speaker 2: What has been a great fall. But maybe you're feeling
Speaker 2: a little run down. Maybe you're thinking, man, I'm getting older,
Speaker 2: don't sleep so much as well, productive workouts thing of
Speaker 2: the past.
Speaker 1: Maybe your sex drives a little bit low.
Speaker 2: Well, did you know that's starting in our early to
Speaker 2: mid thirties, we as men start losing about two to
Speaker 2: three percent of our testosterone production every single year. It
Speaker 2: happens gradually, and before you know it, you're not the
Speaker 2: same guy you were in your twenties or early thirties. Well,
Speaker 2: that's where Tri State Men's Health comes into play. Log
Speaker 2: onto tristatemenshealth dot com. Book an appointment. You walk in
Speaker 2: the door, you give them a little blood, They run
Speaker 2: a PSA test, they run a testosterone test, then you
Speaker 2: sit down. Within thirty minutes, you talk to a licensed
Speaker 2: medical provider about your results and your options.
Speaker 1: The cost of that appointment is ninety nine dollars.
Speaker 2: If you sign up for testosterone treatment the day of
Speaker 2: your appointment, that appointment is absolutely free. Tri State Men's
Speaker 2: Health has six locations, Cincinnati, Daton. Two in Columbus that
Speaker 2: would be in Hilliard and Westerville, Louisville and Northern Kentucky.
Speaker 2: Most men they wait a year, they wait even longer.
Speaker 2: Why be one of those guys? Call him today in
Speaker 2: one aine hundred nine hundred nine to sixty five for
Speaker 2: or visit Tri State Men's Health.
Speaker 6: Lackey of the Bengals right now, statistically have a defense
Speaker 6: that's trending toward being the worst in the history of
Speaker 6: the National Football League. Yeat Zach Taylor says he has
Speaker 6: faith and trust in Al Golden, so those staff changes
Speaker 6: are imminent. I can't even believe I'm saying that. What
Speaker 6: options right now do the Bengals have on defense?
Speaker 7: Of course, not a ton of great options here during
Speaker 7: this season. Now, you could look to, you know, just
Speaker 7: on a whole team level, we would look to trade somebody.
Speaker 7: But who are you going to trade? You know, is
Speaker 7: Trey Hendrickson your most valuable piece? What are you gonna
Speaker 7: get from him? Right? I don't see that. I guess
Speaker 7: you can't just keep rolling out the same guys for
Speaker 7: another reason than perception, right, and just how that looks?
Speaker 7: I mean, at some point, don't you just just search
Speaker 7: the waiver wire, bring new guys in for workouts every
Speaker 7: Monday and just try to see if you can catch
Speaker 7: a diamond in the rough.
Speaker 1: They gotta do something, don't they know.
Speaker 7: Yeah, none of these options I've described are good ones.
Speaker 7: I'm just saying, you gotta do something. He can't just
Speaker 7: keep rolling the same cast of characters out.
Speaker 6: I'll be okay if they called you at this point, Yes,
Speaker 6: I'll take anything. Try putting a twelfth guy on the field.
Speaker 6: Try putting a thirteenth guy in the field if they
Speaker 6: catch it. On one hand, I feel bad for Al
Speaker 6: Golden who. I mean, look, the work he has done
Speaker 6: in college has spoken for itself. But at the end
Speaker 6: of the day, he took this job, and it's it's
Speaker 6: not like we're asking for them to be the two
Speaker 6: thousand Ravens. We're asking them for them to be slightly
Speaker 6: better than the worst defense in the history of the sport.
Speaker 6: And so far he seems incapable of doing that.
Speaker 7: I agree, And I feel like at some point it,
Speaker 7: you know, comes down to effort too. And I mean,
Speaker 7: and if you're him and you see one one rep
Speaker 7: of a guy where he's not sticking his head in there,
Speaker 7: and he's not playing aggressive, he's not looking like he
Speaker 7: wants to, you know, use proper fundamentals and make a tackle.
Speaker 7: He's got to go at some point, some example has
Speaker 7: got to be said that this is not acceptable, and
Speaker 7: hopefully he's the guy that can do that.
Speaker 1: Bengals don't play this weekend.
Speaker 6: We'll see how many points the Bengals managed to give
Speaker 6: up during their buy. Then they're back on the field
Speaker 6: against the Pittsburgh Steelers a week from Sunday. That game
Speaker 6: we'll kick off at one and you'll hear it live
Speaker 6: on seven hundred WLW with Rocky Boyman.
Speaker 1: I'm Louwager. I just want to live questions.
Speaker 4: Is the Bloomberg money Minutes on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 5: This is a Bloomberg money minute. Starbucks is looking to
Speaker 5: improve its fortunes in China and hoping a local partner
Speaker 5: will help. The coffee chain has agreed to sell a
Speaker 5: majority stake and it's China business to a Chinese private
Speaker 5: equity firm. Starbucks has been searching for a partner to
Speaker 5: help chart its next chapter in that nation. Starbucks has
Speaker 5: struggled in recent years, along with other Western companies that
Speaker 5: have lost ground to local rivals.
Speaker 8: It's looking like.
Speaker 5: A rough day on Wall Street. Stocks are seeing losses
Speaker 5: this morning with SMP futures down around one percent. Keep
Speaker 5: in mind that stocks have served more than thirty five
Speaker 5: percent since April, and the fight between YouTube and Disney
Speaker 5: over distribution fees continues to drag on. YouTube TV rejected
Speaker 5: Disney's request to restore ABC to the online TV service
Speaker 5: this election day. YouTube says adding back the channel for
Speaker 5: the day might confuse subscribers. YouTube TV customers lost access
Speaker 5: to Disney channels such as ABC, ESPN, and FX on
Speaker 5: October thirty, first Cortney Donahope Bloomberg.
Speaker 2: Radio Hight eight thirty eight on The Big One, Welcome
Speaker 2: to the Morning Show, seven hundred WLW. We talk about
Speaker 2: it all the time, the immense popularity of this segment.
Speaker 2: We do it every single Tuesday with former United States
Speaker 2: Olympia Julie Isfording, born and raised Cincinnati Gal. As we
Speaker 2: like to say, I hope you're okay. You okay, would
Speaker 2: be referring to you as the Cincinnati Gal. Julie Isfording.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I love the Cincinnati part.
Speaker 1: That's not crazy about Gal. It's okay, okay.
Speaker 8: At least I get to talk to you every Tuesday.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 1: Well, that's the lucky me.
Speaker 2: Lucky me too, Lucky me because every time I talk
Speaker 2: to you every Tuesday, you joining us this time, there's
Speaker 2: a good chance I'm not getting enough sleep.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that was a big It's a huge topic. It's
Speaker 8: maybe the number one topic in America if you do
Speaker 8: all your research. We're chronically sleep deprived. It's like a crisis.
Speaker 8: You wonder why everyone's so angry and tired. We're just
Speaker 8: not sleeping enough. And there's so many reasons for it.
Speaker 8: You know, we've trained our brains to be alert twenty
Speaker 8: four to seven. We're always on thanks to smartphones and
Speaker 8: constant notifications. And how about just one more episode of
Speaker 8: streaming and think about the stress we're under. Financial worries,
Speaker 8: job pressure, parenting, a lot of uncertainty right now. And
Speaker 8: so that's a body's stress response. So we're really really
Speaker 8: like just on high alert all I love.
Speaker 1: I want to ask you this.
Speaker 2: I want to ask you this though, because when when
Speaker 2: you know, when I knew that I was having the opportunity,
Speaker 2: thank God for it, to take this job. It was
Speaker 2: going to require basically a one point eighty from my
Speaker 2: prior life, working nights, going to bed at twelve thirty
Speaker 2: one o'clock in the morning every night, because you got
Speaker 2: a ballgame, it goes to eleven o'clock, and maybe I'd
Speaker 2: get up at seven, but I was still getting seven
Speaker 2: plus hours of sleep a night, okay. And one of
Speaker 2: the things that that I researched were people who were
Speaker 2: sleeping less than what we're told we should get, and
Speaker 2: there are a lot of them out there. I guess
Speaker 2: what I'm asking you in a very long winded way
Speaker 2: forgive me, is I guess each of us are bodies.
Speaker 2: Will it ultimately tell us if or getting enough sleep?
Speaker 2: Or or do we not even know it and we
Speaker 2: just continue to keep on keeping on.
Speaker 8: God, that's a great question. It's kind of like what
Speaker 8: happens when we don't get enough sleep. You ever notice
Speaker 8: like you have brain fog, you're just like not with it,
Speaker 8: or every your food goes down. How about a lot
Speaker 8: of people gain weight. I mean, you're waking might not
Speaker 8: be because you're eating more, It's because you're not getting
Speaker 8: enough sleep, so your hunger hormones kick in. You don't
Speaker 8: want to exercise, you don't have the energy. All your
Speaker 8: energy is being used to keep you awake during the day.
Speaker 8: And then you know, Tom, you know what I think
Speaker 8: is the worst? Like the saddest part of not getting
Speaker 8: enough sleep. You're living half your life. You miss the
Speaker 8: small stuff, the little miracles during the day. You know
Speaker 8: that opportunity to say something great to your kid or
Speaker 8: extend to kindness, or you don't hear that compliment coming
Speaker 8: your way, or you had this wonderful opportunity to thank
Speaker 8: someone and you just weren't there. It's like you've lost
Speaker 8: your spirit. And I think that's the hardest one for
Speaker 8: me or I you know, I'm not with it during
Speaker 8: the day, or like this radio show, I always try
Speaker 8: to get a little more sleep, you know, on Monday night,
Speaker 8: because I want to do well. I want to say
Speaker 8: the right thing at the right time.
Speaker 4: I want to be with it.
Speaker 8: So to me, that's the hardest part. But you know,
Speaker 8: we always talk about how do we get fit, how
Speaker 8: do we exercise, how do we I think sometimes we
Speaker 8: have to do just sleep more. And it sounds funny
Speaker 8: right to say do nothing, Like for us we think
Speaker 8: sleep is nothing, but it's probably one of the most
Speaker 8: important things you ever do. And people argue with me.
Speaker 8: They always say, well, I stay up late because it's
Speaker 8: the only me time I get. So I scrolled, yeah,
Speaker 8: and people scroll and snack or binge just to reclaim
Speaker 8: control over their life. Where you know, it's just like
Speaker 8: when we are kids and you you know, you got
Speaker 8: your kids in early to read them a bedtime story.
Speaker 8: So can we go back to that, Yeah, you know
Speaker 8: that way, like you know, everything's a little bit easier
Speaker 8: in life. That email that wasn't meant to really hurt
Speaker 8: hurt you. You don't take personally that traffic jam doesn't
Speaker 8: become a huge crisis. Can you see how like everything
Speaker 8: when you don't get to sleep, everything seems so much harder.
Speaker 2: Well, I think you hit the nail on the head
Speaker 2: about about you know, we hear all the time and
Speaker 2: I look, I've been the first guy to kind of
Speaker 2: roll my eyes at that term being present, right, I mean,
Speaker 2: guilty is charged, But I mean the older we get
Speaker 2: and you really take a step back and you say,
Speaker 2: you know what that is really really something that that's
Speaker 2: got to be maybe in the top three things we
Speaker 2: do every single day, whether it's with our family, our wives,
Speaker 2: our husbands, our kids, our significant other, or are the
Speaker 2: people we work with being present and when you're tired,
Speaker 2: as you just pointed out, you're really not present a lot.
Speaker 8: Yeah, It's really kind of sad because you know, they
Speaker 8: always say it's not the starter or the finish, it's
Speaker 8: the company you keep during your lifetime. It's that. But
Speaker 8: you're going to miss it. You're definitely going to miss
Speaker 8: the small miracles in your life if you're sleep deprived,
Speaker 8: and don't you love the people say, oh, I only
Speaker 8: need six hours of sleep, and I think, and yeah,
Speaker 8: you're the one that falls asleep in church and you
Speaker 8: need a therapist and you know, so I'm always saying,
Speaker 8: I wonder what you would be like with seven hours
Speaker 8: of sleep or six and a half hours of sleep.
Speaker 8: So you just never know how great, how outrageously wonderful
Speaker 8: that's what you can be until you really think about
Speaker 8: how you could get just fifteen more minutes of sleep
Speaker 8: or twenty, or just get that a little earlier. But
Speaker 8: you nailed it on the head. I mean, what a
Speaker 8: great motivation to know that if you get a little
Speaker 8: more sleep, your resilience and your wisdom and your hope
Speaker 8: and your joy and you're happy will be exponentially better.
Speaker 8: I mean, if you have more sleep, you're happier, and
Speaker 8: you don't want your happy to go away?
Speaker 2: Can you make that up? Can you make that up?
Speaker 2: Julian naps? I know you love naps, you talk about
Speaker 2: it on a regular basis. Can you make up if
Speaker 2: you're only getting five or six hours of sleep and
Speaker 2: not for various reasons whatever they might be, maybe working
Speaker 2: two jobs, maybe you know, you got all kinds of
Speaker 2: things going on. Do naps help?
Speaker 8: I think naps are more important than exercise. I think
Speaker 8: naps are more important than a hand say much. I
Speaker 8: mean a lot of time. We're really not hungry, we
Speaker 8: just need to lay down and if you read all
Speaker 8: the research, you really can get a twenty minute nap
Speaker 8: and you know, just rest your eyes, just a little
Speaker 8: downtime can make such a difference in your life. It's hard, though,
Speaker 8: you know, once you're on, you're on, and you have
Speaker 8: so many demands and you don't want to miss anything.
Speaker 8: You know, we're we're supposed to be super women and
Speaker 8: superman now super parents, super exercisers, and I think we
Speaker 8: have to kind of change the filter and just be
Speaker 8: good people. And good people need to rest and once
Speaker 8: we realize that it's okay, sometimes we treat it like
Speaker 8: a luxury when it's really a medical necessity. My favorite doctor,
Speaker 8: doctor Barrett always says a good laugh and a good
Speaker 8: nap is the best medicine out there. And if you
Speaker 8: think about it, it's free once again again. All the
Speaker 8: really we've complicated life, and you know, see what you
Speaker 8: can solve just by a good night's rest. You'll feel smarter,
Speaker 8: you'll feel happier. So you know, I'm just a big
Speaker 8: fan of it. And and I think you've been touched
Speaker 8: on some stuff yesterday on your show. If you don't
Speaker 8: get enough sleep, it leads to really serious medical issues,
Speaker 8: cart problems, strokes, car crashes because you're not alert. You
Speaker 8: know the in weight gain. These are serious medical issues.
Speaker 8: So it's nothing to fool.
Speaker 2: With at the end of the day. And look, whether
Speaker 2: this is an exact science or not, I don't know.
Speaker 2: Maybe you do know at the end of the day.
Speaker 2: How much sleep at night do we really need? Or
Speaker 2: is that different depending on the person you think?
Speaker 8: You know it's seasonal. I think you know when you're
Speaker 8: really young, your kids need a lot of sleep. You'll
Speaker 8: notice they're they're smarter, they're they're better in sports, they're
Speaker 8: better at school. When they've had good nine ten hours
Speaker 8: of sleep. You can get away with as you you know,
Speaker 8: dur when you're like twenties and thirties, you know they
Speaker 8: say seven hours or so. As you age, though, you
Speaker 8: do need a little more sleep, and you got to
Speaker 8: capture it. You have to be responsible, you got to
Speaker 8: plan it. But as you get older and older, sleep
Speaker 8: exponentially gives you back your life. It makes you more alert,
Speaker 8: it makes you happier, and you know, that's a wonderful
Speaker 8: way to live your life. When you're fully there, you
Speaker 8: don't miss out, you don't lose your spirit. So you're right.
Speaker 8: It changes males females age what and you know if
Speaker 8: you're a high level athlete, you need more sleep, so
Speaker 8: it just waivers. You can't give like a really a
Speaker 8: really good like dab on that. But I think the
Speaker 8: most important thing, Tom is you know yourself better than anyone.
Speaker 8: You know, when you're when you've lost your patience, you're
Speaker 8: starting to be angry, you're not exercise anymore, you feel dumb.
Speaker 1: You actually, yeah, no doubt about it.
Speaker 8: And you know, you start reflecting and you realize your
Speaker 8: thoughts are all negative and you're worrying more. It might
Speaker 8: just be the fact that you're you haven't gotten enough.
Speaker 2: Sleep so well that in mind. I got to go
Speaker 2: home and take a nap after the show today, I.
Speaker 8: Was wondering, what do you do to get sleep because
Speaker 8: you have to get up at the krack of dawn?
Speaker 8: Do you take a naph? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I try to take about a forty five minute nap
Speaker 2: hour nap every single day. You know, I basically have
Speaker 2: like two full time days. So I get up at
Speaker 2: three oh seven, I'm here by three p forty, Okay,
Speaker 2: i get off at nine. I'll immediately go exercise as
Speaker 2: soon as I get off, and then I'll go home
Speaker 2: and hopefully take about an hour nap from roughly about
Speaker 2: eleven thirty to twelve thirty, and then I start a
Speaker 2: whole new day.
Speaker 1: So it's not too shabby.
Speaker 8: Yeah, And that's why you're so nice.
Speaker 1: And the part please please stop, just stop, but.
Speaker 8: How you've made your adjustment and then on the weekend
Speaker 8: you're doing games, so you've taught yourself. You've really planned
Speaker 8: it out. And I think that's the most important thing too,
Speaker 8: is you know how serious it is, and you definitely
Speaker 8: make a part of your day to find a way
Speaker 8: to get seven to eight hours.
Speaker 2: To sleep trying, but definitely not at night. Jules can't
Speaker 2: thank you enough as always for your time. You're the best.
Speaker 2: I hope you have a great rest of your day today.
Speaker 8: Thanks Tom.
Speaker 2: Okay, you know, before I get out of here today, Fellas,
Speaker 2: I don't know about you. You maybe for a long
Speaker 2: time you have had the perfect marriage, and I do
Speaker 2: believe there is such a thing, but I believe in
Speaker 2: most cases it's not always perfect.
Speaker 1: Not every day is perfect.
Speaker 2: Speaking to the women out there too, I didn't get
Speaker 2: married till I was thirty seven years old, and today
Speaker 2: my wife Polly and I celebrate our twenty fifth wedding anniversary.
Speaker 2: I told her last night I wish i'd have married
Speaker 2: her fifteen years before. Wish I would have known her
Speaker 2: fifteen years before. There are many days through the last
Speaker 2: twenty five years where I have been far from a
Speaker 2: perfect husband, far from a great husband. But I thank
Speaker 2: God multiple times a day for Polly and Atte Rassi
Speaker 2: and God bringing her into my life. I'm better with her,
Speaker 2: I'm happier with her. I would marry her all over again.
Speaker 2: A lot of people don't make it twenty five years.
Speaker 2: There are a lot of people that have made it
Speaker 2: a lot longer than twenty five years, but my heart
Speaker 2: still skips a beat every time I see her. And Honey,
Speaker 2: I know you're on your way to work, you're driving
Speaker 2: in the car. You weren't expecting me to say this today,
Speaker 2: but I love you more than anything in the world.
Speaker 2: And I say thank you for the last twenty five years,
Speaker 2: and I pray that this marriage lasts for all eternity.
