1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 1: The Michael Berry Show. Catherine Marr is the CEO of NPR.

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,000
Speaker 1: Before that, she worked for UNISEEF, the National Democrat Institute,

3
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: the World Bank, in the US Department of State's Foreign

4
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 1: Affairs Policy Board. She's a bad woman, right, Let's get

5
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 1: that straight. Before joining in PR, she was also the

6
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 1: CEO of the Wikipedia Foundation, which is the parent company

7
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: of Wikipedia. It's always pestering you for money, and this

8
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 1: comes from her NPR bio. She also worked for five

9
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 1: years as CEO of the Wikipedia Foundation, responsible for the

10
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 1: success of Wikipedia, one of the nations one of the

11
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 1: world's most popular digital platforms. She led Wikipedia to its

12
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: highest brand trust since its founding, navigating the misinformation crisis

13
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: and global trust decline in media. This woman is like

14
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: the lady at bud Light who authorize the Dylan mulvany can.

15
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 1: This woman is out of touch with everyday Americans. So

16
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 1: with that resume, I can think of no one better

17
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: to navigate the misinformation crisis and the global decline in

18
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: media and trust in media. As she says, she must

19
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: cherish honesty and truth as much as red blooded Americans do.

20
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 2: Right.

21
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: If she's making that claim, I.

22
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 3: Think our reverence for the truth might become, might have

23
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 3: become a bit of a distraction that is preventing us

24
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 3: from finding consensus and getting important things done.

25
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: Wait, let's hear that again.

26
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 3: I think our reverence for the truth might become, might

27
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 3: have become a bit of a distraction that is preventing

28
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 3: us from finding consensus and getting important things done.

29
00:01:56,080 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: You see, if we have reverence for the truth that

30
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: becomes a distraction. You can't let the truth get in

31
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 1: the way of your cult ideology. She says it.

32
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 3: Listen, I think our reverence for the truth might become,

33
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 3: might have become a bit of a distraction that is

34
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 3: preventing us from finding consensus and getting important things done.

35
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: People like Catherine Marhr are pretentious and elitist, but it's

36
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: important to understand. And this is the problem with Kamalo.

37
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 1: They are radical and they are dangerous. They think you're stupid.

38
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: They think you are dumb. They think you are poor

39
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: white trash, and they're better than you. They think you're

40
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: a rube, a well scrubbed, hustling rub with a little taste.

41
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: Good nutrition has given you some length of bone, but

42
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: you're not more than one generation from poor white trash.

43
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 1: Well done, Ramon didn't think I could work some silence

44
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: of the Lambs into the show today, but I just did.

45
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: And your eyes are bugged out of your head for

46
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: a reason. Never doubt me on this. Never doubt me

47
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: on this. The people who listen to National Pretentious Radio

48
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 1: only do so because it makes them feel superior to you.

49
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 4: The law received broad bipartisan support in the Tennessee legislature.

50
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 4: For IMPR news, I'm Rose Gilbert and Nashville.

51
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 2: You're listening to NPR News from Washington. National Pretentious Radio

52
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 2: is presented with support from the Ford Foundation, the National

53
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: Endowment for the Arts, Baron Cat Ladies, the Bill and

54
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 2: Melinda Gates Foundation, the Wallace Foundation, and thanks to the

55
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 2: generous donations from people like you. People that claim to

56
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 2: be and think they are smart, not because of life experiences,

57
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 2: not through absorbing and synthesizing different viewpoints, not from trial

58
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: and error, but people that think they're smart because they

59
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 2: listen to NPR National Pretentious Radio.

60
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: They listen to what people like Catherine Marr tell them

61
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:24,239
Speaker 1: what the truth is, and it makes them feel smarter.

62
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: I will tell you what this show is, and I'll

63
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: tell you what this show is not. This show is

64
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: not in pr.

65
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 5: Are you a very sedited person who have just had

66
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 5: you a double Cafe express a lato with two pieces

67
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,679
Speaker 5: of melbatose? Is you ready to listen to some heavily

68
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 5: slanted left wing propaganda in the form of news this morning?

69
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 5: How about some information from countries you ain't never heard about?

70
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 5: And don't get down then you listening to the rondamn

71
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 5: radio station because this is the Mica band program and

72
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 5: we do not play that upon him shoes.

73
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 1: Information has been top of mind for every American. Inflation

74
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: has been top of mind for every American, and Good

75
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 1: Morning America did a segment on how to combat the

76
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: high cost of living. This piece is a good example,

77
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:42,160
Speaker 1: a textbook example of media bias. It's not as much

78
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: what they say as what they don't say, because, as

79
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: you'll notice this is Good Morning America, they never mentioned

80
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 1: why inflation.

81
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 6: Is so high out to the rising costs of groceries.

82
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,919
Speaker 6: They are up, as we know, twenty over the past

83
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 6: four years, and it is one of the things Americans

84
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 6: are most concerned about when it comes to the economy.

85
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 6: Becky is back with money saving tips for the next

86
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 6: time you head to the store.

87
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 2: Good Morning again, Becky.

88
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 7: Robin grocery prices they've just been soaring over the last

89
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 7: few years, and we're all looking for ways to save

90
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 7: a lot of times, finding alternatives for pantry staples can

91
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 7: add up to saving some big bucks.

92
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 4: I hope you save money on groceries.

93
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 8: And Gena Zacharia aka The Saving Whiz, has creative ways

94
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 8: to fight inflation at the grocery store.

95
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 4: One of those things was to process my own foods

96
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 4: so that I can save a ton of money. There

97
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,679
Speaker 4: are definitely things that we buy at the grocery store

98
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 4: that we probably don't need to spend on.

99
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 9: She says.

100
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 8: Smart swaps and rethinking the packaging or quantities of staples

101
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 8: can add up to big savings. We had a grocery

102
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 8: store big bulk store to try some tips from The

103
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 8: Saving Whiz. First, avoid prepackaged items and instead package them

104
00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 8: at home yourself.

105
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 4: We have to understand that convenience comes at a premium price,

106
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 4: So the more that we can process things at home,

107
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,840
Speaker 4: especially those things that don't take a lot of time,

108
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 4: we can save a lot of money.

109
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 8: And it's not just prepackaged fruits and vegetables, but also snacks.

110
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 8: This warehouse store offers goldfish, both with and without individual sizes.

111
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 8: Because the amounts per box are different, we break them

112
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 8: down to ounces. The prepackaged is twenty eight cents per

113
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 8: ounce and the big bag eighteen cents per ounce. That's

114
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 8: a savings of six bucks per purchase or a thirty

115
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 8: six percent discount just for bagging the snacks yourself when needed.

116
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 8: Continuing the snack theme, popcorn. Buying a bag of kernels

117
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 8: and popping at yourself instead of buying pre popped that

118
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 8: can help you save a ton. This four dollars nineteen

119
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 8: cent bag of kernels can make one hundred and four

120
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 8: cups of popcorn. Pre popped corn like this has just

121
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 8: eighteen cups in a bag and costs three dollars and

122
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 8: ninety nine cents, so that's more than eighteen dollars in savings.

123
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 8: Another big opportunity to save bottled water. A case at

124
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 8: my big box store is four dollars, but for a

125
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 8: family of four, that could add up to hundreds of

126
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 8: dollars per year.

127
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 4: There are so many other ways that you can get

128
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 4: great water without having to get the bottled water. Not

129
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 4: only does it save money, but it also saves on

130
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 4: a waste.

131
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 9: Now one more thing about bottled water. Your local water

132
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 9: municipality has to publish info on the tap water and

133
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 9: its quality every year. The assumption that bottled water is

134
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 9: healthier for you that might end up costing you big time.

135
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 9: So it's worth looking up data about your local tap

136
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 9: water or researching the cost of a filter to install

137
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 9: under your sink. These are all simple ideas, Robin, but

138
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 9: in times of inflation, it's worth rethinking your routine.
