00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Tutor Dixon Podcast in the Clay

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:10,879
Speaker 1: and Book podcast Network. Welcome to the Tutor Dixon Podcast.

3
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 1: I'm Tutor Dixon, and I'm excited to have you join

4
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: us for the podcast, where we want to focus on

5
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: true stories of Americans from all walks of life. As

6
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 1: many of you know, I ran for governor in the

7
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: state of Michigan last year, and I became frustrated with

8
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 1: what I was seeing in my states. So as I

9
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 1: traveled around, I heard stories from people who were desperate

10
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 1: also to write those wrongs. A lot of that connected

11
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: to the pandemic, and many of those stories were actually

12
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,480
Speaker 1: about people who had lost loved ones and the pain

13
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: of not being there by their side during that time.

14
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: And that resonated with me because I actually lived through

15
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: this pain myself. My grandmother died alone in a nursing home,

16
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 1: but interestingly, it wasn't COVID that ended her life. She

17
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 1: was suffering from a broken heart, and so many people

18
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: that I talked to Michigan went through the same thing.

19
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 1: So in Michigan are nursing homes were locked down, and

20
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 1: then folks were actually allowed to go outside and meet

21
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: family members outside, but then they locked down again, and

22
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: I remember one of those last conversations I had with

23
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 1: my grandmother. She looked at me and she said, I

24
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 1: don't think I can do this anymore. And you know,

25
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: when you're younger, you don't really get what that means,

26
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: because I hadn't been locked alone, and she was locked

27
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: away alone. And so when she was locked down for

28
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: the second time, the nursing home called us, and even

29
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 1: though she had been really healthy, they said, she's just

30
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: going downhill. We know it's not going to be long now.

31
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: And truly, it was just dying of a broken heart.

32
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: And I remember looking through the window with my girls.

33
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: We were holding my girls up to the window to

34
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: say goodbye to her, and looking down the row and

35
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: seeing families down the row looking in the windows to

36
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: say goodbye to their loved ones, and thinking, how can

37
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: this be happening. It just was so surreal to not

38
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 1: be able to hold their hands and say goodbye. And

39
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: my guest today has a similar experience a little bit

40
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: more severe than that, but I want her to share that.

41
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: I want to say this about her. She is an

42
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: incredibly unique woman. And I say that because you've likely

43
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,079
Speaker 1: watched this woman on TV and when you watch her,

44
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: you can just feel the joy that comes from her.

45
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: And I want to explain that because I think oftentimes

46
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: people mistake joy for happiness, but joy is really a

47
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 1: heart condition and joy comes directly from your soul. And

48
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: I would say that this is truly visible when you

49
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: see Jana Steine. I think that's why it's so powerful

50
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: to hear her advocate for nursing home victims. And she

51
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: did this in New York. That experience drew her to

52
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: other people. She calls it a David and Goliath story,

53
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: and I think if you think about what she was

54
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 1: able to do, she was really talking about this and

55
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: going up against Governor Andrew Cuomo, the Goliath of New York,

56
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: someone who was being held up as someone who was

57
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: going to run for president. He was getting Emmy Awards

58
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: for presenting his COVID plan, and she the whole time

59
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: knew what this had done to her personally and done

60
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: to so many other people in the state of New York.

61
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 1: So Janice, she spends her days as the senior meteorologist

62
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: for Fox News, but she is blessed with the gift

63
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: of storytelling like no one else, and through the pain

64
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: of her own crisis. She brought us the book I

65
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,920
Speaker 1: Am the Storm. It's inspiring, it's American, it is strength,

66
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: and above all else, it is faith. And I'm excited

67
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: to dive into the details today with Fox News Senior

68
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: meteorologist and author Jannas Deane. Welcome to the podcast. Oh tutor, congratulations.

69
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 1: This is a great form for you because you are

70
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: such a great communicator. I watched you when you were

71
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: running for governor. I obviously know your story, and I'm

72
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: so glad that you have this platform now to talk

73
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: to regular Americans who are still three years later wondering

74
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 1: what happened, you know, not only to people we lost,

75
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: but the origins of COVID. I think it's really important

76
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: that we lean on our government officials to have a

77
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: full investigation and hearings, um, you know, because we can't

78
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: go through something like this again. And if we don't

79
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: dig deep and find out the really big problems, the

80
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: deadly problems that our government uh, you know, let us into,

81
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: then we're going to do that again. UM. So I'm

82
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: really grateful to you and your advocacy. Uh. And I'm

83
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: really I'm really proud of you right now for you know,

84
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: taking this next step into broadcasting because you're good at it.

85
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: Oh well, thank you. I want to say this is

86
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: something that is a total, totally a side note, but

87
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 1: we watch Fox and Friends every morning and my girls

88
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: call you the Angel, which I think is so cute

89
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: because when you come on, you have this glow around

90
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 1: you and they always go, oh, look, the Angel. The Angel.

91
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: She's out there telling us about the weather. So um.

92
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: And that's why I say, I really you do exude joy,

93
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 1: and we just can tell that you really care about people.

94
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: And I know that's why you wrote the book I

95
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 1: Am the Storm, and I think so many of us

96
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: feel that. I love that title. I just love it

97
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: because so many of us feel that when we are

98
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: fighting against all of the things that we're fighting against

99
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: right now, and there are so many people that are

100
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: standing up, whether it is for their child. I know

101
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: a lot of people have autistic children and they feel

102
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: like they're really fighting for their child all the time,

103
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: whether it's for your loved one in a nursing home,

104
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: your loved one, whether they're sick. I mean, so many

105
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: of us feel that way. But you are really able

106
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: to put a lot of these stories together. So I

107
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: wanted to know if you could share a few of

108
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: those stories with us. It started off with our story,

109
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: our family story. My husband lost both of his parents

110
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 1: in separate elder care facilities in New York during the pandemic.

111
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: Our governor, like Governor Whitmer, had a mandate to put

112
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: COVID positive patients into where our most vulnerable resided. And

113
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 1: from that moment, even though I knew I was up

114
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: against a goliath in Andrew Cuomo, a dynasty politician, has

115
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 1: been in the governor's mansion for decades, you know, including

116
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: the time he spent with his dad when Mario Cuomo

117
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: was governor here. You know, I had people telling me,

118
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: why are you doing this. He's not going anywhere. He's

119
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 1: the terminator. That's what some of the reporters here in

120
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: York called him, the terminator. And but I had truth

121
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: on my side. I had the angels on my side,

122
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: and I thought it was important, because my family went

123
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: through this in thousands of others, that I use my

124
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: platform here at Fox to be able to deliver that message.

125
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: And I'm so grateful that they allowed me to do that.

126
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: I do the weather, as you know, I've been here

127
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: twenty years doing that same job, which I really love.

128
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: I'm not a political person. I always say the red

129
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: and blue on the map or areas of high pressure

130
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: and low pressure. So but I had to tell the

131
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: story because I just found myself in a position of

132
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: I have to do this for others. I have to

133
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: do this for my family. And while I was writing

134
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: that chapter, I was trying to find others that were

135
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 1: doing similar situations where something is happened to their family

136
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 1: or something had happened in their life that was, you know,

137
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 1: against all odds. But even against those odds, they rise,

138
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: They rose to the occasion. And so some of the stories, well,

139
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: obviously a lot of them are COVID related. You talked

140
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: about parents and what they were seeing in schools and

141
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: the fact my little boy couldn't sit in front of

142
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: an iPad all day. He was having breakdowns, he was

143
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: having anxiety attacks. So we actually put him in a

144
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: Catholic school which was closed for one day during the pandemic.

145
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: And I think a lot of parents realized, you know,

146
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 1: we have to stand up. We're our kids best advocates.

147
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: So I have stories about that, about parents who decided

148
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 1: that they were going up against school boards to try

149
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: to make it a better place for their kids and

150
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: other kids. My husband is a firefighter. So one of

151
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: the stories in there is about Ray Pi for a

152
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 1: good friend of ours who sadly passed away a few

153
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: years ago from nine to eleven related illness, and he

154
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: spent his dying days going to Washington, d C. To

155
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: beg you know, lawmakers to pass laws and healthcare so

156
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: that our government would take care of those who were

157
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: dying after digging from the at ground zero for months.

158
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: So that's a story that I really identified with because

159
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: he was up against so much and he used his

160
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 1: power to be able to tell a story that he

161
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: was dying of the same cancer and that he knew

162
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 1: he was going to die, but he wanted to make

163
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: sure that healthcare was in place for his brothers and

164
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 1: sisters who were also dying of the same related illness. Well,

165
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 1: I love this because I think that so oftentimes people

166
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: feel like they can't do anything for themselves, that they're

167
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: stuck in a situation. And I think that the pandemic

168
00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 1: really gave us that moment where folks said, Okay, I

169
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: have to advocate for myself, and we have moments like

170
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: this throughout life. I had this moment when I was

171
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: diagnosed with breast cancer. And it's just funny because the

172
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: number of people in your life that say you have

173
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: to immediately do something, go with the first doctor. The

174
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: doctor is telling you this, and you realize in that moment,

175
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: I have to figure out what is best for me.

176
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: And I went from doctor to doctor until I got

177
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,719
Speaker 1: the story that was, Okay, this is not going to

178
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 1: be my story. This is how I'm going to go forward.

179
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: And you mentioned sending your son to Catholic school, that

180
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: same thing happened to us as well, because we were

181
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 1: in the public schools and my husband and I are

182
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: both working, and we thought, what is going to happen.

183
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 1: They're never going back to school. We don't know, so

184
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: we put our kids in private school. And it was

185
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 1: just I like to look at the blessings through crisis,

186
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 1: and that was a real blessing for us because that

187
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: changed their lives, just the way they interacted with other students,

188
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 1: with teachers, and it's sort of kind of pushed this

189
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: whole school choice movement across the country. I think that

190
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 1: these moments that you're talking about gave kind of empowered

191
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,599
Speaker 1: people to think about life in a different way and

192
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 1: take life by the reins on their own, don't you

193
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 1: thinks absolutely. I think the pandemic really shook us up

194
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 1: because we were kind of locked away. We were put

195
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: into a box, and we didn't want to be in

196
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,719
Speaker 1: that box anymore, and we saw what was going on.

197
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: The thing that made me crazy is we weren't able

198
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: to see our loved ones before they died. But yet

199
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 1: it was encouraged to go out and protest the Black

200
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: Lives Matter and listen, I'm all for protesting. You know,

201
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: you do what you have to do to raise awareness

202
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 1: for your cause. But the fact was they were giving

203
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 1: them privileges that we could not have. So, you know,

204
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: to be locked away and see all of this happening

205
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 1: in real time, it's like, you know, you were living

206
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: in a bizarro world. And we really did rise up

207
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: as parents, as people who were seeing these injustices being

208
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 1: done in front of our eyes and rising to the occasion.

209
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: And we were lucky that we were able to find

210
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: the Catholic school. I was a big belief in public school.

211
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: I went to public school too, so you know, and

212
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: we were lucky that we were able to have the

213
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: money to do that. Many people don't, and we are

214
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: supposed to be taking care of our kids, especially under

215
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: privileged children, and we did them a huge disservice like

216
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 1: we did for our elderly. So that was the premise

217
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: of the book. And you know there are great stories

218
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 1: in there as well that aren't listen out of tragedy

219
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: comes purpose, I believe, but you know there are also

220
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: a wonderful story about a woman who is going to

221
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: turn one hundred years old. And a story that really

222
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: inspired me to write the book was Maureen Flavin, who

223
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 1: was the one who gave the forecast that changed d

224
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: Day to a day later. It was the invasion was

225
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: supposed to happen a day earlier, and there was a

226
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: big storm on the horizon and she was forecasting from

227
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 1: a little lighthouse in the corner of Ireland, and that

228
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: information got to our Allied forces in General Eisenhower, and

229
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 1: he changed the date. So her forecast changed the trajectory

230
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: of the world. And you know, that story spoke to

231
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: me because as I was doing my advocacy Governor Cuomo disgrace.

232
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: Governor Cuomo and his administration were cutting me down because

233
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: of my profession a weather forecaster. She doesn't know anything,

234
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 1: because she's just the weather lady. But here's a woman

235
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: whose forecast changed the world and saved thousands of lives. So,

236
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 1: you know, it kind of came full circle. And I

237
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: you know, I have to say I've written several books.

238
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: They've all been very important, but this one is very

239
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: special to me because of all of these great people

240
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 1: and these stories that maybe people have never heard of before.

241
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: I had never heard that story, and I thought that

242
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 1: was an incredible story. And I love the way you

243
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: relate it to today and what you were able to

244
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 1: do and how important every person can be in the

245
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: role that they play and how it affects history. That

246
00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 1: to me is totally amazing. You also have a story

247
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 1: in there of a family who was encouraged to abort

248
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 1: their baby, and that to me is incredibly powerful because

249
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: I had a family member that was in the same situation.

250
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: They found out that the baby would be born without

251
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: a left hand, and it was interesting because immediately the

252
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: doctors were like, here are here's the information about abortion,

253
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: and there was this process of going through and saying, okay,

254
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: but this is a baby that's not going to know

255
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 1: any different. She's that'll be all she knows. Is life

256
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: without a left hand? And does that mean that that

257
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: life is not worth living? And just going through that

258
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 1: process of discovery and the love of this child and

259
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 1: watching this child come into the world and pushing back

260
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: on that establishment. But you had a similar story in there.

261
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: Will you share a little bit about that. Yeah, they

262
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: called they called the baby David because of David and

263
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: Goliath in the battle that they were going to face

264
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:57,439
Speaker 1: with this child. And it brings tears to my eyes

265
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: because she little literally David's mom told me about the

266
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: moment that she was in the hospital room with the

267
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,199
Speaker 1: doctor and saying, your baby is probably not going to live.

268
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 1: And if the baby does live and you give birth,

269
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: he's probably going to die within hours. And they did.

270
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: They gave her, you know, the options. You either have

271
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: the baby and he's probably going to die, or you know,

272
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: you terminate the pregnancy, and there was sort of a

273
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: leniency towards that. But they decided the dead Vilers that

274
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: they were going to have this child. You know, they're

275
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: a family of great faith, and they didn't even think

276
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: about terminating the pregnancy. And now baby David is, you know,

277
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: three and a half years old, and he's got a

278
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: lot of challenges, but he is the light of their life,

279
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 1: and and what a great opportunity for their other children

280
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: to learn from from baby David and all of the

281
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: challenges that he faces. But they say he's one of

282
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 1: the most joyous, laughing all the time. They can't imagine

283
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: their life without David. So it was a beautiful chapter

284
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 1: to write, and I'm glad I was able to tell

285
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 1: their story. I think it's so important to go back

286
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: to what you said. This isn't political. You are not

287
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 1: political about this. This is just sharing stories, and you

288
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: share stories that affect people on both sides of the aisle.

289
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: But you're really encouraging. And one of the things that

290
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: I think was so powerful to me during that time

291
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: of COVID because I was watching you. I was watching

292
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: you on Twitter, and I was watching these attacks. And

293
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: sometimes these attacks are so silly, and yet they still

294
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: can get to you deep down. I mean, I obviously

295
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 1: went through running for governor and people say ridiculous things,

296
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: but if you let them, they can take you down.

297
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 1: And there were the attacks that would say sanyere Lane.

298
00:15:55,800 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: Even Twitter, I noticed what saying, is this weather really?

299
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: What did you think when that happened? I knew they

300
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 1: were censoring me. Somehow there was I don't know how

301
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: they would do it. But if I would tweet every

302
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 1: time I would tweet something about Governor Cuomo or mandates

303
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 1: or something having to do with the seniors that died

304
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: in nursing homes, people would send me screenshots of my

305
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: tweet saying is this tweet about the weather? And they

306
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: had to say yes or no click on it. So

307
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: they were clearly trying to censor me or trying to

308
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: silence me that way by saying, hey, ladies, stay in

309
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 1: you're lane. You're only supposed to be talking about weather here.

310
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: I still don't know why that happened. I'd love Elon

311
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: Musk to look into that, because I don't know if

312
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 1: that happened to anyone else. People who so, people who

313
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: do the weather, people who have the sports, people that

314
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: do business, they can't have opinions something that has happened

315
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: to their family. Is this about sports? Is this about

316
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: the economy? I don't know if that happened to anybody else.

317
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 1: I didn't see it happened to anyone else, And that

318
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: was to me. Honestly, it was so bizarre because the

319
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,439
Speaker 1: first time and it kept happening because I saw it

320
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 1: happened several times, and it actually happened to me too.

321
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 1: When I would see your tweets that would come up

322
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: and I would think, how did they even know? I

323
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: mean that is that is pretty crazy to think that

324
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 1: they can pinpoint exactly what your profession is and decide

325
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,199
Speaker 1: whether or not you should be talking about something. But

326
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 1: I think that's also what people need to understand about

327
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 1: technology today. People can really these other countries can go

328
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: in and they can determine everything about you. And that's

329
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 1: why we do have concerns about social media, but we

330
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 1: really saw it targeting you, and so you had to

331
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: be very strong, because I think that is I think

332
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: it is so offensive for Twitter to say, you know,

333
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: are you out of your lane? But you were, you

334
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 1: were strong and you kept doing this. So what are

335
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,679
Speaker 1: your words of encouragement to other people who feel like

336
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: they're being attacked? And certainly anytime somebody steps out, whether

337
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: it is to run for office or just to speak

338
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: their mind or stand up for their child, I think

339
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 1: it's easy to get pushed out of the spotlight and

340
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,400
Speaker 1: pushed away. So how do you encourage people to stay

341
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: with it? I think now more than ever, we're finding

342
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 1: our voices. I think the pandemic one silver lining from

343
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,880
Speaker 1: that is that we are rising up and saying this.

344
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,239
Speaker 1: You know, this didn't feel right and we have to

345
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,200
Speaker 1: find out why. I would say, keep going, and in advocacy,

346
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: it's not a week, it's not a month, it's years.

347
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: It's a lifetime, right, And I have met so many

348
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,360
Speaker 1: wonderful families, you know, through our grief, we have met

349
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 1: families that have gone through the same thing, and they're

350
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: the ones that give purpose and give strength. Right, there's

351
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 1: strength in numbers. I found that if you have a

352
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,639
Speaker 1: message and it resonates and it's truthful, you're going to

353
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: find others that will stand with you to deliver that

354
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 1: message as well. And I think I think that's so important.

355
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: You know, the book is called I Am the Storm.

356
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: It's because you know that's saying. The devil whispers to

357
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: the warrior and says you're not strong enough to withstand

358
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 1: the storm. The warrior says, but I am the Storm.

359
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 1: And I think that that's what I carry with me

360
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: is I had truth on my side, I have the

361
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: angels on my side, and I had the tremendous support

362
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: of so many others that were lifting me up as well.

363
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 1: What was it like for your kids to see you

364
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 1: out there, because obviously they see you on TV all

365
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 1: the time and they know what your job is, but

366
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: they do see you as someone who focuses on whether too,

367
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 1: so suddenly they see you in a different capacity where

368
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 1: you really are going up against the governor. And that

369
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: changes things for children as well. And I think that's

370
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: something that people don't always think about. When you have

371
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,719
Speaker 1: kids and you're out in the spotlight like this, it

372
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: affects your children. I'm sure they were somewhat protected in

373
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: a Catholic school, but did they ever experience any pushback

374
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,360
Speaker 1: from that? That's a good question. I mean, as we

375
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: were going through it, I would tell them what I

376
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: was doing. I mean we were I had a home

377
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 1: studio at the time because we weren't coming into into

378
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 1: Fox during the pandemic. So I was lucky enough that

379
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: I had a great company that built a studio inside

380
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 1: my house in a spare room. And my kids would

381
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: hear me, right, I would do the weather and then

382
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 1: I would do another report about Andrew Cuomo and they

383
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 1: would come out and they're like, Andrew Cuomo is a

384
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: bad guy ray Mom, and I'm like, listen, I don't

385
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,479
Speaker 1: know what he's like as a person. I can just

386
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 1: tell you what I know and what he his leadership

387
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: did to our family. And I think they know that

388
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: what I was doing was important. They have not read

389
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 1: the book, you know, they're twelve and fourteen, but they

390
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,640
Speaker 1: know their mom is a strong lady and will stand up.

391
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 1: And I, you know, I write the small story in

392
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 1: there that is very relevant of my youngest son being

393
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,439
Speaker 1: bullied in school, and that was very tough because I

394
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: did everything I could as a parent. This was happening

395
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: in the Catholic school, by the way, after we put

396
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 1: him in. He was new and he was getting bullied

397
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: and he would come home crying. I did everything I

398
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 1: could in my power. I talked to the teachers, I

399
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 1: went into the principle and we did everything we possibly

400
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: could until one day the bully decided to target one

401
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 1: of his buddies, one of Theodora's buddies, and he stood

402
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 1: up for his friend. You know, he would come home

403
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 1: crying and not stand up for himself, but he stood

404
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 1: up for his friend in the schoolyard against this bully,

405
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: and he came home and told me that and how

406
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 1: proud he was, and I just thought to myself, my goodness.

407
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: If I if there's any lesson that I could give,

408
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:34,159
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's standing up for others. That's sometimes

409
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 1: more important. So, you know, I'm just proud of my children.

410
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: And of course I will be open and honest. They've

411
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: been to rallies with me. They you know, my husband

412
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,159
Speaker 1: has been to Albany with me, and someday, you know,

413
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 1: I will tell them the full story. I just want

414
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 1: to lead by example, you know. And and if at

415
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: the end of the day, if they're proud of their mom,

416
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 1: then man, that's the best compliment you could ever give me.

417
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 1: That is awesome. I love that. And I think girls

418
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 1: went through the same thing, and they watched some of this,

419
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 1: but they had the same question for me, because I

420
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 1: think that you can get really focused on what you're

421
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: doing as an adult and your kids are kind of

422
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,120
Speaker 1: on the sidelines wondering what exactly is happening. So they

423
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,919
Speaker 1: said the same thing about Gretchen Whitmer. They one morning,

424
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: I remember they said, do we hate Gretchen Whitmer. And

425
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: it was like this moment where I'm like, Okay, this

426
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: is very important for me to explain. And I said, no,

427
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,879
Speaker 1: we don't. And I said, and I don't, you know,

428
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:31,719
Speaker 1: I don't know her personally at that point, I had

429
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: never met her. But I said, I don't like what

430
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: she wants to do with the state, so we call

431
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 1: those her policies. That's what I don't like. But I

432
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: don't I don't not like her as a person. In fact,

433
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 1: we should continue praying for her. And so it is

434
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 1: a teaching moment. And I think that sometimes as a parent,

435
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,360
Speaker 1: you can get really focused on one thing and then

436
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: your kids are always there to bring you back to reality.

437
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 1: And people used to say, are you getting a big

438
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: head doing this? And I would say, I have four

439
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 1: girls in my house. There's no way to get a

440
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 1: big head because they're conso darrying everybody a part, you know.

441
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 1: But it was good too, because you're that role model

442
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: and you have to make sure that your kids see

443
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: something that is positive and that you're fighting. Like I said,

444
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: when I look at you, I see joy and that

445
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: just really emanates from your personality, and that, I think

446
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 1: is why you have so many people who come to

447
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 1: you with their stories and trust you to tell their stories,

448
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: and you tell them quite well, so thank you for

449
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:32,359
Speaker 1: doing that. And tell people where they can get the book. Well, online,

450
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: you can go to the regular places like Amazon and

451
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,159
Speaker 1: Barnes and Noble, and they are in the bookstores. For

452
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 1: a while, they weren't in the bookstores, but that's a

453
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: completely separate story. We had a hard time getting them

454
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: into bookstores, but they're there now. But I will say

455
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,199
Speaker 1: that if you buy the book, you know, give it

456
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: to someone else, pass it along. And I love when

457
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 1: people tell me they went to the library to get

458
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 1: the book, right. I love the process of writing books, Tutor,

459
00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: but to sell it as a really tough thing, you know,

460
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 1: and we're in really tough economic times right now. So

461
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: I always say that if you have the book and

462
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: you enjoyed it, pass it along to someone else, and

463
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: that would make me really happy. Well, I love that,

464
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,639
