1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio. 2 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 2: There's a lot of ways to look at luck. I 3 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:12,640 Speaker 2: often look at luck in terms of the things which 4 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 2: are probabilities, but it just kind of comes up, you know, 5 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,920 Speaker 2: against you from time to time. Like, for example, there 6 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 2: was a story on the website at Coast tocoastam dot 7 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 2: com about the cell your cell phones going off as 8 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 2: a result of that big emergency transmission they had earlier 9 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 2: this week, and the people who are Amish who had 10 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 2: secret phones who were busted because those phones started going 11 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 2: off regardless whether they had the ringtone off or whatever. 12 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,200 Speaker 2: It's like, that's a little unlucky. And then I see 13 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: the story about I don't know if you saw the video, 14 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 2: I would recommend it if you go to coastcoastam dot 15 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 2: com about people who are on this little train in 16 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: Colorado kind of sounds like a little tourist train and 17 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 2: the and they get video of what appears to be 18 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 2: bigfoot walking across the brush not too far off the 19 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 2: railroad tracks. They get a pretty clear image of whatever 20 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 2: it is. Now, maybe that's a hoax, maybe that's all 21 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 2: been pre prepared, Maybe it's whatever, But that's lucky, right 22 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: that they happen to have a cell phone camera in 23 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,320 Speaker 2: their hand as something like that is happening. How do you, 24 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 2: in generally, how do you look at luck? 25 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 3: I think, I like to paraphrase Thomas Jefferson, is the 26 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 3: harder I work, the luckier I get. Yeah, I don't 27 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 3: you know. I mean it's like winning the lottery. You've 28 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 3: actually got to buy the ticket to win, because you 29 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 3: know a lot of people I wish I could win 30 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 3: the lottery, or a lot of times when I'm on 31 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 3: callin shows, people call in and they mistake me being 32 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 3: a medium, which is communicating with spirits, for being a 33 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 3: fortune teller, and they say, well, will I find a 34 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 3: new job and will I find a love in my life? 35 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 2: Right? 36 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 3: That's what are you doing about it? Well? Nothing, like 37 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 3: you create your own luck in many situations. And then 38 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 3: there's times like you're talking about, where you could be 39 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,399 Speaker 3: in a particular place at a particular time and something happens. 40 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 3: The question then, Ian, and we've talked about this before 41 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 3: the last time, I is synchronicity, because sometimes you will 42 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 3: find yourself in a particular situation at a precise moment 43 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 3: which affects the rest of your life. And sometimes that 44 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 3: can be really good, and sometimes that can be really negative. 45 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 3: My dad, the Navy Cloas, used to say to me 46 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 3: that your life can change in a second. So let's 47 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 3: say that you make an improper left turn, you're driving 48 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 3: into an intersection, and you get into a horrific collision. 49 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 3: That one second has changed life in a terrible way. 50 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 3: Or perhaps you could be in a job interview and 51 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 3: they throw a question at you out of left field, 52 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 3: and you give the answer that really impresses your potential employer, 53 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 3: and then they hire you for a great job. So 54 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 3: that one second has changed your life in a positive way. 55 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 2: I see that. As long as we're quoting on luck. 56 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 2: I think it was Seneca, right, the Roman philosopher. I 57 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: think it was Seneca, who is originally I believe he's 58 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: credited with luck. Is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. 59 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 2: And so the people on the train, they didn't panic, 60 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 2: they didn't scream, they didn't an opportunity to take this 61 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: video of bigfoot or what appears to be bigfoot. They 62 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 2: had a camera in their hand and they did. It's 63 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 2: that's preparation meeting opportunity and I like all that. I 64 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 2: think what's interesting is when luck gets in your head 65 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 2: as and you know, to your point about the lottery. 66 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 2: You know, people talk about luck in that way, and 67 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 2: I say, luck would be winning the lottery without having 68 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 2: bought a ticket. That's just like, that's a miracle. 69 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 3: That's not Yeah, that's not luck, that's amazing. 70 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: That's it's crazy. 71 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 2: So even if you have a one in ten billion 72 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 2: chance of something, it could happen. So but I think 73 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 2: that kind of gets in some people's heads, right, and 74 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 2: they think of themselves early on in light They start 75 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: thinking of themselves as unlucky, as born under a bad sign, 76 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 2: that that somehow the universe is against their own success, 77 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 2: and it's hard to break people free from that perspective 78 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:45,919 Speaker 2: once it's become ingrained. 79 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 3: I couldn't agree with you more because once you develop 80 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 3: a mindset, whether it's positive, positive, or negative, a negative 81 00:04:54,560 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 3: mindset seldom results in positive results. And when in my 82 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 3: work both as a medium and then when I was 83 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 3: practicing law full time, and I would I dealt with 84 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 3: both criminal cases and civil complex civil litigation, and there 85 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 3: would be clients I had that were physically injured or 86 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 3: they had severe illnesses, perhaps cancer or something like that. 87 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 3: And the ones that seemed to make it the longest 88 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 3: or even defeat thee the illnesses or the injuries, were 89 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 3: determined to do it. They had that positive mindset, I'm 90 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 3: going to beat this, I'm going to do that. The 91 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 3: ones that gave up seemed to go right away. And certainly, 92 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 3: you know, you can only have so much control over 93 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 3: something like cancer. But the thing is, a positive mindset 94 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 3: has a lot to do with your success in life. 95 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 3: Because there's a lot of people like you just said 96 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 3: that go around with this, Oh, I was born under 97 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 3: an unlucky sign. Nothing ever works out for me. So 98 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 3: they flood their head negativity and then everything that they're 99 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 3: looking at is through this filter, which you know, in 100 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 3: other words, it's hard to be optimistic. Through misty optics. 101 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 3: You're giving yourself not a head start, but you're always 102 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 3: at the rear of the pack because you're putting that 103 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 3: intention out there. So luck is, I think it's part 104 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 3: of our life, but it's also how we shape things 105 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 3: and perceive things, and luck is oftentimes and that's why 106 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 3: we're talking about pride to the thirteenth, and there's a 107 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 3: number of superstitions and phobias out there which you know 108 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 3: people are so afraid of certain things. But once again, 109 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 3: once you begin to understand and approach a fear, approach 110 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 3: a superstition, what we find in the study of ancient 111 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 3: mysteries and paranormal phenomenon, in fear based beliefs, there is 112 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 3: some factual basis which led to what that fear, what 113 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 3: that phobia, what that superstition is. 114 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 2: And in this case, it does seem like the legend 115 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: of October the thirteenth is the truth of why this 116 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: date looms so large for. 117 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 3: Us well, absolutely, and that's why it's such an honor 118 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 3: being on coast to coast on Friday October thirteenth, because 119 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 3: because seven hundred and sixteen years ago, on Friday October 120 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 3: thirteenth of thirteen oh seven, seven hundred and sixteen years 121 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 3: to the day, is when it is widely believed that 122 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 3: the fear, this the phobia of Friday the thirteenth originated. 123 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 3: And I love the how the psychologist. There's two technical 124 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 3: terms paris skivy deca triphobia, which is the term, and 125 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,119 Speaker 3: frigatriska decaphobia, which is the Latin term, both of which 126 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 3: mean fear of Friday the thirteenth, So these are this 127 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 3: is a legitimate fear for a lot of people. 128 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 2: And there's just trisca dicophobia. People every time thirteen comes up, 129 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 2: they think it's unlucky. Yes, right, it's just the number itself, 130 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 2: not even attaching it to a date or a day 131 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 2: of the week. 132 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 3: Well, there's a lot to it though. According to numerologists, 133 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 3: twelve is considered the number of completeness. There's twelve astrological signs, 134 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 3: twelve months in a year, twelve hours on a clock. 135 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 3: In ancient Greece, there were twelve main gods on Mount Olympus. 136 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 3: In Judaism, there were twelve tribes of Israel. In Christianity 137 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 3: there were twelve apostles of Jesus. So twelve was always 138 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 3: looked at as a number of completeness, a high standard, 139 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 3: but the number thirteen was irregular because it considered to 140 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 3: upset the balance of twelve. And the belief where this 141 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 3: came from may have originated in Norse mythology and then 142 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 3: mirrored in early Christian beliefs about the Last Supper that 143 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 3: having thirteen people seated at a table, one will die 144 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 3: within a year, and according to legend, there are thirteen 145 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 3: witches in a covin. But you know, this may sound irrational, 146 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 3: but then again, think about it again. And for all 147 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,839 Speaker 3: the coast to coast listeners, most cities don't have a 148 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,439 Speaker 3: thirteenth street. Hotels have no thirteenth floor because many people 149 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 3: won't stay on that floor. 150 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 2: But I'm so I'm so glad that tradition stopped. There 151 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 2: was a time when that's always true. And you can 152 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 2: almost mark buildings at a time when people started saying, 153 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 2: or architects or it's just saying, pish posh, there is 154 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 2: a thirteenth floor. We might as well call it the 155 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 2: thirteenth floor, because you count them up from the ground, 156 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 2: there is going to be thirteenth floor. It's not like 157 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 2: you magically skip a floor, I know. 158 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 3: But then again, of all the NASA manned missions to 159 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 3: the Moon, it was Apollo thirteen, right that had the 160 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 3: disaster and thanks to the genius of NASA. And I 161 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 3: have to put a plug in here for my dad 162 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 3: who has passed on. He was one of the team, 163 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 3: one of the Aerospace cool members that helped figure out 164 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 3: how to get Apollo thirteen back. 165 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 2: So whip smart. 166 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, in that situation, that was about as bad 167 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 3: luck as you're going to get. You had had an 168 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 3: oxygen tank blow up on the command module, so clearly 169 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 3: there was no way that the mission could be sustained. 170 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 3: And you know, I'm sure we've all heard or seen excerpts, 171 00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:01,319 Speaker 3: if not seen the movie Apollo thirteen. They actually transmitted Houston, 172 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 3: we have a problem. And I remember being I was 173 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 3: really young, and my dad came home from work and 174 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 3: he said, we got to figure something out tonight. He 175 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 3: came home to eat dinner and he goes, you know, 176 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 3: to my mom, I got to go back back in. 177 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,599 Speaker 3: He said, we got to figure out something tonight or 178 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 3: these guys are going to die. And I said, but Dad, 179 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 3: on TV, they said it's going to be okay. He goes, 180 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 3: that's what they're telling us. We don't come up with 181 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 3: something tonight, and they did. And so there's a situation 182 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 3: that involves really bad luck. But then when you put 183 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 3: the best and brightest on, okay, instead of caving into 184 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 3: the fear, let's analyze the situation, take all the factors, 185 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 3: what do we have to work with, and you come 186 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 3: up with a solution. So, you know, thirteen, yes, maybe 187 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 3: that was a coincidence, but I don't believe in coincidences, 188 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 3: but it was Apollo thirteen that almost didn't make it. 189 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 1: You know that. 190 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 2: It's funny as you spell that out like that, and 191 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 2: I'm I'm inclined to think that this is what there's 192 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 2: that certain amount of magical thinking goes into that, and 193 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 2: I'm not. But but often is sort of a reflection 194 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 2: that people are focused on one thing, and in a 195 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 2: way it kind of helps them deal with the world. 196 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 2: If if they can avoid thirteen, then they then they 197 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 2: are actively trying to avoid problems, or they're actively trying 198 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,719 Speaker 2: to avoid bad luck, and or if they really look 199 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 2: at October, you know, if they look at Friday the 200 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 2: thirteenth and I think, well, I'm just going to stay 201 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 2: in bed tonight. You're going to stay close to home. 202 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 2: You know, maybe that's its own kind of way of 203 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 2: acknowledging that the rest of my life is so good, 204 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 2: this is what I'm going to step aside for and 205 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 2: not necessarily be so overwhelmed by thirteen that they can't 206 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 2: step outside. You see what I'm saying. It becomes almost 207 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 2: like a kind of symbolism for all that could go wrong, 208 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 2: and so you try to avoid it, just like we 209 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 2: should normally. 210 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 3: And there's actually statistics to back up what you just said. 211 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 3: According to the late Donald Dossi of the Stress Management 212 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 3: Center in Phobia Institute, Nashville, Carolina, twenty one million Americans 213 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 3: fear Friday the thirteenth, to the point where they won't 214 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,439 Speaker 3: leave the house. They avoid normal routines, they won't drive, 215 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 3: they won't fly. They're absolutely paralyzed by this fear. And 216 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 3: it's been estimated in that nearly nine hundred million dollars 217 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 3: in business is lost every Friday the thirteen. Wow, because 218 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 3: and it shows the studies show that there's fewer accidents, 219 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 3: feer fires, fewer thefts because people don't go out. So there, 220 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 3: you know, there's a flip side to it. Yeah, which 221 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 3: isn't almost a billion in revenue on Friday the thirty 222 00:13:55,920 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 3: that's probably made up on Saturday fourteen. But because people 223 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 3: don't you know a lot of people won't go out, 224 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 3: they're not driving as much, there's less mishaps. Yeah, So 225 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 3: you know, it's funny, it's it's it's you know, there's 226 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 3: this oh it's bad luck. But then again it does 227 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 3: translate into into actual actual dollars. 228 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 2: One of my children, my oldest son was born on 229 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 2: Friday the thirteenth, and somebody told me, well, now from 230 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 2: now on Friday the thirteenth is your lucky day. And 231 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 2: it turned, it turns the whole thing on its head, 232 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 2: that that Friday, that Friday the thirteenth, at any time, 233 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 2: any thirteen is now your lucky number because your child 234 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 2: survived on the thirteenth of a Friday. Someday I think, 235 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I never really put much faith in it anyway, 236 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 2: but I thought, yeah, I've always felt very lucky as 237 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 2: a result of that. 238 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: Listen to more Coast to Coast AM every weeknight at 239 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: one am Eastern, and go to Coast to coastam dot 240 00:14:58,560 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: com for more
