Tune into a Moment of Zen Saturday nights from nine
to ten pm on seven to ten wor the Voice
of New York.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Welcome back, beautiful ChRI State area. You're listening to a
Moment of Zen right here on seven ten woar the
Voice of New York iHeartRadio. I'm your host Zen Sam's
Today Live from headquarters. We have one impressive guest, Frank Morano.
From national radio to local politics. Can he transform Staten Island?
That is the question We're going to dive in to

(04:10):
all the good stuff today, and he's been a national
voice in talk radio, but his roots remain firmly planted
in Staten Island. He served on community board three, worked
in city council, and testified on election reform, all with
a deep passion for public service. Now he's making the
leap from behind the mic to the campaign trail as
he runs for New York City Council. Today, we'll talk

(04:31):
about his transition from broadcasting to politics, to issues facing
Staten Islanders, and what his national radio career is going
to look like. Welcome to the show, Frank.

Speaker 4 (04:39):
Hello, Zen, It's great to be here. You know what
a fan I am of your show and of you personally.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Thank you. Now let's get into this few research study
found that over fifty percent of Americans trust local media
personalities more than politicians, which makes your transition from radio
host to candidate all the more interesting. You've built a
career giving a voice to everyday New Yorkers on air.
What made you decide that now was the time to
step away from the studio and run for up.

Speaker 4 (05:04):
It's such a good question, and honestly, it was unlike
a lot of people that run for office. It was
a very difficult question that I went back and forth
with for a while because I love what I would do,
and I could easily do it for hopefully the rest
of my life and be very pleased.

Speaker 5 (05:19):
But a couple of things happened.

Speaker 4 (05:21):
One the seat that I'm running for, the seat that
was previously belonging to Joe Borelli, was open. He was
term limited, so I was concerned about who was going
to fill Joe's shoes. It's my Hometown's the district I've
lived in just about my entire life. Additionally, everyone that
I grew up with, all of my siblings, all my cousins,
all my friends growing up, every single one of them

(05:43):
moved off of Staten Island as soon as they were
able to do so or shortly thereafter. We have a
three year old. As you know, he really looks up
to your daughter, Alexa, and I really would love for
him to stay in Staten Island and have the same
kind of pride in Staten Island that I do. And
I'd like to be able to say to him when
he's an adult, that I did whatever I could to

(06:05):
keep you here. So that's basically it. I want to
give this my all. I want to leave it all
out on the field, not only the campaign, but the
job itself, so that I could say to Carmine when
he's an adult, hey, I did my best to keep
you here.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
Those are great motivations, and not many people trade a
national platform for the grind of local politics. So you
must really believe in what you're fighting for. Frank, I
truly believe that you are so passionate about this campaign,
and you would have never left radio if it didn't
mean this much to you. It's going to be tough
stepping back, but hey, maybe politics is just another way
to keep the conversation going. Right now, let's chat Staten

(06:39):
Island fight for fair resources. So Staten Island gets forty
percent less public transit funding per capita than other boroughs,
even though it's residents rely heavily on express buses and ferries.
What's your plan to bring Staten Island the resources it deserves,
whether in transit, infrastructure or city services.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
I'm so glad that you mentioned that, because that really
is the fundamental reason that now, not only I wanted
to do this, but I think a lot of Staten
Island elected officials are so motivated to make a difference
because it often seems like Staten Island's got five percent
of the city's population. We pay twenty percent of the taxes,
but we have one percent of the influence. And the

(07:15):
area that you just mentioned express buses is a perfect example.
You know, once they instituted congestion pricing, which I'm totally
against that I'm going to fight really hard to roll back.
Once they instituted congestion pricing for the subways and buses
and the rest of the city, what they did was
they said, all right, if you take twelve subway rides
or twelve bus rides in a week, the rest of

(07:35):
the bus rides are on us. The rest of the
subway rides are on us. But in Staten.

Speaker 5 (07:39):
Island, you know what you get.

Speaker 4 (07:41):
If you take twelve express bus rides.

Speaker 5 (07:43):
You get nothing. You get nothing.

Speaker 4 (07:45):
So it's yet another example of Staten Island being given
the short end of the stick. Now, part of that
is because we're outnumbered by the rest of the city.
I'd love to say that if you elect me, all
of Staten Island's problems are going to go away. Realistically,
that's not the case. What I can tell you is that.
But I'm going to be the loudest voice and the
hardest working elected official Staten Island has ever seen in

(08:07):
terms of fighting for those resources. You mentioned infrastructure, which
is another important one, especially what's going on now with
City of Yes. The City Council and the mayor push
through the worst named program ever. They call it City
of Yes. It should really be called the Neighborhood Destruction Act,
because what they're going to do is destroy old school
neighborhoods like we have in Staten Island by dramatically up

(08:30):
zoning and dramatically increasing density. Staten Island doesn't have the
infrastructure for that. We don't have the sidewalks, we don't
have the sewers, we don't have the power infrastructure. I'm
going to make sure that every single time a bureaucrat
makes a decision about Staten Island, they're going to have
to answer to me about why they're not making these

(08:51):
promises into realities when it comes to Staten Islanders.

Speaker 3 (08:54):
Yeah, and if Staten Islanders keep getting short change, they
need a stronger advocate just like you, and I know
you know that You're going to make sure they're finally heard.
So kudos. And it's interesting because when you talk about crime,
right while New York City saw on overall six percent
decline in major crimes in twenty twenty three, Staten Island
reported a fifteen percent spike in property crime, a major

(09:14):
major concern for local families. How will you approach crime
prevention and law enforcement policies to make Staten Island safer?

Speaker 4 (09:20):
This is such an important question and where I live
in the South Shore of Staten Island, there's a huge
issue with not only home invasions.

Speaker 5 (09:28):
But auto theft.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
There's two types of auto theft, where obviously just stealing
the cars or where they steal the catalytic converters. And
what's happening. What we're seeing is people are number one
looking for unlocked cars, and if they can find the
unlocked cars, they're stealing them and bringing them to in
most cases New Jersey. If they can't find an unlocked car,
what they do is they break into the house with

(09:52):
the attempt of finding the car keys and then use
those keys to take the car or to take the
car to catalytic converter or other property. What I'd like
to do, and I've already spoken with the DA's office
and the local precinct about this is set up checkpoints
that disincentivize these criminals from going to New Jersey and
coming to Staten Island going back to New Jersey with

(10:13):
a stolen car. If they know they're going to have
to pass a police checkpoint and offer some sort of
an explanation as to what they're doing, then you're going
to see that stop at least on Staten Island. You're
going to see these folks go elsewhere. So that's part
of it. It's a refocusing on the police and the
DA's office in terms of police checkpoints and having an
auto theft task force. Lastly, i'd love to see, and

(10:36):
this is kind of revolutionary, and I don't know that
we've seen anything like this, some sort of collaborative effort
between the New Jersey police departments, both municipal and state,
and the NYPD, because that's what's going on here.

Speaker 5 (10:50):
This is one problem.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
It's not a New York problem or a New Jersey problem,
but we're treating it as separate problems. We've got to
get the New York and New Jersey police departments working together.
I'd suggest a collaborative task force. I'm going to work
to make that happen.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
Yeah, public safety is a top priority for any leader, actually,
and your approach, this one that you specifically just mapped out,
could actually set the tone for how safe Staten Islanders
feel every day. So that's I'm glad you've thought all
of this through, and of course that's part of the
job that you've taken on right now. Over development versus
smart growth, this is kind of you know, the ying

(11:25):
and the yang. Let's talk about this. So Staten Island's
population has increased over ten percent in the past decade,
but many neighborhoods still feel overcrowded and undersupported. What's your
stance on development? How do you grow without sacrificing the
character of Staten Island.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
This is an issue that I've been working on for
the last twenty four years. I'm not against development at all.
I'm not against significant development. It creates jobs and creates
things like houses where people can live and afford to
stay on Staten Island. What I'm against is irresponsible development.
What we saw in the early to mid nineties especially,

(12:03):
is you saw people selling their houses and where one
house one stood, they would turn into seven houses basically
even thinner than you. These houses you turn sideways, you
can't even see the house, that's how small it is.
And the problem is that these houses, these properties are
so out of character with the history and the culture

(12:25):
of the neighborhood. So I want development, I just want
to make sure development is in keeping with what the
neighborhood actually looks like and what residents want. Quite frankly,
in my neighborhood, for instance, where we have mostly one
in two family houses, we don't want to see a
situation where there's an apartment building with fourteen units of housing.
And I fear that some of the other people in

(12:47):
city Hall that that's exactly what they want. I'm going
to push to stop that. And that's where a council
member can really be effective. People ask how can you
be effective? One in fifty one. You do have the
ability to control a lot of zoning in your district,
and it's called member deference, and that's something I'd work
to preserve.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
Yeah, smart, smart growth is essential. If development isn't done
with careful planning, it would without a doubt harm the neighborhoods.
That makes that n Island unique. So your approach is very,
very calculated, and I'm glad that you're putting all of
this on the table because you have to balance this,
which brings me to the next point, balancing politics, career
and family. Right, So this is it's all about the balance.

(13:28):
And studies show political candidates with younger children report forty
percent higher stress levels. And you've got it, and you've
got a three year old at home. How does being
a father to Carmine influence your perspective on policies? And
how are you balancing it all?

Speaker 4 (13:42):
You know, that has been the biggest struggle that I've had,
balancing balancing working every night and campaigning during the day,
which is basically like two full time jobs while trying
to be a decent father and husband. Every time, you know,
I'm leaving to go to a campaign appearance while Carmine
is still awake, and he says, you know, where are

(14:05):
you going, dad? And I explained him where I'm going,
and he says, you know, something like, but I want
you to hang out with me or I thought you
were going to play with me. It makes me want
to cry. I'm getting a little choked up just thinking
about it. And that's been the greatest challenge that I've had.
I'm doing the best that I can, and we'll see.
I'm hoping that after the election that things will that
some sense of balance will be able to be restored.

(14:27):
And maybe once i have more of a normal schedule
and I'm not working at night and campaigning during the day,
I'll be able to be a little be home a
little bit more and not neglect my family life. But
in terms of perspective, that's the reason I'm doing this.
You know, I want Carmine to have a future. I'm
concerned about his parks. I'm concerned about his schools. I'm

(14:49):
concerned about the neighborhood that he's going to grow up in,
and I want him to have the same type of
pride in our neighborhood and our borrow that I had
growing up and that I still have. But I see
too few Staten Islanders have, and I see too few
Stanton Islanders have.

Speaker 3 (15:02):
Yeah, family always plays a big part in shaping policies.
If you're thinking about the next generation, it shows in
your decisions. And I mean, you've helped raise tens of
thousands of dollars for causes like children's cancer research and
the tunnel to Towers Foundation. Let's chat philanthropy. Will philanthropy
continue to be a major focus for you if elected?
And how can city government better support charitable initiatives?

Speaker 4 (15:24):
So more than ever, one of the things that I'm
really looking forward to as a city council member is
you get what's called discretionary spending and you can fund
local nonprofit groups in your district. So what I'd like
to do is fund a lot of groups that maybe
have been neglected, or even if they haven't been neglected,
could use a little bit more funding. You know, we've

(15:45):
got a real problem in Staten Island, and I think
it's a national problem quite frankly, with a huge uptick
in children with autism. On our block right now, there
are three boys that have autism. Now that's just on
one block. Now I'm seeing this in pockets all over
Staten Island. So there's a lot of services needed for

(16:06):
children with autism. And as these children become young adults
and adults and their parents start passing away, these are
going to be adults with autism, spectrum disorder and various
forms of autism. And I want to be able to
be able to deliver for them and do something for them,
So that's a part of it. But you're able to
actually allocate funding from the city council two specific nonprofits.

(16:31):
And obviously I have a soft spot for youth sports,
the Staten Island Soccer League, baseball. It never seems like
there's enough fields for all the children that want to
play ball. I want to be able to put that
into a reality, getting more ball fields, more recreational activity,
but also be there for special needs children.

Speaker 3 (16:51):
Yeah, yeah, you said it, and giving back is at
the heart of true leadership, and if elected, I'm sure
you'll make sure that continues to be a priority.

Speaker 5 (16:59):
No question.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
We are officially at the end of this interview. I
could go on and on for another thirty minutes with
you because quite frankly, no pun intended, I love speaking.

Speaker 4 (17:08):
To you, Frank Well, I'm speaking frankly all the time,
and I love speaking to you too.

Speaker 5 (17:12):
I hope we can do this again.

Speaker 3 (18:25):
Welcome Back, beautiful Tri State area. You're listening to a
moment of Zen right here on seven ten WR, the
voice of New York iHeartRadio. Right here at iHeart Headquarters.
Today we have an incredible guest in the Hydration with
Heart segment, brought to you by the one and only
Once Upon a Coconut. For nearly three decades, Scary Jones
has been a powerhouse in radio, making millions laugh every

(18:46):
morning on the nationally syndicated Elvis Durant in the Morning Show.
But he's more than just the voice behind epic prank calls.
He's a nightlife guru, podcasting trailblazer, and a walking talk
in New York City entertainment guide. He's pulling off legendary
phone taps, hosting the Brooklyn Boys podcast, or discovering the
hottest spots in town. Scary brings humor, heart and hustle

(19:08):
to everything he does. Today, we're diving into the art
of staying relevant in entertainment, the wildest behind the scenes stories,
and how Skiy has mastered the game of media. Welcome
to the show, Superstar.

Speaker 5 (19:19):
Wow, that's a lot to live up to.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
Zen.

Speaker 3 (19:23):
Oh, I'm so excited to have you on let's get
it going.

Speaker 5 (19:27):
It's great to be here. Thank you so much. I
was when you asked me to be on the show.
I was like, you should seriously want me. Why are
you talking to me for?

Speaker 6 (19:35):
Why don't you talk to one of my other coworkers
of people you know? And you're like, Na, Na, Na,
you I want you?

Speaker 5 (19:40):
Why do you want me?

Speaker 3 (19:42):
I want you because I want to chat. Evolution of
a radio icon and longevity in entertainment is no easy feat,
my dear, especially in radio, where where trends really do
change faster than a New York minute. I mean, but
here you are, nearly thirty years later, still at the
top of your game. And when you look at this
statistics scary. Statistically, the average career span of a radio

(20:03):
host is only eight to ten years. Yet you've shattered
that norm, reaching millions upon millions of listeners across seventy
five stations. What's been your secret to staying fresh, funny
and relevant in an industry that's just constantly evolving.

Speaker 5 (20:17):
Wow? Wow, that's a loaded question.

Speaker 6 (20:19):
First of all, I have to I have to say
thank you to Elvis for you know, Elvis is kind
of the glue and he's the ring master, and he's
probably the reason why I'm still here thirty years later,
right because he basically assembled this crew back in nineteen
ninety six.

Speaker 5 (20:38):
Right.

Speaker 6 (20:38):
Our morning show itself, the Elvis Rand Morning Show, is
turning twenty nine this May. We're friends on air and
we're friends off the air, which really helps.

Speaker 5 (20:47):
This wasn't an arranged marriage.

Speaker 6 (20:49):
We were all put together, and you know, we stuck together,
the core group.

Speaker 5 (20:54):
Of us, and we've added some people along the way.

Speaker 6 (20:57):
So so for longevity purposes, would have to check the
box and say, you know, thankfully Elvis has been here
to answer the other part of your question about staying
fresh and funny, well, staying fresh, no offense. I'm gonna
fend a lot of people out here, but here we go.
I stayed single and I never had any kids. I'm

(21:18):
sorry I had to be said. I don't have any
mileage on me. I've never I've never had you know, listen,
I know what I see what it's like to be
a parent for my brother, my sister and my parents
raising us and so basically being out there and being
able to do my own thing in my own space
and hang with who I want, you know, and and

(21:40):
not have kids in the mix. Maybe selfish to some,
but for me, that's one of the things in my
life that I use as an advantage because I'm able to,
you know, use more of my money on traveling, on
hanging out with friends.

Speaker 5 (21:55):
I've got more time for them. I've got more time.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
Yeah, you definitely have it all all mapped out here,
the single route, the no kids route. But yeah, talk
to me about your girlfriend.

Speaker 6 (22:05):
Yeah, my girlfriend, Robin, she's a rock because and she
puts up with me. I don't know, you know, she
basically allows me to do what I want to do
when you know, and she does her thing, I do mine.
We're very highly independent when the time that we hang
together is quality time. And you know, all I could
tell you is that I wouldn't change it for the world.

Speaker 5 (22:27):
You know a lot of people. But then again, there's
other people listening, right, They're like, oh.

Speaker 6 (22:30):
Wait a second, but I but having kids is such
a wonderful thing, it's so reful.

Speaker 3 (22:35):
It's not for you.

Speaker 5 (22:36):
It's just not for me.

Speaker 7 (22:38):
You.

Speaker 3 (22:38):
Let's talk about your legendary prank calls. Okay, so the
phone tap has become a staple of morning radio and
your character, mister Michael Oppenheimer is pure comedy gold. You've
heard that, But here's a fun fact. Studies show that
pranks trigger dopamine release, making people feel more engaged and connected.

(23:00):
Have you ever pulled off a prank that went so
off the rails you thought this might be the one
that gets me canceled.

Speaker 6 (23:06):
I mean, let's go back in the day, because we've
been doing these since two thousand and three.

Speaker 5 (23:11):
But a lot of those beginning years, we were ruthless.

Speaker 6 (23:14):
I was, I know, I would say anything, and you know,
to you know, to the point where the cops were called,
and because people believe the scenario, and then I would
they put me on the phone a cop and the
I'm like, this is a joke, you know, so you know,
you don't. Those are the ones that you'll never hear
because we never got permission to air them, and they'll

(23:36):
never you know, see the light of day. But you know,
we've had we've broken up relationships before I went to
bed feeling awful, you know, and not being able to
sleep because relationship. Well, listen, all the jokes, all the
pranks always came from the audience over those years, right
all these years, they they start with an email to
us saying how they want a trick and play a

(23:58):
joke on a loved one in their life, and they'll
give us a scenario that's plausible. And so you know,
it takes time to have gotten these you know, you know,
to get these pranks. I mean we sometimes we have
hours of editing to do and you know, people only
hear like a three minute call, so it's highly edited.
So but but yeah, we've we've had issues over it,

(24:18):
you know, over the years, like you know, but we've.

Speaker 5 (24:21):
Toned it down a lot. You know, it's a different society.

Speaker 3 (24:25):
So now let's talk about podcasting and the Brooklyn Boys boom.
So podcasting has exploded right now, there are over four
and a half million podcasts worldwide and those are just
the reported numbers, but only a small percentage break through
the noise. The Brooklyn Boys podcast isn't just successful. It
was nominated for Best Comedy Podcast at the iHeart Podcast Awards.
That's major scary. At what point did you realize, Okay,

(24:48):
this isn't just a fun side project, it's a movement.

Speaker 5 (24:50):
Well it did start as a hobby, right, it was.

Speaker 6 (24:53):
It was me along with David Brody who at the
time was on our Elvis Duran show as our writer
and and also one of our producers, and the two
of us just said, look, there are a lot of
things that we like to talk about that maybe never
make it on the air, or maybe we want to
expand on it on our own time, because we know
broadcast radio has tiny, little time capsules of things. And

(25:16):
then we move on. It's every all forward momentum. With
a podcast, you can marinate in it for an hour.
You could just open up one topic and go and
so we thought that that that's the reason why we
wanted to start this side project. And about a year
and a half later, maybe even less than a year
and a half later, we were nominated at the first
iHeartRadio Podcast Awards in the for Best Comedy, and I'm like, wow,

(25:41):
we're going up against Conan O'Brien and Joe Rogan and
what world is this? And they flew us to la
and I was on that flight that I really realized
that this could be something more than just two guys
shooting with each other in our spare time, which is
how we treated it.

Speaker 5 (25:59):
And six or seven years later, here we are.

Speaker 6 (26:02):
We're still doing The Brooklyn Boys you know, podcasting has
become much much more.

Speaker 5 (26:07):
Important in society.

Speaker 6 (26:10):
The recorded format of being able to just say be
unapologetically you and just say what's on your mind.

Speaker 5 (26:19):
I think that's more valuable than ever.

Speaker 3 (26:21):
So let's talk exactly about that, the art of keeping
it real. So one thing that makes you stand out
is your unfiltered, tell it like it is style. I mean,
you're never afraid to speak your mind, and that's rare
in today's world. But let's be real, I mean, cancel
culture like you said earlier, is still very real and
people are quick to take offense. Have you ever felt
a pressure to tone it down or do you believe

(26:42):
authenticity is always just your winning formula?

Speaker 6 (26:44):
Authenticity first, because we have to speak our minds and
be who we are, right and but maybe some of
the I mean, you know, we get a little crash
with the language. We talk to our listeners the way
as if we're talking to them at a bar, no
holds barred, and almost like you.

Speaker 5 (27:03):
Know who we are, You're familiar with our.

Speaker 6 (27:05):
Content, So we don't expect random people to show up
to the party and be like, who are these people?
And I'm offended by them? Because the listeners are all
in on it. They've you know, if you've made it
through the three hundred and twenty seven episodes, you know
the people we are.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Now I want to go one step further. Let's go
from Brooklyn Streets to high Society eats. You're basically you're
basically the human yelp of NYC nightlife. If there's a
new restaurant, a bar, or a hotspot, you've already been
there and reviewed it.

Speaker 4 (27:36):
And right right, well, if.

Speaker 6 (27:39):
I hadn't been there, if I haven't been there, I'm
begging to get in.

Speaker 3 (27:43):
Okay, sous, because that's what you do. So and when
you look at the studies, ninety two percent of people
trust recommendations from influencers, from trusted from trusted radio personalities
more than ads. And you've become like a go to
source for where to eat, drink and vibe. What's your
most unforgettable VIP experience, And what's one NYC spot that's

(28:06):
actually worth the hype?

Speaker 6 (28:07):
The disposable income that I don't that I have from
not raising kids and putting people through college.

Speaker 5 (28:13):
I have four dinners.

Speaker 6 (28:15):
I like, I enjoy a good meal, and so I
follow all the chefs I see what's going on, who's
opening what, and especially a great cocktail bar.

Speaker 5 (28:25):
I want to make sure that I'm.

Speaker 6 (28:26):
Going to places, but I also I want it to
be things that are quality, you know, or what's deemed quality.

Speaker 5 (28:34):
Or what other people have said is awesome.

Speaker 6 (28:37):
I do like what chefs like this guy Andrew Carmelini
does right, and he's got a place called Cafe Carmelini.
He's got a few places under his belt, but anytime
he opens a restaurant, I want to go to that
one right there are you know, I know you could
name all these bougie chefs like a Daniel.

Speaker 5 (28:53):
Blude and the Jean George of the world. Those are nice,
those are a cake.

Speaker 6 (28:58):
Those places are next level expensive, so those are occasional places.
But I like also a good atmosphere, So when great
food is mixed with an awesome build out of a
restaurant with good vibes, like for instance, this restaurant Cocodac
which opened up, which is basically you get a bucket
of KFC chicken on the table, but it's not just

(29:21):
it's not greasy. It's made you know, you turn the
menu over, it's just made with better, better chicken better
you know, no seed oils and things and better ingredients
and and so you are eating like chicken nuggets.

Speaker 5 (29:35):
With caviare on them.

Speaker 6 (29:37):
It presented to you in such a sexy space where
the lighting is perfect. There was a whole documentary on
how they built this place out and and then you know,
google it it's c oqo daq It's Korean barbecue.

Speaker 8 (29:52):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (29:52):
Now, last question, so staying relevant in this ever changing
industry radio, podcasting, social media streaming. I mean, if you're not,
if you're not evolving, you're getting left behind. And you've
mastered the art of staying ahead of the curve. What's
next for you? What advice would you give to the
next generation trying to break into media.

Speaker 5 (30:13):
Well, I would say be multifaceted.

Speaker 6 (30:15):
It's not just about you know, getting into TV or
radio or it's all of it because with iHeart, it's
all things sound right or and video. So now it's
podcasts are not just audio their video. I'm watching I'm
looking at you on a screen. So I would say,
make sure that your skills are up to up to
speed because they're now doing more with less right more

(30:37):
so that means the host, the creator also may have
to be the producer. They have to book their own guests.
You have to have communication skills and networking. You have
to be able to edit right on pro tools or
whatever cap cut. You need to know social media. You
need to know social media best practices. So it's more
you need to It's not just being hey, I want

(30:58):
to be on the radio and I want to be
a DJ, because now those people are all doing multi
you know, multitasking.

Speaker 3 (31:04):
Well, we're officially out of time. This has been an
absolute blast. I mean, your proof that personality, authenticity, and
pure hustle will always win, whether it's on radio stage,
behind a podcast. Mike, you bring something so special, scary,
and I am proud to be your friend.

Welcome back to the seven to ten wor Health feature
of the Week, brought to you by the New Jersey
field House. Did you know that seventy five percent of

(32:28):
our kiddo's under twelve aren't getting enough active free play
and only about half of preschooler's play outside with a
parent at least once a day. Meanwhile, stress and anxiety
rates in both kids and parents are skyrocketing. Here's the
good news. Play is the antidote. Research shows that when
parents and kids engage in shared activities like playing, catch, hiking,

(32:50):
or even learning the latest TikTok dance together, they create
something called social buffering, a powerful stress reduction tool that
helps both of you feel calmer, happier, and more connected.
Think about it. When you play with your child, you're
not just having fun. You're helping their brain, regulating motions,
building their confidence, and protecting them from anxiety and depression.

(33:10):
And guess what it works for you too. Play as
a natural stress reliever that strengthens your bond, boosts your mood,
and reminds you to be present in the moment. So
put the phone down, step away from the to do list,
and give yourself permission to play. Whether your child is five,
fifteen or twenty five, it's never too late to reconnect
because the time you spend playing today is the foundation

(33:32):
for a stronger, healthier relationship tomorrow. This health tip is

I'm your host, Zenzam's up next in the Going Deep segment,

(34:55):
brought to you by Co two Lift. In our Expert
on the Microphone series. Today, we are joined by a
powerhouse panel chatting menopause, a transition that every woman will face,
yet one that remains widely misunderstood and often dismissed. Joining
me today is doctor Daisy Aim, triple Board certified cosmetic surgeon,
OBGYN and founder of the Polished Beauty podcast, a true

(35:17):
advocate for women's health. We also have Lanaker, the visionary
behind Loomis's Skincare, home of Co two Lift, helping women
navigate menopause with confidence and care, and of course, our
headliner guest, Tracy Monique. Tracy is a best selling author,
a podcaster, and an alopecia advocate. Tracy's TikTok video of

(35:39):
her experiencing a hot flash in the middle of a
sports game where steam was literally rising from her scalp,
went viral, sparking a much needed global conversation on menopause.
Tracy uses her platform to shed light on topics often
left out in the shadows joining me now is the
incredible Powerhouse panel. Welcome to the show, Superstar. There's everyone, everyone, Tracy.

(36:02):
Let's start with that viral moment, your TikTok video where
we see steam visibly rising from your head, resonating with millions.
In fact, pot flashes are one of the most common
symptoms of menopause, affecting up to eighty percent of women,
yet they remain widely misunderstood. What was going through your
mind when you saw just how many women related to

(36:22):
your experience, I was just at all.

Speaker 8 (36:26):
First of all, I didn't think the video was going
to go viral for one. For two when people started,
you know, commenting about how they experienced that, but it
wasn't a visual, But I was used for people to
see that it's actually something that we go through. You
get hot on the inside and sometimes you're just so

(36:47):
hot you don't even know how to control the heat.
It is just you're sweating, you're hot, you just want
to rip your clothes, you know.

Speaker 9 (36:55):
But I'm just grateful that.

Speaker 8 (36:58):
I was used to show people that this is a
real thing and it is something that we really need
to discuss.

Speaker 3 (37:05):
Yes, without a doubt. Of course, after that visual went viral.
You definitely want to talk about addressing just that the
steam coming off your head. Doctor Daisy, Let's break this
down scientifically. Okay, a hot flash is just a fleeting
moment of heat. It's a biological response caused by hormonal fluctuations.

Speaker 9 (37:22):
You of course know this.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
You. Studies show that as estrogen declines, the hypothotamist, the
body's internal thermist that becomes hypersensitive, mistakenly thinking the body
is overheating. Can you explain what's happening in the body
during a hot flash and why some women experience them
more severely than others.

Speaker 10 (37:40):
Your brain normally estrogen works on this stumbath enter to
balance our body temperature. So the decline of estrogen causes
our brain to kind of misfires, and when this occurs,
you have this acute vase of dilation, which basically means
your blood vessels are dilaated, usually underneath your skin surface era.
So this causes this internal heat and flushing feeling where

(38:02):
you're just feeling very They stay warmth, but I say
hot because if you experience this, it feels like you're
burning inside and then your body is reacting to it,
so by it trying to cool down the overwhelming heat
you have, you sort of have like sweating, and then
once the sweating dissipates, then you start having kind of
like these chills and coldness that you have afterwards. So physiologically,

(38:25):
your body is just trying to understand what is going on.
And Traceys video just basically capture that moment so beautifully.
And there are different reasons why women will have more
than others. So number one reason is genetics, right, so
women are just predisposed to have more severe symptoms based
on genes. The second thing is metabolism and body composition.

(38:47):
The more fat distribution you have, the more intense your
experience what hot flashes is. The other thing IS's lifestyle factors.
Those lifestyle factors could be smoking, alcohol, spicy foods, those
could be triggers for you to have this hot flashes moment.
Another thing is just medical conditions. If you have a

(39:07):
thyroid disorder, this can be a trigger for you to
have excessive hot flashes moment as well. And lastly is
an ethnicity, which basically means you know, black Latino women's
that tend to have more intense and longer episodes.

Speaker 9 (39:21):
So hot flashes.

Speaker 10 (39:22):
Compared to the Asian and white counterpart.

Speaker 3 (39:24):
Wow, being a woman is so much fun. So, Lana,
menopause is more than just these hot flashes. We've been
saying this for the last six months, especially in all
our expert segments. It impacts everything from skin elasticity, to
hydration levels and even how we heal. Your work with
CO two lift, especially CO two Lift vaginal rejuvenation treatment
has focused on restoring skin and vaginal health to areas

(39:48):
that are dramatically affected by menopause. What role do regenitive
treatments like SOO to Lift and COO Too Lift V
play in helping women feel more comfortable and confident during
this transition.

Speaker 9 (39:59):
Like to use the analogy of a grape and a raisin,
we start off this beautiful grape, full of water, bouncy,
and we're not only talking about the skin on our face,
we're talking about our vulva, skin, our vaginal tissue. And
then we turn into this raisin, this dried up structure.
We fortunately have the technology that flows that process done.
So let's just talk about down there. One of the

(40:22):
couple things that happen. It's we're talking about our blood flow,
our blood supply, slows done, which affects the ability of
our clitteros to function optimally. Our tissue in our vaginal
tissue gets thinner and dryer, just like the skin under
our eyes, and so that's going to lead to more
painful sex, less pleasure in sex, and then also painful sex.

(40:46):
And also too we can experience them where you cough
and you sneeze and then you'll pee and then our
pH goes off, so we'll find we're more susceptible to infections.
The CO two lift is very, very good at combating
all those different symptoms. Because we're talking about hydration, you're
going to see it immediately on the skin even down there,

(41:08):
that tissue is going to plump off, as well as
the fact that we're going to experience better orgasms because
we're increasing blood supply very quickly, then our tissue is
going to get thick, so it feels more like a
pillow for our partner or whatever we're putting inside, you know,
like this cushion, and then of course are we're getting
less infection. So it's something that I like it as

(41:31):
a great tool for once we do the series, to
bring that back up and that we just maintain it monthly.
We're not talking against ludes loops or something that women
use and are can be necessary for many women, and
sometimes the more loube you use the better, but it
still is not that is not changing the quality of
our tissue. Stew two left is changing the quality of

(41:54):
our tissue. It's something that actually reconditions the bulb of
vaginal skin as well as the skin in our face.

Speaker 3 (42:00):
And now, Tracy, back to you. Beyond the humor in
your video, there's a deeper conversation happening, and many women
commented that they now understand what their mothers went through,
while others shared their own struggles. Your video became more
than just a viral moment.

Speaker 9 (42:14):
It became an awareness campaign.

Speaker 3 (42:16):
If you ask me, how has this experience shaped your
perspective on menopause's advocacy and what conversations has it sparked
for you personally.

Speaker 8 (42:25):
It's just sparked a lot of conversation about what do
you do to control how you feel?

Speaker 9 (42:35):
What emotions do you have, what does it feel like?

Speaker 8 (42:38):
Because I have a daughter, she's twenty five years old,
so she's gonna possibly experience the same thing as I
have experiencing now, so it's bringing a lot of awareness
to a lot of my peers and my friends, and
we kind of discuss options and what kind of options

(42:59):
are out there to use to control menopause.

Speaker 3 (43:04):
Yeah, it's definitely, without a doubt, I'm sure brought a
whirldwind of information and advocacy your way and educated you
in ways about yourself that you didn't even know existed, right,
just by sharing your story and having others come into
your ecosystem. Now, Doctor Daisy, hot flashes are just one
piece of the menopause puzzle. Women also report increased anxiety,

(43:25):
brain fog, and even heart palpitations. Research from the Endocrine
Society shows that during a hot flash, a woman's heart
rate can increase by as much as sixteen beats per minute.
What are some of the lesser known symptoms of menopause
and what should women be paying attention to.

Speaker 9 (43:41):
Number one, burning mouth syndrome.

Speaker 10 (43:43):
This is a tingling, burning, metallic taste that you may experience,
and again, this is due to homono shifts and your
taste but changes during menopause perimenopause years. Number two, I
call it echo crawly tingling skin formuication that happens because
of the collagen production that's affected and skin hydration, so
that's something that you're going to experience. Number three electric

(44:04):
shock sensation. This is basically having this zap or jilty
feelings that you may get and essentially it's due to
nerve firing. So that's something that can occur in menopause.
Number four, you have your joint and pain stiffness. We've
kind of talked about this before frozen shoulder syndrome, but
it's also menopausal arthritis. This is real and it's something
that can happen. Number five, you have digestive changes and bloating.

(44:27):
We all know that god health is the essentral part
of our being and the lack of estrogen.

Speaker 3 (44:32):
Can definitely affect that as well.

Speaker 10 (44:34):
So you get like these IBS like symptoms, although it's
not a typical IBS.

Speaker 9 (44:39):
Then you have changes in body odor.

Speaker 3 (44:41):
That's something that can happen.

Speaker 10 (44:43):
You can find yourself smelling different, or your prokium doesn't
give you the same effect as you used to it.

Speaker 9 (44:48):
That can happen.

Speaker 10 (44:49):
Increase anxiety and panic attacks, as you mentioned, that's something
that's common. Don't food changes or cravings or aversions what
you used to love you don't like anymore, and things
you didn't like love that happens. Your but tastes but changes,
and then you have just ringing ear. This can happen
during menopause. All of a sudden you feel like your
hearing is changing. And lastly, gum and dental disease. So

(45:13):
sing your densis is very important because around this time,
decline and estrogen can cause changes in your dental health
as well. So those ten common symptoms and things that
we don't talk about. I know, the vaginal symptoms is common,
how flashes is common, the heart is common. But every
organ is affected during this time.

Speaker 3 (45:31):
So a Latin menopause can be a clear blow to
self esteem. Thanks for that, doctor, Daisy.

Speaker 10 (45:37):
Weight distribution changes, hair thins, skin losses, it's you know,
all kinds of stuff.

Speaker 3 (45:43):
The skin is losing its firmness. But a study from
the American Menopause Society found that over sixty percent of
women report a decrease in self confidence during menopause. What
advice do you have for women struggling to feel like
themselves again and how can they regain a sense of
control over their bodies.

Speaker 9 (45:59):
One of the things is information our mothers educated us
on puberty, like we were able to understand what is
happening to us, So that helped us to adjust our
mindset so once we pass it where we could have
our confidence. I think it's the same thing with this
part of our lives. To me, menopause is can be
and for me personally, I feel very confident in it.

(46:22):
Why because I understand, first of all, this part of
my life is where I feel most. I have most information,
I have life experience. I feel like I have no job,
I don't have to give explanations to people. But it's
because I have the information. Then I'm doing the things
that are necessary to combat some of those symptoms. So

(46:43):
I feel like this for women is a part of
life that we want to be at. Yes, we're getting
those things, but they will pass. We'll get you know,
some of those symptoms will pass, and then we have
the technology that can help us. So definitely it's a
mindset shift that we need to all as women feel.
I don't even feel it's changing the word. I've heard
some people who are big menopause advocacy. Oh, they don't

(47:04):
like the word. I love the word. It's not about
the word, it's what the meaning that we put behind.

Speaker 3 (47:09):
The word Amen. Yeah you said it. No, it's truly
it's our time, Tracy. I'm going to pivot to you
because this is the perfect time. She's talking about confidence.
I want to talk about emotional Menopause isn't just physical, right,
we know, it's emotional and mood swings and irritability and
even depression are more common. Male clinic study found that
women going through menopause are at significantly higher risk for

(47:31):
anxiety and depression. Now, what has your emotional journey been
like and what advice do you have for women who
may be feeling overwhelmed.

Speaker 8 (47:38):
Well, my emotional journey, I cry, I can. I honestly
can say I do cry a lot. And that is
because everything that I love have been kind of stripped away,
you know what I mean, things that I was holding
on to thinking it was going to make my life better.

(48:00):
I'm just right now.

Speaker 9 (48:02):
I'm at peace though, but I have lots of peace
and joy.

Speaker 8 (48:05):
But as far as emotional, I cry a lot because
I'm really getting to understand who I am as a person,
and I'm understanding that the people that I poured into
and that they couldn't pour back into me I had
to let them go. Do you stop trying to worry

(48:25):
about what other people think about you, Stop trying to
fix everybody, stop trying to be the do girl, just
enjoy yourself and take care of yourself and get to know.

Speaker 5 (48:39):
Who you are.

Speaker 3 (48:40):
This is such a beautiful time if you think of it.
It's time to reflect and time to really road map
your next chapter. And sometimes that does involve releasing the
old and you know, coming in within you. And when
one door closes, another one opens, and so that's a
great moment to be in because you're full of self awareeness.

(49:00):
Doctor Daisy, One of the biggest health concerns post menopause
is osteoporosis. As estrogen declines, women can lose up to
twenty percent of their bone density in the first five
to seven years after menopause. What preventative steps should women
take to protect their bone health and how early should
they start thinking about this.

Speaker 10 (49:19):
I think women should start thinking about their bone health
the minute they get into a dolls in years. You know,
start eating nutrition, making sure you're eating high costume meal,
You're exercising, exercising, doing weightlifting, weight barren exercise. When you're
in your menopause years. You know, gain on HRT is
always an option. Supplements is something that I am not

(49:41):
a big supplement, but there are a few that I
would say I do recommend I think is good. A
daily multi vitamin is essential, something that you can add
to your nutrition if you're nutrient deficient. Of focusing on calcium,
you can even consider creating, which is good in loss
of building. So taking those steps in your twenties and
even a consistent life is what is important. Yeah, it's

(50:03):
important to be proactive, get ahead of the curve. I
always say, now, Alanna, we've come a long way, but
menopause is still a topic that's shrouded in stigma. We've
been talking about demystifying those stigmas for quite some time
on our series. For Generations, women have been conditioned to
suffer in silence, but we know that knowledge is power.
How important is it to normalize conversations around menopause and

(50:26):
what can be done to shift the cultural narrative around
this life stage saying the.

Speaker 9 (50:31):
Word menopause, making people understand that this is it's not
a bad part of our life. It's not like we're
put out to pasture. Definitely, you know, talking beyond the
period conversation. You know, we need to talk to our
young our dultas, our nieces, our young women, beyond the period,
you know, talk about what happens next, what you know,

(50:54):
what are you going to experience, and how you can
prevent experiencing a lot of the symptoms because you can
actually prevent it. And doctor Daisy said, if you didn't start,
you can always start now, but it is if you
can start doing things before you're experiencing these symptoms, you
