What inspired Arthur Lee protecting his daughter and then the
world's success. Leaves Clues will explore each chapter of author's book,
Sorry Can't just lie and hear from other men and
women in their arenas. Get ready to be inspired. Welcome
to the Man in the Arena. I'm Rick Thatcher along
with Arthur Lee joined by Danielle the nursing Home Warrior.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
She is a warrior, but you got outside too. And
that title is almost a little like you know, setting
up shopping for old people isn't really warrior material, but
you are a warrior.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
That's because you haven't seen me fight.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
No, I've seen, trust me. I know what a warrior side.
I've seen it. It's the nice shopping side.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Yeah, but you've been with us before.

Speaker 5 (01:35):
She could be slightly miflated and.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
She could be there in lies of the warrior, but
I don't know that if you've joined us. When the
Man in the Arena was not in San Diego, Los Angeles, Houston, Orlando, Dallas,
and New York, I don't think it was nationwide and
the fastest going podcast.

Speaker 3 (01:51):
That's what makes us the fastest growing podcast. And that's
what separates us from you know, the normal podcast.

Speaker 5 (01:57):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
Not only do we do and it goes out, we're
more in the Abbey normal category. It gets the message out,
you know, for an hour of radio all over the country.
So definitely is why we are the fastest growing. It's
a cool practice and I think we will continue to
expand into other markets, so you know you can hear
us on the radio, just in your shop or whatever.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
Would you say the country needs this type of programming.

Speaker 5 (02:21):
Yeah, no doubt.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
And you'll see as we go through this one, because
it's can take me a little bit to set it up,
but as always, it's kind of a spring on you.
So we'll get like we did the prayer discussion. It'll
be a little bit like that, and we'll see out there,
you know, handles the throwing us throwing the rock.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yes. And now, so what author alludes to again, Arthur
lee ceo inventor of Life Act, is a chapter from
the book Sorry Can't is a Lie, which you can
get and I should mention the website for goodness sakes,
www dot Lifeact dot net. Get the original Life Fact,

Sorry Can't Just Lie? And the chapter we talk about tonight. Yeah,
you should throw a rock. You should throw a rock.

Speaker 5 (03:16):
You should throw the rock.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
And I was kind of searching and there'll be a
transition from it. But what hit me is these stories
are kind of my life fables. Remember fables don't fly,
you know, a close to some ASoP Chicken, Little cried Wolf,
the p and but think about what is the boy
cried wolf?

Speaker 5 (03:36):
Right?

Speaker 3 (03:36):
Basically, it's a lesson that if you lie, someone may
not believe you when tell the truth, don't lie, don't
fly too close to the sun. You know Icarus's feathers melt. Well,
that's saying be humble, right, Think about these stories have
lasted hundreds, maybe thousands of years and we are sitting
there right, So what.

Speaker 5 (03:54):
Does that mean.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
It means that we we need foundational thoughts, We need
found things, not all the accessorial noise we get nowadays. Right,
And in the book is my kind of ASoP fables
that I learned growing up. And I think we more
than ever we have to. It'll allude and we'll go
into it rely on them. So the story you should

(04:19):
throw the.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
Rock remind me a little Huck Finn.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
Well, a lot of it's like that well, think about it.
We used to watch David glat the Brady Bunch. They
all had a lesson, you know, and that was good
that that helped us as children, kind of getting outside
influence of positivity or foundation.

Speaker 5 (04:37):
Right. Okay, So I'm sitting in the n backyard. Now.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
This is the time I often mention it where you know,
when you had nothing to do, you literally had nothing
to do, You couldn't put go on your phone. You
sat there and looked at each other, said what do
you want to do? You know, so odd things would
come in. We could have rock fights or you know,
start a fire or build a bomb. So we me
and my butter are in the foxhole and he's he

(05:00):
was a rambunctious kid. And I look him back and
he wasn't, you know, overly bright, and in this sad
way of saying, neither was I.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
But if anything is when I read it, I knew
you use the first name names, you know, kept the
same to protect the innocent. But I knew exactly who
you were talking about. But the first time I read
the book, and now I even know, and I picture
him now as a grown man, back when he was
a kid.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
So you know, we're goofed off and we're in my
fox tole playing and uh, there's a party across the canal.
And I say, you know I can't throw rock over there.
Yeah I can. I could throw rock a long way.
I don't think he could throw rock that far. No,
I really can't. Well I don't believe it. So he
throws the rock, hits a guy right in there. Damn
boom in that magical.

Speaker 5 (05:45):
Just throw it.

Speaker 3 (05:46):
Never good A million years moment like the marshmallow another chapter,
and you know, we freaked out the same chapter, different
little exactly. So we bolt and I go onto my bed.
We're all gonna die. My father is gonna kill me.
And as I'm hiding under my bed, I'm saying I
didn't do anything wrong. You know, I'm a good kid.
He threw the rock, Dad, I didn't do it, And

(06:09):
you know, the old school guy comes over says, your
kids are idiots.

Speaker 5 (06:13):
My father says, I agree, thanks for telling me.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
And you know, he comes in and I explained how
great a kid I am, and he says, well not really.
He actually comes Yeah, the David and Goliath moment. You
actually really did two bad things. One you manipulated your friend.
You took advantage of the fact that you know, you
kind of suckered him into it. You know that's not
something you do. And he also said, you know, if

(06:38):
someone's about to do something wrong, you're supposed to stop them,
not encourage them.

Speaker 5 (06:43):
Right.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
So this melows into where our discussion today is going.
Because I saw a Golden Retriever dive off a diving board,
do three flips and land in the water, and you know,
we have a new world of not being able to
believe things right. So I said to myself, I said,
you know, we need more asops feebles, right, and I

(07:07):
think our first talk should be kind of whether we've
got manipulated or we caught ourselves manipulating someone.

Speaker 5 (07:13):
So we need just like choking, you.

Speaker 3 (07:15):
Need to be aware, you need to be prepared, and
you need to do something right. So when I was
a college, they took sociology, mostly because, as Lenny knows,
it was very conducive to drinking beer, chasing girls, and
playing sports. So I initially said, this is right up
my alley, but there was a class that stuck with
me called the Unanticipated Consequences of Technology, right.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
So deep actually.

Speaker 5 (07:40):
Yeah, deep yeah, And it was. I loved it. It was
my favorite class.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
And basically it said, you know, we get technology saying wow,
is this great, but we don't realize the impact that
it may have.

Speaker 5 (07:52):
Right.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
And the example was about the Long Island Expressway to
alleviate traffic. Well, then people move further away and we
had more or traffic. So the foundation of that class
was to go into a company and research and look
at whatever they were doing to see if they were
unanticipated consequences. So putting that all together, and I thought, geez,

(08:14):
we are coming into an era of complete disbelief, right,
so what is the deeper problem?

Speaker 5 (08:20):
Right?

Speaker 3 (08:21):
So now we're already a very untrusting society, right, we've
gotten that way the.

Speaker 5 (08:26):
Media has made as leep to.

Speaker 3 (08:28):
Look in life fact or you could use this, Oh
I have to let the kid die. Oh my god,
there's not.

Speaker 5 (08:33):
In the c D D D.

Speaker 3 (08:35):
Okay, Well you're supposed to save a life, idiot. So
we're back to basics, right, and well we've already become
very fearful. And now with this, how does it affect relationships?
Your programmed that if you see something you used to
be able to see it and believe it, Right, you
saw it.

Speaker 5 (08:53):
You saw it with your own two eyes.

Speaker 3 (08:56):
And historically, you know, we could listen to Walter Cronkin
and you know, comfortable believing them.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
There was trust.

Speaker 5 (09:02):
Yeah, and then you know it crept right.

Speaker 3 (09:05):
Then we had texting and all these things where you
could kind of pretend look at the people you know
on Facebook you know, I'm surveying. Meanwhile, you know you're
in India in the basement. So now we're starting to
get this. Now we have the last stage. You know,
they right now could come out orson wells were the
world's Martians here. Trump could come on TV and say

(09:25):
Martians landed. They could show video of the Martians in
the field coming out with guns.

Speaker 5 (09:31):
Everyone freak out.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
So we have to be that way, right, we have
to be questioning now everything we see, everything we he
but what is the depth? So the first one I'd
like to kind of shoot from is my feeling bad
and learning not to manipulate someone. They just said, you go,
you know, I think women have a lot of input
on this because you know, men may try and manipulate them.

Speaker 6 (09:56):
Well, I think you I shared a story with you
very recently about somebody manipulating me. Yeah, it was a
tug of war. Actually it was back and forth. It
wasn't It wasn't very clear cut, right, right. It was
somebody pretending to be a nice, kind human being and
turning out to be not so nice. But the interesting part, though,

(10:17):
is that nobody else knows that I was being manipulated.
So everybody else who is surrounded by this human being
thinks that this person is a fantastic, wonderful, giving, loving
kind soul.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
Sounds like a narciss system, right, So it's become a
very popular term.

Speaker 5 (10:35):
Right, Yes, that didn't exist back in the way.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
It does very well. He does very well with people's.

Speaker 6 (10:42):
So even when I can find it confide it in somebody,
they said to me that that's exactly what they said,
and I was like, no, really, and they they ended
up believing me. But it was like, how could this nice, amazing, generous,
kind person also be the person you're describing. So then
I got into this really weird, bad, bad space where

(11:02):
I was saying, maybe maybe it's me, maybe I did something,
maybe it's my problem. And that's when I was sharing
with you that I was in such a bad, horrible place.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
I was like, how could this be?

Speaker 6 (11:14):
How could everyone else think this person's fantastic, and I
think that this person's a piece of garbage.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
When you're questioning your own sanity, I think that is
a form of guest life.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
Yeah, but we get these turned narcissis guessing no one
knows what they mean. That's why we need aesop. Fables
don't throw a rock? Right question for you, which I'm
curious about in your life when you've become aware of it, like,
do you do you see any signs where you're kind
of like, wait a second, you know this person's.

Speaker 5 (11:42):
Kind of leading me down a path? Well, I think
in this particular, well, it's kind of obvious pretty soon, this.

Speaker 6 (11:49):
One's pretty obvious, correct. But I think that I can't
speak for anybody else. I can only speak for myself,
and I can tell you that my relationship with my
father was never good, and I feel like I was
always questioning how people treated me because of that relationship.
So it was stems from something of me being a
little girl.

Speaker 5 (12:08):
You know.

Speaker 3 (12:08):
But do you think that helped you fend off manipulation sooner?
Or were you more apt to kind of drift into
it because you questioned yourself.

Speaker 6 (12:15):
I think I would defend myself to a point where
I would almost blow it up.

Speaker 5 (12:21):
Yeah, I believe I could see that, right.

Speaker 6 (12:22):
I mean, you know me well enough to know that
I need to blow it up and know that it's
done and gone. So I I would based and I
would sing a song of love in my heart as
I did it, because I needed to be blown up.
So if I feel like you're starting to hurt me
in any sort of way, I won't retreat. I I'll
think about it, and then I'll plan your demise.

Speaker 5 (12:44):
What have you ever erd and done that to someone
who wasn't really?

Speaker 4 (12:48):
Never, My thought has never been wrong.

Speaker 5 (12:52):
But that's that's a lesson.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
Young women need to know that if you're feeling it,
believe in yourself and stop it. Look at some of
the you know, the relationships that go on for years
with abuse, or you know, the getting someone to kill someone, right,
and now we're gonna add AI, here's him beating my child,
go kill him, right, there's the videocam of him. Now

(13:16):
that happens now I watch a lot of Dayline. Sorry,
but my point is that we now have another tool
to manipulate people, but we also need to try to
be aware, not to do that. That's what I learned
from that right that I felt horrible And if I
ever felt I was trying to manipulate someone, I said, no,

(13:36):
it's wrong, don't do that. So it's a combination of
educating people not to do it and then being aware
of it standing up prior to you know, a ten
year manager, we get beat every night.

Speaker 5 (13:49):
You know, it's horrible situation.

Speaker 4 (13:51):
It's really about who you surround yourself with. Ye like
your friends.

Speaker 6 (13:54):
You have to have friends who are going to say stop,
this isn't right, as opposed to somebody who says no,
throw the rock.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
Well throw the rock, you know, Danielle, that's a great point,
a great time for a break. We'll be right back
with more of the man in the arena after this message.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
Now on iHeartRadio, more of the Man in the Arena
the Life Back Radio Show. Here again are Arthur Lee
and Rick Thatcher along with.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
Danielle the Nursing Home Warrior lead line. And there have
been signed our conversation. No, it's because what happens is
this is what happens in the fastest growing podcast.

Speaker 4 (16:25):
Because I want to get on board with that and
make my podcast.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
We should mention tell us about your blab about ourselves.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
We're right deep in this conversation. Yes, we will mention
nurse before the president. Amazing thing and she is a
woman in the arena. Yes, but I want to stay
on track because I want your opinion now whether you
did and regret it, have been or have an opinion
of thought on the new world that we're facing with

(16:54):
this deep seated mistrust. If you ever been manipulated where
you woke up and said, only crap.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
Am I doing absolutely on all counts? I think, you know,
back in childhood, I remember certainly being involved with things
where you're encouraging someone else to do something that's mischievous and.

Speaker 5 (17:11):
That's why trouble at that time.

Speaker 2 (17:14):
I remember blowing pepper, you know, myself doing it, blowing
pepper because it was cool, aren't our friend Rob Watson?

Speaker 5 (17:20):
Right?

Speaker 2 (17:21):
Yes, it didn't go well.

Speaker 5 (17:23):
He's in the book too for almost get my head
beat in? Yes, yeah, did you feel bad?

Speaker 2 (17:29):
Of course, of course. And a lot of it was
from you know, the Davy and Goliath, or my you
know mother pointing it out, or just I guess my
uncle was around, you know, to a large degree too,
with pointing out that's not you. Like I remember protecting
a younger child. I was one of the youngest in
the neighborhood and there was a lot of rough kids
and I remember looking out for Andy and my uncle

(17:51):
pointed out, reinforced it and said, you know that's who
you want to be.

Speaker 3 (17:55):
Yeah, man, that was the Rob Watson story. I wanted
them to get beat up, but then everyone's going to
beat them up. That's not fair, but that's cool, and
that's cool. Listen, did you ever catch it like where
someone was trying to manipulate you? Few money has something
to do with this too, because it's a preventive moment
when you say enough, you know, I don't care, and

(18:16):
you brought the light by saying you know, you catch
it and you address it, which I think is tough.

Speaker 5 (18:21):
Like you mentioned in this situation where said, no one
believes you.

Speaker 6 (18:24):
It's not that they didn't believe me, but they couldn't
believe that the person that was doing it to me
would ever be anything amazing.

Speaker 3 (18:32):
Why, it's sometimes difficult when you're being manipulated to believe
in yourself.

Speaker 5 (18:37):
You call it a word. I don't know what gas lining.

Speaker 2 (18:39):
Gaslighting means. It's someone that's having you question your own Saturday,
like by you know, turning the It's from a movie
where the character was constantly looking and the gas light
was lit and they started thinking did I do that myself?

Speaker 5 (18:55):
And it was.

Speaker 2 (18:57):
And it's become very popular with the politics, It's become
very popular.

Speaker 5 (19:01):
The problem with well, the stupid guys that say, Bill,
what do you think today?

Speaker 3 (19:06):
And they're not in the arena, Well, watch gas lighting
Phil and he doesn't know what the hell was talking about, right,
and he's an idiot, and the only guy's an idiot.
And they're not saying when I was a kid, I
know what it was because it felt that way. And
if you did ask them, they probably go, I don't know.
I just talk about stuff.

Speaker 5 (19:23):
You get paid. So in your own.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
Experience, remember, how the heck do I know? Connie?

Speaker 5 (19:29):
What am I doing here?

Speaker 3 (19:30):
But I guess what I was curious was have you
ever gone down the Danielle path and caught it and said,
whoa wait a second, I'm being manipulated?

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Sure, And it's at that point where you ask yourself,
is it me?

Speaker 5 (19:43):
You know?

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Am I craizy? And you bounced it all that.

Speaker 6 (19:46):
I get it for like a half a second, and
then I'll reach out to somebody I trust and I'll
tell I'll ask them and I'll say help me here,
and then they usually set me straight.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
Yeah, it starts with it, am I Craisy?

Speaker 4 (19:56):
And then I planned their demise.

Speaker 5 (19:59):
Let's it's don't necessary plan the divine part.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
The sinister side of the nursing home warrior is on
full display. Here.

Speaker 4 (20:09):
You're gonna hurt me. I might come after you, well
you know what.

Speaker 5 (20:12):
Else.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
One what I was curious about was particularly in line
with new AI and we can't trust anything. Was regaining
some maybe some foundational moments of breaking right. Like for me,
manners is huge. Like if you're someone and you know
you're rude to the bus boy or just you know,
you say things by you know you automatically go okay,

(20:34):
I'm not going to crucify you over. But that's not
I'm not moving down a direction of having you in
my life. You don't let everyone at life act a
good person and their their kind and their great manners.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
Very few hr incidents, very few people.

Speaker 5 (20:51):
We would have hundreds of them.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
But we have ind world.

Speaker 3 (20:55):
We have the real world where we're not there to
say you know, well you We say everything to each other,
but it's because of mutual respect and fun. You're a
guy and your buddy didn't pick on you. He probably
doesn't like it, you know, he doesn't goof on you
and say you and Jackie ride in the car. I
can't wait to hear that. We'll talk a little bit about.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
The trip Jackie leave the inspiration for the life back
back when she was seven years old, and now she's
no longer seven, but eighteen nineteen.

Speaker 3 (21:22):
She's gonna be twenty twenty one. Oha, man, my brain
is broken. So here's the thing though, YEA, with that
in line, that we all have these moments of saying, okay,
you know you her or you lie. It was a
little one, but you start, you say okay, you know,
you're able to quickly kind of categorize that person, whether
they're going to be in your life that you call
when you're in that moment.

Speaker 5 (21:43):
Or they're not.

Speaker 3 (21:44):
How do we develop those with this new world so
we can maintain trusting each other and loving each other,
falling in love and not pitching picking up pitch, I
gus because that gets a little funny, that's boy. But
you know, we can maintain our humanity of trust and joy.
So how do we interpret AI with a flag that

(22:08):
helps us? Obviously a dog doing somersaults off the diving.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
I've seen sharks eating entire boats recently. I think that
the cats out of the bag is that the correct terminology.
The horse out of the barn with the expectation that
people see things and automatically they think, oh that you know,
you go to the comments section, you see AI's getting
rid right good.

Speaker 3 (22:29):
But that's because my opinion, the evilness has not started.
Someone said to me, I don't know, I think I
think it's it's definitely started. But my dad got scammed
once by you know these calling dudes, right, They called
him up and they said, you know, mister Lee, this
is an attorney Phil Johnson. Last night, your son of
your nephew, I mean, your grandson was mom linst and

(22:51):
he's fine. He's in jail, but I can bail him out.
I know he works for the government and we don't
want a big scandal. He was down to Florida. He
was at a bachelor party and I was in the
wrong car at the wrong time Insterly. I'd be I'm
defending some of his the other people in the car,
and I would be happy to throw him in balls.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
Like what.

Speaker 5 (23:14):
He says, hang on, let me put your nephew, you know,
your grandson on the phone.

Speaker 4 (23:18):
Gri gri let mean and it's his voice.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
Yeah, And he felt for it, and I was like,
oh my god, so I go, I said, Dad, don't
do anything, get over there, and you know, he was
starting to lose it and it was so real and
I said, you sure you spoke to Eddie right, because
my nephew was in Florida.

Speaker 5 (23:38):
He is an idiot and and uh I couldn't get him. Wow.

Speaker 3 (23:43):
And then I couldn't get my sister. And this guy's like,
he's you know, he's going to get charged if we don't.
You know, it's like pressure on us.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
Now.

Speaker 3 (23:50):
I was fortunate I have a friend to go down
to my sisters and they were all sleep and I said,
you know, what a piece of junk. But imagine getting
FaceTime from your Oh yeah, yep, you know, it's just
in whatever, you know.

Speaker 5 (24:04):
So, how do we red.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
Flag where we trust enough the love but we aren't
conscious enough that there's no manners to see it any thoughts?

Speaker 5 (24:15):
Right, Well, thanks for listening, and we solve that.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
No, that's it's a great question, and it's really deep
because the whole time I'm thinking about the manipulation of
the media on the viewers, and you're talking more on
a personal level, or the scamming that's we're subject to,
and that's going to continue to go on. It went
on before there was this technology, and they would just manipulate,

(24:39):
playing on people's pretty year and wanting to protect their family.
So hey, Grandma, I'm in trouble with.

Speaker 5 (24:45):
The deeper part right because we get the government to
step in.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Well, they probably one is going to use it the
most and certify and regulate and pull that doesn't work.
And like I said, they're the ones that will probably
use it the most. We need to educate on both front.
I think right we need Davy and Glad to say
you could still love, but be careful of this stuff.

Speaker 5 (25:04):
You look ready, you got it. What I know.

Speaker 6 (25:07):
I think you have to know your people. I think
that you know you have to have a safe place
to go and know your people. And I think the
world is scary.

Speaker 4 (25:14):
And I but it's not, but it is.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
It's not all depends on your We're.

Speaker 6 (25:19):
In different we're totally in different places in our lives
right now. Right well, I understand what I mean is
that you're married, you have a beautiful daughter, you have
a home, you're stable. I think it does because I
am out in the world trying to meet nursing home warrior.
I'm trying to develop something I really am in the
world alone. I don't go home to anybody.

Speaker 3 (25:40):
You know your point, I say, there's so many good
people that come out and want to help and want
to do things with you. You're looking for it, right,
and I'm going to get overly skeptical of people.

Speaker 4 (25:51):
And I feel like, I'm like, you really want to
help me? Like you sure? Like what what what you're
looking at? Why do you want to help me? That's
what do you want for me? I have nothing to
give you.

Speaker 7 (26:01):
What do you want?

Speaker 3 (26:01):
The beginning of what I'm saying is the continuation of
the problem where we watch dogs diving, so I say,
you must be bad.

Speaker 5 (26:09):
I can't trust you. I don't even want to talk
to you.

Speaker 3 (26:12):
And then now we get that we're locking on cars,
we're hiding in our houses, we're dodging people, and I'm
all over the country, all over the world, and there's
a lot of good people, and there are places that
I think crime is down less people, But boy, we
could make it look worse.

Speaker 5 (26:27):
In two seconds.

Speaker 6 (26:28):
I agree, But I feel like my position, which is
definitely different than yours, is that I have to be
more careful because people can hurt me a lot easier,
and they can hurt you.

Speaker 5 (26:38):
I don't understand who's out to hurt you, Bob.

Speaker 4 (26:43):
About something that literally happened.

Speaker 3 (26:45):
Okay, okay, you're right, I'll give you that. But it
wasn't necessarily hurt you, but it was it was uncovered,
all right, I get your point.

Speaker 4 (26:56):
That was definitely what happened was not okay, No, it
was not okay. But that's and he was trying to
manipulate me.

Speaker 3 (27:02):
But that stuff happens, and we need to be educated prepared.
But the statement of the mistrust of everyone, because you
can't blanket that may continue worse.

Speaker 5 (27:17):
We're all in our basements on our phone.

Speaker 4 (27:19):
You want me to agree with him, No, because I
never happened.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
If you don't think you should, I never happen. If
you do think you should.

Speaker 6 (27:27):
For me in my life, it's easier for me to
ask a lot of questions, why do you want to
help me because you could?

Speaker 4 (27:32):
Because someone could hurt me a lot easier than help me.

Speaker 3 (27:36):
Well, I think we have to be skeptical, But my
concern is over skeptical, I might stop being nice because
we've conditioned ourselves to question everything, and it.

Speaker 6 (27:47):
Makes me more cautious. About who I talk to and
who I share my ideas.

Speaker 4 (27:53):
I do, but I have to be them.

Speaker 3 (27:55):
That could be a spiral there, meaning we much sooner
judge someone's about what much sooner raise our defensive flags
because we know that it might be a fake gold
and achiever diving in the pool, particularly for the young people.
Then didn't throw a rock. I don't know if kids
even throw rocks throw on their phones, but they are
growing up in this environment of this is their thing,

(28:17):
you know, and the world when when they first started
and they watched the guy throw the ping pong ball,
hit the pot, hit the roof, and go in the cup,
that was pretty cool because he did four hundred and
eighty seven times. How the heck they have time or
care enough to do it, God bless them, but it
was real. Right now, they're gonna be able to make
the ping pong goal, you know, through Trump's years out

(28:39):
the other side, bounce off Biden's head and wind up
in a hold of one.

Speaker 5 (28:43):
At the masters. Right. So they've grown up with this thing.
They've grown up kind of believe in it.

Speaker 4 (28:50):
Do you think they believe it? Because I feel like they.

Speaker 5 (28:53):
I believe that guy, like.

Speaker 4 (28:57):
Definitely much.

Speaker 10 (28:58):
We're going to bring on Jackie, perfect time, victory on
the peanut. Take a break and grab her. We'll be
back with more of the man in the arena. And
this in this case is going to be the Jackie
and the.

Speaker 5 (29:10):
Cage match.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
We'll be right back.

Speaker 5 (29:12):
She started to choke on a piece of candy.

Speaker 11 (29:14):
She wasn't breathing.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
Then Ray reached for the life back in it saved her.

Speaker 11 (29:19):
She could have easily died that day. A life back
saved her life. What I would say is, don't need
a life back and not have it. Have a life
back and hopefully never need it.

Speaker 7 (31:10):
I was in the living room.

Speaker 4 (31:11):
When I heard my son Carter, who was two at
the time. I looked over and I saw him grabbing
for his face. I grab a life back.

Speaker 7 (31:20):
I put the mask on his face and place push
Paul the life back dislodge the ice cube.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
Now on iHeartRadio. More of the Man in the Arena
the Life Back Radio Show. Here again are Arthur Lee
and Rick Thatcher.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
Jackie Lee, and Danielle the Nursing Home Warrior.

Speaker 5 (31:50):
Wait, so here's the thing.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Give me your take on manipulation, so we'll have to
beware what it made you feel. Tell me a little
bit about that.

Speaker 7 (31:57):
Well, I would say from my experience, what I learned
from it was mostly just to listen to the people
around you that yeah, I totally agree with you and
I would like heard you say that was like absolutely,
And a lot of times they know better than you do.
From at least from my experience, depending on who the
person is, you can try to make a lot of
excuses for them and try to make sense of it.

(32:18):
So when someone else says it. You should definitely listen
a little closer. You know.

Speaker 3 (32:24):
I used to have a kind of a thing in
my head and it was about like being in an airport,
right You're sitting next to someone and you can kind
of talk to them unfiltered. And I often use it
with someone's like complaining, and I say, what if you
were complaining about something, you were sitting next to someone
that said, are you ready?

Speaker 5 (32:42):
Your mind? You have been made.

Speaker 3 (32:44):
So that's kind of the similar thing where you start
one way, but you need someone to go that's not good?
Does that make sense?

Speaker 5 (32:51):
Is that it?

Speaker 4 (32:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (32:51):
Yeah, pretty much. That's what my take on it.

Speaker 5 (32:54):
Now, how do you determine who to share these things with?

Speaker 7 (32:58):
Someone you trust, someone who whose opinion you someone that
knows you well enough and does a situation well enough,
or at least not a whole lot, but just has
a brain and can figure it out. You know.

Speaker 3 (33:09):
One of the one of the things I said as
a dad is, you know, let me s hear we're
friends in second grade. And part of that was you
kind of had a geography, so yeah, you kind of
made friends with the guys around you. You couldn't be
texting with the guy in California, and then I don't
need hanging out with you.

Speaker 5 (33:28):
I have maam. So you really made bonds, you really
grew together like you me and you.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
We're on each other since ten years we were sitting
on Fairfield in grade school. I don't know if that
exists so much, Like you have a couple of good friends, right,
she got it with COVID That destroyed a lot of problems.
Do you do you have you have long term friends
or do you yell at them?

Speaker 2 (33:50):
And you know, I don't. I don't want to appear
to be sexist, but I feel like in my experience,
it's been harder for girls that I grew up with
to have a close kinship my kids same thing somehow,
for some reason, and I'm not sure why, And it's
probably gotten worse with the advent of the phone. Harder

(34:12):
for girls young women to be close and be really tight.

Speaker 7 (34:16):
I definitely would say that there's more monkey wrenches to
be thrown in friendships and stuff like that. It's because
like social media, someone posts something the wrong way, or
you see people hank that used to have me when
I was younger. You see people hanging.

Speaker 5 (34:30):
Out when she was younger.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
Yeah, when you just said that my head almost exploded
a lot when you were younger. Yeah, yeah, okay, back.

Speaker 5 (34:39):
In the day. No, but I remember that too because
it is more pain Like if you know me and
you ragging out, we didn't want to hang out whatever.
She didn't know, right, I.

Speaker 4 (34:49):
Would never find now. I would find out that because.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
I want to, because we are posed to all pictures,
bragging pictures.

Speaker 4 (34:56):
But I would go to someone else's page and then
find that they send a picture up.

Speaker 6 (34:59):
So wouldn't even be on your page like this, Oh yeah,
like it's going down and stuff.

Speaker 5 (35:06):
So here's a here's something that I'll kind of talk
a little bit about. So in connected.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
So when we were all out in the desert riding
motorcycles and YouTube riding together, which is probably one of
the most funniest things ever earth, we have to talk
a little bit about it. When we came through the
gate at you Semite, and I came up that first
big turn and it's that you know, obviously on a
motorcycle was a clip, so your attention you kind of
have a little bit of a rush, and I saw

(35:33):
your semi and all it's grand there, right, and I
had a god moment to me, you know, I said,
oh my, you know that he's the only one that
can make But as they get a chill, I also
had a moment like is this real?

Speaker 5 (35:46):
How could this be real? Right?

Speaker 3 (35:48):
I've seen a picture of half dome and the river
and everything. Well, school, it's beautibule when.

Speaker 5 (35:54):
You experience for real, Right, did you get that feeling?
Were you laughing with brick driving? Were you terrified at
that moment?

Speaker 2 (36:02):
Absolutely terrified?

Speaker 5 (36:05):
You gotta understand these two road in a sleek shot
through the mountain.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
Three wheels, three wheels. But when you when you come
around a corner and see nothing but the great expanse
and mountains in the distance, and knowing this road ends,
no shoulder, no guard rail, and Jackie sitting in the car,
Well that.

Speaker 5 (36:23):
Was that definitely made you more nervous. And I appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (36:27):
But quick, don't on that right, So we'll zoom back.
But I have to tell the story. So they put
Jackie on a bike and teach you how to ride
a motorcycle. She's getting it's going up and down. They
put her on a bigger bike, which they shouldn't have done.
She goes down and crashing into a rosemary bush. Now
were laying on the ground, I don't even know.

Speaker 7 (36:44):
I climbed back up.

Speaker 5 (36:45):
Yeah, so you fell off and lay down on the
ground like you were under the bike a little bit
and out and stood out right.

Speaker 3 (36:51):
So they come on, oh my god, you okay, she
goes smells really pretty in there. That was the answer
to crashing a motorcycle into a bush. Now, that will
go with my asop's fable brain of looking.

Speaker 5 (37:06):
Yeah, and I got to.

Speaker 3 (37:08):
Smell the rosemary when I crashed my mocycle into a bush.

Speaker 4 (37:12):
At fifty four.

Speaker 6 (37:13):
If I crashed, I would have been like, I didn't
break anything. Perception, Yeah, nothing's broken.

Speaker 5 (37:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (37:20):
But going back to aisemite versus realosemite, do we get
to the point that we don't need to see yousemite.

Speaker 5 (37:28):
Because we saw it on the phone, we saw it
on the video, I've seen pictures.

Speaker 2 (37:32):
I'll just say that from the moment that I got
involved with scrolling or reels TikTok and looking at you know,
traveling videos, it just made me want to see it
in person more. I know from you know, experiencing Pebble
Beach in person as a golf course, as a beautiful
venue it's much better to go there and experience itself.

(37:55):
We do, and I think that that desire for folks.
In that sense, it almost serves as travel advertised.

Speaker 6 (38:01):
No.

Speaker 3 (38:02):
I loved it, and that's how I found this mostcycle trip.
But my point, I guess in that as we move
forward with mistrust is that's not real.

Speaker 5 (38:10):
It doesn't really look like that.

Speaker 3 (38:13):
How much does this new technology and the fear and
the lack of trust kind of start closing our world again?

Speaker 5 (38:21):
How do you determine something's bs on whatever?

Speaker 7 (38:25):
I mean, A lot of times you can tell just
from like the camera quality, or you'll see like glitches
in the background.

Speaker 4 (38:31):
You can kind of pick up on a bit.

Speaker 5 (38:32):
Well she's good at like pick it up like girls
and photoshops themself.

Speaker 7 (38:36):
Yeah, that's what it's great to find filters. Yeah, yeah,
but it's I mean, like I think since I've grown,
like growing up around it and definitely see when you
were younger, when I was younger, of course back in
the day, but I definitely have seen the how much
technology has improved and grown.

Speaker 4 (38:56):
It's really scary.

Speaker 5 (38:57):
Have you seen anything yet? Well, you're not sure? I have?

Speaker 7 (39:02):
Oh sure, I watched it again and I'm like, I
can figure it out.

Speaker 3 (39:07):
Yeah, I kind of rely back. I always go back
to like physics or common sense, and they, no, I
don't think that. You know, the iceberg that pulls off
and the guy, you know, surps and I don't think
so it's nothing visual. It's kind of that absurfd and
I know that that would be tough to serve that way.
What about do you how do you catch that? Especially

(39:28):
with men, right, they've got to be uh, you know,
putting it out there. Look at me, I caught a
fish or whatever they do.

Speaker 2 (39:37):
Are we getting into the apps? The dating apps?

Speaker 5 (39:40):
Well, I'm in saying the guy on Facebook, that's genuine fish?

Speaker 4 (39:45):
And then you know, like do you have flags on
dating apps?

Speaker 5 (39:49):
Just in general?

Speaker 6 (39:50):
Like is a red flag to me? I think everybody
is a red flag to me. I have such trust issues,
Like I said before, if somebody wants to help me,
I'm like, why what do you want from me?

Speaker 4 (40:03):
Everybody? Yeah, so like, yeah, it is a guard there,
And I would wish I was more like you.

Speaker 6 (40:08):
I could be more open and free and loving and
more and more like let's let's just what do you want,
Let's just get there.

Speaker 5 (40:14):
But do you think that that will become more prevalent
as this stuff starts, you know, creeping into our mindset
of this is not really your fake, your phony.

Speaker 4 (40:24):
I don't know if you can get more prevalent for me.
I'm pretty much there.

Speaker 5 (40:27):
Yeah, I got that, So it's not gonna matter.

Speaker 4 (40:30):
I'm blowing things up.

Speaker 5 (40:32):
That your generation is going to grow with this.

Speaker 7 (40:35):
Yeah, I definitely think that there's a lot more flags
to be seen when looking into stuff like that, especially
when it comes to photoshop and seeing people online or
even like you can adjust the lighting to make the
water look better and pictures, and but regarding what you're
saying with Yosemite and everything, I think it will be
a lot easier to say, oh, like, it doesn't really look.

Speaker 3 (40:55):
Like that, right, And that scares me because then you
don't put the effort into go there. You're in the
car for what five seven hours?

Speaker 2 (41:03):
That was a long stretch. I've took anchor. I drove
from Yosemite back to camp. Your daughter drove out like
a champion. She had only stepped foot in this vehicle
the day before. For about two hours maybe.

Speaker 5 (41:19):
Buggy that we.

Speaker 2 (41:21):
Called it, side by side. There was like a razor
so this is.

Speaker 5 (41:24):
The Jackies Great Show brought to you Buy her Father.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
I want to give Danielle an opportunity. Yes about threads
and Nursing Home Warriors.

Speaker 6 (41:33):
Okay, so Nursing Home Warrior was created because too many
people who live in nursing homes have been left without
any visitors or people who actually care for them. That
also means the government doesn't care for them either, because
they only get fifty dollars a month if they're Medicaid
to cover their personal expenses. I also mean that the

(41:55):
nursing homes themselves, they don't always care for the residents.

Speaker 4 (41:58):
That's the truth.

Speaker 6 (41:59):
I know this because of thirty five years working in
nursing homes, I have seen some really horrible things and
then being covered up by administration and ownership.

Speaker 5 (42:08):
We think about Nursing Home Warrior.

Speaker 3 (42:10):
Originally it was like an advocate for the people and
I can do it for family used to be able
to get help with getting help for their loved one.

Speaker 5 (42:18):
But then you saw a kind of an opportunity of hope.

Speaker 6 (42:22):
It started off with I will fight for you, I
will take care of your loved ones, or I will
do anything I can to help you. I will go
to the Department of Health, I'll go to the Attorney
General's office.

Speaker 4 (42:31):
We will fix this. And I've been doing this now, not.

Speaker 6 (42:34):
The nursing Home Warrior, but I've been in nursing homes
for thirty seven years, so I've seen a lot and
now seeing hope.

Speaker 4 (42:42):
Because you're doing that.

Speaker 6 (42:43):
Because I realized that with these people not getting the
money that they need to purchase new articles of clothing,
that we started something called Projects Silver Threads where people
will donate their clothing that is appropriate for nursing home residents,
and we have distributed to nursing homes around the Tri
State area. At this point, we've distributed over six thousand
pieces of clothing.

Speaker 4 (43:03):
Thanks to everybody who has And.

Speaker 5 (43:05):
I got to go to Target, but we got to
buy stuff.

Speaker 4 (43:11):
So every box takes new items in it.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
But what you learned it wasn't really it's not really
now so much the money, right, What is it that
you're giving them?

Speaker 6 (43:20):
Giving them dignity, I'm giving them They're feeling like they're loved,
They're feeling that somebody cares about them because they don't
get gifts on Christmas, in the holidays or Father's Day
and Mother's days and now they're getting a new item
that is some kind.

Speaker 2 (43:34):
Of warrior that's really puts a new meaning. And listen,
we're up against a break. We're going to be back
with Raye preby mister three thousand. Give us all the stats,
but I want to talk more on the other side
of Absolutely, we'll be right back, so stay with us.

Speaker 1 (46:02):
Now on iHeartRadio more of the Man in the Arena
the Life Back Radio Show. Here again are Arthur Lee
and Rick Thatcher.

Speaker 5 (46:11):
I love that guy.

Speaker 2 (46:12):
I love that guy, and I was just about to
mention an amazing, amazing man connection. Let's talk about Silver Threads.
Before the break, we were talking to Danielle and then
we got real previous yes coming up.

Speaker 6 (46:25):
So if anybody is interested in donating any clothing to
Silver Threads, you can go on my Facebook page or
which is I guess maybe I could. It's Danielle Pagolotta's
Leeblind good.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Luck, do a search on nursing home warriors.

Speaker 4 (46:40):
Perfect. Thank you for that.

Speaker 6 (46:42):
So we're going to be doing a pop up shop
where pop up shops pop up shot they don't really
have an opportunity to go shopping. Where we're going to
have like clothing racks and different kinds of clothing set
up with mirrors that they can go around.

Speaker 4 (46:57):
Arthur is going to take care of the men's department.

Speaker 5 (46:59):
Yeah, I'm going to be like the guy.

Speaker 4 (47:02):
Yes, exactly to get the guys to do this with
the jacket. Yes, they're going to go shopping with Okay, perfect, Yes,
I will let you know the date.

Speaker 6 (47:13):
We're going to probably find a nursing home that is
probably like in the rock Away, somebody that really has
no family that nobody goes to visit. I don't want
to go to one that's in like Woodbury where families
visit every day. I want to go to one where
they're really really needed. So that's what we're going to
do this pop up shop and hopefully we can do
that monthly.

Speaker 4 (47:29):
That would be the goal.

Speaker 6 (47:30):
And if anybody wants or needs anything that they want
to start a nursing Home Warrior in their town, please
contact me again at Danielle Pagolotta's leave mine very easy
to find.

Speaker 4 (47:42):
That's that's that's somebody's planning.

Speaker 5 (47:44):
Here's here's why it needs to do that. Not only
you know very have a need for clothes.

Speaker 3 (47:50):
It's when they clicked into the the attention and the
feeling of shopping again of right, because when.

Speaker 5 (47:58):
I would take people on the boat.

Speaker 3 (47:59):
Ride on the fireboat, right, they will come off beam
right because he got to do something they used to
do and the you know the joy of ripping across
the bay, right, remember the guy.

Speaker 2 (48:10):
No, absolutely, it brings the youth back.

Speaker 3 (48:13):
Well, it just you know, they funnel down and this
takes them back up. Remember the time we went to
Macy's on forty eighth Street in nineteen twenty seven, we
took the you know, it.

Speaker 4 (48:24):
Just makes them feel human again.

Speaker 6 (48:25):
It makes them feel like they're important, because who doesn't
love wearing a new shirt?

Speaker 5 (48:30):
Right, And you know a lot of people and yourself
included not me, like to go shopping.

Speaker 4 (48:37):
That is where we're totally.

Speaker 5 (48:38):
Yeah, that's for sure.

Speaker 6 (48:40):
Although I just say when we went shopping for the residents,
you couldn't have been happier.

Speaker 4 (48:44):
Well that you were. You were amazing. Thank you so
much for that.

Speaker 5 (48:48):
You're welcome.

Speaker 2 (48:49):
It's at this point of the show each week that
we summoned Ray Preevy. Mister three thousand is down in
Cape Coral, Florida, mister Ray Preedy, mister three thousands.

Speaker 9 (48:58):
Coming to you from I wish I could say Sonny,
South Florida, but it's not it's going to be a
rainy weekend for us, but we kind of need it
down here, so.

Speaker 5 (49:07):
We'll take it rock and roll. Did you listen to
the show?

Speaker 9 (49:10):
Ray, the entire show.

Speaker 5 (49:11):
Don't you love the silvia threads thing?

Speaker 9 (49:13):
I love it, absolutely love it. It was way back.
Kristen worked in a nursing home for many, many of years,
so it definitely hit home.

Speaker 7 (49:23):
Here.

Speaker 9 (49:23):
We understand completely.

Speaker 4 (49:24):
We can start one in Florida.

Speaker 9 (49:26):
I was just thank you, we ken well, folks, let's
get right into it, Bobby, go ahead and run that
number for us. Four thousand, two hundred and ninety one,
say baby, yeah, two thousand, six hundred and twenty children today.
And just a little background, folks on mister three thousand,
because I save my daughter. She was number three thousand

(49:49):
on the Florida road two hundred and fifty six days
ago is when I saved her and since then one thousand,
two hundred and ninety one life. Say. I mean, that's
just as good as it gets, right there, folks, as
good as they get.

Speaker 2 (50:04):
Yeah, man, fantastic. Do you have a save of the week.

Speaker 9 (50:07):
I have a great save for the week. This came
in yesterday was a four year old boy in Maryland
choked on a chicken nugget, causing total blockage of his airway.
Life Back was used one time to successfully dislodge the food.
The parents said that the child couldn't breathe, the color

(50:28):
of his skin was changing, and all required steps was followed.
The food was dislodged the first try and ultimately was
saved by the life Back every time.

Speaker 5 (50:39):
Dude, you know, I know, I know you, and I
know those hit you because you were in that situation.

Speaker 3 (50:45):
But it's so important that you join on and you
continue to make awareness even though you know you went
through it, and for people to hear that because that
is real. I think I posted that one. I said,
this is the real as it gets. That's what you
have to consider. You have to be aware of and
you know, get trained and get a life back. If
you have a child, man, that's a great idea.

Speaker 9 (51:07):
And as a parent, you don't want to you don't
want to be in that situation and not be ready.
You absolutely have to be ready. It's going to happen.
It happened to me, and it's happened to four and
ninety one other people who used the device to save
somebody this happens every day.

Speaker 2 (51:23):
And the last thing you.

Speaker 9 (51:24):
Want to be is a parent in a situation that
you know, when your child is choking and nothing helps
you know, you just you don't want to be there,
trust me.

Speaker 10 (51:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (51:35):
The reason Life Back is sitting right next to me
was seven, you know she was seven then back in
the day.

Speaker 2 (51:42):
When you were a yeah, yeah, back in the day. Yeah,
it sounds like time for your touch phrase life back.

Speaker 9 (51:48):
Far better to have it and never need it than
need it and not have it. The life you save
could be your own. Good night and God bless We
love you, Ray.

Speaker 5 (51:57):
Thank you buddy.

Speaker 3 (51:58):
But I think that's a great way to go out
of course, right, And a lot of times you start
to get that real feeling and why it's great that Ray,
because he's a god guy, jumped in down to help us.
Because you can't tell him that it's not necessary. You
can't tell him to be more sincere when he reads these,

(52:18):
you know, because I've been with him in public and
he will break down.

Speaker 5 (52:24):
And if you haven't, you met Maya. She's awesome.

Speaker 3 (52:27):
Remember when she went wizzing across the floor, totally crashed
and then got up with everything.

Speaker 2 (52:31):
She knows who Pete Rose was. She did, but she
did a Pete Rose you know, superman, and.

Speaker 3 (52:37):
She still is eligible for the whole estate. You know,
the hope the show generates thought and ends with a
positive note. Right, he started with the same plunger in
the garage and now we saved lives like that, So
anyone could do anything and.

Speaker 2 (52:51):
You can get your own life back. If you don't
have one, shame on you. But let's go to www
dot lifeact dot net.

Speaker 5 (52:58):
No.

Speaker 2 (52:58):
I think if folks are listening to this across the
country and have heard the story, maybe not so much
the general discussion, but when they talk, you hear Ray
Preby give the details, the people behind the numbers, and
the families go to Life Fact and get the original.
Beware knockoffs. We've done a few shows now and we
tend to bring it up a lot, and we need

(53:19):
to because there are counterfeits and knock offs out there
that could kill And.

Speaker 3 (53:24):
Once again, if we tie it all the way back,
AI's comment, Yeah, we believe. Right, they get to show
that there's one one of these knockoffs claims one hundred
thousand live safe.

Speaker 2 (53:33):
I want to thank Danielle. I want to thank Jackie,
So we'll be back next week. I'm Rick. I'm with
Arthur Lee, CEO and venor of Life Act on the
Man in the Arena.
