Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Yes, it's Tuesday. We have a head start into the week.
Come on, now, that feels good and it feels beautiful outside.
Oh my goodness, gracious, this is it. We are getting
to that time of year now. I know we're gonna
have some weather. We're gonna be dealing with a storm
or two or five or whatever, but it's starting to

(00:41):
creep in those cooler temperatures. Welcome to the Morning Show
with Preston Scott. Friends. I'm Preston, He's Jose. He's wearing
his Guy Fieri fake hair and Camo top. Do you
have a nice weekend? Very nice? I slip a lot. Good.

(01:05):
You got a lot of little hibernation action. I got
a lot of work around the house. Does okay? Okay,
we're getting into that hibernation season the Bears and Jose.
Our verse today comes from Romans five. Since therefore we
have now been justified by his blood, much more shall
we be saved by Him from the wrath of God?

(01:27):
For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to
God by the death of his son, much more, now
that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by His life?
Here's the question I want to ask you, and it
was really kind of the bottom line point to Sunday's message, which, oh,
by the way, is Monday's message on my blog page.

(01:51):
Uh nahem. Some pronounce it nahom nahem. All three chapters
short book boom. We covered it in one Sunday. Here's
the bottom line. You ready? Are you a friend of God?
Are you an enemy of God? Here's the thing. If

(02:16):
you're walking outside of his grace, if you have turned
your back on God, if you are living in sin
and not repenting, that means doing a oneint eighty confessing
and repenting that sin to him, you're an enemy. We
all have people that we interact with all the time

(02:37):
that are enemies of God? Is that really where you
want to be? Eleven passed the hour? It's the Morning
Show with Preston Scott. All right, the American Patriots Almanac.

(03:01):
We go. It's September second. We left in August and
we return in September. Ah, it's let's see seventeen eighty nine.
On this date, the US Treasury Department is established. Boy,
that got out of hand, isn't it. Eighteen sixty four

(03:26):
Union General William T. Sherman's forces occupy Atlanta. The city
would be safer had they stayed. Nineteen thirty five, the
Labor Day hurricane slams the Florida Keys, killing more than

(03:46):
four hundred nineteen thirty five, you know global warming, that
old chestnut. Nineteen forty four, Navy pilot George H. W. Bush,
later the forty first US President, shot down and rescued
in the Pacific, And in nineteen forty five, one year later,

(04:10):
Japan formally surrenders aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay,
ending World War II. There you have this date in history.
It is National blueberry popsicle Day. You know, over the weekend,

(04:30):
we were celebrating one of our granddaughter's birthdays. We had
to delay it due to a whole bunch of reasons.
So we said, this is the weekend we're going to
do it because no one had to work Monday, so
we could just do it Sunday afternoon and have a
great time. And one of the things my wife put
out because our granddaughter loves fruit, and she had a

(04:51):
bowls of fruit, and so I just went around them all.
I just started picking them all up and eating all
of them. And I was reminded why I don't like
a bunch of them. Eight seedless grapes, They're incredible. Red
seedless grapes are incredible. Next on the list blueberries. Blueberries

(05:14):
are okay. They're not my choice, but they're okay. If
I were out in the wilderness and I needed to forage,
blueberries would be incredible, right, they would be blackberries? Eh, Eh,
they're okay again out forging. Blackberries are interesting though, because

(05:38):
you'll eat some blackberries and they have a little bit
of a hint of some sweetness to them, and then
you'll lead other blackberries and they're like nothing. They're just nothing.
And then I went to the bait of my existence, raspberries.

(05:59):
I can't. I don't know that God made raspberries or
that they are a perversion of Satan and a result
of the fall. I don't know. I just see no
point to raspberries at all. Talk about flavorless and today
is also National Another Look Unlimited Day. Huh. It provides

(06:27):
an opportunity for fall cleaning National Another Look Unlimited Day.
So the day is dedicated to looking around your house
and getting rid of excess things you've accumulated sort of.
They're describing it as think spring cleaning meets fall cleaning.

(06:50):
I would say purge. It's the purge down with that
sixteen past the hour. Hey, did you know? And what
a weekend legendary? Easter Island is technically part of the

(07:20):
nation of Chile, but it's a twenty three hundred mile
trip from Santiago. Didn't know that? That's our did you know?
For the day? How about that? Let me reflect a
little bit on the weekend of Florida State football. We're better.

(07:51):
Paul fine Baum had a really bad weekend and I
couldn't be happier about it. Paul fine Bomb crosses the
line giving strong opinions. That's what we do. I mean,
that's what I do. That's fine boy. He's personal. And
even though he was humiliated with his pick against Ohio

(08:14):
State and Florida State, both of both of whom won
against an SEC team, those teams have no business even
being on the field with them. Okay, Sport FSU was
a thirteen and a half point dog and one by fourteen.
That's a twenty seven and a half point swing that

(08:39):
cost Vegas a ton of money for anybody who bet
FSU to cover, let alone to win. But the interesting
thing about it to me, and we'll talk next week
with Irishafel after the East Texas A and M beat down,

(08:59):
because that's what it's going to be. It's gonna be
a beat down. Florida State is much better than expected,
and I'll tell you why. And this is something that
I listened to Paul Feinbaum this morning talking with Alabama
fans who are just crying in their weedies, and I

(09:20):
get it. We've been there, right, I'm not laughing at him.
We presided over two and ten last year. Excuse me.
Last year, Mike Norvell had guys transfer in that were
former four stars, you know, highly recruited high school players

(09:44):
that we lost out on, and they said, sure, we'll
come to Florida State, but we didn't get football players.
We got highly ranked high school athletes that weren't football players.
We got football players. This time. They went and found
players that might not have been the highest recruited, maybe

(10:05):
a couple of them were, but are just work workers.
We got guys that have played football. And a credit
to that coaching staff. Norvell hired himself a defensive coordinator
after that. When was the last time you saw someone
get punked on a drive? Like Florida State did on

(10:27):
that first drive and then come back and shut down
a team because that's what they did. Tony White after
that first drive adjusted a couple things. It was over over.
Did you think that we were going to play more
physical on both sides of the line than Alabama? I mean,

(10:47):
they're just two years removed from Saban, but they're two
years removed from SABAN. And Tommy Castellanos was right. He
was right. He earned a lot of credibility with his
team Florida State. I will not put a ceiling on them,
and I will not put a basement on them. I
don't know, but they're gonna be a heck of a

(11:09):
lot better than they were a year ago, and that's
gonna be fun. Now, you fans, why do you rush
in the field for no? I mean, there are a
couple of things I've never understood. One is overrated. Why
would you chant overrated in belittle your win? Okay, now

(11:35):
we didn't chant overrated unless we did. I wasn't in
the stadium. I gave my tickets to you know. But
it's like, I don't understand that cheer in general. You're
beating a team and you're calling them overrated, which means what,
your win's not that big a deal. If they're overrated,
your win doesn't mean that much big deal. So what

(11:56):
do you storm in the field for? Act like you've
done it before. That's what I don't understand about storm
in the field. Now, we're gonna pay for it. And
if you fans storm the field again, it's gonna cost
FSU more money. It goes from fifty thousand to one
hundred thousand. So the stop storm in the field. It's
not that big a deal. Beat Alabama. We're better than

(12:18):
they are. We are and unlike Paul Finbaum, we're more
talented than they are. Yeah, Alabama, FSU doesn't have any
of the talent. Yeah, they kind of do, and I
think they proved it. FSU's a better team. Sorry. Sometimes

(12:40):
the two star three stars are better than the four
star five stars because they're football players and they play harder,
and they're better coached. They're better. It's okay, we dealt
with it all last year. It's okay. It's okay. But
there's more to that story that we'll get to next.

(13:01):
Believe it or not, there's an angle of the football
game that's gonna make its way into the big stories
next twenty eight minutes past the hour. I went a
little long there, but what could be expected when the
time of football. I just I had to I had

(13:30):
to point out something that a listener pointed out to me.
How is it possible that the paper allegedly of record
in this community, how is it possible that they they

(13:54):
aren't able to print anything about the football game in
Sunday's paper. They've got a season opening commemorative edition with

(14:17):
a photo taken probably from a cell phone in the
stands because they didn't even send a photographer. How does
the paper of record in the capital city not cover
that story? I'll tell you how when it's printing deadline
is so early because it's printed out of town. The

(14:42):
Sunday paper is printed allegedly in Gainesville now, and so
the deadline was after the game was over or before
the game was over. So your Sunday paper doesn't have
the biggest sporting news in the community in its paper,

(15:03):
and it's not printing on Monday, so today's the earliest.
That's sad, it really is. There was a time you
wouldn't just have a you'd have multiple reporters, you'd be

(15:28):
covering all different kinds of angles. You'd have photos, you'd
have the box score, you'd have everything. This is what
they've done to themselves. Second big story in the press.
I think that's a big story. I think it's a
big story that in any community the local paper has

(15:48):
so newtered itself that it cannot cover the biggest sporting
event of a weekend until three days later. Don't you
think that's a big story? And it makes me wonder,
why is anyone even bothering? Fewer are you should know?

(16:14):
It's interesting tallassee reports at least in the capital city,
and it's the same across the country. True reporting outlets
are growing, and those that refuse to change Gannett are dying.
They're cutting more and more and more, and they're too

(16:35):
arrogant to admit it. Vitamin D, My Friends, Vitamin D
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Taking a vitamin D pill
or drops daily at the correct dosage is helpful to
you in the aging process. Significantly so. Randomized trial of

(17:01):
one thousand people aged fifty and older showed that those
that took the vitamin D gained dramatic improvements in key areas.
You can get it naturally from eating fatty fish like salmon,
the right kind, wild caught salmon, by the way, sardines, tuna,

(17:22):
some wild mushrooms are rich in vitamin D. Being out
in the sun is helpful vitamin D. And the Farmer's
Almanac is out there. Now there's the Farmer's Almanac, and
then there's the Old Farmer's Almanac predicting a harsh winter.

(17:42):
The Old Farmer's Almanac, though, says that Florida is going
to have a colder than average set of temperatures and
above normal precipitation for the winner. I love it. I
know that that's going to just annoy a bunch of you,
but I love it. Forty minutes past the hour your

(18:04):
Big Stories Here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
He offers a state of the Nation every single day.
This is the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
Newspapers selling a Florida state stuns, Alabama and historic an opener,
historic front page, Historic Historic. It was the first game
of the season and they beat a team that ranked
eighth whatever. Oh my gosh, so they're selling commemorative front

(18:46):
pages Bama Busters. They beat a declining football team that's why.
I just I don't agree with the rushing of the
It's just it was no anyway, Appeals Court ruled that
most of Trump's tariffs are illegal. Doesn't say in this article,

(19:15):
which is really weird on epic times, which court of appeals.
But it was a seven to four ruling. It does
not take effect though. They're letting them stay in place
until October fourteenth, which allows Trump to appeal to the
United States Supreme Court. Now again, I think the tariffs

(19:36):
are an appropriate way to bring some balance to the
force do it and and are are really important to
bring about some changes, and that it's working anyway, Look

(19:59):
that the law fair continues. Democrats are going to do
all they can to oppose anything that helps America. That's fine,
that's that's that's why their party is just continued. To
just let them do what they're going to do. That's fine.
We're gonna. I had the lead research assistant of the

(20:21):
program send me some sound of Scott Turner. I had
not heard him. He is the Housing and Urban Development
Secretary and he was taking questions on the role of
the government in helping people. His answer was spectacular. So

(20:43):
we're gonna, We're gonna see that up in the next
couple of days. Let you listen to it. They're trying
to expand these opportunity zones. It's actually an idea that
Tim Scott and and credit where Credits due Senator Corey
Booker of New York proposed in twenty seventeen. They did it,

(21:08):
and now they're going to do it again because we
have Trump back in the White House. The idea is
to get private money, and in fact, ninety billion dollars
of private money was invested in opportunity zones across the country.
That's that's where you're making progress. You're seeing private money

(21:29):
move in to help solve problems. And what it boils
down to is you got to get people off of welfare,
and you do that by doing it smartly. You help
them get on their feet, and then you say you're
not staying here long, but you remove the impediments to
them progressing. And then I thought this was an interesting story.

(21:56):
Gavin Newsom announced the end of the week that California
Highway Patrol crime suppression teams are being deployed into major
cities of California, and that interesting timing. Trump sends the
National Guard into Washington, d C. Immediately has an impact immediately,

(22:19):
and all of a sudden, guy have a newsom says,
I'm gonna we're gonna do something. He doesn't need to
send the National Guard here because you're getting off your button.
You're doing something good. The Trump Effect. Forty six minutes
after the hour, more to come. It's a busy day

(22:40):
here on the Morning Ship. All right, we have manly
minute next hour, a lot of interesting stories. In fact,
we're gonna start kind of a string of stories that
tie together here in a minute. US Congresswoman Cat Camick

(23:02):
is confirmed. Mama Bear will be joining us. If you
have not heard. She and her husband Matt have a
beautiful baby girl. And so we'll visit with the congresswoman now. Mom.
That's so cool, So happy for her. And also Chance Painter.

(23:24):
He and his wife Sorayah are new cast members in
the show Mountain Men, which debuts tomorrow night. They'll be
with us today. He will. We're gonna talk to him
from Alaska getting up early. Yeah, he is. Cannot wait

(23:50):
to talk to him. That'll be a lot of fun.
So we've got a good show for you today. We
always have a good show for you. And when we don't,
it's my fault because I'm just throwing interceptions, just fumbling around, stumbling, bumbling, fumbling.
That's just what happens sometimes. This was sent by a listener.

(24:15):
We talked last week about the horrible story of chat
gpt being sued Open Ai chat gpt being sued by
a family because the chat bot AI chat bot basically
engaged in a relationship with a sixteen year old young

(24:35):
man to the point that he confided in this AI
chat bot, and the chat bot guided him into how
to kill himself, telling him how to tie a knot,
how to do it, the specific way. They went through
all the different methods of suicide, went through all of it,

(24:55):
taught the young man how to dodge the parents. I mean,
the list goes on and on. It was incredible. Listener
of the program said that this summer in June, at
one of the public school libraries, flyers were laying around,

(25:16):
how are you I'm feeling stressed, anxious, down, lonely. Tests
is a chatbot. You can talk about your emotions, text
high and then the phone number to start chatting with Tests.
Chat anytime dare night twenty four to seven and it's
from the Northwest Florida and WF Health Network, as seen

(25:40):
in the Wall Street Journal Psychology Today The Guardian Business
Insider WT question mark exclamation point, question mark exclamation point?
What are we doing? Why in the world would this
be in a library? This needs to be Look wherever

(26:05):
you live, you need to be looking for things like this,
and then if you see them, you need to be
demanding they be taken out. And if the librarians don't understand,
you show them the story that we talked about last week.
You look it up, find it. You'll find it. Open

(26:26):
AI chat GPT being sued over suicide of sixteen year old.
You'll find it. What I'm telling you, friends, is this
I am reminding you, and I look, I'm rolling the
dice here sharing this as much as I have at
this hour, because I know we got kids listening. I
know we do. Parents. I'm putting it on your radar

(26:52):
AI only in very limited use with your parental supervision.
I'm telling you this is a door you do not
want your kids walking through. Come back with the second
hour and we're going to take this whole AI discussion

(27:14):
two steps further. And it's it's awesome and it's horrifying
all at once. Tuesday, September second. Here on the Morning Show.

(27:48):
It's the second hour of the Morning Show with Prestin
Scott Show fifty four forty three. It's Tuesday. Don't forget
that friend's Tuesday September, the two September second. I'm Preston.
That's say great to be with you. Go Knowles, Go Knowles.
Fam You loses its opener. Bummer couldn't score a touchdown

(28:16):
ten to nine, ouch bibble. Hopefully things will turn around
for Fam You because they they have to play a
game or two to make some money. Those are usually l's.
Fam You has had good seasons of late. But we'll see,
we'll see where it goes. But the Knowles, of course,

(28:38):
good weekend. They play at home again this weekend, East Texas.
A and m Is coming in for a beat down.
They're coming in to be paid. That's why they're playing.
So it is what it is. I had mentioned to
you more stories on AI. The godfather of AI. We
talked about this before. Jeffrey Hinton. He is a Nobel

(29:01):
Prize winning computer scientist who pioneered the neural network. He
is now out there banging the banging the drums, saying, look,
artificial intelligence is advancing too fast to control, and it's
a problem, and it's a danger. You said, most people
are not able to comprehend the idea of things being

(29:22):
more intelligent than us. They always think, well, how are
we going to use this thing? They don't think, well,
how is it going to use us? He's fairly confident
artificial intelligence will drive massive unemployment, pointing to early examples
of tech giants like Microsoft replacing junior programmers with AI.

(29:46):
He said, the larger danger goes far beyond the workplace.
The risk I've been warning about the most is the
risk that will develop an AI that's much smarter than us,
and it will just take over. It won't need us anymore.
The only silver lining, he joked, is it won't need

(30:08):
us because it'll be made of silicon. This is the
guy who's responsible largely for the development of this technology.
He resigned his role at Google so that he could
speak freely about the risks without implicating the company. He
warned that creating digital beings more intelligent than humans poses

(30:31):
an existential threat. We've heard that before. It's been tossed
around so much. I think people are immune to the term.
He said, there's a twenty ten to twenty percent chance
that AI could wipe out humanity. Get your head around that.

(30:53):
That's a one in five chance. I don't know what
else to say. AI is being used in cybercrime and
unprecedented ways. It's allowing people that really don't have the
skill of the acumen, like these high end cyber criminals.

(31:21):
It's allowing them to operate with very little skill because
of artificial intelligence. I just pointed out to you in
the last segment before the end of the first hour,
how an artificial intelligence chat bot chat GPT talk to

(31:49):
young man through all of the different steps, all of
the pitfalls, all of the ways to be detected, and
helped him kill himself. The chatbot feels no remorse and

(32:13):
it's mind because that's what it has a mind. It
did what it was asked to do. This is a danger.

(32:34):
I'm just making sure that these stories are in your
brain so that you are aware because more and more
teachers are relying on AI. Look using AI for fun,
little stupid stuff. That's fine. How do I repair the

(32:55):
drain on a dishwasher? Okay, go to YouTube and then
if you need some help implementing it. Fine, but that's
not what we're talking about. We're talking about vulnerable young
minds having an attachment and creating a relationship that they

(33:16):
entrust their innermost feelings and thoughts to that then use
those feelings and thoughts to help that young person achieve
the end that it thinks it once, he or she
thinks it once, and it's just it's a disaster. Be advised,

(33:40):
moms and dads. Eleven minutes past the hour, kind of
a connecting the dots to that story. Next the Morning
Show with Preston Scott on US Radio one hundred point
seven double UFLA or on NewsRadio double UFLA Panama City
dot Com. Now, we were just talking about cybercrime and

(34:26):
how it expands through the use of artificial intelligence, and
we talked last week. You remember the story about one
billion dollars I think it was alone last year taken
from senior adults wiping out entire retirement accounts savings accounts.

(34:49):
Three prong approach. Senior adult response to a text, a
phone call, an email. They get into the system telling
them that there their accounts are at risk. Here let
me look and see and then they pick the accounts
that they want, and then they go to step two,

(35:13):
which is somebody posing as as a member of the
financial the fraud and lost division of the banking institution,
and then occasionally a third level somebody pretending to be
the government saying, yeah, you need to move your money
to a third account immediately. Now, that's probably a good
idea what they're recommending. That makes a lot of sense

(35:36):
to us. Here's what we're seeing. It's all bogus, all
of it. Well, they've caught twenty eight of them. Twenty
eight members of a Chinese organized crime ring have been
charged in four federal grand jury indictments. This is just
small potatoes. This is just sixty five million California. We're

(36:00):
in New York, Texas, and Michigan. Twenty five of the
defendants have been arrested. Network has operated since twenty nineteen,
based in Socow. Many are illegal immigrants. No, oh, come on,

(36:21):
pull my other leg. They pose his technical support agents,
government officials, bank employees. The list goes on and on.
Here's what's interesting to me. You know who helped catch them.
You might have heard me talk about a guy named Perogi.

(36:42):
He operates a YouTube channel called scammer payback. He and
his team, for lack of a better way of putting it,
they're better at scamming than they are than the criminals are.
They catch the criminals. They're on our side. And trust me,

(37:03):
he doesn't need to scam anybody. He's making so much
money on his YouTube channel because he busts these people.
And so he documented evidence that the FBI used to
track these people down. He caught them. Scammer payback. They're
able to while they're receiving these calls, They're able to

(37:29):
infiltrate their network while they're on that. While they think
they're being clever and hacking into something, this guy Pirogi
and his boys are busy hacking into their entire entire network.
They steal all their files, They they tap into all
of their cameras. They tell them their names, they tell

(37:52):
them where they just got takeout food from. They know
exactly where they are in India or China or wherever.
They know everything. Sometimes they'll put on a voice, oh, well,
I really think that I should do this, and then
the scammer starts to get upset, and then well I'm

(38:12):
just gonna I don't know, And all while this is
going on. They're just hacking into their system, the bad guys.
They're hacking into the bad guys system, and they're taking
control of it. And it's hilarious. If there's a channel
that I want you to watch, it's Scammer Payback. But
according to US Attorney Adam Gordon, not all heroes wear capes.

(38:35):
Some have YouTube channels, and so this guy and others
played a role in capturing part of this crime ring.
As fate would have it, we're going to connect our
dots to another story. Seventeen minutes past the hour. Oh

(38:57):
how things just tied together like a twenty two almost

(39:18):
twenty three minutes past. All right, so follow me. This
just happens. I wish I could say I planned all
of this, but I didn't. I had to make one swap.
But I did plan us going from that terrible story
last week about chat GPT and that young man to
the dangers of AI, to how AI is being used

(39:40):
by cyber criminals, to the story of the capturing of
some of the people that have been stealing seniors' retirement money.
And by the way, that does not mean oh glad,
that's over with. Oh no, no, no, no, that's tip
of iceberg stuff. There's thousands out there, which leads to

(40:02):
this story. So apparently, last couple of days, India's Prime
Minister Narendra Modi hung out with Vladimir Putin and Jijimping
of China. What are we supposed to be nervous about this?

(40:32):
Let me tell you not. Trump's response to all of this,
because they all took shots at the US and at
Trump for bullying economic bullying. Trump said, what very few
people understand is we do very little business with India,
but they do a tremendous amount of business with US.

(40:53):
They have offered to cut their tariffs to nothing, but
it's getting late. They should have done it years ago.
Facts for people to ponder. Here's what I know. Yes, interestingly,
China is the source of the criminals that have just

(41:14):
been arrested for the cyber crimes. North Korea is in it,
Russia is involved in it, but India is absolutely ground zero.
How often you get those calls? I've admitted this is
a weakness in me. There are times I'm like, I
just ignore, swipe it and market as spam. Move on.

(41:37):
My caller software identifies it as spam, so we just
move on. There are other days I'm a little bit
more I'm feeling a bit more frisky, and so I
answer the phone, and usually there's There are a few tells.
One of them is the silence hello, and when it's

(42:00):
a potential spammer, I'm very abrasive. Hello. Click sometimes is
what I get. They don't want any part of it.
They could just feel it. Other Times there's silence, Hello,
you called me, what do you want? Then there's a click.

(42:21):
Other times the silence is followed by this a beep,
and then you hear the boiler room, the sweat shop
where all of them are working. And I know that
some of them are hostages in certain parts of the
world they're being made to do this, but most of
the time they're not. Most of the time they love

(42:43):
being in on scamming people. And it's hello, this is
Bill from and it's like, dude, your name's not Bill,
stop it. I bet the farm of your last name
is Patel. But no, it's not Bill, it's not Tom,

(43:05):
it's not Bob. And it's a scam And I will
occasionally say, how does your mom feel about you lying
to people and trying to take their money for a living.
Is she proud of you? I mean, is this something

(43:26):
you brag about at family reunions. I'll get I'll have
this conversation and then usually the profanities are unleashed on
me and then they hang up. Mission accomplished. That's evil.
I have no problem with that. But I'm looking at

(43:51):
India and Russia and China and is this now the
new axis of evil? Is that what we're seeing here?
Until India's Prime minister deals with the scammers that are
rampant throughout that country, I have no time for him.

(44:13):
I don't care. I don't care. They got stinky food
and there are a bunch of scammers. Want no part
of it. Go away, hang out with your buddies. That's fine. Yeah.
And this is the Morning Show with Preston Scott thirty

(44:40):
six minutes past the hour. Good morning friends. I'm Preston,
he is Jose This is the Morning Show. Doctor Joe
Camps will be back with us next Monday from a
lengthy time away from doing the show. And I think
he's been doing a little fishing here and there. Got
to hear some exploits of that. But one of the

(45:01):
health related stories here, I've got a few saved up
that I want to get through this week, but one
of them is how vitamin D can slow the aging
process over a four year period. This appeared in the
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Taking daily vitamin D prevents

(45:23):
telomeres from shortening. Now I knew nothing about this, so
I had to read into this a little bit. Telomeres
which are often compared to the plastic tips on the
end of shoelaces. You know those little plastic tips that
you can you can thread them through your the eye
of your shoe lace area. There. They are protective ends

(45:46):
on chromosome strands. As people age, the telomeres get shorter,
which can increase the likelihood of poor health mortality. According
to studies, now, the vitamin D actually lengthens the telomeres,

(46:06):
makes them longer. They did a study of one thousand
people age fifteen older, divided them into two groups. One
group took two thousand international units of vitamin D pills
a day, the other took a placebo set of pills,
and after a four year period, people taking vitamin D
showed less than half of the telomere shortening than the

(46:29):
placebo groups. So it worked very demonstrably. Vitamin D tamps
down inflammation, which is one of the major causes. We
talk about inflammation all the time with doctor Hertz and
doctor Zataman when we have them doing our optimum held
naturally segments. Inflammation is an enemy of the body in

(46:53):
all forms, and so this is worth talking to your
doctor about. I know that when I get my blood
work done every year or two where I do a
complete set of labs, my vitamin D level is good

(47:14):
because I take drops every day. I do a vitamin
D drop. I don't take a pill, I take a drop.
And so I'm just saying, got me some long telemeres
Farmer's Almanac predicting pretty cold winter, the Old Farmer's Almanac,

(47:40):
published in seventeen ninety two, saying Florida is going to
have colder than average temperatures and above normal precipitation well now,
and that is it's kind of cutting off the prediction.
I'm looking at it from the Old Farmer's Almanac weather map.

(48:01):
It's cutting off just to the west of Tallahassee, just
to the east of Panama City. So those of you
listening in Panama City, you might not get quite the
cold that the rest of the state. I mean the
rest of the state, as in all the way down
the peninsula down to the tip is expected to experience.

(48:22):
So yeah, so we'll be keeping an eye on that.
And then if you're in the capital city, I just
I don't know why you bother. The local paper had
nothing in the Sunday edition about the Florida State football game,
and it was a three point thirty game. I could

(48:44):
understand it if you're playing in Stanford. I think we
played Stanford later in the year on the West coast
and it's going to start at nine o'clock Eastern. Okay,
I get it. You might not have much in there,
if anything but a score. But nothing on a game
that kicked at three point thirty and had no delays
what and so whatever you're going to see is now

(49:08):
three days later. That's just that's cosmically horrible. Forty one
minutes passed the hour. Take you inside the Beltway for
a couple of stories.

Speaker 2 (49:23):
Next, Welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (49:35):
All Right, we've talked about the subway sandwich assaulter. Guy
worked for the Department of Justice, and what I think
this story illustrates because it's connected to that story is

(49:56):
how there are people burocrats, longtime federal workers. There are
some that don't care who's in office. They're gonna do
their job, you know, what tip of the cap to you.
But there are others and they view their work in

(50:19):
the public sector as an entitlement.

Speaker 3 (50:24):
How dare you tell me to do anything differently than
the way I want to do it.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
It's a grown up version of Gretethunberg.

Speaker 3 (50:34):
How dare you?

Speaker 1 (50:38):
I would not do what that orange man says. So
we've got not just a subway guy who, while they
did not charge him appropriately because a grand jury, really
a grand jury, decided not to lost his job fair enough. Okay,

(51:03):
it's a salt. I guess if the bread had come
from a maybe a different subshop that doesn't bake their
bread daily, it might have been a little bit more
of an injury. Subway break bakes their subrows fresh, and
so it probably wasn't that harmful. But that's not the point,
is it. It isn't that he wasn't hurt, it's that

(51:27):
he was attacked. Doesn't matter with what Well, now we've
got the story of Elizabeth Baxter. She arrived for work
on August eighteenth, boasting to a security guard that she
just made a obscene gesture. She flipped off a National
guardsman at the Metro Center stop and said bleep the

(51:50):
National Guard. That same day, she was observed on security
cameras extending the middle finger towards a guardsman saying bleep you.
One week later, she arrived at work and again told
a DOJ security guard that she ateed the National Guard
and told them to bleep off. Well, the crusty old

(52:16):
white woman liberal is now finding another job. She has
been terminated. Guess what. She worked in the same building
as the subway sandwich thrower, doing the same job paralegal.
You know, it's interesting. Crusty old white women are some

(52:38):
of the worst ill liberals out there. You see them
driving their priuses. Not all of them. Not everyone who
drives a prius is a crusty old white liberal or illiberal.
Just a bunch of them. They've got their their Biden
Obama stickers still on there. Maybe they're Biden Harris sticker,

(53:00):
maybe a Trump with a red circle and a slash
across it. You see them, you know exactly what I'm
talking about, looking over their glasses, wearing their birkenstocks. You
know exactly what I'm talking about. Not all people wear birkenstocks,
are I liberals? Just most of them? Love it? Love it.

(53:25):
Lost your job good, you deserve it. And Tom Homan
orders are they have located twenty three thousand of the
three hundred and twenty three thousand children that the Biden
administration lost unaccompanied miners. This is one of the tragedies

(53:51):
of the Obiden administration. Three hundred and twenty three thousand
unaccompanied miners were lost. They the government. Biden, Oh, Biden,
don't know what happened to them? How is that possible?
How do you let a child into the country unaccompanied

(54:12):
and then just oh well, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (54:15):
You know, kids, you know, kids will just get lost. Hey,
I you know, I lost mine at the at the
convenience store. I'm looking at at at at some beer.
They're looking at at some sour patch kids, next thinging out, poof,

(54:36):
They're gone.

Speaker 1 (54:37):
What do you do?

Speaker 3 (54:37):
Eh, we've located twenty three thousand children in how.

Speaker 1 (54:48):
Many months has he been in office? It's it's the
ninth month. So in eight months we found at least
twenty three three thousand. Do you realize how much work
that took forty seven minutes after got a manly minute,
Get you ready for Congresswoman Cat Cammick. Oh, it's Tuesday.

(55:20):
I think we got fooled by the day off. Time
for another manly minute. Remember mail by birth, man by choice.
We raise our young sons to be men, real men,
manly men who smell good. Sorry, no, I'm not anyway.

(55:47):
What you do is you take advantage of things that
happened seasonally. For example, when we got to the spring,
I said, teacher's son, all the different things that you
do in the yard. How to mow the lawn. There's
an art to mow in the lawn, breaking leaves, taking

(56:07):
care of whatever you take care of in your yard.
Now we're in what season? What season are we in?
We're in hurricane season. Teach your son. Teach your son
about why you have your little emergency preparedness kid. What
you do when you hear a storm is coming? Do
you need to sandbag? Help? Let him help? Teach him

(56:30):
why you don't fill the sand bag all the way full,
Why you only fill it two thirds full so that
he can get smushed in and fill in gaps? How
many I mean how many batteries do you need? Waters?
All of those things obviously age appropriate. Don't don't overwhelm

(56:52):
the little fella. But he, even at a young age,
can can learn and understand a man roll in helping prepare.
You live in Florida, there's a responsibility to be as
prepared as you possibly can be for a storm. Do

(57:15):
you have a radio transistor radio? Does it have batteries?
You have candles? Do you have lights? Do you have flashlights?
Do you have rechargeables? Do you have backup battery banks?
Do you what kind of food do you have? Do
you have little ster nos? All of the things that
you need, zip block bags for insurance papers. Son, this
is I'm putting all of these papers here, and we're

(57:36):
gonna put them in the safe, or we're gonna put
them in the dishwasher. Why in the dishwasher, Dad, Well,
you put them in the dishwasher because it's waterproof. You
ever see water come out of the dishwasher? No, I don't.
That means it seals really good and water can't get out.
So if water can't get out, we assume waters not

(57:56):
getting me in either. So we're gonna put the papers
on the top shelf of the dishwasher if a storm comes. Okay,
that sounds smart to me. All right, you begin to
train your son. There you go, and there's your mainly men,
and take advantage of the seasons. Hey, did you know
this is something useful that finally came out of the

(58:17):
local paper. Did you know that it was an FSU
graduate that designed Taylor Swift's engagement ring. Look at me?
Huh am, I am I down with the trendy news,
all the swifties out there. That ring was designed by

(58:38):
FSU grad Kindred Lubick. She's a ring designer who, by
the way, got her degree in psychology, which is another
illustration of do you ever work where you get your degree?
I mean, I'm just asking back with Congresswoman Cat Camick.

(59:04):
Here we go, Tuesday, September, this second show fifty four
to forty three of the Morning Show with Preston Scottam Preston,
He's ose great to be with you. And who do
we have here? Oh my goodness, it's the Mama bear
us Congresswoman Cat Camick. Cat congratulations, by golly.

Speaker 5 (59:28):
Oh thank you for literally sitting here our little family
of three, and baby Aggie is eating her second breakfast
as we speak.

Speaker 1 (59:39):
So are we going with Augie? Is that the name
around the house? Aggie?

Speaker 5 (59:44):
Well, officially she is Augusta.

Speaker 1 (59:46):
Dare I know that?

Speaker 5 (59:48):
Yes, I call her Augie. Matt is fond of Gussasaurus.
You know, as any good child of the nineties, we
all love Jurassic Park, and so he's he's hoping that,
you know, he's gonna be able to get her into dinosaurs.
And I already told him, I'm imagining me coming home
at one point and they'll be in dino outfits running

(01:00:11):
around the house. So you've got Aggie, We've got Gusta Augusta,
We've got Gustasaurus. We've got still baby Peanut. It's anyone,
it's anyone's guests.

Speaker 1 (01:00:23):
Could anything have really prepared you for this blessing?

Speaker 5 (01:00:27):
No, No, I meant one. I still think it's crazy that,
you know, you walk out of you deliver your child
and then they're like here you go, and it's like
there's no manual for this, right, It's like this weird out.
And we like to think that we're very competent human
beings and adults, but nothing prepares you like becoming a parent.

(01:00:50):
There there is no preparation. It's just so overwhelming in
terms of, you know, you feel so blessed and lucky
and you're in awe of this amazing little child, and
it is it's the best thing ever. I can't believe
that I waited so long to do this.

Speaker 1 (01:01:06):
I almost feel guilty talking about anything else because your
mom now and you've got your little girl with you,
and it's it's like, I don't want to ruin it
by talking about other things. So I'm going to delay
just a couple more minutes because we shared the news
of little Augusta's birth with the audience, and I think

(01:01:29):
it's safe to say based on the email I received,
people just overjoyed for you and Matt and know the
blessing that children bring to lives in just enriching the
life of a mom and a dad. And she's got
two great parents. I know that. And I would imagine
the staff sort of kind of is going to be
fighting over her.

Speaker 5 (01:01:51):
Yes, we've already seen where people are, you know, nicknaming her,
and she's going to be kind of the mascot for
the team for sure. She's just an incredible little little human.
I mean, she's I know, I say perfect, and I'm
exceptionally biased. Of course, every parent is for their kid,
but she's just amazing. And it is so true what

(01:02:14):
they say that you don't know what real love is
until you have a child. And Matt and I just
feel so incredibly lucky. I mean, it was no doubt
a brutal labor and delivery. We spent six days in
the hospital, but you know, we are so so lucky
to have a healthy, happy little girl. And I just

(01:02:37):
know that she's gonna do incredible things and we're just
gonna love her and do the very best that we can,
as all parents do. And it just puts everything into
a different light and perspective and certainly makes me want
to fight harder for our country and for her future.
And I do think being a parent makes you better
at your job, I really do. I'm already I mean,

(01:02:58):
we've been up since five, We've already done you know,
TV hits, and we've already started talking to the team.
And that's like, of course, you're even more busy now
than you were before, but it just it means so
much more when you have your child's future kind of
in your hands and you want to do right by them.
So we're very excited, so blessed, and we can't thank

(01:03:19):
people enough for the incredible outpouring of well wishes. We
really do have the best community in Florida, and we
just can't say thank you enough, truly.

Speaker 1 (01:03:31):
Kat have you been You haven't been back to Washington
since your child's been born, right, correct?

Speaker 5 (01:03:38):
We just got back yesterday.

Speaker 1 (01:03:40):
I'm going to guess that at some point that's going
to happen. Do you have any expectations of whether you'll
be treated any differently because you're now a mom?

Speaker 6 (01:03:52):
You know, so.

Speaker 5 (01:03:55):
I'm not sure how you know it's going to go.
I'm only the fourteenth woman ever to have a baby
while serving in Congress. And if you think about it,
there's been twelve thousand people that have served our nation
in Congress, only about four hundred, and I think twelve
have been women, and fourteen of them have given birth

(01:04:16):
myself now included the capital and Congress is not really
set up for working parents. You know, there's not changing
tables really in all the bathrooms for a mom like
me who's breastfeeding. You know, it's one of those situations where, okay,
how do we make this work? And you know We've
talked to the Speaker and the leadership team and they're like, well,

(01:04:40):
you know, you can just got to use a bathroom.
And I'm like, you know, it's funny because Congress makes
the laws, but yet we can't follow the laws that
we make because that's actually illegal, you know. And so
we're we're slowly educating our colleagues on the needs of
working parents, and we're really lucky that I can bring

(01:05:03):
her to the capital with me. And ironically, Matt, as
a firefighter, gets paternity leave, members of Congress do not.
We don't get sick time or vacation time, or paternity
leave or maternity leave. I know that that's a common misconception.
We also don't get free childcare. That's another misconception. And
so you know, we're just doing what we can to

(01:05:24):
make it work. And we think that our experience might
illuminate things for some of my colleagues and make it
better for families across the country. So we're going to
figure it out. We're going to make it work. And
I think one of the important things that I've realized
right out the gate is your time management changes, Your

(01:05:44):
priorities shift dramatically, and all of a sudden, you're not
waiting for the perfect plan. You're just executing. You're making decisions.
So I think it is actually going to make me
more decisive and a little bit more aggressive, which some
people are like, oh that's.

Speaker 1 (01:06:02):
Hey, God Cat Cat Camick with US US congresswoman from
Florida's third District and new Mama here on the Morning
Show with Preston.

Speaker 2 (01:06:09):
Scott, The Morning Show at Preston Scott on News Radio
one hundred point seven WFLA.

Speaker 1 (01:06:27):
Well, she just fired a shadow of about all of Washington,
DC that now, being a parent, US Congresswoman Cat Camick
is going to be the ultimate mama bear when it
comes to being a bit more aggressive when it comes
to legislation and fighting hard to imagine that, horror, Cat.
I think some people might view it that way. I'm curious, though,

(01:06:50):
has your time away, as much as you can detach
yourself from what goes on in Washington and in your district,
has it allowed you to be maybe more laser focused
on a given set of issues.

Speaker 5 (01:07:05):
Yeah, you know, obviously your perspective is you know, always
colored by you know, your experiences, your personal experiences, and
this last month in August not only were we continuing
to work. I mean I think I worked up until
about two days before I delivered baby Augie. And you know,

(01:07:26):
just hearing from from people, there's a lot of local
things that we were working on. But I'm seeing a
big shift towards how do we fix this healthcare system?
Because we really don't have a healthcare system. It's more
sick care. It's completely broken, and so there's a tremendous
amount of work that we have to do there. And

(01:07:47):
you and I were North Florida and we see where
the closing of hospitals, the closing of primary care, people
going out of business. It's leaving these massive health deaths.
And that's the result of a lot of different things.
But you've got insurance that doesn't really ensure anything anymore.
Your premiums are going up, the quality of care is

(01:08:09):
going down. That's something that needs to be addressed. And
that goes back to really I believe the Affordable Care Act.
Was it perfect before the Affordable Care Act Obamacare? No,
But Obamacare made it thirty thousand times worse. So we
have a lot of work in that space to do.
The other thing is, of course, government spending and waste
fraud abuse. We're garnishing the wages of our children and

(01:08:32):
our grandchildren. And I'm going to lay blame on both
the Republicans and Democrats on this front. Ye Republican Democrats
have beden negligent in their duty to put forward a
budget and do the regular order of twelve appropriation bills,
which this is September. We have fourteen legislative days to
get that done. Otherwise we end up in a Continuing

(01:08:55):
Resolution a CR which is just a rubber stamp of
Nancy Pelosi spending era programs. And that's unacceptable. It is
absolutely unacceptable. So we have to get that under control,
get our children's futures on the line. And baby Augy,
she deserves a fair shot at whatever she warns her
future to look like, just like every other kid does.
They don't need to have the burden of one hundred

(01:09:17):
thousand dollars plus of debt on their shoulders from the
minute that they're born. So we have to have some
cajones and we've got to get this wrapped up, and
we need to do away with the port that ear marks.
I'm the only Republican in the state of Florida that
doesn't do ear marks, and that's a third. Get rid
of the insider trading, get rid of all this corruption
that is happening in Washington. That's where I'm going to

(01:09:38):
be focused is cleaning up Washington, cutting the spending, and
actually fixing a healthcare system that is so broken. That's
really where I'm looking at right now.

Speaker 1 (01:09:48):
Kat Camick with us. We're going to take a break here,
coming back one more segment here on the Morning Show
with Preston Scott. You've heard the laser focus US Congressman

(01:10:11):
Kat Camick, Florida's third district, only one in Florida in
the Republican Caucus not doing earmarks. How long have I
been asking for that? Those of you that are veterans
of the show, it goes back years begging congressional reps
set the example stop taking the pork. She's the first

(01:10:33):
one to actually do it. Kat, I gotta ask you
about this. What is President Trump thinking buying shares of
Intel and pursuing shares of a defense company or owning
a defense company.

Speaker 6 (01:10:47):
That's socialism, it is, you know, and I will admittedly
say I struggle with with the News on that because
as a constitutional conservative, that is as absolutely fundamentally against
everything that I stand for.

Speaker 5 (01:11:04):
And I believe, I respect the President. I know that
his heart is in the right place, but I think
that the administration is wrong on this one. So I
think there's going to be some unwinding that we're going
to have to do. I also think that even more broadly,
you look beyond the Intel, look at what our grid
and all our telecommunications nationally have embedded in them that

(01:11:27):
we still haven't corrected. That is all Chinese owned infrastructure.
And I would rather us focus our time, attention, and
resources on rooting out all of this. I mean, I
got a report that nearly sixty percent of all of
our national security DoD equipment has CCP manufactured produced equipment

(01:11:51):
inside of it. That's the stuff that we need to
be focused on. And so I know that he's focused
heavily on the investment in the United States and getting
these companies reshort and on shore right. But we have
a lot of work to do in getting the CCP
out of our basic infrastructure. It's going to take some work,

(01:12:13):
and I'm not thrilled about the decision on Intel, but
we've got a lot of moving parts here that we've
got to focus on.

Speaker 1 (01:12:19):
I know agriculture is a big thing. This will be
the last question I have for you today because I
want to respect your time with your your husband and
your child. The reconciliation package has some stuff in it.
I want to say it's section four thirty five, four
thirty seven or something dealing with some Basically, it allows
complete shielding of liability to the pesticide companies out there.

(01:12:45):
It's snuck in there. It's it's a it's a it's
a nightmare for consumers because it basically says, uh, glifisate
is not you can't you can't prosecute for that anymore,
among other things.

Speaker 5 (01:12:58):
What can you tell me, Well, just like the pharmaceutical companies,
no one should have absolute immunity from any sort of liability, right.
And so that's actually something that as a member of
the ag the Committee, we've been kind of socializing what
is it going to look like when we come back
in September. Now that we're back, we're having briefings on

(01:13:20):
this because it never should have been put in the
bill in the first place. So I think long term
that's going to get rectified because again, you have a
general consensus out of the conference that no company, no
industry should have blanket immunity. When people have a right
and one know what's in their products, they have a
right to choose what products they want to consume. Now,

(01:13:41):
we know that GLA to state and others have been
widely used in agriculture, but we also know that there
are concerns and their complications as a result of that,
So we need to deal with that in a smart way.
One of the things that I get frustrated with is
you have the Bill Gates of the world who are
constantly circuiting, you know, short short circuiting the system where

(01:14:04):
they've got new coatings that they're putting on products that
they've basically been able to buy an organic label on
and it's not organic. We have to have a conversation
about food safety in the country, and that's long overdue.
I think RFK is trying to have that conversation, but
you have a lot of entrenched bureaucrats that don't want
to have that conversation, and so we have to figure

(01:14:26):
out a way to get this done in a way
that's smart. And I think the AGD Committee is going
to be taking it up this month because don't forget
we still have a farm bill that is going to
need to be passed. We're already a year over the
deadline for the farm bill, and the farm bill is
critical to a state like Florida, where you have three

(01:14:46):
hundred specialty crops. That is insanely important. Now, the One
Big Beautiful Bill did have that provision, but it also
had some huge winds for Florida, and I think that
that's important to highlight because everyone wants to highlight the
bad and not always look at the good. We can
go back and fix that, but I also think it's
worth mentioning that Florida made out like bandits on the

(01:15:08):
upside when it came to some of the ag provisions
in the One Big Beautiful Bill as well.

Speaker 1 (01:15:13):
Kat, Thanks for the time. You are the best. My
advice to you and Matt come courtesy of Bill Cosby.
He said, remember, only change your baby when you can
no longer pick her up. Why remove the only thing
she can accomplish at this stage of her life. Don't
take the child self Esteeve.

Speaker 5 (01:15:35):
Noted Matt. Matt is staring at me right now saying
what in the world, shaking his head. Thank you so much,
appreciate you thank you, thank.

Speaker 1 (01:15:43):

Speaker 1 (01:16:07):
All right, ruminators, welcome, final half hour of the show
for the day. It's a show fifty four to forty
three of The Morning Show with Preston scottis OAIAHM. Preston.
I am really geeked about this segment. If you've listen
to my show at all, you know I am a
habitual watcher of Alone and Mountain Men. I love the series.

(01:16:29):
I've watched it since its inception, and the new season
comes up tomorrow night, eight o'clock Eastern, seven o'clock Central
on the History Channel. And joining and it's weird to
say cast but now part of the show. Chance and
soirea painter and Chance Painter joins me right now, brighton

(01:16:50):
early in Alaska. Chance, How are you? Hi?

Speaker 7 (01:16:54):
Hi? I'm doing good? How you doing?

Speaker 1 (01:16:56):
I'm terrific. I'm fascinated to know how did you and
your why if your family get connected to doing the show.

Speaker 7 (01:17:06):
Honestly, so, we were living in a in a wall
tent on our property, and we were running our Instagram
and stuff, and we just we had people like messaging
on Instagram about doing a TV show, and I don't know,
I always kind of didn't answer them or whatever at first,
and then like a few months later we were talking

(01:17:28):
and I honestly just kind of cold called the the
studio and just asked them if they were interested.

Speaker 1 (01:17:36):
Really, and yeah, I guess, And now did you know
about the show? I mean, how remote of a life
are you living over these last however many years were
you aware of Mountain Men the program?

Speaker 7 (01:17:51):
Yeah? Before we also like do brain tan like the
tom Or guy. Yep, we we would watch him Braintan
beavers and stuff, you know, and we would beavers are
incredibly hard to brain tan, and so we're trying to
figure out how he was also getting them so soft

(01:18:12):
and so. And we also would like to watch the
Marty guy. We really like Marty two. Yeah, but yeah,
we we we weren't living like super super remote, like
I guess your definition of remote is you know, subjective? Sure,
like like how long does it take you to walk out?
I guess that would if it takes you more than

(01:18:32):
a couple of days to walk out. I'd so you're
pretty remote, but.

Speaker 1 (01:18:37):
How many days it take you to walk out?

Speaker 7 (01:18:40):
Not only one? Yeah, you know we're not like a
fly in only area or nothing.

Speaker 1 (01:18:47):
Chance. Tell me about your background, Soreya's background. How did
you decide to adopt the lifestyle? Because living in Alaska living,
even if it's remotely a one day while talk, I mean,
that's not for everyone. How did this come your way?
Why did you go this way route?

Speaker 7 (01:19:07):
Well, we we just wanted to raise our like kids
in like a more natural way, and we were I
was living in a wal tent and like burden sheep
down in like northern Washington, and my wife's also from
that general area, and I was living in the wal

(01:19:31):
tent and I just kind of lived in it for
so long that when kind of thought about like going back,
it just didn't really seem right, you know, just.

Speaker 1 (01:19:44):
Just thought it was something you wanted to do.

Speaker 7 (01:19:47):
Yeah, I mean yeah, Like it's just it's hard to
go from living in the woods in the forest like
full time and then like go back to living in
like like a city, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (01:20:00):
Oh? Yeah, I mean, well I don't really know what
you mean, but I can get I can understand it
from the perspective of watching others in this lifestyle over
the years. On the show Chance stand By, We're gonna
take a real quick break here, we're coming back, got
another segment. I could spend a day with this guy,
but I'm gonna ask him what it's been like spending

(01:20:21):
his days with a camera crew around he and his family.
That's next here on The Morning Show with Preston Scott.
It's The Morning Show with Preston Scott. For any of
you who are fans of the program Mountain Men, our

(01:20:45):
guest Chance Painter mentioned Tom Orr. This is his last season.
Tom's a legend on this show and he's he certainly
is a legend in the world that he occupies trapping,
and it's been fun watching him pass along his skills
to a young kid that that's the son of a

(01:21:07):
gentleman who's been kind of helping him over the last
few seasons of the show. But with me, Chance Painter
and he and his wife Sirea, their three children are
in this season of Mountain Men. What was it like
to share your life with not just the video crew,
but realizing Chance that you're going to be sharing your
life with millions of people.

Speaker 7 (01:21:27):
Uh, you know, it was honestly kind of like the
I think our boys they definitely liked the camera guys
at first, Like they have like drones and they think
they're airplanes and they you know, they love airplanes.

Speaker 1 (01:21:39):
Sure, but.

Speaker 7 (01:21:41):
It was definitely kind of strange having the camera guys.
But the realization of having people watch us, I think
is it doesn't really quite feel like real yet. Like
earlier in the winter when we were like running trap
line and it just kind of felt like I was
just hanging out with my camera guys, right. It just yeah,

(01:22:06):
it seemed like more they were like just like my
friends rather than making a TV show, you know.

Speaker 1 (01:22:10):
Uh huh, Well you mentioned your friends. What are friends
and family? What's the reaction to the news that you're
going to be on the show, and then anything that
you've shared with them along the way, what's been their
reaction to it all.

Speaker 7 (01:22:27):
I think basically everybody was pretty surprised that I was
going to be on TV. I'm considering I'm basically just
like a simple bush trapper guy as of right now.
My sister is the one that wanted to be on
TV and whatnot, And yeah, and I'm just.

Speaker 1 (01:22:48):
Yeah, so is your sister going to join you next season?
Is she gonna move in? Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:22:55):
Yeah, she's gonna come up here and pa't hide with us. No,
she'd never.

Speaker 1 (01:23:00):
Tell tell me this. Are you going to? Are you
able to watch the show when it premieres tomorrow night?
Have they shown you the series yet? I mean, how
does that work now that you've done this the first
season with you in it?

Speaker 7 (01:23:14):
So technically, like we don't have a TV or like
cable or anything. We don't have like History Channel subscription, right,
I guess technically there's no way for me to watch it.
But I'm sure there's a way the producer could send
me like a link or something, yeah, or some some way,

(01:23:37):
some form of way. But I'm honestly, I'm probably going
to be like moose hunting or something.

Speaker 1 (01:23:43):
So it's not it's not that big a deal. Now
that you've done this the season, they're producing the show
and it's going to do whatever it's going to do.
You're you're still busy doing what you have to do
literally daily to survive.

Speaker 7 (01:23:59):
I mean, yeah, yeah, there's yeah, I got a I
got a hole, got a whole litany of chores. And
things I got to get done before the freeze up.

Speaker 1 (01:24:09):
Tell me this was the experience such that you you
want you're willing to do this series again? Was there
an agreement to do X number of years or is
it season by season? What does it look like for
you next year?

Speaker 7 (01:24:24):
It's seasoned by seasons that we are contracted to do,
and I would I would definitely do it again for sure.

Speaker 1 (01:24:31):
Okay, so you you got enough out of it in
terms of it wasn't so intrusive that that you couldn't
you know, enjoy the process.

Speaker 7 (01:24:45):
Well, no, yeah, I thought it was fun. Like it's
definitely a good job. I'd rather be doing that than
a lot of things, that's for sure.

Speaker 1 (01:24:54):
Tell me this, I've always wondered, chance, where does the
crew stay when they're doing all of this filming day
after day, week after week? Are they pinching tents somewhere?
Are they flying in on helicopter? What where is the crew?

Speaker 7 (01:25:11):
Well, it entirely depends on where the shoots are, like
the location that they need to be. But yeah, they
stay in like a wall tent or like an arctic
oven tent or something like that.

Speaker 1 (01:25:23):
Okay, well I appreciate it. Yeah, go ahead.

Speaker 7 (01:25:28):
I if they needed the helicopter in, I'm sure that
they could if they needed to. But yeah, that's yeah,
it's entirely specific. Usually they just write snow goes and
or something.

Speaker 1 (01:25:40):
Well, I appreciate you making time for us this morning,
and I wish you and Soreya and the kids nothing
but the best, and I look forward to seeing you
tomorrow night on the two. Buddy.

Speaker 7 (01:25:51):
Yeah, yeah, thank you very much.

Speaker 1 (01:25:52):
Man, I appreciate it. You'd be well. Yeah, YouTube Chance
Painter with us this morning. Cannot wait. Mountain Men, the
Legend Tom Moore. He mentioned Marty. Marty's a pilot. I
love Marty as well because of that. He's been teaching
his daughter. He can't. He left the series for a

(01:26:14):
couple of years, came back and yeah, he's the skill
sets that people have to develop to do this is
next level because you have to do it or else
you don't survive. So you just either do it or
you pack up and go back to that city that
he said he can't even conceive of living in. Forty

(01:26:37):
eight minutes past the hour, Chance Painter from Mountain Men
here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott, The PNC
Banks Startup showcase presented by Akron Energy Systems to support
