Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's been decided by the blood. You're someone that Jesus loves.
John one, John four nine through thirteen says this, This
is how God showed his love among us. He sent
his one and only son into the world that we
might live through him. This is love. Not that we
loved God, but that He loved us and sin his

(00:23):
son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends,
since God so loved us, we ought to love one another.
No one has ever seen God. But if we love
one another, God lives in us, and his love is
made complete in us. This is how we know that
we live in Him and he in us. He has
given us his spirit. Boomshachalach. Morning Friends, Welcome to Friday,

(00:52):
August the eighth, on The Morning Show with Preston Scott.
He is Jose, I'm Preston. Friday means what's the Friday?
Also means we are clearing off the desk sort of.
I've got a stack of stuff that I just yeah,
I'll get to it eventually, but we have a lot
of stories to talk about, a lot of segments to

(01:16):
get through. We have a Florida Man sort of story.
We've got the top ten quotes from Kamala Harris's book
One hundred and Seven Days, details her presidential campaign, which
lasted one hundred and seven days. The quotes are courtesy
of the Babylon b You can you can tell where

(01:37):
that's gonna go, and much more so, stay with us.
It's ten past the hour. Don't worry. We're here to
make it all better. It's the Morning Show with Preston
Scott opening up the pages of the American Patriots Almanac

(02:06):
August the eighth, Double Check. In eighteen sixty six, Queen
Emma of the Sandwich Islands becomes the first queen to
visit the United States Sandwich Islands otherwise known as Hawaii.
Eighteen seventy six, Thomas Edison receives a patent for the mimiograph,

(02:31):
used for a century to make multiple paper copies until
the electronic copier took its place. Who remembers being asked
to go to the office to make dittos? That was
a mimeograph machine. I absolutely I remember being asked, Preston,

(02:53):
would you please go to the office and ask them
to make some dittos of this a ditto machine. Miah.
And by the way, I can't hear the word ditto
without thinking of rush Megadiddo's rush. That's how so many
callers would start their segment, which means I agree with

(03:20):
what you've said. Nineteen seventy four, President Nixon announces he
will resign the next day due to the Watergate scandal. Well,
I'm not a quirk. Let's see here. Two thousand and seven,
Barbara Morgan becomes the first teacher to safely reach space
board the Shuttle Endeavor. Christa mccauliffe, you may remember, died

(03:42):
in nineteen eighty six in the Challenger explosion. What else
do we have here? It is National Pickleball Day. I'm curious.
Why is today National pickleball Day? I mean, why today?

(04:04):
Was it invented on this day? Pickleball I've heard people
describe it in a lot of different ways. Some people
think it's whiffle ball meets ping pong meets tennis. Some
people think it's uh, I'm looking at a different description here.
Some people think it's kind of a combo game between
badminton and tennis and table tennis. I don't know. I've

(04:33):
never played it. I have I have a pickleball set
up confession. I'm just I'm a nerd. I want level concrete.
I want it to be regulation. I don't just hitting
a ball back and forth over in net. It's like,

(04:54):
come on, now, let's put the lines down, let's play.
That's just the competitive nature in which is not good.
I'm able to tame it, i am. But anyway, it
is a National Waaburger Day. Okay, okay, Global Sleep under
the Stars night. Yeah, that's all I'll talk about. There's

(05:19):
some others, but no, no, not gonna go there. Today
on the program, we are going to talk about more
cancer breakthroughs. We're going to talk about UFOs. We're going
to talk about kudzu. Do you believe that there's a

(05:41):
topic called kudzuo cooking? Are you kidding me? We've got
We've got what's the beef? We've got the best and
worst good news story and course headlines from the being
a Dad jokes. I mean, there you go, friends, why

(06:04):
would you go anywhere else? Sixteen minutes past the hour,
let's go, let's go. It's the Morning Show at Preston,
Scott Okay. Today. Tickets go on sale if you are

(06:32):
interested in the event coming up this November Friday, November seventh,
at the Atterley Amphitheater at Cascades Park here in Florida's
capital City. Our friends at First Commerce Credit Union celebrating
eighty five years of serving the community. Thank you very much,
tip of the cap, well done you. Teaming up with

(06:54):
Leon County Scott Carswell presents the John Williams Cinematic Cellbration

(07:17):
It's an outdoor event, obviously the Amphitheater, But there you go,
there you go. Now the did you know for the day?
Did you know the mystery meat spam? Have you eaten spam?
Are you a spam guy? Oh? You better believe it? Really?
Love me some spam? Why? I'm not sure? Why does

(07:39):
anyone love spam?

Speaker 2 (07:40):
Sandwiches is nice and salty, goes good with eggs and
cheese on your choice of bread.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Love it?

Speaker 3 (07:48):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Okay, okay, it's made in Austin Minnesota. Did you know
that it is popular on the Hawaii Islands? So much
so it's served in McDonald's. Now it's it's it's pork, right,

(08:16):
it's it's pork and and ham. And I mean it's
it's it's a pork ham is a pork product, right,
But but I mean, what what is it? And I
know some of you are I know what some of
you are thinking, Well, what's so strange about that you

(08:37):
eat a McRib? I know what you're thinking. But I
just I ate spam once as a kid and it
was just it was funky to me. I don't know why.
And I'm fine eating sausage. I'm I'm a big pork fan, huge, huge,

(09:02):
but I can't get my brain around spam. And I
know for a lot of people, it's like it's almost
cult status. It's a thing trying to figure out different
ways to prepare it. And I suppose with eggs, Okay,

(09:25):
I guess don't. That's disturbing when you rub your belly
like that. It just is another story here. If you're
traveling abroad and you're going to Paris, there are warnings
all over about the pick pocket plague of the city.

(09:50):
US Embassy says better than two thousand passports are ripped
in Paris every year, and they're they're like, it's called
a crush and grab. That's one of the most common
ways that they do it. Slam into you and and

(10:12):
and while all that tussling's going on, someone's picking your
pocket and they're like experts at it. They they recommend
do not carry any more cash and you're willing to lose.
And don't look like a tourist, even if you go
to the tourist spots. Don't look like a tourist dressed

(10:32):
like a Parisian. I don't know what that means. I'm
just saying, I just feel like that might be a
little bit light on the feet, you know what I'm saying.
There Now, it's like cross bags, everything zipped. I would
even go so far as to say that your zipper
has a lock on it, no rear pocket, wallets.

Speaker 4 (10:58):
I just.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
I'll be honest with you. Stuff like that. It's just like, yeah,
why do I even want to go there? Because I
don't want to punch someone in the face. It's to
the extent where they say, if two people approach you
asking for help with something, get away, get away. If
someone spills something on you, forget about it, walk away.
Get away. They work in these teams and they you know,

(11:25):
someone asks for help, someone asks for directions, while another
person's picking your pocket. One person creates an encounter or
offers to take a picture and no, or you asked,
they ask you to take a picture. No, don't do it.
Didn't that take the fun out of travel? You're welcome.

(11:46):
I'm glad I could help. Twenty seven minutes past the hour,
Remember the crush and grab it's a thing. The Morning
Show with Preston Scott on News Radio one hundred point
seven WFA. All right, just to get this on the radar,

(12:09):
we're learning that there may be a motive for the
shooting at Fort Stewart, and apparently the young man who
did the shooting was the victim of horrendous bullying because
he stuttered from the moment he entered the army. He

(12:35):
was described by others in the armed services as mercilessly
bullied and made fun of to the point where he
quit talking. He just stopped. Given that he shot coworkers,

(12:58):
and understanding, this is not excuse. Making this is explanatory.
There's a big difference between making an excuse and offering
an explanation. This is explaining a very I think there's
a lot of potential merit to him getting to a

(13:23):
point where he was just over it. He had apparently
sent a message to family members saying that he loved
them and that no matter what, he'll be in a
better place. And this was the day before the shooting.

(13:44):
There is no excuse for what he did. There's no
excuse for bullying people. Just there just isn't. I don't
care what it is, I don't there's just you don't
bully people. Anyway. That's a story that's now circulating NBC

(14:11):
News as that you may recall, might have been last week,
week before. I think it was a couple of weeks ago.
We talked about the pilarm Mo mob the immunotherapy treatment

(14:32):
that was working with glioblastoma, which is a rogue cancer
that operates in brain tumors and usually is a death
sentence after diagnosis. Patients usually live an average of fifteen months.

(14:54):
There's a second treatment now targeting glioblastoma. Sixty five year
old woman from New Jersey was part of a clinical trial.
She did have the surgery the Gentleman with that again epilimumab.

(15:15):
He did not have brain surgery. He did have chemo radiation.
This lady had surgery and chemo radiation and this particular treatment,
this trial was being done at a center Banner University
in Phoenix, Arizona, doctor George A. Joseph Georges, and it

(15:43):
deals with the immune system. Yet again it's a different
form of treatment. In this case, the new treatment primes
the immune system to detect and kill tumor cells by
creating a vaccine directly from the patient's tumor, which is
collected during surgery. The head surgeon said, we were picking

(16:05):
up all these various tumor cell types and then we're
teaching the immune system how to attack the tumor, even
the small cells that evade surgical resection. The treatment uses
something called dendritic cells. So to make a mental note,

(16:25):
the Diaconos Oncology announced just a few weeks ago that
the first patient has been dosed with Phase two of
the clinical trial and that they believe the trial will
be available in twenty sites around the country. So patients

(16:46):
with recurring glioblastoma should look for clinical trials that may help.
And again that's Diaconos dia ko Ns Oncology. I'm holding
onto this story as I'm holding on to the other,
so that if anyone I got email about the last story.

(17:08):
And then lastly, fermented stevia, which is a natural ingredient.
It's a natural alternative to sugar. Fermented stevia where they
marry it with a probiotic and this is from the

(17:28):
International Journal Molecular Sciences. Found that the result kills pancreatic
cancer cells while sparing healthy cells. Pancreatic cancer is one
of those cancers that is very resistant to traditional treatments radiation, chemo, etc.
Doesn't respond to it. So this is a massive breakthrough.

(17:53):
Who knew fermented stevia. Fascinating story behind that they use
the bacterium commonly found in fermented foods like sauerkraut, pickles,
and kimchi. There you go, forty one minutes after the hour.

(18:14):
I mean, I gotta believe that's encouraging stuff, right, all
of that it's encouraging news. That is the sound of
a train wreck. We just make it sound better. Terry

(18:41):
sends me a note from Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania. Listening, I
figured out something on my second trip to Europe. Everywhere
I went, locals would approach and instantly speak English. How
the heck did they know I'm an American. I studied
the locals, and the first thing I noticed is very
very few were clean shaven with hair combed. Their clothing

(19:05):
was also wrinkled and hobo looking. I stopped shaving, combing
my hair, and worrying about how my clothes looked. Bingo.
Not one waiter, waitress, vendor would approach me speaking English.
Every single one approach speaking their native tongue. How not
to stick out like a tourist look homeless. So there

(19:27):
you go, Thank you, Terry. Well done. Hey, we were
just talking about some medical news and I think incredible
breakthroughs that are coming against very aggressive cancers. And isn't
an interesting how immunotherapy using your own immune system does

(19:55):
an amazing job out. Let's set that aside for a second.
There is here, at least here in the Sunshine State,
there is a shortage of doctors. There's legislation that they've
kicked around dealing with nurse practitioners and giving them more
leeway to prescribe and diagnose. Pulk County dealing with a

(20:24):
shortage Florida Polytechnic University and Orlando College of Osteopathic Medicine
have announced a new six year accelerated medical degree instead
of eight years. Six The program will limit acceptance to

(20:46):
twenty high achieving students a year will require a minimum
SAT score of thirteen to ninety, an ACT score of
thirty one, and a GPA of three point five. However,
a medical college admisis test will not be required. Here's
my question, are you comfortable with that? Are you comfortable

(21:10):
with six years versus eight? Or I would be fascinated
to know what a doctor, a longstanding doctor, thinks of this.
I think I can guess, and I think what doctors
will say to you is, you can't take shortcuts on
dealing with people's health and understanding the body and how

(21:33):
it works and operates. But at the same time, you
could argue that doctors are frequently taking on diagnosing issues
in parts of the body that they just don't understand,
and so I think it's a mixed bag. I'm not

(21:53):
sure that this helps either. For example, I know that
for the most part, primary care doctors do not how
to hand do not know how to handle orthopedic injuries.
You know, orthopedic surgeons. They want to do surgery that's
that's there. That's how they make money. They do surgery,

(22:16):
and and so I'm always hesitant about going to an
orthopedist for diagnosis of something. I want to be seen
by somebody that can help me avoid surgery, not have it.
Does that make sense? And so to that end, we

(22:36):
had Chad gray On a couple months ago. We're going
to have Chad on again later on this month because
there it just points to the bigger issue here is
having enough people provide knowledgeable care for the things that
you need care for. Now, I'm grateful that there are
more and more primary care physicians that are embracing nutrient

(23:02):
alternative care healthcare options instead of let's just hand someone
a pill. You know, the push away from antibiotics happened
years ago where it's like, we can't give too many antibiotics.
You got to be very careful or they lose their

(23:22):
ability to do their thing because your body reacts to them,
adjusts to them, and the antibiotic doesn't work. That's why
they tell you when you take an antibiotic, take it all,
don't shortcut and save some. They tell you to finish
because of that reason. If you don't kill the infection.

(23:43):
It comes back, only it's learned. Oh that's what that is.
That's a medicine designed to kill me. Well, we'll just
change a little bit, and it's not as effective anyway,
long winded way to say. I'm not sure I like
this idea. I'm not sure I don't like this idea,
but it's a health care cair challenge we're facing in
this country. Forty eight minutes past. UFOs are next here

(24:05):
on the morning show, Director of National Intelligence Tulsa Gabbard

(24:28):
acknowledging the possibility of aliens, not the illegal kind coming
across the border, but the other kind. Just remember, all
we have to do is get them to drink the water.

(24:50):
There's some people laughing right now. Some of you are like,
you're an idiot. Some of you are laughing because you
get it. We'll just leave it there.

Speaker 5 (25:02):
This is a.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
This is a story from Epic Times interview with the
New York Post Podforce one podcast, released just a couple
of days ago. I have my own views and opinions
in this role, I have to be careful what I share.
When pressed for a clear answer on whether she thought

(25:25):
aliens existed, she said yes, stressing she had no new revelations.
Gabbard pledge transparency when it comes to what it can disclose.
We're continuing to look for the truth and share the
truth with the American people. She of course oversees eighteen
intelligence agencies and said she still has quote a lot
of questions. Remember remember last year the New Jersey sightings

(25:50):
that people were going, what in the world was that.
I've heard what the public official line is referencing government
statements that it was a mix of lawful personnel, personal
professional and government aircraft. I just personally still have a
lot of questions that are unanswered because it wasn't just
New Jersey. It was happening in different parts of the country. Yeah,

(26:10):
I don't believe the responses we got. Trump for his part,
he's not a believer, he said, No, I'm not. I
can't say I am, he said, But there's some serious
people that say, there's some really strange things flying around
out there. Why wouldn't there be some things? Given the
size of the universe? JD vance big time into it.

(26:35):
What do I think? Well, on a personal level, I
think that UFOs are let's do it. Second hour of

(27:06):
The Morning Show with Preston Scott, He is Jose dressed
in black. He walked in do a burn and ring
of fire, looking like looking like a Hispanic Johnny Cash.
I'm Preston, good morning and welcome. It's Friday, August eighth. Good.

(27:27):
I had, uh, I had someone send this to me
and say this would be a fun topic, and and
I I clicked the link because I trusted the sender,
and lo and behold I was. I was in shock

(27:54):
at what I was looking at. Now, let's put some
context to this. We talked about how the vines are
destroying tree canopies, and vines are in fact just I mean,

(28:17):
they're out of control. I think, for example, Leon County,
Leon County needs to hire a bunch of people that
own goats to go crazy and start taking down these mediaans.
Some of the homeowners' associations need to hire goats. But

(28:43):
a listener sent me an article from listen to this
Garden and Gun Magazine, which as an online presence gardenangun
dot com under Food and Drink. Article written by Carene
Sanders clements the weird and wonderful ways you can cook

(29:06):
with kudzu Really exclamation point from roasted kudzu chips to
a cool cocktail trick make the most of the South's
most infamous vine. And so when I read inside this thing,

(29:29):
I get a history lesson on kudzu and then some suggestions. Now,
before we get to the suggestions, it turns out people
have been cooking kudzu for centuries. It should come as
no surprise that it's big in the Asian cultures. China

(29:49):
originally was the starting point of it. Then it went
over to Japan. A lot of fiber and cloth is
made from it. There it's used in medicine, but there
have been culinary applications in Japan for hundreds of years.
Here's the history as it relates to the United States.

(30:12):
In the nineteen forties and fifties, the government paid southern
farmers to plant kudzuo in order to combat erosion. If
you remember the dust Bowl, it's an infamous chapter in
American history where the winds just blew soil away, and

(30:32):
so the idea was to try to limit that by
planting kudzu. Plus, it was cheap feed for livestock. Ah,
But the best laid plans of mice and men lead
to unintended consequences, and kudzu just took off, even though

(30:55):
it could be considered on a monocrop land far land.
They could plant kudzu and turn it into a cash crop.
You could develop kudzuo as a cash crop. There was
a book in nineteen seventy seven called the Book of Kudzu,

(31:19):
and it talks about the perception of the plant in
Asia and America and information about it that provides a
bit of a baseline that people started using for cooking it.

(31:40):
And so when we come back, what you can and
cannot do with kudzu? Just in case you want to,
I'm not telling you. Not a chance I'm doing it,
not a chance. I would be happy to have some
goats come over to the green space near my home.

(32:04):
Callaren Lakes. Would be wise to hire some goat ranchers
and bring them out there and turn them loose. Just
you put a portable pen in and you turn them loose,
and then you just go through an area and they
they'd have large areas done within a week. But when
we come back, what what do you cook with kuds?

(32:26):
How do you cook kads? We'll get to that ten
past the hour. Don't say we're not responsive to the
to the people. Yeah, it was Todd who sent me
the email. I tracked it down and he came across

(32:55):
this article a few years ago. He said this would
be fun. I agree, although again, city counties across the
southeast are not addressing the issue. You know, we make
such a big stink and hairy dealt out of live
oak trees and protecting the canopy. Well we're not protecting
the canopy. And these vines kill trees. They literally smother

(33:23):
them to death. Now, there are three main parts of
a kudzuo plant if you're just tuning in. This is
from an article in the Food and Drink department in
Garden and Gun Magazine, The Weird and Wonderful Ways You
Can cook Kudzuu. Really, yes, really, there are three parts

(33:46):
of the plant worth experimenting with. You can't hit the
seed pods or the vines themselves, but the root. The
root can be roasted like a root vegetable. Kudzoo Starch,
taken from the thick taproots, is the plant's most valuable product.

(34:09):
Gluten free, dairy free thickener. It can add an extra
crunch to the breading of fried food, act as a
binding agent in pies and other desserts. Made into tamalies
or infused into teas. Currently, importing the starch from Asia
is expensive, but there are people in the United States

(34:31):
trying to do something with the roots of a kadzu plant.
The leaves the second part. A lot of leaves are
not the ones you want to use. The older leaves
are fuzzy and fibrous. They do not cook down no
matter what you do. You want to choose smaller and
younger leaves. You can saute them, you can steam them,

(34:55):
you can boil them, or you can deep fry them.
The Book of Kudzu says that you need a little seasoning.
You bake the leaves like kale chips on a silicone
baking Matt three seventy five for fifteen minutes. They're not
as meaty as kale, but they have a nice, roasty,
crispy salty flavor.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
Ah.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
And then there's the flower. Now, kudzu does bloom in
the late summer. They have a soft purple flower and
it has a very distinct, almost kool aid grape like smell.

(35:41):
As a result, it turns out the blooms make a
great grape like jam or jelly. They've been used as
a base for creamed brule, and some incorporate them into
a cocktails, but they require a lot of soaking, and

(36:05):
you need to be aware of kudzuo beetles. See that
right there stops, that's there. You go. No, No, I'm
not dealing with little beetles that I can see, or
or microscopic ones. No, not gonna happen. But some do.
They They bloom July late to late September apparently. And

(36:31):
I couldn't Honestly, I couldn't tell you because I pull
the I pull vines down in my yard as quickly
as I can. I admit that I fall behind. Like
you just can't keep up. I mean, you get this
one little thing that starts sticking up and you're going,
oh boy, there's a vine, And next thing you know,
it's covering your plant, it's covering your shrub, crawling up

(36:53):
your tree, it's reaching up and they're so demonic. So
many vines and not obviously we're not necessarily talking about
katzu here, because there are vines that are not, you know,
clad with spikes and thorns, but they're a bunch are

(37:15):
so you always have to have the right gloves to
go get them. Or you're gonna be very unhappy. And
I just you start pulling, and it's almost like, okay,
this is gross. It's almost like peeling sunburned skin. You
just can't stop. You start pulling vines off of plants,
you cannot stop. The only advice I'll give you on

(37:38):
that front is start at the bottom. As of now,
I've not found anything that truly kills vines back into
the ground, killing the tuber and two berds. I've not
found anything. So I try to grab vines from the
bottom up and then rip them out from there. But

(37:59):
you'll damn at your shrub. Yeah whatever, trust me, the
shrubs saying thank you because it can breathe again. Everything
you wanted to know about kudzu. And yes there's a cocktail.
It's called it Electric Lemonade and Kudzoo's used in it. Whatever.
Seventeen past the hour, come back with a Florida Man

(38:22):
sort of, story time for Florida Man. Sort of.

Speaker 6 (38:36):
If you read something insane, I probably did it.

Speaker 2 (38:40):
Come on, everybody, I'm fout of food.

Speaker 7 (38:42):
The box is going ahead and google my name.

Speaker 8 (38:47):
Now there is no man to the sins I have committed.

Speaker 1 (38:50):
And we all feel man. We have somebody and we
all say man or Florida plow man. This story comes
courtesy of producer Jose Can you see he said potential

(39:12):
Florida man segment And I looked at it, and of
course he sends me to a Facebook page. It's like,
clearly he doesn't know me. We don't go and do Facebook.
But I was able to look up the story nonetheless
Flagler County. As reported by WSVN. During the hiring practice,

(39:41):
twenty nine year old Autumn Bardisa claimed she'd completed the
educational requirements to become a registered nurse, said she passed
the National Licensing Exam. The problem began to unravel for
her in January. You see, she was being considered for

(40:06):
a promotion. Her problem began when people started to ask
questions about wait, what's your name again. She claimed she
had changed her last name due to marriage, but never
produced a marriage certificate. She produced a license number belonging
to a different registered nurse with the first name uh Oh.

(40:32):
Turns out that twenty nine year old Autumn Bardisa had
provided services to forty four hundred and eighty six patients
impersonating a licensed nurse. Well, oops, she got terminated, needless

(41:03):
to say, when she couldn't produce the documents to verify
or I mean she did too good a job, I
guess now. I mean, think about it. This is a
weird story, right, because on one hand, this is incredibly dangerous.
On the other hand, she did her job well enough

(41:26):
to deserve a promotion. There's no way the advent Health
Palm Coast Parkway Center could not fire her and refer

(41:50):
her they at this point, they need to be They
need to thank God Almighty that something didn't go wrong
and they lost their whole practice. That she was, in
fact apparently a good nurse, self taught or not. I
don't know, but oh my goodness, there are a lot

(42:14):
of things that I can think of someone in kind
of you know, It's like I remember working at a j. C.
Pennies when I was in high school, and I was
supposed to work in the sporting goods department back in
the day that they had a sporting goods department at

(42:34):
a J C. Pennies. But now and then the guy
in the camera department would phone in sick and they'd
tell me go cover for cameras, And I'm like, I mean,
I know how to take a picture. But I don't
know the first thing about a camera, and so I'm
just this punk kid. So what can you tell me

(42:54):
about that Nika on over there? Well, that's sir, you've
got your eye on a mighty fine camera. The the
aperture and the f stop capabilities are second to none.
The guy looks at me like, you have no idea
what you're talking about? Do you No, sir? I don't. Yeah,

(43:16):
I just bust out laughing. Now I'm covering for the guy.
I just had the I had fun with it, but
it was like, yeah, I don't know what to do.
This lady's a nurse. Oh, it only happens to Florida
man or in this case, Florida whoa man? Come back

(43:36):
with the Big Stories in the press Box next thirty

(44:00):
six minutes after the hour. What's the beef in a
half hour. So we'll open up the phone lines in
about twenty minutes and give you a chance to call in,
get in line, get it off your chest, whatever it
may be. We've got you know, we've got good news.
I will point you to the first hour Big Stories
in the Press Mots Press Box segment. Another treatment dealing

(44:22):
with the very deadly brain cancer known as glioblastoma. An
investigational cell therapy that is being ramped up, and we've
talked about one treatment that eliminated the tumor. The guy

(44:45):
did not have surgery, he had radiation, chemo, and a
drug that destroyed the tumor and has since had no
recurrence of it. This is story of a sixty five
year old woman from New Jersey treated in Phoenix, and
the trial deals with something something called dendritic cells, which

(45:11):
are taken from the actual tumor. They do the surgery,
they take the cells from the tumor, and then they
basically teach the body's immune system how to fight it.
And I don't know how you do that, but it worked,
and they're doing a second stage trial and we gave

(45:34):
you the name of the group doing it. It is
Diaconos Oncology and they're going to be doing at twenty
sites around the country. So if that's something that is
on your radar for whatever reasons in your family, listen
to the first hour and the big stories in the

(45:56):
press box for a little more information. We talked as
well about from added stevia extract killing pancreatic cancer cells
in lab tests, and that is pancreatic cancer is a
just a booger. It just is. It is so hard
to deal with, and so this is another remarkable potential breakthrough.

(46:23):
So those are those were the big stories, but we
added something else that I want to just take a
minute to talk about here. There appears to be a
motive showing up in why the twenty eight year old
member the US Army shot his colleagues in one his

(46:46):
coworkers in one specific part of Fort Stewart. Reports are
coming out now. These are reports from NBC News from
his coworkers, some themselves as his friend or friends, and
say that he was endlessly tormented by bullying because he stuttered.

(47:14):
He had a fairly profound stutter apparently, and then the
anxiety of the bullying made it worse. Apparently. His friends
said that that coworkers would at times talk to him
as if they were stuttering. And I can't I can't
tell you how cruel that is. I will only tell

(47:41):
you that this is not an excuse for what he did,
the action he took. It is absolutely an explanation. And
I just want to just ask you, if you're the
guy getting mocked every single day for seven years. And
my understanding and reading the report is it began the

(48:04):
day he entered the military. What are you supposed to do?
Do you go to your superior? Could you imagine what
comes of that? Of ratting out your coworkers? Oh he can't.

(48:24):
I mean, I'm just and I'm he can't take it.
What are you supposed to do? I'm not excusing his conduct,
I'm explaining it. People suck. I just anyway, there you go.

(48:52):
Forty one minutes after the hour, we come back. We're
going to lighten the mood a little bit thanks to
the Battel.

Speaker 4 (48:56):
And B.

Speaker 1 (49:11):
Courtesy of the Babylon B remember satire. Top ten quotes
from Kamala's new book one hundred and seven Days. Now
that's a real book where she describes her campaign for
president that lasted one and seven days. Book's not going

(49:35):
to be released till next month, but here are some
of the most fascinating quotes. Again Curtsy of the Babylon B.
Number one. A prologue is like an introduction. So here's
my introduction. And this is my book, a book written
by me. I am me the writer of the book.

(49:59):
Quote number two, my publisher said this book should be
one hundred thousand words, which is very very very very
very very very many words. Quote number three. This is
a chapter, and in this chapter there will be several pages.

(50:22):
Each page contains many words, and the words are the
meaning of the chapter. Quote number four. I was accused
of covering up Joe Biden's severe dementia. This is false.
During his entire term, he always seemed just as sharp
and intelligent as I was. Quote number five. Of all

(50:47):
the great political minds throughout history, the genius whose philosophy
I admire most has to be Megan D. Stallion. Number six.

(51:08):
A Moscow mule is three parts ginger beer, one part
lime juice, and the rest is vodka. If you don't
taste the vodka, you're doing it wrong. Number seven. That
was the day that I found out I've been pronouncing
my first name wrong this whole time. Number eight. It
is my fervent hope and wish that my story can

(51:30):
prove an inspiration for young black girls across this country
whose dream it is to attain wealth, fame, and status
through no achievement of their own. It can be done girls.
Number nine am I right? And number ten on quotes

(51:52):
from the book one hundred and seven Days, available September
twenty third. So we beat on boats against the current
and born back ceaselessly into the past. I wrote this
forty six minutes past the hour courtesy of the.

Speaker 5 (52:13):
Babylon b.

Speaker 8 (52:15):
We suggest you use the restroom before you listen or
invested a thirty foot catheter.

Speaker 1 (52:22):
Yes, I use it all the time.

Speaker 8 (52:24):
This is the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (52:47):
Fifty one minutes past the hour. We've got a couple
of calls from people getting some emails lack of leadership,
fort Stewart said Jim. Calls ranged from supervisors negligent to
the young man should have been discharged because of his

(53:08):
speech impediment. I disagree with that, and I don't believe
that's accurate. I believe there are certain positions within the
military that could not be held by someone with that
kind of speech impediment. But I'm quite certain that there
are many positions that can be held, and in fact
obviously were being held, perhaps not in battle, perhaps not

(53:34):
in frontline combat. But be that as it may, it's
just revelatory of the cruelty that people can engage in.

(53:54):
I just it's hard to get my mind around that
level of cruelty. You know, there are people that I
might inwardly think, and certainly not someone that stutters, but
there might be people that make lifestyle choices that I
think are just horrid. I would never bully a person

(54:14):
like that, whether I agree or just that's just to me,
that is just, that is beneath contempt. Anyway. You bully
democrats all the time. I am. I bully the philosophies

(54:41):
of democrats. When democrats come sit in my studio or
when I encounter them, we have usually very good dialogue
because I'm polite. I don't have to agree with someone
to be polite and respectful. Okay, But anyway, Fort Bliss,

(55:04):
that's where my father in law served years ago during
the Korean War. Authorities of it have arrested an active
duty soldier, Taylor Adam Lee. He has been arrested, and
if I'm not mistaken, charge with espionage. He was handing

(55:25):
over stuff he shouldn't have been able to access. He had,
I mean, he had top secret, sensitive compartmented information security clearance.
He was handing over intel to Russia, going so far
as to suggest that he was looking forward to working
with Russia directly he thought he was dealing with a

(55:48):
Russian agent when he was dealing with someone who wasn't
a Russian agent. Multiple times, man selling out your country
twenty two years of age. How does someone become a commie? Well,

(56:16):
we know the answer to that, right, I would immediately
point to if he's twenty two, he either just got
out of college or has I mean, he's already got
a top security clearance. Chance has always been in the
military a little bit. Probably went right out of high school,
which tells you a lot about high school and what's

(56:39):
going on in education. I don't know, I mean, I
will be fascinated to learn this guy's background, how he
grew up, who his parents were, What school did he attend?
Did he attend some private academy? Did he go to
a public school? What public school? What school district? Where's
he from? I want to know these things. The anatomy

(57:01):
of a trader, My goodness, gracious, espionage and export violations?
All right, it's time for what's the beef? We have
four lines, just as many as Rush had eight five

(57:23):
zero two zero five WFLA eight five zero two zero
five ninety three fifty two. You know the rules, no profanity,
don't make it personal, and let me just ask. Don't
monologue and get off track. Beefs not jokes, not I

(57:47):
want to say something and then get to a beef. No,
this is what's the beef Friday? Eight five zero two
zero five w FLA. Your calls are next. All right,

(58:13):
we got a full bank of callers, which means let's
go what's the beef Friday? If you are new to
the Morning Show with Preston Scott, this is the segment
where we let you get it off your chest. Whatever
it is, it's fair game. Just abide by the rules,
no profanity, don't make it personal, and we are off
and running. The phone number when you hear us wrap

(58:34):
up a call, call in just in advance of that
moment you think is coming, because we are operating on
a delay and the chances are that line is now open.
You can call eight five zero two zero five WFLA
eight five zero two zero five ninety three fifty two.
Just remember you can be on the air, and you
can also just sit back, listen and live vicariously through

(58:57):
the beefs of others. Bruce, thanks for calling in. What's
the Beef?

Speaker 6 (59:00):
Well?

Speaker 9 (59:01):
First, I'd like to say thank you President for what
you do.

Speaker 4 (59:04):
My bees is all the.

Speaker 9 (59:06):
Trees in this acts against this country, and you just
touched on one of them.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
Right.

Speaker 9 (59:11):
This goes from the bottom all the way to the top,
right an enlisted person in the military, all the way
to a former president. The reason why we're seeing this
is the last time we put someone to death right
on national TV for treason. I guess this country, within
the fifties we have to get back to that.

Speaker 1 (59:33):
I don't disagree with the notion that we need to
remember what that penalty used to be and consider it again.
I don't know where I stand on that, but I
do think that there has to be harsh, severe punishment
for treason and espionage. There's no doubt in my mind.
But I hope you feel better at least getting it said.

Speaker 9 (59:57):
I do.

Speaker 1 (59:57):
Thank you, Bruce. I appreciate it, and I appreciate the
kind word. It's eight five zero two zero five to
b fla Ron, thank you for calling in. What's the beef?

Speaker 6 (01:00:06):
Good morning President. Just like Bruce said, thank you so
much for what you do. And I'm sick of hearing
about the hummas and the hostage and the war there,
the Hamas and the hostage do something. How many lines
did they draw?

Speaker 5 (01:00:19):
Give them a date?

Speaker 6 (01:00:20):
President said something about bomb in someplace within a certain time.
It happened.

Speaker 5 (01:00:25):
That ended that.

Speaker 6 (01:00:26):
Let's let's move on. Let's let's fix that war thing
over there in these hostages chaus. What are they doing
it for ratings or something? I don't know, but I
just wish they would move on about it, get something done.

Speaker 1 (01:00:38):
Well very much, you're you're welcome, Ron, thank you for
calling in. I don't know if if you've all seen
the news Israel is saying we're going to occupy the Gaza.
We're gonna go in, we're gonna we're gonna take it over,
and then we're gonna relinquish it to the Gazans to
elect a real government, not hamas. Hamas will not be allowed.
It's just that simple. We want a government in there

(01:01:01):
that will allow us to exist, that agrees that we
should exist, and then we're happy to hand it over.
We'll see how that all works out. Eight five zero
two zero five to b F. L A. Laddie, thanks
for calling in this morning. I appreciate you doing so.

Speaker 10 (01:01:16):
Good morning, Preston, Good morning, enjoy listening to you, So
it's not a complaint. Actually, it's at a boy is
the new police station. You can actually see something going on.
It's not just a big, flat, cleared piece of land anymore.

(01:01:38):
It looks like there's actually gonna be a building there
pretty soon. Well not pretty soon, but anyway, I'm glad
that they're finally showing some some interest in that piece
of land.

Speaker 1 (01:01:49):
You're hugging the the the lane of complaint, and it's
good enough. It really is a complaint. I'm going to
help you form this into a complaint. Thank goodness. They're
finally building something that's true. Yeah, and I agree with you, Laddie.
Thanks so much for calling in. I appreciate it. It

(01:02:12):
is this massive plot of ground. They leveled a former
shopping mall sort of kind of, and they're building the
new police headquarters there as well as other things, and
finally something's getting done. We've got let's see here, John,
you're gonna be up next. It's ten past the hour.

(01:02:34):
We've got to take a quick check of weather and traffic.
We've got another caller standing vibe. What about you. Two
lines are open. Come on, ruminators, don't let me down.
Eight five zero two zero five WFLA. It's what's to
be Friday line's ringing. Hang in there. We will get

(01:03:02):
to you. Jose's got to process and each and each
and every collar and so it just takes a moment,
but it is what's to be Friday. Here. We've been
doing this for about twenty three years, a little just
under the full time of doing the radio program known
as Common Sense Amplified. And John, you've been patient. Good morning, welcome,

(01:03:24):
what's the beef?

Speaker 11 (01:03:25):
Long the morning pressing, and I'll get on with the
other colors, and thank you again.

Speaker 5 (01:03:30):
For what you do.

Speaker 1 (01:03:31):
I appreciate it.

Speaker 11 (01:03:32):
I still think you're the rustling involve the morning time.

Speaker 1 (01:03:35):
Thank you so much. That is I appreciate it.

Speaker 11 (01:03:40):
I'm sincere. I know I'm normally full of junk, but
I'm sincere about that. My belief this morning is this Sydney,
this Sydney Swedon thing just won't die, and I just
I don't get it. But the thing that concerns me
is I try I try to support the underdog. Whenever

(01:04:01):
the Clothing Line was I think attacked and they shouldn't
have been, I try to support them, and I go
online look for twenty minutes. I wanted to get my
wife something nice and when we go to buffet and
Sunday afternoons, she's got something nice to wear. I looked
for twenty minutes. They didn't have the first pair of overalls.

(01:04:21):
You don't have to mistake. It happened to Bananica, and
you got to have some buttons on the side to
release the mate ring. But anyway, y'all have a good weekend.
And Oswald was along sh.

Speaker 1 (01:04:30):
Every bye, thank you very much. He wasn't. John, appreciate
your call. Let's go to hr HR good morning and welcome.
What's the beef?

Speaker 3 (01:04:39):
Hey Preston, good morning?

Speaker 9 (01:04:40):
Real quick.

Speaker 3 (01:04:41):
The first one is iHeartRadio A couple of days ago
played this commercial over and over again for this Las
Vegas thing featuring this some pastry person and a girl
sings bad Christmas songs, and I was kinded. At the
seventh time. I couldn't take it anymore. I had to
change stations.

Speaker 1 (01:04:58):
Tell me something hold on, hold on for for research purposes.
Was it a live stream of a radio station or
was it a podcast? It was iHeart I understand that,
but was.

Speaker 3 (01:05:11):
It live stream live stream?

Speaker 1 (01:05:13):
So you were listening to an actual radio station, and
did that commercial air one after another after another or
was it airing in each break?

Speaker 3 (01:05:22):
I would listen w f L A Tallahassee on my
I Heeartka earlier this week.

Speaker 1 (01:05:27):
Got you okay.

Speaker 3 (01:05:30):
The second thing, real quick, is all this talk about
all these this scandal and everything about Obama and Brenner
and all these other people, Hillary and all these scandals.
You know what, Trump didn't put Hillary in jail the
first time. You know what, I'd really I just think
it's a bunch of political stocks.

Speaker 12 (01:05:52):
Again.

Speaker 3 (01:05:53):
I don't really feel that the government's going to actually
prosecute anybody and bring anybody to trial. And God bless
them if they do, and I'll start believing more in
my government and trusting them a little more if they do.

Speaker 1 (01:06:04):
I don't do.

Speaker 3 (01:06:05):
I'm set up with this letting people offer doing things
like this.

Speaker 1 (01:06:08):
I completely agree. Hr. Thanks very much for calling in
appreciate it. Amy, you are up. What's the beef?

Speaker 12 (01:06:16):
My beef is that video of the FSU employee. She
is not being charge with a hate crime when it
was pretty obvious it was a hate crime.

Speaker 1 (01:06:23):
Yeah, I don't get it. I don't get it. It
sure seemed that way too, and I'm yeah, I'm wondering
if there's just some consideration of the family going on here.
But the student former student and her parents are clearly

(01:06:45):
they clearly have issues, obviously, but that you should hold
them accountable or else I'll keep doing it. I don't
disagree with you there, Amy, Thank you appreciate the phone
call talking about the very direct anti Semitic assault. It
was it was a battery. It wasn't a vicious assault.

(01:07:05):
But it doesn't matter. I'm not talking about it simply
because the grandparent of the perpetrator is a friend and
I just don't care to muddy his good name by
talking about it very much. But I and I hope

(01:07:26):
you understand it. If you don't, I got you can
be mad at me for it, that's okay. But I
appreciate the call, Amy, I appreciate very much. Bill. You
are next, then, Wesley. We have lines for two more
callers available, and I will get to all four callers
in the next segment. Eight five zero two zero five
w f l A. It is, what's the beef. Let's

(01:07:57):
do this. We've got four collars standing by, might be
able to fit in a fifth, but let's get busy, Bill,
and then Wesley, Mike, and then Ken. Bill. Thanks for
hanging in there with me. What's the beef?

Speaker 7 (01:08:12):
Good morning, guys. First saying just a little one, but
it's a big one. The drivers in Tallahassee on Capitol Circle.
Man almost had two crashes yesterday and just people zipping through.
I believe it anyway. The cutzoo, the killer vine the

(01:08:37):
tallahas He tried the goats and sheep. The only thing
bad about that is they will eat the vine itself.
But they go to the bathroom after they eat it
all and leave their excrement there, which has the seeds
in it and fertilizer from them using the bathroom number two,

(01:09:02):
and it grows back even faster. So it looks good
for a little while after they eat it, right, but
they leave behind. What they leave behind ends up being
a lot worse because they fertilized the ground with their
their poop and they had succeeded in it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:19):
That makes some sense to me. I guess the only
plus would be you would have a shot at least
of spraying before it grows too big.

Speaker 13 (01:09:29):
That's true.

Speaker 7 (01:09:30):
They tried it over by the Memorial Hospital okay, and
it worked, but they soon figured out that they were
creating another problem.

Speaker 12 (01:09:40):
You know.

Speaker 7 (01:09:41):
Yeah, anyway, it's a good idea, it just creates it worse.
And that stuff is a killer?

Speaker 13 (01:09:49):
Is killer?

Speaker 1 (01:09:49):
Yeah? It is, it absolutely is, Bill, Thank you very much.
By the way, did you know that the sheep that
were used at one point got stolen? Someone stole the
sheep that were used years ago? I just story was
sent to me, Wesley, you're up. What's the beef?

Speaker 5 (01:10:03):
Hey, Preston. My beef is with the Cincinnati, Ohio riots.

Speaker 1 (01:10:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:10:08):
When I first thought the reports, I was told that
these innocent people were just walking around and they were
attacked by mob. I saw the unedited video of it,
and I saw that these are actually foreign nationals, Russians,
instigating it. And I want to know, like, we've had
Americans locked up in Russia for just sneezing, and what

(01:10:31):
world can we go to Russia and run them up
and attack the citizens and call the riot and not
be expected to go to prison or jail and they
let the people just go. I don't know why customs
allowed them to lead a country, but that's my beef.

Speaker 1 (01:10:46):
I got you now. I had not heard the Russian angle. Wesley,
thank you very much for calling. I had heard that
there was some reports of inappropriate words being used racial effort.
That's epithets being used. That said, I'll simply say that

(01:11:06):
it's kind of the old adage. You can't allow what
someone says to be a source of a beatdown like that.
It just I'm sorry, that's just I think you raise
a great point, and I think there's validity to the

(01:11:26):
investigation of that, and perhaps that will happen, and maybe
that's why they left the country so quickly. I just
know that, you know, whatever was said or wasn't said,
what took place was criminal. The violence in response. I mean,

(01:11:48):
you can't allow people to beat other people because of
what somebody says. You just you can't allow that. But Mike,
thanks very much for calling in. Now, if those people
were instigation and fight and started to throw in punches,
absolutely got to arrest them. Mike. Here up. What's the beef?

Speaker 12 (01:12:07):
Good morning, Preston. But I have a beef with the
ra Gray Building where the Department of State is. I
had occasion to deliver some paperwork over there last week,
and it's a public building. It's open to the public.
There's a museum in the basement, but you have to

(01:12:27):
have five dollars in cash to park. The only place
to park is in the parking garage, and you have
to have five dollars in cash to get in there.
And this is a public building where people need to
come and go, you know, to do bureaucratic paperwork, right.

Speaker 1 (01:12:47):
That seems weird, know.

Speaker 12 (01:12:48):
And they've got this gate set up and it's obviously
a temporary thing run by private company. I want to
know who's getting my five bucks.

Speaker 1 (01:13:00):
Great question. I'm sure someone's going to write in with
an answer. Thank you very much, Mike. I appreciate it
very much. And uh yeah, that that kind of stuff
is just that bothers me. We're paying taxes. Let us park. Okay,
now it shouldn't be parking for the day, you know,
but whatever, Ken, you are the final caller. Good morning, sir, welcome.

(01:13:20):
What's the beef?

Speaker 6 (01:13:23):
Uh?

Speaker 13 (01:13:23):
Just language makes me crazy.

Speaker 9 (01:13:29):
I got selling Jose.

Speaker 4 (01:13:32):
De fault.

Speaker 13 (01:13:33):
Weapon. I mean, a weapon is never going to be,
you know, a friend of yours. And the other one
is I hate crime. Nobody's gonna do anything to you
because they love you.

Speaker 4 (01:13:45):
It just makes no sense to me.

Speaker 1 (01:13:46):
I've never understood it.

Speaker 4 (01:13:48):
Yeah, any clime against you is not because they like
you or love you. They don't like you, right, yeah,
and they're not coming up with a gun going hey man,
I like shirt been then shoots.

Speaker 1 (01:14:01):
You fair enough? Ken, Thanks very much, brother, I've never
understood And in fact, when the when the term first
became popularized, I questioned, why what is the need if
you assaulted somebody? It's not it's not it's an assault.
We have laws charge him, but they hated him. Ken's right,

(01:14:26):
you don't. You don't beat up people you like. Thanks
for the calls, friends, twenty seven past, more to come
The Best and Worst of the week on the Morning
Show with Preston Scott. Welcome to the Morning Show with

(01:14:49):
Preston Scott. Time for the best and worst. And because
we now have a new feature sort of twice a month,

(01:15:16):
we will be doing the best and worst. And it
could be over a period of a couple of weeks
that we grab our best and worst, so we could
it could linger a little bit, but'd say your best
and worst.

Speaker 2 (01:15:26):
All right, So my best and this is going to
be a shocker to everybody, but I got my first
hunting rifle recently, and I am planning my first hunting,
my real hunting trip. Yeah yeah, going to the mountains
in Virginia and uh going to hunt for deer, Okay,
just deer to process and bring home meet yep, oh yeah, yep,
to eat.

Speaker 1 (01:15:45):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (01:15:46):
Absolutely, it would be my first time.

Speaker 1 (01:15:48):
Now, are you the type that will put the head
up on a on a mount and all that.

Speaker 2 (01:15:52):
Thing, Well, because my buddy he does that.

Speaker 1 (01:15:55):
So yeah, he's gonna do that. He's a taxidermist.

Speaker 2 (01:15:58):
Well he just does his own your heads if you okay,
if he does like the skull cap only with the horns,
he takes it to a taxidermist. Okay, so you're gonna
you're gonna do it. I got a hunting god.

Speaker 1 (01:16:09):
You gotta got a license up there. You're gonna get that.

Speaker 2 (01:16:11):
And there's certain things that that are allowed for like
apprenticeship hunting, okay, like sixteen bucks. So yeah, that's what
we're doing.

Speaker 1 (01:16:19):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:16:20):
And the worst, uh, the worst is I gotta wait
till January to do that.

Speaker 1 (01:16:26):
Nice. Nice. My worst of the week sort of kind
of dovetails with it. A zoo in Denmark, the Alborg
Zoo has this is the worst story. They're asking patrons
for their slightly used pets for the for the animal

(01:16:55):
exhibit to use his food. They're trying to mimic the
natural food chain of animals. How's there for the sake
of the animal welfare professional integrity and offers assurances the
pets will be gently euthanized by trained staff and so.
On a Facebook post, it says, if you have a
healthy animal that needs to be given away for various reasons,

(01:17:17):
feel free to donate it to us. They want people's
pets so that they can feed them to the lions
and tigers and whatever. In the story from from Not
the Bee, yes, mom and dad, if you have a
little guinea pig that needs to make an unscheduled journey

(01:17:39):
to guinea pig Heaven, you can have the animal go
out in the most epic fashion imaginable, being eaten by
a lion. The zoo points to guinea pigs, rabbits, chickens
as possible donations. After being euthanized, the animals will be
used as fodder. The zoo said that way nothing goes
to way, et cetera. But they say a pet in

(01:18:09):
perfectly good health, all right, my best of the week
was a no brainer, far and away by miles. The
best of the week for me. I helped my little
granddaughter for the first time. She's had a rough start,

(01:18:34):
spent her entire first two months in a NICU. Finally
got to come home. There's a little more to come.
She's gonna be fine. But I got to hold this
precious little one. And not even close best of the week,

(01:18:55):
best of the week, I mean best of the week, right,
it's the best of the week.

Speaker 4 (01:19:13):
Don't kill them.

Speaker 1 (01:19:15):
Holding my granddaughter was so far and away the best
of the week. It could just spill over into the
good News segment now I could. Now, I don't we
love our grandchildren? Right? I mean, there's just I'm blessed.

(01:19:41):
I have five and I just adore them. I just
adore them. And three of them are little girls. To that,
I go, good luck. No, I uh yeah yeah. And

(01:20:11):
I am I am papa. That's what I am. Not
pa wpa w No paw paw. Someone else can be
a paw paw. I'm a papa. The Good News segment.
Have you ever heard of Synchron's stint Road, No, you haven't.

(01:20:39):
Synchron is a brain computer interface developer. Let me say
that again. Synchron is a brain computer interface developer, and
they have demonstrated I have watched it a minimally invasive

(01:21:04):
device that can help connect a patient with an iPad,
allowing the patient to control the device entirely by thought
using Apple's built in accessibility features. The video I saw

(01:21:25):
as an als patient named Mark. He volunteered because he said,
I don't know how much time I have left, so
while I'm able, I wanted to participate and help help
develop the technology, help make it possible for others down
the road. It's incredible. He is able to move the

(01:21:51):
mouse by thinking. He thinks I need to I want
to click that button, and it moves there and it
clicks it. That's nuts. It allows him to send texts

(01:22:17):
and emails. It allows him to independently look at websites,
watch the news. He said, it is giving me a
part of my life back and independence. Certainly not all
of it. But I gotta tell you now, see, there

(01:22:40):
are people that will think of that technology and go NA.
That's just unnatural, and I wouldn't want to be part
of it. Don't be so sure that you wouldn't want
to be part of it if you were suffering the
same fate. All I'm going to say is to me,
it's good news, pretty cool, good news too. And when

(01:23:06):
we come back, we'll have a dad joke. Some headlines
from the b by the Way next week, sal Newso
from Consumers Defense, Justin Haskins and more already on the
books for next week. And I think next week is
Mark Levin as well. Here on the Live by the Way,
