what twenty two into the shutdown, and you know, there's
been a lot of back and forth on shild President
Trump get involved.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Should the Republicans just you know, work to you know, I.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Guess negotiate the Obamacare issues that the Democrats are having,
which is, by the way, their fault. I mean, the
reason why we're in this mess, you know, in terms
of the stupid subsidies is because the Obamacare bill was
a ridiculous one.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
And you know it's interesting.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Because we're the people are hurting not getting paychecks. We're
gonna be coming into the holiday student these TSA workers
need to get paid, and the Democrats are thinking that
the Republicans are gonna cave.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
The Republicans are thinking the Democrats are gonna cave.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
And you know, I'm actually against us negotiating Obamacare subsidies
during this shutdown. I think that sets a bad precedence.
I'm I'm a fan of single item bills. If we
(02:01):
need to open up the government, it's only twenty four pages.
I like simple bills. It's something that everybody has agreed upon,
its bipartisan. It simplifies things. This is how we usually
avoid a lot of shutdowns.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
No, I know, it seems like we get to shut
down all the time.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
But if it's a bipartisant bill that everybody seems to
agree on, including the Democrats, and it's something that they've
voted on, it starts to simplify the process of continuing resolutions.
But Schumer and Jeffries and all that are suggesting that
now they hold the line that the longer this goes
it helps us. I don't know who US is if
(02:40):
not the Democrats, and it it starts to add other
elements to it. So what the Democrats want to do
is take this time while they can hold up a
government that they are the minority in temporarily, they get
to hold up the government and say, you know what,
let's use this as a negotiating ploy. I want us
(03:03):
talk about the big beautiful bill. I want us to
talk about Obamacare subsidies. I want to talk talk about,
you know, funding for illegal immigrants or whatever. Well, I
think that sets a bad presence. The continuing Resolution funding
for the government is just that. And once we start to,
(03:24):
you know, give in to this extortion of okay, they're
gonna hold America by the cohones unless you know, whatever
they want starts to get negotiated in, that could be dangerous.
The whole reason why we have a continuing Resolution and
we do is because it's supposed to be separate from
(03:45):
all the other drama that we have throughout the year
and the legislative sessions, because the government funding needs to
be separate from that.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
But what Chuck Schumer wants to do is use this.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
As an opportunity not to mention an opportunity for him
to be able to you know, get I don't know
a political credit you know with you know, with with
those that are you know, leaning more towards the progressives
because he's got an election coming up. And so as
much as I want the government to reopen and I
(04:21):
don't want Americans screwed over this, I don't think it's
very realistic and practical to start negotiating for things that
should not belong in this particular vote. And if the
Republicans say, look, we're all voting open the government. We're
just waiting for the Democrats to vote yes. I mean,
(04:41):
we're offering another vote.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Come on.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
And the Democrats are like, yeah, but we want to
talk about this, and we want to seek Trump and
we want to talk about you could do all of
that after the government's opened up. I mean, let's get
back to business. But they think they're not going to
have the president's here. They think the only time they
have the president's ear is now. You know, So should
(05:04):
Trump get involved? Some GOP think that Trump needs to
get involved with this. I mean, you know it's I
I remember I told you he kind of needed to
back off of the rhetoric of well, then you know
we're gonna start cutting Democrats.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Uh, you know, LED agencies and things like that.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
You don't want this to be retaliatory, you know, you
don't want to have that, look, but I would rather
be worded as is, Look, you know, the money's running out,
so we need to take money from one department to
fund another. And since our TSA and our military are
pretty damn important right now, we need to take funding
(05:41):
from I don't know whatever USAID or whatever they're doing. Uh,
because this is taking precedence. It just that the shutdown
shouldn't be going on this long. And I think once
Republicans say, you know what, yes, we'll go ahead and
start negotiating Obamacare.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I mean, back go on for months.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
To try to fix the ACA, which was a really
crappy bill with the exception of the pre existing condition
clause and the covering physicals, the rest of it. I mean,
it destroyed our healthcare system and now we're paying insurance
companies for ridiculously high priced insurance plans.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Tell me why that was a good idea.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
And this was under Obama, Pelosi and Sibilius Catholic. Sibilius
this wasn't even a Republican thing.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
So you know, eventually.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
The Democrats will have to sign the CR because Republicans
have I think, sent the message. I know the Democrats
are like, well, the Republicans won't negotiate, they won't whatever.
This is all all this is to sign a CR
that's twenty four pages and all the Republicans signed it,
and it is the same CR the Democrats have signed before.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
So the onus is really to be on the.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Democrats when their constituents are like, look, we got things
giving travel coming up.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Come on, let's just open.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Up the government and then you could try to negotiate
Obamacare and all the big beautiful bill stuff you're upset
about later because the Republicans are like, we're not keeping
the government closed.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
We signed it. Here's all our votes, we all signed it.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Here.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Here, here it is.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
I mean we I guess they're missing five Democrats. They
just need five Democrats to get their act together. So
as much as I don't want this to be a standoff,
I think the Republicans have done all they can do,
and then any sort of negotiating for different legislation is
going to have to be addressed in different sessions in
a different forum one eight to seven seven Doctlli don't
(07:48):
the way.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Right, we are back on the Doctor Dolli Show.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Thank you offer to men one eight seven seven Doctor
Dolli one eight seven seven Doc d a l I.
So a woman fell and tripped in a Target parking
lot and has been awarded eleven million dollars. Now, before
somebody goes, oh man, what a faker, No, I think
(10:45):
her case is valid. So this is being reported by
the Independent. And this happened in Florida. She actually fractured
several bones. Was initially offered a million dollars her attorneys,
my guests advisor, Now we could get a little bit
(11:06):
more than two hundred fifty thousand dollars. She ends up
being awarded eleven point three million dollars by a jury.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
The forty four year old was.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Given eleven million, three hundred ninety one thousand, one hundred
and eighty three dollars and twenty eight cents and twenty
eight cents is important after taking a tumble at a
super target in winter Garden, which is an Orlando suburb.
This happened December twenty third, twenty nineteen, during the busy
holiday season. She was carrying her daughter through the winter
(11:36):
Garden Village shopping center, going in between cars and traffic
and puddles, and she passed a landscaping island and she
tripped over a seam where the asphalt met the concrete
gutter of the curb. This is a section of the
parking lot that had a notable and abrupt change in elevation.
(11:57):
Apparently it violated several building code. After stepping on the
uneven surface, her left ankle twisted and fractured. She starts
falling over, but she's trying to save her baby that
she's holding, which we moms have done. And when you
try not to fall and balance yourself and prevent the
(12:21):
baby from hurting themselves and getting hurt, you sometimes get
yourself in a pritzeled up position. This caused her, when
she did fall, to break the right to be a
fibula and lateral malluolis. The unidentified woman was represented by
Morgan and Morgan attorneys Matt Morgan, Fan Lee, and Perry Nova.
(12:42):
They're the ones that helped her turn down the two
undred fifty thousand dollars pre trial settlement offered and her
Orange County jury found target was ninety percent at fault
at fault and awarded.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
The woman the multimillion dollar payout.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Now, by the way, if that fall caused her to
sustain a bunch of the fractures, I would recommend that
she get her parathyroid checked, not thyroid will thyroid. Always
get your thyro check, but her parathyroid as well as
her vitamin D. I do always suspect some underlying osteoporosis.
(13:16):
When somebody sustains multiple fractures from a fall, the the
the uh, they wouldn't change jury award. You know, she
fell because of uneven surface. But a young mom suffering
that many fractions from a fall, I wonder if she
has an underlying condition that's leaking calcium from her bones.
So I would suggest she get checked for ultra osteoporosis,
(13:38):
vitamin D deficiency, and parathyroid issues.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Just an aside.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Now, the fall took place outside of a super target
during the holiday season.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Excuse me. The Independent asked for target to give a statement.
They didn't.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
But you hear these cases of trips and falls, or
like the McDonald's case where somebody burned themselves on the
coffee and won, you know, multimillions of dollars. I talked
to a lawyer who worked on the McDonald's case. The
reason why it was kind of a slam dunk for
the person to be able to assue McDonald's was the
(14:16):
coffee was so piping hot and McDonald's has standards and
apparently that particular McDonald's had been warned multiple times that
the coffee was too hot. Well, then they're sitting ducks
for a lawsuit if they hurt somebody. And so, you know,
when you are a franchisee, you know, or you are
(14:38):
a manager or an owner of one of these, you know,
if there are building codes or things that are not
abided by you know, I mean, a lawyer is going
to find them. You might be thinking, I don't know
what the building codes are?
Speaker 2 (14:51):
You kidding me.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
I'm just supposed to be figuring out the bottom line.
It's a busy Christmas season. I'm just making sure people
are getting trampled. Trust me, when an attorney and this
isn't you know, being negative about attorneys. This is what
they're paid to do, you know, where they are supposed
to glean through every possible piece of evidence and any
(15:12):
possible angle going. Okay, there's an issue with the asphalt.
Is their neglect? Was there malpractice? Was their you know,
lack of following city codes. It's kind of pretty standard
that they would look at that. So if that target
was not doing what they were supposed to do, somebody
(15:34):
could get suit. Now, slips and falls. I had some
listeners who said they had a slip and fall couldn't
find a lawyer who would take it.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Well, you know, it's interesting.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
You know, lawyers will take cases that they think are
they will review the case.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
I'm actually seeing some doctors doing this too.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
I remember I needed to refer a gas or neurology
case to a gastronurologist and they asked what the insurance was.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
What.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
You know, you're starting to get some people that are
are now being more picky about the cases they take.
But you know, if you fell and you know there
was you know, they they look at you know where
you fell, and you know what what you know, ac
sinuated circumstances were many slip and fall cases will not
(16:20):
give you an eleven million dollar payout. And one thing
I'm worried about is that there's a case like this,
somebody could be like, wait a second here. You know
stores are distracted around the you know, the holidays. If
I could become a millionaire just by breaking my ankle.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Yeah, I mean so, trust me. There are people that
set this stuff up. And what's also very frustrating.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
And that's fueling that type of bad behavior, and and
this case she's I I this was this is not
uh in relation to the plaintiff on this one.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
This this is a case which I think was a
slam dug in her favor.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
But you'll have patients that will do this doctors, or
do this to business own where they know they'll get
a settlement. And if they bring up a lawsuit rather
than the doctor or the or the company going through
years of expensive litigation, they're like, you know what, I'll
(17:15):
save money. Just paint the couple hundred thousand.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Thank god, I have never been sued. Nobody's ever asked
for a settlement.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Whatever I've you know, done a fairly you know, good
job making sure that every single thing, you know that
happened to my patient was the best possible outcome. But
I've seen this with doctors where somebody gets a scar
after a procedure and they're like, well, I want to
sue the doctor, and then it starts going down this
lawsuit and their malpractice insurance companies like, you know what,
they want thirty grand. Just give them the thirty grand.
(17:44):
You'll save yourself the money. And the doctor's like, but
I don't want this on my record. I didn't do
anything wrong.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
You know, she smoked, she didn't take care of the wound.
This wasn't me. And there's a pressure to settle.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
And you know, I mean I would, I would want
to fight it to the core, but that gets expensive.
It's like when you play poker. Oftentimes you could win
if you have the money behind.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
You to outlast the other players.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
And I've played hands that I probably shouldn't have but
because it looked like I had the extra money, and
I'm like, you know what, I got the bandwidth for this.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
I was able to get other people to fold.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
But then there's been some hands I've had where you
know what I went, you know in terms of like
charity chips and not my own money. But I'm already
two thousand and charity chips in and I'm like, you
know what, this person has more guts than I do
and more money.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
I just can't do it. I'm out. So huh uh.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
You if the teaching points to this is if you
are getting ready to go, you know, shop for the holidays,
which I am going to also talk about a little bit.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
You know, understand that there's a lot of hazards.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Look at what happened with Walmart with that security guard
getting killed and trampled on. Okay, you need to understand that,
you know there are hazards. You also have to understand
that many other companies are not doing their job. You
expect that these other companies are making sure that everything
is to the utmost safety. They might have the will,
they might have the good intentions, but some people are
(19:21):
getting metal shards in their foods.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Some people are getting peanuts when they have peanut allergy.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
You know you have poor roads. In fact, you know
I posted this picture. I was at a shopping center.
It's a very common shopping center, busy one in my
neck of the woods, where while you're driving down the
parking lot there's parking places. Somehow this parking lot had
(19:50):
painted parking places in the middle of the thoroughway, and
so I posted this saying, guys, be careful. Now, most
some people that go to the shopping center know it's
a mistake. But imagine somebody, you know, during a busy
holiday season going to I'm going to park here, and
you're just driving and all of a sudden there's somebody
(20:11):
that is just I mean, I'm serious.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
It's supposed to be like a a not.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
A street but whatever, you know, pathway for cars that
you're driving down the road and there's just all of
a sudden parking places and you see the road connect
to a stop sign, So how are you supposed to
get around these cars?
Speaker 2 (20:30):
It makes no sense. It's a mistake.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
So just be aware that not everybody is safety first.
Out there one eight seven seven out Dolly, don't go away.
Speaker 7 (21:00):
At Hotshot Secret, we share the science behind common diesel
problems in their solutions.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
For example, diesel fuel setane levels.
Speaker 7 (21:08):

forty two to forty five. Most diesel engines operate more
efficiently with the cetane rating of forty eight to fifty one.
Treatment of hot Shot Secret Diesel Extreme will raise your
seatane seven points, increase fuel economy, and improve cold starts.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
All Right, we are back. I'm going dot to d
alias show. Thank you all for tuning in.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
One eight seven seven Doctor Dolli one eight seven seven
D O C D A L I.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
So today is.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
October twenty second, and you know what I'm planning on
doing the rest of this week or by this weekend
Christmas shopping. I am going to start my Christmas and
Hanukah shopping this weekend. Now, some of you will be like, okay,
do to DOLLI. It's not even Halloween yet.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
What are you doing?
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Well, I'm trying not to get screwed. That's why every
year I tell you, guys, how I am seeing the
prices jump November December. So it's my job to remind
you too, because I always remind you too late. I go, guys,
you probably should have bought this in October or September.
(23:10):
So I want to have you guys think about maybe
start looking at some of the prices of things that
you think you might want to get your loved ones
for Halloween or not Halloween, for Christmas or Honkum.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
So it's interesting. There's a VR vest.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Apparently VR is really really big, you know, the Oculus,
the medquest and these are they called half the vests
where I thought you would feel the punches like when
you do the boxing games, but I think you just
kind of feel the sounds. And so apparently there's a
vest that the list price was two hundred ninety nine dollars.
That's gonna be one of the biggest items to shop for.
(23:48):
That's gonna be one of the biggest Remember when Nintendo
games and Billy Bass, Fishmouth or whatever I'm telling you
right now, one of the biggest things that is going
to be sought after for this Christmas season are these
VR vests. They're white and black. They're called WOOJR ves
w j e R And so the list price is
(24:10):
two ninety nine. Well, I look and Target has it
for four ninety nine, and I'm starting to see the
prices go up. The two ninety nine price was at
best Buy and was on other sites, and it was
sold out, sold out. Finally a week or two later,
I could get one of these vests because my son
(24:32):
likes to do VR. But now it's up to three
forty nine, so I'm like, you know what, I think
I'm gonna get it now. He already has something similar,
so we're actually gonna return it. And it really wasn't
exactly what you know, he thought it was going to
be and I thought it was going to be. And
so we're returning. And luckily the company has a good
return policy. Make sure you get you, make sure you
(24:53):
know your return policy. But you know, mark my words,
it's three It was two nine, then it's three forty nine.
Target is starting to sell them for four ninety nine,
Mark my words, come Christmas time, this sucker is going
to be more expensive.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
And I can't tell you how many times I have
gotten screwed.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Over waiting till the Black Friday sales and Christmas time
to buy something.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
And you know, in these shops defense, everybody's struggling these days.
I mean it's not easy.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
I understand that the economy is better than it's been
in a while, and gas prices are going down, but still,
I mean, you know, people don't have the money that
especially since now things are just ridiculously expensive. So if
you one of the reasons why they call it Black
Friday is because companies would be in the black as
opposed to being in the red. I'll talk about Black Friday,
(25:49):
will we get closer. There's a lot of different reasons
why it's called Black Friday. It's kind of interesting in
the Black Friday history, but this is the time of
year when companies get to finally be in the black
if they were in the red. And so I understand
they're going to try to have these doorbusters and then
get you in. And then now that you're a captive audience,
you're gonna be paying higher for things.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
And so I told you there was a bike. When
my son was younger.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
He really likes the Spider Man movies and Toby maguire
is the original Spider Man.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
So there was a bike. There was a Spider Man bike.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
So I'm at the store and I went the day
before Thanksgiving, so it was Wednesday before Thanksgiving week, and
I asked the guy, the gentleman to help you bring
it down.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
He's like, why are you buying this? And I'm like,
because I want to get it before Black Friday.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
The prices are going to go off. He's like, no,
trust me, come in at six am. I'll get the
bike down on Friday. I'll get the bike down for you.
I'll be here, just get it on Black Friday.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
So I left. I came back thirty six hours later
six am.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Not only was the bike gone because he probably wanted
it for himself, but all the bikes were twenty dollars more.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I was so living now.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
I'm not saying all stores do this, yes, but for
those of you going, well, I'm gonna buy my kid this,
I'm gonna buy them this, I'm gonna buy you know,
how do you this?
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Wifey?
Speaker 8 (27:07):
This?
Speaker 3 (27:08):
You know, you might want to take a look at
the prices now and you might want to consider shopping now.
I just just something that I would I would recommend.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
You know.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Another thing that I think also is is I really
really like gift cards?
Speaker 4 (27:22):
You know?
Speaker 3 (27:22):
I I you know, always kind of worry that it
doesn't look like you're you're putting a lot of love
into it.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
And there's a bunch of different ways you could show
love with a gift.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
Card, but the one of the best gifts people like
are the gift cards because they could use that at
a later time. You have your name on it, so
they remember you gave it to them, as opposed to
just another box or basket of something that they might
never use or eat. And so, you know, and I
struggle with this because, like, I want to get them
gift cards, but it looks like I want the easier,
(27:54):
lazy way out. You could get a real nice card,
you could decorate the cards, you could put a nice poem,
and you can explained, you know.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
Look, I wanted to.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Get you, you know, a gift that I know you
would use because I know you like this.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
This is this, you know, but and personalize it, you know.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
But I didn't know exactly what music I should get
you or what I should you know, you know, And
so I know this is what you this is what
you like, and you could personalize it and they're gonna
love it because it's it's like free money. And so
for those of you who want to not you know,
deal with all the lines at these stores, I mean Costco,
Sam's Club, you get gift cards. I think got a discount.
(28:31):
I think that is really really cool. And of the
coolest things with Costco and Sam's Club is the discounts.
So pick a day when they're not busy, you know,
and it's not Christmas time and holiday shopping, and then
go and get those. In fact, another thing you can
always do is decorate so like like you could put
it in a cute mug, you know, and then then
put some cellophane around it and decorate it and put
some candy in it. Or you could put it in
(28:54):
a you know, let's say somebody really isn't a gardening
you could get a little pot, you know, put little
paper in there so you know, dirty, dirty it up.
Put the little gift card for home depot or whatever
wherever they like to get the gardening stuff. Put a
couple of things of seeds.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
You just made a really really cool gift. Now a
lot of people like, well, gosh, Dahlia.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
You know, a gift card you got to spend fifty
or one hundred or two fifty, not exactly. A twenty
five dollars gift card can still go a long way
for you know, that could still be a huge gift.
Even a five dollars Starbucks gift card can can still
go a long way. And you if you're like God,
I gotta give them something twenty five dollars worth. But
I well, then then get a mug, a really cool mug,
(29:33):
put different types of coffee in it, have different flavorings,
things like that, and then as an extra little gift
in there, there's also a gift card. And I mean
you could turn it into something that that looks like
a very you know, a nice, nice gift that costs
some money and you actually saved. So I come up
with a lot of different gift ideas. You know, tell
(29:53):
me what your budget is and email me at doctor
Dalia dot com, d R d A l Iah dot
com and I'll try to do my best at giving
you guys ideas. But you know, maybe think about this
weekend now. I know there's a lot of Halloween sales
and candy and all that, but you know, also stores
will sometimes lower their pricing, you know, Tuesdays and Wednesdays,
the non shopping days, and be.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Prepared for searche pricing.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
What a lot of companies are doing are going to AI,
are going to automation where rather than somebody putting another
sticker price on something, where it's going to be digitalized,
where if they think the sturge is rising, the prices
will be able to go up digitally, and it's all
based on the code, and it's going to take a
(30:39):
while for companies to have the little digital marketings of
what things cost online. They got already do it automatically,
but in brick and mortar stores it's going to still
take a little while. And so you know, understand that
your search pricing is going to usually be higher on
the shopping days, the weekends, and you know, Fridays. It's funny,
people used to work on Fridays. Now many people don't
(31:01):
work on Fridays, so Fridays can be more expensive. You know,
one of my kids is looking for a used car
to trade his car in, and he was going on
the weekend, and I'm like, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
If you're gonna look for a car, go Mondays or Tuesdays.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
If you're gonna go use car shopping, car shopping Mondays
or Tuesdays. Because there's fewer people shopping, the salespeople want to,
you know, make their quota, and so they're going to
be a little bit more willing to make a sale.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Another thing, too, is.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
You got to look at certain times of the year
when they're getting new inventory and they get rid of
old inventory. And also when they have to make their
numbers or their quarterly numbers. So when you know that calendar,
you know that they're going to be a little bit
more incentivized to make the sale, then you might be
able to work down the price one eight seven seven
(31:52):
doc dollar.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
All right, we are back on that after Ali show.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Thank you all for tuning in one eight seven seven
Doctor DOLLI one eight seven seven d O C D
A L I. So one of my listeners asked, what
is the best way to approach the topic when your
child asks you if they think they're transgender, gay, et cetera,
and so you know your doctor.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Can give you advice.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
You know, I I always find that conversation, uh, just
already an amazing one in that your child feels comfortable
talking to you, so that that already means you're a
good parent. The fact that your child feels comfortable talking
to you about that is fantastic because there's a lot
of kids out there that feel like they taught to
(35:01):
their parents. So first of all, well done. You know,
there there was that recent study where there was data
from the University of Buckingham showing that the share of
college students identified as transgender has.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Now had in just the last couple of years, and.
Speaker 3 (35:17):
So transgenderism is not supposed to be as fluid as
you know. It depends if transgenderism is being equated to
body to gender dysmorphic disorder or if it's being you know,
I am going to be who I want to be,
and I'm going to be rejecting the girl boy genders
that society gives us. Uh And and so you know,
(35:39):
when you have a child, as I said that, that
comes up and says, look, I don't know if I
was supposed to be a boy. I don't know if
it's supposed to be a girl. That first and foremost,
that's actually very common. It's very common for kids to
wonder that.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
I told you.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
I was three and I pee on myself because I'm
standing up in the bathroom and I go mom, and
my mom was livid. She goes, you know, because now
there's pee all over the floor, pee all over my clothes,
and she's like, what the hell were you doing?
Speaker 2 (36:14):
And I go, I was pean.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
She goes, you're you're supposed to sit down. I go, no,
daddy doesn't sit down. And I'm gonna be like daddy.
She's like, no, daddy's a boy, you're a girl. I go,
I'm not gonna grow up and be like daddy.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
She's like no.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
Now, remember I hated my mom, so I found this
news very distressing. And then my sister marches up. My
sister was six years older than me. She marches up
and goes, and you're gonna get boobies, so you won't
run as fast, and you're gonna bleed every month.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Well, as a three year old, I was like, are
you kidding me? I don't want to be a girl.
Oh hell no.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
But but it's I bring that up now. I'm very
glad I did want to be a girl. I'm glad
I am a woman, end up marrying my husband, end
up being able to have kids. So I'm blessed with
what God gave me. But not that uncommon for kids
to go way a second here, why can't I be
like daddy? Why can't I be like Why can't I
(37:18):
do this? Why can't I be like my brother? Why
can't I be like my sister? You know, so, so
that that's not it's not uncommon. When it is starting
to get rare and concerning is when a child is like,
I'm in the wrong body. I'm not supposed to be
in this body. I'm supposed to be in that body.
Why do I have these I want to tear it off.
I want to a body dysmorphic disorder or a gender
(37:40):
dysphoria and gender dysmorphic disorder or dysphoria disorder can be
very very mentally challenging, and and and people really really struggle,
and you want to get them help, and you want
to get them support because you don't want them to
live a life.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
Thinking they're in the wrong body. Nunately, Uh, politics got
in the way and said.
Speaker 3 (38:02):
Well, we'll just fix you. We'll just make you a girl.
We'll just make you a boy. Snip snip, cut, cut,
chop chop. Infuse hormones. And now we have a bunch
of people transitioning because it's hard to do. And as
I've said, you know in earlier shows, when you transition,
it's not a one time deal, you know, like oh,
(38:23):
I'm just gonna get a nose job or I'm just
gonna get my boobies done. I mean, you have to
maintain the hormones aggressively expensively. It's a big commitment, not
a commitment a child can commit to and understand the
ramifications of which is why I don't recommend children transitioning.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
I think that's it's it's barbaric for them, and and.
Speaker 3 (38:47):
You know, to promise them that they'll look like, you know,
Beyonce as a girl or you know, I don't know,
John Cena. No, it's it's not it's not realistic. You know,
As an adult who wants to transition, all the power
to them. I support them, But for a child, no,
So if your child does come up saying I don't
(39:08):
think I'm supposed to be a boy, I don't think
I'm supposed to be a girl, you want to have
that conversation going, okay, well you know, why what is it?
You know, why don't you think you should be a girl. Well,
I don't like weary dresses and I don't like barbies.
I didn't either, I couldn't.
Speaker 2 (39:25):
I really didn't like playing with barbies, and I really
didn't like wearing dresses. So I'm with you on that.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
But girls don't have to play with barbies anymore. Girls
don't have to wear dresses. Oh really, Yeah, you can
wear whatever you want now, what if it's a boy
and the boy goes but I want to wear a dress.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
I like dresses. Okay, why do you like dresses? Is
it because you think they're pretty?
Speaker 3 (39:52):
Is it because you're getting hot and these jeans that
you're wearing and these pants are uncomfortable? Is it because
then you get to be in the girl's bathroom and
not be bullied in the boy's bathroom.
Speaker 2 (40:03):
So you want to find out what the root is.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
One of the reasons why transgenderism rose and a lot
of people started transitioning is you had a lot of
people who were having mental health issues and depression, and
somebody told them, well, maybe it's because you're living in
the wrong body, so make yourself a boy or make
yourself a girl. And the average person, it didn't. It
didn't help their mental health struggles. And it takes a
(40:29):
lot of work to try to be somebody you're not
and go through all those hormones and all that. It's
you know, but for some people it did help them
have an I have somebody in my family who underwent
transitioning and he is now she and she says she's
never been happier, and I'm really happy for her. Well,
(40:49):
but for some people it didn't solve their their their issues.
So when you do have a child that goes, I
think I'm the wrong gender, you don't find out what
exactly is it? And is it that you think your
life would be easier if you were the opposite gender?
Speaker 2 (41:04):
And why is that?
Speaker 3 (41:06):
Are you getting bullied? Are you getting beat up? Is
it that you're not You feel like you're failing, you know,
in gym and the other boys are marginalizing you, and
you want to be better at gym.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
You want to be I mean, they're they're you know,
there's a lot.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
Of things that go wrong in school and that people
get bullied about for et cetera. And you know, it's
not just about wearing dresses and playing with barbies or
being able to play with.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
Trucks and stuff.
Speaker 3 (41:30):
So it was interesting. One of my sons reminded me.
He said, Mom, when I was really, really little, I
remember a conversation I had for you, asking how do
I know if I'm gay or not? And I go, really,
I don't remember having this conversation, and he said, yeah,
I had asked you, how do I know if you're
you know, how do I know if I'm gay or
or I'm telling myself I'm not gay because you know
(41:53):
your friends, you know, make fun of you, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (41:55):
And he goes, how does somebody know if they're gay
or not? Now?
Speaker 3 (41:57):
And my child was really really young, so I was
working and I guessed pretty quickly.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
I came up with this.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
I was like, okay, well, you see they're Selena Gomez
and Justin Bieber. Who would you rather kiss Selena Gomez.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
Or Justin Bieber? Oh, Selena Gomez.
Speaker 3 (42:15):
I go, well, then then you know you might not
be gay. You you might be you know, heterosexual, but
you're too young for that. You can't tell if that's
who you are at this age. But he remembered that
that that's what it is. I'm not saying that that's
a litmus test or but you know, that was a
conversation looks like I must have had years ago with
(42:37):
nearly twenty years ago.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
With my son. When because it's a question, they'll ask,
I'm like, well, how do I know? How do I
know they have?
Speaker 3 (42:44):
They have and I'm glad they have questions, and I'm
glad they come to you. And so I was like, well,
who do you seem more attracted to. When I have
patients who tell me they have poor sex drive and
they don't want to sleep with their husbands and they
think something's medically wrong with that, I go, okay, Well,
if you saw Brad Pitt or you know, Denzel Washington
(43:05):
or Michael Jordan or you know, you.
Speaker 2 (43:07):
You know, do does that kind of get you know things?
Speaker 3 (43:11):
You know?
Speaker 2 (43:11):
Does that light a fire? Well? Yeah it does.
Speaker 3 (43:16):
So you know, do you think it's just your husband
or do you think it's a general you know, and
and and so you know, sometimes we do have to
kind of ask, you know, and and you know, you know,
consider another situation, and and but you know, it's it's
a much longer topic than I could do in a
short radio segment. But if you do struggle with how
(43:37):
to talk to your children about that, just talk to
your doctor. One eight seven seven dot Dolly.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
Don't go away. Can you believe?
Speaker 8 (43:54):

a time when America's neighborhoods need the protection of police

what twenty two into the shutdown, and you know, there's
been a lot of back and forth on shild President
Trump get involved.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Should the Republicans just you know, work to you know, I.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Guess negotiate the Obamacare issues that the Democrats are having,
which is, by the way, their fault. I mean, the
reason why we're in this mess, you know, in terms
of the stupid subsidies is because the Obamacare bill was
a ridiculous one.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
And you know it's interesting.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Because we're the people are hurting not getting paychecks. We're
gonna be coming into the holiday student these TSA workers
need to get paid, and the Democrats are thinking that
the Republicans are gonna cave.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
The Republicans are thinking the Democrats are gonna cave.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
And you know, I'm actually against us negotiating Obamacare subsidies
during this shutdown. I think that sets a bad precedence.
I'm I'm a fan of single item bills. If we
(02:01):
need to open up the government, it's only twenty four pages.
I like simple bills. It's something that everybody has agreed upon,
its bipartisan. It simplifies things. This is how we usually
avoid a lot of shutdowns.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
No, I know, it seems like we get to shut
down all the time.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
But if it's a bipartisant bill that everybody seems to
agree on, including the Democrats, and it's something that they've
voted on, it starts to simplify the process of continuing resolutions.
But Schumer and Jeffries and all that are suggesting that
now they hold the line that the longer this goes
it helps us. I don't know who US is if
(02:40):
not the Democrats, and it it starts to add other
elements to it. So what the Democrats want to do
is take this time while they can hold up a
government that they are the minority in temporarily, they get
to hold up the government and say, you know what,
let's use this as a negotiating ploy. I want us
(03:03):
talk about the big beautiful bill. I want us to
talk about Obamacare subsidies. I want to talk talk about,
you know, funding for illegal immigrants or whatever. Well, I
think that sets a bad presence. The continuing Resolution funding
for the government is just that. And once we start to,
(03:24):
you know, give in to this extortion of okay, they're
gonna hold America by the cohones unless you know, whatever
they want starts to get negotiated in, that could be dangerous.
The whole reason why we have a continuing Resolution and
we do is because it's supposed to be separate from
(03:45):
all the other drama that we have throughout the year
and the legislative sessions, because the government funding needs to
be separate from that.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
But what Chuck Schumer wants to do is use this.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
As an opportunity not to mention an opportunity for him
to be able to you know, get I don't know
a political credit you know with you know, with with
those that are you know, leaning more towards the progressives
because he's got an election coming up. And so as
much as I want the government to reopen and I
(04:21):
don't want Americans screwed over this, I don't think it's
very realistic and practical to start negotiating for things that
should not belong in this particular vote. And if the
Republicans say, look, we're all voting open the government. We're
just waiting for the Democrats to vote yes. I mean,
(04:41):
we're offering another vote.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Come on.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
And the Democrats are like, yeah, but we want to
talk about this, and we want to seek Trump and
we want to talk about you could do all of
that after the government's opened up. I mean, let's get
back to business. But they think they're not going to
have the president's here. They think the only time they
have the president's ear is now. You know, So should
(05:04):
Trump get involved? Some GOP think that Trump needs to
get involved with this. I mean, you know it's I
I remember I told you he kind of needed to
back off of the rhetoric of well, then you know
we're gonna start cutting Democrats.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Uh, you know, LED agencies and things like that.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
You don't want this to be retaliatory, you know, you
don't want to have that, look, but I would rather
be worded as is, Look, you know, the money's running out,
so we need to take money from one department to
fund another. And since our TSA and our military are
pretty damn important right now, we need to take funding
(05:41):
from I don't know whatever USAID or whatever they're doing. Uh,
because this is taking precedence. It just that the shutdown
shouldn't be going on this long. And I think once
Republicans say, you know what, yes, we'll go ahead and
start negotiating Obamacare.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I mean, back go on for months.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
To try to fix the ACA, which was a really
crappy bill with the exception of the pre existing condition
clause and the covering physicals, the rest of it. I mean,
it destroyed our healthcare system and now we're paying insurance
companies for ridiculously high priced insurance plans.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Tell me why that was a good idea.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
And this was under Obama, Pelosi and Sibilius Catholic. Sibilius
this wasn't even a Republican thing.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
So you know, eventually.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
The Democrats will have to sign the CR because Republicans
have I think, sent the message. I know the Democrats
are like, well, the Republicans won't negotiate, they won't whatever.
This is all all this is to sign a CR
that's twenty four pages and all the Republicans signed it,
and it is the same CR the Democrats have signed before.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
So the onus is really to be on the.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Democrats when their constituents are like, look, we got things
giving travel coming up.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Come on, let's just open.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Up the government and then you could try to negotiate
Obamacare and all the big beautiful bill stuff you're upset
about later because the Republicans are like, we're not keeping
the government closed.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
We signed it. Here's all our votes, we all signed it.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Here.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Here, here it is.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
I mean we I guess they're missing five Democrats. They
just need five Democrats to get their act together. So
as much as I don't want this to be a standoff,
I think the Republicans have done all they can do,
and then any sort of negotiating for different legislation is
going to have to be addressed in different sessions in
a different forum one eight to seven seven Doctlli don't
(07:48):
the way.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Right, we are back on the Doctor Dolli Show.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Thank you offer to men one eight seven seven Doctor
Dolli one eight seven seven Doc d a l I.
So a woman fell and tripped in a Target parking
lot and has been awarded eleven million dollars. Now, before
somebody goes, oh man, what a faker, No, I think
(10:45):
her case is valid. So this is being reported by
the Independent. And this happened in Florida. She actually fractured
several bones. Was initially offered a million dollars her attorneys,
my guests advisor, Now we could get a little bit
(11:06):
more than two hundred fifty thousand dollars. She ends up
being awarded eleven point three million dollars by a jury.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
The forty four year old was.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Given eleven million, three hundred ninety one thousand, one hundred
and eighty three dollars and twenty eight cents and twenty
eight cents is important after taking a tumble at a
super target in winter Garden, which is an Orlando suburb.
This happened December twenty third, twenty nineteen, during the busy
holiday season. She was carrying her daughter through the winter
(11:36):
Garden Village shopping center, going in between cars and traffic
and puddles, and she passed a landscaping island and she
tripped over a seam where the asphalt met the concrete
gutter of the curb. This is a section of the
parking lot that had a notable and abrupt change in elevation.
(11:57):
Apparently it violated several building code. After stepping on the
uneven surface, her left ankle twisted and fractured. She starts
falling over, but she's trying to save her baby that
she's holding, which we moms have done. And when you
try not to fall and balance yourself and prevent the
(12:21):
baby from hurting themselves and getting hurt, you sometimes get
yourself in a pritzeled up position. This caused her, when
she did fall, to break the right to be a
fibula and lateral malluolis. The unidentified woman was represented by
Morgan and Morgan attorneys Matt Morgan, Fan Lee, and Perry Nova.
(12:42):
They're the ones that helped her turn down the two
undred fifty thousand dollars pre trial settlement offered and her
Orange County jury found target was ninety percent at fault
at fault and awarded.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
The woman the multimillion dollar payout.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Now, by the way, if that fall caused her to
sustain a bunch of the fractures, I would recommend that
she get her parathyroid checked, not thyroid will thyroid. Always
get your thyro check, but her parathyroid as well as
her vitamin D. I do always suspect some underlying osteoporosis.
(13:16):
When somebody sustains multiple fractures from a fall, the the
the uh, they wouldn't change jury award. You know, she
fell because of uneven surface. But a young mom suffering
that many fractions from a fall, I wonder if she
has an underlying condition that's leaking calcium from her bones.
So I would suggest she get checked for ultra osteoporosis,
(13:38):
vitamin D deficiency, and parathyroid issues.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Just an aside.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Now, the fall took place outside of a super target
during the holiday season.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Excuse me. The Independent asked for target to give a statement.
They didn't.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
But you hear these cases of trips and falls, or
like the McDonald's case where somebody burned themselves on the
coffee and won, you know, multimillions of dollars. I talked
to a lawyer who worked on the McDonald's case. The
reason why it was kind of a slam dunk for
the person to be able to assue McDonald's was the
(14:16):
coffee was so piping hot and McDonald's has standards and
apparently that particular McDonald's had been warned multiple times that
the coffee was too hot. Well, then they're sitting ducks
for a lawsuit if they hurt somebody. And so, you know,
when you are a franchisee, you know, or you are
(14:38):
a manager or an owner of one of these, you know,
if there are building codes or things that are not
abided by you know, I mean, a lawyer is going
to find them. You might be thinking, I don't know
what the building codes are?
Speaker 2 (14:51):
You kidding me.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
I'm just supposed to be figuring out the bottom line.
It's a busy Christmas season. I'm just making sure people
are getting trampled. Trust me, when an attorney and this
isn't you know, being negative about attorneys. This is what
they're paid to do, you know, where they are supposed
to glean through every possible piece of evidence and any
(15:12):
possible angle going. Okay, there's an issue with the asphalt.
Is their neglect? Was there malpractice? Was their you know,
lack of following city codes. It's kind of pretty standard
that they would look at that. So if that target
was not doing what they were supposed to do, somebody
(15:34):
could get suit. Now, slips and falls. I had some
listeners who said they had a slip and fall couldn't
find a lawyer who would take it.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Well, you know, it's interesting.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
You know, lawyers will take cases that they think are
they will review the case.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
I'm actually seeing some doctors doing this too.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
I remember I needed to refer a gas or neurology
case to a gastronurologist and they asked what the insurance was.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
What.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
You know, you're starting to get some people that are
are now being more picky about the cases they take.
But you know, if you fell and you know there
was you know, they they look at you know where
you fell, and you know what what you know, ac
sinuated circumstances were many slip and fall cases will not
(16:20):
give you an eleven million dollar payout. And one thing
I'm worried about is that there's a case like this,
somebody could be like, wait a second here. You know
stores are distracted around the you know, the holidays. If
I could become a millionaire just by breaking my ankle.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Yeah, I mean so, trust me. There are people that
set this stuff up. And what's also very frustrating.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
And that's fueling that type of bad behavior, and and
this case she's I I this was this is not
uh in relation to the plaintiff on this one.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
This this is a case which I think was a
slam dug in her favor.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
But you'll have patients that will do this doctors, or
do this to business own where they know they'll get
a settlement. And if they bring up a lawsuit rather
than the doctor or the or the company going through
years of expensive litigation, they're like, you know what, I'll
(17:15):
save money. Just paint the couple hundred thousand.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Thank god, I have never been sued. Nobody's ever asked
for a settlement.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Whatever I've you know, done a fairly you know, good
job making sure that every single thing, you know that
happened to my patient was the best possible outcome. But
I've seen this with doctors where somebody gets a scar
after a procedure and they're like, well, I want to
sue the doctor, and then it starts going down this
lawsuit and their malpractice insurance companies like, you know what,
they want thirty grand. Just give them the thirty grand.
(17:44):
You'll save yourself the money. And the doctor's like, but
I don't want this on my record. I didn't do
anything wrong.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
You know, she smoked, she didn't take care of the wound.
This wasn't me. And there's a pressure to settle.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
And you know, I mean I would, I would want
to fight it to the core, but that gets expensive.
It's like when you play poker. Oftentimes you could win
if you have the money behind.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
You to outlast the other players.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
And I've played hands that I probably shouldn't have but
because it looked like I had the extra money, and
I'm like, you know what, I got the bandwidth for this.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
I was able to get other people to fold.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
But then there's been some hands I've had where you
know what I went, you know in terms of like
charity chips and not my own money. But I'm already
two thousand and charity chips in and I'm like, you
know what, this person has more guts than I do
and more money.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
I just can't do it. I'm out. So huh uh.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
You if the teaching points to this is if you
are getting ready to go, you know, shop for the holidays,
which I am going to also talk about a little bit.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
You know, understand that there's a lot of hazards.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Look at what happened with Walmart with that security guard
getting killed and trampled on. Okay, you need to understand that,
you know there are hazards. You also have to understand
that many other companies are not doing their job. You
expect that these other companies are making sure that everything
is to the utmost safety. They might have the will,
they might have the good intentions, but some people are
(19:21):
getting metal shards in their foods.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Some people are getting peanuts when they have peanut allergy.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
You know you have poor roads. In fact, you know
I posted this picture. I was at a shopping center.
It's a very common shopping center, busy one in my
neck of the woods, where while you're driving down the
parking lot there's parking places. Somehow this parking lot had
(19:50):
painted parking places in the middle of the thoroughway, and
so I posted this saying, guys, be careful. Now, most
some people that go to the shopping center know it's
a mistake. But imagine somebody, you know, during a busy
holiday season going to I'm going to park here, and
you're just driving and all of a sudden there's somebody
(20:11):
that is just I mean, I'm serious.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
It's supposed to be like a a not.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
A street but whatever, you know, pathway for cars that
you're driving down the road and there's just all of
a sudden parking places and you see the road connect
to a stop sign, So how are you supposed to
get around these cars?
Speaker 2 (20:30):
It makes no sense. It's a mistake.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
So just be aware that not everybody is safety first.
Out there one eight seven seven out Dolly, don't go away.
Speaker 7 (21:00):
At Hotshot Secret, we share the science behind common diesel
problems in their solutions.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
For example, diesel fuel setane levels.
Speaker 7 (21:08):
In many states, the setane rating and diesel fuel is
forty two to forty five. Most diesel engines operate more
efficiently with the cetane rating of forty eight to fifty one.
Treatment of hot Shot Secret Diesel Extreme will raise your
seatane seven points, increase fuel economy, and improve cold starts.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
All Right, we are back. I'm going dot to d
alias show. Thank you all for tuning in.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
One eight seven seven Doctor Dolli one eight seven seven
D O C D A L I.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
So today is.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
October twenty second, and you know what I'm planning on
doing the rest of this week or by this weekend
Christmas shopping. I am going to start my Christmas and
Hanukah shopping this weekend. Now, some of you will be like, okay,
do to DOLLI. It's not even Halloween yet.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
What are you doing?
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Well, I'm trying not to get screwed. That's why every
year I tell you, guys, how I am seeing the
prices jump November December. So it's my job to remind
you too, because I always remind you too late. I go, guys,
you probably should have bought this in October or September.
(23:10):
So I want to have you guys think about maybe
start looking at some of the prices of things that
you think you might want to get your loved ones
for Halloween or not Halloween, for Christmas or Honkum.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
So it's interesting. There's a VR vest.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Apparently VR is really really big, you know, the Oculus,
the medquest and these are they called half the vests
where I thought you would feel the punches like when
you do the boxing games, but I think you just
kind of feel the sounds. And so apparently there's a
vest that the list price was two hundred ninety nine dollars.
That's gonna be one of the biggest items to shop for.
(23:48):
That's gonna be one of the biggest Remember when Nintendo
games and Billy Bass, Fishmouth or whatever I'm telling you
right now, one of the biggest things that is going
to be sought after for this Christmas season are these
VR vests. They're white and black. They're called WOOJR ves
w j e R And so the list price is
(24:10):
two ninety nine. Well, I look and Target has it
for four ninety nine, and I'm starting to see the
prices go up. The two ninety nine price was at
best Buy and was on other sites, and it was
sold out, sold out. Finally a week or two later,
I could get one of these vests because my son
(24:32):
likes to do VR. But now it's up to three
forty nine, so I'm like, you know what, I think
I'm gonna get it now. He already has something similar,
so we're actually gonna return it. And it really wasn't
exactly what you know, he thought it was going to
be and I thought it was going to be. And
so we're returning. And luckily the company has a good
return policy. Make sure you get you, make sure you
(24:53):
know your return policy. But you know, mark my words,
it's three It was two nine, then it's three forty nine.
Target is starting to sell them for four ninety nine,
Mark my words, come Christmas time, this sucker is going
to be more expensive.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
And I can't tell you how many times I have
gotten screwed.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Over waiting till the Black Friday sales and Christmas time
to buy something.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
And you know, in these shops defense, everybody's struggling these days.
I mean it's not easy.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
I understand that the economy is better than it's been
in a while, and gas prices are going down, but still,
I mean, you know, people don't have the money that
especially since now things are just ridiculously expensive. So if
you one of the reasons why they call it Black
Friday is because companies would be in the black as
opposed to being in the red. I'll talk about Black Friday,
(25:49):
will we get closer. There's a lot of different reasons
why it's called Black Friday. It's kind of interesting in
the Black Friday history, but this is the time of
year when companies get to finally be in the black
if they were in the red. And so I understand
they're going to try to have these doorbusters and then
get you in. And then now that you're a captive audience,
you're gonna be paying higher for things.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
And so I told you there was a bike. When
my son was younger.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
He really likes the Spider Man movies and Toby maguire
is the original Spider Man.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
So there was a bike. There was a Spider Man bike.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
So I'm at the store and I went the day
before Thanksgiving, so it was Wednesday before Thanksgiving week, and
I asked the guy, the gentleman to help you bring
it down.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
He's like, why are you buying this? And I'm like,
because I want to get it before Black Friday.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
The prices are going to go off. He's like, no,
trust me, come in at six am. I'll get the
bike down on Friday. I'll get the bike down for you.
I'll be here, just get it on Black Friday.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
So I left. I came back thirty six hours later
six am.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Not only was the bike gone because he probably wanted
it for himself, but all the bikes were twenty dollars more.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I was so living now.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
I'm not saying all stores do this, yes, but for
those of you going, well, I'm gonna buy my kid this,
I'm gonna buy them this, I'm gonna buy you know,
how do you this?
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Wifey?
Speaker 8 (27:07):
This?
Speaker 3 (27:08):
You know, you might want to take a look at
the prices now and you might want to consider shopping now.
I just just something that I would I would recommend.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
You know.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Another thing that I think also is is I really
really like gift cards?
Speaker 4 (27:22):
You know?
Speaker 3 (27:22):
I I you know, always kind of worry that it
doesn't look like you're you're putting a lot of love
into it.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
And there's a bunch of different ways you could show
love with a gift.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
Card, but the one of the best gifts people like
are the gift cards because they could use that at
a later time. You have your name on it, so
they remember you gave it to them, as opposed to
just another box or basket of something that they might
never use or eat. And so, you know, and I
struggle with this because, like, I want to get them
gift cards, but it looks like I want the easier,
(27:54):
lazy way out. You could get a real nice card,
you could decorate the cards, you could put a nice poem,
and you can explained, you know.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
Look, I wanted to.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Get you, you know, a gift that I know you
would use because I know you like this.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
This is this, you know, but and personalize it, you know.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
But I didn't know exactly what music I should get
you or what I should you know, you know, And
so I know this is what you this is what
you like, and you could personalize it and they're gonna
love it because it's it's like free money. And so
for those of you who want to not you know,
deal with all the lines at these stores, I mean Costco,
Sam's Club, you get gift cards. I think got a discount.
(28:31):
I think that is really really cool. And of the
coolest things with Costco and Sam's Club is the discounts.
So pick a day when they're not busy, you know,
and it's not Christmas time and holiday shopping, and then
go and get those. In fact, another thing you can
always do is decorate so like like you could put
it in a cute mug, you know, and then then
put some cellophane around it and decorate it and put
some candy in it. Or you could put it in
(28:54):
a you know, let's say somebody really isn't a gardening
you could get a little pot, you know, put little
paper in there so you know, dirty, dirty it up.
Put the little gift card for home depot or whatever
wherever they like to get the gardening stuff. Put a
couple of things of seeds.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
You just made a really really cool gift. Now a
lot of people like, well, gosh, Dahlia.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
You know, a gift card you got to spend fifty
or one hundred or two fifty, not exactly. A twenty
five dollars gift card can still go a long way
for you know, that could still be a huge gift.
Even a five dollars Starbucks gift card can can still
go a long way. And you if you're like God,
I gotta give them something twenty five dollars worth. But
I well, then then get a mug, a really cool mug,
(29:33):
put different types of coffee in it, have different flavorings,
things like that, and then as an extra little gift
in there, there's also a gift card. And I mean
you could turn it into something that that looks like
a very you know, a nice, nice gift that costs
some money and you actually saved. So I come up
with a lot of different gift ideas. You know, tell
(29:53):
me what your budget is and email me at doctor
Dalia dot com, d R d A l Iah dot
com and I'll try to do my best at giving
you guys ideas. But you know, maybe think about this
weekend now. I know there's a lot of Halloween sales
and candy and all that, but you know, also stores
will sometimes lower their pricing, you know, Tuesdays and Wednesdays,
the non shopping days, and be.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Prepared for searche pricing.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
What a lot of companies are doing are going to AI,
are going to automation where rather than somebody putting another
sticker price on something, where it's going to be digitalized,
where if they think the sturge is rising, the prices
will be able to go up digitally, and it's all
based on the code, and it's going to take a
(30:39):
while for companies to have the little digital marketings of
what things cost online. They got already do it automatically,
but in brick and mortar stores it's going to still
take a little while. And so you know, understand that
your search pricing is going to usually be higher on
the shopping days, the weekends, and you know, Fridays. It's funny,
people used to work on Fridays. Now many people don't
(31:01):
work on Fridays, so Fridays can be more expensive. You know,
one of my kids is looking for a used car
to trade his car in, and he was going on
the weekend, and I'm like, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
If you're gonna look for a car, go Mondays or Tuesdays.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
If you're gonna go use car shopping, car shopping Mondays
or Tuesdays. Because there's fewer people shopping, the salespeople want to,
you know, make their quota, and so they're going to
be a little bit more willing to make a sale.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Another thing, too, is.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
You got to look at certain times of the year
when they're getting new inventory and they get rid of
old inventory. And also when they have to make their
numbers or their quarterly numbers. So when you know that calendar,
you know that they're going to be a little bit
more incentivized to make the sale, then you might be
able to work down the price one eight seven seven
(31:52):
doc dollar.
Speaker 4 (31:52):

Speaker 2 (34:19):
All right, we are back on that after Ali show.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Thank you all for tuning in one eight seven seven
Doctor DOLLI one eight seven seven d O C D
A L I. So one of my listeners asked, what
is the best way to approach the topic when your
child asks you if they think they're transgender, gay, et cetera,
and so you know your doctor.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Can give you advice.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
You know, I I always find that conversation, uh, just
already an amazing one in that your child feels comfortable
talking to you, so that that already means you're a
good parent. The fact that your child feels comfortable talking
to you about that is fantastic because there's a lot
of kids out there that feel like they taught to
(35:01):
their parents. So first of all, well done. You know,
there there was that recent study where there was data
from the University of Buckingham showing that the share of
college students identified as transgender has.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Now had in just the last couple of years, and.
Speaker 3 (35:17):
So transgenderism is not supposed to be as fluid as
you know. It depends if transgenderism is being equated to
body to gender dysmorphic disorder or if it's being you know,
I am going to be who I want to be,
and I'm going to be rejecting the girl boy genders
that society gives us. Uh And and so you know,
(35:39):
when you have a child, as I said that, that
comes up and says, look, I don't know if I
was supposed to be a boy. I don't know if
it's supposed to be a girl. That first and foremost,
that's actually very common. It's very common for kids to
wonder that.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
I told you.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
I was three and I pee on myself because I'm
standing up in the bathroom and I go mom, and
my mom was livid. She goes, you know, because now
there's pee all over the floor, pee all over my clothes,
and she's like, what the hell were you doing?
Speaker 2 (36:14):
And I go, I was pean.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
She goes, you're you're supposed to sit down. I go, no,
daddy doesn't sit down. And I'm gonna be like daddy.
She's like, no, daddy's a boy, you're a girl. I go,
I'm not gonna grow up and be like daddy.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
She's like no.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
Now, remember I hated my mom, so I found this
news very distressing. And then my sister marches up. My
sister was six years older than me. She marches up
and goes, and you're gonna get boobies, so you won't
run as fast, and you're gonna bleed every month.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Well, as a three year old, I was like, are
you kidding me? I don't want to be a girl.
Oh hell no.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
But but it's I bring that up now. I'm very
glad I did want to be a girl. I'm glad
I am a woman, end up marrying my husband, end
up being able to have kids. So I'm blessed with
what God gave me. But not that uncommon for kids
to go way a second here, why can't I be
like daddy? Why can't I be like Why can't I
(37:18):
do this? Why can't I be like my brother? Why
can't I be like my sister? You know, so, so
that that's not it's not uncommon. When it is starting
to get rare and concerning is when a child is like,
I'm in the wrong body. I'm not supposed to be
in this body. I'm supposed to be in that body.
Why do I have these I want to tear it off.
I want to a body dysmorphic disorder or a gender
(37:40):
dysphoria and gender dysmorphic disorder or dysphoria disorder can be
very very mentally challenging, and and and people really really struggle,
and you want to get them help, and you want
to get them support because you don't want them to
live a life.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
Thinking they're in the wrong body. Nunately, Uh, politics got
in the way and said.
Speaker 3 (38:02):
Well, we'll just fix you. We'll just make you a girl.
We'll just make you a boy. Snip snip, cut, cut,
chop chop. Infuse hormones. And now we have a bunch
of people transitioning because it's hard to do. And as
I've said, you know in earlier shows, when you transition,
it's not a one time deal, you know, like oh,
(38:23):
I'm just gonna get a nose job or I'm just
gonna get my boobies done. I mean, you have to
maintain the hormones aggressively expensively. It's a big commitment, not
a commitment a child can commit to and understand the
ramifications of which is why I don't recommend children transitioning.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
I think that's it's it's barbaric for them, and and.
Speaker 3 (38:47):
You know, to promise them that they'll look like, you know,
Beyonce as a girl or you know, I don't know,
John Cena. No, it's it's not it's not realistic. You know,
As an adult who wants to transition, all the power
to them. I support them, But for a child, no,
So if your child does come up saying I don't
(39:08):
think I'm supposed to be a boy, I don't think
I'm supposed to be a girl, you want to have
that conversation going, okay, well you know, why what is it?
You know, why don't you think you should be a girl. Well,
I don't like weary dresses and I don't like barbies.
I didn't either, I couldn't.
Speaker 2 (39:25):
I really didn't like playing with barbies, and I really
didn't like wearing dresses. So I'm with you on that.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
But girls don't have to play with barbies anymore. Girls
don't have to wear dresses. Oh really, Yeah, you can
wear whatever you want now, what if it's a boy
and the boy goes but I want to wear a dress.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
I like dresses. Okay, why do you like dresses? Is
it because you think they're pretty?
Speaker 3 (39:52):
Is it because you're getting hot and these jeans that
you're wearing and these pants are uncomfortable? Is it because
then you get to be in the girl's bathroom and
not be bullied in the boy's bathroom.
Speaker 2 (40:03):
So you want to find out what the root is.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
One of the reasons why transgenderism rose and a lot
of people started transitioning is you had a lot of
people who were having mental health issues and depression, and
somebody told them, well, maybe it's because you're living in
the wrong body, so make yourself a boy or make
yourself a girl. And the average person, it didn't. It
didn't help their mental health struggles. And it takes a
(40:29):
lot of work to try to be somebody you're not
and go through all those hormones and all that. It's
you know, but for some people it did help them
have an I have somebody in my family who underwent
transitioning and he is now she and she says she's
never been happier, and I'm really happy for her. Well,
(40:49):
but for some people it didn't solve their their their issues.
So when you do have a child that goes, I
think I'm the wrong gender, you don't find out what
exactly is it? And is it that you think your
life would be easier if you were the opposite gender?
Speaker 2 (41:04):
And why is that?
Speaker 3 (41:06):
Are you getting bullied? Are you getting beat up? Is
it that you're not You feel like you're failing, you know,
in gym and the other boys are marginalizing you, and
you want to be better at gym.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
You want to be I mean, they're they're you know,
there's a lot.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
Of things that go wrong in school and that people
get bullied about for et cetera. And you know, it's
not just about wearing dresses and playing with barbies or
being able to play with.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
Trucks and stuff.
Speaker 3 (41:30):
So it was interesting. One of my sons reminded me.
He said, Mom, when I was really, really little, I
remember a conversation I had for you, asking how do
I know if I'm gay or not? And I go, really,
I don't remember having this conversation, and he said, yeah,
I had asked you, how do I know if you're
you know, how do I know if I'm gay or
or I'm telling myself I'm not gay because you know
(41:53):
your friends, you know, make fun of you, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (41:55):
And he goes, how does somebody know if they're gay
or not? Now?
Speaker 3 (41:57):
And my child was really really young, so I was
working and I guessed pretty quickly.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
I came up with this.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
I was like, okay, well, you see they're Selena Gomez
and Justin Bieber. Who would you rather kiss Selena Gomez.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
Or Justin Bieber? Oh, Selena Gomez.
Speaker 3 (42:15):
I go, well, then then you know you might not
be gay. You you might be you know, heterosexual, but
you're too young for that. You can't tell if that's
who you are at this age. But he remembered that
that that's what it is. I'm not saying that that's
a litmus test or but you know, that was a
conversation looks like I must have had years ago with
(42:37):
nearly twenty years ago.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
With my son. When because it's a question, they'll ask,
I'm like, well, how do I know? How do I
know they have?
Speaker 3 (42:44):
They have and I'm glad they have questions, and I'm
glad they come to you. And so I was like, well,
who do you seem more attracted to. When I have
patients who tell me they have poor sex drive and
they don't want to sleep with their husbands and they
think something's medically wrong with that, I go, okay, Well,
if you saw Brad Pitt or you know, Denzel Washington
(43:05):
or Michael Jordan or you know, you.
Speaker 2 (43:07):
You know, do does that kind of get you know things?
Speaker 3 (43:11):
You know?
Speaker 2 (43:11):
Does that light a fire? Well? Yeah it does.
Speaker 3 (43:16):
So you know, do you think it's just your husband
or do you think it's a general you know, and
and and so you know, sometimes we do have to
kind of ask, you know, and and you know, you know,
consider another situation, and and but you know, it's it's
a much longer topic than I could do in a
short radio segment. But if you do struggle with how
(43:37):
to talk to your children about that, just talk to
your doctor. One eight seven seven dot Dolly.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
Don't go away. Can you believe?
Speaker 8 (43:54):
