Speaker 1 (00:11):
The Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Be good to yourself this week. People. I'm telling you
that because when we move the clocks forward, there are
a lot of issues. Everybody knows that, health issues in particular.
People worry about heart attacks, things of that nature. Just
telling you because I love you, guys, and I want
you to be safe. Okay, now let's get to it.
The economy stupid. Whether you've moved the clock forward an hour,

(00:35):
or you left it there, or you move it back
an hour, it's the economy stupid.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
We have the Republicans on the run. They are on
the run in terms of the economy. In fact, Donald
Trump and Republicans are crashing the economy in real time.
Donald Trump gave one of the most divisive speeches by
a president in American history one hundred minutes. And he
barely spend any time on the economy because it's collapsing

(01:01):
on his watch.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Okay, thank you. How came Jeffer is useless? As we
all know, is it collapsing on his wats. There's gonna
be some issues, There's no doubt about that. There's gonna
be absolutely some issues. Of course, there is. If the
tariffs go into full effect, and this is a big

(01:23):
if because they've been they continue to extend, and the
negotiations and the talk and the battle, and Canada's got
a new prime minister, you know, and all this stuff.
There is going to be potentially some serious issues. What
does it look like? I don't know. We're gonna have
to put into effect. How long does it last? Again,

(01:43):
I don't know. But you're handing him the economy six
ish weeks in, seven weeks in when, like I've said,
that's gonna have to be some time. You're gonna have
to give him some time. Now. A year from now,

(02:06):
six months from now, this is his economy. Six weeks
from now. Portions of this will absolutely be his economy.
But to say all of this is the inflation, all
of that stuff that didn't happen overnight, just like wait right,
you put weight on, you put twenty thirty pounds on.
That doesn't happen overnight, and losing it isn't going to

(02:30):
happen overnight.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
They made promises with respect to lowering cost Costs aren't
going down.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
They are going up.

Speaker 3 (02:36):
Inflation is going up. You know what's coming down Donald
Trump's poll numbers because he is mismanaging the economy and
the American people are feeling it, and with just at
the forty five day mark.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Well, we're gonna find that out now. You never want
the economy when itchy, when things are bad, you blame
it on the other guy, and when it's good, you
take all the credit for it. Why would or should
the American people trust Democrats to lower the cost of living?

Speaker 4 (03:04):
After the last four years, we have created more jobs.

Speaker 5 (03:06):
No, no cost of living. You brought it up, you said
Trump's not delivering.

Speaker 6 (03:09):
I just want to know why we should trust democrats
whose skyrocketed inflation.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
For Why would I trust?

Speaker 1 (03:15):
I don't think you all won. So now fix it.

Speaker 7 (03:18):
You said you were going to fix it now for
forty days, okay, right.

Speaker 5 (03:21):
Fix it?

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Fix it. We created more jobs, No, you didn't. That
whole job thing again was a lie. Telling people that
can go back to work because of COVID isn't creating
a job. The job was already theirs and it was there.
You just told them they could go do their job.
That's it. But there's no doubt. There's some people out

(03:43):
there worried about tariffs. And here's a weird thing. I
was talking to a guy this weekend, my little sister
had her wedding. We flew out to Orange County and
we're literally there for two and a half three days.
It was just a world win thing. But one of
my little brother's buds is a long short and so

(04:07):
they're very heavily Democrat. But he's like, yeah, Trump, we
like what Trump talks about. We like the fact that
Trump wants to make things better. We like the fact
that Trump wants to push for certain things. The Democrats
may look at unions and say they're ours, the reality
is the union members aren't fans of the way that
the Democrats do a lot of their business. And it

(04:30):
was very interesting to hear. But the tariffs are a worry,
there's no doubt.

Speaker 8 (04:35):
Uneasy, volatile, unsettling, you can pick whatever adjective you want.
But here's what the numbers look like this past week.
Looking at the Dow average here with all of the news.
You start last Monday, and look, you could see how
the average just plummeted late Monday, that is when Trump
made the announcement that the tariffs were coming. It continued
on Tuesday as the tariffs were imposed. Of course, then

(04:56):
you had the reprieve for automakers deferring a lot of
the other tariffs in the market did start to make
a little bit.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
Of upward movement.

Speaker 8 (05:03):
And actually on Friday, when you add it in that
new jobs report, you know, some folks on Wall Street
feared it might be worse than it was. The market
actually did close up a bit on Friday, but down
significantly for the week.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Yeah, there's no doubt that there's gonna be some serious unease.
And we've talked to it. I talked about all the
time with our buddy Zach Cabrahm, Chief Vestment Officer. There's
gonna be some ease right now. And that market's overbought.
We've known that for many, many, many moons. You know,
you got stuff trading at sixty five times earnings. That
feels a little bit much. But there's gonna be some

(05:37):
on ease. There's gonna be some worry, there's gonna be
some fear. There's gonna be some some stuff that isn't
gonna go perfect. You're not looking for that. And how
Trump and I've said this, how the economy goes is
the thing that matters most. If by Memorial Day, the
struggle is real. Things are continuing to rise. Prices are
continuing to rise. That struggle is that's on him now,

(06:00):
that's on him, not forty forty five days in. You
got to give him a little bit of time to
work some of this stuff. But it's still going to
be about the economy. Stupid. If you can't get the
economy going right, I don't care if you fix Ukraine,
I don't care if you have fixed the Middle East.
I don't care if you do all of the other things,
people will be pissed. It is about the economy, because

(06:20):
everybody knows this. Your world revolves around you, not the world.
Your world. And if the world's more expensive, and if
you can't pay for life, guess what, you're not happy.

Speaker 8 (06:33):
Two things to highlight here in terms of Trump and
his policies.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
Take a look at this again. This is the now average.

Speaker 8 (06:38):
Between election day and inauguration day, it was up basically
four percent. There was optimism on Wall Street about what
Trump would do as president. But since inauguration day, when
Donald Trump began in acting policies like we saw this
week with tariffs, it's been a very different reaction from
Wall Street, down more than.

Speaker 4 (06:57):
A point and a half.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
Since Trump was an aug you're reading because he sees, hey,
I got to do some of these things that's going
to make people uncomfortable. And because of that, one of
the things we've talked about when it comes to the
and look, here's the thing. The stock market is not life. Right.

(07:19):
You're forty seven years old. You got money in the
stock market. Obviously you don't want to lose it. But
it's a long term play. Your goal is to retire
with your four oh one K and your investments and
be able to draw on that. But you're not retiring tomorrow,
so you got to put that out of play now.
If you're in the market now and you're retired, well

(07:39):
that's a different story. But the stock market is not
unless you're a day trader and you want folatility. If
you're a day trader, you do. But the stock market
itself craves one thing stability. It likes stability, It likes
knowing what's coming and going from there. But while this

(08:03):
is going to be a struggle for Trump the economy,
the left is gonna have opportunities to pounce on it,
whether or not they do it in the right way.
Because it's hard to pass all of this off on
Trump because common sense people look up and go, you
know what. Sorry, you guys had four years and you
ran this thing. Stupid you did going out this weekend

(08:26):
and spending time with so was a wedding and my
new brother in law, Isaiah Daka we call him, and
my little sister Breed. They got married and it was awesome.
But you know, there's a lot of people there. A
lot of people know what I do. People wanted to
talk to me about certain things. We had a good time.
But I'll tell you what. They're all willing to give

(08:48):
Trump a chance when it comes to some of this
stuff now. Like I said, a few months from now,
that can all change. But they're willing to give Trump
the benefit of the doubt when it comes to the
economy and tariffs, and people recognize this is not an
overnight thing and this is not going to be something

(09:08):
that is going to be snap your fingers. They see, Hey,
this guy's got a plan. Let's see what takes place. Now.
Like I said, a few months from now, that could
all change. If life is way more expensive, then people
are going to be pissed. But if you explain to
the people, this is why we're doing these things. And

(09:31):
we're doing these things because our goal is to help
bring back jobs here, to make it fair for our
people to compete that are making things. Well, then that's great,
but you've got to keep the people alert on what
is going on. It's that simple. Meanwhile, apparently the government
could shut down, which this is the rigor more that

(09:54):
we do all the time. I touch on this briefly
because let me tell you what happens. They always get
a cr they get it at the last minute. Everybody celebrates,
they can never pass anything on time. But we've got
a panic.

Speaker 9 (10:06):
House Speaker Mike Johnson has unveiled a spending bill that
would keep the government funded through September. It boosts resources
for immigration, enforcement and defense, well cutting some other programs
here at home. But actually getting that bill passed will
be a major challenge. Democrats are against it. They argue
that it empowers Elon Musk in his efforts to aggressively

(10:27):
slash federal spending.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Oh my god, slash federal spending. No, no, are you serious?

Speaker 10 (10:37):
Well, that deadline is fast approaching, just March fourteenth, to
avoid a government shut down, and this is how Speaker
Mike Johnson's potential solution he is laying out a stopgap
measure known as a continuing Resolution that would fund the
government through September thirtieth, and it does have President Trump's support.

(10:58):
In fact, he went to social media after Johnson revealed
that text to say, quote, the House and Senate have
put together, under the circumstances, a very good funding bill.
All Republicans should vote in parentheses, please in all caps.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
Yes.

Speaker 11 (11:15):
Next week.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
They'll panic, then they'll get something done. Shut it down.
Don't shut it down. They freak out about this, but
this will be the talking point for this week until
they get something sorted out or they kick the can
down for another thirty days three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad ben to Chows
your twitter tweet at a texted program, I hope you
guys had a good weekend. Thanks you Rich for filling

(11:41):
in on Thursday and Friday. I really appreciated that. It
was just good time had by all in our travels.
We'll talk a little bit about that later, but first, Lean,
I'm gonna need more. Lean did not bring my Lean
with me. It's one of those weekends I hate wait
too damn much. Let me tell you about Lean. It's incredible.
Yo yo dieting sucks. That's where you drop twenty put
on twenty five, then you drop thirty put on thirty five.

(12:03):
You don't want to do that. There's hidden dangers in that.
By the way, you increase your chances of heart attack, stroke,
type two diabetes, all kinds of stuff. Lean is incredible,
all right. I take tablets today. There's no prescription, all right,
and it is awesome. This helps you escape the frustrating
yo yo dieting you know cycle that goes on. So
Lean is the supplement. It's not an injection, and it

(12:25):
is awesome. Three things. It does the three big things,
which is maintain healthy blood sugar, control appetite and cravings,
burn fat by converting it into energy. If you're tired
of playing the game of yo yo dieting, try Lean.
This is what I want you to do. Go to
take Lean dot com right now, use Benson twenty and

(12:46):
you're gonna get twenty percent off. Right now. Go to
Takelean dot com, use bentson twenty. Stop the yo yo dieting.
Take Lean dot com use code Benson twenty. It is
the chat Benson shoe Chad Benson Canada's got a new

(13:12):
prime minister kinda sorta Hey.

Speaker 12 (13:14):
There's someone who's trying to weaken our economy. Yeah, Donald Trump,
Donald Trump, and Donald Trump, as we know, has put
as a prime minister, just said unjustified tariffs on what
we build, on, what we sell, on how we make
a living. He's attacking Canadian families, workers and businesses and

(13:39):
we cannot let him succeed.

Speaker 13 (13:44):
And we won't.

Speaker 14 (13:45):
We won't.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
So who is this guy? Mark Carney is a former
investment banker right work at Goldman Sachs. He easily won
to succeed Trudeau eh as the Liberal Party leader and
he's called for so essentially what he's done is he

(14:08):
will take over now as prime minister and then they'll
have elections. So because remember Trudeau resigned about two months
ago but still runs the country. It's the way it works.
They need to figure out, Okay, who's going to run
this party. And that's kind of the way this thing
is gone for the last couple of months, where they
looked for somebody and everybody keeps saying, well, what about
the Conservatives? Are they going to win the election? They're not.

(14:29):
One of the reasons they're struggling in Canada even though
they had all the momentum. Honestly, it's Donald Trump. Donald
Trump has not helped the Conservative Party in Canada at all.
It's actually hurt them more. The Right has been led

(14:50):
by a guy named Pierre Poliev, who is you know,
people say he's not. First of all, their conservative is
not our conservative, their maga is They like to point
out this guy. This guy's not maga. He's none of
those things. He is very much a Canadian version of Conservatism. Uh,
he's a little bit. He's just it's different. But it's

(15:13):
not helped. Trump has not helped at all in going
after Canada, and he's not helped Pollyev whatsoever. It's funny though,
the way that this has played itself out over the
fact that you know, Canada is going to do because
I think mister Carney, who doesn't actually even have a

(15:35):
seat in parliament and then he's going to face Polliev
of the Conservative Party three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show. Is your
Twitter tweet at as texta program right here in the
Chad Benson Show right now? The Conservative Party is that
really at the if you would have held this two

(15:57):
months ago. I think Polyev wins, but I don't think
he wins now. I think Carne will win and it'll
just be you know, Trudeau two point zero. How can
you say that Trump is hurt? Well, it's they look
over and they look at Polyev and anybody who's associated
with Trump in any way, shape or form or gets

(16:18):
compared to Trump is an issue that a lot of
people have, and that's why they look and say, ooh,
Trump is just he's a bridge too far for Canada.
And so Polyev by default will get some of that
blowback if you will no blowback here though, with our
good friends over at Roughgreens ruff greens dot com, I

Speaker 13 (17:37):
Chat Son, Chad Benson, Joe, the Chad Benson Show, Stupid.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
It's always fun to listen to ladies and gentlemen. She
leads the way, the one, the Only Jasmine Crockett.

Speaker 15 (18:11):
It is not a criminal violation to enter the country illegally.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
It's not a criminal.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
It's crime. It's not a crime, which is why they're
so frustrated.

Speaker 15 (18:21):
Because they really want our local law enforcement to go
out and round up people when they could be looking
out for the murderers and the sexual abusers as well
as the robbers.

Speaker 5 (18:31):
They want them.

Speaker 15 (18:32):
To go and round people up on civil accusations. It
is not a criminal violation to enter the country illegally.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
It actually is, so the first time illegal entry eight
USC thirteen two five, so thirteen twenty five, So a
mis demeanor, okay, fine and up to six months in jail.
It is a felony if you've been deported and you
try to come back again. So it is a criminal

(19:03):
It is a criminal violation. Okay, Jasmine, it is. It's
a criminal violation. And you said they should be going
after they're trying to go after. Remember sanctuary cities and
sanctuary states. What are they trying to do? Protect all
of these people? We saw it last week in the hearing.
Let's protect everybody. So Ice calls and says, hey, you've

(19:26):
got ah not such a good guy, and then not
such a good guy. We've got orders for him to
be removed. He has been arrested and or convicted of
several different things, and he's in your custody. So if
you can hold them, and we're going to send one
or two officers to pick them up. They'd be fantastic,
but these you know, the worst first, well, the worst

(19:47):
first disappears when these sanctuary cities get on their high horse.
They're mightiest of high horses, and they decide to allow
these people to bounce. We'll let him out the back door,
and we'll release them in a parking and tell them
Ice is coming for you got an hour to get
out of here. Now, all of a sudden, Ice has
to do what They've got to go searching for this guy.

(20:08):
It could be a gal, but I'm gonna go with
a guy. What happens anyone? Oh yeah, that puts more
people in danger. And then what happens? More people end
up getting rounded up because instead of the worst first,
you play this game, and then they have to go searching,
and they go somewhere, and all of a sudden, several

(20:30):
people get rounded up that weren't involved in any of this.
But you want to again, get on that high horse
and play the morality game of we're protecting people, when
in reality you're protecting the bad and not the good. Now,
what you're gonna hear over the next few days is
something like this gentlemen in Michigan who is fifty five,

(20:56):
same as jose couadeloup Hi Maz was arrested after dropping
off his son at middle school the other day. And
you know, in line at middle school, here comes ice
and they pull up behind him and they pull him

(21:16):
out of the car. There's three vehicles flashing lights and
they drew guns on him, and now he's in a
Saint Clair County jail, and immigration advocates are totally upset
by this. Oh how can this happen. This guy's got
no criminal record any of these things. That's true, but

(21:36):
everybody who's come here illegally knows that at some point
in time they could be caught and detained and potentially
escorted out of the country.

Speaker 15 (21:49):
I mean, I just don't think that they realized that,
like they're separating families.

Speaker 6 (21:54):
I mean, he's just such a good man.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
He probably is a good guy. Nobody's saying he's not.

Speaker 16 (22:00):
I always try to tell us, like, just go after anything,
because I mean, he always tried to give us a
life that he wasn't able to get.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
While he was young. He was always just like go
to school. You know, he regrets not going not finishing
high school and he's just like, get an education. So
he has been in the US for thirty years, started
his own painting business, supports his wife and five kids.
They're scrambling to find out what may happen to him.
He's got no criminal charges, and everybody's like, see how
horrible this is.

Speaker 15 (22:26):
One of the agents even told him, you know, honestly,
I don't even know why you're here because.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
I mean, you have no record.

Speaker 17 (22:32):
You didn't do anything bad, nothing.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Except for one thing in twenty fourteen. He had an
order to be removed in twenty fourteen. I want you
guys to understand this. Do I think he's a bad
guy and he's a worse first, No, but you cannot
tell me that people need to go through the process

(22:58):
and when the process doesn't turn out the way that
you want the process to go, meaning he goes through
the entire legal court case, battles it out, goes in
from the judge on numerous occasions, and eventually they say, sorry,
this isn't going to work. You must leave, and you

(23:18):
don't leave. What's the use of then having a court
at all or any rules? That's the issue, and he's
got in order to be removed. Do I think he's
a bad guy. No, it sounds like by all accounts
he is a wonderful, great guy. But we have a

(23:43):
court for a reason. That court is there for a reason,
and if we're going to have rules and decide not
to follow the rules, then what the hell are we doing?
That's a fair question. Three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show is

(24:05):
your Twitter? Tweet at his text to program. Meanwhile, sticking
with immigration.

Speaker 18 (24:10):
This is all happening because federal immigration officials arrested a
Palestinian activist who played a role in Columbia University's pro
Palestinian protests last year.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
Khalil's attorney says.

Speaker 18 (24:21):
That Columbia University graduate was detained while returning to his
apartment and is being held at an ICE detention center now.
His attorney says ICE agents said they planned to revoke
his student visa.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
Is it because of the fact that it's pro Palestinian? No,
it's the insanity of which these things took place. I
read this week in Columbia lost what four hundred million
dollars in donations and federal funding and whatnot. It's the
anti Semitism that took place on these college campuses. Absolutely

(25:00):
have their right to have their voices heard, one hundred percent.
They should have their right to even have a disdain
for Israel, hate the Jews, donate the Jews, whatever it
is that you want to do. But there's also a
time and place for it. And if you're going to

(25:21):
hold people accountable for misgendering somebody, or for micro aggressing somebody,
or whatever bs you come up with, and yet you
can go on campus and essentially say or do anything

(25:41):
you want, when it comes to the Jews, you're going
to pay the price. And this is not a shocker
at all. This was going to happen. Trump said it
was going to happen, and damn it, it's happening. Oh jeez,
but snow butts. Sorry, and I'm telling you too. I
talked about it this weekend with a couple of my

(26:02):
friends who are uper progressive. By the way, so far
left it is crazy, and they all agree when it
comes to protest, some of these people have just gone
so far and are biting the hand that feeds them.
And when it comes to traffic too, that was the

(26:23):
other side of it. We got to when it comes
to the traffic side of stuff, the minute you are
blocking traffic and the minute you glue yourself to something,
you've lost your mind. But on college campuses, over and
over again, these haven't been the kind of protest that
have been just about, hey, we don't like what's going

(26:43):
on in Palestine. We've seen it at UCLA, We've seen
it at numerous Ivy League schools where this has been
anti semitic, and they got away with it for a
long time, and Trump came in and said, no more,
this will not happen anymore. We're not playing this game.
If you're going to allow protest, that's fine. But if
you're gonna be anti semitic, if you're gonna do the

(27:03):
things that you've done, if you're gonna stop classes from
going on, if you're gonna stop people from speaking, if
you're gonna stop people from defending themselves in the way
that you know, even having an opposition to that, then
you're going to pay the price for it, as you should. Sorry,
And these schools are just terrified to do anything. They're
so gutless, they really are. Three two, three, five, three

(27:27):
eight twenty four to twenty three atch you had Benson Show.
It's your Twitter tweet as texted program. Birch Gold is awesome.

and the stock market, Birch Gold is here to help
why gold is important. I want you to text the

Trump Era. Top of that, they're gonna get you an

(27:48):
investment kit, which is smart. You want to learn about

stuff to get to, including The Simpsons Treehouse, Chad Benson.

Speaker 19 (28:53):
Show, serving up talk radio, Medium rare, and dripping with irony.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
It's Chad Benson.

Speaker 20 (29:08):
On February eleven, Hackmann's wife, Betsy Arakawa, was last seen
on a surveillance camera at CBS pharmacy in Santa Fe,
shortly after investigators say she died of natural causes.

Speaker 21 (29:20):
It is reasonable to conclude that miss Hackman passed away.

Speaker 22 (29:24):
First, investigators say it is unclear if the Oscar winning
actor knew his wife of thirty years was dead, or
whether he was able to take care of himself on
his own, and autopsy revealing Hackman's stomach was empty, meaning
he hadn't eaten recently, but he did not appear to
be dehydrated.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
Yeah. The reality is he didn't know what was going
on because as we're finding out more and more dementia,
all of that stuff. She was dead for five days
I think before he eventually died.

Speaker 21 (29:56):
I performed an autopsy on mister Gene Hackman, twenty five years.
The cause of death is hypertensive and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
with Alzheimer's disease as a significant contributory factor. No acute
findings of internal or external trauma. The cause of death
for Miss Betsy Hackman, aged sixty five years is hantavirus

(30:20):
pulmonary syndrome. The manner of death is natural.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
Haunt of virus. She had the haunt of virus. Which
did you get from rat droppings?

Speaker 21 (30:28):
I have been asked when death occurred for these individuals.
There is no reliable scientific method to accurately determine the
exact time or date of death. Mister Hackman's initial pacemaker
data revealed cardiac activity on February seventeenth, with subsequent pacemaker
interrogation demonstrating an abnormal rhythm of atrial fibrillation on February eighteenth,

(30:52):
which was the last record of heart activity. It is
reasonable to conclude that miss Hackman passed away first.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
She died first dementia, lack of mobility. The reality is
that he was ninety five years old, so you throw
in all of the things. The fact that he lived
as long as he did even afterwards is amazing. She
was only sixty five, thirty year difference. So I don't

(31:23):
know how. I mean, she must have been really, really
really sick to not even want to go to the doctors. Wow, misresolved,
I think so it was not carbon monoxide poisoning. It
was not. I'm going to point that out. California is insane.
We understand that, and I don't know if you guys
understand the insanity of California. But a guy twenty plus

(31:48):
years ago who used to be an animator on the
Simpson and he produces cartoons and whatnot, built a treehouse,
a Simpson treehouse in Sherman Oaks, California, in front of
his house. It's awesome too, it's a full on treehouse,
but remember it's California. California finally said you know what, no, no,

(32:09):
we can't have that. And they're supposed to be criminal
proceedings this week. But finally the guy who has put
this thing together, has had it there for twenty plus years,
has decided it's enough, and over the weekend they tore
it down.

Speaker 4 (32:24):
I'm Rick Polizzi.

Speaker 23 (32:26):
We are out here today because the treehouse that I
built with a carpenter friend twenty four years ago is
coming down. The city has started a criminal trial on it,
and that trial is on Wednesday, and.

Speaker 4 (32:45):
The city is going to make me pay for court costs.
And it's just.

Speaker 23 (32:49):
Kind of being a bully, and so I'm taking it down.

Speaker 4 (32:54):
We're paying for it to get taken down. So they
dismissed the charges. I do not want to go to
court on Wednesday.

Speaker 23 (33:01):
So that's why this is all coming down.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
Yeah, coming down because that's California. You know what they
wanted to do if they were going to keep it up.

Speaker 24 (33:08):
That the city has been putting a lot of restrictions
on it. They wanted to go ahead and do soil
samples and at architectural designs.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
Yeah. They also said it was a dwelling and the
people could live there. What why don't you guys worry
about the water and the lack of it and how
half of your city burned out rather than focusing on
a guy for years whose house has brought happiness and

(33:36):
joy to people.

Speaker 23 (33:37):
Been a lot of people, and that's been great to
hear how how many people it affected.

Speaker 4 (33:43):
And we're here at Halloween. We did a big.

Speaker 23 (33:45):
Halloween display called Boney Island, and everybody's been coming by,
grown up people saying I was here when I was
you know, twelve and thirteen, and that's nice to hear.

Speaker 4 (33:57):
So and they have fond memories of the tree house,
and I'm thrilled to hear that. I'm glad they got
to experience it.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
Yeah, I'm glad they got there as well before it
was eventually torn down for being a dwelling, a nuisance.
The neighbors were upset. A few neighbors are upset about everything.
Get over it. They're upset that trick or treaters come
to their house. They're upset that peopled up Christmas lights.
Why twenty years? Why now? Well, because we're too busy
going after everybody else. They wanted soil samples.

Speaker 23 (34:28):
My god, you know, when I moved in, I just
saw these three trees in a triangle and I thought
we could build something cool in it, maybe, And we
started and started a platform and kept going up until
we ran out of tree basically, and it was a
nice hangout and we always let people go in it.
We were never stingy about if we were out here,

(34:50):
come see the treehouse. You'll get a kick out of it.
So we were always open with it. Same with Halloween.
It was free, family friendly. I just wanted everybody to
go together. I like community events, and I thought it
brought people together. We didn't know a lot of neighbors.
People keep to themselves, it seems like in some of
these communities, and.

Speaker 25 (35:11):
So I get it.

Speaker 23 (35:12):
So we could meet neighbors and hang out and have fun.
Then we've made tons of friends, so much goodwill. I
would not change a thing. I would do it again
in a second.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
Well done, California. Another solid move by LA three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show.
Is your Twitter tweet at as text the program right
here on the Chad Benson Show. Coming up hour two
of the program. A lot of stuff still to get
to today. Ukraine, Russia, Israel and Palestine. What's going on there?

(35:48):
Because Ukraine has kind of taken the headlines back. What's
happening with Israel and Palestine. Are they any closer to
getting something done? We've got more on tariffs. We've got
plenty of stuff to talk about, including sleep maxing. If
you don't know what that is, you're about to find
it out. It's very interesting. Indeed, you can reach out
to us across all of our social media at Chad

Speaker 26 (36:23):

Speaker 2 (36:52):
Somebody a long time ago thought this was a good
idea daylight savings, But the reality is the benefits, at
least this first week or so, isn't always there. In fact,
the numbers are pretty ugly when it comes to health.

Speaker 24 (37:06):
Yeah, so unless you live in Hawaii or Arizona, you're
going to be failing a little bit on Monday morning.
We know that daylight savings is a shift in the sunlight,
and the sunlight is a real big queue for our
circadian rhythm, that inner clock in our body that controls
cellular processes bodily functions, and you would wonder, could that
one hour shift really affect so much?

Speaker 1 (37:25):
Well, yes it can.

Speaker 24 (37:26):
The research shows that actually there's an increase in heart attack, stroke,
blood pressure, heart rate, inflammatory markers, hospital visits, and missed
medical appointments. There's also a decrease in alertness, poor mental health,
and a general awakeness feeling of cognition. And then we
think about things like increases in fatal traffic accidents. We've
seen that go up by about six percent, even stock

(37:48):
market volatility.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
So the list goes on and on.

Speaker 2 (37:51):
Oh my god, why are we doing this? This sounds horrible.
There's got to be some benefits, right.

Speaker 24 (37:56):
So you wonder what is the good side, right while
walking out of the office and seeing some sun life.
But most Americans would not like to have daylight savings.
In fact, even the American Medical Association and American Academy
of Sleep Medicine have recommended that we shift to a
fixed standard time because of the public safety and health rix.

Speaker 2 (38:13):
I agree, so I've moved. But I was in Arizona
for a long time, and while in Arizona, I guess what, kids,
we had no daylight savings time. It was just always
the same and it was lovely. It was lovely, but
this hour ahead, and it's weird because I traveled this weekend,
so fly out to California, so I go back two hours.

(38:37):
Then we jump forward an hour. Then we got to
get on a plane and come here, and then it's
just it's crazy. It is. Now if you're saying to yourself,
all right, I've heard all the bad, give me something, Chad,
give me something good. Here, tell me something good. Tell
me how we can fix this issue this week, so.

Speaker 24 (38:55):
We can start to shift our bedtime a little bit earlier.
So move it up by fifteen to twenty. Men, it's
the day after and the few days after daylight savings.
Get out, be in the sunlight early in the morning,
avoid that excess alcohol or caffeine before bedtime, and screen
so good sleep high gene. And then generally, you know,
we think about napping as maybe being a bad thing,
but that first week, you can take some naps as

(39:16):
long as they're earlier in the day, Michael, before two pm,
about twenty minutes. And if you have controller reschedule, maybe
don't schedule important meetings or events in those first few
days of the week.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
You got it. I can do all those things. I'm
going to do all of those things. I'm not going
to schedule anything. It is frustrating that those first few days,
but when you listen to the issues that go on,
and it's frustrating because I heard Trump say it was

(39:47):
fifty to fifty, because many states have voted on it
and said we don't want it. The problem is it
takes an actual act of Congress to sort it out,
which is stupid.

Speaker 5 (40:00):
It's just.

Speaker 2 (40:02):
Get rid of it. I mean, is anybody enjoying it?
The question is do we stay back an hour or
do we stay forward where we are an now and
just leave it like this. I'm always a bigger believer,
and we're going to talk about sleep in a little
while with sleep maxing. I'm always a bigger believer in

(40:27):
more sunlight when I'm awake. That's just me. Other people
maybe not so much because then the kids getting up
it's a little darker in the morning. I don't know
who is it? North Korea? Was it North Korea tried
to set their clocks ahead, like fifteen minutes or something stupid,
something only North Korea had done. Let's take a look

(40:49):
at that. North Korea. My crack team on it clock time?
What was it they tried to do. That's right, They
tried to set it back thirty minutes to create its
own time zone. Sow them. Oh my goodness, Kim jung

(41:10):
Ud always went in friends. Everybody always went in friends.

Speaker 3 (41:14):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
Speaking of winning friends, that's what Gavin Newsom's trying to do.
So Gavin Newsom, you know, he's got his new podcast
and people are angry about it. And I even saw
something today that I just thought was ridiculous, an article
about the big thing everybody's talking about. He had Charlie
kirkhn and they talked about a lot of different stuff,
but one of the things they talked about was the

(41:38):
trans sports issue. I said, last week, there was a
dude competing against girls in high school track meet. It
was the long jump. He won by eight feet eight
feet eight feet? Do you understand what eight feet is
in a long jump? That's massive. But Newsome and kirk

(42:00):
talked about it because Gavin's I don't want to say,
he's trying to have it both ways. He's trying to
be empathetic but understanding that there is no way that
that that that boys should compete to bits against girls.

Speaker 6 (42:12):
Like you right now should come out and be like,
you know what, the young man who's about to win
the state championship in the long jump in female sports, right,
that's that that shouldn't happen. You as the governor should
step out and say no, no, And I appreciate and like,
would you do something like that? Would you say no
men in female sports?

Speaker 27 (42:28):
Well, I think it's an issue of fairness. I completely
agree with you on that. So that's easy to call
out the unfairness of that. There's also a humility and
a grace. You know that that these poor people are
more likely to commit suicide, have anxiety and depression, and
the way that people talk down to vulnerable communities is
an issue that I have a hard time with as well.
So both things I can hold in my hand.

Speaker 2 (42:52):
When you go look at the data. They're depressed, they're suicidal,
they're all of the things long before they decide to
swap genders. So that has been a lie to for
all the years they said, hey, you know, if you
don't get your kid this, they're gonna commit suicide. Would

(43:13):
you rather have a son that ends up being your
daughter and alive or no son at all? That whole
BS is a bunch of wack could do stuff. But
the whole debate, I mean, it's so hilarious that we
even have this conversation. And again, this is not about sports, right,
It's not. It's about this cultural Marxism of trying to

(43:36):
force people to say you must do this or else
you will be punished for it. And people had enough
of it. This is a doctor Aniwal from I think
Washington State. He is talking, He's on PBS talking about
this after this whole thing with Charlie Kirk and them,

(43:57):
and he's trying to explain how they're really science isn't
really sure there's an advantage?

Speaker 28 (44:04):
Well, the evidence is incomplete on that particular question.

Speaker 2 (44:08):
So right there, I'm like, dude, I sorry, I can't.
If the evidence is incomplete when it comes to sports
and physicality, if the evidence is incomplete when it comes
to whether or not males have an advantage in this area,
then why do we have men and women's sports at all?

Speaker 28 (44:30):
Well, the evidence is incomplete on that particular question.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Beast.

Speaker 28 (44:34):
Data we have really comes from military recruits, people that
have been enlisted in the army or the Air Force.
At twenty twenty three, study. They have an annual test
where they undergo a one point five mile time to run,
they do as many sit ups as they can in
a minute, as many push ups as they can in
a minute. They had data from these individuals before they

(44:55):
started gender premiing hormone therapy, and then each year after
that prepup to four years.

Speaker 11 (45:01):
Anamalt says, even though the performance of trans women dropped
after starting gender affirming hormones, it took two years for
their running times to fall in line with women assigned
female at birth. The sit up scores of trans women
stayed higher until four years after they started hormones, but
their push up scores remained higher the entire time.

Speaker 2 (45:22):
That's what you guys are going to go on.

Speaker 28 (45:23):
Really, what we don't really know is what are the
effects and elite athletes. Most of the data is from
people that are not elite athletes. And the other thing
that we don't know is how long and how significant
are these changes over time.

Speaker 11 (45:41):
This ban appears to include school age K through twelve children.
What do we know about the competitive differences at those ages?

Speaker 28 (45:49):
Most experts there's a general consensus that before the age
of puberty for boys and girls there's not a significant
competitive advantage between the two secs. There are some data
suggestions there may be some subtle differences between boys and girls,
but what's unknown is whether that's due to biological factors
or if that's just due to societal factors and expectations

(46:13):
boys being encouraged to participate more in sports and giving
more opportunities to increase their strength and speed and power.

Speaker 2 (46:24):
I will tell you this, I have zero problems with
boys and girls playing together till they're ten or eleven.
I has no problems with that because you're learning the games,
you're out there, you're having fun. I got no problems
with that because I saw it with Jacks team. I've
seen it with soccer. You know, now, when you get
to a certain level, when you can start, when puberty

(46:44):
starts to kick in, then you separate because otherwise it
becomes a game of you've got no chance in hell,
and you're going to get destroyed. But I don't I
don't have any issues. Like Jack's had girls on his teams,
and they played on his teams and they played well.
But then once the hitting comes right, so you get

(47:06):
to that twelve thirteen, they start to put on size,
and you can see the ginormousness of the boys compared
to the girls, even young boys who haven't hit their
their striving couse of puberty. It is. It's massive. I mean,
you know, I'm watching Jack play yesterday or the day
before yesterday. He's got you know, he's near six foot

(47:27):
on skates, he's like six two. And there's other kids
on his team even that are like five four. So
those are boys. You put girls in the mix and
it just separates, you know, because of the physicality, because
of the size. It's crazy. And to think this, well,
science really hasn't figured this out. This is why keep

(47:48):
doing dumb stuff, keep getting dumb answers, keep looking at
America going, you guys are dumb. And no matter how
much that Gavenusom wants to play this game of trying
to walk a fine line, the reality is nobody buys
what you're saying in so many ways because you're trying

(48:10):
to make the progressives happy, and the aggressives are pushing
issues here that should never even be in play. And
it's about that cultural Marxism. That's what it is, that
cultural war. It's not about the issue, it's about what
can I get you to do to even lie to
yourself if I force you hard enough three two, three, five,

Speaker 2 (49:50):
It's another week and another opportunity to talk about Russia
and Ukraine. What will Putin do this week for Trump
that makes him want to destroy Ukraine more? Or? Or?
Or are we going to get a deal done? Chat?
Are you saying that Putin has something on Trump now?
But people think that so it's kind of fun. All right,

(50:11):
let's be real. But they are going hard. There's no
doubt Russia is pounding Ukraine.

Speaker 18 (50:17):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (50:17):
Why not provide Ukraine with ear defenses?

Speaker 17 (50:21):
And what happens is the president when Kraane runs.

Speaker 2 (50:23):
Out of because you're get busy about it a studio question,
because I have to know that they want to settle.
I don't know that they want to settle.

Speaker 29 (50:30):
If they don't want to settle, we're out of there
because we want them to settle, and I'm doing it
to soup.

Speaker 2 (50:36):
Death more important than anything else, more important than anything else. No,
it's not not according to many on the left, it's
about death, destruction, the war machine, fighting the Russians. Look,
is it good that we've exposed Russia and their quote
unquote war machine as not as deadly and danger as

(51:00):
we thought? Well, it's always nice, but it's time for
this thing to come to an end. It is. And
I get a lot of people out there's, oh, you
love Putin. No I don't. I say it over and
over again. The dude's bad. Dude, He's a bad guy.
Do I think Zelenski is without blame? No, I've said

(51:20):
last week, is Ego the rock star feel that he
has to him the all of the stuff he's got
like a uniform to look the whole nine yards. And
Ukraine is the most corrupt nation in Europe? So do
I think corruption still goes on? Do I think that
a lot of money disappeared? Yes, that's every war, by

(51:43):
the way, not just this war. But enough is enough,
and all that's gonna happen here is more and more
people are gonna die, and everybody's probably gonna end up
in and around the exact same place as we are
right now.

Speaker 29 (51:56):
Secondarily, way down the line is the money three hundred
and fifty million dollars and Europe is in for one
hundred bigion dollars. They should be in for the same
or more than us. And you know, I watch over
the last week or so what's going on in Europe.

Speaker 2 (52:11):
This thing could end up in World War three if
we don't get it. This could really end up in
a world in the world three three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show,
is your Twitter tweet at a text the program love
hearing from all of you right here in the Chad
Benson Show. Is that a possibility? Of course, everything's a possibility.

(52:32):
Simply this thing spills out over into Poland or somewhere
like that, they get into it. Next thing, you know,
NATO's dragged into it, and we do get involved, and
then it gets even uglier. Do I think that's gonna happen?
I don't now. I think commer cooler heads will prevail.
We switch from that conflict to another conflict. This one
is in Israel and Palestine as well.

Speaker 30 (52:51):
It says it's cutting off with electricity supply to Gauza,
and we must remember Gaza's actually haven't had access to
electricity from Israel's is the begin of the war. However,
this will affect the desalination plants which provide clean drinking water,
and this could have a huge impact on gasans now.
Of course, this latest move comes a week after Israel

(53:11):
blocked the delivery of food, fuel, and medicines to the
area of more than two million people, exacerbating an already
difficult and desperate situation.

Speaker 2 (53:21):
And it's about to get a lot worse. Probably once again,
Palestine not keeping up their side of it. Everybody's going well,
Israel's not keeping up their side. Where's the truth? As usual?

Speaker 30 (53:30):
Somewhere in the middle, Israel is trying to put pressure
on Hamas to free the remaining hostages without beginning the
negotiations to get to phase two. They are pushing for
an extension of the first phase of the ceasefire, which
is something that Hamas has not agreed to. Hamas has
not changed its position. They are still calling for an
immediate start of the ceasefar's second phase. Now, a delegation

(53:51):
from Hamas is engaging in talks in Cairo with Egyptian
mediators and with the help of Katari.

Speaker 5 (53:57):
Officials as well.

Speaker 30 (53:58):
We also know that in Israeli delegation is going to Doha.

Speaker 2 (54:03):
Let me tell you how this ends. Not for a while,
and not the way anybody wants, and not for a while.
Could I say not for a while? I continue to
say not for a while. You miss any of the show,
we always say, shame on you grabbed the podcast. It
is the Chad.

Speaker 13 (54:15):
Benton Show, Son, Chad Benson, Joe.

Speaker 1 (54:40):
The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
The doge doing Doji things. Doesn't really matter because really
what it's all about is Elon Musk. He is the
great foil in this situation. He's an easy person to
have a disdain and hate for if you're on the left,
and he's everything that is evil. He's a cis Mail,

(55:05):
so stupid who is wealthy and successful, so everything that
he does is automatically evil.

Speaker 7 (55:14):
I have an idea for them. Why don't they cut
the fifteen billion dollars that Musk has received in federal funding?

Speaker 2 (55:21):
I mean, really cares, specifically him risking our astronauts.

Speaker 4 (55:26):
No, no, no, no.

Speaker 7 (55:27):
So Elon's programs are fine, but everybody else's programs.

Speaker 4 (55:31):
She wants to cut him out of the government. He
does a lot of important things.

Speaker 7 (55:34):
Wait, we're not talking about his space program. I'm talking
about how Elon Musk, the wealthiest person in the world,
is in the federal government making decisions about grants and
about funding whenever he benefits from those things.

Speaker 2 (55:48):
So are there going to be some conflicts of interest? Absolutely,
should we make sure we look at those. But come
on the kind of way and insanity that they're talking about,
it's not the same. It isn't This is not about
whether or not that certain things should or shouldn't be cut.

(56:10):
I think we all recognize that. By the way, Marco
Rubio earlier today said usa ID will be cut as
far as the programs by eighty three percent. Eighty three
percent of those programs are gone because they do not
line up with the importance of what it is that

(56:32):
we are trying to do. There'll be a thousand programs
still out there, still working, a thousand contracts as were
working with Fantastic, and that is minuscule compared to what
needs to be cut. Because again, we live in a
nation that no longer wants to have a serious conversation
about the things that we need to have serious conversations about.

Speaker 7 (56:50):
He has people in a number of government agencies. Yes,
it is true, including the FBI, in order to find
ways to gain grant and to make more money. And
are you okay with that?

Speaker 4 (57:03):
Is that something you're.

Speaker 23 (57:03):
Okay what you're for, but you're not.

Speaker 4 (57:06):
For cutting I think you're full of it.

Speaker 2 (57:09):
Scott Jennings there, and I think you're full of it.
What exactly again, is it? Well, we already have a
space program. We have this, We have that our space
program isn't very good right now. It isn't. And our
space program really exists because of the help of certain
things like Elon Musk and private government. Oh really, yes, really,
but they're running around doing stuff. They've got access to things.

(57:33):
They're all a bunch of five year olds who have
access the stuff because that's what cheer all the time.

Speaker 31 (57:37):
This acting Social Security Administrator says, we know that these
doge kids his words, not mine, that they're going to
make mistakes, but that we have to let them see
what's inside because there probably is fraud and they can
get at it. But there are Inspectors General that work
inside of Social Security and that's all they do is
try to look for fraud.

Speaker 2 (57:59):
Well, they weren't doing a good job. And part of
the thing about the fraud side of stuff, And this
is something I think we need to have a serious
conversation about again, is the fraud side of stuff is
great that you're looking at it, but you're looking at
it through the lens of nineteen fifties and sixties and

(58:20):
seventies and if you're lucky eighties technology, when there is
other opportunities to be more forward thinking with things like
technology that will help identify certain things in a faster
paced way.

Speaker 31 (58:36):
You've got to acknowledge how much money it's going to cost.
If it's going to cost as much as ten million dollars,
you got to find the people to fix it. And
here's the biggest problem with that. Who is going to
fix it? Because you have to have somebody who actually
understands how social security programs work. If they're successful and
they save money, that's a good thing, but if they
mess up. What we're talking about are vulnerable older populations

(58:57):
who rely on these checks to survive, and.

Speaker 2 (59:01):
We don't want them to mess up. Nobody does. But
the way they make it out to be is and
let me say something, Democrats here, you're shooting your shot
that they're going to do something so insane that it's
going to destroy social security or medicare and medicare you're

(59:22):
putting that out there, I will tell you this. You
shoot that shot. But when you fail, remember if you're
going to hit the king, you better kill the king
kind of thing. If you fail, that's it. You got
no more shot at this. Then they will have an
opportunity to maybe to run rough shot. They think, well,
you know, they're going to go in and they're going
to identify stuff and that people and get their checks
and everything's not going to work. You guys, are the

(59:46):
self importance of government and how much government needs to
be there and how much? Why do you think that,
well it's going to cost ten million, what's ten million?
What's ten million for a government that is always spending
millions and billions of dollars on stuff and we get
crap results from it. What's ten million here or ten

(01:00:07):
million there? Putting something in that may save billions of
dollars and we And this is where the likes of
Donald Trump, Elon Musk and anybody else who's got the
the the voice out there and the opportunity to speak

(01:00:28):
on things like this, this is where they need to
be out there, and they need to be saying on
a daily basis, we're not cutting Social Security, We're not
cutting anything from the program. We're fixing it so we
can save it because everybody has ignored the program for
so long when it comes to the impending doom that

(01:00:51):
if we do not handle this the right way, there
won't be anything to save. So we must save it now.
But part of that, again is also on us, and
the reason is simple. We will not have an honest
conversation in this country about what needs to be done.

(01:01:13):
We won't we won't have an honormous conversation about retirement,
how much money's actually going to be needed. We're not
going to have an honest conversation over the fact that
it's going to go belly up, that our unfunded liabilities
are closer to eighty trillion dollars give or take.

Speaker 26 (01:01:34):
That.

Speaker 2 (01:01:34):
We're promising people today stuff that they can have in years.
But the reality is the stuff they're putting in there
today we're taking away and we're handing it out now,
and at some point in time we're going to hit
the end of the road, and then it's going to
be a nightmare. That's why he calls it a Ponzi scheme.
The whole thing about a Ponzi scheme is you always

(01:01:55):
have to be able to replenish, and government thinks it can. Well,
if you're focusing on only on one thing, if it
was only social security and you had enough people, then
it would work. But we're not gonna have enough workers.
We're not gonna have the same kind of workforce, and
it's it is going to be a disaster. The math

(01:02:16):
doesn't math. So if we can save some now while
we buy time for later, fantastic. And then we have
to have an ominous conversation and everybody listening has to
say to themselves, okay, honest conversation, I'm willing to have it.
And the minute you hear something you don't like, like, hey,
we may have to extend retirement age from you know,

(01:02:38):
sixty two, sixty five, sixty eight, maybe seventy, something of
that nature, people freak out about it. Well, when you
go and you freak out about it, and you go
and you lose your mind about it, when you go
and you say crazy things about oh my god, oh
my god, we can't do that, then what happens is
every politician is a knee jerk. Reaction, and they all
step back and go, oh, we can't do anything about it,
so they're just gonna let it right over the cliff.

(01:03:02):
We have to be open to hear the truth. Otherwise
it's a waste of time. Three two, three, five, three eight,

Coming up, what the hell is sleepmaxing? We discussed Straight
Ahead Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 19 (01:04:54):
If you look talk radio like Chad Benson likes his meals,
You've come to the perfect place for takeout.

Speaker 2 (01:05:02):
We love having fun on this show and talking about
things that matter in life, things that people do. How
to utilize your time? Have you heard of sleep maxing.

Speaker 11 (01:05:13):
It's sleep maxing.

Speaker 9 (01:05:15):
It's a trend where young people maximize the time it
takes to do their routine before going to bed so
they get more sleep.

Speaker 2 (01:05:21):
Okay, I understand that.

Speaker 16 (01:05:22):
So like things like taking magnesium and making the room dark, turning.

Speaker 4 (01:05:26):
Down the thumbert things like that.

Speaker 5 (01:05:27):
Yes, yes, okay. Camilla Charles a college scene You're in
Florida is among the millions of young adults who are
now prioritizing their sleep routine in order to catch more
zetes magnesium.

Speaker 1 (01:05:38):
I go to sleep, and I do my skincare.

Speaker 31 (01:05:40):
I'll put my hair.

Speaker 26 (01:05:41):
If it's strands, I'll put it like in like little rollers.

Speaker 2 (01:05:44):
Now. I don't sleep max but I also don't sleep,
so it doesn't really matter. My wife, on the other hand,
she does sleep, And yeah, I don't sleep. Everybody's all,
do you really, No, I don't. If I'm lucky four
hours a night. If I'm lucky, on average, about three
and a half hours a night. My doctor said, for

(01:06:06):
whatever reason, you're just one of the few people out
there that have this genetics idea that you don't need sleep.
But I will say this, I try to maximize when
I say the best that I possibly can if I'm
gonna do it. I want to sleep, but I do
have a routine, and I try to tell my kids
that I have a routine. My clothes are laid out
the night before, so it's one decision that is done
that I don't have to worry about in the morning.

(01:06:28):
Like I have very much a routine, not so much
to maximize my sleep, but to maximize my time.

Speaker 5 (01:06:34):
One recent analysis found gen Z spend more time sleeping
than any other generation. That seems survey. So they also
spent more time exercising and prioritizing self care than others.

Speaker 8 (01:06:47):
Just want to make the quality better.

Speaker 5 (01:06:49):
It's part of a trend known as sleep maxing, maximizing
the time it takes to do your routine before going
to bed so you can get more hours of sleep.

Speaker 2 (01:06:58):
Kind of figure out what works for me.

Speaker 3 (01:06:59):
Actually, room is dark, no, no television, no nothing.

Speaker 4 (01:07:04):
You gotta be quiet, man, And freezing code in my room.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
Well, freezing cold's phenomenal. We traveled a lot this weekend
and I did not get a lot of sleep, which
I didn't But traveling, as you guys can know, it's
upsets everything. And god, dude, just it's so weird. It's like,
I would never eat like this at home. Try not to.
You get somewhere, You're like, well, I could have fourteen
hundred of these, but the cold is so important. And

(01:07:30):
every time you go into a hotel room you just
want to go straight down and you're like, where's the
polar bear living at? That's it very important. Sleep maxing
absolutely my kids, you know, I mean, I've got gen
z kids and they they could sleep. Man, they can sleep.
That whole new generation of sleeping. It's crazy. I mean

(01:07:54):
Jack and Lily could sleep for a day and a half.
It's like, are you sure you guys don't have mono.
Even though they maybe consider good sleep or wrong, they
want to make their sleep even better.

Speaker 16 (01:08:02):
Yet, well, gen z or Is may be prioritizing sleep.
A survey of all Americans found a majority fifty seven
percent said they would feel better if they got more sleep.
The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommend seven or eight hours.
On social media, some young people are going as far
as taping their mouth shut along with using nostril expanders.

Speaker 2 (01:08:24):
A lot of things people do that are not necessarily
evidence based. Of course, I've seen the taping the mouth shut.
They've got tape for that. There's all kinds, there's all
kinds of things. You know what dark room cold, A
little bit of noise, you know that white noise, and
then go to sleep. I like dark, dark rooms cold.
And the other thing I prioritize is I may only

(01:08:45):
get two hours at night sometimes, but I try to
take a nap at least two or three times a
week in the middle of the day for about thirty
minutes to an hour. And it's awesome, it is, but
I just don't sleep. But I see how they're trying
to prioritize this. So sleep maxing kids adults. If you're

(01:09:09):
wondering why your kids are doing what they're doing, they're
not lazy, they're sleep maxing. Okay, you guys getting that.
Just want to make sure that you guys understand that.
Speaking of understanding, love is blind, it's a TV show
and a white woman to the rescue who decided I

(01:09:30):
can't marry this guy, and the love is blind because
of our values.

Speaker 17 (01:09:34):
I love you so much, but I've always wanted a
partner to be on the same wavelength, and so today
I can't. I'm sorry, but I don't want that to
be misunderstood. I still love you and everything about you
is amazing, and I care about you so much.

Speaker 2 (01:09:50):
I care about you too, and I love you so much,
and I know I want to stay with you and
keep growing our relationship if you allow you, well see
we'll talk about that. So the way this works, the
singles try to find a match and fall in love
without ever seeing each other face to face. An emotional

(01:10:10):
connection attempts to conquer the physical attraction. So you got
these two people up there and they're supposed to get
married and she doesn't want to. Is it because she's
not attractive? Or is it because black lives matter?

Speaker 28 (01:10:23):
What?

Speaker 17 (01:10:24):
I know that the connection we have is so real,
But we've talked about a lot of the values that
I hold so close.

Speaker 20 (01:10:29):
To my heart.

Speaker 1 (01:10:30):
Making this decision.

Speaker 17 (01:10:31):
My mind is telling me, I can't. I knew the
whole time coming into this, the timeframe like that's not
like I feel like I know him, like really yeah,
Like I remember, like I asked him about like black
lives matter and I'm no expert, but like when I
asked him about it, he was like, I guess I
never really thought too much about it. That affected me
especially in our own city, Like, how could it not

(01:10:51):
How did not make you think about something?

Speaker 2 (01:10:55):
Wait? What you did marry him because of black lives matter? Oh,
she's not that. And yet I.

Speaker 17 (01:11:00):
Asked him too, like what his church's views are, and
he said he didn't know. And so then I watched
a sermon online about yeah, sexual identity, and it was traditional.
I told that to then, And it doesn't really have
much to say about it, you know, And I love

(01:11:21):
them to think about that stuff. Sometimes I did wonder
if it was surface fun, care free love that we
had equality, religion, the vaccine.

Speaker 2 (01:11:33):
The vaccine. Oh, for the love of God, dude, you
dodged a freaking bullet. I will tell you that now,
a bullet you dodged. Love is blind, and sir, you
are lucky it is because it didn't find you. He
didn't understand black lives matter. The vaccine, he didn't get

(01:11:56):
to vaccine. He didn't understand that. Geez three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three. At Chad Benson Show

of you. Make sure you also check out Chad Benson
show TV on YouTube. We appreciate that. Right here on
The Chad Benson Show, coming up, hour number three, little

(01:12:21):
watch trending more on the controversial wasn't really controversy. Everything's controversial.
Gavin Knew Some sat down with Charlie Kirk and it
was interesting because everybody's trying to spin it a certain
way because the dude's running for president and his goal
is how do I reach people who already think I'm
a douchebag by rereaching them thinking I'm not as douchey

(01:12:43):
as you might think. And it is so evident this
guy wants to be President's so freaking bad. And the
big talk about the trends issue in sports, which as
we all know, is ridiculous across the board. If you're
missing the show, had the podcast, it is Deep Benson Show.

Speaker 26 (01:13:02):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:13:31):
I'm a huge believer that you can get an education
all over the place, and in fact, we're seeing education
really kind of take a shift over the last few
years where more and more people are headed to trade school,
especially the gen Z generation looking at and saying I
don't want to come out of school with you know,
seventy one hundred thousand dollars in debt and end up

(01:13:53):
having to essentially work most of my life to pay back,
you know, sort of loan that I didn't really want
to take out, but I was told that I have
to because this is how I need to go about
doing certain things, otherwise I will become nothing. And that's
not true. We all know that it's a bunch of

(01:14:14):
bs and bunk. We're seeing that more and more. But
Randy Weingardt is losing her mind because the whole the
thought of the Department of Education being shut down is
just how could we do such a thing. It's needed,
she says, is.

Speaker 32 (01:14:29):
Why so many people are so mad about it, because
they're just taking opportunity away from kids and own have it.

Speaker 1 (01:14:36):
So billionaires, kids are billionaires, they have it.

Speaker 5 (01:14:39):
They go to private schools.

Speaker 32 (01:14:41):
Everyone else ninety percent go to public schools.

Speaker 1 (01:14:44):
Don't take away their opportunity. So let's stay on the fast.

Speaker 2 (01:14:48):
Sorry, no, I'm really.

Speaker 5 (01:14:49):
Angry about this.

Speaker 1 (01:14:50):
Because I'm really angry.

Speaker 32 (01:14:52):
I taught kids in Clara Barton High School in Brooklyn.

Speaker 6 (01:14:56):
New York.

Speaker 2 (01:14:57):
Okay, and how'd that go for you? Well, now you're
the leader in the clubhouse when it comes to this
is all about power. By the way, this is all
about power with the Department of Education. Randy's going to
go anywhere and say anything she has to say about
the evil that is coming because of Elon Musk and
the cuts. I'll have you know, by the way, about

(01:15:18):
ninety percent of the funding eighty to ninety percent depending
on where you are, of funding for education comes from
your state. So all of this money from the fence. Well,
that's about power. Just to let you know, only about
twenty to thirty percent of the total budget of the

(01:15:40):
Department of Education makes it into the classroom. I want
you to soak that up for a second. Only about
twenty to thirty percent. Let's just put it on the
high end at thirty percent. That means seventy percent of
it goes to other thanks, Okay, seventy percent goes to

(01:16:02):
other things. How does that make you feel?

Speaker 14 (01:16:05):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:16:06):
It makes me feel gross, I know, right, Randy, what
do you have to say, because you've got a lot
to say.

Speaker 32 (01:16:12):
If you look at the Constitution, it's the Congress who appropriates.
It's the Congress that makes laws. A president signs it
and executes the law. But it's really only the Congress
that can abolish the Department of Education. So but what
the president can do and what they're doing, and you

(01:16:34):
see it in all of the you know, with the
chainsaw that Elon must used, you know, over and over
again in these last month or so. They can make
government basically ineffective, not work by a thousand cuts. And
that's what they're doing. So if you essentially fire the

(01:16:55):
entire staff or eighty percent of the staff of Social
Cury and somebody needs to get the Social Security card,
they're not going to be able to get it in
a timely way.

Speaker 2 (01:17:08):
Oh okay, people are already having trouble doing that anyways.
Uh and when did they say they were firing everybody?
That again is another one of the insane things. And
they say if they fire everybody, it's not about firing everybody.
It's about putting people in positions and using technology to
streamline something. And you know what they never talk about.

(01:17:30):
They never talk about, what if we do something and
it turns out to be way effing better. What if
instead of waiting weeks to get something, it takes a
few days. What if instead of spending a gazillion dollars
here to use an anequated system that at best is

(01:17:51):
half ass. We streamline it, use technology, and it works
better and more efficiently. People are less frustrated. It's always
the worst case scenario. Well, if we change this, you
know what will happen. Everybody will die.

Speaker 32 (01:18:12):
Oh okay, if you fire everybody who's doing hurricane watch,
you're not going to have hurricane watch. If you fire
everybody at USAID, the farmers who are basically selling their
foodstuffs to USAID because they don't have a market in
the United States, they're not going to be able to

(01:18:33):
do that. And the same is true in terms of education.
If you fire everybody, or you make it non non
feasible for it to work, then none of the laws
that are supposed to be affected or effectuated by the
department will work.

Speaker 2 (01:18:53):
If you fire everybody, then nobody's talking about firing everybody.
Once again, you always go to the most negative. Why
can't you stand back and go you know what, guys,
maybe it's time that we look at being more efficient.
Maybe it's time that we look at certain things. Maybe
it's time that we do this. Maybe it's time we
take in a different approach. Maybe if you went to
government said all right, here's the deal everybody. You guys,

(01:19:14):
you have your budgets. If you're effective to a certain extent,
you know, and we put what because everybody the effectiveness
is going to be the same, say for Social Security,
as maybe it is for a certain food program whatever.
But you know, you come up with some sort of
you know, effective matrix that we can judge things on,

(01:19:36):
and if you're able to come in under budget in
this department, you guys will get bonuses for that based
on the how much you come in under budget. I
bet if you told everybody at USA you guys all
get to split two percent or whatever under budget. You
come what do you bet They're like, all right, we

(01:19:57):
have a five hundred zazillion dollars. You know, we can
do all this for like a dollar. We get to
split the rest. It's a win, and then the rest
of the money goes back into other things. You watch,
what would happen. The government's incentivizing spending money. That's what

(01:20:19):
they incentivize, spend the money. There's a reason they want
to spend the money because if you're an agency and
you have let's say, a fifty billion dollar budget, and
you spend forty three billion, and it's effective. You only
get forty three billion next year, you don't get anything more. Well,
you already did forty three. You don't need fifty two.

(01:20:42):
So you spend until you spend, and then you spend
a little bit more, and then when you're done, you go, God,
we spend more than we have. You're gonna have to
raise our budget. That's politics, that's spending. By the way,
speaking of USA, really quick, and then we'll get back
to Randy Windguard. Trump administration is canceling eighty three percent
of the programs at the US Agency for International Development
and intends to follow the remaining programs to fold the

(01:21:05):
remaining programs under the State Department. That's Marko Rubio. The
move to have the remaining one thousand US AID programs
administered by the State Department would cap the quick and
drastic dismantling of the US Independent Humanitarian Organization, which, by
the way, as we've gone over with over and over,
as CNN puts it, in the dismantling the AID program

(01:21:27):
has been involved in at least eight coups. I want
you to soak that up. We're a humanitarian program and
we'd like to overthrow your government. See how good that is?
Back to Randy, she's fun.

Speaker 32 (01:21:41):
So if Title I is supposed to go to like
Truman High School or too, you know, a high school
in Staten Island, and they're supposed to be five million
dollars that goes there, and all of a sudden it
doesn't and they don't have the money, then that means
the programs go away. So that means the reading programs,

(01:22:02):
the computer programs, the after school programs, all the programs
that are funded by Title I, and every school teacher
in America understands what that means.

Speaker 1 (01:22:12):
They go away.

Speaker 32 (01:22:13):
The same in terms of the programs for kids with disabilities.
Under idea, if a school system or a school, because
these things go directly to schools, if the funding goes away,
a kid doesn't get physical therapy or occupational therapy.

Speaker 2 (01:22:29):
Okay, is that true? In some cases? It's absolutely going
to be true. But by the way, just they're always
talking again about the worst case scenario, never that maybe
these programs will be run more efficiently and they'll figure
out ways to get this stuff done. It's always all
of these things are going to go away. Nothing ever,
good is going to come from cutting something like this.
We spend more money than any other developed nation on

(01:22:53):
education with an asterisk. I say that because we don't
spend it on education. We spend it on bureaucracy, We
spend it on admin we spend it on stupid programs
and NGOs. We don't spend it on education the way
we should. So that's the caveat I throw in there.

Speaker 32 (01:23:13):
One more from her, and to your point about red
states versus Blue states. More of this money goes to
red states. So I've said to our folks in red
states in particular, go to your school board, because states
and localities run schools. Go to your school board. Ask
them what's going to happen. How much money are we
going to lose if we don't have Title I, if

(01:23:35):
we don't have idea, And how is that money going
to be replaced? Is it going to be property taxes
raised in Jackson, Mississippi? Is going to be property taxes
raised in Montgomery, Alabama? How are we going to have
that funding that helps kids in schools?

Speaker 2 (01:23:54):
Well, first of all, if ninety percent of the education budget,
depending on state, eight ninety percent comes from the state,
they're gonna have to figure that out. If only twenty
to twenty five maybe thirty percent of whatever the Department
of Education, Again, it's minuscule compared to as far as

(01:24:16):
the education dollars compared to the state. But if only
twenty to twenty five percent ever reach the classroom for
the Department of Education to the federal level, who gives the
rats ass at that point in time? Why do we
have so many administrators? If I was running an education department,
I'd sard. Here's the deal, guys, We're gonna do technology

(01:24:38):
that will handle a vast majority of what the administrators
could do. We're gonna pay our teachers a damn fine wage,
and we're gonna focus on the classroom, not the bureaucracy.
See how that plays itself out. It's always the worst
case scenario three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four
to twenty three at chet beds. It shows your Twitter,

I'll tell you what I flew this weekend. It was fine.
A lot of flights. My little one, Charlie, it's her
first four flights we had to take. Wasn't so bad.
The flying little chaotic, you know, getting in and out
of places. I take the earlier flight. So we tell everybody,
if you want to make sure that you're going to
get your flight going in the right direction, you got

(01:29:30):
to get there early because otherwise you don't know what's
going to happen. By the afternoon. People miss connections. We
were listening to people miss connections here, miss connections there.
It was just crazy. And the expense of flying into
certain airports too, was nuts because we're there and we're like,
because I went to my sister's wedding, and to fly

(01:29:52):
into Orange County it was like one thousand dollars more
to fly into Lax. It was like one thousand dollars
more flying to Burbank. It was decently priced. Just crazy,
it is, but it was. It was a good weekend.
And I appreciate uh uh rich filling in for me
on Thursday and Friday. I really appreciate that it was needed.

(01:30:13):
It is funn everybody's like, oh man, you're on a
little vacation. It's not vacation. My little sister's getting married, said,
we landed on Thursday, get into the car, zoom down there.
All kinds of like preparations for the wedding and the
weddings all day Friday and then Saturday you're trying to recover.
But then Saturday night, you know, everybody comes over to
my mom's. It was just chaos. It was it was

(01:30:35):
there was no vacation three two, three, five, three eight
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show. That
is your Twitter and your Instagram. A lot of stuff
still to come up. If you miss any show, grab
the podcast Chat Benson.

Speaker 13 (01:30:46):
Show, Son Chat Benson, Joe.

Speaker 1 (01:31:18):
The Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:31:20):
Let's have some fun. The liberals are very angry. It's showing,
you're showing yourself. You've seen the chaos with what's going
on with the people who want to destroy Tesla, which
is just insane. If you guys haven't seen some of
the stuff, they want to take it to zero. They're

(01:31:44):
urging people now, they're threatening people you better sell your
Tesla or else. I'm like, okay, I'm talking to my
little brother, said you worried about, you know, the whole
Tesla thing, and he goes, I'm daring somebody, do it.
Do it? Do it. He love a fight. He's a
hockey guy. That's what he did. He was really good

(01:32:04):
at fighting. But this insanity of this, and it's emotionally
charged out of it's based in reality. This is a
guy who was pro trying to save the environment. That's
why he wants to go to Mars, wants to do
all this stuff, and now that he's evil because somehow
he is working in cocotes with Trump, who's the devil himself.
This is his top demon, the doing all of the

(01:32:24):
dirty work. It's all emotionally charged, it is. It's all
emotionally based. It's all charged in this insanity of I'm
gonna come after you because of emotions. Even the guys
are like super emotion. It's so funny to watch.

Speaker 33 (01:32:43):
Every issue on the left is made into an emotionally
charged issue. It's all a form of some type of injustice.
And if you actually believe that there's all these different
injustices occurring in the world, you're going to be angry
about it. But I also look at the content that
people are pushing out. I mean, most of the time
when I see like Superwool Creators, they're yelling, they're screaming,

(01:33:04):
they're angry, they're emotionally charged. Now, imagine being locked in
an algorithm on every platform giving you all that content.

Speaker 2 (01:33:12):
And that's what it's about. The emotion. Emotion, emotion, emotion.
Everything is awful, everything is horrible. The world's coming to
an end. It can't be stopped. You can't fix it
no matter what you do. It's all about stop stop
stopping it. And the only ones who can do it
or us and we better destroy everything otherwise it's going
to destroy us, etc. And it's all about the lunacy

(01:33:36):
of these crazy ideas that they're somehow some large injustice
going on and that all their rights are going to
be taking away and that they're no longer going to exist.
And it's only about this, or it's only about that.
None of it's based in reality, and if it's grounded
in facts, it's just feelix.

Speaker 33 (01:33:55):
Imagine your friends, everyone in your life being angry all
the time about things that are going on in the world.
You're gonna be angry. And then not on top of that,
all the people dealing with a lot of emotional turmoil
and they might not know where to put that, so
they are pushing it into politics. Just my two cents.
It's all a form of some type of injustice.

Speaker 2 (01:34:11):
Yeah, you can go to the takedown Tesla or Tesla
takedown and see where they're doing stuff and they're going
to take stuff down, and it's all basically based on
emotion and the people that they they're threatening people. If
you drive a Tesla, you better watch out. If you

(01:34:34):
are thinking about buying a Tesla, you better give it
back or not even change your mind. Now you're better.
It's just insane, it is. It's first of all, it's
not healthy. I don't get that emotionally charged. My mom
and I are very much like that. This is my
little sister's wedding this weekend, and my mom and I

(01:34:59):
are the aaron. Obviously she's actually my niece, but my
mother's adopted her so help raise her. Lover's married the
best guy in the world. This guy's just awesome because
he puts up with her. She's a lot, I'll tell
you that right now. And my little brother, Dakota, a
little special but love him to death. Tears in his

(01:35:21):
eyes right and a bunch of people had tears in
his eyes. Look at my mom. My mom goes Dakota's
crying like what it was, and I start laughing. But
it's just because it's not who we are. We're not
those emotional people. So when I see people get overly emotional,
especially over stuff that's ridiculous, like sell your tesla and

(01:35:43):
get rid of your stock or else. And if you
don't believe me, I'm gonna play this guy for you.
He's about a minute and a half long. Ah, We'll
get through as much as we can. I'm just gonna
say this, He's never not been angry. He's been picked
on his whole life and for good reason. And yes,
low Ti.

Speaker 34 (01:36:04):
You need to sell your tesla. I'm not going to
warrant you again.

Speaker 2 (01:36:09):
Okay.

Speaker 34 (01:36:10):
Those of us in the resistance are not going to
stand for these hate mobiles driving around providing free advertising
for the man who has subverted our democracy and spread
disinformation and hate speech and supported the fascist takeover of
her government.

Speaker 2 (01:36:30):
First of all, hate mobiles. Huh, what's Batman driving? Quick
Robin to the hate mobile just drives around just yelling
racial slurs at everything. Oh, I got continue, sir, you
make me laugh.

Speaker 34 (01:36:48):
And who has taken the food from the mouths of
millions of people around the world by destroying USAID and
has betray Vladimir Zelensky.

Speaker 4 (01:37:00):
That is how serious this is.

Speaker 34 (01:37:03):
And you continue to pre order these Tueslas, you continue
to drive and charge these cars. They're making this man
Elon Musk more and more powerful, infinitely powerful.

Speaker 2 (01:37:18):
That is not okay, but it is because the beauty
of who we are and what we're about in this
country is we have the opportunity through capitalism to choose
to do something out to something. Your choice is let's
destroy Elon, and that you're right. Other people's choices. I
want to purchase it. But your goal is to destroy

(01:37:41):
Elon because you think he's bad and he doesn't add value. Okay, whatever,
but you're also threatening or else you better do this
or else. That's different. That's different there, sir. And by
the way, you're not the person based on that sweater
you're wearing. Just say or else to anybody.

Speaker 34 (01:37:58):
It's not okay. We are sending a Tesla stock to
zero zero Elon, We're sending your company to zero. This
time next year, Tesla might not even exist. That is
how serious we are about resisting this company and showing
the world what it means to support Tesla. This is

(01:38:24):
about good versus evil. These cars are not okay.

Speaker 2 (01:38:32):
Actually I was in my brother's car this weekend. They're
more than okay. They're awesome And I don't really care
about an electric car was never something to interest me,
and it still doesn't. By the way, they're awesome cars,
but I don't care whatever. I don't like to be honestly,
I'm not impressed by cars.

Speaker 4 (01:38:47):
Period.

Speaker 2 (01:38:48):
I don't care. There's nothing about that. It's never been
my jam. It just hasn't don't. I don't care. But
it's the Elon. You better watch your ouse. We're gonna
get you. It's like, oh, okay, no, you don't even understand, dude,
We're come get you and we're gonna make sure you
know that we're part of the resistance. Okay. It is

(01:39:14):
just amazing. I'm like, does this guy for real? This
guy can't be real. Like I keep looking and thinking
to myself, I feel like he's a parody. Yet when
I see him, I realize he's not a parody. He's
actually real. No, Elon would come for you, and when
we get there, we're gonna make sure you know that

(01:39:36):
we totally mean business. Just incredible people. Uh. I saw
one stick and says I bought this before Elon went crazy.
Just amazing. And you know what, are you gonna be?
Like Alyssa Milano remember when a Lista Milano went out

(01:39:56):
And she's like, I'm gonna get rid of my car
because Elon's bad. It needs a fastiest And I got
myself a new Volkswagen EV and the people are like, hey, hey,
you guys do realize that Volkswagens were actually started by
the Nazis themselves. Just want to point that out right,

(01:40:17):
it's the people's car. Just putting that out there so
farfec Neugan youah three two three four twenty three acts

other things. A lot of stuff we're gonna get to

we'll wrap it up straight.

Speaker 35 (01:42:23):
Ahead, fronting with scissors sounds great compared to.

Speaker 2 (01:42:37):
This, say, if you're extra tired today, it sucks because
of the time change, because somewhere along the line somebody
thought this was a great idea. You and I both
know it's insane. It drives everybody crazy. But alas it
is here, and Trump is not saying or doing anything
about it because he wants it to be eighty twenty.
Right now it's fifty to fifty. I don't do fifty

(01:42:58):
to fifty. I do eighty twenty. And so he's going
to let Congress try to sort this thing out, not
push somebody to one side or another. Because you have
some people out there who say, I don't want my
kids going to school in the morning when it's dark,
and you've got other people out there going, hey, wait
a minute, I go outside and there's sunlight. I want
to keep this after a long day's work. I like

(01:43:19):
the fact that there's some sun Oh my god, what
do we do Becuz there are issues, at least for
the first week or so when it comes to daylight
savings time as we spring forward.

Speaker 24 (01:43:30):
Yeah, so unless you live in Hawaii or Arizona, you're
going to be failing a little bit on Monday morning.
We know that daylight savings is a shift in the sunlight,
and the sunlight is a real big queue for our
circadian rhythm, that inner clock in our body that controls
cellular processes, bodily functions. And you would wonder could that
one hour shift really affect so much? Well, yes it can.
The research shows that actually there's an increase in heart attack, stroke,

(01:43:53):
blood pressure, heart rate, inflammatory markers, hospital visits, and missed
medical appointments. There's also a decrease in alert poor mental health,
and general awakeness feeling of cognition. And then we think
about things like increases in fatal traffic accidents. We've seen
that go up by about six percent, even stock market volatility.
So the list goes on and on.

Speaker 2 (01:44:14):
On and on and on and on and on and
on and on. It's not great. I mean it's only
for a week. It's not like this goes on continuously
like four months or an hour. Like, dude, people can't
stop crashing their cars. We got to do something. But
I like the sunshine, I do I love the sunshine,

(01:44:36):
but it does you know, like if you're going to school,
you don't want to go to school when it is
dark out, So I get that. At the same time,
I like that it stays lighter. Didn't think you get
out of work. There's something about depressing this when you
know you go to work and it's still dark and

(01:44:59):
you come out and it's dark. There's just something about that.

Speaker 24 (01:45:02):
So you wonder what is the good side right while
walking out of the office and seeing some sunlight. But
most Americans would not like to have daylight savings. In fact,
even the American Medical Association and American Academy of Sleep
Medicine have recommended that we shift to a fixed standard
time because of the public safety and health rixs.

Speaker 2 (01:45:20):
What do we do? What do we do? Is it
North Korea tried to shift it thirty minutes because that's
not wacky, So what do we do? Tell us, how
do we fix.

Speaker 24 (01:45:34):
This so we can start to shift our bedtime a
little bit earlier, So move it up by fifteen to
twenty minutes. The day after and the few days after
Daylight Savings, get out, be in the sunlight early in
the morning. Avoid that excess alcohol or caffeine before bedtime
and screen so good sleep hygiene. And then generally, you know,
we think about napping as maybe being a bad thing,
but that first week, you can take some naps as

(01:45:55):
long as they're earlier in the day, Michael of before
two pm, about twenty minutes. And if you have controller reschedule,
maybe don't schedule important meetings or events in those first
few days of the week.

Speaker 2 (01:46:05):
All right, I'm not going to do that then, So
if you guys heard that, if you've got something scheduled
for today, cancel it and then use daylight savings as
the reason not to do it. I don't sleep much,
so it's not a big deal. But I will say
this week this weekend was a little tougher because we
flew to essentially La and then we were there for

(01:46:28):
like two and a half days or so because my
little sister got married. So it was like the minute
we got there, we were doing this, and then we
were doing that, and then the wedding, and the next
day Jack had hockey and then we had to drive
at the burbank and then we had to get up
at like three in the morning to get to our flight.
So we're all kind of whoo wobbly. For me, I
don't sleep, so it's not a huge deal. But for
a lot of people, I understand why it is. So

(01:46:52):
I don't know what the answer is. For me, I
like it later in the day, but that's because I'm
a little selfish and I like to go out and
play golf bit later in the day. But kids in school,
I totally understand that as well. It's it's it's a
lot to deal with. It is. Let me know how
you feel. Tweet at US text to Program three two, three, five,

(01:47:12):
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show.
Is your Twitter? Tweet at as text to program. We
have an issue with ships in the ocean. Ships in
the ocean smash into each other.

Speaker 36 (01:47:24):
The US flagged oil tanker and a Portuguese container ship
are collided, and we've seen some images that show what
appears to be two vessels on fire and thick black
smoke billowing into the air.

Speaker 2 (01:47:36):
That's right, Uh, Injuries, deaths not quite sure yet.

Speaker 36 (01:47:40):
We don't know if there have been any injuries. We
do know, however, that at least thirty people have been rescued,
and no information at this point on how these ships
may have collided, but we know that the Coastguard has
sent a rescue boats, at least one helicopter and a
plane to the scene, which is about four hours from London.

(01:48:02):
I'm in a car.

Speaker 2 (01:48:04):
It's it's kind of interesting to watch the like, how
did this happen? I'm like, was it foggy? What was
it like? Because it's a pretty big ocean, you almost
feel like you gotta try. I don't like that ship.
I want to go hit it. Are you sure I am?
I'm positive. I'm positive its mean to me and it
said something horrible and now I want to go after it. Oh,

(01:48:24):
I don't think you should go after this ship. Well,
I think it made a face at me. There's a
lot of smoke coming out though. It's an ugly situation
to say the least. Three two, three, five, three eight
