Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is deeper in the din with dangerous day. You know,
the perfect holiday trip might wedge your appetite for a
full vacation. But a perfect trip should be eleven days
and stay in Cleveland. That is, if you're from Buffalo.
So new report claims the perfect vacation last eleven days
is three hours from home. By the way, Cleveland's about

(00:20):
three hours from Buffalo. The perfect trip would also cost
you about eighty eight hundred dollars per person. Seems a
little high. That includes three hour flight, so even if
you're treating yourself, that's about eight hundred dollars a day.
Sixty three percent of people said they'd be looking for
somewhere with a beach, Fifty three percent want to enjoy
the great outdoors, forty three percent want to explore major

(00:41):
cities or historical locations, and thirty one percent like outdoor
tractions and landmarks. Of course, travel can be stressful, so
the perfect trip needs to be a situation where you
can completely relax and unwind and create new memories. I guess, like,
if you're from Buffalo, a rock and roll Hall of
Fame in Cleveland three hours from home, where would I go? Well,

(01:02):
it's almost three hours tom Night cabin, Let's do it deeper.
In the two It's National Sunscreen Day, which means you
might be just a little late if you're nursing his
sunburn from the weekend. Here's some sunscreen related stories making
the rounds online. A poll online asked if a stranger
at a beach asked you to rub sunscreen on their back,
would you do it? Thirty six percent said sure, and

(01:22):
sixty four percent said they'd decline. In the comments, people
scolded the no responders, saying his skin health is serious.
Others said they would if the person was attractive. I
would if the person was attractive and my wife wasn't there.
The pole did ask if they would do it if
they had asked a stranger to lather them up, and
how they'd feel if they got rejected because the stranger

(01:43):
didn't find them a hot. Now, Boomers and Gen Xers
maybe paying for the UV tanning salons and sun tanned
lotions of the eighties and nineties, but the Gen z
ers are lacks at skin to care too. In a survey,
half a Gen Z adults reported getting sunburnt last year,
and ten percent suffered burns bad enough to cause blisters.
It happened to me when I was a kid. It

(02:03):
was not fun. Twenty five percent of gen zs said
is worth looking great even it means looking worse and
suffering the consequences later, and more admit to prioritizing getting
a tan over protecting their skin now. Sunscreen is the
number one weapon against the battle of skin cancers, but
there can be bad extremes, including a forty eight year
woman in China who had a severe vitamin D deficiency

(02:26):
from excessive sunscreen use. She even broke a bone by
casually rolling over in bed. It wasn't just sunscreen. She'd
avoid going out in the sun altogether whenever possible, because
of her obsession of having fair skin. In a poll,
forty percent of people said they regularly wear sunscreen outside
during the summer, sixteen percent always, thirty two percent said

(02:47):
they'd slap it on some of the time. A twenty
five percent claim they'd never put on sunscreen. It's National
Sunscreen Day. Protect your skin. I want you back tomorrow.
