Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. Michael
Very Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
We won't take a lot of hate. We're gonna be
sued every day, numerous times. I think you will see
the left try to control the media. They're going to
show the first crying female, first crying child and say
how inhumane we are.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Would say that I'm tull story. Only people who are
getting detected children. I don't understand. They're so sorry. I
wish I could do something that they can't. I don't
(01:07):
know what to do. He'll try and be there, but.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
They won't talk about three hundred and forty thousand children
that they've failed to take care of.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
They're not going to talk about.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
The young women who have been murdered in this country
to answer criminal cartels. They're not going to talk about
the hundreds of angel moms and dads who bury their children.
Want to talk about family separation, they bury their children.
Their children were killed by a member of a member
of criminal cartel where someone's not supposed to be here.
They'll tell one side of the story. They'll try to vilifies,
(01:44):
but they're not going to stop it.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
I can do. All I can do is crap I
am often asked a question I can do. What What
in the world is going on with the Democrats? Why
(02:11):
do they keep putting bad candidates forward? It is an interesting,
very interesting question. Before I answer that, see an N
contributor Brad Todd was talking about how the Democrats love
(02:36):
awful candidates like Tall Rico, like Platner. But in the
state of Maine, the current senator that Plattner is running against,
she's not exactly a stalwart Republican. It's Susan Collins. She's
everything that the Democrats and the media claim a Republican
(03:00):
should be, not is, but should be. Susan Collins is
half Democrat, maybe more. She's the Democrats dream. She is
the least offensive Republican to Democrats based on how she votes,
based on her actual actions, which makes you wonder why
(03:22):
is it so important that they get her out. Here's
what he said, that choice is a choice.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
And on June ninth, Grand platter is going to run
against the governor of Maine, someone has an incredible.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Record who can't raise a nickel.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Because Democrats want someone who's crazy and awful, They're attracted
to Platnir because he's awful. It's not a hesitation. It's
what they want. Main primary voters like the awful their
fact think about what the general election is about.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Though.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Susan Collins voted for the Affordable Care Act under Barack Obama.
She voted for the Stimulus Act under Barack Obama. She
voted to confirm Sonya Sotomayor and Alanta Kagan.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
She is as centrist a person.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
In the United States Senate as you can find and Democrats.
So if they prefer a Nazi desk squad tattoo sexting
with a bunch of other people person over that, then
they've really jumped the shark.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Well, she's a centrist who voted to confirm justices who
overturned Roe v.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Wade. So to call her.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Little is a little you know, I'm not so short.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I don't call her a centrist because I believe the
American people are further to the right. Then the media
wants you to believe. They don't want that. They don't
want you to think that you're normal. They want you
to think that you're out of touch, you're weird, you're
(04:44):
a right winger. Oh, you just came home from war
and you're a white male who's pro life. Then you
are the single greatest threat to this country because you're
going to blow up an abortion clinic, just came home
from war, and you're a white male combat veteran. You're
(05:06):
the single most dangerous person to this country. This is
what Donas Shalela said. Democrats have said this repeatedly. You
are the single most dangerous threat to this country, a
domestic terrorist in waiting because you don't trust the government
and you're going to blow something up and burn something down.
We need to keep a close eye on you. And
that's all of you. On January six. I want to
(05:26):
put you in prison forever. That's how they think, that's
their belief, that's what they keep projecting. They want you scared.
You know. Saddam Hussein governed Iraq from a minority party,
a very small group of people who held control over
(05:47):
the centers of power. The Saudi Royal family is a
very Saudi Arias, very tribal place. They are a very
very small minority, the royal family, and they live in
fear of a revolution, and so what they do is
basically pay a bribe to the public. Everything will be
(06:12):
free for you. Don't mess it up, don't storm the gates.
But history has told us you cannot buy off the people.
Eventually they'll get bored. Eventually all the free stuff will
(06:33):
no longer be enough. They will want power mankind always does.
They will want power over their own futures. You have
them living in a prison of your making. It's just
a nice it's club ved, but it's still a prison.
(06:53):
They still don't have control, they don't know the great
glories of victory of self determination, and eventually they'll take
you down for it. And that will happen there as well.
And that's that's true of so many countries where the
(07:15):
governing elite are actually governing a majority. They're governing the
majority with a minority because they have control. You know,
when the Germans came in and installed a puppet in
the Vishi Sua government and they they basically were controlling
(07:39):
France from Afar and so the French people were under
an external governmental occupation. So how did they do it.
They had a squad, a minority of people who would
turn you in if you were in any way doing
what they feared would happen, which is a revolution by
(08:01):
the majority. The Stazi in East Germany, it was widely
understood that the people hated the world they were living in.
How do we stop them from revolution? Well, we got
an elite, cracked team keeping our eye. This is the
(08:22):
Michael Berries Show. Let's call this segment telling the truth
an old fashioned telling the truth, saying things that are
not normally said. I really enjoy being around old people.
I go visit my dad at the Old Folks Home
all time, and one of the things I like is
(08:43):
that old people, if you ask them a question, they'll
tell you the truth. Hey do I look fat in thiss?
You really do? Hey? What do you think of miss Johnson?
She talks too much. She's always trying to impress people.
If she wasn't worried about that, maybe people would like
her more. Wow, Okay, I like it. A fellow named
John David Klein worked at Channel five News back in
(09:05):
the eighties. He sat down with the owner of a
local candy store and he asked the man how he
liked owning a candy store. And the old man answered,
rather honestly, what it was like to deal with the
general public. And you might think, well, that old grump,
(09:27):
you never owned a store, You never had to deal
with the general public, because you'd understand some of what
he says.
Speaker 6 (09:33):
But let's go back to the old fashioned candy store.
Chief Venieria has run his store since he retired as
a longshoreman ten years ago. What's the nicest thing about
owning a place like ten It's a headache.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
What's a headache?
Speaker 6 (09:47):
Oh, I said, what's the nicest thing about it?
Speaker 7 (09:49):
Nothing nice about it?
Speaker 6 (09:51):
Well, what about all this, you know, the wonderfulness of
meeting the neighbors and being this sort of you know,
part of the.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Community called bold.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
There's too many headaches that people come in. They're crazy
when they come in. They don't know what they're not
awake in the morning. They come in and they don't
know what they're doing in the morning.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
And so what do they do.
Speaker 7 (10:10):
They come in, they leave you a ten dollar bill.
They've walked out. You have to call them back. They
let them know what they do half asleep in the morning.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
There, So this is not a terrific life running a
candy store.
Speaker 7 (10:22):
Why don't you buy it?
Speaker 6 (10:23):
So if you're thinking of buying that candy store when
you retire, che says, Miami Beach is better, isn't it.
Sortin I'm John David, the line the channel Live News.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Now minds you if your immediate reaction, as most people do,
is to say, yeah, things have gotten really bad. This
was in the early eighties. Dealing with people in and
of itself, it's a real challenge. And when you're a
(10:53):
retail establishment, you don't get to choose who comes in.
Every time I see one of these some thug or
some big fat woman who goes into a fast food store,
fast food restaurant and they forget her catch up, or
she orders the supersize number five and they're out of
(11:16):
fries and she loses her mind at them and begins
throwing things and tearing the place up. And you think
to yourself, why would I want to do that? And
then it crosses your mind that we're really lucky that
there are people who want to do that, because you
(11:38):
wouldn't want to do it, and I can assure you
I don't want to do it. And then you notice
how many industries now are dominated by first generation immigrants.
And a lot of people will say, ah, that's because
you don't need to make excuses. There's money available a
(11:58):
small business association loan if you want to get into that.
You want to get into convenience business. You want to
get into convenience store business, the highest rate of armed robbery.
You want to get into that. You want to staff
that thing twenty four hours a day. Are you willing
to get into the hot sheet motel business and live
in the back and twenty four hours a day when
(12:20):
the ding dang comes, you get up while you're asleep,
You get up, walk to the front. You don't know
what you're going to see. And there's a couple ready
to pay you whatever for an hour, and you take
their money and give them their key, and hope they
don't go in there and burn the place down. Hope
they're not using meth in there. These are very unpleasant truths.
(12:42):
I told you. This segment is the unpleasant truth segment
Part two. Adam Carolla posted a video of a woman
with advice for other young women looking for a husband.
She says, and I love this. Don't marry a rich man.
Marry a man can fix things. Well, I'd love to
(13:03):
say I'm glad my wife made this decision, but I
can't fix anything. I got to hire somebody to fix
most everything. And people will send me emails like I'm
a bad person. Now you wouldn't have known that if
I didn't tell you that. I'm giving credit to guys
who can fix things. Here's what it was said. Forget
marrying rich.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Marry the man who can fix the garbage disposal at
ten pm.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
On a Tuesday night.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
That's generational wealth in this economy, because nothing will ubble
you faster than realizing that people will charge you five
hundred dollars just to show up. They don't even fix
the issue. They'll stand there with their little clipboard.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Like, yep, that's going to be expensive.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Meanwhile, a handy husband here's a weird noise at night
and activates like a sleeper agent. You don't even have
to explain the issue. They'll just hear a noise and
go yep. That's the motor. A man who knows how
to solve problems priceless. Marry the man who looks at
your Pinterest board and says.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
Yeah, I can build that.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
Nothing hotter than a man who knows his way around
the hardware store. People are stopping him and asking him
for project advice. That's why I laugh when people say
Mary for money. No, Marry's somebody who refuses to pay
somebody else for labor, because in this economy, the sexiest
thing that a man can say is don't worry, I
got it.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
It's interesting, isn't it, because there are two types of
men on each extreme. There's a was it Thurston howel lovey,
oh lovey Thurston couldn't do anything, And then you've got
the guy who can do everything that maybe he messes
(14:41):
some stuff up, but he is unafraid. If you got
a guy who can fix things and does fix things
and keeps the house rolling so that anything's broken, he
gets up even if he doesn't want a fool with
it at that time, and gets his hands dirty to
fix it. That's the kind of thing we should be
(15:02):
grateful for. And since we're on the subject, fellas, if
you got a woman can cook, I hope I hope
you are expressing your gratitude to her for that, because
I will tell you she is worth her with weight
(15:23):
in rubies. My wife hadn't cooked a lot when she
came to this country, but she knew food was important
to me. She knew my grandmother was the gold standard.
So she got right up under my grandmother's arm pit
and my grandmother's little trailer. My grandmother couldn't even pronounce
her name. Her name is Nandata or Nandita as most
white people would say n a Nda. My grandmother called
(15:47):
her Donita because she couldn't pronounce it correctly. But she
was so flattered that some woman wanted to learn how
to do what she does. And my wife would say,
can you give me the recipe for that hot water cornbread? Say, Donnita,
I don't have no recipe. I just do it. So
myie said, well, let's do it together, and she made notes,
(16:07):
and now I have recipes on everything my grandmother did
because she never wrote anything, now, Lord knows she It
was a pinch of this and a dash of that,
like Juliet Child without the kool as You've got. Michael
Barry show came across an interview. It was on Jay
(16:32):
Shetty's show s H E T T Y. It popped up.
I never know why. The algorithm said it was something
I would be interested in, and I was. And it's
of a woman named doctor Vonda Wright, and they talked
about how lifestyle can rejuvenate your aging cells. A lot
(16:54):
of people are looking for the fountain of youth. Always
have been El Dorado or wherever else it is. Here
was the quote that got my attention.
Speaker 5 (17:03):
Are plury punk stem cells, which we have not only
from our bone marrow, but in every cell, are actually
less young. That thing said, lifestyle can rejuvenate those, And
we've done our own we've done this part of my research.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Having done those studies, let's play that again. I am
very mindful that our medium is audio only. And if
you do what I do, which is glance out the
window while I'm playing something, or look in the rear
(17:40):
view mirror, or looked down to see if the air
conditioning's on in your truck or your SUV, you don't
hear exactly what was said. And I know this because
people say, hey, you said that, and I said nothing
of the sword, but because they've missed context, then I've
said exactly the opposite often. But anyway, so I want
(18:03):
you to listen carefully to this because I think this is,
if true, it's important to our lives, and it's a
launching point for a conversation. Go ahead.
Speaker 5 (18:10):
Are plury punk stem cells, which we have not only
from our bone marrow but in every cell, are actually
less young. I think said lifestyle can rejuvenate those, and
we've done our owns. We've done this part of my
research having done those studies.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
And then they went through a five point health initiative.
And I like things. I like lists, I like things numbered,
I like them simple. I read a lot about health
and wellness, and some people don't. Some people see that
as silly and somebody and that's fine, it's fine. I'm
not asking you buy in. But I like to share
(18:48):
things I learn, and I like to challenge myself. Some
of it's bunk. I get that, some mispaid for I
get that. But here were the five tenants of aging
and health, and I'm sharing them with you now. Number one,
walking is not just exercise. It's literally medicine for your brain.
(19:12):
Forget calories. When you walk, you're doing something far more interesting.
You're changing how your brain works. Movement pumps blood to
your brain, keeps it healthy, and actually helps protect your
thinking and memory as you get older. How you move
really does shape how you think. That was the point
(19:34):
of the five that got my attention, because almost everybody
can walk, even if it's slow, and you will find
that if you go for a walk after dinner, if
you live in a safe neighborhood, you live out in
the country, even if you just walk from your house
up to the road and back, what a difference that makes.
(19:59):
And there showing through studies it's not just a question
of burning a few calories. It is firing up your
engine and hitting a gas pedal revenant for long. It
turns out that that's a good thing for your brain.
That evening walk not a job. Nobody's gonna ask you
(20:22):
a job. That's more of a commitment. Just literally put
on your house slippers and stroll outside and go for
a ten twenty thirty minute walk. It's a great time.
Meet your friend next door, gossip doesn't matter. Get that
brain moving. Number two, your muscles are basically a longevity
(20:49):
organ you have been ignoring. Most of us only think
about muscle when we want to look good. But here's
what's wild. Muscle tissue works metabolically just like your heart
or liver. Ramon it helps keep your blood sugar stable.
Ramon supports your bones, keeps you moving freely, and literally
(21:11):
changes how your body ages. That's why once you hit
thirty five, getting outside to walk and doing some strength
training it's not vanity, its maintenance. Yeah, give you a
long what I didn't say it to give you a
long organ, did I literally changes? Oh? My goodness. Well,
(21:34):
in any case, one thing I learned is that if
you will strengthen your body, just some basic weights so
don't have to be big weights, and you will convert
some fat to muscle. I'm not talking about showing off,
and you know I'm not asking you to be schwartzeneiggor
(21:56):
That muscle will burn more calories. That is your metabolic rate.
It will metabolize what you eat, which means a person
with they don't look any different, but one has tone
and the other one doesn't. The person with tone has
more muscles. I'm not talking about big bulky muscles that
(22:18):
nobody's asking you to do.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
That.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
That person's body will take the same amount of calories
as the guy beside him and burn through those faster
and more thoroughly. We are at a point in time
in the life cycle of our planet, of our people,
of our civilization, of humanity, where we have more food
(22:46):
than we need. Most of history was trying to find
a way to meet our food needs. We got so
good at it that we have way more food than
we need, way more available, way more accessible. That lasts
way longer. That is way cheaper relative to our wages. No, oh, Michael,
(23:08):
it's expensive. It's not so expensive that you don't buy
too much of it. We'd like it to be less expensive.
But by historical standards, maybe you've not studied. People were
part of why people were lean. Now they're putting different
things in our food. It's true because they didn't have
the money. They didn't have the money to eat like
(23:31):
we do. Many people can eat more food than their
body can handle, which means they packet on his fat.
Because relatively speaking, it is cheap if you will do
some basic basic strength training low weights, not even high
(23:58):
rep don't even have to break a sweat. You can
start very easily and you don't have to do much.
Building strength is building health. There are a lot of
old wives tell a lot of things that people are
holding on to. Oh, that's vanity. No, No, it's much
(24:21):
more important to you than going for a job, which
was the old notion of how you're being Changing the
name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of
michael Berry, which has a beautiful way. We're to number
three in our list, and number one was walking is
(24:45):
not just exercise. It is literally medicine for your brain.
Number two, your muscles are basically a longevity organ Oh,
I see where you got that that you have been ignoring.
Build your muscles. Don't have to do bodybuilding. You never
worked out before. That's okay. Just lift small amounts of
(25:07):
weight a few times. It would get easier and easier.
Number three, belly fat is a message, not just a measurement.
It's easy to treat belly fat as a cosmetic problem,
but it's actually your body signaling something deeper, things like
chronic inflammation, prolonged stress, muscle loss. Here's the thing. Your
(25:33):
body doesn't change because you guilt it into changing. It
changes when you create the conditions where it actually feels
safe enough to let go. It is hoarding that fat,
burn that visceral fat. And they're increasingly coming to the
(25:54):
conclusion that what we used to refer to as a
dad bought beer belly is not a beer belly. Well,
it is in a sense in that way. It is
inflammation of your liver, and that's gonna lead to chronic
liver disease sooner rather than later, and that's going to
cause you all sorts of problems because the liver is
(26:16):
what detoxifies your blood. When the liver cannot operate because
it's clogged up, like a drain that's clogged up and
no water can go through. Now your toilet is stopping up.
Now you're going to have problems. It's also going to
mean you're gonna have brain fog in the afternoon. It's
going to mean you're gonna have all sorts of secondary,
(26:39):
downstream health problems. It's not that hard. Clean it up,
check it out. Drink less, I'll stop drinking. Just drink less.
Eat less. You're not to stop eating, just eat less.
Add a little exercise. You don't have to run a marathon.
(27:00):
Most Americans lead a sedentary life. They don't move at all.
It's not that hard. Go for a walk, start with
ten minutes. First day you'll feel goofy. I saw an
interview with Jelly Roll. He'd gotten so big and lost
all his weight, and he said, the first day, I
think he went for a ten minute walk. He said,
I thought I was gonna die. I literally thought I
(27:20):
was gonna die. And before time, before long, he just
added more and more and more each day, pushing himself
a little further. I admire that Number four, bad sleep
is quietly aging you faster than almost anything else. You
can nail your morning routine, your diet, your supplements, but
(27:41):
if your nights are a mess, you're working against yourself.
Poor sleep throws off fat loss, makes emotional regulation harder,
and prevents your nervous system from repairing itself. There is
no shortcut around it. This is my biggest challenge. I
do ten days thirty days sober where I don't drink
(28:04):
it all. I can do that, and I do it
as a reset. I'll stop smoking for a week, two weeks,
a month, three months. I've done over a year for
smoking and drinking, just a reset when I start thinking
I'm doing too much of it. But getting to bed
early and getting a full night sleep, I do it
(28:25):
not every night, but I do it. But it is
my biggest challenge. I love to stay up really late
and read and prep for the next day and engage
on social media. As I'm reading things, I write things.
That is my happy time and I just have to
be more disciplined. Number five. Aging is not something that
(28:49):
just happens to you. This one's the big one. Aging
isn't passive. Every single day your body is taking notes
on how you move, how you sleep, what you eat,
how you breathe, how much stress you're carrying around. All
of that is actively telling your body what kind of
(29:09):
future to build. The body you're living in at sixty
or seventy, you're constructing it right now, and maybe the
most freeing way to think about it. Your body is
not a machine slowly breaking down. It's a living system
that constantly adapts to whatever you consistently give it. I
(29:32):
don't believe our bodies were built to live as long
as we do. I think that we've managed to live
as long as we do through medical advancement, through conquering
our the predators of the jungle, through plentiful food, through
(29:55):
more comfortable sleep, through you know, dealing with vitamin deficiencies.
I think all of those things have contributed mightily. But
at the end of the day, we're going to live
as a people as long as we are committed to
(30:15):
living within reason, a long and healthy life. Look, Ben
Sas is going to get cancer and direly it's unfortunate.
Those things are going to happen. We're gonna have car wrecks,
We're gonna have accidents, We're gonna have cancer and heart
attacks and stroke. But for the things you can do,
(30:38):
you don't have to live a non life. A lot
of people don't make any effort because they let the
great be the enemy of the good. Well, I'm not
gonna be one of those people that's obsessed with my health,
so I'm going to do nothing. And my answer to
that is yep, what about your wife? Kids? They want
(31:02):
dad around. It is the ultimate and selfish to say, well,
I'm I'm just gonna do what I'm gonna do when
it's my time. Well, how about this. If you go
walking out into the middle of the freeway, it's gonna
be your time sooner than if you don't walk in
the middle of the freeway. Hey, what's he doing? That
(31:24):
guy's walking in the middle of a busy freeway. Well,
when it's my time. No, I think you're contributing mightily
to when it's your time. So that's your health check
for today. And if you missed any of those. The
(31:44):
guy's site is JA shetty s H E T T Y,
and the five items were Walking isn't just exercise, it's
literally medicine for your brain. There are a lot of
our listeners who go for an evening walk. My father
the law went for an evening walk, and I always
found that to be such a civilized thing. After we
(32:05):
would have dinner, we'd go out and go for a walk.
He always lived on a military base, so it's very safe.
We could walk around in a military base and he
would talk and I would talk. We talk about bullets,
and it was such a wonderful time. Number two, your
muscles are basically a longevity organ you've been ignoring. Strengthen
your muscles just a little bit. Get a three pound weight,
(32:27):
get a five pound weight, lift it three times. Do
a set of three of those tomorrow. Do four build up.
Number three belly fat is a message, not just a measurement.
Number four bad sleep is quietly aging you faster that
almost anything else. And number five, aging isn't something that
(32:48):
just happens to you.
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. Michael
Very Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
We won't take a lot of hate. We're gonna be
sued every day, numerous times. I think you will see
the left try to control the media. They're going to
show the first crying female, first crying child and say
how inhumane we are.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Would say that I'm tull story. Only people who are
getting detected children. I don't understand. They're so sorry. I
wish I could do something that they can't. I don't
(01:07):
know what to do. He'll try and be there, but.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
They won't talk about three hundred and forty thousand children
that they've failed to take care of.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
They're not going to talk about.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
The young women who have been murdered in this country
to answer criminal cartels. They're not going to talk about
the hundreds of angel moms and dads who bury their children.
Want to talk about family separation, they bury their children.
Their children were killed by a member of a member
of criminal cartel where someone's not supposed to be here.
They'll tell one side of the story. They'll try to vilifies,
(01:44):
but they're not going to stop it.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
I can do. All I can do is crap I
am often asked a question I can do. What What
in the world is going on with the Democrats? Why
(02:11):
do they keep putting bad candidates forward? It is an interesting,
very interesting question. Before I answer that, see an N
contributor Brad Todd was talking about how the Democrats love
(02:36):
awful candidates like Tall Rico, like Platner. But in the
state of Maine, the current senator that Plattner is running against,
she's not exactly a stalwart Republican. It's Susan Collins. She's
everything that the Democrats and the media claim a Republican
(03:00):
should be, not is, but should be. Susan Collins is
half Democrat, maybe more. She's the Democrats dream. She is
the least offensive Republican to Democrats based on how she votes,
based on her actual actions, which makes you wonder why
(03:22):
is it so important that they get her out. Here's
what he said, that choice is a choice.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
And on June ninth, Grand platter is going to run
against the governor of Maine, someone has an incredible.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Record who can't raise a nickel.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Because Democrats want someone who's crazy and awful, They're attracted
to Platnir because he's awful. It's not a hesitation. It's
what they want. Main primary voters like the awful their
fact think about what the general election is about.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Though.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Susan Collins voted for the Affordable Care Act under Barack Obama.
She voted for the Stimulus Act under Barack Obama. She
voted to confirm Sonya Sotomayor and Alanta Kagan.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
She is as centrist a person.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
In the United States Senate as you can find and Democrats.
So if they prefer a Nazi desk squad tattoo sexting
with a bunch of other people person over that, then
they've really jumped the shark.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Well, she's a centrist who voted to confirm justices who
overturned Roe v.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Wade. So to call her.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Little is a little you know, I'm not so short.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I don't call her a centrist because I believe the
American people are further to the right. Then the media
wants you to believe. They don't want that. They don't
want you to think that you're normal. They want you
to think that you're out of touch, you're weird, you're
(04:44):
a right winger. Oh, you just came home from war
and you're a white male who's pro life. Then you
are the single greatest threat to this country because you're
going to blow up an abortion clinic, just came home
from war, and you're a white male combat veteran. You're
(05:06):
the single most dangerous person to this country. This is
what Donas Shalela said. Democrats have said this repeatedly. You
are the single most dangerous threat to this country, a
domestic terrorist in waiting because you don't trust the government
and you're going to blow something up and burn something down.
We need to keep a close eye on you. And
that's all of you. On January six. I want to
(05:26):
put you in prison forever. That's how they think, that's
their belief, that's what they keep projecting. They want you scared.
You know. Saddam Hussein governed Iraq from a minority party,
a very small group of people who held control over
(05:47):
the centers of power. The Saudi Royal family is a
very Saudi Arias, very tribal place. They are a very
very small minority, the royal family, and they live in
fear of a revolution, and so what they do is
basically pay a bribe to the public. Everything will be
(06:12):
free for you. Don't mess it up, don't storm the gates.
But history has told us you cannot buy off the people.
Eventually they'll get bored. Eventually all the free stuff will
(06:33):
no longer be enough. They will want power mankind always does.
They will want power over their own futures. You have
them living in a prison of your making. It's just
a nice it's club ved, but it's still a prison.
(06:53):
They still don't have control, they don't know the great
glories of victory of self determination, and eventually they'll take
you down for it. And that will happen there as well.
And that's that's true of so many countries where the
(07:15):
governing elite are actually governing a majority. They're governing the
majority with a minority because they have control. You know,
when the Germans came in and installed a puppet in
the Vishi Sua government and they they basically were controlling
(07:39):
France from Afar and so the French people were under
an external governmental occupation. So how did they do it.
They had a squad, a minority of people who would
turn you in if you were in any way doing
what they feared would happen, which is a revolution by
(08:01):
the majority. The Stazi in East Germany, it was widely
understood that the people hated the world they were living in.
How do we stop them from revolution? Well, we got
an elite, cracked team keeping our eye. This is the
(08:22):
Michael Berries Show. Let's call this segment telling the truth
an old fashioned telling the truth, saying things that are
not normally said. I really enjoy being around old people.
I go visit my dad at the Old Folks Home
all time, and one of the things I like is
(08:43):
that old people, if you ask them a question, they'll
tell you the truth. Hey do I look fat in thiss?
You really do? Hey? What do you think of miss Johnson?
She talks too much. She's always trying to impress people.
If she wasn't worried about that, maybe people would like
her more. Wow, Okay, I like it. A fellow named
John David Klein worked at Channel five News back in
(09:05):
the eighties. He sat down with the owner of a
local candy store and he asked the man how he
liked owning a candy store. And the old man answered,
rather honestly, what it was like to deal with the
general public. And you might think, well, that old grump,
(09:27):
you never owned a store, You never had to deal
with the general public, because you'd understand some of what
he says.
Speaker 6 (09:33):
But let's go back to the old fashioned candy store.
Chief Venieria has run his store since he retired as
a longshoreman ten years ago. What's the nicest thing about
owning a place like ten It's a headache.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
What's a headache?
Speaker 6 (09:47):
Oh, I said, what's the nicest thing about it?
Speaker 7 (09:49):
Nothing nice about it?
Speaker 6 (09:51):
Well, what about all this, you know, the wonderfulness of
meeting the neighbors and being this sort of you know,
part of the.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Community called bold.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
There's too many headaches that people come in. They're crazy
when they come in. They don't know what they're not
awake in the morning. They come in and they don't
know what they're doing in the morning.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
And so what do they do.
Speaker 7 (10:10):
They come in, they leave you a ten dollar bill.
They've walked out. You have to call them back. They
let them know what they do half asleep in the morning.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
There, So this is not a terrific life running a
candy store.
Speaker 7 (10:22):
Why don't you buy it?
Speaker 6 (10:23):
So if you're thinking of buying that candy store when
you retire, che says, Miami Beach is better, isn't it.
Sortin I'm John David, the line the channel Live News.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Now minds you if your immediate reaction, as most people do,
is to say, yeah, things have gotten really bad. This
was in the early eighties. Dealing with people in and
of itself, it's a real challenge. And when you're a
(10:53):
retail establishment, you don't get to choose who comes in.
Every time I see one of these some thug or
some big fat woman who goes into a fast food store,
fast food restaurant and they forget her catch up, or
she orders the supersize number five and they're out of
(11:16):
fries and she loses her mind at them and begins
throwing things and tearing the place up. And you think
to yourself, why would I want to do that? And
then it crosses your mind that we're really lucky that
there are people who want to do that, because you
(11:38):
wouldn't want to do it, and I can assure you
I don't want to do it. And then you notice
how many industries now are dominated by first generation immigrants.
And a lot of people will say, ah, that's because
you don't need to make excuses. There's money available a
(11:58):
small business association loan if you want to get into that.
You want to get into convenience business. You want to
get into convenience store business, the highest rate of armed robbery.
You want to get into that. You want to staff
that thing twenty four hours a day. Are you willing
to get into the hot sheet motel business and live
in the back and twenty four hours a day when
(12:20):
the ding dang comes, you get up while you're asleep,
You get up, walk to the front. You don't know
what you're going to see. And there's a couple ready
to pay you whatever for an hour, and you take
their money and give them their key, and hope they
don't go in there and burn the place down. Hope
they're not using meth in there. These are very unpleasant truths.
(12:42):
I told you. This segment is the unpleasant truth segment
Part two. Adam Carolla posted a video of a woman
with advice for other young women looking for a husband.
She says, and I love this. Don't marry a rich man.
Marry a man can fix things. Well, I'd love to
(13:03):
say I'm glad my wife made this decision, but I
can't fix anything. I got to hire somebody to fix
most everything. And people will send me emails like I'm
a bad person. Now you wouldn't have known that if
I didn't tell you that. I'm giving credit to guys
who can fix things. Here's what it was said. Forget
marrying rich.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Marry the man who can fix the garbage disposal at
ten pm.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
On a Tuesday night.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
That's generational wealth in this economy, because nothing will ubble
you faster than realizing that people will charge you five
hundred dollars just to show up. They don't even fix
the issue. They'll stand there with their little clipboard.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Like, yep, that's going to be expensive.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Meanwhile, a handy husband here's a weird noise at night
and activates like a sleeper agent. You don't even have
to explain the issue. They'll just hear a noise and
go yep. That's the motor. A man who knows how
to solve problems priceless. Marry the man who looks at
your Pinterest board and says.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
Yeah, I can build that.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
Nothing hotter than a man who knows his way around
the hardware store. People are stopping him and asking him
for project advice. That's why I laugh when people say
Mary for money. No, Marry's somebody who refuses to pay
somebody else for labor, because in this economy, the sexiest
thing that a man can say is don't worry, I
got it.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
It's interesting, isn't it, because there are two types of
men on each extreme. There's a was it Thurston howel lovey,
oh lovey Thurston couldn't do anything, And then you've got
the guy who can do everything that maybe he messes
(14:41):
some stuff up, but he is unafraid. If you got
a guy who can fix things and does fix things
and keeps the house rolling so that anything's broken, he
gets up even if he doesn't want a fool with
it at that time, and gets his hands dirty to
fix it. That's the kind of thing we should be
(15:02):
grateful for. And since we're on the subject, fellas, if
you got a woman can cook, I hope I hope
you are expressing your gratitude to her for that, because
I will tell you she is worth her with weight
(15:23):
in rubies. My wife hadn't cooked a lot when she
came to this country, but she knew food was important
to me. She knew my grandmother was the gold standard.
So she got right up under my grandmother's arm pit
and my grandmother's little trailer. My grandmother couldn't even pronounce
her name. Her name is Nandata or Nandita as most
white people would say n a Nda. My grandmother called
(15:47):
her Donita because she couldn't pronounce it correctly. But she
was so flattered that some woman wanted to learn how
to do what she does. And my wife would say,
can you give me the recipe for that hot water cornbread? Say, Donnita,
I don't have no recipe. I just do it. So
myie said, well, let's do it together, and she made notes,
(16:07):
and now I have recipes on everything my grandmother did
because she never wrote anything, now, Lord knows she It
was a pinch of this and a dash of that,
like Juliet Child without the kool as You've got. Michael
Barry show came across an interview. It was on Jay
(16:32):
Shetty's show s H E T T Y. It popped up.
I never know why. The algorithm said it was something
I would be interested in, and I was. And it's
of a woman named doctor Vonda Wright, and they talked
about how lifestyle can rejuvenate your aging cells. A lot
(16:54):
of people are looking for the fountain of youth. Always
have been El Dorado or wherever else it is. Here
was the quote that got my attention.
Speaker 5 (17:03):
Are plury punk stem cells, which we have not only
from our bone marrow, but in every cell, are actually
less young. That thing said, lifestyle can rejuvenate those, And
we've done our own we've done this part of my research.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Having done those studies, let's play that again. I am
very mindful that our medium is audio only. And if
you do what I do, which is glance out the
window while I'm playing something, or look in the rear
(17:40):
view mirror, or looked down to see if the air
conditioning's on in your truck or your SUV, you don't
hear exactly what was said. And I know this because
people say, hey, you said that, and I said nothing
of the sword, but because they've missed context, then I've
said exactly the opposite often. But anyway, so I want
(18:03):
you to listen carefully to this because I think this is,
if true, it's important to our lives, and it's a
launching point for a conversation. Go ahead.
Speaker 5 (18:10):
Are plury punk stem cells, which we have not only
from our bone marrow but in every cell, are actually
less young. I think said lifestyle can rejuvenate those, and
we've done our owns. We've done this part of my
research having done those studies.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
And then they went through a five point health initiative.
And I like things. I like lists, I like things numbered,
I like them simple. I read a lot about health
and wellness, and some people don't. Some people see that
as silly and somebody and that's fine, it's fine. I'm
not asking you buy in. But I like to share
(18:48):
things I learn, and I like to challenge myself. Some
of it's bunk. I get that, some mispaid for I
get that. But here were the five tenants of aging
and health, and I'm sharing them with you now. Number one,
walking is not just exercise. It's literally medicine for your brain.
(19:12):
Forget calories. When you walk, you're doing something far more interesting.
You're changing how your brain works. Movement pumps blood to
your brain, keeps it healthy, and actually helps protect your
thinking and memory as you get older. How you move
really does shape how you think. That was the point
(19:34):
of the five that got my attention, because almost everybody
can walk, even if it's slow, and you will find
that if you go for a walk after dinner, if
you live in a safe neighborhood, you live out in
the country, even if you just walk from your house
up to the road and back, what a difference that makes.
(19:59):
And there showing through studies it's not just a question
of burning a few calories. It is firing up your
engine and hitting a gas pedal revenant for long. It
turns out that that's a good thing for your brain.
That evening walk not a job. Nobody's gonna ask you
(20:22):
a job. That's more of a commitment. Just literally put
on your house slippers and stroll outside and go for
a ten twenty thirty minute walk. It's a great time.
Meet your friend next door, gossip doesn't matter. Get that
brain moving. Number two, your muscles are basically a longevity
(20:49):
organ you have been ignoring. Most of us only think
about muscle when we want to look good. But here's
what's wild. Muscle tissue works metabolically just like your heart
or liver. Ramon it helps keep your blood sugar stable.
Ramon supports your bones, keeps you moving freely, and literally
(21:11):
changes how your body ages. That's why once you hit
thirty five, getting outside to walk and doing some strength
training it's not vanity, its maintenance. Yeah, give you a
long what I didn't say it to give you a
long organ, did I literally changes? Oh? My goodness. Well,
(21:34):
in any case, one thing I learned is that if
you will strengthen your body, just some basic weights so
don't have to be big weights, and you will convert
some fat to muscle. I'm not talking about showing off,
and you know I'm not asking you to be schwartzeneiggor
(21:56):
That muscle will burn more calories. That is your metabolic rate.
It will metabolize what you eat, which means a person
with they don't look any different, but one has tone
and the other one doesn't. The person with tone has
more muscles. I'm not talking about big bulky muscles that
(22:18):
nobody's asking you to do.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
That.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
That person's body will take the same amount of calories
as the guy beside him and burn through those faster
and more thoroughly. We are at a point in time
in the life cycle of our planet, of our people,
of our civilization, of humanity, where we have more food
(22:46):
than we need. Most of history was trying to find
a way to meet our food needs. We got so
good at it that we have way more food than
we need, way more available, way more accessible. That lasts
way longer. That is way cheaper relative to our wages. No, oh, Michael,
(23:08):
it's expensive. It's not so expensive that you don't buy
too much of it. We'd like it to be less expensive.
But by historical standards, maybe you've not studied. People were
part of why people were lean. Now they're putting different
things in our food. It's true because they didn't have
the money. They didn't have the money to eat like
(23:31):
we do. Many people can eat more food than their
body can handle, which means they packet on his fat.
Because relatively speaking, it is cheap if you will do
some basic basic strength training low weights, not even high
(23:58):
rep don't even have to break a sweat. You can
start very easily and you don't have to do much.
Building strength is building health. There are a lot of
old wives tell a lot of things that people are
holding on to. Oh, that's vanity. No, No, it's much
(24:21):
more important to you than going for a job, which
was the old notion of how you're being Changing the
name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of
michael Berry, which has a beautiful way. We're to number
three in our list, and number one was walking is
(24:45):
not just exercise. It is literally medicine for your brain.
Number two, your muscles are basically a longevity organ Oh,
I see where you got that that you have been ignoring.
Build your muscles. Don't have to do bodybuilding. You never
worked out before. That's okay. Just lift small amounts of
(25:07):
weight a few times. It would get easier and easier.
Number three, belly fat is a message, not just a measurement.
It's easy to treat belly fat as a cosmetic problem,
but it's actually your body signaling something deeper, things like
chronic inflammation, prolonged stress, muscle loss. Here's the thing. Your
(25:33):
body doesn't change because you guilt it into changing. It
changes when you create the conditions where it actually feels
safe enough to let go. It is hoarding that fat,
burn that visceral fat. And they're increasingly coming to the
(25:54):
conclusion that what we used to refer to as a
dad bought beer belly is not a beer belly. Well,
it is in a sense in that way. It is
inflammation of your liver, and that's gonna lead to chronic
liver disease sooner rather than later, and that's going to
cause you all sorts of problems because the liver is
(26:16):
what detoxifies your blood. When the liver cannot operate because
it's clogged up, like a drain that's clogged up and
no water can go through. Now your toilet is stopping up.
Now you're going to have problems. It's also going to
mean you're gonna have brain fog in the afternoon. It's
going to mean you're gonna have all sorts of secondary,
(26:39):
downstream health problems. It's not that hard. Clean it up,
check it out. Drink less, I'll stop drinking. Just drink less.
Eat less. You're not to stop eating, just eat less.
Add a little exercise. You don't have to run a marathon.
(27:00):
Most Americans lead a sedentary life. They don't move at all.
It's not that hard. Go for a walk, start with
ten minutes. First day you'll feel goofy. I saw an
interview with Jelly Roll. He'd gotten so big and lost
all his weight, and he said, the first day, I
think he went for a ten minute walk. He said,
I thought I was gonna die. I literally thought I
(27:20):
was gonna die. And before time, before long, he just
added more and more and more each day, pushing himself
a little further. I admire that Number four, bad sleep
is quietly aging you faster than almost anything else. You
can nail your morning routine, your diet, your supplements, but
(27:41):
if your nights are a mess, you're working against yourself.
Poor sleep throws off fat loss, makes emotional regulation harder,
and prevents your nervous system from repairing itself. There is
no shortcut around it. This is my biggest challenge. I
do ten days thirty days sober where I don't drink
(28:04):
it all. I can do that, and I do it
as a reset. I'll stop smoking for a week, two weeks,
a month, three months. I've done over a year for
smoking and drinking, just a reset when I start thinking
I'm doing too much of it. But getting to bed
early and getting a full night sleep, I do it
(28:25):
not every night, but I do it. But it is
my biggest challenge. I love to stay up really late
and read and prep for the next day and engage
on social media. As I'm reading things, I write things.
That is my happy time and I just have to
be more disciplined. Number five. Aging is not something that
(28:49):
just happens to you. This one's the big one. Aging
isn't passive. Every single day your body is taking notes
on how you move, how you sleep, what you eat,
how you breathe, how much stress you're carrying around. All
of that is actively telling your body what kind of
(29:09):
future to build. The body you're living in at sixty
or seventy, you're constructing it right now, and maybe the
most freeing way to think about it. Your body is
not a machine slowly breaking down. It's a living system
that constantly adapts to whatever you consistently give it. I
(29:32):
don't believe our bodies were built to live as long
as we do. I think that we've managed to live
as long as we do through medical advancement, through conquering
our the predators of the jungle, through plentiful food, through
(29:55):
more comfortable sleep, through you know, dealing with vitamin deficiencies.
I think all of those things have contributed mightily. But
at the end of the day, we're going to live
as a people as long as we are committed to
(30:15):
living within reason, a long and healthy life. Look, Ben
Sas is going to get cancer and direly it's unfortunate.
Those things are going to happen. We're gonna have car wrecks,
We're gonna have accidents, We're gonna have cancer and heart
attacks and stroke. But for the things you can do,
(30:38):
you don't have to live a non life. A lot
of people don't make any effort because they let the
great be the enemy of the good. Well, I'm not
gonna be one of those people that's obsessed with my health,
so I'm going to do nothing. And my answer to
that is yep, what about your wife? Kids? They want
(31:02):
dad around. It is the ultimate and selfish to say, well,
I'm I'm just gonna do what I'm gonna do when
it's my time. Well, how about this. If you go
walking out into the middle of the freeway, it's gonna
be your time sooner than if you don't walk in
the middle of the freeway. Hey, what's he doing? That
(31:24):
guy's walking in the middle of a busy freeway. Well,
when it's my time. No, I think you're contributing mightily
to when it's your time. So that's your health check
for today. And if you missed any of those. The
(31:44):
guy's site is JA shetty s H E T T Y,
and the five items were Walking isn't just exercise, it's
literally medicine for your brain. There are a lot of
our listeners who go for an evening walk. My father
the law went for an evening walk, and I always
found that to be such a civilized thing. After we
(32:05):
would have dinner, we'd go out and go for a walk.
He always lived on a military base, so it's very safe.
We could walk around in a military base and he
would talk and I would talk. We talk about bullets,
and it was such a wonderful time. Number two, your
muscles are basically a longevity organ you've been ignoring. Strengthen
your muscles just a little bit. Get a three pound weight,
(32:27):
get a five pound weight, lift it three times. Do
a set of three of those tomorrow. Do four build up.
Number three belly fat is a message, not just a measurement.
Number four bad sleep is quietly aging you faster that
almost anything else. And number five, aging isn't something that
(32:48):
just happens to you.
