Speaker 4 (01:51):
Oh yeah, what condition condition?

Speaker 5 (01:58):
I will coup the smooth and the sundown shining in.
I found my mind in a brown paper peg within.
I tripped on a clouding fall of eight miles.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
High high, I told mine bag.

Speaker 5 (02:20):
On a jagged sky. I just dropped in to see
what condition my condition was in.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Yeah, yeah, my condition, my condition.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Welcome everybody to doctor Crippen's Natural Health Hours. It is
the twenty fourth of September and we are almost having.

Speaker 4 (02:53):
A freeze front blow through.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
It was ninety nine on my censor when I walked
in here before the sho show started.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
Ninety nine. We have really dropped. It is amazing.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
I'm thinking about getting out in my heavy Arley jacket. Anyway,
we are here broadcasting almost live from the Cypress Houston area.
In my case, Susie's somewhere at Harper's Valley, Pta. Steve
is somewhere in the Fredericksburg vicinities. Bill's halfway between here

(03:26):
and San Anton. We're not sure, but we're all here,
I think, and we're all gonna say hello real quick,
so Susie and Bill take it away.

Speaker 6 (03:36):
Susie, Hello, everyone, thank you for joining us. And by
the way, Doc at seventy four.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
All right, Bill.

Speaker 7 (03:48):
Thuty folks, Yeah, it's it's eighty seven here. I know
what's your problem up in Cyprus.

Speaker 3 (03:57):
You know, it's just a little hotter than hell, That's
all I can tell you.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
But it dropped all the way to ninety nine. So
what can I say. It's amazing.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
That's the one that's out in the sun, the real
temperature in the real world.

Speaker 4 (04:12):
My one on the front in the shade says eighty nine.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
So I guess if you walk halfway between the front
door and the back door, you can have five degrees
difference either way. All right, tonight we're going to talk
about your one cell thick gut lining on the small intestine,
large intestine, and this is what separates the gut from

(04:38):
the rest of the body and hopefully prevents a lot
of things. But before we get started, there's a couple
of little things. I have had a lot of friends
in my life that were police officers, and the most
of them old school. They came up when you said

(04:59):
protect and serve and peace officers, and they did not
believe in everybody being drug in and arrested so that
everybody could make money. But I have seen more than
my fair share of bad treatment by guys that should
have been acting different. And I wonder sometimes because the

(05:25):
guys I know, they never have any stories about stuff
like that. And even my mom had remarried and her
husband had been a Saint Louis cop, a Saint Louis
County cop, and then he worked for Budweiser Anheuser Busch
as a cop for them, and he actually worked at

(05:46):
August Bush's house as a personal cop, protecting the family.
So I'm I'm not understanding what's happened today. But there
doesn't seem to be usual respect. There doesn't seem to
be a thinking of peace officer.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
And public servant on some of these guys.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
And I've seen there's some lawyers that have posted some
stuff in the news and on social media. And today
everybody's got a camera on their phone, so they a
lot of these cops don't realize it's being recorded. And
I was so proud I met the deputy sheriff here
in my neighborhood, and I was talking to him and

(06:37):
I asked him, I said, we do a radio show,
and I'd like to know your response to this question.
Do you consider yourself peace officer, protect and serve R?
And I didn't even get to R finished and he
already said peace officer public servant.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
I said, wow, it's good to hear.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
But I have been places where the cops arrested this
young girl. She had wrote a check and it bounced.
She would have gladly paid it. Hell I would have
helped pay it. But I happened to witness all this,
and it was just heartbreaking that they threw her in
the back of that car and handcuffs.

Speaker 4 (07:25):
That'll teach you now you can't write a check no more.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
You're got handcuffs and we're going to run you to
jail where you got to get bailed out and everybody
makes money because you couldn't subtract or add or you
made a simple error in your checkbook and you wrote
a bad check. They didn't even give her a chance
to fix the problem. My buddies from the old days

(07:49):
would say, you'd tell them, hey, let's go take care
of your bad check, and that way they didn't go
to jail. But it seems a little bit more politically
corrupt higher up you get. And maybe a lot of
these guys weren't taught that.

Speaker 4 (08:04):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (08:05):
I've been around a lot of good ones, but I've
seen more in my fair share of bad. I saw
one time where a sergeant and his two deputies were
doing an arrest. They made the office manager cry. And
I was there and I saw this, and I asked him,

(08:26):
I said, is.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
This how you treat everybody? And he said, if you
knew the kind of people we dealt with.

Speaker 3 (08:35):
And I said, well, buddy, you're a public servant. Do
you remember peace officer and working for the people, not
giving orders and commands like you're above them. I said,
if this is how you treat people from what I
witnessed today, no wonder you have a problem and you
think everybody's bad. They don't want to be treated this

(08:58):
way and they don't deserve it. And so many times
I've heard some of these guys say, you're not listening
to my commands. Well, I'm sorry, but I don't think
that's right. What happened to mutual respect? You know, respect
is something that should be earned and if they respect

(09:18):
you and you respect.

Speaker 4 (09:19):
Them, things go pretty good.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
But it seems that we're obsessed today with throwing people
in jail because everybody makes money off of that, except you.
You get arrested and go to jail, you lose work,
you're embarrassed, you got to pay a bail bondsman, you
might have to go to court.

Speaker 4 (09:40):
It's a nightmare.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
But if you go back to how it used to
be public servant, peace officer, protect and serve. What a
great concept and people wouldn't have to fear what's happening today.
And I'm just so disappointed. And I've said this before,

(10:04):
but I'm gonna say it again. If you're a police officer,
or if you're a supervisor or a boss somewhere, before
you do something to somebody, ask yourself what I want
this done to my mom, my dad, my sister, my wife,

(10:26):
my girlfriend, my brother, myself. And if the answer is no,
slow down, take a breath and be respectful, and hopefully
that will bring respect to you and you can solve situations.
You can be a peace officer. But I see way

(10:47):
too much today. And one guy said that one of
the problems was they trained all these poor devils to
go to places.

Speaker 4 (10:57):
Like Iraq and fight.

Speaker 3 (11:01):
Door to door and a different kind of warfare. And
then they brought them home and hired.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
Them as cops.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
And also in our country now they hired a bunch
of cops who were illegal immigrants.

Speaker 4 (11:14):
That just sain't right. You break the.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
Law coming here, and then you get a gun and
a badge and go pull people over. And here, to me,
this is the saddest one of all. I ride a
motorcycle and the stupidest thing that I ever know about
is a guy got pulled over by a cop on

(11:37):
a motorcycle an issue a ticket for not wearing a
safety belt. Now you're on a motorcycle, you don't have
no seat belt, you don't have any protection. They're not
judging the window tint of your shield. But to me,

(11:58):
no cop ever ride a motorcycle. That's just wrong. Motorcycles
are supposed to be for fun and enjoyment and a
different lifestyle maybe, but not to write tickets to somebody
for not wearing a.

Speaker 4 (12:13):
Seatbelt when you're on a motorcycle.

Speaker 3 (12:15):
I mean, that's some of our ironic stuff right there,
all right, before we jump into the gut stuff.

Speaker 4 (12:21):
Suzzy anything.

Speaker 6 (12:23):
Yeah, I just wanted to look up and see if
the statistics had changed much on police that admit to
abusing their partners, wives or girlfriends. And that's forty percent.
So I happen to know a really good man here

(12:45):
in Gillespie County and he had quite a few years
experience within the police departments, and he wanted to apply again,
and he was literally told after the psychological testing portion

(13:07):
that he was too nice and his morals ran too deep.
They purposely hire that.

Speaker 7 (13:16):
Sad.

Speaker 6 (13:17):
Okay, So when you ask them, don't you remember, you know,
protect and serve public servant. No, they don't, at least
forty percent admit to abusing women.

Speaker 4 (13:33):
That's sad, Bill. How about you?

Speaker 7 (13:38):
No, not metting? Not much to say to what you said,
you know, I mean, I.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
Just think it's a simple solution to a problem that
shouldn't even exist. I remember as a kid growing up,
we had a deputy sheriff that came through once in
a while, and everybody knew him, and he knew everybody,
and it was friendly. This was a whole different world

(14:07):
back then, but not today. I don't care who you
are today. If you look up and see a cup
car behind you. You puck her up a whole bunch.
And I had an experience with this a couple of
years ago. I was driving down a road that had
a school.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
And it was.

Speaker 3 (14:30):
About, I don't know, a few minutes before two o'clock
and there was a school zone from like two to three.
So anyway, I've got the headset, I mean, the radio playing,
I've got my radarchitector running. I don't do a lot

(14:54):
of speeding, but I like to know what's going on.
And it goes crazy as I drive by this school
and I'm driving the speed limit whatever, or pretty close
to whatever it was, and all of a sudden, I
look up in my mirror and there's two school cops

(15:14):
chasing me down in two cars with lights flashing and
speaking in a megaphone kind of thing.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
Well, it's hot in Heston.

Speaker 3 (15:23):
We kind of run the air conditioner, and the radio
is playing and the radar detector's going crazy.

Speaker 4 (15:29):
So I knew they were all sitting there.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
And they come up to the car, one on each side,
and he said, you know this is a school zone.
Said yeah, did you? He said something else? I said, hell,
I saw you guys, And I have a radar detector
that told me you were running radar.

Speaker 4 (15:50):
You think I would go over the speed limit? He said, well,
it's a school zone. And I looked up.

Speaker 3 (15:56):
There was a sign right there by the car. I said,
the school zone don't start till two o'clock.

Speaker 4 (16:02):
What time is it?

Speaker 3 (16:04):
And he looked at his watch, and I looked at
the clock and the car, and it wasn't two o'clock yet.
And they both they didn't apologize, they didn't say oops.

Speaker 4 (16:13):
They just both turned and walked away. But scared the
hell out of me.

Speaker 3 (16:19):
I thought I'd murdered somebody and was going to the
electric chair. I didn't know what had happened. When I
looked up, saw two cars chase of me down the road.
Scary stuff all right in your body. And this is
one thing I need to ask God about. I'm making notes.

(16:39):
You have a one cell layer, that's it between that
your stomach going into the small intestine and the large
intestine and the colon one layer thick, and they call
them tight junctions.

Speaker 4 (17:00):
But it doesn't take much to have a problem.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
You'll hear people talk about leaky gut, and that's what
they're talking about, is the problem of maybe damage somewhere,
you know, with things like crones, an irritable ball, and
a nervous stomach, no telling what's going on or why
without a lot of crazy tests and.

Speaker 4 (17:28):
Expense to you.

Speaker 3 (17:30):
But most of the time, our diet and a few
supplements can take care of this and you won't have
to worry about it. One of the the big things
is you have little villi all throughout, especially the small intestine,

(17:52):
and that's from the Italian word fingers, and it's just
a fancy way of saying you've got these little finger
looking things in there, and their job is to absorb
nutrients at certain places along the way, and then you
get to the large intestine. Then you work your way
down to the colon in the exit ramp, and anything

(18:13):
you didn't need you get rid of. Well, if you
have a problem with that one cell lining, you can
get infections, you can get blood disease, you can get
all kinds of things going on, and the infection can
go either way or both.

Speaker 4 (18:32):
Because there's a damage.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
The gut and the outer part of your body, we're
not supposed to meet and if they're meeting, there's a problem.
So one of the really nice things is that L
glutamine is a great, great nutrient they found out for

(18:58):
this one cell layer in the gut, and you can
get it in a lot of food. And it's one
of the amino acids that's not considered essential, which means
the essential amino acids we need to eat in our
diet we can't make them. But the other amino acids

(19:20):
we can make if the essential amino acids are there
and we have the right diet, and the amino acids
are what turned the protein, and so without them we're
in trouble. And if you eat a bunch of meat
that's cooked too much, you know, you look like charcoal.

(19:43):
The nutrients are gone from that amino acid. So you
need to, you know, not overcook things. That's more Susi's
department than mine, for sure. But you have to be careful.
And EL glutamine is a great thing to take. Usually
they recommend you take it on an empty stomach.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
Uh, in standard process.

Speaker 3 (20:07):
It's in a product called Onziecore, and it's got glutamine
and a few other Let me let me take a
quick care look. Maybe if I know that the alphabet
will get this quicker. Yeah, Onzie Core, it's got glutamine

(20:27):
here you love.

Speaker 4 (20:28):
This is the kale beat powder.

Speaker 3 (20:32):
Broad spectrum of enzymes including uh mal tase, mylace, glucomylase, lactase, lipase, pepsidase,
and proteuse. So you got all that helps a whole

(20:53):
lot with digestion and it's got the glutamine in there.
And then what I tell everybody periodically couple times a
year at least do a bottle of okra pepsin and
Spanish black redish. Okra Pepsin will cleanse and heal from
into out, so if you've got any kind of problems,

(21:16):
it'll clean those little villi and it'll help with healing
any damage along the way. And then the Spanish black
reddish is very good at detoxing our bowl our intestines.
So that's something I recommend everybody do a little bit. Now,
there are products out there that have got some good

(21:38):
things in there, and like diaplex, everybody should take at
least one time one meal a day.

Speaker 4 (21:47):
You also have GI stability.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
This is a good product and it helps especially if
you've had a lot of issues with irregular bowel movements
and all kinds of problems.

Speaker 4 (22:02):
This is a good product. I don't remember.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
Let me see here, let me see ye GI stability.
It's got okra, it's got beetroot, it's got calezontal root,
it's got the two fl prebiotic, and it's got probiotic HMO,

(22:27):
which is human milk oleosecharides, and it does a great
job on helping and for the GI barrier that gut
one cell because you got the glutamine in there, and
you can get glutamine and other things, but in your
diet if you want to help, it's in beef. And

(22:50):
of course these are all hopefully organic, natural, no pesticides,
no hormones, no antibiotics, but beef, chicken, fish, milk, cheese, yogurt, eggs.
And this is why the people to say they want
to be vegetarians and they stay away, and especially if

(23:13):
they're vegan, they stay away from all this, including the dairy.

Speaker 4 (23:17):
They have problems and you can't get it.

Speaker 3 (23:21):
In some vegetable stuff, but not like you can with this.
And what they're talking about they call it the lumen,
which in the body, any kind of artery are intestine
that is tubular, that is called the lumen. And so
it's protecting the lumen and again. I got to ask

(23:45):
God about that, because I'm not understanding why make something
that important one cell thick and then the cells aren't
that big, and that tight junction is so things don't
get through.

Speaker 4 (23:57):
But with one sell thick you don't really have much
of a defense.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
So I guess we've got to make sure our diets
could But it can cause a lot of problems, everything
from infection to krones to irritable bowel.

Speaker 4 (24:15):
People say I got leaky gut.

Speaker 3 (24:17):
That means sometimes they see things in their sharks they
didn't want to see.

Speaker 4 (24:22):
Who knows what all can possibly happen.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
But el glutamine very important, and it's non essential amino acids,
which means if we eat certain foods, we can make
glutamine in the body, and we need the essential amino
acids and all together. There's some argument out there, but

(24:49):
there's twenty two or twenty three amino acids, and about
eight to ten of them are essential.

Speaker 4 (24:55):
There's some argument on that.

Speaker 3 (25:00):
So wonderful things with amino acids, and they're how we
get to our proteins, So pretty important stuff, Suzy.

Speaker 6 (25:15):
Sorry about that. I'm here. I couldn't make the unmute
button unmute. Well, I just started the GI stability and
I got too many other I guess distractions to really
tell what it's doing for me. But I I get
both of us to do a bottle of the Okra

(25:37):
PEPs in like every January. You know, maybe we need
to add another month, maybe six months down the road,
but I like the Oqua pepsin.

Speaker 3 (25:49):
Yeah, I think twice a year is the way to go.
Every six months would probably be fine.

Speaker 4 (25:54):
I had a gentleman.

Speaker 3 (25:57):
He had a lot of health issues and they had
them on a ton of medications. They had this man
so screwed up. He was taking ambition and he could
only sleep two hours.

Speaker 4 (26:08):
A night with ambient. That's how bad they had. He
messed up.

Speaker 3 (26:11):
And one of the first things we did was Oprah
pepsen and Spanish black reddish, and he lost thirty pounds,
So there must have been a lot of cleansing and
healing going on.

Speaker 4 (26:23):
That's all I could figure.

Speaker 3 (26:25):
And then we put diaplex in the mix too, So Bill,
how about you.

Speaker 7 (26:31):
Yeah, I think that kind of ongoing preventive maintenances is
really an important thing. And then tend to forget it.
It's just just easy to kind of get wrapped up
in all the stuff every day that you do, and
you need to need to stay on top of things.

Speaker 3 (26:52):
Yeah, you know, And in the old days, probably more
things were in our food.

Speaker 4 (26:58):
And before the govern killed the.

Speaker 3 (27:03):
Department of Chemistry and turned it into the FDA, they
were fighting to keep our food healthier.

Speaker 4 (27:10):
But in the old.

Speaker 3 (27:11):
Days, I think people that lived on a ranch and
a farm, they did not have access nor did they
choose to use chemicals and bad stuff. And consequently, I
think they were all a lot healthier, and they all
lived pretty long, and that they weren't able to pass

(27:34):
a lot of that on in the town because town
was a long way to go and that was a
big deal to go to town once a week or whatever.
But I think people ate better and we got the
things we needed in our food better. And what's happened
today unless you have a company like Standard Process and Video.

(27:54):
The soil is bad in a lot of places, and
so they might tell you that this carrot should have
two hundred nutrients, but if it came out of bad soil,
it might have five nutrients. And a bushel of spinach

(28:17):
today might give you the nutrients of a cup of
spinach seventy five hundred years ago. So it's really tough,
which is why we have standard process in many herb
and they have their own organic farms and they make

(28:39):
sure the crops are rotated properly. It's amazing all them
years ago, they knew so much, and yet somewhere along
the line people got dumber because I guess the governments
are getting involved.

Speaker 4 (28:55):
I don't know what happened, but people used.

Speaker 3 (28:58):
To know how to grow their own food, how to
rotate crops and window at crops, not get replanted in
a certain field and give it a break, and so
a lot of things have changed. So anything before we
go to break Susie yep Bill.

It's dropped down to about ninety eight.

Speaker 3 (33:12):
In my backyard in the sun. So we're just loving
every minute of it. The dog days this summer are
about gone.

Speaker 4 (33:21):
I had one.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
Quick little thing. I was talking to Susie off air.
The NFL last year got a little woke and they
had all kinds.

Speaker 4 (33:31):
Of crazy stuff.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
And the racism and all these silly quotes, and they
were writing stuff on the field. And this year it
seems like a lot of teams told them, you know,
stick it, We're not doing that.

Speaker 4 (33:46):
Kind of stuff.

Speaker 3 (33:47):
And so I'm watching TV and Susie is a die
hard Dallas Cowboy fan and she can't help but it's
in her blood from her mother before her. And I
look on the screen and there's the Cowboys and I
think they were playing the Giants. And on the back
of your helmet in the National Football League, it'll say

(34:10):
what city you're from, or the name of your team.
Sometimes they'll say Detroit, or sometimes it'll say Lions or
Cowboys in the back or Dallas. And everybody on Dallas's
team seemed to have one that said Cowboys. And I
happen to notice the quarterback that was so much going

(34:32):
on last year, and I look at.

Speaker 4 (34:34):
His helmet and it says choose love.

Speaker 3 (34:39):
Well, that was part of that woke craziness from last year,
and I'm wondering, why would you do that? But then
I was wondering, too, what the hell are the choices?
I mean, choose love? Usually we have a multiple choice
question that you get more than one answer to choose,
So what were the other voices? You know, maybe I

(35:01):
wanted one of them instead of love. Uh, I don't
even know what that was about.

Speaker 4 (35:06):
Choose love? Anybody susy.

Speaker 6 (35:10):
Yeah, he's Burchee signaling. I mean, if it was Sunday's game,
you know it was after Charlie Kirk's assassination, and so
he sings love rather than hate. Well, Evil's gonna choose
evil every single time. There is no unity with evil.

(35:32):
And so yeah, he's just Burchie signaling.

Speaker 3 (35:35):
Okay, because I saw that last year on the field.
It was spray painted on some of the fields and
the and the lgb QT crowd and the NFL and
everybody was doing that woke stuff and a lot of
the teams this year said, Nope, it ain't happening.

Speaker 4 (35:52):
Bill. How about you? Do you know what were the
multiple choice answers?

Speaker 7 (36:01):
Well, you could go lots of places with that, but
it's I don't I don't think a sports venue is
a place to try and get all warm and fuzzy.

Speaker 3 (36:18):
Well, I agree, And if you're going to put the
damn thing up there to tell me what to choose, Alicia,
to give me the question and the answers. I mean,
you know, I've had a few tests in my life
and if it's multiple choice, usually you know what the
question is and then you get to choose. They might
have offered carrot cake or cold beer.

Speaker 4 (36:41):
I don't know. He didn't give me a choice.

Speaker 3 (36:45):
This kind of silly stuff, all right, So anything on
the one Celtick, gutlining, Susy or Bill.

Speaker 6 (36:54):
Well, I'm just wondering if it's designed that way so that,
you know, nutrients can come through easier.

Speaker 3 (37:06):
Well, it's called a tight junction, so nothing comes through
very easy.

Speaker 4 (37:10):
So I'm still confused.

Speaker 3 (37:12):
I said, I've got a little note of things I'm
going to ask God, and that happens to be one
of them, you know, if he lets me in the gate.
But anyway, it just blows my mind.

Speaker 7 (37:25):
Yeah, I don't think he's down that for dont.

Speaker 4 (37:31):
All right, got a couple of things here.

Speaker 3 (37:36):
I saw some of the Charlie Kirk stuff over the weekend,
and I saw before that a bunch of stuff when
Trump went to England. And I kind of think some
of the English stuff is cool, where you have like
a certain respect system.

Speaker 4 (37:56):
I don't like too much of the.

Speaker 3 (38:03):
I don't know how to word it that the ceremonial
stuff gets too drawn out too long. You know, funerals
and weddings and they're pretty close to each other, and
memorials like that. I don't really like that kind of stuff.
They drag on forever. I forget how many times in

(38:24):
my life seeing some military person doing the guard or
the honors, passing out from standing attention too long and
then long drawn out stuff.

Speaker 4 (38:38):
When people die.

Speaker 3 (38:39):
When you die, you know, I don't want something like that.
I'm not planning on being there, so why should anybody
else have to go? I already told my poor mom,
I said, I hate to break it to you, but
when you die, you're not.

Speaker 4 (38:56):
Going to be there, and neither am I.

Speaker 3 (38:58):
I'm not coming if you're out there, so you know,
she already knows. But I just think it's silly with
too much ceremonial stuff.

Speaker 4 (39:10):
We draw things out.

Speaker 3 (39:12):
And to me, if you want to celebrate, celebrate when
people are still alive. Have parties and do fun things
while people are alive.

Speaker 4 (39:24):
Don't wait till they're dead, you know.

Speaker 3 (39:27):
I remember people in my life had talked about they
wanted to give money to somebody and it was in
their will. I said, if you really want to do
something nice for them, give it to them while you're
alive so they can tell you thank you while you're here.
What good does it do after you're gone, other than
they got the gift, but they can't even thank you.

Speaker 4 (39:50):
So that's just my way of thinking.

Speaker 3 (39:53):
But I do kind of think some of the British
stuff is cool where they have.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
Certain levels of respect.

Speaker 3 (40:02):
And me lord milady, like you're going out to the
Renaissance Festival.

Speaker 4 (40:06):
I think some of that's cool.

Speaker 3 (40:08):
Some of it is a little too much, and some
things are just too drawn out.

Speaker 4 (40:13):
I like Charlie Kirk. I never heard him say anything.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
That I thought was bad, but I would not want
to have been sitting at that memorial for all that time.

Speaker 4 (40:22):
I mean, you see enough recap in the news, but
just not not me.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
I'm not Weddings are a little different because they have
booze and food and you know, I think weddings were
invented by women and men created receptions.

Speaker 4 (40:41):
But that's just me. But I'm not not much in
any of that kind of self Susy.

Speaker 6 (40:49):
Ounce, well, I don't. I don't really know how to
put it. I will say, you know, by weddings go
all the way back to you know, biblical times. Wedding

(41:11):
was designed between you know, a man and a woman,
and when you read some of the stories about weddings
in the Bible. It blows your mind. You know, there's
like a year where you know, the bridegroom doesn't see
the bride as they both prepare for their lifelong commitment.

(41:37):
It's it's just kind of amazing. And you know there's
more to it. You know, he's got to prove to
the family that that he's capable of taking care of
their you know, their precious daughter. And uh, I'm not
advocating that we wait a year, but I do think

(41:58):
that there's marriage has been minimalized. It's been.

Speaker 5 (42:08):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (42:10):
I think most people, at least an awful lot of them,
get married for the wrong reasons for last And you know, again,
I'm reminded of my very wise cousin. Marry someone you
can't live without, not someone you want to live with.

Speaker 4 (42:30):
Yeah, I like I like that.

Speaker 3 (42:33):
I've always reminded though a good friend of mine and
he's a doctor also, And I said, Bobby, how did
you know when to get married? And he said, she
told me that he was serious as a heart attack.

(42:55):
All right, we got a couple of little jokes here, Bill,
did you have anything on the prim and proper stuff
and the memorials and all that stuff.

Speaker 4 (43:05):
I'm sure you played Argon and a bunch of that stuff.
Did we lose Bill? Hello, Bill Susy, are you still there?

Speaker 6 (43:19):
Yeah, I'm here. I'm showing on the zoom screen. Could
have been disconnected.

Speaker 4 (43:29):
Oh he hung up on me again. I'm starting to
get a complex.

Speaker 3 (43:34):
All right, Well, I got a couple of little things here.

Speaker 4 (43:41):
There was a.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
Guy talking to one of his buddies and he said,
what happened to Joe. We didn't see him at work today.
He said, yeah, he got hurt yesterday at lunch. He said,
how do you get hurt at lunch? The guy said
he was eating my lunch.

Speaker 4 (43:58):
So that and go. Well.

Speaker 3 (44:01):
That was a guy came home and he told his
wife the boss invited him on a business trip, but
they were going to get to do some fishing.

Speaker 4 (44:10):
And that kind of stuff.

Speaker 3 (44:11):
So would she please pack his pajamas and his tackle
box and get everything ready for him so when he
got home he could leave. So she did, and they
all went on their camping, fishing, whatever business trip, and
it had a great time. And when he got back
Sunday night, he said, I'm home and she said, boy,

(44:38):
that's great.

Speaker 4 (44:38):
Did you have a nice weekend, he said, I sure did.

Speaker 3 (44:41):
Lots of fishing, caught a lot of fish, cooked him.

Speaker 4 (44:46):
We just had a great time, he said.

Speaker 3 (44:49):
But you didn't put my pajamas in there that I asked, Oh,
she said I did. They were in your tackle box,
says he would say, what did he do?

Speaker 4 (45:05):
Kind of funny. I thought that was really good. Now
I got one, and I used to be a Catholic.
I got over it. And it's a little TACKI maybe,
but I thought it was so funny. Priest is.

Speaker 3 (45:20):
Out in downtown after dark, which he doesn't normally do.
He got stranded out there from a meeting or something, and.

Speaker 4 (45:29):
He's walking back down to catch the bus.

Speaker 3 (45:33):
And this lady of the night comes out and she said, quickie,
fifteen dollars.

Speaker 4 (45:40):
And he looked at her.

Speaker 3 (45:41):
Kind of funny, and he didn't quite understand, so he
kept walking and he's almost to the bus station and
another lady of the evening came out and she said, quickie,
fifteen dollars, and he's now he's really confused.

Speaker 4 (45:56):
He's got no idea what they're talking about.

Speaker 3 (45:59):
He finally gets on the bus and he gets back
to the parish and he sees one of the sisters
there and he said, what is a quickie?

Speaker 4 (46:12):
She said, fifteen dollars, just like in town.

Speaker 3 (46:16):
Oh, my gosh, I thought that was hilarious. No offense.
I don't want the pope knocking on the door. It's
just a joke.

Speaker 4 (46:29):
I didn't marry it. I just repeated it. All right.
What else we got? What else we got? Oh?

Speaker 3 (46:37):
A man had been out drinking every single night, coming
home three sheets to the wind, and his wife had
had enough. So she gets this realistic and as realistic
as people can be, devil's costume. And when he comes

(47:02):
stumbling through the yard in pitch black night and can
barely see, she jumps out with this devil's costume to
scare him really bad so he'll stop. And he said, sorry, mister,
you're not scaring me none. I'm married to your sister.

Speaker 6 (47:24):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (47:27):
I thought that was pretty good, Pretty pretty good? All right?
What else?

Speaker 7 (47:34):
I god?

Speaker 4 (47:36):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (47:37):
Wife comes in and she tells her husband. She said,
I'm leaving you, and he said why. She goes because
I met somebody else. And he said, well, who did
you meet that you're leaving me for? She said the
milkman Mike, and he said, Mike is is a real

(48:00):
good friend of mine. He's my best friend.

Speaker 4 (48:03):
She said, you don't even know Mike. How could he
be your best friend?

Speaker 3 (48:08):
How long has he been your best friend? And he
said a couple of minutes ago when you said you
were leaving with him.

Speaker 4 (48:17):
Do we get Bill back? I don't. I don't see him.
Do you see you see him in there? Susie?

Speaker 6 (48:27):
Yeah, I see his name, but he obviously is not.
He doesn't hear it, hear rius?

Speaker 4 (48:35):
Bill? Are you there?

Speaker 3 (48:38):
Maybe Steve can track him down?

Speaker 4 (48:43):
All right? So, Susie, you got any jokes or anything.

Speaker 6 (48:49):
No, I'm not really in the choke mood. Oh, nothing's
very funny right now.

Speaker 3 (49:00):
I think I'm praying things are still pretty good from
when I talked to you earlier.

Speaker 6 (49:06):
Yes, I just feel worn out.

Speaker 4 (49:11):
I bet you do.

Speaker 3 (49:12):
I'm tired and it ain't even happened to me, all right.
Boss at work said where's Mike? And the guy said,
he's in the hospital. The boss said, what happened to him?
I just saw him dancing at the club the other night,

(49:33):
and he said, yeah, his wife did too.

Speaker 4 (49:35):
U Bill, are you back? I don't know. I guess
he's not there.

Speaker 6 (49:49):
Well, I'll put a question in chat. I'll send Steve
in a text.

Speaker 3 (49:54):
Okay, yeah, I'm sure Steve can track him down. I
don't know how we lose Bill so often you hang.

Speaker 7 (50:01):
Up on me. That's how there is no there he is.

Speaker 4 (50:05):
I'm starting to get a complex, Bill.

Speaker 7 (50:09):
Oh you had a complex, You're gotting another one.

Speaker 4 (50:13):
I'm gonna need a good head doctor to talk to.

Speaker 7 (50:17):
I'll try and find your one.

Speaker 4 (50:24):
Funny stuff, funny funny stuff.

Speaker 3 (50:29):
Oh and there's one, Susie you can you can appreciate.
Woman was telling her husband there's a new study out
that said women that do a lot of cleaning at home,
uh have a much less sex life. And the husband said, well,

(50:50):
whose house are you cleaning?

Speaker 6 (50:53):
Oh golly, I love that one.

Speaker 4 (51:00):
I love that one.

Speaker 6 (51:02):
You get your jokes off of the dark web.

Speaker 4 (51:06):
All over the place. They just come to me sometimes.

Speaker 3 (51:12):
I just they pop in there, and you know, it's
just funny, and some of them just they just make
you laugh. And sometimes it'll be a joke with a
video and there's and they're funny, like the one with
the husband and the wife and the cleaning. When he

(51:33):
said that, she was like, oh my god, he's probably
not with us anymore, but you know, it's just it's funny.

Speaker 4 (51:43):
I liked the little bit of humor breaks things up. So, Bail,
you're back. Did you hear anything we talked about?

Speaker 2 (51:53):
Nope?

Speaker 4 (51:55):
No, I'm starting to think you did it on purpose.
You were trying.

Speaker 3 (52:00):
You were trying to avoid my great jokes, and tonight
tonight I felt almost guilty, not quite, but almost guilty
that I've been trying to find little clips for you
of classical music that weren't two hours long so I
could play them, and I hadn't done one for Susie,

(52:21):
So the show tonight kind of has a musical theme.

Speaker 4 (52:26):
And then I found a little song for.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
Susie that will play right before she does her things too.
So Bill, you got a good weekly topic as usual
up your sleeve.

Speaker 7 (52:38):
Well, I have a weekly topic. I'm not sure about
the qualification of it.

Speaker 4 (52:44):
Well, they're always pretty good.

Speaker 3 (52:47):
I think you must have been a fabulous professor and
a therapist, because you've got some pretty good insight and
sometimes things that none of us ever prob probably thought about, So.

Speaker 7 (53:02):
That that's kind of maybe maybe.

Speaker 3 (53:07):
How long did you play an organ for the church
or did you do it for several churches.

Speaker 7 (53:13):
Oh it's usually just an hour or every week, but I.

Speaker 4 (53:18):
Mean, how many years? Was that a long thing?

Speaker 7 (53:22):
No, I probably can't. I've actually I've I played for
quite a number of different churches because I was the thing.
You know, the thing about being a church organist is
that it really messes up your weekend. So what I

(53:42):
would you know when somebody would want an organism want
to take a week off. I was kind of an
on call list that if somebody wanted to they needed
a substitute for a week or two weeks, that's what
I would do. I had a couple of regular church shops,
but never more than six months. I just just I
couldn't do it.

Speaker 3 (54:03):
Well, you're you're a better man than me, because I
do not like church music hardly at all. There's there's
been in my lifetime maybe five songs I heard in
church that I liked, and most of the time I
was suffering.

Speaker 4 (54:22):
So it was.

Speaker 3 (54:25):
My hat's off to you, because that had to be
challenging sometimes, especially when you got to play a song
that maybe you don't like.

Speaker 4 (54:34):
Now. You played a piano first, right.

Speaker 7 (54:39):
Well as a kid?

Speaker 3 (54:40):
Yeah, oh okay, I thought you did as adult.

Speaker 4 (54:48):
Is the argon very similar to the piano.

Speaker 7 (54:53):
The only similarity is that they both have keyboards.

Speaker 4 (54:56):
Yep, because I've never played.

Speaker 7 (55:00):
And the keyboard the keyboard, and you know there are
eighty eight keys on a piano. There are about sixty
on an organ. The keyboards ort is long.

Speaker 3 (55:08):
Oh okay, interesting, I didn't know that I've never played
a piano or an organ.

Speaker 4 (55:18):
Of course, yeah, of course.

Speaker 3 (55:21):
Our producer Steve wanted to know about where's that church
argon located next to the liver? That was a good joke,
good joke, funny stuff, funny stuff. Well, I guess we're
just to be We're just about that break something I

(55:44):
was thinking about. I listened to different shows and watch
different news channels and read stuff. And unfortunately, the newspaper
here is very liberal, but I read it to see
what's going on in their version of things. And I

(56:04):
see a lot of online ads and people selling stuff
and telling you that this made you walk on water
and all these things. And everybody wants to be an expert. Well,
I personally believe that many of us have experiences in
certain areas, but I would never think that anybody deserves

(56:31):
to be called an expert on anything just my opinion,
because just as soon as you think you know everything,
something will come up and make you feel dumb again.
And you know you're learning more and more, and you're
always We're always learning. But one of the things when
people listen to our show is they're hearing things that

(56:54):
are not for sales. They're not ads. It's real world stuff.
Susie's talking about recipes that she's made and how to
change things, and her experiences in the kitchen. Bill's giving
you real life stories sometimes about his patients, his the

(57:17):
music business.

Speaker 4 (57:20):
All the different things that he's been involved in.

Speaker 3 (57:23):
And when I'm talking to you, I'm not recommending products
so you buy something. I only recommend them when I
think they'll do good for you. And I have lots
of experience with many patients, so I learned a lot

(57:44):
over the years and I'm always learning. So when we
tell you something on our show and producer Steve the
same way, we're giving you experiences backed up with you
know the fact, not a sales pitch or an opinion
just trying to take.

Speaker 4 (58:04):
Money out of your pocket.

Speaker 3 (58:06):
We will never recommend that you buy or do something
just so you spend your money, and especially my patients
know over the years that many times I tried to
cut them back on things because I don't want them
doing a lot of pills and taking a lot of
money so wasting it. And that way, if we can

(58:28):
get them healthier and healthier, we just maintain things.

Speaker 4 (58:32):
So we look at things a whole lot different.

Speaker 3 (58:35):
And I was thinking about that because on a lot
of these ads and social media stuff, everybody wants to
tell you that the one nutrient you're missing to change
your life in the world, they've got it. And I've
checked every vitamin, every supplement that I've seen for the

(58:56):
last few weeks, maybe a month, and I haven't found
on one yet that didn't have a scorbiic acid is
vitamin c are Ta Kaffer rolls for vitamin E or
calcium carbonate are some cheap farm of vitamin A and
they're just selling stuff and you're not going to get better,

(59:17):
and they're taking your money, and they're wasting your time
and they're.

Speaker 4 (59:20):
Lying to you. So we're not going to do that.

Speaker 3 (59:23):
We're going to be upfront, honest, and we're speaking of
real world experiences and things that we've seen. So and
my cuckoo clock said it's time to go to break
and they're almost all together all right. Well, ladies and gentlemen,
this is Doctor Groupa's Natural Health Hours. It is the
twenty fourth of September. We are experiencing almost a cold

Speaker 5 (01:03:08):
Did I shoot out the lights? Did I dance on
the barn?

Speaker 2 (01:03:12):
Did I start?

Speaker 4 (01:03:16):
All?

Speaker 2 (01:03:17):
Right?

Speaker 4 (01:03:17):
We are back. Welcome back to doctor Crooper's Natural Health Hours. Bill.
I have a little clip. Hopefully you can hear this,
and then we'll.

Speaker 3 (01:03:27):
Go right to your weekly topic. So let me see
if it works out.

Speaker 7 (01:03:38):
Don't recognize it so far.

Speaker 4 (01:03:41):
You're a funny man, Bill.

Speaker 7 (01:03:43):
Oh John Cage twenty seconds of silence?

Speaker 4 (01:04:20):
All right, Bill? Could you hear it? Nope?

Speaker 7 (01:04:24):
Well yeah, I could hear noise, but I couldn't. I couldn't.

Speaker 4 (01:04:26):
Okay, sorry about anything. Well, take away your weekly topic,
my friend.

Speaker 7 (01:04:33):
I feel like I just mentioned a minute ago about
John Cage in the twenty seconds of silence there was
Jock Cage was a composer back in the fifties sixties
when music was really trying to break away from the
traditional you know, part of the problem with councure halls
or music in America or serious music, is that we

(01:04:55):
turned music into a museum experience. Very little new music
was there, was performed. It was mostly the old classics.
It were just played over and over again. And that
really didn't happen until around nineteen hundred when concert halls

(01:05:16):
became available and people wanted to hear their favorites, and
they paid money to hear their favorites, and so new
music just wasn't played a whole lot. And name way,
John Cage came up with this idea. It's a kind
of a joke, but not really a serious joke. Not

(01:05:37):
all jokes are funny. Some jokes are serious and are droning.
But the piece that he put together was go to
really called twenty seconds of silence, and that's what happened
in the concert hall was absolute silence for twenty seconds.
People didn't really know what to do that, but the

(01:05:57):
point of it was that we don't know how to listen,
and there's so much noise going around that we don't
hear that. If we're given the opportunity, in a fairly
restricted space to have a pretty highly filtered sound available,
you begin to hear all kinds of noises that you've
never heard before. As I said, it was just kind

(01:06:19):
of the rebellion of the of the era. But it
was I thought about it a lot over the last years,
and it's it's kind of a kind of a quirky
part of that time. Steve and I were talking about
some of it before we came on there before the
show started, about some of the films from way back when,

(01:06:41):
and the humor and the fun and the commentary that
was available that Steve's been missing now. Anyway, what I
was going to talk about this week, I will do
about next week, because it was really has to do
with with music and the difference between classical, serious two

(01:07:08):
hour pieces of music and the shorter trying to focus
music with us. I'll get to that next week. What
kind of came up this week was of a former
patient that I hadn't heard from a while who has
been He do it very well, but he, you know,
every once in a while, like every six months or

(01:07:30):
once a year, he'd kind of check in and this
kind of injury. But he had an acquaintance, has an
acquaintance who raised an interesting point and we kind of
talked about this on and off before on the show.
But I thought it was worth revisiting because it has
cropped up something. I saw something on the Internet about

(01:07:54):
it the other day that I looked at, and it
was the usual Internet garbage, but the concept is interesting
and that it really has to do with relationships and
the change that happens in relationship. And this particular person
that he was talking about had been married close to

(01:08:14):
fifty years five zero years long time. The kids were
going grown and gone and had families of their own,
and the question became was that the relationship of these
two people had changed so dramatically that they really didn't

(01:08:39):
understand quite how to cope with each other anymore. And
it's a fairly I don't want to say, a fairly
common experience, but you know, when somebody's got two careers,
a husband and a wife worked, they spent a lot
of time, most of their waking hours are spent away

(01:09:01):
from each other, and when one or the other retires,
strange things begin to happen. And so when I talk
about relationships, I want to I want to be about
what I mean to that. I'm going to borrow a
musical term for that, because I talk about sacred relationships

(01:09:22):
and secular relationships. Secular relationship is like friends and acquaintances,
and a sacred relationship is like a marriage or a
spiritual relationship. Right, similar phenomenon occur in each, but in
this esset they're talking about the sacred relationships marriage or

(01:09:46):
a spiritual a kind of relationship that has the capability
to either become stronger or to disintegrate, depending upon whatever
in you know, in terms of the spiritual relationship to cetegrating,
you know, we have the nuns or priests of that

(01:10:09):
particular ethic that occasionally drop out. What's happened. We have
people who've been married for many years and all of
a sudden, I think the kids are gone. They find
that they don't like each other very much, They don't
have anything to say to each other. And the question
is is, well a number of questions, but did you

(01:10:32):
ever really have anything to say to each other? Or
were you just simply wrapped up in the idea of
being married, having a family, living in American dream, driving
five cars or whatever. And when all of a sudden
that no longer is a salient part of the relationship.
What's left? Then? You talk to each other, not always,

(01:10:56):
And I think hard of The difficulty lies in what
we all deal with at some point of which is
simply unrealistic expectations. We just assume that everything is going
to be good and happy forever and it ain't. And
what do we do? How do we begin to have

(01:11:18):
some cognizance of all that's changing? And I think although
the decision that we have to make is is staying
in a contentious relationship with it and never years ago,
patient said well, and the patient who was at that
point in his late seventies, he said, well, you know,

(01:11:40):
I don't like her anymore, but I'm just too old
to pack up and move out, so I'll put up
with it. Okay, that's an option. Actuarily, you're probably not
going to be around all that much longer, so maybe
you can tolerate the contention better. But whatever, I think

(01:12:00):
that as we age and this is this is just
and this is just a very important part of any
relationship that as we age, and this starts in our
early thirties, as we age and make sure, our perspectives
begin to delidify, to become more concrete, they become, our

(01:12:27):
values become a little more set. Things that are important
to us become a little more important. Things that were
not so important become a little less important. But our
position is is fluid, it's changing, and you know that happens.

(01:12:47):
You know that happens with the other person too, I
mean they're going through the same process.

Speaker 2 (01:12:52):
A lot of.

Speaker 7 (01:12:55):
Frustration in relationships develops because of I think, an inability
to express an exchange of opinions and to recognize that
change is a healthy part of who we are. It

(01:13:16):
certainly can be a divisi department. I think that the
visiveness really begins to accelerate when nobody talks about them anymore.
You know it. It's just easier to not have conversations
than to get into an argument. No, we don't have conversations.
We don't talk to each other because our own silence

(01:13:37):
is a little more valuable than having a big ruckus.
And this is certainly a valid point. How do we
avoid the ruckus? And how do we even recognize that
that there is a rucket? I who repinded the other
day that so often in relationships, the very things that
attracted us early on are the very things that will

(01:14:01):
drive us apart. Remember, some e should tell me that
you know is one of the things that was just
so cute with that she'd come home from work and
kick her shoes off and they'd be in the floor.
That was just so cute that she just kicked her
shoes off and walks forever, you know. And he said,
after twenty years, I got really tired of stepping around

(01:14:23):
her damn shoes. Yeah, that's kind of a problem. How
do we begin to adapt our own behavior to in
a sense, the greater good, which might be the relationship.
On the other hand, one of the things that I've
noticed about working with elderly people is that things things

(01:14:52):
don't matter so much anymore. The things that we thought
were important really aren't important, but the things that we
hang on to come more important. It's not that everything
is not important, it's just that the peripheral stuff is
an important and it kind of manifests itself in a

(01:15:12):
loss of patience. Elderly people have put up with life's
bs for a long long time, and they're just kind
of done with doing that, and they're tired of putting
up with it, and they're tired of having to work
with people that don't know anything, that are people that
don't listen to people just you know, the hell with them,

(01:15:33):
and I've certainly noticed, of course I've been that somebody
said I was born old, but I've noticed that my
patience for are my tolerance for stupid behavior, has really
almost evaporated. I just don't have any time for the

(01:15:57):
kind of nonsense that people will come up with to
keep a man to deal with something. It's that kind
of loss of patience in elderly people is something that
you you can look forward to happen in yourselves, because
it will. It will you just you get tired of
kids running around, You get tired of shoes on the floor,

(01:16:19):
You get tired of continuing to put up with stuff
that you've realized that you've put up with all your life,
and you don't like It's it's a it's a trying
to catch twenty two, but has to do really, I think,
identifying how you feel about what's important to you. I

(01:16:40):
mean a lot of times in relationships, we we tolerate
things that with this this other person that we certainly
wouldn't tolerate with a stranger, or with grandchildren, or you know,
it's a the selection, selective process about how we deal

(01:17:06):
with life's little goodies. Ages A whole lot when r old.
Nobody really prepares us for that. It's we just kind
of become aware of it, and and it's to be changing.
I you know, as he was back to my friend's
friend was saying that he suddenly didn't they know what

(01:17:30):
happened to his wife, But she's just gotten to be
It's got to be a bit about that val Where
where did that come from? Well? Who who are we?
And when we when we begin a relationship, when we're
in love and when the excitement of a new relationship
is just flying high, and it's all everything is wonderful,

(01:17:52):
And we tend to suppress a lot of things that
are important to us, our own feelings about things, because
we just do it. When we become older or we
become old, those things are still there. Those feelings that

(01:18:16):
really defined who we were who we are are still rare.
I remember some kind of talking with a neighbor guy
who said, whose wife had just died. And he said,
you know, in six months after she died, I kept
trying to figure out who this woman was. You know,

(01:18:39):
why do you live with there for forty years? Do
we really know who we married? Do we really know
who this person is? Mostly not mostly It's like somebody's
who's just nice all the time. They're just kind and
nice and pleasant to be around, and you never know
what they're like and never know what's going on because

(01:19:03):
they're always nice, they're always pleasant. It's frustrated. And I
think as we aige, that kind of frustration builds and
we kind of tire of it.

Speaker 4 (01:19:14):
What do we.

Speaker 7 (01:19:16):
Understand that not only are we recognizing change in others,
but we have to also realize that we too are
part of that same process. We're changing. We're becoming more
intolerant of things that we used to tolerate. We're becoming
less patient the things that we used to put up with.

(01:19:38):
That's just part of the process. And when I was
talking to him about this, there is couple that he knows,
he said, I don't know if they're gonna divorce or not. Well,
a lot of divorces once the kids are gone. The
common factor of the relationship is gone. It's just not there.

(01:20:01):
I mean. But as long as you've got children, that's
what bonds you together, because that's your job and the
relationship is to provide and support and protect your children.
When they're on their own, then they're on their own
and then what do you do go on cruises for
the rest of your life. Some folks do that. I
think that really be boring, But that's just I mean,

(01:20:23):
what what prepares this for these kinds of substance to
changes that take place and within us that really affected
every kind of relationship that we have with anybody else,

(01:20:43):
even with our pets. I remember one old guy who
had a dog and they were they were inseparable, and
one time he felt he said, he got angry with
his dog and he swatted the dog with a newspaper,
and he said he felt so bad about it. And
I said, so, what was that really all about? They said, Now,
my neighbor's got a dog and the dog just barked,

(01:21:05):
and my dog bark and I just lost it. Okay, well,
don't lose it again. But at least he didn't hit
the dog with his hand. At least he's a newspaper.
That's always a better thing. Recognizing that we change all
the time, and as we no longer have the absorption
of a career or a family, those changes become much

(01:21:31):
more reflective of what's going on with our real self
inside of us and being able to and I never
talked about this before, but being able to objectively understand
that we are in this change process constantly, and that
as we age and we approach the inevitable, we begin

(01:21:55):
to sort through what really is important to us. And
if you've been married for almost fifty years or you
decide you can't live with this person anymore, well then
you got a choice. You gotta stay and you gotta leave.
What's what's going to work for you. That's an objective process,
and if we can keep the emotion out of that,

(01:22:19):
sometimes the decision making is a little more brutal, but
I think it's a little more honest that stuff there.

Speaker 3 (01:22:28):
You go, Wow, I think the secret was booze and
give it.

Speaker 4 (01:22:39):
Give her a drink and you a drink. You'll like
each other so much better.

Speaker 3 (01:22:47):
You must have dealt with a lot of that stuff
in your practice, Phil because it sounds like you've been
down many of those roads.

Speaker 4 (01:22:57):
I don't envy you. That's I've dealt with that'll little bit.
That's tough.

Speaker 7 (01:23:01):
Oh well, you know it is. It's tough in one
way and on the other hand, it's it's it's learning
to accept that this is part of our life. This
is part of our culture, and that's not always a
bad thing if we understand that.

Speaker 4 (01:23:19):
This is not.

Speaker 7 (01:23:21):
It ain't always easy, and and the myth that everything
is going to be fine and wonderful and we're going
to live happily ever after is a myth. And we
need to be able to get our feet on the
ground and make some good use of the time that
we had left instead of living in.

Speaker 2 (01:23:37):
This never never have.

Speaker 4 (01:23:40):
Yeah, that makes it hard.

Speaker 7 (01:23:41):
A lot of people don't want to do that.

Speaker 3 (01:23:44):
Well, I know, I guess it was the World War
two generation. Many of them slept in separate beds, same room,
but separate beds.

Speaker 7 (01:23:58):
Their parsid yeah, on on, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:24:02):
Yeah, I don't know if it was so they didn't
disserve each other's sleep, or they just wanted that little
bit of independence. But they all stayed married it seemed
like forever, but separate beds.

Speaker 7 (01:24:17):
But the marriage then was was a very different institution
than it is now, and I think culturally it was.
It had a degree of permanence and stability that people
born in the fifties and sixties grew up without. And

(01:24:42):
we're seeing that in in divorce rates, in what they
call this phenomenon that I've been hearing a little bit
about calling gray divorce, which essentially means that the marriage,
in terms of a marriage is essentially over and we're
just going to be housemen until one of us are

(01:25:02):
all of us die, And that's fine, but it's not
We're not going to go through the process of splitting
up a household starting on it wrap all over again.
We're just gonna last it out. Okay, Okay, that's that's
just again a kind of a phenomenon that's been increasing
a little bit, and I think people are beginning to
look at that more, but not what our parents grew

(01:25:24):
up with. Well with my parents anyway.

Speaker 4 (01:25:27):
How about you, sissy, What do you got to say?

Speaker 6 (01:25:32):
I think it's just very sad. I mean, marriage isn't easy.
But I can't I don't even think I'm qualified to
even speak to this. I can't sure well, I can't

(01:25:55):
even imagine Number one, if I wanted a divorce, h
he gone, I'm not going to live in the same
structure if I need a divorce that desperately, you know,
And if.

Speaker 7 (01:26:12):
I'm that, I'm gone.

Speaker 6 (01:26:16):
Right gone. And I just think that people make light
of marriage and that they also get married for the
wrong reason. And absolutely you said something you know in
the get go about it being spiritual. Well, it is spiritual,

(01:26:37):
but you have to be too spiritual people.

Speaker 7 (01:26:44):
And I think that's an important part of it. And
I think that's what's missing.

Speaker 6 (01:26:48):
That's what's missing. Yeah, it is.

Speaker 7 (01:26:52):
Yep, that's part of the part of the deculturalization, that
the erosion of spirituality. And I'm not seeking only of church,
but church is a large part of it. But a
sense of something greater than yourself. It's more important than
what I want today or want tomorrow. Some spiritual connection

(01:27:16):
who precedes the daily bs that we put up with.
It's a sense of serial safety, a sense of spiritual
oneness togetherness. And I think that the secularization of our
society has really been very destructive to all of it.
And I think it's on purpose.

Speaker 6 (01:27:35):
That's it. And during the break, I'm gonna go get
my shoes of a living room.

Speaker 3 (01:27:40):
Okay, how funny, Sissy, you got a wonderful recipe up
your sleeve.

Speaker 4 (01:27:47):
I know you've been under the weather a bit.

Speaker 6 (01:27:49):
I've got one simple one.

Speaker 2 (01:27:52):
I like that.

Speaker 8 (01:29:54):
Well, Scotsman planning killed left the bar on eating there,
and one could tell how he walked, and he drunk
more than his share. He fumbled around until he could
no longer keep his feet, and he stumbled off into
the grass to sleep beside the street, ringing it a
little ladier ring noadedly. I oh, he stumbled off into

(01:30:18):
the grass to sleep beside the street. About that time,
two young and lovely girls just happened by. One says
to the other, with the twinkle in her eyes, see
on sleeping scotsman, so strong and handsome built. I wonder
rivage's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt, ringing

(01:30:39):
it a little lady ringnardedly. I oh, wow, wonder rivage's
true what they don't wear beneath the kilt. They crept
up on that sleeping scotsman quiet as could be lifted
up as kilt about and if so they could see,
and there behold four of thems of you beneath this
goddish skirt. It was nothing more than God had graced

(01:31:02):
him with upon his.

Speaker 5 (01:31:03):
Birth, ringing a little ladier.

Speaker 8 (01:31:07):
Ring Nadilly Isle was nothing more than God had graced
him with upon his birth. They marveled for a moment.
Then one said we must be gone. Let's leave a
present for our friend before we move along. As a gift,
they left a blue silk ribbon tied into a bowl

(01:31:27):
round the bunny star. The Scots kilt did lift dunshow,
ringing that a little ladier ring nadilly Ile all around
the bunny star. The scots kilt did lift dun show.
Now a Scotsman woke to nature's called and stumble towards
the trees. Behind the bush he lifts his kilt and

(01:31:47):
got said what he sees and then the starrible vice
He says to what's before his eyes off lad I
don't know where. He then blasio one first prize, ring.

Speaker 4 (01:32:01):
All right, we are back. That was a funny, funny thing.
I think.

Speaker 3 (01:32:09):
Find out you had a blue ribbon and you didn't
even know you entered the contest.

Speaker 4 (01:32:17):
I guess the Scots don't wear underwear. That was the
whole point of that. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:32:23):
All right, Susie, it's that time to help you with
the name of the company.

Speaker 4 (01:32:28):
And we seem to.

Speaker 3 (01:32:30):
Have written down here raising up and dropping down.

Speaker 4 (01:32:34):
Construction.

Speaker 6 (01:32:36):
That's pretty good. Renovation and design, custom homes. We do
remodel and we did new construction, kind of specialize in
rural ranch properties. You can go to Dcreeper dot com.

(01:32:56):
Go to the about page, scroll down, I don't know
that recorders and you'll feel week and uh to our
website and you can also we just said eight three
zero three seven seven two one three one.

Speaker 3 (01:33:11):
Okay, And the makeup for never having a clip before
your little bit like I was trying to do for Bill.

Speaker 4 (01:33:18):
Here we go for you, a short little clip.

Speaker 11 (01:33:38):
Jy so making expanding. The first time I saw you,

(01:34:04):
I just had to make you man. But it's so
hard to talk to you with fellaws hanging around you
all the time.

Speaker 3 (01:34:20):
All right, I think you got the point. I thought
you would like that, all right, take it away. The
chef is in the kitchen.

Speaker 6 (01:34:33):
Well, this is an order I mean, you can do
it for just whatever, for maybe Thanksgiving, you know, a
little treat before dinner. But this is cheesy thumbprint appetizers
with hot jelly. And you know you've seen the thumb

(01:34:54):
print cookies. You know, most of the time they have
like a you know, raspberry or or strawberry jam. But
this is a savory version. And it's a cup of
shredded sharp cheddar cheese. And I don't think I mentioned
this in a while. You win, you want to avoid

(01:35:16):
the already shredded cheese. And I know the stuff that
shredded is so convenient, but they have to dust it
with flour or potato starch or something else to keep
it from sticking together, or it would just be one clump,

(01:35:36):
you know, in that bag hanging from that hook. So
what I generally do is I buy generally two pretty
good sized blocks of cheese at a time. I pull
out my food processor and I put in my shredding

(01:35:58):
disk and a gray dis if you will, and I
fill up a gallon bagging. And you could do it
in small ones, but I don't know. One day last
week I did tacos, so I took my big bag
of cheese out maybe thirty minutes before I was gonna

(01:36:19):
need it, and it was fine. You could reach in
there and just crumble some off and it wasn't frozen,
it was cold. And that's how I do it to
save time. So a cup of the shredded chart sharp
shaded cheese and four ounces of cream cheese, and I

(01:36:43):
need to see how many this makes. My apologies. You
could always double this easily, you know, for a crab,
and it's not really the same. Maybe it'll mention it
half a cup of unsalted butter softened and then a
cup of all purpose flour, whether it's iron corn flour

(01:37:06):
or Sunrise mail or whatever ancient grain flour you wanted
to use. Teaspoon of good Celtic sea salt and wine
on earth that says, a quarter of a teaspoon of
garlic powder optional. I would I would never know a
third of a cup of hot pepper jelly, and I

(01:37:31):
like the steams hot pepper jelly. You're seeing it more
often in you know, bigger stores, but I have seen
it on Amazon. And then you know, some fresh thime
leaves or chopped parsley or even chips, whatever you wanted.

(01:37:52):
And so pretty easy. Now, you got to have your
cream cheese softened, so you're gonna whip your cream cheese
and butter together. You can you do this with an
electric you know, hand mixer, and then once it gets smooth,
you're gonna add your chaddar cheese to that and just

(01:38:14):
fully incorporated. I might do that by hand with a
speciala and then gradually start adding in your flour, your salt,
and your garlic powder, and then mix it until it
just comes together. It shouldn't be real saw, it shouldn't
be real sticky. It will be soft. And so the

(01:38:39):
success of keeping your little thumb prints shape, if you will,
is chilling it. I've chilled it for an hour, and
if I'm doing it for like a special occasion, I'll
just go ahead and do it the day before and
put it into a ball shape. Or you can do it.

(01:39:01):
You can flatten it out a little bit, put it
in a baggie, put it in the fridge overnight, and
so then when you're ready to and what that does
is it keeps it from spreading out too far on
your parchment paper. So you're going to preheat your oven
to three seventy five, which makes sense, you want to
cook these pretty quick so that they will keep their shape,

(01:39:25):
and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and then
remove your dough from the fridge and make like one
inch balls and just place them on your cookie sheet
about two inches apart. Then you're going to take the
back of a teaspoon or your thumb and gently press

(01:39:50):
indentions into them. Makes sense since they call thumb prints,
and just enough to make a little well for your
hot jelly. And so you're going to put about a
half of a teaspoon of this in each little indention.

(01:40:11):
Don't overfell it because it's gonna bubble up slightly and
it'll want to go over You want your presentation to
look nice. Either way, they're gonna taste good. Bake them
for like thirteen to fifteen minutes until you just start
seeing the edge get gold and brown. And this is
gonna happen because of the of the cheese. Remove them

(01:40:36):
and let them cool on a wire rack for about
fifteen minutes. You don't ever want to leave cookies or
a recipe like this sitting on the hot cookie sheet,
because it's going to keep cooking and it's not just
a showing If you will oh, look at me, I'm

(01:41:01):
transferring my cookies to a wire rack. It really honestly works.
They start cooling down and you just get you get
a better product in the end. And so you know,
let them cool for maybe about five minutes and then
sprinkle one with some fresh time or parsley or even chips,

(01:41:26):
and that's it. I said, it was simple. There you go.

Speaker 4 (01:41:31):
Yeah, for a change. I can almost see you cooking
that for me.

Speaker 6 (01:41:38):
I don't think that the jelly would mail very well.

Speaker 3 (01:41:41):
Unfortunately, Oh, I wanted to tell you, Susy, I went
to a TV. I still can't figure out their system
because online it says clip coupon for in store. What
do you do when you clip that coupon? Does it
go on your phone and you got to go in
and show the phone or what.

Speaker 6 (01:42:02):
You'll show. I like to have my HGB app opened
before I ever even get in the store because I
think they have Wi Fi there, but I don't want
to mess with it. And on the app on your
phone where it says clipped cupons and then you click

(01:42:24):
on that and then you just show it to the
cashier and she scans each one of them.

Speaker 4 (01:42:31):
I hate that I did go. I did go. You
were right.

Speaker 3 (01:42:35):
They had uncured all natural ham, big enough for three
or four people for like twenty bucks.

Speaker 4 (01:42:48):
I mean, the price was better than I've seen anywhere.

Speaker 3 (01:42:51):
Kroger used to carry Simple Truth organic uncured natural ham,
and my friend there that I know that does the
meat mark the meat department, he said that was his
best seller, and they quit carrying it. They used to
have Simple Truth organic biscuits. They quit carrying it. I've

(01:43:16):
noticed if I buy it, they quit carrying it. And
I'm not figuring this out.

Speaker 6 (01:43:22):
Yeah, and then they got they've got some smaller ones too.
I like to get the bit the twenty dollars one,
but then they've got some small little ones that are
apple wood smoked, uncured. They got pepper and then on peppered.

Speaker 4 (01:43:37):
Well, it was great.

Speaker 3 (01:43:38):
I go in there and I get my orange juice,
and uh, this time they had lemonade not pasteurized.

Speaker 4 (01:43:46):
And it's so funny.

Speaker 3 (01:43:47):
The warning on the back of their if you drink this,
you're gonna die, and we want you to know that
it's that bad and we're gonna charge you for it anyway.
Just crazy. I mean, they don't understand pasteurization. They don't
understand vaccines. They don't understand canola oil. Oh, I was

(01:44:12):
so proud, guys. I was watching the show and they
were talking about I don't know if it was a
recipe or a product they had, and it's said in
the commercial, no canola oil.

Speaker 4 (01:44:31):
So somebody somebody has wised up.

Speaker 6 (01:44:34):
What product do you remember?

Speaker 3 (01:44:37):
No, I've but next time I see it, I'll write
it down. It was so funny because I said, I
told Cheryl, look, no canola oil, and of course she
missed it. But at least she wasn't interrupting me during
a baseball game, John Wayne or General Patton or something
like that, So it was all right, Thank God for Booze.

Speaker 4 (01:45:05):
Bill.

Speaker 3 (01:45:05):
Anything on Susie's the recipe or any other silly thing
that we're talking about.

Speaker 7 (01:45:11):
No, I hadn't heard about some kind of Turkish forever.
That was just a real flashback. It's interesting.

Speaker 3 (01:45:22):
Yeah, Susie's the kind of woman, guys, if you haven't
tuned into the show that much, the power could go
out and she'd still be cooking for two weeks before
she even was bothered.

Speaker 2 (01:45:36):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:45:37):
And then Hunley, God bless his soul, he'd probably be
out there chopping wood, getting the fire ready because he's
going to fire up the grill.

Speaker 4 (01:45:46):
So she just keep on cooking. This is the original.

Speaker 3 (01:45:50):
She gets a little sideways when I remind her that
she's a lot like Granting on the Beverly Hillbillies.

Speaker 4 (01:45:58):
She's just younger.

Speaker 3 (01:46:00):
She's somewhere between Elie May and Granny. But Granny could
do stuff and Susie can do stuff.

Speaker 6 (01:46:06):
I don't cook with possum fat.

Speaker 4 (01:46:11):
Well you should. Granny would never do it if it
wasn't good.

Speaker 6 (01:46:16):
Well, you know, in Texas, the air conditioning loves to
go out in August. Like there's a chip built into
your AC units. It's selling Texas, Texas go out in August.
And so that happened one year, and we had one

(01:46:37):
of our best friends coming down from Dallas with a
unit to put it in. COVID, No, not COVID, the
protocol rim Desaverir and Vino latter killed him. So I
think everyone's got a story like that, But I digress.

(01:46:57):
So he was coming in, we didn't want to leave,
and I was never been so thankful for the propane
gas grill that had the side burner, and I just
dreamed up something, you know, through it together, maybe sausage

(01:47:18):
and onions and bell Pepper's is kind of what I remember.
And just took it outside to the grill and cooked
it right there on top of the propane burner. I
mean it was under the shade. It was horrible, horrible,
but it was better than cooking in the house and
adding more heat. So yeah, I can be a pioneer woman.

Speaker 4 (01:47:41):
You are. You can't even help it. You don't even
realize it. I did not know this.

Speaker 3 (01:47:46):
I was watching and I think you've talked about it before,
but I was watching something that the reason the kitchens
were far removed from the rest of the house because
our already hot enough, and you cook up that kitchen,
get it real warm, the rest of the house.

Speaker 4 (01:48:04):
Will be smoking.

Speaker 3 (01:48:05):
But you know, when you grew up as a kid,
and most of us are at the age where they
probably didn't have all those comforts, and you got used
to that, and you were outside a lot anyway, so
that you adjust to it. Like I talked to my
mom and she acts like, oh, it's too cold or
it's too hot. I said, Mom, you used to be

(01:48:28):
out in it all the time and you never thought
nothing about it.

Speaker 4 (01:48:31):
Cars didn't have air conditioning.

Speaker 3 (01:48:33):
I remember the house I grew up in as a kid,
we had a giant ceiling fan. I mean, I thought
it was like a helicopter going to take the roof
for he by bike, and it pulled so much air
through that it was pretty comfortable. But we didn't know
anything else, you know, we never had air conditioning on

(01:48:55):
the school bus or air conditioning at the school. And
god forbid you try to tell them nuns it was
too hot. They're wearing it all that horrible. I don't
know how they got through it. That had to be terrible.
But I remember coming home and we had a little
window in it in the dining room, and that.

Speaker 4 (01:49:14):
Was that was amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:49:16):
And then of course after I left and joined the Navy,
they put in central air.

Speaker 4 (01:49:21):
I wonder I have a complex, right.

Speaker 6 (01:49:24):
I remember when I was in grade school, just before
middle school, my dad was in Vietnam and we lived
in my grandfather's rental and it had a swamp cooler.
So I don't know how many people can say they
lived with a swamp cooler.

Speaker 4 (01:49:45):
I've got one in the garage. You put water in.

Speaker 3 (01:49:47):
The bottom and it takes it across this coil and
you hit there's a little picture of a snow flake.
I don't know how it works, but it makes a
little cooler bringing it across the coil.

Speaker 4 (01:50:04):
Bill.

Speaker 3 (01:50:05):
How about you, when did you have your first air
conditioner experience?

Speaker 7 (01:50:12):
Yeah, we're just trying to remember as you were talking
about that. It was, Oh, I think, yeah, I think
we had a window unit. Finally when I was at
the end of high school.

Speaker 4 (01:50:23):
Yeah, that's about what.

Speaker 7 (01:50:25):
Yeah, I had window fans and UH had a fan
unit that was in a it was like a foot rest,
and I had a circular fan that.

Speaker 4 (01:50:37):
Yeah. Oh I remember the air a rabbit.

Speaker 7 (01:50:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:50:42):
Yeah, Well that ceiling fan we had in the hallway
was like a helicopter. You turned that thing on and
the house had airflow. But you know, it's funny growing
up as a kid. I don't remember what grade I
was in, but we never had color TV, and it
wasn't real popular when I was a kid, and I

(01:51:03):
got to thinking, you know, that wasn't that long ago.
Of course, I'm older than I think sometimes, But we
came home one day and there was a new TV
sitting in the living room and we turned it on
and the picture was so fabulous. But we weren't sure

(01:51:25):
if it was in color or not because we'd never
had one, and it turned out it was a black
and white TV. But the picture was so clear and
crisp compared to what we had had. And the man
that raised me worked for Sears, and he bought it.
He got it there. He always was getting deals, so

(01:51:48):
but it was really nice.

Speaker 4 (01:51:50):
And then just the window unit did so much.

Speaker 3 (01:51:54):
And we had a basement up there, so that was
nice because my brother and I had a room them
downstairs eventually. And your basement is all concrete, it stays
a lot cooler, and uh it's a little cold in
the wintertime, but a lot cooler in the summer, a
lot better than being upstairs.

Speaker 6 (01:52:16):
Now, my grandparents everything was Sears. The fridge, the stove,
they had three window units, they had a deep freeze,
they had a television, probably their living room furniture and
they had if you remember, all of this blonde wood,
like you know, the headboard and the dresser and everything

(01:52:41):
was Sears. And you know, when he and I first
got married, my grandmother had had several heart attacks. My
dad wanted to bring her to our family house, and
so we stayed in my grandmother's house. And I remember
when the wind unit in the dining room went out,

(01:53:02):
and so I called and I told him, she goes,
no big deal, here's the number. Call Sears. It's got warranty.
And they went out like the next day, and she
was paying these little teeny tiny, I don't know, three
or four dollars on each appliance, you know, to make
sure that they were all covered. So yeah, but she

(01:53:25):
called it Sears roebucking company.

Speaker 4 (01:53:28):
Yeah, that was the name.

Speaker 3 (01:53:29):
And you know what's so sad about Sears and Bill,
I'm sure you remember this.

Speaker 4 (01:53:34):
There was a.

Speaker 3 (01:53:34):
Time you could buy an entire house kit and they
would send it to your property and you could put
your house together. And Sears had everything. They had motorcycles, furniture.

Speaker 4 (01:53:47):
I mean, you name it.

Speaker 3 (01:53:49):
And they had a catalog that was amazing. But for
some reason, when the world shifted to online products, somebody
at Sears didn't shift gears right, and they kind of
drifted away. I mean, you would think anybody that could

(01:54:12):
have a catalog that good could have just melted away
into the electronic age with online ordering and been a giant,
But they faded away.

Speaker 4 (01:54:23):
It killed them.

Speaker 6 (01:54:25):
Well, you could drive around still in Fredericksburg and see
the Seers houses. There's a lot of them in Fredericksburg.
Stephen probably has seen them or knows what I'm talking about.
Of course they get torn down and you know, a
mini mansions built, you know, on the lot. But I

(01:54:49):
was shocked when we moved here seeing how many Seers
houses there were. But here's the funny. I learned this
two days ago and it really really offended me to
find out that I was older than zip codes. And
zip codes were established in nineteen sixty three. So if

(01:55:13):
you're older than zip codes, I'm sorry.

Speaker 4 (01:55:20):
Well I hate to.

Speaker 3 (01:55:20):
Break it to you, but there's a lot of things
you're older with the come on now, all right, well
we're at that time of the night, Susie anything.

Speaker 6 (01:55:35):
Well, yeah, I could say lots of things, but I
am going to say what comes with age is wisdom.
So it sucks not to be me. But other than that,
head over to our rumble channel doctor crouper dot com.
Do a search. You'll find it and give us a

(01:55:56):
follow on that. It helps get to show out.

Speaker 3 (01:56:02):
Yeah, we've had a lot of listeners there. We were
doing really good on our upload to all those other places.
But we had a little hiccup on Monday, and so
I was behind a little bit, and Monday is always
a big day for our show, so we're a little

(01:56:24):
slower there. But the rumble stuff, we've had a lot
of listeners. It's been really great. So I'm so grateful
to everybody. All right, Bill, you got anything to close out?

Speaker 7 (01:56:38):
Well, yeah, just kind of make an evendation to this
is the assertion that age brings wisdom. Might I think
it brings the possibility for wisdom.

Speaker 4 (01:56:49):
There you go, oh funny, oh funny.

Speaker 6 (01:56:53):
Have to be predisposed to that.

Speaker 4 (01:56:56):
Well, you know, they say, I forget who said this,
but they say that.

Speaker 3 (01:57:08):
Knowledge it comes from making a lot of mistakes, and
if it wasn't for all them mistakes, you wouldn't have
that knowledge. And bad decisions help you make good decisions
later because you learn from a lot of things. Just
like Andy Rooney, I think he used to be on

(01:57:31):
sixty Minutes or something one hundred years ago, yep.

Speaker 4 (01:57:34):
But he always said people would say you're being prejudiced, you're.

Speaker 3 (01:57:41):
Not liking somebody of something, And Andy said, no, he
said that word is prejudge, and you prejudge from past experiences.
If they were good, you have a good prejudice. If
they were bad, you have a bad prejudice. But it's
a good thing. And I always remember that, and it

(01:58:02):
stuck in my mind because that's what happens if you're
like a lot of people are nervous about racist I
was in the Navy and we were with every type
person you can imagine, and nobody had any problems. But
if you go downtown to an inner city where the
government's been controlling things and only the bad guys have guns,

(01:58:26):
like Chicago, you're liable to have a bad experience. And
from then on you could prejudge that inner cities might
be a little dangerous. That would not be a bad thing.
That would just be something that you were blessed with
to learn. So anyway, it is so great, guys. The

(01:58:47):
place mats are wonderful. Sissy's feeling a lot better. Bill
hung up on me again, but we're going to work
on that. I'm gonna get you. I'm gonna talk to
elon Musk can see if we can't get.

Speaker 4 (01:59:02):
You one of his new phones. Bill. It works. It
works without Wi Fi or towers.

Speaker 3 (01:59:10):
He picks up satellites and probably got a station on
Mars already.

Speaker 4 (01:59:15):
And you won't be able to hang up then.

Speaker 7 (01:59:18):
So well, he's one other quick thing you talked about
Sears catalogs, and anybody who's who ever has had any
experience with outdoor plumbing has a great memory for Shears catalogs.

Speaker 4 (01:59:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:59:33):
That and how many people grab poison ivy leafs and live.

Speaker 2 (01:59:37):
To regret it?

Speaker 3 (01:59:39):
Oh yeah, that's one thing that I wish I never
knew about.

Speaker 4 (01:59:44):
Was outhouses not a good time?

Speaker 2 (01:59:48):
All right?

Speaker 7 (01:59:48):
Well it beats you alternative.

Speaker 4 (01:59:51):
Right, Yeah, I get.

Speaker 3 (01:59:55):
All right, guys, Well, thank you so much. I am
so grateful to Steve, Sizzy and Bill Well. I know
my audience out there loves you guys as much as
I do. And we are definitely a team. And without
this team, the show would not be anything like it is.
It is all of us, and I am so grateful.

Speaker 4 (02:00:15):
So we thank all of you.

Speaker 3 (02:00:16):
We had like I don't know, eleven or twelve countries
listening and we're so grateful for that. And we get
the news show posted usually in the morning, and I
apologize for last Monday. I should have stayed more on
top of it and that just sometimes things slip by.

Speaker 4 (02:00:38):
But We're doing pretty good. We got a great team.

Speaker 3 (02:00:41):
I'm so grateful for all you out there listening, And
I hope we put a smile on your face and
give you something to think about and a cool recipe
and a neat weekly topic. And like tonight's thing about
the gut, I hope that helps you some and how
to live a healthier, happier life. So may God bless

(02:01:03):
you all with health and happiness, keep your lives peaceful,
free and safe. And it is time for good Scotch,
good cigars, and good night.

Speaker 6 (02:01:20):
Good Not at all, not anyone, God bless.

Speaker 12 (02:01:24):
Seems the love I've known has always been the most
destructive kind. Yes, that's why now I feel so old
before my time. Yesterday, when I was young, the taste

(02:01:45):
of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue. I
teased at life as if it were a foolish game,
the way that even breathes may tease a candle flash.
The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned.

Speaker 4 (02:02:06):
I always built to last on weekend.

Speaker 2 (02:02:09):
Shifting sand.

Speaker 4 (02:02:12):
I lived by night and.

Speaker 5 (02:02:14):
Shunned the naked light of day.

Speaker 12 (02:02:17):
And only now I see how the years ran away.

Speaker 9 (02:02:22):
Yesterday, when I was
