Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go.

Speaker 2 (00:00):
It is the Eddie and Rocky Show. Eddie is out.
But alongside Donna, Donna, how are you, I'm good?

Speaker 3 (00:05):
How are you?

Speaker 2 (00:06):
I'm excellent. We always have good conversations right before we
go on air about god knows what and someone like that,
some of which we'll touch on during the course of
the show, but if you are just tuning in, The
Mighty Reds fell today to the Marlins eight to one.
They split the four game set, and I mean they
had a chance at the end two on, no out,

(00:28):
bottom of the ninth, got nothing out of it. And
I mean it's it's the typical problem of the Reds,
even this year, even though they've been winning and last
year and the year before, it's scoring runs. They were
zero for ten with runners in scoring position. The lone
run came a home run by salth Stewart, who's been phenomenal,
which is great. So also, I believe there's four errors

(00:52):
by the Reds, so that's not good. For a while
there they were the only team in baseball that had
no errors. Oh man, so kind of crept up and
got them. Today. The kickoff a four game or shoot
me a three games series with the Angels Tomorrow six
forty start Chase Burns Well gets the gets the start.

(01:13):
What do you think of the Sincy Connect uniforms? I
like them.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
I like pin stripes. I like the red colors.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
So obviously, I mean we were talking about they were
all black and now so it's nice to bring back
the Yeah, red, I like it.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
I like them too. And if you had told me, like,
because I'm not like a big red guy, me neither
partly because I got red hairs them anyway, But if
you had told me without seeing them, all the resid
have like all red uniforms, red hat, red pants. Like god,
that's ugly, but I like them.

Speaker 4 (01:42):
Yeah, it looks sharp and it's a nice contrast from
last year. So the new uniforms look good in my opinion.
Eight out of ten.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Yeah, eight out of ten. Right, Well, we'll take that,
so hopefully we get back to their winning ways.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
Wait, what's this? What's the total score?

Speaker 5 (01:56):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Eight?

Speaker 3 (01:56):
And we were eighty five five.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
And I believe I don't know what the Brewers did today,
but I believe they're tied or maybe just behind the
Brewers top of the NL Central.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
So pretty good.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Yeah, we'll take it and keep you don't keep pitching well.
It didn't pitch well today, but you know, most of
the year they've pitched well, even without Hunter and Greens.
So we shall see.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
When do you think we're going to start, like really
evaluating whether or not this team is going to be good?

Speaker 3 (02:26):
Does is it in the thirty game range thirty five forty?

Speaker 4 (02:29):
I mean, because I know we have a long way
to go, But when do you start saying, Okay, this
team has potential or we got to do something.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
I mean, the big one is always where they at
at the All Star break right in July, because if
they're in contention, they're right there. That traditionally means a
team is going to make some deals and and load
up on whatever they're deficient in and try to make
a round, right, So you definitely got to be I
think the Reds last year at the All Star break,
we're like third, if they could be first or second.

(02:57):
And then okay, all right, good, we're we're in striking distance.
Let's make a couple moves, get a bat, get a picture,
get an arm, whatever it is. But yeah, I mean,
it is kind of the and that's what makes baseball
unique is it's so long sometimes, you know, terribly long.

Speaker 4 (03:14):
You forget that they're even right, servents came on today.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Yeah, it's just amazing how over one hundred and sixty
two game season. I think by this all the time
that you know it, even with all those games, it
still comes down to like one or two games that
you didn't win, right, three games. It's crazy because then
you know you're like, all right, well we didn't win today. Whatever,
we play tomorrow and the next day, the next day,
but you know you got you gotta win them when

(03:39):
when you can, because at the end, it all comes,
it all comes into factor.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
Do you think, and I know I'm asking you a
ton of questions, do you think, like I'm interviewing you,
do you think that the guys, the players think it's
such a long season?

Speaker 3 (03:51):
Would they?

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Yeah? Yeah, your body they I mean, but they I
mean kind of like the NFL they play seventeen games,
and I know I played a sixteen game season. That's
a long season now the time I'm going to eighteen.
So you're you're prepared in that. Certainly the veterans, the
baseball veterans, Yeah, and you know, and they knew how

(04:13):
to manage it. You know, you can't be you know,
like all in on today's game, because again it's it's
more of a marathon and not a sprint.

Speaker 6 (04:22):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
I also I've always been an advocate of you know,
cutting about twenty five games off MLB season, and that
would make each game mean a little bit more. Certainly
from a fans perspective, they never will because of the
green let us of salvation Donna. But yeah, anyway, so yeah,
so I mean, I think, you know, I think another

(04:45):
what is it April? Yeah, get into like you know,
end of May June. You know, I think you start
to see a little bit of Okay, is this team
for Rio or not? An answer to your question, Yeah,
In other news, Donna on this day in history night
eeteen seventy seven, and I can see it in my
eyes right now, young Donnade was dancing to this. Oh yes,

(05:08):

part of the day, dry most of the day, and
then Friday night showers likely later in the evening around
eight pm or so. Cold front will knock down the

a good friend Pjstreet And the topic Donna is simplest
diet ever, Right, That's kind of one of the problems with dieting
is what do I do? What do I get? And
it's complicated and I got to do this and do that.

(08:44):
He's going to second Mint. Simpler simple was always good.
Now you had a watershed moment today, don talk about
it putting you on the spot. I would like you
to share with the listeners what happened.

Speaker 4 (08:56):
Okay, this was a horrifying moment for me. It really is,
because as I am a huge Kroger fan, I get
Kroger delivery all the time. It's one of the greatest inventions.
I got an email saying on April eighth, which was yesterday,
which I got a Kroger delivery, that they are bringing
back the senior citizen discount.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
Right which I qualify.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
And if everyone could have seen her face as she
was looking this up, it was like, wait a minute,
it was confusion, then a little bit of anger, hilariousness.

Speaker 4 (09:31):
I would give that five percent back any day to
not have bread.

Speaker 3 (09:36):
That email.

Speaker 4 (09:36):
Fifty five years old is seeing citizens.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
Out Usually sixty five is kind of a general of Okay,
you're you know, you're kind of older.

Speaker 10 (09:45):
Now.

Speaker 4 (09:45):
This is the first time I qualified for a senior
citizen discount, and it felt a little uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
And what is a discount much?

Speaker 3 (09:53):
Five percent on?

Speaker 4 (09:55):
Just on on April eighth, so yesterday, Okay, but you.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
Got grocery delivery, so I bess you can retroactively.

Speaker 4 (10:02):
I'm going to I mean, if I'm going to get
that email that horrified me, I'm going to get my
five percent.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
Now you're going to be added to the Geezer email.
So worth it.

Speaker 4 (10:13):
I thought senior citizen was like retirement age. I still
got ten years at least to work. Oh yeah, and
you're way far away from it.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
I would take the discount age. Is only a number
that's for them to.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
Until you get it.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
Yeah, I know. I'm fighting like hell every day. Speaking
of the elderlyship, I tried a story here. A Maryland
man is trying to become the oldest college football player
of all time at age sixty one.

Speaker 3 (10:44):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Okay, so let's go through this here. Look us up. So,
there have been forty excuse me, sixty one NFL players
in history that have played a game after turning forty. Okay.
George Blanda, of course, holds the record for the oldest
one of all the time he suited up for the
Raiders at the age of forty eight in nineteen seventy five.

(11:05):
So and again, most of the folks over forty are kickers, punters, quarterbacks.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
They're not in the whole game or they're not running
or you know.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Yeah, I mean I remember when I was the Titans,
we brought on Gary Anderson, who was a kicker who
was forty wow something old. He also was the last
guy in NFL history to wear the single bar face mask. Wow,
we all got pictures with it.

Speaker 3 (11:30):
Honest, wasn't Tom bra How old was Tom Brady when
he retire?

Speaker 2 (11:33):
He was in his forties? Oh yeah, he's yeah, so
he was mid forties. Yeah yeah. So anyway, so I
get when it comes to let's see, when it comes
to college football, there's been seven guys forty or older
that have played one snap, okay, which I would have
lost a bet on that, although you are increasingly seen,

(11:55):
I mean I call it a game with an eighth
year senior. Yeah, a couple of years ago, and especially
the transfer portal, and somehow people are still getting COVID
years even though it was like a million years ago. Anyway,
but that number could grow to eight if our guy
here and his name is Joe Thomas Senior, okay, or no,
excuse me, I'm sorry, So this guy's name is Tom Green, Okay,

(12:20):
So it's just more history here in twenty sixteen at
Joe Thomas Senior became the oldest player to ever take
a Division one snap. He rushed for three yards for
South Carolina State during an FCS showdown against Savannah State. Okay,
and there's another guy, and this guy Tom Green, He's
given it a go here. He's currently practicing with a

(12:41):
Division three McDaniel College in Westminster, Maryland, in hopes of
taking the field when they kick off the twenty twenty
six seasons. So he is sixty right now, but by
the time the season would come around, he would be
sixty one, and his birthday puts him as would be
the oldest college football player of all time time. So

(13:01):
he never went to college before, survived kidney cancer in
the twenty tens, enrolled at the school last year in
pursuit of a political science degree. He currently owns like
a wood palette company, So he's just like, hey, you know,
survive cancer, man, Let's let's let's do something crazy. Yeah.

(13:22):
He told the News that he had played semi pro
in the past and decided to make it a goal
of his uh to become the record holder of the
oldest college football player to take a snap when he
turns sixty one in June and here's the thing. He
wants to play defensive end, which is again usually usually

(13:42):
it's a kicker, it's a punda something like that. Now, listen,
he met six one two forty five, which for defense
D three, he'd be a he'd be a bigger guy.
Like not, he'd be about normal for a D end
sixty one, Like I'm I am forty six. Yeah, okay,

(14:03):
I'm in pretty good shape. Yeah. And you know, and
played in the NFL, and and I don't know if
I could play a full game.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
Are they saying you have to play a full game?

Speaker 2 (14:12):
No, he just has to take a snack.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
Okay, So so it could take a one play.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
I think it's not in the NFL. Yeah, right, But
for this guy's sixty one to do it a lot,
that's that's pretty It's pretty interesting. I shouldn't get hurt,
That's what I was going to say, an achilles or something.

Speaker 4 (14:28):
Or if if some guys are a little tough on
him to say, look, oh man, you don't need to
be in here, right, definitely are Yeah. I remember when
I was young, I wanted to play with the boys.
I wanted to play football. And this one guy, he
was like, no, put down in because I was like,
on the sideline, I want to play.

Speaker 3 (14:42):
I want to play. Put me in. He tackled me
so hard. I said, I'm never doing that.

Speaker 4 (14:48):
He's message real quick, put her in.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
Yeah, it for me. I got to say, my biggest
fear at this stage of my life is tearing achilles.
I like to be pretty active and I want to
be and stuff, you know, run around with the you know, kids,
and then I coach and stuff. But in my back
of my head, I'm like, don't do it.

Speaker 11 (15:08):
Just don't do it.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
Yeah, that would hurt. That's a tough one.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
And that's like one of the toughest interies that come
back from because it don't come back, especially Yeah, at
my age. All right, So, uh so let's see here
at five o'clock, we've got a guest coming on and
talk about AI and how about this for a headline,
AI is cutting sixteen thousand jobs a month. We've got

(15:32):
a good expert on again. That'll be five o'clock. That's
Jennifer Brackley. But we'll go to the top of the
hour news right now, and then when we come back,
we'll get PJ. Street. And the topic is the simplest diet. Ever,
That's always the thing with diets is you know, how
do you you know it's got to be this and
all sounds of complicated ingredients and you just lose out

(15:54):
of sheer, just over overwhelmed exhaustion. You say, hell with it.

Speaker 12 (15:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:59):

So we always like to check in with our good
friend PJ Street, our fitness and wellness guy, PJ. How
are you, boss keyan Donna?

Speaker 12 (23:09):
How are you?

Speaker 2 (23:09):
I'm good, We are good. So you and I were
talking Earli this morning, PJ. And look, the hard part
about dieting is, you know, it can become complex, right,
and sometimes people get bogged down and all the complexities
and this and that. Is there a simple diet out there, PJ?
Or at least some simple guidelines that we can follow

(23:30):
if we are someone that wants to diet.

Speaker 22 (23:33):
Yeah, So several months back, I kind of came up
with this thing that I named the no decision diet
because you know, as you can imagine, I'm always getting
asked by busy parents and professionals who are juggling a
lot of balls in their lives for you know, the simplest,
no thinking required diet that's going to help them lose

(23:54):
weight and shape all that stuff. You know, it's got
to be easy, and it's got to be quick, and
it's something that you can really just default to without
overthinking it, and something that you can really just put
on autopilots. So that's what I'm gonna talk about today.
So this is gonna kind of be your no decision,
no thinking required way to eat that it will take
you about twenty minutes a day, and that will fit

(24:16):
your busy life. So this is this is the meat
and potatoes of it. You're gonna eat one pound of
lean protein. That's that's raw weight, right, one pound of
lean protein to day. And it just so happens that
most lean protein happened it comes in one pound packets, right,
So it works out pretty easily that way. Okay, and

(24:37):
then you're going do you guys know those those microwave
rice pouches and rice trays you know.

Speaker 11 (24:43):
I'm talking about. Yeah, all right, so you're gonna have
two of those a day.

Speaker 22 (24:46):
So one pound of lean protein one or two microwave
rice trays or rice packets. That's it. That's that's that's
the foundational anchor of your nutrition. And what that's gonna do, guys,
that's going to provide about six to seven hundred calories
from protein and then another six to seven hundred calories

(25:07):
from from carbs from the rice, so that that puts
you right around may twelve to fourteen hundred calories total
it's going to ensure that you get one hundred plus
grams of protein, about one hundred and fifty ish grams
of carbs, and about twenty to.

Speaker 11 (25:22):
Thirty grams of fat.

Speaker 22 (25:23):
And again, you can microwave this rice in sixty to
ninety seconds. You can cook up a pound of lean
protein in probably fifteen to twenty minutes tops, and there's
really no thinking required.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
Gotcha, p just curious what is a pound of protein,
whether it's you know, ground beef, you know, ground turkey,
ground chicken, what is how much protein is in that? Typically,
so a pound.

Speaker 22 (25:47):
You're going to get roughly one hundred grands of protein.
So I'm glad you asked that, Rock, because okay, what
do I mean by le Lean protein is a lot
of some you know a lot of people don't know.
Lean protein would be things like chicken, breast, deli, turkey,
ground turkey, ground chicken, lean ground beef, white fish, shrimp.

Speaker 11 (26:11):
Pork tend to win.

Speaker 22 (26:12):
So basically anything that that's mostly protein with minimal minimal fat,
it counts all right, So you don't don't overthink it now,
stuff like salmon, chicken, thighs, you know, fat of your
cuts of beef that's not going to work here. But
but the reason I like this, guys, is because, well
people say, man, that's there's no variety in that diet.

Speaker 11 (26:33):
Well, if you if you.

Speaker 22 (26:33):
Look at it, that there there can be. There's plenty
of different combinations you can put together. You know, shrimp
and rice, beef and rice, chicken and rice, you know whatever.
And then there's all types of rice too, right, you
got white rice, you got jason and rice, you got
brown rice, you got cilantro rice, you got Spanish rice.
So there's all kinds of ways that you can put

(26:54):
this together. And again, this works because it removes to
and fatigue. Most people, in my experience, they don't struggle
because they don't know what to eat. They struggle because
they're making food decisions all day long within the confine
of a normal, hectic adult life, especially at night when

(27:15):
when they're tired in their stress. So this just kind
of gives you a default and again a foundational anchor
for your nutrition.

Speaker 4 (27:22):
No, and you know, PJ Love when you're on with
Rocky and Eddie and I always want to I always
want to call in questions because I always have a
million of employer fair a way Okay, so this kind
of sounds like the Albert Einstein diet, because Albert Einstein
wore the same outfit every single day of his life
because he didn't want to overthink and spend time, you know,

(27:43):
worried about what he was going to wear. So this
kind of I mean when you said no decision diet,
this is as easy as a guess. One pound lead
protein and then two packets of rice and that's what
you have.

Speaker 3 (27:53):
Do you include?

Speaker 4 (27:54):
So the question I have for you is like, can
can you add coffee?

Speaker 3 (27:58):
And do you feel like coffee is good or bad
for you?

Speaker 11 (28:02):
Coffee is great for you, you know.

Speaker 22 (28:04):
But again I'm not talking about the seven hundred calory
uh mocha frappuccino whatever from your.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
Right right.

Speaker 22 (28:12):
I'm talking about black coffee is terrific and it also
actually counts towards your your daily hydration.

Speaker 11 (28:18):
People don't know that. They think it's it dehydrates you.
It doesn't.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
So stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
Let me let me we have to we have to
go back to that.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
I have always heard coffee dehydrates you. That is not
a true statement.

Speaker 22 (28:33):
Okay, so it is a diuretic, but the amount put
it this way, the amount that you're going to pee
out is not going to override the water content of
the coffee itself.

Speaker 11 (28:42):
Does that make sense?

Speaker 2 (28:43):
Yes it does.

Speaker 22 (28:45):
Yes, technically it's a diuretic, but it's not like, you know,
the water content of the coffee is going to override
what you're peeing out from that.

Speaker 11 (28:53):
So that's.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
I was just gonna ask. With one pound of lean
protein and two packs of rice, am I allowed to
put any seasoning or sauce or something on the on
the on the chicken or I gotta eat it dry?

Speaker 11 (29:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 22 (29:10):
No, So you can absolutely season it all right, And again,
like I said, any any flavor of variety of rice
will work. Obviously, you have to cook the protein. Somebody
asked me that on social media, like I'm gonna eat
rall protein? Like, no, you cook it, you just buy
it roll. You shouldn't have to tell people this.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
Yeah, I would let that plane go.

Speaker 11 (29:31):
Yeah, but rock Yeah, I mean that's the thing.

Speaker 22 (29:33):
I mean, I'm a big proponent of having a whole
array of seasonings and rubs in the pantry, and I'm
a big fan of low and no calorie condiments. So
you can add these condiments and sauces onto onto you know,
your your protein and rice bowls as well.

Speaker 11 (29:50):
Uh, one thing I'm because people might be confused.

Speaker 22 (29:55):
This is just the anchor and the foundation of the diet,
and most people need more than twelve hundred calories per day,
which is about what this is going to provide you.
So you can fill in the rest of your daily diet,
you know, with with basically with with whatever you want,
you know, as law as it fits within your calorie budget,
like twelve hundred calories, forteen hundred calories. That would be

(30:17):
enough for one hundred and twenty to one hundred and
thirty pound woman by itself, but for a two hundred
and twenty pound guy, you're going to be starving to death, right,
So you can fill in the rest of it with
whatever you want. But you know, again, the reason I
dont I like what you said about I've never heard
Albert Einstein diet that's really good. But it's true that
the more that you can eliminate, you know, decisions on

(30:38):
a day to day basis with your diet and for
a lot of things for that matter, the better you
the better your results are going to be. If you
look at the way any fit person that you see
people who you know, they are fit, they appear to
be fit, they maintain a healthy body weight, they have
a reasonable body fat percentage. I can guarantee you they

(30:59):
have one thing in common, and they're eating essentially the
same handful of meals on repeat all the time. They
don't have to think about anything.

Speaker 11 (31:07):
It's just eat. They're on autopilot.

Speaker 2 (31:10):
Gotcha. Pjstree is our guests, and PJ do you promote?
You hear a lot of people, especially you know, people
that are working out or you know certainly bodybuilders or
that like like pre making your meals on like a
Sunday and kind of doing the cooking of the of
the protein here we're talking about and getting some of
that out of the way. Is that if you found

(31:31):
that that's helpful for someone as they're trying to adhere
to a diet.

Speaker 22 (31:36):
Yeah, and this would work really well with what I'm
talking about, you could do. I don't call it meal
prep like I'm not. I think going to the extent
to where you're putting, uh, seven days of labeled meals
and tupperware for the whole week.

Speaker 11 (31:50):
You don't have to do.

Speaker 22 (31:51):
That, but I think batch cooking protein like on Sundays
and then again on Wednesdays will go a long, long way,
Like you could. You could put two pounds chicken breasts
and a crockpot on Sunday and probably be good to
go to Wednesday.

Speaker 11 (32:04):
Right.

Speaker 22 (32:05):
So, I'm a fan of ingredient prep, not so much
of the really intensive meal prep. But yeah, for busy
parent professional, the croc pots your friend for protein. But again,
the rice packets take ninety seconds to microwave, and you
can cook up a pound of protein in fifteen to
twenty minutes easily.

Speaker 11 (32:24):
So again, is it fancy, No? Is it exciting?

Speaker 6 (32:28):
No?

Speaker 11 (32:29):
But it is simple. It's fast, and it works, and you're.

Speaker 4 (32:32):
Getting you know, all your micros and macros and all
that stuff with the protein and things like that.

Speaker 3 (32:39):
Adding some vegetables in there might be good though.

Speaker 22 (32:42):
Sure, I'm glad you brought that up though it Yeah, obviously, okay,
all the macros with this diet are met. I love
the hundred grams of protein. It's a very low fat
way to eat, you know, maybe twenty to thirty grams
of fat total, and it's very modern carbohydrate. But you
are going to be seen some micronutrientce so you know, again,

(33:02):
filling in the rest of your diet, you know, within
your calorie budget with non starchy you know, vegetables, is
a great idea. I would definitely take a multi item
and I think everybody should be doing that anyway. But yeah,
but again, this is just like people ask me all
the time, just give me the simplest thing ever, and
I'm like, this is it, man, I'm like, you know,

(33:23):
but the funny thing is people that you know, they'll
ask for structure, and then you give them something like this,
and then they immediately want more variety.

Speaker 11 (33:34):
And then the people that are eating, you know, all
over the place, they're like, I just need some structure.

Speaker 22 (33:38):
So there's a trade off, right, You're gonna have to
sacrifice something.

Speaker 11 (33:43):
But again, I like this because you.

Speaker 22 (33:45):
Have all these different varieties of ice, you have all
these different protein options, and then you have all these
different low and no calorie condiments and seasons and rubs.
I mean, you could have probably one hundred different meals
at your disposal.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
And I like it.

Speaker 22 (34:00):
I like it because you guys know, I'm a proponent
of wayne and measuring food. But with this, there's no
wane anything. There's no apps, there's no constant math. It's
just a simple, repeatable baseline that you can rely on.

Speaker 2 (34:16):

Speaker 2 (36:55):
Choose the name built to a Hires. All right, Welcome
back Rocky alongside Donna d and coming up at five o'clock,
we have Jennifer Badley's going to join US an AI expert.
A new study came out showed AI is cutting sixteen
thousand US jobs a month. And you've done some We'll
save it. But you've done some homework on some of

(37:16):
the big, big companies out there were this is they're
cutting jobs and a lot of it probably has to
do it. Yeah, really scary. So that'll be at five o'clock.
But until then, Donn, you had a great study. We're
coming off of PJ. So this is a perfect kind
of segue into another health time.

Speaker 4 (37:32):
Yea, and I wanted to talk to PJ about it,
but it was all about diet and it was great
conversation with PJ.

Speaker 3 (37:37):
Street on diet.

Speaker 4 (37:38):
But there's a new study that says strengthening your legs
helps decrease Alzheimer's by rocky forty seven percent by half bye,
but almost half. And the title of the article is
don't skip leg Day. So the premise behind it is
the more you work out your legs and the stronger

(37:58):
they are. They're like a pump of blood and oxygen
to your brain that can restore neurons and things like that.
So your legs are super important to keep them strong.
We were talking about this because I said, have you.

Speaker 3 (38:12):
Heard of this?

Speaker 4 (38:13):
And you said, yeah, kind of, but you do squats
every day and so do I like, this is some
of the things that we both talked about that should
be done. Really on a daily basis, you got to
keep your legs strong.

Speaker 21 (38:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
Well, I mean your particular study talks about the effects
positive effects it has on Alzheimer's. But I had talked
about on our show a couple of weeks ago. It
was like, you know, the number one way to decrease
all cause mortality is to have strong legs. And I
think the theory with that is, you know, you can

(38:45):
brace yourself, you're not slipping and falling. And I know
there's a lot of I don't have the numbers in
front of me, but like you know of older people,
you know you're in your especially say if you're slip
and fall, you break a hip, you break an arm,
and then you got to go in there to night.

Speaker 3 (38:59):
That's the decline.

Speaker 2 (39:01):
So if you have strong legs, you can you know,
you can balance better, you can you have a little slip,
you can catch yourself, you know downstairs, you know.

Speaker 4 (39:11):
And and and we talk about this all the time
too with people that have bad knees. If you build
your quadriceps, your knees are gonna get stronger no matter what.
So if you have somebody like I walked with. I
walked with a friend who like two and a half
miles was tough for him for his knees, and I
was like, oh, man, I.

Speaker 3 (39:30):
Mean, you got to build up your quadrceps.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
You got to get those muscles strong, and it's good
for your lower back too. But I was surprised and
not surprised at how How even if you're in cognitive decline,
if you start working out your legs and start getting
your muscles stronger, it will help because through oxygen, blood
moves through oxygen, and you know, what is a stroke

(39:52):
lack of oxygen and blood to the brain. What's a
heart attack lack of oxygen and blood to the heart.
So if you have your legs pumping like they should,
then you're gonna have a good you know who's I mean,
I was so scared about Alzheimer's as you get older
and you see it. So we have really good research
now that you know, get yourself physically fit and keep
it as much as possible.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
Yeah, I mean, your your legs is the biggest muscle group,
you know what I mean? And so so yeah, that's
that's a that's a good one to do. But yeah,
it's no one likes I mean, even high like you
know today, I did legs want to work out? But
you so in the morning I got afterwards. There's no
anybody you have to agree to this. There's no better
feeling than after you've done your legs because you're like,

(40:37):
I really did some work right, Like else.

Speaker 4 (40:39):
Is gravy after this, I've done my leg work out.
Now do you do likes? I know you do squats, right?
Do you do leg press and extensions?

Speaker 3 (40:48):
What do you do?

Speaker 2 (40:50):
I kind of changed up. I still kind of keep
you know, like I belt squat now so I don't
put the bar on my back. So I got a
kind of a jacked up back like one of my
vertebrs kind of stacked anyway, So I, you know, put
the weight now it's on my hip. So I have
a lot of success with that. Do that a lot.
And lunges, you know, just lunges are great.

Speaker 4 (41:10):
Yeah, that's sort of hamstrings for ham strings and stuff.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
Yeah, yeah, you know what you're talking about. Come on
the other in terms of like you know, all cause mortality.
The other thing, it's strong legs and strong grip. I've
talked about that before, and I think number one a
strong grip as an indicator of just overall strength, and
usually stronger people last longer. But also I think it's

(41:37):
again same thing. If you you can catch yourself if
you fall, you can grab something and catch yourself and
before something serious. Yeah, I think that gets the.

Speaker 4 (41:46):
Relation there, hanging from a bar and I watched several
you know, main workout people like PJ would talk probably
talk about this too. Where you're hanging from a bar,
it should be one to two minutes, and that I
tried that that is not easy. That I have to
get better at that. That that is a goal of

(42:07):
mine to because you know, even when you get older
and they have those jar things that that you know,
help older people open up those jars. I don't want
to be one of those. I want to be able
to open it with mine.

We agree on that. Oh, here, let us go the phones.
We have a health related call here. Let's go to
Westchester and talk to Chris. Chris, fire away, guys, this
is what it must be a freaking nature because I
have no high blood pressure, no high cholesterol, I'm not overwel.

Speaker 1 (42:55):
I have a very high mecabolism. I don't have any diabetes,
no nothing. Well, I'm on the far sided into my sixties.
I sleep four hours a day. That's it, that's all.
I've been like that my whole life. I have a
lot of energy, but yet this is my diet. I
eat meat and I eat bread. I eat no vegetables,

(43:16):
no rice, no pasta, no soda, no fruit drinks, no milk,
no no energy drinks, no candy. I don't eat any vegetables,
any fruits. I literally just eat meat and bread. And
the only hydration I get is either black coffee or
iced tea. And I've lived like this.

Speaker 11 (43:37):
My life.

Speaker 1 (43:37):
I've been like this, I mean, and yet I'm in
great shape. But my wife, now we eat healthy, and
doesn't have any under life. It has Type one diabetes.

Speaker 2 (43:46):
Oh my god, Wow, maybe she needs to get on
your diet there, Chris.

Speaker 1 (43:51):
Well, wake up in the morning. I'll eat ham, bacon, sausage,
four eggs, three pieces of toast coffee every morning, but
yet it's all burned off on by lunchtime like it's nothing.
I mean, I have a really high metabolism rate to
where as soon as I eat it, it's burning off
of me.

Speaker 20 (44:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (44:09):
But also, Chris, I think, I think because you're eating
just meat and bread, you're also not getting all the
extra calories that you would if you're eating You said,
you don't need a lot of sugar and starches, and
you know it's it's PJ. If you listen to that segment.
One thing that is consistent about PJ that I have
learned over the years we've been talking with him is
it comes calories count right, It comes down to calories

(44:32):
and and you know you got to be you know,
if you're putting more in the engine than the engine's burning,
you're gonna gain weight. So yeah, you're you're not taking
in some of those extra calories that a lot of
people are.

Speaker 4 (44:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (44:43):
Well, but I mean, like I said, I mean I
don't take a multibtem. All my vitamin levels are fine,
you know, all my minerals are good, and my system
that when I tell the doctor my my diety, he
looks at me like he's yeah. I tell him I
don't drink any water at all, none whatsoever. I mean,
drank a bottle water in forty years. If I get water,
it's either for poppy or or I t that's it.

(45:04):
That's that's the only way I drink. And he looks
to me like I'm a freaking night time. I eat
no vegetables, no, no fruits, nothing at all. He's looking like,
can we how would you?

Speaker 11 (45:14):
Why would you walk?

Speaker 1 (45:18):
Yes? I hope you hope to see what's making you
tick because you should not be processing everything like you are.
And I don't have any problems with movements. You're an
age nothing And I've lived this way almost.

Speaker 2 (45:32):
My hair life, and thank you very much the results.

Speaker 4 (45:38):
Right if I did that, trust me, though, it would
not work out well for me. Bacon, eggs, sausage and
you know, for breakfast and things like that. Coffee, no water,
oh my goodness.

Speaker 2 (45:51):
But but again I think it's he's not getting all
his extra calories. Think about the calories he's saving by
not drinking pop for milk or yeah, raid or all
that stuff and all the calories and fruit and fruit's
good for you, but it has calories.

Speaker 4 (46:05):
Right, So I mean there are people on the planet

there's also something to you know, if immensely, if you're

Do welcome back Rocky alongside Donna Deep. We got a
great guest at After five o'clock News, Jennifer Bagley and
AI expert. AI is cutting sixteen thousand US jobs a month,
so Jennifer will come on in scarce.

Speaker 3 (48:51):
Yeah, it's scary.

Speaker 2 (48:53):
Yes, Until then, Donni, you had something well.

Speaker 4 (48:56):
I mean, if you thought the four day work week
conversation was over, it's not.

Speaker 3 (49:01):
It's kind of growing, So it's back. Germany did a.

Speaker 4 (49:05):
Four day work week trial that went so well that
seventy three percent of companies kept it permanently.

Speaker 3 (49:12):
And the idea is that you.

Speaker 4 (49:15):
Know, the people that are given time off to reset
and you know, rest and be with their family and
just are more productive, they return sharper and more creative.
I mean, longer hours doesn't always equate to equal better output.

Speaker 3 (49:35):
And my companies.

Speaker 2 (49:36):
Still a football coach because most of them that the
whole manager of a football coach is eighteen hour days
and I sleep in my office. It's it's like a
badge of courage kind of thing.

Speaker 4 (49:47):
Well, and I think a lot of people still feel
that way, Like I if I don't you know, if
I don't have six zooms on my calendar, it's not
a busy day for me. So and that's six hours
just on zooms usually there now ur sometimes they're thirty
minutes or so. But you know, our company is looking
into the four day work week. We did a whole

(50:08):
survey and the number one thing that people ask for
four day work week, and so they're looking at it.
If it doesn't if it doesn't hurt productivity, I think
they would go for it.

Speaker 2 (50:19):
Well, I mean to your point, like, of all the
zoom meetings you have during the course of the week,
how many would you say are absolutely essential?

Speaker 4 (50:26):
I would say out of the week, because let's just
say I had three, which is a small day, so
that would be fifteen.

Speaker 3 (50:32):
I would say, you can cut that in half.

Speaker 2 (50:34):
Yeah, yeah, honest, So right there, Yeah, like boom, get
them out.

Speaker 3 (50:38):
That's a great question.

Speaker 4 (50:40):
I mean, some of them are necessary and some of
them are like brainstorming, which is my favorite. Like those
are the ones that I really love on how we're
going to do this and how we're going to do that,
But some of them.

Speaker 3 (50:51):
Are like, oh my gosh, I don't need it.

Speaker 2 (50:53):
I'm always been a proponent of results driven, like if
you can get your work done, you know, we give
you eight hours and you can get it done in
two and it's it's a great why why shouldn't you
why and then.

Speaker 4 (51:06):
Go have great work life balance. Go you know, you've
got four kids. I mean, you can have a little
bit more time with your wife.

Speaker 2 (51:13):
You can.

Speaker 4 (51:14):
You know, it's it's nice to be out and even
walking my dog in the middle of the day, I
do a walk because it always gives me some energy back.
I mean literally, you know, our company is pretty cool
in terms of work life balance, and if they did
the four day work week, we would be one of
those trials.

Speaker 2 (51:32):
Really, yeah, that'd be cool. Now, I mean same pays
all that, yeah.

Speaker 3 (51:36):
Same pay, nobody gets less.

Speaker 4 (51:38):
In fact, if if we do more in that time,
then that would I mean they're looking at it.

Speaker 3 (51:43):
Would the CEO talked about it, I'd be I.

Speaker 2 (51:45):
Guess the fear of course for bosses is you know,
people take advance and there would be across a long
large amount of people, there'd be people that would you know,
but they're probably the same people that can't get enough
work done in fun days.

Speaker 3 (51:58):
Exactly. You're gonna that's right.

Speaker 4 (52:02):
It's almost like and they're thinking of even unlimited PTO
hours because you know, they want people to you know,
have that work life and people will take advantage of it.

Speaker 3 (52:12):
Some people will appreciate the offer.

Speaker 2 (52:14):
I hope it happens. I'd like to really, all right,

she wasn't involved in any of his crimes or situations,
and never visited the island. She referred to what she
called baseless lies. Didn't expand upon that, but also said
she calls on Congress to have women who are survivors

I'm alongside Donnade and Donna are very excited about our
next guest here, and it comes with here's the headline.
AI is cutting sixteen thousand US jobs a month, and
I guess gen Z has kind of taking the brun
of that. Yeah, here here to discuss our guest. Her
name is Jennifer Bagley. She is an AI expert. She's

(59:07):
the founder and CEO of Just Start AI, and she
joins us. Now, Jennifer, how are you.

Speaker 6 (59:13):
I'm good, Thank you for having.

Speaker 2 (59:14):
Me so, Jennifer, that headline there is, you know, that's
some You know, sometimes headlines can be misleading and a
little bit hyperbole, but you live in this world. Is
AI really taking that seemingly large amount of jobs from
US workers a month?

Speaker 10 (59:33):
Technically it's taking more closer to twenty five thousand. However,
it's also adding nine thousand plus jobs. And it's it's
not mandatory, it's optional, like you can choose, you can
choose to level up and it not gets you. But yes,
the net effect is about sixteen thousand jobs on a

(59:54):
monthly basis right now with exponential growth, and that's for
seemed to expand drastically over the next twelve months.

Speaker 4 (01:00:01):
Mark Cuban said, Hi, Jen, by the way, I know, Jenna,
how are you so? Mark Cuban said, there's two types
of people in the workplace, people that get and use
AI and then everybody else.

Speaker 3 (01:00:14):
I mean, what what is it? What? What?

Speaker 4 (01:00:17):
What do people do that feel like they haven't gotten
on the AI bandwagon? Because even there's some people that
I know that aren't using chat, GPT or claude or
anything like that.

Speaker 3 (01:00:28):
I'm like, how are you not? How are you not
using that?

Speaker 6 (01:00:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:00:33):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:00:34):
I don't even know what to say about that.

Speaker 10 (01:00:36):
Actually, I was at an event in Wisconsin, same thing,
two hundred and fifty people in the room. I was
paid ten grand to come speak. Out of the entire audience,
only three people I'd used AI. Wow, And that was
concerning concerning my heart.

Speaker 6 (01:00:48):
My heart hurt. I had to pause and take a
couple of steps back.

Speaker 10 (01:00:53):
I think that I think everyone's learning about AI and
they think chat GPT is AI chat g BT the
conversational chap on.

Speaker 6 (01:01:01):
It's the lowest possible bar of what AI is.

Speaker 20 (01:01:04):
Right.

Speaker 10 (01:01:04):
You have your very simple conversational bots with by now
everyone should be using. That's your chat to BT's and
clouds and perplexities and so forth. You have AI agents
which you can access through a conversational AI. Then AGENTIC,
which is an orchestrator in many agents running multiple agents
at the same time, MCP autonomous agents and AI assistants, which.

Speaker 6 (01:01:27):
That you know right now.

Speaker 10 (01:01:29):
I think that most people are getting introduced to AI
either because they're a nerd and it's in their feed
and algorithm's got them right, or it's coming from their
employer and their employers are introducing them because they're looking
to increase the efficiency of the employees within their office.
So if the employees don't hear about it and the
employer is the one at fault, we have a bigger
issue because now you're talking about the entire business being

(01:01:51):
at risk, not just jobs.

Speaker 2 (01:01:54):
Now, Jen, you touched on this, but I want you
to elaborate because I feel like that's most people's experience
with AI out there is they use it like a
chat GPT and like a like a super It's like
it's like Google was like a Google search engine back
twenty years ago. Uh but but from everything I hear
that that's you're kind of missing out. That's not really

(01:02:16):
the power of it. What is the power of it?
And how should the average person maybe listen to this
who maybe doesn't use it in their job. How can
they get introduced to it in a way that's actually
going to benefit them and not just be like another
Google search engine.

Speaker 10 (01:02:31):
Yeah, that's a big, big, big giant question. So one,
there's resources we have. We have just start ai dot io,
which is a free resource that costs nothing. It's a
community of people that are interested in leveling up, interesting
and going up, interested in introducing AI to their team
and inside of their there's classes and courses. YouTube is
filled with content and information. I think like number one

(01:02:54):
is being hyper sensitive to seeing how AI is being
integrated into everything you do in your life.

Speaker 6 (01:02:59):
You should see TV ads that are coming out with it.

Speaker 10 (01:03:01):
I mean nine out of ten commercials have some kind
of AI integration inside it. Probably most of the applications
and the tools you're going to see us move closer
and closer into an agentic environment. Even the way we
pay for services is going to change because you're going
from paying for labor hours to paying for tokens, and

(01:03:22):
that's going to evolve over the next year. So people
have got to start becoming familiar with that. This is
not the time to put your head in the sand.
Especially any kind of middle management, any kind of administrative roles,
any kind of function that can be done faster, quicker, sharper,
and smarter.

Speaker 6 (01:03:38):
If I'm working for a company.

Speaker 10 (01:03:40):
I'm raising my hands saying that we should be using AI.
I'm a subject matter expert on this particular topic. I
want to lead the charge. I want to work with
the AI engineers on being able to automate these functions
and services.

Speaker 6 (01:03:51):
That's going to be the first person.

Speaker 10 (01:03:52):
That's managing the AI instead of replaced by AI.

Speaker 6 (01:03:57):
You don't want to be the last one.

Speaker 2 (01:03:58):
Nobsolutely, now, j let me ask you this. So those
sixteen well you said twenty five thousand jobs a month
that are the AI is cutting What sector, Jennifer, are
those mostly involved in?

Speaker 10 (01:04:15):
This is everything from middle management, administrative roles, anything that
is a repetitive task that AI has the ability to
uh do faster, and better. This can be on the
I don't think there's an industry that is uh off

(01:04:35):
the list. I mean from you.

Speaker 6 (01:04:41):
Know, you guys radios.

Speaker 10 (01:04:43):
Yeah, you guys are good, You're good, okay, good comedians maybe, yeah, comedians.

Speaker 4 (01:04:50):
There's obviously they're they're talking about how AI can write
screenplays and stuff. But then there's there's there's they're missing
a chip here so far though, Jen, there's some of this,
and you know, I think AI is going to be
super powerful. It's like before the iPhone and after an
even way bigger, and how useful it will be for

(01:05:13):
companies to adapt some AI policies. I mean Amazon, if
we're looking at the AI layoffs in twenty twenty six,
Amazon cut thirty thousand people, Meta cut fifteen thousand, Oracle
thirty thousand, even sales force four thousand jobs already, and
obviously there's going to be more to cut. When you're

(01:05:33):
talking about like the like the you know, customer service
is going to be replaced, marketing will probably be replaced.

Speaker 2 (01:05:43):
That kind of stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:05:44):
Anything that you said, a task over and over repetitive.

Speaker 3 (01:05:48):
How far do you know how quickly are.

Speaker 4 (01:05:51):
You seeing this move that these these people are going
to continue to lose jobs.

Speaker 10 (01:05:56):
Fastest compounding interest growth I've ever seen in any tech
anology history. Look at chat GPT and the rate and
change you're talking about. It might occupy one point seven
one point eight percent the first month it launched, it
took over a Google search volume. It rapidly in a
four month timeframe went up to ten percent. And when

(01:06:18):
you think about adoption rates adoption we were talking about
how employers are the ones that are introduced in AI
to their employees. However, it's that's not what drives AI adoption,
even from a search standpoint, it's the technology providers.

Speaker 6 (01:06:33):
Every application.

Speaker 10 (01:06:34):
You already own, every hardware, all the devices, whether it's
Tesla launching Rock or whether it's Amazon Alexa upgrading to
Alexa Plus. Every household has hundreds of gadgets and gizmo's
hardware in their house. That all it requires is you
to go to sleep, let an automatic update run, and
next thing you know, every consumer is going to have

(01:06:56):
in their pocket and their wallet, in their car, on
their desk an AI assistant. So even the concept of
how consumers go to market and search, it's not that
marketing is going to go away. It's that every marketing
company that doesn't learn how to market their companies on
AI search. It's think about a website, right, a website
something a human being goes to and they got to

(01:07:16):
click around and navigate. You don't have to do that
when you have an AI assistant, when every Apple device
has theory on it and Siri updates, and now you
have an agentic agent, an AI assistant that you can say, hey, Siria,
find me a pool company to come out and clean
my pool book it add it to my calendar, send
me a text before they get here. Will you go
ahead and pay for that with my bitcoin? And uh

(01:07:38):
leave a review when they're done. I mean that's overnight.
Every human being with that hardware, all of a sudden
is AI assisted, So every piece of the business is changing.

Speaker 4 (01:07:49):
You got Rocky and I with the token thing like
both of us like to.

Speaker 2 (01:07:55):
Explain that at Yeah, the tokens, what is?

Speaker 16 (01:07:59):
What is?

Speaker 2 (01:07:59):
What that mean?

Speaker 10 (01:08:02):
So when a company like ours, So we've remodeled our
entire digital marketing agency to be an AI first agency.
We went from three hundred and twenty employees to a tight,
tiny team of highly efficient forty seven people that are
all supported by AI. It does everything from our reviews,
It implements our marketing services, our strategy, It evaluates our employees.

Speaker 6 (01:08:22):
It's a resource. It's also our managers.

Speaker 10 (01:08:24):
Now our employees have the ability to ask group. We've
named them also buttercups, sorry to our girl, and we
got sarge over sales.

Speaker 6 (01:08:33):
O god, these spicy little things.

Speaker 10 (01:08:36):
But anytime you are utilizing AI, you're not paying an
FTE for an hourly rate getting a human being slow efforts.
You're paying credits tokens, and that token costs will become
a new currency that we get used to paying. So
with forty seven people, I'm capable of producing a million

(01:08:57):
pages of content a day. It's it's right. So it's
not that marketing is going to go away. It's now
I have the person who's head of the content team
now managing a team of aton mess agents managed by
orchestrators and automators and auditors and NLP experts and SEO experts.
These are all now agents, just not people. You still

(01:09:19):
need people to manage the agents. But the cost for customers,
the costs for our company in a token environment, you're
talking about one man hour and the cost for that
is equivalent to a thousand human beings when you convert
to token charges instead of labor charges.

Speaker 2 (01:09:40):
Jennifer Begley's Our Guests, AI expert, founder and CEO of
Just Start AI. I got to tell you, Jennifer, my
mind is still blown from that pool cleaning service scenario
you just laid out exactly.

Speaker 6 (01:09:51):
I mean, yeah, you think about right now and Amazon Alexa.

Speaker 2 (01:09:54):
That that's what. So not to get philosophical on you here, Jennifer,
but like, what about like authenticity, Like if if AI
is doing the work, am I I'm not doing the
work like I feel like people are like, oh AI,
and it makes me a better worker, enhances me. Well
is it that or is it just doing your damn
work for you?

Speaker 6 (01:10:16):
No, it's so it depends on what work it is.

Speaker 10 (01:10:21):
I mean, this still requires the problem is is it
requires a critical thinker, It requires an analyst, It requires
somebody with curiosity, It requires somebody with technical knowledge, technical skills,
and they have to be a subject matter expert at
whatever their prior role was. Like, if you're an SEO,
you still need to be an SEO expert. If you're
in finance, you still need to be a finance expert.

(01:10:42):
But you better not just stay a finance expert. You
better now become an agentic expert as well, and understand databases, architecture, schema,
markdown files, how to give it directives, how to hold
it accountable, how to audit it. I mean, it's not
a lot different than managing people. You just get frommendous output.

(01:11:03):
It retains information and it gets smarter over time. It
doesn't have a bad day, it doesn't get sick, it
doesn't call in, it doesn't get an attitude to get
an attitude.

Speaker 2 (01:11:12):
Because are the positives.

Speaker 4 (01:11:13):
I mean, jen overall, because we got to run here
in a second. But overall you're seeing this because you
can hear how passionate you are. You're seeing this as
a positive. Where a lot of us are like afraid
of this stuff.

Speaker 6 (01:11:27):
I'm afraid of it.

Speaker 10 (01:11:29):
I am consciously aware that AI in the wrong hands
is not a good day, and it is okay to
have both right. I would not be ignorant to say
that I am not scared to death of AI in
the wrong hands. I am also highly passionate and so
excited about the fact that this can literally level up
every small business, every employee. If you are curious and

(01:11:52):
if you are capable and you take action, you have
the ability to do anything. You can dream it and
build it tomorrow. And that is so excited.

Speaker 2 (01:12:00):

Speaker 2 (01:13:53):
Back with Rocky alongside Donnade and Don Obviously this situation
i RAN is top top news and we always love
checking in with our ABC News correspondent in Jerusalem, Jordana
Miller in Jordana. From what I'm reading, I guess you know,
we're trying to shore up that Iran ceasefire. What can
you tell us about the status of that, Well.

Speaker 24 (01:14:16):
It is holding inasmuch as Iran has not attacked Israel
or the United States in the US and Israel have
not attacked Iran since daylight right on essentially you know,
Wednesday morning, So it's holding. And the issue of Lebanon,

(01:14:37):
I think, is what had kind of thrown a wrench
in the in the ceasefire because the Pakistanis and the
Iranian said Lebanon's part of the deal in the United
States and Israel said no, it's not right. And while
that public debate was going on, the Israeli has launched
very very fierce strikes across Lebanon, right and they turned

(01:15:04):
out to be very very deadly. But tonight the Israelis
have announced, the Israeli Prime Minister has announced that he's
going to engage in public diplomacy with Lebanon and try
to open some kind of normalization or peace talks along
with talks to disarm Husbala and that process will likely

(01:15:27):
de escalate the conflict and allow those talks to happen
this weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:15:32):
Gotcha. And when it comes to the talks, yesterday, there
was a lot made about a ten point plan, and
the administration has said there never was a ten point plan,
certainly not the one that was put out. What can
you tell us about that? Is that something that is
real or is that still a goal of these negotiations?

Speaker 24 (01:15:51):
So there have been varying versions of that ten point plan.
There was one in English, there was one in Persian.
We understand that is also another draft in English that
that the US suspected maybe was done through chat GPT.
And you know, I think there's discrepancies that are important

(01:16:14):
in the in the ten points right, and in one
there is really almost no mention of the nuclear enrichment issue, right,
which is obviously central to the United States, not only
what Iran's capability will be for enriching uranium, right, the

(01:16:36):
US wants zero enrichment on Iranian soil, but as well
as the you know, what will be the fate of
those four hundred and forty kilograms of enriched material to
sixty percent? Where where is that going to go? Who's
going to verify that the Iranians are going to turn
over all of it? Right, it's buried underground, so you know,

(01:16:59):
I I think you know that. I think one of
the confusing parts of these ceasefire talks coming up this
weekend is that, you know, the president put out his
own fifteen point plan, but then he said that the
talks will be based around the ten point plan that
the Iranians gave the United States, which I think handed

(01:17:21):
Iran an opportunity to say, oh, these are our ten points,
and the Americans have agreed to them. Right, So I
think that's created a bit of confusion.

Speaker 4 (01:17:33):
Jordana, what is the public support in Israel for Benjamin Nettanna? Who?
Right now?

Speaker 24 (01:17:41):
Listen. I think there's a lot of debate here about
whether Natanie was able to deliver on the promises he
made when this war started.

Speaker 20 (01:17:52):
Right.

Speaker 24 (01:17:55):
Has there been a kind of decisive victory here?

Speaker 4 (01:17:58):
You know?

Speaker 24 (01:17:59):
He he gave an address to the nation yesterday and
he said, you know, Israel's you know, we achieved a lot,
is what he said. But he said there's still goals
ahead and will either get them through a deal or
basically through the resumption of war, right, which was an
admission that not everything was accomplished.

Speaker 17 (01:18:22):
Right.

Speaker 24 (01:18:22):
First of all, you know there was always in the
in the warrims Natanio talked about creating the conditions for
the Iranians to take their country back. Right, Well, regime
change did not happen, and you know the idea, you know,
they they again the nuclear material is still sitting underground

(01:18:47):
in Iran. Right, there's the complicated issue of the straight
of hormones, which drives prices up everywhere, right including in Israel.
And the ballistic missiles. Even though you know, even though
the United States really did pummel a lot of RAN's
the military assets, including their launchers and missiles, we saw

(01:19:11):
the Iranians were still able to fire. Right, So this
wasn't a decisive victory. And I think you know, people
are questioning whether Natagnell got it done, and he'll be
facing reelection in October.

Speaker 2 (01:19:26):
Got you and Jordana, we got about thirty seconds you
mentioned earlier, the Strait of Horn moves. A lot of
the conversation and the strategy revolves around that. What can
you tell us that is it open to vessels now
currently or what's the status there?

Speaker 24 (01:19:42):
The street is essentially closed still the Iranians. You know,
today only Iranian linked tankers went through the street, and
I think there were only about four or five, so
it is not open. And as you know, the Iranians
wanted to charge of toll now, which the president opposes.

(01:20:03):
That will be something I'm sure in the negotiations. So
you know, there's a lot to discuss. And this isn't
really a new regime, despite the President calling it a
new regime. It's just some of the last men standing
in a regime that was, you know, where a lot
of people were taking out.

Speaker 2 (01:20:24):
Got you well, generalists, listen, Jordane, we really appreciate your time.
Make sure you'd be safe over there, and we'll talk
again soon. Thank you.

Speaker 24 (01:20:31):
Okay, thanks Texan And in.

Speaker 2 (01:20:34):
Other dudes, Donna, how about this. I always loved these
stories of miraculous rescues. Yeah, did you see this? This
is in Mexico, Sinaloa, Mexico, Francisco, Zapata and Nazeria. Forty
two was rescued from a flooded cave fourteen days after

(01:20:54):
the claustrophobia. Oh my god, I was going to say
I was already going to get this, like I mean,
what would you in that situation.

Speaker 3 (01:21:05):
I mean almost quarters just go to sleep.

Speaker 2 (01:21:09):
I would just go to sleep at this point, so
the embankment collapsed, collapsed. That they were, you know, some
mine here, a gold mine had him stranded in the
darkness with rising water. So you're in a cave. You
are nine hundred and eighty five feet down. It's pitch black. Wow.

(01:21:32):
Despite the terrifying ordella, it's a potter revealed that he
had clung to hope the entire time. This happened. On
March twenty fifth. There were twenty five miners underground at
the time. Twenty one managed to escape, four were left behind.
One of them did one of dying, but one was
rescued after five days, another one after a couple of days,

(01:21:54):
but he was down there fourteen days. Divers eventually detected
a faint signal in the darkness of a blinking torch.
So he had a torch and he would just kind
of fired off and blanket there. But after fourteen days,
after after two days, I'd be like, it's it, it
gets over.

Speaker 3 (01:22:13):
That's it, man.

Speaker 2 (01:22:14):
This guy is I mean tremendous courage. It guided us,
It guided us. One of the divers added as a
pot of remarkably composed replied, I didn't lose faith. I
did not lose faith at all. But here's the kicker
done them. So the divers they go down, they're looking
around for survivors. They see his light. They go to him.

(01:22:36):
Oh my god, this guy's rescued after fourteen days. Flooded
tunnels meant that he could not be brought out immediately. Instead,
divers were forced to leave him behind temporary They gave
him water, tins of tuna, energy bars and you know
a few other sundrys and said stay right here, way back.

Speaker 1 (01:23:00):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:23:00):
That might be the point where I go. No, No, it's.

Speaker 3 (01:23:04):
Scratching and nailing you are, I'll swim to you. Just
tell me where you are.

Speaker 2 (01:23:08):
You're pulling me out of here right now. So they
got him out, though eventually airlifted him to the hospital. Yeah,
and that was it. He's like in like good shape.

Speaker 3 (01:23:22):
That's great.

Speaker 2 (01:23:23):
Ever been trapped or had a near death experience?

Speaker 3 (01:23:27):
Do you know?

Speaker 4 (01:23:28):
I was only stuck in an elevator one time, and
I think we talked about it. But I saw this
funny comedian that said, if it's post apocalyptic world, he said,
I have a plan. You guys don't have one, you
can use mine. Basically, he said, I'm not making it.
I'm just not I'm not even he said, I'm trying
to find water in a post of I'm not even

(01:23:49):
that happy right now.

Speaker 3 (01:23:51):
That would be me, right, it just take me, it
just put.

Speaker 2 (01:23:54):
Me out of my mind. It'd be my it'd be
my wife too, because there I am. There are a
lot of men out there, I think, especially certainly me,
there's a small part inside of me that like wants
it to happen, just to see if I could do it, Yeah,
to see if you can serve. I think I could,
but you don't know until you have to. And I
was always like, i'd be dead, that's it. I don't

(01:24:17):
want to. I'm like, wouldn't you want to try and
figure it out? Try and figure it out? And you know, like,
what what a great test, right, what a great test
you're faced with? You know, with certain death, it would be.

Speaker 4 (01:24:30):
To see how you would handle it, how individually we
would handle it. I wouldn't want to think about that.
But if I'm putting that situation, maybe hope would be
my last thing. Maybe hopefully yea, hopefully hope would be
with me.

Speaker 2 (01:24:44):
I mean, what's your choice. I mean you can't. I
mean you could give up. But you know that's that's
a I don't know. Maybe in the heathen moment, Donna,
you take a rock and hit yourself off something like maybe,
But you know, I think, Donna, I think in the
heat of it all, there would be a fire burned
deep down, I hope.

Speaker 3 (01:25:04):
So I would definitely keep flicking the light. I would.
I would definitely try and give.

Speaker 2 (01:25:09):
That maybe we'll come on. Yeah, now I am a sucker.
My wife knows this for all these post apocalyptic movie
kind of thing.

Speaker 4 (01:25:18):
Yeah. The Road, No, don't. Oh god, it's terrible. I
don't have nightmares. I can't sleep for days. It is
incredibly powerful. I forget the guy's name.

Speaker 2 (01:25:30):
He's the one. He's in the all those Lord of
the Rings movie. He's like the you know, the hero guy,
and I forget his name, but he's in it, and
it's it is dark. It is pretty depressing. But because
my wife always brings that one up, she's like, you're
the one that made me watch that movie.

Speaker 5 (01:25:48):
The Road, right, you can't put you can't put that
stuff on and expect us not to, you know, have
nightmares and thoughts of doom and gloom.

Speaker 3 (01:25:58):
I mean, that's what I try and get out.

Speaker 4 (01:26:00):
If I get if I don't have any paper towels.

Speaker 2 (01:26:07):
It's overwel, I mean napkins, nothing like that. All right, Well,
don it's been a pleasure doing the show with you today.
We will be back tomorrow for Friday. We'll check in
with John Matteisa tomorrow, Richard Skinner right out of the gate,

about tomorrow. Thank you all for listening. Thanks to Austin
