Speaker 1 (00:00):
Km I Am six.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand on
the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 3 (00:07):
App is Netflix down fush. You were having some buffering
issues there a second ago, buffered when Tyson arrived. But
now it seems like it's going good. Now it's working the.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Intros, the rules, not gla oh it's gonna go.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
It's it's like it's bad. Oh it's starting.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Yeah, okay, well they just rang the bell because I've
got I'm just watching Antonio Brown's Twitter feed where he's
just kind of showing whatever's.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
On the screen. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
So I was watching this as they came out, and
we made mention that that Jake Paul came out in
a hoopdie, this souped up specialized customized to Chevy Silverano
with the top cut off. And then Tyson came out
by himself. They're not even a posse around him. He
just walked out, just time to get to business. Then
(00:52):
they got on the stage and I don't know about you,
but Tyson looks he looks old. I'm not talking about
the way he's moving, but yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
That kind of worried me too. And I saw him.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Yeah, I mean, he's got the gray beard is. He's
standing there.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
His body looks like a fifty eight year old's body,
probably the best shaped fifty eight year old you're gonna see,
to be clear, But I mean, you're not seeing that
giant muscle definition that you remember from Tyson before.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
So anyway, Tyson kind of went after Paul, it looks
like to open the fight, and then now they've been
doing a little bit of hugging and dancing around the ring.
I was looking at the odds, and it looks like
the odds meger. I guess the betters are thinking that
we're probably gonna see this go a few rounds. It's
only two minute rounds, and the odds are that it's
gonna end in a decision. Most betters are thinking it's
(01:45):
gonna be a decision for Paul. If it is a
knockout for Paul, it's probably gonna come around the fifth round.
They do not anticipate a knockout for either one of
these guys earlier than that. And actually, as the rounds
go on a little bit longer. The longer the fight
goes on, the more the odds drop for Tyson. So
we'll see how it shapes up anyway, So it is
going on and it sounds like Netflix is working for
(02:07):
foosh anyway, Mark, is your phone working yet or are
you still watching? Like three fights ago? No, I lost it.
There's a problem with the streaming now. Oh is it okay? Well,
maybe it's done. I got to tell you that the
Twitter feed that I was watching it again, it's Antonio
Brown's Twitter feed that he's got up here. It's up
at four and a half million viewers. That's going up
(02:27):
by over a million viewers in the last few minutes.
First round is over. Nothing really happened, So anyway, keep
an eye on that and watching what's going on because
that's a major event. People are going to be talking
about this all weekend. It's certainly going to be talking
about the trouble that Netflix had, and no doubt about it.
If you're listening to the show on Sunday, we'll be
mentioning the Netflix problems as we do our no business
like show business segment.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
All right.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
That said happened across an article I think it was
this morning. I was reading New York Times because I'm
an elitist, and it says that three quarters of US
adults are now overweight or obese. A new paper reveals
the dramatic rise of obesity rates nationwide since nineteen ninety.
Now I'm old enough to remember nineteen ninety. That was
when Tyson was felt and in nineteen ninety about fifty.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Percent of the country was overweight and obese.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
And I recall when these stats came out, maybe not
necessarily in nineteen ninety in particular, but certainly in the
nineties we talked about that. There were a few stats
from those days that I remember distinctly. One, obesity rates
were overweight and obesity rates were up over fifty percent.
And I also remember the divorce rate in the eighties
was the highest. It was over fifty percent. Recall that.
(03:35):
And we still say half of all marriages and divorce.
And then people say, well, that's not it doesn't mean
to half of all people, because some people get divorced
more than once. Okay, whatever, But they're just a couple
of things that just I recall from those days. So
now that numbers continue to climb, it was already astonishing
when it hit fifty percent of people being overweight and obese.
And if you take a look at some of those
old I love watching the History Channel, because I'm again old,
(03:59):
and and when when I take a look at, for instance,
the troops training videos on the History Channel, when they
show the old documentaries and things, it's not just the
troops that were spelt like. Everybody was in good shape.
You didn't have obesity, certainly not at the rate that
we have it now. I mean, obviously there were fat
(04:20):
people in the forties, but not very many.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
A lot of people were just very thin. It was
just normal. So what has changed?
Speaker 3 (04:27):
What's going on now that we're seeing obesity and overweight
rates climbing so much? And I really really think that
there's something too, something to what RFK has been saying
about processed foods. I think there's something to it, which
could cost him his job because if he hasn't noticed,
(04:49):
his boss likes his Mickeyd's, but that's not good for you.
I'll talk about the process foods here in a few
minutes because I have some interesting numbers on that. But
I was also in conjunction with this story about people
being overweight and obese. I have struggled with weight my
(05:11):
whole life, and I was at I'm six three and
a half and I was at three hundred and twenty
eight pounds to start the year, and something had to change.
So I went on a diet and I worked really
hard on this diet, and it was a pretty restrictive diet,
and it was no fun. But what I've known, because
(05:31):
I yo yo, I go up and down and up
and down. I've been down below in my adult life.
I've been up over three hundred pounds one other time
after that, I had, at one point dropped below two
hundred pounds, and so I dramatic changes and that's not
really great for my health either, But I knew I
could do it. So I went on this restrictive diet.
And I also know that after you're on it for
(05:54):
a few weeks, you start to adjust and you start
to kind of get used to the new foods, the
new serving side is that kind of thing doesn't mean
the cravings are gone.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
It just means it's a little more manageable. But it's
pretty tortuous to start with. For sure. About three and
a half months ago, I got.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Down to two hundred and forty pounds and so I
lost you know what, I lost like eighty pounds in
about seven or eight months. That's a whole person, A
small person. Yeah, yeah, probably like a sorority chick. So
I did that and I was happy, but I would
still like to lose a little bit more. So at
that point I decided I was going to get at
(06:36):
a little assist. I was gonna put some training wheels
on this bicycle, and so I got onto the ozempic program.
And the way ozempic works is they start you at
a low dose because of the side effects.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
They want to make sure that you can handle the ocempics.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
So you started a low dose and you do that
one shot a week for four weeks, and then they
double that dose one shot a week, four weeks, and
then they double that dose one shot a week four weeks,
and then it's not a double the next time, but
it's almost double. And that's where I am right now.
And the side effects have been the first time I
take the shot the first week. After that I increase
the dosage. I feel a little bit nauseous the day after,
(07:15):
which of course helps me not want to eat anymore.
It has not been a wonder drug for me thus far.
But now that I'm at the second highest dosage, I'll
go up a little bit more here in another two weeks.
Now that I'm at the second highest dosage it, I
definitely am not thinking about food very often, and that
(07:35):
is a big difference because most of the time my
brain wants food. And I also have this issue where
when I eat food, I don't stop. Not when I'm
on a diet, but just generally speaking, when I eat food,
I don't stop until I am packed full, until my
stomach hurts.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
What if you had to cut out that you miss
the most.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Oh, that's a good question.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Because I started doing the ozempic and I allowed myself
some quote unquote cheat foods. So I've been eating a
lot of chicken while I started doing the ozempic, and
then I allowed myself to have some some like frozen
breaded chicken. So I like that, and I also found
that some of the things I like I've sort of replaced.
I will also cheat and I will have a breakfast burrito,
(08:20):
which I love breakfast burritos. You know, that's one of
those weird things that I just have this craving for
breakfast burritos.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
I love it so much. Is that a cheat food
or is it bad for you?
Speaker 3 (08:31):
It's not the worst thing you can cheat with right
because it's high protein and it does have carbs because
of the dortias, and there's cheese in it too, but
it's not the worst cheat food that you can have.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
What is it that I really oh?
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Pasta? That's what I miss? Of course I love pasta,
man do I love pasta? And so I haven't been
able to have any of that. But the reason I
bring this up, and I'm telling you the stories that
if you haven't experienced this, you know what it's like.
Is that I'm reading a story about people who are
complaining that when they go off of a zempic they
gain weight. And I was thinking about what would cause
(09:07):
someone to write a story like this, and I thought,
it's because ozempic is working for so many people that
you have to take the contrarian viewpoint to get the clicks.
It's about stirring the pot so that people will read
your stuff, so that people that are concerned about a
new drug on the market or the overwhelming success or
(09:27):
the chatter about the drug can pooh poo it because
that's a society we live in.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
And I get it.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
I do because I'm the same way when it comes
to somebody talking too much about a sports figure. I go, Okay,
enough about Patrick Mahomes. I get it, you think he's great,
and so all of a sudden, I'm watching and I'm
hoping he throws an interception.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
The same thing with Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
I hope Tom Brady loses the Super Bowl because I'm
tired of hearing about Tom Brady. Right, So imagine that
you know, you hear about ozempic every turn, and then
you've got the commercials, oh oh oh ozempic, and you go,
I just want this thing to fail so that I
don't have to hear this stuff anymore.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
They're almost rooting against. It's the shading fraud in us all.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
But then I got to thinking more and more about
how ozempic is really an incredible drug and really terrible
for all of society.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
I will tell you why. That is.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Why ozempic is doing wonders for individuals and is very
bad for America.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Fat America.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
What's going on with the fight here? Is it streaming?
Is it? Is it a good fight? Is it a
bad fight? What's happening?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
It's working in the third round, Paul got some real
hard hits in and that's when you kind of started
to see Tyson's age showing, because he's till pretty quick.
But this last round that just happened. He got a
couple of good ones. I'm almost thinking at this point
it might end up being a tie because they're both
getting each round, they kind of switch off on the hits.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Just throwing a draw. Yeah, I don't see it.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
I mean that that would be really funny because I
think it would affect Paul's ego more than Tyson since
he's already a champ in a legend.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Well yeah, I mean Tyson is he is considered the
underdog here, right apparently. Yeah, I would just love to
see I still want to see Tyson just maul him.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Yeah, and I think that's what he's counting on. I
think every like what everyone thought, he's just trying to
get one two solid ones in the chin and it's over.
But then, yeah, he's just but Paul is kind of
quick because he is younger, which you know, yeah, that's
an advantage.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Well, he's just around more.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Yeah, he's definitely bouncing around's running around Paul is. But
Paul also looks absolutely exhausted.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Yeah, maybe maybe Tyson's playing a little ropodope here. Maybe
that's part of his strategy. Maybe he's a maybe he's
he's taking a page out of Ali's book.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I think he's playing fifty eight years old.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Oh yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Like maybe he's just like, like we both said, when
he when the Brown first started, you could really see
his his age. And yeah, it's kind of like you
can kind of see it right now.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
It's kind of chasing him around the ring a little bit.
But yeah, yeah, he's okay, we'll see all right. Well,
I'm really hoping to see that flur. I think we
just want to see a flurry of vintage Mike Tyson
and if that happens, it's over.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
But so far we haven't seen that.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Okay, And the rounds are only two minutes each, so
that was part of the deal because Tyson said he
had to get home and watch a Wheel of Fortune
in between rounds, so they couldn't last very long.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
So that's what's going on. That was a little blow.
Where was I here?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Oh yeah, I was talking about the obesity rates because
saw a story in the New York Times. So three
quarters of US adults are now overweight or obese, and
that's up from fifty thirty years ago. So fifty percent
is still too high, and now we're up at three quarters.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
And why is that.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
I think a lot of that has to do with
processed foods. I was talking about ozembic because I've been
using the semi glue tide for myself, and I know
I'm probably gonna get a lot of Type two diabetics
are going to be mad at me for for taking
their supplies, but that's America. I'm willing to pay for it.
I also think insurance should probably pay for it. I do,
(13:09):
even for weight loss, and they just need to crank
out more of that. I'm a big I'm a big
fan of the semiglue tages, the GLP one meds, and
I believe that this family of drugs, which the whole
idea is that it slows digestion down and then in
turn it kind of curbs your appetite and it blocks
some receptors and gets gets into the sciencey stuff that
(13:30):
I can't keep up with. I really believe these are
on the mount rushmore of.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Of medicinal breakthroughs. Put it up there with.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Vaccinesh anesthetics and ayah anesthetics, anesthesias, and what's the plural anesthesias,
and then I'll say blood thinners like aspirin.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
I would say this goes into that category.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Of of of of the vaccines, the an anesthesias, analgy,
whatever you want to call it, and then blood thinner's
like aspirin. I think this goes on the on the
Mount Rushmore. It is massive, and it's it's already extending lives.
It cuts the most common causes of natural death, like
(14:15):
you got heart and disease and blood pressure and obviously
diabetes and stroke and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
I'm a huge fan.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
The last visit I had with my cardiologist, and this
is before I was on the weight loss drug. I
had lost some weight and he actually is the one
that said, you know, if you find yourself putting some
weight back on, you should try this. And I said
that sounds great. So my cardiologist said it's it's it's
something you could look at as a tool. I listened
and and I think this is I think this is
(14:41):
a I think this is a really really good thing
for people, and I think it improves not only their
physical state, my cardiologists told me, don't come back again.
There's nothing better than your cardiologist saying he wants to
forget your face. That is a wonderful thing to have happened.
But the psychological side effects of these drugs are massive
(15:03):
to the self image, the working at body dysmorphia, the
confidence reducing, anxiety, all the things that come with losing weight.
And we're starting to see the importance of mental health
now as it relates to physical health as well.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
They all go hand in hand.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
And I don't hate getting out of the shower and
seeing myself in the mirror as much. I still don't
like it, but I listen. It makes me feel better.
But the downside is this, we know that there are
underlying health factors that are causing Americans to be overweight
and obese, and if we are treating the symptoms with
(15:41):
these breakthrough drugs, what does that do as far as
those underlying factors.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
It's keeping the wolves.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
At bay, But the wolves are still there, and the
drugs bring about a little bit of complacency, and we
start to forget that without the drugs, our lifestyles will
kill us. Now, the drugs they helped curtail those cravings.
Our drugs make it so that we can drive past
that McDonald's or that we can order. In fact, the
last time I went to McDonald's, I ordered a kid's meal.
I'm six three and a half and I'm still two
(16:09):
hundred and forty pounds and I had a kid's meal.
That was my lunch because I didn't need any more
than that, and I knew I wasn't gonna need any
more than that small fry and I think I had
the nuggies.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
I didn't need any more.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
But I know that if I stopped taking the drug
and I don't have my little helper there with me,
I know that if I just do a kid's meal,
I'm gonna be hungry for more. Has the drug helped
with sleep apnea, so that is something else. My sleep
apnea is still there. Although last night I forgot to
put my I'm glad you asked that, Mark, and thank
you for remembering I'm dealing with that mess. I did
(16:40):
forget to put my mask on last night, which I
rarely ever do. This is probably the fourth or fifth
time I've done that in two years. And my wife
said that I wasn't storing. I didn't wake her up.
Speaker 5 (16:50):
Really.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
She also had headphones in so but which she did
initially when I was before I got the seapath because.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Of my storing. Do you have the full Darth Vader?
I do not.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
And I hate my seatpap. I hate everything about it.
But I don't do the full mask. I do just
the up my nose thing because I don't want to
do the whole mask. The hose itself.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Is so obnoxious. I can't stand it.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
But my cardiologist said the same thing. He says, is
it helping with their sleep apnea? And and I did
have a sleep because I'm on it. I go back
to my sleep therapist once a year for checkups and
they said, now you're still doing it, so I still.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Have to wear that.
Speaker 5 (17:27):
I think one is with the ozempic is that we
have a natural distrust of shortcuts, because it's a truism
that nothing worthwhile is easy.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Right, Yeah, I agree, I agree, But I also wonder
you know that being fat is big business. Oh, in fact, yeah,
it's not even just like weight watchers. It is such
big business to not only get you fat, but then
to help you get unfat. And this drug, by the way,
is the most effective thing.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
They're not to put.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
Themselves out of business as long as these other businesses
are still around. In fact, I got to tell you
about that, and we'll dive into it here in just
a few moments. Quick update here commentator's debating. Thank you
for the update on this guy's commentator's debating. Tyson struggling
with his mouthpiece and whether it's a tick. They think
he has ticks? Around six ended round seven, Paul is
having what is that?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
He's kind of just playing defense right now.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Oh okay, Paul having a hard time landing hits, Tyson
having a hard time striking. Final round is underway, Paul
is favored. I guess, all right, well, I guess maybe
by the time we get back, we're gonna know who
the winner.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Of this bout is. Probably all right, looking forward to it.
That is straight ahead.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
You're listening to later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
They asked Tyson why he kept biting his glove. He said,
I have a biting fixation. Okay, all right. They asked
Jake Paul about fighting Mike. You said, it's such an honor.
He's a legend, he's the goat I wouldn't be here
without him, the toughest, baddest man on the planet. It
was tough like I expected it to be. It was
a unanimous decision. Are we giving the winner? Are we
(19:04):
gonna do? We want to spoiler alert or something on this?
How do we want to approach this?
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Guys? I want to make sure I'm not upsetting anybody.
I don't know. What do you think? Mark? Sorry? You
cut him off guard? Spoiler alert in three two one?
All right? Unanimous decision that it went to Jake Paul.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Yeah, But one thing I did want to point out
I told Mark too, is when they announced him as
the winner, the most of the crowd is booing good.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
I mean, who they trot somebody else out there next to?
I mean, would would Jake Paul be trying to fight
Muhammad Ali if he hadn't just died?
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I mean, who's he gonna get out there? Why doesn't he?
Why does he fight somebody? For real? Yeah? Fifty eight
year old Mike Tyson.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
And this is only going to fuel the the theory
that the whole thing was fixed to start with. Remember
there was a theory on the internet earlier this week.
We talked about it. That they were claiming that there
was a a no low whose clause in Paul's contract,
which of course there can't be for a sanction fight.
But that's not gonna stop the Internet from assuming the
whole thing is fixed.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Sure, yeah, I can see that.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
They asked, Mike, are you officially done?
Speaker 3 (20:13):
It depends on that Wayitan, maybe I'll fight his brother.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
All right, Okay, I'll tell you what. I still wouldn't
want to.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
I still wouldn't want to pick a fight with Mike
Tyson if I saw him in the street, I would
not do it. I was really hoping to have one
of those Grandpa video moments, like when you see somebody
screwing with an old man on the street. I love
those videos that that pop up on on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
It'll be like, you.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Mess with the wrong guy. It'll be some old farmer
and some kids are picking on the farmer. Then the
farmer just lays them out.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Oh. I love that. Those are my favorites. I love
that because people see people getting their own great. That's fantastic,
all right.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Been talking about losing weight and the reason that that
some people are fighting with their weight right now. In fact,
most people are fighting with their weight. Right now, three
quarters of America are overweight or obese based on BMI,
which doctors admit is not a perfect measurement because it
measures your your weight and your height, and that it
(21:16):
has a mathematical equation and then it figures out all out,
doesn't take into account muscle mass, bone density, that kind
of thing. But generally speaking, it gives them kind of
an idea. It's a it's a good starting point, a
good guide. The thing about BMI that always threw me
off too is if it's your height and then it's
like your your height divided by your weight to times
(21:37):
pig square root of the Pythagorean theorem, that kind of thing. Right,
So it's all based on the numbers that you put
in your height and your weight.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Not not body fat, not density, not not how well
you're hydrated, just height and weight. Well, what if you're
an amputee, I mean, you're still just as tall if
you have one leg, but you're like twenty percent lighter.
That's really gonna throw the whole stat off. One of
(22:13):
those things I always worried about. One way to get
the doctor's off your back. So with so many people
almost seventy five percent of Americans overweight or obese, and
many people turning to weight loss drugs. Myself included why
what are the underlying issues? Why is it that we're
(22:34):
so much fatter now than we were thirty years ago,
and thirty years ago we were way fatter than we
were thirty years prior to that.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
The rise in.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Those who are overweight and obese is incredible. There's a
history has never seen anything like this, and that's because
we have never had so much access to food in
the past. And not only that, but fat is an
incredible industry. Think about all the businesses that want you
(23:08):
to get fat. Obviously, weight loss programs are out of
business unless you've got people to market to, right, So
that's one. But weight loss companies aren't in any risk.
Ozempic will never put itself out of business, or I
should say we gov because ozempic is technically for type
two diabetes.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
We go vy, which is the same thing.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
Semiglue Tide, which has been approved for weight loss, will
never put itself out of business because if you go
off of the product, which is a concern that I
have and I haven't crossed that bridge yet, but the
concern is you get to your target weight, do you
come off the drug? And if you come off the drug,
what happens to your weight? Does it go right back?
And of course most people when they lose weight, they
(23:50):
yo yo. And the reason they yo yo is because
when you're not being disciplined on a diet, or in
this case, when you've got the assistance of medication, those
same cravings come back.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
You fall into those same routines.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
You you're at the grocery store and maybe you've got
X amount of dollars and you can see that you
can get two apples for six dollars, or you can get,
you know, a little meal at the deli counter for
six dollars. Are you gonna get two apples or you're
gonna get something that's got to You've got some hef
to it, something that gives you some satisfaction, feels like
(24:25):
you ate a meal. Of course, you're gonna go for
the thing that makes you feel like you ate a meal,
not not the two apples. We've seen the price of
salads nowadays. Now we talk about inflation, we talk about
how expensive even fast food is nowadays, but even even
these healthier foods are far more expensive than than buying
the processed foods. And that is where RFK and I
have something in common. It's the ultra processed foods. The
(24:49):
ultra processed foods are a big issue. Chips, candy bars, sodas.
It is hard for America's consumption the ultra processed foods.
It's hard to lower the consumption of the ultra processed
foods when they are piled high on the grocery store
(25:09):
shelves and they're cheaper.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Than the produce. They are addicting, so addicting that.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Seventy three percent of America's food supply is now made
up of ultraprocessed foods. Seventy three percent of the food
at the grocery store is an ultra processed food. Now,
science may say that ultraprocessed foods aren't inherently unhealthy, but
we do know that the ultraprocessed foods lead to cravings
of more ultra processed foods. In fact, sixty percent of
(25:41):
what we eat every day is ultra processed food and
if you are a kid, that number jumps up to
two thirds of what kids eat are ultra processed foods. Chicken, Nuggies, Delish, pizza,
high preservatives in your cheeses, sodas, all of these different things,
(26:04):
and then we have holidays that celebrate them when it
was the last time you had something homemade for Halloween.
Nobody does candied apples anymore. That's because the witch down
the road always puts razor blades in them.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
But nobody does there's anymore.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
We go to the ultra processed foods because they're convenient,
they taste good, they make us feel happy, and then
we want more of it.
Speaker 5 (26:23):
It's also worth pointing out, if you don't mind my interrupting,
I don't go ahead. The ingredients in a lot of
the processed foods suppress your fullness so that you just
want to keep eating them, like Doritos, which you know,
who can't kill a whole bag of Doritos?
Speaker 3 (26:37):
And what is it? Wasn't it a lays It said?
Bet you can't eat just one. That's because they actually
stacked it against you. That's exactly right, according to the
director of Bloomberg Philanthropy's Food Policy program, Nina Pisad is
her name. She says, they have just the right combination
of sugar, salt, and fat, and you just can't stop
eating them. There is money in getting you fat. There
(27:01):
is money in fast food addicting you to fast food
ultra processed. And then there's money in helping you take
off the weight that the other companies were making you
pay extra to put on in the first place.
Speaker 5 (27:13):
They get you coming and going. Also, have you noticed
have you noticed that we're hearing and seeing more commercials
for things we never did before, like liver cleanse tablets,
like the way around that would be not to drink
yourself to death, but shut your mouthal instead, shut your mouth,
shut your mouth, shut your mouth here. I have you
judge me half as much at stake on this one
(27:34):
as you don't?
Speaker 1 (27:35):
You judge me everything in moderation. Now listen all of it.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
We're all trying to clean up our lives, and I'm
struggling every damn day. I'm struggling with this stuff every day.
And right now I've got a little bit of an assist.
I just worry about when I don't. All right, if
you looked up in the sky tonight, you might see
the beavers staring back at you.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
We'll tell you why. Next.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on Demand from KFI.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
AMSI Chris Merrill from O Kelly KF I am six forty.
You can listen anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
And then I'll be back on Sunday afternoon as well.
Join me for the normal program starting at four o'clock.
Good to be with you there. In fact, I'm already
taking a look at what we have coming up here
on Sunday. Really good stuff, not just weight law. I mean,
we've got weight loss stuff right, But I also wanted
(28:23):
to be able to talk a little bit about some
of their food issues, like KFC is suing for their
original recipe.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
They're suing about it. Somebody sneaky sneaky on that.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
And an update on the Info Warst issue, the Info
Wars sale to the Onion that is coming up this weekend.
It joined me at four o'clock on Sunday for that.
Probably also get a little bit of feedback as we
do our entertainment segment on Sunday afternoons, a little feedback
as to what people are thinking about the Jake Paul
Mike Tyson fight. Most of the instant reactions I'm seeing
(28:58):
online are that was not right. Here's one I just
wasted twenty minutes of my life. I'll never get back
another one. Well, at least they already had Netflix, so
there's that didn't have to pay for it. David Spade said,
I hate that it came out exactly the way we thought.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Yeah, me too. I was kind of thinking that too.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
I was like, man, if this, if Netflix or streaming
didn't exist, this easily would have been one hundred and
twenty dollars.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Papers Yeah, I would have been pissed.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Right in the streets.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Yeah, they would charge book Bucks for this because of the.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Hype around it.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Sports guy I've worked with before says, this is far
more sad than I thought it would be, for far
different reasons. Guaranteed payday everyone. In other words, they were
just dancing around collecting their twenty or forty million dollars.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
And that kind of happened when Mayweather went up against McGregor. Yeah,
because I watched that, that was the last one I
paid for. Yeah, yeah, me too. That But see that one,
when I think ten or eleven rounds, it was longer. Yeah,
but the first I would say, I remember three or
four rounds. It was just a bunch of dancing so yeah,
I mean we were getting ready to throw things at
(30:07):
the team. It was as terrible. So at least this
one it wasn't as much. It was more in the
first round. Yeah, and that's when kind of a few
more blows were hit taken. But yeah, yeah, let me see.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
Yeah, here's somebody says, if Tyson was in his prime,
the match would have been over in twenty seconds or less.
Tyson is a legend of boxing. He's also fifty eight,
and it showed. I think we both agreed on that too.
Watching Mike Tyson Jake Paul is one of the saddest
ways I've ever spent a Friday night. I need to
sign up for a cooking class or a bowling league
or something. Life is short.
Speaker 5 (30:39):
This fight reminded me of the ones that heralded kind
of the end of boxing being a thing that people
stayed at home and watched together was when it just
turned out to be a couple of fat dudes scooting
around and jammed at each other and it was boring exactly.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Butterball is the big draw, right, Yeah, that's good sport
says We're all so dumb for watching this. So a
lot of that the internet is brutal. This is the
only time it's any good. Oh, here we go breaking.
Jake Paul has challenged Jimmy Carter to a boxing match,
so we've got that coming up.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
We'll be looking forward to that. See that in pay
per view.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Can you imagine Carter watching this match and being I
survived for this?
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Come on, I think if it was me, maybe you
guys agree with me on this, I would chuck it
up to a movie that you're like, well, let's see,
this might be good, and you're like, but at least
I didn't pay for it, and I was at home
in my underwear, so who cares. Yeah, So you're describing
Hulu right now the entirety.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
But in general, I'm saying, like, that's kind of what
I would say that was. I mean, I get to
watch it at work, but still.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
Yeah, right, you get paid for that. All right, well done.
If you look up the sky tonight, we have the
last supermoon of the year. Did you know that the
November supermoon is referred to as the Beaver moon? What
and why is the moon so super?
Speaker 6 (32:07):
First of all, the reason we have supermoons is because
of the orbit of the Moon around the Earth. So
the orbit is not a perfect circle. It's actually more
like an ellipse or an oval. That means the moon
is not always the same distance from the Earth as
it travels around the Earth. When it's closest, it's called paragy.
That's about three hundred and sixty thousand kilometers away. When
(32:29):
it's furthest.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Don't some me kilometers we're in America.
Speaker 6 (32:33):
That's called apogee, it's about four hundred thousand kilometers away.
So when you combine a full moon with paragy, that
means you have a full moon that is at the
closest point to the Earth. That's why the supermoons tend
to look bigger and brighter. In fact, they tend to
look about fourteen percent bigger and about thirty percent brighter.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Oh, they look fourteen percent bigger, just just roughly.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Is that right? Scientists? All right?
Speaker 6 (32:56):
See beaver moon? Yes, why is it called this? Well,
scientists think it's because.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
Oh, Mark, did you want to take a shot at
this based on some of the videos in your basement?
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Or we just leave me out of this.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (33:08):
This is the time of year when beavers gather things
and prepare their damns and things like that.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Gas.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
I thought it had to do with terrible, terrible mistake
we made when we were staying at Grandma's house for
the weekend.
Speaker 5 (33:20):
Tread lightley really tread lightly.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
I don't know if you heard the news about this week, but.
Speaker 3 (33:33):
Yeah, boy did they make a mistake around Yeah?
Speaker 6 (33:39):
Why the full moon in November is called the beaver moons?
Speaker 1 (33:42):
All right?
Speaker 6 (33:43):
I also want to talk to you about a subject
that might be a little bit difficult to talk about,
but that's okay, that's what we do here.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Oh god, where's this going here? We talk about moon illusion.
Speaker 6 (33:53):
Okay, this actually has nothing to do with the supermoon,
but you may notice if you ever look at the moon,
it tends to look really big when it's low on
the horizon, for instance, if it's maybe rising over the
mountains or maybe rising over a city scape like that,
you've probably see a scene similar to that. Now, that's
because your eyes are actually playing a trick on you.
It's not actually bigger. And one way to prove this
(34:16):
is that if you take your index finger.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Okay, he's getting boring. Why is this difficult to talk about? Well,
it's much harder to listen to than it is to
talk about bub there's no there's no this is difficult
to talk about.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
I thought it was gonna sell us something important. It wasn't.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
All right, Pushe You're the best man, just just a
tremendous partner to have throughout this entire process. You love it.
I love it to death. Matt, you are amazing and
thank you for being here. You have been so diligent
behind the scenes. Tonight in for Tawala and Towalla of
course is such a legend in his own in his
own right. And then Mark Ronner, buddy just loves, just
(34:57):
love when I get to play on the radio with you,
gladly gets catch up some quality time. Finally, I dig
it so much. I'm looking forward to the next time. Guys,
have a great weekend. I'm back on Sunday and we'll
talk to you that. It's Chris MERYLKFI AM six forty
in from O'Kelly tonight. He's back on Monday Live everywhere
on your iHeartRadio app. You've been listening so later with
mo Kelly. You can always hear us live on KFI
(35:18):
AM six forty seven pm to ten pm every Monday
through Friday and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app,
Km I Am six.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand on
the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 3 (00:07):
App is Netflix down fush. You were having some buffering
issues there a second ago, buffered when Tyson arrived. But
now it seems like it's going good. Now it's working the.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Intros, the rules, not gla oh it's gonna go.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
It's it's like it's bad. Oh it's starting.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Yeah, okay, well they just rang the bell because I've
got I'm just watching Antonio Brown's Twitter feed where he's
just kind of showing whatever's.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
On the screen. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
So I was watching this as they came out, and
we made mention that that Jake Paul came out in
a hoopdie, this souped up specialized customized to Chevy Silverano
with the top cut off. And then Tyson came out
by himself. They're not even a posse around him. He
just walked out, just time to get to business. Then
(00:52):
they got on the stage and I don't know about you,
but Tyson looks he looks old. I'm not talking about
the way he's moving, but yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
That kind of worried me too. And I saw him.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Yeah, I mean, he's got the gray beard is. He's
standing there.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
His body looks like a fifty eight year old's body,
probably the best shaped fifty eight year old you're gonna see,
to be clear, But I mean, you're not seeing that
giant muscle definition that you remember from Tyson before.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
So anyway, Tyson kind of went after Paul, it looks
like to open the fight, and then now they've been
doing a little bit of hugging and dancing around the ring.
I was looking at the odds, and it looks like
the odds meger. I guess the betters are thinking that
we're probably gonna see this go a few rounds. It's
only two minute rounds, and the odds are that it's
gonna end in a decision. Most betters are thinking it's
(01:45):
gonna be a decision for Paul. If it is a
knockout for Paul, it's probably gonna come around the fifth round.
They do not anticipate a knockout for either one of
these guys earlier than that. And actually, as the rounds
go on a little bit longer. The longer the fight
goes on, the more the odds drop for Tyson. So
we'll see how it shapes up anyway, So it is
going on and it sounds like Netflix is working for
(02:07):
foosh anyway, Mark, is your phone working yet or are
you still watching? Like three fights ago? No, I lost it.
There's a problem with the streaming now. Oh is it okay? Well,
maybe it's done. I got to tell you that the
Twitter feed that I was watching it again, it's Antonio
Brown's Twitter feed that he's got up here. It's up
at four and a half million viewers. That's going up
(02:27):
by over a million viewers in the last few minutes.
First round is over. Nothing really happened, So anyway, keep
an eye on that and watching what's going on because
that's a major event. People are going to be talking
about this all weekend. It's certainly going to be talking
about the trouble that Netflix had, and no doubt about it.
If you're listening to the show on Sunday, we'll be
mentioning the Netflix problems as we do our no business
like show business segment.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
All right.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
That said happened across an article I think it was
this morning. I was reading New York Times because I'm
an elitist, and it says that three quarters of US
adults are now overweight or obese. A new paper reveals
the dramatic rise of obesity rates nationwide since nineteen ninety.
Now I'm old enough to remember nineteen ninety. That was
when Tyson was felt and in nineteen ninety about fifty.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Percent of the country was overweight and obese.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
And I recall when these stats came out, maybe not
necessarily in nineteen ninety in particular, but certainly in the
nineties we talked about that. There were a few stats
from those days that I remember distinctly. One, obesity rates
were overweight and obesity rates were up over fifty percent.
And I also remember the divorce rate in the eighties
was the highest. It was over fifty percent. Recall that.
(03:35):
And we still say half of all marriages and divorce.
And then people say, well, that's not it doesn't mean
to half of all people, because some people get divorced
more than once. Okay, whatever, But they're just a couple
of things that just I recall from those days. So
now that numbers continue to climb, it was already astonishing
when it hit fifty percent of people being overweight and obese.
And if you take a look at some of those
old I love watching the History Channel, because I'm again old,
(03:59):
and and when when I take a look at, for instance,
the troops training videos on the History Channel, when they
show the old documentaries and things, it's not just the
troops that were spelt like. Everybody was in good shape.
You didn't have obesity, certainly not at the rate that
we have it now. I mean, obviously there were fat
(04:20):
people in the forties, but not very many.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
A lot of people were just very thin. It was
just normal. So what has changed?
Speaker 3 (04:27):
What's going on now that we're seeing obesity and overweight
rates climbing so much? And I really really think that
there's something too, something to what RFK has been saying
about processed foods. I think there's something to it, which
could cost him his job because if he hasn't noticed,
(04:49):
his boss likes his Mickeyd's, but that's not good for you.
I'll talk about the process foods here in a few
minutes because I have some interesting numbers on that. But
I was also in conjunction with this story about people
being overweight and obese. I have struggled with weight my
(05:11):
whole life, and I was at I'm six three and
a half and I was at three hundred and twenty
eight pounds to start the year, and something had to change.
So I went on a diet and I worked really
hard on this diet, and it was a pretty restrictive diet,
and it was no fun. But what I've known, because
(05:31):
I yo yo, I go up and down and up
and down. I've been down below in my adult life.
I've been up over three hundred pounds one other time
after that, I had, at one point dropped below two
hundred pounds, and so I dramatic changes and that's not
really great for my health either, But I knew I
could do it. So I went on this restrictive diet.
And I also know that after you're on it for
(05:54):
a few weeks, you start to adjust and you start
to kind of get used to the new foods, the
new serving side is that kind of thing doesn't mean
the cravings are gone.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
It just means it's a little more manageable. But it's
pretty tortuous to start with. For sure. About three and
a half months ago, I got.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Down to two hundred and forty pounds and so I
lost you know what, I lost like eighty pounds in
about seven or eight months. That's a whole person, A
small person. Yeah, yeah, probably like a sorority chick. So
I did that and I was happy, but I would
still like to lose a little bit more. So at
that point I decided I was going to get at
(06:36):
a little assist. I was gonna put some training wheels
on this bicycle, and so I got onto the ozempic program.
And the way ozempic works is they start you at
a low dose because of the side effects.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
They want to make sure that you can handle the ocempics.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
So you started a low dose and you do that
one shot a week for four weeks, and then they
double that dose one shot a week, four weeks, and
then they double that dose one shot a week four weeks,
and then it's not a double the next time, but
it's almost double. And that's where I am right now.
And the side effects have been the first time I
take the shot the first week. After that I increase
the dosage. I feel a little bit nauseous the day after,
(07:15):
which of course helps me not want to eat anymore.
It has not been a wonder drug for me thus far.
But now that I'm at the second highest dosage, I'll
go up a little bit more here in another two weeks.
Now that I'm at the second highest dosage it, I
definitely am not thinking about food very often, and that
(07:35):
is a big difference because most of the time my
brain wants food. And I also have this issue where
when I eat food, I don't stop. Not when I'm
on a diet, but just generally speaking, when I eat food,
I don't stop until I am packed full, until my
stomach hurts.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
What if you had to cut out that you miss
the most.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Oh, that's a good question.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Because I started doing the ozempic and I allowed myself
some quote unquote cheat foods. So I've been eating a
lot of chicken while I started doing the ozempic, and
then I allowed myself to have some some like frozen
breaded chicken. So I like that, and I also found
that some of the things I like I've sort of replaced.
I will also cheat and I will have a breakfast burrito,
(08:20):
which I love breakfast burritos. You know, that's one of
those weird things that I just have this craving for
breakfast burritos.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
I love it so much. Is that a cheat food
or is it bad for you?
Speaker 3 (08:31):
It's not the worst thing you can cheat with right
because it's high protein and it does have carbs because
of the dortias, and there's cheese in it too, but
it's not the worst cheat food that you can have.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
What is it that I really oh?
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Pasta? That's what I miss? Of course I love pasta,
man do I love pasta? And so I haven't been
able to have any of that. But the reason I
bring this up, and I'm telling you the stories that
if you haven't experienced this, you know what it's like.
Is that I'm reading a story about people who are
complaining that when they go off of a zempic they
gain weight. And I was thinking about what would cause
(09:07):
someone to write a story like this, and I thought,
it's because ozempic is working for so many people that
you have to take the contrarian viewpoint to get the clicks.
It's about stirring the pot so that people will read
your stuff, so that people that are concerned about a
new drug on the market or the overwhelming success or
(09:27):
the chatter about the drug can pooh poo it because
that's a society we live in.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
And I get it.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
I do because I'm the same way when it comes
to somebody talking too much about a sports figure. I go, Okay,
enough about Patrick Mahomes. I get it, you think he's great,
and so all of a sudden, I'm watching and I'm
hoping he throws an interception.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
The same thing with Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
I hope Tom Brady loses the Super Bowl because I'm
tired of hearing about Tom Brady. Right, So imagine that
you know, you hear about ozempic every turn, and then
you've got the commercials, oh oh oh ozempic, and you go,
I just want this thing to fail so that I
don't have to hear this stuff anymore.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
They're almost rooting against. It's the shading fraud in us all.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
But then I got to thinking more and more about
how ozempic is really an incredible drug and really terrible
for all of society.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
I will tell you why. That is.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Why ozempic is doing wonders for individuals and is very
bad for America.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Fat America.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
What's going on with the fight here? Is it streaming?
Is it? Is it a good fight? Is it a
bad fight? What's happening?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
It's working in the third round, Paul got some real
hard hits in and that's when you kind of started
to see Tyson's age showing, because he's till pretty quick.
But this last round that just happened. He got a
couple of good ones. I'm almost thinking at this point
it might end up being a tie because they're both
getting each round, they kind of switch off on the hits.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Just throwing a draw. Yeah, I don't see it.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
I mean that that would be really funny because I
think it would affect Paul's ego more than Tyson since
he's already a champ in a legend.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Well yeah, I mean Tyson is he is considered the
underdog here, right apparently. Yeah, I would just love to
see I still want to see Tyson just maul him.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Yeah, and I think that's what he's counting on. I
think every like what everyone thought, he's just trying to
get one two solid ones in the chin and it's over.
But then, yeah, he's just but Paul is kind of
quick because he is younger, which you know, yeah, that's
an advantage.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Well, he's just around more.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Yeah, he's definitely bouncing around's running around Paul is. But
Paul also looks absolutely exhausted.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Yeah, maybe maybe Tyson's playing a little ropodope here. Maybe
that's part of his strategy. Maybe he's a maybe he's
he's taking a page out of Ali's book.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I think he's playing fifty eight years old.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Oh yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Like maybe he's just like, like we both said, when
he when the Brown first started, you could really see
his his age. And yeah, it's kind of like you
can kind of see it right now.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
It's kind of chasing him around the ring a little bit.
But yeah, yeah, he's okay, we'll see all right. Well,
I'm really hoping to see that flur. I think we
just want to see a flurry of vintage Mike Tyson
and if that happens, it's over.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
But so far we haven't seen that.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Okay, And the rounds are only two minutes each, so
that was part of the deal because Tyson said he
had to get home and watch a Wheel of Fortune
in between rounds, so they couldn't last very long.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
So that's what's going on. That was a little blow.
Where was I here?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Oh yeah, I was talking about the obesity rates because
saw a story in the New York Times. So three
quarters of US adults are now overweight or obese, and
that's up from fifty thirty years ago. So fifty percent
is still too high, and now we're up at three quarters.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
And why is that.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
I think a lot of that has to do with
processed foods. I was talking about ozembic because I've been
using the semi glue tide for myself, and I know
I'm probably gonna get a lot of Type two diabetics
are going to be mad at me for for taking
their supplies, but that's America. I'm willing to pay for it.
I also think insurance should probably pay for it. I do,
(13:09):
even for weight loss, and they just need to crank
out more of that. I'm a big I'm a big
fan of the semiglue tages, the GLP one meds, and
I believe that this family of drugs, which the whole
idea is that it slows digestion down and then in
turn it kind of curbs your appetite and it blocks
some receptors and gets gets into the sciencey stuff that
(13:30):
I can't keep up with. I really believe these are
on the mount rushmore of.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Of medicinal breakthroughs. Put it up there with.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Vaccinesh anesthetics and ayah anesthetics, anesthesias, and what's the plural anesthesias,
and then I'll say blood thinners like aspirin.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
I would say this goes into that category.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Of of of of the vaccines, the an anesthesias, analgy,
whatever you want to call it, and then blood thinner's
like aspirin. I think this goes on the on the
Mount Rushmore. It is massive, and it's it's already extending lives.
It cuts the most common causes of natural death, like
(14:15):
you got heart and disease and blood pressure and obviously
diabetes and stroke and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
I'm a huge fan.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
The last visit I had with my cardiologist, and this
is before I was on the weight loss drug. I
had lost some weight and he actually is the one
that said, you know, if you find yourself putting some
weight back on, you should try this. And I said
that sounds great. So my cardiologist said it's it's it's
something you could look at as a tool. I listened
and and I think this is I think this is
(14:41):
a I think this is a really really good thing
for people, and I think it improves not only their
physical state, my cardiologists told me, don't come back again.
There's nothing better than your cardiologist saying he wants to
forget your face. That is a wonderful thing to have happened.
But the psychological side effects of these drugs are massive
(15:03):
to the self image, the working at body dysmorphia, the
confidence reducing, anxiety, all the things that come with losing weight.
And we're starting to see the importance of mental health
now as it relates to physical health as well.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
They all go hand in hand.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
And I don't hate getting out of the shower and
seeing myself in the mirror as much. I still don't
like it, but I listen. It makes me feel better.
But the downside is this, we know that there are
underlying health factors that are causing Americans to be overweight
and obese, and if we are treating the symptoms with
(15:41):
these breakthrough drugs, what does that do as far as
those underlying factors.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
It's keeping the wolves.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
At bay, But the wolves are still there, and the
drugs bring about a little bit of complacency, and we
start to forget that without the drugs, our lifestyles will
kill us. Now, the drugs they helped curtail those cravings.
Our drugs make it so that we can drive past
that McDonald's or that we can order. In fact, the
last time I went to McDonald's, I ordered a kid's meal.
I'm six three and a half and I'm still two
(16:09):
hundred and forty pounds and I had a kid's meal.
That was my lunch because I didn't need any more
than that, and I knew I wasn't gonna need any
more than that small fry and I think I had
the nuggies.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
I didn't need any more.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
But I know that if I stopped taking the drug
and I don't have my little helper there with me,
I know that if I just do a kid's meal,
I'm gonna be hungry for more. Has the drug helped
with sleep apnea, so that is something else. My sleep
apnea is still there. Although last night I forgot to
put my I'm glad you asked that, Mark, and thank
you for remembering I'm dealing with that mess. I did
(16:40):
forget to put my mask on last night, which I
rarely ever do. This is probably the fourth or fifth
time I've done that in two years. And my wife
said that I wasn't storing. I didn't wake her up.
Speaker 5 (16:50):
Really.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
She also had headphones in so but which she did
initially when I was before I got the seapath because.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Of my storing. Do you have the full Darth Vader?
I do not.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
And I hate my seatpap. I hate everything about it.
But I don't do the full mask. I do just
the up my nose thing because I don't want to
do the whole mask. The hose itself.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Is so obnoxious. I can't stand it.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
But my cardiologist said the same thing. He says, is
it helping with their sleep apnea? And and I did
have a sleep because I'm on it. I go back
to my sleep therapist once a year for checkups and
they said, now you're still doing it, so I still.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Have to wear that.
Speaker 5 (17:27):
I think one is with the ozempic is that we
have a natural distrust of shortcuts, because it's a truism
that nothing worthwhile is easy.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Right, Yeah, I agree, I agree, But I also wonder
you know that being fat is big business. Oh, in fact, yeah,
it's not even just like weight watchers. It is such
big business to not only get you fat, but then
to help you get unfat. And this drug, by the way,
is the most effective thing.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
They're not to put.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
Themselves out of business as long as these other businesses
are still around. In fact, I got to tell you
about that, and we'll dive into it here in just
a few moments. Quick update here commentator's debating. Thank you
for the update on this guy's commentator's debating. Tyson struggling
with his mouthpiece and whether it's a tick. They think
he has ticks? Around six ended round seven, Paul is
having what is that?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
He's kind of just playing defense right now.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Oh okay, Paul having a hard time landing hits, Tyson
having a hard time striking. Final round is underway, Paul
is favored. I guess, all right, well, I guess maybe
by the time we get back, we're gonna know who
the winner.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Of this bout is. Probably all right, looking forward to it.
That is straight ahead.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
You're listening to later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
They asked Tyson why he kept biting his glove. He said,
I have a biting fixation. Okay, all right. They asked
Jake Paul about fighting Mike. You said, it's such an honor.
He's a legend, he's the goat I wouldn't be here
without him, the toughest, baddest man on the planet. It
was tough like I expected it to be. It was
a unanimous decision. Are we giving the winner? Are we
(19:04):
gonna do? We want to spoiler alert or something on this?
How do we want to approach this?
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Guys? I want to make sure I'm not upsetting anybody.
I don't know. What do you think? Mark? Sorry? You
cut him off guard? Spoiler alert in three two one?
All right? Unanimous decision that it went to Jake Paul.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Yeah, But one thing I did want to point out
I told Mark too, is when they announced him as
the winner, the most of the crowd is booing good.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
I mean, who they trot somebody else out there next to?
I mean, would would Jake Paul be trying to fight
Muhammad Ali if he hadn't just died?
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I mean, who's he gonna get out there? Why doesn't he?
Why does he fight somebody? For real? Yeah? Fifty eight
year old Mike Tyson.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
And this is only going to fuel the the theory
that the whole thing was fixed to start with. Remember
there was a theory on the internet earlier this week.
We talked about it. That they were claiming that there
was a a no low whose clause in Paul's contract,
which of course there can't be for a sanction fight.
But that's not gonna stop the Internet from assuming the
whole thing is fixed.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Sure, yeah, I can see that.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
They asked, Mike, are you officially done?
Speaker 3 (20:13):
It depends on that Wayitan, maybe I'll fight his brother.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
All right, Okay, I'll tell you what. I still wouldn't
want to.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
I still wouldn't want to pick a fight with Mike
Tyson if I saw him in the street, I would
not do it. I was really hoping to have one
of those Grandpa video moments, like when you see somebody
screwing with an old man on the street. I love
those videos that that pop up on on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
It'll be like, you.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Mess with the wrong guy. It'll be some old farmer
and some kids are picking on the farmer. Then the
farmer just lays them out.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Oh. I love that. Those are my favorites. I love
that because people see people getting their own great. That's fantastic,
all right.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Been talking about losing weight and the reason that that
some people are fighting with their weight right now. In fact,
most people are fighting with their weight. Right now, three
quarters of America are overweight or obese based on BMI,
which doctors admit is not a perfect measurement because it
measures your your weight and your height, and that it
(21:16):
has a mathematical equation and then it figures out all out,
doesn't take into account muscle mass, bone density, that kind
of thing. But generally speaking, it gives them kind of
an idea. It's a it's a good starting point, a
good guide. The thing about BMI that always threw me
off too is if it's your height and then it's
like your your height divided by your weight to times
(21:37):
pig square root of the Pythagorean theorem, that kind of thing. Right,
So it's all based on the numbers that you put
in your height and your weight.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Not not body fat, not density, not not how well
you're hydrated, just height and weight. Well, what if you're
an amputee, I mean, you're still just as tall if
you have one leg, but you're like twenty percent lighter.
That's really gonna throw the whole stat off. One of
(22:13):
those things I always worried about. One way to get
the doctor's off your back. So with so many people
almost seventy five percent of Americans overweight or obese, and
many people turning to weight loss drugs. Myself included why
what are the underlying issues? Why is it that we're
(22:34):
so much fatter now than we were thirty years ago,
and thirty years ago we were way fatter than we
were thirty years prior to that.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
The rise in.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Those who are overweight and obese is incredible. There's a
history has never seen anything like this, and that's because
we have never had so much access to food in
the past. And not only that, but fat is an
incredible industry. Think about all the businesses that want you
(23:08):
to get fat. Obviously, weight loss programs are out of
business unless you've got people to market to, right, So
that's one. But weight loss companies aren't in any risk.
Ozempic will never put itself out of business, or I
should say we gov because ozempic is technically for type
two diabetes.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
We go vy, which is the same thing.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
Semiglue Tide, which has been approved for weight loss, will
never put itself out of business because if you go
off of the product, which is a concern that I
have and I haven't crossed that bridge yet, but the
concern is you get to your target weight, do you
come off the drug? And if you come off the drug,
what happens to your weight? Does it go right back?
And of course most people when they lose weight, they
(23:50):
yo yo. And the reason they yo yo is because
when you're not being disciplined on a diet, or in
this case, when you've got the assistance of medication, those
same cravings come back.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
You fall into those same routines.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
You you're at the grocery store and maybe you've got
X amount of dollars and you can see that you
can get two apples for six dollars, or you can get,
you know, a little meal at the deli counter for
six dollars. Are you gonna get two apples or you're
gonna get something that's got to You've got some hef
to it, something that gives you some satisfaction, feels like
(24:25):
you ate a meal. Of course, you're gonna go for
the thing that makes you feel like you ate a meal,
not not the two apples. We've seen the price of
salads nowadays. Now we talk about inflation, we talk about
how expensive even fast food is nowadays, but even even
these healthier foods are far more expensive than than buying
the processed foods. And that is where RFK and I
have something in common. It's the ultra processed foods. The
(24:49):
ultra processed foods are a big issue. Chips, candy bars, sodas.
It is hard for America's consumption the ultra processed foods.
It's hard to lower the consumption of the ultra processed
foods when they are piled high on the grocery store
(25:09):
shelves and they're cheaper.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Than the produce. They are addicting, so addicting that.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Seventy three percent of America's food supply is now made
up of ultraprocessed foods. Seventy three percent of the food
at the grocery store is an ultra processed food. Now,
science may say that ultraprocessed foods aren't inherently unhealthy, but
we do know that the ultraprocessed foods lead to cravings
of more ultra processed foods. In fact, sixty percent of
(25:41):
what we eat every day is ultra processed food and
if you are a kid, that number jumps up to
two thirds of what kids eat are ultra processed foods. Chicken, Nuggies, Delish, pizza,
high preservatives in your cheeses, sodas, all of these different things,
(26:04):
and then we have holidays that celebrate them when it
was the last time you had something homemade for Halloween.
Nobody does candied apples anymore. That's because the witch down
the road always puts razor blades in them.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
But nobody does there's anymore.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
We go to the ultra processed foods because they're convenient,
they taste good, they make us feel happy, and then
we want more of it.
Speaker 5 (26:23):
It's also worth pointing out, if you don't mind my interrupting,
I don't go ahead. The ingredients in a lot of
the processed foods suppress your fullness so that you just
want to keep eating them, like Doritos, which you know,
who can't kill a whole bag of Doritos?
Speaker 3 (26:37):
And what is it? Wasn't it a lays It said?
Bet you can't eat just one. That's because they actually
stacked it against you. That's exactly right, according to the
director of Bloomberg Philanthropy's Food Policy program, Nina Pisad is
her name. She says, they have just the right combination
of sugar, salt, and fat, and you just can't stop
eating them. There is money in getting you fat. There
(27:01):
is money in fast food addicting you to fast food
ultra processed. And then there's money in helping you take
off the weight that the other companies were making you
pay extra to put on in the first place.
Speaker 5 (27:13):
They get you coming and going. Also, have you noticed
have you noticed that we're hearing and seeing more commercials
for things we never did before, like liver cleanse tablets,
like the way around that would be not to drink
yourself to death, but shut your mouthal instead, shut your mouth,
shut your mouth, shut your mouth here. I have you
judge me half as much at stake on this one
(27:34):
as you don't?
Speaker 1 (27:35):
You judge me everything in moderation. Now listen all of it.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
We're all trying to clean up our lives, and I'm
struggling every damn day. I'm struggling with this stuff every day.
And right now I've got a little bit of an assist.
I just worry about when I don't. All right, if
you looked up in the sky tonight, you might see
the beavers staring back at you.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
We'll tell you why. Next.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on Demand from KFI.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
AMSI Chris Merrill from O Kelly KF I am six forty.
You can listen anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
And then I'll be back on Sunday afternoon as well.
Join me for the normal program starting at four o'clock.
Good to be with you there. In fact, I'm already
taking a look at what we have coming up here
on Sunday. Really good stuff, not just weight law. I mean,
we've got weight loss stuff right, But I also wanted
(28:23):
to be able to talk a little bit about some
of their food issues, like KFC is suing for their
original recipe.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
They're suing about it. Somebody sneaky sneaky on that.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
And an update on the Info Warst issue, the Info
Wars sale to the Onion that is coming up this weekend.
It joined me at four o'clock on Sunday for that.
Probably also get a little bit of feedback as we
do our entertainment segment on Sunday afternoons, a little feedback
as to what people are thinking about the Jake Paul
Mike Tyson fight. Most of the instant reactions I'm seeing
(28:58):
online are that was not right. Here's one I just
wasted twenty minutes of my life. I'll never get back
another one. Well, at least they already had Netflix, so
there's that didn't have to pay for it. David Spade said,
I hate that it came out exactly the way we thought.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Yeah, me too. I was kind of thinking that too.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
I was like, man, if this, if Netflix or streaming
didn't exist, this easily would have been one hundred and
twenty dollars.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Papers Yeah, I would have been pissed.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Right in the streets.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Yeah, they would charge book Bucks for this because of the.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Hype around it.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Sports guy I've worked with before says, this is far
more sad than I thought it would be, for far
different reasons. Guaranteed payday everyone. In other words, they were
just dancing around collecting their twenty or forty million dollars.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
And that kind of happened when Mayweather went up against McGregor. Yeah,
because I watched that, that was the last one I
paid for. Yeah, yeah, me too. That But see that one,
when I think ten or eleven rounds, it was longer. Yeah,
but the first I would say, I remember three or
four rounds. It was just a bunch of dancing so yeah,
I mean we were getting ready to throw things at
(30:07):
the team. It was as terrible. So at least this
one it wasn't as much. It was more in the
first round. Yeah, and that's when kind of a few
more blows were hit taken. But yeah, yeah, let me see.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
Yeah, here's somebody says, if Tyson was in his prime,
the match would have been over in twenty seconds or less.
Tyson is a legend of boxing. He's also fifty eight,
and it showed. I think we both agreed on that too.
Watching Mike Tyson Jake Paul is one of the saddest
ways I've ever spent a Friday night. I need to
sign up for a cooking class or a bowling league
or something. Life is short.
Speaker 5 (30:39):
This fight reminded me of the ones that heralded kind
of the end of boxing being a thing that people
stayed at home and watched together was when it just
turned out to be a couple of fat dudes scooting
around and jammed at each other and it was boring exactly.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Butterball is the big draw, right, Yeah, that's good sport
says We're all so dumb for watching this. So a
lot of that the internet is brutal. This is the
only time it's any good. Oh, here we go breaking.
Jake Paul has challenged Jimmy Carter to a boxing match,
so we've got that coming up.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
We'll be looking forward to that. See that in pay
per view.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Can you imagine Carter watching this match and being I
survived for this?
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Come on, I think if it was me, maybe you
guys agree with me on this, I would chuck it
up to a movie that you're like, well, let's see,
this might be good, and you're like, but at least
I didn't pay for it, and I was at home
in my underwear, so who cares. Yeah, So you're describing
Hulu right now the entirety.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
But in general, I'm saying, like, that's kind of what
I would say that was. I mean, I get to
watch it at work, but still.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
Yeah, right, you get paid for that. All right, well done.
If you look up the sky tonight, we have the
last supermoon of the year. Did you know that the
November supermoon is referred to as the Beaver moon? What
and why is the moon so super?
Speaker 6 (32:07):
First of all, the reason we have supermoons is because
of the orbit of the Moon around the Earth. So
the orbit is not a perfect circle. It's actually more
like an ellipse or an oval. That means the moon
is not always the same distance from the Earth as
it travels around the Earth. When it's closest, it's called paragy.
That's about three hundred and sixty thousand kilometers away. When
(32:29):
it's furthest.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Don't some me kilometers we're in America.
Speaker 6 (32:33):
That's called apogee, it's about four hundred thousand kilometers away.
So when you combine a full moon with paragy, that
means you have a full moon that is at the
closest point to the Earth. That's why the supermoons tend
to look bigger and brighter. In fact, they tend to
look about fourteen percent bigger and about thirty percent brighter.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Oh, they look fourteen percent bigger, just just roughly.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Is that right? Scientists? All right?
Speaker 6 (32:56):
See beaver moon? Yes, why is it called this? Well,
scientists think it's because.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
Oh, Mark, did you want to take a shot at
this based on some of the videos in your basement?
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Or we just leave me out of this.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (33:08):
This is the time of year when beavers gather things
and prepare their damns and things like that.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Gas.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
I thought it had to do with terrible, terrible mistake
we made when we were staying at Grandma's house for
the weekend.
Speaker 5 (33:20):
Tread lightley really tread lightly.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
I don't know if you heard the news about this week, but.
Speaker 3 (33:33):
Yeah, boy did they make a mistake around Yeah?
Speaker 6 (33:39):
Why the full moon in November is called the beaver moons?
Speaker 1 (33:42):
All right?
Speaker 6 (33:43):
I also want to talk to you about a subject
that might be a little bit difficult to talk about,
but that's okay, that's what we do here.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Oh god, where's this going here? We talk about moon illusion.
Speaker 6 (33:53):
Okay, this actually has nothing to do with the supermoon,
but you may notice if you ever look at the moon,
it tends to look really big when it's low on
the horizon, for instance, if it's maybe rising over the
mountains or maybe rising over a city scape like that,
you've probably see a scene similar to that. Now, that's
because your eyes are actually playing a trick on you.
It's not actually bigger. And one way to prove this
(34:16):
is that if you take your index finger.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Okay, he's getting boring. Why is this difficult to talk about? Well,
it's much harder to listen to than it is to
talk about bub there's no there's no this is difficult
to talk about.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
I thought it was gonna sell us something important. It wasn't.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
