Speaker 5 (02:56):
Thanks Nancy. I was about to be like what it
was the stumble at the end She had to think
about it.

Speaker 4 (03:02):
Well, you know, I just had just asking people to
buy my about brother's book.

Speaker 7 (03:07):
Now that she's retiring, she will be paying that much
more attention to Mandy's blog.

Speaker 5 (03:10):
Uh oh, what does she become?

Speaker 4 (03:12):
What if my blog is the only thing Nancy has
going for.

Speaker 5 (03:15):
Her, she will be the blog a sewer for you
moving forward. Her new tier the blog is dore I
like that. That is good.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Hey, Rod, that's good. She just coined a new word
right here on the radio. Ye and thankfully you're on
the radio. A Rod's had a fun time yesterday. Tell
us about your day at work, well, trying to leave work,
I guess.

Speaker 7 (03:35):
Ruh, Yes, Well, let's just start at the end. Walking
in today. We have our three elevators here at iHeartRadio in.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
I'd like to call them Dodgy one, Dodgy two, and
Dodgy three.

Speaker 7 (03:46):
Well, Dodgy two, as I walked in today, was deactivated
and open. Why you ask, Oh, I don't know me
among now I've learned many others in the last twenty
four hours. I've gotten stuck in the elevator on my
way out, mind you, with my equipment kart the only
reason I need to take said elevator every now and then,
I'll take the stairs, but can't when I have all
my gear that I have to go to the bottom
floor with. I get in the elevator, start clicking the

(04:08):
floor that I need to go to. Oh didn't open, Okay,
let me try down the one. Maybe it was just nope,
didn't open. Another one, Nope, didn't open. I feel like
I'm in the Tower of Terra because it's going up
and down and up and down and up and down
as all of the floors illuminate and then unilluminate, illuminate,
and then unilluminate for minutes on end. I know it
only was a couple of minutes, but it felt like
an hour, and I was freaking out a little because

(04:31):
it wasn't just staying somewhere. It kept going up, down, up, down, up, down,
wasn't opening. I heard the other door open on the outside.
The indoor wouldn't open, which I didn't learned it was
because it wasn't latching or something. Yep.

Speaker 4 (04:41):
So you could have gotten to the outside from the
outside doors, but the inside doors were not participating.

Speaker 7 (04:46):
Correct the windows, and it felt really kind of not great.
So I called frantically. Luckily, eventually on one of the floors,
without me touching anything, it finally opened.

Speaker 5 (04:56):
And now it's deactivated. Hopefully we'll be serviced soon.

Speaker 4 (04:59):
And you told me again and got stuck in attention
running duck got stuck on their way to work.

Speaker 8 (05:03):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (05:04):
So the two producers, oh oh, and the morning show host.

Speaker 7 (05:08):
We've got stuck. Oh wow, he got stuck at some
point in time in the last twenty four hours.

Speaker 5 (05:12):
Wow, that's fantastic. I'm fantastic that it wasn't me forever. Yeah,
it's not a great feeling. I've never had it happen before.

Speaker 4 (05:19):
And I thought, in an elevator or a nest excuse me,
an elevator for about fifteen minutes.

Speaker 5 (05:25):
Oh that's oh no in New York.

Speaker 4 (05:27):
So the you know, they got the phone in the
elevator for just this reason. Right, You pick up the
phone and I go, hey, I'm stuck in this elevator,
and the goes, what building you you in? And I
was like, I honestly don't know. I can give you
the address. I don't know the name of the building.
And he goes give me the address. So I give
him the address and he goes, ah, Jesus, not again,
It'll be like fifteen minutes, and he slams the phone down.

Speaker 5 (05:49):
That's not bad. So now I'm in the elevator.

Speaker 4 (05:50):
But I'm thinking to myself, was he just saying it's
going to be fifteen minutes because he doesn't want to
talk to me?

Speaker 1 (05:57):
Right?

Speaker 4 (05:57):
And this was before cell phones, so there was no
other option, just that phone in the elevator. And it
actually ended up being about exactly fifteen minutes.

Speaker 5 (06:05):
So obviously it's not all.

Speaker 7 (06:07):
It just stopped because I felt like I was in
the Tower of Terror. It would not stop moving.

Speaker 4 (06:11):
Well, you're in a four story building. This was like
a twenty story building. And I was halfway up, but
well yet no, so I was too afraid to do anything.

Speaker 8 (06:19):
You know.

Speaker 4 (06:19):
I wasn't gonna go all die hard and try and
climb out the top.

Speaker 5 (06:22):
And climb up the ropes and no, well, I'm not
doing that.

Speaker 7 (06:26):
I was not going to say this part, but it
was recommended to me, like, if you think you're for
sure at a floor, go ahead and open it up.
Like no, no, no, no, no part of me wants
any part of that. Because then the next time it was, yeah, well,
make sure you're not, you know, make sure you're out
of floor, because if you open it up and you're
halfway between, don't try to crawl through. Yeah no, I'm
not crawling up, down, around, getting slice in half final destination.

(06:47):
No no, no, no, no, no, no, thank you. Luckily
now it's out of service. That was the most pleasant
site today. To see it out of service. Yeah, happying
to other people, not the only one.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
Well, I I walked in today. I hit the button,
I saw doors open, and I walked in and then
I was like, there are no lights on it here,
and I immediately whacked out. I was like, I'm not
getting dropped.

Speaker 5 (07:08):
In this thing again. It's not happening. Yep, elevators here dodging.
What what do you guys? I want to know?

Speaker 4 (07:14):
This is one of those dumb listener questions. What is
the most annoying thing about where you work? And you
don't have to go into great It could be a coworker,
It could be the lack of a break room.

Speaker 5 (07:26):
It could be the smell.

Speaker 4 (07:27):
It could be a myriad of things for me in
this building. It used to be the bathrooms, but now
they fix the bathroom.

Speaker 5 (07:34):
I ask you something about their current bathroom situation. Yeah, lovely.

Speaker 7 (07:37):
In your current bathroom that you're using a temporary one,
do you currently have hand soap that smells like pickles?

Speaker 5 (07:43):
Because because we do well that's in the men's room.
You guys are savages.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
So we have like eucalyptus sage soap or something.

Speaker 7 (07:51):
Our current hand soap smells exactly potent pickles.

Speaker 5 (07:56):
Yeah, that's interesting.

Speaker 4 (07:58):
I mean, I know who wants to walk around like
smelling like dill?

Speaker 5 (08:01):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 7 (08:01):
Is it just that it's the weird dill seasoned flavored
whatever soap, or is the soap old or something it's
turned to pickle smell.

Speaker 5 (08:10):
Yeah, at least good time guys wash their hands here
because some don't. Anyway, what you said that, we'll talk
about that later.

Speaker 4 (08:20):
Let's talk about something really important for a change, and
that is Veterans Day. And I thought about this on
the way to work today and I don't think I've
ever had this conversation with you, my friends on the radio,
so I want to do it today because today is
Veterans Day. Today is the day we honored all who served.
This is not the same as Memorial Day. Memorial Day
is to honor those who died in service. And then

(08:41):
we have Armed Forces Day, which is honoring the military
as they are serving now. Now you know, you can
always honor the people who are serving now and say
thank you for your service. We'll get more on that
in a moment. By the way, the Veterans Day is
all about those who served. And we have so many
veterans in Colorado and in our listening area. And at
the end of every hour this hour, I am going

(09:02):
to open up the phone lines and do shout outs
where you just call up and say, you know, big
shout out to the veteran in your life.

Speaker 5 (09:11):
Okay, now we're gonna do this at the end of.

Speaker 4 (09:14):
Every hour, just because I like it and I like
to hear people being proud of their friends and family
who served. If you know any veterans, I hope I
don't need to tell you to reach out. My husband
got a wonderful message from a friend of ours in
Louisville today. And he's not one of those friends you
talk to often, but when you do talk to him,
it feels like you just talked to him, you know
what I mean. I love those friends, very low maintenance friends.

Speaker 8 (09:35):
You know.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
But he said, Chuck a message on Facebook today that
was just really really nice and really heartfelt. And it
was just a nice thing to see and a nice
thing for, you know, Chuck to get today. But I
thought about this today. I did not grow up in
a military family and I had, I mean, no one
in my family serve for a variety of reasons. My

(09:56):
grandfather served in World War Two, but he was a physician,
so he was not like a soldier out on the
front line. He was a physician and spent most of
his time at hospitals in major cities and was not
in the direct combat forces. But that being said, I
just didn't have any experience with a military. My dad
didn't serve, my uncle didn't serve. No one served, And

(10:18):
we don't have a huge family anyway. It's not like
we have tons and tons of cousins and all of
that stuff to look at. So I did not understand
what it meant to be a part of the family
that is attached to the military. And then I met Chuck. Now,
Chuck was already out of the military by the time
I met him. He was medically retired out after a

(10:40):
bunch of Somalians shot at him as successfully and physically
just could not continue.

Speaker 5 (10:47):
Probably would have stayed in for.

Speaker 4 (10:49):
He would have been a lifer had he not gotten
wounded and retired out. But I married him after that,
and there have been certain times in our marriage where
I have had these light bulb moments of understanding. And
I never understood the military sort of camaraderie that people

(11:11):
in the service experience. And it's not just the people
that you serve with immediately, there's this kind of combative
camaraderie with all of the other branches of service. We
just went to the Army Air Force game and there
was so much good natured ribbing, right.

Speaker 5 (11:25):
Just like like good natured smack talk. It was all fun.
It was not serious.

Speaker 4 (11:31):
It wasn't like when you go to a Patriots game
and Patriots fans really want to kill you if you
don't love their team. It was just it was fun
because there's that sort of antagonistic camaraderie and it's fun
and it's funny and it's just really really interesting. But
when my son got married, and our son was a
was an officer in the military. He went through ROTC

(11:51):
and College and came out a second lieutenant, and he
and his wife got married.

Speaker 5 (11:56):
Before they deployed.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
They had a pre deployment wedding, and then when he
got back they had a, you know, a regular wedding.
The predeployment wedding was at the VFW in outside Fort
Riley in Kansas, Okay. So we go to this wedding.
And the reason they had a wedding was because when
my son's soldiers found out he was getting married, they said,
if they just went to the courthouse, all of them

(12:19):
would show up at the courthouse wearing daisy dukes and
wife beaters and their combat boots to embarrass him at
the courthouse.

Speaker 5 (12:25):
So they had this wedding and it was great and
we had the best time.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
But I saw my son with his soldiers, and first
of all, they kept calling him sir, which I know,
he's an idiot, right, So I, as his mom, I'm like, no,
I couldn't stop laughing, and Chuck Flay said, Manda, you
have to stop doing that. These are men under his command.

Speaker 5 (12:45):
And I was like, okay, okay, okay.

Speaker 4 (12:47):
I laugh inappropriately far too often, but this was one
of those. But seeing the camaraderie between the soldiers and
my son in that dynamic, it helped me understand what
I see with my husband and his old army buddies,
which they're all you know, as he said, he was
such an idiot when he was a young kid in
the military. He it's a wonder that any of them
talk to him at all. But they've all been through

(13:09):
a lot together. And his best friend that he got
shot with in Somalia, who was also significantly wounded, and
in all honesty, has had a lot of post traumatic
stress struggles that have really affected him. Deeply, really really deeply.
But instead of showing, you know, like warped and compassion.

(13:30):
As part of his injuries, a piece of shrapnel or
a bullet went through Chuck's this is kind of graphic,
went through Chuck's arm and hit Jack in the eye
and it blinded him in one eye. Instead of having
compassion for his new disability, they immediately named him one
eye Jack, Right. I mean, it's just like and you're like,
what are you doing? And that's just how it is.

(13:52):
This it's a very special relationship. And the reason that
I say that is I think one of the big
problems for a lot of veterans when they get out
of the military is they lose that framework. They lose
that camaraderie where everybody is equal, right, everybody at the
same rank is equal. There's no disqualifiers. And it's a
fascinating thing to see and a fascinating thing to appreciate.

(14:15):
And all of that comes for I think, and this
is just the outside looking in. All of that comes,
especially in the modern era, because all of these people
signed up to do this thing that very few Americans
sign up to do. And I am not knocking you
if you are drafted. Please don't take this as a
slight at all, but in the modern era, these are

(14:35):
people that chose to go and pick up a gun
to defend this country because they think this country has
enough value that they were willing to put their own
lives on the line to protect it.

Speaker 5 (14:50):
That's pretty incredible.

Speaker 4 (14:53):
And I think it's disheartening to me to see any
veteran shrug off when someone says thank you for your service.
And somebody posted on my Facebook, and I don't want
to pick on you, Kletis, but I did respond when
someone says thank you for your service and your your
instinct is to shrug it off or be uncomfortable with that.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying we

(15:15):
need to give you a parade every day, okay, But
if I see someone in a hat, I'm going to
say thank you for your service. If I see someone
in a T shirt, thank you for your service. I'm
not going to make a big to do out of
it that. You know what, you guys and gals, You
stepped up so the rest of us didn't have to, right,
So don't downgrade the meaning of that commitment that you

(15:38):
made on my behalf because that's what you did.

Speaker 5 (15:41):
You chose on my behalf to.

Speaker 4 (15:43):
Defend the nation where I get to sit here and
enjoy all the liberties and all the freedoms.

Speaker 5 (15:48):
And it were not perfect.

Speaker 4 (15:49):
And you know what, I'm worried about us as a country,
but I can't think of anything any place better, even
with all of our faults, I cannot think of a
single place better. And I appreciate everyone who's served man
Man so happy Veterans Day. I want everybody to go
out free meals. Lots of places are given free meals.

(16:10):
There's a lot of chain restaurants that do it, and
I'm sure there's a lot of local restaurants that do it.
One that I know of is Oliver's Italian Restaurant in
the Tech Center. This is one of those restaurants that
everyone who goes there comes back absolutely singing the praises
of this restaurant. And they're offering a free entree lunch
or dinner up to a certain amount, and a free
beverage for veterans.

Speaker 5 (16:31):
And check it out. It's on the blog today.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
But I just wanted to give them a little shout
out because they're just down the street here in the
Tech Center. So I got a couple of text messages
that I want to share.

Speaker 5 (16:40):
Mandy.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
I get together with my Army buddies every year.

Speaker 5 (16:42):
Now.

Speaker 4 (16:43):
We serve together in Germany thirty seven years ago in
nineteen eighty eight. That is fantastic, Absolutely fantastic, Mandy. My
family has served the military since my sixth great grandfather
in the Continental Army during the Revolution. We've had family
member and every military conflict the nation has sent troops

(17:03):
to fight in, except the Mexican American War. Unfortunately, I
have medical issues that kept me from joining, but the
army offered me a nice pair.

Speaker 5 (17:10):
Of socks when I turned eighteen. I love that man.

Speaker 4 (17:16):
The most annoying about where I work is the flies
that come into my office and they buzz around behind
the blinds that are on the windows on the overhead lights.
Then I just learned someone else in the building has
wasps coming into his office during the summer. Granted, I'll
take the flies over the wasp, but it's still annoying,
especially in the afternoon. Where in the sam Hill do
you work where you've got wasps and flies coming in

(17:37):
your building? And have you ever heard of a fly strip?
I know they look tackis, I'll get out, but they work.
Many America is trying to make up for the despicable
way Vietnam vets were treated. And as a matter of fact,
in my response to Cletus, I said, why don't you
ask of Vietnam vet why it's important that people say
thank you for your service?

Speaker 5 (18:00):
Think that's right?

Speaker 4 (18:01):
And I think you know it doesn't happen every day, right,
doesn't happen all the time, Bandy. My own father, who
was in the Army sent me a picture of a
marine crayon cake for US Marine Corps birthday. I sent
him a picture of marines because the army needs heroes too,
And that's exactly what I'm talking about.

Speaker 3 (18:18):
That.

Speaker 4 (18:19):
That's fantastic. That is fantastic.

Speaker 5 (18:23):
All right.

Speaker 4 (18:23):
Now, coming up on the show today, we've got Rabbi
Lebon clean speech Colorado is underway. If you don't know
what that is, you're gonna want to hear about that
at two thirty. At one o'clock, we're talking to a neuropsychiatrist.
So I'm not sure what that is. We're gonna find
out together. But he has a whole book about how
bucket list can help you live a fulfilling life And
did I forget to mention by my brother's book.

Speaker 5 (18:45):
We'll do that next.

Speaker 4 (18:46):
No, I'm just kidding, Hey, Rod, what do you think
about this? And I'm gonna need your help here because
I don't want to be the only one to do it.
You know, Oprah always does that My favorite things. Only
Oprah gives away the stuff that she talks about. We're
not doing that. We're not giving away stuff.

Speaker 5 (18:57):
But do you have like cool things? Because I was
thinking about.

Speaker 4 (19:00):
I don't do anything electronically, like that's not my jam,
but you you have all kinds of gear and equipment
and blah blah blah. And I was wondering if, like,
maybe we'll come up with the Mandy Coddles show list
of ideas for Christmas, just like things that we think
are cool, because there's so many things that I see.

Speaker 5 (19:17):
That I'm like, that's cool.

Speaker 4 (19:18):
And I was wonder if people would find that useful
if you don't know what to buy someone for Christmas
and you're like, well, Mandy and a Rod think this is.

Speaker 7 (19:25):
Cool, and then literally for Christmas everyone could just out
of the phrase. And I heard about it from Mandy
Common right right exactly yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (19:34):
Right, because I've just I've seen some stuff lately and
I was like, oh, that would be a really good gift.
And you know, different things that are out there that
are kind of some of them are kind of outside
the box.

Speaker 7 (19:44):
Pressure would be on you to come up with a
really good list, though you can't let your people down.

Speaker 5 (19:48):
Well here's one of my problems.

Speaker 4 (19:50):
And this is why I was like, well, I got
to bring you in to do the electronic stuff because
I don't have any of that. A lot of my
stuff is like kitchen oriented stuff that I really like,
or it's just things that I find cozy, cozy life,
cozy cozy life type stuff okay that I just.

Speaker 7 (20:06):
Like, not clothes, but make your life nice and relax
or in all honesty, like.

Speaker 4 (20:11):
I mean, if you are married to a woman my age,
I'm fifty six years old, Like the skincare line that
I'm using right now is amazing.

Speaker 5 (20:18):
Things like that. Well, there's the first thing for your
list right there. Yeah. Oh, I already started a list.
I got things.

Speaker 4 (20:24):
I got stuff that I just think is cool because
you reach a certain point at my age, I don't
want anything.

Speaker 5 (20:30):
I don't need anything, you know, I just don't.

Speaker 4 (20:34):
I often wondered why advertisers really aggressively went after the
twenty five to fifty four h demographic when all of
the money is really in the fifty five plus category.
But then I realized, you reach a certain point you
just don't need anything else. You're I don't want anything else.

Speaker 7 (20:50):
If only instead of items, there were I don't know
a trip that someone that listens to your show could
get for their significant other.

Speaker 4 (21:00):
Do you mean like the Mandy Connell adventure.

Speaker 5 (21:01):
That would be a great idea that Wait in a second.

Speaker 4 (21:04):
You know what's funny is I didn't even have that
on the list, But my brother's book would be on
the list too. If you have a especially young men,
you could read the book while on the way.

Speaker 5 (21:15):
You want to know, it's really really funny.

Speaker 4 (21:17):
Guess what I read on the way to Japan on
the last Mandy Connell trip. I read my brother's book. Yeah,
he sent me a PDF before it can.

Speaker 7 (21:23):
So it could be it turns into a day in
the life me read the book and go on the trip. Gosh, hey, Rod,
you're a marketing genius. I know, such a marketing genius anyway,
didn't even mind her in college like I should have. No,
I don't know how much space we have on the trip.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
Actually, I'm going to reach out and find out, cause
last I checked, we were very close to sold out
and hopefully.

Speaker 7 (21:45):
Listener, I hear you. I'm just I'm just a smart genius.
Mandy did not have that in mind for this. There's
just to be a plug. Okay, yep, I just am
really smart and tied it in. We actually want to
do this thing.

Speaker 5 (21:58):
Now, there you go.

Speaker 4 (22:00):
We're doing the list. So you start making your list
and then you and I will gather.

Speaker 5 (22:03):
It up and together check it so it's checked twice. Yeah,
of course, Well we'll have somebody else check it.

Speaker 4 (22:09):
For the skincare line, it's a skincare line called Freua
Organics f R y A four products their Mature skin line.
It's just I didn't like it when I first got
it because it's not you know what a tub of
Carmex looks like. No, Carmex is like the gel stuff
that you turn for the car, you put on your
lips for your jel. This skincare line looks like that.

(22:30):
When I got it, I was like, what the heck
did I just buy?

Speaker 7 (22:32):
What if you male listeners want to know about the
Men's Scare skincare line.

Speaker 5 (22:36):
Well, I'll tell you what Chuck uses.

Speaker 4 (22:38):
Chuck uses in a Rice brand extract cleanser for his
face that I made him buy, and he's like, wow,
this is really good.

Speaker 3 (22:46):
I like it.

Speaker 5 (22:49):
Grime and water.

Speaker 4 (22:50):
Yes, maybe I bought the supercubes after you talked about them.

Speaker 5 (22:53):
They're great. I love them.

Speaker 4 (22:54):
I just made more soup. They're in my supercubes right now.
I got to take them out today and put them
in a ziploc bag there, you know, back in there,
the raiders are cool.

Speaker 5 (23:03):
I don't that's we don't need hate speech hard flying.

Speaker 4 (23:06):
Yeah, no, Mandy, yes to the Mandy and a Rod
holiday gift giving list. Put that skincare on top. As
your fellow person who prioritizes travel, how about a second
list with travel recommendations, locations, hotels, cruise lines.

Speaker 5 (23:19):
They said, oh, I like that too, I like that too.
That is very good. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 4 (23:26):
The person who asked about the skincare said, I use
it too. I'm not gate keeping. That stuff is amazing, amazing. Okay, ladies, men,
are you have no idea why what I'm about to
say is significant I have stopped wearing foundation because my
skin looks good enough. I'm like, I'm good to go.
Granted I'm not a fancy makeup person. It ever happened,
so that may not be the best endorsement. And A

(23:49):
Rod didn't notice, you know, when you don't wear women
I didn't, you didn't because this is what happens when
you go to work. On the rare occasion, I've gone
to work without makeup in the past, inevitably. Ye are
five people in the oppice.

Speaker 5 (24:01):
Are you okay? Yeah?

Speaker 7 (24:02):
Yeah, see I have okay what's called? And it seems
to be rare these days, common decency. I would never
say it out loud, so you've noticed.

Speaker 5 (24:14):
No, But here's the thing. I'm better and you think
I looked that I'm immune to it.

Speaker 7 (24:20):
Entrapmans And my response is I plead the fifth I
did not notice or not not notice, and nor would
I say anything now or then whether I did or not.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
Yeah, nice attempt, Yeah, a valiant effort. Shameless plugs are
not smart. We get enough sales from the ass. I'm
not going to make a single dollar off this, and
neither is a Rod. To be clear, that's there's no
financial none none, zero zip.

Speaker 5 (24:43):
I'm just a smart you know what.

Speaker 4 (24:44):
Yeah, No, I just sometimes I see cool stuff and
I think, well, that's really cool, when if anybody else
thinks that cool. Like one of the things on my
Christmas list that I'm asking for my kids is these
really nice wooden cutting boards and they're labeled and grooved
for meat, vegetables, bread, and uh fruit.

Speaker 5 (25:00):
The gift giving list sponsored by No, I'm just kidding.
I'm kidding. I'm kidding.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
We should sponsor it, but we're not. It's not sponsored,
so we shall see, we shall see.

Speaker 5 (25:11):
Okay, guys, I.

Speaker 7 (25:12):
Said it's not sponsored by It definitely was sponsored.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
It's not sponsored by anyone. I mean, don't get me wrong.
Oprah's was sponsored. So if all of these people, maybe
we'll do it this year and next year we'll just
send them how successful it was and attribute all of
their Denver sales to whatever it.

Speaker 5 (25:32):
Is to She owns it. Yes, Oprah does got it.
I see what you did.

Speaker 4 (25:38):
I see what you did there today's show. It's kind
of sad that we just squandered all that. But there's
so much stuff on the blog today that I wanted
to get to. I'm gonna squeeze this in in a
minute before I have to take a break. You know,
Denver's downtown office buildings, the older office buildings are practically
a steel Two more buildings sold in on seven Street

(26:00):
in downtown Denver.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
Now.

Speaker 5 (26:02):
The properties.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
Last sold in twenty twenty, and when they last sold,
one sold for two hundred and five million and the other,
sorry I had to sneeze, sold for one hundred and
ninety five million. So two hundred and five million and
one hundred and ninety five million, those two buildings just
sold for twenty eight point seven million dollars apiece. That

(26:31):
is an absolute cratering of our real estate values downtown,
and somebody needs to be asking serious questions, why did
you just sell this building for this amount of money? Well,
office vacancies downtown are insane, absolutely nuts. But the reality
is is that I'm wondering how much of this is
directly attributable to the new Denver green energy standards that

(26:56):
are going to cost a like a massive fortune to retrofit,
especially older buildings, to meet the new standards. I'm curious
nobody seems to be asking this question when people who
are talking about it are talking and they're not talking
to me. Your shoutouts for your veterans in your life,
just send them to five six six'.

KNOW i am all about helping us have our best
lives and going through life and through, retirement having a,
happy healthy.

Speaker 5 (32:28):
Lifespan and my next guest is a.

Speaker 4 (32:30):
Guy who's taken a simple concept and attached it to,
science and you know science is always better than just a,
concept and joining me now to talk about. It he
is the bucket List. Doctor his name is Doctor Jeffrey,
disarbo and we are going to talk to him about
why a bucket list could be just the thing you
need to really inspire you to have purpose as we

(32:52):
go through. Life Doctor, disarbo welcome to the. Show first of,
all thank you so, Much.

Speaker 8 (32:56):
Mandy i'm really happy to be.

Speaker 5 (32:58):
Here so let's start with it's the.

Speaker 4 (33:00):
Concept i'm sure most people in the listening audience know
what a bucket list. Is but what is a bucket?
List how do you define?

Speaker 6 (33:06):
That, yeah, well people think of the traditional bucket list
kind of goes back to the movie With Morgan freeman
And Jack, nicholson you, know kind of checking off things
you do before you die while you're. HERE i like
to reframe that and say a bucket list is really
things you do while you have the opportunity to be
living on this.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
Plan, yeah it's not just for.

Speaker 6 (33:25):
RETIREMENT i encourage very young people to start thinking with
this type of mentality of doing things that have purpose
that you're deciding what to do with the, intentionality it
gives you. Gratitude so it isn't just, about you, know
visiting all the seven continents of the world and jumping
out of. Airplanes it's about doing things that have purpose

(33:48):
and meaning to.

Speaker 4 (33:48):
You so let me ask you this, question how does
this all work to be a positive for us? Overall,
say AND i told you this off the Air i've.
HAD i didn't call it a bucket list WHEN i started,
it But i've had a version of a bucket list
SINCE i was in my mid thirties of stuff THAT
i just wanted to. Accomplish and some of it is
so dumb from the outside looking, In but for whatever,
reason it's on my, list, Right how does that help?

Speaker 5 (34:11):
Me how does that help me moving?

Speaker 6 (34:13):
Forward, well one of the biggest THINGS i think it
does in today's world is we make the. Plans it
gives us time to think about what do we want
to do with our lives when the world sometimes seems
a little bit out of control and a little. Chaotic
when we think about what we want to do while we're,
here make some plans things that again have that meaning to.

(34:36):
Us the way it helps us is it really shapes the.
Brain it keeps it, growing brain, regions brain, chemistry everything
that starts to can sometimes decline under stress and underage
kind of is it's like mental exercise with a bucket
list to keep your brain in shape and.

Speaker 8 (34:54):
Healthy but does it go further than?

Speaker 4 (34:56):
That And i'm going to give you an example of
What i'm talking about. HERE i always thought that when
you have goals or you have things that you want to,
achieve that in and of, itself that process can help
you sort of stay the course and can EVEN i,
think affect your physical.

Speaker 5 (35:11):
Health And i'm going to use this as an.

Speaker 4 (35:12):
Example i've known now multiple people who SAID i want
to live to be one hundred years. Old that was
just the stated. Gold one of them, SAID i want my,
card my birthday card from The, president okay because at
the time the president seld sent out birthday. Cards and
then the other one just SAID i wanted to live
to be one. Hundred one of them lived to be
ninety nine and died two days before his birthday because

(35:35):
what came in the mail his birthday card from the.
President and then the other one lived to be one
hundred and like five days and they turned one. Hundred
it was, like, okay that was the last THING i
had to check in my. Box is there any chance
that those things are actually? CONNECTED i believe one hundred.
Percent they are our.

Speaker 6 (35:54):
Brains and there's multiple examples of People i've worked with
over the years and in my personal life that you,
know find a reason to stay, present whether that's physically
present on this planet or stay present and alert to
what's going on with their own lives by making those,
plans having those goals that they want to.

Speaker 8 (36:12):
Seek out for.

Speaker 6 (36:13):
Themselves and it isn't just like, motivation it's the chemistry
behind it with the brains and the brain systems that
kind of stay active because a lot of, people if
they don't do things like, this the curiosity kind of goes,
away and they need that novelty to keep the brain
exercising and. Healthy so it's definitely something that is you,

(36:37):
know BECAUSE i always say it's anti.

Speaker 8 (36:39):
Aging you, know it's an anti aging process for.

Speaker 4 (36:41):
People so how does one go about figuring out what
should be on their bucket?

Speaker 8 (36:45):
List?

Speaker 6 (36:47):
Well it you, know it can be in some ways very, simple,
right but it's it means more when you do it
in a little bit of a format and an understanding behind.
It in a structured way of keeping. Track you want
to start with making categories even before you start filling
in those. Categories like in my book and work, BOOK
i have over one hundred, categories things like, mindfulness, travel,

(37:09):
adventure but there's also things to do near, home things
that are free. HOBBIES i have a category called Reach
goals things that you may want but it might be a,
stretch but you still put it. Down it keeps you
vigilant to things that opportunities that come along in.

Speaker 8 (37:26):
Life so it all begins by just a.

Speaker 6 (37:30):
Thought you know a lot of times when people SAY
i have zero clue how to. START i, Say, okay
let me just give me one, thought tell me something
that's meaningful to you that maybe you haven't gotten around
to that you want to, do and that's where it
all starts and you start filling in those.

Speaker 8 (37:44):
Categories so in my in.

Speaker 4 (37:47):
My bucket, list it's a mix of stupid, stuff and
it's a mix of big, swings, right and some of
those big swings are probably not going to, happen, Right
AND i just, wonder is that do you want to
die with a bunch of things on your list that
didn't get, Accomplished because that's really What i'm going, For
LIKE i want to go out. GOING i still haven't
time in aerobics, class you.

Speaker 5 (38:07):
KNOW i, mean what's the better way to look at?

Speaker 6 (38:10):
This, WELL i don't think you just want to think
about these grandias types of adventures that may be out
of the. Reach but LIKE i, said one of the
things in my bucket list IS i want to go
to outer. Space but that's under my reach. Goal, NOW
i might not get, there AND i understand, that you,
know but IF i ever have the. Opportunity that's why
every Time i'm on a show like, THIS i always, say.

Speaker 8 (38:31):
If Jeff bezos Or Elon musk is.

Speaker 5 (38:33):
Listening please just make me the.

Speaker 8 (38:34):
Offer i'll talk about.

Speaker 5 (38:36):
It trust.

Speaker 4 (38:36):
Me jeff And elon AND i we talk all the.

Speaker 6 (38:38):
Time.

Speaker 4 (38:39):
Doctor, yeah at the same.

Speaker 6 (38:43):
Time you, know there's a lot of goals when you
sit down. There you, know we were talking a little bit.
BEFORE i took an acting class In. APRIL i took
ACTUALLY i signed up for a, second SO i took
sixteen weeks of. Acting i'm a. Psychiatrist i'm, Like i'm
not trying to become an actor. There BUT i saw
a sign on a telephone poll that said acting. CLASS

(39:04):
i ripped off the, thing made the call because, novelty
doing something new and different is really good for the.
Brain AND i had a ball and it released this chemical.
Oxytocin Because i'm meeting, People i'm socializing in a world
that's all becoming. Electronic so so, yeah you can have
those wild. Things but there's a lot when you think about,

(39:25):
it and once you start this, process it's amazing how
you just start having more and more, ideas and that
proactive process is one of the healthiest things we can
do for.

Speaker 4 (39:35):
Ourselves how valuable is the process of just getting over
your fear of, embarrassment fail your you, know all of
those things that your lizard brain kicks in to tell
you shouldn't do this, thing like take an acting. Class
that's kind of A i, mean that's for a lot
of people that would be absolutely. Terrifying but how do
you get past that OF i might look dumb IF

(39:57):
i take a tap dancing.

Speaker 6 (39:57):
Class, well first of, all you put them on your bucket,
list and then and then you start doing the ones
that maybe you can begin with and. Tolerate and once
you get that, experience it's kind of exposure, therapy. Right
you're showing yourself and your brain that you can actually do.

Speaker 8 (40:14):
Things they can be. Fun you move on to the,
next you know it.

Speaker 6 (40:18):
Is that's Why i'm, saying that's why my, book you,
know the neuroscience of a bucket list is so. Different
it's a different. Look AND i try to tell people
don't skip the chapters on the science because if you
read those, chapters you'll know more than ninety five percent
of the people in the world about the brain and
how it.

Speaker 8 (40:35):
Works that alone is a powerful.

Speaker 4 (40:37):
Tool the book by Doctor Jeffrey disarbo is, fantastic and
you can find it on his, website WHICH i link to.
Today on the, blog it's Called The neuroscience of a Bucket,
List getting The most from Your brain and Your. Life
there's also a workbook that comes along with, us Doctor.
DISARBO i appreciate you both working in this field BECAUSE
i think this is super interesting AND i can't wait

(40:59):
to hear from my listener here in just a minute
what their bucket list items, are BECAUSE i think everybody
in a way has that sort OF i don't know
they have, one even if it's not a formal, one like,
oh you, know WHEN i, Retire i'm going TO x Y.
Z so maybe this will just kind of push things
along a little.

Speaker 6 (41:15):
Bit, yeah don't, wait get started right, away you. Know
and it's LIKE i, said, Yeah I'm i'm a. Psychiatrist
i'm not trying to sell. Books but Everybody i've talked
to who've looked at it has started making changes almost
within the first. Week and you mentioned it is on the,
website but it's On amazon and all the other book
places too if people are.

Speaker 8 (41:36):
Interested SO i do.

Speaker 5 (41:38):
Want to say.

Speaker 4 (41:38):
THIS i think that because of the way that we
are sort of, told which is good, advice, right like
plan for the, future plan for a, retirement plan for,
this making sure you're going To BUT i think too
many people put off life Thinking i'll do it WHEN i,
retire when in, reality most of us retire when we're
not in our peak physical. Condition you, know that's the

(41:59):
worst time to get on with your bucket. List So
i'm hoping this conversation today inspires people to go ahead
and get cracking on.

Speaker 8 (42:06):
That, yeah don't wait till.

Speaker 6 (42:08):
Later once once we get over the age of FORTY
o our kenaro transmitters still me serotonin norpeffer, adrenaline they
all start to.

Speaker 8 (42:17):
Decrease by ten per. Decade oh.

Speaker 6 (42:19):
Wow you know by starting, this you, know the sooner
someone starts, it the healthier they keep that. Brain and
that's that WHAT i was talking, about the anti aging
effects of.

Speaker 4 (42:29):
It Doctor jeffrey disarbo is the bucket list doctor dot.
COM i put a link on the. Website thank you
so much for your time. Today thank, You, manny, anytime all,
right have a great. Day i'd love to know what
do you have a bucket? List, Hey, rod you're, young
so you probably haven't started thinking about. This BUT i
started mine WHEN i was about thirty, five so not
much older than you are.

Speaker 5 (42:50):
Now, NO i just do the. THINGS i don't really
make the.

Speaker 4 (42:54):
List there's there are, doing there's doing the, things and that's,
fantastic but there's things that you put it, LIKE i
would like at some point to walk that hike The Appalachian.
TRAIL i probably won't be able to do it in
a straight, through But i'm planning. ON i want to
make that a part of my.

Speaker 7 (43:09):
RETIREMENT i THINK i probably like have an unofficial, one
like doing the Manituin incline was on the right bucket, list.

Speaker 4 (43:15):
Right but you don't have a formal. ONE i think
everybody kind of has that in the back of their.
Mind mind some of mine are. RIDICULOUS i, mean the
most ridiculous thing you'll never. Do, well, well the most
ridiculous thing that's on my bucket lab, well the thing
that's on my bucket list THAT i probably will never
do for no apparent. REASON i have taken aerobics CLAS
i have teach an aerobics class on my bucket. LIST

(43:37):
i don't take aerobics, classes, RIGHT i, Don't so why is?

Speaker 8 (43:41):
IT i don't. KNOW i have no.

Speaker 4 (43:42):
IDEA i just put it on. There And i'm, like
you know, what it's staying on. There and then there's
the other. ONE i want to become a private detective
just SO i can get business cards. Made that's A
Mandy connell Private dick.

Speaker 5 (43:55):
Private. Detective you know WHAT i. Mean that's all it would.
Be it would be.

Speaker 4 (44:00):
Great i'm gonna be super. Fun but, Well i'd like
to hike The Appalachian. Trail i'd like to circumvent The
earth in one, trip not at one. TIME i would
like to take a trip that starts In New york
and goes, east AND i would like to go all
the way around The, earth stopping in different places all
the way around The.

Speaker 5 (44:20):
EARTH i want to do that and end up In New. York.

Speaker 4 (44:21):
Again that's on my bucket. List, see these are things
that you can't just go do. Right they require number one,
Money number two, time you, know and number three. Effort
but they have them in money being the first. TWO
i should have asked them.

Speaker 7 (44:35):
THIS i think there's IF i were to THINK i an,
official really cool long, List i'd start to feel like,

That oh you heard that story like forty years.

Speaker 7 (45:32):
AGO i.

Speaker 4 (45:34):
Did it was fantastic, Anyway, Uh texas your bucket list.
Items there's an interesting story on the blog today that
kind of goes along with what Doctor disarmo was talking.
About about how to go through retirement with. Purpose we
know we know that there's an epidemic of loneliness among older,
adults and it's.

Speaker 5 (45:52):
Significant people who.

Speaker 4 (45:55):
Don't have a social circle are far more likely to
have dementia. Issues there far more likely to suffer from grinding.
Loneliness it leads to other health. Problems, well there's a
program at Do you AND i got this from our
friends At denver. Seven they it's Called See You Denver's
Change Makers, program and it's a program for people reaching retirement,

(46:17):
age just in, retirement and it has, tools guest, speakers,
activities and they're trying to help you figure out what
your purpose in the next phase of your life is
going to. Be and, guys having a, purpose having a
reason to get up every day and do something is
one of the easiest things you can do to ensure

(46:39):
that you have a long health span and a happy.
RETIREMENT i have had the great privilege WHEN i used
to sell insurance In florida to older. PEOPLE i met
the most interesting, PEOPLE i mean just fascinating, people AND
i got to see how mindset deeply affected the quality
of one's life in the old the later, YEARS i

(47:01):
had a claim who was like eighty five years, old
and twice a week her, daughter who was like sixty,
five came and picked her up and took her to
what she called the Old Folks, home where she read
to people at the Old Folks home who were like
ten years younger than she.

Speaker 5 (47:15):
Was but it kept her.

Speaker 4 (47:17):
Busy she was in the garden, club and she didn't
do like multiple things on one day because she said
some days at eighty, five her body just decided that
wasn't the day to do.

Speaker 3 (47:26):
That but she was.

Speaker 5 (47:27):
Involved she was very involved in her.

Speaker 4 (47:29):
Church she was very involved in the, COMMUNITY i, mean
and she had this, wonderful wonderful. Life and THEN i
had people who had retired at sixty five and they
sat down in their chair and they didn't get back,
up and they were dead by.

Speaker 5 (47:42):
Seventy so it's all incredibly.

Speaker 4 (47:45):
Important and one of the things THAT i the happiest
people THAT i saw in retirement were the people that
felt like they had a reason to get up every.
Day and guess, what sometimes it's not going to be
your grandkids like we all, Think, Oh i'm just gonna
spend more time with our. Grandkids your grandkids are, grown you,
know they have their own, Lives so what is your?

did not have a lot of, money she made a
deal with a local vet that they would take care
of end of life stuff and she would give these

Mandy my bucket list is to make it to have

Mandy my grandmother in law did something. Similar she kept
telling us to come over and choose things we. WANTED
i told my WIFE i was not going to Go
ransacker house while she is sitting and watching.

Speaker 5 (52:37):
Us felt a little.

Speaker 4 (52:38):
Morbid one of my former grandmothers in law had post
it notes on all of her stuff with people's names written.
On it was very effective till people started to change the,
notes just.

Speaker 5 (52:50):
Kidding that didn't happen THAT i know.

Speaker 4 (52:52):
OF i got to talk About Denver Public School Superintendent
Alex morrero because he's lying and he's publicly, Lying and
here's WHAT i think.

Speaker 5 (53:01):
Happened AND i just want to be.

Speaker 4 (53:03):
Clear this is all a theory on my, part, speculation
if you, will based on years of experience watching similar
people do similar.

Speaker 5 (53:11):
Things what AM i talking?

Speaker 9 (53:12):
About?

Speaker 4 (53:13):
Funny Chicago Public schools just announced they had two finalists
for their finalist position to be superintendent Of Chicago Public.
Schools do you know who's on that short list of?
Two Alex, morero currently the superintendent Of Denver Public.

Speaker 5 (53:35):
Schools, now last month.

Speaker 4 (53:39):
There was a big rumor mill that started that he
was leaving for a chancellor's job in The New York
City public school. System, now what's really really irritating about
this is That Alex morrero is just.

Speaker 5 (53:52):
Lying he's.

Speaker 4 (53:54):
Lying when asked for a, statement he, said, WELL i
have great respect For Chicago Public schools and appreciate the
professional recognition implied by recent speculation about my potential candidacy for.
SUPERINTENDENT i want to be clear that my dedication remains
firmly With Denver Public, schools WHERE i am proud to
continue serving as. Superintendent let me tell you WHAT i

(54:17):
think happened. Here he may remember just last, year the
Very morrero friendly board before the, elections against the wishes
of the public who turned, out decided to extend Mister morrero's,
contract and they made it harder for a new board

(54:37):
to fire. Him here's WHAT i think, happened because let
me just say, this there is a zero percent chance
That Alex morero did not apply to be superintendent Of
Chicago Public. Schools if he is a finalist for that,
job you don't just get plucked out of obscurity The

(54:57):
Chicago Public school where didn't just sit there and, go
let's look around the country and see who.

Speaker 5 (55:02):
We want to whoo.

Speaker 4 (55:04):
Away i've been through superintendent searches in so many different
school districts at this, point this is beyond. Absurd this
man is out applying for other. Jobs, now don't get me.
WRONG i hope he gets. ONE i hope he gets
hired away by some school board full of, suckers AND
i hope that we can be rid of his victim

(55:25):
centered race baiting ideology once for. All that would make me.
Happy but for him to, say, oh my dedication, REMARKS
i think he applied for jobs in order to force
the board's. Hand, now the really interesting part here is
that if he, applied AND i know he, did because
he was not just named a finalists because his name

(55:47):
is out, There that's not how it, Works that's not
how it happens at.

Speaker 5 (55:51):
All why didn't he remove his.

Speaker 4 (55:55):
Name from consideration?

Speaker 5 (55:57):
Before?

Speaker 4 (55:57):
Now my theory is that he was going to ride
this process through Because chicago they shrouded their search in.
Secrecy you don't even, know because they want to protect
like good people who are already. Employed we don't want
their bosses to know that we're trying to woo them.
Away so if he just did it to get his contract,
extended why didn't he tell them before now that he was?

(56:18):
Out that's question number one and question number, two or
rather statement number two by. ME i think he thought
he could ride this through the process and then be
announced the superintendent Of Chicago Public schools as a sure,
thing and then, go oh, yeah, sorry, Guys i'm LEAVING.

Speaker 5 (56:37):
DPS i have a couple.

Speaker 4 (56:39):
Questions how is he allowed to search for another job
when he's under? Contract and that's a real genuine, question
because guess, What i'm a stupid radio host and in my,
CONTRACT i am prohibited from even engaging in a conversation
with anyone at another station until the last thirty days that.

Speaker 5 (56:59):
My contract is an. EFFECT i am.

Speaker 4 (57:01):
Prohibited so how is this clown allowed to go and,
apology you, know apply for other? Jobs he's, not he's
no more committed To Denver Public. Schools says he puts
his finger in the wind and just puts it up
there to decide where he should what he should do.
Next and he's given me some sense of security now
because the, board by the, way three or four of

(57:23):
which were voted, out Including Mary parker excuse, me wrong school.
Board it's including so she got. Time so the board
makeup is much different, Now it's going to be much
different going. Forward and the old board tied the hands
of the new. Board and WHAT i would love is
if the new board came in and, said you know,
what let's vote on reversing that. Rule not reversing the,

(57:45):
contract not reversing not Firing Alex, burrett but let's reverse
the rule that the last board put in place in
order to tie our. Hands that would be step number.
One that would put Mister morero. On notice that he
should probably be looking for another. JOB i really don't.

Speaker 10 (58:03):
Know he did.

Speaker 4 (58:04):
Not The Denver gazette Says morrero did not deny or
confirm he.

Speaker 5 (58:08):
Is seeking the.

Speaker 4 (58:09):
Job and listen to that statement again now knowing WHAT
i just told. You WHILE i have great respect For
Chicago Public schools and appreciate the professional recognition implied by
recent speculation about my potential, candidates what a just, God,
denver why do you put up with this?

Speaker 5 (58:30):
Guy why would?

Speaker 1 (58:33):
YOU i, mean.

Speaker 4 (58:36):
It's baffling to me that this man still has a, Job.
Mandy bucket list's, items write an influential, book become A putnam.
Fellow i'm still working on MY ds, Degree. Mandy why
does he have so much leverage when he isn't even
that great at his. Job he is A latino, man
A hispanic, man as so she Got tad loves to, Say,

a year In. Afghanistan and when my daughter graduates FROM
rotc program in the, spring she's slated to become one
of the first few female submarine. OFFICERS i could not
be on a submarine Man wolf cannot do. That, Uh,
mandy maybe you can answer this question for. Me why
Is Bernie sanders so popular among those on the. Left

(01:01:14):
he's never held a real. Job he's just been a career,
politician like the rest of those that reside or work In,
washington D. C i'm genuinely curious and maybe you can
provide an. Answer So i'm gonna and there's more of the,
questions But i'm just gonna answer it this. Way Bernie
sanders runs around demonizing the, rich telling people that the
reason they aren't a millionaire or a billionaire is because

(01:01:36):
a millionaire or a billionaire.

Speaker 5 (01:01:37):
Took it from.

Speaker 4 (01:01:38):
Them this feeds into people's most basic notion that the
world is unfair and must be made fair by people
Like Bernie, sanders instead of doing some introspection and thinking to,
themselves why DIDN'T i Start amazon in my garage Like Jeff,
Bezos why DIDN'T i come.

Speaker 5 (01:01:54):
Up With microsoft Like Bill? Gates why DIDN'T i do those?

Speaker 4 (01:01:57):
Things instead of, that they choose the easy based on
greed and, envy and they just go after someone else's.
Stuff it's a very seductive. Pitch, really anything that takes
the onus of personal responsibility off you is a very seductive,
pitch which is why we have free lunch here In
colorado for every, student whether or not their parents are

(01:02:17):
rich or.

Speaker 5 (01:02:18):
Not it's an easy to understand pitch in my.

Speaker 4 (01:02:21):
Mind mandy's shout out to All Air Force academy, graduates
especially the class of ninety, Two True blue ninety Two,
Mandy World War, Two my dad and three, uncles, army my, aunt, army,

Week Vet army out in seventy.

Speaker 5 (01:06:10):
Nine oh, yeah happy, Veterans.

Speaker 4 (01:06:14):
Diady you got a couple of STORIES i want to
talk about. One there's been a lot of concern in
the gay, community And i've talked to gay people who
have this. Concern SO i know people who have shared
this with me and, others and some of them are
very conservative gay, people and they're, like, Look i'm a
little concerned because back When roe. V wade was tossed.
Out in his concurrence to that opinion About roe. V,

(01:06:38):
Wade Clarence thomas, said, look we may need to look
at some other cases that were decided based on a
legal standard that may not be a great legal. Standard
it's not That Clarence thomas was, like we need to
go after gay, marriage but a lot of people took
that to mean that there was a possibility That oberfells
Versus hodges could be overturned and therefore put the national

(01:07:00):
allowance for gay marriage in. Danger and there are people
who were genuinely concerned about, this and The Supreme court
had the opportunity to do just. That When kentucky Former
Kentucky County Clerk Kim davis appealed a series of decisions
that were made when, she after the overfelt decision was,
made refused to sign gay marriage certificates in her in

(01:07:23):
her county In. Kentucky and it went all the way
up to The Supreme court and they were, like. Nope
well she appealed it, again and The Supreme court basically, said,
no we're Not we're Not we're not reviewing. That we're
just not looking at. It so that's fantastic for gay.
Marriage you don't have to worry about. THAT, i by the,
way promised my gay friends that if anything came to

(01:07:45):
threaten their, MARRIAGES i would be marching with them on that.

Speaker 5 (01:07:48):
ONE i really.

Speaker 4 (01:07:49):
Would gay marriage hasn't hurt a single person in this,
country it, REALLY i mean the only, well it's enriched
some divorce. Lawyers do you want to know what interesting
is to? TIS i look this up recently to make
sure it's. True do you know the demographic with the
lowest divorce rate is gay. Men the second lowest divorce

(01:08:12):
rate is HOMOSEXUAL i mean it's heterosexual. Couples the highest
divorce rate is. Lesbians AND i was talking to a
friend of mine about, this who is a, lesbian AND i,
said why is? This she, goes, WELL i mean it's two, Women,
like how are you going to make that? Work AND

(01:08:33):
i started, laughing but THEN i was, like oh, yeah
and she, said, really the problem is lesbians go on
a first date and they move in together the second, date,
Right and so a lot of rushes from. That, mandy
greetings to you And chuck from First group Nom will
In Colorado. Springs, Okay, mandy instead of cleaning out my
house as a bucket, List i'm going to include cleaning
out my. Garage that's a reference to an interview we

(01:08:55):
did in the last. Hour that's a, terrible, terrible terrible
thing to put on your bucket. List let's talk about
another terrible thing for just a, moment and this is
the fact that motorcycle deaths In colorado are in a
very very bad. Place we have far too many, people
and far too many of them are very, YOUNG i

(01:09:16):
mean in their. Twenties not to say that if you
die in a motorcycle accident when you're, fifty that's any,
loss but it always feels worse when you just see
a wasted, future, Right you just see the wasted potential
in The wasted. Future but this article has some pretty
startling numbers in. It we've already had more than one

(01:09:36):
hundred motorcycle deaths this. Year in the last three, years
we have seen an enormous jump in motorcycle deaths one
hundred and sixty five motorcycle fatalities in twenty twenty. Four
that's a sixty percent increase from the one hundred and
three to twenty eighteen and as of right, now an

(01:09:57):
estimated one hundred and fifteen riders have died in twenty twenty.
Five motorcycle riders account for twenty four percent of all traffic,
fatalities but they only comprise three percent of registered. Vehicles
forty four percent of those killed were not wearing. Helmets
you know the interesting thing about that. Statistic that means

(01:10:17):
that fifty six percent of the people who died in
motorcycle accidents were wearing. Helmets i'm just saying, Now i'm
not saying don't wear a. HELMET i, Mean i'd want
to protect my nog and if it were, Me But
i'm not a motorcycle, enthusiast SO i you, know here's
the thing about motorcycles THAT i.

Speaker 5 (01:10:36):
Have trouble with because in this, article.

Speaker 4 (01:10:40):
There's a lot of fingerpointing going on in this, article
and part of it, is you, know drivers just are paying. Attention,
okay that is absolutely, right one hundred. Percent we wouldn't
have auto accidents like we do if everybody was paying.

Speaker 5 (01:10:52):
Attention but everybody.

Speaker 4 (01:10:53):
Isn't but if you're riding a, motorcycle you've chosen a,
wildly inherently more dangerous form of. Transportation i'm locked in
a steel.

Speaker 5 (01:11:04):
Box you're out.

Speaker 4 (01:11:07):
There and don't get me, Wrong i'm not hating on motorcycle,
riders but this brings out the mom and, me the
just the protective side of, me And i'm just, LIKE
i just don't know if it's worth. It somebody on
the text line Said mandy to preempt the motorcycle, CONVERSATION
i want statistics showing the difference between crotch rocket deaths

(01:11:27):
versus roadster. Deaths And i'm going to extrapolate something out,
Here so the numbers of who's been killed and how
old they are would to me indicate that more of
those people are going to be in the crotch rocket
group because crotch rockets are a young man's, game, Right

(01:11:48):
And i'm sure that there are men who are fifty
years old who ride a crowch rocket and love. It
but for the most, part the guys WHO i know
who are my age who do ride motorcycles are very
happy to cruise a lot on their. Roadsters they're not
out there letting the, senity you, know land speed. Rerecords
they've been, there they've done. That it's the young, people
and they're getting killed in a in a big. Way

(01:12:11):
colorado riders one hundred and seventy seven fatalities in the
twenty to twenty nine age, group one hundred and sixty
in the thirty to thirty nine, group and this is
from the twenty eighteen to twenty twenty three. Period older
riders over the age of, fifty those are going to
be your. Roadsters that's only thirty five percent of. Fatalities, so, Yeah,

(01:12:33):
mandy they call the helmet wears the non helmet wears
organ donors because they live long enough to make it
to the. Hospital, no that's the helmet. Wears you're, right
sorry about, That. Mandy have you seen the crazy way
these young guys Arrive they drive? Crazy, yep, Yep, mandy
this lane filtering, splitting what are the death stats with?
That organ donations should be a mandatory for a motorcycle.

(01:12:57):
LICENSE i hate to say, it but sad but, true
and they are since lane filtering went into effect as
a legal thing In. Colorado and lane filtering is when
you are going very very very slowly coming up to an,
intersection you are allowed as a motorcyclist to go in
between the slowing cars to get up to the front

(01:13:19):
of the line to reduce rear in collisions at the.
INTERSECTION i understand the science behind, it but apparently there's
a lot of young motorcyclists who are too stupid to
understand the distinction between lane filtering and lane, splitting which
is what you see ON i twenty five now with
these young idiots tearing down the road in THEIR t,
shirts their, shorts their flip flops and their helmet going

(01:13:41):
seventy miles an hour when everybody else is. Stopped that
is still illegal and that is a big REASON i
am not crazy about motorcycles In colorado right. Now, now
if you're like me and you Love christmas stuff and
maybe you like to go to The Denver Chris Kindle.
Marketer you want to go see The denver tomato. Cage
What i'm talking. About, oh it's the mile high.

Speaker 5 (01:14:02):
Tree my.

Speaker 4 (01:14:03):
Bad looks like a giant tomato cage to.

Speaker 5 (01:14:05):
ME i stand by. That stand by.

Speaker 4 (01:14:08):
It, well they've had to move both of them because
Both Civic center And Skyline park are in the midst
of getting a little bit of a glow. Up AND
i actually think this is going to be, better And
i'll tell you. Why first of, all The Chris Kindle
market is our version of A European christmas. Market, eh you,
know does a pretty good, job but after Seeing European christmas,

(01:14:29):
markets there's a lot more we can.

Speaker 1 (01:14:32):
Out i'm just.

Speaker 4 (01:14:32):
Saying, anyway it used to be In Civic Center park
and you would kind of walk to through the park
to go to This christmas market that was kind of
plopped in the middle, there and there's plenty of, space
but it does not at all feel.

Speaker 5 (01:14:46):
Like A European christmas.

Speaker 4 (01:14:47):
Market The European christmas markets are kind of tucked into these,
squares so you have buildings all around and there's you,
know things around. It it just feels very. Cozy so
the fact that they had to move it to The
Ara Area. Campus yes To Tivoli. QUAD i think that's
actually going to be. Better SO i believe The christmas

(01:15:08):
markets get started On november.

Speaker 5 (01:15:11):
Twenty, first.

Speaker 4 (01:15:15):
The Mile High, tree Don't i'm guessing that goes up
the day After. Thanksgiving if you want to watch The
Mile High drone, show which used to be able to
be seen From Civic Center, park it's also going to
be At Tivoli, quad so you can watch. There you
can set up the sculpture garden The Denver Performing Arts.
Complex that's going to be. Cool and then with, construction

(01:15:36):
The Denver Downtown rink will be closed At Skyline. Park,
however there are still options. Available McGregor square is having
skating right there in the middle of. It Halseion On
ice is located on the rooftop at The Halseon hotel
At Cherry. Creek the rink At.

Speaker 5 (01:15:55):

(01:17:20):
the year that we have seen political violence reach a
level that ended up with the death Of Charlie, kirk
we all need to do a better. Job we all
need to be, Better we all need to try, harder
because if we're, waiting if we're waiting for someone to
come save us from ourselves in this political, situation.

Speaker 5 (01:17:43):
No, one no one is going to save us with.

Speaker 4 (01:17:47):

Speaker 5 (01:18:21):
Gas there you, Go we'll be right.

Speaker 4 (01:18:23):
BACK i just Told Rabbi levan On november, first WHEN
i opened up my email box and there was my
email From Clean Speech colorado reminding me That november is
the month where they are going to help me be
the best version of. MYSELF i felt, grateful and not
THAT i didn't last year or the year before or
the year before, that when you, KNOW i but this,
year we've had a very very tough year when it

(01:18:45):
comes to political, violence when it comes to the ratcheting
up of the sort of angry violent talk that IS
i think incredibly dangerous to us, culturally And i'm very
worried about. Us we'll have that conversation at another, time
but here Comes Clean Speech colorado to remind you that
there is so much that is within your, control even

(01:19:06):
as there is so much that is not in your.

Speaker 5 (01:19:07):
Control And, rabbi every, year when do.

Speaker 4 (01:19:10):
We start at the, Beginning because there are people listening right,
Now i've never heard of Clean Speech? Colorado what is?

Speaker 9 (01:19:14):
It thank, you, welcome thank you for having me back
on the. Show it's my Seventh Clean Speech Colorado. November
and this was a program that we. Started it's an
education and awareness month about mindful speech based on, classic
Timeless jewish values of how we can communicate effectively and.

Speaker 8 (01:19:32):
Well and.

Speaker 11 (01:19:35):
Every november for these now is our seventh. YEAR i
can't believe.

Speaker 9 (01:19:38):
Myself we're trying to help to bring just bite, size
digestible lessons that are immediately applicable in terms of enabling
us to speak in a way that sits helps us
to relate better to each, other cause less harm in
the world in our, relationships and we're more effective at
communicating things that are important to us and communicating effectively

(01:19:58):
in the.

Speaker 11 (01:19:59):
World which is his years campaign is about, peace peaceful.

Speaker 9 (01:20:02):
Speech and The hebrew word for that is, shalom probably
one of the best known words Of hebrew that is
known around the. World and it's a it's like you,
said it's so timely because we are where it's it's
a it's a world with it's just wrought with strife
and conflict and uh and And i'm talking about fixing

(01:20:22):
the international conflicts around the. Globe i'm talking about developing
a shalmn, personality which means being a person who interacts
with others in a way that's, successful that's, peaceful that
makes them, comfortable that is in which we really we're communicating,
well we're seeing each. Other you're present and, uh and
you can, say and you can, speak and you can be,

(01:20:44):
heard and you can connect well and meaningfully and successfully
with the people that you talk to on, it whether
it's at work or as at home or as your.

Speaker 4 (01:20:52):
FRIEND i have a little bit of a theory here
after my first eleven days of clean Speech, colorado and that,
is you, KNOW i have met people in my, life
AND i grew up in The Deep, south The Bible.
BELT i don't THINK i knew A jewish person growing,
up And i'm not, kidding but people THAT i think
on The christian side have that shalom personality are the

(01:21:14):
people that you meet that after you have an interaction with,
them you feel. Better you walk away a little bit,
lighter maybe you walk away in a better mood than
you walked into the room with and you don't can't
necessarily put your finger on. It And i've always said
WHEN i meet those, people because generally those are the
people that are the most passionate about their evangelism and Their,

(01:21:35):
CHRISTIANITY i say they're filled with the spirit of The.
Lord in The jewish, tradition they're filled with. Shalom it's
kind of the same. Thing but it, really to me
so far has come down to be the person that
leaves the other person in a better space rather than
a worse.

Speaker 9 (01:21:51):
Space there are so many skills and techniques that a
person can't adopt if this is not, automatic needs your
natural way that one reacts and one.

Speaker 11 (01:22:02):
Interacts so we're trying to teach real practical.

Speaker 9 (01:22:06):
SKILLS i think in today's, world whether we're talking about
kids who went THROUGH covid as, kids or they're glued
to their social media and they're they're sadly losing some
of the natural skills of interacting well in person that
that we would you, know we would have expected them
to gain in pre prior, generations or perhaps that we

(01:22:27):
we were in a cancel culture spirit and this is
a society that's just far too quick to just cut
off conversation rather than having successful conversations for whatever. Reason
these are skills and techniques of speaking well that we
we need to, relearn and there are lots of, them
and they're little things. Too as an, example today we're

(01:22:49):
where we're we have we're reading lessons and we're and
every day we've got a two minute video for you
and you can digest. It you get in an, email
you can watch the, video you can read the read
the email takes two three, minutes and and we're we're
trying to enable people to develop a show and personality
and even to maintain it when you're in a difficult,
conversation because that's you, know that's when.

Speaker 5 (01:23:10):
The chips are.

Speaker 9 (01:23:10):
Down AS i, say it's it's easy to speak peacefully
with you know that your beloved and you all got
a good night's sleep and we're all well, fed.

Speaker 4 (01:23:18):
And you know we're just.

Speaker 5 (01:23:19):
Talking, yeah that's.

Speaker 9 (01:23:22):
Easy but much more challenging is when you want to
talk about. Politics so you want to talk about something
you you know that you care, about and you know
that the person that you're speaking with disagrees with, you
and you're ready.

Speaker 4 (01:23:34):
To have a.

Speaker 9 (01:23:34):
Conversation, well this could be this could go really, badly
and far too often what happens is we don't have
those conversations at all because we're unwilling to engage because
we know it's going to go. Badly we're not going
to be able to have this. Conversation, well and then
we're not expressing. Ourselves and that's also.

Speaker 4 (01:23:48):
True, well today's lesson was actually on. Transference and this
is WHAT i call the speeding cargoes pass to you
driving like a, maniac and you have a couple. Options
you can, honk you can flip them, off you can
go back and try and cut them off where you can,
go oh my, gosh maybe someone in their family just
had a heart attack and they're trying to get to the.
Hospital maybe they just lost their job and having a
terrible day and they're taking it out on other. DRIVERS i,

(01:24:10):
mean that's kind of the same. Thing but let me ask,
you when you're developing your own shalom. PERSONALITY i think
this is where people get caught up because IF i
wait long, enough the text line will have variations of
What i'm about to. Say i'm trying to have a shaloon, Personality,
rabbi But i'm dealing with people who have never understood the,
word and they don't want to have a shaloon? Personality

(01:24:31):
so how do you how do you navigate that without
being a? Pushover that's exactly what we're talking about in week.
Two we have four week.

Speaker 9 (01:24:40):
Topics the first one is kind of defining what a
sholen personality looks, like and then how do you take
that on the road and how do you? Drive and
how do you deal with people who you otherwise think
of as? Difficult, right sometimes we characterize someone as, Difficult
we almost think of ourselves as being sadly exempt from
treating them, nice the speaking to them in a nice way, saying.

Speaker 5 (01:25:00):
Well That pirson is.

Speaker 9 (01:25:00):
Difficult you're never going to have a wonderful and a
graceful interaction with, them so don't even. Try but that's
that's not our you, know and that's not what we.
Believe we believe that you could and you can gain
skills and you and you can deal with. That what
are some of the, skills so you mentioned the one from,
today which is to imagine that they're you, know you
have to a lot of these. Men you have to

(01:25:21):
do with empathy and they have to do with seeing
another person's reality and recognizing that they might be going
through something that you don't know anything. About they might
be speaking to you and from a place of emotion
that's caused by, something, someone and something other than.

Speaker 11 (01:25:35):
You it's not your. Fault they're not really upset with.
You transference is about they're not really upset with, you
but boy do they sound like?

Speaker 9 (01:25:41):
It and are you going to be able to be
mindful and to have the presence of mind in the
conversation to be able to recognize that that may be
causing this, discomfort this uncomfortable you, know interaction is the
way that they're speaking to, you WHICH i don't Like
and IF i can maintain that presence of mind AND
i can practice these, skills can become more, aware THEN

(01:26:02):
i don't get, FLUSTERED i don't have to respond in.
KIND i can keep my, CALM i cannot get, THROWN
i cannot take it, personally AND i can respond in
a way that Afterwards i'll be proud, Of i'll feel,
good and you know, what they'll probably calm down. Too,
actually If i'm able to maintain my own, calm this
is something that's not easy for most of, us and

(01:26:23):
it takes practice and it takes. Awareness and so that's
why we have these, campaign which is thirty lessons in
a row every, day two minutes a.

Speaker 11 (01:26:30):
Day and if you're thinking about these things throughout.

Speaker 9 (01:26:33):
Your, day our experience in our data shows that people
can really develop skills and speak differently and they can.

Speaker 8 (01:26:40):
Change.

Speaker 4 (01:26:41):
Well it's really in my mind about being in control
of your own, humanity, right being in control of how
you react to. People and one of the things that
it's both a blessing and a curse of this job
is because of the amount of vitriol That i've gotten
over the, years AND i always say It denver's been.
FANTASTIC i least amount of ugly hate mail That i've
ever gotten Since i've been. Here but it hardens you

(01:27:03):
to that kind of, criticism and that's a blessing to
not respond when someone says something, awful or to respond
by Saying i'm not affected by what you just said
in genuine, honesty to be able to say you did
not affect me. Negatively so if you want to have a,
conversation we can have a, conversation But i'm not going
to let you affect. Me and it seems to me
that being able to maintain control of your own emotions

(01:27:26):
and maintain control of the, situation that's a very powerful
tool to, have super.

Speaker 9 (01:27:31):
POWERFUL a lot of us want to influence. Others we
want our opinions to be, heard and you, know we
want to change the. World but if we're not able
to talk to people in a way that is going
to be, effective and they're not going to listen to
us because they're just we're just. Upset we just have
a fight instead of having a constructive. Conversation we're not
going to move the ball forward and the needle forward
in the way that we want. To so for, sure

(01:27:52):
these are real. Skills you're a person who has to
be able to talk about real.

Speaker 11 (01:27:55):
Issues you can't just not.

Speaker 5 (01:27:56):
Talk you're a. Professional it doesn't work as well.

Speaker 4 (01:27:59):
On the radio IF i just said here. QUIETLY i
learned that a long time, ago no sitting here quiet
ratings go.

Speaker 5 (01:28:03):
Down, yeah no.

Speaker 9 (01:28:04):
PROBLEM i wish allways were worried about our, ratings AND
i wish we would be find ways to actually have
the conversations that we'd like to have, them and then
the skills to have them in the way that will be.

Speaker 4 (01:28:11):
Effected so whatich and in every lesson you sort of
get the nuggetive judaism for lack of that way to put,
it that kind of explains the foundation of all of
these different. Things what kind of response have you, Gotten
BECAUSE i know that there's a ton of Non jews
that are in part Of Clean Speech, colorado what kind
of response do you get on that sort of little

(01:28:33):
educational piece that allows those of us who didn't grow
Up jewish to have a better understanding of what drives
the faith in the first.

Speaker 11 (01:28:39):
Place, sadly a lot of the feedback that we, GET
i think it is not from the. Audience you.

Speaker 9 (01:28:45):
Describe but a lot of the social media response we
get is ugly right, now there is so you can't
imagine how many daily negative comments we get which are
just just hate, mail just that gross stuff of.

Speaker 11 (01:28:55):
It you, know you have to do we have to
do with it.

Speaker 9 (01:28:57):
Too but generally, speaking when when we're talking to a
real human, being they're only.

Speaker 11 (01:29:03):
Appreciative right because these are these are timeless.

Speaker 9 (01:29:06):
Lessons there are lessons that every one of, Us jewish
or Non, jewish can can employ and can, appreciate and
they can help us immediately they interact with each, other
you know better clean anyone who did want to sign,
up doesn't cost anything to. Participate you just go to
cleanspeech dot com Slash colorado and you put your name
and your email in there and we'll send you a
two minute lesson a day for the remainder Of.

Speaker 4 (01:29:27):
November so This, texter Said, mandy The rabbi surely realizes
that most bosses don't have a shaloon. MINDSET i would
ARGUE i actually do have a boss with a shaloon.
Mindset Are our program Director Dave tepper is all about the,
zen giving positive feedback along with the negative. Feedback like
just staying even, keeled and it's it makes going to

(01:29:48):
work so much nicer that if you are a boss
and you don't think you have the shalo mindset this
these lessons cut across.

Speaker 9 (01:29:56):
Everything sure in the business, world there's an idea of
managing up that means that you are the supervisy and
you can help your supervisor to manage you better and more.

Speaker 11 (01:30:05):
Effectively that's a business. Concept in a conversation, concept the
concept is the.

Speaker 9 (01:30:10):
Same is that when you manage you, know when you,
control when you are in charge of the way that
you interact with, people it will affect the way that
they will interact with right and.

Speaker 11 (01:30:22):
With these are not just skills for dealing with the
people in your life that are.

Speaker 9 (01:30:25):
Easy these are things that will help to enable you
to have more effective conversations and interactions verbally or otherwise
with the people that are difficult and the people that
you have you have no choice but to be involved,
with like your boss or your.

Speaker 4 (01:30:38):
Neighbor, well and another aspect of, this whenever someone gets
married and they post something like give me your best marriage,
Advice my marriage advice is always the. Same always be
able to have the hard conversations and have them with
love in your heart like. THAT i think so many relationships,
falter whether it's a, friendship whether it's a whether it's a,
relationship a romantic, relationship because we somehow think not having

(01:31:03):
those hard conversations is going to be, easier right when
in the long run it just creates far more. Issues
how does this Specific shalom personality work in?

Speaker 9 (01:31:13):
Marriage it's the most powerful thing in all of the
closest relationships that we.

Speaker 11 (01:31:20):
Have so we talk about you brought up a, boss
but let's who do we really interact with all the.

Speaker 9 (01:31:25):
Time our, spouse our, family fause, family and the closest
close to be people to. Us and this is a
course of training in order to become more attuned to
them and to be more aware of the dynamics that
could be causing friction or if we do doing things,
well could be you, know bring more warmth and love

(01:31:46):
in our.

Speaker 11 (01:31:46):
Relationships and that's that's what we're really what we.

Speaker 9 (01:31:49):
Want we we we want all our relationships to, sing
and we want a happy, family and we want you,
know we want happy homes and happy. Relationships and that's
it's becoming harder and harder to come by so. Sad you,
know we believe that the divorce rate should be a
lot lower than we're.

Speaker 11 (01:32:06):
Seeing, Yep and that people should stop unfriending their family
members because on social media people. Vote how do we
get to that? People how many of? Us and this
is just a.

Speaker 9 (01:32:18):
Thing you, know there's that family member that we don't
invite to The thanksgiving, parties you, know the.

Speaker 11 (01:32:24):
Dinner how have we gotten? There so how do we
come back from?

Speaker 4 (01:32:26):
