Speaker 3 (00:26):
Guy you're thinking of a long time ago.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
Now Surveys and studies and such brought to you by
Jascasemedical dot Com. Movies are getting deadlier, Heidi. I'm not
talking about the violence. I'm referring to the dialogue. Researchers
analyzed one hundred and sixty thousand English language films. They
found that characters are talking about murder and killing more
frequently than ever before.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Researchers from the University of Maryla, University of Pennsylvania, and
Ohio State examined movie subtitles between nineteen seventy and twenty twenty.
They found it found they didn't flound it. They found
an upward trajectory in this type of dialogue. Seven percent
of all movies analyzes contained what they call murderous verbs
in their dialogue, but it was not limited to obvious
(02:20):
genres like action or thrillers. Research says, I can't talk
to it. Research says no. It says the casual discussion
of lethal violence has become normal in all types of movies,
even in like lovey movies. So they say that there's
like an issue. Apparently the view the world we view
the world is more dangerous and threatening because apparently, according
(02:43):
to movies.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
It really is.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
So be careful of that's sad surveys and studies and
such brought to you by jscasemedical dot com.

Did you Know? Brought to you by Genesis Goldira dot com. Heidi,
did you know that? In mid twenty thirteen, an earthquake
proof church was constructed in christ Church, New Zealand, using
mainly cardboard as a primary building material. They constructed it
from ninety eight giant cardboard tubes coded in multiple layers
of waterproof polyurethane. The cardboard cathedral costs six million dollars
(03:42):
to build. It's designed to last for about fifty years.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Okay, so holy cow, that's a big investment for.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
That does makes interesting. We don't know everything, but now
we know this now Big screen screen Brought to you
by Radiosavings dot Com. Jennifer Lopez is not bidding farewell
to her Sparkler. The Unstoppable actress is keeping the eight
point five carrot natural green diamond engagement ring she got
(04:12):
from a strange Hubby ben Affleck. So that happens all
the time, where you know, people have the big question
when you break up, do you keep the ring? Does
he get the ring? And does it matter if you
were engaged or if you're married. So anyway they have
the answer to theirs right there. And Scarlett Johansson will
be stepping into kind of a new role morning talk host.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
Now your scoop of the day comes your way. Courtesy
of jscasemedical dot com. Oh my goodness, this sounds like
something that would come out of a Dear John letter. Okay,
twenty five percent of adults have used a coupon on
a first date.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
I have no problems with the coop.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
So I was just gonna ask, kidie, what would you
think if we showed up for our first date and
I'd be like, let's dig through the coupons?
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Would you like I would not have a problem with that.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
What would you like? Would you like the buscus engravy?
Would you like flapjacks? You got two choices?
Speaker 6 (05:56):
Well, I think that type of a coupon might not
be a good thing. But if it's it's like saved
ten bucks on your fifty dollars bill, I'd be like,
that is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
And apparently in my fake date we had breakfast. I
don't know why I thought that. All right, moving right along, Yeah,
twenty five percent of adults have used a coupon on
a first date.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
I have no problem.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
So if you did that, you are not the only one.
It's the good news, and it is the food mashup
that no one else has been waiting for. I'm sure
of it. Crispy Cream has announced a collaboration with pop Tarts.
They're going to introduce three new zany options to the
donut chained shells for a limited time. Each new donut
in the Crazy Good line reflects a favorite pop Tart flavor.
(06:39):
It is a frosted strawberry dipped in shortbread icing and
stuff with strawberry filling. I just don't think this.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Sounds I kind of just like the regular glaze.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Yeah, what else do they have on here? Pieces of
strawberry pop tart on top of it. Next is a
frosted chocolate fudge donut with chocolate and brownie batter, butter
cream and crushed frosted chocolate he fudge pop tarts on
top of that one, and the third is a brown
sugar cinnamon donut topped with a buttercream flavor. Brown sugar
cinnamon cream cheese covered with frosted cinnamon roll pop tarts.
(07:12):
So that just sounds like sounds like a lot, but
it sounds like maybe everybody else is excited for it,
but that is still pop Tarts.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
But yeah, that sounds sounds like a lot of sugar.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Time now for dear letters. All right, I got a
Dear John letter. This might be the quickest Dear John
letter a response ever. He he hasn't seen it yet.
We'll see. We'll see what she says. Here we go,
Dear John. I have a rather high maintenance friend, and
(08:19):
I am a bit of an overthinker. But I think
I might have a problem. I called my friend to
check in. He ignored the call and texted, I'll call
you back in two minutes. That is not unusual, but
it's weird that he never called back. Now that on
its own would be fine. But an hour later he
posted on Facebook, the devil keeps trying to drag me down,
So pray for me because I won't let satan win.
(08:42):
So the question is this? Am I the satan he's
referring to? Or do you think he was talking about
something else? Should I ask him? Should I unfriend him?
Should I pray for him? I'm at a loss on
how to react to this. But if I tell him
I'm worried about him and he's talking about me and
I am the problem, that's not going to go well.
But if I don't think if I don't say anything,
(09:02):
he might think I don't care. Help. Signed very confused,
I added the name very confused. Wow, So what is
your first thing thought when you see this? Heidi?
Speaker 6 (09:13):
I think that they're going through something very serious and
you should be comforting your friend. Unless you know of
something that you did.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
There you go.
Speaker 6 (09:24):
If you've got a guilty conscience, then that's a different story.
Now you need to reach out to them and apologize.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
If there's something, but there's nothing.
Speaker 6 (09:31):
If you're in the you know, if you have no clue,
well you did, then it's clearly something that your friend
is struggling with then you need to be there for it.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Well, and here's the thing. I think sometimes we internalize
things too much, because I've actually been present where somebody
will make a comment that's a funny comment, everybody chuckles,
and then somebody else doesn't chuckle, and I'm like, everything okay,
and You're like, well, I thought that was rude that
he was talking about me that way. I'm like, he
wasn't talking about you. What are you talking about? We
just had that happen on New Year's Eve. We had
(10:01):
this discussion. We had some friends on New Year's Eve
that we talked to and this would have been I
don't know, years ago. They were at our house for
New Year's Eve and our son at the time, he's
like twenty eight now, but back then he was like fifteen,
and he came downstairs and he delivered a line from
the movie Ferrispielder's Day Off. He goes, you're still here,
go home? You know that that whole like if you
(10:22):
watch that scene. Our son had that memorized. He came
down it was like two in the morning and he
said that, and the friend felt we all chuckled. Everybody
that knew what was going on.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Last he was embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
She was so embarrassed and on the way home her
husband because she was like, boy, it was so sad,
and I hope everything's okay. And I thought that was
weird that Troy said that. He's like, that's a line
from me from a movie, and she didn't know that,
but she took that personally. And I think that's what's
going on right here. When this guy post, and I
don't know if it's a guy or lady whatever the friend.
When the friend posted the devil keeps trying to drag
(10:54):
me down. So pray for me because I won't let
say and win. I think there's like a point zero
five percent chance that you are the satan in this
question that you're asking unless.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
You less, you know what you did and you've got
a guilty conscience for a reason.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Yeah, so unless you did something and you're calling and
taunting and picking on them, But it doesn't sound like
it from the tone of your letter. It doesn't sound
like you would do that.
Speaker 6 (11:15):
And I don't think if he was really mad at you,
I don't think you would have responded. I'll call you
back in two minutes. Yeah, clearly something has.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Happened, and I'll be after that.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
He has some he or she has some major thing
going on in their life. That's why they didn't get
back to you right away. And you can be a
helping hand right now. You can reach out and say, hey,
if there's something that I can help with, let me know.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
You know, are you okay?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Are you okay?
Speaker 6 (11:37):
I'm your friend, I'm here for you. And if it
is something that you did that you're not aware of,
You're going to want to have that dialogue anyway, if
you value this friendship.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
If there's either way you need to reach out.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
There something I can do to help? Let me know
is it something I did? And I sure hope not.
I want to make sure like there's a way to
do this. It doesn't have to be weird, but I
think And if you.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
Send us this letter on a Monday and waited until
Thursday for our advice, it may be too late.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Again, this is kind of an odd thing, but appreciate
the letter. Hey, if you would like to chime in
with advice, you could do that at Facebook dot com,
slash John and Heidishow And I want to remind you
that we always keep the letters anonymous. We do that
for a reason because there are times where people are
talking about things that are you know, sensitive and whatever.
So if you ever want to submit a Dear John letter,
(12:23):
you can submit them. And there are times that I'll
even have people where they'll change a couple of the details,
you know, just to make sure that the person doesn't
know they're talking about them. So if you want to
do that, you can do that. And if you want
to do it where we don't even know who it's from,
you can submit that at the bottom of the page
at John and Heidishow dot com. It just shows up.
I don't even see your email address. If you want
to put that injury, you can, but you can keep
(12:45):
it super anonymous. So there are times that I get
those and I'll have people ask me and I'm like,
I have no idea where that came from. So again,

Fun fact for you, Heidi, Yoda was almost played by
a monkey, so instead of having the puppet it was
it frank Oz that voiced Yoda. I don't know it
was one of the people think it was, but instead
of that character, they almost had a monkey play Yoda.
While fun fact for you a Heidi to typing keyboards
used to be arranged alphabetically, so yeah, instead of the
(13:49):
qwe r t y keyboards, they used to be alphabetical.
They changed it to make things more functional. When a
computer when not a computer, what's that thing called the
typewriter arms had to swing move it over here. Fun
fact for you, Heiding, there's an island in Japan that
is only inhabited by bunnies. And yes you can visit
and pet the bunnies.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
I would love to say, go to that bunny.

Now some weird news brought to you by Weird Gift
of the Day dot com. This actually kind of makes
me mad. A man who cut himself shaving has been
awarded two and fifty dollars compensation. He sued the Razor Company.
Nick Silverthorne of London bought a supermarket brand razor from
a store. According to him, when he used it for
the first time, it cut both of his cheeks. He
(16:25):
claimed that one of the razor blades was detached and
the razor was faulty. Incredibly, he was awarded an out
of court settlement against this place and fifty dollars.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
The razor was faulty, that's a different story.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
He says. His injury was no ordinary shaving cut. It
sliced my skin and caused him to believe over twenty minutes.
The incident left him with a scar on his cheek,
and then the trauma of being cut led him to
have nightmares for months afterwards. Here's the thing I would say,
that was my question because I'm saying at a certain
point like, oh man, i just cut my right cheek
(16:59):
off the sink, Well, let's shave the left cheek, Like, no,
don't do it that way. That's just weird. Weird news
brought to you by Weird Gift of the Day dot Com.
Time now for the list brought to you by Jascasemedical
dot Com Words and Phrases band for twenty twenty five.
We posted the whole list yesterday and we're gonna go
(17:21):
through and do a few more era. Taylor Swift might
be the one to blame for that because of her
ERA tour. Apparently era was overused in twenty twenty four,
and they're saying, do not use it in twenty twenty five.
How about the word dropped? It was once an edgy
and cool way to describe, like, hey, we're dropping an album,
we're dropping a new podcast, we're dropping a new whatever.
(17:42):
They're saying just drop using the word dropped. Okay, so
that's one that they don't want to use in anymore.
How about this one? I y k, y k, you
know what that means? If you know, you know, oh
heighty knows you're cooler than I thought. It's internet slang.
But they're saying that it's time to let us go. Yeah,
well one more, sorry, not sorry.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I say that one.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
You do say that one?
Speaker 3 (18:05):
I do say.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
That's why we're only doing one more because I'm gonna
beg and plea. According to this, would you stop?
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Sorry?
Speaker 5 (18:12):
Not sorry?
Speaker 1 (18:13):
See I knew she was gonna do it the least.

Time Now for the quote of the day, It comes
your way, courtesy of Radiosavings dot com. The quote is
from Judith Martin, who says, if you can't be kind,
at least be vague. I like that. That's good. I
can see Heidi say that it's a good quote. It's
not anonymous, so you can't steal it. Well, we could
just scratch your name on right years over it though.
(19:07):
That is your quote of the day, It comes your way.
Curtesy of Radio Savings dot com. Hey, this portion of

(19:51):
to wrap things up around here with good news, and
I think this is good news. It comes your way
courtesy of Genesis gold Ira dot com. And I think
this is kind of a cool story. A thermal drone
helps rescue an injured dog that had been missing for
a week. How cool is that? So this dog not
Chelsea Charlie. I'm sorry? Why did I say? Chelsea? Charlie
(20:12):
had been reunited now with his owners after going missing
for about a week at Crystal Lake, Illinois. The emotional
rescue was made possible by advanced thermal drone technology and
the teamwork of compassionate experts. Did you know this was
even a thing?
Speaker 3 (20:27):
I did not.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Charlie disappeared in a foggy Monday, leaving his owners Kate
and David devastated. Despite days of searching, they could not
locate there for a little friend. Desperate for help, they
reached out to Cat Cavanaugh from Dog Gone Pet Recovery.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
That's a cute name, that is very cute.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
It's an animal rescue group specializing and locating missing pets. Cavanaugh,
certified drone pilot, collaborated with Mike from Smith Air Smith
Care something like that, a drone flying photography company. They
searched using the area a use this equipment rather search
the area using thermal imaging, so that way you know
the ground is cold, but they can see a dog's
(21:06):
body heath and it's breakthrough technology and this is working really,
really well. So they've got a video of them finding
the dog and the video of them reuniting the family,
and that has posted online if you would like to
see it. But this cutting edge technology and the efforts
of the Kavanaughs have helped bring this dog and this
Smith airplace bring this dog back to the owners who missed.
(21:28):
Love that dearly.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
It's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
I think that's really cool. Time saying good Bye Heide,

Now Surveys and studies and such brought to you by
Jascasemedical dot Com. Movies are getting deadlier, Heidi. I'm not
talking about the violence. I'm referring to the dialogue. Researchers
analyzed one hundred and sixty thousand English language films. They
found that characters are talking about murder and killing more
frequently than ever before.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Researchers from the University of Maryla, University of Pennsylvania, and
Ohio State examined movie subtitles between nineteen seventy and twenty twenty.
They found it found they didn't flound it. They found
an upward trajectory in this type of dialogue. Seven percent
of all movies analyzes contained what they call murderous verbs
in their dialogue, but it was not limited to obvious
(02:20):
genres like action or thrillers. Research says, I can't talk
to it. Research says no. It says the casual discussion
of lethal violence has become normal in all types of movies,
even in like lovey movies. So they say that there's
like an issue. Apparently the view the world we view
the world is more dangerous and threatening because apparently, according
(02:43):
to movies.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
It really is.

did you know that? In mid twenty thirteen, an earthquake
proof church was constructed in christ Church, New Zealand, using
mainly cardboard as a primary building material. They constructed it
from ninety eight giant cardboard tubes coded in multiple layers
of waterproof polyurethane. The cardboard cathedral costs six million dollars
(03:42):
to build. It's designed to last for about fifty years.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Okay, so holy cow, that's a big investment for.

to her Sparkler. The Unstoppable actress is keeping the eight
point five carrot natural green diamond engagement ring she got

the time, where you know, people have the big question
when you break up, do you keep the ring? Does
he get the ring? And does it matter if you
were engaged or if you're married. So anyway they have
the answer to theirs right there. And Scarlett Johansson will

Now your scoop of the day comes your way. Courtesy
of jscasemedical dot com. Oh my goodness, this sounds like
something that would come out of a Dear John letter. Okay,
twenty five percent of adults have used a coupon on
a first date.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
I have no problems with the coop.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
So I was just gonna ask, kidie, what would you
think if we showed up for our first date and
I'd be like, let's dig through the coupons?
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Would you like I would not have a problem with that.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
What would you like? Would you like the buscus engravy?
Would you like flapjacks? You got two choices?
Speaker 6 (05:56):
Well, I think that type of a coupon might not
be a good thing. But if it's it's like saved
ten bucks on your fifty dollars bill, I'd be like,
that is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
And apparently in my fake date we had breakfast. I
don't know why I thought that. All right, moving right along, Yeah,
twenty five percent of adults have used a coupon on
a first date.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
I have no problem.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
So if you did that, you are not the only one.
It's the good news, and it is the food mashup
that no one else has been waiting for. I'm sure
of it. Crispy Cream has announced a collaboration with pop Tarts.
They're going to introduce three new zany options to the
donut chained shells for a limited time. Each new donut
in the Crazy Good line reflects a favorite pop Tart flavor.
(06:39):
It is a frosted strawberry dipped in shortbread icing and
stuff with strawberry filling. I just don't think this.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Sounds I kind of just like the regular glaze.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Yeah, what else do they have on here? Pieces of
strawberry pop tart on top of it. Next is a
frosted chocolate fudge donut with chocolate and brownie batter, butter
cream and crushed frosted chocolate he fudge pop tarts on
top of that one, and the third is a brown
sugar cinnamon donut topped with a buttercream flavor. Brown sugar
cinnamon cream cheese covered with frosted cinnamon roll pop tarts.
(07:12):
So that just sounds like sounds like a lot, but
it sounds like maybe everybody else is excited for it,
but that is still pop Tarts.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
But yeah, that sounds sounds like a lot of sugar.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Time now for dear letters. All right, I got a
Dear John letter. This might be the quickest Dear John
letter a response ever. He he hasn't seen it yet.
We'll see. We'll see what she says. Here we go,
Dear John. I have a rather high maintenance friend, and
(08:19):
I am a bit of an overthinker. But I think
I might have a problem. I called my friend to
check in. He ignored the call and texted, I'll call
you back in two minutes. That is not unusual, but
it's weird that he never called back. Now that on
its own would be fine. But an hour later he
posted on Facebook, the devil keeps trying to drag me down,
So pray for me because I won't let satan win.
(08:42):
So the question is this? Am I the satan he's
referring to? Or do you think he was talking about
something else? Should I ask him? Should I unfriend him?
Should I pray for him? I'm at a loss on
how to react to this. But if I tell him
I'm worried about him and he's talking about me and
I am the problem, that's not going to go well.
But if I don't think if I don't say anything,
(09:02):
he might think I don't care. Help. Signed very confused,
I added the name very confused. Wow, So what is
your first thing thought when you see this? Heidi?
Speaker 6 (09:13):
I think that they're going through something very serious and
you should be comforting your friend. Unless you know of
something that you did.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
There you go.
Speaker 6 (09:24):
If you've got a guilty conscience, then that's a different story.
Now you need to reach out to them and apologize.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
If there's something, but there's nothing.
Speaker 6 (09:31):
If you're in the you know, if you have no clue,
well you did, then it's clearly something that your friend
is struggling with then you need to be there for it.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Well, and here's the thing. I think sometimes we internalize
things too much, because I've actually been present where somebody
will make a comment that's a funny comment, everybody chuckles,
and then somebody else doesn't chuckle, and I'm like, everything okay,
and You're like, well, I thought that was rude that
he was talking about me that way. I'm like, he
wasn't talking about you. What are you talking about? We
just had that happen on New Year's Eve. We had
(10:01):
this discussion. We had some friends on New Year's Eve
that we talked to and this would have been I
don't know, years ago. They were at our house for
New Year's Eve and our son at the time, he's
like twenty eight now, but back then he was like fifteen,
and he came downstairs and he delivered a line from
the movie Ferrispielder's Day Off. He goes, you're still here,
go home? You know that that whole like if you
(10:22):
watch that scene. Our son had that memorized. He came
down it was like two in the morning and he
said that, and the friend felt we all chuckled. Everybody
that knew what was going on.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Last he was embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
She was so embarrassed and on the way home her
husband because she was like, boy, it was so sad,
and I hope everything's okay. And I thought that was
weird that Troy said that. He's like, that's a line
from me from a movie, and she didn't know that,
but she took that personally. And I think that's what's
going on right here. When this guy post, and I
don't know if it's a guy or lady whatever the friend.
When the friend posted the devil keeps trying to drag
(10:54):
me down. So pray for me because I won't let
say and win. I think there's like a point zero
five percent chance that you are the satan in this
question that you're asking unless.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
You less, you know what you did and you've got
a guilty conscience for a reason.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Yeah, so unless you did something and you're calling and
taunting and picking on them, But it doesn't sound like
it from the tone of your letter. It doesn't sound
like you would do that.
Speaker 6 (11:15):
And I don't think if he was really mad at you,
I don't think you would have responded. I'll call you
back in two minutes. Yeah, clearly something has.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Happened, and I'll be after that.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
He has some he or she has some major thing
going on in their life. That's why they didn't get
back to you right away. And you can be a
helping hand right now. You can reach out and say, hey,
if there's something that I can help with, let me know.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
You know, are you okay?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Are you okay?
Speaker 6 (11:37):
I'm your friend, I'm here for you. And if it
is something that you did that you're not aware of,
You're going to want to have that dialogue anyway, if
you value this friendship.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
If there's either way you need to reach out.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
There something I can do to help? Let me know
is it something I did? And I sure hope not.
I want to make sure like there's a way to
do this. It doesn't have to be weird, but I
think And if you.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
Send us this letter on a Monday and waited until
Thursday for our advice, it may be too late.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Again, this is kind of an odd thing, but appreciate
the letter. Hey, if you would like to chime in
with advice, you could do that at Facebook dot com,
slash John and Heidishow And I want to remind you
that we always keep the letters anonymous. We do that
for a reason because there are times where people are
talking about things that are you know, sensitive and whatever.
So if you ever want to submit a Dear John letter,
(12:23):
you can submit them. And there are times that I'll
even have people where they'll change a couple of the details,
you know, just to make sure that the person doesn't
know they're talking about them. So if you want to
do that, you can do that. And if you want
to do it where we don't even know who it's from,
you can submit that at the bottom of the page
at John and Heidishow dot com. It just shows up.
I don't even see your email address. If you want
to put that injury, you can, but you can keep

Fun fact for you, Heidi, Yoda was almost played by
a monkey, so instead of having the puppet it was
it frank Oz that voiced Yoda. I don't know it
was one of the people think it was, but instead
of that character, they almost had a monkey play Yoda.
While fun fact for you a Heidi to typing keyboards
used to be arranged alphabetically, so yeah, instead of the
(13:49):
qwe r t y keyboards, they used to be alphabetical.

Now some weird news brought to you by Weird Gift
of the Day dot com. This actually kind of makes
me mad. A man who cut himself shaving has been
awarded two and fifty dollars compensation. He sued the Razor Company.
Nick Silverthorne of London bought a supermarket brand razor from
a store. According to him, when he used it for
the first time, it cut both of his cheeks. He
(16:25):
claimed that one of the razor blades was detached and
the razor was faulty. Incredibly, he was awarded an out
of court settlement against this place and fifty dollars.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
The razor was faulty, that's a different story.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
He says. His injury was no ordinary shaving cut. It
sliced my skin and caused him to believe over twenty minutes.
The incident left him with a scar on his cheek,
and then the trauma of being cut led him to
have nightmares for months afterwards. Here's the thing I would say,
that was my question because I'm saying at a certain
point like, oh man, i just cut my right cheek
(16:59):
off the sink, Well, let's shave the left cheek, Like, no,
don't do it that way. That's just weird. Weird news
brought to you by Weird Gift of the Day dot Com.
Time now for the list brought to you by Jascasemedical
dot Com Words and Phrases band for twenty twenty five.
We posted the whole list yesterday and we're gonna go
(17:21):
through and do a few more era. Taylor Swift might
be the one to blame for that because of her
ERA tour. Apparently era was overused in twenty twenty four,
and they're saying, do not use it in twenty twenty five.
How about the word dropped? It was once an edgy
and cool way to describe, like, hey, we're dropping an album,
we're dropping a new podcast, we're dropping a new whatever.
(17:42):
They're saying just drop using the word dropped. Okay, so
that's one that they don't want to use in anymore.
How about this one? I y k, y k, you
know what that means? If you know, you know, oh
heighty knows you're cooler than I thought. It's internet slang.
But they're saying that it's time to let us go. Yeah,
well one more, sorry, not sorry.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I say that one.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
You do say that one?
Speaker 3 (18:05):
I do say.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
That's why we're only doing one more because I'm gonna
beg and plea. According to this, would you stop?
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Sorry?
Speaker 5 (18:12):

(19:51):
to wrap things up around here with good news, and
I think this is good news. It comes your way
courtesy of Genesis gold Ira dot com. And I think
this is kind of a cool story. A thermal drone
helps rescue an injured dog that had been missing for
a week. How cool is that? So this dog not
Chelsea Charlie. I'm sorry? Why did I say? Chelsea? Charlie
(20:12):
had been reunited now with his owners after going missing
for about a week at Crystal Lake, Illinois. The emotional
rescue was made possible by advanced thermal drone technology and
the teamwork of compassionate experts. Did you know this was
even a thing?
Speaker 3 (20:27):
I did not.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Charlie disappeared in a foggy Monday, leaving his owners Kate
and David devastated. Despite days of searching, they could not
locate there for a little friend. Desperate for help, they
reached out to Cat Cavanaugh from Dog Gone Pet Recovery.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
That's a cute name, that is very cute.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
It's an animal rescue group specializing and locating missing pets. Cavanaugh,
certified drone pilot, collaborated with Mike from Smith Air Smith
Care something like that, a drone flying photography company. They
searched using the area a use this equipment rather search
the area using thermal imaging, so that way you know
the ground is cold, but they can see a dog's
(21:06):
body heath and it's breakthrough technology and this is working really,
really well. So they've got a video of them finding
the dog and the video of them reuniting the family,
and that has posted online if you would like to
see it. But this cutting edge technology and the efforts
of the Kavanaughs have helped bring this dog and this
Smith airplace bring this dog back to the owners who missed.
(21:28):
Love that dearly.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
It's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
