Rated R safety show. Okay, so there you go. A lot of stuff going on inside of the lower end of the news. Yeah, by the way, thanks for everybody who blew up the box there or Yeah, a lot of craziness going on for show as we are talking. Anyways, that is 10 minutes past the top of the hour.

It attended the hop 101 class to be able to know what the hell is going on there. We do talk a little bit about everything, just in case you did not know. So there you go. That's what's going on. Let's continue going down. What is going on with the hit list right now? As we do, move forward anyways. As of Wednesday, more than 113 million covid vaccine have been administered nationwide. Over 39.9 million Americans are now fully vaccinated, while others over Let's see while over let's see. About 73.6 million people have received at least windows, according to the C. D. C, the total number of cumulative cases, and the U. S is slightly over 29.3 million, with more than 534,000 deaths so far. So there you go. That is what's going on inside of the U. S. Of A when it comes to the vaccination and the covid related incidents. So let's continue talking. The trial for former Minneapolis cop Derek Cheap grouped challenging hit a snag on Wednesday as two jurors was dismissed from the case, uh, have been. District Judge Peter Cahill questioned the seven jurors who had been seated. Whether the news of a $27 million settlement of a civil wrongful death lawsuit paid to George Floyd's family would impact their opinion on the case. One juror responded. That would impact it a lot, while the other explained that kind of already had swayed the person. Two of the seven they had already heard about three of the others said that it would not change their opinion in the case. Meanwhile, Derek's lawyer argued that the news would would be a hefty payout, would be, you know, of course, taint the jury. So there you go. I mean some things to think about for sure. I mean, if you do hear that somebody did win a $27 million lawsuit in a wrongful death thing, even before you probably set an opinion on it, you're probably going to have some questions just throwing that out there. I mean, I think that that's just some a rough guesstimate. I mean, I don't think I'm bringing anything to you that you probably have not already determined. I mean, round of applause for sure for that one. But just think about it for a moment. Just one of those things. Anyways. Let's continue talking about the world of Florida, Florida, Florida Here we go real quick. A Florida mother who received one dose of the coronavirus vaccine while pregnant has passed on the antibodies to her newborn. The child is believed to be the first to be born with Covid 19 antibodies, according to multiple outlets. The mother was 36 weeks pregnant when she was administered the first dose of the Moderna vaccine. Three weeks later, after the child was born, the body of the baby's cord was tested to see if the antibodies and the mother passed to the baby, which is something that occurs with other vaccines. The test came back positive for covid 19 antibodies. While the development is good news in the fight against coronavirus, researchers warned that the that the newborns are still at risk for infection from the virus due to certain factors such as unknown length of protection. So there you go. Hold on real quick, cause I'm slightly confused. I thought we had had the conversation and talked about this, that where we had already had the discussion about that you were not supposed to. And I'm saying not to have the actual vaccine if you were pregnant. I mean, you can't tell me if I'm wrong. I mean, it's not the first time I will be wrong, and it won't be the last. But I thought that that was definitely part of the combo as we were doing it. I mean, you can tell me, and then we can go from there. I mean, a lot of stuff comes to mind. When I started thinking about it. Greater safety show sarcastic. Never. Okay, so I got a kind of a mix here. Uh, there's a kind of a couple of different things I want to try, so I don't know if I should try it in this fashion, I can tell you, let's let's do something kind of strange here just for half a second now that we don't do anything strange at any other point inside of this world. But let's a lot of people have been enjoying John Smalls and a lot of the stuff that he's been doing. So let's try this out for a second. Tell me what you think, and then we'll do it this way and then I will read to you what I have, and then you tell me which one you like, and then we can make a determination going forward on how things will be done. So take a listen to this real quick and let's go from there. Here's your market beat minute for Thursday, March 18th 2021. The Dow Jones Industrial and the S and P 500 rose to record highs and yields on longer maturity. US. Debt fell from more than one year highs after the Federal Reserve continued to project near zero interest rates at least through 2023 despite rising inflation concerns earlier in the session. the benchmark rate jumped to 1.689% hitting a level unseen since late January 2020. The NASDAQ turned positive as well after the Fed comments. Shaking off earlier losses, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell reiterated that the central bank wants to see inflation moderately above 2% and said the recent move higher in yields wasn't disorderly. The Fed also upgraded its outlook for unemployment and inflation in the U. S over the next several years. The rally may continue into Thursday trading as futures contracts tied to the major US stock indices rose in the overnight session Wednesday evening, you can get the inside track at market beat minute dot com. Safety never sounded so terrible. Rated R safety show. So what do you think? Do you like the John small versions of the stocks? I mean, we can go that way. I mean, I have no problem. I have no problem having him do it. I mean, he sounds quite, but when he's doing it. Stock moved higher on Wednesday as the Dow lifted 189 points in the Dow and the NASDAQ rose about 53 points in the S and P 500 gained about 11. The Federal Reserve announced that they believed that the inflation is still below the 2% mark. The group also said that interest rates are expected to remain at zero throughout most of 2023 which he already discussed, which is so fantastic. The 10 year Treasury bond yield closed at 1.657% after backing down from the intraday high of 1.689%. And the entered a mark of the highest of the benchmark that had been seen in 14 years. So there you go. So I don't know. I have to tell you, I like the smallest version. Yeah, you're killing me, Smalls. You got it? Yeah. So, anyways, maybe we'll start going that angle. You tell me if you like it. If you don't like it, that's perfectly fine, too. I don't take personal offense. City of this stuff. I mean, John might take some offense to it, but it's okay. I love John. He does a great show on radio big dot FM. Just in case, Um, if you haven't hung out and taking a listen to what the hell he has going on. You should probably come and hang out with him and his wife. Do afternoon drive there and it's quite a fantastic show. They do interviews. They do, you know, they give you some stuff that's going on throughout the day. I mean, it's all kinds of fun with John and Heidi, just in case anyways, continue talking. A suspect was arrested on Tuesday night for the shooting death of eight people at three massage parlors across Atlanta. Robert Aaron Long, 21 of Woodstock, Georgia, was captured about 150 miles south of Atlanta after he opened fire out of five people shortly before five PM at Young Asian Massage and Cherokee County. Less than an hour later, four people were killed in a shooting at two spots in Atlanta. Authorities believe that the that longest suspect in all the shootings long took full responsibility for a string of shootings, telling the authorities on Wednesday that he targeted in the locations because he saw them as an outlet for him to sit com sexual addiction and temptation. So hold on real quick, my friend, you're telling me because you have some issues related to ejaculation all of a sudden you're gonna take it out on some other people. I mean, it's beyond ridiculous to even make the comment seriously. I don't even even know how the hell you could actually justify that. Oh, because of my sexual problem. This particular location could be a problem like really? So That would almost seem like if you say anyone who's a sexual being could potentially be an issue for you, too. Yeah, I think about that one. What did he just say? We have safety FM Don't always agree with the viewpoints of our hosts and guests. Now back to real safety. Talk on Safety FM. Okay, let's continue talking. The law firm hired by the New York State Assembly to probe Governor Andrew Cuomo has ties to Chief Judge Janet D. Ferry, which, but that's his potential conflict of interest. According to attorney for one of Cuomo's accusers judged, if Larry, who has been appointed as a disgraced governor, is married to Dennis Glacier, who spent more than 30 years as a partner as Davis Polk and Wardwell board, well, excuse me, the firm that was selected for by the Assembly, we already know that they're the extent which the governor Cuomo has surrounded himself with people in the executive chamber who enabled his behavior and has spent evidence of sexual harassment under the rug. If there is even a hint of political influence in the impeachment investigation, it will take the entire proceeding, one of the victims attorney said. But the Assembly claims that Davis Polk was thoroughly vetted in the attorney retained are extremely well qualified. Cuomo stands accused by seven women of sexual harassment and groping that he has denied the claims for. So hold on, here's the thing, and I mean, let's talk about it real quick. I will tell you I have interacted, um, in some court proceedings previously because, you know, that's as part of the game. But it was interesting because there was a organization here in that is a pretty large transportation company that we were having some interactions with. We'll put it to you that way. But they had tie ins with almost every major law firm inside of the city that it was almost virtually impossible to have anybody do any kind of proceedings. So I don't think there's anything slightly different there than what Kwame is doing with some of them. I mean, it's something to think about. Of course, now I'm not losing it this morning, just in case. 22 minutes past the top of the hour. We're just having fun. It's Thursday. You should be excited that it's Thursday. Why? Because it is. It is the fourth day of the work week, depending on how you take a look at it, and you should be excited every day. I mean, how boring would be if we were just sitting here going, Let's have a little Chuck man Anyways, let's continue talking. A woman in the Netherlands have received a tattoo remotely by an artist more than 300 miles away in the U. K. Yep, you did hear me. The stunt was part of the marketing campaign organized by T Mobile Netherlands, and London based technologists No Al Drew to demonstrate the power of five G tattoo artist West Thomas was was contracted to operate the robot appendage with the tattoo needle attached to the ink up to the upper form arm of a Dutch actress. Studying French in the five G Tattoo may have been the world's first, but it also is an authentic use of cutting edge technology combined with ancient art to tell a very human story, Drew told PC magazine. Despite the amazing achievement, drew stress that he does not consider robotic tattooing to become the norm anytime soon or possibly ever. So hold on. Because I have to ask the question because there are some tattoo artists that I would love love to get tattoos from. I do have quite a few, just in case you did not know, Um, and I will tell you I would do the robotic gig if they were willing to do it just to get a tattoo for him. That way I don't have the number one show up in person and Number two, we could just do it remotely. How awesome is that? That's something I think about. You are listening to a radio. God, What? This has to be an error. That host is not a radio god. Anyway, this is the rated R safety show on safety F firm. Okay, a New York man has been convicted of trafficking sharks here. I'm not joking here, and by the way, I have to stop saying names of people because we keep on making famous or dumb people famous or stupid, people famous, however, you want to take a look at it. So let's continue. So this gentleman who kept the sharks and above the ground pool in his backyard pled guilty to illegal commercializing on fish, shell, fish and wildlife with the intent to sell seven sand sand bar sharks. He was fined $5000. What a deal There. Authorities discovered the illegal operation during the traffic stop, which was when officers found five undersized sharks in a large tank in the back of his truck. He admitted that he was transporting the animals from New York with the intent to sell them, and also that he was keeping them at his home. What the hell, dude? Was it like the truth serum? All of a sudden, when officers executed the search warrant at the home, they found seven live sharks in the backyard pool. There also found two dead leopard sharks, one dead hammerhead shark and a snout. Small toes sawfish. The sharks have been relocated to the New York Aquarium at Coney Island. What the hell is going on, man? Seriously like what now? Is it a saltwater pool number one and number two. Isn't it cold in New York? Like, how the hell were you maintaining these things? I mean, it's something to think about. I don't know. Mortal Kombat beat down. Okay, let's continue talking real quick. A Wisconsin man is dead after killing two co workers, um, and fleeing from police crashing into a pole and then turning the gun on himself. The shooting, which occurred on Tuesday, happened inside of Roundy's distribution center. And, uh, yeah, I'm gonna oko Milwaukee to I mean, what the hell does that even mean? About 30 miles west of Milwaukee, said Thomas Bennett, secretary of Treasury of treasurer of the General Teamsters Local Union number 200. All three men were in their forties. Authorities have released a few details about the attacks, including the names of the shooters and the victim. The motives have not been revealed, so then again, we start talking about workplace shootings and workplace violence, and this goes back to the conversation that we have all the time about safety and security and hazard matrix. And how do you plan inside of your organization's about having the conversation related to this info right there. I know we talk a lot about Run, hide fight. We've had the discussion several times on this show and on the other show. But how do you go about handling it? How frequently do you have the discussion with your team members with your fellow employees with your management? Because it is a portion of the conversation. Now let's be realistic when you start having the conversation about the run, hide and fight and it's somebody who is internally. If you do end up having that situation occur at your workplace, well, they kind of already know what the hell you're gonna do, because it's something that's being discussed. It becomes a very weird scenario. I remember working at a pretty large organization that likes to repeat the same letter over and over again at least three times, and what they did was I was supposed to analyze. People think about this shit for a moment where I was supposed to analyze that, who would have the highest potential of being a shooter inside of the operation? Sometimes when I say stuff, I wish I was joking, but unfortunately that's not the case, so I am to analyze who I think would be a potential shooter. Really? I mean, next year we're going to find out that somebody was gonna give you a crystal ball, and you're gonna take a guess from there. What did he just say? We have safety FM. Don't always agree with the viewpoints of our hosts and guests. Now back to real safety. Talk on safety FM. Okay. Two teens who allegedly set a man on fire inside of his own home in upstate New York last week are now facing murder charges after the victims here come to his entries on Tuesday. The boys, ages 14 and 16, initially faced charges of first degree assault and second degree arson. After should I say the guy's name after the 53 year old was doused with flammable liquid and intentionally set on fire as he sat in a chair in his apartment, the victim ran out of his apartment on fire for about five minutes after after returning from the corner store. Rochester's police captain, Frank Membreno, told reporters he suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns over 70% of his body. Authorities are still working to determine the motive. I mean, what kind of craziness are we talking about that for pleasure? Because there's nothing else that I can imagine at the moment that a 14 and 16 year old decided that this is something that they're going to do. I mean, there's something to think about. Here we go. Here's Jim proposal. There is such a thing as situational awareness training that is used to assess risk for potential shooters and workplace violence. So there you go. That's coming from a proposal from safety wars talking about what's going on inside of his neck of the woods, anyway. So let's continue talking and let's get into that portion of the show that we call the main story. It's an only 29 minutes after here we go. Here is our main story on the radio safety show. So there you go a lot of stuff, of course, sequencing, talking, moving, grooving and going around all that fun stuff that we normally tend to do as we are talking about the world of safety. So let's talk about it because it is that portion where we start talking about things that we consider a major or important story that we need to talk about with the grip. Mm. So let's do this. Is it when to cheat or cheat? To win? So let's talk about the possibilities of numbers of things that this could qualify under that it could qualify for, as we do talk about it now, I want you to think about those lovely boards that organizations have of. We have went this many days without an incident inside of our organization. I mean, that's fine. If you want to do that, that's your You have to start off somewhere. But how common is it to see these boards? But we turn around and we tell people in our organization, you know, intent, nudge, nudge of don't report an accident because we're going to hit this great, lovely thing if we make it today 50 or day, 100 or one year where we might be bone ist or we might be incentivized with a barbecue. Or we might get this or that or the other because we have not had a workplace injury below a first aid in X amount of days. Now, the other portion, too, is when you start thinking about this is when you have incidents and accidents and so on some of these things, depending on how your shut up as an organization, can lower your insurance rates, your workers comp rates. It could also even potentially help you with actually being able to acquire contracts because of you giving information about things that are going on inside of the York. So if you recommend, encouraged strongly for people to use their personal days off during these incidents, that way it doesn't have to report it as a loss of work. I lost time Incident Is that cheating the system is that taking a look around and doing the things that you know are not technically, you know, pretty cool. They're kind of underhanded. So are you willing to cheat or you're cheating to win? Because we get so hung up. And I did say we because it probably has happened at some point of your career where that number on a board is so important, I will tell you, I hang out on social media and people get so excited about we and my organization have went this amount of days all in the whole company without a single injury. You're telling me. You have 50,000 people inside of your organization and you didn't have a single injury for a year, A year, a year. Come on. That didn't require anything more than first aid a year. I mean, either you're selling a bad bill of goods or somebody smoking. In token, if you know what I'm saying there because there's no way that I'm going to buy it now. Don't get me wrong. I want to believe in everyone. But there's certain things that you have to kind of take with a grain of salt. My friends think about it for a moment. Do you think you could have that many employees, team members, part of a group with no injuries during that particular amount of time? Think about it for a moment. Think about social interactions that you have with people. So imagine whatever you want, you with a crowd of people, and we'll use the 50,000 number here and tell me that if you hung out with them for a day, there would not be a single incident. So now you're telling me that for over a year that was the same case. Come on, I don't think it's real. I mean, it's good to have a goal. A big, hairy, audacious go a B hag. But let's be realistic, too. Don't lie about it. Don't hold the people down. And, of course, is there the level of fear that comes about that that person that might have potentially been injured doesn't want to say anything because they don't want to be the person or that person. It's a weird thing. I am a firm believer that those boards are a disservice to you more than they are a service. And the difference between the C suite to the line level on how that conversation occurs is super important. Because if you're here of we're gonna hit our goal, we're gonna hit our goal. We're gonna hit our goal in the C suite and inside of the actual line, level it so we can't say anything. Here's the important part. Here is where we take place if you take a look at that line and you kind of went through that sequence the most important person in that line as that communication goes back and forth, You ready for this is the middle management. They're all important people, But the communication that occurs from the top to the bottom is that middle manager in between. Think about it. They play such a key role inside of how that communication occurs. So where is the cheating to win or the winning? Too cheap occurring? Is it in the C suite? Is it in the line level or is it the middle management? But then again, what the hell do I know? Just the guy behind a microphone. What did he just say? We have safety FM.

This is Jackson, WY and Franklin Moody, allowing us to play this one on the radar safety show. This song is available on iTunes and Spotify. If you so desire to want to download it or even screaming little summer nights for you, I mean, I have to tell you it's summer year around here where I'm located. Maybe we should do a show from the outside one day. I think you might like that. Maybe we should do a set up on the beach, happen to us. I could pull that off. Might be a little windy, but it's manageable and doable. Uh, so there you go. That's what's going on. I don't Okay, some some music there. I hope you're enjoying it and having a grand time this 40 minutes past the top of the hour as you and I are hanging out together anyway. So let's take a look at what Jim Balza had to say. So are those zero accident signs leading indicators of a toxic work environment and dishonest management. So here's the thing. And I know that what happened sometimes is that we just don't know any better. And we all start off in a place I mean, and let's just be kind of realistic about it, and I get very passionate about some of the portions of conversation that I do have. But here's the thing. We all start off in a scenario that makes sense to us when we start going down this lovely journey, and I will tell you it is normally with some newer safety professionals, and I'm from what I can see that go through this because this is what they've been taught and how it works with any paradigm shift, you're never going to shift paradigms until you find something that's better. And they're really thinking. And I will say that even if I fell under this category for a period of time, where I believe that that was a good method to have a discussion with people, because it's not every day that the safety person normally gets to interact with the operation. So these are good measurement tools. Oh, hey, everybody is doing fantastic. But when you start taking a look of the person doesn't want to be the reporter. If something goes wrong, they don't want to admit it becomes a different part of the conversation. I don't think that everything at the beginning is done with malice when it comes to it. I really think that people are trying to make the area better, but not putting into consideration everything else that comes with it and don't get me wrong. There are people out there who gamify the system, and they understand that depending on where they actually hang out. It could be entirely different until there you go. Anyways, let's talk a little bit about some other things going on inside of the world of the news and all that kind of fun stuff. Because it is Ali is important as we do go from there. Anyways, let's talk about some fail mail. The author of the new book, published by the come over to the 50th anniversary of the email message, calls it a curse. Cal Newport's book called A World Without Email, reimagining the work in an age of communication overload. After setting the social effects of email for several years, the Georgetown University computer science professor says It's just clashes with the found fundamental human wiring to have a nonstop of piling up of communication that we can't keep up with. According to him. No matter how much we tell ourselves, it's okay, we don't have to answer the email right away. There's a deeper part of our brain that's compelled to do so, and that makes us miserable because of the we are overwhelmed and urged to answer all the emails that come in. He he calls the torture cycle by which the flood of incoming email loads up to the work because of the back workload. Present us with responding to those emails as probably as we feel as we should, while also keeping us from doing our work, which of course, leads to us doing work more normal hours. Then you know the conventional side, which leads to a total burnout. What can we do? What can be done about? This new board suggested telling colleagues that you're available to respond to emails between two and 3 p.m. On Tuesdays and Thursdays and not to expect to hear back from you outside of those hours. Well, I think that, you know, I don't know how realistic that's going to be. And, well, at least we'll miss the The inevitable email from my boss invited me to a very important meeting with HR. Emails is 50 years old, and I didn't even know I didn't even send a congrats email. That's something else to think about. Remember the good old days when only emails you got weird jokes from your friends and you were compelled to print them out on your dot matrix computer, Help me or help me here as we talk about this, or am I just old? I mean, that's something else to think about as we do. Talk about it. But think about it for a second. How often do you get emails that you feel like you need to respond to right away? Now, I will tell you, maybe I shouldn't tell you that because I'm getting some trouble. But the thing about it is I interact with the very person that's very close with me. See what I did there, Um, who responds to an email at the moment that they get it, and that's just the way that she's wired. But I think it's kind of weird. I could go a few hours without responding, depending on the severity, but I do check now. The interesting part about the whole thing is that, as I go about doing this is that I don't love emails. If you normally interact with me, I will tell you can get a hold of me a lot quicker. Be attacks, because I'll glance at an email, and if the subject matter of the line does not catch my attention, I'm probably not responding right away. I know there's the insight about the whole thing. Anyways, Read between the wines. If you wanted to impress guests with expensive wine but can't afford you, lie to them about the price of the cheap stuff. A new study out of Switzerland founded The deep down already know, I kind of knew this. I mean, let's talk about it. The more the more the wine, uh, the wine cost, the better the wine taste. According to some, the researchers tasted volunteer of tested volunteers with three Italian red wines, ranging from price of $11 from probably about, let's see, $11 to about $70 or €8 to €50. But the prices were incorrectly marked when the cheapest wine given was falsely high pricing. It was judged as the most pleasant of the three. The researchers say that deceptive up pricing of low pricing wine significantly influenced the rating of pleasure nous. So there you go. That's the only true someone else paid for it. Did you ever notice that you buy the cheapest of wine that's available? Maybe the box stuff? Who the hell knows? Uh, you may have some money, but, you know, your friends will pay for it in the morning, that's for sure. And then, for me, it's pretty easy to tell the difference between a $200 or $20 wine. It's about 100 and 80 bucks. That's the difference. I don't drink wine. Uh, just by choice. If you really want to have me on the hook, the hook for me is tequila, and I'm not joking. That is not a joke. My beverage of choice, as we do hang out, will be tequila. And I don't drink that often. It has to be a special occasion or a special tequila. It's one or the other. That's the way that it gets me rolling in. Bowling. You are listening to a radio. God. What? This has to be an error. That host is not a radio god. Anyway, this is the rated R safety show on safety F firm. Okay, so let's talk about it real quick in something to talk about. This is not a joke. In June, a new kind of library will open up in London, Ontario. Uh, a thing, a thing library. The idea is that you can borrow items that you need to use rather than having to purchase them. The library cell service will provide Hobbyist Baker's amateur remodelers crowdsource tools, an effort to reduce waste and save people money. The London thing library will run a membership model where patrons can pay monthly fees to access. Library inventory will also focus on teaching people new skills like now, how to dehydrate their own food or make repairs through their workshops. At this point, the enterprise is asking for donations to build up the inventory. Among the items requesting our bike repair tools. A pressure washer, camping cheers, cookie decorating supplies. I wonder if they have books. How many tools will be dropped off there because my husband never gets around to using them. That's when I'm sure that some wipes will say out there and just a hunch. But I bet that the local rent all place has a bit of a problem with this. Is there such a thing as a rental place? I don't even know anymore, but something to think about for sure. But I mean, it's an interesting, uh, interesting aspect. Anyways, there you go. Did you know, let's talk about some did you know, real quick cause we haven't talked about it in a little bit. A fundraiser to help pay off Prince Harry and Meghan Markle is a $19 million Los Angeles mansion has been shut down. A California woman set up Harry and Meghan $5 donation to buy home Go Fund me. A few days after the Duke and Duchess Explosive tell all to Oprah was aired, she was seeking donation of $5 to reach $10 million during the Oprah Trat. Harry revealed that he had been that he had been cut off financially by the royal family and said that he was forced to use his inheritance from his late mother, Princess Diana, which was estimated to be about $18 million to go fund me. Page disappeared from the site after appearing having to, uh, attracted about $140 in donations, not 1000 $140 in donations, just in case. Anyway, I was still amazed on the amount of people that have been bothered by that interview, just something to think about. I mean, I will tell you this. I mean, if you're not familiar with it, I'll just share it for the sake of sharing. But uh, that has only CBS exited the hiatus of the talk as it conducts reviews of related to the recent heated exchange between Sharon Osborne and Sheryl Underwood. But Osborne said that she may not be wanted back or want to return. She admits she got too personal with co presenter Sheryl Underwood and fears that the argument has escalated too far for them to come back. The talk has been taken off the air in his hiatus and has been extended until next week. Osborne voiced her support for Piers Morgan after his controversial comments on Megan Markel, claiming that he had the right to express his own opinion. And here's the gig. I think it's weird on how people get in regards to people expressing what they feel now. If you're listening to an opinion show because Good Morning Britain is definitely an opinion show, is it really even such a thing as real new shows anymore? But it is. An opinion shows that the person gave his opinion, not saying that it was right not saying that it was wrong. But people that watch that show watch for Pierre smugglers opinion, same thing for the people who watched the talk. By the way, has anybody came out with a show called, uh, something similar to the talk like safety or something like that? Because, like, don't they have? Somebody already has something like the view. And then somebody came out with something out of the word safety for the view, you know, some original trademarking their stuff. Uh huh. Did I say that one out loud? What did he just say? We don't always agree with the viewpoints of our hosts and guests back to real safety. Talk on Safety FM. Let's continue talking, talking, talking, talking, talking some more about things that are going on inside of the world. We are totally going to bypass today the whole swamp, because I just don't want to talk about it anyways. No window, No winner for Tuesday night's make a million drawing. Friday's drawing will be for 100 and $5 million jackpot or a $71.1 million cash payout. So there you go. There's something's going on inside of the world. Here you go. Kobe Bryant's family wants to lock down the rights to Mamba in Mombasa to According to an application filed by the U. S. Patent and Trademark Office. Uh, an attorney for the family filed an application this week noting the trademark would be used for clothing such as shirts, pants, shorts, dress jackets and etcetera, working out clothes such as sweatbands, armbands and footwear. Kobe's estate, filed for several trademarks, is the tragic death of him and his daughter, Gianna, including Mamba Sports Academy. Mamacita are Bamba, Sita, Lady Bambas, Little Bambas and more. So there you go. Uh, let's see The Piers Morgan thing is a breakfast news show like Good Morning America, which let's be realistic, The Good Morning America show. Thanks, Rich Nichols. By the way, Um, the Good Morning America show is an opinion show. I mean, let's I mean and I don't know how far back we want to go with this. I mean, we can go even back to the days of Matt Lauer. And when he even having the conversation with Tom Cruise that made it all over the place where you know, everything was being blown out of regards of what Tom Cruise was saying at the time, but just something to think about a lot of these shows that are new centric shows our opinion shows, huh? I wonder how that idea works. So there you go, some stuff to think about. I mean, there's a lot that comes about from them. I mean, I'm not going to justify and say that they're all good or they're all bad. Wait there. Let's just be realistic. The Peter Jennings and the Walter Cronkite's of the World in regards of how the news was given that was not one sided or the majority of how it was presented was not one sided leaning left leaning, right, leaning where the hell you want to lean? It was just straight news on how the way and that's the way that it was. There's no news channel like that anymore. There's always an agenda. We know that we might not want to acknowledge it. I mean the the automatic portion on when you tell somebody. I listened to news on Fox. What is it associated with? If I tell you, I listen to news on MSNBC, what is it associated with? And that's the thing that comes about. I wish I could say otherwise. This is why, when we talk about this platform here. Well, you and I are hanging out today. I try to make sure that all of our hosts and presenters have their own spiel. No agenda. We're not leaning one way. You don't have to agree with what I have to say. That's perfectly fine. I understand that. My rated R safety show, which is really your show, is an opinion show, and there's certain things I don't like, and I'm gonna say it and I don't have an agenda behind it. I'm not sponsored by a very conglomerate that tells me what to say. I give you my opinion and there's certain shit that I don't like, and that's what it's about. And there's certain stuff that you don't like. That's why you keep on coming back. The only way to change things is that you have to stop giving influence of people that allow things to be influenced by others to change, right? Yeah, you heard me there. If a company is paying me big money to say certain things in that way, it becomes forthright, and that's the way that it is. That's an agenda, I will tell you. I have turned down sponsorships for some of our shows because number one I didn't agree with what they had to say, and there was no way I was going to be selling a bag of shit to people, just not what I do. Believe me, if I ever sat here and explain some of the risk and the crazy things that I have done to make sure that we could be successful at Safety FM and some of the risks that I have put out there, you might be amazed. But that's the thing. I want people to have their own opinion. Now Don't get me wrong. There are some shows on safety FM that have large sponsors, and there is even a show on safety FM that when they started, they were not a part of a conglomerate. But now they are. But the host does not lean that way, and the day that they do, there will be a different conversation. But that has not occurred to date. Okay, now let's let's get the time off the off the soapbox. Anyways, let's talk about some other things real quick. Let's talk about something that happened back on this date, so let's talk about what happened on this date. In 2020 President Donald Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau agreed to close the U. S Canada border to a non essential travel to curb the spread of covid. Under the deal, the flow of goods between the two nations would not be affected. That happened a year ago. Today, let's talk about some birthdays that are going on today. Little Papa turns 21. Lily Collins turns 32. Mar Marvin Humes turns 36. Adam Levine Oh, Adam Levine turns 42 today. Dane Cook turned 49 Vanessa Williams turned 58 and Queen Latifah turns 51. Those are all birthdays going on today. Also, if you need some reasons to celebrate today today's national awkward moment day, I think I gave you quite a few of those today. National Biodiesel Day National Lacey Oatmeal Cookie Day, National Sloppy Joe Day, National Supreme Sacrifice Day, National Farm Rescuer Day Absolutely Incredible Kid Day and Goddess of Fertility Day who stay away from that one. My friends. Hold on. That's all other conversation. Uh, so there you go. Some things to think about. Anyways, let me tell you about the most important part of the show that we have to talk about. Let me tell you about the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. They are available at a f s p dot org a f sp dot org, or you can contact them at 1 802 73 talk 1 802 73 Talk or text The word talk to 741741 That's the word. Talk to 741741 They are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If you have any thoughts of suicide or depression, please do not hesitate to contact them because I think it is crucial. And that's my opinion. And I'm sticking to it anyways. If I can give you a couple of things before we end the show now let's get it to you. This way. I'm gonna tell you a couple of things. If you need a random joke for today, I have a lot of hidden talents. The problem is, I can't even find them if you need a phone starter for the day. If you're you're week so far was a song. What would the title. Be hallucinate. Dua, Lipa. There you go. If you need a question for the water cooler, try this one in a survey asking what foods people hated as kids. But like as an adult, this came in at number one. What is it? Asparagus. So there you go. Anyways, you've been listening to the rated R safety show exclusively on safety FM and radio big dot FM. If you want to come up and hang out with us, I will be moving over to radio big dot FM for the rest of the next couple hours as we hang out, do some music, do some other things and talk about what some other things that are going on in the news that we did not cover on this show. Anyways, thank you for always being the best part of safety FM, and that is the listener. Without you, we can't do what we do, by the way, want to reference this real quick? If you do take a listen to our shows and you do listen to the J Allen show, I'm going to tell you something. If you come onto the show and you pitch some stuff and people don't agree with it in the social media comments and they have questions I don't censor and I don't delete. I let people ask what they want and I think that it's your responsibility as the guests to answer, I should be asked to remove or change. You brought it up, so take responsibility. Just a thought. Anyway, If I can leave you with a thought for today, I would like to leave you with this one. Let today be the day you love yourself enough to no longer just dream of a better life. Let it be the day you act upon it. Great thing to say on Sydney's Got Justice League Day. Anyways, I know who you are. You know who I am, Love you mean it and goodbye.
