Forget the corporate bullshit. This is the Rated R Safety Show with your host, Dr. It

13
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,000
doesn't matter who the host is.

14
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:20,840
Oh, you know it. I know it. We all talk about it. It does not matter who the host is. What

15
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,320
always has mattered is who the listeners are.

16
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:34,000
Anyways, today is Wednesday, October 30th of 2024, date 304th of the year and only 62

17
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,520
days left to go.

18
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:42,160
We are broadcasting from the Safety FM studios in Orlando, Florida and coming across the

19
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,960
multiverse known as Safety FM and then hanging out with our friends and colleagues over there.

20
00:02:46,960 --> 00:03:00,880
Oh yes, you know how it goes hanging out and streaming everywhere that we can because why

21
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,480
would we not do that?

22
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:07,000
Anyways, so let's talk about it. If you're kind of new to what we do, we talk about safety

23
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:12,040
in the news, news and safety. That's kind of what our thing is in regards to what we're

24
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:16,640
doing. If you want to interact and find out what the hell is going on and you want to

25
00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:22,640
be a part of it, call in radio.com. We'll get you moving and grooving. Yeah. Call in

26
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:27,560
radio. We'll get you moving and grooving with everything that's going on. No doubt there.

27
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:33,600
So that would be some options for you. Call in radio.com. So there you go. Some things

28
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:39,720
to do if you're so inclined to do show. So call in radio.com outside of that video, audio

29
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,560
and text messaging is everything that we have going on there. You can interact with the

30
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,320
social media platforms that we're on, but here's the good, bad and the ugly. I don't

31
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:52,240
really check them until the end, you know, when the show's over because I just don't

32
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:57,480
do it in real time. Just not what I do. So it makes it difficult for some like, Hey,

33
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,560
did you ignore my comment? Now? I didn't ignore your comment. I was just in the middle of

34
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:07,120
doing a show. So that's probably would be a part of the reason on maybe why I did not

35
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:14,200
contact you in a real time. So there you go. Some info for you. So outside of that, that's

36
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,400
kind of what we do mean. We do a main story, a new story. And then on Wednesdays, well,

37
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,960
it's about Wednesdays and that's what you get to do. Hang out and you know, for some

38
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:28,400
reason I'll get a lot of pictures on Wednesday. Don't know why people send in pictures, but

39
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:34,080
Hey, it is what it is. It is what it was. It is what it was is, is it in all that other

40
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:39,040
stuff that one can mention during that timeframe. Anyways, with that being said, why don't we

41
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,880
start talking right away about what the hell was trending in the overnight? Cause that's

42
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:50,800
going to be important. Here is one was trending rated R safety show. Okay. Chase bank pursues

43
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:56,000
frosters and Elon months puts down roots. Yeah. We'll talk about that as we get into

44
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:02,360
the hit list. Also the song Liam Payne recorded prior to his untimely passing will be released

45
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:08,360
on Friday. Really? It's kind of an interesting one. Like was the finished product already

46
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:13,520
in the works or is this something that, you know, a quick spin a Rinnie, I'm just asking

47
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,720
the question. Don't get mad at me because I'm just trying to figure it out. Also Robert

48
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:21,480
Downey jr. Doesn't want to be re-imagined and another scary movie is in the work. We'll

49
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:26,360
talk about that as we get into casting calls and the king is hiring. We'll talk about that

50
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:31,240
as we get into the details. So as you are, as you are aware, we're going to talk about

51
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,800
a little bit about everything today. And of course, at some point we'll talk about election

52
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:40,720
stuff because you know, we're only six days away and how could we not talk about that,

53
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,120
you know, for the rest of our lives? Cause that's just kind of what's going to happen.

54
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:50,560
So with that being said, if you're ready, I'm ready and we can get everything moving.

55
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,520
So here's what we'll do. We'll bring in the store or the people from feature story news.

56
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,960
Let them tell you weddings going on inside of their neck of the woods and we'll go from

57
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:03,560
there. So if you're ready, I'm ready and let's do that right now. So here's the news.

58
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:10,680
Here is the news on the regular safety show from feature story news in London. I'm Ollie

59
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:15,760
Barrett. Kamala Harris has framed Donald Trump as a threat to democracy in a major speech

60
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:21,080
in Washington. The U S vice president delivered her so-called closing argument to voters at

61
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:25,920
the ellipse, a site next to the white house where the then president Trump addressed a

62
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:31,160
mob of supporters before they launched a deadly riot on Congress in an attempt to overturn

63
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:37,240
the outcome of the last election. Benji higher reports, tens of thousands of people attending

64
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:42,720
this rally focused on a future of freedom and hope. But this speech was about symbolism

65
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:49,600
as much as substance, the location, the American flags, the big USA banners, sending a message

66
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:55,720
that in the words of the vice president, she's putting country above party. She drew a stark

67
00:06:55,720 --> 00:07:02,160
contrast between her and the former president who she called an unstable wannabe dictator.

68
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:07,000
She said that Donald Trump represents chaos and division referencing the January 6th,

69
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:12,800
2021 attack on the U S Capitol and his more recent controversial remarks about coming

70
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:18,180
after his political opponents, people he brands as enemies from within. Donald Trump's campaign

71
00:07:18,180 --> 00:07:24,000
has condemned comments from Joe Biden claiming the president called Trump supporters garbage.

72
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:29,880
The White House says Biden was describing hateful rhetoric as garbage, not Trump supporters.

73
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,600
The U S says it's deeply concerned by an Israeli airstrike on northern Gaza, which the Hamas

74
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:40,240
run health ministry says left at least 93 people dead or missing. Israel says it's looking

75
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:45,440
into reports of civilians being harmed in the strike on the town of Bates, La Jolla.

76
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:49,940
Meanwhile, four Israeli soldiers have been killed in northern Gaza. It comes as international

77
00:07:49,940 --> 00:07:55,200
concern mounts about Israeli legislation to prevent the UN agency for Palestinian refugees

78
00:07:55,200 --> 00:08:00,960
operating in Israel. Dr. Hussam Zomlot, head of the Palestinian mission to the UK, says

79
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:05,160
it would have a devastating impact. It's a lifeline. It's a lifeline for the people in

80
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:10,080
Gaza on the West service. The majority of people in Gaza in terms of health education,

81
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,760
I was educated by honor. I was born in a refugee camp. So does on the way in the in the West

82
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:19,360
Bank and in the region and Lebanon and Syria and Jordan. This is literally, literally a

83
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:24,520
lifeblood for the Palestinian people. Starbucks is reportedly telling corporate employees

84
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:30,760
to return to the office or risk being fired. Tony Waterman reports. Starting in January,

85
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:36,400
Starbucks will institute an accountability process to make sure workers are complying

86
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:42,120
with its hybrid office policy and the penalty for noncompliance could be termination. That

87
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:47,180
is according to an internal memo seen by the Wall Street Journal. It's been nearly two

88
00:08:47,180 --> 00:08:51,800
years since the company mandated corporate employees spend at least three days a week

89
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:58,440
in the office and the company's new CEO, who commutes 1000 miles via corporate jet,

90
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:03,960
told workers last month that there is power in having everybody together from bureaus

91
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:11,300
worldwide. This is FSN. With FSN Spotlight, I'm Simon Marks looking in more detail today

92
00:09:11,300 --> 00:09:17,120
at the latest pronouncements by the Taliban on the rights of women in Afghanistan. You

93
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:23,120
may remember that several weeks ago, women were banned from speaking in public. Now,

94
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:27,760
even when they are at home, they're being banned from speaking to anyone outside their

95
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:33,840
family. Heather Barr is interim women's rights director at Human Rights Watch. This feels

96
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:39,840
like it's targeted very directly at women's rights protesters and women who are opposing

97
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:46,560
Taliban abuses, who of course have to speak to each other to be able to organize protests,

98
00:09:46,560 --> 00:09:51,840
to talk to each other and plan to do things like set up underground schools for girls.

99
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:56,920
This follows on the heels of a much longer declaration that included provisions saying

100
00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:03,400
that women's voices shouldn't be heard in public, which was also shocking and extreme.

101
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:10,080
This is a new sign that in this case, women's rights protesters are their target. And it's

102
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:17,520
part of what seems like it's certain to be an ongoing crackdown where the Taliban do

103
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:22,680
more and more to erase women completely from public life. It is not known how widely the

104
00:10:22,680 --> 00:10:27,520
new rule has been implemented so far. But from the moment the Taliban returned to power

105
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:33,920
following the botched US-led withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, hard-won rights for women

106
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:39,120
have been completely eroded. I'm Simon Marks. To recap the top stories, Kamala Harris has

107
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,540
framed Donald Trump as a threat to democracy in a major speech in Washington. Donald Trump's

108
00:10:43,540 --> 00:10:48,000
campaigns condemned comments from Joe Biden, claiming the president called Trump supporters

109
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:53,080
garbage. The US says it's deeply concerned by an Israeli airstrike on northern Gaza,

110
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:58,400
which the Hamas run health ministry says left at least 93 people dead or missing. And Starbucks

111
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:03,640
is reportedly telling corporate employees to return to the office or risk being fired.

112
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,200
That's the latest feature story news. Oli Barrett reporting.

00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:06,200

135
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,860

gotten to it. And while most of the times it works out the one thing in life that you

137
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:22,640

seen life insurance commercials on TV and thought, yeah, I'll look into it later. Well, the answer

00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:26,440
never knew you cared about rated on safety show. Yeah, you know how it goes information.

166
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,840
You don't care about 16 minutes past the top of the hour and you are still hanging out

167
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:38,040
here on the rated are safety show. No doubt there. Yeah. A lot of stuff going on as we

168
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:42,760
are talking, hanging, banging, doing whatever it is that we do around here. You know, I

169
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:50,320
get very lost in some of the action and commotion of stuff that we do. Yeah. Yeah, I do. I really

170
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:56,800
do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. So there you go. Okay. So let's talk. Let's talk about

171
00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:02,800
the shit list because why would we not do that? There are six days until election day

172
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:09,600
and there is a state of the let's talk about the state of the race. No, we need to talk

173
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:14,800
about this. It's important. The state of the race is important for us to to reference.

174
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:20,400
Why would you say that? It's not, of course, it's important. So take a listen to this because

175
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:26,200
there's information. Joe Rogan says that Kamala Harris demanded that he fly to her to record

176
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:31,160
a one hour podcast in order for her to appear on the show. Rogan declined posting on X.

177
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:35,200
I strongly feel that the best way to do this is in the studio in Austin. My sincere wish

178
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:40,640
is to just have a nice conversation and to get to know her as a human being. I really

179
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:45,280
hope that we can make it happen. So there you go. However, JD Vance reportedly recorded

180
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:50,960
an interview with Rogan today. So we'll see how that goes. Also Harris has pulled $1.7

181
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:57,080
million in media buys across major markets in North Carolina, suggesting that she's either

182
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:02,600
very confident about her prospects or they're abandoning the state altogether. And the Supreme

183
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:08,080
Court has declined the the here the arguments to have our FK Junior's name removed from

184
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:13,660
the ballot in Wisconsin and Michigan or if they decide to be delisted from the ballot

185
00:18:13,660 --> 00:18:21,880
after endorsing Trump earlier this year. What an interesting time with that one. So yeah,

186
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:26,440
so he was on the ballot. Then he asked to be removed from or let me rephrase that he

187
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:32,320
was not on the ballot. Then he was asked to be on the ballot because he wants to be on

188
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,960
the ballot. Then he's asking to be removed from the ballot because he doesn't want to

189
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:43,640
be on the ballot anymore. Okay, it gets too confusing for me. So there you go. Also earlier

190
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:53,400
this year, the modern day check. Hold on check in. Hold on. Modern day check kiting scheme

191
00:18:53,400 --> 00:19:00,480
went viral with tik tok, allowing customers to chase bank of chase bank to deposit a check

192
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:05,360
for virtually any amount then immediately withdraw the funds before the check bounce.

193
00:19:05,360 --> 00:19:10,380
In a speak with me people filmed themselves committing the fraud on the app, which may

194
00:19:10,380 --> 00:19:16,000
at the time called a hack when you should have called it a crime. Now chase once their

195
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:20,720
money bank, the bank has filed lawsuits and three federal courts targeting customers who

196
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:28,640
stole $662,000. The suit seeks to recoup the stolen money plus legal fees and expenses.

197
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:35,700
This is according to CNN. So let me make sure that I'm following along here. You took money

198
00:19:35,700 --> 00:19:41,360
that you did not have in deposit or said that you were depositing it. So here let me give

199
00:19:41,360 --> 00:19:46,000
you the long in the skinny here because this is what it sounds like. So long for all that

200
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,720
free money customers who allegedly withdrew money fraudulently from chase banks ATM using

201
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:56,760
an illegal scheme that blew up on tik tok over the summer. Crude soon be cut hefty checks

202
00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:01,840
back to the bank. These people were able to withdraw funds by writing a check to themselves

203
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:08,440
and immediately withdrawing it. Well, that's a stupid thing to allow people to do seriously.

204
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:13,000
I mean, that's just kind of a dumb thing to, to say, okay, we're going to let you do this.

205
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:17,840
I mean, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that people are, are not wrong for doing it,

206
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:22,760
but geez man who came up with that genius idea. It was like, Oh, I'm sure it was like,

207
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:26,720
Hey, let's benefit it to the customers a little bit more, but that's not what's going on.

208
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,960
Oh, look at that. It's not out of focusing anymore. It does not like me kind of figured

209
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:36,000
that it didn't. Oh, hold on. Maybe it did. Maybe it doesn't. Maybe it doesn't know what

210
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:40,160
to do anymore. My kid. I swear that these cameras that they set up in here are kind

211
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:46,320
of intriguing it from time to time. Oh, there we go. Now, now it likes me again. It's so

212
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:52,080
weird. I know I get distracted by the weirdest thing. That's what I'm supposed to do. It

213
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:56,840
was supposed to be a distraction. Anyways, I know for the audio listening people, this

214
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:01,560
makes no sense, but ignore me. It's okay. The new leadership at Starbucks has a mandate

215
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:06,120
for its corporate workers to get back to the office. Do you hear about this? Did you? I

216
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:10,000
mean, we displayed it. So, I mean, I would hope, imagine that you do. The company has

217
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:15,160
allowed a loose hybrid work structure for about two years. It hasn't been enforced.

218
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:20,520
The new input now employees are required to be at their desk at least three days a week

219
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:26,120
or risk termination. The new CA EO himself enjoys a hybrid work schedule, commuting by

220
00:21:26,120 --> 00:21:33,120
corporate jet from his home in Southern California to Seattle at least three days a week. So

221
00:21:33,120 --> 00:21:40,480
hold on. Let me make sure that I understand this. The corporate CEO, you know, the person

222
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:46,160
that's in charge of all has a private jet, a corporate jet better saying that takes him

223
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:52,080
back from Southern California to Seattle. So means that he can work while he's driving

224
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:57,360
or somebody else is driving for him, like flying the plane. Sounds interesting. Yes.

225
00:21:57,360 --> 00:22:03,880
I mean, I get it. Sounds very at risk with all the stuff that he has going on or that

226
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:08,340
person has going on. I'm just saying, they're throwing that out there. Just some stuff to

227
00:22:08,340 --> 00:22:12,600
think about. I mean, don't get mad at me. I'm just, I'm just saying, just saying what's

228
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:18,360
there. So let's not lie here in regards to that. Anyway, take a listen to this real quick.

229
00:22:18,360 --> 00:22:26,200
Holy planet release its list of 30 must travel destinations in 2025. Yes. And 2025. Hold

230
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:31,720
on. I feel like I jumped a story here. Did I jump a story? I did jump a story. So let's

231
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:38,000
do that one. Then we'll go back. Uh, the best in travel and broken down to the top 10 cities,

232
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:43,920
countries, and regions from the world. Topping the list is Toulouse, France, often referred

233
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:51,160
to as Paris in miniature. The city is considered the perfect weekend. Yes. The perfect weekend

234
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:56,720
desk break destination complete with galleries and industrial venues and cafe, the country

235
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:04,320
of Western Africa, the national Cameroon takes the top spot. Thanks to its stunning beaches,

236
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:09,240
not so crowded national parks and the lively nightlife. Uh, the top region, the visit is

237
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:15,000
low country and coastal Georgia in the U S specifically are the cities of Charleston

238
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:21,120
and Savannah, which are highlighted for the rich historical cultural significance in vibrant

239
00:23:21,120 --> 00:23:28,200
food scene. So there you go. If you want to see the mob scene, that's the thing to do.

240
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,280
Apparently it's what it sounds like. So there you go. Okay. So take a listen to this. Elon

241
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:37,640
Musk has been building a compound near Austin, Texas with multiple properties. So his children

242
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:42,520
and their respective mothers can live next to each other. The New York time reports and

243
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:49,120
must shelled out $35 million for 14,400 square foot mansion and another smaller six bedroom

244
00:23:49,120 --> 00:23:54,320
home directly behind it. Musk has already has a mansion, just 10 minutes away, a walk

245
00:23:54,320 --> 00:24:01,960
away from the adjoining properties. Musk has children with at least three women, including

246
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:09,080
executive for his brain chip company, NeuroLink. She already moved into one of the homes, singer

247
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:15,280
Grimes with, um, with whom mom shares four year old X and remains ongoing custody dispute

248
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:21,640
with the billionaire and the rest of the space would be reserved for his first wife, Justine,

249
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:26,400
when she and the, any of their five kids are in the area to visit. This is according to

250
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:34,080
New York times. There you go. Yep. Turn the radio on. So there you go. I don't know. I

251
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:39,000
mean, it makes it interesting. Not gonna lie. I mean, why would I lie about that? That seems

252
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:46,320
like a strange thing to lie about, but yeah. What do you think? Seriously? I mean, it,

253
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:51,120
it's different, but Hey, I mean, if you can afford to do it, do it. That's what I'm saying.

254
00:24:51,120 --> 00:24:55,760
So take a listen to this. Actress, Terry Gar has passed away. She passed away on Tuesday

255
00:24:55,760 --> 00:25:04,600
of multiples, multiple cirrhosis. Uh, according to her publicist, Gar is best known for her

256
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,960
roles in young Frankenstein and Tootsie. She was 79 at the time of her passing. So there

257
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:14,720
you go. Some stuff going on there. Have you seen that movie? I mean, it's an older movie

258
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:19,120
at this point. I mean, it's an older movie for quite some time, but man, I wonder if

259
00:25:19,120 --> 00:25:25,400
you could make that movie nowadays. It has Dustin Hoffman. Now I'm being serious. I mean,

260
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,720
there's certain movies that I don't think could be released today. Like I don't think

261
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:34,640
like if right now, if, if Jim Carrey was making it up the ranks, cause that's what you had

262
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:39,440
to look at. I don't think you could make Ace Ventura. You know, the first one, I don't

263
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:44,520
think you could redo that one. Nope. I think that that would be definitely a no-go in regards

264
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:50,680
to stuff going on. I'm just throwing that out there. Just don't think it would happen.

265
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:55,960
That's my opinion. Cause that's why we're here. We're kind of hanging out, talking,

266
00:25:55,960 --> 00:26:00,760
just doing our stuff. But there you go. So let's talk about the numbers. The Dow lost

267
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:07,000
about 154 points to close at 42,233 on Tuesday. The S and B increased by nine points to close

268
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:15,880
at 5,832 and the NASDAQ increased by 145 points to close at 18,712. West Texas immediate close

269
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:23,000
at $67 a Barrow and Brent crude was at $70 a barrel. The national average of a price

270
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:28,600
of the gallon of gas was $3 and 13 cents on Tuesday. And Bitcoin surged on Tuesday to

271
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:38,440
a record hig
