We don't really trust the figures in Turkey at all. So we're not even sure really if the first round was as good as they said, but what's clearly happened here is they've tried to keep the economy going and that has failed and they returned to Myanmar the next day and announced that he would be taking these suggestions and will give them due consideration once things are stabilized in the country. In other words, he used the Asean Summit not as a means of breaking this impasse, but as a means of deploying a propaganda tool.

A lot a lot of information, Lots of information going on right there. Anyways. Hi, I'm back. Yeah. You're still hanging out here. It is 30 minutes past the top of the hour. Let's start going down the hit list and talking about some of the things that are going on there. Here you go. Here's something that we normally don't talk about. So, let's do it. A couple in Arkansas celebrated their 80th wedding anniversary this week. Uh, you, uh, you? Ve Evitts 101 and her husband, Leroy, having 103 have been married for eight decades. But their relationship dates back even longer. When, when after they are key of lasting marriage is Leroy said, I'm the head of the house and she's the neck, she controls the head. Good point, I guess that will work out in a, in a pleasurable way, as you do, take a look at and listen and look at that 80 years, 103 101 years old. Holy monkeys, buddy. Uh, congratulations to them on getting it to last that long. Uh, so let's continue talking real quick. A church has risen from the waters of Central Mexico Lake after being submerged for decades. Whatever it's been submerged as long as the marriage lasted. I know other story. The church of veering dolores disappeared back in 1979 when the Prisma dam was built and buried. The colonial community of Zangaro Zangaro. There you go. A drought that has been plagued the area in the recent months brought up its historic Turks back to light. I have to tell you, I would imagine that has to definitely be a site as you do see that going for it anyways. Like I said, if you want to chat away in the box, you're more than welcome and doing that text messaging can be received at 866930 Sfm one. That's 866930 S. F. M. Line. Just in case. I don't even know are the film lines open? I don't think they are. Uh you can text though. You can text her. Sure. I don't know about the phone line thing. I don't have them open case. I have this terrible habit of not opening them when I'm supposed to. It does happen. Okay let's continue, continue, continue, do talking right away. Um So here you go. As of thursday, over 251.9 million Covid vaccines have been administered nationwide and over 100 and 8.9 million americans have been fully vaccinated. While more than 149.4 million have received at least Windows, according to the CDC. The total number of college of cases in the US. is just over 32 million and we're still roughly about 576,000 deaths attributed to the virus. But as you know, as you know, one life changes everything. So imagine 576,000 boys that a game changer that is for sure. So there you go. That's some information going on right there. Let's continue talking just a little bit here. Hundreds of birds invaded two homes in California. More than 800. Yes. 800 birds entered a house and torrents through a chimney last week and remained inside for several days. Days later, a few hours north of Torrance. Another family had a similar situation unfold this time, however, the birds were kept from entering the home due to the great in the fireplace being unable to fly um uh, out of their out on their own shoot shoot was created to funnel the birds to the fireplace through the home, uh, through the back door. County Animal Services determined that the birds were swift were swift it away in that particular regard. So here's the thing. I mean, I don't know would you know if you turn on the fireplace, wouldn't they get out? No, I'm joking. I shouldn't say that. That's such a terrible thing. What did he just say? We have safety. Don't always agree with the viewpoints of our hosts and guests. Now, back to real safety talk on safety. FM. I was joking. Let's comment down. I didn't really mean it. Okay, so let's continue talking. Modern, a booster shot could prevent covid 19 variants. The company announced this week. Moderna's Ceo Stephane Bancel said that the human trials showed people giving a third shot after getting the two dose vaccine had an increased immune response to the virus strains from South Africa and brazil. The company plans to tweak its vaccine target mutations as they develop. They also plan to create a flu combo shot. I mean I keep on hearing about the flu combo. So what are you thinking here when you do hear that? Um So what do you how do you feel if you had to take a numeral threats? Yeah. Not taken to address but I guess if you had to take a third shot, would you be up to it if well let's start off with, have you taken the first two shots? Have you taken one? Have you taken to have you taken? Well not three yet. Have you taken one or have you taken nine? I mean I don't know. I mean, it's kind of, it's there's a lot of variants of communication and information depending on who you speak to. So I don't know. It becomes interesting always. Um, as we do go through it, I look at these things and I go, you have to do what is best for you, but you already know that because I talked about it all the time. Mortal kombat beat down. Okay. Three people were wounded in a school shooting in. Are you ready for this Idaho? Out of all places. Idaho shots rang in the middle school of Rigby of Rigby on thursday morning. According to multiple outlets to students and teachers were injured but their wounds are not life threatening. Officials said that the gunman is in custody and the motive is not yet known. Uh, so there you go. As we are on another show, talking about some more gun violence. And it seems to be this in an ongoing term of stuff that we talked about all the time. Anyways, let's continue talking. After four unsuccessful SpaceX launches, uh, SpaceX successfully launched and landed its starship rocket ship. This week the starship flew about six miles into the gulf of Mexico before it flipped and descended horizontally and then landed vertically on one on one time before one type of landing. According to the Associated Press. The mission was uh, Companies fifth high altitude flight tests from Starbase in texas Elon musk, founder of SpaceX tweeted starship landing nominal. So there you go. This is God's will launch happened to fall on the 60th anniversary of the American travel to space. Did you know that? Uh, some things to think about. So here you go. I would love to get all the side effects of from the flu vaccine and the COVID shot night. Oh yeah, I don't I don't know about that. Uh So there you go. Some interesting stuff that's coming from jim polls all as he does say that anyways. Let's get you into the market beat. Let's talk about what the market has to say. Let's bring in johnny smalls for him to tell us what's going on. Here's your market beat minute for friday May 7th 2021. Equities traded in a very tight range thursday as traders braced for a very important and FP report, the report is expected to show a minimum of one million new jobs, which is both good and bad for the market. In the bull case, a high number of jobs is indicative of a rapidly improving economic situation. In the bear case, a high number of new jobs will put additional upward pressure on inflation and raised fears of higher interest rates based on the number of S and P 500 companies talking about price increases, it looks like inflation is already here next week. Could bring more volatility to the market. The earnings season is quieting down and there aren't many economic releases, but the ones we have will be closely watched. Topping the list are the C P. I and P P. I. Numbers for april numbers that could either soothe or spook the market. You can get the inside track from Wall Street's brightest minds delivered directly to your inbox every day at market beat minute dot com. So there you go. That was john small. It's coming out of our afternoon show on radio big dot FM. Uh So let's talk a we had seen on the other side here, Wall Street enjoyed an upward momentum on thursday, as the dow gained 318 points and the NASDAQ added about 50 points and the SNP closed at about 34 points higher. April's narrowly missed the record for stock buyback by companies as 209 billion. Yes, with a B dollars worth of stock was repurchased. Large amounts of buyback typically indicate that the market will move even higher. So there you go. What are you thinking here? So I know that John was talking about there about new job claims and all that kind of fun stuff. So let me jump into that and then we can get into some other information. The number of americans seeking unemployment benefits dropped last week to the lowest level since the start of the pandemic. Initial jobless claims plummeted to 498,000 down from almost 100,000 from the week before. According to the debt of the Labor Department, economists predicted that the week would be about 527,000 claims. And keep in mind that these are always new claims, not ongoing claims. The overall number of people, uh excuse me, the overall number of people taking some of the government assistance remains high Though with over just we're ready for this 16.1 million Americans. So there you go, that's what's going on. Now. I will tell you the reason that I wanted to bring this up and tie it back into what John was talking about is because now we're starting to see in certain states of course Florida being one of them where the government is already talking about putting back the original mandates that were in place for applying for unemployment. So, certain states, depending on how the state is laid out, they will have a certain amount of jobs that you must apply for within a certain timeframe and you must show verified proof that you have applied and so on. The glorious state of florida is the example as we're talking about here has five a week that someone must actually show that they have applied for. Um Also with that ongoing, this will actually go into place. I believe if I remember what the governor said for this state would go in effect at the end of the month. So starting the end of the month, this will be the, that they would stop doing it. Now keep in mind that florida's unemployment Payout is from one of the lowest inside of the country. I believe it's close to $275 or someone were matched like Massachusetts is somewhere in the $1,200 range at the lowest point. So some interesting stuff as you take a matter of fact, I shouldn't say low, these are the high numbers, high numbers, not low numbers, so to 75, so one of the lowest inside of the country, but Massachusetts has $1,200, um, at the low point of what they are at the high point of what they actually pay out. So it makes it pretty interesting, um, going through that sequence of events. So it's interesting to see how the stock market is playing into the factor, how the jobless claims is playing into a factor. What are you seeing on your end? Because that always becomes the important part of the conversation. I would like to know how that's going to move forward because here's the thing, there is of course the level of scarcity of people not doing what you know, technically right to do. And that's kind of that's a that's a that's a known factor where people will go about and do the right thing and some people will, some people won't and so on. But those things do happen. So we have to start taking a look at a lot of this stuff as we as we move forward. And so do you think that the time is already up where this should actually be removed? Now? Of course this is an opinion question or do you think that it should still continue to go on the way that it is currently set up where there is federal assistance and there is state assistance. So that's my question to you here today anyway. Some things to think about as we are talking a little bit about everything this morning, listen to our host of the rated R. Safety show. Self implode on our airwaves. Only on safety FM Two americans. Two americans were convicted this week of killing an italian police officer back in 2019. A jury in Rome found but Finnegan lee elder 21 Gabrielle natale 20 guilty of homicide and attempted extortion and other offenses into the stabbing death of vice pre Kadar Mario Sicily rega Elder stabbed regular 11 times after being botched on a drug steen. Natale helped hide the murder weapon under italian law. Accomplices can be charged with murder. Both men received lifetime sentences that was making part of the new sequences yesterday as things were going around and about and so on. So there's definitely some things to think about as we are talking here. I don't know, I get all hung up with a lot of the stuff that we talked about. So who knows? Man, who knows? Yeah. Some say I'm a street fighter, a renegade, a courtroom brawler. I'm a trial lawyer. And I have a mission to right wrongs to level the playing field to protect victims by doing what I do best win in court. That's the DNA of Fighter law. Feiger law. I was born for this. There you go. Geoffrey Feiger finger law, you know, any time that you have any kind of court stuff going on and it's probably a good guy to hit up just giving you some information there. So by the way, I thought it was kind of interesting yesterday. Um, we did play a government. Well, let me see. Let me see. Let me rephrase this. A candidate for governor things with Caitlyn Jenner. Now I have some people reach out to me yesterday and asked the question was I supporting? No, I was just sharing information. So then the question, of course, came about what I actually be showing any of the other uh people that are running for government for governor of California. And I don't know if I find them interesting. Sure, I would sure as hell run them. Matter of fact, I have no problem running them. But this is something that we have to think about as we are doing them. I just look at it and I thought it would be something interesting to share because it showed portions of previous life under Bruce Jenner and current life under Caitlyn Jenner. So I thought it would be kind of an interesting twist of things to be able to go about and take a look at. So anyways, there you go, that's that information on that. Don't want to bore you too much on the reasoning behind that. But let's get into some other stuff real quick before we get too far away. Here is our main story on the safety show. So I have to tell you after my many, many years of working inside of the world of transportation. It has always been interesting to me. I actually got to work and interact and reported to at one period of time to a gentleman who always had a day of the week that we referred to as F. O. F because he was under the portion and of the belief that friday's was one of the days that people slacked off the most. So here's my question to you as we know that most people is the way, depending on how they take a look at work. Monday is the worst day of the week according to them because it has to be returned. You have to return to work. I have a case of the Mondays because it's monday, you know, all that kind of fun stuff. You hear that about 1000 times depending on where your work environment is. So here's my question as we go through this, Do you look at a certain day of the week where you feel or you see that the less amount or the least amount of work is actually being done? Is there a certain day? I asked this question because I think it's important, I think it's important to start talking about this. I think it's important that we go through this because here's the gig. If there is a day that is less impactful than the other days, what do you think about that? Do you think that maybe we should look at our work schedules and change on how some of those things are done? Should we look at some of our work schedules and say, okay, maybe we look at a four day work week a I'm not trying to rock the boat here. I'm just trying to mention this real quick. I'm just asking the question. So it becomes very interesting on how a lot of this works because some people get gung ho about it. Some people get upset that things like this are mentioned, I am just asking the question. You have to do whatever you think that's best. Because here's the thing, if you believe that there is a certain day of the week that more people are slacking. Well, there's probably needs to be a different conversation or revamp of that. Now let's be realistic as well as much as I would love to say that people work all the time, they don't present company included. So let's make sure that we're clear. The interesting part is that I have always looked around and try to see what day most people are productive and it really just kind of varies on what they do for a living. So that's where it becomes friday now, of course, what people calling thursday friday Jr which I don't even know how that happened and you know friday becomes friday. Yea or however the hell people say it, it's interesting on how that works now. The fun part here is that I normally look at things task based, so I look at work as not so many, how many hours I've put in its how many task I have accomplished based on what's going on. How do you look at that particular work environment and what are you making of work as of late? I think that that's always important as we are talking about this opposed to it just being one of those things where we kind of go, who knows? Maybe it's one of those conversations that we take slightly deeper. The problem that becomes about this is that we start taking a look at certain days and go all these are okay to be acceptable to be slacking. The funny part is that as I think about this and go through this whole format of talking about it, it becomes one of those weird things that a day of the week that you have renamed becomes an interesting portion. Here's the thing, the guy that I spoke about earlier at the beginning of talking about this referred to friday's as fof the friday stood for fuck off friday because he felt that nobody did work anyways or they were trying to hide depending on what portion of the organization that they were in. It was interesting to see it that way because this gentleman had been with that organization for a little over 20 years and the thing that I always found interesting is that he went around and he said that, but it was very difficult to find him on a friday. Hm interesting on how that works anyways. Just sharing with you some information there for sure. Things to think about. How would you revamp your work is probably one of the most important aspects to think about how you look at work will always depend on how your mood goes when you're interacting with things about work. But what do I know? I'm just a guy behind a microphone. What did she just say? We have safety FM. Don't always agree with the viewpoints of back to real Safety talk on safety FM. Don't go anywhere.
