[00:00:00] :  this show is brought to you by safety. Following program is reading L S V. It contains strong language, sexual situations and violence. It is intended only for mature audiences. Finally, show with the ball should call it like it is rated R safety show on safety FM countdown to audio torture decorated. Our safety show starts in 321 lady ear drum pain. But again, forget the corporate bullshit. This is the rated R safety show with your host, Dr. Uh, It doesn't matter who the host is. Well, is that not the truth or what it surely does Not matter who is filling in for this chair today or tomorrow or any other time that we'd do the show. Anyways, today is Thursday, April the eighth of 2021 day 98th of the year and only 267 days to go before the end of the year. So there you go a lot of stuff going on across the multiverse. Hopefully, you're off to a grand start as we are starting off on this lovely Thursday. Anyways, we're broadcasting live from the safety FM studios in Orlando, Florida, and coming across the multiverse of safety FM and hanging out with our friends and family and sister station. You know, at that other place you're being infiltrated. Radio big. Oh, yeah. Infiltration radio big. That's what's going on. So anyways, we are coming across everything that we can at the moment as we do hang out. So just in case you're not familiar, But hopefully by now you are aware because I think we are an episode 332. Uh, we are a radio show that is a podcast that is also a streaming, um, kind of show at the same time too. So we got a lot of stuff going on. So you do have some different options available on how you want to take a listen of you or so on. Of course, the easiest format to do it is hanging out on the radio station or radio station APP, which is available at safety FM dot com. You can download the app directly from there, just in case you're not familiar with it, or you can watch us on any of the streamers, including safety FM plus Oh, yes, I did say safety FM. Plus, we are available on there as well. Or, of course, a podcast. You know, you know what What some people are doing? Uh, I would say I would. I almost said what the cool kids are doing. But apparently that's what the cool kids are doing in clubhouse. You know the voice chat room thing anyway, So let's start talking about some other things that are going on. And, of course, with being Thursday, we started talking about videos that are trending because that's gonna be important. So let's talk about this real quick. A massive Asian water monitor terrified shoppers after going on a rampage through a 7 11 in Bangkok, Thailand. The original video of the incident racked up nearly a million views before it was deleted. Now the fun part is there have been some other people that have actually duplicated the video and posted the video online. But every time that someone posted, it gets deleted. So there you go. That's a good, fun part about the whole thing. So if you're interested inside of that kind of stuff, that's what you have going on. Well, we got Jonathan Dempsey telling us how clubhouses great, of course, he is a clubhouse monitor. That's what we're probably gonna get to at some point. So I'll kind of speed up the process. He is a monitor to his own chat room inside of there. I mean, I'll put it to you this way. I look at clubhouse in the current state with it not being available on Android, and it only being to the exclusivity of the club of iPhone that becomes an issue. The other portion is let's be realistic, a glamorized chat room where people are able to speak. I mean, it's really what it boils down to at the moment, and, you know, it's kind of funny. Shaped robot, um had a video that she posted about clubhouse about a week or so ago, maybe two weeks, and I think she's spot on with it. I mean, clubhouses. Let's just put it to you this way. There is an audience for pretty much a little bit of everything out there, So if your option is to go and hang out with people in clubhouse, cool. What I'm glad that you're doing is that you're building some kind of community when you're hanging out and doing that. But everybody is gonna be kind of assigned to their own gig. And yeah, it's great. But do you remember? I mean, at least here in the U. S. When I was younger, they were used to have something called a party line and not what you're probably thinking. But it was pretty much a phone service when phones were becoming popular. And I'm not even talking about cell phones. We're talking about landlines where somebody could pick up a phone and dial if you were inside of a neighbourhood because you had a shared phone number. They called it a party line because you never knew who the hell was going to be on it inside of your neighborhood. If you really think about it, Clubhouse is pretty similar to that. Of course you have, you know, the people monitoring and speaking in your building community. But that's the gig. It's like, Can you please mute? Can you Can everybody please mute if you're not talking? Oh, by the way, I have a blah, blah, blah. You know this person inside of there, and they're coming in and hanging out with us, so I don't know. I mean, it's just It's just it's a different approach. But then again, people complain about radio. At one point, people complain about podcasting. I mean, if you really want to go into some dives, take a look at when War of the Worlds was released on radio originally. And then let's talk about how the emergency broadcast system came about. Yeah, that's a whole other story anyway. So there you go. Let's continue talking real quick as you are where we like to talk to our professionals and feature story news for them to tell us what exactly is going on inside of the world of the news. And then we'll come back onto the other side and start talking. Here is the news show from Feature Story News in London. I'm Ali Bharat India has hit a new one day record for new confirmed covid 19 cases over 126,000. Several states, meanwhile, claim they're running out of vaccine shots near Poona. Reports from New Delhi At least three Indian states have complained about vaccine shortages so far, India's worst hit state. Maharashtra says it only has vaccines for three more days and has had two already shut down some vaccination centres. Punjab, Odisha and Andhra Pradesh have all raised similar concerns, asking the government to dispatch more vaccines urgently. But India's health minister has denied that there is any shortage. Instead, he's accused these states, most of them not ruled by Prime Minister Modi's party, of creating panic and mishandling the outbreak. The UK says it's vaccine rollout remains on course despite a change in guidance for young people about the AstraZeneca Covid 19 jab. Regulators say people under 30 will be offered an alternative vaccine if one is available, it's due to evidence linking rare clots to the AstraZeneca job. Ministers say the UK has enough supplies of Pfizer and Moderna vaccines for all adults under 30. Health Secretary Matt Hancock says the rollout will continue at pace. We're totally transparent about these extremely rare side effects and we've said that if you're under 30 then if you want you can have a different one and we've done that because we just want this program to be as safe as it possibly can be. The fact that the regulators who monitor this rollout have spotted a four in one million chance event is impressive and I'm very grateful to them. It's better to be totally transparent. Myanmar's ambassador to London has spent a night locked out of the embassy in the British capital. Cures Women, says staff loyal to the military have taken over the building and are telling him he's no longer the representative in the UK Last month he criticized February's coup. Democracy activists in Hong Kong are applauding a $60 million support package being offered in the UK for Hong Kong is seeking to emigrate there. But the measures being dismissed by pro Beijing campaigners as assigned fewer Hong Kong is than expected are interested in leaving Richard Kimber. Reports from Hong Kong The UK government is pledging to help Hong Kongers settle in. It's launching a new integration program that covers advice on issues from housing to finding employment and school admissions. More than five million of Hong Kong 7.5 million population are eligible to immigrate to the UK under a visa program that followed China's controversial introduction of a national security law in the city. The UK government says it's received 27,000 applications so far and is expecting 10 times that many will apply over the next few years. Democracy activists in Hong Kong say the new funding is a welcome show of practical support. But the scheme is facing criticism from supporters of the Hong Kong and Beijing governments. They claim it's a sign the visa program is less popular than expected from bureaus worldwide. This is Jason.

I don't know why our host has a face for radio rated R safety show. Hey, so there you go a lot of stuff going on inside of the world of the news. So let's take a look. So Jonathan had something else to say. Apparently, there's two comments. Clubhouse sucks. Most people are want to be in there. I don't know. I have not hung out on clubhouse. I mean, I've been there, Uh, but I didn't go into any rooms and hang out just just saying so Let's see. Jonathan Dempsey. Jonathan, what's going on here? Why is there so many letters behind your name? Dude, like there's like 12 Let's say 1234567 89 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 1920 21 22 23 You have 23 letters behind your name, dude. Comment down my friend. 23 letters. Now, here's the thing. Some people will know what some of this stuff means. But what the hell does the other 23 letters mean? I mean, three out of there. I'm just asking the question to ask what the hell is going on, dude. So let's go into what you had to say. The video you shared was funny. I'm using it to let us talk Risk and Safety Club to share experience insights with other professionals, E g on a weekly, uh, women women in safety and future safety. Um, inside of the room. It's another option to engage. Yeah, I agree with you and educate and inform. I also will be available on android suit. You know, you told me that, like, two weeks ago as well That will be available on android suit. Uh, so I'm just asking the question so hopefully you have some kind of stock or you're tied into this company with the way that you're doing it, so I don't know. So anyways, I would love to hear the descriptor of what the hell you have going on with all those letters. Um, because I'm I'm assuming not everybody knows You should probably limit some of it. I'm just throwing it out there. I mean, if I'll put it to you this way, if I ended up putting every single letter that I have, um, from any certificate that I had, I probably need a couple of paragraphs, and I don't think we need to go that far. Anyway, that's just my opinion. Do whatever you want. It's your gig. But probably we probably need to put some encoders out there for people to know what's out there. I mean, I think the last time that me and Sheldon primers were taking a look, there was about 350 designations that were available that you could put behind your name. So just just for the sake of doing so anyways, let's start talking about what is going on inside of the world of the hit list. It is roughly about 14 minutes past the top of the hour right now, taking it from the top 104 year old woman from Colombia has beaten Covid, 19 not once, but twice. Carmen Hernandez was the first diagnosed with the virus back in June of 2020 and was treated at her nursing home. She was recently diagnosed a second time and admitted to the ICU, where she spent 21 days. She was discharged on Monday. It is unknown whether or not she has been vaccinated. So there you go, some interesting stuff going on in there. So she didn't beat it just once but twice. Good for Herb, baby. Anyways, let's continue talking. A two year old boy is fighting for the for his life after being shot in the head and apparent road rage incident in Chicago. The boy was in a car driven by his grandmother when shots were fired from another vehicle. Officers don't believe those involved know each other. So there you go, some information going on right there. And that goes back to what we talk about all the time. And I know people get tired of me mentioning it, but we have to talk about it. We have to talk about the hazard matrix on How do you plan for this? I mean, what is the likelihood, but what kind of damage will it have if it does occur because I'm pretty sure that when you're driving down the road, you don't have the expectancy that the car next to you is gonna shoot at you. And I know that we're talking about Chicago, which seems to be a common theme, that we talk about all the time about gun violence going on in the area. So I don't want to get onto the gun violence bandwagon once again. But it's definitely talking about some other things that are going on because I think all of these are important. So let's look at it in that fashion as we do. Move on Mortal Kombat down. So I don't know if you heard about this, but a surge in Covid 19 deaths in Brazil will soon pass the record that it had in January. Wave setting the U. S. The country's health care system is at a breaking point, which could push the death total to top. The US, despite a population of two thirds the size according to Brazil, became the epicenter of the pandemic contribute to about four deaths per day globally, one in four deaths globally. Let's get that straight, the outlet reported on Wednesday. Despite the surge of the economy. Prime Minister Paolo Gillis expects the country to be back in business, probably in 2 to 3 months from now 2 to 3 months. What do you mean back in business? I'd like to have a better understanding about that. Of course, with everything going on inside of the world, it's kind of difficult to understand what that exactly means, because everybody is handling the situation slightly different now. We did talk about this earlier in the week. We talked about how the cruise lines were doing and improving in all this. So let's talk about some of this right now. Carnival Cruise Line has threatened to leave the U. S ports due to covid restrictions. While we have not made plans to move Carnival Cruise Line ships outside of our US home ports, we may have no choice but to do so in order to resume our operation, which have been paused for over a year, Christie Duffy, Carnival Cruise president, said in a statement. Duffy said that the company would would like to work with the C D. C to find a workable solution to the cruise. Companies are are treated on par and par. Yeah, you know, you know the Gulf ter on par with the rest of the travel industry, like airlines. Earlier this week, Norwegian Cruise Lines announced they plan to require all crew members and passengers will be fully vaccinated prior to departure. The company hopes to resume cruises in the Caribbean and in Europe by July. So here you go. So now we're talking once again about how the passport thing, I mean, because that's realistically what it is. If you're going to actually ask somebody, if they're going to get onto a cruise and then you turn around and say, Hey, you need to be vaccinated you're essentially asking for some version Allergy of the passport. Now I'm going to bring this up because it did happen to a very close person that I know where they went to go get the vaccine. And when they went to go get the vaccine, they were issued the card before they got the vaccine. Yep, I would love to say that I'm joking about that one, but I would definitely be lying. Uh, so it's not a joke. That's exactly what occurred at this one. Pretty popular. Um, we'll say pretty well known store. Um, that's around the world for the most part or around the U. S. Markets, for sure. But it's known worldwide, and some people sometimes think they sell some kind of walls where they don't really sell walls inside of there. Just saying, uh So anyways, thinking about that real quick when you start thinking about cruises, I'll be honest. I have never been on one have opted not to do it. What do you think? Especially, you know, you kind of know the charity in lockdown to some extent inside of the cruise. So now you're now you're you're locked in and you're not going anywhere with a whole bunch of other people. Now, I did hear a presenter reference that cruise lines are like Petri dishes where you're just waiting for disease to Kurt now. That was his opinion. I'm just kind of re quoting what exactly? He said, I don't know. What do you think about it? Have you been on a cruise and are you looking forward to getting back onto a cruise relatively soon? I don't know. Just saying What did he just say? We had safety. FN don't always agree with the viewpoints of our hosts and guests. Now back to real safety. Talk on safety FM. Okay, The average daily Covid 19 death toll plunged by nearly 20% in the U. S over the past week, despite the average number of cases going up. According to the CDC, the average of 745 people died per day between March the 30th and April, the fifth, a drop of the night by 19.7% from the previous week. The decrease in fatalities comes at the vaccination rates rise across the nation. Around three million people are getting jabbed each day. Why do I always think about boxing when somebody says Jeb? I don't know. Uh, so there you go, What do you think? They're so some stuff to think about, for sure, as we do, move forward anyway. So let's continue talking. As of Wednesday, over 171.4 million Covid vaccines have been administered nationwide, over 64.4 million Americans have been fully vaccinated, while more than 109.9 million have received at least one does, according to the C. D. C. the total number of collective cases in the U. S. Is slightly over 30.6 million, with now the death toll hitting over 555,000 deaths attributed to the virus. So what do you think when you hear that we're talking over a half a million people dead because of the virus? What comes to mind when you hear this? I mean, there has to be a lot of thoughts because we have talked about it several times over about the impact that one version has on somebody's life. So imagine what we're starting to talk of over 100,000 over 200,000 and making it over to over half a million. I mean, it's getting interesting more and more that you talk about it. I mean, think about it. This is like, at least in the town that I live in. I was like a quarter of the town, so it's just something to think about. I mean, it's really, really one of those strange things that comes about when you start thinking about Oh, it's kind of it's made up. I mean, how can you say that it's made up? I'm just asking. I mean, just asking the question, not trying to stir up controversy this early this morning, safety in a way never heard of before. The rated R safety show on safety FM. Okay, here we go. At least 20 people were injured and more than 250 residents displaced after an eight alarm fire destroyed a New York City apartment building on Tuesday. The blaze broke out in Jackson Heights neighborhood on Tuesday afternoon, and by the time fire crews arrived, it was an advanced fire. F D N Y. Commissioner Daniel said, According to news reports. Resident Kayla Cardin's 10 said that she was home alone when the fire began, and she was able to escape after the neighbor alerted her to the place. The cause of the fires is unknown, but Daniel said that he was that it was able to spread so rapidly due to open doors. So there you go some things to think about real quick in regards of what is going on. Um, when it comes to stuff like that and I mean, here's the thing we talk about safety on this show, we talk about safety in our livelihoods, because that's what you know. That's what most of us do here. But a lot of times we tend to forget one key component about the whole thing, and that's about safety at home. Like right now as we talk about it. Do you have fire extinguishers at your house? And if you do do, does everyone who lives in your household you know where they're located? And are they easily accessible? That's the other key portion there. Anyway, let's continue talking. Nearly half of the nation, uh, nations, New Covid 19 cases are located in just five states. Uh, you're gonna like this one. Probably not, but I'll share it anyways. New York, Michigan, Florida, Pennsylvania in New Jersey accounts for more than 44 of all new infections between March the 19th now, March the 29th and April. The fourth. About 197 1005 100 cases out of 452,000, according to John Hopkins University, New York and Michigan account for about 22% of the nation's total cases. So there goes for theories where people are saying well compared to other people in social media. I'm pretty sure that I'm handling it. Okay, in comparison, what did he just say? We don't always agree with the viewpoints of our hosts and guests. Now back to real safety. Talk on safety FM. Okay, so it sounds like it's pretty covid full day. One third of covid survivors suffer from psych er, psychiatric or brain problems within six months of their diagnosis, a new study found. Researchers analyzed the health records of 236,379 covid patients, mostly from the US, and found that 34% that were diagnosed with neurological or psychiatric disorders during six months following their virus diagnosis. Of those, about 12.8% were diagnosed for the first time with such an illness, the most common diagnosis where anxiety and depression or mood disorders at 14%. So there you go, so I don't know, So I don't know. I mean, it's interesting to see how all these things are taking about and coming about now as we start talking about them more and more anyways, let's start talking about the stock market and let's get that into here. 25 minutes past the top of the hour. And let's talk to our friend John Smalls as he brings it to you right now. Here's your market beat minute for Thursday, April 8th 2021. Equity traders got some reassurance from the Fed Wednesday, but not enough to spur a large move. The minutes from the last FOMC meeting indicate the committee is not eager to raise interest rates, stating it would be some time before the first hike would come. The NASDAQ lead the market but only gained 20210.25% by the end of the day. The S and P 500 the Dow Jones industrial average both hovered near break even and closed virtually unchanged for the day. Action on Thursday could be different. Fed chief Jerome Powell is scheduled for a speech on the state of the global economy and could give the market and additional boost with global GDP estimates on the rise in recent labor data. Pointing to a solid reopening, positive commentary from the FOMC chair could usher in another market rally with the earnings season right around the corner. Earnings growth in the Q one period is expected to be strong and the estimates are on the rise. You can get the inside track from Wall Street's brightest minds, delivered directly to your inbox at market beat minute dot com. Okay, so let's continue on with what John has to say. Wednesday's trading station was finished mixed as the Dow added 16 points in the SNP rose about six points and the NASDAQ dipped about nine points. Today's closed market a new all time high for the S and P 500. The technology heavy NASDAQ composite fell despite by tech firms, UH, Amazon, Apple and Alphabet all jumped more than 1%. Facebook jumped about 2.2% on Wednesday. Investors appeared cautious on the Federal Reserve release of their meeting minutes, unveiling plans to continue asset purchases at their current rates. Many feel that the wave of inflation coming may force the central banks to change their policy soon. So there you go, a lot of information going on inside of there and well, I guess it's getting close to that time, so maybe we should do that thing that we do around this time because it might be slightly important. So let's do that right now. It is a main story on the radio safety show. Okay, so let's talk about it. You know that it's time you know, that people are going around, you know, that people are talking about the different things that are going on inside of the world of ours. They're pretty excited. They're getting excited or some excitement is going on. I mean, you're seeing right now on social media everybody jumping around and talking about something that they're doing. They're talking about something that they want, something that that is being done or something along those lines. It's like all kinds of craziness out there. You know what I'm saying? Or you have no clue, because we have no clue. That's perfectly fine, too, because sometimes I have no clue what even I'm saying. So don't worry about that portion. Don't worry about that factoid, Um, as we do talk about it. But as you did notice, our show today was called Guess what I am not doing, and that's the fun part. So people go around and they're talking about anything, anything that they're doing right now because they've been locked up for such a long period of time. There's people posting about how they're getting their new vaccine. There's people that are posting that are talking about how they're going around and doing X, y and Z, and that's all cool. Don't get me wrong. I don't want to come across the wrong way that I don't care or that it doesn't matter what they're doing, because, of course it does matter. But here's the thing. There's a lot of things going on right now as portion of the economy is opening. And some of these events that had occurred in our industry previously had not been really going full force. A lot of the stuff that had to be come, Um, we'll say virtual, we'll say virtual. Some places are now starting to open up and talk about some of the events that they have going on and some of the events they will be doing here in the very near future and all that kind of fun stuff. So I mean, some people are getting excited, but, you know, as we always talk about the world of safety, we talk about everything we talk about all the time on how we want to have diversity and inclusion with everything that we do, which is perfectly cool. So I'm starting to notice that there is a lot of events that are starting to open up and people are really excited about being part of the event. So they're going onto the social media platforms and they're talking about how they might be speaking in this state or that state or the other state or all that kind of fun stuff, which is cool. I mean, that's cool. I'm glad that you're able to do so and that you're going around and letting people. Now I am speaking at this event, and the one that I keep on seeing quite a bit of is the one that says I am speaking at an event in September between the 13th and the 15th of September, which is cool. I'm glad people are doing that now. The other portion about the whole thing is that I am not seeing a lot of people saying anything about them not speaking. So what we have done here at Safety FM because we wanted to help the people that are not speaking, we have created the following and let me probably do a screen change real quick if you're following along on the streamer. So if you're following along on the visual component of this thing which that's cool, this is what we've created for you. I am not speaking at any safety conference or expo September the 13th through the 15th. So we have made this sign readily available. We will be posting it on our social media platforms for you to be able to access. Now, if you want to. As you're taking a look at this, we want you to be able to share the love of letting people know how you're not speaking at the event because we don't want you to feel left out. And you can tell everyone how you're not speaking at this event between error at any safety conference between September the 13th through the 15th. Now, here you go. I'll give you even this. I'm gonna leave this thing up throughout the rest of the show. As I am on video. This will actually take you directly to where you can download it. This is a QR code that we're gonna put out there for you to be able to download the sign and posted on your social media. So that way you can feel part of what other people are doing. We want to have inclusion for everyone. So the sign available right there. I am not speaking at any safety conference or expo September the 13th through the 15th. So that will be readily available for you if you desire to do so. If you do so we'll post it. Like I said after the show. That way you can get direct access to it and will leave the cure our code right there open for you to be able to scan it. And it will take you directly to our website for you can actually download the sign. I think it should be something that we should share as much as possible, but only if you're not speaking at any safety conference or expo between September the 13th. It is the 15th. But hey, I'm just trying to help out the industry. What do I know? I'm just a guy behind a microphone. Oops. What did he just say? We have safety FM.
