You might be a republican was a hashtag if you might be Republican. If this hashtag was trending on saturday morning as tweets included, you are covered in fur and say back, You might be uh, you might fight to death to protect the fetus. But you don't, you could care less of what happens to the after it's born. Your jesus is white, but you're still don't do what he's taught you. Uh, you support Georgia, voter suppression law, your suffers, you suffer from fox itis and you used, you refused to wear a mask. Hey, I'm just telling you what was trying to, not saying that I agree or disagree with any other stuff that's saying, they're always hashtag china, rock, chinese rocket was actually making the rounds on the weekend as well, landed on twitter. A top 10 trending tweets over the weekend. As the world waited to see where the parts of the chinese Long March rocket would collide with the Earth tweets included. It hits the U. S. And can get another stimulus check. Um In 2020 china almost destroyed the world china in a 2021 wanted to see if they could do it again.

So there you go. I I put it to you this way, I was reading one yesterday that the Burson was referencing Happy Mother's Day to me. Yeah, they were talking not to me like me, but Mother's Day to me as themselves because they said that they ended up having to bring themselves up, which I was like, hey, that's a that's a definitely an interesting twist on how you approach that. So there you go. Some interesting things there for sure. Anyways, let's get you to our friends and some feature story of the news. Let them talk about what they have going on and then that way we can continue on throughout what we are doing this morning. So take a listen now from our stories from feature story news. Here is the news on the safety show, from feature story news in London. I'm ali Barrett. There have been fresh clashes in Jerusalem ahead of an annual Nationalist march. Many Palestinians see the Jerusalem day flag March as a provocation. Hundreds of Palestinians and dozens of Israeli police have been injured during clashes in recent days. India's recorded more than 366,000 cases of Covid 19 a dip from its record high of 414,000. But concerns are that the falling numbers could be due to lower testing, experts warn. The peak of the virus outbreak is yet to arrive. Ishaan Gerg reports from New Delhi on Monday India tested 1.4 million people, half a million fewer than were tested just a week ago. The federal government says it has eased testing to reduce burden on labs, experts warn that cases could peak in the next two weeks when India could record close to 800,000 cases, but only if adequate testing is conducted. Many states continue to grapple with a lack of oxygen beds and medicines. The U. K. Is set to further ease covid 19 lockdown measures due to positive data on the virus. As prime Minister Boris johnson will announce later that indoor hospitality and household mixing can resume next monday, people will be allowed to meet in groups of up to 30 outdoors and pubs and restaurants will be able to reopen indoor service. Health Minister Nadine Dorries says it's good news. The data is good but it's a mixture of caution and optimism as we move out, we're in a great place. Don't underestimate where we are. We have twice weekly lateral flow testing available to all. We have the capacity surge test in local communities door to door where we see variants of concern arising. We're in a really good place to nail a virus. Important thing is that we don't blow it, we keep moving forward, making sure that we keep everybody safe. The chief doctor at a hospital that treated alexei Navalny has gone missing on a hunting trip. The hospital had claimed the Russian opposition figures condition was caused by blood sugar problems while german doctors later confirmed he had been poisoned, Julia chapman reports from Moscow when alexei Navalny fell into a coma in august last year, alexander Markovsky headed up the Siberian hospital where he was treated. He insisted that the opposition figure did not need to be moved, but relatives later arranged for his transfer to a facility in Berlin. The arms hospital denied the german findings that Navalny had been attacked with a nerve agent. Three months later, Dr Markowski became the head of the regional Health Department. A search is now under way for the doctor who authorities say had been on a hunting trip on May 7th on May 9th. An all terrain vehicle was found in the search. But dr Muratov skis, whereabouts remain unknown from bureaus worldwide. This is FsN with FsN spotlight. I'm Simon Marks taking a closer look today at the situation in Scotland after local elections that saw the Scottish National Party secure 1/4 term in government with a pro independence majority of members of the Scottish parliament on sunday night, Scotland's first minister, Nicola sturgeon says she told Prime Minister Boris johnson that a second referendum on independence is now a matter of when not if journalist magnus Linklater is a former editor of the Scotsman, there will be a majority in the parliament for a second referendum. And who knows, the tussle is now with Boris johnson Forest has said no, absolutely not. Now is not the time. Uh Nicola sturgeon, to be fair is also saying, now is not quite the time. She says we've got to beat Covid first. Uh And only then will she turn to the possibility of getting a second referendum? And that will be what 2-3 years? Something like that. It's been seven years since Scots rejected independence in what was called at the time a once in a generation referendum on the issue. But as the latest discussions demonstrate like the proverbial sword of Damocles, the possibility of a rerun continues to hang over Scottish politics And over the rest of the UK. And to recap the top stories, there have been fresh clashes in Jerusalem ahead of an annual nationalist March. India's recorded more than 366,000 cases of COVID-19, which is a dip from record highs. The UK is set to further ease covid 19 lockdown measures due to positive data on the virus and the chief doctor at a hospital that treated alexei Navalny has gone missing on a hunting trip. That's the latest feature story. News, Ali Barrett reporting. This show is almost as enjoyable as hearing the sound of the toilet flush rated r safety show on safety FM.

This message brought to you by meals on wheels. America and the ad council safety in a way never heard of before. The rated R safety show on safety is in. Okay. So a lot of stuff going on inside of the world of the news as we do discuss early, early, early this morning. Um, so, uh, I should probably say, let me, let me do the correction here early this morning. If you're actually inside of this time zone, if you're not inside of this time zone, then it's not early in the morning. So it could be later in the afternoon. Who the hell knows exactly what's going on? Some stuff to think about for sure. Um, as we do talk about it. So there you go. Anyway, so let's continue talking about some other stuff as we do move forward here. I'm talking and moving and grooving and all that other fun stuff that we do. Uh, so let's give you to the top of the hit list of what exactly is going on to. Talking a little bit about everything last week we were discussing California. So let's not do anything different today when it comes to that. So let's talk about the population changes. The population of California is now under 39.5 million, marking the first time in recorded history that the state has reported a decline. Yeah, you heard me correctly there, the Golden State lost over 100 and 80,000 people last year. While the pandemic and unemployment were major factors, the drop followed several years of minor population gains. That shows six point when million people left the state, while 4.9 million moved in. So I'm sorry to wonder if this would be the time to start reconsidering if you ever wanted to move to California um to do so. Uh Just a question of course, because you never know around here on which one you think might be best. Just some stuff to think about anyways, remnants of that of an out of control chinese rocket crash landed and the indian ocean. Late saturday night. The landing came after speculation over the long March five B rocket might hit with chinese engineers estimated that could land as far north as new york and as far south as chile. The rocket launched on april the 29th carrying um, the first module of a china future of a chinese future space station. So there you go, far enough, I don't know stuff to think about. Probably for sure. Anyways, Colorado police are investigating a shooting that left six dead in a mobile home near Colorado Springs. Official found six adult victims and early hours on sunday, as well as alleged gunman who appeared to have killed himself. Reports suggest that Children were found at the scene virtually unharmed. Police believe that the shooter was one of the victims, boyfriends. Yeah, boyfriends, no motive has been reported yet. Uh, I wonder how that's gonna go. What do you think the breakdown is going to be there? I kind of have some ideas. I have some ideas of what it could potentially be. What do you think when I say that, um, there's some thoughts for sure as I do talk about it. Because what do you, what do you think if they're saying that it's one of the boyfriends, what is the normal cause that we normally talk about or the normal cause of things that you would normally see? I mean, let's just be realistic, not trying to be mean, oh, here, but let's be real on what normally does come about. I mean, we kind of know what it is, We know the gimmick, don't we? I mean, I think we would at this particular point. What are you thinking when you hear something along these lines? I mean, I'm just asking to ask at this point, I feel because I think we've been through these before where we talk about where we're seeing a lot of incidents or issues that occur um on where the area is or when you start saying, oh yes, it's somebody's boyfriend was involved in it and then it's like a different story for sure. Uh Anyway, so who knows, who knows, who knows, who knows, who knows? Uh So what else do we got? What else do we got? Um Hall of Famer trainer bob Baffert has been suspended from Churchill Downs after his horse medina Spirit failed the post race drug test. Yeah, good luck for the Kentucky Derby here, Baffert told the reporters that that he is working with the Kentucky Horse racing commission as investigating the manner while denying knowledge of wrong doing Medina Spirit, who recently won the Kentucky Derby tested positive for steroids. Which is one of which is that? What is it, but which is the one that's kinda helps treat pain and anti inflammation? Yeah, that particular one. Uh This is the fifth Battleford horse to have failed a drug test in just over a year, yikes not a good, not a good one. Good morning, by the way, Mr Postal, thank you for the message inside of the box. Um Some things to think about for sure, as we do talk about the horse racing because I don't know, I always find it interesting on how some of that stuff comes about and works, that's for sure. Um what happens to the people that bet, you know, made the bet? Do they get to keep the money? I'm just wondering asking for a friend because I definitely do not bet inside of those things anyways. Let's continue talking some more about some other things going on. For sure. For sure. For sure they did it Okay. The homicide rate in Los Angeles is on track to match last year's surge of over 350 victims. Yeah, at least 115 people have already been killed in the city this year, mostly due to the up tick and gun violence, according to the L. A. P. D. S. Steps last year, homicide have the highest number. Yes, the highest number. Um, and then more than 10 years since some stuff to do, you know what I have to tell you? I have to tell you. This throws me off because I had this terrible habit of always looking down when my stupid phone goes off. So if you ever want to catch me, catch me when I'm actually on the air trying to talk about something and then you kind of sent me something that I'm supposed to know exactly what you're talking about when I have no clue. Yeah, when I have no clue. So there you go. That's why I don't pay attention to my phone half of the time where I put it on. Do not disturb. Just F. Y. Um Let's continue talking. Belgian monitor show named Arrow in a pennsylvania Police Department first canine since the 19 sixties, the pup was rescued. The department after spending eight months at the Burlington County animal shelter would just write, write training. Arrow was already to join the force along patrol. Mikhail healthy. He also lives with his new best bite. So there you go. We have a new dog. Can we just say that at the very beginning of the thing? I think that would have made it easier. You are listening to something, you're listening to the rated R. Safety show. Okay, so did you hear this one Dr Fauci said on sunday that mask wearing could become a seasonal thing during the interview on NBC News meet the press. The top doc said that the americans have gotten so used to wearing a face covering that he predicts they will elect to wear them in the future years to help diminish respiratory disease. He also predicted that there will be there will not be a surge of covid 19 cases. This false if the majority of americans get vaccinated. Keep in mind, keep in mind keep in mind that all this stuff is model based. So he's going based on model prediction. So the more data you get, the more the model changes. That's kind of normally how it goes. If not then you kind of don't know what the hell is going on. That's how models work. But here's the thing When you get model information then you kind of change as it goes, as it goes as it goes. And people were pissed off when he used to talk about other stuff. I don't know if people are gonna be pissed off about the mass thing now but we'll see how that goes moving. Um so there you go. Um let's continue one more time. The us added only 266,000 jobs last month. The number significantly lower than economists predicted of one million. The unemployment rate rose slightly to 6.1 from the previous month but remains much higher than the 50 50 year low of 3.5% which has reported pre covid. So there you go. Some things to think about. We're sure 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 FM. So did you hear about this one? Pfizer is donating vaccines to athletes participating in the 2020 olympics and the paralympics games. Athletes were able to get the shots in their in their countries, which initially does um does is being scheduled before the end of the month. The donation will not impact the supply of doses to the national population. According to officials statement from the company. The game was delayed from last year's are scheduled to kick off on July the 23rd in Tokyo. So there you go. So it will be happening in Tokyo Tokyo, Tokyo Tokyo. So there you go. Um So I don't know a lot of stuff to think about for sure as we are bringing this up um in talking about it. So let's talk about something else going on real quick. I want to mention this because if not I'm gonna tend to forget about it. I know, I know I'm terrible, I'm terrible about these things if I don't mention them in the time that I'm thinking about them. If not uh it just goes away from me. It goes away, goes away. Of course it's not gonna come up now do I? Do I just talk about it, talk about it. Oh yeah, because I need to learn how to type, that's why if not I'll never be able to talk about some of these things. Um so let's play this one for, you can see what I'm talking about and then we'll come back and talk some more. Have you ever sat back and ask yourself that question, Who is in your corner? Well, that's what we're all about. On May the 18th at safety day 2021 presented by the A. C. F. S come to the event on May the 18th at the Rosen Plaza Hotel in Orlando florida. There will be world renowned speaker speaking about this. All important subject of who is in your corner when it comes to dealing with safety. If you want to learn on how to reduce risk houses aboard safety and be a health champion, this is the event for you. Don't miss out on this event available by the A. C. F. S. Now, the question that always comes up, it's, what are these events worth? What is the cost? What is it going to cost me? Well, it's not gonna be as much as some of the other events, you will get this great value for $30. Yes, you heard me correctly. $30 that's lunch, that's parking and that's even C. E. U's For $30. For more information, go to a cfs dot org, that's a cfs dot org and enjoy safety Day 2021 an in person event. So there you go. If you're going to be in the Orlando area, I would probably strongly recommend that you come hang out at safety Day if you are so inclined to do so. Um I will tell you price point wise, you're not going to be there for 30 bucks for everything that's included inside of their um I think Sam Goodman was the one that was going around and saying that when it was come, if you come and do you think about it that after you would pay everything that you would go to for normal price of a ticket to go to a conference. Even if you include the airfare, more than likely you end up being on the lower side of the equation. Just to think about as we do move forward about. Anyway, let's continue talking a little bit more talked about Pfizer. Anyway let's talk about this. One of Wisconsin man who punched his son To death over a piece of cheesecake, plead guilty to homicide on Friday Travis Steakhouse 30 was charged the 2nd 2nd degree of reckless homicide. Child abuse and child neglect in June 2019 death of his five year old son with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported. Uh he faces 37 years in prison. He is sentencing for the set, we're sentencing for next month. Uh so there you go. There you go. I don't know, I don't know. So hold on, how good is this freaking piece of cheesecake? Did you decide that all of a sudden killing your kids worth it? I mean, I don't know what the hell you think, you know Real quick. I mean that is just plain crazy. Anyway, 26 minutes past the top of the hour, we are starting off this lovely Monday. Uh moving forward. And so by the way, I haven't mentioned it in days and not because we were not here, but don't forget about this. That will lead you to that because this is so important. Um just in case you've forgotten about it, let's make sure that we continue to make certain things you know out there that we need to talk about. So here you go. Um, here you go. We made this little sign. I kept on seeing a lot of people posting on how they were speaking at safety events and I didn't want you to feel left out if you weren't. So if you're so inclined to do so you can do this, you can do this, you can turn around, turn around, turn around, turn around and scan that. Barcode, scan the QR code, that's right there. It will lead you to our website. That will take you to this page. It has a little video. If you don't watch the video doesn't make a lot of sense, but it will lead you to a video that you can get this lovely sign that says, I am not speaking at any safety conference are expo september 13th Through the 15th and I'm sure a lot of people who love me because of, you know if you post it on social media so there you go, I don't want you to feel left out. So there's a QR code for you to be able to hang see it and all that kind of fun stuff. I think that all those things will be readily important. Uh So there you go. By the way I have to tell you because I'm gonna put is this gonna be pressure? I don't think it will be pressure if they do it correctly. The A. C. F. S. Has a little app. I know they've been working on it on the background and you know we're about a week out at this point that if they do release it you will be able to meet up with people socially virtually prior to the event that's in person. So I think it's kind of cool. I think it's kind of a cool thing if they release it. I mean, I know we're eight days away. It probably should have not said anything about it. But you know how that goes sometimes? 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. Oops, Here is our main story on the right safety show. Okay, so let's talk, Let's talk, Let's talk This Morning a little bit about some of the craziness, some of the craziness that we don't, that we don't talk about. Hold on julie e Keaton. Uh, so there, so let's talk about the things that are important. Yeah. The things that are important. Are you thinking about this real quick? Because I want you to give it some thought what's most important? Yeah. What's most important when you wake up day in and day out and get ready to go to work or if you're going to bed because you just came back from work depending on whatever is going on. But when you get up and you start doing the things that you do, what do you deem to see to be the most important? What do you deem to be that thing that you can't do without? What do you deem to think that is so important that you can't do without anything else. And if you tell me a cup of coffee, I might vomit just in case. Um no sponsorship there for sure. But that's what I want you to think about for a moment. Think about all of the things that come up. I want you to think about all the things that are so important that you have to figure out at some point. What is most important? Is it getting ready in the morning? Is it going to the location? Is it getting everything ready to go? I don't know, I'm asking the question because I want to have a better understanding of it, but what is most important? Some people tend to forget what this portion of the conversation about, but here's what I think about. We kind of all have this ideology or ideas or values and all this other kind of fun stuff that we do move forward with and then we come about and think about some of these things and we don't apply them to all things of life. So when you go and accept a position for an employer, you are deeming that based on your time and based on what is going on. That money could be slightly important because hey, that's what we used to live. I mean, that makes sense to me. But that's important to you. You're willing to give up your time for money. So that's what's most important what you're doing. So also at this time we kind of make this agreement with our employer that we are accepting their money because we are willing to give X. I mean, think about it for a moment. What is untruthful about that statement? Really? Nothing. So what happens when it comes to morals and values? Do you feel from time to time that you have to give some of that away as part of your price point of what you're doing for work organization now? That's kind of an interesting one. So think about that for a moment, Do you ever have to give up your beliefs, your values, your morals for to do the work that you do? I'm asking it becomes an interesting conversation when you really start thinking about it at what time or at what point will you devalue what you're doing for money? So what's most important? And I know it becomes kind of odd and I know we've had several of these conversations and different variations and I I mean depending on on what you've heard, I could go very deep and in depth with some of this stuff and use some harsh language that some people have not liked because I have named it. Uh I have named it very similar to the most popular profession in the world. Okay, so think about this for a moment. So what are you doing? What is most important? Are you willing to give up, expert see? And if you are why are you willing to do so? I don't know what happens most of the time. Some people like these ideas that were doing all these things for the betterment of the community, but also what are you willing to give up? And I don't know because when I think about this, it becomes very confusing for me and don't get me wrong, I have had this moral issue as many have and when it comes to this conversation, because here's the gig. We all sell our time. To some extent. Some people value at X, some people value added, see it. Some people even get pissed off when they find out how much the value of somebody else's time is worth compared to what you were selling yours for. So what happens? So here's the gig. Do your safety standards, safety value, safety practices, organizational change values, organizational change practices? Are they valued at what you're looking for? Because you are selling your time to an extent, What is it worth now? We can sit here and talk all day about, Oh yes, you should have a primary job and you should have a side hustle and blah blah blah blah blah. And you've heard people tell you that throughout the years and yes, we talk about work life commitment, which that's understandable as well. So don't take that the wrong way. But at what point do you start putting value and at what time do you start putting money and at what time do you start putting standards higher than each other? Hopefully you never have to go through that. Hopefully you never have to really start thinking about any of that process. But if you do what happens, What happens when that portion in time comes about that you have to make the difficult one that you have to make the decision if the money is more important than what you are willing to sell, what if they're asking you to sell something that you're not willing to do? Think about it. You are essentially selling your time, your values, your morals all the time. So have you been asked to do something that you thought was unethical? Were you willing to commit to it? I'm not putting you in a bad spot. I'm just asking you to think about it. Definitely not asking for anybody to say, oh yes, that was me. Think about it. There's companies and organizations that ask for people to do stuff all the time that could be considered questionable. That could be considered, hey, it's one of those weird things in life that you probably shouldn't be doing. So I don't know. I think about this all the time. It comes up in conversations all the time and I don't know which is the correct answer. Because you have to sit there for about we go, is this ethically correct to do? Or is the money that's coming in more important? Mm interesting. And no one can ask that over and over again and drive themselves crazy at the end of the day, I always look at it this way. What is most important to you? Can you sleep with yourself and not in the way you're probably thinking there, but can you sleep with the choices that you've made? It becomes where you enter an interesting concept. Sometimes you have to put your money where your mouth is and sometimes you don't. That's the fun part. What happens is at the same time to as you can't sit and you can't talk and do all these things and say how you believe in ethics and believe in this. But at the portion that somebody is willing to offer you money for it, you're willing to change. And I've seen that happen throughout the years. It's interesting on how money can change people some good, some bad. I think it kind of just more like a magnifying glass, if you really think about it, just really magnified more than more of what you are. That

So there you go. I I put it to you this way, I was reading one yesterday that the Burson was referencing Happy Mother's Day to me. Yeah, they were talking not to me like me, but Mother's Day to me as themselves because they said that they ended up having to bring themselves up, which I was like, hey, that's a that's a definitely an interesting twist on how you approach that. So there you go. Some interesting things there for sure. Anyways, let's get you to our friends and some feature story of the news. Let them talk about what they have going on and then that way we can continue on throughout what we are doing this morning. So take a listen now from our stories from feature story news. Here is the news on the safety show, from feature story news in London. I'm ali Barrett. There have been fresh clashes in Jerusalem ahead of an annual Nationalist march. Many Palestinians see the Jerusalem day flag March as a provocation. Hundreds of Palestinians and dozens of Israeli police have been injured during clashes in recent days. India's recorded more than 366,000 cases of Covid 19 a dip from its record high of 414,000. But concerns are that the falling numbers could be due to lower testing, experts warn. The peak of the virus outbreak is yet to arrive. Ishaan Gerg reports from New Delhi on Monday India tested 1.4 million people, half a million fewer than were tested just a week ago. The federal government says it has eased testing to reduce burden on labs, experts warn that cases could peak in the next two weeks when India could record close to 800,000 cases, but only if adequate testing is conducted. Many states continue to grapple with a lack of oxygen beds and medicines. The U. K. Is set to further ease covid 19 lockdown measures due to positive data on the virus. As prime Minister Boris johnson will announce later that indoor hospitality and household mixing can resume next monday, people will be allowed to meet in groups of up to 30 outdoors and pubs and restaurants will be able to reopen indoor service. Health Minister Nadine Dorries says it's good news. The data is good but it's a mixture of caution and optimism as we move out, we're in a great place. Don't underestimate where we are. We have twice weekly lateral flow testing available to all. We have the capacity surge test in local communities door to door where we see variants of concern arising. We're in a really good place to nail a virus. Important thing is that we don't blow it, we keep moving forward, making sure that we keep everybody safe. The chief doctor at a hospital that treated alexei Navalny has gone missing on a hunting trip. The hospital had claimed the Russian opposition figures condition was caused by blood sugar problems while german doctors later confirmed he had been poisoned, Julia chapman reports from Moscow when alexei Navalny fell into a coma in august last year, alexander Markovsky headed up the Siberian hospital where he was treated. He insisted that the opposition figure did not need to be moved, but relatives later arranged for his transfer to a facility in Berlin. The arms hospital denied the german findings that Navalny had been attacked with a nerve agent. Three months later, Dr Markowski became the head of the regional Health Department. A search is now under way for the doctor who authorities say had been on a hunting trip on May 7th on May 9th. An all terrain vehicle was found in the search. But dr Muratov skis, whereabouts remain unknown from bureaus worldwide. This is FsN with FsN spotlight. I'm Simon Marks taking a closer look today at the situation in Scotland after local elections that saw the Scottish National Party secure 1/4 term in government with a pro independence majority of members of the Scottish parliament on sunday night, Scotland's first minister, Nicola sturgeon says she told Prime Minister Boris johnson that a second referendum on independence is now a matter of when not if journalist magnus Linklater is a former editor of the Scotsman, there will be a majority in the parliament for a second referendum. And who knows, the tussle is now with Boris johnson Forest has said no, absolutely not. Now is not the time. Uh Nicola sturgeon, to be fair is also saying, now is not quite the time. She says we've got to beat Covid first. Uh And only then will she turn to the possibility of getting a second referendum? And that will be what 2-3 years? Something like that. It's been seven years since Scots rejected independence in what was called at the time a once in a generation referendum on the issue. But as the latest discussions demonstrate like the proverbial sword of Damocles, the possibility of a rerun continues to hang over Scottish politics And over the rest of the UK. And to recap the top stories, there have been fresh clashes in Jerusalem ahead of an annual nationalist March. India's recorded more than 366,000 cases of COVID-19, which is a dip from record highs. The UK is set to further ease covid 19 lockdown measures due to positive data on the virus and the chief doctor at a hospital that treated alexei Navalny has gone missing on a hunting trip. That's the latest feature story. News, Ali Barrett reporting. This show is almost as enjoyable as hearing the sound of the toilet flush rated r safety show on safety FM.

This message brought to you by meals on wheels. America and the ad council safety in a way never heard of before. The rated R safety show on safety is in. Okay. So a lot of stuff going on inside of the world of the news as we do discuss early, early, early this morning. Um, so, uh, I should probably say, let me, let me do the correction here early this morning. If you're actually inside of this time zone, if you're not inside of this time zone, then it's not early in the morning. So it could be later in the afternoon. Who the hell knows exactly what's going on? Some stuff to think about for sure. Um, as we do talk about it. So there you go. Anyway, so let's continue talking about some other stuff as we do move forward here. I'm talking and moving and grooving and all that other fun stuff that we do. Uh, so let's give you to the top of the hit list of what exactly is going on to. Talking a little bit about everything last week we were discussing California. So let's not do anything different today when it comes to that. So let's talk about the population changes. The population of California is now under 39.5 million, marking the first time in recorded history that the state has reported a decline. Yeah, you heard me correctly there, the Golden State lost over 100 and 80,000 people last year. While the pandemic and unemployment were major factors, the drop followed several years of minor population gains. That shows six point when million people left the state, while 4.9 million moved in. So I'm sorry to wonder if this would be the time to start reconsidering if you ever wanted to move to California um to do so. Uh Just a question of course, because you never know around here on which one you think might be best. Just some stuff to think about anyways, remnants of that of an out of control chinese rocket crash landed and the indian ocean. Late saturday night. The landing came after speculation over the long March five B rocket might hit with chinese engineers estimated that could land as far north as new york and as far south as chile. The rocket launched on april the 29th carrying um, the first module of a china future of a chinese future space station. So there you go, far enough, I don't know stuff to think about. Probably for sure. Anyways, Colorado police are investigating a shooting that left six dead in a mobile home near Colorado Springs. Official found six adult victims and early hours on sunday, as well as alleged gunman who appeared to have killed himself. Reports suggest that Children were found at the scene virtually unharmed. Police believe that the shooter was one of the victims, boyfriends. Yeah, boyfriends, no motive has been reported yet. Uh, I wonder how that's gonna go. What do you think the breakdown is going to be there? I kind of have some ideas. I have some ideas of what it could potentially be. What do you think when I say that, um, there's some thoughts for sure as I do talk about it. Because what do you, what do you think if they're saying that it's one of the boyfriends, what is the normal cause that we normally talk about or the normal cause of things that you would normally see? I mean, let's just be realistic, not trying to be mean, oh, here, but let's be real on what normally does come about. I mean, we kind of know what it is, We know the gimmick, don't we? I mean, I think we would at this particular point. What are you thinking when you hear something along these lines? I mean, I'm just asking to ask at this point, I feel because I think we've been through these before where we talk about where we're seeing a lot of incidents or issues that occur um on where the area is or when you start saying, oh yes, it's somebody's boyfriend was involved in it and then it's like a different story for sure. Uh Anyway, so who knows, who knows, who knows, who knows, who knows? Uh So what else do we got? What else do we got? Um Hall of Famer trainer bob Baffert has been suspended from Churchill Downs after his horse medina Spirit failed the post race drug test. Yeah, good luck for the Kentucky Derby here, Baffert told the reporters that that he is working with the Kentucky Horse racing commission as investigating the manner while denying knowledge of wrong doing Medina Spirit, who recently won the Kentucky Derby tested positive for steroids. Which is one of which is that? What is it, but which is the one that's kinda helps treat pain and anti inflammation? Yeah, that particular one. Uh This is the fifth Battleford horse to have failed a drug test in just over a year, yikes not a good, not a good one. Good morning, by the way, Mr Postal, thank you for the message inside of the box. Um Some things to think about for sure, as we do talk about the horse racing because I don't know, I always find it interesting on how some of that stuff comes about and works, that's for sure. Um what happens to the people that bet, you know, made the bet? Do they get to keep the money? I'm just wondering asking for a friend because I definitely do not bet inside of those things anyways. Let's continue talking some more about some other things going on. For sure. For sure. For sure they did it Okay. The homicide rate in Los Angeles is on track to match last year's surge of over 350 victims. Yeah, at least 115 people have already been killed in the city this year, mostly due to the up tick and gun violence, according to the L. A. P. D. S. Steps last year, homicide have the highest number. Yes, the highest number. Um, and then more than 10 years since some stuff to do, you know what I have to tell you? I have to tell you. This throws me off because I had this terrible habit of always looking down when my stupid phone goes off. So if you ever want to catch me, catch me when I'm actually on the air trying to talk about something and then you kind of sent me something that I'm supposed to know exactly what you're talking about when I have no clue. Yeah, when I have no clue. So there you go. That's why I don't pay attention to my phone half of the time where I put it on. Do not disturb. Just F. Y. Um Let's continue talking. Belgian monitor show named Arrow in a pennsylvania Police Department first canine since the 19 sixties, the pup was rescued. The department after spending eight months at the Burlington County animal shelter would just write, write training. Arrow was already to join the force along patrol. Mikhail healthy. He also lives with his new best bite. So there you go. We have a new dog. Can we just say that at the very beginning of the thing? I think that would have made it easier. You are listening to something, you're listening to the rated R. Safety show. Okay, so did you hear this one Dr Fauci said on sunday that mask wearing could become a seasonal thing during the interview on NBC News meet the press. The top doc said that the americans have gotten so used to wearing a face covering that he predicts they will elect to wear them in the future years to help diminish respiratory disease. He also predicted that there will be there will not be a surge of covid 19 cases. This false if the majority of americans get vaccinated. Keep in mind, keep in mind keep in mind that all this stuff is model based. So he's going based on model prediction. So the more data you get, the more the model changes. That's kind of normally how it goes. If not then you kind of don't know what the hell is going on. That's how models work. But here's the thing When you get model information then you kind of change as it goes, as it goes as it goes. And people were pissed off when he used to talk about other stuff. I don't know if people are gonna be pissed off about the mass thing now but we'll see how that goes moving. Um so there you go. Um let's continue one more time. The us added only 266,000 jobs last month. The number significantly lower than economists predicted of one million. The unemployment rate rose slightly to 6.1 from the previous month but remains much higher than the 50 50 year low of 3.5% which has reported pre covid. So there you go. Some things to think about. We're sure 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 FM. So did you hear about this one? Pfizer is donating vaccines to athletes participating in the 2020 olympics and the paralympics games. Athletes were able to get the shots in their in their countries, which initially does um does is being scheduled before the end of the month. The donation will not impact the supply of doses to the national population. According to officials statement from the company. The game was delayed from last year's are scheduled to kick off on July the 23rd in Tokyo. So there you go. So it will be happening in Tokyo Tokyo, Tokyo Tokyo. So there you go. Um So I don't know a lot of stuff to think about for sure as we are bringing this up um in talking about it. So let's talk about something else going on real quick. I want to mention this because if not I'm gonna tend to forget about it. I know, I know I'm terrible, I'm terrible about these things if I don't mention them in the time that I'm thinking about them. If not uh it just goes away from me. It goes away, goes away. Of course it's not gonna come up now do I? Do I just talk about it, talk about it. Oh yeah, because I need to learn how to type, that's why if not I'll never be able to talk about some of these things. Um so let's play this one for, you can see what I'm talking about and then we'll come back and talk some more. Have you ever sat back and ask yourself that question, Who is in your corner? Well, that's what we're all about. On May the 18th at safety day 2021 presented by the A. C. F. S come to the event on May the 18th at the Rosen Plaza Hotel in Orlando florida. There will be world renowned speaker speaking about this. All important subject of who is in your corner when it comes to dealing with safety. If you want to learn on how to reduce risk houses aboard safety and be a health champion, this is the event for you. Don't miss out on this event available by the A. C. F. S. Now, the question that always comes up, it's, what are these events worth? What is the cost? What is it going to cost me? Well, it's not gonna be as much as some of the other events, you will get this great value for $30. Yes, you heard me correctly. $30 that's lunch, that's parking and that's even C. E. U's For $30. For more information, go to a cfs dot org, that's a cfs dot org and enjoy safety Day 2021 an in person event. So there you go. If you're going to be in the Orlando area, I would probably strongly recommend that you come hang out at safety Day if you are so inclined to do so. Um I will tell you price point wise, you're not going to be there for 30 bucks for everything that's included inside of their um I think Sam Goodman was the one that was going around and saying that when it was come, if you come and do you think about it that after you would pay everything that you would go to for normal price of a ticket to go to a conference. Even if you include the airfare, more than likely you end up being on the lower side of the equation. Just to think about as we do move forward about. Anyway, let's continue talking a little bit more talked about Pfizer. Anyway let's talk about this. One of Wisconsin man who punched his son To death over a piece of cheesecake, plead guilty to homicide on Friday Travis Steakhouse 30 was charged the 2nd 2nd degree of reckless homicide. Child abuse and child neglect in June 2019 death of his five year old son with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported. Uh he faces 37 years in prison. He is sentencing for the set, we're sentencing for next month. Uh so there you go. There you go. I don't know, I don't know. So hold on, how good is this freaking piece of cheesecake? Did you decide that all of a sudden killing your kids worth it? I mean, I don't know what the hell you think, you know Real quick. I mean that is just plain crazy. Anyway, 26 minutes past the top of the hour, we are starting off this lovely Monday. Uh moving forward. And so by the way, I haven't mentioned it in days and not because we were not here, but don't forget about this. That will lead you to that because this is so important. Um just in case you've forgotten about it, let's make sure that we continue to make certain things you know out there that we need to talk about. So here you go. Um, here you go. We made this little sign. I kept on seeing a lot of people posting on how they were speaking at safety events and I didn't want you to feel left out if you weren't. So if you're so inclined to do so you can do this, you can do this, you can turn around, turn around, turn around, turn around and scan that. Barcode, scan the QR code, that's right there. It will lead you to our website. That will take you to this page. It has a little video. If you don't watch the video doesn't make a lot of sense, but it will lead you to a video that you can get this lovely sign that says, I am not speaking at any safety conference are expo september 13th Through the 15th and I'm sure a lot of people who love me because of, you know if you post it on social media so there you go, I don't want you to feel left out. So there's a QR code for you to be able to hang see it and all that kind of fun stuff. I think that all those things will be readily important. Uh So there you go. By the way I have to tell you because I'm gonna put is this gonna be pressure? I don't think it will be pressure if they do it correctly. The A. C. F. S. Has a little app. I know they've been working on it on the background and you know we're about a week out at this point that if they do release it you will be able to meet up with people socially virtually prior to the event that's in person. So I think it's kind of cool. I think it's kind of a cool thing if they release it. I mean, I know we're eight days away. It probably should have not said anything about it. But you know how that goes sometimes? 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. Oops, Here is our main story on the right safety show. Okay, so let's talk, Let's talk, Let's talk This Morning a little bit about some of the craziness, some of the craziness that we don't, that we don't talk about. Hold on julie e Keaton. Uh, so there, so let's talk about the things that are important. Yeah. The things that are important. Are you thinking about this real quick? Because I want you to give it some thought what's most important? Yeah. What's most important when you wake up day in and day out and get ready to go to work or if you're going to bed because you just came back from work depending on whatever is going on. But when you get up and you start doing the things that you do, what do you deem to see to be the most important? What do you deem to be that thing that you can't do without? What do you deem to think that is so important that you can't do without anything else. And if you tell me a cup of coffee, I might vomit just in case. Um no sponsorship there for sure. But that's what I want you to think about for a moment. Think about all of the things that come up. I want you to think about all the things that are so important that you have to figure out at some point. What is most important? Is it getting ready in the morning? Is it going to the location? Is it getting everything ready to go? I don't know, I'm asking the question because I want to have a better understanding of it, but what is most important? Some people tend to forget what this portion of the conversation about, but here's what I think about. We kind of all have this ideology or ideas or values and all this other kind of fun stuff that we do move forward with and then we come about and think about some of these things and we don't apply them to all things of life. So when you go and accept a position for an employer, you are deeming that based on your time and based on what is going on. That money could be slightly important because hey, that's what we used to live. I mean, that makes sense to me. But that's important to you. You're willing to give up your time for money. So that's what's most important what you're doing. So also at this time we kind of make this agreement with our employer that we are accepting their money because we are willing to give X. I mean, think about it for a moment. What is untruthful about that statement? Really? Nothing. So what happens when it comes to morals and values? Do you feel from time to time that you have to give some of that away as part of your price point of what you're doing for work organization now? That's kind of an interesting one. So think about that for a moment, Do you ever have to give up your beliefs, your values, your morals for to do the work that you do? I'm asking it becomes an interesting conversation when you really start thinking about it at what time or at what point will you devalue what you're doing for money? So what's most important? And I know it becomes kind of odd and I know we've had several of these conversations and different variations and I I mean depending on on what you've heard, I could go very deep and in depth with some of this stuff and use some harsh language that some people have not liked because I have named it. Uh I have named it very similar to the most popular profession in the world. Okay, so think about this for a moment. So what are you doing? What is most important? Are you willing to give up, expert see? And if you are why are you willing to do so? I don't know what happens most of the time. Some people like these ideas that were doing all these things for the betterment of the community, but also what are you willing to give up? And I don't know because when I think about this, it becomes very confusing for me and don't get me wrong, I have had this moral issue as many have and when it comes to this conversation, because here's the gig. We all sell our time. To some extent. Some people value at X, some people value added, see it. Some people even get pissed off when they find out how much the value of somebody else's time is worth compared to what you were selling yours for. So what happens? So here's the gig. Do your safety standards, safety value, safety practices, organizational change values, organizational change practices? Are they valued at what you're looking for? Because you are selling your time to an extent, What is it worth now? We can sit here and talk all day about, Oh yes, you should have a primary job and you should have a side hustle and blah blah blah blah blah. And you've heard people tell you that throughout the years and yes, we talk about work life commitment, which that's understandable as well. So don't take that the wrong way. But at what point do you start putting value and at what time do you start putting money and at what time do you start putting standards higher than each other? Hopefully you never have to go through that. Hopefully you never have to really start thinking about any of that process. But if you do what happens, What happens when that portion in time comes about that you have to make the difficult one that you have to make the decision if the money is more important than what you are willing to sell, what if they're asking you to sell something that you're not willing to do? Think about it. You are essentially selling your time, your values, your morals all the time. So have you been asked to do something that you thought was unethical? Were you willing to commit to it? I'm not putting you in a bad spot. I'm just asking you to think about it. Definitely not asking for anybody to say, oh yes, that was me. Think about it. There's companies and organizations that ask for people to do stuff all the time that could be considered questionable. That could be considered, hey, it's one of those weird things in life that you probably shouldn't be doing. So I don't know. I think about this all the time. It comes up in conversations all the time and I don't know which is the correct answer. Because you have to sit there for about we go, is this ethically correct to do? Or is the money that's coming in more important? Mm interesting. And no one can ask that over and over again and drive themselves crazy at the end of the day, I always look at it this way. What is most important to you? Can you sleep with yourself and not in the way you're probably thinking there, but can you sleep with the choices that you've made? It becomes where you enter an interesting concept. Sometimes you have to put your money where your mouth is and sometimes you don't. That's the fun part. What happens is at the same time to as you can't sit and you can't talk and do all these things and say how you believe in ethics and believe in this. But at the portion that somebody is willing to offer you money for it, you're willing to change. And I've seen that happen throughout the years. It's interesting on how money can change people some good, some bad. I think it kind of just more like a magnifying glass, if you really think about it, just really magnified more than more of what you are. That
