Yeah. Friday on the Morning Show with Preston's Good On Preston, He's grant Allen the first today Proverbs three five and six. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding in all your ways. Acknowledge Him and he will make your make straight your paths. Boy, I want to go back to the beginning of that, lean not on your own understanding. Friends, he are living in uncharted waters except to God. God knows what's gonna happen, and he has a plan. So trust
in him. Don't rely on your understanding on things. You bring God into the picture, have him give you wisdom and discernment. It's gonna help and make a difference. Trust me it will. Ten minutes after the hour, take a peek inside the American Patriots Almanac and more. Next Friday, April twenty sixth, on The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Good Morning Show with
Preston Scott Show fifty one forty six of this radio program. Let's let's take a peek inside the American Patriots Almanac, showing fifteen ninety eight, an expedition led by Spanish explorer Juan Dia Natee reaches the rio ground. You could just you could make so many little snarky jokes right there. Sixteen oh seven English columnists come ashore at Cape Henry, Virginia, en route to founding Jamestown. Then we come to April twenty sixth, seventeen seventy seven. Sybil Luddington.
She made a not so famous ride. She mounted her horse on this date in seventeen seventy seven and rode through the countryside to alert militia forces and spread the alarm that the British were attacking Danbury, Connecticut. That's where the region's munitions and supplies were stockpiled. She rode more than twice the distance of Paul
Revere and was sixteen years old at the time. History barely says a word about sybyl But no, no, Here on the Morning Show we point out the historic ride of Sybil Luddington, sixteen years old, a heroine of the Revolutionary War seventeen seventy seven, right in the heart of it all. Sixteen crazy, absolutely crazy, and people don't know about it. But thankfully we
do thanks to a listener of this program. Eighteen sixty five Federal troops around and kill John Wilkes Booth, the assassin of Abraham Lincoln near Bowling Green, Virginia. Now think about this. This was roughly two weeks after the assassination. They found him. They found him, they wanted him alive. A lot of controversy there. Nineteen sixty one, the integrated circuit is patented by Robert Noise. His friends looked at him and said, Noise, noiseely done.
And it was on this date in nineteen ninety six that my dear daughter Courtney was born. And so a happy birthday to my daughter, Love you very much and looking forward to celebrating your day together later on. And so there you have it, my friends, this date in history. Now, this is a final reminder. Tomorrow Operation Medicine Cabinet. It's a medicine collection
event. It will take place from ten until two in Tallahassee. So if you're anywhere in the region and you have unused, old dated prescriptions, turn them in so they can properly be disposed of. There is a way to do it. A lot of people take that stuff and dissolve it in their toilet and flush it. Some we'll throw it down the sink. It's not advisable. It's not necessarily real good for the water table, and even with all the different processes, it's still not the best way to do it.
So the Costco on lannyap Way here in Tallahassee will be accepting them. They do not accept sharps medical waste thermometers, but they will accept all prescription medications. So that's again from ten am until two tomorrow afternoon when we come back Animal Stories an early edition get us started here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. In the wild or in our homes, We love them critters large and small. Time for another edition of Animal Stories on the Morning Show with
Preston Scott. Residents in Newbery County, South Carolina, learn this is why you listen to the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Even in South Carolina, they were calling the Sheriff's department this week because of the loud noises sounds like a siren, a whine, or a roar. Make it stop. It's the cicadas. We've been warning about the cicadas for quite some time now,
but people are calling the police in the Sheriff's office. Deputies are telling residents that yeah, the sounds can reach the noise level of a lawnmower motorcycle. But you know, we got two broods that are emerging at the same time. Nationally, Brood nineteen can be found from southern Iowa to Georgia South Carolina. Brewed thirteen will will emerge. The nineteen's on a thirteen year cycle.
Brewed thirteen's on a seventeen year cycle, so they're coed incighting. It starts in April and in the southern part of the United States, beginning in June in the more northern areas. So just hey, notify anybody that you know that there may be loud noises. It's the cicadas. But this is the mother of all animals stories. University of Strasbourg in France conducted a study to
find out why the European hamster population has decreased. Get this. They originally thought it might have something to do with pesticides and plowing in the industrial plowing of the area, but what they found was there's no evidence to support the pesticides on crops and so forth. Entering into the feed of the hamsters is the reason. Here's what this is going to be unbelievable. Now, hamsters eat grains and insects roots. But once industrial farming took over, hamster started
eating corn. And they studied the difference between corn, maize and wheat based diets on hamsters. They found they found that there was a notable difference. They plumped up. Oh no, oh no, no, no, not on the corn. They turned into cannibals on corn. That's wild. They they not just ate their young alive. They developed black tongues and began to
act like a bunch of maniacs. And what they found is that there's a B three deficiency inside the corn and that it affects the behavior of the hamsters, and that when they added B three to the corn diet, the hamsters behaved normally when they just ate the regular corn as it was nuts nuts,
So wheat diets just fine corn only. And what's interesting about this is that improperly cooked maize based diets have been associated with higher rates of homicide, suicide, and cannibalism in people in humans, so disturbing, right, could explain a lot. To be honest with you, the picture they used on this funest story, I mean, that's the cutest little hamster eating through a wall.
Is that what it is. It's awesome. Yeah, they're cute little guys, but they were eating their own they returned it into a bunch of hannibal lecters. Wow. So they have animal stories here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. All right, let me set the lineup for today. Leeway the gun Rider joins us next hour tons to talk about We've got Florida Man coming up next hour. In the third hour, it's What's the Beef Friday. We're gonna share our best and worst. And by the way,
I have a new best. I had a best picked out, but it got bumped out by activities yesterday that were shared with me. Well I don't know if that if the event happened, but it was shared with me and started go viral yesterday. So we'll do that as well as headlines from the b and more in the third hour, and of course your calls during What's the Beef. But first the big stories in the press box and they are
next here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott on News Radio one hundred point seven Double UFLA or on NewsRadio Double UFLA, Panama City dot Com celebrating my Green Bay Packers pick in the first round of the draft, Jordan Morgan in an offensive tackle that crazy numbers. We needed some offensive line depth and so I'm very, very pleased with that selection. He allowed two sacks in four hundred and fifty four pass blocking plays
last year. He's uh, he's got shorter arms, but he's a big boy. Six' five, three hundred some odd paths runs a five to second forty. It's just nuts. Anyway, six of the twelve first picks in the draft were quarterbacks, and it wasn't the most outstanding quarterback class from at least in my recent memory, right, Like Drake may third overall, Like they what yeah, I mean, I mean, no doubt he had a good career at North Carolina. Short, but there's no short career.
It's not like there was a year where it's like, oh man, quarterback heavy. I mean, there were a lot of quarterbacks, but it just doesn't really blow you off the page. I don't think like a JJ McCarthy really blows me, blows me out of the water. Even Caleb Williams, I'm yeah, I'm real. I mean, I'm thrilled because he's a Chicago Bear. I would have much I mean, I much prefer Chicago going with
Caleb Williamston staying with Justin Fields as a Green Bay Packer. Okay, Justin's gonna have I think I think he's landed in a really good spot for him. I think, so you know, he's gonna be under study for a year or two and then he's in Tomlin's loyal Yeah, he's he's gonna He's got a lot of tools. But I'm just generally kind of low on this quarterback class because I watched a lot of them in college, and I'm like, Okay, yeah, they had good careers. Jaji McCarthy's championship when he
quarterback, right, I know all these things. Yeah, it just it doesn't feel like like when Andrew Luck. I'm just trying to figure out at the Atlanta Falcons now for the agent of Kirk Cousins, who apparently is puzzled by the selection of Michael Pennix brother. Your man's got one hundred million dollars guaranteed, you're getting paid. Maybe Atlanta is learning a lesson from the Green Bay Packers. They're gonna let Panics sit behind Kirk Cousins for a few years.
Don't be worried, don't be puzzled. It's all good. Your man's guaranteed money. It doesn't matter what the Falcons do. Your boy's gonna get paid anyway. Big Stories in the press Box brought to you by Grove, a creative marketing and digital expertise paying attention to the arguments Supreme Court case Trump Trump arguing executive immunity. I'm gonna tell you here, I think Trump's gonna lose this. I don't think he can make the argument that he should have
basically absolute criminal immunity. I don't First, it's not constitutionally spelled out, It's long been debated. The questioning, even from Justice Thomas leaves, leaves a lot of doubt that Trump's going to prevail in this. I don't see this as being the right play myself. To me it, I would much rather argue what happened on January sixth, in my actions and how it was. It's been totally misrepresented, then to try to make it seem like I'm
throwing a hail Mary on presidential immunity. I personally think Trump's wrong when he says that if you don't have presidential immunity. You don't have a president. I disagree with that. But US economy grew at just one point six percent in the first quarter. It was supposed to be two point five. The economy is slowing down. Not just that, but as I have referenced of late, the report when it came out, promised, as I told you
it would, that inflation is up. The first quarter of twenty twenty four, it jumped up three point one percent. It was one point nine percent in the last quarter of twenty twenty three. So it's accelerating again. Not good. Not good when you combine the fact that the the economy is shrinking back, the growth is not growing as expected, it's below what's expected, and inflation is higher than expected. First of all, it tells you these
analysts it's all wishful thinking. The reality of the economy speaks for itself. The math does not lie. And then here's here's another harbinger. Tesla's laying off twenty six hundred and eighty eight jobs on June fourteenth. More jobs being lost. And again we just you go ahead and try to believe the government numbers. But when you dig into the raw, real numbers of everything that's going on. Things stink and for one reason. Oh, Biden, there
you go. Forty minutes after the hour, come back with more here in the Morning Show with Preston Scott with the Morning Show Preston Scott. A little backtrack here, I will say this for the Bears, you've got some receivers between Keenan Allen coming over and your tight end kid from Notre Dame. All of a sudden, I've my mind's gone blank anyway, and then DJ Moore and then you Romaduze from Washington. Yeah, and then DeAndre Swift came from
the Eagles running back. Got some skill around him, we'll see. Speaking of the NC double A, more than four hundred current and former Olympic, professional, and collegiate athletes signed a letter urging the NC two A to not ban transgender athletes from women's sports. The letter states, oh, and separate letters were sent by three hundred academics and one hundred advocacy groups. First of all, how sad that we have one hundred plus advocacy groups believing in helping
people continue down the path of mental illness. That's just that's sick to me. But anyway, here's the letter to deny transgender athletes the fundamental right to be who they are, to access the sport they love, and to receive the proven mental and physical health benefit sport of sport goes against the very principles of the NCAA's constitution. By barring transgender athletes, you would be severely limiting
the capacity of your member institutions to protect and support their athletes. Moreover, you would be actively disparaging transgender athletes, the same athletes you chose to protect when you agreed to serve on the Board of governors. Honestly, there aren't many issues that spell out the difference between just you've lost your mind and common sense than this one. This really this, and it may be why intuitively, I've just spent so much time on this issue, because this just distills
the differences immediately. If I'm if I'm talking to somebody that believes transgenders ought to be compete again, ought to be able to compete in the sport that's opposite of their biology, I'm ending that conversation there is nothing to talk about. They're mentally ill. If you believe that that's that's appropriate, you're just not You're just not right. I wish I could be more charitable than that, but you're not. You're not right, and I mean not right mentally.
You're obviously not right on the issue. Interesting to see A bunch of the NCAAA women's basketball coaches were asked about this whole transgender thing in the wake of the comments made by the South Carolina coach Don Staley. Lisa Blueter Iowa no comment. Corey Close UCLA formerly with FSU, no comment. Krod Laws and Duke no comment, Nikki Colin Baylor no comment. J R. Payne Colorado no comment. Vick Schaeffer Texas no comment. Lindsay gottlieb USC no comment.
Kim Mulkey You LSU no comment, Gino Arima Yukon no comment, nil Ivy Notre Dame no comment. Tera Van Derveer now retired, Kate Payne Stanford no comment. Wes Moore North Carolina State no comment, Terry Morin Indiana no comment, Scott Rooke, Oregon State no comment, Lisa forty eight Gonzaga no comment. They will not answer the question. This is pathetic. They're hoping, These coaches are hoping the NCAA just does the right thing and gets them
out of this. That's why they're not saying anything. They don't want to be in the crosshairs. They do not want to be victims of the mean, evil venom of the transgender movement. And while I could easily say I don't blame him, nah, No, there's something bigger at work here. Forty six minutes forty seven passed the hour in the Morning Show with Preston Scott Preston Scott, My News Radio, one hundred point seven UFLA for your information.
A couple little, few little nuggets here. I've got to pull my calendar out the This is this is the super secret booking calendar of the Morning Show with Preston Scott. These are highly guarded booking calendars for the radio program, highly classified document. I've got it ready. I'm gonna share something in a moment. I thought it would be good to know the aid package ninety
five billion dollars that we're borrowing from China to get. Just for a second, I'm going to borrow fifty bucks from Grant so I can give it to somebody else. Wait a minute, wait, wait, wait, So I'm going to take on a debt and when you think of it, in these terms. It really speaks to how dumb we are. Right now, I'm borrowing fifty bucks from Grant so I can give it to this guy over here, so I incur the debt, and what you think we're going to get
paid back by Ukraine? Ukraine? Ukraine feels like, hey, we've been paying Joe. What do you mean anyway? Florida Senators Rick Scott, Mark or Rubio voted against it. They at least hung in there. The only member of Florida's House Caucus, Florida's House delegation that voted in favor of funding Ukraine was Neil Donne. I've congratulated him on votes that I thought he did
a great job holding strong. I'm going to point out to you and let you be aware that he was the only member of Florida's congressional delegation in the House that voted to fund Ukraine, the only one, Stott, I'd let you know, at least of Republicans Florida taking the lead in DEI cracking down on all the all that nonsense. It has resulted in schools ending their diversity
programs. That's good, But more importantly, it's leading the nation, not just here in Florida, but now Texas, Utah, Alabama, Tennessee, North Dakota, South Dakota have all passed legislation tackling DEI, not necessarily to the same degree that we have, but it's steps in that direction. Several other states have proposals, including Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, West Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Maine. Virginia's on the edge. They're close. So that's a big win. That's it. That's see, we lead free state of Florida. Awesome. And then lastly, Richard wrote in asked us to explain how the media has come to where it is. We have an expert, Richard. This is for you, brother.
I think it's a great topic. So May the eighth, Wednesday, May eighth, we will be tackling that topic with Rob Bluey, who is the editor of the Daily Signal, which is the news outlet for the Heritage Foundation. He'll offer us a historical perspective and we'll kind of talk through how it all happened. In that show. All right, we come back, Lee Williams The Gun Writer joins us next on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Let's do this second hour of the Morning Show with Prestin Scott's Show fifty
one forty six. He's Grant Allen. I'm Preston, Friday, April twenty sixth. Great to be with you, friends, ruminators, wherever however you listen to us. Thank you so much for sharing time. We do our very best to not let you down and deliver things to you that you need to know, and we bring guests that we think are worthy of your time. And so we segue to a visit that we do monthly. He's kind
enough to carve out time for us. He is the gun Writer. If you go to the website Thegunwriter dot substack dot com, you will find the work of Lee Williams. Lee, good morning, Welcome, how are you, Good morning, how are you doing? Thanks for the inviting As always, Man, I appreciate so much the work you're doing to stay vigilant and
keep us vigilant as it relates to our Second Amendment rights. And Lee, I gotta tell you what I thought was, I don't know, how do you find something encouraging in a case where someone lost their life, but all of a sudden things at Arkansas have taken a weird, almost dark turn. Tell us the latest, Yeah, we reported. I think we wrote five
stories in total this month on the March nineteen killing of Brian Melanowski. He was the airport executive director there in Little Rock, and the first thing to come out was a statement from his family which said what everybody already knew. He was defending himself. He didn't know he was shooting at federal agents. And his attorney said something in that statement too that a lot of people have missed. I don't like talking about what Brian was accused of doing by the
ATF because he's not here to defend himself. But let's say for a minute that he was guilty of everything ATF said. Of selling firearms without a federal firearms license, he would have gotten probation or probably some type type of diversion program pre trial diversion. He never would have seen the inside of a prison, brother, and that to me is damning for that serious and finger quotes
of a crime. He was shot and killed right after that. April seventeenth, the Attorney General of Arkansas, Tim Griffin, demanded to see bodycam footage from ATF. But then a week later the Senators Cotton and Boozman, a couple of Republicans from Arkansas, but out of statement they'd talked to ATF. And this is going to be difficult for your listeners to believe. ATF agents when they hit the home, none of them were wearing body cams. There
is no bodycam footage. Policy says they're supposed to have them. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, And that type of encounter is exactly what body cams were invented for. You're going to go into a mant how and judge has given you a warrant to violate his Fourth Amendment rights. There's a possibility they were
going to use for us, and none of them wore a bodycam. The only video footage was from that raid was from Brian's ring camera, which is about two seconds long, right before an HTF agent covers that camera with a piece of tape. It's shocking, it's stunning. They went in there knowing full well that they didn't have that serious of a charge. If they hit him with ten car loads of agents and shot him in the head. He died two days later. Then, once he had spoken out now the Arkansas
Attorney General Tim Griffin again his mum, he's suddenly mum. I sent him fifteen questions man that I wanted answers for his handler wouldn't allow him to be interviewed. He said he wasn't available for an interview or a video conference interview or an interview over the phone, which is odd because I never told his handler when I wanted to interview. I guess he's just not available for me.
The most important question I sent him was whether or not the Attorney General there had been in contact with the US Attorney and maybe try and work out some type of moratorium on these deadly EHTF raids until the questions could be answered on the March nineteenth killing. But no, he didn't respond to that. Lee, stand by, We're going to pick up right there because there's a bunch of questions I've got for you. We talked about this case on the
program before with Lee. We've talked about it subsequent on the show. This is a horrifying development, and what's happened in the time since the shooting is not making anything better. Ten minutes after the hour, Lee Williams, the gun rider on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. The Morning Show with Preston Scott on News Radio one hun point seven w f LA. We're trying to make sense of it all. Website Thegunwriter dot substack dot com. The emails
are brilliant. You'll get them as articles come out, which is usually once or twice a week. And Lee Williams, the Writer, is with us. Lee the next steps from your perspective as a reporter, what are they? I've got a story coming out probably Monday on these ATF Special Response Teams as they call them, and we are comparing them not to other federal law enforcement agencies that have special response units and some military special response units. And
let me just say this. You know, if you want to be a member of the Secret Service Counter Assault Team, that's a ten week course. Their sniper courses even longer. War Tax the border patrols tactically in a bore tach you know, the one that took out that shooter down at Uvaldi and the one that caught that flee that guy who escaped from prison. Theirs is
a massively long training course. And of course you've got Delta which is six months long, Debrew which is six months long, MARSK Marine Raiders nine month program. How long do you think atf Special Response Team training is. Let me ask you a question. I would say, I mean, you've set me up here, and the way this is going tells me it's less than a month. Two weeks, bro, That's what I was going to guess. Yep. Yeah, And they still call themselves operators when they're done.
They call themselves operators in their literature that describes these unit. Let me tell you they're not operators. Operators use worse with surgical precision. These guys bootdoors and shoot homeowners in the head. So we're taking a hard look at this unit. It's leadership, it's selection, it's training weapons to get to get it out there. This unit scares me. Preston the fact that they're out there and you know they target this God forbid A lobbying gun under sells a
firearm easy to get on their radar, is what I'm saying. And just just to put some context to this story, the guy who's running this airport, he's a he's he's just a he sells guns. How often? I mean, what do we know about his gun selling? He's fifty three years old, he makes two hundred and fifty thousd He made two hundred fifty thousand dollars a year at the airport. He would go to gun shows and rent tables and sell guns and coins. He was He's a massive coin collector too.
I one of his customers called me and told me that he had really helped him out getting him some coins. So you see tables like this at every gun show you go to. Now, have a couple of guns, doesn't have an FFL, will sell them. But you know the way ATF made him sound in their search for' appiday it is he's supplying guns to ISIS and l CATA. Not really the case here, bro, and Arkansas law gives a tremendous amount of freedom to people selling guns. If I'm not mistaken,
No, you're correct, one hundred percent. It's a private sale. You can sell a gun. But ATF, of course wants to change the definition of gun dealers right now. They've got more rules out there that just were published on this confusing crap whether or not you need an FFL. It sounds like from some people who have read it that if you sell a gun for profit, you may you may need to get an FFL. Of course, the Second Amendment Foundation for which I work and all other program groups are
going to sue the hell out of ATF and will win. It's just Biden and the people that handle him flexing on gun owners again. Tell me this, Do you suspect that or think that there's going to be a freedom of information requests on your part to try to get whether there was any correspondence between the United States Department of Justice in any form and the Attorney General for Arkansas. I never talk about what I'm gonna foy you usually, but yes,
the problem with when you foy a ATF. I just got a response the other day from damn near three years ago. So they take their time. It's it's unfortunate they're not. They're the most opaque. They are non transparent
at all, the most opaque federal law enforcement agency. And I'm getting sick of you even calling them a law enforcement agency, because federal law enforcement acies don't behave like this at any At some point, you got to think that some of these ATF agents have got to say, guys, what we're doing
is wrong. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, I mean, if you're an ATF agent right now, and you're kicking down doors and going in with fully automatic m fours made by Heckler and Cox and shooting homeowners in the head who have not committed any crimes, no criminal record. You know, you better take a look in the mirror decide whether or not you're on the right team here. Yeah. I mean, we're talking about a guy that had a professional job that they could go see anytime Monday through Friday, right right.
What I would have done, And you know, I've talked to so many people, a lot of technical guys. You know, ring the doorbell, wait till he comes down and answers it he sees everybody there in uniform, or do a call out, call him on a cell phone, come out with your hands up, or turn all the emergency lights on him. They had ten vehicles there, This entire neighborhood would have been bathed in red light. He would have known it was the police. Instead they boot the door,
go in and shoot him. Wow, all right, we got another case to talk about. I want to get lead away in on that's next here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. One final segment with Lee Williams, the gun Rider and again the website the Gunriter substack dot com. Lee, I wanted to get your thoughts. We've talked about this story. It's the story of a software engineer that ended up in a New York courtroom, and his crime was legally obtaining parts to guns and making his own guns.
He wasn't I mean, he's never been convicted of any crime. He's a software engineer or something. And now he's sitting Dexter Taylor's sitting at Riker's waiting a sentence. Yeah, Dexter Taylor is a martyr in my humble opinion. He discovered the world of gunsmithing years ago and he enjoyed doing it. And he was purchasing parts and components legally from various online companies. I know a polymer eighty and eighty percent arms have sent me kits to put together. Brother,
It's a great time I enjoyed. I put together two glock clones, had the time of my life. Took me a lot longer than it should have, but it is fun. So However, a joint atf NYPD task force discovered that he was buying these parts illegally, may hit his home. He's charged with pretty much everything criminal possession of a loaded weapon, four counts of third degree criminal possession of a weapon, five counts of criminal possession of
a firearm second degree, blah blah blah. So he gets convicted of all this. Of course, he's sitting in rikers. He'll be sentenced next month. He's looking at ten to eighteen years because his Second Amendment rights were violated. Like, you can't believe the judge in this case actually said Judge Abina Darkness said in an open courtroom, do not bring the Second Amendment into this courtroom. It doesn't exist here, So you can't argue Second Amendment. This
is New York Appeal much. I mean, she's insane, She's clearly insane. The Second Amend and it shouldn't. Your Second Amendment right shouldn't be dependent upon your zip code. Illegal for him there, not illegal for us here in the free state of Florida. What's so striking to me is not just the conduct of the judge and how she handled every part of the defense, from the opening statements to the concluding statements, interruptions, rulings that were just
just ridiculous. But the Supreme Court lee correct me if I'm wrong. Didn't the Supreme Court just slap New York in the face. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. The Second Amendments Foundation is going to the Supreme Court. We have been granted associary over Biden's and ATF Frame and Receiver rule, which basically is their goat what Joe Biden likes to call ghost guns, and he wants to make them all illegal. Americans have been making firearms in their home legally since
before there was the United States of America. And we're going to pound the hell out of ATF and the Biden Harris administration and because of this, because of this nonsense. But what's insulting to me Lee is New York Rifle and Pistol Association versus Bruin. They prevailed the United States Supreme Court. Want,
I mean, they won. How is this even happening? We're seeing in all these Blue states what I call post Brewin tantrum laws, where they're making decisions and passing legislation knowing full well it's unconstitutional and flies in the face of the Supreme Court's Bruin decision, but they do it anyway because they know we're going to have to sue and we're going to have to spend our members' money.
Thank god, we have such good members and Gun Owners of America and NRA and National Associating, National Association and Gun Rights are going to spend all of their money. It's law there, man. They're trying to break us financially, but we're going to keep doing it. Good for you, Lee, thank you as always for the time. I appreciate it very much, and we'll visit again next month. Sounds great. Thanks for the invite. Brother takes care. Thank you, sir, Lee Williams. He's the Gun

limbering up your voice and get ready. What's to be Friday in thirty minutes. So whatever you want to get off your chest, we're here for you and we'll open up the phone lines in a little while. Some of you might be thinking, do you do you really just open up the phone lines. Oh yeah, it's a massive breaker. Switch opens up the whole lot of them. It's like that sound you hear in Ghostbusters when they fire up the ghost containment tank. It's the anyway that comes up in a little bit
Florida Man in a few minutes. But first, the big stories in the press box brought to you by Grove, a creative marketing and digital expertise. So Tesla's laying off almost twenty seven hundred workers in June. Now there's two things to that. Number One, look, Elon's doing what he's got to do. And that's something everyone needs to understand. Business owners, business organizations will do whatever they have to do to protect their margins. That's how it
works. As a result of regulatory pressures, in the case of Tesla, as a result of a decline in people buying evs because the word is out, the truth is out. You literally have to be living under a rock. And I think here's what is unknown by all of us, how much of an impact EV owners are to all of this and the people they talk to. I don't hear a bunch of EV owners saying, oh, man,
you gotta do this, this is incredible. They might do it for the first week of owning their vehicle, but then that first charge problem comes when they're waiting and they're waiting, and they're waiting on the road, and then while they're charging, they're waiting and they're waiting and they say, boy, damn boy, this takes a lot longer than I thought. And then they try to make a trip and they can't. They try to tow something
and they can't. It's cold weather and it won't go. I mean, the list goes on and on, and then the stories are going to start creeping out by the end of this decade of what happens when they try to sell or when they have to get new batteries. Those stories haven't really hit yet. We've had them from the first wave of evs, where for example,
with certain Forward products, they don't even make the battery anymore. They literally don't make the batteries, and you need new batteries and they don't make them. You don't have an option, and it's not like you can go to Batteries Plus or the battery source or whatever. The store might be that specializes in batteries and go pick one up, because they're not worth it for any of these other battery manufacturers to invest in. It just isn't just saying
we're not even at the beginning of the pushback on this. This is gonna be. This is gonna be fascinating to watch stocks yesterday tanked before clawing their way back to a small positive day when the first quarter GDP report came out short version. The GDP is much less than was expected, and inflation is much greater than was expected, almost double oops oops. And President Trump seeking immunity from the United States Supreme Court. I don't think he's going to get
it. I think it's a bad argument. Look, I'm not I refuse to be in the tank for anybody about anything. I've told you when I think Trump is being prosecuted unfairly. I've told you when I think he makes great policy decisions, or when he makes bad policy decisions, and same thing for anybody else out there. I think I'm very fair minded when it comes to this stuff. I think his argument's bad. I think it's a bad case to argue from any lens whatsoever. And I think he's going to lose.
He's better off just argue the case because the truth of January sixth speaks for itself forty and he would do very well on appeal if convicted. Florida Man next, but the Morning Show, Preston Scott, Oh yeah, come on, everybody sing a little bit. Well, if you read something insane, I probably did it. I'm find of food of the blocks. Going ahead and google my name. Now that is some men to the sins I have committed and we all feel a better way. We have somebody whatever to
make. Yeah, two stories here. Dakota Jones. First of all, how awesome is that name? That would be the greatest name in the world for a spin off to Indiana Jones his great nephew Dakota Dakota Jones. Anyway, Dakota Jones and Kira Enders a couple from the Funiac Springs. You always love a story that starts with According to the Escambia County Ship, they took two pieces of a five hundred times the cash lottery ticket they're scratch off tickets
to create a single winning ticket. Each of the tickets were ripped horizontally, then carefully pieced together to become one fraudulently altered ticket using the top half of one actual ticket and the bottom half of another actual ticket. And then they made the call because the convenience stores scanned it and they said, it's just not scanning like it's a winner. It's not scanning properly. So they reached out to the Florida Lottery and set up a meeting with somebody, and they
were in fact meeting with a special agent. The report is that they they made up this incredibly deep story of finding the tickets, and they were it was raining, and they got wet, and they tore and they they did their best to piece it back together. And when someone uh with the lottery informant said the backside doesn't match, Kira goes what foiled by not reading the
back of the writing on the on the lottery tickets. So they have been they've been arrested, facing multiple felonies after forging a one million dollar lottery scratch off ticket. I mean, people, these these tickets have security protocols in them that prevent this kind of thing. You're not going to tear two carts and a half tape them together. But this is maybe my best This is
one of my This is just a Florida man's story. Through and through Port Orange neighbors talking about a guy wearing sunglasses at night firing off a gun. So police were called classic move. At the moment that the police arrived, a shot rang out. You see what I mean, said the neighbor. Police followed the sound of the suspect, Brett McPeak, out in front of his resident residents woman can be heard saying that's him. I'm telling you.
Officers direct McPeek to show him his hands, stay where he is, quoting, I'm cracking this beer, okay. Officer asked McPhee if he has any firearms. He said no. The officer said of their firearms inside the house, he said yes. Speaking over the radio, officer says McPeak has two beers in his hand. This beer is cold, sir, I want to drink it. Come check me, the officer declined. McPeak then says, well, I'm gonna drink this beer. Is that cool? It sists he
did nothing wrong, complies with his orders and arrested without incident. He is he was not in possession, but they did find two handguns, one with a thirty eight Special where they spent showcasing and yeah, so he's facing multiple charges, but I mean, you gotta love a guy. I'm cracking this beer, okay, that man waiting for arrest. That man was not destined to live in the suburbs. He was destined to live out where the green grass grows. Florida man free. Yeah, yeah, that's where he needs
to be. There you go, That, my friends, is an epic example of Florida man. Forty seven minutes after the hour, we'll get you ready for what's the beef next? The Morning Show with Preston Scott on US Radio one hundred point seven double USLA or on Usradio doubfla patamaa sty dot com. I'd play the audio, but it's just not good enough. I couldn't
clean it up enough to make it really arable. But what did I tell you about the likelihood that most of these people protesting on these college campuses had any clue what they were protesting about, refresher, I said, they don't. They don't have an idea. They probably couldn't even point to where the land in question is located on a map. They're showing up, And so a guy shows up and interviews him and says, tell me about this protest.
Why are you here? We're protesting for the Palestinians, Okay, and why because we're supporting their cause? And that is I don't know. I really I wish I was more educated. Person after person, no clue. Trust me when I tell you there are some protesters on these college campuses that are in this country that why are they here when they hate this country? I don't know. You can, you can, You can probably take a pretty good guess that they might not be here to shall we say, blend
in with the culture, to be part of the melting pot. In fact, it's kind of interesting how the the whole diversity movement blows up the entire
point of America to borrow the whole thing melting pot. The idea, the point of America was that people from all these different kinds of places around the world could come and be melted down and lose their individual identity in a large, broad sense, not as a person, not with different skills and talents and wants and wishes, but broadly and then be melted together to take on the identity of the whole i e. A common language. See, when
we took the pressure off of people to learn the language. It was the beginning of this end This is where we ended up. We ended up with a group of people that are here in this country that sort of kind of almost hate us. And then you can fairly question, are they here to undermine us? Well, yeah, maybe kind of sort of a huh. And so the whole point of diversity is to do away with the melting pot. One of the ways you force the melting pot back into existence is you
require people to speak the language. You require people to assimilate, not just for the broader, larger value use oriented implications, but because it helps them financially with their life. They can talk, they can communicate, It opens the door to many more jobs. So these interviews are showing that a bunch of the snowflakes have no idea why they're there. They don't they have no clue. They're totally clueless. It's the social thing to do. It's the
cause. It's the rallying for the cause. It's a lot like what BLM was all about. They missed out on the sixties, so they're going to just try to create another movement based on racism. Blah blah blah blah, blah. All right, it's what's to be Friday. We've had what we've had to say, Well, we've wanted to say all week long. For the most part, there's some things we didn't get to. So now it's your turn. Eight five zero two zero five WFLA eight five zero two zero
five ninety three point fifty two. What do you want to complain about? They are open. We have one line open, and that line can be yours. I'm not sure why we have one line open, but we do so take advantage. If you are a first time or this is your day fate has smiled upon you. There is space right now. That is your chance. That line is your chance to feel just a little bit better. The thing that's been just driving you crazy. Maybe it's the roundabout, Maybe
it's the potholes, maybe it's fill in the blank. That's why we do this. It's what's the beef Friday. If it matters to you, it matters to us. Complain about whatever you want by calling eight five zero two zero five WSLA eight five zero two zero five ninety three fifty two. There is the phone number. We have two simple rules. Number one, do not use profanity. We have proven for twenty three years that you can do a program like this and make it safe most every time, I mean every
now and then, it safe for kids. As a result, we now have kids that have grown up in the backseat listening to this show and now listen on their own. Think of it as an investment in your child's future to be listening to this program. So no profanity and don't make it personal. If you have a bad experience at a business, tell us what happened. You'll feel better, but leave the name of the business out of it. We don't want to hurt just because someone had a bad day. So
we go to the phone lines. George, good morning, Welcome, what's the beef? Good morning? First beef is with these ignorant twits protesting on these campuses. Uh, this is not a just a spreading. This is well planned. The Care group is sponsoring this. It's a terrorist organization. Soros is funding this. Harvard and Colombia each get over a billion dollars a
year from the federal government. All the all the Feds have to do is stop all the funding and treat care in these groups is a terrorist organization and it'll stop. But the thing that it gets me is press. And think about this. Just close your eyes and think about this. If these Jewish students that are being protested against and scared and you know, and and and
going through this, we're black. What would the media and what would be the the uh, the outlook from Washington and from politicians be if the Jewish students were black. Think about what would happen. What if the mask students instead of instead of wearing masks pretending there's some some Palestinian supporters, they really aren't. They don't know what they're talking about. What if they were the Klan wearing hoods and you're right, and it was black students being terrorized exactly,
you'd see such a three sixty that it wouldn't even be funny. And it needs to They need to be dealt with. They need to be kicked out of school. And these the organizations that sponsoring it is a terrorist organization. They get funding from Mamas and they get funding from SOURUS and like I say, the FETs can go in and take away the funding from these schools. All right, George, I gotta roll on, buddy, Thank you very much. And by the way, we want them to do a one
eighty. They did a three sixty, they'd be right back where they were, which, of course, would be entirely possible for the federal government. Tim, you are up. What's the beef? Good morning. My beef is I'm a traveler and stay in mottills at least four or five days a week. Wow, And they will not allow me to set the AC down to a comfortable level. The most they can get out of a motel room is probably about sixty seven degrees and you put a thermometer in there and it
will be seventy two. And I'm talking about paying good money. And this is actually not high end motels, but I mean, and it's a change. So you're Hilton, your IHG. They all do it, really, and the motels. And so the clerk told me one time that if it does not sense any movement from that AC, it turns AC off and then you wake up in a pool of sweat. And that's my beat. Thank you, Tim. I don't blame you if that's happening to you. I've
never experienced that. But if they're putting motion sensors in a hotel room where you're going to be sleeping soundly, that's stupid. Wow. All right, we've got two lines open now one eight five zero two zero five WFLA JR. Gerald, you are next. It's what's the b Friday? Here in the Morning Show with Preston Scott. And this is the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Eleven minutes after the hour, Good neb you with us here on the Morning Show. Back to the phone lines, we go to Jr.
Who has been patiently waiting. Good morning, sir, welcome, what's the beef? Good morning Sunday. I went into my local coffee shop to get a cup of coffee. And the people they have always been friendly and welcoming and so forth. And I went to my coffee and laid my money on the counter to pay for it. And the young man behind the counter said asked me if I'd put the money directly into his hand, otherwise he would feel offended and disrespected. Now this is a second time this has happened to
mantels that I said, well up on them. Not gonna be the days like that. And I took my money and left. And I just think the next thing they'll be asking you to roll over and play dead, or sit up and bank or something I've never had an incident where I mean, I've never been in a situation where I told people that I would feel disrespected if they didn't put their payment directly into my hand. I'll take you were
who's looking to be offended. Wait a minute, Wait a minute, you were actually told to put money into somebody's hand or they would feel offended? Absolutely? Oh my goodness, And this is the second time that has happened to Mantela asked me, So I'm thinking this is this little spreading thing. How old was the worker? Oh, they were probably he was probably twenty. I would yes, I don't wow. Same establishment. Did it happened
at the same place? No, different establishment, different places. I actually call the supervisor the next morning to discuss this, and she said, well, let me let me look into it and get I'll, you know, call me back at the same time tomorrow and we'll talk about it. Well. I called back the same time the time that she told me, and uh, and nobody answered. And I called twice and nobody answered itself, Like, I have my answer, but I would just urge people not to
cave into this. And you know, I have my answer. And the donuts and coffee are not that good as far as I'm conseruing. So it's this I'd hate to see the spread though. Thank you, Jay. I appreciate the phone call. Wow. Let's go to Gerald. Gerald, you're up. What's the beats? Hi? Good morning. I want you to know that I concur with everything that everybody said. The problem with these snowflakes improper toilet training, that's the problem. So everything that they have no idea
what they're doing. Is that your beef? Yeah, for the most part, gotcha, Gerald, Thanks very much. I appreciate it. Let's go to John. Hi, John, you're up. What's the beef? Yeah. I always love to watch the NFL Draft on TV, and the main reason I like to watch it is the city's outlandish, hideous threats the brothers little when they walk up on the stage. But last night think it seemed rather subdued as compared to the last few years. What's going on with that?
Well, I can't tell you because I didn't watch any of it last night. I was already in bed because it started at eight o'clock and my bedtime at the latest of seven point thirty. Unless something unusual is going on and I feel compelled that I've got to stay up a little longer. So I don't know, Grant, did you watch any of it last night? Caught in not a second? Yeah, I don't. I don't know,
John, I do know what you're talking about. I did see some of the prelims where they were just showing shots of the guys in the you know, kind of the waiting area adjacent to the stage that that were predicted to be first round picks, and uh, and yeah, you're right, it seemed a little subdued. It's, you know, hey, it's their night whatever. I mean, I guess it's sort of like a very high end prom because you're getting paid some big time money if you're walking out on that
stage on the first night. But but yeah, thanks very much, Pedro, thanks for calling in. What's the beef, Brning Preston, That was quick. Yeah. So my beef is with the riots, like you have mentioned before. And remember I remember how I will do all they called Trump a fascist and all these Nazi names and slogans that they would use against Trump, and and look how the tight turns. I mean it, it's like always the the left, it's always protecting anything that they accused you of.
Is either they're doing it at the moment or they're planning it or doing it in six months from now. You'll see that that's what they've been doing all alone. So yeah, for any Jewish listeners out there, they're coming for you. That we told you so. Who are the real fascists there? It is? Thank you very much, Pedro, appreciate it. We got lines open. One segment of therapy to go, but the lines are wide open. Eight five zero two zero five to b FLA. You can call
now eight five zero two zero five ninety three fifty two. All right, we've lost our college here, so call again if you were on hold. We're not sure if the line's just dropped or what happened, but let's give it a try. Strange things happen. I will grant you that it is. What's the be Friday here in the Morning Show with Preston Scott, and we do have wide open lines. Let me just see something here. Yeah,
that one's working. Okay, so maybe we inadvertently dropped them, don't know, but call in please eight five zero two zero five to b FLA. But make it quick because we will run out of time real fast. Hey, I'm getting some a little. I got a note from a listener, always a deep thinker, taking a little issue with my conversation with Lee Williams, believing that we are misrepresenting the stories that we talked about. I completely disagree. If you really listen to what we had to say, I
completely disagree. Now if you only hear half of what we say, if you're not fully engaged in what we're talking about, which happens routinely. I mean, it does happen. People do different things. But I would caution you this is maybe a beef of mine. I would caution you to write
an accusatory note without being sure of what was said or not said. The accusation was we only told whole half of a story, not the whole story, and that the two people that were victims in this we're guilty of And well, I would say that you have no idea that they're guilty of anything, because the one never got a day court, he got shot and killed. The other was not allowed to present a fair defense. So I completely disagree. But you're always welcome to rite Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. That
is Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, Nathan, thanks for calling in. What's the beef? Good morning, a weather beef. Yeah, not that big a news, but when you watch the news and they talk about the flooding and they have a twenty year old person on the news. Now, oh, I've never seen the water here before. Well, the water was on West Tennessee Street, just like it was in the nineties, and it was the same floodwater we had a
while back. So all the holding ponds they've been holding and making over here on the Temple Circle, we still have the same floods. They're not working. Yeah, well the same water. So whatever the holding ponds are holding there is good for the holding pond, but it's not stopping the flooding, right. Yeah. It can only absorb so much so fast. You can only mitigate so much. Nathan, Thanks very much. I appreciate the phone call. Let's go to Tracy. Hi, Tracy, you're up. What's
the beef? Hi? I was listening and I heard the man talk about how the young man demanded him to put the money in his hand. Yeah, and I was thinking of when that happened to me. And the woman was an older woman, and she explained to me that that was a part of something that was going on right after the Civil Rights movement, when you had African Americans working in stores that have previously been only why and the people would come in and they would refuse to put the money in their hands.
And so maybe in this highly charged culture that bran now being easily offended and just having the pandemic and people not touching each other anymore. Maybe the young man heard that story from his mother or grandmother or read about it and decided to take event. You know. And you know what, it's interesting because you use a term I've always talked about a lot. We choose to be offended, don't we? We do you have to take it? Yeah? You know what I mean. I think that we look for offence sometimes.
Hey, Tracy, thanks very much for sharing that. I appreciate the perspective, and that may be the answer automatically. Obviously, I didn't ask about the ethnicity of the person. You know. I'm I lived my life without paying attention to such things. But sadly I'm kind of one a few this day and age of racially charged civil society. John, you're up, what's the beef? I hate to jump on the vandwagon. But I'm also one of those that went into the store over there on Blairstone Road. And if
you don't put the money right in his hand, he won't. He says the same thing. You're dis respecting me. I just can't. I can't believe it. I just I wasn't even I was going to put the money in his hand till he said that. I just took my money and limped. Yeah, I suppose that would be a phone call that I would make. And that's just nonsense. If you want to put the money in their hand, do it. If they're demanding it, I won't either, right,
you know. Really, all I did was I laid it down and I was continuing to count my money, right, And then he started telling me that as I was counting my money, I just looked at him, took my money, walked out, John, Thanks very much. I appreciate the phone call. Yeah, boy, seems like it's a thing. It's too bad. Final call here is Anthony? Anthony? You are up, brother? What's the beef? The right needs to start acting like the left?
No, yes, y, just do things, you know, get in power and just do things and wait till the court says no, you can't do that, then continue doing in anyway. I mean, look, it's a lone thing. Oh I can't do this, but oh look I snuck it in. Oh I'm gonna do it again. I've been told not to, but I'm going to keep doing it. I said, we act like them. At some point, either they stop or we get our way.
You know. It's so what's so interesting about your comment. There's a ton of people that agree with you, and on a certain level, I do too. But I hate myself for doing it because I just believe there's a I believe I will stand account before God for my choices, and so will they. But I hear you. You can't be the one who only follows the rules when the rules are being changed and broken by the other team, because you will never win. Fair Enough, Anthony, you have the
last word? Is that gonna make it as the best and worst of the week? Is it going to be both? Is that the best of the week or is that the worst of the week? Is it neither? We're going to come back and share our best and worst of the week next. Thanks for your calls. What's to be Friday? Now over on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott. All
Right, I got an APB here. First of all, our thanks to Grove, a creative marketing and digital expertise, our sponsor the big stories in the press box. But on Friday we do not do the big stories. But we still thank you. We say thank you to Grove. Up best and the worst of the week in just a moment here. But first shout out. I need to hear from the interim Superintendent of Education for Bay County Schools, Mark McQueen. Mark used to be the city manager for Panama City.
Really good guy, friend of the radio program. I've met him, delightful, impressive, makes sense why Governor DeSantis would have appointed him as the head of schools. Mark, if you're listening, reach out to us. Please call us. You can call us on the standard line eight five zero two zero five WFLA, or email me would be better, Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Or if you work with Mark, you're in the school the County school System office with Mark, please ask him to send me a note.
I've got a listener that needs to share something directly and so and trust me. This is and it's nothing bad, nothing bad, no, no, so yeah, President at iHeartRadio dot com. Presdent at iHeartRadio dot com for Mark McQueen, Superintendent d for Bay County Schools. We would appreciate that. All right, So best and worst of the week. Last week you gripped and you forgot your best. Yeah. I mean, I've got so many things running through my head. You're like me, only you're half not
even half my age. You're in trouble, by the way, why when you get to my age? Oh yeah, I'm gonna remember nothing by the time I hit middle age. Whatever. That looks like, All right, what's your worst and best or best and worst? I saw the worst of the week's story broke last night that things are not looking good for King Charles, like his health is really taking a turn, and that reportedly the crown
is starting to plan make funeral decisions. No, yeah, yeah, New York Post was reported it, and yeah has he even has he even been king for like like a year to a year? Two years? Like, is he gonna be the shortest reigning monarch ever? No? Probably not, but there's got to be someone that was way shorter, right, But at least they get taken out. Yeah, someone asked some guy back in the ninth century, right, Yeah, but man, that just a back to back. You know. I hope he does well and I hope it's not
true. But man, that would be crazy. Uh. I waited all that time? What's that all that time for dear old mom? Right right? I know? Wild best of the week. I loved Anthony's beef. I gotta say that, I'm a feeling you were smiling in there. I was white pill, white pill for me personally. But do you think that really is a strategy? Yeah, I think it can be violate the law to no, it's I mean, how do you answer that it's not a
You use the Chris Rufo effect. Chris Rufo a disant, disappointed guy at the New College of Florida, where you just say we're turning it into Hillsdale, like get out of here, like we're doing this, and so you just get your friends in power, and then you start to slowly transform institution by institution. So that's that's the approach that I think is a winning strategy. Okay, fair enough, my worst of the week. This headline climate
change has bigger impact on LGBTQ plus couples and straight couples. I can't say anything more than that, no words. That's the worst of the week. My best. Florida State University turned on the sprinklers to prevent anti Semitic protests. And what did they do. They put tents where they were told not to. They probably needed a bath though. Hold on, brother, because it's on my It's on my Twitter page this moment. It's there. It's waiting for you. My man took ownership of it. Alpha Male Supreme was
having none of it. They took a chair and put it over top the sprinklers to keep them from hosing them down. This dude grabs the chair and flings it into the bushes and he owns it. He owns it. He says it was me. It has no place on our campus. Go knowles. So that was my best of the week. Someone put low it. I thought it was you. Soapasse. And this is the Preston Scott Show. My man in the program Pam Olson National Day of Prayers coming up,
we'll talk about that. Tiffany Justice, co founder Moms for Liberty, I'm gonna join us. They have sent a letter to Florida Governor around to and we will talk about the contents of that letter and the importance of you being aware of it, and so is that is coming up Monday on the program, and of course, you know whatever news is going on as well. But first it's that time, kay, Do you have any good news for
a kings so much? Just spell it's time for some good news. It's true, even I need a little good news now and then wouldn't it be lovely if we had just a little bit of good news? Came across this article and it says, are you the type to lie in bed at night dwelling on conversations from the day. Perhaps we're living an awkward moment at a dinner party, wondering if you said the right thing during a zoom call with
a colleague. It's a common practice, and unfortunately it can lead to a conclusion that people don't like us as much as we hope that they do. Well. There's been some robust research here published in the Harvard Business Review. Studies done a series of studies done in the UK and the US, during which participants spoke with people they had never met before. After their conversations, they were asked to report back on how much they liked the person they talked
with and how much they thought the person liked them. Here's where it gets interesting. Time and time again, people found that they left their conversations with negatively biased feelings about the impression. They made comments like I'm pretty sure they I like them more than they liked me. People systematically underestimate how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy their company. It is called liking gap,
and the researchers noted that it is an inaccurate perception. It's not limited to people we've just met. Inside the study, they say the liking gap can linger and permeate a variety of relationships, including interactions with co workers, persisting long after the initial conversations have taken place. They said the gap can still exist for colleagues that have been working together for months, if not longer. Aside from the obvious issue of making us feel down on ourselves, the negative
assumptions can have real consequences. Having a larger liking gap is associated with people being less willing to ask coworkers for help, collaborate on projects, or request or offer honest feedback. But there are ways to improve things. One of the things researchers suggest is when you're in a conversation, don't worry about what you're going to say, focus on what the other person is saying, instead of dissecting what you just said or what you might need to say next.
And I've seen it happen in conversations where people aren't really engaged in the conversation. They're worried about it, and so they're thinking about what they're going to say next that might be clever or witty or whatever. Just be a good listener and be a good conversationalist by being a good listener. And here's the bottom line, as Emily Lttella used to say, not Emily Lettella, but Stuart Smally sorry on Saturday Night Live. You're good enough, you're smart enough,
and most people like you. And that's good news. Forty seven minutes after the hour, dad joke headlines from the b next highly anticipated end of the broadcast week, probably probably for a variety of reasons for many different people. For us, it's the pinnacle, for others it's the merciful end. But for all we say thank you for listening, no matter what your reasons.
We appreciate it. See, even if you disagree with my opinions on certain issues, you just have to admit that by the end of the week, we've covered so many stories that you didn't know one thing about that you are better informed, even if you're angry about it. Time for a dad joke. What did the daddy tomatoes say to the baby Tomato? I don't know what catch up? Dang, I should have known. That was like right there, It was there.
