We're back. Like a bad penny, we just keep turning up. How are you friends, It's been a while since we've last chatted. Tuesday, June twenty fifth, Show fifty one eighty three of the Morning Show with Preston Scott. I am Preston. He is Jared, and I got your email. Stopped at the stores. See, we make sure that you find us
quality programming by putting things on in our place that aren't. We just look, it's it's we don't have the ability to just have someone come in here and sit here, though I've always wanted to have that, but we do not have that opportunity at this time, and so when I take time off, that's just what happens. But we're here, we're together. You deserve your time off like everybody else. Preston, I look, I don't feel
bad about it. I don't, but as opposed to just fretting because I mean some of the email they've taken you off the air in this station here in Panama City. I said, no, no, no, no, no, I am just merely on vacation. The email I got in reply was thank goodness, yeah no, no, no. Now, those places that choose to air this programming. Do not regret it. My only regret
is that more places don't choose to air it inside Florida. I have no interest in this show being anywhere other than, of course, via iHeartRadio. This is a Florida Central program because it's the best state in the country, and I'm thrilled to be here. Anyway, we welcome you to the show. Our verse today comes from Isaiah fifty three, verse six. All all, we like sheep, have gone astray. We have turned everyone to his own way. The Lord has laid on him who him Jesus, the iniquity
of us. All. If you go back to our Christmas shows and you remember the posts that I do every year, The Man and the Birds piece written by Lewis Castle's Chicago, not with the Chicago. He was based in Chicago with the United President of National and he was a religion editor and he wrote this piece years ago, and Paul Harvey made it famous, and when Paul passed away, I decided to take it and to keep it alive because Paul Harvey couldn't do it every year. And so yeah, I remind us
all that Jesus came to do what we can't do. And couldn't do, and he took it all on himself. Now, I'll be honest with you. You look at the news some days and you shake your head and you wonder why God puts up with us. We'll unpack some things today on the program. Got some money talk not doing a manly minute doing Sons of Thunder today. Gonna just kind of pause the Manly Minute and pump the brakes on that because we didn't do yesterday's show, and I think the segment Sons of
Thunder more important, So we'll do that. And we've got a guest talking about brain drain, how to keep your kids a little bit more plugged in in the summertime to prepare for fall school. But right now, get ready for the dip, dip into the history books. Here in the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Ten say of sensibility, communicator of common sense amplified.
It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott. To pass the hour. On this day in nineteen seventeen, transport ships carrying fourteen thousand US troops in the American Expeditionary Force approach the shores of France. This is nineteen seventeen where the soldiers joined the Allied fight against the Central Powers in World War One. The US had been reluctant to the Great War. Many Americans viewed it as a European
fight, which they wanted to know part of. President Woodrow Wilson had won reelection in nineteen sixteen on the slogan he kept US out of war, but German aggression, including U boat strikes against American cargo ships, gradually changed public opinion. Wilson realized the country could not avoid a conflict that was engulfing much of the world. As US troops landed in France, Americans were mindful of an old debt owed that nation France had been the colonialists had been the colonists.
Most important ally, during the Revolutionary War, the Marquis de Lafayette had fought beside Patriots soldiers, equipping some of them at his own expense. He won the affection of George Washington became a hero to the young nation. Urged on by Lafayette, France had sent ships, troops, and arms that played
a key role in the Patriots victory. So early in July of ninetheen seventeen, the newly arrived American forces marched under the Arc de Triumph, cheered on by the people of Paris in a ceremony at Lafayette's tomb, where the Frenchman lies buried under dirt from Bunker Hill. Boy, I didn't know that. Wow, did you know that? No, that's a new one for me. That's incredible. An American officer laid down a wreath of pink and white
roses. Another officer stepped forward, snapped a salute, and declared, Lafayette, we are here. Whoo that do goosey bumps? Yeah, man, that is incredible. The words Lafayette, we are here still a good reminder of the need to stand fast with allies when tyranny threatens. We'll get to that later in the news. Seventeen eighty eight, Virginia becomes the tenth state to ratify the Constitution. Sixty eight, President Andrew Johnson signs legislation providing for
an eight hour work day for workers employed by the federal government. Eighteen seventy six, the Battle of Little Bighorn, Custer and more than two hundred and fifty soldiers died after they attacked the Indians camp, and on this date. In nineteen fifty, the Korean War erupts when North Korean troops invade South Korea. Things didn't work out for North Korea. That country has suffered ever since.
All right, sixteen minutes after the hour, let's come back catch up on some things here going on locally next USLA on your phone with the iHeartRadio app and on hundreds of devices like Alexa, Google Home, Xbox, and Sonos. This is Chrysler and Ihearts Radio Sation twenty one past the hour. This is our effort at keeping you in the loop on some important things going on here in the Leon County area, specifically as it relates to in this
segment. There is still help needed cleaning up after the tornadoes. I've got a very good friend who works with Samaritans Purse. Now I was very candid with them. I love Samaritans Purse, but I am very disappointed in Franklin Graham and how he handled COVID, And so I just said, you know, I'm no longer on their mailing list. So if we can help, let us know how, and we'll do our best. And so I got a note. There are still almost two hundred and forty work orders that Samaritan's
Purses received from people that just need help. These are people that do not have the resources or the strength. They might be shut ins, they might be senior adults that simply need trees, limbs, debris cleared from their yard. And Samaritan's Purse has been here since the storms. In fact, they've sent staff into town because they just don't have enough volunteers. So I just got this information in with enough specifics that I can share it better. They
took over eight hundred and fifty work orders Samaritan's Purse. They've completed three hundred and forty three of them. Two hundred and eighty five have been completed by other groups, other individuals, volunteers, and there's two hundred and thirty eight still open as of this weekend, So if you can help. They are based at Calvary Chapel on East Mayhan. If you if you were to drive down I ten and get off at the Mayhan exit and go east a little
bit further, it's not far from the interstate. They are based there. They are they are staying there and every day at seven twenty five am Eastern and twelve twenty five pm Eastern Monday through Saturday, they they meet and send crews out now. You need to have your own transportation. You'll get a short safety orientation, you'll be placed on a team. You bring your own water bag, lunch or snacks, whatever you feel like. You need sunscreened
sunscreen and some hand sanitizer. And you should wear long pants and close toe work shoes or boots. I would add maybe bring rake if you have a chainsaw, maybe bring a chain saw, bring some work gloves. That would That's just me, But if you can help. They plan to be here through July twelfth, but they'll stay as long as there's an order that needs to be fulfilled, a request for help. So on one hand, look, Samaritan's Purse does great work. We've linked up with them several times over
the years on projects with our Operation Thanksgiving and Spirit of Christmas. That said, I just felt like Franklin Graham really dropped the ball when he was pressuring Christians to get the shot. He was wrong, and I've not heard him correct that. I'm not holding a grudge. He does so many good things and he's a good man. He was wrong, and so you know, I'm separating that out from there. There's needs and there are people coming into our town and helping, and so if you can help, and perhaps some
of you are able to do that, that would be awesome. So again, just show up Valary Chapel at seven twenty five this morning or twelve twenty five in the afternoon Monday through Saturday, and they're just sending teams out and you can just do it once, you can do it multiple times. It's up to you. So there you go, twenty seven past the hour. Let's come back with the big stories in the press Box and you will not want to miss those. Next to the Morning Show subjects will just make you
furious. Don't worry. We're here to make it all better. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott. All right, let's get right to it. Thirty five past the hour, Tuesday, back with you. He's Jared, I'm Preston. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Hi. There. Share a little bit about my time away later in the program, but first, the big Stories in the press Box brought to you by Grove Creative Marketing and Digital. Like Bertise State Workers, you get an extra day next week.
The governor is shutting it down, not just on Thursday, July fourth, but Friday the fifth. So you're getting a nice four day weekend. Well done, So am I ah do it too? Solidarity with you anyway, so's that's one thing. But these stories, now two of them are public service announcement stories. Fyis because it's hot gets hot in the summer about every year. Scottsdale, Arizona, Renee Sanchez loaded her twenty month old granddaughter
into her car seat. They were heading to the Phoenix Zoo, which, oh, by the way, an amazing zoo patterned after the San Diego Zoo. It's just it's a beautiful zoo. She She went around to get her granddaughter out of the car, only to find out that her Tesla had died.
She couldn't open the door. Now, Tesla drivers probably know that there's a little hidden, little unlock latch inside the door the arm rest of the door if you're inside the car, But if you're outside the car, there is no provision that has been made other than a rewiring and another battery that takes time to get back in the vehicle. So her granddaughter's in there. We're talking Scottsdale, Arizona, Phoenix heat and it's getting bad quickly. Firefighters
showed up. Quote, oh no, it's a Tesla. Can't get into him. Grandma said, I don't care what you do. Get into the car. I don't care if you cut it in half. Get my granddaughter. So they taped up the window, used an axe. They taped it up so that the shattered glass as much as possible would stay attached to the tape, and a firefighter was able to safely get the granddaughter out. She's fine, everything's fine. Tesla's service personnel determined that the three warnings that are
supposed to come when you're running out of battery never happened. She wasn't warned. Just making note of another reason why we're not there. Second story, much closer to home. Six visitors killed in Florida over the last week because of rip currents over a span of two days, both coasts, but once again, Panama City Beach. The flags are out and people from out of town don't know what they mean, and so they just ignore. All of the beachgoers who died were from out of state. A mom and dad went
out to try to rescue their kids. Their kids managed to get out, they didn't. A young man swept along didn't know how to get out of a rip current reminder Red flag high hazard, Double red flags beach is closed, stay the stink out of the water, Purple flag dangerous marine life. It may be jellyfish, it may be sharks. I'm announcing this because I know we have out of town. We have people listening all across the country
that are gonna come to Florida. Maybe you'll remember. Maybe you'll remember if you get caught in a rip current, don't swim against it, swim parallel to the beach until you can escape it, or just don't fight it. It'll pull you out a little bit. Then swim as the current lessons, but the conditions are ripe. Just don't be in the water. The flags are up, and if you're on a beach without flags, check first. It does not take much, especially if you if you have little children.
More stories next. I'm halfway through the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Remember the days when times were good and life was simple? He still lives there.
The Morning Show with Preston Scott on News Radio one hundred point seven WFLA quick note, it would seem that Joe Biden is pushing us into a world war for US provided Army Tactical Missile System rockets were intercepted over seven stopol and the shrapnel from a fifth rocket rained down on beach goers, killing at least four, including a couple of kids, injuring more than one hundred and fifty others, about half of those in hospitals. Last month, the Biden administration
gave Ukraine authorization to use the American made weapons for limited strikes. There's discussion on those things can't be used without being basically programmed by the United States, so we had to know the targeting and be involved in that. I don't know one way or the other. What I know is we're getting drawn deeper and deeper into this. And I'll be honest with you, I don't have a whole lot of regard for Ukraine. I'm no fan of Putin, but
I'm no fan of what's going on with Ukraine. And I also am keenly aware that Joe Biden is compromised in his judgment as it relates to Ukraine. And I believe that everybody in administration is because they know that they have the dirt on Biden. They paid him for years through his son Hunter. It was a bribery scheme when he was vice president. He's talked about it openly.
I'm just we're getting drawn in, folks. And speaking of Joe, the Biden border is responsible for yet another young child being murdered in this country by illegals, this time a twelve year old little girl in Houston discovered in a shallow creek after being strangled to death. She was likely raped. She
made the mistake of she's twelve. She made the mistake of sneaking out of her mom's home about ten o'clock at night and heading to a convenience store, and a couple guys followed her into the store and eventually lured her under a bridge to another location where they murdered her viciously. They came into the country weeks ago. They were apprehended and then released. How many let me share
a thought. Biden and Democrats have made a calculated decision. This is acceptable collateral damage to get eleven million illegals registered to vote, because that's what they're pushing to do. They may not get all of them done in time for the twenty twenty four election, but that's their goal. Because the Democrat Party is hemorrhaging voters. They need a new victim class, they need more supporters and women and children being murdered by illegals. And I'll point out that these
like that. I believe these two are from Venezuela. I know one of them is. You remember what was going on in Venezuela. Murdeuau was releasing the prisoners that are the worst of the worst to leave the country and come into America. We're getting the most vicious evil people Venezuela has to offer, and they're coming through our open border because of Biden and Democrats. And Democrats, I'm starting to take it personal. This is on you, This is
on your conscience. This is on you supporting this. Did you see that Alvin Bragg did dismissed the charges against the protesters at Columbia University. What so we're allowing anti semitism now, violence, attacks, breaking of the law. This is all on Democrats. It's on you. What's happening on our southern border, the murder of these children. This is on you people because you're voting for this. You vote for Democrats, you vote for this. This's
on you. Forty six minutes after the Hour Show with Preston Scott, this is the Way on news radio one hundred point seven WUFLA pro Palestinian protesters attacking Jews outside a Jewish synagogue in Los Angeles attack w T H. This is ridiculous. This shouldn't be happening. It's happening where Democrats run states and communities. It doesn't happen where Republicans run things. Republicans aren't perfect, God knows,
they're part of the uniparty problem, but there's there. It's night and day difference what happens in Florida versus what happens in California or New York or Illinois or Michigan or or or or or I mean fill in the blank. Now, I understand this is a conundrum for Democrats in a community like Tallahassee. All you got is Democrats to vote for. You can't just blindly vote for Republicans anymore, because they could be plants, they could be rhinos,
you don't know. So you have to then go deeper. Now that leads to a story that we will certainly be talking about with Steve Stewart on Thursday. But I just want to point out there was a piece written in the Tallahassee Democrat which is a Gannett owned newspaper that used to have large circulation and has virtually none anymore. It just and Jeremy Mattlowe reads this, writes this piece Commissioner a way out of a toxic political environment. And I just laughed
at the headline before I even read it. I read it, but I laughed out loud. And there are people that listen to the show and you're Jeremy Mattlowe, sick of phans, and you work for him and you're friends with him, and good on you. It's a laughable headline because the person who started the toxic nameature of politics in tallahasse'es him. You know, it's so comical for me to sit back and for many of you to sit back,
because this is all Democrat infighting. Now you've got moderate old school liberals having to hold off the progressives that are trying to destroy this community. Inevitably, it's up to you, Republicans, conservatives, independents. You're going to decide what happens. Your votes are going to decide. And you can either
be fooled by the nonsense of matt Lowe and Porter his bff. Politically speaking, who an ethics complaint has been filed against her with the State Commission on Ethics, and she's in trouble because she didn't follow the advice of the city attorney and Talashi reports has done all the digging again. Well, we'll deal with all that, But just the hypocrisy of Matt Lowe, who you may remember last election cycle, not that this one. He's taking it up a
notch. He's formed a political action committee against his own colleagues. Matt low started this by campaigning against his colleagues the last cycle. He and pored her both so to suddenly cry, oh the toxic nature when he's the one who poisoned the waterhole. It's funny, it really is. He's counting on you being uninformed. He's counting on you not knowing what's going on. He's counting on you not being nuanced and understanding why he voted against the tax increase.
Look, they shouldn't have raised taxes in this community. It was a bad mistake. But the reasons why he said no has has everything to do with political maneuvering, not wanting to give police more money to hire more officers. Keep in mind, he's the one who routinely calls law enforcement murderers and the
worst that you can imagine. So anyway, all right, let's get to our two talk about some other things next, all right, wiping the slate clean, starting with the second hour here of Tuesday, June twenty fifth, on The Morning Show with Preston Scott back with you live and in your ears yet again. Friends, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, males and females only, and of course ruminators all near and far. He's Jared, I'm Preston. Quick note here for those of you that are coffee drinkers,
and most all of you are. A Wisconsin based coffee manufacturer, Snap Chill, LLC, is voluntarily recalling all of their stuff. Now. They ship nationwide, and they ship their stuff under a lot of different brand names. Potentially the way it produced a specific batch of low acid canned coffee products was not done according to the FDA properly, and so they're doing a voluntary recall
for concerns of botulism, which is bad. Now they're sold under a range of different roaster and brand names, variety of metal cans ranging from seven ounces to twelve ounces. Here's what you do if it just to be certain you look under the nutrition facts panel, which everything has. Now, if it says produced and distributed by snap Chill LLC, you need to look into returning
it and getting a replacement or a refund or whatever. So produced and distributed by snap Chill LLC, most of the coffees are not going to have snap Chill as the brand. They're going to be under something else and produced by. So there you go, just trying to help you. Ever been abroad, I've never. The farthest I've been is like the Bahamas, Caribbean, and yeah, I've been to the Caribbean islands and to Mexico, but not to Europe or anything like that. Yeah. Now, of course I will
not go back to Mexico. Not going to go in my lifetime. Never, never, never won't go going to Europe. I mean, I would admit there are places that I would love to see in my lifetime, but I'm not so determined as to at this point fight the unfriendly skies and go. However, Paris is a thing because the Olympics are coming to Paris in just a few weeks. iHeartMedia, the official audio sponsor of the Olympic Games. And then there's this ah Paris. When you think ah Paris, you're
probably not thinking this. I don't know if it happened yesterday. I have not seen the follow up, but Palaesians were planning to poop in the Sand river to protest poor water conditions. Apparently this has been an ongoing battle in Paris for quite a while. Well, wouldn't that just make the water conditions worse? Uh huh Yeah. Apparently there was an alleged one point five billion dollar project that was supposed to clean up the river ahead of the Olympic Games.
Government officials, the president Emmanuel Macomb and the Paris mayor and Hildalgo both promised that they would they would go for a swim in the sen prior to the Olympics to prove its safe. Thus far, the efforts to clean the river up have failed. Government officials are saying it's the rainfall. We've had high rainfall. One would think rainfall would make it better, unless they're talking runoff. But apparently samples at the river at different points have found alarming levels
of ACTI area from sewage and other sources. And so what started out as a joke, it took off and became viral and apparently a bunch of Parisians were going to drop their drawers and take a dump in the river yesterday. I got nothing for you, folks, that's just it's in the news. I'm sure the Marquis de Lafayette would be very proud of as coach. Oh my goodness, gracious, I just I just you know. Now, now here's the thing. Do you remember Brazil? The Olympics in Brazil. Oh,
yeah, that was a mess. And why water? They were shipping in bottled water because athletes were getting sick. Visitors were getting sick. Yeah, they were getting digestive issues, yes, diarrhea and all kinds of nasty stuff. There was something in the water. So it looks like this Olympic may be plagued with something similar. So we'll have to wait and see. That is not what Paris wants, not at all. Ten minutes past the hour, come back with a Yeah, one year's and still growing, So
tell a friend, both of them. Welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott. All Right, this story I grabbed a hold of from last week. Jared and I were talking about the fact that when I unplugged from the show, I do a pretty good job of pulling the plug. I don't sit down very much at my computer other than to clear my email box, because, as I've mentioned, I get fifteen hundred to two thousand email a
week, and I just I can't fall behind on that. Even on vacation, I have to get in there and go through and process that stuff. And so, you know, I got the usual panic, you're off the air. What happened? Did they fire you? I don't get early on. I got good riddance, you know, every now and then. I don't get that very often. I'm sure there's one or two people that would prefer I not be on the air, But that's okay. I don't hold a grudge. I look, Dad taught me it takes two horses to make
a race, and someone always has to be wrong. And so I'm grateful that you're still listening, even though some of you are wrong all the time. It's okay, It's all right, hum. But I held onto this story series of posts from Tom Fitten. Tom Fitton is if you don't know, Tom heads up Judicial Watch. He's the president. We've had him on the show a few times over the years. Judicial Watch is like Liberty Council
in a different way. Liberty Council goes to court on behalf of people, specific victims being targeted by the government, by state governments, federal government, and they defend and they usually win judicial watch fights on behalf of the American people as a group. And Tom Fitten updated something that was fascinating here. The first post came back in April when Tom Fitton said the Department of Justice is trying to forum shop in order to rig a lawsuit filed by Ashley Babbitt's
family over her killing on January sixth. The request for a change of venue is clearly influenced by defendant's strongest motivation for changing venue. And what that let me boil it down. We've talked about Ashley Babbitt being shot and killed on January sixth, and she was she was murdered. The officer that fired the shots. I've watched the video. He did not give any warning, She had no weapon in her hands, she posed no immediate threat in any way,
shape or form. He shot and killed her. Any other police officer would be standing trial, they would not file charges. In fact, they gave him a promotion, and so the family suing the Biden administration. Well, guess what a federal court granted a change of venue in the wrongful death lawsuit. It's been moved from San Diego, the home of Ashley Babbitt, to Washington, d c. And assigned to Judge Gia Cobb, who was
appointed to the bench by Biden in twenty twenty one. How many change of venue requests have been given the January sixth defendants, You're right, none. It would seem that Democrats can pick any venue they want when they run the federal government. Not a single defendant has been treated fairly that has been charged in January sixth. Supreme Court making a huge decision by the end of the
week on one case in particular that will impact perhaps hundreds. But this is another indication of the rigged justices that we have right now in our country, because of Democrats, because of Joe Biden, because of corrupt officials like Merrick Garland, and remember Barack Obama wanted him to be a Supreme Court justice. About the only useful thing Mitch McConnell ever did was keep that from happening.
But they're giving a change of venue. They're going to move this lawsuit to Washington, DC, seventeen minutes past the hour, we come back, share a little bit of my time off FLA at WFLA fam dot com, on your phone with the iHeartRadio app, and on hundreds of devices like Alexa, Google Home, Xbox, and Sonos and Iheart's radio station. All right,
twenty two past the hour. Last Wednesday was a company holiday. My Heart recognizes Juneteenth, and so what I try to do is when there is a company holiday, I try to parlay that into a longer holiday for me because I have quite a bit of time that I am afforded. I'm very fortunate to have worked with this company for so many years that I have quite a bit of vacation time every year that I have to use. I can't carry it over. Sick time you carry over the vacation time, you cannot.
And so I take my time at Christmas. As you well know, every year, I've taken quite a bit of time at Christmas. It's just a it's a thing that I do is celebrate time with my family, especially with my sweet wife, and we celebrate our anniversary. And yeah, so there's still quite a bit of other time on top of the company holidays. So I played a little bit of golf. In fact, I played quite a bit of golf. I played Wednesday, Thursday and Friday Friday. Played with
a couple of kids that play on the FSU football team. Coach in orvel getting members of the team out into the community doing the things that they like with people in the community that enjoy those same things, whether it's fishing or hunting or playing golf or whatever. So several of the football players came out. I think almost all the quarterbacks were there. It didn't surprise me one
bit. But played with played with a couple of kids that were just delightful with a buddy of mine who's a very good player, Wayne Mayo of Southern Standard contruct Construction. He owns owns the company. He's delightful guy, loves
Jesus and very good player. But you know, did some work in the yard, got just just kind of just you know, celebrated my granddaughter's birthday, which happened to be on my birthday, but we'd already celebrated mine with the family, and so my wife and I just did a little celebration on our own and just kind of hung out and watched some TV and just yeah, just chilled. And my wife was outside and enjoying the backyard, enjoying a little time in the pool, and all of a sudden just said,
I have to I had to come in. I looked at her and she said, someone's smoking weed, and she's my wife is an asthmatic, And yeah, that's that's a no go. And it got me thinking the legalized marijuana Amendment. We're gonna probably see it legalized, and it's a it's a terrible mistake. And I'm about to make some of you mad. And honestly, I really I don't want you mad at me, but I don't care.
You know, I try to be very considered of other people, and I may fail at that at times, but I don't certainly intentionally fail. But weed smokers, you don't get it smoking outside, smoking in your home, and the presence of your children. First, you're gonna hurt your children. I printed one study. I've got several that show secondhand smoke is damaging to the people around it, especially children, for people with breathing issues,
lung conditions, what have you. Yeah, it's a huge problem and it's not fair. I don't know how else to put it. It's just not fair. It's inconsiderate. So I'm just asking you to think about other people. First. Well, I have a right to smoke. Well, we'll see. I don't think you should have the right to smoke outside and ruin other people. Because we're not talking about you know, roast and some marshmallows in the backyard. We're talking about smoking weed, which is a product that
is dangerous. It is a gateway drug. Is it as bad as alcohol? No, it's not as bad as alcohol, but it's a gateway drug. It is just is Sorry you don't think it is, You're wrong. It is. And so I'm hoping that the legislature will respond by saying, you know, yeah, you can't pollute other people. You got to smoke it inside your own home. And you can't smoke it inside your own home if you have miners at home. Because it is statistic. It is.
It is demonstrated over and over again. Science has proven it. It hurts children, It hurts the development of their brain. So I hope the legislature does something about it. Again. I just I can't get my brain around how inconsiderate people are with that stuff. Man, if you want to smoke it cool. Do your thing. I think it's you're just foolish to do it. But do it inside your home. Don't ruin other people's, you know, enjoyment of being in their yard. It's all. That's it,
It's all I got. Twenty eight after the hour back with the Big Stories in the press Box. Aren't you glad that wasn't one of them? Thing Show with Preston Scott Hello, Hello anybody? Oh hily on News Radio one hundred point seven. Doubufla Big Stories in the press Box brought to you by GROBA Creative Marketing and digital Expertise. State workers rejoice, you have an extra day off next week, not just Thursday, for fourth of July. You
are off on Friday. Thank you, Governor Ron de Santas. If you're a state worker, governor said yes, go ahead, let's take the extra day. That's one big story. The other big story not so good. Have you lost track? Ruby Garcia Lake and Riley Rachel Morin among the many young women murdered by illegal criminals that Joe Biden has allowed into the southern border, and they have the gall to say at their press conferences. No president
has done more to address border security. This has to stop. A twelve year old little girl, and this is a story that that hammers home a couple of points. Number one, the southern border. She was murdered by two illegals, likely from Venezuela, that were caught at the border and released. You'll you'll have a court appearance later. They followed this little girl into a convenience store, lured her under a bridge, and murdered her, probably
with do you want to smoke a joint? Probably with do you want to have a drink? Do you want to have a beer? Whatever? They strangled her after they sexually assaulted her. It's a capital crime. They're both facing the death penalty. Twelve year old girl, another murder victim because of illegals. But here's the other side of this story, and this is the one that if we have young people listening. Parents, this is what you tell your children. This is why you don't sneak out at night. That's
why you don't do these things. This little girl, Joscelyn Hungry, hung Nungry, Sorry, made a mistake. When you make them certain mistakes at certain times in certain places, you don't get doovers. It's not like an argument at a at a sandbox or in the playground. This is where evil people are in our country. They're looking for opportunities. And this is why young people, you don't sneak out of your parents' home. This is why you don't do stupid things like that, because you may not ever get the
chance. What do you think this girl was thinking, just at that moment when she realized she made a mistake, that these men were not interested in being a friend. They're going to sexually assault her and then murder her. This is the fault of Joe Biden, and this is the fault of Democrats. They've done the calculation, collateral damage, like young Joscelyn, like these other examples that we've mentioned in the countless others we have not that's collateral damage.
That's worth it to get illegals into this country so they could try to vote. That's the calculation. That's what Democrats and this president are doing. That's why they don't have much to say. Forty one minutes after the hour, more big stories next in the Morning Show with Preston Scott of doing morning drive radio differently, doing it his way like old Blue Eyes, except he has a little more hair. The Morning Show with Preston Scott more big stories.
Sadly, closer to home, at least six visitors to Florida died in rip currents last year. More than thirty died along the coast of the Sunshine State, half along the Florida Panhandle. The span of two days. At least six died over the last weekend. Fatalities reported along Hutchet Island on the Treasure Coast, along with Panama City Beach and the Panhandle. Rip current threats continue. All of the victims were out of state. This is a common
thread. This is I just it frustrates me because all of us who live here, I hope know to tell visitors, But sadly, I know for a fact that not all visitors listen. They don't pay attention. Friday, a group of men between the ages of twenty four twenty five vanished in rough surf, triggering a rescue effort in Bay County. Sheriff's office made the announcements that all the victims had been located but had passed away from their injuries.
Young men who I will assume were relatively healthy. Were they drunk, maybe don't know. Are they high? I don't know? I don't know. What I know is that there are flags that tell you don't go in the water. Red is hazardous, double red, beach closed, purple, marine, life, sharks, jellyfish, whatever it might be. My concerns come to beaches where there may not be flags or lifeguards call no before you get in the water. Second story is somewhat similar in that it's avoidable, but
in this case it's a tesla lady in Arizona and Scottsdale. Her battery died after she had gotten out of the car. She was getting in to get her She was going to get her granddaughter out of the car. The battery died. She couldn't get in her tesla. If you're inside your tesla and the battery is dead, there's a little manual lever that unlatches the door when
you're outside. That's a whole nother matter. And very few people know how to do the wiring and know how to basically charge the system enough to allow it to open back up. Just another short fall of evs. They managed to get the little girl, little three year old two year old granddaughter out safely by breaking into the car through the windows. You can't break into a Tesla the way you can get into most cars. But happy end, but a sober warning. So just remember it's hot. If you've got an EV,
you better darn well know the situation. In this case, Tesla confirmed the warning system that should have told the grandma that her battery was low did not operate properly. Oops. Coming up to forty seven minutes after the hour, we come back, Little Sons of Thunder segment on The Morning Show Show with Preston Scott. Does Mother No You Wear her drepe on News Radio one hundred point SEVENUFLA. Coming up next hour, Professor Michael Erman, founder of
something called the Olive Book. It is an online ed tech platform providing SAT test prep tools and courses for e learning. And we're going to basically talk about ways to help your high schoolers and middle schoolers to a certain extent,
avoid what's called summer brain drain. Now, I am going to ask him his thoughts on year round school because I just I still believe going back to my days as as as president of a private school, just observing because I'm you know, I wasn't an educational expert by any means, but we hired people that were and of course, my wife has her master's in education as an educator and a researcher, a reading researcher, and so I've over the
years just it's a subject that I care out, have always cared about, and I've read an awful lot about and so I'm fascinated by the subject. And I also believe that it sort of falls into that responsibility that we have here on the program to use the platform for good purposes for you as parents,
to help your kids. And so that's coming up next hour. Now, normally we would do a manly minute on Tuesday, but because we did not have a Monday program, I waited, measured, and I decided, Yeah, I'm gonna go ahead and do the Sons of Thunder segment because this can apply as a manly minute as well. We'll just spare you the manly minute music. Sons of Thunders about men, You guys stepping up to the plate. If you're going to claim to be a Christian, act like one,
be one, lead like one, and you lead by serving. The best leaders are servants. It's called servant leadership. Now, last week I challenged you on expanding your music taste a little bit. Nothing wrong, with listening to some secular music. Nothing wrong with it at all. Some of it is trash, and if you actually listen to the lyrics, you'd go oh. If you actually read the lyrics of some of the songs, you'd go oh. Here's why it's important listen to what it says here in Luke,
each tree is known by its own fruit. Figs are not gathered from thorn bushes, nor grapes picked from a bramble bush. The good person, out of the good treasure of his heart, produces good. The evil person, out of the evil treasure, produces evil. For out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks. What comes out of your mouth? Are you cussing all the time? Swearing in front of your children, in front of your spouse? Is that kind of just how you conduct yourself using
just profanities all the time. It reveals what's been inputed into your brain and into your heart, because what's in your heart comes out of your mouth. That's why the challenge last week to pay attention to what is being inputed into your life. The movies you're watching, the music you're listening to, the books you read, the things, the kinds of conversations you're taking part of and party in, because what you treasure in your heart ends up coming out
your mouth. Time for the third hour of the Morning Show. Five past the hour. Good morning Friends, Ruminators, men, women, ladies and gentlemen, Ruminators near and far. It's the third hour of the Morning Show with Preston Scott Show five thousand, one hundred and eighty three. But who's counting? That is Jared running the radio program in Studio one A and I am here in Studio one B. Great to be with you after taking some time off over the last few days. Delighted to share time once again.
And as I told you, one of the things we like to do here is you know, twenty two plus years are doing the program. We try to make this show a show that's a safe harbor for parents with their kids. And now we have kids that are grown and in college and they have kids and they listen to this show when they were young. We try to make this a program that not only discusses the things that are in the news, but things that can improve your life, the life of your family,
the life of your children that would be helpful. And this is a topic that when I saw it. I was very intrigued. I shared last hour my interest in education my wife, of course it's her profession. And I'm joined by college professor Michael Erman. He's the founder of something called the Olive Book. Professor. How are you? I'm doing really well? How are you? I'm doing terrific. Tell us about the all of book? What is that? They? All of the book is a digital SACH prep.
So the fake went digital in March, and it's a digital SAT prep that is really for visual learners. So we have it's not kind of pixed our level, but we have animations that pretty high quality animations that help explain the answers to the questions. Well, we're pretty much so good good. I was just gonna say, what what what gave you the idea to do this? Where? What was the gap the need that you felt needed to be
filled. I'm an architecture professor at Virginia Tech, and so I kind of come to believe that everybody's a visual learner and that no one ever looked at a graph and said, can you put that back into a table of numbers? So at first that you know, everyone was everyone could say that. I think I would say you know architecture visual learners. But the more I kind of looked around and read about it, the more I realized that everybody
is. And I have a math degree and I've been tutoring maths for I don't know thirty years or so, So between the two I started to combine those to those two interests. What what kind of I'm curious before we get into the summer brain drain, and kind of some tips to help parents and high schoolers, maybe even some middle schoolers keep a little bit of it edge it intellectually as they head to the next school year. I'm just fascinated.
What was the reaction you got? What are you seeing that is showing you that your method of helping people in this format is working. It's a great question, and it's kind of a challenge, frankly for anyone who's creating asynchronous online content. So it's you know, students can kind of log in. It's not really me talking to them in any kind of direct way. It's usually most of the feedback comes by email and people will say, oh,
this is really helpful. But there was nothing specifically before I started that led it to it. I mean, I did have a I did have a I have a history of kind of making other types of courses in visual ways, and I've been pretty successful on YouTube. I think I have maybe eight or nine million views now on my YouTube channel, and uh, just kind of explaining things in visual ways seems to be something that people crave. But I don't know, I don't know of a way to measure it too carefully.
Did you do you generally get feedback from parents or from young people that are actually engaged in the content. Uh, probably about half and half, although there's a surprising number of grandparents out there as well that I did not
count on when I started this. It's generally, it seems like the people this is a this is a real challenge for anyone who's in this space is a the people, the people using the course of the students, right, and the people buying the course and kind of selecting the course of the parents and so generally, so it's not enough. It's not enough just to kind of attack attack one or the other. You kind of have to talk to both groups at the same time. The students get it, I think they
would, you know, they're very comfortable learning online. The parents maybe are used to some of the more old fashioned sources for for test some of the names that they had when they were a kid, they feel might be more comfortable. And I understand that too as a parent of a student who's taking me right now himself. Professor Michael Erman with us, founder of the Olive
Book in fact online you can find it at Olive dashbook dot com. Talk a little bit more about that, also get into some strategies for you as parents, for some of you young people. I know I've got young people listening to the program. It's after eight a m. Eastern because a few of you wake it up and you're joining us this morning morning. Come here in the Morning Show with Preston Scott. D from The Spin, Don't Know what to Believe? Clear the Fog The Morning Show with Preston Scott on News
Radio one hundred point seven w FLA. Levin passed the hour with Professor Michael Erman. The Olive Book, Olive Dashbook dot com. It's sat prep test prep stuff. Professor. I'm curious. I mean, there's a part of me that says, Okay, a kid that's gonna gonna go online and going to go this route. They're they're already they're thinking ahead, they're probably going
to be a better student. But there's still this part of me that that knows based on what the colleges and the state colleges, community colleges are telling us, they're spending more and more time doing remedial teaching before they can advance these kids into real college coursework. I'm curious, have you had to take that into account with your with your olive book, that more kids might need a little boosting on the stuff they should have learned early in high school,
maybe even middle school. Yeah, I mean, there's there's probably three sides to this. So one is you touched on something that is oftentimes is something
they did do really quite well in middle school. Maybe they're an advanced kid and they learned mediums when they were in eighth grade, but now they're in eleventh grade and they need to know mediums for the SAT and it's been three years, and if they had an even number of you know, number of numbers, and they're trying to figure out, well, what's the media if it's you know, one, two, three, four, what's the medium
of one, two, three and four? And so part of it is just kind of natural forgetting and that's actually probably more of a problem for the advanced kids, just because they covered some of the material that they need a little bit earlier. So that's one side of it. One side of it is I think probably the r sweet spot is a kid who maybe is an eleven hundred and something scorer and wants to get in the thirteen hundreds. That's that's probably the you know, the kid who's a thirteen to fifty scorer and
wants to get in the fifteen hundreds. She's probably somebody who once she sees the answer right away, she's like, right, that's what I did wrong, and doesn't really maybe need as much of the animations. But also, you know, I want to push back a little bit on the idea, at least my experience. Based on my experience, I've been teaching architecture students at Virginia Tech where I'm a professor, for twenty three years, and I
really haven't seeing the kind of remedial problem. In fact, if anything, the students seem to get smarter each year. Hmm. A lot of a lot of the kind of conventional wisdom that you know I argue with my friends about. They say, oh, you know, it's kind of see that old man thing when they say, oh, you know, kids today,
and I'm like, man, aren't they amazing? And They're like, no, they you know, they're they're they're, they're they're you know, I'm having to teach them everything that they should have known, and I think a lot of us forgot how little we knew when we first started whatever it was we were starting. So I yeah, so I'm a little bit more probably of a defender of this generation of students. Maybe it's partly because of the types of students I work with. Maybe I'm just lucky. Yeah, I
would. I would probably guess that, you know, someone that's going into architecture is probably sort of like someone that's going in engineering in general. You know, it's just it's a different kind of kid and they're just wired a little bit differently. But that said, talking to masses right now, you know, we hear about summer brain drain. I'm a fan of of schools, considering year round school where they take three week breaks and there's not this
long gap. I think there are a lot of reasons to think about it. But we're we're where we are. So what are some tips that you would give parents and young people to kind of keep their brain sharp over the summertime months. Yeah, I mean generally, and this is across all races, classes, genders, and so forth. We lose about a month during the summer of progress, you know, and everything. And so insofar as you kind of have time now or some of some of your listeners have kids
who have time, there are probably four things I would focus on. The first is curiosity. Uh. There's nothing that I've seen in my teaching that's more closely correlated to success in college, uh than just someone who's curious. I'll take the curious kid over any other quality every time. And it's just so easy now to look something up compared to what it had been. So
kind of living a curious life. If you, you know, see something on a you know, some historical reference on social media, you want to look up that seventeenth century figure being quoted, and you want to do it right away because you won't remember to look it up later or you won't care. But importantly, curiosity kind of compounds over time, so you get more and more content. The more content you have, the more content you know.
And I'm sure you deal with this in your line of work. You probably just probably all kinds of things you learn just kind of interviewing people. But if you treat not knowing something like an itch that has to be stretched, the whole thing starts to snowball in the good direction, where each new concept is a bit easier and a bit stickier with all the kind of you
know, the knowledge of the other concepts that start subscribing. So the first is curiosity, I think is a good thing to have, frankly for anything. The second is maybe create something right, so you know, read a blog, code design of you know, if you're kind of a coder, start coding. If you want to learn how to change your car headlamp, change your car headlamp as or things you can also maybe do with a parent, right, so you can you can plan a vacation with a parent,
you can do an exercise regiment with a parent. And that brings me to number three. Heng on a second, Professor, we got to take a quick break. We're going to pick up on point three and four. Connect some dots together, because that's what we do around here. Seventeen minutes past the hour with me, Professor Michael Erman with Virginia Tech University, and it's
the Olive Book. It's online Olive Dashbook dot com. More on the Morning Show with Preston Scott f La on your phone with the iHeartRadio app and on hundreds of devices like Alexa, Google Home, Xbox and Sonos and Ihearts radio station. It's an online at tech platform that's pretty innovative. It's the Olive Book and you can find it for yourself, for your children, your kids, your youngsters Olive Dashbook dot com. It's designed for SAT prep, test
prep, and so for the older kids primarily. And with us is a college professor from Virginia Tech, Michael Erman, professor. You mentioned you said the word memory and that it kind of stirred something in me. In this day and age of people with their phones and they've got an entire phone book as well as an entire library and their phone and then some it occurs to me that we're challenged these days with memory. We don't remember phone numbers because
we got them in our phone. How much does that play a role in how you've set up even the Olive Book and what you observe in your students. The memory is a huge part of test PRAF. It's kind of maybe not talked about as much as maybe it could be. And generally the research on memory is shockingly new. I mean they only started really looking at how we learned maybe one hundred years ago, and really in earnest started looking at
it maybe in the eighties. And what they found is, well, it's a bunch of things, and all of them will kind of surprise you, but none of them will at the same time. So one is that it turns out our brains are capable of of capable of kind of processing just about everything. It's in terms of exposure, but it's the recall that turns out to be the weak link. So but the good news is that recall is a bit like a muscle. So the more you work on practicing remembering things,
the more you're likely to remember something. And so generally what we want to do is we want to remember try to remember something just before we would have forgotten it anyway. So if you're learning, for instance, to play something on the piano, if you kind of memorize it today and then tomorrow just about the time you would have forgotten it, you show do it again and then again in about a week, and again in about a month,
and again in about a year, you'll have it forever. So that is one of the kind of embracing the doubt that comes from really trying to figure something out and really kind of working hard. That's why, that's why flashcards work so much better than highlighting in a book in terms of in terms of how the course itself tackles that we generally we generally try to repeat things that need to be repeated, but in a different way. Right, So it's
called spiral learning. So you kind of cover a topic and then maybe you go a little bit and then you cover a topic again. Because very practice makes for better learning and for better memory. So if, for instance, they found that if they give kids when they're teaching kids division, if they give them multiplication and division in their worksheets, not just division, they'll do better than if they just give them divisions. Because we kind of approach things
from different sides. Yeah, you mentioned two things that would be useful to help a kid keep their brainal edge for the summer. For lack of a better way of putting it, give us the final two. Yeah, the first one was curiosity, the second one was to create. The final two is you know exercise. I heard a radio show where the interviewer kept saying, so, what's best for you for helping us with with learning and with memory? And the experts at exercise and the interviewers to do Yeah, but
like sudoku or exercise, and they were talking past each other. And there's really no better way to sharpen your brain than physical exercise. It's better than puzzles, it's better than way better than listening to classical music. And nothing really comes close to physical exercise. And finally, just reading. And I was not a reader until I was an adult. Uh, my wife TV in the bedroom, and so I started reading. And just the act of reading is also a bit like a muscle, where the more you read,
the easier it gets, the better, the better you comprehend something. And there's really nothing better for reading comprehension than actually reading. And if you are an STPH or a CP, because you guys are going to tell Hasse uh test taker, Uh, the best thing you could probably do right now is to just start reading every night a bit. Tell me where people can find you on YouTube? Uh, they can go they can search YouTube for all of book test prep. Okay, so it's it's under olive book as well.
I'll try to remember that. Oh for the yeah, I'm sorry for the for the for the big yeah. So that's where they can find me for uh for test prep, for for architecture, which is where most of my most of my viewers come from. They can find me at Amber Book, Amber Book, good stuff. Professor, thanks for the time. I appreciate your knowledge and UH appreciate your time this morning. It was great.
Thank you, thanks so very much. Professor Michael Herman. He's uh a professor of architecture at Virginia Tech University, but he's also a learning development guy. And it's called the Olive Book, and you can learn more online Olive dash Book or to be technical hyphen Olive hyphenbook dot com and learn a bit more. I get some tips to help the kids stay a little bit more mentally engaged this summer, so when they get back to school in a month
and a half, they will be better prepared. Twenty seven minutes past the Hour, Big Stories in the press Box, Money Talk next on the Morning Show. You're surprised if you laugh, We suggest you use the restroom before you listen, or invest in a thirty foot catheter. Yes, I use it. All the time. This is the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Money Talk just a few minutes away tomorrow Jerome Hudson of bred Barton, author
of the Fifty Things books. He will join us. Always have a great, great time chatting with Jerome, former intern on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Now, he's like so many that have come along on this program over the years, just doing great things. I could not be more proud of the many producers of this program that have gone on to just kill it.
And it's really just a joy in that regard. I kind of feel like that, you know, that coach in school that just encouraged and nudged and pushed and tried to coach up and help those that they were given the opportunity to work with. So it's good to have jer Own back on the show every month, and I'm pleased that he's able to make time for us. Busy Man is an entertainment editor for Breitbart, one of, if not the most conservative news websites out there that in terms of business, visitors,
and views, just huge audience. Big stories in the press Box brought to you by Grove of Creative Marketing and Digital expertise headlines six visitors. At least six killed in Florida over the last few days as rip currents take lives because people from out of state don't know what to do. It is your job to inform. Do not think that you're insulting them by saying, hey,
pay attention to the flags. If you don't see flags, call find out the surf conditions, call the sheriff's office, in the beat, in the county you're in, Do whatever you need to do, because we're seeing people die needlessly, people out in the water in red flag waters, and it's it's just it's foolishness. Tesla locked up grandchild locked inside hot conditions in Scottsdale. The child is fine. Firefighters got the kid out, but the tesla
has a problem. In this case, the battery warnings that it's going out didn't work. Tesla confirmed that it wasn't her word. They confirmed it yeat. The alerts didn't happen, and so she got out, shut the door, went to get her grandchild out and the doors were locked. She went around to the other side. That kind of it just anyway, more indications at evs are just not there. White House Biden they got nothing to say.
Another child twelve years old murdered by undocumented migrants otherwise known as the illegal aliens, people that broke into this country and the Biden administration makes it easy for them to stay here, and so we have another victim. It seems as though it's acceptable collateral damage to Democrats to get more votes from legal immigrants,
just saying. And it appears as though we're slowly being edged into World War three because Russia is not real happy that our missiles were used at targeting what it considers its property. It's people, it's land, it's cities, and we're being bullied by Biden because he owes Ukraine. Forty minutes past the hour, money talk is on deck. We move on here in The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Where you may be from Florida, Sunshine State to
New York's. Forget New York, scratch that New York's now hopeless. At least the city is for the rest. We're your Morning Show, The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Time for a little money talk with investment advisor Howard Eisman with Enhanced financial service, securities and advisory services offered through NBC Securities Inc. Member Finra and SIPC. NBC Securities Inc. Is a wholly owned subsidiary of RBC Bank USA. The apngeons expressed are not those of NBC Securities Inc.
Or iHeartMedia. In inappropriate matters, seek professional tax and our legal advice. Howard. Housing is always an interesting indicator of what's going on in the economy. But housing is weird right now nationally, Yeah, it really is. Preston Own prices continue to hang right in there at Historichive building continues, particularly in the new home area, but there's a big backlog of new homes. The most recent estimate the US Census Bureau indicates that the backlog is just
over nine months of unsold homes. And historically, though Preston, that backlog typically averages three to four months. And the key indicator to me in a chart and data I've recently spotted is that when it gets to nine months, historically that kind of backlog has preceded economic slowdowns and recessions in a pretty consistent way. So something to continue to pay close attention to. Would it be fair to say that we're kind of at a stalemate where though there are five
million you know, kind of households that need housing. Yep, they cannot afford the mortgage rates and the prices that are being demanded right now, and so we're at we're kind of at a stalemate. Absolutely, high prices, high mortgage rates act as a a headwind for home sale. So one hundred percent on target there. So let's see how all this plays out in the coming months and in the next year or so. We've certainly seen it here in Florida. The governor paid a great deal of attention to it over his
last six years in office. It seems as though more and more young people are are going away from the traditional college route and looking at vocational options precisely, and I see that as a very encouraging sign. Student enrollment preston in vocational colleges this past year actually rose sixteen percent. Wow. Yeah, and that compared to growth of just under one percent increase in all four year colleges and universities. So the other interesting part of that taking it the next step
when that person finishes his vocational you know, career if you will. Median starting annual pay for instance, just in the construction industry alone this past year was up five percent compensation of over forty eight thousand and pressing that compared to an increase in pay of just two point seven percent or thirty nine thousand for
new hires and all the quote unquote professional services. There are indexes all over, and it appears as though there's another one that we're developing, and it's the price of milk, well, the price of food in most things that we buy at the store, right, but well, we'll focus on milk today. So milk prices this past month, good news, actually fell a little bit, but they're still up a little over two, you know,
two percent in the past year. When we look at it longer term, and I think obviously folks look at prices at the grocery store as to okay, how much did I just pay it, you know when I hit the checkout line yesterday. But a gallon of milk has the cost of it has
risen about thirty six percent over the last twenty years. Yeah, so twenty years ago, looking at two dollars and ninety five cents to pick up that gallon of milk, at the end of last year four dollars, and I just checked, I think the price today somewhere in the neighborhood of three dollars and ninety five cents. That's depending on where you shop, of course. Wow yeah, now, Howard, thanks so much. I always appreciate the data, and we'll talk again in a couple of weeks. Look forward to
Preston. Have a good rest of the week. So thank you, sir, Howard Eisman with us this morning here in the Morning Show with Preston Scott Housing. What a pnundrum forty six past the hour. Well, many of you will be very relieved to know that I found twelve yards yesterday and the driving range that went missing. I was nuts. I was being driven nuts. Played seven a legacy with some friends with a buddy of mine on Friday, Wayne Mayo. Wayne may not want me to announce that he and I
are friends, but we have been friends for a long time. But played with some of the FSU guys and some other other folks. And the golf course is just if you've never gotten a chance to play, it's a remarkable golf course. Greens were rolling twelve or thirteen on the stimpmeter, which means they're fast and course knowledge is everything. But I was just I played a pretty good front nine and the back nine. I just got so frustrated with myself because I was just I was. I lost twelve yards and I have
been losing twelve yards. And the easy answer is, well, you're getting older, Preston. Look, I understand all of the mechanisms of the golf swing quite well, and I understand the role that age plays in all of that. And I know that my swing speed will never be what it was when I was younger. I get that. I'm fine with that, but I'm not prepared to lose the twelve yards the way that I've lost them.
And so I felt as though there was something I needed to address in how I was hitting the golf ball, because when I would hit it very well, I was actually lofting the golf club versus delfting the golf club, which is what you want to do. That's called compressing the golf ball. And so I spent some time on the range yesterday morning, very early in the morning, and found twelve yards, and so I was very happy about that. Now I have to find those twelve yards more consistently. I've found them
on about sixty five percent of my swings, not ninety percent. And I have a personal rule I have a ninety percent rule when I transition and make changes in my golf swing. So anyway, just saying I've found twelve yards, Can I keep them? That remains to be seen. But those twelve yards matter and if you play golf, you know exactly what I mean. They matter a lot. And so yeah, anyway, real quickly here before we go tomorrow, Jerome Hudson, Florida, Man Factor Fiction and we're expecting
some significant Supreme Court rulings this week. They'll start rolling out anytime now. And so there are at least six or seven huge cases that are going to be decided, and so we'll be keeping an eye out for that as well. Brought to you by Barno Heating and Air. It's the Morning Show one
on WFLA. Started the radio program with Isaiah fifty three, verse six, and then we went a little deeper dive in our Sons of Thunder segment, which replaced the Manly Minute today just today normally it's a Monday, but anyway, and so some good stuff there to kind of nudge especially you guys a little bit in your faith.
