Starting point is 00:00:00 With Amex Platinum, you have access to over 1,400 airport lounges worldwide. So your experience before takeoff is a taste of what's to come. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply. Blaze Radio Network. And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. What seemed like a good plan in the beginning turned out to be, well, not so good of a plan. A man in Spain faked heart attacks.
Starting point is 00:00:30 in at least 20 restaurants to avoid paying the bill after he had dined. The 50-year-old man, originally from a Lithuanian, has been jailed after he failed to pay the fine for his what they're calling
Starting point is 00:00:45 theatrical skills. So, you know, they, he would order big meals, glasses of white label whiskey, salad, a huge meal, and then slump over on the floor,
Starting point is 00:01:00 floor and the one restaurant manager said it was very theatrical and he was the one who took a picture of the man and sent it to all these other restaurants and they had either had it happen or were ready for it when it happened again
Starting point is 00:01:15 so he was fined for doing this now he ended up not paying the fine so now he's going to go to jail for 22 days a whole 22 days for not paying a fine.
Starting point is 00:01:31 I guess all the restaurant bills only added up to be like $800 in unpaid restaurant bills. That seems a little low. If you're going to do that, you're going to want to spend a little bit more money than that. That's just me, though.
Starting point is 00:01:44 Now, I'd never seen this happen before where someone actually had a heart attack in a restaurant while I was eating. Although, what are you going to do? Right? I mean, if someone drops over, you're going to try to take care of them. You have to.
Starting point is 00:01:56 Well, I mean, you have to, otherwise you just have to go, I think that guy's having a heart attack. Oh, well. I need a little bit more water over here, please. And I'm running low on ketchup. Sir, somebody's having a heart attack. Yeah, I see him.
Starting point is 00:02:11 But I need to finish my meal. I mean, so he got away with it for a while. It's awesome. It sounds like a good plan until the other restaurants. Maybe you go into a different city. Maybe you spread it out a little bit. Just, you know, try it someplace else. But, hey, I don't want to tell people how to do crime.
Starting point is 00:02:28 crime. That's not what this show is about. I mean, I try to maybe point out mistakes that were made from these criminals, but to have people go out and do these crimes, no way, Jose. Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat. So Douglas Mackey was sentenced by United States District Judge Ann M. Donnelly, to seven months in prison, seven months in prison, for his role in a conspiracy to interfere with potential voters right to vote in the 2016 election for the office of the president of the United States. Douglas, also known as Ricky Vaughn, was previously convicted of the charge of conspiracy
Starting point is 00:03:28 against rights by a trial, by a federal jury in Brooklyn. Brooklyn, and he was convicted of the charge in March of 2023 following a three-week trial. They will not let this guy go. So what he, in the horrific crime that he did was post some memes. I know. Now you're thinking, good, good, is that all he got was seven months? So I, in his Twitter account, and it was Twitter at the time,
Starting point is 00:04:02 He had like 58,000 followers, okay? And so he, as one of the most significant influencers of the then-upcoming presidential election, oh my gosh. He conspired with other influential Twitter users and with members of private online groups to use social media platforms, including Twitter, to disseminate fraudulent messages that encourage supporters of presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton to vote via text message or social media. Which of course, I mean, which of course is legally invalid.
Starting point is 00:04:46 And nobody, you can't tell people to do that. Because if people are stupid enough to believe that, sorry, but that's not what happened here. All right. For example, in or around November 1, 2016, MacI, he was sending tweets suggesting the importance of limiting black turnout. The defendant tweeted an image depicting an African-American woman standing in front of an African-Americans for Hillary sign. The ad stated, avoid the line. Vote from home. Text Hillary to 59925 and vote for Hillary to be a part of history.
Starting point is 00:05:29 The fine print at the bottom of the deceptive image stated that you must, you must. be 18 years older to vote. One vote per person must be a legal citizen of the United States. Voting by text not available in Guam, Puerto Rico, Alaska, or Hawaii, paid for by Hillary for President 2016. Now, that's funny. Now, are there
Starting point is 00:05:47 African Americans that are following this guy on Twitter? I, you know, maybe. Okay, maybe two, three? I don't know. And if you read that and actually thought that were true, man we don't need you to vote we do not need you to vote oh i'm sorry the tweet also included
Starting point is 00:06:09 a hashtag i'm with her oh my gosh now several hours after tweeting the first image oh my gosh this is the horror of this he tweeted an image depicting a woman seated at a conference room typing a message on her cell phone this deceptive image was written in Spanish and mimicked a font used by the Clinton campaign in authentic ads. So a font, a font that mimicked the campaign, authentic ads font. The image also included a copy of the Clinton campaign's logo and the I'm with her hashtag. We're doomed. That's what we are.
Starting point is 00:06:57 We're doomed. We are doomed. Douglas Mackey sentenced to seven months in prison for his role in a conspiracy to interfere with potential voters right to vote in the 2016 election for the office of the president of the United States. I mean, I could probably be in trouble because I may have even just liked that tweet. I don't know that I retweeted it. I may have retweeted it. It's possible. I don't even know. I haven't deleted any tweet, so it's up there. You can go and obviously find it. It's fine. if you wanted to go on X at
Starting point is 00:07:31 Jeffrey JFR. I'm sure that it's posted somewhere. I may have liked it because I thought it was funny. It's just stupid. It's... All right, I'll stop. I'm sorry. So when you hear people say, we're living in a police state, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:47 We're getting pretty close. The government's getting really, really big-handed. And that doesn't bode well for you bea-beamers out there. tell you that. And maybe with the dumbing down of America, we need to think about it a little bit. I don't know. I mean, you can't look at something and think
Starting point is 00:08:07 that's not true and say, that's funny and move on. It didn't say it was a satirical post, Jeff. Oh, okay. All right. Fine. I mean, I see this chart on how many hours a day
Starting point is 00:08:23 teens are spending on social media. And I guess it's concerning. I guess. All teenagers spend 4.8 hours a day on social media. Boys 4.4. Girls 5.3 hours on social media. Now, they break that down to YouTube is number one, then TikTok, then Instagram,
Starting point is 00:08:52 almost no one is on Facebook or X. So the teens, the teens aren't digging the old X. Facebook and barely the Instagram, although the Instagram is there, but TikTok and YouTube are the top performing social platforms for teenagers. So there you have it.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I mean, it does seem while you spend 4.8 hours per day on the seven popular social media platforms, YouTube, like I told you. Although they have a WhatsApp and WeChat on there. I don't know. It also shows
Starting point is 00:09:27 that 17-year-olds were most likely to pass the four-hour mark every single day. However, 42% of the 13-year-olds were also met the 13-year-olds also met the 4-hour threshold. Well, I mean, that's just old enough to be on most of these platforms, right? So there you have it. It's up to you, what you do with your children or how much time they spend online. And I would also like to say, you know, are we messaging? Are we talking to friends? I don't know. It just. Are we just on there scrolling, doom scrolling? I probably are.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Probably just doom scrolling. Although, you know, you can FaceTime your friends. And I say FaceTime. That's a Facebook thing. You could, you know, you can stream on TikTok or whatever. There's plenty of ways that a lot of people talk to each other now on the social media platforms. And that's spending time on the platform without actually, you know, you're on the platform talking to your friend. you know, live streaming each other back,
Starting point is 00:10:32 but you're not necessarily on the platform. And you get my point. You get my point. Hey, I mentioned, you know, you can follow me on X at Jeffrey JFR. Facebook and Instagram is Jeff Fisher Radio. YouTube chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. Because you need to you right there.
Starting point is 00:10:49 You, yeah, I'm talking to you. You need to spend more time on social media. Yeah, you need to make that happen. So when you do, spend it with me. It's very, very simple. and if you need a cameo, you can order a cameo at Jeffrey JFR on Cameo. That's not free, though, but you can order it and just tell them what you want, happy, glad, sad, mad, mean, whatever you need,
Starting point is 00:11:10 and I will do that for you on Cameo at Jeffy JFR. You can always email the show anytime. 24 hours a day. That's the way the internet works. Chewing the fat at the blaze.com. Chewing the fat at the blaze.com. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink.
Starting point is 00:11:28 desperately. So when I was working in New York, when I came into the city and worked in Manhattan, right to part of Times Square on the Avenue of Americas, I passed by Good Morning America every day. In fact, when I was in New York, 100 years ago, now, what seems like 100 years ago, there was an app called 4Square,
Starting point is 00:11:58 and you used to check in everywhere you went. Yeah, that's right. You told people where you went. you were at all times. And so you would check in and you could become a mayor of whatever place you checked into. If you checked into it every day or multiple times a day, well, I was the mayor of ABC's Good Morning America. Okay. On four square. Because our offices and radio studios were actually on the same block just on the other end. And so I had to pass by a good morning America almost every day. And so, you know, it was kind of cool. And you see their
Starting point is 00:12:32 morning show studios and you saw guests walking up and down the avenue there when you were headed into the building. It was just kind of a cool, stupid thing. Well, now, Good Morning America is looking to move out of that space on Times Square. Wow. That's kind of a big deal. Now, they claim it's not going to happen until 2025. Okay. But Disney is building a new building or they have built a new building, this new office tower in Hudson Square neighborhood. And they want to bring everyone together in New York. So they're saving money. They're tired of paying the least money on that studio in Times Square.
Starting point is 00:13:15 I guarantee you that is not cheap. And I know Robin and Michael Strayhan and George Stephanopoulos all love to have people walk by during Times Square and stare at us. And we've got our big shiny electronic billboard. out front and we do our bits there in Times Square sometimes, but that costs Disney a fortune. So I know
Starting point is 00:13:38 that Disney, of course, says that, hey, Good Morning America is defined by the strength of our team in front of and behind the camera. Quality of our reporting and the long trusted relationship with our viewers. Moving the
Starting point is 00:13:54 ABC News teams to our new state of the art building was a strategic decision that will allow for more collaboration and innovation. It will also allow for the company to make a lot more money, or at least save money, that they're already spending on this studio in Times Square. So be ready for that to go by-bye, although we'll see. We'll see if it actually does happen, because it's kind of a cool thing. But I feel like it's over in Times Square. So if you're thinking about visiting New York city and, you know, walking around Times Square to see, you know, all the stuff that you see,
Starting point is 00:14:33 Good Morning America will only be there for another year or two. And then, bye, good morning America. You can still walk down the street away and see the Today Show, but not Good Morning America. Sorry about it. Well, I thought we were going to wait until the strike was over, but apparently Netflix can't wait that long and they're going to raise prices again. Beginning, I don't know, already this week or it says price increases for consumers in the U.S., UK and France
Starting point is 00:15:05 starting Wednesday. So this was dated yesterday. If you're listening live, today is the 19th of October. This was dated yesterday, the 18th of October 2023, which was Wednesday. So it doesn't say today. So maybe
Starting point is 00:15:21 it starts next week. But for sure, it's starting soon. The U.S., the price for the basic plan the lowest tiered plan without advertising which is no longer available to new members will increase from 999 to 1199 okay so I if I'm a new member I can't get the basic tier without advertising okay the see the premium plan which allows users to watch in ultra HD on supported devices and download on
Starting point is 00:15:55 six supported devices at a time will increase from 1999 to 2299 a month. The plan with ads at $699 and a standard plan with ads at $1549. Wow. So, yeah, because I mean, you got to have to have the premium plan because you want to be able to watch it on multiple devices. If I want to watch something and then somebody else is watching something, I want to watch what I want to watch. But on the other hand, I'm about done with these apps raising prices. Times are tough for everyone. So you need to back off a little bit.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Okay, I know SAG After wants their money and WGA is getting their money and all of that. I get it. Everybody should get what they deserve. Everybody should get what they deserve. Not necessarily what they want. I guess everybody should get what they want. Yeah, go ahead. Go ahead, give what you want.
Starting point is 00:16:58 That doesn't mean it's going to last because, I mean, we're close to a really big breakpoint for the entertainment applications to my viewing devices. Speaking to apps, though, I was watching on Paramount Plus. I have the lowest tiered Paramount Plus thing.
Starting point is 00:17:17 I got it for free for a year, and then I kept it. I don't know what it is. It's like, I think it's $4 a month. It might be $5 a month. a month. Maybe whatever it is, it's too much for now. But they have the new Frazier on, and I thought, well, I'm dying for new content, so I'll go over there. I enjoyed the original Frazier. So let's go over and take a look at Frazier on Paramount Plus, the new version. Now, I went there last night,
Starting point is 00:17:43 so there's two episodes down or up that you can watch. And so I watched the first one. I did not watch the second one. It was okay. It was Frazier. It was the same kind of Frazier. I mean, Kelsey Grammar. I like Kelsey. And I like the process of him being this elitist who tries to pretend that he's not an elitist. And this really, really smart guy and is, you know, who now has a lot of money. Well, he always had, you know, money. But he's portrayed as, you know, a lot of money now. Because he was on TV forever in Chicago. Remember, the original show was Seattle, right? He was on the air radio doing, I'm listening radio show in Seattle. and those were the days when people in radio actually made money. Yeah. And so now the news show, he's back in Boston, right?
Starting point is 00:18:33 That's where Cheers was. So he's back in Boston. No way he could do Frasier again in Seattle. Holy cow. What's he going to have drink coffee with the homeless? Yeah, well, that could happen. It might be funny. And I just like, I liked some of the phrases in terms of the writing for Frasier.
Starting point is 00:18:51 So it was okay. If you liked Frazier, the original Frazier, you probably will enjoy the new latest edition of Frazier on Paramount Plus. That's my review. I don't know about you, but I love crime shows. Absolutely love crime shows. And I love crime shows with serial killers. I know. Don't look at me like that.
Starting point is 00:19:13 I just, I like them. And so I was reading something yesterday where a mental health expert, and I don't know, you know, how what a great expert. this is Dr. Thema Bryant. She warns that or he not sure how Dr. Thema Bryant identifies, so sorry. That is kind of unsettling news, actually. If you listen to listen or watch true crime shows. And I've got a couple of really interesting crime podcasts that I do listen to. According to psychologist, Dr. Theam of Brian,
Starting point is 00:19:48 people who find enjoyment in violent media enjoyment in violent media huh that's a weird way to phrase that might do so because it feels familiar based on their past experiences well I can say this I am not a serial killer not a rapist none of that but I enjoy why you know doing the show
Starting point is 00:20:15 okay so if you're some someone who feels soothed by watching crime shows before going to sleep, it could indicate a need for professional counseling. Okay, she's just out hawking for work. She needs customers. Dr. Brian also explained that some individuals confuse tranquility with being bored, especially if they've had a difficult upbringing. To achieve inner peace, it's important to embrace the discomfort, even if it feels unfamiliar.
Starting point is 00:20:50 Oh, Doc, thank you so much. Thank you. My response to that would be, if you're watching something on television and you enjoy it, just enjoy it. And remember that it's TV and it's not real. But, you know, if you feel that you need to get professional counseling, You can always email me chewing the fat at the blaze.com.
Starting point is 00:21:31 It's hockey season, and you can get anything you need delivered with Uber Eats. Well, almost, almost anything. So no, you can't get a nice rink on Uber Eats. But iced tea, ice cream, or just plain old ice? Yes, we deliver those. Goaltenders, no, but chicken tenders, yes. Because those are groceries, and we deliver those too. Along with your favorite restaurant food, alcohol, and other everyday essentials.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Order Uber Eats now. For alcohol, you must be legal drinking age. Please enjoy responsibly. Product availability varies by region. See app for details. Told you, congratulations to the Las Vegas Aces. Yes, I told you they were going to win the WNBA Championship, and they did. And I also will say that I was surprised that they lost to New York Liberty, but they went back and won in Vegas.
Starting point is 00:22:20 70 to 69 in game four. They won the final. So congratulations to the WNBA. Las Vegas Aces for winning back-to-back WNBA championships. Also, congratulations are in order to the NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. He just received his contract extension. I'm sure he was worried. I don't know where his next meal was going to come from.
Starting point is 00:22:45 I mean, his contract that he was working on now was set to expire in the spring of 2024. So, man, he barely had a year left. maybe less than a year on that contract he was working on. So he's got a new contract three years through March of 2027. Now they said the details of the extension really weren't released, but they said there's clauses in the contract for extension and succession and or succession. So he could pick somebody he wants to replace him if he wants to go away. Roger is 64 now.
Starting point is 00:23:21 It's reported that he earned last couple of, a year, $63.9 million. Now, the way this is worded, okay, so he reportedly earned $63.9 million for the 2019-20 and 2020-20-20-20-20-1 season. So is that $31 million, you know, almost $32 million a year? Probably. Yeah, okay. So I'm sure that he's going to be making more than that through the next few years. And he's worth it. Look, I mean, the NFL is, you know, a team is selling for $6 billion since he's been at the helm. So good for him.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Now, there's been, you know, plenty of criticism to go around. And he should, and he takes it. He's the commissioner. I mean, he's got off-field issues that, you know, need to be handled and the whole social justice thing. And we've got the referee thing that needs to be taken care of. And so, you know, I get it. There's some issues with Roger. But since he's been at the helm,
Starting point is 00:24:24 the NFL has skyrocketed globally, globally. Now, he started as commissioner in 2006, right? I think that was right. Yeah, yeah. He succeeded Paul Tagliabu in 2006. He began back as an intern in 1982 under then Commissioner Pete Roselle. So he started in 82 as an intern and then took over in 2006, once Tagliabu. Leibu ended his commissionership.
Starting point is 00:24:57 That's amazing. What a career for Roger Goodell. And I will say this, NFL. If, you know, if you find yourself tomorrow thinking, yeah, we probably shouldn't assign that deal. Roger's going to work now for, I don't know, 40 million a year. We could get Jeff Fisher for $25 million a year, and he could run this thing. So I'm willing to throw my head in the ring.
Starting point is 00:25:18 Okay? All right, good. You know, if you've ever, I don't know, flown on an airplane, you know what kind of nightmare it is? boarding, right, and how they board and move passengers in and I will take off, if you have seats in A to B, you could board now. And so
Starting point is 00:25:34 apparently United Airlines and you would think, in the top of your head you think, well, why don't we just board the people in the back first? And then we'll go from the back to the front and then we're good. No, we can't do that. So now United Airlines
Starting point is 00:25:50 said they're going to start boarding passengers in economy class. with window seats first. Huh. Okay, so they're designed to reduce the time planes spend sitting on the ground. I'm a fan of that. Apparently, the airline has, you know, been testing this out,
Starting point is 00:26:10 and the plan is called Wilma. I know, I know. When you think of a plan that's going to save you time and have people board an airplane faster, you think of Wilma. For window, middle, and aisle. All right. So apparently they shaved up to two minutes off a boarding time. A whole two minutes. Now, variations of Wilma have existed over many years. Yeah, I get it. So it spreads out along the aisle of the airplane until the more people can put their luggage away at the same time. That speeds up the boarding process. Yeah, yeah, I got it. So the change will begin with passengers in the fourth boarding group. Customers in first class and business class will see no change. in their routine and there's also no change for those with priority boarding privileges
Starting point is 00:26:59 including travelers with disabilities on the company minors active duty military and families with children who are two and under so it's just that easy and you're going to shave so much time off man oh man oh man with multiple customers are on the same economy reservation such as families they're going to be able to board together as well so don't be i would say you you're preparing to shave off a hole, I don't know, 30 seconds. But 30 seconds is 30 seconds. Am I right? Who's with me?
Starting point is 00:27:35 Okay, now we're talking. We have another place that gets medications delivered by drone. So College Station, Texas. That's the home of Texas, A&M, by the way, can now receive certain prescription medications by drone from Amazon pharmacy. Wow, eligible customers can access more than 500 medications. and have a drone drop them off at their doorstep. The medications will arrive in less than 60 minutes at no additional cost to customers.
Starting point is 00:28:08 Wow. So that's pretty huge. I don't know how they're going to work that out, but I'm all for it, except the whole front door thing. You need the Amazon Prime delivery shoot on the roof so that they can just fly over. So Amazon said it's drones are equipped with cameras that help them identify objects such as people and animals,
Starting point is 00:28:26 uh, thank you. Uh, the drones fly between 40 meters and 120 meters in an airspace with minimal obstacles. Once the drone determines that the delivery space is clear, it will descend and release the package containing the customer's medication. But if the drone detects obstacles in the delivery area, it will return to the Amazon fulfillment center and reattempt the delivery later.
Starting point is 00:28:52 Yeah. So if it comes by and says, nope, not now. So, nope, looks like somebody's going on down there. Yeah, there's some kind of obstacle. I'm going back to the fulfillment center. So are we just programming the drones to go where you want them to go? I guess Amazon is saying they've successfully delivered hundreds of household items in College Station.
Starting point is 00:29:19 Boy, I'd like to talk to somebody, see how that works. You sign up for Prime Air and complete a yard service. Okay, to become eligible for drone delivery. But do they program it? I want to talk to Amazon. I'll find out more for you because I need to know. And since I need to know, you need to know. I want to know how they're programming the drones to go where the delivery needs to go.
Starting point is 00:29:48 You know, when you think of the drones, you think of a guy standing there with his drone stick. Yeah. Is that a drone sticker? You're just happy to see me. You know, directing the drone to go. That's not the case. Right. So they've got to just be programmed.
Starting point is 00:30:05 Hey, this goes to Bill's house. And Bill's already done his little customer survey and completed his yard photographs. And he's signed up for prime air. So we're going to drop off his medication. And then if his grandkids is playing out the front yard, we just go, nope, you don't get your medication until later. to go there's an obstruction in the yard take care i'll reattempt delivery later will you will you reattempted later after i call 8 000 times i don't know we'll see how it's because that's fascinating
Starting point is 00:30:39 to me how that works and i want to know how they're letting these drones go if you are a drone expert for amazon uh email me chewing the fat at the blaze dot com i want to know how this is happening because you just don't, I mean, if we're just programming a drone, and I guess, yeah, with AI, and you know, you program the drone to go where you want it to go. It's already mapped out the entire college station area, and they're already delivering goods and services. They're doing it in other areas around the country,
Starting point is 00:31:10 so I'm sure that's probably what it is. So if you need a gig, I would go to work for Amazon programming drones. Just type in, go to Bill's House for $20 an hour. you'd probably make it more than that actually for Amazon but it's not a bad gig I would guess I would guess it's not union okay all right
Starting point is 00:31:30 back off me plus I want to know who has who's the air drone traffic controller or controllers those are the ones are they flying it are they programming them when the drone decides hey I can't deliver here
Starting point is 00:31:46 does it send a message back to the drone traffic controllers so that they can take a look at the cameras on the drone and decide whether it can deliver, or does the drone just do it on its own with AI? And it's all programmed and it does it itself. I have questions. All right, I'll stop thinking about it,
Starting point is 00:32:07 but I have questions. And I want to know about the airspace for the drones. I know they talked about how high it flies and in unobstructed areas, but I want to know how they control that as well. So I got to find somebody that knows. So that
Starting point is 00:32:26 you could know, because I want to be able to tell you, but I do want to know. Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. Oh, what? Sounds like Ojo time. Play Ojo? Great idea. Feel the fun with all the latest slots in live casino games and with no wagering requirements.

Starting point is 00:33:21 According to findings published in nature aging, and I, man, I cannot get enough of reading nature aging. They offer clues that could aid the development and treatment for humans with fertility. issues and aging issues, right? So a molecule called spermadine. Yeah, that's what I said. Spermodyne, right? Spermodyne.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Yes. The molecule called spermadine, first isolated from sperm, but now known to have functions in many types of cells, has been shown to lengthen lifespan in yeast, flies, worms, and human immune cells. So increased dietary intake of spermidine has also been linked with the reduction
Starting point is 00:34:09 of age-related problems in laboratory animals, including cardiovascular disease in mice and a cognitive decline in fruit flies. But it doesn't say but its effects on
Starting point is 00:34:25 aging osatis were unclear. Oocytes. Yeah, that's what I said. Oocyte. So, but the effects of aging? Oocyte. Well, we're unclear. So the study
Starting point is 00:34:39 uncovers the molecule's potential to address major hurdles in reproductive medicine and also lengthen lifespan. So that's kind of cool. I would say that young or old, you may want to up the old dose of spermadine.
Starting point is 00:34:56 Maybe that's just me. Speaking of health, I see see where they now say AI can detect diabetes. AI can detect diabetes just by listening to you talk for 10 seconds. That's what a new study says. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:17 This new study by Click Labs published in Mayo Clinic Proceedings Digital Health, and I, man, you cannot, when that gets released, you cannot tear me away from the Mayo Clinic Proceedings, digital health, especially when I see that it's a study by, by Click Labs. They showed an a, probably should actually, I've got to stop making fun of people doing that, showed an 89% accuracy rate for diagnoses in women and 86% for men.
Starting point is 00:35:50 That's a huge breakthrough. Our research highlights significant vocal variations between individuals with and without type 2 diabetes and could transform how the medical community screens for diabetes. Yeah, just speak into the computer for 10 seconds, please. Ah, yeah, you're sick. Okay, so what's going to happen, right? I mean, if you're the other, if you're the 14% or the 11% that doesn't have it, are they going to believe you?
Starting point is 00:36:20 I don't know. Current methods of detection can require a lot of time, travel and cost. Voice technology has the potential to remove these barriers in the title. I mean, we're pretty soon, we know what you're thinking. So we can tell by the way you're talking what you're thinking. researchers had 267 individuals who did or did not have type 2 diabetes they record phrases on their smartphone
Starting point is 00:36:43 six times a day for two weeks more than 18,000 recordings were analyzed for over 14 different acoustic features which were different among diabetics and non-diabetics participants also provided basic health data like age, height, weight yeah signal processing technologies were able to perceive certain notes of vocal
Starting point is 00:37:04 pitch that do not register with the human ear. These hidden sounds provided the necessary clues. Wow. Our research underscores the tremendous potential of voice technology in identifying type two diabetes and other health conditions, I bet. I mean, that's a good deal for Click. They're on top of it. Wow. The next step for Click is replicating the study and expanding the vocal search to look for pre-diabetes, hypertension, and along with my favorite, and more. So, I mean, there you go. There you go. Talking to the mic, and we'll tell you what illness you have.
Starting point is 00:37:44 Pretty incredible. And I'll leave you with something else that's pretty incredible. So Victoria's Secret and Pink Brand president said the brand is going to go back to sexiness. Yeah, the company's woke push, that really hasn't translated. into increased sales. So, in fact, it's caused the sales to plummet. So during a meeting last weekend, the old New York City, the lingerie brand head told investors, yeah, our new direction, we're going back into sexiness.
Starting point is 00:38:20 He didn't say back, he just said, is sexiness. And increasing the lingerie, swimwear, and activeware lines. So we've had just about enough of the old. woke push because nobody's buying anything. We're going back to sexiness. And sexiness could be inclusive, can celebrate the diverse experiences of our customers, and that's what we're focused on. The brand will increase its sleepwear and lingerie piece offerings like slip dresses and corset tops, along with my favorite and more. So have a nice day, wokeness at Victoria's Secret.
Starting point is 00:39:01 It's, I mean, I was going to say it's about time, but I know, how dare me. So just let me say that while Victoria's Secret is going to get rid of the wokeness and go back to sexiness because they want to actually sell their products and that what made their product huge was sexiness, makes one go
Starting point is 00:39:25 huh, huh. We're going to go back to sexiness. Huh. And a quick reminder, and I need to remind myself of this more and more every day. When you focus on problems, you will have more problems. When you focus on possibilities, you will have more opportunities. When you focus on problems, you will have more problems. When you focus on possibilities, you will have more opportunities.
Starting point is 00:39:57 Let's try to all do that today, shall we? Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts. You may have heard of the sex cult nexium and the famous actress who went to prison for her involvement, Alison Mack, but she's never told her side of the story until now. People assume that I'm like this pervert.
Starting point is 00:40:36 My name is Natalie Robamed, and in my new podcast, I talked to Allison to try to understand how she went from TV actor to cult member. How do you feel about having been involved? in bringing sexual trauma to other people. I don't even know how to answer that question.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Allison After Nexium from CBC's Uncover is available now on Spotify.
