"Agitated. Though is is a tapper disease to have at home. I don't know if there's as much of a choice of what you're talking about that makes sense right you know. What would it mean. They've been be better. What would be the percentage of people that have in in in the elderly. You know how many people have these mental health issues like like alzheimer's. What right now in orange county we have. You know. Eighty eighty thousand alzheimer's patients. But we have grown leaps and bounds. But it's as you get to eighty five unfortunately You know half of the population has some form of dementia at eighty five years old and some of its mild you know you have a mild form of dementia just where the person has short term memory loss and mild cognitive impairment. He might need to be reminded allies they may not be able to take their medications and league reminders. But those are mild cases but then some people do get alzheimer's disease which is a form of dementia. That is a much more difficult disease at eighty. Five you're really at risk. This is something five by could be left. Okay okay jackie here. Here's a question that i'm sure. Some listeners are are especially the ones that are that are maybe not that many that are my age but that are getting closer. I'm seventy one. What do i need to be doing now. That i can ensure or i can. I can mitigate me being alzheimer patient at eighty five years old. I think great question so there are things you can do and your physician should be at least. Are you doing physical once a year. That hurt to hurt. Yeah once a year you need to talk about the risk of dementia. Once you get about sixty five you know to say no. I don't wanna get this. What are some things i could do. And they're probably going to tell you to exercise to eat right The mediterranean diet is famous for healthy aging and the blue came. Be tell me the mediterranean diets. That's not and fisher. Say like wine. Yeah so you might want to check your level. So older adults with low d do get dementia and We find that it's a very big risk factor so your vitamin d levels should be analyzed. And if it's low take a supplement but not if it's not low only if it is and then take a full late. B twelve tests to see what that level is. If it's low you have to take. Because that's a risk factor with getting dementia and then another risk factor fish oil. What's your dha epa level. Is it as high as it. low If you need to take a prescription fish oil you know whichever one. Your physician believes is appropriate. Holy cow sunny like a doctor here with all these terms. I used to hearing it from all of our physicians that for our wonderful Residents just go ahead. Please please go ahead now. So so there's great physicians who know a lot about dementia and there are some that no nothing so if you have one. That doesn't know much you might want to look around for one that you know deals more with older adults and to check d. level and b twelve and full lay and thyroid. So your thyroid is off. You could get memory loss. And so there are things that mask dementia and those are reversible versus irreversible dementia. We categorize categorizes gerontologist into those two ways so the irreversible ones you want to. Of course those are sad and terrible but the reversible ones such as vitamin b twelve deficiency fully deficiency thyroid deficiency. Those can be corrected or water on the brain. that's called hydrocephalus. So hydrocephalus water on the brain can mask alzheimer's and you will get the exact same symptoms. You'll look at an older adult and say oh. He has alzheimer's in his eyes may be watering and he may be leaning and shuffling with his feet. Those are signs of hydrocephalus that alzheimer's patients don't often have but in any way the doctor should be ruling those things out with a cat scan or mri to say okay. Your dad has changed recently but he has some watery eyes and we wanna rule that out so good. Physician does a really great ruling out process and does an mri but there are some physicians that do nothing. And that's when we get into ageism and we see physicians who just say well. Your mom probably has alzheimer's there's nothing we can do about it but that's not true. There are medications for memory loss and alzheimer's and there are there is a ruling out process to diagnose it that we just talked about we wanted to look at irreversible and reversible causes to memory loss. And how can we make sure. We're not giving a blanket. Diagnosis doctors aren't doing that and Not discriminating against older people. 'cause really poor medical care toward an older adult especially with dementia is discrimination. We we shouldn't be doing that to them. They can't speak for themselves so we need to assist that older adult. Who has the disease and make sure we're doing the great work up on them. So jackie why would a doctor do that. why is it just is it. I hate you use the word laziness because doctors worked so hard. but it's just it could be there's so many Theories is terror threat. They made feel terrorized that they don't have the knowledge and or they could be fearing their own. You know aging process fearing getting alzheimer's and family members could be the same way so they made nor it they ignore the symptoms in the. Because they don't want to go there so they're fearful it could also be that physicians are very busy and and one study Showed that physicians would rather take on any disease. They went through aids. Huntington's all these diseases except alzheimer's that was last disease. They wanted to take a patient. This is an ama study. Another study showed that Med students nev. I mean rarely do they say i wanna be geriatric. Medicine wehrley It's the last pick. So i think because alzheimer's patients are so difficult to they take more time a lot more. I just told you they have to rule out all these things they have to You know make sure the family's okay. They have to give great suggestions. Like you need to maybe stop driving. It's such a harder job as a physician. Ice soom to take on an alzheimer's patient than someone with normal aging who how do they even normally aging cutted. They measure success. I mean is is it seems like it so that your comfort. Okay go ahead. They see an older adult. Who's comfortable. They're helping the family may be giving them referrals to alzheimer's orange county support group If they try their best.

"Yeah i would say that. This that's seen is the first hint that we get that sydney is not the class class. He principal guy he's been trying to Portray himself as the facade is kind of it at least tainted there because even though he doesn't even though he does say no understood sleeping with you. Yeah about not there. I think in a when he's talking to her at the at the table where he says he doesn't talk. He hasn't talked to his kids in a while. And i start in. My mind is well. This guy's got to do some things really fucked up that it's kids won't even talk him and he has so he's not all of a sudden the the guy he's been pretending to be there are some real fuck ups in his life before that his kids won't even talk to me doesn't know what kids live in the script. There's a there's another scene where he calls his ex wife after that doesn't and it doesn't go well and i agree with cutting out. I don't need it. I don't wanna know. I can figure it out on my own and there's also flashbacks to His Being friends with john's father and the scene where he kills john's father. Oh through the active. That would ruin the movie. If that way i read the street scene and i thought i don't need any of this i don't want i don't wanna look at him as a young man and i don't need this at all. I think you can fill it in the acting so good that i don't need you don't you don't need all that stuff there. It's all in the face like it's one of the great faces and one of the things this movie does really well. And cisco Mentioned the review. But they're absolutely right. which is the way it uses. Insert shots an insert is where like you know. Someone's handing someone to something and you get close up on their hands on one of my favorite insert shots in anything in this movie. It's when after the hotel scene. Where where sydney cleans up. He then throws the gun and the Handcuffs in the sewer and we get the slow motion close up sliding into the sewer. And it's so elegant and we just keep getting people shaking hands and close up and all this stuff and you start to notice how important all that stuff is. Normally inserts are like a real bother and in fact a lot of inserts are shot with the actual actors in the blood on the sleeve that he has cover up. Yeah i noticed the normal. You would never think about an insert shot. I mean it wouldn't be so obvious about like. Oh and here's the reality of this year's the here because we don't that when actress don't really do in search is not available or it has to be thought of later or we need to okay. Show the guy looking at his watch so we can see the time all that stuff. I think it's important and i certainly did. I shot entrance with my actual actors. Because you really get a sense of how people behave and what. They're doing their life and get it can get a little phony. I remember writing about a movie many years ago. With luke wilson and sam jackson called meeting evil in which all of the hand close ups were someone who is much much older than luke wilson. So it was always distracting when you'd cut to the hands and it'd be a guy who was like eighty five years old so there's a video on my website called like i think like luke wilson's hands or something that i remember. It's narrow anymore. But it's just a series of insert of luke wilson. Then you see the inserts of the hands what away support that seems a detail that is a week excuse for not There is no good excuse for not getting a younger hand model. Because if all you shooting the and you don't have to be a great you don't have to get laurence olivier to do that stuff. You can get a younger man right. No i totally agree let's see I think we're at. I think we played the clip. Play all the clips. And then i. And then. I started talking about the friends of eddie coyle and i talked about bob lambert We talked about the differences in the script And jimmy slash damn like his his acceptance of six thousand dollars which i found very interesting we talked about cigarettes. And coffee. courtney vance. We wanted sort of different order than i pictured but we got we cover most of it Is there anything else you wanna you wanna cover or oh yeah just what is because in the end as you say it's it's You said it was kinda depressing having lived that life. I don't think it was necessary. Depressing i just think it's kind of To me it was well. This is a slice of that lifetime. Nobody if you don't live that life you really don't see this much of it and you know but degenerate gamblers who lived that life Is one of those you know. What was that story Most more stories than the naked city. that you know those those gambling halls casinos. At least when i was. I'm i haven't been in one in twelve years now but up until that point in my life where i don't there. Are this that story every other slot machine. There's a people like this very real people and that's my take away from it and so yeah i you know you're not happy but you realize allowed world is like that With their daily if you haven't seen it The best gambling movie ever made in my mind is called california's split Robert moved from the early seventies which is on amazon prime in the extended cut and features some the extended. Cut has some cheech and chong in it. Which i know is helpful for your. The view. did the other day the theatrical cut that you can get on. dvd is missing the cheech. And chong bit because they add some audio from cheech and chong bit and it's on amazon prime in the full cut and it is probably the i would say the best movie about gambling's with george segal and elliott gould. And it's about even the lower rent version of what you're talking about my father's favorite favorite movies gambling movies His other one was. And i forget the name of it now but David you'll hanson was in it and richard dreyfuss were were a play it What's it called. Oh said the horse racing move here. Does what my father's favorite gambling movies and my father was he. Was you know it was sydney. So so you but have you seen california split Not watched it. It was on my house. A couple of my father had had I think it was on. Hbo or something when he was running but he probably watched it like twenty times on and take a look at it on on amazon. Prime it is. It is a masterpiece. It an understanding of gambling and understanding of like the compulsion and that that Is really just. It's a remarkable movie. Highly highly recommended. I remember what it was called is called. let it ride. let it ride. I thought yeah. It's just seemed like to Too easy for to be that. But that was i guess. It can not a realistic movie. But like a but a sense of if you're on a roll kind of thing yeah. It was a realistic in the sense of a captured. The i can't walk away. I you know dell compulsive And that was part of my grownups completely. I mean when watch watch california split which george segal just died probably his best work whenever elliott gould was in a movie that altman directed which he did california split off in his best work that in the long goodbye as his best work and mash So really just a very stark funny loose movie but like with real understanding of of that like it was written by a real gambler. He had a sense of like right away. Like if you're into that like what. What is it like lower class gambling look like they nail that within the first five minutes the and also just like how people it's just about nothing it's just about like we're gonna i'm gonna win six bucks and i'm so angry about it because someone might steal at six bucks from that kind of thing.

From The Ashes With the Michels From Backyard Leisure
"So day on these retailer podcast. I have josh and earl michaels. They are a father and son. Team in indiana. Are you her right now. We are they are the guys who run backyard leisure with their main location in toronto and they have two locations in illinois. So thanks for coming on the podcast today. Guys thank you so this is a rare occasion. Where i'm not sure i have ever interviewed either of you before for the magazine or the podcast anything so this is kind of exciting because i feel like i get a whole fresh story that even i have heard before we're honored always start off getting people's backgrounds. Where did you start out. How did you get into the industry. How did you end up working in this company together. I guess you're probably the to start with for that all right well. How long do we have. The podcasts can go on for hours and hours. So it's really it's really depends on how chatty you're feeling alright so in one thousand nine hundred ninety eight. My wife and i decided we wanted to zibo in our backyard. And i couldn't find anybody to build one by one from so i actually got a lead from a little company and southern indiana. That makes them. They referred me to a dealer quite a distance away and that particular dealer. Didn't want to deal with me from the distanced. So i called the company back and they told me well. The only way you can buy one is if you're a dealer so i asked them what that took and they told me so. We bought two. And i lived out in the country on a pretty well traveled road and We put one in the backyard where we wanted it and then we put one out front and i came up with the name backyard leisure and we opened a business account with thousand dollars. We sold our first gazebo to an old farmer. Who's eighty five year. Old wife had always wanted one. He came and bought it and took it home. He brought his tractor in his pickup truck and trailer and loaded up. Because he didn't want to pay me to deliver it so he took it home and put a big red bow on it. I suppose and gave it to his wife christmas so that was actually it is. That was our very first sale and then my career was in the insurance industry. And i was still active in the insurance industry so we started out very small. I put it a small display lot brought in a couple of more gazebos and some outdoor furniture and we sold some fairly successfully. I decided that. I would go ahead and expand that a little bit. We rented some ground and The prime retail area of tara. Hold indiana i put in zibo displays there. I've got a big sign with an eight hundred toll. Free number and i started selling gazebos by appointment one day. We got a call from a manufacturer. That's here in the midwest and they asked if we would consider selling hot tubs. I said well yell but we don't have any place to sell them so at that time there was a little corner not too far away. From where are gazebo display and tear ho was we ended up renting that it was a two car garage and small building that we used as a office and a small store where people could buy. Chemicals is very small so we did that. I believe that was from two thousand three until two thousand seven. That's how we sold hot tubs. I can't imagine you knew what you're getting yourself into with hot tubs because gazebos and even patio furniture. You kinda you sell it. You drop it off. And that's the individ hot tubs. There's a lot more touch points between the dealer and consumer that's right. We did have some inkling what we'd need. We hired a young man to help with our deliveries and our service aspect of it. Then i also had an older gentleman that would man the office building and sell for us. We were fairly successful on a small level. You know i mean enough to where it didn't cause me to thank well. I need to stop doing this. So in two thousand six. We decided if we're to do this. We need to actually find a place to do it. You can't sell hot tubs out of a two car garage forever. So we re released a six thousand square foot building. That was actually just right next door to where we had been operating. We lease that and we moved in there. After a year of being there under lease we bought that property and as time went by of course we expanded our offerings and so forth and then of course in twenty eighteen we had the fire and then once that happened we ended up moving into the location that we are here when you really decided to go. Full force into hot tubs. It was what you year or two before the recession before kind of hot tub sales plummeted at least across the country. I mean what was that. Like for you guys. I mean you can have had gone all in got the six thousand square foot showroom and next thing you know the whole country is in this economic depression right. Let's actually kind of one of the things that we think has helped us to be successful. is that we. We didn't really experienced the glory days. Were told you know back in the early two thousands that it was pretty easy to sell. Hot tubs swell. At that time we were. We were nothing really. You know so we were operating on a shoestring and you know. By the time everybody else was experiencing something of a crash for us. We were probably still actually growing a little bit because we were so new. You could consider difficult time to start but it may be was in the end Better for us because we we didn't become accustomed to an easy experience with selling out to us we were. We were so new that it was just normal.

Economist Scott Irwin: How Chinese Buying Is Causing a Boom in Agricultural Commodities
"We're going to dive into the whole issue of food price inflation as well as the new dallying hog futures contract by poplar request. We're going to be speaking to scott irwin. He's an agricultural economist at the university of illinois scott. Welcome to the show be here. Cisco in addition to being an agricultural economist. You're also an actual farmer from iowa. Is that correct. Well try technically speaking. I don't actually get much tractor. Driving and physical participation but i. It's an interesting situation I from the landlord's side of my family's farm out niwa my eighty five year old mother and i provide the management and do all the marketing of the crops. So i lived through the epsom downs of the grain markets. Like everybody else plus a get to try to work the market with my card playing eighty five year old mother that sounds extremely satisfying. And fun right now. You know sort of mentioned this rally that we're seeing as pretty intense across various soft commodities agriculture commodities. What are you give us the sort of basic big picture of what's going on what's driving This bid china perfect is that is Sixty does the yeah. It's not the only factor of course but in the market that's the number one driving force we've seen a Justice explosion in a grain exports to china basically started about last july and as shown little signs of cooling off some of that related to their phase one trade agreement that was negotiated. A in the previous trump administration Some of it also related to rebuilding of their hog her because of the african swine fever and then some of it is also Related to just their desire to rebuild some of their reserve stocks as well. But that's so one thing. I always wondered about you. See these headlines that china is building up its grain reserves. And i don't know i i can kind of see. Why countries would do that. But i i always wonder how useful those reserves are over the long term and how they actually use them. Can you give us a sort of like potted summary of what building up reserves actually means well classic example of something a sounds good in theory and rarely works well in practice. We have many decades of experience with different kinds of reserve schemes. Here in the us They've tried it metals grains and all sorts of commodities soft commodities over the years so they're called buffer-stock. Ski seems and the problem. Is you know the idea. Is you build it. You know it's kind of the seven fat years seven lean years a biblical example put in practice and so that all sounds good in theory but it all becomes very political and Governments have tendency to not want to release the buffer stocks when they really ought to to You know maybe calm markets down because farmers are mad because you're driving the price down So it's just it's a deeply political and it rarely works as a well as it sounds in theory.

"Sullen and unsmiling political hack and republican senators are going to stay with him. They will not win again. That's a pretty. That's some pretty strong words. there can now. I'm going to turn it over to you. But i do want to say just one thing into this because again i have. I have a bit to fight here. And that's to say that if trump if he was listening. And i know he's not that my response to this little bit of statement he has here is trump. He's the embarrassment he's been the embarrassment to the conservative and libertarian alliance. That has always held together. The republican party and more than any other single person has shaken my fundamental belief of myself as a republican and so i think trump is one who created a tent that has included some of the most despicable groups including neo nazis and trying to bring them and successfully in many cases into the party. And i think that trump's going to go down without question in history along the likes of. Andrew jackson is the worst president in american history. So i've been pretty clear on where i stand but but Ken what do you think about this ongoing republican war and what it might mean for party realignment for politics in the upcoming twenty two thousand twenty two midterm elections. What do you think about this. I mean this is. This is some pretty intense public feuding. Yeah well i just got. I mean answered johnson. Enter jackson is still on the twenty dollar bill people. Some some people think he's a good president. Listen if you mass genocide people you're going to have to be in my book down just a little bit. So he's on the twenty dollar bill. I have you listen. He he is the single handed cause for how many countless other genocide i just. I can't get over that one. So i ain't him. Johnson is bad. I don't. I'm not trying to suggest that it was not. He's not my president. That's for sure. But i would have wreaked. Probably andrew johnson. James buchanan even a little lower. So i think trump. Yeah he's certainly going to be thought of that breath well in terms of civil war. You know it's a pretty one sided war because i think Mcconnell has absolutely no interest in even engaging in whatever war is going on at all. He's he has not responded. He's not going to respond respond. He doesn't need to respond. he doesn't i think he has said he's never gonna speak to trump again and he's probably never gonna speak of trump again. He's just. This nonsense has no impact on mcconnell at all even the idea that trump says he's going to primary mcconnell mcconnell just got re elected to a six-year term in twenty twenty if he wants to run again in twenty twenty six when he's about eighty five years old..

User Coalition Fights To Keep Chinese App WeChat In U.S. Market
"President trump recently issued an executive order that would effectively ban the Chinese APP we chat in the United States starting. In September the order says the APP poses a threat to national security, but is a coalition of users who are trying to intervene. Here's NPR's John Ru which cloud you practices corporate and commercial law in the San Francisco Bay area most of his clients Chinese and they all use we chat so I maintain develop clients through. All, the time I. probably spend two hours each and every day. It's also how he communicates with his sister and eighty five year old mother back in China's Hunan Province. Her Mama when trump issued executive order Jew and other lawyers who also served the Chinese speaking community were alarmed. They discussed it in a we chat group naturally and decided to fight it in court. So they set up a nonprofit called the US we chat users. One of the lawyers from the we chat group she says, they plan to file a suit in the coming days. The group she says has no connection to the Chinese government or tencent the Chinese company that owns Wechat we are not interested in the politics behind us but one the government tries to resolve a problem they should try to minimize the harm. The executive order is the latest in a string of measures. The trump administration has taken against China in recent weeks. It prohibits quote transactions with which at and ten. The term is open to some interpretation, but legal experts expect that APP stores at the very least will have to remove we chat. Angus knee is a lawyer in Seattle. The executive arm is while with its rights determine that something is or is not a threat to American national security, but it's reasoning especially when it's actions have such a negative impact on such a racially kind of based minority needs to be well justified in while supported China's so-called great firewall blocks many Western communication and social media APPS making indispensable. But we chat sensors, sensitive messages, and like every other APP in China, it would be required to hand over information. Should the government ask they're definitely? Security risks to people using those technologies and we need to address that I just wish it was done. Really Ron. Debate is director of the citizen lab and Internet watchdog at the University of Toronto. What the trump administration did as a way I think almost like a nuclear option fighting in court will be tough though Bobby Chesney is a national security law expert at the University of Texas. Oh it's a hugely uphill battle. He says it'll be hard to win a case arguing that the executive order curtails free speech came without due process or amounts to the government taking away property or livelihood. The same holds for a case that says, the government hasn't supplied enough evidence of the risks that we poses a judge is also going to save them, but maybe that somehow helps them to different court bringing a suit raises the profile of the issue, and just might influence how the government interprets the word transaction and ultimately enforces the order. If the legal challenge doesn't pan out businesses like launchings restaurant chain easterly will have to make major adjustments. Hunan style eatery offers group deals, takes orders and stays in touch with thousands of customers in the bay area through we chat. With no dining in because of the pandemic Wong says, easterly is even more reliant on we chat. H.

Word nerds have been using the a scrabble APP for many years now it's a great way to fill the time and challenge your mind as you deal with the stress of corona virus and zoom calls. My Mom who's eighty five years old with an incredible mind for words plays every day. Unfortunately despite America's urgent need for things to pass the time right now, the folks Hasbro decided to kill ea scrabble. For most people. It stopped working on June sixth.

Ben Shapiro
The Anthony Fauci controversy
"But we begin with doctor Anthony Fauci before the Senate and this cause all sorts of controversy not frankly I'm sort of perturbed at the controversy the reason being I don't think that she's a bad guy I don't think that algae is out to ruin the American economy I don't think they think that he's a malign influence on president trump I think the doctor felt she is up in the mail just and his job is the epidemiologist his job is to be a doctor of public health when it comes to pandemics his job is not to balance all of the risks and rewards when you go to a doctor you look for diagnosis usually the doctor puts before you a fair number of choices and it is now your determination as to which choice you seek right the doctor puts before you have cancer god forbid and the doctor says to you okay so you're the choices you could have a surgery here the rest and then the possibilities you have to know therapy here the rest of the possibilities are depending on your age maybe the best thing is to sort of let it take its course you're eighty five years old in your prostate cancer maybe the treatment is actually worse than the disease and I have a bunch of choices in front of you does not the doctor's job to make the final determination when it comes to public policy making our elected officials are reluctant to make exactly these determinations why well because they're answerable two weeks they are answerable to us there as we the people the fact that we are now looking to sort of delegate all decision making authority to the experts is V. is the tail end of the progress of the year a stupidity that suggested that if we just gave all power to the quote unquote experts in government and everything would magically we solved the experts are good for experts are good for exports are good for knowing a lot of things that one particular subject but they're not famous for knowing lots of things that lots of particular subject if you ask doctor about you about Keynesian verses Milton Friedman ask economics my guess is that he wouldn't know much more than the average guy but if you ask me about disease vectors and probably knows a lot more than the average guy asking him to be the sole policy maker is really foolhardy and even doctor felt she knows this and so we sort of moved from the left to appoint Dr founded in government when he's not head of government what to use him as a club to wield against elected officials again are answerable all of whom are answerable tossed right the fact that people must want to do that and the fact that the people on the right are responding to that by blending felt use the voucher is to blame for lawmakers abdicating their duty and just pointing to vouching on what he's going to solve all our problems it's stupidity frankly I think the doctor felt she would be the first person to say that it's stupidity he is there to provide medical knowledge and guidance and then it is up to us to determine what risks we're willing to undertake as a society what this means that when people I talk about you in public health experts testify publicly they're always going to testify on behalf of caution because their job is first do no harm on the public health level not an economic level not on the freedom level not a constitutional level not a governmental level the first job is to say how do we save the most lives well into middle of pandemic the easy answer if you're not looking at any of the other factors is stay home until we have some sort of therapeutic or until we have some sort of acting but of course there are other factors to take into account when it comes to public policy making such as the fact that we may never have that team or therapeutic may not be all that effective and the fact that thirty million people lost their jobs in the last six weeks and there are countervailing cost to people losing their jobs losing their livelihood a hundred thousand small businesses shutting out this is where it's at for public of our public officials the people who actually elect elected officials to weigh the evidence the doctor vouchers providing his advice but the evidence provided by economist with the values that we hold dear as a nation I mean it just takes a second for example for a second in a wartime what if you were to ask a public health expert in war time what is the best policy public health experts job is to save as many lives as possible so the public health experts say best strategy here is probably not to do the war right no war is good because that means few people are gonna get shot and killed but if you are not an official in his World War two you know that they're gonna be a certain number of people we're gonna have to risk their lives on the beaches of Normandy it is not to suggest that the public health experts are wrong about everything this is to suggest that everybody has their own specific area of expertise and we're this means a broad area of expertise is really foolish in a Republic we rely on the notion that a diffuse level a value judgment among the American population is gonna be better than any one individual's values the American people overall are going to be wiser about weighing all these factors in balance when they elect people then just one guy who's part of the bureaucracy we'll get to a doctor found had to say is it in that light I don't think what you had to say was all that controversial but I think they're politicians were completely looking to abdicate responsibility for their actual decision making role in American politics right now and simply shouting data and science and public health officials without you saying look what will brexit saying look at all the scientists are saying Hey that's not your only job is supposed to take all that into consideration and then you are supposed to wear all of the values that are currently under consideration plus you're supposed to determine the the level of certainty that public health officials are expressing about the view in the future about the future generally because experts maybe more expert than you but that does not mean that one hundred percent certain knowledge of the

World Economic Forum: What to Watch For
"Today's episode. The World Economic Forum in Davos for forty plus years the world's leaders in business and politics had convened in the Swiss Alps for a whirlwind four days of meetings interviews panels and performances Andrew. Have you packed yet for Davos pact. That's actually this. After this project I caught up with Andrew just just before we both boarded a flight commercial to this year's World Economic Forum so Davos is the home of the World Economic Forum which has a long history. This is a group group that started in about nineteen seventy-one so almost fifty years of this global event for people who've never been there before. How would you describe it? What could you expect to see in terms of our our coverage this is the super bowl for business and policy leaders probably the greatest density of CEO's and government leaders in one place all traipsing through the snow together over the course of three or four days and a lot of the business leaders are engaging engaging conversations that are maybe a little bit different than what they're doing from a day to day basis we have a lot of discussions about about capitalism a lot of discussions about environmentalism mm-hmm about poverty around the world What kinds of conversations do you expect to hear? I think the single biggest topic you're going to hear about out this year is the idea of sustainability and. I know that is almost a cliche at this point. And it's a topic that's been addressed before Davos in really started To some degree at Davos however there is going to be a sea change in the way businesses operate and that real cost when when it comes to sustainability. You're looking at companies like Microsoft already that are charging their individual units for their carbon use. And I think you're gonNA see that in a very material way across the board so much of this is actually being led by Europe and some of the disclosure rules. And I think you're GonNa you start to see more and more disclosure around carbon emissions the cost of those emissions what companies are doing on. Es G. and it's just it's the the topic that is being talked about in the boardroom. Is it strange to talk about that. At a at a Swiss ski resort that people have to fly and in some cases take helicopters to get to. What's tell me about that? Disconnect people love to poke fun at Davos and think of it as you know speed dating and over Champagne. And everybody's flying there. I have never been fond of the argument that everybody should swim to Davos or otherwise. They're hypocrites if you really think about how. The dialogue and businesses changed around stakeholders and shareholders and purpose. And all of these things that have taken place place over the last twenty or thirty years they started Indaba. And so you know you can laugh if you want. But I I think that actually really the most meet some of the most meaningful decisions that are happening at the intersection of business and policy are happening there over the years. Joe Becky and Andrew have interviewed the likes of Bano J. P. Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon His Royal Highness. Prince William the Secretary General Role of NATO and so many more but a consensus favorite for the squawk box behind the scenes team Andrews conversation with conservationist Jane Goodall at last year's event. Here's what Andrew told me about that interview a year later. Can we talk about what might have been my favorite interview that we did last year and that is with eighty five year old soon to be eighty six year old. Jane Goodall Maybe one of my most favorite interviews of my career. Oh that's awesome. I think definitely my most favorite image age. Somebody took a picture of me kissing. Jane's on head. Who took that picture Andrew? I think you did I did. Hey I think you did anyway. it's it's just it's an indelible image. I have long been a great admirer of Jane Goodall. Integrate I've had a great love affair with gorillas and monkeys and The environment and and being able to spend time with her and Talk to her about her own journey and how she sees the world today was really quite something. It was a very charming interaction. Action that you had with her I think that doesn't happen very often. When you're interviewing people especially the CEOS of the business leaders that we talked to in Davos you the other piece of it is? It's very rare and maybe I'm completely jaded but it's very rare. We're sort of starstruck and I was genuinely genuinely starstruck. Buy Jingle Jingle Bells raised about two hundred and fifty million dollars for her foundation for conservation work and environmental concerns and also also education about our planet and about The way we coexist with animals and I thought that message was actually really fascinating leading to bring to a meeting of the global elite. You know I think that what she does. She adds a sense sense of humanity empathy to a conversation among business leaders. That oftentimes missing that piece. Okay this is awesome. Thank you appreciate it.

Boeing is not laying people off right now now but some workers are being temporarily deployed elsewhere in Washington and California people hate to see to Max's is trash. It's a devastating thing for the families and the people that perished on those airplanes and it will be followed airplanes. Our plan will be a safe airplane.

There Prince cuddles soul and the soul doesn't belong sitting there resting apart. He was a quality assurance manager. When he retired hired from Boeing in one thousand nine hundred four he says even back then he started to see the company prioritizing cost cutting but not sacrificing safety in recent years? Here's he thinks management got to focus on costs. They're bean counters look for profit. They're not looking at it for the the the name of the company which to me used to mean quality safety. Do you feel sad right now when you think about where what bullying is going through nor mad not sad but another retiree. Alan Rice says it's not that cut and dried of course Boeing knowing how to think about staying profitable every business. That's still in business over a long period of time has had to do the same thing or they would have been passed by. Why why are they doing it? If they're not trying to make money rice retired from Boeing in two thousand sixteen after a thirty eight year career as an engineer. He says he never saw safety. Fifty take a back seat to prophets. And he's proud of his time there but rice says he's concerned the rest of the world doesn't see the company the same way there's used to be you're saying if it's not bowing I'm not going and I doubt if that's how people feel today and I want to get back to that.

What is what social media makes it I would have said you were insane. I mean that that sounds ridiculous. It's from pimple. Papa Man is what makes it ultimately. Lee Ridiculous you know and a lot of people do struggle with with acne and especially I think at a young age it it's hormonal and all that and have you paid attention. I mean you're more of a scientist for sure. But have you noticed this acne. Positively that's in the air and I pay attention to social media would you. What's your take on that. I think it's wonderful I mean I think that that's part of to what my television show and what I try to do. In My my social media I mean I just just just like last week. I had a big hit on my forehead. It's still still while there's one new one coming apple my gosh. I've been wearing a lot of make us a couple of days. I think that's part of it but but you know I show that I myself as a dermatologist. Get sets and I think that's important to see because you know again. There's a pushback here because we're going to this end of everything being filtered and everybody looking showing their most amazing south and we are all we all do it some extent it starts to weigh on a lot of us in this people who take it very seriously you know they they take it very heavily so it's really nice to bring that back and say you know hey and that's the show does to you know people have these huge. You know one of the things I hear. People say more than anything else how why do these people why why this person wait so long. How could they have walked around with this or or we see people with really pretty common. Skin conditions like psoriasis that takes over your whole body you know or really bad acne so you shouldn't judge by the armor or that you are the skin that you were. I suppose yeah and it's important to show that because in makes us all at least hopefully it helps people feel better about themselves yeah now there is just an absolute slew of products at their for Acne from my own experience. I'm I'm beyond this now but when I was a teenager are the type of acne that I had was right on my chin mainly and sometimes in the crevices of my nose and it just get these giant. Whitehead's like one in her two of them and you know I definitely struggled with that and I found it was embarrassing and I tried to cover them up. They're just worse and for me. I I found that no matter what products I used the only thing that made it go away eventually was when I went on the birth control pill and when I grew out of it in my my hormones changed in your opinion. Are there things you can really do to get rid of acne when it's hormones well. Acne is pretty much. All all the main reason that exists is because of hormones I would say that it's two-part hormones and genetics genetics tied into hormones because he knows the type of skin that you're born with a type of skin that you've been passed down to you so genetics is more if you have really oily complexion if your parents have been more prone to acne. You're more likely going to to be have have acnes well. Hormones has everything to do with acne and that is why we get it primarily while we're teenagers because that's when the hormones are raging the most but also why women tend to get it more so than men throughout their life and it tends to be on a monthly cycle basis because because it's a change in our hormones and that's why medicines that adjust our hormones can help with acne. That's why sometimes people get pregnant pregnant. Their acne clears up more when you are on both birth control or also. There's another product called Al Dactyl or spiritual lockdown which is an aunt has an anti androgen affect. It's a pill that you can take to that also helps to sort of because all of us have testosterone on us is even females and so allow higher level that can certainly cause a more of a breakout actually especially in the Chin area and you're like the mandible distribution so that's why why we have medicines that actually specifically target and they do work well. We're I mean obviously there's so many medications out there and

You know in in one of the suburbs of Cleveland Ohio and we would have all these pickup baseball games tennis so I I really as a as a young kid growing up I got introduced used to every sport imaginable right I mean swimming biking running volleyball baseball all the album ball sports and and I and I loved it all but for whatever reason I kind of gravitated towards towards swing it was it was one of those sports that I excel that in highschool really it's funny. I was kind of a late bloomer of sorts. I I was kind of short until about maybe the ninth tenth the grade and that's when I shot up and went from probably five eight five nine up to over six feet and I'm now almost six feet two and then I ended up doing a postgraduate year at a boarding school and it was known as being one of the best swimming high schools in the country. It's called Mercersburg Academy and I went there and kind of repeated my junior year and that's when I needed that extra year and that's when I kinda got a decent and I mean I got good enough to where I had places like the University of Texas at Austin Arizona Tennessee Indiana these universities our cities were soliciting me and offered me recruiting trips and I visited the schools but I of course I landed at the University of Texas at Austin for a number of reasons reasons and Gosh have no regrets because if I wouldn't have gone to Texas I wouldn't of you know. I don't think I would have become a professional triathlete athlete. I wouldn't have met my wife. I wouldn't have become a firefighter and I wouldn't be here today. Talking to you becoming a division one athlete is is a major accomplishment and you did extremely well professional triathlete but then when you stop and then you enter the world and became a firefighter that's win for most people to so they might have played high school sports sports. They might have just been active through school but then they enter the workforce and they they start moving. They have a commute. They sit at their desk all day. life is busy. GotTa get dinner on the table title but you kept going so talk about why you do that and you know what you do in the course of everyday for your workout well. I'M GONNA back back up a little a bit because yes I went to University of Texas at Austin and it was the number one or number two school in the country and I had set certain aspirated for myself. You know every swimmer that that I know of especially Division One they wanna go the Olympics and they want to win a medal at the Olympics right and my father won a gold medal in enrolling in one thousand nine hundred eighty six and so I kind of had high aspirations and so I went to ut and I went there because I was a backstroker and the American record holder was there at the time guy named Clay Brit and the world record holder in in meters guy name Rick Kerry and I'm like you know if you want to be the best you got to go and you know see how the best to it and I just for whatever ever reason I never got as good as I wanted to so I always had this kind of disappointed in where I ended with my swimming career. I think that's one of the reasons why you know frankly. I threw myself into triathlons right because I had this nagging disappointment that just would not go away and I figured it okay if I work harder than anybody else. If I do all the little things right then maybe I can erase some of that disappointment that I had because I never made it to the Olympics. I went to the Olympic trials and was a three time all American but you know you'd be amazed how many swimmers that if they don't get an Olympic medal they feel like they're a failure and I have learned so much you know just in the evolution of our mindsets and what we want and failure and all that but so getting back to your question. Why am I still like you know doing this day. After Day. I think some of it believe it or not goes back to not a lot but a little goes back to my disappointment back in my college days. The other thing is I've fallen in. I Love I fall in love with movement the meditation that kind of I think happens with me and my mind when I'm swimming biking running I just there's a certain meditation that happens especially when you're clicking on also under there's a certain grace and ease in these sports especially especially when you're there when you're fitness is there and it's almost like all right. Let's see what we can do today and I've been swimming with this master Swim Program. I think we may have touched upon this a touch with. Jd Roth an episode five Jay talked about how you know one of the things that keeps them accountable is he has these group of guys that he has is over to his house. They got to come to his out but he has over to his house. You know whatever it's six o'clock and there's like a group of ten or twelve and they've been doing it now for over the decade and they're like best buds got something very similar to that back in Austin. It's with the this rolling would master Swim Program. There's probably ten guys and a few women and we've been together for some of US almost twenty years and you know we're we're there for each other. These guys become some you know the closest friends in my life not only is it a bonding experience with these with these people that we've connect. I've connected acted with for so many years but it also it is such a wonderful way to start your day right. I mean when you when the first thing that you can do in the morning as bang out a a killer workout in it's usually only an hour but I might as a week so it's I usually go five days a week. They have six days a week. I usually go five days a week and that after we swim and one of the things I want you to know is I'm fifty six and I go hard. I mean you know I I. I know some people they get over a certain age and like you know I'm just going to like take it easy and not going to get the heart rate up over a certain level. You know don't want any beads sweat coming down the old forehead. You know I'm kind of like all right. Let's bring it on. Let's let's let's hurt and I do that. I do that a lot and then you get out of the pool. WHO'LL so I've been with you on one of these workers then you got to do pull ups and a pretty amazing core routine so we do some medicine by work we do. We do pull ups yeah we do we do different kinds of variations of plank work outs we're always trying to mix it up and try new stuff but yes so after a swim and then doing fifteen to twenty minutes of cour- work pull ups sit ups man you are like ready to just like dig into the day and and do some damage so at what point did you decide decide okay being a division. One athlete wasn't enough being a world class professional triathlete enough now in a I want to break the world record for your age group. When was that decided so I i. I didn't really have these ambitions of getting the world record I do. Maybe need to say that two and a half almost three years ago. I did try to get the world record four fifty to fifty four year olds but I was fifty four and like like six months old not a good time to try and get a world record because I'm at the very end of the age group and I missed it by a little over like three and a half seconds. It's and I remember hurting so bad in this in this effort and I'm like okay. You know what I'm just. I'm done race and it's just it's it's. It's a a whole `nother level of pain beyond the workouts that I just don't. I don't know if I want to go there and when I was on the ritual podcast rich was like come on you. GotTa do it. You gotta do it for everybody. That's out there and I'm like yeah but you know I had blood coming out of my eyeballs and I had not not literally but that's what I felt like right and I felt like I was breathing out of every orifice in my body so there was some serious pain in my legs felt like lead weights and there was was lactic acid coursing through every molecule of my
