J. Aundrea
I I have seen the Amazon list. So the Amazon cart. So I do know that that you that you put a lot of effort into your skin care. It shows.

03:36.34
Bruce Anthony
Ah, thank you me, you were talking about the I cream stuff. That's the next thing because finally finally my the age is starting to happen where like I'm starting to get bags into my eyes and I'm like nah I'm about to hol it you about 1 of the.

03:39.40
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

03:45.58
J. Aundrea
Name.

03:51.98
Bruce Anthony
1 of my old girlfriends had anti-aging hand cream and I was like my your hands don't age and I was looking at my hands earlier today. They was just ashy because you know I washed my hands like literally ladies and gentlemen. It's not a obsession compulsive but maybe it is because.

03:54.48
J. Aundrea
Oh yes, yeah.

04:02.91
J. Aundrea
On.

04:08.69
J. Aundrea
Again, yeah.

04:10.54
Bruce Anthony
Every time I touch something I wash my hands. So I wash my hands. No lie 10 to 15 to 20 times a day. Um, it's that much. It's excessive. And yeah I was looking at my hands I was like I really need to start using more lotion after I need to use lotion.

04:16.13
J. Aundrea
Yeah, this excessive? Yeah yeah.

04:28.63
Bruce Anthony
Every time I wash my hands.

04:30.27
J. Aundrea
So that's that's one of the places. Ah that people don't focus on when it comes to anti-aging is their hands and their neck. You gotta.

04:35.53
Bruce Anthony
Well I focus on the neck because the the face cream is for the neck as well.

04:44.50
J. Aundrea
But I feel like the first places you start to age are is your neck in your hands and then yeah, all you need is a elissa in the wintertime only thing I do same lotion I just put.

04:47.25
Bruce Anthony
Well I'm seeing in my hands plus as cold as hell it was ° today

05:00.60
Bruce Anthony
They're vaseline intensive care.

05:29.49
Bruce Anthony
Um, okay I got plenty a vaseline. Yeah I've been using. Ah, one girl that I was dating introduced me to vaseline because I was addictpped addicted to chapstick.

05:40.28
J. Aundrea
M.

Bruce Anthony
Look.

06:27.26
J. Aundrea
Doesn't matter I use vaseline as a great skin protector.

06:30.21
Bruce Anthony
Well, it's it's this all this talking about skin care and the things that we do to combat aging was for point it was a setup. The setup was the setup was ah.

06:34.24
J. Aundrea
And will.

06:42.96
J. Aundrea
Um.

06:45.49
J. Aundrea
If you tee it upright you don't have to tell people.

06:45.61
Bruce Anthony
Forgot who it was somebody sent me now I I like to I did tee it up right? But I also want to ah let everybody know that I teeed it up right? I Want some acknowledgement out here. Okay I want I want So I want some acknowledgement out here. You know I.

06:55.93
J. Aundrea
Right? Okay, all right? Yeah yeah I get us fair. That's fair, right? Yeah, okay.

07:04.50
Bruce Anthony
There's no feedback right now. There's no crowd or anything like that and I'm really not getting feedback like oh yeah, that tea-up was really good. No I don we' get that so I'm going Pat myself on the back for this great seggue. But.

07:15.72
J. Aundrea
It.

07:16.49
Bruce Anthony
I got sent a it was either a Tiktok or a reel from Instagram about a young man who was 25 years old talking about him aging and and the basic premise was that gen zers are aging more rapidly than millennials.

07:19.40
J. Aundrea
And.

07:31.65
J. Aundrea
M.

07:33.80
Bruce Anthony
And I was like oh this is an interesting you know topic and I think there's a variety number of reasons why gen z is aging and it was I saw something the other day on Instagram where it was like 90 s celebrities and it was just like like them on the red carpet or something like that and they look.

07:39.36
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

07:46.22
J. Aundrea
A. Yeah, yeah.

07:52.30
Bruce Anthony
Beautiful skin flawless and you look at these young kids now and you take away these filters and everything some of these young kids look old some of these kids look old and some of these millennials that are my age look young.

07:58.44
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah I mean you you put a guy like Pete Davison next to Regina King

08:12.95
Bruce Anthony
Right? What happened and and I think um, what the guy said in the video. The reason why Gen Zs are aging is because of stress and there's goingnna be some generations out there. Boomers.

08:13.63
J. Aundrea
Ah, you just wonder what happened? yeah.

08:23.77
J. Aundrea
M.

08:29.45
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

08:30.93
Bruce Anthony
Boomers boomers are quick to say to the young generation that they're that they're lazy and that they have it easy and I don't think that's a fair assessment and that's the reason why gen z calls out and even millennials call out boomers like you all know my life and they don't so I will say Gen Z.

08:34.61
J. Aundrea
With him.

08:43.21
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

08:49.39
Bruce Anthony
And young millennials did grow up in a more stressful time because they literally went to school during active shooting drills like I graduated out Columbine was 97 I graduated in high school in 98 and even though Columbine was an anomaly at that time.

08:55.79
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

09:03.69
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, yes.

09:07.23
Bruce Anthony
Like there weren't a bunch of mass shootings. Um, even with our younger brother graduated. There wasn't a bunch of mass shootings then all of a sudden the those like early two thousand s hit and it felt like it was a mass shooting or 2 every year

09:12.00
J. Aundrea
Right.

09:21.37
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

09:23.35
Bruce Anthony
And that's when they had to do the drills So you think about it these kids have been doing drills scared to go to school since they were in kindergarten.

09:30.11
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, and I think about you know as millennials we came of age in ah in a time of war and we went off to fight the war but they were born just.

09:41.76
Bruce Anthony
G nep.

09:47.38
J. Aundrea
At War like they just didn't know anything else. Um, and then yeah and just the thought of the role that like the internet plays in their lives and.

09:51.27
Bruce Anthony
They don't know any piece.

09:59.80
Bruce Anthony
E.

10:04.12
J. Aundrea
It such a toxic place you know, ah us when we remember the internet you know when we were younger it just it was ah the internet was always toxic right? because people are always gonna take stuff and pervert it so you got them well back when we were it was Aol chat rooms and Msn chat rooms and things like that.

10:15.92
Bruce Anthony
Um, yeah, yeah.

10:23.66
J. Aundrea
And you know you you had to be careful of perverts but perverts are always gone be where to action is okay, they're gonna be. They're gonna be. They're gonna be where a people are I mean what? what.

10:27.99
Bruce Anthony
Perverse has always been out there. Yeah I don't have that phrase. What is you Okay, all right? That's little better. Not what action is I'll know if that's the first what youth the stop don't double down on it.

10:41.25
J. Aundrea
Yeah, what? Ah the perverts are gonna be when I actually doubled ah a double down it I chose I chose my words and I doubled down on it.

10:51.50
Bruce Anthony
Not you go get us canceled. Ok right.

11:00.23
J. Aundrea
No, but I mean they're gonna be a you know perverts are gonna show up where the people are um but we just didn't when you came home from school any bullying you had in school stop when you got home? Yeah, right? Or yeah.

11:11.48
Bruce Anthony
It stopped there. Yeah, unless they lived in your neighborhood. But even then you know you could get home. You got home. There was a safe haven here and we had some bullies in our family.

11:18.61
J. Aundrea
Or you know the bully was in your family but other than that he but other than that you know, Um, when you got home from school like there was that safe haven that barrier between you and the world and the kids nowadays. And you know Gen Z was really that first generation it was as no barrier for them and and the outside world They can't escape it. The internet is so ingrained in their lives like they have to be on it for school. They have to be on it for their jobs just to connect.

11:40.80
Bruce Anthony
Yeah, there's no barrier. There's no escape.

11:52.15
Bruce Anthony
A.

11:56.80
J. Aundrea
Any little thing like you have to be on it and there's really just no escape from them for all of that stress bad information misinformation just straight up lies just ah yeah.

12:09.89
Bruce Anthony
We'll see that's another thing right? like the older generation Greta Thornberg so a lot of I remember getting an argument with a sixty year old Klineo Mine this is she doesn't even know anything. That's the her parents filling her hair with it with information I was like.

12:15.40
J. Aundrea
In.

12:27.84
Bruce Anthony
You know I've heard this talking point before why do you feel that way because I didn't know anything I was 15 I was like you didn't have access to information like she does. It's completely different. She has act she has way more access right? and you didn't have to you were safe and secure and protected right? But now I remember Dave Chappelle talking to a bunch of kids.

12:34.25
J. Aundrea
And you didn't have to yeah.

12:47.81
Bruce Anthony
And he says I I'm scared for your generation and the reason why I'm scared for your generation is because he was he was talking about when I guess it was just a voyager when the voyager took off. Ah I want somebody is gonna correct me but when the spaceship took off and everybody was watching in the classroom and it blew up.

12:58.40
J. Aundrea
M.

13:06.65
J. Aundrea
Um.

13:06.93
Bruce Anthony
That was a traumatic experience for that generation. But that wasn't every day he says now your generation is seeing that every single day when it comes to cops shootings it comes to natural disasters. It comes from you know, hate this hate legislation is being filled.

13:08.95
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

13:17.59
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah.

13:26.40
Bruce Anthony
Ah, or Wars is is like you see something like that every day that would be stressful and where and wear you down and that will cause you to age rapidly. Also don't get me wrong. We did our fair share of drinking and smoking weed and smoking cigarettes.

13:30.74
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, yeah, yeah.

13:45.34
Bruce Anthony
But these kids is using that vape and the vape is worse than cigarettes. Also these kids are doing cosmetic stuff to their body like Botox Um, before they're fully developed before their face is fully developed that is caused it like I'm sorry Gen Z out there.

13:48.18
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

14:04.89
Bruce Anthony
You should not have to use bull tox before you're 30 You should stay away from.

14:08.77
J. Aundrea
Yeah, like ah well, there's okay, you shouldn't be using it cosmetically if you have migraines or you're an excessive sweater. Yes, you can get botox injections and it's helpful for migraines or if you are an excessive sweater.

14:17.45
Bruce Anthony
That what botox is for ah 1 oh and another.

14:26.24
J. Aundrea
I have ah I'm obsessive face sweater so I have all ways I've also considered you know yes and for a fred of Youtube it was the challenger space shuttle in 86 we do know like yeah voyager is definitely star trek.

14:29.30
Bruce Anthony
That runs in the family. Everybody is a face sweater in our family. Okay, thank you when I said the voyager that that was a star trek This Okay I I blame I blame mom and dad and.

14:45.92
J. Aundrea
But that's ok, they dig out lost in space I think yeah.

14:55.29
Bruce Anthony
Blame mom and dad and our brother because I'm not a star trek fan at all. But anytime I'm around them and the tv is on most of the time is on some form of star trek I just I knew Voyager was something out of space.

15:03.40
J. Aundrea
Yes, and this is how you also know that we're not Star Trek people because we say Star Trek I We know it's trek like we know it's trek. Oh no.

15:18.12
Bruce Anthony
I'm not I thought it was track Oh about this stuff. Okay.

15:22.31
J. Aundrea
Ah, Star Trek but but but you'll notice people who because a trek is a journey or a voyage or whatever like yeah but I call Star Trek because.

15:27.40
Bruce Anthony
Okay, yeah, mam it guess it makes sense. Yeah Star Trek to me so there might be some other going back to these these young kids you know I mean student student Debt unemployment inflation.

15:41.64
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

15:44.12
Bruce Anthony
I Mean these are things that older millennials are dealing with but but we're kind of a little bit more established. So even though we're dealing with ah with inflation like we have jobs. We have established careers at this point so we have studied.

15:47.43
J. Aundrea
Right. Right? We've been dealing with our student debt for you know about 15 years now. So we got it right? That is what I'm finding. Yeah.

15:59.55
Bruce Anthony
And our student debt isn't what their student debt is now because college is way more expensive than it was. We went to college like we I graduated to college. Yeah yeah, cause you gar you because you back in school. Ah yeah I literally I literally graduated from college twenty years ago I

16:11.53
J. Aundrea
Ah, back at school. So yeah.

16:16.26
J. Aundrea
11

16:17.00
Bruce Anthony
Hey I'm getting old. Yes I literally graduated from college twenty years ago so it's majorly different. So these kids is is dealing with a lot of stuff I'm not going to say I've read some less and I'm not going to say that these kids aren't paying attention to their diet and nutrition because a lot of kids are really really into fitness.

16:22.14
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

16:34.66
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah.

16:36.82
Bruce Anthony
So and really into nutrition I'm seeing the the biggest the biggest generation that's involved in fitness is the gen z generation I mean millennials now now are involved but when I was 25 that's when I finally got into fitness but from like.

16:45.56
J. Aundrea
And.

16:55.72
Bruce Anthony
18 to 25 you know I would hit the little gym a little bit but I wasn't serious about it. These kids are serious. They're on programs. They're hire and trainers. They're getting their nutrition so that their diets are cool. But then there's still some gen z people out there that take bad diet advice from these.

16:59.17
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah.

17:12.25
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

17:14.69
Bruce Anthony
Tick tockers that say we eat this need that now. They're not a registered nutritionist registered diet ah dietician which is a better version and a more educated version. A more knowledgeable version than a nutritionist I'm a nutritionist a registered Dietician actually has a degree.

17:18.88
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

17:27.97
J. Aundrea
Even yeah, yes, right.

17:33.63
Bruce Anthony
I have a certificate So so I went to I went and got I went to school and got did a little bit of study and and got a certificate registered Dietician They actually have a degree So like these tiktokers don't be listening to these tiktokers unless they're a Bona fide nutritionists.

17:37.82
J. Aundrea
Yes, right.

17:50.77
Bruce Anthony
Or registered Dietician but these are all the signs of gen z is is agent but I tell you what don't worry about a gen z don't worry about it because at some point you go stop aging. Maybe you just age early. Maybe you just you know, early onset aging.

17:51.18
J. Aundrea
Um.

17:57.56
J. Aundrea
Yeah, don't don't right a listen but ah, a listen I Found a picture from like my graduation from high school.

18:12.54
Bruce Anthony
And.

18:14.52
J. Aundrea
And I was like I look very similar and it's not because I haven't aged. It's because I was already grown looking what when I was young I've been grown society I've looked like a full adult since I was about 1314 years old

18:23.50
Bruce Anthony
That's True. You've been Grown. You've been grown since yeah, you've been grown since she was about 13 Yeah there.

18:34.46
J. Aundrea
So when I when people look at me. They're like Wow you haven't aged my house like no I got old real fast and then I just kind of stagnated and that's where I been. Yeah.

18:41.95
Bruce Anthony
Yeah, yeah, but see we looked because I got that too. But I got that more because of my height right? I was always assumed older. You know I was walking in the liquor stores at 1718 years old

18:50.10
J. Aundrea
And.

18:56.50
J. Aundrea
Yeah, right? So that's a grown man. But yeah, yeah.

18:58.53
Bruce Anthony
And nobody was questioned because he's just like well he I got a little peach fuzz on my face it like oh nobody know you he must be ah of age. That's a grown man. No I was not I was a kid I go back and look at the pictures and I was like I look like a kid. No I'm just tall now I look like a kid but you know what else though? What's important. And as far as our aging. Um, you know I said it before and I'm I'm going really Hardborn. It is food and water like those things are so good for your body and they help with the aging they help with everything proper nutrition helps with brain function with memory.

19:22.86
J. Aundrea
And.

19:33.13
J. Aundrea
Yes.

19:36.36
Bruce Anthony
Ah, hey, hey gentlemen testosterone that prostate you know when when you get hey gentlemen when you get to be about 30 years eight thirty years old your testosterone decides to decrease rapidly and if you're not in shape eating right? drinking water.

19:47.58
J. Aundrea
Right.

19:54.72
Bruce Anthony
Then certain instruments that you have will stop using because the main ingredient to get them. Bad boys to work is testosterone So hey you know just just want to put it out there but food is important. Food is so very very important which is why I do not huh.

20:01.30
J. Aundrea
No. Yeah, and it it. It doesn't matter if it's in a you know hydra flask or yeti or a stanley cup bit truly guess what it's just a thermos that Aint none but a thermos. To keep your drink cold when we used That's what we used to have back in the day thermos brand Thermos brand water bottle

20:28.10
Bruce Anthony
It was a thermos. Yeah well we didn't have the technology to have it to keep anything cold. It was only to keep stuff hot.

20:36.68
J. Aundrea
Now if you had the little ice pack that thermos was safe pretty it was stay pretty cool.

20:39.94
Bruce Anthony
Well okay, you if you had the ice pride All you remember what I you remember what I remember being in school having a little thermost mom pack a little hot chocolate so you could have during lunch speaking of.

20:54.80
J. Aundrea
Yes, yeah.

20:59.66
Bruce Anthony
Kids and lunch. We gonna talk about why republicans are trying to starve these kids that's coming up next.

21:14.48
Bruce Anthony
Okay, Jay so on the Tuesday show I opened it up by talking about Mississippi because you sent me an article. It was either yesterday or today that was in the Washington post and a couple of different news outlets have written out I've written about this about how 15 governor ah republican led states decided to turn down a federal program that was basically going to feed the kids in the summertime and I first saw the headline for this sometime over the weekend and it was about Mississippi right.

21:41.61
J. Aundrea
Yes, yes.

21:52.33
J. Aundrea
Um.

21:52.76
Bruce Anthony
And there was a direct thing that really bothered me about Mississippi turning this down because I was going to talk about this later bring this up later but the Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves I'll dig into the entire reasoning behind his declining this government aid. Because there's more than just this one factor but he's basically saying he didn't want the state to become a welfare state meanwhile he's been siphoning money from the welfare programs in the state. Allegedly allegedly to fund.

22:15.62
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

22:23.70
J. Aundrea
Judith.

22:26.94
Bruce Anthony
A volleyball court for Southern Mississippi University in conjunction with Brett Farve because his daughter worked there so he's all for welfare and draining the resources to provide for the rich even though that money is for the poor. But he doesn't want to have a welfare state so that set me off on Tuesday but I refused to give that whole topic a full segment when you sent this article to me and ah and it listed 15 states fifteen nearly a third of this country decided that.

22:47.71
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

22:54.11
J. Aundrea
6

23:01.97
Bruce Anthony
They did not want to feed kids in the summertime I said no, we need to devote a whole segment to this because it's going along with a lot of the themes that we've been talking about about how these states don't care about kids even though they try to say that they care about kids. But.

23:14.10
J. Aundrea
Um.

23:16.89
J. Aundrea
Threat.

23:19.89
Bruce Anthony
I'm gonna let you go ahead and give your thoughts on this whole thing before I go down some of these different stuff that they're saying is the reason why they decide to turn it down.

23:30.94
J. Aundrea
Yeah, so as you know there are there are millions of children that rely on breakfast and lunch at school because of food insecurity at home. Ah.

23:41.19
Bruce Anthony
So explain to them What food insecurity is because they may think it's people out there may think well kids don't feel good about eating. No that's not it.

23:51.90
J. Aundrea
No, no so there are a lot of reasons for food insecurity. The largest one of course is economic depending on what state you're in um, a lot of states typically republican leaning states make it very difficult. To get food assistance. It makes it very difficult to opt into the snap program get food stamps things like that it could be where the where the children live like my area of Atlanta is a food desert so there aren't any. Ah, there aren't a lot of healthy options. Ah, within walking distance because there needs to be healthy options within walking distance because not everybody has a car. Um, it could be that these children are unhoused. We have I know here in Atlanta a large unhoused child population in ah Clayton County so

24:32.80
Bruce Anthony
Right.

24:46.54
J. Aundrea
Um, which is a county just south of metro Atlanta so there could there is a lot of reasons most of it is economic. They have parents or caregivers who are living you know under the poverty line and they. Don't have access either access to food period or access to quality options and you've got a lot of food pantries that are just overrun I don't know if anybody is ever driven by a food pantry when they open but the lines are usually around the block. So. There are millions and millions of kids in this country that rely on during the school year breakfast the free breakfast free or reduced breakfast and lunch that they receive at school now when school is not in session in the summer ah these kids don't have access to that free lunch or to that free breakfast or reduced lunch or reduce breakfast. So the summer food program was actually approved as part of a bipartisan budget agreement in 2022 and the program was expected is expected to serve. TwentyOneMillion youngsters starting in June by providing two point five billion in relief across the country so when these 15 states opted to reject this federally funded program mind you.

26:19.25
J. Aundrea
It is a federally funded program. Their state money is not going towards this program when they rejected it. They are essentially denying benefits to about 8000000 children across the country.

26:32.47
Bruce Anthony
And let's be clear this so this this is a summer program that gives food assistance to low income families with school aged children k through 12 right school age children and there are.

26:44.80
J. Aundrea
Um k through 12 Yes.

26:50.79
Bruce Anthony
Existing summer meal programs. But this is how this particular program is different. This new program provides $40 per month per child with a cap of one hundred and twenty dollars in grocery benefits while the existence programs were reimbursement programs and the operators for a cost of meals served.

26:55.76
J. Aundrea
Um.

27:09.92
J. Aundrea
M.

27:10.30
Bruce Anthony
So first of all, let's look at that. It's $40 per kid with a cap of one hundred and twenty dollars total per household. So if you got four kids. It's still only one hundred and twenty dollars and at last I check $40 ain't enough to put gas in your car much less put food on the table for 1 child for a whole.

27:19.39
J. Aundrea
Threat.

27:30.14
Bruce Anthony
Month that's $10 think about that that's $10 a week per child the math on that I can't even do because you can't divide. You can divide 7 into 10 but it's under a dollar. It's under $2 a day to feed a kid.

27:31.13
J. Aundrea
Um, um.

27:37.73
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

27:49.14
Bruce Anthony
And the last side check Mcdonald's don't have a dollar menu anymore. No, they don't have a dollar menu anymore. Yeah, what's up.

27:54.13
J. Aundrea
It doesn't ah so I so side note I didn't know that because I have not been to Mcdonald's probably in over a year. Ah I did not know that.

28:02.17
Bruce Anthony
Well I frequent Mcdonald's because I love the mcnuggets because why I'm a chicken nugget Eatden bitch as my best friend would say so so I frequent Mcdonald's and there's no more dollar menu and even if there was a dollar menu that means you could get.

28:10.69
J. Aundrea
Yes, Yes, yeah yeah, Wow! yeah.

28:21.90
Bruce Anthony
1 thing right? So this is not some windfall for families to feed their kids. It's a little bit of help right? The new. The new program is available to all families with children who are eligible for free or reduced price school lunches so there isn't like this. Is giving out money to every family right? once again, it's low income families with school age children who are already inistent. Ah who already? ah eligible for free or reduced price school lunches. Once again, when school is out during the summertime where did they get their breakfast in the lunch.

28:40.90
J. Aundrea
The.

28:58.83
J. Aundrea
It's right.

28:59.25
Bruce Anthony
It's got to be provided by the family. The family doesn't have these the incomes to be able to do it all right? The new program allows for families to use the Ebt card to buy food as stores that accept snap benefits while the existing programs require children to eat Mills at a designated sites and therefore grab and go. So.

29:01.71
J. Aundrea
Look.

29:18.73
Bruce Anthony
Once again old programs or programs that are already in existence is go over to this community center and go ahead and grab you a little bit of lunch and go home. This new program is hey look.

29:26.81
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

29:30.84
Bruce Anthony
that $40 that $80 one hundred $20 we're gonna add that to your ebt card your snap car so that you can go to the grocery store and actually go buy groceries. Ah the new and and they still operate at the same nutrition standards as all other programs that are that are provided right now.

29:38.24
J. Aundrea
Yes.

29:50.48
Bruce Anthony
So I want to get into the reasons why these 15 governors because we want to give them benefit the benefit of a doubt right? Why would you deny these programs. Obviously you must have a good reason to deny these programs Jay do you want to talk about some of the stuff that you read that hit you.

29:56.16
J. Aundrea
Right.

30:08.54
Bruce Anthony
As far as why some of these governors wanted to not to do to deny these programs to these kids.

30:15.15
J. Aundrea
Yeah, is pretty much disgusting reasons. Um so Iowa governor Kim Reynolds said she saw no need to add money to a program that helps food insecure use when childhood obesity has become an epidemic.

30:30.60
Bruce Anthony
In in.

30:31.64
J. Aundrea
Ma'am We're talking about children who are food insecure children who are food insecure tend to not be obese and if they are and if they are.

30:40.87
Bruce Anthony
We had to keep well well some of them are right? There's something.

30:51.42
J. Aundrea
It is because around them is a food desert where there are not quality options for food. The cheapest things to get are processed foods foods that are high in calories high in fat and high in sugar when.

30:54.32
Bruce Anthony
Is.

31:08.62
Bruce Anthony
Hamburger helper ramen noodles. All that all that process all processed. Food has access amounts of sugar. That's the reason why you see a lot of people in low income families in Lowin income neighborhoods.

31:09.68
J. Aundrea
Yes, but.

31:15.67
J. Aundrea
M.

31:25.12
Bruce Anthony
That suffer from diabetes. It's because of the foods they consume. It's not I mean the food look Sometimes these foods are delicious If you throw a hot pocket in front of my face I might not turn it down right? I might not turn it down but but.

31:25.38
J. Aundrea
Right.

31:33.68
J. Aundrea
Let me tell you you don't have to tell me that's delicious.

31:42.21
Bruce Anthony
I'm not eating hot pockets all the time because I have enough money that I can get something healthier right? That's sometimes that's not the option for these people so you got Iowa governor who's talking about these kids is fat. We don't want to give more money for food Dan got food. That's the part of the problem also have you ever noticed.

31:45.98
J. Aundrea
Yes, yes.

31:58.27
J. Aundrea
That's the part That's the problem. Yes.

32:01.80
Bruce Anthony
When they used a show the little starving kids in other countries how they would be really skinny but had these big pot bellies.

32:05.75
J. Aundrea
Yes, that is called a distended belly and it is a physical manifestation of hunger. Yes.

32:12.80
Bruce Anthony
Right? Exactly what your body does when you don't feed itself. It puts itself in starvation mode which means and this is the nutritionist and trainer that's coming out of me when your body is in starvation mode.

32:22.46
J. Aundrea
Um.

32:28.35
Bruce Anthony
Your body will feed off of the muscle and store the fat. That's how you get people that are skinny but have these big pot bellies. They're starving. They're starving so that really annoyed me. But.

32:31.58
J. Aundrea
Yes.

32:42.39
J. Aundrea
Mm.

32:47.58
J. Aundrea
Now.

32:47.72
Bruce Anthony
She wasn't the only one there are some other people were there any that were there anymore that really struck a chord with you.

32:54.12
J. Aundrea
Nebraska governor Jim Pillen who said bluntly quote I don't believe in welfare baby. You don't have to believe in it. It's real It's real and it's necessary and I'll tell you why it's necessary. Because in 2021 12.5 of households were facing food insecurity and 2022 it was up to 17.3 so there is an increase in food insecurity. In this country an increase so there are 21 again. This would have helped 21000000 children and just these 15 states are depriving 8000000 children.

33:44.86
Bruce Anthony
Children children.

33:48.42
J. Aundrea
The opportunity to have a healthy breakfast and lunch because I'mma tell you is easier to buy the sugar cereal which is cheaper and it'll last you longer than then.

33:58.69
Bruce Anthony
And a little bit more delicious.

34:04.74
J. Aundrea
The same cost in eggs which you could probably only get you a half a dozen to make a healthy scrambled eggs or something for breakfast for each so and and guess what fresh eggs and stuff. They're not really always that fresh at the corner store.

34:07.24
Bruce Anthony
A.

34:21.10
Bruce Anthony
Right? Not at the corner store right.

34:23.39
J. Aundrea
If if they're even there if they're even there. So the cool thing about this program is that it offers this money not just to buy food at grocery stores but also farmers markets where you can go and get fresh organic produce.

34:34.44
Bruce Anthony
M.

34:41.74
J. Aundrea
For your family. They're denying for for truly This isn't a political issue. It's about feeding hungry children. That's not a political issue. How how how in what way can you sleep at night.

34:43.48
Bruce Anthony
Um.

35:01.83
J. Aundrea
Knowing that you have turned down money that you did not have to do anything for that's the thing that bothers me the most about this that act like state funds are going toward this. This is a fully federally funded program. All you had to do was say yes to the money.

35:18.25
Bruce Anthony
Well so some of them like my man ah tate reeves who basically says we'll tate. You know that's the governor of Mississippi and why not you know, allegedly allegedly that was still in money from the welfare system to fund a newly built.

35:26.38
J. Aundrea
M.

35:36.50
Bruce Anthony
Ah, volleyball stadium at Southern Mississippi he emphasized that he wouldn't take the extra funds. Um because he wanted to avoid expanding the welfare state and creating an dependency on government assistance. He also claimed his state already had an existence summer meal programs. Or other initiatives to adjust child hunger. Ah he cited administrative costs staff capacity and nutritional standards of the program as challenges or barriers now I've heard that from a lot of governors of the state that said hey. We already have something well at the top of this I pointed out the differences between existing programs in this program. Okay, so this one is vastly different and I've already pointed that out I'm not going to rehash that again, but a lot of them I saw said well we don't have the administrative capability to do it I'm sorry it's a.

36:12.31
J. Aundrea
Man.

36:25.13
J. Aundrea
Right.

36:25.42
Bruce Anthony
Federally funded program find of Resources hire the people so that you can administer this program but you don't really want to do it because you don't really care about the kids and we can continue on to talk about this. But the reason why.

36:31.82
J. Aundrea
Right.

36:44.53
Bruce Anthony
The Mississippi Governor set me off this weekend and why I touched on it a little bit on Tuesday is because you know Jay you know what? my biggest pet peeve is about people hypocrisy. So.

36:57.36
J. Aundrea
Hypocrites.

37:01.17
Bruce Anthony
They claim up and down that they care about the children. How many of these states that deprived these kids of food deprive these kids of proof of food have anti-abortion laws all of them. Why.

37:09.28
J. Aundrea
M.

37:16.63
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

37:20.61
Bruce Anthony
Because they believe in the life of the child. How many of these states have anti transgender laws. The majority of them How many of these states have been doing.

37:32.30
J. Aundrea
Yeah there.

37:38.92
Bruce Anthony
Book banning and stripping away education the majority of them and when I say the majority of them like I have the the list in front of me. It's like for each categories 12 or 13 I mean 12 or 15 or 13 or 15 or all 15

37:56.97
J. Aundrea
Um.

37:58.82
Bruce Anthony
So they say that they care about the children right? They say that they're they're anti-abortion because they want to care for the children's lives but yet once the children are born. We're seeing no matter what if they're born in certain circumstances. You really don't care about the kids that much you don't.

38:14.64
J. Aundrea
Right.

38:18.20
Bruce Anthony
You care about the kids so much you care about the kids so much You don't want any type of education to indoctrinate them. But you strip them away from all knowledge of the history of the country that they actually live in so you're making them dumber you're depriving them the right of them being who they are.

38:29.16
J. Aundrea
M.

38:35.91
J. Aundrea
Yes.

38:38.14
Bruce Anthony
Just because you don't understand it or because you don't want to accept it when you make these anti-transgender of Laws. So for all these governors that say they are for the kids because don't forget the anti anti transgender laws especially the drag law is because they're saying that transgender people or drag Queens. Pedophiles. When. In fact, I still have not found a case yet where a drag Queen has been accused of pedophilia but you know where I have seen it I've seen it in the schools I've seen it in the church I've seen police officers I've seen doctors.

39:01.96
J. Aundrea
Now.

39:14.81
J. Aundrea
Seated in congress.

39:16.24
Bruce Anthony
I've seen it in the congress I've seen it everywhere else except for here so you don't really give a damn about the kids as evident by all of your actions which you care about is what you care about and making sure that what you believe In. It's forced upon everybody else and if anybody else challenges you on it. All of a sudden you're being canceled even though you have every platform to spew your hatred that you want to. But yeah, you care for the kids. So. That's what really really pissed me off is that here. We here's a prime example if you care for the kids give them the.

39:47.67
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

39:53.87
Bruce Anthony
Basic human need of food.

39:55.51
J. Aundrea
Yeah, it's not. It's not something that we can debate on food is a human right? You have a right to food like and the fact that we can.

40:02.32
Bruce Anthony
A.

40:15.40
J. Aundrea
Even argue about that is insane to me not to mention the states that rejected this program are among the poorest states in this country so you are the states that.

40:28.79
Bruce Anthony
A a.

40:34.96
J. Aundrea
Alabama Mississippi Kentucky you are the states that need this program the most your constituents are the ones that need this program the most and you're denying them access to it.

40:37.80
Bruce Anthony
Kentucky.

40:46.19
Bruce Anthony
He.

40:52.67
J. Aundrea
And I'm watching it firsthand was of Georgia of course is 1 of the states Georgia is also one of the states that have not fully extended medicaid eligibility to low income individuals and so I'm seeing it firsthand with people that I know trying to get benefits. For their children and having the damnedest time doing it because they've they've either made it too difficult the process too difficult or they've just made it downright impossible.

41:23.66
Bruce Anthony
And unless and for for a lot of people don't understand what medicaid is medicaid is a government funded program for Health care right? More importantly, it's for low income families. More importantly, it helps low income families that have children it gives children.

41:30.72
J. Aundrea
Yes, yes.

41:38.74
J. Aundrea
Yes, yes.

41:42.76
Bruce Anthony
Health care and also it doesn't apply to adults in most cases but covered under that Medicare for children is being able to go to the dentist right? So basic basic stuff right? Florida was another state.

41:46.67
J. Aundrea
M.

41:52.32
J. Aundrea
Bright.

42:00.31
Bruce Anthony
Debt was reducing access to Medicaid. You know all these people were talking about. Yeah I'm going down in Florida I'm moving to Texas and this and that yeah, okay, that's great if you got money those are states with no state income tax. Yeah, you might you might be all right? If you're poor. It is pointless to live in those states cause they don't care about you. They don't care about you and I understand where some people are gonna say you know well we had to. We had to put a handle on welfare cause some people are taking advantage of the system. No matter what system that you have people are gonna take advantage of it. That's what people do people are going to take advantage of situ. Hey.

42:18.25
J. Aundrea
The right.

42:36.42
Bruce Anthony
When they were handing out them Ppp Loans There was a lot of rich people that already had money that was taking that money when they shouldn't have been taking it right right.

42:39.10
J. Aundrea
A lot of them again in Congress and didn't have to pay it back and didn't have to pay it back. Got their loans forgiven I knew go get into that.

42:55.70
Bruce Anthony
Well we can move on. We can move on. You know I'm heated and I'm angry and I got a headache now because this just angers me this is this is the kids and you know Brucecy Bruce Love the kids like this their kids that they are.

42:58.91
J. Aundrea
Yeah, chat I didn't go get into that. Yeah yeah, yes, yes.

43:13.97
Bruce Anthony
Kids are the greatest treasures that we have in humanity because kids are honest. They're pure all of the all of our flaws. They don't have.

43:19.28
J. Aundrea
M.

43:31.37
Bruce Anthony
They don't hate anybody they don't judge in your body kids you put them on a playground they will literally walk up to each other and say hey you want to race no matter what you are no matter what you look like no matter what your nationality is adults teach them How hate adults teach them to look at something that is different than you and judge it.

43:38.10
J. Aundrea
Yeah.

43:43.84
J. Aundrea
Yes.

43:51.22
Bruce Anthony
Adults do that Kids don't do that We would do better.

43:54.00
J. Aundrea
Adults adults adults teach them insecurity like it it. It doesn't even have to be outward displays of of hatred that you're often the voice that's in their heads.

43:59.32
Bruce Anthony
Yep, but.

44:08.17
Bruce Anthony
Here.

44:11.49
J. Aundrea
With the negative thoughts that they have so we have such an impact on these kids and truly dropping the ball in in protecting them from things like gun violence and providing for them. Ah, safe places to live and um play ah being foods Food Secure. We're just dropping the ball in their education Health Care. There's no,, There's no avenue where we are not. Messing this up and I don't understand the real the real issue cause it can't possibly I I don't believe in welfare what are you talking about? What are you even talking about that's not a real stance.

45:06.54
Bruce Anthony
Ah I tell you what the you want to know what the real issue is here's a real issue these politicians equate welfare to black and brown when in reality the people getting the most welfare.

45:07.49
J. Aundrea
What are you talking about.

J. Aundrea
M.

Bruce Anthony
Are white.

45:24.96
J. Aundrea
Yeah, per per capita. Yeah.

45:27.67
Bruce Anthony
Per cap. That's what I mean but if you just the people the the money that money is going into the hands of the most are white people. It's not a black or brown issue. It's a poor issue and poor don't poor. Don't discriminate Poor is poor.

45:40.00
J. Aundrea
Yeah, it truly does it like there are did you forget these states have rule areas that are food insecure. Yes.

45:50.50
Bruce Anthony
Who where they don't even have internet access. They don't have and like this something like you know, like all right Jay ah, do you have any last parting things on this because.

46:00.63

Bruce Anthony
Yeah, you know like I can deal with like you can attack me as a black man I could take it I can fight back but the kids can't you know if they're hungry and they're starving. There's nothing else that they could really do and then you wonder why? a starving kid might turn the crime to feed himself. Well, you've been depriving that kid to food. How would that kid how's.

46:11.69
J. Aundrea
The kids can't fight back.

46:19.00
J. Aundrea
Right? They're hungry.

46:25.84
Bruce Anthony
How's that kid supposed to stay up and do their homework or just stay up in the classroom and be able to pay attention when their stomach is growling Now you don't really care about the kids. You don't care about them.

46:30.91
J. Aundrea
Yeah, no mind you these kids are in the classroom all day starting 7 in the morning they're in the classroom all day and when you get home from work. You want to come home sit down on the couch.

Um, he was the first person in this family to graduate from college getting a bachelor's degree in political science from the University Of Kentucky in 2013 he went on to attend the University Of Alabama Law School Wilson worked as a public defender in Williamsburg Kentucky before becoming a prosecutor for the commonwealths attorney's office. Ah, the 34 off judicial circuit in 2018. Ah, Wilson said that his legal education helped him win survivor because he used his skills of logic and persuasive argument making friends and alliances and gathering the use of information. So that's.

J. Aundrea
Me.

49:10.00
J. Aundrea
Right.

49:10.95
Bruce Anthony
That's his words recently he filed a bill to add sexual contact to the incest statute in Kentucky which he said was motivated by his ah desire to combat familial and cynical abuse in the state. He said he wanted to protect the victims of incest from being coherced or manipulated into sexual relationships by their relatives The only problem was he made a mistake on the Bill. We inadvertently removed first cousins from the list of relationships that qualify as incest.

49:37.30
J. Aundrea
Yes.

49:45.30
J. Aundrea
Oh.

49:49.68
Bruce Anthony
Effectively legalizing sex between first cousins in the state of Kentucky he saying he didn't intend for that to be the case and it was a drafting error now.

50:00.26
J. Aundrea
No yes which he did correct within the day like he did. He did go back head but as such like if you if you were to think of the stereotype of.

50:06.34
Bruce Anthony
I don't care I don't care a did he correct it did he I had a friend to reach out to me on Instagram and.

50:18.56
J. Aundrea

50:45.90
Bruce Anthony

J. Aundrea

Bruce Anthony
Gross any of the bloodline gross. This ain't 1400 England

51:09.28
J. Aundrea
And no and let me say some the inbreeding caused problems. Ok so so that's just too genetically close that is my that is my Aunt's child like that's too damp.

51:15.43
Bruce Anthony
Right.

51:23.96
Bruce Anthony
Right? you.

51:27.87
J. Aundrea
And then when you think about how close cousins can be particularly like in the black community. Not no, no, no yes Yes, yes, yes.

51:36.14
Bruce Anthony
Um, we know all our first cousins and our second cousins we some of them are like siblings to us. That's how close cousins could be so so all right? He said it was a mistake.

51:47.24
J. Aundrea
Yes, he he.

51:51.48
Bruce Anthony
But it just so happens that this mistake happened in the state of Kentucky with a republican I saw all I'm saying that's all, um and did he say it was an error. Yeah, also he he said it was an error but he said it was an error once it became super.

51:55.95
J. Aundrea
Right? right? and that makes it hilarious that makes it hilarious.

52:10.27
J. Aundrea
Fright. Yes.

52:11.31
Bruce Anthony
Public and became a laughing stock did he did he originally intend to have first cousins I would do like the former president Donald Trump some people are saying that he knew what he was doing. Some people are saying. That's all I'm saying some people saying.

52:25.15
J. Aundrea
And maybe try this, maybe try to slip something in under the radar he got it, you know and it's not and it's not like this ah Bill is not something that's important it is.

52:29.38
Bruce Anthony
As somebody caught it.

52:39.44
J. Aundrea
Um, it is in protecting. Um young people or any family member from any kind of coercion or things like that ince as though this is an important bill so it kind of makes it a little ridiculous and so his. Whole thing is like I hope it doesn't Torpedo the bill this whole thing that makes it you know so ridiculous. But he said it was a mistake I I don't know like why was it omitted like why was it.

53:08.14
Bruce Anthony
I Yeah somebody somebody that was helping him draft it either him or somebody was helping draft. It was like look I've been in love with my cousin all my life I think we should be able to.

53:17.10
J. Aundrea
Removed.

53:27.77
Bruce Anthony
Be together somebody somebody wanted some cousin love extensively clear.

53:28.36
J. Aundrea
Because because this I mean the list is pretty clear as parent parent child grandparent grandchil great grandparent great grandchil uncle aunt nephew niece brother sister first cousin ancestor or. Descendant like it's pretty clear so to go in from that list and remove first cousin like feels feels like it feels like it might have been on purpose.

54:03.60
Bruce Anthony
Um, hey look my man was like look as I said in the last segment Al Bundy said it best when he talked about pegs family where the state model was I believe it was West Virginia

54:08.50
J. Aundrea
I sneak a little something in.

54:17.30
J. Aundrea
Um.

54:20.71
Bruce Anthony
Nothing says loving than marrying your cousin my man Nick Wilson believed in that we're we're slander and Nick Wilson um he said you go fake it. We look somebody.

54:28.64
J. Aundrea
Um, you ah yeah, really really are really are he did He did fix it. Also it was just a proposal it did it. It didn't pass. So.

54:38.27
Bruce Anthony
But you just don't hear you just don't hear. This is the reason why I find it funny you know on top of the last segment and republicans denying kids food. It seems like Republicans do a lot of hateful stuff right? But here was an instance.

54:38.69
J. Aundrea
Like it's just it's just a proposed measure at this point don't go.

54:52.98
J. Aundrea
No no, who was to dad. It's that it's just not okay, just that. Okay.

54:56.38
Bruce Anthony
Where it wasn't hateful. It was celebration of love family. Love and. No I'm not saying this's okay, I'm just saying hey at least at 1 point you know we harp and harp on republicans for for some of their hateful acts. This was a act that was done for love. Yeah.

55:20.16
J. Aundrea
No I Just ah I I am hoping that it is what he says it is and that it was simply a gaff. It was a simply a drafting error.

55:30.29
Bruce Anthony
Ah I I.

55:35.18
Bruce Anthony
Are and think about it though if you're going to omit something.

55:37.18
J. Aundrea
I don't know why if you copy in and paste in from the current law. Why some reason first cousin got omitted from that copy paste. Right? right? right? It would be cousin. It would be that would be it. Yeah yes, yes.

55:53.40
Bruce Anthony
That had was incest related because you trying to slip under the radar. It would be first cousins. Yeah, it would be cousins it would it would be cousins right because I guess second cousins is isn't illegal that isn't considered incest in the state of Kentucky right? but.

56:07.86
J. Aundrea
It listen it wasn't on the list. The list goes pretty clear. Your second cousin is neither your ancestor nor your descendant. So.

56:13.32
Bruce Anthony
But so so so basically I was right? Their motto is nothing says love in the marrying your cousin so I had a right to steal joke because they just they just go and go back and change it to first cousins.

56:31.60
J. Aundrea
Yes, hey it's really not because that's my Aunt's child's shout right? like I can that we can't do no.

56:32.84
Bruce Anthony
But second cousins is ok. That's that's my aunt's grandchild. That's my aunt's grandchild.

56:51.66
Bruce Anthony
