Suicide Prevention Saturday - Just talking about it can help prevent it.

All right, I am totally doing a reverse Hillbilly. And for those of you who don't know Hillbilly, it says it starts at 10 Eastern time, but it doesn't really start till like 10 after. So everyone gets to come in and start chatting because they get notified he's going live. Um, right now my Guns and Mental Health water bottle is not letting me see the chat, but I'm gonna tell who I said hi to already because I saw Hillbilly way early. Crabby Turtles here, uh, DJ and Mike White. No, here's the reality of this here. We are not starting yet. We will start at the normal time of 9 o'clock, but last week I got all these errors about Facebook and all that sort of stuff. So tonight, obviously, we're not even in my office, and yes, I'm actually in jammies. Jammies, we call them jammies, um, pajamas. And, um, so I'm going to go over to my Facebook side and check that out and see if it's actually working because last week it did not. All right. So I'm going to have to move this cause I can't see through that. Um, all right. So I'm on Facebook. I can't see any, anything. Let me go to my Facebook thing. And I'm also limited cause I only have one screen. Hmm, it is not showing it's live on Facebook. Ah, oh, see, the little error errors came up. All right, having trouble streaming Facebook. This may be an issue on Facebook's end. Oh, son of a biscuit. All right, so really, I am totally just here. Hey, Chasing Ghost, um, Tara GT3, I was talking about you today, girl, boy, whatever. Yeah, I, I caught the dude at a, uh Planet Fitness this evening, uh, lady. And, um, yeah, he was offended. Like, dude, I'm so sorry. Okay, um, I'm trying to figure out what the problem is with Facebook. We're having trouble, so I'm actually— I'm, yeah, it doesn't matter whether you see me or not. Um, I don't think y'all don't care, right? All right, so we're having trouble streaming to Facebook. There may be an issue. If I edit it, what does it say? Nope, that's just that. If I go and view on Facebook, why does it not show me anything? If I hit play, will it work? It's thinking about it. Sorry, we're having trouble playing this video. See, this is totally stinkers. And this is why I'm early this time. Um, DJ, do the paintings on the wall behind you— no, he's not. My kids did those probably 10, 15— well, 10-ish years ago for the most part. Um, so yeah, no, that is not art. That, that however is a, um, this is a Target Uh, it's not Captain America. I don't know if you can really tell, but it really is like pink and red. Uh, but yeah, I'm so annoyed. All right, um, what happens if I close and come back on? Then this goes away and you guys would need to find a new stream. No, you don't need to find a new stream because you're— oh, DJ would get lost though if I left and came back because then I would have to create a new stream, I think. See, and this is totally why I'm on here. All right, here, here's what I'm going to do. How can I do this? All right, I know what I'm doing. I'm going over to Facebook on my phone and I'm going to see if I can get folks to come over here from there, come from the dark side. So, well, um, sorry, some of my Facebook feed is interesting. So if I go to YouTube, go to this feed, which is always weird talking to y'all and then watching it here. Um, and where is my thing? Sorry, the first thing that's, well, under me is, um, New York Outcast thing of, do you think the government has secret space stations or bases off-world? So it says, no, that's crazy talk. Maybe it's crazy to think they don't. So if you haven't been in New York Outcast channel, I would go there probably. Uh, thank you, GG3. All right, where's the share thingy? No, um, nope, that's not it because I was gonna share New York Outcast. All right, I need to go to the live thingy. And yes, I have to walk myself through these things. Oh, and it's making noise. I won't do that. Uh, no. Oh my gosh, it wants me to report myself. I'm like, stop. Okay, for real, this should not be so hard. There's the share button. Yay! Let's share to the news feed. Yes. All right. Sorry folks, the Suicide Prevention Saturday chat is only working on Facebook— only working on YouTube, y'all. Or YouTube— I can't spell and talk at the same time. This is really a bummer. Um, because this is the whole reason I have StreamYard is so I can go one place and be everywhere. But no. All right, stick the thingy there. Okay, come on, paste. Oh no, it's already— it's already there. Oh my goodness. And this is why we're on 10 minutes early, so maybe I can get this to actually work. Oh my goodness gracious. Um, and then YouTube's going to get mad at me because I can't do my thing that I said I'm doing live for. I suppose I could go live on my phone, right? Right. You guys are here for my technical support, right? This is why you all are here. Um, all right. So who'd I miss? I got GT3 chasing ghosts, Krabby Turtle with my— his pink hand waving, always. Um, oh yeah, thank you for putting a New York Outcasts, uh, community, uh, tab there for y'all. So you can go, feel free. Like I said, we will start at 9 o'clock as per normal. Um, while I'm trying to figure out this lovely Facebook challenge, um, which is just totally, completely, and totally annoying. So I'm like, for real, I'm like, I don't remember how to do Facebook Live from here. It's a DJ. You got any ideas, DJ?

What up, homie?

Hey, we went live early because I'm trying to see if I can fix Facebook. It is not looking promising. It's very annoyance.

I got the same error message on the way in, and I did not know that the stream was live. So hey, how's your, how's your evening?

Yeah, well, that's, you know, we've got more people here faster, uh, because everybody got the thing. And I, I said I'm doing a reverse hillbilly, uh, I'm starting 10 minutes early and I'll actually start at 10, or at, yeah, at 9. Um, but right now I'm trying to figure out how to go Facebook Live here, so So even though I can't stream Facebook Live through StreamYard, that I will do Facebook Live on my channel.

Well, bring it to your screen right now. This from Hillbilly Up. If you share your YouTube link to Facebook, when people click on it, it should take them to YouTube, right?

And I did that. My, my challenge is because Facebook is so particular about crap. When you say you're going live and then you don't go live, they get pissed and they will turn you off. So that's why I'm trying to figure out how to go live on here, um, but it's not letting me get to my school one, which is the one that has the event. It's viejo. Is it Monday? See, Mondays are my favorite because of Moldy Monday, um, because Moldy Monday is just so funny to me always. Um, DJ, since you're here, how is the audio? I know I'm kind of far away from the computer, but I'm being lazy and putting my feet up and stuff.

In my headphones, you are great. Uh, let's ask the audience out there, how is, how is Brooke's audio coming through?

Crabby Turtle always has the, my, one of my favorite opinions on that, the 5x5. Okay, I remember once finally finding out what 5x5 meant, and then I've since forgotten that. So, um, oh, here it is. Maybe no, that's That is not it. Oh, Moldy Monday has come to an end.

What?

That is the saddest thing I've read all day.

Well, but you have the opportunity to double back on them. There's like 52 of them.

So 52 of what?

Of Moldy Mondays. Wasn't that a year-long— I'll ask Viejo. I think that was a year-long series, right?

No, no, I just— like I said, I just love saying Moldy Monday because Viejo is here. So, um, all right, I guess DJ, you and I have to remember to make sure, uh, we take all the Facebook feeds down off of the other ones, and this is going to end up being just YouTube. So this may change going forward. All right, it's like, uh, what is that called? 52 in a row. That's a lot, dude.

That's a lot of information.

That's a lot of molds too, for sure.

That's dedication.

That's, that's, it's for sure. And then I'll pat myself on the back. I'm like, yeah, I, I don't know how many that is. Just do 52 by since whatever 2018 was, and that's how many of these I've done. All right, it's 9 o'clock. I'm— you want to hit the button, or I'm going to hit the button? I don't even know where the thing is. There it is. No, it is. Okay, 9 o'clock, hit the button. Now we're gonna hit the button. I hope it's 3. That was not the right button. Ta-da! And it's Suze Rinse Saturday. Why? Because 2 out of every 3 gun deaths you hear about on the news are suicides. And, um, and, and so I'm looking, I'm like, Sariah fan, I'm like, no dude, it's okay, it's all right, it's all good. Um, we are here because 2 out of every 3 suicides that, uh, people tell you about are suicides. And if we actually want to be honest and save lives, we want to talk about mental health prevention mental health prevention, mental health and suicide prevention. And I swear the only thing I've been drinking today is my water that has my cool Walk the Talk fancy sticker on there. So if y'all want a guns and mental health sticker, email me your address, I'll send you one. I think it'll probably cost me a buck or something to pop them in the mail because they don't fit in a regular mailer, of course. But I will happily do that. And here's the deal. Actually, no, wait, I'll make a different deal with you. Donate something to Walk the Talk America. Let me know what you donated, or let me know that you donated. I really don't care if it's a dollar, if it's $100, whatever it is, donate to them and I will totally send you a sticker. That's how we'll do this because I want someone to make money, right? So Walk the Talk America, because they're trying to bridge— it's so hard to do this backwards— because they're trying to bridge that gap between gun owners and mental health professionals. So we've got some really fun, exciting stuff coming in the mental health area, suicide prevention, this, uh, kids safety realm, things like that. After SHOT Show, um, Miss Sarah Joy Albrecht is kind of gathering some folks together and we're working on something. We don't know what yet because it's a thing in training, in planning. I don't know. Okay, so it's very exciting. Um, I'm like, I don't know if GT3 is making a joke or if that's a real thing. So, um, I just want to know, is it serious? Is there such a soda called Poppy? Because that's just funny. I mean, regardless if it's real or not, I would just try it probably because it just seems silly. Miss Vanessa Kitty, it's been a minute. How are you, dear? And all right, so 2 out of every 3 gun deaths are suicides. If we're serious about saving lives, we gotta talk mental health. We have to talk suicide prevention, and we have to be aware, and we need to be able to talk about hard things and understand we don't have the solution. I think The most common question I've always gotten is, how could I have known that they were going to commit suicide? And sorry, I'm— so it's a real soda. Yes, it's a real soda. Um, because I know y'all were wondering just like I was. All right, so we have to be able to talk about hard things and understand that we're not going to have the answer to everything. There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to mental health. There is no one thing for sure is gonna let somebody know if someone else is suicidal. It's sort of like dieting is my favorite, uh, example, mainly because at some point in our lives, most of us have been on a diet of some sort or another, and/or you know someone who went on a diet and it either worked really well or it totally sucked and they got fatter, right? And for most of us, that's all of us. Like, there are certain diets out there that work for people, but not that one diet doesn't work for everyone. This is the same problem with mental health. This is the same challenge when people ask me about, um, how would I know that they're suicidal? And the good news is the more we can talk about it the more comfortable people who may or may not be having suicidal thoughts will be willing to talk about it. So this is why, like the thumbnail says, just talking about it can be helpful. And I don't know, I don't know, sorry, my camera seems to go bright and dark and bright and dark. I'm like, what am I doing to make it move? So, um, so yeah, that is why we are here. What are some things we can talk about have to do with mental health? Let's see, how about failure? Failure is one of these things that a lot of people these days don't want to have. And the only way to success is through failure. And it seems as though there's a lot of folks that think they should be successful without ever trying or having any fail.

Yay.

Oh, sorry. Good job, Mike. So I'd like everyone to celebrate 5 days, no cigarettes for Mike. That's a huge deal. He's doing lots of stuff all the time, but every, every moment, every moment is a new moment. So it's 5 days and counting. So good job. And I take it that means you saw the post on Facebook since you're over here on the YouTube side. Yeah, Facebook is not behaving properly. Um, so Mr. Mike White, thank you. Um, oh, G23, look at you go, man! Um, cigarette since December 11th. I was like, sorry, I don't have my glasses. I'm like, is that 1 or 11? I'm like, the first. But anyway, um, yeah, that is awesome. And, uh, Crabby Turtle, thanks for the encouragement. Oh, it's the Osborne, Orsbourn. Yeah, that one. Um, nice to see you, sir. All right. So, hmm, mental health, one size never fits all. We have to find what works for us, but we can't know the answer for somebody else. Like I said, the whole point of doing this every Saturday night for the past however many years, let's see, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24. So October will be 6 years. So we're in our 5th year of Suicide Prevention Saturdays. And with 5 years, I'm just a toddler. I'm still figuring this stuff out. Most of us are still figuring this stuff out. When you look at religions, uh, Zen, Buddhism, Christianity, uh, there's always somewhere that you're supposed to go. Like Buddhism and Zen, it's like you get to this enlightenment portion of the world where basically you just accept things as they are. One, I get confused because I don't know it all really well, but, uh, and DJ, if you happen to know off the top of your head, please let me know. But there is one of them, I don't know if it's Buddhism or the idea philosophy of Zen, is everything that happens just is. It's not good, it's not bad, it just is. And if you and I can manage to find where life is just happening and we don't define it as good or bad, we'll actually be a lot more content. However, I have had amazing shamans come into my life and explain this to me. It's like, no, no, it just is. And there are certain things in our lives that, no, that really sucked, uh, you know, losing my sister, right? It's like, okay, that just is. It is part of life though. Losing people, whether it's a child, a sister, a grandparent, a sibling, all of that sort of stuff. Wow, I said sister like 5 times. Anyway, it just is, it is part of life. So the good stuff that we have, uh, we're having my 25th, uh, our 25th wedding anniversary this year.

Yay!

Um, so that's good stuff, right? Bad stuff, uh, losing my sister. It's the easiest one to come up with that everyone could understand. Because, well, I suppose there's some of you who wouldn't mind losing a sibling depending on the sibling, but I liked my sister most of the time. And so the idea that we can make it so it just is, if you can wrap your head around that, it could possibly change your life. It could possibly help you help someone else. And then, you know, you've heard me before where I say When something happens, it's not awesome. Like Tara's— Tara was here, I think. I know Tara was here. I don't know if she's still here, um, because she's often driving on Saturday nights. But, um, you know, bad things happen, right? She got in a motorcycle accident, really messed up her legs. Lots of pain, lots of suffering, lots of, uh, PT. But what's good about this? Uh, she got to stay home for a while. She wasn't out on the, uh, um, road all the time. She had to spend time with her family, things like that. Uh, her— I don't know how things are going with her niece, so we'll talk about that another time. But it's just like, what's good about this? And to me, that helps get you closer to that, okay, if, if I think it sucks And I can ask the question, what's good about this? Then I can get it a little bit closer to it just is. If it's really good, I think I'm just going to stay up there and enjoy that. Like, I'm super excited about our 25th wedding anniversary. I love my husband to pieces, and I'm super excited about that. I don't want to say that just is. So to be fair, there's this awesome story about a farmer, and I don't know it exactly, but the short— shorter version is this. There's a farmer, he has a prize colt or stallion, and the stallion breaks off, breaks out, and runs away. And the townspeople are like, oh, that's so sad, that's so sad, it's too bad. And the farmer says Maybe. A couple days later, the stallion comes back. He's got a brood of mares. Oh, so lucky, so lucky, is what the townspeople say. And the farmer says, hmm, uh, maybe. And then the, uh, son goes out and tries to break some of the horses and gets thrown off, breaks his leg. And the, the Townspeople are like, oh, that's too bad. And the farmer says, what? Everyone type it in, right? The farmer says, maybe. A week later, a war starts and they come to the house and— or they come to the town and they're looking for all able-bodied men. And because his son has a broken leg, he doesn't get taken off to the war. So of course everyone's like, oh, so lucky. So this is kind of the best story that I can think of that helps kind of push forward that idea of it just is. Uh, when I was in high school, I was training for the Olympics and I had started skiing at like 4 or 5 years old. I started ski racing probably at 12 or 13 years old. And then I went to a special school in high school so I could try to get to the Olympics. Well, here I am, 18 years old. I'm not going to college because I'm going to take the winter, the year off, so I can take the winter to compete so that I can see if I can get the points I need to actually get into the Olympics. So our, our competition season basically starts in January. My dad hooked me up with a condo up north. I've got my trainers and my coaches. I've got a job so that I can afford to stay up there for the entire season. Well, um, I'm practicing at this point. I had gone from racing to ballet and freestyle and jumping, and I was doing my routine and I did a flip and I landed wrong and I busted my knee. So at the time, my life was shattered, right? 18-year-old, oh, I don't know. Yeah, it was not a pleasant Christmas. I busted my knee before a single event. And so I'm 18 years old, come home on crutches. My Olympic chances are zero now. I am crushed. And this is the worst thing ever. Well, on the plus side, I already had a college picked out that I was accepted to that I could go to next year. So at least that was something that was good. But you weren't telling me that then, not on that Christmas. So I went back up, I finished my job, I kept the lease, all that fun stuff. So I did the responsible thing on that side of things. Then I'm like, all right, that's fine. I come home I work my normal, like, 3 or 4 summer jobs, and I'm getting ready for college. It's out in California, it's Redlands College. It was my first choice. I was super excited. I picked up my roommates, my courses. It's August, get the tuition bill, and my dad was going to take care of it. My dad's like, um, no. I can't do it. And I'm like, what? Now, just to make things a little bit worse, he bought a vehicle that happened to cost the same amount as my college tuition just a couple months earlier. So was I frustrated, mad, and upset? Yes, I was devastated. I'm back up in my room crying. I can't believe this is the worst thing that's ever happened in my life. First I can't make the Olympics, now I can't go to the college of my choice. Oh, what am I going to do? So I don't even have a time to get into a college, and, um, now I'm like, God, what the— oh, so I look up UConn. I'm a non-matriculating student, so I can just take courses there without actually being accepted. And that was the best I could do on that amount of notice because this is mid-August. Most every school is starting up within the next few weeks. All right, so does that sound like a sad story? Do you not see how this soul would be crushed? And all of those things seem very, very horrible. But what did I tell you about before the story? I'm about to celebrate my 25th wedding anniversary. If all of those things had not happened, I would not be here in this house. With this man, with these children. So the point is, we do not know where our road is going to bring us. We do not know our journey. No matter what we want or how we intend our lives to go, it usually doesn't. And like G23 and I talked about, God always has another plan. So with that, DJ, you You've been quiet for way too long. You have got to at least do the roll call.

I would be happy to do that. This evening we were joined by Hillbilly Up. The Crabby Turtle was out there as well. Mike White joined us. G23 Chasing Ghosts. Vanessa Kitty was out there. So was Viejo. Uh, Sorry Fan 93 was out there. So was Michael Bellinger and Gizzard Gary. Ozzy Oursborne. The Oursborne version.

It's oars, like we're rowing a boat, I think.

I, I myself tripped up on that so many times. Um, I don't remember when the last one was, but first couple of months I saw his name, I went straight to the other pronunciation. So working on trying to be correct with everybody's name could be a difficult task. You get hundreds of people and their pronunciations are not always clear.

So, well, it's all right. If it makes you feel any better, I called him a girl. So he's like, no, I'm a dude. I'm like, okay, sorry. So, you know, it's all good. Um, Viejo, I am glad you enjoyed the illustration. Um, it's really my favorite because I remember that crushed feeling, right? Um, I totally get that there are things that happen to us that we planned on, that we worked so hard for, and then it doesn't happen. And this is where faith really comes in. This is why people who have— sorry, I can't see me so small. It's just like we do stuff that makes us— like, we're focused on our outcome. My outcome was to at least qualify for the Olympics. I needed to get enough points that season to get the Olympics. And then when I was cut short where I didn't even get to a single competition, Well, that was the end of that. Plus now I'm broken. And then, okay, well, my next bright light is I get to go to the college of my choice, like, yay. And then I don't get to. So now I'm getting crushed again. And it's just like, yeah, sometimes we take 3 steps back to take 1 step forward, but it doesn't mean it's bad. And that's when I started— we're talking about, um, started talking about failure. Is that most of us look at failure as just that, a fail, when in actuality, if you're not failing, you're not trying anything. Uh, viejo, hmm, let's talk about molds for a second, just for a moment. Uh, how many times did you get a mold and get the perfect, uh, casting out of it the very first time you tried that mold? I'm going to give you a moment to respond because I know there's that little lag here and everything, but everybody just think about that. Driving. I mean, since— sorry. Yeah, there we go. Now I'm going to say it wrong too. So you're a fan, um, you know, driving, uh, you know, it's one of those things where you take little baby steps to get somewhere. You don't immediately start out in a Formula One car and drive all over the countryside. Not how it works. We take little steps, we learn what doesn't work, and that's really what failure is, right? We tried something, it didn't work out the way we wanted to. And who was it? Edison, I think, is one of his quotes, is that whole, um, what it took him 2,000 times before he invented the light bulb. And his solution was what? He just found 1,999 ways that it didn't work. DJ, you got the numbers, you know.

Oh, not exactly, though I do have respect for him as an inventor. I was thinking the instant versus the incremental. Most of us are able to pick up things that, you know, we do through repetition, but walking into an instantaneous success with something, if it has more than one step, good luck.

Exactly. And I mean, in even one step. All right. Ooh, so Diego's actually got pretty good odds here, man. 50% on very first drop. The rest takes more, but I know that given the right adjustments and care, I'll get it right. Exactly. And this is life, right? Um, oh yeah. So one of the things I say to my students all the time, once is luck, twice is skill. In that if we get it right the first time, then there's some skill involved, maybe, or maybe just be luck. Like, DJ, what about you when you're playing a song, right? Do you get the whole song right the first time just because you can read the music?

No, and I can't read the music, so I'm one step further behind.

Okay. All right. Um, I had a— I think I told you about this before, but I had a roommate in school who she never took any music. She was just— she could listen to something and play it on the piano, and she never read anything ever. Um, she found it very hard to learn how to read music, but she finally did. But she ended up being a concert pianist, of course. But so yeah, I mean, well, and I think that there—

with, uh, Viejo's success, and I'll relate to my own in that regard because you brought up playing a song, that instant versus incremental You begin to gain confidence as you make those first incremental steps towards success and you build on that initial, those initial successes, you chain them together and pretty soon you have a general competence with some things. If you remove ego from it and you just look back at all the work that you have done, you're often, I am at least able to translate that into at least a positive feeling, if not something that I can carry far past the moment that I realize it.

Yeah, yeah, I mean, absolutely. And like my, uh, one of the, you know, we see so many things on the internet all the time, right? And one of them is, it does not matter how many times you fall down, it only matters how many times you get back up. And I mean, I figure any skill that we've learned, uh, okay, most of us can walk. And that is because no one told us we couldn't. And when you're a baby, you're not counting how many times you fell down on your face before you were able to walk. The older we get, the more counting we tend to do. So Lincoln ran from leadership. How many times? Wait, I tried to click on that and then it did not. All right, I won't touch it, DJ. Sorry. Ran for leadership many times and failed. But he did become president. Oh yeah, I mean, oh, so yeah, I'll try not to— I'll try to stay away from politics because I'm in politics and I am a politician. Um, but it's just one of these things where it's just like, no one just becomes president. No one just becomes a senator or a congressman. Generally, they've done other things to lead up to there. So it's a Pat in a bunker. You missed the roll call, so I'll just say hi. Um, so anyway, um, that's what I got. So anyway, um, we started early, uh, and it was because of all the technical difficulties over on the Facebook side. And I think 20-ish minutes after 9 o'clock is enough of the time. It's been total 34 minutes for the whole thing. DJ, got anything more you want to say before we go? Questions, etc.?

I do.

Okay.

Robert Burns is one of my favorite poets, and I couldn't believe when we chanced into this, his poem To a Mouse occurs to me. And I think you'll know the most famous line from it. It is, the best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry.

I was just saying that the other day. Someone's like, I didn't read that book. And I'm like, I don't know if there's a book. I mean, I know there's A Book of Mice and Men, but I didn't realize that was part of a poem. I just know it's something that we say.

The John Steinbeck novel. Yeah, yeah, that's the— where the— yeah, the inspiration for that title. Exactly.

And I'm with Tara. Chasing ghosts, a little punch drunk at this point with all the getting back up. And I totally get that. Um, although I will say, as much as it sucks, right? Um, for those of us who— people's like, well, God doesn't give you more than you can handle. It's like, okay, I'm good with not being able to handle anything more than this. And I wish you had less faith in me, right? That's usually what we say. But on the other side of it, since I actually went to the gym tonight and worked out as I'm supposed to, Uh, the other side is each time we get up, just like a broken bone, when it heals, it's a little bit stronger. Every time we get knocked down or the wind knocked out of us or some tragedy and we get back up, we're that much stronger. And this is where that whole idea of every time you get knocked down doesn't matter if it's the first time, the 100th time, the thousandth time, what feels like the 100,000th time. It's that you get back up. And here's the thing, we are in this community, right? We've got Pat in the Monkey— wow. And Tara says she's a puncher. Pat in the Bunker, Mike White from 2A Advocacy, Hillbilly Up, Ozzy Osbourne, Chasing Ghosts, G23, uh, DJ obviously here on with me. And, um, I just can't scroll up fast enough. Who am I missing? Surya Fan, Viejo, right? Mike Ballinger, Gizzard Gary. Here's the deal, we are all so very blessed because most of us have somebody else's phone number. Like, there's a couple people on this list that I could call if I wanted to. DJ's one, uh, Hillbilly's one, Mike is one, um, Gizzard I think I can just annoy via email. Um, so I might have got his name shot. But the idea is like, when you're knocked down, it isn't always about getting yourself up. Sometimes it's, hey DJ, I'm having a crap day. What can you do for me today? And then DJ just is like, rock. And that's enough.

Never underestimate the power of the rock. It does bring smiles to people's faces. Or stares and quizzical looks kind of thing. Yeah.

So, I mean, that's the other part is when you're down, remembering people care, remembering you can reach out for that hand that will help you up. And like Hillbilly says, go on and make somebody's day better. And DJ says it, but in a different way. And with that, I'm going to let DJ close us out with what he normally says.

When you're out and about in your daily life and you see somebody who is not wearing a smile, make one. Like, thank everybody for stopping by the program this evening. Come back next Saturday, bring a friend, share out this stream, give a thumbs up, make a comment. Let's get the— the— oh, pardon me. Let's get that algorithm working in our favor. This is a worthy message. So that's what I got, uh, for me, for Brooke, for everybody. Uh, want to pass you this: be safe, have fun, take care of your crew and yourselves, and rock!

Thanks, DJ.
