  Speaker 3: You can't stand them anymore, things that are on your mind,
• 0:13
  Speaker 3: and you want to get them off your mind. So
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: finally you say, I know it's a last resort. I
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: will send these two radio from Hell. Maybe if they
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: read them on the air, it will make me feel better. Maybe, maybe,

  Speaker 3: after we read them. So send your things that must
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: go to Radio from Hell at X ninety six dot com.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: This one says, good morning, Radio from Hell. Astronomy on
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: Tap is a great way to discover the universe with scientists, educators, writers, artists,
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: and other cosmic enthusiasts at a bar nearby. Each usually
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: free event is accessible engaging presentations on space and science
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: topics ranging from planets to black holes to gallaxy cool
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: The one held earlier this week featured satellites and climate change.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: I posted the event online to meet new people, and
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: I met several new people at the bar as an
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: event host. But my thing that must go is discovering
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: that I split my pants during a conversation complaining about
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: insurance with a stranger. I felt really embarrassed when I
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: felt this odd breeze passed behind me.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: I left the bar early, grateful.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: That I wasn't hanging things out that night. Thanks for
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: letting me listen, Tony. This one says my thing that
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: must go or my bowels. Let me explain. I can
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: really empathize with this. I attempt to use the bathroom
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: before leaving for work.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: Nothing.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: Then, about halfway to work, the intense urge to vacate
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: my bowels comes, but I'm on the freeway and still
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: fifteen twenty minutes away from work. Upon arriving at work,
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: it's a weird clenching and dash to the bathroom. Oh,
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: please make my bowel movement synchronized with my actual schedule.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Thanks for letting me listen. This one says I have
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: a laundry list of things that must go. I was
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: originally hired as a remote employee before the pandemic, but
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: my company now has decided that everybody must return to
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: an office. There is no office in Utah, so my
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: position will be eliminated at the end of October. On
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: top of that, my wallet and my phone were recently stolen,
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: so I've been dealing with the fallout from that, and
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: I've turned to it into a detective because the police
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: have too many cases. Additionally, my mom was just diagnosed
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: with aggressive cancer last week, and my daughter's cat had
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: to undergo surgery to have his spleen removed. Lastly, the
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: corruption in our federal government. Thanks for letting me listen
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: to your cynical friend to Jessica. And this one. There's
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: just two short ones here. I live in North Carolina,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: and the humidity must go. It's Mother Nature's sauna down here,
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: and I work outside. Winter cannot come fast enough. Also,
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: crazy neighbors must go. I love listening to you guys, Beth.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: And then this one from doctor Mike. The reflection Pool,
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: the ballroom, the Arch, the war and Iran Straight of

• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Oh no, no sign.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: Three surgeries this summer. Two blown tires, still disabled. Boom.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: This one from Suzanne without an E. People who know
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: me know I don't like to talk on the phone.
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: I'm always trying to get off the phone by saying
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: okay bye, then gooybye, okay.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: See you later.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: So please help me deal with it if you can
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: make the following go. People calling me right after I
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: have texted them, knowing I have to pick up because
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: the phone is still in my hand.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I know you're there.
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you don't have to answer. Sleepless at Sandy, I
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: think they must go. Having to take my dog, Walter
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: White to have an echo cardiogram today on doctor Davis's advice.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: Grateful to doctor Davis for taking care of my Walter,
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: but his heart murmur must go, hoping for the best
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: diagnosis possible. And this one from Hunter, Hello peoples, Horsey girl.
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: Gina not taking Frank Christ to task for his dislike
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: of horses must go.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I don't want to make Frank mad.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Seasons don't share the reaper, but does Gina.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I'm in the room with him.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: I don't want to.
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: Me typing in Cody whenever I try to type city
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: must go.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Okay, Oh Hunter, all right, let's see dear Carrie billingin
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: and please don't use my name. My wife and I
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: are foster parents, and recently we adopted a little boy
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: and couldn't be more happy. After doing this for a
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: few years, I've seen misconceptions held by people outside the
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: foster community that must go. Here are a few of them.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Number one, the foster care system rips children from their families,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: so these are misconceptions. DCFS does not want to remove
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: children from their homes. If a child's removed the home
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: situation was unsafe. Even after removal, unless the situation is
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: beyond repair, reunification with the family is the primary goal.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Number two. Foster parents do it for the money. You
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: get a stipend and win benefits that help offset the
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: cost of caring for a child. But I can't believe
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I have to say this, you are not making money.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Number three seeing children in the system as bad or damaged.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: They're traumatized. They didn't do a damn thing to deserve this.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Some of the stuff that's happened to these children is
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: truly horrific. Their behaviors are often a defense mechanism that
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: they create to try to survive. And number four is
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: saying that the children are lucky to have you is
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: foster parents. I know this comes from well meaning place
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: and it's a compliment. However, these kids have been pulled
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: out of their home, sometimes by the police, when they
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: have just a few minutes to put their belongings in
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: a garbage bag. They're putting a strange home with people
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: they don't know. As foster parents, will do our best
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: to give them a home filled with safety and love,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: but there's nothing lucky about their situation. Sorry for the
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: long winded list, thanks for letting me listen.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: All of those things should not have to be disappointed.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: No exactly this from Elaizabrarian lords. Please use your powers
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: to make these things go go excuse me.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Drop off.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: It universally stinks. I want the transporter star Trek promised
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: us already, because parking lots are an s show no
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: matter what ages, the students are shrinking, budgets for essential
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: public services must go, and everything costing too damn much.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: And finally, this, when you bring up that a celebrity
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: has passed away, not that you just blurt it out
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: like Debbie Downer, just because it came up organically in
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: the conversation, you shouldn't be treated like the one who
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: took their precious celebrity from them. The threat of a
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: shin kick is not a valid response. I'm not Frank
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: christ over here management, who knows there's limited space in
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: the fridge in the office yet when it breaks down,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: they don't fix the nice large fridge. They bring in
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: a tiny fridge about a third of the size to
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: replace it. And having soap dispensers in the bathrooms that
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: are decorative only.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: They have a little.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Hand pumped soft soap next to the one of the
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: four sinks. It doesn't make things offered at all when
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: I'm at this sink and the soaps all the way
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: over there.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Thanks.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: That must go on the radio on Hell Show.
