- 0:23Speaker 2: And yeah, I think we're just happy to be here, folks, right,
- 0:26Speaker 2: because this was quite the weekend.
- 0:28Speaker 1: And no joke about your fiance, Eric. He was in
- 0:31Speaker 1: a little bit of a dangerous situation over the weekend.
- 0:34Speaker 2: He seriously was, and I wish he had listened to me.
- 0:37Speaker 2: So we headed out on the road because, as you said,
- 0:40Speaker 2: he's a musician and he's got a gig and it's
- 0:43Speaker 2: in Plymouth, Massachusetts, on the on the rock. They're going
- 0:46Speaker 2: to play on the rock.
- 0:47Speaker 3: He played actually on Plymouth Rock.
- 0:48Speaker 2: Okay, it's really tiny, but in that vicinity. So he
- 0:53Speaker 2: headed up Saturday morning and he was actually kind of nervous.
- 0:56Speaker 2: He's not usually nervous about driving, but he said, I'm
- 0:58Speaker 2: meeting up with my friend in Connecticut. His car is
- 1:01Speaker 2: really reliable. We're good oh, you said it. I was like,
- 1:05Speaker 2: please take extra blankets, take some food, take some water.
- 1:08Speaker 2: And he was kind of like what. And I was like,
- 1:11Speaker 2: take blankets, take food, take water. He's like, put Craig's
- 1:14Speaker 2: car is good. I'm like, if you guys end up
- 1:16Speaker 2: on the side of the road, you're gonna need this.
- 1:19Speaker 3: Well.
- 1:19Speaker 2: Sure enough, they're driving, he said, it was wide out conditions.
- 1:24Speaker 2: They're driving through a snowstorm. So we've got three musicians
- 1:27Speaker 2: in a car and they get a flat tire. And
- 1:30Speaker 2: it wasn't just like a it was like a boof
- 1:32Speaker 2: like Eric said he heard it. He opened the door,
- 1:35Speaker 2: he looked out and he's like, we've got a flat.
- 1:37Speaker 2: We've got to pull off the road. To the point
- 1:39Speaker 2: of like they were on the rim, you like, you're
- 1:41Speaker 2: not even supposed to drive. But they didn't want to
- 1:43Speaker 2: stay on a on a busy road, so they pulled
- 1:46Speaker 2: off into a town. I don't know what town it was,
- 1:48Speaker 2: and there's a church and Eric's like, just pull over here,
- 1:53Speaker 2: I know, And I was telling him. I'm like, and
- 1:56Speaker 2: he's sending me little videos throughout the day, you know,
- 1:58Speaker 2: updating me. It's like three musicians on the side of
- 2:00Speaker 2: a road. In a snow store with an empty church.
- 2:04Speaker 2: What could go wrong? No, I didn't even think a joke.
- 2:06Speaker 2: I thought more like the start of a horror movie.
- 2:10Speaker 2: But gosh, we can run in.
- 2:12Speaker 3: Here, We'll be okay.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Yeah, so they did. They called Triple A. Unfortunately, within
- 2:18Speaker 2: an hour somebody came out.
- 2:20Speaker 3: That's pretty good.
- 2:20Speaker 2: Actually, that is really good. They were very fortunate. But
- 2:24Speaker 2: Eric said he went. Christine told me they had nothing
- 2:29Speaker 2: that you mentioned. They had symbols, you know, like that
- 2:33Speaker 2: a warm up.
- 2:37Speaker 3: They made their gig on time, by the way.
- 2:39Speaker 2: And they actually made their gig on time. And I
- 2:41Speaker 2: think their plan was to drive home that night, and
- 2:44Speaker 2: then it was like we're staying. They had to stay
- 2:46Speaker 2: overnight and get the tire replace the next day.
- 2:49Speaker 1: Christine, you were one hundred percent right. Every car should
- 2:51Speaker 1: have an emergency kit. And here's what you should have
- 2:54Speaker 1: in your car. Even though winter time is almost over,
- 2:58Speaker 1: but you still might want to have these with that
- 3:00Speaker 1: couple of weeks in ice, craper, snowbrush, a small shovel, jumper, cables, blankets,
- 3:07Speaker 1: a flashlight, a flare if you're on the side of
- 3:09Speaker 1: the road, even cat litter, because maybe you just need
- 3:13Speaker 1: a little traction.
- 3:14Speaker 2: For your tires, get out a spott.
- 3:15Speaker 1: Litter comes in handy for that, and a first aid kit.
- 3:18Speaker 1: And always make sure you leave with at least you know,
- 3:20Speaker 1: more than half of a tank of gas. Yes, you know,
- 3:23Speaker 1: trying to go full of the camp but oh and
- 3:26Speaker 1: non perishable snacks and the water.
- 3:28Speaker 3: And make sure your phone is charged.
- 3:30Speaker 2: And listen to listen to your woman in your life.
- 3:33Speaker 3: When the woman says something, you know, guys, we never listened.
- 3:37Speaker 2: We're right, I'm telling you, we're right.
- 3:39Speaker 3: Sometimes listening can save your life. Absolutely.
- 3:41Speaker 2: I don't think you had drumsticks on there. I think
- 3:44Speaker 2: sticks and brushes were also some of the necessity.
- 3:47Speaker 3: Yeah, musicians obviously
