- 0:46Speaker 3: want to start the show this morning, Billy and Lisa
- 0:48Speaker 3: with a question to both of you. I saw a
- 0:51Speaker 3: young kid in my neighborhood cutting grass for other people.
- 0:55Speaker 3: He was going around asking people if they wanted to
- 0:57Speaker 3: hire him to mow their grass. And there he was
- 1:00Speaker 3: with a lawnmower. He must have been I don't even know,
- 1:03Speaker 3: maybe fifteen sixteen years old, just crushing it. And it
- 1:06Speaker 3: got me thinking about summer jobs, some that I have had.
- 1:09Speaker 3: But what about you, Bill, Let's start with you. Any
- 1:11Speaker 3: crazy summer jobs. I have a couple I can throw in.
- 1:14Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, I once had a summer job. You know,
- 1:18Speaker 4: historical Walden Pond and concert Beautiful.
- 1:21Speaker 1: It's famous, right, Walden Pond. Well, they had a summer program.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Where you could have a job. It's one of those
- 1:27Speaker 4: ones you had to know somebody or so, I don't know,
- 1:29Speaker 4: I still have them. So you would go there in
- 1:32Speaker 4: the morning and you worked the pond. You basically walked
- 1:36Speaker 4: through the woods of Walden Pond, cleaning up and picking
- 1:38Speaker 4: up and you know whatever, right do I strike? He
- 1:42Speaker 4: was a clean up and pick up guy. No, I mean,
- 1:45Speaker 4: I've got OCD when it comes to me, not so
- 1:48Speaker 4: much otherwise.
- 1:49Speaker 1: So this became a no show job. It was awesome.
- 1:52Speaker 4: A buddy of mine, Sal who ended up in the
- 1:54Speaker 4: mom went to Vegas. He was my next door neighbor.
- 1:57Speaker 4: He also had the summer job. He had a car
- 2:00Speaker 4: I didn't, so he would drive me to Walden Pond
- 2:03Speaker 4: at eight in the morning and a corvette and we
- 2:07Speaker 4: would go. We would sign in and leave for the
- 2:10Speaker 4: whole day and come back at four o'clock and sign up.
- 2:14Speaker 2: So would you pretend like you were in the woods
- 2:16Speaker 2: the whole day.
- 2:16Speaker 1: I never saw the link Walden Pond. I never even
- 2:20Speaker 1: show it.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Dude, they never got. They never got.
- 2:22Speaker 1: The show came automatically every week. In fact, that was
- 2:25Speaker 1: the best way.
- 2:25Speaker 3: When you go back Friday afternoon, check, sign in, and
- 2:29Speaker 3: then leave.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a no show.
- 2:30Speaker 4: Lenny Clark had a no show at City Hall and
- 2:33Speaker 4: Camber if you want to put that.
- 2:34Speaker 1: He's very public about it.
- 2:35Speaker 4: He was supposed to be a janet I he'd show
- 2:37Speaker 4: up and sign and then go back in the afternoon
- 2:39Speaker 4: and sign up.
- 2:40Speaker 3: I've heard about the no show jobs.
- 2:41Speaker 4: Yeah, and then I had the one at Industrial Steel Company.
- 2:45Speaker 4: It was a summer job when I was in college,
- 2:48Speaker 4: and I almost lost my arm. Remember I got stuck
- 2:50Speaker 4: in the giant droll press and it was pulling my
- 2:52Speaker 4: arm out of my body.
- 2:53Speaker 1: What I wouldn't give imagine.
- 2:55Speaker 4: I'd be like still sleep like a sleeve with nothing
- 2:59Speaker 4: in it built. That was a summer job. Man never
- 3:03Speaker 4: went back after that day, I was like three four
- 3:06Speaker 4: weeks into the gig.
- 3:06Speaker 1: They put me at this big machine. You're not a machine,
- 3:09Speaker 1: no training, Like instantly emergency sirens.
- 3:13Speaker 4: Are going off and I'm dangling from the machine. So anyway,
- 3:17Speaker 4: they're on my summer job.
- 3:18Speaker 2: Well I had.
- 3:18Speaker 5: I I'm from Pennsylvania, So I cleaned condos one summer
- 3:22Speaker 5: in the Polkados at a resort. It was the most
- 3:25Speaker 5: disgusting job I've ever had.
- 3:28Speaker 3: Now with these wealthy people or.
- 3:30Speaker 5: Just like like resort condos, like you'd go to like
- 3:34Speaker 5: you know, in the summer, what'd you find. It's disgusting,
- 3:37Speaker 5: Like people would just leave, like you know, like people
- 3:41Speaker 5: used to be into like talcum powder, remember like powder.
- 3:44Speaker 2: They would just leave powder everywhere, all over the bathroom
- 3:46Speaker 2: like it was.
- 3:47Speaker 5: Everywhere, and then like you'd have to clean like the
- 3:50Speaker 5: tub and that was so gross and it was so gross,
- 3:53Speaker 5: like I can't even believe.
- 3:54Speaker 2: I did it, but I did it. And then I was.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Also like movie dirty dancing was the bolk Nose.
- 4:01Speaker 5: Maybe close by, but and then I was a lifeguard
- 4:04Speaker 5: at the same resort. Oh yes, So I'd take off
- 4:07Speaker 5: my cleaning clothes and I put my bathing suit on
- 4:09Speaker 5: you sure?
- 4:10Speaker 3: Did any boy ever pretend they were drowning so they'd
- 4:14Speaker 3: get multiple sand lot?
- 4:16Speaker 2: No they did not, No, they did not.
- 4:19Speaker 5: I ended up just like sitting on the you know,
- 4:21Speaker 5: the little thing and twirling my whistle.
- 4:22Speaker 3: As yeah, with the whistle.
- 4:24Speaker 5: Yeah, I would twirl the whistle because there was nothing
- 4:26Speaker 5: going on.
- 4:26Speaker 3: Right, wait, so you never had to save anything.
- 4:28Speaker 5: I never had to do anything. I would just literally
- 4:30Speaker 5: just sit there twirling.
- 4:31Speaker 1: The whistle with the bathing suit red.
- 4:33Speaker 3: Yes, it was a little what's that little cross looking thing?
- 4:38Speaker 1: Yeah, life guard symbol. There you go.
- 4:39Speaker 2: I was always at the ready. I was like prepared,
- 4:42Speaker 2: but nothing ever happened.
- 4:43Speaker 3: Okay, Well when you go to like places that have
- 4:46Speaker 3: a lazy river and you know, into a water parks
- 4:49Speaker 3: like Great Wolf Lodge, the lifeguards walk ferociously around.
- 4:52Speaker 5: Well that because you could lose a kid that place.
- 4:55Speaker 5: I remember to wax there like five boys. I was
- 4:58Speaker 5: scared to death that one of them would drown. Like
- 5:00Speaker 5: I was literally like panicked. Yeah we'd lose one.
- 5:03Speaker 3: They should do a good job and they get pay
- 5:04Speaker 3: yeah too, always whistling.
- 5:06Speaker 1: Did you have a summer job justin see everybody's going
- 5:11Speaker 1: and it always has a story.
- 5:12Speaker 3: It's like historical that you have a bad.
- 5:15Speaker 1: Summer job all the time.
- 5:17Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, So, I mean I've shared this before, but
- 5:19Speaker 3: you know, my mom, my mom's best friend worked for
- 5:22Speaker 3: the health department. So when I was twelve years old,
- 5:25Speaker 3: I looked older than I was, So they asked me
- 5:28Speaker 3: to go out with them and go to convenience.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Stores or any stores that sell cigarettes.
- 5:33Speaker 3: And they'd pull up and I'd walk in and try
- 5:36Speaker 3: to buy a pack of cigarettes. And if they sold
- 5:38Speaker 3: them to it to me, the kid. I'd go out,
- 5:41Speaker 3: and then she would go in and she'd write them
- 5:43Speaker 3: a citation.
- 5:44Speaker 1: You were a snitch.
- 5:45Speaker 3: Yeah, that was my first job.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Oh wow, of all people, you were a snitch.
- 5:49Speaker 3: I mean, I paid fifty for a couple of hours.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Why wouldn't I?
- 5:52Speaker 1: I didn't care. I was twelve years old. Were you
- 5:55Speaker 1: gigantic at that time?
- 5:57Speaker 3: I wasn't like fat fat, but I was a bigger
- 6:00Speaker 3: kid and I looked older. Yeah, which is it's ironic
- 6:03Speaker 3: because then I ended up going into a life of
- 6:05Speaker 3: you know, crime, like crime. Yeah, And I ended up
- 6:10Speaker 3: feeling bad because some of these stores were like mom
- 6:13Speaker 3: and pop stores, bodegas. So I go in and be like,
- 6:16Speaker 3: can I have a pack of mab borroough? Most, I'd
- 6:18Speaker 3: say ninety percent said can I see idsus? Some of
- 6:23Speaker 3: them were like.
- 6:23Speaker 1: And they slipped through there you go Wow.
- 6:26Speaker 3: I'd walk out and then she'd walk in with a
- 6:27Speaker 3: thousand dollars fine or whatever it.
- 6:29Speaker 1: Was, Oh boy, which could shut them down. Pause. Like
- 6:32Speaker 1: a lot of those people they didn't have a thousand
- 6:35Speaker 1: dollars to throw away.
- 6:35Speaker 3: I mean, dude, it's illegal to sell cigarettes to a kid,
- 6:38Speaker 3: especially a twelve year old, right, I mean I didn't
- 6:40Speaker 3: look eighteen. I meant it might have looked fifteen or sixteen.
- 6:42Speaker 1: Did you ever buy liquor for kids standing outside?
- 6:44Speaker 3: No? But I used to. We used to wait for
- 6:46Speaker 3: other people to buy liquor for us all the time.
- 6:48Speaker 3: Excuse me, can you buy us a case of beer?
- 6:51Speaker 1: Oh my god, yeah I did that once. You bought it?
- 6:54Speaker 1: Are you not?
- 6:56Speaker 6: Oh?
- 6:56Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say you didn't buy it for kids?
- 6:58Speaker 1: No, I had a baby face. Really, I wasn't fooling anyone.
- 7:02Speaker 3: Okay, did you have fake id's?
- 7:05Speaker 1: I don't remember. Okay, yeah, I.
- 7:07Speaker 3: Used to buy fake id's at the Mystic Mall and
- 7:09Speaker 3: Chelsea twenty.
- 7:11Speaker 1: Five buy them there.
- 7:12Speaker 3: Ye, not anymore, it's not there anymore, but there was
- 7:14Speaker 3: a little booth where you could buy fake id's twenty
- 7:17Speaker 3: five bucks.
- 7:18Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, summer jobs are awesome. You know why could
- 7:20Speaker 1: you never forget them? No?
- 7:22Speaker 3: You were really hard to Yeah, producer, I was telling
- 7:25Speaker 3: me about hers off all.
- 7:27Speaker 7: Well, I worked three summers at Canny Lake Park in
- 7:29Speaker 7: my hometown of Sown in Hampshire. We go this is
- 7:31Speaker 7: this is a really great summer job because I worked
- 7:33Speaker 7: operating rides. But my very first day there was fourth
- 7:37Speaker 7: of July and it was hot as heck and I
- 7:42Speaker 7: sweat through the shorts that I was wearing because they
- 7:45Speaker 7: were like a light khaki and it literally looks like
- 7:49Speaker 7: I pet my pants on my very first day. And
- 7:51Speaker 7: we had a red polo that was tucked into the shorts.
- 7:53Speaker 7: You couldn't wear it untucked, so there was no way
- 7:56Speaker 7: to hide the fact that I was sweating. Oh my where,
- 8:00Speaker 7: oh boy, like down my legs.
- 8:02Speaker 2: Every I'll never forget it.
- 8:04Speaker 7: No great job, but like that first day, I was like,
- 8:07Speaker 7: I can never come.
- 8:08Speaker 1: Back, so I need to ask.
- 8:10Speaker 4: So so, with no experience whatsoever, they would have you
- 8:14Speaker 4: operate a ride.
- 8:16Speaker 7: Well, there was a lot of training. Actually, I'm like
- 8:20Speaker 7: your job where you had no training.
- 8:22Speaker 1: No, if you saw this machine I was almost maimed,
- 8:26Speaker 1: you wouldn't. I never went back. I didn't even go
- 8:28Speaker 1: get my check.
- 8:30Speaker 4: I mean that's telling not to hey, I have nightmares
- 8:32Speaker 4: about it.
- 8:34Speaker 5: From the Planet Fitness Kiss one o eight Studios, we're
- 8:37Speaker 5: back with the Villy and Lisa in the morning.
- 8:40Speaker 4: My wife, Michelle, and I walked in the news last
- 8:42Speaker 4: night and there were kind of a couple of airline
- 8:45Speaker 4: news stories are to have a buzz, right, because you've
- 8:47Speaker 4: got the flight of seventeen Americans.
- 8:50Speaker 2: Flying to Nebraska.
- 8:51Speaker 4: From the cruise line that had the virus outbreak, the
- 8:55Speaker 4: rat virus outbreak. So that's an airline story, right. They
- 8:59Speaker 4: landed in Nebraska this morning and they're being quarantined now.
- 9:02Speaker 4: So there's one story.
- 9:04Speaker 1: And the other story that was in the news was
- 9:06Speaker 1: the guy that climbed the fence.
- 9:08Speaker 4: And was walking across the runway and got hit by
- 9:12Speaker 4: a passenger jet sucked up into the turbine. So now
- 9:18Speaker 4: we're thinking airlines, right. We're sitting there watching the news,
- 9:21Speaker 4: two airline related stories in a row, and my wife
- 9:24Speaker 4: turns to me and she says, hey, you know how
- 9:28Speaker 4: we always when we fly, we tend to get extra
- 9:32Speaker 4: leg room if it's available, and very often the extra
- 9:35Speaker 4: leg room puts us in the emergency row. Okay, And
- 9:40Speaker 4: I always fly next to the window. That's where I
- 9:43Speaker 4: like to be. I like to look down as we're
- 9:45Speaker 4: taking off, And so that means that I am the
- 9:49Speaker 4: immediate person connected to the emergency door. And it's a
- 9:54Speaker 4: big thing because before the plane takes off, the flight attendant,
- 9:59Speaker 4: it's their job. They have to come over and get
- 10:02Speaker 4: a verbal response from you. They'll say, just need to
- 10:05Speaker 4: ask you are you ready and willing to assist passengers
- 10:10Speaker 4: in the case.
- 10:11Speaker 1: Of an emergency? And of course you say yes, right,
- 10:15Speaker 1: And all of a sudden, what right? Because what Chelle said,
- 10:20Speaker 1: what does that mean? Like does that mean? I always
- 10:25Speaker 1: thought it was?
- 10:26Speaker 4: Am I ready to open the door in the case
- 10:29Speaker 4: of emergency? And then the inflatable slide goes out, right.
- 10:33Speaker 2: And then off you go.
- 10:34Speaker 8: But we're wondering, are they actually expecting me to help
- 10:42Speaker 8: passengers off the plane while it's on fire.
- 10:44Speaker 5: That's a good question because that seat generally you pay
- 10:47Speaker 5: for so right, right, and then they ask you for
- 10:50Speaker 5: money right.
- 10:51Speaker 2: So they ask you these questions like are you prepared
- 10:53Speaker 2: to do this?
- 10:54Speaker 5: And of course you say yes because you don't want
- 10:56Speaker 5: your seat to be moved.
- 10:57Speaker 1: But are they asking you if you're prepared to die?
- 11:00Speaker 3: I have an answer here if you like it.
- 11:02Speaker 2: What's the answer, bill?
- 11:03Speaker 1: Okay?
- 11:04Speaker 3: Passenger seated and emergency exit rows are acquired by federal
- 11:07Speaker 3: regulations to assist flight crews during an evacuation. By accepting
- 11:12Speaker 3: these seats, you agree to perform specific physical duties what
- 11:16Speaker 3: help guide other passengers to safety.
- 11:19Speaker 1: Now okay, hold on, now you need to picture this going.
- 11:23Speaker 4: We're in a row where I'm at the window, Michelle
- 11:26Speaker 4: is to my right, and there's another passenger to her right,
- 11:28Speaker 4: so there are three of us when and if I
- 11:31Speaker 4: open the door, which I'm perfectly willing to. Okay, but
- 11:35Speaker 4: that's it. We well, we're in the way of passengers desperate.
- 11:40Speaker 1: To get off the burning plane.
- 11:42Speaker 3: Right.
- 11:42Speaker 4: So it makes no sense to me because there's no
- 11:45Speaker 4: way on God's Earth that I've volunteered to remain on
- 11:50Speaker 4: the plane with the flames going for the entire fuselage.
- 11:55Speaker 1: That's not what I agreed to. First of all, I
- 11:58Speaker 1: paid extra.
- 11:59Speaker 4: So there's saying I'm paying extra to risk my life
- 12:03Speaker 4: for those I've never met in my whole life.
- 12:05Speaker 3: Basically, but Lisa, he did agree to do that. When
- 12:08Speaker 3: you say yes verbally, by the way.
- 12:10Speaker 4: I thought it meant open the door. Now I'm always
- 12:12Speaker 4: looking every time I get on board. I read the
- 12:15Speaker 4: thing against it, okay, and that lever needs to come
- 12:17Speaker 4: down and that one needs to come across.
- 12:18Speaker 1: So I know how to open the door.
- 12:21Speaker 4: But i want to tell everybody, Okay, if you happen
- 12:24Speaker 4: to be on board the flight with me and I'm
- 12:27Speaker 4: in the emergency row, yes, I'm very capable of opening
- 12:32Speaker 4: the door. I think I'll be one of the best
- 12:34Speaker 4: door openers ever. Right, I'm prepared to open the door,
- 12:39Speaker 4: but you need to know in advance. I'm the first
- 12:42Speaker 4: one off that plane. I might let my wife go first.
- 12:47Speaker 4: It depends on the moment.
- 12:48Speaker 2: Yeah, there's assisting for Bill.
- 12:50Speaker 3: Bill's going down the slide.
- 12:53Speaker 4: I'll probably grab Michelle's arm and we'll both slide down
- 12:57Speaker 4: together and then we're just run lives.
- 13:01Speaker 1: I'm never looking back.
- 13:02Speaker 5: Because Billy thinks that he's like getting out of your way,
- 13:05Speaker 5: so he's doing you a favor.
- 13:06Speaker 9: Well.
- 13:06Speaker 3: In Africa, he left his wife behind. There was an
- 13:08Speaker 3: animal possible animal attack that was about to happen in
- 13:11Speaker 3: the safari and he ran away and left.
- 13:14Speaker 2: Had a live show once.
- 13:15Speaker 5: I remember there were some cows that were charging the
- 13:17Speaker 5: live show like area.
- 13:21Speaker 2: You guys got out of there before all of our
- 13:24Speaker 2: listeners did.
- 13:24Speaker 4: The cows got spooked we're in a tent, started charging us, and.
- 13:31Speaker 1: I climbed over people like everybody, like children. I was
- 13:35Speaker 1: out out.
- 13:37Speaker 3: Oh god, Let's see what this fight attendant has to
- 13:39Speaker 3: say about this.
- 13:40Speaker 9: If you're seated in an emergency exit carry yer, you're
- 13:43Speaker 9: expected to help in case of an emergency and assist
- 13:46Speaker 9: in evacuation. That means listening carefully to the safety briefing.
- 13:51Speaker 9: When the flight attendant comes to you do.
- 13:53Speaker 3: That, Bill, You listen to the safety briefing.
- 13:55Speaker 1: I know it by heart.
- 13:56Speaker 3: Okay, good.
- 13:57Speaker 9: Second, listening to the demo can not emphasize this enough.
- 14:03Speaker 9: Listener to the demo, guys, please. And also, you have
- 14:06Speaker 9: to be physically and mentally capable to help and operate
- 14:10Speaker 9: the exit.
- 14:11Speaker 2: Well, I think the mental part is the issue.
- 14:13Speaker 5: Well, you're physically able, but you're not mentally prepared to
- 14:17Speaker 5: help anyone but yourself.
- 14:18Speaker 3: He meets the whole criteria.
- 14:20Speaker 4: Listen, I'm willing to keep my hand on the lever
- 14:23Speaker 4: for the entire flight.
- 14:25Speaker 1: Right the door, I got it. Come, that's gonna swing open.
- 14:29Speaker 2: You're going first.
- 14:30Speaker 1: You'll never see my ass again.
- 14:31Speaker 4: Right.
- 14:34Speaker 1: Think about how crazy this is.
- 14:37Speaker 4: We're in the way of everybody getting off the plane.
- 14:40Speaker 4: We're standing at the door.
- 14:42Speaker 3: But you're supposed to stand there and help the other things.
- 14:46Speaker 5: You're supposed to, Like if there's squeezing elderly woman, you're
- 14:50Speaker 5: supposed to hold her by the arm and get her
- 14:52Speaker 5: onto the slide.
- 14:53Speaker 1: Someone else can do that, Or a kid.
- 14:55Speaker 3: What if a little kid.
- 14:55Speaker 1: You paid extra money to be first? Off?
- 15:00Speaker 3: This is unbelievable.
- 15:02Speaker 2: Well, at least he's honest.
- 15:03Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, here's the requirements. Okay, you got to be
- 15:06Speaker 3: fifteen years old. Meet that criteria. Mobility you must have
- 15:10Speaker 3: full strength, dexterity, and mobility in both arms, hands, and legs.

- 15:27Speaker 3: without the assistance of another person. So you meet all
- 15:30Speaker 3: of these what.
- 15:31Speaker 1: How am I in a position to give instructions?
- 15:34Speaker 4: Like they never tell you what the instructions they do,
- 15:36Speaker 4: the saying to strangers, Hey, come on over here, No,
- 15:40Speaker 4: I'll help you.
- 15:41Speaker 3: Bill. It doesn't mean just letting people help people off
- 15:43Speaker 3: the plane. It means people that to get their masks,
- 15:46Speaker 3: you know the demo that they give.
- 15:48Speaker 10: That yes, this day, I don't know how that damn
- 15:51Speaker 10: mask is down. And I never pay attention to that
- 15:55Speaker 10: part I'm putting it on Like I always get confused
- 15:58Speaker 10: with the straps.
- 15:59Speaker 1: There's always a strapped to pull. I can do the
- 16:01Speaker 1: life jacket.
- 16:03Speaker 2: You can't.
- 16:03Speaker 1: Yeah, that's under the seat, right.
- 16:06Speaker 4: But again, I'm not standing in a burning plane and
- 16:11Speaker 4: helping three hundred people off before I get off.
- 16:15Speaker 1: And I paid more than anyone else.
- 16:18Speaker 4: I'm paying extra for the right to want burn to
- 16:21Speaker 4: help people.
- 16:23Speaker 3: You got to help people.
- 16:25Speaker 2: Boy, this is not for you, Bill.
- 16:27Speaker 1: No, my wife had to post a question. I've been
- 16:29Speaker 1: perplexed ever since.
- 16:31Speaker 3: I know he brought up this morning. He was like,
- 16:32Speaker 3: I can't step thinking about this wedding.
- 16:34Speaker 1: I'm so concerned about it. I can't I have to
- 16:36Speaker 1: fly to the azeors this week.
- 16:38Speaker 2: Are you sitting in.
- 16:38Speaker 4: That row.
- 16:41Speaker 1: Emergency?
- 16:42Speaker 3: You better hope there's not a real emergency.
- 16:44Speaker 4: I know is if there's a real emergency, I hope
- 16:47Speaker 4: I don't see Billy Costa anywhere near me because I
- 16:49Speaker 4: know I'm going down.
- 16:52Speaker 5: From the Planet Fitness Kiss one O eight Studios.

- 17:30Speaker 4: Lisa that on the Billion Lisa Morning Show, it's about
- 17:33Speaker 4: the music.
- 17:33Speaker 1: I mean, it's really always been about the music.
- 17:36Speaker 4: I think Madonna had a quote that said just that
- 17:39Speaker 4: the Billion Lisa Morning Show. It's about the music. It's
- 17:43Speaker 4: always about the music. Okay, thank you, Bill and Justin
- 17:46Speaker 4: does his new music segment. We're always talking about songs,
- 17:49Speaker 4: breaking down songs, talking about the lyrics, and also.
- 17:52Speaker 5: Like behind the scenes here, like when we're in songs,
- 17:56Speaker 5: we sometimes sit here and like sing and dance to
- 17:59Speaker 5: like whatever we're playing.
- 18:00Speaker 4: Yeah, like a line like what good is booty if
- 18:04Speaker 4: the booty can't.
- 18:05Speaker 1: Find the beat? I think that got us really talking
- 18:08Speaker 1: about lyrics.
- 18:08Speaker 2: And last.
- 18:13Speaker 3: I've said that to my wife about a million times she's.
- 18:18Speaker 8: Walking by in the living roof.
- 18:26Speaker 4: The bottom line is with music, there are always the lines,
- 18:30Speaker 4: one singular lyric that sticks with you, like.
- 18:33Speaker 1: For instance, back that ass up. You know what I mean?
- 18:36Speaker 1: It never goes away. It's a classic.
- 18:38Speaker 3: That's Bills. That's a Bill thing. Just like saying.
- 18:41Speaker 4: That that lyric No no, because it's just one of those.
- 18:46Speaker 1: I remember we were at a company party.
- 18:48Speaker 5: Or something, one of our Christmas parties or kiss concert
- 18:51Speaker 5: preparty and.
- 18:52Speaker 1: They can't DJ came on with the song back that.
- 18:56Speaker 4: I don't even know if the song was called that,
- 18:57Speaker 4: it's called it is, Yeah, And Lisa and Matt Segal's
- 19:01Speaker 4: wife Mary Anne.
- 19:02Speaker 1: We're backing that ass up on the dance floor. I'll
- 19:04Speaker 1: never forget that moment.
- 19:06Speaker 3: I missed that party.
- 19:12Speaker 1: I remember like it was yesterday.
- 19:15Speaker 3: That songwriting right there. Well, a lot of people wonder
- 19:17Speaker 3: I get asked this question a lot is with the
- 19:19Speaker 3: music right working working at a radio station, do you
- 19:22Speaker 3: listen to the music when it's on? Do we listen
- 19:24Speaker 3: to the music? The answer is yeah, unless we're talking
- 19:27Speaker 3: and you know, discussing the show. Yeah, the music is on, Yeah,
- 19:30Speaker 3: we can hear it. And that's kind of how we
- 19:32Speaker 3: discovered the Booty find the beat for Bruno Mons. Yeah
- 19:35Speaker 3: like that. Now I have something that's gonna blow your mind.
- 19:38Speaker 3: Oh boy, talking about song lyrics. Okay, so you know
- 19:41Speaker 3: the on the Monster, Eminem and Rihanna, Yes, in the
- 19:45Speaker 3: in the chorus, there's a part. I'm gonna play it
- 19:48Speaker 3: for you right here. I'm gonna let me play it first,
- 19:50Speaker 3: and I'm gonna ask all three of you what you
- 19:52Speaker 3: think Rihanna is saying on this part of The Monster,
- 19:55Speaker 3: You're ready and you think I'm crazy.
- 20:06Speaker 2: Well that's not fair.
- 20:07Speaker 1: Well that's not fair.
- 20:09Speaker 7: Producer Riley Yep, I agree, that's not fair.
- 20:11Speaker 3: That is incorrect. What she's not saying it saying. She's
- 20:17Speaker 3: saying it's nothing new. What I'll explain, BB Rexa wrote
- 20:22Speaker 3: that song for Rihanna, and BB actually explained everybody says
- 20:25Speaker 3: it wrong. She's not saying that.
- 20:27Speaker 11: You think I'm crazy, Well, that's nothing new, and everybody
- 20:30Speaker 11: always thinks, well, that's not fair. It's not that's nothing
- 20:34Speaker 11: new because it's like, well that's nothing.
- 20:38Speaker 3: Well that's nothing new, right, listen to it again, Oh.
- 20:48Speaker 1: That's nothing then?
- 20:49Speaker 2: Yeah, come on, come on man, do you hear it?
- 20:53Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 20:54Speaker 3: I thought it was the same until I heard that.
- 20:57Speaker 3: That's a mister.
- 20:58Speaker 4: She's kind of saying, you ain't seen nothing yet. If
- 21:01Speaker 4: you think I'm crazy, that's nothing right and new?
- 21:07Speaker 3: Isn't that what she's using me?
- 21:09Speaker 11: Bill, I'm well, that's nothing new, and everybody always thinks,
- 21:13Speaker 11: well that's not fair.
- 21:14Speaker 2: It's not that's nothing new because it's like, well that's nothing.
- 21:21Speaker 1: Who was that talking?
- 21:22Speaker 3: There was Rexa who wrote the song.
- 21:25Speaker 1: That was nice the way she explained it.
- 21:26Speaker 3: I like that. Yeah, that's a misheard lyric, which is
- 21:29Speaker 3: kind of a separate topic, but still it's Those are
- 21:32Speaker 3: iconic lyrics. Another one is the Lady Gaga for what's
- 21:36Speaker 3: the name of the song? Oh god, just dance at
- 21:39Speaker 3: the beginning, like, what is she saying here?
- 21:45Speaker 2: She's saying red wine, red Wine?
- 21:47Speaker 6: Right, but she's not High Morning crew. This is Liz
- 21:49Speaker 6: from Andover. I'm just calling to let you know that
- 21:52Speaker 6: Red One on Lady Gaga's song was actually the first
- 21:57Speaker 6: producer to pick up her music. He is a Swedish
- 22:02Speaker 6: Moroccan music producer and he had a label named Red One.
- 22:07Speaker 6: So that's why she said that.
- 22:09Speaker 3: At the beginning of it, she.
- 22:10Speaker 2: Shouts him out, red One.
- 22:12Speaker 3: I thought it was red Wine.
- 22:15Speaker 2: Yeah, it's Red One.
- 22:17Speaker 1: Okay, we know we're taking you behind the music. Yeah.
- 22:20Speaker 3: Another one, which we've covered on this show is the
- 22:22Speaker 3: ludicrous line in the song. Yeah, Billy loves this one. Now,
- 22:31Speaker 3: that is songwriting.
- 22:32Speaker 1: Right.
- 22:33Speaker 5: One day, we were listening in our headphones and I go.
- 22:40Speaker 3: Yeah, the same thing as the Bruno Mars. We were
- 22:43Speaker 3: just sitting here and it was playing.
- 22:45Speaker 1: And yeah, what good is booty boy? Can't find the beat?
- 22:50Speaker 3: Yeah exactly.
- 22:52Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a good one in home Wrecker, the new
- 22:54Speaker 5: somber song we're playing and it starts out you hit
- 22:56Speaker 5: me like a drunk cigarette to.
- 22:59Speaker 1: The opening line, Yeah it is, yeah, and then there's
- 23:02Speaker 1: talk dirty to me.
- 23:03Speaker 3: Uh huh, Well we'll cover that when Darula comes in.
- 23:06Speaker 3: Here's another whole story.
- 23:09Speaker 4: You know, every so often we hit on a story
- 23:12Speaker 4: and it comes out of nowhere and it becomes epic.
- 23:16Speaker 4: I don't know what got us started. I think my
- 23:18Speaker 4: wife Michelle turned to me the other night she says, hey,
- 23:21Speaker 4: you know how we always book extra legroom on a flight,
- 23:26Speaker 4: and typically not always, but most of the time. If
- 23:29Speaker 4: you get your extra leg room, a lot of time,
- 23:32Speaker 4: it's the emergency row.
- 23:34Speaker 2: It's the exit row.
- 23:35Speaker 1: Yeah, And.
- 23:38Speaker 4: Just before takeoff, a flight attendant will come over, okay
- 23:42Speaker 4: because there are emergency seats on the left and emergency
- 23:44Speaker 4: seats on the right, and she'll check with all six
- 23:47Speaker 4: people and you need to answer verbally. She'll say, are
- 23:51Speaker 4: you ready, willing and able to assist people in the
- 23:55Speaker 4: case of an emergency.
- 23:56Speaker 2: That's required by the FAA. Mean, it's like, yeah, they
- 23:59Speaker 2: have to.
- 23:59Speaker 1: And all you do is sure.
- 24:03Speaker 3: You can't nod your head. You have to verbally say yes.
- 24:06Speaker 1: You need to verbally answer me.
- 24:07Speaker 4: So it got us to thinking, like, what exactly did
- 24:11Speaker 4: we sign up for every single time we fly because
- 24:15Speaker 4: what does that mean? And I've always assumed that I'm
- 24:18Speaker 4: not even kidding. They just wanted me to open the
- 24:22Speaker 4: door if there's an emergency. So I've always focused on
- 24:24Speaker 4: the door. But something hit me when I got home
- 24:27Speaker 4: last night. You're putting hundreds of people's lives in your
- 24:32Speaker 4: hand if you're sitting at the door as I always do. Right,
- 24:38Speaker 4: shouldn't she at least demonstrate the door opening because there
- 24:43Speaker 4: are a lot of latches and leaving.
- 24:45Speaker 2: I agree with you.
- 24:46Speaker 5: I don't think anyone sitting in this studio right now
- 24:48Speaker 5: would know how to open up the airplane door.
- 24:51Speaker 3: I think it says it on the latch regardless.
- 24:54Speaker 5: I know, but during an emergency, are you really going
- 24:56Speaker 5: to be able to read the instructions?
- 24:59Speaker 4: It's true, instantly in panic mode, you're gonna grab the
- 25:02Speaker 4: wrong latch or end up locking the door for life.
- 25:05Speaker 2: Well what if there's smoke in the cockpit? Like, what
- 25:07Speaker 2: if you can't see it?
- 25:07Speaker 3: I don't know the fuselage, Bill says, right, I just
- 25:12Speaker 3: we talked about this yesterday. Billy was ranting about it,
- 25:14Speaker 3: saying he would save nobody. Maybe his wife, is what
- 25:17Speaker 3: he said. Maybe his wife in case of an emergency,
- 25:20Speaker 3: but our listeners pointed out that a very similar thing
- 25:24Speaker 3: happened in an episode of Curb Your Enthusiastic Yes, Ah,
- 25:28Speaker 3: Larry David. Yes, So basically, Billy is Larry David.
- 25:31Speaker 1: I can't really siting by the emergency. Don't exit. I
- 25:34Speaker 1: think you better get someone else.
- 25:35Speaker 2: Okay, so we're about three minutes away from wheels up,
- 25:37Speaker 2: so you need to just stay put.
- 25:40Speaker 1: Understand, I can't be sitting here. If something happens, I can't.
- 25:42Speaker 1: We won't be able to get out.
- 25:43Speaker 2: Calm down, Okay, I cannot do it.
- 25:45Speaker 1: I will pat it, we will go down.
- 25:47Speaker 7: All we need to know is that you're willing to
- 25:49Speaker 7: assist passengers in the event of a non traditional landing.
- 25:51Speaker 4: I cannot be of any help whatsoever in any kind
- 25:54Speaker 4: of non traditional landing or any traditional landing.
- 25:57Speaker 2: Did you read the brocher?
- 25:59Speaker 1: I can't read that, buchore. It's Chinese. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- 26:04Speaker 1: It's just an expression, but I don't know you you
- 26:06Speaker 1: look maybe, I'm.
- 26:07Speaker 2: Sure is it the seat? Are you just scared to
- 26:09Speaker 2: find I.
- 26:10Speaker 4: Choke under pressure in any kind of game basketball, if
- 26:13Speaker 4: I was on the foul line.
- 26:14Speaker 1: And towards like the last five minutes of the game.
- 26:16Speaker 1: I would miss the entire rim.
- 26:17Speaker 11: I coudn't even hit the rim because I was choking, choking.
- 26:21Speaker 2: Sir, how did I get you a drink?
- 26:22Speaker 3: Would like them along? So basically, Billy, you're Larry David.
- 26:25Speaker 4: Yeah, basically I'm glad you played that because she says
- 26:29Speaker 4: a non traditional landing. Now, think about the level of
- 26:33Speaker 4: panic that's everybody on the plane goes into just by
- 26:36Speaker 4: getting up to get your overhead when the plane stops
- 26:39Speaker 4: at the hangar, right, Imagine if they come on and
- 26:42Speaker 4: they announce, excuse me, brace for impact, we're gonna have
- 26:46Speaker 4: a non traditional landing. What level of panic do you
- 26:50Speaker 4: think is going to get into that plane? And now
- 26:52Speaker 4: you're opening the door and everybody's depending on you. I'm
- 26:56Speaker 4: gonna I'm afraid I'm gonna jam the door now like
- 26:59Speaker 4: nobody gets out.
- 27:00Speaker 3: It is funny, And all Billy wants is extra legrom Yeah,
- 27:04Speaker 3: that's all he wants.
- 27:05Speaker 2: And don't you pay extra for it?
- 27:07Speaker 1: You certainly do.
- 27:08Speaker 5: Then do you have this next level of responsibility that
- 27:11Speaker 5: I don't think anyone really wants?
- 27:13Speaker 3: No, No, dude, you're Larry.
- 27:16Speaker 4: I am the immediate person connected to the emergency door.
- 27:21Speaker 4: Are they actually expecting me to help passengers off the
- 27:27Speaker 4: plane while it's on fire.
- 27:29Speaker 1: There's no way on God's Earth that.
- 27:32Speaker 4: I've volunteered to remain on the plane with the flames
- 27:37Speaker 4: going through the entire fuselage.
- 27:39Speaker 8: I want to tell everybody I'm very capable of opening
- 27:43Speaker 8: the door.
- 27:43Speaker 4: I think I'll be one of the best door openers ever.
- 27:47Speaker 1: But you need to know in advance. I'm the first one.
- 27:51Speaker 4: Off that plane, and I might let my wife go
- 27:53Speaker 4: fre You'll never see my ass again.
- 27:58Speaker 1: I'm paying extra for the right to burn.
- 28:03Speaker 5: You're on that slide first thing, like you're getting out
- 28:06Speaker 5: out of everyone else off.
- 28:08Speaker 1: Like a blur.
- 28:09Speaker 4: I actually said to Michelle last night, I said, Honey,
- 28:12Speaker 4: I actually think i'd let you go first.
- 28:16Speaker 2: Oh that's nice.
- 28:17Speaker 4: Yeah, but you don't know until the moment comes. It's true,
- 28:21Speaker 4: that's when you will meet the real.
- 28:23Speaker 2: Self, Yes, the panic self.
- 28:25Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't know. You see how people get crazy.
- 28:29Speaker 4: Think about how crazy people get just at the gate,
- 28:32Speaker 4: before you even get down the ramp to the plane, right,
- 28:34Speaker 4: they're all standing right there at the flight attendant, and
- 28:37Speaker 4: yet it's not their time to go.
- 28:39Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 28:39Speaker 5: I just still don't understand why they're asking passengers to
- 28:43Speaker 5: take on this level of responsibility.
- 28:45Speaker 3: It's a big deal, it really is. I'm kind of
- 28:47Speaker 3: with Bill here, you.
- 28:48Speaker 1: Know, it's a stupid system.
- 28:50Speaker 3: Well, if God forbid something happens, you're right, the panic's
- 28:53Speaker 3: going to set in and then all that responsibility is
- 28:55Speaker 3: just on you.
- 28:56Speaker 4: Well, look, emergency happens, there's plenty a room for the
- 29:00Speaker 4: flight attendant to come down and open the door, although
- 29:04Speaker 4: everybody's going to be up and killing each other the
- 29:06Speaker 4: minute they cite an emergency, killing each other.
- 29:10Speaker 5: Well, there are three areas that you can't sit there
- 29:12Speaker 5: if you're under fifteen, or responsible for someone under fifteen,
- 29:15Speaker 5: not meeting the mobility requirements necessary, or you're not unable
- 29:19Speaker 5: to read, speak or understand English well enough to follow
- 29:22Speaker 5: the instructions.
- 29:24Speaker 3: Oh you meet all those requirements, Bill, Yes you do.
- 29:26Speaker 12: Hey, it's Sarah from Maine and listening to Billy talk
- 29:29Speaker 12: about not wanting to help people if something happens to
- 29:33Speaker 12: the plane reminds me of the episode of Seinfeld where
- 29:37Speaker 12: George is at this kid's birthday party and there's smoke,
- 29:41Speaker 12: we start feeling fire fire, and he pushes everyone out
- 29:45Speaker 12: of the way as he runs out of the party
- 29:47Speaker 12: ahead of all the women and children.
- 29:50Speaker 2: You need to.
- 29:50Speaker 12: Play that clip because that is Billy. Billy is George Castanza.
- 29:56Speaker 3: Well, Larry David is George Costanza. Yeah, that's based on
- 30:00Speaker 3: Larry David's very similar. But I remember that episode.
- 30:03Speaker 1: It was an inn.
- 30:11Speaker 3: You've never seen the You've never seen the episode. George
- 30:14Speaker 3: is pushing after all the kids out of the way.
- 30:16Speaker 3: That's you, Bill.
- 30:17Speaker 4: Ye.
- 30:17Speaker 1: No, I'm just saying I don't need that response.
- 30:21Speaker 4: They need to explain it more. What they're expecting of you. Again,
- 30:25Speaker 4: I always thought, sure, I'll open the door, whatever.
- 30:27Speaker 1: Go away.
- 30:29Speaker 5: I think that's what everyone says. They just want to
- 30:31Speaker 5: be left alone.
- 30:32Speaker 4: But now the flight attendant is putting a lot on
- 30:35Speaker 4: your plate.
- 30:35Speaker 3: Yes, well, if anyone has an answer to this, we'd
- 30:37Speaker 3: love to hear it. Yeah, you can give us a
- 30:39Speaker 3: call right now eight seven seven six one seven one
- 30:41Speaker 3: one eight. That's eight seven seven six one seven one
- 30:45Speaker 3: one eight. Or you can leave a talk back and
- 30:48Speaker 3: tell us are you like Bill or would you be
- 30:50Speaker 3: a hero?
- 30:51Speaker 1: I'm not escorting people. We know that's well, it's gone.
- 30:54Speaker 3: We know.
- 30:54Speaker 11: I don't care if you are ninety five years old.
- 30:58Speaker 12: I am out of here.
- 30:59Speaker 11: I'm over the top, like, yeah, yes, ma'am, I am
- 31:05Speaker 11: more than capable.

- 31:34Speaker 4: the extra leg room, you end up in the emergency
- 31:36Speaker 4: row flight attendant comes up says are you okay physically
- 31:39Speaker 4: able to open the door or assist passengers.
- 31:43Speaker 1: In the case of emergency?
- 31:44Speaker 4: And I'm always in the emergency role, sitting at that door,
- 31:48Speaker 4: and I just don't know what they're really asking of me.
- 31:52Speaker 4: So we've got Dana on the phone and she's a
- 31:54Speaker 4: flight attendant.
- 31:55Speaker 1: Good morning, Dana, good morning, How are you good?
- 31:59Speaker 4: So what are our responsibilities when you come over?
- 32:03Speaker 1: And we have to verbally say yes, I got this.
- 32:07Speaker 13: Okay, So we're basically asking you, are you willing and
- 32:11Speaker 13: able to open that door and assist passengers? Out in
- 32:15Speaker 13: case of an emergency. Here's the safety briefing card for
- 32:19Speaker 13: further instruction.
- 32:20Speaker 4: Okay, hold on, Dana, assist passengers. How you mean I
- 32:26Speaker 4: paid extra for the extra leg room and I'm last
- 32:30Speaker 4: one off the ship.
- 32:33Speaker 13: You're not the last one. But you need to open
- 32:35Speaker 13: that door and start the evacuation. Okay, you need to
- 32:39Speaker 13: open it. There's not enough picture. Two hundred people on
- 32:42Speaker 13: the airplane and there's four flight attempts. We need your
- 32:47Speaker 13: help data.
- 32:50Speaker 2: How easy is it to open up the door?
- 32:53Speaker 13: If you read the right, there we go.
- 32:55Speaker 4: I told you, I told you, thank you.
- 32:59Speaker 1: Yeah, But in a moment, it's a panic.
- 33:00Speaker 4: You're not reading the car like it's First of all,
- 33:06Speaker 4: we got three people sitting in that row right. Hypothetically,
- 33:10Speaker 4: I'm at the door on the window seat. If if
- 33:15Speaker 4: I open the door, we're in the way. How are
- 33:17Speaker 4: we assisting people? They can't get through my aisle.
- 33:22Speaker 13: Technically you're throwing the door open, and as the passengers
- 33:26Speaker 13: come down the aisle, you're gently helping them out the door.
- 33:29Speaker 13: We have a thing in the airline industry. Got my bag,
- 33:33Speaker 13: got my purse, get out of my way. I'm going first,
- 33:36Speaker 13: and I know that would be you billy.
- 33:38Speaker 4: I okay, okay, I am at that door the minute
- 33:42Speaker 4: it cracks open.
- 33:44Speaker 1: But what you're telling me is I'm spending extra money.
- 33:48Speaker 3: Stuck on the money thing.
- 33:49Speaker 1: Well to be the last one to survive.
- 33:53Speaker 13: We don't have to be the last one. But what
- 33:55Speaker 13: I've always found interesting, and you know we've brought this
- 33:58Speaker 13: up before and safety training, when you're sitting in the
- 34:00Speaker 13: exit row, you get pre cocktails, so the people that
- 34:04Speaker 13: are drink on the plane, well, extra legroom on the
- 34:09Speaker 13: airline I work for means you get free cocktails. So
- 34:12Speaker 13: basically we're feeding your alcohol and we're saying make sure
- 34:16Speaker 13: you help with the responsibility.
- 34:20Speaker 1: What that airline do you work for?
- 34:22Speaker 4: You'll be drunk because no one's ever offered me a drink.
- 34:26Speaker 4: By the way, I get free on Jet Blue.
- 34:28Speaker 2: I agree that you've never been something.
- 34:30Speaker 5: If we've ever purchased that ticket, you've never been offered
- 34:33Speaker 5: like if you're asking, it's so funny.
- 34:34Speaker 1: So now you're drunk trying to open the door.
- 34:37Speaker 2: Exactly, That's what Dana is saying. It doesn't make any sense.
- 34:40Speaker 3: At least you you'll go drunk, you just fall out.
- 34:42Speaker 5: But if they're like if they're like, having you work
- 34:45Speaker 5: for the airline, wouldn't this seat be less money?
- 34:47Speaker 1: Like right now, I'm a first responder, Like Dana, still there.
- 34:54Speaker 13: That there are other seats on the airplane that are
- 34:56Speaker 13: not next to the window, you know, like on Jet Blue,
- 34:59Speaker 13: they're like the first four or five rows. Yeah, a
- 35:01Speaker 13: really nice leg room. That's not my airline, but you
- 35:04Speaker 13: do not have to sit next to you they exit.
- 35:06Speaker 13: The problem is these people, when the plane is going down,
- 35:11Speaker 13: are going to be so concerned about their bags and
- 35:14Speaker 13: personal items that when they get up, no one's getting
- 35:17Speaker 13: off the plane. Japan Airline, I think it was a
- 35:20Speaker 13: couple years ago, evacuated an airplane with like two hundred
- 35:24Speaker 13: and fifty people in ninety seconds. Okay, these people listen,
- 35:29Speaker 13: they know the planes on fire. The stupid Americans are
- 35:32Speaker 13: going to be grabbing their bag, getting their kids. Make
- 35:36Speaker 13: sure they have the air pop.
- 35:37Speaker 1: Yeah, first of all, leave the bags.
- 35:39Speaker 4: Okay, the plane is on fire, you leave the bags.
- 35:43Speaker 1: Just get off the plane. Dana, I gotta tell you, Oh.
- 35:48Speaker 4: By the way, you mentioned those first three or four
- 35:50Speaker 4: rows on Jet Blue. Do yourself a favor. Don't take
- 35:54Speaker 4: the first row. You think you're doing yourself a favor.
- 35:56Speaker 4: There's no leg room in the first row, and you
- 35:59Speaker 4: don't have a place to put your carry on.
- 36:01Speaker 2: Dane, I have one more question for you.
- 36:03Speaker 5: How often do you have to move someone's seat if
- 36:06Speaker 5: they're in the exit row and they decline the opportunity
- 36:10Speaker 5: to help other people?
- 36:13Speaker 13: You know, normally they shake their head. But you're right,
- 36:16Speaker 13: we do need a verbal yes, we need a verbal yes.
- 36:20Speaker 13: But I've had people in the exit row who are
- 36:22Speaker 13: under fifteen years old. You know, sometimes the agents make mistakes.
- 36:25Speaker 13: Absolutely not. We cannot have some ten year old sitting there.
- 36:29Speaker 1: True.
- 36:29Speaker 13: You can't have a person with you can't have a
- 36:31Speaker 13: person with a cane or you know, crutches, which has
- 36:35Speaker 13: happened before too. I said, we cannot sit you here.
- 36:38Speaker 13: I am so sorry, but we're going to find you
- 36:40Speaker 13: another seat. It has to be someone. I'll be honest.
- 36:43Speaker 13: When I'm doing the safety demo and putting my oxygen
- 36:46Speaker 13: mask on and showing you the safety card, I am
- 36:49Speaker 13: looking around trying to find the biggest guys on the
- 36:52Speaker 13: airplane that are going to help me when we are
- 36:55Speaker 13: going down in a ball of slaves. Because at the
- 36:58Speaker 13: end of the day, people we act differently during emergencies,
- 37:02Speaker 13: they do.
- 37:03Speaker 1: They act differently. Go they act differently.
- 37:06Speaker 4: When the plane pulls up to the terminal, everybody's up.
- 37:10Speaker 4: They're killing each other to get their bag. So, but
- 37:14Speaker 4: let me ask you something. What do you think the
- 37:16Speaker 4: percentage of people that say, yes, I can handle this
- 37:20Speaker 4: in the emergency row. I'm telling you the strong percentage
- 37:24Speaker 4: they're out that door the minuted cracks open?
- 37:27Speaker 13: Oh absolutely. Do you remember the flight in Denver where
- 37:30Speaker 13: they were all standing on the wing? You know, you
- 37:33Speaker 13: see all these people standing on the wing. They just
- 37:35Speaker 13: want to get out. You really have to think about it.
- 37:37Speaker 13: The plane's on fire. You don't want to go stand
- 37:39Speaker 13: on the wing. You want to go out the door
- 37:42Speaker 13: that has the best area for safety. Dan, Yeah, people
- 37:46Speaker 13: are crazy.
- 37:47Speaker 1: Are you able to tell us where they are? Line
- 37:48Speaker 1: you're working? Because I'm totally into the free time.
- 37:52Speaker 13: No, but I have been flying for twenty five years.
- 37:55Speaker 13: I'm very worst in all this. I would say about
- 37:58Speaker 13: half the people that sit there are not qualified. You
- 38:01Speaker 13: look at them. There is no way that eighty two
- 38:03Speaker 13: year old woman is opening the exit door and helping
- 38:07Speaker 13: all these people out. So you just hope for the best.
- 38:10Speaker 4: But there's a little irony there that you're deputizing people
- 38:14Speaker 4: to be responsible for hundreds of lives on the plane
- 38:19Speaker 4: while you're.
- 38:19Speaker 1: Serving free drinks.
- 38:22Speaker 3: Development, that's development.
- 38:25Speaker 14: YEA hold that pulled up. First of all, now you're saying, one,
- 38:29Speaker 14: you want me to be the last off the plane,
- 38:31Speaker 14: the first person with the responsibility to getting everyone off there.
- 38:36Speaker 14: Second of all, you're telling me you're gonna be feeding
- 38:38Speaker 14: me cocktails the whole time.
- 38:39Speaker 1: So I'm supposed to be cocked in to open this door. Yeah,
- 38:44Speaker 1: you already know.
- 38:45Speaker 14: I'm smashing the window and I'm flatting myself out.
- 38:48Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna start working harder the gym
