0:05
Speaker 1: Carrol Morning Show.
0:08
Speaker 2: Friday morning, nineteenth day of a September. I'm Wes. Thanks
0:14
Speaker 2: for joining me. We roll on into a weekend. I
0:18
Speaker 2: think we need a weekend. I need a weekend. Don't
0:21
Speaker 2: we need a weekend? I mean, I know we all
0:24
Speaker 2: need a weekend, and not everybody even gets the weekend off. Sorry,
0:29
Speaker 2: I get that, but those of us working on this
0:32
Speaker 2: Monday through Friday thing, I'm ready for a weekend. I'm
0:36
Speaker 2: just ready to just take a break from some of
0:39
Speaker 2: the heaviness that's been the news. It's been a lot, man,
0:43
Speaker 2: and I know you're there with me. You've been dealing
0:45
Speaker 2: with it. You've been listening to me yack on and
0:46
Speaker 2: on about it. So maybe you just need a break
0:48
Speaker 2: from hearing me talk about it. I don't know. I
0:50
Speaker 2: don't know where we're at. On one side of that,
0:53
Speaker 2: I would like to thank all of you who in
0:56
Speaker 2: the last days since the assassination of Charlie Kirk, we
1:02
Speaker 2: were all dealing with that in different ways, and many
1:06
Speaker 2: of you reached out to me after I laid down
1:10
Speaker 2: some thoughts on the show, and I appreciated hearing from you,
1:13
Speaker 2: some of you just checking on me, some of you
1:16
Speaker 2: offering some things to go along with it. I really
1:20
Speaker 2: appreciate that very much. And you checking on me. I
1:23
Speaker 2: had friends that were just like some's off you, all right,
1:28
Speaker 2: and I appreciate that too. I just we've all been
1:32
Speaker 2: dealing with it. I haven't really done a good enough
1:34
Speaker 2: job I think of checking on others through all of this.
1:37
Speaker 2: It's it's been a challenge for me each day to
1:41
Speaker 2: think of things to talk about with it, because there's
1:44
Speaker 2: a lot more that I'd like to say. But I'm
1:46
Speaker 2: trying to I'm trying to be a good person, trying
1:50
Speaker 2: hard to be a good person. I know that. Maybe
1:53
Speaker 2: I don't know. I think I swore for the for
1:56
Speaker 2: the first time on this show this week. That was
1:59
Speaker 2: a first. I mean I've sworn on other shows, I've
2:02
Speaker 2: never done it on this one. So and I didn't
2:06
Speaker 2: take it out. I left it and I'm leaving it.
2:09
Speaker 2: So apologies if you were listening with the kids and
2:12
Speaker 2: that was the first time they heard me swear. I
2:14
Speaker 2: it just it was a natural thing. Sometimes it's a
2:17
Speaker 2: natural thing. Sometimes it just comes out. And I married
2:22
Speaker 2: someone from a country where swearing is just part of
2:25
Speaker 2: the language. They don't have that whole thing where you know,
2:28
Speaker 2: you go back to colonial days here and people go,
2:31
Speaker 2: oh shit, not say that word that means the same
2:35
Speaker 2: as this other word I'm going to say instead. So
2:38
Speaker 2: it's it's I'm not I'm not prudish about it. I
2:43
Speaker 2: think in the right context it can be done. And
2:46
Speaker 2: I did it this week, and I'm not. I mean
2:50
Speaker 2: if I if I said it and it was played
2:53
Speaker 2: in front of kids or something in the un oh
2:55
Speaker 2: my gosh, I'm sorry. It don't don't expect that to
2:57
Speaker 2: be a regular currents. I was just really worked up
3:01
Speaker 2: and it came out, and it came out naturally for me,
3:03
Speaker 2: as it does sometimes and it probably does for you.
3:06
Speaker 2: It's just called language. It's just what we do. We
3:09
Speaker 2: just speak with our kids. We never raised our kids
3:12
Speaker 2: to say these are bad words. We raise our kids
3:15
Speaker 2: to say, these are grown up words. Now, there are
3:18
Speaker 2: some words that are off the table. I don't say,
3:21
Speaker 2: they don't say and that's understood, right, that's just but
3:27
Speaker 2: you know, the particular word I use this week, if
3:32
Speaker 2: my kids say it at this point at thirteen and sixteen,
3:36
Speaker 2: if they're using it in the right context and the
3:38
Speaker 2: right circumstance. I ain't having a fit about it. I
3:41
Speaker 2: got to raise them to be adults and to make decisions,
3:44
Speaker 2: and part of that is that now I'm not going
3:46
Speaker 2: to take disrespect. But if they had done it the
3:49
Speaker 2: way that I did it this week, is what I'm
3:51
Speaker 2: telling you, I wouldn't have had a problem with it.
3:53
Speaker 2: That's all I'm getting at. So apologies, if it was
3:56
Speaker 2: in a situation that was awkward for you, if you
3:59
Speaker 2: were sitting in church in the lobby and listening to
4:01
Speaker 2: it and it came out, I'm sorry. It was around
4:04
Speaker 2: your grandmother and she heard it, I'm sorry. Although I
4:06
Speaker 2: suspect your grandmother's probably heard that word before, just a hunch.
4:11
Speaker 2: I'm not saying anything about your grandmother. I'm just saying
4:14
Speaker 2: most people are familiar with that word. They've heard it
4:18
Speaker 2: at some point. You know, you watch a Chevy Chase
4:21
Speaker 2: movie at some point, they've probably heard that word. That's
4:24
Speaker 2: all I'm getting at. So it's just been that kind
4:27
Speaker 2: of week. So I appreciate those of you checking on me,
4:30
Speaker 2: even if you were just checking on me because of
4:31
Speaker 2: that word. It's just one time. It was just one time.
4:37
Speaker 2: It's not going to be a habit. All right, it's Friday.
4:39
Speaker 2: Let's get into some start with some positive news. I
4:44
Speaker 2: like to do that. We got kind of a Doogie
4:45
Speaker 2: Houser story here. Nine year old kid Aiden Wilkins is
4:51
Speaker 2: the youngest student ever at Ursinus College in Pennsylvania. He
4:57
Speaker 2: is studying neuroscience along student Yes at least twice his age.
5:02
Speaker 2: His goal is to become a pediatric neurosurgeon and help
5:05
Speaker 2: kids through some scary medical conditions. He has had an
5:10
Speaker 2: unusual childhood himself, explaining I could just read when most
5:14
Speaker 2: kids my age that were like two could barely speak.
5:17
Speaker 2: His mother Veronica, adding he was reading signs and corrected
5:20
Speaker 2: people's sentences writing algebraic equations. Didn't take long for Aiden
5:25
Speaker 2: to figure out that he was interested in medicine, and
5:28
Speaker 2: he had the support of his family early on, mainly
5:30
Speaker 2: because he said, I always like helping people around my age.
5:34
Speaker 2: I was always fascinated by the anatomy of the brain.
5:38
Speaker 2: It's sad to see kids around my age with neurodisability,
5:41
Speaker 2: so I want to help them out. What a good kid.
5:43
Speaker 2: It's a real life Doogie Howser, except this kid is,
5:47
Speaker 2: you know, specifically helping helping kids with their brains, and
5:53
Speaker 2: it's good. Maybe he can figure out all the stuff
5:56
Speaker 2: that was going on with my spine. Maybe maybe someday,
6:00
Speaker 2: I mean I think it's worked out. I'm not, you know,
6:02
Speaker 2: just maybe he can explain it more to me. We
6:04
Speaker 2: can have a conversation about it. How about this one
6:07
Speaker 2: here after the anniversary of nine to eleven, there's a
6:12
Speaker 2: Chicago based artist. Since two thousand and one at nine
6:16
Speaker 2: to eleven, Chicago based artist Mark Paul John, known as
6:19
Speaker 2: the Freedom Artist, has hand delivered nearly one thousand tribute
6:22
Speaker 2: drawings to first responders across thirty six states. His mission
6:27
Speaker 2: has been and continues to be, to honor the sacrifices
6:31
Speaker 2: made during nine to eleven, one painting at a time.
6:34
Speaker 2: Mark recently drove more than one thousand miles to visit
6:37
Speaker 2: the Garland Fire Department in Texas, and there he handed
6:41
Speaker 2: over his nine hundred and seventy sixth drawing to the
6:43
Speaker 2: first responders. There, he said, mission accomplished. That's my goal,
6:47
Speaker 2: Mark said, show my appreciation. This is the best way
6:51
Speaker 2: I can show my patriotism. I donate these in honor
6:55
Speaker 2: of remembering American heroes, and it just comes natural to me.
7:00
Speaker 2: How about that? That's in that thought? That was a
7:03
Speaker 2: good one considering we've just gone through the nine to
7:07
Speaker 2: eleven anniversary. You know, just what a week ago, So
7:12
Speaker 2: a little over a week ago. All right, let's get
7:15
Speaker 2: to some weird news, strange and bizarre news from around
7:18
Speaker 2: the world. We start in Scotland, where they just held
7:21
Speaker 2: their annual World Stone Skimming Championship. And if you didn't
7:26
Speaker 2: know there's a World Skimming Chance Stone Skimming Championship, well
7:31
Speaker 2: there you go, there is. And what you probably also
7:35
Speaker 2: didn't know then is that the recent World Stone Skimming
7:40
Speaker 2: Championship was marred by a cheating scandal. Seems that the
7:47
Speaker 2: refs there were letting Patrick Mahomes do whatever he wanted. No,
7:51
Speaker 2: it wouldn't have anything to do with him. Officials at
7:54
Speaker 2: the event which was held on If they're zero to two,
7:58
Speaker 2: I guess the refs have changed. I don't know. I mean,
8:02
Speaker 2: some of those calls in the past were weird. I
8:03
Speaker 2: haven't been watching them this season, but at oh and two,
8:06
Speaker 2: I don't know if we can keep saying that officials
8:09
Speaker 2: at the event, not the Chiefs Games, but the World
8:12
Speaker 2: Stone Skimming Championships, which was held Western Scotland Isle of Easdale.
8:18
Speaker 2: I guess that's how you say it. In Scotland discovered
8:21
Speaker 2: that several competitors were using stones that appeared to be
8:24
Speaker 2: machine shaped, and some sporting artificial notches to help improve
8:29
Speaker 2: the throw. That's a big no no in the contest
8:32
Speaker 2: where the rules require stones be naturally occurring slate from
8:37
Speaker 2: the island itself. These cheaters. Kyle Matthews the event's tossmaster.
8:48
Speaker 2: Not it's not a good uh oh, that's not a
8:54
Speaker 2: good title. That's really not. I don't know. You know,
8:58
Speaker 2: there's certain things that in the US, I don't know
9:03
Speaker 2: that they translate very well. If you watch British humor,
9:08
Speaker 2: if you're Scottish or Australian, you have a different thing
9:13
Speaker 2: that pops in your head when you hear that someone
9:15
Speaker 2: is known as the toss masters. I'm sure that that's
9:19
Speaker 2: not why this guy has the title. I'm sure he's
9:22
Speaker 2: the toss master because he's the one, you know, who's
9:25
Speaker 2: in charge of the stone tosses. But toss master means
9:28
Speaker 2: something completely different in much of the Commonwealth. That's all
9:33
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say. But the toss master for the event
9:38
Speaker 2: says he received calls from participants who feared the integrity
9:42
Speaker 2: of the sport was at risk. You bet you. After investigating,
9:46
Speaker 2: Matthew spoke with the rule breakers, who admitted to the
9:48
Speaker 2: violations and were prompted promptly disqualified. He added, they were
9:53
Speaker 2: deeply apologetic and accepted the decision without protest. To prevent
10:00
Speaker 2: future controversies, organizers are now considering requiring competitors to choose
10:04
Speaker 2: from the stones that are pre selected by the officials,
10:08
Speaker 2: or at the very least pre selected by the tossmaster.
10:13
Speaker 2: You just have to thick a word for it. You
10:15
Speaker 2: don't want to look it up. You probably don't want
10:17
Speaker 2: to look it up, but maybe you do. I don't know. Hey,
10:21
Speaker 2: get to Florida. Let's just jump right there. Go from
10:24
Speaker 2: Scotland to Florida. A woman was arrested for driving the
10:26
Speaker 2: wrong way on the interstate and told cops her husband
10:29
Speaker 2: was the one who was driving. The only problem is
10:31
Speaker 2: she was the only person in the car. Tampa police
10:34
Speaker 2: received a call about a wrong way driver on I
10:37
Speaker 2: four and spotted a silver Toyota Camery speeding westbound in
10:42
Speaker 2: the eastbound lanes at around sixty miles an hour. The
10:45
Speaker 2: driver was twenty four year old Christian Beal, not Kristin Bell.
10:50
Speaker 2: Christian Beal refused to pull over, prompting a high risk pursuit.
10:55
Speaker 2: In the process, she struck a police cruiser before finally
10:59
Speaker 2: being brought to a stop with the pit maneuver. An
11:02
Speaker 2: officer asked Beale, do you realize you were going the
11:05
Speaker 2: wrong way on the interstate? She appeared confused and replied,
11:08
Speaker 2: on this interstate, no, this car? Are you serious? She
11:12
Speaker 2: then claimed it was her husband who was driving, even
11:14
Speaker 2: though there was no one else in the car. She
11:16
Speaker 2: eventually admitted to drinking at two bars, failing a field
11:19
Speaker 2: sobriety test. Her blood alcohol level was more than twice
11:24
Speaker 2: the legal limit. Beal charged with DUI and fleeing police
11:28
Speaker 2: at a high speed. I mean, once you get to
11:33
Speaker 2: the part where you're blaming it on somebody who's not
11:37
Speaker 2: even in the car, I mean, you're gonna have a
11:42
Speaker 2: really hard time, have a really hard time defending that.
11:46
Speaker 2: But obviously she was just that intoxicated. Hey. Dental hygienist
11:50
Speaker 2: in England was recently awarded thirty three thousand dollars in
11:53
Speaker 2: a lawsuit that she filed against a coworker who rolled
11:55
Speaker 2: her eyes at her. The drama unfolded at the dental
11:59
Speaker 2: practice where sixty four year old Maureen Howison was working
12:03
Speaker 2: as a hygienis. She claims the workplace had become hostile
12:06
Speaker 2: because a coworker, jizna Igball, rolled her eyes at her,
12:11
Speaker 2: repeatedly ignoring her during shifts. Howison claims that it was
12:15
Speaker 2: made for a toxic atmosphere and led to panic attacks
12:19
Speaker 2: and eventually forced her to quit, so she sued and
12:22
Speaker 2: she won. The court ultimately found that the practice failed
12:25
Speaker 2: to address Howison's concerns, and the judge called the lack
12:29
Speaker 2: of action an unacceptable omission. This is one of those
12:34
Speaker 2: free speech things in England, isn't it is? You can't
12:36
Speaker 2: roll your eyes at somebody. I mean, I'm not for
12:39
Speaker 2: creating hostile work environments, but come on rolling your eyes.
12:44
Speaker 2: Thirty three grand, a cameraman working on popstar Benson Boone's tour,
12:50
Speaker 2: was arrested last week in Clearwater, Florida, for allegedly urinating
12:53
Speaker 2: on nearly seven hundred dollars worth of clothing inside a
12:56
Speaker 2: beachside surf style shop, which begar Here's the question, who
13:00
Speaker 2: the hell is Benson? I don't know? Should I know
13:03
Speaker 2: who this is, police say thirty nine year old Tyler
13:07
Speaker 2: Kpepart wandered into the store, headed upstairs and was caught
13:11
Speaker 2: on security cameras standing between clothing racks for several minutes.
13:15
Speaker 2: When he walked away, the staff discovered the merchandise and
13:18
Speaker 2: the floor soaked in urine. Kp Part reportedly told police
13:22
Speaker 2: he had been drinking and smoking marijuana and had no
13:24
Speaker 2: memory of the incident. He was charge with criminal mischief
13:28
Speaker 2: and disorderly and intoxication and released on a six hundred
13:31
Speaker 2: and fifty dollars bond. Kappart works as a cameraman on
13:34
Speaker 2: Boone's tour, helping him film the visuals that play behind
13:38
Speaker 2: the singer during performances. It's unclear if he's still working
13:41
Speaker 2: on the tours. Hee the guy that does all the flipping.
13:44
Speaker 2: I think that's who that is. I think Benson Boone
13:46
Speaker 2: is the like he's just flipping around. He's just jumping
13:50
Speaker 2: and flipping and flipping and jumping. Is that who that is?
13:55
Speaker 2: I think that's who that is. I don't know. Maybe
13:58
Speaker 2: I could maybe I don't know, I don't know if
14:01
Speaker 2: it's worth looking up, but maybe I could look it
14:02
Speaker 2: up and figure it out nurse in Kentucky's being credited
14:06
Speaker 2: with saving the life of a baby raccoon that got
14:08
Speaker 2: drunk from eating fermented peaches and nearly drowning a dumpster.
14:12
Speaker 2: Misty Combs, a registered nurse with Whitesburg, spotted two baby
14:17
Speaker 2: raccoons in a dumpster belonging to a nearby moonshine distillery.
14:21
Speaker 2: She was able to lift one of the raccoons out
14:23
Speaker 2: with a shovel, and the other was face down in
14:26
Speaker 2: water and thought to have drowned. Combs picked it up
14:29
Speaker 2: started performing CPR and chest compressions until the animals started breathing.
14:34
Speaker 2: The raccoon was handed over to Kentucky Fish and Wildlife personnel,
14:38
Speaker 2: who brought it to a veterinary clinic. Vets confirmed the
14:41
Speaker 2: raccoon was drunk and given fluids overnight to sober it up.
14:45
Speaker 2: The following day, the animal was returned to the area
14:47
Speaker 2: to be reunited with its mother. So if you're all
14:51
Speaker 2: about saving the wildlife and you don't mind giving CPR
14:54
Speaker 2: to a raccoon, you could be hailed a hero in Kentucky.
14:56
Speaker 2: So that's nice. Today's show brought to you by Columbus

16:51
Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage
16:54
Speaker 2: door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
17:00
Speaker 2: that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance
17:03
Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
17:07
Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
17:11
Speaker 2: care of square and that away for you, and while
17:13
Speaker 2: they're there, you can always ask them questions about some
17:16
Speaker 2: of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to
17:18
Speaker 2: your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what
17:22
Speaker 2: you want it to be and you need some repair
17:24
Speaker 2: work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a
17:26
Speaker 2: brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise
17:30
Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
17:34
Speaker 2: sort of installation issue that you've got. With colder or
17:37
Speaker 2: warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
17:41
Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
17:43
Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
17:47
Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
17:49
Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know,
17:53
Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
17:55
Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man cavid you'd
17:58
Speaker 2: like to be able to open the door up and
17:59
Speaker 2: not invite all the insects in. They can do that
18:02
Speaker 2: for you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
18:05
Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
18:08
Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
18:11
Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, and they do
18:14
Speaker 2: those as well. Seven oh six thy five eight forty

Speaker 2: it's one of those things where you think, Okay, it's
18:46
Speaker 2: gonna come out, and then it doesn't come out, and
18:48
Speaker 2: the people get excited it's gonna come out nowt and
18:50
Speaker 2: then it doesn't come out and they pushed it back,
18:53
Speaker 2: and now the current release schedule is for May twenty
18:56
Speaker 2: twenty six, which has been the case for a little
18:58
Speaker 2: while now. But of course they're promising for the GTA
19:02
Speaker 2: six launch it will be massive Rockstar Games getting ready
19:06
Speaker 2: for a record breaking debut, they say, because apparently it's
19:10
Speaker 2: been a while since Grand Theft Auto five and people
19:14
Speaker 2: are just really excited about you know, a game where
19:17
Speaker 2: you steal cars and you you know, hook up with
19:20
Speaker 2: prostitutes and then kill them and steal your money back
19:23
Speaker 2: the company and that's something you've always been able to
19:25
Speaker 2: do in those games. The company win is for us
19:27
Speaker 2: to describe it. That's not the point of the game.
19:30
Speaker 2: I'm not discrediting the game itself in this sense. It's
19:33
Speaker 2: just one of the things that's available in the game, infamously,
19:37
Speaker 2: but that's not the purpose. There's a story. I don't
19:40
Speaker 2: think that's part of any of the stories, but I
19:41
Speaker 2: don't know. I haven't played them all. The company wins
19:44
Speaker 2: for us to say that this is the largest game
19:47
Speaker 2: launch in history, and behind the scenes they're hiring lots
19:53
Speaker 2: of people to scale things up and handled handle the demand,
19:56
Speaker 2: especially considering it's the first new entry in the franchise
20:00
Speaker 2: for over a decade. A decade is a long time ago,
20:03
Speaker 2: you know, without you know, playing a game where you're
20:05
Speaker 2: killing prostitutes. It's a long time. That's a long stretch
20:11
Speaker 2: of not having that option for the kids, and we
20:15
Speaker 2: wonder why we devalue human life. Earlier this month, at
20:21
Speaker 2: an electronics conference in Berlin, a humanoid robot named r
20:25
Speaker 2: one stole the show by cooking garlic shrimp in what
20:29
Speaker 2: was like a normal looking kitchen with pots and pans.
20:31
Speaker 2: The robot is called the Robbiant, and it's not just
20:36
Speaker 2: a flashy demo. Instead, it's already in mass production and
20:40
Speaker 2: handling real world tasks like cooking, guiding tours, even offering
20:45
Speaker 2: basic medical consultations. Yeah, they're coming for your jobs too,
20:50
Speaker 2: medical professionals. I'm impressed if it's able to cook garlic shrimp,
20:56
Speaker 2: because that, to me is one of those things where
20:58
Speaker 2: you go, you got to get shrimped. You don't want
21:02
Speaker 2: it overcooked, and you definitely don't want it undercooked. So
21:07
Speaker 2: if it's able to get it just right, I think
21:10
Speaker 2: that's a that's an accomplishment. I mean, don't you think so?
21:13
Speaker 2: Isn't that a huge accomplishment? If you can do that,
21:19
Speaker 2: and you can do that just right, I think that's
21:25
Speaker 2: a big win. And then if they're doing the medical
21:27
Speaker 2: consultations and if they start doing surgeries, then you know
21:31
Speaker 2: how far away away from a back to tank? I'd
21:33
Speaker 2: love a back to tank. I've just gone through my
21:35
Speaker 2: surgery and I'm like a couple of weeks in. At
21:38
Speaker 2: any given point, they could have put me in a
21:40
Speaker 2: back to tank, and I would have thought, and if
21:42
Speaker 2: you're not familiar with the back to tank, it's Star Wars,
21:45
Speaker 2: And I would just tell you, if they could throw
21:47
Speaker 2: me in this thing and it got even for two weeks,
21:50
Speaker 2: if I could have just floated in there and then
21:53
Speaker 2: all the pain not be there, and then bring me
21:56
Speaker 2: out and I'm charged and I'm fresh, and you know,
21:59
Speaker 2: ready to tear through some rebel soldiers in a little
22:02
Speaker 2: tunnel on the way into a ship. You know, because
22:08
Speaker 2: that Vader used it, a lot of people used it.
22:10
Speaker 2: You got to get in that tank. You got to
22:12
Speaker 2: get charged up, right, That's what you need. We need
22:15
Speaker 2: a back to tank. Bring it on, all right, So,
22:21
Speaker 2: I mean summers basically over and we're I mean, I
22:25
Speaker 2: know it's not into the you know, oh this is
22:28
Speaker 2: the we haven't gotten to the actual calendar part of it.
22:32
Speaker 2: But we know once you get after Labor Day, once
22:35
Speaker 2: you get into September, it's really we start into fall,
22:39
Speaker 2: but start thinking about things like Christmas, the holidays. We've
22:44
Speaker 2: talked about how people are already shopping. People have started
22:47
Speaker 2: doing that. Lego has jumped into this quickly. They've released
22:51
Speaker 2: several different Advent calendars for the holidays. Harry Potter Minecraft
22:55
Speaker 2: Star Wars, with each calendar filled with twenty four days
22:59
Speaker 2: of any figs, accessories, and other buildable stuff, including a
23:03
Speaker 2: back to tank. No, I just would be that would
23:06
Speaker 2: have been neat. Maybe maybe there's a back to tank
23:10
Speaker 2: is one of these options. I don't know. I don't
23:11
Speaker 2: know how it would fit in an Advent calendar, but
23:16
Speaker 2: I'm just saying that would have been a cool coincidence
23:19
Speaker 2: if they had a little back to tank for the minifigs.
23:22
Speaker 2: Most of the set's priced it under forty dollars, so
23:24
Speaker 2: it's not a working back to tank. If it's forty dollars,
23:27
Speaker 2: that's my guess. So under forty bucks, that's all right.
23:30
Speaker 2: All right. That'll do it for this Friday edition of
23:32
Speaker 2: the show. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons Patreon dot com,
