Transcript
- 0:24Speaker 1: Good meeting everybody, and welcome to another edition of the
- 0:27Speaker 1: MotorCity Mad Mile Show. My name is Scott Morgan. Rock
- 0:29Speaker 1: you guys at the Motor City Man mount while would
- 0:31Speaker 1: my Caelo, Steve Ballastari, it's going on, Steve Marino.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Hey, how you doing, my friend? It's always a great
- 0:37Speaker 2: day in the neighborhood.
- 0:38Speaker 3: When I get to talk to you.
- 0:40Speaker 1: It's always a great day in the neighborhood. I get talked
- 0:42Speaker 1: to you too. Guess what our neighborhood is gonna span
- 0:45Speaker 1: to Japan and Turkey and everywhere else we can take it,
- 0:48Speaker 1: and we're gonna have news dimensions to the show every lad.
- 0:51Speaker 1: So let's go to Japan first. Now, Japan has over
- 0:54Speaker 1: three point five million vending machines. They're on sidewalks, Station's Mountain,
- 1:00Speaker 1: even remote village is. They don't just sell snacks, they drinks,
- 1:04Speaker 1: also have t shirts, soys, umbrellas and more, and they're
- 1:08Speaker 1: quietly solved real world problems across the country. This is
- 1:13Speaker 1: how Japan built a unique venting machine empire that transformed daylight.
- 1:18Speaker 1: Where you talked about the venting machine, Steve, that you
- 1:23Speaker 1: know leave it to the Japanese.
- 1:24Speaker 2: I mean they're they're very industrious, smart people and uh,
- 1:30Speaker 2: you know they I've heard this in the past. They
- 1:34Speaker 2: have vending machines for everything, and yeah, you know, I
- 1:38Speaker 2: think it's it's awesome.
- 1:40Speaker 3: I mean, how can you can you argue with that?
- 1:43Speaker 1: Yeah, that will get their businesses either the way to
- 1:46Speaker 1: serve customers without that. That's why vening machines became the answer.
- 1:50Speaker 1: I'll continue the theme. They started simple, Okay, they had drinks,
- 1:55Speaker 1: and then they had train tickets, and they expanded a
- 1:58Speaker 1: the hot meals, umbrella batteries, and even t shirts. Continue on. Japan.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Japan was a perfect place. They had low crime, high trust,
- 2:07Speaker 1: advanced tech. The ideal mixed for unattended commerce to thrive.
- 2:12Speaker 1: But these machines did more than self products. See, they
- 2:17Speaker 1: quietly solved real problems, economic, social, and even logistical. In
- 2:22Speaker 1: the rural areas. They filled gaps. Okay, where stores are
- 2:28Speaker 1: half we're missing. Many machines stayed open elderly people could
- 2:32Speaker 1: buy essentials nearby. Now we're getting elderly people involved there.
- 2:36Speaker 1: And obviously many machines are stocked with emergency food and water,
- 2:41Speaker 1: ready for earthquakes or power outages. There you go and
- 2:45Speaker 1: in busney cities. They saved times. They had no lines,
- 2:48Speaker 1: no employees, no delays, They had twenty four seven access
- 2:51Speaker 1: or students, workers and tourists. And it gets even better.
- 2:57Speaker 1: No rent, oh my gosh, no salaries, just set up
- 3:00Speaker 1: refills and maintenance. And actually the farmers benefited too, because
- 3:06Speaker 1: some of machines were able to sell local produce like
- 3:10Speaker 1: fruits straight from farms to consumers. See then they become
- 3:15Speaker 1: high tech. That's just awesome, isn't it. I mean, I mean,
- 3:19Speaker 1: this is this is surreal. That's why I made the show.
- 3:21Speaker 1: Oh but I'm almost there. You get touch means face recognition,
- 3:26Speaker 1: contactless payments. Yet even old school machines that'll work will lessly,
- 3:30Speaker 1: tours love them. You can buy Raymond, you can do
- 3:34Speaker 1: toy peer or flowers right on the sidewalk. Social impact
- 3:39Speaker 1: also counts. Some machines actually donate part of the profits
- 3:43Speaker 1: of schools or local causes. Now get this. You talked
- 3:46Speaker 1: about this before. During COVID, they kept things moving. Contactless,
- 3:50Speaker 1: ship shopping, no crowds, no contact. Japan expanded the network
- 3:56Speaker 1: even further. And there you go, Steeve, that's the story
- 3:59Speaker 1: about man. Let's put out there.
- 4:03Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, you know, I've seen this in the past
- 4:06Speaker 2: where tourists are there. It starts the rain. They go
- 4:09Speaker 2: to a vending machine. They can get an umbrella or
- 4:13Speaker 2: a rain hat or a rain jacket right there on
- 4:16Speaker 2: the street. You know, some of their hot food stuff,
- 4:21Speaker 2: like we wouldn't trust that in this country, but over there,
- 4:25Speaker 2: it's like a big thing and everybody does it. I
- 4:30Speaker 2: just think it's awesome. And you know, the one thing
- 4:35Speaker 2: about Japanese cities too I've read about is how clean
- 4:38Speaker 2: they are. And as you said just a minute ago,
- 4:42Speaker 2: I mean, there's very little crime and they're very crowded.
- 4:47Speaker 2: You would think as crowded as some of their big
- 4:51Speaker 2: cities are, crime would be a huge issue that it's
- 4:54Speaker 2: really not. They're so far ahead of you know, where
- 5:00Speaker 2: we are in a lot of different aspects.
- 5:03Speaker 3: And hats off to the Japanese.
- 5:06Speaker 1: I'll tell you when I saw this, I had to
- 5:08Speaker 1: put it on this their I mean, they didn't miss
- 5:11Speaker 1: a beat with death. I mean, you name it. The
- 5:13Speaker 1: only thing they didn't have was shoes in there and
- 5:16Speaker 1: some of the big overcodes that they did a stuff
- 5:18Speaker 1: ben than a vending machine, they would have just about
- 5:21Speaker 1: everything you could get undelievable. Well, let's say things down
- 5:25Speaker 1: to Florida, because Florida's new DUI law to land you
- 5:30Speaker 1: in prison for thirty years. According to Florida News, even
- 5:34Speaker 1: refusing you presents can land you in jail. Steve, great
- 5:38Speaker 1: move or not.
- 5:41Speaker 3: Look, you know we just had that huge accident right right.
- 5:49Speaker 2: Where somebody drove the wrong way on seventy five and
- 5:54Speaker 2: south killed the ninety six year old man at four
- 5:57Speaker 2: o'clock this morning.
- 5:59Speaker 3: Wow, euy.
- 6:00Speaker 2: Laws in the state are very you could almost say draconian,
- 6:07Speaker 2: but you know they need to be.
- 6:10Speaker 3: I mean, you know, the old slap on the wrist
- 6:13Speaker 3: isn't working.
- 6:14Speaker 2: I mean we see it all the time here people,
- 6:18Speaker 2: especially in the Fort Myers area. You know, we have
- 6:23Speaker 2: Highway eighty two which is really straight and flat, and
- 6:27Speaker 2: people are out there at night, you know, drinking and driving, racing.
- 6:31Speaker 2: There's accidents in there constantly, and the law just can't.
- 6:36Speaker 3: Keep up with it. They need to be the law
- 6:39Speaker 3: needs to be as strict as you can make it,
- 6:43Speaker 3: you know, because people are killing other people out there,
- 6:47Speaker 3: and that's when it ceases to be the slap on
- 6:50Speaker 3: the wrist, because you're taking someone's life.
- 6:54Speaker 1: That the whole page. The people that drive with too
- 6:57Speaker 1: much in it. I agree that a harder and the
- 7:00Speaker 1: stronger you can make these losses better off. You really
- 7:03Speaker 1: really are. Well, we'll go from one extreme to another extreme.
- 7:06Speaker 1: The ninety two year old couple buy the Force nine
- 7:10Speaker 1: ninety two GT three for the setieth anniversary and they're
- 7:14Speaker 1: located in the United Kate Kingdom. This is a great
- 7:17Speaker 1: story too, isn't a team?
- 7:19Speaker 3: Yeah? Look good for them.
- 7:21Speaker 2: I mean, God bless them that that that they're still
- 7:24Speaker 2: able to get out there and function like you know,
- 7:29Speaker 2: and buying a luxury vehicle like that, you know they're
- 7:34Speaker 2: going to have some fun in it. So hats off
- 7:37Speaker 2: to them. I mean, look, you live to be ninety
- 7:40Speaker 2: seven years old, drive whatever the heck you want.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Blame has great stuff and the seventieth anniversary ninety two
- 7:48Speaker 1: year old people, good for them. There are stories like
- 7:51Speaker 1: this out there too. All right. Well, here's another one
- 7:54Speaker 1: that a little bit controversial in it's own right to
- 7:57Speaker 1: the Georgia Teacher of the Year finalists sus A District
- 8:00Speaker 1: after being removed from a classroom over Charlie Kirk post
- 8:04Speaker 1: which actually said, while I'm saying that we live in
- 8:07Speaker 1: a country where gun violence is an epidemic. The world
- 8:10Speaker 1: is a bit safer without him. Do you agree or
- 8:12Speaker 1: disagree with her statement? Oh? I, you broke up a
- 8:18Speaker 1: little there.
- 8:19Speaker 3: I missed that.
- 8:21Speaker 1: Want to go over it again?
- 8:22Speaker 3: Did say?
- 8:25Speaker 1: I see the quote says well, I'm saying that we
- 8:27Speaker 1: live in a country where gun violence is an epidemic. Okay,
- 8:31Speaker 1: the world is a bit safer without him.
- 8:36Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't believe that.
- 8:37Speaker 2: I mean, look, Charlie Kirk didn't advocate hate or violence
- 8:42Speaker 2: toward anyone.
- 8:43Speaker 3: His big thing was, you know, change my mind, and
- 8:48Speaker 3: he would.
- 8:48Speaker 2: He would encourage people who disagreed with him to come
- 8:52Speaker 2: up in front of him and debate.
- 8:57Speaker 3: There's nothing wrong with that. In fact, there should be
- 9:00Speaker 3: more of that, excuse me in this country. Look, I
- 9:06Speaker 3: you know, I understand that.
- 9:08Speaker 2: A lot of people don't believe in the things that
- 9:11Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk did. But at the same time, you know,
- 9:16Speaker 2: he didn't advocate violence toward anyone.
- 9:19Speaker 3: I mean, I just I find that it's very.
- 9:25Speaker 2: Typical of today though, because so many people they're so
- 9:30Speaker 2: set in their beliefs that like anyone disagrees with them,
- 9:35Speaker 2: they have to be violently dealt with and that. I
- 9:39Speaker 2: don't know what's wrong with this country, but that's a
- 9:42Speaker 2: major problem everywhere. There's no more civilized discourse.
- 9:46Speaker 1: In this country. Move from the classroom. Get real. I
- 9:54Speaker 1: didn't say what she was saying was totally all wrong,
- 9:56Speaker 1: but they didn't break removing her from a class I
- 9:59Speaker 1: don't know what that par if I agree with everything
- 10:01Speaker 1: else you said, I mean to me, she was entitled
- 10:03Speaker 1: to her everybody I heard about their right free speech
- 10:08Speaker 1: to deliver it. Of course that they didn't like it
- 10:11Speaker 1: in Georgia, yep. So Rogan warns that liberal celebration of
- 10:18Speaker 1: kirk assassination shows that we're closer the civil war when
- 10:22Speaker 1: people start rejoicing over someone's death, especially in public killing
- 10:26Speaker 1: witnessed by the world, in their family, and it reflects
- 10:29Speaker 1: the serving moral decline in the country. And it's coming
- 10:32Speaker 1: from Joe Rogan.
- 10:33Speaker 2: Steve Yeah, once again, I mean, we don't have a
- 10:41Speaker 2: great connection tonight. You broke up a little bit, but
- 10:44Speaker 2: I get where Joe Rogan was coming from with that.
- 10:47Speaker 2: And look again, it goes to this. I mean, you know,
- 10:53Speaker 2: just because somebody has different political or religious beliefs than you,
- 10:58Speaker 2: and he's murdered in front of a bunch of people
- 11:02Speaker 2: that that's nothing too two to celebrate there's I mean,
- 11:11Speaker 2: it's ridiculous. And again I go back to Charlie Kirk.
- 11:14Speaker 2: I mean, he did not advocate violence against anyone, nor
- 11:18Speaker 2: you know anything. There's a lot of stuff that's going
- 11:24Speaker 2: on now. I wasn't even a huge Charlie Kirk fan myself,
- 11:28Speaker 2: but at the same time, behind him dangerous in any way,
- 11:36Speaker 2: you know. And he he had his own personal beliefs
- 11:39Speaker 2: and he was willing to sit and debate with anybody.
- 11:43Speaker 3: And that again, I go back to the same thing.
- 11:46Speaker 2: I know I'm repeating myself, but there there should be
- 11:49Speaker 2: more of that in this country. And and there's no
- 11:53Speaker 2: reason to celebrate his murder. I mean, he wasn't a
- 11:56Speaker 2: dangerous person.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Heard of Charlie Kirk. Until I heard he got the
- 12:01Speaker 1: stampin it. I didn't even know who he woked for
- 12:03Speaker 1: me at all. Again, I don't pay attention to that
- 12:06Speaker 1: stuff but one. But sometimes that's the first time to
- 12:09Speaker 1: hear from something now so it becomes big news. So
- 12:13Speaker 1: earl kids, he says, who do you think kill them?
- 12:18Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. I mean, that's that's a good question.
- 12:23Speaker 2: I mean, no one's answered that yet, but again it
- 12:26Speaker 2: was like, you don't like the message, so you murder
- 12:30Speaker 2: the person. And unfortunately it speaks to a larger problem
- 12:36Speaker 2: within the United States. I mean, we have everyone talks
- 12:40Speaker 2: about gun violence, but it's not gun violence, and to me,
- 12:44Speaker 2: it's the.
- 12:46Speaker 3: Lack of empathy for human life.
- 12:48Speaker 2: People are so immune to death now that like the
- 12:53Speaker 2: slightest thing, they want to kill somebody, right, And I
- 12:58Speaker 2: don't remember growing up where.
- 13:01Speaker 3: That was the norm.
- 13:02Speaker 2: I mean, of course there was always people who felt
- 13:06Speaker 2: like that, but it seems like there's a lot more
- 13:09Speaker 2: of those type of people today in the world that
- 13:13Speaker 2: we live in.
- 13:14Speaker 3: And it's sad state of affairs, isn't it, my friend?
- 13:18Speaker 1: Yeah, but social media has had a lot to do
- 13:20Speaker 1: with it too. I mean you think when they start
- 13:22Speaker 1: talking about it, then you get everybody going hey, you know,
- 13:25Speaker 1: and so that hasn't help matters anything. You're right, I mean,
- 13:28Speaker 1: everything's such an incident. News cycles ridiculous. Well, you know,
- 13:31Speaker 1: we're going to go back to your old neck of
- 13:32Speaker 1: the woods. We're talk a little soccer because Boston reaches
- 13:36Speaker 1: a deal for a future MLS stadium for the New
- 13:40Speaker 1: England Revolution, the Craft Group and the cities of Boston
- 13:43Speaker 1: and Ever reached agreements. Capacity to the stadium seems to
- 13:46Speaker 1: be twenty five thousand. They call it a waterfront stadium
- 13:50Speaker 1: and a public park along the Mystic River. The Crafts
- 13:53Speaker 1: obviously committed millions for trans and access, local jobs, schools,
- 13:59Speaker 1: and community use up there. So yeah, about the Revolution
- 14:05Speaker 1: and the Craft finally getting their own place.
- 14:08Speaker 2: That's that's a great move by Craft and for the Revolution.
- 14:11Speaker 2: They needed their own home. The Revolution hate and as
- 14:19Speaker 2: well as every other soccer team. They hate playing on
- 14:23Speaker 2: that artificial term, right. They want to play on natural grass.
- 14:28Speaker 2: And to answer Earl's question, I was seventh Special. So
- 14:38Speaker 2: but back to the Revolution, this is a great move
- 14:40Speaker 2: for them. There was an old power station. It was
- 14:46Speaker 2: like Boston Edison and Light. It's now abandoned. It's not
- 14:49Speaker 2: used anymore. The land was going to waste. It was
- 14:53Speaker 2: a great spot for it. Craftice building a nice stadium.
- 14:58Speaker 2: It'll hold like twenty five thirty thousand people, I believe,
- 15:02Speaker 2: and it's right there along the Mystic.
- 15:04Speaker 3: It's a perfect spot for it.
- 15:06Speaker 2: It's right off the expressway in Boston, so it'll be
- 15:08Speaker 2: easy to get to and from the Revolution games and look,
- 15:13Speaker 2: they needed their own home. I mean, they've been sharing
- 15:16Speaker 2: Gillette Stadium with the Patriots. But because the Patriots play
- 15:20Speaker 2: on artificial turf, you know, the Revolution they disliked that,
- 15:26Speaker 2: as all soccer teams do. And you know, and right
- 15:31Speaker 2: now the stadium has natural grass because with the World
- 15:36Speaker 2: Cup coming to the United States this year, they tore
- 15:40Speaker 2: up the artificial turf and they planted natural grass for.
- 15:46Speaker 3: The World Cup. But I heard they are going to
- 15:50Speaker 3: remove it prior to football season started.
- 15:55Speaker 2: I was hoping they would leave the natural grass just
- 15:58Speaker 2: for at least one year to see how how it
- 16:02Speaker 2: worked out.
- 16:02Speaker 3: Again.
- 16:05Speaker 1: Well, like I said, more probably the Revolution and the
- 16:08Speaker 1: Franks obviously put their money in their pockets.
- 16:10Speaker 2: I think it was a great, great move for them.
- 16:13Speaker 2: So well, e I've you know, what, what was your
- 16:19Speaker 2: dad's name and what years was he there? Because uh,
- 16:22Speaker 2: we might have even known each other.
- 16:28Speaker 1: I'll probably answer that, how would you like to be
- 16:30Speaker 1: able to do show Steve under forty minutes? Because that's
- 16:33Speaker 1: we're on pace to do right now. We believe that
- 16:36Speaker 1: because we're on pace to do it, and we're doing
- 16:38Speaker 1: real well with what we have play.
- 16:40Speaker 2: Well, we're just zipping right through stuff. Okay, we want
- 16:43Speaker 2: a lot of interesting stuff. Okay, Earl, he was before
- 16:46Speaker 2: my time. He did two georgs in Vietnam. Yeah that
- 16:49Speaker 2: I came in. Yeah, he must have been in seventh
- 16:55Speaker 2: group after after his tour in Vietnam.
- 16:59Speaker 1: Yeah, I have knuncle that actually through the tour in
- 17:02Speaker 1: Vietnam two as well. So everybody's familiar with the agent
- 17:05Speaker 1: orange out there. A lot of people were affected by
- 17:07Speaker 1: agent orange and that was bad, especially out there. So yes,
- 17:12Speaker 1: so all right, well, our feature topic of the night
- 17:15Speaker 1: is actually jobs with the highest death rates. Why would
- 17:20Speaker 1: we do that because I'm going to tell you something
- 17:22Speaker 1: a lot of people should be recognized that thoroughly. Don't
- 17:25Speaker 1: go ahead and get recognized that we're going to start
- 17:27Speaker 1: it off that pilots and flight engineers. Aircraft pilots die
- 17:33Speaker 1: at sixty per one hundred thousand workers. Smaller aircraft cashes,
- 17:37Speaker 1: crashes and mechanical failures tell pilots regularly, yearly. Some thoughts
- 17:42Speaker 1: about that.
- 17:43Speaker 4: See yeah, and look, I mean, as safe as we've
- 17:48Speaker 4: made the aviation industry, and it is safe, there's still
- 17:53Speaker 4: a lot of accidents and look, you know, flying of
- 17:57Speaker 4: an aircraft is.
- 18:00Speaker 2: Know, it's still a dangerous profession. And you know, with
- 18:06Speaker 2: the increase I believe in extreme weather events we're having
- 18:12Speaker 2: these days, I think that's that plays into the dangerous
- 18:16Speaker 2: of I think we have much worse storms than we
- 18:21Speaker 2: had maybe twenty five thirty years ago. The frequency of
- 18:26Speaker 2: them is it's get I don't know what it is.
- 18:29Speaker 2: It's probably just natural climate change, but look, it's it's
- 18:34Speaker 2: a dangerous business.
- 18:35Speaker 1: I've flown into aircraft.
- 18:36Speaker 2: I crashed in one when I was in the military,
- 18:39Speaker 2: so I was able to walk away from it.
- 18:42Speaker 3: But it's still a nightmare scenario.
- 18:46Speaker 2: And look, I think that that stat is probably quite telling.
- 18:54Speaker 1: Wow, we'll trying to get better because now we've got
- 18:56Speaker 1: we're talking fisher man commercial fish. He kills about eighty
- 19:00Speaker 1: workers for one hundred thousand Angeli Johnny. Hypothermia and equipment
- 19:04Speaker 1: a cause most of the deaths.
- 19:06Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, one of the shows I really used
- 19:10Speaker 2: to like was Deadliest Catch. I don't know if you
- 19:13Speaker 2: ever watched that, but some of those fishermen they go
- 19:16Speaker 2: and like you know, some of those waters, especially up
- 19:20Speaker 2: by Alaska, that is some dangerous stuff. And you see
- 19:25Speaker 2: the weather out there and the sea is very unforgiving.
- 19:29Speaker 3: I mean, you know up there in Alaska some of
- 19:33Speaker 3: those fisher but.
- 19:34Speaker 2: They're not big and the waves out there are incredible.
- 19:39Speaker 3: The North Sea is another one.
- 19:40Speaker 2: I mean, you look at the fishermen who deal up
- 19:44Speaker 2: in the North Sea, you know, between England, Norway and
- 19:49Speaker 2: the Nordic countries up there, I mean Iceland. That the
- 19:53Speaker 2: ocean up there is so unforgiven. And hats off to
- 19:57Speaker 2: the fishermen. They earn every nickel they make, Yeah, they
- 20:01Speaker 2: sure do.
- 20:02Speaker 1: And I look at the pictures of some of these
- 20:03Speaker 1: things and what they have to wear to get these
- 20:06Speaker 1: things in and is definitely appreciated, especially when you look
- 20:08Speaker 1: at the video. There's a lot of people when I
- 20:10Speaker 1: talk about, don't have the ability to look at the visuals.
- 20:13Speaker 1: I do as I pick them up. But nevertheless, kudos
- 20:15Speaker 1: to the fishermen as well. All right, Well, garbage collectors.
- 20:18Speaker 1: Track collectors die at forty four per one hundred thousand,
- 20:23Speaker 1: with workers being hit by vehicles following off trucks and
- 20:26Speaker 1: are caused most of the deaths and white bear in
- 20:29Speaker 1: mind that some of the more dramatic ones include soldiers,
- 20:32Speaker 1: firefighters and somethman. But let's go back to the garbage collectors.
- 20:39Speaker 3: Yeah, you know.
- 20:40Speaker 2: And then at first when you said that garbage collector,
- 20:44Speaker 2: I was thinking, Wow, I wouldn't think that. But then again, okay,
- 20:50Speaker 2: you and I we live in the state of Florida,
- 20:52Speaker 2: and the way people driver around here, I would not
- 20:55Speaker 2: want to be a garbage collector, not for anything other
- 20:58Speaker 2: than people will run you over here without paying attention
- 21:03Speaker 2: while they fly down the side streets and you can,
- 21:06Speaker 2: I mean, you can see a garbage truck for blocks, right.
- 21:09Speaker 3: It's not like those things are invisible.
- 21:12Speaker 2: You know, there's guys walking, you know, in front or
- 21:15Speaker 2: behind that thing, and they're they're carrying people's you know,
- 21:19Speaker 2: trash cans, right, but it doesn't stop anyone from flying
- 21:23Speaker 2: past them. And it's I see it happen all the time.
- 21:28Speaker 2: Our garbage is collected on Tuesdays in my area, and
- 21:34Speaker 2: you know, I live on backstreets and I watch people
- 21:38Speaker 2: fly by them all the time, and I just shake
- 21:40Speaker 2: my head and yeah, that actually makes a lot of sense,
- 21:46Speaker 2: see people. To Earl, I mean to get off. Earl
- 21:51Speaker 2: was a Signal Corps and he was at station at
- 21:53Speaker 2: Fort brag excuse me, That's where I was stationed for
- 21:57Speaker 2: quite a few years.
- 21:58Speaker 3: Myself.
- 21:58Speaker 2: I went through Special Forces training at Fort Drag. I
- 22:03Speaker 2: was in the Seventh Group at Fort Drag and later
- 22:06Speaker 2: on in the country of Panama while we still had
- 22:10Speaker 2: part of Seventh Group deployed down there. So I know
- 22:13Speaker 2: Fort Drag quite well.
- 22:16Speaker 1: I see, I took coverage collectors for granted, But then
- 22:20Speaker 1: I read this thing. Wow, that's just unbelievable. Well, obviously
- 22:24Speaker 1: on one that is pretty obvious. Roopers dying at fifty
- 22:28Speaker 1: four one hundred thousand from all both sets happened falling
- 22:31Speaker 1: off roof or through structures.
- 22:36Speaker 3: Yep.
- 22:36Speaker 2: And again, I mean you know, I did one one
- 22:43Speaker 2: winter of roofing for a friend of mine. We had
- 22:46Speaker 2: his own roofing company. I had just got out of
- 22:50Speaker 2: the military. I was between jobs. He needed some help
- 22:54Speaker 2: one winter in the state of New Hampshire. And he
- 22:57Speaker 2: had to tell you that was some cold, old windy
- 23:01Speaker 2: work up there because it was off Lake Winnipesak.
- 23:04Speaker 3: And that was one winter I wouldn't care to live.
- 23:10Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll tell you what they're showing here is actually
- 23:13Speaker 1: a roofer was holding onto one of those things that
- 23:15Speaker 1: holds them up washing windows or whatever on one of
- 23:18Speaker 1: those high rises, and that's a scary thought where this
- 23:21Speaker 1: looks like a picture that was actually taken in New
- 23:24Speaker 1: York City. All right, well, let's talk about logging workers.
- 23:27Speaker 1: This is one that most people don't even think about.
- 23:29Speaker 1: Logging is the highest that rate of Andy John one
- 23:32Speaker 1: hundred deaths per one hundred thousand from falling trees annually.
- 23:35Speaker 1: I mean that's bad.
- 23:38Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, And again, I mean, you know, we think
- 23:42Speaker 2: of larger but the trees that those.
- 23:46Speaker 3: Guys cut down them are incredibly large.
- 23:50Speaker 2: And I mean, again, that's a dangerous job. You have
- 23:53Speaker 2: guys that, you know, cutting them down. I'm sure they
- 23:58Speaker 2: have plenty of accidents with saws and some of the
- 24:01Speaker 2: machines that they use. And I remember actually when I
- 24:06Speaker 2: was in Special Forces, I was in a jungle camp
- 24:11Speaker 2: that we had in Bolivia, and one night, just as
- 24:17Speaker 2: it was getting dark, a logging truck came in because
- 24:21Speaker 2: one of the loggers that they cut down mahogany trees
- 24:24Speaker 2: down there. You know that when they cut down these
- 24:28Speaker 2: big sections of mahogany trees, they would put them on
- 24:30Speaker 2: a big flatbed and they for a chain over the top,
- 24:34Speaker 2: and they had a cable. The cable snapped and hit
- 24:37Speaker 2: the guy right under the chin and it didn't kill him,
- 24:41Speaker 2: but it peeled his face completely off. Oh my god,
- 24:46Speaker 2: his skin was hanging by fred and it looked like
- 24:50Speaker 2: you know, you ever see those pictures of the medical
- 24:56Speaker 2: professional skeletons where they have all the musculature and the
- 24:59Speaker 2: high Wow. And our medic was able to get the
- 25:06Speaker 2: guy's face sewn back on enough. It wasn't quite all
- 25:10Speaker 2: the way straight, but enough to get him to a
- 25:13Speaker 2: serious hospital.
- 25:15Speaker 3: And I'll never forget that.
- 25:17Speaker 2: And again, hats off to the loggers because that's a
- 25:20Speaker 2: dangerous job.
- 25:22Speaker 1: Imagine how many surgeries the guy had. Kinzie says, I
- 25:26Speaker 1: wasn't jumping no pair of plane. I don't blame it
- 25:29Speaker 1: all right, Well here's the one that Now, this one
- 25:31Speaker 1: does make one airplane.
- 25:33Speaker 3: Now I'm a petri when I was in army.
- 25:37Speaker 2: This will make no sense, right, I climb mountains, I
- 25:44Speaker 2: love jumping out of airplanes, but I'm petrified heights. Okay,
- 25:49Speaker 2: but I did all the stuff that scared the heck
- 25:51Speaker 2: out of me, and my wife thinks it's.
- 25:54Speaker 3: So hilarious that I do not like getting on.
- 25:58Speaker 2: A step ladder to go up on the roof to
- 26:00Speaker 2: clean out whatever, you know, and she's like a paratrooper
- 26:04Speaker 2: with you know, four hundred jumps out of airplanes, and
- 26:08Speaker 2: you don't like it in a step.
- 26:09Speaker 3: Like, no, I do not.
- 26:12Speaker 1: I used to not mind heights, but then they get older.
- 26:14Speaker 1: I don't like them anymore more.
- 26:18Speaker 3: Don't like.
- 26:20Speaker 1: Two or ago. Got truck drivers have twenty six cept
- 26:23Speaker 1: for one hundred thousand from vehicle crashes, long hours, fatigue
- 26:27Speaker 1: that way after it posess And now this one doesn't
- 26:29Speaker 1: surprise me. I'm surprised there aren't a lot more compared
- 26:32Speaker 1: to the other ones. I actually thought about wanting to
- 26:35Speaker 1: be a truck driver at some point. But you know,
- 26:38Speaker 1: when you're talking about fatigue, yep, you know, I get it.
- 26:42Speaker 3: It's a it's a real it's a real thing. And
- 26:45Speaker 3: and look, I mean.
- 26:48Speaker 2: The owner operators up today, I mean, you know, so
- 26:55Speaker 2: they're under so much pressure. I mean, because it's hard
- 26:59Speaker 2: to make a living driving a truck these days, and
- 27:01Speaker 2: they push it. They drive one should be sleeping, and
- 27:06Speaker 2: they a lot of times they drive way too fast.
- 27:09Speaker 2: I mean we've seen it. And with the traffic nowadays,
- 27:13Speaker 2: and you know in all the urbanized areas, and again
- 27:18Speaker 2: the other drivers are just as bad when it comes
- 27:21Speaker 2: to truck drivers. But right, hey, I totally buy that
- 27:27Speaker 2: one as well.
- 27:29Speaker 1: You know, our last on construction workers. Construction had twenty
- 27:33Speaker 1: five deaths for one hundred thousand workers yearly, allos, including
- 27:37Speaker 1: elecplication from that one being struck by all objects. It
- 27:41Speaker 1: kills both workers. That makes a lot of sense to
- 27:42Speaker 1: even see some of those on stadiums. I see those
- 27:45Speaker 1: sometimes that I overall the application party day, some talked
- 27:49Speaker 1: about construction workers.
- 27:51Speaker 2: Oh yeah, because look, I think there was something recently
- 27:55Speaker 2: in the news about, you know, they were building a
- 27:58Speaker 2: big new building and when they do that, the foundation
- 28:03Speaker 2: for these big high rises, they're really deep into the ground,
- 28:06Speaker 2: and they were digging a deep hole right to put
- 28:10Speaker 2: the foundation in for a big I think it was
- 28:13Speaker 2: going to be a seven or eight story building, and
- 28:18Speaker 2: the trench or whatever collapsed on some workers, and I
- 28:23Speaker 2: know at least one guy lost his life. And then
- 28:26Speaker 2: you know, you have other accidents, scaffolding accidents that are
- 28:31Speaker 2: involved in the construction industry. I mean, yeah, it goes
- 28:35Speaker 2: on and on. So yeah, I'm not surprised by that
- 28:39Speaker 2: one at all.
- 28:40Speaker 1: Let's Frank Katie Ebling and the fake Share and let's
- 28:43Speaker 1: talk about some of these jobs, any of them strike
- 28:46Speaker 1: out strike for you about which one is the most dangerous?
- 28:53Speaker 5: You know, it doesn't surprise me sometimes we don't think
- 28:56Speaker 5: of some of the dangers that are involved in some
- 28:59Speaker 5: of these jobs.
- 29:00Speaker 2: You know.
- 29:02Speaker 5: You think of you know, let's say a nurse, you know,
- 29:07Speaker 5: and with a patient, if like she gets jabbed by
- 29:10Speaker 5: the wrong thing, I mean, you just you know, and yeah,
- 29:14Speaker 5: garbage collectors down here in Florida, Oh my goodness, drivers.
- 29:19Speaker 5: I think about like the community that we live in
- 29:23Speaker 5: and how people are parking right on the street, right
- 29:26Speaker 5: up to the grass because you can't park on the grass,
- 29:28Speaker 5: but you're and then you got this garbage truck weaving
- 29:31Speaker 5: in and out, and then you're trying to pass them
- 29:34Speaker 5: because you got to get to work.
- 29:35Speaker 6: And then there's someone behind.
- 29:37Speaker 5: You going quick or coming around the corner, like they're
- 29:39Speaker 5: coming around the corner, and it's like, wow, yeah, there's
- 29:43Speaker 5: something you don't think of always.
- 29:46Speaker 2: So well, I was just watching the thing on the
- 29:48Speaker 2: news tonight, Candy. They were talking about this one neighborhood
- 29:52Speaker 2: where there's such a big amount of traffic on the
- 29:57Speaker 2: main drag where all these constructed vehicle and and heavy
- 30:03Speaker 2: you know, semi types and huge dump trucks that are
- 30:10Speaker 2: that are not designed for these backstreets. They're flying through
- 30:14Speaker 2: this one particular neighborhood. It was on the news tonight
- 30:18Speaker 2: and people are going way too fast down this little
- 30:21Speaker 2: side street where kids are getting on school buses and
- 30:24Speaker 2: getting off school buses and walking home.
- 30:29Speaker 3: It's crazy around here.
- 30:31Speaker 6: It is.
- 30:32Speaker 3: It is.
- 30:32Speaker 5: And add to it that, you know, you would think
- 30:35Speaker 5: people would know how to they would have learned how to.
- 30:38Speaker 6: Drive in the rain down in Florida, but they don't.
- 30:41Speaker 6: They don't.
- 30:44Speaker 3: Floridas as.
- 30:47Speaker 2: Has adopted the worst drivers in forty nine other states.
- 30:52Speaker 2: I mean, I thought Boston drivers were horrible until I
- 30:56Speaker 2: moved here. And when I moved here permanently, I was like, Nope,
- 31:02Speaker 2: Boston is not the worst place anymore. Yeah.
- 31:06Speaker 1: I'm kind of glad I'm on the inside a lot
- 31:07Speaker 1: in these days, because that really kind of worse to me.
- 31:10Speaker 1: But I remember the bad drivers in Florida a lot,
- 31:15Speaker 1: and I do a little with it as I can.
- 31:18Speaker 1: Or well, our final topic of the night, actually take
- 31:21Speaker 1: it since the Turkey, then we're gonna have some fun
- 31:23Speaker 1: with this one too. And if you talk vending, the
- 31:26Speaker 1: sines are interesting. Let's talk about Turkish people what they do. Okay,
- 31:32Speaker 1: Turkish people celebrate oil wrestling is a national sports team.
- 31:36Speaker 1: Oil wrestling is a national sport. My goodness, can't you
- 31:41Speaker 1: understand for this one? Sure they think oil wrestling is
- 31:45Speaker 1: a national sport.
- 31:48Speaker 5: You know it takes it takes a lot to do wrestling,
- 31:52Speaker 5: but you said oil wrestling.
- 31:54Speaker 1: Yeah, oil wrestling candy. It gets things to get a
- 31:57Speaker 1: little slippery.
- 31:59Speaker 3: They do baby oil wrestling or like motoroile wrestling.
- 32:07Speaker 6: Either way you're slippery. And but you'd have to be.
- 32:14Speaker 5: Very in shape to do wrestling, especially slippery oil wrestling.
- 32:22Speaker 2: All right, I'm gonna like talk about this and probably
- 32:28Speaker 2: in very unflattering charms for myself.
- 32:31Speaker 3: However, when I was in the military.
- 32:34Speaker 2: They had a big event at a gentleman's club where
- 32:44Speaker 2: they invited gis to oil themselves down and wrestle strippers
- 32:51Speaker 2: and in front of all your friends, and it was
- 32:56Speaker 2: quite the atmosphere. And telling you, the gis lost all
- 33:02Speaker 2: the time, So get better than oil wrestling is. Hey,
- 33:09Speaker 2: it's a I guess it's a thing because I've been
- 33:12Speaker 2: to one of those, but yeah, it's uh, it was.
- 33:17Speaker 2: I did not partake in that myself. But I was
- 33:22Speaker 2: a willing spectator.
- 33:24Speaker 1: I can get you that, man, I get willing make
- 33:26Speaker 1: there the way they flip all the way, you never
- 33:28Speaker 1: know where they can flip your way too. You have
- 33:30Speaker 1: to use I'm having a lot of fun with the
- 33:32Speaker 1: oil part of this whole.
- 33:33Speaker 2: Yeah, and uh yeah, I mean because you have no leverage,
- 33:37Speaker 2: you can't really hold on to anything. It's like one
- 33:40Speaker 2: of those things you just have to get in a
- 33:42Speaker 2: bearg and pray for the best so.
- 33:47Speaker 1: You gets better than that. So certain people invented the
- 33:49Speaker 1: famous ice cream that stretches and doesn't know fast. All right,
- 33:53Speaker 1: see what your thoughts? The most stretches And.
- 33:57Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd be very leary about that because any ice
- 34:02Speaker 2: cream that doesn't melt fast, I think that would be
- 34:06Speaker 2: probably not very good for you. I mean, you know
- 34:14Speaker 2: they tell you all the time you shouldn't eat ice
- 34:16Speaker 2: cream anyway. But look, I just saw another article in
- 34:20Speaker 2: the New England Journal of Medicine where they were saying that,
- 34:23Speaker 2: you know, ice cream made from frozen yogurt is supposedly
- 34:30Speaker 2: more healthy than people thought, But ice cream that doesn't
- 34:34Speaker 2: melt probably has some kind of chemicals in it that
- 34:40Speaker 2: isn't conducive to your long term meal.
- 34:44Speaker 3: That's just a guess on my part. I'm not a doctor.
- 34:47Speaker 3: I didn't stay at a holiday and express last night.
- 34:51Speaker 1: Well it says stretches and doesn't help fast. Yeah, chemicals
- 34:55Speaker 1: are putting on that, that's for sure.
- 34:59Speaker 5: Of something like silly buddy, if it stretches like that.
- 35:07Speaker 3: You know.
- 35:08Speaker 2: The funny thing is, when I was a kid, even now,
- 35:12Speaker 2: when kids had plato, I love the smell of plato.
- 35:17Speaker 2: You know when some kids get played over their birthday,
- 35:20Speaker 2: I always grabbed.
- 35:20Speaker 3: The thing and take a big whiff of it. But no,
- 35:23Speaker 3: but I wouldn't eat it.
- 35:25Speaker 6: I mean, help me out. And I love ice cream.
- 35:31Speaker 2: Oh I love ice cream, But ice cream that doesn't melt.
- 35:34Speaker 2: I think I'll take a pass.
- 35:36Speaker 1: Well and stretch. All right, Turkey, you can find an
- 35:40Speaker 1: entire city built underground. Now. That one surprised me at all.
- 35:43Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they built.
- 35:48Speaker 2: They built over the top of cities. I've heard that,
- 35:53Speaker 2: I've seen pictures, but I've never been there. That's one
- 35:57Speaker 2: one country I've never been to. A really good things
- 36:01Speaker 2: about it. I know a lot of people that have
- 36:03Speaker 2: been there, but I would like to see where the
- 36:07Speaker 2: city is built.
- 36:07Speaker 3: Underground.
- 36:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean some of these things that I mentioned
- 36:10Speaker 1: earlier were far thest some of the stuff that we're
- 36:12Speaker 1: seeing out here. I'd like to see him in person.
- 36:14Speaker 1: That's why when I look at all these travel things
- 36:16Speaker 1: are going to be on our show, Steve, since you've
- 36:19Speaker 1: been all over the place, I just figured i'd take
- 36:21Speaker 1: these two and see what we can do with them.
- 36:23Speaker 1: All right, So Candy, you want anything you want to
- 36:25Speaker 1: add to that, and you will me keep flying through
- 36:26Speaker 1: we get supports to change.
- 36:29Speaker 5: Well, all I would say is if the whole city
- 36:31Speaker 5: is underground, it would be like a big bunker and
- 36:35Speaker 5: you would be more protected from some of the elements,
- 36:39Speaker 5: like you wouldn't have weather elements down there.
- 36:41Speaker 6: Really, it'd be very interesting. I don't know.
- 36:46Speaker 2: Yeah that's true, But I mean the vitamin d angle
- 36:54Speaker 2: about sunshine. You know that you'd be a little lacking there.
- 36:58Speaker 2: You have a bunch of pale looking people.
- 37:00Speaker 3: Let's say that.
- 37:03Speaker 1: Different than living up north Wind. Yeah all these years,
- 37:08Speaker 1: you'll get the vitamin kare. Yeah.
- 37:11Speaker 2: You know, in the middle of winter in New Hampshire,
- 37:13Speaker 2: I look like the belly of a founder.
- 37:16Speaker 1: So yeah, I know I'm with you. Those people that
- 37:18Speaker 1: come down and get sun tans, and they're white. They're white,
- 37:21Speaker 1: and so they get to where they want to be.
- 37:23Speaker 1: All right, So Turkish people eat breakfasts of twenty different
- 37:26Speaker 1: small stations, got twenty different Okay, I'm not a cook.
- 37:33Speaker 1: What do you think anybody have a comet or you
- 37:35Speaker 1: want me to read some of these? I just keep
- 37:37Speaker 1: moving through them.
- 37:38Speaker 3: I don't know about that one.
- 37:40Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't either, can't. Well, all right, let's go, Candy.
- 37:44Speaker 6: Yeah I don't. I don't know either, Go ahead, all right, all.
- 37:46Speaker 1: Right, let's keep going. Turkish people created the first no
- 37:49Speaker 1: coins in history. Candy, you're a banker.
- 37:55Speaker 6: I did not know that.
- 37:57Speaker 2: No, I didn't know that either. I thought, yeah, that
- 38:01Speaker 2: would have been someplace else. But that that's a good one.
- 38:07Speaker 2: I mean, I didn't know that that that's a good
- 38:10Speaker 2: that's a good tribute question right there.
- 38:12Speaker 1: See, we aim to educate an inform and exactly learnt
- 38:18Speaker 1: something new every day. Every Wednesday night at eight o'clock, people,
- 38:23Speaker 1: I will make sure I come up with stuff and
- 38:24Speaker 1: you don't learn anything I haven't done by job. All right,
- 38:27Speaker 1: sard this people once believed two of them were sacred flowers.
- 38:32Speaker 1: All right, Candy, I would.
- 38:36Speaker 5: I will say that they do come up in spring.
- 38:39Speaker 5: They're a sign of fresh beginning, beginnings, And.
- 38:45Speaker 6: I mean at least up in the north. Like down
- 38:47Speaker 6: here in.
- 38:48Speaker 5: Florida we don't see tulips, but up north you would,
- 38:51Speaker 5: and that would be one of the first signs of
- 38:53Speaker 5: spring that something is new when so I can I
- 38:58Speaker 5: can kind of see where that might be a symbol
- 39:00Speaker 5: of you know, wealth and uh, spiritual significance.
- 39:06Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 39:07Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like uh rebirths. You know, the world takes
- 39:12Speaker 2: a rebirth, uh, you know page out every spring.
- 39:17Speaker 3: Yeah, I buy that.
- 39:19Speaker 1: You know, hey, earl, if you can get in and
- 39:23Speaker 1: if you can get into seven, you know, you should
- 39:24Speaker 1: take a look at the show that we have with
- 39:26Speaker 1: the horse show, but the the uh nonprofit at seven
- 39:30Speaker 1: pm and now we have a troubleheader. Yeah. It is
- 39:33Speaker 1: pretty surreal though, And this with all these two of
- 39:36Speaker 1: all this yeah and Wednesday night. We like to keep
- 39:38Speaker 1: it different here. We start off of that one and
- 39:40Speaker 1: that became our recent ad. We have our show Steve,
- 39:43Speaker 1: and then we have the sports change. So I for
- 39:46Speaker 1: we've got some pretty good variety here. So if they
- 39:49Speaker 1: were sacred flowers, I go to another sacred topic. Hold.
- 39:52Speaker 1: In Turkey, all eye charms are seen everywhere for protection
- 39:58Speaker 1: and I repeat, charms, whatever they are, Katie.
- 40:06Speaker 6: I'm not sure what charms are.
- 40:12Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm drawing a blank on that one myself.
- 40:17Speaker 7: They have arms and twalsmen mostlyusly than the tzar, which
- 40:23Speaker 7: is an evil eye designed to protect against evil, malice
- 40:27Speaker 7: and bad luck.
- 40:31Speaker 3: That was like the gargoyles of medieval times.
- 40:36Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, everyone thought the gargoyles were evil, right,
- 40:41Speaker 2: and people in the modern world would wonder why you
- 40:45Speaker 2: know they they built all these evil ogres and you know,
- 40:49Speaker 2: gargoyles and whatnot. And it turns out that was to
- 40:54Speaker 2: protect humans from the bad stuff.
- 41:00Speaker 3: Thanks by that one. Hey, the Turks they got a
- 41:04Speaker 3: lot going on, right.
- 41:05Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well, don't worry. I'm not done you. I thanks.
- 41:07Speaker 1: I don't appreciate it because in Turkey there's a lake
- 41:09Speaker 1: full of flamingos. I like that. A lake full of flamingos.
- 41:14Speaker 1: People in Turkey, a lake full of flamingos.
- 41:19Speaker 3: How about that. That's another one that I didn't know about.
- 41:22Speaker 3: Chalk that one up.
- 41:23Speaker 2: That's a good one, Scott. I would have never thought
- 41:26Speaker 2: they had flamingos in Turkey.
- 41:28Speaker 1: I didn't either, that's all I thought. It really blew
- 41:30Speaker 1: me away a lot of these things.
- 41:34Speaker 5: It's called Lake Becauzz t u Z and each spring
- 41:39Speaker 5: thousands of greater flamingos gather there to breed in the shallow,
- 41:42Speaker 5: salty water.
- 41:45Speaker 6: So yeah, interesting, how about that?
- 41:49Speaker 1: Oh I got one more to go.
- 41:51Speaker 3: But Turkey, this is getting even better.
- 41:54Speaker 1: Oh, I got one more to go. So Turkish people
- 41:57Speaker 1: celebrate Children's Day is a national holiday.
- 42:00Speaker 3: I love them for doing that.
- 42:01Speaker 1: Ye know, all these things that you have, but now
- 42:03Speaker 1: I got Children's Day people a national holiday. I like
- 42:06Speaker 1: what they're doing there.
- 42:09Speaker 2: I mean, I pride myself on being a child ninety
- 42:14Speaker 2: of the time, so you know, we grow older, Scott,
- 42:19Speaker 2: but we don't grow up, So you know, I I
- 42:24Speaker 2: like that that they have a national holiday for Children's Day.
- 42:29Speaker 6: I really it's on to be okay.
- 42:31Speaker 5: It's on April twenty third, and it features parades, school performances,
- 42:37Speaker 5: and traditions where children symbolically take over government roles, including
- 42:42Speaker 5: the presidency.
- 42:44Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 42:45Speaker 2: I remember when we used to do that, like Student
- 42:48Speaker 2: Government Day in the United States. They got away from that,
- 42:52Speaker 2: and I like that. I mean, you know when I
- 42:55Speaker 2: was a kid, I wanted to be the mayor for
- 42:57Speaker 2: a day. You know, I don't know what I would
- 42:59Speaker 2: have done, but I just wanted to sit behind his desk.
- 43:03Speaker 1: You know, I got to give the children their respect.
- 43:08Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what, Turkey obviously got it right there.
- 43:10Speaker 1: So yeah, more we'll get more used to a lot
- 43:14Speaker 1: of what I throw out there today. You know, we've
- 43:17Speaker 1: taught politics and issues when we had to. I call
- 43:19Speaker 1: it more like a current events show, not so much politics. Obviously.
- 43:23Speaker 1: I didn't say anything political about what we did with
- 43:25Speaker 1: you talking about vending machine, and now we're talking about
- 43:28Speaker 1: everything that's good about Turkey, and we got to see
- 43:31Speaker 1: a lot and then we get to see an underground
- 43:34Speaker 1: city or whatever they call it, so unbelievable stuff. And yes,
- 43:38Speaker 1: we had a little revolutions that I cousin knew, England
- 43:40Speaker 1: revolution and the dangerous jobs. Well, this is a show
- 43:45Speaker 1: I hope everybody had an opportunity to learn a lot about.
- 43:48Speaker 1: So if that said, as we get ready to wrap up,
- 43:49Speaker 1: we get sports with cha top of the hour, Steve,
- 43:51Speaker 1: Why don't you please everybody now they get a hold

- 44:43Speaker 1: for a while. I didn't needed you to help me
- 44:44Speaker 1: pull it off and candy every now and then to
- 44:47Speaker 1: go out there and add a few little eyes and then.
- 44:50Speaker 1: But this Wednesday show was fun, and what we did
- 44:53Speaker 1: before the show was fun. So getting used to ready
- 44:55Speaker 1: for Molly Murphy who's on our network, because you did
- 44:58Speaker 1: a really really good job as well.
- 45:00Speaker 2: Well.
- 45:00Speaker 1: So we want interesting things in a row, and Wednesday
- 45:02Speaker 1: night is different, you know. Let they said Monday and
- 45:04Speaker 1: Tuesday are serious because you have baseball and you have football.
- 45:08Speaker 1: You got to get it much and as you can
- 45:10Speaker 1: there and then of course Thursday we have hockey and
- 45:12Speaker 1: soccer combined, and we have some great crews there and
- 45:16Speaker 1: forced to change afterwards. Here, we'll have a lot of
- 45:18Speaker 1: interesting stuff and I've revamped that crew quite a bit. So,
- 45:21Speaker 1: but this is the one where you just had some fun.
- 45:23Speaker 1: A couple of little one on ones. You and I
- 45:25Speaker 1: could come up with every awful wall think imaginable. And
- 45:28Speaker 1: we're going to incorporate only the big NBA because I
- 45:34Speaker 1: have to buy, I have to recruit some more basketball people.
- 45:38Speaker 1: But even Steve and I could talk about some of
- 45:39Speaker 1: these other ones. But the other people are good at
- 45:41Speaker 1: what they do. Some more power to them. It's all
- 45:44Speaker 1: about variant.
- 45:46Speaker 2: Before we go, Uh, ask me one more question, and
- 45:50Speaker 2: he said, what was your best drop zone at Ford Bragg. Well,
- 45:55Speaker 2: being that my family is from Sicily, uh Sicily drops On,
- 46:01Speaker 2: Sicily drops On was the biggest one.
- 46:04Speaker 3: It was the flattest one. It had the least amount
- 46:06Speaker 3: of obstacles on it.
- 46:08Speaker 2: And you know we were talking about Turkey right Well,
- 46:13Speaker 2: Turkey Istanbul used to be called Constantinople and at one point,
- 46:19Speaker 2: about a thousand years ago, it was the seat of
- 46:22Speaker 2: the Holy Roman Empire.
- 46:24Speaker 3: Well, the Holy Roman Empire had a.
- 46:30Speaker 2: The emperor, I should say, he had a personal bodyguard
- 46:35Speaker 2: of ten thousand vikings, and after the Moors took Sicily,
- 46:42Speaker 2: he sent the Varangian guard his vikings to Sicily. They
- 46:48Speaker 2: stayed there for several years. They reconquered the country, and
- 46:52Speaker 2: my DNA from that goes all the way back. Even
- 46:55Speaker 2: though I am Sicilian, I mean have art Viking and
- 46:59Speaker 2: that's where it comes from. So Turkey and Sicily all
- 47:03Speaker 2: blended in together.
- 47:05Speaker 1: So yeah, it worked out pretty well. All right, So Steve,
- 47:07Speaker 1: whut there? I don't if I ask you again, but
- 47:10Speaker 1: do it again anyway, everybody now they get a hold.
