Transcript
- 0:26Speaker 1: It is time to leave your worries outside and maybe
- 0:32Speaker 1: maybe a few family members and laugh with us inside
- 0:36Speaker 1: the Treehouse on the day before Thanksgiving, Wednesday, November twenty seven,
- 0:42Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. You are welcome. I'm Daniel Malley along
- 0:48Speaker 1: with Trey Trenholm and Jerry Caldwell on a very Turkey
- 0:54Speaker 1: edition of the Treehouse. And speaking of things Thanksgiving, one
- 1:01Speaker 1: of the great traditions of Thanksgiving in this country in
- 1:05Speaker 1: modern times is the Clash of the Titans. It's football
- 1:13Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving, which means that tomorrow at twelve thirty Texas time,
- 1:21Speaker 1: we will be subjected to the Detroit Lions playing the
- 1:25Speaker 1: Chicago Bears. And as if that's not enough to make
- 1:30Speaker 1: you throw up your sweet potatoes, then we all get
- 1:34Speaker 1: to witness our Dallas Cowboys, our being me and Trey,
- 1:39Speaker 1: big Cowboys fans, our Dallas Cowboys taking on the New
- 1:46Speaker 1: York Football Giants.
- 1:53Speaker 2: And sadly, I mean, what was always the crap game
- 1:58Speaker 2: was the Detroit game. Who is the best team, probably
- 2:01Speaker 2: the best team in the NFL.
- 2:02Speaker 1: Yeah, so from a records perspective, the Lions. The Lions
- 2:08Speaker 1: are ten and one. Let that sink in. Wow, The
- 2:15Speaker 1: Lions are ten and one, the Bears are four and seven,
- 2:18Speaker 1: so not exactly an electric divisional matchup. Chances are the
- 2:23Speaker 1: Lions will beat the Bears and no one will be surprised.
- 2:27Speaker 1: The only thing surprising in that game is how the
- 2:30Speaker 1: Bears have won four games at all. But then not
- 2:34Speaker 1: to be outdone the afternoon delight the Dallas Cowboys at
- 2:39Speaker 1: four and seven now versus the two and nine New
- 2:44Speaker 1: York Giants. Let me just say real quick, based on
- 2:48Speaker 1: the outcome of Sunday's game Cowboys and Commanders, if I
- 2:53Speaker 1: was a headline rider, it would have been Cowboys get
- 2:57Speaker 1: out offled by thirty four to twenty six, because that
- 3:03Speaker 1: was while while it was an entertaining fourth quarter, that
- 3:08Speaker 1: is a really bad football game.
- 3:13Speaker 2: My headline would have been Cowboys f up losing that.
- 3:17Speaker 1: That would have been a good one as well.
- 3:19Speaker 2: Because what a pointless win at this point, I mean.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Yeah, it really is. It needs to be the goal
- 3:25Speaker 1: of every true Cowboys fan is just to have such
- 3:27Speaker 1: a bad season. All you do is improve your draft
- 3:29Speaker 1: position by losing as many games as possible. Well, they
- 3:32Speaker 1: screwed that up on Sunday, and to beat the Commanders.
- 3:35Speaker 1: But because of that, it had me wondering, what are
- 3:39Speaker 1: the ticket prices like at AT and T Stadium in
- 3:45Speaker 1: Arlington for a Cowboys Giants because Terrey you mentioned to
- 3:49Speaker 1: us off the air that the ticket prices were really
- 3:53Speaker 1: low for that game. And I don't know if the
- 3:55Speaker 1: ticket prices went up at all. Because the Cowboys actually
- 3:59Speaker 1: won on Sunday, they.
- 4:02Speaker 2: Have gone up a bit, but let me the ask
- 4:05Speaker 2: has gone up a bit. They're still literally now because
- 4:09Speaker 2: the Thanksgiving game it was always the Red Kettle game,
- 4:14Speaker 2: Salvation Army, big halftime performance, huge seller, like what probably
- 4:19Speaker 2: they're besides opening game, probably the biggest selling game for
- 4:23Speaker 2: the Cowboys.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Yeah, so what are tickets for the Thanksgiving game Cowboys
- 4:28Speaker 1: versus Giants going for?
- 4:29Speaker 2: Well, you can get upper deck for fifty seven dollars.
- 4:35Speaker 1: An upper deck seat or an upper decker from the
- 4:37Speaker 1: Jones family.
- 4:39Speaker 2: Upper deck seat for as low as you know in
- 4:43Speaker 2: the fifties. You can get do the standing, you know,
- 4:45Speaker 2: the corral, which usually I think are eighty dollars tickets,
- 4:50Speaker 2: they're twenty one. Oh.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Is that the same as the party pass? I think
- 4:55Speaker 1: I don't know, Or is the corral like the outside
- 4:58Speaker 1: dying and party pass they let you inside, but then
- 5:00Speaker 1: I'll just sit down.
- 5:02Speaker 2: I honestly don't. It just says standing ticket for okay,
- 5:07Speaker 2: you know some of the lower level like prime seats
- 5:11Speaker 2: are going in the mid one hundreds now, like I said,
- 5:15Speaker 2: And it's when if you look at like I was
- 5:18Speaker 2: looking at a ticket seating app, and you know they
- 5:22Speaker 2: have like one color if there's tickets available, another color
- 5:26Speaker 2: every section in the stadium there are tickets available.
- 5:29Speaker 1: So good news.
- 5:31Speaker 2: Yeah, so I have a feeling day of there are
- 5:34Speaker 2: gonna be some bargains to be had.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Oh, get some good walk up seats.
- 5:40Speaker 2: Or it's gonna be very embarrassing.
- 5:43Speaker 1: So what you do then is after you here's what
- 5:47Speaker 1: you do when you take the wrapping off of your turkey,
- 5:54Speaker 1: save it. Save that and then you can wear it
- 5:58Speaker 1: and cut some eye holes to the game if you
- 6:00Speaker 1: decide to go. So, while the ticket prices are drastically
- 6:06Speaker 1: lower for the Thanksgiving Day game compared to what normal
- 6:09Speaker 1: ticket prices are when the Cowboys are winning, you still
- 6:12Speaker 1: got to pay to park, right. Are are those going
- 6:15Speaker 1: for any sort of a bargain or is that where
- 6:17Speaker 1: they're making up the difference.
- 6:20Speaker 2: I did not look at parking I.
- 6:22Speaker 1: Imagine there's still you know what, I bet they're still
- 6:26Speaker 1: going to find a way to you on the parking
- 6:29Speaker 1: that is the Cowboys way.
- 6:32Speaker 2: I mean, I think, yeah, I think the fu on
- 6:35Speaker 2: parking is just permanently built in. I I but I'm
- 6:40Speaker 2: gonna guess some of these tickets do come with parking.
- 6:42Speaker 1: I don't know, I've what do you think is cheaper
- 6:46Speaker 1: tickets for the Cowboys Giants game at the stadium? Or
- 6:49Speaker 1: stuffing your mom? I mean your mom's stuffing. Yeah, you
- 6:55Speaker 1: know what, I'm gonna let the first questions stand. I
- 6:57Speaker 1: think that's fair.
- 6:57Speaker 2: Still, that's it's just it's literally aws up.
- 7:07Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh, I mean it is comical looking at the
- 7:14Speaker 3: seating chart, like, without exaggerating, there are tickets available at
- 7:20Speaker 3: every section of that stadium.
- 7:22Speaker 1: That's not typically the case. No, even if it's the
- 7:27Speaker 1: visiting team's fans buying out seats, they're almost always sold
- 7:31Speaker 1: out or at least close to it.
- 7:33Speaker 2: Fifty on a normal.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Clear your throat, big guy, hear there's a respiratory illness
- 7:45Speaker 1: going around. But I us you and Jerry fighting through it.
- 7:49Speaker 2: What would you you know? Fifty yard line seats normal
- 7:53Speaker 2: when the Cowboys are doing well. What would you think they'd.
- 7:56Speaker 1: Go for m I'll say, don't want to blow your bed.
- 8:03Speaker 1: Fifty yard line at and T Stadium and the Cowboys
- 8:05Speaker 1: are doing well, I'll go four fifty. Huh. I don't know.
- 8:15Speaker 1: I've never paid to watch a game at that stadium.
- 8:17Speaker 1: I always I always got in for free with my
- 8:20Speaker 1: media badge.
- 8:21Speaker 2: Fifty yard line seats normally are a thousand plus. No, yeah,
- 8:30Speaker 2: I'm not paying that for a football game. And they're
- 8:36Speaker 2: they're sub four hundred.
- 8:39Speaker 1: There's sub four hundred right now, and they normally go
- 8:42Speaker 1: for well over one thousand.
- 8:43Speaker 2: Yeah. You know that those little dugouts like they have
- 8:47Speaker 2: now at the stadium, like where you're like literally.
- 8:50Speaker 1: You're actually below the field but you look up at Yeah, yeah, yeah, those.
- 8:54Speaker 2: Are those are usually the hottest ticket there. Like those
- 9:00Speaker 2: those like are they they're like sweets and they.
- 9:03Speaker 1: Either like sweets and they're really pretty on the inside
- 9:05Speaker 1: when you walk back underneath the stadium. I know because
- 9:07Speaker 1: I remember watching a game I watched, uh. I think
- 9:09Speaker 1: they still call it the Southwest Classic. I remember watching
- 9:13Speaker 1: a football game there with Greg Hill from a Texas
- 9:16Speaker 1: A and M Fame. It was the A and M
- 9:19Speaker 1: Arkansas football game. And you're right, those seats they are
- 9:22Speaker 1: hot seats. But to me, they're hot just because you're
- 9:26Speaker 1: your eyes are at the level of players butts, which
- 9:29Speaker 1: means if they fart, You're right, Trey, it's pretty hot.
- 9:35Speaker 1: So if you want to smell, if you want to
- 9:38Speaker 1: smell what the players were eating for Thanksgiving, go get
- 9:42Speaker 1: those seats.
- 9:44Speaker 2: Yeah, those are Those are typically very very expensive. They're
- 9:48Speaker 2: they're like a sweet I I can't imagine. I have
- 9:51Speaker 2: never been in them, but there's nothing about that seating
- 9:54Speaker 2: level that looks appealing because your your line of sight
- 9:57Speaker 2: is crap.
- 9:58Speaker 1: It's ass. Yeah, you're gonna see ass, you're gonna smell ass.
- 10:03Speaker 1: So those those are the ass seats at the at
- 10:05Speaker 1: the stadium. Keep that in mind, would you, when you're
- 10:07Speaker 1: perusing the tickets at AT and T Stadium. And I
- 10:11Speaker 1: also think that that's probably like, was that the when
- 10:13Speaker 1: they were designing the stadium, whoever built it, designed it,
- 10:16Speaker 1: did they say, and they were gonna have these seats
- 10:18Speaker 1: that are kind of low. So in case you have
- 10:19Speaker 1: people all they want to do is stare at butts,
- 10:21Speaker 1: these are the seats for them.
- 10:25Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so, because I think also with those
- 10:27Speaker 2: seats you also get I think they come with regular
- 10:32Speaker 2: seats too, and I think you can rotate people down
- 10:34Speaker 2: there or whatever. But you know, but people love them.
- 10:37Speaker 2: It's a big deal.
- 10:38Speaker 1: You get the sights, the sounds, and of course the
- 10:42Speaker 1: smells of at and just so happy Thanksgiving.
- 10:45Speaker 2: If you're going to the game.

- 12:38Speaker 1: Back inside the Treehouse now, I'm Daniel Malling along with
- 12:41Speaker 1: Trey Trendholm and Jerry called well, Uh roj Sharma out
- 12:44Speaker 1: sick this week and uh there's a lot of sickness
- 12:48Speaker 1: going around because parents are spellbound by Netflix. And I
- 12:56Speaker 1: mean that in a bad way.
- 12:57Speaker 5: Uh.
- 12:57Speaker 1: There's a new movie out on Netflix called Spellbound. It's
- 13:01Speaker 1: the new animated film. It's immediately claimed a place at
- 13:04Speaker 1: the top of the Netflix streamer's global movie chart, but
- 13:10Speaker 1: it's taken a big hit in its review scores after
- 13:12Speaker 1: sparking controversy over its depictions of divorce. So this is
- 13:18Speaker 1: an animated movie on Netflix. It's called Spellbound, and some
- 13:22Speaker 1: parents on Rotten Tomatoes are displeased with its depictions of divorce.
- 13:28Speaker 1: The family movie has become the subject of many complaints
- 13:32Speaker 1: from angry parents who are not happy with the film's
- 13:34Speaker 1: message that divorce is okay. Well, the movie's been praised
- 13:39Speaker 1: for its vibrant animation and star studded voice cast, which
- 13:42Speaker 1: includes Rachel Ziegler, Javier bardem Nicole Kidman John Lithgow. A
- 13:47Speaker 1: significant number of reviews on Rotten Tomatoes have slammed the
- 13:51Speaker 1: movie for having what they believe are inappropriate themes for
- 13:54Speaker 1: children to be subjected to at a young age, unlike
- 13:59Speaker 1: the children's subjective to divorce at a young age. These
- 14:01Speaker 1: parents just don't like their kids seeing it in a cartoon.
- 14:04Speaker 1: Spellbound tells the story of elienn Or Eleon or I
- 14:09Speaker 1: Don't Know, a young princess voiced by Rachel Ziegler, who
- 14:13Speaker 1: embarks on a magical adventure to save her kingdom of
- 14:15Speaker 1: Lumbria after her parents are transformed into monsters. By a
- 14:19Speaker 1: mysterious spell, Ellien must uncover the truth behind the curse
- 14:24Speaker 1: while handling her own personal growth. As these movies demand.
- 14:28Speaker 1: With music by acclaimed composer Alan Mankin and lyricist Glenn Slater,
- 14:32Speaker 1: Spellbound promised to be a callback to several Disney movies
- 14:35Speaker 1: of the past. However, there are several reviewers who have
- 14:40Speaker 1: slammed the movie for normalizing the subject of divorce, which
- 14:44Speaker 1: they believe is not something that should be promoted as
- 14:47Speaker 1: being all right for young children. One review by Kelly
- 14:51Speaker 1: G said, what looks like a cute animated movie about
- 14:54Speaker 1: a young girl trying to save her parents who've been
- 14:56Speaker 1: turned into monsters is just a moronic ploy to help
- 14:59Speaker 1: normal divorce to children. Don't normalize divorce, it is not normal.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Another urged parents to watch the movie first before allowing
- 15:09Speaker 1: their children to see it, by saying, I strongly not
- 15:12Speaker 1: recommend watching this movie with kids. Seriously all caps, as
- 15:16Speaker 1: a parent, watched the movie first before showing it to
- 15:18Speaker 1: your child, and the side if your child should hear
- 15:20Speaker 1: about divorces at their age from a movie for children,
- 15:24Speaker 1: or prepare yourself for questions like mommy, daddy, will you
- 15:28Speaker 1: leave mother to this movie normalizes divorce. Divorce is already
- 15:35Speaker 1: normal to kids. I think it's time the animated films
- 15:38Speaker 1: catch up. I don't think it's necessarily bad that they divorce,
- 15:44Speaker 1: that a cartoon depicts things that happen in real life.
- 15:47Speaker 1: I do find it unfortunate that parents are mad that
- 15:50Speaker 1: a cartoon is making them talk to their children about
- 15:52Speaker 1: things that they don't want to talk to them about, or.
- 15:56Speaker 2: That aren't a lot of you know, animated stuff, fairy tales,
- 16:00Speaker 2: anything based on like the kid being an orphan. Yeah.
- 16:03Speaker 1: So, I mean this starts out happier than the majority
- 16:05Speaker 1: of Disney movies have started out in its history, at
- 16:08Speaker 1: least this way, both parents are alive exactly. Bamby started
- 16:13Speaker 1: out mom dead. That was the formula for years. It
- 16:17Speaker 1: was like, okay, how did the movie start? Well, you
- 16:19Speaker 1: gotta kill a parent and then they go on the
- 16:21Speaker 1: hero's journey and then something happens with the other parent
- 16:24Speaker 1: and King Yan King Dad dies, so he's gotta go
- 16:27Speaker 1: save mom. A's all of them, Peter, what happens to Dumbo?
- 16:32Speaker 1: Oh my god, poor Jesus Christ, Dumbo. I think people
- 16:37Speaker 1: need to take I'm sorry, but I got to say
- 16:39Speaker 1: it some of these parents gotta take a chill pill.
- 16:41Speaker 2: Well, and I believe the divorce rate is still like
- 16:44Speaker 2: fifty one percent, so it is in fact normal.
- 16:49Speaker 1: It is normal. But the thing is, these angry Rotten
- 16:52Speaker 1: Tomatoes reviewers don't like having to talk to their children
- 16:56Speaker 1: about difficult subjects unless they have to do it in
- 16:59Speaker 1: real life. It just makes me so mad. I can't
- 17:03Speaker 1: stand it when people do this. It's like they shouldn't
- 17:06Speaker 1: learn about this. It's it's normalizing divorce. They shouldn't be
- 17:10Speaker 1: hearing about this. Blah blah blah blah blah. When we
- 17:12Speaker 1: just brought it up that other animated films are killing
- 17:18Speaker 1: off parents left and right. At least they're alive to
- 17:20Speaker 1: start this film. I don't know how it ends, but
- 17:23Speaker 1: you know, at least starts with at least a little
- 17:26Speaker 1: bit hope.
- 17:27Speaker 2: And are you passionate about this because you're like, at
- 17:29Speaker 2: least they had parents.
- 17:32Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's true. Coming from someone that didn't have
- 17:37Speaker 1: parents for the first three months of his life, I
- 17:40Speaker 1: think this people should shut up be happy this kid
- 17:44Speaker 1: has parents at all. I mean, if this was a movie,
- 17:49Speaker 1: if this was a Disney movie about my childhood, it
- 17:51Speaker 1: had been really really sad. In fact, it still kind
- 17:57Speaker 1: of is. I just I just hate it when some
- 18:01Speaker 1: parents get all up in arms because they're forced to
- 18:04Speaker 1: have difficult conversations with their kids. Well, here's the thing.
- 18:07Speaker 1: You don't have to have difficult conversations with your kids
- 18:10Speaker 1: if you stop letting them watch TV all by themselves
- 18:14Speaker 1: while you go do whatever else. Stop planting your kid
- 18:16Speaker 1: in front of a TV and letting the TV raise
- 18:18Speaker 1: your children, especially if you're going to be that pissed
- 18:23Speaker 1: off about it.
- 18:25Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean, in my mind, of all the
- 18:28Speaker 2: things kids face today, I mean, and the fact that
- 18:31Speaker 2: they have access to the Internet and way too much
- 18:35Speaker 2: information for generally for their age, divorce is on the
- 18:39Speaker 2: lighter side of things. It really is.
- 18:41Speaker 1: I mean, what happened. I mean, imagine if this movie
- 18:44Speaker 1: started out like it's still called Spellbound, but it started
- 18:47Speaker 1: out with her finding dad's hidden tab on his computer
- 18:53Speaker 1: and maybe that's the reason for the divorce, And then
- 18:59Speaker 1: you know why those rotten tomatoes parents would be so
- 19:01Speaker 1: mad because now the kids know how to find their
- 19:03Speaker 1: secret hidden tabs. That would be some serious review, Bobby. Plus,
- 19:14Speaker 1: also imagine how awkward it's gonna be if they find
- 19:16Speaker 1: out that Dad secretly into all that family stuff, the
- 19:24Speaker 1: step siblings. Never mind, you know what I mean.
- 19:28Speaker 2: I thought you were gonna go with pegging.
- 19:33Speaker 1: All right. I don't think any of us are ready
- 19:35Speaker 1: for animated pegging.

- 20:40Speaker 1: time for Turkey, as the bird gets pulled out of
- 20:44Speaker 1: the oven. How to survive a nuclear attack. According to FEMA,
- 20:51Speaker 1: famous timing couldn't be better. Uh, And I mean that sincerely,
- 20:58Speaker 1: because as the specter of World War three looms with
- 21:02Speaker 1: tensions rising, FEMA has stepped in with a guide to
- 21:06Speaker 1: surviving a nuclear attack. It's actually kind of updated from
- 21:09Speaker 1: the uh just basically stick your head between your knees
- 21:12Speaker 1: and kiss you're asked goodbye type stuff from the sixties. No,
- 21:18Speaker 1: this actually signals the grim possibility as the war in
- 21:21Speaker 1: Ukraine intensifies, Middle Eastern conflicts heat up. FEMA's instructions echo
- 21:26Speaker 1: the bygone Cold War era, offering a modernized set of
- 21:29Speaker 1: protocols for Americans to safeguard their families against the destructive
- 21:33Speaker 1: power of a nuclear explosion. It's underscored by a newly
- 21:37Speaker 1: released map indicating which regions would be safest in the
- 21:40Speaker 1: event of an escalation by putin alongside another mapping out
- 21:44Speaker 1: the devastating effects on the United Kingdom should nuclear missiles
- 21:47Speaker 1: be launched. FEMA's stark advice is outlined in their latest release.
- 21:52Speaker 1: Nuclear explosions can cause significant damage and casualties from blast,
- 21:56Speaker 1: heat and radiation, but you can keep your family safe
- 22:00Speaker 1: by knowing what to do and being prepared if it occurs,
- 22:04Speaker 1: and then, of course they present it as fundamental survival resource.
- 22:08Speaker 1: FEMA further explained that nuclear weapons could range vastly in
- 22:12Speaker 1: size from small portable devices to missiles, emphasizing the unpredictability
- 22:16Speaker 1: of such attacks. The peril of nuclear explosions is not
- 22:22Speaker 1: just the initial bright flash, blindness or the ensuing blast
- 22:25Speaker 1: wave oh no, which can wreak havoc on people and
- 22:29Speaker 1: structures miles away, but post explosion radiation threatens cellular injury
- 22:34Speaker 1: and sickness, while the thermal energy promises widespread burns and
- 22:38Speaker 1: property destruction. So I'm sure you're curious. What does femus
- 22:43Speaker 1: suggest if you're about to be blown up by a
- 22:47Speaker 1: nuclear war? First off, prepare, Identify shelter locations while you commute.
- 22:57Speaker 1: Identify appropriate shelters to seek in the event of a
- 22:59Speaker 1: day nation. Outdoor areas, vehicles and mobile homes do not
- 23:03Speaker 1: provide adequate shelter. They want you to go inside. Okay,
- 23:10Speaker 1: some of the places they recommend inside would be the
- 23:14Speaker 1: nearest building. That's to avoid radiation, brick or concrete are best.
- 23:20Speaker 1: Remove any contaminated clothing, and wipe or wash unprotected skin.
- 23:24Speaker 1: If you're outside after the fallout arrived, go to the
- 23:27Speaker 1: basement or middle of the building and stay away from
- 23:29Speaker 1: the outer walls and roof. Then stay inside for twenty
- 23:32Speaker 1: four hours. On less local authorities provide other instructions. So
- 23:36Speaker 1: this is all assuming you've survived the initial blast and
- 23:39Speaker 1: the blindness and the fire and you know, the judgment
- 23:43Speaker 1: day incineration type stuff. Go inside, sorry, have a bath. Yeah,
- 23:51Speaker 1: go inside, draw bath, Maybe throw some some less radiating bubbles.
- 23:57Speaker 2: Yeah, contaminated mm hmm.
- 24:02Speaker 1: As soon as you get into the tub your skin
- 24:04Speaker 1: falls off. Yeah. Oh man, but uh, famous femis giving
- 24:10Speaker 1: you hope. Man, if that happens, they're giving you hope
- 24:13Speaker 1: and giving you more tips to follow.
- 24:14Speaker 2: And uh do they address e MPs.
- 24:18Speaker 1: Uh, they do a little bit. I'm glad you brought
- 24:19Speaker 1: that up. Let's see. Uh where is the e MP section? Oh,
- 24:29Speaker 1: come on, I just saw it. Give me a second,
- 24:31Speaker 1: I'm gonna find it. Get inside, do this, do that?
- 24:35Speaker 2: And oh yeah.
- 24:37Speaker 1: An additional threat is an electromagnetic pulse capable of crippling
- 24:41Speaker 1: electronics far beyond the blasts heart. So that's really all
- 24:46Speaker 1: they really say about the.
- 24:47Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean this is yes, the obviously the detonation
- 24:53Speaker 2: bad hurt a lot of people, But I mean we're
- 24:56Speaker 2: a society that when the signal lights go out, everything
- 24:59Speaker 2: falls part. Now imagine with an EMP going off at
- 25:02Speaker 2: everyone's electronics are bad.
- 25:06Speaker 1: It's it's apocalyptic, it really is. Everyone's gonna turn into
- 25:10Speaker 1: mad Max. But instead of us looking for gasoline, we're
- 25:13Speaker 1: all gonna be looking for a Wi Fi stick. That's
- 25:20Speaker 1: just sad.

- 26:26Speaker 1: We are back inside the Treehouse now the day before Thanksgiving,
- 26:29Speaker 1: and there's a lot of travel that's going to happen
- 26:32Speaker 1: today and more traveling, it's going to happen throughout the weekend.
- 26:35Speaker 1: It is one of the busiest travel times of the year.
- 26:39Speaker 1: And perhaps you're going to be traveling via via air,
- 26:44Speaker 1: maybe you're taking American Airlines somewhere. Well, American Airlines, American
- 26:48Speaker 1: Airlines is making waves lately, in a good way, not
- 26:51Speaker 1: because they fell into the ocean. Good waves. Actually, Number one,
- 26:55Speaker 1: we first told you about gate lice a while back.
- 26:59Speaker 1: Gate lice is the term that's been given to the
- 27:01Speaker 1: people that try to board a flight before it's their turn.
- 27:06Speaker 1: So like, if you're on an American flight and you're
- 27:08Speaker 1: say group four, you're going to board group four, but
- 27:12Speaker 1: there's other people that are group seven. Well, what happens
- 27:15Speaker 1: is the gate lice, or what sometimes I refer to
- 27:19Speaker 1: as those in front of me, will cut the line
- 27:24Speaker 1: and get into your group four seating even though their
- 27:27Speaker 1: boardings not till group seven. They are known as gate liights,
- 27:30Speaker 1: and American Airlines rolled out a pilot program pun intended
- 27:34Speaker 1: two curb gate lice figuratively, not literally, although I'd love
- 27:40Speaker 1: to see them curbs and line cutters. I think it'd
- 27:42Speaker 1: be awesome just stomp on the back of their head,
- 27:44Speaker 1: run on a curb. Anyway, I'm a little violent today.
- 27:46Speaker 1: I'm getting it all out before breaking bread with family
- 27:50Speaker 1: and stuff. So they rolled out this program where an
- 27:54Speaker 1: alert would happened at the gate if you were trying
- 27:57Speaker 1: to board at the wrong time and cut the line,
- 28:00Speaker 1: and then the gate agent would politely ask you to
- 28:02Speaker 1: step out of line. You're trying to be gate license.
- 28:06Speaker 1: The program has done well so far, so well that
- 28:08Speaker 1: they decided to expand it from the three airports that
- 28:12Speaker 1: they were testing it in to over one one hundred
- 28:14Speaker 1: airports around the country. So that's a win for all
- 28:20Speaker 1: of us that paid attention in kindergarten and learned to
- 28:25Speaker 1: take turns and how not to cut in line, which
- 28:29Speaker 1: a lot of us have just eschewed an adulthood. The
- 28:32Speaker 1: other thing is this, if you're one of those crazy
- 28:36Speaker 1: people that tries to open up a door or a
- 28:38Speaker 1: hatch during a flight passengers on American Airlines, well they're
- 28:42Speaker 1: not going around. They're not going to let you do it.
- 28:44Speaker 1: Because on a recent flight to Dallas on American Airlines,
- 28:48Speaker 1: a group of passengers had to hold down and duct
- 28:51Speaker 1: tape a guy who was trying to open the door
- 28:54Speaker 1: of the plane mid flight. This is one of the
- 28:57Speaker 1: passengers talking about restraining this dude.
- 29:03Speaker 6: There's no time. He was two feet from the door.
- 29:07Speaker 6: It was just chaos. He was going for the door,
- 29:09Speaker 6: and so I just grabbed the guy from behind and
- 29:13Speaker 6: kept him from pulling the thing on the door. You know,
- 29:16Speaker 6: we were on our knees holding him down.
- 29:20Speaker 1: Remember the movie Airplane, mh Remember when everybody on the
- 29:25Speaker 1: plane was lined up to just slap the ever living
- 29:30Speaker 1: out of that one passenger. If I was one of
- 29:34Speaker 1: the passengers on this flight restraining the man trying to
- 29:38Speaker 1: open up the emergency hatch, that's what it would look like.
- 29:42Speaker 1: I would hold him down. Or in this case, if
- 29:45Speaker 1: they have some duct tape on board, which seems to
- 29:47Speaker 1: be standard now, duct tape is asked to the chair
- 29:50Speaker 1: and then everyone on board gets to line up and
- 29:53Speaker 1: take a shot. I think that seems fair. I think
- 29:56Speaker 1: that sounds like fun. It's some good old fashioned in
- 29:59Speaker 1: flight and entertainment that even Spirit Airlines couldn't charge for.
- 30:03Speaker 1: Although if they want to got a bankruptcy, that would
- 30:04Speaker 1: be one angle.
- 30:07Speaker 2: I just can't. You're right, hey, it does seem like
- 30:10Speaker 2: every flight you hear about now does have duct tape?
- 30:12Speaker 2: Which is.
- 30:14Speaker 1: They all used to have peanuts, but because if some
- 30:18Speaker 1: I don't know tholes peanut allergy, we can't have peanuts
- 30:21Speaker 1: on planes anymore. But apparently duct tape is a thing.
- 30:24Speaker 1: I guess that's part of the security protocol on board,
- 30:29Speaker 1: is just to make sure you've always got to roll
- 30:30Speaker 1: a duct tape next to the you know, the the
- 30:33Speaker 1: life preservers and the unlikely event of a water landing,
- 30:37Speaker 1: things falling off the airplane. Yeah, but yah, yeah, yeah,
- 30:42Speaker 1: and yeah, just imagine one of the flight attendants crawling
- 30:44Speaker 1: out onto the wing mid flight and just duct taping it. Yeah,
- 30:47Speaker 1: you're right. Duct tape seems to be a standard thing
- 30:49Speaker 1: on flights.
- 30:50Speaker 2: Now, is that? Did we replace air marshals with a
- 30:53Speaker 2: duct tape?
- 30:54Speaker 1: Probably we just didn't tell anybody, which was smart. That
- 30:59Speaker 1: had to be pretty hard on cut down day, like
- 31:02Speaker 1: when the layoffs hit and they got to tell a
- 31:04Speaker 1: bunch of the federal air marshals all right, look, we're
- 31:08Speaker 1: going to do some cutbacks, so we're have to lay
- 31:10Speaker 1: you off and instead of having you on flights, we're
- 31:13Speaker 1: just going to replace you with duct tape. That's got
- 31:16Speaker 1: a sting not as bad if you're one of the
- 31:19Speaker 1: passengers who's duct taped to a chair and the line
- 31:21Speaker 1: of passenger other passengers are ready to take their shots.
- 31:27Speaker 2: I feel like in this day and age, you really
- 31:29Speaker 2: have had to have lost your ever love and mind
- 31:31Speaker 2: to do anything on a plane.
- 31:33Speaker 1: H Yeah. I think it's almost like it needs to
- 31:36Speaker 1: be an automatic like fifty one to fifty psychological hold
- 31:40Speaker 1: if you do anything to interrupt a flight, despite the
- 31:43Speaker 1: myriad instructions that you were given, if you in any
- 31:48Speaker 1: way molest this flight plane or people on board, not
- 31:52Speaker 1: only are you going to get duct taped to your
- 31:55Speaker 1: seat and then over and over and over again by
- 32:00Speaker 1: everybody on board, you're also going straight to the looney
- 32:04Speaker 1: bin afterwards. I'd also be okay with having an emergency
- 32:09Speaker 1: hatch that they can just drap a parachute to your
- 32:12Speaker 1: ass and just drop you wherever you are.
- 32:14Speaker 2: I'll screw the parachute.
- 32:26Speaker 1: Drinks for everybody, because we're all accomplices now.
- 32:33Speaker 2: Unlesson Spirit.
- 32:36Speaker 1: Yeah, they're gonna charge extra for that.
- 32:38Speaker 2: Yeah, you're.

- 39:23Speaker 1: I hope you have a great Thanksgiving, a great Turkey day.
- 39:27Speaker 1: I want you to keep I want you to keep
- 39:29Speaker 1: something in mind as you're around the table, hopefully with
- 39:33Speaker 1: people you enjoy and you need some interesting table conversation.
- 39:39Speaker 1: Here's one for you. Put your fork down, actually know what,
- 39:45Speaker 1: keep your fork up. Just kind of hold it up.
- 39:47Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it with a pen right now, but
- 39:48Speaker 1: just kind of hold it up. Maybe we'll have like
- 39:51Speaker 1: a little piece of turkey on the end of it.
- 39:52Speaker 7: And it's kind of like you start to eat it,
- 39:54Speaker 7: and you take it iron out and you hold it up.
- 39:57Speaker 7: It's kind of half nod on, and you ask everybody
- 40:00Speaker 7: at the table, hey, did you hear that science may
- 40:05Speaker 7: have just discovered ghosts? And then just put the fork
- 40:09Speaker 7: back of your mouth beneath the piece of turkey and
- 40:11Speaker 7: just go back to eating and just see, just see,
- 40:13Speaker 7: just see what sort of a conversation that spurns.
- 40:16Speaker 1: Because it's happened. It has absolutely happened. All the fears, Okay,
- 40:23Speaker 1: maybe not all the fears, but all the tinkering and
- 40:26Speaker 1: meddling that physicists had been doing at CERN in Switzerland,
- 40:31Speaker 1: the big you know, I don't even know what the
- 40:34Speaker 1: hell it is, but the particle particle collider. There you go,
- 40:37Speaker 1: the particle collider that everyone was worried about years ago
- 40:40Speaker 1: when they turned it on would actually form a black
- 40:42Speaker 1: hole and eat our solar system in an instant. Well,
- 40:46Speaker 1: that didn't happen. So the worst of your concerns or
- 40:49Speaker 1: the worst of our imaginations has not come true. But
- 40:51Speaker 1: something else terrifying has been discovered at CERN in Switzerland.
- 40:56Speaker 1: Are you ready? Here we go? According to scientists at CERN,
- 41:01Speaker 1: a mysterious entity was detected inside their particle collider. Physicists
- 41:06Speaker 1: claim they have captured and calculated the characteristics of a
- 41:10Speaker 1: ghost like structure, an invisible entity that can alter the
- 41:15Speaker 1: paths of particles. Another way to look at it, or
- 41:19Speaker 1: another way to say it is scientists at CERN have
- 41:23Speaker 1: revealed the discovery of a four D phantom in their
- 41:27Speaker 1: super proton syncotron. So science has discovered ghosts, or more specifically,
- 41:38Speaker 1: science was playing around. All these physicists in Switzerland were
- 41:42Speaker 1: playing around drinking some spiked hot chocolate at the CERN
- 41:46Speaker 1: SuperCollider and what did they find? A goddamn phantom?
- 41:53Speaker 2: Or they've opened up a fourth dimension to hell.
- 42:00Speaker 1: And here I was thinking I was the glass half
- 42:01Speaker 1: full guy.
- 42:05Speaker 2: And I'm sorry though, Dan, But you know, if you're
- 42:07Speaker 2: at a large Thanksgiving gathering, you know, at the table,
- 42:12Speaker 2: a whole lot of people, the appropriate subject will go,
- 42:16Speaker 2: you know, take your I agree with the average fork,
- 42:18Speaker 2: a little piece of turkey on it, go So who'd
- 42:22Speaker 2: you vote for? Take a bite, walk away?
- 42:31Speaker 1: Yeah that I believe that just about do it. Yeah,
- 42:36Speaker 1: I think you can chew on that fork and a
- 42:40Speaker 1: little piece of meat and then just drop that bomb.
- 42:49Speaker 1: Then watch it from the street.
- 42:51Speaker 2: Drop the fork on the table.
