Latest / Wicked Radio with Bill Adams / 11-3: Aviation Experts vs. Internet Idiots. What Really Caused That Horrific FL Plane Crash?
Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: I'm always the guy on here telling you you should
- 0:05Speaker 1: question the experts. You should question everything. Questions are the
- 0:07Speaker 1: answer to everything, you know? And it wasn't that long
- 0:10Speaker 1: ago we weren't allowed to ask questions about anything in
- 0:12Speaker 1: the news, and you should. But when it comes to
- 0:15Speaker 1: your takeaway and who you're going to believe, and when
- 0:17Speaker 1: something like a massive news story like that horrific Florida
- 0:21Speaker 1: plane crash that happened over the weekend, just on Sunday,
- 0:23Speaker 1: when that happens, yes, ask questions. But your takeaway at
- 0:28Speaker 1: the end of the day, there's a group of people who,
- 0:32Speaker 1: And I've interviewed plenty of them over the years that
- 0:34Speaker 1: have a vested interest in actually not coming up with
- 0:37Speaker 1: stupid conspiracy theories. Those are aviation experts. They're a job,
- 0:42Speaker 1: and their reputations are based on getting the facts and
- 0:45Speaker 1: finding out what actually really happened. Because there's too much
- 0:47Speaker 1: on the line. Millions of Americans fly every single day,
- 0:50Speaker 1: whether it's commercial or private or whatever it is. So
- 0:53Speaker 1: when it comes to something like that horrific Sunday afternoon
- 0:57Speaker 1: plane crash that happened, by the way, right near me,
- 1:01Speaker 1: I live here. More on that in a second. Listen
- 1:05Speaker 1: to the people that have a vested interest in telling
- 1:08Speaker 1: you the truth. It's fine to ask questions. We all
- 1:10Speaker 1: have questions. But not these internet idiots that clearly, clear
- 1:16Speaker 1: as day, are coming up with their stupid conspiracy theories
- 1:20Speaker 1: for clicks. And it's so obvious to see. And we're
- 1:23Speaker 1: in a weird thing. And it's a weird position for
- 1:24Speaker 1: me to be in because I'm right there with you
- 1:27Speaker 1: to question everything. But going so far as to come
- 1:29Speaker 1: up with intentional theories stupid theories based on absolutely nothing
- 1:35Speaker 1: just to throw people off when there was a tragedy
- 1:37Speaker 1: like this where nine people died. That's so gross. What
- 1:40Speaker 1: really happened? What are these real experts who are telling
- 1:43Speaker 1: you the truth saying? Let's read through the fake news.
- 1:45Speaker 1: And sometimes fake news are these conspiracy theories, guys, versus
- 1:50Speaker 1: what these morons. Within this, I'll give you the four grossest, dumbest,
- 1:56Speaker 1: stupidest conspiracy theories based on nothing about this plane crash
- 2:00Speaker 1: that I've actually heard so far. and what the NASA
- 2:02Speaker 1: administrator is saying about it. It's just unbelievable. And it
- 2:05Speaker 1: wouldn't have taken so much effort and work to look
- 2:08Speaker 1: into what's really going on here. I live here. I
- 2:11Speaker 1: am here to tell you that what we're going through
- 2:12Speaker 1: right now, and this is just a couple of days
- 2:15Speaker 1: away from this, we're going through some of the weirdest
- 2:18Speaker 1: weather I have ever seen in my life outside of
- 2:21Speaker 1: a hurricane season. Squally weather, record flooding, flash flooding, bizarre weather.
- 2:28Speaker 1: wind and storm cells that are happening this is November
- 2:30Speaker 1: this doesn't usually happen okay do you think it would
- 2:34Speaker 1: have taken that much effort for all these idiots on
- 2:37Speaker 1: TikTok or wherever to actually say huh before I come
- 2:40Speaker 1: up with some ridiculous stupid theory that just scares people
- 2:44Speaker 1: even more you think maybe I would look at the
- 2:46Speaker 1: weather that's going on in Palm Beach County Florida before
- 2:49Speaker 1: I came up with something stupid like that you would
- 2:50Speaker 1: think right and that's the obvious telling how you know
- 2:53Speaker 1: somebody's saying something just for clicks let's get to the
- 2:55Speaker 1: real news of what they're saying Because I can tell you,
- 2:58Speaker 1: some of this is so stupid. Anyway, let's get to it.
- 3:01Speaker 1: We have plenty of time. Tomorrow we can talk about
- 3:02Speaker 1: the midterms, where the polls, were they right, were they wrong,
- 3:05Speaker 1: all that other stuff. We can't go any further. A
- 3:08Speaker 1: couple of days away from this horrific plane crash, right
- 3:11Speaker 1: near me in South Florida, without actually kind of debunking
- 3:15Speaker 1: a lot of the stupid theories that are out there.
- 3:16Speaker 1: Because it needs to be said, it really does. It
- 3:19Speaker 1: is election day, by the way, so be safe. Get
- 3:21Speaker 1: out there and vote. And we'll talk about those results tomorrow.
- 3:23Speaker 1: But let's get through this plane crash first and find
- 3:25Speaker 1: out who's full of crap and who's not. Thanks for
- 3:28Speaker 1: finding me. Wicked Radio livestream, 8 a.m.-ish Eastern Time, Monday
- 3:30Speaker 1: through Friday on X and YouTube and Facebook. You're most
- 3:33Speaker 1: likely watching, listening on the replay or the audio podcast.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Thanks for being here, as always. Just a little recap.
- 3:39Speaker 1: It was Sunday afternoon, and you've probably seen this. It
- 3:42Speaker 1: was top story all the way through until today, until
- 3:45Speaker 1: the midterms actually happened on election day.
- 3:48Speaker 2: Unbelievable.
- 3:49Speaker 1: Unbelievable footage. Everybody's got dash cams and cell phones everywhere now.
- 3:54Speaker 1: And this was from the rear dash cam some driver
- 3:58Speaker 1: had driving through this area here. And I'll describe this
- 4:00Speaker 1: area because I know it so well here in just
- 4:02Speaker 1: a second. But you've probably seen this already. It's just...
- 4:05Speaker 1: What in the... Guy's honest reaction. Most people said the
- 4:12Speaker 1: exact same thing. What the was that? And that leads
- 4:16Speaker 1: us to the conspiracy theories on exactly what that was.
- 4:19Speaker 1: Let me describe this area before I go into the
- 4:21Speaker 1: weather again, because the weather plays such a part of
- 4:23Speaker 1: what we're going through right now and what this would
- 4:25Speaker 1: have been and how easy it would have been to
- 4:27Speaker 1: look at the radar in the very same area. You
- 4:29Speaker 1: would think the conspiracy theories would look at the radar
- 4:31Speaker 1: and say, wow, I wonder if that played a factor. No,
- 4:35Speaker 1: that's apparently beyond their capability, I guess. This area is
- 4:39Speaker 1: right near me. I drive on that street in that area.
- 4:45Speaker 1: All the time. It's on Military Trail. The town is
- 4:49Speaker 1: Green Acres as you're heading up to West Palm Beach.
- 4:52Speaker 1: I need to describe this, and this is where we
- 4:54Speaker 1: get into the miraculous part of this entire thing. As
- 4:57Speaker 1: you know, nine people died. Horrific. Absolutely awful. The miracle
- 5:01Speaker 1: part of this is that no one else on the
- 5:04Speaker 1: ground was killed. Where that happened, what you just saw,
- 5:09Speaker 1: is next to a trailer park, first of all. A very...
- 5:13Speaker 1: Busy two-way street and thoroughfare north-south going through Palm Beach County, Florida.
- 5:19Speaker 1: It's really densely populated. I don't know if you saw
- 5:22Speaker 1: there in the video, have you seen some other news
- 5:23Speaker 1: reports of it too, but there's cars parked all along
- 5:26Speaker 1: the place. There were people on the street on the
- 5:28Speaker 1: sidewalk further up and down. It's a miracle. As tragic
- 5:32Speaker 1: as this was, it's a miracle other people weren't killed.
- 5:34Speaker 1: So let's take that away and be grateful for that.
- 5:37Speaker 1: The second thing is, these people that were in that trailer,
- 5:41Speaker 1: they're not going to get into their homes again. even
- 5:43Speaker 1: though their homes weren't destroyed, they're saying it might be
- 5:46Speaker 1: over a month because the NTSB has to do their
- 5:48Speaker 1: investigation and all this other stuff. There's a debris field
- 5:51Speaker 1: that is spread out, they think, maybe a half mile away.
- 5:55Speaker 1: Unbelievably tragic. We know about the victims. There were nine
- 5:59Speaker 1: people overall. The pilot, the co-pilot, more on her in
- 6:02Speaker 1: a second, was an Austin, Texas, tech entrepreneur. His whole
- 6:06Speaker 1: family and a couple of friends, they were traveling from Texas.
- 6:09Speaker 1: They were going to the Bahamas. They ran into this
- 6:11Speaker 1: weather in Florida. That's where the crash happened. Just absolutely awful.
- 6:15Speaker 1: To give you a little scope of exactly what this
- 6:18Speaker 1: was like here in the aftermath, this was from somebody's
- 6:21Speaker 1: car as they were still driving by before the street
- 6:23Speaker 1: was closed. The beginning's in Spanish, and this is mostly
- 6:26Speaker 1: a visual if you're a visual follower, but this is
- 6:29Speaker 1: what the ground looked like. There's a crater on fire.
- 6:32Speaker 1: in the ground. I mean, it sounds crass to say,
- 6:44Speaker 1: but it was so horrific. It looked like a special
- 6:47Speaker 1: effects movie. It was just unbelievable. And again, I think
- 6:52Speaker 1: you got to look at the miracle in some of
- 6:53Speaker 1: these cases when this actually happens. I can tell you
- 6:56Speaker 1: how densely populated that section of that street is. I
- 6:58Speaker 1: can tell you personally, it's a miracle. there weren't more deaths.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Thank God, as tragic as it is. So they think now,
- 7:07Speaker 1: the aviation experts, the people you actually should listen to,
- 7:10Speaker 1: are saying that what they can gather now, you know,
- 7:13Speaker 1: it doesn't take too long as they can get the
- 7:14Speaker 1: flight information as they put the pieces together here. They
- 7:17Speaker 1: think this Learjet 60, this private jet, fell at 27,000
- 7:24Speaker 1: feet per minute. My God, can you imagine? So they
- 7:29Speaker 1: think now, It would make sense if you ran into that.
- 7:33Speaker 1: It's a stabilizer would have fallen off the plane. You know,
- 7:36Speaker 1: it's obviously why they couldn't pull out of it. And
- 7:38Speaker 1: that's why this thing was there. Just a just a
- 7:42Speaker 1: horrific thing. And again, I go back to this because
- 7:45Speaker 1: he's joining in right now. And you didn't hear the beginning.
- 7:47Speaker 1: I'm telling you what kind of weather we are in
- 7:50Speaker 1: that same. I'm in that same weather system. It's not
- 7:52Speaker 1: that far. Not too many miles right up the street.
- 7:55Speaker 1: What kind of weather we're going through in South Florida
- 7:56Speaker 1: right now. We have record flooding north of here. There
- 8:00Speaker 1: are people who are flooded out of their homes. They're
- 8:03Speaker 1: talking about 20 inches of rain per hour just yesterday.
- 8:06Speaker 1: And that all started on Sunday when this was all
- 8:09Speaker 1: forming with these weather cells. And again, I keep repeating
- 8:12Speaker 1: this and I go back to it. You would think,
- 8:14Speaker 1: and there are not hundreds, there are thousands of clickbait
- 8:18Speaker 1: absolute morons out there coming up with every conspiracy theory
- 8:24Speaker 1: in the world right now. The easy thing, you would think, gee,
- 8:27Speaker 1: you know, if this horrific jet crash, that doesn't happen
- 8:31Speaker 1: too often here. Let me see what kind of weather
- 8:33Speaker 1: was going on in that area at the time. No,
- 8:35Speaker 1: that's beyond the idiots. They didn't want to actually get
- 8:38Speaker 1: any facts. They just wanted to get that out there
- 8:40Speaker 1: for clicks. And some of them got a million views
- 8:43Speaker 1: on TikTok and all this other crap. And the Instagram
- 8:45Speaker 1: morons who came up with their own theories, which we'll
- 8:47Speaker 1: get to here in a second, they were getting hundreds
- 8:49Speaker 1: of thousands of clicks. So it obviously works. And that's
- 8:52Speaker 1: why they come up with these theories that are just tragic.
- 8:54Speaker 1: when you're talking about nine lives lost in an area
- 8:57Speaker 1: that has a crater in it right now. Of course,
- 8:59Speaker 1: so that's why it happens, because people believe it. So
- 9:02Speaker 1: that's there. 27,000 feet per minute they're talking about. But
- 9:08Speaker 1: let's talk about this weather. I'm on the ground. It's
- 9:10Speaker 1: been insane. The rain has been crazy. Gusty winds out
- 9:13Speaker 1: of nowhere in early November. So what are they actually
- 9:16Speaker 1: saying about this? This is the ABC News report as
- 9:19Speaker 1: they talked about the weather factor, and then the actual
- 9:22Speaker 1: federal aviation experts chime in.
- 9:24Speaker 2: Two hours after takeoff, that jet crossing over South Florida
- 9:28Speaker 2: with severe storms lighting up the radar.
- 9:31Speaker 1: The weather conditions are a major focus of the investigation.
- 9:35Speaker 2: At 1247 p.m., one of the pilots telling air traffic
- 9:39Speaker 2: control the plane is experiencing icy conditions and turbulence. We
- 9:43Speaker 2: have light, clear ice that is manageable and moderate turbulence.
- 9:48Speaker 2: The pilots requesting to climb to 37,000 feet, but less
- 9:52Speaker 2: than 30 seconds later, Flight Radar 24 data showing the
- 9:55Speaker 2: plane appearing to fly into a strong storm.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Cell before suddenly plummeting.
- 10:00Speaker 2: The pilot declaring a mayday and was heard saying, we
- 10:03Speaker 2: are going to crash into the ground. Seconds later, the jet.
- 10:08Speaker 1: And we know what happened there. This news report was
- 10:12Speaker 1: just hours, hours after this tragedy happened and the whole
- 10:15Speaker 1: world saw it and they clicked like, what happened there?
- 10:17Speaker 1: It wouldn't have taken anything to look up and think, wow,
- 10:20Speaker 1: they have crazy weather in that area right now. There
- 10:22Speaker 1: must be insane storm cells. The kind of obvious, as
- 10:26Speaker 1: the aviation experts, the real ones, came out and they said,
- 10:29Speaker 1: crazy storm cells above that area. Doesn't it make sense
- 10:33Speaker 1: to everybody now that this plane tried to climb out
- 10:35Speaker 1: of that, ran into some wicked kind of storm cell
- 10:39Speaker 1: that damaged this plane, and the stabilizer was gone, and
- 10:41Speaker 1: then they crashed 27,000 feet per minute? Nope. Not enough
- 10:46Speaker 1: for the internet, idiots. And this is why And the
- 10:48Speaker 1: big takeaway is that something like this happens. It's worth it.
- 10:52Speaker 1: Everybody's got to take. I get it. This is also
- 10:55Speaker 1: why I waited a day to even talk about this one.
- 10:57Speaker 1: I wanted all the information to come out yesterday. Take
- 11:00Speaker 1: a little bit of time and try to put some
- 11:02Speaker 1: pieces together. But everybody wants to be first and have
- 11:05Speaker 1: their hot take in their conspiracy theory and everything else.
- 11:08Speaker 1: So let's get to them now. Did you fall for
- 11:10Speaker 1: any of these? I know you didn't because you people
- 11:11Speaker 1: are too smart. Did you fall? These are the grossest, stupidest,
- 11:16Speaker 1: lamest hot takes I heard about this immediately before any
- 11:20Speaker 1: thought was put into this whatsoever. Here was the first one.
- 11:23Speaker 1: And this one actually, I think, actually got the most views,
- 11:26Speaker 1: at least on Instagram and TikTok. I really think so.
- 11:29Speaker 1: Like most people bought this one. Well, the air missile
- 11:32Speaker 1: defenses were deployed around Mar-a-Lago shortly before this. They clearly
- 11:38Speaker 1: shot something down. Really? So you made that magic bridge
- 11:43Speaker 1: connection between air missile defenses and you shot something down there.
- 11:47Speaker 1: That's without anything. These were the first hot takes that
- 11:51Speaker 1: actually hit the Internet that got thousands and in some
- 11:55Speaker 1: cases tens of thousands of views. All right. Good job there.
- 11:58Speaker 1: You know, no thought for the victims at all. Nine
- 12:00Speaker 1: people died on this. Miraculously, not more people died. Okay.
- 12:03Speaker 2: All right.
- 12:03Speaker 1: That's great. And then this one. I love this one.
- 12:06Speaker 1: So on that first clip that I played for you
- 12:08Speaker 1: there from the guy's dash cam video, just happened to
- 12:10Speaker 1: catch it at the worst, you know, correct moment as
- 12:14Speaker 1: that thing was hitting the ground. People zoomed in, and
- 12:17Speaker 1: they saw on a thousandth of a frame, they saw
- 12:22Speaker 1: this thing that just looks like a cylindrical piece of aviation.
- 12:26Speaker 1: They said, that's no plane. There's no wings. Clearly, clearly
- 12:31Speaker 1: that's a missile. A missile that was, let's see, and
- 12:35Speaker 1: then they got their thinking brains going together, and then
- 12:39Speaker 1: they worked out in real time on their TikTok videos.
- 12:41Speaker 1: That's clear. I know what it was. And then they
- 12:45Speaker 1: told their followers, their Instagram and TikTok followers, it was
- 12:48Speaker 1: a missile that was headed for Mar-a-Lago, which isn't too
- 12:52Speaker 1: far away, but it missed and hit Green Acres. Yeah, right.
- 12:58Speaker 1: That was the other one.
- 12:59Speaker 2: Okay.
- 13:00Speaker 1: Oh, and then the debris field experts. These were my favorites.
- 13:03Speaker 1: These didn't get as many views. This was fantastic. So
- 13:07Speaker 1: they have the crater in the ground. Again, the estimate
- 13:10Speaker 1: is what they're putting together is they think 27,000 feet
- 13:14Speaker 1: per minute. That's how this thing, and then just disintegrated
- 13:17Speaker 1: in a fireball, right? These were the conspiracy idiots that
- 13:22Speaker 1: mostly on TikTok. There's no debris there. Something's not adding up. Gee,
- 13:28Speaker 1: do you think something hitting with that kind of force
- 13:31Speaker 1: and speed might not leave too much debris on the ground.
- 13:36Speaker 1: You think maybe, did you take any physics anywhere in
- 13:40Speaker 1: school or read anything? Do you think maybe? But then
- 13:43Speaker 1: there's this, and this is the cruelest of all. Now,
- 13:47Speaker 1: probably because she had the, you know, more of a
- 13:50Speaker 1: social media following than the pilot who was 55 years
- 13:55Speaker 1: old or the tech engineer who charted the plane who
- 13:59Speaker 1: was in his 40s, or his entire family or their
- 14:01Speaker 1: friends who also died. The 20-year-old co-pilot, because she was
- 14:05Speaker 1: out there and they found out who it was. I'm
- 14:07Speaker 1: not going to name her because she's sadly passed. You know,
- 14:09Speaker 1: out of respect for her family. So they automatically assumed
- 14:14Speaker 1: the conspiracy theorists, the idiots, that she was the pilot
- 14:18Speaker 1: and not experienced enough because she was 20. Didn't take
- 14:22Speaker 1: too long after that. Just a simple search would have
- 14:24Speaker 1: told you she was the co-pilot. She did have all
- 14:26Speaker 1: kinds of experience despite her age. And then they linked
- 14:29Speaker 1: this together. And this is the most disgusting conspiracy theory
- 14:31Speaker 1: of all. Because she sounded like, she dared sound like
- 14:35Speaker 1: this on the air traffic control recording. Because she sounded
- 14:38Speaker 1: like this, it was somehow her fault. And she was
- 14:41Speaker 1: some sort of a DEI hire and she caused this
- 14:43Speaker 1: plane to crash. I mean, there are actual people with
- 14:46Speaker 1: accounts saying this kind of stuff. Because she dared sound
- 14:49Speaker 1: like this as this thing is basically falling to the
- 14:53Speaker 1: ground at 27,000 feet per minute. This is how they
- 14:58Speaker 1: linked it together. Gee, what would you sound like, experienced
- 15:13Speaker 1: or not, if you knew you were about to die?
- 15:16Speaker 1: But God forbid she has some panic in her voice. Well,
- 15:19Speaker 1: an experienced pilot would have remained calm right to the end. Oh,
- 15:23Speaker 1: shut up. clearly have never been in that situation. None
- 15:26Speaker 1: of us have because you wouldn't be alive right now.
- 15:29Speaker 1: So those are the most disgusting conspiracy theories I heard
- 15:32Speaker 1: from the idiots on there. And again, it's weird for
- 15:34Speaker 1: me because I'm the guy that's always encouraging you to
- 15:36Speaker 1: ask your own questions, but there's a difference between asking
- 15:39Speaker 1: questions and coming up with a takeaway and a clickbait
- 15:43Speaker 1: hot take that is designed to just cause more damage.
- 15:47Speaker 1: And that's what the internet idiots are doing as opposed
- 15:49Speaker 1: to the aviation experts who have a vested interest in
- 15:51Speaker 1: telling you the truth. the air missile defense theory, the
- 15:55Speaker 1: age of the co-pilot, who they thought, and they were
- 15:58Speaker 1: trying to tell you was the pilot, the zoom in,
- 16:00Speaker 1: and because there was no stabilizer, well, that's a missile.
- 16:03Speaker 1: That's what that was. And no debris field.
- 16:07Speaker 2: Right.
- 16:08Speaker 1: Those are morons. Those are idiots looking for clickbait. And
- 16:12Speaker 1: you can always tell, and here's your little communication technique.
- 16:16Speaker 1: Whenever you see somebody rushing to be first and throwing
- 16:19Speaker 1: out theories without any basis whatsoever, of fact whatsoever, you
- 16:24Speaker 1: know it's clickbait, excuse the language, bullshit. That's how you know.
- 16:30Speaker 1: Now here's somebody that chimed in who says exactly what
- 16:32Speaker 1: I'm trying to say, but of course in a much
- 16:34Speaker 1: more eloquent and official way. Jared Isaacman is the NASA administrator,
- 16:40Speaker 1: and he wrote something great yesterday. Timeline is important here
- 16:43Speaker 1: on X. This is why the biggest takeaway most likely
- 16:47Speaker 1: is to wait for a second when something horrific like
- 16:49Speaker 1: this happens. and get some real facts from people that
- 16:53Speaker 1: you know are telling you the truth. And he wrote it.
- 16:55Speaker 1: I'm not going to read the whole thing, but he
- 16:56Speaker 1: said something I think really relevant and I think really
- 16:59Speaker 1: important yesterday. Again, this is the NASA administrator. I'm glad
- 17:02Speaker 1: this guy is in charge of getting us to the
- 17:03Speaker 1: moon and therefore Mars later on. He says, I won't
- 17:06Speaker 1: read the whole thing, writing this in my personal capacity,
- 17:09Speaker 1: but I've been flying these types of aircraft for more
- 17:11Speaker 1: than 20 years. Again, he's talking about a Learjet 60.
- 17:14Speaker 1: With over 8,000 hours, I have reasonable familiarity, blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 17:18Speaker 1: Here's the important part. I feel compelled to post after
- 17:21Speaker 1: seeing commentary about the Lear 60 crash from missile strikes
- 17:24Speaker 1: to DEI critiquing this poor woman's final radio calls. Is
- 17:28Speaker 1: that what I just said? He's exactly right. That's what
- 17:30Speaker 1: I find troubling. She was the second in command, and
- 17:33Speaker 1: while she was empowered to point out mistakes as part
- 17:36Speaker 1: of good crew resource management, she was doing her job.
- 17:39Speaker 1: Thank you, Jared. Absolutely. And then he gets to the really,
- 17:41Speaker 1: really important part. I understand public interest given the footage
- 17:45Speaker 1: and audio, but you do not know the aircraft's maintenance history.
- 17:48Speaker 1: whether there was a structural failure, if any failure was
- 17:52Speaker 1: induced by turbulence over speed or over control, everything happening
- 17:55Speaker 1: in the cockpit, let people investigate, learn and share the facts.
- 17:59Speaker 1: Be respectful. That's the part that's missing out of this.
- 18:02Speaker 1: Be respectful to those who perished and the families who
- 18:06Speaker 1: carry their memories. God bless them and their loved ones.
- 18:08Speaker 1: Thank you, Jared Isaacman, for putting some common sense into
- 18:11Speaker 1: this hysteria. And that's what I think he said it
- 18:14Speaker 1: right there. That's what bothered me the most about the
- 18:15Speaker 1: idiot conspiracy theorists. mostly on TikTok, some on Instagram, some
- 18:19Speaker 1: on Facebook. Certainly they're on X2. They attacked this co-pilot lady,
- 18:25Speaker 1: 20 years old, assuming she's the pilot and calling her
- 18:28Speaker 1: a DEI hire. She probably has more experience than most
- 18:31Speaker 1: of the aviation, you know, wannabes that are out there
- 18:34Speaker 1: commenting on this. With zero regard for the victims of
- 18:38Speaker 1: this crash, none. They just wanted to get their clicks
- 18:40Speaker 1: out there, so. The big takeaway is when something like
- 18:43Speaker 1: this happens, absolutely ask your questions. Absolutely try to find
- 18:47Speaker 1: out what happened. For sure. But give it a little
- 18:51Speaker 1: bit of time. Just give it, you know, take a
- 18:54Speaker 1: beat for a second as the people who actually know
- 18:57Speaker 1: this stuff try to collect their information. And for God's sakes,
- 19:01Speaker 1: don't listen to hot take people who are trying to
- 19:03Speaker 1: be out there first, throwing out every conspiracy theory in
- 19:05Speaker 1: the world without any regard whatsoever to victims as they're
- 19:09Speaker 1: just trying to get first and get their clicks out there.
- 19:11Speaker 1: And it worked for them. Most of them did. That's
- 19:13Speaker 1: for sure. But part of fake news, which is what
- 19:16Speaker 1: I try to keep you away from, is staying away
- 19:20Speaker 1: from the idiot conspiracy theorists. Ask questions, not conspiracies.
- 19:24Speaker 2: Anyway.
- 19:24Speaker 1: All right. We've got plenty of time tomorrow to talk
- 19:27Speaker 1: about midterms. Were the polls right? Were the polls wrong?
- 19:29Speaker 1: What happens? Just make sure you get out there and vote.
- 19:31Speaker 1: But we couldn't go another day without talking about this
- 19:33Speaker 1: horrific plane crash. Again, here's another takeaway for you. The
- 19:36Speaker 1: miracle is that there weren't more lives lost. Just ask
- 19:39Speaker 1: the right kind of questions is what I'm trying to say.
- 19:42Speaker 1: Get out there and vote. We'll talk about midterm results.
- 19:44Speaker 1: Hopefully there's not some delay for days and weeks tomorrow
- 19:49Speaker 1: and other stuff. And in the meantime, thanks for finding
- 19:50Speaker 1: me on the live stream and the replay on X
- 19:52Speaker 1: and YouTube and Facebook and Wicked Radio audio podcast is
- 19:55Speaker 1: always on your favorite podcast platforms. Got to go vote myself.
- 20:00Speaker 1: Make it a safe one. Make it a great one.
- 20:01Speaker 1: Make it an awesome one. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
