  Speaker 1: you don't drive all the way down here to find
• 0:37

  Speaker 1: Yes. Yeah, there's always something.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: That's not that's not us in this case, this is
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: the neighborhood, right apparently.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: Well, I think it's kind of typical around here because
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: I think the Internet is nineteen ten version and they're
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: working hard to get it into the twenty first century,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: which is only twenty five years old, now twenty six
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: years old.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: We got a heads up from crack engineer Todd Came
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: that the century like people are aware and are working
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: on it.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, this is the KFA B comment line, which
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: has a long and rich history on news radio eleven
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: to ten. Kf be currently being shepherded by the former
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: mayor Jean Stouther who, like most radio people, needs a
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: day off, so she's taking the whole week off actually,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: and so it's satom Iron Rose for the next you know,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: fifty minutes or so. We'd love to hear from you. Yeah,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: and if we can kind of the idea, Yeah, we
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: could evoke the old history of the KFB comment line,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: which is you know, Sadler goes way way back to
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: our good old friend Hall of Famer Walt Kavanaugh, who
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: used to have a voice recording machine, a sort of
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: an early version of it was early voicemail. Yeah, and
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: you he promoted a number if you'd like to make
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: a comment on the KFAB comment line, they'd call. He'd
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: record these messages and then he'd pick two or three
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: of them, however long each day or however often it was,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: and he would literally solve the problem. So somebody would
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: call in and say, well, I have a squirrel in
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: my chimney, and he'd say he'd call down to the
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: animal control city Chimney sweep.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: I recalled animal control. What it was Walt Walt recorded
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: it live m while recording it on a cassette, okay,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: with the phone call, and then he would edit it
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: down to I think it was fifteen to twenty minutes,
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: and we'd play it back at night. I think at
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: ten or five or ten thirty, I can't remember exactly
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: twenty minutes. I ran that for you know, first a
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: year and a half I was here. I was on
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: till midnight and loved it. People listening to that man, well,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: you know, they wanted to get on with the wal Cavis.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: So what he'd he would record, as you say, and
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: take whatever the question was and then call whatever pertinent
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: authority there was that could answer the question or solved
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: the problem.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: City Forrester Hunter, the Humane Society. Yeah, it's a public
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: works guy, so we have a little fun with it,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: but it was it was a good public service. It
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: was and it engaged kfab listeners across the world as
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: it does now five five, eight eleven ten. That's the
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: number to call if you want to be on. We
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: did do a live kfab comment line program. That's what
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Gene does and that's what we're doing.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: And yeah, zero take whatever us or email Peyton high

• 3:37

• 3:39
  Speaker 3: You got a Gary, and I actually had one thing
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: come in already this morning.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: We'll see, good morning, Gary.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: And Jim uh Ethan is asking you if either of
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: you guys have ever seen the Michael Jackson movie that
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: just came out.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Your thoughts and opinions, Roger, I did. Now, as many
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: of you know, I'm very hard on biopics. I'm extremely
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: skeptical on every I'm a very tough nut and a
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: tough customer on biopicks. If it's not really well done
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: and the acting isn't really on par and the the
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: individual playing that person isn't really close, I don't think
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: I'm away disappointed.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: I don't think you and I have ever agreed on
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: a biopick. It's possible. I've seen a few that I
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: thought were great. Whitney Houston's was really good. I thought
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: very very good. I was not impressed with the Reagan biopick.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: I'm the next one will be the next one will
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: be the Eisenhower.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: The Elvis one, I did not. I thought the Elvis
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: one was except I thought it was good. I thought
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: it was very good, you know. And I did not
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: know Colonel Tom Parker. Nobody did by comparison to Elvis,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: but Colonel Tom, because Austin Murphy played Elvis and he
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: was actually nominated for Best Actor. And then Colonel Tom
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Parker was played by Tom Hanks, which I thought was
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: stole the show. I thought, I thought it was a
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Hanks Parker movie. Yeah, I really do. Yeah, well, the
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: storyline was that. But Murphy just I think was so
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: authentic and I and I thought that Michael Jackson biopick
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: was exceptionally all done. Now, if you're looking for the
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: full monthy, you're not going to get it because this
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: was a family sanctioned Yeah, a family sanctioned movie, which
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: means they protected Uncle Michael from all of the stuff
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: that we read and heard about in the last twenty
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: years of his life. It stopped pretty much right at
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: the victory tour, which was in the mid eighties, but
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: his nephew, Jafar Jackson, one of I think ten kids
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: of Germaine Jackson and three wives. He played Michael and
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: he was exceptional. He was great, I thought, And again
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: most of it had half the movie was after he
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: had ascended to his own sort of recording career, he
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: had separated from his brothers. Something it was. They went
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: behind the scenes and it sort of confirmed a lot
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: of the reputation that Jackson had that his childhood was
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: stolen by his dad. That's celebrity superstar.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: No, I haven't seen it, but did you find yourself
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: wanting to moonwalk out of the theme?
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: What about get your best like he?
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: No, we didn't do that, but we were just impressed
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: by Jafar Jackson. And what I learned is that he'd
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: spent two years really very just doggedly determined to get
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: as close to Jackson's ability to dance as possible, and
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: much of the vocals were his, but they also overdubbed
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Michael's vocals into some of the songs and very carefully
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: and skillfully.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you remember this, Jim, but you
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: probably do. Early seventies, the Jackson five, and they'd be
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: on TV. You could tell that little guy had something special.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: He was a I don't know, seven or eight years
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: old maybe, and then lord, I don't know when we've
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: seen talent like that stage.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's just he was incredible. You know, he's great.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: And this movie again, you know, it was very well done.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Once again, it portrays Joe Jackson as an evil human
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: being terrible, awful, dreadful man. And it's probably true, but
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: you forget that if it weren't for Joe Jackson, this
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: is the dad, they'd all still be working in that
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: steel mill and Gary, Indiana. He's the one that said
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna drive this family out of poverty and we're
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: gonna be big. So you can you can blame him
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: from being a schmuck. You can make him into a
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: dreadful ogre parent. And maybe he was. But I don't
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: think any of those Jackson's that are sitting around on
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: the lap of luxury right now think about how often
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: they could have been back in Gary working nine to five.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: I'll check that one out, you like it. The next
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: one is going to be the Billy Joel and that
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: is not sanctioned by Billy or his family. This is
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: by his former Here's another one I mentioned. I don't
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: think you and I have ever talked about it. You
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: like the Elton john one. I haven't seen it. I've
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: heard I didn't see it. Yeah, I gotta go see
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: that one. Or he's like that one too. It's not
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: in the theaters anymore. Yeah, but I'll watch it on
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Netflix or HBO or something. Johnny was Johnny call Walk
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: the line? That was very good. Yeah. I thought that
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: that was Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon. I thought that
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: one was really good. I'll watch that occasion. I don't
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: casting on that one. But really, didn't you like you
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: didn't think I wasn't crazy?
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: He didn't like that. I'm tough too. I mean, wow,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: it's it's when I know something about him. I thought
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: that was a really good one. It's when I know
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: something about him that I wanted to really be he won.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Well. I was very very concerned about Denis Quaid playing
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan and I thought that and I also didn't
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: like the screenplay, and I disagree. Yeah, all these biopicals, well, yeah,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: especially I thought Coal Miner's Daughter was maybe the gold standard.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: But you know, in the case of Reagan. Part of
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: it was I didn't think Quaid did a great Reagan.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: But secondly, they jumped around too much. They should have
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: focused on maybe he and Nancy's relationship or his political career,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: but they kept jumping here and there, and I didn't
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: know what to do. It was I came away such
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: a remarkable life.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: I think they tried to get pieces of segment of it,
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: and I enjoyed it a great deal. By the way,
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: So I guess we've opened that topic here, that one
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: of home. What's your favorite.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: Bio fleck or the one that disappointed you the most? Yeah, yeah,
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: you know, and we want to hear from you guys.
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: Four zero two, five, five, eight to eleven ten comment
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: at kfab dot com. I'm shuffling through my phone here
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: due to lack of internet in the building.
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: This one comes from Bob.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: I saw a census report that the population had a
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: small dip between twenty four and twenty five. Is this
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: a pattern you think is going to continue? What the
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: country or yea NASCO national population.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: I think it is a trend. The birth rate is
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: alarmingly low, it really is, and that's a good problem.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Bring us a lot more trouble down the road than
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: we think. You know, if you have the you remember Satder.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: Back in the early seventies, there was this big zero
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: population growth movement. You had the hippies and the crazy
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: lefties that said, okay, we can't have it. Yeah, and uh,
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: suddenly people realize, well, hold on just a second. If nobody
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: has any kids, who's going to pay for my Social Security?
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: At last report, people who work pay for the people
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: who don't work their social Security. So maybe we ought
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: to stop this talk about not having kids anymore. What's
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: the number you need to have? The replacement rate is
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: two point three kids something like that per family. You'd
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: think it would be two, but no, because you have
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: you have to account for deaths.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: And you have to account for people they only have
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: one or none.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you did your job. You had four of them. Yeah,
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: you're behind them. Between the two of us, they averaged
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: it out. Yeah, Peyton, you're not. You're not in a fatherhood.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: Created yet not yet, not yet married in August, though
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: you're getting married or you're getting.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Married in August. Congratulate Is she in trouble? I always
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: go there, but yeah, you know, congratulations, Well, thank you,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: thank you, and we're when do we landing on children?
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: She will have to get our approval before this is
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: actually done.
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: So totally as long as we stay away from the seafood.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: No seafood fan, Rosie. You were right though. In the
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: seventies one point six berths per woman that was a
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: low in the country, and about two point two two
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: point three right now is what it is to continue it.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: Kent sent an email here says who cares about MJ.
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about exciting news or sports in Omaha.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: One thing already.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: One thing that has been controversial Chris Baker's talked about
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: in the afternoon as well is Nebraska softball. Nebraska baseball
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: and the season ticket that's created some controversy.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Player of the Year. Yeah, rightly, so transformative, no doubt
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: for that sport. Yeah. Uh well, you know we've talked
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: about this on the air, will continue to I if
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: I were in charge, and I'm not and they don't
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: ask anymore. Come on, if I were in charge, I
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: would not be offering baseball and softball season tickets to
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: donors unless they own baseball and softball season tickets. They
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: don't make any more money doing it. They just reduced
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: donations to a transaction, which is a negative trend because
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: if it's a transaction, that means they have to assign
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: some sort of monetary value.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: Not only that, but I don't believe that people are
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: donating money so they can get basement yeah, softball tickets. Fact,
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: they're donating money because they want to support the program overall, exactly.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: And I spoke with one of the top ten percent
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: donors last week, just casually, and he was very embarrassed
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: by it. He said, you know, I mean they came.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: The guy called me and said, hey, I got two
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: tickets for you behind Home played if you want them whatever.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: And he says, I don't go to baseball game. He's
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: got a suite at the football steam. He's a big
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Husker fan, and he's supportive. He goes, well, that's not
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: fair because somebody bought that season ticket and now they're
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: booted out because they don't own a suite in the stadium.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: And then the argument is, well, we have to Part
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: of it is we have to set aside seats for
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: the other team. That's an easy one before each and
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: you say, okay, if we make a regional, we have
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: to have three hundred seats for this team over here
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: in three hundred seats, So don't sell those as season tickets.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Just sell those on a game by game and you'll
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: sell those like this, so you don't have that. That's
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: a flimsy argument, and I didn't agree with that, and
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: I wish they'd quit saying things that are easily, you know, debunked.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: But it's about treatment of fans, and Nebraska, for years
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: and years and years was the gold standard for how
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: it treated its fans. And the fans responded, I don't
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: in kind. This one is. This one is greed and
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: it's not healthy, and it causes a divide between those
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: who are of means and those who don't.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: It's greed without a result, right, I mean, they're not
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: gonna not give money because they don't get us off,
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: exactly by the way I thought. Speaking of sports, you're
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: item this morning that whatever entity it was, proclaimed Nebraska
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: to be the second most likely to lose the regional.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: That was the DraftKings, DraftKings, Kansas the most.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: Nebraska is notoriously tough at home, Well they have been
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: this year. What we're talking about, Yeah, this is going
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: to be a tough regional now Ole Miss.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Ole Miss is a pure SEC team with SEC material
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: and good the good resume. And the other thing you
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: should know about Ole Miss is they are not They
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: are not going to be intimidated about a big crowd
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: because they want later two three years ago, right, Ole Miss?
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Or they won the World Series in twenty twenty two. Yeah,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: but they they have played in front of massively hostile
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: crowds in the SE's LSU Florida. You know, Mississippi State, Arkansas.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: If you think they're going to be intimidated by a
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: big crowd, no, Now, Arizona State doesn't play in front
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: of big crowds. And I think they may be a
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: little bit of a paper tiger offensively because that ballpark
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: down there is a bandbox. Now, Landon Harrison is their
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: super player. He's maybe the very best player in the country,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: and he's certainly hit a lot of home runs. But
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: again down there, fly balls turn into home runs in
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: that ballpark. So Ole Miss is the one to worry.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: It's a tough regional for sure, but don't sell Nebraska. Sure,
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: I mean this is exciting at home. They sprang both
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: these teams.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: We're a little bit better at home and that's a
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: tremendous advantage and it should be fun. I think that
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: they'll be very successful in the first game. I see
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: they have Carson Yasa going to start the first game.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: That surprises me a little bit. He's the ace I
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: would have larded, and maybe they did consider this. Hold
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: that guy back for the second game might seem disrespectful
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: to South Dakota State, but this isn't about respect or
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: lack of respect about winnings. And having Carson for that
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: second game I think might have been might prove to
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: have been very fortunate. Check me on this.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: If you win your regional, you get home field for
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: the Super unless somebody seated higher than you won their region.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: So yeah, the top eight national seeds they keep home
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: field advantage throughout including the super Regional. If one of
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: them loses in their regional, then it flips back. So
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: in the case of Nebraska, they're up against Auburn, the
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: number four national seed. Auburn then if they win their
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: regional would host Nebraska or whoever comes out of this
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: regional for the Super refund.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, now, they're fun, they're fun to watch. They're good ladies.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Star what Thursday Thursday, Thursday night man. Yeah, that'll be good,
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: pretty cool.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: A lot of Nebraska's in Oklahoma City again, Hey help
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: us out here. We we're you know, we did a
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: morning show for years. It usually taking a break everything.

  Speaker 1: How are we on the breaks here?
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: Okay, we got a few minutes left and on that,

• 17:20
  Speaker 5: to Chicago back in the one and he said three
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: times in uh has a tone much of anything. So
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: I say, that's very strike you're out. I think people

  Speaker 5: should take about things like.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: That, all right.
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: The ones that the ones that's polite are usually usually
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: the ones that you know I should win.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Well, you're asking the yeah, we're ray. You're asking the
• 17:47

  Speaker 7: Thanks having my call.
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: Hey, Gary's great to hear you back on the radio,
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: my man, Thank you, sir. Say you guys were talking
• 18:47
  Speaker 6: about you know, biopicks and this and that. Now it
• 18:50
  Speaker 6: was a little before my time the Doors.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: Val Kilmer played Jim Morris on that. I said it
• 18:57
  Speaker 6: was before my time, but I heard and I read
• 18:59
  Speaker 6: that that he took a bunch of voice lessons and
• 19:01
  Speaker 6: actually saying yes most of those songs. Is that true?
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: And then number two, I just wondered if he had
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: any interesting experiences driving the golf cart over the weekend.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: My man, I'd forgotten about that. Yeah. Val Kilmer played
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: Jim Morrison in the bio pick on the Doors. He
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: was brilliant. It was brilliantly well done. He's a good actor.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: He was a very good actor. Thank you. Ken.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Yes, I did with the golf cart at Bill and
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: Vaughan's great event at.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Memorial Park Friday night. Spill anybody, No, but uli got
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: soaked for a while. It rained pretty good and then
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: it rained.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: But the first, you know, until you get used to
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: a cart, well, the going down the hill. The first time,
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking, you know, I might want to touch the brakes.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: Here, So I didn't have a governor on it. No
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: oh no, oh wow.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: But then I got used to it. It was, it was.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: It was a great night, wonderful night. Even though they
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: couldn't unveil the flare, unrolled, the flat to windy and
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: the rain. Yeah, the flag people were concerned about the
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: weight of it and if the wind caught it, you know,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: might take somebody out. Good go to uh is it Brett?
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Go to Brett on the phone, Brett, good.
• 20:11
  Speaker 8: Morning, Good morning, Gary, Good morning, Jim.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: Hey nobody.
• 20:15
  Speaker 8: I'm calling to pay some homage and do a little
• 20:18
  Speaker 8: brown nosing. I got three things. The first thing is
• 20:20
  Speaker 8: I really miss being able to say hey Gary at
• 20:24
  Speaker 8: the start of a talkback Mike message. The second thing
• 20:27
  Speaker 8: is my favorite biophic is going to be the one
• 20:29
  Speaker 8: they make about Gary Saddle. And then number three, since
• 20:34
  Speaker 8: you're not coming around as much anymore, the beloved Governor
• 20:37
  Speaker 8: Hineman doesn't either, So maybe Rosie can can check into
• 20:40
  Speaker 8: that and do something about it.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: But I'll be playing I'll be playing Dave Heineman in
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: the Heineman biopic. Yeah, no doubt. Just we already had
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: a round of auditions and good to see you guys.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: It's really good to see you two.
• 20:54
  Speaker 9: You know, we won't be playing golf in North Bend
• 20:56
  Speaker 9: because I got privileges in North Bend obills let me
• 20:58
  Speaker 9: play exempt out there, so I'll.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: See out there.
• 21:01
  Speaker 9: Gary.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: It'll be good.
• 21:02
  Speaker 9: I'm all over these races now. Everybody calls in. What
• 21:05
  Speaker 9: should I do? Who should I talk to?
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: You? Very good?
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Well, but Gary sladamyer Jim Rose in here for Jeens
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: author on the kfab comment line this.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: Morning, here we go. We're gonna go to Lieutenant Dan.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: I don't know if this is a Forrest Gump reference.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: I think it's legitimate. Lieutenant Dan, thank you for the
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: call this morning. You're live on KFAB.
• 21:24
  Speaker 10: Hey, good morning, guys. I'm just going to give your
• 21:26
  Speaker 10: heads up. We were thinking about going down to Oklahoma
• 21:29
  Speaker 10: City to the softball game, but my buddy checks on it.
• 21:33
  Speaker 11: They don't play till eight thirty and then they're in
• 21:36
  Speaker 11: a thunderstorm watch.
• 21:38
  Speaker 10: It looks like so that courts the midnight before they play.
• 21:41
  Speaker 10: So if people are thinking about going, they might want
• 21:44
  Speaker 10: to check with their good old weather guy and make
• 21:46
  Speaker 10: sure that they don't have to stay till midnight like
• 21:49
  Speaker 10: we did for a Nebraska eighty.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: Well that's part of the country. You know, these tournaments
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: this time of the year. You got it. You just
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: have to be ready for that. Tough love being a
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: football or a baseball softball fan this time here, because yeah,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: weather can about your whole evening. And yet that's kind
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: of the nature of it. They do an unbelievable job
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: at Oklahoma City and this event. It's a little bit
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: like what Omaha does with the College World Series. They
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: make it a really community event. They have the teams
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: all over town doing stuff, the service clubs and the
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: kids come out really support it. Oh you is not
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: in it this year, so you know, we'll see how
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: the attendance looks. For the women's softball World Nebraska is
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: the number one national See they reseeded. Once you get
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: to the series, they have a very very legitimate chance
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: to win the national title. Do they have a better
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: chance of winning the national title than the volleyball team did?
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: The answer would be nuts. But it's in the neighborhood.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: They just have They just have and they have the
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: one player and I know that it's a team sport,
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: but they have the one player who's been there. You
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: know she has won two national titles, and that kind
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: of experience is in val when you have a player
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: that is so critical man, and she's neat, and she's
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: a wonderful person, and she's obviously a great, great player,
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: but she's a really fine person. And if you get
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: those two things together, you have Eric Crouch. You know,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: you have somebody who's committed their time to serving the
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: people that made their lives so wonderful when they were playing.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: Near as I can tell, I haven't had the pleasure
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: of meeting Jeordi, but as near as I can tell,
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: and I know Eric, they're very down to earth people.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Yes, both of them. Yes, I mean Eric, I don't
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: know if he's got a shred of ego. He's amazing,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: He's he's so giving. He yeah, I mean, this guy is,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: he's amazing. His generosity is it's unbelievable. You just you
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: don't see that in people who have reached the rare
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: fight air that he has. And I think Jordi from
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: is in the same place. Oh we got a Trump
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: haters callee. Good morning.
• 24:00
  Speaker 11: Hello, Hey, it's your DT from Julian.
• 24:07
  Speaker 7: But I'm in Olympia, Washington now visiting my granddaughter.
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: Ah, now you're not a d.
• 24:13
  Speaker 7: There's a little freer out here.
• 24:14
  Speaker 11: There aren't as many potentially hateful reds.
• 24:19
  Speaker 7: But you know, I still love Nebraska.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: You're fine, You're good, you get slack.
• 24:25
  Speaker 7: Good good. I just want to tell you that I'm
• 24:28
  Speaker 7: glad to hear Gary's voice and Jim you guys both
• 24:31
  Speaker 7: together again.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: That's fun.
• 24:33
  Speaker 7: Than We have a Lynn Walls sign in our yard
• 24:36
  Speaker 7: and no one has has.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Torn it down yet. They're not going to do that.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: Lynn's a good person, she is a friend. She's a
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: good person, and she's capable of individual and she's probably
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: got a game plan that is pretty sound.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Most Democrats, as we know in Nebraska, that you go
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: to die. But this will be the ti this will
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: be the tightest race. It's Bill Hopner lost to Mike
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Johanneson ninety eight. It'll probably be within ten points. And
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: it's because there are people that are thinking at all
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: if Jimbo is going to deliver on all of his promises,
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: and you know, this is not a doorknob that he's
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: going up against. This is a legitimately capable leader and
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: policy gal and experienced and uh, somebody offers a nice
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: alternative to some of the people they've trotted out over
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: the years.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: Oh, yes, Elena is not one of those's army dean. Okay,
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: I don't know. You know, may you make your own
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: decision on who to vote for based on their policies.
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: But at least you have two candidates here who are legit.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Oh very you know she's she's very legit. Now you
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: can argue. Look, her record will be exposed by Jim's campaign.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: I see. He's brought in a cabal of Trump people
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: from the Trump White House to run the show, which
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: is a really good idea. They know how to win,
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: and they know how to expose. They know how a
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: message to expose opponents. Uh, you know, but Jim's run
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: up against some headwinds and there is a revenue problem
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: in Nebraska right now. Blew through a lot of that
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: COVID money and started some projects and did some stuff
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: that I think down the road will pay off. But uh,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: you know, to get the things done that he wants
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: to get done, you know he's gonna we're gonna have
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: to reform the tax code.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Now we haven't had a chance, Thank your name for
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: the call. We haven't had a chance to talk since
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: the election on the air since the election. But this
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: second district, that Denise Powell winning that Democratic nomination. Man,
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: you talk about the influence of money in politics. Nobody
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: knew her, had zero name recognition, but the millions that
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: came in got her over the hump. And and I
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: think the Democrats missed a bet here. I think they
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: missed a bit. This is she's she's going to be
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: a tough vote for any moderate. Well, but here's the thing, Conservatives, moderates,
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: Republicans have to get off the couch. You got to
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: go vote. Sure, Well, they missed about here. I thought
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: Keshla Atkins was a quality, smart candidate who just didn't
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: have the resources to push her name. Nobody kne who
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: she was either.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Well, but see the thing is, though Gere a lot
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: of people in the Democrats circles did know Denise Powell.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: She for ten years had been she was behind the
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: scenes there. Ten years she'd been raising money and raising
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: votes and walking neighborhoods for female candidates for city council,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: county board, school board legislatures. So the Democrat machine or machinery,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: if you will, very familiar with Denise Powell yeah, so
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: That, but you're talking about tens of thousands of people.
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: Sure when it comes to voting, sure, no doubt. To
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: make your name known, and she got started early.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: But I think also in the case of Crystal Roads,
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: Crystal has her base of ardent supporters who are with
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: her in the foxhole, but she was divisive in many
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: ways in that party. And John Cavanaugh, I mean to
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: be candid with you, I don't think he was a
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: very dynamic candidate. I don't think he was a great campaigner.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: He might have been a little bit complacent because of
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: his family's name recognition. I think his sister's craziness hurt him.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: Think I think that he probably took some things for
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: granted until the last several weeks he did, actually, I
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: think get hurt by those ads and didn't respond to those. So, yeah,
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: you know very quickly. But you know this woman and
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: I said it on the air when I think we
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: were still on the air, which she declared, this is
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: the one you need to worry about. And I think
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: I predicted then that she would win the nomination, and
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: I'm not predicting she'll win the election, but I think
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: it's going to be very very good.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: It's going to be tough, but I'm telling you this,
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: this is over and over again. You don't have Don
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: Bacon though, right, you don't have Don Bacon who's going
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: to naturally appeal to a lot of moderate Democrats.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: And I used the term loosely.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: But but still, if Republicans, conservatives, moderates get up off
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: the couch independence break her wins, we don't do it. Well,
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: we didn't do it in Jean's race, and we did
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: not do it in this primary, partly because again well yeah,
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: Lincoln is that's a foreign country when it comes to
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: politics in this state.
• 29:27
  Speaker 12: Uh.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean there were lots of reasons why

  Speaker 2: It's Saturday here for Jeans Doth and Chip Maxwell's back
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: in there tomorrow and then Jean's back next week. Hey,
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: I want to get to something before I forget, because
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: I didn't get to it my last day Rosie back
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: in December, and I realized after that I hadn't done.
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: I've been collecting these candidates for Story of the Year
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty five and I didn't award the grand prize.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: I'll start with third prize.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: This is from August eleventh, twenty twenty five. A naked
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: man towing a stolen motorcycle was arrested in Madison County.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: Sheriff's deputy attempt at a traffic stop of a pickup truck
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: pulling a trailer without functioning lights. The vehicle eventually pulled over.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: Deputy found forty seven year old Kip Polston of Iowa naked,
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: using a pair of pants to cover his shame. He
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: told the deputy that he was hot and allergic to
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: his own sweat.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: That's number three, so in a sending order, that's the
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: bronze medal.
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: Silver medal goes to the story from a June twenty
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: ninth last year, a drunk Lincoln man allegedly pointed a
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: gun at his neighbor and shot himself in the leg.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: They say he smelled of alcohol. What a surprise and
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: a grand champion here, gold Medal story of the Year
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: for twenty twenty five. I knew this was going to
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: be tough when it popped up in the news April
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: twenty second, a year ago. Excuse me, two separate calls
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: involving naked adult males causing a disturbance over the weekend.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: The Douglas County Sheriff's Office says they were exhibiting signs
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: of excited delirium and speaking gibberish. I only bring this
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: up because nobody died. They believe the men consumed locally
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: purchased THHC products. Medical professionals to old deputies that the
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: symptoms mirrored those of a person who had ingested PCP.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: Sheriff's office is investigating the case to determine where the
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: products were purchased and if any illegal or undisclosed compounds
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: were added. Two naked guys speaking gibberish in separate calls
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: that they weren't together.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: In stead to qualify, you really got to be naked to.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: Close the deal with with with intoxicating substances and getting naked?
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: What is the deal with that? I mean in public,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: I can see it. In private, usually there's meth involved.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Usually you're going to trace something to meth amphetamines if
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: you're naked or you're walking around without pants. Unfinished business.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: That was very good. Thanks for Claire that up.
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: I'm glad we got to the bottom of that. We
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: could award some winners there.
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: This is to be collecting them for this, I thought
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: the one most ridiculous one I heard this week. Yesterday,
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: it seems like the city of Lincoln had a problem
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: opening most of the pools because overcrowding and excessive heat.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: Wait a minute, and some infrastructure I'd left.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: I'd leave the heat part out of overcrowding maybe, but
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: got to get some more lived.
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, don't they have a count? You can't come in
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: anymore because we're full. Maybe excessive heat Wait till we
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: get one hundred and five in July?
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: Right? All right? Kidding?
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: Four zero, two, five, five, eight eleven ten is the
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: phone number? Anything goes? This morning? This came in the
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: email inbox comment at kfab from Mark Hi Jimm and Gary,
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: why do all these kids have electric bikes? They also
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: don't know the rules of the roads. When I was
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: a kid I'm forty two now, a regular bike helped
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: me get into shape as I was the fat kid.
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: Well, I got the electric bikes and the and these scooters.
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: All the young kids, little kids are right around neighborhoods,
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: and I worry about them. Yeah, because they don't. They don't.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: They'll blow through stop signs and uh, and they're all
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: over the place and they're fast. And then they head
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: up to a main a main artery and yeah, they're
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: going to the postil residential areas.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: We have that problem these uh, motorized little scooters or
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: mini bikes or whatever they are, and they're going faster
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: than they're supposed to go. And yeah, you're right. They
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: don't pay attention to you know, some road rules or
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: road signs. Uh. It just states back to parents. You
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: know what, why would a parent buy a kid a
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: motorized bike when a regular bike is better for him
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: on four or five different levels. But that's their choice.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: There's no law. There's no law against bad parenting. We
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: have bad parents, but there's no law against it. So unfortunately,
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: this is this is what we're dealing with now. So
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: society has to fix the problem that should be fixed
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: at home.
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know if they're bad parents. Necessarily, we
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: shouldn't their kids. I mean, they shouldn't have little kids
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: on motorized bikes. Little kids in my neighborhood, for exam,
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: one family, a great family. They got strict rules. I
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: got the little bitty scooters where they can go and
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: where they can't go. But most a lot of them,
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: I will say most a lot of them. I see, man,
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: they're just racing down the sidewalk. Yeah, I don't like it. Yeah,
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: and it like this fat kid said, you know, it
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: got me in s Yeah, I mean it's good for you.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: At last report, childhood obesity is only an epidemic. Riding
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: bike was fun, It was fun, it was great. You know,
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: it was inexpensive. It didn't usually kill you like a
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: motorized bicycle. Yeah. Yeah.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: I tried to kill myself a couple of times on
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: a motorcycle, and.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: Grace to god, it didn't.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: But yeah, you start adding you start adding motors to
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: these things.
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, especially if you're not trained. You don't know, I mean,
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: you're just a kid, it's like riding a bike, but
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: he's got a motor on it.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Now, this was actually this near death experience was actually
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: on a motorcycle, not at the Low Diablos club.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: Ah, thank you. What's going on?
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: Glad that you stayed away from there? Well, that was
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: back in Minnesota. We didn't have a lot of motorcycle clubs.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: Ten fifty three in the morning, eleven ten KFB. Here's Dave. Hi, Dave,
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: you're on eleven ten KVAB.
• 37:25
  Speaker 11: Well, let's go back about fifty four years. I'm working
• 37:29
  Speaker 11: for a construction company downtown Omaha. They just built a
• 37:34
  Speaker 11: new addition to the County Courthouse City County Building, and
• 37:40
  Speaker 11: we're digging up the streets all the way around it,
• 37:44
  Speaker 11: the new pavement down, and we come across what I
• 37:47
  Speaker 11: thought of railroad tracks, And I asked the oldest guy
• 37:51
  Speaker 11: on our crew, I said, what railroad you strung through
• 37:54
  Speaker 11: your here goes No, there are street.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: Street cars, streetcar rails.
• 37:58
  Speaker 8: It's a streetcar rail.
• 38:00
  Speaker 11: Seriously, Yeah, it was better than horseback. But once the
• 38:04
  Speaker 11: car came out, we didn't really need street cars anymore.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: Full circuit.
• 38:10
  Speaker 11: I can only imagine, I can imagine fifty years from now,
• 38:16
  Speaker 11: maybe my great grandson's down there working and they're digging
• 38:20
  Speaker 11: up real.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: I'd you're like an archaeological dig. Look, this is seven
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: hundred million dollars worth of hood ornaments, and it's not
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: gonna take people to critical places. It's gonna haul you
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: around for fun on Friday and Saturday nights. Initially. Now, eventually,
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: if a lot of people move downtown, which is a
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: big if. I mean you drive around the outskirts of town,
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: you see housing developments going up twenty five miles thirty
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: miles from downtown. People are living in those homes. But
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: you see it downtown too, well, you do see more.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: It's it's it's a in progress project. It's a strategic plan.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: They don't have everything you need. You don't have doctor's offices,
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: you don't have dentist offices, and they don't have grocery stores.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: You don't have the things that people need in their neighborhoods.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: But you're hoping the twenty five years from now the
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: community will gravitate toward you know, urban living, and then
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: they can justify expanding the street car. But you know,
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: if you have a kid and you live downtown, they
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: can't walk to a grade school in downtown Omaha. Somehow
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: they have to have the things that families need down there,
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: and maybe we don't have families down there, maybe to
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: just be I don't know people.
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: I don't see uh downtown and odo as a family
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: they do living that, I mean couple. Sure, I don't
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: see people with kids in large numbers living downtown Peyton.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: You're twenty twenty five, twenty three, twenty four. Yeah, I'm
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: not down I'm not downtown.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: Very well to live downtown. No, I have no desire.
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: That's a bad sign for that, you know.
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't have any desire. What do we
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: not have west and south north that's not downtown.
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: See, communities like Omaha have become balkanized. You have sprawls
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: of communities popping up and there are services in that area.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: And so people will live in an area very close
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: to a grocery store or convenience stores, or their restaurants
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: or maybe even their doctor's offics, maybe even their place
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: of work. And that's not going to change for multiple generations. No.
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: I was down there over the weekend, Rosie. I see
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: a lot of a lot of cool clubs and things
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: to do down there for say, kids, for young people
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: to do, and that's kind of been the vibe. This
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: is what what is it going to take to retain
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: people and attract young people. And there's a lot down
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: there for It's not for me, I'm one hundred and fifty,
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: but for those guys, well, I.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: Like going down there. But it's that this is an
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: expensive ornament.
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, and it's it's dangerous to be talking about
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: the street car with doubt. Jean's author here, but we
• 40:59
