- 9:29Speaker 5: nine five sixteen twenty hope he had a wonderful weekend.
- 9:32Speaker 5: You know, let's talk about this now, because I was
- 9:33Speaker 5: going to say I say it for later, but now
- 9:35Speaker 5: I've got I think we need to get the information
- 9:37Speaker 5: out there as quickly as we can.
- 9:39Speaker 1: Because it's an update to a national story about the
- 9:42Speaker 1: cyclospora thing, which the DA over the weekend had come
- 9:46Speaker 1: out and said they had pinpointed Taylor farms. They had there.
- 9:50Speaker 5: Let us was bad.
- 9:51Speaker 1: Now let us they brought out of Mexico.
- 9:53Speaker 5: Now, in case you're in case you're not too the
- 9:55Speaker 5: scientific names this is the explosive diary of parasite.
- 9:58Speaker 1: You call it explosive diarrhea, I'll stick with cyclospora. Yeah,
- 10:03Speaker 1: so apparently it is not the Tailor farms. The FDA
- 10:05Speaker 1: has now come back no and said no, not them.
- 10:09Speaker 1: Now the damage is done there there. They are so cooked,
- 10:13Speaker 1: and that's number one, and they get sued. A close
- 10:17Speaker 1: second is the fact is, Okay, it's not them. Who
- 10:20Speaker 1: is it? Who's who is he? I didn't notice. I
- 10:24Speaker 1: didn't notice. Yesterday I was ordering some food from a
- 10:26Speaker 1: local establishment. Yeah, and it was like a stuffed pizza roll.
- 10:31Speaker 1: Lettuce was off the menu. Could not put the lettuce
- 10:34Speaker 1: in there.
- 10:34Speaker 5: Well, people are going to dude the amount of the
- 10:37Speaker 5: they're businesses that exist off of bag salads. Their businesses
- 10:41Speaker 5: die off of delivering lettuce to restaurants. And yeah, everyone
- 10:46Speaker 5: all of a sudden now is going to be like, well,
- 10:48Speaker 5: I'm not going to do that, except for Tucker who
- 10:50Speaker 5: eats the bag salad, who lived dangerously. But I'll tell
- 10:54Speaker 5: you this without without giving too much information on a
- 10:57Speaker 5: friend friend had a relative. We had an encounter with
- 11:01Speaker 5: the solo.
- 11:02Speaker 1: So now did the weekend Previously it was just Riley's
- 11:05Speaker 1: friends and relatives, and.
- 11:07Speaker 5: They confirmed because I asked them, Hey, we have been
- 11:11Speaker 5: told that the velocity at which your ferocity, no, the
- 11:19Speaker 5: velocity of expulsion is They confirmed it is as bad
- 11:24Speaker 5: as you have heard.
- 11:25Speaker 1: It's not work explosive is not a misnomer.
- 11:28Speaker 5: That is not a misnomer. Okay, that is not a misnomer.
- 11:32Speaker 5: And so yeah, we're no officially now, we're no closer
- 11:34Speaker 5: to figuring this out than we were than we were,
- 11:38Speaker 5: you know, like two weeks ago. And now Taylor Farms there,
- 11:42Speaker 5: You're right, they're never going to financially recover from this.
- 11:45Speaker 1: You know that now they're keeping in place a voluntary
- 11:47Speaker 1: recall of their processed in Mexico because it's too late, too.
- 11:51Speaker 5: Late, it's too late. That stuff's worthless.
- 11:53Speaker 1: Now, yeah, you cannot go to sell it on the
- 11:55Speaker 1: open market.
- 11:55Speaker 5: How what are you gonna do? Put Taylor Farm? What
- 11:57Speaker 5: a dollar for a bag of Taylor Farms? Let us
- 12:00Speaker 5: you think it's gonna buy that?
- 12:01Speaker 1: Tell you what, when this thing is over, I'm gonna
- 12:03Speaker 1: buy me some Tailor Farms just to support that.
- 12:05Speaker 5: Justice for Taylor Farms.
- 12:07Speaker 1: Justice.
- 12:07Speaker 5: They should sue, right because again, like that's the damage.
- 12:12Speaker 5: Damage absolutely done, right, you can't undo that Taylor Farms.
- 12:17Speaker 5: No trust us, bro, We're good. Like, what do you do?
- 12:21Speaker 5: What kind of ad campaign do you run it?
- 12:23Speaker 1: There's not a there's not a marketing campaign that can
- 12:25Speaker 1: come back now.
- 12:26Speaker 5: Though I don't think so. All right, let's talk about
- 12:29Speaker 5: some more profitable things potentially for us on the show,
- 12:33Speaker 5: very profitable opportunities. That's when you brought to the table.
- 12:37Speaker 1: I've got it right here.
- 12:38Speaker 5: I get a text, we both get a text from
- 12:41Speaker 5: Will asking us if we've ever heard of this particular rock.
- 12:47Speaker 5: And the more I dug into it, more intrigued.
- 12:49Speaker 1: I was it pomped up in my Facebook feed and
- 12:53Speaker 1: it was some club here in town that goes out
- 12:57Speaker 1: and finds bedia site, BEDIA site. BEDIA site now BEDIA
- 13:01Speaker 1: site came from the Chesapeake Bay meteor impact thirty four
- 13:08Speaker 1: plus million years ago.
- 13:10Speaker 5: Thirty four million years ago, a rock hit Chesapeake Bay
- 13:14Speaker 5: and scattered. This is it the same Chesapeake Bay that
- 13:17Speaker 5: I Yes, so you're saying a rock hit Chesapeake Bay.
- 13:21Speaker 1: And then I remember hearing stories about this with some
- 13:24Speaker 1: sort of stone that they had found out near Lake
- 13:27Speaker 1: Summerville that had been flung from this same event. But
- 13:31Speaker 1: I do not recall this BEDIA site long.
- 13:33Speaker 5: It's a long path.
- 13:35Speaker 1: It is a well, it's a dark tech type glass
- 13:39Speaker 1: formed from the impact of the media meteorite and it
- 13:43Speaker 1: was scattered and apparently that particular stuff landed right here.
- 13:48Speaker 1: It's named after beat Ice.
- 13:50Speaker 5: Because beat Eyes had a lot of it.
- 13:52Speaker 1: Yeah, and ude, these folks on the Facebook page here locally,
- 13:58Speaker 1: I guess they're finding stuff that's near me out in Welburn,
- 14:01Speaker 1: and so that's why it was popping up. Yeah, and
- 14:03Speaker 1: I started looking into it. Four smaller chipped specimens five
- 14:09Speaker 1: to fifteen dollars per gram per gram. For premium high
- 14:14Speaker 1: quality pieces thirty to fifty dollars per gram.
- 14:17Speaker 5: That's a lot. That's a pretty uh that's a pretty
- 14:19Speaker 5: pricey little rock there.
- 14:21Speaker 1: I am looking at one on a website here right
- 14:25Speaker 1: that is cut and it's beautiful. Nine fifty dollars, is it?
- 14:29Speaker 5: When 're found? Any anyone listening?
- 14:32Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be I'm certain because the group pictures
- 14:35Speaker 1: that I saw there were more than a handful of
- 14:37Speaker 1: people involved in this.
- 14:38Speaker 5: Yeah, that's that's my thing. That's how common.
- 14:41Speaker 1: That's the cut one right there.
- 14:42Speaker 5: I'll take a ture about beta. I started digging for
- 14:44Speaker 5: some stuff. If it's to be.
- 14:45Speaker 1: Fast, man, I guarantee you I've got some of my property.
- 14:48Speaker 1: I could use some of that.
- 14:49Speaker 5: Nine seven nine six nine five sixteen twenty is our
- 14:51Speaker 5: phone umber. You think you've got to laying around the
- 14:53Speaker 5: old Welsh farms?
- 14:55Speaker 1: I think so, okay. I think it's possible that is
- 14:58Speaker 1: a Riley could want some Riley wants some more images,
- 15:02Speaker 1: I think is what she wants.
- 15:03Speaker 5: It looks like it looks like a meteorite, but it's
- 15:05Speaker 5: not the meteorite, but it's glass that was formed when
- 15:09Speaker 5: this thing hit in Massachusetts and then rain down over America. Apparently,
- 15:15Speaker 5: by over America, I mean literally.
- 15:17Speaker 1: That particular splash land out right here.
- 15:19Speaker 5: Big old splash like millions of years.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Ago, thirty four and a half million years and that.
- 15:25Speaker 5: Is a that is that is one of the that's
- 15:28Speaker 5: that is crazy and it's named after beat Eyes.
- 15:30Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's a cool looking rock. But you know,
- 15:33Speaker 1: I'm gonna next time I'm walking around the place, probably
- 15:37Speaker 1: do it after snake season down in the ditches and
- 15:39Speaker 1: so forth, the old creek beds out there, I'll find something, Okay.
- 15:43Speaker 5: So if I potentially silly questions say you can use
- 15:46Speaker 5: a metal detector to find.
- 15:47Speaker 1: Out, you literally have to look and see. And there's
- 15:50Speaker 1: videos on their Facebook page of them finding something and
- 15:54Speaker 1: digging them up goods.
- 15:56Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm pretty cool, lucrative.
- 15:58Speaker 1: I've got I've got friends that are sort of rock people. Okay.
- 16:02Speaker 1: I've got a friend she lives in New Mexico now,
- 16:07Speaker 1: the widow of one of my best friends from college,
- 16:09Speaker 1: and she's very much into that. They were. Their home
- 16:13Speaker 1: is up there in Arkansas, around the Crater of Diamonds
- 16:17Speaker 1: and Murphy's grow.
- 16:18Speaker 5: Oh. Now that's okay. So that's the ultimate forgot. I
- 16:21Speaker 5: assume a lot of y'all know about this, but people
- 16:23Speaker 5: legit find diamonds all the time, like every day they'll
- 16:26Speaker 5: find a rock.
- 16:27Speaker 1: I did not go there while I lived in Arkansas. Yeah,

- 19:04Speaker 1: car into reverse, and backed into wrap. Medina claims he
- 19:08Speaker 1: thought the couple was trying to flag him down, which
- 19:11Speaker 1: is why he's skidded to a stop and backed up.

- 19:16Speaker 1: held at the Brass County Jail on two hundred and
- 19:19Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars bond. Medina has been jailed in Brass's

- 20:24Speaker 2: oil across state lines. They targeted producers in the Permian

- 21:22Speaker 1: can't win a race thanks to a debate, but you
- 21:25Speaker 1: sure can lose one. So both sides, he said, we'll
- 21:28Speaker 1: be on guard for mistakes. Tall Rico challenged Paxton to

- 23:31Speaker 4: I have not.
- 23:32Speaker 5: This is this is new. I didn't find this particularly comforting.
- 23:39Speaker 5: But people are saying. Scientists are saying, we may only
- 23:43Speaker 5: have one hope when it comes to like an asteroid
- 23:47Speaker 5: like a world endercoming R one, a dinosaur extinction level
- 23:50Speaker 5: of e l e an extinction level event, and the
- 23:56Speaker 5: one hope we have is hitting it with a nuclear weapon.
- 24:00Speaker 5: They say that's the only way. It's like we've tried,
- 24:02Speaker 5: We've tried all these other kookie, okay, redirected.
- 24:05Speaker 1: I saw the movie. Now you've got to fly up
- 24:07Speaker 1: there with a few guys and and Live Tyler to
- 24:10Speaker 1: help him out. Yeah, and then you gotta you gotta
- 24:15Speaker 1: drill into the asteroids. Oh yeah, and plant though, as
- 24:18Speaker 1: it turns out, will You're correct. You have to send
- 24:22Speaker 1: two things, they say.
- 24:24Speaker 5: The first thing has to be a bomb to blow
- 24:28Speaker 5: a crater in it, and then once the crater is there,
- 24:31Speaker 5: then you can guide a nuclear warhead in it and
- 24:35Speaker 5: it will take care of the whole thing. And you
- 24:37Speaker 5: are right, sir, you are right. That is the exact
- 24:41Speaker 5: plot of the movie. Ar mcgedt, Yes, it is it.
- 24:48Speaker 5: I would like to have you seen arm again. I
- 24:50Speaker 5: shouldn't say, oh no, what.
- 24:55Speaker 8: So no Ben Affleck, Ben Affleck, Billy, Bob Thornton sen
- 24:59Speaker 8: it Willis's crime like it's an all star pass the
- 25:03Speaker 8: aforementioned Liv Tyler And yeah, there's an asteroid.
- 25:06Speaker 5: Coming our way and the only thing that can save
- 25:08Speaker 5: us is oil.
- 25:09Speaker 1: Guys, oil workers, those miners, weren't they.
- 25:15Speaker 5: Somebody can drill. I gotta find somebody can drill, because
- 25:17Speaker 5: they got a drill down and then put a nuclear
- 25:19Speaker 5: weapon in it. But it's actually also the plot of
- 25:22Speaker 5: a second movie around that time that was Deep Impact,
- 25:25Speaker 5: exact same thing.
- 25:27Speaker 1: Hollywood was setting us up and to this, and and
- 25:29Speaker 1: so that's what.
- 25:30Speaker 5: We got right now, is we got that is our
- 25:33Speaker 5: only hope.
- 25:34Speaker 1: It's only a matter of time.
- 25:35Speaker 5: As long as we're talking about natural disasters, you kind
- 25:39Speaker 5: of include me into this. But then I keep seeing
- 25:43Speaker 5: articles about the San Andreas fault right now.
- 25:45Speaker 1: They say it's eerily quiet.
- 25:47Speaker 5: Eerily quiet, and by eerily we mean nothing is happening
- 25:52Speaker 5: on this fault. Nothing and that never happens, never just
- 25:56Speaker 5: stops work doing its thing. If you look at the graph,
- 26:00Speaker 5: like like the the threat Index, the average tectonic stress level,
- 26:06Speaker 5: the entire fault is at a three currently the entire fault,
- 26:11Speaker 5: and they say it's the highest level of tectonic strain
- 26:16Speaker 5: in the last thousand years.
- 26:17Speaker 1: Big one's coming.
- 26:19Speaker 5: So they're not not even like, Okay, well, yeah, it's
- 26:21Speaker 5: Andrea is always it. No, No, it hasn't been this
- 26:24Speaker 5: stressed out in one thousand years.
- 26:29Speaker 1: San Andreas.
- 26:30Speaker 5: It's the one that would that they always told us
- 26:33Speaker 5: would cause the California to fall into the seat.
- 26:36Speaker 1: We can always hope. However, Yeah, that's the I mean
- 26:41Speaker 1: I remember when it cooked off during the was the
- 26:43Speaker 1: World Series?
- 26:44Speaker 5: Right, it was during the World Series, and of.
- 26:46Speaker 1: Course they collapsed the upper and lower decks of the
- 26:49Speaker 1: freeway there. It's not going to be good and it's
- 26:52Speaker 1: gonna happen. The one that the one that always oh
- 26:55Speaker 1: is in back of my mind on my top three
- 26:58Speaker 1: list of things.
- 26:58Speaker 5: That are going to cause So you do you have
- 27:01Speaker 5: worked in emergency.
- 27:02Speaker 1: Yeah, and where I worked, you kind of if you've
- 27:04Speaker 1: been there for a little while, you you developed your
- 27:07Speaker 1: top three list of bad things that were gonna have top.
- 27:09Speaker 5: Three potential catastrophe. Yes, that could befall in my lifetime, okay.
- 27:14Speaker 5: And and and one of those was a new Madrid
- 27:17Speaker 5: Fault earthquake which is up there in southeastern Missouri, northeastern Arkansas, Tennessee,
- 27:24Speaker 5: and that in that area.
- 27:25Speaker 6: Holy cow, Okay, y'all are gonna laugh at this. So
- 27:29Speaker 6: when I I can tell you this thing, I was
- 27:31Speaker 6: in sixth grade science clasts. They said if Yellowstone ever Yellowstone,
- 27:36Speaker 6: that would be like the biggest horrific thing to happen
- 27:40Speaker 6: to the United States.
- 27:42Speaker 5: If that were when it happened Yellowstone called there would
- 27:46Speaker 5: be like a not a potential world ender, but it
- 27:49Speaker 5: would definitely mess everybody up. Oh yeah, like a couple
- 27:51Speaker 5: of decades for.
- 27:52Speaker 1: Sure, at least at least.
- 27:54Speaker 5: Yeah, that's wyoming exploding.
- 27:57Speaker 1: The last yeah, the last time New Madrid cooked off,
- 28:00Speaker 1: it rang church bells in Philadelphia. When was this, Let's see,
- 28:04Speaker 1: it's eighteen something.
- 28:06Speaker 5: Okay, so it's again been a minute.
- 28:08Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been a long time. It has so eighteen
- 28:11Speaker 1: eleven and eighteen twelve.
- 28:13Speaker 5: Okay.
- 28:13Speaker 6: All I know is we had to watch this movie
- 28:15Speaker 6: about it, right, and it showed us. It started with
- 28:18Speaker 6: what would happen when it exploded.
- 28:20Speaker 1: Like, oh, you're back on the caldera.
- 28:22Speaker 6: Yeah, well, all the casualties, and then it would show
- 28:24Speaker 6: it completely like blacking out all of the US at
- 28:28Speaker 6: one point, like half.
- 28:29Speaker 5: Of it, which we will not have Sunshine Dinosaur level event. Yeah,
- 28:33Speaker 5: yellow Stone boop.
- 28:33Speaker 6: It should be bad.
- 28:34Speaker 5: It would be very overall bad. What else?
- 28:37Speaker 1: New Madrid rang church bells in Philadelphia? They estimate between
- 28:42Speaker 1: a seven point five and at eight on the Richter scale.
- 28:45Speaker 5: That's impressive.
- 28:46Speaker 1: On that the Mississippi River ran backwards temporarily, it created
- 28:51Speaker 1: real Foot Lake in Tennessee. They also say this, I'm
- 28:54Speaker 1: sorry what.
- 28:55Speaker 6: Yeah, it ever went back and it created a lake.
- 28:58Speaker 1: Yes, okay. And they also say this that the city
- 29:01Speaker 1: of Memphis is essentially built on soils that when they
- 29:04Speaker 1: start shaking will liquefy. Right, And the city of Memphis
- 29:09Speaker 1: and the giant Bass pro Shop where I saw lots
- 29:12Speaker 1: of concerts before it became the Bass Pro Shop.
- 29:15Speaker 5: That's not going to be a good thing, no, But yeah,
- 29:17Speaker 5: So that's so that's a bad one because a lot
- 29:19Speaker 5: of population is there.
- 29:21Speaker 1: It's not just the population, it's transportation, right, because that
- 29:24Speaker 1: would that would destroy every bridge over the Mississippi River,
- 29:28Speaker 1: so your east to west ground and rail transportation would
- 29:31Speaker 1: be non exist.
- 29:32Speaker 5: So that's that's one. What's another one on my list?
- 29:34Speaker 1: On your list? A real actual pandemic.
- 29:37Speaker 5: Okay, like a pandemic like like from like contagion like.
- 29:41Speaker 1: The movies, Spanish flu type of something like that. A
- 29:45Speaker 1: real real pandemic.
- 29:46Speaker 5: Number three?
- 29:47Speaker 1: Yeah, And an attack, a cyber attack on infrastructure.
- 29:51Speaker 5: That's the bats.
- 29:52Speaker 1: If you want to scat, you go look up. Ted
- 29:55Speaker 1: Copple wrote a book called Lights Out.
- 29:57Speaker 5: There's a there's a few there's a bunch of it
- 30:00Speaker 5: are out there that they made a movie about it
- 30:02Speaker 5: and I want to say, like Obama was credited as
- 30:06Speaker 5: a producer. Oh yeah, which made me.
- 30:07Speaker 1: Look at it like, wait a minute, part of this
- 30:10Speaker 1: that was part of his Netflix deal though then he
- 30:12Speaker 1: gets all the credits. It's it's all money going to him.
- 30:15Speaker 5: Why are you giving all this like this is this
- 30:17Speaker 5: I don't want to know about this. No, like this
- 30:19Speaker 5: is bad. But yeah, that's that.
- 30:20Speaker 1: That's my list of three, just because I don't think.
- 30:25Speaker 1: I don't think the Yellowstone is going to explode in
- 30:27Speaker 1: my lifetime. Now back to the OG. I think we're
- 30:30Speaker 1: pretty due for a bad one out in California.
- 30:33Speaker 5: I think that is I think that is clear. Uh
- 30:35Speaker 5: the movie Volcano, that's the one for Chase. He says,
- 30:40Speaker 5: like a volcano actually erupting like in the movie and
- 30:44Speaker 5: taking out the city of la which look anything, anything
- 30:48Speaker 5: is possible for Jake quote permission to shake the hand
- 30:52Speaker 5: of the daughter of the bravest man I've ever known.

- 32:04Speaker 6: Skip Schumacher recaped the game.
- 32:06Speaker 7: First off, Evil gave us everything he had. I mean,
- 32:08Speaker 7: he was not feeling great all week, and I know
- 32:10Speaker 7: he gave up a couple of solo home runs, but
- 32:12Speaker 7: he gave us a lot out there. I don't think
- 32:15Speaker 7: people really realized what he was going through. After that,
- 32:18Speaker 7: you know, we just made a couple of mental mistakes
- 32:20Speaker 7: that cost us. And you do that to a you know,
- 32:23Speaker 7: a really good offensive team over there, they're going to
- 32:25Speaker 7: make you pay.
- 32:25Speaker 5: And they did.
- 32:26Speaker 7: And then also Baldwin and Riley just had an amazing
- 32:29Speaker 7: series and we just couldn't contain them. It was just
- 32:32Speaker 7: a whatever we did, it didn't matter what pitch we
- 32:34Speaker 7: threw him. They were hitting it hard and we just
- 32:37Speaker 7: couldn't make the proper adjustment.

- 33:42Speaker 9: of new players, so still trying to fill out kind
- 33:44Speaker 9: of you know, as we work with these players day
- 33:46Speaker 9: to day, what their strengths are, where, you know, what
- 33:49Speaker 9: does the team need, Where do the puzzle pieces fit.

- 33:54Speaker 9: high energy. We're going to be pressing, and you want

- 34:07Speaker 10: I think we had a really solid spring with our
- 34:09Speaker 10: new coaching staff, and we got to learn a lot
- 34:12Speaker 10: of their new styles and start to work with each
- 34:14Speaker 10: other and kind of understand what they expect from us.
- 34:17Speaker 10: And then obviously coming into the fall, we just got
- 34:19Speaker 10: back a couple of days ago. We have a lot
- 34:21Speaker 10: of new girls, a lot of new transfers, a lot
- 34:23Speaker 10: of freshmen, and that's given us opportunity to really share
- 34:27Speaker 10: what we know with them and how campus works and
- 34:29Speaker 10: just kind of the culture that we want here. And
- 34:31Speaker 10: so so far, I think we're off to a really
- 34:33Speaker 10: positive start. We're having a lot of fun so far,
- 34:35Speaker 10: which means a lot, and we just have really good
- 34:38Speaker 10: energy and everyone's very focused and we like to keep

- 36:19Speaker 1: This No, no soccer apparently, and I don't know the
- 36:22Speaker 1: methodology behind this. I don't know anything. Just says soccer
- 36:25Speaker 1: has overtaken baseball to become America's third favorite sport.
- 36:29Speaker 5: There is no way it has to be like right now,
- 36:34Speaker 5: oh like today, Yeah, because the World Cup was going on.

- 36:54Speaker 1: soccer is just a completely.
- 36:56Speaker 6: There's no other sports besides the MLB, who's way through
- 36:58Speaker 6: their season. So every all the professionals who are not

- 37:04Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta watch and it's here, you know the
- 37:07Speaker 1: whole thing.
- 37:07Speaker 5: But like, honestly, and I get it, well, okay, but
- 37:10Speaker 5: a lot of kids play soccer. You don't think a
- 37:11Speaker 5: lot of kids play baseball like they got all the same.
- 37:15Speaker 5: It's not the same.
- 37:16Speaker 1: And it's growing. It's it's a great.
- 37:20Speaker 5: Yeah, I like it, it's growing. It made for a month.
- 37:23Speaker 1: It's not America's pastime.
- 37:24Speaker 5: Are you doing?

- 37:27Speaker 6: like they yeah, literally fringe.
