Speaker 1: If you woke up this morning and that's exactly how
0:12
Speaker 1: you sounded. Your house is freezing because you haven't turned
0:15
Speaker 1: the heat on. When do you seven oh one two
0:18
Speaker 1: eight zero one nine eight seven. When did your heat
0:22
Speaker 1: come on? Angie?
0:23
Speaker 2: You know it's been on and off for the last
0:27
Speaker 2: I want to say, week or so, and not last night,
0:31
Speaker 2: but the night prior I flicked it on because I
0:34
Speaker 2: was like, I feel like it's gonna be really cold,
0:38
Speaker 2: because that's when you were on here and you're like
0:39
Speaker 2: tonight alone twenty eight and I was like, oh, okay,
0:43
Speaker 2: I feel like I have to put put the heater on. Yeah,
0:46
Speaker 2: And then yesterday I realized that it was off, like
0:49
Speaker 2: when I got home from work, and I thought, oh,
0:51
Speaker 2: that's weird because I don't believe in anyone touching the
0:53
Speaker 2: thermostat besides myself. But I asked the kids, and apparently Aiden,
0:59
Speaker 2: the old one, he turned it off. And it was
1:01
Speaker 2: because in the middle of the night, Liam woke up
1:04
Speaker 2: and was like drenched in sweat. He was like it
1:08
Speaker 2: was just too hot. It was too hot to sleep,
1:12
Speaker 2: so I had to. Last night, I didn't touch it.
1:15
Speaker 2: The AC wasn't on, but the heater wasn't on either.
1:17
Speaker 2: I just let whatever temperature be the temperature.
1:21
Speaker 1: You were just letting the weather take the wheel there, Yes, exactly.
1:25
Speaker 2: I you know what, I trust mother Nature, she has
1:28
Speaker 2: my back.
1:28
Speaker 1: I guess.
1:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, we've had our heat on.
1:30
Speaker 1: I don't normally the first time I turn it on, right,
1:33
Speaker 1: it's when inside the house it's probably like sixty degrees.
1:38
Speaker 1: That would be about the number, if somewhere between sixty
1:41
Speaker 1: and sixty two. Because I know, I know, just like
1:46
Speaker 1: I know the sun is going to rise in the
1:48
Speaker 1: east and set in the west every day. I know
1:51
Speaker 1: my wife is going to come home and tell me
1:53
Speaker 1: it's cold and we need the heat on. So I
1:55
Speaker 1: just turn it on when it's about sixty. Miranda says,
1:58
Speaker 1: I think I turned on my three weeks ago. We
2:01
Speaker 1: have a house full of wooses. And this is the
2:05
Speaker 1: most Midwest conversation ever. They don't talk about this in Florida.
2:08
Speaker 1: When does the heat come on? No, it's like, oh,
2:11
Speaker 1: has the ac been running for eighty straight years? Ashley says,
2:16
Speaker 1: it was fifty nine in my house this morning and
2:18
Speaker 1: we haven't turned ours on yet. Ashley saving some bucks
2:21
Speaker 1: on a trooper. Jennifer says, I'd like to keep it
2:25
Speaker 1: at sixty in the winter, which is crazy, but hey,
2:29
Speaker 1: I support it. Whatever you're doing, and I'll save a
2:31
Speaker 1: couple bucks. Or if sixty five is too hot, whatever,
2:34
Speaker 1: sixty in January is crazy.
2:37
Speaker 2: No, I feel like that's okay. Here's my thing. They
2:40
Speaker 2: always say that there are two types of people, people
2:42
Speaker 2: who run hot and people who run cold, and then
2:45
Speaker 2: they marry each other.
2:46
Speaker 1: That's my wife exactly.
2:48
Speaker 2: I run so hot. Yeah, I have my ac on
2:52
Speaker 2: in the car in the wintertime because I'm just always
2:55
Speaker 2: a hot, sweaty broad. But I always tell my kids
2:58
Speaker 2: whenever they're like, mom, it's cold up here, I'm like, okay,
3:03
Speaker 2: you can't put on more layers, and there's only so
3:07
Speaker 2: much I can take off. And I'm definitely not trying
3:09
Speaker 2: to run around naked in front of my children. So
3:12
Speaker 2: if you can pilele on blankets, that's what we're gonna do.
3:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's definitely an easy alternative. Cooling down is a
3:20
Speaker 1: lot harder than warming up, all right, And I think
3:24
Speaker 1: William and I might have the same wife. I might
3:26
Speaker 1: have to send her a text to be like, you
3:28
Speaker 1: have two husbands, William said. My wife turned the heater
3:32
Speaker 1: on this summer, the summer that sounds like someone I'm
3:35
Speaker 1: married to.
3:36
Speaker 2: Okay, my little victory Gabe is that now I am
3:47
Speaker 2: fitting into a second pair of jeans that I could
3:52
Speaker 2: not fit into because I got happy fat. I want
3:57
Speaker 2: to say, that's what it is, a happy fat, happy fat,
4:01
Speaker 2: like when you are happy in a relationship. So all
4:04
Speaker 2: you guys do is like snuggle and cuddle and eat snacks.
4:07
Speaker 1: Oh love be fat, Oh love weight.
4:10
Speaker 2: Okay, I like it.
4:11
Speaker 1: I get what you're saying. Yeah, happy fat, love weight,
4:13
Speaker 1: same same ballpark. Yeah.
4:15
Speaker 2: So but I'm, you know, trying to slim down a
4:17
Speaker 2: bit just because I don't want to have to buy
4:19
Speaker 2: new clothes. Like I already have a lot of clothes,
4:21
Speaker 2: so I might as well try to fit back into it.
4:24
Speaker 2: So I am in a pair of jeans that I
4:26
Speaker 2: haven't worn in easily a year. So I'm slowly but
4:30
Speaker 2: surely getting there. Slow and steady wins the race. That's
4:33
Speaker 2: what I learned as a child. So I'm very excited.
4:36
Speaker 3: I love that for you.
4:37
Speaker 1: Good to you, very proud you know when you come in,
4:39
Speaker 1: you know every week or every other week or whatever
4:41
Speaker 1: and let me know about your uh. I don't know
4:44
Speaker 1: your fitness, your slim down, whatever you want to call it.
4:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm always happy and proud for you.
4:48
Speaker 2: I call it watch the number fall on the scale?
4:52
Speaker 1: Is that because it's all fall I'm so stupid? Hey,
4:56
Speaker 1: I got there, though, I got I was with you.
4:58
Speaker 1: Do you want to know what I'm proud of my
5:00
Speaker 1: little victory? Yesterday my wife and I went to Jersey Mike's.
5:04
Speaker 1: All right, We've been driving past Jersey Mike's for the
5:06
Speaker 1: past week, and every time we do, we're always saying
5:10
Speaker 1: we should get some Jersey Mikes, right, but then we
5:13
Speaker 1: end up at McDonald's because we want the monopoly pieces.
5:15
Speaker 2: Gosh, you are obsessed with that. I have not gone
5:18
Speaker 2: to McDonald's, not once.
5:19
Speaker 3: I need to do that.
5:20
Speaker 1: I No, I can't answer that question or I can't
5:23
Speaker 1: follow up to that statement. But I got the biggest
5:27
Speaker 1: possible sandwich you can get at Jersey Mikes, like the giant.
5:31
Speaker 3: One or whatever.
5:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've never got one, and I've always wanted to
5:34
Speaker 1: do it. And yesterday, just on a whim, I was like, yeah,
5:37
Speaker 1: I'll take one of them number eight joints, but can
5:40
Speaker 1: I get the longest one? Yeah? And that's the little victory.
5:42
Speaker 1: I've never gotten to buy one, and I did yesterday.
5:46
Speaker 2: Did you eat the entire sandwich? Or when we are
5:49
Speaker 2: done on air today, do you have some sandwich?
5:52
Speaker 4: You know?
5:53
Speaker 3: I got half sitting in the fridge here at work.
5:55
Speaker 1: You know, My little victory is always a revolve around
5:58
Speaker 1: my ten o'clock like breakfast, lash lunch.
6:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like lately years have been very food
6:04
Speaker 2: related and mine have been like, I'm stopping eating so
6:07
Speaker 2: much food now.
6:14
Speaker 1: I know that's what it sounds like when you turn
6:17
Speaker 1: Netflix on. But as streaming platforms continue to only grow
6:23
Speaker 1: in popularity, so are the prices. HBO is raising prices again.
6:30
Speaker 1: All right, it's gonna cost you upwards of almost twenty
6:33
Speaker 1: dollars now for you know, like the standard plan, the higher,
6:38
Speaker 1: the higher video quality and more simultaneous streams. That premium
6:43
Speaker 1: tier that's gonna cost you almost twenty three dollars now
6:48
Speaker 1: and this morning, when does that number get to? Big
6:54
Speaker 1: seven oh one two eight zero one nine eight seven.
6:57
Speaker 1: I want you to pick your favorite streaming platform, whatever
7:00
Speaker 1: one it is, doesn't matter to me. Yeah, I want
7:03
Speaker 1: to know at what price point do you go? I
7:07
Speaker 1: just can't do it, all right, I can't rewatch Game
7:10
Speaker 1: of Thrones for the thirteenth time.
7:12
Speaker 2: You know what's so funny, Gabe, is that you posted
7:15
Speaker 2: this to the Big ninety eight point seven Facebook page
7:18
Speaker 2: yesterday also asking, and last night, right before I went
7:23
Speaker 2: to bed, I checked my email just because you know,
7:27
Speaker 2: I don't want to ever fall asleep. Yeah, I don't
7:30
Speaker 2: want to fall asleep, calmly, I want to stress myself out.
7:33
Speaker 2: So I checked my email and I got this. Do
7:37
Speaker 2: you remember thank you for being part of the Disney
7:40
Speaker 2: Plus community. We're so glad you've enjoyed everything we have
7:44
Speaker 2: to offer. Blah blah, blah, blah blah.
7:47
Speaker 1: We're raising prices.
7:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is now increasing to eighteen ninety nine per
7:52
Speaker 2: month on November nineteenth.
7:56
Speaker 3: What why?
7:57
Speaker 2: I think that might be my number, Gabe? Really, I
8:00
Speaker 2: think I'm gonna enjoy the rest of the Halloween programming
8:04
Speaker 2: on Disney Plus.
8:05
Speaker 3: What are you gonna do with missing all the Christmas stuff?
8:07
Speaker 2: I have Hallmark Channel? Oh my gosh, I subscribe to
8:10
Speaker 2: the Hallmark Channel like streaming.
8:13
Speaker 1: Certain Yeah, the number for that for me would be
8:16
Speaker 1: two dollars. It's five ninety now, hey, yeah, Buck, I
8:19
Speaker 1: could handle up Buck if I start paying you two though,
8:22
Speaker 1: seven oh one, two eight zero one nine eighty seven
8:25
Speaker 1: your favorite streaming platform, and what number would be too
8:28
Speaker 1: much that you would be willing to pay. So for me,
8:32
Speaker 1: it's kind of difficult because we have a bunch of
8:34
Speaker 1: them like lumped together.
8:35
Speaker 2: Oh bundles.
8:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, Hulu, Disney Plus, and ESPN I think are all
8:40
Speaker 1: one thing for us. So that number is a little
8:43
Speaker 1: bit different for me because there's three things attached to it,
8:46
Speaker 1: So I justify it a different way. But I use
8:50
Speaker 1: Fubo TV right to watch Vikings games and wild games
8:55
Speaker 1: and Minnesota Timberwolves games, and there's regular channels on there too.
8:59
Speaker 1: I very rarely just chilling watching cable, you know. It
9:02
Speaker 1: just doesn't happen that way at my house. And I
9:05
Speaker 1: can't remember the exact number, but I'm pretty sure it's
9:08
Speaker 1: about eighty five dollars. It's kind of like, well, it's
9:11
Speaker 1: kind of like a mid tier package because when we
9:14
Speaker 1: had regular cable, yeah, not regular cable, but just some
9:19
Speaker 1: regular TV thing that was upwards of like one hundred
9:21
Speaker 1: and twenty dollars.
9:22
Speaker 2: Well that was the thing if that cable and satellite
9:25
Speaker 2: got to be too expensive, so then they were like
9:28
Speaker 2: just join this streaming platform. But now there's a bajillion
9:33
Speaker 2: streaming platforms and they all cost a lot. You know what,
9:36
Speaker 2: I should do the math on how much I'm actually
9:38
Speaker 2: spending month on these?
9:40
Speaker 1: Well, I think for me, if that if Fubo ever
9:42
Speaker 1: got to be the price of what I was paying before, yeah,
9:46
Speaker 1: then i'd probably be that would be the number for me.
9:50
Speaker 1: I think it was about all one hundred. I think
9:52
Speaker 1: it was one hundred and twenty ish dollars. We have
9:55
Speaker 1: some room there, yeah, they got some wiggle room. But
9:58
Speaker 1: if Hulu ever got to maybe realistically fifty dollars, I'd
10:05
Speaker 1: probably be done. I can talk myself into a dollar
10:08
Speaker 1: a day, you know, like coals, I could do that.
10:13
Speaker 1: I could even talk myself into I haven't done the math,
10:15
Speaker 1: but like a dollar and thirty cents a day to
10:18
Speaker 1: get to fifty once you start paying two bucks a
10:21
Speaker 1: day for a streaming platform, that is tough for me
10:24
Speaker 1: to justify. It would be fifty dollars. Long story, fifty
10:28
Speaker 1: dollars for what's the one I probably use Hulu, the Molu.
10:33
Speaker 2: Fifty dollars for Hulu for me, apparently it's eighteen ninety
10:37
Speaker 2: nine for Disney.
10:38
Speaker 1: Plus, yesterday we talked about this men diagram that was
10:48
Speaker 1: going viral on TikTok. It's basically a Venn diagram, the
10:52
Speaker 1: ones you remember from elementary school, only this one was
10:55
Speaker 1: about dudes. And there's a good chance they can only
10:59
Speaker 1: have two out of these three things. If they have
11:01
Speaker 1: too many, it might be a red flag.
11:03
Speaker 3: All right.
11:04
Speaker 1: They can only be either a good looking, be nice,
11:09
Speaker 1: or c smart. All right, they can have two out
11:12
Speaker 1: of those three. Yeah.
11:14
Speaker 2: So if the three circles, if you're at the intersection
11:18
Speaker 2: of all three hot, smart, and nice, then that's no.
11:22
Speaker 2: He's too good to be true. He was written in
11:24
Speaker 2: a book. He's not real.
11:25
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's something you saw on a Disney movie. Okay, exactly.
11:28
Speaker 1: So we are making a little callback to this. We
11:30
Speaker 1: didn't get to it, and I wanted to finish this
11:33
Speaker 1: with these hilarious comments on our Facebook page.
11:36
Speaker 3: And my wife did respond. I know. We had asked
11:38
Speaker 3: Corey to respond to us yesterday.
11:40
Speaker 2: Oh yes, I want you to know what does she
11:42
Speaker 2: consider you?
11:42
Speaker 3: She did.
11:43
Speaker 1: She considered me hot and nice. So basically, the two
11:47
Speaker 1: women I hang out with more than anybody on earth
11:51
Speaker 1: think I am a blabbering idiot. All right, they're basically
11:54
Speaker 1: call me a bumbling buffoo.
11:56
Speaker 2: Okay, but you're so cute.
11:59
Speaker 3: I appreciate that.
12:00
Speaker 1: All right, these answers were great and in roundabout ways,
12:03
Speaker 1: makes so much sense. All Right, Kelly, she said, if
12:07
Speaker 1: she could only pick two out of the three for
12:09
Speaker 1: her man, she would want her man to be hot
12:13
Speaker 1: and smart. There's a caveat, though, obviously smart enough to
12:17
Speaker 1: be nice. So she's she's kind of bobbing and we yeah,
12:23
Speaker 1: And then Linda said, smart and nice. That's what she
12:26
Speaker 1: would want her partner to be, smart and nice. You
12:29
Speaker 1: can always help him with his looks. That's right, you can,
12:31
Speaker 1: you know what, you dress up that fella however you want.
12:34
Speaker 1: You can get him or suggest the clothes he needs
12:37
Speaker 1: he's gotta get. You can't always put lipstick on a pig,
12:40
Speaker 1: but damn it, you can try.
12:41
Speaker 2: You can put a beard on a man, you know.
12:46
Speaker 1: And then finally, Erica Michelle, this was a very sweet answer.
12:50
Speaker 3: Smart and nice that would make them hot. Caveat.
12:56
Speaker 1: I like that ladies are getting smart. They're sneaking in
12:59
Speaker 1: ways for dudes to get better and better looking.
13:01
Speaker 2: But I think this just does prove that for women
13:05
Speaker 2: it's like your personality. It's what's on the inside that counts,
13:09
Speaker 2: and then it will magically make you look hotter. We
13:12
Speaker 2: that's our how our.
13:13
Speaker 1: Brains work, well, fellas, If that's what you need to
13:17
Speaker 1: continue on with your struggles today, you do it all right.
13:24
Speaker 2: In a world of rules and great areas, one radio
13:27
Speaker 2: station dares to ask the hard questions. Is it legal
13:31
Speaker 2: to run through a red light if it appears to
13:34
Speaker 2: be broken or malfunctioning?
13:37
Speaker 1: It's a great question, have you if you've been to
13:41
Speaker 1: a red light and it appears to have been staying
13:43
Speaker 1: red for a lot longer than what you would typically
13:48
Speaker 1: guess necessary.
13:49
Speaker 2: Like you see a light cycle go like the other
13:52
Speaker 2: light on the other side goes green, yellow, red, and
13:56
Speaker 2: still yours.
13:56
Speaker 1: Doesn't turn, and you're just thinking, oh, well, this thing's
13:59
Speaker 1: broken or it's malfunctioning or whatever. Apparently, if a traffic
14:04
Speaker 1: light is broken and just stuck on red here in
14:07
Speaker 1: North Dakota, you still cannot go through it. You can
14:11
Speaker 1: literally you could sit there until your car runs out
14:14
Speaker 1: of gas. And if you finally say forget it and
14:17
Speaker 1: go boom instant ticket, that's exactly when the cop jumps
14:21
Speaker 1: out from the bushes.
14:21
Speaker 3: And tracks you down.
14:23
Speaker 1: Now listen, if I'm sitting there for five minutes, there's
14:26
Speaker 1: no cars around, you know, maybe it's four forty five
14:30
Speaker 1: in the morning, there's no cops, not even a squirrel crossing.
14:35
Speaker 1: That's not running a red light my opinion, that's just survival.
14:38
Speaker 1: That's right, all right, But apparently the law says you
14:40
Speaker 1: were supposed to treat it like a stop sign, as
14:45
Speaker 1: in stop, don't move, don't stop, and then continue ongoing,
14:49
Speaker 1: which is kind of weird because if a traffic light
14:52
Speaker 1: is broken or it's malfunctioning and it's blinking, yeah, you know,
14:55
Speaker 1: you can drive up and then everyone takes their turn
14:57
Speaker 1: and then they go. Because if it's blinking like fine,
15:02
Speaker 1: if it's dark, okay, but if it's stuck on red,
15:05
Speaker 1: I almost feel like I'm being held hostage, you know
15:08
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Moral of the story, If a light
15:11
Speaker 1: appears to be broken, the law isn't right, So just stop,
15:16
Speaker 1: look both ways, and wave to the officer who is
15:19
Speaker 1: totally about to pull you over for running a red light.
15:25
Speaker 1: Have you ever been on a walk or doing something
15:28
Speaker 1: just fun out in the wild and found something either
15:32
Speaker 1: really cool or really creepy? Seven oh one two eight
15:35
Speaker 1: zero one nine eight seven. I don't even know if
15:37
Speaker 1: I've ever told you this story, Angie, but I was
15:39
Speaker 1: on a walk once with Winona when I spotted this
15:43
Speaker 1: old like half bery jar sticking out of the dirt,
15:47
Speaker 1: and of course curiosity won.
15:49
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, we might as well call you George.
15:51
Speaker 1: Yep, I dug that thing right up, and inside there
15:54
Speaker 1: were a bunch of these little handwritten notes. They all
15:57
Speaker 1: looked like they were from the nineties, and every single
16:00
Speaker 1: one started with if you're reading this, and then ended
16:04
Speaker 1: with something different like is it still there, don't proceed,
16:08
Speaker 1: don't continue forward ew I thought it was super cool. Now,
16:12
Speaker 1: I did put the jar right back where I found it, right,
16:15
Speaker 1: but I because it was in October. That's I don't
16:19
Speaker 1: know what it is about October, but that's when I
16:21
Speaker 1: turned into a little hiking gabe. Oh okay, and I
16:24
Speaker 1: just love going out with the dog and visiting state
16:27
Speaker 1: parks and what have you. So I think it might
16:29
Speaker 1: have been one of the greatest Halloween pranks of all time. Yeah,
16:32
Speaker 1: but at the time it was a little bit creepy.
16:34
Speaker 1: But yeah, no, I left the jar there because I've
16:37
Speaker 1: seen a horror movie before.
16:38
Speaker 2: Right, I found I've found a mannequin head that would
16:41
Speaker 2: trip out. Yeah, well for me and my sister. We
16:46
Speaker 2: took her home. We named her Catherine. We tatted up
16:50
Speaker 2: her face and chopped up her hair and said that
16:53
Speaker 2: that was our daughter. We lived different childhoods. I think
16:57

Speaker 5: polaroid wedged between some rocks, and it was this couple
17:15
Speaker 5: from the eighties with the big hair and jean jackets
17:18
Speaker 5: and holding a puppy. And I kept it and it's
17:20
Speaker 5: rained in my living room. I call them mom and Dad.
17:24
Speaker 3: I love that.
17:25
Speaker 2: Okay, see, I'm not creepy. She took the thing home
17:28
Speaker 2: and framed it.
17:30
Speaker 3: A fair point, Josea, what about you?
17:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, I once found a straight puppy.
17:34
Speaker 2: We checked and he didn't seem to belong to anyone.
17:37
Speaker 1: So we had him with us for fifteen years and
17:40
Speaker 1: he was such an amazing dog.
17:41
Speaker 3: Oh that's a swee.

Speaker 1: What's the coolest, strangest, maybe most unique thing you've ever
17:52
Speaker 1: randomly found out in the wild. Just found something cool,
17:58
Speaker 1: maybe maybe a bit creepy strange out in the wild
18:02
Speaker 1: seven oh one two eight zero one nine eight seven.
18:06
Speaker 2: My sister and I were just walking along once and
18:09
Speaker 2: we found a mannequin head I don't like that. We
18:12
Speaker 2: took her home. We named her Catherine. We tatted up
18:14
Speaker 2: her face and called her our daughter. We grew up
18:19
Speaker 2: poor Gabe, Okay, we had to come up with weird
18:21
Speaker 2: things to keep ourselves entertained.
18:24
Speaker 3: Hannah, what about you?
18:25
Speaker 4: Well, when I was a kid, I grew up in
18:27
Speaker 4: Oregon and I would write my horks all around And
18:32
Speaker 4: one time I wandered into an illegal marijuana grow.
18:36
Speaker 3: And you had the best day ever.
18:37
Speaker 4: No, And then the other time I went way in
18:43
Speaker 4: the middle of nowhere and I came across a mood
18:46
Speaker 4: shigne still thing in the middle of the woods.
18:49
Speaker 2: I feel like, are you the luckiest person in the world?
18:55
Speaker 3: Yeah?
18:55
Speaker 4: I am, because I didn't end up dead. I mean, gosh,
18:58
Speaker 4: oh well there, yeah.
18:59
Speaker 1: There's'll go out, you know, maybe hoping to find Bigfoot
19:03
Speaker 1: or something. You're just finding ways to really enjoy a Saturday.
19:14
Speaker 1: It was a normal afternoon in East Bethel, Minnesota, which
19:18
Speaker 1: turned chaotic when Carrie Thorpe noticed smoke and flames coming
19:23
Speaker 1: from the underneath of a school bus as it pulled
19:27
Speaker 1: up to her home to drop off her daughter. She
19:29
Speaker 1: immediately ran towards the bus to alert the driver Rick.
19:33
Speaker 1: These students on the bus started crying and panicking as
19:36
Speaker 1: the situation unfolded, and Carrie and Rick worked together to
19:41
Speaker 1: evacuate all twenty two students from the East Bethel Elementary School.
19:46
Speaker 1: They gathered safely on her front porch as the bus
19:49
Speaker 1: became fully engulfed in flames within just a few minutes,
19:53
Speaker 1: so in a matter of moments, this entire bus is
19:57
Speaker 1: basically just a driving ball.
20:00
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah.
20:01
Speaker 1: The mom describes as hearing those tires explode and the
20:05
Speaker 1: fire spreading as just being incredibly terrifying.
20:09
Speaker 3: Now the bus was completely destroyed.
20:11
Speaker 1: There were some backpacks and lunch boxes, But the great
20:14
Speaker 1: news is no one was hurt, no parent or any
20:18
Speaker 1: of the children. Parents In school officials, they praised Carrie
20:22
Speaker 1: and Rick for their quick actions and bravery, as they've
20:25
Speaker 1: been recognized as heroes for keeping the children safe during
20:29
Speaker 1: the emergency, that would be a Nightmary.
20:31
Speaker 2: I mean, anytime that it's something to do with kids,
20:35
Speaker 2: I'm always like oh, because like I cannot. I do
20:38
Speaker 2: not want anything obviously bad to happen to anyone, But
20:40
Speaker 2: when it's kids, it just hits my heart so hard.
20:43
Speaker 2: And such quick thinking from this mom who saw smoke
20:47
Speaker 2: and was like, oh, where there's smoke, there's fire literally,
20:50
Speaker 2: and then everybody got to safety. Oh my gosh, thank God.
20:53
Speaker 2: That's a great story.
20:55
Speaker 1: The world is full of nice people. If you can't
20:58
Speaker 1: find one, you gotta be one.
