00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.520
This is the downbeat on ninety seven
to one The Freak. We started at

2
00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:06.120
six am. If you didn't know, I'm Kevin Turner, Danny Baylist,

3
00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:09.439
Mike's Roy and JJ Jackson. Covered
a lot of things today, including the

4
00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:13.439
insight on the new Apple VR headset, some of the sports stuff, including

5
00:00:13.480 --> 00:00:17.519
the search for the Cowboys new defensive
coordinator after Dan Quinn took the commander's job.

6
00:00:18.039 --> 00:00:24.359
Learned more about the toxicology report on
the KC Mystery Three Dudes. We

7
00:00:24.519 --> 00:00:29.239
found out they had a lot of
cocaine THHC and triple the amount of fentanyl

8
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:33.200
to kill a person in their system, and learned a little bit more about

9
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:37.479
Jordan Willis, the guy who was
the homeowner at the time. Billboard Bayless

10
00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:40.799
at eight caught us up on hot
music trends two days ahead of the Grammys,

11
00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:44.880
and then we just told you about
how drinking could change. Two stories

12
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:47.119
of flight. I'm gonna do mine
first, Danny real quick, before we

13
00:00:47.159 --> 00:00:51.759
talked to DFW aviation reporter Tales of
Flight Alexander Scores. Just see the Mark

14
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:57.640
Andrews story I did. Ladies,
He's on a flight and this lady is

15
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:03.240
kind of trickled in it out of
consciousness and found out that she was diabetic.

16
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:07.000
Well, he is type one diabetic
too, and he helped stabilize the

17
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:12.719
situation because he had a diabetes testing
kit on him and he stepped into action

18
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:18.400
and found out what she needed and
that she needed to have some sugar in

19
00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:21.519
her system and she was passed out
and he saved the flight right there,

20
00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:26.480
saved the lady on the flight.
So good job, Mark Andrews. You're

21
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:30.760
a Baltimore Raven player of the day. Have some wings. Have some wings

22
00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:34.640
from water Burger. We get more
than some get. The whole party.

23
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:41.000
I told you unbelievable, honey,
butter boneless. Okay, yes, they

24
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:42.959
brought it to us, and there's
not like an agreement, but there's a

25
00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:47.000
lot of food out there and they
certainly would appreciate it if we mentioned that

26
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:51.560
it's delicious. We don't have to
forget all that. That was amazing,

27
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:56.760
honey, butter boneless wing. I'm
so full and I'm gonna go have an

28
00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.239
It hits good too when you have
like a hot one too after that and

29
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:02.239
then you go back to it and
then you just get a fry or too.

30
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:06.920
Oh my god. That is in
a world of wings that we live

31
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:15.159
in where they're everywhere, those are
efing no cap speaking of being in a

32
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:22.280
world of wings. What happened in
Florida? Danny Well Mikey The FAA reported

33
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:32.639
that a small aircraft, under unknown
circumstances, crashed into a mobile home park

34
00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:39.360
in Clearwater, Florida. The small
plane smashed into this mobile home park.

35
00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:45.599
Not only did it kill the pilot
of this small aircraft, who was the

36
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:51.599
only person on board, but it
also killed two people that were in mobile

37
00:02:51.639 --> 00:02:55.319
homes on the ground. It turned
into a big fiery situation. There was

38
00:02:55.319 --> 00:03:00.000
a post crash fire. They don't
know why this happened, but it's just

39
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:07.560
another story in what seems like one
every day of these small planes, single

40
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:13.319
engine planes that are just dropping from
the skies. Not to mention all the

41
00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:17.960
other big airline stories, the door
plug flying off, the lady that said

42
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:21.960
that it wasn't a real person on
the plane from last year. I mean,

43
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:24.960
it seems like it all started with
her. Yeah, And it seems

44
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:29.560
like every day or every week,
we've got some big top of the headline

45
00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:35.520
story about some wild ass aviation stuff. We've asked this question a lot with

46
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:38.800
ourselves, like is this a media
thing where this is a thing where media

47
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:44.080
companies that are saying, look,
really be looking for airline news because that's

48
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:47.800
popular now. And obviously we have
our occasional stories of an unruly passenger here.

49
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:52.439
There just another one today that's someone
on a Jet Blue flight. One

50
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:54.960
thing we've really asked multiple times.
I feel like in the last month on

51
00:03:55.000 --> 00:04:00.560
the show, as we've been like
discussing is it happening more often than usual?

52
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:04.159
Are we just seeing it more often
than usual because of our phones and

53
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:09.479
timelines and on the internet all the
time. It's just like anything else.

54
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:12.719
You know, you you you buy
one pair of plaid pants from Instagram,

55
00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:15.959
and then your entire feed is filled
with different companies that sell plaid pants.

56
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:18.759
It's the same way with news stories. I see that on Google, and

57
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:24.079
when I go to Google and I
open up my news page and I've reported

58
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:27.319
on something two days ago, there's
two or three stories that are related to

59
00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:30.120
that, it is self fulfilling.
Yeah, but you look incredible in those

60
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:33.040
plaid pants you have on Thank you
you do, thank you so much.

61
00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:36.079
It's a wild choice on our phone, so a wild choice. But he

62
00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:40.600
pulls it off. He does pull
it off. Hot forever plaid pants.

63
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:43.079
But this is won't believe it?
Why to get the answer. We have

64
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:45.920
our suspicions on what might be going
on, but let's get an answer from

65
00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:48.360
an expert. Joining us now in
the Freak Hotline, the home of the

66
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:54.480
Dallas Maths and Inside Sports Medicine with
too sorrel ninety seven to one the Free

67
00:04:54.600 --> 00:05:00.439
k E g LFM. We're joined
by Dallas Morning News d FW aviation reporter

68
00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:05.519
Alexandra Scores. Good morning, Alexandra, Good morning, Welcome to the Freak.

69
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:10.680
Have you ever have you ever been
on the radio before? I've done

70
00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:15.000
a couple of little hits here and
there, but not not recently. Actually,

71
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:18.279
don't be nervous hands. What stations
have you done hits on before?

72
00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:26.600
A couple with KR and then Texas
Standard, So those are all good stations.

73
00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:29.600
I don't even view them as competitors. So that's good you didn't name

74
00:05:29.639 --> 00:05:31.720
any of the enemy. I have
something for Alexandra for number one. I

75
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:34.879
was kind of surprised, more of
a statement than a question. I was

76
00:05:34.920 --> 00:05:43.120
surprised that the Morning News actually had
a created job for someone with your credentials.

77
00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:48.240
The question is what what qualifies you
as someone that expertly reports on these

78
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:56.879
items, right, I think it's
a We're in a huge aviation market right

79
00:05:56.920 --> 00:06:01.639
now, Southwest and American or headquarters
here and so there's a lot of a

80
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:06.920
lot of poll for aviation and folks
that are just genuinely interested in what's going

81
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:14.839
on. So I've covered business in
North Texas almost a little over two years

82
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:20.199
now, but I jumped into the
beat about a year a little over a

83
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:26.160
year ago now, and it's a
monster of a beat when you have two

84
00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:31.000
major airlines here and then Dallas Fort
Worth International Airport, which is massive and

85
00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:34.680
the second busiest airport in the world. So it's a lot to learn,

86
00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:40.680
for sure. But we've been chugging
along. Alexander, your right about it?

87
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:45.839
Talk about it. Have you ever
actually been on an airplane? Question?

88
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:51.720
Yes, I'm originally from Chicago,
so definitely fly back home every now

89
00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:56.720
and then, and you know,
I fly for you know, vacation,

90
00:06:57.079 --> 00:07:01.279
and you definitely try to get out
and see airlines that I cover and be

91
00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:04.680
ingrained in the communities that I cover. All Right, we got a lot

92
00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:08.879
of questions for you. MUSA start
with this one because this is what led

93
00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:13.720
me to finding you in emailing you
four days ago. Dallas Morning news headlines

94
00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:17.199
small planes are crashing almost once a
month and Dallas Fort Worth killing flyers.

95
00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:24.120
Right, why is this happening and
is this happening more often than usual or

96
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:28.639
is this just something that's in the
news more often than usual? Right?

97
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:34.199
Right? I mean, statistically speaking, it's going down. If you look

98
00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:40.720
at the National Transportation Safety Boards data, we are seeing a decrease. However,

99
00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:44.600
you know, when these things happen, it's reported, you know,

100
00:07:44.680 --> 00:07:48.519
if it's fatal. There was a
really tragic incident with a father and his

101
00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:54.519
two sons that left for a trip
and never came back. Yeah, he

102
00:07:54.560 --> 00:08:00.639
was in North Texas surgeon. So
again, these horrible they're horrible tragedies,

103
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:07.560
and it's just you're inclosed on a
small plane, there's less protocols compared to

104
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.959
you know, a standard commercial fight
which may have more over one hundred passengers

105
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:15.160
on it. You know, there's
a lot more that the FA makes those

106
00:08:15.160 --> 00:08:20.120
flights do. So that's why we
don't see you know, commercial commercial airlines

107
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:24.480
are safe. You know, they
have protocols, there's a lot of checks

108
00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:26.839
that they need to run before they
run one of those flights. But smaller

109
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:31.800
aircraft. It's just you. Obviously, you still are working with air traffic

110
00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:37.159
controllers. You know, there's still
rules, but it's it's smaller and there's

111
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:41.440
more opportunities for something to go wrong. Alexandra Scores from Dallas Morning News joining

112
00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:45.639
US now on ninety seven to one. Okay, so let me ask you

113
00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.919
this. You said that statistics are
going down as far as these smaller aircraft

114
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:56.039
incidents happening, But I feel like
the amount of these stories has increased.

115
00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:00.000
Is it due to a the fact
that I've clicked on a couple of these

116
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:03.799
stories and now the algorithms are are
assuming that I want more of these stories,

117
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:11.559
or has there been some kind of
directive from possibly publishers or editors across

118
00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:13.440
the board that are saying, hey, we need to make sure that these

119
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:18.159
airplane these aircraft stories are being reported
on with maybe a higher frequency than normal,

120
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:22.600
Like it's the hot topic right now, so therefore it gets more attention.

121
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:26.919
You know, I don't. I
mean, I'm sure the algorithm thing

122
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:35.080
is definitely there, but I don't
think it's necessarily coming from media outlets.

123
00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:37.039
I mean, I know at the
Morning News, you know, if there's

124
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:41.759
a fatal accident or you know,
it's something that impacts our community, We're

125
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:46.639
going to report on it because I
think people have a reason to know there

126
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:52.399
was a crash that in Plano,
and you know, it was really obvious.

127
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:56.759
People saw the plane. You know, people ask questions. So I

128
00:09:56.759 --> 00:10:00.399
think we have a duty to kind
of the public and our readers to tell

129
00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:05.200
them what happened, investigate, find
out what we can because they're incredibly tragic

130
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:11.039
situations, especially when they're fatal.
So there's definitely that kind of you know,

131
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:18.759
fear amongst people, like why why
did this keep happening? But again,

132
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:22.639
it is our job to get that
news out and make sure that folks

133
00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:26.799
know what happened. We had one
of your colleagues, Jason Janic along time,

134
00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:30.960
a long time friend of mine,
that was actually on site at the

135
00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:35.960
small plane that crashed in front of
the mother's daughter diner. I guess not

136
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.159
a minor ago, yeah, about
two months ago, and it just seemed

137
00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:43.519
like right around that time, boy, it's like every day more airplane stories,

138
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:46.600
and that led to obviously, I
mean, look, look we can

139
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:50.519
say, like Tiffany Gomez, the
you know that m effort is not real.

140
00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:56.360
Crazy plane lady is what she's been
dubbed as online or whatever. That

141
00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:00.799
did almost start. But planes are
interesting inherently because they're huge things that fly.

142
00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:05.480
It's kind of always awesome. But
here's my question for you now.

143
00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:09.240
But yes, are you gonna ask
Alexander to explain lift to Mike? Uh,

144
00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:13.559
don't make her do this. I'm
not ask her to explain it,

145
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:18.559
Alexander. My question is would you
feel safe flying in a Boeing seven eighty

146
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:26.039
seven Max nine hundred at this point, that's a great question. I actually

147
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:33.360
to the Boning Boeing earnings call this
week, and you know, the FA

148
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:37.159
has done a lot to make sure
that folks are flying. Those are flying

149
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:43.279
again. So I think you know
what our government and what our elected officials

150
00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:46.559
are saying is, you know,
air travel is the safest form of travel

151
00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:52.039
ultimately in the US. And you
know you can see that. The proof

152
00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:56.679
is in the statistics if you look
at we haven't had a major air crash

153
00:11:56.759 --> 00:12:01.759
since two thousand and nine, and
you know it is a safe way to

154
00:12:01.799 --> 00:12:07.840
travel. The FA has done a
lot of checks on those planes. Again,

155
00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:13.879
it's you gotta go with what they're
saying, and you know, at

156
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:18.039
the end of the day. This
is the largest manufacturer. They've run the

157
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:22.200
checks, and you know, I
think it is the safest form of travel.

158
00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:28.200
Do you cover hot air balloons?
I don't. I don't, but

159
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:31.000
it would be that would be cool. That would be an interesting a whole

160
00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:35.440
separate wing of the Dallas Morning News
with all the disasters and hot air balloons.

161
00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:43.679
Alexandra have a question, So the
aftermath of a major plane crash has

162
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:50.639
got to be one of the most
devastating events to have to investigate. Have

163
00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:54.960
you You said, you've only been
doing this for about a year, but

164
00:12:54.159 --> 00:12:58.600
God forbid, if anything like that
happened, would you have any type of

165
00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:03.559
access to be able to report on
the I hate to say it, but

166
00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:07.279
just that that that whole scene of
carnage, because that's a that's something that

167
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:11.600
we never see. We see films
of on on YouTube or whatever, of

168
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:15.159
the aftermath of car accidents. We
see war footage, but that way.

169
00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:20.279
Yeah, but that mystery of the
immediate aftermath and investigation of a plane crash

170
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:24.639
has always just been kind of like
something that better better reported on and never

171
00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:28.759
seen. Is that something that would
ever peak your interest at all to to

172
00:13:28.759 --> 00:13:33.480
to get, you know, to
be privy to what actually goes on in

173
00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:35.919
those investigations. Oh, of course, of course, you know, we're

174
00:13:35.960 --> 00:13:39.720
always trying to investigate. Even look
at like the near miss calls and the

175
00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:46.240
runway incursions that are happening. I
think the probably the one that hoot headlines

176
00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:50.399
the most in the rate last year
was probably the south Last jet and the

177
00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:56.000
FedEx jet in Austin last year.
So when those sorts of things happen,

178
00:13:56.080 --> 00:14:01.639
obviously we're looking for investigative reports.
I hope you know that. You know,

179
00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:03.480
we don't have to report on those
things, right, we want to

180
00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:09.159
hold our elected officials accountable that this
is the safest form of air travel.

181
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:13.159
And you know those incidents don't happen, you know, but when they do,

182
00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:16.320
of course you know we're looking into
it. Given that you're an aviation

183
00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:18.759
reporter, this might be This will
be my last question. If the guys

184
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:26.080
have anything else that's on them is
your favorite alcoholic beverage aviation gin? You

185
00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:30.919
know, I can't say I've actually
ever had it. It's Ryan Reynolds,

186
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:33.600
right, I think it's Ryan Reynolds. She's a ten ger ay girl.

187
00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:37.360
Come on, nah, Yeah,
you do any stuff with drones like the

188
00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:41.159
delivery stuff we got or the future
of personal drones because I'm waiting on that.

189
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:48.399
We've got a retail reporter. She's
amazing, Maria Halkias, who's covering

190
00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:56.240
Walmart's introduction of drones. I actually
covered a drone museum in Cato Mills last

191
00:14:56.279 --> 00:15:01.399
year and they have some cool historic
drones over over there. Well, thank

192
00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:05.480
you Alexander for your time this morning. We appreciate it, and you kind

193
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:09.000
of cleared up the question we'd been
asking asking. You know, this is

194
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:13.759
kind of just it's algorithm based,
man, yea truly, numbers say it's

195
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:18.159
safe for a number numbers say it's
safer than ever. Just like, thank

196
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:20.919
you Alexander for your time. You
can find Alexandra's scores over at the Dallas

199
00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:37.120
for your time this morning. Thank
you have a nice weekend. You two

200
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:43.240
there, she goes, Alexandra scores. What score? That's k oh r

201
00:15:43.279 --> 00:15:46.039
E S y S. Kris.
There's the answer. We've been asking to

202
00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:50.519
ourselves for a month and none of
us did anything about it. She said,

203
00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:52.879
you were right. I said it
was not clear. It was it

204
00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:58.519
was clear. Just because you didn't
didn't land was confirmation you didn't get the

205
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:03.159
points for it. We're we're pretty
much doing better at about most things,

206
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:06.320
but it feels like we're doing worse
at all of them because every single time

207
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:11.879
it's on Twitter and everyone for free. Microcosm of the way this business works,

208
00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:15.679
this business of this world, this
world and the media and how things

209
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:18.679
are reported, and the and the
fact that that we show interest a little

210
00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:22.039
bit of interest in one subject and
the next thing. You know, you're

211
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:26.720
led to believe because of the way
that the algorithms are designed to give you

212
00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:30.759
what they think you want, that
the sky is falling. Well, how

213
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:36.399
are we going to take it back? Turn off your cookies? I don't

214
00:16:36.440 --> 00:16:38.840
know, Kevin, I don't know
the answer, but I'm tired of it.

215
00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:41.279
I want to tired of it too. On a playcepthing for you guys

216
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:45.879
here, all right, this is
this could be your challenger for the Olympics.

217
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:51.279
This is the Enhanced Games. And
they a billionaire, Peter Thiel,

218
00:16:52.039 --> 00:16:55.360
is funding this thing called the Enhanced
Games, and it could be a rival

219
00:16:55.399 --> 00:16:59.440
to the Olympics. And they're going
to allow athletes to use performance enhancing drugs,

220
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:03.400
which they should have baseball on their
on their list of games that they're

221
00:17:03.400 --> 00:17:08.880
going to do that. Here's the
trailer for the Enhanced Games. I am

222
00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:15.440
the fastest man in the world of
broken Usain Bolt's world record, but you've

223
00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:22.559
never heard of me. I am
a proud enhanced athlete. Now we have

224
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:27.279
important allies in our battle for bodily
freedom as we build the first sporting event

225
00:17:27.359 --> 00:17:34.640
that allows performance enhancements and pays all
athletes. When we first announced the Enhanced

226
00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:40.240
Games, the Olympic Committee said we
were a joke, an idea that couldn't

227
00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:45.119
be taken seriously. But venture capitalists
know that the future isn't a joke.

228
00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:52.720
Today, I'm proud to announce seed
funding from investor Christian Angermeyer, PayPal co

229
00:17:52.839 --> 00:18:00.599
founder Peter Thiel, former coinbased CTEO
Bology, Strivivasen, in many other leading

230
00:18:00.640 --> 00:18:04.440
investors. Okay, name the other
leading investors. Okay, then one of

231
00:18:04.440 --> 00:18:08.480
the one of the coin guys or
coin base guys. It's not going well

232
00:18:08.519 --> 00:18:14.519
over here for me. Let's advance
and steroid on my picks. Oh,

233
00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:22.240
this is pretend pretend commercials does sound
like a bayliss Bit pro PD competition featuring

234
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.279
five events swimming, gymnastics, weightlifting, track and field, and combat,

235
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:30.400
which I think they're just gonna shoot
each other. Combat that was the free

236
00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:34.319
game you got with Atari twenty six
hundred. I need to hate combat that

237
00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:38.160
game. Yeah the tanks, right, yeah, find like two tanks.

238
00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:42.599
But then as I matured, I
started liking a little more more a pitfall

239
00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:47.240
guy. It's just pa, that's
all it is. Okay, this sounds

240
00:18:47.319 --> 00:18:51.440
dumb. It does sound real dumb. But when you let it simmer for

241
00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:57.640
a minute, because what's their tagline, Uh, we support science, you

242
00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:03.240
know, they kind of trick you
at the end. I don't know.

243
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:04.720
I don't know. I mean,
look, I'm not gonna want to.

244
00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:11.839
You know, we barely watch and
cover the Olympics. But why why are

245
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:15.519
we all so steadfast on that?
Now? If you're talking about like anabolic

246
00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:19.799
steroids that kill people young, like, I get that, but there's probably

247
00:19:19.839 --> 00:19:29.559
some yeah, probably some middle ground
of enhancing one's performance to make you better

248
00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:33.519
at it, and I don't like
it. It seems like no why because

249
00:19:33.599 --> 00:19:37.079
no, why? Okay, because
it's not good for the body and people

250
00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:41.759
die Okay, that's a good reason. No, But if that is as

251
00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:47.839
science advances being eliminated, then why
not in a world of more choices?

252
00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:51.720
Well that sounds weird. In a
world of more choices, yes, Like

253
00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:55.960
think, for example, Live Tour
you can go get and there's a money

254
00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:59.400
element there. So it's not a
direct comparison here. But if you want

255
00:19:59.400 --> 00:20:03.000
to go play sports that will allow
you to do steroids, that there could

256
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:07.880
be money there if enough people and
enough funding was behind it, and enough

257
00:20:07.920 --> 00:20:10.519
people were like I wanted to go
do that. But who's going to break

258
00:20:10.519 --> 00:20:14.960
the seal two to cover this stuff? To carry it? You know?

259
00:20:15.079 --> 00:20:18.480
I mean there's such a dark cloud
that that that kind of looms over the

260
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:23.680
whole idea of performance enhancing has got
anything that's labeled with that, No,

261
00:20:23.680 --> 00:20:27.119
no legitimate network is going to touch
something like that, right. This would

262
00:20:27.160 --> 00:20:33.119
have to be some online only streaming
thing that you know that which you can

263
00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:37.160
be PayPal guy gets supports and that's
the thing. It could be more profitable

264
00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:42.359
there and then maybe not have the
wide Baseball Like, look, these sports

265
00:20:42.480 --> 00:20:45.200
that I mentioned out there, but
if a big sport were to dip their

266
00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:52.240
toe into that, Baseball was never
more exciting than what everyone was roided up

267
00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:57.839
and bashing home runs now wrong,
right, well, agree, wrong to

268
00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:02.200
do that, cheating, unfair,
We all get all that, well let

269
00:21:02.279 --> 00:21:06.000
off. All the guys are like, yeah, I'll do that, and

270
00:21:06.079 --> 00:21:07.599
I have success, and then some
network did take it. I mean,

271
00:21:08.319 --> 00:21:12.680
the Lift Tour is still trying to
figure out how to get more broad appeal,

272
00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:17.640
you know, and the CW is
certainly not it like they're still trying

273
00:21:17.680 --> 00:21:21.039
to figure that out. But ESPN's
probably gonna bite on that at some point.

274
00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:22.440
If someone like that was gonna bite
on the Lift Tour at some point.

275
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:27.119
The problem is you're going to have
to get exceptional athletes to take part

276
00:21:27.160 --> 00:21:33.799
in this, because if you get
guys that are, you know, Class

277
00:21:33.839 --> 00:21:38.119
A baseball players that probably were never
going to reach the majors and they have

278
00:21:38.200 --> 00:21:42.119
to take steroids just to get as
good as somebody that's already in the majors,

279
00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:47.039
there's no interest in that. You've
got to get record like this guy

280
00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:51.200
claims I'm faster than Hussein Bolt.
You're gonna have to get that. You're

281
00:21:51.200 --> 00:21:53.759
gonna have to got I hit eighty
eighty seven home runs at one hundred and

282
00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:57.440
sixty two game season, I'm faster
than you know what I'm saying. You're

283
00:21:57.480 --> 00:22:02.039
gonna have to get somebody that's already
accept and then take them above to be

284
00:22:02.039 --> 00:22:04.000
better than the guys that are doing
it clean. Otherwise there's no there's no

285
00:22:04.079 --> 00:22:08.519
interest. Yeah. And if you're
watching a one hundred yard dash or one

286
00:22:08.559 --> 00:22:14.039
hundred meter dash, which every one
which one is it? Hundred yard meters

287
00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:19.920
und right, and the winner runs
it in eight eight second whatever the record

288
00:22:21.119 --> 00:22:25.160
right in the record mid to high
nine seconds, and some guy runs the

289
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:29.079
sub nine right, I don't know, I don't do math. Is that

290
00:22:29.279 --> 00:22:34.799
awesome? And you know that they're
completely Ben Johnson juiced up? Like okay,

291
00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:37.559
I guess he's running a little faster
than I saw Bolt run, Like,

292
00:22:37.599 --> 00:22:42.359
what's the real value there? Or
if they break Sergey Boupkaz or whoever's

293
00:22:42.359 --> 00:22:45.680
got the pole vaulting record and they
break it by a foot like that just

294
00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:48.720
hit me? Oh cool? Like
that just hit me. The only people

295
00:22:48.759 --> 00:22:52.039
would be interested in this are people
who are doing steroids themselves, because it'll

296
00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:56.839
be very relatable. And I guess
to think in scream that you ran one

297
00:22:56.920 --> 00:23:02.799
hundred meters yards faster any human ever
has done it. Yeah, okay,

298
00:23:02.799 --> 00:23:07.200
there's that's somewhat interesting. But I'm
talking more overall, made sure our professional
