You're listening to the downbeat on ninety seven to one the Freak. So at
eight o'clock where you give you a chance to win concert tickets numbers two one
four eight one seven seven eight seven one ninety seven one call her text in
is today around eight ten you'll have a chance to dupe the ding Danny famously
knows every member of every band. That's the dumbest thing. No, I
don't name of band. Let's try him pick one AC DC, Oh well
yeah he knows that or okay, yeah, there's many different incarnations, but
I could give you the lineup that I grew up with. Give us as
many as you got, thankus. And Malcolm Young on guitar, Brian Johnson
on lead vocals, Cliff Williams on bass, and Phil Rudd on drums.
I get it in some of that. Who are some others that Queen well
obviously Bond Scott, who's Olive Queen, and then others Queen Roger Taylor,
Freddie Mercury, Brian May and the other dude the drummer. Come on,
man, it's early. I need to warm up. He needs to warm
up. Kevin get off his ass. What is this thing going? Down.
I'll have time to warm up. Eight ten, Okay, the questions
are ready. You should be ready to go, though, I just never
heard like imagine Nolan Ryan. In the third inning, it will start going.
I need to warm up. Probably gives up two home rounds. It's
only the third inning. I didn't get warmed up. That's not our problem.
Should have woke up earlier today, Danny, I'll do better. Get
warmed up. But I don't know what his window is. Would you say
it's it's it's eighties hair bands. Is metal bands with the bands that I've
been listened to when I was, you know, in middle school and early
high school. Well, I used the Worldwide Internet developed in October of nineteen
eighty three. Forgot the bass player Andy Taylor's the this Duran Duran right,
Roger Taylor is the rummer John Deacon John DK There. It is okay,
But I looked up hard eighties metal man trivia, and you feel like that
is a fair because I don't know I have the best chance at those bands,
and I do you know he asked me the members of Blink one eighty
two, right, Robbie can't help you. So we're gonna attempt to dupe
the dingu and you the caller will be able. I'll want to read the
question, and you the caller will say he'll know this or he won't know
this. You could also set an over under a number of members. I
would know because there's something that I could just make change the rules of Well,
that's not what it is. It's not a name of a band named
the members. That's not what we're doing. It's other stuff. It's like
which guitar is filled in on this album? Oh yeah, yes, okay,
yeah, I woke up early and I was ready for the show today.
This is yesterday. You just woke up, he just woke up.
I love it. It'll be fun. So I am eight am dup the
dingu. You can call in your chance to win tickets to see Alice Cooper
and Rob Zombie. That's the tie in. Because you guys were ye asking
me who's in Alice Cooper's band yesterday, I'm like, I don't know.
You know what my favorite thing about Alice Cooper is and he ate a bat
No, it's azzy. Kevin knows my snake. It's my favorite thing about
Alice Cooper. Electric six covered one of his songs. No that he just
loves golf. Oh, he's a big golf guy. I didn't know that.
He commercials for Callaway. He's kind of a weird connection with Good Records
here in town. Is really Alice Coop's always doing stuff with Crispin. Yeah,
they're buddies. Yeah, I'll just findt his documentary, I think,
Oh, is that right? I didn't know that or helped do something with
it. Yeah, he's a big Arizona guy. It goes to a lot
of diamondback games and he plays golf in Phoenix. Didn't he do a bit
with a snake? Am I making something up there? Yeah? Yeah,
he always had a big giant python around his neck at some point in his
concert. And Rob Zombie is the King of Gore? Is he? What?
What he about Gore? Then he make it a lot of like creepy
movies, but they're very Yeah, he does have horror. He directs horror
movies, real low budget. That's why I know about these guys, slashies.
The point is it's not just trivia about them though, right, it
gets trivia about no, not about either of them, a lot about eighties
rock and I don't know so some of these might be you might be like,
dude, I don't know. I've barely heard of that band, you
know, like, I don't know. That's the point that you need to
be an actor, because the callers are going to either agree or disagree with
Danny's statement. Right, I'm gonna give the question, and they will.
They will determine if they think he'll get it right or not. Okay,
that's good, that's good. I'm nervous they'll be nervous. Dude, you
don't get to go to the concert. You're gonna shine. It's time for
the most important thing in the world. Me can go, yeah, buy
a ticket, my tickets tomorrow when they go on sale. Or talk to
Golden. I doubt she listens. Well, we have a woman named Golden.
It works here. It's just the sweetest So good morning Golden. Hi,
Golden, I hope you have a great day to day. Thank you
for everything you do around here. This building doesn't work without Golden, no
questionable if it works with Golden, but it definitely wouldn't if we didn't have
sweet Golden around. And we love you and you're a bright light. She's
a national treasure kind of is ah We had a big one this morning right
here in the Metroplex. I'm gonna read this directly from the Twitter account of
the Irving Police Department. At approximately two am this morning, officers located a
stolen vehicle in the thirty two hundred block of North belt Line Road. Officers
attempted to initiate a traffic stop, but the vehicle took off. A police
or excuse me, A pursuit began and officers chased the vehicle with an unknown
number of occupants into Dallas. The driver of the vehicle lost control near I
thirty five Woodall Rogers wrecked, and unfortunately the four occupants died as a result
of the crash. We were in the very early stages of this investigation,
have limited info. It tells you where media can stage and their PIO will
be there soon, Public Information Officer. North belt Line. That's all the
way out there east of town. Yeah. So sometime right around two am
we had a while we were all sleep and we had a doozy of a
police chase. I understand, all the way from Irving that is not too
far from here to downtown Dallas. Basically it's about fifteen miles uth less and
I got in the car this morning, as did JJ, who lived a
little south of town, said why And it wasn't brutal traffic, but there
was a lot of birthday cake. There was a lot of red and blue
flashing light and looked like chaos. You did the same this morning, right,
Yeah, I did the rare loop around through excuse me, through downtown
that slingshot you up on the tollway and yeah, right there at Continental there's
no less than ten ten police cards, ten cones flares. I mean,
they had the whole thing done. I will credit them. I guess,
I don't know what Shortly after two am, I suppose this all went down,
but traffic was still flowing pretty good. Was a little slow down on
the on ramp, but yeah, to the toll way a little bit,
only because people were trying to exit Continental and they were confused. But I
rubberneckted a little bit, didn't slow down, don't worry, didn't contribute to
the traffic backup. But I did want to look over and I saw the
vehicle and it looked like I couldn't tell if it was a vehicle. Yeah,
it was one of those crunch absolutely annihilated vehicle and it had been on
fire, you could tell. But it was a real scary looking scene.
And then I heard on the radio that, you know, all four passengers
had died. So it was one car with four people in it, yes,
that were running from tops, yes, and tried to either hit that
exit at a high speed or whatever they were trying to do. But I
couldn't help it. I just and we can talk about this next week if
I was curious, But I just watched that new NASCAR Netflix thing, Full
Speed, I think, or whatever it is. I watched all of it
pretty good, and as they're wont to do, they you know, highlighted
a couple of big crashes that happened, and a couple of these NASCAR crashes
are nuts with flips and you know how they know they catch air and when
they hit the infield grass and all this, and that's what this car looked
like as far as the carnage at the end of it. And a NASCAR
is designed for this sort of thing, with roll cages and a five point
harness and helmets. And I just couldn't help. But think of you essentially
being in a NASCAR race, getting in the worst crash possible, and you
have a standard three or a shoulder harness seat belt on. That's all you
have. And that's what the wreckage of this car looked like. That was
was found today right by Continental Eggs. That started in Irving two am this
morning. Brutal four people. So that's gonna be shut down for a while.
Probably it looked like they were on the verge of getting it, you
know. Yeah, they were at the tail end of it. They'd had
three hours to contend with it when I when I passed. And dude,
it's amazing. We were talking about this yesterday. If you drive a car
in a big city every day of your life, your adult life, and
you make it to the age of seventy, you're pretty damn lucky man,
because just yesterday I'm driving driving home and dude, just right on thirty massive
car fire, just a car, just a blaze. Yeah yeah, and
it just living in a big city. You see that stuff. It's very
regular, just to see some crazy situation happen on our highways. It is
so by far the deadliest activity that we all undertake pretty much every day in
our lives, right Yeah, outside of maybe like bad habits, you know
that we might have slow yeah, but yeah, I mean every time you
get in the damn car, you never know and you often are mindless when
you're driving. Well, that's the thing about the driving a car in a
big city. There's things you can do to I don't know, stop doing
crack or smoking cigarettes or or things that are choices, But you don't really
have a lot of choices when it comes to getting somewhere that doesn't involve a
giant two ton piece of metal going seventy five miles an hour directly at another
car doing the same thing and you're like three feet from each other. Yeah,
if you just trust that that person's not going to just drive into you,
and if you you know, and it's most people make it, oh
yeah yeah, but it's completely out of your hands too in some cases totally.
I mean I use this copy when we talk Franklin Frankel sometimes and no
joke. If you're in an accident called wrankle and rinkle like, they will
legit have your back. But at one person in state of Texas, one
person injured every two minutes and nine seconds, one reportable crash every fifty seven
seconds. In the state of Texas, there's about to be another one.
Hold on, oh, since we started this segment, there's been what four,
five, six, six crashes and an injury at least two three and
another one just happened. Do you find that you're more vigilant when you drive
now that you're a little bit older than you were at twenty three? Do
you think about the gondom? Yes, the myriad possibilities, things that are
out there that are out of your control, that you just kind of got
your head on a swivel at all times since I do, well, I
think you're driving style. Yeah, yes, there's two sides of that.
Yes, my personality, I'm very risk averse. Now. I was thinking
of it just yesterday. I walked on the stairs when we go to the
parking lot, and I always have a free hand. Basically it either uses
the rail or as close to the rail, because one time twenty years ago,
I startled on stairs and kind of fell down, and I'm like,
I could have broke my neck right there, Like I respect stairs, knowing
that it's it's the risk of me breaking an arm increases by fractions of percentages,
So why not why have you know, have my hands in my pockets
anyway? Just a slight percentage increase in my safety. I respect it driving
absolutely, but I think different people, whether it's just your persona or experience
or whatever, drive differently, drive better or worse. I used to drive
super aggressively. I still drive fast, but I've drive God, that thing
was a beautiful vehicle. We were safe. Who knew and we got there
that could go one five, We got there lickety split. Just kidding,
thank you. Prosper there on my roster finding a new vehicle, I will
take the tollway, the whole way. That's a big safe vehicle. But
yes, no, I the X factor is just was completely out of your
hand. You can be going seventy on, you know, sixty five whatever
on there and just get sideswiped by someone else who's distracted, of which everybody
is. You know. What made me kind of more hyper aware of not
necessarily what I was doing, because I'm a pretty buy the book driver.
I'd rarely go insanely over the speed limit. I don't weave in and out
of traffic to try to make up for sixty seconds that I lost. You
know, Yeah, but I am pretty aware of things that are going on
around me. More I paid more attention to that. You know what got
me in that mindset. I don't know if you were around the ticket back
and this far back, but Mike Rener used to work on the Morning Zoo
back in the eighties and he worked with the dude named Libella. He was
one of his co hosts, and Libella I think he was driving on thirty,
just normal man driving somewhere on thirty and it's something like a freaking forklift
or something fell off of an overpass and landed on him and killed him.
I remember, just driving home hearing that story. Yes, and I think
about that. I every damn overpass I think of, or that I that
I encounter, just because of that moment, I instinctively just kind of glance
up to make sure there's not a crane or dangling. Yeah, just to
have your foot cover in the brake, just in case you need to slow
down or whatever. I do that a lot. Yeah, when you go
over like the big bridges or you know, the huge on ramps that are
very high, do you ever think of just what if this thing collapses?
Yeah? I tried not to think about those things, but you have to
kind of, right, But there's something about too. That look when you're
in your twenties, where for whatever reason, I thought I was a cat.
It's like, man, it doesn't matter. I don't think you're a
cat anymore. I'm just think I'm a cat anymore. Okay, I've learned
that there's just one life. What animal are you back? I don't know.
In my twenties, I thought I could die eight times and then really
start taking the world seriously. And you grow up and you realize, no,
it's just one Well hold on, hold on, stop, let me
stop for a Yeah, do we need to stop with car chases? Like
with helicopter technology that we have GPS technology, why are we still having police
chases? Because okay, yeah, they stole the car and they're paying the
ultimate price for it because they're dead. But like, why do we have
to do police chases anymore? Police chasers are effing exciting too, trust me,
number one fan of seeing it happen live. I will watch California police
chases that pop up on my Twitter feed like, oh, because this is
America. Kevin and American law enforcement do not like to take a beat.
But it puts other people at risk, I know, And they've tried to
minimize that and tried to enforce some you know, different types of protocol when
it comes to engaging in high speed chases. And I don't know if it's
you know, based on what state you're in or whatever, but they've tried
to do that, but they just don't want to disengage for they want to
get that criminal now, not wait till later. For guilty people getting away
with something. I'm way more okay with that than one innocent person losing their
life because of something that they just happened to, you know, be on
the road. At the same time, it's just not worth that there's at
least grease, not risky for you should take the risk. California restricts pursuits
to cases involving serious offenses. Massachusetts generally prohibits high speed chases. So yeah,
there's an Oregon in Washington, California, Massachusetts, Oregon, Washington at
least have a no chase law that is not cut and dry completely. But
yes, yeah, I just read something last week about uh, GPS darts.
What's a GPS Do they shoot a GPS dart in your car? Oh,
that's that's pretty bad asset, Like, let's get you later. Right,
Yeah, they'll get the car. They might not get if and that
that doesn't really work if it's a stolen car. Right, they'll find the
car, but the individual can get out of there. But yeah, if
the police are just sort of slowly lurking in the area and they know exactly
where this GPS tracked car is. But I wonder is the next step just
like a laser can you laser dot something? Can I laser paint? Probably
so where every police car if something happens, Bam, I shoot a laser
laser paints your vehicle. Toroy Industry's laser paint. This may be a good
idea. It's actually a good Yeah, I like it. Maybe laser paint.
Yeah, laser paint, and you shoot the car with laser paint and
it's essentially a GPS dart and then you just follow. I'll go to get
the brand news for Industry's laser paint app. Don't make us down at another
app available wherever you get your favorite podcast like Rushing the Passer Kevin's Rushing Pass
Rush Specialist podcast. Yeah, laser paint and then yeah, you can track
them just like that. It's just the GPS star but it's all digital.
Yeah, because you think like if you let even if it's a car full
of murderers, you know, let's say like, yeah, like this is
this accident that happened this morning. This just chase that in the people dying
in downtown Dallas terrible overnight. You know, thet's say, these guys are
are wanted for a murder. Look, man, the fact that you've had
that they're on the police radar and have been identified and being chased, and
they know what car it is, They're not gonna just immediately once they get
away, or if you in the pursuit, they're probably not in the mindset,
hey let's go do more murdering now, right, You're probably not going
to be doing any more murdering. Yes, to remain off their radar,
stay hidden, stop murdering, right, And if they're you're not chasing them,
they don't know their vehicle has been Soroy Industry's laser painted. Right,
they think they're clear, They're like, dude, we got away. Then
they're gonna start following traffic laws, minimizing danger to everyone. They're gonna go
home, probably to their murder home base, and guess what, you're not
gonna you're not gonna swat one wasp. You're gonna be taken rate to the
whole nest, the whole hornet's nest. And then then you get the housing
soroy Industry's wasps pray, You kill them all waspspray. Yeah. Yeah,
it's a spray that neutralizes criminals. Yeah, a big giant can pretty decent
pizza topping too. If you guys ever tried that honey was just one sprits,
Yeah, just to see. I can assure you that at Andrew's American
Pizza Kitchen, you will not wasp spray pizza is not an option, nus
you want to, I mean they might go custom in the back well anyway,
Yeah, two am this morning, a stolen vehicle and irving. There
was a pretty big police chase all the way into Dallas right there. If
you're dealing with any traffic right around I thirty five, would all rogers,
specifically that Continental exit. Hopefully it's cleared up now. But four occupants perished
as a result of this very very high speed crash. So we will get
you more info, we find out anything else. Yes, if they come
back to life, No, they're dad. I would cut into a break
and if if all four of them resurrected, yes, and they're just karthieves,
you know, we don't that's a pretty don't know that they're four murderers,
big offense. They're why don't wish them? What happened to me?
Yeah? And well, yeah they're all Karthy's. I guess if they're on
from Johnny loss trip to Cleveland? What's coming up next? Mike uh Sports
Sports at seven. I think you got a couple angles that you want to
hit. But I will say I woke up this morning to massive international sports
racing news that my jaw hit the floor when I read it. And we'll
kick that around next right here on ninety seven, won the Freak
