Yeah, person, I. 18 00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:55.000 Kind of have to on purpose because of the what 19 00:00:55.079 --> 00:00:57.560 you agree to when you get an account. 20 00:00:57.200 --> 00:00:59.679 And then well what even oh you mean the privacy 21 00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:01.920 thing and all that. Yeah, yeah, I didn't mean that. 22 00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:05.120 It was just like it was more about, oh, another 23 00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:08.200 social channel. Yeah, that one does seem to be on 24 00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:13.079 the rise, where I would say Facebook is definitely on 25 00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:13.799 the slide. 26 00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:15.920 Yeah. And I've also read that. 27 00:01:17.879 --> 00:01:21.280 TikTok is way more generous in pushing out your content. 28 00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:26.280 It is not as stringent as Facebook and Instagram is. 29 00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:29.920 They're very there. Their algorithm is much more to liberal. 30 00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:30.680 Like, sure, we'll post that. 31 00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:32.079 Yeah, we'll push it out to everybody. 32 00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:33.200 Let's see what happened. 33 00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:36.879 Right instant and I had something weird on our YouTube channel. 34 00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:37.480 They ever seen this? 35 00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:37.799 JB. 36 00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:41.680 I posted a video, just a short on YouTube, and 37 00:01:41.719 --> 00:01:44.480 I was like, in exactly, I know this because it 38 00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:47.599 said twenty two minutes later after I posted the video, 39 00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:51.319 we had one point five thousand views twenty two minutes later, Okay. 40 00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:56.200 And then when I got up yesterday morning and looked 41 00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:59.560 at it, our number our views had gotten down to 42 00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:00.840 one point too. 43 00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:05.439 I'm like, how's that happen? Unwatched it. 44 00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:08.039 I guess it's funny because I've I've looked at like 45 00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:10.680 analytics and stuff for people I was helping with social 46 00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:14.280 media stuff, and it's it's always a perfectly round number 47 00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:19.680 four zero point fives. Yeah, so I have so much 48 00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:20.639 smoking mirrors there. 49 00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:21.599 I agree. 50 00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:24.120 And anybody that tells you they know what they're talking 51 00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:26.039 about whose last name isn't Zuckerberg. 52 00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:30.439 They're lying. They I know, no one knows, right, No. 53 00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:34.919 One people out there hustling social media business. They don't 54 00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:37.120 know any more than you and I do, you know 55 00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:40.960 what I mean, They just they don't. So anyway, I 56 00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:44.800 saw an interesting question on the Austin reddit thread, and 57 00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:46.879 Tricia and I have quite a bit of experience with it. 58 00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:49.639 It's it says, what's it like to fly out of 59 00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:51.879 the south terminal at ab I A. 60 00:02:52.840 --> 00:02:58.919 I'll tell you in one word, wonderful. Amazing, Yeah, wonderful. 61 00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:01.400 So a lot of people may not know this, but 62 00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:06.919 there's a very very very small one gate terminal on 63 00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:10.199 the other side of the runway at Berkstrom. 64 00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:12.800 You go around. Have you ever been where like the private. 65 00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:15.840 Jets and stuff where they meet where they meet their 66 00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:16.960 airplanes and stuff. 67 00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:20.759 Right side, So on that side. 68 00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:24.360 There is a very small, little south terminal that it's 69 00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:26.759 if you ever saw the TV show Wings, yeah, back 70 00:03:26.759 --> 00:03:29.680 in the day. It's very very much like the Wings airport. 71 00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:33.840 There's one ticket gate and you go in and there's 72 00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:37.719 no there security, but there's never a line, never anybody there. 73 00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:42.400 You park right there, yep, don't have to pay. I mean, 74 00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:44.680 it's well, I guess you did immately. But you park 75 00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:46.719 right there and you just walk across the parking lot 76 00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:48.759 and you walk right into the terminal and you go 77 00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:49.199 right through. 78 00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:52.560 And it's old school JBS. You have ever seen airports 79 00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:54.680 where you have to walk outside and then get go 80 00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:58.520 on the steps up to the airplane. Yeah, there's no jetway, 81 00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:04.199 Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. And they've got really good tacos 82 00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:05.000 at that taco truck. 83 00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:07.599 Oh my god, Santa gets all excited about the tak I've. 84 00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:09.800 Never flown out of that, so it's just like one 85 00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:11.319 one of the carriers using that. 86 00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:15.039 Yeah, it was Frontier and Allegiant, and we flew Allegiant 87 00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:17.600 a lot because they had NonStop flights to Omaha that 88 00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:20.800 were super cheap, and so we would fly out of 89 00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:21.959 that terminal often. 90 00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:25.240 And it was race so simple. 91 00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:27.600 There's none of the craziness of trying to find a 92 00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:30.920 parking place in the giant garages or deciding how far 93 00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:33.519 out you want to park, and then the huge line. 94 00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:36.040 I mean, it was just like literally within five minutes 95 00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:36.920 you're at your gate. 96 00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:42.399 Yeah, but unfortunately that's closing down that South terminal. I 97 00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:45.399 don't know the exact date when that's happening, but it 98 00:04:45.560 --> 00:04:47.240 is shut it down. They're going to use it for 99 00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:49.759 something else, and they're going to make the Allegiance they 100 00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:51.839 were going to make move to the main terminal there 101 00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:54.600 like now peace out, we're done, Allegiance gone. Yeah, and 102 00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:58.240 then Frontier, I think, is moving over to the other side. 103 00:04:58.279 --> 00:04:58.480 Yeah. 104 00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:01.399 They couldn't give a Agent or Frontier, one of them 105 00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:04.759 their own dedicated gate. So really basically every time they landed, 106 00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:06.839 they'd be like, Oh, what gate are we going to now? 107 00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:09.519 Which because it's so big at the main part of 108 00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:13.360 the airport. God, it was so convenient and so easy. 109 00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:18.680 Now I've read the airport is expanding again, right, that's 110 00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:20.839 I think that's why they're I think they're tearing that 111 00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:23.519 down because they're expanding and they're having to use. 112 00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:27.480 That area for more runway or more maybe more buildings 113 00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:28.279 or something out there. 114 00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:30.439 I mean, there was construction going on when I was 115 00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:32.800 there last week. I don't know what it was, but 116 00:05:32.879 --> 00:05:34.439 there's definitely construction going on. 117 00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:36.600 But it'd be nice if they could put a train 118 00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:38.639 track out there and you could take the train. 119 00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:41.560 To the airport. No kidding, that would be nice, right. 120 00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:45.240 So anyway to answer that Reddit, person's question. Yeah, flying 121 00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:47.480 out of the South terminal is awesome, and it's not 122 00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:49.680 Unfortunately it's not gonna be here for much longer. 123 00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:50.879 Nope, which is a bummer. 124 00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:53.959 Coming up today, Trisia is gonna fill us in with 125 00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:56.199 some news.

And JBI 154 00:07:09.879 --> 00:07:12.879 chose this story because one in particular, I think you're 155 00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:16.040 going to be very happy about. Blocking a signed or 156 00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:20.560 marked bike lane is a fifty to seventy five dollars fine, even. 157 00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:21.680 For food delivery people. 158 00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:26.680 They do have some leniencies in place for food delivery 159 00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:27.399 for us. 160 00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:31.519 That's not going to that's that. So I live in 161 00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:34.879 Travis Heights and I use the Congress Avenue bike lanes, 162 00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:38.839 and you can't use those by lanes there is it's 163 00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:44.120 all filled with Uber and Lyft pickups and Favor and Uber. 164 00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:46.079 He's it equipment loading and unloading. 165 00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:49.839 It's out of control. And then they you know, it's 166 00:07:49.879 --> 00:07:53.160 such a mess down there. You know, they built all 167 00:07:53.240 --> 00:07:57.519 those fancy stores, you know during COVID, all the high 168 00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:02.560 end stuff and music lane, although that didn't really catch 169 00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:06.319 on did it, and there's there's nowhere for them to 170 00:08:06.360 --> 00:08:09.720 load and unload. So you got these eighteen wheelers on 171 00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:13.319 Congress Avenue just trying to get their stuff in there. 172 00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:17.120 It's a mess, and so there's going to be someone's 173 00:08:17.160 --> 00:08:19.800 going to get killed, hoppy, because you if you're on 174 00:08:19.839 --> 00:08:22.439 a bike, you got to get go out into traffic 175 00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:24.920 to go around the cars. And then there's people going 176 00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:28.959 in and out and food delivery drivers running in and out. 177 00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:30.120 Someone's gonna get hurt. 178 00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:33.519 So is the bike lane like literally the lane behind 179 00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:35.720 the parked car or in front of the parked car 180 00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:38.039 on Congress Avenue. 181 00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:41.120 Back into your spot, right, so the oh yes, yes, 182 00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:44.440 right okay, And then so people are then just hogging 183 00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:46.720 that lane to drop off their ramo or pick up 184 00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:48.840 their food or whatever exactly. 185 00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:52.360 They're saying that there is clarity on delivery and passenger 186 00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:56.320 zones and like music equipment drop offs and stuff like 187 00:08:56.360 --> 00:08:59.200 that regarding bike lanes as well. So I don't know 188 00:08:59.240 --> 00:09:01.240 what that clarity is, but it sounds like you're saying 189 00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:04.360 a fine isn't really gonna People are probably just betting 190 00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:06.320 that they're not going to get caught in the three 191 00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:08.120 minutes that it takes them to rent in and drop. 192 00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:11.519 Off the de they we you know, we've passed all 193 00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:14.519 these added bike lanes and people are using it as 194 00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:17.679 it's they see it as a loading zone. Yeah, oh 195 00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:21.120 I'm out of traffic. I'm in a bike lane. Right, 196 00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:22.559 it's kind of made it worse. 197 00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:26.039 Actually, Oh jaman, you've been riding bikes in Austin for 198 00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:28.799 thirty years? Has it gotten better or worse? Because I 199 00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:32.960 mean back eventually worse. I was going to ask from 200 00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:36.200 pep By. People are just like individuals? 201 00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:36.960 Are they more? 202 00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:39.240 Are they nicer now than they used to get a 203 00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:40.960 bunch of rednecks back in the day? 204 00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:46.080 That? Yeah? That as the off the road? Yeah? 205 00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:48.879 Are there is there more tolerance for the cyclist? 206 00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:51.320 Yeah? Probably. 207 00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:54.679 I could probably thank all the the scooter people for that, 208 00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:58.039 because we hate them. 209 00:09:57.360 --> 00:10:01.240 They hate the people. The bike people are off the hook. 210 00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:02.279 We hate the scooter people. 211 00:10:02.440 --> 00:10:05.039 It's like all the people on electric devices that are 212 00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:08.399 not a bicycle are now a public enemy number one. 213 00:10:08.679 --> 00:10:10.639 Yeah. So now we're off the hook a. 214 00:10:10.639 --> 00:10:12.799 Little bit, We're more and more loved, like oh luck, 215 00:10:12.840 --> 00:10:15.879 he's peddling. 216 00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:19.200 Wow, But has the tolerance gotten better? 217 00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:22.879 I would say that the tolerance and acceptance is better, 218 00:10:23.159 --> 00:10:27.960 but the congestion is obviously worse. And then it's like 219 00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:32.480 I said, we passed all these measures to put in 220 00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:35.879 additional bike lanes, but people see that as a loading zone. 221 00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:38.519 It's that part of it is worse. 222 00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:42.799 It was safer riding on South Congress without when we 223 00:10:42.840 --> 00:10:43.960 didn't have a bike lane. 224 00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:46.200 Can I think you mentioned electric bikes and stuff. Can 225 00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:48.639 I tell you something that really pisses me off? And 226 00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:52.360 I think it's bad parenting. If you have a fat 227 00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:54.000 kid and you give them an electric. 228 00:10:57.039 --> 00:11:00.039 To day, if your kid's over. 229 00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:07.399 And you get them an electric bicycle, they should CPS 230 00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:09.000 should take the child away from you. 231 00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:11.879 I'm serious.

I think some of those 249 00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:04.519 have to be pedal assists to use a bike line 250 00:12:04.600 --> 00:12:05.399 or anything like that. 251 00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:08.120 Now they make them in mountain bike versions too, right 252 00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:08.480 like that. 253 00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:11.720 Yeah, that's cool.

It does not feel 276 00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:15.039 like it's been thirty three years. 277 00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:19.279 They've added to it and improved it, for sure, they've. 278 00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:21.840 Done a lot to it.

They were the 314 00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:11.200 guitars thing. Statue things were. 315 00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:13.440 Just that were randomly around Austin. 316 00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:15.600 Are we done with that? Is that because there's one 317 00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:16.679 at the airport. 318 00:15:16.360 --> 00:15:18.279 They moved I think they moved them all to the airport. 319 00:15:18.519 --> 00:15:19.159 I think it was. 320 00:15:19.519 --> 00:15:23.320 It was a big fundraiser where they different artists or 321 00:15:23.399 --> 00:15:25.960 groups made those, and then they were auctioned off. 322 00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:27.360 Those ones that. 323 00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:32.080 Are outside they're inside like baggage claims. 324 00:15:32.480 --> 00:15:34.360 No, but I'm talking around the city.

This is way back in like 342 00:16:23.639 --> 00:16:24.639 two thousand and seven. 343 00:16:24.840 --> 00:16:27.200 I thought that was an ongoing thing in Austin. They 344 00:16:27.240 --> 00:16:29.279 would keep putting them up. So if you know what 345 00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:31.399 Austin needs to do, I love this idea. Steal it 346 00:16:31.399 --> 00:16:34.120 from a buddy of a buddy myn named Detroit who 347 00:16:34.159 --> 00:16:37.240 does a morning radio show. He went on a campaign 348 00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:43.519 for years to get streets in Detroit named after musicians, 349 00:16:43.960 --> 00:16:49.879 like he got Bob Bob seeger Way, you know, and 350 00:16:49.879 --> 00:16:52.879 then he got all the motown He's He's single handedly 351 00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:56.639 like went to the city council put the plan together. 352 00:16:56.879 --> 00:16:59.000 How cool would it be in Austin to have a 353 00:16:59.000 --> 00:17:02.080 bunch of streets named after local Austin bands? 354 00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:06.119 Right? It is? They did change second to Willie Nelson, 355 00:17:06.960 --> 00:17:07.920 but no one says. 356 00:17:07.640 --> 00:17:10.359 That, right, right, But I mean it'd still be cool 357 00:17:10.400 --> 00:17:14.200 to just go local local, like Willie's a global thing, 358 00:17:14.839 --> 00:17:15.119 you know. 359 00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:16.440 But if you had. 360 00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:19.640 Bob Schneider Street, Yeah. 361 00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:22.359 Bob Schneider Avenue, that'd be kind of cool. 362 00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:25.960 No one likes it, although if I was, I've gone 363 00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:29.319 back to Detroit.
