Speaker 1: And now it's time for Basis week Day up Day,
Speaker 1: featuring veteran news anchor kt fon tweets. Here are the
Speaker 1: important stories he's currently tracking from around the world.
Speaker 2: Write a story in the Dallas Morning News and every
Speaker 2: other outlet in the nation. Researchers have found that Dallas
Speaker 2: and Fort Worth are sinking at a faster pace than
Speaker 2: other comparatively large cities.
Speaker 3: Dunt, dun, dun. Okay.
Speaker 4: Anytime I hear something like this, I think, I think. Okay,
Speaker 4: there's been a bunch of digging, like things have been
Speaker 4: removed from beneath the soil, Like, say it, it's it fracking?
Speaker 3: Is it digging for oil?
Speaker 4: What is happening beneath the Earth's surface that's causing that?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 3: Yeah? What's making this metroplex be a sinkhole? De mayo?
Speaker 4: And it could also be uh water issues? Like are
Speaker 4: you guys familiar with the town Kyle?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Oh is that the one that was for sale?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 3: Are they try to get the Kyles there?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: They always try to get all the Kyles there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's one of the fastest growing cities in America.
Speaker 3: Okay, all of Kyle's which one is it full of? Kyle.
Speaker 4: It's full of Kyle's and people not named Kyle, and
Speaker 4: they do not have the water reservoirs to support the
Speaker 4: new people, and so they are frantically trying to figure
Speaker 4: out how to get enough water to Kyle to support
Speaker 4: all the people that are moving in. Now that's a
Speaker 4: good problem to have from the standpoint of Wait, our
Speaker 4: city is growing, all this money's coming into it. But
Speaker 4: then at the same time, like, oh my god, we
Speaker 4: can't handle all these people.
Speaker 3: I was thinking of like coach of town, broken bows
Speaker 3: like that.
Speaker 4: For a minute. They were like, how are we going
Speaker 4: to sit? Like there's so many cabins now, Yeah, the
Speaker 4: infrastructures not what we need. And so getting water from
Speaker 4: underneath the surface, fracking, all these different kinds of things
Speaker 4: that are happening underneath the surface can cause that sinking.
Speaker 3: Okay, And how about this.
Speaker 4: I saw a story the other day that big conspiracy
Speaker 4: that there is a there's there are massive cities beneath
Speaker 4: the earth surface. Are massive things being built for the
Speaker 4: uber rich in case there's like a nuclear armageddon or something.
Speaker 3: Have you ever heard that?
Speaker 4: Absolutely uh to call it the Denver Airport.
Speaker 3: Denver Airport.
Speaker 4: I heard that the Adelson's bought the Mavericks to move
Speaker 4: them to an underground city.
Speaker 3: Okay, and Atlantis, come on, man.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and a lot of people on local sports talk
Speaker 4: radio are talking about it and it seems plausible.
Speaker 2: Yeah, look, this is not.
Speaker 4: So.
Speaker 2: What's weird about this is that we're so inland, like
Speaker 2: Houston is also listed on this. Yeah, they have a
Speaker 2: legitimate threat of a hurricane hitting them every single year.
Speaker 4: The erosion of coasts are real. But this this article
Speaker 4: is very clear and here's the money quote from this article.
Speaker 4: In my opinion, a broader spectrum of major cities are
Speaker 4: experiencing major a major subsidence at rates that need immediate attention.
Speaker 4: And then I just thought, there ain't a single one
Speaker 4: of us who's going to change any of our day
Speaker 4: habits to help do anything.
Speaker 3: Also, we don't know what to do. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 4: You know who else is on that list though that's
Speaker 4: also inland, is Austin and Santonio. In fact, I believe
Speaker 4: Austin Santonio or shrinking or lowering or whatever that term is,
Speaker 4: at a rate faster than Dallas is No.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no no. They specifically said Austin's not but
Speaker 2: Austin's on the list. Absolutely, Okay, So it's a Texas
Speaker 2: thing that's part of it. There is the Gulf of
Speaker 2: Mexico and what is it called?
Speaker 3: Now, these colors don't run bitch the golf. I think
Speaker 3: it's called the Gulf of Trump.
Speaker 2: Charlotte's in there, though, it's you know, Detroit is in it.
Speaker 2: It's sinking a little bit.
Speaker 4: But do you know what else Detroit had didn't they have? Well, no,
Speaker 4: Flint's not that close. The Detroits have the Detroit I mean.
Speaker 4: And when it happens inland, what they're concerned about is flooding. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and that's about and that's what Charlotte is not far
Speaker 4: from Asheville, and Asheville just got decimated flooding.
Speaker 2: Do you guys remember the story from like twenty eighteen
Speaker 2: or twenty nineteen, big story that came out about how
Speaker 2: if the Lake Louisville levees failed, Yes, downtown Dallas could
Speaker 2: be in trouble in a major flooding event.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I thought about that the minute I saw this headline.
Speaker 4: That making me so nervous, can you see? And we
Speaker 4: immediately think of Katrina, right, think of my wife because
Speaker 4: she raises so much.
Speaker 3: Hell she does. Man, you don't want you don't want
Speaker 3: her levees break? Hey? What is the levee? What's the
Speaker 3: on a female? Hey?
Speaker 4: Man?
Speaker 3: For seven eight seven one nine? Someone?
Speaker 4: You want to put that out there before Mother's Day? Yeah,
Speaker 4: it's Mother's day, dude. Come on, hey, girls, show me
Speaker 4: your levee break family show man. Damn is it down there?
Speaker 4: Hey man, I'm just being kevin.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, see, because if beavers are at the damn Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: So when the water was to come into the city,
Speaker 2: we're going to blame that on the fracket.
Speaker 4: When the water was to come into the subject the
Speaker 4: other story that I had were talking there are no
Speaker 4: other stories.
Speaker 3: Oh that's so we gotta make this go another three minutes. No, no,
Speaker 3: we don't. I think what we should do.
Speaker 2: I'm a pretty big fan of the Today Game, okay,
Speaker 2: and I think if we got some of that all okay,
Speaker 2: that would really do this.
Speaker 4: But I agree, what were some of the other cities
Speaker 4: on the line. We're going to put the Today Game
Speaker 4: inside of you next. Don't miss it. It's coming up
Speaker 4: in just over three minutes. It's coming up on the
Speaker 4: Beninskin Show. Thank you for listening,
