Speaker 1: So good. They got five different styles of pizza that
Speaker 1: they've mastered. They have an awesome bar, and they feature
Speaker 1: Rollertown beer Works. We like that they got a great
Speaker 1: selection on tap. That's our brewery. But anyways, go see
Speaker 1: for yourself. Right there in the heart of Plano at
Speaker 1: Preston Plano Parkway, it's Andrew's American Pizza Kitchen. But right
Speaker 1: now it's time for this.
Speaker 2: And now it's time for Basins week Day up Day,
Speaker 2: featuring veteran news anchor kt fon tweets. Here are the
Speaker 2: important stories he's currently tracking from around the world.
Speaker 3: Well, let's just talk talk about the storms. We did
Speaker 3: this a little bit earlier in the show, but here's
Speaker 3: the total number of people that didn't have power as
Speaker 3: of this morning. Forty seven thousand people with power, and
Speaker 3: a lot did hit ninety thousand overall for a bit,
Speaker 3: but this, you know, a lot of those temporary. As
Speaker 3: I was watching this, really I knew this is one
Speaker 3: of those events where on Saturday Sunday night we're going
Speaker 3: to get some storms and it's pretty undeniable. And I
Speaker 3: do kind of have a theory that every time that happens,
Speaker 3: it seems to not be as bad as the ones
Speaker 3: that do sneak up on you and then, but that
Speaker 3: could just be the way you're thinking about it. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So I had a couple of screens going on because
Speaker 3: the basketball game was not great, So I had Channel
Speaker 3: five on one on my little tiny TV, and then
Speaker 3: i'd Channel eight on the bigin So Pete Delkas was
Speaker 3: in a jacket off situation. Yeah serious, and he kept saying,
Speaker 3: you know these please take this serious. Eighty mile per
Speaker 3: hour wins possible and storms not everywhere, but eighty miles
Speaker 3: per hour that is just as dangerous, if not more dangerous.
Speaker 3: Than a tornado, and.
Speaker 1: They're saying things like, keep in mind, a level two
Speaker 1: tornadoes only sixty five miles an hour, so understand these
Speaker 1: are very powerful.
Speaker 3: Win I'll say the tree that got uprooted in my
Speaker 3: backyard and fell over and caused chaos and my house
Speaker 3: in Richardson was a year ago, maybe it was two
Speaker 3: years ago. It was eighty one mile per hour win. Whoa,
Speaker 3: they tracked straight line win. Wow coming at You have
Speaker 3: a root rot on the tree made it pretty easy
Speaker 3: for the tree to get up rooted. Make sure your
Speaker 3: trees don't have root rot.
Speaker 1: I love root rot talk.
Speaker 3: So I didn't notice though, And they've got the timer
Speaker 3: like when it's gonna hit your spot and you're kind
Speaker 3: of watching it, give you get the graphic. Ten thirty
Speaker 3: is my time here locked in?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: And then I just kind of see it's getting quieter, and
Speaker 3: I'm like, O, hey, is that the camp before the storm.
Speaker 3: But as I'm watching Pete Delk has delivered this on
Speaker 3: Channel eight, I realize his enthusiasm is waning. And it's
Speaker 3: not that he's been on the air for about forty
Speaker 3: five minutes talking about this. He's getting tired and said,
Speaker 3: I think it's starting to not be as bad as
Speaker 3: he thought.
Speaker 1: You're exactly right, and keep in mind, so that the game,
Speaker 1: they cut out of NBA coverage because the game was
Speaker 1: over and it's just Steven A yelling. So they go
Speaker 1: to full storm coverage at nine, twenty minutes before and
Speaker 1: Pete does not do the Sunday news. Yeah, so he's
Speaker 1: up there on a Sunday. They were all up there,
Speaker 1: they're all uphold team. He goes on at nine. At
Speaker 1: ten o'clock, they do the reset and he leads off
Speaker 1: the news. So there's no news, it's just weather coverage.
Speaker 1: We still haven't seen Teresa Woodward yet.
Speaker 3: So it goes for.
Speaker 1: Another twenty minutes. So he's been on straight for like
Speaker 1: forty minutes, and the storm just keeps getting weaker and
Speaker 1: weaker and weaker.
Speaker 3: So we've got a couple of reporters out. We've got
Speaker 3: one in our car not far from me, and then
Speaker 3: we've got the guy over at the BUCkies in Rono. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and then Pete makes a joke that, oh, that's a
Speaker 3: pretty common landing spot for our reporters lately, and he's like,
Speaker 3: they're going to get food and hang out in a
Speaker 3: nice place, which, by the way, yeah, actually yeah.
Speaker 4: Bro, if this storm is really bad, I want to
Speaker 4: be where there's a nice bathroom. Matt, thank you.
Speaker 3: But they keep keep kind of going after them, and
Speaker 3: they're like, he could hit it any minute, nothing's happening, okay,
Speaker 3: And I'm like, then he's got Jesse and he's got
Speaker 3: some other girl tracking the wind. The wind speaking, that's
Speaker 3: the big thing on this storm. The straight line wins right,
Speaker 3: could get up to eighty mile per hour. Let's go
Speaker 3: over to Addison Airport and Jesse goes, yeah, it's just
Speaker 3: cocked it at three miles.
Speaker 4: Prourh my god.
Speaker 3: Then I started laughing.
Speaker 2: I was like, tell the TV off, we're done.
Speaker 4: Here, dude.
Speaker 1: At one point they're showing the map coming down and
Speaker 1: I'm watching it's about to hit Alan and they're showing
Speaker 1: it and they're showing it, and then and then Pete's
Speaker 1: lives in kind of West Plano. Just got a text
Speaker 1: from the wife. She said, it's really just a lot
Speaker 1: of rain, I know. And he was so beaten.
Speaker 2: Dude.
Speaker 4: Okay, So I'm in Bishop bar right. We had gotten
Speaker 4: home around nine thirty, so I think it hit at ten.
Speaker 4: It was insane, like the lightning driving home was crazy
Speaker 4: and then when it hit it sounded horrible, Like it
Speaker 4: was scary. Yeah, we lost power for maybe a full minute.
Speaker 1: And let's just say different parts of the area got
Speaker 1: like I got spared in all and you got spared
Speaker 1: in Richardson. Yeh, Fan and County. We were just talking
Speaker 1: about that, Barrett. They had twisters. Yeah, like they actually
Speaker 1: had tornadoes. So there's and you mentioned earlier there's a
Speaker 1: lot of power outages. But I think there was so
Speaker 1: much social media attention of hey, this will be the
Speaker 1: biggest storm of the year leading up to it. It
Speaker 1: puts all the legitimate people on blasts. Yeah, and they
Speaker 1: got to be ready. And it's one of those things
Speaker 1: where you don't want the storm to deliver to the height. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you don't want that to happen. But man, they've commandeered
Speaker 1: all this programming and now it's just the airs going
Speaker 1: out of the BLUEFW.
Speaker 3: Airport clock sixty eight month per hour wins like Grayson
Speaker 3: County seventy six month per hour. But it just wasn't
Speaker 3: as quite as bad as people thought it would be.
Speaker 3: But it was fun to watch. I absolutely get so
Speaker 3: revved up when coverages on dad stuff.
Speaker 1: Was it really? It really kind of brings my family together.
Speaker 1: Me and my wife way into it. My kids are
Speaker 1: making fun of us because I want him to get
Speaker 1: in the storm shelter. It's The Ben and Skin Show
Speaker 1: ninety seven point one.
