00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:05.160
<v Speaker 1>And now it's time for Basis week Day up Day

2
00:00:05.480 --> 00:00:09.720
<v Speaker 1>featuring veteran news anchor kt fun tweets. Here are the

3
00:00:09.800 --> 00:00:13.240
<v Speaker 1>important stories he's currently tracking from around the world.

4
00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:16.640
<v Speaker 2>Yet all the data from the US Postal Service saying

5
00:00:16.679 --> 00:00:20.480
<v Speaker 2>that dog attacks on melmen and women have reached a

6
00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:23.320
<v Speaker 2>seven year high. They reported more than six thousand dog

7
00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:25.039
<v Speaker 2>attacks in twenty twenty four alone.

8
00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:30.800
<v Speaker 3>Wow, how many six thousand? That sucks? And that's just reported.

9
00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:31.800
<v Speaker 3>That sucks.

10
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:35.399
<v Speaker 4>Like I think of shark attacks more than any other attack.

11
00:00:35.479 --> 00:00:37.000
<v Speaker 4>By the way, when I was in the ocean, I

12
00:00:37.039 --> 00:00:40.000
<v Speaker 4>was not even in shark infested waters, especially not dangerous

13
00:00:40.039 --> 00:00:41.240
<v Speaker 4>shark waters.

14
00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:43.240
<v Speaker 3>Meaning turks and caicos.

15
00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:46.640
<v Speaker 4>But the whole time I'm snorkeling, the whole time, I'm

16
00:00:46.679 --> 00:00:47.520
<v Speaker 4>thinking about a shark.

17
00:00:47.679 --> 00:00:48.240
<v Speaker 3>Is that right?

18
00:00:48.359 --> 00:00:50.880
<v Speaker 4>The whole time, I'm not able to relax or do

19
00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:53.079
<v Speaker 4>anything else but think about sharks the whole time.

20
00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:54.399
<v Speaker 3>That sounds really fun.

21
00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:56.679
<v Speaker 4>I'm thinking about myself, and then I'm looking at my

22
00:00:56.840 --> 00:00:59.359
<v Speaker 4>children swimming in the ocean and my wife. I'm like, yeah,

23
00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:01.880
<v Speaker 4>we're all about to die a shark attack, and so

24
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.439
<v Speaker 4>on my mind, I think there's a million shark attacks

25
00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:06.480
<v Speaker 4>every year because of the movie Jaws.

26
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:08.640
<v Speaker 3>But based on those stats.

27
00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:10.799
<v Speaker 4>You're like, you're way, way, way more likely to get

28
00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:13.319
<v Speaker 4>attacked by a dog than a shark if you're a

29
00:01:13.359 --> 00:01:17.560
<v Speaker 4>postal carrier, right, And most of those postal carriers don't

30
00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:20.640
<v Speaker 4>swim like they're not swimming from one place next in

31
00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:23.120
<v Speaker 4>the ocean. So what about Ben looked over and his

32
00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:25.760
<v Speaker 4>wife was actually swimming with the shark. She was grabbing

33
00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:27.519
<v Speaker 4>two different sharks by their shark.

34
00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Fans, and they were just like, wee, there's a dog

35
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:34.680
<v Speaker 2>buy an awareness charity, so maybe we should start donating

36
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:35.000
<v Speaker 2>to that.

37
00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:38.040
<v Speaker 3>Let's get them on, let's get their spokesperson.

38
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:41.480
<v Speaker 4>Katie, you were saying pit bulls are responsible for most

39
00:01:41.480 --> 00:01:42.359
<v Speaker 4>of these dog attacks.

40
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:44.439
<v Speaker 2>I think some of them. I would actually like to

41
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:48.319
<v Speaker 2>know the type. It is mostly in the Midwest, we're seeing, Oh,

42
00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:50.239
<v Speaker 2>what was that up to that tornado alley?

43
00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:52.760
<v Speaker 5>I will say it's weird. So Simon is a very

44
00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:55.719
<v Speaker 5>sweet dog, but it's the postal, the guy that drops

45
00:01:55.719 --> 00:01:58.560
<v Speaker 5>off our mail every single day. He goes insane and

46
00:01:58.599 --> 00:02:00.439
<v Speaker 5>it's just him and I don't know if it's in

47
00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:02.719
<v Speaker 5>the dog's mind where it's like I don't want this

48
00:02:02.760 --> 00:02:04.719
<v Speaker 5>person here every day. He still thinks he can get

49
00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:07.280
<v Speaker 5>away with it, and that is that what's going through

50
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:07.680
<v Speaker 5>their mind?

51
00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:07.840
<v Speaker 3>Right?

52
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:11.400
<v Speaker 4>Well, have you ever seen that thing where it's two

53
00:02:11.479 --> 00:02:14.879
<v Speaker 4>dogs going at each other, like with a door, a

54
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:17.039
<v Speaker 4>glass door between them, and they're like ah, and they're

55
00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:18.719
<v Speaker 4>showing their teeth and the minute you open the door,

56
00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:22.199
<v Speaker 4>they just totally chill. Yeah, Like, some some dogs are

57
00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:24.960
<v Speaker 4>not about that life. I've got one living at my

58
00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:27.960
<v Speaker 4>house all right, and and but some dogs are and

59
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:29.840
<v Speaker 4>I don't you know, if they're protecting their house, maybe

60
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:33.879
<v Speaker 4>they worry that this person is a danger. But the

61
00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:37.000
<v Speaker 4>dog that will actually attack and not just bark, that's

62
00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:39.439
<v Speaker 4>this terrifying thing. And I truly feel bad for those

63
00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:41.759
<v Speaker 4>postal workers to have to deal with that. And dude,

64
00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:44.759
<v Speaker 4>just bringing up pit bulls like we've done that in

65
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:46.680
<v Speaker 4>the past on our show and you get overwhelmed with

66
00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:47.360
<v Speaker 4>text message.

67
00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:47.680
<v Speaker 3>I get it.

68
00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:51.080
<v Speaker 4>There's there's great pit bulls out there, and you can

69
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:53.400
<v Speaker 4>set a baby, a toddler and a pit bull's lap

70
00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:54.400
<v Speaker 4>and it may do nothing.

71
00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:56.840
<v Speaker 3>I get it. Everybody should try that tonight, I get

72
00:02:56.919 --> 00:02:58.439
<v Speaker 3>I get it, But I.

73
00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:01.520
<v Speaker 4>Don't know if if you have one of these dogs

74
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:07.080
<v Speaker 4>that is super aggressive and potentially dangerous. I mean, should

75
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:10.159
<v Speaker 4>you be responsible for that dog's actions? Like, in other words,

76
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:13.520
<v Speaker 4>if a dog attacks somebody, why wouldn't the owner of

77
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:16.159
<v Speaker 4>that dog be held responsible for whatever the act is.

78
00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:18.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean they are in terms of like if you

79
00:03:18.960 --> 00:03:19.719
<v Speaker 3>assume them or what.

80
00:03:19.759 --> 00:03:22.759
<v Speaker 2>We only hear about these stories when it's Dallas Cowboys players.

81
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:26.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah right, so, but yeah they should.

82
00:03:26.240 --> 00:03:28.520
<v Speaker 6>And I think also the other part of the conversation,

83
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:33.240
<v Speaker 6>and people get very worked up about this, I agree

84
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:38.680
<v Speaker 6>with the sentiment that cocker spaniels are, you know, a

85
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:42.439
<v Speaker 6>bigger angry nuisance than a pit bull. I agree with that.

86
00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:46.199
<v Speaker 6>The problem is that no cocker spaniel has ever mulled

87
00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:49.400
<v Speaker 6>anyone to death. You know, we're talking about the ferocity

88
00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:52.000
<v Speaker 6>and the size of the animal. It's like there's people

89
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:56.639
<v Speaker 6>that have chimpanzees as pets and it's all finding good

90
00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:58.159
<v Speaker 6>until the chimpanzee goes, you know.

91
00:03:58.120 --> 00:03:59.759
<v Speaker 3>What, this sucks. I'm gonna tear this person.

92
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:02.879
<v Speaker 6>And they can do that because of their size and

93
00:04:02.919 --> 00:04:05.000
<v Speaker 6>their strength and all these things. And so it's like,

94
00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:08.360
<v Speaker 6>I'm not saying any dog is worse than any other dog.

95
00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:10.520
<v Speaker 6>I'm not saying that at all. And I agree with

96
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:13.840
<v Speaker 6>you some of these poodles or bigger jerks and bite

97
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:17.959
<v Speaker 6>you more. But it's about I mean, dude, if a

98
00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:20.920
<v Speaker 6>lion gets a hold of you, you're done. That's all

99
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:22.720
<v Speaker 6>there is to it because of the size and the

100
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:23.879
<v Speaker 6>ferrocity of the am.

101
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:27.800
<v Speaker 4>Right, And they're still animals, and so they're really impossible

102
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:30.480
<v Speaker 4>to predict one hundred percent of the time, especially these

103
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:32.040
<v Speaker 4>ones that play poker all the time.

104
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:33.560
<v Speaker 3>There are a lot of pictures of that.

105
00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:36.560
<v Speaker 2>Dallas was sixth in the cities with the dog attacks

106
00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:39.680
<v Speaker 2>in twenty twenty four to forty three on postal workers.

107
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:42.560
<v Speaker 2>I would also say, like you're talking about the baby

108
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:45.199
<v Speaker 2>and the pit bull thing. To me, that's just kind

109
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:48.000
<v Speaker 2>of the equivalent of Okay, I went to the zoo

110
00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:49.560
<v Speaker 2>and we had a snake handler and.

111
00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:51.639
<v Speaker 3>We let the uh. I mean, I've seen this a

112
00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:52.160
<v Speaker 3>million times.

113
00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:55.480
<v Speaker 2>At Polyphonic Spree Christmas shows, they have a big snake

114
00:04:55.560 --> 00:04:58.120
<v Speaker 2>out in the hallway and the snake will Okay, the.

115
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:00.079
<v Speaker 3>Kid wants to take a picture with a snake, you

116
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:03.160
<v Speaker 3>know whatever. I'm like, Yeah, something bad could happen.

117
00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:05.759
<v Speaker 2>And anytime you put yourself in a situation where something

118
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:09.600
<v Speaker 2>bad could happen, like driving, yeah, you know it could happen.

119
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:11.480
<v Speaker 2>And that's just like the whole point of this. I

120
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:15.319
<v Speaker 2>know that's not a real great philosopher speech for me.

121
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:18.680
<v Speaker 4>Would you please pull that and send it to Chris

122
00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:20.199
<v Speaker 4>Arnold so he could play that on his show?

123
00:05:20.319 --> 00:05:21.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that'd be amazing.

124
00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:24.560
<v Speaker 6>I mean, I think the point you're making is that

125
00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:28.160
<v Speaker 6>the guys from Jackass make bad decisions. I wasn't exactly sure,

126
00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:29.920
<v Speaker 6>but it was excellent. Well, it just could happen.

127
00:05:30.040 --> 00:05:32.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, didn't you play golf one time with one of

128
00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:33.920
<v Speaker 4>our advertisers.

129
00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:38.240
<v Speaker 3>Dude, Jeff Stewart? Yep? Great drawing it in. Yep, the

130
00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:39.839
<v Speaker 3>great Jeff Stewart, phenomenal athlete.

131
00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:44.040
<v Speaker 4>All right, Coming up next, we'll get into the wildlife news,

132
00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:47.160
<v Speaker 4>speaking of animals and attacks and scary things. We have

133
00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:49.879
<v Speaker 4>an update on the Garland python. You need to hear

134
00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:50.560
<v Speaker 4>this story now
