Speaker 5: for because our buddy Sandlor is in Italy right now.

Speaker 5: It was really it was in an alley. Yeah, it
Speaker 5: was so anale sandwich Florence. It was in Florence, and
Speaker 5: Jared told me to send him the name of it.

Speaker 1: Andrew's American Pizza Kitchen highly highly recommended for dinner tonight.
Speaker 2: But right now it's time for this.
Speaker 3: And now it's time for basis Sweet Day of Day
Speaker 3: featuring veteran news anchor kt FN tweets. Here are the
Speaker 3: important stories he's currently tracking from around the world.
Speaker 5: Greet fifteen, eight m New Year's Day, a man drove
Speaker 5: a truck around a car that was blocking a police
Speaker 5: car that was blocking Bourbon Street. Then he sped into
Speaker 5: the crowds of people injuring at least thirty five that
Speaker 5: numbers may be gone up killing. I think fourteen is
Speaker 5: the number they have now. I haven't seen this. I
Speaker 5: have seen fifteen, but I saw fifteen yesterday, But so
Speaker 5: they're saying fourteen officially that's the last I saw, Okay,
Speaker 5: so it's always been between ten and fifteen. He then
Speaker 5: opened fire died in a shootout with police. They did
Speaker 5: find some IEDs, some improvised explosive devices in the truck.
Speaker 2: They also found an ISIS flag in the truck rolled up.
Speaker 2: Wasn't it on his truck too? Might have been on it?
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, but Texas license plates. They immediately call the
Speaker 5: owner of the car Texas lice plates, and it's a
Speaker 5: guy who I believe was in Florida and had rented
Speaker 5: this truck to him using a company called.
Speaker 2: Tutro t U r o's We've used that before. Okay, Well, it's.
Speaker 1: An interesting business model, essentially like VRBO for cars.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and you know, I've seen people do this with
Speaker 5: RVs and things like that too.
Speaker 2: More on Turo in a minute.
Speaker 5: So the guy is forty two year old shamsu Den
Speaker 5: Bihar Jabbar, forty two year old US citizen.
Speaker 2: He had served in the army for many years. Was
Speaker 2: honorably discharged.
Speaker 5: But he had apparently made a bunch of recordings just
Speaker 5: hours before the attack in which he said he was
Speaker 5: wanting to kill his family and some family members, his
Speaker 5: wife's his ex wife's husband is. He had done some
Speaker 5: interviews with the media at New York Times and some
Speaker 5: other places and said that he had been acting erradically
Speaker 5: in the last few months. They had filed a restraining
Speaker 5: order against him. So you got a stepdad in the mix.
Speaker 5: Here there's a fifteen and twenty year old daughter, daughters,
Speaker 5: and they had basically been preventing him from seeing them
Speaker 5: because he had been acting crazy.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 5: So he had converted to Islam apparently, And there you go.
Speaker 2: So he was in the army for many years.
Speaker 5: Hold on a second, I wanted because I saw a picture.
Speaker 5: I think he converted to Islam a long time ago.
Speaker 2: Oh was it a long time ago?
Speaker 5: Because I saw a picture of when in twenty thirteen
Speaker 5: when he was active military and he had the Islamic
Speaker 5: name on us.
Speaker 2: So I made an assumption.
Speaker 1: I saw him doing I thought this was like twenty seventeen,
Speaker 1: you shot a video as a realtor.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw that. Seemed like a normal dude in that. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I think it said.
Speaker 5: He claimed in August twenty twenty two that he had
Speaker 5: been working on an accounting firm Deloitte and made one
Speaker 5: hundred and twenty K a year, but there was an
Speaker 5: email suggesting that from the first marriage, something about the
Speaker 5: marriage that worried about foreclosure of the house and some
Speaker 5: things like that.
Speaker 2: Either way, he was mad.
Speaker 5: He was looking for carnage, and it sounds like last
Speaker 5: minute and I guess maybe last hours decided, you know what,
Speaker 5: I'm just going to go ram into Bourbon Street. So
Speaker 5: who knows. He could have been drunk, you know, hard
Speaker 5: to even know. But there were apparently a series of
Speaker 5: recordings of him talking about killing his family, and we
Speaker 5: have confirmations of undetonated bombs. Correct, Yes, man, this was weird.
Speaker 5: So I was in Broken Bow and my son, who
Speaker 5: pledged the fraternity at Alabama, he was like, you know,
Speaker 5: the next day, we're hearing all this news. Everyone's waking
Speaker 5: up to it.
Speaker 1: And he said some of his pledge brothers were there
Speaker 1: and they were on Bourbon Street and he was like,
Speaker 1: and one.
Speaker 5: Of them's not answering his phone. And as the day progressed,
Speaker 5: he got the news that, sure enough, he was one
Speaker 5: of the guys that had passed away.
Speaker 2: Just awful, so sad, just awful.
Speaker 5: So I guess nineteen years old, it's a lot of
Speaker 5: young people.
Speaker 2: Man, there's an eighteen year old girl. Oh that that
Speaker 2: was the girl? Was that the girl who snuck out?
Speaker 2: Do you hear that story?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 2: That story was awful. That's so sad.
Speaker 1: Yes, there's a girl who snuck out. Her family didn't
Speaker 1: know she had left. She snuck out to go have
Speaker 1: fun with friends. And she from Mississippi.
Speaker 2: I heard her mom.
Speaker 4: Yeah, her mom told her not to and then she
Speaker 4: was like crying on the phone, like whatever your parents
Speaker 4: tell you to do, like, obey your parents. We're telling
Speaker 4: you that for a reason. So I just came in
Speaker 4: our iHeart email. And AE at another radio company was
Speaker 4: there and died from here a in New Orleans, Okay,
Speaker 4: fortunate odyssey.
Speaker 5: And then also the brother of a TCU football player.
Speaker 5: His name is Tiger Beck. He's twenty eight. He was
Speaker 5: a college football player at Princeton. He was there too.
Speaker 5: And then it's just some of the notable names of man.
Speaker 2: In the video footage of it.
Speaker 5: I mean it looks like he's going seventy down a street,
Speaker 5: you know, like that where you wouldn't expect to see
Speaker 5: a vehicle. Yeah, and I guess he ran into a
Speaker 5: crane or something that was in the middle of the street,
Speaker 5: because if he hadn't done that, he would have been able.
Speaker 2: To keep going. Jeez, I mean it would have been
Speaker 2: way worse.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And so they were putting up some The reason
Speaker 5: he was able to drive around a cop car is
Speaker 5: they were putting up some other or they were working
Speaker 5: on constructing these other barriers that would go there. Do
Speaker 5: you remember when the Jones family, I think Charlotte and
Speaker 5: Jerry Jr. In the backup car. They they were in
Speaker 5: those barriers that come up from the ground from underground.
Speaker 5: They were installing some of those because they're gonna get
Speaker 5: an influx of traffic for the Super Bowl next month.
Speaker 5: So that's what was going on there, and that's why
Speaker 5: they just had cop cars working as your barrier down
Speaker 5: Irvin Street, and he just drove around it and Rome
Speaker 5: took off. Now in Las Vegas, a thirty seven year
Speaker 5: old man was in a Tesla cyber truck and it
Speaker 5: was a car that was also rented by that company, Touro.
Speaker 5: We've just learned in the last ten minutes. They now
Speaker 5: say that he shot himself in the head before the
Speaker 5: bomb went off. Wow, And he had fireworks and gasoline
Speaker 5: and things like that.
Speaker 2: He was a Green Beret. He was a Green Beret
Speaker 2: for many years. Yeah. I think he was currently stationed
Speaker 2: in Germany and home on leave.
Speaker 5: Really, there's some h This is where finding details and
Speaker 5: getting everything triple confirmed is so important because there's conspiracy
Speaker 5: theories or I don't even know conspiracy. There's just a
Speaker 5: little talk going around that these guys might have crossed
Speaker 5: pads in their military history, which should make you go, uhh,
Speaker 5: that's the biggest coincidence of all time, rented cars from
Speaker 5: the same company, and but it's just not confirmed. The
Speaker 5: other thing that I want to say right now, it's
Speaker 5: just a weird day. I eighty five right now in
Speaker 5: South Carolina is being shut down because of a bomb
Speaker 5: threat and eighteen wheeler. Now one guy is in custody,
Speaker 5: so they've got the guy, but they haven't swept the truck.
Speaker 5: So a big freeway right now in South Carolina for
Speaker 5: a last hour hour and a half has been at
Speaker 5: a standsteal and you can see the eighteen wheelers. They're
Speaker 5: just just waiting on the SWAT team to go in.
Speaker 5: And you know, I don't know what you douse, you
Speaker 5: cut the red or the white. You know, we've seen
Speaker 5: it in movies forever, a mission impossible style. But just
Speaker 5: a lot of weird stuff going on right now to
Speaker 5: start the new year. Man, I wonder if the events
Speaker 5: of New Year's Eve inspired someone to do something more,
Speaker 5: you know, when they start talking about copycat stuff, like
Speaker 5: maybe this thing that's happening in South Carolina wasn't gonna happen,
Speaker 5: but someone got inspired or motivated or whatever term you
Speaker 5: want to use by what they saw. I think it's
Speaker 5: also important to now, like we won't be on the
Speaker 5: air tomorrow. I bet by Monday we will have a
Speaker 5: long list of more details that are important to all
Speaker 5: three of these stories.
Speaker 2: You know, then we can kind of discuss that. Thank
Speaker 2: you for the news, Kevin.
Speaker 1: All right, coming up next in the Big Finish, we're
Speaker 1: gonna have some sports catch up, just some of the
Speaker 1: sports stories you probably need to catch up on and
Speaker 1: catch up for him next
