Even if they would 14 00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:36.439 not have been able to pull off what was once 15 00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:40.119 again another come from behind victory that you just rarely 16 00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:42.479 ever see, it still would have been worth it, just 17 00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:44.039 because you know, I want to watch my team play. 18 00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:46.079 But I took your advice, Scott. I did get a 19 00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:48.280 little bit of a of a of a quick nap 20 00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:50.840 in and I felt like, you know, it paid off. 21 00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:53.240 I had a good balance and yes it did work out. 22 00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:56.320 So thank you for your your for your encouragement yesterday. 23 00:00:55.880 --> 00:00:59.039 So power me through. I'm so glad you made it, dude, Yeah, 24 00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:00.679 because that's it and it works. 25 00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:02.159 And again, I miss. 26 00:01:02.039 --> 00:01:05.040 So much, you know, so many sports events because no 27 00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:07.439 one told me any of that, and it was like, 28 00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:09.599 I hate that I missed that stuff, and in the 29 00:01:09.599 --> 00:01:11.480 Super Bowls that I missed. But I thought about you 30 00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:12.719 last night when I went to bed. I was like, 31 00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:14.640 I wonder if Nick. I almost because I was gonna 32 00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:16.400 text you to see if you're gonna make it. But 33 00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:17.799 I'm glad you got to see the pacers. 34 00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:20.920 I made it and it was it was well worth it. Yeah. Yeah, 35 00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:22.959 all right, So we've got an update on traffic and 36 00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:24.760 weather coming your way here just a couple of minutes. 37 00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:27.400 We're gonna have a lot on the on the docket 38 00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:29.159 today if you will a lot to get to. We 39 00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:32.359 will have Mayor Craig Greenberg. He'll stop by at eight o'clock. 40 00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:35.840 Oh good. Yeah, looking forward to that conversation. And that's 41 00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:38.840 been a I would say my first week here. That 42 00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:41.040 has been the biggest story. I think that has been 43 00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:45.359 consistent throughout our conversations, and that is just making sure 44 00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:48.200 that not only are they gonna hold people accountable who 45 00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:50.719 break the law, do things that you can't do in 46 00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:53.840 the Highlands on Saturday nights, well into the evening, early 47 00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:58.000 into the morning. But it's it's more so preventing it 48 00:01:58.040 --> 00:02:00.359 from even getting to a point where what we saw 49 00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:03.799 the last couple of weeks even can even happen. So 50 00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:06.359 we'll talk to Mary Greenberg at about eight o'clock. And 51 00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:09.960 I didn't realize this, but last night Craig met with 52 00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:14.560 the the some business owners and neighbors in the area 53 00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:17.680 in a private meeting and hopefully he can give us 54 00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:19.520 a little bit of a little bit of info as 55 00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:21.120 far as as far as how that went. So we'll 56 00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:24.240 do that around eight o'clock. And look, I'm telling you 57 00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:28.400 sometimes in the last I don't know really since twenty sixteen, 58 00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:31.520 there have been there have been some moments where I'm 59 00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:34.759 following something on social media, like the rest of the country, 60 00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:37.199 and I stopped to think, is this real? Is this 61 00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:41.639 really happening? Is this real life? And yesterday was one 62 00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:44.120 of those days when it comes to maybe the most 63 00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:48.000 powerful individual in our country, the President, Donald Trump, and 64 00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:50.560 maybe the richest man, or at least one of them 65 00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:55.240 in the world, Elon Musk, and the back and forth 66 00:02:56.599 --> 00:03:00.159 social media fight, if you will, I mean like it 67 00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:03.759 It's almost something you see eighth graders in middle school 68 00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:06.879 that are beefing with each other, just public jabs over 69 00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:11.639 social media. So we'll certainly get into that. And I mean, 70 00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:15.240 it's really happening, and it's certainly a big talking point. 71 00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.560 But who would have thought that these two hegoes, these 72 00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:22.439 two guys would potentially butt heads, and you know, it 73 00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:24.879 gets to a point where they're not exactly on the 74 00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:27.879 best of terms. So I don't know if there were 75 00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:29.479 any odds out there as far as how long it 76 00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:32.840 would last, but I would say the under was probably 77 00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:35.800 the right play given where things are right now. So again, 78 00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:39.759 we'll get into that a lot throughout these next roughly 79 00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:42.599 four hours. We've got sports coming up to and I'm 80 00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:45.319 telling you, guys, when it comes to my Pacers, I 81 00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:49.280 don't know if people realize just how how crazy these 82 00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:52.599 come from behind victories have been so that I. 83 00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:54.599 Love it when people get jacked about their teams. Yeah, 84 00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:56.919 when they have good nights like that, I mean, that's awesome. 85 00:03:56.960 --> 00:03:58.759 I mean, and it's not just my Pacers, I mean 86 00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:00.719 the Louis of Cardinals getting it so today in super 87 00:04:00.719 --> 00:04:03.080 regional action over a Jim Patterson Stadium, I know we'll 88 00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:05.919 talk about that this morning, Scott, so yep. Should be 89 00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:07.960 a good Friday. Happy Friday, everybody. We made it to 90 00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:10.319 the weekend, or at least close to it. We're getting there. 91 00:04:10.639 --> 00:04:12.560 Stick around your first update of trafficking weather coming up 92 00:04:12.599 --> 00:04:16.040 right here, right now on news Radio eight forty whas. 93 00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:19.199 It is five fifteen here at Kentucky. This Morning News 94 00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:22.519 on news Radio eight forty whas. Take us with you 95 00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:24.920 wherever you go. Listen live on the iHeartRadio app. Also 96 00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:30.680 listen live at whas dot com. I'm learning on the 97 00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:35.399 go here, and I should have realized, well, thank you. 98 00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:39.439 What I mean, though, is I'm learning that it's impossible 99 00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:42.279 to perfectly predict the weather. But because I mentioned it 100 00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:46.360 throughout the mornings now often, I mean, if you, if you, 101 00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:48.839 if anybody sees me out and you just hey, what's 102 00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:51.680 what's the expectations for the forecast today? I got you 103 00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:54.759 because I say it many times throughout these four hours. 104 00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:57.680 And yesterday the rain that we had been talking about 105 00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:00.000 really since Wednesday just it never it never showed up, 106 00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:03.600 never arrived. And I'm certainly not complaining, but I feel 107 00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:06.120 like I was a liar yesterday. But that's that's an overreaction, 108 00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:10.000 right because obviously it's impossible to uh to predict it perfectly. 109 00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:12.560 And I know these guys clearly know what they're doing. 110 00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:14.720 But it's a good thing that the rain didn't arrive. Now. 111 00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:17.199 The bad thing is that it may arrive right as 112 00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:18.759 soon as they're ready to get things started over at 113 00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:21.199 Jim Patterson Stadium. That's that's a worry. But you know, 114 00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:23.639 are you hoply mother nature will cooperate today? 115 00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:25.360 Have you become the weather guy in your house? 116 00:05:25.399 --> 00:05:25.800 Now? Oh? 117 00:05:25.879 --> 00:05:26.879 Yeah, that's my family. 118 00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:28.600 Is it going to rain today? 119 00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:31.439 I mean, this may surprise you sometimes, you know, I 120 00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:34.560 talk a lot. It's just kind of my nature. So 121 00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:36.480 if I you know, I may butt myself into a 122 00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:39.600 conversation about weather. If I hear somebody that is sharing 123 00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:42.240 a forecast that I know is not coming from our 124 00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:44.800 pros over there at WK, why I'll let him know. Hey, 125 00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:47.240 no Melosa bitch says otherwise, And I trust him, So I. 126 00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:50.680 Dude, I text him religious because my family, my whole family, 127 00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:53.199 will ask me, is it going to rain today? And 128 00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:55.439 I'll tell him Matt told me we're not gonna get 129 00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:56.959 a rain. And then they go, well, I'm looking at 130 00:05:56.959 --> 00:06:00.639 the app here and it says, what you ask me for, Well, 131 00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:02.079 you turn into the weather guy. 132 00:06:01.959 --> 00:06:05.519 Here, of course, and I should I should realize this, 133 00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:08.160 but when you were on this station eight forty w 134 00:06:08.439 --> 00:06:10.199 h a s and it's such a source for a 135 00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:13.920 lot of things including weather, traffic, news and a lot 136 00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:17.519 of other things. If it's on this this station, this brand, 137 00:06:17.720 --> 00:06:19.920 they're gonna they're gonna trust and believe it. So, you know, 138 00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:22.160 I just want people to know we're trusting the experts. 139 00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:25.160 And sometimes, you know, things don't play out the way 140 00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:28.360 that that they expect, and sometimes that's a good thing. 141 00:06:28.399 --> 00:06:31.240 I mean, who wanted rain yesterday? I know I didn't rain. 142 00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:31.839 It's no fun. 143 00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:34.279 And it always cracks me up when people say they'll 144 00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:37.120 say something like, you know, we well we didn't get anything. 145 00:06:37.199 --> 00:06:38.639 You know, you said we were gonna get it. 146 00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:40.600 Well we were supposed to get severe storms. They go, well, 147 00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:42.720 that was kind of a dud. But did you want them? 148 00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:44.839 Yeah, yeah, did you want them? 149 00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:46.480 It's kind of like, let's do this. 150 00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:49.639 Yeah, they trust me. I think, you know, for those 151 00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:52.160 that are often bringing up the fact that they they 152 00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:53.800 do get it wrong at times, I think if you 153 00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:55.920 talk to any of them, they would let you know 154 00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:58.480 they I don't think you'd get the satisfaction that you 155 00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:01.040 might think you would get as far as the boom 156 00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:04.319 in your face, because they'll let you know, Yeah, we're wrong. Often, 157 00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:06.720 we've been wrong before, We'll be wrong again. That's kind 158 00:07:06.759 --> 00:07:09.519 of the nature, the nature of the business. So the 159 00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:12.680 feud that is, I mean, the bromance is over. I 160 00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:15.519 mentioned I referenced it as a bromance yesterday, meaning the 161 00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:21.000 relationship between Elon Musk and Donald Trump, and it is 162 00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:25.519 escalated rather quickly in the last really the last seventy 163 00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:29.199 two hours, but really yesterday was a day. This was 164 00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:32.959 something that was put out there by a talk show 165 00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:36.360 host I believe he's in the Pennsylvania area, Philly market, 166 00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:38.079 and he puts something out that I feel like is 167 00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:41.959 absolutely is spot on that in a two hour time span, 168 00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:44.120 you had Elon Musk say that Trump is in the 169 00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:48.319 Epstein files. Elon says Trump should be impeached. Steve Bannon 170 00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:51.560 says Elon should be deported. It takes at least six 171 00:07:51.639 --> 00:07:55.240 months of storylines to develop something like that in professional wrestling, 172 00:07:55.319 --> 00:07:57.680 and it happened in two hours. I mean, talking about 173 00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:02.360 some big jabs flying flying back and forth, and when 174 00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:05.199 there's when there's a fight, rather it be social media, 175 00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:09.439 internet fight or you know, maybe a potential fight. I mean, Pete, 176 00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:12.120 regardless of really what you feel, how you feel about 177 00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:15.759 those that are involved in set fight, it's just kind 178 00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:18.839 of hard to look away, right, drama cells and certainly 179 00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:21.439 this is this is what that is. But yeah, what 180 00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:25.519 especially between those two Yes, yeah, I mean again, one 181 00:08:25.519 --> 00:08:28.879 of the most powerful individuals around and one of the 182 00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:32.840 wealthiest guys around and they're having an internet fight, like 183 00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:36.240 you see from you know, so what do you do school? 184 00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:38.840 It's very interesting because I saw somebody driving in Tesla 185 00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:40.480 and they had a bumper sticker on. 186 00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:42.600 They actually put a bumper sticker on in Tesla. 187 00:08:42.720 --> 00:08:45.159 And they said, I bought this before I knew who 188 00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:48.919 he was. And so the question is, now, if you were, 189 00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:50.759 if you were kind of in both the Trump and 190 00:08:50.799 --> 00:08:53.159 the Musk camp, which where do you fall? 191 00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:56.840 Now That's a great question because I get the sense 192 00:08:57.039 --> 00:09:01.879 that without anybody being supered, I mean, some people are 193 00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:03.879 being super direct and they're letting you know which side 194 00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:05.960 they stand on of the two, and then others I 195 00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:07.759 think are a little bit torn because it did seem 196 00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:10.200 as if for a time there when they when the 197 00:09:10.200 --> 00:09:13.559 bromance was hot and heavy, everybody was all in collectively. 198 00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:16.240 But you're right, I mean, yeah, it's uh, it's like 199 00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:20.639 when your parents split up exactly. We're watching the parents 200 00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:24.960 have a divorce, and you know it's it's something. It 201 00:09:25.039 --> 00:09:27.080 is something, no doubt. All Right, we've got your first 202 00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:29.360 update of sports coming up on the other side. Your 203 00:09:29.399 --> 00:09:31.320 next update of traffic and weather is right now on 204 00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:37.200 news radio waight forty whas. Thank you, John. One of 205 00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:40.240 the stories you heard there in the newscast from mister 206 00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:44.039 John Shannon was the MSD worker who was performed performing 207 00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:47.679 preventative maintenance at a sewer pumping station when he fell 208 00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:49.919 twenty I think twenty to twenty five feet into a 209 00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:53.600 well and became trapped and obviously a really really scary situation, 210 00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:57.759 and this was this was I mean, when I see 211 00:09:57.759 --> 00:10:00.519 these kind of things, when you have someone who took 212 00:10:00.559 --> 00:10:04.440 action quickly, I hope they realize that they they've probably 213 00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:07.440 saved someone's life or at least prevented something that would 214 00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:09.360 have been really, really disastrous. I mean, I'm sure that 215 00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:12.879 was a scary, traumatic experience for the for the MSD 216 00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:16.759 worker but the sanitation truck driver who was there and 217 00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:20.159 noticed it, his quick none to one one call, and 218 00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:24.320 then of course the swift response from from the first responders. 219 00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:27.679 I mean, if someone did something like that for me 220 00:10:27.879 --> 00:10:31.519 to where I would have a moment of wow, did 221 00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:33.960 that really happened that I did? You know, how fortunate 222 00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:35.759 am I that it wasn't worse? And then I'm still 223 00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:38.200 here and somebody took action quickly that you know, might 224 00:10:38.200 --> 00:10:39.919 have saved my life. I don't know if I would ever, 225 00:10:40.039 --> 00:10:42.200 I would probably become very annoying to them and a 226 00:10:42.279 --> 00:10:43.840 pest because I would just want them to know at 227 00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:45.720 all times, Hey, I don't know what I can do 228 00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:47.360 for you, but I think you are the reason I'm 229 00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:50.279 still alive and I'm forever in debt to you. I mean, 230 00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:52.879 I mean it's probably I wouldn't say an uncomfortable thing, 231 00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:55.960 but you saved somebody's life, you know, potentially, and that's 232 00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:57.879 that's something that if it was me in that situation, 233 00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:00.759 I would I would be forever grateful. I'm sure. I'm 234 00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:02.879 sure this MSD worker is, but that's one of those things. 235 00:11:02.919 --> 00:11:05.440 How could act, how could you accurately even put that 236 00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:08.879 truly put into perspective, how grateful you are, you can 237 00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:09.600 it's impossible. 238 00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:11.679 I would imagine, have you ever been pointing to a 239 00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:15.159 spot where you really kind of did something really good 240 00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:17.840 and it could have worked out better for you? For example, 241 00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:19.960 I was in the bank just about a month ago, 242 00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:22.519 and then teller literally gave me an extra one hundred 243 00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:25.399 and fifty dollars. I seriously could have walked out with 244 00:11:25.399 --> 00:11:27.279 that one hundred and fifty hours and never thought twice. 245 00:11:27.279 --> 00:11:30.240 And I immediately brought it back and she just almost feigned. 246 00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:33.120 So you did it immediately. It wasn't even don't even 247 00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:34.600 think about it. Yeah, okay, well good for you. 248 00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:35.360 Don't even think about it. 249 00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:38.120 I mean you realize most people wouldn't. Well, see, that's 250 00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:40.799 the thing at least well I shouldn't say that it's cynical, 251 00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:41.440 but I mean. 252 00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:43.200 But like if you say, if you're out there and 253 00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:45.960 let's say you're you Nick are driving down sixty five, 254 00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:48.080 or you're driving somewhere and there's a car on fire, 255 00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:50.639 and you somehow, and we see these stories all the time, 256 00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:53.240 you pull that person out of that fire. I mean, 257 00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:56.039 you go home and there's this not only are you 258 00:11:56.039 --> 00:11:58.960 happy for that person, but I'm all about having that 259 00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:02.759 self confidence that anytime you can bolster yourself inside without 260 00:12:02.759 --> 00:12:06.360 being cocky and arrogant, that's a huge thing. Yeah, And 261 00:12:06.600 --> 00:12:08.399 like when this work you were just talking about. 262 00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:09.720 I've never been in a situation where I've had to 263 00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:12.840 pull somebody from a burning vehicle, right, And I hope 264 00:12:12.840 --> 00:12:15.759 I never do. I would also hope that there would 265 00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:18.120 just be it would be instincts to where you just 266 00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:20.159 don't really do what there's not a whole lot of thinking, 267 00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:22.799 you're just reacting, but you don't know until you're in 268 00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:23.679 a spot like that. 269 00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:26.240 And that's what happened to me last month. You know, 270 00:12:26.279 --> 00:12:28.600 I didn't think about I'm sitting there for a spit second. 271 00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:30.679 I looked I I got one hundred and fifty bucks, 272 00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:32.879 and I could take that and do whatever I wanted 273 00:12:32.919 --> 00:12:33.159 with it. 274 00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:37.759 I'd say the teller's response was an indicator that I 275 00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:40.080 might be accurate in saying most people wouldn't do that, 276 00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:43.080 because I'm sure they do that here and there, and 277 00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:46.360 it's just a simple mistake that can happen when but 278 00:12:46.679 --> 00:12:48.759 they don't have probably many people that come back and 279 00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:50.120 just return it. 280 00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:53.720 So and you could tell this teller was pretty new too. Because, 281 00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:55.879 like I said, she almost fainted, and she was like 282 00:12:55.919 --> 00:12:58.399 because I don't think that would have cost her job. 283 00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:00.320 To your point, I'm sure this happens all the time 284 00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:04.039 in financial institutions, but to be what this MSD worker 285 00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:07.120 did is amazing, and I'm sure that person puts their 286 00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:07.919 head down at night. 287 00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:11.720 Yeah. And it's not just the person who who made 288 00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:15.440 the call and took action quickly again, its sanitation truck 289 00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:18.039 driver who called nine to one one, but also those 290 00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:20.559 that were there and were trying their best to keep 291 00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:24.039 the victim calm. It sounds like they were conscious and 292 00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:26.600 alert the whole time, which is certainly a good sign. 293 00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:28.799 But I'm sure they weren't just relaxing. They were in 294 00:13:29.559 --> 00:13:32.039 a jam, to say the least. But a rescue technician 295 00:13:32.039 --> 00:13:35.279 descended and secured the victim and a harness both were 296 00:13:35.320 --> 00:13:38.039 pulled to safety. The whole thing ended up being about 297 00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:41.600 twenty five minutes, probably felt like twenty five hours if 298 00:13:41.639 --> 00:13:43.879 you were the person that had fallen and were in 299 00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:48.840 that kind of a situation. And this got national news randomly, 300 00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:52.039 it actually something similar kind of happened not that long ago, 301 00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:53.399 and it didn't get the same a kind of coverage 302 00:13:53.399 --> 00:13:55.039 I think it was because it was the Sunday after Derby. 303 00:13:55.039 --> 00:13:58.960 But you guys, remember when the eighteen wheeler was hanging 304 00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:02.519 off of the I mean that the visual of that 305 00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:06.000 was absolutely insane. And to see the first responders there, 306 00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:09.759 you know, not only saving the life of the person 307 00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:12.559 who was trapped inside the truck, but you know, I mean, 308 00:14:12.639 --> 00:14:14.320 just like that, that's a true hero right there. And 309 00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:16.879 I remember kind of reacting to that on the air, 310 00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:19.000 thinking if that was me one I would be I 311 00:14:19.000 --> 00:14:21.519 would I would have hyperventilated, I would have probably passed out, 312 00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:24.039 and maybe this person would have too. But you could 313 00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:27.000 tell those they're trained professionals who know that their job 314 00:14:27.039 --> 00:14:29.320 is to try to keep people as calm as possible, 315 00:14:29.360 --> 00:14:31.840 and that's a lot easier said than done. But if 316 00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:33.960 I was in a situation quite like that, I mean, 317 00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:36.279 I don't know I would. I would constantly think of 318 00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:40.120 the person who was there to keep me, you know, 319 00:14:40.279 --> 00:14:42.960 at ease during the scariest moment of my life, I'm sure, 320 00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:45.279 and also, you know, play a factor and me still 321 00:14:45.320 --> 00:14:45.840 being alive. 322 00:14:45.919 --> 00:14:47.960 So what about the person who was going to commit suicide, 323 00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:50.480 don't yah, Yeah, the joggers stepped in there, so yeah, 324 00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:51.200 you're spot on too. 325 00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:54.000 And what's great is when those kind of things happen 326 00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:57.799 and you'd never know about it unless somebody else saw it, 327 00:14:58.080 --> 00:15:00.960 right like they did it just to be good, right, 328 00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:03.919 not because of clout and a social media post. And 329 00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:06.759 that's a beautiful thing. But we still have that going on, 330 00:15:06.840 --> 00:15:08.799 all right, Another update of trafficking weather is coming your 331 00:15:08.840 --> 00:15:13.360 way here on news radio eight forty whas.

Two very powerful people 345 00:15:50.679 --> 00:15:51.720 fighting on the internet. 346 00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:56.279 Yeah, and amazing, like the richest man in the world. 347 00:15:57.000 --> 00:15:59.200 We've got the leader of the free world versus the 348 00:15:59.279 --> 00:16:01.960 richest man in the world. You've got an American president 349 00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:07.320 feuding with a top defense contractor in real time on 350 00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:10.159 social media for all of us to see. I mean, 351 00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:12.039 it was one of those get the popcorn kind of 352 00:16:12.039 --> 00:16:15.440 moments yesterday as we were watching it unfold in real 353 00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:19.840 time either on two social on X or from the 354 00:16:19.840 --> 00:16:20.360 White House. 355 00:16:20.840 --> 00:16:24.840 So it sounds as if this bill I mean, and 356 00:16:24.879 --> 00:16:27.519 this is what we discussed yesterday, that Elon Musk very 357 00:16:27.559 --> 00:16:29.679 unhappy with it, so much so that he couldn't he 358 00:16:29.679 --> 00:16:31.399 couldn't keep it to himself, not that he was doing 359 00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:34.440 that anyway, but being very outspoken just about how how 360 00:16:34.519 --> 00:16:37.759 much he is against it. One of the biggest factors 361 00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:40.559 as far as him being so against this, I think 362 00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:44.639 some mentioning the situation with the the electric vehicles is 363 00:16:44.639 --> 00:16:46.480 that is that believed to be I guess what really 364 00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:47.759 he has an issue with here? 365 00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:51.519 Yeah, Well, essentially there are four different areas You're going 366 00:16:51.559 --> 00:16:53.120 to get me now on this because I'm I can't 367 00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:54.480 Let's see if I can do the flour off my 368 00:16:54.519 --> 00:16:57.039 head there with the tax credits for evs were one 369 00:16:57.039 --> 00:17:00.799 of them. Elon's pick to be the head of NASA, 370 00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:03.600 his buddy who has spent a lot of money on 371 00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:08.279 SpaceX flights, Jared Isaacman that got pulled, and a few 372 00:17:08.279 --> 00:17:12.319 other agenda items that aren't going to benefit Elon Musk, 373 00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:17.400 So perhaps they all contributed. But also this idea that 374 00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:20.400 the Big Beautiful Bill adds two point six trillion dollars 375 00:17:20.400 --> 00:17:23.279 in new debt. At least that's the front issue that 376 00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:26.000 Elon Musk is putting out there, that the bill doesn't 377 00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:28.920 do enough to curb spending, and you know, it doesn't 378 00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:32.359 really follow through on what Doze was trying to accomplish. 379 00:17:32.559 --> 00:17:35.960 Elon Musk alleging that Trump's name appears in the Jeffrey 380 00:17:35.960 --> 00:17:38.799 Epstein files, I mean, I fact had told you that 381 00:17:39.039 --> 00:17:41.160 a couple of days ago, that we'd have that accusation 382 00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:43.559 on the internet. Again, it almost doesn't seem real, But 383 00:17:43.839 --> 00:17:45.960 here we are. What's been sort of the overall reaction. 384 00:17:46.039 --> 00:17:48.119 I think there's still a lot of people just kind 385 00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:50.960 of stunned one to see that out there, and also 386 00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:53.279 I guess maybe to learn of that accusation via a 387 00:17:53.319 --> 00:17:54.400 social media app. 388 00:17:55.240 --> 00:17:58.480 Well, right, And look, it's likely Donald Trump's name is 389 00:17:58.519 --> 00:18:01.200 in those files. Apparently he flew on a plane once 390 00:18:01.359 --> 00:18:03.720 so that was owned by that he was borrowing or something. 391 00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:06.319 So technically speaking, Donald Trump's name is going to be 392 00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:09.000 in those files. But again we don't. We clearly have 393 00:18:09.079 --> 00:18:13.039 not seen everything that's in there, frustrating many people, especially 394 00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:17.680 people who use X. So you know, that was a 395 00:18:17.720 --> 00:18:20.240 bit of a surprise essentially that he went for a 396 00:18:20.240 --> 00:18:23.720 pretty low blow pretty early on in this dusktop. You know, 397 00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:27.400 then President Trump threatened to pull subsidies, and Musk said 398 00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:31.000 he was going to stop using a Dragon spacecraft on X, 399 00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:33.839 which is the way that we supply and swap up 400 00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:36.680 cruise to the International Space Station. So that would have 401 00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:39.680
