Speaker 1 (00:01):
It feels good, good news, happy stories. We share him
with you every day on the program, Kaylin, what do
you got here? So if you missed this, it was nuts.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
So a man named Lucas mcclish went into California's Big
Basin Redwood State Park to look for something called granite outcropping.
I'm sure people will text us. I don't know what
the hell that is, but a friend told him about it,
and he didn't bring anything because he thought he was
just doing like a three hour hike. But the thirty
four year old ended up missing in the woods for

(00:29):
ten days and nine nights with only a hat, a flashlight,
and a folding tool with scissors on him. He survived
by drinking water from creeks and eating wild berries, and
a man living in the area eventually heard him yelling
for help, which led to his very dramatic rescue.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
The photos or Nuts.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
About three hundred people, including emergency personnel from multiple agencies,
assisted in the search, and it was successful.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
I watched a lot of those survival shows, Naked and Afraid,
Bear Grylls alone. I think it's one of my watch
I think I could probably handle it. I think I
could say, well, The first thing you gotta do is shelter.
That's the first thing you gotta Well, that was an
episode of Bear Girls, by the way, he set a
rope trap for a reindeer. The reindeer ran into the trap.

(01:14):
I'll spare you some of the details, but let's just
say he had to get a little handsy with it. Then,
I'm not kidding Bear Girls. He then removed the insides
and climbed inside of it to stay warm. Yeah, that happened,
So I don't think I would take it that far.
I feel like I'd probably just pribade start before then,
and I probably would eat the wrong berry, you know,

(01:34):
But then I probably would get some kind of a
stomach issue, and then I would really come out looking
slender from the thing. But the first thing you gotta do.
Everybody knows this. The first thing is you gotta build
shelter and you gotta find water. Those are the two
things you gotta do. The first two things you gotta do.
The rest you can figure it out, but you gotta
have shelter, stay warm and dry. This is why I've

(01:56):
learned from the Naked and Afraid show. And then you
gotta find water, got it? And you think you can
do this? Yeah, I definitely think so, all right, and
I can see the national anthem yep. Yeah, well compared
to what we heard, I'm pretty sure you could.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
You think camping is like staying at a lakina.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
I mean, I like a lakita. Was it a free
breakfast lakina? Yeah? Well it's a survival it is. It is.
But I can do that too, don't worry about it.
So I love this story. I think you'll love the story, Kaitlin.
And actually just kind of happened to my grandfather a

(02:36):
little bit. But a proud grandmother danced into the night
at her granddaughter's wedding, despite doctors saying that she wouldn't
live to see the day. Her name is Dori em
and she'd been dealing with a hard condition called aortic
stenosis for several years. It blocks blood flow to the
aortic valve, which is important. She was told late last
year that no treatment or operation would help, and her

(02:57):
family were advised to prepare for the worst. The ninety
three year old I had the odds then by living again.
It was three more years at least, but she lived
and was able to attend the wedding and have a
great time. She was the life and soul of the party.
And especially knowing that the doctors has said that they
didn't think that she would make it, it feels so special
for her to have seen it. She was living her
best life all night. Oh girl, I hope she's still

(03:21):
with us. I'm not sure if she's still with us. Anyway,
she was there for that. She made it. They told
my grandfather like nineteen eighty three, you would not live
very much longer because he had colling cancer. Thirty years later,
he's still there, still kicking. He was bald too, and
that's I thought that was about to be my I
thought that was my legacy that I was going to
carry on because they say it's your mom's dad. Yeah,

(03:43):
and that dude was bald, and but look at me,
all the hair possible, and I can survive. He's in
a while. He's so proud of me. He rips up
there right now. He's he really is. Fritz is very
proud of me. That was his name, mainly for the survival.
I think, oh, right, okay, yeah, they look you. You
don't think you really don't think of all the people
on the show. You don't think I could keep you

(04:05):
alive in a survival environment the music festival. We're thank you, Ray.
You would jump on my back. I could carry you around,
so you have you'd have to save me. Yes, absolutely,
a few of you know. In moments of high stress,

(04:25):
I am clutch. Oh, you saved my life. I saved
Jason Brown's life one day on the road, cool, calm, collected. Yeah.
So when it comes down to it, I'm extremely serious.
You call triple aja, you called triple No, I saved.
I saved all of our lives. You did, I did.
There was a tire blowout and there was a bit

(04:45):
of a hysteria and I grabbed the wheel and I say, everybody,
call be calm. He steered it, steered it from me. No,
this is actually a true story. No, this is actually
a true story. Yeah. So in moments of high stress,
for some reason, I become extremely for focused in calm.
I don't know what, because you would think i'd be
a little neurotic, because I'm a little neurotic just now
and nothing's happening. That is true. When we had a

(05:06):
little emergency in here, you did hold it down. Except
for the one time when I was in the fetal
position in the corner when mis don't work right, when
there's when there's nothing, Yeah, when I can't change the
reality of the train wreck that's happening on the air technically. Yeah,
that one time though, I did get in the fetal
position in the corner as I saw my career coming

(05:28):
to an end. But yeah, no, I don't worry if
any if ever there is a situation where survival is required,
I'm your guy. It's gonna be great. I'm gonna build
a fort. I know how to do it. Yeah, I
mean it would be helpful if I had like a lighter. Yeah,
I was gonna say, fire is importantly, you know, it
would be up there. I think I could make one,

(05:48):
but because I've seen a lot of people do it
with rocks and you know, friction, and but I would
need at least flint and maybe a lighter. A lighter
would like if come on, a lighter would be really
help yeah, yeah, yeah, And I would say, like, uh,
I don't know McDonald's within within five hundred feet, I
would think, Yeah, something like that on RBS would be fine.

(06:12):
You know, something more rested, like a checker's, you know,
something more local is also okay, you know, but like
if ahuah Wa is nearby, you know, maybe uh seven
eleven or something, you know, then I'm we're gonna live.
I just want you to know. So I'm the guy
on this show that you want in those moment, you
would think it would be Jason, but I don't.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
I don't think so no, no, no no, I don't
know how to do any I can't even work a lighter.
I can't do any So he'd sent his calendar invice
so Caitlin Cala would make sure that we were well
informed on our survival mission of like what's happening when
when the team's meeting is.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
Caylin would make sure we are well organized ierries if
you know what I mean. Yeah, Kiki would be making tiktoks,
using what's left of our survivals ratchets to make tiktoks. Paulina,
she'd pull through the survivals, pull up on the survival
situation exactly, girl. She'd pull up in a helicopter like

(07:02):
you're saying for me, and then she'd leaves in the
helicopter and then we'd all still be there, but she'd
come through for a minute. We'll come through and she
asked who else there right, and then she comes through
waiting by the phone after Teddy swims in two minutes
