Speaker 1 (00:00):
I guess the fresh show this is what's trend. That
(00:02):
good chance if you can hear us it's cold where
you are, because it's cold pretty much everywhere, unless you're
my mom in Arizona. I don't think it's cold there.
But dangerously cold weather is sweeping through the US again
as a polar vortex drops temperatures. But even with the
majority of the country experiencing a deep freeze, Kentucky is
being hit especially hard because of recent severe weather there.
While it won't be as cold as it is in
(00:23):
the Midwest, the snow that has started falling in Kentucky
last night will continue through most of the day to day.
About sixty million people under winter weather alerts last night
from the Central Plains to the Carolina coast. Snow has
already been falling across parts of Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri,
and the winter precip expected to dip as far south
as northern Mississippi and Alabama. I guess I continue through today.
(00:45):
There's any good news, though, the storm's expected to move
quickly and to make it past the Carolina coastline early tomorrow.
Fire Aid has announced the grants for the first fifty
million rays from the Wildfire Benefit concert a couple of
weeks ago. Late lately last month, they hosted two concurrent
benefit concerts in LA to raise funds for victims of
the devastating wildfires. Earlier this year, Fire Aid raised and
(01:08):
estimated more than one hundred million dollars, so half of
that was announced to be set aside for grants prioritizing
community based organizations that are on the front lines of
wildfire relief. They announced the grants the grantees receiving the
combined fifty million rays. Each recipient will get one hundred
grand or more based on their applications, which are to
be used for immediate relief. The remaining fifty million will
(01:32):
go towards organizing and rebuilding and long term recovery for
victims of the devastating wildfires. Investigators, you're working to determine
what caused the Delta Airlines flight from Minneapolis to crash
and roll over on the runway at Toronto Pearson International Airport.
Traumatic new video shows the jets rear landing, gear buckling
and the right wing sheering away in a fireball after
(01:54):
making a hard landing. Experts tell CNM, by the way,
there are experts in the comments too. I've been reading
a lot of things about how airplanes work. It's great.
I had no idea there were so many licensed pilots
that were qualified to comment on crashes in the comment section.
I was talking to actual pilots last night. They were like,
I wouldn't comment in there. I'm not going in I
don't know what happened. I don't know what happened. Looks
(02:16):
like a hard landing to me. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
You guys probably have more discretion too when talking about pilots,
because it's like, I don't know, I don't want to
compare it, but you know, a doctor or something, you
have people's lives in your hands, and so I could
understand why you would not be quick to blame another pilot.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
I think it's I know this sounds corny, but like
pilot's a pilot. I think most of us don't want
to armshair quarterback another one of course, because it's like, well,
you know, it could happen to anybody. People do make mistakes,
and like, you know, you hate to be the one
to go with the knowledge. You have to go, well,
I think this is what happened, then be wrong and
you're right. No, it's not like I'm covering. I just
I don't know. But yeah, no, I was reading all
(02:52):
about how airplanes work. It's wild. People know how everything works.
I had no idea most I mean, I'm a flight instructor,
and I was reading about, you know, the dynamics and
lyft and and year retraction. And this is crazy from
you know Jenny four four, three nine eight underscore to
two TX, she knew all about it. I'm a co
pilot and I'm not talking. I know you're not. I'm
(03:14):
not saying nothing. You're a license co pilot, says me. Yeah,
and I didn't see you in a comments and you
know what happened. You looked at that footage and you
were like, I know exactly what happened. How many times
that landed? I do and watch you land? Makes you
perfectly qualified to comment. And let's say it's important to
remember that commercial air travel in the US has been
safer than ever before. There have been fewer fatalities on
(03:36):
scheduled commercial airliners over the past fifteen years than any
other fifteen year stretch. And this is for you, Kiki,
and just you what what does that look for?
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Cuz I mean we yeah nothing, no, go.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Ahead, no, go ahead, no, I look on your face,
go ahead say nothing.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
You a pilot.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
And I like the way y'all just broke that down,
you know, like it's been safer in the last fifteen years,
and it ever been fifteen years before I go duh, like,
I mean, okay about this.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Week, you know, like said this month. We gotta look
at the big picture. The big picture is is good, right,
right right, It's a very safe method of travel. It's
been Yeah, it seems so sick.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
I'm not really giving, but think of all the car
crashes you hear of. I guess in relation, you.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Know, you know, statistically, it is much safer to fly
than it is to drive to the airport. It's true, right,
it's true.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Yes, yeah, and you fly Spirit, so no, I can't
they have any problems.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
So that's true. That is one thing that is shocking. Well,
what's funny is I have friends that fly for Spirit.
It's very does nothing wrong with the equipment of the pilot.
It's just that what's happening from the from the back,
it's the robbery they do. I'm not gonna quote my
any of my friends specifically, but you know, I do
send them some of these memes and stuff and these
TikTok videos making fun and they're like, hey, I get
(04:50):
to pay. I get paid the same as every other
airline pilot. I close the door, fly the plane or whatever,
casting or wherever I'm going right, and you know, whatever
happens in the bag, I don't really no, that's that's
between you and God. I guess I don't know. But
this is for you again, Kiki, because you know, I'm
worried about a couple of people in this room. I'm
worried about a Kalen's gambling addiction, and I'm worried about
(05:11):
which is just it's just creeping. I mean, all the
signs of addiction are there. You know. It's it's first,
it's like business, yeah, stage. I mean, she was an
absolute fiend when we were in Salt Lake City and
she had no access to gambling websites. It was like
I got to call an intermediary. I gotta call my bookie.
(05:31):
Turns out as her boyfriend who gave you bad advice
and burned your money.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
We're done with that, you know, I do think I
really only enjoy gambling on football. And then a bracket,
So I'm I will be done. I promise you after
this until next season.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Okay, all right. So we have a gambling addict here,
and then we have a technology addict, which is you.
A new research suggests that a simple way to improve
your mental health and your focus is to turn off
your phone's internet. Just turn it off off. So all
the phone does is a phone. Get yourself a jitterbug?
Why would I do that? Well? Blocking mobile internet for
(06:06):
two weeks led to mental health improvements more than typically
seen in antidepress and studies and improved sustained attention comparable
to reversing ten years of age related decline and increased
well being in ninety one percent of participants in at
least one key area. Without mobile internet access, people naturally
spent more time socializing in person, ew iky, exercising, and
(06:29):
being outdoors. Uh. These shifts and behavior partially explained improvements
in well being, and some benefits persisted even after the
internet access was restored. So your phone is simply to
get a hold of you, but other than that, just
turn it up. But here's the thing I think if
I told these people here, like at work, hey guys,
I'm turning the internet off at ten am. Sorry, it's
(06:51):
better for my mental health. I don't think that would
work because they could They could say to you like, oh,
we don't you know, we won't call you after five
and you know we don't expect you to do anything
after business hours.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
B ashy, Oh yeah, yes, So if what if I
What if I did that?
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Though? What if I say, hey, guys, you know I've
done my job for the day, I'm out, I'm disconnecting.
You can hit me out. You can hit me up
on channel seven on my CB radio if you must.
But I don't have it with me all the time.
So I don't know. I don't think they get away
with that anymore. No, not today. And I also don't
know how I would like, well, how would I eat?
I mean I would have to I would have to
leave my house. I suppose. I'm like, well no it
(07:26):
h no internet? Right? No internet?
Speaker 4 (07:28):
I mean?
Speaker 1 (07:28):
How would I know where I'm going outside of my
immediate circle? What I mean, I don't know how would
I get a date? Exactly? What on earth would I do?
Your people? Oh? No, absolutely not. Now how much would
you say? Okay, how many hours ninet you sleep? Six?
Maybe ten? To four, ten to three, and nine. Okay,
(07:52):
so of the eighteen hours that you were conscious, yes, honestly, Kiki,
all jokes aside, how many of those hours are you
actively interacting with the internet.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
It's bad right now, it really is. And I want
to I want help. I'm so serious. It's bad because
I go.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
You're afraid to so would you say fifteen? Because you
you drive and watch TikTok, So there's not even a
time you can't argue.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Talk about that, right right? The mic is on, the
mic is always on. It's commute, all right, yeah, no,
imagine just being with yourself for a little while.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Hey, now I cannot It's weird. I went out to
dinner last night with my brothers and I really tried
to disconnect and it was fun, you know, for like
thirty minutes. You know, I really tapped into the tacos
and the margarita and I was like, oh wow, this
is nice. But it's it's a constant thing. Is I
really need help? Like I need help? I need help.
(08:51):
I feel your girl, I want help.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
What I watched to watch? I mean, I guess I
have to like turn on the TV.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Right, Like I don't I turn on the TV for
bad ground noise and then ask ques.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
You know that's what That's so funny because like I
go home and it's silent, and I love Oh. I
can't have silence, but I get enough noise in here
every day. It's a lot of it's a lot of
stimulations here. Yeah, between like four and ten, I get
all I need you hear your own thoughts and you
like it. I didn't say that. I didn't say that
(09:21):
it's a national No, no one said that it's national.
Maybe I should turn some music on National Vet Girls
Rise Day not only day to recognize female veterans, but
a day for women veterans to support one another, share resources,
build relationships, and spread awareness concerning the needs of female veterans.
