Speaker 1 (00:00):
He's deeper in the din with dangerous day well. Hotels
dot Com released a list of unusual room service requests.
Some of the most unusual requests, according to hotels dot
com include an avion filled baptub so their child could
bathe in the purest water. It wouldn't be any warmer
than room temperature. Right, hopefully they didn't put cold water

(00:22):
in their poor child, a custom allergen menu for their pet,
gluten free, dairy free, burnt toast, caviar, hot dogs, fresh
goat milk, and four pounds of bananas. Some of the
weirdest requests according to hotels dot com. Also this one
is actually clever, a high five from matif member to
ensure their room service request was a radnet. They also

(00:43):
talked about some of the strangest belongings ever left behind.
They included expensive stuff like a Rolex, a Birken bag
are a six million dollar watch, animals left behind, a chicken,
a pet lizard refounder returned to their owner after they
checked out, and essentials that guests forgot, like two full
leg casts. Ten percent of hotels said their guests have
left behind their dentures. My son did that not as dentures,

(01:06):
but something similar it happened to be his retainer I
just paid for and the unexplainable. Some of the other
lost and found items a rice cooker, a car tire,
a blender, and some construction pipes deeper in the two.
National Preparedness Month is September. The government launched three years
after nine to eleven to encourage people to be ready
for any type of crisis. A new poll looked at

(01:28):
the top things we'd grab if we had evacuate in
five minutes. What's number one? What would be the first
thing you would grab if you had to evacuate. Well,
people and pets weren't an option, because obviously you'd want
to grab them first, but the top ten phone. Seventy
four percent of people said the first thing they would
grab is their phone. I'm thinking the first thing I
would do is put some clothes on, but that's an

(01:50):
personal issue. Purser wallet was number two. Important documents like
passports and social security cards were at number three, followed
by prescription medications, family photos, clothes, your laptop, shoes, water,
food or snacks, no Darida left behind, I guess, and
a few more things at ranked high jewelry toilet trees.
Ten percent said they'd grab their gaming counsole. Also, they

(02:12):
asked who would you say is the most prepared person
in your family, and the number one answer was well, me,
of course. Thirty six percent of Americans think they're more
prepared than anyone else. Partner or spouse was second with
fourteen percent of the vote, and mom was eleven percent
of the vote. I would like to say that I'm prepared,
but I would have to ask my wife if that's okay.
