Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
And now it's time for basins Sweet Day, Up Day,
featuring veteran news anchor kt F on tweets. Here are
the important stories he's currently tracking from.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Around the world, Man tough one.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
This morning we found discovered there was a big crash
of a Boeing seven eight seven Dreamliner. This is over
in India. So this plane's taking off and then first
of all had two and forty two people on it.
We have learned that there is one survivor.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
Oh, there is a survivor.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
Yes, vishwash Kumar Ramish. He was in seat eleven A.
So if you need to think about where you're buying
your plane tickets, eleven A that's the one. Uh. He
told reporters that about after thirty seconds after takeoff, he
heard a loud noise before the plane crashed. This plane

(00:59):
was going from to London. Again, two hundred and forty
two people on it. It goes up and then it
goes down and explodes and it's about a forty second
video and you see it.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
The explosion is huge.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
I haven't seen it. Does it explode in air or
explode on impact.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
On the ground, Yeah, impact on the ground.

Speaker 5 (01:19):
It takes off and then before it can really get up.
It just kind of goes down at the same rate.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Do you want to watch it? I mean, there's some
life coverage of you watching. Okay, I'll walk around though
with the most terrible plane crash video you'll see.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
I can't believe that he survived that.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
I can't either. That's that's the real shocking thing, honestly.

Speaker 5 (01:39):
Right, And he's doing interviews and stuff like he's able
to talk. He was, yeah, like, is he injured?

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Here you go skin the sick mind that dude.

Speaker 5 (01:47):
That is Uh, that's like that Bruce Willis movie where
he's the only guy who didn't die on the train.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
The train that crashes turns out to be. It's an
m light Shyamalan movie. They usually have a anique twist
at the end. Oh that's horrible. Yeah. Are those little
houses by the airport?

Speaker 3 (02:05):
I don't know, probably a village, maybe a cottage. I
don't really know the difference in those two things.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
Uh so a lot of people did now, but I
imagine I would imagine too.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
You said it's India to London.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
Uh yeah, So, I mean there's no telling that on
flights like that. Oftentimes you have high profile people. Oh, like,
we might end up finding out some high profile people
are on that flight.

Speaker 5 (02:29):
I saw where they say it could take months or
years to determine the cause of the crash there, like
it could be bird strikes, pilot error, manufacturing defects, or
inadequate maintenance.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
You know.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
The bird strike would fit to the tone of him
saying I heard a very loud noise thirty seconds after takeoff,
and that could cause the engine failure. And this was
apparently a double engine failure too.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
Then that wouldn't be a bird strike, right, birds.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
If the birds hit it, it could I.

Speaker 5 (03:03):
Think No, he's saying it would be so many the
only skins, right, But unless it's so many birds that
both engines hit birds simultaneously.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
Like a flock of birds.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
Now. Back in twenty twenty four January twenty twenty four,
a fellow by the name of John Barnett was on
TMZ and he was known as the Boeing whistleblower, and
he was talking about at the time Boeing seven thirty seven,
But he also mentioned in that interview the seven eighty
seven Dreamliner, which was this plane, bigger plane, and basically

(03:35):
the whole thing is hey they're cutting cost, they're cutting
inspection crews, they're not putting the quality that needs to
go into these things because of you know, catastrophic accident
kills a bunch of people.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
We all know this.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
And then two months after that interview, he was found
dead with a gunshot wound to the head in his
truck and a Charleston, South Carolina hotel. Remember that I
have stayed in oo So were you there at the time.
I was not there at the time. I was there
in twenty twenty three.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Alibi, I was before.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
But there was a picture of me poking my head
out the window of that hotel looking into the parking lot, shirtless.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Really that I could tell you that it was after this.
I was looking to see what happened in the parking lot.

Speaker 5 (04:17):
He was the whistleblower, and you were just a blower,
not what happened.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Hey man, Lisa, your whistle. Do you guys think about this?

Speaker 3 (04:26):
You guys think about the plane crashes alot?

Speaker 2 (04:28):
Do you guys think about it.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
I'm on a fight next week, and I'm.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
You're going on a flight in this in this environment.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
I'm gonna check like am I on a Boeing seven
thirty seven.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Are you going on a dreamliner?

Speaker 3 (04:38):
No?

Speaker 4 (04:40):
I earlier today, I had to do just this scan
that I got to do like twice a year.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
Now.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
It's just maintenance, you know, just post medical stuff, and
you're strapped down and you gotta be still for thirty minutes.
And I did have the thought, Man, what if a
mosquito landed on my face right now? That would really suck.
Like you're just strapped down and you can't do anything,
and you can't move because it screws the scan up,
but your arms are strapped anyways. And then once you
have that thought, then your mind goes to what if

(05:08):
a spider crawled across.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
My face right now?

Speaker 3 (05:10):
No?

Speaker 4 (05:10):
No, And then I'm sitting here going why am I
thinking about these horrible things? I'll have another fifteen minutes
stuck in this machine. This is a really bad idea.
Invasive thoughts, yeah, invasive, horrible thoughts. All I know is this,
I would not fly in the next week.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
No way.

Speaker 5 (05:24):
I would not be caught dead on a plane. But
good luck to you. Plane crashes come in threes, They're always.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
Come in little bursts. There's always a pocket up, dude.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
You know what I was thinking of so.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
Your aviation talk has turned me on.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
We lost Slice Stone and Brian Wilson of the Beach
Boys at the age of eighty two, and we all
know that music.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Deaths come in threes. Yep, do you guys know who
to be looking out for? Wait, they were both eighty
two years old? Yeah, oh no, who's another eighty two
year old? Musician? Roy Orbison?

Speaker 3 (05:54):
I would say, Keith sleeping, sleep with one eye open.
Paul McCartney and Lee green wool Oh.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Do that to them.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
But also if it's if it's not a music triumvirate,
sleep with one eye open. Joe Biden and Jerry Jones.
Those are your famous eighty two year olds right here
on ninety seven. Today is the day that I learned
that Lee Greenwood is eighty two. He looks amazing for
being that old and that little.

Speaker 5 (06:22):
All right, there's updates on a new plane crash and
some just some inside.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
And eighty two year olds coming up.

Speaker 5 (06:29):
