Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey guys, it's Bethany from the Michael J. Morning Show.
You're listening to Michael J and Bethany after Hours.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Michael J and Bethany, we are all about our hometown
of Baltimore, and as sun comes up over Charms City.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Ninety three void one WPOC now truly one.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Year ago today, the iconic Francis Scott Key Bridge right
here in Baltimore struck by a massive container ship and
plunged into the Potapsco River. The bridge was one hundred
and eighty five feet high and it was up as
part of the Baltimore skyline for fifty years.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
But it collapsed at about one thirty.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Am, exactly one year ago today and changed the city forever.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
It did.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
And the moments that that happened stopped us because if
you'll remember, there was very quick response by MDTA police
officers who fortunately were able to save lives because they
kept others from driving out onto the bridge, stopped traffic,
having no idea of how serious it was. M DTA
(01:11):
Police First Sergeant Paul Pistoric was one of those officers,
and you're going to hear him in the police audio
we're going to play in a moment, But first he
sat down and remembered his thoughts. Now, a year after
that tragic morning.
Speaker 5 (01:27):
When I first saw the scene, it was dead everwhelming.
A year later, you know, we're coming up on the anniversary.
Still had the same feelings. We still lost the same
six souls that we were unable to save that night.
Speaker 6 (01:43):
He one of you guys on the south side, one
of you guys on the north side, hold on traffic
on the key bridge. There's a ship approaching has just
lost their steering, so that under control. We got to
stop off traffic. Yeah, we're well comming around through south right,
so I start team. I'm holding traffic now. I was
dragging when we stopped prior to the bridge, so I'll
(02:06):
have a whole How does the traffic stop?
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Ten four?
Speaker 6 (02:09):
Is there a crew work on the bridge right now?
Speaker 7 (02:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (02:13):
OK, wine with the good finding crowd traffic on our
site right now? Yeah, if we can stop traffic, just
make sure no one's on the bridge right now. I'm
not sure where. Uh there's a crew up there. You
might want to notify whoever. The format is if we
can get them off the bridge, that really say for
once the other unit gets here, all right, up on
(02:35):
the fridge. I have all a loop traffic stop at
this time. That's once you get here, I'll never brad
the workers on the key bridge and then stop the
outer loop.
Speaker 7 (02:49):
Take thirteenth this beach. The whole bridge just found down.
Start starts, whoever, everybody. The whole bridge just collapsed. Well,
this class is erect.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
That's correct. For first time.
Speaker 6 (03:02):
You you know, wall traffic was up.
Speaker 7 (03:05):
I can't get to the other side, so.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
The bridge is down. We're gonna have.
Speaker 7 (03:10):
To get somebody on the other side of the Anamoma
County MSP to get up here and.
Speaker 6 (03:14):
Stop traffic coming northbound on a T bridge. And I'm
holding all traffic northbound.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
It was the middle of the night when this happened,
but it was at this moment with sunrise that we
got to see clearly that the change of Baltimore's smile
it was gone.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Bridge no longer stood.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
So we take this moment to remember thanking all of
our police who were there to save so many lives.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
When I got the news today.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I did, and we remember that seven people were on
the bridge when it went down. Only one survived. The
men who died, Carlos Daniel Hernandez, Alijandro Hernandez, Fuentes, Maynor Sandoval,
(04:14):
Miguel Gonzalez, Jose Lopez, and Dorlean Cabrera. So their families,
I'm sure are having a rough morning as the entire
city remembers.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Ninety three point one w POC traffic.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
From a traffic standpoint, ever since the bridge went down.
On my traffic screen, there's all of these like closed
warnings about the bridge, and like I have to scroll
past them every day, and it's just constant remind I know,
and I'm sure that people feel like that when they're
sitting in the tunnel traffic or this. You know, So

police radio.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
Bethanye, you want to set it up. Yeah, So this
was the Dolly was headed for the bridge, right.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
There must have been some sort of an SOS call
and dispatchers decided if we have to shut the bridge down,
and this is the.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Call to follow, the police scrambled.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Oh and I should mention that Sergeant Pastoric from the MDTA,
he was one of the first on the scene. You'll
hear him, and he sat down a couple days ago
and remembered what was going through his head when I.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
First saw the scene. It was been everwhelming.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
Kind of A year later, you know, we're coming up
on the anniversary, still have the same feelings. We still
lost the same six souls that we were unable to
u save that night.
Speaker 6 (14:06):
One of you guys on the south side, one of
you guys on the north side, hold on traffic on
the key Bridge. There's a ship approach you has just
lost their steering, so that under control. We got to
stop all traffic. Yeah, we're all humming around through south
front just ut to starting. I'm holding traffic now. I
was dragging when we stopped prior to the bridge, so
(14:28):
I'll have a whole How does the traffic stop?
Speaker 4 (14:32):
Ten four?
Speaker 6 (14:32):
Is there a crew work on the bridge right now? Okay, good, fine,
the crowd traffic on the site right now? Yeah, if
we can stop traffic to make sure no one's on
the bridge right now, I'm not sure where uh there's
a crew up there. You might want to notify whoever.
The format is that if we can get them off
(14:54):
the bridge, diperily say for one the other unit gets here,
I'll right up on the fridge. I have all an
loop traffic stopped at this time. That's once you get here,
although bred the uh workers on the key Bridge and
then stop the outer loop. Two thirteen this X the
whole bridge.
Speaker 7 (15:13):
Just found down. Start start whoever to everybody, the whole
bridge just elapsed. Well, this lunch is directed, that's correct,
there's time.
Speaker 6 (15:25):
If you know, all.
Speaker 7 (15:26):
Traffic was stopping. I can't get to the other side
where the bridge is down. We're gonna have to get
somebody on the other side. The anamon, the county MSP
to be up here and stop traffic coming north down
on the Key Bridge.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Ninety three point one w POC traffic.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
And that's what the police said back and forth.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
And fortunately these officers, uh, they were able to save many,
many other cars from being on the bridge at the
time that collapsed because they had what about a minute, god,
barely a minute just shut it down.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Yeah, I mean it happened very quickly.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
We're thinking about everybody involved in that and all the
lives that it changed. A ninety five southbound between ninety
five and the Harbor Tunnel north End, we're sitting there
for about half an hour. The outer loop between bel
Air Road and York Road is another rough spot out
there in ninety five southbound before the four.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
Well, that's good.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
I keep out in the loop of entertainment and pop
culture and the things we shouldn't care about.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
But somehow we really do. It's Abrey on.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Ninety three point one WOC.

You may have heard a rumor that Chipotle is filing
for bankruptcy. They want you to know that it's just
a rumor. I never heard that that's one restaurant or
the whole jam. They're just not It's just a rumor.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Don't be scared. I guess they did.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
They invested in some other restaurant and that's not doing well,
so they're folding off that part of the company.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
But I heard a woman complaining about a Chipotle at
one restaurant lately. But I haven't alred anything bad about
the company. Right, it makes people vomb sometimes in a
big deal, all right.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Disney Plus is reviving Malcolm in the Middle with a
four episode limited series, revealing the Wilkerson's sixth child.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
Sounds like they like the show, but they're not ready
to commit. They're just doing four. I think they couldn't
get a lot of the cast to come back. A
lot of them are pretty big names.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
So okay, it's always a big day in the country
music world. But they just announced the Hall of Fame

than half of Americans say retired products are more important
to them than anything that current brands have to offer.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
So which products are they speaking of that they miss
so badly?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
They miss Atari, banana ness, quick BlackBerry phones, iPods, and
Serge soda.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
Is there anything you missed from your childhood that's like retired. No,
I don't miss anything.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
So ninety three point one WPOC traffic.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Five southbound is crawling between ninety five and the Harvard Tunnel.
Looks like it's backed up for about forty minutes, So
steer clear there.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
If you can't.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Betweens, we're gonna jump on the hot seat here in
a minute. But I wanted to ask Bethany a question first,
because you know a lot about real estate, you know
a lot about houses, and I'm just wondering, does anybody
else feel pressure because of Chip and Joanna? Because I
watch them. They're always a happy couple. They're so upbeat.
(19:32):
I mean, I love them, but they're always they're always on,
and they say that everybody needs. And the colors that
they're recommending, I wanted to run these past to you, okay, Greens, blues,
and whites.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
They say those are the colors that are in h
and they say, we gotta do it.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Magnolia Green everywhere. Isn't that ironic? That's what it's called,
uh huh, because Magnolia Network is what they are name
of their company.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
I can't wait for those two not to be happy, though,
because they're always so Jipper, and I'm like, huh, you
know what I mean? Is that a bad thing? They're
so happy?
Speaker 1 (20:06):
No, I feel like I feel like most couples like that,
Most TV couples like that. You end up hearing about
a scandal. So it's like, well, no, I don't want
that to happen to them.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
But yeah, they always they always say this on every
remodel too, if you've watched them, and I've watched a
lot of those shows, Yeah, they always.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
They always come in and say, we got to knock
the walls down.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
We need an open right, what is wrong with rooms?
Because you know, I remember when I was a kid,
we have a lot of rooms, you know what I mean.
There was a living room, there was a dining room.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
I think post pandemic because everybody didn't want to be
on top of each other anymore.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
Right, Like people are starting to.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Be like, okay with walls again, they're like, oh, you
know what, we could have the living room separate from
the kitchen.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
We don't.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
We could have that, and why do we have when
we were kids that living room that you couldn't go in.
We had a living room and it was with white
carpeting and you couldn't go in there.
Speaker 6 (20:58):
Uh huh.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
In fact, I remember Nay who had plastic over their
fancy couch. Yeah, like that's the good room. We save that,
but we weren't allowed to go in there.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
But because we don't have boundaries anymore, Yeah, no, No,
kids can go anywhere. Yeah, and they can run into
your bedroom and you know it's like, yeah, knock once
in a while. Anyway, I just think it's funny do people.
I don't think anybody still puts plastic covers in their couches.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
I bet there are some grandmas out there that are
sitting on some plastic fancy room.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Don't go in there sitting on plastic.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Right now, we don't sit in there. We just look
at it.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
Why why would you have a room that you don't use?
I don't know. It was crazy.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Anyway, let's get to the hot seat, and you know, Bethany,
I do want you to turn it up a notch because.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
Yeah, everybody's been doing so great on the hot seat
that I decided to.

hundred three two one thirty six ninety three.

(22:24):
be great because it's all about the Orioles. You know,

Hey guys, it's Bethany from the Michael J. Morning Show.
You're listening to Michael J and Bethany after Hours.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Michael J and Bethany, we are all about our hometown
of Baltimore, and as sun comes up over Charms City.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Ninety three void one WPOC now truly one.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Year ago today, the iconic Francis Scott Key Bridge right
here in Baltimore struck by a massive container ship and
plunged into the Potapsco River. The bridge was one hundred
and eighty five feet high and it was up as
part of the Baltimore skyline for fifty years.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
But it collapsed at about one thirty.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Am, exactly one year ago today and changed the city forever.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
It did.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
And the moments that that happened stopped us because if
you'll remember, there was very quick response by MDTA police
officers who fortunately were able to save lives because they
kept others from driving out onto the bridge, stopped traffic,
having no idea of how serious it was. M DTA
(01:11):
Police First Sergeant Paul Pistoric was one of those officers,
and you're going to hear him in the police audio
we're going to play in a moment, But first he
sat down and remembered his thoughts. Now, a year after
that tragic morning.
Speaker 5 (01:27):
When I first saw the scene, it was dead everwhelming.
A year later, you know, we're coming up on the anniversary.
Still had the same feelings. We still lost the same
six souls that we were unable to save that night.
Speaker 6 (01:43):
He one of you guys on the south side, one
of you guys on the north side, hold on traffic
on the key bridge. There's a ship approaching has just
lost their steering, so that under control. We got to
stop off traffic. Yeah, we're well comming around through south right,
so I start team. I'm holding traffic now. I was
dragging when we stopped prior to the bridge, so I'll
(02:06):
have a whole How does the traffic stop?
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Ten four?
Speaker 6 (02:09):
Is there a crew work on the bridge right now?
Speaker 7 (02:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (02:13):
OK, wine with the good finding crowd traffic on our
site right now? Yeah, if we can stop traffic, just
make sure no one's on the bridge right now. I'm
not sure where. Uh there's a crew up there. You
might want to notify whoever. The format is if we
can get them off the bridge, that really say for
once the other unit gets here, all right, up on
(02:35):
the fridge. I have all a loop traffic stop at
this time. That's once you get here, I'll never brad
the workers on the key bridge and then stop the
outer loop.
Speaker 7 (02:49):
Take thirteenth this beach. The whole bridge just found down.
Start starts, whoever, everybody. The whole bridge just collapsed. Well,
this class is erect.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
That's correct. For first time.
Speaker 6 (03:02):
You you know, wall traffic was up.
Speaker 7 (03:05):
I can't get to the other side, so.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
The bridge is down. We're gonna have.
Speaker 7 (03:10):
To get somebody on the other side of the Anamoma
County MSP to get up here and.
Speaker 6 (03:14):
Stop traffic coming northbound on a T bridge. And I'm
holding all traffic northbound.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
It was the middle of the night when this happened,
but it was at this moment with sunrise that we
got to see clearly that the change of Baltimore's smile
it was gone.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Bridge no longer stood.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
So we take this moment to remember thanking all of
our police who were there to save so many lives.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
When I got the news today.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I did, and we remember that seven people were on
the bridge when it went down. Only one survived. The
men who died, Carlos Daniel Hernandez, Alijandro Hernandez, Fuentes, Maynor Sandoval,
(04:14):
Miguel Gonzalez, Jose Lopez, and Dorlean Cabrera. So their families,
I'm sure are having a rough morning as the entire
city remembers.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Ninety three point one w POC traffic.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
From a traffic standpoint, ever since the bridge went down.
On my traffic screen, there's all of these like closed
warnings about the bridge, and like I have to scroll
past them every day, and it's just constant remind I know,
and I'm sure that people feel like that when they're
sitting in the tunnel traffic or this. You know, So
we're thinking about you this morning, if your life got
(04:52):
changed from that in that accident, all right, A ninety
five southbound between Lombard and the Harbor Tunnel.

I want to remind you of what happened on the
police radio.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
Bethanye, you want to set it up. Yeah, So this
was the Dolly was headed for the bridge, right.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
There must have been some sort of an SOS call
and dispatchers decided if we have to shut the bridge down,
and this is the.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Call to follow, the police scrambled.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Oh and I should mention that Sergeant Pastoric from the MDTA,
he was one of the first on the scene. You'll
hear him, and he sat down a couple days ago
and remembered what was going through his head when I.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
First saw the scene. It was been everwhelming.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
Kind of A year later, you know, we're coming up
on the anniversary, still have the same feelings. We still
lost the same six souls that we were unable to
u save that night.
Speaker 6 (14:06):
One of you guys on the south side, one of
you guys on the north side, hold on traffic on
the key Bridge. There's a ship approach you has just
lost their steering, so that under control. We got to
stop all traffic. Yeah, we're all humming around through south
front just ut to starting. I'm holding traffic now. I
was dragging when we stopped prior to the bridge, so
(14:28):
I'll have a whole How does the traffic stop?
Speaker 4 (14:32):
Ten four?
Speaker 6 (14:32):
Is there a crew work on the bridge right now? Okay, good, fine,
the crowd traffic on the site right now? Yeah, if
we can stop traffic to make sure no one's on
the bridge right now, I'm not sure where uh there's
a crew up there. You might want to notify whoever.
The format is that if we can get them off
(14:54):
the bridge, diperily say for one the other unit gets here,
I'll right up on the fridge. I have all an
loop traffic stopped at this time. That's once you get here,
although bred the uh workers on the key Bridge and
then stop the outer loop. Two thirteen this X the
whole bridge.
Speaker 7 (15:13):
Just found down. Start start whoever to everybody, the whole
bridge just elapsed. Well, this lunch is directed, that's correct,
there's time.
Speaker 6 (15:25):
If you know, all.
Speaker 7 (15:26):
Traffic was stopping. I can't get to the other side
where the bridge is down. We're gonna have to get
somebody on the other side. The anamon, the county MSP
to be up here and stop traffic coming north down
on the Key Bridge.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Ninety three point one w POC traffic.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
And that's what the police said back and forth.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
And fortunately these officers, uh, they were able to save many,
many other cars from being on the bridge at the
time that collapsed because they had what about a minute, god,
barely a minute just shut it down.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Yeah, I mean it happened very quickly.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
We're thinking about everybody involved in that and all the
lives that it changed. A ninety five southbound between ninety
five and the Harbor Tunnel north End, we're sitting there
for about half an hour. The outer loop between bel
Air Road and York Road is another rough spot out
there in ninety five southbound before the four.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
Well, that's good.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
I keep out in the loop of entertainment and pop
culture and the things we shouldn't care about.

Ninety three point one WOC.

the whole jam. They're just not It's just a rumor.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Don't be scared. I guess they did.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
They invested in some other restaurant and that's not doing well,
so they're folding off that part of the company.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
But I heard a woman complaining about a Chipotle at
one restaurant lately. But I haven't alred anything bad about
the company. Right, it makes people vomb sometimes in a
big deal, all right.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Disney Plus is reviving Malcolm in the Middle with a
four episode limited series, revealing the Wilkerson's sixth child.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
Sounds like they like the show, but they're not ready
to commit. They're just doing four. I think they couldn't
get a lot of the cast to come back. A
lot of them are pretty big names.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
So okay, it's always a big day in the country
music world. But they just announced the Hall of Fame

than half of Americans say retired products are more important
to them than anything that current brands have to offer.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
So which products are they speaking of that they miss
so badly?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
They miss Atari, banana ness, quick BlackBerry phones, iPods, and
Serge soda.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
Is there anything you missed from your childhood that's like retired. No,
I don't miss anything.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
So ninety three point one WPOC traffic.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Five southbound is crawling between ninety five and the Harvard Tunnel.
Looks like it's backed up for about forty minutes, So
steer clear there.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
If you can't.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Betweens, we're gonna jump on the hot seat here in
a minute. But I wanted to ask Bethany a question first,
because you know a lot about real estate, you know
a lot about houses, and I'm just wondering, does anybody
else feel pressure because of Chip and Joanna? Because I
watch them. They're always a happy couple. They're so upbeat.
(19:32):
I mean, I love them, but they're always they're always on,
and they say that everybody needs. And the colors that
they're recommending, I wanted to run these past to you, okay, Greens, blues,
and whites.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
They say those are the colors that are in h
and they say, we gotta do it.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Magnolia Green everywhere. Isn't that ironic? That's what it's called,
uh huh, because Magnolia Network is what they are name
of their company.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
I can't wait for those two not to be happy, though,
because they're always so Jipper, and I'm like, huh, you
know what I mean? Is that a bad thing? They're
so happy?
Speaker 1 (20:06):
No, I feel like I feel like most couples like that,
Most TV couples like that. You end up hearing about
a scandal. So it's like, well, no, I don't want
that to happen to them.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
But yeah, they always they always say this on every
remodel too, if you've watched them, and I've watched a
lot of those shows, Yeah, they always.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
They always come in and say, we got to knock
the walls down.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
We need an open right, what is wrong with rooms?
Because you know, I remember when I was a kid,
we have a lot of rooms, you know what I mean.
There was a living room, there was a dining room.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
I think post pandemic because everybody didn't want to be
on top of each other anymore.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
Right, Like people are starting to.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Be like, okay with walls again, they're like, oh, you
know what, we could have the living room separate from
the kitchen.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
We don't.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
We could have that, and why do we have when
we were kids that living room that you couldn't go in.
We had a living room and it was with white
carpeting and you couldn't go in there.
Speaker 6 (20:58):
Uh huh.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
In fact, I remember Nay who had plastic over their
fancy couch. Yeah, like that's the good room. We save that,
but we weren't allowed to go in there.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
But because we don't have boundaries anymore, Yeah, no, No,
kids can go anywhere. Yeah, and they can run into
your bedroom and you know it's like, yeah, knock once
in a while. Anyway, I just think it's funny do people.
I don't think anybody still puts plastic covers in their couches.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
I bet there are some grandmas out there that are
sitting on some plastic fancy room.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Don't go in there sitting on plastic.
Speaker 3 (21:31):

at it.
