Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're waking up with fifth in the morning, kiss on, Hi,
Good morning.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Imagine being stranded in Asheville in the mountains on your
bachelorette party with.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
No food, no water.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
All you have of those white ankle booties that every
girl brings on their bachelor att party.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Like I think of this stuff that I would bring
to a bachelorette party.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
It's short black dresses.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
With eight hundred pairs of underwear still lettos.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
That's it. Hopefully.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
By now you've recognized Sarah's voice, friend of of our.
She's on our radio Inner Circle here, but her real
job is down with Kick Chris, and I sent her
this story yesterday and she's like, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
We were going back and forth, so we have to
talk about this on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
First of all, I want to say there's two things
I want to say before I.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Tell you guys the full story on this one.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
First, this story comes out of Boston, and my radio
friend Ashley in the Gym in morning show interviewed this
girl because she's a Bostonian. And I'm taking the words
directly out of Ashley's mouth right now because she said
it best. If it's out of sight, it's out of mind,
and here in Cincy, we had tons of rain over
(01:15):
the last week or so, but we didn't have nearly
any damage. We actually came back in here and said, wow,
it was so nice to have rain this weekend because
our schedules weren't as.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Busy, so we were very disconnected from just how serious.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Yoh, that is so so bad.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
But we have people here locally, Matthew, twenty five ministries
they've been had now, sending over supplies and taking care
of people that did deal with it in a really
bad way. Like this story alone.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Okay, so I'll set the scene. This girl is a bride.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
She takes ten of her bridesmaids or friends on this
bachelorette trip to the mountains of Asheville. Asheville had no
idea that the hurricane was going to be as bad
as it was because of obviously they've checked the weather,
they wouldn't have gone. It just to them looked like
it was gonna be rain. At that point, You've got
eleven girls going on a trip. If it's just rain,
you're going. You can't cancel it, right. So they are
(02:11):
in the mountains, they go to bed on Thursday night.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
I think the timing on this is important.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Thursday night, a tree crashes into the Airbnb and then
I pulled the rest of the audio from my friend
Ashley's morning show, We're gonna listen together, and then debrief.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Eleven thirty am, I'd say our phones went dead, and
then from there that's when it got really scary. The
storm ended about three pm and we went outside to
kind of a spry damage yes on Friday, and that's
when we realized we were screwed. Like there were trees
down everywhere blocking the huge like nine mile highway. We
(02:45):
came up, there's a whole other side of the highway.
We hadn't even explored. It was just both ways. All
you could see is trees down, like no street. We
had nothing. We ended up having to split like a
box of noodles. We would be like I had like
one day, I had like three pieces of bacon and
like three leaves of romaine lettuce because there's so many
of us and we had there was eleven.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Yeah, it was awful.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
So by Friday, which is horrible, we were out of water.
We so actually Saturday night we heard a man's voice
and this was not the same man, So someone had
hiked the mountain, calling down to us basically hello Hello.
So we all ran outside hearing like someone's voice, and
he was like, you guys are going to be trapped
here for weeks if you don't HiPE down the mountain.
(03:29):
And then we hiked the three hours down and we
met a retired firefighter, Terrelle James.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
He goes by TJ.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
And he was so kind, put us all in the
back of his dodgechruck and drove us into town to
like a safety zone at Low's where they were giving
out far.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
And if you guys were thinking to yourself, like what
would it look like to hike down a mountain for
three hours? First off, I think this is important too.
The clothes that you guys packed were for a bachelorette party. Guys,
they didn't pack like, Hey, we're gonna be hiking down
a three hour hike down a mountain.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
We were so hungry and so thirsty. Honestly, I think
our anxiety helped with the hunger a little bit.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Yeah, Like I think, just like survivalist mode.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
But we only had one bottle of water each and
it was so taxing and like to only take one
little sip every break Yeah, this is horrible.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Yeah, Sarah going down a mountain stilettos with all your
love no cell service as an actual nightmare.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Like lifetime movie.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Yes, there could be something that we could see on Netflix.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
The point that she kept making though, is that you know,
they were mobile enough to be able to hike the
three hours down the mountain without food or water or
any of that. But everybody no, and they I cut
it out of the story, but there was a point
where they did run out of water and one of
the girls on the bachelorette party went and hiked and
found an hoa complex in this elderly couple said you
(04:57):
can take whatever you want from our hose survival mode. Yeah,
and that she made a point to say, like, there
are people still up in that mountain that can't go.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
That elderly couple can't leave.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
They have no cell service, they have no food, they
have no water, they have they just I can't say
I'm And that's just one area.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
That's one story that we're hearing about.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Like imagine all the hundreds thousands of other people that
are dealing with it's so much worse. I want to
say that I heard somewhere there are almost two hundred
fatalities just from this hurricane alone. Oh yeah, So just
because it's not bad here in Cincinnati, just you know,
have it in the back of your mind that people
are still dealing with us and it's a really bad situation.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
I'm curious.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
The Monday after the storm, I got a call and
I would like, I would die if she was listening
to our show right now. She called me and we
were talking about fears or something like that. Oh, because
of that snake in or Linger, you remember that story.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I was like, what's your biggest fear?
Speaker 2 (05:55):
And she called and she said, my biggest fear now
is hurricanes because she was in Florida and was like
stuck on a parking garage during it. So here's what
I want to do now, if there's anyone I'm just
curious to see if there are other stories out there
from Cincy. That one was obviously from Boston five one three, seven,
four nine, one oh seven one.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
And you know what, when you get home tonight.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
You need to go into your closet, Yes, look at
those white booties and pay tribute to them.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Good morning.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
You're waking up with tif in the morning, on Kiss
one oh seven one. We're still commercial free, but we're
in the midst of talking survivalists. Not that we have
any mountains here in Cincinnati, but if you had to
hike down from a bachelorette party in the midst of
hurricane damage, what type.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Of person would you be?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
If you're just kind of walking into the story. It's
gone viral now, but it's actually out of Boston. And
so I heard about this yesterday and I sent the
story to Sarah, who you've heard of my show a
bunch that morning.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
So what would you Well, this is crazy. This girl
went on a bachelorette party to Ashville.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Eleven girls stranded in the mountains, no food, no water, booties.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Schiletto pumps in.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
The club and they had to it was devastated to
hike three hours with one bottle of water in a
box of macaroni.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
To get down the mountain.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
And so Sarah and I, while the music was playing,
we were just like, dude, what would you do?
Speaker 3 (07:18):
First of all, this is so Sarah.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Sarah was like, oh my god, how would I carry
all my stuff down the mountain? Sarah, you would abandon
the white booty.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
I couldn't I could not just leave my stuff, so
I would be struggling to get down with probably my
three suitcases.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
We gave booties and makeup and clothing and party accessories
and alcohol, like stay of everything.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
And the Swan float, the swan float for the bill.
We laugh, you laugh, we're giggling down so true. What
do you take with you? What do you leave behind?
I mean, hiking down is real hard.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
I did Camelback Mountain in Arizona over the springtime, yep,
and you basically have to like crab walk your way
down when it's like real rocky, yeah, and real steep.
So I don't know what kind of conditions that they
were dealing with, but hiking down is really hard.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
We giggle about it now just because honestly, the picturing
the two of us are at the top of the mountain,
like what you're doing right now, right, what you're doing? Uh,
thinking about what you would do? But it was really
it's devastating. There's still tons of devastation in Ashville. You
and I could not be more different.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Oh wait, in every way, so many ways I can.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
It's so funny that we're friends.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Like in the men that were interested how we dress
like our everyday sort of like living life styles.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
It's just very funny.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I bet you get up a full hour earlier than
I do to put makeup on.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
You know what, I have a meeting today, so like
I had to try extra hard look good though about well,
thank you.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
But I'm just picturing us at the top of this
mountain and you you packing your stilettos, and me strapping,
strapping everyone to my back, getting ready to go hike
to find the nearest toes for us to have water.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Yep, and you're probably yelling at me like Sarah.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Leave it behind, leave the white boots.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
You don't meet them.
