Ugly Quacking Duck duck, theworst podcast in the known

(01:26):
universe.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
Welcome aboard, everyone the worst podcast is an
understatement yeah, you cansay that again.
I'm here and it's the worst,worst but when I'm here it's the

We are very thankful.
She called me this morning andasked me what I was doing after
work.
Well, I was already off, so wedecided to go get her and put
together a podcast.
Now, this one is a little bittoo soon.

(02:06):
We have just did one on the17th and we wasn't planning on
doing another one.
But since she called, why not?
We'll do a quick report andthen we'll go on and talk to her
for a little bit.
It'll be a good time.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Got a lot of ketchup on here.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
There we go.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
Oh, how I miss that laugh.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Yeah, it's been kind of nice, hasn't it, not being
here, but we'll go over thequickly.
But we'll go over them quickly.
We'll go over the earthquakereport.
I've already jotted the numbersdown and I'm going to have Lily
write them down for us while Iread them.
That way we won't have to waiton them.
And really I was going to do ashort report and maybe write it

(03:06):
up and put it on the web page,but since she texted me, we'll
just do the whole thing.
But why it's important isbecause of some of the
earthquakes that got hit.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
Yes, it makes me kind of sad how many earthquakes?
Because I actually read anarticle out that there's more
earthquakes than there has beenin a whole month.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Yeah, there's been quite a few.
We'll go over that.
You want to go over that rightnow?
Let's go over that right now.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
Let's go over it.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
I keep hitting my mic .
I don't think it's going towork out.
I think I'm going to have tomove it.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Yeah, move it up.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Move it up a little bit.
Move it up a little bit.

Speaker 5 (03:48):
We'll see what happens.
We'll see what happens.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahyeah.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
All right, guys, quit yelling.

Speaker 3 (03:59):
Go take a bath.
How about that?
Go take one.
Nope, I think I'm going to gotake one.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Nope, I think I'm going to stay in Agrabah.
Eww, eww, eww.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
Sonny, you're going to take one at some point.
You were jumping in muddypuddles when I arrived here.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Yeah, he likes doing that.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
Like Peppa Pig.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
It's supposed to be really hot this week, but today
it's not too bad.
It's about 82.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
last time I looked it's very humid, though it
rained all morning.
Right it rained all morning.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Yeah, it definitely did.
All right, let's get back tothe report.
Oh shabam, if you've not heardthe Ug, look the ugly quacking
duck podcast before, again, thisis episode 115, and what we do
is we read the last seven dayearthquake report.

(04:58):
We're reading it for this year,for 2019, and for 2018.
So that's why we're notguessing much anymore.
But anyway, we'll just quicklygo over that.
If you want to go back and goto our webpage,
theuglyquackingduckcom, go tothe support page, go down to the

(05:22):
bottom.
You can actually print off thispaperwork.
Yes, that she's getting readyto use.

Speaker 3 (05:30):
It actually has all four.
It's a seven-day report, but ithas four of them, and the last
one is 30 days.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
Which we don't do that until the end of the month.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
Yeah, we don't do them until the end of the month.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Which is coming really quick.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Really quick the month.
We don't do them until the endof the month, which is coming
really quick, really quick, andit has the all magnitudes and
all the magnitudes and it hasthe 6.0 and over and the
location of those six points andover there you go, so I'm going
to read them off to you.
To start out here we go free,you don't have to pay for it.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
All you have to do is use paper to print it, or you
can download it on your computerand fill it in.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
Actually, I think my people might prefer that.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
Prefer that.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
You can download it, yes, for free.
You can change it if you wantFor free, all right.
So we're going to start off.
I put this together thismorning before I went and got
her, so it's changed a littlebit, but we're going to go ahead
and use the numbers that we hadbefore.
So, starting for 72125, whichis today Yep, the all magnitude

(06:40):
number is 2418 2418.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
That's a lot.

Speaker 1 (06:45):
Yeah, 18, 2418.
And the percentage is.
You see that little percentagesign?
Yep, it's 24.2, 24 and I getthat for taking the 24 18 into
the 10,000 count of earthquakes.

(07:05):
That's how I do that.
Now the 2.5 and over is 563,which is a lot bigger 563?
.
Yep, that's quite a bit, andthe average is 23.3, and I get
that by taking the 563 into the2418.

Speaker 5 (07:25):
Bro is smart.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
And then the 4.5 and over earthquakes amounts to 190.
Okay, which is 7.9%.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
Do I put that at the bottom?

Speaker 1 (07:40):
Yeah, right below it.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
Does the 2.5 plus magnitude have the same thing?

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
I didn't get that one 23.3.
23.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
I may not have read it.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
You might have and I just didn't catch it.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
That's all right.
Sometimes, and then there'squite a few earthquakes, all
right.
And then there's quite a fewearthquakes, all right.
Now, the 6.0 and over is theonly ones we write down, because
that's the really main problemones.
And there were several, there'sactually eight, eight.

Speaker 3 (08:18):
That's more than usual.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
A lot more than usual .
Now, some of them showed uplast week on our report because,
like I said, we just did thison the 17th.
But we're going to go over itand I'm going to do them in
order as they show up on thereport, so the newest ones are
first.

Speaker 5 (08:40):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
So, excuse me, the first one was at Sandpoint,
alaska.
Okay, it was a 6.2.

Speaker 5 (08:49):
6.2, Sandpoint.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
Yeah, and it was Sandpoint Alaska.

Speaker 3 (08:59):
I'm just talking to the mic.
When I write these things down,I always do that on my bed.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
That's no problem.
And then the next one was 6.0.
6.0.
Into the mic.
When I write these things down,I always do that.
My bad, that's no problem.
And then the next one was 6.06.0 and it was in russia russia
and then the next one was 6.66.0 also in russia.
Russia, actually, it's notactually in Russia, it's on the

(09:26):
coast of Russia, on the edge.

Speaker 3 (09:29):
I'll put on the coast of Russia.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
That's alright, it's right on the edge, just like at
Sandpoint, alaska was right onthe edge of Alaska.
These two earthquakes if youlooked on a map you would see
that they're really closetogether.
Russia and alaska, that, umvery edge points, are really

(09:54):
close together.
Um just a little bit of oceanand land between them and that's
where they're hitting that'slike what I think mostly happens
in between the ocean and thenland.
Yeah, most common.

Speaker 5 (10:12):
Then the next one's, another 6.6.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
Dang, and it's also in Russia.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
Wow, Russia's getting all of it.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
Yeah, and then the next one was a 7.4 in Russia.

Speaker 3 (10:24):
That's like the first I've ever seen a 7.4, like
doing the whole podcast.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
It's a big one.
And then before they had the7.4, they had another 6.6 in
Russia.
So if you look at the timeline,what happened?

Speaker 3 (10:53):
they had a 6.6, a 7.4 and then they had a 6.6, 6.6,
6.0 aftershocks.
If you guys like, if you lookon this paper, like I tweeted
the podcast, all you're going tosee is sand point, alaska
russia, coastal russia, russia,russia, russia, because this is
all Russia.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Yeah, russia I mean, excuse me, sandpoint had some
other earthquakes after their7.3.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
They had a 7.3?
Yep, I thought it was a 6.2.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
No, that's next 7.3, alaska, and they had some like
that 6.2 at the beginning andthey had some fives.

Speaker 3 (11:31):
Some fives.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Yeah, that's why you don't see them listed.
And the last one, number eight,is a 6.2 in Panama.

Speaker 3 (11:41):
I don't know how to spell that.

Speaker 1 (11:43):
P-A-N.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
P-A-N.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
P-A-N, a-m-a.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
A-M-A.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
Hey, yay.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
Panama City Beach, Florida.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
No, I'm just kidding.
No, this is Panama, the actualcountry, panama.
Oh, and then let's go to.
I want to move that mic alittle bit.
I hope that didn't hurt anybody.
Let's go to the year 2019.
So that'll be your next columndown.

Speaker 5 (12:12):
This one.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
Yeah, so what do?

Speaker 1 (12:17):
I do as a date 7-21-2019.

Speaker 3 (12:21):
We're going back in the day, we're teleporting.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yep, we're going backwards.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
So 7-21.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
2019.
2019.
And the reason we are doingthat is because of the seven-day
break.
I think it's going to be asix-day or six-year also.

Speaker 5 (12:39):
Oh, all right.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
But I've been going back for the last few weeks.

Speaker 3 (12:44):
I forgot to ask you did the all-magnitude get a
percentage?

Speaker 1 (12:48):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Was it the one that was?

Speaker 1 (12:50):
24.2.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
Okay, because I thought it went at the bottom.
But I was like, no, that'sprobably the one.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Oh, that reminds me there should be a percentage at
the bottom of your sixes.
It's to the left of it.

Speaker 3 (13:06):
I don't see them.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
Look down the 6.0 column.

Speaker 5 (13:11):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
And then look, left just a little bit all the way
down.

Speaker 3 (13:17):
Oh yeah, I see that one.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
All right, that's a 4.2.

Speaker 5 (13:21):
4.2.
There you go, all 4.2.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
There you go, alrighty.
Okay, let's go to 7-21-2019.
We skipped backwards a fewyears.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
I remember this year.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
Time jumped.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
It's the best year I've ever had Best summer.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
All right.
So the all magnitude is 8,183.
And that's not even the largestwe've had for that year.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
So 8,000.
I forgot the number.
I'm so shocked 8,183.
83.
Yeah, what's that percentage?

Speaker 1 (14:01):
81.8.
81.8.
Wow, just to give you areference point.
Guess what last week's allnumbers was?
Okay On 7-17-2019.

Speaker 3 (14:15):
Well if we're guessing, and it's 2-4-1-18.
2-4-1-8.
I said that so wrong.
2019.
2019?
In 2019?
Guess what it was I thought youmeant wrong 2019.

Speaker 1 (14:23):
2019?
, in 2019?
Guess what it was.

Speaker 3 (14:27):
I thought you meant last week, like in this year.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
The last seven days of last 19.
However, you want to say that6,000.
No, you're way off 7,000.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
No.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
You're way off.
7,000.
No, you're way off 2,000.

Speaker 3 (14:48):
No 3,000.
No 4,000.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
No, you ready for me to give it to you 5,000.
No.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
One.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
No 10,000?

Speaker 3 (15:00):
No, yeah, just give it to me 11,724.
Yeah, oh, Sonny, you're beingquite over there.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
See what I did.
I went back and looked up someearthquake reports from
different years and when Istumbled on 2019, I went oh my
gosh, these numbers are high.

Speaker 3 (15:26):
That was right before the COVID year, so I'm kind of
shocked, but I'm not thatshocked.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
Yeah, well, 2018, which is seven years back from
this year.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
That's what it means as mirror, I'm pretty sure, Matt
.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
They're not as bad, but they're high.
Not as bad, but they're high.
So if we take the seven day andmake it a seven year, that
means next year will probably bepretty high.
Yeah probably so.
We'll have to watch and payattention, but anyhow, all right
.
So back to the 2019-7-21.

(16:04):
Back to the 2019-7-21, the 2.5and over numbers are 759.
759.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:19):
And they're 9.3%, 9.3 .
Yeah, that's actually soshocking.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
Yeah, isn't it?
It's weird how that.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
You always hear that earthquakes are getting worse,
but when I went back and look atthat year, it's not quite as
worse.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
That door just moved, that door I'm leaving All right
, that door just moved that I'mleaving all right.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
Well, the 4.5 now and over is 206.

Speaker 3 (16:55):
That seems common.
Yeah, more common 206.
What's the percentage?

Speaker 1 (16:58):
2.5 percent 2.5%.
And then of the 206, there wasthree that was six and over.
Okay, the first one's a 6.3,and it's in Papua New Guinea 6.3
in Papua New Guinea.
New Guinea.

Speaker 3 (17:19):
New Guinea.
Can you spell it out for me?

Speaker 1 (17:20):
No, okay.

Speaker 5 (17:33):
It's Papa P-a-p-a, p-a-p-a, and then new n-e-w and
then guineas g-u-i-n-e-a I feellike we've spelt that before.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
I feel like that we've done that either like two
months ago, because it pops up alot, get it, papa, papa, all
right.
The next one was a 7.2 inIndonesia 7.2.

Speaker 5 (17:59):
Yep Indonesia.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
Yep, yep.

Speaker 5 (18:01):
In Indonesia.

Speaker 3 (18:06):
Yep, now I spelled my best spelling that because we
actually did a spelling bee onthat.
So I'm trying to work on itbecause we're doing it again
this year.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
Well, good luck on that.
Yeah, thank you.
And then the last one's a 6.6,and it's at Cable Beach,
Australia.

Speaker 3 (18:25):
You can just write Australia down, if you want, I
put Aussie, aussie, okay.
But I can put Australia if youwant me to.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
That's all right.
It's true, I'm getting a slightecho with that new mic.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
It kind of sounds neat.
Actually, do I need to switchit, or is it good?
I like it.
Is it good?

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Okay, that made me worried for a minute if I hadn't
told people that they wouldn'thave known I just switched your
mic we're doing it.

Speaker 3 (18:52):
You can probably hear the difference maybe it sounds
good.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
It does sound good.
That's the one I used to usewhen we was in the garage,
remember it is yeah, for realyeah oh it looks.

Speaker 3 (19:09):
It looks brand new.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
Sorry, that's all right, my throat okay, and the
last year will be 7 21 2018,2018.

Speaker 5 (19:22):
721.

Speaker 1 (19:23):
2018.

Speaker 3 (19:25):
2018.
It's crazy to think that I wassix, five, I don't remember
Probably like around six or fivein that year, quite a while
back.
And I'm about to be 12 in amonth.

Speaker 1 (19:38):
This is our seven-year stretch, from that
year to 18 to this year, 2025.
So if they follow suit, like Isaid, our seven day report seems
to kind of flow that way.
If they follow the seven yearplan, I'm gonna call it a plan

(20:01):
2019.
Seven years from that will be2026.
So 2026 could be a verydifficult year.

Speaker 3 (20:12):
It's probably going to be the most stressful year.

Speaker 1 (20:15):
Bobby just left.

Speaker 3 (20:17):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
She snuck out the door.
She said peace.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
And then there goes Winnie Yep, all right, and then
there goes Winnie Yep.

Speaker 1 (20:24):
All right, so the total of all for 2018 is 7,787.

Speaker 3 (20:35):
My brain is shattered .
This is too much math.
There's too much numbers on mysummer break.
So seven, what?

Speaker 1 (20:42):
700.
No 7,787.

Speaker 3 (20:48):
87.
So it would be 7,807?
.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
No 7,787.

Speaker 3 (20:56):
Oh, 7,787.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
7,787.

Speaker 3 (21:01):
7,787.

Speaker 1 (21:03):
Exactly All right, and that percentage would be87.
Exactly All right, and thatpercentage would be 77.9.

Speaker 5 (21:09):
77.9.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
And then the 2.5 and over would be 1920.
1920.
1920.

Speaker 3 (21:20):
1920.

Speaker 1 (21:23):
And their percentage is 24.7.

Speaker 5 (21:27):
24.7.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
And then the 4.5 and over is 122.
122.

Speaker 3 (21:36):
122.
My 2s look like a Zs.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
And it's a 1.6.
1.6.

Speaker 5 (21:44):
1.6.
, 1.6.
, 1.6.
, okay, 1.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
Okay, sorry.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
And then there's 4.
, 6.0 and overs.

Speaker 5 (21:57):
Alright.

Speaker 1 (21:59):
The first one is guess where?

Speaker 1 (30:05):
Well, good, I'm glad you got to have a little bit of
fun.
You got to see the ocean.

Speaker 3 (30:13):
I got to see the ocean and get in the ocean, have
some seashells yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:18):
Now we went down and seen the ocean years ago, when
you was really small and you didnot like it.

Speaker 3 (30:24):
I've never liked the ocean.
I've always hated the ocean forsome reason.
I think it was just like thesharks and like the jellyfish.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
But you got in it this time, right, I did.

Speaker 3 (30:33):
I got in the waves too.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
Cool.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
Yeah, we saw sharks too.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
I bet there's a lot of them.

Speaker 3 (30:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
Seems like there's more of them.

Speaker 3 (30:44):
We were like at the beginning of the Pacific Ocean.
So a lot of sharks, yeah, a lotof sharks.

Speaker 5 (30:56):
A lot of sharks.

Speaker 1 (30:58):
Did see any um stingrays or anything like that
uh, no, not that I know of Iknow every time I've been down
we got to see the stingrays.

Speaker 3 (31:09):
We don't really go that deep in there, though we
don't really go that deep in theocean, I don't.
I don't really go that deep inthe ocean.
I don't go that deep in theocean.
I stay like.

Speaker 1 (31:18):
Right on the edge, huh.

Speaker 3 (31:19):
No, Like this is the sand.
That's how far I'll go.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
And for people that can't see her hands.

Speaker 3 (31:30):
It's like one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
seven feet from shore, if you'rebeing technical.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
And it doesn't drop off very quick.
You have to go out quite a waysbefore the water starts
dropping off.

Speaker 3 (31:45):
I wouldn't be like, not like like when the waves
start, I wouldn't be like in themiddle of it, because it's just
nice to like, go and feel thenice cold water.
The water was so cold, itrained, that's one so cold.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
It rained.
That's one thing I gotsurprised about Every time I've
been to any of the oceans,except for the one place in the
Gulf.
I went and the water wasactually warm.
But, everywhere else we wentswimming, and when I went to
California, I went surfingactually, and I couldn't last
very long because I wasn'tdressed for it.
We went swimming and when Iwent to California, I went

(32:17):
surfing, actually, mm-hmm, and Icouldn't last very long because
I wasn't dressed for it.
It was cold and I was shockedbecause I feared the ocean would
be nice and warm.

Speaker 5 (32:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
And then, when I was younger, we went to West
Virginia and we went swimmingand it was freaking cold.

Speaker 3 (32:34):
Yeah, yeah, went swimming and it was freaking
cold.
Yeah, um, yeah, I was.
I was expecting it to be likesemi, semi cold, semi warm but
no, it was freezing.
Yeah, that's that ocean andthen it rained all night oh
midday.
Yeah, definitely recommend notgoing to the Ocean Street after

(32:57):
you get out of the car Rest fora minute.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
Take a break, I don't like.

Speaker 3 (33:04):
If you ever go to Daytona Beach, do not stay at
the one that has that's yellowand it's small, horrible beds.
Water all over the fridge, bigbathroom, but horrible beds, not
a comfortable, comfortable beddo not sleep there, do not stay.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
They have a lot of turnover people coming and going
all the time.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
The disney one was actually fairly fancy.
They had a disney alexa inthere when we walked in.
The tv had her name on it.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
yeah, you sent me a picture, a picture.
That was cool, that was cool.

Speaker 3 (33:36):
I had my own card.
I got Simba from Lion Kingbecause I'm like a child, but
yeah, it was a lot of fun,definitely.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
So you've got memories that should last you
for a long time.

Speaker 3 (33:51):
But there's a story behind it that no one knows.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
What's that?

Speaker 3 (33:55):
I had no phone.

Speaker 1 (34:00):
Oh yeah, Tell us about that.
You was on your way down.

Speaker 3 (34:05):
It was a nice 7 pm evening.
Someone's going down.
We had to potty.
We turned to the nearest gasstation.
I take my phone into thebathroom, we do our business, we
wash our hands.
I walk out with the bathroom.
I walk out.

Speaker 1 (34:24):
Walk out with the bathroom.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
I walk out of the bathroom with the phone in my
hand.
If I can remember correctly, Imight have, I might have put it
on top of the car, I might haveleft it on top of the car, but I
left it in the bathroom.
Well, about five minutes awayfrom the gas station, where is

(34:47):
my phone?
No idea.
We stop again, lily, lookingfor my iPhone.
No sign of it.
So we go on after tears andsleep.
We arrive in Daytona and wecheck and find my iPhone.

(35:09):
It's on the interstate ofTennessee we call the Tennessee
police.
They go out and they will giveus a call back when they find it
.
They found my case.
I put the alert thing that youcan do For my iPhone and they
found my phone no damages Great,I spent a whole vacation
without it, got it back Afterthe vacation and loved it.

(35:33):
I loved having it back.
It felt so nice you're attachedto it three days later not even
like maybe four I drop it inthe pool and you had it at the
pool at my own pool lessonlearned.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
What do you do with a phone when you get near water?

Speaker 3 (35:55):
You drop it.
So I have a new phone now.
So for all you guys that wantto take your phone to the pool,
keep it at least six feet awayfrom the pool.
Do not take your phone to thepool, not even with a pouch.
Yeah, so that's my story of howI had to get a new phone.

Speaker 5 (36:10):
Yeah, what an interesting story.

Speaker 3 (36:15):
Yeah, that's a story, yeah.

Speaker 1 (36:17):

Speaker 2 (38:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (38:42):
We just God bless all of you.

Speaker 1 (38:45):
I guess the Grand Canyon had a bunch of fire.
Uh like 55 000 worth of I neverheard of that before.

Speaker 3 (38:52):
Are you for real?

Speaker 1 (38:54):
I am for real it um.
Let's see.
I think I've got it stored onhere.
Let me see I would have to lookthat up, because I have not uh
firefighters in arizona arebattling a pair of fast-moving
wildfires in and near grandcanyon I see they've burned more
than 55 000 acres of land.

Speaker 3 (39:17):
Yeah, if y'all guys have tiktok to search up grand
canyon fires and it'll, I don'tthis is an old story.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
I don't know if I got to put it out or not, but yeah,
it's not very good 55 000 acres.
It's kind of interesting howthat uh I don't know if you've
heard anything about the uhstuff that they've been finding
there over the years and it'sbeen coming out I have a voice

(39:45):
recording right here if you wantme to play it.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
If not, that's okay.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
Is it audio music?

Speaker 3 (39:51):
It's just audio.
Audio, I think.
Hold on, not the computer.

Speaker 1 (39:59):
All right, while she's talking about checking
that out, apparently they'vefound over the years lots of
different artifacts and okay,yeah, no music, just audio okay,
and but now it's starting tocome out over all those years

(40:22):
and all of a sudden they'rehaving this huge fire.

Speaker 3 (40:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (40:28):
Kind of strange.

Speaker 3 (40:29):
And we don't get answers until after it's all
done.
After it's all gone, they justsay this caused this.
Yeah, tell us before, tell usduring it, tell us what we want
to know, you know.

Speaker 1 (40:42):
It began July the 9th about 35 miles north of Dragon
Bravo Fire.
Yeah, that's the White SagaFire, and the Bravo Fire started
before that.
It looks like a mess.
Anyway, what do you want toplay?

Speaker 3 (41:01):
I can.
How long is it?
Let me see it's a 50-secondsong.

Speaker 1 (41:07):
Okay, shoot for it.
We don't know what we're gonnaget, but we're gonna leave it up
to I haven't heard the wholething, so if it's not true, I'm
very sorry.

Speaker 4 (41:18):
We'll find out arizona officials say a wildfire
at the Grand Canyon's north rimcontinues to burn and the
state's Governor, katie Hobbs,is calling for an investigation
as to how the blaze was handledas she meets with federal
officials next week.
The fire began July 4th as aresult of a lightning strike,

(41:39):
but the National Park Serviceallowed it to burn as part of a
confine and contain strategythat the Park Service has used
for decades to clear densevegetation.
The governor spoke withreporters after touring the fire
by helicopter.
It's so devastating as alifelong Arizonan.

Speaker 6 (41:56):
It just is a reminder of the shared stewardship we
have of this land and thisiconic treasure of the Grand
Canyon.

Speaker 4 (42:03):
The fire has charred more than 18 square miles of
land as of Saturday.
Of the Grand Canyon, the firehas charred more than 18 square
miles of land as of Saturday.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
All right.
Well, there you go, folks.

Speaker 3 (42:13):
When the woman was talking.
It's not very good qualitybecause you're by the fire.

Speaker 1 (42:16):
It wasn't that bad, though your phone actually does
a pretty good job.
I could have got it better if Iplugged it in, but that's all
right.

Speaker 3 (42:23):
I was kind of shocked because you said it started
july 9th 19th.

Speaker 1 (42:27):
No, that's the second .

Speaker 3 (42:27):
There's two different fires fires, yeah, in the grand
canyon burning I was kind ofshocked when they said that they
let it burn.
Yeah, it's like.
Well, why like they should?
Have we not learned our lessonby all these things?

Speaker 1 (42:46):
No, we're humans.
We don't learn the lessons.
We just repeat history over andover and over.

Speaker 3 (42:55):
And it's been.
It probably took a long timetrying to build that or trying
to make it, and people visit itmultiple times and you just let
it burn.
After everything that peopleyou've worked on creating it for
so long the world has trainedto is trying to make cool

(43:18):
landscapes.

Speaker 1 (43:19):
Don't try to make sense out of something illogical
, because you can't.
They're just.
That's the problem with allthis new stuff we try to make
logical sense out of illogicalstuff and it just don't work.
It leaves us all going what,what yeah don't do that but
anyway, I appreciate you talkingabout all the floods.

(43:46):
They're happening all over thecountry, but not only that all
over the world.

Speaker 5 (43:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:53):
It's really sickening .
There's been fires all over theworld too.

Speaker 5 (43:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:59):
Devastation.
Anyhow, we won't keep everybody.
I'm glad you came here and goton the podcast.
I'm sorry we took too much ofthe podcast trying to give us
that report.
It's kind of necessary butunnecessary, so I don't know how

(44:23):
to keep handling it.

Speaker 3 (44:24):
Yeah, but what I was trying to make sense there is
this there's really no way tomake sense of it.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
It does not.

Speaker 3 (44:33):
Just watching a beautiful place that God built
burn.

Speaker 1 (44:38):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (44:38):
Just letting it burn makes no sense.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
Well, they use that.
If it's a controlled small area, they do that to burn off all
the brush and stuff yeah butthey apparently didn't have it
under control to do anythingwith yeah all right, we're gonna

(45:01):
leave it with you guys.
Thank you for tuning in to theugly quacking duck.

Speaker 5 (45:06):

Model Wars

Model Wars

On the surface, the modeling industry in the 80s was about parties and pretty clothes, but underneath the flash, there were drugs, sex, and violence. And Paul Fisher, a former straight-A student from the San Fernando Valley, rose to prominence amidst the turmoil. After a chance encounter with an alleged mobster, Paul suddenly found himself with a million dollars in funding and the chance to start a modeling agency in New York City. The city was then embroiled in a “model war” between industry titans Eileen Ford and John Casablancas, and Paul tried to make his mark. But even as Paul thrived in the party-heavy culture of the time, burning cash like a furnace, he came face to face with the darkest forces in the industry. As his shady backers put the screws to him, Paul faced down deadly consequences, trying to make a star while saving his soul.
