Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dunkey at the date. You get dunky at day or
it's day I'm gonna fatt and all that around your
man dog and blowers man. You had to make the
(00:21):
judgment who was gonna be on the Donkey of the day.
They chose you the breakfast club bitch was donkey of
the day today? Well, donkey today for Wednesday, October twenty
seven goes to a hiker in Colorado who got lost
on a mountain for twenty four hours. And I know
what you're thinking, why oh why with Uncle Charlotte, brother Lena,
(00:41):
give a man who got lost for twenty four hours
hiking donkey at the day. Well, it's a tough one.
It's a tough one because on one hand, I feel him.
On the other hand, I'm like, I don't think he
wanted to be saved. Let me explain. This man was
reported missing after he didn't return from an expedition on
October eighteenth on Mount Elbert. Mount Elbert is the ice
peaking the state of Colorado. Now, he was lost, clearly,
(01:03):
But sometimes folks be lost to us, but to them
they just outside, all right. This kind of feels like
one of those situations, even though it's not. I know
y'all think I sound like Rafiki and the Lion King
right now, but listen to me. Pay attention, follow this
because they will all make sense in one second. Now.
If people think you're lost, the first thing I would
assume to do is call your phone, right. That's what
(01:26):
they tried to do to this hiker. And this is
where it gets tricky for me, because trust me when
I tell you, I feel how this hike could be feeling.
Let's go to kg t V ABC ten for the report. Police.
We're looking into a story that seems hard to believe.
It claims a lost hiker ignored calls from rescue Cruz
because he didn't recognize the phone number, and it's actually true.
(01:47):
The hiker was reported missing last week after he failed
to return from a trek on Mount Albert in Colorado,
and the Lake County Search and Rescue Team says they
repeatedly tried calling the hikers cell phone, but then Han
never answered because he didn't recognize the number. The hiker
did safely return to his place of lodging twenty four
(02:07):
hours later, with no idea that anyone had been looking
for him. Raise your hand if you don't answer unrecognized
phone numbers. Okay, if you, if you're driving, blow the horn.
All right. I just assumed that an unrecognized phone number
is a bill collector, all right, and you're going to
a voicemail that I will never check. Now I have
to ask another question. How lost are you really if
you don't answer the phone and people are looking for
(02:30):
you simply because you don't recognize the phone number? I
feel him. Okay, I don't answer the phone for numbers
I don't know. In fact, too many numbers I don't
know calling me is one of the main reasons I
changed my phone number. But here's the thing. I don't
know if this hiker necessarily deserves donkey today. Sounds like
the people who were looking for him deserved donkey today
because they're trying to save a person that didn't need saving.
(02:52):
Maybe Number one, he didn't answer the number. He didn't know.
Therefore he clearly wasn't spressing. He clearly didn't think he
was in danger. Okay, number you did you hear and
enter the news report? Can we played it just the
end of the news report? Is the way to do that.
The hiker spent the night searching for the trail and
bouncing between different trails to find that's not what I want.
That's not that wasn't it At the end of it.
At the end of it, they said, he made his
(03:13):
way back to his lodging. Right. If this guy was
really lost, I can't tell what if he really was lost,
round of applause for his focus, Give this mass some applause, red, Okay,
I mean, if I'm lost trying to figure my way back,
I don't want to talk to anyone on the phone either.
You ever have your GPS going driving but somebody called
you and interrupts the GPS, or you're driving and talking
(03:36):
and you're missing what the GPS is telling you because
this person wants to talk on the phone. What your
chat about? Okay, I missed me exit? All right. That's
how this man's brain was working in this moment. He
couldn't be bothered. He was too busy bouncing from trail
to trail trying to figure things out. Now, let's go
to this news report from sack by dot com. Here
this one. The hiker spent the night searching for the
(03:56):
trail and bouncing between different trails to find a trail
head where they had parked rescuers said, I don't know
if he was lost. I really don't. I really don't
know if this man was truly lost. But if he was,
like the media is reporting, I need to know his
reasoning for not answering his phone because I need that
kind of discipline in my life. Can somebody go interview
this man, Please have a conversation. I need to be
(04:18):
able to ignore my phone and other distractions under the
rest are not just like you know this individual was.
I was always taught desperate people do desperate things, and
you know, answering unrecognized phone numbers is an act of desperation.
So clearly there was nothing desperate about this man because
he didn't feel the need to answer his phone while
(04:38):
he was so called lost in the mountains. There is
a prophet, okay, a beacon of light Ning Project pat
who once said, don't save her, she don't want to
be saved. I think this supplies to this hiker. All right,
don't save this man. He didn't want to be saved.
As stupid as we want to all this man, if
(05:01):
you got to let a whole be a hole, you
gotta let a hiker be a hiker. But we can
still give him the credit he deserves from being I
guess what we would cost. Sometimes people just don't want
to be bothered. But give this the biggest sea hall anyway,
just in case he was really lost. All right, all
(05:22):
you gotta do is pick up the phone and not
say anything. Pick up the phone, baby, pick up but
then but no, that would be if people think you're lost,
right and they call your phone and somebody picks up
the phone and don't say nothing. Now they're really gonna
be destraught. Now, they're gonna really want the law enforcement
and everybody. You pick up the phone, and that's even worse. Now,
(05:44):
and she's not a reliable like a strange phone. A
strange voice picked up my phone, A strange voice picked
up his phone. I really think he's in trouble with
Oh yeah, he would have the whole FEDS after her.
Everybody would be looking for that person after that. It
is not a bill collector. All right, Well, thank you
for that. Don't get a day asking ye eight D
(06:06):
five five one oh five one. If a new relationship
advice to any type of advice, call ye. Now is
the breakfast club. Good morning,
