I'm complimenting the song, just.

Speaker 4 (02:52):
Yeah, I'm just bopping along to the beat of my shoulders,
but cheeks her next baby.

It's my new faith love.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
How are you man? I'm going to have a question,
then answered.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
All right, you're following a car.

Speaker 5 (03:31):
They're going twelve thirteen miles an hour under the speed limit.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
Here's right behind me, Like, why are you this? Why
is this car going so slow?

Speaker 2 (03:39):
It happens every day.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Do you honk at them?

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Honk? No?

Speaker 3 (03:44):
What do you do?

Speaker 5 (03:45):
You can't got double yellow line, I can't pass them.
I'm just stuck following this car that's going too damn slow,
which I believe is a traffic violation in itself.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
You pull on the.

Speaker 4 (03:56):
Song dumb by Noga Eras and just PLoP along. Baby,
Oh you're worries just blowed out the window.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
No, I have. I have learned that there are two
things that I say in the car, and I've said
them more here in Columbus than I have driving anywhere
else I've lived in the country. And those two things are.

Speaker 6 (04:21):
Cold right or.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
But they can't hear you.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
No, they can't. Hogging isn't gonna change anything. I will
zoom around them. Even on a double yellow line if
there's no traffic coming, I will take that chance. Yeah,
there's nothing. There's nothing that drives me more mad than that.
It's like driving the speed limit the left hand lane,
which happens all the time as well here too.

Speaker 5 (04:51):
I was going home yesterday on Old Dublin Road, as
you do every day, and they're going thirty two miles
an hour and it's a forty five hours.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
I'm like, what is wrong?

Speaker 2 (04:59):
Actually, had that happen on Roberts Road yesterday my way
home and in the and that's a two lane road
and on the left hand side of Roberts the person
was going, Yeah, like thirty six or whatever, thirty seven.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
I believe you can get pulled over for that.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Yeah, no, you can get You can get pulled over
for doing too slow for sure.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
Going on.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
Yeah, it's it is probably the one thing that drives
me more nuts than anything else.

Speaker 5 (05:23):
But I sitting in a drive, I'm going, should I
I holk at this person that they realize they're going
to slow?

Speaker 4 (05:28):
You do what you should?

Speaker 6 (05:29):
Sing?

Speaker 4 (05:29):
When you think that you got what you think that
you got, give it up because you're so dumb dumb.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
The song is called dumb by who again?

Speaker 4 (05:39):
Noga eras and O G A eras, E R e Z.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
That's what does We just got a couple of questions
asking about that's so there you go. Well, let's get
going on a Wednesday. We have got tickets for Adam
Sandler to give away. I also want to talk about
some food news coming up here. In about forty five minutes,
we're going to get to Apparently people aren't learning from

(06:03):
Cracker Barrel because we've got another company that's jumping on
the rebranding bandwagon, and I don't know how well it's
gonna go for them. All right, Now, let's go with
Blitze Morning Trivia Thick all.

Speaker 5 (06:15):
Right, giving away twenty five bucks of waterbeds and stuff
if you're the first one to text in the correct answer.
Netflix has announced that they are going to turn a
classic board game into a reality competition series. So what
classic board game is Netflix turning into a reality competition series?

Speaker 3 (06:32):
Tell us the game at eight.

Speaker 5 (06:35):
First person to text it in gets the gift cards.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
Thank you. I took everything I had to keep in
the tell I thought you were going to fall down,
maybe lightheaded. That's a good stretch. Let's get that answer
for Blitz Morning Trivia. All right.

Speaker 5 (06:57):
The question was Netflix has announced plans to turn a
classic board game into a reality competition show, and that
board game is Clue. Who Colonel Mustard with the candlestick
in the Library?

Speaker 2 (07:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (07:12):
I when the last time you played Clue Country?

Speaker 4 (07:16):
I don't know, it's been a couple of decades.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
Yeah right, Yeah, but it lends itself to a TV
show for sure. Yeah, I mean you know, it could
be could be an escape room style game show.

Speaker 5 (07:27):
Well, it says red herrings will complicate the mystery solving
process for participant. The board game has previous screen adaptations,
and it says like so many families and friends over
the years were gathered around the table trying to figure
out who did it, making Clue a source of nostalgia
that everyone shares. But you'll the contestental face physical and

(07:49):
mental mental challenges to earn clues. While they feature I
conny characters like mastered Professor Flumb in the format, Professor
Plum rather.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Was like if you go to a murder mystery dinner, Yeah,
and we got the characters walking around. I bet there's
many parts of that in there.

Speaker 4 (08:05):
I have never done that before. Have you a murder mystery?

Speaker 3 (08:09):
We used to there's there was one up on the
North End.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
I don't know if it's still there or not.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
I've done. I've done two of them, been.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
In the audience or have been in the cast both.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
I've gone to two, and I've participated acted in one.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
How about that?

Speaker 2 (08:27):
Yeah, solved one of the murders, did not solve the
other murder.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
We had a guy on the air here for years, Viper, who.

Speaker 5 (08:35):
Acted in the one on the North End all the time.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
I don't think it's there anymore.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
I don't haven't heard about it for so long.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
I haven't heard of a murder mystery dinner in a while.
I don't know if they've kind.

Speaker 4 (08:43):
Of here's the thing, I just kind of want to
eat dinner, like I don't want a job.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
Well, then you would go there.

Speaker 4 (08:51):
Right, That's so that doesn't appeal to me. But I
guess the theater aspect of it. If I was, you're
going to the show.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yeah, because I mean, you know.

Speaker 4 (08:59):
It's it's Dinner's just a side quest.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Well, it's as if you were to go see something downtown,
you go to dinner first and you go see the show,
you just happen to be doing everything in the same place.
Although the dinner, usually the dinner is the beginning of
everything because a lot of the actors will move from
table to table. Because that's kind of the setup. You
kind of hear some of the story. They tell you

(09:24):
a few things that you need to pay attention to
during dinner.

Speaker 4 (09:27):
I don't like people involving food and all this. I
don't like people eating at a movie theater. I hate that.
Like me, they come and deliver whatever, hamburger and whatever.
I'm like, Oh, Michael, could you not eat before you
came to the movie?

Speaker 2 (09:40):
Right? Yeah? Now that you can actually order the food
to your seat, they got the QR code, they got
the food tray that comes out of the side of
the So you would go to one of those ruined
views where it's an actual restaurant that shows movies. They do.

Speaker 4 (09:54):
So you hated Flickers, No because Flickers? Oh no, I'm
thinking of Studio thirty five. Uh No, I didn't hate Flickers.
I just don't prefer to combine my meal time with
an event, like I need people getting up and down
when I'm at a ballpark watching a baseball game, sit
down and watch the game.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Okay, wait, somewhere people should go get food the.

Speaker 4 (10:20):
Game before the game maybe and sit down and quit
blocking my view because you have to get up and
get another snow cone.

Speaker 6 (10:29):
I know.

Speaker 4 (10:29):
I'm so strict, you guys. I'm really not that fun
to be with a lot of rules.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
Every party has got a pooper. It's me.

Speaker 3 (10:41):
Yeah, I have a compartment compartmentalizing.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
Yeahs while we're watching a game.

Speaker 4 (10:48):
If I get a whip of that fake cheese.

Speaker 3 (10:51):
Wow, you're tough.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
I am. I am a tough audience.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
I can see why you are at home on your
out Jimmy Dan seven o'clock. You're like you are the
epitome of just like people in there. I can't take it.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
Here's the only acceptable combining of food with activity, and
that is that a fair or like cedar point or whatever.
Now you walk around, you're enjoying enjoy that food. All right?
Did you puke on me during a ride? It's gloves as.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
The last time you got on a ride. That's what
I want to know.

Speaker 4 (11:25):
It's been a while. Last time you played maybe six years.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
Last time you.

Speaker 5 (11:29):
Played, right hey, by the way, Chuck Bolt from Joey
Coffrey was first one to text in and got twenty
five bucks.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Rengratulations, Schuck. I had other things to talk about, but
I think we will just move on from uh Kelly's irritability.

Speaker 6 (11:44):
Right now not so breaking news. The news already broke.
We're trying to put it back together.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
Our first story takes is over to Chesterfield, Missouri, where
in East Saint Louis man is facing multiple charges after
he robbed a Dave's Hot Chicken in Chesterfield over the weekend.
According to the police report, Lussain Whitley walked into the
restaurant around midnights around Saturday, October fourth, with a pistol
and a ski mask. He walked in the back and

(12:13):
entered the manager's office and tried to take the bank
bag containing the cash from the manager. Apparently there was
a bit of a tussle, but the man did get
away with the bag. However, they were able to catch
Whitley not long after because in the security video, as

(12:34):
he's leaving with the bank bag, his face covered by
a ski mask, there was one identifying piece of clothing.
That's because this gentleman was wearing his pants a little
too low and you could see the band of his underwear,
which were True Religion Boxers, and when police caught up with.

Speaker 4 (12:53):
Him, pull down your pants, son, Well.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
No, his pants were already down and you could see
the True Religion Boxers, the exact same ones that were
seen in the video of the restaurant during the robbery.

Speaker 3 (13:06):
This is a clothing brand, True Religion. Yeah, I've never
heard of it.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
A True Religion. Yeah, they have their own store, you
go to the mall. Yeah, a lot. I mean they're
pretty popular brand. Lots of people wear them. Yeah. So
he will now be charged with first of v robbery,
armed criminal action, receiving stolen property for a degree assault
and uh yeah, he's still in custody and we'll probably
be spending a little time behind bars. Our second story

(13:31):
takes us over to France. I was trying to think
of a fancy way to say France, Yes, where a
French TikToker is now going to be spending some time
behind bars after trying to jump on a ticktok prank

(13:54):
trend which he had seen done by other people in
other countries. And let me preface this with if this
man would try and do this here, he would have
got his ass kicked, like if this happened to me,
I am throwing hands immediately, he tried to say he

(14:18):
does not, although that would be equally annoying. Amine Mohito
is his name, and he became a viral sensation by
posting social media eclips where he was spoofing or joking
about injecting bystanders with a syringe. He would walk up

(14:40):
behind people and like poke them in the arm even
though the cap was still on the syringe and pretend
like he pushed the button and then hold the syringe
up and be like, oh, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (14:52):
You're a criminal.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
Yes, he is being accused of violence of the weapon.
Not resolved in work and capacity. However, there have been
now two people who have actually had to go to
therapy because of this. Not knowing what you're.

Speaker 3 (15:12):
Injected with terrifying.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
Yes, people losing work, sleep, and other things over the
mental anguish they have been traumatized with because of this.

Speaker 4 (15:23):
Why can't you just do the fart prank where you're
walking down a public street and you have like a you.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
Squeeze the thing. Yeah, he says, I had the very
bad idea of performing these tricks by mimicking what I
had seen on the internet in Spain and in Poultrugal
or Portugal. He says, I didn't think it could hurt people.
That was my mistake. I didn't think of others. I
thought of myself. So yes, he is accepting, you know,

(15:48):
the responsibility for what he did. But come on, yeah,
any the neverclips. I'm telling you, the only way this
would be acceptable if someone walked behind me and poked
me with a syringe, is about fifteen minutes later, I
need to hear Dennis quaid voice in my head while

(16:12):
dancing to this song. Does anybody get that movie reference?

Speaker 4 (16:22):
I don't know what.

Speaker 2 (16:26):
Do you get the movie reference? No?

Speaker 3 (16:28):
Man, if you tell me, I'm just maybe not. It's
not clicking.

Speaker 4 (16:32):
Martin Short, I don't know it.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
No, No, what's the movie Martin Short gets? He's walking
through Martin Short, just this Martin Short type guy, right,
and he's walking through the mall and he gets stuck
in the butt with a syringe and next thing you know,
he hears Dennis Quaid's voice in his head. Because it was
a science experiment, the movie Innerspace.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
I've never seen it.

Speaker 2 (16:58):
Oh you gotta see Innerspace. I never saw the Dennis
Quaid thinks he's getting injected into a rabbit, as like
I said, because they're they're they're learning how to shrink people.
And it was gonna be like this medical thing and
he was gonna get injected to a rabbit. But then
there's like this hijack for the technology and he accidentally
gets injected into Martin Short. So Martin Short is living
with Dennis Quaid inside of him. Yeah, Dennis Quaid's inside

(17:22):
this little this little pod, you know, he's traveling around
Martin Short's body.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
Okay, it sounds like something original. Oh, it's a great movie.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Yeah, late eighties, early nineties. Yeah, Interspace. I can't believe
you haven't seen all right, everyone anyways, so this man
from France will be spending a little of time behind
jail because you can't go around fake injecting people and
scaring them like that completely unacceptable. Let you're not still
breaking news nine nine seven the Blitz. All right, let's

(17:55):
get into some food news on a Wednesday morning. You
would think that companies would learn after Cracker Barrel came
out and did what they did and saw what happened
and saw the uproar. Not everyone is down for change,
but apparently Long John Silvers doesn't care, because they have

(18:19):
just decided to rebrand and change their logo completely because
Long John Silvers will no longer be having a fish
in their logo. They now have a chicken on their logo.
Why Why Because apparently they want to highlight their non

(18:41):
seafood items on their menu. They're very excited to highlight
and say, look, we don't just have fish on our menu.
We actually have chicken fingers and stuff as well. So
they have removed that fish at the center of their
logo still says Long John Silvers, but now there's a
chicken and right in the center of the circle there

(19:01):
instead of a fish.

Speaker 4 (19:03):
It should just be a hush puppy. Because everything tastes
the same at Long John Silver's. Single thing tastes like
a hush puppy.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
I think that they use the same fry or for everything.

Speaker 4 (19:17):
It's like the hush puppy tastes like the fish tastes like, well,
well yeah uh.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
They say that they will not be getting rid of
their seafood items. I would hope not, but they do
have the chicken planks, which here's the thing. It's coated
in the same matter as the Alaskan pollog they use.
So I mean again, yes, you're really not getting the
meat inside is different, but it all tastes the same.

(19:48):
So just know if you're pulling up to a long
John Silvers and you're like, wait a minute, I really
wanted some fish sticks and hushpuppies, you can still get that,
but the logo it's going to have a chicken on it.
Just let me know. If you are into protein bars,
it is no surprise that most protein bars are not
good for you. They were pushed for a very long

(20:11):
time as the healthy thing to eat if you're going
hiking or working out, or do you want that extra
bit of protein, But as it turns out, most protein
bars are loaded with saturated fat, sugar and all that
kind of stuff. Well, one Canadian fitness influencer is trying
to jump on the protein bar bandwagon. However, he's doing

(20:34):
it to let you know how unhealthy most of these
protein bars are and trying to raise awareness when it
comes to processed foods and what we put in our body.
This is an actual commercial for an actual product that
you can buy. If you want to take a listen

(20:57):
to the commercial. Hey, you. Yeah, you on a slay
to day and feeling stop. You've heard of killer raps
and killer whales, Well now mean killer par created by fitness.

Speaker 3 (21:07):
Care Joe Wicks.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
I created these products. Higher protein, high a fiber, and
a higher risk of cancer.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
Side effects may include the diarrhea, stroked and an early death.

Speaker 3 (21:19):
He is legal, surprisingly, yes, healthy right.

Speaker 5 (21:23):
We aded to a pleasure to tell you that Joe
Wicks is on a mission to war in the world
about ultra process food.

Speaker 3 (21:27):
Kill er bar, kill le bar, reach the past.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
Wow, he's fully admitting and saying this protein bar could
give you cancer, could give you diarrhea, and could lead
to early death because it is filled with nothing but
processed items. But it's all legal and it's all legal
that that's that's what he's saying. I can legally sell.

Speaker 4 (21:53):
This and kill you and kill you playing the long game.

Speaker 2 (21:57):
Yep, it's called killer Yeah the bars called a killer
protein bar. Absolutely mind blowing. He's not wrong at all.
But you know, we've talked about it for a long time.
It's one of the big things nowadays is all the
processed food. But at the same time processed food. You

(22:20):
walk down the aisles is much cheaper than all the
raw food. It's a whole lot easier and less time
consuming to make. To throw something in the microwave or
something frozen you can throw in the air fryer when
you're busy during the day. Money or money or time consuming.
I mean, if you have to work more to make

(22:41):
more money to be able to afford to live, then
you need to find time somewhere. M Yeah, this is
a legal product. So if you really want to get
your your extra protein and you don't mind the highly
processed food that could give you cancer, diarrhea and kill
you early, feel free to order yourself a case killer
protein bars.

Speaker 6 (22:59):
Good luck, and now all right, listen the three things
you need to know before you go.

Speaker 4 (23:05):
For those of you like to buy your weed and
weed related products up in Michigan because it's cheaper while
they're Governor Gretchen Whitmer has just signed into law a
new twenty four percent tax on marijuana sales between producers
and dispensaries, and of course they'll be passing that price
increase onto you. The new tax is expected to generate

(23:26):
no joke, four hundred and twenty million dollars in new
revenue for twenty baby. Whitmer says that money will go
toward road improvements across the state, making it a lot
smoother for you to drive up there and get your weed.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
I guess I wonder if they if they engineered that backwards,
how can we.

Speaker 4 (23:41):
Get four hundred they had to they had.

Speaker 2 (23:44):
I'm sorry, four hundred and twenty million dollars worth of taxes?
How much time? Much do we have to increase the
tax by to make sure we end up for yes?

Speaker 4 (23:52):
Yeah, Well, just minutes after a medical helicopter crashed onto
a highway and Sacramento Monday evening, the fire department responded.
There was a pilot and nurse and a paramedic on board.
All three were still alive after the crash, but the
paramedic on board was trapped underneath the wreckage. So the

(24:13):
fire captain started yelling out for bystanders to help. Instantly,
fifteen people run over. He had them all work together
and at his command, they lifted the wrecked helicopter up,
and then a firefighter got underneath to cut the paramedic
seat belt and rescue her. They got her out and
then they were able to gently lower the aircraft back
to the ground. Fifteen people just there in the area

(24:36):
at the time. I mean, can you imagine some and
this fire chief yelling for your help, and he said,
nobody hesitated, not a soul. They all for shre want
to help.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
You know. A good and bad of the scenario being
in the times that were in guaranteed people stopped or
were ran over to see what was going on with
their phones out, and then when asked for help, jumped
into action, which I think most people would do.

Speaker 4 (25:06):
I would do it well as far as we Yeah,
I mean absolutely, like you're not even thinking, It's like, oh,
what do you need?

Speaker 2 (25:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (25:13):
All three victims are solicit in critical condition. I could
not find any updates from yesterday, so hopefully the all
three are hanging in there and going to recover well.
The Trashed Home from slip Knots Duality video they put
out in two thousand and four is about to go
on the auction block. This is pretty much slip Knot's
most famous video. The band invited a bunch of their

(25:34):
fans to be in the video and it mostly took
part inside a home in Des Moines, Iowa. And in
the beginning of the video you see this mob of
people running toward the home. They smashed their way inside
where the band is playing. So anyway, this home is
owned by a Slipknot fan who said, hey, yeah, I
am renovating this place. Anyway, come in and shoot your
video here. But the destruction was so much more than

(25:57):
this fan bargain for oh that he ended up demanding
that Slipknot pay for damages back then, and that included
the broken windows. The whole kitchen was trashed, the driveway,
the lawn, front doors, rugs, gutters, back door window, frons,
everything you can imagine, everything that was destroyed. He's like,
I need you to pay for this, So slip Knocks
record label label ended up giving a fifty grand, So

(26:20):
here you go, here's some money. But anyway, over the years,
this person has not managed to keep up with the mortgage,
and when they were one hundred and forty one grand
in the hole, the bank took over the house and
now it is being auctioned off next Tuesday. It's a
three bed, one and a half bath, seventeen hundred square

(26:41):
foot home in Des Moines, Iowa, valued at three hundred
and thirty six grand. If you're interested, it's legendary.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
Baby, get out out there.

Speaker 4 (26:50):
You're looking for a move those ye or three things.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
Moin isn't terrible. I don't know if i'd want to
move there. Good for like a weekend visit, Yeah, check
out a couple spots and you have a hell out,
but you know, doing it from home. There you go home.
Digital exhaustion it's a thing, you know, if you are

(27:14):
the type that is tired a lot, or maybe you
hit that lull in the middle of the afternoon. There
could be a vast variety of reasons why that is. However,
digital exhaustion could be one of them, because it you know,
if you think about it, like when you put gas

(27:36):
in your car, everything you do in your car takes
up a little bit of gas. No, running your radio
takes a little bit of gas. Turning on your air
conditioning takes a little bit of gas, moving moving your
your power seat takes a little bit of gas. Everything
is involved. So of course the gas is the energy

(27:58):
of your car. So when you think about your brain,
it kind of operates the same way. Everything you do
takes a little bit of brain power takes a little
bit of that energy. And so when you think about
all the things you do digitally, you can be digitally exhausted,

(28:20):
as if you know thereas in this person who is
right who wrote this article, says case in point. While
I was writing this article, I responded to about a
dozen emails some colleagues. I got a huge medical bill
that came through. I replied to a text about a
home repair, and I learned that my older daughter needs
to wear white to school next Monday, and my younger

(28:42):
one is supposed to wear the colors of the Fall.
And this is all going on while they're working. But
if you think about each of those instances separately, they
all take a little bit of brain power. So this
person is saying, look, no matter what you do when
you're in front of your comooter or in front of
your phone, it all takes brain power. Even like you

(29:05):
and I, Kelly, we both admit we're pretty TikTok addicted.
We spend our days doing some doom scrolling. But if
you look at a video, you might see something like
I'm watching the ed Geenes story Now a Monster on Netflix.
And so last night, as I was in an episode,
I went to my phone and I was googling something

(29:27):
to find out some more information about this particular.

Speaker 4 (29:29):
Instance, right, That all.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
Takes brain power. Or if you're on your phone and
you see an ad of something you like, then oh,
you might start thinking about that product or what you
can do with that product. Do you need that product?
That all takes brain power.

Speaker 4 (29:44):
I'm watching Davis reviews school lunches, right, uh huh kid.
I haven't eaten a school lunch in many moons, but
now all I think about are, oh, yeah, man, that
rectangle pizza looks amazing. Yesterday he had a meatball sub
and he said it it was an eight out of ten.
It was really good. Good for here, So you know
that does take brain power.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
It all takes brain power. If you switch an app,
Let's say you're scrolling through Facebook, you come across something
like an old acquaintance did, and you're like, oh, and
then that brings up a thought about something new and
that old acquaintance did. Next scroll is an ad you
have to maybe you click on the ad, you go
and check out that product because the product looks interesting
to you because it's been you know, direct marketed towards

(30:27):
you because we all know they're listening, and you get
the targeted ads. Now, basically breaking it down where if
you're feeling tired all the time, take a close look
at your digital exposure because you may not think about it,
but that's all using some brain power and all using
some energy that you have, and it could lead to

(30:48):
digital exhaustion.

Speaker 4 (30:50):
But what am I just supposed to sit on a
couch and like a dummy and do nothing?

Speaker 2 (30:55):
Well, I mean you're not wrong, because then what you're
gonna have a maybe TV on?

Speaker 4 (31:01):
You got to read a book or so you're doing something.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
You are doing something with your brain.

Speaker 4 (31:05):
It's how you spend energy.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
I think, Yeah, I think it's the point of the
article is that if you're reading a book, sure you're
using brain power, but you're just kind of locked into
that one story versus going and.

Speaker 4 (31:20):
It's not in a hundred different places exactly.

Speaker 2 (31:22):
You're not going here or going there and then switching
apps and then going over here or looking at the
email and then jumping back to tickto like that. Yeah,
So just something to consider if you're running a little
on a low battery. I want to your Wednesday. One
of my favorite things of doing a Wednesday is visit feshol,
which is a website where people jump on and anonymously

(31:44):
admit things that they've done. If you want to do so,
you got a little confession eighth ninety nine seven. No,
we'll keep you completely anonymous if you want to admit
to something like this person who admits, years ago, I
ran a scam right hide behind cars and a bar
parking lot and pretend that they knocked me over when
they were backing out. They'd often hand me cash and

(32:05):
not call nine to one. One is obviously they had
had a couple of drinks. One time, an old guy
reversed over me, breaking my ankle and ribs. He drove
away laughing. Never did that again.

Speaker 4 (32:15):
Do you remember it's always sunny? When they were trying
to get in free to the Eagles game or something,
and so they were out in the parking lot before
the I think it was a super Bowl or something,
I don't know in that episode, and they were like
trying to get hit by cars.

Speaker 2 (32:28):
I don't want to watch more of that show. The
episodes I've seen are hysterical. But is that on what,
like it's sixteenth episode or something. I definitely got easy, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This person admits my mother wants a kitten for company.
Told her she'd be better off with an older rescue
dog to help her stay mobile and maybe meet people

(32:48):
while out walking. It's all true, but the real reason
is I don't want to get stuck with the cat
when she croaks. Oh man, I would totally do the
same thing, one hundred percent to do the same thing
this person admitutes. I applied for a manager role at work.
Another manager raised a concern that I'm too immature, but

(33:09):
they gave me the job. Anyways, Yesterday I took the
team out for lunch and got a couple of rounds
of shots. Two had to go home early, one puked
on her keyboard, and another one cried to a customer, Well,
they were right, I'm too immature. Gotta be careful with
them shotting shots. Today I started taking I'm sorry, I

(33:30):
started taking a picture a day, Taking a picture. Okay,
try this again. I started taking a picture a day
when I turned thirty and twenty fifteen. Three thousand, six
hundred and fifty four pictures later, I loaded them all
up and made a time lapse video nearly two and
a half minutes of me getting fat, bald, and depressed.

(33:52):
Never deleted something so quickly. What a waste of time
and had forty.

Speaker 4 (33:59):
Have you seen those time lapse videos of somebody's full year,
Well there, yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
Didn't do a year, but I did one in twenty
twenty one during COVID when on January first, I shaved
my straight razor, my head and my face, which I
hadn't done in twenty years. I have, I always had
facial hair, but I took everything off. And my birthday

(34:28):
is eighty one days from the beginning of the year,
so I took a picture every single day, but I
didn't shave or anything. So I grew everything out for
eighty one days and then did it.

Speaker 4 (34:36):
That was cool to watch, was it?

Speaker 2 (34:40):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (34:40):
There's gotta be some mark change between the beginning and
the end, and.

Speaker 2 (34:43):
For sure, yeah, for sure. But at the very first
picture on January first, do you remember that the art
School commercial used to run all the time, and then
it was draw a cartoon turtle. I looked like the
cartoon turtle with no facial hair in a bald head.

Speaker 5 (34:58):
It was turtle.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
Yeah. And then on the eighty first day, the day
before my birthday, I looked like a hobo.

Speaker 3 (35:04):
I was gonna say, how much hair? Did I mean?
How long was your hair?

Speaker 2 (35:08):
It was quite long. I thought I showed you the picture.
I did not show you the picture. I don't remember it.
Oh yeah, it like you must have had like a
beard beard. Oh yeah, I mean it was. It was
definitely I don't know how to describe it. It wasn't
like below my neck or anything.

Speaker 3 (35:23):
Because you're like me. I mean we have scruff, right.

Speaker 2 (35:26):
Yeah, I keep mine. I keep mine very trimmed. But yeah,
it was. It was definitely out there. I'm in my
phone right now. Oh here, Uh, I can show you
kind of what it looked like. Yeah, this is this
is what it looked like after eighty one days.

Speaker 5 (35:42):
Oh my gosh, you look like a completely different recognize you.

Speaker 4 (35:50):
Oh yeah, you were you riding trains.

Speaker 2 (35:52):
Yeah, I had a stick with a bandana. Died to
the end of it, for sure.

Speaker 5 (35:56):
The person walked up to me right now, I would
have no idea who the hell it was.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
Well, this was actually the day I shaved, And what
I did was I shaved just the very top of
my head first, So I got the Jean Luke Picard
going right, this is what.

Speaker 4 (36:18):
You look like. You could have a Netflix documentary made
about you.

Speaker 2 (36:22):
Ryan Murphy's next monster series will be about for sure.

Speaker 4 (36:28):
Yeah, not good, says, Please post that on the facebook page.
All right, yeah, why not?

Speaker 2 (36:34):
I'll post the picture on the on the blitz Facebook
Paget's see what it looked like. Not good, I can
tell you that much, all right, on the festhold, I
ruined one of my wife's expensive designer shoes, hammering a
nail into the wall. I did a good job doing
it back together, though it did fall apart when her
friend was trying them on to borrow borrow them. My

(36:54):
wife now hasn't spoken to her friends in months. I
guess I'm off the hook. Oh my god, I never
told her, right, you've never told that, this person says,
I downsize to a smaller house. I found a mouse
at one day. He mainly caught it. He was cute,
so I ended up feeding it a little bit and
then setting him free. Now he pops up at least
once a day to politely ask for food, and he

(37:15):
trusted me enough to even stroke him a little bit.
I named him Jerry.

Speaker 4 (37:19):
Oh isn't that nice?

Speaker 2 (37:21):
Oh, no way, there's no way I'm doing that. Yeah,
there's no way I'm doing that. There is a snap
trap in your near future for sure. Finally, this person
admits the person before us in the airbnb we're currently
staying in didn't sign out of their streaming services on
the TV. All I can say is, Adrian, I'm sorry.

(37:42):
I was left loan and a bore, alone and bored.
I hope you notice your updated watch list before your
wife does. Should do that. You're looking for a little
at work entertainment today, go visit vessel. All right, we
haven't done this in a little bit blind top five.

(38:05):
This is how it works. We've got a category, and
we've got five items in that category. I'm gonna list
them off one by one. We will all have our
piece of paper labeled one through five, and as I
give them to you, you are going to filling your
top five. The only thing is you're not gonna know
what's next down the list. We're only going one at

(38:27):
a time, so you may get boned and put something
you don't really like closer to the top than you
really would, not knowing that something you hate is actually
on the way, and then you're just stuck with your
top five. So are you ready, Kelly?

Speaker 4 (38:40):
You got im ready to go?

Speaker 2 (38:41):
Faking? Number one? Through five. I am right here, all right.
Today's category for the blind Top five is kids characters. Okay,
now these aren't These aren't young aged characters. These are
characters you kind of grew up with, or we would

(39:02):
know as kid's characters. Okay, okay, you look confused.

Speaker 3 (39:08):
I'm a little I'm sure. As soon as you give
me the first one, I'll get it.

Speaker 2 (39:12):
Okay. Tinky Winky, All right, it's one of the uh.

Speaker 4 (39:22):
Yeah, weird weird things.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
What the hell are they called?

Speaker 4 (39:26):
Yeah, tinky Winky? You know the yellow like the Martian
looking type thing on the Kids Show?

Speaker 2 (39:34):
What the hell are they called? Why can't I should
have written down the name of what they're called?

Speaker 4 (39:38):
Okay, I'll tell you right, tell Tubby?

Speaker 2 (39:40):
Oh okay, Tinky Winky, the Tello Tubby? Where do you ring?

Speaker 4 (39:46):
You know the thing that was on TV that uh
they danced around.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
I tried to pick one that wasn't necessarily in our
age group. You did? Oh yeah, definitely? All right, here
we go. Number two on the list for the blind
Top five Kids Characters, Sweetish Chef.

Speaker 4 (40:07):
Okay, number or.

Speaker 2 (40:12):
I should say third on the list blind Top five
Kids Characters, Barbie, Number four on the list for kids
characters he Man. I really hope they don't screw up

(40:33):
that live action Masters of the Universe that's coming, because
boy did they screw up the first one with Dolphine.
It was terrible, so so bad, Like it wasn't even
besides besides being named he Man and Skeletor, it had
nothing to do with Masters of the Universe. What's all right?
The final kids character for blind top five dark Wing Duck. Right, Kelly,

(41:05):
I want to see where you fall since you let
out a big old son of a I.

Speaker 4 (41:09):
Had my number one spot open because I didn't feel
like any of the other ones were worthy of it.
I wish I would have put Barbie there, but dark
Wing Duck goes there. Number two, Barbie number three, Swedish Chef,
number four, he Man, number five, Tinky Winky. I just
would have put dark Wing Duck maybe at number three,
and bumped Barbie and Swedish Chef up.

Speaker 2 (41:29):
Okay, all right, that makes sense, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (41:31):
Yeah, yeah, But I was very happy with Tinky Winky
in the number five spot.

Speaker 2 (41:36):
I would say, I would venture to guess. I'm not.
I don't I haven't seen six lists, but I would
venture to guess Tinky Winky is going to be fifth
on all of our Yeah.

Speaker 5 (41:43):
Because I had never watched an episode of the Teletubbies
in my life, right, So.

Speaker 2 (41:47):
Yeah, he's fit. All right, I'll go to he Uh. Yeah,
I don't know it I have, I don't even know
what it is. Yeah, it's definitely it. Oh yeah, Tinky
Winky at number five for sure. For me, Number four
would be Barbie. I would say that's kind of a
gender thing. Number three for me would be he Man,

(42:10):
just slightly edging out only because Swedish Chef for me
takes number two. Mark work work one of my favorite things,
probably top five on the list of reasons I love

(42:32):
Nora was if you mentioned the Swedish Chef, she thinks
he says gurgy, gurgy, and that's become just an ongoing thing.
Anytime now she tries to cook gurgy, gurgy comes up. Yeah,
So Swedish Chef at number two. And then one of
my favorite cartoons of all time, Dark Wing Duck, is
at number one. Oh, I love to meet some Dark

(42:54):
Wing Duck for sure. Thick, what do you got?

Speaker 3 (42:58):
Tinky Winky and Barbie five and four?

Speaker 5 (43:00):
Barbie, Like you said, I'm a guy right, never played
for the Barbie in my life. Uh and number three,
I actually my list came out perfect for me.

Speaker 3 (43:07):
Dark Wing Duck third.

Speaker 5 (43:09):
I'm a fan, but I'm not putting dark Wing Duck
over Sweetish Chef.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
Okay, which I have?

Speaker 5 (43:14):
Second straight for he Man and number he Man number one,
hands down.

Speaker 2 (43:19):
What's your favorite Master's Universe character? Was it he Man? Yeah? Okay, ye,
not Man at Arms? No battle Cat he Man.

Speaker 3 (43:27):
I love battle Cat, but he Man, he was the
Master of the Universe.

Speaker 2 (43:31):
That's very true. All right, pretty good. I'm sorry you
got bones, Kelly. Oh that's fine.

Speaker 4 (43:37):
I mean I'll take darkly. What you could be worse.
I could be worse. I could have put he Man
in the number one spot.

Speaker 4 (51:00):
You are right to call it.

Speaker 2 (51:04):
Adam Sandy's versus a west Side story.

Speaker 3 (51:06):
And he's sitting there singing to Jack Nickols.

Speaker 2 (51:10):
Girls.

Speaker 3 (51:15):
All right, well that's fortitude, all right.

Speaker 5 (51:18):
Because.

Speaker 2 (51:22):
No matter what, why are you turning it down? Everybody
jam out the queen all the time. Come on now, Brandon, congratulations,

(51:42):
you've got tickets. But since we suck so bad, you
know what, nick, I'll give you tickets to Okay, you
are both gonna get a pair of tickets for Adam Sandley.
Make your plans and mark your calendars for next Wednesday.
You will both be at Nationwide Arena. Congratulations you hang
on one second now, all right? The three things you
need to know before you go.

Speaker 4 (52:03):
According to a new rule adopted by the Columbus City
School Board yesterday, the district is no longer responsible to
provide bussing to high school students. Transportation is officially optional
from night through twelfth graders. The district is trying to
close a fifty million dollar budget gap. They've been talking
about trying to work with CODA to offer high schoolers
free transportation on city buses, but that has not been
worked out. A Connecticut woman is charged with attempted murder

(52:26):
after police say she admitted to slipping Anna freeze into
her estranged husband's wine bottle. Thirty three year old Kristin
Hogan allegedly confessed to police that she poured the anafrees
into an open bottle of wine when her husband wasn't
at home, and then he drank the wine became severely
Illaa was hospitalized and then doctors figured out that he
was suffering from ethylene glycol poisoning, which is the the

(52:47):
rough ingredient there and Anna freeze investigators narrowed it down
to Kristen based on digital evidence, not the least of
which was a search on her phone about lethal doses
of Anna freeze.

Speaker 2 (52:57):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (53:00):
Police said, Hey, she said, I wasn't trying to kill him.
I just wanted to make him a little sick. He says.
She has been battling him for the couple's house and
full custody of their child.

Speaker 2 (53:11):
That ain't a way to handle that.

Speaker 4 (53:12):
It is not well. After rescheduling his Columbus date, well,
I guess twice Kevin Hart has canceled the show altogether.
He was supposed to perform at the Shot in May.
That gig was scrapped a day before showtime. He rescheduled
for September. Then that one was canceled and rescheduled for
next Saturday. Now the show's just completely canceled. No reason given.

(53:37):
But if you bought tickets, you'll receive a refund to
the original method of payment use for purchase. They say
you should see it back in your account within two
to three weeks. I wonder if the guy's not selling tickets,
because this isn't the only show he's canceled this year.

Speaker 2 (53:49):
He's caled That would be a little shocking. Totally possible,
but seems a little shocking. Yeah, I mean, unless there
are other business deals in the works, because he's got
quite the company that does a lot of stuff. I
don't know if I got a better offer to shoot
some multimillion dollar movie or something.

Speaker 4 (54:04):
Well, you got that ree odd money. So he might
be riding high now and doesn't need to make a
book possibility.

Speaker 2 (54:09):
Yeah, so I don't know.

Speaker 4 (54:10):
All right, those are your three things.

Speaker 2 (54:14):
If you have any airline travel in your near future,
maybe you're traveling for the holidays this year. Some to
keep in the back of your mind as you get
ready for takeoff or as you get ready for landing
and they're making their final announcements. Right after they make
their final announcements, the last thing that happens is they

(54:35):
turn the lights down, those big overhead lights and stuff.
Everything gets turned off.

Speaker 4 (54:40):
Kind of reminds me like I'm when a movie starting,
and you're like.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
All right, yeah, yeah, Although when the lights go down
at the movie theater, you get a little hyped up.
You're ready for the movie to start. You're getting ready,
you're getting hyped for what you're about to be in for.
You've been waiting for this movie to come out. Sometimes
for like a year, you've been watching trailers and reading things.

Speaker 4 (55:03):
We just went through thirty minutes of ads. Yes, get
to your movie.

Speaker 2 (55:07):
Yes. And when you're on a plane, you're ready for
your vacation to start. You're ready to go see who
you're going to see. It's exciting stuff. So when those
lights go down on takeoff, or those lights go down
when you're on your approach and you know you're getting close,
it's an exciting moment. But just no, it's really not

(55:27):
that exciting because the reason they dimmed the lights is
actually for your safety. And that is because most airline
accidents happen on takeoff or on landing, so they want
to make sure, especially if it's an overnight flight or
a flight at dawn or dusk and there's not a

(55:47):
lot of sunlight out there, they want to make sure
that your eyes are adjusted to a lower light in
case you need to make an emergency exit.

Speaker 5 (55:57):
No.

Speaker 2 (55:58):
Yeah, so your eyes have adjusted to a lower level light.
The exit signs the lights on the floor will be
brighter so you can make it out more quickly and
more safely.

Speaker 4 (56:11):
I didn't think I could be any more like nervous
about flying, but you've done.

Speaker 2 (56:15):
It, thank you.

Speaker 5 (56:15):
Yeah, that was I don't think anybody needed this information. No, no,
he had no reason they needed to tell us.

Speaker 2 (56:23):
Ignorance is bliss. You'd have gone on the rest of
your life.

Speaker 5 (56:27):
Because now every time those lights dim, I'm like, oh God,
oh god, this is the time.

Speaker 2 (56:34):
You gotta blink a little bit, give them a little rub,
make sure they're fully adjusted to the available light you have.

Speaker 5 (56:40):
I'm already looking at the exit door. I'm like, I'm
going to jump going.

Speaker 4 (56:44):
To his neighbor. Hey, you know this isn't just mood lighting,
don't you.

Speaker 2 (56:47):
Right, Hey, yeah, they're turning the lights down in case
we're getting ready to.

Speaker 3 (56:53):
Die, just so you know, now they didn't need to
tell us. Not saying nobody needed this info.

Speaker 2 (56:58):
I'm saying that the plane is going to crash, but
just so you know, it's most likely to crash at
this exact moment, when we're taking off or when we're
getting ready to land, and they just want to make
sure you can see the exit sign properly. So because
because I'm not going to help you out, so make
sure your eyes are adjusted.

Speaker 4 (57:15):
What needs you to be able to see.

Speaker 3 (57:17):
I mean, what what what?

Speaker 5 (57:18):
How does this benefit anybody giving us this information?

Speaker 2 (57:21):
No way s you know, it probably doesn't. It definitely doesn't.

Speaker 4 (57:26):
I was I think you could be thankful to say, hey,
you're helping me out in the event of an emergency.

Speaker 2 (57:31):
That is true.

Speaker 3 (57:32):
This is like telling people what's in a hot dog.
You know.

Speaker 2 (57:38):
It kind of goes along the lines of the beginning
of the movie Fight Club, where it's like, you know,
it's just pure oxygen because it gets you high as
you're getting ready to crash, as you're exhaling and inhaling
very quickly hyperventilating. Basically, it's just the extra oxygen will
get you high. So here a little more your fear
what you fork before the plane hits the ground. So

(57:59):
just just letting, you know, put it out there. We
want to keep you fully informed on this show. So
I feel like I'm doing my job.

Speaker 6 (58:06):
Not so breaking news. The news already broke. We're trying
to put it back together.

Speaker 2 (58:13):
Oh. You know, there's a lot of planning that goes
into events, especially if it's like a city wide event.
You know, think like red, white and boom. Yeah, talking
fireworks or fair exactly takes a lot of things, especially
now when you're trying to get events that will draw

(58:35):
either more people or new people, because you want to
constantly evolve, you want to constantly make things better. And
one of the things they're doing now is drone shows
have become a big thing, and in fact, just this
past year at Red White and Boom they had this
big drone show that they do to music because now
through technology they can get hundreds or thousands of drones

(58:58):
all to operate at the same time, and they can
pre program them to make designs and moving things in
the sky, it changes colors, they can do all kinds
of stuff. Well, China, as usual is kind of one
step ahead of the rest of the world when it

(59:18):
comes to things, especially when it comes to technology. And
so they were having themselves a festival which included a
drone show to entertain the masses there as they all
stood around looking up into the sky. But because they
are a step ahead of everyone else, they have found
out not only can their drones all fought, fly and

(59:39):
sink and change colors and do things, but they can
now rain down fireballs. As part of the show, they
had like a fire breathing a couple fire breathing dragons
that were cool, bitting fire and stuff.

Speaker 4 (59:54):
It feels like something could go sideways.

Speaker 2 (59:56):
Well, this is the not cele breaking news, and that's
exactly what happened. Whatever whatever they were doing, because you
know with firework shows, they have it planned out where
things burn up before they hit the ground. At least
that's the plan. Every so often there's a misstep, and
we have had things on fire because of this. But
these are actual fireballs falling from the sky. And yes,

(01:00:19):
someone didn't plan appropriately. As you see thousands of people scattering.
You saw there was a forest fire that was started,
its falling on top of buildings and houses. These fireballs
were not going out in time, so they had themselves
a bit of a melee. And the event organizers are
now apologizing saying we didn't do it quite right. Huh,

(01:00:43):
things didn't go exactly as.

Speaker 4 (01:00:45):
Planned forgot to carry the one.

Speaker 2 (01:00:47):
You're right exactly exactly.

Speaker 5 (01:00:49):
Initially I thought I misunderstood until you started getting into it.
I thought that drones were creating the fireball, like the
drones were made, but we were talking about real fire.

Speaker 2 (01:00:58):
Yeah, they had whatever what never was attached to the
drone is spitting out fireballs. Make the drones be the fireball,
except the drones on fire. No, just have them look
like a fireball. Look like a fireball.

Speaker 3 (01:01:10):
Drones are like fire, right, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:01:12):
Like you get a bunch of them in a group
and they're all red, orange and yellow.

Speaker 4 (01:01:18):
In China there with the drones not.

Speaker 2 (01:01:22):
But yeah, so there was some fire damage. Thankfully it
didn't get too out of hand. They were ready to
put the fires out. But yeah, they're going to They're
going to rework that before they do anything. Story number
two comes out of Texas, where nearly twenty five thousand
Texans lost internet access back onto September twenty sixth when
a stray bullet struck a spectrum fiber optic cable in

(01:01:46):
the Dallas area. The shot severage service for customers across Dallas, Irvine, Plano, Arlington, Austin,
and San Antonio.

Speaker 4 (01:01:54):
Oh my gosh, that's a that's a.

Speaker 2 (01:01:56):
Wide range for one fiber optic cable. I mean you
think of I guess being the epicenter or whatever of
where this cable is that runs throughout the state, and
so yes, Unfortunately, most of these people lost Internet access
because the bullet struck the cable. Unlike most fiber out

(01:02:17):
to cables that run underground, this line was actually mounted
on telephone poles, making it vulnerable to damage, and the
shooter has not been identified yet. Again we're talking just
a stray bullet now. This marks Spectrum's third firearm related
outage in twelve months. In fact, in twenty twenty two,

(01:02:37):
gunfire in Oakland, California, knocked out thirty thousand Comcast customers offline,
and it was during a RAMS forty nine ers game.
People were not happy. You're sitting there watching your team
go at it playing Arrival in the same vicinity, and
you're like, wait a minute, what's going on? And not

(01:02:58):
only that, but if you remamber, a New Year's Eve
incident saw multiple bullets, straight bullets hit a fiber line
right here in Columbus, disrupting internet and traffic cameras.

Speaker 3 (01:03:08):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (01:03:09):
And so again it's not the only time it happened.

Speaker 3 (01:03:13):
That's crazy, how ran Because.

Speaker 2 (01:03:15):
I don't think I'm not a linesman. I don't know
anything about any of this, but fiber ck to cable
isn't that huge, is it?

Speaker 4 (01:03:24):
I don't know. I kind of feel like a Dallas.
They're kind of like all like yoseementy Sam with two guns,
one in each hand, you know, fire a off, just
like when it happens here and well Oakland, I guess,
I guess we're all just committing crimes.

Speaker 2 (01:03:36):
There firing off guns. I mean, the instance here in
Columbus was a New Year's Eve incident. So you're you're
assuming that they were out there fighting, shooting off guns
and celebration in New Year's I'd have to assume that's why.

Speaker 4 (01:03:51):
Take my cable TV. Whatever you do.

Speaker 2 (01:03:53):
Oh, I'd be so aggravating, so aggravating. Yeah, don't go
just randomly firing bullets anywhere. You could hit a fiber
optic cable or other people. I mean there are other
people that could get hit, but the fiber optic cable.
I mean, come on, do that. You're not so breaking
news nine, Night seven of the Blitz. All right, here
we go, time for Blitz therapy, brought to you by

(01:04:18):
try State Men's Health. And she'd go check him up.
They do a good job there. Earlier this morning, about
a half hour ago, we were talking about airplanes and
dimming lights and why they do so. If you have
any travel on your way, maybe you're traveling with your
significant other for the for the holidays or something. I've
gotten email here and I want to see how you

(01:04:38):
would handle this situation. Okay, This email from Becky says,
me and my boyfriend were in Seattle for Thunderdome and
he wanted to save money on the ride to the
airport and booked us a lift to a random hotel
so we could take their shuttle to the a hotel

(01:05:00):
for free stay at about thirty bucks because it was closer,
and a lot of times they'll up charge for going
to the airport. That's actually not a terrible idea. I
may look into that, right however, they say, we get
to the airport, we're cutting it really close. I'm in
a separate security line because when they got when they
went through the TSA, they kind of split them up,

(01:05:21):
and it's cleared about three or four minutes before mine did.
He stated that he was going to go to the
gate to try and make sure we're both on the
plane because I was a little bit behind, and we
were cutting it really really close to the boarding time.
So I get to the gate four minutes after him,
and the door is closed and he's nowhere to be found.

(01:05:43):
At that moment I realized I'm stuck in Seattle boy myself,
and that he made it on the plane without me.
I checked my text and from a minute prior, he
sent me a message that said run. I had already
been running, but I missed the flight by one minute.
The flight left at four or five. The next one
wasn't until eleven oh five, I meaning I'm not gonna

(01:06:03):
get back until like six forty five in the morning.
Based on my personality, I wouldn't have gotten on the
plane unless I was sure he'd be on there with me.
Now I'm stuck in Seattle for six hours by myself.
Feels like he was being a bit selfish. Well, maybe
I'm looking at it the wrong way. He called while
the plane was pulling off to give me his side
of the story, and said the gate agent told him

(01:06:24):
I would be able to make it if I got
there in the next two minutes, but I was a
minute behind. My feelings are hurt, and I'm genuinely questioning
if I want to stay with him after this. Becky,
Now I can't imagine getting on the plane without Nora.

(01:06:44):
I can see going ahead to the gate if she
was a few minutes behind. Or maybe she got you know,
maybe she got the random pat down where she's being
held up and we know we're cutting it close. I'd
tell her to run ahead, see if maybe they'll hold it. Look,
she's just dug a secret to give us two seconds.
Just please, we're not talking fifteen minutes, thirty minutes here,

(01:07:08):
We're talking two minutes. If you can just not close
that door, because once they close that door, it ain't opening.
That's all there is to it. But getting on the
actual plane, I don't know about that, but the gate
agent didensation'll have time, so on, I'm are you trusting
the gate agent, Kelly? Are you getting on the plane?

Speaker 4 (01:07:26):
I mean, I guess if I were in this situation,
is this in line with his character to be selfish
and to leave you behind and all that? Because if
it's not, this to me just seems like a game
day decision, a game minute decision that went sideways. Like
he was just like, I'm getting on, I'm gonna make

(01:07:47):
sure I'm on seats open. She said, it's cool, she's
right behind me. It's all gonna work out. Like that's
just an instantaneous decision that went sideways on him. If
this isn't something that reflects his usual character. I'd say
you got to give the guy a pass. Yeah, okay,
this is just another example of how you've been left
in the dust while he goes off without you. Then

(01:08:09):
maybe you got some things to talk about.

Speaker 2 (01:08:11):
Okay, Vic are you are you getting on the plane
without my wife? Huh?

Speaker 3 (01:08:17):
Not a chance, Not a chance in hell.

Speaker 2 (01:08:21):
You are not trusting the agent.

Speaker 5 (01:08:23):
The problem is, as soon as you walk down that corridor,
they closed that door. You don't know where that gate
agent went. If there's another gate agent comes up, you know,
when your girl comes up, eventually, she may be talking
to somebody who wasn't even standing there when you got on.

Speaker 2 (01:08:38):
She didn't know.

Speaker 5 (01:08:39):
I feel like if I stand there and I don't
go and they go, well, we're gonna have to close
the gate. I'm like, we were in line together, we
came in together. She's gonna be here any second, and
if they close it, they close it, then I'll take
the next flight with her.

Speaker 2 (01:08:51):
Yeah, I'm kind of standing. I'm standing at the area
where they scan the ticket right there before you get
on the walkway, right, I'm gonna be standing right there
by the door, look at looking down the hallway, looking
back at the plane, looking down the hallway, looking back
at the plane. Yeah, but getting on the plane, I
don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:09:08):
No, no, I'm not.

Speaker 4 (01:09:09):
I can't imagine my husband leaving me at tsall that too.

Speaker 5 (01:09:13):
Yeah, yeah, well I get that, because you want to
keep them from closing.

Speaker 4 (01:09:17):
Closing the door, and then you can do about that.

Speaker 5 (01:09:20):
I know, but I feel like if I'm there, I
got a better chance at it.

Speaker 2 (01:09:23):
Yeah, I don't know if I'm leaving TSA now to
end the email with now, I'm questioning whether or not
I want to be with this guy. I'm kind of
in the same boat as you, Kelly, if it's a
one time thing that has gone sideways.

Speaker 4 (01:09:40):
See, let me tell you something about last minute, game
time decision making. For me, I get riddled with anxiety.
I don't know what to do. I'm kind of paralyzed.
So I'm like, should I just get on the plane
and then like, what do I do? I may make
a bad decision like that. It doesn't mean anything other
than the fact that I just made a dumb decison. Period.

(01:10:01):
It doesn't reflect my character that this might. You know,
my husband has known forever, Yes, you know me, you
know I'm not a selfish person. I made a stupid
choice because I got nervous H one.

Speaker 2 (01:10:15):
Ninety nine to seven. Oh have you ever been in
this situation before where your significant other left you behind
and you're like, yo, what was that all about? Did
one of you catch a plane and one of you didn't?
I would love to know if you've been in this
situation before. Doug had a great idea. She needs to
send him a text message and tell him why they

(01:10:36):
dimmed the lights.

Speaker 3 (01:10:38):
And nobody needs to know that.

Speaker 2 (01:10:40):
Yeah, so you know they dimmed the lights because in
case the plane crashes, you have to have your eyes adjusted.

Speaker 5 (01:10:46):
That's crazy, man, Nick said. He the guy deserves a break.
He's probably just a little dumb believing the gate person.
I'm not getting on anything without my life.

Speaker 3 (01:10:55):
Yeah, yeah, maybe he shouldn't have believed her.

Speaker 2 (01:10:57):
Amy flat out says get rid of them as Amy's
having none of that whatsoever.

Speaker 5 (01:11:04):
I just I mean, you have to you have to
know there is a chance she doesn't get on.

Speaker 2 (01:11:10):
With you a good one. Yeah, you're cutting it. That
goes because here's the other thing. I've also been at
airports where they closed the door early, like if they
finished porting and they've made their announcements, they will shut
that door early because if they could push a couple
of minutes earlier, that's a better record for them for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:11:28):
Eight I've mentioned before.

Speaker 5 (01:11:31):
You know when we went to Aruba, we had our
plane had to be de iced here in Columbus before
we flew to Atlanta, so we were half an hour late,
and it we were right up against it.

Speaker 3 (01:11:40):
We ran like hell, we like O. J. Simpson through
the airport.

Speaker 2 (01:11:44):
MD their exactly what they're stabbing people. I gotta make
my plane. Stab stab get out of the way, but
stab stab damn.

Speaker 3 (01:12:01):
When we got to the gate, it was closed. We
said they had a de ice.

Speaker 2 (01:12:04):
We were late.

Speaker 3 (01:12:05):
Halfn't our late taken off?

Speaker 2 (01:12:08):
What's the worst example you could have used?

Speaker 5 (01:12:13):
Are the berry said, oh J made the commercials running
through the airport for her rent a car.

Speaker 2 (01:12:20):
OHJ running through the airport.

Speaker 3 (01:12:21):
They were old commercials, That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 5 (01:12:23):
But anyway, we told her what we told the gate
agent was like they de ice start playing.

Speaker 3 (01:12:27):
The plane was late. We ran as soon as we
got off.

Speaker 5 (01:12:30):
She picked up the phone and called somebody and they
opened the gate and let us.

Speaker 2 (01:12:34):
Did they really Wow, you got lucky there, I know,
because that never happens.

Speaker 4 (01:12:37):
All right, how many people did you get?

Speaker 2 (01:12:44):
Eight eight two one? Back to the stabbings eight ninety
nine seven? Oh, how are you handling this situation? Ninety
nine seven of the blips? Well, it's wrning therapy, brought
to you by Tri State Men's Health. Becky emailed in
about a trip she was on with her man and
they were cutting it real close. Actually got separated at

(01:13:07):
TSA putting the different security lines, and he made it
through first, so he said, I'm going to go ahead
to the gate to make sure they don't close the
door on us. Well, she got there, the door was closed,
no one around, including her man who was on the plane,
But through a quick phone call before they took off,
found out the gate agent promised the door would still
be open and she would have time to get on

(01:13:28):
the plane. But that's not how it worked out. Now
she's a bit mad, understandably so. But Kelly's explanation, you know,
kind of just a bad choice.

Speaker 4 (01:13:39):
Is it in line with this character? Is he normally
like doing these things to you or is this just
like your surprise? It's not in line with this character,
and he made a bad last minute call, right, because
I can guarantee you my husband be throwing a fit
if he ended up getting on the plane and they
didn't let me on.

Speaker 2 (01:13:59):
You know, he made a vow a point if that happens,
throwing a huge fit, I mean an absolute fit. Yes,
they're gonna stop and you're gonna get kicked off the plane. Yeah,
and then you can be back with your wife.

Speaker 3 (01:14:13):
Or you're gonna get arrested.

Speaker 2 (01:14:14):
Now, you could get arrested for it. You could get
put on the no fly list. So you're not going
anywhere ever again without driving.

Speaker 4 (01:14:21):
But you're not in the doghousehouse, and that's a pretty
big deal.

Speaker 2 (01:14:25):
Yes, that's a pretty big deal now, I thinking I agreed,
But the run ahead is a is a possibility. But
actually stepping foot on the plane not happen.

Speaker 5 (01:14:37):
Calise said, damn right, I'm taking that flight. Looks like
I'm getting the whole arm rest with my legs spread wide.

Speaker 2 (01:14:41):
Sorry, honey, Okay, that Matt did say maybe he got
on the plane early on purpose because she's just not
that pleasant. I mean, I guess you could turn it
back on, Becky.

Speaker 5 (01:14:54):
I understand they're not married. It's boyfriend girlfriend, right, yes, yeah,
but I just feel like you are not gonna be
that upset if the relationship ends, or you would not
do that that I mean seriously, Yeah, I mean, I'm.

Speaker 4 (01:15:11):
Really trying to think airports are a stressful place, especially
if you're running late. You're so stressed, like you are
just trying to do it right and get on a
plane and get home.

Speaker 2 (01:15:21):
That's all you want.

Speaker 3 (01:15:22):
Yeah, but I'm not going home without my wife.

Speaker 4 (01:15:24):
He didn't think he was going home.

Speaker 2 (01:15:27):
If you're told by the gate agent, I think I
think that would be my biggest argument if they shut
the door. And then when it comes down to like
throwing the fit, right, like the agent told me, this
is what's gonna happen. But you're right, they do, they
don't and they're gonna, they're gonna. You know, they've got
they're they're not worried about one person when they know

(01:15:49):
they're only allowed so many delayed takes off before you
start getting fined or a lot of these new rules
now where they have to pay the customer, you get
a certain amount of ref and if you're on the
tarmac too long or whatever the case may be. You
know that whole airport system is quite involved, because you know,

(01:16:09):
we're talking butterfly effect. You take off a couple minutes
late from here, you have to then land late. If
another plane is at your gate because you didn't get
there in time, then you've got people can missing connecting flights,
or that one plane isn't getting to where it needs
to be on the next stop, affecting one hundreds of
people on that flight. So it's it's very much. You know,
a butterfly flaps its wings in Japan and causes a

(01:16:32):
hurricane in Florida sort of situation. But yeah, coming down
to it, I'm not gonna take the chance of the
words I'm gonna hear or the attitude I'm gonna get
if I leave Nora standing out.

Speaker 5 (01:16:45):
Because it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what the gate
agent told you. It doesn't matter anything when you're on
that plane and she's not none of that.

Speaker 3 (01:16:53):
Yeah, it's gonna matter, you know.

Speaker 4 (01:16:54):
Henry brought up a good point. He said, the fact
that she prefaced the whole story with his money saving Shenanigan,
with the going to the hotel to get the free
d is he didn't want to pay like the fee
that it would cost to switch flights. If you're like,
only has to pay.

Speaker 2 (01:17:10):
For one ticket now instead of two tickets, that's a
valid valid point. Now, there's three things you need to
know before you go.

Speaker 4 (01:17:20):
All right, we're gonna talk a little local neighborhood drama.
There's been a B colony in a sycamore tree in
German Village for decades. Big B colony. It's at South
sixth and Lear Streets at a condo complex and it's
called the people. The locals called the B tree just
a big B colony in there. I mean it used
to be, uh that is until someone got stung and

(01:17:42):
reported it to the city, and the city demanded that
the condo complex get rid of the bee colony. Oh
one person got stung.

Speaker 2 (01:17:50):
Oh yeah, you're going to catch some flag for that one.

Speaker 4 (01:17:54):
So uh the condo complex did not want to. They're like,
oh gosh, no, they're and so they called this collective.
It's the Bee Collective. It's a group in Columbus. It's
focused on pollinator habitats, et cetera. And said, hey, is
there any way you could relocate these bees? Like, we
want to do this the right way, we're being forced
to by the city we don't want to do it.

(01:18:14):
So the BE Collective is like, yes, we can move it,
but can we wait till the spring, because then we'll
have a greater chance of success with moving this colony.
And the city's like, no, do it now? So yeah,
do you believe that? So the be Collective relocated the bees.
It took about a month and a half and then
they put a sign at the tree and forming residents

(01:18:38):
of the move. Neighbors are so some neighbors are really
upset about this. They're like, we have had a peaceful
coexistence with this bee colony for years, and one person
calls with a beasting and then it's all over. We're done.

Speaker 2 (01:18:53):
I don't know who the person at the city was.
You wouldn't think that that someone at the city would
be like, hey, do you know how much important this is,
because it is. It's pretty important.

Speaker 4 (01:19:03):
Yeah, no, it's really good for your environment.

Speaker 2 (01:19:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:19:07):
But yeah, so that's what's going on there in German village.
I kind of would hate to be the person who complained, though,
because now if anybody knows or catches wind of who it.

Speaker 2 (01:19:17):
Is, its a lot bud.

Speaker 4 (01:19:20):
You have to move out of the neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (01:19:23):
Good job, pal, way to go there, chief, that's what
you do. You call them all those names.

Speaker 4 (01:19:30):
I mean, listen to beasting does hurt, but also like,
come on.

Speaker 2 (01:19:35):
You're not wrong.

Speaker 4 (01:19:37):
I don't know. Maybe it was a worse sting than
we could ever imagine. Maybe it stung someone right in
a taint, and it's like you can't work with that.

Speaker 2 (01:19:47):
Okay, if that happens, I'm taking a baseball bat to
the beehive. All goes thinking to me in my scroat,
I'll bet there, get there.

Speaker 4 (01:19:54):
Then there's the next question you got to ask you right, Well,
of course we can never need we leave well enough alone.
NBC is developing a TV game show based on Wordle,
the popular New York Times puzzle. Jimmy Fallon is producing
a Today Show Anchor Savannah Guthrie is set to host.
They're shooting the pilot right now in the UK. You know,
Wordle six tries to guess five letter word using colored

(01:20:15):
tiles as a clue. Hard pass on that game show.

Speaker 2 (01:20:18):
I can't believe this isn't a thing already. This this
sounds like something game show Network would have jumped on
a long time ago.

Speaker 4 (01:20:25):
Hell I love it as a New York Times puzzle
on my phone. I'm not watching a thirty minute show,
not to mention. No, I mean it takes me three
minutes to do wordle if it's a tough one.

Speaker 2 (01:20:38):
And I think, and I also think that it's you've
the ship has sailed on that one, Like you're a
little late.

Speaker 4 (01:20:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:20:47):
Wordle was a couple of years ago that everyone was
on board with.

Speaker 3 (01:20:50):
Yes, pandemic've pandemic done?

Speaker 2 (01:20:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:20:53):
Really, yeah, I've I played it every day during the pandemic.
It has been months since I've looked at wordle.

Speaker 2 (01:21:00):
I didn't know.

Speaker 3 (01:21:00):
I never played it, but I just assumed people.

Speaker 2 (01:21:02):
Yeah, I definitely jumped on the bandwagon when it was
a bandwagon a while ago.

Speaker 4 (01:21:07):
A Kentucky man has been arrested after disturbing neighbors with
his Halloween yard display. Fifty eight year old Stephen Markham
of Stanton, Kentucky, set up a pretty grim scene in
his front yard. He had multiple black plastic bag shaped
like corpses, and each one tagged with the names or
positions of city leaders. Neighbors were like yeah, so they

(01:21:29):
called the cops on the sky and he was arrested.
They arrested the Sky and charged him with making terroristic threats.
They seized the decorations. Those decorations are now in the
custody of Kentucky State Police and Stephen Markham's in jail. Right,
not wild like it used to be though, that you

(01:21:49):
would have set up like grave markers, gravestones with the
names of like maybe silly names on it for your
little Halloween display, not the names of actual people, right,
any body bags that's weird.

Speaker 2 (01:22:04):
That I could see someone being a bit concern to
kiss and and you know, kind of raising a finger
on that one, like hey.

Speaker 4 (01:22:12):
Yeah, this is a scene. It's not normal, all right,
those are your three things.

Speaker 2 (01:22:17):
Well, we are just a couple of weeks away. What
three weeks away from Halloween? Are you? Are you doing
anything Halloween wise? Or are you in heathery gonna dress
up at all?

Speaker 5 (01:22:28):
You're gonna I do my mad scientist lab and you know,
black out the garage and set up stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:22:35):
And as gonna be handing out candy and you do
the whole thing.

Speaker 3 (01:22:38):
I scared the hell out of some kids. Well I
do that. Oh yeah, as long as unless the weather.

Speaker 5 (01:22:42):
Just sucks right pointless, because I don't hardly get any kids.
But okay, yeah, good weather, good time coming, trick trade
at my house. Nice, okay, full sized candy bars?

Speaker 2 (01:22:51):
You do, full sized candy bars? Look at you? Okay, Well, I.

Speaker 3 (01:22:55):
Figure you're gonna get the crap scared out of you.
Ought to get a reward.

Speaker 2 (01:22:58):
That's a fair trade.

Speaker 3 (01:23:00):
That's very I get entertained. You get a full sized
candy boy.

Speaker 2 (01:23:03):
Good for you, sir. I like that. Well, yesterday we
had to run to Kohle's because on Friday, where the
fiance and the two step sons and I are leaving
for Denver, we have to go to a wedding and
the boys didn't really have any like dress clothes for
a wedding, so we had to go pick out a
few things. And we're walking through. The thirteen year old
goes man, I can't believe they have Christmas stuff up already?

(01:23:25):
Really yeah? And I was like, yeah, that's that's the
times we live in now.

Speaker 3 (01:23:30):
It's like September every year they start putting it up.

Speaker 2 (01:23:32):
Christmas stuff is up. But if that's you, if you
are just counting down the days and cannot wait for
the holidays and for Christmas, and you you could use
some Christmas cheer right now, Well, then jump on a
plane and head over to Pittsburgh because they or drive
three hour drive to Pittsburgh. They just put up their
downtown Christmas tree.

Speaker 3 (01:23:54):
Yep, well that's that seems unusual.

Speaker 2 (01:23:59):
Literally, literally, like most downtown cities, they have themselves a
nice little Christmas setup, and like a lot of downtown cities,
they put in a little mid city ice rink where
you can go skating, and the tree is right there
by the ice rink. Now here's the problem. The ice

(01:24:19):
rink doesn't even open until November fourteen, and they still
and they put the Christmas tree up. It's still seventy degrees.

Speaker 5 (01:24:28):
They got a puddle. It's not ice rink, right, it's not.
It has to be. I mean it must they're doing it.

Speaker 2 (01:24:32):
I don't. Well, they're probably doing an artificial ice rink
where they put down the lining or whatever. But still, yeah,
you've got the Christmas tree up before the ice rink
is ever even ready to go. Mixed reviews of course.
In fact, the News was down there doing a story
on it, and they interviewed a young man by the
name of Marcus Woodruff. Here's what little Marcus had to
say about the whole thing.

Speaker 7 (01:24:51):
I really say it because we're gonna ice skate on
me and my family are gonna ice skate on the tree.
But I say they should have waited for Halloween first.

Speaker 2 (01:25:04):
Even little Marcus is like, Yo, pump the brakes. Let's
get through Halloween. Let me go trigger treating first before
you're gonna put up the Christmas tree and get into
another holiday before we get into this one. So again,
you know, kind of some mixed feelings on the whole thing.
But if you really really, I mean you really need

(01:25:26):
some Christmas cheer in your life, then take a little
weekend trip over to Pittsburgh and you can see the
big old city Christmas tree already up and ready to go.
So I guess happy Holidays from ninety ninety seven of
the Blitz. Now, let's see if we can learn you something.
Sit up and pay attention. Yeah, let's learn you some
stuff on a Wednesday morning, make you a little bit

(01:25:49):
smarter than you were when you woke up today. Like,
did you know there's enough energy in one gallon of
gas to charge your iPhone once a day for over
ten years? Can we figure out how to do that?

Speaker 3 (01:26:00):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (01:26:00):
Really? Yeah? I'll buy a gallon of gas and just
a little generator action. And well, I'm sure that's how
it works. But can we figure this out somehow? Push
The average weight for males in the US ages twenty
years old or older is one hundred and ninety nine
point eight pounds, average weight for females one hundred and

(01:26:21):
seventy point eight pounds. Really, it's twenty years are older. Yep,
that's I mean, that's a that's a large gap. You're
talking twenty to one hundred. I mean, you know, eighty
years of looking at few people with different ways.

Speaker 3 (01:26:34):
But I know the height is like five to five
for women in five to nine five.

Speaker 2 (01:26:37):
Yeah, stuff like that. Yeah. Uh. The most common sentence
in the Harriet Potter's books is nothing happened. The most
common sentence in the Twilight books is.

Speaker 5 (01:26:53):
I side, I side, I side, oh saw sigh side gotcha?

Speaker 3 (01:27:06):
I was I don't know why side was in my head.
I'm like, I said him, I look at what's that movie?

Speaker 2 (01:27:11):
Did you know? In the movie The Mask? It was
Cameron Diaz's first role for her big breakout role. Well,
Cameron Diaz's role almost went to Anna Nicole Smith. Oh no,
which I totally could have seen because I just saw
her in Naked Gun thirty three and a third. Again,
I mean I saw the movie before, but yeah, we

(01:27:33):
watched it. She totally could have been that part, although
Cameron Diaz much better looking. And finally, the most money
that someone can make on an episode of Jeopardy is
five hundred and sixty six thousand, four hundred dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:27:49):
Okay, but on you said one episode?

Speaker 2 (01:27:52):
On one episode, yes, but that would require getting the
daily Doubles as the last questions in both rounds and
doubling up with them every single time. Now, the most
money someone's actually won in one episode is one hundred
thirty one thousand, one hundred and twenty seven dollars. So

(01:28:13):
I mean again, you're talking getting every question right and
then finding the daily doubles last doubling up, and that's
how you would get to five hundred and sixty six
four hundred dollars. But I mean I would take on
hundred and hundred and twenty seven dollars. Yeah, you keep
doing it for several days, yeah you'd be okay. Yeah,
I like Ken Jennings forty some days in a round
million three or something something crazy like that. So there

(01:28:35):
you go, learning to some stuff on a Wednesday morning
ninety nine seven, The Blitz
