this week, Mayor Tim Radford says both events are currently
planned to.

We're keeping a close island weather forecast for this Friday's
Christmas tree lighting in Saturday's Christmas Parade, Mayor Radford said
up a statement released Monday. As of now, both events
are still planning to take place. He said, if the
weather forces a change, the town will make a final
decision by noon the day before each event. Any updates
or schedule changes will be announced through local media to

Lady Eagles one and one, Copper Basin three and three.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
There you have it.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
I know I mixed it up, but it's still this
basketball full swing right now as we get ready to

The Nashville Predators are back in action tonight as they
returned home to face the Calgary Flames. Puck drop eight pm,
oh eight pm Eastern time, Nashville Predators take on the
Calgary Flames, looking to stop a three game home slide.
Nashville's eight thirteen four overall, five eight and two at home,

(09:44):
Predators were they have given up ninety two goals while
scoring just sixty three.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
Can't score, can't stop the other ones.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
Calgary's going five to ten and two on the road
in nine fourteen and four overall, Flames are two eight
and one when they serve more penalty minutes than their opponent.
Jut's game is the second time these teams have met
this season. The Predators won four to two in the
last matchup. So maybe things will go decent tonight. Decent.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
That's all I'm asking for is decent.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Last ten games preads three seven and oh, and the
Flames are five three and two, so neither team really fantastic.
So you're saying there's a chance, Yep, there's a chance

brought to you by Carl Patterson. Flooring in Hayesville with
over thirty five years in the business.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
Why not talk to the professionals.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
You can go by and see them ten eighty five
North Carolina Highway sixty nine in Hayesville, or give them
a call eight two eight three eight nine six two
eight telling two things Number one, the most important thing
Trav sent you. Number two Go prids, ladies and gentlemen,
we need to talk you. Ever go to one of

(11:14):
those big box hardware stores where there are more employees
than customers, and yet somehow you are completely alone. I
walked in yesterday and I swear it felt like I'd
stumbled into a secret employee hide and Seek Championship. I'm
standing there looking confused, which in a hardware store should
be like shooting up the bat signal, and not one

(11:36):
single Kate can find my way. Most of the employees
were perfecting that technique where you turn your head just
enough to make it look like you're focusing on something important,
but not enough to risk eye contact. They've trained for this.
That's probably a whole seminar. Then there were the employees
who walked by so fast they created their own weather systems.

(11:57):
I tried to ask one question and he just blurred
pass like no time. Someone on Aisle thirty four might
be rearranging the paint, so watch just But my favorite,
the absolute MVP, was the guy with the earbuds in,
not one earbud both. He was in his own world.
That man wasn't working in hardware. He was at a
private concert somewhere. I could have asked him where the

(12:19):
lumber was and he probably would have handed me a
glow stick. So, after wondering through plumbing, electrical, lawn, and garden,
seized on the cord and what I'm pretty sure was Narnia,
I finally found what I needed all by myself. Felt
like I had discovered the lost city of Atlantis. I'm
walking away triumphantly holding my prize when I pass an
employee headed the other direction, and I say, don't worry,

(12:42):
I found it. This man stopped, looked at me with
the expression of someone who just heard a math problem
in a foreign language.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Completely lost.

Speaker 1 (12:50):
That confused look on his face it almost made the
whole adventure worth it.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
Almost. If you work at one of these places, help
some people out.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
We're the ones that I pay your salary.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
Come on, people, we can do better by the way.
It was WD forty.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
That's all I was needing, and it was in the
small automotive section of the big box store.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
In case you're wondering, win Or Wick up in the
morning his study Hall time.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Come on in, grab a seat, get ready to be
educated on the things of this world. Looks Sometimes you
would go into class and the topic would be something
you already knew.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
Right today is one of those days.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
Researchers say that stress may be the main cause of
gaining weight. Yeah, it's called stress eating. We all knew that,
I thought. So stressed out you eat for comfort make
sense to me. So if you want to lose weight,

(13:59):
don't be stressed.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
Hat. Now.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
The big question is how do you go through life
without any kind of stress. That's the study I'm waiting
to see results from. Why aren't we spending tax dollars
for that? Instead of Hey, if you're stressed out, seems
like you eat more? No kidd in nine sign there
you go lesson learn class dismissed. Well, our one is all,

(14:27):
but in the bucks, don't you fred? Coming up an

(16:48):

Speaker 2 (16:52):
It is something like I've never seen before. Stay tuned
for that.

Speaker 1 (16:57):
Right now though, it is time for trash track, where
I just play a song that I want to hear
just because maybe I like it, maybe it' to nooy someone.

Speaker 2 (17:06):
But here is today's track.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
News or Nonsense time, the news that surprise exactly no
one who's ever tried to pay rent with a bachelor's
in interpretive dance.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
A fresh poll just drapped.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
Only thirty six percent of voters now think a four
year degree is worth the cost. That's down a casual
twenty percent in just twelve years, y'all. Translation, In twenty thirteen,
fifty six percent of people are like, yeah, totally worth
selling a kidney for that gender studies degree. Now we

(17:45):
are pretty much collectively staring at our student loan statements
like it's a ransom note written in and disappearing ink
because you never get it paid off, do you? The
other season four percent, I have apparently discovered that this
wild new hat called Google exists and YouTube university is free.

(18:07):
Doesn't make you write a thesis on why birds aren't real, y'all.
Top excuses from the nah I'm good crowd, They say
I learn more about finance from TikTok than four years
of ECON lectures. Another one the comments my Beverisa has

(18:28):
a master's in philosophy and still spelled my name j
H O N. And a third one says, turns out
follow your passion as code.

Speaker 2 (18:35):
For enjoy crippling debt loser.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Meanwhile, colleges are sweating like a history major at a
job fair frantically rebranding underwater basket. We even as aquatic
resource management, you know, to justify the tuition of a
small house. So what's the moral of the story here, Well,
f your degree doesn't come with a signing bonus or
at least free pizza at the career fair. Maybe just

(19:00):
learned to code on the toilet like the rest of
the peasants are doing coruct Listen, I'm not anti furthering
your education, but you see these people who are going
and majoring in eighteenth century French art. There's a very

(19:20):
small window of opportunity when it comes to careers for
eighteenth century French art. You pretty much have to be
a professor about that topic or find some slim margin
of employment.

Speaker 2 (19:41):
So I do think.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
That a lot of college is overrated and a money
grab friend once told me, if you want to know
the truth about something, follow the money with.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
A not news. I'm not trav.

Speaker 7 (20:00):
For Husbandology has released the top five reasons husbands are
good for something, starting the list at number five. An
obscure task you need done while he's working from home.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
It's not like he has other things he needs to do.

Speaker 7 (20:17):
Number four explaining things that are far too complicated for
women to understand, and the essential service provided by all husbands.
Number three, when your car makes a funny noise is
particularly helpful after you run over something again.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Number two arm candy.

Speaker 7 (20:36):
Now you'll finally get all the looks when you arrive
at the parties.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
And the number one.

Speaker 7 (20:41):
Reason, now your husband is good for something. Opening your
Amazon boxes with a multi tool. You'd never be able
to open that box so quickly and efficiently without his health.
These things are important to remember as we enter the
holiday season. With today's news, I've been.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Not trav.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
News or Nonsense. In February twenty twenty two, a sixteen
year old named Jack Lari Rott was riding a stolen
trail bike through Sydney's Inner West, no helmet, no plates,
doing about eighty kilometers an hour. Now, that's fifty miles
per hour for US Americans. He's doing fifty on a

(22:01):
bike path on this stolen dirt bike. Sergeant Benedict Bryan,
a forty seven year old police officer with twenty seven
years on the job, sees him coming.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
Now, instead of chasing him.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
Bryant drove his unmarked patrol car onto the path and
stopped to cross it, lights off, no siren, intending to
block the bike and force right, stop, right, it's a
roadblot now. Unfortunately Right didn't slow down. He hit the
side of the police car at full speed, was thrown
off and suffered severe head injuries.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
He died in the hospital the next day.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
Now this month, after a trial in Sydney's District Court,
Sergeant Bright was found guilty of dangerous striving causing death.
The judge ruled quietly parking the car across the path
without activating emergency lights created an unnecessary risk, especially against
an inexperienced teenage rider going that fast. Bryant showed no

(22:56):
intent to hurt anyone. He was trying to stop stolen
bike being ridden dangerously. Still, the court decided his methic
cross the line into dangerous driving, so his sentencing is
set for February. The maximum penalty is seven years. Many
similar cases in with suspended sentences or community service. Now,

(23:18):
as you can imagine, online reaction has been a bit wow,
let's say spicy. A lot of people think it's absurd
that a police officer trying to stop a crime can
be convicted for the criminal death. Others say the tactic
was reckless and the ruling makes sense either way. It's
now officially risky in New South Wales to use your
patrol car as a speed bump, even when the other

(23:41):
guy's breaking half a dozen loss.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
I look, I.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Think you know every case you take things case by case.
But if this kid was rip roaring, you know, causing trouble,
I get it, you gotta stop him. But also I
don't understand why he didn't put his lights on, and
like by lots are we talking about headlights, tailots two

(24:05):
or just his emergency lights. Maybe he didn't think sad
situation all the way around.

Speaker 2 (24:11):
Let me know what you think about it.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
Send me in an email the Travs Show at yahoo
dot com. I'd like for you to weigh in on
this one, this time for today's Facebook find y'all today's item.

Facebook in twenty thirteen. He has a three and a
half star rating on Marketplace. He lists this item as new.

(24:56):
I don't know if it is. I don't know how
you would know if it wasn't. What does he have? Well,

this guy did not follow that advice. He found out
the hard way. From the story, Drawing police detectives are
asking for the public's help locating the man wanted for
gun and drug charges. Police believe Damian Buckner aged thirty six,

(29:45):
was in possession of two handguns and delivery quantity marijuana
when officers responded to investigate a report of gun fired
at his home. Buckner was injured when a handgun stored
in an oven fired multiple rounds as the oven was
heating up. According to police, now at my house, sometimes

(30:08):
we may store some cast iron pans in the oven.
Lack of storage space for those things. So anyway, you know,
you kick the oven ont preheat for something, you forget
about them, and then you go to put your item
in and there they are, and you deal with it
a little different when you forget about a gun that's

(30:29):
in the oven start firing off like popcorn. Uh, y'all.
So apparently it's true. This can happened. MythBusters proved it
in an episode way back when are you old enough
to remember myth Busters? So he gets shot in the

(30:54):
upper arm. Apparently this genius from the cooked bullets. When
police showed up to investigate the gunfire report, they apparently
found the unlawfully owned handguns and the married Juanna. So
he wasn't supposed to have guns or not these guns
for whatever reason, and he had marijuana, and uh, he

(31:18):
gone skipped out.

Speaker 2 (31:20):
We talk about it a lot.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
You watch a movie, you know, about organized crime, and
they seem like, Hey, these people they got it together,
they know what they're doing.

Speaker 2 (31:31):
But then you have to remember it's a movie.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
Every criminal, every criminal at some point makes some kind
of stupid mistake. The problem is a lot of the
criminals who make stupid mistakes they don't get caught because
they're in charge. Hello, Congress, clear that oven of guns
before you heed it.

Speaker 7 (31:59):

Speaker 2 (32:24):
Where's Chevy's cost less Today?

Speaker 1 (32:31):
I am going to tell you how you can sleep
better maybe. A new study suggests that the ancient Chinese
practice of tai chi could be used to treat chronic
insomnia among middle aged and older adults, similar to cognitive
behavior therapy looks like I'm starting tai chi today.

Speaker 2 (32:52):
Y'all. Hey, if it works, I'll do it.

Speaker 1 (32:56):
If you've ever suffered from insomnia, I don't know what
my my specific issue is called. I can go to sleep,
no problem, it's the staying asleep that's the problem.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
Now.

Speaker 1 (33:08):
Tai Chi, a slow, deliberate practice that combines the physical, mental,
and spiritual benefits of martial arts, originated in China in
the late sixteenth century. I don't know, with me being
a Christian man, how do I do? I guess I

(33:29):
could just spend it as prayer time while I'm doing
my slow movements. Now there are added benefits as well.
Aside from helping people get a good night's sleep, treating
insomnia could lead to better overall health outcomes and reduce
the risk of mental disorders and cognitive decline. You think,
so you're telling me that if I get better sleep,

(33:53):
that I'm not going to go crazy as fast and
I'm going to be able to think better. Is that
what you're telling me? Who are the geniuses that came
up with this?

Speaker 2 (34:04):
Now? UH to find out if.

Speaker 1 (34:07):
Tai chi could treat chronic insomnia, and the international team
led by researchers at the University of Hong Kong Go
Wildcats recruited two hundred Chinese adults fifty and older, all
of whom had been diagnosed with chronic insomnia. Study took
place at Hong Kong based research Center between May twenty
and July twenty twenty two.

Speaker 2 (34:27):
Why am I just now hearing about this?

Speaker 1 (34:29):
It was a fifteenth month's study and after initial three
month period they found participants who were treated with CBT
fared up much better than those who were practicing tai chi, so.

Speaker 2 (34:43):
It didn't work.

Speaker 1 (34:45):
However, after the initial after fifteen months, the scores balanced
out considerably, with tai chi group reporting score of at
nine point five P one. So I guess it's a
more natural I don't know, maybe I'll try it out.
So if you having to see me looking like I'm

(35:06):
doing karate in slow motion, two things could be happening.
In One, I could be doing tai chi to try
to sleep better, or two I could be in a
fight and that's just as fast as I can move.

Speaker 2 (35:16):
There you go. Maybe I've helped you out today.

Speaker 4 (36:12):
Crazy.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
It's time for the crazy news story of today. Today
we head to California, where nightmare fuel rains down on us. Today,
California man installed some security cameras around the back of
his house because he noticed some things had been knocked
over and moved around. He thought someone you know, being nosy,

(36:42):
possibly looking to rob the place.

Speaker 3 (36:47):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
His cameras worked captured who was back there messing around,
and the photo here shows a huge pair crawling out
from the cross space under his house. Huge bear, five
hundred pound beast had taken up residents underneath this Altadena

(37:08):
man's home.

Speaker 2 (37:10):
Here's the story. It was really big.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
I've seen him before, but he was going through the
trash and the next morning he's coming out from underneath
my house.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
Johnson said.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
Since then, the bear hasn't just returned, it's moved in.
Johnson said he sees the animals slipping in and out
of the cross space every.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
Day, like it's like it owns the place.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
On Friday, the situation became more alarming when Johnson walked
around the house and to change the camera batteries. He said,
I just glanced at the hole from standing up and
heard a growl and a hiss. I just ran, y'all.
This guy's plan was just let the bear be and
allow him to live there, and he only got concerned

(37:50):
once at growl. I mean, to be fair, who needs
a talk when you've got a bear?

Speaker 11 (37:57):
Now?

Speaker 1 (37:57):
Apparently authorities in California are being slow to act on
this matter.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
Surprise, surprise, CALLI.

Speaker 1 (38:03):
He said, it looks like a monster because the eyes
are close together, and then this big white head, and
I was even sure what.

Speaker 2 (38:10):
I was looking at.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
Law enforcement advised Johnson that's staying indoors would help keep
him safe, but he says he wants the bear gone. Well, yeah,
who wouldn't. He said, I don't need a bear for Christmas.
I want to get rid of the bear for Christmas.
Johnson waits for assistance. He plans to remain inside and
keep the cameras rolling.

Speaker 2 (38:29):
WHI is, no Where's wildlife? Now?

Speaker 1 (38:32):
Look, if he shoots this thing, California will prosecute him,
I'm sure, but they're not gonna help him.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
Nobody's gonna help. Good luck, buddy.

Speaker 1 (38:41):
We'll start calling you Goldilocks, living with your bear, motoring
right through a Tuesday. Hopefully I'm helping you make it
through your day. And if I'm not enough, maybe I
know someone who.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
Can help you out. You're owng coffee company.

you're using to head to the bathroom shrincoffeecomany dot com,
use promo code, trap, show all one word at checkout,
save twenty percent, news or a nonsense. This next story, ma'am,

(40:47):
it's sad, but it's it's also expected, y'all. Headline reads
Brazilian man who wanted to be a line tamer dies
after climbing into a line of enclosure.

Speaker 2 (41:04):
I'd like say sad, but Cali.

Speaker 1 (41:07):
Man nineteen year old nineteen years old, y'all, This nineteen
year old wanted to work with animals, but found out
the hard way that you shouldn't base your knowledge of
animals off of Disney movies. I've said it before, people
think that animals are really like they are on Disney.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
Look that bear.

Speaker 1 (41:27):
He's wanting to sink for the bear, leave me alone.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (41:36):
He climbs in at the Brazilian Zoo into a line
of habitat.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
Why.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
Zoo officials said the man's invasion was sudden, leaving no
time to stop him. So it's like a streaker at
a football game. Suddenly there he was. Now the usual
thing that happens when you enter the line exhibit at
the zoo happened here. This from the New York Post.
A trouble teenager who dreamed of becoming a lion tamer

(42:04):
was mauled to death in front of a horrified group
of zoo goers after climbing a twenty foot fence to
get into the Big Cat's enclosure. The zoo would immediately
close after the incident. Garson Dame Melo Machado, who's been
diagnosed as schizophrenic, has made other attempts at becoming a
lion tamer he wants snuck into the landing gear of

(42:27):
an Africa bound airplane, but was discovered Inhibi. Zoo says
the lioness will not be euthanized because she hadn't been
aggressive outside of this incident where random human entered her enclosure.

Speaker 2 (42:40):
Yeah, CAP was just defending its territory.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
Look, obviously, the story even says this guy has mental issues.
Here's my question. If he has a history of doing
stuff like this, why would you let him go by him?
He's nineteen. I don't know what his relationship was with
his parents. Maybe I mean he's nineteen. Maybe he's out

(43:08):
of the house and does whatever he wants. But now
it'll be on the zoo. Somebody will probably come out.
The zoo didn't do enough to keep him out, so
THEO now they'll have to redesign everything. Sad story, but
when you jump in with the lion, this is what happens.

Speaker 2 (43:26):
How about a little good news?

Speaker 1 (43:28):
On The Kelly Clarkson Show, during the rad Human segment,
Kelly spotlight a cake for kids, which is a nonprofit
founded fifteen years ago by Libby Grunder in California. The
organization connects volunteer bakers with underprivileged children, such as those
in foster care, shelters or facing poverty, to create personalized

(43:48):
birthday cakes or treats like cupcakes and cookies at no cost.
Kids select their own flavors and themes, and the group
is on track to deliver twenty thousand cakes this year,
relying on a nationwide network of skilled volunteers.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
Y'all, what a great idea. Now.

Speaker 1 (44:07):
The segment on Kelly Show turned deeply emotional with a
surprise reunion. Single mom Cassandra, who once lived with her
family in a small rented room during financial hardship, revealed
that Roberta had unknowingly baked her daughter, Camilla's first ever
birthday cake, a vibrant toy story thing creation for Camilla's
fourth birthday in January. Receiving a cake and seeing my

(44:30):
daughter get excited over it made her birthday really magical.
You were the one who baked my daughter her first cake. Ah, Man,
that would get to you, wouldn't you.

Speaker 2 (44:41):
I'm not crying your crying to see.

Speaker 1 (44:44):
These stories need a brighter spotlight on national news. Not
everyone is at each other's throats over stupid things.

Speaker 2 (44:52):
Some people care. How about that.

Speaker 1 (44:58):

Tuesday morning. Thank you guys so much for being a
