Cast a line out and stay awhile the Trilogy Outdoors
Radio Show crew is setting it down in the no
wake zone. If you think the public landing on a
Saturday afternoon is in it, just sit back and enjoy
the next couple of hours of your Saturday morning with
the Grand Strand's longest running outdoor radio show. Captain E
and the crew want to help make your time on

(01:10):

Speaker 4 (01:17):
All right, folks, and good morning, welcome to Trilogy Outdoors
Radio Show. It is our pleasure to be here with
you this week live, and we are coming to you
from Marshall's Marine and Georgetown. We are well, we'll be
talking a lot about what we're doing here and why
we're here today, but we are brought to you by

(01:37):
Marshall's Marine and Key West Boats of Lake City and Georgetown,
where every day is a boat show every day. Fred's
gonna have trouble with this microphone thing, I can already
tell having to reach over and grab it. But we
are also brought to you by our good friends out
of his Park Toyota and the studio where Jenna is
holding things down back there we are. We're here for

(01:59):
a reason. You what, It's been an incredible The last
week has been incredible, it's been inspiring. If it hasn't
brought back a little bit of faith in humanity for everybody,
then you don't have your eyes open and you've got
no chance anyway. I'm sorry, I'm just gonna say it,
but we are down here and we are trying to

(02:20):
collect more items to send up to our friends in
the mountains of western North Carolina and doing that with
Marshall's Marine and with NWTF five Rivers chapter mister Chris
Wilson and crew. We've got a tent inside the store
here that is starting to fill up. We need to

(02:42):
go ahead and fill it up. They're going to be
leaving on Tuesday with stuff. So if you are a
Gator listener and you're in the Georgetown area, we got
a place right here for you to drop off, come
over and see us. We're part We're out front. We're
in the parking lot until the traffic gets too loud
that we have to leave. But I think it sounds fine.
Traffic's not too bad, is it. Anybody gonna talk other

(03:05):
than me? No, I was just wondering. Uh, yeah, this
is how it is, Carter, that for real. It's just
like you know, I mean, we really are prepared. You
do we we we do, we do. We do a
flight plan every day before we go on there. Yeah,
we drink a Coca Cola and say a quick prayer
and hope we get through it.

Speaker 5 (03:26):
Yeah, And.

Speaker 6 (03:28):
Folks, if you don't quite understand a lot of relief
coming out of myrtles in it the fishing crowd down
there and uh and uh.

Speaker 5 (03:35):
We're all doing a small in Georgetown.

Speaker 6 (03:37):
In Georgetown, it's just a small part of uh a
or a lot of people that are going up there
that I saw yesterday.

Speaker 5 (03:46):
It's unbelievable.

Speaker 6 (03:47):
Uh, not military, not government, not anybody organized, just folks
that that care hauling stuff up and it's it's pretty uh,
pretty amazing thing.

Speaker 4 (03:59):
Yep, really quick. As most know, the needs of our
neighbors to the north and our friends in the Upstate
are tremendous, continue to be tremendous, will be tremendous for
months and probably in a lot of cases years. And

(04:20):
joining us in this first segment is uh Tony's nephew
that he is commpletely and rightfully very proud of. I'm
proud to call him a friend. And uh we got
him over stage fright and we got a microphone on him.

Speaker 6 (04:38):
But it's Carter shared and we'll just call you the
tower him.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
I told him into text, I said, just treat me
like air traffic controller. But Carter Sharedan has joined us
and for anybody that doesn't know Carter is a pilot.
He's a Also, you're a certified.

Speaker 7 (04:57):
Trainer now certified fighting story yep.

Speaker 4 (05:00):
And uh man, dude, what about your week?

Speaker 5 (05:03):
Bun coly tired?

Speaker 7 (05:07):
Had almost probably about thirty seven hours behind a stick,
flying back and forth into Ashville and everything. So it's
been it's been back and forth in between my regular
job and flying other stuff.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
So wait a minute, you've got a regular job.

Speaker 7 (05:19):
I guess you'd call that flying regular job. But you fly, Yeah,
I fly for other people.

Speaker 4 (05:24):
That's awesome. And that you because you were in Puerto
Rico this week.

Speaker 7 (05:28):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (05:29):
I mean, just so you know, folks, he's twenty two
years old. He didn't even know how old he was, honestly, he.

Speaker 7 (05:36):
Just I just rolled over.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
Yeah, I could think about it. It just rolled over.

Speaker 5 (05:39):
He's than we are on.

Speaker 4 (05:41):
Yeah. Yeah, and uh Carter and uh let's see you
got Casey is your sister. And then the other one
was Kayla Kayla and Angel yep, mother, I'll tell you
I've texted her quite a few times this week, and
and to let her know how come completely proud she
should be of y'all. Y'all done an incredible job. And

(06:04):
you're working with the church on the relief deal that
y'all are doing. Correct here in town, here in Georgetown.

Speaker 7 (06:11):
Who is it? It is a Georgetown first, simly a
guide there you go. Yep, they're right there on a
kind of like to turn to East Bay. I guess
you'd call that Saint James Street. And uh, they do
the collections as well. Yep, they're still doing collections. They
were collecting most of it all in the gym. And uh,
they took out two big, big, big trailers last night,
headed towards Statesville and dropping back off there. I think
one of them dropped off last night and one of

(06:32):
them dropping off this morning.

Speaker 4 (06:34):
And and and it started off with it was all
airplane at the.

Speaker 7 (06:37):
Yep, yep, it did. It did. But now some of
the roads are starting to get opened up helping people
get in and stuff. So they can obviously carry a
whole lot more than we can, but we can get
in a whole lot of places that aren't accessible by roads.

Speaker 4 (06:47):
And I don't know, I've seen some of them, them
little flappers you've been flying around in and they look
they've packed out, looked like mass it.

Speaker 7 (06:54):
Was packed out. It was it was rolling out good.

Speaker 4 (06:57):
And and and I have some experience with overpacking airplanes
my uncle and my uncle got a delivery this when
he was a golf pro. He got a delivery of
golf balls from the titleist rep while he was playing
in a golf tournament in Colombia, and they had actually

(07:18):
flown up. He flew up with mister Charley Stone. And
everybody listening knows Charles Stone. He used to on Marlon
Quay Marina. But he flew up with Charles and they
landed on the golf course and in the meantime the
golf balls got delivered. Well, he didn't tell the pilot

(07:39):
that he had added all those golf balls. Well, they
were taken off on a hole, on a golf hole,
and apparently he wasn't happy with the speed when he
got to the where he should have raised it, so
he stopped and he said, something's wrong. And that was
when the golf balls were found to have been slipped

(08:01):
in the air plane, which they ended up having to
leave it. They ended up having to leave the plane
and get another pilot to fly it out. But you're landing, uh,
I mean you started off, you were flying into Hickory.
Is that where you were going.

Speaker 7 (08:15):
Our first night, we went straight into Ashville. You did
for international, yep, until it become more like a military airspace.
That's where being that they got the bigger runway and everything. Uh,
the first night was kind of not necessarily unorganized, but
it was just figuring out what in the world's going on,
what are we gonna do, and how we're gonna get there.
I talked to some guys down to Charleston that were
going up, and they were going into Statesville and picking
up a bunch of stuff and then making the hop

(08:37):
to Ashville, Rutherford, Pickens County. Uh, just random little places
like that that were close to Black Mountain and Burnsville
and uh, these places you seemed devastated. And then it
kind of turned out my sister made a little post
and it got a little bit bigger and way bigger,
and then bigger and bigger and bigger, and then we
started running a bunch of stuff out of Georgetown that
just cut out that Statesville and Concord trip for us,

(08:59):
so we could just go straight at Georgetown and get
to the spot and then get back. And it cut
down on time, cut down on fuel, helped us do
it a whole lot cheaper than what running over the
States Fiel burning a bunch of fuel and then hopping
over and then coming back, hopping over, coming back, and
then running back home, which was just two cut out
legs that we didn't have, So that helped out a
whole lot. But yeah, first night went into Ashville, we

(09:22):
talked to them, got everything they needed and figured out
the whole deal of what was going on. So then
we made our second trip back to Ashville, and that's
when things started to really get lit up down in there.
The military started to come in with the chinooks and
everything gets set up, although there's still like that delay
factor of when the hurricane happens to like one, two
three days after where they get sent out and they
get to do things and stuff like that, so it

(09:43):
has to go through a whole chain of command and
then they got to get activated and everything's got to
go up. So once that started getting up, by the
third fourth day, we started swap swapping focus down into Rutherford,
which is close to like Black Mountain and just really
really close to them, and Pickens County and Banner Oak
and up mounting all them. Uh, and we just kept
flying that way.

Speaker 6 (10:04):
Well, tell us about the remote run whay you wanted
to that wasn't even opened that you get so we
will wind into this spot. Tell us about Burnsville.

Speaker 4 (10:15):
Is that now which which one you go in?

Speaker 7 (10:17):
And el bener Elk was the one we come into
with the bigger plane and that's just not the funnest
airport to come into to begin with. They have a
one way in. Well you technically in hat can have
two ways in, but it's just if you come in
on runaway three zero, it's too much of a steep
approach to have a safe landing. And it's only deemed
to do it if the winds are.

Speaker 4 (10:36):
The winds, because the winds are the factor.

Speaker 7 (10:38):
Right, if you say that the winds are more dangerous
to land with a tailwind, then you can land through zero,
But you're also taking in the hand that you're gonna
land with a steeper approach, which is more unstabilized approach
to land. You're coming in max wait and stuff like that.

Speaker 6 (10:50):
Tell us about what happened when you got on the
ground with the people that were that were waiting on you.

Speaker 7 (10:55):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. So to finish up by like
the Ashville. Thing that the crazy part about it a
lot of people don't know, is you come over there's
no really approaches for us to get in these places
because they're mountains terrain, so they can't clear you the
land in weather and stuff like that. So it really
is playing weather as a factor. But you got to
basically overfly the field at a thousand feet and go
down the mountain valley, and they got visual points that

(11:17):
you turn into to come down the valley and land.
And once you get down on final you're coming in
about twenty five to thirty degrees to the runway and
you haven't quite seen it yet, and then you bank
it over and get in there. So there's some that
the trees were you're coming in between trees coming into land.
These mountain airplanes and airports are just they're just built
for people that really grew up flying that way. I

(11:37):
mean a lot of times they'll judge a pilot by
a couple of things, like how many times have been
in the weather, how many times they've flown at night,
how many times they've flown across the country. But a
big one the insurance company looks at is mountain terrain
time because that shows a pilot that if he's flown
twenty years in mountains, he knows what he's doing because
he survived long enough. So it's definitely keep your eyes
open and know what's going on. But uh, yeah, get

(11:58):
did you ever get nervous a little bit? First night?
I didn't have the easiest feeling in the world because
obviously Ashville was all blacked out and uh there wasn't
no lights, so obviously there's no towers lit. And you're
coming in mountains and you've been somewhere you've never been before.

Speaker 5 (12:11):
Dark.

Speaker 7 (12:11):
Yeah, I mean yeah, the first night we went, we
were straight dark. Uh yeah. We come in about like
ten o'clock at that night, and uh so all the
mountains and stuff are that, they're dark, they're black. Uh,
you don't really know. You can read your charts and
you can tell them, and you can read your terrain
and on your iPads and stuff, and you can tell
what it's saying. But you just got to trust it.

Speaker 5 (12:30):
And well, you can't use your eobballs this side it.

Speaker 7 (12:33):
Yeah, you can't use much of it.

Speaker 5 (12:35):
So people were glad to see you when you got
on the ground.

Speaker 7 (12:38):
Oh yeah, there was one guy in Nashville and we
landed down there. He was he was almost a static.
His house got wiped out in the first like the
first two days of that hurricane, and uh, he was
actually sleeping in the FBO and he was just he
was just stacked seazonbody because there was there was no
help at that time. There was just I mean, they
had the doors open to the FBO. They weren't charging
fuel out. They didn't have no like system to go

(13:00):
up or do anything. They're just people are bringing planes
in and they're dropping stuff off. They didn't really know
what was going on. I didn't have service. I knew that, Like,
they didn't have services look at anything neither. And he
didn't have no gas for his car to get back
and forth. He's sleeping on the couch in the FBO,
and I'm just like, oh, man, that that sucks. And
I asked him, like, what's one thing he needed? And
he said, honestly, man, with all the people bringing in

(13:20):
waters and crackers and these staple foods, He's like, I
just want some real food. Like, is there any way
you could bring Like I'll pay for it if you
want to bring eggs or if you want to bring meat,
or something like, well you just bring real food. So
people that are church got together and stuff and they
bought like a whole they did each day they did
foods they did the first day they bought like a huge,
huge pallette chicken tenders and uh other like little tiny

(13:43):
foods like mac and cheese and some other random things.
And we threw it. They got it right before we
left off. They had it hot. We kept it right
up in the back, right in the sun, so it
stayed hot. We got on the ground and I've never
seen a guy smile that much of my life. He
was so happy, I thought he was about to just
jump out worse.

Speaker 8 (13:58):
Every sack it.

Speaker 4 (13:59):
Up well back back to And this was my thing
that that that I knew Jason, Jason's got a big
old heart for anybody that doesn't know that yet, And
Jason's got a big old heart, and I knew his
experience up there was gonna pull on that heartstring this
week seeing all these people and how much you appreciate it.
But that first that that first day at Banner out

(14:22):
when you landed, and of course I'm sure there weren't
many before you that had gone in there, that there
had to been a lot of happy people right there.

Speaker 7 (14:30):
A bunch, a bunch everybody. I've never, not one person
has I heard say anything about stop or we don't
need this, or slow down or no it's nothing but.

Speaker 4 (14:39):
So so so me. You mean, what we're seeing on
Facebook and social media is not the truth where people
are saying, no, we don't need it.

Speaker 7 (14:46):
I haven't heard one person say stop, this is too
much or anything.

Speaker 4 (14:50):
I mean.

Speaker 7 (14:50):
We even had a pilot come in from Knoxville, Tennessee,
yesterday to drop his person off and uh she was
coming to her house and Polly's Island. But he said,
they're absolutely devastating. They're Noxville, Tennessee. He lives on downtown Knoxville.
And by the time I even got back, he said,
is anyway you can load my plane up? And I
was like, yeah, we can. So we went home. We
really church. We loaded the whole entire plane up, and
he said, and we actually had pilots on the ramp

(15:12):
at the time that we're saying, uh, yeah, we just
had a call for a PPR to get in there
because they're trying to kind of limit what's going on
in there and see trying to slow down stuff and
he's like, I don't know why, because we're absolutely devastated.
There's no help and we need to get stuff in there.
So he's like, if you want to come down into Tennessee,
we got a runway down there and they're letting people
in non stop, trying to get supplies in because they

(15:33):
just need it. And we loaded his plane up with
ensilin and all these staple the SESI foods, canned foods,
even sent him on his way Max Wait going out
and he took everything back that he could back to Knoxville, Tennessee.

Speaker 4 (15:45):
And well, let's talk about that, as you just said,
the PPR, because here's one thing that everybody is hearing
and reading on social media is that now they are
cutting they're not letting airplanes in that if you're not
involved with female they're not letting you in the helicopters.
That is untrue.

Speaker 7 (16:06):
Correct, Yeah, from my understanding is untrue. I do know
that Ashville is more or less a military airport now
and you can't get a PPR, but it's more or
less on the grounds that it's like a pre approval
request you come laying your airplane. Basically it's put in
action and bigger airports to make sure they got the
room for you, which I understand they're trying to make
sure there's a lot of people coming in these airports.

(16:27):
They're trying to make sure that they got room for
you to come in land. But they're also trying to
not necessarily the weed out some on the track. But
Dashville that is mainly they have these bigger airplanes starting
to come in now they're trying to organize things. They're
trying to make sure that it's a bigger aircraft coming
in with really necessity supplies and that you have a
valid organization that you're rolling with and it's not just
people coming in sight seeing or just dropping stuff off. Right,

(16:48):
they're just trying to weed some of that out. But
these smaller airports are starting to get pprs. They're really
just trying Because Rutherford they have a I wouldn't even say.

Speaker 4 (16:55):
They're just real quick for and I'm sure people have
seen it on the Matt Rutherton is like neighbors to
Lake Lore. They're they're one of the closest towns the
Chimney Rock Lake Lower are well lake Lore they're below it.
But so they I mean they got devastated.

Speaker 7 (17:10):
You can actually see uh uh Lake Loure on the
departure leg of the runway out there. Oh really actually, yeah,
you can actually see all that.

Speaker 4 (17:17):
But so you've so you've flown over Lake Loure.

Speaker 7 (17:20):
Yeah, yep.

Speaker 4 (17:22):
Does it look as bad as the pictures?

Speaker 7 (17:24):
And I got pictures on my phone and stuff. It's
just I don't even really know how to tell you.
I've seen trees and stuff snapped in half and they're
just sticking up. I'm like, they said they got new
tornadoes and stuff. But I just don't understand how in
the world something got that bad to just completely snap
trees and snap them on houses. And there was actually
we was cruising down the U the uh river going
out one of these times there was actually a request

(17:45):
for the people said that they lost their mom. That
was just she flowed down the river. They don't know
where she went. And they said, would anybody just fly
down the river and see if they see somebody, just
just to kind of rest us soul a little bit.
And We're like, yeah, sure, we'll go. So we had
all of our pilots are flying in the area trying
to fly down there a little bit and uh it's anything,
but you did. You could see like houses just pinned
up against trees, and I actually got one. There was

(18:06):
like a V at the creek and there was just
two houses and a bunch of just random trashes shoved
up in between the V. And I'm just like how
because I know exactly. I've been going to Chimney Rock
and all these places since I was a kid, and
I know exactly what they look like. And it's it's
not a river. It's really you see a lot of
the rocks and the creeks and stuff, and like the
little little waterfall and stuff, but it's just it's pushing water.

(18:28):
It's gushing. It's crazy.

Speaker 8 (18:29):
Went from a little babbling stream to.

Speaker 5 (18:33):
Full rapids Raiso torment.

Speaker 4 (18:36):
You know, I think once you one thing you just said,
and here you are your twenty two you for I
think for a lot of us like that is our
I mean, Tony has taken what one vacation in however
many years, and it was where to the mountain to
the mountains. I mean, I think that's our Like we
all feel close to it because it's our getaway from

(18:56):
a lot of us. And I've been going there since
I was four, years old.

Speaker 6 (19:00):
Yeah, we is coastal folks like us, and we have
a hurricane. We saw this damage was all wind damage,
you know, and the trees are broken and things down
and all that.

Speaker 5 (19:11):
Up there.

Speaker 6 (19:12):
What I saw was where something is say ten foot
wide coming off a coming off a slope down to
the road. It had cut the far side of the
road off. So that means that water that was coming
down off that mountain doing ninety is cutting roads and

(19:32):
the trees that like we normally see trees blowing over,
a lot of these trees are already wet and they
get to take much knock them over from what Alan
was telling me, but it's water in its height of
water that's moving real fast and it's taking these areas
and just bulldozing it through there, unlike what we see

(19:53):
here on the coast where the wind does all the damage.
You have to kind of use your imagination to realize
how how much water was flowing through there to do
what it did.

Speaker 5 (20:03):
This is unbelievable.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
Well, and you got to think about this. I'll be
say we're over at Mertles in litt or you're on
the mainland at Litchfield or Pauli's island and we have
a hurricane and a coup and houses are destroyed out there,
people are missing, and we all go get our aluminum boats,
we go get something, we drive over, we help people. Well,
you take that same scenario and you got, in some

(20:27):
cases three to four thousand feet elevation difference and sides
of mountains to get to that spot in access, it's
just completely different. And I mean, you know, it's not
anything there's no way that North Carolinas had that their
EOC had any planning of anything like this scenario like this.

(20:49):
I mean, so it's just in you know, just an
incredible situation. And well when you look and you see
ten miles of road just completely gone, you don't just
go through some black passion in that and fix the road.

Speaker 8 (21:03):
It's not glad. Terrain is not accessible.

Speaker 4 (21:06):
I mean houses up there, some of them houses are
You might have seen another house for a mile and
a half, two miles.

Speaker 6 (21:12):
There's and they're not gonna get to these people anytime
soon far as road access. I mean we were on
one oh five and that's the main drag and it's
barely passable.

Speaker 4 (21:23):
Well, real quick, I want to for anybody that's just
tuning in. We are Trilogy Outdoors Radio Show, and we
are here on the Gator obviously, but we are at
Marshall's Marine and Georgetown, and we're here to help and
push people to come on out here and let's load
up some more supplies to send up there this week
in a truck that Chris Wilson with n WTF five

(21:46):
rivers has gotten set up. And this is not going
to be anytime soon that we stop.

Speaker 8 (21:55):
This, nor should it be, Nor should it be.

Speaker 4 (21:57):
It's not. And joining us is Carter Sheridan, who is
a pilot here in Georgetown, and like I said at
the beginning, is Tony's nephew. And Carter was kind enough
to he's taking a little bit of a break. Thirty
seven hours in a week. There's a lot of time
in an airplane.

Speaker 7 (22:15):
Dude, that's a lot.

Speaker 4 (22:16):
That's a lot. I mean you done, you know thirty
seven you're thinking of forty hour work week, Like, man,
you didn't even work a forty hour work We don't
even want to get into that. I'll argue for you.
Don't worry. I could be your lawyer on that one.

Speaker 5 (22:30):
You're just seeing the seat.

Speaker 6 (22:31):
That's not the prepay how many hours did it take
to get to that thirty seven hours?

Speaker 7 (22:38):
I couldn't even tell you. I don't know. I don't know.
It's crazy to even think just the chain that it
takes to get this going, because it's not even nowhere
near just me. It's it's my sister and my mom
and my girlfriend and all them, and Miss Nancy and
all them down to the church. They're insteady trying to
it's not just here supplies, let's go, it's here supplies.
We got a way so we know how much we're

(22:59):
putting these plans because now are weight limited, and they
waigh them, they bag them, they organize them. Then they
get trucks there, and then they got people taking trucks,
loading the trucks up, taking them to the airport, and
then the airport. The people at the airport, all the
line guys and stuff. They're tremendous people. They're filling up
all of our airplanes and they're getting us all loaded.
They're getting the trucks through the gates to get to
the airplanes, loading airplanes up. And then you go to
the air traffic control and I'm the first night in Nashville.

(23:20):
I mean, they sat there and had a ten to
fifteen minute conversation with me about it. And that's unheard
of air traffic control to have a conversation with you
because they're just they're so busy up there, and they
had a conversation. They were like, oh, what are y'all
doing and how are y'all doing it? Like we're doing
some stuff up here. We're trying to get some stuff
out there, Like tell us what you're doing, and I
told them and all that stuff. And then you get
down into Ashville and Rutherford and all these other places

(23:42):
and they have mountains of people and trucks and I mean,
it's just it's not one person, it's not two people,
it's a whole entire village. Because then it gets from
us to it gets loaded up on helicopters. People are
putting out these helicopters for people to run out there.
They're dropping supplies all picking people up, bringing them back,
and uh, it just it goes for everybody. I mean,

(24:02):
it's even down to the weirdest things, Like you wouldn't
think about animals or anything, but they were taking animals
out of the airports the other day because they were
just finding them and they basically call it angel flights.
They put the animals in crates and they take them
to a like Saint Animal Francis Center people like that
to accept them. It's just you got to have people
that accept them and stuff like that. But it's just

(24:24):
there's so much stuff you don't think about that goes
into it.

Speaker 5 (24:26):
And you're a plane. You don't just throw stuff in
this plane? You got it?

Speaker 6 (24:29):
How much a ways? Where are you gonna put it in?
For the center of gravity in the plane?

Speaker 7 (24:34):
A lot of masses?

Speaker 6 (24:35):
Exactly how much it ways? And can you actually get
the thing off off?

Speaker 4 (24:39):
So so you I'm gonna guess you don't own a
plane yet, do you know.

Speaker 7 (24:45):
Nope, We've had a bunch of people.

Speaker 4 (24:46):
So these people are donating these planes to let y'all use.

Speaker 7 (24:49):
Them, yep. And they do not run cheap, and they're
they're taking the blow of the what they call it
dry maintenance costs. Basically, they break down the hours and
how much they cost. Stuff. Every time you're on that engine,
it's costs us much to get an old change, the
one hundred hour, the annual, all these maintenance inspections we
got to have on these planes. And these people are
just they just have it in their hearts.

Speaker 6 (25:09):
Owners are absorbing the cost of operating the aircraft.

Speaker 7 (25:12):
And you got it.

Speaker 4 (25:13):
And a lot of people don't understand. Yes, there is
a need for cash and monetary because that is going
towards that fuel cost.

Speaker 7 (25:23):
YEP.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
And is what is just your average want to average
in the in the single engine twenty times this week?
What is your average on the gas the fuel to
burn to go to Ashville and back to Georgetown.

Speaker 7 (25:35):
Yeah, so it kind of depends on the plane. You
take them smaller smaller one seventy two eighty twos, they're
burning about two fifty three hundred dollars to get there
and back, which it doesn't sound much when you're taking
about I think the other day we rolled the one
eighty two out at about six seven hundred pounds in cargo,
and so that was that was a good bit. When
you think about six seven hundred pounds when you're shipping

(25:55):
something in the mail, think about how much they charge
you at FedEx to put something the mail in the
box and send it off and whatever it is. And
we're looting these things down to the brim and you
probably seen the photos and stuff, so it costs about
two hundred fifty three hundred dollars in between there.

Speaker 6 (26:08):
That's just fuel. That what you mentioned earlier. All this
maintenance costs yep is not inexpensive.

Speaker 7 (26:16):
Yep, YEP. And we're we're thankful the owners are helping
us out there and they got the heart to serve too.
And but I mean, we've also had bigger airplanes like
King Airs and other people like that. We had the
one guy come in with the King Air. He cracked
me up. He said, just make sure I got room
to step every three feet. You can't overload it. And
we still kept track of weight and everything, and we
put all the max we could and I got videos

(26:36):
of how much.

Speaker 4 (26:37):
I saw video of the King Air. I think that
was when somebody was in the back shooting the video forward.

Speaker 7 (26:42):
And said that they just we could hold basically three
hundred in the front, two thousand in the cabin and
five hundred in the back and top off the wings,
and that was he was going wow out yeah, and
it's I was almost kind of shock, just how much
you can hold with that weight, because I was like, okay,
I was filling up my truck and I'm like, this
might overload it, we'll see what we can get with
and got there and I was like, dang, this ain't
even nowhere near our or so think about filling up

(27:04):
your truck bed and in the back seat of your car.
And we're pretty much putting about two of them into
each little plane. And then the king Air took almost
five trucks. Yeah, going, I'll tell.

Speaker 4 (27:13):
You what that's that's uh, I've had some I've had
a couple great experiences in king AARs flying back in
my golf days with with private individuals and their planes.
And that's a cool plane. That's a cool plane.

Speaker 5 (27:30):
And let's roll.

Speaker 4 (27:31):
Listen what we don't want you to go. If you
have to go, we understand, but we want you to
hang out. We've got uh real quick, let's talk about

Speaker 5 (29:03):
Well all that was up my house.

Speaker 4 (29:04):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (29:05):

in their hands.

Yep.

Speaker 5 (29:12):
Alan I spoke to a minute ago.

Speaker 6 (29:13):
He's gonna be with us, Uh, he said, Adobe Fish,

Well, here's what we're gona do, because we're gonna have
a limited commercial today. We've got an incredible line up. Again,
like I said, Carter, we'd like for you to stay

take a little bit longer break and then we're gonna
try and get bring you more from here at Marshall's

(29:45):

Speaker 4 (30:07):
I can't tell you how many we loaded up yesterday.

Speaker 6 (30:09):
Yeah, so you know, anything to you odorant, anything along
those lines, they don't have it.

Speaker 4 (30:15):
Well, we've got a couple others that would be joining
us who have been up there. We're going to talk
about that, the the necessities that we're seeing. We're seeing
that change, you know what I'm saying a little bit.
We're with the weather and everything. But Jenn, if you're ready,
we'll go to break y'all. Don't go anywhere. We'll be

Speaker 10 (33:26):
But then you guys are doing some remarkable things there.

Speaker 9 (33:29):
It's just a warms the heart, and in times of need,
that is the outpouring of giving and UH and people
willing to help, just just volunteering.

Speaker 5 (33:38):
Well, willing to help. Alan, Let's start here.

Speaker 6 (33:42):
You left your house when and tell everybody what you
had in your back, your truck and your first adventure
to get from Boom to Lemville.

Speaker 9 (33:51):
Well, I've you know, I've been working at Lenville as there.
I started off in level as their outdoor programs director,
so I was the fishing guide, you know, we're running
fishing trips. And then I'm kind with my construction background,
morphed into the director of facilities in Lynville and.

Speaker 10 (34:07):
The I run a chestnut construction company there.

Speaker 9 (34:10):
So as facilities director, I've got to keep water going
to the town of Lynville, and we've got to keep
the wastewater treatment plant.

Speaker 10 (34:19):
Run, and you know all these You know, we had
no power. We had nothing. So Friday night or Friday.

Speaker 9 (34:24):
Afternoon, when the Wednesday was really bad up here, Friday, Thursday,
Thursday night, a lot of flooding. Friday, the wind started
and nobody had power. So as soon as the winds
laid down enough where I felt it was safe, I
put both of my sons, Clays twenty five and Cooper
who's sixteen. They're just you know, champion at the bit
to get out the door and help. And so we

(34:47):
loaded up my truck with cooler supplies that we may
need because you know, my youngest son's type of one
given on diabetic We put two days worth of supplies
and his kid. And because we didn't know what we
were going into and what when we could get back,
so we left with chainsaw, bar oil, gasoline, several change
you know, uh Peev's breaking bars, anything we could use,

(35:08):
uh to try to get to Lynvill and uh we listen.
We set out about two o'clock after the winds laid
up here in the afternoon on Friday, uh and made
it to Lenville five hours later.

Speaker 5 (35:19):
Yeah, well, tell us about your adventure on the on
the road.

Speaker 6 (35:24):
We you're and you're well equipped with chainsaws and everything.

Speaker 9 (35:28):
Need well, we we we were just trying to get
to Limville to see who needed an immediate assistance for
life saving, you know, if anybody was trapped or flooded
in our in our Limboll community. So we got there,
we had to We had a little pickup on Highway one.
Oh five going to Lynville, forty fifty trees that have

(35:50):
not been cleared yet towards grand after Grandfather Mountain, going
into Lenville.

Speaker 10 (35:54):
So we uh, there was one d OT worker who
had a mishap with his saw and it went down.
He bent at the bar.

Speaker 9 (36:01):
So we just jumped in there with hours and started
clearing trees. Had twelve or fifteen good Samaritans you know
behind us and pick up trucks.

Speaker 10 (36:09):
They all jumped out ran down there and we were.

Speaker 9 (36:11):
Just cutting cutting brush and trees and dragging them and
cutting fork sticks and propping up power lines that were dead,
Thank goodness.

Speaker 10 (36:20):
Because we all we did.

Speaker 9 (36:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (36:22):
So anyway they yeah.

Speaker 9 (36:24):
So we propped them up where the trucks could get
under them some because we couldn't get them all the
way down the load to drive over them. And we
made it to made it to limble and then you know,
it was just you couldn't really see dark. By then,
you really couldn't see a whole lot of the damage
we did. You know, we found out that the lodge
had their generators running and some power.

Speaker 10 (36:45):
So we were housing our staff there that needed it.

Speaker 9 (36:50):
Uh wait, staff cookie staff that's left here came from
their dormitories down into the lodge and house them safely.
That night on Saturday was when it really came to
light how how catastrophic it was.

Speaker 5 (37:01):
It was.

Speaker 9 (37:02):
It was a mess, you know, major thoroughfares washed out,
Highway one O five had huge sinkholes and half the
lanes gone, and and it was that moment where, you know,
in the in the darkest despair, you see the local
people here started just higling out, I mean track hos, tractors,

(37:23):
four wheelers, anything that would roll. They started rolling out,
the local paving companies, dump trucks, every It was amazing.
It's Saturday, the recovery actually began before the water's even peaked,
you know, it was it was amazing to see that that,
you know, that action from the local population.

Speaker 6 (37:44):
Well, we'll move ahead to what you've got going on
right there, to lodge in at what y'all referred to
as the camp, which is a is a like a
wedding reception facility type.

Speaker 9 (37:57):
Yeah, we're very fortunate here. Lynn Resorts and the Easy
Old Lodge as great resources and the history of of
the organization and the members there is all about the community.
I mean, these are some of the most generous kind
people you will you will find, and and it's very fortunate.

(38:18):
They just they just have tremendous resources. So we my
general manager is excellent. He uh, he's a good leader
and he uh he was able to just we shut
down the lodge, we shut down the golf course of course,
and uh and we made Lynville a hub for getting

(38:39):
goods out to the communities that are close to us.
So we've got Lynville is a mess, but we will
recover Spruce Pine, plum Tree, you know, Uh, all all
the little Bakersville, Burnsville, all those little communities and and
you know poor the town of Poor Newland has.

Speaker 10 (38:58):
Just got wrecked.

Speaker 9 (38:59):
Uh, so all those are just we are ground zero
for those guys. You know, we can get supplies to
them in fifteen twenty minutes.

Speaker 6 (39:07):
Right, But yesterday I saw plenty of stuff coming in
and didn't see a lot going out. But you've mentioned
me this morning about the efforts now to actually get
materials that you have on hand and di shriving them.

Speaker 5 (39:18):
So tell us about that.

Speaker 9 (39:20):
Yeah, some of the volunteers are coming in with like
our all of our facilities.

Speaker 10 (39:26):
We have these truck we have ton trucks.

Speaker 9 (39:28):
We have dump trucks, so we now have drivers. They're
volunteering to take loads at least ton truckloads. You know,
we're trying not to put pickup truckloads there. We're we're
really just doing big truckloads of stuff straight to these
facilities as far as we can get them. So we'll

(39:48):
hand them off to tents or aid stations.

Speaker 5 (39:53):
And these are local folks, right Alan, and are running this.

Speaker 10 (39:57):
Yeah, local folks, Yeah, local folk. It's funny.

Speaker 5 (39:59):
You got.

Speaker 9 (39:59):
I'm sorry to sound a little disheveled, but I'm as
I'm hitting here talking to you.

Speaker 10 (40:03):
I've had nine phone calls.

Speaker 9 (40:05):
Of people like, you know, uh, what.

Speaker 11 (40:08):
Do I do?

Speaker 7 (40:08):
Where do I go?

Speaker 10 (40:09):
What am I doing it? It's awesome, man.

Speaker 9 (40:12):
People are just like constantly wanted to say, Hey, where
do I go with this?

Speaker 4 (40:15):
I can imagine.

Speaker 9 (40:18):
Yeah, yeah, it's cool man, it's uh, you know, it's
that's good stuff with all the people wanting to help.

Speaker 10 (40:24):
But Fred, what we do.

Speaker 9 (40:25):
Is we hand them off to uh, to these centers
that are even closer to the people in need, and
then they get on smaller trucks.

Speaker 10 (40:34):
You know.

Speaker 9 (40:35):
Uh, there's even a couple of guys with pack horses
and doctors taking medicine back into some of these places
that nobody can get to helicopters if they'll continue to.

Speaker 10 (40:44):
Let the helicopters in.

Speaker 9 (40:45):
It's it's just to me, it's infuriating to see all
these private guys that are willing to help, Like you're like,
you're your twenty two year old pilot from down there helping.

Speaker 10 (40:54):
You know.

Speaker 9 (40:54):
It's like these guys want to jump in and help,
and they're doing great things. They could actually rescue people.
But you know, some of our local uh, some of
the red tape I guess you know, they're they're not
trained in search and rescue. They're saying the liability is
too great. Don't don't don't help. You know, it's like,
oh my gosh, y'all.

Speaker 10 (41:12):
It's crazy. I get that, you know, in a sense,
I get it.

Speaker 9 (41:16):
It's it's everybody wants to help, and it's it's you know,
you just got to be real careful with the logistics.

Speaker 10 (41:21):
You know you've read, you're seeing it.

Speaker 9 (41:22):
You get all these people coming in this inundated with
these donated goods, and then it becomes a big, you know,
a cluster.

Speaker 10 (41:29):
What do you do?

Speaker 9 (41:31):
What do you do now with all this stuff? How
do you get it to the people who need it?
And that's what Limbell's doing in a superb way. We
have the facilities to store this stuff, we have a
pipeline to the people who need it well.

Speaker 6 (41:43):
And that's what we didn't see at the other site
we went to yesterday.

Speaker 9 (41:48):
That yeah, most people are just going to be driving up,
dropping it off and uh and leaving.

Speaker 10 (41:53):
And I can tell you that there's.

Speaker 9 (41:55):
A there's a uh supply of people that are willing
to drive personal vehicles or some of our vehicles from
the company and and go straight to the places that
need them most. Unfortunately, the roads are still in such
bad shape in these areas that that it you know,
it's uh, you know, it gets gets smaller and smaller.
You know, it's it's it's uh, you know, full wheeler,

(42:17):
side by side stuff when you get down to some
of these communities.

Speaker 6 (42:20):
Yeah, I mean one o fives of uh. I'd call
it a main drag, and I mean Scott is Scott
is the issues and then we'll call that the main drag.
Much less all the the fingers that go out from
there from levell And and to try to get things
moving around.

Speaker 9 (42:37):
Yeah, Spruce Pine, I mean, they don't have any roads
left hardly.

Speaker 4 (42:40):
I mean I heard Spruce Pine was one of the worst,
one of the worst areas up there, one of the
many bus there.

Speaker 9 (42:47):
And I mean yeah, and it's it's just and then
on the on the darker side of things, you know,
we've got so many fatalities and it's it's hard to
even report an accurate number. There's still there's still one
hundreds missing in these communities and you know there it's
it's just, uh, you know, they're definitely in the recovery
mode now, but it's.

Speaker 4 (43:07):
Jason told Jason. I had Jason Burton on podcast yesterday
and Jason said that when they were in Burnsville, uh
in speaking to the authorities there, that as of this
Monday coming up, that it was they were going all
out in recovery mode.

Speaker 5 (43:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (43:26):
At that point, Alan, Jason, Jason is a god out
of merles On that they've been. Man, they have just
been amazing on how much gear they're getting out that way.

Speaker 4 (43:36):
Yep.

Speaker 6 (43:36):
And they went up earlier in the week and saw
some stuff. That's some people that had nothing when they arrived.

Speaker 9 (43:42):
So one thing I really want to touch on is
that just you know, this is going to be ongoing
and it's very fluid right now, and we're getting some
good organization and getting things, you know, a pipeline built
and leaders that did tell people, you know, what to
do with their resources now. But in the next couple

(44:02):
of weeks it's going to start getting cold up here,
and that as a whole nother layer of of what
you know.

Speaker 10 (44:08):
What do we do now? How do we how do
we help these people?

Speaker 9 (44:11):
And so we're it's it's constantly changing, and so the
donations a month from now will be just as important
as the donations right now. They may change in what
they need.

Speaker 6 (44:24):
Right well, that all will bring that up Alan. Is
that what something you can help us do down here
and get the word out here is that we saw
how much water yesterday? I mean, is water for some
if somebody's thirsty for water, is there? But the need's
going to change as to what items do we need
to gather here to get there? It could be most useful.

Speaker 10 (44:46):
Stuff can goods, can openers believe.

Speaker 9 (44:49):
Or not, That's what I was told, And people donate
a case of of can goods that don't have pop tops.
You know, it's still great to get the goods which
can't op them so uh so man uh personalizing items uh,
adult diapers to to all the way down to baby diapers.

Speaker 10 (45:11):
Uh gosh, what else?

Speaker 9 (45:14):
Box boxed milk, stuff that doesn't perish. You know, we
need solar powered chargers, solar powered lanterns, you know, like uh,
stuff for equipment, barrol chainsaw you another one?

Speaker 5 (45:28):
Yeah, uh, you know it's.

Speaker 10 (45:29):
It's gasoline is not so much.

Speaker 9 (45:31):
There's pipelines that there their places getting gasoline, and that's
the hats the transport wouldn't worry about that as much
as I would the smaller little things.

Speaker 10 (45:40):
Of h bar oil.

Speaker 9 (45:42):
But things that that aren't perishable, that's that's what they're
gonna need. Most socks the biggest request. We have socks, underwear,
t shirts, you know, the things that are new, so
you not uh and on palettes because if they're coming
in trucks, you know we can we can handle palette.

Speaker 4 (46:00):
You mean you don't want you don't want Fred going
through his underwear Jordans grabbing some of his old underwear.

Speaker 9 (46:05):
Hey, if I see anybody wearing a sweet Peach charter shirt,
I will say I know that I know where that
came from.

Speaker 4 (46:11):
Yep, I'll tell you. Here's an interesting thing that was
brought up last night that was requested pull noodles and
five gallon buckets, yes, for toilets for making toil huh
yeah interesting.

Speaker 10 (46:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (46:29):
So you know, there's uh, there's there's a lot. There's
a lot to do, a lot gonna be going on
for for a long long time. And you know, the
local these the people that have been affected, guys, they
are some of the most resourceful, you know, self sufficient,
proudest people you will ever meet. Just because they live

(46:51):
in some little rural community in the mountains does not
make them ignorant, doesn't make them any any anything. These
are remarkable people.

Speaker 4 (46:59):
Please for the people in the back of the room
say that.

Speaker 12 (47:04):
I know.

Speaker 10 (47:04):
I'm oh, my gosh, these these dudes.

Speaker 9 (47:06):
Are these people men, women and children are you know?

Speaker 10 (47:10):
They're they all have their faith.

Speaker 9 (47:12):
Uh, they're all faith based communities. They all revolve around
their church. But they're so resourceful with what they have
and they're the wealthiest people I know because they have
a community, they have a church, they have each other,
and they depend on each other and it's it's you know,
these some of these people lose, these these these families,

(47:33):
These guys will lose their house, and yet they're standing
there the next day helping others and they have no home,
and they're just trying to help the people that survived
in their community where you know, generations, multiple you know,
entire families that have been lost. So you know, they
just need to hand up a little assistance and then
they don't need they don't need help them them, you

(47:56):
know anybody else really. I mean, they'll they'll survive. But
what the outpouring of of the local people has been remarkable.
Fred saw a little bit of that yesterday. Guys bringing
bales of hay. You know, uh, you know, people with
just their farm trucks loaded down with supplies, water and food.

(48:16):
I mean, it's it's amazing. It's where all this this
stuff is coming from. Well, it's coming from you guys.
It's coming from my father in law's church down in Longwood.
You know, they've gotten they have tractor trailer load of
stuff ready to go up here now. And that brings
me to something I want to say before I forget
it and I'll run out of times. I don't know
these people, but I'm gonna give them a shout out
if I got.

Speaker 10 (48:36):
Time, So.

Speaker 9 (48:38):
Bryce, to whoever you guys are, ladies, then thank you.

Speaker 10 (48:44):
Very much from the bottom of the heart.

Speaker 9 (48:45):
If I ever get a chance to shake your hand,
I'll probably just give you a big old' hug. But Bryce, Gavin, Trey, Terry,
Frank and Landa and and a Greg Holmes from fish
Skinning doubt he Greg gave. They're gonna be people walking
through the woods in North Carolina with fish skinna hoodies on.

Speaker 10 (49:06):
For years to come.

Speaker 9 (49:08):
We don't know what that means, but they got it
and then lasting not least. Look, I've got a good
friend down there, catm Fred war Now Fred, you and
Noah and Daniel.

Speaker 10 (49:21):
What y'all did and what Noah did?

Speaker 7 (49:23):
Uh?

Speaker 10 (49:24):
And just in short order, thank you so much.

Speaker 9 (49:27):
You drove six hours up here, six hours back and uh.
And that's that's giving. And that's what uh, that's what
you know. That kind of heartwarming action just is that's
what keeps you going.

Speaker 4 (49:38):
Well, I can I can tell you. I can tell
you that from the moment this became what it did,
that you were on friend's mind, it's it. I promise you.
I'll go back and pull up text and show you
that on Saturday of last week or even Friday last week,
we were already starting to talk about this, Fred, weren't
you and it had already brought it up. I'd like

(50:01):
taking then or did we imagine it would get to
the degree where we've got pilots sitting beside us with
planes and then and to where we're at now. But
I mean, it's just it's incredible.

Speaker 6 (50:12):
Alan, I'd like to take credit for a lot of that,
but I'm gonna say ninety at least ninety percent of
the effort they went into. What we've brought was Noah
through his through his social media and his buddies and
the names you mentioned as all those guys are the
ones that fill that truck up. But on one thing, Alan,
we can that we're gonna need to depend on you,

(50:34):
is that as we go through this is to keep
us informed as what'sn't actually needed In other words, like
you were mentioning the bar oil and you know pre
mixed with the oil and all that is to let
us know what we need to collect here. You know,
we were sending everything, but there's gonna be it's gonna
come to a point that there's will be specific since

(50:56):
you need keep us informed, and then we'll we'll see
about get what you need out there.

Speaker 4 (51:01):
I'll tell you and go ahead. I'm sorry, I'm go ahead.
I was I was thinking about this yesterday, and and Carter,
when you sitting here, I want you to listen to
but I was thinking about this yesterday. If you've noticed,
like there's so many different groups out there that like
this group's talking about this, you can go there and
find good information, and this group's talking about this, and
then for us locally, we've got so many different like

(51:23):
we're all a team, like I was telling Scotting earlier,
like we're all working for the same goal. And that
is like we want people pulling into Marshalls right now
bringing items to come fill up this boat and load
up this tent for a trailer to go up there.
But it's not part of South Carolina needs help and
blah blah blah or whatever in my FC's effort. But

(51:44):
we're all doing the same thing. And I'm thinking about
starting a Facebook page that's just that basically generalized, and
so we can all go there, and so Alan can
go on there and say, hey, you know, this is
Alan and whatever, And this is the needs that we
have now and just too so we have one spot,
you know instead like the Sheridan's they have casey uh

(52:07):
started to be done great on y'all's Facebook page, but
not everybody knows to go there, you know what I'm saying.
So if we did a page that that like that
and created it so that we could do that because
you mentioned something, this is not going away next week
or the week after. This is this is going to
continue on and to keep people involved, you're going to
have to keep their attention. You're going to have to

(52:28):
keep their interest up and and and I don't think
there will be I don't think at any point in
time that this crowd down here will stop, will give up.
I think it is. We want to help as much
as we can and as long as we can. And
I'm speaking for everybody. I just I see it in
everybody's eyes and and and from talking to Jason, I

(52:50):
can't wait to tell talk today Adriana, who's coming in.
She's our news reporter that was up there yesterday. You know.
But they're they're seeing the they're seeing what's happening because
of these small efforts that we're putting in on our
end and what the difference is making, and it's only
going to snowball in the continuing to be bigger. And

(53:11):
that's one reason why I beg Carter so hard to
come on here, as like, please, dude, you're gonna touch
somebody if they hear your story, You're gonna touch somebody.
And I think have an alan on here. That's why
it's such It's so key for people to hear that
we can make a difference. You know, you don't watch
the media. We're making a difference. Like every little bit helps,

(53:32):
and that's the thing. If you can donate two toothbrush,
bring them over and drop them off, every little bit
adds up. I watched it happen all day yesterday at MIFC.
I watched cars pull up. One would have two bags,
one would come with three cases of water, one would
come with a back of a truck bed pull up everything.
The next one might come with a cash But it

(53:55):
all makes a difference, and we've just got to keep
bringing it and keep you know, people informed of what's needed.
And with our communication line with you and Fred, I
think that's gonna help a lot. So we will keep it,
we really appreciate it.

Speaker 5 (54:13):
Well, well, look man, do you know we love you?

Speaker 7 (54:16):
Man?

Speaker 10 (54:16):
Then thank you?

Speaker 1 (54:19):
Hey?

Speaker 10 (54:19):
Then then will be then Ben's pretty strong too.

Speaker 9 (54:22):
We'll we we got a little messed up.

Speaker 10 (54:24):
But the other side of.

Speaker 9 (54:25):
The divide, man, the uh you know, the Limvel community
on down on down the river is just absolutely uh,
it's an absolutely catastrophic. So we're gonna continue all our
folk and does not forget Ashville, does not forget Tennessee,
you know, Greenville, South Carolina, Uh, Spartanburg. You know, these
places got hit hard all over, So I know resources

(54:47):
are spread thin, So I'm not gonna be hammering on
you know, uh National Guard or female with the people
that are out.

Speaker 10 (54:53):
There doing what they're doing.

Speaker 9 (54:54):
I'm sure they're working hard and they're doing the best
they can with what they have to work with. But
it's what I want a word I want to say,
is it Mandy? These the local uh people are amazing
and they're doing good work. I don't know how these
zel accounts work and all this stuff, and I will
try to get some information to Captain Fred and Okay,

(55:15):
but we do have Zelli.

Speaker 10 (55:20):
Don't have the count we have had.

Speaker 9 (55:23):
To get my sixteen year old son Cooper to help
me turn.

Speaker 10 (55:25):
My bone on this morning. So I don't know. So
let's see.

Speaker 9 (55:30):
We have these accounts set up for a place called
we Kirk Presbyterian and All Saints Episcopal Mission.

Speaker 10 (55:36):
That's the w E E Kirk ok I r K.

Speaker 9 (56:05):
So you know, we'll we'll send we're sending some stuff

Speaker 6 (59:02):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (59:03):
We are sitting right here in front of Marshalls Marine.
And it may get a little bit louder now that
traffic's picking up, but we're waiting on that traffic to
pick up coming in the parking lot here. We're here
trying to gather some supplies to send up to North Carolina.
Marshalls along with n WTF five Rivers Chapter and a
couple other are putting together a drive and they've got

(59:27):

there with it. But we do have joining us. We

(59:49):
have Carter Sheridan here who has been on with us
earlier and sitting in now back from a short vacation,
very short. Vaca Asian is the one and only shep
Bridge or Floor's act private ship to the Star and Chef,
you went fishing.

Speaker 11 (01:00:09):
One of my favorite types of fishing, and that's surffishing.

Speaker 4 (01:00:13):
Surf fishing. Yeah, but you went somewhere different here.

Speaker 5 (01:00:16):
I went up to the Jersey shore.

Speaker 11 (01:00:17):
My brother owns a place right on the beach, so
I try to take advantage of it at this time
of the year because it's so great. I know you
all aren't into bluefish, but to me, there's nothing more
exciting than knee deep in the surf pulling into ten
pound bluefish. It's just so exciting.

Speaker 4 (01:00:36):
A ten pound bluefish. That's about fifteen of our bluefish.
And just so you know, Adrianna's going bluefish in this afternoon.
She doesn't know it, but that's what we're going after
because we need baper king mackerels Oh wow.

Speaker 11 (01:00:49):
So that's what we're going to catch. It's a lot
of fun. And you know, this is when the striper
run starts. My nephew is fishing with me. He's quite
the striper fisherman. So he walks away from where I'm fishing. Yeah,
you know, and all of a sudden I hear him
yelled to me, Hey, check this out. And he had
a twenty eight inch.

Speaker 4 (01:01:06):
Striper that he pulled in nice.

Speaker 5 (01:01:08):
It was right in the foam.

Speaker 11 (01:01:10):
Can you believe that that's where.

Speaker 4 (01:01:13):
He called it?

Speaker 11 (01:01:14):
Yeah, right in the foam? Yeah, on a Hopkins lure.
Wasn't even casting out, but maybe twenty yards.

Speaker 4 (01:01:19):
Hopkins lower catches anything, doesn't that tell us?

Speaker 12 (01:01:22):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:01:22):
Sir?

Speaker 5 (01:01:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:01:24):
Well what else did you see him there?

Speaker 11 (01:01:26):
It was absolutely amazing. So you were in Jersey, in
New Jersey, right out in front of my brother's house.
See snooky while you was near, I try to avoid
her anyway. Yeah, So all of a sudden, I'm looking
and you know, there's a government.

Speaker 5 (01:01:44):
Truck that goes by.

Speaker 11 (01:01:45):
It's kind of nod and then a front what do
they call that, a front loader.

Speaker 4 (01:01:52):
Bulldozer?

Speaker 11 (01:01:53):
A bulldozer right goes by kind of wave to him nod,
you know. Then all of a sudden, a dump truck
comes by. I said, what the heck.

Speaker 4 (01:02:00):
Is going on?

Speaker 11 (01:02:01):
And I look about fifty yards down the beach and
there's a twelve foot dead whale on the beach.

Speaker 4 (01:02:08):
Wow in New Jersey.

Speaker 11 (01:02:11):
In New Jersey, and my brother came out of the
house that my wife came out, and they walked down
and we all walked down and they're telling us to
back up and everything. And the more we talk to them,
the more we found out this will not be reported.
So my brother said, is there any official that's gonna

(01:02:32):
come and check this out? And they said why, And
they said, well, this is a big event, a dead
whale on the beach.

Speaker 5 (01:02:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:02:42):
And one of the workers there said, this is old news.
This happens all the time. And that's exactly what it is,
that there are so many dead whales ending up on
the beaches in New Jersey that it really has become
old news. And a lot of people will say that
it has to do with those god awful wind windmills

(01:03:04):
that are just off the coast right, but all information
about it has been squashed. Nobody's going to report it.
Nobody's going to see it, wouldn't you. I mean, imagine
a whale came up onto the beach here, oh and
a number of other news crews, not even a reporter there, right.

Speaker 4 (01:03:28):
Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah, So I mean, did you get
I mean, they really think that it had to do
with the windmill.

Speaker 11 (01:03:37):
You know, it's it's the consistent argument that goes on,
but it seems kind of coincidental, well that they put
up hundreds of windmills and all of a sudden, it's
never happened before. You know, ten, fifteen, twenty whales have
washed up on the beach there over the last year
or two.

Speaker 4 (01:03:54):
That's crazy.

Speaker 5 (01:03:56):
You know.

Speaker 4 (01:03:57):
Obviously we're up against Noah with this whale speed limit thing.
Adriana had done a great story on that, several stories
that would basically affect every boat from thirty five foot
in up during the months January till it's either December
or January through May. Ten miles an hour from I

(01:04:23):
think it is eight miles or twelve miles off shore
to seventy eight miles off shore. And I've heard and
that's commercial that would be recreational boats, that would be
cruise liners, that would be everything. And I've heard you
all talk because of well interaction with boats.

Speaker 11 (01:04:39):
Talk about this topic often. How far along is this?
I mean, is there a good.

Speaker 4 (01:04:44):
It's so far along that it is probably very close
to passing. Unfortunately, Yeah, yeah, it's probably close to passing.
And if it happens, like, forget the fishing side of it,
like that's the thing I keep saying, and get his brand.

(01:05:05):
And our good friend from South Carolina Boat and Fishing
Line says, think about the commercial Think about those big
boats that we all think are moving eight miles an hour,
they're moving fifteen plus nods and now they're going to
be pushed down to ten. So it's huge. And the
numbers are three hundred and fifty plus or right around

(01:05:26):
three hundred and fifty of northern right Welsh.

Speaker 3 (01:05:30):
And so.

Speaker 4 (01:05:32):
We falled it as we falled it hard. Everybody's fallowed it,
and unfortunately we'll see what happens hopefully.

Speaker 11 (01:05:39):
Well, this is yet another example of what happens when
big government.

Speaker 4 (01:05:43):
Gets involved, gets involved.

Speaker 11 (01:05:44):
I fled a state that voted for big government all
the time, and I hate to bring politics into this,
but it's a very very important thing, and it's happening
right now in the topic we are talking about for
the first hour, and that is what's happened in North
Carolina specifically. You want to vote for big government, these

(01:06:05):
are the things that happen because when it gets disastrous,
the disaster situation, big government does not help like the
individual does. The bigger the government, the smaller the individual.
And I'm telling you, folks, that's what I fled, My
wife and I fled because guess what. You know what
they have where I came from. They have floods and

(01:06:28):
fires every single year and nothing changes. You're right, and
they don't. They don't have the mentality there that we
have here, which is which is just so phenomenal that
people get together and they solve the problems.

Speaker 4 (01:06:45):
Yep, that's true. The good old that's the good old boy.
That's that's the good old boys. Thank God, my god.
You can't guess what state he came from.

Speaker 7 (01:06:56):
Talk about New Jersey is probably New.

Speaker 4 (01:06:57):
No, No, Hollywood, Hollywood, really California, Yep, yep, yep. And
and I'll say that you know you mentioned that you
saw I'm gonna guess as the week went along, you
saw more and more military aircraft or I mean, I'm

(01:07:18):
gonna guess private sector aircraft right now. Helicopters in particular
are out numbering the military still.

Speaker 7 (01:07:27):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, there's it's a flood of people
going in there.

Speaker 4 (01:07:30):
Man, it's just amazing, Like I really don't want to
bring this up, but I'm going to, and I'm probably
we'll probably get kicked off after this week. But it's
just amazing the resources that are going into an area
south of United States, but yet it can't go in
to help our own people, our own people that there

(01:07:51):
should never There should not have been any hesitation. There
should have been and if I've seen it in social media,
have seen several National Guards women and men putting videos
up please don't be mad at us, like, please don't
be mad at me. I'm trying. We can't do anything
that it doesn't come from above. And I feel bad

(01:08:14):
for them because you know, your your dad is in
the air. Is he still in National foot Guard, State Guard?
State Guard?

Speaker 5 (01:08:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (01:08:22):
I just ranking State Guard out there now.

Speaker 7 (01:08:25):
Isn't he he's up there somewhere. He's up there, but
he's he's an ache. And now they had, of course
they had something go down there with I don't know
what in the world it was with something. I think
it's chemical plan or something else. Yes, with the Yeah,
he was down there and they've been I think he's
still down there. He's probably gonna come back to there tomorrow.
But they're starting to probably gonna bring it backwn here
because they're looking more towards the floods for here. They

(01:08:46):
don't know what it's gonna do with all this water
coming down through the gates and everything. But I know, Santie,
you'll probably get up. I think they're expecting to get
up about twenty three feet or something like that, so
that's obviously gonna take a toll. So I think they're
coming back down here. But they did eventually send uh,
before he got sent out, he sent more of his
groups out up towards Upstate with chainsaws and everything, and
they're they're they're doing a lot of stuff. So they

(01:09:08):
were really they're very very inconsidered or not in considered
considerate people. Uh, when it comes to time, they all
got off work, they all pretty much put theirselves before
anything else and went out there and they started cut
with chainsaws and put theirselves in dangerous places to help
the others. Which is a really good thing.

Speaker 5 (01:09:26):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (01:09:27):
State guards are very good asset to have in a
in a state, and I think everything every every state
should have one, and especially in times like these, it
just shows you just how important it is to have
these little organizations and have these uh kind of people
out there.

Speaker 4 (01:09:38):
No doubt, and and and and you know, it's just
we have some great resources in the South Carolina National
Guard and Air Guard. We do. We have, I mean
incredible And you got to think that most of them
were like, I mean, listen, they trained for this, They
trained for it all year long, every year, and this
is what they want to do. And they're like probably

(01:09:59):
sitting there going why are we not why are we
not up there? Why are we not helping? And and
you know, I did notice that there were some ospreys
involved that showed up and we're doing some stuff which,
by the way, you could never get me in an osprey.
If you google osprey and google accidents, it's like they're
one of the most deadly aircraft in the military. More

(01:10:22):
accidents have happened in an osprey than anything else. But
and then the Chinooks, the black Hawks, and and then
some of those private helicopters were just unbelievable.

Speaker 7 (01:10:34):
Oh yeah, oh yeah. We landed down in Ashville. It
was actually kind of crazy how many of them were running.
I think I almost kind of like sixteen or seventeen
helicopters on the ramp with engines fired up. And it
was just fast as we could get out the plane.
I mean, I knew exactly how much stuff we were
bringing in, and the hangar was going It wasn't even
coming in as fast as it was going out. They
were loading these helicopters up, getting to the fields, dropping down,
you were flying out. You could see them on the

(01:10:54):
ground land in the fields. It was pretty cool little
sight to see. But just as fast as we were
getting it in, it was going out even faster. It
was kind of crazy to me.

Speaker 4 (01:11:02):
And that's and and that's again why we need to
keep awareness and keep promoting this and and keep you know,
pushing it real quick, because I know we've got some
other people show it up. But I want to talk
to you real quick. How does somebody get involved in
How can they can contribute to your group? Do you
do you guys? As far as fuel money goes or

(01:11:22):
as far as supplies, how can they do that?

Speaker 7 (01:11:25):
So on my sister's Facebook page, Casey Sheridan share. There's
a lot of them. You've probably seen it hopping around
a good bit. But at our church, George, my first
simly of God, they are accepting donations. They are accepting
not just personal donations. They're accepting like clothes, money, food,
anything you want to donate, anything you feel to donate,
they'll take it. You can organize with her or the church.

(01:11:48):
I'm not sure the hours is open because I've been
on the other side of the spectrum, but there's you
can donate that way. But there's also a GoFundMe going
around with not just uh my pilot group, but there's
a bigger pilot group. I think it's called the acron
Imports DEMI. But they're out of Charleston and they're still
flying even when we're not flying. They're flying someone's flying,

(01:12:08):
and they're covering the fuel and so they got a
lot more planes than pilots down there too. So you
can donate either other way to anything helps going up there.
And fuel is expensive. It's almost five dollars and fifty
cent a gallon around here on the East coast, but
up there in ash For right now, I think it's
going on board the ends of eight gallons or eight
dollars a gallon, so you can see just how quickly
that goes by, right, But mainly the donations are really needed.

(01:12:34):
Right now, they're starting to really skimp low. But I
think we're gonna start turning our attention to go into
smaller airports that aren't getting the attention. We're running pretty
much off a request stuff.

Speaker 5 (01:12:43):
Now.

Speaker 7 (01:12:44):
We've getting a lot of random requests of this family's here,
this family is here, this family is here, can you
get anything? And when we get on the ground, a
lot of times I'll ask us it does this go
to specific family? And at the moment we haven't been
doing that besides one once or twice with some people.
But if you have any request of people, you know,
anybody want to check on, anybody, you want supplies to

(01:13:05):
go to, you can pretty much tell us that and
we can get exactly where it needs to go.

Speaker 9 (01:13:10):
H oh.

Speaker 7 (01:13:10):
We needs an address and airfield and a name, and
we can get it where it needs to go.

Speaker 4 (01:13:13):
Yeah, I saw your sister put that on there, and
that's a great idea of a wonderful option. But like I,
like I said before, dude, Like I know I'm speaking.
I don't even have to speak for your uncle. I
know how proud he is of you. But I have
texted you multiple times how proud I am of you,
because I can remember. I can remember Tony, remember him

(01:13:34):
sitting in here at one of the flounder seminars. What
was he probably about fourteen fifteen and he won a
cooler did he win? Yeah, one of the biggest thing here,
one of the big nice yetty, Yeah, man, But man,
you've done great things. Continue to do great things, continue
to work for God. And dude again, you're setting a

(01:13:55):
great example for others at twenty two years old.

Speaker 8 (01:13:58):
Thank you God.

Speaker 4 (01:13:59):
Yeah, thank you, and you mom and your dad and
your sisters for everything you do in it. And your
aunt Shannon just told me you're doing a great job
radio and she said tell you, hey, and she loves you.

Speaker 7 (01:14:10):
Hey.

Speaker 4 (01:14:11):
I got to tell you. That's why I don't get
hit over the head when I get home. Yeah, And
I'm going to speak for you because we got to
mention that girlfriend that you mentioned is back working at
our favorite tackle store down here, Paulie's Island Outdoors.

Speaker 7 (01:14:24):
Let's see him.

Speaker 4 (01:14:25):
So go see her and she'll get you straight. And
trust me, once you start talking to her, you won't
want to stop because you just want to hear that voice.

Speaker 7 (01:14:32):
As for the shortest blond girl you can find, yep.

Speaker 4 (01:14:34):
Just look for Shorty. Look for Shorty when you go
in there. But yeah, hey, by the way, Pauli's Island Outdoors,
thank you guys for listening. And I'm gonna got I
got to give a fishing report. We do have to
talk fishing real quick. South Street and fishing report, Chip Bull,
thank you so much, our good friend from Rovers Parks, Toyota.
He said, if you want to catch a tarpin, go
right now to Georgetown and go. He hooked and lost

(01:14:58):
quite a few the other day. Did not land one
you ever called a tarbin? Okay? I finally caught one
last year, So it's not like they're easy to catch, okay,
But he said, the numbers are incredible. There's so much
bait out there that that that it's time to go.
So your South Stray report has brought Paul's Island Outdoors.
And I wasn't trying to kick you off, and you

(01:15:19):
don't have to take the mic off yet, but I
want to get you since shiff put his down, Adriana,
you grabbed his right. Now go ahead and get it on.
And now I can officially introduce you to Adriana Lawrence
Carter Sheridan.

Speaker 2 (01:15:32):
Hello, how would you say?

Speaker 4 (01:15:38):
And for all our listeners out there, you know Adriana,
she's our w bt W news reporter that that we.

Speaker 2 (01:15:45):
Have adopted friends.

Speaker 4 (01:15:47):
We've been fortunate enough to adopt her, and.

Speaker 2 (01:15:51):
I'm the fortunate one.

Speaker 4 (01:15:52):
Well, guys, I'll tell you what I was. I was
second guessing that on Wednesday? Was it Wednesday? Thursday? I
was second guessing after here, And you know, she was
so excited to go. She got We got her to go.
We got her on board with a group from sc
need TAILP I believe, with those guys with kJ Jordan

(01:16:13):
and now and they made it to Florence and got
onto interstate and blew the first.

Speaker 13 (01:16:20):
We blew, so the tire came off off, tire came
offire came off. We sat there for two hours on
the side of the highway, then for like two hours
and then we put another tire on. And then I'm
not kidding you, we got two minutes down the road,
like a mile down the road.

Speaker 2 (01:16:36):
The tire completely blew.

Speaker 13 (01:16:38):
The axle was like bent and we were like, yep,
the trailer's done. We're gonna need to switch out find something.
So Bradley Parker brought up a U haul for us.
We met at Black's Tire. Shout out to those guys
because they didn't charge us a dime for anything.

Speaker 2 (01:16:52):
They helped us. Once we got to Blacks Tire, moved
all the supplies.

Speaker 13 (01:16:54):
From the U haul or from the trailer to the
U haul and just did it from the kindness of
their own heart. It was It was incredible seeing the
community and that was just the beginning. Well, you know,
we didn't even make it out there yet and that
was just the very beginning.

Speaker 4 (01:17:06):
Well, you're not putting in a very good resume for
more people to go with.

Speaker 2 (01:17:10):
Hey, I think we experienced the worst.

Speaker 8 (01:17:13):
Well maybe you've got all the bad look out the wait.

Speaker 2 (01:17:15):
For everywhere you go. I mean after that, it was
smooth sound you had.

Speaker 4 (01:17:18):
A cameraman with you as well? Did you take one?

Speaker 5 (01:17:20):
Yes? Yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:17:21):
They they wanted my Yeah, my bosses, they wanted someone
to be there with me. So just to have you know,
another colleague there, another support for me. So he came
up there with me, and I was so happy to
have him because, I mean, just the storytelling that we
did nine interviews, the amount of people we were able
to meet, I mean, through all the devastation, it really
shows you that there is still humanity out there. There

(01:17:42):
is still such a huge community out there. And one
woman told me, you know this county, in this county,
they're always been separated, but in this time of need,
that didn't matter, you know, because what does that matter
if none of you were there. So the whole community
came together and it was incredible just talking so many
different people meeting and you know, we're doing a big
thing that this upcoming week on you know, different stories

(01:18:04):
and trying to showcase this as best as we can,
because I mean, there's hard stuff going up there. It
needs to be it needs to be told.

Speaker 4 (01:18:11):
So let's talk about where you were.

Speaker 13 (01:18:13):
Yeah, so we were. We were in Lake Leure, we
were in Hendersonville. Well, we started the morning in Hendersonville.
We went to like a hospice nursing facility and those
people when we got there, we got there at like
eight fifteen. There were patients, you know, senior elder patients
that were there. Both at the facility and you know,
stuck in their homes who didn't want to leave. And

(01:18:36):
these people, I mean the workers were just crying. They
were so appreciative of us, of us bringing those supplies.
So we were there for a while and then we
went up to Lake Leure.

Speaker 2 (01:18:47):
We went to this church. It was so random, this church.
He had like no no supplies there whatsoever.

Speaker 13 (01:18:54):
He wanted to you know, give out to people, and
he had nothing, and we happened to find him and
meet him, and it happened to be the church that
kJ and Christy you to go to when they were younger.
It was crazy how it worked out. But we gave
him like a bunch of supplies, a bunch of money,
and he was, i mean just tearing up about how
happy it was.

Speaker 2 (01:19:12):
He drove us in.

Speaker 13 (01:19:13):
His ATV all over the place showing us, you know,
some of the damage Lake Lure.

Speaker 2 (01:19:18):
I mean it was when you got down to the beach.

Speaker 13 (01:19:21):
Of Lake Lewre it was like devastating just seeing it
looks like a bomb went off in the lake, like
where people would go in vacation and have fun and stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:19:32):
It was just brush.

Speaker 13 (01:19:34):
It was horrible. So but and there was police personnel.
We saw military helicopters and they were basically saying that
they were keeping people over here because there was just
so much devastation on the other side of the lake.
But and then later on talked to a woman who
she had set up a supply stand there and she

(01:19:55):
was in tears. We did an interview with her. I mean,
it was so moving talking to her, her and her daughter.

Speaker 2 (01:20:02):
And then we ended up.

Speaker 13 (01:20:03):
At the distribution site where everything from Myrtle Beach, Neil
and Pam's Creek house. We got to see, Okay, this
is where you guys have donated here, this is where
it was coming.

Speaker 2 (01:20:14):
These are all the supplies and there was a ton
of Myrtle Beach.

Speaker 4 (01:20:16):
Met actually where Milania Trump was earlier in the week.

Speaker 13 (01:20:21):
I think it was in Bill's Creek. Wasn't it okay?
Because I heard them talking about that.

Speaker 4 (01:20:25):
Yep, she was there. They the first truck got there,
and shortly after they had delivered Milania Trump showed up
at that location there, but she.

Speaker 2 (01:20:37):
Brought a bunch of starlinks and stuff. They had a
starlink there.

Speaker 4 (01:20:40):
So I think I think Elon and and Donald did
some stuff together, is what I was told. I don't
know that you may have heard through the through the
pilot grape mind. I don't know, but I know they
did some stuff together. They had a bunch of starlinks
to people from what's out there. Starlink has been a
saving grace or a lot of those them up there.

(01:21:04):
You know, little things that we take that we we love,
we would love to have on our boat, all of
us would love to have on our boat. And now
it's you know, yeah, I heard. I heard there were
a lot dropped off and and and they put them
in areas where they were, you know, able to be used.
And then I heard was it Chevy and and was
it whoever has the starlink on their vehicles? They opened

(01:21:28):
it up where you're not you could use it and
not pay for it, like the you know, the system
in the truck, so they could use that and different things.
But I'm glad you got to see it. I'm glad
you got to go. I know you were nervous, like
we were texting the day before. I know you were
a little nervous about what you might see and everything else. Yeah,
I was like, it worse than what you'd planned for.

Speaker 13 (01:21:48):
No, And I think that's the thing that I took
away from all of it, and people up there going
up there should know, is like there are so many
roads closed, like the worst of the worst of the devastation,
like rock completely gone, there's black mountains wanna Noah, Like
you can't get up there because the roads are blocked off.
The officials like they're up there, you can't get up there.

(01:22:08):
And so we didn't see that bad of damage in
the areas we were in, but I mean, just hearing
from the people, you could tell obviously the devastation is there.
But I think another thing is like they have already
so much supplies and it's really up to the people
in those areas to take it and bring it up
to the people up in those mountains and stuff. But
with that, it's like you can only get up there

(01:22:30):
in four wheelers. So it's really up to the local
communities up there who know that area well to get
it up to the people in those mountains. Because there's
so many people that I heard that just don't want
to leave their homes. Yea, even though their homes are
completely gone devastated.

Speaker 2 (01:22:45):
I get it.

Speaker 13 (01:22:46):
They don't want to leave. They don't care, and they're
like just bring the supplies to us, drop off the supplies.
So I think at this point, you know, just keep
bringing the supplies. But it's really up to those local
communities who know the area to get it up, get
it in the different spot, and you know officials, military
police officials.

Speaker 2 (01:23:03):
To get it up there.

Speaker 4 (01:23:04):
So I think the story about all the mule groups,
now have you seen that those are incredible, Like some
of that terrain they're putting up that they're going over,
that's the only way they can go. Yeah, you can't ATVs.
Nothing is going to get through there. Yeah. Well, I mean, well,

(01:23:24):
I know, I know there was a lot that touched you,
and I don't want to your story has not come
out yet. Yeah, so we don't want to get too
much because you got to keep your real job. But
of everything you saw, what probably leads the biggest impression, I.

Speaker 2 (01:23:41):
Think, honestly just talking to.

Speaker 13 (01:23:45):
Talking to the people that lived there, Like the lady
that I talked about that was you know, she was
on the she's on the side of the road. She
was giving out supplies and stuff. Even though you know
she's like, we haven't gone through the worst of the worst.
We lost our power. She's like, but I still have
like all eight of my grandkids, Like, you know, everyone's okay,
but she's like, I've heard this story, this story, these
people dying, you know, these people have gone missing, and

(01:24:08):
it's like through.

Speaker 2 (01:24:08):
All that, they still have the drive.

Speaker 13 (01:24:12):
To get up and be there for their community, their neighborhoods.
And I think what really left an impression on me
was just how this community couldches band together and how
appreciative they are of all the supplies that are coming in.
I think that's really just what warms my heart and
again there is still humanity out there, and for me,
I think it's just so important through the stories coming

(01:24:34):
up this week, that we were able to capture yesterday,
especially from a local point of view, was that hey,
all the Myrtle Beach community, you guys donated all these things.
Let us show you where your donations are going and
how it's really impacted the people. You're gonna hear from
the people who were actually being impacted by this and
continue to donate.

Speaker 2 (01:24:55):
They still need this.

Speaker 13 (01:24:56):
This is gonna be something that is months, years, everlasting
and is going to be a forever impact.

Speaker 4 (01:25:01):
On these you know, I know you guys can pull
from other stations for reports and everything else. But I
just think it's so much more genuine. I think it's
going to be so much more well received that you
actually made the effort and took the effort in time
to go up there. Absolutely you agree, I mean Fred
agrees with me like it. I think it completely makes
a big difference that you yourself went to report on it.

Speaker 6 (01:25:23):
She's got she's got means to get the word out.
And also in the future as to you know what
it is are on this ongoing thing that Alan was
talking about that it's isn't gonna stop this week, and
the media tends to do the exciting stuff and then disappear.
But uh, this guy right here, I thinks will keep
the folks on where it needs to be.

Speaker 4 (01:25:44):
Yep, absolutely well and in the.

Speaker 2 (01:25:47):
Myrtle Beach community too though, because getting together.

Speaker 4 (01:25:50):
And that and with that, I want to ship gears.
I want you stay right there until Jason comes out.
But I want to ship gears to our other guest
who's here, and that is Chris Wilson of n w
t F five Rivers chapter. Real quick, Do you know
Carter Sheridan. Have you ever met Carter? Well, this is
Carter Sheridan Carter. Carter is Tony's nephew and a pilot

(01:26:14):
that's been flying in and out of North Carolina every day. Well, here,
we'll put that over there. You didn't have to take
the mic off, by the way, but Chris has spearheaded
this effort here, and we're gonna talk a little bit
about that, the pund raising that we're doing here at Marshall's.
And you've got a good pilot stuff in there, just

(01:26:36):
in case you didn't know. But let's talk about that.
Where where can somebody contribute the next couple days, because

We've also started Amazon wish list.

Speaker 4 (01:27:21):
That is pretty cool. Let's talk about that, you and I. Yes,
we need to talk about that.

Speaker 12 (01:27:26):
I got a good friend of mine. It's in the
Turkey call business, and he is boots on the ground
and some of the worst areas up there right now.
They're taking trailers every day. Actually, he texts me on
the way here. They're on the way up now with
six enclosed trailers full. He is sending me updated items
every day as he gets service to let me know

(01:27:48):
what's on to put on the list.

Speaker 5 (01:27:50):
What's their destination.

Speaker 12 (01:27:53):
They are out of North Wiltsboro, but yeah, north Wiltsboro,
that's that's been.

Speaker 4 (01:27:58):
That's been like I think, a big hub right now.

Speaker 12 (01:28:01):
It's a big hub where they're they're traveling into Black Mountain,
Chimney Raw all that there. They're tied in on one
of the horseback groups and uh as well as they're
houlding a bunch of UTVs and four wheelers and all
that stuff in the day to get into more of
the area that hadn't been touched yet.

Speaker 5 (01:28:19):
Right.

Speaker 12 (01:28:21):
Yeah, they have a clearance somehow they got a clearance.

You did here on horseback, Yes, I mean that's the
stuff is I mean, these people hadn't been touched.

Speaker 5 (01:28:35):

Week and we're bringing in four wheelers and horseback to
get stuff into people that hadn't been seen yet.

Speaker 12 (01:28:47):
Yeah, that's coral.

Speaker 4 (01:28:48):

going to.

Speaker 12 (01:29:32):
We got we got three truckloads. One's gonna actually be
going to Hickory, North Carolina. One's going to North Wilkesboro.
And I've been in contact with a Baptist church in.

Speaker 12 (01:29:45):
I'm gonna I'm gonna probably take the Spartanburg load and
see where we're at from there, and I may end
up going coming back through Hickory in North Wilkesboro. The
guy is telling me in Spartanburg they really hadn't got
a whole on that end, and what they don't use
they will physically transport into Ashville.

Speaker 4 (01:30:05):
You know, I hope we're not. I hope we're not
overlooking our own you know that in the upstate. I
hope we're not overlooking going past them. But I do
realize that it's way worse up there.

Speaker 6 (01:30:16):
A bloody of mine hadn't had power in Greenville until
yesterday morning, and a power crew from French Canadians reconnected
them into the system.

Speaker 4 (01:30:29):
So there's a ton of Canadian power to electric groups
up there. I heard that's good.

Speaker 5 (01:30:38):
He was happy.

Speaker 6 (01:30:39):
Believe me, they'd gone eight days without power in Greenville.
You know, we're all talking about the mountains, but just
in the upstate, and I saw the numbers the other day.

Speaker 5 (01:30:49):
It was amazing. I mean, people still don't have any
juice up there.

Speaker 13 (01:30:52):
South Carolina, South Carolina. Like I was looking at the
numbers when all this was going on, South Carolina had
like the top most people who were without power. Then
I think second was either Georgia or North Carolina.

Speaker 2 (01:31:03):
But South Carolina had over like a million people.

Speaker 4 (01:31:05):
Yeah, it was It's crazy, and I did have I mean,
I've heard people's requests that are in South Carolina for stuff,
and I believe some was being distributed there. But it
does seem that the devastation is far greater as far

(01:31:27):
as long range, long term sorry, long term.

Speaker 5 (01:31:30):
The thing is, if they chose to, they could leave.
That's advantage.

Speaker 4 (01:31:35):
Yeah, there's no choice up there.

Speaker 6 (01:31:37):
Yeah, I mean they could come to the beach, you
know what I mean. But the people we've been talking
about up in the upper mountains, they don't have that option.

Speaker 5 (01:31:45):
You know.

Speaker 13 (01:31:46):
Well, what's really scary to think about, and what I
heard from a lot of people yesterday was they got
and I think we all know this.

Speaker 2 (01:31:51):
They got no warning.

Speaker 13 (01:31:53):
You know, this was five in the morning where they
maybe got some word about the Lake Louire damn that
was gonna potentially give out or whatever. Yeah, and so
there were some people that evacuate it, but there was
others in the mountains where they weren't leaving. There were
so many people, like I said, who were in their homes.
They don't want to leave. What do you do at
five in the morning, when water is rushing to your

(01:32:14):
home and you're asleep. What is there to do at
that point, There's nothing to do and you're stuck.

Speaker 12 (01:32:20):
And who would have ever thought that this what happened
in the mountains exactly?

Speaker 13 (01:32:24):
They so many people said like, oh, you guys are
used to this. You prepare on the coast through these hurricanes,
like we even Debbie and Helene just now we got
not that big of an impact, but we still prepared.
You know, we did what we had to do because
we prepare for the worst like we do on the coast. YEP,
there's no flood insurance up there, Like they don't get
this type of flooding that we do down here.

Speaker 2 (01:32:45):
It's not it's like in you can't even fathom it,
you know.

Speaker 4 (01:32:50):
So, and and and if you just think about the
Black River flood, the what was that called the hundred
year flood, and and the almost slapping the face sarcastic
money that FEMA was not so kind enough to hand out,
that these homeowners that lost everything here, it's gonna be

(01:33:10):
the same way up there.

Speaker 12 (01:33:11):
Oh yeah, without a doubt. I mean it's crazy. I
mean I don't even want to get into it because
I get so fired up them.

Speaker 4 (01:33:16):
Oh I know, you do, you.

Speaker 12 (01:33:17):
Know, just like you were saying earlier, it's the good
old boys that's gonna bring these people through. It's not
our government. Our government is terrible.

Speaker 4 (01:33:25):
No, you're right, you're right. It's it's it's terrible. And
and to sit here, you know, you're I'm glad you're
getting there, getting to go by me. I feel I
feel like an outcast because you've been there. Now, she's
been there, He's been there, yeah couple of times.

Speaker 6 (01:33:39):
Yeah, but you're doing your part on this end. But
I'm gonna tell you something, Christian army has got power
yep that the federal government has never imagined. And that's
what you're seeing going on. No, there's no doubt about it.
I mean, listen, this is a wonderful thing about the Gator.

Speaker 4 (01:33:57):
By the way, we can talk about God, and I
know that God that's having a has a huge hand
in what's going on there. Absolutely we all know that.
I mean anybody that doesn't know that, I hope that
they get assistance. But every single person at this table here,
Jason inside, I wish you'd get out here before we
run out of time, because Jason really got touched and

(01:34:21):
I mean his excitement just yesterday looking at me and
seeing my eyes watching everybody just pulling up NonStop yesterday,
the MFC dropping stuff off. It was just one car
after another. And he tapped me on the shoulder. You
glad you came up here, or you glad you came
up here? Like, yeah, man, but help me get this
case of water. But it's just unbelievable. We live in

(01:34:44):
a wonderful place. We are full of incredible people here,
and we all have differences. We all have difference of
opinions on different things. But it's amazing that a tragedy
like this has once again brought us all together. And
you can go back to nine to eleven and think
about what it did. But it's once again brought us

(01:35:07):
all together. And man, we're strong people. And our friends
in western North Carolina are just incredible. And most of
them that lived there chose to live there. They you know,
and there's a reason they wanted to live there. And
they're they're badasses. I'm sorry, Can I say it like that?
They are? They are, They're going to get through it.

(01:35:27):
But look here we go, look at a truckload of stuff.
Oh and those are important. I'll say that. The diapers
are that. That's on the list of They.

Speaker 13 (01:35:39):
Were telling me they need baby formula, cleaning supplies, diapers,
like anything when it comes to like babies.

Speaker 4 (01:35:46):
And the charcoal, yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:35:48):
Charcoal, clothes especially, definitely a lot of clothes.

Speaker 2 (01:35:51):
People lost all that.

Speaker 12 (01:35:53):
So yeah, I know on Tuesday had a guy contact me.
He's got and new and slightly used. He has twenty
fifty gallon black trash bags full of clothes that'll be
going with us.

Speaker 4 (01:36:08):
And the clothes this week and going forward are gonna
become important too. And like Jason said yesterday in our podcast,
a lot of these people have clothes they can't get
to them. They got brought you know, if they got
rescued and we're taken away from their home, they can't
get back to them. So that's where you know the importance.

(01:36:30):
And then you've got so many homes that were just, oh,
without a doubt, destroy it.

Speaker 12 (01:36:34):
Another thing too, for people just looking at donating, I've
been seeing this a lot.

Speaker 7 (01:36:37):
Uh.

Speaker 12 (01:36:38):
The weather is supposed to change up there pretty quick.
It's gonna start cooling off. So these folks are gonna
need some long sleeve blankets, sleeping bags, all that good stuff.
So also think about that when you're you know, if
you're gonna donate, absolutely.

Speaker 4 (01:36:53):
I wish we could sneak Jason out here, but I
guess I'm gonna go ahead and write him off. I
guess he's busy in there, so we'll we'll just keep
talking once again to get in touch with y'all, and
your drop off points again are here, Marshall's Lake City,
the first Baptist.

Speaker 12 (01:37:07):
Church in Andrews or Magic Hands in.

Speaker 4 (01:37:11):
And Magic Hands, that's you.

Speaker 12 (01:37:12):
You can contact me at eight four three four eight
five six four one seven and I'll be more than
happy to meet you. We will be loading here at
Marshall's Monday after lunch, So if you want to make
a donation, get here before Monday at lunch. Okay, And
I'm about one hundred and ten percent sure we're gonna

(01:37:33):
do another load. We're gonna just see where we're at
after this one, and we'll roll on with another one.
And we're going to try to get to some more
drop points other than the three that we're going through
right now, unless they need more at these drop points
that we're going to on Tuesday.

Speaker 4 (01:37:48):
And this is another thing we were talking about, and
Carter mentioned it earlier, is that we're all working for
the common goal. And if you end up with stuff
and don't have a truck going and need to get it,
you let us know. We can come get it, get
it down there to the inlet and get it in
one of those conboys. Carter loaded in another airplane the

(01:38:08):
other last night, was it the night before one night,
loaded and loaded an extra plane that was going back.
The guy said, Hey, I want to take stuff with
me that was flying up there.

Speaker 6 (01:38:18):
But okay, thank you, well we got five minutes.

Speaker 4 (01:38:22):
Good. But the common goal is we're all working for
the same thing, and if we work together, it works
a lot better. And you know, again. This one over
here has been He didn't want to do a TV interview,
didn't want to come on the radio. We changed his
mind and he did good. But I told him, I said,

(01:38:42):
you got to think about it. You're not doing it
to promote Carter Sheridan because you don't need to. You're
doing it to promote what we're all doing and the
big picture. And you're and hoping that somebody listening to
the show or watching her on news gets touched by
it and says, hey, I want to get involved. Yep,

(01:39:05):
because it it it. Every little bit is what we need.
We need every everybody to help. And it's not it's
not short term. This is gonna last a while. We're
gonna be We're gonna be doing this for a while.
You were gonna you're gonna be flying a lot of hours.

Speaker 7 (01:39:21):
Yeah, probably probably. We still there's still places untouched. We're
still looking at more airports. We're get more airports to
day and day, and they're actually starting to get these
airports cleared off too, which is a big thing.

Speaker 10 (01:39:30):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (01:39:31):
One of the biggest things we're concerned about was actually
bringing bigger aircraft in there. When you see them roads
and stuff that were actually get washed out and they
sat down like that, and we're like laying twenty thousand
pounds on. It's not gonna be pretty if it ends
up doing that. So now everything's starting dry out. We're
looking to try and get in. But the biggest thing
I can say is that you were saying earlier, I
feel like an outcast not doing anything. But really, if
you didn't do something, I wouldn't be able to do

(01:39:52):
nothing neither, and the people on the ground down they
wouldn't be able to do nothing neither. So everybody has
their own little niche to get this whole operation running
to be this mood lubricated machine. So it's just the
people promoting it to the people that are donating it,
don't matter what it is. It's the people that get
the stuff bagged and weah and put in trailers to
get to airplanes to get to trucks and people that
are donating trucks to get not without one person and

(01:40:14):
that nothing would work. So it's everybody can joined effort.

Speaker 13 (01:40:17):
And I think that's a good point because I feel
like there is a lot of people in this like
you see on social media, that are overwhelmed. It's like,
how do I help? I want to help, but how
do I help? And it's literally like look up on
social media, talk to your friends, look at the businesses
restaurant in this area. I can't tell you how many
businesses and restaurant. It's like it's everyone that are collecting donations.
Like look that up and find one and take your

(01:40:39):
donations there, and then those guys will do the rest
of the job for you. Like, if you want someplace
to start, start there, just donate, donate money, donate supplies,
whatever you need, and then it'll get done from there.

Speaker 2 (01:40:50):
People will get it where it needs to go.

Speaker 4 (01:40:52):
Think of a Facebook page name because I mentioned this
and everybody seems to kind of agree, but think of
a Facebook page name that we can start and do that.
It'll be just I mean basically just you know, it'll
concerning Georgetown to Little River operations. Yeah, operations, but there

(01:41:13):
we can all communicate together and like Alan can go
on there and say, hey, y'all, we're seeing a bigger
need for this, and we're seeing a bigger need for this.
But yet it's not you know, it's for all of
us to use where because I mean, like again, his
sister has done a great job. And if you go there,

(01:41:34):
you can see all the information. But not everybody can
go there, Like, not everybody's going to find it. But
at least if we did something like this and put
it out there where it's all encompassing and everybody's together
in there, and I think it'll I think it'll help
in communication, you know, one minute, one minute? All right,
Well listen, thank you guys. And Jason's inside. He must

(01:41:56):
be looking at another boat. I mean, there's no telling
with Jason, he's probably in there looking at the boat.
Real quick, fishing report, Yeah, pray and grab that. Let's talk.
Let's talk fishing real quick. The the beach bite along
the coast is on fire. The mullet runs going on
tarping down south. We already talked about that. I know

(01:42:17):
there's a lot of King Michael and Spanish micro being
caught right on the beach.

Speaker 6 (01:42:23):
One thing I want to say is that I know
you guys tuned in for the fishing show, and we
didn't do much fishing show today, no, but we appreciate
you listening. And he don't ever feel bad that you
don't do your part. You definitely do getting the word
out well.

Speaker 4 (01:42:39):
Real quick. I'm going to say this because you're normally
the one that gets on me about not being a
fishing show when I'm not a fishing show. But I
will say that this week we all stand together and
it's okay if we don't talk fishing.

Speaker 6 (01:42:52):
Correct And this is just so much more important than fishing, guys.

Speaker 5 (01:42:56):
Ye, so we you know, get involved.

Speaker 4 (01:42:59):
Man.

Speaker 6 (01:42:59):
There's plenty ways to do it. And you know he
is up to his ears and this stuff. He may
not be driving a truck, but good points you were
making that we all have our part in the chain.

Speaker 4 (01:43:11):
Well, I'm gonna try and do everything I can. My
little man's got to go surgery on month on Monday,
and if he's doing good by Wednesday or Thursday, I'm
I'm I'm, I'm going to the mountains. I mean, I
love it up there. This time of the year, it
doesn't get any better. But if I can go up
there and make a difference, and if nothing else, me

(01:43:33):
and Tonio go up there and put oil in chainsaws
for somebody to use, or or change the blades on him,
or do something. But I want to get up there
and and help in some way, shape or form. So
but it's just again our community here. It just incredible.
Everybody's just been incredible. And the cars are pulling up

(01:43:55):
now delivering stuff here for Chris to load up his
trailer and get them up there as well.

a pleasure to hang out with you. Jason Burton, I
know you're in there buying a boat, but thank you
for driving down here. Sor are you? And he brought
the kids, Jenna, he had to bring both kids with
him and Chef. I'm sorry Chef had to go spend
a little time at the at the other studio at
Pond Road Storage before he realized we were down here

(01:44:48):
because he doesn't read his text messages very well. But anyway,
and Tony the bast master, Carter, you are the quickest
setter upper I've ever met. Today was our the fastest
we have ever set up. I think for the radio show.
He did a good job. He did a great job.
