How you doing.

Speaker 5 (01:22):
I'm great. I'm happy to be here on a Monday.

Speaker 4 (01:24):
It's good to see you on a Monday or any day.
This is the very first time that you and I

hang out with deb when I'm gone. But now the
tables have turned.

Speaker 5 (01:32):
I know, I'm a little nervous. You should be a
little nervous.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
You should being very gassy today.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
I'm just gonna get a hands up. Yeah, I'm sorry. Yeah, great.
And I don't burst my teeth on Mondays, so it's
a double bad day when I invite our guests. And
so he's good to be It's like, okay, well, which
one is out?

Speaker 5 (01:48):
Yeah, that's all we ask is it.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
For deb Yeah, it's so funny because Jack just came
back from a cruise. I came back from a cruise
last week and then immediately got sick, like three days
straight up on my back. And then Jack comes back
and you can hear it in his boys, same thing happened.
But did your just hit you? Why you were actually
on the boat.

Speaker 4 (02:04):
Oh, let's call this instant karma. Because on Tuesday, I
was in the Elunke rainforest of Puerto Rico. Okay, very nice.
I go there all the time and k Rowlins text me. Okay,
you know, first lady of soccer, k Rowlins. She texted

(02:24):
me and she said, you know, are you guys off.
I'm like, well, Jim is sick. You know, I'm on vacation.
Jim is sick today. So they put on the best
stuff and uh, you know, thirty minutes goes by and
she texts me like is it serious. I'm like, no,
you just have a cold. But she was worried. I

(02:44):
figured I'd make light of it.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Yeah, she didn't bring me any soup or anything.

Speaker 4 (02:47):
Now, I figured i'd make light of it. I'll text
her and let's see what did I write to her.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
Oh yeah, I bet it was awful.

Speaker 4 (02:54):
Jack hates me, by the way, did you know this
about us?

Speaker 6 (02:58):
He's not a fan.

Speaker 4 (02:59):
So yeah, it's like I'm on vacation. Oh now you
get sick whatever, So I it was an immediate conspiracy.
It's just a cold. And then I wrote and I'm like,
I'll regret this. He is a weak, weak man. Brought
a call back from his vacation. Really probably an attempt
to make my vacation more exciting. And then that afternoon,

(03:23):
thirty minutes later, I feel a scratch in my throat
like that son of a bitch got yeah, son of
a bitch. Yeah, I wasn't he. I was still in
San Juan.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
And I'm like, I saw your pictures, so it looks
like you guys had a good ass time.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
Man.

Speaker 4 (03:35):
I didn't let it stop me. Yeah, you can't, burbon man.
You guys were in the ocean. You guys were dancing, crafting,
walking around. It was great, man.

Speaker 3 (03:43):
Your photographs were awesome.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
This was you know what's funny. A lot of people
have said that, and I haven't. I haven't posted anything
yet because I was going to wait till I got back.
And then you know, you just unpacked and I start
working and I haven't done it yet, but my wife
and my daughters have been posting, and so I've been
seeing them on social media. You know it's like, oh,
look at that. I didn't even know those pictures, right,
But I.

Speaker 5 (04:04):
Don't remember doing that, right.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
It was a true family vacation because all five of us.
My oldest daughter, Alana, she is a singer on the
Holland America Zyderdam is this ship we were on. Yes,
she sings in the rock band in the Rolling Stone
Lounge and you know, she's a vocalist in that band.
So me and my wife and other two daughters we
were all on the ship together for a week and

(04:28):
it was absolutely fantastic.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
Was the last time you did something with the entire
crew like that? It's been a minute ten years?

Speaker 7 (04:34):
Wow?

Speaker 4 (04:34):
Yeah, goodness, Yeah, it looks like you guys are having
a blast though. Man, it was so much fun that
a ship. The ship is great. It's a smaller one.
They only hold about two thousand. Okay, it's twenty years old.
It's been referred to a couple of times, but it
was lovely. The first time on a Holland America cruise
line and that was fun. May do it again. My
daughter already has a contract. She's going on the Rotterdam next.

(04:58):
You know, any time you hear ship's name, if it
ends in Dam, it's Holland America. I did not know that. Yeah, yeah, Zyderdam, Voldam, Rotterdam.
They all ended in dam. That's the hot Damn. That's
their party by Yeah, Ki is the captain of that one.
I don't know if you know that.

Speaker 5 (05:15):
I have the most important question though, what's right? How
is the weather?

Speaker 6 (05:19):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (05:19):
Yeah, no joke. Weather so interesting? It was cool going
into it. We look, oh, the day we're in Puerto Rico,
ninety percent chance of rain or ninety percent coverage. Oh
the day we're in Saint Thomas, one hundred percent coverage.
Weather was nearly perfect throughout. We drove through a rainstorm

(05:40):
in San Juan and that was it. That's crazy, and
that was it. That tropical those systems more so, it's
like up north when it rains, it rains all day
all right. Down in Florida, were used to afternoon thunderstorms
and then it moves out there.

Speaker 3 (05:52):
You go play golf, sure, yea, yeah, do whatever you want.

Speaker 4 (05:55):
But in the Caribbean and Amy you can probably speak
to this, and you even do a profession. It's the story.
They're different. They just seem to be more isolated and
quickly moving well.

Speaker 5 (06:07):
And also the cruise captains know this, right, so they're
going to go around the rain or they're going to
try to be at sea on your day.

Speaker 4 (06:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (06:14):
But also it's a really good lesson that you don't
believe the weather of apps.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
Yeah yeah, what correct, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (06:20):
Just a computer model, it's not a person. Yeah, And
it's just yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
And I lean on that a lot because one of
the things I did when we went same thing, I
was like, Okay, what's the Caribbean look like? And I
literally just because I mean really, the funny thing is
you're in the Caribbean. When you look at it on
a map, you're really in a relatively small circle. The
ships don't go that far out of a certain triangle
kind of circle area. And it said the same thing
Jack was saying, like we were supposed to get rain
almost the entire week and we never got it, not

(06:45):
even a drop. I don't believe the entire seven days
where we're at saying, not one bit.

Speaker 4 (06:50):
It was great. Yeah, Actually It was a little cool
a couple of the nights because there was that weird
front that was coming through here when we were out there.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
So and again, but you're you're almost parallel sometimes. Matter
of fact, half the time we were at sea, you could.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
See the you could see the coast.

Speaker 7 (07:03):
It was.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
It was semi romantic.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
I guess. I'm like, oh, well, there's Miami, so I
guess if we had to swim in, we could do it. Yeah, well,
they need to get you out three miles so they
can open the casino. But the uh, it's just interesting
watching like it's cruise tracker or something. And I brought
that up ever since we got back because I can
see where my daughter's ship is, you know, going now
now it's on a repositioning now is going to New

(07:29):
England and Canada. Yeah, and she didn't pack anything warm,
but you know she'll deal. But it's uh, you see
how many ships are on the water. I mean, the
cruise industry has just continued to grow. It's blossom and
Holland America is now a subsidiary of Carnival Cruise Line.
They didn't know that Carnival ships everywhere every port we

(07:52):
were in, we were next to a different carnival ship.
That's funny. We didn't see one. We saw Virgin.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
We saw a Virgin ship. When we were out there
was kind of off in the distance you could see it,
but at one point it was it was close enough
and we our rooms had a little uh binoculars, so
you could kind of look and see the ship and
see what it was.

Speaker 4 (08:09):
But other than that, you know, when we came into
Miami on Saturday, there were we were one of eight
ships in the harbor. Good lord, you had to go
to Miami. That sucks. Yeah, that's Holland. Holland comes out
of Yeah, that sucks that. You get back and you're like,
oh man, this has been great. Three and a half
hour draw. But we so we checked out with our

(08:29):
own baggage. Didn't let them check our baggage, so we
could walk off the ship shore you because we had
to get the shuttle to the parking.

Speaker 3 (08:36):
Also the contraband you're carrying, you don't want the dog
on that. I was home by one pm at a
boy good job four oh seven nine six four one
textas seven seven zero three one and I just look
go to the texting service. People are asking where deb is.

Speaker 4 (08:49):
Vacation. Well, yeah, vacation. It's her paid time off.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
Yeah, it's her week of getting married. So deb gets
married on Saturday of this week.

Speaker 4 (08:58):
And uh and uh so she's taken her own wedding planner.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Yeah, she's taking the week off to button up all
of the things. And man, we just heard some stuff
like you know, and again, none of these things ever go.

Speaker 4 (09:07):
Do you remember your wedding?

Speaker 5 (09:08):
What was a long time ago?

Speaker 3 (09:09):
I know mine was as well, but I remember, you know,
it's so funny, Depit is getting married the same exact
church my wife and I got married.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
At in Meltdaora.

Speaker 3 (09:16):
How crazy is that, right, Devin? I remember that day
and how stressful it is on the bride. It's not
stressful at all on the groom because the groom, much
like with most males lives, we just get told where
to show up and what to be wearing. Hey, yeah,
where they's to be here? Yeah yeah, get here with
sixty dollars in your pocket. Don't look like a bum
and embarrass me. I'll see at six.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
Type thing, right, right, don't be late.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
But you know, dev has had to do this entire
thing herself. You know, her fiance is the coordinator of
events coordinator from Mount Dora, so he's perpetually busy this
time of year, you know, Spring is there Christmas. So
we've been kind of needling her about what she's been doing.
And she had a situation where his best man had
had a kind of a family tragedy and they were
worried about getting him there in time. And then other

(10:00):
stuff happens, and it never happens when you want it to,
of course, or you need it to, like a week
in advance so you can cure it. You know, it's
always happening the week of So we'll be seeing deb
this week.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
I know she's completely nervous by the way.

Speaker 5 (10:11):
I'm sure. And does this also mean since she's off
this week that then when she comes back, she comes
straight back to work and that's her honeymoon?

Speaker 3 (10:17):
And so what's gonna happen is this? And I don't
understand it. Look, I gotta tell you, I don't understand
how she did it. And I don't ask questions because
it's not my life. You know, she can do whatever
you want. She's a grown ass woman with a paid
time off. She can do her But she took this
week off they're gonna get married, and then she's only
taking one day off next week and coming back to
work two days.

Speaker 4 (10:33):
Is it two days? Yeah, she'll be back when Wednesday,
a week from Wednesday, should be back, and then they're
doing their official honeymoon later. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (10:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (10:41):
Later, they're going to Chicago and some other places like
that to hang out. And he's a big baseball fan,
so they're going to do some stuff up there to
regular field.

Speaker 5 (10:49):
Yeah, go Cubs.

Speaker 4 (10:50):
Yeah, you're a Cubby fan.

Speaker 5 (10:51):
I am. I lived in Chicago for six years. Did
you really I graduated from Loyola University?

Speaker 4 (10:55):
Did you really?

Speaker 7 (10:56):
I did?

Speaker 4 (10:57):
I did not know that.

Speaker 5 (10:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (10:59):
Did you get your degree of meteorology there?

Speaker 5 (11:01):
No, that I did my undergrad there a radio, TV
film and then my meteorology is from Mississippi.

Speaker 4 (11:07):
Wow, Mississippi State.

Speaker 3 (11:08):
Got a cousin going there this year?

Speaker 5 (11:10):
Oh wow?

Speaker 7 (11:10):
Wow?

Speaker 3 (11:11):
How did you wind up in Mississippi? Is that just
where the best school is?

Speaker 4 (11:13):
From me?

Speaker 5 (11:14):
It is a school and it is that said, yes, exactly,
but it also had a in those days. Of course,
we didn't have online school, but it was a correspondence course, right,
so I was able to take their courses while I
was working in Michigan.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
Wow, where'd you have more fun?

Speaker 5 (11:30):
Chicago?

Speaker 7 (11:31):
Chicago?

Speaker 4 (11:31):
For really? Yeah?

Speaker 7 (11:32):
Wow?

Speaker 3 (11:33):
Is it where you're from, like that part of the land.

Speaker 5 (11:34):
I'm from Michigan, Oh okay, yeah, but Midwest my whole life.
Worked in Indiana, worked in Michigan, worked in Illinois.

Speaker 4 (11:40):
How they held you wind up in Florida? Just job.

Speaker 5 (11:42):
Yes, came here in two thousand and two for the job.

Speaker 4 (11:45):
Wow, you know a lot of them. They don't. It's wild.
Usually that doesn't happen until like later in life, when
you get out there and you just get sick and
tired of the weather.

Speaker 5 (11:51):
Well, it was thirty two at that point I came here.
I was a baby at thirty two. But now you
know there's actual babies working.

Speaker 3 (11:58):
Do you like I mean, obviously you've been here for
a while, but that also is career related. Do you
like living in Florida more than Chicago or do you
like the cultural kind of impact of Chicago as opposed
to Orlando doesn't have a lot of cultural stuff to
offer where Chicago has tons.

Speaker 5 (12:11):
Right both. I think my original goal when I was
there was to get back to Chicago, and then reality
hits as you start working and living and you're like,
wait a minute, I love Florida right right right, I
couldn't go back, and like I love visiting Chicago. Do
I want to live in the cold and snow again?

Speaker 4 (12:25):
No?

Speaker 8 (12:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (12:25):
Yeah, Who the hell can afford to live up there anymore?

Speaker 9 (12:27):
Right?

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Isn't it super expensive to live in newhere near that city?

Speaker 4 (12:30):

wouldn't even go. And I lived there and now they're beautiful.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
Absolutely, let's get some news, good friend, it's time for
JCS news.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Wow, this guy kind of put his name on everything.

Speaker 4 (15:05):
It's in my contract ed.

Speaker 7 (15:06):
Here's the news on the Jim Comer Show.

Speaker 4 (15:11):
First, some amy's heard that she just looked at me
with a little side eye.

Speaker 5 (15:14):
Mike, Wait, who's JCS? Oh wait, I get it.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
JCS is the guy who was watching every dribble of
the Orlando Magic at last night in game one of
their series against the top rank Detroit Pistons. I watched
the halfway through the third quarter through the end of it,
and it was exciting. Magic stunned the number one Pistons
in game one, pulling off the road upset, which kind

(15:39):
of gives them the court advantage now. But still you're
facing the number one seeded t and they look good too.
I tell you you know, there's usually that Magic swoon
in the third period, but it did not happen.

Speaker 3 (15:51):
And they actually had a decisive win. They opened that
game up big too. They were up by like fifteen
I believe at one point.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
Yeah, and they did lead wire to wire. I think
at one point it was tied but four half, right,
and then they came back again and impressive. And of
course we'll bring that down with Brandon Cravist today at
six o'clock with Sports to.

Speaker 5 (16:10):
Say, I'm a little conflicted because I grew up in Detroit,
so I was a piston span my whole life. Yeah,
of course I'm a magic. Then I got a text
from Tom Sorels when that game started and he said, Okay,
who are you cheering for? Are you conflicted or is
this go Magic?

Speaker 3 (16:24):
No, it's a go Magic scenario.

Speaker 4 (16:26):
Absolutely, and so game two in Detroit Wednesday night, so
we can look forward to that, all right. I mentioned
it Spirit Airlines on the brink liquidation could come within
days now. Union for a Spirit employees said this is
just clickbait being put out there by media groups. However,
this story will not go away. And I am deeply

(16:47):
concerned because I have a flight next month on Spirit
and I'm wondering what so this story is walking about?
What should I do Yeah, yeah, right right, yeah, because
I use my credit card airline points to purchase this flight.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
You actually should be making a phone calls what you
should be doing, because here's the thing. You cannot wait
around for that. I mean, you can't wait around and
see if it's going to be good. So you need
to call them and say, hey, look, you know, I've
got a flight here coming up in a month. Should
I just go? Should you just refund this money? Let
me go get another flight. They're not gonna tell me that.

Speaker 4 (17:18):
Yeah, they will, but.

Speaker 5 (17:19):
I don't think they will. They won't the money.

Speaker 4 (17:23):
Yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 5 (17:23):
But Jack, the last time I was here filling in
is it was two years ago, and I swear that
the same exact story happened. That you had a flight
booked on Spirit and you were super scared that it
wasn't going to happen because they were threatening bankruptcy.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
Interesting why you were doing Maybe it's your fault. Maybe
it's you that's crashing Spirit and not Spirit's business plan.

Speaker 4 (17:45):
I ended up flying Spirit successfully to Punta Kana, Oh yeah,
the Dominican Yeah yeah, yeah, so that was last year. Yeah,
that was nice in a new plane, all right, Yeah,
but oh boy, Yeah, how much was that flight? By
the way, it was only like thirty one dollars right.

Speaker 7 (18:02):
So.

Speaker 4 (18:04):
Uh used all my airline points credit card points? Yeah,
brings so their spirit. Basically this is driven by the
the war in Iraq raising fuel prices. Jet fuel has
interfered with their bankruptcy plans. They had a plan to
emerge from bankruptcy. However it factored in what jet fuel

(18:25):
costs back when they came up with the plan, not
where it is today, expert, and they're now they're approaching
the Trump administration looking for an emergency government bailout to survive.
It says, if you have a Spirit flight book like me,
experts say, don't cancel yet you'd forfeit your refund, but

(18:45):
absolutely stop buying new Spirit tickets. And yes, if they
do close, Jet Blue or Frontier could step up those Orlando.

Speaker 5 (18:53):
Gates day, but not flights.

Speaker 3 (18:58):
That is the least reassuring thing I've ever read as
part of a company's statement. This is least reassuring.

Speaker 4 (19:04):
So next, I know, I just got'm what twenty seven
minutes back from vacation, and I'm talking about the next
time I'm taking off. Yeah, it's a birthday trip. For
my youngest daughter. She wanted to see the band hum,
a nineties alternative band. They're playing in New York. Oh
my god, yeah right, one song? Right, So I'm taking
her that and the tickets were comparably priced. Okay. And

(19:25):
then I'm like, when Springsteen announces it his tour, I
look two days earlier, he's also playing in Brooklyn. Oh okay,
now I get Springsteen tickets. You have to see him
for the four hundredth time. Yankees are playing the Mets
at City Field. Can't afford those tickets. Okay, that's very nice.

Speaker 7 (19:41):
That was stupid expensive.

Speaker 4 (19:43):
But it's also my sister's birthday, so I'm just taking
It's me and my youngest daughter. It's her birthday trip.
And now Spirit.

Speaker 6 (19:50):
Better not screw me.

Speaker 3 (19:52):
I got a bad feeling for you, buddy, I got
a bad feeling. Maybe I should take Maybe the only
Spirit you're gonna be in is the Halloween stores in
about six months.

Speaker 4 (20:00):
What about if I take the auto train? Oh well,
speaking of canceling travel plans, I was like, I just
saw something about the auto train. Today, Amtrak has canceled
its train routes in and out of Florida because two
large brush fires in northeast part of the state. The
Auto train and Silver Medior trains have both been canceled

(20:21):
because of these brushfires in Clay and Putnam Counties that
are near each other. One they think might have been
started by a train, like the sparks from a train.
Now that Amtrak put out the alert on social media
due to track closure stepping from a large brush fire.
Auto trains fifty two and fifty three, which departed Sandford

(20:42):
Lorton on April nineteenth yesterday, are canceled. Customers will be
returned back to their points of origins. We sincerely apologize
for any inconvenient.

Speaker 3 (20:52):
Wow man, a Clay a fire in Clay County could
cause tens of dollars of damage.

Speaker 4 (21:01):
Milk shade on Putnam though.

Speaker 5 (21:02):
Right, No, no, no, why is it? Why does it
shut down? Is it just because they can't see?

Speaker 4 (21:06):
That doesn't make any sense to me either, Right, It's
not like your track melt. Yeah, you're not.

Speaker 3 (21:10):
You're not swerving to avoid it. I mean, I don't
understand that, other than maybe it's just because there's fire
on the track.

Speaker 4 (21:15):
They might have a policy not to ride the train
through fire.

Speaker 3 (21:19):
You think there's no snow piercer.

Speaker 4 (21:22):
Yeah, this could be driven by the insurance company. Who knows. Uh, well,
I do know. I have a way for you to
earn a little extra cash, a little six figure bonus
with anyone like under k I will.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
Take a six figure bonus. Amy, you good six figure.
We're both into it, Jack, give us the dats.

Speaker 4 (21:38):
John Morgan is offering it. Yeah, it's a contest to
name his new Florida political party. Yeah. Now, he said,
he goes, listen, I'm not running for governor. I go.
I like going to Hawaii. I like my edibles. I
like spend the time with my grandkids. I don't need
that job. But he is trying to launch a third party, said,
we've had enough of this two party system, at least

(21:59):
here in the Sunshine State. So he's put done a
contest or. It's holding a contest with one hundred thousand
dollars one hundred.

Speaker 5 (22:09):
K and I just can't be the independent party.

Speaker 4 (22:12):
No, you know it's not.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
It's funny because I've read the story last week. We
actually talk about this a tiny bit last week, Jack,
And when I read the story, I think he wants
kind of branding and elements to go with it as well.
It's not just like because I came up with the
Resolute Party, I was like, well, the Resolute Party sounds
kind of cool, right, But the problem is, I think
he wants also imagery and branding.

Speaker 4 (22:30):
To go with it.

Speaker 3 (22:31):
In other words, like Republicans have the elephant and Democrats
have the donkey, I think he wants something similar to that.
So it isn't just the name. It's more than that.
I think he wants the entire kind of branding package,
the media package as a pitch to like what it
would stand for, Like this is what the logo looks
like for this reason, this is the name. It all
kind of blends together. So it's more than just you know,

(22:53):
prompting it in AI and asking AI for forty or
fifty suggestions. It's you got to get in there and
actually do a little work and do some uh research.
But there goes plan. It's an interesting concept.

Speaker 4 (23:03):
Yeah, you gotta earn one hundred game, all right, Well
some people did it. Yeah, some people uh looking for
different ways to generate that revenue, like three million dollars
in luxury cars. Well, a theft ring has been busted
and it's a local one and Guess what the problem was.
Guess the secret to this luxury car theft ring was

(23:28):
for them finding vehicles. Oh, for them finding the vehicles,
for them being able to steal these. Did they tail
people into the neighborhoods? Oh, it's so much more basic
than that.

Speaker 3 (23:39):
And then and I think some of the people just
left their keys in their car or something.

Speaker 4 (23:42):
There you go unlocked with the keys in the car.
Five men are facing racketeering charges after Orange and Seminole
County investigators crack the luxury car theft ring responsible for
stealing thirty three high end vehicles worth up to three
million dollars. And in every single case, the cars were

(24:04):
unlocked with the keys, which is did you want to
know something?

Speaker 5 (24:08):
Though? That is rich people don't My husban Oh gosh,
now I shouldn't tell the story. My husband had his
truck stolen here in Florida twenty years ago from our
driveway because he left the.

Speaker 4 (24:23):
Keys in the Oh. Yeah, you cannot do it.

Speaker 5 (24:25):
And when the cops came and they asked him, they
were like, sorry, dude, it's your own fault.

Speaker 4 (24:29):
That's right, it is your own fault. Man.

Speaker 3 (24:31):
And it's so crazy. We talk to lawyers all the time, Like,
we'll have one in this afternoon, and it's that told.
What's the what's it jack? The nuisance? What's the word?
Public attractive news attractive nuisance? Like they actually kind of
blame you.

Speaker 5 (24:44):
Yes, Oh, they are.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
Being stolen because you accidentally left your keys in or whatever.
You're like really, like, I'm the bad guy here still
just make a little mistake. Somebody did come on my
property and take myself and I'm still the bad guy.

Speaker 5 (24:55):
I know they're still doing the wrong thing. Yeah, that's
what I thought too. Oh didn't care.

Speaker 4 (25:00):
Well. We have a Florida doctor who's no longer going
to be a doctor, most likely because he's been charged
with manslaughter for removing the wrong organ. Did you guys
talk about that? No, we did not. Yeah, Florida surgeon
behind bars after being indicted for second degree murder manslaughter.
Oh the person died twenty twenty four death of a

(25:21):
seventy year old Alabama man. Oh my goodness.

Speaker 8 (25:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
Doctor Thomas Sheknowsky of Destin was performing what was supposed
to be a routine spleen removal at Ascension Sacred Heart
Emerald Coast Hospital, but he allegedly removed the patient's liver instead.
Oh oh my god. They probably look alike. You know,
there's a lot of blood in the way. It's kind
of hard to say. I've been watching the pit. I mean,

(25:45):
this wouldn't happen on the pit. But I'm just saying.

Speaker 5 (25:48):
I mean they draw with a on you, and they're
like this leg, not this.

Speaker 4 (25:51):
One, this environment, and let me throw this in there. Y. Yeah,
he's a doctor, like, let me throw that in there.
He's a doctor supposed to be traying to do this.

Speaker 3 (26:00):
I mean, when I tuned into see Amy Sweezey do
the weather, I'm not gonna get something else. Like she said,
we give me sports right because she's a meteorologist. She
doesn't do sports well.

Speaker 4 (26:09):
The doctor did have something to say for himself, like
he blindly fired a stapling device into the abdomen and
assumed it must be the spleen. Oh my god, what
is this? Stuff?

Speaker 5 (26:21):
Must have been drinking or something, what is this?

Speaker 4 (26:24):
Witnesses in the operating room described a chaotic experience. The patient,
Bill Bryan of Muscle Shoals, Alabama, died from catastrophic blood loss.
He faces up to fifteen years in prison. His medical
license in Florida, Alabama, and New York have all been
suspended or surrendered.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
Wow, muscle shoals, there isn't that the recording suits? Yeah yeah,
I was gonna say, yeah, they recorded all those Skinner
albums there.

Speaker 4 (26:48):
Yeah, lot and a lot of others. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Hey,
muppets are taking over. So I've been down a week.
I don't know if you you know, we didn't talk
about the roller coaster. No, no, no, the Muppets are taking over.
The rock and roll a coaster at Disney's Hollywood Studios
is formerly the Arrowsmith one, but they set an opening
date so if you are a roller coaster person, you

(27:09):
want to be on the new ride right in the beginning.
It officially opens on May twenty six. Very nice. I
saw some of the I did see some of the
songs that they've switched out and some of the stuff
they've added in there. It was kind of cool, you know,
some some different stuff they took out dude looks like
a lady and put in menomena.

Speaker 6 (27:27):
Manamaah.

Speaker 4 (27:29):
So yeah, they opened it in nineteen ninety nine as
Arrowsmith and you know, now the Doctor Teith and the
crew will perform covers of Born to Be Wild ye
walking on Sunshine Love roller Coaster.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
But the voices are different though, right, Like I think
like Kelly Clarkson's providing voice for one of them. So
it's not even the original artists singing the songs. I
think it's a covey of their of their artists that
they've kind of contracted to do that.

Speaker 4 (27:54):
And they have also in addition to the songs, they
have nine celebrity cameos hidden throughout the c Yeah. Yeah,
including weird Al Neil Patrick Harris, John Stamos, Danny trey Hoo, Yeah,
the Magenti guy.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
Who is gonna know Danny Trejo in a Muppet.

Speaker 4 (28:12):
Ride, who is gonna know that?

Speaker 3 (28:15):
Yeah, It's like, Okay, there's the bad guy from every
movie you've seen for the last twenty two years.

Speaker 5 (28:19):
They'll just recognize his voice.

Speaker 4 (28:20):
Yeah, I guess that's wild, dude.

Speaker 5 (28:22):
You've heard a lot of people complaining, you know, they're
sad the old ride is going pull it out. They're like, oh,
the Muppets that But think about it, this is Disney.
They're not going to do it poorly.

Speaker 4 (28:31):
No, no, no, no, They're never going to know.

Speaker 5 (28:32):
You know, it's going to be really cool.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
Yeah, all right, real quick, speaking the theme parks, Universal Orlando,
they had to they release their injury report, but it's
raises some eyebrows. Did you talk about this at all
about what the ride at Universal Orlando that has the
most injury? No, but I have to tell you I
did see that somebody else got injured in a ride
out there.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
Man, they're they're on one.

Speaker 4 (28:54):
Yeah. So, uh, the they tracked this. The report tracks
incident requiring at least twenty four hours of hospitalization. And
they just released Universal Orlando log twelve separate cases across
six parts in early this year, twenty twenty six. The
most surprising detail is the ride that logged the most injuries.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
It's gonna be something silly, isn't it.

Speaker 4 (29:17):
I think so? Well?

Speaker 3 (29:19):
I think that didn't it start us? Racer is the
one that kind of started getting all the heat.

Speaker 7 (29:22):
Right.

Speaker 4 (29:22):
You would expect that it's fast moving, right, it's going
in every different direction. It's breaking the fourth dimension.

Speaker 5 (29:28):
Maybe it's a kid's ride.

Speaker 4 (29:30):
It's not a kid's ride, but it's the Hogwarts Express.
What the train that goes from one park to the
other very slowly.

Speaker 5 (29:39):
It doesn't even do anything.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
Except it shows you a video screen of a window
and it's kind of they're acting around you.

Speaker 5 (29:48):
Oh that's weird, just.

Speaker 4 (29:49):
Headbutting the window thing and they're gonna look out.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
I people keep losing teeth on this ride for some
other reason.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
D seventy two concussions. But it's just shocking that that
was the thing, and real quick, because this is a
story that raises a question of what do you think
about this new Florida Snap benefits are taking effect and
you can this is only a two year test, but
you can no longer buy certain things like soft drinks,

(30:20):
pre made dessert, and pre made food. So they're kind
of eliminating a lot of the junk food. Now, well,
you think that's to try and push people if they're
getting Snap benefits, to make sure they're making healthy choices,
healthier choice. However, the argument against it is some people
of these are some of these people using Snap benefits
are in food deserts where healthy choices I mean, you

(30:43):
only have a convenience store without healthy choices available to some.
But it's a two year program. They're going to see
if they can move the needle on people's health, and
you know, see how it works out.

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Yeah, I have that pull to talk about a little
bit later. I believe we have the list of stuff
that is on there, and I think there's one kind
of weird anomaly because when you look at it says,
of course no hard candy, no no prepared dessert kind
of pastry things. In other words, you can't buy twinkies
or anything like that. But I think there was something
that kind of slid through the cracks. If I remember
reading the story, right, I guess that's what we'll talk
about a little bit later, all right, Yeah, because it's

(31:16):
kind of wild. You're like, well, how's that not in there?
If everything else is finally we.

Speaker 4 (31:20):
Mentioned at the top. I drove back from Miami over
the weekend. That's a long drive. On a long drive,
what is the one thing a car could add to
the vehicle that is currently not in a vehicle that
could make your trips maybe.

Speaker 3 (31:34):
A little smoother self driving?

Speaker 4 (31:37):
Not they already have that. Yeah, something that's totally not
in vehicles right now? Air what's the thing you stop?
What's the thing you stop for?

Speaker 5 (31:44):
Most toilet toilet.

Speaker 4 (31:48):
Chinese car company patents and in car toilet that slides.

Speaker 5 (31:52):
Out from under the seat like an RV.

Speaker 4 (31:54):
How about that.

Speaker 3 (31:55):
Yeah, but not like an RV because it's a.

Speaker 5 (31:58):
Car driver, right, No man has to pull over.

Speaker 3 (32:03):
Yeah, I don't think they're gonna be able to steal
that up enough for your boy.

Speaker 4 (32:07):
There's something lingering back there. Successfully fired filed a patent
for a voice activated in vehicle toilet that slides out
from underneath a passenger seat on command. Oh no, buddy,
I'm not a part of that at all. It's a
retractable toilet system that is a do not slam on
the brake scenario designed for low long road trips or

(32:28):
traffic jam.

Speaker 5 (32:29):
Well, and remember that astronaut that drove across the country
and war depends for that reason. Oh yeah, this would
solve her problem.

Speaker 4 (32:39):
Like that.

Speaker 3 (32:39):
Amy says, you know, this is going to solve a
problem psycho women. Psycho women trying to drive and have
problems with.

Speaker 4 (32:44):
Their ex husband. Yeah, that's this is gonna help. That's
your dude, all right? For seven nine four one text

Speaker 5 (34:17):
There, Jack's got me turned off.

Speaker 7 (34:19):
He does that.

Speaker 3 (34:21):
He has an effect on ladies.

Speaker 4 (34:23):
And of course Jack is here with us as well,
back from his cruise, back from vacation. Deb is out
this week because she is prepping for her wedding that
I hope to ruin coming on Saturday.

Speaker 7 (34:32):
What are you wearing?

Speaker 4 (34:33):
Jack?

Speaker 3 (34:34):
You're wearing a suit?

Speaker 7 (34:34):
You wear so?

Speaker 4 (34:35):
Oh, great question, because we have to figure this out.
That actually is a good question. But let's let we
have a young lady here right, Oh, thank you for
the young a young lady here with some styles. She's beautiful,
one of the best smiles in the world. By the way,
you have beautiful eyes as well, young lady.

Speaker 6 (34:49):
Oh, thank you.

Speaker 3 (34:49):
If you were at a way, if you were getting married,
right and your co workers were coming to the wedding,
what would you expect?

Speaker 4 (34:56):
I mean, is it?

Speaker 3 (34:57):
Does it have to be a suit with a jacket
or can it be like a tie shirt slack scenario?

Speaker 5 (35:01):
Well, I think they were probably told you in the invitation,
right did it say in the invitation? Formal attire? Cocktail attire.

Speaker 4 (35:09):
I'm Jim Colbert. I don't read stuff like that. It's
going to meet you.

Speaker 5 (35:12):
Check with your wives. They probably have the invitation. They
probably already know what you're wearing and how your up
it picked up.

Speaker 4 (35:18):
I'm wearing your suit?

Speaker 3 (35:19):
Are you really?

Speaker 4 (35:20):
Yep? Suit and tie? I don't have one?

Speaker 5 (35:22):
Is it inside outside?

Speaker 4 (35:23):
It's inside?

Speaker 5 (35:24):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (35:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (35:25):
Yeah, well yeah inside, and the receptions inside as well.
So it's a full inside scenario.

Speaker 4 (35:29):
And I'm going with I have one good suit and
then I have a couple that passes. Okay, But I'm
going with a tie because I did a bow tie
the last time I wore the suit, which was Ross's wedding.

Speaker 3 (35:42):
Oh really, okay, good, it was a bow tie.

Speaker 4 (35:43):
So I'm going with a tie. Now, let me ask
this young lady.

Speaker 3 (35:46):
All right, now we know the colors of her wedding
because we know what Dev's favorite colors are. Is it
customary to kind of have a little something as part
of your repertoire or your your not repertoire, but your your.

Speaker 4 (35:58):
Setup that has as a color pocket square, pocket square,
maybe a tie or something like that, or sock.

Speaker 5 (36:04):
Normally it is a major faux pas to dress in
any of the colors. Know that yes, especially for women,
like if you find out that the bridesmaids wearing red,
then you do not wear a red dress to the wedding.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
Man, I am so glad I asked you that question. Yeah,
so glad because I was gonna do some purple stuff.
I'm straight up printing.

Speaker 5 (36:22):
You might expect that from you, And so maybe.

Speaker 4 (36:23):
That's I don't say that. How dare you?

Speaker 3 (36:26):
How dare you so you're seeing them classes? I'm in classless?
OAF That's what it said.

Speaker 4 (36:30):
She nailed. That's what it sounded like. She had have
gonna nail it.

Speaker 5 (36:33):
Yeah, so one of you marrying her? Like, are you
officiating the wedding?

Speaker 4 (36:37):
She wouldn't trust you barely got invited.

Speaker 3 (36:40):
Yeah, and I'm telling you, if it wasn't for the
gift scenario, chances are no invite.

Speaker 4 (36:46):
I'm gonna be honest.

Speaker 5 (36:48):
Invitation does equal you need to send me again?

Speaker 4 (36:51):
Yeah, And she's doing you know, they're like she always
says like her house is small, so she doesn't want stuff.

Speaker 3 (36:58):
Cash is king, So I Jack, do you know how
much you get?

Speaker 1 (37:01):
I do?

Speaker 4 (37:01):
Do you know what you're putting in you? First?

Speaker 5 (37:06):
It's hard these days. It used to be fifty bucks.

Speaker 4 (37:09):
It used to be if I.

Speaker 3 (37:10):
Gave dever a fifty dollars, you know what you do
with it? She'd water, set it on fire and throw
it into my house. That's what she would do with
fifty dollars if I gave her fifty bucks.

Speaker 5 (37:19):
So it's got to be a little more than that.

Speaker 4 (37:20):
Oh yeah, let's say my sister's wedding. I remember when
my cousin gave her a hundred and that was like, whoa,
that was one hundred bucks. And that was in the eighties, right,
that's so okay, use fingers, Jack, use fingers. How much
do you think? Oh god, I gotta do more than
that now. Yeah, I can't let Jack out give me money.

Speaker 3 (37:37):
Right, I can't do that.

Speaker 4 (37:39):
There's no way I do that. I think I met
you on the birthday gift too, Did you really? I
think so because I purposely I low balled yet and
then I put it, what a bastard.

Speaker 5 (37:49):
Is you'll get cash for your birthday gifts to each other?

Speaker 4 (37:51):
Yeah. Sometimes, I mean, we know we did it this
time for her because we knew the wedding was a
few months I right back in January, so we knew
she's been It's been a lot and self financing and
it's not cheap. Yeah, yeah, not cheap, right, So and
then Jack showed that number, and now I have to
do something more than that. Oh, actually for the wedding,

(38:11):
I'm doing that.

Speaker 7 (38:12):
No you're not.

Speaker 4 (38:13):
Yeah, no, I'm not falling for that. There's no way.

Speaker 5 (38:15):
Definitely change, no way, I'm.

Speaker 4 (38:17):
Not falling for that. For one thing, there's can I
tell you.

Speaker 3 (38:19):
I can't even believe you're able to put that many
fingers out, so you better go to this. But the
thing is, and I'm going to be honest, what sucks
is this deb is so cool. If I were to
give her fifty dollars, she would write me a thank
you note for it. And there's no way in a
million dollars I could do that because she just means

(38:40):
too much to us as a as a friend and
as a coworker. There's no way I could give her
only fifty dollars. But she would still be fine with that.
She would be thankful for fifty dollars.

Speaker 5 (38:49):
It's hard to know, it really is how much to
give because it does change? And how well do you
know them?

Speaker 10 (38:54):
And yeah, all this question, okay, if you are in
our scenario. Ooh for a co worker, maybe when you've
known for a while. Yeah, yeah, because you were at
Channel two for how long?

Speaker 5 (39:07):
Eighteen years?

Speaker 4 (39:07):
Eighteen years?

Speaker 3 (39:08):
Right, so one of your co workers after knowing them
for ten twelve eighteen years, Which did happen?

Speaker 4 (39:15):
Which did happen? Do you remember what but you got
to get from the registreet? Probably right? Or did you
give cash? Normally?

Speaker 5 (39:21):
My husband is a big cash is king guy, so
he would much rather do cash than I gif.

Speaker 4 (39:24):
Yeah, a couple hundred bucks. Uh huh, yeah, Okay, I
think that's fair.

Speaker 5 (39:28):
Yeah, oh god, that's hard.

Speaker 4 (39:31):
I just put flooring. But you got a good deal
on the flooring. If you mentioned my name with car
Flooring Center get a discount dorflooringfl dot com. You saved
fifty bucks. So that's an extra fifty on top of
what you were going to put in there.

Speaker 3 (39:48):
I saw Cory this morning and I had to tell him,
like he goes, uh yeah, because we did a two
stage job, we would pay for the first stage, and.

Speaker 4 (39:54):
We paid for it this morning, and uh and uh.
I remember when he said the number to my wife.
I was just like, God, how much for what? No,
I'm joking it was actually a really good deal, all
right for a seven nine one six one four one
text Us at seven seven zero three one textter has
some real good advice. You don't match the wedding party,
what you match your partner who you're going with.

Speaker 3 (40:17):
Yeah, but you need to make sure that both of
us don't have that color in our in our setups,
because I mean, yeah, yeah, that's.

Speaker 5 (40:23):
Kind of like prom though I don't. I've never matched
my husband at a wedding. Is the only way to know, uh, really,
on purpose, I don't. Okay, sometimes we walk out in
the same color, I'll go change.

Speaker 4 (40:33):
Yeah, it's the only way to know the color of
a wedding would be if it was part of the invitation,
because I guess, well, that's a good point. The invitation
would have the colors of the wedding.

Speaker 5 (40:44):
Sometimes, would it. I usually ask I will ask a
bridesmaid or the bride what the colors are?

Speaker 4 (40:50):
Send some tree hugger wedding invitation. Oh my, they're absolutely wonderful.
It's like a seed pack and you have to plant something.
Oh my god, it's so much. The seeds are in
the paper. So when it's over, and it even says
after this ceremony. You plant this in your garden and
it'll grow.

Speaker 5 (41:07):
Oh cool, that's cool.

Speaker 4 (41:10):
It's okay. I mean, it's okay. Let's don't get all
carried away. It is a little a little huggy.

Speaker 5 (41:19):
Well, that's why she needs the extra money, because all
those seed things cost money.

Speaker 4 (41:23):
Jim told me he was going to put his invitation
back in the car to her and say, here's a bouquet.
You just have to plant it yourself, all right, four
oh seven six four one. It's gonna look good in
six months, so I promise. So I have to ask
you guys something. So you've lived in Florida for hell long,
Jackson since eighty nine, Amy, two thousand and two. So
two thousand and two, eighty nine.

Speaker 3 (41:45):
I've lived here since eighty five, Okay, So we have
plenty of Florida years, right, man, When tourists come to
this state, I don't know that any other state is
like this.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
Man.

Speaker 3 (41:54):
I think there almost kind of needs to be a
warning to people who come to Florida. And we've talked
about this a little bit before, and I'll tell you
what I mean next.

Speaker 4 (42:10):
Hey, guys, I hope you guys do well talking about
the suit for the wedding.

Speaker 11 (42:12):
For Dev's wedding, man, I would check the invitations, probably
had some instructions in there.

Speaker 4 (42:17):
But if it does not, maybe something colorful, man, a
blue suit, maybe like a blue suit, maybe pink suit.

Speaker 5 (42:24):
I don't know, man, all of that looks good and
sounds good.

Speaker 4 (42:27):
Something summarish, you.

Speaker 7 (42:28):
Know, right, I know what I'm talking about. Bye bye?

Speaker 3 (42:31):
You do you dressed well?

Speaker 4 (42:32):
So you cheap fasters. I've never even met Dev, and
I'm gonna send it her fifty bucks?

Jack is here as well. Yep, he's already got it.

Speaker 8 (43:33):
Hey.

Speaker 4 (43:33):
Hey, yeah, we got a text from my wife and
just what do you mean I can't wear purple? Oh right,
that's her thing.

Speaker 5 (43:40):
By the way she has her hair is purple.

Speaker 4 (43:45):
Easy, buddy, you have to sit.

Speaker 7 (43:45):
In the back.

Speaker 5 (43:46):
She you make an exception for her though she purple
is her thing.

Speaker 4 (43:50):
I'll be in the back because that's where I'm watching
the baseball game. And by the way, no baseball games, jackass.
And then secondly, by the way I asked her about
seating arrangements. You don't know, Oh, Jack doesn't know.

Speaker 7 (44:01):
Oh come on tell me what do you know?

Speaker 4 (44:03):
How much it costs me? Do you have any idea
how much it cost me to get you sat where
you're sitting? Look?

Speaker 6 (44:09):
How happy?

Speaker 7 (44:13):
Wait?

Speaker 4 (44:14):
Yeah, we're all sitting together. Okay, so be on your
best behavior. I will. It's gonna be me you.

Speaker 3 (44:21):
We'reross our significant others, and then four other people, two
other couples, and she would not tell me who they are? Yes,
you know I yes, all right, her mom did the
sitting arrangement, so God only knows. That means you're buying
the drinks. No, that means I'm at the table where
the drinks are being bought. Really yeah, four oh seven
nine four one takes a seven seven zero three one.

(44:44):
Old fashions will be for everybody. That's what we're doing.
So after a party at my place?

Speaker 4 (44:48):
All right, all right, all right, right, all right, all right.

Speaker 3 (44:54):
So do you think there's any other state in America
you should be warned about before you go to other
than Florida? I mean, look, if you go to certain areas,
I would think maybe if you go to Memphis or
go to Tennessee and you go to memphish like, hey,
you know, I might want to keep your head on
a swivel there Memphis. It's a little a little crimey.

Speaker 5 (45:09):
Don't go out after dark, right exactly?

Speaker 3 (45:11):
Apparently New Mexico has a Albuquerque. Yeah yeah, how about
keep in Chicago? Like there are certain parts of Chicago.
I made the mistake and whenever too?

Speaker 4 (45:20):
Is it? What's that?

Speaker 3 (45:21):
What's that really bad place in Chicago? It's an apartment
complex or a.

Speaker 5 (45:25):
Oh back in the day, it was Cabrini Green, Cabrini Green. Yeah,
I don't think it exists anymore.

Speaker 4 (45:29):
I don't think it does either.

Speaker 3 (45:30):
But I actually walked through that on accident, going to
get Crystal Burgers there when I was once, when I
was up there working once, uh huh. And that was
a big mistake. And I got warned.

Speaker 4 (45:37):
That was April two thousand and one. Yeah, I got warned.
I just had a guy yell at me, go yo, no,
that's all. They said, you are not welcome here, sir. No, No,
we're not doing that here, big dog. Do not tempt us.

Speaker 3 (45:55):
But man, I gotta tell you know, the two other
people passed away in Florida Coco Beach too, because we
have no funding for lifeguards over there, and matter of fact,
the mayor, I think, even said, hey, look, if you
guys are okay with us raising tact is to put
more lifeguards out there, we'll gladly do that. But as
of right now, the funding that we have does not
cover enough lifeguards to have shifts all over. So you

(46:18):
have to be very cognizant when you come down here
as a tourist to go to the beaches. I think
a lot of people unfortunately, when it comes to Florida,
you know, you're worried about gators and stuff like that,
and although that is definitely a threat, there's zero question
a gator in anybody of water here in Florida is
a threat. And it's very tempting to jump into some
of these places because it's hot outside and the water

(46:38):
looks cool and very inviting.

Speaker 4 (46:40):
You can't do that. But we don't really warn people
as much about the rip currents, I believe as we should.
And I don't know what the state can do about that,
and I don't know if it's their responsibility, because as
a tourist you should probably do your research before you.

Speaker 3 (46:52):
Come down here.

Speaker 4 (46:53):
But man, oh man, it just seems like the most
avoidable of all of the deaths that we experience in
this state or drownings, especially the beach.

Speaker 5 (47:02):
It's so deceiving though it really is. You don't if
the seas are rough, right, then that's obvious. Oh don't
go out there. It's really windy, and but rip currents
you don't, even if you don't know what you're looking for,
you don't see them. And the water looks fine.

Speaker 3 (47:15):
Right, and it's weird because we've seen them from above.
Every time the season comes in and I forget what
station does it. They do a drone shot and they
show you one happening in real time, like this is
how this happens. Water comes in, then it channels out
like that and it goes out past the surf and
the break and next thing you know, they threw a
boo out. They're just going to show you how fast
it is. And it went from six inches of water

(47:37):
to ten feet of water in a matter of seconds.

Speaker 5 (47:39):
Right, And it's people that they just get pulled out
into it in there and water so deep then they
can't get back, and then you.

Speaker 3 (47:44):
Panic and then you have It's not like a lake
or you you know. Here you have to fight the current.
You have to fight the waves hitting you in the
face and.

Speaker 4 (47:50):
You when you should be swimming parallel to the beach
until you're out of it. Yeah, but who knows that well.
I think it's you need to educate people. I think
TV Weather does a really good job meteorologists on television
every year that they're warning about the rep currents. I've
seen more demonstrations showing you what is happening under the
water and why you're supposed to be swimming. But I've

(48:13):
seen it a lot on the local TV, you know
weather people doing it.

Speaker 5 (48:16):
But the problem is nobody's watching TV anymore.

Speaker 4 (48:19):
Yeah, that's a bad challenge. So the other thing too.

Speaker 3 (48:21):
Of course, I know you can fly into the state.

Speaker 4 (48:24):
We know. I think maybe most people fly into Florida
and the central Florida as they come in here. But
you can't drive in.

Speaker 3 (48:29):
And I know that almost every state you go into,
when you cross that line into that state, it'll say
a tune into this radio station for information about our state.
Maybe have you ever I've never done it once in
my life. But but look, the sign doesn't say you
want to live question mark.

Speaker 4 (48:44):
It doesn't say that.

Speaker 3 (48:44):
Like maybe if they pitched it a little different. So
we we did a better branding and campaign. We need
to scare the hell out of these people a little bit.
Let them understand. Look, when you come in this state.
Yeah it's cool. We got a bunch of cool stuff.

Speaker 4 (48:55):
We also have other stuff that isn't so cool, like
you know, dinosaurs that we eat your face and of
course RiPP her and so to pull you out to
ten feet of water in five seconds Yeah, I know what.

Speaker 5 (49:05):
You should do. You should offer a one hundred thousand
dollars bonus to anybody who comes up with a be
careful in Florida.

Speaker 3 (49:15):
Morgan's only going to finance so much of this.

Speaker 4 (49:17):
So the challenges who does finance, because that's what it
comes down to with the lifeguards. Right the Coco Beach
Mayor Ben Gregory, he said, listen, the city of Coco
Beach can't afford to put lifeguards at every one of
these beaches. They have signs that say there's no light.
They don't have lifeguards on every beach. And it says

(49:38):
that he believes the Tourist Development Council should be stepping up. Yeah,
and if you're promoting tourism, having people drown on your
beach is not a good luck.

Speaker 3 (49:47):
And there was a they said there was a they
were a mile away from the nearest lifeguard tower where
they when they went to swim. And again, maybe it's
a better opportunity of putting signs out there near the
ocean saying hey, if you aren't a seasoned swimmer, you
need to be very careful for these signs for undertow
because you know there are no lifeguards here and even
near the towers.

Speaker 4 (50:06):
I remember two three years ago there was one.

Speaker 3 (50:09):
Where it got sucked out and they got to the person,
but it was within view of the tower right back.
I believe it was just just almost in front of
the damn thing because it just happened so fast. Yeah,
and again, one person in a lifeguard tower can only
watch so many people. That's why they kept tying. I
remember two or three years ago the state started issuing
these edicts saying, hey, look, stop wearing blue bathing suits.

(50:31):
You know, stop wearing bathing suits that blend into the water,
so that if you do get out there, you'll start
start wearing bathing suits that are red or pink or
something like that. So if you're out there, we could at.

Speaker 4 (50:41):
Least see you. I forgot about that. Yeah, especially with
kids or even you know, anyone, really anyone. Yeah, it
should have a suit that is either bright or definitely
contrast with the color of the water.

Speaker 3 (50:51):
And when people hear about the undertow thing, they think
to themselves, well, you know, it could happen in knee
deep water. People are like, there's no way, and like
Amy was saying, man, if you've never experienced anything like
that with that water pulling against you so hard that
all you have to do is lose your balance, and
once you hit your ass and you're off your feet,
it's it's so much faster.

Speaker 4 (51:10):
Than you think your feet or twenty feet, it doesn't matter. Y. Yeah,
you know were you do?

Speaker 11 (51:14):
You?

Speaker 3 (51:14):
Are you an ocean girl?

Speaker 4 (51:15):
Do you like going to the beach and suffer?

Speaker 5 (51:16):
I love going to the beach. I love the sun
and the sand, the water, saltwater. I grew up in
Lake Michigan.

Speaker 11 (51:21):
You know.

Speaker 3 (51:23):
Well, the reason I bring this up is because I
tell the story before. I used to surf up in
Sant Augustine quite a bit before I moved to Orlando,
and there for about two years my tenth and eleventh
grade or eleventh and twelfth grade, we were over there
literally like every weekend surfing and we would wait for
hurricanes because that was when the biggest surf would come.
We'd get that nice, big surf and it was always
more fun. But also during the hurricanes is when you
got to see the power of the ocean.

Speaker 4 (51:44):
We would get in.

Speaker 3 (51:45):
I would tell Jack this story, and it was confirmed
by people who also surf that we would put in
at this one place called a street in Saint Augustine, right,
and that was a good surf break. And I remember putting.
When you would put in, somebody would drive a Chase
car and they would go because as you you can't
tell you're drifting because you're looking at the you know,
you're trying to get your wave or whatever. And you
would drift a mile and a half or two miles

(52:08):
easily in the ocean. The current will be so strong
and the Chase vehicle would literally never stop rolling. They
would have to keep going to kind of keep up
with you. You were moving that fast and you could
never tell it.

Speaker 5 (52:19):
Yeah, and you're looking back at the at the land
and like, wait, where's that building right right right?

Speaker 3 (52:23):
And you would ride in and you'd hop in the
truck and you couldn't believe how long it took back
took to get back to the entry spot because of
how powerful the current was. And that's during a hurricane,
of course, but sometimes those storms can be way offshore
and the effects can be onshore and you don't even
know it.

Speaker 5 (52:38):
Yes, that's one of the Actually, that's one of the
biggest problems with hurricanes in Florida when people kind of
put their guard down and like, oh, it's not coming here.
We're good. But they always forget about that.

Speaker 3 (52:47):
Yeah, yeah, and it could be one hundred miles off
shore and still causing havoc. Man, all right, four oh
seven nine one six one o four one. You can
always text us again at seven seven zero three one.
Don't forget your four o'clock hewart Is family.

Speaker 4 (52:58):
That's f A M.

Speaker 1 (52:59):
I L Y.

Speaker 3 (53:00):
Just slide over to real Radio dot FM and send
that away for your chance at one thousand dollars.

Speaker 4 (53:04):
Amy Sweezey with us today. She's a meteorologist.

Speaker 3 (53:06):
I want to talk about how AI is affecting this, uh,
the idea of meteorology and the accuracy of that.

Speaker 4 (53:12):
I don't want to do that when we get back.

Speaker 1 (53:14):
All right, afternoon, Colver crew. Jimmy.

Speaker 13 (53:29):
I live in the state all my life, group in
the West Coast of Florida and moved to the East
coast about thirty years ago.

Speaker 1 (53:35):
West Coast.

Speaker 13 (53:36):
Yeah, it's like a lake. There's hardly any waves. Yeah,
there's no currence on the street coast, the rip currents,
and I've been swimming all my life and I still
take don't take any chances at times because it can
still pull pull you out.

Speaker 1 (53:49):
So some of that's not from here. Yeah, they be
very very careful because it can get you if you're
not expecting it.

Speaker 4 (53:57):
Okay, Jimmy, let's in here.

Speaker 14 (54:01):
A side George drift or what's known as littoral drift
is not an undertow. An undertow was when the waves
that are coming into the shore rush back out through
channels and pull people out to sea. So the side
George drift that you experienced when you're taking down the
beach from a place you went out at is.

Speaker 4 (54:20):
Not an undertow. Understood, Just want to clarify.

Speaker 3 (54:22):
Thank you, buddy, appreciate that.

Speaker 1 (54:25):
Well.

Speaker 4 (54:25):
I've never been caught in a rip current, but my wife,
she was caught in a strip current. Funniest thing I
ever saw.

Speaker 6 (54:32):
Big wave knocked your down.

Speaker 4 (54:34):
She was rolling around in the wash and when she
went to stand up for uh meathings who bottomed were
down around the range. Hello, ole beach got an eyePhone. Hilarious.
I bet she thought it was a hoot. All right,
Welcome back to the Jim Gilbert Show. Real ready one

(54:54):
oh four point one. Family is your four o'clock Hewart
f A M. I l y go to real radio
out of fimenson that for your chance to one thousand bucks. Beili,
I'm jim, there's Amy.

Speaker 5 (55:04):
Oh all right, Jack, that's two you get one more.
That's one more.

Speaker 4 (55:09):
Strike button was yeah, Jack is here. I supposed to
do it?

Speaker 5 (55:16):
Sorry, Okay, nope, I'll do it. How do I do it?

Speaker 6 (55:19):
Easy?

Speaker 3 (55:19):
Deva got them money in here. We gotta push your
button for you too, right, So Amy sweezey with us today.
You may have seen her on Channel two w e
s H for damn near twenty years doing the weather
over there. And uh so, first things first, what this clear?
But a couple of miscons well maybe not misconceptions. Oh
and by the way, I knew the side drift wasn't

(55:40):
the undertow. I was trying to under explain the power
of the ocean when you don't know it's there. That's
just simply what I was trying to do there. But
I believe you, Jeff, thank you. I appreciate that.

Speaker 4 (55:49):
Jack.

Speaker 3 (55:49):
I don't need you to, but I do appreciate you
doing that.

Speaker 4 (55:52):
All right.

Speaker 3 (55:53):
So you know, we've had a good relationship with many
of the meteorologist here in Orlando for a while namely you,
Tom Sorels, Tony Mannolfi, who else, Jack.

Speaker 4 (56:02):
Mean Youriology on the show. Yeah yeah, some of the
people from Fox thirty five as well. Yep, absolutely, Okay.

Speaker 3 (56:07):
So with that said, we've always heard that back in
the day, the weather people were the highest paid people
at the station.

Speaker 4 (56:14):
That's what we heard.

Speaker 5 (56:15):
Weird people probably told you that.

Speaker 3 (56:18):
We always heard that the weather people were the highest
paid people at the radio stations because the weather was
the most watched segment of the evening news for a
good reason. That's why it was so unbelievably valuable for
you guys, or for any station to have a very
engaging weather personality, because it was so valuable to the station.

Speaker 4 (56:41):
Is that true?

Speaker 5 (56:42):
It is not true. I believe that people do watch
TV weather specifically for the weather. They watched TV news
for the weather. But no, the weather people were not
paid more than the newspeople. Really, usually the evening people, though,
are paid more than the morning people, which, of course,
those of us who were on mornings for eighteen years
thought that was so unfair because we always said, hey,

(57:03):
more people are watching in the morning than are watching
at night, so we should actually get paid more. But
you know, they didn't listen to me. They didn't care
what I said. It's so weird.

Speaker 3 (57:12):
You need a more compelling agent.

Speaker 4 (57:13):
I do. Twenty five years ago, it used to be like,
you know, three minutes of weather than three minutes of sports.
And then sports kept shrinking, and then weather started popping
up in block A and and throughout the whole thirty
minute newscast. You you've seen so weather, I think, And
I don't know is that nationwide or is that more

(57:34):
specifically to Florida.

Speaker 5 (57:35):
No, that's probably nationwide.

Speaker 3 (57:36):
Is it really even though we have more like we
have a I mean, when you look at Florida as
like a weather state, I would think that we kind
of stand out among like all the other fifty, right,
I mean.

Speaker 5 (57:46):
Weird, We're definitely up there. But you know, obviously there's
a lot of states that have the four distinct seasons,
so they'll have blizzards, you know, they'll have all the
different weather in the different seasons. Someplace like Phoenix, they
might only do a two or a minute thirty in
the entire half hour newscast because it's one hundred and
sunny and there's not.

Speaker 3 (58:02):
Right, yeah, Or maybe San Diego, same scenario. Right, Hey,
another perfect day out there in California. Enjoy yourself. I'll
see tomorrow.

Speaker 5 (58:08):
That's the biggest challenge, finding a new way to say
the same thing every day.

Speaker 3 (58:12):
What was it for you, though, because I mean in
the summer here in Florida, I mean very a while.
I think the weather change, the weather patterns have changed
a little bit with the El Ninos and El ninyas,
as those wind patterns come through and kind of change
things up for a season.

Speaker 5 (58:25):
Sometimes knowledgeable throwing out those words there, it's pretty good.

Speaker 4 (58:28):
I've experienced. I've experienced at one time out there in
La when it was supposed to be seventy.

Speaker 3 (58:32):
Five and it was like ninety with the wind blowing
through that thing. But when that when that kind of
abnormal weather pattern starts. But within Florida for years it
was we knew from about June uh huh, you know,
fifteenth until about September fifteenth that every single day around
three or five o'clock, we were going to get a
nasty storm. It was going to rain like crazy. Like

(58:53):
Jack said, you go play pickleball forty minutes later.

Speaker 12 (58:55):
Right.

Speaker 5 (58:56):
One of the best lessons I learned when I first
moved to Florida because I came here from the Midwest,
so the weather was obviously very different. And when I
first moved here, people from the Midwest said to me,
why are you going to Florida, Like that's going to
be the most boring job, because it's sunny and ninety
and afternoon storms every single day. Well, of course, once
I got here, I realized that wasn't true. But one
of the best lessons I learned was from a boss

(59:17):
where I went into the morning news meeting to give
the weather for the day, and I basically said to
everybody that was sitting in the meeting, pretty much the
same as yesterday. Not much going on today, you know.
And he looked at me in front of everybody and said, well, then,
what do we need you for?

Speaker 13 (59:33):
Right?

Speaker 5 (59:35):
And I was so embarrassed, but I was like, ooh,
that was a good lesson because it's like because that
then became my reason when I went on TV. Okay,
it is the same today, but what about today makes
it a little bit different than yesterday? And now that's
my story, that's my lead, that's what I'm going to
focus on today. The storms are going to be focused
at the beaches whereas yesterday they were inland or whatever.

(59:57):
So you just find that one thing that makes today's
weather unique and focus on that.

Speaker 3 (01:00:01):
And we always joke with all of the weather people,
you know, when hurricane season comes, it's like you're Christmas,
you know we and actually for us here it's kind
of turned into that a little bit as well, because
we will sleep in the building overnight when those hurricanes
are hitting. Because we don't go off the air, we
just continually give people a voice to listen to, giving
them as many updates as possible from the information that
we get on the inside.

Speaker 4 (01:00:20):
And you know, we know for a fact they're very
appreciative of that. What was like during the big storms?
What's it like for you guys?

Speaker 5 (01:00:25):
Yes, it depended on the storm. One of the benefits,
obviously of being the meteorologist is you could kind of
time out when you're driving to and from work. We
had that inside scoop. So I only actually stayed overnight
at the station one time. That was in Hurricane Irma
in twenty seventeen. Before that, I was able to time
it out so I didn't have to spend the night.
But since I've left, I left in twenty twenty full time.

(01:00:48):
I think the news and weather people have had to
stay for many more storms.

Speaker 4 (01:00:52):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah for sure. Talking to Amy Sweezee
of course, formerly a meteor I'll just over at Channel
two for years.

Speaker 5 (01:00:58):
Well now I freelance for Spectrum thirteen as well, So
I do. I still keep my toe in the weather,
which is great.

Speaker 4 (01:01:03):
Yeah, it is good. Do you have a podcast? I do.

Speaker 5 (01:01:06):
I have a podcast. Thank you Jack for asking.

Speaker 4 (01:01:08):
Is it about weather? It is not. What is it about?

Speaker 5 (01:01:11):
So a couple of years ago, I did a teTeX
talk teTeX Eustace in twenty twenty four, and I titled
my talk Reinvention at any Age because I had reinvented
myself when I first graduated from college, because my plan
was to go into news, and I had to reinvent
myself into a meteorologist, go back to college, start over
a new career. Then when I left my career all
those years later in twenty twenty, I had to reinvent

(01:01:32):
myself again because I didn't know what I was going
to do. So I shared this tet X talk and
then since I did that talk, which by the way,
you can find it on.

Speaker 4 (01:01:40):
YouTube, yep.

Speaker 5 (01:01:41):
That's that's my little plug for the teTeX Talk. Since then,
I started a podcast almost a year ago in June,
where I interview people who have reinvented themselves in some way.
So whether they've retired and they are not looking for
their what's next, or they are looking for a new career,
or perhaps I've you know, I've interviewed people where they's
house has passed away and now suddenly they find themselves

(01:02:02):
as a widow and they're young, they have kids or whatever,
and how do I move forward? Now I'm a whole
new me and I don't know.

Speaker 7 (01:02:09):
What to do with that.

Speaker 5 (01:02:10):
So it's fascinating. I love it and I get to
talk to people. We do about two a month, we
try to. We're doing every other week, so we have
like nineteen episodes right now. Next one will come out
next week.

Speaker 3 (01:02:20):
So you said you're going to be a journalist at first, yes,
and then switch to meteorologies?

Speaker 5 (01:02:24):
Whether yes?

Speaker 4 (01:02:25):
Okase?

Speaker 7 (01:02:25):
Why I?

Speaker 5 (01:02:26):
Well, I originally went to I wanted to write for
a newspaper. That was my goal, and I studied journalism
in college. And when I started work, well, first of all,
I looked for a job for two years after I
graduated from college and could not find a job. I
sent resume tapes all over the country. I drove to
interviews all over the country. I met with news directors. Hey,
I'm going to be in town. Hah huh, because I'm

(01:02:47):
driving six hours to pretend like I'm in town so
I could try to get in front of them to
give me a job. And they all told me you
look too young, you sound too young, You'll never make
it on TV. You need to think about doing something
behind the scenes. Just give it up. But I just refused.
I just this was my dream. I wanted to do
TV news. So I finally got that job. And after
working so hard and doing all these internships and I

(01:03:08):
started actually working. I hated it.

Speaker 4 (01:03:12):
Really, it was fun as hell.

Speaker 5 (01:03:17):
Well, are you an extrovert or an introvert?

Speaker 4 (01:03:20):
Can to help me out there? Yeah, you're both.

Speaker 5 (01:03:21):
Okay, he's an ambivert Okay, Now he's an extrovert, I
think so. I think so, I'm a super big introvert.
So for me to go to you know, a big
crowd of journalists and have to stick my hand my microphone,
I was scared to death. I hated it. I would
get heart palpitation. It was awful. And so between that

(01:03:43):
and then I actually had a TV station in South Bend,
Indiana that wanted me to do weekend weather, and so
of course I told him, sure, I would love to
do the weather. I've always wanted to do the weather,
which I knew nothing about it. So they trained me
enough to get me on TV. And then at that point,
with all of these things happening at once, I was like, Okay,
I think I need to switch to weather, and so
I went back to college.

Speaker 3 (01:04:03):
Did you like the combined environment of it? In other words?
In other words, when you walk into a newscast, you
don't know if it's going to be a shooting, a bombing,
a murder, a scandal, something to do with politics, something
to do with local politics, whatever they may be. But
you never really knew day to day. With the weather,
it is a set thing.

Speaker 5 (01:04:21):
You go in.

Speaker 3 (01:04:22):
You know you're talking about one thing and one thing only.
Was that very attractive?

Speaker 5 (01:04:25):
I think so yes. I don't think I would have
put the words on it at that time, okay, but
now I think looking back, absolutely yes.

Speaker 3 (01:04:31):
And then you've seen many iterations of the technology that
use I mean it's become kind of a laughing stock,
a little bit off. I mean, how many dopplers can
you have?

Speaker 7 (01:04:40):
Right?

Speaker 3 (01:04:40):
I mean, and we used to joke, you know, we
wonder who is naming the dopplers for the news stations
because they would have to outdoppler each other every time
a new doppler.

Speaker 4 (01:04:48):
Came into town. Do you have the five thousand, we
have the six super.

Speaker 3 (01:04:50):
Double Doppler or five thousand cloud penetration transparency machine.

Speaker 5 (01:04:55):
Yeah, they all work the same way, but yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:04:57):
KR one Dash five we have the Titan right exactly.
But when all of that tech started hitting, did it
take any of the human away from it? And when
AI started hitting, you know, and we heard initially when
AI hit that that was going to be one of
the places it was really going to shine. It was
weather prediction that they would be able to take these
models in, decipher that information pretty quickly, and then give

(01:05:18):
you a really kind of robust weather report. Do you
find that to be the case.

Speaker 5 (01:05:22):
I kind of feel like there's there's two different avenues
you can go here. It's sort of like saying that
when you just say AI, you know, AI chat GPT
is very different from flying cars, yes, right, yes, so
machine learning versus all these other types of AI. So
same thing with weather. The modeling I think is and
already is fantastic. The things that you can put into

(01:05:43):
the computer models and then it can spit out and
become more accurate and learn from the mistakes of the past.
I think that is really going to be beneficial. I
will say, you know, I'm that way. I still don't
think it will take the person out of it, the
human out of it, because you still need somebody to
interpret it. The AI can't interpret it. It just spits
out the data and then a real person has to

(01:06:04):
like figure it out. But what I do worry about is,
of course the AI videos and somebody taking my face
and making me talk and now they don't need me
anymore because they're just manipulating somebody's fake voice.

Speaker 3 (01:06:19):
And yeah, but so they can't do that yet though,
right they can't take your They still can't take your
likeness without your information or your or your permission, right,
AA stuff to do that. As a matter of fact,
one of the reasons we talk about this all the time.
Val Kilmer, the fall, the actor that just passed I
guess a couple of years ago whatever he is about
to be in a movie with and he they're ai
ing him into a movie.

Speaker 5 (01:06:39):
Oh wow.

Speaker 3 (01:06:39):
So and then I just read a story last week
about a company that is using all of the models
they're using that are online for all of their ads
or all AI created models, all their male models, all
their female models. None of them are real, actual people.
They had to pay to sit for a modeling session.
They just kind of they just requested them via prompt

(01:07:00):
and uh and off we go.

Speaker 5 (01:07:01):
Yeah, and you just change their clothes or their hair
and tell it what you want and it creates a
new person.

Speaker 3 (01:07:06):
And it's interesting because in the era of people selling
their catalogs of music. You and I were just talking
about what kind of music do you like? Which is
cool because you like eighties kind of hair metal, which
is kind of fun. You're an eighties rocker, which I love.

Speaker 4 (01:07:18):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (01:07:19):
But you know, it's just a matter of time, you know,
these you know, these bands now as a as their
touring abilities and there as their audience kind of gets
a little bit older and they're not doing shows and
making money anymore, a lot of these guys will cash
out their their catalogs for you know, people to use
them and ads and stuff, and you wonder how long
that's even going to be like viable, and instead of that,

(01:07:39):
it's going to be just now, hey, look just sign
an AI likeness deal with me and then we'll do
the rest. We can use your likeness, we can use
your music, we can have you read copy that you're
really not reading. You know, you can just put parameters
on what you want them to do or not to do,
and then kind of off we go.

Speaker 5 (01:07:56):
There is a meteorologist right now that is doing this.
Her name is Amy Freeze, and yes that's her actual name.
But she sells I don't want to say she sells
herself because I don't really mean it that way, but
you know, she sells her likeness or and she reads
stuff so that AI can train itself. And then they
we had at a conference. They did this little demonstration
for us, and they showed her just wearing different outfits

(01:08:17):
and doing different forecasts, and none of the videos were
actually her.

Speaker 3 (01:08:21):
Right, were they scary good?

Speaker 5 (01:08:23):
They were scary good? Yeah, even even now where you
can still kind of tell where.

Speaker 4 (01:08:27):
The lips a little bit.

Speaker 5 (01:08:29):
Yeah, some weird thing. It does scare me.

Speaker 6 (01:08:33):
It scares me.

Speaker 8 (01:08:34):
A lot.

Speaker 4 (01:08:34):
That's it, really, it does.

Speaker 3 (01:08:35):
Yeah, you know it's weird be we think about that
here as well, because you think, well, obviously they have
as many hours of my voice, Jack's voice, Dev's voices
as you could possibly want.

Speaker 7 (01:08:44):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:08:44):
Unfortunately, we do have a contract with a company. They
have to pay us to do this now. But theoretically
they could come up put our next deal and say, hey,
I tell you what, how would you like to work
three days a week. We'll pay you this and the
other two days we'll use AI to create a show
that does just interviews or talks about just music or this,
and we're gonna use your voice and then program it
to do what we want. We just want people to
hear your voice while we're doing it, and they.

Speaker 5 (01:09:06):
Have learned, even if they wanted it to be like
your marriage. Yeah, it's learned the.

Speaker 4 (01:09:11):
Way you act and the ums. Yeah uh yeah. But
so I think the challenge is really for people to
accept it, right because the technology we know, it's if
it's not there, it's close, it's growing exponentially. It's building
upon itself. It's only getting better, so the ability to
do it will be there, But it's people. It's the

(01:09:34):
backlash against AI because they recognize when you go to
a movie and it's AI actors, then you what you
realize is you're costing human jobs and how long before
they come for your job? So I think that's why
there's this the initial backlash, at least in in in
gen z uh the they don't they use it for

(01:09:59):
like and to get things done, but when it comes
to artistic and creative outlets, I think there's a rebellion
against it, at least with a younger audience. I do
agree with that.

Speaker 3 (01:10:12):
I just wonder how long that's gonna last. Because I
remember that there was a CGI rebellion, and then there
was a pro tools rebellion. People wanted their Oh no,
we're not gonna put it on pro tools. We're gonna
record this the way we did back in the day,
you know, with with you know, four inch tape and
redubbs and stuff like that. And then you realize, Wow,
I can make that album.

Speaker 4 (01:10:30):
In a week as opposed to six months, or I
can make this I can make this movie in six
months as opposed to eighteen months. Because I'm spending all
this time on CGI. Multi billion dollar corporations are not
going to stop trying.

Speaker 3 (01:10:45):
No, they're not to get it out there. Yeah, but
you're right though, it's just how much the customer will tolerate.
And you know they'll find that parameter out pretty quickly.

Speaker 4 (01:10:54):
Yeah, real quick. We had a text come in Amy.
You mentioned your podcast earlier. What's the name and where
it can be?

Speaker 7 (01:11:00):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (01:11:00):
Thank you Jack. It's actually called Reinvention at any Age
with Amy Sweezy. The video version is on YouTube, and
then the audio version is everywhere else, including on iHeart.

Speaker 4 (01:11:10):
Yeah Heart, yeah player, you are good, Lord of Mercy.
I don't have a podcast on iHeart. It's this it's I.

Speaker 5 (01:11:18):
Think we're on it right now.

Speaker 3 (01:11:20):
Do you do it from your house?

Speaker 1 (01:11:21):
I do?

Speaker 4 (01:11:22):
Yeah, it's cool. Get little studio and well, I mean
not really.

Speaker 5 (01:11:25):
It's my corner of my office with a little plant
behind me and some books. Yeah, I got a fancy
little microphone.

Speaker 3 (01:11:32):
Sorry four one text us at seven seven zero three one.
Don't forget your four o'clock Heyward his family, that's f
A M.

Speaker 15 (01:11:40):
I L Y.

Speaker 3 (01:11:41):
Slide over to real radio out of him and send
that away for your chance at one thousand dollars.

Speaker 4 (01:11:45):
Back in a second with more of the Jim Colbert Show.

Speaker 12 (01:11:50):
After Morning, Colbert into our wonderful guests today, Amy so Yes,
Discord Discamp Weekend was this weekend and it was a blast,
killer time, wicked's fun.

Speaker 7 (01:11:59):
We all all loved seeing everyone out there.

Speaker 11 (01:12:02):
I had all the guests that came out on Saturday,
and I'll.

Speaker 2 (01:12:05):
Tell you what, I just cannot wait till November friends
giving Discamp coming back. But also, Jimmy, what do you
call a.

Speaker 1 (01:12:11):
Ston with two splits?

Speaker 3 (01:12:13):
I don't know, buddy, what ken double jointed?

Speaker 1 (01:12:15):
Obviously? Okay, big he's.

Speaker 3 (01:12:18):
Fast by they you gotta wait a second, let me
take my guest because it's a recording, and then you
yell out the answer.

Speaker 4 (01:12:25):
Maybe since you have to be ready to go, you
that's what it is. We're gonna be faster on the uptake. Therefore,
twenty Welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show, Real Radio
one Tozer four point one. I'm Jim Amy sweezey and
with us today.

Speaker 3 (01:12:37):
He happy than you be here, deeply appreciate Jack is
with us as well, back from vacation.

Speaker 4 (01:12:42):
Yeah, I am yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:12:43):
When you come in here, are you what do you
feel like? What would you think today was going to
be like? Because you and I have never done this before.
You're always here with deb right.

Speaker 4 (01:12:51):
Question, right right? I didn't know.

Speaker 5 (01:12:54):
I wasn't sure.

Speaker 3 (01:12:55):
What was your perception of me coming in here before that?
Did you think I was gonna be a little agro
or what'd you think?

Speaker 5 (01:13:01):
Aggressive?

Speaker 6 (01:13:02):
Yeeah?

Speaker 5 (01:13:03):
Is that what the kids are saying?

Speaker 4 (01:13:04):
These? Come on, man, get out of here. Can't you
see my skinny gens? This is how I talk?

Speaker 1 (01:13:09):
Right?

Speaker 5 (01:13:09):
I should have known better. I mean, I didn't know,
right because we know each other outside of this, and
I've heard you on the radio, but those are two
very different things they are, And it's so.

Speaker 3 (01:13:20):
Funny we were just talking. Although I've seen you at
the poker tournament, I've seen you other charity events. I've
actually seen you in this building, but you and I
have never had a long, firm conversation ever. I mean,
there really be no reason for us too, I guess,
but we've never really had a talk.

Speaker 11 (01:13:34):
You know.

Speaker 5 (01:13:34):
Well, you did tell me earlier that I had pretty eyes,
So if you're going to compliment me like you can
just talk to me all day long, that's fine.

Speaker 4 (01:13:41):
You had a great smile, Yes, you do have a
great smile.

Speaker 5 (01:13:44):
I'll take all the compliments, Thank you, all.

Speaker 3 (01:13:46):
Right, four O seven nine six four one. Again you
can always text us seven seven zero three one. We
have a fascination with auctions of odd stuff on this show, okay,
And anytime something comes up for grabs for auction, we
try to kind of guess exactly how much it's going
to be before the auction. This one I got after
the auctions. We already kind of know the number, and
I wanted to see how you if you guys can

(01:14:08):
kind of guess what you think this went for?

Speaker 4 (01:14:10):
Oh, what is the item? What are you for? Auction?

Speaker 7 (01:14:12):
All right?

Speaker 3 (01:14:12):
So, and we've done this for like you know, whether
it be movie memorabilia, sports memorabilia, whatever the case may be,
it doesn't really have a parameter whatever. If we find
it interesting, we'll talk about.

Speaker 5 (01:14:23):
Have you ever actually been on one of these items.

Speaker 4 (01:14:26):
Actually getting ross to it? One time didn't ross bit
on a piece of art. He'd been on a piece
of art that was not an item of note, well
that we knew about. He right, he brought it to us.
It was this like big art piece that was sliced
up into a thousand pieces, and then they auctioned off
each slice of the arm line. Oh my yeah, and
he got one of the slice.

Speaker 3 (01:14:46):
Yeah, and it wasn't terrible. It was a couple hundred
bucks or something like that. But he's got a piece
of it.

Speaker 7 (01:14:50):
This is not that.

Speaker 3 (01:14:51):
This is something that you could see would have some
value in one of the best conversation starters if you
had this in a case in your house. This is
a life jacket that was actually worn by a Titanic survivor. Wow, yeah,
this is a life check.

Speaker 5 (01:15:04):
How do you prove that?

Speaker 4 (01:15:05):
Well, I mean, I guess because they took it off
the person. No, they survived.

Speaker 5 (01:15:09):
So yeah, oho, hello, I missed that part. We thought
it was at the bottom of the ocean.

Speaker 4 (01:15:14):
Is out of Lune.

Speaker 3 (01:15:15):
It's his life jacket, worn by a passenger on the
RMS Titanic as she escaped the sinking steamship on a
lifeboat sold at auction this past Saturday. The flotation device
was worn by Laura Mabel Frankatlly, a first class passenger
on the doomed ocean liner, and is actually signed by
her and other survivors from that same lifeboat.

Speaker 5 (01:15:35):
Oh that adds value.

Speaker 3 (01:15:36):
So not only do you get the life vest, you
get her signature. The person that was issued to plus
other people that she was on the lifeboat with, which
is also unbelievable when you think about it. Now, we've
heard that things that sell from this boat are simply amazing.
We've started China. Matter of fact, they have here one time,
it says, a seat cushion from one of the lifeboats
sold one time for quite a bit of money. And

(01:15:56):
I'm not going to tell you because I don't want
to give you an idea where it is. But we've
seen this a lot, everything from china to clothing to
different items that they were able to pick up around
the Titanic during dives or whatever. Not much of it's there,
but we do have some. What do you guys think
this went for?

Speaker 4 (01:16:14):
Take a guess.

Speaker 3 (01:16:16):
By the way, the Titanic has as many passengers as
the boat you were just on, so you were on
about the same size as the Titanic.

Speaker 5 (01:16:23):
Wow, man, I don't know. I didn't even know what
to guess. Is it crazy to say like millions?

Speaker 3 (01:16:28):
It's not crazy to say anything.

Speaker 4 (01:16:30):
I will say.

Speaker 3 (01:16:31):
Let me give you Let me give you a little
bit of a parameter. Here a record auction for a
piece of the Titanic Titanic memorabilia is one and a
half million pounds almost two million dollars for a gold
pocket watch given to the captain.

Speaker 4 (01:16:43):
Okay, that went for two million. I'll go half of that.
I'll go one million.

Speaker 5 (01:16:47):
Yeah, I'm thinking the life jacket is like a little less,
although it is signed by a bunch of people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, value.

Speaker 4 (01:16:53):
So what do you like one and the hand?

Speaker 5 (01:16:55):
Yeah, I was going to say like one point two.

Speaker 4 (01:16:57):
Oh, there you go.

Speaker 3 (01:16:59):
What do you think million? Nine hundred and six thousand dollars?

Speaker 5 (01:17:02):
Oh, we both went over.

Speaker 3 (01:17:04):
Nine hundred six thousand dollars. Six hundred and six or
six hundred and seventy thousand pounds.

Speaker 4 (01:17:12):
Is what it went for.

Speaker 3 (01:17:13):
And you know, and it's gonna wind up, you know,
some of these things wind up being in these like
we had one here out here on I Drive for
a while, right, did we have a Titanic experience on
I Drive for a while where they put where they
brought some of the some of the stuff that they
they rescued from the site and put it on display
out there.

Speaker 5 (01:17:27):
I think they moved those around. It's like a mobile.

Speaker 3 (01:17:29):
I think so too. Yeah, they do that with the
parts of the Berlin Wall.

Speaker 7 (01:17:33):
There.

Speaker 3 (01:17:33):
For a while there were a guy, there was a
group of people traveling around with pieces of the Berlin
Wall and they would go to a bar and then
they would buy a schedule and the would tell you
to come out and look at the Berlin Wall.

Speaker 4 (01:17:42):
So, Jimmy, you've been on a cruise ship recently, So
have I. And you've seen those lifeboats that they have
on cruise ships, maybe eight per side. Yeah, you don't
look too big.

Speaker 3 (01:17:55):
They don't look like they can hold that many people.

Speaker 4 (01:17:58):
And so I did the math, and my ship they could.
How many people do you think they can fit in
one of those lifeboats?

Speaker 3 (01:18:06):
Now, the crazy thing is is they actually took up
at one of our stops. They took them down and
drove them around a little bit. Yeah, they did the
test on them, and they're bigger than you think. When
you when they're hanging on the boat and you're looking
at the boat from a port, they look kind of small.
It just so happened our room look right down on them,
and they're way bigger than you think.

Speaker 4 (01:18:23):
I think they don't. They hold like two hundred and
fifty to four hundred people or something. Four hundred and
sixty people.

Speaker 5 (01:18:29):
I would have never guessed that.

Speaker 4 (01:18:31):
But they stack them in like sardines. Yeah. It starts
leveled seating too, right, leveled seating, so you could have
someone's like feet in your face and they're just they're
cramming in them in there. But when you do the math,
that's like two thousand passengers at least on my boat,
it had enough to carry everybody if needed.

Speaker 5 (01:18:49):
Does it depend on the weight though of each person too?
I feel like that's got to play into it.

Speaker 3 (01:18:54):
I think that's what they do the muster station with, right,
isn't that what they would do? They would cause if
they have the muster station, they could act well. I mean,
they couldn't do the weight. I guess I'm not going
to ask you what you wait when you're up on board,
but many tells you in the buffet, dude, oh you're
in bout six.

Speaker 5 (01:19:06):
And you weigh thirty more when you get off the
ship than when you started.

Speaker 4 (01:19:10):
Get your fed ass and bout eight. I do appreciate
the modern day buster station. When I first started cruising,
you had to show up, oh my god, with your
life vest on and sit through a little lecture. And
now all you do is they have you go to
your must station with your card and you scan your
card and you're done.

Speaker 3 (01:19:26):
Dude, it's an app check in. For us, it was
literally an app check in.

Speaker 4 (01:19:30):
We went on on a link. They're like, okay, go
have fun.

Speaker 5 (01:19:32):
I'm like, now you know where to go, just in
case I'm.

Speaker 4 (01:19:35):
Not gonna die, right because I did have the app
here and I don't even know where MYSS is in
the cab and they didn't tell us anything. There is
no information check in. Go drink, have a good time.

Speaker 7 (01:19:45):
That's it.

Speaker 4 (01:19:46):
That's why cruising is so great. Oh my god, do
you like it?

Speaker 2 (01:19:49):
I do?

Speaker 11 (01:19:50):
I do.

Speaker 4 (01:19:50):
That's the last time you went.

Speaker 5 (01:19:53):
Last spring break?

Speaker 3 (01:19:54):
Good for you.

Speaker 4 (01:19:55):
Do you remember where you went?

Speaker 5 (01:19:56):
But my very first cruise wasn't until twenty nineteen, right
before COVID was my very first cruise, and since.

Speaker 4 (01:20:02):
Then she has been on thousands of cruises. No, but
four have you really for you?

Speaker 8 (01:20:07):
Like?

Speaker 1 (01:20:08):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:20:08):
I think if anyone turns on the television on the
Carnival cruise, they see you.

Speaker 5 (01:20:12):
Don't that's right, So yeah, I have to I have
to plug that. I actually do some work with Carnival.

Speaker 4 (01:20:16):
That's cool.

Speaker 5 (01:20:17):
I don't forecast for them, but I work with their
communications team, so we put together weather videos and they
air on the ships so forever on a Carnival cruise
and you're watching there because what you do on a cruise,
of course, is stay in your room and watch TV. Right, yeah, sure,
So when you're in your room, put it on and
you find the good to know channel, you will find
what's good to know is how to handle different kinds

(01:20:39):
of weather when you're on the cruse.

Speaker 1 (01:20:40):
Shop.

Speaker 4 (01:20:40):
We had a text to reach out today and said
they just saw they were on the carnival ship and
saw your video.

Speaker 5 (01:20:45):
Oh great, yeah, it's fun, very nice, all right.

Speaker 3 (01:20:48):
Four seven nine one six four one text us seven
seven zero three one. There is a new concept coming
to eye Edrive. Now look here an eye Drive in
Central Florida. People who live here, we have dealt with
the metamorphosis of I Drive over the last twenty thirty
forty years as the entertainment hub of Central Florida, as
Church Street kind of shut down, and it's the tourist

(01:21:08):
capital of Central Florida as well. But I have to
tell you, you know, outside of the dinner theaters and
all the other stuff that litter I edrive. They have
a concept for something I think could be super cool
and a lot of fun. And I'll tell you exactly
what that is next, Jimmy, mister Jane, Yes, sir, DJ yes, sir.

Speaker 7 (01:21:32):
Yes, Hey, how you guys doing it?

Speaker 1 (01:21:36):
Good?

Speaker 8 (01:21:37):
Buddy, you talked to us this morning, Buddy, One last
Miss Monster Daytona be picture.

Speaker 1 (01:21:45):
It would be great on.

Speaker 4 (01:21:46):
Jimmy to see who said I wouldn't say yes, you said,
is it's a cool That's what he said.

Speaker 7 (01:21:53):
We old people need it.

Speaker 4 (01:21:54):
That's so funny. That's so funny.

Speaker 3 (01:21:56):
Would I be up for doing one last Miss Monster?

Speaker 11 (01:21:58):
Man?

Speaker 4 (01:21:58):
I may be able to get talked into that on
guitar on guitar. Yeah, yeah, we didn't. We're at an
unpano player. I don't know you heard, all right? For
seven nine one six one o four one text seven
seven zero three one grand.

Speaker 3 (01:22:11):
By the way, g R A N D. That is
your five o'clock keyword. Get over to real Radio dot
FM and send that away for your chance at a
thousand bucks. Guys, Grand, that is your five o'clock keyword.

Speaker 4 (01:22:21):
Good luck.

Speaker 3 (01:22:21):
We hope you win for sure, get that grand.

Speaker 4 (01:22:24):
Welcome back. I'm jim Amy Sweezey with us today.

Speaker 5 (01:22:25):
Hey there, Happy Monday, and Jack.

Speaker 4 (01:22:27):
Is as well. Yeah, all right, Jack out on I Drive.
You know, we've lived here for quite a while, and
he's lived here quite a while.

Speaker 3 (01:22:34):
Did you ever venture out to I Drive for entertainment
for you and the fam? Like maybe you go out
there for a dinner show.

Speaker 4 (01:22:38):
Or something like that.

Speaker 5 (01:22:39):
Sure wonder works and believe it or not, all those
fun prices.

Speaker 9 (01:22:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:22:43):
Well, and I think EYE Drive has done a pretty
good job at morphing in and out of some of
these different kind of I don't know, eras of entertainment
out there. You know, we had American Gladiators out there
at one point, remember yep, they hard Rock had the
hard Rock Vault. Yeah for a while with a lot
of their memorabilia that they just have stored in the place.

Speaker 4 (01:23:04):
So that was a museum for a while. The whole
Mercado Plaza with cricketers has now changed and now they
have Icon Park. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:23:12):
Now they have that giant Mangoes bar that's like Gigantic,
all these other bar brands, and it really has come
alive out there. It hit a weird pit there after
like the nineties, like nobody know nobody knew if anybody
was gonna go out there, and then they kind of
started rebuilding it. New vendors and new investors started coming
in and kind of revived it. Now I Drive is
kind of back at it got some cool stuff going

(01:23:32):
out there. If you live in Orlando, we try to
avoid that a little b unless you're going down there
for something cool like the like the Vine Vine and
dine this weekend at ever Lates for our buddiess at Rosen.

Speaker 4 (01:23:41):
Yeah, they got Tom's watch bar. The uh that's a
cool place. And the video screen on that which you
cannot miss from my ford right by sand Lake. Yeah,
I mean wraps around the building. It's just a constant
Disney advertisement. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:23:54):
So I mean I Drive kind of back a little bit. Well,
they've added something out there, Jack that we haven't seen
in Orlando before. Or This is not another dinner show,
not another any of that thing. But I have to
tell you, I think this has legs and it could
be a lot of fun, and it could be something
like we do at the station, like as a station event.

Speaker 4 (01:24:10):
I think we could do this here. Not an escape room.

Speaker 3 (01:24:12):
Not an escape room, they.

Speaker 4 (01:24:14):
Have plenty of those.

Speaker 5 (01:24:15):
Not a pirate show.

Speaker 3 (01:24:16):
Not a pirate show. They got at least one of those.
It's not a dinner theater or a mystery dinner theater
because we know Sluica is shut down. And you know,
I said the other day, I think they should reboot
that again because dinner theaters and dinner mystery experiences are cool, right,
I told Amy.

Speaker 4 (01:24:34):
So there's an evolved pickleball.

Speaker 5 (01:24:36):
It does not involved pickleball, but that is a really
good guess.

Speaker 4 (01:24:40):
It's an okay guess, don't get carried away that skydiving
Oh they have that have the endoor sky diving thing?
Here it is Jack, You're ready? What do you got?

Speaker 3 (01:24:47):
It's called the Great Big Game Show on Eydrive. And
what they're doing is they're building a stage to look
exactly like a television produced game show. Okay, you go in,
and it's a an interactive sixty minute game show experience,
puts guests on a sound stage complete with light sound effects,
and then splits them into teams for fast paced series

(01:25:10):
of many games. They're designing it to feel like a
classic TV game show. I'm telling you, I think this
is a super cool idea.

Speaker 5 (01:25:20):
Will they televise it? Do you think I don't know
to stream it.

Speaker 4 (01:25:23):
Maybe they probably, I don't know, could Yeah, there you go,
It's aid. The competitive energy show showed up almost immediately.
Friends who were ride laughing and joking quickly transported formed
into serious teammates and not so subtle rivals, and as
the score climb, the pressure built. Five games, five different

(01:25:44):
challenges and different skills with different personalities, risk taking, wordplay,
quick decision making. Starts with a game called spin Out,
goes to a game called Blockchain, into a game called
Letter Roll, into a game called Major Minors, and then
with a game called chip Shot, and all of those
games your team plays against the other team to decide

(01:26:06):
the winner. It's an hour long experience, which is similar
to like an escape room. I think that's the normal
time for escape room, right, because after an hour they
just come fish you out of there, right. And it
also sounds like something you'd see on the cruise ship.
It does, Yeah, it does. It is packed with attractions.
I Drive has been that way for a while.

Speaker 3 (01:26:22):
Game show stands up because it's fully interactive and group driven,
easy to imagine as a go to for birthdays, nights
out with friends, family outings, and even office team building.
That's the first thing I thought about this with us
because here real we're kind of competitive, and we have
three different brands, you know, and if you include Tom
and Dan, four different brands, and I think it would
be a lot of fun. Do you get a big

(01:26:43):
bunch of listeners in there and us as personalities get
divided up on teams with a blind draw, Jack.

Speaker 5 (01:26:49):
Oh, wouldn't be liked.

Speaker 3 (01:26:52):
It would be a blind draw and we could actually
as real radio we could take on some news stations
if we wanted to or not a radio station. Dude,
this would be I'm telling you, I think that is
a stone cold winner of an idea. And now it
doesn't say how much it is. That's the only thing. Yeah,
it doesn't say how much it is. How much you

(01:27:13):
guys think it is.

Speaker 5 (01:27:13):
It's got to be the same as an escape room
rights something.

Speaker 3 (01:27:17):
Yeah, and let me says it says a booking here.
Let me say I just saw a booking prizes, right, Yeah,
I think they have prizes the who nine yards. But
here's the thing.

Speaker 4 (01:27:23):
You could do that yourself. I mean, you know, we
could go in there and say, you know, if we
were to do a team building thing, or maybe do
a real radio team against you know, maybe Channel two
or Channel six or whatever. We could put up a prize,
you know, maybe a charity prize. You know, maybe if
we win, we get you know, if it's like five
grand or whatever, we get three thousand goes to our
favorite charity and they get two thousand goals of theirs

(01:27:45):
or whatever.

Speaker 5 (01:27:47):
That's a great idea. I think you're onto something.

Speaker 4 (01:27:49):
Thank you appreciate it. Or we could just do our
own right. We could jack and we take a game
show for each one of the shows and we call
it face Real Radio. Oh my god. And then you
have to compete in the Triple R trivia in the
front time the street and then Chase Yes Trivia live

(01:28:09):
on stage. Let's do that, dude. I am down for this.
Never been done before. I'm so down for this. It's
so funny because I'm getting scared already because I went
to click on it and uh, they've got the merchant stuff.

Speaker 5 (01:28:22):
You've already bought tickets. He already put in his credit card.

Speaker 4 (01:28:26):
There's selling merch do their logo as good as hell
to it. It's sell e merged before they're open. What's
say sloth World? Oh, they're in trouble. Have you seen
that story? Yeah, someone texted get out of here with that. Yeah.
It doesn't say it just says when you. It says, uh,
hold on, let me see if I can. It says
gift cards. Where you can buy a gift card. I'll
choose an option here.

Speaker 5 (01:28:46):
Are they already open?

Speaker 1 (01:28:47):
Um?

Speaker 4 (01:28:48):
Yeah, it says, it says it's allowing me to do it,
but it doesn't say they're open yet. Add the card.

Speaker 8 (01:28:54):
Let me.

Speaker 3 (01:28:54):
Oh forty dollars okay, I mean forty dollars for an.

Speaker 5 (01:28:58):
Hour if you have a family of five.

Speaker 4 (01:29:02):
You know what it's comparable to? Every isn't that's a
little lot thing else. I went a lot downtown Orlando.
Downtown Orlando in the Centrust Garage. Twenty five bucks. That's
sick at night. Twenty five bucks. That's so sick. I'm like, man,
I got a factor. That is, I'm used to paying ten, fifteen,
twenty on the big events, but now it's just flat

(01:29:22):
twenty five dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:29:23):
H Yeah, Well forty bucks is like a beer and
popcorn at any of the major event centers here, whether
it be Doctor Phillips or the for the Arena everything. Yeah,
I would tell you, I think this is a really
cool idea, and I would do this in five seconds.
I hope they reach out and do some advertising or
we have a rep that's going out there, because I
think we could crush this.

Speaker 4 (01:29:40):
This would be a blast, dude, Like I'm total blast.
Called them in called the Great Big Game Show.

Speaker 5 (01:29:46):
I'm thinking these they must be simple, right, because I'm
I'm already having heart palpitations about Oh but what about
the rules, and I don't know how to play?

Speaker 4 (01:29:54):
And then I'll get yes, all right, I'll explain some
of the guesstia. When you're playing in trivia. It's one
thing when you're just you know, in playing trivia at
a bars on a cruise ship, but when you're doing
it in front of an audience, right, there's a different
level of pressure there.

Speaker 3 (01:30:10):
Well, you guys used to do the Face the File
File it on Universal Studios.

Speaker 4 (01:30:15):
We took all of our game shows and we adapted
them for the stage. And Todd, one of our game
show hosts, had podiums so you could hit the button
and chime in and you would know who was first
and keep score.

Speaker 3 (01:30:26):
It was it was a lot of fun. Yeah, that
was mayhem at that thing.

Speaker 4 (01:30:29):
I remember that.

Speaker 3 (01:30:29):
It starts with the game called Spinout, which is a
wheelbase game where the stakes escalate as you go, turning
every spin into a calculated risk. Then the game Blockchain
is a trivia driven round. The rewards teams who could
think fast and stay locked in under pressure. Are you
good at trivia?

Speaker 4 (01:30:44):
Do you guys do that you go at trivia? Night trivia?

Speaker 5 (01:30:46):
It depends on the topic.

Speaker 4 (01:30:48):
Oh really, yeah I could.

Speaker 5 (01:30:49):
I could do some Maides hairband trivia, Little weather trivia
is did.

Speaker 3 (01:30:54):
They move into a game called letter Roll, which is
a word and phrase game that felt tailor made for
the teammate who's great at solving puzzles out loud. Major
Miners is a buzzer style showdown that plays with popular
answers that can flip momentum in an instant, And they
wrapped up with chip Shots, which is a hands on
round where each chip triggers a different outcome and the
results can swing wildly based on where it lands.

Speaker 5 (01:31:18):
That one I thought was going to be a golf game.

Speaker 4 (01:31:20):
I did too, Yeah, but they're not gonna make people
play golf, not of ANDMN game show, that's for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:31:24):
But I love that idea. I love something new down
there that's cool. Yeah, yeah, because I mean it's full
of like go kart tracks and stuff like that. Having
something that's kind of unique. I wonder if it's that
price is going to be a little wild for people.
Forty bucks for an hour's a bit deep.

Speaker 4 (01:31:37):
Did you play any bingo or trivia on the cruise ship?

Speaker 3 (01:31:41):
We played trivia on the cruise ship.

Speaker 7 (01:31:43):
No bingo.

Speaker 3 (01:31:43):
They only had bingo one day out of seven.

Speaker 4 (01:31:45):
If you can imagine that. Bingo. The added a couple
of times, but the minimum price it was twenty nine
dollars and you got like a video screen and it
had three cards on it. But then it could go
up to one hundred and fifty bucks to have multiple
That's why my I didn't do it all electronic.

Speaker 3 (01:32:01):
She thought it was way too expensive. Now she goes
I used to go to bingo on cruise ships and
it was a lot of fun because for thirty bucks
you could go in there and sit for a couple
hours and have a good time. Man, thirty dollars a
cover charge, now, yeah, is ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (01:32:12):
And then the one thing I did not go into
what they had a deal or no deal, so they
had the official licensed dealer, no deal show. I'm not
sure how it worked because I didn't do it, but
again I think that was another forty dollars cost or more.
Damn get involved, all.

Speaker 3 (01:32:28):
Right, four seven nine one six one four one text
us at seven seven zero three one, Jack, there's a.

Speaker 4 (01:32:33):
Mystery out there right now. What's the mystery?

Speaker 3 (01:32:35):
Well, I'm gonna tell you when we get back. But
this is not a conspiratorial thing.

Speaker 4 (01:32:39):
This is legit.

Speaker 3 (01:32:40):
This is a legit mystery, all right, all right, and
we can try to figure out what's going on.

Speaker 4 (01:32:45):
We'll do that next.

Speaker 3 (01:32:58):
Welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show. Right, you go
one to four point one grand. By the way, that's
g R, A and D. That is your five o'clock keyword.
Get over to real radio out of him and send
that away for your chance at one thousand dollars grand. Guys,
that is your five o'clock keyword.

Speaker 4 (01:33:10):
Good luck. We hope you win. I'm Jim. There's Amy Sweezy.

Speaker 5 (01:33:13):
That's me.

Speaker 3 (01:33:17):
Jack is here as well. That's her trivia coming up
in just a few minutes. Amy has a podcast, did
a couple of times a month. Tell everybody about that
real quick, do you thank you?

Speaker 4 (01:33:26):
Yes.

Speaker 5 (01:33:26):
Reinvention at any Age is the title. We have nineteen
episodes so far, and I interview people who have reinvented
their life.

Speaker 3 (01:33:32):
Anybody we be recognized from the area that a name,
we be recognized from the Orlando area.

Speaker 5 (01:33:37):
You know, I've had quite a few people on that
are from this area, because right, you start with the
guests that you know personally, So yeah, that I did.
But many of you, of course probably remember Jana Banana.

Speaker 4 (01:33:47):
Yeah of course, yes, yeap here with you both.

Speaker 5 (01:33:49):
So she was one of my guests. Pedro Espado was
one of my newest ones. He is the lead singer
for a Rocket.

Speaker 4 (01:33:55):
Fly Oh yeah, yeah, that's a great guy, by the way.

Speaker 5 (01:33:58):
But also Voyage, the Journey tribute band. I did not
know that is now the lead singer for Voyage and
they travel all over They played at hard Rock or
Sorry no no no, They played at House of Blues
in January and they're selling out shows all over the country.

Speaker 3 (01:34:11):
So when for people who do not live here in Orlando,
there was a rock bar here in Orlando called the
Post Time Lounge. Oh yes, on seventeen ninety two and
four thirty four and again for people out of the area,
you would not know. It's a little outside of Orlando
and the outskirts, but it was the place to go
see a rock and roll show, and actually the only
place in Orlando outside of like the Green Parrot or

(01:34:32):
other places like that, where you could see a legit
rock show with a real back line, you know, a
dance floor, good food, good drinks on nine yards. Unfortunately,
they just closed up, but Rock and Fly was one
of the standard rotations there and they were by far
the best local band out. They wasn't even close.

Speaker 5 (01:34:46):
Really absolutely, I've been a big fan of theirs for years.

Speaker 7 (01:34:49):
Yeah, really good.

Speaker 4 (01:34:50):
That's cool man.

Speaker 5 (01:34:50):
Yeah, so Pedro was I guess.

Speaker 3 (01:34:52):
Never even knew that dude's name, but I've seen him
play one hundred shows and he.

Speaker 5 (01:34:55):
Did not speak until he was three years old.

Speaker 4 (01:34:57):
No way. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:34:58):
Yeah, you know Savanna would be in an have a
good guest for your show. You're talking about a total
reinvention from a radio personality to like a you know.

Speaker 4 (01:35:05):
She's now she's a uh.

Speaker 5 (01:35:08):
Yeah, and you know she was in the Marine Corps.

Speaker 4 (01:35:10):
Yeah, she sure was form a marine.

Speaker 5 (01:35:11):
She also gets her hair done where I get my
hair done.

Speaker 3 (01:35:13):
So I could probably ask her, you got an in
I get you that heads up. And by the way,
she's a wonderful interview. She's also done a Ted talk.

Speaker 5 (01:35:20):
Oh I did not know that.

Speaker 4 (01:35:21):
Yeah, dude, I mean she's in it. I mean, I
gotta tell you, I think she's.

Speaker 3 (01:35:24):
One of the most impressive people I've ever worked with.
And I'm I have no problem saying that. Whatsoever I
worked whe her, I saw her entire career happen from
what she did when she began. I'm not going to
do that to her, but from what she began as
to where she is now. You know, after she left
The Monsters, which was a guaranteed big time gig, I
mean that show was massive, and when she was there,

(01:35:45):
she was a gigantic part of it. And she went
out to California kind of did some stuff out there,
and then came back here and started the Gator thing
and has completely and utterly reinvented her entire career and
really has reached levels what that thing was. She travels
all over the world studying these crocodiles and reptilians so
she can come back here and tell people about it.

Speaker 4 (01:36:05):
At Gatorland. She's a complete an incredible success story. I
love it.

Speaker 5 (01:36:10):
I'm putting her on my list. I'm gonna call her.

Speaker 3 (01:36:12):
I'm serious, dude you And by the way, and she's fun, Yes, Yeah,
she's a lot of fun. And she's good on camera.
She's really good on social She'll help you out there
as well.

Speaker 5 (01:36:19):
That's always good.

Speaker 4 (01:36:20):
Get the word out, all right.

Speaker 3 (01:36:22):
So I said right before we went to break that
there was a conspiracy out there. I'm kind of springing
this on. By the way, I'm kind of reading this
as we go. I've only kind of read a little
bit about this. But Jack, what do you know about
these missing scientists?

Speaker 13 (01:36:36):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:36:36):
Did you read about this?

Speaker 4 (01:36:37):
I've seen one headline that like there's a dozen or
maybe a dozen and a half missing scientists that we
don't know where they are. Do not know where they are?

Speaker 5 (01:36:48):
Yes, I've heard this. They they're the in the know
with a certain topic.

Speaker 3 (01:36:51):
Yeah, there's a yes, nuclear I think nuclear science is
their forte and eleven of them have either gone missing
or they're dead. Whoa, It is crazy, like this is
a legit like we're trying to figure out what's going
on kind of story here.

Speaker 5 (01:37:09):
You want to believe it's a movie of the week,
but it's like real life.

Speaker 7 (01:37:11):
It is not.

Speaker 3 (01:37:13):
It says, we want to know everything that they know
about what happened to these scientists with these four agencies,
predominantly the agencies those eleven individuals were connected with. Goes
back to let's see. It says that notices have been
sent to the FBI, NASA, Department of Energy, and Department
of Defense because those were all of the all the

(01:37:34):
people were with those departments. So the FBI's work in
the case. Don't worry cash, we'll get it.

Speaker 5 (01:37:41):
We'll get some answers.

Speaker 4 (01:37:43):
Yeah, cash money Patel, Yeah, yeah, it says.

Speaker 3 (01:37:46):
On twenty April sixteenth, twenty twenty six, committee staff contacted
the Department seeking information on this matter. In response, the
Department confirmed that there are no active national security investigations
of any reported missing person who is a current or
former Department of War clearance holder and involved in special
access programs. However, the response leaves the committee without many

(01:38:09):
with many unanswered questions.

Speaker 5 (01:38:11):
Can you imagine being their family? Yeah, and just like
no answers, no one will tell you anything.

Speaker 3 (01:38:17):
And here I bean like Amy Eskridge. She died in
twenty twenty two, as Science for researching anti gravity technology.
Michael David Hicks, research scientists at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory,
worked on the Dark Project and Deep Space one mission.
Died July twenty third. Frank Maywold, principal researcher of NASA's
Jet Propulsion Laboratory Tory died July twenty twenty four. Anthony Chavez,

(01:38:41):
former employe at Los Alamos National Laboratory, missing since May
of last year.

Speaker 4 (01:38:46):
Okay, so missing a stranger than dying, Yes, but dying
it also depends on the circumstances as far as age,
cause of death.

Speaker 3 (01:38:53):
Monica Reza, a director of materials processing in NASA's Jet
Propulsion Laboratory. Do you hear something saying over and over?
NASA the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, missing since June of last year.
Melissa Cassius, administrative worker at Los Almos National Laboratory, missing
since June of last year. Stephen Garcia, government contractor and

(01:39:15):
new Mexican facility for the Kansas City National Security Campus,
missing August of last year.

Speaker 4 (01:39:21):
Why don't we have air tags on our important people?
Did I not say that before? I've said that one
hundred Why aren't we doing that. Why aren't we tagging
him like dogs? I'm chipping them. What's I go back
and listen to it, said director, and then tell me.

Speaker 3 (01:39:36):
Director of MIT's Plasma Science and Fusion Center died December
of last year. Astro physicists who worked on NASA's Neo
WISE and Neo Surveyor missions died February of this year.
Neil McCaslin, retired Air Force major general, missing since February
of last or this year. Pharmaceutical research are found dead

(01:39:56):
March twenty sixth. All these are tied into these these
propulsion programs or laboratories that deal with NASA or their
jet propulsion program or something like that.

Speaker 4 (01:40:06):
So it's crazy get sixty minutes on this case.

Speaker 5 (01:40:08):
Yeah, I feel like that might be who first broke it.
I think it might have been sixty minutes, was involved somehow?

Speaker 4 (01:40:14):
Yeah, I saw it.

Speaker 3 (01:40:15):
I saw it sporadically throughout the news cycle this morning.
What do you what have you read about a namy?

Speaker 10 (01:40:20):
Just that?

Speaker 5 (01:40:20):
And then also there the question is if it really
did happen, if it's legit, then is it some sort
of like government cover up or whatever, or there's the
other theory that it's some kind of alien something. I'm not,
but you know people are.

Speaker 4 (01:40:39):
Are you in that world?

Speaker 1 (01:40:40):
People are?

Speaker 5 (01:40:41):
No, I'm really, it doesn't.

Speaker 3 (01:40:42):
It doesn't entertain you at all, I guess.

Speaker 5 (01:40:44):
I mean it kind of because well I would.

Speaker 3 (01:40:47):
Think that I would think now more than ever though,
right because some of the because now the transparency has kind.

Speaker 5 (01:40:51):
Of they've actually admitted it.

Speaker 4 (01:40:53):
Yeah, it's a little bit more transparent now.

Speaker 9 (01:40:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:40:56):
I mean there's a isn't there a documentary out right now?

Speaker 4 (01:40:59):
Jack?

Speaker 3 (01:41:00):
I just saw it last night. We didn't start watching it.
But it is about all of the information and it's
all modern. I mean, they just have Marco Rubio speaking
as a Secretary of State in this thing and I
forget the name of it, but it's on Netflix right
now and it's in two hour long documentary about this
very thing, about all the information that's been released and

(01:41:20):
what we're what we have found not found.

Speaker 4 (01:41:23):
Netflix says a way to get those documentaries out.

Speaker 3 (01:41:26):
No, they don't, and you're not.

Speaker 5 (01:41:31):
You don't sound so crazy when you actually say this now.
I feel like a lot of years ago, if you
said something like aliens abducted them, you'd they ever know what?
No one would believe you, well, think about this.

Speaker 3 (01:41:39):
I mean you have some of the most you have.
I mean you have astronauts saying it. You have retired generals,
Air force generals, you have, you know, fighter pilots you have.
I mean, this is not Billy Bob who's had ten
beers on the back of his truck out in the middle.

Speaker 4 (01:41:55):
Of a field.

Speaker 3 (01:41:56):
These are like seasoned professionals who are in this world
saying I don't know that thing, just throw thirty mins,
flew thirty miles, thirty thousand miles per hour.

Speaker 4 (01:42:03):
And took a left. But if you're talking missing rocket
scientists and nuclear scientists, I wasn't thinking aliens. I was
thinking Iran, North Korea, that people with aspirations of them. Yeah,
and building a you know, a team to make rockets
that can make it too, you know, intercontinent continental ballistic missiles.

Speaker 3 (01:42:27):
And we know that because we kind of did this
and the hor Yeah yeah, didn't we kind of do
that and we got our Hey, if you don't want
to build smart people, go steal them.

Speaker 4 (01:42:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:42:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:42:37):
But and this, uh, this this documentary I was talking
about Amy is no joke.

Speaker 4 (01:42:42):
I mean, did you do you?

Speaker 3 (01:42:44):
Are you a Netflix person?

Speaker 1 (01:42:45):
You I do.

Speaker 5 (01:42:45):
Yep, I have Netflix and I love documentaries. Oh man,
I really do, more so than like the fake TV shows.

Speaker 4 (01:42:51):
Yeah, nerds like documentary. Is that what it is? Yeah?
He did. Yeah. I'm gonna tell you exactly.

Speaker 7 (01:42:56):
What this is.

Speaker 4 (01:42:57):
You want to learn something, You're going to spend the
invested time? Are sorry?

Speaker 3 (01:43:01):
You go check this out. It's called The Age of Disclosure.
This actually just came out last year. The only problem
is it's cost It's going to cost you. It's on
Amazon Prime though, It's going to cost you fifteen dollars
to watch.

Speaker 5 (01:43:11):
Yeah, but if you have an Amazon account, you get
it for free.

Speaker 4 (01:43:14):
Right unless No, now, because they don't known that they're
just being a minileman.

Speaker 5 (01:43:20):
They're going to make you pay.

Speaker 3 (01:43:22):
An explosive documentary that reveals an eighty year global cover
up of non human intelligent life and a secret war
among major nations to reverse engineer advanced technology of non
human origin. Featuring testimony from thirty four US government, military,
and intelligent community intelligence community insiders, the film exposes the

(01:43:44):
profound stakes for the future of humanity. Four and a
half stars.

Speaker 5 (01:43:48):
I just saw a clip of it with they've interviewed markco.

Speaker 3 (01:43:51):
Rubio yeah, yeah, I think a number of I said,
thirty four government officials and military ex military people.

Speaker 4 (01:43:58):
And look, I gotta tell you don't have to go
that far. You can go to YouTube and just see
some of the videos.

Speaker 3 (01:44:01):
They were released a few years back with the first
level of transparency came through and they started kind of
releasing that stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:44:06):
The tic TAC video. Have you seen that one?

Speaker 5 (01:44:08):
I don't think so.

Speaker 4 (01:44:09):
Yeah, the tic Tack. The vessel looks like a tictac.

Speaker 5 (01:44:12):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:44:13):
And what I was saying a second ago I tried
to when I stumbled over myself for fifteen straight minutes
before the word came out, was what you radio like,
you hear this Air Force guy flying next to this thing.
He goes like, this thing is doing stuff like physics says, can't.
I mean it's going ten thousand miles an hour, stopping
and then going dead left and then going some then
backing up, flying in and out of the water. They
can't even they're laughing about it. They're laughing because they

(01:44:35):
understand the capabilities of their vehicles, which are the best
in the world, the best man has to offer, and
this thing's doing stuff that's making them giggle as they're
watching it. That's how crazy it is.

Speaker 5 (01:44:46):
It's so impossible, Like it's so impossible, but it's happening.

Speaker 4 (01:44:50):
Wow. It's called the Age of Disclosure. I'm watching it tonight.
I don't want to spend the fourteen dollars yesterday, but
I'm going to know. On Thursday, President Trump was quoted
saying I just left a meeting on that subject. So
pretty serious stuff.

Speaker 5 (01:45:03):
Yeah, yeah, the missing scientists or the alien missing scientists.

Speaker 4 (01:45:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:45:07):
And the thing about the missing scientist thing that's kind
of crazy is that a lot of them are from
the same type of discipline of intellect. You know, whether
it be jet propulsion. I heard a number of them
more nuclear physicists. It didn't see anything about that, but
I mean it could be. They could be with any
of those agencies doing a number of things. It doesn't
have to be necessarily jet propulsion.

Speaker 4 (01:45:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:45:29):
Here's an article that says they were all tied to
the eleven people missing or dead, tied to sensitive military,
nuclear and aerospace resear.

Speaker 4 (01:45:39):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:45:40):
Could it be in conjunction with the stuff that we're
learning now about this. I mean, if you think about
people they think are susceptible to talking. I mean, this
sounds so crazy to even say stuff like this, my god,
they're missing. I mean that's real time stuff that's actually happening.

Speaker 5 (01:45:55):
And it feels like each individual, by themselves, there's nothing
strange about either their death or the fact that they're missing.
Like there's no like, oh, we're shocked, we don't know
what's going on, almost like Savannah Guthrie's mom, right, like
there's all this weirdness, But with these it's like no
foul play. Every person you read, there's nothing, and it's wild.

Speaker 3 (01:46:13):
I heared it doesn't have the dates in which that went.
It just lists the name, so I didn't I didn't
do it in chronological order. But also think about this,
think about the ones. Think about if the ones that
have died were first, and then the missing ones thought
to themselves, I see the writing on the wall. I'm
going to piece out of here.

Speaker 4 (01:46:30):
But you can't.

Speaker 1 (01:46:30):
I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:46:31):
I can't imagine if you were in that level of
government that you could disappear.

Speaker 5 (01:46:37):
They would have everything ways to find.

Speaker 4 (01:46:39):
I mean, could you imagine there's an air tag?

Speaker 3 (01:46:43):
I mean, I don't think you could disappear, like if
I was some if I had some crazy clearance and
had access to information at the highest level of our
propulsion and our in our technological capabilities, and you thought
as my leader or part of the person ran that
I was cracking, or if I was possibly one of
those people, that it's gonna start kind of chatting a

(01:47:03):
little bit because now it's cool to say something, and
then next thing you know, you see your boy get popped.
You gotta be stick around and find out what's going on.
But I don't know that you could leave and disappear though.

Speaker 5 (01:47:14):
I mean, Jason Bourne could.

Speaker 3 (01:47:15):
Okay, stop, But I think if you had the but
the government, if they have such ties on you, Like
let me give an example, like any of the people
that worked on any of the stuff that Einstein was around,
or any of the first H bomb or any of
that stuff that guy was, that guy couldn't just walk
out of the lab and hop in a car and disappear.

Speaker 4 (01:47:34):
Come on, there's no way.

Speaker 3 (01:47:36):
That guy probably had a government tail everywhere they went
just because of the espionage issue.

Speaker 5 (01:47:41):
It would have been easier for him to do it
than today, I think, just because they are tracking obviously.

Speaker 4 (01:47:46):
Yeah, no way, no way possible. You can't leave it.

Speaker 3 (01:47:48):
There's no way they could leave the country. That would
have to be a major fifteen people involved. I'm gonna
live in a trunk for a week kind of scenario
before you could get out. This is insane, it is
you don't watch a documentary, Yes I am.

Speaker 5 (01:48:03):
Well maybe if I'm willing to spend eleven ninety nine,
I'm the person who won't spend ninety nine cents on
an app.

Speaker 7 (01:48:09):
So what up?

Speaker 4 (01:48:11):

Speaker 16 (01:48:43):
The documentary is called The Age of Disclosure. It's absolutely amazing.
And my wife and I were on a cruise in
the Mediterranean a couple of years ago, and we were
looking at our back and see this light just flying
by the ship. Dead stops, went under the water, came
shooting out, kept up with the ship again, got a
little closer, and then dumped right back into the ocean.

(01:49:05):
So we've seen one of these things that we saw
in the disclosure before they even talked about it.

Speaker 1 (01:49:09):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (01:49:10):
Wow, sweet, he's just cut me the eyes.

Speaker 5 (01:49:13):
I guess it's real. He said, it's real. It's got
to be real.

Speaker 4 (01:49:17):
No, what's real is his ability to flex cruise Mediterranean. Yeah,
at his own our balcony means they had a mirandous
suite with a balcony.

Speaker 3 (01:49:26):
Come on, that was just about flex. Get out of here, Jack,
that's all out of here. Seven text us seven seven
zero three. Wind'll forget you about the ten minutes or
so for your five o'clock keyword, it's grand g R
A N D.

Speaker 7 (01:49:40):
You know what to do.

Speaker 3 (01:49:41):
Go to real radio, dout off him and send that
away for your chance of a thousand bucks. Jim Amy's
here with us today. Hi, thank you appreciate that. And
Jackie is as well.

Speaker 2 (01:49:49):
Hi.

Speaker 4 (01:49:50):
And jack has the Jackie sex what's in there? No,

How you doing? I'm good?

Speaker 7 (01:52:00):
How about you doing good? Buddy?

Speaker 4 (01:52:01):
We'll play a little game with us.

Speaker 7 (01:52:03):
Sure, let's do it.

Speaker 2 (01:52:04):
Is he the puzzlemaster or is he the guy who's
currently writing today's game? Can he be both? Let's find out.

Speaker 7 (01:52:11):
It's time for jc S trivia.

Speaker 3 (01:52:14):
All right, James, this is in the easy game.

Speaker 10 (01:52:16):
You know the deal.

Speaker 3 (01:52:16):
I got a question here for you. Four answers. One
of these answers is not true, James.

Speaker 4 (01:52:21):
It is a lie.

Speaker 3 (01:52:21):
I'm trying to fool you, buddy, But if you can
find it, I will send you over to the Jackie
Sack and you can find something nice for yourself.

Speaker 4 (01:52:26):
Are you ready? Here we go, buddy.

Speaker 3 (01:52:29):
On this day in nineteen sixteen, the Chicago Club Cubs
played their very first game at the now iconic Wrigley Field. Okay,
that happened today, Wow, in nineteen sixteen. Here are three
fun facts about wrigley Field and one Ivy covered lie.

Speaker 4 (01:52:46):
All right, here we go.

Speaker 3 (01:52:46):
We're talking about Wrigley Field in Chicago. Which one of
these is a lie? Number one, the scoreboard at wrigley
Field is still manually operated. Also, in over one hundred years,
it's only been hit once by a batted ball. Number two,
It's the only major league stadium with out padded outfield walls.
Number three, wrigley Field was the first major league ballpark

(01:53:08):
that allowed patrons to keep foul balls. Or lastly, wriglely
Field was the first ballpark to add organ music during
the game.

Speaker 4 (01:53:16):
Which of those is a lie?

Speaker 14 (01:53:19):
Two?

Speaker 3 (01:53:20):
No, that's absolutely true. Wrigley Field is the only major
league stadium with out padded walls in the outfield. All right, Amy, one, two, three,
or four.

Speaker 5 (01:53:29):
I have been to those padded walls. I knew the
answer to that one but let's go with number three.

Speaker 3 (01:53:34):
Number three is Howard Howard, how you doing, Buddy good?

Speaker 4 (01:53:38):
How are you doing good?

Speaker 3 (01:53:38):
Buddy talking about Wrigley Field up in Chicago, Which one
of these.

Speaker 1 (01:53:41):
Is not true?

Speaker 3 (01:53:42):
Number one, The scoreboard at Wrigley is still manually operated. Also,
in over one hundred years, it's only been hit once
by a batted ball. Number two, Wrigglely Field was the
first major league ballpark that allowed patrons to keep foul balls.
Or lastly, Wrigley Field was the very first ballpark to
add organ music during the game.

Speaker 4 (01:54:00):
About number one, Number one's answer back.

Speaker 3 (01:54:04):
Hey, I'm gonna ask you a question. How many times
in one hundred years has the scoreboard been hit by
a batted ball?

Speaker 1 (01:54:12):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (01:54:12):
I would just a guess.

Speaker 3 (01:54:15):
It's never been done in the history of Wrigley Field
because it wasn't Wriggly at first. It was called Weggeman's
Field or something like that. In the history of Wrigley Field,
a batted base ball has never hit the scoreboard. As
a matter of fact, the only ball that's ever hit
that scoreboard was a four iron that Sam Snead hit
from home plate. He hit it with a golf ball

(01:54:35):
it's the only time ever.

Speaker 4 (01:54:37):
If Aaron Judge played in the National League, that number
might not be zero. Wrigley Field, Did you know that
Wrigley was the first ballpark that allowed patrons to keep
the first foul balls?

Speaker 5 (01:54:45):
I did not know.

Speaker 3 (01:54:46):
Nobody else did it before they did. And then the
other one was Wriggley Field was the first ballpark to
add Oregon music to the game. Nobody else did that
before that. A couple of other things you may not
know about Wrigley Field before we get to the top
of the hour. Brendon Cravitzen for Sports Today. The scoreboard
at Wrigley is still manual operator.

Speaker 6 (01:55:03):
I just said that.

Speaker 7 (01:55:03):
All right, here we go.

Speaker 3 (01:55:04):
It's customary for fans to do what with home run
balls hit by the opposing team?

Speaker 5 (01:55:08):
Thrown back?

Speaker 3 (01:55:09):
That's right, you gotta throw them back on the field.

Speaker 4 (01:55:11):
Got sick? All right, here we go.

Speaker 3 (01:55:13):
Was Wrigley Field the last National League ballpark to install lights?

Speaker 5 (01:55:18):
And if so, what year were they the last to
install lights?

Speaker 4 (01:55:21):
I believe so in the National League? They were the
news in the National League?

Speaker 3 (01:55:25):
Was Wrigley Field the last baseball field to install lights?

Speaker 4 (01:55:30):
It's weird that he's asking.

Speaker 5 (01:55:31):
That he's saying National League? Is it the supposed to
be American League? No?

Speaker 4 (01:55:36):
No, no, So I'm gonna say yes in twenty sixteen,
that's my guess.

Speaker 5 (01:55:41):
Oh ten years ago.

Speaker 4 (01:55:42):
Yeah, all right, maybe longer, probably longer.

Speaker 5 (01:55:45):
Yeah, I don't know, I don't know. I'd have to
pick something.

Speaker 3 (01:55:49):
Wriggley Field was the first or the last National League
ballpark to install lights in the year nineteen eighty eight.
Whoa nineteen eighty eight.

Speaker 5 (01:56:00):
Was in high school?

Speaker 4 (01:56:00):
Then?

Speaker 3 (01:56:01):
Is wriggly the oldest baseball field in America?

Speaker 11 (01:56:03):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:56:04):
Who is Fenway Park?

Speaker 15 (01:56:07):
Is?

Speaker 3 (01:56:07):
Fenway Park is the oldest and Wrigley Field is the
second oldest. How long did it take to build it?

Speaker 4 (01:56:14):
Five years, seven months, seven weeks they built that.

Speaker 3 (01:56:19):
They built it in seven weeks.

Speaker 5 (01:56:21):
What was it like for the world?

Speaker 4 (01:56:24):
Kind of like that.

Speaker 3 (01:56:24):
They also have rearranged the Grand Sands a couple of times.
It's actually kind of fascinating. And they played a number
of sports there.

Speaker 4 (01:56:30):
They played soccer there, they played football there, they played
other games there as well. It's it's actually a really
interesting story about Wrigley Field one hundred years old. Well,
the as the Wrigley Fields one hundred year olds today.

Speaker 5 (01:56:42):
And those outfield seeds were ten bucks a long time.

Speaker 3 (01:56:45):
And it was designed so that people could sit on
their roofs and watch the game still from there. It
was actually kind of designed to do that.

Speaker 5 (01:56:52):
Now they've built it all up though, so it's yeah,
yeah yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:56:54):
And so my list, I call out my lottery list
is seeing baseball baseball game in every state.

Speaker 1 (01:57:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:57:00):
Yeah. I think dev is actually going up there for
her honeymoon part of it. She's going to have to
regularly see a ball game.

Speaker 3 (01:57:05):
Yeah, because her husband is well I can say a
husband now, but I can't say a husband. A gigantic
Cubs fan, pagor Cubs from Chicago.

Speaker 4 (01:57:14):
I think he is, or is he?

Speaker 11 (01:57:15):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:57:15):
No, No, he's from Lake Mary. Actually that's right, but
I don't know. He's from de Berry. He's from de
Berry because he was like the mayor out there or something.

Speaker 4 (01:57:25):
I don't know, maybe were. I think people around the
nation become Cubs and Braves fans because W g N
and TBS.

Speaker 7 (01:57:32):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (01:57:33):
Yeah, because back in the eighties when cable hit and
you know, that's you could watch every single game. You'd
never have to miss a game. Other than that, you
would have to have you'd have to get lucky that
your team was playing on national television, and that was
and that was a flip of the coin. Yeah, I mean,
if it wasn't the Yankees and the Red Sox or
the Dodgers, you weren't seeing the game, all right, four
seven nine six four one text does seven seven zero

(01:57:54):
three winner Budd Brandon Cravit's up next with sports.

Speaker 2 (01:58:00):
To get your game on, as The Jim Colbert Show
brings you the man who brings the heat, the insight,
and the takes you didn't even know you needed. From
the biggest headlines to the stories flying under the radar,
We've got you covered. So buckle up, because the sports
world never sleeps, and neither does this guy, the most
popular sports broadcaster. On ninety six nine The Game, he

(01:58:21):
bade us to say that Brandon Cravat, hello, old friend.

Speaker 7 (01:58:29):
Oh it's so good to be back. Was he in
this studio?

Speaker 4 (01:58:33):
Good to see you, buddy. What in the world is
going on?

Speaker 8 (01:58:36):
I am just elated at the recent developments in my world.
I'm sore from head to toe. I did pilates today
the first time.

Speaker 4 (01:58:47):
Oh my god.

Speaker 8 (01:58:48):
It was me and a seventy year old woman named Janice. Yeah,
this woman cooked me. Oh yeah, yeah, you're done.

Speaker 3 (01:58:54):
I'm telling you that.

Speaker 4 (01:58:55):
My wife does that.

Speaker 3 (01:58:56):
Plot's thing and one of my favorite things is instagram
videos of chicks bringing their men in. We're talking about like,
these thirty year old dudes are in pretty darn good
shape and they get wrecked in those studios. I mean
they just get dog walked.

Speaker 8 (01:59:10):
Like the only physical feature or attribute about me that
is at all gym level impressive is I'm fairly strong.
I was a big into weightlifting at the end of
my high school days and then carried that into college
a little bit, mostly just living on the relic of
the past as far as that goes.

Speaker 7 (01:59:30):
But the instructor kind of looked at me like, yeah,
you think you're strong. Do you watch this?

Speaker 8 (01:59:36):
Watch work out your the tiny muscles in your obleach right, Yeah,
here's my favorite part.

Speaker 7 (01:59:41):
Never touched in your life.

Speaker 3 (01:59:43):
My wife will be like, yeah, okay, so sit down,
put your left foot here, now, put your elbow right here. Now,
put your left hand on your head right, and I'll go, okay,
no big deal. She goes, now sit up right, and
I'm like, this impossible. It would take a crane to
sit me up from this position, and she's just up
and down. That's crazy, humbling, humbling experience today.

Speaker 7 (02:00:03):
Good to have you back.

Speaker 8 (02:00:04):
I love that your Facebook page handled your exit minor
exit quite well.

Speaker 7 (02:00:09):
I noticed.

Speaker 4 (02:00:10):
Well.

Speaker 3 (02:00:11):
Well, speaking of surprises, man, I you know, the very
first Magic game I watched every single minute of happened yesterday.

Speaker 4 (02:00:18):
Was it yesterday afternoon? Yeah? Yesterday afternoon.

Speaker 7 (02:00:20):
Well, you picked a hell of a time to start, buddy.

Speaker 4 (02:00:22):
Let me tell you know.

Speaker 3 (02:00:23):
I picked up like fragments of games throughout the year,
but I haven't had a chance to sit down. But
our grandson was over, he was sleeping. We were all
piled up in the living room, just kind of hanging out.
I was like, let's see what's on. That's right, Magic
played six thirty first three minutes of the game. I'm like,
this does not look good for any Both these teams
just don't look good. I think they were just trying
to settle in and dude, didn The Magic started stroking,
playing great defense, you know, pretty good shooting. You get

(02:00:45):
the feeling if they're shooting was even a little bit better.
It would have been even grosser for the Pistons, but
they played heads up with that basketball team, and I
gotta tell you, man, they looked pretty darn good last night.

Speaker 8 (02:00:55):
I thought that that was the most encouraging part of
the win for the Magic was that they didn't really
play a perfect game yesterday and still went into Detroit
and they did something that no other team this year.
I mean, we were really into game ones, but no
other team this weekend has done or did, which was
win a game on the road. Every home team other

(02:01:17):
than the Pistons won this weekend by an average margin
of like seventeen points per game. And the Magic went
into their house and outplayed them throughout the game and
really beat them at their own game. And so it's
impressive because the Magic still have meat left on the bone.
They didn't shoot the ball well from three, nobody really

(02:01:38):
went crazy in the game. The bench played okay. Desmond
Bain was sick going into the game. He still played
through it, but he was less than one hundred percent.
He and Jalen Suggs were both in foul trouble late
in the game. So there's a lot that could still
go better for the Magic, but they beat the Pistons
at their own game. They were the better defensive team,
They were the more physical team, They were the better

(02:01:58):
rebounding team, and they have.

Speaker 4 (02:02:00):
To takeaways too. A lot of turnovers for those guys
they forced. That is one of the things that the
Pistons will give you when going into the series. Going
into yesterday, in my pregame show, I said, there's two
ways that you can beat this team. If you're the
better three point shooting team, you can beat them because
they're not good at that, and they will turn the
ball over and you have to take advantage of that.
The Magic did that in spades, So that was one

(02:02:21):
of the things that they had to.

Speaker 7 (02:02:22):
Do well and they did.

Speaker 8 (02:02:24):
But there were areas like nobody out rebounds the Pistons.
Jalen Duran, their center, is the biggest, strongest center in
the NBA. He was pushed around by Wendell Carter Junior.
I thought the unsung hero of the game was Wendell
Carter Junior. The fact that they just took Duran out
of the game completely. Kate Cunningham was awesome, but it
took him a minute to get going, and nobody else

(02:02:46):
on that team really did much of anything. That is
where playoff experience really shines through. And now it's been
a couple of years and the Magic have had their hurdles,
but they've lost two playoff series. This scroup has lost
two playoff series in the last two years. This now
they get to roll all of that experience into this matchup.
This is only year two of the Pistons in the postseason,

(02:03:08):
so the Magic have that experience edge. I'm I'm pretty hopeful.
I do think now this is not this is gonna
come across like reaction. I think the Magic are winning
this series.

Speaker 3 (02:03:22):
Oh really, Well, that's crazy, you know, I don't because
I haven't seen the Pistons play.

Speaker 4 (02:03:27):
I've seen the Magic play.

Speaker 3 (02:03:29):
But the thing is is just the Magic are gonna
have to have that intensity the entire series to even
come close. They're gonna have to be stripping every ball.
They're gonna have to contend for every rebound. They're gonna
have to shoot threes better, I believe. But you know,
they penetrated. They got the paint a lot last night.

Speaker 8 (02:03:43):
I mean they points last night, fifty four for the Magic,
just thirty four for the Pistols.

Speaker 4 (02:03:47):
I'm telling you.

Speaker 3 (02:03:48):
They worked the ball inside and it looked great. They
ran plays. It wasn't just people shooting from the perimeter.
All night long, they were working the ball into the paint,
getting their scores on the ball.

Speaker 4 (02:03:59):
It was just fun to watch.

Speaker 8 (02:04:00):
Yeah, Pallo played like a superstar. It's amazing what this
guy has done in the playoffs. In the first three
years of him being in the postseason. His season average
is lower than his playoff average. That's the sign of
a great player. And he's had a really rough season.
And I've been pretty hard on Pallo because you're not
going to be You can't do anything in the NBA
if your star isn't a star. And at times this

(02:04:21):
year it looks like he's been checked out or he
just hasn't really been advancing his game and other defenses
are figuring him out. But he turned it back and
it was awesome to see. Now all the pressure is
on the Pistons because if the Magic go the next game,
Game two is on Wednesday.

Speaker 7 (02:04:37):
If the Magic win that one, historically.

Speaker 8 (02:04:40):
Speaking, it's a series over the fact that you've taken
two games and you haven't even played a home game yet. Yeah,
and the Magic are lights out on their home floor.
I'm I'm jacked up about where this team is right now,
and this is coming from someone and I am not alone.
Any other Magic fan listening to this right now can
jive with this statement. Going into Friday against the Hornets,

(02:05:02):
if you lose that game, you don't even make the playoffs.

Speaker 7 (02:05:04):
They had to win it, and the Hornets were the
hottest team in the end.

Speaker 3 (02:05:08):
I'd like to say they came off just coming off
a super hot win.

Speaker 4 (02:05:10):
Man.

Speaker 8 (02:05:11):
So I'm going in thinking I'm just gonna need to
say by to some people in the arena. I'm not
gonna see them until next season. I did not expect
the Magic to win that game, but I but I've
seen enough in the last two games.

Speaker 7 (02:05:25):
This is the team.

Speaker 8 (02:05:26):
It is amazing that it has taken eighty plus games
for us to get here. This is the team that
we were jacked up about coming into the season. They
finally showed them up.

Speaker 3 (02:05:35):
So hopefully it'll continue on and they can focus and
continue that kind of intensity and really keep that going.
Now they have a template of what they can do
to at least put a dent in Detroit. I'm sure
Detroit's gonna switch it up a little bit and maybe
give them some different looks, but I think the Magic
can kind of move around with that, they prove they
can play with them. So it's just a matter of
drawing up the right place for them and getting him
in the right positions and getting the ball in the

(02:05:55):
right player's hands.

Speaker 7 (02:05:56):
Absolutely.

Speaker 8 (02:05:57):
Yeah, I'm sure that the way that this typically goes,
the Pistons are gonna win on Wednesday. They probably win
by a lot, but who knows. But again, a lot
of people have said that going into Game one, and
that didn't happen. All right, let's talk about the draft.
I was coming up in three days, I think Thursday night.

Speaker 7 (02:06:13):
Thursday night.

Speaker 3 (02:06:13):
Yeah, not a big deal in the sports world at all.

Speaker 7 (02:06:19):
I mean, the draft is amazing.

Speaker 8 (02:06:20):
I will say this year, it does feel like the
anticipation is diminished. And there's a couple of reasons why.
Fernando Mendoza has already etched in Stone. I think they've
already printed his jersey in Las Vegas. He is going
to be the number one overall.

Speaker 4 (02:06:35):
Picky feeling, Jack, I love it, love it, love it,
love it. This could be the next ten years. Amy,
are you a Bears girls in Les?

Speaker 5 (02:06:45):
Since I went to school in Chicago, but I grew
up in Michigan, so I'm kind of a Lion's.

Speaker 7 (02:06:49):
Oh wow, there are the Lions are super fun.

Speaker 1 (02:06:51):
I love that.

Speaker 4 (02:06:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (02:06:56):
The uh so that we already kind of know who
the number one pick is going to be. There's no
debate there that That's usually step one in generating draft interest.
Is a debate at number one or will the top
team make a trade?

Speaker 7 (02:07:09):
None of that is in play.

Speaker 8 (02:07:11):
The Raiders are going to draft Mendoza, and then the
next layer of is this draft interesting? Is okay, well,
what's the crop at quarterback? Even if number one has
already presumed? Who else is there? Because you might not
see another quarterback taken in round one? Well really might not.

Speaker 7 (02:07:27):
Ty Simpson would be the other one.

Speaker 8 (02:07:29):
He's out of Alabama, but he had a pretty uneven
year and he's going to be beauty in the eye.

Speaker 7 (02:07:35):
Of the beholder.

Speaker 8 (02:07:36):
He could go as early as fourteen fifteen. The Jets
might take him, or he could go in the second round.

Speaker 3 (02:07:43):
Alabama quarterbacks.

Speaker 7 (02:07:44):
Alabama quarterbacks not the best.

Speaker 4 (02:07:46):
History, man, I'm gonna tell you.

Speaker 7 (02:07:47):
I mean, just when you thought Tula was going to
break the mold.

Speaker 8 (02:07:50):
To a.

Speaker 3 (02:07:52):
Bunch of Jalen Hurts, I mean right, I mean.

Speaker 8 (02:07:54):
Jalen Hurts and even Jalen Hurts I think is sort
of like, I'm not even sure he truly qualifies because
he left Alabama and went to Oklahoma. Yeah, it has
been a breeding ground for good quarterback play. But so
and then okay, So then the next layer is okay, Well,
now do we have exciting skill position players. Jeremiah Love
is one of them. He's the running back out of

(02:08:15):
Notre Dame. That guy is gonna go top ten. He
is sensational. He's the next Saquon Barkley coming into the league.
But outside of that, really it's a good, solid draft. Said,
the number one wide receiver this year is going to
be Carnel Tait out of Ohio State. He's not a
guy that comes in where you think he's breaking the mold.

(02:08:36):
He's just a solid number two wide receiver. It's a
deep defensive line, offensive line draft.

Speaker 4 (02:08:44):
This is a lot of that's needed in the NFL. Man,
a lot of teams are just minus that. Right, I'm
not saying this draft isn't good or important.

Speaker 8 (02:08:52):
I'm strictly talking about not all hype is created equal.

Speaker 7 (02:08:58):
This is not going to be the most hype draft
on Thursday.

Speaker 4 (02:09:02):
Still fun though, right, Oh my god.

Speaker 7 (02:09:03):
I mean it's amazing.

Speaker 4 (02:09:04):
I are you still doing your.

Speaker 3 (02:09:06):
Draft party this year? Come on, I'm sorry. I apologize.

Speaker 4 (02:09:12):
I'm so sorry.

Speaker 7 (02:09:13):
It did not next topic, it did not come together.
That's I'll just leave it at that.

Speaker 4 (02:09:17):
Okay, are you do you have a player you're watching
to see where they go? Have you do you do
you do a thing to You'll do.

Speaker 8 (02:09:23):
Mock drafts anymore. But I'm now betting on the draft
has become really popular. I haven't placed any wagers yet,
but that is something that's available for you on the
hard rock.

Speaker 7 (02:09:34):
That app.

Speaker 8 (02:09:36):
One of the players I'm really intrigued by is Caleb
Downs and he is because he plays the safety position.
The safety position is not really highly sought after. Uh
it's just one of those kind of like running back
teams feel like they can wait. I think he's the
most talented player in the draft. He started at Alabama.
He was a captain as a freshman for Nick Saban. Wow,

(02:09:56):
that's all you need to know about. Then he goes
to Ohio State and he helps anchor a defense the
one national championship.

Speaker 7 (02:10:02):
I think he's going to go top ten.

Speaker 8 (02:10:04):
Where is going to be fascinating because I think he
can change a defense day one.

Speaker 7 (02:10:08):
But the Chiefs pick at nine.

Speaker 8 (02:10:11):
They have not had a top ten pick in nine years,
so what they do is going to be perhaps more
important than anybody else that's picking in round one, because
this is their one opportunity to kind of retool things.
They really need to nail this pick. Their team is old,
slow and expensive, and if they don't get this pick right, that's.

Speaker 4 (02:10:34):
Not a good compare. I'm all those things right.

Speaker 8 (02:10:39):
They fell off a cliff and they're still paying. Travis
Kelcey is kind of like, we appreciate your contract. Think
they've got to get faster, and they've got to get younger,
and they really need to nail this.

Speaker 4 (02:10:50):
He's coming back.

Speaker 3 (02:10:51):
Yeah, he's coming back for We made the announcement a
month ago.

Speaker 4 (02:10:54):
It is definitely Kevin be They postponed the wedding, I think,
didn't they Then they changed the date or something. Amy,
Are you on that?

Speaker 5 (02:11:00):
Sorry? I know more about Taylor Swift than I do football.
The one that knows this y Yeah right, why because
I'm a girl.

Speaker 7 (02:11:10):
No, you like Taylor Swift?

Speaker 6 (02:11:13):
No?

Speaker 5 (02:11:13):
I was kidding. Sorry, you missed my sarcasm.

Speaker 7 (02:11:16):
I did.

Speaker 8 (02:11:16):
My wife is a huge swifties. So I think she
gets the newsletter and I'll check in where I go.
Do you Where are the Lions picking? The Lions are
at seventeen, all right.

Speaker 4 (02:11:28):
Wearing this What are they looking for? What are the
Lions looking for?

Speaker 7 (02:11:31):
Uh, they kind of have every whole field.

Speaker 8 (02:11:34):
I would think that they'd want to go defense, but
utility players, they're They're in very much like best player
available range because they're their rosters is dacked.

Speaker 7 (02:11:44):
One of the things to look for inside of the state.

Speaker 8 (02:11:46):
So the Jags traded their future first round pick, which
is this year's pick, last year when they got Travis Hunter,
so they don't have a first rounder.

Speaker 7 (02:11:54):
The Dolphins have two they have.

Speaker 8 (02:11:57):
They traded Jalen Waddle to the Broncos, so they got
their first round pick. They have pick eleven and they
are also picking at thirty. And this is another team
that has to nail the draft. They are going through
a rebuild right now. Yeah, they got a new coach,
they've got a new general manager. They're trying to establish
some toughness in Miami, which they haven't had since I

(02:12:19):
was in high school.

Speaker 3 (02:12:19):
I heard they're looking at Stephen Hawking.

Speaker 7 (02:12:22):
That would be great. You know anything that would help.
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (02:12:26):
Miami is so bad. It's like a joke book of
an NFL franchise, that's.

Speaker 8 (02:12:29):
What they But and this is the perfect kind of
draft for a team like that because you can just
just boring meat and potatoes.

Speaker 7 (02:12:38):
Don't need to do it. There's no sizzle all right
in this draft for you?

Speaker 3 (02:12:41):
All right on the record, Mendoza bust or you think
he's gonna go I.

Speaker 7 (02:12:45):
Think he's gonna be fine.

Speaker 8 (02:12:46):
Okay, Yeah, I will always bet on smart, smart hard workers.

Speaker 7 (02:12:51):
Yes, Hall of Fame for Fernando Mendes.

Speaker 4 (02:12:54):
Wait a minimum of five super Bowl ring Yeah? Yeah, right,
just a minimum for sure.

Speaker 7 (02:12:58):

Speaker 5 (02:14:07):
Us candy, so we're gonna cheer and clap for sure.

Speaker 6 (02:14:10):
Absolutely that as part of the strategy.

Speaker 15 (02:14:12):
It was pretty good, right See for me, ye words
is one of those things that is such an underappreciated candy.

Speaker 6 (02:14:19):
And then you have someone you're like, man, where has
this been all my life?

Speaker 4 (02:14:22):
But the thing for you?

Speaker 3 (02:14:24):
Let me let me help you out a little bit.

Speaker 7 (02:14:25):
Though.

Speaker 3 (02:14:26):
Here's the thing, all right, you eat a Worthers at
thirty five, good looking lawyer, good suit, the whole nine yards.

Speaker 4 (02:14:33):
It's cool.

Speaker 3 (02:14:34):
I eat a Worthers. It's oh, Granddad's gonna give me
a card, but four dollars in it. Like, I don't
get the same treatment with worthers as you get with words.
Even Bradshaw can eat it words. Amy can eat a
Worthers perfectly fine. I get a worthers laughing stock.

Speaker 15 (02:14:48):
It's the angry attitude that you're approaching your weathers that's
the problem. You gotta be a little bit more smiling
when you're saying, here, would you like a worthers?

Speaker 3 (02:14:57):
Raise a personal injury attorning here in central Florida, serving
the entire area. TK Law is the firm, one firm
for life. Dot com is the website, and I mean
disciplines from divorce to estate manners to trip and falls,
car wrecks. They do it all.

Speaker 4 (02:15:12):
And they have two offices right there in Longwood, and
of course a new office right there and downtown to
land That's right. So you always come in and kind
of bring us something to talk about. What do you
have first today, buddy.

Speaker 15 (02:15:21):
Man, If I was a better friend, I would have
brought in tequila so we could talk a little bit
about this case that happened on a cruise ship where
a forty five year old neo natal nurse was having
fourteen shots of tequila on the cruise ship and fell
down the stairs in an area that was employee only.

(02:15:43):
Filed a lawsuit against the cruise line and one okay, okay,
hold on now, yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:15:49):
Let's talk about it.

Speaker 3 (02:15:51):
So did she have the drink package?

Speaker 6 (02:15:53):
So I believe she had the.

Speaker 15 (02:15:55):
All you can drink package from Carnival. And the testimony
at the trick was that they pushed the drinks on you, okay,
and that they have a duty of care and responsibility
to make sure that if you were being overserved, if
you are visibly intoxicated, that somebody either escort you to

(02:16:16):
your room or make sure you get there safely.

Speaker 4 (02:16:17):
All right?

Speaker 3 (02:16:18):
Can I ask another question?

Speaker 4 (02:16:19):
Please?

Speaker 3 (02:16:19):
Is this person ten years old?

Speaker 6 (02:16:21):
They are not.

Speaker 3 (02:16:22):
They are a full grown adult.

Speaker 4 (02:16:23):
Forty four year old neonatal nurse, a forty four year
old educated woman yep, fell down an employee staircase after
drinking fourteen shuts of tequila while having the drink package.

Speaker 6 (02:16:35):
She got separated from her friends.

Speaker 5 (02:16:37):
She just kind of wandered off and they pushed the
drinks on her.

Speaker 6 (02:16:42):
Well, according to the testimony, they were very liberal with
their pouring.

Speaker 4 (02:16:46):
So ray liberal with pouring is different than well drink
packages now and for the past cup, I think maybe
past couple of years, they kind of limited. It says unlimited,
but it's really a maximum of fifteen and I guess
this would apply.

Speaker 15 (02:16:58):
But this was a couple of years ago, right, So
this happened in twenty twenty four, Okay, And what makes
this so from a legal standpoint, which makes us really interesting.
And obviously we could talk about personal accountability in those
types of things, because I think that that is a
very fair conversation to have here. But under Florida law,
we have what's called dram shop laws. And if you

(02:17:18):
are familiar, if you've ever been a bartender, conceptually, the
idea is this establishments serving alcohol are not responsible for
what you do if you consume alcohol unless you're a
minor child or you're a known habitual drunk.

Speaker 6 (02:17:30):
Right, that's Florida law.

Speaker 15 (02:17:33):
And normally when we see these cases coming out of
Florida on cruise ships, we apply Florida law.

Speaker 6 (02:17:40):
If there's a Florida law on point.

Speaker 3 (02:17:42):
But it's international law well, or is it based on
where the ship.

Speaker 6 (02:17:46):
Is it's where the ship is is registered.

Speaker 15 (02:17:50):
And so that's why we see all these cases come
out of the Southern District of Florida is because that's
where they're registered. So what's interesting is we have a
dramshop law in Florida and I haven't been I've requested it,
I haven't gotten it back yet. My guess is what
happened At some point in this case there was a dispute,
oh whether or not Florida law applies or federal law applies.

(02:18:10):
And under federal law there is no such dram shop
type law. And so they've applied this kind of reasonable standard,
this duty to protect somebody who may be harmed on
a cruise ship. And there's a case out of nineteen
ninety nine and the case out of two thousand that
specifically deals with these issues, and they say Florid law

(02:18:30):
should apply. So I'm guessing that somewhere along the lines,
this is why it's so important that you get a
good lawyer and a good judge. Frankly, some are along
the lines. They made this argument. This judge made a
ruling that Florida law was not going to apply. And
now three hundred thousand dollars. Judgment is applying to Carnival
Cruises for this negligence case.

Speaker 3 (02:18:52):
So can they appeal this?

Speaker 6 (02:18:53):
Oh, they're absolutely going to appeal it.

Speaker 5 (02:18:55):
Yeah, absolutely, So there's no jury in this. It's not
like let's go after the big corporate attitude.

Speaker 15 (02:19:01):
So this survived summary judgment and went to a jury,
so a trial, so a juror of their peers heard
the case and determined that Carnival was liable for three
nWo thousand dollars.

Speaker 3 (02:19:13):
This is a seven person jury, nine person, ten person,
eleven person. What kind of jury is this person?

Speaker 4 (02:19:19):
Nine? Is it always a not?

Speaker 6 (02:19:21):
Always depends on capital cases.

Speaker 4 (02:19:23):
Yeah, that's what I was wondering. A majority of women
on the jury, and you know, maybe it was a
majority of women on the jury.

Speaker 5 (02:19:31):
It was, and they live in Miami.

Speaker 6 (02:19:33):
There are residents of Miami.

Speaker 4 (02:19:35):
Yeah, and so that could factor into women how they
like feeling maybe whether they are intoxicated or in situations
like that needed you know, feeling.

Speaker 3 (02:19:48):
Vulnerable being predated on.

Speaker 4 (02:19:50):
Yeah, well and we kind of know, I don't know.

Speaker 15 (02:19:53):
You guys are talking about cruise ships earlier today, which
just kind of got me thinking about some of the stuff.
You kind of know, when you're on a cruise ship,
you have to be a little bit more careful, right,
I mean, the ship isn't stationary, it's moving right, there's waves, right,
and so you have to be extra careful.

Speaker 1 (02:20:08):
Right.

Speaker 4 (02:20:08):
The only people walking straight were to the drugs people
counteracted the sea with alcohol.

Speaker 15 (02:20:16):
I spent my twenty first birthday on a cruise ship,
so I have a very specific memory of that. But
you know, so you know, you have to be a
little bit more safe. And so they actually found that
she was forty percent at fault, but that Carnival Cruises
was sixty percent at fault for these damages, which to

(02:20:36):
me is just so surprising, you know, because.

Speaker 3 (02:20:40):
That was that was My next question is, like, you know,
you're using language leads me to believe that you don't
necessarily buy this decision. You think maybe it was not
a good decision.

Speaker 7 (02:20:48):
Well, you know, the.

Speaker 6 (02:20:49):
Jury has to make the decision based on the evidence
they hear.

Speaker 15 (02:20:51):
But I think there has to be some level of
accountability more than well, she was a little bit responsible
for what happened.

Speaker 6 (02:20:58):
Here, right, and that what we got.

Speaker 4 (02:21:00):
You know, you think it was argued poorly, I don't know. Yeah,
you know they're well not effective. So let me ask
that would be the case. When you're a logical person,
you think about the case. Okay, a woman goes on
a cruise ship, she buys the all you can drink
package right off rip.

Speaker 3 (02:21:17):
She's therefore going right off rip. You're telling everybody you're
there to get loose right now. I just looked it up.
You can't buy or get served more than fifteen drinks,
like Jack said, even with an unlimited package. They're not
supposed to do that. Now she's saying that on top
of that, that they kind of forced the drinks on her.
So that means that she would have had to have
been held down and had this poured down. Or what

(02:21:40):
she's saying is is they poured her the alcohol almost
like daring her to take.

Speaker 4 (02:21:45):
The shot again?

Speaker 7 (02:21:45):
Is that?

Speaker 2 (02:21:46):
Is that?

Speaker 5 (02:21:46):
What?

Speaker 3 (02:21:46):
And it wasn't the same bartender over and over?

Speaker 15 (02:21:48):
Well, so they talk about the culture at the bar
or the bars on the ships where these bartenders apparently
not getting paid very well and the majority of the
money they make is off their tips, and so they're
in incentivized to keep the liquid flowing too. And so
they're saying, you know, the bartender's incentivized and want to tips.
The cruise line itself wants you to spend money, so

(02:22:09):
they're incentivized. They trying to get you to drink so
that way, you know, go gamble and do all the
things that you were going to do on the ship
and spend money. And that you know, she was almost,
in this way an innocent bystander that was being taken
advantage of during the cruise chep right, And I just.

Speaker 6 (02:22:23):
Don't buy it.

Speaker 3 (02:22:24):
Yeah, I don't either. And here the other aspect I
find very interesting is is you're saying that they're forcing
drinks on her, but she bought the drink package, so theoretically,
wot't the bartenders want to serve her less and save
the and save the ship money because the more alcohol
they're giving her, she's actually taking more advantage I would
think the bar. Now, I understand the tip aspect of
it is, but a lot of people who have drink

(02:22:45):
packages really don't tip like that. Like you don't tip
the same as if you're buying those drinks all the
carts because you have well for me, because we tip
all at once with the one package, like we tip
the room with the package because we don't go around
every time we buy a drink and it's eleven dollars
were thrown on two Bucksally for me, it doesn't work
like that because when we buy the drink package, we
do it all at one time. Because in one hand,

(02:23:07):
she's saying, you know that they want all the tips.
On the second hand, the cruise ship is like, well,
I can't imagine the cruise ship incentivizes giving up fifteen
shots of liquoric data one patron. That's costing them more money.
I would think they would want them to serve as
few as possible.

Speaker 4 (02:23:21):
I did the more drinks. I think they do better
in tips.

Speaker 1 (02:23:24):
So on.

Speaker 4 (02:23:26):
The cruise line I was on, they would with a
drink package, you would still they would like, bring it up.
You have a receipt, you signed for it, but it
doesn't show up on your bill. But they added eighteen
percent to every purchase.

Speaker 3 (02:23:39):
Oh my god, they don't do that.

Speaker 4 (02:23:41):
Oh my gosh, they do not do that. They don't
even add They asked my room number, and that's it.
That was factored into the drink package. But then they
give you a pen. So if you want to put
an additional tip on that, and that also goes too
the server. So therefore, the more times they're handing you
a receipt with a pen with that empty timp line,

(02:24:02):
the better chances of them making more in tips. I
guess maybe it's just a cruise line a cruise line
scenario there.

Speaker 5 (02:24:07):
I think it's different for each cruise line and what they're.

Speaker 3 (02:24:10):
Yeah, because on my cruise line there was I mean,
I'm telling you, I got asked twice in seven days
for my card thing. Everything else is just what your
room number because my card's a certain color, which means
a certain thing. And once they see that color, they
know that I have that certain package. They don't even
bother asking. They just give me the drink. No receipts,
no ringing anything up.

Speaker 6 (02:24:29):
Interesting.

Speaker 4 (02:24:30):
Yeah, for tracking purposes, everything I had to do, you
needed your card and it would be swiping.

Speaker 8 (02:24:36):
Wow.

Speaker 15 (02:24:36):
Experience too as far as cruise ships goes, I feel
like they swept everything, which I thought it was just
for tracking and yeah, making sure they can keep track
of their inventory and everything.

Speaker 5 (02:24:44):
So the other thing that's odd to me is the
fact that she fell in an area where she wasn't
even supposed to be right. This is an employee area.

Speaker 4 (02:24:52):
And doesn't know how she got there.

Speaker 15 (02:24:54):
Yeah, and that to me seems to be one of
the bigger facts of the case as well, is she
was in a place where she wasn't supposed to to
be and so you know, and again I don't know
if the stairwells are different, you know in those areas
where you know, maybe it's got less carpet.

Speaker 3 (02:25:08):
And they're all very well marked. I mean, these are very,
very very well marked.

Speaker 4 (02:25:13):
It says crew only on the door. And believe me,
I was I wanted to go inside because I want
to see what's back. I'd be curious if you know,
if it's I can imagine with a few drinks in me, I.

Speaker 3 (02:25:24):
Mean, let's go look. Getting back on the boat from
one of our stops, I made a wrong turn and
they snap corrected my ass like sir, no, it's this way,
thank you, like instantly, And I wasn't even in that
path yet, Doude. That took one step toward that place
and they shut me downker. Yeah, and Jack's right. Everywhere
that the crew was supposed to be clearly marked on

(02:25:46):
the doors crew only.

Speaker 15 (02:25:49):
It's just surprised me that Jerry came back with this verdict.
I just I expected to be appealed, and I would
not be surprised if it doesn't get overturned on appeal.

Speaker 1 (02:25:57):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (02:25:58):
Oh sorry, what did you mean about the sixty Because
to me, of course, I think grain chance, probability, that's
where my brain goes. But when you said sixty forty,
is that something the jury does? Is that something?

Speaker 7 (02:26:08):
So when is this new?

Speaker 4 (02:26:09):
By the way, that sixty forty to the percentage of
liability things relative? Yeah?

Speaker 15 (02:26:13):
Yeah, So what happens in the jury form when you
get it? It says, you know, do you find that
they're liable? And if say you say, yes, they're liable,
then what are the damages? And so let's say it's
a million dollars in damages and then you know portion
it out, So what percentage responsibility was the plaintiff, you know,
the person who got hurt, and say forty percent? Right,
So then you so forty percent comes off the top

(02:26:35):
of one million dollars, that's six hundred thousand dollars left.

Speaker 6 (02:26:38):
Does that make sense?

Speaker 5 (02:26:38):
Yes, So it's connect and it's connected to the money, and.

Speaker 6 (02:26:41):
It's connected to the money.

Speaker 4 (02:26:41):
Yeah, yeah, it's the percentage of liability the jury believes
that you are in any situation like that.

Speaker 15 (02:26:47):
I mean, yeah, yeah, correct, yeah, and so so I
could do that math in my head. So that's why
I use those numbers. But I definitely get the idea.

Speaker 4 (02:26:55):
Yeah, man, this is crazy what a precedent to set.

Speaker 15 (02:26:59):
I mean, it's a big shift from the cases we
saw in the early two thousands, for sure.

Speaker 3 (02:27:03):
Like what a precedent said. When I heard this case,
at first, I was like, well, I can see this
on land, because you have the ability to get into
a car and kill somebody, including yourself. But on a
cruise ship, the worst thing you do is stumble into
a doorway on your way back, or I guess maybe
stumble into an area and fall down a staircase.

Speaker 4 (02:27:18):
I guess that's possible as well. But I mean, well,
this is self harmed too.

Speaker 15 (02:27:22):
You know, in the car scenario, you're really worried about
hurting somebody else, Like you get into a car and
you riting somebody else.

Speaker 6 (02:27:27):
I mean, sure, we don't want.

Speaker 15 (02:27:28):
Your hurting yourself either, But on a cruise ship, it's
not like you're getting behind the wheel this cruise ship
and steering it into an iceberg.

Speaker 1 (02:27:35):
Right.

Speaker 3 (02:27:35):
Yeah, But theoretically, had she fallen out of, like off
her balcony and really become hurt. I mean, so that
would have been a different scenario together now they would
have been also maybe you know, liable for at least
part of her injuries and that and I mean, how
bad were her injuries in the staircase fall.

Speaker 15 (02:27:51):
She had a cervical neck injury. So okay, it was
a fairly significant neck injury. But you know, to your point,
what where's the safe place on a cruise whe where somebody's.

Speaker 3 (02:28:00):
Like, where does it end?

Speaker 4 (02:28:00):
I mean, let me tell you something that work dangerous
than the stairway. I mean, you know all these people,
I mean, everybody in the room's cruise Amy, We was
just talking about.

Speaker 3 (02:28:08):
It a couple of breaks ago. When you go to
these atrium areas in the middle of these ships, I
mean you can you could fall forty five feet just
off of like an area that looks down onto the
main drag there, the main area where everybody gathers, usually
where the piano bar is and the markedini bar is
in the main gathering area, usually on the fourth or
fifth floor. Well, that thing's open up until like the

(02:28:29):
six or seventh floor so it'd be no problem for
you to tumble over that thing in fall.

Speaker 15 (02:28:34):
My guess is that they probably have like a drunk
tank on the cruise ships now, where they just stash
you down there and hang out to you.

Speaker 3 (02:28:41):
And by the way, do we also know is there
any video of her behavior? Another thing on cruise ships
is there are video cameras everywhere everywhere, so there's no
video evidence of her behavior. Was she asking for drinks?
Was she was her behavior showing that she was drunk.
A lot of people get hand handled their liquor quite well.

Speaker 15 (02:28:59):
I think I saw one of the articles I was
reading that there was some video of her being served.

Speaker 6 (02:29:06):
Whether or not she was, I don't know. Causing a
rocket I don't know about.

Speaker 4 (02:29:11):
And the other thing too, dude. I mean, it's not
like this is the first person a bartender on a
cruise ship has ever served. They're serving a different group
of the thousands of people every eight days, I mean
four days, it could be two days, I guess, three days,
it could be.

Speaker 5 (02:29:24):
And people act differently and hold their liquor differently, so
it's difficult to tell. Maybe they didn't realize that she
was well, she already had twelve shots.

Speaker 15 (02:29:32):
Well, this is like a day drinking thing too. This
started like two o'clock in the afternoon, all the way
it's supposed to cruise.

Speaker 6 (02:29:38):
O'clock at night.

Speaker 15 (02:29:39):
So you know, to your point, like, there's not probably
one bartender who's serving that one person over an eight
hour period.

Speaker 3 (02:29:46):
Yeah, it's rare to say in one place. I mean
one of the things is bar hopping.

Speaker 4 (02:29:50):
On those cruises. You go up to the back deck
to watch the sailway, then you know the front deck
because the steel drum is there.

Speaker 3 (02:29:55):
Then you go downstairs because the rock band's playing.

Speaker 6 (02:29:57):
You would be a still drum guy.

Speaker 3 (02:30:00):
You rarely get a couple of drinks from the same place.
You're just kind of buzzing around, you know.

Speaker 4 (02:30:04):
Good case man, very interesting.

Speaker 6 (02:30:06):
Yeah, you see what happens on the piel.

Speaker 3 (02:30:07):
Yeah for sure, Right four oh seven nine one. You
can always text us at seven seven zero three ones,

Speaker 3 (02:32:44):
I will tell you exactly. This is how like when
you talk about attorneys, everybody thinks it's like, oh, I
have to have attorney for the most crazy decisions of
my life. I can't make them without an attorney. This
is the kind of decision I help or Ray helps
me make. When we moved into the house that we
have now, the guy that that we bought it from
was not a good dude. Matter of fact, he was
a registered sex offender, oh lord, and he was a

(02:33:07):
sideways character, right, And when we bought the house, in
his contract, he did not list a couple of things
that were in the home that he wanted to take
after the cell had already gone through. One of them
was a really old bank safe that's still in my
basement to this day that I could put you in twice.
Whoa right, and it's old and it really doesn't have

(02:33:28):
a ton of value. We do not know the combination.
We don't know anything about it. But for some reason,
he also left a very expensive light. I won't get
into it, but it was just an expensive chandelier from
a specific maker, and he didn't mention that at all,
but he wanted this safe. He wouldn't let it go right,
and he wouldn't get the blank out of my house,
and he wouldn't close this deal over this stupid safe.

(02:33:50):
This is exactly what it took. I said, Abe, I'm
done with you, Ray. This guy will not get out
of the house. Can you help me out? Sure, Bub,
what's the deal? I send him the beats. That next
day writes a letter, and that afternoon we signed our deal.
That's what Trinley does. That's just one of the things
that Trinley does. When you have situations like that but
you simply don't have an answer, and you think attorneys

(02:34:12):
attorneys are beyond the pale. They're not, because very Ray
is very accessible and any of those questions can be
answered and handled professionally. That way, you don't get yourself
in trouble, it doesn't cost a ton of money, and
you feel better about it, and even better, you've started
a relationship with a guy that can help you down
the road with a bunch of family issues.

Speaker 4 (02:34:27):
As they arrive. That's right. We just want problem solved, absolutely, Jack.
Who do we have to think today? Ray Trenley for
one coming in Brandon Kravitz with Sports and of course
