Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Scott Vorgies, this is gonna be tough. I was thinking
today that in my life, I've survived and lived through
seventeen thousand, five hundred some days in my life. And
let's be honest, if you've listened to this radio show
for any amount of time over these years, you know
I've wasted so many of these days. I've wasted my time,

(00:22):
I've wasted your time. Sometimes it's been a delight, Sometimes
it's been just a miserable experience for all involved. But
my gosh, you think about the days that we have.
You have no idea in many instances how many days
those are going to be. Sometimes at the end you're
giving a heads up you've got a matter of days, weeks,

(00:45):
maybe months. Sometimes you don't know until it's suddenly an
abrupt realization like oh this is it. And they talk
about your life flashing before your eyes. Who knows what
that looks like? My gosh, how many of us our
lives flashed before our eyes as like, oh, yeah, there

(01:06):
was that one weekend where I went home from lackluster
week at work on Friday and I put my pajamas
on when I got home Friday evening, and I took
them off when I went back to work on Monday
to begin another lackluster week of not being connected to
my job, my family, my community, my life. This opportunity

(01:30):
afforded it. We mean, sometimes that happens. Sometimes that has
to happen. People talk about like, Wow, you got to
live every single day to its fullest. Do you have
any idea how exhausting that must be? So I've lived
seventeen thy five hundred some days. Jack Hoffin lived what

(01:52):
six thousand some days in his life, almost quite seven
thousand or so days in his life, and had a
lifetime that was encapsulated in about a minute. On one

(02:13):
day back in twenty and thirteen, Matt Davison and Greg
Sharp on the call with the Husker Sports Network, and
he's wearing the number twenty two. Guys.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
It is Jack Hoffman of Team Jack coming out of
the field right now, and there's four down in short.
Jack Hofman, who has been adopted really by this football team,
a young man who has battled brain cancer, who is
on the field right now for the Huskers. One more
snap for Taylor Martinez too, who will hand it off

(02:47):
to Jack. So Taylor gets a shotguts set gives it
to Jack. There he goes, he's got blockers out in front.
Veris run on the midfield. Listen to this crowd as
Jack Happlin, young man that, as I mentioned, has really

(03:13):
been adopted by this football teams scored a Touchdower.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Oh what a moment, and.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
Both benches empty. Can't I can't, I can't watch it.
It's uh and and this is the reaction, This is
the reaction I had two days ago. Mm hmm. It's

(03:58):
just special. It's just different. Here, I composed myself. Lucy

(04:20):
Chapman here being absolutely no help to me.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
I thought it. I thought about jumping in and saying something,
but anything I say would.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
I just needed to inject a bit of normalcy by
taking an unnecessary shot at my friend Lucy Chapman. All right,
We had an opportunity here on the radio station to
talk to some of the guys who were involved with
that and did like a full day radiothon for the

(04:50):
Team Jack Foundation. This would have been I don't know,
a decade or so ago, maybe not quite. And here
are some of the voices that you heard on that day.
Raska center offensive lineman Spencer Long on that moment and
being in the huddle looking at Jack.

Speaker 5 (05:08):
I mean it was really just you know, running down
and and enjoying the moment with Jack. I mean, we're
all that was. That was a pretty special moment, and
it really was kind of heartwarming and really put things
into perspective. You see, to see him have so much
fun doing that, you know, kind of makes you, you know,
put you in your place and humbles you a little bit, saying,
you know, there's more important things in life and than

(05:29):
what you've got going on in your life. And you know,
spring practice might be hard, but there's some things that
some people have to go through that are much harder.
And it's just it was a really touching moment.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
You had a unique perspective on that run. You were
there in the huddle. You got to look in his eyes.
What what was Jack looking like at that time?

Speaker 5 (05:47):
Uh, he was a I think it was a mix
of excitement, surprise, confusion, and I don't know he was
he seems so eager to to to perform. I don't know,
he's like he's taken construction. Well, he was just pumped
to get the ball and start running. And he really
it was almost like he was determined to score and
he had a look of intensity in his eye.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
I loved it. Center Spencer Long there on that moment
in the twenty thirteen spring game. My gosh, coming up
on twelve years ago and Jack, which I failed to
mention here in case you don't know, he grew up
to become a nineteen year old who went to college
who wanted to be a lawyer like his dad. His

(06:28):
dad died of brain cancer about four years ago, almost
four years ago, Andy Hoffman, you'll hear from him in
a second. And yesterday we learned the Jack, at the
age of nineteen, died after his lifelong battle, short lifelong
battle with brain cancer. Back to the former Huskers who
were there that day, Wide receiver Jordan Westercamp, Yeah, we
kind of.

Speaker 6 (06:48):
We had an idea that, you know, that's what we
were going to do going into it. And yeah, I'll
never forget that, you know, watching that, I'll never forget that.
It was an unbelievable moment for for Nebraska and just
to get out that awareness for Team Jack and pediatric
brain cancer. Yeah, it's it's been unbelievable to see how
Team Jack has grown over these past five six years.
And like you said watching Jack Row and you know

(07:10):
Serting now you know, just running that football on the fields,
and now he's actually playing sports, and it's it's unbelievable
how much he's grown and how much his whole organization
has grown. Andy does a fantastic job spreading awareness and
and you know, getting out all this information to people.
It's been fantastic. And I knew from the start that
I wanted to be involved, and I wanted to help
out as much as I possibly could, Me and my
entire family. You know, each year my family goes to

(07:32):
the team jack out and we have a fantastic time.
We enjoy being around you know, all those families, all
the other kids affected by it, and it's the least
we can do.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
So here's how this started. K E TV News Watch
seven has a great story as of yesterday where they
talked to Jeff Jamrog. Jeff Jamrog is the current head
football coach at Midland University, but at the time he
was the assistant Athletic Director UH and director of football
Operations for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, and I don't know how

(08:04):
he ended up getting in contact with the family. Rex
Burkehead may have started that and introduced the family to Jeff.
You'll hear from Rex in just a moment. But it
was Jeff Jamrog that went up to coach Nebraska head
football coach Bo Polini at the time and said, what

(08:28):
do you think about letting this kid, the seven year
old kid run the football in the spring game? Coach Polini,
I don't know, We'll see how it goes. So we're
in the game and it's the fourth quarter and Jeff
Jamrog tells KAE TV News Watch seven that Polini comes
over to jam Rog and says, go ask that kid's dad,

(08:52):
like how long he can run? And Andy Hoffen said,
as far as you need him to. Kids got boundless.
Sandergie's feeling good today, give him the rock, basically, and
so it was a sixty nine yard touchdown run and
it was good Bo Polini basically. Jamrock says, it was unscripted.

(09:17):
We're thinking about maybe doing something. We weren't sure what
we're gonna do, and Polini is like, put him in
at running back and give him, have Martinez hand off
to him. Carl'll tell your defense not to flatten this kid.
So that's what Jeff Jamrock said. He kind of pitched
the idea the night before that spring game in twenty thirteen,

(09:39):
and they weren't sure what it was going to look like.
As you heard Matt Davison say, there Jack was wearing
number twenty two. He was a big fan of Huscar
running back Rex Burkhead, who told me a few years
back how he got started with the Hoffman family and
the Team Jack Foundation.

Speaker 7 (10:00):
Uh, the Life School's director at the University of Nebraska.
He had contacted me one day saying, Hey, there's a
family you know from Nebraska whose kid was just diagnosed
with the Inafferattle brain tumor, and uh, you know, they
don't know how much longer he's got and he's got
another surgery coming up, and was wondering if you could

(10:21):
meet with them and have lunch with them one day,
And I said, sure, absolutely, and you know, we ended
up having lunch and gave him a little tour of
the stadium as well, and uh, just kept in touch
after that, you know it wanted to see how Jack
was doing and you know, how everything was going on
after and uh, you know, Coach Polinia, I kind of
had asked him one day. I was like, hey, little

(10:46):
boy and his family had met the other day. You know,
it's okay if they come out to their practice, because
at the time we had practice closed off, and he's like,
he said, absolutely, no hesitation. Yeah, bring them out, give
me their names, and we'll put him on the list.
And so yeah, that's kind of where it all started.
They came out to practice and then you know, then

(11:07):
it was the Ohio State game where he had the
big comeback and I think, you know, the TV announcers
did a big thing on Jack and his family, and
so yeah, that was the beginning.

Speaker 3 (11:19):
Of it all.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
As Rex Burkehead talking about how this association got started,
one that even at one point culminated with the Hoffmans
and mister Burkehead going to meet the President of the
United States, Barack Obama at the White House.

Speaker 7 (11:35):
It was unbelievable. You know, the family was very gracious
and kind enough to in buy me to come to
White House that day with them, and you know, it
was awesome. We talked to President Obama for probably about
fifteen to twenty minutes and he's talking about some of
the cancer programs he was implementing, and just an unreal experience.
You know, growing up he always kind of dreamed about

(11:57):
going to the White House and wondering if you ever
get that up Tundy, And yeah, it was. It was unreal,
and you know, it's just very special to be a
part of that.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
Run from the spring game won the ESPN sp Award
I think for the best Sports Moment of the Year
twenty thirteen. Burke had talked with us about that run.

Speaker 7 (12:17):
It was awesome.

Speaker 3 (12:19):
You know.

Speaker 7 (12:19):
The night before the spring game, Jeff Jambrock. Jam Rock
had called me up asking, you know, if Jack what
they thought about Jack, you know, scoring a touchdown the
spring game? The next day, They're like, you think he
would want to do that? Like, yeah, he's a he's
a boy from Nebraska who wouldn't want to do that.
So yeah, they made it happen. And I I remember

(12:43):
staying on the sideline video in it, recording it the
whole time, and I mean it was It brought tears
in my eyes. I know a lot of people's eyes
in that stadium that day. It was this unbelievable and
very special to be.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
A part of.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
Rex burkehead talking about his memory of that day. I
can't imagine what he's going through. I know that he's
has been close to the family and the foundation and
had a bit more of a heads up, I'm sure
than the rest of us that Jack wasn't doing as well.
I talked with the executive director of the Team Jack
Foundation a few months back, and you know, it always

(13:20):
kept in touch with her throughout the years. After Andy
Hoffman passed away, she ended up being the exec director
of the Team Jack Foundation. And they were really making
a big push here this past fall for donations, and
it felt it felt different. And you know, some years

(13:40):
we do a little bit more than others here on
the radio station, especially the time when you know, we
do our annual stuff for the open Door mission and
all the rest of it. So they said, we're kind
of doing a real special push here want you guys
want to be a part of it. And it just
felt different. I don't know, And so I asked her,
I said, how's Jack doing? And she said, he's taken
a turn. You know, because for a while there, all

(14:03):
the news was about Jack's condition was great, He's going
through high school, getting treatments and was doing great. A
false sense of security, I guess. The craziest thing for
so many of us was that his father ended up
getting brain cancer, dying quickly. This was about four years ago.

(14:26):
A few years before that, he was a guest on
this radio station talking about his son.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
He was five six wings diagnosed, and so he he
you know, he doesn't have a lot of memories probably
of you know, not having a brain tumor not having
to take you know, twenty fourths a day, things like that.
But you know, Jack is a tough kid. He's he's
a you know, we're a rural family, and so he

(14:54):
kind of has that lunch bucket mentality. He scroll per
sleeves and do what needs to be done. And you know,
he's he doesn't mind Dad ask him to do and
he's just he never complains. He's just a really good kid.
And you know, these kids get diagnosed at such young
ages and so it just becomes part of their life.
It's their normal, and there is they don't know other normal,

(15:16):
and that's kind of where Jack's at.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
Andy and the Hawpin family set up the Team Jack Foundation,
not to help Jack, but to be a part of
something bigger for kids like Jack who were battling pediatric
brain cancer. And my gosh, the the cases, the number
of cases we have here in Nebraska, are. They're astronomical.

(15:40):
I don't know. I don't know, but you know, when
it comes to being there for these families, that Team
Jack Foundation carries on and will for our lifetimes if
you're so moved today. Team Jack Foundation dot org is
the website. Team Jack Foundation dot org. Range of emotions

(16:02):
on this program, and my apologies because there were so
many emails and there's another one that pops up. I'm
just any email that seems to have a subject about
Jack Hoffman is just getting deleted right now or hidden.
I can't, I can't, I not during the radio show.

(16:25):
I will read them all later, and I'm gonna sit
at my desk. I'm gonna have a bottle of wine
and i'm gonna pour myself a nice bath. I got
a bathtub in my office, and I'm gonna read your emails.
I'm just gonna have a good cry.

Speaker 4 (16:39):
So we all need that one.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
So your emails will be read later. I can't do
it now, Lucy. You send me a nice text from
a friend of yours. I saw the first line deleted it.
I'll read it later. But I know that a lot
of us are feeling it, and we're we're feeling it together.
This is this is where we hang out here. We
have a little used slogan here on this radio station

(17:04):
that goes something like this news radio eleven ten kfab
will be your well informed, trusted friend with whom you laugh,
cry and get through the day together. Prefer the laughing.
We try and do more of that. But you know,
when we sit here and experience real life together, it's

(17:28):
all of it, isn't it. You know what helped kind
of shocked me back to all right, you can't just
sit here and cry on the radio for the next
two hours. You've got to, you know, find a different
speed here this morning. You know what helps shock me
back to that Lucy in the inbox. Here, not only
do I see your emails, I also get missives from

(17:51):
various promoters of things, including there's one particular group with
whom I work where a lot of the voices anytime
they know, they're like, all right, we have someone who
was very popular in the eighties or nineties who wants
to promote something they're doing today.

Speaker 4 (18:11):
But we can't tell you their name.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
No, no, they'll tell me. They just know, like, all right,
we have someone who was popular in the eighties and
or nineties. I know that guy in Omaha will put
them on, and it's just like, absolutely he do. Yeah,
it does. It's like Sheena Easton, sure whatever when she available.
You know, it doesn't, it doesn't make any difference. The
guy that played the triangle for Flock of Seagulls, that's

(18:33):
that's cool. Let me know when he can come on.

Speaker 4 (18:35):
So people love that about your show.

Speaker 1 (18:39):
We just got a huge one here in the inbox.
I was like, oh, yeah, that'll be awesome. I'd love
to talk to that guy. I impersonate him on the
radio all the time and he has some you know,
kind of Nebraska like roots. And then I looked at
the date that he was available. I'm like, no, I'm out.

(19:01):
I'm taking my last few days of January Christmas vacation off,
which I've done the last few years. So I'm not
gonna be here on January thirty first when Craig T.
Nelson wants to come on this show. To Craig T.

Speaker 4 (19:13):
Nelson, I'll tape it and you can play it when
you get back the coach.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
You can't. Oh last year or the year before. Same
thing as like I'm out of town. And they emailed me.
It must have been I think it was two years ago.
I'm out of town, gone for a few days, and
they emailed or called me and said, oh, hey, David
Spade wants to come on your show on Friday. I'm

(19:41):
like in Texas, I'm not here. Well sorry, that was
like any other time.

Speaker 4 (19:48):
No, all right, fine, Oh so they don't really want
to work with you.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
Well the show was in Omaha that night or the
next night or something. So yeah, I got a up
going out of town. But people love when Glenn Beck
is on in this time slot. So some people, some
people can't tell the difference. Uh So I got that.
That kind of shocked me back to some semblance of normal.

(20:14):
This morning. It's pulling Craig T. Nelson out from under me.
I love doing that line from Poltergeist. You move the
body sitting you up, but you didn't move that. Wait, no,
I screwed it up.

Speaker 8 (20:29):
You move the headstones, but you didn't move the body.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
You just move the headstones. You just move the headstones,
like that's how often can a guy do that at
work and not be dragged out by security? I can
do that was so far, so far? And then I
got an email from my bank. Oh no, no, this

(20:56):
is so dumb. Here, I'll tell you about this.

Speaker 9 (20:58):
NeXT's radio eleven to ten kfab Fox News Update here
in just a moment.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Oh, don't worry. We'll talk about the president's speech last night.
But I can't go from talking about Jack Hoffman too.
And I'll tell you another thing about this president. You know,
there's got to be a buffer Governor DeSantis. You know,
he's everyone's leaving Florida, right, They're all going to work
in the Trump White House. They're going to have a

(21:26):
serious population problem in Florida because everyone's going to d C.
And as as elected officials leave Florida, Governor DeSantis has
to replace them. Marco Rubio was tapped by President Elect
Trump to be Secretary of State. Great pick love Marco Rubio,

(21:49):
and that opened up an opportunity for Governor Rod DeSantis
of Florida to appoint someone to fill the vacated seat
of Marco Rubio and start up a series of elections
kind of like we saw here in Nebraska after Ben
sass left and then it was a special election, the
appointment of Ricketts and a special election. Then you got
to fill out the rest of the term. So like

(22:10):
Pete Ricketts has to be voted in to the Senate
seat like every Tuesday for the next couple of years
or something like that. Same thing. Now in Florida. Now,
what was interesting about that is where did Ben Sass
go after leaving Nebraska. He went to Florida. So when

(22:31):
Rubio went to d C, I texted Ben Sass and said,
how convenient Governor DeSantis needs a senator. You're in Florida.
The former Nebraska Senator, Ben Sass accused me of and I,
quote day drinking unquote. I said, that's not a denial.

(22:53):
So a moment ago, Governor Ronda saidus of Florida picked
to fill out the rest of the Senate term of
Marco Rubio. Joe Biden, what do you believe that? No, well,
he's got some time on his hand.

Speaker 4 (23:08):
He does have some time.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
No, it wasn't Joe Biden and it wasn't Ben Sas.
Ashley Moody say it with me. Who Ashley Moody is
the current Attorney General of Florida. Ashley Moody is tough
and competent. Ashley Moody is going to give Democrats in

(23:32):
Washington in the United States Senate a handful, fearless and intelligent,
and she just has that kind of look on her
face like when you're talking to her. Not that I've
ever sat there and talked with her, but in seeing
conversations with her, she has that look like if someone's
trying to scold or pin her down or something like that.
She has the Sarah Huckabee Sanders look. It's a look

(23:55):
that says, I'm ready to go with my answer. I'm
actually gonna answer your question. You're hate my answer, but
in the meantime, the fact that you're even talking to
me is a waste of my time. And the look
on my face will tell I give you, yeah, the
look on my face will tell you. So that's Ashley Moody,
next editor from Florida, just appointed by Governor DeSantis to

(24:17):
fill out the rest of Rubio's Senate. See. I don't
know when Rubio was last elected. I don't know if
he was re elected in November or two years ago
or four years I don't know what. I don't know
what part of that term he's in, but she'll be
in there, and my gosh. In two thousand and six,

(24:38):
Ashley Moody became the youngest judge in Florida thirty one.
She's forty nine. Now, good lord, she's about my age,
and I'm just sitting here watching my dreams get smaller,
and she's going on to the US. Do you do
that anymore? Was there a period in your life where
you were doing that? You're measuring yourself by people who

(24:59):
were about your age, who were accomplishing a lot more
than you were at that age.

Speaker 4 (25:03):
No, I only measure myself by women who are skinnier
than me. I don't care about accomplishments.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
Maybe it's a maybe it's a guy thing, maybe it's
a me thing. For a long time there I was
like in my twenties, maybe in my thirties, I was
measuring myself against guys who are my age, who were
accomplishing I think more in their lives, like really important
accomplishments than I had. And not that I feel like

(25:33):
I haven't done anything with my life. This is the
part where I'm looking for someone to go, yeah, Scot,
you're great, you know, but that's not and that's not.

Speaker 4 (25:43):
Gonna happen somebody in there, Oh, oh, you're right, And
I cannot keep interrupting.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
This is the part I'm looking for someone to film
me full of Oh, Scott, you're doing great, Hello, Hello,
and scene.

Speaker 4 (26:03):
I'm sure that any of your former classmates high school
and college, they would be I'm sure they are very
proud of the accomplishments that you've made. I think my
friends are that I went to school with were proud
of my accomplishments.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
I think a couple do hate me.

Speaker 4 (26:17):
Some they couldn't care less.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
Some once I became an evil conservative talk radio host,
defriended me on Facebook and I'm like, Hey, you're coming
to the reunion. Don't talk to me. Okay, hope to
see you in July. But I don't do that anymore.
You know, at this age, in my late forties, here's
here's how I measure myself against people my age. And

(26:42):
usually it's like someone dies and I'm like, well, jeez,
he's my age. He just died.

Speaker 4 (26:47):
I do that.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
Sorry. That's that's where I am now. So I found
out last night I've been stealing money from my son.
What my son's fifteen high school freshman. His older sister
got a similar Christmas present a few years back when

(27:10):
I think she was about the same age, and that
was a checking account with a debit card, because frankly,
it's just a lot easier if you know, my son's like, oh,
after school before our basketball game, the team's going over
to joint and I don't have any money. Can someone

(27:32):
drive here to Chipotle or whatever and give me ten bucks? No,
I'm not going to drive across town. But I can
go into my bank app and I can transfer some
money to his account, and I can also look at
his account to make sure he's not spending all the
money he does have on nothing but basketball shoes or whatever.

(27:53):
So I did that for my daughter a few years back,
and it was super handy. So I go into the
bank and do the same thing here for this Christmas
for my son and say, Merry Christmas. You're getting money
for Christmas. Took him a while to wrap his brain
around this, especially since he had some cash and he

(28:14):
took it into the bank and he gave the bank
teller some money and then left. And he didn't have
a card because you know, they got to set up
the account and then they got to mail him the
card and you got to activate the card. So he
walked him with money, and he walked out with no money,
which I was constantly borrating, like, you know, dude, you
just got took. Like what do you mean, Like, well,

(28:36):
you walked in there with one hundred bucks, right, yeah,
how much money do you have now? Oh? Dude, yeah,
you got tooked.

Speaker 4 (28:43):
Welcome to adulthood, yep, that is every day for the
rest of your life.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Or, as my son refers to it, adultery. It says,
some serious adultery. Right now, he's learning how to drive.
He's got a debit card of adultery. As my son,
it's funny. He knows it's not the word, but he
now enjoys using it because I laugh every time, not

(29:10):
as funny when I say it. My wife checks on me,
what are you doing today? I'll just work in and
I got to deal with this bank issue. You know,
just a lot of adultery that has happened. By the
way that conversation, my wife said what are you doing?
Because she was trying to reach me, trying to reach me.
Finally I called her back and I knew that I

(29:31):
was really pushing it that week, and she says, what
are you doing? And I said, I'm cheating on you.
She goes what I said, I am? I am with
my mistress, and I am cheating on you. She's like,
you're golfing, Like, no, no, no, I swear I'm not.
I was golfing.

Speaker 4 (29:49):
Is the greatest thing I've heard you say. That's funny,
hey you.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
So I set up my son's debit account, and I said,
I want this the same way as we did for
his older sister, and that was where I can you know,
transfer money into the count I can get it on
my app and so forth. So somehow I end up
like getting on his account and we both get a

(30:14):
new debit card. And I thought, well, that's weird. I mean,
I know why he got a debit card. He's ever
had one, Why would I get one? Then I looked
at my current debit card and it expires the end
of next month. I'm like, oh, well, what a what
a coincidence? Right right? So I shred my debit card.
You see where this is going?

Speaker 8 (30:33):
Yep?

Speaker 4 (30:35):
I just want to know if he charged the interest.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
Last few days. Go get some lunch, get some gas.
So my son is having a hard time, like he
can't get on the app. It won't recognize him because
it's it's waiting for my Social Security number because apparently
I'm the primary on the account, and it's like my
wife and I have the same you know, checking accounts,

(30:58):
so we each have our own debit card and the
same thing. Apparently my son and I are married to
each other, and I've been drawing from his account the
last few days because I'm like, this is weird. So
I typed in all this stuff online, all this stuff,
and it said you got a balance of like eight dollars.
I'm like, what have you been spending your money on?

Speaker 3 (31:19):
Dad?

Speaker 1 (31:19):
I swear I haven't. I only we checked it out.
We tried it out. He drove me to Sonic, he
got a slushy, he used his card. It was three dollars.
In some sense, that was the first charge in what
we thought was the only charge on his account. It wasn't.
He's been to this place for lunch, that place for lunch.
He got gas. I'm like, what are you doing? And

(31:40):
then I thought like, oh, his his identity has been
stolen right out of the gate. This's gonna be a
huge mess. Until I called up and I'm talking to someone.
He's like, we got a charge a day for thirty
nine dollars at pitch. I'm like, oh, I took our
friend Kyle the videographer to lunch yesterday at Pitch and
the charge was like thirty nine do like, oh, I

(32:01):
think I know who's stealing your identities. Son. It's your dad.
He's like, dad, what dude? Bruh, bruh. So I'm in
the doghouse with my fifteen year old son.

Speaker 4 (32:13):
Why I would have just looked a him and said,
that's right, Yeah, you owe me, you owe me? Yeah,
fifteen years.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
All the times I've been driving you around, sixteen sixteen
almost No, he just turned fifteen three months ago, right,
two months.

Speaker 4 (32:30):
Ago, So fifteen years payment, right, Yeah, I'll keep it.

Speaker 1 (32:34):
I'll be taking it one gas tank at a time.
So I gotta get that figured out, all right? Coming up?
Our president gave us a farewell address last night, which
is amazing because he's got also a speech plan for
this afternoon. How can we say goodbye if you won't
go away?

Speaker 9 (32:54):
Scott Bores News Radio eleven ten, kfab if this is
your childhood?

Speaker 10 (33:01):
On into the line up in his French, stoppering Josh
the bit outside. He tried the corner and missed all
four wall eight. Loan On has walked the bases loaded
on twelve straight pitches? Boy, how can these guys layoff
pitches that close?

Speaker 4 (33:20):
And this is your radio show.

Speaker 1 (33:22):
If that's not your childhood tory, we're here for you too.
Piers Scott Boorheaves on news radio eleven ten kfab tried
the corner and miss Classic. Bob Bucher is the announcer
from Major League Heywood leads the league in most offensive categories,

(33:44):
including nosehair. This guy sneezes. He looks like a party favor,
looks like I'm in the front row. Bob Uker was
an unaccomplished baseball player who turned the fact that he
was not great at baseball into a career sure of
being someone who admitted he wasn't great at baseball. Whether

(34:05):
it was mister Belvidere, uh right, he was on? Was
it mister Belvidere or I sometimes one was mister Belvidere,
or was it the.

Speaker 4 (34:21):
I think Belvidere is sorry to look this up.

Speaker 1 (34:24):
Or you know, the Miller Light commercials or was it
bud Light. I don't know. It's all fuzzy to me.
I just know that Bob Uker as Harry Doyle, the
announcer from Major League will always be one of the funniest,
most easily quotable things of all time. Just a bit outside.

(34:48):
Even if you haven't seen that movie, you know that
quote and you probably use that quote. Bob Yuker passed
at the age of ninety. Don't worry. I uh yeah,
looking this up.

Speaker 4 (35:04):
He's one of those actors that when they pass away,
you say he was still alive.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
It's true.

Speaker 4 (35:12):
I thought he died a long time ago.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
But that's the I mean, like I said a moment ago,
I don't remember what TV. Yeah it was, mister Belvidere,
And like I couldn't remember what TV show he was on,
even though I watched it. It's just like I don't
know the brain it did. It fizzes out every once
in a while. They could have told me Bob Buker

(35:36):
just died at the age of ninety, I'd have been like, wow, okay.
They also could have told me, I remember when Bob
Bucker died fifteen years ago at the age of seventy five.
I would have said, yeah, I don't. I mean, what
do you do right? Milwaukee Brewers Radio broadcast since nineteen
seventy one, which he did for the next fifty four years.

(36:00):
Is that true? Does that math work out? Yeah, ninety
seventy one fifty. Yeah. He finally retired just a few
years ago, and Bob you Ger passed at the age
of ninety. New research story from CNN. New research suggests
that the risk of developing dementia is substantially higher than

(36:21):
previously estimated, which will put a burden on the United
States population dealing with the more than two in five
people over the age of fifty five. And if you
can't even get close to what percentage that is, then
maybe you're in trouble. Let's say they're saying about forty
two percent of Americans will develop dementia in their later

(36:44):
later years. And the worst part about all of this, lucy,
is that they can't all be president of the United States.
I mean, only one person can hold that job at
a time, and we're talking about as.

Speaker 4 (36:59):
If it has for the last four years been the case.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
We're talking about like a million people a year being
diagnosed here in the decades to come, and they can't
all be president. So I don't know what we're gonna do.
I don't know what we're gonna do. By twenty forty,
the year twenty forty, all baby boomers will be at
least seventy five years old, the age after which dementia

(37:26):
diagnoses are found to increase substantially.

Speaker 4 (37:30):
So this is just a numbers game, that's all this
is because you have more people that are aging out
that are going to be that age. So yeah, of
course the numbers are going to increase.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
Well, when fewer and fewer people want to go into
age appropriate healthcare in situations like this, then who's going
to be like I, Like I said, they can't all
end up being president of the United States. Who's going
to take care of these people? You know what? We'll
worry about that in twenty forty sounds like we've got

(38:05):
fifteen years. Speaking of the President of the United States,
how can we say goodbye to you if you won't
leave farewell addressed to the nation. Last night, I took
a look at the Fox News lineup of all the
speeches they're going to carry throughout the day, and they said, Yeah,

(38:27):
here's what's going on across the country. You got this
hearing going on Capitol Hill, you got this update out
of Los Angeles, and then we've got President Biden going
to make a speech this afternoon, Like what he just
made a farewell speech. You still got a few days
left in office. You can't have one foot out the
door already. We need you to negotiate this whole Hamas

(38:50):
Israel ceasefire that you said was your idea because you
laid the groundwork for it back in May. Let's see,
it's January, mid January. I did that. Remember when I
did that, I got the I told these guys, hey,
you better come to the table here. I told him
that back last spring. It took them a while, but

(39:10):
they finally came to the well. Amazing right before Trump
gets in office, Trump who told Hamas, if you don't
release the hostages by the time I'm sworn in, you'll
all be dead. Finally, with just hours to go until
that line in the sand, Hamas is like, you know what,
maybe we should release some hostages. Here's the cold water

(39:33):
on this story. Though, neither Biden or Trump should start
any kind of victory lap on this peace in the
Middle East. Yeah. When I put it that way, you're like, oh, yeah,
it'll never happen. No, it hadn't happened under any president.

(39:54):
It's not gonna happen under any president, as long as
you've got many after maniac being born and raised to
go and blow up innocent people, you're not going to
have and you've got a stated purpose by the other
side to say, if you kill us, we'll kill you
and your family and everyone in your neighborhood. Okay, this

(40:18):
is how it's been our entire lives. This is how
it'll be for the rest of our lives. So, you know,
for either Trump or Biden to say, like, hey, look
at this potential ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, and how
did that go? Last night? More war fighting, shooting Hamas

(40:41):
ended up like parading through some of the streets of
Gaza saying, yeah, we won. Israel gave up. These guys,
don't They don't get I don't know what they're angling for.
Trump will root out these guys and kill them. He
will be a much stronger partner for Israel. But we
know that there's just more and more maniacs strapping bond

(41:04):
of themselves right now and setting a trigger a detonator
to go off sometime on Tuesday. You know, they don't care.
These people are crazy. They're absolutely crazy, and it's going
to be that way. Forever. I mean, even Netanyahu himself,
Prime Minister of Israel, said let's just all calm down
on talking about a ceasefire. Kind of dumb to watch

(41:28):
Biden and Trump each take credit for the deal. They
asked Biden yesterday, how much credit would you give to
the to Trump and his team for assisting with this?
And Biden goes, are you joking? Is this a joke?
Is that supposed to be a joke.

Speaker 4 (41:45):
That Actually I did see, I see I saw that.

Speaker 1 (41:48):
Yeah. The reporter said, who deserves credit for this? Mister President?
You are Trump? Biden turns around, Is that a joke?
I like his whisper, would like my buddy texted me
last night. I'm gonna miss his whisper. They won't pay
their fair share. Uh yeah, I said, it's not a steely,

(42:09):
determined whisper like Clint Eastwood. Is that a joke? You know?
That's like that gets your attention. Biden's like, this won't
pay their fair share?

Speaker 4 (42:23):
So well, he will live on in the White House.
In sound bite, so we'll have that.

Speaker 1 (42:29):
Well, I've got a SoundBite from last night's speech. Here's
the President talking about right after the American people in
this democratic Republic engaged in a free and clear election
where we told Biden specifically, Republicans and Democrats told him
last summer, not you, and then in November they told

(42:49):
his vice president and his mindset, yeah, not you either.
That was all free and clear in this democratic republic.
The voices were loud and clear, and Biden is still
talking about a threat to democracy.

Speaker 8 (43:05):
It's also clear of the American leadership and technology as
an unparalleled, an unparalleled source of innovation that can transform lives.
We see the same dangers of the concentration of technology,
power and wealth.

Speaker 5 (43:22):
You know, his.

Speaker 8 (43:22):
Farewell addressed President Eisenhower spoke of the dangers of the
military industrial complex. He warned us then about my quote,
the potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power end
of quote. Six days, six decades later, I'm equally concerned
about the potential rise of a tech industrial complex that

(43:46):
compose real dangers for our country as well. Americans are
being buried under an avalanche of misinformation and disinformation enabling
the abuse of power. The free press, crumbling hitters are disappearing,
what social media is giving up on fact checking. The

(44:07):
truth is smothered by lies told for power and for profit.
We must hold the social platform and accountable to protect
our children, our families, and a very democracy.

Speaker 1 (44:20):
In his defense, the President had three Werther's originals in
his mouth as he delivered that speech and was up
approximately four hours past his bedtime. So what temper your expectations.
I didn't realize till last night that Hithers were disappearing.
I've been looking everywhere, and turns out President Biden is right.

(44:42):
I've been looking all over the place, and I used
to see a lot more Hitto The and now I don't.
They're disappearing. I don't know where they've been. I don't
know where they've gone to. I don't know if we'll
ever see them again. Rip hither The. So the president
there is talking about the threat to democracy, and again

(45:05):
he's talking about the wealthy and the technology and social media. Huh.
I wonder who he could be talking about. Elon Musk
was celebrated by the progressive mindset of this country until
he broke with them and kind of went his own
way and decided that perhaps, really, when it comes to

(45:26):
wealth and unchecked power in this country, it doesn't matter
if your last name is Musk or Buffett or Zuckerberg
or what company you run. You will never have the
unchecked power and wealth of the United States government. It's
amazing that the Commander in chief ignored that when he

(45:49):
was talking about all this money and power. Yeah, you're
sitting on it. It's Washington, it's our government. Yet you're
gonna complain about social media. I know how to deal
with social media. I pick up my phone and I
delete an app or I stop following someone if I

(46:11):
feel like they're giving me unimportant and unentertaining mis or disinformation.
It's actually incredibly easy to do now. I know President
Biden has a hard time deleting apps on his rotary,
but the rest of us kind of know how to
deal with social media. It's not that big a deal.

(46:32):
They're like, they're gonna be they're not gonna fact check,
you mean when they're fact checking things like, wait a second,
they just the government just said that if you get
the COVID vaccine, that you can't get COVID and you
can't give COVID to somebody else. That's why you have
to get the vaccine. We found that not to be true.
We fact checked this and deleted it. Or a picture

(46:54):
of nine to eleven or the American flag or whatever
that social media just says like, Eh, this is offensive
and it's gone. They're not doing that kind of fact
checking anymore. Scott Vorhees here with Lucy Chapman, Lucy May
Chapman here on news radio eleven to ten kfab What
is your fake radio middle name?

Speaker 4 (47:15):
I think it's kind of interesting that you would pick
kind of an old fashioned name there as did you
hear Gary this morning tell me that I have the
hairdoo of an old school marm.

Speaker 1 (47:25):
Well, it is kind of pulled back with a few
wisps of the old school marm.

Speaker 4 (47:30):
Yes, from the old West.

Speaker 1 (47:31):
Yeah, but you don't understand how attracted Gary is to
old school marms. He said that with it with so
much reverence. I heard him, and I heard the reverence
in his voice. I think maybe you just took it wrong.
Lucy Jebediah Chapman.

Speaker 4 (47:50):
No, I don't have a middle name.

Speaker 1 (47:51):
You need a fake You've got a fake radio name.
You should have a fake radio middle name.

Speaker 4 (47:57):
Spider.

Speaker 1 (48:00):
I'm thinking may or Wow, Lucy Ball Chapman, you know
something like that. But Lucy Spider Chapman.

Speaker 4 (48:09):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (48:12):
Well, well, you know what, we'll uh, we'll spitball it. Well,
we'll work, we'll work shop it. We'll work shop it,
we'll figure it out, we'll see what we got. But
this is something that I think is one of the
reasons why the American people voted the way they did,
not just across America, but in places like San Francisco

(48:33):
and California, where they said, wait a second, we're not
dealing with criminals who are just going into shoplifting. I
have to go to Walgreens and have someone unlock a
cabinet so I can buy a toothbrush. This is insane.
This is an example of Biden's America. The CEO of Walgreens,
Tim Wentworth. See you wanted me to say Walgreen, didn't you?

(48:59):
Tim Wall the Walgreens. Tim Wentworth is the guy. Why
isn't it cal Wentworth's.

Speaker 4 (49:06):
Because they started with the guy from Woolworth and then
they put their names together.

Speaker 1 (49:14):
Oh, they started with the guy from wal Drug and
it was the guy in frounded Waldrug, South Dakota who
got together with mister Green Jeans and created Walgreens. It's true.
Look it up. So this guy is the CEO of Walgreens.
Tim Walgreen Wentworth and he says, yeah, we learned something
this past year. It turns out when you lock things up,

(49:38):
you don't sell as many of them. They're dealing with
what we've talked about here, and that is as more
and more places like Walgreens put everything from toothpaste to
shaving razors to feminine hygiene products behind these glass cases
lock and key, which previously had been reserved for things

(49:59):
like diamond ear rings. Remember when the stores used to
have like a really good jewelry section, or at least
what I thought as a kid was a really good jewelry.

Speaker 4 (50:08):
So what do you say? I was all locked up
about the jewelry I buy at Walmart. It's behind lock
and key.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
Yeah. Well, anyway, everything deodorant was under lock and key.
And the American people said, all right, well, I can't
go there and steal it, and I'm not. I mean,
I'm waiting around and an understaffed store with everyone else
waiting for someone to say, oh, let me unlock this
and show you something in a right guard. I mean,
this is stupid. And so the American people just, yeah,

(50:35):
I was interested in in something in an old spice
do you have that for you? Oh, we have an
excellent old spice. Sir, Please have a seat. I'll be
right with you.

Speaker 4 (50:45):
You know what else is locked up the tops for
your electric toothbrush to switch out the tops? Do you
know when they wear out?

Speaker 1 (50:51):
Replacement and replacement brush.

Speaker 4 (50:53):
Or the replacement Yeah, behind lock and key.

Speaker 1 (50:56):
I'm not fancy. I don't I use my hand to
move the toothbrush around. Apparently a Neanderthal.

Speaker 4 (51:04):
Well, at least your hand is holding a toothbrush.

Speaker 1 (51:07):
Yes, no, no, just tip of my finger. We've all
been there forgot to pack my toothbrush. Gonna have to
use old index on this one. It works kind of
especially if your skin is rough anyway. The guy at
Walgreens on your feet. Yeah, guy at Walgreens says, yeah,
it when you put things behind lock and key, you

(51:29):
don't sell as much stuff.

Speaker 4 (51:30):
Did they pay somebody for that study.

Speaker 1 (51:32):
Yeah. People decided to buy it all online and have
it shipped mailed or drone carried to their front door,
and people stopped going to Walgreens. I had to kind
of put away your emails throughout the morning because the
show started off just after nine o'clock with a tribute
to a nineteen year old kid who in nineteen years
and sixty nine yards touched our hearts, Jack Hoffman, and

(51:55):
there were there were a lot of emotions during that.
So every time I looked at the emails where people
are like I'm sitting here crying too, I'm like, that's
not helping. So now I'm starting to take a look
at some of these. And a friend of ours who
I don't know if he wants me to name him
on the radio, but a notable name, even if I

(52:16):
just say his first name, says, hey, dude, I'm driving
the North Platte to speak to kids today, and you
had a great show. From Jack Hoffman to Bob Ucker,
to Joe Biden to Lucy Spider Chapman. You had me
laughing and you had me crying. So thank you very
much for that. Thanks dude, thanks for taking us with you.

Speaker 4 (52:38):
Of course catching on already, I see.

Speaker 1 (52:42):
Yeah, of course I look at that and like, what
do you mean, I had a great show. I still
got twenty minutes left.

Speaker 4 (52:49):
You just to it.

Speaker 1 (52:50):
You figure, like, yeah, I've heard you come down the
stretch a number of times. We all know you run
out of steam real quick, usually after about nine to
twenty five. But hey, sometimes you really start off strong
and let's celebrate what we got here.

Speaker 4 (53:04):
Nice of music.

Speaker 1 (53:05):
Yeah, I know. Here's Huey Lewis in the news on
kfab and I got this email from Dave sent to
Scott a kfab dot com. I've never seen this, but
what an ugly, ugly cartoon. That took me a second
to wonder why he was sending me this. This is
an editorial cartoon featuring it says the original German is

(53:30):
how this cartoonist put it. On one side, the original
German and he's got a Nazi soldier, and then on
the other side it says modern American. And it's a
guy wearing a Make America Great Again hat and he
calls this person a groomer. This guy hates Germany and
America and he's a Pulitzer Prize winning editorial cartoonist. And

(53:56):
his name is well, his name is not anyone associated
with Omaha. I hesitate to even throw that name out
there because someone listening with half an ears and be
like that guy got arrested for this. You're like that, no, this, Well,
I'll tell you the guy's name is. Guy's name is
Darren Bell, Pulitzer Prized winning America Hating editorial cartoonist was

(54:20):
and he's he's referring to Trump supporters as groomers. I
guess like somehow they want to be involved in child smut,
that kind of stuff. And why am I telling you this?
Because this guy was just arrested with child smut on

(54:41):
his computer device. He'll have his day in court. Gross? Gross? Gross?
Am I the only one who drives around Omaha and
notices this? Don't answer you, don't out, don't ask ye,
don't sorry, don't answer that. Actually I have a couple

(55:04):
of what happened to that story updates here for you
about driving. But first something that maybe I'm the only
one who notices and don't tell me. Oh, it's a skunk.
I know what a skunk smells like. I drive around
and at least two or three times a week it

(55:26):
smells like the person driving in front of me is
smoking pot in their car. I catch a whiff of pot.

Speaker 4 (55:33):
Now that's what you're smelling.

Speaker 1 (55:35):
Coming from people's cars all over this town two or
three times a week. One guy about one hundred and
fifty sixth and State Street yesterday just ran a stop sign,
and now I'm taking the left and I'm behind him
and he's having a hard time staying in the road,
and the smell of pot hit me right in the face.

(55:57):
And it's not because I'm smoking pot, because you know,
I do nothing but edibles. But I'm kidding. And this
happens a lot. I'm driving to work in the morning.
It's seven o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 4 (56:10):
You need something to get easier this traffic.

Speaker 1 (56:12):
Someone's driving around smoking a fatty while driving, and that
just like you used to smell like cigarette smoke driving
around sometimes because they have the window cracked and then
you smell it. It would come into your I got the
the vent on circulation in my car and all that stuff,
so it'd smells. I smell this all the time around here.

(56:34):
I mean, is this my imagination? Is it a product
of where I live? Do I live around you know,
Snoop and Willie and uh you know and that that
crew or is this just something that's pretty prevalent around Omaha?
Is it just me?

Speaker 4 (56:49):
It's not just you?

Speaker 1 (56:50):
Scott atkfab dot com you can email via the Zonker's
Custom Woods inbox. You've noticed this?

Speaker 4 (56:56):
Oh yes, and it's the people. It smells like that
they just dumped their what do you call it, not Scooters, Starbucks.
It smells like they just dumped their Starbucks coffee right
into their vent, which is actually probably a skunk. Coffee

(57:16):
smells like skunk. It does not just Starbucks. I mean,
I don't I don't mean to single them out.

Speaker 1 (57:22):
Uh coffee, but yeah, there's weird if you think coffee
smell and I don't drink coffee, but I love the
smell of coffee.

Speaker 9 (57:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (57:30):
If you think coffee smells like skunk, some of it does,
you're getting the wrong coffee. No, are you talking about
our disgusting, old, decroded coffee pot. You're at the radio
station because to be retired, the last person to clean
that was named Lyle Bremser. It is fifty years ago.

Speaker 4 (57:49):
No, I'm saying he took.

Speaker 1 (57:50):
He took a whiff of it and said, man, woman,
and child snakes.

Speaker 4 (57:56):
There are some smells that you don't forget. I know
what a skunk smell, and I know what coffee smells like.
I'm telling you they smell very similar. I know what
weed smells like, and yes, that's what you're smelling.

Speaker 1 (58:07):
Yeah, but you just said coffee and skunk smells the same.
So now I don't know if they're very similar. I
don't know if I can trust what you're saying.

Speaker 4 (58:13):
Oh my gosh, email, Lucy.

Speaker 1 (58:17):
All right, we're just gonna watch the email and just
wait for them to come in.

Speaker 4 (58:21):
Lucy, do it? Spider?

Speaker 1 (58:23):
Leslie? Leslie wants to know what kind of spider is? Lucy?
All right? Why am I talking to you? Why am I?
Why am I?

Speaker 4 (58:30):
Why do I know?

Speaker 1 (58:31):
All Right, a couple of updates here on some local
stories involving driving around this town. I've had a few
people say what what is going to happen and when
with this? Because I think it was the other day
I was talking about how fences blew down during our
windstorm's last spring, and so many of them are still
blown down. And I don't mean like just replaced with

(58:54):
the exact same fence. I understand materials, staff, these things
take time, but you got sections of fence blown over
and still lying there in someone's yard, like a blue
into someone's backyard, and they're like, I'll just mull around it,
and they're not going to like move the section of fence.
They're not going to pay a kid to the neighbor's
not going to come over and be like, hey, Bob,

(59:15):
let me help you move that fence. Is this really
what we've come to? So every time I mention that,
I get people emailing going, what about the retaining wall
near one hundred and twentieth in Q Now that happened
last year, the retaining wall collapsed in this guy's yard

(59:36):
and starting next week the story here from KMTV three News. Now,
starting next week, Q Street between Magnolia and one hundred
and twenty second will be restricted to one lane in
each direction for the reconstruction of the entire retaining wall.
So that happened back in May due to storms. The

(59:58):
retaining wall washed out and it's been pretty ugly over
there near one hundred and twentieth and Q, just west
of one hundred and twentieth and Q. And now they
say they're gonna fix it.

Speaker 4 (01:00:09):
It takes.

Speaker 1 (01:00:10):
They said the closure will be an effect for four months.

Speaker 4 (01:00:18):
I guess it's a four more months.

Speaker 1 (01:00:20):
Yeah, being effect for four months as they're fixing this
retaining wall. Maybe if you wait for the soil to
thaw a little bit, the closure will be for four months.
Three months is just waiting for the soil to thaw. Well,
once the perma frost is gone, we're gonna come in there.
We're gonna fix that wall. That'll just take about two weeks.
But until then, and so now that we got that

(01:00:44):
story near one hundred and twentieth and Q Millard and
then I've had people say, hey, what's the update to
what's been going on? And that highway out by Bennington
where people are crashing into weird things in the road
with that guy just standing there staring at him waiting
for people to crash into stuff, What is the update
on that? I have it for you. Next, Scott voices,

(01:01:05):
this is News Radio eleven ten Kfab Scott atkfab dot com.
First of all, Bobby says, Scott, like you, I don't
drink coffee at all, but I've never thought it smelled
like skunk. I'm curious what kind of coffee Lucy is
talking about. And then Sarah says, it's not just you.
I smell this pot smell coming from people's cars around

(01:01:26):
town every day. People don't hide it anymore. It's crazy.
And this guy says, sorry, Scott, that was me smoking
the dope in my car. It's dope. Brother, try it.
I'll be emailing that guy back.

Speaker 4 (01:01:41):
Interesting audience today.

Speaker 1 (01:01:43):
As Snoop Dogg said when he did a show at Stercove,
He's like, who is that guy that gave me pot
last time I was in town? Hey man, remember me?
Remember me?

Speaker 4 (01:01:51):
That's your story.

Speaker 1 (01:01:52):
Yes. I got an update on Highway thirty thirty six
or thirty four Bennington. Highway thirty six near Bennington, and
this is on the way to the landfill. So it's
thought that people are just losing stuff in their load
on their way out there. But people are coming over
a hill, they're hitting big hunks of metal or a
bike or something, and there's a guy hanging out there

(01:02:16):
seemingly there like, oh hey, I saw you hit that.
You need any help? You want me to drive you somewhere?
And it's freaking people out. Update here from the Douglas
County Sheriff's Department. They said we interviewed a subject of interest.
A twenty two year old man in Bennington has been questioned,
but he hasn't confessed and we don't have any proof

(01:02:36):
that he's done anything but just happening to be there.
So that's the update from Bennington. But it does sound like,
as people were telling me at the time when this
was happening about a month or so ago, they're like,
we know who this is. He's an interesting young man,
so maybe he's been influenced not to do it anymore

(01:02:57):
if he was doing anything at all, don't know. Rather weird.
