Speaker 1 (00:19):
You know, if all of the stuff happening happening in
the friendly skies and uh, you know, I've taken a
few flights these past couple of years. I'm really happy
that I've never been on a flight where there is
a quote unruly passenger biting and hitting others biting. I mean,
(00:39):
I've often thought to myself when people get on the plane,
you know, they're walking by you, right, you're sitting there,
and it's like they're getting on and uh, you know,
really large individual gets on, and two thoughts for me,
I'm like, man, I hope they don't sit next to me.
And then I'm gone, I hope they don't become unruly
because I don't want to have to deal with that.
(01:01):
You know. It's like I just saw this this headline here,
and I was like, they're looking into this police and
it's it was a Los Angeles bound Delta Airlines flight
from Atlanta and oh my Atlanta, and they were, yeah,
it was an unruly passenger, so they have to actually,
you know, people get together there and restrain them. You know,
(01:23):
when people are going crazy like.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
That, I think you should be allowed to. I think
that should be airline policy. If one passenger just gets
stupid and starts doing stuff like that. Yeah, just everybody
gets a free punch.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Well yeah, as far as a free point, okay, but they.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Were seventy eight people against one looney tune.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Well, they restrain them. You know. Usually it's a couple
guys that you're gonna always lose that battle. If you
get on a plane and you don't have any kind
of a weapon, there'll be guys that are going like, no,
not today, You're not taking this plane down today. There's
a lot of people who have decided they're going to
do that as opposed to just sit on their hands
and then have somebody you know what. They also do
(02:02):
this is really interesting too. The drink cart they will
put across the walkway towards where the cabin is, where
the pilots are. They'll put that. There's a walkway there,
you know, when you get on the aircraft. That's the
front entrance, turn to the right exactly. They will put
(02:22):
that in front of and then the flight attendants will
stand there against it, and then the pilot will come
out and go to the bathroom. So they'll barricade that.
So if you're coming up, you've got an extra layer
in front of you if you're thinking of trying to
bum rush or get in there or whatever.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
They still do. Remember after nine to eleven they had
like the steel reinforced doors and stuff to the cockpit
and all that.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Is that still the case, I think, so they take
ultra precaution in that situation. I've watched it flight after flight. Man,
I'm glad they will put that drink cart there. That
thing's relatively heavy and by the way, turned sideways like
a barrier. It's not, you know, skinny like it's going
down the aisle and it's on wheels, but that would
(03:08):
actually and then you got two humans standing there, even
if they're women, you know they're going to be in
the way holding that cart in place where you can't.
You know, good luck trying to it's just going to
What it's going to do is slow down somebody thinking
trying to attack kind of a thing because when the
pilots come out of there there, they're a little bit
vulnerable while the door's open, so that's what they're trying
(03:28):
to guard against. It's interesting, but I remember the first
time I saw it, I was like, it's kind of good.
You know, it's safe.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
It's one of those things.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
I'm just glad to hear they're still doing I mean,
you know, because as Americans, we just don't think bad
things are going to happen to the extent they happen
sometimes and you get lazy and you forget all about it.
So if they're still being very you know, very I
don't want to say tedious, but very stringent in their efforts,
that makes me happy, actually, which is odd. Why is
it odd something made me happy?
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Oh you're not. You're a happy guy.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Well, when I'm around you, you make me so. No,
just kidding.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Remember twenty almost twenty years ago, I saw a Facebook
friend of mine posted this, and I I will once
in a while see that. Remember that Brian Schaeffer guy
that just disappeared. Was that ugly tuna Salona?
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Yeah, and poof, that's that's one of the weirdest things ever.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
End of March is twenty years All.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
The blasted cameras even back then, Yeah, in that campus area,
that's just that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
He was a medical student at Ohio Ohio State, went
out with friends to start a spring break. They were
bar hopping. Surveillance footage gets him entering the bar around
just before two am, and then he was never seen leaving.
How about that his parents like, I'm sure they're gone.
Well maybe not. I shouldn't assume that, but think about
(04:55):
there's never been any closu or nothing for that, just
mysterious the guy's gone. I think about that whenever it
pops up. I'm like, oh, yeah, I remember that good
looking guy. And uh, there's no reason. Like you said,
there was so much surveillance even then. Even now, I
think you'd be hard pressed. It's even more right.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
I mean you would think, yeah, yeah, that was a
weird time though. We had that. And you know, my
buddy Tony Lucio his son at the same time, you know,
close to the same time I also disappeared. He was
a Columbus police officer. And yeah, those were two very
prominent locations and yeah, young men and people around them, Yeah,
(05:39):
and then they just weren't there. And that that just
tells you know, you cannot caution your young people enough.
Even today. Man, have your head on a swivel, watch
everything around you at all times, and honestly, don't go
running around in places like that by yourself. Have some
buds with you go out with people, go out with friends,
don't be alone.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
One of our places we would go to. So we
were all like kind of a little bit freaked out
during that time. And then you know, years go by
and it's like, wow, that guy has never found They
don't even know what happened. Nothing, just poof, like you said, poof,
just there.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
A couple of years ago, I remember as somebody did
a story about that, there was some speculation that whatever
happened to him, he did not leave the place that
he was kept there, and then after all the hubbub
died down, he was removed from there. But they think this, Yeah,
I think there was some you know, possibility something happened
actually in the place, whether it was in the bathroom
(06:35):
or out back or whatever, and that that's why he
wasn't seen leaping, is because he did not leave on
his own power at that time. But I think that
was just a theory. You know, they're bouncing around trying
to figure out all this time later how this happened.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Think, if you're one of the people, even if there's
more than one, let's say that you know what's happened
to this guy, And every time you see something you're like,
I know what happened to him?
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I hope God reaches into your soul and your appendics
up through your nose. Yeah, if you know what happened
to somebody that everybody they've ever known, that loved them,
that cared about them, is in pain every time they're
reminded of them. Yep, because you don't speak up.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
So I fully expected my daughter to come flying downstairs
this morning when the tornado sirens start going on. I
thought for sure. I thought for sure she'd come running, Dad, Dad,
You know, like those are the kinds of things God lover.
She flips out when stuff like that starts happening. And
no inclement weather to speak of, But which makes it
(07:36):
even a little more ominous, because you go, is something
supposed to Are we on the cusp of something? But
then it was something that was supposed to happen. They
were testing them, felt like they went on forever.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Though they did go longer then. I think maybe they
had physical people out actually verifying the sirens were going off,
because yeah, it seemed like it was about three times
longer than the usual tornado test.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Yes, yes, I was thinking that same thing, and I
was happy that she didn't come running down. But then
I start looking on social media anybody else here in
the uh the world.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
He's been talking about this for two days on radio
and television now, letting everybody know what was going to happen.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Now, Chuck, you know that just because they've been forewarned,
people they don't pay attention half the time. And then
even if they are paying attention, they thought, well, I
thought that was some other time. I didn't think that
was supposed to be today. I thought that was you know,
it's always something something different.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
When I was a little boy, well I was young.
I was never a little but when I was young,
I think it was like in third grade or something
like that, and they were doing a test. But they
did it in the afternoon back then. But I didn't
know as a little boy walking home from school, maybe
in second grade or so. Oh no, that's so silens
are going off and I'm scared, man. I waddled my
(08:57):
little fat butt to the house as quick as I could.
Mom wasn't there, Oh no, which was really odd because
Mom was always there. I didn't know what to do. Well,
I got home sooner than usual I usually did, because
I was in hurry because of these sirens. So the
next door neighbor who was supposed to watch for me
didn't know to watch for me yet.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Because you were early.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
So I walked like a mile and a half to
my mom's friend. Her name was hort Tense. That's a
name for you.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Hortense.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Went to hort Tense's house because that's all I knew
to do, and she's, oh, baby, it was just a test. No,
I was so terrified.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Poor Chuck.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Wizard of Oz was still possibility at that stage of
my life. I didn't want to go to that wicked
witch's house.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Hortense, by the way, hort Tense that is, it's not
like you can you know, if if there's a Hortense
involved in something, you can never go. It was a
different Horntones, So, yeah, you mean Tense. I had the
wrong horn.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Say this is a names used to be cool. We
don't have cool names like that anymore. Mom had hort Tense,
and there was this old man, one of the coolest
names I've ever heard from. Man. He'd be like one
hundred and thirty years old if he's still alive. Yeah, Grafton.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Grafton is cool with an F for pH it.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Was an f Yeah, Grafton Saunders and that was a
friend of my parents. And you gotta remember my dad
was born in nineteen seventeen, so yeah, he knew a
lot of people that would be well century and a
half old at this point.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
That's like one of our upcoming quarterbacks for as Tavan
Saint Clair. I think that is a cool name.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
That's see you are.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
You are destined for greatness. If your name is Tavan
Saint Clair, you are destined for greatness. Man.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Yeah, that's why no matter where you go, it could
be like the bathroom at I hop there should still
see me somebody, the ladies and gentlemen, Tavian what they
should announce you wherever you go with a name like.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
That, you're walking in that's so funny. And uh, you
get to the Columbus Zoo some yeah, you take the kids.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I'm talking about a membership for this year because with
the kids, you know that you can't watch a panda
scratch itself enough. They love that kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
It's so great we have one. It's so great. Definitely,
peel off a couple a couple Benjamins and get you one.
It's it's totally worth, especially, I think with your situation
because having that many, if you go to the movies,
that's per head. You get it, You're you're into your
(11:27):
one hundred. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
And last time I went to it again, we took
the nineteen year old daughter, took her to a movie
she wanted to see that stupid anyway. The arena not
the arena Graham. It's something like that Lennox where he's
a recliner and you get hamburgers and stuff. But me
the queen and the princess, and it was like one
hundred and eighteen dollars I think for the three movie
tickets and eating. And I'm like, okay, so I could
(11:50):
do so much with that. And the zoo is one
of those things.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Yes, And the zoo you clearly can just go over
and over with the membership usually I think that includes parking,
so you don't have to do that each time.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Now.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
The only thing is if they they hit you up
for food in there, depending on but you can kind
of I think he can bring stuff with you. Yeah
though too because you can go in and out.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Yeah. Plus the zoom Bezy bay right next to in
the heat of summer, that would just be a God
send with all those kids.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Well you can get the combo, you know, the one
doesn't necessarily cover the other. They hit you with the
other one. But anyway, they were Over ten thousand animals
reside at the Columbus Zoo and they've been named the
third best zoo in the country. Dude, third best. Think
about him and the zoos are in the US. We've
been named third best. God loved Jack Hannah and everything
(12:35):
he's done.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Because if it weren't for him, nobody would know the
zoo was there.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
How many times have you seen him on Letterman? I
mean over and over so.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Great, I don't even know. You know, they kept everything
under wrap since the announcement that he oh yeah, he
was fading off and so forth. But you know, for
any of his friends and family, God bless him and
you guys anything else because he laid the groundwork. Yeah, yeah,
he brought some prominence to the city would not have
had without him.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
The only ones that topped us Omaha and Colorado Springs.
But yeah, we we beat out Cincinnati Zoo, which is
pretty good.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
The Cincinnati Zoo is really good. You know. Pittsburgh's is
really good too, and so is Indianapolis. We went to
that that that actually.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Is really good. A zoo in Pittsburgh. I thought they
just let people like go to the Steelers' locker room.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
See, I knew you were going.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
He knew it was coming.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
You. You're gonna do it, man. But congratulations to the
whole I watched that and Stone loves it too. We
will watch it together. The Secrets of the Zoo is
what it's called. Yeah, and it's it's Columbus Zoo. Like
Susie's on there. I think sometimes we'll see her and uh, you.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Think you can still watch Jack Judge Jungle Jack Hannah's
Saturday morning Saturday mornings. It's kind of cool to see
him back in his you know, back in his prime
and doing his thing.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Yeah, this is current. This is current day for the
most part the last couple of years. But it's it's, uh,
it's fascinating, man, because they take care of all the
animals and when they're sick. You see operations and I
love when like all the lions and tiger, like the
gorillas and stuff. It's fascinating to watch that. But congratulations
to the Columbus Zoo. Absolutely, that's really cool that we're
(14:16):
third in the nation. That is really neat.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
We talked the boss into let us go up and
do the show from the zoo one day this summer.
That would be fun.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Okay, yeah, we could do that, Like, let's go near
I love the gorillas there. I'm fascinating.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
You could do it next to the gorilla enclosure. Of course,
they'd be looking at me like, going, that's a big
son of a gun.
